BASKET BALL SECOND TEAM Our haslcet ball second team is the chief agency in making our lirst team what it is, and has its lineup as follows: Eby, centerg Miller, left forward: E. Fischer, right forward: Swayne, left guard: McMullen, right guard:Reed, substitute guard. Tlze boys have played only two gzunes this year, both of which were with Constantine. ln the home game they were victorlous but were defeated in the return game, which was due to playing on a strange tioor and the disabling of one of their best players. These boys deserve much credit in tlte fact that they faithfully supported the practice grames for the hrst team and added to its efiieeucy. Although thev did not have inueh chance to distinguish themselves this year, they have good prospects ot lzuilihng a successful team next year. SECOND BASKET BALL TEAM SECOND TEAM RECORD Ti. 11.

THE AGRICULTURE CLASS Bristol High School first recognized along with other leading High Schools of Indiana the im- portance of Agriculture as a science, last year. And it was last year that they met the demands of the people by introducing agriculture into the school. By the end of the year they could have hung up ribbons as a champion of Niorthern Indiana. This year only the Freshmen of the High School were allowed to enter into the Agriculture class. excepting the seventh and eighth grades. The Freshmen have not taken up all the different lines of agriculture but have studied more in detail the raising and caring for poultry. At the beginning of the year they decided to build a chicken house on the school campus and started raising chickens to discover the best food and ration to feed chickens in order to obtain a large amount of eggs. ' Their work has met with success and should be an example for other Agriculture Classes of Bristol to follow. DOMESTIC SCIENCE The Domestic Science Class. with Miss Esther Lehman as instructor is the first class that has ever performed any experiments in this depart- ment at llristol High School. Although we have had poor equipmentQ we have produced some ex- cellent results. NN-fe have been very enthusiastic with our work and have succeeded in the prepara- tion of many recipes. On the eighteenth of December we prepared and served a three-course dinner to the members of the Board and County Superintendent. XVe exceedingly appreciated the fact that it seemed to have been highly appreciated by all present. One morning we visited the bakery. We not only enjoyed our trip, but found it very interest- ing and instructive. Next year we expect to give special attention to Domestic Science,.devoting five hours of our time each week to this work instead of two, and 'we sfncerely hope to have better equipment. IN MEMORIAM. One of the saddest events to occur during our High School career was the death of one of our most beloved class mates. Charles Hartranft. His sickness came upon him last year, compelling him to stay from school. This year near Christ- mas death visited his home and although being expected, yet it was a shock to every one. The Senior Class purchased two beautiful bouquets of roses and carnations for him during his sickness and death. Charles certainly ,is missed in the High School. He was a good, honest and hard working student. He participated in all athletic games and was instrumental in helping in all high school functions no matter what they were until his sickness. VVe as a class certainly regret to think that Charles could not be among our num- ber to graduate this year.
