HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
by Mark Moe


Well! The home team lost. Probs-
bly, one of the greatest reasons is the
fact that there weren't many support
ers out to help. Nearly anyone can re-
call seeing or hearing of games in
which the inferior team won, on ac-
count of the spirit in the crowd that
was helping them. H. X. II. 5. lost TO
Portland Academy last Friday on our
own grounds, 7 to 0. The Portland
Academy team was made up of heavier
men, and they had better team work
than the high school team. But. ac-
cording to the coaches and officials, to-
gether with the verdicts of several foot
ball critics present, Hood River high
has speed. And with that to work
with, Coaches Wagner and Grout will
have an invincible team soon. Now il
is well worth your while to pay 95
cents and see that lii OIL high school
team play. Again, the coaches found
other faults in the team which they be-
ieve they can eliminate by the next
game. Ultimately it is very likely. ac-
cording to Coach Wagner that there
will be some change in the positions of
left half, quarterback and both ends.
Some of their changes, however, may
De only temporary.
No one ever realizes how much the
students appreciate the coming of the
town people to their athletic contests,
notfor the fact of getting the money so
much as the spirit they show.
And now to show you what the high
school team is really made Of, by what
they did Friday. The team made yard
age about the same as P. A. How
ever, in the first half they didn't play
as well as in the last half of the game.
p. A. forged right ahead and made
their touchdown in the first half; how
ever, in the last half the odds were
rather in our favor, and we came near
ly making a touchdown. In fact, Nal
Button did cross the line with the ball,
but in his 20 yard run down the field he
was very close to the side line and
in one step of that eventful run a por-
ton of one of the calks on his left shoe
crossed the side line, thus annulling the
touchdown.
The line up for Portland Academy
was - Simmons, C; Fraley, lg Glaatt,
1t; Strong, lie; Warrens, rg; Fuller. rt;
Bell, re; Capt. Lewis, q; Croften. rh;
Shoenberg, III; Hicks. fb. The substi-
tutions at the end of the first half were
Cudlipp for Croften, Croften for
Strong. At nearly the close of the
third quarter Croften was slightly dis
abled and Strong again took the place
at left end.
The high school lineup was: Jacob
sen, c; Lancaster, rg; A. Button. rt;
Jones, re; Hasbrouck, lg; Won der Abe,
It, Bentley. lie; Nickelsen, q; Howard,
fb NJ. Button, rh; Breed, III. The
were Tucker for Breed johnson for
Jones and Lofts for Hasbrouck.
Miss Alice See, county librarian,
gave quite an extended talk at the as.
sembly Tuesday of last week. Miss
See gave mintue instructions in the use
of the library, which she hopes were
needed, for they will save the librarl-
ans a great deal of trouble if carried
out.
At the senior class meeting held last
Thursday Mark Moe was elected editor
in chief of the Mascot; Miss Fila Me
hans, associate eitor; Leonard Howard,
UuSlnSss manager EAR Oudlk, JOke
editor, and Lester Fisher, senior class
representative.
The junior class elected Miss Marie
Bartmess as junior representative on
the Mascot; the sophomore class, Miss
Katherine Baker, sophomore represent
ative, and the freshman class, Frank
VonderAhe as freshman representative.
At this time of the year football
should come first. last and all the time.
The high school has the following
games scheduled: Franklin, high,
Portland, No l9; Camas high, OF Cam
as, Oct. %, and The Dalles high, Nov.
Is.
The high school plays Stevenson high
here'at 2.30 Friday afternoon. We GER
tainIy ought to win this game, since we
won two out of two games played last
year, and the high school is expecting
more people out to the game. The
reason for letting school out to play
the game last week and the game to
morrow at $50 instead of waiting until
$780, is that the expenses can be low
cred so much that it makes the propo-
sitiOn worth while.
