A passenger Harold Smith, also of Spring Grove, obtained the license number of the other car and the matter remains under investigation. A QUEEN MEETS HER SUBJECTS (Continued from page 1) with a 42 to 0 score. An unprecedented crowd es­ timated at between 2,000 and 2,500 students and friends, gathered on the field north of West campus Thursday night for the first bonfire held in re­ cent years. The senior class was judged to have gathered the largest amount of wood, giving the honor of starting the fire to Maggie Moore, class president. Another contest in connection with the bonfire was the Brown Jug competition, in which sen­ iors again were proclaimed winners in giving forth the loud­ est cheers for victory. An innovation was the fire­ works di splay at 9 o* clock which concluded the bonfire program. While murky clouds emitted a continuous drizzle on Fri­ day afternoon, courageous stu­ dents smiled their way through crowds who lined the streets to view the annual parade. Floats managed to retain most of their elegance even after mid-point in the line of march. Judges selected the Juniors to win among classes, with the commercially-inspired slogan, "Raid will kill 'em dead". Sec­ ond place went to the fresh­ men, "We'll soap'em to death." The Girls Athletic associa­ tion won first place among or­ ganizations. Following a day of rest, dur­ ing which clouds dissipated for the homecoming dance Saturday evening, couples gathered in West campus gym to see Miss Sherry Etten proclaimed queen. Her crown was placed on her head by Joann Freund, the 1968 homecoming queen. Gymnasium decorations were in keeping with a Gay '90's theme. Read your BIBLE dally and OO TO CHURCH SUNDAY DR.

SUSAN P SMITH, Notary Public (Publish 10-15-69) A Long Distance call should be fun. But it shouldn't be a scream. Ah, the modern miracle of Long Distance calling. You just dial a few numbers, wait a few seconds, and click, tick, beep . . . you've got a station-to-station hollering contest. Don't let a bad connection give you any static. Just yell goodbye and hang up. Then start all over. Whoever made the call should dial the Long Distance Operator, and tell her the problem. She'll adjust the charges for the fuzzy call, and get you a nice, clear connection. Unlike the Wooly Mammoth, the Wooly Phone Call, though rare, is not entirely extinct. So if you happen to run across one on a Long Distance call, don't just talk louder. Start over. After all, the telephone was invented to make things like hollering obsolete.
