the past season Many many young people who came to the Friday night dances at St Alban hall never fully paid thcir fees for the season In fact a large number only paid 23c thus curtailing any projects or activities that the group may have had planned Should the group be able to start again they ask the parents to kindly give their youngsters the initial one dollar seasonal membership fee In one sum A membership card is Issued in exchange for the fee line But their three downs were soon over as their offensive strategy was overshadowed by the teachers defensive play At this point the students displayed a great defense and the teachers were held their five yard line Once again the students rallied for a touchdown effort This time a pass by Mike Cooper was caught deep in the end zone by receiver Joe in the dying minutes of the game The score was Terry Churchill at tempted the convert but it was blocked by the teachers stalwart defense Tune ran out and the score stood for the teachers
