The fine points of the game
were that Lamar played rings all

Not once did Rocky Ford make the

downs. And though they tried sew

complete a single one At no time
were they within SO yards of scor-
ing. This goes to prove the
strength of the stonewali defense
that Coach Hawkins has developed
in the Savages. The Savages put up
an offensive game that would pug

As a speculator the state OF Okla

supposed to exist.
The board has been attacked by
the citizens of Beaver and Texas
counties who hold that the wells
we're not drilled as deep as the
measure man employed by the
board had said they were. One re-
suit of this was a damage suit for
$4,000 against citizens of Texas
county with o. II. Brewer and
other members of the board as
plaintiffs. Other hindrances were
y
placed in the way of the board.
and the latest trouble was the
disappearance of a timekeeper who
had in his possession about $500
of state money
The wells have been drilled on
state school lands. The state schoo
land commission had advertised vir-
tually all the school lands of the
state for sale. but 1t withdrew the
lands of Cimarron. Texas. and

He prommised to have the natter

The talks by Superintendent Mo-

deserve especial mention as they
brought out the fact that not the
school building alone but the ef-
forts and determination on the part
of teachers, students and patrons
should be dedicated to greater
zeal and endeavor to a higher plane
of living, intellectually and morally.
The address of Judge Goodale
was full OF good things. The ad-
vice he gave to the students when
on the athletic field was indorsed
by all present. when victorious to
take 1t with deep Joy. feeling and
pleasure; when defeated to take 1t
gentlemanly, pleasantly. not with a
Crouch. but with a determination to
win out ultimately" His plea for
championship in the intellectual
fields as we'll as on the athletic
field should be an ambition of our
school and his insistence of moral
culture as equal of mental and ply
sical intellect should be the en-
deavor OF each student.
Judge Goodale's address will be
an incentive to better work and of
higher striving by each boy and girl
who were fortunate enough to hear
him.
