Here's hoping everyone enjoyed their first day back to school. Let's complete it with a perfect evening by giving the "Tigers" our full support in winning our first game of the season tonight.

The new officers for 196263 of the La Teen Center have retired last year's officers as of September 1, 1962.

Larry won by flip of the coin. We would like to wish them a successful year and smooth sailing.
