 Whether the Players Club will at tempt anything in the dance line has not yet been determined. Many of the members of the Thespians league are content to limit their field of en- deavor to stage productions. Should the young Sophomores organize they will demand theic little fling on or about Christmas tirne.
 Much For GittIe.
 Social life plays no small part in the high school students life. The various classes and organizations seem to vie with one another in pro- ducing the most tastefully decorated or the most successful event from a monetary viewpoint. Considering the marvelously low price of admission tickets are never m!ou'e than 25 cents -one wonders how everyone has such a bang-up good time in the face of apparent extravaganza
 All the work of decorating. adver- Using, and selling of tickets is done by the student committee. The com mfttee members whose tastes run to- ward the artistic will spend hour af- and wild flowers about the gynna- sium until the apperature is a mass of color.

Milford Romance Goes on Rocks
 in N. Y. Court

A Milford romance went on the rocks in the New York Supreme Court yesterday when 17-year-old Geneva Mitchell Savage stage dancer, asked for the annulment of her marriage on March 5 last to Robert Savage, son of the late John A. Savage, Detroit steel magnate.
 The young woman. who parted from her husband after they had been married only two days, is the daughter of Mrs. Verna Mitchell ei Milford Young Savage, who has just attained his 21st birthday. was at a private school in Milford preparing for Yale when he first met the pi= quant stage girl
 It was a cast of love at first sight They met several times afteFward and of this year they made up. During the hearing yesterday letter was 1n- troduced written by Savage from Mil ford to the chorus girl prior to their elopeme ment in which he outlined plans for their marriage He was only 20 al this time and Geneva IT,

Compulsory gymnastic instruction under conditions now existing at Bridgeport High School has brought forth a storm of protest from students of the Board of Education which makes physical education an elective subject in the high school curriculum. As yet the protest is unofficial. Un- less a remedy for the existing evils connected with gymnasium work is found immediately the rumble of dis content threatens to make itself heard with deafening effect on thosa who have power to eradicate these nuisances.
 The consensus of opinion seems to be that the Education Fathers put the new ruling into effect before the equipment necessary to gymnasium work was installed. The work is now carried on in short periods, the parti- cipants are deprived of shower baths, thereby endangering health and mak- ing bodily comfort out of the ques- tiOn for the rest of the day. These facts have been brought out by mem bers of the student body in a debate on the question of gymnasium work Many of the arguments against the work under existing conditions were couched in no uncertain terms, the students spokesman rendering the affirmative arguments nil with few well placed hot-shots against the short period of training and the lack of time for adequate cleansing after the strenuous period of physical instruc- tion.

 STAR WANDERER HOME AGAIN

Ray Whelan, the wandering boy of high school athletics, made a wild goose chase to He hron, Me, the other day, fully ex- peeting to enter the little Hebron Preparatory school which ''Ching" HammiH, former high school star athlete, made famous. But Rays trip to the Maine academy was in vain. The Hilltop star failed to come to a satisfactory agreement on tuition and board fees, and re- turned home post-haste.
 Whelan is now back with his old class mates at the high school where he will finish out his senior year. Whether or not he will take active participation in ath- Ietics he has not definitely decid- ed. His left knee is notOriously weak, and it is expected that he will be content with basketball and baseball IaureIs, letting the call of the gridiron fall unheed- ed.
 Rays beiated return to the fold was welcomed by his host of admirers, and several of his class mates are trying to persuade the young man to fill a much needed berth on the a1-to-Weak football team.
