Work IN toth grades and high
school seems to have started We'll.
The teachers all seem pleased with
their classes. and almost without eX-
cepton the pupils appear to he ready
and willing to 20 earnest work.
The boys in the high school appear
to be enthusiastic over the prospect
Of Il good foot ball team for this
year breckenridge, Smlt, and Taylor
are the new players who they feel will
add strength TO the squad I'd,
BagGons has been elected captain.
All high school pupils who take part
ia games must have passed in four
full subjects the proceeding semester
and must be doing passing work
when games are to be played. In ad
dition all players must secure per-
mission from their parents TO take
part in games. Otto Schneck "A, who
has been rated rs one OF the best
players Milbank High has ever had,
has been secured as coach for this
season, and he will do everything in
his power to turn out team that is q
credit to the school. He says, how
hot k0 ut nj a mi
for the boys. and that it q good team
is possible it will be because the boys
are faithful at practice and keep up
their studies so that the squad will
not be reduced by players becoming
ineligible. Milbank has had some
great foot ball teams, and this will be
a good opportunity for the boys to
trv to equal some of the old records.
Mr.. Berg and the boys in the man
ual training department are much
pleased over some new equipment in
Ehe way Of drawing instruments. The
manual tanning courses may now in
clude some real mechanical drawing,
and the boys are hard at work max
ing their drawing board for this
purpose.
Two boys and three girls applied to
the superintendent to be enrolled IN
the manual training ana domestlc
sci, e departments only. On his
stating that he could not do SO he
was asked to refer the matter to the
Board Of Education. In special
meeting the t5oard decided that pupils
must carry full work in school il they
take the manual training or domestic
science WORK. This t. the same de
cision that has peen made IN several
cases in other wears when reGupe is for
special work were not granted.
