Senior Class Play In Europe, it’s the Marshall Plan, in Russia it’s a five-year - plan, but in the Senior Class Play it’s the Peabody Plan, and no one . knows just how long it will last!

Buy a ticket to the play and see ■ for yourself that “It’s A Great j Life.” Note to S. H. S. students: j You’re not having hallucinations! when you hear the sound of horses somewhere in the school building. Come Friday night, April 6, and witness the strange events.

MOVIE NEWS Last Friday a movie sponsored by the Texas Oil Company was shown to the students of the high school. It concerned the pipe line that that company laid to the “Big River Districts” — which makes up the states near the Mississippi River. They employed 2,000 men for i six months to lay the line. Instead of laying the line from I the oil fields directly to the objec- : tive they took the long way ! around so as to avoid difficult engineering problems. They used trench diggers and large cranes for the work. Before the pipe could be put under ground the joints had to be welded, and tar placed on every inch of the pipe. They used a special machine for placing the tar on the pipe. This machine turned the pipe as the tar was applied and wrapped it in heavy paper for protection. They went under roads and rivers and through forests to lay the line. Now the Big River District can obtain oil easily and at a very economicial price. — Charles Reagan. F. F. A. Jackets Not Yellow Jackets, but F. F.' A. Jackets! After waiting several weeks, Art Mabie, Emory Stiffler, Harold Denton, Carl Wilkinson,: John Hoover, Harold Stabler, and Frank Searfoss appeared Tuesday morning with the bright blue and gold A. jackets. The jackets are made of blue corduroy and have gold F. F. A., emblem on front and back. Above the emblem on the back is Indiana and the Chapter name, Syracuse, is below. Also, the boys have their names and offices printed on the front. JOURNALISM The News Staff held a meeting Thursday, March 29. Suggestions of Subject matter for the Roving Reporter were discussed. It was also decided that Monday mornings should be made a deadline for all reporters’ news. SENIOR NEWS Class Play — Progressing somewhat slowly, with success. Trip — Next Wednesday, April 11, to Flint, Michigan. Mr. Kleinknight has invited the senior class to go through the Chevrolet plant in Flint.

Listeners to the story followed the boy ft) the home he was taken to by the man who hoped his wife would accept him —heard the interview given by him to a reporter, wherein the boy gave a dream story—people began to think he was royalty, but he was just a normal boy wanting to play, but had a stoic acceptance of what was “dished” out to him —attorneys tried to find out about him —he tried to help the family which kept him —got a job—wrote a book, but it came back, and finally all of a sudden, remembered his name, no royal blood in his family, but the boy carried on. He managed the household affairs, fell in love, got a newspaper job, did well for a while, until suspicion of murder fell on him, but was finally cleared, and married the girl he had loved for a long time.
