350 volunteers and servicemen.

USO, who came here, for the
ceremony from San Francisco.
He stressed the importance of
the need for the public tQ. re
member that just because some
service clubs are closing there
are still large 'numbers open,
which will continue to servo un-
- til late 1947. He added that the
many men still serving -in -the
armed forces deserve all the at-
, tention the public can give, and
, that their needs must not be
forgotten.
Special awards were present-
i ed to volunteers who have

KUHS will have a revised
scheduling of classes next year.
With the beginning of school
There will be V!i
no home room is
period, as there 3
is now, the first q
thing m the
sfiirihiits' will SMS!
instead go to H
first period
class. First and Joan O'Neill
second period periods will be
50 minutes in length instead of
the present 55 minutes. Next will
come a 40-minute home room
period in which roll will be
taken. This period is the basis
for the whole schedule change.
Activity Period
An activity period has been
needed to cut down on interrup
tions during class time by assem
blies and club meetings. In the
future almost all assemblies will
be placed in this period and club
meetings will have to be sched
uled in advance so that there
will not be conflicts. When there
is no activity the time will be
used as a study period. Follow
ing the activity period students
will go to third period class.
Afternoon periods will remain
the same except that the classes
will be 50 minutes long and
school will be out at 10 minutes
to 4 o'clock. The library study
hall will still remain in the
period schedules.
It is possible that sometimes
the morning home room period
and the third period may be re
versed so as to be used at a
better advantage for assemblies.
This change was passed by a
large majority of teachers. How
ever, the arrangement of an ac
tivity period was in ellect a tew
years back in the halls of KUHS
on a sliehtlv diflerent oasis.
The annual spring concert
which was presented by the
music department last night at
school Dlayed to a capacity audi
ence. The program consisted of
numbers by the band, girls' glee
club, orchestra, a cappella choir.
The program was varied with
numbers running from classical
to the more modern tempo of
Doogie woogie. Oland Warcup,
John Best and Andrew Loney
were the directors for the num
bers. Rodney Murray was stu
dent conductor in one number.
Rod also played a clarinet solo
accompanied by the band during
the program. Incidental solos
were sung by Gordon Robinson
and Alyce Wells. Barbara Zinn,
Joanne Robinette, Marie Wright
and Patsy Hambrick were the
accompanists for the evening on
the piano.
' The performance was good. It
will be shown again' tonight at
8:30 in the auditorium. John
McClellan, Stanley McClellan,
Don Boudon, Vern Ericks, Wil
lard Brightman, Gordon Scott,
Ronnie Gulley, Bill Harper,
Dale Keasey, Clarence Hames
worked on the stage in some of
the behind the scenes work
needed to give the show. Honor
society members were ushers
for the affair and will usher
again tonight. Little. Wayne
Angel, winner of . the Adler
music contest, was a guest last
night. Wayne is in the fourth
grade at Mills. He played
Brahm's Hungarian Dance No. 6.

MERRILL, March 15 The
Irish are taking the town next

income tax return from a North

us away from the up and down
swings that are so disastrous to
our economy.
Because of its manifest ad
vantages, one wonders why the
system of Incentive payment has
got into sucn Dad odor in in
dustry generally.
THE answer isn't hard to find.
It is largely because of narrow-minded,
short-sighted, tight-
fisted EMPLOYERS who in the
past have established incentive
payment systems tpiece worn,
commissions, etc.) and then,
u-limi thov snw the pat-nines of
their employees RISING as a re

have CUT THE RATE OF PAY
thus destroying Incentive,
jtrnnpllnff initiative, and bring
ing on the distrust, the ill will
and the RETALIATION that In
variably follow cheating in bus
iness.
That, as much as anything else.
has been responsible for wreck
ing the system of incentive pay
ment which wont work unless
it is fairly and honestly handled.
As so often happens, honest
and Drocressive employers have
been made to suffer for the sins
of the dishonest and non-progressive
ones.
