High School Notes.

The Thanksgiving football game was well attended, the gate receipts being nintey dollars. The score was 29 to 3, an easy victory for the home team. This game ends the football season, a very successful one, our boys having been beaten only once, out of six games. The temporary schedule for basketball practice is as follows: Monday, 4 to 6 p. m., grade teachers; Tuesday, high school girls; Wednesday, eighth grade boys; Thursday, eighth grade girls; Thursday evening, Methodist Brotherhood boys; Friday evening, games. All have returned from the short vacation with renewed interest in their studies. The report cards were given out Tuesday afternoon for the second six weeks. There is a perceptible improvement over the last reports. The girls’ basketball team of Wheatfield has challenged the Rensselaer girls for a game next Friday night. The faculty are considering the question and all the girls interested in basketball are anxiously awaiting their decision. There was a meeting of the athletic association Wednesday morning and a report of the finance committee read. The association has received the offer of either the 22nd or 23rd of December from the Carolina Jubilee Singers, and have appointed a committee to investigate their proposition with the view of bringing them here on one of the above dates. It is hoped that by this means the indebtedness of the association may be paid and a small working balance left for future needs.
