THE CORONA 9 BRIDGTON HIGH TO ENTER BASKETBALL LEAGUE Through the efforts of Chester R. Hall, the Cumberland County Secretary of the Y. M. C. A., a basketball league is being organized for the smaller high schools of this section. Five schools. Uridgton High, Norway, South Paris. Oxford. and Me- chanic Falls, have already definitely de- cided to enter the circuit: and West Paris High and Porter High have indicated that they are interested and may decide to join later. The general organization of this league will be similar to that of the Triple C League. another conference sponsored by the Y. M. C. A., which has proved very 9 successful. Previous to each season, the schedules will be arranged and satisfac- tory officials for the games will be agreed upon at a meeting of the coaches of the schools. A suitable trophy will be awarded each year to the team winning the con- ference. It is quite possible that at the end of each season, a play-off will be ar- ranged between the winner of this league and the winner of the Triple CU League in order to determine the championship for smaller schools in this part of Maine. VVQ sincerely advocate the formation of this league as we believe it will not only facilitate the drawing up of schedules and the choosing of officials, but will also serve to promote a spirit of good sports- manship among the schools.

When we play football, we play for all there is in us. lf we quit on the job we are called yellow, Now, no one likes to be called yellow, Yet isn't it being yellow when we fail to get good ranks in our studies simply because to do so requires considerable effort on our part? Let us think of school as a game with some definite goal to be obtained by what we gain from our lessons. Some of our assignments may be hard and we may often be thrown for a loss, but when this happens, we must study all the harder to get back those lost yards. Let us always keep our goal in mind and let us study, study, study, never giving in until our aim is achieved. THE ATHLETIC CARNIVAL XV e feel that we have every reason to be proud of the success of our Athletic Carnival this year. The precision and finish which was noticeable in all the events was evidence enough of much hard practice and willing cooperation between the instructors and the students. A fea- ture which added a great deal to the enter- tainment was music by the Chattanooga Band. and we wish to extend our thanks to this group of local musicians which gave its services free of charge to the school. We hope that many more of these car- nivals will be forthcoming in later years because we feel that they are really worth while. They are the only school events in which the whole student 'body takes part. Not only do they constitute a pleas- ant means of raising money to augment an ever diminutive athletic fund, but they also serve to give our parents an idea of just what physical training is accomplish- ing in Bridgton High School.
