THE Whitewater junior High School basketball team began playing in Jan- uary under the' direction of Coaches Ritz- man, Goers, and Truesdale. Practices were held once a week and a schedule of games was arranged by the coaches. Although the team belongs to the Y.M.C.A. all games are scheduled separately. This year the Junior High team had the surprising record of having almost their whole team from the eighth grade. Those from the eighth grade who saw a lor of service were Henderson, Kreger, Mc- Caslin, Lee, Wellers, and R. McLean. Bob McGinn from the ninth grade played for- ward with Henderson and Kreger. Norm Kreger, who in the past had been serving as guard, was moved to forward when Howard Rebenstorf came out for the team. With McLean and Rebenstorf at guards, McCaslin at center, and Hender- son, Kreger, or McGinn at forwards, the team functioned unusually well. Wellers and York, the big boys on the team, did some very fine relief playing. The Y.M.C.A. County Tournament was held in Whitewater March 26. Both gyms were used for games during the whole day. The College High B team and the Junior High team carried off the honors. THE season finished April 4 with the county championship game played be- tween the two Whitewater teams. The College High B team was the victor. Whitewater J.H.S. 19 City High Y , S Whitewater J.H.S. 22 City High .

PRIMARY DEPARTMENT Travel is the Main VISITING the Training School proves to be an enlightening experience for most people. There is no atmosphere of having to go to school , it is rather one of This is lots of fun. Swimming and dancing lessons are provided throughout the year, and older boys and girls take manual training and domestic science. Music work is carried on by Miss Jordalen. After the Hrst graders learned to sing by note they worked on an oper- etta, while the third graders made xylo- phones and then composed music and played in concert. The fourth, fifth, and sixth grades sang a two part Cantata for their parents, and a radio appearance was made by the Hfth and sixth grade choir. Three part harmony is used by the sixth grade in their classes. Under Miss Tutt's supervision the chil- dren's first experiences in school are made as pleasant and happy as possible. The kindergarten materials lend themselves to many kinds of construction work and dramatic play. Play house, work bench, Interest clocks, sand table, rubber balls, game table, wooden toys, clay, scissors and paste, story books, pets, rhythm band in- struments, dishes, utensils for serving and cooking real food,-all contribute to the life of the youngest members of the school. THE first and second grade instruction attempts as far as possible to achieve its objectives through units of work or activities. Running parallel with these, however, are classes of a more formal nature where skills in fundamental sub- jects may receive more organized atten- tion. Among the units of interest in the first grade during the year have been a grocery store, a post ofhce, a movie show- ing the development of transportation, the construction of trucks and airplanes, a circus, and spring nature projects. Miss Tutt teaches the Hrst grade. Second graders have learned to substitute writing for printing and to read more intelligent- ly. With Miss Madden's help they, too, have been interested in project work.
