' TAX STAMP PROGRAM NETS PROFIT The Tax Stamp drive, that got underway the second six week period and extended to the end of the school year, netted a profit of approximately 3lOO0.00. In May there was a seven day campaign in the ninth grade to urge the students to bring in their stamps for the purpose of leaving a gift to the school. The amount collected for the year by the entire student body was 83j,066.79. The t0P home room was 8E with 3h373-00- Eight-E was the winner twice during the six contests. The top five homerooms were BE, SD, 7D, BC, 9E. The six week contests were won by BE twice, TB once, 9C once, and 8D once. A vote of thanks is due Miss Ward and the Student Council for directing the collection, to homeroom teachers and students who counted stamps, and to all who contributed stamps for this successful project. ---. ,.-., ,.., 4,.-.. .. ...l I..--, ,.--- gxy - gg, .-5:-' f.2- .-1 r if-g 1-g'g. .':r fir ft - V - , .,- . ,
