The 4-H Club of Dalton sponsored a radio program December 17, with several of the members taking part. The fourth grade from Mrs. Rea’s room and the fifth and sixth grades from Mrs. Givens’ room sang Christmas Carols. On January 26th, the Junior High Students entertained the members of the P.T.A. with an interesting spelling match. Vivian Childress, an eighth grade student, won. We have one new typewriter of which we are very proud and have all the old ones repaired. The lunch room is serving very good lunches this year. They have bought a new radio and also many other things for the advantage of the students. After the annual was printed last year the alumni of Dalton High School held a banquet with a large number attending. Another banquet has been planned for this year. It is hoped there will be as many or more here this year than last. Our school system has something new this year. We have a grade supervisor who helps our grade teachers give the children the correct training. We also have a music supervisor for the grade children. We are very proud of our new faculty member this year, Mr. Jewell Wyatt Logan. We are anticipating with great pleasure that new school building we have been prom- ised this coming year. 26

SENIOR ACTIVITIES The Seniors planned for their first activity an ice cream supper, which was September 10, 1948. It was a big success and everyone enjoyed themselves. Next we began working on our play “Aunt Susie Shoots The Works,” a mystery comedy presented in three acts. The characters were as follows: Aunt Susie Stowe Scarlet Deane Laura Dawson Madame Zola Portia Lark Omar Graves LaSalle Johnson Slick Conway- - -- -- -- -- - Aunt Susie, an old maid, who hated all men intensely was played by Annie Mae Ramsey. The proper romantic ending was supplied when Roy Thompson, a dignified bachelor, who be- fore he met her was convinced that the woman’s place was in somebody else's home, per- suaded her men were not so bad after all. JUNIOR ACTIVITIES An enjoyable party was held in the Dalton Gym on January 20th, in honor of the Junior Class and their chaperone, Jewell Logan. C. B. Utley, Jr. was initiated for president of 1948- 49. There were three Juniors absent, Katherine Weir, Buddie Hale, and Randle Riley. Several games were played and later in the evening refreshments were served.
