4. SOME SAD NEWS CAME IN RECENTLY THAT HISTORY TEACHER MR CLIGGOTT PASSED AWAY THIS MONTH. ALSO THE BROTHER OF 1978 GRAD KELLY GARLAND, KURT, PASSED AWAY LAST WEEK. KURT WAS A 1974 BHS GRAD AND MANY OF US WHO GREW UP IN CENTERVILLE REMEMBER HIM FROM BASEBALL AND HOCKEY LEAGUES. OUR THOUGHTS ARE WITH THE FAMILIES.
5. SOME ADVICE FROM A LOCAL EPICURIAN: PLACE YOUR NEW YEAR'E EVE ORDERS AT LEAST 24 HOURS IN ADVANCE AT TIKI PORT ON RT 132 FOR TAKE OUT. FOR SOME REASON CHINESE FOOD ON NEW YEAR'S EVE HAS BECOME A TRADITION. DOES ANYONE REMEMBER AN ALLEDGED INCIDENT WHEN BHS GRADS FROM OUR ERA TRIED TO LEAVE THE DRAGONLITE ON MAIN STREET WITHOUT PAYING? AS THE STORY GOES, COOKS WITH KNIVES CONFRONTED THE SCOFFLAWS FROM BHS IN THE ALLEY AND "HELPED THEM FIND THEIR WALLETS".

9. TAKE TIME THIS HOLIDAY TO THANK OUR TROOPS ALL OVER THE WORLD THAT ARE PROTECTING OUR FAMILIES AND OUR WAY OF LIFE. THEIR SACRIFICES SHOULD NEVER BE FAR FROM OUR THOUGHTS.
