The 1888 track meet is over. Many
of the contestants will never
again participate in high school
meet. For them the losing of ii
seems particularly disappointing
Yet we feel that the cup went to
those who unquestionably had the
best team, and losing to such is nc
disgrace
Libby gained something from that
meet far greater than any silver
trophy. She again displayed
that particular brand of sportsman
ship which makes her teams good
losers as we'll as good winners
She saw that the members of such
teams, her graduates-to-be, who will
carry the principles learned in high
school wherever they go, will have
nothing to fear from the. battle OF
life-they can take it. =
Therefore it is not with great
regret that we view that defeat OF
last Saturday. Rather, we view il
as a great victory-a proving ground
for the training Libby High gives
its students-a test in which they
acquitted themselves gloriously
They proved that they can take q
licking and still come up smiling
ready for more. For such persons
with such an attitude, life can hold
no really discouraging defeats.

Three One-Act
PLAYS Presented

The annual one-act plays were
presented Friday at 800 in the jun
ior high auditorium
The Ring and the Look, a COM
edy presented by the freshman
class, directed by Miss Eldredge,
was first on the program. Bob Par
ker was quite at home in his role
as the much-pursued Tommy futile.
Bertha, the Tuttles' colored maid,
was a convincing mixture of Miriam
GooselaW, bandanna, and an ac-
cent. Big Sister" Jenny Rolseth,
took an active interest in brother
Tommy's seriously tangled love af-
fairs Paul Risley, as Billy Martin
Tommy's chum with the dramatic
urge and the appetite supplied
some of the plays best comedy.
Eleanor Rodgers was Tommy's
mother. Marjorie Ogle, Kathryn
Neils and June Hunter were bel
hgerent as determined girls fight
ing over Tommy's contested ring.
The sophomore play was a farce,
Yes Means No" also directed by
Miss Eldredge. The play was short
and fast-moving. Teddy Lawson
cock-sure young man just out of
college who attempted to run his
fathers business for half an hour
with near-disastrous results - was
played by Edward Woodruff. Mag
mar Ronning was affectionate and
fearful as Edith Merrill, TeddY,s fl
ar1cee. Kari klehm clustered about
as I. j. Morgan business associ-
ate of, Mr. Lawson's. Celia Nolop
was prim and business-like as Mr..
Lawson's broW-beaten secretary.
'Mangled Mangles," the play to
be taken to the State Little Theatre
Contest, was written and directed
by Mr.. Hayes. Beginning with a
discussion about new mangle and
clean shirt, Mr.. and Mrs. Paten
Sylvester, played by Shirley Brin-
ton and Edward Neils, with wild
eyed accusations and fearful pro-
tests, piled up all their belongings
in the middle of the floor to prove
which of the family spent the great
er part of the income Mary Cor
nell and Richard Neils as Mr.. and
Mrs. Ted Granite walked in and
found them in the midst of their
frenzied activities and almost sent
their furniture to the relief com
mittee. The fast-moving farce was
punctuated by blowout fuses and
the ensuing stumbling in the dark
The audience, although not noisy
in their approval Of the one acts
seemed to really enjoy them, and
appreciative chuckles were still
heard as the audience left the
building.
