HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

presented an excellent program.
The program opened with piano
selection by Walter Frenzel which
was greatly appreciated. 1t was
| followed by vocal solo by
Leona Ruder, accompanied on the
piano by Miss Roeser, which was ex
cellent. An interesting debate or
the question, "ReSolved that the term
of the president should be six years
was then held. The speakers for the
affirmative we're: Archie Anderson
Elvira Balassa, Harvey HOgen; the
| speakers for the negative were
Gretchen Paff, Carl Matchmaker and
Chester Hartlett. The decision OF
the judges was two to one in favor of
the negative. The debate was fol
lowed by a charming defamation by
| Lucille Lehrbas Lack of time pre-
vented the society from having the
customary impromptu debate on some
light and amusing subject. The
society gained large increase
in membership. 1t will hereafter
hold its programs and meetings in
the assembly hall every other Friday,
alternating with the lyceum program.
Two of the regular high school
choruses have decided on names.
Both have adopted Greek titles. The
B chorus which meets on Monday,
has chosen the name "Orphean'' in
honor of Orpheus, who could make
trees weep and rocks dance with his
Tyre. The A chorus which meets on
Tuesday has been named the ENTER
pean," after Enterpe, the chief of the
nine Muses., who presided over lyric
poetry and music.
Miss Margaret Lee, rs, who is at
tending Oshkosh Normal and who
came up to attend the wedding Of
Miss Elizabeth Plantz, was a high
school visitor Friday
Report cards came out this noon.
No doubt, Samuel Stockum is happy.
Monday marked the beginning Of the
second six weeks and students began
their work with the usual good in
tentions and resolutions.
Charles Pond who attends Lawrence
College, and Charles Thrasher, a
student of BelOit, were home for the
weekend.
Miss Bussard is prejudiced against
gum chewing. Therefore all Yucca
tan champions, Spearmint artists and
Sen-Sen heroes are punished with
nice little zero when caught in the
act in her classes. 1t is is said that
Miss Bussard is planning an official
public gum bulletin something on the
order of a checker board, on which all
students afflicted with the gum habit
may stick their gum when they enter,
write their name under it and reclaim
it again when they leave class. This
system would be great boon to gum
chewing students.
In a clean and interesting game,
witnessed by an enthusiastic crowd,
the Wausau eleven won an easy vic
tory over the TomahaWk team last
Saturday afternoon, with score of
81 to 6. Taugher, Neuquette and
Hartlett were the stars for the home
team and Miller played fine game
for TOmahaWk. The game started by
TomahBwk kicking off to Wausau.
Then Taugher carried the ball to
the center of the field. Wausau lost
the ball on a failure to make their
gain of 10 yards. Tomahawk lost the
ball to Wausau on the same failure.
Again Wausau lost the ball and again
TOmahawk lost it. But the third
time the red and white carried the
ball through the TOmahawk line
and over the goal line. This goal
was made on the third down with
goal to make distance of about
yds. The Wausan highs then brought
the ball out to kick a goal and were
about to kick when Mr. Tobey inter
rupted and asked the referee to stop
the game until the people on the
north side should get back of the
fence. The referee waited until the
goal was kicked and the game began
over. This was all done in the first
quarter The second quarter ended
in no material gains for either side,
except that the ball was in TOma-
hawks territory most of the time.
Score of first half.
Taugher made the second touch
down in the first part of the third
quarter, and then retired to the side
lines. Zsmmerer took his place. Mil
Ter, of Tomahawk, succeeded in max
ing a run of thirty yards which re-
suited in a touch down. Taugher
came back in the last quarter and the
Wausau highs made two touch downs.
