SCHOOL NOTES

ming OF what promises to be Glenwood :
most successful football season.
A great many of the high school stu
dents accompanied the boys on thei!
trip. Mr.. Stoddard, our high schoo
principal, was there also, but was kept
well in the background and was given
no opportunity of doing anything
which might bring discredit upon the
rest of u.s.
The speed displayed by our boys in
the second half of the game was moth
ing more than an outbreaking of the
old time grit and determination which
has characterized our athletics from
their infancy.
In past years the Genwood boys have
played teams that have outweighed
them thirty to forty pounds to the man
and while they have usually lost, they
have won the respect of their oppo.
nents through their determination to
keep on fighting losing game.
Now that we have the opportunity
of playing teams nearer our own size,
we are going to win. We have proved
this at Rifle. October we will prove
it to Leadville, and on October 81 Asp.
en-, too, will learn the lesson. That Is
the way we all feel so it must be true.
Charles Rohr, who has fought ana
bled as quarterback in many Of Glen
wood rs games, is doing excellent work
as coach this year. The boys all work
ed together to get him the position and
no Glenwood team has ever given more
strict obedience to the rulings of a
coach He has promised the boys a
banquet if they win every game tins
season and the fear that he will have
to give them the banquet grows on HIM
with every football practice.
The board of control of the Garfield
County High School Athletic assoeia'
tion met and the following schedule of
football games was arranged:
Oct. Z, Glenwood VS.. Leadville at
Leadvile.
Oct. IA, Glenwood VS. Rifle at Glen
wood
Oct 81, Glenwood VS.. Aspen at Asp
en-.
Oct. %, Glenwood VS.. Leadville at
Glenwood
Nov. IS, Glenwood VS.. Aspen at Glen
wood.
OF the above games Glenwood is
fated to win but five.
The girls basket ball team has com
menced active work and when the sea
son opens they are sure to be the
winning misses Mr.. Stoddard has tax
en- charge of the team and by so doing
has caused himself to be envied by
every boy in the high school.
The new west wing of the school
building is going up fast and the chill
dren will very probably be in it before
snow flies. This statement gives the
contractors lots of time. The two new
rooms are to be occupied by the first
and second grades and the present
second grade room will be given up en-
trely to domestic science.
The complaint of sore eyes made by
our science teacher on the day follow
ing the Rifle game was probably due
to the strain Of searching among the
empty seats at school for some poo!
innocent victim upon whom to inlet
the benefit of her knowledge of the laws
of motion. Little did she know that the
football boys We're learning more about
motion in one minute than Newton ever
dreamed of.
Arrangements are being made for q
boys chorus in the high school and MI
Girdler, our superintendent, who takes
an active interest in affairs, has vol
unteered to take charge of the matte,
and instruct in the singing
The board has installed number OF
new books throughout the school. Thu
/, will be great help to some OF the
students whose brains resemble horse
They disdain eating anything that som,
other brain has already trampled on.
If any one, has old files of magazine
or periodicals. they wish to dispose o
they would be gladly be accepted as al
addition to the school library.
