Trail of Hares to
Williams Field Picnic

With us girls and faculty mem
bers participating in the annual hare
and hound chase for the girls of the
four classes of Cony High school
held Friday afternoon, was not only
q most enjoyable event, but was also
successful in that it was an excel
lent agency for acquainting the girls
with each other. There were many
features of the chase yesterday
which made every minute pleasur-
able, and q pleasanter day could not
have been ordered than that which
graced the occasion. The clear cool
October afternoon was conducive to
glowing cheeks, and a full enjoyment
OF the hikes over various routes by
the four classes.
The "hares" of all four classes,
each group accompanied by facul-
ty member. left the high school early
in the afternoon and left a trail of
colored bits of paper and chalk
marks for the hounds. which made up
the larger groups of girls to follow
to- the objective. The seniors and
juniors proceeded over courses on

"hares" over devious courses on the

most elusive of the four groups and
by the water ruse nearly threw their
pursuers off the scent. The sopho-
more trail was plainly Indicated
through the business section Of the
city and on to Hallowell and the
ferry slip, where the hounds resort

the river and then followed the trail
back up the east side to Williams

quarry just in time to participate in
the repast.
