COMMITTEE TO PUSH
GIN PROJECT NAMED
Backers Of Movement To Sc
cure Athletic Building
Are Organizing.

Notwithstand the fact that the mat.
ter of new gymnasium buildings for the
junior high schools cannot be brought
before the voters Of this sehooI district
at the June election, A. A. Lee, who
was appointed as chairman Of the meet.
ing which initiated the movement, has
proceeded to complete the selection Of
a committee Of five eitizens who should
be responsible for the work Of bringing
the question before the taxpayers at
special election. This committee is
made up Of DIR. f. E. Fisher, represent
ing the Parent-Teachers association or
Grant school; Judge Earle Race, Of the
Yew Park school; DR.. NJ. c. Findley, Of
the Washington school; E. S. Tilling-
hast, of the Highland school, and A. f..
Marcus, of Lincoln school,
Commenting on this action, Mr.. Lee
states that his object in making up this
committee at this time was TO have some
regularly constituted body to whom the
matter could be referred and who would
be authorized to act when the patrons
of the school finally got together and
made arrangements to carry the project
through
II is generally believed that the ear
lest date upon whicha special election
can now be called win be SO late In
the season that large number Of inter
ested patrons and leading spirits who
would have to furnish enthusiasm ror
such an elctcion would be out Of the
city, and on the other hand, If Il were
postponed until fall there would be no
likelihood Of securing the buildings in
time for use this year. The matter
now resolves itself into a question as
to whether the taxpayers OF this district
are sufficiently enthusiastic over this

Pythian Sisters High Gnks
Second Annual Success

The City hall was crowded Wednes-
day night to see the second annual pro-
duetion Of High Jinks given by the
Pythian Sisters. Fun began with the
program at $500. The seating capacity
of the hall had long since been taken
and standing room also. At the con
elusion of the program of music and
readings, every number being a spec
ialty with the Jazz band an extra, the
floor was cleared OF the choirs to en-
able the crowd to enjoy the side shows
and give the cops chance TO pull any
body on a disorderly charge, take them
before q solemn Judge and be fined the
sum of an ice cream cone. The side
shows had Barnum shaded, the poultry
show, art studio, curiosity shop and
all the rest of it was a sure cure for the
blues. The exhibit closed with a grand
march; dancing followed. A large oum-
Der were present from Barlow, Candy,
Aurora, Needy and a number from Sill
verton and Woodburn. Receipts $172.l0.

An important feature Of the Centen-
ary campaign in the Methodist Episeo-
pal churches of Salem and vicinity was
the "vietOry Dinnerp which wes held
in the parlors Of Leslie church last
evening. More than us persons were
seated at the tables. The Glee club Of
Willamette University was present, and
contributed greatly 10 the enjoyment

rendered selections. Another pleasing

a whistling solo by Mrs. G. c. Clark,
who responded grsciously to a general
request made by those who had had the
pleasure of hearing her before.
After dinner had been served, and
well enjoyed, DR.. t. B. Ford, superin-

reports of the progress of the Centen-
ary campaign from those portions OF
