He made alone 14 points. What our school needs in order to make a real showing at a competitive meet like this, ist to have a lot of boys out. There is good material in school, if the boys would only care to forego a few pleasures in order to be on such a beam. It is very nice for the school to receive the henor, but it is really the boy who engages in such a contest who receives the most benefit. CLASS DAY PROGRAM Last year, the class of 11)30, put aside a day known as cla?s day. On this day they handed down their tradition' and ideals to the junior class. The president of the senior clas-, Shirley Heider, presented the Pei, the class trophy, to the junior class president, Eldor Miller. The Per.- wa? handed down with the sincerest hope that the juniors would cherish and carry on the brilliant work of the class of 1930. The Pen is symbolic of Hamlin Garland, the famous writer who was born near West Salem. The features on this class day program were: The reading of the cla K Will by Annette McDonald. Articles such as Grace Hannum’s report card, Mildred Shane's weight chart and numerous broken hearts were bequeathed-. The class prophecy was read by Grace Hannum. The Class of 1931 has selected May 27th, as their class day. The senior president, Willard Drecktrah, will present the Pen to Frederick Wege, who will accept it for the junior cla?i . We hope that this ceremony will be continued by the classes who are following us. 1930 Valedictorian and Salutatorian The Class of 1930 had two girls for their representative speaker- on Commencement evening. Muriel Fuller had the honor cf being valedictorian, and Charlotte Meyer was salutatorian. The exercises were held in the Pavilion at 8:00. Don Le cohier gave the address. The girls glee club and the orchestra presented several selections. Mr. Robert G. Petersen- presented the diplomas. RHYTHM BAND A rather novel musical feature has been introduced into the grades- this year by Miss Ivey. This is in the form of a rhythm band. Phyllis Nelson is the director. The band has played at many social occasions and has been much enjoyed. FRENCH CLUB Miss Alice Lound has organized a French Club. This class meets after school and is very interesting and educational. In addition to studlng grammar, many humorous ar.d proverbial stories are read. GIRL SCOUTS The Girl Scouts of West Salem were organized in 1924 under the temporary leader, Rev. Kroonemeyer. Mis Winr.na Smith then became leader and remained in that capacity for several years. For the next three year Miss Pearl Richardson was captain. The present captain is Mrs. Elert Erickson. During the school year meetings are held regularly every Monday-evening. Many of the meetings are in the form of hikes and wiener roasts. The main feature of the year's program is camping for a week or two in the summer. To earn money for this purpzse, the troop has held doughnut sales, candy sales, and has sold a hand-made quilt. Achievements, merit badges, and honorary badges have been bestowed on tho.e who have worked to leceive them. It is deemed a high honor to receive a badge and know that it has been faithfully earned.
