GIRLS. The Girls� Basketball team had a good season, too. With Bess Drought as manager, a good schedule was arranged, and played off very well. Among the girls who participated in the games were Bess and Araline Drought, Marie Kepple, Myrna Reynolds, Thelma O�Neil, Margaret Alexander, Evah Loveland, Fern Blatchley and Lillian Murray. Then the Sophomore girls played the All-High School team in a close contest and defeated them. And in this connection it might be mentioned that the Junior boys challenged any of the other classes, and the Sophomores, the only other class to have a full quota of players, beat them in a close and interesting game.�

EXCHANGES. This issue ends the exchange department for the season of 1912-13. On the whole, we have been very successful. We have been aided greatly by the criticisms of other papers, and hope the attempt to better some of our exchanges has not been in vain. The exchange list has been increased from less than ten last year to more than forty this year. We have received papers from nearly every state and one from a foreign country. It is needless to say that these have been appreciated, judging from the number who read them in the library. We especially wish to thank the papers who willingly exchanged with us before our paper was put out in book form and exchanged regularly since. To all the papers with which we have exchanged at any time during the year, we wish to extend our appreciation of the courtesy and to extend an invitation to return next year.		T. N. E. CLUB. The organization of the T. N. E. Club was an inspiration. Ten fellows got together and said, �Let there be a club,� and a club there was. Later it was desired to limit the membership to C. H. S. men. They came together April 10, 1912 at the home of one of their members and a constitution and by-laws were drawn up. The first officers were Wesley McKinley, President; Glenn Paulson, Vice President; Harold Brown, Secretary and Treasurer. Then the club started auspiciously, especially in the financial line, having received a handsome gift from a friend. Soon after, plans were formed for a camping trip at Lake View, Chautauqua. This trip was a wonderful success. Swimming, fishing, canoeing and baseball were the sports mostly enjoyed. As might be expected all members returned dead broke, but happy. A trip of the same order is planned for this season. �Bud� Boudreau, �Bus� Brown, �Puddy� Beardsley, �Micky� Brooks, �Nutty� Dinsmoor, �Eb� Gretzler, �Wec� McKinney, �Pat� Patterson, �Nigger� Paulson, �Bob� Ream, �Whitey� Whitehead, �Wally� Young.

ATHLETICS

With the reorganization of the school in the Fall of 1912, came football enthusiasm. The school had not had a football team for two years, so it was decided to play inter-class games and not have a C. H. S. team until the following Fall. And so, many interclass battles were waged desperately on the school gridiron.

But soon football gave place to the basketball schedule arranged by Manager Bosworth. Captain Babbitt, assisted by Prof. Davie, our coach, had out door practice on the field for a couple of weeks before the indoor practice started. Then, when the team began practicing at the Armory, every man played a star game. And the team was then picked out. Babbitt, Jourdet, Paulson, Wellman, Scott and Mckinney.

The Thanksgiving night rolled around with Silver Creek as Corry�s opponent. Corry, in a fierce game, defeated Silver Creek and soon afterwards Kane and Masten Park of Buffalo shared Silver Creek�s fate. All the rest of the season the Corry boys played an excellent game under the circumstances, and while they began losing a few, still they ended the season very creditably. Jourdet, Corry�s star forward, was elected captain of next year�s team and awarded the silver cup for being the best player for C. H. S.

And then came baseball. Under Capt. Hill�s guidance, the team began practice and gradually the material assumed definite shape. But just when all looked well, trouble started. Now all the year in athletics it has been decreed by the authorities that a player to be eligible, must have a grade of at least 75 in three studies and deportment. But Babbitt and Jourdet had not the necessary qualifications for a game at Warren. Nor had permission yet been given to use Hopkins, a 9th grade player. So when Manager Carrier used these three men, there was trouble following, and finally the Board of Education decided that C. H. S. athletics were not recognized, and that there was no team officially representing Corry High School. So the team reorganized as the Crescent High Stars and it has proceeded to play as much of its schedule as possible.

Then when the City League was organized, the Crescent High Stars entered the League with eighteen players. The league is sure to be a success and the H. S. team ought to win. With good support and Hill and �Lefty� Wellman to do the twirling, the team certainly ought to win the cup offered by Mr. DeRosay to the best nine. So best wishes and all luck to the C. H. S. team � the Crescent High Stars.

N. I. T. CLUB.

The N. I. T. Club was organized August 4, 1910, with fourteen members. The object of the club is to have a good time and gossip and it is known that the latter, especially, is indulged in freely. The club is noted for the fine dances which it often holds and which are some of the most important events of the social season.

In the Hallowe�en parade of 1911, the girls received a beautiful silver cup for their float �The Damm Family�. This was presented to the High School by Miss Elizabeth Lyons and now adorns the case in the hall.

Last year the girls spent ten days in camp at Sherman�s Bay on Chautauqua Lake, and from all reports, an exceptionally good time was enjoyed. Miss McKinney and Miss Breene acted as chaperons.

The members of the club are: Cora Heywang,� Marion Carey, Emily Weaver, Dorothy Wilcox, Lucile Murray, Fannie Weiss, Helen Hoenes, Bess Drought, Elizabeth Lyons,�Esther Vaughan, Julia Naylor, Alta Young, Ava Mackres, Louise Whittlesey, Ruth Calkins.

M. P. CLUB.

The M. P. Club, commonly known as �Mush Party� is perhaps the youngest, though the most exclusive of any of the High School Clubs. The existence of this club first came to light this winter when a dance was given by them. Since then little has been heard of the club, and we would fear that it no longer existed if we did not see evidence of its existence every day.
