The tournament at Laramie held
more interest for Hanna's younger set
this past week than anything going
on al home. In fact there was
nothing going on at home. Most
everyone who could get away went
to- the scene of the battle, at one
time or another during the week.
Friday, the schools were closed to
give the high school pupils a chance
to witness the finals. Our boys lost,
as you all know ere this, but we
are not discouraged and surely they
are not. The team is young, but
growing fast, in strength and ability
and the day will come when it will
be one of the top-notchers Of the
state. Amongst those who went to
Laramie during the week were Misses
Agnes Milliken, Bernice Peterson,
Betty Ireland, Frances Christensen,
Gertrude Bliss, Carol Weinbrandt,
Mrs. Gladys Rogers, Mrs. Roy Jack
son, Mrs. John Gabbott, Mrs. Hugh
Rennie, Mrs. s l. Rodda, Mrs. Mar
garet Milliken Hill, Messrs. w. S.
Milliken. j. H. Cook. Frank Rider Sr.
Frank Rider Jr., and a large number
of the high school students.
The athletic association, recently
formed, and composed of a group of
the younger men in town, gave its
first dance Saturday night at the
opera house. The dance was pre-
coded by several athletic stunts, the
chief feature being a boxing contest
participated in by the three Rimmer
boys, John Milliken, Jack Winward,
spec" Bohm, Percy Gaskell and the
two Anderson brothers. The men
who are promoting this club are
quite enthusiastic over its future
and feel much encouraged at the in
terest manifested. in it. II the plans
for a new opera house go through
as proposed, it is hoped that the old
building may be transformed into a
gymnasium, which would provide a
splendid setting for the events the
club expects to stage. The next con-
test will be put on about April 18th
and a number of the young aspirants
for fistic glory are training hard to
make this affair the success they
hope for.
