MR.
SORENSEN LANDSCAPES |
Mr. Jack Sorensen,
of Sorensen and Fletcher, began to landscape the
school October 26. He brought his own crews of laborers,
and several truckloads of plants, peat and topsoil.
Over the weekend, the school took
on a new appearance. Large azalea plants and a variety
of shrubs and trees we planted in a manner to break
the long, horizontal lines of the school buildings.
Mr. Sorensen volunteered to do
this work, and has given of his time, plants, and
employees. Glenridge certainly owes Mrs. Sorensen
a vote of thanks for his generous contribution.

Howard
lengthened her winning streak to 31 games October
31, as she overpowered the mighty Lion defense.
Glenridge received the kick-off but couldn't get
started. On the fourth down the Lions punted the
ball to Howard.
As the Howard offense started,
the smaller but determined Lion defense gave way.
On the Glenridge 12 yard line, Howard tailback,
Micky Merola, chugged through the line to score.
Dickson plowed up the middle for the extra point.
In the second quarter the Lion
defense held Howard. But several minutes after the
third quarter began Howard again scored on a pass
play, and made the extra point.
In the fourth quarter the Lions
again held the heavier and stronger team.
Coach Mosher told the team in
the lock room, "You haven't anything to be
ashamed of. You played a good game."
