Arlene Matthews states: "As a whole, ahort hair on both Rlrls and boys seems more attractive to me. Of course, "extravagance" such as a crewcut on a girl or a 'Davcv Crockett' on a boy Isn't very at tractive either, No hair style looks well, if It Isn't well kept. So be careful in arranging your hair, kids." ' Lucille Rider says, "I like long hair, and one person I especially like It on Is Stella Lummus." Rita Wallaca prefers long hair of the "red" variety and on a mall girl, Maryann Blackburn seems to prefer "flat-tops" or "Princeton" for boys, and long hair for girls. The color "dark brown" or "blonde" Is her favorite. Sharon Rowe especially likes red hair and long hair, because she believes they look more appropri ate lOr BUUICIHJCIl. IWUS.

Editor's Scrapbook By MAL'RKKN GRIFFITH Klamaih Union High School's traditions have vanished over the years but the ones we have lelt should be observed. Fust of all, the senior bench Is for the seniors not the juniors, sophomores, or freshmen. This tradition Is one that the seniors deserve for after three years o! xhool they might need to sit down. Another. Is "seniors leave first." You should always have respect for your ciders; so let the seniors get into the halls before the rest of the students. Also the freshman boys are to paint the block "K" every year and all of thein should have been there. It Isn't too much work. You should always keep on the right side of the hall and though this Is not exactly a tradition, it is a good idea to practice for the halls are quite crowded. After games the bell in front of the school is sometimes rung and the students shouldn't tamper with the bell or deface it. You should n't climb over It or put shoes and books and such on top of the bell. So really, when you start to do something against the traditions of the school, don't think it's rmart, It lust shows you have no respect for the school or for the people who started the traditions. ft Senior Spotlight ft SYLVIA WOOD SYLVIA'S disc favorites are "Seventeen" end "Black Den im Trousers."

'Utiie Theater' History By FRlvD HEARD One oi K'.amadi Union High's mosL fccinatln' rooms is the Lit tle Theater, were all of KUHS' drama shows h-?ia and end.- It's history from the advent to the present day Is almost legendary. Mr. Paul T. Jackson, the school's administrator In 1927, was the first man to assume the re sponsibility of chr using the grav eled parking lot into a machine shop, w.nch was later to become the Little Theater. Interesting to note is that Mr. Harold Teale was the machine shop's first instructor. , DAN HITCHCOCK DAN PREFERS "flat-tops" in hair-does, and dislikes Rooks who persist in breaking tra ditions. Photo by Guderian Pelican Voet ENCHANTMENT By Joann Geiss As through this ethereal night I pass. The stars shine enmasse: And nothing 'seems to be amiss. Everything's filled with heavenly bliss. TEACHERS AS WE SEE 'EH V " - Givtaev'1 Next faculty member to play prominent role in the thespians' playhouse was Mr. Lloyd Emery, currently serving KU as an Eng lish linstructor. who authorized the construction of the Theater In the old shop space. At this time the only stage was a platform in front of the room. Before the actual construction , began, - the area served as a repair shop for buses. The presence of grease was so bad that Mrs. Blomquist, drama Instructor, had to wash the grease away, with a steam hose each week. When Mr. Emery started the building of the new annex, which today houses the Krater and News Nugget rooms, he arranged that the girls P.E. office be changed Into a passageway to the Little Theater and main auditorium stage. Mrs. Blomquist, who today is affectionately known as "Blo my," conducted classes In room 219, which tqday is occupied by Mr, Joseph Keuter. Construction was finally com pleted In 1941, when Mr. Arnold Gralapp assumed the reins as Klamath Union High's principal. The final improvement was made last year under the supervision of Principal Charles Carlson, when this administrator approved the in stallation of a circulating fan an, a new floor in the back storage room. One penny was the spectators' admission fee for the Little The ater's first production which was entitled "Country Mountain Peo ple." Mrs. Blomquist has taught here since 1932. Students, parents and her large audience of friends have often wondered how Mrs. Blomquist's nickname "B 1 o m y" originated. Some . friends of the Instructor tagged her son "Big Blomy" and herself "Little Blomy." When her son died In 1940, the "Little" was dropped, and to this day "Blomy" is a legend at KUHS. Another Interesting fact is the patronage which the "Little The ater" has enjoyed. More than 300,. 000 students and parents have passed through the portals of this showhouse In miniature. Two thou sand shows have been produced, and nearly 2000 students have par ticipated in their production. Students who have cast their lot In show business, and who have received their start on the Little Theater's stage are Ross Coble, Ronnie Hannon and Gene St. John, all of whom have received import ant contracts. 'Cots Eye Game By BRENT CALDWELL Klamath Union High's Junior var sity Wildcats tangle with Sacred Heart this Tuesday on the KUHS field, according to Coach Dick Valllancour. Other JV games for the season are with Medford, Grants Pass and Ashland.

O Toole, veteran KUHS teacher instrueti you. At least that I the opinion of Cliff Sutherland, who was receiving personal tu toring when the Nugget photographer entered the room. Behind Cliff is Beverly Swanien who it alto working very diligently. Linda Worley, peering from behind Mr. O'Toole, seems mused at the lituation.
