Show "New Look At School" By Karen Moody Doesn't our school look great! We have Mr. Twitchell to thank for it. Just a few of the things done this summer were the woodwork and all the windows washed; all the lockers cleaned and repaired; two coats of paint put on the steps and upper hall; room floors mopped mop-ped and two coats of seal plus 3 coats of wax used on them; and about one third of the rooms painted paint-ed this year. The auditorium has been cleaned out and the seats repaired and tightened to the floor. The blowers blow-ers are cleaned and greased twice a month. But we have had only one assembly and already some of the seats are loose. Let's try to be more careful. Both P.E. rooms have been cleaned clean-ed thoroughly; the boys' was painted. paint-ed. Mr. Twitchell said both rooms really get wear and tear, but he said, "Girls are much cleaner and take better care of their room than the boys." I'm sure all of us want people to look at our school and say how pretty and clean it looks. You know the lawn makes it this way. It must be fertilized every year and watered very often to keep it looking look-ing nice. But do you know who ruins it? Right; we do. We make trails through it and throw papers all over it. This ruins the appearance appear-ance of it. So let's be more careful care-ful about it and keep the outside of our school immaculate. Candle-Lighting Ceremony Held By Karen Moody One of the traditional highlights of our school year is the formal candle lighting ceremony, in which the governing officers of our school are sworn in. The narrator read the following, composed by Virginia Done our assembly manager, while the light was focused on our school flag: "Symbolic of our school stands the emblem of our goals. This banner of red and white silk, is planted firm on the foundation found-ation of unconquerable faith, courage cou-rage and intelligence. FAITH we must obtain in our teachers, officers and classmates. COURAGE must we put forth to stand and speak that which we believe be-lieve to be right . . . courage to refuse that which might degrade Millard County Chronicle mm The Board of Education of the Millard County School District held their regular monthly meeting on Wednesday, Sept. 6.

The Dixie Flyers' spirits were dampened considerably con-siderably as the crushing Delta offense of-fense soundly defeated them. Delta launched itself to a brilliant bril-liant start in the 1st quarter with a pass from quarterback Richard Farnsworth to Paul Pace, a 15-yard shot into the end zone. The score stood 6-0 for Delta. The extra point attempt met fierce resistance as Dixie plugged up all the holes. On the return kick, Dixie retaliated retali-ated by an ever-pressing march up the length of the field where the whistle for the end of the first period per-iod found them on the 2-yard line. Eager and anxious, Dixie crashed through the Delta line to hit pay dirt the first play of the 2nd quarter. quar-ter. Dixie scored by an off tackle play by fullback Hafen and the score read 6-6.

Let us reacquaint ourselves with the officers whom YOU have elected. elect-ed. Support them throughout the school year, for In unity lies SUCCESS SUC-CESS OUR GOAL!" After the officers came through the "D", they took the oath of office, of-fice, administered by Principal Bennett. Ben-nett. Aims and hopes were expressed express-ed by studentbody president, class presidents, and a cheerleader, after which the candles were lit. The studentbody then stood and sang the school song; everyone left with a feeling of hope and unity for the future.

Richard Farnsworth crashed through into the end zone for an extra point which brought the score to 19-6 for the red-hot Rabbits. On the return kick-off Lonnie Hales sent the ball deep into Dixie territory, and into the end zone. With the ball on the 20-yard line, the Flyers met vicious defence by the Rabbits and soon found them-selvs them-selvs with 8 yards to go on their 4th down. Dixie moved into punt formation, but the punt blundered, Joe Lyman snagged the ball and rushed 20 yards to the goal. The half ended with the score 25-6 for the stormin' Rabbits. Delta added the coup de grace as fullback Lonnie Hales made a 13-yard 13-yard run around the left end for Delta's final TD. A short pass to Harold Knight by Farnsworth added add-ed another point to Delta's score. Late in the game, Dixie's quarterback, quar-terback, Williams, broke through the line for their final touchdown. The final gun found the score Delta Del-ta Rabbits 32, and Dixie Flyers 12. By Bob Riding, Jr. A large crowd estimated at over 700 people turned out on a windy i Friday night to see a well played game of football, the first of the1 1961 season on the Rabbits' field. As expected many costly mistakes were in evidence by both teams. The Flyers seemed to be all thumbs as they fumbled and missed miss-ed passes. The Rabbits' line had much to be desired and on occasions occa-sions gave way to the crushing blows of the Dixie Flyers. My prediction pre-diction is that both teams will improve im-prove greatly in the next few weeks, and are sure to be reckoned with in their respective leagues.. The crowd of eager spectators, hungry for the taste of victory, went wild over the spectacular plays of the Delta Rabbits, and the sideline coaches had their hands full in finding better plays than those demonstrated throughout the game. A commendable halftime demonstration demon-stration by the Del-Ettes- cannot go unmentioned. Their precision march was well-executed for this early in the season. In all, it was a very exciting evening, and as far as Coach Hor-lacher Hor-lacher is concerned, it was made especially for Delta High in their opening contest. Next week the Rabbiits play a-way a-way from home in a return game with Lincoln High School of Nevada. Neva-da. We'll be on the job to bring you our views of the encounter. o o ADDITIONAL TEACHER FOR DELTA ELEMENTARY SCHOOL In other action, the board reviewed re-viewed the attendance of the various var-ious schools in the district and authorized the employment of an additional teacher at the Delta Elementary School because of the enrollment increase at this school.

Do you long for those long leisure hours by the pool, the hours dragging "main", the water-skiing, late parties and dances? Do you long to kick off your shoes, go with uncombed hair, and just relax!? Well, guess what? You're not alone, 302 other students stu-dents are in the same boat! As another consolation, just remember, re-member, the teachers too are perhaps per-haps missing those long summer days! They are missing TV shows, reading those best sellers, taking those fishing trips and working in the fields Except, that is, those who spent a whole summer away at school ugh! Some are missing their night shifts on summer jobs and they especially miss TRYING to sleep during the day while their youngest daughter pulls the cat's tail directly under their window! And we thought theirs was the easy job of making assignments. But would you REALLY like 12 months of summer? Just think of all you'd miss if you did have "twelve long months" of summer. The trembling of the Sophomores, their bewildered feeling and the great sense of accomplishment with the completion of the Sophomore Swing. The great thrill of YOUR Junior Prom, and the mixed emotions emo-tions of the "mighty" Seniors. Also, Al-so, there's the pride in our school as each one comes to cherish the strength and character that our DHS stands for. No, I doubt anyone any-one would honestly want to miss all this. So, welcome everyone! Whether you are here for the first time or coming back again. Flag Raising Rites Held at School By Ema Lea Taylor Everyone has heard the sound of a bugle, being played every morn ing and afternoon at the start ana end of school. Everyone knows that it is part of the flag raising and lowering ceremony. The faculty and studentbody officers thought' this would be a good way to bring the feeling of patriotism stronger into the hearts of everyone in the studentbody. j The teachers and studentbody of-! ficers also decided that although many of us can't see the flag as is is being raised and .lowered everyone should stand, face the' east or the flag if you can see it, and salute the flag. j Not everyone in the studentbody pays the proper respect that our flag deserves. A few of the stud-J ents won't stop what they are do-( ing to salute the flag while others talk or move around while they are saluting. Everyone in the studentbody should think about all the work and hardships many people have gone through so that Old Glory can fly over this country. We should all remember what our American flag stands for and pay the respect which it deserves it is the least we can do. So stand at attention, face the flag, place your hand over your heart and pause to reflect What does freedom In a free country actually mean to you Be Grateful. Rulon Starley, of Ogden, with his son Hal, of Los Angeles, and two grandsons were in Delta Saturday to visit Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Starley and rabbit hunting for the boys in areas where their grandfather used to bag many bunnies. Hal Starley, born at Delta, is a jet pilot for Western Airlines, and spending a vacation in Utah. 'AMM i I rU. .fir uia rou iinoi... y He knew where to hit! On of th early engineering feats in Utah was th big Cornish pump which raised waters from the fabulous Ontario Mine at Park City. It could pump 3,606.404 jrallom of water each day, lifting it 400 feet out of the mine. One day the Cornish pump stopped. Nothing would get it going again and the rising water In the mine was a serious danger. In desperation a Scottish Scot-tish engineer working in a competitive mine was summoned. He climbed up on the pump flywheel, struck it mighty blow with an ordinary ordi-nary sledge hammer and the pump started turning again. He was thanked profusely end congratulated for his skill and know-how. His bill was $1,000. The outraged mine operators sent the hill back and demanded an itemization. The engineer replied as follows: For hitting the wheel with a hammer. 50e. for knowing where to hit the wheel, $999.50. Knowing your business Is Important. Especially is this true with an organi-tation organi-tation like the U.S. Brewers Association Associa-tion whose trained staff is constantly at work to help preserve orderly, well-regulated well-regulated conditions for the sale cf beer and ale, the light beverages cf moderation enjoyed in Utah. From the Office Of the Principal The school is underway as far as we can tell, and everything is working smoothly. We have 21 teachers handling 121 classes to 303 students. Our eniollment is down this year by twelve students. We have 97 Sophomores, 114 Juniors, and 92 Seniors. Of the twelve students not returning, we can account for them in the following manner: One was married, one is in the service of our country, eight families have moved away, and two students obtained work permits and are employed. We have served 816 meals to our Senior High School the first four days of school, an average of 204 meals per day. May we suggest a few things that might be helpful to our new students and especially our Sophomores. Soph-omores. Would you watch the bulletin bul-letin board for instruction and especially es-pecially for telephone calls you are to make. Whenever you are absent from school, we would appreciate a note from home, and it is especially espe-cially necessary that you check at the office before you attend your first class. You are probably getting get-ting acquainted with our bell system. sys-tem. It gives you five minutes between be-tween classes, which we feel is ample time to get to class on time. We have adopted as a slogan for all students at D.H.S. "Time is valuable val-uable spend it wisely." We are thrilled with the attitude of our studentbody and the fine work of our student council. It is an assurance for a very successful year. Former 4-H Club Members Have Peace Corp Invite Are you a former 4-H Club member mem-ber eighteen years of age or older?
