This year, elections are scheduled for Friday, May 6. Campaign speeches will be given and cheer leaders will try out on Thursday, May 5. KLUNK Dennis Campbell owns this beauty. The dent-manifested pickup is tagged as this month's Klunk of the Month. Klunk of the Month by Brace It was a nice day and I didn't mind the walk, but Dennis could have at least clued me that the machine might be a wee low on fumes, for I'd only proceeded two blocks when Dennis Camp bell's 40 Chev pickhorse failed to function. Since all three of the gas gauges read empty, I concluded an "insufficient amount of go juice." As Mel Clements, my trusty photogra pher, propelled the vehicle down the road, I sat in the cab enjoying the rustic splendor of this fine old machine. The warm April sun enhanced every dent and the rust made the pickup twinkle in the sun like a priceless jewel. I began to wish Mel would speed it up a bit (it was unbearably warm in the cab). The cab had a pleasant aroma of old gas rags, burnt clutch and oil smoke reminding me of Shakespeare's words, "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Fiendish Plot When Mel finally collapsed, I found myself stranded safely on a railroad track (a true Klunk fan always is in position for an other dent). With unswerving courage I forged on to the petrol pumps a ghastly two blocks away. When I returned with the desired substance I could not find a point at which to adminis ter the go juice. LAUNDRY & CLEANERS 1465 Siskiyou - 482-2281 In order to run for any stu dent body office, a candidate must have a grade point average of 2.4 during his high school career.

Nominations are made by pettition. Students wishing to be candidates must present a peti tion containing signatures of seven persons of the student body and the principal. The pe tition must also contain a signed statement saying that the can didate accepts the nomination. Ainsworth Was there a fiendish plot, de vised by minds bent on evil? Was this pickup to run out of gas and never serve again? While I was contemplating the possibility of fascist treach ery, Mel came to and found the gas cap to be under the seat. We had to acquire a tow, for while Mel was pushing I was listening to the radio and ran the blasted battery down. The fellow towing us got a bit rowdy and pulled the front grill off, but the ma chine finally started sounding not unlike a bumblebee in a beer can. Once the beastly contrap tion started I raced back for school and was glad to turn the keys back to Dennis. It's ve hicles like this that try men's souls. Author's note Attention!
