What a football team Med
ford wouldn't have a chance.
The "Powder-Puff Eleven" got
under way last Thursday after
noon and had a good scrimmage
before the student body. They

They were fighting hard on
their opponent'a one-foot line
with one minute to go, when
suddenly the whistle blew and
the manager dashed onto the
field with a tray of tea. The
game was over, and the G. A. A,
girls tripped daintily off the
stage singing "Our coach will
mako us strong," amid loud
"heers of a revived student
body.
7 per cent of the grades were
l's; 36 per cent. 2's; 37 per
cent, 3's; 14 per cent. 4's; and
per cent, S's.
