THE YEARLY TATTLER ATHLETICS FOOTBALL Tin football season opened September twelfth with prospects not very bright. Five of the old players returned to school and there were fifteen candidates for a place on the first team. John Braclaus was chosen captain. Coach Necsam and Captain Braclaus worked very hard and kept the boys practicing on the gridiron almost constantly. It proved a very successful season as we won five games and tied one and lost one. The latter two were later defeated in return games. It would be very difficult to pick the stars as all played exceptionally well. BASKETBALL Rnsketball proved to hr real entertaining this w inter. We played von- well due to the splendid work of Coach Nec«nm. We won cieht earner and lost five. One of the most exciting gamc was with the Edgcrton High School team to whom wc lost. Our last game was with the Bradley Mill team and we won the Cit Championship from them bv the score of 34 to 14. 1 lie general hip of Captain Braclaus played no small part in the success of the team. BASEBALL Baseball practice started about the first of May. Arthur Spears was chosen captain. The players were practically all new men and of course were verv poor at first. However it d:d not take them long to pick up and wc had five victories and two defeats. Wc hope for a better team next year. LAWN TENNIS We have some real champions among both girls and boys when it come to placing tennis and we all take a keen interest in the game. A new outfit was just recently purchased for the bo vs and Stephen Somogii was given charge of it. He has marked off the court near the baseball field and as soon as weather permits some hot games can be expected. C» Y M N A ST ICS and MIIA T A R Y The gymnasium exhibition proved that wc have two real good instructors in gymnastics. Miss Gates, the girls instructor, taught the baby girls a flag drill, the medium size girls a few real fast exercises and the upper study girls a wand dnll and snake race. The boys, under Mr. Cameron and Mr. Jacobson, made ideal soldiers and some of the jumping was wonder 1 ul. I he small boys arc getting a good start too and in future years wc hope they will star on our football team.
