A C T I V I T I E S ithout the various clubs and organi- zations, the average student would probably acquire little knowledge of accomplishments being carried on outside his own class. For both girls and boys are the various musical groups. This year we have both Girls' and Boys' Glee Clubs and small groups from the different classes. The boys' interests lead to the athletic activity of the school. There is the B Club which is the social organization for the boys. Mr. Garber, the coach, is sponsor of this group. Also included in the athletics, are football, basketball, and track. Girls' interests lead to G. A. A. which is an athletic organization for all girls who wish to join. The main athletic event of this group is the Girls Basketball Tourna- ment which is held in the spring. The Pep Club is an organization only for girls. It is for the purpose of creating and stressing school spirit and pep. This club also entertains the B Club and also various other organizations of the school. Other activities that afford a great deal of entertainment for the members of the school are those that are sponsored by the various classes. One of thc most outstand- ing events of the winter season was the Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom, which was sponsored by the Junior Class. The school paper, the Sandburr is pub- lished every other week by members of the Journalism class under the supervision of Mr. Sohus. The school yearbook is published and edited by a group of seniors who were chosen by the high school faculty. These extra-curricular activities are a great benefit to the students of Bayard High and are of great importance in their future lives.

Scottsbluff overpowered in the second half to an end 25-6 victory. Bayard with their 2nd and lst teams, ran wild to a 45-0 win over a green Lyman team. All of Bayard's teams scored for our first victory. Bayard won their second conference game with a 6-0 win over Morrill in the first half. With this game Bayard's team started rolling on the road to the N.P.V.C. championship. Bayard defeated top ranking Mitchell with a 7-6 score, placing us in the leading position in the N.P.V.C. race. Outstanding back was Delbert Wimmer, while linemen Smith, O'Neal and Sides held up the line for the winners. With Wimmer scoring both touchdowns, the Tigers defeated the Gering Bulldogs 14-0. One of the toughest games of the season, it took real playing to defeat the tough Gering team. Due to the harvest vacation, Bayard made 27 a poor showing against the Sidney team. In this, the toughest game of season, the Tiger team attained many injuries, includ- ing Wimmer, O'Neal, Keil and Frakes. The Maroons won 33-13. With Harris of Bayard kicking a lone field goal, the Tigers dropped Bridgeport, with whom we were tied for the conference with a 3-0 win. Both sides displayed fine running, blocking and tackling in this ex- citing and tough game. Running Wild, Dean Merry spurted the Tigers to a 21-0 win over the Kimball's Longhorn's. With a high wind blowing both teams were held to the ground offen- sive. This year was the first time that the Longhorns have been included in the Tigers schedule. In a thrill-packed Turkey Day game the Tigers enjoyed a victory for their last initial game of 1943, defeating Minatare 6-0 to cinch the N.P.V.C. championship. Suffering from the defeat handed them by the Scottsbluff Bearcats the Tigers wound up second in the Western Nebraska Con- ference.
