Clean Up Day For Huntley
April 22 was Earth Day all over the country. Our high school de¬ cided to have discussion and speech¬ es about our countries environment¬ al problems.
As a result, a group (rf high school students decided on a clean up day for our community. April 26th was therefore reserved as clean up day.
A large group of concerned stu¬ dents showed up to pick up trash around our community. The stu¬ dents filled four pickup tnicks with trash. It was hard to believe that this much Htter existed in the streets and alleys of our commun¬ ity.
We would like to thank Art Kahl for allowing up to dump our trash. Contiaiied on Page Two CLEAN UP DAY
