THIS WEEK, I have many "end
of school parlies for the stu
dents and with no theater to
fill the kids' needs, probably
more parties will be held during
the summer. A Rood idea for en

have much of an excuse to have
a party for young and old alike!
With warm weather coming
along, how about an outdoor
barbecue feed?
