There HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Interest in athlestics is now being aroused at Fayetteville public sschool. This is now the transitional period from baseball to basket ball. Espe cially at recess periods and dinner hours, one may see a group of excited boys trying their luck at “shooting goals,” quickly . passing the ball across the field, and shooting from the center. The play ground is a live spot while all this is going on, and the whole school takes note that the new season is here. Everyone is ful ly expected to be an enthusiastic fan or a really live star. The building is full and overflowing. To seat the Second and Third grades, which have fifty-seven students, it became neces sary to do some rearranging. When this method failed to solve the diffi culty, these two grades were com pelled to seek larger quarters, which were found in the room occupied by the Fourth and Fifth grades. There has also been some-rearranging in the Sixth and Seventh and Tenth and Eleventh grade rooms. Our friends need not accuse us of changing with the wind, for we do not, but we must confess that we do change with the rain and sun. We had a visitor Monday, Miss Elli son from Tyrone, who came to ob serve our methods. The Senior Class has organized it self. Officers have been elected, col ors adopted, the flokers chosen and samples of pins and pennants have been ordered.
