JR.-SR. BANQUET
Twenty-four pleased guests filed
Into the Community Home at 6:30
o'clock on Thursday evening, May
3, 1951. The occasion was the Jr.-
-Sr. Banquet in honor of the gra-
duating class of 1950-1951. The
T-shaped table was decorated with
the school colors, and the center-
piece was a globe with two minia-
ture graduates on top. Fifteen red
candles cast a brilliant glow on the
crystal water glasses. The invoca-
tion was given and the guests were
.seated. An enjoyable program was
presented, and was given a fine
finish with the speaker of the even-
ing, Mr. R. E. Drennan, Dean of
Clarendon Jr. College, and Princi-
pal of Clarendon High School. A
very nice meal was served by the
Ladies Fellowship Class of the
First Baptist Church. The Senior
Class colors formed streamers from I
the ceiling, and a green and white

DOUBLING UP—Russell, at left, and Ralph Logan, six-year-old
twins of Houston, Tex., found their double persuasion ineffective
against the double stubbornness of these twin donkeys. The boy*
needn't be too surprised at their failure, for they were up againat a
special pair. The owner of the animals stated they are the only
twin donkeys in Texas and j robably the nation.
Wayne, no broken glasses Sunday.
Could it have been the girl who
was visiting you?
Caught: Sue trying to slip a
sugar bowl at the party in Ama-
rillo Monday night.
A little later we saw Mr. Bruce
in his Mercury trying but not do-
ing so good in outrunning a Ford.
Mrs. Bruce, didn't lose your nerve
did you?
Tuesday night: It seems that we
have some pros|>ccUve tiiieves.
Could little cream bottles have
anvthing to do with it girls?
Seems: Breaking in a new power
glide Chevrolet at a very low speed
becomes very tiring. Could it be for
a good reason Marion?
Wednesday night: Very quiet!
The calm was because of a bunch
of sleepy kids wearily preparing for
a banquet.
Thursday night: All enjoyed the
Jr.-Sr. Banquet, even though one
had to come from Stratford in a
Mercury and another had to come
on crutches.
Seems people didn't believe their
<>ycs at the show after the banquet.
David, the woman hater, was with
three girls and, from rumors we
heard, they were real cozy. Some-
body had better collect their ten
