8 THE LOG Old Fort Station Sa 3.1'i.t'?.?.!11i S All With a Smile PORTHOLE PEEPERS. I. C. Awl. Despite the protest of several unkind critics, this column is en- tering the second round, still go- ing strong. We have, however, felt enough pity for the poor read- ers to eliminate all attempts at poetry. Merely personal piffle: Camp- bell made the remark that he look- ed uglier since his soup bowl hair cut. We don't think he looks any uglier .... George D. is Worried about his chickens since all the girls are going around with feath- their hats .... Jo-Jo ers in Brown, who has been our very best woman at last Misses hater, has admitted defeat - ask him about Dot S... . . Smith and Steiger are still yelling, Why didn't you give us a break and introduce us to those handsome Lexington cheerleaders? . ...Jimmie H. didn't run fast enough Hallowe'en night, after some guys got through unrolling some paper Ask him how many yards he picked up in that down- pour with the cops escorting him, also being weighted down by the huge umbrella .... Why doesn't Sarah Marguerite J. keep her chewing gum in her mouth at foot- ball games? . . Nothing seems so desolate as the tennis courts at this time of the year .... We don't know whether to envy or to pity classes to work on the football field. In a sudden spurt of energy your dauntless correspondent turned in- vestigator and uncovered this: Danville High has 561 students en- rolled, starting with Abercrombie and ending with Zumstein. The S's head the list of names with 60 Simpsons, Siegels, and Smiths -- only 6 Smiths and nary a one is of masculine gender. The C's are only one point belhind with 595 the Q's, V's and X's look like my test papers, a big zero for all of them. Buford Guerrant, the pool shark, will be unable to continue his pro- fession, so his pater says .... This leaves Clemens Caldwell as number one unit. Now that the operetta season has begun again, the teachers will not expect the warblers to have their lessons. This is small conso- lation for practicing after school, in every vacant period, and even at night. Lost-6th Period Typing Class. Finder please return to C, Crock- ett. P. TT..

DEDICATION This edition of THE LOG, which is twice regular size, is dedicated to the members of the Danville High School football squad, and their coach, J. Rice Mountjoy, whose pictures appear in the sec- ond section of this issue. To these boys go much credit for the wonderful record they achieved during the past year in football, but we fe-el also that their coach, J. R. Mountjoy, is due high praise for their success. SENIORS RECEIVE ANOTHER BLOW The idea of senior dignity, al- ready battered beyond recognition, has been thrown away complete- ly! A duty-room, especially for the Seniors, has been started to take care of the ever-growing stream of tardy 12tlh graders. The boys are the principal offenders thus far. According to Mr. Allen, home- room teacher for the senior boys, the number of tardy students in his room have been averaging above. ten per day. Now in punish- ment for their sins, tardy seniors will be required to stay in thirty minutes after school. Admirals To Engage In Net Tournament -, XMAS VACATION STARTS FRIDAY On Friday afternoon, Dec. 21, joyous students will lay aside their school duties and worries for the all too brief respite of the Christmas vacation. According to all indications, the holiday will be a happy one in spite of the gloomy shadows cast by oncoming exam- inations. Santa Claus will over- throw the entire Danville school system for a period of eleven days. After this short glimpse of hap- piness unobstructed by lectures, tests, reviews, and home-work, Danville High denizens will sadly return to their tasks, on Wednes- day, Jan. 2. On Tuesday of the next week, the big, bad wolf, exams, will proceed to gobble up its usual quota of hapless pupils. In other words, Christmas vaca- tion, the lull before the storm, is ,about to begin. ' 0h! Doctor ls Presented By Members Ot Mixed Glee Club The mixed Glee Club, under the direction of Miss Catherine Mathis, presented the operetta, Oh, Doc- tro! on the nights of Dec. 6 and 7. The leading role was taken by Jack Stith as Dr. Drinkwater. He shared honors closely with Lucille Wylie as Glory Drinkwaterg Jean Marie McConnell as Honorg Tiny Williams as Philipp and John Pow- ell as Bob, Other leads were taken by Ruth Van Winkle, Dorothy Marcum, Violetta Wilkinson, Emmy Lou Turck, VViharton Allen, Glenn Shearer, John Creech, Dorothy McGowan, y Charles Allen, Jack Huffman, James Bolling, and War, ren Griffith. Much laughter was furnished by Barry Griiiith in the role of a colored servant. The scenery, due to Mr. Whalin and his manual .training class, was very brilliant and beautiful. It was softened to lovely pastel hues by the lights which were in charge of Phil Foley and James Connelly. These things, added to the pretty costumes of those in the chorus, furnished a very colorful and picturesque background for the story. The success of the operetta was largely due to Miss Mathis' inces- sant work. Credit also is due Miss lContinued on Page '1 wo7 1 T Four Teams Entered In First Blind Net Tournament. Danville's basketball represen- tatiye of the Ihigh school will have a busy vacation week ahead of them, according to an announce- ment made yesterday by Coach Mountjoy.
