DR.. Hamilton Certeis, Immaculate

going to talk especially about my

assembled in council, gravely discuss

too sad to ever mention the dead

terest in the activities of the school
or course, there are some who can
always be depended upon to help us
but they are in the minority. We
hope in the future there will be more
of them.
There have been times when the
best basketball teams in the State
have played here, and our gymna-
SUM has been almost empty of spec

have not the proper community spirit.

game will be played in Lovelock the
following Saturday. The P~ershing-
ties have taken nearly everything

will go home good losers.
The price of admission will be fifty
cents. This includes games with both
the boys and girls teams of Love

The Winnemucca teams have not
been chosen. The boys have had
some very good practice with the
town team. Lovelock is reported as
having a very good girls team, so IL
seems that the Winnemucca girls
will have to put up a good game.
1t is hoped that the town people
will give their support by atten ling
those games, as well as those which
will follow in the near future.
