NINETY-SIX DEFEATS
McCORMICK HI.
On Friday, February IQ .the Mc
Cormick girls went down i n defeat
by a score of 52-24. This was the
first game that the McCornrck girls
have lost this season. It should be
remembered that McCormick won
over N’nety-Six in their first en
gagement on Ninety-Six court.
The McCormick girls played just
as well if not better in this game
with N nety-Six than they did in the
other, but they could not stand up
under the pounding of the Ninety-
Six girls which was allowed by the
referre who was a’ native of Ninety-
Six and also the coach of the Ninety-
Six team.

Dairy heifers from fall-freshening
cows enter their second six months
under the favorable conditions of
summer pasture and it is usually nec
essary to feed some hay or silage or
a little grain only early in the
spring and later when the pastures
begin to fail. A calf bom in the
spring enters the second six months
i n winter and should be well fed to
keep her developing rapidly so that
she may be bred at the proper age
and become an income producer. The
U. S. Department of Agriculture ad
vises that during late fall and win
ter the heifer calf should be fed all
the legume hays she will eat, from

JUNIOR AND SENIOR CLASSES
GIVE PLAY.
On last Friday morning, selected
members of the junior and senior
classes entertained the student body
with a short one act play, entitled,
“Enter the Hero,” by Theresa Hel-
burn. This play was taken from the
tenth grade literature text and had
been studied in class sometime be
fore.
The play centers around a girl
who carried on both sides of her'
lomar.tic correspondence and found
herself quite embarrassed when the
hero entered to speak for himself.
Those chosen by the ballot system to
take the part in the play were. HeL
en Harvley, who played the part of
Annie Carey, the heroine; William
Croft, who played the part of Har
old the hero; Ethel McDaniel whose
natural dignity helped her, played
the part of Mrs. Carey, and Sallie
Mae Parks who played the part of
Ruth Carey, Anne’s younger sister.
Each character caught the spirit of
his or her part and appeared to live
it while on the stage.

take this exercise voluntarily than to
be forced to take it. A convenient
way to furnish exercise is by feeding
