The members of this association, being interested in their own work, would buy tickets themselves and do a great deal in selling outside tickets, and advertising. School spirit would le greater If such an organization existed. This year the spirit show n by the students has I een good, but we must always try to do better, if all the students belonged to an Ath- letic Association they would feel it their duty to help their own enter- prise along, so, if they cannot play, they can show the flayers that they are with them and will give them all the support possible. A a lesult of the cooperation of tht stdudents and the faculty there is no reason why our school should nol have as good teams ns there are in this part of the state. One or the greatest troubles is the standings or the players It has been our misfortune for the past, few years to have the good players llunk. It is said that an Athletic Association does away with n great deal of this. If this is true, our school should have one. Ilut why is it true? It seems that there will be a great deal more school spirit and in this way the students will be interested, also the officers of the association and the members might be of great assistance to the person who Is on the 75 percent mark and through their efforts he might work this mark beyond the danger line. In many schools the athletes are the ones who carry ofT the high marks. One school has sent a team here to play, all having an average of about 90 percen». If other schools can. do this, Hudson High School can do it. and we can put out teams next year and in the future years that our school can be proud of. Hudson has Ifce material and the spiritual support if a good team Is playing. With an Athletic Association to back our teams and help keep up their scholarship, we ought to have an athletic representation that the town's people would he proud of. ROBERT JONES ’16.
