NEW ULM TRIMS ST. PETER.
Local Quint Knocks The Halo OF
St. Peter in a Close and
Exciting Game.

Before crowd of about 800 people
the New Ulm High School Basketball
team defeated the St. Peter H. S. team
by score of Is to 10. On account
of the delay caused by the train being
an hour and Is minutes late the game
did not begin until 1890. This, how
ever, did not put damper on the splen-
did roofing which had been started in
the preliminary games.
The contest was exciting and close
at the beginning but the St. Peter boys
were not able to fathom those ingenious
signals taught our boys by Coach Kier-
EEK. Our boys went at it in a business
like manner which brought them three
baskets in the first half. The St. Peter
boys were content with one, but came
back strongly in the second half and for
while it was doubtful as to which
would win. Both sides seemed to have
trouble finding the basket and more than
once the crowd was held in suspense
while fate decided whether it was to
be basket or not. Each team made
four baskets in the second half, Dur
balm doing the scoring for New Ulm.
Crone's first attempt at inter-scholastic
basketball is certainly worthy of COM
ment. Lehman, our star center, tried
heavy lifting stunt, lifting one of St.
Peter beavyweights clean off the floor.
Mully Herzog, as usual, put up whirl-
wind game, and Weddendorf was on
his toes from whistle to whistle.
Roebeck starred for the visitors.
Baker and Hollander each found the
wicker twice. Davis and Sheehan had
some trouble in locating the basket but
succeeded in locating it once apiece.
Altho little rough work was noticeable
at times the general tendency of the
boys was to suppress this.
Next Saturday the team will journey
down to Mountain Lake to try conclu-
sions for the second time with that team.
AS two of the men who played at the
beginning of the season are out, the
chances for victory are rather meagre.

SENIORS ENJOY DEBATE WORK

. I " . tsg
The class debates in Mr.. Kierzek's
Senior English Glass have aroused an
unusual amount Of interest, although
this sort of work is SO new here that
it's announcement was received with
groan that would raise the dead from
their sleep. The Seniors, however, had
determined to make the best of it,
and much to their surprise became SO
interested in the work that series OF
lively debates resulted.
In December the County Option
question was threshed out and decided
in the affirmative. On Tuesday of last
week, the question of re-introducing
interscholastic football to New Ulm
was lost after a spirited discussion.
Mr.. Hess acted as one of the judges,
and when called upon to make few COM
ments he voiced his approval of debating
as very practical and useful training.
On Wednesday the Mail Order House
question was decided in favor of the
Mail Order Houses. The following day
the negative again won on the question
that the Presidential term should be
restricted to single six-year term. The
Friday debate was on the question of
abolishing jury trials in the United
States. The decision gave the mega
tive majority.

PROF. COCHRAN READS "MAN OF
THE HOUR"

To the Senior Class may be given the
credit of having brought to this city,
| a man who is as much an artist in public
speaking as Professor I. M. Cochran
Of Carleton College proved himself to
be last Wednesday evening. To the
small, but enthusiastic audience assembl-
ed in the auditorium of the High School,
he gave masterful Interpretation of
''The Man of the Hour" Seldom has a
public reader 50 impressed his audience
as did Mr.. Cochran on this occasion.
"The Man of the Hour" is four act
drama which treats of the political
corruption of the government in many
OF our large cities today. The story
tells OF young mans entering politics,
filled with noble ambitions through
his love for the niece and ward of
financier. He is elected mayor by the
people. Through his desire to do the
right thing by them he makes enemies
of the political boss and the fnancier.
After hard and conscientious struggle
he finally succeeds in defeating his enc
mics, and wins the girl, for he proves
himself to be the 'Man of the Hour"
The characters in this play are real,
varied and individual, and these make
the story full of human interest. There
are also humorous situations throughout
the story, which through Mr.. Coch-
rams Interpretation of them caused
much laughter.
Mr.. Cochran's powers never fail
him. He presents his characters in
so natural and individual manner
that they seem to be seen and heard by
the audience. They grow and become
more distinct as the play goes on. The
climax of the story comes where Vain
wright's clerk, Thompson, denounces
Wainwright.
Mr.. Cochran is truly an artist. Not
only is he a splendid reader but also
has a splendid voice, a pleasing stage
appearance and strong, striking per-
sonality, all of which 60 toward making
him splendid public speaker.

FRESHMEN WIN TWO GAMES

The Freshmen Class walked away with
all the athletic honors in their interclass
games with the Sophomore last Friday
night. The victory of the Freshmen
girls came as a surprise to every one
as the Sophomores seemed to have the
advantage of weight and experience.
The many chances which the Sopho-
more forwards threw away in tries for
the basket the first half lost them the
the game. They had the ball under
their basket throughout most of the first
half, but their repeated tries at the wicker
failed to net them any scores. The bas-
ket shooting of the Freshmen was below
standard also, but in both cases this
failing can be we'll overlooked when
considering the fact that this is the first
time the girls ever played basketball.
Ellen Ochs and Josephine Fredericks
each scored three field baskets for to
Sophomores. Gladys Grussendorf net
ted the same number for the first
year girls while Louise Fritsche shot
two field baskets and two free throws.
The guarding on both sides was close.
There was an entire absence of any rough
playing, but the team work was only
fair. With a little more practise, how
ever, both teams will give the upper
classmen hard race for school honors.
The boys game was a walkaway for
the yearlings. They outweighed their
elder brethren so much that the contest
was never close. The Sophomores, how
ever, put up as game a fight as can be
seen in a basketball game, and gave
their heavier opponents plenty to do at
all stages of the game. The first half
ended with the Freshmen leading 9 to
1. The second half was a repetition Of
the first, except that the Freshmen got
a greater lead upon their opponents.
The final score was 26--6, after the second
half had been stretched to the limit of
| its elasticity to keep the crowd busy
while waiting for the St. Peter team to
arrive. The game as whole was char
acterized by several weird shots by
| Maurice Dougher, and the sublime dis
regard of all team work by both Fresh
men and Sophomore. a

SOPHOMORES ELECT OFFICERS

The meeting held by the Sophomore
Class Friday was one which would
have turned any Senior green with envy.
The amount of ''pep" and enthusiasm
displayed was worth seeing. The Soph-
ignores elected their officers in quick
and business-like manner. The officers
are: President, Wenzel Kral; Vice Pres
ident, Armin Koehler; Secretary, Ameei
Krook; Treasurer, Roy Fenske; Cheer
leader, Walter Wiedenmann. After
their business matters had been dis
posed of they practiced their yells,
the results of which they showed at the
game Friday evening.

The competing teams were eligible
to this contest nom TIE fpct that the
Luverne team had previously defeated
the Lakefeld team, and the Redwood
Falls team had defeated the teams Of
Tyler and New Ulm.
The Journal cup is held by the Gale
donna team and if that team wins the
battle this year it viii retain the trophy
permanently.
Mr.. Lewis in writing the Review states
that the Redwood team handled their
arguments very well but talked too fast.

NEW BABY GRAND" COMES TIC
SCHOOL.

A beautiful new Baby Grand piano
was brought over from Winkelmann's
Music Store to the school house last
Tuesday afternoon, and now graces the
stage in the assembly room. This
piano is at the school on trial, and if
satisfactory it will be paid for by che
Alumni Association and the School
Board. The presence of new piano
will have salutary effect upon the quail
ty OF singing at morning exercises and
upon the orchestra and glee club work.

SEMESTER EXAMS GIVEN LAST
WEEK.

Semester examinations were given the
high school students last week in all
half year subjects. These examinations
are those provided for by the state
high school board, although several
OF the half year subjects escaped the
vigilance of the board. New subjects
were taken up this week to take the
place of those completed; among the
new studies which is welcomed with
much interest by the Seniors, is the So
called Dismal Science" Political Econ
omy.

COOPERATION"
(Editorial.)

New Ulm has many attractions
some given her by nature, and some
which show the progressive spirit o.
her citizens. OF the latter our new high
school is one. No one can 60 through
it, but must marvel at it. 1t is one OF
the best equipped high schools OF the
state. We know it, and appreciate it.
We are proud of our new home. Every
niche and corner has already become
dear to us. 1t has already shown a
tendency to increase the desire OF each
one of us TO show our appreciation for
it in all ways we possibly can.
We have the beautiful auditorium,
and are taking advantage OF it by try
ing to give such entertainments as we
think will appeal to the public. 1t
was indeed a disappointment to the
Senior class when so few of our citizens
turned out last Wednesday evening to
hear the masterful Interpretation of
''The Man of the Hour" by Professor
1. M. Cochran of Carleton College.
The class knew this reading would be
worth while. That must have been
self-evident or otherwise they would
not have had him come. What we,
the Class Of 1915, are now earnestly
striving for, is to see the people Of this
city come in close touch with the stu
dents and their affairs. We want them
to cooperate with students and teachers
alike do all in their power to make
our high school life as pleasant as it
can be made.
The average boys and girls regard
their entire high school career as one
great big "Duty'' or else a great big
"Joke.' They 60 because they feel
they have to-they want diploma,
so they can go on to college, the life
that appeals to them. Why shouldn't
they want to 60 to high school? That
is just where the trouble lies. They
don't; and they show it by the "don't
care' attitude they have toward every
thing. Now something is wrong. 1t
can't be blamed on the faculty they
have been doing all that is in their power
to eliminate this spirit. The real and
underlying cause of all this is the fact
that the people are not doing what they
should to support our school. They are
not standing back of us. They have no
interest in our welfare. A stranger
coming to this city last week had to
ask several different people where the
high school was, before he found out.
There are enterprising business men in
this city whose faces we have never
seen inside of our new school. The
members of the Commercial Club, all
of whom speak so often Of ''civic PRIDE
do we ever see very many of them? A
few always have, and always will show
interest, but that is all. People have re-
peatedly been asked to act as judges
for class debates, but none of them have
ever appeared. In the last four months
of school there was scarce a single
visitor at our school who came there
because of an interest in the work of
the students. What does this show?
