Seniors Give Party

The annual senior ball was held
Saturday night December 18th. af-
ter the Bonners Ferry-Libby game
The junior high assembly was beau
tifully decorated with cedar boughs
and two colorful bedecked Christ
mas trees. In the. middle OF the
room large mirrored ball hung,
which cast glistening beams OF
light over the softly lighted hall
As was previously announced, a
wurlitzer was used instead of an
orchestra and the $35 which is us
ually used to pay for an orchestra
was donated by the senior class to
the defense fund. The wurltzer
was loaned by Don Orr, manager of
the Fountain. who very graciously
paid not only for cost of opera
ton, but also for the dray. This
left $500 more for the defense fund
which would have been the cost
OF the music box and the hauling
charges. The whole high school
wishes to thank Mr.. Orr for his
generous attitude in the matter.
Punch was served during the inter
mission and very successful party
ended at midnight.

Playing on Libby's floor for the
second time this year the Terriers
eked out 1913 victory over Bon
ners Ferry.
Rough play, wild shooting, and
scrambling for the ball was at its
maximum with little chance for
best scoring opportunities.
Libby led at the end of the first
quarter Al on two long shots by
Captain Martin
From then on scoring by both
teams was at minimum. However,
Eggert was able to sink two beauti-
full side shots and Daugharty
sneaked in the fifth field goal.
Bonners Ferry's talleys came in
the second and fourth periods,
when Zimmerman and Wilson both
sank one in each quarter. The rest
If their points were made from
fouls.
Again Libby's brilliant defense
was the major contribution to the
game, checking the much taller
and heavier boys at every turn.
Brist played well as the lone sub
stitute for Libby.
Line up for the game.

Nosey Notes

Usually when a person violently
processes hate for someone, it is
love Note the case of Duane Del
ger and Betty Jeanne.
Why does Duane Delzer always
ask Lenore Powell for the history
assignment? / mean why does Le-
more always ask Delzer2
The above two were given to me
to be put in the paper. All dis
agreements may be ironed out with
me, though. Especially those from
Athena. I'm sure Delzer will have
to talk quite fast to clear himself.
Dorothy Ledum was determined
to set that statute on the floor in

how it would look.

In fast and exciting game played
at Troy Tuesday night Libby won
its fourth consecutive game of the
year by wholloping Troy 30-l5,
Sophomore DWayne. Delzer sank
four outside shots, Earle sank
three Of his speciality hook shots,
Daugharty and Martin sank three
each and Eggert popped long one.
Brist threw in his one lone foul
attempt.
Coach Hudacek said, ITO date,
Pete Earle's opposing center in five
games has yet to score point
against him. Martins work on
watching Moore, Troy hot shot, was
superb and Delzer's watching the
tricky Kuwahara was work Of art.
Daugharty and Earle controlled the
back boards well.

What do you think we should
do about tardies? Do you think the
present system of keeping those
tardy after school is proving sat-
factory?
Pete Earle. / think that much Of
the hardness is uncailed for. How
ever, something should be done to
make the system q little fairer. for
several tardinesses are unavoidable
ard these people should not have to
pay, a penalty. Perhaps letting the
principal be the Judge Of whether
the ~tArdieS were uncalled for or not
and punish them accordingly.
Marian Fuller. Mr.. Rounds says
it has helped a great deal to have
those who have been tardy make up
time after school. / believe that
nearly every hardness is uncalled
for, and, ii the present system is
continued, hardness will be COM
pletelyx annihilated.
Detnyce Madison: Some tardies
are necessary, some aren't. Some
system should be devised whereby
the ones that can't be helped and
those OF carlessness should pay the
penalty set by the schoOl-stay
after school. The question comes
up-how do you know ii the tardi-
nes8 was necessary You will find
that those tardies are usually made
BY the same people. In regard to
the effect Of the present system OF
dealing with the offenderS-it has
helped, 4 think, to lessen them.
Art Martin: ! don't know of any
other system for getting people 70

The rf1s4li1' sy1tem seems to have

! think init 4 student should be
on time to school just as q person
should be on time for a job.
Betty Rubard: | think that too
many people come tardy when it
could be easily avoided, HOWEVER,
/ d. not think that the present
system is entirely fair some times
one cannot help being tardy.. Some
system is needed for the. punish
me1lt OF those who come tardy. The
prs1dnt system has cut down the
tardiness.

And made their share Of noise.
They weren't as bad destructively,
In din-they beat the boys.
Although the noise was lessened
When the warning bell was heard,

Sound like the flight OF bird.

His jaw hung to his chest.
