UNBEATEN RECORD OF
FOUR YEARS AT STAKE

The tenth grade Starlets will play
their final game of the season to-
night at Williamsport, and it will be
really crucial one, for if the girls
win it, it will give them the remark
able record of having gone four
straight seasons without defeat.
The girls started playing together
in the seventh grade, and then went
on up through the eighth and ninth
unbeaten, and now come to the end
of their fourth year of play together
with a really good chance of keeping
their unbeaten record intact.
To date they have won eight games
this season, and one of those wins
was against the same team they will
be facing tonight Needless to say,
the Starlets, with their usual fighting
spirit, will be in there battling all
the way
Plan to go over to Williamsport
to night-the girls game starts at
$50 - and root for the Starlets all
the way.

Don't Miss The
CAREER
CONFERENCE
TONIGHT
With My Eyes Wide
Open, Pm Dreaming

Isn't it funny that day dreaming
attracts SO many people? Is it that
day dreaming is interesting; habit;
or just part of person't life while
growing up?
Just what are day dreams? The
dictionary defines them as pleasant
thoughts, or thoughts that will never
come true.
While interviewing some students,
your reporter found that the diction-
airy was only partially right, for
these students day dreams have
come true, or they are planning to
make them come true
Although many of the dreams
were worthwhile, others are Just
passing fantasies. The most common
answer given among the boys was
that they thought about girls, while
the girls answer was that they
thought about one certain boy.
Thinking about the future followed,
with such answers as-their future
homes, or their career after they
have completed school. Just sitting
and thinking about nothing followed
in third place.
If you are one of those people who
say you never day dream, why not
try it some time? It can become q
very interesting pastime.

cause this story is about no ordinary
prince, but a Little Prince who lived
on planet no larger than a house,
which contained three volcanoes
Zone extinct) and one vain flower of
great beauty.
Since the kingdom was so small,
our hero's only amusement was
watching the sunset. This was ac-
complished several times a day
simply by moving to different parts
of the planet. After a few misgiv-
ings he cleaned out his volcanoes,
said goodbye to the gorgeous flower
and set forth to visit the earth.
On his journey, in order to in
crease his knowledge, he visited as
teroids 325, 326, 327, 1928, 329 and
$50. They were inhabited respect
lively by king, conceited man, a
tippler, a businessman, a lamp
lighter and an old gentleman who
wrote voluminous books on geogra-
ply.
Finally arriving at his destination,
he landed in the middle of the Sa-
hara desert His first impression of
the earth was that it was "alto-
gether dry and altogether pointed"
1t was there in the Sahara that he
found the author of this book, who
had made forced landing and was
faced with the necessity of repairing
his motor within the number of days
his supply of drinking water would
last 1t was also there in the Sa-
hara that they parted six years ago,
and if anyone should ever see The
Little Prince, the author would like
to know about it.

An Interview With
Miss Whitrnore

The teacher to be interviewed this
week is Miss Ellen Whitmore, Eng
lish teacher of the ninth grade, who
joined the faculty of The Washing
ton School last September Before
coming here she taught English for
year at Culpepper High School,
Culpepper, Va.
Miss Whitmore was graduated
from the Hagerstown High School
and then went to Mary Washington
College, the women's division of the
University of Virginia.
Miss Whitmore told your reporter
that she first decided she would like
to teach while she was in her junior
year at college, and when we asked
her why she decided to become a
teacher, her answer was: 81 like to
meet and associate with people"
While in school herself Miss Whit
more said she wasn't too fond of
school work, but she thought the ac-
tivities were fun. She took part in
the radio and dramatics club and
majored in English and Psychology.
Our English teacher likes sports as
a hobby, especially tennis. She is
also very fond of football and bas-
ketball, but she said she likes to take
those games in on the sidelines. Miss
Whitmore also mentioned that:
There's nothing 1 like better than
! to get in game of bridge"
During the summer she plans to GO
to summer school, and when that is
over will go to one of the beaches for
vacation. She said that she hasn't
done much travelling except in the
New England States.
She didn't say so, but we would
imagine that she would be rather
spoiled at home, since she is the only
girl in family of four, and she also
happens to be the youngest.

AS We See 1t

Editors Note: By special invita-
ton of Scarlet and Gray, MIR. 7,
Wilson Cahall, principal, is oul
guest editorial writer for this issue.
One evidence of healthy change
which has taken place in our school
is the improvement of attendance,
In a period of six years our pei
cent of average daily attendance
in elementary grades has increased
3.9 points and in the secondary
department it has increased 7.9
points.
Many factors have produced
this change which has benefited so
many boys and girls. The large
addition to our building has made
it possible for students to benefit
from a better program of health
and physical education. The Of
ferings in the fields of industrial
arts, home economics, music and
art have also been enlarged. These
changes have made schooling
more interesting as we'll as more
profitable to youth.
A staff of we'll trained teachers,
who are vitality interested in the
welfare of individual children, has
made school more valuable to
boys and girls. The genuine in
terest of many teachers in helping
children grow up to be happy and
successful men and women is felt
daily by many students. SCHOOLS
are established for children but
they would be comparatively
worthless institutions without good
teachers.
A growing realization on the
part of parents and children of the
economic and social value of an
education has encouraged many
children to continue in school. A
high school diploma does not in
itself guarantee a good job or a
better way of life, but it does in
crease ones chances for greater
satisfaction in both phases of
living.
Improved attendance on the
part of individual students is di-
rectly profitable to the boy or girl.
1t is mutually beneficial to all stu
dents and to the development of
better habits and skills in the men
and women of tomorrow.

Inter Nos Program
Features Hercules

AS a feature of the Inter-Nos
meeting in the school auditorium
Monday night March 6, a program,
"The Labors of Hercules on Televi-
sion" was presented.
In this shadow play the narrator
was Carolyn Miller, and the most
powerful Hercules was played by
Dick Grimm. King Eurysthius, the
cousin of Hercules, who imposed
upon him the twelve labors so he
could atone for his madness, was
played by Ray Elliot.
Here's first labor was to kill the
Nemean lion. After he had set out
to hunt for the ion, King Eurysthius
ordered three workmen to make a
barrel into which he could retreat
in case Hercules came back and got
out of control. The three workmen
were played by Jack Hickey, Ralph
Elliott and Donald Burkholder.
While this was happening, Hercu-
les found the lion, and after trying
many ways to kill it, he finally seized
it by the neck and crushed out its
breath. The lion in the first labor
was played by Jack Hickey.
His second labor was to kill the
Hydra, a monster who had nine
heads. The Hydra was played by
Jack Hickey. The crab, which tried
to help the Hydra, was played by
Ray Elliot, and Hercules friend 10
lous was played by Ralph Elliot.
The Cerynian doe, in his third
labor, was played by Jack Hickey,
and Diana the owner of the doe, who
finally gave it to Hercules was play
ed by Lois Statler.
Here's fourth labor was to kill the
Erymanthian boar. Donald Burk-
holder played the part of the boar.
After he had accomplished his fifth
labor of cleaning the Augean stables,
Eurysthius ordered him, as his sixth
labor, to kill the man-eating birds of
Lake Stymphalus. AS his seventh
labor he was ordered to tame the
Cretan bull. This part was played
by Jack Hickey His eighth labor
was to conquer the man who ate
men. Here's ninth labor was alto
gether different from the rest, for
he was to get the sword belt from
the queen of the Amazons, Hippo
lyte, who was played by Doris Kuhn.
The kings next order was to go
and bring back the Geryon sheep.
During this trip to Geryon, Here
killed a giant and made the Strait of
Gibraltar. His eleventh order was
to go to the Garden of Hesperides
and bring back the golden apples.
Here accomplished this and then got
his last and most difficult labor of
bringing the three-headed dog, Ger
berus, up from the underworld.
After this labor was accomplished,
he had finished serving King Eurys-
THUS as slave.
Some time after he had accom-
plished these labors, two women ap-
peared before him, one who could
offer him pleasure and riches, while
the other could offer him duty, not
pleasure. The first woman, Pleasure
was played by Lois Statler. The
other woman who was Duty, was
played by Doris Kuhn. Hero decided
to cast his lot with duty instead OF
pleasure.
The sound effects were made by
Louise Spickler, and the accompanies
for the songs was Trixie Kilroy.
After the program, refreshments
were served to the club.
