EDITORIAL BASKETBALL FOR GIRLS Clota Belle Sanders Girls, basketball has not bcon carried out extensively in Spring Lake High School, due to the condition of our Open Air Gym- nasium. The question arises In our minds, should girls be allowed to play? It Is said that basketball Is too strenuous for girls, but It la our opinion that they need the ex- ercise which they do not get sit- ting on the cottage steps or In Room 15. If it Is handled correct- ly. It will not barm a girl physic- ally and It will certainly Instil In their minds the spirit of compe- tition and good sportsmanship. We admire the person who has the over for their school enough to fight for Its honor and fame. This year will be the first year for us to play. The challenge comes to us as high school girls to work and practice hard, as there are few experienced players in high school. With proper coaching and co-operation on the part of the players, there is no reason why Spring Lake should not make a good showing In the county this year. So let’s get in there and Fight! Fight! Fight! and we feel certain that you will never re- gret your effort. News Flash! Special Feature. Thursday evening. September 17, 1936 at 3:59 and 25 seconds P. M. Carl Hagen. Honorable Senior, de- cided to feel at ease. Leaning back comfortably In his chair, he was thinking whom he would get In case his present girl should quit him. Suddenly he thought of one and as his brain reflected on his muscles, they jerked, thereby caus ing his chair to swap ends. This was followed by an uproar of the students and the laugh was on Carl. FACULTY MEMBERS ENTERTAINED Classes Organize SENIOR CLASS ORGANIZES The members of the Spring Lake faculty were entertained Thursday evening, September 17, by Superintendent and Mrs. Edel- mon.

You should have seen Carl Hag- en the other day. We don’t know about his falling head over heels In love, but he surely fell head over heels on the floor. Last week pictures of the dif- ferent grades were taken. Bernice Hyde asked why the ex-graduates were not taken. Of course this put Edna to thinking because Bernice and Foy are the only ex-graduates going to school. We see that the girls are behind the football .coach and team with their well developed lungs. Stay right In there girls and N. R. A. (do your part). Many of the Spring Lake stud- ents took interesting trips during the summer vacation: Edna Pack- ard went to Dallas and Hereford; Ethel Hite spent three weeks In Glenmora.

The walls of the building are more than halt finished In spite of delays caused by weather and lack of materials. The new building will provide a playing court 72 ft. by 40 ft. of maple or beech flooring. Selec- tion of the floor has not been made but will be made in the near future from samples receiv- ed by the superintendent. Tho building will provide seat- ing room for more than five hun- dred persons at a baaketball game and approximately one thousand during dramatlo production on the stage. The walls of the building will stand twenty feet high, glvinr ample head room for basketball play. It will be covered with a curved roof supported by four steel truses that rest upon col- umns of tile and reinforced con- crete. It will meet one of our most felt needs , was the comment made by Mr. Edelmon, superin- tendent of the school when asked about the building.

Each teach- er checks hla or her roll at the beginning of each class period and within five minutes after the bell the list of absentees Is sent to the office and checked or re- corded. This is done in order to keep a closer check on the stu- dents and see that they are at- tending every class. If a student (a present in one class and then absent In another, the faculty will know he la cutting class for some reason. While applying for a Job Mary Jane was asked If she was mar- ried. “No Mam.” she replied, but I'm In the market.

Grass Is being set out In the front of the school build- ings larger walks are being made, more rooms are being made In the main building and the gym Is being completed. These things are being con- structed for our pleasure and con- venience. and one must remember to appreciate them for what they are. For the first part of the year we must stand by and watch things progress and then the last part of the year we may enjoy using the new Improvements. The co-operation of the many school children In theae undertak- ings will help to make a much better school, school ground, and a much more beautiful place to attend school. We must appreciate these new Improvements enough io co-oper- ate and our rewards will be the things that we have hoped for, for so long. AGRICULTURE CLASS PREPARES EXHIBIT During this week Mr. Nix. the agriculture teacher, has had the Agriculture I Class to sow wheat and plant Sudan grass in small plots which are to be exhibited in connection with a Pig Production Exhibit at the Lubbock Fair. The exhibit Is sponsored by the F. F. A. boya and Mr. Nix. Mrs. Hite: Now what’s hap- pened. Ethel? Ethel: Oh. you left the kitchen door open and the wind blew my cook book shut. Now.

The second touchdown for Spring Lake came early In the Hite again carried the ball for ten yards around end. Friona attempted four forward passes. three of which were incomplete and one Intercepted. Spring Lake’s two pass attempts were incomplete. The starting line-up were: The summer vacation Is now ov- er and let us. fellow students, settle down for a little school work. Begin to work now; don't wait until time for an exam. Let a littlo knowledge settle In your head at all times. If you cram your studies, your subjects will probably mix and if they ever settle, they will be as crossed as the hair on your head. Beside . It Is hard to do 30 days of work In two or three. If It Is at all possible, be at school with a sunny smile each day. If you miss school and get behind In your work, you will get discouraged. If you are not Intere- estod In school, you will get very little out of it. Try to enjoy your classes, and you will! Th teach- ers can't make the school Inter- esting by themselves. You will reap according to what you sow. Don't put anything off that you can do today. Let us make a new school year resolution to study each school day and keep up with our work.

JUNIORS SELECT PINS AND RINOS W)IO S WHO OF THE SENIOR CLASS FROM THE EDITOR'S CHAIR The llalfour Award We have heard Mr. Edelmon ex- plain the Balfour Award and we find an article for this issue of the Wolverine explaining It to the public. We are moved to add our feeble voice to the discussion. The award is an award of hon- or for the one senior student of each year who is judged from the standpoint of loyalty, leadership, and achievement. This means the best all-around person of the sen- ior class. What higher honor could be awarded to any member of the class? We’d much rather have this than to be valedictorian or salutatortan, If we had our choice. We wonder how many of the sen- iors class feel that same way a- bout It as we do. We also wonder if the senior student understands yet Just what It will mean to re- ceive or not to receive this award at the end of school. Has ho thought that far ahead? We think. Mr. Senior, that this is the time for you to think of It. After all the faculty will have records of your achievements for the entire year and they will bo able to remember concerning loy- alty and leadership ss far back as September and October. How about comparing yourself with other members of the class and see for yourself Just where you rank? A little self criticism may prove valuable towards correcting your faults. Whom do you have to live with more than yourself? Wo say that If you consciously work for this award and don't succeed you will have a more lik- able personality and a finer char- acter at the end of school than you do now; so will have lost nothing and gained a lot. Let us not say. Every man Is the architect of his own fortune; but let us say. Every man Is the architect of his own character.”— G. D. Boardman. The Juniors met Thursday. Sep- tember 24, In order to select the pins and rings. The pins are being bought this year and rings which will match the pins will be bought next year. The pins are solid and have a blue set mounted with the crest which the school adopted. The crest has an old English S on It with Spring Lake printed at the botton. The Banner was selected for the guard which is attached to the pin by a small gold chain. The Banner Is gold and covered with blue enamel with 1937 in gold letters on the enamel. The rings for next year match the pins, and are similar to the rings selected by this year's sen- iors with the exception of the stone. The 1937 class chose a blue stone for their rings. RINGS TO UK RECEIVED MIDDLE OF NOVEMBER ROSE PETALS THOUGHT OF THE WEEK Speak well of every one If you speak of them at all—none of us are so very good.—Elbert Hub- bard. The school building and grounds are looking like a different place With all these new walks, lawns, rooms, etc.. It seems like a “big school. Spring Lake surely is growing. The new gymnasium is a rep for tho school. Although the weather conditions have hind- ered the progress of the building. It Is growing fast and the boys and girls as well as the teachers and community are very anxious to gel to use the gym. The Glee Club's and Mother Singer's oper- etta will probably be the first dramatic production In the new auditorium. Other activities are Just waiting for a place large e- nough to accomodate the crowd. This will be a busy community when the building is complete. Mr. Edelmon surely has a fine typing class almost any time In the day one can pass the room and hear three or four typewriters tapping. Although the pep squad girl's knees are tender from kneeling Friday to make their S. L. S.. It was worth the effort. The girls are planning big on their uni- forms this year. The Seniors. Juniors and Sopho- mores voted to standardise the white enamel crest for their rings. This crest will always represent Spring Lake High School and no other school can obtain It. You should be proud of tho Seniors of 1936-37 for selecting this beauti- ful crest for your school. Lewell Hite, son of Mr. and Mrs. R. P. Hite, was born March a. 1920, at Vernon.

(Continued noxt week) Yellow gold rings set with a ruby stone which has a crest In the center of It were selected by the 1937 seniors of Spring Lake High School from samples shown by the salesman of the Balfour Jewelers of Attlcbourgh. Mass. The seniors were unanimous in their choice of this ring. The crest consists of an old English S with Spring Lake written undor It and a Roman ornament on each aide. This is placed on top of the ruby which Is oblong In shape. The shanks of the rings carries 19 on one aide and 37 In the oth- er In modernistic figure. The sen- iors are expecting the rings by the middle of November. The crest has been adopted for Spring Lake School and is to bo on all ring and pins which rep- resent Spring Lake High School. This crest may be placed on any type ring. This allows for change in style and general appearance of the rings, and yet Spring Lake's emblem will become sig- nificant through the years. The school is to receive a Bal- four award for the high ranking senior studont of six senior class- es for placing a three year con- tract with the company. This is a definite advantage for ordering from the Balfour com- pany. yet no sacrifice has been made on the quality of tho Jew ai- ry and the price of the Balfour Jewelry compares satisfactorily with the price of similar qua'lly merchandise of other companies. The juniors and sophomores were consulted In the adoption of the crest and allowed to makj se- lections for pins and rings to bo paid for and received when the proper time arrive- .

CONDUCT IN STUDV HALL Due to a lot of noise going on in tho achool building—caused by the hammering and sawing of the workmen. It la undoubtedly hard for the students to get their minds concentrated on their stu- dies In the study hall. They can't seem to think coherently, or get their minds on what they are try- dts-lnterested, and the frlst thing Ing to do; therefore they become Ing with the other students near we notice Is that they are vlslt- thcm. This not only disturbs the Ing with the other students near them. This not only disturbs the students who are trying to study, but It also causes the teacher con- siderable trouble. So students, let's have a little respect for our study-hall teach er and our fellowmen, and If we can't spend our time studying, we can at least be quiet, for there may be some who wish to study. We may all wish that we had taken advantage of the study-halls too. when our six-weeks teats and mid-term exams come rolling long. SUCK FLOOR Tho other day Just before his- tory clams, which Is held In Room 18, Margarett Cranflll had some Important business at Mr. Bodecker's desk, and upon hearing some one down In the hall, she made a wild rush for her seat. Evidently the floor was very slick. Her foot slipp- ed. She fell and went sliding down the Isle. Knee skates might prove helpful In such a situation! Margie Lee White, who has a back desk which does not have the scat connection, was attempting to get a book from her desk. She grabbed tho top of the desk. Her feet slipped out from under her and natur- ally she sat down on the floor. She didn't waste any time or energy In getting from her feet to the floor, either.

From morning to night and sometimes when we sleep we talk. The volcea of our loved ones are dear to ua and we treasure them. If they are forev- er ceaaed It la aad. There are the common, homey words with which we talk with over loved onea; the inspiring words we throw to our despond- ent friend; the words young lov- ers find; and the words we call hymns and psalms. With such high uses of words, wa should never use them to hurt people. Nevertheless, that Is a dally tragedy. Many souls arc seared each day by vile words. Let your words fall as gentle as the dew on the grssa whose presence we do not notice until we see the diamonds glittering. Practice sets have been received by the bookkeeping class. This Is the first of three sets which are to be worked up during the first semester. This set contains accounts for a filling station.

That will go for you too. for when the Glee Club, with the help of the Mother's Club pre- sents the Operetta—It Is going to be a wow! And you are going to miss something If you miss It— So If you have to leave your curls un-flnlshed you will be for- given. After all the singers expect to be the center of attraction. If you think the girls are not learning to sing. Just turn the radio dial one day soon .and hear them from Amarillo or Lubbock. In other words they are planning to do things this year. A new sponsor will be elected at their next meeting the 20th of October. Miss Bernice Westbrook. the Demonstration Agent, gave re- port cards to all old members to fill out.

Between The Book Ends Found! A book In the library: How to Live on Twenty-four Hours a Day. The author. Arn- old Bennett, cleverly points out that everyone has the same a- mount of time each day—twenty- four hours. He strikes most of us when he says that people are painfully existing each day and feel that when they have more time. they will do the things that will cause them to live. There is no more time to be had. Peo- ple have all the time there is each day—thats the limit. Outside of a person's working hours, how does he spend his time? True, he sleeps, eats, converses with his friends and attends recreational programs. But even that does not take all of the remaining hours. Bennett figures that a minimum of seven hours and a half a week are to- tally wasted that could be used to such an advantage as to dis- tinguish between living fully and comfortably and merely existing or muddling through life. Whatever one Is Interested In. one can spend seven hours on with great satis- faction. The book does not set up cer- tain rules, but It suggests and ex- plains a formula which one might pattern one's life by. It Is easy and Interesting reading. The Petersburg Buffaloes gave Spring Lake their first defeat of the season. The scores were 13 to 0 In favor of Petersburg. The Buffaloes scored late In first quarter when they intercepted one of the Wolverines forward passes to sprint 18 yards to touchdown. The try for the extra point was unsuccessful .

ROSE PETALS EDITORIAL Learn The Work More Impor- tant than Good Grades Boys and girls, to learn the work which is given to you In your classes Is more Important than to obtain a good grade. It is better to make a grade of C on work you have learned than to make a grade of A by using some one clse's work which you have not learned. As Mr. Edelmon told you In the last assembly. “It is very easy to get make-up work by using another pupil's work. If you do this, you will probably fall the examinations. You should realise that your parents are sacrificing for you to get an education. Show them and your teacrer that you want to get an education. What mother or father Is it that doesn't want his or her child to make good grades, get a good education, be honored, and everyone think well of them? There Is no greater thrill or happinees in your school work than when Commencement Night comes, and your diploma is pre- sented to you.And. oh. how much better you will feel If you have gotten It honestly! MR EDELMON SPEAKS TO STUDENTS OCT. 22 Mr. Edelmon. the superinten- dent. spoke to the high school students about their grades In an assembly held in room 16. Oct. 22 He announced the students who were falling In one or more sub- jects and a too those who were heading the j list of making the highest grades. Mr. Edelmon told the students that their later life depended upon what they did now. He said If they were plan- ning to pass their courses It was time they were getting started working. Very few assemblies are being held since there Is no longer an auditorium in the school building and the gym. is not completed. Regular assembly meetings will be held for the different school groups when arrangements can be made In the gymnasium. The first six-week's report was given Thursday. October 22. There Is a large space for Improvment. Now that we are more acquainted with school after the summer va- cation. let's go to work! It Isn't too late to try now but It wlU be some day. Why do we go lo school. Mr. Edelmon said. “A school is to de- velopc better citizens. What will become of the next generation If we are noteducatcd. Do we not want to advance above the gen- erations preceding ours?’Of course we want to grow In ideas and ways. Now Is the time to start! “Toll spells success. TRYING “I'll try Is a soldier. “I will Is a king; Be sure they are near When the school bells ring. When school days are over. And boys are men. I’ll try and I will Are good friends then. Mr. Boedeker— Margaret Lee! This chicken has no wishbone.' Margaret Lee— He was a hap- py and contented chicken and had nothing to wish for. Von— Dad. what are the holes In this board? Mr. Edelmon— Those are knot holes. Von. (after consideration)— Well, If they're not holee. what are they? often discouraged. Whatever Spring Lake can do to make play more Interesting for girls. It should do so. The custom of keeping Hallo- we'en night has come to us from the Celts of Great Brltlan whose religion was directed by priests called Druids. On the eve of November 1st. there wae a sol- emn ceremony. The Druids gath- ered around a fire that had been burning through the year. At a signal they quenched the fire and another was started. The peo- ple of the valley raised a great shout and other fires on hillsides answered the sacred flame. Then, the people were satisfied. The custom of playing pranks1 came from the old Idea that It! was witches' night. and all! strange and wild powers were abroad to do mischief, but just when and where the thought a- rose. no one seems to know. Where Hallowe’en Originated (By Fern I-an dm) Mr. Boedeker has never fully decided to have his hair set—says Elsie. Mr. Edelson—“I see that In one foreign country a wife can be bought for a dollar. Mrs. Edelmon— That's awful.” Mr. Edolmon— Oh, X guess a good wife is worth It. AMBITION LuclUe J—“All men are fools. Joe— Yes. ws were made fools an you girls would't be old maids. Bstter to strive and climb. And never reach the goal. Than to drift along with time. An aimless, worthless soul. Aye. better climb and fall. Or sow. though the yield be small. Than to throw away day after day. And never strive at all. —Margarot Sangster. Anyone who Is willing to work can find some way of using hla spare time. A good many stud- ents pretend to be studying when they are not. No teacher can see that a number of students are busy. It lin t his duty. We must do It ourselves. Respect your class officers e- nough not to criticize falsely. If you have never been a president, you don't know how difficult It Is to have order nor how dlzcourag- Ing It la If you can't have order. Do your part by being attentive and speak only when you have, been addressed by the president.! If the majority of the class votes J opposite your opinion, let It be. that way and don't say anymore | about It. Whatever you do don't lay the blame on the president.! He has enough weight on his shoulder. Look for your own faults, but look for good In oth- ers. Who’s Who Of The Senior Class Time U too short to waste. Time Is always on the wing.

If you had lived hundreds of years ago. you would have been quite certain that every sound you heard after dark on October 31. was sure to be a witch, or a spirit, or a hobgob- lin of some sort; for properly speaking. Hallowe’en does not be- gin till after the sun Is down, and no self respecting ghost would think of walktn around In day- light. now would he? There was a time. long ago. when people really did believe that on Hallowe'en ghosts and supernatural beings wandered a- round on the earth anfl played all sorts of pranks. However, we know today that all these charms and spells were nonsense; never- theless. It Is great fun to make- believe. so we copy the old sup- erstitions rites of Hallowe'en, and have lots of fun with them. Like most of our holidays. Hal- lowe'en dates back to very early times. Before the days of Chris- tianity there were people living In England who were called Celts. These people worshiped Pagan gods, and the priests of their re- ligion called Druids. On the first of November a great autumn fes- tival was held. Huge fires were lighted In honor of their aun-god because, by his warm rays, he had ripened their fields of grain. The Druids believed that every year, on the eve of this ancient harvest festival, tne lord of death called back to earth the souls of all the wicked dead persons who had been condemned lo punlah- held responsible for all Rinds of mysterious happenings. When Christianity look the place of the heathen religion in England, the Church had so many saints to honor that It was im- possible to give a day to everyone. For ibis reason, one day. Novem- ber 1. was chosen for honoring all the aalnts. and was called All Saints' Day. The night before all Saints' Day was called “All Hallow's Eve. which we have shortened to Hallowe'en. Before long, the old festival of the Druids fell and the name “Hallowe’en” came to be associated among them and Is held till this day. At any rate, we have this holi- day to make merry with. even though we can give no better rea- son for our pranks than— A lit- tle nor.sens� now and then la re- lished by the wisest men. Hazel—Aren't ants funny little things? They work and work, and never play. Babe—Oh. I don't Know about that, every Ume I go on a picnic they are there. Wlx— See that man over there?

It Is not Illuminated to the eyes of others. It Is through an every ready smile, a desire to try and words of appreciation that this Is made possible. Sportsmanship can be made a practical thing in our lives If we wish It to be. It can become a part of us at work. play, or what- ever we might be. The saying Practice makes perfect might be our goal as a sport, for as we practice so shall we climb. When we are being a sport we are not only growing ourselves, but we are giving the people that we come In contact with a desire to be better sports also. If we possess a good trait, it is will to share It. The potential foundation of sport within each individual may be brought to view by per- petual practices In the field of sportsmanship.

It Is a thrill that comes once In a life time and those seniors really got their share. If you see them sitting a- round admiring It all the time, Just remember you were one day a senior or will be some day.

NOSEY GYM CEILING CELOTEX After making a careful study of the situation, th achool board decided to put a celling in the new gymnasium. There are three advantages to be derived from th celling. It will reduce the echo of the building; It will save 3125 on th cost of th heating plant In th beginning, and It wlU save enough heat equal to th amount to heat a six room house Tr material being used for thl celling is celotex. Work was be- gun December 1 and will be com- pleted by December 10.

BETWEEN THE BOOKENDS JUST OVER THE HILL By Margaret Slattery What is success? If you want to know what It Is and how to ac- complish It. read the book Just Over the Hill.” This book is very easily rend and Is worth your lime to read it. The author takes the different traits which go to help make suc- cess and tells about each one of them. Illustrations from everyday life are used. No man Is self-made. Other peo- ple hive Influenced his life one way or another. Perhaps one does not think about helping someone else make a success, but he does. There are three assets which are very necessary to anyone wish- ing to succeed: cheerfulness, cour- tesy and concentration. Try to be cheerful; this is on asset e- very one likes for other people to have. No one likes to be laugh- ed at or made fun of; therefore, be courteous enough to not do unbecoming things. Concentration, last but not least, comes in handy to anyone. Nothing can be accom- plished wltrout. flrsf, much thought. Character is made Just what you make it. Many things go to make a good character: sincerity, cooperation, unselfishness, cheer- fulness, courtesy, consideration, honesty and intelligence. Charac- ter influences success. If you are wondering what Is “just over the hill” for you. go to work and make it success. If e- nough effort Is put forth, you will expect to meet success Just over the hill.” THE THANKFUL SOI’HMOKE CLASS Douglas Coker Is thankful that he doesn’t have to write another Silas Marner theme in English.

Those to enroll arc Dorothy Messer from Oklahoma in the fourth grade. Marion Hen- derson from Oklahoma In the fifth grade and James Messer of Oklaroma in the third grade. Jim- mie Ray Banks withdrew from the third grade and Is going to Okla- homa. Teacher Exchange Grades Miss .Wilson and Miss Adkinson exchanged grades beginning Mon- day. Miss Wilson is now teaching the pupils of the third grade and Miss Adklsson is taking one div- ision of the first grade. Mias Wil- son is a graduate of McMurry and Miss Adklsson is a graudate of Texas Tech. - Cotton Project I I The second grade pupils have Just completed, a project on cot- ton. Some cotton was brought to | school and the students seeded It ss did the colonial people. The cotton was tren made into little bales. They also made booklets and drew pictures. Work is being done on the Roots in the new gymnasium. The atage floor has been completed and the court floor is to be covered with an all American non-allppery floor finish. Thirty gallons has been bought for this purpose. THOUGHT OF THE WEEK He that takes time to think and consider will act more wisely than he that acta hastily and on Im- pulse.—C. Simmons. AGRICULTURE NOTES The agriculture class haa Just completed a unit of work in the production and marketing of cot- ton. They have learned that a cot- ton buyer will not buy cotton on a rainy day. because of the dif- ference In the light. The light on a rainy day makes cotton look dark In color and the correct grade cannot be determined. They have also been studying the marketing of eggs. The lead- ing states in egg production in 1932-33 wax Iowa. Ohio. Missouri. California. Pennsylvania. Illinois Texss. Minnesota. New York, and Wisconsin. They also learned that by cold storage eggs can be kept over a period of time, while In the fall or winter they can be marketed to restuarants etc., with a good profit. JOLLY JUNIORS I think the Juniors have been rather Jolly up until the present time, but they arn’t so enthusias- tic now. because their pins have, n’t come in. If you see any smoke around the school rouse, you will know that It la Hollis, because the other day he made this re- mark-- Boy. I'm going up In smoke if my claas pin doesn't hur- ry and come. Why does Lucille Johnston think so much of that song Lights Out?” We never noticed her lik- ing it so much until she made that trip to Hart, but now she goes around singing it about half trs time. I wonder why Travis sent her dress to the tailor shop late Sun- day night? Since getting ft back, she has decided to wear another bell with it. See Travis for other details. I don't know whether Eloise Holland is getting reckless or popular, but she had two wrecks during the same week. Several of the students have been expressing what they were thankful for. but I trlnk Joe la more thankful than the rest, be- cause he doesn't have to carry an English book around with him. I wonder If Helen lost her giggle the other night at Muleahoe. Did you Helen ? Why does Toby like to wash her hands so much in Science class? I think are has caught her a fel- low who works the gymnasium, and sho likes to look out the win- dow. Margie Lee haa been resenting the W In her last name because she has to be last toglve talks In English class. I wonder what ahe would like to change It to? Well, since this Is the beginning of a new six weeks we Juniors have to get busy, so will see you next week. BOYS HOLD OPPONENTS SCORELESS LAST HALF GIRLS SHOW IMFORVEMENT IN SECOND GAME OF YEAR Loosing two games for the sec- ond time this season, the Wolver- ines. both boys and glrla. showed much improvement over the games played last week with Hart. In a alow, one sided contest the Spring Lake glrla were badly outclassed by the more seasoned Muleshoe sextet by a score of 80 to � . Trailing 20 to 8 at the half time, the Wolverine quintet took com- plete control of the game and held the Muleshoe lads scoreless thruout the remainder of the game After the half time, the Wolver- ines allowed their opponents to at- tempt only a few field shots and these were long wild shots at- tempted when they wero complet- ely shut out of the close territory Coker. Harland. and Hite were outstanding for the Wolverines, while the entire team scored al- most at will for tre Muleshoe lads during the first two quarters. The Wolverines will see their next competition In the Spade Warm Up Tournament December i and 5. Following this tourna- ment both, hot teams will be en tered in the Dimmit Invitation Tournament on December 11 and 12. To close the tournament play before Chiistmo holidays, both Wolverine teams will bs entered in the Frlona Invitation Tourna ment December 18 and 19. Plana for the opening of the home schedule have not been com- pleted as yet, due to the fact that the complettlon date for the new auditorium-gymnasium has not been determined. Progress In the building haa advanced sufficient- ly. however, that practice has boon started In the new quarters. ROSE PETALS Another six-weeks started and where Is your aim? Take Hawes advice: Aim at the sun. and you may not reach it; but your ar- row will fly higher than if aimed at an object on a level with your- self.” One can't expect to be suc- cessful If he doesn't put out an effort. From the board decorations In room sixteen. Mrs. Lee plans for the Freshman Claas to do some work. They are to memorise the poem The Builders”. Although it seems rather long, I agree with Mrs. Lee that It will be worth while. We ran across this and think it's complete: Man's Life School tablets. Aspirin tablets. Stone tablets. Atrenia are you studying Eng- lish? The other day she asked which was right. I have shaken or I have shooken. DECEMBER 10. 1936 THE WOLVERINE PAGE 20 STAFF Editor........

SHS STUDES AND 42 GRADE SCHOOL PUPILS MAKE HONOR ROLL MARY LOU HENSON LEADS If. S. AGAIN ROSE PETALS There Is no fire when the four o'clock bell rings; therefore, why should we rush out and Jam the halts especially in front of the outside doors? As high school students, we should realize that there are smaller children who are easily hurt. We should do our duty by not crowding these child- ren and giving them time to march out. Everyone will have plenty of time to reach the buses If you don't waste time doing un- necessary things. Let us act more our age The basketball girls and boys have attended several games. Al- though they haven't won any. they have Improved Immensely, according to Mr. Edetmon. We must remember that these girls have never played before and the boys have never practiced In a gym These are great handicaps that many do not realise. “Work. Organisation, Research. Kick.

The Junior girls almost tore the house down try- '« to get to Mr. Edelmon, who had the pins. The Juniors plan to have senior rings to match their pins. They also plan to order their rings this spring and receive them at tha first of school next year. In this way they can wear their rings all during the senior year, otherwise they could only wear them about half of the time.

SPRING LAKE DEFEATED BY NEW DEAL IN FIRST GAME Spring Lake played New Deal In the first round of the Spade Tournament last Friday Decem- ber the fourth at 10 o'clock In this game the score was 23 to 11 In favor of New Deal. This game put Spring Lake In the Consolation with several other teams who en- tered the Spade Tournament In competition for the trophies offer- ed by the Spade School. The boys just could not seem to get going in this game although they play, od a very determined game. New Deal's game featured long shots and they did not miss very often; they did not get many short shots because of the good defenee used by the Wolverines The boys who started the game were; Banka at center. Hite and Harland as forwards, and Coker and Cox as guards. Brownfield Is Absent And Spring l. ke Play Cotton Center The Brownfield team which was to play Spring Lake Saturday morning was not at the tourna- ment at game time.

ROSE PETALS These students surely aro changeable. One minute they arc full of pep and the nextthey are drowsing around. We also notic- ed from the facial expressions that several of the students have been ill and are ctlll under that influence. Maybe that accounts for it all. Several of the students have been overheard saying their new year's resolutions. We think it is one of the best things a person can do. Many times wo make re- solutions and fail to keep them Even If we do not keep them, wo have accomplished something for trying. It is better to make them and break them than not to make them. Many of us need to make resolutions toward our school work. Be loyal, patient, obedient, respectful and one who works to the finish. The auditorium-gymnasium is nearing completion. These good ole Spring Lake ••kids” surely do deserve it too. Although they hove played out in bad weather during years past, they never lost that united rage for something to' do. Now the gym has given them new hope and something to look forward to. Some of the girls who are not playing basketball have been sell-1 ing candy to help the basketball teams. When the candy is sold, an official basket ball will be giv- en to the teams by the Arm- strong Company of Martel. Tenn.' For this reason, If no other, we should show appreciation to the coaches who made it possible! and to the girls who patiently sell each day at noon. Education “Every man must educate him-. self. His books and teachers are but helps: the work is his.”—Web ster. Honesty There is only one failure in life possible, and that la not to be true to the best one knows.”—Far- rar. The basket ball boys and girls and the coaches have received new sweat suits. These suits are made of heavy cotton Jersey They are gold trimmed In green. Twelve suits were received for the girls and ten for the boys.

RESOLUTIONS FOR STUDENTS At the beginning of a new naturally turn their thoughts to ••-ar the Spring Lake students the mistakes they have made the part year and they resolve to cot rest them. Resolutions that every student in high school should make and carry out la to study harder and get all work In the day It is due. This makes It much easier for the teachers to grade the papers and they will give you a better trade than they would If you handed the paper In a week or •wo after it was due. When a make-up slip is issued offer you have been absent get It 'n and save the teachers the trouble of hunting you up and reminding you. Be a good sport when playing basketball or any other game you •re taking part In. When you get beat laugh at your loss and you will be entitled to good sport- n-.nshlp on the part of the other team when you are victor- ious. Always obey your teachers and bus drivers and school will be moro pleasant for you the com- ing year. If you are determined to car- ry out these resolutions it will be much easier for you than It would be If you made a resolu- tion and were not determined to carry it out.

At any rate she fell off th bed the other night. Santa Claus surely was good to Lillian (or was It Santa Claus.) We notice that she Is wearing a new wrist watch. What ''Piice' Lillian? Mr. Nix seems to be getting forgetful in his old age (you know he Is “Grandpa now.) Saturday night he carried the keys '.o .he bus off with him and all the poor basketball kids nearly froze to death before Mr.Boeker could wire some wires together and get the engine started. W ll kids. Christmas is gone and th new year 1937 Ishere. Let's mak some resolutions and keep them. Let's strive to be better students In the futuie and try to make better grades. Say that new Gym floor is swell, to say nothing of the scen- ery and chairs. We should be proud of the structure. Hazel has never mentioned wanting to be a dancer, but she Is always trying to tap and we believe that her ambition is to become a fan dancer. Travis visited in Oklahoma dur- ing the holidays. She said she surely had a keen time because she went with her old sweetheart Sonny Boy (Carroll) Is surely smart sine Christmas W don't know what happened but even Sister Girl can't win an argu- ment ny more. But that Isn't any reason for Sonny Boy to think she won't ever win anoth- er because Sister Girl is pretty hard to out argue on certain sub- jects. Sonny Boy says he can milk. sew. cook. wash. Iron, and also eat. So he thinks he dosn’t need a wife, not even Pauline. certain one Who Is wise, witty and full of fun. He is not so large and not so old. He rolls his sleeves and never gcla cold.

'there Is no fun In running a tourist home when business la bau. but when business picks up end you find your quiet rest home filled with crooks—bankers run- away sweethearts—aspiring mov- ie actors and whatnot—the time for rest la at an end. Not only does this Interesting set of char- acters meet in a quiet tourist home, but suddenly they find themselves vitally concerned In each other’s lives How they be- come Involved In this bright, snap- py story will prove more than en- tertaining—and how they extricate themselves from the tangled skein which they are woven will furnish one of the most hilarious evenings you have ever spent In a theatre. Hold Everything Is more than the title suggests. It is full to the brim and running over with good, clean, wholesome fun—the kind that will linger In your mem ory for many a day. Watch for the date for tthe treat of the season. SENIOR’S WISH FDR MRS LEE V e. as the members of the Sen- Ion Class, wish to express to Mrs. Lee our appreciation to her as our sponsor.

STUDENTS EDUCATE 8. L. TEACHERS Well, we students aren’t the on- ly ones that are learning things up here at school. The teachers have learned also, especially dur- ng mid-term examlntlons. Mr. Hearn learned that If one dozen oranges cost 30c. two oran- ges would cost 60c. Mr. Nix learned a new way to pell Chicago—SAC AGO. Mlaa Stallings was greatly sur- prised when she learned that the earth was flat. Mias Wilson learned that a su- burb was a railroad. One of her pupils wrote: T had five scents In my pocket. Mrs. Axtell was shocksd when she found out that Taxaa was the capital of the U. S. and that the Hudson River was in Texa . One student gave the word fitting the definition of nothing inside as hungry’. She also learned that a .opposed character that gives gifts on Christmas ave ia the -oachor. Mrs. Lee was Indeed surprized when she learned that Dolly Win- -mop married Silas Marner. MUs Jinkins asked: 1. What Is a tariff? What ia IU relation to political parties? Answer: Pro- ..-ctlve tariff la factories. The political parties did not want .manufacturing. Protective tar- iff did not become a problem un- til after the war of 1812 because .hey had a bank and a few slav- 33 and did not need It. Other answers that she receiv- . ora. 1. One of the provisions of tho .. eaiy at the close of the Revo- .utionary War was that England «reed to leave the SL Lawrence ,-iver where It was. -. The difference In Houston's .nd Lamar’s Indian Policies was that Lamar thought all Indiana mould bo dead and drug off. Houston thought they should be -uve and working. Mrs. Dughtrey learned that when a rich dessert Is served, .he rest of the meal should be sour, that tender cuts oi meat arc -.ound In the legs of animals, that oxrometera are used to tell tem- perature. that vegetables rich In iron are yellow, and that the op- tj nerve la the nerve leading to the brain from the middle ear. .the also learned that mustard .-taster Is made from mustard seeds and water, and should be .ett on from four to six hours.

Slnton. texas. and Lewis Currey. Lone Wolf. Oklahoma. Sidney - Skinner has recently withdrawn from school. Jewel Alexander la back in school aftsr having missed some time working. FROM OLE NOSEY Dear Children, Here we are after so long a time and do we know the gossip! Babe surely likes to write let- ters. She seems to be correspond- ing with two or three boys be- Jdes Lowell. Lowell, you had bel- .sr see that It doeen't go any .’atther than corresponding. Lena Martha haa surely fallen .or Herbert. She was noticed talk .ng to him an unusual length of time the other day. The following couples were seen .ogether Friday night: Klvts He- stand and Oneta Lemons. Faye olgman and W. O. Jones. Waldo Drake and Mary Jane Smyth. Ed- na Packard and Foy Cook. Beat- rice Falknor and Leo Cook. Eloise .«oiland and Olen Cupp. Lucille Johneton and Paul Landers. Babe Kelly and Lowell Hite. Oneta seems to be rather popu- lar. She aald she had four or five chances to come to the ball gam- es Friday night, but sho turned them all down except Elvis. She and Elvis suroly had lots to talk about during the games. Mary Jane didn’t seem to enjoy Friday night until after the game was over and she was seated by Waldo. J. E. Harland and Bill Vlcaent were seen escorting two Amherst girls to the car Fiiday. We '«on- _er what this could mean. Travis la atill trying to hook Ke- cll but he la too Interested In Ol- eta. What doea Clota Belle do these days? Is she remaining true to Walter and to Everllt? It seems that Hollis Bills has up a real caso at lazt. He gels a jreat kick out of writing lettera to Loulae Wright and letting her wear hla closs pin. I saw Margaret holding Her- bert’s hand the other uay. Now. what does this mean? Don't dare tell Jimmie Sue. Jimmie Sue told Roberta that she didn't have tlmo to write him a letter. Who Is him, Jimmie Sue’ Letter writing seems to be all the go at Spring Lake. The oth- er day Hollis carried a letter In tils pocket from a seventh grade girl, and the same day. she read one from him. Louise seems to be the most beautiful name Hoi Ila ever heard. Junior said. Hol- lis is Jealous of me because I think Louise Is pretty.” Amie Lee Allen was wearing Oneta Lemons coat the other day. Is It possible Arnie is falling at ast? We heaid Junior tell Elsie the other day that close friends al- ways quarreled. We have been observing that Junior and Lena Martha quarrel a lot. We heard that Errnma Lee was going to get married! Wonder who the lucky one la? She counts the days. We’ll let you know more about this later. So long.

He was coming around the comer of the house pretty fast, when the bus drove up. Did he change his mind and decide to get out of sight? You should have seen him. Rosie, can't you see? Monday ahe started down the hall looking for Elsie, after falling to find her she came back to room 16 and she was sitting about two seats from where Rosie had been sit- ting. Joe says he ate twenty-seven biscuits one morning. What a man! We thought he didn't like anything better than peanuts. That Toby Shelby Just whispers all the time. Goodness She must know lota of secrets. Now we have been watching J. E. and Wanda Lou and how they act around each other. All we have been able to make out of It Is Just a “very sweet friendship.” However we are still watching to see just how U will turn out. There Isn't much room to wond- er why Arnold is so fond of Mo- dette. What boy wouldn't be when she can play basket ball so well (and has three more years to play).

Daughtrey really meant It as che had been threatening to bring her paddle board” to school, but w found out that Mrs. Daughtrey was only taking advantage of Be- atrice because of her size! Re- gardless. the girls will be a lit- tle better In claas because they know that Mrs. Daughtrey rea l can us a paddle board” or a ruler.

These questions n- tzred by mind when I walked In- to the press club room Monday. I noticed several article assign- ments still on the board. I very quickly noticed thot there was only on student working on an article. I’m as guilty c� anyone, but together let’s resolve to do our duty toward our paper. Each week took on the bulletin board to find your assignment ami then start working on It Immed- iately. Do not wait until the edi- tor remind; you of It naif a doz- en times. By so doing wc will help make our paper a success. Let's start a new semester with a new determination to work. Once Charles Dickens was arked the secret of hla success. he ic- pllcd that It was due to herd work and ?. motto which ho had faith- fully lived up to: Whatever is worth doing is worth do.net well. If we do not plant Unowicdg i when young. It will give us no rhade when wc are old’’—Lord Chesterfield. Some of the rooms rre not kept rs neat as thoy should be. If wc arc neat we'll keep our surround- ings neat Dr. Whitaker says that neatness and It; reserves or al- most c. certain test of moral char- rcter. For this reason and to help our Janitor, let’a use a little com- mon sens: and remembrance and keep our rooms more in order.

HEATING SYSTEM IS AT LAST COMPLETED The heating system has at last been installed In the gymnasium. There are six low pressure steam heating radiators and two hot air ones. In the steam heating radi- ators. the water Is heated and changes to steam; this Is carried through pipes to the radiators. This circulates through the radi- ators. cools off. condenses back to water, and is returned to the boiler by return flow pipes. This sys.cm of heating Is called radi- ation. The heat is blown downward from the hot air radiators, and the air currents are distributed about the room. This cystem is called convection. JOLLY JUNIORS Does this apply to High School students? “Never run after a wom- an or a street car; there will be another along any minute.

PAGE 33 THE WOLVERINE FEBRUARY 18. 1937 Wolverines Win Over Lockney, Fieldton S. L. DEFEATED BY SPADE IN SUDAN TOURNEY Thursday night. February 4th. the Spring L k« Wolverines played Spade In the annual County Tour nament. The Spade team won the bout by good margine, the scores v ere 37-23 In favor of the more reasoned basketors from Spade. The game was a fight from strat to finish because the Wolverines were in the game to win or play the best game that was in their power. Some of the best players from each side were fouled off before the half but the game went on in a style that would have held the attentions of any bas- ketball booster. At the end of the first half the scores were 17-15 In favor of the Spade team. The fouls were plentiful on each a'.de and most of the last half was played by each team with 3 or 4 of the first string players fouled off. The players to start the game for Spring Lake were Hite. Banks. Harland. Trull and Cox. The play- era substituting were Baggett. Har din. Price ana Drake. CP KINO LAKE DROPS GAME TO OKLAHOMA LANE The Wolverines lost a game to the fighting Oklahoma Lane team X-'rlday night. Feb. 5. In the local gymnasium. The core= were 29 2u for the fuat breaking visiting team. Tho fouls were very plenti- ful on both sides and each team had a fighting chance at the ball geme till the last whlotlc blew. The boys starting the game were Harland. Hite. Cox. Banks and Trull. NUQQETS To be useless la a curse. Good common sense Is a rich glft. It la a great honor to be needed. Conceit indicates a small char- acter. You are fortunate If you can re- spect youraelf. Do not expect others to respect you If you are unworthy. There are some kinds of skill that one had better not have. You can Judge a man's nature by the amount It takes to make him angry. The secret of happiness la not In doing whr.t one likes, but in loving what one has to do. Greatness comes only to those who ssek how to overcome obsta- cles. not how to avoid them. The secret of success Is con- stancy of purpose. ROSE PETALS To be polite Is to do and say The kindest things In the kindest way.” I wonder If wc are polite. Ac- cording to the above quotation. I’m a I rah) we ar enot many times. It la probably hard to say kind things If we are In the habit of doing otherwise. Let us be more thoughtful and be polite.

EDITORIAL CARE OF OUR “ACTIVITY HOME When we hear the expression “Cym“, we usually think of a place for recreation and games, but that Is not all we should think about. Wc should think of the ways we should help preserve our “Activity home . Our new gym Is completed with waxed and polished flooring, pain- ted bleachers, new chairs, beau tlful velvet curtains, lockers, show- ers ond heaters. A combination for a typical activity home. But it In true that these will not al- ways stay new, but we can help to prolong their use by: thinking twice before walking or running across the floor In street shoes, before clamming the doorc to tho lockers, smoking In the building, bsfore throwing pieces of fruit or candy papers on the floor, or gum on the bleachers. There are many wnyn we can help In keeping our new home clean and more fit for use. So come on, come on let’s try! B. L. VOC. AO. DEPT.

Because this Is the last semester of school, do not neg- lect your work but strive to mako better grades than you did the first. Often times we hear stu- dents say. “I wish my grades were us good as So-and-So's. Many times they continue to wish but lo not put forth the effort to ob- toin the object of their desires. If your grades were not as good the first semester as you think they should have been, then you may take advantage of the oppor- tunities you now have to Improve them. All students who fully realise the luccaslty and benefit of an edu- cation will agree that the words of the poet were true when ne said: It Is not the gale.

Under ilctlcious names they fall violent- ly In love with each other and. of course, tho theme grows excit- ing.

Then the girl's fathor comes on the scene not knowing It is his bank which has been robbed.

I do not like to think of Good Friday by Itself. If It were not for the hap- py Easter that follows so soon afterwards. It would be a day too dreadful for us to contemplate, for It mi on this day that Jesus Christ was so cruelly put to death. The term “Good Friday' Is a corruption of what was orig- inally -God's Friday. The Sunday following Good Fri- day is Easter, the festival of Christs resurrection from death, and the most joyous day ob- served by the Christian Church. On Easter Sunday we celebrate Christ's triumph over death. Ho Easter custom Is more wide- spread than the use of Easter egjs. The early Christiana consid- ered the egg an embtem of res- urrection. for at the chicken brerke open l� a enclosing shell so did Christ break open the doors to his tomb. As for wearing new clothes on Eaxter. we have have the justifi- cation of hundreds of years when pooplo believed that it wa sun- lucy not to wear something new on Easter Sunday. FROM THE HITES During Senior play practice Lowell and Babe were seen to- gether when they were not on the etage. So It ceems like they je r till very good sweethearts. We hear that Wanda Lou and Douglas have had a burst up. Ix It true? Florence, do you etlll love Son- cy? Soney la going to college at Stillwater, Okla. Florence gets a letter from him about every week, tay In there kid. Waldo, have you and Mary Jane made up yet? Wo didn't know Leo was such a rough boy but we saw him hit J. E. In the cyewlth his elbow Sunday afternoon. Poor J. E. has been wearing a cut place ever ainco then. TIIK SUPERINTENDENTS CORNER Perhaps In parsing the schooi buildings you have noticed some [changes In the appearance of the playgrounds south of them. By moving the old tennis courts and tho outside basketball court to the west side of the grounds It Is our aim to provide better play- 3round space for the grade school and at the same time Improve the tennis courts. It may also be noticed that pro- visions are being made for an cxleca.vc tree planting program. Through the efforts of the Voca- tion; I Ag boys an extensive cam- pus beautification program will be carried on. If present plans are completed approximately 200 trees will be set out during the next few weeks. In addition to the tree planting piogram. the work on the lawn in front of the building Is going foivsard. Tho ground has been '.eviled and prepared : or planting. .h grass set out last fall is be- tinning to rprout and will be getting green in a short while. It is our plan to make the grounds and school plant attrac- tive as well as to provide the typa of program that best suits the needs of the community. W. L Kdelmon.

EDITORIAL Quarrels In a school between the Junior and Senior classes us- ually cause the school to have a bad reputation. Students, why quarrel over small iloina of little Importance.

Ask Lillian If she ever kissed a “sleeping beauty.’ Here is something we would like for everyone to do Just for a little while, and see how It works. We feel sure It will work out for the best—If it does, keep the good work up. It Is to look for other good qualities Instead of their bad . ones. —No man should be Judged by what he doesn't know; he should be Judged only by how quickly and sensibly he assumes new duties. P. T.

EDITORIAL Courtesy The outward expression of an Inward feeling of well wishing or our friend� , neighbors, or chance acquaintances is our Idea of cour- tesy. The outward expression of prop- er conduct In -a given situation Is always desirable but to want oth- ers to succeed is to express trUe courtesy. Coming from the French word Courtlsle meaning courtly politeness or politeness suited to the courts of king or queen It has a great deal of meaning. It should atwayc be our purpose to conduct ourselves as ladies or gentlemen worthy of any court icgardless of the conduct of oth- ers. Our actions and not our knowl- edge determine our rank. We may k-’ow all the fine points of social behavior but If we fall to embody them In our lives It Is doubtful that the people about us will stop to anallze any test we might pass In order to rank us with refer- ence to courteous conduct It la not how much we can get. but how much we can do for oth- ers that Ic most important In our days of training In school here. Harsh words and unkind deeds as well os harmful habits had best be overcome now so as to let our personalities grow. JOLLY JUNIORS There is always a number of students In every school with that great ambition to Just Oet By. They make 70 on their exami- nations and get by. They sleep through classes and If the teach- er c:ll3 on them, they ask their neighbor to answer and “gel by again. When the end of the semester comes, and they find their grades are hardly passing, they politic their teacher and get by again. The rash promises to do better next semester. The rash promis- es to do better next semester are usually forgotten the minute they receive their credits. By cramming for two or three days and nights before exams, they manage to “get by again; but not without much copying from their neighbor's paper. Another group of students are those who do their best In. every- thing they undertake. They rtudy a little more at night and make good grades the next clay at school. They don't have to cram the night before exams because they already know their lessons. But then out of school both classes of students are applying for the tame position. When they apply, they have the same tests to pass to prove their ability to do this work. This time the student who al- ways Just gets by doesn’t get by. He falls, for his neighbor wasn't there for him to depend on. The other student passes be- cause he has learned the knowl- Plans are being made to select a delegate'to enter the contest at the Panhandle Plains Dairy Show at Plalnview which OP � ' April 21.

The one receiving the most vote? will represent Spring Lake at the Dairy Show. edge he should while he had the opportunity. It Is the person who tried to learn while he was In school that knows more than enough to merely get by In Ilfs. •OLE NOSEY Wanda Lou Is really going In for a little change these days. You should have seen her with O. W. Slinmons the other night. Doug- las you have lost your rabbit's foot? J. E. Is In debt to the govern- ment because we saw him read- ing a letter from Frances the other day that didn't have any stamp on It. I wonder how he doos it. Jimmie Sue seems to be crazy about ft boy in grade school. Wc think his nams Is Jack. Bettet watch out Jimmie we are watch- ing you all the time. Borden seems to be gaining his rabbit foot back again. We saw him setting by Athenla the other day In assembly. Leo Baggett seems to be step- ping out lately. Stay right ir. there. Lao. you will get a wife yet. You should have seen Wa’do’j face the other day In typing class. He was asked a question which we do not want to tell Just yet and was so emotionally overdone until he couldn't keep from blus- hing. Edna told Mrs. Hearn that she surely liked all the grade school teachers. Mrs. Hearn said she was going to watch her husband and Edna said for her not to because she was an old married lady. Lucllls Johnston and Leo are surely seen together a lot. We can’t decide whether she has thrown Paul over all together or not. You can’t guess who Elsie went to the show with Saturday night. Ask her and maybe she will tell you. Florence is getting rather pop- ular. Four boys went after her Sunday. Ask her which one she went with. It seems as If Mr. Boedeker has his head set on buying that box that the little Canyon girl brought. Oh. la she Just a friend. Mr. Bo- edeker? Well, we have often won- dered. Beatrice told us Friday night at the box supper that she has on her wedding dress. That does- n’t make sense. You know. Be- atrice. that there is a five dollar fine for only one person to get married. Ole Nosey. PAGE 41 THE WOLVERINE APRIL 8. 1937 Outcome Of The Track Meet April 3rd EDITORIAL •They are disloyal to their class!'’ That has been said about several members of the Junior class. Why not give the members of your class who are not In the play a little “say so in what the class does? Do you think it fair for the cast to practice in the gym tho-thlrds of our activity periods and then say we were having a class meeting? Do you have any right to criti- cize “those who are not In the play for not coming to the meet- ing when your leading character a not In the class meeting? Of course you will think we have no light to say this, but who wants to be “ran over”—and be bossed by the members of his ownclass? Members of the cast, should thoss who are not in the play be treated in such a way as they have been treated? Think It over before you criticise too sharply. BEATRICE FAULKNER AND l.EO COOK SECRETLY WED Miss Beatrice Faulkner, a for- mer student of Spring Lake High School, was secretly married to Mr. Leo Cook, of Earth. March 12. 1037. Their marriage was not publicly announced until April 12, 1037. They plan to make their home In Lubbock.

They made the trip to defend an equalization bill. If this bill is passed it will mean an increase In the school fund of about $3000. Mr. Edelmon la ex- pected to return by Wednesday. OLE NOSEY Hello! Well. kids. I shore have got some swell news for you this week. You remember last week I told you about Beatrice's wadding dress? It surely must have been, 'cause she and ole Leo were up here Monday morning, and If I’m not mistaken she was turning in her books. Yes. I guess it's so what they say about Beatrice and Leo. Anyway, best of luck! I sure did learn lots on my way to Amherst to the track meet Fri- day. Seems as If J. E. White must have had a pretty good time. He must have been trying to put a nail In the tire. Maybe I wasn't supposed to tell that. Did you kids know that there was two girls In Spring Lake that lettered In Football? Well. It seems as there was two girls that really did. Mary Jane and Lu- cille were wearing some of those new Football sweaters. I’ll tell you this much, though: Leo and Waldo didn't have their new swea- ters on. Those Home Economic gals sure are planning on a swell trip when they go to Fort Worth. Think I’ll dress up like one of them and go. I have been trying to get Lillian to tell me something she knows on Edna, but It seems that every time Lillian starts to tell. Edna says she will tell on her; and Just because of that I can't find out anything. You know that old say- ing still holds true: “If you kill my cat. I'll kill your dog. Leo said he had to stay at heme the other night. Saturday night to be exact. I don't see how he did it. do you? We found out the other day that Babe Is afraid of water. She wouldn't let anyone get near her with any snow, and you know snow Is water. So that proves the fact. Old J. E. told us the first thing this morning that he had seen Francis at the track meet. I guess he Just can't forget her. I don't guess you can blame the boy though. So long! Ole Nosey. INTEKMURAL TOURNAMENT TO BE HELD Due to the fact that the school term is practically over and as there will be no more events car- ried on with other schools, the Spring Lake student body has ar- ranged to hold an Intermural tournament In volley ball, play- ground ball and tennis. Each class may enter as many teams as Its class enrollment will permit. In both boys and girls division. En- tries have been made and regular play off in volley ball will begin Wednesday or Thursday. Tennis and playground ball will be held later. This type activity will provide some outside activity for all stu- dents interested, and will keep the last days of the school term from being so dull for those who arc a ecu '.anted to participating In In- torscholastic events.” said Supl.

They'll probably be married next. J. W. and Runt” were together. Joe took Wanda Lou home and of course Lowell was with Babe. Just gucNj who asked Travis for a date?

Let's put everything we have Into our school work. Won't we have fun” seems to be the general attitude of the stu- dent body concerning the inter- mural volley ball tourney to be held either Wednesday or Thurs- day of this week. We only hope the tourney is as pleasant as the practice games which have been played. Our true sportsmanship will be chown through the way we conduct ourselves during our In- tercinas tourney,, so let us show our beat sportsmanship and make our tourney a worthwhile and pleacant event. The outcome of the track meet April 3 turned out more favora- ble for Spring Lake than the day before. The grade school boys and the High School Juniors won first In the relays.

There must be unity of spirit, Rood teamwork, and cooperation among classes. The welfare of the entire student body Is of the greatest concern, not the welfare of any particular class.

A cln-a L- as weak as its weak- est member. So let us all strive to hold our clas: at its highest and not be one to tear It down. VOC.

If you have you should read the Crisis by Win- ston Churchill. It can be reported on In both History and English and Is also a very Interesting sto- ry when read for pleasure. A per- son who likes the study of Lin- coln should read this very good explanation of Lincoln’s love for our nation and of hla great wish to hold the nation together. If you like a love story you may also have It In this story. Read It to understand the hardship the people went through during the Civil War. For a real story read Winston Churchill's “Crisis.” GRADE SCHOOL NEWS Circus Unit Completed The second grade completed their circus unit Thursday. April 8. Many of the students were In to see the circus tent, merry-go- round and animals that were made by the second grade children The second grade worked up a program which was presented to Mlrs Kelley's first grade, four A and B and some of the mothers of the children.

Mozelle Jones and Mauvarlne Estes are from Oklahoma and Fay Plumlee from Arkansas. FROM THE HITES The Junior play was a success. The play was good and the char- acters did well on their parts. Here's a word or two about the relationship of the classes in high school. There have been same words between different Individ- uals In the Junior and Senior cla-ses. Fellow students. let's strive to keep up a cooperative spirit between the classes. After all. in school we gain most of our lifelong friends. Let’s be able to call them real friends and not enemies. Some have been making joking remarks, but some have had def- inite meaning. All of us have been guilty to a certain extent. Let's forget all of that nonsense of the past and make the last few weeks of school bright with com- panionship, loyalty and friendli- ness toward each other as Indi- viduals and other groups. We Seniors can be looking for- ward to a good banquet I know, because some of us have seen the menu the Juniors have planned, and does It sound good? We are anxious to see how it tastes. We notice Wanda Lou and Joe going places together; well they make a nice looking couple, but who does Doug court now? IN DIPLOMA ROW Don't miss the amateur contest on April 30. There will be $10.00 IN PRIZES given for the best performances. See the bulletins which have been posted for fur- ther Information or see Mr. Edci- mon.

Carroll went to visit some of his relatives. We noticed that Lucille was re- ally happy Monday morning. We wonder why. Well, it’s because she got a letter from Marvin. We wonder who J. E. will settle on. Travis or Clota Belle. He took Travis home Friday night from the play and he seemed very fond of Clota Belle Monday. They sit together during the ball games. He also saved her a seat in the study hall. James Alalr has found him a girl after all. Guess who. It Is none other than Oneeta Lemons. They seemed to have a lot to talk about in the study hall. We saw a letter from Sayre. Oklahoma, lying on Athenia's desk the other day. We believe It was from Eugene Green. It was a real sweet letter. CHORAL SINGERS BROADCAST Miss Warren, music teacher, took the choral singers to Clovis Fri- day to broadcast over KICA. The choral singers won first at the Interscholastic meet the first of the month held at Amherst THE VOLLEY BALL FLASH! The volleyballers are still going strong at the Spring Lake school. The Seniors and Juniors are still leading the attack on the other teams us they have not been de- feated up to this time but they will play each tther tonight and one will win and be set up as champions and the other will be a great team that lost In one of the best games of the tourney. The Senior B team Is next in line for the winner of the tour- ney; having lost one game of set of games to the Juniors. The Sophomores, fourth In line, are still playing good volley ball but are slowly but surely coming to a team that they can beat. The Freshmen arc still playing ball but are far in the rear of the stronger teams. The Seventh Grade has entered the running with a good start against the Sen- iors but losing a good margin af- ter putting up a good fight for the games. The Faculty has a good team although they have not played so far In the games. We will ace ac- tion Tuesday night In the Spring Lake Gym against the Juniors and Seniors. The Faculty has some tall men whom they expect to use In the forthcoming game to their best advantage on the front line. JOKES Joe Banks: Mother, did you say Dwight has your ayes and dad’s nose?

BOOK REVIEW “The Burnt of Wimple Street” Rudolf Healer Elizabeth lay on her sofa almos: all the time because she was a crippled Invalid. She had been hedi act for practically a year. Gradually sho grew stronger. It happened that she met Robert Browning, the great English poet. He often came to see her and read to her.

TEN TEACHERS GIVEN CONTRACTS At a regular meeting of the Spring Lake School Board held Thursday April 22. ten of the fourteen teachers were re-elected for the coming school year. Action on the four remaining places was delayed pending plans for a completed program for the next year. Willie Boedeker. High School principal and Q. L. Hearn. Grade school principal were re-elected togther with the following teach- ers: Berlins Howell. High School English: Fred Nix. Vocational Ag- riculture; Reba Jink Ins. Reading: W. H. Hopkins. Grade school Eng- lish; Luclle Staggtngs. Art; Mar- jorie Warren. Public School Music; Mrs. John Brown. 2nd grade: and Johnnie Kelley. Primary. With an Increase of 34 scholas- tics over that of 1B34-37 It appear- ed evident that an additional teacher would be needed but as yet no place has been created. It Is planned to finish election at an early date. GUESS WHO Last Week—Lucille Price He Is long, and he's talL Just six feet four—that's all. His shoes are numbered way up In the teens. And If you have big feet you know what that means. In case you're wondering a- oout the personality. He's Just a school teacher. In reality. FROM THE HITES Boy-O-Boy! Was that a swell banquet? I say It was. Lowell was satisfied I guess, he was sit- ting by Babe. Clola Belle was dated with J. E. She surely wat- ched him closely during the ban- quet. They were walking down the hall Monday, and seemed to have much of Importance to dis- cuss. Good luck, children. When anyone tella Lillian to dance sho dances. Lillian surely minds Price too. Well Price Isn't the only person who tells people what to do. In Bookkeeping. J. L is continually telling Florence what to do. That's right J. E. get her trained now while sho hi young. Call Babe Uttlo Old Woman. that Is a name sho likes Did Toby blush at the banquet? She didn't get to sit by her Hol- lU. We noticed her eyes wero of- ten cast down toward him. though. Reel!, did the chair turn over on purposo or was It an accident? Well, anyway It was funny. And anotner thing, did you ask Foy If you might sit by Edna? If you didn't you had better bo very care- •UL Ask Trnv:e who carried her to the banquet Monday night. It was. none other than Joe. We be- llevc Borden and Athentr. wore with .hem. OLE NOSEY Travis really did blush at the Junior-Senior banquet when Reel! told the public that she had a one track knowledge and that was of boys. If you don't believe she has a knowledge of boys (or a boy) ask I la what she saw. We say Clots Belle with J. E. Harland the other night. We just wondered If her Interest In Sudan had come to a close. Elolse Holland went to Clovis Saturday. As a result sho wore a diamond Sunday, but It was gono Monday. Where Is It. Elo- ise? Douglas just can't give up his hope of winning Athenta. He has spent several evenings with her recently. Joe surely was disappointed at the banquet because he didn't get to sit by his better half Hollis also wanted to sit by Toby. Arnle Lee Allen surely has been Interested In Jimmie Sue lately. We hear that he has been taking her places. Eva Nola seems fairly happy- most of tho time, but If that let- little late, you can surely tell It on ter from Mexico happens to be a her face. Lucille Johnston wan really on hot toe Monday night when she thought Paul had stood her up. him. Lucille Price said she got to where she didn't have lime to go However, e'.«e got to go home wltl. any where except to Platnview. Did you know that Joe Banin could drive with one hand? If you don't believe It Just ask Trav- Hestand. He seemed to be do- .ng pretty good going home from tho banquet. Borden Price and Athenla were In the back seat, but they weren't paying any at- tention to the driving. It seemed (hat 'i ravis' ring was missing too. bu; It was found on Joe's finger itavL.'. havo you forgotten Mal- .clm ..nd • Less?” What'c the matter with Lucille and Leo?

Junior Class and Mr. Nix. sponsor, we congratulate you on your success ful banquet. Don’t forget the Amateur con- test on Friday night, April 30. Be present for the fun. The Junior-Senior banquet was held Monday evening. April 24 In the Spring Lake gym. The banquet carried out the Idea of a ship. The program was as follows: Toastmaster—Joe Banks Invocation—Mr. W. L. Edelmon Welcome to Seniors—Roele Hen- derson. Response to Welcome—Lowell Hite Group song— Don't give up the Ship. Reading Hollis Bills Address- Rev. L. L. Hill Quartet—Clots Belle Sanders.

Mr. Nix (In making his talk) made Ethel and Carrol stand up. Then when Ethel made her talk the aaked Mr. Nix. and Johnnie to stand up. Mr. Nix aays he had to turn red In the face to keep 4rom blushing. Isn't that Just like a man? Recll got up to aay something, and we gueas his chair must have slipped out from under him. Any- way. he got up klnda' red in tha face too. Wo wonder what Hollis would think If he should hug hln sister on the stairs and think It was aomeone else? We imagino he would be rather disappointed. Beatrice was up here Mondsy night after the banquet was over, and Edna asked her where Foy was Can't you keep up with him. Edna? Elsie had to reat her feet on a chair while she ate. She aald her lumbago had started hurting her. Can you feature that? STAFr JMUor--------------- Lillian Nelaor.

She said she wrote one every day but she didn't get one that often. Isn't that Just like these boys? Believe it or not she mailed him threo letters Wednesday, the day she left for Fort Worth. James was sitting very close to Juanita In the gym the other day, nnd the conversation seemed to be very private. Glen Nelson seems to be Interest cd In a seventh grade girl— Hath- oryn. I don't think It is serious. Fay seems to be interested in certain Sophomores. Weldon par- ticularly. My. that Fort Worst trip was swell. I wish everyone had a chance to see such large buildings, and so many pretty girls. There were only about 1.362 girls at the banquet. Boys, let me give you a tip—everyone of those girls knew how to sew and cook.. I don’t think It would be a bad idea for the boys to go along next time. We saw Nlneeta sending a letter to Delbert Barlow. We didn't know this affair had started. We raise this question with Son- ny Boy Klngflsh: What Is your idea of a substitute anyway. The Right Reverend E. Cedi Seaman, Bishop of North Texas District of the protestant Episco- pal Church, stationed at Amarillo, Texas, will deliver the commence- ment address at Spring Lake School Monday. May 21 at 8:00. Bishop Seaman Is editor of the North Texas Adventurer, a month- ly church periodical. He has been in active service with the Boy Scouts of America for 18 years and has the rank Silver Beaver Scout In that organization. Bishop Seaman's love for “Dry Pasture as told by him in the March 1935 Issue of West Texas | Today finds another opportunity 'for adventure In serving Spring Lake School. Carved from the old XIT Ran- ch. The Spring Lake School ties closely with the History of West Texas. One of the largest Rural Schools In the World and perhaps the only one known to educate the students of two towns In a modern plant situated five ml'es from the nearest town or village, the Spring Lake School welcorms the opportunity to hear a pioneer of Bishop Seaman's type stated W. L. Edelmon. Supt. of the school. MEMORIES We will remember the girls who went to Fort Worth by the fol- lowing things: Mrs. Daughtrey for having friends In every city between here and Fort Worth and for getting lost while there. Athenia for not having what tinfoil cheese Is and for writing a letter each night between twelve and two.

Margaret Lee for paying 25 for a theater seal to sleep In. Ila for cooking so well that sh wouldn't eat anyone else's cook ing. Rosie as tho champion sou pickle eater—morning, noon, nigh We can’t make up our mind as to who Borden's girl is. He was with Babe Monday night. At rchool he Is with Athenia often. He asked to be seated by Elolse at the banquet. He surely has mo fooled; I thought Rosie had his attention. Maybe he “loves them alL STUDENTS ENTERTAINED BY FAULKNER TUESDAY J. J. Faulkner, a graduate of the State school for the blind at Austin, gave a short program In the auditorium Tuesday morning. He showed how the blind were taught to read .write, and work mathematica. He played the piano and the accordian.

There Is no need for so much noise; of course one must make some noise, but not a great deal. I have noticed the small child- ren in the primary grades as they come Into the house or building. They tiptoe and never make a noise as high school students do. It seems to me If tiny tots can be quiet, older people can be. In classes there usually Isn't a great deal of noise; so why should there be between classes? Noise Is very disturbing to the students In grade who might be studying. Fellow students, noise between periods Is unnecessary. Let's strive to be quieter and more orderly while changing classes. H. E.

There she turned some clothes In for Mrs. Nix . We're not saying how much of It Is true, but some- how we feel that the truth Is bub- bling out. Isn't It funny how things get back to Earth 7 I guess those kids that went to Fort Worth sure had a good time, by the looks of some of the pic- tures they took, that they sure had a good time. Wanda had some of the pictures and one of them was of Travis and a bell boy. Sure looks mighty funny. Travis. If you want to get a good laugh. Just ask Wanda for those pictures, and be sure and ask what those are of that you can't see. Those kids on the Junior B Team really won a set of games We knew that they would really get down to playing, and not try to fall around so much. Jimmie Sue has a date for to- night and won't tell us who It Is with. We'll find out tonight. Just wait and see. It must be some one she likes pretty well, be- cause she went out and let Mr. Hearn fix her hair up real nice I'll find out and let you know 1! about It Seems like Recil likes to work out at the store at noon Well, who wouldn't? Guess It Is worth 11« Wanda Lou. who is Elrod? We sure heard lot about him at the slumber party Friday night Maybe you can find out from her. She won't tell me.

With the faculty only partially completed, the Spring Lake School Board is making plans to provide a teacher for a school Orchestra for next year. It Is planned that the teacher of private music lesson be made a member of the regular faculty for that part of the time given to the Instruction of the orchestra Both, high school and grade students will be permitted to take work in this organisation. It will be necessary for the Individual to secure his own Instruments. Those interested In thl work, however, should see Miss Warren about the possibility of getting Instruments through the school at reduced prl- Revercnd Pipes.

SOPHOMORES HAVE DANCE MAY 7 FINAL EXAMINATIONS BE- GIN TUESDAY. MAY 18 Examinations begin Tuesdsy May 18. and last until Friday morning. Half a day has been set aside for each examination. The sophomores had a class meeting the other day and ar- ranged for a picnic, which was 1 held at the sand hills May 7. 1937. j As I understand the sophomores are not getting along so well In their class meeting as far as keep- ing order Is concerned. Well sopho- mores If we expect to be Juniors next year and seniors the next we’ve really got to change If we want an agreeable, and likable class. There are some few of us who are not getting along so well In our class for It to be so near th end of school. Are we going to reach our goal? Iwe do we are really going to have to make these next few weeks of school count on some teachers grade book. Are we. or are we not? That Is for leach Individual to decide. REVIEW OF VOLLEY BALL GAMES The teams are still playing vol- ley ball to decide the places of the classes. There are still some throe or four teams that are tied for honors In the tourney.

Eva Nola Welch has gone te using makeup. Athenla Ebellng liked to go tc the drug store. It won't be neat so pleasant now will It Athenla? J. C. Wright always saves a seal on the bus until tho seventh grad gets out. Erma Lee Hooten wears a “D badge. Thomas Truell Is always pester- ing someone. Glen Nelson thinks these girls get you into trouble. Douglas Coker wouldn't walk home with Wanda Lou the other night. Margaret Lee Cranflll couldn't miss any of the ball games at the F. F. A. tournament. Wo heard a. bout your fellow Margaret. Billy Howard stopped going with Beatrice Falkner. Wanda White eats lunch In the O. K. Drug Store when she goes to Plainvlew. Egune Cupp gets the blame for all meanness done In Math II class. FROM OLE NOSEY Lucille Johnston was with Pau Sunday. I guess they made up. heard her say that they had drop ped the ax between them. That Louise Wright Is still th big shot of some of the hlgl school boys. She Is wearing a Jun lor Pin and a Senior ring, am gave a valentine to a Sophomore SLUMBER PARTY GIVEN TO BASKETBALL BOYS AND GIRLS BY MRS. DRAKE Last Friday night Mrs. Drake presented the basket ball boys and girl� with a party. The boys camo and stayed until twelve o'clock and the girls stayed all night. Sandwiches, cake. Ice cream, and punch were served at eleven o’- clock. The games played were: Goat. Dad's Old Green Pants. All Hump- ed up In a Barrel. Poor Kitty, and If You Love Me You'll Smile. The ones present were: ' Mr. and Mrs. Edelmon. and Von. Nor- man Cox. Leo Baggett. J. W. and Wanda Lou Bartee. J. E. Harland. Lowell Hite. Hazel Hite. Clota Belle Saunders. Ethel Hite. Edna Packard. Lucille Johnston. Babe Kelley, Mary Jane Smith, Joe Banka. Eloise and. Waldo Drake. There were seven girls that speut the night. After the boys had gone the gtila put on their sleepers ana took exercise. At five o'clock Saturday morning the girls walked a half mile In the cool breeze then at five thirty they all lay down nad slept un- til Mrs. Drake called breakfast. Everyone reported a real nice time. JOLLY JUNIORS The Juniors certainly can play volley ball. The boys have won the tournament, and we hope tho girls will do as well. 1. Travis says that It Isn't nat- ural unless she falls down at least twice while she Is playnig volley ball. 2. Edna can still blush. Ask her who she saw at Plainvlew last week-end. 3. We wonder what Is wrong with Lucille Johnson: she doesn't sacm quite so happy here lately. 4. Elsie still complains of her lumbago. We guess that It Is some- thing else though, and she Is us- ing that for an excuse. 5. Hollis'—greatest ambition Is to become a radio singer. 6. We saw a letter that one of the Juniors wrote the other day. It said: Chamber of Commerce Amarillo. Texas. Dear Sir: We would like Information con- cerning the courses that are taught In Amarillo. We would also like Information about alittle Gulf filling station at the edge of Am- ai lllo. Signed ?????? The names were signed to this letter, but we are leaving It up to you to find out who wrote It. Will see you next week with more news about the Juniors. Ask her for further details. We noticed Lucille writing to Eugent Green. We wonder what Athenla and Marvin are going to do about this. Every time the month of June Is mentioned. Lillian Is really ov- erjoyed. She will always say, and where will I bo the 6th ot June? We think she will be on her hon- eymoon. but don't tell her wo know. In fact we don't know— Jim.

Yes, school is closing, but on'y for throo months. Three months o: empty rooms; throe month-, of deserted halls; three months of empty play grounds; and three months of rest and vacation.
