Y. N. c. A. NOTES.

Last Tuesday morning six Y. NJ. c..
A. mixers met at the Y TO start on a
two days hike to Hatley. A large
number had signed up to make the
trip but owing to cold feet or the in
stinct of pikers, only the six made
an appearance and although these
waited until $50, no others came into
the Y. The boys made fairly good
time arriving in Hatley at 2:30 in the
afternoon. A good, hot supper was
enjoyed at the Shilo, the main hotel
of that city, after which all turned to
the Wilterding home where a warm
fire had been built for the comfort of
the mixers. Here all had a sound
sleep, that is, all who were anxious to
enter its dreamland and at $50 the
next morning the return journey was
commenced. Dinner and breakfast
combined was cooked when about
nine miles of the return trip had been
made and it was mighty good meal
to the hungry walkers. The arrival
at the Y was made at one o'clock, ex-
actly. E. w. Brandenberg and Lloyd
Wells were the men who accompanied
the boys. The hike was very success
full but there should have been at
least twice as many on the trip.
Those who were on the hike were:
Erich Kragenbrink, Howard Wilter-
ding, Almon Pepper, and Eugene
Thayer
Ben Hudtloff and Walter Bright
took large number of Jr. members
of tie Y to Rib Hill last Thursday,
starting at $50 in the morning and
returning to the Y at four in the af-
ternoon.
The High School and Roost teams
played last Tuesday evening at the Y,
the former winning by score of Sc
to IA. A splendid game was played
by the High school and by winning
this they are to be awarded the cup
which was donated to the victorious
team of the league by Wilkes Jewelry
store.
The Seniors were beaten by the
Wausau Business college by score of
- to 81 on the same evening.
Both sides played game worthy
of praise and both showed their
improvement since the beginning
of the y league season. The
Business aggregation deserves especial
praise for its improvement since the
beginning of the season. Two months
ago they were behind the other teams
in playing, but to their credit they
are now able to put up good game
against any of the other teams.
The estimates on the new tennis
court which it is hoped will be put on
the atheletic field this summer,
have not as yet been received If the
expense does not prove to be too
great, an effort will be made to put it
in as there are many who enjoy the
game better than almost any other
C. F. Ogden will probably start a
bird club again this spring as he did
last. Many interesting jauntS were
taken last year and a large number Of
the feathered tribe were seen in their
native haunts.
There has been but little interest
manifested in the Vally Forum this
year and there will be no endeavor
made to have any more meetings
until next year.
Last week, being vacation time,
there was no high school supper-and
discussion groups. The regular dis
cussion groups will be held tomorrow
night.
L. w. Brandenberg left for his
home in La Crosse last Thursday
evening where he will spend several
days visiting and on business.
The Ingrahams were victors last
Wednesday evening in fast game of
basket ball at the y. The Nationals
scored a number of their points on
fouls and did not play as good game
as they shonld have. The Ingrahams
as a result of this game have gotten
the city basketball championship and
will therefore be awarded the loving
cup given by the Ingraham jewelry
store. They probably will be obliged
to play some other city teams before
all will submit to tie term City
Champs ,. This game practically closed
the \ basket ball season. The year
has proven very successful one in
basket ball. The Y league has been
a feature and there were many who
kept watch weekly for the announce
ment of the Tuesday evening games
and at every one enthusiasm was
marked by the friends of the playing
teams All of the four teams were
made up of players well known here
and for this reason the league was
probably more of a success than the
one last year could have been.
