SPORTSMANSHIP Sportsmanship! How many of us really know what this word means, and how many of us use it? Judging from the shouts and booing of the Tiger fans at ball games, not many Milford people know or use good sportsmanship. You students stu-dents of Milford High should know better than to boo or shout at the referees because they call a play you don't like. After all the talks we have had on good sportsmanship you would think that it would finally fin-ally become clear that we are trying to have good sportsmanship sportsman-ship between ourselves and other schools. It's not so much the students as it is the townspeople. towns-people. You townspeople just don't realize what a bad impression impres-sion your shouts and booing leave on our attendants. We are asking you people to please cooperate co-operate with us at our games from now on. If the referee i calls something you don't like or someone is playing a dirty game, let's keep our emotions to ourselves. You will realize how much more fun it is to watch the game and you will also notice no-tice the difference in the feel ings and playing of the boys if you cheer them instead of booing boo-ing at them all the time. This isn't a tough task we're asking you to do; as a matter of fact, it's really quite easy. Try it and see if you don't notice a ! difference!

But of course you don't get up yet. After all, what difference dif-ference will five minutes make. A half hour later you decide to get up. What time is it? Oh, don't worry, it's only 8:30. So you drag yourself out of bed and start searching for clothes. After Aft-er tearing the house apart you discover that you'll just have to press something. Finally you're dressed. Of course, you still have to eat. But that's no problem, prob-lem, all you have to do is gulp down a glass of milk and grab a piece of toast and finally you're on your way. Of course, you have to run half of the way. So you stick the toast in your mouth and take off on a merry trot. Just as you open the school door the last bell rings. So you have to go and get an excuse. Are you scared! So finally you're settled down for a nice quiet day in school. What's the matter? I don't see why on earth you should have a stomach ache! Don't worry, it'll go away. There goes the bell and there's a mad rush to the door but you manage to get through. By the time for third period you're practically starved but you manage to live through the class. When the bell rings you dash out the door, fall down the stairs and get trampled tram-pled to death in the hall. But aside from falling half way down the hill, everything is okay. After a hurried lunch you dash back to school just before the. bell rings Just before be-fore class starts you discover that you forgot all of your notebooks. note-books. Oh, well, it doesn't make much difference you d'dn't have any home work done anyway. So you drag through the day and by Sixth period you're so tired you almost al-most fall asleep. When you get home you're too tired to do any work so you just sit around until time for the show. Of course, by then you feel better. After you come home you go straight to bed. Of course you haven't done your homework, or got your clothes ready but that can wait until in the morning morn-ing you'll have plenty of time then.
