was set, but fearing the hip might be
injured they deemed it best to take

animation was made, the limb reset

school NOTES

With ten straight victories to it's
credit, the Boys team of Hope High
School enrolled in the tournament
held at Grand Forks for the Cham
pionship of the dictrict. The tour
nament opened on Thursday Morning.
Eleven teams were at hand to take
part. These drew. lot... ,oiy then
selves.
Fast playing marked the opening
round of the tournament. All of the
teams put up snappy exhibition of
basket ball. In the opening game
Devils Lake took hard fought game
from Leeds, score 27 to II. The
teams fought on nearly equal terms
until near the end of the second half
when Devils Lake took the. lead and
maintained it to the end.
Petersburg then played Park River
The latter team was showed under by
the score of 81 to a. The latter team
could offer no opposition to the whirl-
wind passing, team work and basket
shooting Of the Petersburg aggrega-
ton. Grand Forks then beat Ege-
land to the tune of 81 to 20. Lang
don then played Grafton in very
closely contested game. The game
was a scrap from start to finish, but
Langdon managed to get lead and
held it to the end of the game, which
ended with the score 20 to is. AS
to Hope, we quote from the Grand
Forks Herald.

Hope next was called on to sho,

Hope next was called on to show
what it could do. Rolla was the op-
posing team. This was the first
game of the evening and Hope scored
an easy victory. Both teams played
hard but the game lost some of its
interest soon after the Hope team got
under way. Playing in fine form
they took the ball through the Rolla
defense and scored without oli1iyulty.
Rolla put up stubborn opposition all
during the game but were outclassed
In passing and basket shooting. Each
man played his position in good shape
and their teamwork was of the best.
Ray for Hope is one of the best shoot
ers on the floor Reynolds at guard
put up fine defensive game and was
an important cog in the team work of
the Hope team"
This quotation taken from the
Grand Forks Herald is a tribute of
which the citizens of Hope may be
proud. When we add to this that
our Center, Myron Joslyn, has been
picked for All District Center, We
have still more reason for congratu-
lation.
Hope entered the semi-finals for
the first time in the history of the
school. They were pitted against
the strongest team at the tournament,
and were defeated. However we con-
slider that there was not single team
at the tournament whose defence was
not shattered by Petersburg. Defeat
at the hand of such worthy opponents

trip to the tournament, the high
school teams have planned a basket
social and set of class games to be
held some time next week. The time
has not been finally determined upon
but will be announced later. Be sure
and come for good time and at the
same time help out the team.
The High School gave it's second
literary program last week. The pro-
gram was largely devoted to extracts
from the works of Dickens. Many
readings were given which were
greatly enjoyed All are urged to be
present when possible at these liter
ary meetings. The time of the next
meeting will be announced soon.

consider that for ten minutes the
score stood / to /, and that then
Hope put in a basket making the
score 3 to 1 in our favor, in which
position the score stood until at the
end of Is minutes of play. 1t is al
most superfluous to say that our boys
put up a splendid fight. Hope
brought Petersburg nearer to defeat
than any of the other teams against
whom they were pitted. With the
team work at its best we lost one of
our players. Though all fought their
hardest, from that point on the Pet
ersburg five found themselves and tho
Hope made four more points they
were unable to Withstand the pace
now set by what proved to be the
strongest high school team that has
ever appeared on the University floor.
Petersburg played their last game on
Saturday night against the only re-
naming opponent, Devils Lake, and
secured an easy victory. Champions
of their district, Petersburg will no
doubt carry off the State Champion
ship. Defeat at the hands of such an
opponent is no disgrace. But Hope
will not rest on it's laurels; but with
the new gym planned, Hope plans to
do still better in coming years.
AS token of their pride in the
teams which have accomplished such
results, the parents and Faculty
planned surprise party for them. A
large and representative audience at
tended. There was an opening pro-
gram which had as it's first number a
splendid vocal solo by Miss Gardner.
|Supt. Schwalje was then asked to give
a talk on the tournament, which
brought out the splendid accomplish
ments of our boys. Tribute was also
paid to the girls team, which has
done so we'll, having a record of five

Bacher then favored with several
comical readings which were highly
enjoyed, after which Prof. and Mrs.
Schwalje favored with two instru-
mental selections which were we'll re-
ceived. The ladies then served a de-
licious luncheon, after which all en-
joyed themselves by once more talk
ing over the many things of interest
brought up by the evenings events.
A rising vote of thanks was called for
by Supt. Schwalje to which all heart
lily responded. The evening was a
memorable one and enjoyed by all.
The teachers and parents associa-
tion which was to have had its regu.
lar monthly meeting this past Monday
postponed it's meeting until next Mon.
day, March 18th. A program is being
arranged by the officers, and a large
attendance is anticipated. This meet
ing will be in the evening, at 500 p.

MEN ENTERTAINED At
BANQUET FRIDAY EVE.

The banquet for men given in the
basement of the Methodist Church
last Friday evening proved to be
very successful and enjoyable affair.
Between as and SO men sat down to
the splendid repast which the Ladies'
Aid of the church served them, and
did full Justice to it. After the eats
were over, a program Of after dinner
talks and music was indulged in
which seemed to meet responsive
chord among those present. Miss
Gardner, accompanied on the organ
by Miss Bacher gave two numbers,
and was obliged to respond with en-
cores to both. Rev. Martin made a
short talk, pledging his best efforts to
all movements for the benefit of the
community and solicitinEthe co-opera
tion and support of the men. OF
course the evening would not be COM
plete without calling on our local le-
gal light, Mr.. Shippy, to make a few
remarks, to which call he responded,
displaying his usual ability to make
good, and with (please note) unusual
brevity.
The address of the evening was by
District Superintendent Quigley of
Grand Forks, and it is putting it mild
ly to say that he made hit with the
crowd. The subject he chose was
THE New Earth, outlining the new
conceptions of recent years toward
world events, particularly during the
world war just closed. The address
dealt with the problems of the times,
showing that we have come to realize
that the parable of 1.-THE Good Sam
aritan" is not only binding upon in
dividuals, but upon nations, fact
that we have just come to see, and
to practice. The talk was inter-
spersed with humor and in all was
most helpful and entertaining to all
present. Which suggests that enter
tainment may be just as pleasant
when it contains elements of educa-
tion and moral uplift as when lack
ing in these elements.
