to look at raising the prizes in their classes
of the fair by a fair amount - not just nickels

needlework, and junior section. Such a
move should increase the number of ex-
hibits in the Complex. Important dates for
the Society are May 16 and September 25
and 26.

March 21 with over 120 in attendance.

The dance was highly successful with
the highlight of the evening occurred when
two girls placed balloons under their PJ's

played Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach".
Also, some of the male members were
caught wearing some revealing lingerie.
