One of the best games of the sea-
son was played Friday afternoon at
Jerome. From the kick off, Shoshone
carried the ball within striking dis
tance of Jerome's goal where they
lost it on downs. Jerome, playing
defensive game, kicked and again the
locals battered their way to the five
ward line only to lose it when the Je-
rome line held. During nine-tentns
of the first half the ball was from
five to twenty yards Of the opposing
goal but Shoshone was unable to de-
liver the final punch to put 1t over.
In the second half Jerome recovered
their own kick off and for the flrst
time In the game the ball was en-
shoshone's twenty-yard line. sh'-
shone was given 5-yard penalty and
bv mass formation jerome carried the
ball over on the last down. Again
sboshone took the offensive and dur
ing the rest Of the quarter were bat
tering hard to put the ball over Je-
rome's goal line. During the last
quarter shoshone began going 90

through a labryinth OF white OBJECTS
under a ladder where they were
sprinkled with water from the UNDER

weary ones were led into place OF
the communion of spirits. Through
a medium, the seniors and faculty
learned their fates. Following this
ghost from the Land Of Torment
told the story of her life which was
the story of the Black Cat by Poe.
The Seniors were given mystic warn

and the spirits vanished and the un-
fortunate Seniors and faculty were
given the permission to unmask and
dance. Following this refreshments
were served. But you can't make
Senior believe there are no ghosts
