First Grade. We had a story about dolls in our reader, so Wednesday, Oct. 18th was “Doll Day” and we have had many dolls with us since then and many stories about dolls. Thursday, we made cornstalk fiddles and learned a song about a Fiddle. Friday we made our ‘‘Pumpkin Men.” Mrs. Hockman, guest of Mrs. N. A. Miles, visited our room, this being the first time she had been in a primary room since she was a beginner in school. She found it quite Interesting. She was accompanied by her 3-year-old daughter, Ruth, whom we found very interesting. Duane Devault has withdrawn from our grade and is moving to Wabash, Indiana. We will have our Hallowe’en Party, Tuesday afternoon, Oct. 31, and the children may mask. Second Grade. We collected seeds for our seed books during a field trip last ■week. These books have been finished and taken home. Ted Stucky brought some more gold fish for our aquarium. Thanks, Ted. We are reading Hallowe’en stories in supplementary readers and shall have a Hallowe’en party, Tuesday, October 31st. Mrs. Ray Wilkinson was a guest in our room Oct. 19th. Lyman Lawson and Jack Clark are absent. Third Grade. John Blakesley, Lloyd Bitzer, Nancy Ketering and Morris McKibben have been absent this week. We chose the best witches and the best farm booklets that we had made and hung them on the burlap in the back of the room. We have some fierce looking jack-o-lanterns that sit on the window sills and watch us all day. Each day, someone brings something that reminds us that Hallowe’en is getting nearer.

Barbara Rex was absent Monday forenoon because of illness. Donna Darr was absent Tuesday. f ‘ Fifth Grade. Clifford LeCount has returned to school after being absent five days. Donald Johnson missed one day and Katharine Holderman was out half a day. Joyce Gawthrop brought a pot of moss roses for our room, and we have also added an African violet to our collection of plants. Having finished “Tom Sawyer,” we are now reading a Nancy Drew’ mystery. Mr. Slabaugh brought us a new fifth reader which we plan to use along with our Treasury of Life and Literature books. Sixth Grade. There were four days missed this last week. Jane Myers and Junior Ruby each missed two days. The work of the sixth grade is complete for the first seven weeks of school. Class response to our efforts are still not what it should be. Seventh Grade. The absent members this week were Robert Eppert, Kenneth Metcalf, Billie Applegate and Stanley Hoopingarner. Monday Morning we voted for a yell leader for the basketball games. The girls have been having quite a few spelling matches in our home economics class and most of the girls want to have some more. Thfcy are all fairly good spellers. We had our monthly tests Tuesday and Wednesday and we all hope we pulled through. Eighth Grade. Wednesday we will have the month’s meeting of our “Up to

the Minute Club.” There will be an election of officers and our small dues to pay. Our attendance has been so good that we are not sure that there will be any change of officers in our Good Deed committee. However, Richard Johnson, our president, will appoint new members for our Spic and Span committee and our CleanUp committee. The children assigned to the cast in our Thanksgiving play are learning their parts, but they will not start practicing for a while, yet. We had all our monthly tests Tuesday. I think most of us were glad to have it over with. Because of cool weather, the girls in gym class were forced to stay inside to play, last week. The boy’s gym class, however, played baseball outside. Monday, the second period, Miss Wingard named the ones who had to stay in that noon and evening for talking that period. There were only 21; isn’t that enough? At noon, Mr. Slabaugh changed it and made it harder for all of us. He said if any talked during the second period he would be sent down to the office. Well, I guess it is working, because so far there hasn’t been very much talking. Freshman News. They may call us green but we could think of a lot worse names for them than “green.” The freshman girls seem to have a fair baseball team since they are able to beat the sophomores. The team played the junior girls a few days ago, and although they are pretty strong, it was rumored the juniors are stronger. Freshman boys seem to be able to make the basketball squad this year, anyway. Seven of them did it. They are Cullers, Traster, Gordon, Gordon Baumgartner, Slabaugh and Kroh. Our English newspaper is quite

a sensation. Somebody ought to read it once in a while. All the class contributes and it is quite lengthy. Sophomore News. It looks as if the class of ’42 has a permanent monopoly on yell leaders. Last year, Joanne McCarty and thfti year, Lowell Shary leads Syracuse High yells. Let’s give a cheer for the cheer leader. All together, now — Rah, rah, Sharp! • • « Miss Hammon: “Marlse, what kinds of letters do you write most frequently?” Marlse mumbles something. Miss Hammon: What! Love letters?” Junior News. Dear Friends, Romans, Countrymen: Well, it’s finally happened! The class met Monday and decided on and were measured far their class rings. We won’t get them until the first of December, but anyhow, we’re all pretty pleased with our selections. Can anyone possibly tell Mr. Neff how the man on the chart on the right board in room 5 so quickly grew a mustache and side burns? Hey! Shh —maybe he hadn’t noticed! What junior fellow has been making eyes and writing notes (short and sweet) to a certain junior girl with the same first and last initials as his own? (Hint: He doesn’t like blondes or brunettes.) Martha Hibschman declared in history class one day that Washington’s administration was from 1689 to 1897! Dear, dear! It sounds as though he started to outlive Methuselah! Personal notice: Anyone finding the Indian silk lining from Monk Bell’s 5c to $1 hat, please return at once! Til next week, “Scatterbrain” (Continued on page 8.)
