THE HI-LIFE
April 15, 1927
Published by the Sulphur Springs High School
The Hi-Life for April 19th will be called the "The Junior Edition." The Juniors will have full charge of the Hi-Life Office from today until the next paper is published. E. L. Kellogg has charge of this edition. The paper will be dedicated to the Juniors, so the Juniors will have come on out and support the class.
The carnival held by the Sophomore Class Thursday night at the High School was a huge success. The carnival stated at seven-thirty o’clock. The main attraction of the show was the Boxing Matches. In this show two matches were held. First bout Slaughterhouse Lee and Killer DeFord battled to a draw. The second bout also resulted in a draw, this time between One-Round Dial and Sledgehammer Payne. Considerable sums of money were taken in from the booths. In all $37.40 was taken in and after the payment of a few minor expenses, $27.40 was left as clear profit. This money was raised to pay our class picture fee. The remainder of the money will be put in the class treasury.
The Seniors are giving an Apron and Overall party in the gym tonight. The gym will be a regular playground with swings and the sweet music of the regular park. During the evening all-day suckers and cold drinks will be sold. A trip through the crazy house and view the "Rising Sun of America," the beautiful scenes of "Little Rock," And your fortune presented to you all in one evening. Refreshments will be served, so bring your 25 cents and join the fun of the year.
The many good friends of Raymond Geer (sic) in High School will regret to hear that he has been suffering severely with his crippled leg for the past week. His injury was sustained while playing football on the local high school team several years ago. He went to Dallas several days ago to see a specialist about it. He has returned and is able to be about again. It is hoped that he has been permanently benefitted.
In the Alumni column of the Hi-Life published a month ago, it was stated that Miss Alta Stevenson was working for the Kress Company in Wichita Falls. We have been advised that she is now working for a brokerage firm in that city and has never been connected with Kess. She is working as a book keeper and stenographer.
There was no opposition in the city school board election two weeks ago, and only thirty votes were polled. The same trustees were elected. They are: J. C. McDonald, C. W. Higgins, W. L. Bryson, and A. L. Alexander.
The Junior class carried the Junior play to Cumby last Friday night. About $20. was received from the presentation.
