I was leaving the S'hool gymna sium with a group )f high school students, following.a game with our arch rival. Hiilicle. The Lin coln High girls wn 27-21. but flic boys lost. Tit group was criLicizing certain ndividuais on tile boys’ team, sayhg such things as: "The Lincoln^ High School boys can’t play basketball.” “They try to star too mucL” “And there is too much indivilual playing.” The problem seens to be to get this group as well as others, to support the teans, boys’ and gifts.'' !iO iiTarrm—T' ■'itstv—v r t c— ook come may be. Some praise is due each and every indwidual on the teams, whether they win or lose. It is sportsmanship to give com plete cooperation, in putting over the athletic program. If you can not bark (praise) don’t bite! Leonard Powell. Class 1 B News This is our first writing of news since Christmas and %ve must say that Santa was very good to us and that made us have a good time while we were out of school. 'We lost one of rur classmates since Christmas. Her name was Albiu'tine Baldwin. Slie moved to another town. In January, we ieaimed about Ben Franiclin and how he saved his pennies, nickeis and dimes when he was a little boy. Some of u:-: said that we !of) cfinld save some of our pennies and nickels which we spend for gum and can dy. We have saved some of them and pLit. them in a class bank. We now have .S2.37 in the har.k and 13 girls and boys iiave money in the bank. We hope to buy some War Stamps. Our teacher ga-e the class tests Jan. 25-27. It was fun for us to have tests in leading, num bers, writing and ivt. Some did very well and othe.s did poorly. We hope to do better. January 30th wss a big day for our class becaum it was our fii-st day to come to school in the morning. We also {iave our first program in chapel.

The Spartans were warlike people, that is. they liked to fight. The Athenians liked the better things of life, such as drama and music. Athens was the greatest democracy of Greece. Pericles was an outstanding pro moter of democracy. Socrates and Plato vvere great Greek think ers. The Greeks made many con tributions to the world, some of which were: government, drama, art, architecture, literature, wis dom: and patterns for beautiful 'omrrrmgs. —By Carolyn Brewer. Eighth Grade "B" Presents Chapel Play The 8B presented a play, “Pud gy Saves the Day.” in the gram mar grade assembly on February I, 1950. The play centered around a gi'oup of teen-age girls who in a hustle and bustle prepare for the arrival of their grandmother whom they wish to please in or der to attend the local garden party. They displayed their han diwork before grandmother’s cri tical eyes. They gave her reports on the last book that she had left for them to read. It was very SLirpi'ising to learn that Pudgy was the only one who had read the right book, thus “Pudgy Saves the Day."
