WHAT'S WHAT AT B. H. s.
By Jerry Quique

The newest and most uniq., plan for raising the wherewithan for that Washington trip has put into action this week when several Senior girls stated their purpose to distribute fancy Christmas cards among inter- ested buyers. This method of help ing fill the coffers Of the Washington Bank will be eagerly seized upon by those students whose earning power is limited. The sponsors of this plan expect to raise no small amount in this manner with the assistance of people who practice the sending out of these little reminders of the YuIe- tide season.
 Fiushing's Advent
 With the football season drawing rapidly to lose, interest in the grid iron game seems not to be waning one iota here at school. The cheering section go at the victory songs with a will and the student body promises to turn out today enmasse to witness the big game with Flushing. l.. l., High School. Last year the Brook lynites trimmed the locals by the margin of one sman touchdown. This year the Hilltoppers are particularly anxious to turn tables. If there anx- iety to get even for last years de- feat Is exceeded by their fighting spirit On the grid today 1t would ap- pear that the F1ushingites are due for second place. The New Workers are big husky fellows we'll coached, as all New York teams are. With the local line and the backfie1d in sorry condition owing to ineltgibi1ity of many firsti string players. also in juries to several stars which will sur- flee to keep them on the side lines, the chances for a victory seem un- usually slim. However the local team is a mystery team if there ever was such an aggregation. The substitute men oftimes have proven themselves better players in pinch than some of the varsity.
 If the players feel in the mood to, fight they will win. If they go into the fracas kadaizickally they will receive a grand snrudging.
 That Fairfield Fracas
 Allowing the Flushing pastime to take it's place with the ranks of the gone. but not forgotten, let us turn to the more obvious Fairfield game. This engagement promises to take on the aspect of the Marne and Wa terdoo cambined. What with the little sore spot in the Fairfield make up irritated and then sponged off with salt water by the Bridgeport manager when he refused to sched- ule the suburbanites if they insisted on rem 1ova1 any part of the gate re- ceipts with them.

Members of the Senior Class of the Hilltop school have unoff1cially adopt ed a motto by which to determine their future activities. Haste makes waste,'' is the old adage, and it's at tendant conservation of energy, abil- ity and efficiency will serve as the guiding slogan for seniors. Contrary to custom, this years senior class dis claimed all desire to organize. Rather than be nasty about choosing helms man and his assistants for the com ing year, the senior leaders wished to give their classmates every opportun- fty to conider thoroughly the capab1l- itie5 of the prospective candidates. When the time came last week for the final election of the class presi- dent each member of the class has fixed in his or her mind the person John Waters, long recognized as a leader of his class, editor -in-chief of the "Pen,' the high school literary organ and a student of high scholas tic standing. vas was chosen as the pilot
 MT. Waters is good ooking, wide-awake boy, popular alike with students and teachers. His most outstanding trait, so it would seem to his classmates, is his uncanny ability to suggest. organize and put across events unheard of in a high school students life. His latest exploit, thirg absolutely without precedent in high school annals is the proposed trip to Washington which he hopes will be attended by practically the entire class.
 Class Raises Fare.
 The collateral for the trip which amounts to $35 a head will be raised for the most part by the cooperation of the class. Already money has be- gun to pour into the class Washington Trip treasury, a bank which is set aside for the students who desire to earn money to defray the expenses of the journey.

The Fair fielders after a deal of henn1ing and having finally swallowed their pride in their anxiety to lower the colors of the cocky Bridgeport crew. It now seems as though, in order to get a Whacll at the local team and settle once and for ail the supremacy of that select circle of towns.

They will fight, bleed and die with the knowledge that their school athletic ASSOCIATION will be none the richer for their hav- ing to take up the call of battle. The locals know full we'll sthat this game will be 8 big drawing card. i. that the coffers will overflow with lucre as result. It seems to us that the local management might have been a wee bit more magnanimous in their dealings with the small town boys.
 Yea. the Fairffeld-Bridgeport game will be a holocaust. and we would like to hazard a prediction that if the Bridgeport forwards are not con- tinually on the lookout for that shifty, hard running player. Kish by name, the Park City lads will see their precious goal line crossed ana recrossed by a team which is drawn from less than three hundred stu dents.

CONFERENCE OF COACHES
 DECIDES ON FINAL RULES

At the first meetitng of its nature in the history of girls basketball in this state fifty represe natives Of high school athletic coaches from every rart of Western Connecticut. it was decided to organize the teams Of this section of the strte into a Conference. This Conference of girls basketball teams will operate und er set rules. There will be, under the new plans, no deviating from the rules adopted this morning. In the past according to members of the oaches association. no two teams worked under the same rules, this fact necessitating much wrangling over officials, and officials decisions. The new rules eliminate this disa- greeable phase of inter-school games.
 Basketball coaches from Meriden, Stamford, Waterbury, Naugatuck, Milford. Torrington. Fairfield.

The new rules do not declare that the local misses may not play teams outside of the Conference. Quite the contrary
 This get-to-gether of coaches who work in schools which are neighbors of Bridgeport's will do much to pro mote tranquility between schools within the circle of the Conference and will eliminate much of the en. mity which has prevailed to some extent in the past.
 Basketball Schedule

 Chief Forester William B. Greeley of the Forest Service. United States Department of Agriculture, has just written the state suDerintendents or schools calling attention to the dan- ger from the dry condition Of the forest and woodlands at this time of the year and seeking to bring be- fore the children the need of care with fire
 , According to estimate made by the Forest Service, 33.0OO forest fires occur annually; over so per cent are caused by human carelessness. Each year these fires burn over 100000 acres, an area greater than Mass achusetts, Connecticut, New Hamp- shire and Rhode Island combined. Seventeen million dollars of our country's wealth is each year reduced to smoke and gray ashes.

theater and individual and bodies of every description to participate in making the week, December 3-9. a real nationwide revival of educa tional enthusiasm.
 The Americanism Commission of the American Legion called upon the Commissioner of Education to invite President Harding to. issue a procla- nation for the observance of this week. The President has given assur- ance of his desire and willingness to do this.
 The Bureau of Education has ar ranged with the Interdepartment Ad- visory Committee on Government Ra- dio Broadcast:ng to use the govern ment's broadcasting stations twice a day throughout the week for the pro- mitigation of educational radio ma terial in connection with the weeks S campaign.
 Topics for Discussion
 In order that the campaign might be concentrated upon phases of ed ucation which are of outstanding sig nificance, to designate certain days on which topics should be stressed. These days are as follows: Sunday, December 3, God and Country; Mon day, December 4, American Citizen ship; Tuesday, December 5, Patriot ism; Wednesday, December 6, School and Teacher; Thursday, December '. Illiteracy; Friday, December 8, Equal ity of Opportunity; and Saturday, De cember g, Physical Education and Hygiene. These topics have been se- lected because they are considered to be matters of national importance and desirable throughout the country. It is suggested that these topics should not preclude the various states from those features of educa- ton which need to be emphasized at this time in their respective states. nor should they prevent cities and localities from pushing their individ- ua1 needs.
