Senior Party
A Success

The annual senior party was held
Saturday night in the Junior High
auditorium. The auditorium was
decorated with Christmas colors.
Three small decorated Christmas
trees were on the stage with red
and green crepe paper twisted above
the trees. One large lighted tree
stood at the further end of the hall.
The two spotlights furnished the
soft colored light
Most of the evening was spent in
dancing to the music furnished by
the school orchestra There were
two special features-the Virginia
Reel, and song by Paul Risley
and the trio, Betty Baker, Mary Cor
nell and Mary Lenore Martin.
Another amusing feature of the
evening was the drawing of partners
for the next dance. The numbers
were put into two hats, one for the
boys and one for the girls to draw
from. The two that had the cor
responding numbers had to dance
with each other.
After this candy bars and peanuts
were served.

Editorial

All, just Aene more day of school
until sixteen days of carefree, glori-
Gus fun No studying, no worrying
about getting up, and no school
for sixteen days. That is probably
the thought in most of our minds as
the time draws nearer for the long
waited for vacation
AS Christmas vacation is reached
we usually sigh and think that half
of our school term is over. That
the first half is passed. Whether
for good or bad--its over.
We look back over our past eight
weeks and think of the fun we've
had, and the work we've done. We
have had fun, and we have worked
though maybe not as hard as we
might have
In the free days that follow, and
especially on Christmas Day. let us
not forget that one thousand nine
hundred thirty-seven years age
Christ came into the world to make
us better. So many of us in the ex-
element and happiness forget to re-
member this; there are too many
other things to occupy the mind.
So let us be happy and reflective
carefree and responsible, and let us
return to school and work to make
the new year better than any year
and try to make ourselves better
too.

Terriers Bow
To Badgers

Friday night the Libby Terriers
were defeated by the Boomers Fer
ny quintet on the Badger floor. The
final score was 1918.
The game was not SO fast as it
had been anticipated to be without
the center jump, although it showed
signs of speed at times.
The first half was slow, and unin-
teresting because neither team
would open up relying mainly on
defense Blackburn and Posten
were the main offensive threats
during the first half. The Terriers
were held scoreless the first quar-
ter and to one free throw in the
second quarter.
The second half the teams opened
up more and more as the game pro-
crossed. 1t was during this second
half that G. Chandler excelled in his
specially, which is taking the. ball
off the blackboard, pivoting and
dropping it back in the basket for
q counter. Borden, Libby guard
was the outstanding ball handler
on the fleeFF while every player
showed signs Of good defense.

I .yoRD offers two new cars for 1888
the Standard Ford Va and the De
Luxe Ford va. They are different in APP
pcarance = but built to the same high
standard of mechanical excellence ON
the same chassis.
Because people liked our 1887 car so
we'll, they bought more than of any other
make. They liked its looks, its smooth
performance, and the way it handled. We
have improved on that car in the newly
styled Standard Ford Va.
But some folks wanted still more size
and style, with the same Ford advantages.
For them, we designed new De Luxe line.
The De Luxe Ford -8Sedans are longer
with more room, larger luggage space,
and finer appointments all around.
The Western news. [volume] (Libby, Mont.) 1933-current, 1937-12-16

De Luxe cars are equipped with the 85-
horsepower engine only.
The Standard is even lower priced than
the De Luxe. 1t has graceful new lines
and well-tailored interiors-with choice
Of engine sizes-85 or 90 horsepower.
Before Ford made V-type 8-cylinder en-
gines available to every one, they we're
used only in expensive cars. Since then,
four million Ford owners have learned
the genuine enjoyment of driving an eight
cylinder car with all-around economy.
The thrifty 30" engine, especially, makes
possible in Standard models a very low
first cost and equally low operating cost.
With two distinct designs, two engine
sizes and two price ranges, you'll find
1888 Ford car to fit your needs exactly.

What--No Gangsters?

What I liked best were the esca-
lators. Geel they were fun So
stated Miss Dorothy King, concern
ling her recent trip to Chicago. Ar
irving on November 81, and leaving
on December 3, Dorothy and APP
proximately 1899 other All club
members from As states, Canada,
and Hawaii spent an eye-filling
period among the sky-scrapers of
the Windy City" and Dorothy says
1T is Windy!"
The tourists had very thorough
lly filled program starting their day
about Gas in the morning and clos
ing it somewhere between 1900.
midnight and 100 the next morn
ing When asked for blanket re-
port of it all, Dorothy said, If I
tried to tell it all, I'd be talking till
midnight" Some of the highlights
were, however: the Field Museum,
/ the Brockfield Zoo, an illustrated
lecture on astronomy in the Adler
Planetarium, and that famous radio
team, Lulu Belle and NScottie.'
A great deal of their time was
taken up with eating-they were
fed by Wilson & Co, the Interna-
tional Harvester Co, Sears Roe
buck, Montgomery Ward, and Chi
cago Mail Order CAT the last three,
places they were given cards on
which to place their names and ad-
dresses. Il suppose SO they could
send lis catalogue" was Dorothy's
opinion.
AT the breakfast given them by
Jane Alden of Chicago Mail Or
der, the girls were treated with
style show of 1888 styles. For the
benefit of the ladies, Dorothy says,
Il think the skirts were just
little longer" and 1.-THE most popu-
lar type of hat was the bonnet"
The Montgomery Ward banquet
has truly honorable place in Doro-
thy's memoirs of the whole trip.
Here, they were entertained in the
Marine Dining Room of the famous
Edgeworth Beach Hotel. "You al
most had to pinch yourself to be-
lieve 1t was true"
Holding first place, however. for
having given her entertainment and
knowledge, is the R. c. A. broad
cast of the program THE Magic
Key" which they were permitted
to see. Il always wondered how
they got the applause over the
radio" said Dorothy. Now, she
knows. The man running things
in the studio holds up his hands
when ne wants applause, and lets
them down when he's had enough.
| With the possible exception of
the sky-scrapers, and the double
decker BUSES CT always took the
upper story") perhaps Dorothy
gained the most enjoyment and
amazement out of show which she
saw at the RKO Palace Theatre.
Honestly, it looked just like the
man was flying all around the
stagel" Well, / believe we might
all have been amazed
1t was not until the last day that
Dorothy had the chance to 90 shop
ping. Then, I'VE had to walk l6
blocks from the Auditorium Hotel

she spent very lucrative period in
the Sears Roebuck Store, and avery
enjoyable one in Marshall Fields,

First Basketball
Peu Rally Held

Friday afternoon the high school
students met in the high school
auditorium to hold their first bas-
ketball pep rally.
The rally was opened by the sing
ing Of some school songs which were
led by the Peptomists. The songs
had been typed out in order to give
each pupil an opportunity to learn
the school songs better.
Coach Erickson then presented the
football boys with the letters they
had earned. In order to obtain a
letter the boys had had to play
in II quarters Those receiving let
ters were Leonard Spencer, Bob
Nolop, Dick Richards, Clarence
Johnson, Gene Novel;, Karl Klehm,
John Harmon, Clarence Larson, Jack
Darlington, Fred Clark, Kenneth
Brown, Bob Fowler. Douglas Stick
ney, and manager, Wayne Johnson
After presenting the letters, Coach
Erickson gave his opinion of this
years basketball team. He stated
that our main trouble would be with
the contesting teams which con-
tanned large, tall men, as our team
was comparatively small and short.
Next the Peptomists entertained
the assembly with several songs
After the Peptomists appearance,
Don Hayden was called on, and gave
his opinions of the game they were
70 play that night with Bonners
Ferry,
Miss Williams also gave a very
appropriate speech about our bas-
ketball squad and school spirit.
The three yell leaders were then
called forward to lead the assembly
in some rousing yells.
After the yelling the assembly
joined in the singing of the school
songs once more. The boys formed
on one side of the assembly and
contested against the girls. This
rivalry aroused much enthusiasm
and spirit.
Mr. Wood then spoke few
minutes on his observation of the
student body as they had conducted
themselves while singing. He said
that as usual there had been some
pupils who overstepped their
bounds, causing trouble, while 9TH
ers could be trusted.
Mr. Wood then called on Helen
Martin who told about her expert
ences participating in the State
Chorus which she attended in Kali
ispell. She was very thrilled over
the instructor and her experiences
I there, and expressed her desire that
everyone might have the opportuni-
ty to attend such a meeting
Bobby Bigelow then told about
his experiences he had had when he
attended State Orchestra at Butte
Genera Beasley was called on tc
inform others how she had sold
more tickets than any other student
in high school for the turkey raf-
fle held at the Hi Jinx. Generis
sold lis tickets, record to be
proud of.
After the boys had marched out
of the assembly amid cheers and
clapping for their good luck at the
game to be played that night, the
assembly was dismissed.
