A holiday verse notes Santa arriving by red firetruck in a small town, with reflections on a festive downtown. It recalls Rock Falls winning 80 to 60 in a later game and mentions a February 2 conference rematch at Rock Falls. The piece blends local color with playful, commercial verses and a call to support downtown merchants.
Rich Kuecker, president of the SHS Amateur Radio Club, passed his general class exam in Chicago during the Christmas break and thus upgrades from novice to voice operation on bands from 160 to 2 meters with up to 1000 watts.

Several club members are upgrading, with Rich currently the only licensed student at SHS. Anyone interested should contact Mr Zeigler in room 237.
