JUNIOR PARTY
There will be a Junior party in

on Halloween night. The party
will also be opened to the Fresh
men boys living at Brewer, sjnce
there are so few of them. No one
will object if a boy invites a girl
to the party - not in the least!
The Juniors and Frosh will pro
vide the Halloween decorations of
black cats, witches, ghosts, and
goblins. The entertainment will
be a band or records; either way
there will be lots of dancing,
games, and refreshments, and
everyone should have a great time.
Since this is a party for the
Juniors and Freshmen only, iden
tification will be checked at the
door. The Sophomores and Seniors
should not feel left out. Next
time it will be their turn and the
Frosh and Juniors will have to
stay home.
