A TAA! - 41.i:-'w-a4-'- . .,,. 1 Uhr Qlreat The establishment of The Crest, our semimonthly paper, marked the progress of Murray High one step farther up the ladder toward suc- cess. A semimonthly paper, even one as small as was planned for, was an undertaking for a school of only 382 students. The unanimous en- dorsement of the idea by the student body and the faculty gave the staff the encouragement they needed and a campaign for subscriptions was launched. The paper, thanks to the students, was run without ad- vertisements. The first issue was distributed November 1, and every- body voted it a successful number. Before many issues came out thc students made the paper their own and contributions were given vol- untarily. Too much cannot be said of the good to a school of a small news- paper. It has a tendency to unify, infuses new spirit into the students. class rivalry is started, new ideas of reform are brought before the stu- dents and activities are advertised. It is a medium whereby all stu- dents can be reached. The management of such a paper gives wonderful experience to a person. Practical experience is gained in collecting mate- rial, a good newspaper style of writing is developed and one certainly becomes observant when one is continually on the lookout for news. Murray High has done well to support this paper. We hope that next year will see a better, bigger paper at Murray. The editors wish to thank both the staff and student body for their wholehearted sup- port this year, and, to next year 's staff we say-- Success to you. JEL '. ??:'0-,al fl. - : V4.3-5 . .J I

I Murray City, Utah, December 1, 1919 No. 3 Big Dance, December 4th The student body will give a dance December 4th in the gymnasium. The committee is trying hard to make this dance a success, both socially as well as Hnancially. It has tried to get music that will please, By the way, they're going to have Evans' Jazz. Sounds good! The floor will be in good condition and of course there'1l be a good crowd. You'll all be there. Students, wear those togs everywhere you go, and help advertise. We want this dance to be the biggest kind of a success. A CHANCE FOR SOMEONE T0 SCORE. In Central Records Ofiice, France, A. E. F., a cartoonist produced a pic- ture nearly every day, suggesting something relative to C. R. O. car- toons indicating progress, sport, am- bition, work, humor, etc., were dis- played on a bulletin board where everyone could view them. Not only did these pictures furnish amusement for the men, but they had a tendency toward creating spirit, rivalry tfriendlyl and a desire for greater deeds to accomplish. Men looked for- ward with great anxiety to see the new productions. The writer wonders if there might be a cartoonist in this high school and if this suggests anything to a real, live student body? BASKET BALL Now that the football season has ended basketball season begins. There are about thirty-five men taking the preliminary training, which consists of long cross-country runs and basket shooting. The men are interested in their work and are working earnestly. Because of the large number of men trying out it will necessitate hard work to make the team. OUR SCHOOL If you go to the kind of a school That's the kind of a school you like, You don't have to slip your clothes in ' a grip And start on a long, long hike. You'll only iind what you've left be- hind, For there's nothing really new, It's a knock at your self if you knock your schoolg For it isn't your school, it's you. Real schools are not made by students afraid, Lest somebody else gets ahead: If everyone works and nobody shirks, You can raise a school from the dead. And if, while you make your personal Stake, Your neighbor makes one, toog Your school will be what you want to see, For it isn't your school, it's you. 325515.

Surely this party will go down in the history of the Senior class, for who could forget the hit that Mr. Gardner made when he donned the neat and nifty fudge apron, or the boys' display of their culinary art. Only one balked when he was tenderly asked to Wash the dishes, but the girls said he was justified in doing so. Woiidei' who it was and why? Well, We Won't tell on you, ah-Mr.-excuse meg no, we Won't tell. It was whispered about that some of the Seniors had severe pains the next day, but cheer up, girls, let 's not believe it was the cooking that did it, oh, no, it was just the fact that they couldn't have a dinner party like this one every day. JUNIOR PROM Our first Annual Junior Prom was a decided success. It was the biggest social event of the season. The music Was peppery and jazzy, and added life to the event. The decorations were carried out in red and white, the Junior class colors. From the center of the ceiling an umbrella of red and White design was hung, covering the orchestra, which was enclosed in a similar umbrella surrounded by palms and ferns and draped with red and white streamers. The J uniors' booth was carried out in the scheme of a Dutch Wind- mill. decorated with Dutch blue and white. Punch was served. The Seniors' booth was very attractive, the scheme representing a summer tea garden. Decorations were carried out in green, and climbing morning glories. Japanese lanterns were hung from the roof. Mints in the class colors of bluc and gold were served. An Oriental booth offered great attractions and the Sophomore-s deserve credit for such an original idea. The Freshmen worked out a booth in green and white. Party sticks were served. The Alumni had an original booth. A large A, decorated in blue and white. Pop corn balls were served by two little coeds.
