EDITORIAL
By Don Peter

Kennewick high school has al
WAYS ranked comparatively high
in athletics. We have had some OF
the best coaches that were obtain
able to train our boys and drill
them into balanced machine that
was often capable of defeating
teams from much larger schools
than ours.
What are athletics for? Why 40
we have them? The answer Is that
athletics makes one strong physi-
caIly; gives him quicker mind
and helps him in many ways to
live better in later life, has always
been stoutly defended by coaches
and the active players.
But who receives the benefits
of athletics? 1t is the boys who
have nothing else to do. 1t is the
ones who are for the most part
already physically fit. The rest of
the students, the ones who do most
of the studying get no benefit out
Of athletics at all. There are very
few boys who do not like most
sports but very few ever get a
chance to take part in an athletic
contest. 1t is not because they do
not want to that they do not play
football and basketball-it is be-
cause they haven't the time to do
so. They must spend their time
after school working, usually at
home. Of course there are always
a few who do nothing but waste
their time around the pool halls,
etc. But those unfortunates are
not included with the majority.
Why not encourage more inter
class athletics? The only inter
class affairs we now have are the
few basketball games and the de-
bates. Why not encourage more
action among the classes? Provide
a time such as the noon hour and
have the coaches teach the boys
then. Such plan is entirely pos
sible and ought to be tried out. If,
as the authorities say. athletics
are so beneficial and so desirable
why not arrange time So that
the ones who really need exercise
and the ones who want it can get
it?
If athletics are merely for the
ones who are already the most
physically fit Or for the ones who
have nothing else to do, then ath-
letics is a failure in so far as the
mental development of the stud
ents is concerned.

She will no longer be able to dec

it was discovered that there were
just enough dishes and silverware

meal. Therefore, we come to an
other conclusion: There were three

HANFORD DEBATE

Arthur Carpenter, Ted Flesher
and Chester Cox. the members of
the Kennewick debate team, went
to Hanford last Friday. The sub
ject was the Federal Restriction
of Child Labor. Kennewick upheld
the negative side of the question.
The debators were very, much in
spired by being given dinner at
the hotel and then sitting from
1880 to 1890 watching "wild
west" five reel show and three
comedies before the debate. They
won of course.
Miss Bonner and Miss Anderson
enjoyed the trip also. They report
that they were tempted to use
"Galacite" in the radiator when
they ran out of water. When they
finally reached water supply they
had to wait several minutes for a
bucket to fill as it was, as the
driver stated. a ''seven year fauc-

With the high hopes and great
confidence related in our last issue
in their possession, Kennewick's
baseball team journeyed to Han
ford only to start the season in a
highly disappointing manner by
taking an 81 defeat.
Kennewick just couldn't hit. Al
tho the team made several errors
at critical times, Hanford would
have too. if the Kennewick play
ers had not struck out so often.
Both teams supported their pitch
ers poorly but Kennewick was by
far the worst.
Lincoln pitched a good game for
Kennewick allowing six hits to
eight allowed by the Hanford
pitcher and struck out eight Of
their batters but he was not so
strong i'm the pinches.
The team is far from discourage
ed from its showing however, and
is looking forward to the next
game and is determined to avenge
this first defeat. Hudnall will pro-
badly pitch and the added practice
will probably make the team in
vincible.
