I i -. , I ADMIRALS BEAT CORBIN Tl-IE LOC READ OUR ADS. VOLUME VII, DANVILLE, KENTUCKY, THURSDAY, SEPT. 26, 1935 NUMBER 1. TWO ADDED T0 D. H. S. FA ULTY Allen Edwards and Mary Virginia Wood Centre Graduates This year Danville High School welcomes to her faculty' two new members, Mr. Allen Edwards and Miss Mary Virginia Wood. Mr. Edwards, a graduate or Danville High School, received his A. B. degree at Centre last year. While in college, he majored in history and social science. Mr. Ed- wards, who will be late in start- ing because of an appendicitis op- eration, is teaching in the social science department. Miss Wood, an alumna of Dan- ville High School and a graduate of the class of '35 of Centre, has taken the position left vacant by the resignation of Miss Catherine Barnes of Somerset. Miss Wood is a part-time assistant of Miss Mathis, head of the music depart- ment. While in Centre, she studied under Miss Courtner, Mrs. Jay Harlan, and Mrs. Hughes Jackson. She will assist in vocal work. IMPROVEMENTS IN NEW SCHOOL YEAR When the students returned to school this fall, many improve- ments were noticed. The class- rooms of Mr. Grifiin, Miss Drake and Miss Hagan are now equipped with new desks. These desks are so arranged that the aisles are east and west, instead of north and south as the old ones were. This arrangement lessens fire haz- ard. They certainly are an im- provement over the old rickety, rattling, ones that were used by students of times gone by. The library has received an ap- propriation of 3450.00 from the school board, to use in the purchase of books. The total number of books is now 2,500. This meets the requirements of the Southern As- Continued on Page 2 New Teachers Mary Virginia Wood Allen Edwards tudent Government Organized, Allen, McMullen Chosen Leaders A modified form of student gov- ernment is the order of the day in Danville High School. During the first week of school Wharton Allen was elected president of the high school student body and Bry-ce McMullen was chosen leader of the junior high group. The junior high school has been ex- panded to include the ninth grade, the result being a strong and en- thusiastic student body. The student councils, composed of the elected members from each home room, are to meet monthly. The president of each student body, who is ex--officio chairman of his own -student council, will have charge of programs, introduction of speakers, and the reading of an- nouncements. The councils in their monthly meetings will plan assem- bly programs and discuss needed school improvements. , Members of the senior high school student council are: James Hewlett, Dorothy Coleman, Le- land Spoonamore, Joe Brown, Mil- dred Porter, Harold Huffman, Vir- ginia Coleman, and Jane Brown Members of the junior council are: Kenneth Ransdall, Ann Caldwell, Helen Spears, Scott Rogers, Wil- son Alexander, Princess Smith, Harold Reynierson, B. J. Robin- son, Mary B. Stith, and Helen Clark. ELLIOTT JAMES COMING HERE Mr. Elliott James, scientist, demonstrator, and speaker, who presented a program in the Hall of Science at the Century of Progress in '33 and '34, and has spoken be- fore many of the great educational institutions of the country, will give a program Thursday morn- ing, December 12th, in the audi- I CContinued on Page Twol THE 1935 - 36 SESSION OPENS Rev. H. B. Kuhnle Delivers Open- ing Address Sept. 3rd. On Tuesday, September 3rd, 552 students assembled in the Dan- ville High School auditorium to begin a ncw school year. Superin- tendent L. C. Bosley opened thc program with a short talk, and then introduced Reverend H. B. Kuhnle, pastor of the First Bap- tist Church, who gave a brief in- spirational address. Principal T. A. Sanford was introduced, amid the appreciative cheers of the student body. Mr. Sanford assigned the students to their various home- rooms, where schedules were ar- ranged. At the present time, the enroll- ment has increased to 579, and it 's possible that the number of stu- dents will reach the 600 mark be- fcre the year is over. Last year the largest enrollment at any one time during the year was 568. There are 75 in the present senior class, while last year there were 77, the largest graduating class in th history of the school. At the same time, it is interesting to note that the seventh grade has the largest, and the senior class the smallest number of pupils now enrolled. MANUAL TRAINING DEPT. EXTENDED A course in metal work, includ- ing both cold metal and art metal is the latest addition to the Man- ual Training Department. During the coming year, projects of art metal will consist of those made from brass and copper, such as ash trays, book ends, lanterns, and lamps. Projects made from cold metal will be those articles of band iron and sheet metal, such as camp stools, ferneries, and smok- fContinued on Page Twol l 1 Oo ,-I

2 THE LOG I - manua rainin e ar men an r NEW SPETION the reinainder gwiilpbet madte intb SCHOLARSHIP A new addition to the gymnas- ium building, long desired, has been started. The foundation has been erected with F. E. R. A. funds this summer, and an appli- cation has been made by the city of Danville for P. W. A. funds to complete this addition. Application was made for 3547,- 000, 321,000 of which will be a direct gift, and 826,000 a loan. When finished, the building will be rented to the school board by the city for sixteen years and then it will become the property of the school. The changes on the gymnasium building will consist of remodeled north and west entrances, and a three-story addition in the rear. On the ground floor of the new addition will be a new domestic science department, with the book- store. The science department with new laboratories will occupy most of the second floor. The third floor v.'ill have a sound--proof band room and a vocal music room with a small stage. A part of the old home eco- nomics room will be added to the L O O K F O L K S for A Short Time Only Photo Poses Minutes 1 0 C We Enlarge Old Snapshots LOCATED 3 DOORS WEST OF POST OFFICE showers.

The greatest scholastic honor that has come to a graduate of Danville High School in many years is the winning of the Jessie Preston Draper Memorial Scholar- ship to Harvard, by Welch Peel, graduate of the class of 'S5. This award, which includes all tuition, room, board, books, and other ex- penses, is particularly outstanding in that of the eleven awards made. Danville was the only town in Kentucky, the only town in the south, and the only small town high school to be represented. This honor was given on the basis of personal qualifications, scholastic records, and a competitive exam- ination. If the recipient makes good, the scholarship, slightly in- creased, is renewed for the suc- ceeding three years. While in Danville High School, Welch Peel was particularly active in extra-curricular activities. He was a member of the debate team for two years, associate editor of the Log, twice winner of the dis- trict extemporaneous speaking contest. and a member of the Dra- matic Club. He placed third in the state world history test in 1934, and was Senior Class Poet. He -'sn won first place in the National Scholastic Essay Contest in 1931 and was awarded the Rotary Scholarship to Centre. MONARCH CLEANERS DYERS .
