as gym period. But this would make
the ones who participated late for
their classes because of changing of
clothes, and make it difficult to get
their minds on their lessons the rest
of the afternoon.
Therefore, the activities period was
placed at the end of the day and
everyone seems very much satisfied
with this new arrangement. However,
the activities period is held only three
days a week; Monday, Wednesday and
Thursday and on the remaining days:
Tuesday and Friday, school is dismiss
ed at $40. There are a number of
games from which to choose: field
ball, soccer, touch football, touch
down pass, volley ball, soft ball (girls
and boys), table tennis, quoits, horse
shoes and dodge ball. There is also a
room where those who do not wish to
participate in any of the games may
go and sing, a room to play cards,
checkers, etc, and also room in which
to study.

The athletic period that has just
been started has also aroused the feel
ing of real school spirit among the
students.
In every game that the soccer team
participated the boys went on the
field with feeling and hopes of win
ming which helped greatly in bring
ing the county championship to P.
H. S. for the 1887 season.
School spirit not only refers to ath-
letics but also to the work done in
the class room. School spirit means
cooperation with your fellow class
mates.
FIELD BALL GAME
On Wednesday, November 10, the
Pocomoke girl field ball games came
to an end when they played the Snow
Hill girls for the county championship.
AS many have said, it was the tightest
and the most interesting game POGO
moke has even played. Both teams
were on the field to win, as it was
soon seen, and everyone put forth a
bigger and better effort than they
had ever done before.
During the first half of the game
the opposite side kept the ball in their
territory great deal of the half, the
home team was determined to get that
ball past the goal keeper and this they
did, thus ending the game by a score
of 2-2.
Should 1 say ending the game Many
of the players seemed to think it was
only the beginning. It was decided
that the tie should be played off by
playing two more four minute quar-
ters and this is when the real playing
was begun for everyone was already
tired.
During the first four minute quar-
ter the Snow Hill girls scored again,
thus making it AZ in their favor; but
at the beginning of the second. the
home team followed up with another
goal, tieing the score again, "A. This
extra playing had indeed taken great
deal of energy and all of the girls
were just about ready to fall on the
field but two more quarters had to
be played, so they tried their best to
keep on their feet.
The Snow Hill girls seemed to be
very anxious to get the game over
now as soon as possible so they ended
the game by scoring again thus leav-
ing the score Cd.
Both teams should be commented on
the fine playing they showed all dur
ing the game and you can rest assur-
ed they were stiff the next day after
playing almost 2 hours. During the
game the girls received many knocks,
scratches, and bruises but no matter
how hard they hurt, they did not let
this bother them while fighting for
their team.
Myrtle Matthews and Naomi Ennis
made the only two goals for POGO
moke.
LUNCH HOUR
Last week, with the aid of the
Student Council, a half-hour lunch
period was started instead of the usual
hour. The time left at the end of the
day, between $40 and $40, is to be
used as activities period.
The reason for this change was that
there was nothing interesting for the
children to do between 1890 and 100,
for nearly all of the town children
who went home to their lunch were
back by 1890. The Student Council
tried to think of some way in which
to use this spare time usefully.
First, it was thought, that the per-
iod beginning at 1890 could be used

Way to Kill Snakes

The elder Pliny wrote that snakes,
if spit upon, flee, and that human
saliva injected into their mouths
kills them. In her memoirs,
Madame Junot wife Of one of Ma
poleon's generals, writes that, when
Napoleon was in Cairo, Egypt, ne
was greatly alarmed by a serpent
seen in the house, A native snake
detector," sent for, soon found the
reptiles hiding place and by music
and charms induced it to come to
the center Of the room. There the
charmer suddenly seized it just be-
hind the head, forced its jaws open
and spat down its throat. Instantly,
the Duchess wrote, the snake gave
every evidence of death.

States Senator Frederick Van Nuys OF
Indiana. Mr.. Van Nuys is one Of the
Democratic Senators who opposed
President Roosevelt's court measure
The warning by Gov. Townsend
amounts to declaration that Senator
Van Nuys must not be renominated
| by the Democrats of Indiana next
| Spring Senator Van Nuys promptly
| accepted the challenge; he declared
that he would be candidate for re-
| nomination.
A National Struggle.
Here, then, in one State, is the pic
.ture Of the situation throughout the
country. 1t is fight between Demo-
Gratis who opposed Mr.. Roosevelt's s
court measure and those who insist
that every one in public life' must
give his earnest support to the
President" The outcome of this
struggle, in the Nation as whole,
will determine just about the whole
Of the political future, so far as it can
be seen until the outcome of the
struggle is known.
Let us now follow the steps of this
struggle as it will take place in In
diana. Indiana can serve as an Illus
tration of the, so to speak, mechanics
Of the struggle throughout the Nation.
Senator Van Nuys, in order to get
back to the Senate, must pass two
hurdles. First, he must get renomi-
nation by the Democratic party.
Second, he must be elected in the
general election.
First Hurdle Highest.
1t is the first hurdle that is the
most serious. Obviously Senator Van
Nuys is going to encounter formi-
dable, organized attempt to preven.
his denomination. The Democratic
Governor of the State says Mr.. Van
Nuys must not be renominated. That
means that the minor Democratic
State officials will oppose him. It
means the State Democratic organi-
zation will oppose him, the little local
party chieftains and workers in the
precincts and counties. Il say this as
highly probable assumption, though
I do not have personal knowledge of
the conditions in Indiana)
President Roosevelt will oppose him.
Whether Mr.. Roosevelt will oppose
him specifically by name will appear
later. 1t does not matter much
whether Mr.. Roosevelt does this or
not-everybody will know Mr.. Roose-
velt wants Senator Van Nuys to be
defeated for denomination. Because

COMPANY CHALLENGES
LABOR BOARDS POWER
Newport News Shipyard Holds It
Is Not Engaged in Interstate
Commerce.

BY the Associated Press.
NEWPORT NEWS, Va, August 81
james c. Paradise, examiner pre-
siding over the National Labor Rela-
tions Board hearing of union charges
against the Newport News Shipbuild-
ing g. Drydock Co., said he possibly
would reserve until the hearing is
ended his decision regarding the ques-
ton of the boards jurisdiction.
Counsel for the company had asked
for dismissal of the charges on the
grounds that the board had no juris-
diction because the concern was not
engaged in interstate commerce.
Paradise, who made his statement
after adjournment of yesterdays ses-
sion, made it plain he was not making
definite announcement.
Hearing of the charges the company
engaged in unfair labor practices,
brought by Philip Van Gelder, Cam
den, N. j., secretary-treasurer of the
Industrial Union of Marine and Ship
building Workers of America, c. I. O.
affiliate, was begun yesterday.
