SCHOOL NOTES

Washington's birthday was appro- priately observed at both Brannen and Emerson schools. Pupils of the Elm spective rooms at the usual time in the morning, but later gathered at the Federated church where a very in- teresting program was rendered. The program was divided into two sec tions, the elementary grades includ- ing the kindergarten and grades one to six inclusive, gave their part of the exercises from ten to eleven o'clock while the junior high school followed immediately after. This week Febru- ary 1926 being national song week, the idea of community singing was strongly emphasized in both pro- grams.
 The training school and ninth grade played their first game together on Monday. The first half both teams played hard. The training school made the first basket on personal foul on Ed Conrard, preceded by a basket by Marine. Both teams played fast after that, but no more baskets were made in the first half. The score at the end of the first half be- ing to 2, ninth grades favor. In the second half the training school started out fine. Ed Conrard and Sherman Schwarz made several baskets apiece followed by basket by the training school. Ed Black, although half foot shorter than the training school center equaled in jumping.
 At the end the score was 5 to II in the tenth grades favor. Probably the best game of basket ball played by the Emerson girls this season was staged on the Winslow floor, Saturday evening, February IS. The game snappy and close to the very end the score often being tie, until the last quarter.
 Emerson guards Dunn and Mo Gookin did some splendid passing and played almost impregnable defensive. The team play on the part of the jun for high girls ranked above that of the Winslow team though the individ- ual playing of the latter was signifi- cent. The Flagstaff jumping center and her side center made some splen- did plays passing the ball with speed and dexterity to their forwards, who, however, were so heavily out-guarded that they had very few opportuni- ties to shoot for the basket. Anne Amelia with her usual speed was most remarkably supported by our long-distance basket shooter Velma Gum.
 The score was 13 to 21, with the following lineup:

 Guards EMERSON. Williams, Esther McGoolxin, Annis Ore, Verla Dunn, Mildred

 Karay, Elizabeth Allsup, Hazel Side Center

team on last Thursday by close mar gin the score being 29 to 27 in favor of the visiting team. The score at the end of the first half was 12 to 8 in favor of the Flagstaff boys, but Holbrook came back strong at the be- ginning of the second half and suc- ceeded in tying the score. Then it was anyone's game from this point until the end of the game, for as soon as one side succeeded in making a goal it was soon duplicated by the other side. However, just few sec onds before the whistle blew, Lee of Holbrook made a goal which won the game. The local boys thought that fate was against them in spite of their good playing.
 Ernest Yost starred for Flagstaff, while Facer of Holbrook was the leader in scoring for their team.
 The Emerson boys played a fast and spirited game against more ex- perienced and much heavier team, and should feel proud of the record they have made in their contests with four-year high schools.
 The following students in the short hand class at the Emerson high school have just been informed that they have been elected to membership in The Order of Gregg Artists: An nette Meech, Wilbur Frey, Felice Rodriguez, Pansy Nickell, Glen Long ley, Bessie Benson.
 The boys of the military training department of the Emerson school are getting very anxious to continue their drill and rife practice, but the inclem- ent weather has prevented them from following their usual program. J. P. McVey, the manual training teacher, has charge of this department, and through his recommendation the fol- lowing boys have received commits sions from the state office: Melvin Mccormick, first lieutenant; Ernest Yost, second lieutenant. The boys feel proud of their appointments and should endeavor to fulfill their res- pective officers with credit to them selves and the state.
 Health conditions of children of both Brannen and Emerson schools are very encouraging according to the report of Freda Johnson, the school nurse. On Monday there were fourteen absent from school and only two were reported as having symp- toms of the flu and two others as hav- ing chicken pox. All cases of illness among the pupils should be reported immediately to Miss Johnson as we are anxious, if possible, to prevent any unnecessary spread of the flu epidemic as reported exists at Ash Fork, Jerome, Springerville and St. Johns, where the schools are closed.

 New York, June 8.-A3ide from the threat of a renewal of civil war, three powerful political cro9s-cur- rents are moving in China to-day. All have common aim m-domina- tion of the country. Roughly. the three groups mint be described as follows:

 3. Tie agency of Japanese influ- ence working through General Chang Tso-Lin.
 8. The Republicans representing pr. Sunn Yat Sens followers-the Chinese students, young intellectu- als and the mass Of Christian ized Chinese.

 Ends in Verdict-Defensc Appeals and is Given 55 Days to File Exceptions.
(From Thursdays Dal1y)

Tony Mcdonald of this city yes terday afternoon was sentenced to serve seven years in the state penl- tentiary on the charge Of cafnal abuse. The defense appe lied the verdict and was given fifty-fiVe days within which to file Dill of exceptions. Pending the filing of the bill, the defendant was re- leased under a bond of ten thousand dollars, supplied by w. J. McDon- aid. father, and W. J. Mcdonald, Jr., brother of the convicted young man. The case was heard in the Clay County Circuit Court at PigGott Judge R. E. l.. Johnson presiding The jury was out le5s than one hour. The state was represented by Prosecuting Attorney Cecil Shane and Deputy Prosecuting Attorney John T. Batten The defense was represented by Attorney M. P.

 The case was the outgrowth of a hearing in the court of Esq. A. E.. Hays on July 30, 1921, at which time the defendant was charged with having seduced Rebecca, the daughter of Wiley George of this city, and at that time reported ta be only fourteen years of age. The case was held to the grand jury of the December term of the Greene County Circuit Court at which time the girl refused at first to divulge information that would establish the identity of the father of her babe, or to confirm the testimony she had given at the hearing in Esq. A B. Hays court She was then locked up and upon being released and permitted to spend the night in her own home. testified the child was that of person other than MT. Mcdonald. The conflicting testi- mony introduced by the girl resulted in her being sent to the state in dustrial school for girl5 for term of three years.

 Says Contract Was Broken
 "TEe facts" said Senator LaFol- lette, "are simply that in 1914, an owner of coal mines in Arkansas named Bach decided to run his mines nonunion, although in the midst of a strong union district, and accordingly he violated his contracts with his men by hiring nonunion men, discharging union men and proceeding to run his mines nonunion He declared in a letter, which is contained in the case on appeal, to do this means bitter fight, but in my opinion it can be accomplished by proper organization. The results of Bach s action were, of course, violence and destruction of property, which he had anticipated and provoked.
 Through a receiver of the mine, suit was brought against the United Mine Workers of America, various locals and humorous individuals to recover damages, charged in the complaint to have resulted from a conspiracy on the part of the defendants to violate the interstate
