The recent election brought the
most sweeping victories for the anti
saloon cause in the history OF the
movement.

tion of 5,400.l66, and an area OF
326.ll2 square miles. eQualing more

ed States, 2,047 were dry, either by
statute or local option. before the
election November 7th, when 191
more counties were added, leaving
only 355 wet counties in the entire
nation.
The significant trend of the times
is the turn of the big Industrial cities
against the saloon. Kansas City, vot-
ing on state wide prohibition, which
failed, Grand Rapids, Seattle. Spo-
kane. Tacoma, all gave decisive dry
majorities. These states were dry be-
fore the election:

The Schedule Committee OF the
Southern Colorado Northern New
Mexico League met In regular session
at Hotel Sherman on last Saturday
afternoon. OF the nine schools that
compose the membership OF this
league. eight were represented by
a member of the faculty; the ninth,
Walsenburg. sent Trinidad as proxy.
This is the most general represen-
tation that has attended this meeting
for some time.
]. Howard Larrick, of Las AMI
mas, resigned as president OF the
league and X. A. Shanner. high
school principal at Lamar. was
chosen to fill his place. Mr.. Larrick's
resignation followed as a conse-
quence of the fact that after jan
uary 1st. 1917, he will be no longer
in school work.
Considerable discussion arose
when 1t was proposed that post-grad-
yates be declared ineligible to par
ticipation in regular championship
athletic contests. Finally. however.
the league voted to retain the elig-
ibility rules of the Interscholastic
Athletic Union of Colorado to govern
such matters for the remainder of
the present school year. These rules

to cut down transportation expenses.
