Both teams were undefeated in second half play until Sundays game. Diagerton started out in the lead by scoring a lone run in the first stanza but Kenilworth came back to score twice in the second. Successive home runs by Colley and Farlino in the fourth inning with nobody on erased this lead. The fifth inning spelled death for the locals as Kenilworth put a triple, a single, a walk and two Dragerton errors together to score 5 big runs. The locals came back in the seventh to tie the game up with four runs when Tobey walked, Byers singled and Colley sent Tobey across the plate when he lived on an error. Two more singles by Waite and Farlino scored Byers and Colley and a moment later Waite crossed the plate on a long fly ball by Nelson. This ended the scoring until the last of the tenth when Kenilworth pushed across the winning run. Both squads registered 11 hits but the locals inability to connect with runners, on the bases caused 13 to be lefL stranded.

ALL IN READINESS FOR OPENING OF DRAGERTON BIBLE SCHOOL CLOSED September 7. Numerous teams are expected and everyone is looking forward to a successful meet. Number 9 ; g INTERESTING PERSONALITIES m REUS FROM Sunnyside News Columbia News By Marion By Joan Mai a by and LaVae De Angeles Ruth Preston Approximately 850 children are expected to enroll in the Dragerton School. About 325 o these will be in the Junior High which includes grades 7 to 10 inclusive. Students from Dragerton, Sunnyside, Sunnydale and Columbia make up the Junior High while' only Dragerton children attend the Elementary Grkdes. Mr. Hansen reports that the faculty of 30 teachers is nearly complete and that no new classes will be added to this years curriculum. Most of this years instructors taught in the Dragerton School last year. EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES Mr. Hansen states they are looking forward to a full schedule of extra curricular activities They now have a full supply of good athletic equipment and good prospects returning for the football and basketball squads. A good band and chorus is also anticipated since both organizations stood out; in competition last year. School lunches will begin within a few days after school opens. Mrs. Tomsic will be in charge of this department and it is anticipated that" six women will be employed. Mr. Hansen also wishes to remind the student of the opper grades that Carbon High School and Carbon College wUl also hold their "reghiraUen on September 4. Teachers Institute win be held in Price ron September M FUND BASED ON ATTENDANCE Mr, Hansen wishes to make note of the fact that because of the change in requirements of the new school financing system enacted by the legislature-las- t January the income of the school is based on the average daily attendance of the students. Therefore, greater pressure will be used to keep children in school. Parents will be required to see that their children attend school regularly. Mr. Hansen feels this method of school financing is the most progressive in the U. S. today and feels it can be particularly helpful to the Dragerton School because of its large enrollment. He encourages the parents to cooperate in the matter of regular attendance. Reference Isrbrought to the fact that children who become 6 after October 31 of this year may not be registered in school. Mr. Hansen states the reason for this being that the state provides no funds for the education of children 5 years old and the Dragerton School is too crowded for space to take these extra children.
