Because the area which the school serves is so widespread, it is -difficult for some girls to stay for practice, and for this reason they don't even try out for the team.

His discovery changed the course et world events. His name is deservedly honored in 1110torY. Columbus ventured into uncharted wimp, disregarding the advice; of supposedly 'learned mon, because h. had faith In God, faith in his own convictions, and faith in his capabilities as a navigator. His spirit was un- conquerable. He persevered In the face of over- whelming difficulties. It Is fitting that North America annually renders tribute to the memory of the famed Genoese explorer on the anniversary of this historic voyage. I hereby designate In accordance with this tradition, Sunday, October 21, 1979 as Columbus Day. 1 urge our citizens to observe this day In a manner that will dramatize and restate the fundamental principles of faith, wisdom and courage which guided the foot- steps of the Great Discoverer.
