School News
The February edition of the
“North Star” was issued today.
The scripts for the school play,
“He Couldn’t Marry Five,” are
here and the cast is already hard
at work memorizing their lines.
The boys’ baseball team is prac
ticing for the coming games. They
look like they are in pretty good
shape, too. The High School will
be rooting for them.
FIRST AND SECOND GRADES
We have enjoyed making winter
pictures with charcoal and white
chalk on blue background.
Several children have been ab
sent because of colds. We must try
to obey our health rules and then
we are less apt to have colds.
THIRD AND FOURTH GRADES
Margaret’s and Roy’s mothers
visited the third and fourth
grades.
The third grade has made houses
and dressed raffia dolls to repre
sent homes and peoples of other
lands. The fourth grade history
class dressed dolls to represent j
colonial times.
Once a week stories of books
from the library are held in the,
reading class period.
FIFTH GRADE
We are very sorry to have our
art teacher, Mrs. Judish, leave us.
We have appreciated her work
very much.
We received a long letter from
Theresa Maxwell, who is recuper
ating from a severe case of tuber
culosis in the Santa Teresita San
itarium in California. She will be
very glad to hear from any of her
friends.
Our Weekly Readers had an ar
ticle on the question “Will Alaska
3 Battlecruisers
Headed For
Oblivion
WASHINGTON, Feb. 8— —
The Navy is sending its three new
battlecruisers to limbo. The laid
up ships chances of emerging into
active duty are slim navy men
said. The 27,500 tons ships: the
Alaska, the Guam, and the Ha
waii, built to match the punching
power comparable to enemy ves
sels, such as Germany’s Scharn
horst. But changing mode of war
fare and manpower limitations
headed them to obscure anchor
ages long before the time when
fighting ships usually become ob
solete. The Alaska was commis
sioned June 1944.
For Good Prinitng Cal! Main 125
Become A State?”, which we
found very interesting. Some Con
gressmen were sent here last sum
mer. They reported: not yet. Many
Alaskans feel we are not ready.
However, more people now live in
Alaska than lived in many other
territories when they became
states. It is a question in which
we are all interested.
SIXTH GRADE
The Sixth Grade pupils were
each to give an oral report on
some approved book we had read
and enjoyed during the first se
mester of school. This was a re
quirement before receiving our
semester grade in English. Judg
ing from the number of good book*
reports we have had, it is safe to
say that the majority of us en
joyed this extra activity. Some of
us were even ready and eager to
give a second book report before
the end of the semester.
