I THE CATLINEAN WINTER See, Winter comes to rule the varied year, Sullen and sad, with all his rising train- Vapors, and clouds, and storms. Be these my themeg These, that exalt the soul to solemn thought And heavenly musing. Welcome, kindred glooms! Congenial horrors, hail! VVith frequent foot, Pleased have I, in my cheerful morn of life, When nursed by careless solitude I lived And sung of Nature with unceasing joy, Pleased have I wandered through your rough domaing Trod the pure virgin-snows, myself as pureg Heard the winds roar, and the big torrent burstg Or seen the deep-fermenting tempest brewed In the grim evening-sky. Thus passed theitime, Till through the lucid chambers of the south Looked out the joyous Spring-looked out and smiled Page Twenty

vm-vwrmv vnrw : :1 F ' THE CATLINEAN Page Twenty-one The campus looks more beautiful during the winter season than any other. The ground, covered with snow, makes a very beautiful foreground for the high school. The high school is the center of interest during the basketball season. Cat- lin's winning games outnumbered those lost by a great number. The F. H. A. girls participated by selling pop corn at the home games and the candy girls were always on their j ob. The first ten boys who played basketball went to the regional tourna- ment. They played several games, but were finally defeated. Catlin was proud of their good playing this year. Thanks to Mr. Tedrick. The wrestling boys made a good showing all during the wrestling season. A few of the boys went to the Wrestling Tournament and due to the grand training of Mr. Keeney, they brought back several victories. The F.F.A. boys are an organized group of future farmers. They have in- teresting meetings once every month, consisting of talks, exhibits, periods of en- tertainment, and different sports. They sold garden seeds and also auctioned off a bunch of small chicks, which were donated to them. The money from these went for the Father and Son Banquet given by them in April. The Glee Clubs and orchestra, under the coaching and leadership of Miss Brockmiller, were responsible for the success of the operetta. T he memory of the beauty of Catlin Township High School is most outstand- ing to the faculty and students during the winter months of the year.
