Audience and Players
Delight In Zany Playoff
In Basketball Antics
It would be hard to decide who
had the most fun — the audience
or the players — in the big double
header between the Teachers and
the Parents, played last Friday
night at the School for the bene
fit of the School Band Festival. It
would be equally hard to deter -
~mine which team has the most
aches and pains today, as both the
Tottering Teachers and the
Petered Out Papas played with
all they had, and then some.
The final scores were 6-12, in
favor of the Mothers’ team, and
27-26 in favor of the male Teach
ers’ team.
A capacity crowd filled the gym
and the gate receipts all went
into the Festival Fund for the
Nome School Band, which contrib
uted peppy music throughout the
games.
The frivolous teachers were
gayly uniformed in multi-colored
balloon bloomers and dustcaps all
daintily trimmed in lace, while
the Mothers were in maternity
blouses.
A rousing cheer section was led
by Emma Cameron, Olaf Halvor
son, Helen Dunbar and Carolyn
Coons.
Mothers of band members con
tributed quantities of popped corn
which was sold during the
evening.
