NIILLEH A message from the SUPERINTENDENT I hope that you have learned through your period of education to believe in the supremacy of personality, to recognize the supremacy of the corn- mon good, and to see that love is the power that does unite. These are the principles upon which happiness is built and nations endure. A message from the PRINCIPAL Make the most of your opportunity to attend high school. Train your rnind and will to do the work that you have to do at the time it ought to be done, whether you like it or not. Prepare yourself to be a good student, a true friend and a respected citizen in the community. Prepare also to be self-supporting and form the habit of doing things Worth while without thinking of the reward. Suc- cess and happiness will surely come your Way.

BEI-IRDSTUWN IIIEII SIIHUIIL HUMEEUMING Co-Captain BIIKE MULKEY crowns Fnixisczss QUEEN of the Homecoming. HOMECOMING got off to a good start this year with the crowning of the Queen in an assembly preceding the parade. Immediately following the coronation the cheerleaders led a rousing pep assembly. Our interest then turned to the parking lot where the parade was forming. All the classes and many of the clubs had spent hours in making their floats which each hoped would win a prize. The band, followed by the Queen and her court, led the parade down State Street which was lined with people. The floats and decorated cars followed and a cheering block brought up the rear. The Home- coming was a huge success except for the game which was lost to Pittsfield 26-14. The boys played an excellent game, but couldn't keep up with the raging Saukee Indians.

The Yachtman furnished the music for this memorable occasion. Midway through the dance, the spotlight moved to the door of the gymnasium as the Queen and her attendants, with their escorts, entered and proceeded to the east end of the gymnasium. The royal party then started a progressive dance.
