Assemblies The players of the Huckleberry Finn cast were introduced to the junior and senior assemblies on October 21 and 22 respectively.. Dr. Tom Talbott, as guest speak- er at the senior assembly, deliv- ered a humorous talk on October 24. In carrying out the spirit of Hallowe'en, Mildred Guthrie and Princess Smith entertained the junior assembly on October 28 with Hallowe'en recitations. Prior to Danville High's home- coming game with Male, a pep rally was held on October 30. Coach Mountjoy and several play- ers gave short talks, and the as- sembly was led in cheers by the cheerleaders. Eleanor Rubin entertained the senior assembly, November 8, with a group of violin selections. On November 11, Mr. J. Sterling Towles addressed the junior as- sembly. Mr. Towles' subject was Armistice Day. In a short senior assembly, held on November 15, Dr. Tinder of the Richmond Christian Church, who is conducting a revival here, gave an inspirational talk. The Mechanical Man Was he man or dummy? Believe it or not, he was a man, born in Yellowstone National Park thirty eight years ago. Mr. Jay Cody, the person in question, appeared at Freeman's Furniture Store on November 7, 8, and 9. Mr. Cody, better known as Marvo, has held for fourteen consecutive years the world's rec- ord for self-control. When inter- viewed, he said that his secret was, I abstain from drinking, smoke very little, sleep in a tent 365 days a year, get from eight to ten hours of sleep a day, and walk about ten miles a day. Besides demonstrating his self- control, Mr. Cody and his wife own a group of trained dogs, and together they do dare-devil stunts. Another one of Mr. Cody's accomplishments is the art of make-up. Mar'vo said that while in Hollywood two years ago, he made-up more than two hun- dred of the leading actors and actresses. Mr. and Mrs. Cody make their home in Niagara Falls, New York. - -use 1. .-an-.. - ' itching' SENIORS, JUNIORS HEAR DR. CADMAN The seniors and juniors of Dan- ville High School accepted the in- vitation, extended by Centre Col- lege, to hear Dr. S. Parkes Cad- man on November 6. Dr. Cadman addressed a convocation of stu- dents and townspeople at the Christian church. Dr. Cadman, who is one of the best known clergymen of the na- tion and the radio speaker of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America, spoke on The Uses of Imagination. He stressed the fact that with the imagination one is able to achieve his ambitions. Dr. Cadman also talked at length on the need for parents to encourage the imagin- ation possessed by their children. He further brought out the fact that great artists, authors, and composers have produced their finest masterpieces through the aid of their imagination. Following his talk, the lecturer answered several questions asked by mem- bers of his audience. ELLIOTT JAMES TO GIVE PROGRAM Elliott James, nationally known speaker, will give a program en- titled Wonders of Liquid Air, in the high school auditorium, Thurs- day morning, December 12. In this program he will demonstrate the practical uses of liquid air, and the peculiar qualities given var- ious -substances when subjected to its freezing contact. Using an interesting spread of laboratory equipment, he places kerosene oil in a tube and solidi- ties it so that it may be used as a candle. Again, with liquid air. mercury is frozen on the end of a handle and is used as a hammer to drive nails. Raw beefsteak when thus treated and dropped on the floor shatters like glass. This program, sponsored by the Science Club, is very interesting and humorous and will be enjoyed by all. A small admission price will be charged. Mr. Woford: What is HNO3? Edgar Doty: Oh, er, er-it's right on the tip of my tongue. Mr. Woford: Well, spit it out. I'.'s nitric acid. THIRD TREET BARBER SHOP Will Appreciate Your Patronage xxxxxxxxxxxntt ...........

DOWN READ ST. XAVIER OUR ADS VOLUME VII DANVILLE, KENTUCKY, THURSDAY, NOV. 21, 1935. NUMBER 3 THE LOG ENTERS ST l. P. A. CONTEST Editor Madison Lee To Represent School at Convention This year, for the first time, The Log has been entered in the annual publications contest of the Southern Interscholastic P1'ess Association. Editor Madison Lee will represent the paper at the S. I. P. A. convention, which is being held this week at Washing- ton and Lee University. The Log is placed in Class C of the contest, which is for schools having an enrollment of 300-800 pupils. One of the requirements for entering the contest is that a publication must be represented by a delegate at the convention. Friday and Saturday of this week are the dates of this conven- tion, which is under the sponsor- ship of the Lee School of Journal- ism, a department of Washington and Lee University. Among the nationally known men who will take part in the program are Mark Ethridge, Sylvan Hoffman, Dr. Francis P. Gaines, George Mc- Manus, and C. C. Harvey. Features of the convention are: round table discussions of prac- fContinued on Page Twoj ORDER GIVEN FOR CLASS RINGS, PINS The first order of rings and pins has been made. In accordance with the custom here at Danville High School, most of the rings and pins were ordered by juniors. Those seniors who failed to order last year had the opportunity of get- ting a ring or pin at this time. Forty-four rings and seven pins were purchased in the order. In recent meetings of the classes of '37, '38, and '39, the standard ring and pin which have been of- ficial for the last few y-ears were readopted. The rings are of ten carat gold. The pins have a year date guard attached to them. MUSIC SLPERVISORS DAVID WELCH CATHERINE MATHIS St. Xavier ls Last Contest For Fifteen Danville High Gridders .. ... , Tomorrow, on the local field, the Danville Admirals will meet the Tigers of St. Xavier in the last scheduled game of the season. This contest will be the last appearance on a high school eleven of eight of tomorrow's probable starting line-up. The first string boys who are playing their last game for Danville High School are Whar- ton Allen, quarterback, Carlyle Johnson, halfbackg Dick Foster, fullbackg Joe Brown, center, Hor- ace Hendren, guard: Jack Luns- ford, tackle. A. R. Leathers, endg and Ralph Love, end. This is also the last game for several other members of the squad. Those others who will turn in their uni- forms for the last time are Joe Campbell, tackle: Glen Shearer, endg John Sullivan, center, and John Kelly, end. Three other members have already been lost: Joe Frankel and George Kapralis by injuries, and Buster Clarkson. who has passed the age limit. According to reports, the St. Xavier gridders will outweigh those of Danville by about five pounds per man. This will be a disadvantage for the Admirals to overcome, especially' if the field is wet. The outcome of the game is hard to predict. Judging from the St. Xavier-Male and the Male- Danville games, the Tigers are three points better than the Ad- mirals. However, if prediction is made on the St. Xavier-Manual and Manual-Danville games, the Admirals are twenty-seven points better than the Tigers. From these comparisons it can be seen that the dope bucket is a very un- certain thing, and may be upset at any time. Last year the Admirals were the under dogs, but came through to win by the score of 13-6. ANNUAL OP RETT CAST IS . ELECTED Rehearsals of The Belle of Bag- dad Are Held Regularly, After much work and many try-- outs, the cast for this year's op- eretta, The Belle of Bagdad, was finally selected by the judges. The production will be given by the Mixed Glee Club in the high school auditorium on December 5 and 6. Rehearsals for the operetta are being held regularly, and much interest is being shown in the working out of various choruses. The members of the cast were selected carefully and it is felt that each one fits his or her part admirably. The production this year promises to be one of the best ever offered by the Glee Club of Danville High School. Those chosen for parts in The Belle of Bagdad were: Dick Tay- lor, from the Super-Supreme Film Co., Wharton Allen, Jewel, the Caliph's favorite daughter, Irene Pope, Mrs. J. Horace McCann, New American consul in Bagdad, Jean Marie Mcfionnellg Elsa McCann, her daughter, Mary Munng Anne Blackwell, a friend of Elsa's, Helen Preston: Archie Fitzgib- ttiontmued on Page Twoj OFFICERS ELECTED FOR FOUR CLASSES All four high school classes have now met and selected their ofiicers for the school year 1935- 36, the freshman class election having been held week before last.

THE LOG 3 : Seen f - lllhile KM Roaming Win. 3 O. O. lVIcFoster It is rarely ever that the foot- ball squad gets to say anything to the student body as a whole, but I would like to take this op- portunity to do so on our behalf. Although our season has been far from a successful one, Coach and Mr. Woford have worked with us as hard as if we were state champs. Mr, Sanford has arrang- ed several very nice trips for us and the faculty has cooperated in every way to help keep all mem- bers of the squad eligible. The student body has supported us ably in all games. We appreciate this very- much and are sorry that we have not won more games than we have. Speaking of football trips, Mr. Huffman seems to enjoy them very much along wtih some other members of the faculty. Ask him about the red head in Middles- boro. Mr. Huffman's neck got sore from looking at her over the back was men- the things trip, Mr. have to of his chair. When it tioned about writing up that happened on the Sanford said he might censor the wisecracks. Wonder why? After Mr. Foley had expended a great deal of energy in putting up the pictures of the outstand- ing writers of today, a seventh grader came up and asked, Mi: Foley, why are you putting up all these pictures of gangsters ? The little man, Harold Reynierson, gets a big cigar. What's your choice for Oompah? Minc's Pete the Tramp with Tar- mxzxxxzzx SENIORS If you want to have some zan of the Apes a close second. Suggestions on how to become a millionaire: get a monopoly on selling- sheets to followers of Mahatma Ghandi or selling shoes to the Ethiopian army. If neither of these work, try saving your money. Snapshots-William Thurmond sunburning the roof of his mouth looking at the sights in Middles- boro . . . C. Caldwell and Jack Guerrant courting at the picture show with K. C. W. girls. Jack and his date got up and moved after Miss Robin-son was discover- ed sitting behind them . . . Carlyle Johnson coming to school at 7:30 in the morning so that he can talk to Sarah Marguerite some time before school starts . . . Porter and Horace arguing over Mary Rus- sell. It is threatening to disrupt the football team. Many of the remarks found ir. this column are not original, but what I have heard I am pas-sing on to you in hopes you will enjoy them as much as I did. After hearing Mr. Huffman say that he was looking for his cousin. when asked what he was doing in Terrace Court at i A. M., I say, Goodnite and g'wan to bed. What's this we hear about a jun- ior girl riding in a stolen car with a strange boy Sunday night? We were certainly surprised. Nancy. We understand that Mary Munn has been given a picture of Jakie Inman. Careful. Guy! P. T. A. Notes The regular monthly meeting of the P. T. A. was held November 6, at the I-iigh School auditorium. Mr. T. A. Sanford was the speaker for the occasion, and delivered a very- interesting talk on The In- fluence of the School Upon The Child. Friend of Mine was sung by Mrs. Hughes Jackson. who was accompanied at the piano by Mrs. Nancy Williams. Reports from the district P. T. A. confer- ence, held at Frankfort, were given by Mrs. J. N. Frankel and Mrs. James Sheehan. The P. T. A. sponsored a series of lectures by Mrs, A. B. Sawyer of Louisville on Psychologists Study of Youth. The lectures were given on November 7 and 8 at the Danville High School audi- torium, and were well attended by members of the organization and others interested. Each lecture was frllowed by a general discus-sion of the subject.

A., was herld on Hallowe'en night, October 31, in the high school gymnasium. The gym was decorated with Jap- anese lanterns, crepe paper, and corn stalks. The various booths provided entertainment for every one. Music was furnished for dancing by the high school or- chestra. The party was brought to a close- by a grand march, which was led by Joe Lovell and Norma McKinney. Prizes were given for the funniest and prettiest cos- tumes. 'l I l l l I !
