Basket Ball Grants Pass defeated Ashland in the local gym by a score of I 7 to I 5. In basket ball, as in football, the Cavemen excelled in sportmanship, and in clean playing. We had a good team, but, in some cases, the other team was better. We say this because who wants to be beaten by an inferior team? The lineup for this year was as follows: Wiley and Flory, guards; McGuire and Jackson, forwards; Cook and Fredericks as centers. [18]

« 9 j 2 T HE TOKA j 932 December 18. Christmas Play It has been the custom for a number of years past that the Senior Class give the Christmas program. This year the class of 1932 chose the play “A Sign Unto You.” I he setting of the play is in a wealthy East Side home in New York. The time is Christmas Eve. The family thinks only of the physical side of life, except the son who has chosen to become a preacher. Instead of taking a wealthy East Side church, he chooses to work among the tenements and slums. The two girls are not content to live with their parents and have an apartment of their own in Upper New York. After living in this apartment for about a year, they are dissatisfied and want to move into a larger and more expensive apartment. Their present allowance will not permit this move and their father will not increase their allowance. It is the custom of the family to come together on Christmas Eve for dinner, and the girls with their mother and father are impatiently awaiting the arrival of the son, who is usually late to these gatherings. When the son arrives he explains that he had been detained by the need of one of his tenement families. 1 he mother tries to persuade him to give up preaching in the slums and to go into business with his father, or to take a church more worthy of their name. While she is talking, a little newsboy comes to the door. He faints on the doorstep from the cold and the lack of food. The sight touches the heart of the family and they help in caring for the child. The newsboy falls asleep on the couch from exhaustion after braving the storm. The son .tarts reading the Christmas story, and while he is reading a light shines in the form of a halo above the couch. One of the girls goes over to investigate and finds that the newsboy is gone and that he was typifying the Spirit of Christ. Inasmuch as ye have done it unto the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.” December 19. Basket Ball The first basket ball game for the local boys was played on the home floor with Chiloquin. who carried off victory by a score of 24 to 15. December 24. Students Play Santa Claus About a month before the Christmas holidays. Mr. McDonald thought it a good idea to create a Santa Claus club to help out the poor children who weren’t going 10 have any Christmas. He held a meeting and the members elected Bill Carl president. There were several committees organized, one to rebuild the toys, and one to take care of and remodel dolls. They asked the students to donate old toys to be fixed over. The members of the club worked hard for three weeks, and by Christmas everything was ready. They met at the high school. Carl Boesch furnished a truck to deliver in, and Robert Jones made a good Santa Claus. Mr. McDonald was ill, and Mrs. McDonald took his place. They had a list of places to go, and it would have done anyone good, and I know' it repaid the members for all their work, to see the children’s eyes “pop w'hen “Santa Claus” stepped through the door with his pack. The parents were all very grateful for what was done. The distributing was finished about 10:30 by a very tired but happy group of people. They wish to thank everyone for their contributions and help. 1171
