When I Grow Up I Want tobe...
I want to play basketball because I
could earn some money and get a
new car. And I know the color—
that’s red.
When I grow up I want to be a
singer and make lots of money.
When I am in high school I want to
play basketball and I would like to
be on the honor roll or be a poetry
writer.

When I grow up I want to be a
pediatrician. I want to be a pedia­
trician when I grow up because I
like to work with babies. It would
be nice to leant about babies bodies
and how they grow. In college I
will study on the human body and
how to take care of babies. I will
study very hard and take care of my
baby brother and sister with my
mom more often.
1 want to be a pediatrician when I
grow up. I think it will be lots of fun
to work with the babies so I can
learn about a child’s body. I want to
do this because I want all babies to
be healthy and live for a long time.
First I will take a learning class on
how to take care of a child’s body.
Then in a couple of years I will
work very hard to be a pediatrician.

Trees To Grow In ‘Volunteer Row’ At
Glencoe Elementary School
The growing spirit of school volun­
tarism will be honored with the plant­
ing of two trees Tues., Nov. 12 at 10
a.m. at Glencoe Elementary Schoool,
825 SE 51st Ave.
Glencoe averages some 48 volun­
teers a week who handle duties ranging
from running a student publishing house
to operating the copy machine. Many
of the volunteers do not have children
in school, according to principal Tom
HE
Breuckman. And one retired neighbor
helps out at school every day.
The two Crimson King Norway
maples, which were supplied by Port­
land Nursery manager Dale Small, will
be plan ted on the west side of the school
playground with the help of three Glen­
coe volunteer coordinators. More trees
will be planted in the “ Volunteer Row’’
in future years, according to Breuck­
man.

Memory Ann Garnett, a kindergarten student at Martin Luther King, Jr.
Elementary School, gives her movie review of Walt Disney Pictures'
‘ Beauty And The Beast" to fellow classmates.
Beauty and the Beast
other openings for animated films and
ranks among the strongest limited
openings for many of the industry’s
biggest live-action blockbusters. By
way of comparison, the exclusive Los
Angeles opening of Touchstone Pic­
tures’ hit comedy “ Good Morning
Vietnam” grossed $81,609 at the cin­
erama dome (12/25-27/87). The latter
went on to gross $124 million in its
domestic release.
Commenting on the announcement,
Mr. Cook said, “ Even more impres­
sive than the outstanding box office
results that ‘Beauty and the Beast’ has
achieved in its opening weekend is the
response of the audience, which is as
overwhelming as any that I have ever
experienced. This film seems to sat­
isfy moviegoers of all ages as few
films can and our exit research indi­
cates that audiences rate this as one of
the best films they have ever seen.
Clearly, ‘Beauty’ is shaping up to be
one of the top holiday attractions for
adults as well as children and a true
milestone for animation.”
In its extraordinary opening week­
end in just two theaters, Walt Disney
Pictures’ newest animated feature,
"Beauty and the Beast” grossed an
enchanting $81,073 per screen, the high­
est per-screen average ever for a film
opening in an exclusive run prior to a
wide break. The film’s three-day gross
was $162,146, it was announced by
Richard Cook, president of Buena Vista
Pictures Distribution. With its week­
end gross of $102,860 at Los Angeles’
1,000 seat El Capitan Theater, the film
set new opening day and single day
records for the theater and registered
the largest single theater gross for any
current release. That figure also estab­
lished new records as the all-time high­
est-grossing weekend for any animated
film in a single theater and the highest
three-day gross for the El Capitan. At
the 500-seat cinema in New York,
“ Beauty and the Beast” took in a
phenomenal $59,286 over the thrcc-
day period.
The opening weekend figure for
“ Beauty and the Beast” far surpasses
