II. si News BIRDIE LOU HILTON BHS - HHS TIE UP SCORE . . . Both HHS and BHS succeeded in pushing across a single touch down to put the score on ice and tie up the game in an action-packe- d battle fought on the HHS field, Sept. 29. The Beaver score came early in the first quarter when they reach-ed pay dirt in a surprize attack against the unwary Mustangs. This put the Hinckley squad on their toes and they succeeded in thwart-ing any further gains by the Bea-ver eleven through the remainder of the game. The Hinckley team had the crowd holding its breath when they suc-ceeded in running the ball to with-in a foot of the goal-lin- e during the second quarter. They lost the opportunity to score however when the race with time was lost and the half whistle blew. Third period play saw the Mus-tangs setting the stage for an-other big push. Arnold Peterson carried the ball across in an end run play to even the score 6 all. The attempt for the extra point was blocked. Both teams fought to a stand-still during the fourth period in the struggle to gain supremacy. Hinckley again drove back the Bea vers to within inches of the goal line but lost their chance to score when they were penalized. Beaver saged a" rally late in the last per-iod but were too eager to reach their goal for they received two seperate penalties for unnecess-ary roughness resulting in a 30 yard set back. Adding to the excitement was the peppy yelling led by the cheer-leaders of both squads and the clever pep stunt performed by the Maroon Key Club at the half. The Hinckley High Band also played several snappy numbers. MAROON KEY CLUB HOLDS INITIATION ON OCTOBER 2 Newly elected officers of the Maroon Key Club started out the year's activities by initiating the new members, consisting oi the Sophomore girls, into the club. The officers consist of Marlene Ekins, president; Kathryn Wilson, vice president; Helen Christensen, secretary, and Joan Davis, report-er. Initiation began on Monday when each Sophomore had to wear a white key around her neck. On Thursday the kep was painted Ma-roon as a sign she was fully initi-ated. During the week each girl had to perform some "Bad Deed". Some of those deeds were taking a cen-sus of all the goldfish in the town erasing all important material off blackboards and saying nursery rhymes whenever the teachers spoke to them. On Thursday the initiates were required to wear long legged warm up suits with a swimming suit ov-er them, and also carry a pillow on which to bow to the older mem bers. An assembly was held Thursday morning on which the Sophomore girls took part. The assembly was presented in the form of a tele-vision show, with regular acts, and commercials. The first feature was a beauty contest for the title of :.. Tlnrlies of 1950".

LOST... $16,000 In a recent report complied at the county school district office It was found that the Millard county schools lost nearly $16,000 last year because of students staying out of school. In this county last year there were 2512 students en-rolled in school. Of this number, 2332 students attended school every day. This means that every school day last year 180 students did not go to school. The amount of money the school district receives each year is de-termined largely by the average daily attendance (A D A) of its school children. For every 20 high school students in attendance on every school day during the year, the school receives $3,300. The same amount Is received for every 30 elementary school students. This means that for every day a high school students is absent, the schools lose 95 cents, and about 65 cents is lost when an elemen-tary students Is absent This seems like a trifling amount, but when many students are absent, the loss per day becomes alarming. In fact, we lost almost $93 per school day last year simply be-cause students did not go to school Each year, every school in the county is allocated a share of the school budget to use and operate on during the year. A certain of money is required to op-erate a school. If a surplus of mon-ey appears, it can be used to pur-chase supplies and equipment, de-pending upon the school needs. Just think how much better the schools we could have and bet-ter equipment in our schools with $16,000 more every year. Occasionally it is necessary for a child to stay out of school, either for work or because of illness. In such cases, the absence is legiti-mate. There are times when a stu-dent misses the bus either on purpose or or just has something else to do that day. Teachers and principals can-not do much about it if a student is absent from school. The res-ponsibility to see that children are in school rests in the parents. If your child is absent from school the loss is two-fol- first, your child loses what the school has to offer that day, and Becond, the school loses money. It is therefore of benefit to the community as a whole that parents and schools cooperate In encouraging maxi-mum attendance at school. The public defeats its own program if we deprive ourselves of the In-struction the scheols make avail-- 1 able to us. SUTHERLAND . . .
