Reports gathered by the Federal Re-

There was no qulbbling on Dunn's

The government decided that the
Dunn construction forces would be OF
more use at home.
Baseball was more or less OF a mania
with Dunn. lie had owned several
minor league clubs before he decided
70 get into the major game and bought
the Cleveland club. He never got his
money out OF the investment and never
realized his ambition OF winning a pen

the mere money involved.
But when the time came he gave ar
ambition, investment and all.
Dunn can well be rated side by sid'

High School Notes
(By Dave WHITLEY

Wednesday morning of last week
Miss Parr, the Latin instructress
gave an illustrated talk in the gym
nasium. Her subject was Ancient
Greek and Roman Mythology" The
pictures of the statues of the gods
and goddesses and the stories about
them told so ably by Miss Parr made
one of the most interesting talks this
semester.
Alvin Neville, Oscar Hanson, Olin
Conwell and David Whittle were ush-
ers at the basketball game last Fri
day night with Phoenix.
The eleven typewriters Prof. Hollo-
well and the typewriting students
were looking forward so eagerly to

that the United States government

chimes with the Underwood people
and all other orders are secondary to
this one.
A typewriting test was given last
Thursday and another on Wednesday
of this week. Most of the students
have made the required number of
words per minute, and some are try
ing for the sixty-word diploma.

The students have welcomed the
