SCHOOL GROUNDS
During the recent wind and
snow storm, two of the trees
on the school grounds were brok­
en down.
The students of V.H.S. are in­
terested in the beautification of
the school grounds and are sor­
ry that this accident had to hap­
pen to mar its beauty.
The school grounds are nice
and every student should take
pride in trying to keep them
looking nice.
In order to keep the grounds
nice let’s be careful not to throw
waste paper around and walk
across the lawn.
BASKETBALL
The Vernonia high school hoop-
sters opened the season with a
decisive victory over Beaverton
high this year; but in the ensu­
ing games the Loggers’ constant
and strong efforts towards a win
were successfully met by oppon­
ents. However, the local boys are
to be commended for their fight­
ing spirit in ths face of opposi­
tion, and their three brilliant vic­
tories over the strong Rainier,
Beaverton and Forest Grove quin­
tets.
j
Holcomb and E. King did some
fine playing at their respective
positions of forward and guard.
Both hoopsters will be greatly
missed next season, for their
berths will be hard to fill when
they graduate this year.
Adams, our husky center, tal­
lied numerous valuable points for
Vernonia in many close games.
He also handled his pivot posi­
tion very well.
Condit and Henderson were in
the thick of the fray in every
game that they played. These
two hoopsters worried opposing
will be remembered by all who
learned to know him during his
Senior year at Vernonia.
