The colors decided ' upon were blue with gray overtone. The name of the book and the year will be printed in the center of the cover. INTEREST RAGE8 IN INTRAMURAL Harry received the ball, he drove down to the cornerjstopped pivoted and shot ---- no, he dldn't score, there was a foul on the play. Every noon this same story could be written about the ball games ln the gym. 'mere ls plenty of fight an .scrap with good clean playing at all times. , h On Monday, Wednesday, and Fri- day the seventh and eighth grade boys use the floor. There are 45 boys divided into six teams- therefore, they play once a week. During the first semester the eighth grade boys acted as cap- tain, but now the seventh grade has taken over. On Thursday the fifth and six- th grades play - ball. They have four teams. They are little boys but they are mighty. Cn Tuesday the second team re- serves and freshman boys play. These Tuesday games develop into heated battles at times. Not only do we use the boys in play but also as officials. High School boys work all the games. The value 'ofa team play is learned and it serves as s fonn of entertainment for the students .at noon. ' ' Nr.
