The second team played first and succeeded in defeating Wilmot by a score of 18 to 10. This game was very close and exciting up until the last quarter, when Hopper, Page and Green all succeeded in scoring. The Wilmot boys had a very good start. They made two baskets in the first few minutes of play, but the McHenry boys kept right on fighting and at last copped the honors. The first team boys played a very close game until after the half, when Bacon was forced to retire on account of lameness of his left hip. Zeke had been playing a very good game at running guard and had made four points at the end of the first half. At the end of the last half the score stood 16 to 7 in favor of Wilmot. The McHenry boys are hoping to return the compliment and defeat Wilmot when they play here. McHenry 1st FG. FT. PF. FTM.

A return game will be played with them on Dec. 28, at this time both of the McHenry teams will journey to Crystal Lake. On Tuesday"--fright of next week Hebron teams play at McHenry. Last year McHenry played three very exciting games with Hebron. This year we will play two games with them and we can "assure you of both being good games. V On Friday night Mr. Major of Elgin will referee the game between Gurnee and McHenry. Mr. Biester of Glen Ellyn will referee the McHenry and, Hebron game here next Tuesday. Z Bernard Newman ia ovt for practise with the first team. He played a part of the game at Wilmot, in which he made a very good showing. There was a large group of rooters that went with the teams t$ Wflmot last Friday night. We are *jMP* they were not disappointed tft . the two games that they saw. ." * . Harold Bacon is out 'of practise for this week on account of an injury received in the Wilmot game. It is hoped that he can take part in the game Friday night with Gurnee.

We must admit the seniors are improving greatly. The juniors and sophomores have arranged for a practice game next Thursday night at 7:30. , Lillian SENIOR SCHOOL NOTES Senior oral book reports are due this quarter. . r The seniors are preparing for debates, also extemporaneous speechmaking. The seniors are busy collecting ads" for the annual.. We need everyone's co-operation. The glee club is now learning the choruses for the operetta to be givei) sometime in February. Several of our seniors think they are in love. Furious brushes in the laboratory indicate this. Mr. Wells: "Miss Freund, did I hear you say you would like to go to the office? You may go if you can't stop giggling." Several members of the high school are busily engaged in preparing for the annual entertainment of the community Christmas tWse." The sMUjfft, have discovtMd • defi nition fear lev#: Love is a feeling that you feel when you feel a fueling that you never felt before. A number of the seniors journeyed to Wilmot to see the game. Of course we are very much disappointed at the defeat and hope for victory in the next game. „ / After a party, as,the car stopped at Stilling's residence. Ernie B,: "How many are staying here tonight?" Rosalie: "Why, are you looking for a place.to stay?" Florence volunteering to take Cornelia home on a very dark night: "Gee, Cornelia, I ought to take you home." < .. *„< Cornelia: "No, I'm not cold." V ^ What would happen-- &'.T* If Cornelia and Rosalie didn't talk the fourth period? If "Red" wouldn't always be fooling with the freshman boys? If Pamela wouldn't help Winnie with her algebra the sixth period? If Ethel Biggersyand Carolyn would work the fourth period?

JUNIOR CLASS NOTES Carl Weber is absent tc^ay* Florence has been absent for tfce last week. Harold Bacon was absent a few days last week. * We notice that Jesse is all scratched up. Who is she, Jesse ?» Millie has a new black jpvttater. Jesse told her he liked it very well. We wonder why.

Tools must nave a strung uesili lor j oiling sewing machines. It is. quite a pastime at that. We want to take this opportunity 'to congratulate the sewing classes ton the success of their exhibit. William Beth has the bright future as a writer. Some of the Eng. II students consider him better than Jaick London. The boys surely showed their appreciation of bright colors Friday Afternoon. Ask Mr. Stringer for some of the bright remarks. There was a sigh of relief in sewing I class when Miss Stockebrand said we wtfuldN be excused from staying after school Tuesday night. Since when are holly hocks used in flower beds ? Also by the description of the McHenry park in Eng. II we ougjit t&3be proud of it. The second team is to be congratulated on their winning the basket ball game at Wilmot. Everyone remarks about their grand team work. Wonder who the girl in zoo class said that for one of the evidences for constant is thsft man i3 getting more attractive. Some of us agree with her, don't you? The zoology class was so quiet Monyj: day morning that they hoped Mr. ^ Duker would look in and see how good they really can be. Of course there was no such good luck. There were a number of students that went to Wilmot to the basket ball game Friday night. Even tho McHenry was defeated we're not giving up hope of winning other games. The sophomore assembly was surprised at Richard Overton's early appearance one morning. As it happened Mr. Stringer was a little late so Richard took the responsibility as teacher. ' Last Friday Miss Stockebrand gave out a list of health rules to the physi- Slogy class. All rules are pretty well observed except rule regarding eight hours sleep each night. Wonder if there are any exceptions? Dick Overton has a tendency to piake use of his play things in modern history. Miss Ashburner has taken some of them. We thought he looked kind of pale. He must be heart broken. You've got our sympathy, Dick. Adele Pufahl. Miss Ashhurner's English I class is beginning Ivanhoe. Did Torchy have a goo^ time Friday at Wilmot? Ask Minnie. Adeline Perkins was absent Monday. I wunuer why.. Ask Carl TiiOFocll. Mr. Stringer's Latin I class is struggling along with the conjugations. Sophs: Beware the fjreshias are getting long .pants. Yes, the girls, too. James Fay came out in long green pants. The color is certainly appropriate, isn't it? Fatty Carr has been working hard all week to vamp the girls with "his new fussy wuzzy on. Mr. Tallmadge's ancient history students are beginning a new chapter on Alexander the Great. Found--On Mr. Tallmadge's desk. Couldnt find' you -or the lobster so left. Signed, Grace G. Mr. Tallmadge is going to desect Mr. Wells and make a plaster paris model of him if he doesn't watch out. Some little freshies have sore throats. Still the first team Tost. We hope they have better luck next time, particularly with Wilmot. Mr. Stringer: "My, what a bright Latin I class I have." " John Wilson: "How could we help it, look at our bright teacher." What would happen if-- Kenneth Granger had his history lesson ? Elizabeth Boger didn't take the shine off her nose in history class? Minnie didn't make eyes at "her Joe?" Bernard Newman didn't,have.lip sticks ? Wm. Young didn't write notes to Letah ? Marion Wegener didnt study? Hazel Bacon didn't look lflreftfie hust rose of summer?
