Nome High School » i
Students Make Annual
Ski Outing Today
This afternoon the Nofne High
School students will enjoy their
annual skiing party on the snow
covered slopes of Mt. Newton and
Anvil Mountain.
An advance party has prepared
the skiing cabin, installing a stove
and a supply, of coal. The advance
party consisted of Robert Dunbar,
Ronald Engstrom, Paul Glavino
vich and Charles Fagerstrom. The
term “advance party” is used said
one of the school leaders, as it
is reminiscent of Aarnout Castel,
when 'he was on an “advance
party” in one of the Arctic ex
peditions led by Vilhjalmur Ste
fa russon.
Olaf Halverson, Bill Ullrich,
and John Rauch will accompany
the students and share in the
skiing activities. One of the large
local buses will transport the
skiers to the mountains.

Play Within Play
In School’s 4No
More Homework*
The public is cautioned not to
miss the novel features of the
three - act comedy * “No More
Homework” to be presented by
the Nome High School April 19.
There are a number of arrest
ing events that develop at Ames
High School on the fateful day
that Mr. Lundquist, its principal,
is absent, and Pamela Jones,
president of the student council,
has to take over. Chief among
these hilarious events in the first
night performance of the school
play, entitled “Rusty Wings,” in
which Ames High’s “gift to the
the-ah-tah,” one Tallulah Ploetz,
is starred. At least, she was sup
posed to be—until she suddenly
and mysteriously developed a case
of laryngitis, and her understudy,
the busy Pamela, is forced to take
over the part on very short notice.
Later, Tallulah just as myster
iously regains her voice and is
jealously determined to be in on
the play—but it is too late! Even
as she is arguing in the Superin
tendent’s office with Shalimar
Ames, the pretty but spoiled and
conniving daughter of the town’s
leading citizen, there comes the
sound of distant and prolonged
applause from the auditorium.
“Rusy Wings”—however wobbly
—is already under way! Come
and see the unusual twist which
develops in the plot of “No More
Homework,”
