One Year $ 7.00 Two Years $13 00 School Openinq Big This Year The start of school Monday will be different than any previous day in Nyssa’s history. This week will mart the opening of a brand new high school, followed in succession throughout the fall term with openings of the cafeteria, elementary multi-purpose room, vocational shops, heating plant, bus repair shop, gymnasium, auditorium and music rooms; not necessarily in the order listed. This new school opening puts a heavy responsibility on the faculty and students, because the patterns and habits started in this new environment will to some degree set future habits and tradition» The student body and senior class officers have their work cut out for them. We think it is commendable that these students, through their own initiative and efforts, have come up with a Student Code of Cooduct. We have printed it before, and we think it is worth printing again, because it sets standards to be followed throughout this breaking-in period, and the years to come. Obviously, this is not the rime for a grand opening, but it is time to start thinking about it. When all of the construction is completed, sometime near the end of the year, we should have a celebration to top anything that has happened previously in Nyssa. Perhaps because of the length of rime in planning and construction, we have taken the whole process for granted. We should soon come to the realization that not only do we have schools which rank high tn the state and area, but that we will have school buildings which can't be topped anywhere. This should be a source of great pride to citizens of this community. NTSSA HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT CONDUCT CODE 1 Mr. Padilla was bort August 24, 1945 in Lovell. Wyoming.

Nazarene Church To Show "Gospel Road The story is old, but the perspective is up-dated and brought into sharp focus by the film “The Gaapal Rand'’ to be shown on Sunday. August 29. 1976 at Nyssa Nazarene Church. The show ing will begin at 7:30 p.m. r The Youth Choir from the Latin Assembly Church will be singing at the Nazarene Church at 7 p.m., just one-half hour preceding the showing of this film. The public is cordially invited to attend this musical presen tation as well as the showing of this film. There will be no admission charge, although a free-will offering will be taken to help pay for the film. The Gaapal Read, distribu ted by World Wide Pictures, was conceived and produce! by Johnny Cash and his wife. June Carter Cash, whose desire was to tell the story of Jesus Christ in a realistic and meaningful way. The film is a unique biend of scripture-based narrative, an abundant supply of specially written songs, and a series of in-depth character portrayals, with Israel itself as the mixing bowl. Adding to the effectiveness of The Gospel Road in its endeavor to convey reality for this day are: the fascinating treatment of the Crucifixion, making this tragedy an event of significance that reaches from its own time across the years to take on meaning for ]Ebi tor Editor, The Journal: In reference to Mayor Donald Oldemeyer's letter to the editor published in last week’s paper regarding the repeal of Senate Bill 100, I would like to submit this copy of Resolution 300 for the review of our citizens.
