School Dance Band, accompanied

tion chosen during the meet.*

laughs and old memories to life.
Such things as, “1 was a Tadies
man in the second grade,” and,
“Jimmy and I set the cemetery on
fire,” caught many laughs.
Algebra classes exhibited post-
ers and graphs of the loved and
hated subject.
The World History class had
such things as a soap castle which
while in the process of being
Dan Bearden, and Miller D. Mor- made turned to soap. There were
paring their class projects.
General motors, poster illustra-
tions, and engines by the science

satisfied.

Texas History Play
The seventh grade Texas His-
tory classes gave a very colorful
was a play reproducing the his-
toric events and men in the state’s
history. Charles McGuyer gave an
amusing climax to the play by
saying to Sam Houston, who was
holding Santa Anna prisoner,
“Remember the Alamo!! Remem-
ber Goliad!! Let’s shoot him!!
Our thanks to the seventh
grade classes and all the teachers
who helped. Mrs. Teetes and Mrs.
Campbell sponsored the assembly.
Seventh Grad* Project*
The seventh grade had many
outstanding displays for open
house.
Mrs. Campbell's room, a sev-
enth-grade social studies class,
presented the history of Texas
in pictures. Salt maps of Texas
which were made earlier in the
year were shown. The seventh
grade reading classes exhibited
interesting drawings mad* in the
study of Science, such as cells,
and other parts of the human
body..
In seventh grade English, sev-
eral pupils who used missiles and
space as the subject for their re
search project had -their themes
on exhibit with four model; of
missiles they had made. Billy
many posters and maps for the
World History and Spanish class-
es as well.
The Roving Reporters
The Rover Boys would like to
congratulate the Student Council
for it's success in the annual Fun
Night held last Tuesday night. It
was estimated that about 800 stu-
dents attended the affair.
If one had been a visitor at Jr.
High several weeks ago during a
Texas History play, he would
have thought himself in the nine-
teenth century. The seventh-
graders were so vividly dressed
that they closely resembled fron-
tiermen of yesteryear.
Mrs. Florene Adam’s home
room is businly preparing for the
presentation of “Tom Sawyer, the
Glorious Whitewasher,” which
should be performed during an
assembly next Wednesday. Ar-
rangements have already been
made to give it before the high
school at a later date.
To the surprise of some peo-
ple the Student-Faculty Basket-
ball game, the students seemed
to favor their beloved teachers
above the ninth graders. Some of
us are also proud of the way Miss
Mills and other female teachers
led some cheers. Good-going!
