of Education gave mc.. the opportunity
to attend high school in the evening
while employed during the day.
But why are not our night high
schools open for longer period than
March? Why not keep them open until
at least the middle Of May. thus putin
them on a more equa, basis with the
day high schools? Open only three
nights per week. of two hours each, It
follows that certain subjects must Of
necessity be shortened.
An extension Of the night school term
till say the second or third week Of May
would tend to make the night school
course almost like that Of the day
school. Already q few cities, including
New York. have recognized this and
have heightened thcit night school term
to equalize It more with the day schools.
Philadelphia. long recognized for her
fine educational system and other in
stitutions Of learning. should not permit
herself to lag behind in this important
respect. II. X.

GIANTS LEADER
GATHERS SQUAD
John McGraw Expects To Have
Best Team Of His Life This
Season

New York. Feb. John NcGraw,
leader OF the world champion Giants,
has gathered a great squad for the
1929 campaign. but he is best with
worry tha' never bothered him before
he parted with George Burns.
Yes. McGraw said before he left
for Cuba several days ago, yes, tell
me when I'll use Tor I !ead-ofr man.
We got pl nty Of hard hitters. includ-
ing GrOh, Frisch. and Young, but
want TO use EN- in the cleanup spots.
Groh has had lead-of experience, but
when he swings at ball he seldom
misses. II ed him at bat when men
ar on the bases
McGraw said he thought Frisch. n
free hitter, was best suited for the
third or fourth niche, and that Young
was always good somewhere round
the cleanup position. This leaves
Bancroft as a possible lead-off man,
for Meusel and Kelly are not being
considered, and the Giant leader
doesn't want to take a chance on any
OF the new men.
So it's a tossup between Groh and
Bancroft.

EVERETT REPLIES TO
A. S. DIAPERS LETTER

In letter mailed Tuesday to A. S.
Draper, principal of the Leesburg
High School, replying to a commune
cation relative to the basketball game
called at Leesburg by Mr. Draper G.
E. Everett of the Lakeland High
School defends the local players from
the charges alleged against them and
completely eXonerates them from the
impuation of unfair playing.
Mr.. Everetts letter follows:
January 81, 1922
Mr.. A. S. Draper.
Leesburg, Fla.
Dear Sir:
have delayed answering your re-
cent open letter because the carbon
copy you sent we was so dim that
could not read it From the letter
published in the Lakeland Evening
Telegram. ! notice that you complain
of the following:
Swearing.
Striking one of your players.
Meals
Eligibility of Gillespie.
1t is not my desire to engage in a
controversy with anyone. but l feel
at large demands that I do not let
these unfair charges pass without a
protest. 1t is true that did not get
on the court during the game (and
have to be put off twice by the
referee), but l was standing as close
to it as the rules permit and I never
heard an oath during the entire game.
/ have on my desk before me the
sworn statement of one dozen prom
inent Lakeland citizens-including
/ the chairman of the Polk county
Board of Education and one of the
owners of the Evening Telegram
that none of them heard an oath.
One of my boys did strike one of
your players, but it was after he had
been struck by one of your boys. I
saw this myself. l have the sworn
statement of a number of citizens that
they too saw your boy strike our
player first.
If you will ask your captain he will
tell you why your team was limited to
fifty centmeal
The eligibility of Gillespie is q mat
ter that the State oBard of Control
will have to decide.
WANT 10 cdll your ATTENTION 10 TWO
other mistakes in your letter. You
said that you had our team "Bested,
MINDED and Beaten" Bested and
winded are relative terms, but the
score book shows that our boys were
ahead all the time. Instead of your
calling the game soon after the second
half commenced you called it three
minutes before the last half was up.
Assuring you that the Lakeland cit
liens, the high school faculty, and the
entire student body stand for clean
athletics, fair play, and thruthfulness
l am,
Very truly yours,
G. E. EVERETT.
Moral-Before throwing stones you
should get out from behind the show
