These smart looking high-stepping lassies have put forth a lot of time and effort in preparing drills, and making our year at Ben Lomond a real Scottish success. When the Scots come marching in the Bonnie Lassies lead the parade, and we the students of Ben Lomond would like to extend a warm Scottish “well done” for the outstanding display of school spirit. Leaders of the Bonnie Lassies are Phyllis Peterson, Vicki Langeliers, and Marsha Leishman. Drill Mistresses are Lorie Evans and Camille Jones. Miss Mower advised the Bonnie Lassies this year. Seven Bonnie Lassies were chosen to be Weber State Chatonelles next year. Serving in this well-known marching group will be Ellen Stephenson, Vicki Langeliers, Leah Harrop, Jackie Crosby, Susan Wood, Jolene Moore, and Debbie Mester. Jackie Downs was also chosen. _ Tryouts for next year’s Bonnie Lassies will be held Monday, Region debates began yesterday as our team debated against Weber High.

The only door handle on the inside was a pair of vise grips under the front seat. If they were accidentally left in the trunk, passengers would have to crawl out the window. The ignition key, long lost in some second-hand car lot, had been replaced with a small wire with alligator clips going from its battery to the distributor. Every time the car hit a bump they were jolted off and the car stalled. The clutch slipped terribly, and if the driver gave the car too much gas when he started out it would just give up and the car would sit there with the engine revving. This vehicle would start equally well in first, second, or third, but there was no reverse. To go backward the driver had to put it in neutral, open the door, steer with right hand, push with his left foot, and pray he was on a hill. Interesting complications arose if he couldn’t find the vise grips. Once the car was in motion everything went fine until you wanted to stop. This was especially tricky. The driver needed to pump the brakes half a block before the stop, starting with a hard pump and easing up just the proper amount when pressure began to build. to drive-a vehicle like this down the street ~ As-you-can-see, takes equally as much skill as nudging a Grand around the track at Monte Carlo. However, the advantages are great for those skill. The initial cost is low; under fifty dollars car. The upkeep, aside from an occasional dollar’s and a can of oil is virtually nothing.
