THE C C. C. H. S. TIGER ROAR New Stevens Era .... Seniors Climax Four Yen rs The school year of 1937-38 started off with a bang, Sep- tember 6. A lot of changes in school were expected as a new principal, Mr. Geo. C, Stevens, and several neva teachers, Miss Eleanor Full- ington, Miss Charlotte Buch- mann, Mr. Virgil Yowell, and Mr. Paul V. Allen had been elected to the faculty. C. C. C. H. S. was not new to Mr. Allen, as he taught here pre- vious to his going to Kioffa, however, the Seniors were the only remaining class of his acquaintance. Neither was C. C. C. H. S. new to Miss Buchmann and Miss Fullington, graduates of the school, Mr. Stevens was prin- cipal at Kiowa thirteen years before he came here, which is a very good recommenda- tion for him. C. C. C. H. S. hopes it may be fortunate enough to keep him as long. A new first day procedure was introduced this year in which each member of the faculty gave a short talk. As- signments were ntade as us- ual and the first day was over. Mr. Stevens introduced several new rules not prac- ticed heretofore. One being no gum chewing, another no visiting of lockers between hours, and everyone should keep to the right of the hall while passing from one class to another. Also there should be no leaving the building without permission from the 1. XVhere the manual training 'wt is learned. 2. The Nor- mal Training class takes phy- siology too. 3.

Those two classes each elected two members of the faculty to select the students. The Jun- iors chose Miss Lamb and Mr. York, and the Seniors chose Mr. Larson and Miss Reynolds. They served with a Student Council elected member, the Principal and Vice-Principal. Activity Ticket New Another new feature of the year is the activity ticket. The price of this ticket was 52.50. This ticket admits the owner to all school activities, including the new lyceum numbers. The first number of the lyceum course was a talk on Alaska. The second number was Corporal Bob Ingleston who gave a lecture on the horrors of war. The third number was the Misner Players, who presented a three-act play, and the fourth and last number, the Elias Tamboritza Serenaders who presented A Night in Yugo- slavia, featuring their tam- boritzas, a Yugoslavian string instrument. Of course, they were all the more enjoyable for the students, and perhaps the faculty should be includ- ed, because they had the sat- isfaction of escaping a few minutes of a dull class. Each Teacher Has Ulm rel I The chapel procedure has been changed this year in that instead of the principal preparing every program as was formerly the custom, each faculty member and each organization had charge of a chapel.
