Show Millard County Chronicle Deadline- (Continued from front page) From the first grades, when a ch Id learns to read, he could learn about our country as easily as he could learn to read "See Sally", See Sally Jump", "See Spot", See Spot Run", etc. This is a golden opportunity to teach more about our country that education is miss- inc. High schools with one foreign language courses should Insist on two years or drop the one year courses. Dr. James Conant, educator-statesman, has stated that one year foreign language has little real value, A cursory check of friends who have had only one year of foreign language, has pointed out that Dr. Conant's statement state-ment is true. Perhaps money and t me spent on such practices could be better used in vocational education. edu-cation. In many sections of the country, jobs are begging for skilled workers work-ers and men are begging for work, (and the welfare rolls swell). Pub lie schools are, the only institution that can bring "the two together if education is geared to today. Federal Fed-eral laws governing allotments to states for vocational education must be updated to meet today's needs. The federal law is 45 years old and is geared to the needs of Woodrow Wilson's day. For instance, in-stance, about one third of all a-vailable a-vailable vocational education funds go to training farmers, although farmers now const.tute but six per cent of the labor force. Education must be tailored to fit the students need for his life's work. If we, the public, provide more and better educational facilities and teaching tools, of which the teacher is the most expensive, then we, the public, can demand and get a richer and fuller educational system one that w.ll develop every ev-ery young American to his maximum maxi-mum capacity. Because I fully believe that the good life stems from the good educational edu-cational system I'm going to pledge myself to helping CAPS attain at-tain its goals. We probably will not reach them this year but goals never hurt anyone! Or so Papa Pa-pa Pyland used to tell me. Even with picking cotton I had a goal. I wanted to weigh in more pounds each day than I had the day before! be-fore! And more often than not, I succeeded, even when it meant going go-ing to the field earl.er and staying later. i Hereafter, my remarks regarding education will not be prefaced with "Well, I may be wrong" but "Show me where I'm wrong". CHRONICLE AND HINCKLEY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL: We were pleased and surprised to be stopped the other day and told by a Hinckley Elementary school teacher that her class used the series of "See Utah", (published (publish-ed quite regularly In our favorite weekly) in its studies. Mrs. Spend-love Spend-love stated that several members had the complete series made up into a serapbook for reference use. We've enjoyed the series ourselves and have received letters and notes, calls, etc. indicating that we aren't the only ones who enjoy the articles, and we're happy that we have some quite young readers who enjoy them, also. EQUITABLE: According to Mr. Webster the word "equitable" means fair and equal. Whether the word is used in referring to rights, taxes, or be nefits paid for by taxes the word means the same. Equitable tax? Is there such a tax? Or did our good friend hit it on the head when he said "There is no such thing as an equitable tax, it's only equitable in the sense that it doesn't hit you or your field"? THANKS: 1 We've been having all kinds of difficulty at the Chronicle keeping warm. Not only have we hauled out our long-handles in an effort to beat old man winter but what's been worse, the ink gets cold and we can't always get the presses to roll properly. Putting our heads together, to-gether, we decided to install a coal heater to help the oil furnace keep the temperature above a cool 63 degrees. Inquiring around we were unable to find what we needed at the local stores. Mr. Golden Cluff, Sr. offered to let us take a stove of his that he had stored in his garage, ga-rage, although he said it was probably prob-ably too small for what we needed. Happened to run into our friend, D.ck Morrison, and explained our dilemma. Wonder of wonders. He had just what we needed stored wuv ill uugaiviiic. OLCVC, hauled it in in his truck, D.ck helped help-ed us (or maybe we helped Dick) install the stove, built a fire in it and we're so comfortable now that we can hardly stand it! Called a "Frost Killer", the stove stands about five feet high and throws out an abundance of heat. Our inside thermometer now registers regis-ters at 72 degrees with little effort on the part of the furnace! Our sincere thanks, Mr. Morrison and: Steve. 1963 LEGISLATURE We noticed in Tuesday's Tribune that our Senator, Thorpe Wadd.ng-ham Wadd.ng-ham is on the Senate and joint rules committee. Sen. Waddingham retiring Senate President, is one Df three members. The other members ' are Sen. Orvil Hafen (R-St. George) j and Sen. Kleon Kerr (R-Tremon-1 ton). We certainly wish our sen-' ator and representat.ve, LaMar1 Monroe, the best. There is little doubt but what they are in for an interesting session. In any case, copy from each of them should be appearing at any time. MENTAL HEALTH: Our series of Mental Health articles arti-cles begin this week. We hope that you readers will read them and let us know your reaction. Thursday, January 17, 1963, D.U.S. TTXEEEW oi the Week DEAN LOSEE This week's feen is Dean Losee, ;on of Glen and Ruth Losee of Su-garville. Su-garville. He has two older brothers and three younger sisters. Dean's class schedule includes American Problems, Algebra I, Seminary, Se-minary, Art, Speech, Chemistry I, and Athletics. His hobbies are stamp collecting and Wrestling. We can see results of his interest in wrestling as he has lettered his Sophomore and Jun or years, and is doing very well again this year. He is also one of the Captains of the Wrestling Team. During the summer he attended a clin.c, for wrestling and basketball, given by Myron Roderick an Olympic Wrestler and Coach Adolph Rupp of Kentucky. During the summer Dean works with his father on the farm. This Is possibly where he acquired some of his strength for wrestling. Dean has a fine attitude toward life, and a reserved personality that grows on a person as one becomes be-comes acquainted with him. He is a good student and a deep thinker as he has proved by his work in Speech class. He is also an able pantomimist. Of D. H. S. he says: "I feel it is a great privilege to attend Delta High School and to be associated with the faculty and studentbody here. "The achievements and success we have in athletics and other school functions has made our school one of the best and has won the respect of many other schools." In answer to the question "Why don't I know you tetter so that I could say more about you?" Dean answered, "Oh I'm just an unimportant unim-portant Delta High student." (And not one speck of resentment in his tone). Those words accompanied with a genial smile said much: here is a young man with poise and a quick wit (for the question addressed ad-dressed to him was a startling one). Modesty, amiability, and sincerity are also in evidence. Hats off to you, Dean; you are one of those we are mighty proud to have as a Student of DHS. We now know you better and wish you success the rest of your Senior year and in college.

This was the first league-season game Delta Del-ta has played on their own floor this year. Once again, as has been the pattern pat-tern of many previous games, the Rabbit "full court press" disturbed greatly the Tigers from Milford. During the- first quarter Milford took a slight lead over Delia, but .heir lead came to an abrupt end jarly in the second quarter. The intention of the Tigers was to hold down Doug Church, who proved a smarting thorn in their paw. Everytime the Tigers would maneuver, it seemed as if Doug .vas mere lirst. Another reason tor trying to hold Doug down was his Janiel-Boone marksmanship which jrought h m a total of 18 points. barbarians Beat Braves, 65 to 0 Following their usual pattern of procedure the D. H. S. Wrestlers pulled another win out of their hats and defeated Cedar City by winning all matches. The individual results below all have winners capitalized. DELTA CEDAR SCORE OVERSON Smith 6-2 V.

Tuesday morning students of Delta High were favored with one of the finer entertainments they will see this year. D xie Jr. College presented their traveling assembly 'So This Is America!

Some of the matches above were won in a very short time, too, as exampled by Jerry Callister, who won his in 1 min. 12 sec, and Ron Baker, who pinned his man in 58 seconds. If Delta's wrestlers keep going like this, and I feel sure they will, nothing will be able to stop them till they've hit the top. Steve Morrison there are 39 girls in the Pep Club, in this novelty routine not one mistake was evident. Each girl moved in perfect unison with her partner and the steps proceeded without a flaw. Surely this act was appreciated by all, and each person present showed his adm nation as a big hand was given the girls. Congrat- ulation, Pep Club and Mrs. McCall (adviser), you represent Delta High School well! Patsy Ekker important music is to the Ameri-jan Ameri-jan people. The American mother-in-law, the boy next door, and the typical babys tter are often topics of humor in American conversation. The pains an average babysitter goes through was demonstrated in pantomime. America has developed a new .dea in piay production, sitting sit-ting on high stools and reading irom their script. Oral Readers did one such production as they gave as Mark Twain's version of "The O ary of Adam and Eve." The theater the-ater and musical shows are also important in the American way of life. From one of the more recent hits, West Side Story, a duet sang "Tonight".

A lengthy discussion was held on beer 1. censes for the three taverns ta-verns and two grocery stores now selling beer.

Taverns pay city license fees on juke boxes, bowling games, pool tables, dance floors and set-up per-m.ts, per-m.ts, plus the beer license. Grocery-men Grocery-men pay on gross sales, plus the beer license. Mayor Church recounted recount-ed a recent conversation with one tavern owner who had to remove a party from his premises for disorderly dis-orderly conduct. The party removed re-moved had purchased beer at one of the local grocery stores, consumed con-sumed part of it before entering the premises, consumed the rest while in the tavern and while doing do-ing so became disorderly. Concenus of opinion is that the licenses permitting per-mitting the sale of beer should be equalized although a decision was tabled until a meeting could be arranged with all interested persons per-sons present. Application from Frank Crane for a junk yard permit was heard. Permit was granted but the new bus ness must conform to the building code.

Everyone was certainly cert-ainly putting forth his best at yelling the loudest. Yes, it was really good while the Milford T ger was carried on a stretcher to the stage. The Tiger broke loose and while he was being hunted down the cheering of the spirited students, no doubt, reached as far as Milford. Soon the Tiger was cornered Of the Principal , ir jlA I Iff !TA Will NIC VllllC Ebb called in at the office today. He was very critical about our school. It seems all plants and ani- mals in the B ology department died during the Christmas holidays, and he wanted to know why. I suppose our only explanation could be that we let the building get too cold and almost everything froze. Zt does seem a p.ty that all of these fine things that Ebb and-many and-many others were so much interested inter-ested in should be lost, but our building is quite hard to heat because be-cause of openings around the windows win-dows and then the furnace does not function properly all of the time. Mrs. Clayton's room gets pretty cold at times, it being on the upper north side of our building. Lately we have had a real problem With our furnace. Mr. Lovell and Mr. Twitchell have worked all through the night several times to keep it going so that we could have school the next day. Mr. Anderson, our district maintenance man, lives in Fillmore and we have had to call him several times and have him come 40 miles to help us keep warm. Mr. Fmllnson says he thinks he won't buy any more special plants and animals until we get our new building??????

When we started to select ma-ter.al ma-ter.al for Mnemosyne, we were confronted with a problem: Last year's staff and this year's read over 300 selections screened lroia more than 3000 English themes checked in. We found that after selecting suitable magazine material, ma-terial, we had almost tw.ee many essays, poems, and stories as we could print. We tried to choose material that was outstanding outstand-ing yet keep as many students represented as poss.ble. Many students stu-dents had three and some as many as six excellent selections which could have been printed. Beclauye of shortage of money, we were limited to 56 pages; so we had to cut out many good writings. We only wish that we could afford to print all the material. We feel that Mnemosyne is on3 of the best magazines in Utah and urge you to call the High School or one of the students mentioned in last week's Chronicle to order one.
