1t is not surprising that the funer-

4 Statement to the Public is Made
BY Head of School Faculty and
Foot Ball Captain.

A little difficulty has existed late

slight understanding between
The members of the foot ball team
: and the faculty in regard to the
standard OF class work for all stu
dents taking part in athletics. The
olnerehces of opinion, however, have
been small and have been almost no
thing as compared with the exagger-
ated reports that have been in cir
eulation. Everything has been set
tied satisfactorily to all concerned
and harmony again prevails. IL.
me following statement Is now
made because the taxpayers and pat
rons OF the schools have a right to
Know the status of affairs, and be-
cause the faculty and members of

true light before the public.
Inc standard of so per cent in
scholarship was established at Super
intendent Aliens suggestion for all
VINO take part In high school ath-
ietlcs. Mr.. Allen believed. when he
recommended this standard, that 1t
vas the standard in the leading
nish schools of Colorado. Recently
le mas found that 75 per cent is the
senerally accepted standard. Some
u ,lain 81 per cent, but do not really
i've up to that standard. For ex-
ample, one school requires 80 per
cent IN three studies only out of
iogr' Ihis often would mean a stand
sru OF 6O per cent, or below, on our
.asis, which includes an average in
,our subjects. Other schools regu-
.aiiy give second test to those who
ian IN examination to come up to the
,eyuired standard. A second test us
s saly means an easier test. 1t is
a.sahctiVely understood that no sec

IN view of these facts, some of
