Debt a Menace.
The debt of the Athletic association
: not diminishing and there is serious
| danger that the high school will play
no basketball this winter and do nC
| track work i'm the spring. This is q
condition desired by no student. High
school work would become drag
without athletics TO enliven it. The
constant strain of study and routine
becomes stale and flat without some
| thing to relieve it. Usually the life
| IF the student is completely bounded
| by the four walls of the high schOo
building, and take athletics away the
interest of the school vii decrease
and the feeling of oneness diminish
It is the pride in athletic teams thai
| gives the students a common interest
and. realizing this, the pupils ough
to do something to remove the deb
and lessen the danger of losing ath
| letics.
