Jotkfabif. on the

week were the crowds

of hopeful-facehigh
school students who were here to compete for
honor in the 15ih annual Kentucky High School

May to 7, four hundred bovs and girls
ftom sixty-threschools throughout the state
Coming from rural communities and
small lilies, many of these students were privileged to roam for the first time over the grounds

but too lew of us attended. 1 he
