Summer is indeed upon us now. And it certainly should
be . . . to day being about the middle of June. The kids are
finally "coming down." The end-of-school celebrating is
over, and everyone has settled down to the rather monoto-
nous summer life. The guys are working out in the hot sun,
and the girls are not working out in the hot sun. Some have
even begun vacationing. Others have left Clarendon for the
summer.
Greenbelt Lake seems to be afavorite spot for many kids.
Boating and skiing are very popular . . . especially on a
hot summer afternoon. Of course, swimming is very re-
freshing , too. The Country Club and Western Skies Motel
are the two pools most frequently used. (Well, besides the
lakel) The lake is not only used during the day.., many
kids enjoy going out at night, too!
Just recently, a new form of "recreation" has been pop-
ular with a few kids. Russell Keown managed to escape in-
Juries, when he had a slight collision with "another mov-
ing vehicle." I can't say the same about his car, thoughl
Mike Leeper's car is still going after his wreck with a
truck. Luckily, he, too, escaped injury. Debbie Robertson,
fresh out of Driver's Ed, put a "dent" in her parent's
car last week. Or maybe I should say "got a dent put in her
parent's car .... I" People are always telling us that female
drivers are the worse drivers of the two sexes. One out of
three isn't that bad, now is it?
Leaving town seems to be the "in" thing to do around
Clarendon. Carrie Neal left for the University of Okla-
homa last weekend. She is attending summer school, get-
ring acquainted, and I believe I heard that she has been
awfully busy learning how to ride a bicycle again. Tommy
Shields left last week, also. He has gone to Lubbock for the
summer. Jerry Holland left after school let out. He is
working with his uncle up north. Jerry will be back,
however, when school starts. Terry Saye was in Colorado
City all last week. She and her mother visited with her
grandmother. Pat and Wanda Trout have also been away
visiting their grandmother who lives in McLean.
Katrlna Messer travelled to Austin during the first few
days of June where she was entered in State Twirling Com-
petition. Katrina did very very good.., she brought home
a II The Ensemble Sextet also went to Austin. They brought
home a III. Congratulations to everyone.., especially Ka-
trlna.
The 1973-74 CHS Twirlers left for twirling camp Sunday,
June 10o The five day camp is held in Canyon. The twirlers
have been practicing like crazy for this camp. They will
learn many new routines andwill compete against many area
twirlers . The 1973-74 twirlers are Kim Newhouse, Andi
Eads and Karen Burgess. The girlswill return home tomor-
row.
The 1973-74 Cheerleaders have really been working hard
for their trip to Dallas to Cheerleading Camp. The girls
have been making clothes for camp and practicing on their
yells. They have also ordered their suits for football and
basketball season. Saturday, June 16, the cheerleaders will
sponsor a bake sale. The sale will be held at the grocery
stores beginning at 9 a.m.
Everyone in Clarendon is glad to hear that Miss Yeach is
doing fine after her surgery. We'll all be glad when she is
up and going again.
Two Clarendon families have moved away Just recently.
Kistle and Kelli Longham moved with their familyto Amar-
illo last week. Gina Killingsworth moved with her family
back to New Mexico right after graduation. We're all going
to miss Kristle, Kellie and Gina, but we wish them lots of
happiness in the new (and oldl) homes. Kristie and Ke111e
shouldn't be too lonesome.., they're only 60 miles away.
And since John has already made a trip to see Gina, she
shouldn't be too lonesemej eitherl
Last week seemed to be the week of the fights for many
of us. It all started as a fun-filled evening in Childress.
The fun even included a dancel The only problem
out to be the escorts. They were the "wrong"

Many of the kids have been going to Amarillo for
tainment. Among the many who have gone are Kim,
Tracy, Tommy and Cindy. The drive-in can be a little

Since I didn't have a column last week, many people
asked me if I am still writing. Well yes, I am, but
activities are rather limited during summer
