Student Council has decided on semle
formal dress for the partys "I don't
know whether to wear my pink lace or

hoven’t "a thing’ to wear. Perhaps our
sgyle colums will help you figure out
yar problem of What To Wears

WHal GOOD ARE DESKS?
From the wey desks have been treate
ed in Milne clessrooms it would appear
as though they were large pieces of wood
to whittle on, Most of the desks are
marked up and sometime mey be refinished.
Lately, though, one person did more
than his share of whittling on a table
and it was up to him to refinish ite

WE THE STUDENTS
This-is-not—oa repetition to the __
program "We The Peoplo",~—heurd—over
the redio, but an editoricl which we are
sure will interest you cll.
To begin with» the rules. It really
won't be us t e think it is. It's
evor,from our usual

after all, those rudes were lcid doi

obey theme
thing, howerey,which
right to feel "hot"
There is one
we have a perfect
under the collar’ cbout, That's the
college students breaking our rules d
their own, Yes, they ure our serio
but, have they the right to lig
evade ZI1 school laws whetsoever? We say
no! We have to obey the rulesy they
should, too.
ts eating in the Cafete-
ria, have rece y noticed quite 6 num
ber of collegy students in there.The poe
int is, they were not all eating,but wire
studying, Is tue Cafeterie c study room?
Have they no librurics, no lounges,no ree
Creation hells, no study rooms, no vacant
places in which to study? Surely there
must be some place for these college
students to study» They should not use
the lunchrooms, Qur lunch period should
be ours. We only have one helf hour a
day, and thet mst be ours.The college
should yield to us our places of eating
at that time, Of course there are specinl
exceptions to any rules But not to studye
ing in the lunchroome
The college girls heve elso been
using Milne girls! locker rooms es dress=
ing rooms, They cotld not do that when
the lockers were in Milne, why should
they do it now? Is it fair to our girls
to have to climb over college students
to get to their lockers? Our lockers end
pnouNe be re
our benches ere ourse They
cognized as
college girls" lockers as thoirs. ie ely
we do not hnve to stand for these things.
We must be recognized] It is our right?
The college studsnts; even though our
high superiors in classes, should be our
equals in school rulece They shoul ot
be able to breex our rules end reguls
tions.
(continued from column one)
You shorter girls should weer street
dresses or short party dresses. If you
weer so long dress you will probably be
stumbling all overe Weer the print silk
drepsea-you received for Easter. With your
dress weer shoes of leather or suede. You

GO AHEAD, LAUGH!)
Go ahead, luugi:, but be sure you
know what you're laughing about. This is
advice given to the ninth grads boys who
are laughing at the girlst basketball
Playing. It is true the Delmar game was
@ great defeat for the Milne freshmen,
but take it from ne who wAs present, we
maaée @ big showing as fighters. Margarct
Chase's brufsed cheek is a syribol of her
magnificent playing. Believe me, she
certainly did some playing. Boy, oh boy,
is she a fighters Doar old Alma Mater
certainly was backed up by Margaret,
Jaquelene Townsend is amther of these
heroic girlse Tulk about bravery, the
way "Jackie" went after that bull was
wonderful, She wasn't afruid of the Dele
mer team, No sirco$ Neither wes Alora
Beik, who did some grand fighting, and
Marthe Frytag. Jecn Tarches should be
classed as a "hangereomer-to-the-ball" ¢
for she certainly wasn't going to let my
peir of lavender rompers get the ball ae
way from the red shorts.
Adele Lazarus, did wonderful guarde
ing. Pity the forw:rd who wis guarded by
her. Evy Wilber <«.lso did her best, and
when that girl does her best, look out
(you know shets Miss 9the grude, Honor
Student). Sue Roberts would have won the
game single handed if it wus up to her «
She was packed full of patriotism. Betty
Menn did some excellent work in the art
of guardings Helun Rus wis «1so one of
the hard working Milne girls.
Well, after ill,ww had meny diffie °
culties to overcome, including the Dele
mir team's three yecr's of prictise to
