THE groundwork for this play,
H. used against a man-to-man
defense, is laid as offensive players,
XII and KS, pass the ball back
and forth once or twice on their
way up court.
AS the play proper starts, XII re-
ceives the ball from X-3 and passes
quickly to X-2, who fakes giving it
to XII as the latter goes past him,
X-2 passes backhand to X-3, who
has pulled over to the right of the

day. It was decided to have one
large tree for which one set of

to be purchased from the junior

of each class exchanged names FOR
presents and if the boys and girls
care to give their gifts to the
poor, a basket will be set in the
hall where the gifts may be
placed. The exchanging of gifts
will take place Friday, December
20. After school. the electric lights
will be taken from the tree and
it will be given to a needy family.

cause untold harm. Bad Habits
are Like That!
