From the Office Of the Princ (Following last weeks article In which I suggested Mr. Cropper would discuss the problem ol reporting re-porting student progress to parents, par-ents, I submit the following written writ-ten by Mr. Cropper:) Few situations in the school environment en-vironment are capable of creating such excitement, fear, disappointment, disappoint-ment, and general confusion as report re-port card day. Parents, students; and teachers all feel the emotional impact generated. When these emotions direct our behavior, the results have a considerable effect upon our school. With a hope that these effects can be a constructive part of our educational program, the Staff at Delta Junior and Senior High Schools is launching a study of grades and grading procedures. reporting pupil progress are: Should progress, other than that of an academic aca-demic nature, be reported; and if so, how? Should the student be compared to his fellow students or measured only against what appears ap-pears to be his natural ability? How best can teachers inform parents par-ents as to the student's achievement achieve-ment level? Many other problems exist that must also be considered, and in the final form all the decisions deci-sions should reflect the philosophy of the school. In approaching the solution to the grading problems we are asking ask-ing a panel of parents, teachers, and students to work through the problems in an Informal setting to help develop new ideas and Improve Im-prove upon old ones. We are creating creat-ing a committee of teachers to examine possible solutions and to make recommendations. We are asking individual teachers to grade in various new manners and we are asking the parents to respond to the new methods. St.. 1 11' - 1 . i . .

Homecoming Danes Puts Climax to Successful Day Our Homecoming dance was the cream to top off the day. Virginia Done, Annette Moody, and Joan Bishop took us back over the years to recall the highlights of Delta High as they sang "Remember When," our theme. Our lovely Queen Kathy Thompson Thomp-son and her two Attendants Kay Nelson and Dee Ann Nielson reigned reign-ed over the dance from their red and their white silk thrones bedecked be-decked with streamers of red and white. Our royalty danced with their attractive escorts Rick Farns-worth, Farns-worth, Phil Adams, and Stan Robl-son, Robl-son, and were serenaded by a group called the "Y's" from the BYU. The studentbody and alumni were really in swing to the music and everybody had a gay evening. Royalty Reigns At Homecoming Ronnie Baker and Carol Ann Famsworth were responsible for the selection of our Royalty for this year's Homecoming. Eleven senior girls were voted into in-to the finals: Delene Ashby, Joan Bishop, Delene Black, Deana Clements, Clem-ents, Bonnie Day, Virginia Done, Barbara Jackson, Kay Nelson, Dee Ann Nielson, Kathy Thompson, and Maralee Young. The queen and her two attendants were elected from these eleven queen candidates. The Homecoming Royalty was narrowed down to three very lovely love-ly girls for the finals. Eagerly a-waited, a-waited, the chosen Homecoming Queen was Miss Kathy Thompson. The attendants were Miss Dee Ann Nielson and Miss Kay Nelson. ll Remember When" Assembly Thrills Packed House Early morning and after school practices really paid off Thursday when the Homecoming Assembly thrilled all who were in attendance. Although a good assembly requires re-quires but one hour of the audience's audi-ence's time, many many hours go into its organization, arrangement, composition and presentation. We would like to commend our assembly, assem-bly, manager Karen Moody for the fine planning and the ground work she laid for the assembly so that when an emergency appendectomy took her from school two weeks before, the homecoming assembly was already organized. We wish to thank Virginia Done, our last year's assembly manager, who so graciously grac-iously stepped in to take Karen's place. The script was composed by Patsy Pat-sy P. MeCormick and was narrated by Mr. Pratt. Spencer Ashby, Stan Robison, Su san Reeves, Judy Shepherd, Jane Turner. Jane Beckwith, Laura Moody, Moo-dy, Althea Holman, Margo Rose, Eloise Johnson, Merrill Lambright, ' Mary Ellen Anderson, and Deana 1 Clements were the chorus members who began the program about the history of our area. A square dance by a group of Junior High students Jackie Nelson, Nel-son, Brent Skidmore, Blaine Turner, Tur-ner, Susan Anderson, Nancy Ashby, Mary Ann Wishman, Betty Rae Wright, Connie Lovell. Gary Pace, Rex Finlinson, Myrna Clements, Carol Lyman, Ricky Simpson, Du-ane Du-ane Bishop, Kenny Talbot, and Bruce Stephenson was next on the assembly. The rest of the presen tation went as follows: a Charleston Charle-ston number "Ain't She Sweet" by Pattl Robison, Laura Moody. Kara-lee Kara-lee Owens, Judy Kaye Owens, Lorraine Lor-raine Johnson, and Kerry Allen, a vocal solo by Eddie Morris "Swa-nee", "Swa-nee", a tribute to the boys from Delta who died in World War II, by Mrs. Adrian Hansen, a medley of songs well known during the war years, by Virginia Done. j All the cheerleaders through the years were represented by Ann Kelly Cropper, Lorene Black Smith, and Darlene Fullmer Bliss as they led the studentbody in a cheer. A combo consisting of Lynn Finlinson. Finlin-son. Jack Bishop, Gill Dutson and McKay Church, played several numbers. Then came the moment everyone every-one was waiting for. Kathy Johnson John-son the Homecoming Queen of last year, crowned Kathy Thompson the new Queen. Mr. LaVoy Tolbert sang "Sweetheart of Delta High." To complete the assembly Joan-Bishop, Joan-Bishop, Annette Moody, and Vir-j ginia Done sang the theme song "Remember When." i Eloise Johnson D. H. HUSSEL FINLINSON TTEEIEM oi the Week Russel Finlinson, son of William and Rosebelle Finlinson of Leamington, Leam-ington, is the teen this week. He is the third in a family of two girls and four boys. . Russel enjoys most sports, but his favorite is "seeing a buck." He enjoys tennis, too, and plans to play in the tennis league at the school next spring. He also enjoys leather work and displays this by some of the beautiful articles he ' has made. Russel is a' member of the football foot-ball team and was on the Championship Champ-ionship Football team last year. During h'.s Sophomore year he participated par-ticipated in Wrertling. Besides, he took part in the School Play. His class schedule includes: Trigonometry, Trig-onometry, Physics, Sociology, Chemistry Che-mistry 11, English 12, Post Graduate Grad-uate Seminary, and Athletics. Russel is one of the outstanding students in the school scholastical-ly. scholastical-ly. He was In the top ten of his class in Junior High and has carried car-ried an "A" average through High School. No problem disturbs him and it seems as if he has little trouble assimilating knowledge. But careful observation reveals that Russel knows how to make time count: he is a good listener and has acquired the art of study. Russel has a winsome smile that gains him many friends. He is serious minded on important deci sions and is indeed a dependable upright youth with worthy aspirationsand aspira-tionsand a sense of humor. Russel states, "Principal Bennett and the other members of the faculty fa-culty have always been most kind and polite to me. They have always greeted me with a warm and pleasant plea-sant smile and I sincerely wish to thank them for their courteousness. In my opinion, we have one of the best administrations that can be found in the state, to guide and direct our school." Russel is planning to attend college col-lege after graduation. He suggests as a probable field Electrical Engineering Engi-neering or Business. We wish him much success in his endeavors throughout the future.

Steve Morrison A Tribute to An Alumna We would like to herald the efforts ef-forts of Mrs. Patsy Pratt McCorm-ick McCorm-ick in connection with the Homecoming Home-coming assembly. The time and effort ef-fort she put into the program is greatly appreciated. Mrs. McCorm ick wrote the script and helped di rect the program. The stage was aptly decorated by Patsy's capable hands; she also helped with the choreography and presentation of one of the dances; she composed the words of the introductory chor- us medley. We appreciate the time and ef - fort she gave. Her many talents certainly helped to make the as- semhlv the wonderful success that it turned out to be. Eloise Johnson " Miss Ruth Hansen: Monday Oct. 15, was a lucky day for Miss Ruth Hansen as she entered enter-ed the Holy Cross Hospital to regain re-gain her hearing. Miss Hansen has been having trouble hearing and has had to wear a hearing aid. This hearing deficiency is due to the small bones in the ear becoming immobilized. The operation a recent re-cent development rectifies the immobility. im-mobility. The operation was a tedious one for Miss Hansen as she lay on the operating table an hour and a half. She was not allowed to turn her head or move her body during this time. As the doctor began the operation op-eration she remarked, "It feels like a jet engine in my head." Miss Hansen spent three days in the hospital and walked out with what seemed like a new pair of ears. Now as Miss Hansen resumes her position as Librarian she Is be wild-ered wild-ered by the many noises around her. She said, "Everything is very noisy at the present time; furthermore further-more I didn't know so many trains went through Delta." She further added, "Everytime I turned on the radio on my trip home from the hospital, the tires of the car drowned drown-ed out the voice." nuaDiLnD Fashion leaders buy the lark for its style, beauty and distinctive design. ladies buy the lark for its luxurious standard equipment Smart people everywhere buy the lark because all of the above adds up to value. From th Advanced Thinking of VAX'S MOTOIt & SUPPLY MAIX STREET, DELTA, Cooks Make Way The walls of the lunch room no longer ring only at noon. Insuf- flcient facilities require that the lunch roombe used for study also. A Junior' High chorus class of seventy students is held there seventh sev-enth period. Of course, this has its backs; this makes sitting extremely extreme-ly tiring. A class of bookkeeping is taught there first period. The number here is thirty four. There are disadvan vages wun ms wo. in trying i give instruction, one blackboard is definitely a disadvantage. Again acoustics enter in; it is hard to be heard unless all the students are rather close. Because adding machines ma-chines are naturally needed, this necessitates carrying them out and back. Although the cooks try to cooperate, it is obvious that the noise would also be distracting both for the cooks and fo rthe students stu-dents and teachers. This makes a difficult arrangement, arrange-ment, but we are getting along quite well so far and trying to make the best of it. Eloise Johnson Our Faculty Mr. Gary Niederhauser, a native of Logan, teaches the Church History His-tory students, and one Book of Mormon class.

A Tribute to Delta A serious note on Homecoming: This is an orig'nal poem presented on the assembly. A TRIBUTE TO DELTA HIGH WAR DEAD A Tribute To Delta High War Dead Mrs. Adrian Hansen There's a plaque out in our hallway, With many names thereon: Each name recalls a member of Delta High now gone. Memory recalls their faces When to these rooms they came, Full of life and vigor; No thought had they of fame. I Their fun was just as full as yours; ' ti ; J 1 .. Their voices, loud and clear, The ballgames, just as dear to them; They led them cheer on cheer. Some tried the Teacher's patience; Some were the fair haired boys; Some had all the answers, Their parents' pride and joys. The world was in a turmoil-The turmoil-The country called for men; From homes and schools and workshops They answered "Here" and then-One then-One day there came that message; How well we knew that theme: A loved one gone forever; (It must be an awful dream) VE ENDORSE . . . James IP. We believe that it was not necessary to bring in a resident of another judicial district as judge of the Fifth District. The Constitution of Utah provides that a District Judge shall reside in the district for which he is elected or appointed and that selection of judges shall be based solely upon consideration of fitness for office, without regard for partisan political consideration. We believe that the Constitution should have been complied with both in letter and in spirit. JAMES P. McCUNE is an attorney of highest integrity, in-tegrity, with many years of experience in public affairs. He was oe of three caapble and qualified attorneys of the Fifth District recommended by the District Bar Association for appointment as District Judge. In spite of this recommendation an attorney from another district received the appointment. We believe that the citizens of the Fifth District should choose as their judge a resident of the district. Our acquaintance with JAMES P. McCUNE convinces con-vinces us that he is well qualified by training, experience, experi-ence, and character for the office of District Judge, and that if elected he will be a capable, courageous, impartial and just judge.

Assembly at U. ofU., April 19-20 With growing tensions in every part of the world, the ninth annual High School Model United Nations Assembly scheduled for the Uni-vers Uni-vers ty of Utah campus on Friday and Saturday, April 19 and 20, 1963, takes on an unprecedented sense of urgency for the high schools of Utah. Delta High School of Delta has been invited to represent the country coun-try of Iran according to announcement announce-ment made by Grant R. Holt, Acting Act-ing Dean of the Extens on Division today, on behalf of the Assembly Steering Committee. Mr. James Porter Por-ter will be the advisor to the Delta High School delegation. Some seventy high schools have received notifications to represent the 108 nations in the international organization, Dean Holt said. The University is also alerting the Embassies Em-bassies and Delegations of the various var-ious United Nations members in New York and Washington to the 1963 Utah Model Assembly and asking their cooperation in answering answer-ing requests for background information infor-mation that will be coming to them from Utah high school students. According to information received at the University, many high schools in Utah sponsored special United Nations Day ceremonies on October 24 during that week as part of their educational program in international understanding, he added. SHOP AT HOME SHOP THE ADVERTISERS WITH High War Dead... A plane had crashed in training; A submarine lost at sea; A beach-head on a foreign isle (It all comes back to me) A casualty in battle, With foreign sounding name; Another on a battleship. (The horror all the same) How could the world go on With these our boys now dead; How many broken hearts And many a low bowed head. Oh, yes, we have our cold war That goes on day to day. But papers feature ballgames And trouble far away. We do not look for death lists With heavy sinking heart, And seeing names familiar i ii':. u i 1 . . .1 .J With sad and sudden start. We all have shared the freedom They saved and still hold dear. We surely owe them reverence And sometimes feel them near. They, too, were part of Delta High; Homecoming for them must be A grander, more glorious one in a future eternity. May we today remember The debt we can ne'er epay. Just pause in solemn" memory A moment this happy day. And resolve here now together , We too will do our part ' To keep the gifts they left us Safe in a worthy heart. McCoime FOR |
