Pop, gum, candy, and popcorn were sold at all football and basketball games. Decals and pencils were sold also. The play, The Gay Deception directed by Mrs. Donald Cripps was a success. Three paper drives were organized and everyone work hard on them. The class as a whole was willing to cooperate in all projects. Much more was accomplished this year than any other year.
