High School Notes: -- The Senior boys recently organized a club for the encouragement of the minor sports of boxing and wrestling. They purchased a new set of gloves and have practiced at every moment since. All of the boys live in the country and owing to this fact they have been granted permission to use the gynmasium at noon. The sport is quite popular with the senior boys and other boys in the high school and they may purchase gloves soon.
