Consolidation of small schools and
transportation to other districts is
being prepared for introduction to the
state legislature. Another fixes the
minimum school year at nine months.
A third takes away from property
holders the exclusive right to -vote
school money, and makes the* qualifications the same as for any other
elector. More, rigid requirements for
prospective teachers is the fourth
bill. The preparation of the bills
has been the work of. the State
Teachers' association.

Your income tax for 1920 helps to defray part of it.
During  The Past  WeeV
Bojfch teams seem to have hit their
stride at last, winning nve games in
a row, and are ,not particular who
they heat. .   ■„
Last Tuesday the Orange and
Black defeated Chelsea at Chelsea,
32 to 21, and last Thursday night
the Green and White defeated the
game team -here, while the Orange
and Black"Uefeated the strong Milan
team, the one which gave our bo^s
such a drubbing at Milan a; few weeks
ago. JWalter Cook starred for the
Orange and Black, getting 24 of the
SB- points scored. ^ He. was shooting
them from all angles. But the hoys
are not yet satisfied with their playing and; have engaged E. D. Mitchell,
former XT. of M. coach, to drill them
points of the game. Ha took charge
of the teams Monday night, and gave
,them a two-hour blackboard talk,
explaining new plays    and different
talk were tried out on the floor.
The .hoys took a great deal of interest in them and put forth their best
efforts to carry the plays through.
The boys will understand some of
the plays enough by next Monday
night to use them against Ypsilanti
and 'Tecumseh, so look out for some
bigger scores, also better basket
ball.
On Friday night this week both
teams go to Britton to play the Independent teanHs of that town- They
will leave about 6:00 p. m- All those
who can make the trip are kindly
asked by the boys to come along;
"the bigger the crowd the better."
Next Monday ^ night wilj see the
Green and Wlhite in action against
the Business Men's team of Ypsilanti
and the Orange and Black against
the Tecumseh Independents, here,
at the usual hour. Following is the
