...encourage what he or the Faculty wants, Bender feels it a part of his job in the future to "develop a more responsible participating outlook on the part of the student."

Next year there will be three games away. If the HAA does not pay the $7,000 the band will need in order to play at these games, the organization will not offer a repeat on this season's self-reliant excursion to Virginia, which turned into a financial disaster.

...week Mrs. Melius (who has no children of her own) went back to being a housewife again. The taxpayers of tiny (pop. 53) Mount Washington, Mass, paid her $120 for her month-long vigil, and considered it a bargain. Under a Massachusetts law, every incorporated town is required to offer its citizens "an opportunity" for elementary education, or bear the cost of sending the local kids elsewhere. Parents of Mount Washington's three elementary pupils boycott the local school because the one across the state line in Hillsdale, N.Y. is bigger & better...
