FIELD DAY A SUCCESS
MANY PUPILS TAKE PART
IN FRANKLIN SCHOOL GAMES
King Dickinson's Junior Feature
Intercollegiate School Children
and Parents.
Students in the Franklin Elementary School yesterday in their first annual dual field day on the school grounds, in Swansboro. This was the first held day to be held by any school in the city this year.
Practically all of the pupils in the school, which has nearly 800, took part in the events. The meet was made highly interesting by the spirit shown by the teachers in the school and the parents of the children. A number of the mothers and fathers of the pupils were present, and all seemed to enjoy the occasion.
One of the feature events of the day was the flag display given by all of the entrants. The children marched in a body from the school building and were led by two pupils, who bore the American flag. "America" was sung, with the flags were waved in the air. Mothers, fathers, teachers, and pupils all joined in the singing of the firemen's anthem.
The first meet held by the Franklin School pupils yesterday proved to be a success and was gratifying to the officials in.  Charles L. Tucker, director of physical education in the public schools, was highly pleased at the showing made by the pupils in the first meeting. Director Jones was particularly pleased with the interest that the teachers in the school showed in the event. Miss Vadon, the school principal, also took a great deal of interest in the event, and greatly aided the pupils and teachers.
