By DOROTHY a SHUPE
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON
After three days back to school,
I'm about to get spring fever with
all this lovely weather. Those
isnowy days of the past month
iseem far, fair away already. To
day, we begin mid-term tests and
I know the students will be happy
by this time tomorrow when they
will be over. Then WORK begins
for the teachers to get them grad
ed, averaged and recorded for the
firs half of the year.
Ran into Mrs. Joe Eads this
morning at the cleaners and she
said she kept up with the young
folks through this column. I guiessl
while school is in session, I doj
write more about the young folks
than about the great problems!
facing the world. When I look)
around my classes and see students
Who weren't even born when I fin
ished college it sure does make;
me feel old; But being with themj
during the school year helps keep
my youthful outlook!
Lester Norton and Gary Smith
came by at lunch to chat a bit
with me, but I think they were;
(more interested in tine girls art
my room than me. I did plant to
tell who they had been visiting at
Laurel lately, but guess 111 not)
spill the beans this time. Gary
Sams and Calvin Ball were over)
for the game last night between)
us and Harris High as were Jantea
Haynde, Daris Anderson, Wayne)
Tipton, Joey Nix, Linda Bryan,
and Glenda Bryan McDevitt, all
of the class of 1969. We lost a)
iheart breaker by 2 points, but
Robert, Calvin and Ricky looked)
good most of the time. Mallie and
Wayne did well, too, but we sure
needed 3 points.
Gee, it will soon be time for the
Heart Fund drive to start. I hope)
you have already contributed to
the March of Dimes. All of these
are good causes and we should try
to do our part in supporting their
efforbs.
OBSERVED Guess I should
mention, too, other recent gradu-
tbeg I saw last night at the game
