contests in the literary line this year.
Athletics will also begin soon. it
is announced, although it is not as
yet known whether or not football
team will be organized, as it all de-
pends upon whether or not the
neighboring towns have teams. The
students would like very much to
form team, though, as there is some
very good material this year.
