    OHS GRADUATES
28 SENIORS
High school graduates going
into the working world must
defend the American form of
government by using the edu
cation they have received in
high school. So said Dr. George
W Rosenlof, of the University
of Nebraska, in the commence
ment address for the O’Neill
high school seniors held in the
high school auditorium hera
Tuesday evening at 8 o’clock.
Dr. Rosenlof primarily stress
ed defense by the graduates of
the public school systems, of
freedom of worship, of ouf
types of homes, all for a better
and more unified democracy
Secondly, Dr. Rosenlof hit on
the need for higher education
if it were at all possible. He
pointed out that 50 years agq |
an eighth grade education was
sufficient; 15 years ago a high
school education was adequate
but today, because of the need
for specialists in all fields, it
is necessary to have a college
education.
Llovd Sexton, principal of
the school, presented scholar
ships to the following: Helen
Bowden, regents scholarship
University of Nebraska; Marie
Fox, Nebraska State Teachers’
colleges; Ivalyn Brady, alter
nate regents scholarship and
University of Nebraska school
of music; Leona Serck, Norfolk

Dwayne Borg, Nebraska
church colleges. Leona Serclj
also received a medal for plac
ing eighth in an 80-minuta
shorthand test in the National
commercial contest sponsored
by the Modesto, Calif., Junioi
college. 190 schools in 40 states
entered competition.
Eighth graders also received
their diplomas at the joint
commencement.
Awards were also presented
to the “Fair and Square” club
This club includes students
from the third to eighth grades
Each year they elect a mem
ber of their class as a “good
citizen.” The awards were pre*
sented to Leland Snyder, third
J[rade; Carol Fredrickson
ourth grade; Dean Clyde, fifth
grade; Carolyn Moseman, sixth
grade; Warren Seger, seventh
grade; Margaret Aim, eighth
grade; and Tommy Bean, spe
cial room.
BRING PUMP INTO
USE ON SEWER
The city has found a tempo
rary solution to its sewer prob
lem.
A pump is being leased to
force sewerage from the lower
end of the municipal sewer
system into the Elkhorn river
In recent weeks the mouth
of the sewer has been partially
clogged and sewerage has
backed up into the system, ov
erflowing from several man
holes and spreading out over a
portion of Carney park and
other acreages in South O’
Neill.
Most of the trouble, city
officials say, is attributed to
the inadequacy of the sys
tem. The installation dates
from 1913.
Donald Price, of Lincoln, ci
ty engineer, made arrange
ments for the pump which it
being set up on a lease basis
The city will have an option
tc buy- the pump and turn
rental payments onto its pur
chase price.
Sotpe city officials feel that
the measure is strictly tempo
rary and ultimately a disposal
systtan will have to be install,

Replacement Cattle
Values Edge Higher
on Atkinson Market
—
Under urgent demand and
light receipts, choice steers
sell from $29 to $31.50 a
hunredweight at Tuesday's
auction; butcher hogs reach
ed $20.
The largest attendance in
over a month plus small re
ceipts and an advancing fal
cattle market gave stocker and
feeder cattle prices a boost at
last Tuesday’s auction in At
kinson. Muddy roads held re
ceipts to a few over 300 head
—the lightest since last Sum
mer.
Although the entire list sold
higher than a week ago, the
advance was most pronounced
on lightweight stockers and
feeding cows which looked an
other dollar up on top of last
week’s sharp advance and now
places these two classes within
striking distance of all time
highs of early last Fall.
Lightweight steers from $2C
to $31.50 a hundredweight
comparable heifers at $24 tc
$26 a hundred, heavier weight
steers from $22.50 to $25 a
hundred and feeding heifers
from $21 to $23 a, hundred
Feeding cows from $17.50 to
$20 a hundred and, butcher
bulls from $19 to $20.70 a hun7
dred. i
Butcher hogs sold' up to $20
a hundred with heavier weights
going between $19 and $19 75
a hundred. Sows cleared at $16
to $17.50 a hundred. Weanling
and feeder pigs were in excel
lent demand.
Next auction: Tuesday. May
