SPORTS
Melrose was still "old fighting
Melrose" when Sank Centre played
them last Friday. Each year when
Sank Centre meets Melrose both
teams dig in a little deeper and
fight a little bit harder than in
other games. And Sank Centre lost
by a score of 35 to Is. (Dont let
that score fool you too much)
Strange as it may seem there
were only two penalties inflicted
during this game. One on Sank
Centre for off-side, and one on
Melrose for tripping.

Prairie on Friday, Oct. 8. In the
closing minutes of the game Coach
Harvey, feeling need for encour-
aging the fellows on the team, yell

boys, the game isn't over YETI Lit
tie James Venner, sub scrub, piped
up from down the bench Always:
yeah, but it's darn near" That
really irked Harvey.
Speaking of encouragement, Har-

on the sidelines, to set up a chat

the field seemed to be a bit down.
cast. It seems to be good idea
Only one game left to play in the
football season and would advise
everyone who can possibly make 1t,
to travel to Alexandria next Friday
and witness this final clash. The
game will be played under the
lights. Alex has a very good outfit,
rated fourth in the Central Six
Conference, but as Gene Cokely
would say, Were cunning for
'em!" All this week the student
body at the school will be remind
ed of the Alexandria game by dec
orations in the assembly; and by a
program on Friday morning. This
week may also be known as BEAT
Alexandria week. The slogan is
Hang Alex"
Boy did we get fooled :. Thought
Notre Dame was over rated and
placed a 1Oc bet on Minnesota to
win by 20 points. Will know better
next time. So will several other
people know.
Many people wonder just what a
high school players average daily
routine is like. In colleges or uni
versities football effects the life OF
the players much more than 1t does
the high school player. In high
school there is no training table or
no set list of rules which must be
strictly obeyed. The high school
football player leads a school life
almost exactly as any student. He
comes to school in the morning,
goes to classes and is not reminded
of football until after he comes
back from dinner at 1890 when
there is skill practice at which
all the boys are outlined and new
rules gone over and other necessary
football education other than the
physical. At $3.50 the squad mem
bers leave their classes and go to
the locker rooms to dress for prac-
tice. This leaving of all the play
ers at one time, is often referred to
as the Laundering Herd" be
cause of the racket raised by the
burly heavy boys walking. At 400
a bus picks up the players and
takes them out to the field where
real practice begins. Practice us
ually lasts to 600 when the boys
are again picked up by the bus and
escorted back to the locker rooms.
Thursday night is the rest night
with only light practice. And OF
course Friday is the game. After
supper the players like to attend a
movie or chew the chin at some
favorite hangout.
Here's hoping Sank Centre beats
Alexandria :. :. and Minnesota beats
Iowa.
THISN THAT ABOUT SENIOR

Last June Tom Brown won q
contest sponsored by the Interna-
tional Business Machine Company.
In relation to this contest the
school recently received an electric
typewriter. This typewriter is run
by electricity and has a motor that
controls all the action. This mach
inc resembles an ordinary type
writer in almost every respect, ex-
cept the keyboard. which is slight
ly changed. The impression Of the

the back of the machine.
Friday at 10:45 the Junior High
School invited the Senior High
School to a program in the gymna-
