of their instructor, Miss Bennett. -Four
members of the Glee Club gave sew

complimented on the way in which he
kept the evening rolling along In
most jolly and entertaining fashion.

by the president, David Northam,
opening exercises being carried on by
the vice president, Archer Holloway.

POCOMOKE AT SNOW HILL
On Monday of last week Pocomoke's
soccer team came to Snow Hill where
they defeated the county seat boys

for the fourth time, could not get it's
: password clicking, but the backfield
was fairly successful in keeping the
ball in Pocomoke's territory. Late in
the second quarter Pocomoke scored
when the Snow Hill goal keeper kicked
the ball from the goal, striking Paxor
and rebounding through the goal. Ir
the third quarter Pocomoke scored
on some nice password by Allen anC
Paxson, Paxson scoring the goal. Snow
Hill wishes to extend it's congratula
tions to the new champions of Wor
cester County, Pocomoke. May they
have the best of luck in the play-of1
for state championship honors.
