THE MAQUOKETA HIGH SCHOOL "CLUB HOPE" IS STILL IN AFRICA ON
A GOODWILL TRIP.    THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO COME HOME WEDNESDAY,
BUT A SMALL FIRE AT THE AIRPORT THERE HAS DELAYED THEIR FLIGHT.
THEY ARE SAFE AND KDL AIRLINES HAS PUT THEM UP IN A NICE
HOTEL AND THEY DOING SOME VISITS TO TOURIST SITES.    THE
CURRENT HOPE IS THAT THEY WILL LEAVE FOR HOME LATE FRIDAY
AFTERNOON.
