Qrct:11'ii-s liviicvicxc lim-ll :ind vlulizi Kliirnicli, Curtis Drive The aim in this yearls Curtis Drive had been to surpass the 353,000 goal of the last two years. However, even with the inevitable support of the Freshmen, Thorp High School was unable to top this mark, but the receipts at the end of the drive showed a respectable fE2,6T'T.49. The high Salesman for the 1953-1954 season was Bernice Butter- field with 35120, a diHicult mark for other students to reach in the future. Her prize was a beautiful Benrus wrist watch. At the end of the drive, the customary drawing' was held at which Arnold Smith claimed a handsome Benrus watch. The trophy, given to the student whose name was drawn from a pool made up of students selling over 3330 in subscriptions, went to Edward Bieno. VVith the aid of the two competent secretaries, Julia Muenich and Genevieve Guell, Thorp High School concluded another successful year of Curtis Drive Sales. lint-cliiigz: Rav Price, Fred Kcnncv.
