JUNIOR HIGH TRACK MEET.

Each year, when the High School
holds its annual county field meet, the
Junior High School also holds a sim
iliar meet with Troy and Eureka. This
meet is little different from the high
school meet, in that besides the boy
athletes, the girls also compete. Besides
,the athletic contest they also compete
with their rivals in mental events, hav-
ing arithmetic and spelling contests.
This year Eureka was the victor in
both the mental and physical sports It
is the first time in many years that
Eureka has won the contest in the
mental events ar1t Asbough they did win
this year we hope that next year will
show different story.
In the athletic events the boys and
girls did their very best, and that is all
anyone can possibly do. This also holds
true for those contesting in the mental
events
The points when totaled showed that
Eureka had "a; Libby, 77l2; and Troy,
