On Wednesday night of last week
the girls and boys basket ball teams
of 1rondale played the girls basket
ball team of the high school, and the
boys team of the grade here. Our
girls won but our boys lost as the
high school boys of Irondale were too
large for them. On Friday evening
the girls and boys of the eighth grade
journeyed to Desloge. where they
played the 9Th grade girls and boys,
and both Of our teams lost. The De-
Soto girls and boys of the high school
played the high school boys here, and
again both of our teams lost. DeSoto
boys are very fast bunch of players,
and as one of Leadwood's main play
ers has been out of the game for over
a month on account of lame leg,
weakened our team quite a bit. Other
wise we believe we would have won.
At the game Wednesday night. which
was free to all, some of the boys here
in town got little rough and raised
a fight with some of the Irondale
boys. The board of education had
three of the boys arrested for dis
turbing the peace and they will be
tried in few days. The public is in
vited to all the school activities, but
all must conduct themselves in a
gentlemanly manner.
At the regular meeting of the
Board of Education last Thursday
night, the members and their wives
entertained the school faculty. Every
member of the faculty was present
and after the order of business was
gone over and the speech making was
over. to which each member of the
faculty contributed a part as well as
each member f the board, light re-
freshments were served The Board
of education has planned such meet
ings at the beginning of each quarter,
so as to keep in closer touch with the
needs of the school. 1t was further
decided that two members of the
board shall visit the schools for one
day each month, and to back up the
faculty in any way that will be for
the best interests of the school. We
believe that we have a good faculty
as any in the county, and their work
is very satisfactory.
Mr.. and Mrs. S. E. Williams were
visiting in Bonnie Terre Saturday.
