Registration yesterday ran consider
ably lighter generally throughout the
city thar on the first day of registra-
ton last year. Reports early this
morning showed that in many districts
the figures were running close to those
of 1920. and in some cases exceeded
them
The total registration for the day
was 139,104 as against 62,20S for the
same day in 1921.
The Bronx count, which was the first
completed, showed a total of 1919, as
against 23,494 for 1921. In every dis
trict the figures were below those of
last year, and other boroughs showed
little variation.
Light registration had been expected
by political leaders for the opening
day, but display of greater interest is
expected before the close of the week.
There were many predictions that the
total registration would prove to be
heavier than last year.
Women turned out generously on the
West Side. in some districts outnum-

The Manhattan registration was live
lier than in other boroughs. and gave

was some experience with the litera CIV
test law. but few persons were reported
TO have actually taken the test and to
have been successful. At Suffolk and
Rivington streets in the Fourth Assem-

the test and only three had passed.

Richmond gave a complete count of
3.049, against 1897 for 1921. or nearly
500 under last years figures.
Queens dropped nearly 2,3OO from the

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Last Friday evening the Senior
class presented its annual play. The
play was entitled "Come Out Of the
Kitchen. 1t has a simple plot and
is sprinkled with the humorous saw
ings of many of the characters. The
story is briefly this: The father OF the
young Dangerfields is in Europe for
his health. Finances are very low at
home. So the Dangerfields rent to
Burton Crane, rich young gentle
man from the north. They agree to
provide four white servants, but up
to the last minute are unable to get
any. Finally after listening to the
urgings of Olivia, the youngest Dam
gerfield girl, the rest of the children
agree to masquerade as the servants
until their agent can get some The
rest of the story deals with the events
that happen after Crane and his
friends arrive. 1t seems that Crane
has admired Olivia Dangerfeld ana
when he discovers that the cook is
really Olivia he is overjoyed and de-
cides to stay with her always.
