T. H. 8. Held to Tie By Valdosta
Thomaaville High went down to Val
dosta yesterday and* tied them by
score of 12 to 12. The game was well
played, both teams fighting their very
hardest. This game still leaves Thom
aaville In first place, tying with Moul
trie for the Southwest Georgia cham
pionship.
We need a new High School build
ing. Every desk is used and even the
chapel is used. It is outrageous for a
town like Thomaaville to allow such a
condition to exist. In one of the per
iods, a class has to go around the build
ing and enter the class room from the
outside entrance. Why? Because the
halls are so over-crowded that they
Suppose a fire should break out.
The building is supposed to be fire
proof, but it Isn’t Of course the struc
ture is of brick, but the floors, walls,
ceilings, desks and stairs are of wood.
Furthermore, there are no fire es
capes. As I have already stated, the
doors, stairs and halls are crowded by
classes passing from the lower class
rooms. It is the same with the classes
up stairs. What chance would these
two hundred and some odd people have
of getting through the mob down
stairs? There is only one answer—
none whatever, of course. Fire drills
are practiced occasionally and the
classes get out in fire or six minutes.
But suppose that smoke was pouring
forth into the halls. Wouldn’t the
children rush frantically around seek,
log escape, finding none and forgetting
all fire drills in the desire
themselves?
Four of the class rooms are used by
grammar grades. The East Side school
is rather crowded. Why no
present High School building (after
fire escapes have been added) for
other grammar school, and build
bigger, better High School? There
are some extremely large and crowded
grammar grades now. Soon they’ll be
come High School classes and the
present building can not possibly
commodate them all. 'fc
We further suggest that a lunch
room be operated In the new High
School, as they have at the grammar
school. Citizens of Thomaaville, you
can not let this pass! Sonner
later this will have to be done. Why
not do It now and let your children
get the benefit of it?

Special Edition
Last year there was some talk about
getting out a special edition of the
High School News, but the failure to
secure enough advertisements for the
paper caused the inability to publish
This year, however, we hope for
better results. The paper will be about
the size of the Tlmes-Enterprlse. It
will contain pictures, cartoons and
everything needed to make It as good
as possible. From the present outlook
we get anywhere between a 500 and a
1,000 circulation. The special edition
will come out about the first of Feb
ruary. The staff will be the

At the end of the first half
was nothing to nothing, and
at the end of the third quarter the
score was the same except they had
the ball on our forty yard line.
Their big fullback was called
back. The ball was snapped, the
lines crashed together, the fullback
plunging through, kicking,
stemping, slugging. By our full, by
halfs. Suddenly I saw him
charging down on me. Cold perspira-

Talking about back of the times peo
ple. When I was visiting In Dunvllle,
Pennsylvania, last summer, the strang
est thing I ever heard of happened. I
saw the gray-uniformed postman com
ing and went to the door to get the
mall. Just as be reached the top step
I heard the reports of a gun and lead
began to spatter all around. I ran In.
“Don’t be alarmed," said my hoaL
“That’s old man Pnrker. He doesn’t
know that the war la over yet"
“War?"
“Yes. He thinks the postman la a
Confederate soldier."

back plunged through the line but
this time another knee met another
head. He got up kind of dazed and
some guy had to show him his place
in the backfield.
We held them four times on the
ten yard line. The ball went over and
punted out, I noticed that their
fullback, who had been sent to run the
punt back, could hardly judge the
ball, His face hat that blank ex.

sleep.
The punt was high and spiraling,
and he fumbled. In an instant he
turned and picked it up, and ran, but
he didn't turn. He was running to

Zack Vamedoe Injured
The only regretable Incident of the
Albany game was the broken arm re
ceived by Zack Varnedoe. "Bubber’
was getting into the game better every
week and looked good for the AH S. W.
G. team that will be picked after tbe
season Is over. Several of the Albany
players were Injured so that they will
not be able to get back in the game
ly more this year. They were all
good, clean, sportsmanlike crowd of
boys and it Is regretable to all of the
member* of the varsity that they
should have been Injured.
Basketball Season Nearly Hera
Football hearts are growing sad aa
the close of the season draws near.
The only consolation they have la that
basketball win start as soon aa the
football schedule is completed. The
High School has a wonderful chance to
cop the S. W. O. championship this
year. Some very good players,
were onjast year’s team, are back for
another try this year and under the
pble direction of Coach Rawson; who
jrai at on# time All Southern forward,
on tbe University of Georgia five,
many of the boys will be made into
better players. The girls, who bad
such a wonderful team last
working hard for their first game,
which will be played with Boston
December first: The girls have four
five teams out to practice every
day and are doing some good work.
All of last year’s team Is back. The
girls only lost one game last year to
amount to anything, and that
the hands of the Pavo team. Hazel
Burch has been elected captain of tbe
varsity team.
No Game Scheduled For Next Week
As yet as efforts of Mr. Brougton
have been of no avail to secure a game
{or the eleven next Friday. All of the
neglhboring towns have been tried, but
games can not be secured, probably
because T. H. 8. has such a strong
team this year. Efforts are being
!• to get a high school team from
of the larger cities, snch as Lanier
High In Macon. Savannah High,
Columbus, to come down Thanksgiving
l. Such a gam* would
only bring honor on the heads of the
locals, If they won, bnt would help out
the depleted treasury considerably. A
large amount of money has been spent
on football this year, and although the
schools is not In debt, the basketball
and baseball season* both wUl soon be
here and both call for a lot of money
to buy balls, uniforms, etc.
