This is .the first time the school has had lockers of any kind in the Physi- cal Education Department, ' Twenty-two lockers were built ln the Bouth room. They measure thirty inches deep by twelve ln- ohes wide and stand about three feet high, They are large enough for two boys' equipment. - Within the next two weeks our plan ls to build, about thirty additional lockers in the North shower room, These will be ade- quate enough to take care of the boys in basketball and Physical Education ' in the junior high classes.

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.

SIXTH GRADE IN CHARGE OF SCHOOL SAFETY PATROL Under Mrs. Shook's Supervision Boys Great Help to Students Through Safety Campaign. The sixth grade Safety Patrol Boys deal primarily with traffic safety for the grade children of our school: however, they are 'alert for the general safety of the pupils in the school building and on the playground. we feel that qualities of leadership and citizenship are developed through patrol service. The patrol movement was first launched in Chicago in a joint experiment with the Police ,De- partment and Chicago Motor Club, and has spread to all city and rural districts in this country. The Motor Club furnishes us with our belts, badges, arm bends, and 'Certificates of Award' free 'of charge. This year the Wednesday After- noon Club and the local chapter of Psi Iota Xi Sorority have furnished funds for reincoats and cape helmets which have been or- tnis gift wear long dered. We appreciate for most boys do not raincoats for general wear, and when they they are badly needed have to stand several minutes at a time in very bad weather. These patrol members wearing their white belts do not escort the children across the street or stop traffic to allow the chil- dren to pass for they are not policemen, but they serve to keep children on the sidewalk until the traffic crossing. ls clear for their At the end of the school year a recognition ceremony is held st are given those who which awards have served faithfully and satis- factorily during the school year. The boys wish to thank the motorists of our community who have so courteously observed their signs in the school zone. Gen. John J. Pershing. Comman- der of the A. E. F. has said, 'I am intensely interested in this school patrol movement. I have observed these youngsters at their posts of duty from coast to coast and believe they are not only a fine thing from the stand- point of national safety but are receiving splendid training in c1tizenshiD.'
