ONE Peterson, started school.
There is much enthusiasm over
the "How Many Books Can You
Read?" chart in Miss Harris first
grade class. All the children are
reading books to see who can read
the greatest number and thus Sc
cure the most cards in the pocket
chart. Bernard Doege, Anita Hierl,
David Daniels, Marilyn Lovik,

activity reader called Here and

lates with their Social Study class.
The fourth grade drew pictures
to illustrate the Sahara Desert in
their geography class. Wonderful
record, they are library Champs
again. The students are working
as hard as ever to keep the ban
ner. They take a great interest
in reading library books. They are
starting to decorate their room for

decorating very much. It really
puts one into the Thanksgiving
mood.

les for Book Week. Some are pre-

Sports
With the football enthusiasm
fading out, basketball takes the
prep spotlight. Sank Centre, &C
cording to all indications, will have
both quantity and quality on the
basketball squad. Basketball has
always been the favorite high
school sport and this year 1t looks
as though the teams will be quite
tough in our district. The team
this year has the ability but per-
haps not the polish. For this rea-
son Sank Centre will probably start
slow but be q district threat at
tournament time. After a more or
less disastrous football season a
basketball schedule of interest may
become q reason to forget the grid
iron exploits. Let's hope so!
Glenwood and Melrose look bet
ter than any other district team
but Osakis or Sank Centre may up
set the favorites. The Main Street
ers eased up on their schedule a
bit, 50 no longer will they play
Minneapolis South, Saint Cloud
Tech, Wadena or any other team
that Is not either in the district
or in orr conference.
Seniors
Having completed the chapter on
Machines we had a unit test on
the things we have studied. This
included Machines that serve man
Machines that uses liquid, and Ma
chimes that use air. The steam
engine and the automobile were in
cluded, too. We now are starting
the chapter on Magnetism.
The Chemistry class is studying
electrons very carefully, showing
how the electrons combine to form
new compounds. This theory leads
us to the study Of Balance. The
knowledge Of Balance which in
cludes the study of radiules gives
a basis for the writing of formulas
1t is now that we are interested ir
how and why we are writing form
ulas and also how we write them
This week we are writing COM
positions on some Of the articles
in the Readers Digest. We also
have a vocabulary list to study.
Juniors
The geometry class is very busy
working on theorems, which they
must prove. The number Of proofs
get very confusing as our lessons
go on. After we are done with all
Of the proofs we will think that our
theorems and postulants should be
known perfectly.
In Miss Wilson's English class
everyone is still working on new
vocabulary words and reading the
Readers Digests. We have just
