The Christmas spirit is pervad-
ing the entire school. Rooms are
attractively adorned with light
ed trees, window designs, and with
blackboard and bulletin board
Christmas scenes. Plans for class
room parties are being executed
and the piles of presents beneath
each tree are rising daily as each
child brings or makes gifts for his
friends.
The class of Mrs. Carmetta
Brown and Miss Hannah Smith,
third and fourth, gave two well
planned chapel programs ON the
theme of Christmas: a program of
carol singing and recitations from
the 4th grade, and a pantomime,
Santa Was So Tired" by the 3rd
grade. That this pantomime was
filled with humor is evidenced by
these few excerpts:
Reader: Santa stirred in his
Sleep" (Santa stirs on the stage
with spoon.) "He was in a
pickle" (Helper crosses stage
with large pickle.)
The chapel program for Tues
day was under the auspices of
the second grade class teachers:
Misses A. Stewart and e. De-
vesux, and Mesdames Jolliviette,
and Dean. To see these little folk
display the real spirit of Christ
mas in song and in pantomime
was a pleasure. Dwight Johnson
was the jolly Santa.
Further spreading of the spirit
of good cheer was done by the
Patrol boys and their advisor, Mr..
Lennon Ivey. They shined shoes
which are to be dispensed to the
needy by the Lend-A-Hand pro-
ject.
The faculty and student body
are glad to have our principal,
Mrs. Clora PearSall back with us
after a 2-week convalescent peri

LaWmaker Proposes
High School Reserve
Corps in Place Of UNI

Representative Brownson, Re-
publican. Of Indiana, proposed to-
day that an expanded program
of compulsory reserve officer
training ROTC9 in high schools
be substituted for universal mil
itary training.
The proposal was made In O
statement prepared for the House
Armed Services Committee which
is holding open hearings on plans
to start UNIT.
Mr.. Brownson was one Of six
representatives scheduled to tes-
tify in the hearings. now expected
to end by tomorrow. He said
his proposal was being advanced
on behalf Of war veterans In
Congress and that it had been ap-
proved in outline by representa-
tives of groups like churches and
labor organizations.
Expanded ROTC Proposed.
Mr.. Brownson proposed that
the existing ROTC organization
be expanded to provide for two
years compulsory training. pref
erabiy during the last two years
of high school.
Instruction would be five hours
weekly or 160 hours a year.
Studies would range from orien-

Substitute for Reserve.
Mr. Brownson proposed that
students in colleges with senior
ROTC training be permitted to
take that instruction in place Of
going into the ready reserve. This,
he said, would eliminate any ne
cessity of considering the defer
ments of medical and scientific
students. as has been proposed
before. the committee.
He said youths who do not COM

mitted to take their military
training through the ROTC, the

failing to complete required train
ing would be subject to present
draft regulations.
