Ir. and Sr. beach parties are a soaking success Rumor had it that the Senior Beach Party would be held Sunday afternoon at Fedder's Alley. The weather was great so I decided to stop by and see if anything was happening. As I walked down the dune, I could tell the party was al- ready in progress bythe screams of unfortunate newcomers who were being thrown into the lake. I could see small groups of people talking and laughing together. At one end of the beach, a group of boys was playing football, while the onlook- ing girls gossiped about their sum- mer romances. Everywhere I could hear the question, Are you going to Rogers or Elston? Some just stood around and enjoyed the re- freshments supplied by Elston class officers, while still more joined in a game of blanket toss or frisbee. As the summer sun sank low and the chill of the September evening set in, everyone could be found huddled around a roaring bonfire, enjoying a conversation with friends. But when the fire died and the beach was empty, Rogers and Elston were separate. The junior Beach Party consisted of much of the same 4 throwing kids in the lake, playing football, and talking around a warm bonfire about summer experiences. Party sponsor, Mr. Peters, enjoyed a cool- ing dip in Lake Michigan jwith a little coaxing from the juniors presentj, while everyone else just relaxed and enjoyed one of their last summer days before school began.
