Show w D. H. S. NewsReport From the Office Of the Principal I had a opportunity to attend a workshop for high school principals, princi-pals, this past summer, where I received re-ceived much help and stimulation toward the work and planning of this year's activities. One of the guest speakers at this conference was Miss Afton Fors-gren, Fors-gren, assistant director of secondary second-ary schools in the State of Utah. Her philosophy appealed to me. She is a former teacher of English, and from her experience and educational edu-cational background she stimulated me to want to do something to build a stronger English depart-' depart-' ment in Our high school; so I wrote Miss Forsgren, asking her to visit our school and talk to our English teachers. She was very happy to oblige, and on September 18th she spent the whole day with us visiting visit-ing classes and talking to our teachers. tea-chers. At the close of the day we called all of the English teachers together for a final visit with her. She was especially interested in our experience with the u s e of para-professional help in the person per-son of Mrs. Hansen and her role of helper to Mrs. Clayton. She stat-.ed stat-.ed that this type of work is being tried in several schools In the state and she complimented us on our effort. Miss Forsgren was also pleased to see our program of reading in D.H-S. IT EE EE oi the Week ,' P X SUSAN ASHBY The teen this week is energetic Susan Ashby. She is the second of eight daughters of Carl and Alta Ashby of Delta. Her class schedule includes: Bookkeeping, .English 12, Shorthand, Short-hand, Political Science, Chemistry, Pep Club, and Seminary. Despite our seventh and eighth grades. She this heavy schedule she carries a told our District Superintendent that .we had a very fine English faculty and that we were doing very well. A few fine suggestions she left with us were: Do more to establish objectives for each grade from kindergarten through 12th (especially (espe-cially from 7-12) and correlate these objectives so that we will have a continuous program, all teachers aware of what is being taught in grades above and below the level they are teaching; pinpoint pin-point the errors in grammar most frequently made in our school and then solicit the help of everyone to correct the errors. It was a very worthwhile . experience ex-perience for all of us; we surely appreciate the help our State department de-partment gives us. Our Faculty- Miss Patsy Ann Hansen, born in Leamington, lived there until she was fourteen. She attended Delta Junior High as a 7th and an 8th grader. Her parents then moved to Payson where she continued her schooling. She graduated from Pay-son Pay-son High as one of the nine highest Honor Roll Students. By attending summer school each summer, she graduated from the B.Y.U. in three years, graduating last May. She chose to begin her teaching career at Delta High School; we are indeed happy to have her in our Home Ec. Department. Miss Patsy Hansen enthusiastically enthusiasti-cally remarks of D. H. S.: "Oh, I love it! ! Although this i3 my first year of teaching, I find it is not too difficult and I am really happy. The department is very nice and most of the students have good attitudes. I' think we have a wonderful Principal and the teachers have certainly been helpful."

The Rabbits were hampered from the beginning when Bud Bailey sprained his ankle in the pre-game calisthenics and Harold Knight had his eye gashed in the opening minutes min-utes of the game.

OB PHONE 5125 EDITORIAL . . . Last Friday we all experienced what happens when our team must thrive without the help of a cheering cheer-ing studentbody. It was a good test and we can be glad it was a practice game we used for an example. ex-ample. An expression from one of our trusty athletes preceding the encounter, "1 sure wish the studentbody stu-dentbody could go to the game. There is little reason to play to win if we have no one there to win for." Of course, this was just one at titude and an exclusive one at that. We should realize that even though our studentbody is unable to attend, our team does have someone to win for. Our teams athletic, dramatic. scientific, music, business, and all others represent our studentbody and D. H. S. as a whole. Success should be, and probably is, the goal strived for as the "bail bounces Into play or as the opening curtain rises or, as many decisions must be made in our young lives. We should not let the fact over rule our minds that just because we are small and few unsupported by our friends we are inclined to meet defeat. We have got "it", but sometimes we must dig a little deeper to find it. As our school work begins and our league play gets underway, we must learn to push harder, dig deeper, and WIN, Marsha Alldredge Lions on their long scoring streak. After much ball handling, especially es-pecially by Payson, the first quarter quar-ter ended with- the Lions 20, Delta 0. During the second quarter Delta started with the ball, but Payson still succeeded in attaining 14 big points, making the score Payson 34, Rabbits 0. The third quarter passed scoreless, score-less, but in the final quarter the Lions fought their way to an additional ad-ditional 14 points and the game ended with Delta 0, Payson 48.

As well as some new standard typewriters, our school now owns a number of Remington, Underwood, Royal and I. B.

Our new Office Practice class will indeed "benefit from these additions. ad-ditions. Considering the capacities of our school, we may safely assume that we have one of the better business departments of the state. Eloise Johnson OUR LITERAT03 Two years ago my predecessor, Ted Spendlove, wrote several articles arti-cles pertaining to a regulation concerning con-cerning absences. The new policy took two percent from the student's stu-dent's grade for each period he missed. This year several innovations to this policy have been added, which the student and his parents should know about. Credit Giren During Year Dependent on Makeup Work If a student misses more than four periods of any class during a term, his teacher is responsible for two actions against him. First, the student is given makeup work. This is to be at least twice the amount of work covered during his absence. This assignment should be handed in to the teacher within two weeks at the most after the assignment is given. Second, the teacher is to file, in the office, a makeup card for this student. Upon receipt of makeup work, the teacher will destroy des-troy the card. If this card does stay In the file the class will be considered con-sidered uncompleted, and credit given student will depend on the number of cards in the file. The students I have talked to think the policy is much too strict but can not see that it is unfair in any way. Principal Bennett stated in an interview; that as far as possible the policy will be followed to the letter; however, . . . "the faculty has the right to negotiate with the student." "It has been a problem during past years on what policy to use when students rr.lss a large number num-ber of classes. Some have missed more than fifty periods of a class during one year," reminisced Mrs.' Schena. mere is nope around the school that this policy holds th key to a fairer means of airina I ha ihiilanti t a credit where it is due. The -general feeling is summed up well by Mr. Bennett, "the success suc-cess of this policy depends a lot on attitude; if the students are here to gain knowledge we can do a lot with them."
