CDee Skelton's boy friendb, dressed as a clown with a very long red nose, offered this appendage as an attraction to the ring tossers in lieu of the pegs. The rest of the time Rusty sold balloons and did clownish tricks to the amusement of the children present. Frances Gilbert made herself very useful both nights of the Carnival by changing folding money into silver dimes for the benefit of fun seekers at the various stands. Joyce Tyler had a gaily decorated one-man stand which offered cold drinks for ten cents. Mothers of the Seniors served hot coffee with home made cake and pie in the Home Ee rooms, also offering cakes, pies and cookies for sale to highest bidders. As a climax to this gala event, a Carnival Queen was selected by popular vote from among all girls enrolled in high school. Each dime spent entitled the spender to one vote, extra votes were five cents. Top favorites were Sue Lamb, who polled the highest Mary Stearns, and Nancy Skelton. Sue was crowned Queen of Port Byron High School amid the applause of the aud- ience by Larry Atkinson, Senior class president. Two evenings of good, clean fun, generously supported by both the high school and the community, were provided through the efforts of the Senior Class and Marian Henry, their sponsor. Gross proceeds were 5448 of which S275 were net, and will be used to purchase a much needed electric score board for use next year at basketball games--the Seniors parting gift to the school.
