Junior High Hi Lites What’s Happening By Jean Mellinger North Webster’s junior high basketball teams both had a victory in their games against West Noble. The seventh grade won with the score of 31 to West Noble’s 20 points and the eighth grade also won with the score of 42 to 35. We hope that they will have many more victories such as this one. This week Mrs. Brown’s eighth grade English class has been working on the project of a play called “The Laziest Man in the World”. It is about Benjamin Franklin and his inventions. The audience of the performers 'will be the class members who are not in the play.

Prizes will be given to the 10 best. The judges for the contest will be Mr. Turner, Miss Hamm and Mrs. Coverstone. —JH— By Linda Lundquist Last Monday our Syracuse Yellow Jackets met Wolf Lake in a hard-fought home game.

Successful Open House At Syracuse William E. Dorsey, principal of Syracuse junior high school, and Robert D. Hamman, principal of Syracuse elementary school, have announced that the open house and demonstration lunch held jointly at their schools on Tuesday, Nov. 12, were very successful. Each year the Syracuse Parent - Teacher Association sponsors the open house and demonstration lunch during American Education week. The demonstration lunch gives parents and other school patrons an opportunity- to eat the same type meal fed to students in the school cafeteria. The open house gives them a chance to inspect the school facilities and find out what the school is trying to accomplish and how it is going about the task. It also affords parents and teachers an opportunity to get acquainted with each other, so they can work cooperatively together in educating their children. 600 Meals Served The demonstration lunch began at 5:30 p.m. and lasted until 6:45 p.m. During this time, over 600 meals were served compared to about 400 last year. Mrs. Maurice Dorsey is cafeteria manager. The open house began at 6:15 n.m. and lasted until 8:15 p.m. The program was informal with parents and other school patrons touring the building and visiting with teachers and other school personnel. There was a gymnastics program presented in the old gym at 7:30 p.m. under the direction of Tom Jones and Mrs. Sue Ganshorn. It was evident that a lot of hard work went into planning and preparing for this program. It was well accepted by the audience, which filled the gymnasium to capacity with some people standing. Mary Ellen Coleman Receives Letter Os Commendation A letter of commendation honoring her for her high performance on the 1968 National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (N---MSQT) has been awarded to a student at Wawasee high school, principal Henry Smith has announced.

The commended students rank just below the 15,000 semifinalists announced in September by the National Merit Scholarship corporation. John M. Stalnaker, president of NMSC, said: “Although commended students advance no further in the merit scholarship competition, their cutstanding record in a nationwide program deserves public recognition. Their significant academic attainment gives promise of continued success in college. , “The commended students should be encouraged to pursue their education since their intellectual talent represents an important and much needed natural resource. Our nation will benefit from their continuing educational development.” The commended students’ names are reported to other scholarship - granting agencies and to the colleges they named as their first and second choices when they took the NMSQT in February 1963.
