We commend Mary Ellen Hockaday for the fine piano solo which she played at the Illinois High School contest at Charleston. Incidentally, she won second! Five of our number represent us on the Blue and Gold Staff and three members serve as librarians. We organized a float for the Homecoming parade and were awarded second prize. Early in the fall the class enjoyed a weiner roast at the home of Jack Creeson, This is a summary of our activities for the year, This completes the first half of our journey at M. C. H. S.
