HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
(By D. H.

The next Baconian program will be a
latin play conducted by Miss Brooks.
AS Miss Brooks has staged so many sue
eessful plays and programs every one
is confident that this play will be ever
successful. The play will be staged
about the last of the month.
The next basket ball trip to be taken
on the train by the locals will occur
Feb. Bird and 4th, when the locals will
play the fast Ilo-Vollmer town team
and the Nezperce high school team. In
the meantime hard practice will be in
dulged in and the locals sincerely hope
that they can come back from their
trip with a double victory.

one of their players, refused to play
the basket ball game set for Monday

acknowledged by the Seniors, who were
to be their opponents in the game; they,

thus winning by a score of "a.
Last Friday morning assembly was
held for the purpose Of holding yell
practice for the basket ball game,
which was to be played that night.
After speeches were given by the class
presidents and the members of the team
the entire high school joined in on the
yells selected for the occasion. Much
spirit and life were put into the yells
which made the school proper feel as
tho the game to be played was already

team will journey over to Cottonwood
where they will engage that team in a
game of basket ball. The locals have
already won one game from Cottonwood

they are going over with those inten-
tions. The trip will probably be made
in sleds if sleighing is good. Some of
the pupils may also accompany the
team if the weather is favorable.
