Last Wednesday the Seniors deserted de-serted the school work for a day of fun on their Senior Sneak. The sleepy-eyed Seniors boarded the buses and left Delta at 7 a.m. for American Fork. Upon arrival at the State Training School, the Seniors were escorted to the auditorium where they were shown the types of patients at the school. After visiting the nursery the Seniors boarded the buses thinking how lucky they are that they are in good health. The Seniors obtained obtain-ed a better understanding of Mental Men-tal Retardedness while at the schooL Wednesday was School Day at Lagoon; so only high school students stud-ents and faculty could enjoy the fun that was In store for all who went. The Seniors spent about two hours riding the coaster, octapus, space scrambler, roll-o-plane, whip, Ferris wheel; visiting the photo booths; enjoying the fun, spook, and crazy houses, and all the other things there were to do. I On the way home the buses stop ped at Tpoele and the kids spent what seemed an hour trying to decide de-cide what would go the easiest on their stomachs. (Some of the rides at Lagoon left a number of the kids rather topsy-turvy.) After leaving Tooele some of the boys got a "going over" like curled eye-lashes, powdered noses, and ratted hair. Maybe they will appreciate ap-preciate the girls a little more from now on. The buses returned to Delta with their cargo of tired, but happy, Seniors at about 8 p.m. Everyone who went had a very enjoyable time a time that won't soon be forgotten.

It f.MWkA i- J : i i" . f ! : From the Office Of the Principal Delta High is proud of its 1961-62 1961-62 graduating class. It is rather interesting in-teresting to look back over the 3 ye"ars this Senior class has been in Delta High School. They came into our school the same year that I came into it. We had our problems many adjustments to be made. They were a group of people who were eager to promote fine ideals that would make for them a very wholesome school in which to work. In 1959 at our fall registration we found this group of people from the Junior High School numbering 105 people.. They were timid and shy, having a new Principal, a new Secretary, and three new teachers introduced to them. So things were strange and a little different, but the class fell into the swing of th.ngs and were soon taking their place as leaders in our school. A few interesting facts concerning this class are worthy of mention. During the three years these people peo-ple have been in attendance at D. H.S., the school has experienced some great accomplishments: We have been represented at the State Basketball Tournament all three years. These seniors were here to help celebrate the victory over Millard Mil-lard .the first time in 19 years. They have helped produce three of the finest operas the school has ever put on. They have had their share of glory in the production of the magazine, Mnemosyne. They have experienced a congenial relationship re-lationship with our local publisher who has published D.H.S. News Reports as a part of the Chronicle. From the original 105, we have ad ded five new faces over the three-year three-year period; but we have also lost 14, leaving only 96 at the close of 1962. Eight of these fourteen who have left the class dropped out of school work permanently; 6 transferred trans-ferred to other schools. This trend is rather significant in our school. The fact that we have lost 14 and have added only five helps to make this school year's the small est enrollment of any of the three years. From this class,, six have married and several others plan marriage this summer. This class has been instrumental in promoting promot-ing a stronger math and science program through their insistent demands. de-mands. I am not trying to say that all these things have come about altogether as a result of the graduating gradu-ating class of 1962, but surely we will recognize that they have played play-ed an important part In the development de-velopment of all these tdings. They are a divided group usually the Region Music Festival-- After weeks of practicing and rehearsals re-hearsals the D.H.S. Band and Girls' Chorus went to Cedar City Saturday, Satur-day, May 12, for the music festival. festi-val. More than 800 students from Millard, Beaver, Iron, and Washington Wash-ington counties, and Kanab participated. partici-pated. The Girls' Chorus sang three numbers, "Adoramus Te, Christe," "This Is the Garden," and "How Lovely Is Thy Dwelling Place." The judges, Blaine Johnson of CSU and Newell Weight from BYU, rated the chorus on a numerical scale 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The Girls' Chorus got a 1 rating. As this is Mr. Long's last year at Delta High, the girls are certainly thrilled to have won this rating and want to thank him for the time and patience he has spent preparing us for the contest. The band played three numbers also, "El Alamo," a march, "Fantasy "Fan-tasy On Four Notes," and "Athenian "Athen-ian Festival." Dr. Max Dalby and Alvin Wardel of USU were the judges for the bands. The band got a 3 rating for the above mentioned numbers and a 2 rating on their sight reading. Other results of the contest are as follows: BANDS 1 rating: Cedar City and Woodward Wood-ward Jr. High, St George. 2 rating: Kanab and Milford. 3 rating: Delta, Millard, Parowan, and Hurricane. 4 rating: Beaver and Enterprize. CHORUSES 1 rating: Delta Girls' Chorus, Hurricane Hur-ricane Girls' Chorus, and Cedar City's mixed chorus. 2 rating: Hurricane mixed chorus. Beaver mixed chorus, Hurricane Boys' Chorus, and Parowan Girls' Chorus. 3 rating: Milford mixed chorus, and Millard mixed chorus. 4 rating: Kanab mixed chorus. One bus broke down and students stud-ents were stalled for ' two hours, making the day more exciting. A group of girls held a funeral by the side of trie road for the dead motor of the OL broken down school bus. Tourists ' driving by couldn't figure out what was going on. Out in the middle of nowhere a bus is stalled with a group of girls singing around a freshly dug grave. The cross and dandelions on boys voting against the girls solidly, sol-idly, and they have found themselves them-selves split evenly, making It difficult dif-ficult to accomplish all they would like as a class. May we extend our hearty congratulations to this graduating grad-uating class. May their next three years be as successful and satisfactory satis-factory as the past. the grave gave an authentic atmosphere atmos-phere to the whole affair. But, In spite of tde sandstorms, wind, bus, funerals, and delays, the trip was very much worthwhile and a wonderful won-derful experience. Lexiane Merrell Appointment At Utah State Mr. Daryl M.

This in my judgment seems like an excellent plan' of procedure pro-cedure for our Government especially in their discussions with the Communists.

It is blind to play fair with Communists to whom fair play is weakness- If ever there was a time to talk softly and carry a big stick it is now. The fact that Russia wants us to disarm should make us very suspicious. The fact that she wants us to disarm without adequate inspection inspec-tion should make us distrustful. dis-trustful. The fact that Red China has no intention of disarming should make us alert.

A'a-tions. She pays for what she pleases, and she pleases to ignore payment for efforts to "estore peace and order. Take the Congo as an instance. Russia is actively participating participat-ing in the midst of the strife furthering people as leaders of her cause and sabotaging the efforts of the United Nations in the Assembly and in the field. Without question, our State Department has information informa-tion that transcends the fullest knowledge of any individual outside it. It is our policy to help certain dominated countries by purchases, pur-chases, by trade, by loans, by supplying materiel. If we expect repayment in dollars dol-lars then we must buy the products of these countries. This is so fundamental that it is impossible for me to understand how John Birchers can take their ostrich-like attitude of "don't buy the products of these certain dominated countries". e e The Administration Administra-tion requests extra powers in the regulation of tariffs.

Has anyone thought of Secretary of Labor Goldberg's background back-ground as a labor union counsel? . . . and how slanted are his opinions and decisions regarding regard-ing labor? e e "Some time ago I pointed to the Adiministration's policy of urging the unionization of government and civil employees. I stated that carried to its ultimate conclusion, con-clusion, it was entirely possible pos-sible for the police, army, navy, and all civil employees employ-ees to strike at some time. One indignant official wrote me pointing out my ignorance to the fact that in unionizing civil employees, employ-ees, each swore that he would never strike against the government ... in fact it was against the law! Oh goody I Now, how about the United Federation of Teachers (AFL-CIO) who went on strike recently to enforce their salary demands? de-mands? Sure there is a law in New York. It is the Condon-Wadlin law forbidding forbid-ding strikes by civil employees. em-ployees. It is the same kind of law that has been ignored ig-nored many, many times before by many unions throughout the nation. And still the Administration is urging civil employees to join a union ... so that their pay envelopes may be clipped regularly. It ought to be a great take for somebody. f?.

Of all the damned fools the ones that parade before the White House with banners to ban the bomb are the most foolish. If they don't remember, the records disclose dis-close that long before the Russians stole, or were given our secrets, Barney Baruch, representing the United States, offered to place our knowledge of fissionable fis-sionable materials before a selected United Nations international in-ternational group . . . for peaceful purposes! Of all things, it was the Russians who refused ! All the years the Russians were stalling at Geneva, they were preparing pre-paring for a series of some fifty bomb tests. That takes one wad of preparation. With contemptuous disregard disre-gard for opinions of the entire world, the Russians exploded one after the other. We maintained our pledged moratorium, and now the damn fools picket here to ban the bomb, whereas they would be thrown into jail if they walked (without permission) permis-sion) eight abreast in Russia. e President Kennedy has exerted ex-erted great pressure on steel companies because they tried to cover their increased loss costs with increased prices.

When will he turn the same righteous indignation on the labor unions who shut down works on missile sites quarreling over which union has the right to do a particular job? Are we going to make the same mistake twice? The Administration urges the settlement of the South Vietnam war by a coalition of the government which includes the Communists. Has everybody forgotten what happened to China when we pressured a similar sim-ilar settlement? How to win voles and influence influ-ence prices is indicated by the Administration's recent activity. After being completely com-pletely rebuked at the convention con-vention of labor leaders in Florida, and completely flouted when the electricians struck and secured a 25 hour week, the Administration was successful in exerting many pressures and great influences against the steel business. Certainly nobody wants to see spiralling prices. For inflation will hurt every body and help nobody. Yet, how union leaders can keep demanding more money and less hours without increasing increas-ing costs and prices is a mystery. If the Administration Administra-tion has forgotten that business has built our economy, eco-nomy, then let them remember remem-ber that the corporations pay 52 of taxes on every dollar of profit |
