P.A.L REPORT
The P.A.L. Club of Bastrop High
had their first club meeting, Mon-
day, September 25.
Reports wer given of the com-
mittee.
A motion was made and carried
that the P.A.L. Club along with
the H.E. II clas^ were to hold a
waffle supper and have a country
store on Hallowe'en night.

card sales starting Wednesday,

A NEW CLASS IN
BASTROP HIGH
For the first time since the
Homemaking Department was
opened in Bastrop High School
two years ago—a class is being
offered to boys a.- well as girls.
This class i- limited to seniors
and two boys and seven girls have
enrolled. On the first day Mrs.
Colvin, th teacher, explained that
the class was planned to give them
help on any or all problems they
will face in finishing high school
and going out as an adult.
Several days was spent in list-
ing the problems with which the
group wanted some study and
guidance. A number of names for
the course were considered and
Preparation for Adult Living was
the name chosen. It will be abbre-
viated as the P.A.L. class.
Personality development is the
first problem the group is attack-
ing. We have a number of good
text books for reading—also mag-
azine articles, bulletins, pamphlets,
etc. from our reference file—and
are having some interesting
lessons.
Other topics that we are to
study as we get to them will be
courtesy, manners, and etiquette.
Personal Grooming. Youth Prob-
lems. Learning How To Buy Wise-
ly, How to Care for My Clothe?.
Social Inju.-tiees and How To
Overcome them, an.i Choosing A
Vocation.
Student Council
Report
The Student Council of Bastrop
High School met Tuesday, Septem-
ber 19. 19.">0 at 8:45 A. M., in Mr.
Campbell's room.
The meeting was called to order
by the president, Tommy Chalmers.
It was decided that the Student
Council would meet every Mon-
day morning at 8:45.
Mr. Campbell said some "f tbe|
people in town wanted to have
a dance in the gym every Satur-
day night for the school childr* n.
These people guaranteed enough
money to pay the band if the pro-
ceeds were not enough. Since it is
too large a resonsibility for a
school group to sponsor, it was
suggested that the Student Council
ask the P.T.A. to sponsor it. It
was decided that Tcmomy would
ask them at their meeting Wed-
nesday.
Since everyone wants sugges-
tions brought from the Class
Meetings to the Student Council,
it was decided that the Student
Council meetings would be chang-
ed to Tuesday.
It was decided that the Class
Meetings be held on every 2nd
and 4t.h Monday of each month.
A motion was mad'* that we
have a suggestion box. It carried.
We hope that everyone will co-
operate with all Student Council
j activities so that this will l>e one
of the most successful years.
