Root for the winners. Miss Maud Holly of Lake Geneva was a high school visitor Wednesday. Basket ball game Thursday evening. Seventh grade boys vs. eighth grade boys. , Laura (reading): "He felt impelled to slap his leg again and cram his feet (fist) into bis mouth." Teacher: "What is a lid?" First grade pupil: "Why, something you wear on your head." Current events were discussed this week by Alta Went worth, Agnes Fris- by, Vinton Thompson and Emily Smith. The reason we girls lost the game Friday evening at Elgin was because we trcp.tr? th: £:cr an ,f were "James" instead of "gym" (Jim). St. Patrick's day was duly celebrat­ ed by the "wearin' of the green"--ties, flags, pennants, girdles, blouses, skirts, shamrocks, green carnations, clay pipes and yellow ties. Elgin hall Is not so small; This is the reason, That in this season We lost the ball. Happenings at Elgin last Friday and Saturday: • Verona tore her coat while escaping from the clutches of a maniac at the asylum Saturday afternoon. "Smoker" car for smokers only, girls! Of course some of us were a bit flustered on our way home. One of our girls was obliged to eat her ice cream with a tablespoon at one of the Elgin ice cream parlors. (Of course emergency does away with con­ ventionality). Senior girls talking about a class play: PFirst senior girl: "This play is all nght, only there are too manytooys and not enough girls." Second senior girl: "Couldn't"we change that man-servant to a maid?" First ttouiui girl: "Oh, but this is supposed to be in a bachelor's apart­ ments." Second senior girl: "Well, I should think--" First senior girl: "We'll let you play the maid, then; you seem to enjoy the situation.'* War pictures at Stoffel'shall tonight. Hear Mr. Warner talk on the war at Stoffei's hall tonight. Work on the new West Side garage is progressing favorably. Another lot of gold fish #111 arrive at MeAJlitter's dru* store next week. Three basttet ball games were played by McHenry teams during the past week and as a result one more vifctory has been added to the long list of wins already registered by our speedy high school team.* On Friday evening of last week the McHenry high school girls journeyed to Elgin, where they were met and de­ feated by the Academy girls of that city, the game having been played at the National gymnasium. Three weeks ago these two teams met at the McHenry gymnasium, the McHenry girls winning by the score of 8 to 2. This so encouraged the girls that they went down to the Watch city last "Friday evening with full ex­ pectations of "copping" off the honors. Before going any farther with our story it would be well to state that the Elgin girls still felt the sting of defeat which was handed them here1 and vis­ ible signsx of revenge adorned their countenances as they entered the floor. However, this did not dampen the en­ thusiasm of the McHenry girls, as each member went in to win, and never can it be said that they lost because of their failure to try. It was the McHenry girls' first game away from home and, to say the least, they made a most creditable showing. Elgin's line-up was considerably strong­ er than. when the team played here, but our lassies made them exert them­ selves bo get away with the game. According to the Elgin Courier, good team work on the part of the Elgin players won them the game, while they credited Jane Owen and Mayme Barbian with the best work for the McHenry team. Mary Bonslett was not feeling very well and gave way to Alta Wentworth in the second half. This now gives each team one win and the McHenry. girls are quite anxious to have the tie played off, as they feel that they are just as good if not a bit better players than their El­ gin sisters.

PrMhnuui DdNt Styh«n«M A double header was played at the school crymnasium last Saturday even­ ing, the freshman girls winning over the sophomore girls, while the regular high school five took the measure of the McHenry alumni team. Considerable rivalry has existed be­ tween the girls' teams of the school ever since the beginning of the season and by winning Saturday night's con­ test the freshmen now lay claim to the school championship, so far as the girls' teams are concerned. It was originally intended that two' games would be played between the girls' teams on Saturday evening and the regular high school five were ex­ pected to be on hand to defend their title to the championship, but on ac­ count of their non-appearance, coupled with the fact that the freshmen won over the sophomores, the freshman girls are now styling themselves as the school champions. * The two teams lined up as follows: Freshman (9) Sophomore (2) B.

In for­ mer years the alumni players have al­ ways carried away the annual honors, i>uL thio pi w * cil aix e£C«~g«..4d^ to the rule, as our speed boys from the high school could not see things in that light and forced their opponents to take the count, the final score being 24 to 10 in favor of the highs. •As previously stated, the game was anytning but a tame affair. The alum­ ni was out t>o defend their title, while the high school players were there to dislodge their opponents from their lofty position, which they succeeded in doing after one of the most stubbornly fought battles ever waged in the new gymnasium. Every man on the high school team played his position in a faultless man­ ner, while Page for the alumni players is credited with the best work. The line-ups and scores follow: Alumni (10) High School (24) F. Bonslett Petesch Miller Richardson G. Bacon L. Bacori J us ten Page R. F. Thomas L. F. Conway C. Knox R. G. Dodge L, G.

These two teams came together on the local floor some weeks ago, McHenry winning by a few points. As both teams are out for the cham- nionRhii) of McHenry county one of the best games ever played in the north­ ern part of the state is looked for. By winning the game McHenry will be given an excellent opportunity of win­ ning the championship as well, as our boys have already defeated every team they have met this season.
