The physics students, under the guidance of Mr. Heiting, are con- templating the amount of water one gram weight will displace. The boys’ home economics class learn the rules for good housekeep- ing under the supervision of Mrs. Dehne. “Keep your eyes on the copy and feet flat on the floor.” Speed and accurary are the aim of Miss Karl- son’s typing classes. Miss Hughes helps the students un- derstand the confusing problems of plane geometry. They find it hard to understand why alternate interior angles are equal. Grammar, prose, and poetry are a few of the many things taught to the students in Mrs. Gilbertson’s English classes.

Semester Notes JANUARY 31— “Jim” Trollen, dressed as a girl, brought down the house in the hilariously successful Senior Class Play, “Don’t Take My Penny”. The remark was made that the seniors wouldn’t have had to say a word. The audience was laughing too hard to hear it, anyway. FEBRUARY 4— The Hudson High debaters made the school proud today by winning four debates at the Chippewa Debate tournament and becoming eligible to enter the state tournament at Madison. FEBRUARY 25— “Step right up, ladies and gents!” Yes, the public spirit of the band mothers was shown this afternoon and evening at a carnival put on to raise funds for the new band uniforms. Over a thousand dollars was cleared, and the goal for the much coveted uniforms was in sight. MARCH 23- Five out of fourteen speech contestants at the League Contest at River Falls received “A’s” and went on to the District contest at River Falls on March 25 where a perfect record of 5 “A’s” was made. Nice going! MARCH 31— Could this be annual blue jean day? No, only an ordinary Friday when half the girls in school decide that they haven’t a thing to wear and show up in school dressed in the favorite, jeans and a sweatshirt. APRIL 7— Our first real vacation for ages! Easter vacation. APRIL 22— A wiener roast at Prospect Park with everyone in old clothes was a switch from the usual semi-formal Senior G. A. C. dance in the high school gym. The girls furnished the food and entertainment in traditional G. A. C. style. MAY 3— Why is everyone in old clothes today? Could it be Civic Service Day? MAY 6— The annual music festival at River Falls today gave us a chance to strut our stuff, and also to stuff ourselves with eats in every spare moment. MAY 12— Judging by the number of girls with their hair up today, I’d say that the Junior Prom was going to be a big success. Seeing the tired products of the prom the next day, I know that it was. MAY 19— Many seniors were resigned to remaining another year in our fair school when they got a look at the senior exams. Cheer up! All seniors feel that way. MAY 21- Graduation creeps closer as the night for Baccalaureate arrived. We all began to realize that school wasn’t so bad, after all! MAY 25— The history of one more class of H. H. S. was completed tonight with Commencement.
