ST. ANDREW'S BOYS HAVE DEBATE TEAM

Last week the eighth grade organized a ' debating team. The members are R. Schmidt, Howard Kahle. Paul Feldhaus, Albert Snedeker, Vincent Juerling and Paul Schwendenraann. They will have debates with teams that are now being organized in other rooms. On Friday a debate was held between the eighth grade team and a volunteer team, from the ninth grade. Some good questions were given by both sides, but it closed a tie. "I'll Take Soup, Please" The children of the first grade had a cafe in their room. Each child had a menu and, besides the krticles to eat, they had to write he price and find the total amount. Then they had to read the articles and the total cost. This wa3 done to teach them to read better and to be quick at figuring. "Take Care or You'll Get Wet!" There is a large umbrella on the board in the first room. The children were given a problem to work orally. If they could work it, they put their initials under the umbrella, but if they could not solve the problem they had to put their initials outside the umbrella among the chalky raindrops. Second Room Has Race The children of the second room had a race of the multiplication tables. The boys won with a score of 15 to 9. They also had a spelling match between the boys and girls. They ran neck and neck, but the boys won by a close margin, 11 to 10. Sixth Room Has Busy Week The pupils in the sixth room have enjoyed a very busy time this last week. They had a race in grammar .and they had a review of all the principal bays, gulfs, cities, etc., in the United States. On Wednesday they wrote compositions on a loaf of bread. War is Declared War has been declared in the fourth grade, and a very Interesting war it is. One of the boys takes the "fort" and commands it while the rest of the class marches forward and storms the fort with questions in grammar. The "general" has to answer these. As soon as he makes a mistake, the one who gave the question takes command of the "fort," and the one who holds the "fort" longest wins the battle. Richard Busson and William Hock held it longest Grade Dramatizes Story The fifth erade is dramatizing the story of "William Tell." Thev are getting along very well with it, except that William Tell is having a hard time to hit the apple on his son's head. Paul Schwendemann, reporter for St. Andrew's. WONDER 5 TEAM WALLOPS RAVENS l Superior basket shooting along with the fighting spirit of the Wonders enabled them to pull a game out of the fire and beat the West Side Ravens, Saturday, Feb. 3, on the Garfield floor by a score of 13 to 9. Despite the fact that the Wonders were handicapped by the absence of one of their players, the team had enough punch to put the game on Ice. The two teams fought on even terms during the first half, 6 to 6, the Wonders had few shots at the basket due to the close guarding by the Ravens, however most of the shots were made. On the contrary the losers could not connect with the basket, missing many short shots. The defense of the Wonder Five was a bit weak at times during the game. Vosler put up the best floor game for the winner while Clark connected with the hoop and most times. " Chamberlain was high score man for the Ravens and M. Shank put up a good fight at back guard.
