When the band matecri~

assemblies and will sup—

singing at the basketball
games, but not for tho
dancing afterwards, Pos—

may also give concerts

This is a real oppor~

would be very advantagous
to the whole school to
have such an organization

last year's seniors with movio stars?
Such as Ginny Tripp with Joan Crawford
ani Dick Game with Joel McCrea? We even
went so far as to compare the then in-
sienificant junior, Ducky Doy with Mick

2. Remember Joyce Murdick's class—

"Louis XIV was gcolatinec."
3. Remomber Easter vacation last
year, when Zlonilie Schreiner was prom
