Outdoor baseball team ot Lamar school winners for three oonsecnttre years of the Spalding trophy. The
team won erery game played during the tournament
Onf of the especially pretty exercise
with which the ward school ot Houston
doMd the recently ended spring Meaton
was a sUyfest held on the Lunar school
campus last week. Race and outdoor
jramea occupied a larf part ot the pro-
gram while the central number was a
Kay pole dance and the crowning of the
May queen.
The queen was Miss Madeline Jacob
the smll daughter ot Mr. and Mrs. R.
' L. Jacob. In addition to NO children
present either a participant or specta-
tors a large number ot the parent and
older friends of the pupils attended.
Thl occasion afforded an opportunity
for the people of the Lamar school dis-
trict to inspect the excellent fadlitiea in
the way of well kept grounds and modern
sjteel play apparatus at that school for
healthful scientific outdoor exercise for
th pupils.
It wa recalled that several years ago.
before then? had been any general agt-
tation for public playgrounds and super-
vised play in Houston the Lamar School
Mothers club placed Itself upon record a
faTorinic the use of the school grounds
by children after school hours. The
members of the club insisted so tena-
clous ly upon this point that the city ac-
Okded to their wishes.
The mothers emphasised their sincex-
iity by being the first In Houston to pur-
chase and install a steel playground ap-
paratus on the Lamar school ground.
1 The apparatus Is now admitted to be
the best on any of the city ward school
grounds.
Later the club became the first In
Houston and is perhaps the only one
that maintain a playground supervisor at
the school grounds every afternoon of the
week. Including Saturday and Sunday
Ijyyifhout the summer vacation month.
Co-operaCon between Ce member of
tli faculty of the school particularly on
the part of Miss Nona Amerman the
principal' has had much to do with the
oecea of the work of the parents or-
E miration. The equipment comprising
test type steel apparatus for both the
boys and the girls. Is always In demand
at recess periods and after school and has
contributed great deal towards clear-
ing the street and ship channel banks
of children who formerly found those
places piratically their only recreation
resorts. The playground has been in
charge during the past session of Miss
Derm B. Lantrlp. She has proven an
efficient factor in the developsxent of
the school grounds a a thoroughly pop-
ular recreation center for the neighbor-
hood not only for the people of school
age but for many older people a welL
The entire Lamar school community. Is
tk claimed has felt the beneficial in-
fluence of this factor of social center
work.
To be good losers and even to be good
winners the recognised criterion of
aaanlinea and the American sporting
spirit la taught more thoroughly under
the supervised playground system in the
opinion of those who have made the mat-
ter a study than in any other way.
Some of the results of the playground
system at the Lamar school are reflect-
ed in the excellent work that has been
done by the school athletic teams in the
Interward school contests.
The CO-lnch boys soccer football team
ha won the championship for three con
