HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Miss Addie Quessinberry who has
been teaching the fourth grade, has
accepted the position of Palmer pen
manship teacher in Hoquiam. Mrs.
C. W. McNamer is teaching the fourth
grade until the new teacher arrives.
Emery Goodman of Umapine has
entered high school as junior. The
High school assembly is now full and
all the class rooms are crowded to
their capicity because of the unusual
ly large enrolment this year.
Last Saturday, November 4, foot
ball game between Condor and Hepp-
ner was fought at the Gentry field.
The teams were about evenly match
ed and the score was tie-7-7. Elmer
Bucknum, Keith Logan, and Emery
Goodman played a very good game.
Paul Aiken also was good in the back
field. Condor had an excellent punter
and their score was largely due to
that fact. The addition of some new
men to our team has improved it in
weight and good playing. Those who
went to the game certainly got their
moneys worth.
A football game between Lexing-
ton and Heppner will be played at the
Gentry field Saturday Nov.11 1t is
sure to be a hard fought battle and
we'll worth going to.
A high school rally was held Fri
day, November 8. The largest number
of students that has ever turned out
at rally here appeared at the Tum-
alum corner promptly at 1880. The
students serpentined the streets,
stopping at every corner to give yells
and also went thru the show build
ing where short talks were made by
Retha Owen and Ray McDuffee soli-
citing the support of the people of
the town for the ball games. Then the
aggregation betook them selves to
the hill behind the schoolhouse where
a large pile of wood had been gather
ed by the Freshmen for bonfire.
In the genial glow of the large fire,
ames were played and speeches made.
Short but effective talks were made
by Coach Mather, Miss Frasier, Capt
Cason, Bill Gillian, Fay Ritchie, and
others. A very loyal spirit was arous-
ed among the students and they all
resolved to be loyal to the team
and back it up as much as possible.
The gathering was dispersed after
giving many yells and nine rahs for
the team.
A new constitution has been adopt
ed by the Student Body. Any mem
ber of the faculty or student who has
taxes is a member of the new Stu
dent Association and has vote in
its meetings. A student council made
up of the Student Body officers, the
class presidents. and the principal of
the High School has immediate charge
of the business of student activities
but is subject to Student Body. The
High School is properly launched on
its way toward bigger and better
association to control student activi-
ties.
