Senior Dance
The Valentine Dance on Satur
day February 13 sponsored by
the Senior Class, was much en
joyed by the large crowd who
attended. Under the soft red lights
veiled by the red and white
streamer and hearts which hung
above their heads, the crowd
ushered in the birthday of old St.
Valentine with dancing and mer
ry-making. The seniors were well
satisfied with the results of the
dance and pronounce it a finan
cial as well as a social success.
The Fair is being looked for
ward to with great enthusiasm by
the high school, since a number
of exhibits in which students will
compete are planned.
This week basketball practice
has begun in earnest. Judging
from the large turn-out at pract
ices, the sport has lost none of
its former popularity, and same
promising material is showing up.
Well, at long, long last the
Scrubs have won a game! Friday
afternoon they took the High
School Girls to the cleaners with
a score of 14 to 13. The formerly
unbeaten Huskiettes were rather
off their game, or perhaps didn't
have their minds on their work.
Anyhow, something slipped up
someplace and the Scrubs carried
off the laurels of victory. Yea,
Scrubs! You may de%'e!op ‘what
it takes” yet!
