She South Shore Yacht Club played ard fought tennis match with the Glen Cove Yacht Club on Sunday, October 5. Glen Cove sent a picked team to match their prowess against our own club, and the competing teams were so evenly matched that we con¬ test resulted in a draw, each team winning one doubles and one aigles. The match was played on the splen¬ did courts of the South Shore Yacht I Club which were in good condition de- j spite the  rain of the preceding two

could be used by the grammar grades which are crowded and could be great¬ ly benefitted by the extra room. The new high school should have a gym¬ nasium for the use of ^e pupils, be¬ cause the only one there is, at pres¬ ent, is in the Columbus Avenue School and thtit isia'Dt as large as it ought to be.
Another way our village could be improved is the building of better roads. Many of the Freeport streets are all holes, bumps and mud. While a great deal of good has already been done in this matter, there yet remains much to be done. Some streets also ought to have more lights on them. Work along that line is also being done.
The one thing, however, which would do Freeport the most good would be a community house of some sort. This building could contain a library, a large hall where meetings could be held, and places to go to, this would keep many of the younger population off the streets and great¬ ly raise the morale of the community.
If these things I have mentioned were done, 1 think Freeport would be a much better community and offer even more attractions to newcomers than it does now, and that is saying a great deal.
LAURA AULT. (Freshman)
Most of these items refer to the condition of our roads. It would have been a good point to bring out in the discussion in the class the fact of the impossibility of getting Peekskill grav¬ el during the war, and the handicap under which our Village Board thru its Street Commissioner worked in getting the roads in the good condi¬ tion that so many of them are at the present time.—Editor.

Instead of sixty subscriptions, as was stated last week, there were one hundred and thirty handed in for the "Student.'.'    Quite a difference.
