selling of hats was the. main feat
ure of the play. One character
wanted a SIS hat reduced to $3.50.
This was hard to explain to the
clerk.
The entire student body consider
that they had great treat
Freshies Fall Before Seniors.
The Freshmen lost the third
game of the series when they fell
before the Senior team by the
score of 13 to %. The first half
started with a snap. Both teams
were in good condition and eager
to trounce the other. The game
had not progressed long, however,
before the Seniors took the lead
which they kept throughout the
game Only once or twice were
the Seniors in serious danger. With
the exception of these few times
the Seniors had the ball in their
territory Both teams deserve
credit for the way they conducted
themselves during the time of play.
The young Freshmen showed up
admirably well although they lost
the game, and deserve credit for
their true craftsmanship and 10y
atty to their class.
This game eliminated the Fresh
men from taking pars in the finai
games but we must also note that
the Freshmen went one better than
the Freshmen of last year as they
were defeated in every game.

Did you ever know that the bet
ter you behave the more privileges
you have? Why do our principal
and teachers always have to lay
down rules and regulations? Ask
yourself these questions, don't for
get about them but ponder on them
a while. The whole high school is
blamed for what few people do
