A Great Need

Our boys and girls need an indoor
gym. The tournament at Springfield
brought this fact out quite plainly last
week.
When our boys competed with those
teams that had the same equipment
they had, they came out ahead, but
when they played against team that
had had the gymnasium training they
found themselves greatly handicapped
and were badly defeated.
We are all proud of our High School
and we want it to excel in all lines
We want the outside towns to know
that Forsyth is on the map. Above
all We want our boys and girls 10 gel
an all around education, fully equip
ped morally, mentally and physically
10 hold their own in the battle OF life.
