Junior-Senior.
The brilliant suggestion for
the game came from four am
bitious juniors—Sonny Mrl«ain,
Molly Jean Smith, Rose Trues
dale and Eloise Gettys. Their pton
is to let Junior and Senior girls
participate in the game and let
the proceeds go into the funds of
the two classes. Coaching the girls
will be George Beleos, Billy Dix
on and Jack Holland for the Sen
iors, and Sonny McLain, Gayle
Kerr and Bdbby Mahoney for the
Juniors. Practice has been sched
uled to start the Monday after
exams, which will be Jan. 30.. We
are sure this game will be a great
success if all-the girls participat
ing really intend to “PLAY

Basketball is a much discussed
subject at Baron DeKalb these
days. However we have not been
very successful this year. We are
encouraging good sportsmanship,
as It not only takes It to tie a
good winner, but alto good losers.
Our team Is made up of the AntlOCh Home
same players as last year with the
exception of one new one. We
have many substitutes, but they
do not have many chances to play.
We think that If we had more
