Jones The Duchesne High School Is off to a better start than last year, with, an increased enrollment and added spirit and enthusiasm. Students in all classes are taking hold of their work with the intention of. learning all they possibly can. Activities are already being planned for a bigger year than ever. The Chorus Class of 65 members is preparing another Musical Cocktail, originating songs and skits for a better entertainment than that of last year. It Is hoped that much of our local talent will be "discovered and developed into a really fine musical production. The band and orchestra, also greater numbers, are preparing to aid in more and better activities. Several new instruments have recently been purchased by Interested band and orchestra members with the result that these organizations will function more efficiently than ever before in the history of the school. of Athletic Prospects By Coach Bliss Hoover At this time the athletic outlook at Duchesne High School appears promising for a successful campaign throughout the year. alThe individual prospects, though the majority lack experience, show ability, sportmanship, seriousness in training and enthusiasm in application. With the probable return to school of two or three more former athletes later on, the athletic program should be extremely competitive and entertaining. |
