THE PORCUPINE a score of 24 to 13. All the fellows played good ball, Proc- tor and A. Lee especially. The game was snappy and fast, from start to finish, and was clean and sportsmanlike. This is the third time S. R. H. S. has played Lowell, and we have won two out of the three games. This year we shall enter the Academic Series of games, and we will do our best to win the League. To do this we must have a strong team, so everyone that can be sure and turn out for practice. If you don’t play, be sure and show up at the game and yell for us. Yell, and we will try and see that your yelling is not in vain. Be at the next game and see. It will be some time before we start track athletics, but when we do we will have a team that is worth something. We have a track captain, Lewis Lambert, who will do everything in his power to help and interest all in the track work. Fellows training have two tracks at their disposal, Pierce Bros.’ track and our own school track. We loose Gray, Proctor and McDaniels, but we will try and make up for their loss. The first meet we will have will be the Inter-class, and in this meet we want everyone who can wiggle to turn out and do the best he can for his class. Now, Freshmen, get out and run, and you may sur- prise some of the old hands by taking a first or a second place.

THE PORCUPINE 21 this record, together with your English record, which de- termines whether or not you shall be permitted to enter the contest. The cup has been won only twice before; by boys both times. It is time for the girls to show what they can do. It is also time for the boys to “get busy” and see if they can keep it. Now that we have a new year, a new term and a lot of new material we ought to do great things in athletics.. To do this we must work hard and faithfully and try to perfect ourselves in some line of work. Our last year’s Track Team did great things, and so will we again. Our Basketball Tear did the same, and we will do that again. Now, Freshmen, as soon as the time comes Start in to train, be sure and turn out with a will and help old Santa Rosa High with all your might. We will most likely have started basketball by the time this issue is published, and we hope by that time to have at least two good teams picked. Captain Lee has among his veterans Woolley, G. Lee and C. Whitney, while Jeans, Lawrence, Miller, Snieder, Lambert, Coolley, Sanders and others will also try and make the team. There are most likely a number of Freshmen who can play the game. Well, .¥reshies, get out and try and show us what you are good for. Last year, on December 5th, the S. R. H. S. Team, com- posed of A. Lee, G. Lee, G. Proctor, E. Woolley and C. Whitney, played and defeated a team from Lowell High by

THE PORCUPINE Girls Basket Ball On December 6th we again played Healdsburg, but this time on our own ground. The game, on account of being very close, was the most exciting one played last term. It was a quick game and splendid team work was shown on both sides.. At the end of the first half the score stood 6—1 in our favor, and the final score was 7—8, with a victory for us, and a well-earned one. The team is steadily improving and we hope that the decisive game with Healdsburg will add another victory:for us. The championship of Northern California lies between their team and ours , and with the right kind of support it will be ours. Now the support we need can be obtained largely from the Freshmen, and we trust that it will be give. We expect to have some games soon, and there are always plenty of chances on the team for good players, as is the case at present. Even though you cannot make the team, practice anyway, for it always pays to get a good start. How dear to our hearts is the steady subscriber, Who pays in advance at the birth of the year; Who lays down his money and does it quite gladly, And casts ‘round the office a halo of cheer. How welcome he is when he steps up to pay us, How he makes our hearts throb, how he makes our eyes dance, We outwardly thank him, and inwardly bless him— The steady subscriber who pays in advance. —Ex HAHMAN DRUG CO.
