Show I Something To Think About Tlu Team Needs Your Sup'port by Nila Brown it for has taken so have we since that granted many lettermen back from last Everyone take state again this year without trying or having any support from the student us body. into ciil never take nent. Our thinking this year", we will the team and every-conceited team will ere. The teams with compete are aware of the fact that we have so many lettermen back and are going to do everything in their power to keep us out of the tournament. Only by fighting will our team ever make it. Without the student bodys support the team will never fell like fighting. Last year the students supported the team fairly well, and we went to state. This year we will not take the Alpine district without every students backing. We do not want our dream of getting out of school to see our team play in the state tournament, and see them come back with another gold basketball: not to come true. So come on out to the games. You will enjoy seeing the team fight their way to the top again as only they know how. If we support the team they will do their best to take us to state, but if we dont, we can expect to go to school while the tournament is taking place in Salt Lake. a ; i Slu m Irlerv. Slumber Party 'Twas the night before Saturday, And all through V h i k b. , Not a creature was sleeping, Especially not I! The pillows and blankets Were spread on the floor, In hopes that theyd be used Kre the night was oer. The music was playing, Miss W ilson was cooking, Mrs. Caine was making history, Mrs. Tee was just looking. pair of pajamas Were tossed through the air, M iss Gilbert was in em, Hut she didnt care. A The prize for the loudest, Was Joana Hobbs lot, She looked like ti fire engine, (Only not quite as hot!) Laurel Baker was rewarded, For pajamas most slept-in- . Hut, they looked like something A tiger was kept in. Most glamorous reward, Gladys Nixon received, Which her red silk pajamas, Farm'd well, Ie believe. Jo Price won for most Little girlish in town, Wth her elephant, bear, duck, And blue striped night gown. The chili, hot chocolate, And crackers were eaten With unladylike appetites, Which couldnt be beaten. LETTERS TO SANTA Joyce Walker and cat Didn't think it so funny.

(Dec. wreaths, the mistletoe, the pres- ents, all the wonderful things that make up our Christmas celebration, are essentially American and a part of our home life. When Hitler took up his reign in Europe, Christmas was no longer a holiday, and Christ was a soft sissy, to be scorned. It gets monotonous to be told how lucky we are, over and over again, and too often, we become immune to the fact. Especially at Christmas time though, we should realize that we really do live in a and make the Promised Land, best of it. May you all have a very Merry Christmas, and an exceedingly Happv New Year.

In Christmas Eve the snow fell fast and furiously, in the pretty town of Provo. And rain poured cats and dogs. It was really a sight that will long be remembered in the hearts of all those unlucky enough to survive it. Latching on to the next car we bizzed along very happily. After going several blocks, me and my buddy decided to let go and start thr long trudge home. When to our horror we found we could not let go. Our hands refused to leave the bumper of that old beat up model T. We were frozen fast. What do we do? he cried in sorrow Summer wil be here in five months and well melt off. I hopefully replied. We rode miles in silence. What a way to spend Christmas Eve, he muttered sadly. We seemed to be floating along at a terrific speed. When suddenly the snow became very warm and we realized we were not moving any more. Our modle T had arrived home at last. We carefully straightened our aching legs so as to keep them from breaking off. The lights were dazzling as we peeked into a big window which happened to be near. Lets go in and warm up, my no ones companion remarked, around. We got 'in .alright and what a place. Toys of every description littered up the joint. Not that my friend was nosy or anything but he just happened to see a book with interesting writing in it which caught his fancy. And after picking at the lock ten minutes, putting a stick of dynamite under the drawer, he finally sawed off the three walls around it. He then pulled out a tiny notebook, and read: Private Property of Santa Claus. North Pole. Please Keep Out. We both felt right at home to open and start reading. It was a list of behavior of every person in the world. It was amazing how accurate this list could be. Of course we cant go into detail about the little book, but here is an idea of what it said. Norman Arbon, needs ear muffs now he cut off all head covering. Been better than usual. Janitor; Albert Christensen Messengers; Scott Thomas, Franklin Jenkins B.

A silhouette hung on the stage added much to the atmosphere. Thanks loads to Jack Bickmore and his committee. cot-to- STAFF BOX Faculty Advisor ...
