A good beginning —
A good ending (we hope)
The Junior class has made a good
beginning by starting to work im-
mediately after the election of offi-
cers and a sponsor
We have already set the rate of
the class dues and have started plan-
ning ways of obtaining money to cov-
er the expenses of the coming year
The members of the Junior class
are on the alert and willing to tackle
anything suggested to make money
We hope the class will keep up the
same spirit throughout the year

The Pep Rally Thursday night

cause Coach Wilson proceeded to
have everyone shot who was not very
very loyal to Healdton high school
A Zaneig football player was found
spying on the meeting He was kill-
ed by the coach and was carried out
on a stretcher while the band played

across the street still have headaches
because of that musical racket

Zansls Beats Bulldogs
With Kennedy doing most of the
work Zaneis beat the Healdton squad
here last Friday Maples was out-
standing for the locals both defen-
sive and offensive In the last half
the Bulldogs seemed to get the spirit
and came back fighting but failed to
score Holden's passes to Allen and
Walk accounted for gains as well as
Maples oft tackle thrusts Healdtons
chances to win were somewhat weak-
ened by the fact that both halfbacks
Knight and Schoffstall weie Injured
In the line Reneau Chilton Sil-
vers and Caudill played a bang-up
game This week the Bulldogs go to
Sulphur to engage Sulphur High In a
conference game With a more dif-
ferent line-up to face than heretofore
the Bulldogs are out to win Silvers
burley tackle has been shifted to
halfback by Coach Wilson in an ef-
fort to get more power and interfer-
ence in the backfleld Walk the di-
minutive halfback who accounted so
well for himself Friday is beginning
to look like another “Bo” to us

not yelling
Who’s Who in Healdton High
A T Burney has been a student
in Healdton for ten years He has
been a bass horn player in the band
for six years He is an excellent stu-
dent having for the past two years
received membership in the State
High School Honor Society
When A T was a Sophomore he
was elected President of that class
Last year and this year he has
served his class as vice president
Last year he was the Student
Council Representative for the band
and has at various times held offices
in that organization
A T is one of the best and most
popular students In Healdton high
school We are proud to have him as
a member of our student body
Why Do?
Seniors always lose their dignity
when the bell rings and rush to the
door When once in the hall they re-
gain their dignity and snob the other
classes
Juniors act like roosters they are
lowly enough in the presence of Sen-
iors but watch them strut around
the other students
Sophomores rush around talking
Geometry and second year Spanish
for fear someone will think they are
Freshmen
Freshmen always start guiltily
when a teacher addresses them
Teachers call a special assembly
and tell the students to put their
lunch sacks pecan hulls apple cores
and notes in the waste baskets when
a piece of paper is found in a dark
corner of the school building
S O S
Help! Who is calling for help? The
Magazines of Healdton high school
are calling frantically for relief from
the treatment they are receiving
from the students It seems that the
magazines receive the least consid-
eration of all library material The
backs are torn off and on the pages
may be found the autograph of al-
most every student in high school
and his or her particular friend at
that time The desk of the library is
practically covered with “Red Books”
“Colliers" “Americans" “McCalls”
etc At the end of each hour and fhe
librarians go to their next hour
classes with cricks in their necks
from dodging magazines
The magazines are donated by stu-
dents who are anxious that others
have an opportunity to enjoy reading
material which has been read and
found interesting Please help the li-
brarians keep the magazines in
shape for reading as long as possible
No student lias a right to mutilate
or take away that which has been
provided for the common good

New Income Tax
Bill Off Ballot
OKLAHOMA CITY Oct 15— Gov-
ernor Murray’s proposed income tax
measure today was hurled into dis-
trict court litigation that appears cer-
tain to eliminate the possibility of Its
reaching a vote in the general elec-
tion next month
District Judge George W Clark is-
sued a temporary restraining order
against R A Sneed secretary of the
state certifying the ballot title ap-
proved by Attorney-General King and
submitted to him 10 days ago by the
governor The order was made upon
application of Baxter Taylor and Ira
Mitchell nominal sponsors of the in-
come tax bill for an injunction
against Sneed Hearing was set for
Friday
10-Day Delay
The petition was presented by C
W King attorney for the tax com-
mission after Taylor and Mitchell
had filed a new ballot title with the
secretary of state The new ballot
title is identical with -the one sub-
mitted last June and approved 10
days ago by King but Governor Mur-
ray and his aides contend it was il-
legal because it was submitted too
soon
Because 10 days are allowed for
appeal from today’s ballot title the
new development virtually assures
a delay of the vote until after the
November 8 election The attorney
