According to predictions, the com
mercial classes are proving to be the
most popular of the different high
school courses. Agriculture and
manual training are also proving to
be popular with the students. The
registration in Spanish shows that
interest in these classes has not
decreased in the past year.
"The interest that the students
have taken in the various classes
means that we are going to have
the best school year that we have
had in the city's history" said II. A.
Scarborough, high school principal.
"The fact that we have had to create
new classes in biology, algebra and
home economics gives an indication
of the interest taken in the various
courses of study.

BLIND DRAW IN TENNIS

The thorough heating which was
given to the delegation from the
United States IN 1921 might not hap
pen again. The fact that English
golfers of repute were defeated as
well as those of the United States
seems to indicate to some that all or
the leaders of golf in both countries
lost their game together. Willie Hun
ter has played some good golf on mis-
visit to the United States. but he has
had his setbacks in trying to win
championship here. as the United
Britain.
Wright and Guilford May Go.
Chick Evans and Francis Ouimet
may not feel that they can make the
trip two years in succession. 1t de-
mands much of their time. both for
the journey to the other side of the
Atlantic and for the tournaments and
practice play after they arrive in
Great Britain. 1t is said that Fred
Wright Will go back to play and Jesse
Guilford may think of starting
against Hunter and the other Eng
lish players next year. There are
some who would like to see Bobby
Jones return to Great Britain and
play again, but he may skip a year
before he enters in another foreign
competition.
Out on the coast. when Futchison
and Barnes visit that section this
winter John Black and Abe Espinosa,
who are stars of the Pacific region,
have been matched for one go against
the fasteners for $1,000. Californians
expect to see great game when these
four players come together, as Black
and Espinosa play the western
courses with top-notch skill. Between
them they have won nearly every
tournament of consequence in Cali
in,
give Jock and his lean partner hard
battle to defeat them.
Another Interesting Match.
In Los Angeles Arthur Clarkson and
Macdonald Smith are to play against
HutchiSon and Barnes. That is an
other match which will arouse plenty
of interest in south hern California. This
is the first time that both the United
States championship and the cham
+pionship of Great Britain have been
held in the United States the same
year. and naturally, when the cham
pions Of both play together. some un-
usually! fine exhibitions are antici-
pated.
Hutchison will very likely go over
to Great Britain to defend his title
in 1922, and the work that he does
prior to then will be followed with
keen interest by the golfers of the
United States. many of whom hope
that he will repeat his victory. for
he is popular where he plays. On the
return home Barnes and Hutchison
Texas. Louisiana, Mississippi and
Florida. making brief stops in all of
these states. Then they will turn
north for Pinehurst. where they ex
pect to arrive about March Is. That
will give them time to polish up for
