A NOTE OF GRATITUDE TO OUR

Seth Butler lost his last mare last
Wednesday, and with the assistance
of our dear Cokesbury friends and
Mr. Harry Landlords great help and
his friends. Mr.. Landlord brought US
nice mare Sunday, the 18th, which
we highly appreciate in our old days.
Our Coksbury friends having collect
ed SIS towards getting us horse al
so made us a present of the same to-
ward payment of a hog we had en-
gagged; we consider both wonderful
Christmas presents from our dear
friends with thousands of thanks to
you all; we hardly know how to ex-
press our gratefulness to you all.
Yours very truly,

College basket ball has begun to
spt ed up, altho' it will not get to go
ing strong till after the Christmas
holidays. Blue Ridge and Washing
ton Colleges staged a spirited con-
test last week and the latter, state
champions, managed to emerge on
the long end, tho the first half ended
with both teams having scored eight
points. Washington will miss McGran
and Bankter this year, but with Car
roll, Dumschott, and Fiore there to
steady the new additions to the first
string, they should make it difficult
for most of their opponents to win.
The "Flying Pentagon" will, how
ever, lack the finish and wonderful
playing ability with the loss it has
sustained in the person of the two
players mentioned, and no one need
be surprised to see them dropping
some of their games, since the ma
jority of the State institutions have
strong quints.

Berlaubach outpointed Delaney in
their set-to last week. This was some
what of a surprise, as Berlaubach
was supposed to win, if at all, by hur-
ricane attack, making skillful boxing
a secondary consideration. Delaney
was supposed to be more clever with
lis fists, and if any out-pointing was
to be done, he was the one looked for
to win. 1t was gruelling contest.
Each scored a knock down, and the de-
cision did not meet with universal ap-
prevail. The two fighters will prob
