28 THE GOLDEN-ROD than ever, and Bennett undoubtedly will use to the best advantage all the veteran material available. HOCKEY On December tenth Mr. Mitchell called out candidates for the hockey team. About thirty fellows responded. Mr. Mitchell has kindly consented to act as coach for the hockey team and under his leadership we hope to have a very fast team. He talked briefly on the fundamentals and rules of the game and gave the boys several ideas of how the game should be played. The seven-man team will be used. After the various inter-class games have been held, the best players will be picked for a school team and other schools will be challenged. FRESHMEN' 1 — SOPHOMORES 1 January 6. 1920. The two lower classes played the first game in the inter- class hockey championship series on Butler’s Pond before a large crowd. Armstrong scored for the Sophs at the close of the first half. Heap tied the score in the second half. Guynen and Dingwell played well for the Freshmen. Armstrong’s and especially Randall’s fast work for the Sophs was the feature of the game. The lineup: FRESHMEN SOPHOMORES Dingwell r-g- Hussey Guynen c. Randall Kenney r. Jones LaCroix 1-g- Coombs Heap c.p. Ferguson White P- Rankin Keating g- Armstrong JUNIORS 1 — SENIORS 0 January 16. The Juniors defeated the Seniors 1 to 0 in a very close hockey game on Butler’s Pond. The Seniors experienced some hard luck when they shot the puck through their own goal by an accidental shot. Otherwise, the puck was kept well in the Junior territory throughout the game. Davis played an excellent game for the Juniors, and Mullarkey and Shync featured for the Seniors.

Judging from the attendance at the first few games and the enthusiasm shown, this indoor sport will be as popular as ever. Mr. Xissen of the faculty has been se- cured as coach, and he has arranged a schedule whereby there are, on an average, two games every week. These games will be continued through March and on the twenty-sixth of that month the two class teams having the highest percentage will contend for the cham- pionship title. The following basket- ball captains have been elected: Johnson for the Seniors; Leavitt, Juniors; and Dodge, Sophomores. These captains and their followers will undoubtedly provide some interesting sport during the season. JUNIORS 17 — SENIORS 12 January 16. In the first basketball game of the season, the Junior five de- feated the Seniors 17 to 12. The Seniors had the upper hand in the first half when they led 8 to 7. In the second half, the Juniors, by united team work, scored over their opponents and won the game. Johnson and Carter played well for the Seniors. Jenkins and Davis per- formed well for the winners.

Don’t you think it would improve the appearance of your magazine to put your advertisements together rather than to scatter them as you do now? e Notes The Arlington High School Clarion, Arlington, Mass.— An exceedingly interesting magazine. The introduction of a school directory into your magazine is unusual, but is a good addition. The Industrial School Magazine. Golden, Colorado— Such a good magazine as yours ought to mention its Exchanges. Comments on the part of one school regarding the work of another school are always help- ful. Can’t you suggest ways by which your Exchanges may improve? WHAT OTHER SCHOOLS ARE DOING It may interest our Spanish Depart- ment to hear of a successful Spanish Club existing in the Fitchburg High School at Fitchburg, Mass. The object of this Club is to encourage students in the study and use of the Spanish lan- guage. All proceedings in the Club are carried on in Spanish. We are sure the students will derive a great amount of pleasure and benefit from organizations of this sort. Gladys Jenkins, Exchange Editor.
