SPORTS REVIEW
Milne's basketball season has just
recently been completed. All three of
the teams, both boys' and girls', com-
piled an excellent record.
Milne's baseball team is possessed
with the same potent spirit that the
other teams had. Every man has been ea-
gerly awaiting the coming season. This
group of boys to which the question is
of vital interest will represent the
school on the field. It is our duty to
support the team from the sidelines.
Cantt we capture some of their anxiety
to have games?
The manager with the help of the
captain and the coach has succeeded in
getting a collection of exvellent con-
tests for our team. Some of the teams
thet they will play are Altcmont,Rosel-
ville, Averill Park, Rensselaer, and
Troy Country Day Sghool. fPhis is only a
particl list of the games that they hope
to play.
Every boy in the school is eligible
to try out for any position. They wel-
come improvement in any department of
the game. Practice begins immediately
after vacation is over and the first
game will be played Saturday, May 4, at
10:30 o'clock in the morning. Their op-
ponent will be altamont High School.
Several places are open on the
teum, namely, shortstop, left field, and
the pitching staffs Last year's letter
men ure Ely, second base; MacHarg, first
base; Norvell, outfield; Rosenstein,
catcher; and Feldman, third base. Sub-
stitutes were Dawes and Colléns.
All the team hopes that we will
come out and make a good showing on the
part of the rest of the student body. iv
are sure that the team under the leader-
ship of Ceptain Bob Feldman and Coxe
"Johnnie" Cullen, Etete College sen
for, will make a good showing.

WHY EDITORIALS?
How many people in the senior high
school read the editorials in our paper?
We are afraid that very few of you do.
Are you among the number that reads the
jokes, scans the headlines, and throws
the paper away?
The question arises; Why read the
editorial, anyhow? We shall attempt t.
answer this question for you.
In the first place, the Crimson and
White is our paper, It is edited for oui
benerit by our own schoolmates. It pre-
sents for us the news in the séhool, co,-
ering it as completely and as clearly as
possible. There is, however, only one
place in a school paper where the stu-
dents may give their own opinion. That
place is in the editorial. It should bu
interesting to you to read editorici
discussions of school affairs if you
have any school spirit or pride. Editor.
iols may give you & new slant on school
problems of student government, sports,
or extra-curricular activithes.
Since Milne is temporarily
place of business, we shofild take
active interest in the "goings on"
seen by the editor. Cetuinly no one i+
better qualified to give an impartin.
view than the editor.
Why not, when your paper comes to
you on Fridcy, open it to the second
page and spend five minutes reading ar
editorial which presents a well thought-.
out idea or plane We are sure that you
will not regret it.
