Orchids to Miss Kercneval for her eye-catching earrings, even though Mr. Hall doesn't apprecip ate them. Orchids to the Goodlander Sisters for being courageous enough to attempt to glamorize the Seniors--at the expense of their camera. Orchids to the Navy Department for allowing a certain sailor a furlough and cheering up Rosemary Hollowell. She was gg sad!! Thorns to the boys who cause fights and arguments on .school buses.-.Part1cularly Bob Martin's bus. I wonder do all of the buses have so many of them??? Orchids to the basketball boys and Mr. Hall for giving up their valuable practice period to move the new refrigerator into the cafeteria. I , Thorns to that first row of ,trumpets for disturbing the peace and solitude of the rest of the trumpet section by chattering so tmuch. Orchids to Mrs. Brueckheimer for barring various members of that well meaning but egotistical mechanical drawing class from lending their valuable assistance to advanced art class the eighth period. Thorns to the little stork that set the wheels of fate in motion some twenty years ago this month againstthepoor defenseless little dollles in bookkeeping class. U Orchids to Margaret Cduins for being tescher's little helper and informing Mr. Ross concerning the ink upon his face. 'Thorns to the boys who enjoy showing their pretty legs by rolling up their pants legs. ' Orchids to those fellows .who offered their blood for a trans- fusion to aid Charlie Gumpf -Spee cial orchids to Karl Dix, whose blood was used. We all hope that Charlie soon recovers.

CHUMBS AND CRACKERS In order to take a history test--the Junior Class would like to know who discovered American and by the way, when is Columbus Day? n Those students s1ttlnS in the North West corner of assembly would appreciate the school buy- ing them each a fly swatter.

A ETOW' ing romance? wanted: Mrs. Eastmen has ex- pressed her desire for a- small room where she may isolate her- self from everybody for 15 minutes every day. Bookkeeping worries overl!!! Mary Dickson highly recommends 'omitting any entry you don't understand and then forgetting about lt. It probably wasn't important anyway--at least not until it is time to balance the books. E. H. S. Students have the queerest dreams. A certain Sophomore girl dreamed E. H. S. was giving a play of ancient times. It seems Mr. Gibson was playing the part of Hercules and Shirley Lambert was a night-club singer. As I .recall the scene, Hercules lMr. Gibson! was stand- ing with outstretched arms while the ni ht-club singer Cshirley Lambert? was singing to him accompanied by Mrs. Lafollette on the piano. Alas, my story ends, she awakened. ' Anybody wishing to go to a ball game please- notify Ralph Medsker immediately for seating reservations. You will be as- sured of a good seat going and coming. His slogan ls The more the merr1er.' A little bird told me that the ACHNP Fire Girls had some very exquisite visitors Tuesday night AOct. 17. I uess the 8 re are fellow members of the organ- ization now. A man in a Clvll Air Patrol Uniform stood outside the door talking to Mr. Gibsons Tuesday. Suddenly a howl broke out from the bookkeeping class.--And I thought men were the only wolves! Jack R., I understand there is an extra typewriter in the com- mercial room, maybe you could arrange to have it put on your desk in the assembly, that way you wouldn't have to keep the stairs so hot taking passes up each period! . Gee, I wish I were a student at Selma--no school until Novem- ber l. I surely could use some sleep. Jane Norrick and one of the other numerous pupils in short- hand class seemed to have swal- lowed a feather Friday the 15th. and laughed hysterically thereby disturbing the entire class, but aided their digestion--we hope. News came over the wires about the wreck Sunday night, Oct. 15, but beleive it or notg Monday morning the victims, though slightly bruised, managed to come to school.

During' the first week in Oc- tober, the Atsletic Department of Eaton High School installed a new game on the playground. Through the combined efforts of several Junior-high boys and the physical education classes the court was constructed. The game of Wgoal-hin was de- vised by Dr. NPhogH Allen of Kan- sas University as a build-up for basketball. It is played on a circular court with the hoop placed in the center of the court. Manytypes of games can be played, but the old standby, played with basketball rules, proves the most popular. ' During the winter months the standard can be placed on rubber mats and used in the ,8YmUaSium- It is our hope that the game will help some of our future ban players have a keener eye for the basket, and also teach them that it can be fun to play the Same- SCHOOL PROFITS 3105.55 ON CURTIS MAGAZINE SALES Jackson And Cochran Receive Certificates For Magazine Sales For the magazine sales this year Miles Jackson was chosen manager.

i muon scnoot my av mor Z f ! :::i Honda , October 2 'Easy starts the second month of school. Students sighed with. greet relief after all tests were over .and are anxiously awaiting grade cards. The magazine and school paper sales closed today. Mrs. Wallace is back with us. I don't know what Ilah Ad- dington and Margaret Collins got into it about, but they certainly were making a big commotion at the back of the school grounds when they hooked bumpers!!! Tuesday, October Q The Juniors and Seniors held class meetings this morning. The Seniors decided what they would do about the Annual which will be- published in the Spring. The Juniors decided to dig down deep in their pockets and have class dues! Mr. Ross's afternoon classes did not meet today. Anyone having any questions about his assignment or the HSUKW of Health,' just ask Jane Joslin. She knows all the answers. Wednesda , October 4 U Eday was an Exciting day, especially for the 7th and 8th graders. For instance, Mrs. Wallacs's sixth period assembly almost turned into an airplane landing field when all kinds of paper planes---P-58's, B-29's, B-24's, etc. zoomed through the air. Everyone had an innocent look on his face when she looked up. Finally when Mr. Gibson took over, their operators were popping up all over the placej!!! Inci- dsntally some of the victims were starting Jr. High players so instead of playing baseball they sat peacefully !?J in the office the rest of the afternoon. The remainder of the Jr. High boys were forced to carry on without them. Perhaps this is the reason we really have so few discipline difficulties in Eaton High. Thursday, October 2 The first period today each row in the assembly passed to the beck where ,Wilma Brinson and Frances Vance gave each subscriber his school paper. Lots of sur- prised looks were on some stu- dent's feces and even the teacher's when they discovered what an improvement was made over papers of previous years. ,I think Rr. Hall should sing e solo in front of the assembly some'dey. kie was going down the hall today singing.

Miss Kercheval, Mrs. Boggy, Mrs. LaFol1ette, and Mrs. Eastman were escorted home safely C23 by a group of the Hbaseball fansu after LHB game. By the way, did anyone near whether or not Mrs. Eastman ever found that first inning? Tuesday, October lg Baseball is over now and no more classes cut. Mytll New books are on the shelves in the library and are available for reading--if you are, lucky enough to get there first. wednesday, October ll Gene Poe is really getting Wrugged.' First it is murder, and now Mrs. Wallace accuses him of taking ner car keys--as a Joke. Looking for them, he gave Room 17 a thorough cleaning--even climbed up to DHS chandelier. He didn't keys but now we know find the where all the erasers are. October 12 Thursday, - We had a nine o'clock today. He stressed the giving to the United War Fund. the Good- speaker idea of The Seniors will give lander Sisters a break Monde fthe cameras will probably break? when they go to let them take their pictures. ' Friday, October 15 Bad luck didnw seem to,bother E.H.S. this Friday the 15th. so much. The Typing classes were sort of upset when they made some mistakes but they said, 'Oh, well we wouldn't' make them any other day.' CTD Monday, October lg e Seniors were all dressed up in their WSunday go to meetlnu clothes to go to Muncie and have their pictures taken.
