Remember back in 1942 when the seniors in McComb High School gathered to start the fall term, they found that the graduating class of 1941 had destroyed the books. Searching went on for about 4 months and they were not found. Then last Saturday a fire broke out at Dwight LaRue's department store, which he has owned and operated for the past seven years down on West Main street. Immediately fire chief Thomas Wien and his assistants started carrying the valuable trunks from the basement. When a huge trunk was carried out and opened, there lay the Senior Class books. The town wanted the school to sue Mr. La Rue for concealing the books. However, Mr. Dick Walker, also a graduate of the class that hid the books, is now the principal of the school and he says thumbs down. 50 ARE INJURED IN AIRPLANE MISHAP!
