HIGH SCHOOL LOSES
GAME TO AVON.

|L"H- NEI4aeAEsE
On last Friday afternoon the Scot
land High School team lost the base
ball game to Avon by the score of 10
to s. We say Avon and not Avon
High School because several of the
PLAYERS wsre outside men and not
ones who attended school there at all.
When the game was scheduled it
was understood that all players were
to be boys who attended school. Lat
er someone from Avon called up by
phone and said they would have to
PLAY one or two outsiders On their
team that day. The game had been
advertised no on they came with q
few boys of High School and mostly
others. During the same ia ques-
tioning some Of the players it was
amusing the various answers that q
person would receive relative to the
same players. Evidently they had
net keen p.orc-!; :nsc-m.a she.
to say in case they were questioned.
One would tell you that the boy had
been going to school there all his
life. Another would say "He has
been in Avon during the last year.
Still another would say, "He does
not attend school now he graduated
last year." Avon won the game and
no one denies it but by foul and un-
demanded means saying that they had
no one else in their school who could
pay ball. Well if such is the case
we feel sorry for them but cant
quite swallow their salve.
The game was very interesting
throughout. AS a whole good ball
waa played by all the boys altho some
bad plays were made on both sides.
The crowd of fans who witnessed the
game we're wild at times and display.
ed great powers as base ball r~ootere.
Scotland bad about the same boys ir
the game that we have had in all
other games. Ed. Treick gave very
good satisfaction in the umpire's box.

tions FOR the future. When the party
broke up oil agreed that the Juniors
were trumps. The word Juniors %
here used should include Miss Levoy,
their class teacher, who worked very
laboriously with the few members of
the claes to make the banquet of
1870 q success. Every one present
will testify to this fact before any
court or tribunal and give the jun

The Junior class of S. H. S. got
back to pre-war conditions and gave
the class of 1920 an elaborate ban.
quet at the Pr esbyterian Church last
Friday evening, May z. 1920. The
decorations were verv appropriate for
the occasion; blue and white being
Senior colors were used throughout.
Blue bird place cards designated the
seating of each person, and blue and
white prevailed in table and wall dec.
orations.
The Seniors with their class, teach.
er came in a body at 7:45. In a few
moments the two classes were seated
AMI partaking of a splendid four
course banquet which would do justice
to the High Four Hundred. The food
was so good that quite a few of those
present filed the "bread basket to
overlooking judging from the way
they labored in getting up from the
table.
After appstites had been satisfied
minds were filled next BY means of
toasts The Junior President, Otti.
liza Brosz. in her own toast "To the
Seniors" heartily welcomed them
guests of the evening and iamenied
their leaving because OF the lose it
meant 10 S. H. S. III p,ankks, athlet.
les and scholarship. The Senior pres.
ident, Amy Brown in behalf of her
class thanked the faithful juniors for
a very pleasant evening, reviewed in
brief the joys and sorrows of H. S.
days and concluded by wishing the
hostesses as much joy and good luck
as possible. The Juniors had decid-
ed that the evening would not be
complete without some account of the
Senior pranks 80 one of their number,
Pearl Hird. gave away so many state
secrets that the Seniors 5lushed and
the rest had a good laugh at their ex-
pense. Walter Treick, after assur-
ing the company that he didn't par
ticuIarly want to talk and therefore
was quite sober, spoke of the various
"School Activities including athlet-
les, carnivals, and other kinds of
school entertainments. As our toast
mistress, Ottilia, asked Florence
Harris to give a toast on "Our Mis-.
takes" she remarked that ever Sen.
iors made such things. But Florence
cleverly turned the tables, declared
that her class was infallible, and
ended by %recounting some of the mis-
takes of really green elssaes.
Edith Dawson was introduced to
speak on the topic "On the Outside
Looking In" She noted that from
the inside of High School the outside
looked very bright and Cutlery but
that now as the time drew near that
would put them oz the outside lock.

much and sadness was taking the
place of joy. 1t is human nature tn

Williams toast on Prospects" gave
food for thought in addition to many
! helpful suggestions to all, especially
the Seniors. He reminded all that
/ they were "~prospectors" in this
world and admonished all prospectore
to be prepared, to be ready to take
up the small things as stepping
stones to the big ones, and to be ever
altruistic, considering others more
than self.
