1.-THE Chinese Romance" which the
seniors so successfully staged last
week, will be given at Moreland on
Friday evening of this week. The
young people have put good hard
work on the play and the Moreland
people will get treat in this per-
formance. Specialities will be intro
duced after each act.
The overall demonstration is now
over at the high school. It became
necessary to check this fad as it was
interfering with school work.
The domestic science girls gave a
dinner to the school board on Mon
day evening before their regular
monthly meeting. The girls were
congratulated upon the dexterity
with which they carried out their
four course dinner. Both in cooking
and serving, the girls showed the re-
suits of their training along the line
of household arts. The girls gave
this dinner at their own expense ana
their work in preparing and handling
the affair was marked az an examina-
ton by the teacher, Miss Southworth.
1t is needless to say that such exam
nations appeal to the board as being
practical and elective.
Blackfoot is State Chapions in Bas-
ket Ball
The high school boys won the
championship of Idaho on Monday
evening, before a packed house. The
final score of 81 to 20 does not really
show the relative abilities of the two
teams as Blackfoot had Mountain
Home outclassed in every detail of
the game. The visitors made but
three field baskets dr2ing the entire
game, while Blackfoot scored fifteen
baskets for a total Of thirty points
+ by field play. Mountain Home had
won the undisputed championship OF
western Idaho and came over here
with all kinds of confidence that they
could scalp Blackfoot easily. They
were more than assured when they
looked over the home boys, as our
fellows were dwarfs when compared
with the visitors. However, speed In
basket ball counts more than beef
as has been demonstrated In every
game this year in which Blackfoot
was contender.
This ends the most successful sea-
son of Basketball in which the local
school has ever participated. One
game was lost to PocateIlo, but this
was counted out by a game one week
later on neutral floor and with neut-
raj officials. There is not a high
school team in Idaho that has show
with Blackfoot and few college teams
has any edge over them at the pres
ent stage of development. The boys
are to be congratulated upon their
great success and Mr.. Crutchfield
should share all the honors with
them as his untirlng efforts have
made it possible for BIackfoot to sign
herself, Basket Ball Champions OF
Idaho"
