EHDHTCCDIPRHAHAS 2 Q Our Paper nwhy can't we have a school newspaper?n That was the question asked by some of the lively members of the Junior Class late in October. We found, however, that there were many problems involved in the publication of any Lind of newspaper: how did other schools manage? Why not inquire? Fifty cents' worth of penny postals, addressed and mailed to neighboring schools, brought overwhelming results. Letters , full of valuable suggestions, as well as copies of school papers, came in almost every mail. Our enthusiasm reached a great height. ' After careful study, we made our plans, elected an editorial staff and went to work. This first copy of The Broadcaster is the result. Our aim is to develop the best characteristics in each student, to provide fun, to build loyalty, and to uphold truth As you look back year, these notes may P School opened on and the Freshmen were S. R. Notes on 1945 on the events of the preceding school bring a few happy C?D memories to you. September 8. Old friends were reunited, just a trifle scared. Do you remember the Freshmen Initiation? Boys always did look sweet with.ribbons in their hair. Nothing will be said concerning the girls' coiffures. Later in September, students were ringing their neighbors' doorbells and saying--nYou don't want to buy a magazine, do you?n The neighbors did, and the school earned. On October 29, the Seniors had a very successful Hallowe'en Dance. How were the refreshments, Hynes? Thanks to the school's excellent projector, motion pictures and slides have been shown to classes throughout the H term, The outstanding picture was Land of the Free.N H. B.

Haven't you ever worried about passing a test or getting a poor report card? I have, and I know that ZUSFG are many others like me. However, can you truthfully say that fretting and stewing helped you to get a good mark? Of course you canit So come on,students! Studi and pa attention and then I q . 5 there will be no fear of failures. If, by chance, you do fail you will have fewer regretsg because you will know you have done your best. Rise on Time I wonder why it is that so many students are tardy every day. Is it because they have no alarm clocks or is i because they aren't called early enoufh? I know that most of my tardinesses are caused by my failure to arise in time to dress, eat, and get to school on time. If I had not staved in bed a bit longer, thinking that I could still make it, I should not have been late. Probably many other students marl time in the same way and pile up unnecessary cases of tardi ness. Now, one could have an arrangement for rising whereby the bedclothes would be rolled up on a device like a curtain rod with a dial on it that one would set at, say, a modest seven o'clock. At that time, a catch would be released and the device would yank the covers off the bed, leaving one shivering in the cold, only too willing to get up Or, if that plan didn't work, one could have a special sufficient force to hurl the occupant over the foot of his bed into an automatic cold shower U My recommendation, however, is to get into the habit of rising when one wakes up, making MI woke up at sevenn identi cal with I got up at seven u C.
