SENIOR NOTES Is everyone glad that school is about out? We are for the simple reason that we are all anxious to re ceive those valued sheep skins. A number of our girls have gone “outing” but will return for graduation. What a break for them. Wil liam Demmert is also working but will return for grad uation. The class is now preparing for their final program to be given on Class Night, May 19. May you all enjoy it. The seniors are at loss for words for the wonderful time given them by the juniors at the Junior Prom. Everyone cooperated with the hosts and hostesses in making it a real social evening. Even Slim Galbreath and “Bass Viol” Berrys behaved themselves. ORGANIZATIONS Troop 2, girl scouts, Saturday, April 29: LaVerne Ulmer, Dorothy Parker and Hildred McCarty of the Cardinal patrol took three tenderfeet on an all-day hike. Sunday, Caroline Parker and Caroline Mahone took three other scouts. This is part of their first class test. In spite of April showers the girls took great pleasure in outdoor cooking. At the meeting the girls discussed the different kinds of badges and listed the badges to be ordered. LaVerne Ulmer, Caroline Par ker, Irene Thomas and Hildred McCarty have taken their test in signalling the Morse Code. Let’s give three cheers for “Lovie,” “Dixie” and “Sammy.” On Monday. May 8, Troop 3 enjoyed a picnic in the woods. After a program by the members of the troop, the group greatly enjoyed the out-door supper. The dramatic and music clubs went on their an nual picnic Tuesday evening after school and if we remember rightly it rained on that particular day so you can imagine that we had a pretty damp picnic. In spite of the weather everyone had a grand time, thanks to the cooks. Miss White and Mrs. Turney are the sponsors. Mr. and Mrs. Gilliam and Ann, Supt. and Mrs. Ryan, Miss Fout, and Georgie Bent were guests. Many of the girls are still hoping that they will be able to give their readings before school is out. Not many more Sundays are left so they had better step fast if they want to get in. The Pootan campfire girls held a business meeting in the Wigwam on May 1. The main topic of the even ing was the Birthday Project. Only seven members answered to the roll call. We regret losing three of our faithful members, Alice Ladderoute and Dora La- France who are employed in Portland and Ann White, our president, who is now in Toppenish, Washington. Emma Celestine was elected president for the remainder of the school year. P age 3 On Monday evening the Girl Reserves had a meet ing and worked jig-saw puzzles.
