rings ever chosen by a gradual
ing class from p II. S. (Last
years class not excluded.)
The verdant freshman and
their following had another OF
their now famous parties at the
home of Claire Fouch. The en-
tire class is said to have worn
|gooseberries on this occasion.
Some of the high school stu
dents attended the iollege-Nam-
| pa baseball game at Caldwell,
Thursday, being excused from
school on the condition that
they should make up their work
II they desired credit for the af-
ternoon's recitations. We are
proud of the fact that the nucleus

er p. II S. men, comprising OF
the pitcher, catcher, LIST and End
bases and lett field.

favor by this most critical body
The high school is still deeply
in debt for athletics and it is q
problem as to how it shall be
paid off unless we should look tc

that Caldwell should support us
