HIGH SCHOOL ITEMS
 NEWS OF STUDENTS

The outing of the Junior Conner cial class will be held at Beardsley park on the afternoon of June IA. Carl istics of the members of the class and Miss Tilly Johnson will give all the members advice. The Junior Commercial class song will be sung for the first time. A committee con- sisting of John Molloy, Rose Wishen- grad, and Loretta Harrington has been chosen to invite Principal Si- monds to attend the outing.
 Now that the weather is warmer it is very likely that fire-escape drill will be held for the girl students. A drill of this kind would both be en- joyed and instructive for the girl stu dents.
 School examinations will be held for the Seniors at the end of next week. Those for the underclassmen will not be held until week later.
 A very effective cover design for the Commencement Criterion has been drawn up. This will be turned out in the colors, gold and white, and very striking.
 Since the Senior Commercial class has but two boys the members of the class might use the boys of the Jun for Commercial class to choose char acteristics from. s
 Arrangements have all practically been completed for the exercises of Senic cf class day to be held next Fri day afternoon at the assembly hall of the school and for the Senior dance to be held in the evening at Siocum' S. 1n dov may make arrangements through the students of the class. I

 It is sweet music to the ears of the students to hear "Gus'' running over the grass with the lawn mower. The only thing missing is the mooing Of the 'sHigh School Cow" who for some reason or other has not been grazing in the neighboring lot as usual.
 Lately large numbers of the boy students have been seen walking ur and down Noble avenue afternoons, No reason has been given for this and very likely the matter will be looked into.

The nominees are Bron- son Davis, Jeremiah Murphy, Harold Lalley Frank Denny Edward Lynch Harland shannon and James Lucey. The students are more than usually inc terested / in next years board, for some radical changes are to be made, and will therefore look up the indi- viddal record of each nominee. Vot- ing for those whose names are the most familiar or those for whom one is told to vote for, will not bring a competent board The students are taking a more active interest in ath- letics and athletic elections this year than they ever did before
