EDITORIAL
It was beat Alex" day in Sank
Centre last Friday, the whole Jun
ior and Senior High were all pep
ped" up to go to Alexandria and
sweep them off their feet. For a
week before the Alex game the as
sembly was decorated with maroon
and white and in front of the as
sembly hung a dummy represent
ing the hanging OF Alex. On Friday
morning a program was put on,
most of it concerning the coming
football game A part of the pro-
gram was a humorous Shakes
pearian drama by members Of Miss
Wilson's fourth period English
class. A new school song, written
by two Senior boys, Ray Fish and
Robert Rydholm, was introduced ;
then the assembly sang the song
with much enthusiasm. After the
program everyone was ready to go
to Alex and come back with vic
tory.
Fine school spirit" was bowed
by all the school in the way they
cheered the team on, by the pro-
gram and the way they piled into
the two school buses that took the
pupils to Alex for the game. Even
though some could not go they
were thinking of the team and
wishing them luck.
SPORTS
According to scores the 1887 foot
ball season was rather unfavorable,
but those who saw a greater part
of the games know that the season
was success, The total games net
ted 6 losses and 2 wins,
A brand new coach and a brand
new team represent the coming
basketball season, besides several
different teams to meet that Sank
Centre has not met before.
This Gene Red" Cokeley, half
back on the Sank Centre football
team, is quite a fellow. He has a
very good knack for argument or
debate. He can be drawn into an
argument very easily and usually
wins. When stressing a point he
rattles off teams, statements, stat
istics, etc., with the rapidity of an
auctioneer. But strictly speaking
he has a very good sense Of humor,
he likes to play football, and does
it very efficiently.
Hillary Egan, disabled tackle, is
usually on the other side of debates
with Red" Cokeley. He also has an
LII
ally his hero" is Harold Van
Every, backfield ace on the Mime
sofa football team.
Often the Sank Centre football
team members gather together af-
ter games to discuss defects and
good points of particular players.
1t is then that arguments are in
progress and these become very in
teresting to witness.
Talk about sacrifices-Joe Beste
of the Sank Centre football team
surely made the biggest that any
boy can make to hold a berth on a
football team. Since the beg inning
of the season Joe walked home Che
lives on a farm after every prac-
tice, a total of five miles each time
Maybe the whole team ought to
have done that, it seemed to make
a very good player out of Beste
Each night for eight weeks five
miles per night makes aproxi-
mately 200 miles since the start OF
the season, sacrifice few would
endure to play football. He has
done this without Dragging or ex-
pecting any praise for it.
Believe it or not-records were
broken at the Alexandria-Sauk Cen
