Sure, it's a lot of fun and it provides a little excitement, but when lives and property are endangered by the act of throwing gasoline on a pile of wood and then setting a match to the wood, the game ceases to be fun and becomes dangerous. Mr. Gaylord Smith, principal, spoke to the Student Council on Monday, October 29, concerning this matter. He stated that certain students have endangered lives by their actions and that if one more pile of wood was burnt, the bonfire would be called off. 'back file. Since the bonfire is put on for the benefit of the whole school, j One of the most interesting it was suggested that the bonfire be made an all-school project, f items to appear in one of these with sophomores, juniors, and seniors working together to make 'naners is as follows- the event a success instead oi naving tne sopns collect the wood and then having it burned before they could use it.

Flair for Fashion By Linda Weber They say a girl's crowning glory is her hair but let's drop the eye to the latest fashions in footwear. The almost forgotten boot of our grade school years has march ed to the head of the footwear fashion parade this fall. Boots this year, girls, are in all lengths and for any or all occasions. The most fashionable fabrics are used in the making of these boots from soft rich velveteen trimmed in fur for evening wear to bold wide corduroy for sports wear. While eyes here in the United States are fastened upon the boot. Paris has introduced a unique foot fashion in the two shoes for one called the "Pirouette." These shoes are made in two parts so with a simple switch of fronts a different shoe adorns the foot. Pretty sly wouldn't you say? At last, maybe we can save some money two pair of shoes for the price of one could it ever be?

Potatoes Have Practical Uses This is a true story about a naval destroyer called the USS O'Bannon and a Japanese sub marine. It seems that the O'Ban non has many high citations to be proud of, but its crew is proudest of a plaque presented to them by the Maine Potato Growers Association. The association awarded the ship the bronze, scroll-shaped plaque for sinking a Japanese submarine without firing a shot It happened in the south Pac ific when the O'Bannon caught the submarine napping on the sur face. The sub moved in too close for the destroyers gun's to bear so the Japanese crewmen poured on deck with small arms. All the O'bannon's pistols and rifles were below in the armory. The only close means of defense was the potato locker. O'Bannon crewmen bombarded the enemy with potatoes. In the confusion the Japanese sub thought they were hand grenades and submerged without closing their hatches and so the sub sank.
