 The birthdays of great Ameri- cans are very numerous in the month of February. General Sher- mans birthday was the 9th, Will liam Harrison's the 9th, Thomas Edisoh's the 1lth, Abraham Lin coins the 18th, and George Wash ington's the 22th. Henry Longfel- lows birthday is on the 27th of February.
 George Washington became a surveyor, commander of the army, and the first President of the United States. A brief history of his life and appropriate poems were read in the assembly. Later in the day, the first and the third grade rooms entertained us with short plays and dialogues based o nthe life of Washington.
 Monday noon saw the return of our basketball team from the tournament in Anchorage. Clear, calm weather both leaving and returning made the trip very enjoyable one. We are all proud of the fact that our boys won the first two games that they played. Our team won many friends at the tournament and only little bad luck kept us from getting to the very top. We still think we have one of the best teams in Alaska. For four of the boys, it meant the last stand for their Alma Mater because they gradu- ate in May.
 Students in typing I class are having numerous five minute tests.
 Intermural basketball games are again playing leading roll in athletics.
