Thomson Township High School

Description

Students of vocational agriculture were selected by their agricultural instructor to represent Thomson Township at the High School Agriculture Students' Livestock Judging Contest and third annual Tri-State Invitational meet to be held at the Northeast Experiment Station. The band presented a big minstrel show at Lincoln School. The Thomson Township High School Band competed in the Battle of Bands at the Duluth Amphitheater, sponsored by the Duluth Chamber of Commerce. Superintendent A. L. Winterquist answered the question of why a student should go to high school. An "In Memoriam" item honored and memorialized Raymond Daniel Tan. In Washington school news items an article noted that Washington grade children were brushing their teeth with toothpaste sent by Kolynos Company to the students. Community news items were given, one of which noted that one of the oldest settlers here, Mr. Emanuel Himango, died at his home. Basketball practice started for the Thomson Tommies, with inter-mural football games were played. The Red Cross organization was the theme of the monthly PTA meeting.
