Our first game was against the Cashton quintet. In this game our boys had a lot of pep and played good basket ball. The Salem five led the first quarter but Cashton soon settled down and got the lead and kept it. At the half Salem had eleven points to Cashton’s nineteen. Despite the efforts of our team, the Cashton players ended the game with 38 points to our 26. Since we lost the first game we dropped into the consolation bracket and had to play Wonewoc who had been defeated by Black River Falls. During the first three quarters of the game our men missed a lot of their shots, but they did manage to keep the score close. At the last quarter our two forwards found their range and started going. This last rally proved to be too much for Wonewoc for when the end came they trailed us by four points. The final score was West Salem 36; Wonewoc 32. By winning this game we got into the consolation finals and as a result we had to play with Galesville, one of our own conference teams. This game was very exciting as well as interesting. Salem held the lead all the time but Galesville’s rally during the last quarter gave us quite a scare. The final score was Salem 25, Galesville 21. By winning the Galesville-Salem game we received consolation honors which included a silver trophy and individual medals for the players. BASKET BALL Under the splendid coaching of our new teacher, Mr. Nelson, the basket ball career of this year’s team was very successful. The team won the Coulee Conference Championship by beating Galesville in a tie-off game at the Teachers College. The team traveled to Reedsburg to participate in the tournament sponsored there and won the consolation series.

S. 392 Opponents 401 BASEBALL The baseball career of our High School team was short but effective. Practice started on September 11th id a large group turned out. Our first game was with Cashton the following Friday. This game was fast and furious, and by a fatal error on Salem’s part during the last inning we lost the game. The score was 3-2 in Cashton’s favor. The following Friday we played them again and showed them some baseball playing. As a result we beat them by a score of 9 to 0. We also played Mindoro and Galesville, beating Mindoro twice and Galesville once. In all we won four games and lost two, one to Cashton and one to Gales- ville as above mentioned. The ing scores are for the last four Salem 11 Galesville 4 Salem 22 Mindoro 4 Salem 0 Galesville 2 Salem 10 Mindoro 2 TRACK On April 23rd our track reported for its first workout and about twenty boys turned out for practice. The following day the air was filled with complaints of stiff arms, legs, etc. The boys had to settle down and work conscientiously, for two weeks later the Coulee Conference meet was scheduled. A week after the Coulee Conference meet the District meet is to be held at La Crosse, on May 5th. As this annual goes to press we wish that the boys participating will have lots of luck and hope they will bring home some real honors.

Since that time we have increased the membership to fifty three. I believe they all agree that we have had to work plenty hard this year, more than in any previous year. We have band practice every Tuesday and Thursday morning at 8:10 A. M. and besides this we have our band classes for each individual. On the mornings when there isn’t band rehearsal we have orchestra practice, so the only morning we have free is Monday. Nevertheless I feel that band and orchestra are surely worth our time. If when a student graduates from high school he is able to play some sort of instrument, he will have a much better time at college, because he will probably be able to play in the College Pep Band and go to the football game. Some colleges have big concert bands which make tours of the U. S. and sometimes go to Europe. While making these tours the students will gain very much valuable information, more than by studying from books. In our own town a school band always adds life and color to large occasions that are taking place. On Armistice Day and Memorial Day we generally play for the parade and then for the program. Without a band these programs wouldn’t seem to have any spirit to them at all. For about the last month we have been practicing for the tournament to be held at Reedsburg on April 27th. West Salem will probably be placed in Class “B' rated according to the experience of the players. The name of the selection required for Class “B” is ‘‘Finale’’. In previous years we have always come through with high honors in every tournament where we competed, and we hope to keep up this record if we possibly can. We have a new way in keeping up the attendance of the band now, and it seems to be working out fairly well. If a person is absent three times during a semester he is automatically dropped from the band and three tardy marks count as an absence. In this way we keep our attendance close to 100%.
