HIGH SCHOOL COMMENT.

The w. H. S. basket ball teams |
played their last game of the season |
with Bryan in very creditable |
The lineup was as follows
For both halves:
Shuriow rf Heise
Bill Brannon If Alderman
Silcox c. Geringer
Shaffer g Keller
Russell Brannon g Westhoyen
church. so
Baker Of this place was referee in
the first half of both games. The
first half of the second team game
was moderately free from fouls being
mostly team work and skirmishing.
Sweeney and "Joaney" Snyder GER
tainlly earned enviable regulations as
stickers but even that didn't prevent
the ball from rolling under the stage
and hiding couple minutes. The
score of the first half was 8 and in
our favor. To give proper setting
of the first team first half few
second assistant subs tried basket
practice while Mr. Allstetter applied
a little floor paint. Bryan's first
team came on the floor dressed for
business. They all wore knee guards
and little Bill Brannon wore an elbow
protector. Yet, "for q that and a
that" the score of the first half was
Ia and in our favor. Keller started
playing trifie loose but soon knuckle-
ed down to fine work. The game had
hardly begun when Alderman made
a splendid field basket. In the last
half second team game the playing
was good but the final score stood 18
to 8 in favor of Bryan. In the last
half first team game considerable
Facrobatic work was performed.
Then, too, the score became almost a
tie. That brought the audience to
their feet with a deafening roar that
lasted until after the game. Heise
threw field basket and again the
boys were playing as the referees
whistle sounded with the ball near
our basket.
The game as whole was probably
the best of any game this season.
The team work of both schools was
good with possibly a little better
team work by our boys. Our first
team has won three games this sea-
son although all final scores have
been close yet the defeated teams
must acknowledge that they were
outplayed, outclassed by team
playing a clean pure game. It is a
greater honor to be true sportsman
than to win all the games.
If j am rightly informed Miss Bak-
er's section in Rhetoricals is to hold
a session of court at the next meet
ing.
The debate with Hicksville has
been called by the school but instead
the team which was to debate then
will hold their foremost battle with
Fremont team. All the high schools
within radius of rs miles have been
challenged -and most Of them have
replied saying in polite language "We
are afraid you would defeat u.s." you
make debating q speciality etc. Still
we will have two other debates:--
Sanduskv promised to send a team
here if we would send one there. If
this sort of thing continues who will
we debate with next year?
There was another meeting OF the
Boys Athletic Association Tuesday
evening to discuss our part in the
Field Meet 1t was voted to enter the
meet but insist on general confor-
nifty to the rules governing the event
by all of the schools, ours included,
The date Of the event will be May IL
instead Of the 9th. But two events are
listed excepting the Irrational con-
test. The events have been "stand1
ardizedr and are as follows: 100 and
222 yard dashes, 440 and $50 yard
runs, 100 yard low hurdles(9), hanf
mer throw, shot put, standing high
and broad jumps and pole vault,
Many of our fellows are qualified but
we quit universal. I
The Girls Gymnasium Class gave

regular gymnasium work Of the clasS

pecially for this program. and con-
sisted of tableaux of series of pos
es. The poses were well conceived
and charmingly executed. The beau
| ty of the tableaux was enhanced b.
the colored lights thrown by the w.
H. s. steropticon.
Pauline Allion assisted the girls as
pianist. It would be putting it mild
lly to say that her work is excellent
and greatly appreciated by the girls.
The Auditorium was comfortably
crowded with enthusiastic, sympathe-
Itic, appreciative people. The stage
fixtures were kindly loaned to the
girls gymnasium class by Walter
Caddell, manager Of the Princess
Miss Eastman certainly deserves
the highest commendation for hel
work during this and the past years
with the girls of the w. H. S. Al
the weekly meetings the girls became
better acquainted and receive goot
physical training which will make
them better women and better citi
zens. May such good work continu,
and become more fully appreciated
by the people of this community.
