This amount will be raised as far as possible by the class as a whole, by means of plays, dances, fairs, and many other devises. Just before train time the financial stand ing of the class will be t~talled and the amount divided equally among those who take the trip While the entire amount will not be raised, a large proportion of the fare being as stunned by the voyager this method of raising money will enable many who might encounter difficulty in procur- ing or earning forty dollars to make the journey for considerably less.
 Will Decide Tuesday.
 The Junior class will meet Tuesday to decide on the feasibility of the plan which is the first of it's nature to be attempted in the history of the High school. Chaperones will be included in the assennblage of tourists, mem- bers, both of the faculty and students families, will accompany the caval- cade to Washington. A school bank will be placed in the High sch ool cor ridor and will be devoted solely to saving money for the proposed visit.
 The newly elected class officers will have charge of the excursion. Carlton Wiedenhammer was elected to fill the presidency; Estelle McEi- roy will act as vice president; Paul Hitler as treasurer. and Mary Drew as secretary will officiate throughout the school year.

In a brief message to the faculty and student body of the high school through the medium of the high school paper, "The Criterion" Superintend- ent of Schools D. Everett Cortright, pledged his full and undivided support toward furthering plans for the rapid erection of another high school and expressed a keen appreciation at the scholastic records of the student body. The Superintendent believes that the erection of an up-to-date and central 1y located athletic field would fill a long felt want.
 Mir. Cortright's Message.
 The Bridgeport High School has 8 tremendous problem which Is also a great privilege. It stands for the communtty'S combined effort to prop erly prepare the boys and girls for the future so that when the time comes to assume charge of affairs they will be amply prepared for the obligation. Its privilege lies in opening the way through it's student activities to en- large the training that would natural ly come through it's class room work, so that the sympathies of the boys and girls. will be aroused and that they may look forward with confidence to responsibilities as they may come later.
 l extend my greeting to the faculty at this time with the fervent anticipa- tion of furthering the plans for an- other high school in the city which will

ENTIRE JUNIOR CLASS PLANNING
 WEEKS TRIP TO NATIONS CAPITOL
Third Year Students Threaten to Set Precedent in Journey to Washington-Will Work to Earn Money for Trip

High school students are forever trying to cast precedent to the winds to establish new custom which is following faithfully throughout the years to follow. The most recent development along these lines came to light when mem bers of the Junior class submitted a new and novel plan, novel anyway for local high school students. It is planned for the entire class to embark on a weeks journey to the Nations capitol
 The peculiar fact about the proposed trip is that every one who joins the expedition is to work and earn his fare and hotel expenses. Easter timo has been chosen as a propitious time for the journey, what with the weather mild and cool, and the cherry trees in blossom. The largest hotel in Wash ington will be required to accommo- date the crowd if the entire class num- bering approximately $50 students, takes the trip.
 Through the White House.
 Many excursions will be mapped out after the arrival of the students. Special trips to the Presidents man sion, to Arlington and to Mount Yer non, the home of our first president will be includede in the itinerary The trip should prove an attractive one since Washington is perhaps the most beautiful and most up-to-date city in the world.
 A novel method will be put into play to raise the money necessary for

give to them better working condi- tions and a better opportunity to really guide the boys and girls who are finally placed in their care. pledge them full and undivided sup port in every professional venture for the betterment of school conditions and shall consider 1t a privilege to confer with them in such matters.
 To the student body I want to ex- tend congratulations on the high scholastic record that has been main tained under trying conditions in the past, and to venture the hope that the future will see this maintained, strengthened, and advanced. My wholehearted support will come to them in their united efforts toward school projects, whether it lie in the athletic field, the securing of scholar ships, or in furthering the splendid efforts to obtain a Iipe organ and other better equipment; and believe that together, somehow, we should seek to solve the need for an athletic field centrally located where not alone time might be saved in carrying on the necessary practice, but where visiting teams could be entertained with pride.
 My best wishes come to the Criterion Board in all avenues of your effort and l shall watch with keen interest the progress along these lines.

 The school is located in rather small quarters. and on first sight 1t doesn't look to be such big thing. But frequently the biggest oppor- tunities do not look so big at first sight. Miss Stephens said the school was ''just as big as any opportunity"
