High School Happenings

The basket ball meeting to have been
held Saturday to arrange a basket
ball schedule, was postponed until to-
morrow friday. The Dalles high
)scbol has no place to play, unless they
get gymnasium appropriation, so were
not ready to draft schedule. A mes
age was sent to The Dalles school by a
committee of II. K. II. s. students
urging them to work hard for their
gymnasium and wishing them luck.
The party given TO the seniors by
the freshmen class was a very lively
affair. A group of sophomOres, who
were holding party nearby, invaded
the high school about 10 p, m., but did
not linger long. At late nour re-
freshments, consisting of sandwiches,
pickles, waters and punch were served.
This was a return for the party given
the freshman class by the senior class.
Three students have entered school
the past week. They are Miss Dorcas
Dewitt, Floyd Berry and Joseph Win
chell. Jesse Thomas will return at the
beginning of the second semester.
Bun Lewis, a former student of H.
R.. H. S. who is attending O. A. c.,
and is playing foot ball on the scrub
team at that place. got his leg broken
in a scrimmage with the Varsity team
several weeks ago. He is now able to
hobble around again.
The junior class gave a kitchen
shower to Prof. Burton last Monday,
in view of his approaching marriage.
When Mr.. Burton returned to school at
noon he found his desk loaded with
kitchenware of every kind from mice
traps to soap and wash board. The
senior class levied small tax per cap
ita and purchased butter knife and
sugar shell, which they sent to the
bride elect.
The senior class is selling tickets to
the musicale given by the Chautauqua
association. The students get 10 per
cent of the money they take in. The
money will probably be added to the
gymnasium furnishing fund.
The manual training department is
working over time now. There are two
classes taking manaul training which
get one credit for the years work and
several one-half credit classes. One
class takes up at IL. Is a. m. and lets
out at 1890. The other enc credit
class takes up at 2:45 p. m. and lets
out at q. u. of o., o. A C. and u. OF
W. each recognize this credit.
The high school will turn out en-
masse to the game today. The past
performances of the foot ball team
have been with the large score in the
keeping of the opposite team. Capt.
Coshow and Manager Mcclure have
made renewed excuses for the team
and the players are again back in a
boosting frame of mind.
Virgil Jones gave party last Friday
night at the home of his parents, Mr..
and Mrs. Burns Jones, to sextette OF

played till about 10 p. m, at which
time they went over to the high school
