MINTO, N.D. -- Minto High
School will present John Patrick's
"The Curious Savage," an insanely
funny comedy for the entire fami-
ly.
The residents of The Cloister's
"sanatorium" anxiously await the ar-

lovely stepchildren in hopes to
"bring her to her senses." Mrs.
Savage has been lett ten million dol-

make the best use of it, in spite of the

Mrs. Paddy (Briana Roller) hates

up for Lent.

Maltick) and Miss Willie (Venettia
Castillo) get Mrs. Savage settled into
her new home, her lovely stepchil-
