age the boys.
The new band played down town
and also favored us with few select
ions on the grounds.
The crowd did very we'll keeping
off the field.
No substitutes were needed in the
game and none were used.
Several of our new players are
from Pleasanton Quite number
of their friends were up to see the
game.
Coach Hoffman has a tackling
dummy rigged up on the field. It
has brought results. Our team did
fine tacking in he game.
Our boys were little slow in get
ting off their plays. This defect will
be remedied as the team gets more
experience.
While the game was hard fought
every man on the playing field was a.
good sportsman throughout the con-
test.
Leon will eventually have strong
football team. First because we have
splendid material. Sesond, because
we have two excellent coaches.
Third, because of the fine spirit ex-
hibited by each member Of the team
and the hard work each is doing.
Next Fridays game will be hard
one, and the boys can hardly be ex-
pected to win. Humeston has al
ready played several games They

Organization

Beginning with this school year the offices of superintendent and principal have been combined. The high school which now includes the 7th and Sth grades from all districts of the town receives one-third of the superintend- ent-principaPs time and the district schools with eighteen teachers in thir- teen buildings receive the remaining two-thirds. There is special teacher of drawing who is expected to visit all of the schools once a month and a special teacher of music who visits them somewhat more frequently.
