CIIAIHIL EXERCISES
Our chapel exercises for the p.ist
two weeks have been a great im
provement over wh,at they formerly
were. We enjoy having good speak
ers on each chapel day. and like the
variety afforded. Last week our
chapel exercl.ses were conducted by
Rev. N. G. Bethea, of State Street
Methcdi.st Protestant church. Dr.
Leonard of First Reformed church,
and ,1. T. Hedrick, a prominent busl-
nes.s man of Lexington.
We the L. H. S. Basket Ball girls,
wish to thank each and every man in
Lexington who rendered us any fin
ancial aid for our basket-ball trip.
It seemed that every cent was given
willingly and cheerfully. We appre
ciate this very much and want to as
sure you that you have our most
profound gratitude. If at any time
you want anything done, which, we
can do, or help do, please call on us.
We tried, while we were away, to
hold up the name of Lexington in
every way. and feel that our trip was
made possible by your aid.
The Girl’s Basket-Ball Team left
Lexington Tuesday morning for a’
five days trip to eastern North Caro-
lina. We spent most of the morning
in Greensboro, and in the afternoon
we played our first game against
Gibsonville. We won this 33-16. That
night we spent in Durham at the
Hotel Malbourne. The next dax
which was Wednesday, we W’ent to
Raleigh where we stayed at the “Sir
Walter” for the remainder of the
trip. That afternoon we played
Carey and won, 3 9-11. Thursday
morning we visited the State peniten-
tiarj’, seeing the electric chair and
other things of interest. That night
we rode out to Wake Forest and
played them, which game we won by
a score of 51-7. In this game, the
team as ‘a whole seemed to play its
snappiest gam-e of the season. Fri
day morning we made a visit to Dix
Hill Insane Asylum, which some of
us enjoyed very much, although a
few were taken for some of the in
mates’ long lost daughters. Friday
afternoon we met our only defeat at
the hands of Peace, 18-21. Although
we were beaten, it is something to
say that it took a college to accom
plish this defeat. Saturday we went
to the “Blind InsUtute,” and also to
the Senate, where we sat in the Sen
ate seats. We. left Raleigh Satur
day afternoon, arriving home that
night. Both ways of the trip were
made by bus. As a whole we con
sidered It a very profitable trip to
end our basket-ball season with. This
season out of fourteen games played
we have lost only two, one to Trinity
by one point, and the other to Peace
Institute,
