Last Friday mighty was gala one for
| us. We have been impatiently waiting
| for the game with Nelson and are now
| very happy, thanks to our basket ball
confident of victory. but were disap-
| pointed However tine two teams were
| very evenly matched the game was
fast and exciting. The score at the end
| of the first half was % TO Is in our favor.
Nelson worked harder and faster the
second half, holding Oroville down to
only two baskets more than they. The
final score was Oroville AZ. Nelson 80.

the absence of any Ill feeling. Both teams
were always happy and courteous. A

Burnham II; Rose rg; Priest lg; F. Burn
ham and Keyes subs.

After the game feed was served to
both teams and all Nelson rooters.
On Friday, January H. the team will
play Tonasket on their floor 1t is hoped
we mad add another victory to the list.
A large crowd of rooters is needed so it
is hoped that many Orovillians will at
tend, in spite of the mud and rain
The boys physical training class has
been changed from 3:15 to 900. 1t seems
that too many boys were needed at home
to split wood or some other necessary
evil.
The Frosh held class meeting last
week for some unknown reason and are
none the wiser themselves, for no busi-
ness was transacted. The reason was
only this: the children were so noisy that
Fern could not make herself heard. Per-
haps all the teachers can gather with
them next time to KEEP order.
Last Friday night before the Nelson
game, the Midgets played the Scrub team
n game of basket ball. The Scrubs evil
IDENTIFY were scrubs in name only for they
had the big end of the score with 10 to
II in their favor. The Midgets hope to
play again soon and redeem their good
name
The Sophs will hold a meeting Wednes-
day to make plans for the Soph party to
be given at the home of Marjorie Reed.
The Frosh are going to give the Sophs

The Seniors have been racking their
overtaxed brains trying to get in their
book reports and LONG essays, before
the end of the semester We all know
what that last minute rush means, and
can easily sympathiZe with them.
We notice that some Of our New Years
resolutions were misprinted in last weeks
