High School Notes

The Marianna High School foot ball team has made very good record this year Last year the ashamed of themselves and started first game was with Forrest City, and our team was defeated 26 to 6. The second game was with Earle and again our team was de- feated 33-0. This was the largest score ever made on the M. H. s. football team. The third game Marianna went to Clarendon and slept all through the game and couldn't wake up until it was too late. But when they did get on their feet they pushed Clarendon right to the goal and the time was up just. in time for Clarendon. Marianna was sure to go over. This score was 60 in Clarendon's fa- vor.
 The game with Clarendon was the turning point with the Marianna football team for the next was with West Helena and Marianna won, 104-O. Clarendon then asked us for a return game and we returned it 600. Marianne was then on her feet, but just as we were get ting a good start we lost game to Forrest City, 20-13.
 Earle had planned a game and had it advertised when the .oppos.- ing team backed out on them. They called us on Wednesday to come up there on Friday, as they had gone to so much expense. So we went to Earle with our minds made up to beat them if it took the last bone in our bodies. And with this determination we defeated the un- conquerable by score of 20.
 Earle has played five games this season and won four, Marianna be- ing the only team to beat her. Christian Brothers College of Mem phis tied the score with Earle 13- Is.
 Our last game was with Helena Thanksgiving Day and we won the game by score of 26-0.
 Our captain for the season was Lawson and although he was crip- pied in the first game with Earle, he was always with us and out to practice every afternoon. Goodwin will lead the team Through the. lines next season.
 The Marianna High School wishes to thank the town for the interest they have taken in our athletics and we intend to furnish as good, if not better, basketball team than we did in football. We also wish to thank Rev. R. V. Saylor and Dr. McLen- don for the interest they have talk en in our athletic work. Both men came out while we were practicing and got in the dirt with us and gave us some good points that help ed us win the five out of nine games played.

Lee County to HaUe
 Game and Fish LdlU

A movement is on foot, backed by practically all of the sportsmen of the county, to have special local act passed by the next general as sembly for the protection of the game and fish in Lee county. The general law now in effect does not afford anything like adequate pro- tection to the wild life and to the game fish in the lakes and rivers of the county. There is so much op- position in the hill counties to a drastic conservation law that the representatives from the Eastern Arkansas counties have not been able to place upon the statute books a law that has any teeth in it. Lee county is one of the very few re- maining counties in the state where there is much game and fish and it is proposed to see that market hunters and fishermen are not per mitted to deplete the forests of the deer and turkeys, and the waters of the game fish. Under the pro- posed local act commission will be created for Lee county and pro visions will be made for the regu- lar employment of warden whose sole duty it will be to look after the enforcement of the game and fish law as it applies to Lee county.
