Watts was a recent vis itor to Miss Fortna's and Miss Sher man's rooms, and Mr. Ernest Rich ards to Miss Wagner's room. Mr. Ernest Richards, Secretary of Education of Willamette University gave an interesting address to the pu pils of the High school last Tuesday afternoon. In his address he gave a valuable outline of the general courses offered at Willamette and the high aim of the school. A declamatory contest held in Miss Barnes' room last week resulted in the choosing of Velton Read., Olive Shick and Max Newson to represent the 3rd. and 4th grades at the local contest which will be held April 13th. in the high school auditorium. Miss Barnes' room received the greatest number of points for the Athena Press Honor Cup for the past month and although the cup now be longs permanently to Miss Wagner's room the pupils of the latter room have kindly agreed to let Miss Barnes' room have it for a period of three days. The Athena High baseball team will make its first appearance in new uniforms this afternoon, when they will meet either a local town team or the Helix School nine. This will be in the form of a practice game rather than a contest. The local team will be closely watched as to its ability since the loss of its last year's twirl ing staff. No reply has been made by the Indian Agency School team to a letter recently written to them and games with them are still uncertain. Coach Post has received official no tice from Walla Walla High to the effect that they will not be able to play Athena this season. Two games with Pendleton High are practically assured. The first to be played at Pendleton April 13th, and the return game here May 1. The contest here on May 1 will be a special attraction for the May day festival. No. pupils end of last mo.
