One does at times, you know. Then they supplied themselves with a stack of order blanks, and started out to serve the people of their com- munity by selling them magazines. Just be- fore the school bell would ring, in trooped the happy salesmen. After a day's rest at school, our salesmen were back at work again. They got a new supply of order blanks and were off on their journey to sell more magazines. After a few hours of Walking from door to door, each stu- dent was thinking of how good the ice cream would feel on their parched tongues thirstiug for victory. When the rush and roar of the inflovving flood of greenbacks began pouring in as a re- sult of the lucky salesmen, the captains had no time to waste till the tide went down. They were busy from the first sprinkle and till after the down-pour. The captains of each little outlet or homeroom, would receive their flow of money and then turn it into the head of the river Where Earl Beach, the big cap- tain, and his assistant, Mary Smith, were stationed. As the flood progressed, the sophomores, juniors, and seniors were wondering who would row to victory. Of course, the class with the best oars, the seniors, would be vic- torious. But alas, their oars bent and broke. It was chilly. A long quavering sigh escaped from the sad crew. They were sinking to the bottom. The sophomores were in the middle trying their best to keep rowing to safety. Then We looked on the opposite shore and 'there stood the victorious juniors.

We knew we could win the magazine basketball games. And sure enough, we did. This year's campaign was the greatest Cove has ever had. The grand total was 82954.37. Out of this amount the school re- ceived 81029.21, which goes into the athletic fund. This fund is used to buy athletic equip- ment for the boys and girls both of Cove High. As in the past, we set up a goal to reach. Our goal was 82475, which we succeeded in reaching and going way beyond. During the magazine campaign, we have competition between the three classes. The class which comes out on top gets a large serving of ice creamg the other two classes get a small serving. The homeroom which 55 collects the most money gets a pint for each person. In addition to prizes for the fifteen high salesmen, everyone who turns in 830 or more gets a certificate of achievement. Twenty-six certificates were earned during the 1953 carn- paign. The two high sellers were Wayne Drake who turned in 818175, and Dorothy Whet- stone who turned in 8177.35 Rooms 1, 2, 4, 5, 21, and 22, were 10076. That is, everyone sold at least one magazine subscription. Rooms 3, 7, and 25 did not quite reach the 10075 goal. If you do not sell a magazine subscrip- tion, you must sit in study hall the day the magazine games are played. The crowd was very large this year. There were 5 students and two teachers.
