This is the first time within
the history of the local high

Big Feature.
Another feature, and one that
was enjoyed was the yelling of
the high school body under the
leadership of their yell leader,
Burdette Belknap. Between half
they took possession of the
basket ball floor and for about
ten minutes entertained the
crowd present with their high
school yclls which brought forth
much applause. The high school
spirit as well as the spirit of the
town in general is exceptionally
keen this year.

ed the crack Nezperce team in
the high school gym Friday
evening in a game of basket ball
that brought the crowd of some
$50 spectators to their feet time
and again by specular playing
on the part of the Cottonwood
team.
The game started with a rush,
Cottonwood making the first
basket which brought the Cot
tonwood fans to their feet in a
unison and the noise that came
forth from these $50 throats
could be heard all over the city.
The Nezperce team for a few
minutes in the early stages of
the game had the lead but this
was soon overcome by the Cot
tonwood boys and at no time was
the outcome of the contest in
doubt after the first quarter.
The. first nalf ended with Cot
tonwood leading by 4 score of %
to IL. In the second half the
Nezperce boys appeared lost and
their team work was poor. 1t
was during this half that the
local boys executed team work,
keeping the ball in the air almost
continuously by clever passing.
The lineups were:

Twas cold and white on Christmas night,
When Mary gave to earth
The Son of Man and angels sang
OF the Infant Jesus birth.
This mother mild adored the child;
And with gifts from afar,
Came three wise men from Bethlehem
By following star
And worshipped there the old and fair
As one before the Lord.
The rich. the poor, the maiden pure,
In unison adored.
The hangers hay on which He lay,
The shed that sheltered Him,
The open walls, the broken stalls
Were given not by men.
We now revere the maiden dear
OF whom the angels sing
Her Son adore all else before,
Our Savior and our King.
