Hi there! The Senior Class’ social
life is taking on a festive air as these
lovely May days come in. Tuesday,
May 6, the seniors and their guests
enjoyed a wiener roast at Bandon, and
on Sunday, May 18, we are planning
a trip to Nags Head. (What fun that
will be. a nice long day at the beach!
Well, I can tell you more about that
next week.

to a close and exciting that we shall
soon step into a new world, our fu

marriage, it all must wait, though,

exams. Seniors are taking exami

are needed, so you’ll hear of a great
bit of cramming this week.
One of the boys who are planning
to enter the military service is Mar

White, Sr. This sports-loving senior
was bom August 6 1934. Marvin says
dating and fishing are his favorite
past times and it would be hard to
say which he loves more. Well, Mar
lene, as long as a fish is your greatest
competition you shouldn’t worry.
The Senior Class decided Marvin
was our “Cutest” boy. Next to Mar-
