HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

The health department working in
cooperation with Supt. Tobey has
taken measures which it is hoped will
prevent the spread of contagious dis
eases and do away with epidemics, as
that of last winter.
At each of six school buildings a
physician will be in attendance each
morning at O'Clock and every pupil,
high students not excepted, who has
been absent "a hours or more, will be
compelled to undergo a medical in
spection. The inspection can be
avoided, however, by giving notice a
day ahead of absence, if the pupil ex-
poets to work or be out of town, etc,
so give notice before hand if you
your tongue, or answer lot of fool
questions about your little brother or
the baby next door, and maybe take a
few bad tasting pills.
The physicians will have their
headquarters at the following schools:
At the Franklin for the pupils of
the Franklin, Salem and ST. Michael's
schools; at the Humboldt for the
Humboldt, Zion, Washington and st.
Stephens; at the Longfellow for the
Longfellow and st. Mary's; at the
Lincoln for the Lincoln, Grant and
the room in the Presbyterian chapel;
at the Irving; and at the high school.
Carl Larson was elected captain of
the second foot ball team. They
could not have selected a better man
for the position, as Larson is ex-
perienced and one who working with
Principal Parlin the manager will ar
range number of second team games.
This year again the second team has
been promised games, and it looks as
if they were going to get them this
time.
Correspondence has been going on
in an endeavor to arrange first team
games a schedule which will comprise
Amigo, Stevens Point, Marshfeld,
Grand Rapids and possibly Witten-
burg.
One date only so far is settled that
with Merrill on the Sth of next
month.
An alumni team played the high
school team Saturday and defeated
them no. Notwithstanding the score
the H. S. boys made good showing
A large part of the alumni team were
varsity men and all of them heavy.
The H. S. team was somewhat weak
on signals but this can easily be over
come by practice. There was little
fumbling and the forward passes in
the main worked fine. Daily, our new
half-back, is fast heady man and
made several gains thru the heavy
alumni line.
Foster, playing full-back, put up a
good game showing his old style in
punting, which will be one of the
features of the team in later games.
Johnson, who played left half in the
first part of the game was as danger
Gus a man behind the line as any,
making many long gains. He was es-
pecially good in the forward passes.
Peth, who succeeded him, kept up his
former good work even improving on
that of last years playing.
Captain Brown at quarter was
the same old heady player that
we know so well. Piper, who went in
in his place the latter part of the
game, played brilliant game, both
there and at end, which he held dur
ing the first half Glen Ramsdell at
left end made fine showing, being
especially fast on both offensive and
defensive. Alexander at center was
very good at the new style of tack
ling The rest of the line did fine
work in holding their opponents.
With this team, and the fast second
team to give them plenty of hard
work in scrimmages, we have the
making of a champion team. The
line up in Saturdays game was:
High School Alumni
Piper. G. Ramsdell ri j. Dean
