We lost the game with Goldendale
last Friday, "a to 6. More accidents
occurred at this game than in all the
other games put together. Fred
Pages car lost a wheel between Hood
River and The Dalles, thus causing
delay. The game was scheduled for
2.30, and as this car load did not get
there until 3 o'clock they went on the
field without their dinner. About eight
minutes after the game started Leon
ard Thomson was taken off the field
because of cracked ankle bone. Joe
Issel and Clifford Greene we're also
knocked out before the end of the first
half. The score tied until the end of
the first half but then the Goldendale
team began to gain.
The seniors were hosts at Hallow-
'een party given at the high school
last Friday evening. The 200 students
who attended reported a fine time.
Ghosts met the guests at the basement
door and took them through the dark
hall over bed springs, old shoes and
other mysterious things. The decora-
tions were beautiful and appropriate
for the occasion. After general for
tune-telling stunts those who cared to
dance assembled in the auditorium and
the others gathered in the domestic art
room to play games. For refreshments
cider and owl cookies with raisin eyes
were served.
The paper drive by pupils of the
Park Street school closed last week
when they realized $50 for their sef-
forts. This week the pupils TO the
junior high are continuing the search
for old papers and magazines and are
being rewarded with liberal findings.
If you have old newspapers, magazines,
old books, please phone to Junior
High, 2762, and student will call for
your lot.
A very painful and somewhat disfig-
uring accident happened to two high
school students last Friday when the |
flivver containing Paul Friday and |
Louise jenkins was wrecked because |
OF defective steering wheel and no
brakes as they were returning from |
the West Side with autumn leaves dec
roations for the senior class party. |
The front wheels buckled under and /
when the car swerved to the rocks
along the roadside, the occupants were
catapulted through the wind shield and
were badly cut about the face and head
by the glass. Principal Critics took
the wounded pupils to the Cottage hos
pital where their wounds were dressed. |
At the same time that Mr.. Critics was
caring for these pupils, Supt. Cannon
Park Street school where he had in
jured his knee playing football.
This Friday Coach Keeney takes his
football warriors to Dufur to meet a
husky bunch there. Several students

Caoch Keeney, and several Of the play

faithfully trying to get in shape for |
