Show School Notes (Clyde Countryman.) Well, I guess that it is my turn to bawl out the Salt Lake Popgun- In the first place, when the writer started start-ed to write these articles, there was no one trying to beat me to the news. Then the Popgun's Irishman came out from Suit, Lake and tried to swipe my news service. I never made any complaints, com-plaints, there was no complaint until that l.Mlck" started in to add to his Bingham news with notes that were padded; last week under the heading of Bingham School Notes, we read a two-Inch note about the Domestic Science department being equipped "with twenty-two electric hot plates and two nlectrlc ovens to replace a big new range that had been installed in the school." By this crltlolam we do not mean to detract any of the honor from Mr. Quinn of getting the board to buy this apparatus, but ,we feel that the people of Bingham should have the new news, when it is news, and that the new news should be the truth. The hot plates and the electric ovens that are to be Installed are not yet Installed. We find this out by talking with the Domestic Science teacher and with the Utah Power & Light Co. They say that the hotplates and the oven have not even arrived in town yet. This is the sort of news that the iPopgun is giving you, news that is too new or too old. The school notes that are written in The Press'Bulletln are fresh from the High School building ' and are absolutely abso-lutely the truth. The Popgun's mlck goes to the school house, writes a few notes, and then goes into Salt (Lake and writes them up. using his imagination imag-ination more than his notes. Thusly you get "GASSED." You don't get news. One of the first debates of the year occurred last week between two teams in the history class of 'Miss Gardiner's eighth grade. The question was, "Resolved, "Re-solved, that the surrender of Burgoyne was of more importance to the revolution revolu-tion than the surrender of Cornwallis." The affirmative team won the debate by a unanimous decision of the judges. The negative team members are as follows: Clara Zlon, iMelba Hates and Sterling Thomas. The affirmative team are Fae Cleys, Tory Tobiason and iMaxlne Kelly. (Last week Mlas Margaret Tennant returned to school after having been in Coalville. Utah, for the past three weeks. Miss Tennant went to Coalville Coal-ville to go to school, but finding that she could not take the same course that she had been taking, she decided to come back to iBingham. She is a member of the Senior class. The committee tfor the Junior Prom is sure getting busy. The committee is as follows: Alired (Anderson, chairman; chair-man; Fae Patten, Lillian Chlara, El- mer "VVhitely and Dewey :Miller. The ball will be given on 'March 22, the orchestra Is ready, and the invitations will be issued in the near future. |
