 entire Indian School band look sick. Not satisfied with working his arms and lungs, Burt gave d few leg per formances between yells If Burt leads the Coyotes in yelling at all the games like he did Saturday we should not lose game the rest of the season.
 In the first hour physics class MT. Elliot was Illustrating the result of pressure on water. He had a Cartesian diver in a bottle with water. He fitted a stopper with a mouthpiece in it, in the neck of the bottle When he blew on the mouthpiece, the diver would sink and come up when he stopped blowing. He had several of the stu dents try to blow it down but all failed. One boy, after trying repeated ly to blow the diver down claimed that he should get ''E'' in effort for this month. At last MT Elliot told the pupils that he pressed on the sides of the bottle and forced the diver to sink in this way. He then showed them that the mouthpiece was closed at the end Anyone not beleveing this can go to Mr. Elliot and have it proven to them by illustration
 Coach Geary says there will be no more parades before a football game so long as he has any say in the matter. He says that parades before the game starts, have always proved a jinX to him and it seems to be so. Let us hope that the jinX soon passes away and parades can come back again.
 Anyone who sees a Junior with vacant stare in his eyes need not be afraid that he is plotting to blow up the Science building or planning to set fire to the woodsbop as the upper classman is only trying to get an idea for his English chart. Some of the Juniors have excellent charts thought out while some have not yet received an inspiration. MT Stauffacher hopes that all will have the charts in soon so he can pick the best to go to the fair.
 Monday evening Geary was showing the youngsters how to kick a goal. If we had a player on the team with an educated toe like Geary's we could beat any high school team in Califor- nia. We can beat them anyway and perhaps we shall get chance before the season is over.
 Students who are interested in the violin, but who cannot play one will be given an opportunity to learn at school. A class is to be formed for beginners, after school on Fridays in Miss Walsh's music room in the Com mercial building. Meredith Bishop and Beatrice Jackson will be the instruct ors of this class. The orchestra needs second violins and it will not take long to play well enough to go into the orchestra. We hope to have a good many report for organization on Fri day. So come, and bring your violins along.
 The third year Spanish class has just completed the fourth short story, "Buena Pesca,' or Good Fishing by AlarcCn, a famous Spanish author These stories rank among the highest in Spanish literature They are very interesting and portray the Spanish life and customs in such way as to hold the interest of the class The next story, Los Dos Glorias,' prom Ises to be better than the first four.
 The Indians beat us Saturday but wait until Thanksgiving Revenge is sweet. The breaks of the game were against us and We had hard luck. Det- weller, our star quarterback. was hurt early in the game and will be out of football for nearly all the rest of the season. Gorrell one of our tackles, had bad ankle and could hardly walk. But wait until Thanksgiving. The Boys and Girls Glee club has at last started working on the play,
 Mikado.' The books have arrived and real work has begun. The cast is very good as you will find out on December on which date the play will come off. Our own orchestra is practicing daily on Oriental music and ! so far as music is concerned the play will be an immense success. This op- 1 eretta is old but 1t has a certain charm ! in 1t that is never lost The story gets | Its name from the ruler of Japan WnC ! IS called the Mikado. Nanki Pc. the son of the mikado, has fled from the l court in order to escape marrying ] kat1Sha, who is much older than he
 In his flight he goes to the town where | Yum Yum, Pitt Sing and Peep Be l live. These persons are wards of the 1 high eXecutioner, ko Ko. Yum Yum k i betrothed to Ko Ko, but nevertheless | she soon falls in love with Nanki To l the son of the mikado, who has sent l out notice to Ko ko telling him tnal | he has not performed an execution fol l a great length of time, so in order tt 1 hold his office he must soon perform l his duty. ,Ko Ko agrees to let Yum | Yum marry Nanki Pc in case that lit i allows himself to be hanged after 6 | period of one month. Nanki Pc agrees
 also and preparations are begun al | once for the great ceremony. But in the midst of these preparations Ka-
 tisha and the mikado arrive. When the
