HBasin Street the senior class assembly, broke the ice of the mid-winter month, as echoes of the famous tin pan alley sounded in the ears of students. Though it might have been dreary outside, it was lively inside where fund- raising plans for a foreign exchange student in 1963-64 were boosted by a paid assembly by 'KThe Ravens, a local band. Temperatures rose and snow melted as once again January was torn from the calendar for another year.
