Sim-e the Aggies had a championship football team and have a basketball team that is in the lead for a championship, many former high school stars enrolled in the Logan institution at midyear. The Aggies until un-til this year have been little regarded, as far as athletics was concerned, but I henceforth every effort possible will be put forth to put the A.

Last year a committee was appointed to look up some of the better higa i school players and everybody knows of the fjreat success the committee had in j getting the men here and of the many j things the school has done to treat the i men right after they did get them.
