Conduct of the march of dimes in Nyssa for the benefit of the local and national infantile paralysis funds aptly demonstrates the cooper ative spirit that exists as between the schools and the townspeople. The high school, with the cooperation of Ad rian, staged a basketball game in the gymnas ium last Friday night that netted a goodly sum of money for the campaign. The students, in addition to collectively giving their student body money, voided their activity tickets and paid the regular admission to the game. Even the band members and basketball players paid admission to the contest. Approximately one-half of the money rais ed locally for the infantile paralysis fund w secured by the high school through the Nyssa- Adrian game and the “march of dimes” con ducted at the contest. The students’ contribution is just another ex ample of the fine attitude exemplified bv the youngsters over a period of years. The children have been very good in assisting townspeople in financial campaigns of various kinds, and war bond drives and in assisting with entertain ments. On the other hand, townspeople have been good to the youngters in student activities, so the praise is mutual. We hope that it will ev er remain so.
