REED CREEK SCHOOL Plans are being formulated toward the organization of a Parent Teacher Association at the Reed Creek school for the purpose of still further im proving the school and school work. Reed Creek has one of the best rural schools in Georgia but the citizens of the community are still anxious to continue to improve their school facilities. One of the best ways of making this improvement is by get ting the parents to come to the school house and learn something of the work being done by their chil dren. It is hoped that every parent in the school district will visit the classes in which their children attend at some time before school is out this spring. Musical and Minstrel Program Don’t forget the combined musical and minstrel program to be staged at the Reed Creek Auditorium on Satur day, March 7th, at 8:00 P. M. This is to be the largest and best enter tainment ever staged at Reed Creek. More than forty people will take part in the program. Arrange to get your tickets early as the space is limited and no doubt will be more than filled when curtain is raised. The pro ceeds will be used for school equip ment. Reed Creek Defeat Sardis The Reed Creek boys basketball team closed its schedule Friday night with a win over the strong Sardis team. The only other times that these teams have met during the season resulted in a tie. The score well indicates the comparative strength of the two teams. The game was very close and exciting. The Reed Creek boys found themselves the last half for a total of twelve points after they had been held dur ing the first half to one point by the strong Sardis team. The fighting spirit of the Reed Creek team is evidenced by the fact this and other games during the season was won in the last part of the game after it had apparently been lost during the early part of the game. The carry ing out of training rules by the boys has helped to win several games (lur ing the season besides helping to make cleaner athletes which is re sulting in better sportmanship and stronger boys. The boys have played ten games during the season averag ing one game per week. The team has gradually developed into one of the best in this section. The girls team also defeated the Sardis team by the score of 10 to 2. The girls team is composed almost entirely of small girls that should devolep into one of the strongest girls teams in this section of the state before they finish high school. o The poor man must go out and weather the storm, while the rich man can stay at home and storm at the weather. o London, with a slightly larger pop ulation but approximately the same area as New York, has nearly twice the number of police.
