ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL CAMPAIGN

ILLUSTRATION: Staff photo by PETER D. SUNDBERG

Students at Rosemont Forest Elementary School have collected more

than 1,200 cans of food to donate to the Salvation Army this year.

There were enough cans to line the school's interior hallway, which

goes all the way around the square-shaped building. This was the

seventh year that the 650 students of Rosemont Forest have collected

canned goods for the needy. Anne Beck, one of the teacher sponsors

for the program, and Ashley Sykes, 8, push a cartful to an awaiting

van. Crew members from the guided-missle cruiser Mississippi were

there to transport the goods.
