T MISCELLANEOUS e-:-:lnm:-:W- Richard Nims, Earlene Bentley, Virginia Ann Porr and Mildred Nemechek represented us in the Little Ten Declamatory Contest at Verdon last December. One of the pleasant social events of the year was a joint meeting of the Girl Reserves and the Hi-Y Boys. An informal banquet was the outstanding point. The high school operetta given under the direction of Miss Arnup was one of the outstanding successes of the year. Because of the roads the audience was not as large as was desired, the receipts being 531.00 The teachers of the Humboldt schools contributed 'twenty-five dollars to the relief of Northeast Nebraska sufferers. In order to give the band members more practice, concerts have been given every six weeks or so. One of the outstanding events of the year was the Victory Concert given after the M-I-N-K contest at Peru where our band won first place in Class B. A cafeteria supper preceded the program which was well attended. Hon. Kenneth S. Wherry of Pawnee City and I-Ion. E. T. Peck of Falls City, senator and representative respectively, addressed our students during the past year. Seventy-seven non-resident students attended the Humbolt High school this year. In a table showing the chronological ages and grades of the pupils of the Humboldt schools, we find 176 aicceleralted and 23 retarded, which seems a fine record. Humboldt has sixteen of its former students in the university this year. In addition a large number are at Peru and other places of higher leaming. One of the big events of the year was the celebration of Washington's birth- day. Each of the grades and the various organizations of the school united in furnish- ing the program. The second largest crowd ever gathered in the new auditorium witnessed this program. During the year the following students have dropped out of high school: Kenneth Pettit, Charles Dahlke, Hazel and Dorothy Nettelbeck, Mildred Proctor, Calvin and Robert Hunzeker and Glendon Luthy. We gained one new student, Vivian Smith. In the M-I-N-K contest at Peru, we won first place in the band concertg Edwin Bentley, second place in the tenor solo group: Marguerite Hynek and Jane Kehoe first in the piccolo and flute contestsg Ernest Fruhlbauer, third in the baritone divisiong Loren Biggs second in French Horn. The Boys' Glee Club won third place and the mixed chorus second place. The high school debaters with their coach, Mrs. Lois Sterner, attended an invitation debate at Hastings. They report that they had a good trip with no tire trouble. We didn't hear much about the debating. A play was prepared for the M-I-N-K contest at Peru but when we found it would cost us ten dollars royalty to present the play we gave it up. These producers haven't heard that the war is over. We were also prepared to attend the commercial contest at Nebraska City but when we discovered it would cost us from ten to fifteen dollars to enter we gave it up. It just wasnlt worth the price. State Safety and Constitutional Weeks were observed during September. The prescribed program was carried out and several hundred essays were written. 1Continued on Page Forty-Sevenl PAGE FORTY-FIVE
