“ To play hard, to give and demand g .square deal,
to-be :£aireven jn the-stressof contest,.to be courteous
always, to accept defeat .graciously,, -to win if possible
to do, so »fairly, and under all circumstances to be o
gentlem an.” T hat.is a sportman’s.code found in an
Old .Chemawa banquet program . Our .teams have al-
way s fried to beguid ed b y the precepts contained in it.
The conduct of Chemawa rqqters in ,the fmatter of
sportsmanship has also nearly always been above re­
proach. Hotyever, a good trait in an individual or
institution should be encouraged and so the subject of
the.second in the Success Habit weeks is Sportsman­
ship.”
Amongst other things a true sportsman does not
take an unfair advantage of an opponent.' For the
thoughtless it should be pointed out th at hooting, jeer­
ing miss-plays, or committing any act designed to make
a visiting athlete uncomfortable is not only taking an
unfair advantage of an opponent but is an act of rude­
ness toward a guest.
It should be remembered, also, that once the referee
has made his decision he cannot change it. ïf it
happens to be contrary to y o u r view of the matter all
the hoots in th e world can do no good, but, on the
contrary, will only advertise your rowdyism. A t best
the lot Of a referee is a hard one, as any of \our boys
Who have tried to perform th e task well know. Think
df this the nekt'tim e som ehard-working-arbiter makes
a mistake and tr y not to ^Obey tb at1 impulse. ”

body:
The first semester is over. Half a school year is
gone. We have had ample time to set ourselves for
school activities, tp get well acquainted with o u r in -
structors, our course of study ,,and the vocation we
have selected.
H ow many sftuderfts have y e t given themselves a

/Reorganization of The, vocatiotial trade departm ents
has made it possible for students entering the different
vocations to acquire a knowledge of his vocation if he

-most out of his opportunity. Have y ou made a .sincere
. effort to acquire this knowledge? .Areypu-just report­

something? Is-it a drudgery?
Are you-measuring up to *fhe,confidence the school

Have you lived up to the requirements? Did you come

C heckup,and see where you stan d ,in your own

At-games it .is essential th a t students conduct them selves
so the visiting’team s an:d officals'wili leave w i t h f e e li n g - t h a t

In order to help leave this impression students are asked to

A movie of the ‘‘Passion Play” was shown to our
students on last Saturday night. The picture was
filmed in Europe and-featured a cast of fine actors.
From every standpoint it-was aw onderful picture.
W inter is hereagain! .Much to our ^astonishment
,we awoke this morning ¿offnd the campus once more
blanketed w.ithrsnow. And just when/we were enter­
taining hopes for an early spring. Once more we
must .haul put the galoshes, snow shovels and mufflers
—and. dodge snow balls.
