Money for our trip to Washington, D.C., has been raised through many activities. Last fall we sponsored a Community N every Monday night. It was held in the gymnasium. No ight nearly ad ission was charged. Basketball, ping-pong, and dancing were on the program. The seniors sold soda and fudge. Community Night was held until basketball season began. During the year our class ha s had several food sales, on each of which we have made a good profit. Money has also been raised from the Senior Play, from our share in the profits of the 1950 and 1951 yearbooks, and from our other activities during our four years of high school. Money for our graduation announce- ments, for a gift to the school, and for rental of our graduation caps and gowns will be raised when we return from Washington. At the time of writing this we were planning to go to Washington during the April vacation, taking Mr. and Mrs. Olson with us as chaperons.
