Because of the weather that prevailed pre-vailed throughout the game, it may have reminded some of the players and spectators of last year's game with the Redmen from Cedar City. Had it rained any harder the players would have had to swim their plays instead of running or passing them. In the first quarter of play the Beavers found Richard Farnsworth carrying the mail for the first touchdown, and Paul Pace receiving receiv-ing a pass for the extra point In the second quarter of play with the high-jumping, zig-zagging, and lightning speed of Phil Adams, the Rabbits gained 25 yards, which OUR LITERATOR- A parade will start at 11:00 o-'clock o-'clock Thursday morning. For several sev-eral minutes the units of the parade pa-rade will seem to float as in a dreamland fantasy, past the spectators spec-tators that will line the parade route. A few minutes later, and the usefulness of the floats will be over. Several hours later nothing will remain but a few scattered piles of napkins and crepe paper, several rolls of chicken wire, a few pieces of broken lathe, and a wagon, wa-gon, useful for the mundane duty of hauling hay. For the two weeks preceding Homecoming these wagons are the scene of intense and laborious activity; ac-tivity; many man-hours are spent on each, covering the tare wood so that its brief moment of glory can blossom (fluoresce). Materials bought at great expense ex-pense approximately half of each float's cost later will be placed in a metal or cement pyre; the touch of a match and non-negotiable smoke will pour forth. The other materials will be hoarded into a basement, garage, or other hiding place, not to be used until the next Homecoming. An enormous amount of planning precedes Homecoming Day. Committees Com-mittees are created to provide the ground-work for the parade, assembly, assem-bly, game, and dance; and then another committee co-ordinates these. Committees from every club, class, and school organization put in many hours to plan prize-winning floats. 'A lot of work?" "You know it!" "Is it worth it?" "Yes!" Such is the feeling of the student body regarding Homecoming Day, They enjoy the planning. They dig into the labor involved; but, best of all, comes Homecoming Day when the students can view their own work with pride and another teen a work with appreciation. "School should provide a balanced bal-anced educational experience." the orizes Principal Bennett And indeed it should. During preparations pre-parations for Homecoming a student stu-dent has opportunities for leadership, leader-ship, co-operation, comradeship, and the learning of skills that might not be learned elsewhere. But the most important goal of Homecoming is the participation of the graduate. AlurrnL this is your day. Perhaps these words of Principal So News Reports: assignments, and a member of that commendable group eager to do more than is required. Since Delene has excelled in the commercial field, she is one of fourteen girls chosen to take Office Of-fice Practice. Delene is our Social Manager this year and demonstrates good leadership in filling the position, as she is very friendly and has a knack for makng and keeping friends. Last year Delene was the Reporter Repor-ter for the W.A.A. She also represented repre-sented the school as a member of the Shorthand team. This year she is also a member of the F.H.A. and the Pep Club. She expresses interest in each, for she has the desire to become a proficient profic-ient homemaker and she is an energetic en-ergetic teen. Delene says she enjoys all types of sports; she has proved this by her past active participation in W. A.A. where she excelled in basketball basket-ball She also loves to read and is often seen, book in hand, enthusiastically enthusi-astically porclaiming the book's worth. In her comments about the school Delene states: "Some of my happiest memories are of my two years at Delta High School and I am looking forward to the rest of my Senior year with much anticipation. antici-pation. I am very happy to be a member of this Studentbody. "We have one of the best faculties facul-ties that can be found anywhere and we students owe them a great deal." We wish Delene much success as she finishes her year at D.H.S. and continues on to the higher institution institu-tion of her choice.

This is the way the scoring went by quarters: Delta 7 7 0 014 Bearer 0 0 0 6 Because of the weather, Mrs. Mc-Call Mc-Call said, and I quote, "The Pep Club will not swim at halftime." We hope the weather will be fine for Homecoming on October 18 so that the Pep Club can march. Our next gridiron battle will find the Rabbits vieing with the Wasps at Nephi, October 12. Stanley K. Robison Bennett's can close this article much better than I shall ever be able to: "Homecoming Day was originat ed three years ago with the idea that the strongest support the DHS has comes from the Alumni Association. This is still their school and we feel that Homecoming is a good way to welcome them into these halls." Bob Barber From the Office Of the Principal A group of Seniors came into my office today to talk to me concerning concern-ing the tests that are being administered admin-istered In our school. Some seem to think they had little or no significance sig-nificance to the subjects taught. Some felt they were too hard, and some wondered why they had to have the tests at all. Tests are important if used properly. prop-erly. They can be a splendid teaching teach-ing aid, indicating to a teacher the areas that need to be stressed and perhaps retaught. If used properly they can serve as a stimulant for the student a challenge to be met. They can. of course, tell the teach er the story of how well the stu dent has studied. All tests are given for a definite purpose and should never be given unless there Is a definite purpose in mind. Some test subject matter, some are given to develop ability to think clearly, to be able to recall; re-call; and some challenge our skill to analyze. But the teacher gains knowledge of her students when the test is corrected. A better understanding of that particular individual can be had through a careful analysis of each test. Some students do better bet-ter with oral quiz, but others like a chance to do independent thinking think-ing with the use of a written test. I would suggest, you students, test your ownselves. Your attitude toward a test might chanee. How- tpvpr I rfrt fI that Uiirhpp rp extremely careful that the tests they administer have specific application appli-cation to the subject taught; that they do indicate the things they would like the students to recall and to retain as information. 1 am hoping that these tests are being used as teaching devices in our school and thst from the Infor mation teachers receive from these tests will be a key to the things that need to be stressed. I ft:- .r-v LJi am Mnemosyne . . . DIIS Literary Talent Recently 1t has come to the staffs attention that" many of our school's patrons and even D. H. S. students are not fully aware of our school's literary magazine, Mnemosyne. We feel that by not knowing what Mnemosyne is nor what it stands for, you are missing a rare literary treat. Mnemosyne is a collection of short stories, poems, and essays written by D.H.S. students. The material for this magazine is gathered gath-ered from English 11 and 12 theme material some three thousand compositions. Of these approxi mately five hundred are submitted to the Mnemosyne staff, with numbers num-bers replacing names. The staff chooses from this material that to make up Mnemosyne. Because of the public's lack of knowledge about our magazine, we have at present over 150 copies of the past four issues on hand. We feel that if the public were made aware of our magazine they would want to read and enjoy it. During Homecoming, Oct. 18, we plan to acquaint you with our magazine mag-azine by setting up a stand in the High School. We urge you to come and buy a copy. The price per copy is only fifty cents for each of the first three issues and one dollar for the fourth issue 83 pages of local high school talent display.

The majority of students seem to have a real desire to learn and they seem to know where they are going in life.
