What other conclusion could we draw than that Batavia is jealous of our good teams and wants our coach because of his reputa- tion for making teams? We're mighty sorry to have him go, especially to Bata- via, but, with the start he has given our teams, we ought to be up i11 the Cunningham class next year instead of the Pierce tarrowl. We'll try to make him feel proud of us even though he is our rival. John Murdock and Freeman -Ellingham members of the Sophomore class, have been engaged to play in an orchestra at Keuka Lake during the summer season. They plan to finish the year's school work in Penn Yan.
