tourney is over now, but thoughts of it are still uppermost in many people’s minds. MHS’s sincere congratulations goto Berne school and its fine basketball team for

wining the annual event. Now that 'the tourney has been over for almost a week, let’s sit back and look over some of the highlights and sidelines of the game. —M.H.S.— Thursday night saw the Geneva’ Cardinals wining over the Pleasant Mills Spartans and Berne beating Adams Central. Both of these games were exciting and there were many Monmouth fans present to cheer for their choice of these teams. -M.H.S.— ' t* Friday night was THE night for Monmouth. The Eagles met

THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

the Hartford Gorillas and there was a real battle before the Gorillas managed to win the game by a score of 49 to 41. The MHS cheering section was the best that it has been all year and merited much favorable comment. The cheer bloc's members were all wearing white shirts or blouses and aark trousers or skirts. The Monmouth fans really made themselves heard when they “let loose” with the old standby yells or the peppy new ones. Seated next to the bloc was the band, which did its best to fclay the Eagles on to a victory. Included in the band program was a new number in which the band and cheering section both participate. Then, of course, there were the school songs ana outer standard “ball game numbers.” —M.H.S.— All in all it can be said that Monmouth school made a good showing for itself at the tourney Friday night, but next time, look out! Monmouth intends to make more than one showing!

Most of you know the rest of the tourney story. On Saturday afternoon Berne defeated Geneva, and Hartfor won over Decatur Catholic.* Then in the finals, on Saturday evening, the Berne Bears defeated the Hartford Gorillas to win the tourney. It can be said that every school participating in the tourney did its best to make it a good one, and good sportmanship prevailed throughout most of the games. It was a good tourney, fans, but remember do your best to keep the sectional on just as high a level. —M.H.S.— In case you naven’t been keeping up on the second teams, that tourney was also held last week. On Monday night the Monmouth seconds were beaten by Hartford’s second team. Hartford and Berne in the final game of the second were the two schools who met tourney. Berne was also the winner of the second team trophy. Nice going, Berne! —M.H.S.— Rev. Wilson from the Antioch Missionary Church was chapel

speaker last Wednesday. Group singing, led by Mrs. Gerig, opened the service, after which Mr. Jones introduced Rev. Wilson, who gave a very inspiring talk to the student body. The grade school held its chapel service immediately following the high school service. I —M.H.S.— Everyone should keep his eyes open for the next few weeks, for very soon the juniors will begin their magazine sales. You know the juniors they are those friendly kids who sold you your Christmas cards last fall The money from the magazine project will go into the junior class fund, so be sure to take advantage of this opportunity to renew your old subscriptions and perhaps subscribe to an interesting new magazine. The juniors will appreciate any help that you give them. -M.H.S.— Monmouth’s sincere thanks go to the senior class of 1956. This class has purchased for the school 60 steel folding chairs. It seems that a school never has too many

chairs, and these are ready for use noyr that the shop boys have placed “MHS Class of 1956” pn the backs of the chairs. —M.H.S.— On Tuesday morning of this week the seniors all piled into cars driven by various members of the class and went to the county court house to attend impressive naturalization ceremony for several people who are now citizens of this • country. All the students who attended the ceremony feel that it was very educational for them, and would like to extend their thanks to the court house officials who made it possible for them to be there. —M.H.S.— Another semester had ended and report cards come out this week. Congratulations to all students who made the honor and also to those who have perfect attendance records for the semester. Os course there are some students who intend to work a little harder and better their record for the next semester.

The sophomores have been quite busy lately working on their research papers for English classes. These have all been turned in by now and it is reported that almost all of the papers have been well written and are very interesting. Some of the topics for the reports were “Raising Mink,” "Recreational Life of American Indians,” and "Law Enforcement" In preparing these papers the sophomores learned how to outline, prepare a bibliography, and use footnotes. They are sure to find this information useful when they write reports for other classes. Recently several excited sth and •th graders tried out for sth and 6th grade cheerleaders. They were Ruth Ann Beery, Kay Stevens, Dick Goldner, Diane Miller, Carol Ann Devine, and Sandra Üby. The winners were Ruth Ann Beery and Kay Stevens. Good hick in your cheerleadering, girls. Let's hear some real yelling when the sth and Bth grades play a game. « , L-
