THE RIMROCK ECHO 5 Yellowjackets Meet Panthers On February 17 TEAM FINISHES TOUR; Psych Class Gives PLAYS INTERMOUNTAIN, Mental Tests To CARROLL, MINES, DILLON 42 Billings Pupils As part of their quarter's work, members of the class in Psycholog- ical Testing are giving mental tests to the public school children who have speech defects. About 42 pu- pils have been tested and about this number remain on the list. There is a possibility that a few children from the Fratt Memorial School will also be sent in to Dr. Hines for testing. If time allows, other pupils of doubtful intelligence quotients but without speech de- fects will be tested. Fourteen members in the class are giving the tests. They are: Margaret Baker, Grace Cain, Max- ine Ellithorpe, Mary Herak, Ruth Korber, Norman Larson, Horace McBride, Ruth Oie, Clem Owens, George Richardson, Bernice Rob- erts, Don Steele, Gladys Stafford, and Emma Vanek. SILLY THINGS Silly things that make me happy; Silly things that make me sad. (Perhaps the things I frown on Are silly things, not bad. Silly things? Yes, maybe so. The things that make me sing— A loving letter from my sister; Sunset; a bluebird's wing— A darting dash of color Across the clear blue sky; A poem, perhaps; a snatch of song; The smell of chocolate pie. An \A\ test grade; successful day Filled with student teaching— Children's lessons all learned well, No coaxing, scolding, preaching. And then the things I'm tired of— The silly things I hate— That homesick feeling in my heart Ashes in the grate. Some people who have tempers Quite as bad as mine; Such awful early classes! (Why can't they be at nine?) Yes, truly are they silly things When written black on white; But it's fun to be silly if Such things make up Life! FOOTE ADDRESSES P. T. A. Mr. Foote addressed the P. T.

The final score was 61 to 35. The Dillon Bulldogs were playing the best ball they have played this season, and Bjorgum's quintet was unable to find the hoop.

LOSES TO MINES BY CLOSE SCORE OF 35-33 Monday, February 6, the Yellow- jacket team of E. M. N. S., com- prised of eight of the most promis- ing basketeers, launched an eight- day tour to compete with four col- lege teams of the state. The follow- oing men were chosen: Galahan, Von Eschen, Johnson, Owens, for- wards; Swanson, center; Stevens, Jones, and Larson, guards. The first game of the series was fought out with the Panther team on the night of February 7, on the Intermountain Union floor at Hel- ena. The Panthers were in peak form, controlling the tip-off, shoot- ing with deadly accuracy, and de- fending their goal with unusual skill. Accustomed as the Yellow- Jackets were to playing on their small floor at home, the large floor at Helena proved a serious handi- cap. It was not until late in the first half when Galahan, forward, entered the game that the Yellow- Jackets were able to get their of- fensive rolling. Galahan contrib- uted 15 points to the E. M. N. S. score while Lyman, Intermountain center, scored 23 points. The game ended with a score of 55-30 in favor of Intermountain. The second game of the series was played with Carroll College at Helena on February 8. It was a fast game and it was only through the Saints' familiarity with their home floor that they were able to turn back the determined E. M. N. S. five and ring up the final score of 46-39 in favor of the Saints. The Carroll College Saints, at- tempting to rest on a 33-16 lead which they piled up during the first half, saw the E. M. N. S. Yellow- Jackets boost their score to 28 while the Saints were gathering a single basket. Three field goals by the Saints near the end of the game saved Carroll's scalp. Swanson, cen- ter, and Galahan, forward, carried the brunt of the E. M. N. S. attack. Thursday night, February 9, the Yellow-Jackets invaded the Mines floor at Butte for a return game, and were defeated by a score of 35- 33. Too big an early advantage almost proved the undoing of the Miners. They rushed into an early 13-3 lead and at the end of the first half had piled the score to 27-11. After going on to a 31-14 lead in the early part of the second half, the Ore-diggers collapsed and the Normal put on a 14-point spurt and nosed up a 28-33 score. Galahan made a long shot, and Johnson tossed in a sleeper fifteen seconds before the end of the game. Walsh led the Miners with 10 points. Swanson and Galahan, of E. M. N. S., each scored 9 points. Friday evening, February 11, the Dillon Teachers easily conquered the Billings aggregation in a one-
