Everything in General.
Uncle Dave says the water for the
showers is hotter than ever and that
everybody ought to take advantage OF
an opportunity to get clean once
One day last week Jack Donnelly,
Kewpie Evans and Chef Silva were all
down in the individual exercise room
pounding on each other. Jack was the
instructor and Chef and Kewpie We're
on the receiving end of information.
The result is that Kewpie is getting
better each day.
The older boys conference is gone,
but the three days OF activities have
not been forgotten. On Saturday of
the conference the instructor, with the
assistance of Coach Banks, of high
school, demonstrated some games with
conference boys taking part and
watching also. Some new games of
crowd ball and kick ball were played,
along with some relay races. AT the
end the boys taking part had a good
old time shoe mixing contest The
winner was given one ticket to the
high school Brewton game.
Nearly all of the boys who took
part in the Rotary demonstration on
Tuesday were trained on the gym,
and they will sure get some benefit
from the Rotary clubs gift to them.
