The home team showed mucn

improvement since their game with Eden, especially in better b;ocking and running. However, the pass defense has much yet to be achieved.

The Bulldogs threatened to scur,~ only twice during the game, Oll(!~ In the third quarter and once du;'­Ing the fourth. Both threats camr. during a passing deluge by tl.e Bulldogs, which the Jackets, as it seemed, could not stop until the \telvin team had passed its way to '.~'E'lI,. :thin the Jackets' 20·yard ine.

The Menard Chamber of ComM merce is making plans to supply the school band with its largen and most e:<pensi\"e instruments. the snare drum and two bass horns. These instruments, the ai­gregate cost of which will amount to some $500, will be given to tht. school; the drum will have an ap· propriate inscription on it.

Other civie and public spinted organizations, it is hoped, may finance the buying of at least a few of the other instruments need­ed for the forty or more-piec. band which Director Heb('l hopes to have well started within seven months after all members have ac­tually begun learning to play. The individual students who wish te beeome members of the band are urged to buy their own instru· ments il possible. Those bought by the various organizations will be for the use of worthy and musi­cally girted students who cannot have-tnstn:lmen~ o f t heir own.

Nineteen students have already secured or ordered as follow$.: Slide trombones, Bernard Temple_ ton, Norine Martin and Joe Alec Brownfield; cornets, Vena Bo~ Dyches, Macy Haygood, Shirley BUl"k, Fred Wilkinson, D. T. Car­michael, and Gloria Callan; saxo­phones, Marthann Thies and Ella Virginia Dodds; t rumpets, John Irving Landon and "Cappy" Reeve; clarinets, Frank Tillman and "Bet­to" Reeve: snare drums. Wesley Hayhurst and Hazel Wright, and bass horn, Clarence Jackson.
