B. (Continued from Page 1) tain of the \A\ team. The scores made in this game were quite di- vided among the players. The line- up of these teams was as follows: Seniors—Geise, f; Fatur, f; La- Munyon, c; Lofgrin, g; Briesie, g; Olson, g; L. Olson, f; Stewart, f; Page, f; Swanson, g. \A's\—Fleming, f; Stoker, f; Kudzia, c; Van Du Snyct, g; Hil- derman, g; Anderson, g; Perso, f; Krone, f; Trickner, g; Myron, g. A's Take B's The third game, played between the \A's\ and \B's resulted in a low score for both sides, namely 8-5 in favor of the \A's.\ The next game resulted in a very one-sided score in the \C's\ favor which was 23-8. There was some very good guarding, enough to keep the \C's\ from finding the basket. The next two games, the first between the \C's\ and \A's with a score of 21- 18 in the \C's\ favor and the sec- ond between the \B's\ and the Sen- iors in the latter's favor with a score of 14-18, were both hard fought. There was quite a little audience who seemed to enjoy watching the fast playing. Mr. Bjorgum refereed the games, while Miss Stevenson and Clyde Carring- ton were time-keepers. A'S AND C'S BRING HOME THE LAURELS On Saturday afternoon, the A team of the E. M. N. S. defeated the Poly girls in the Rimrock gym with a score of 16-20. Though the game was somewhat rough it was fast and was charac- terized by accurate shooting by the normal girls. The lineup of the A team was as follows: Stokker, forward; Kudzea, forward; Perso, forward; B. Hilder- man, guard; H. Hilderman, guard; J. Hilderman, guard. This game was brought to a con- clusion the first season of girls' basketball. Four games were played, the opponents being the high school girls and a team from the Poly. C's Beat Poly The first game played against the Poly on Saturday afternoon, Febru- ary 17, also on the Rimrock floor, was won by the C team with an overwhelming score of 45 to 21. Arlene Janke was high scorer. It was reported as a good game. The lineup was as follows: Stella Price, center; Lotta Nelson, for- ward; Arlene Janke, forward; El- len Dorothy Olson, guard; Maria Hansen, guard; Doris Corwin, guard. The first game was played against the high school in the normal school gym on Saturday afternoon, Febru- ary 10. The C team won with a score of 27-16. C's vs. H. S. The second game played against the same team at the high school gym on Saturday afternoon, Febru- ary 24 was also won by the score of 21 to 17. The B girls had little chance for outside games but the intensive training of the last two weeks gave them entrance in the all school tournament. The senior girls, with a hastily organized team, also en- tered the tournament last Saturday. Edith Allport, '32, was accepted into the Delta Phi Delta Honor So- ciety at Bozeman because of her outstanding work in art. Dave Duncan, '33, a student at the State University, was chosen to play the part of the tavern keeper in the spring play \The Tavern,\ by George Cohan. This play is to be given the fifth week of the spring term. Grace Cain, who is teaching at Geraldine, Montana, wrote to Miss Meek, thanking her for the plays which were sent her. She said that Friday evening, March 2, her pu- pils presented the operetta \Bon Voyage\ and in addition gave some tap dancing. The performance was a real success, which was enjoyed by an audience of four hundred. The door receipts were about one hundred and thirty dollars. Al Frasier, '33, who is teaching 20 miles south of Rosebud, is hav- ing a most interesting time with his school. He has been teaching the girls to cook, and the girls are now cooking the noonday meals. They are able to prepare several dishes without any assistance. A number of former E. M. N. S. students were in Billings over the week-end of March 3-4. Some of those who were seen are: Marga- ret McConnachie, Virginia Conway, Genevieve Spurgin, Naomi Luokett, Mona Houck and Lorene Kirch. HAVE YOU SEEN OUR MEN WORK There is much activity at the site of the E. M. N. S. Athletic field at the end of North 27th Street. Since January a crew of C. W. A. workers has been doing the rough work on the grounds, cutting the surface into three levels to con- form to the slope of the ground. At present a crew of E. M. N. S. boys employed from our fund for needy students is making tennis courts on the two lower levels, lev- eling them off and putting a drain through the center of each level. About ten dirt courts will be ready for use when the season opens. Besides this work the boys will construct a dugout to be used as a tool house. The top level has much more surface. It provides for an amphitheatre, a running track and a football field. We suggest that students take a hike to the field to watch the boys work. CHILDREN ENJOY SIMBA The maximum of enjoyment was extracted from the Martin Johnson African film \Simba.\ Besides pre- senting it before 1500 students and citizens at the Fox, Mr. Stuber and his Kiwanis committee took it to St. Vincent's Hospital Monday night. There in the large orthopedic ward, it was shown to many nurses and about 20 crippled chidlren who were not well enough to be taken to the theater. Genevieve Spurgeon, August '33, and Horace McBride, June '33, spent the week-end of March 9-11 in Billings. GRAD ROOTS FOR TEAM Mrs. Martha Fitchner Boyd, De- cember '31, has been in town over the week-end March 9-11. And is she proud! Lodge Grass won sec- ond place in the Class B Tourna- ment. Mr. Chas. Boyd is coach of the Lodge Grass basketball team, which has won great favor in the Class B tournament sponsored by the Billings High School. This team showed very unusual ability and is a very unique quintet. The mem- bers of the team are: Woodrow Pretty-On-Top and Arlis White- Man, two Indians, and Clarence, Donald, and Walter Mahler, who are triplets, and Douglas Waddle. Clarence and Walter Mahler are identical, and to make matters worse both wear goggles in the games. E. M. N. S. PUTS OUT NORTHERN LIGHTS (Continued from Page 1) out the game. The normal squad was strengthened by the work of Nelson and Gallahan, who were re- cently declared eligible to partici- pate in the rest of the home games. The first ended with the score standing, E. M. N. S. 17, Havre 7. Havre staged a slight comeback in the second half, but were unable to keep pace with the Yellowjack- ets who were determined that their chance at victory should not slip out of their hands. The final score was Normal 31, Havre 22. Captain Stevens of the Yellow- jackets was high point man, having a total of 9 points. Nelson and Gallahan ran a close second, each having 8 points. Hovee and Purdy starred for the Lights, each having 5 points. E. M. N. S. vs. Intermountain The Intermountain Panthers of Helena succeeded in defeating the Yellowjackets for the second time this season in a cage contest at the High School gym, February 23. The Panthers, led by Brandjord, took advantage of the Jackets' off- night, and gradually stacked up the points to close the half period with the score standing, Intermountain 19, E. M. N. S. 11. The Yellowjackets matched their opponents in scoring ability the second half, but were too far be- hind to cover the lead established by the Panthers in the previous period, the game ending with the score, Intermountain 39, E. M. N. S. 30. Captain Stevens of the Yellow- jackets led the score card with a total of 14 points. Brandjord led the Panthers with a total of 11 points. Do you have a scream of a pic- ture showing your friends (or your enemies)? If so, hand it to any member of the staff. When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.— Roosevelt. Attention Students Fees for the spring quarter must be paid not later than noon Thursday, March 22. Failure to pay fees or to make satisfactory arrangements for the deferment will be cause for exclusion from classes after the date for final payment. The present arrangement re- garding fees makes it necessary that fees be paid IN ADVANCE IN FULL. The general econom- ic situation in the past few years has caused us to permit certain reasonable short time exten- sions. This policy, however, has permitted certain abuses to arise which can no longer continue. In no case in the future can the payment of fees be allowed to extend beyond the END OF THE FIRST MONTH of the quarter. This notice is given at this date so that students now enrolled will have plenty of time to make financial arrange- ments which will enable them to enroll for the next quarter.

'1 tie plays which have been given for public were very well received in all places. Besides being good practical experience for the partici- pants, they tend to make for better entertainment for rural P. T. A. meetings. Miss Cleo Wright, August '33, was a visitor in the Education of- fice last week. Miss Wright taught a school near Ekalaka until Christ- mas. Since then she has been very ill with pneumonia, having been confined to her bed and her home near Laurel till the first of March. She is slowly recovering, but will be unable to continue her work this school term.
