The winning of Greenfeld's scalp was
the result of a hard contest. The team
greatly appreciated the splendid support
Of the students and townspeOple, Brat
tleborO'S cheering squad being equal to
Greenfeld's. The team realizes, how
ever, that the hardest games are still to
be played, the games with Holyoke,
Chicopee, and Bellows Falls. and that it
has need of the hardest kind of practice.
The game next Saturday is with Hol-
yoke and it is hoped by that time to
have new cheers and possibly new songs.
Meanwhile interest in the game with
Rutland increases almost daily, and in
quiries are being made concerning the
possibility of having a special train to
Rutland on the day of the championship
game. The spirit and enthusiasm of
the team is shown in the following quo
tation from high school theme:
BEAT RUTLAND"
Il do not believe that it is necessary
to call the student bodys attention to
the fact that b. II. S. possess a foot
ball team of some distinction. 1t has
been a common belief among people
that town is advertised by the mills
and products of the town. In some re-
spects that is so, but it is now admit
ted that a town is known also by its
schools.
We are proud of the way we are adj
vertising our town. We are doing it by
maintaining a high standard in scholar
ship, and by putting forth the strongest,
best. and cleanest football team in the
whole state of Vermont.
Il do not believe that it is too early
to mention the Rutland game. That
game is the only thought in the minds
Of the players. The coach tells them
about it until they dream it, live it, and
fight for it. Possibly lose to Holyoke
or Bellows Falls, but beat Rutland, he
This game is of special interest to
the members of the senior class. In
1917, when we were freshmen, we saw a
marvellous victory in Bellows Falls. 1t
should bring to us. that, if ever, the stu
dent body should be a united group, the
seniors being the backbone of this objec
tive, Beat Rutland.
At the junior class meeting Friday
these officers were elected: President,
William Moreton: vice president, Helen
WoOdworth secretary, Ruth Frederick
son: treasurer, Richard Gale; assistant
treasurer, Dorothy Miller,
Especially since the high school has
so many tuition pupils who remain at
school throughout the day. there has
lecn long felt the need of serving warm
lunches during the noon hour. An eX-
detrimental plan of serving these lunches
in the domestic science room Is to be
tried out this week, beginning Wednes-
day.
