We, the members of the Fresh.
man class, wish to offer our sympa-
thies to the fri nds and relatives OF
Mable Foss. who died at her home
been a member of the Freshman
class since the opening of the term
and leaves many friends.
At meeting of the Senior class
held last week, DR.. Eastman, pro-
fessor Of Latin at the State Uni
versity, was chosen to deliver the
Commencement address this year.
Patriotic programs were held in
several of the lower grades last
Friday.
So far this year our high school
band has had an uneventful year,
being able to hold only two prac-
tees on account of the absence OF
their leader. But as Mr.. Elzea is
expected back soon now, it is
hoped that they can begin practice
in earnest and be in readiness for
the opening of the base bali sea-
son.
The Roosevelt society gave a
very good program last Friday al
ternoon. The debate showed es-
pecially good preparation and all
the other numbers We're very good.
The Physics class has started lab
oratory work.
The six weeks examinations will
be given next Wednesday and Sat
urday>
From now On the following work
when properly certified will receive
credit as indicated.
Active membership in any or all
high school musical organizations,
1-2 credit per year. .-sa..
Appearing twice in state Of inter-
society debates, 1-2 credit.
Appearing three times in a home
declamatory contest, 1-2 credit.
Appearing twice in district con-
test, 1-2 credit.
Winning first Or second place in
the district declamatory contest,
l-2 credit.
Appearing once in an inter-socie-
ty debate and twice in an extern
pore speaking contest, 1-2 credit.
Public speaking, 12 credit per
year. To gain this credit the pupil
must participate in an extempore
speaking contest some time during
his high school course.
Absence from performances or
practice more than two times in one
year, without a valid excuse such as
sickness, shall be sufficient cause
to lose ones credit in that particu-
