P A In athletics the year has been very successful. The 1926 baseball team won the city championship' the football team the city championship' the 192.7 indoor track team the city championship' the basketball team placed third in the city race and the swimming teams won the city and state championship. - The debating team tied with Eastern in the city contest. The house debating teams had the most suc' cessful season in the history of the school with Betsy Ross standing in first place and Wilson in a close second. - Northwestern maintains the following publications: a weekly newspaper the Colt ' a monthly the Odds and Ends' and an annual the Norwester. All of them compare favorably with the best high school .- publications in the country. ' From the importance given to extra curricular activities some may conclude that these are the most im- ? rtant parts of the school, but such is not the case. Daily class room work is always emphasized, and the Q aculty keep in mind that the high school is training young people to be worthy citizens of a great city and a - E great nation. lg I! B. J.
