cuts Prom deficit
No longer is the prom commit
tee harboring worries about the
$64.00 dollar deficit. Word has
been received from Mr. Selleck's
office that a member of the com
mittee has turned in money from
the soft drink concession amount
ing to $29.00. This leaves a deficit
of only $35.00 for the committee
to worry about.
This news is welcome to the
committee after the heated debate
in the last council meeting that the
money was to come either from
the pockets of the members of the
prom committee or from the fund
to send a delegate to the Student
Council convention.
