Fairfield Volley Ball Girls Win
The Fairfield girls scored their
second victory of the season when
they defeated the Currie sextet in
two straight gams in a match at
Currie last Thursday night.
The Fairfield lassies took an
early lead in the first game; however
a slump followed, but they revived in
time to win the first game 15 to 12.
In the second game the Currie net-
ters took the lead. This nettled the
spirit of the local team and they stag-
ed a comeback to take his second
game 15 to 13.
The girls playing for Fairfield
were: Gwens, Granberry, Ivy, Brown,
Gilbert, Watson and Condrey.
The Fairfield team, being a team
of beginners, is- as yet not a strong
team; however if the same attitude
and persistence prevail in the future
as they have since they started play-
ing, the time will come when they
really play the game.

four points each, while Newman made
Iwo.

The basket ball teams of Kirven
and Prairie Hill met last Saturday
in which Prairie Hill eked out i
four point victory. By far the out-

Kirven and Prairie Hill support their
teams. Teachers, pupils and town peo-
ple were there and heartily backing
health officers for this month. The
assistants are Ruby Newman, Annie much perseverance, and is a good
Faye McIlveen, W*nda^Wasson, Dir- player, and we feel sure that the

Fairfield Loses to Currie
The Fairfield basket ball quintet
played the Currie team on the lat-
ter’s court last Thursday night ahd
| were defeated 18 to 14. Both teams
| played a good game, although the
lights on the outdoor court were none
too good.
The Currie baskeeters soon ran up
a neat margin after the game started,
but the Eagles with that same old
spirit which has been exhibited in the
past fought hard and succeeded ni
tying the score about two minutes be-
fore the game ended. Two long
shots near the end of the game which
hit the meshes successfully gave the
Currie five a four-point victory.
The starting line-up for Fairfield
was: Guest, Eubank, Orand, Harding,
and Newman. Parker, Emmons and)
Blakeley saw service in this game
and acquitted themselves well for
tReir experience.

THE IMPROVED streamlining of the front end of the Ford V-8 for
1936 is well illustrated by this camera shot. Note the horn set into the
fender apron behind a chromium grille and the way the graceful con-
tour of the fender is carried to the edge of $he new radiator grille. A
glimpse of the new hood louvres is caught behind the headlamp. The
V-8 insignia on the prow of the car is of new design. i
A Good Shot
A man wounded in the head was
rushed to the hospital, where the
doctor asked him how it happened;
“My wife threw a stone and hit me,”
murmured the man.
“Well, that’s the first time I ever
heard of a woman hitting anything
she aimed at,” said the doctor.
