Libby High School lost their first
game to the Poison Pirates 25-7 on
the Poison field, under the flood
lights, last Friday night. The game
was featured by the hard running
of the Poison backs which the Lib
by players could not stop. Coach
Hudacek said he was very much
displeased with Libby's defense,
missing tackle after tackle. The
line was not charged by Poison
three-fourths of the game. How
ever, he was pleased with the Ter
riers' running attack. I'VE made as
many yards from scrimmage as Pol
son and our passing attack was
much superior, though we begged
down just when we needed the Zip"
he said.
The game opened up with Me-
range, Polson's kickoff, almost re-
turning it for touchdown, running
it back to Libby's 30-yard line. On
this run at least seven Libby play
ers threw arm tackles at him but
slipped off After two first downs,
Libby held and Eggert kicked on
Libby's 38-yard line. Montgomery
and Sief~t scored first downs.

Pep Rally Is Held

Friday morning, October 10, a
pep rally was given for the boys
who were playing Poison that night.
Several new songs were used-one

very cleverly given. An unusual

A few years ago there was unveiled
In Caracas. the capital OF the South
American republic of Venezuela, 4
statue OF great Pan-American. The
inscription on it. written in Spanish,
reads: Henry Clay. 1777-1852, Apos-
tie Of fraternity between the coun-
tries OF America and valiant defender
of their independence The United
States OF America presents to the
United States OF Venezuela this
statue Of its illustrious statesman.
speaker Of the House Of Representa-
tives, Senator and Secretary Of State. /"
The statue. given in return for one
Of General Simon Bolivar. the South
American champion OF independence
and Pan-Americanism which was
unveiled in Central park in New
York city in 1921, was formally dedi-
Gated by / distinguished delegation
from the United States and the statue
was received by the President Of the
Republic Of Venezuela.
This ceremony, which honored the
man who, in the United States, has
been called THE First n-Ameri-
can" and the Father Of Pan-Amer-
icanism". was significant one In the
history OF the nations OF the New
World It was a gesture OF friendship
on the part Of the most powerful OF
those nations to smaller nation
which has reason to feel grateful to
an older sister in the Pan-American
family. For to the Venezuelans the
statue, erected in the square in their
capital to which they have given the
name OF Plaza Henry Clay, means
more than mere memento Of q
great man. To them Henry Clay was
4 friend, not only friend in words,
but 4 friend In deeds as well and
the monument will be a constant re-
minder Of that fact and Of the inter-
national good will which prompted
the presentation Of 1t to their coun-
try.
AS early as 1915 Henry Clay began
his campaign in the Congress in
support Of the colonies Of Spain,
then in revolt Clay in his capacity
Is Speaker OF the House Of Repre-
sentatives, reasoning that the United
States might have openly ito take
part with the patriots OF South
America opposed the reduction
OF taxes incident to the War OF
1912, and a year later likewise OPP
posed bill intended to stop the At
ting out OF war vessels In United
States ports, maintaining that such .
bill might be detrimental to the in
terests OF South Americans who were
still struggling for their freedom
In 1877 he offered a proposal tc
authorize a salary for minister te
the provinces OF the Rio de la Plata
In March, 1918, Clay made the speech
which is still gratefully remembered
by South Americans. Like all Of

Tattler's Tidbits

According to the books, Socrates
is the second greatest teacher 81
mankind. But down in World His
tory the other day we learned from
Bill Miller that all we know about
him came from Pluto, and another
person reported that he died two
years before his birth. This being
70, isn't he at least the worlds most
unusual man? Mrs. Shanahan's BIZ
ology class discussed several new
ways to make oxygen. Biology, be-
ing a science and as science, is
such an exact study. / should pre-

proven correct No. Run glass

burner and let it run through a
glass tube. OF course we must take
into consideration that this second
one is limited to magicians

Joyce Morrill, is the girl that
carries the sophomores' banner in
to the battle for supremacy in the
Queen race in the Hi Jinx. With a
girl like Joyce the sophs should
really work hard for the title.
With the band and drill team
drilling for the past two weeks for
program at the Homecoming
game, it ought to be one of the
biggest shows of this year.
Since Mr.. Sargent's interest in
marching figures has taken hold in
Hi School, the townspeople have
shown lot more interest in the
school.
In fact one woman was so taken
away with the bands marching that
she called up MIR. Wood and got two
tickets to the floor show in ID
vance. with the football game
thrown in, OF course.)

Dorothy Ledum to represent their

Whitefish to Play Here

The Libby Terriers, after de-
feat at the hands of the Poison Pr
rates, meet a hard-hitting White
fish squad for the Homecoming, Sat-
urday. October 18th. This game
should bring out record crowd to
the Libby field not only because it
is our Homecoming but also it
should be the best home game of
the season. Whitefish has just en-
tered B Glass competition, dropping
from A Glass because of the stiff
competition. But being used to this
competition, the Bulldogs should be
all ready to put up hard fight
with Libby. The Terrier squad,
having learned much from last
weeks battle. are entering to win the
game Which may give Libby a
chance to play for the champion
ship. This depends upon the win
ner of the Poison Whitefish game
later this month.
The Homecoming activities will
begin with pep rally Friday af-
ternoon and snake dance and bon
fire at the field Friday night. The
L will be lighted and everyone is
encouraged to attend. The students
will meet at the school at 7.30. A
dance will be held on Saturday
night after the game. This is our
chance to stand behind the team, SO
students and alumni, join the pa
rade and see the game.
Fluorescent lights now radiate our
entire high school assembly room
and the tipping laboratory. The
students are all very glad about
the fluorescent lighting.
