Cyganficfsaz acuffy September! School bells! Mother calling up the stairs, Hurry now and get down to breakfast, or you'll be late to school? Good-bye, long morning naps, farewell swimming hole, fishing rod, and porch swing, so long, idle, care-free days. Vacation becomes a memory, and school a reality. Now the hours are filled with routine and the head crammed with learning. Registration day! See that seventh grader who is so thrilled to be attending school at the North Building. There comes a country Fresh- man approaching with fear and trembling, and a town Freshman with a certain importance that is not entirely untinged with green. Now follows a Sophomore with the swagger of the man who knows the ropesv-he may learn there are two or three he hasn't discovered yet. Next a couple of Juniors enter with the determination to argue their way into a course that will offer the path of least resistance to their brilliant minds. Then a group of Seniors stroll in, confident that they will soon be winning a prominent place in Ord High School's Hall of Fame. Registration over! Courses lined up! The old students linger to chat with Mr. Bell and Mr. Cassg the new students meet them for the first time and go away agreeing that superintendents and principals are quite human after all. But what of the teachers? The first day arrives and every one's curiosity is satisfied. Old teachers are welcomed back and the new ones are soon made to feel at home. Students form opinionsg teachers do, too. Teachers struggle to match new names and faces while the pupils explore new texts and start decorating note book covers. Poor faculty! Another nine months of turning raw material into finished products! XVilhu1' D. Cass, Principal Billiard lv. IZ:-ll, Superintvnileni A. B., Nebraska YVesleyan: X B.. Peru: M, A.

caan fiafisz Student Uowzci The first week of school, and such a week! Each one takes a chair next to his best friend, only to find that by the end of the week the teachers have spotted the chums and have arranged a very decided fruit basket upset seating plan. Courses are changed, and then changed again until some dignified but very confused Senior walks into a Freshman English class to take American History. Finally, however, everything straightens out and the schedule is just beginning to run smoothly when the auto races are upon us. Two precious afternoons of vacation! Did I say two? Well maybe three for some. Back to full time school schedule again and attention turns to the extra-curricular activities. Half the Freshman boys turn out to show the Seniors how football really is played and practically every girl in high school signs up for Glee Club. lt's surprising what ambition we all have. A contracts look easy, just the sort of thing we can take in our seven-league strides. fThat's what we think at the beginning of the six- week period.J The classes start organizing early in the term and among other officers select their representatives to the Student Advisory Council. Four Seniors, three Juniors. two Sophomores, and one Freshman com- pose this body which helps tlie faculty in making and managing school policies. It sits in judgement on such questions as class day rules, hall conduct, and making the annual an all-school undertaking. The Coun- cills duties grow heavier as the year progresses and the lockers start spilling out their accumulation of papers every time the doors are open- ed. Then comes occasional announcements reading, t'Locker clean-up and inspection today. What efticient inspectors those Council mem- bers make-and they are becoming quite professional at managing the fish pond at the school carnivals. Sponsor, Mr. Cass: Seniors. I.: . I Lk..
