NOHMA L TRAINING DEPARTMENT One of the greatest forward steps that has been taken in the local school in recent years has been the introduction of the Nor mal Training work. lleretofore a very large per cent of the graduates have become teach- ers, but have been handicapped by reason of the fact that a low eertiiicate was the best that could he obtained without teaching exa- perience. The popularity of this department is evidenced by the fact that thirteen seniors elected this course at the beginning of the year. Twelve of this number will finish the work, one having dropped out of school at midyear. The class has reiiected a highmoral tone through the sc-hool, and the student body is ,justly proud of the class. Much credit is due .Principal J. W. MeCullo1n, who has di- rected the work, for the hard work which he has done in making the department a suc- cess. Nearly all the members of tl1e Normal Training Class ot' '23 already have schools for the year 1923-1924.

THE STAR u1lg-...ln-...ill-I. SUMMARY OF GJRLS' FIRST BASKET BALL TEAM The girls' first team in losing two of the members of their 1922 team met defeat in a number of games this season. The place as jumping center, played by Edna Mills last year, was filled by Eupha Headlee and Irene Armstrong took the place of Lois Brown as guard. The two new members have worked out wonderfully, this being their first year of basket ball, With this season closes the basket ball career of two members of the team, Hallie Newman and Alma Goodbar who go out with the graduating class of '23, Hopes are high for an all-star team during next -lg.-'11.1-.ng-..l1ql.-l.1..1g 11Il.Qlq.-ll.-u-n-.g-qn-qs--gl1n-gg-lg1 ed apt, for the team won 16 of the 19 games they played-this season. At the end of thc season, the 1923 basket ball squad was recog- nized as one of the fastest and smoothest working outfits of N. E. Playing the strong- est sehedule and taking on the best teams, the quintet made a wonderful record. Three ganns won out of four played at the N. E. tournanient guv- the boys third place. Welch lligli also landed one all-star guard at this tournament in the person of John Swango. Losing only Pace. Follin and Rohmiller who made up the sub list this year, we can reason- ably expect a champion team this coming sea- son. BUYS' GAMES AND SCORES FUR '22-'23 SGBSOII.

The loss of two fast mem bers of the '21-'22 team, Joe Pace who re- ceived injury in the Vinita game and William McCann, who fell a victim to Dan Cupid, hurt the team and filling their places was the problem that confronted Coach Brimer when he took charge of the squad. John Foust from the second team took Paee's place and his playing may be attested by him receiving honorable mention as all-star for- ward at Northeastern. Bill Cass, who took McCann's place, is only 15, but plays like a veteran. Andrew Rohmiller and John Swan- go at guards, Eugene Swango and John Foust at forwards, Bill Cass in center were the final selection.
