HARDWICK

When your correspondent wrote the
item last Friday about the basketball
game that was to be played on Friday
evening, Dec. 10, that the Legion boys
won, the hunch was wrong. The item
was written before the game and in
this case the unexpected happened and
the visiting team went home with the
bacon by a score of 20 to Ia. Thus
FAR the Woodbury. boys have not lost
game:
The Christmas vacation dance given
by and for the benefit of the Hardwicll
Academy Athletic association at the
gym last Monday night, was not as
largely attended as was hoped for,
there being only 30 couples dancing.
FMS dance was given to assist in rails
ing funds to equip homemade shower
bath IL the gym, boon the academy
boys in this town have never had but
about S25 was realized toward this
end. It has been suggested and the
idea is good one. that the present
academy team arrange for a game with
the alumni boys who are home for the
first of next week. Among those who
would be eligible to play arc Campbell.
Huntington, Lameri, Cordela, Town
send, Dunnells, Mitchell and others,
and this outfit could certainly make
the local team dig in their toes for all
they are worth Let's see something
like this pulled OFF and this would GER
tainly tend to draw crowd that would
help swell the fund for the installation
Of this shower bath, something that
has been and is badly needed for those
who take part in the games during the
winter.
