McCRORY VS BRINKLEY
The girls’ basket ball team
of the McCrory High School
defeated the Brinkley High
School sextette on the local
court last Friday by a score
of 28 to 19. It was the first
game of the season for each
team, and despite the heavy
scoring the game was spec
tacular throughout the three
peroids of play. During the
first peroid the Brinkley team
seemed to have the odds all
in their favor, but after that
the local team rallied strongly
and kept the scoring about
even until the last peroid,
when they forged far ahead
of their opponents.
The McCrory teams are
scheduled to play at Wynne
next Friday December 5th.
This event will be novel in
that it will be probably the
first time in the history of
each school when both the
first and second teams have
been engaged in a contest
on the same day.

DRAMATIC CLUB
GIVES PLAY.
The staging of the first play
by the Dramatic Club of the
high school occurred last Fri
day immediately after the
basket ball game with Brink
ley. It was a short farce in
two acts entitled “A Perplex
ing Situation,” and all who
witnessed this attempt on the
part of the club were very
pleased with the presentation.
The visitors were very
much amused when told that
the admittance fee was five
cents. Even when they were
informed that the purpose of
having the plays is not to
make money but to offer the
boys and girls gainful recrea
tion and pleasure, they were
still unconvinced that the
price was anything but laugh
able. They are right, no
doubt, and the club may raise
its prices in the future.

THE COMMITTEE.
i
S. I. A. ENTERTAINS
The ladies of the S. I. A.
gave two delightful enter
tainments on the occasion of
Thanksgiving. The first came
in the afternoon, from 2 to 4
o’clock, and the guests were
the pupils from the first to
the seventh, inclusive. The
features of the entertainment
were the exciting games, en
joyed by everyone present,
and the final ‘‘spread” of
good things to eat, which was
more than enjoyed by every
one of the youthful guests.
Preceeding the spreading of
lunch, the highest point of the
enthusiasm of the afternoon
was reached when each guest
was required to “fish” for a
lunch, and no fisherman was
ever more in earnest than
were these young adepts.
The second entertainment
was given for the benefit of
pupils from the eighth to the
twelfth grades, inclusive, and
other young people of the
community. The main fea
ture of the evening was a se
ries of progressive games, all
of which pertained appro
priately to the harvest season,
and which everyone participat
ing very greatly enjoyed. Af
ter each couple had progress
ed from the last table, hot
chocolate was served to them
by a committee. They were
then invited to the lower floor
where intensely amusing
games kept them in an up
roar until the time came for
the awarding of the prizes to
the successful contestants,
which were won by Miss
Thelma Pugh, Miss Bess Pow
ell and Mr. J. W. Comer. Mr.
Comer received the “booby”
prize, which was an “all-day
sucker” dressed in the gar
ments of a doll.
Both these social events
took place at the school
building, and it may be noted
in passing that it is a wise
community that recognizes its
school building as a social
center for its young people
and older people, too, for
that matter.
