Rioters for the 9th grade of the Ca
nal street school had their desire graf
flied Saturday afternoon, when the
young athletes of that grade won the
annual track meet, securing more points
than any of their opponents, the 9th,
eth and Sth grades boys of the Main
street school, on the Valley fair ground.
The winners scored 63 points against
IS for Main Sth, 90 Is for Main 9TH
and 81 % for Main 9th

the highest number of points won by
any individual, his score being IS, and
he was followed by Edward Bolliger,
Main Sth, with IA; Paul Nelson, Main
Sth, u; and Clarence Morrill,, Canal
9th, IL.
Taking into consideration the size of
the boys the exhibition was remarkably
! good and the spectators frequently
commented upon the agility of the
| lads. Especially good showings wer"
made in the high jump, pole vault and
dashes. the high jump ranging from
/ three feet 10 inches by the small boys
! to four feet seven inches by the large
! BOYS, while some of the smaller boys
vaulted over the bar set at twice their
| height. and the times made in the
dashes were gratifying to their coach.
Judging from the attendance, there
was an apparent lack of interest on the
part of parents and older friends of
/ the participants. but the girls and
! teachers from the various grades went
! to the meet ''loadcd' with songs and
cheers and nquestionablv their en-
thusiastic 'rooting" did much to
help along the boys of their respective
grades. The lads, after failing to ego
OVER on their first or second tries,
took new courage as they hear Coach
| Diedrich Stoltc : familiar ''trv again, -
''you can do it, or "take it easy
now The interest of the spectators
was manifest in hearty applause and
cheers and it was impossible much of
the time to hear the announcer, the chill
drcn having watched so closely that
they were shouting loudly the winners
in their grades while the announcer was
carrying out his duties Altogether the
E boys did surprisingly well, and with
continued practice through the grades
! and in high school should prove crack
teams for Brattleboro high.
Bronze medals for first and second
place in the events and ribbons for
third place were presented to the win
ners in their respective rooms this morn
ing and each received a round of ap-
plause.
