Doing* In and Aroimd Sdux^ Now that we are a central

school, it was necessary to adopt a new alma mater. A committee was formed of Miss Barnes, Mr. Sheppard and Mr. Hertwig to de-cide on a new song. These three teadiers, with the assistance of Mr. Sheppard's two history C classes, wrote and presented the song to the school last week. The tune is taken from "Palisades, ' N. Y. N.'s alma mater. It is a very impressive song, and will be sung at all basketball games.

Last Friday in assembly an old tradition of M. H. S. was revived and taken up again in M. C. S., the old tradition of having a sing-ing assembly. Old son^ of M. H. S. were sung, traditional Christmas songs were sung. Mr. Bley and Mr. Sheppard lea us in the songs, and Doris Myers played the piano.

Mr. Sheppard and his cheer leaders have fashioned a new cheer titled "La Conga." Those of you have seen it, will agree it is "smooth." It has been taken from the new dance La Conga, and the girls really get into the "swing" of i t

This Friday will be the last day of school in 1940. There will be Christmas parties in most of the homerooms after the assembly is presented by the grades. There will be gifts exchanged, games played, and food eaten. The buses will leave between 3:15 and 3:30. When again We walk into M, C. S. it will be IWJ.

Many of you saw the Christmas play Tuesday nigjit, and will agree that Mrs. Lonsdale and her help-ers, and the cast deserve all the credit and congratulations that anyone can give them. The play, "Why the Chimes RanfL" is a traditional play in M. C. S. It is to be present^ every two years while the school is in existence.

Have all of you seen the star on the front of the building? At night it is most impressive. It is all of blue lights. In each of the door windows there is a wreath with a red light.

Sports Bang! Zowie! What a beatingF

After defeating a weak Dellii team the previous week, Margaretville was all set for a tough encounter with the Walton Warriors, but it was more than plain tough. The first couple of minutes was a dose ball game, but then Walton turned on the heat.

At the half the Warriors had a

margin, but a ' Walton team s o ^ at the

oxnfortable 21-7 "never stop rolled on to a final ix^tfe.

Valk took scoring honors for M. C. S. with six points while Belmcsit and Doro were in the spotlight for Walt(»' with 13 and 11 pomts reroective

A mudi bigger 'ely.

and stronger Walton J. V. team romp^ over the Margaretville off-springs by the tune of 25-7.

Last nig^t the Margaretville boys took on the Windham team but the results were not known when this paper went to press.

Several students in the grades are starting to take lessons on new instruments. It is wise for the grade students to start on in-struments now as in a few years they will be the making of the band and the ordiestra.

The band is now working on a new piece, "Victor Herbert Favor-ites." This piece will* be one of the pieces played at the concert Jan. 4.

Christmas Parties This Friday each dass will have

its own Christmas party. AU the classes will have the programs in their homerooms with the excep-tion of the Seniors and the Juniors. The Seniors will take over the cafeteria and the Juniors the library. Gifts will be exchanged and refreshments served at these dass frolics.
