In October we had some interesting talks on The VVelfare of the Child and The object of P.-T. A. The subject for discussion in November was, Hot Lunches. We were also favored by several piano solos by Miss Eleanor Spreen of Nvatervliet. Our December meeting was given over to a Christmas entertainment under the di- rection of Miss Muscott, ably assisted by the grade teachers. It included carols by the children, a cantata, The Angel and the Star, by the Girls Glee Club and a pantomime, accompanied by a mixed chorus of High School students. In Jan- uary we had a very unusual program. The girls of the Lo-pu-sty-ka Camp and their guardian, Mrs. Haskell, put on a Campfire Ceremonial. They had as their guests the girls of the Ser-he-lo-ha Camp and their guardian. It was a very colorful and unique entertainment. The most outstanding piece of work accom- plished by the P. T. A. was the Hot Lunch project which was carried on during January and February. Through the eiforts of our organization, the school child- ren were able to secure at a very low cost a nourishing hot dish each day during the winter months. We wish to express our appreciation to Mr. O. R. Smith for his splendid cooperation in preparing the food for the lunches. In March Mr. VVissman gave a very interesting talk on Plant Diseases. The Ways and Means Committee, Lawrence Kenney, chairman, are planning a home talent play to be given in April. 50

The 1930 Basketball season was a very successful one, due to the splendid coaching of Pat', Andrews, who developed for the iirst time, since the building of our school, a Championship Team. Andrews has turned out teams in the past which have played a high brand of ball, but never has Covert had a scrappier or faster bunch of men than on this year's team. VVe started out the season with a squad of' seventeen men, including Captain Houston, Delano and Kenney of last year's squad and some promising material from last year's second team, namely, Bates, Harvey, Austin, Gnofrio and Vaughan, also a new player, XY. Hunting, who looked like a certainty for center on account of his height. VVe started on our way to the class D county championship by defeating Gobles on our own Hoor by a score of 17-11, and in a return game on their floor by a score of 14-5. Our next class ID victory was against the small but fast Mattawan squad. 52
