HIGH SCHOOL
The High School assembly is in
beautiful holiday attire. Christmas
is in the air and streaming from
one light fixture to another are
linked red and green colored pa
per. Suspended from the center is
the traditional star adding to the
celestial environment. In the
southwest corner of the room, is a
six-foot spruce tree illuminated by
colored lights. Colored balls and
(sparkling tinsel enhance the
beauty of the tree. On the end of
the assembly desk, a two-foot tree
is similarly decorated.
During spare moments, English
III students have been rehearsing
their Christmas plays which were
given in the assembly this after
noon.
The U. S. history class is having
some very interesting discussion
on the Jacksonian Democracy.
A benefit basketball game was
played on December 19th against
the A.A.C.S. The game proved ex
| citing and the score was close dur
I ing the entire game. 'The tension
| and feeling was very high on both
\ sides. The High School was de
feated by one point with a score
I of 51 to 52.
The High School Christmas
party held Thursday evening was
a happy occasion. Roller skating
in the gymnasium amidst the dec
orations and charm of the com
munity Christmas tree will long
be remembered.
The sun reached its southern
limit Wednesday, being 23Vfe de
grees south of the equator. This is
called the winter solstice and gives
the shortest day of the year. The
sun was directly above the tropic
of Capricorn.

I Navy May Further
Strengthen The
Pacific Fleet
(By Max Boyd)
WASHINGTON, (/P)—The navy
disclosed yesterday that it is con
sidering a further strengthening
of the Pacific fleet.
This would be in addition to the
! recently ordered shift of two
! cruisers, the Juneau and the Ro
| Chester, from the Atlantic to the
West Coast. It follows published
reports that another carrier and
a number of submarines are due
to make similar shifts.
Replying to a reporter’s ques
tion as to whether the navy plans
any further strengthening of its
Pacific forces in addition to the
announced cruiser transfers, a
spokesman said:
‘‘This problem is under consid
eration—subject, of course, to in
ternal and external conditions.”
The spokesman did not specify
the conditions that will affect the
! navy’s decision. '
Obviously, one important inter
nal factor will be the amount of
money the service has for ship op
I erations.
And externally, an important
[ element is bound to be the con
flict that thus far has put com
munists in command of virtually
all of China’s ports, except British
controlled Hong Kong, and driven
the Chinese Nationalists to the is
land of Formosa.
During and since World War II.
the Chinese Nationalists acquired
a considerable number of light na
val vessels.
