Many improvements Are
Made On School Property

Despite the scarcity of ma
terials and available labor, Elk
land has been able to make no.
ticeable progress toward general
improvement of the school plant
during the year.
The completion of the reser-
voir, which will augment the
school water supply, marked the
greatest Improvement of the year
as we'll as the largest expendi-
ture. The reservoir, with an ap-
proximate capacity of 1000 gall
Ions, cost around $500, and is said
by Wade Eller, sanitarian, to be
one of the best constructed in
the county.
At intervals throughout the
year, class rooms have been wiz
ed and light fixtures installed so
that now each class room is ade-
quately lighted. Several rooms
have received an interior coat Of
paint, and some have added
built-in book shelves and other
storage equipment.
The entire school is eagerly
anticipating the immediate de-
livery of a new 80 GU it. refrig
orator, which will become the
latest addition to lunch room

Of World War ii
zen Girls and Twelve Boys
tRMake Record Graduating
Class For School
MEMBERS TALENTED

AS the largest and the first
postwar graduating class of Elk
land High School, % cap and
goWned seniors will solemnly and
sedately march up on the stage
of the Elkland High School gym
nasium to receive their diplomas
May 9.
This number includes the
eighteen regularly enrolled SEN
iors and veterans, who, through
continued study while in the va
rious branches of service and as
a result of the C. E. D. Tests,
have completed the prescribed
work and are entitled to become
recipients of diplomas awarded
by the school which they were
attending when the National
emergency interrupted their for
NAL scholastic training. These
veterans, Julian Raglan, J. B.
Miller, Byrl Bledsoe, and Shirley
Jones, have not been enrolled in
school this year, although 2 of
the regular seniors are returned
veterans.
The addition of these veterans
to the 1947 graduating class
places the families of Mr.. and
Mrs. B. G. Bledsoe and Mr.. and
rs. D. r. Jones in a record
holding position. Both families
have 3 children to graduate this
year, each having 2 sons and !
daughter.
Collectively and individually
the graduating class has made
an excellent record throughout
the years of high school. Sew
eral students have made superior
scholastic records; many have
participated in the school athletic
program through the years; all
have portrayed a fine school spir-
it of cooperation, good sports
manship, and good citizenship.
The regularly enrolled seniors
are:

Ekand High Has twenty-five Who Will Receive This

centered around the romance and
financial difficulties of Anna Nc
Lean, 40 year old widow, with
an eighteen year old son, and
Luther Long, Widower of the
same age with a 17-year old
daughter. Each parent is prac~
tically broke, and though they
really care for each other, the
contemplated marriage is one of
convenience. Both, to conceal
their correct ages, persuade these
teen-agers to dress as mere chill
dren with the promise that each
may go to the college of his
choice when the necessary mon
ey is available through this mar
riage. Events become involved
when young friends of the son
and daughter arrive and set the
fun in motion. This finishes the
"pretenders" and they dress again
as they should be; the truth
comes out-the wedding seems
in danger, but all is saved by
recent investments proving sue
cessful and the wedding bells
still ring.
The characters were portrayed
by: Matte Jones, the young Wild
ow, Mrs. Mclean; Joe Bledsoe,
her l8 year old son, Shep; Buddy
Cooper, the widower, Luther
Long; Gerry Bledsoe, his 17-year
old daughter, Juliet; Vivian
Greer, Mr.. Longs sister, Mrs.
Anglin; Mary Alice Norris, the
colored maid, Minnie; Beulah
Winebarger, Eugene Seatz, and
Betty Miller, Shops young
friends, Sylvia, Wilbur, and Gym

man, Max Moore; Betty Nell

held at the local Methodist
church, Sunday evening, May 4,
at eight o'clock, with the local
minister, Rev. E. u. Stevens, Of.

intelligent liberty, inviting ma
tional degeneracy and ruin.
