The Football Banquet was thoroughly enioyed by all that attended, for this year they were P.S.L. Champs. The highlight of all fall activities was the Football Banquet. On this night all the players were changed from muddy, bulky, football uniforms to smart dark ivy league suits and combed hair, smelling of Old Spice. With their dates they spent a lovely evening at Bit of Sweden in Aurora, Illinois. With a fire crackling in the fireplace and yellow candles glowing among gold mums on each table, the setting was ideal. Mr. Leroy Patterson was the speaker for the evening. Cliff McCrath was emcee, and throughout the entire meal and program kept us all laughing. Eddie Mitchell gave forth with his rendition of several hit singers and con- cluded with 'I6 Tons by Tennessee Ernie Ford, this we will never forget. Mrs. Harris read her annual poem, but this year it was even better, the team concerned was undefeated! With this thought in mind the banquet was a real success and an evening never to be forgotten. Around vacation time thoughts are always centered on Christmas. This year several students wrote and gave a one act Christmas play. Santa made an appearance and had many unusual gifts for those in the audience. He even had dignified Miss Everett on his knee when he gave her a step ladder to reach the top library shelves. After the play refreshments were served in the main building. With the first signs of spring came the G.A.A. and W Club-sponsored Box Social. This evening is always looked forward to by all. This year it was a terrific evening for both guys and gals. ALL-SCHOOL Maybe a bit tired from the hard North Shore game but nevertheless undefeated -Harry MacDonald, Gerry Gedde, Chet Stewart, Ed Robinson, and John Huffman are all ready to Wake The Town And Tell The People - WE WON!
