Jessie Alexander, Wharton Allen EDITOR'S GREETING In view of the fact that we have been selected to edit THE LOG for the 'schoolyear 1934-35, we assume the responsibility of publishing the school news. To the entire student body we wish to say that if there be merit it will be due to the co-operation of the staff that has already proved its worth. If there be mistakes we ask in behalf of the entire LOG staff that these be given consideration and indulgence. Especially do we appreciate the responsibility given us in com- bining the LOG and the NAUTILUS, into one publication bearing the title of THE LOG. We sincerely hope that this year will be a banner year in publica- tions for the high school and we hope that with the co-operation of every pupil with the staff that THE LOG for the year 1934-35 will be better than ever. FAREWELL While loathe to stop the rapid progress of his career, the students of Danville High School cannot help sorrowing over the loss of their principal. For five years Mr. J. D, Williams devoted himself loyally and wholeheartedly to our school. Evidences of the success of his labors can be seen on every hand. The good fortune of Norris, Tennessee, in obtaining this man as principal is equalled -only by our own school in the selection of its new principal. To honor the memory of Mr. Williams, we must co- operate in maintaining the high standards of Danville High in ful- filling his ambitions and plans for our school. Perhaps in doing so we can transform our loss into increasing success and build an ever- offered. Miss Dinkle thinks that every one can pick up a little speed. Quickly choose wihat you want, and have your money ready, she said. Remember the other fellow, and do not keep others waiting unnecessarily. Miss Latimer's suggestion was that the periods could be more evenly divided. I also think, she went on to say, that more stu- dents pay the first cashier than the secon-d. When the first one is busy, pass on to the second and pay him. MUSIC DEPARTMENT FINDS NEW HOME Following a year of deliberation the dear old music department has at last found its new home. Room 33 in the gymnasium building. For several years the ofiicials have been deliberating whether to make the change or not, they finally came to a conclusion, so now the music room is oflicially located in tlhe new building. The former home of the music department has been added to the once small dressing room of the Athletic department and has made a large roomy department for the athletes. IDLE THOUGHTS Who in the world invented books? Why couldn't they put pillows on 'em so you could at least sleep comfortably? Wish that good looking blonde would turn around so I could wink at her and see what she would do. Hooray! Excitement! Some kid got caught for shooting paper wads. Why doesn t she come back here and tell me to study so I can argue with her. Guess I will carve my initials on this desk arm so when I become famous I can show people I sat at this desk. Looks like sime excitement in the office. I'll go fill my fountain pen and see what's happening. False alarm, that place is about as dead as tlhis. I wish she would sit down. All that teacher can do is stroll around the room, and what a walk! Y I know, I'll draw a picture of the teacher. Oh, this is swell. Would she be sore if she saw this? Gosh, wvhat's that pulling on my collar. Well the teacher saw the picture and here I go to the onice. present memorial to our former principal. L STUDENTS HOWL AT LUNCH PERIOD Many of the students have rais- ed a howl because of the short lunch periods. Some have express- ed themselves strongly, insisting that they must have more time in which to eat. The congestion and delay is given as a reasonifor the com- plaint. This condition is worse at the first period than it is at the second. The line even extends into the hall, .and many pupils stand ten minutes before they are served. Then there are but ten minutes in which to gulp down what they eat. Some of the pupils want ten minutes added to the period. We'd rather stay longer in 'Hhe afternoon, they say. There are others, however, who prefer the present arrangement. Several suggestions have been Principafs Corner To say that your new principal appreciates the many kind- nesses and courtesies which have been shown him on his return to Danville would be putting it mildly, The faculty and student body of Danville High School have been most co-operative, and the people of Danville have welcomed him as they might wel- come a prodigal son returning to their midst. It would indeed be a strange individual who would not consider such a recep- tion a challenge to him to do the very best work that he has ever done, to serve such a community with all of the meager ability which he might possess. Especially does your principal appreciate the fine stand taken by the Senior Class of the high school in the matetr of publications. Realizing that the traditional annual has been more or less 'draining the high school without giving value re- ceived, upon the recommendation of the principal and the pub- lications committee the seniors have courageously broken with precedent and worked out a plan of publications which will serve every member of the high school student body and should prove popular with advertisers and patrons. There may be other classes in the future which will put out better publications, but the Class of 1935 may alone take credit for th-e New Deal in school publications. Speaking of challenges, the seniors have entrusted to you, staff of The Log, the recording of the history of Danville High School for the current year. Your work will be bound and not crumpled up and thrown into a wastebasket. You have a task ahead of you. See that you do it well. 1 1

i. THE .LOG 3 NEW TEACHERS IN THE HIGH CHO0L Danville High welcomes to their faculty this year three new faces, to replace teachers and a prin- cipal who have gone elsewhere for the year 1934-35. Those faces who appear for the first time as a member of the fac- ulty of Danville High are: Mr. T. A. Sanford, as principal, to suc- ceed Mr. J. D. Williams, who re- signed to take the position as superintendent of a Model High School at Norris, Tennessee. Mr. who succeeds Mr. recently selected Perryville High Richard Foley, a S. R. Cummins, Jack Thompson, as principal of School, and Mr. WHITE T VERN 5c HAMBURGERS 5c Buy By Bag Good Coffee Soft Drinks. Park at THE PARK For Drinks and Sandwiches. TIIE PARK West Bros., Props.

Danville, Ky. substitute teacher of last year, has succeeded Miss Mary Louise Mc- Dowell in the English department. Mr. Sanford, our new chief executive hails from Murray where he was the head of the 'high school there for several years. He is a graduate of Old Centre of the class of '22. Mr. Cummins comes to Danville from Moreland where he was prin- cipal for three years before being called to Danville to take the pos- ition vacated by Mr. Thompson in the Social Science department and also as sponsor for THE LOG. Mr. Foley is a Danville man and a graduate of Centre College, who comes to succeed Miss Mary Louise McDowell who is in North. Western University, Chicago, studying. Mr. Foley will also be in charge of dramatics and debate. MRS. CUMMINS NAMED VISITING TEACHER HERE Mrs. S. R. Cummins of More- land has been named for lille pos. iiton of visiting teacher for the Danville City School System. This office is required in the School Code passed by the last Legisla- ture. I. It will be her duty to visit the homes of absentees and investigate conditions there with the view of creating a better understanding between parents, pupils, and scfhool authorities. Before coming here, Mrs. Cum- mins was a high school teacher at Moreland where Mr. Cummins, now in our Social Science depart.. ment, was principal. BOOTS No longer will studiously inclin- ed students be driven to despair by the harsh, unscholarly sounds of slhoes being scuffed, scraped, and stamped back and forth across the library floor. Miss Moore is preparing a rubber-heel list to bring the proper peace and quiet to her domain. All of those re- primanded as many as three times for being unnaturally noisy as they cruise about will be denied the use of the library unless they are wearing rubber heels. Some grumbling offenders assert that the next step will be a Ten- nis-sfhoe list, and one has been so unkind as to suggest that bare feet be made a requirement of the library. DRUM MAJORS I HAS ASSISTANT Marching with the band, his small feet keeping time with the music, Carl Acton won smiles from the crowd gathered to see the football game with Stanford. His head held high, grandly poised tif you can imagine a small boy in that conditionb he kept his eye on the drum major, carefully tak- ing in his every move and then doing as he did. What prompted Carl to march with the band? Was it a desire to have the honor of keeping step I'??Slde the pretty sponsor smoth- ered in flowers? Wise Carl! But Carl marched with the band last year. No, he is too young for any- thing like that. Could it be that he pictures himself, fand who doesn'tJ, as tall, proud, in a glor- ious uniform, leading a band. Perhaps-ah, maybe that's it! He feels a thrill just to be there, knowing that he is doing his small bit for the boys on the field. Why does Sunny McGowan spend so much time at Bryce Mc- Mullins? Perhaps it's the little curly head next door. Carrie and Pershing seem to be progressing in a big way. RESERVES BEST MORELAND, 8 TO 6 Coach Terry Grifi'in's Reserves opened their season Thursday af- ternoon by handing the Moreland eleven an 8 to 6 defeat in a closely fought contest. The Reserves started off with a bang and scored in the first quar- ter, but were held after that, and Moreland tied the count six all in the second frame. Neither team was able to gain much and finally Danville won out in the last quarter when the Moreland center made a bad pass from center which went over the quarterback's head, and when he recovered the ball he was caught for a safety and two points. 'IThose players who performed for the Reserves were: Wilkinson, Kelsay, Bradshaw, Ferrell, Cald- well, Colyer, Hollinsworth, Liege, Jones, Welsh, Young, Foley, John- son, Kirby, Perros, Bob Cress, Jim Cress, Newall and Litton. il GILCHER HOTEL A Good Hotel In A Good Town.
