musicals are indeed a fine thing
for the students. The whole course

place in Assembly hall Friday evening,
October 17th.

the football team and they in return have
confidence in the corps. If we are to have
a good team they must have our support.
Those yells which we practice every even
ing indicate that enthusiasm is running
high. Keep it up. Let our enthusiasm
