High School Athletes Received Coveted Letters.

“R’s” were presented this Thursday morning to the high school students who had played in the required number of football and basketball games to earn them. The “R” was a beautiful Old English design and those receiving the letters will wear them on their sweaters. H. F. Parker, the football coach, presented the letters to the football players and Rev. J. C. Parrett presented them to the basketball team members.

The election of a basketball captain for* next year will take place this evening and indications are that Jimmie Babcock, of Parr, will be chosen.
