Men Whoso Records Ar© Lacking In Clare County,
.- Allen, Eugene, Clare; Austin, Floyd
Alfred, Temple; Bersette, Ernest,
Continued on pace 4.
Upon the suggestion of the Board
of Education and agreement of the
senior class it has been determined
to combine the usual two night commencement exercises into a single
session this year. Tbere will therefore be no so-calied commencement
address, the baccalaureate sermon,
which is to be delivered tbis year b.v
Rev. Badgley, Pastor of the Congregational churcb, will to a certain extent fulfill botb functions.
Even before the fire the plan bad
been discussed of giving a senior
play this year as a change from the
usual list of class day parts. The
burning of the records with the
school building, bowever, practically
eliminated any choice in tbe matter;
as it is now impossible to determine
accurately wbo is valedictorian, etc
Tbe play selected is entitled "The
Manoeuvres of Jane" and is a royalty
production. It wae given by a selected group of Normal students at
Mt. Pleasant last year and was very
well received. Its only criticism
might be tbat it is rather difficult for
high school talent, this also being
tbe first dramatic appearance of a
number of tbe members of. tbe cast,
but the various members are taking
bold of their parts very mcely and
it is believed the production will
successful culmination of the
years' activities.

FLAG DAY PROCLAMATION
By The Governor.
Card of Thanks
Tbe observance of Flag Day is of
comparatively recent origin and seems
to have been begun in the State of
New York. The custom,, however,
has spread until practically every
state in the Union has adopted it.
Honoring tbe flag means to honor
the principles for .which tbe flag
stands, liberty, justice and equality.
These are the foundation stones ot
tbe Republic. So long as these great
principles are really respected and
honored in tbe hearts of tbe people (
our government is safe. Our free institutions will weather any storm
that may beat upon them.
Therefore, by virtue of the authority vested in me as Governor of the
State of Michigan, I hereby proclaim
Tuesday, June 14, 1921, Flag Day.
Let flags be displayed on both public and private bnildings; and I request tbat community exercises
appropriate to the day be held wbere-
ever practicable.
\ •- Alex J. Groesbeck,
.Governor.

CUre High Ball Team Wins
Tenth Victory. Score 9-13.
Last Friday, June 3, tbe ClarelHigt
Ball team won its tenth consecutive
victory in a loosely played game witb
Coleman High. It was a strong contrast to tbe tine game tbat tbe boye
played at Gladwin on Wednesday
when Hubel was given perfect support by his team mates. Duncan, one
of the sub pitchers, whose regular
position is second, pitched the first
four innings and did creditable work
for tbe first time in the box.
In [the fourth innings, however
tbe Coleman boys found him for six
hits, which with several errors accounted for five tallies. Hubel then
hits In the remaining innings, but the
support was not up to the average as
both sides indulged in numerous
eirors which resulted in the high
score. Oar boys aa usual did good
stick work and registered 15 bits ae
against eight by Coleman. Hubel,
Wilson, W. Doherty and
Stough accounted for most of the bits,
each securing three hits in five times
at bat, four of these, were two-base
smashes and three for tbe third sack.
The ball team was to play a return
game with Gladwin here on Friday

Men Whoso Records Ar© Lacking In Clare County, .- Allen, Eugene, Clare; Austin, Floyd Alfred, Temple; Bersette, Ernest, Continued on pace 4. Upon the suggestion of the Board of Education and agreement of the senior class it has been determined to combine the usual two night commencement exercises into a single session this year. Tbere will therefore be no so-calied commencement address, the baccalaureate sermon, which is to be delivered tbis year b.v Rev. Badgley, Pastor of the Congregational churcb, will to a certain extent fulfill botb functions. Even before the fire the plan bad been discussed of giving a senior play this year as a change from the usual list of class day parts. The burning of the records with the school building, bowever, practically eliminated any choice in tbe matter; as it is now impossible to determine accurately wbo is valedictorian, etc Tbe play selected is entitled "The Manoeuvres of Jane" and is a royalty production. It wae given by a selected group of Normal students at Mt. Pleasant last year and was very well received. Its only criticism might be tbat it is rather difficult for high school talent, this also being tbe first dramatic appearance of a number of tbe members of. tbe cast, but the various members are taking bold of their parts very mcely and it is believed the production will successful culmination of the years' activities.

Card of Thanks Tbe observance of Flag Day is of comparatively recent origin and seems to have been begun in the State of New York. The custom,, however, has spread until practically every state in the Union has adopted it. Honoring tbe flag means to honor the principles for .which tbe flag stands, liberty, justice and equality. These are the foundation stones ot tbe Republic. So long as these great principles are really respected and honored in tbe hearts of tbe people ( our government is safe. Our free institutions will weather any storm that may beat upon them. Therefore, by virtue of the authority vested in me as Governor of the State of Michigan, I hereby proclaim Tuesday, June 14, 1921, Flag Day. Let flags be displayed on both public and private bnildings; and I request tbat community exercises appropriate to the day be held wbere- ever practicable. \ •- Alex J. Groesbeck, .Governor.
