Ldies who are old enough to know
better have been seen on the local
basketball courts, and not as 1 ■
coaches either! It tcakes a lot of
stamina we have found out to run
the length of the court even just
a few times' a, and how we envy our
sturdy young sons who take all this
in stride! At the moment, (. and this
varies from day to day) the Copper
Center PTA is fielding a team com
posed of the following foolhardy
souls: Josephine Roach, Donna Donn
elly, PaulineLIncoln, Joy Morgan,
Marina Biilum, Dorothy Johns, with
an occasional assist from Mary Craig
and Thelma John!.If we can only
work out the muscle kinks we may
challenge our Gakona neighbors ... it
might be best if we insist on having
