High School Notes
Miss McDonald, the assistant
librarian, is scheduled to be back
shortly. One of her family is
sick, necessitating her presence
at home. Miss McDonald has al
ways been a source of assurance
to the Freshman, helping them
considerably in their library
work.
According to Miss Carrigan,
“there is nothing new or excit
ing in the history department,
except for the fact that there are
many enrolled.”
The orchestra “is at it again.”
Not content to rest peacefully,
the orchestra, under the direction
of Frederick Harmon, is practic
ing almost daily in the auditor
ium before class sessions. Inci
dentally, the orchestra is the first
organization to start the ball
-rolling.
E., E. Hippensteel, Faculty Ad
visor of the Swimming Team,
states that at present there is no
activity for the swimmers. The
official swimming season at A. C.
rU is. commences immediately
after the football season.
The students will gradually be
placed in study rooms as the op
portunity permits. At the pres
ent time the auditorium is being
used for the purpose of studying.
Due to the fact that the audi
torium is filled during the school
hours, it is practically certain
that there will be no chorus prac
tice for a while yet. The chorus
periods mean the loss of one of
the subjects during the week and
many of the “Sophs” and upper
classmen will miss the chorus
practice, since it is not necessary
to prepare for the subject. How
ever, “Freshies” are unconscious
of this fact.
The O. W. L. Society, which
is open to girls interested in
botany of the upper classes, is
progressing rapidly. The first
meeting of this organization was
held on Friday last. Miss Hass
is the Faculty Advisor.
