Shelton High School: Southside: First Pep Assembly Gives Football Team Good Send Off K;naergar+en Es+a "By VI(J VALLEY PEP AEMBLY "We've got spirit" is a new cheer and aptly described SHS'S first Pep Assembly, which was held during fifth period last Friday. A "spirited" class competition, with the seniors bursting paper bags to back themselves, and some cute skits by the Pep Staff 'marked some of the program. 'oach Jack Wright gave the line-up, then spoke briefly, as did Tom Malloy and Eldon Allen. The band supplied a surprise change of atmosphere when it played "The Stripper" as one of its numbers. Spirits .were high and--it is interesting a n d gratifying t o note--the team went out and won that night. ROOTERS BUS Response to the Rooters Bus was extremely good for this, the first away game of the year. Two buses travelled to Elma for Friday's victory. Hopefully, such team backing will continue throughout the year, so there will be at least one bus going to each away game all year. Rooter bus tickets combined the game ticket price with the transportation fare. For last week's game, tickets were $1.15. FRENCH CLUB French club is extending an open invitation to all French students to join French Club. The only requirement is that one must have taken some French somewhere along the line. Meetings this year will be held the first and third Wednesdays of each month. The main club projects thus far are elections and writing a club constitution. Club adviser is Mrs. Mildred Kreger. HANDBOOKS Handbooks came out last week and were distributed throughout the school. Each member of the student body should now have one. The handbook, in its own words "is planned and editied by the sophomores and juniors in the journalism class. It states rules and regulations of the school and serves as a guide for school activities throughout the year." It includes, along with the student government's Constitu- tion, Football and Basketball schedules, clubs and organiza- tions, class and bus schedules, and the Alma Mater. (Other things, too) 'Editors this year were Jody Strand. The cover design is fresh and one of the most modern SHS has had. It was designed by Becki Holland. A.S.B. OFFICERS Associated Student Body of- ricers for this year are Eldon Allen (senior), president; Scott Puhn (junior), vice-president; Christine Ness (senior), secre- tary; Anne Connoliy (senior), treasurer. They will be leading the student body throughout the year. SENIOR COURTESY Contrary to most under-class- 'men's belief, Senior Courtesy is a legitimate right. It is a tradi- tional privilege which is to be observed by all sophomores and juniors. Of course senior aren't to take unfair advantage of it by making slaves out of the under-class- men, but this right is not to be ignored by them either. This includes the senior oc- cupying the front seats in the auditorium and being the first to leave assemblies, both in the auditorium and the gymnasium. A word to the wise under-class- men would be to observe this-- after all, you'll be a senior some- time in the near future, too. CLASS MEETING Seniors and their adviser, Andy Tuson, met last Thursday during fourth period to discuss senior pictures, the Senior Bali, class colors, motto, and such. Dean Palmer talked about the variety of pictures available to seniors and explained how sit- tings will be handled. Each student received a printed sheet with information on this subject. Class President, Jerry Sparks, asked for nominations for the other class officers and they were made. Voting will take place at a later date. Tuson then took over, explain- ing the other questions which the class will have to take care of in the near future. The meeting lasted all period. SENIOR PICTURES Friday seniors signed up for pictures during their civics clas- ses. They may have their pictures taken at any studio of their choice. Those not having their pictures taken by Ziegler's or Dean's should see William SteinBacher in Reed Building Room 18 as soon as possible. The annual staff has set up the picture schedule, and it is posted on the Angle and Reed Bulletin boards. Boys should plan to wear a dark suit or sport coat, white ngen, Ste Speece al attk. shirL, aDd. tie, Girls should plan to wear light or medium tone sweaters. iVfoney for the sitting is to be paid at the time the student comes for it. SENIOR BALL The general date for the Senior Ball is Nov. 17. Ideas for themes are to be submitted by putting them in Andy Tuson's suggestion box. Whoever's theme is chosen by a class vote, will then be the chairman of the dance. From there, sign-up lists will be posted on the bulletin boards and if there is to be a dance, seniors must sign up to work on them. FEATURED TEACHERS Study hall students have no- riced something new this year in the form of two young women teachers, Mrs. Sather and Mrs. Jay. Here is a more complete in- troduction to them: 1W_rs. Jack Sather is from Seattle, where she went to Queen Anne High School and the Univer- sity of Washington. She and her husband moved here in the mid- dle of August from two years in Memphis, Tenn. She enjoys snow and water skiing. Her husband works for Simpson International as an Import Trader. Mrs. Steve Jay, who is from Carson and attended Western Washington State College, moved here with her husband about a month ago from Bellingham. Mr. Jay teaches High School Physical Education, is one of the assistant football coaches and is the head wrestling coach. Mrs. Jay enjoys sewing, water skiing and travel. Neither family has any children, but Mrs. Jay has a dog and three puppies that she'd Fke to give away. Their joint comment on SHS was : "We have found the staff and faculty very helpful. Being new, we don't know many of the students yet, but we enjoy hav- ing them in study hall." GIRLS' CLUB Girls' Club had opened its year's activities by electing girls to lead activities. Newly elected executive board members include Cynthia Rice, Debbie Rae, Linda Trotzer, Kathy Dickinson, Donna Reed, Jana Barnett, Ginger Medley and Debbie Bannister. Program committee co-chair- m;en are Linda Cruikshank and Karen Bodle. Scrapbook co- chairmen are Sherri Smith and Jdi Long. Karen Franklin and III]1 Joan Barnett are co-chairmen for the Girls' Room. The first executive board meet- ing included discussions on the Homecoming dance on Nov. 3. It is thought that Pep Club, Pep Staff, and Girls' Club will com- bine their efforts on this. Minutes from executive board meetings will be written-up and pinned up on the bulletin boards in both the Reed and Angle Buildings following each meet- ing so all the girls will be in- formed of what is happening. A new activity this year is a Girl of the Mnth. Each month the girls will vote for a senior girl they believe to show one of these qualities : leadership, friendliness, sincerity, personali- ty, wisdom, courtesy, service and citizenship. October's Girl of the Month will be accenting friendliness. The Girl of the Month will be announced at the all Girls' Club meeting which is hoped to be held at the end of each month this year. She will also receive a pin signifying that she won this particular honor. In May, all the previously se- lected Girls of the Month will have their pictures posted on the bulletin board. From them a vote will be taken for Girl of the Year, who will be announced either at the fal awards as- sembly or graduation. F. H. A. Club Adviser, Mrs. Noreen Jef- fery's account of her trip to Ha- waii this summer made up the Future Homemakers of Ameri- ca's first program of the year. This year officers presiding at the Sept. 13 meeting included Angle Barber, president; Pam Swayne, vice president; Laurie Seljestad, secretary and Sherry Stidd, treasurer. Angle explained F.tLA. and its purposes, then went on to discuss probable projects for this school year. These included a ear wash, w a i t i n g table f o r banquets, sponsoring a dance, presenting party, supporting a girl at Buck- ley, decorating the halls during Christmas, as well as their Octo- ber installation. F.H.A. has alternate business and program meetings, taking place on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month.

This was the brief description of Pep Club as made by its President, Pat McNeil last Satur- day. Rounding out the club's ex- ecutive branch are vice-presi- dent, Iach Swayze, secretary, Fran Rice; treasurer, Wendey Bollender, and adviser, Mrs. Su- san Jaynes. The first meeting was held Sept. 12, when cormnittees were formed to look into getting the new uniforms planned for the year (red corduroy koulette jumpers) and articles to sell to boost school spirit around the school. "Everyone (especially more boys--W:E NEED YOU) is in- vited to join," Pat repeated. STUDY HALL REVISIONS Study halls have been divided in half this year. Both segrrents still meet in the Angle library, but each half of the library has a separate teacher. This revision is due to the enlarged enrollment this year. Student enrollment has increased by about 120 pupils over last year's number. Study halls now hold approximately 130 students at times. COLLEGE PREPARATIONS All seniors planning to attend college have had, or will have shortly, a meeting with 1W_.rs. Martin, college counselor, who will discuss their plans. Questions which she deals with at this time are the choice of college and major in relation to requirements and what financial aid one might need and or be eligible for. These students must plan to take the Washington Pre-Col- lege Prediction test, which lasts approximately three hours and will be administered Oct. 14, a- long with the PSAT (Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test) for in- terested Jtmiors. AIR FORCE TEST The Air Force Test to find strong and weak points in voca- tional realmS will be given at 1 p.m. Oct. 4. All senior boys and senior girls taking office practice are eligible. If those tested later join the Air Force, these results will be used in placing them. If the student doesn't enter the Air Force, however, he may still have the results for his own use. CALENDAR A quick glimpse at today and a tomorrow or two: Today the Key Club members met at 7 a.m. at the Timbers Restaurant and the Naval ROTC • had an 11 a.n. program for interested and college-bound se- nior boys. Starting Sept. 25 and con- tinulng through Oct. 4, settings for Senior Pictures will be given. The Girls' Club Installation will be held next Wednesday. The Junior Honors English class had a car wash scheduled for Sept. 28. Money from the pro- ject goes toward a trip to see a play in Seattle later on in the year. Next Friday the Coast Guard will be represented at Shelton High School--more on that next week. A little further ahead we find Oct. 4, the Air Force Test and Oct. 14, the PSAT and WPCPT testing date. ASSEMBLIES COMMITTEE This is a group of students including a chairman and repre- sentatives from each class. They organize and direct the assembly programs during the year. An announcement this month requests interested students to sign up in the Angle office, and from these names, the corranit- tee is chosen. This could be a good place to help with school activities-- it's something to .think about. lYl[ERIT WINNERS Be sure and watch for the names of the students who placed in the highest catagories in the highly selective and respected National Merit Scholarship Qual- ifying Test ! They will be announced next week. At School This Year By MRS. RAY KRATCHA SOUTHSIDE -- Kindergarten at Southside started Sept. 11 and is in full swing. Mrs. Calvin Poe is teaching kindergarten. P.T.O. met Sept. 11 for the first meeting of the new year. The new officers took over president, Veta Holtorf; vice president, Nad+ne Hovind; secre- tary, Marian Eveleth and trea- surer Margaret Bacon. Willam Clark, the music teach- er was there with Johnny Hal- vorsen to show all the new music instruments which are available for band rental. The Executive Board served refreshments. There are two School Board vacancies open if anyone wants to file with the County Auditor. Sept. 22 is the last day for filing. Mason County Fire District No. 4 is having some trouble with the alert system plectrons, which seems to work for some firemen and not others. Due to location they may have to erect an an- tenna somewhere in the dis- trict to get better reception on the alert system. The firemen are going to get a full set of fire fighting clothes in the near future and each fireman will be responsible for his own clothes. The 1967 budget is running very low in finances, but will make it for the remaining year. The Fire District No. 4 has plenty of water available at dif- ferent points in their District and we need more firemen to fight fires with two fire trucks going always to answer fire calls. The next fire meeting will be at Little Skookum Fire Hall Oct. 10 at 8 p.m. Don't forget the firemens dance at Little Skookum Hall Oct. 7. The Mason county Firemen Commissioners Association meet- ing will be held at Belfair Fire Station No. 2 Oct. 5 at 8 p.m. The Southside Grange had it's regular meeting Oct. 15 with three visitors Mrs. Martin Deputy Holmes Washington.
