College Preparatory

I am sure that the Seniors realize the importance of college
preparation in advance but do the lower-classmen:J

College preparation means choosing the subjects and activi-
ties which will he the most useful to one during his college life.
This means that the earlier one decides which college he is going
to attend and the curriculum he intends to study. the better
opportunity he will have to spend his high school years in sound
preparation.

Too often a student reaches his senior year in High School
and learns. to his sorrow, that the college of his choice has
entrance requirements which he cannot meet. Too little foreign
language. not enough math or science are the most common
problems encountered.

All of this can be avoided by an early decision on where one
plans to attend college and what he wants to do during his
college years and future life. It is usually later than one thinks;
so, make an early decision. —L. T. C.

The Question Of Cheating

It has often been said that students have cheated since the
beginning of schools and will continue to as long as there is an
opportunity to do so. It has never been proved exactly when
cheating was first used but it is certainly no new idea. Roman
boys may have been the first, when successfully eluding their
pedagogs. they compared the answers on their scribbled slates.
Anyway, however cheating originated, one certain fact is known
about it; that it is still as much a problem today as it has
ever been. and perhaps more.

Let us look at cheating from an objective viewpoint. \Vhat
purposes does it serve? ls its chief service only that of getting
something for nothing. or is there another hidden deeper mean—
ing behind it? ls there a social concept of acceptance pushing
it on? Does a person feel that to be accepted, he must conform
to the standards of others. even if they disagree with his own
code of morals? Then. again. a person may have discovered
that cheating is just a part of school life. and may truly see
nothing wrong in it. He may see it as the easiest path to a goal.
And is be wrong? Has it ever been proved that knowledge
taken from a source other than your own does not remain with
you as long as knowledge that is unquestionably your own:J
( Let us look at the person that is constantly motivated
toward achievements that he is not capable of reaching. Doesn‘t
he have an excuse to “borrow" what he cannot attain himself?
And if he doesn’t. what can be the solution to his problem?
Cheating is considered by some to be a constant vicious circle.
And that is true, for when a person becomes entangled in the
web of cheating, it soon becomes almost impossible to set him—
self free. What then is the cause and the answer to this growing
problem? It can not easily be found. —K. D. C.

The Talking Radiators

Not the least of our advantages as students of our esteemed
home of learning is the chance to become acquainted with some
of the most personable radiators in the city. For the first winter
in years. the University maintenance staff has discovered that
the radiators are capable of putting forth some heat during the
coldest days. not much heat. but some. It was previously
thought the machines could only function in the summer
months. and they were put to vigorous use at that time. The
University is to be commended for this observation. The
radiators that deign to work are of a most unique nature. Not
content merely to stand in stony silence. they communicate with
each other in a glorious cacophony of varied clanks and hangs.

There is at least one radiator which even has its own private
ghost. This ghost’s sole purpose is to run an imaginary stick
along the corrugated surface of the radiator. This produces
a 1mt—so-imaginary noise. Another. has a voice like gravel being
shaken around in a coffee can. The rest of the clamor is no
doubt provided by some good soul who situates himself in the
basement and raps gently on the pipes with a sledge hammer.

\Vith a little perseverance you will find that you can come
to understand the language spoken by our friendly little heating
system. Learn to do so. for listening to a stimulating radiator
conversation will prove to be an intriguing diversion in class.

—Bethania Smith

Valentine’s Day

Saint Valentines Day was named after not one. but three
saints. They were all three martyrs and their feast days hap—
pened to fall at about the same time. There was also a pagan
festival on February 15. The most famous Saint Valentine was
a Roman Priest and doctor who was beheaded about the year
269 A.D. He is regarded as the patron saint of unhappy lovers.
The second martyr, beheaded in 273 A.D.. was also a lioman
bishop. The little-known third saint was from Africa.

Many customs have grown up around Valentine‘s Day. One
practice was that of drawing lots to pair off young men and
women who would be each others “Valentines" for a year.
In the United
States, cards. flowers, and candy. are occasionally given on
Valentines Day. Great Britain does not particularly observe the
holiday; in fact. it is generally reserved to the children in the
United States. ~Bethania Smith

Sometimes these couples would be married.

Student Council

The Student Council of Univer-

sity High School is an organization 1

created to give the student ex-

perience in governmental proce-‘

dure as well as to promote the
general welfare of the school. It
has but two powers according to
its constitution. First and fore-

} Little Choir

Matchstick Romances

The Little Choir has selected the Just Struck

songs which the members will per-
‘form for the music festival and
,the spring program. Several light
numbers have been chosen, and

the Little Choir for various per-
formances.

most is its policy-making power.:

This is its power to make any
needful rules and regulations con-
cerning the school, subject to fac-
ulty approval, of course. This,
however. is rarely used. It has
been used once so far this year.
It became necessary to publish
regulations concerning c o n d u c t
and procedure in the cafeteria.
Its other constitutional power,
definitely linked with the first,
is to hear the grievances of the
student body and try to correct
them. I am not sure that the
student body realizes its privilege
to come to the Student Council
with a problem for never has a
person come to us, but we are
always there ready.

Through the years and out of
necessity for something to do, the
Student Council has broadened
these powers so that it now takes
on other projects and activities.
It is now an annual affair for the
Student Council to put on the
barbecue at the first of the year,
to acquaint the new students with
the old. Also it is becoming tra-
ditional for the Student Council
to put on the carnival in the
spring as this will be the second
year it has done so. As another
project it took on a clothing drive
for the Save the Children Federa—
tion, but due to shipping difficul-
ties the clothes have not yet
reached their destination. This
will be taken care of.

A good question which is often
discussed at Student Council con-
ventions is whether or not the
Student Council is effective in
school. There are a few necessary
qualities for an effective Council.
One is a conscientious Council
body—one that enjoys or at least
is willing and able to do its duty.
This means that each and
every member must be desirous of
working for the Council and for
the school. Another is a co-opera-
tive faculty that will pass Council
suggestions and desires whenever
it is at all possible. This gives the
student body confidence in its own
organization. This, of course, must
stem from a trustworthy Council—
one that does not ask unreason-
able favors or charges of the fac-
ulty. A third is a co—operative
student body—one that respects
its Council and Government and
is anxious to obey its rules.

The faculty is co-operative and
the Student Council will try to be
as conscientious as

its every enterprise as do all organ-
izations.
ance out of respect rather than
fear, but whatever the motive,
observe the rules! And if anyone
has anything he wants done, any
problems, any suggestions, in re-
gard to administration, his Student
Council awaits with bated breath
and will greet him with open arms.

Double Quartet

At the first of the year Mrs.
Osborne organized a quartet. It
consisted of Susan Steele, Shelia
Hargett, Ernie Clark, and Lanny
Cox. It was decided that it would
be a little more successful if four
more members were added so more
difficult songs could be done.

The four new people that were
added are: Ruth Gaitskill, Lady
Greenslit, Bradley Switzer. and
William Yousey.

Boy’s Group

There is in this school, a very
fine group of miscellaneous male
singers. This group is more com-
monly known as The Boy‘s Group.
There are 13 members in this
organization. This year the group
will sing

the Spring Music Program here
at school. This year the Boy‘s
Group will again sing the popular
“Dry Bones” as well as several
other selections on the spring pro-
gram.

Fashions

After first semester exams. stu-
dents begin looking forward to
spring. Girls, especially, await the
new spring fashions. which are
shown in the magazines and stores.

The newest and most extreme
style is the chemise. 0r "sack"
dress. The girls who are going to
France this summer should keep
this dress in mind when planning
their travel wardrobe because it
is easy to pack. Another style
which promises to be popular this
year as well as last year is the
overblouse. The practical shirt.
dress is back again this year also.

in dacron. cotton prints and ox-l
ford cloth.
Flower prints are a refreshing

new style not only in the dress
department. but also in the sports—
wear department. For a very fem-
inine outfit. select Bermuda shorts
in a flower print with a matching
blouse. If you are the sporty type.
the ever popular checks and plaids?
will suit your taste.

The time for scanning magazines
and visiting stores in search of a

dress for the Sophomore Dance
and the Junior Prom is not far
away. Remember that net is not

the only material for a formal.
and that organdy is just as pretty.
Lovely formals can be found in
the fabrics of chiffon and taffeta}
