Great sadness prevailed
at Rose Valley Dist # 40
My first grade in Dist
# 40, began in 1934. I loved school, most of all recess,
and lunch hour. A used broom handle, and dried hedge
apples made up our equipment list. We had great ball
games and enjoyed what we had.
Good times arrived
three years later and the parents put on a fund raiser
which netted $3.80. This sum and the Montgomery Ward
produced a new bat, ball, and basketball. Funds were
inadequate to supply basketball goals, but we drew a
circle in the dust at each end of the "court", and to
toss the ball to a teammate in the circle was a score.
Our joy was boundless until Harold Rowe fired a pass to
Bob Briscoe standing in the outhouse doorway. Bob
fumbled the pass and the ball bounced off the wall,
ceiling, floor, and sadly dropped thru a hole.
