Sid Young Iep Club The Pep Club has had quite a full schedule this week. To get the veek off to a good start we had Pep Club initiation, and boy did some of us poor kids get it. Those being Initiated had to dress like Aunt Jemima. They were stuffed with pillows, had faces all black, and wore one high heel and one flat shoe. They could not use any personal pronoun that day. Friday, all the Pep Club members mem-bers went to the game at Wasatch. The Pep Club has done a good job in getting the school spirit going in the halls this year.

FARMERS' SUPPLY CO., INC. 1 L Delta Rabbits Swarm Wasatch Tigers, Friday, with Impressive 40-7 Score It was the Wasatch Tigers that bowed to the might of the Delta Rabbits October 7th. The gridiron duel took place on the Wasatch Academy football field and the Delta Rabbits carried off a 40-7 victory. vic-tory. The Delta team held th'e Tigers scoreless until the latter part of the fourth quarter when they went through the center for 3 yds. and racked up a TD. Their kick for extra ex-tra point was good and that totaled total-ed their 7 points. Delta's TD's came in the first, third, and fourth quarters quar-ters with Scott Callister, Jerry Bennett, Ben-nett, Lonnie Hales, Glenn Lovell, Dick Talbot, and Kay Lovell making mak-ing the TD's. Delta received on the kickoff and powered their way down the field for a TD. It was Scott Callister on a quarterback keep, who went the final 4 yds. around the left end. Scott Callister held and Dick Talbot Tal-bot kicked the extra point. Then, Delta recovered a Wasatch fumble on Wasatch's first play in the first quarter, and on the first down Jerry Jer-ry Bennett went 16 yds around the left end for Delta's second ID. The attempt for PATD was unsuccessful unsuccess-ful and the first quarter ended with the score 13-0. In the second quarter Delta was unable to do much more than have penalties called against them and the half came with Delta on the Wasatch 8 yd. line and with the score still Delta 13, Wasatch 0. Delta came back full of fight in the third quarter and scored three times without much difficulty. The third TD of the game came when Lonnie Hales took the ball from the quarterback and went for 9 yds. through the right side of the line. The kick for extra point was no good but it was not long before the Rabbits were again muscling their way toward the Wasatch goal.

It was Wasatch on a pass play that gave Delta their fifth touch down of the game.

It was Scott Callister who ended the third quarter shortly after Delta had returned the ball to Wasatch with the score 33-7. Delta's last TD came when Jerry Huff completed a pass to Kay Lovell Lov-ell who was already over the goal line. Scott Callister then kicked his third extra point. Shortly after this Wasatch made their 7 points. The game ended with Delta leading 40-7. On October 14th, at 2:30 Delta meets North Sanpete at Delta. The 1 Delia, Utah 14th being Homecoming will very possibly draw a large crowd fo see the game. The following Thursday Delta goes to Millard to play the Millard Eagles. This will prove to be a very interesting game Scott Nickle (TITLE PENDING) In the past years many talented people have graduated from dear ol' DHS. They've advanced and made us very proud of them, but behind them remain their youthful thoughts captured on paper. These people aren't forgotten, indeed they are the big brothers and sisters sis-ters of our DHS family. We look to them with admiration as they've found happiness and success In their lives. To you "big brothers and sisters" we extend an invitation to still remain re-main an active part of our student-body. student-body. Our hopes are that you haven't, hav-en't, and won't forget us as your family. If you should find a special selection, written by you are someone some-one you knew while attending DHS, please feel free to contact the Mo Del staff. We are interested in what you have done. This week, because this is homecoming home-coming week, we are beginning a new feature column entitled " " (any sug- gestions, Alumni?) Selections by DHS grads will be used. Jessie Lynn (Cook) Gillette has written our first selection which is a tribute to her late grandfather. Jessie graduated from DHS in 1951 and following her graduation she continued her studies at the University Uni-versity of Utah. Through the years of 1958-59 and 1959-60 Mrs. Gillette taught the fifth grade in the Delta Elementary School. This past year she has been doing secretarial work at the Moody Bros Seed Co. Jessie Lynn penned this tribute just a short while before her grandfather grand-father left us and it holds one of the top rate positions in an "English "Eng-lish Teacher's Notebook." HIS KNOWLEDGE EVER GROWS His overcoat draped over his shoulders capelike and carrying a , book or a paper, Grandpa walks ! with brisk steps to work each j morning. His blue eyes alert; thin, wiry body very erect. Under his ac- quiline nose grows a thin gray mustache and on his chin is a trim goatee. When his hat is off you notice how neatly his ears lie tight to his head with closely cropped hair parted on the side and comb ed well. Although he writes and uses the typewriter a lot, his hands are not soft. T'ley are rough and stained with printer's ink, the red knuckles chapped and the blue veins standing out. I can still remember how Grandpa Grand-pa used to hold me on his knee and read stories to me, pausing to explain and teaching me to pronounce pro-nounce words beyond my vocabulary. vocabu-lary. Knowing my fondness for horses he drew little cartoons of horses I told him about and gave them to me. One day he gave me a pair of gloves hand-made by his Indian friend. He explained the meaning of the rigid little figure beaded on the gloves and praised me for remembering re-membering its meaning. Praise from Grandpa was the highest of success for me. Grandpa never went to college. His father did not believe in it, and so he went to work. All of his higher knowledge is self-taught. He once bought an old phonograph on which he could record his own dictation. Then he would practice for hours taking shorthand at his own dictation. Doing this, he be came accomplished enough to teach in a business college. When Grandpa came to Millard County he became more and more interested in the geology and Indian In-dian lore of the county. He never went in for athletics, but would drop everything and hike or camp out for days pursuing his geological geolog-ical or Indian lore. One very hot summer day a group of fat, shabby Indians came to see Grandpa. They were brown and greasy-looking, dressed in calico cal-ico and khaki. The little ones hung , on their mothers' skirts and peered around with wide brown eyes. Grandpa stopped his writing and talk'ed with them. Then gathering up the whole herd, he marched them down to the drugstore for an ice cream cone. With smeary faces and happy smiles they then posed for a picture. Many nights Grandpa has pointed point-ed out constellations and stars to me. The first I learned to recognize recog-nize was Orion. Pointing out stars to a little girl is not an easy job. We also looked through his telescope tele-scope at the moon once, and he explained the craters to me. He sits by the fire smoking his nipe, eyes intent and foot swing-i'ig swing-i'ig lazily. Dickens, Shakespeare, Mark Twain, Kipling and Greek philosophers are friends to him. No amount of research is too much for Grandpa. I have seen pages and pages of figures written in his small precise hand discarded because be-cause his, computations displeased him. His studies never end, his interests in-terests never end, his knowledge ever grows.

Mrs. Clayton YOUR LITERATOR- What do you think? Yes, what' is your opinion of this two percent system? You know the one I mean; that system that allows the teachers teach-ers to murder your grades every time you get sick, by hacking off two percent for every day. I've talked to some of the kids, and I haven't found one who likes it. Why? Well, do you think it's fair for the football team to take a cut in grades because they play an afternoon aft-ernoon game? Or for any student-body student-body member to have his grade cut for an excused absence over which he had no control? Other students say they don't like it because it isn't fair. They say it's partial to certain grade areas. Even if you aren't the best mathematician in the world, it isn't hard to see that. On the current system of ninety to one hundred points as an "A", it would take a cut of nearly six percent per-cent or three absences to drop it to an "A". But if you are in the "C" range, and most of us are, a cut of only two or three percent, one or two absences, will make a "C " out of it. The real purpose of this system, was, I believe, to try to stop some of the stuffing. My current opinion is that it has done nothing for this one way or the other. It someone wants to cut school, I doubt if a two percent cut in grades will stop him. Note: I said my current opinion, which means I'm open to comments or suggestions. The teachers seem to like this system; so it must have some good points, even if they are not instantly visible. So, students, teachers, parents, or anyone, if you have an opinion or comments on this system, whether they be pro or con, PLEASE let me know. (An epitome epi-tome of these opinions will be presented pre-sented two weeks from this date. The delay 's necessary to enable me to gather and summarize these opinions). Ted Spendlove U.N.

FLUSH WALL-TO-WALL INSTALLATION NO RUSTING ALL STEEL CABINET From the Office Of the Principal By Their Fruits Ye Shall Enow Them Last year we had a graduating class of 88 students, all enthusiastic enthusi-astic with the spirit of Delta High School and with the determination to further their education and become be-come fine citizens in this great state of ours. It has been interesting interest-ing to follow their progress and to find that by far the majority of these people have entered institutions institu-tions of higher learning and are doing very well in their work. We find that of the 88 graduates 63 are attending school. There are 18 of the 88 married and several of these married couples are attending attend-ing school. We find that many of them are assuming the roles of leadership in the various activities in the schools they are attending. We estimate that 75 of our students stu-dents are or will be attending colleges col-leges within the state. This is a commendable record and one that we at Delta High School are very proud of. We have received letters from students concerning their entrance en-trance examinations. One in particular par-ticular reports having passed her English examination with 99 perfect. per-fect. We are sure that all of these students who are away from home attending schools will do well in representing this area and Delta High in particular. To me this is a compliment to the parents who sent them, to the students themselves who have the desire to go on, and to the teachers who have aided in preparing them so adequately for the work they are engaging in. We are eagerly awaiting news of successes suc-cesses that these Individuals we are sure are attaining, and we would appreciate information regarding re-garding these successes.
