The latest reports forth coming
from the Coffee Shop say thus as
to the number of articles sold per
day:
Beverages—One dozen bottles,
root beer, cokes, and oranges
preferred.
Pie—One dozen plain pieces.
Pie a la mode — One dozen
"Glorified pieces".
Rolls—One dozen.
Bismarks—Two dozen.
Coffee—Thirty cups.
Gum—Four packages.
Drumsticks—Two Dozen.
Cheerios—One Dozen.
Pencils-150 have been sold so
far this year.
Stamps—Two or three dollars
worth.
The most popular candy bar is
said to be the Hershey almond
bar of which about ten are sold
per day.
On Thursday, which is Hot-dog
Day, about two dozen "warmed
canines" are sold.
Toasted cheese sandwiches are
now being served for breakfast.
The breakfast patrons are about
twelve in number, the most per-sistent
of which is Mr. Tanyas.
The reason, of course, is obvious.
As to the many reasons students
give for visiting C. S., they are
too numerous and, shall we say,
ludicrous to mention. However, for
one reason or another about 150
pass through its portals at least
once a day.
It's a great place-this Coffee
Shoppee!
In a review of this afternoon's
hard fought game, Coach William
Adam of Bethel said that his boys
played fine ball; the last half show-ed
more determined and spirited
play, said the coach, because the
Gophers tore off our over-confi-dence
of the first half of play.
I hope my boys are ready for
Michigan, answered the coach with
that hang-dog air that only top
notch athlete trainers dare assume.
OH WELL, WE CAN DREAM,
CAN'T WE?
No, it's true we're not in the Big
Ten scoring pigskin victories. Yes,
true, that we haven't a team in
competition even. And yet— —
well, listen to the voice of Bethel.
DOES BETHEL HAVE THE MA-TERIAL?
Mel Wyma: Bethel has, but there
is the question of how many high
quality boys we could get out be-cause
of the work situation.
Hammerbeck
Heads Spire Stall
Johnson Appointed
Work Well Under Way
Information about the Spire has
now been officially released. Ber-nard
Hammerbeck has taken over
the duties of editor and is now
working on page lay-outs and pre-liminary
essentials.
Gene Johnson has been appointed
art editor. Further staff arrange-ments
have not been made.
"This year marks the beginning
of a new chapter in the life of
Bethel; a new president and a wo-men's
dormitory contribute to the
possibilities for advancement in
the future.
"Our Spire this year will be a
pictorial attempt to review the life
of the school. as it flows with ever
increasing vitality in the 'veins'
provided through organizations, fa-culty,
and students,"stated Bernard
Hammerbeck, Spire editor.
Several new feature pages are to
be added to the Spire this year.
One of these is to be on Prayer
and missionary day. Additional
subjects for feature page material
will be chosen later.
Photographers, Roger Rehndal,
Mary Hamline, Stamford Widen,
and Ellwood Norquist, are active-ly
taking pictures of school life,
chapel speakers, etc.
Gene Nyman: We have enough
prospective players here to build
a first-rate team...Most other mem.
bers of the S. Minnesota Confer-ence
have football clubs. Above
all, this sport is one of the best
from a standpoint of physical de-velopment.
Ted Van Der Veer: Sure: come
out and see us Monday and Wed-nesday
mornings. We've got a team
already! (or all ready, Ted?)
Paul Larson: Boy, we've got man-power!
I frankly play end and
guard... End of the bench and
guard of the water pail.
DO YOU WANT TO SEE A FOOT-BALL
TEAM AT BETHEL?
Val Hauk: Yes, I prefer "Chester-field
Rugby." (Sissy!)
Verna Jorgenson: Yes, a team
would help create school spirit.
Earl Johnson: Yes, because there
is too much idle man power a-round
here. Nothing to do!
Students' Conference
Nov. 14-16 at Bethel
It is Bethel's privilege to be host
to the Students' Missionary Con-ference,
November 14-16, for their
Annual Fall Missionary Conven-tion.
The speaker is to be David
H. Adeny, returned missionary
from China.
Mr. Adeny has served seven
years in China with the China
Inland Mission. He is now travel-ing
to colleges and universities in
America under the Inter-Varsity
Christian Fellowship in the interest
of the evangelization of the world:
Other missionaries are being in-vited
to be present at the conven-tion
and to bring a greeting and a
sidelight of their particular field of
service. Thus a more composite
view of world missions in action
will be presented, and will be a
source of inspiration and informa-tion
to all in attendance.
The purpose of the Students'
Missionary Conference is to pro-mote
on international interest
among the students of American
colleges, Bible Institutes, and simi-lar
institutions, in world ,wide Mis-sions.
The main object is to stimulate
a concerted interest in missions,
which will encourage students to
more active participation in their
local missionary organization.
The conference is an out-growth
of the Students Volunteer Group.
Herb Johnson: Sure, everyone at
home asks how our football team
is doing this year... Like the dra-gon,
"I'm reluctant" to say we
haven't one.
Ed Nelson: No! Being a Chris-tian
school I do not believe we
need a team as a means of in-creasing
either spirit or numbers.
Ethel Ruff: No! Bethel has
enough expenses...It would involve
too much equipment and danger of
casualties.
Mae Hulbert: If we have a team
we'll get more publicity.
THE PRESIDENT SPEAKS:
Anything that stirs up enthu-siasm
attracts both the desirable
and the undesirable. The type of
enthusiasm largely governs the
type of student.
Athletics are wholesome assets
of school life. I am much inter-ested
in athletics, but we must

Dr. Lagergren's Death
Is Keenly Felt Loss by
Those Whom He Served
by H. C. Wingblade
A prince in Israel has fallen! DT.
Carl G. Lagergren, for thirty-three
years dean of Bethel Seminary, has
gone to be with the Lord.
Hundreds of Seminary men have
gone out from his classroom to
take their places as pastors, evan-gelists,
and missionaries, and the
stamp of his faith in God's Word
and his faithfulness to his Christ
has been on their hearts and lives.
We see, then, what influence this
one man has had on the work of
our denomination over a period of
decades.
Dr. Lagergren was among us like
a giant oak, like a tree planted by
living waters. Converted at the
age of sixteen, his brilliant mind
sought the halls of learning, in
order to prepare for service. Swe-den's
greatest university became
his alma mater, but Christ was
dearest to his heart.
Early he made his choice to
preach the gospel, but not in the
State Church of Sweden, where he
could have had a lucretive living,
but rather among the despised dis-senters,
the humble Baptists.
After filling distinguished pas-toratees
in Sweden and also carry-

Luther Smith to Speak
Friday; Schedule Change
Because November 7 is the only
day Bethel has opportunity of se-curing
his services for a Convoca-tion
meeting, Luther Wesley Smith
will speak to the student body at
that time. Friday's class schedule
will be set aside in favor of Tues-day's
schedule, third period.
Mr. Smith is president of the
Northern Baptist Publications Co.,
and chairman of education of the
Northern Baptist Convention.
Presentation of The White Cliffs
of Dover in the form of an inter-pretative
reading was made by
Miss Simley of Hamline University.
The author of this is Alice Duer
Miller.
A week ago Dr. Harold C.
Deutsch presented The Changing
Scene in Europe. Mr. Deutsch is
a Harvard graduate, and at present
an instructor at the U. of Minne-sota.
He also is a popular com-
'mentator on the background of
world news. He broadcasts Wed-nesdays
and Fridays at 10:15 p.m.

In Memorium of One Who
Will Long Be Remembered
Gophers Fail to Halt Bethel in Touchtown Plunge
A Play by Play Review by an Alert Reporter
Stragetically at Non-Dormant Dorm
"There's a man in the house! And we mean in! Up on second floor,
if you please. The man was Sid Wyma, and 'twas a very urgent and
mysterious phone call which necessitated his being on second floor one
evening not so long ago. We still don't know what it was about, but did
hear him singing at times. Could it be one of those "singing telegrams"
that love-sick swains croon to their dearly beloveds? If so, we wonder
who SHE is.
Speaking of singing, we of the girls' dorm have a real "opery star" in
our midst. You're apt to hear her at any time of the day or night burst-ing
forth in song. When you make your sleepy, somewhat unsteady way
down the chilly corridors at 6:15 of a morning, she will greet you
cheerfully, with a hearty, "Good Morning to you!" to the tune of "do-do-me-
sol- do." Or if she does not succeed in arousing your spirits thus,
when you are deep in slumber at 12:00 p.m. or thereabouts, her "soothing"
theme-song will go ringing down
the hall. At such times we all
say with a sigh, "Thelma's home;" "OH FRIGHT!"

"`"al e""""1." Swains Swarm Sentry Stationed
One day they hung my Christ upon
a tree,
And left Him there to die for you
and me.
And in the darkness one could hear
Him cry,
"Forgive, they know not Whom
they crucify."
A soldier, standing near with lifted
head,
Turned to another Roman there,
and said,
"Hear ye the mighty rumblings
'neath the sod?
This, truly, was the very Son of
God."
A mother, too, stood by the cross
that night,
But few were there that saw her
sorry plight,
As, with her son, she wept and
cried aloud.
And sorrowed, there amid that
scorning crowd.
With lowered head the high priest
heard their cries,
But when the earth grew dark, he
raised his eyes,
And, looking on the one above, he
cried.
Sir, can it be that we have cru-cified.
Oh, may I ever have this as my
prayer,
Rememb'ring Him who hung and
suffered there:
To live a life that's free of wordly
things;
To have Him rule that life as King
of Kings.
May I recall that even yet today,
By thoughtless deeds of mine along
the way,
I, like those blinded men of long
ago,
May crucify my Lord, and never
know.
"Victoria"
Poor Fellow
Did the impact of Miss Hol-brook's
Esau and Jacob illustra-tion
dig down deep, fellow stu-dent?
Have you thought about it
since then;—those Assamese child
ren's inability to grasp the story
of Esau and Jacob? Esau was hun-gry;
Jacob was foodsatiated; yet
they were brothers. And the little
black boy under her elbow sym-pathetically
breathed, "Poor fel-low."
Those Christians in England
worshipping God in wrecks and
ruins - - -those starving people in
our country and abroad that are
painfully aware of the biting pangs
of hunger - - Those many souls
pleading and crying out for the gos-pel,
for missionaries, and for tea-chers
- - those "those" are our bro-thers
in Christ. Easy enough to
say "poor fellow," but how about
it?
Last year the student body, al-though
somewhat smaller in num-ber
than this year's enrollment,
contributed over one hundred dol-lars
to the Orphan's Mission Fund.
This year with our enlarged con-stituency,
could we not easily go
over the last year's high?
The World Emergency Fund is
not a profiteering device for the
benefit of some Jacobs. It was
organized to meet a real need in
the world today; and to meet this
need in the name of Christ our
Savior. Let's dig down deep for
our contributions and soar way
over the top this year. But wait!
There he is again, that little black
boy sadly saying, "Poor Fellow."
1858 Cloverdale Ave.
Los Angeles, Cal.
Dear Friends.
I'm still here in sunny Cali-fornia
saving for education in
years to come. I was so lone-some
for school that I decided
to go to another "Bd." or Bible
Institute of Los Angeles.
Biola is a fine school with
about 4.00 students. It com-pares
with Moody in its cre-dentials,
spirit, and doctrine.
It's official publication, as you
well know, is "The King's Busi-ness."
Well, that's the way I
spend my time – work and
school work--18 hours a day!
I was sorry for Bethel to
hear that Prof. Hultgren left,
but now we have him in our
midst. We're going to have a
party at our "B" house and he's
going to be here next Saturday
nite. I should say that we
mean Joel Strandberg, Carl
Nordell, Don Tanquist, Allan
Johnson, and myself (The
Minnesota Hungry Five). We
have a six room mansion all
of our own with a grand piano,
etc., Oh everything. Joel made
a trip to St. Patil during his
father's recent illness . . no
doubt some of you saw him.
The main purpose of this
letter was to send a small
contribution for the Girl's
Dorm. (Who says the men
won't contribute?) God has so
richly blessed me that I can
not but give of my means to a
school I love and pray for.
Please greet all the faculty
and students from me person-ally
(and I'd like to hear from
them too). I'm so far from
"B" I wonder what's going on.
Who are the cheerleaders, pho-tographers,
etc? Please ex-cuse
the lack of unity and
poor penmanship displayed in
this letter.
In His Service,
Clifford Bjorklund
"Cliff"
P. S. How come Homecom-ing
is so early this year?
State parties are all the vogue
at the G. D. nowadays. A week ago
last Saturday, some South Dakota-ites
of Bethel were privileged to
dine most sumptuously in our new
dining-room. Among those present
of the "timid sex" were Carl Lund-quist,
Sidney Wyma, and Bob Olson
The supper was in honor of Leona
Pearson, a former Bethelite. The
real South Dakota party, including
all natives of S. D. will be held at
a later date. This Thursday night
the "Middle-East Kids" are to enjoy
supper together.
A new endeavor, and one which
shows great promise of blessing, is
the 10:00 evening prayer meeting
each night in the rooms on second.
floor. The meeting lasts only fif-teen
minutes, for the prayers are
short in that we pray definitely
for one certain thing.
The girls are very willing and
eager to have us use their rooms as
meeting-places. These evening de-devotions
have been of great help,
blessing and inspiration to us all.
If you have any doubt of this,
listen to the girls tell of answered
prayers.
M. E. H.
They Wouldn't
Believe it:
That Miss Johnson is seriously
considering taking a course at
the U. on Mature Thinking . . .
That the girl's in the dorm
ever get any sleep . .
That Janet Lyth is a little
slat-happy . . .
That $56 was appropriated
from our student activities fees
for an enlarged "B" book and
student directory .
But it's a fact!!

BLUFF FROM
THE DORM
Dished up 'a la masculine'
Wow! For a moment we thought
Dave Moberg was sick, but then he
came through per-expected. Hon-est,
we held our breath when "Corn-blossom"
let out that hog-call last
week. It was the "missing link"
to Dave's near perfected "mess"-
system.
Some of the boys play ping pong
to gain entrance to the G. B. - - as
Finke, Swanson, and Anderson.
Others try the musical route - - as
Abrahamson, Travaille, and Hails.
But still others have a premanent
passport - - - as Helsing, Wessman,
and Norstrom. There are still un-developed
methods for social-science
to discover - - - just give the
lads a chance!
There was so much light radiat-ing
from Stripe's face last week
that all the boys became alarmed.
Further investigation showed that
his wife was here. Boy! we wish
she would come more often!
Warner Lundberg had to get a
new press job after the trip to
Milaca Sunday. Does it pay?
Harold Helsing called the police
the other night. Presto - - -flash! !
"Calling all cars ! Calling all cars!
Help locate a '34 Plymouth, rusty
color, one handle missing on the
right door, back window gone, re-cognized
by the pecular knock in
the motor and th-e tinny horn. Left
on Frankson due to the fact that it
strangled on air trying to get the
last drop of gas. Last person to
see the car was a blond living at
1481 Arona."
It certainly does look like Dr.
Deutch's fear of a fifth column is
not ungrounded. Two Dutchmen
of our school are showing their
true colors. In fact, those "Hein-ies"
are terrific!

Enthusiasm and entertainment
running high, freshmen met in the
college chapel last Friday to let
the ghosts and witches have their
sway at a Halloween party.
After a tour through the base-ment
of the building, the "green-ies"
were entertained by a few
"victims" in a truth and conse-quenses
game. The highlight of
this amusement was the bath
taken by Bob Bergerud. The
screen shadow operation also fur-nished
gruesome but amusing enter-tainment.
Other features of the
program were impromtu speeches
and a baritone solo by Ingmar
Larson.
Devotions were in charge of Bud
Peterson and Jacquelyn Malmsten,
with Bud leading songs and cho-ruses,
and Jackie reading the
Scripture. This was followed by
refreshments of cider, doughnuts,
and apples.
Forensics
RESOLVED THAT THE FED-ERAL
GOVERNMENT SHOULD
REGULATE BY LAW ALL LABOR
UNIONS IN THE U. S., was the
question faced by the twenty-seven
students who expressed their inter-est
in forensics a week ago.
The first tournament will be a
pre-season debate held at Gustavus
Adolphus College, St. Peter, Minne-sota,
on November 30.
Gospel Teams
Requests have come in from four
organizations asking that Bethel
appear regularly at various meeting
places. Those organizations re-questing
the services of the teams
are the Linnea Home, the Rouma-nian
Baptist Mission, the Union
Gospel Mission, and the Northeast
Gospel Chapel.
Gospel team members desiring
tracts for distribution are asked to
contact their leaders. Six thou-sand
tracts are available.
Varsity-Alumni Game
The traditional varsity-alumni
basketball game was won by the
former, 61-47, even though the
alumni team was composed of such
stars as Don Johnson, Del Ray
Peterson, Carl Young, Bob Hovi
nen, etc.
Gene Nyman, varsity captain. led
the scoring with 20 points. Bill
Adam led the alumni score ;crest
with 15 points. Don Johnson held
third place with a score of 13.
Enthusiastic spectators added
much to the game, as did the cheer-leaders
: Alumni-Corrine Swanson,
Muriel Salmonson, and Ruth John-son,
also Ted Van der Veer and
Bob Norstrom.
Well, you see, it's this way: I
was worried. Plenty worried. So
I happens to mention it to Simon
Legree, that's what we call the
editor, and she sez, "Maybe a lot
of the Frosh are just as anxious
about Mid-terms as you are. You're
hired. Go out and interview the
teachers."
Boy, it took courage to make
these interviews. It took daring,
but what I learned was plenty en-lightening
. . . and you notice I
didn't say encouraging. Listen
while I rattle off a few responses.
Miss Nelson: If you haven't
started by now, Cub, there just isn't
any use. My tests are definite
and to the point. I anticipate
ninety per-cent will pass. Who are
the other ten per-cent .. . ?
F. E. Nelson: My tests are al-ways
hard. I hope all pass. How-ever
I will give them another
chance even if they fail this one.
Miss Platts: I always make my
tests hard, because the students
don't study unless I do. I feel that
at least ten per-cent will pass, but
the semester test will govern fail-ure.
There is really no point to
start studing about ten o'clock the
night before.
Prof. Norstrom: I have no idea
. . . I am absolutely blank . . . I
don't like to anticipate such things.
My mid terms are very important.
If you flunk, sir, it will be impossi-ble
to pass with more than a "C"
average in the spring.
Miss Sabel: I have already given
my tests. Out of one set of papers
all passed but one. (Oh! Oh! Who
was that one?)
C. E. Carlson: I am hoping for
one-hundred-and-five- per-cent to
pass. (?) Past experiences is no
clue, because the grading system

bear in mind that some things fill
the air and others fill the life. We
are interested in filling the life.
Football is a fine game, and
many fine young people play it.

FROM THE COACH:
There's plenty of material. I al-ways
thought we could have a good
squad. It would be a real drawing
card. Hope we can have one some
day. Wm. Adam
is different this year. My exams
are very important from a view-point
of a student's study habits
If he flunks now he will at semes-ter
also.
Miss Johnson: I think tests are
evil. I plan to pass one-tenth of
one per-cent of my classes. We
teachers really give exams to pun-ish
ourselves for choosing the
teaching professicin.
Dean Karlson: Ninety-five per-cent
will pass. My reason for this
statement is the law of inheritance.
I really don't enjoy giving tests.
Miss Larson: I always know
when exams are on . . . because it
is so very quiet in the halls.
Do we stand a chance? I still
dunno. And I'm more worried than
ever.
In Memoriam
(Continued from page 1)
ing on educational work, he was
called by the General Conference
to assume the leadership of our
seminary, then located in Chicago.
For thirty-three years he filled this
important place, until the age of
seventy-five, when he retired, but
his live mind and zealous soul still
carried on. He wrote a number of
books on Bible Fundamentals, and
various articles appeared from time
to time in our papers.
Dr. Lagergren was a Christian
gentleman. His keen mind loved
the realm of debate as regards
Bible truths. He was always fair
to his opponent. He used to tell
me how the debates raged in Swe-den,
and then he would smile and
say, "But we were men."
I can still see him coming down
Snelling Avenue - - - as he always
aimed to walk to his office with
a step as light as that of any young
man. As you drew nearer to him,
you discerned a friendly smile on
his face, and then you heard the
words of kindly greeting, with per-haps
a little touch of humor.
Yes, "the grand, old man" of our
denomination is gone, but yet he
lives among us - - the loving father,
the friend and brother, the able
instructor, the masterful preacher,
the towering leader - - the Christian
gentleman.
We thank God for Dr. Lagergren.

The Terrible Adventures of Cub

By an Anxious Cub
Trojans Trounce
TremblingWolves
Fifteen Straight
Gophers Head Huskies
Schedule Near Finished
In the last week of the touch-ball
schedule the Trojans are lead-ing
with fifteen victories. There
are exactly three games remaining
to be played in the different sec-tions
before the play-offs begin.
At present, the Trojans and Wol-verines
have completed their sche-dule:
with the Wolverines claim-ing
no victories. This seems to be
a very marked difference, but all of
games have been rather close with
the winning passes or runs being
played in the last stages of the
games.
The success of the Trojan team
is due to their alert backfield and
their hard working line. In the
backfield the Trojans have Bud
Peterson, Al Walker, captain, Ber-nard
Travaille, and Haddon Ander-son.
Anderson has made some
very fine runs, passes and inter-ceptions,
as well as doing some ex-ceptionally
fine blocking.
In the line the Trojans have
Sidney Wyma, Kenneth Christo-pherson,
Norman Hoover, Dana
Larson, Gilmore Lawrence, Gene
Johnson, and Bob Hails. The
Trojans are, of course, hoping to be
undefeated by any team this year.
In the other gym classes, the
Gophers and the Huskies are still
battling back and forth to gain play-off
competition. Right now the
score stands seven to six in favor
of the Gophers, but this week can
make quite a change.
In the sophomore gym class it is
closer than ever, with each team
having six victories. In the last
game played, Roland Gustafson of
the Badgers caught a very nice
pass and ran for a touchdown.
This gave his team a six to nothing
victory over the Jackrabbits.
On November 5 and 6, the final
games will be played. The win-ners

THE BETHEL CLARION
Team Announced Nov. 6
Turning out in great numbers,
the men's basketball candidates
promise a season of hard fought,
high calibre playing. Coach Adam
will announce the players he will
use for varsity session on Novem-ber.

The men have been trying hard
during the shooting set-ups and
scrimmage practices the past two
weeks to impress the coach with
their potentialities.
Because of the wealth of mater-ial
Coach Adam is watching closely,
as he need scout out only the very
best.
Regular practice started Novem-ber
2. During these practices the
coach announced fundamental
practice of plays, etc., and tried dif-ferent
combinations on the plays.
Good freshman prospects are apt
to give last year's lettermen a
battle for team positions. Some
promosing newcomers are: Haddon
Anderson, Gilmore Lawrence, Ar-den
Finke, Gene Johnson, Bob
Hails, Willis Wessman, Gordon
Thompson, and others.
Tracy J. C. recently sent notice
that because of lack of material
they would not offer a team this
year. Coach Adam arranged to fill
this vacancy by signing Sioux Falls.
Because of this arrangement we
will play a double week-end en-gagement.
(Worthington on Fri-day;
Sioux Falls on Saturday.)
will then play the Trojans in the
first play-off game.
The winner of these will play the
winner of the Jackrabbits-Badgers
struggles for the Junior College
championship. The J. C. champs
will play the seminary team for the
all-school championship touch-ball
team of 1941.

Soph's Disgraced
With sheepish grins Lily 01-
son's sophomore WILDCATS
yielded three games straight to
Evelyn Dahiquist's freshmen
TIGERS last Thursday.
In seeming laxness and indif-ference
to the • stakes, the
WILDCATS watched the scores
mount. They were unable to
get hold of themselves even
during the third game when they
snapped out of their daze.
Loud and acrid were the
taunts of Scorekeeper Helsing
and Coach William Adam.
The sophomore cry is for a
rooting section for Thursday's
game, as good as the cheering
provided by the Freshman Hel-sing
last Thursday.
In the Women's
Gym Classes:
Wild Cats 20 Tigers 17
Cubs 19 Bears 12
Hawkeyes 20 Buckeyes • 15
Final play-offs will be run Nov-ember
6. The high scoring teams
are of course the favorites, but as
the story indicates, no game is a
sure game until it is over.
Games will be played after class
hours. The champs, of course, will
receive awards in the spring.
Basketball will be taken up after
the volleyball schedule is finished.
Nineteen Coeds Join
Pre-Season Practice
Three Return to Court
Nineteen girls reported for wo-men's
basketball last Thursday.
Three of these are returning letter-men:
Margaret Erickson, Betty
White, and Alice Schouweiler.
This initial practice promised
good prospects for the coed's sea-son.
Most women's games are
played as preliminary sessions to
the men's varsity games.
Some of the candidates reporting
for practice are: Alice Larson,
Ruth Nelson, Janet Lythe, and Ber-niece
Soder. Beginning November
4th all candidates are asked to re-port
to the gym for practice Tues-day
and Thursday afternoons at 3
o'clock.
Although most games are played
on the home court a few are played
at the Farm School, etc.
