Within the last five years South has ever been in the lead. Her warriors have battled their way to three baseball, one football championship, and a tie for another. Last year we were tied for debating honors, while this year, we won the championship. We have a beautiful new auditorium, seating two thousand people; a new gymnasium and lunchroom. We also have a new manual training and commercial department. Besides this we now have an athletic field larger than Northrop field. There will be a gridiron. a baseball diamond, a running track, tennis courts, and a hockey rink, all enclosed by a concrete wall, and a stadium with a capacity of twenty-five hundred people. We have also purchased a beautiful new grand piano and a victrola with a cabinet full of records. We have good reason to be proud of our institution, to love, honor, and ever strive to promote its glory and good name. The same old song which a few years ago was sung to a pathetic wailing tune and since then has been almost forgotten, is again becoming popular at South High. Five years ago or more, the singing of that song brought to South Nigh, the addition of new buildings. For a very short period after this, we had enough room; but now we are more crowded than ever. Xow there are five or six teachers that have no fixed rooms. They must go from one room to another, wherever there h:ppens to be no other class. Other teachers have been given space in the main halls, in which to set up forty or fifty folding chairs in order that they may have a place in which to hear their classes. Senior drawing is being taught in the washroom oft from the machine shop, and the Freshmen get their drawing lessons in the lunchroom. It is evident that the song must continue, and in a more pleading tune than ever, therefore let every South High student join in the chorus. [Page Ton.]
