Snelling to show the history and social living classes slides of New England and California. What a change from all the books-! My destination is Lake Champlain! The advisory committee of the yearbook is getting down to business with write-ups. The business managers have been on their toes and have the advertising section nearly completed. The first batch of material gets off to the printer! The juniors, sophomores, and freshmen are rehearsing daily for their one-act plays and they ought to have a whale of a time.

Four gallons of ice cream, and I hardly got a taste! If spring Weren't just around the corner, we juniors could have another ice-cream social.

Hungry? per. The proceeds will be added to a fund for the senior class trip. Mr. Glen Rodgers, who now lives in Havre De Grace, Maryland, has invited the seniors there during April vacation and has provided lodgings for everyone. Leave it to faithful Mr. Ilodgersl I believe Miss Gross is getting smothered! The Grzflierw' pictures arrived, and she's the most popular girl in school. It's lucky these things don't happen every day. Anyone for some money T The Island Chamber ol' Commerce is sponsoring an essay contest on the subject. Why Deer Isle Needs a Chamber ol' Commerce. Anyone in high school may submit essays. and a few students are taking advantage of the oppor- tunity. l'll die ol' heart failure il' this continues much longer. Oh, no! We've lost in a sudden death. To think that we beat the Mustangs twice in the regular season only to lose in the play-oil! Strip film today? We won! We won and we're going to Ban- gor! !! The ball started rolling after We beat Brooks at Ellsworth. Cheerleaders made new pompoms and a hoop for the boys to crash through before starting their warm-up ses- sion. A rally was held to give the boys a good send-oif. Why couldn't they get going? They played better than that against Brooks. It was an- other loss to Mount Desert., but we were proud that Deer Isle got into the tournament anyway. They showed good sportsmanship and won two glittering trophies for being Hancock County Champs and for beating the Waldo County Champs. lncidentally, the girls shouldn't be over- looked. They nearly beat Husson twice, and they won two victories from lillsworth, plus wins over smaller schools. Their average of sixty points per game was pretty high for girls' play.

The senior mothers are helping out im- mensely, an-d over sixty-seven dollars was earned from one supper alone. Mr. Glen Rodgers was here and talked with the seniors. He told of several places in Washington and near his town that they would enjoy visiting on their class trip. What a talk he gave in -assembly on Aberdeen High School! Everyone was on edge as he told of his teaching and the students there. It won't be long now. Here's the end of the third quarter. aoafzffa Qualzim The pace speeds up as we move into the final quarter. Our publicity gal! Eager-looking junior-high students are awaiting a trip to Augusta.. Some will be seeing the State House, the Blaine Mansion, and other points of interest for the first time. Movies like those we have had lately on Texas, Wyoming, and Nevada are a relief after having studied the Maine Constitution these last few weeks. We get strip films fair- ly regularly too. We'll be plunging into our United States history books again and ab- sorbing World Wa.r II. Some of us are glad we're not seniors. They've been digging for money all year, and graduation announcements just came! Soon they'll be paying for caps and gowns. See what's coming next year, juniors? Basketball season isn't over yet for the boys. The varsity team and several of the J ayvees are still practicing regularly with Mr. Gott and will get time out from school to travel to Togus and compete in the De Molay Tournament.
