College Picnic Is Big Success
From the Central Bay, after exams and recitations, students decided the weather allowed a picnic. At about 10 am they rode to Skunk River, explored, played horseshoes, and killed snakes. Dinner featured potato salad, hamburger, cream pens, pickles, buns, ice cream, wafers, coffee. By 5 pm they returned home satisfied with a real good time.
