the Yakima fair. In this group, the
Colville high school team took Sec
ond place. Floyd Johnson was placed
second of all the boys there. The
team consisted of John Kimberling,

first place, winning it with only
slight margin over Colville.
Juniors Will Not Give Fair
Contrary to the usual custom of
the junior class, there will be no
high school county fair this spring.
The funds derived from this activity
in the past have been used by. the
juniors to give the annual banquet
and dance to the senior class. The
| juniors will secure outside talent this
year to raise the necessary funds.
They will probably secure Mr.. Les
lie Farnham of the Cheney Normal
school for one number. Mr.. Farnham
will undoubtedly read "The Melting
Pot"
Big Deeds
"Big Deeds" is film that is being
loaned by the General Electric Co. to
the high school, and will be shown
soon. This film has just been pre-
pared by the New York State cleo
trical company and shows many new
manufacturing processes employed in
their plants.
Single Fair Buildings
Manual training classes went to
the fair grounds Monday afternoon
and Tuesday afternoon and worked
on the large exhibit building laying
the shingles on the roof. Through
their efforts shingles on nearly two
thirds of one side were nailed in
place. They were busy bunch I'M
til a wagon load of watermelons
came along and the boys broke all
records ever established getting off
the roof, in fact they used so much
speed that they nearly stampeded
the regular employees of the fair
association.
Ag. Classes Help
All the classes in agriculture have
been assisting Mr.. Durdle at the
fair grounds. They performed a
thousand and one little tasks at the
fair grounds, helping clean up around
the building, loading and unloading
trucks, and helping with the exhibits.

Football Dope
"Hit low and hit hard" has been
the motto of the football squad since
they turned out for practice the first
week of school. With only one reg
ular player and three substitutes in
the squad from last year as founda-
ton Coach Oberhansley filed in the
ranks with rockies, and has drilled
them into promising team. The
first game is with Deer Park, Oct. 2. Z.
Last year C. H. S. met the Deer
Park aggregation at Deer Park, on
Armistice day, and lost the game by
three touchdowns. Deer Park lost
two players by graduation, while Col
vile has only one left by graduation.
But despite these handicaps there,
promises to be an interesting time
