Spring is here (officially, at least) and drag racing is one way to celebrate. A group of students at Huron High School organized a drag race and held it yesterday in the school parking lot. A large number of students and a few teachers participated in the "dead heat" start in which two cars or pick-up trucks at a time raced about one-eighth of a mile. All safety precautions were taken, according to Ruth Straight, a class principal. There were no mishaps. A follow-up contest for yesterday's winners is being planned in the near future.
