Lightning· Strikes At L. H. S. Girl "I was struck by lightning," remarlced Marilyn Marshall when asked what she did on her vacation. Marilyn was visiting in Mankato, Minnesota, and was sending the night in a. cabin near there. She. continued by saying, "We were sleeping soundly, when rain and a thundering crash woke us up with a start. I was in a comfortable position with my arms around the iron bedopost when I heard the world crashing about me. What I heard next was a lot of voices talking and I was being given artificial respiration by a life guard. The girls told me that I had been unconscious for more than three minutes.
L.H.S.. Tal{es Girls' State By Stor1n
The Lincoln high school band accompany the team to Scottsbluff and play at the football game there on Fri· day night, October 10. This trip will be made possible through the efforts ' of. a committee of members of the Lincoln junior chamber of commerce, headed by Sid Anderson. A plan for obtaining suf· ficient funds was presented to M. C. Lefler, superintendent of schools, and H. C. Mardis, prin· cipal of Lincoln high school. The Jaycees plan to raise t11e money by sponsoring a dance at the Turnpike, to be held Friday night, October 3. Music will be furnished by Clyde Knight from the Trianon in Chicago. The committee hopes that a sufficient number of Chamber of Commerce member.s and patrons of L. H. S. football will buy tickets for the dance to insure the funds necessary to send the band with the team. If their efforts are sufficiently supported by the community, a special train will be scheduled for the. trip. More than 30 members of the chamber of commerce ·have already asked for rese rvation.s for the trip. A special rate has been matl c of will probably
