has rejoined the high
school as has Dan Glover,
Stricken by infantile
paralysis during the sum

of the seventh grade, has
now returned to school.
The pupils and faculty
welcome these new addi
tions to the student body.
Eighth Grade Presents Comical Hit
Well at last the irystery
is solved I I The whole high
school had wondered for
days why the eighth grgde
had been singing at the
top of their voices "I
Didn’t Knovf The Gun Was
Loaded."
Under the leadership of
Mi.=!S Oglesby, home room
teacher, and Mrs, Tichonor,
public school music
teacher, the eighth acted
out that popular song of a
few months back, "I Didn’t
KnoTj- the Gun Was Loaded."
The stage was transformed
into a typical court room
with Douglas Broiivn as
judgQ. On the right of the
judge were seated the
jury; on the left a chorus
of girls dressed in color
ful cov;girl siats told the
story in song.
Y/hen Billie Fay Perry, as
Miss Effie, came prancing
out in a complete cowgirl
suit on, the student body
let out a terrific howl.
The program climaxed with
’Itiss Effie being shot in
the court room by the
sheriff's jealous wife.
