Ell PAso HIGH SCHOOL LEADS.


Editor Ell Paso Herlad-
In April there was sent out from
Austi2 a list Of 20 questions on geOm-
etry TO be given to students in the
large high schools Of the cities OF Tex
as who had finished geometry.
This list was rather long. but the
questions were to be answered in 40
minutes. The intention was to stand
ardize the teaching Of geometry over
the state and the test was not only for
knowledge, but for qulckness and ac-
curacy.
The Fl Paso students led all other
schools in the high percentage Of quss-
lions answered whether right or
wrOng) out OF the list. In the per-
centaEe Of correct answers the FL Paso
students led the other schools by a
margin OF 10 percent. CThe names OF
the other large high schools and Of the
normal were not stated in the COM
mum cation from Austin-l
The examiners at Austin who con-
Quoted this test Of schools over the
state in geometry have naturally COM
plimented the FL Paso high school up
on this excellent showing and this
compliment is passed on TO the patrons
OF FL Paso schools as evidence Of pro-
ficiency in mathematics IN the local
high school

The census bureaus figures are often amusing. Ac-

his grandfather was. Lots Of US know we don't and

had killed only three rabbits during

expected back until tomorrow and Il
is presumed that they will bring in the
usual stories of heavy slaughter Of

a bird had been killed nor a Wild

whether the Commissioners, who were
