GRADES PLACE FIRST IN COUNTY TOURNAMENT On March 21 the Alvo grade school teem entered the county tourncment at Eagle with high hopes of winning a first plr.ee trophy. Last year's team had come close to doing that job but fell a little bit short of the goal. The first opponent of the young Orioles was Green- wood and this gome resulted in a tragic ending for the Trojans. The score at the final buzzer was 37 to 25. One hurdle jumped. On March 22 another victim was added to the Orioles list. Nehawke was the unfortunate team. The score of that game was 37 to 12. Two hurdles jumped. Now for the last and biggest one. Alvo had to meet its arch rival in all kinds of competition, Elmwood. The going was rough but at last the Pirates were over- come by a score of 30 to 25 and the Orioles were able to capture the first place trophy. There wore rewords for this fine piece of work. Coach Schneider took the team to a movie and dinner and the grade pep club girls entertained the boys at a fine party at Martin Zoz's home. So another first piece troohy takes its place beside the various other trophies in the school office show- case. This is the first Championship Trophy ever to be won by the grade school in the school's history.
