THE QUAKER

Do You Wonder? Have you ever wondered why yau don't get as

good a grade in a test as someone else. You study just as long and as hard, but yet when the time for the test comes you can't seem to figure out the a n.swers as quickly as the other person.

Well, perhaps it is because tha:t other student knows HOW to prepare for a test.

Most teachers agree that t he proper method is:

THE cSt~L \/olHO SELl.S Xt1AS CARDS IN 'T~ SP~ING .

-l!J--First: Prepare each daily lesson -carefully. Second: List~ to the class discussion ea:eh day

TffE' COVA.If~ OF T~E. PRESS•r-'-----:""--------. W\10 HAS T~E MORAi. COURAGE TO <i>ET UP \'11\lll.£ IT'S '111.l .. OAQ~ IN T+'E A. M.

and t ake notes on it. Third: When reviewing for the test go over each I

important new idea introduced. Fourth : Take notes on the new ideas and study

them along with the notes on the class discussions. If these four rules were followed by every student

preparing for a test, the number of failures on report cards would be greatly reduced and' the number of A ncl B students would increase.

'Mass Grass Murder \

At. last the season of spring is upon us and the litt le blades of grass are shyly peeping out to view the world.

At J?resent a certain heartless group of students have decided it is so much easier to walk across the grass than to take the few extra steps necessary to stay on the sidewalks. Thus this group, unknowin~ly of course, is committing more murder by mangling the grass and trampling the very life aut of those poor- innocent green blades.

SUrely the only reason they do it is that they don 't understand the suffering they cause. Now that th e misery of the blades of grass has been realized, we feel sure that no student will attempt to kill the grass and ruin the school lawn by carelessly walking on t he grass.

VENTURES BY VIVIAN FOLTZ

Although without any room to talk, this depart­ment -thinks it was _pretty funny when Mr. Hambone Umberger, under the advanced instruction of Nonna West, decided that he would 'waltz' gracefully around the floor at the Varsity S Skating party. We're afraid he just wasn't up to Par on the rink curves and consequently there is a big 'splash' and several holes Jn the wall, also a rather lame leg and a scuffed up knee proving that he · didn't quite know what it was all about, but he had flUl, didn't you Mr. Umberger!

SALEM, omo

They teJ,l me there were some mighty lame stu!les stumbling thru the halls of Salem High the morning after the Varsity S club skating party. The majority of those who attended came out O. K. though and a/ good time was .had by all present.

Have ya' seen Mouse (the Louse) McGhee and Bob Ruffing showin' off those classy Varsity S jackets yet? They sure are proud of 'em and they have a right to be. No doubt other jackets will be blos- · soming out in the near futilre on others of \ the new members of that organization.

Flash! ! ! Lefty &hmid, the Hi-Y's famed low point man came through with a superhu­man effort as he · flipped in SEVEN tallies against the Scienceville Hi-Y last Friday. We, the other mepibers of the Hi-Y squad are on edge for fear Lefty will blow his top in an effort to pass his new mark. This lad surely li~es up to the Hi-Y motto: "Do or die for the High-Y". . , _,_ See where Coach Herbert Brown

of Salem High's basketball squad carried off the most valuable play­er award in a Hubbard tourney last week. He's made a habit of this in the past· few seasons in tournament p~ay and deserves all the congratulations he has coming 'to him. Just warming up for. the Little City tournament, I guess.

All his friends are glad to see Mel Wukoti~ back in school after an absence of some five days.

Then comes the tournament to be held March 27, 28, 29, which, inci­dentally, is the saine as the annual Little City tournament at the Memorial Building. Yowigstown South will oppose the local Hi· Y tomorrow at the Youngstown Y. M. C. A.. The Hi-Y record stands at 16 triumphs and four defeats for the current season.

Guess what? On looking at the calendar your scribe finds that spring vacation is just around the well-known corner. Oh, happy day. A whole week of nothing but ipeaee and quiet may<be.
