The seniors presented an inspiring and impressive Armistice Day program in the gymnasium Friday morning, with Robert Huhn as master of ceremonies. Both basketball teams won Friday night at Tefft. Saturday night in the first games on the home floor, both local teams played nice ball, but the first team lost to Reynolds. Both the school and the teams appreciate the presence of so many boosters Saturday night and hope for even more Friday night to see the games here with Griffith. Both teams were defeated Tuesday night at Wheatfield. The first team was far behind at the third quarter, but gained during the last quarter, and lost by only a few points. Both teams played good ball. Albert Terpstra and George Suffern visited school Friday. The freshmen have selected Old Rose and Silver for their class colors.
