Lack of space prevented us from publishing themj. , ATHLETICS W TRACK About twenty-five candidates responded to the first call for track practice, which was issued about the middle of April. A large number of these candidates were un- derclassmen, and this makes it look as if Dedc would have the material for sev- eral more championship teams in the fu- ture. This year practice began a little late so the boys have had some stiff work. The interclass meet was held in the latter part of April and a good showing was made, for so short a period of practice. Eugene Moran of the junior class was the highest individual point winner with Fred Robbins of the senior class a close second. The Freshmen and Juniors carried away a vic- tory over the Seniors and Sophomores in this meet with a 67-64 score. Following is a list of men who won places in the meet, E.fMoran, Fred Robbins, E, Manley, P. VVheeler, R. Harlow, E. Lindsey, V. Man- ley, j.'Vanderveer, W. Moreton, K. Martin, A. Hebb, H. Smith, and L. Corbett. MIDDLEBURY MEET. On May ll, E. Moran, F. Robbins, E. Lindsey, R. Harlow, P. Wheeler, E. Man- Q3 ley, K. Martin, W. Moreton, M. Austin, H. Smith, V.

E. Lindsey P. Wheeler, F. Robbins, and E. Moran won the one-half mile relay for Brattleboro. The college men entertained the boys during the two days stay and every man was glad of the opportunity to see college life in this way. A FEW COMMENTS ON THE MIDDLEBURY Bob f.lHarlow is a hard man to beat. Ask thei upstate champions if they know him. We are glad to have, Bob on the B. H. S. track team. Our little boy will be some high jumper when he grows up. Vic Manley is cer- tainly a fine little jumper when he goes over the bar when it is a couple of inches over his head. We wonder how some of the big fellows feel when he sails over heights they canit reach. Ed Manley gets a wonderful curve on the discus when he wants to. It goes through the air just as if he knew how to make it work after it has left him. How do you do it, Eddie? CYou should watch Gene Moran throw the discus. Ask Dede about itlb Did you see or hear that little boy with the flashy suit and nice part in his hair? It is our manager, Francis Harwood and he makes a good one, too. No cake or pie, fellows. Better leave off the ice cream to- nightf' INVITATION MEET The B. H. S. Invitation Meet was held on the Fair Grounds, May 7, Again Brat- tleboro was victorious, winning by 64 points. Tech. of Springfield, Mass. was second with a score of 23 points. Rutland was third with 19 points.

QQ one was there games were played and the boats were used, proving a good source of amusement. Some of the members also showed their skill in swimming. The picnic lunch prepared by the mem- bers of the committee was served in the grove. Everyone considered the picnic a success, due to the hearty co-operation of the committee and the two teachers, Miss Glazier and 'Miss Jette. Still another picnic was enjoyed by the members of the Cercle Francais in Bige- low Pastures on June 5. After the supper of hot dogs, bacon, drinks, and lollipops had been thoroughly digested, games were played, songs were sung, and a few en- dulged in the gentle sport of wading. Several other classes have also had picnics. Miss Brown,s sophomore French class held one at Forest Lake, while Miss Moore's sophomore English class had one at Broad Brook. B. H. S. has been blessed with a large number of picnics this spring, yet in spite of the large number, each one has been thoroughly enjoyed by those present. ff 0 I J at Our Idea of Nothing at All.
