From all indications,
it looks like those Jun
iors are in full swing
getting ready for an en-
chanting evening on April

The principals of East
and West I-iontgomery re
cently met to discuss pos
sibilities of joint student
privileges. During their
conference- many ideas were
exchanged but one was
finally preferred by both
men. Their suggestion is
that both senior classes
be allowed a total of five
school days during which
they may take some enlight
ening and worthwhile trips,
each school separately or
as one body if the classes
so choose. Historic New
England, Washington, D.C.,
and New York City were
three possibilities men

In order for anything
of this nature to be fea

stated that a certain per
centage of students must
plan to go. and that
number mus'c also be v/ill-
ing to make up before and/
or after any school work
missed during their
absence.
