Looking into the Junior High
Gym last Friday night you would
have seen a colorful noisy and hap
py crowd having a grand time at
the third annual school carnival.
The money raised by these carni-
walls has been used by the school for
improvements in the various activ-
tiles of the school. This years
money will be used to buy musical
instruments and for securing an
additional lyceum or two. The car
nival was a great success and
every one there had a grand time
going through the hall Of terrors,
buying at the country store, footing
horns and wearing silly hats. The
Tom Thumb show and the one-act
play were both very good and fur
nished many laughs, also the ath-
letic shows and the hamburger,
pop, and candy stands were not to
be overlooked. Then, If the noise
and crowd got too much for you
there was the tea room which was
restful and you could have your
fortune told. The high spot of the
evening was the browning of Faye
Sprague, the queen. The grand
march followed with Faye Sprague,
the queen, and Robert Rydholm,
the senior class president, leading;
then followed the other three candi-
dates and their escorts; then the
senior high and the junior high.
This led into an evening of dancing.
SPORTS
: Sank Centre beat Long Prairie
by exactly the same margin that
the Prairies beat them; 8 points.
And Osakis beat Sank Centre by
the identical score that Sank Cen
tire beat Osakis some time before,
II to IA. Which just adds to the hec-
tic season that Sank Centre has had
this year. The local high school
basketball team has almost upset
everything, including the old law
of averages" No law Of averages
will allow a team to miss so many
shots in a series of games. They've
got to hit sometime, and if you ask
me they are going to hit their shots
at the District tournament. Now
Sank Centre is rather a weak team
in this district, according to most
experts" but you mark my words
some surprises are going to be
sprung before the season is over,
one of which will be when Sank
Centre beats Alexandria. It'll be
hard to do but they are going to do
it.
If you didn't see some of the per-
formances of the athletic show at
the high school carnival you missed
something. 1t was much like Golden
Glove tournament fights. Each bout
was well-matched giving the specta-
tors something worth the admis-
sion.
Somebody predicted that Harry
Thomas, Eagle Bend heavyweight,
would retire from the ring after his
bout with James Adamick in New
York last Friday. Thomas is getting
old and baseball took too much out
of him. He might have been a bet
ter fighter if it were not for the
baseball playing.
Did you know that the mighty
Crosby-Ironton basketball team had
a hard time beating Little Falls last
week, 40 to 81 =. st. Cloud Tech
made up for the time Alex beat
them 26 to "a by trouncing the Alex
cagers So to Is and Alex brag-
ged a great deal over that 2 point
win over the T-men . e. w. o.
son ought to be run out Of town or
sumthin the first time he miss
ed an Osakis-Sauk Centre basket
ball game in 7 or 8 years was the
first time that Osakis won in an
equal number Of years last
week we wondered about the non
appearance of the annual football
banquet This week we learned
that a banquet, much more elabor-
ate, will be held in the spring in
which all high school athletics will
be represented Sank Centre
should be beat bad by Glenwood to-
morrow night but then my re-
putation as a predicter-oughter Is
nil.
