THE GOLDEN-ROD 23 School News September 8 The opening day of school we spent ic greater part of the time with Head- Vaster Collins in thedssemblyjfall. After tlA opening exercises by Mr. Collins, he reviewed and emphasized the rules and regulations of the school. Then all except the sophomores were dismissed. They remaineckin order to receive instruction in regard to the plan of the building and school workN •Al September 16 Our first football rallySwas held Sept. 16. First, we had the pleasure of hearing Captain “Dud” Foy assure us of his faith in the team and of a successful sea- son. Then, tag manager Nelson Cochrane read the schedule, which promises to be an interesting one with many hard bat- tles. Coach “Mitch” next delivered ans oration assuring us clean games, if not always successful. Roger Schultz spoke about the cross country team. The next speech was a plea for money by Mr Ganiev. He stated that little round discs were on sale for a quarter, and that every- one must support the team in spirit and finance. John Fuller then tried to “raise the roof” with cheers and the school song, to which the students responded vigor- ously, and the assembly was then brought to an enthusiastic finish. September 27 The college, normal, and tcch-gpupils of the junior and senior classes were called to the assembly hall. Mr. Collins then spent the time discussing colleges, universities, and normal schools, in re- gard to their requirements, catalogues, fees, and the preparations necessary to enter them. He also told them about the college board examination and the fees required. October 7 Quincy High School has been fortunate this year in having its first dean for girls, Miss Baker of Arlington. Through her efforts the girls of the junior and senior classes have become acquainted with the sophomores, and girls new to Quincy High School, and have tried to make them feel at home. To further this ob- ject, the Big Sisters, as they are called, gave a “mixer party” Sept. 7. and invited their sophomores ana new girls. There were speeches by the president, Helen White. Miss Baker, Mr. Collins and Miss Brutonne. An entertainment followed which consisted of dances by Ruth Lints and Ethel Phinney, a piano solo by Mir- iam Cahoon, and a solo by Ruth Mc- Curdy. Games, candy' and cheers fol- lowed, and the party efided. (There were about five hundred girls present and a number of the faculty.) Those in charge .were Miss Baker; Helen White; Dorothy Djjim an, program committee, and Doro- thy Waite, game committee. October 8 The February ’27 class held a class meeting in the assembly hall. George LeCain, the president, opened the meet- ing and then turned the meeting over to Mr. Collins who gave them a talk on their future life, after they twill have grad- uated from Quincy High JGeorge LeCain then stated that a number of committees, consisting of Class Day, Class Song, Re ception, and Picture, must be chosen. The motion was made and seconded that the i'esident appoint these committees, and the meeting was adjourned.
