PERSONALITY
Our personality for this week

During her four years in high
school she has been very active
in the various organizations in
which she has taken part. She
has proved a valuable member
ef~any~class and has been elects
ed to several important class of-
fices because of .her willingness

As a freshman she served as
class reporter. She also repre-
sen ted the sophomore • class as
class favorite. Last year she was
junior class secretary. She was
a member of the band and was

sports, having participated in
basketball fo'r the past four
years, playing in an alternate

FRESHMAN BOYS WIN
FIRST GAME AT IDALOU
• We are happy to say our, boys
won a close victory over Cooper
,on .Monday at the Idalofi "toli£F
nament. It was a two point vic-
tory in which Jam,e's Berry was
high point man. He got rather
warm and made two points for
Cooper. The girls are to play
vNew Deal. We hope they win, of
course.
We have cancelled our shows
due to the lack of co-operation
and profif. We are very sorry we
had to do so.
You're hearing a few com-
plaints on the new schedule be-
cause freshmen love to eat, but
seriously, we think .'it is swell.
The "clubs that are being organ-
ized are going to get quite an
attendance because we are cer-
tainly interested, believe you
me!
I lately decided that there
were some exciting {Personalities
jn the Freshman class, so I'de-
cided to bring them up. This
week I haye a boy and a girl.
I think Harold Brock has an
exciting personality, so I'm goS
ing to sum him nip for you.
I asked him if he had a pet
peeve, and he said, "I don't
guess so. By the way, what is
that?" (Gosh, no pet peeve?) >
He has several favorite dishes
such as fried chicken (Bonnie
and Mildred). He can play ha§>
ketball exceptionally well, so
he decided that would be his ta-
lent. His favorite sport is base-
ball. (Guess what! Mine, too!)
His pet likes are F.F.A. artd girls,
(natch). Hfs favorite subject is
agriculture (could it be because
of Mr. Hoover? You know, I
heard he was some corker).
—His ambition-is to be a ranch*
er, and guess what? I asked him
he simply said, "I can't do with-
out them". (Ha!) Now then, the
most exciting part, his descrip:
tion. He's 5 feet inches, has
black hair and green eyes. Well,
I guess that sums up Mr."Brock.
' And by the way, I rigged up
Mildred Peel for the girl person-
ality. She* like Haroldf, hasn'l
any pet peeve. (Gee whiz, what
people!) Her favorite dish is
fried chicken. Talent is (my
goodness) flashing her big blue
.eyes. Her pet likes are hoys, bas-
ketball and, of course, eating.
Her pet dislikes are getting up
in the morning (lazy, by
gosli) and going to bed at night
(late date, maybe?). If she had
a day to herself she would go
skating. She gets up between
7:30 or 8:00. Favorite subject is
chorus. Her ambition is to fin-
ish high school. Her description
is height, '5 feet 5 inches,, blue
eyes, blonde hair, and fair com-
plexion-. Mildred is a very like-
able freshman.
A SYMBOL OF PEACE
AND UNITY
During Jthis day and time there
Is much threat of war and the
shattering of our democracy.
Many consider this the darkest
outlook our country has ever
had. The reason".for 'this cquld
be our short memory. -
We as Americans have an in-
spiring symbol of peace and un-
ity. It is a monument overlook-
ing the Gettysburg battlefield.
It 'represents the reunion of the
Blue and the Grey as a symbol
of peace and friendship through-
out the United States. We as fu-
ture citizens should try to make
this monument, rising with all
its dignity and grandeur, stand
for aft ideal that could become
world-wide in reality.
