The Sophomore class acted as hosts with the entire student body as guests. This party was in appreciation of Mr. Borough’s fine coaching job dur­ ing the basketball season, enabling Mill City to win the district tourna­ ment. Phil Carey, president of the Let­ termen’s Club spoke, thanking Mr. Boroughs for his work as coach. Carol Andreassen, president of the GAA spoke briefly and presented him with a boutonnieie. Brooks Crosier, presi­ dent of the student body thanked him on behalf of all students and pre­ sented Mrs. Boroughs with a corsage made by Frances Ward. A cake appropriately decorated was seived with punch. Games were play­ ed after which a dance was held. The curfew law in Mill City will be strictly enforced from this date on, said Chief of Po­ lice Clarence Meader. The en­ forcement of this law has been made necessary following a series of burglaries which have been committed here since the forepart of the year. Pictured above is Coach Burt Boroughs and his Mill City High Timberwolves. This team won the District 2B tournament in in Salem last week. Although the team didn’t win any honors in the State tourna­ ment, they have furnished many evenings of good entertainment for sports fans here. Those who saw them win the game here from last year’s State Champs from Harrisburg, figured they had seen enough good basketball in that one game to more than pay for their season’s tickets. Mrs. Elmer Klutke Heads New Club Pictured above, front row left to right are Coach Boroughs. Dick Crook, Jack Melting, Lloyd Ross. Ralph Jull and Del­ mar Syverson. Back row Don Ellingson, Don Lemke, Phil Carey, Brooks Crosier, Eddie Gregory and Clarence Davies. The team lost the opening game in the state tournament to a strong club from Powers. The score in that game was 68 to 48. The Timberwolves lost the next game they played in the tournament to the Enterprise Savages, 65 to 31. At a private hearing Tuesday night before Municipal Judge Donald Sheythe, parents of the youths appre­ hended in the burglaries made resti- tution to Stewart’s Grocery for the money which had been taken. En- trance to the store had been gained through ar opening in the floor of the building. Chief Meader stated Wednesday morning that all teenagers found on the streets after 10 o’clock at night would be taken to their homes and a citation to appear in court issued to their parents. He stated that if teen­ agers go to late shows, they will have to be taken home by a legal guardian or their parent*. • j GATES—A large group of ladies met at the Gates Community house, I Thursday afternoon, March 10, to establish a new Home Extension I Unit in this area.
