HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
(By Butch and Yankee)


The main issue this week is tennis.
We all had hand in it but the sopl-
omores. On the trip to Aspen there
were two freshmen, two junions, two
seniors and two coaches. The sopho-
mores are slow anyway. Sometimes
they remind us of the proverbial molcs-
ses in January. The only way they
can redeem themselves is to hold a
SOPHOMORE DAY and give the low.

then Wilson took the next 6-2. These

A few explosions occurred in the last

Many Of the blouses made in this
style are caught in below the waist
by a loose silk sash which is lightly
attached to the blouse here and there.
The ends Of the sash are tied at the
back: other models are drawn in by n
ribbon run through an inch-wide hem ;
others are caught In by band of fur
as indicated in my drawing. But Of
course, the model illustrated Is an out
door blouse.
You will notice that it is buttoned
right up to the throat at one side.
THIS practical and comfortable notion
Is in great favor this autumn. The
blouse or dress bodces underneath
may be quite decollete, but the cor
