After the September issue came out dressed practically the same way as the last years’ papers, the October I li-Crier hit the street in a new dress which was rated the best 5-column front page makeup at the M. H. S. P. convention this spring. Four new faculty members were honored by having their pictures in this issue, with a headline as follows: Hopkins Welcomes New Members to Faculty. Mr. Morgan. Miss Eversull, Miss Avery and Miss Sher-ven arc the new members. The readers of the Hi-Cricr had a big surprise when the October issue came dressed in green paper and black type. Everyone agreed that it brought life to the paper, and showed up the headlines the members of the staff work hard to make perfect. Cupid took his bow in the November issue and warned the male students of leap year. The new sport section of this year appeared with headlines as fellows: Bcvcrs-dorf, Chastck in Top Ranks, meaning, these two stars of the Hopkins football team were chosen for the All-Conference team. The spirit of Christmas was in more than just the hearts of the students. The December Hi-Crier came all decked out in its Christmas “duds. Besides the green paper, corresponding green ink was used. Also, a large stocking appeared with students wishes for special Christmas presents. A Hi-Cricr quiz began in the January issue and some simple questions were asked. Yet, when students began these quizzes, they found them far from simple. The members of the Hopkins Board of Education were introduced to those not yet familiar to their names, and a little his tor)’ of each member was given. To end the suspense of many, the highest awards of the senior class were finally disclosed. The valcdictorianship was awarded to Lorraine Lapic and the salutatorianship to Dick Hagen. eJH-G UeA.
