Report Jan. 29. cards were issued Crater High School By Judi Davis "Happy Harvey to Beat the Ivories" was the sign posted in the main hall last week. The truth was never more "truthful" because that is ex actly what "Happy Harvey" did. He was given one of the biggest hands ever received by a person presenting an afiembly at Crater High. His program consisted of a number of modern songs and some little ditties that are famous in this country. All of his music was accompanied by clever little remarks. He also had all of the students and teachers participating in his numbers by singing. It was one of the better assem blies ever offered on the Na tional School Asembly pro grams. Now that the new semes ter is here, several teachers have student teachers prac ticing under them. First is the student body president from SOC, Walter Hurst. He attended high school in Los Angeles and has gone to SOC all four years of college. He has been in numerous activities in col lege and for the past two years, has been listed in "Who's Who in American Colleges." Hurst is practice teaching under Mrs. Drys dale in sophomore English. He has majored in English and plans to teach in that field. Art Schmidt is majoring in the field of math and science at SOC. He attended high school in Prineville. Schmidt, like Hurst, is also mentioned in "Who's Who". He is prac ticing under Mr. Bailey in the math courses. Student government day electioneering is in full swing at Crater. At the beginning of the . week several students were nominated for 'the five offices to be elected by Cra ter. On Friday the primaries were held. The final election will be next week with a time to do campaigning. Friday was a busy day at Crater. Besides if being an election day, it was also the day for annual pictures. Sev eral clubs and organizations were seen posing for the Eu gene cameraman from the Kennel-Ellis studios. Semester grades were final ly known Friday when the report cards came out. There were some unhappy faces seen, which indicated that next semester, they will have to work just a little harder. The week end that every one around Crater had been waiting for had arrived. It was the week end of the Cra-ter-Medford series. A lot of spirit was evident all during the day, and a pep assembly climaxed the preparation for the game. There were several new yells tried out and every one was ready. At the game, excitement ran high waiting for the game to start. As the game prog ressed, not very many people could remain in their seats. Crater was ahead most of the first half, and Medford fought for the lead in the second half. Up until the final buzz er, the lead could have gone either way. Medford finally won the game by a score of 54 to 53. During the game the yell made astonishing statements like "Piles have ceased to be a problem ! The secret is a new healing sub stance (Bio-Dyne) discovery of a world-famous research institute.

Hedrick Jr. High School By Jim Frake A wrestling assembly was featured Jan. 31. The varsity yell leaders portrayed the Hedrick Wrestling Team in an "exhibit" bout between "Tiger Thompson" (Cassie Thompson) and "Rock an' Roll Rowan" (Rebeca Rowan). Their managers were "Bobo Barker" (Ann Barker) and "Nutti Nicki" (Nicki Mears). The official referee was "Cranberry Cranston" (Pat Cranston). But not forgetting the yell leaders, members of the wrestling team took over. The "new" yell leaders were Mike Flett, Warren Parke, John Hamlin, Ken Morse, and Terry O'Sullivan. At the close of the assembly while both wrestlers were "out cold" their managers seemed to just happen to have a bucket of cold water handy. However, both groups decided to change jobs back again be fore the match with Klamath Falls, Friday afternoon. Jim Miller, wrestling coach, introduced the Hedrick wres tling team. Jim Frake was master of ceremonies. Danny Sieg also presented a gift to Beverly Klimko, student body secretary, because she is leaving Hedrick to attend school in Central Point.

The speech contest was limited to specific high schools throughout the state. The Hedrick debaters will enter a similar but larger contest at Linfield college on Feb. 20-22.

Galen Miller Harvey was the performer at the National School assembly presented in the Hedrick auditorium Jan. 27. Harvey, known as "Happy Harvey," is a pianist and or ganist of rare abilities, mu sicianship and showmanship. During his program he pre sented many novelty numbers such as developing an original tune from telephone numbers or license plate numbers. The Hedrick Junior High student body seemed to enjoy his mixed program of humor and melody. The ninth grade boys' phys ical education classes began their sessions of bowling at the Medford Bowling lanes, Monday. Instructions and ad ditional help are provided as well as the necessary equip ment by the Medford Bowl ing Lanes. The course is free and lasts three weeks with two sessions' a week.

Students dressed in their best, all faced the little black box and looked "pretty" for the photographer. To arounse enthusiam among the boys at the basket ball games, a White Shirt club has been organized at PHS. For their mascot the boys made a black cannon which they plan to display at fu ture games. The cannon is decorated with a black flag, flying the "skull and cross bones." The boys, as a group, wear their white shirts on Fridays and at pep assemblies.

Africa M.D. Geo. N. Taylor The old man was so close to death that the crowded hospital only kept him over night. Next morning he was sent back to die in his little hut there in the African jungle. The two African nurses chosen to look after him on the journey, used to run that same jungle as wild savages not so many years before. Now they had education, training and their mires: unifnrm T.,ikf so manv converts from black, hopeless heathendom, they ever sought to win others to the Christian faith. But this old man stood them off. Then, just before they reached his hut, the old man shouted "I'm saved. The blood of Jesus Christ has washed away my sins. I'm saved! I'm saved!" By the nurses witness, by Christ's blood and by someone's pray ers, yours, maybe the old man went home to glory. (This from a Missy M.D.'s letter from So. Africa).
