Gallagher, Chairman Clerk (Continued Next Week) (Crowded Out Last Week) Over The Backyard Fence — Betty has a very good reason for being proud of her necklace. Out side of the fact that it was given to her by Billy, it has a very nice inscription on it too. Spring is here or something. Anyway Coney Biglin and Ted can’t seem to stay away from each other very long at a time. Although Coney can’t dance quite so soon af ter her recent illness, she and Ted seem to have had a grand time Sunday night just watching. They make a very nice couple too, don’t you think ? Since the boys have come back from Lincoln, the girls all seem to be wearing new pieces of jewelry. Alma is wearing a cute bracelet with two golden hearts on it (one belongs to Duke) which he brought the Duchess. Lorene is wearing a pin that seems to mean quite a bit to her, seeing as how it is a present from Bob. All of the girls went around with long faces the latter part of last week. Ham had barely been gone two hours when Dottie began to feel the pangs of lonliness. This feeling was also shared by three other girls when their boy friends went to Lincoln for the tourna ment. We wonder why Marjorie Ann and Sweet Pea are so anxious for spring vacation. Of course the University of Nebraska has spring vacation later on this week, but that couldn’t possibly have any thing to do with it could it? Betty has been looking too hap py for words these past few days, and whenever we meet her she is humming, “Billy.” You don’t sup pose there could be anything per sonal in it do you, or do you? We wonder why Mary Ann was so eager to go home last week-end? I We imagine Jim might be the cause of her eagerness. Coney Golden went to Omaha this week, and although our gambl ing days are over, we will give 2-5 odds that she went by way of Col umbus to see Bud. Chickie Her and Junior Shoe maker were also at the dance and seemed to be enjoying themselves, but don’t they always when they are together? Congratulations to the O’Neill High basketball team. Even though you weren’t fortunate enough to win the tournament at Lincoln you made a gallant struggle and we know everyone is very proud of your splendid work. Special praise should go to Leo Valla, Bill Ryan and Gene McKenna for their grand work both at the tournament here and in Lincoln. Also congratulations to St. Mary's basketball team. You did not win the tournament, but you played good basketball and the most important thing of all you took your defeat gamely. Final congratulations should go to two other outstanding school or ganizations, the pep clubs of O’Neill High and St. Mary’s. Your cheers and songs at the tournament pro vided interest and your drills on the final night of the tournament were a joy to watch. You deserve a big hand for your participation in arousing interest in the tourna ment games. Mrs. John Protovinsky and Mrs. L. 0. Johnson expect to leave Fri day for Sioux Falls, South Dakota, where they will spend Easter vis iting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Claude Johnson. Henry Reimer returned Thurs day from Lincoln, where he is at tending the University of Nebras ka, to spend the spring vacation with his parents, Judge and Mrs. L. W. Reimer. Mrs (). W. French left Wednes day for Lincoln and expect to return today, bringing her son, Ivan and daughter, Leone and Hugh McKenna home to spend the spring vacation. The Woman’s Club will meet at the home of Mrs. Mark Crandall Wednesday, March 27, at 2:30 p. m. Mrs. Margaret Berkey, a returned missionary from Teinetani, China, will speak. All members are in vited. — .. - -LE—JL—,L~ 1. 1- L .. ■ LET THE RECORD DECIDE! This is the season when City Councils and County Boards have the responsibility of passing on yearly applications for beer licenses. It is the hope of the Nebraska Brewers and Beer ^ Distributors Committee that local authorities will scrutinize the record of each applicant, and will deny renewals to the few who have abused the priv lege of a license. Careful selection of licensees fosters better law ob servance, requiring a smaller expenditure for en forcement and allowing larger sums for welfare and school purposes.
