Cooper and Niven
In Stirring Picture

Gary Cooper, Andrea Leeds and
David Niven are the trio of stars
who head the top-notch cast of
Samuel Goldwyn's The Real Clio.
ry,' the exciting and fast-moving
adventure drama. Cooper plays
strong, herman role with his usual
fine flair for acting and timing. Miss
Leeds is excellent as the romantic
heroine, and Niven, who has been
climbing to stardom by leaps and
bounds, turns in an all-around STIR
ring performance.
Henry Hathaway directed "The
Real Glory" with plenty of excite
ment and gun-play and with plenty
of accent on the romance and ad-
venture in the script. The big bat
tie sequence, which provides the
film with a smash climax, was di-
rected with terrific suspense and
gusto, so that it provides one of the
most breath taking screen battles
seen in picture in many moon.
"The Real Glory" abounds in
thrills, romance, action and color.
Briefly the story revolves around
the heroism and daredeviltry of the
Philippine Scouts WHO were left to
police the turbulent islands after
the American Army was evacuated
at the end of the Spanish-American
war. The peace of the islands was
left in constant jeopardy because the
fierce Moro tribesmen retreated to
the hills and there fomented a
dreadful religious warfare. GoldWyn
brings to the production of 1.-THE
Real Glory" his usual lavish pro-
duction touch plus an uncanny sense
Of realism and brilliance of setting.
In summing up, it must be re-
ported that THE Real Glory" is
Samuel Goldwyn at his best. Which
means, of course, that it is picture
not to be missed-if you like 9

Banquet Is Given for
Basketball Bows

Friday evening, the 81" Club and
Peptomists gave a banquet in hon.
or for the basketball boys. Guests
of honor were Superintendent and
Mrs. Wood, Mr.. and Mrs. William
Erickson, and Mr. and Mrs. Wayne
Kemper.
A delicious dinner, which was
prepared by the 81" Club members
and the Peptomists, was served by
the Peptomist girls. Douglas Stick
ney, president of the 81" Club, and
Mary Cornell, Peptomist president,
acted as host and hostess. They
had prepared entertainment which
consisted of songs by Katie Lamp
ton, piano selections by Geraldine
Burke, and the trio, Mary Cornell.
Betty Baker, and Geraldine Burke
sang a song Afterwards the entire
group sang school songs, and the
basketball boys sang school songs
alone, proving that they, too, knew
the words to school songs as well, if
not better, than the rest of the
high school students.
Interesting speeches were given
by the guests and the boys. Coach
Erickson concluded the speeches by
presenting lis" to the boys who had
earned them in basketball. He also
told little interesting things about
each player. Those who received
their 81" were: Captain Don Slei-
ger, Richard Neils, Joe Corbett, Bill
Seims, Forrest and Leonard Spen-
Ger, Howard Eggert, and Bill Mar
tin.
After the banquet, the entire high
school enjoyed a dance sponsored
by the members of the 81" Club
and Peptomists. This was about the
first school dance that the basket
ball boys have been permitted to at
tend since basketball training start
ed last fall.
Because the banquet and dance
proved 81 cessful, it was sug-
gested that It be a tradition here
after for the IL" Club members
and the Peptomists to give a BAN
quet in honor of the basketball boys
every year.

they won IL games and lost four.
Libby won rs per cent of the games
played, and made total of 800
points against their opponents $50
points. Victories were gained over
Boomers Ferry, Poison ST. Mat
thews, Whitefish, Columbia Falls,
Troy, and Eureka.
At the tournament the. Terriers
met defeat and fourth place. They
gained victories over Columbia Falls
and Eureka, and they lost to Troy
and Poison by small margin. The
Libby team made a total of 1913
points at the tournament against
their opponents 96. The forego-
ing statistics prove that the Terriers
had an excellent team this year.
Those seniors who are leaving the
team this year are Don Sleizer,
Richard Neils, and Joe Corbett.
These players will be missed by the
boys next year, but seven of the
team will remain to strengthen next
years chances. They are Bill Mar

new central auditorium, lasting from
$3.50 to $780, The first picture was
on the history of locks, taking in
the period from Cleopatra's day till
the present 1t also showed how
locks are made in Yale's factory.
The second was on the mining of
asbestos and its uses, and the third
was on the nursing profession The
few students who attended found
their time well spent, as it would
have taken them weeks to learn as
much from textbook.
On Monday, March II, two reels
of film were shown to the high
school students in the music room.
One of the films was about copper
mining, and the other explained
how books are printed and bound.

EDITORIAL
Death to the Road Hog!

Perhaps you are wondering just
what place road hog has in high
school paper, and we hope that you
win finish reading this editorial
just to find out.
1t is one o'clock and Sally starts
to class, but remembers that she
has forgotten her pencil, and SO she
dashes back up the aisle undaunt-
ed by the line of oncoming traffic.
You step aside for Sally to squeeze
by, but think little OF it, since it is
not uncommon for Sally to come
rushing back for something she has
forgotten. As you come nearer to
the end of the aisle you slam into
a delegation gathered around boy
who is telling fellow students about
the test questions, and you have to
vault a desk and cross the aisle SO
that you are able to get past. Hav-
ing finally gained the hall, you feel
free to go little faster to make
up for lost time. But Lady Luck
seems to be looking in the other d.
rection, and you slam into two girls
walking down the wrong side of
the hall, who didn't notice you, and
spend precious minutes picking up
a miscellaneous mess of books and
paper. Just as the bell rings you
dash into class, nervous wreck,
and spend half the period recover
ing. When the bell rings, you're
off to another race of hit-and-run
dashes to your next class Why
can't we just apply few good driv-
ing rules in the corridors and as
sembly Of our high school, to ex-
terminate the road hog and the hit
and-run-driver?

ALL STAR BLUES
BEAT REDS, FL
Hurting OF Edens And Hitting
Of Stokley Wins First Of
Cape Fear Series Tits
BY r. j. POWELL

With A. B. Skokely's timely hit
ting and Johnnie Edens' drum-tigh'
hurting providing the incentive, the
All Star Blue team of the Cape Fear
loop edged out the Red all-star u
fit p yesterday afternoon at the
Robert Strange diamond as the anna
teur circuit opened its annual All
Star series.
The big outfielder from the Ath'
1etics practically won the game TOT
the Blue boys. The first of his three
singles drove Rowan home with the
first tally of the game, and then
in the tilt-winning eighth Stokely,
singled, stole second and scored the
Blues second run of the fray on
Norman Farmers long double to
center.
Meanwhile, Edens, on the slab for
The men of Blue, limited the heavy
hitting Red lineup to six spaced
knocks and famed IL. The re fast
baller was never in trouble and faced
onlv 20 batters during the contest.
But Stokley and Edens were mol
the only heroes of the errorless ball
game between the two hand'plcKeo
apsresations from the Cape ear
loop. Alvin Tatum, subbing for NC
Donald behind the bat for the Red
men. was the stand-out performer
for his side. Aside from his steady
catching, the promising youngster
halted in the only Red marker with
his smashing single in the fourth.
First Baseman Eagles and Shortstop
Eddie Hobbs of the losers also shared
the spotlight with their brilliant
defensive play.
Playing before a baked crowd es'
timated at five thousand, the Blues
cot off to a flying start with one
rim in the first chapter and the
lead held until the fourth when the
Reds tailed their lone marker. The
situation remained thus until the
Blues scored what proved to be the
winning margin in the eighth.

will meet tonight at 7:30 o'clock In

Dodgers Take Special En-
pagement From Robins BY
Score Of 6 To 3

BROOKLYN, N. Y. Sept. o.
R-Time turned backward for
thousands of Brooklyn baseball
fans here this afternoon as two
dozen former Dodger stars met
in a three-inning exhibition at Eb-
bets field.
The Dodgers, with a heavy
advantage of youth on their sdle
won from the Robins" by 6 to 3.
But the crowd of more than 2O,O OO
was with the older fellows. 1t roar
ed when Zach Wheat caught flies
out on his old left field patrol
and when that once mighty slug
ger, now So, cracked a clean sim
gle to center in the third inning,
driving across a run.
Dazzy Vance, Waite Hoyt and
Owen Carroll pitched an inning
apiece for the victors and only
Carroll was scored upon. Sherrod
Smith, Rube Marquard and Al Ma
maux did the pitching for the
Robins.
Oldest player on the field was
Tom Jordan, first baseman of the
Robins" who was home run king
of the National league 80 years
ago. The rest of the 'Dodger'' in
field consisted of Gus Getz at Sec
ond, Jimmy Johnston at third and
Chuck Ward at short. What is
generally considered Brooklyn's
greatest outfield-Tommy Griffith,
Hi Myers and Wheat-was intact
on the picket line. Otto Miller and
Ernie Kruger caught.
The Dodgers" had the COM
paratively modern infield of Del
Bissette, Fresco Thompson, Joe
Strip and Andy High and used
Gene Sheriden, Bernie Neis and
RUDE Bressler in the outfield and
had Hank Deberry and Val Pic
behind the bat.
The tilt was played between
games of the Brooklyn-Philadel-
phia doubleheader. 3
