Tuesday the assembly was held to decide who would be crowned as Prince Charming for the coming year. The crowning will br during the Girls Dance Friday, March 16th. The girls have many activities planned for Friday including an assembly at 11:30; Fashion Show and a Mothers Tea for the afternoon. The Seniors traveled to St. George Monday where their four debate teams met Dixie High in debate to practice for the Region 9 Forensic Meet, which will be held March 14. Also, the students will participate in extemporaneous speaking and an oratory contest. The deadline for the annual Junior Prom is drawing closer each week bringing more juniors to wonder if there will be a Prom this year. It is sure to be among the best proms In Valley High Schools history. The Underclassmen are working to fulfil teachers requirements because the end of the term is near. We hope the instructors will be lenient with students. The band and chorus members are working hard to prepare for the Region 9 Solo Ensemble to be held at Valley and also for the Music Festival at Richfield. The yearbook committee is holding a dance March 23. Focus again on our column next week to find who waa the Prince Charming for Valley and how the students did In the Forensic meet U':.!

But the one thing we wanted most for her was something the for average person takes ability to walk granted the alone and unaided. There were many times during the years that my husband, Dean, and I thought that Linda would never be able to throw away her braces and crutches. And to be truthful, there were when we terrifying moments feared we might even lose her, Linda was born with an in her spinal column, opening ' a condition known medically as spina bijldo. As a result, her body was seriously affected from the waist down. When she was only a few hours old, Linda underwent i delicate operation that partial this condition.

And . . . treated by the Insertion of a shunt tube which drains the excess fluid from the head into the blood stream. You can imagine how much we worried about our little girl in those early days, because we knew she was never far from death. It could have come at any time. After all, 250,000 infants are born in this country each year with a significant birth defect and 21,000 of them die. But Linda continued to improve. She received specialized treatment at the March of Dimes - supported center. She got her leg braces and crutches. Linda hated them, but she learned to use them. When, though if ever would she be able to run and play with her sister and two older brothers and the other neighborhood children? The answer to that question depended on Linda, her doc tors, the rehabilitation thera pists, and us. We all worked together. We worked long, and we worked hard, but it was worth it . , . llnda today, now abla to walk without her crutches or log bra cos. Only the other day, Linda took her first halting steps across our living room without her crutches or leg braces. It was an unforgettable experience. In my excitement, I telephoned the good news to everyone I knew and probably quite a few I didn't know. It was a real event. f. Linda has won through. She improves every day. Now her trips to the birth defects center have been cut to just ono every three months. Best of all we have been able to enroll her in kindergarten. Dean and I and the children femember the gloomy days. We know that many other parents of afflicted children are going through similar days of anxiety and heartbreak right now. But we also know that The Naof tional Foundatiorf-Marc- h Dimes is looking for the cause and cure of birth defects.
