to go on the tree planting trip,
according to Burt Boroughs.
The school bus will leave at

at least 5:30 p. m.
Services of volunteer workers
will be gladly accepted. Hot

A number or men from the

his prize elk which he recently shot in the Dixie Pass
area. Can’t you imagine the commotion when he dropped
this Monarch of the woods. In an interview he said:
“this was the biggest thrill I have ever had in all my
years of hunting. 1 could hardly believe my eyes when I
saw this beautiful elk. He was so big. I dropped him
with one shot.” Arey had a lot of fun showing this
huge six-point rack to his friends. The horns had a
spread of 36 inches high and 36 inches across. When
it was dressed out he had 438 pounds of locker meat.

fighting to a 20-19 lead early in
the fourth quarter .the Wolver

cause of a definite lack of block
ing. In the scoring column,
Larry Drake powered in for
San’iam’s first score and tallied
«m a pass play for the second.
Mike Gleason accounted for an
extra point. Then Ron Cannon
bucked in for the final tally
with Larry Drake adding the
final extra point.
Scoring for Gervais was too
much to enumerate. One back
scored four touchdown»—enough
to sink the Big Red single-
handedly. Enough sak*.
The disappointment accom-
panying this loss was felt by
all the loyal rooters who braved
the elements to watch the Wol
verines. The team just did not
play up to their potential ana
this, rather than the loss was
the cause for complaint.
