SCHOOL FOUNTAINS
While the scacol is m-king improve-
ments in the locker room, we believe
that it should also put in W foun
tains. One udded to the first floor
would certainly be uppreci:.ted. The
fountain ca the second flocr, if fix-
ed, would :lse ..dd to the general
su.tisfuctio the school. Wher we
are on the ground fleor to gst a
drink, wid then whet do we find but
hot weter in pl..ce of the cool w.ter
we ect. This is curteirly irrit.-
ting when you «re thirsty “nd hive
only two minutes before cliss. If
you do get neur the fountrin on
third floor, there are s¢ many there
with the same ide: of getting a drink
thet you ciumnot possibly weit fer
your turn. We believe that this situ-
etion could be remedied by h-ving
more witer fourt.irs and cleaner snes,
INTER*SCHOLASTIC G.MES FOR GIPLS
There cre not many girls games
in Milne High School; these thi.t ure
played ore praucticiully unheurd of.
We believe that we have some excep-
ticnal girl athletes whe sre good
enough to play with other sc! is.
This would give them more ence
@ would make them weil-kn If
boys can play with ether schools,
there is no recson why this shzuld
be denied the girls,
The girls' bu.sketbell clesses
have the choice ¢f tennis or beseball
for gym fer the rest of this yeur.

TRAPFIC CLUB MEMBER Ker LIES
Dear Editor;
The Traffic Club of Milne High
has ,rectly improved the conditions
in the school. We have done our
best to keep order in the school
during the lunch period, and think
we have done very well. We believe
that we keep the annex and cafeteric
in good order; the students go
through the halls and up cnd down
stairs in an orderly manner,
The Student Council thinks
that we cun do better. However,
Student Council overiooks the fict
that four or five members of the
Gonrncil belong to the Traffic club.
We ore always gicd to receive any
suggestions thi.t students have to
oriere
