A masked, rifle-toting man stepped from the woods. Before dragging Peggy into the dense brush, he snapped: "I don't want any sass from you kids. I'm taking this girl...
...also free monthly classroom materials in the form of guides, vocabulary tests, wall maps, charts, graphs and the annual Current Affairs Test. Projected for 1966-67 are introductions to the Supreme Court, religions of the world, Red China, international alliances, Canada, and space. There will also be two news brush-up quizzes.
