Students listen attentively as Mr. David Hall tells the story of his accident and how it might have been avoided. Miss Douglas, Mi s Forsberg, and Mrs. Avery, accompanied by Mrs. Casey, join in presenting the Christmas convocation. Interesting Convos Vary Busy Schedules Convocations, which are not only entertaining but informative as well, provide a welcome break from school work. During the year we had con- vocations about car safety, science, and vocal music, and were privileged to have the Ball State choir sing for us. The bands and choirs of Frank- ton and Summitville provided us with pleasure 10 as they performed. The auditorium was the scene of two class plays. The Night of January 16 put on by the Juniors, was a murder trial in which the jury was chosen from the audience. The scenes in 'KA Man Called Peter, given by the Seniors, ranged from light comedy to deep religion. At one of the convocations enjoyed by the student body, Frank Coleman gave a thrilling demonstration of one of his many skills. Curious students and teachers look on with amazement as he displays his ability. They are William Wright, Dennis Lester, Mike McKinley, Mrs. Wynant, Bill Weaver, Mrs. Ritz, and Glen Howard.
