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.

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
