Show Millard County Chronicle From the Office Of the Principal ' In faculty meeting September 29, the faculty of Delta High School approved the following policies concerning attendance for 1964-65. We would ask that parents study these and help students to conform. School time is valuable time ana we need to make use of it. The Following is Proposed At tendance Policy for Delta High School 1964-65: It is not the intention nor the desire of school authorities to force students into school when they are ill. To do so would be a detriment to both the school and the students involved. However, unnecessary ab sence limits the student's efficiency and cuts the amount of revenue received from the state for the operation op-eration of the schools without a corresponding cut in the cost of operation. Absences will be considered as excused or unexcused as follows: 1. Excused absences will consist of : a. Illness. When students miss school because of illness they . will be required to present a ; written statement from the parent or guardian or from the family physician to the effect that they were ill and . remained at home for treatment. treat-ment. b. Parent's request that the student stu-dent stay at home to work. i When it is necessary to have students remain at home to work, the parents must obtain permission before the absence occurs. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL CAUSE THE ABSENCE TO BE MARKED AS UNEX-CUSED. UNEX-CUSED. c. Doctor's or Dentist's appoint J.

Burton believes: "Success in Congress depends on background, experience, legislative knowhow together with a lot of hard work". Burton's success in Congress in securing passage of two major bills, the Dixie Project and the Canyonlands National Park are ample evidence that he practices what he preaches. Burton has ALWAYS put the best interests of Utah FIRST and partisan considerations LAST. His performance has caused such men as Democratic Secretary of Interior, Stewart Udali, the man directly responsible to the President for the direction and supervision of all activities in the Department of Interior to bear testimony to Burton's effectiveness. He said, . ". . . IT IS NOT OFTEN THAT A FRESHMAN CONGRESSMAN CONG-RESSMAN FROM A SMALL STA TE SUCCEEDS IN GETTING GET-TING SUCH LEGISLATION AS CANYONLANDS AND THE DIXIE PROJECT PASSED IN HIS FIRST TERM . . .

Students should avoid making these appointments during school hours whenever possible. If the appointment must be made during school hours students must call at the office in advance and obtain ob-tain a slip to be signed by the doctor when the appointment appoint-ment is kept, d. Absences in connection with other school work. These absences ab-sences must be approved in advance. IMPORTANT: The above absences ab-sences will be considered excused excus-ed only after students have properly pro-perly completed all assignments missed in connection with the absence. When the work has not been made up to the satisfaction of the teachers concerned, the absence will be considered as unexcused. Upon returning to school students will be allowed two days for each day's absence in which to make up the work whiph has been missed. Unexcused absences w.'ll include any not listed above and will invoke the following penalties: a. Grades will be cut 2 for each absence. This will apply only to the class (es) from . which the student was absent. b. Students who willfully sluff from classes may be expelled from school upon the action of the attendance and scholarship schol-arship committee. Students who have been expelled will be readmitted only after the proper arrangements have been made by their parents. But 10 of grades will be cut for each class missed. TARDINESS: Students are required re-quired to be to class on time. Three tardy marks will affect a student's grade the same as one unexcused absence. m U W Mr. Christensen . . .

From the recreation hall of the Stake House scattered con versation and. laughter could be heard. The Student Council was sponsoring a dance. Student Council members were the first to arrive. About half an hour later the studentbody arrived With a little coaxing they moved from the door to the recreation hall floor and began to dance. Of course the dancing was mainly surfin' and doing the pony. Many students were learning to surf for the first time. Others were making up new versions of differ ent dances, and others were danc ing without partners. Everyone seemed to be having a good time. At 10:30 p.m. the recreation hall was sail. Everyone had disappear ed; where abouts, unknown. CHERIE WALKER 1 .11. A. News The Delta F. H. A. chapter offi cers President, Lorraine Johnson; Secretary, Jane Beckwith; Vice President, Lynda Johnson; Historian, Histor-ian, Sandra Pace; Reporter, Kathy Wright; and advisor, Mrs. Pat John son joined eight other chapters in a regional F. H. A. convention held m Milford Saturday, October 3. The theme this year is "Educa tion a continuous process." The D.H. Nocturne In E ("Ee-e-e-e!" sharp) The latest style in pep club uniforms uni-forms is irrigation boots, full red jump suits and topped off with the natural look in the hair department. depart-ment. This lates style was set by the Senior members of the Pep Club for the newest members in their initiation day last Thursday. Along with the latest style went a certain rule that had to be carried car-ried out exactly. The rule was that any new member who was caught talking to the opposite sex was plastered with a large green "D". It was the only day of the year that the boys paid any attention to the girls, and the girls couldn't do anything about it without getting labeled. Friday night after the dance, the Pep Club held a slumber party in the gym. 2t was a contest on who could surf the longest, stay up the latest, and stay calm with the gym shifting shift-ing gears every few minutes. All this, plus the fact that the snake from' the biology lab was loose, made for a very enjoyable evening. The surfin' stopped around 2:00 a.m.: and the talk continued until 5:00 a.m., along with water fights and putting pine-nut shells in the bedding. Of course, the eating continued con-tinued all night. . The last persons finally conked out around five, and reveille was sounded by the Beach Boys with "Catch a Wave" at seven a.m. The next record was "Bread and Butter" which gave the girls the idea to go and eat the burnt offerings, otherwise known as breakfast. The menu consisted of anemic hot-cakes, unsweetened orange juice, and burnt bacon. ' After cleaning the gym, all girls wete aimed in the direction of home where food and a nice soft bed were waiting. JANICE BISHOP theme of the convention held October Oc-tober 3, was "Marriage calls for preparation." The guest speaker was Dr.. McRay Cloward of the College Col-lege of Southern Utah Faculty. The second session was high-lighted by a short-but-to-lhe-point panel discussion dis-cussion on questions on marriage sent in by each group. It was a worthwhile trip, and we gained some good ideas to present to our local F. H. A. chapter. KATHY WRIGHT CHORUS Auditions were held Tuesday, October 6.

TTEEEEKU ; oi the Week KENT TURNER Kent Turner, a noticeable figure on the football field, plays quarter back for the varsity football team. He fills this position well with his running and passing ability. As co-captain co-captain of the football team he keeps fellow players working hard. Kent's athletic ability is not confined con-fined to football alone. He is a member of the basketball and the baseball teams. On the baseball team he plays second base even though he can play almost any position. Water skiing is another of his favorite sports. Some of his hobbies, besides sports, are dancing and working on the farm for his father. Surfin' is the dance he likes and he is good at it. If you've ever seen anyone surf you'll know this takes stamina, a quality of an athlete. School work is prominent in everyday ev-eryday life. Kent has his share, as his class schedule includes trigonometry, trigo-nometry, English, physics, seminary, semin-ary, American Problems, shop, and a'.hletics. Kent says he likes his math classes best. On the side line he is a popular member of his class and has held the offices of Junior Prom chairman chair-man and now Senior class president. presi-dent. Kent plans to major in engineering, engineer-ing, but as yet he has not decided which college he will attend. When he is through college he says that he would like to work in the field of mechanical or architectural engineering. engi-neering. Kent is the son of Fred and E-laine E-laine Turner of Sutherland. Two older sisters, two older brothers, one younger sister, and two younger young-er brothers make up the rest of he Turner family. ' . Those who know Kent are aware of his quickness of movement, his abrupt, to-the-point comments, and his self-confidence, backed by a ready smile. These qualities instil in others a confidence in Kent's leadership. This confidence in Kent demands of him responsibility and reliability. Although the road to success is a hard one, Kent will make his way toward the top with the use of his talents.
