Weather Conditions.

The high pressure area over Mime
sofa and the upper Mississippi valley
yesterday morning has moved to the
middle Atlantic states, accompanied by
decidedly colder weather along the
whole Atlantic coast, with ten degrees
below reported this morning in northern
Vermont, zero at Boston, and 10 degrees
above at Washington. Following the
eastern movement Of the "high," and
due to the large "low' over Manitoba,
the temperatures in the central valley
region, upper and lower lake region,
Minnesota, the Dakotas and Manitoba
have risen considerably since yester-
day morning, while in Alberta and
western Saskatchewan they are falling
because of "high" north Of Wash
ington. Cloudy weather is reported in
the lake region, eastern Minnesota, and
in the Canadian northwest, with snow
falling at points on Lakes Superior and
Michigan, and eastern Washington.
Clear weather is general in the east
south and west. No precipitation is
anticipated in this vicinity from the
Manitoba "low' tonight OF Sunday.
but as it moves eastward there will be
a decided fall in temperature, which
will probably reach zero or lower on
Sunday.

of excitement early this morning.

had the presence Of mind to telephone
for the police. .s~s
Patrofman Griffith Of the Fifth pre-
cinct station was hurried to the place,
armed for desperate battle. His ar
mament, however, was light compared
with that of the fair students. Bear
ing chairs, pennant canes, books and
ink bottles, they were huddled in the
several rooms waiting for the bad man
to make the first move. At the sight
Of the policeman the girls become calm
and followed him in his careful search
thru the building. H..
From room to room they went and at
last found the one from which the orig
inal alarm had been given. In the mid;
die Of the room stood young girl
gasping for breath, her eyes dilated
with terror. The other girls gath cred

CENTRAL HIGH IS
VICTOR IN DEBATE

Central high won in Its debate with
South high last night and will now
represent the fifth congressional dis
trict in the state contest. The ques-
tion was the same as that debated in
the first round, Resolved, That all
elective state, county and district Of
fcers should be nominated by direct
primaries held under state control,
rather than by delegate conventions. !"
The contest was held in the South
high auditorium.
arguing against the arguments with
which they won in the North high de-
bate, the team put up a stiff defense
for the delegate convention. They
argued that the plurality nomination
of the primary system admitted more
manipulation and corruption than the
majority nomination of the delegate
convention. This proved to be the rock
upon which the South high arguments
came to grief. Just to clinch the mat
ter, the Central debaters called atten,
ton to the fact that Cushman K. Davis
Knute Nelson, s. R. Van SAINT and John
A. johnson, all men Of whom Mime.
sofa is proud, were the product of the
delegate convention.
The South high team held closely to
the case which they presented in theil
debate with East high and lost by do
ing SO. The plurality argument ad
| vanced by the negative played havoc
| with the bribery and corruption con
tentlon, which was their main argu
ment, and they fould it hard to gel
| around the fact that all the good mer
produced by this or any other state ha6
been placed in office thru the delegate
| convention.
The decision was unanimous in ia
vor of the Central team, which was
composed of Bessie Hull, Ruth Ridges
and Theodore Thompson. South higl
was represented by Virginia Slower
Title Will and Richard Groettum. The
next debate will be between Contra
high and Faribault high. The judge
were Rev. Charles Hubbard, pastor o.
Andrew Presbyterian church; DR.
| George B. Frankforter of the state uni
versity, and J. E. Ware, cashier Of tn
st. Anthony Falls bank.
! Some Of the Central supporters CLAIM
that theywere attacked afterthe debat
by party Of South Side sympathiz
ers, who were resentful because the de
cision had gone against their favorites
AS the Central boys were encumbere
by the girls they were escorting to tn
ear, they were unable to make any Ell
fectual reprizals. The South high boy
deny that any high school boys wer
involved in this attack or knew Of i
but lay the blame upon a gang of III
attached hoodlums, and say that ha
they known of the attack, which wa
not very serious, they would have IA
= lied to the support of the Central col
tingent. -
