 The Normal baseball team received an lawful walloping" at the hands of the Prescott high school baseball team on Saturday afternoon. The Normal boys have about decided that they do not know much about the great Amer ican game. With only twelve boys enrolled in school it is not surprising that it is not possible to pick out a winning nine. Although the boys were unable to win in baseball they succeeded in capturing the champion ship in the other three scholastic sports, football, basketball and track. The lineup for the game Saturday was as follows:

Miss Betty Harrington has been notified that she was the successful candidate in the competitive examina- tion for the University of Arizona scholarship from Coconino county.

tarians returned at noon yesterday
from the Seventh Annual Conference
Of the clubs of the nth District, held

day Judging from reports obtained
from a few of those who were there"
it was a real gathering Of real Rotar-
ians, and probably the largest in the
history of Rotary, attended by four
thousand members Of the various clubs'
Of the district.
Every member Of the Ardmore dele
cation received a great deal of added
understanding of the aims and pur
poses and accomplishments of Rotary;
and the inspiration gained as result
Of the conference will probably be inn
parted to every member of the club in
such way that a great deal Of good
work will be accomplished because of
the high ideals created in the minds
of those who had the privilege Of max
ing contact and associating with such
n representative group Of citizens of
the states of oklahoma, Kansas and
Missouri all linked together under the
motto Of Service, not Self
Morning and afternoon sessions Of
the conference were held Thursday and
Friday, with round tables Thursday af-
ternooh for the discussion of various
phases Of Rotary work. The after
dinner sessions each evening were
given over to programs Of stunts" pro-
vided by groups representing differ
ent clubs. In addition dancing was pro-
ided both evenings, with other forms Of
entertainment for those who were not
attracted by the ball room.
Thursday evening a banquet was
provided at which full four thousand
guests were seated Words will not
serve to describe the magnlficencc Of
that affair. according to the delegates
who say that only by seeing it could
one realize how beautiful ana impress
sive was the sight of the banquet hail
perfectly arranged for serving such a

of escorting the guests Systematically
to their places, seating them in their
respective groups and serving them
quietly and efficiently was a wonderful
demonstration Of the possibility of or
ganized effort on the part of citizens
who believe that "he profits most who
serves best"
Wichita can certainly be proud Of the
way in which she entertained her guests

OPEN SPECIAL CLASS
in ART FOR TALENTED

For the boys and girls who have
shown unusual artistic ability there
has been opened at East High
School, Cleveland, Ohio, special
class in art, so that the students of
greater ability will not be held to the
slower pace Of those not so talented.
The idea is to give the more en-
thusiastic art students-there are
always a few in every large high
school, they say-a good start on
the road to professional careers as
artists before they leave school.
Pose drawing, with members! of
the class as models, memory sketch
ing, still life" drawing, and paint
ing are done. The boys and girls
like the work and are making good
progress.
