Edwards, Barton Bart was the star basket shooter of our High School team in his four years at school, ' 19, ' 20, ' 21, ' 22.

In this game a net is used and he is so used to saying Jea ' net ' te that we thought — well — you know how ' tis. EggerTj Arthur Art has been a good student and by everybody.
