the EDITOR SUMMARIZES Can you remember ’way bark to that first day of school this year — September 4, 1940? Can you remember how we eagerly sought out pals we hadn’t seen all summer, how we looked over the new bunch of freshies. how we discussed the appearances of our new teachers, how we listened to Mr. A Hinder tell again the purposes and ends of school this year? That day indeed was an eventful one. That day our tanned or sunburned faces were beaded with perspiration as we laboriously filled out our enrollment cards. Again the Girls' League started the year’s events as it initiated the freshmen girls at the annual party. With this good start, the school quickly wound up again, and slowly the minutes of the year began to tick off. Football practice started, the boys tackling and blocking under the rather warm rays of the sun. Artie Christensen, captain of the eleven, and his team practiced diligently in spite of odds against them, and we were proud of ’em. “Know Your Money,” a movie sent out by the F. B. I., and “The Scarlet Rider, a speaker who was once a Canadian Mounted Policeman, were the first of a series of assemblies which helped to relieve the monotony of the classroom until the time when all our thoughts centered on the Fall Party. We had a life-size scarecrow as the center attraction of the party, with a spotlight bringing out his grotesque features. The Hallowe’en spirit was completed by Miss McGee as the “Teller of the Future.” A two-day vacation was celebrated the last part of October because of the blessed Teachers’ Institute. Phis takes us up to November 8. when we played our final exciting football game. The eleven celebrated its successful season at the Football Banquet sponsored by the Student Council. It has been said that the fellows gained back most of the weight they had lost during the season at this affair. Seconds, thirds, and even fourths were necessary to fill some of our “huskies.” Yes. and then came the All-School play. Remember how Charles Lundsberg continually blew up the stage? Remember how the audience roared with the laugh lines in “Spring Fever?” Our band of approximately fifty-five members gave a public concert in middle November. It was the first appearance of many.
