BULLDOGS With a score in every quarter, the Minute Men raked the Hay- makers from Cozad to stack up a 25-6 Victory here September 30. Early in the first quarter, Stuckey raced 43 yards through the Cozad aggregation for the first counter. In the second canto, Kline scored for Cozad but the kick was void. A pass in the same period from Tay- lor to Stuckey provided an advance that led to Taylor's plunge for an- other goal before the whistle sound- ed. Side-flanked by Taylor, Britton made a scintillating run for 42 yards that started Lexington goal- ward early in the third quarter. Warren scored. The final tally came in the fourth period after a series of passes made it possible for Stuckey to chalk up the fourth score. His kick split the uprights. THE HUDDLE . Q W- Z a' 'E f 'W The junior high team faced a 14-0 defeat Friday at Holdrege. Dean France and Dale Foreman seemed to come through with flying colors in the backfield, while Ad- ams, Thinnes, Cummins and Pri- deaux were the outstanding bat- tlers in the line. Lexington reserves were really surprised when they were told Wed- nesday night that they had played an hour and forty-five minutes in a hard-fought battle against the Over- ton Eagles. The game was more for practice than for victory. The scrimmage ended in a scoreless tie. Charles Duffey, senior, whose right wing was broken Friday night in the Cozad riot, will not be able to see service on the Minute Men schedule again. He and Tucker have been alternating in Lexing- ton's forward wall. Have you ever seen El Capitan in a football suit? Well, if you have- n't, it's too late now, but Hayes of Cozad was the example. Anyway that's what Staton said, when he tried to shove the big Haymaker into a rick Friday night. ,, ,M Snatching two touchdowns in the first quarter, the Bulldogs were well on their way to the final chalk-up of 31-7 against the Minute Men at North Platte, Friday afternoon. A pass from Taylor to Stuckey from the 16-yard line netted a score after North Platte's second touch- down. Stuckey's kick added the point. extra The half ended 12-7, but in the third canto, North Platte scored again after a steady march goal- Ward. Two more touchdowns of 50-yard and 20-yard runs in the fourth quar- ter just about tells the story for North Platte with a final victorious kick for extra point. A game chart indicates that ground gainers found spiky travel- ing through the Bulldog line. A few long runs by Stuckey and Britton, and some near-hurdling plunges by Taylor were the bright spots in a long afternoon of hard fighting for the linemen. Onlookers reported that Breen was easily the outstanding player for North Platte, and that the Bull- dogs are hard drivers with good de- fensive tactics. Next busiest man, besides the coach and team, was Banks, student manager for Lexington. With a score board in one hand and a pen- cil in the other, he craned neck and hips to record plays during the quarters. When a charge sent Stuckey out like a light, it was Bill who carried him to the dressing room and sat by him. When a cleat came off a Bulldog's shoe and slithered Paul Hanson's football pants and cut his hip, it was Bill who administered first aid. Meanwhile the game went on! No wonder he had to record, Missed a few plays here. All in all, it was a glorious tri- umph for Bulldogs for the Lexington every dog has his the Bison run here ning. and a sad story warriors, but if day, then watch next Friday eve- See THE MINUTE MAN for Snappy Service - Tasty Meals x Ray Bredenkamp, sturdy end, is a reliable senior who is sweeping down many of the opponents' slicing charges. Ray lettered his first year with the Minute Men last year. His favorite sport is football - next favorite, basketball. Reticent about expressing his opin- ion, he never has to retract rash statements. Others may rant and rave on the outcome of a game- not Ray.

fw CURRICULAR ACTIVITY Above are featured views representing the various means Lexington high school offers its student body in an attempt to have them prepare themselves for lives of service, in such a way as to bring greatest good to their fellowmen and to their God. NORMAL TRAINING-In the upper left corner find the normal training students learning a folk dance in preparation for teaching. A two-year preparatory course, normal training provides efficient training for successful teaching in the rural schools upon passage of exam- inations submitted by the State Superintendent of In- struction. COLLEGE PREPARATORY-To the right of this you will find the Chemistry class busy solving the mysteries of lifevscience being only one of the many requirements for college entrance. COMMER- CIAL-Next below, catch a glimpse of the fifth-hour typing class--a small representation of the one hun- dred fifty pupils registered for the course in commerce. This course offers sufficient training for immediate livelihood to those who take full advantage of oppor- tunities offered. VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE-To the right, the Future Farmers of America indulge in a field trip, learning how to get one hundred per cent returns from Mother Earth. This course in vo- cational agriculture is a three-year course, including i ,,,,,, L crops, soils, farm management, and farm mechanics. HOME ECONOMICS-In the center, note the ever- popular home economics course which provides a thorough home making and personality building set- up with the aid of well-equipped cooking and sewing laboratories. Last year the course was extended to three years, thus including instruction in child care and home management. MANUAL ARTSfIn con- junction with agriculture, and yetadistinct vocational course within itself, is the ever practical manual arts course. Because of a well-equipped shop and an effic- ient instructor, students are offered an opportunity to be handy men or to specialize in building with its accompanying technique. MUSIC4That music is ever gaining a more prominent role in the curriculum of the high schools is well in evidence in Lexington High in the sixty-piece band, which is the pride and joy of all Minute Men and their followers, the choruses: vo- cal groupsg and instrumental ensembles, all of which are included in the music schedule of the school. GENERALdOf course, any of the nearly four hun- dred pupils, unable to decide upon specialization in high school, have a variety of subjects from which to choose for a general course lending toward graduation.
