The Fort Dodge Messenger: Sept. 28, 1906

All Students Eligible

High Schools Students Will Not be Barred From Athletics.

According to a section of the Principal’s Rules under which the Fort Dodge High School plays, all those, who are not up in three studies in the currliculum (sic) of the school, shall be barred from participating in athletic events. Principal Thomas said yesterday that this will not effect any of the students this quarter but that unless  those who wish to enter athletics have passed in at least three studies, they will not be allowed to represent the school next quarter. There are many of the members of the school who are thinking of entering for the basket ball team which is talked of as a possibility. There are many good players in this game and Fort Dodge could have a strong team.
