KILT CONCLUSIONS

After studying the survey sheets the Kilt staff reports that the majority of the students polled responded favorably to the idea of going steady - if not for themselves, at least for someone else.

The ninth grade boys and girls seemed to have the greatest reservations. Possibly experience had taught them the difficulties that might arise while going steady. And the eighth grade showed far less enthusiasm than the seventh grade.
