One example of sportsmanship is the attitude of both players and spectators at a basketball game. As most of you know, the Yellow Jackets played Cromwell last Friday night. The stingers were defeated 2 6 to 29. At this game there was poor sportsmanship shown on both sides as far as the crowd was concerned. Both Syracuse and Cromwell fans booed or yelled during free shots, especially the last couple minutes of the game. Perhaps some of the new s*udents of our high school do not understand that it is against the majority of the students’ principles to do such things. Even if the other side does boo our team, we can hold our tempers and not show poor sportsmanship. Several of our boys were injured during the ball game last Friday, one of which could not continue in the game. Because of this, I overheard one Cromwell student remark after the ball game: “Maybe we had better help Syracuse carry their team home.” This was a very rude and ill-mannered remark because neither accident could be helped. They could be grateful it was not one of their own players. So far, I have given views of crowds’ sportsmanship, but it is just as important and even more so that our team show this fine quality. There is always one thing that most players do that spectators notice. That is, when one goes out of the game on fouls he looks and acts as if he would like to eat some one alive (In most cases the referee). There is no reason for his acting this way. Perhaps the referee did call a foul on him that he didn’t do, but, you must remember he has a big job on his hands and cannot see everything. You know, no one is perfect. The only thing you can do in a case of this kind is to take it calmly and be more efficient and alert in the games to come. You have learned your lesson and should take advantage of it. Since both students and players have had their lectures let’s see how well we can apply these things next Friday night when we play Leesburg here. Be sure and give the yell leader all the support you can. PARDON US! } If anyone went to Leesburg last Friday to see Syracuse play, I’m very sorry, for we had it announced that way in this paper last week. Syracuse went to Cromwell last Friday, and will play Leesburg this Friday night. This error was my fault, and I am very sorry if anyone was disappointed because of it. , Editor. I would like to thank Betty FilLand Nelda Jackson, who so ably assisted me in getting the news ready for Tuesday, November first when I was so busy working on the class play. —Katharine E. Dillen, editor.

Things You Ought To Know

In Physics class Mr. Fidler has been giving special topics to individuals of the class. When Nelda Jackson got up to discuss her topic, she glanced over the room and started. Nelda,' why didn’t you tell Mr. Fidler what you were laughing at? Maybe it is a good thing after all. Information Bureau Certain Junior girls claim that the rings found on their fingers are the class rings that they orderedWe think it is queer, though, that the res of the class haven’t theirs also and that certain Sophomore girls should orde<r rings with them. Anyway, upon examining the rings one could never guess that these

ladies were students at good old S. H. S. Tish! Tish! What is this, girls? A fad? A contest? Or maybe an exchange for a heart. Anyone wishing to sell, a heart, desiring a ring for the price of it, or wishing to enter the contest can get first hand information from Evelyn Bittner, Lois Dillen, and June Metcalf (Juniors) or Helen LeCount, Virginia Gassoway and Ruth Rarig (Sophomores). Edna Bell, a Senior, might know something about it, too. Advice to Girls 1. Never made a date with a biology student; he enjoys cutting up

too much. 2. The tennis man is all right but he enjoys a racket. 3. Watch out for the baseball man, he hits and runs. 4. Be careful of a member of the dramatics club, he usually has good lines. 5. Don’t play cards with civil engineer, he is a bridge specialist. 6. Always let a member of the band talk about himself; he enjoys tooting his own horn. —Red and Blue, Kokomo, Ina.
