Sports of the
High School

Boys Basket Ball was played this
year for the first time. The boys have
played we'll, but have lost the most
part OF their games The loss
OF couple of the best players
have handicapped the team to great
extent. We have divided honors with
Blue Hill, while Franklin, Guide Rock
and Cowles have bettered MS by mar
row margins. We hope to take the
return games with Franklin and
Guide Rock. We will make desper.
ate effort To retrieve our fortunes in
the coming base ball season.
The high school football team met
with varied successes and defeats. On
the hole season they made an even
break with their opponents, wining
three, losing three and tying two. The
score of Red Cloud is much higher
than their opponents. Lack of weight
and experience WAS the chief handi-
cap to their success at first. The team
suffered quite loss at the very start,
Captain Saunders suffering injuries in
the first game that kept him out all
season. The return to school of Rus
sci Amack strengthened the team in
a very material way. Turnure, Pope
and Biackledge did commendable lie
work in the back field. They will be
very valuable to the team next year.
In the two lcontests with Franklin
Academy the boys We're badly ont.
weighed. In the last game the ball
was in the academy's territory most OF
the time, andEbut for an element OF
luck that enters into all games the
score would have been different.
The first game was with the alumni
This was bitterly contested affair
which ended in IA tie. This game re
treived the financial fortunes of the
team, and enabled them to buy sweat.
ers. On the whole the season might be
said TO be success, for the boys in
their hardest games, when they We're
beaten the worst, did not quit butkept
up the pep and played harder. After
all the question in any game is not
whether the game Is won or lost, but
how was II won or lost.

To hear some of our good citizens

After the completion OF the Lincoln
building three years ago, we congratu-
lated ourselves that the question OF
school room was finally solved for
many years to come. The new build
ing could easily accommodate Il high
school enrolment of $50 students.
Less than three years after the COM
pletion of the new building we find 1t
necessary to crowd 443 children into
the Lincoln Building and isl into the
old one. During the past year it has
been necessary to refuse admission to
beginners for want of room and at pres
ent new arrivals are only accepted
when gap has been made by child
