The Rabbits played a tremendous tre-mendous game, having the lead from the first few minutes of play. Leading off the game, Delta jumped jump-ed to 25-9 point lead. This was especially accompolished by good hustle and shooting by Dean Moody Moo-dy and Dug Bailey. The half ended with Delta having about a ten-point ten-point lead. At the beginning of the third quarter Milford came back to make the game a real barn-burner. But the Rabbits kept their poise thru out the rest of the game and won by six points. We saw that Dale Jensen wis playing and we hope he can get back into the swing of things. We were glad to have the opportunity to show Milford how much we appreciate ap-preciate Coach Myers for his able coaching of a winning team.

DELTA, From the Kails of D.H.S.- Principal Fowles The State of Utah requires Delta Del-ta High School to hold 180 days of school each year. The DHS has an attendance pO'tey which states, "When a student has been absent twenty days he will not receive full credit for his classes unless some make-up work is done." ' The renson for this policy is to encourage a student to be in attendance atten-dance which should enible him to learn the subject matter in his scheduled classes. j We feel that -the most inportant place for a student to be between the hours of 8:30 and 3:30 is in the classroom. This is not to imply that if a student is ill he is not to stay home, but we also feel that occasionally students are kept out of schooi unnecessarily. In order for 'a student to reach his full potential, poten-tial, it is vital that he attend l.school regularly. Last month our attendance dropped drop-ped to 94 which is rather low. compared to the good attendance wo normally have. In light of this fact we would ask you to help your child prepare himself for college or whatever occupation he plans to enter by encouraging him to be in school as much as possible.
