Publication Should Com-
mand Favorable Comment
"The Breekenridge High School
'Euckaroos' have arrived at last!"
That is the cry that can be heard
over the high school campus today
and excitement reigns because ev-
ury student want to get his 01 her
book first.
The committee in charge of the
book.- will present each one to the
perjona who ordered thtm before
the leccnt publication Mrs. R. S.
Clift. sponsor. announced today
The annuals will be given out to-
day and each student who Is foi-
tunate enough to possess one U
distined to be pioud of it.
The 1930 "Buckaioo" cannot be
praised enough since th0 original-
ity of the theme and the otorv told
fin each page is curried out to per
fection. It deserves the snm0 high
merit that Uie books of previous
years have obtained especially the
book. of 1927-28 and 192S-29. when
national recognition was a proof of
their merit. The books of the two
previous years received fiist place
dn the national year book contests
and in the opinion of most of
those who have setn this year's
book it too doaerves such an hon-
or. Tho thome of the book "The
Fountain of Youth" Is u unique
idea and original In the manner of
i.j portrayal. Each page is carried
out in the pastel colors of pink
blue and gray In mingled tones and
oach represents the work of stu-
j
and faculty hence the real
reason for such book appreciation.
Almost every fac0 on the Breek-
enridge High School campus Is rep-
resented in the "Buckaroo" sconeis
of the social events of the season
aie shewn and pictures of the ma-
jor popularities are shown in full
page photographs. Seotions are also
given over to football basketball
and track which aid in making the
I book more interesting and filled
j with typical high school spirit.
