There was a big line waiting, but after patiently waiting forty-five minutes, we pushed our way up to the ticket window and there sat Marilyn Tel- fer and Marie Elrod, They acted quite tired but were glad to see us and we talked a short time. We were sorry to hear that Don Osborn was unable to drive his car in the races today because of a minor accident in which he got his leg fractured. But we were happy to hear that he would be at the races and after looking around we spotted him on thefront row in his wheelchair with his nurse, Marilyn Moomaw, at his arm. After spending an exciting afternoon, we stayed for the evening performance. The show startedsbout 7:30 and after a number of good acts, who should come out on stage but that famous singer, John Green. His accompanist looked familiar, but we did- n't know until we looked at our program that it was Beverly Price. The act was great and it also ended the show. we were X355 tired but happy after seeing all the members of the class of Senior Class History On the date of September 3, l9k5, thirty-four Hshy-greenn Freshmen entered the building and seated themselves on the west side of the assembly.
