Vol. 212, No. 27 Alakross Thenation, Nostalgia Sweeps Over High School Far-out, Cool, Groovy, cute as a bee ' s knee. Peach-keen, and Cat ' s pajamas. These were adjectives describing Madison High School stu- dents as they went headlong into Nostalgia Day, October 18, 1974, to Friday, October 18, 1920-1930-1940 and up to the early 60 ' s. The girls ' skirts went down while the boys ' pants went up. Greased-back hair for the guys and ponytails for the girls were the In things. Ruby-red lipstick adorned the lips of many girls (and a few guys ' cheeks, I might add,) while the tough guys had broken hearts and Mom tattooed all over their arms. At one o ' clock the cheer- leaders held a snappy pep assembly with everyone pop- ping gum to the music and waiting for the sho-bob- ing to begin. The action was led by the King of Kings himself, Val Christensen. Later that night after the football game, students camebackto the high school to practice the Jitterbug, the Monday, The Bird, and all the other old dances that Brother Parker taught his seminary classes. Winning the dance con- test was Brother Parker WASHINGTON (AP)- Next year ' s Democratic ticket will be Sen. Hubert Humphrey and Jimmy Car- ter, a poll of 162 members of the Democratic National Committee indicates. and Sister Hawkes doing the Twist. Nostalgia Day was loads of laughs but now everyone is back to normal, wear- ing grubby levis and having their long hair in their eyes. You know, the normal every- day 74-74 thing. A LOOK AT MADISON ' S PAST Did you know that in 1927 Madison High was without a school song? Well, the students decided to hold a contest and offer prizes for the best song. The prizes were $5.00 for first prize and $2.50 for second prize. That was a lot of money in those days. Several songs were enter- ed. They then held an assem- bly and different groups sang each one of the songs. Our own Alma Mater won! The authoress was Miss Donetta Parker. Here is the winning song.

Can you imagine all the people who have attended Madison High these forty- eight years, who have stood and cheered and have sung that in the spirit which it was intended?

Closest competitor to the Minnesota senator was Sen. Henry M. Jackson of Wash- ington with 14 percent, followed by Sen. Edward M. It is in the mutual inter- est of both the Soviet Union and the United States to reduce the tension. The United States recognizes that in the final settlement of the Middle East, the Soviet role will be impor- tant, he said. Kissinger ' s comments came as Con- gress considered tying re- strictions aimed at pre- venting U.S. involvement in a Mideast war to any approval of having U.S. technicians monitor the Sinai accord. One restriction, proposed by Sen. Frank Church, D- Idaho, would be to pull out the technicians if war erupts. The second would enable Congress to withdraw the technicians at any time. Chairman Thomas E. Morgan, D-Pa., of the House International Relations Committee said House and Senate staff aides are work- ing on language for the two proposals and Church ' s office confirmed that Senate aides are drafting language for both proposals. Volleyball Team Gathers Steam Coaching for three years at Woodriver High in Hailey has helped Mrs. Blakely to be a good coach. She is coaching the girls ' volley- ball team this year. The girls are excited to get to play in inter-school athletics. There are 18 to 20 girls on | the team. Julie Nelson and Collette Jenkins are cap- tains.

U.S.A. 74-76 Price fifteen cents NEW STUDENT MADE WELCOME CIA ADMITS IT SECRETLY FUNDED LSD EXPERIMENTS In the early morning hours of April 21, a new face greeted high school students who were eager to return to their studies after a weekend of bore- dom. Mr. J. B. Big Boy, who is well-known in the community, joined our school as a new member of the faculty. The first thought that ran through many bril- liant minds as they caught a glimpse of the smiling face atop the building, was that the cafeteria had taken our many help ful suggestions seriously. Obviously, he was their Delayed by a late spring, Madison ' s track- sters have been slow in getting out on the cin- der. However, in a tri- meet with South Fre- mont and Rigby, Madi- son came out smelling like a fresh spring rose as the final scores reflec- ted Madison 76 points, Rigby 40, and South Fremont with 29. Madison showed their prominence as they fin- ished one and two in many events. Brett Sum- mers and Bart Stevens finished the 440-yard dash placing 1st and 2nd. In the middle distances Brad Nye and Jeff Zab- riskie finished in tandem ahead of the South Fre- mont and Rigby runners. Kelly Hillman and Brett Summers also made a combo sweep of tossing the discus as they won first and second spots. way oi lettmg the amers in on their secret. It ' s very disappointing that Mr. Big Boy isn ' t qualified to educate us. His lectures must be very entertaining, and his tests delicious. Mr. Big Boy refused to make any statements as to whether or not he would care to change from his present occupation. The names of the stu- dents who persuaded Mr. Big Boy to become a member of our wonderful school are being with- held until further notice. As usual, the students will be the last to know. Individual winners were Brad Marlor in the 330- yard hurdles in a gruel- ing race with Rigby as they ended in a tie. Kent Sutton and Scott Bailey finished second and third in the mile run finishing only 1.5 seconds apart from each other. Randy Ricks received a number one mark as he blazed through the 220-yard dash. Andy Fujimoto out-heaved the shot put over his competitors by some 13 feet as he took the shot-put. Warmer weather is moving in so track can move outside more and the thinclads can shave time off and improve their distances. Gem State Invitational got under way the 18th of April in Ravesten Sta- dium in Idaho Falls. Com- petition as tough as all schools from Pocatello WASHINGTON (AP)-The CIA says it secretly funded more than 30 universities and institutions that con- ducted experiments with LSD and other drugs during the 1950 ' s and ' 60 ' s. At one of the institutions, drug addicts undergoing re- habilitation were given dos- es of their preferred narcot- ics as a reward for partici- pating in the CIA-funded experiments, according to sworn testimony before a Senate Subcommittee Friday. Inmates at the National Institute of Mental Health ' s Addiction Rpsparrh Center to South Fremont and from Salmon to Afton, Wyoming were repre- sented. Steve Danielson whose specialities are the 100- yd. dash and 220 erased his previous best time for the year as he cut his 100 time down to 10.4. Steve pulled third in the Invitational and received a medal. Patricia Hearst Hunt Ends in Capture SAN FRANCISCO (AP)- Her long and violent jour- ney into the underground at an end, Patricia Hearst sent a message to her rad- ical comrades today that her revolutionary zeal remained unchecked. Tell everyone that she ' s smiling, that she feels free and strong and sends her greetings to the brothers and sisters out there, said her attorney, Terrence Hallinan. in Lexington, Ky., were given their choice of drugs or time oft their sentences. But since the inmate were all drug addicts the majority chose narcotics, said Ed- ward M. Flowers, now a drug counselor. Carl Duckett, head of the CIA ' s Office of Science and Technology, confirmed that the CIA had funded the Lex- ington experiments from 1953 to 1962, using the Of- fice of Naval Research as an intermediary. James Henderson Childs, a former addict, said he received doses of morphine for his participation in experiments at Lexington in 1951 when they were funded directly by the Navy. I ' d tell them hit me in my vein, with the morphine, Childs said. That was the payoft.

FBI officials stressed the capture was the product of solid investigation al- though one agent familiar with the case said that it was not known in advance that Miss Hearst actually would be inside the resi- dence raided by police and the FBI on Thursday. As the story of the steps leading to the capture began to emerge today, it appeared that the action was a com- bination of diligent police work and good fortune.
