We had a dance at the high school during the Christmas vacation and a girl from each of the three higher grades were nominated to run for queen. The Key Club Sweetheart was Darlene Iuette and her attendants werey Betty Kroeger from the Iunxor Class, and Marie Menge from the Sophomore Class. The queen was chosen by the town's people by votes . Each vote cost 14. The Key Club sportsmansh1p trophy was presented to LaPlata H1gh School because of thexr sports manship shown during the 1956 '57 Football season. As members, we would like to thank Mr. Hall, Eddle Devlin, and Bob Powell for their help 1n all things. The Senior members would like to wish the best of luck to the new officers and members , and we sincerely hope that they will profit from the work they do in Key Club 1n the years to come. ,, :Q ' , 7, S - ' ' , ' r ' uv: --www . .
