JUNIOR HIGH STUDENTS COME
TO SCHOOL SaTURD»AY FOR TESTS
4A Milne girl comes panting up to
the school steps at eight otclock on
Saturday, May 5. She rushes up to
room $1 in Richardson Hall and finds
all the desks occupied. Roll is already
taken cand she and several late arrivals
are hurried to a nearby room where
they sink down in the offered seats
and take tests. The room grows hotter
and our friend, an eighth grader, is
very much annoyed by the seventh
graders who are having a recess.
At last her turn for recess comes,
and after a hasty lunch, during which
she spills a bottle of milk, she runs
out of doors with her friends to play
a game of Russian ball. Just as her
turn comes, the bell rings and she re-
enters the roasting room to see a new
pile of testse Thenk gcodness one had
to take plactiment’ tests only once.2

JUNIOR HIGH B.OEBALL
We believe that junior high boys
should be more active in sports, For
instance, they should have a baseball
team. Many boys who want to play on
such & team find it impossible be-
C.use not enough boys come out for
practice. Instead of complaining that
the girls have u gre.ter w.risty of
sports, why don't the boys take adven=
tege of the sports that they do have.
Besides being of benefit to the he.1th
of the boys, baseb:.11 giumes would helO
the social life of Milne. ‘The boys
m.de a good record with their bas-
ketball team. Why cintt they do cs
well with 4 beseball team?

OUR POINT SYST RM
Many Milne high stutents feel
that under the present peint system
cert.in people get more points than
they deserve. In many ofg. nizations,
students on committees dp more work
than the officers and do not get
credit. Very often the head of a
group gets credit points! for the po-
sition only and not fer the work that
he does, We would sug.est thet a num
ber of points given to the le.ding
officers of org: nizetiongs shculd be
lowered and that chairmen of committees
be given credit points.
BOOK REPORT

heting boys in a little college "prep"
school in England. They do every-
thing they can think of to "drow"
