20 THE TATTLER Never before, since the high school gym has been opened, has a five held their rivals from scoring from the field. The seven points that Ashtabula made were gotten on fouls. Savage being the man to get these out of ten tries. The guarding of C. H. S. was so excellent that the visitors couldn’t get a close range shot at the basket to save their lives. The passing was so last and accurate that C. H. S. just played rings around Ashtabula. It was hard to tell who the stars for the locals were because every man put up such an excellent game that even Coach Smith had to look the second time to find any very bad fault. If some man did happen to do something uncreditable, he would quickly smooth it over by some other excellent play. All the men played together and each made his part a link in the chain of other parts. Dawley and Tommy probably put up the best game that they have played this season. Childs did wrell for his first game, while Leach and Stone, the old faithfuls, put up their usual star games. For Ashtabula. Savage was the individual star, getting all of the points for A. H. S. Conneaut—42. Ashtabula—7. Smith Childs Stone Leach Dawley Goals from field—Smith 7. Dawley 6, Stone 5, Leach 2. Goals from foul—Savage 7, Stone, Leach. CAN YOU IMAGINE Myra Griffey not asking questions? Mr. Henry with a “head of hair? Why Deweese’s favorite color is red? How it would seem always to have the auditorium warm enough for chapel? Miss Kahler saying “For the love of Mike? Harriet Stoke not dreaming? Oakley Graham wdth a red neck-tie? Miss Hodge chewing gum? Allen Wardwell not blushing? Jimmy Davis being able to spell? Mr. Helman minus perfume? How it would be if our Physics teac her didn’t say, “This piece of equipment is out of order.” Mildred Allen refusing to recite? Hal Tyler and Ralph Stone wearing each other’s clothes? Winnie Hill not worrying? Mr. Alva Belding will begin a series of lectures early in March on the subject, How to Choose Your High School Course.” Mr. Belding is well equipped to speak on this subject as he has, during his eight year course at C. H. S., taken nearly every subject in the curriculum and can give points upon all of them.

The Geneva and Conneaut high school basketball game, played on the gym floor, was a regular whirlwind. Geneva high school hung it on the high school by a close score of 20-18. The game started off with a rush and there was no let up. It was nearly five minutes before there was a basket caged, and this was rung by a Geneva fellow on a foul. Stone goth the first basket for the high school on a oul. Geneva managed to get 9 points to Conneaut’s 3 before the first half was up. The second half started with a different opinion on the high school five. Every man w-as in the game until the close. The cheering caused by the spectators, and the speed of the five began to knock Geneva’s teamwork to pieces. Just as the game was going at a fast rate, Stone tried to play basketball with his nose and was forced to retreat for a few minutes. Conneaut was then in the lead five points. When the game started again. Gentva had pulled themselves together, and they went into the game with the intention of winning, which Conneaut did also, but could not hit their usual stride. The time soon flew and the scores were close together. Just before the close, Geneva caged a basket or two, putting them in the lead 20-1S, giving them a hard earned game. Dawley put up the best game for Conneaut, while Chapman and McCall starred for the visitors. Conneaut. Geneva. Dunn-Smith R. F Leach 1.. F McCall Stone Dawley R. G Evans L.
