BEAT HEN RY CLAY TI-IE Loe GET MORE SCRAP VOLUME XIV DANVILLE. KENTUCKY, FRIDAY. OCTOBER 16. 1942 NUMBER 1 OUR DAZlE Time marches on! Another year brings co-editors to The Log who will present miniatures of school life in this column, Our Daze. ,lf if III IF if Room number 2 doesn't seem the same now. For many years it was occupied by Miss Pansy Dinkle, who was head of the English department. All students who had Miss Dinkle as an Eng- lish teacher should consider themselves very fortunate. i if ik if lk if 'LBeetle Toombs, an Admiral of days gone by, is back on the field again. Taking Mr. Soper's place as the reserve coach, he is turning out a tough squad of Baby Blues, that are a threat to any team. Beetle has become a by-word to the reserves. SF if 4' 1' 4' Four leading members of the senior class are away at school this year. Jessie Allen is taking both high school and college courses at Montreat College in North Carolina. Nancibel Riffe, a leader in the student council, is finishing high school at Kem- per Hall in Wisconsin. Jimmy Phelps, 1940 drum major, has moved to Dayton, Ohio. One of our cheer-leaders, Jimmy Stagg, is at school in Washington, D. C. preparing for the United States Military Academy. Good luck chums! 3 41 ik if Dk Last year Stratton Lee and Joan Farris, both juniors, were chosen laboratory assistants by Mr. Wof- ord. When this fall rolled around, Stratton had gone away to col- lege and Joan did not have a free period. Billy Silliman, back from a year at Castle Heights Military Academy, and Carlton Brown were selected to fill their places in the chemistry department.

Citation For 9-3 Girls The 8-3 girls of 1941-42, who are the present 9-3 girls of Dan- ville High School could tell, if they would, how breaking a rule in school has won for them a cita- tion of appreciation from Henry Morgenthau, Jr., Secretary of the Treasury of the United States government. Upon unanimous agreement last semester any girl reprimand- ed for unnecessary talking dur- ing class period paid one penny for the offense. These pennies grew into the amazing sum of five dollars which was invested in war stamps and sent to Wash- ington as a gift to help the gov- ernment slap the Japs and kick the Axis back to their own back yards. Talking out of turn in a class period, ordinarily, in any well regulated school, is a nuisance and a serious offense, but this notable class of girls has convert- ed a fault into a national asset. The names of these patriotic disturbers with their unquench- able flair for conversation can be learned from Ada Edmiston, secretary of the group. School Children Give Stacks Of Scrap ' On October 12 Danville city school children contributed six tons of scrap metal when they were admitted to a picture show sponsored by Mr. Richard Peffley, manager of the Kentucky Thea- tre. All schools were dismissed for the day to aid in the scrap metal drive that is being held rin the state. Many unusual and interesting articles were collected, ranging from a flint musket contributed by a student, to a five pound cow bell, the gift of one of the mem- bers of the Danville High School faculty. M. RO CLUB ELECTS OFFICERS At noon on Wednesday, October 7, the Ro Club held their annual election, selecting Lefty Allen as president for the school year. Mr. Boyd, the sponsor, an- nounced that the other officers chosen were Joe Blankinship, vice-president and Barrington Kinnaird, secretary-treasurer. The board of directors welcom- ed two new members, Lee Guth- rie and Carlton Brown. I Eight Teachers Join Faculty Sheehan, Tucker, Elliot, Callahan, Bright, Rosen, May, Owens Instruct Eight new teachers are added to the Danville High faculty this- fall. They are the Misses Janet Elliot, Anne Sheehan, Marjorie Bright, Mildred May, Ruth Tuck- er, Mrs. Elizabeth Rosen, Messrs, Lawrence Callahan and W. H. Owens.

She graduated from Eastern State Teacher's College in 1940 with a B. S. degree.
