A woman was taking a walk through the park and discovered the bloody corpse, she called an ambulance right away. Sheldon and his friends were driving around town at about 2-3am, while they were drunk, and saw Ponyboy Curtis and Johnny Cade walking in Central Park. Sheldon was angry at them for watching a movie with his girlfriend (Sherri Valance) and went towards them. When he got close to them, he grabbed Ponyboy’s head, stuffed it into the fountain and tried to drown him. Cade watched his best friend, Curtis, being drowned and pulled out a knife and stabbed Sheldon. Sheldon fell to the ground and Ponyboy lifted his head from the fountain. Randy Adderson, Bob’s friend, said that that was the last thing his friends saw because they ran away and drove home.

Opinion
These shoes don’t look good at all. The reason why I think this is because it doesn’t look like they would match with really anything, Also the colors do not look like something that anyone would want to wear on their feet.

Economy
The 1965 economy is setting records but some records are not good. The country has an unemployment rate of 5.2. But is in way over it’s head with debt around 322.2 billion dollars. While our federal spending is much less with around 118.23 billion this year. Like I said some records can be bad.
