The high school baseball team
lost a well-played game to the
Centreville High School team on
Friday. The Centreville team with
record of nine wins had the nec-
essary punch to push over the de-
Gliding runs in the last few innings
of the game.
Williams pitched well for the
local team.
Final examinations for the sem
iors will be held on May % and 29.
peter Rabbit, an operetta by
the elementary school, under the
direction of the elementary school
teachers assisted by Mrs. John H.
Fearon, was given before an over
flow audience on Friday evening.
The performance of the particip-
ants and the rich coloring of the
costumes enhanced the excellence
and beauty of the operetta.
All Of the costumes, made by the
elementary teachers, represented
many hours of work outside of
school.
All of the advertising posters
and the stage decorations and
properties were projects of the
elementary school.
For an outstanding performance,
the elementary school, pupils and
teachers deserve much conimenda-
ton.
The spring testing program has
been curtailed because Of the in
ability to secure testing materials.

SPORTS AT DELAWARE PARK

Competition and Entertainment
Planned for Personnel
A broad sports and recreational
program for Delaware Park, along
the desire of Donald P. Ross, will
be placed in full swing for the
forthcoming meeting, which opens
May 20 and continues to July s.
The plans include competition and
entertainment for the entire race
track personel, which for years at
Delaware, has been served by night
ly movies shown in the grandstand.
Perhaps the most successful pro-
gram Of this kind in the country
has been that at Saratoga Springs.
In an endeavor to duplicate that
great success, the Saratoga recre-
alton manager and his aides will be
in charge of the activities at Della
ware. Indeed it was at Saratoga
last August that Mr.. Ross, togeth-
er with J.Simpson Dean and Bryan
Field, decided to 60 ahead with the
matter. Preparations for the new
enterprise have been going on
through the winter-the knottiest
point being the establishment of a
club room or headquarters. Due to
CPA building restrictions it was
impossible to erect new structures
for such purposes. Therefore the
building around which the recrea-
tion center will function for the
coming meeting, will be convert
ed structure, which however in
cludes showers.

THAT is true with the single

The actor declared that England
hasn't been able to reciprocate In

That was the report OF Court

number of dispositions to date was
