" On the School Scene By Glcnna Nance Once again the school bells ling , the clatter of locker doors is heard, and the halls of CHS fairly vibrate with the feet of pupils hurrying to their classes. A fter a week of getting back in­ to the routine of daily work, one student happily mentioned that she is beginning to get anxious fo r Christmas vacation. [Thrtte new subjects—’French, mechanical drawing, and driver’s training, have been added to the subjects offered. Algo, two new faculty members have- assumed responsibilities in the high school. As previously, the journalism class will print the weekly column in the Herald. Twelve students have enrolled in the course this year.

New Teachers A t CHS With the opening o f school last week, the pupils of Cedarville high school welcomed two new instructors. Miss Marti» Jones, who' teaches English and French, was gradu­ ated from Ohio State university and has had no previous teaching experience. Her hobby is music, and while in college she was as­ sociated with the publicity de­ partment of several dramatics clubs. When asked to give her first ' impression of our school, she re­ plied, “ I think it is a pretty nice school and it is very well equip­ ped. So fa r my impression has been good;’’ Edwin Markeson, who hails from Worthington, Ohio, gradu­ ated from Otterfcein college, and like Miss Jones, has had no pre­ vious teaching experience. He is in charge of all mathematics courses in the high school. For a hobby, Mr. Markeson likes best to hunt and fish. When asked about his impression of Cedarville, he said, “ It looks like a nice* place: to live.’’ He also, has favorable first-impression of our 151 Spracklen, president; school. We all welcome both new fac­ ulty members, and hope our as­ sociation with them will he a. long and happy one. Three New® Subjects Offered Three new courses are being added to our program this year, which will provide the students a greater variety o f elective sub­ jects, Mr. Walker will direct the stu­ dents in driver’s training, ith to classes consisting o f twelve pupils each.

With the majorettes, flag- bearers, and director, the organ­ ization numbers 49. “ The Forty- Niners?” Yes, they will have to resemble those gold-diggers, if they get themselves all uni­ formed and succeed in paying for the three new glamorous in­ struments we now own. We have one new bass clarjiet, which is manned by Janet Gor­ don. Nancy Harris is right out in front with the new trombon- iunr, and the hell lyre is being played by JoAnne Sheeley. These instruments are already being heard, and they are well worth the “ gold” they will have to “ dig!” The girls’ chorus is, as'usual, big and fu ll o f “ vim, vigor, and vitality.” We hope the whdle music department will be able to excel all previous years of endeavor.

Nearly 500 automobile accidents have been reported in Greene county in the first eight months this year. This includes reports from state highway patrolmen, the sheriff’s office and Xenia police. More than 200 persons / have been injured, and about* one-fourth of them seriously, and 26 persons were killed: Ail of [these figures represent new yearly records even if traffic mis­ haps are reduced greatly in the rest of the year. That means that accidents oc­ cur at the rate of about two a day and at least Oone person is injured in traffic every day. Death stirkes a little more often than once every ten days. August of J.950 went down in records as the . worst in history for Greene county highways. In the 31 days last month, nearly 100 accidents, were reported, in­ volving nearly 50 personal in­ juries and 6 deaths. Of these, 37 .accidents, 6 per­ sonal injuries and 22 fatalities were recorded in Xenia; 34 acci­ dents, 30 injuries and 4 deaths were reportedby the sheriff’s office, and 25 accidents, 12 per- were reportedby the highway sonal injuries*and nofatalities patrol.
