Sagamore Staff Since the dog is man's best friend, the staff has chosen Doss” as the theme for the 1945 Saga-more. Judging by the number of dogs that can be seen roaming the halls of Roosevelt High School, the staff decided that dogs are liked by both the faculty and the students. They have tried to include the dogs that are familiar to Roosevelt students — both the animate and the inanimate ones. They hope you will like the plaid cover designed by Paul Albitz. Perhaps you are wondering why the yearbook is called Sagamore. Several years ago a contest was held to find a new name for the book. The winning name was Sagamore, which comes from Sagamore Hill, Theodore Roosevelt s home. This year for the first time the staff has coeditors and two photographers, in order that the work may be spread out among more students. AWARDS RECEIVED We are proud of the record of five All-American awards in the last six years. All-American is the highest rating given to yearbooks by the National Scholastic Press Association. The Columbia Scholastic Press Association awarded the Sagamore a first place for the 1943 and 1944 yearbooks. Last year the book also received six yearbook awards from the Minnesota High School Press Association. C 26 ]

BOARD OF GOVERNORS One of the most active committees is the Board of Governors which supervises the operation of the study halls. The Ethics Committee meets daily to discipline those who fail to comply with the regulations established by the council. Each week the war stamp and bond orders must be filled by the Stamp Committee. The members of the committee have quite a bit of work in filling these orders. The Service Point Committee checks and files the service point records of all students. We have had the pleasure of enjoying several good auditorium programs that were sponsored by the Student Talent Committee. There are numerous other committees that are essential to our fine system of student government. It is a credit to our school to be known throughout our state for the outstanding way in which our council conducts the business of our school. PAPER SALES Twice this year the council has sponsored paper drives. The Roosevelt district is divided into sections and a group of five stu- Presidential Conference. C. Larson, J. Johnson. P.

At the end of the day these fortunate people, who have been excused from school, are near exhaustion after lifting heavy bundles of paper, falling down stairways, and even repairing flat tires. It is surprising what one will go through to get out of a day of school work that will probably be made up anyway. Money, Money, Money . . . Fahlin, Olson, Holland. Straightening Things Out.

Standard Staff The Standard Staff, which formerly met in Room 325, now has the exclusive use of Room 326. The staff may usually be found in their office during the fourth period. They are probably working on their assignments for the next issue of the paper; that is, if the warm wind blowing through the open windows and the shouts of students enjoying their lunch period have not set their minds wandering. The brisk sounding of the passing bell awakens the few that have been day dreaming to the realization that the deadline is near. On Monday the office is the scene of great activity. There is no sign of day dreaming. The staff typewriter sounds out a hesitant staccato as a one-fingered typist attempts to complete his article. The typist is surrounded by staff members, who all think they should use the battered typewriter next; however, they do agree that the person at the typewriter should have finished long ago. Everyone is conscious of the impending deadline. Immune to the turmoil that surrounds him, Mr. Nielsen caimly executes his duties as the adviser of the staff. On the following Thursday the students eagerly receive their copies of the Standard to read the latest information on the events of the week and to aggravate their teachers by reading during their class periods.
