In and Cui 'ro Win lHEIlll'llllillllllllllllllll f' GOLF AND SWIMMING During warm spring days, it seems as though many of the business executives are bitten by that little golf bug. But this little pest has also busied himself annoying teachers by using his charm on already weakened by spring fever, pupils. Some of Harper's now prominent and enthusiastic golfers can be found practicing at Marquette Park and playing at jackson Park every pleasant day. While on the subject of holes, Harper's aquatic artists may be found frequenting one of their favorite swimming holes to limber up and keep in shape for next year's team and swim meets. Although Harper has not been up with the best high school teams they are becoming a promising threat in the city meets. I Page 19
