NEW sun SPOTS SEEN
BY NOTED OBSERVER

WHITE PLAINS, N. Y, Sept. 10
(Bv The Associated Press);-Dr,
David Todd, director emeritus OF the
observatory at Amherst College, a
student of u spots and the solar
corona for nearly half a century, /
discovered a fresh outbreak of spots
which will be nearly central on the
suns disk today or tomorrow.
Professor Todd estimated the
breadth of the spotted area as 45,OOO
miles, nearly four times the diam
eter of the earth. He said this was
the first outbreak of sun spots, prob
ably volcanic in character, since the
beginning of July. They were not
visible during the eclipse last Mon
day.
DIR. Todd expressed the opinion
that 1t probably marked the begin
ming of the end of the minimum
range of spots, prevalent the last
few years in accord with the eleven
year cycle originally discovered
about so years ago and, according to
the scientist, verified by observa-
lions, although astronomers nave not
vet discovered a satisfactory version
accounting for the sunspot period.
DIR. Todd discovered the new out
break Tuesday morning. By $3.50
D. m. the spot group was greatly en-
larged. At first 10000, it hen ex-
tended about $4,000 miles, with nu-
merous small spots in the main
group.
There is no evidence" DR.. Todd
said, that this solar disturbance
has any connection with the terrific
earthquake disturbance in Japan
and more recently in India, but l
think it very probable that the
moons position at the time of the
Calcutta quake this week, being di-
rectly between the earth and sun
during last Mondays total eclipse
of the sun, may have been RESPONSE
BILE for Calcutta earthquake shock
as India was the general region or
the earth almost exactly in line
with the centers of earth, moon and
sun. So this may have acted as a
gun trigger effect to set off a dis
turbance of the earth crust which
! Calcutta is built. If the condolences
! of earthquakes with eclipses of sun
and moon were Complementary in
vestigated scientifically, the predic-
ton OF earthquakes might be greatly
advanced and bear some approach
to true science"

At the Crescent

The chief distinction of this
tramp's life was the buggy in which
he rode. The second was the fact
that, contrary to tramp custom, he
gave lifts" instead of receiving
them But that which gave him no.
toriety finally caused the most dras-
tic change of his experience.
Giving a 'lift" to a beautiful
country girl whose Ford obstinately
refused to climb a hill, he falls in
love. In the first stage of his love
tremens his horse bolts, smashing
the buggy beyond repair. This me-
cessitates remaining in the girl's
town until such time as he should
have earned enough money to pur-
chase another buggy, as this tramp
under no circumstances would place
himself at the mercy and within of
railroad attaches and freight cars.

would rather have thrills in their
screen entertainment than any other
quality. And it certainly is true tina
thrills take the monotony out of life.
Personal thrills are not SO good,
either, because they involve a risk
in n~inety-nine out of a hundred
cases.
There have not been so many mo-
ton pictures that were really thrill
ing. There must be a great deal of
mystery and suspense to create a
genuine thrill.
"Bavu," a Universal-Jewel picture
(which will be shown at the Ditmas
theatre beginning today is said to be
the most t%hrillingly mysterious pic
Iture of recent years. Its atmosphere
is foreign and its people strange. The
famous players in the cast include
Wallace Berry. Estelle Taylor, Syl-
via Dreamer, Forest Stanley, Mar
tina Mattox, Nickolai de Ruiz, Josef
Swickard, Jack Rollens and Harry
Carter. Stuart Patton directed the
filming.
"Bavu" tells the story of two men,
one refined, educated and straight
forward, the other a brute, a peas
ant with no education nor heart,
both fighting owe the same woman.
AN aristocratic princess of high
strung nature. The action takes
place during a time of human up
heaval. when human nature is not
reliable and a woman knows not to
which man she may safely turn foT
protection.

PAY TRIBUTE
To AMERICA
Assembly of League of Ma
tons Hears Greek Praise of
this Country

GENEVA, Sept. lathe feature
of the meeting of the assembly OF
the League of Nations today was the
FEELING tribute to the various Ameri-
can relief organizations paid by
Politis, chief of the Greek delegation,
when speaking on the refugee situa-
ton in his country.
Great applause greeted his remark
that no one could ever pay sufficient
homage to the Americans for what
they had done in the Grecian refu-
gee crisis. He asked that the league
continue the work so nobly" begun
by the Americans and Fridtjon Nan
sens relief organizations.
A loan for Greek refugees now is
being studied by the league.
Receiving the deputation from the
international Union of Associations
for the League of Nations, President
Torriente of the assembly gave as
surances that all the assembly dele
gates would study with interest and
appreciation the resolution adopted
at its recently congress in Vienna.
Among the Vienna resolutions
brought to the attention OF DR.. Tor
riente was M expressing the opin-
ion that the machinery of the League
of Nations should be used to eur
with the assistance of Germany, and
if possible the United States, a gen.
eraI settlement of the connected
questions of Preparations, inter-ailied
debts and the security of frontiers.
The international conference Ior
the suppression of traffic in obscene
publications which was convoked by
France has agreed upon the conVeh-
ton which already has been signed
by representatives of Twenty-Five
countries. States not members OF
the league may adhere to 1t.

The British government, it was de-
clared, has not, as reported, sug-
gested a definite date to the ltallans

The enrolment at the high school
has progressed steadily since the be-
ginning of the year. Several new
students have arrived during the
last two weeks, and we now have a
total enrolment Of nineyt-two.
The number of students in at
tendance this year is larger than
that for the same period last year.
Although at first it was a matter
OF concern to many that the number
OF seniors was to be very small as
compared to last year. However,
since the first day, many students
who were not expected to return,
announced their intention, and in
due course of time arrived in the
senior assembly.
The present enrolment of the
sophomore-freshman assembly is
fifty-two this year for the first two
weeks as compared to the forty
eight of last year. The numbers
this year do not include the shop
boys, as those last year did. This
makes still more difference.

SOCIAL EVENTS

The social season of the high
school opened with the dance given
last Friday night at the high school.
The entire student body donated
for the music, which was provided
by Mrs. Baldez and Mr.. Bucking-
ham. All parents, and alumni to-
gether with any friends the students
wished to invite with the consent of
Mr.. Mitchell, were welcome, and
from all reports a good time was
had by all. Quite a crowd was in
attendance, and they enjoyed them
selves thoroughly.
This is the first of a number of
social affairs to be held this year at
the high school, and Mr.. Mitchell
plans to continue the dances, as
they tend to bring the students to-
gether and are also important in
the promoting of the social side of
the students life at the school.
Considerable excitement was
caused among the boys by Miss
Purtell, who, after viewing the sit
uation for some time, became de-
termined that there should be no
wallfowers among them and spent
considerable time convincing the
boys that every one should dance
and show the girls a good time. 1t
S hoped that her suggestions react
ed favorably on those vitality con-
:erned.

PLANS FOR THE
SCHOOL ANNUAL
By Elmer Lyon

Since the student elections, the
editor of the Winnada and his as
sistant have been very busy in
choosing a staff Of reporters for the
present year. It was a quite diff
cult task to choose the various re-
porters, as the talent this year is
wide and varied.
The following is the present list
of reporters as chosen by the editor
and assistant-editor:
Editor, Elmer Lyon.
Assistant-editor, Evalyn Brown.
Business manager, Fred Defen-
baugh.
Advertising manager, Rose Err
ringer.
Senior class history, Hampton
Brady.
Senior class will, Elwyn Hubbard.
Junior history, Gladys Pearce.
Sophomore history, Estelle Pc
trinovich.
Freshman history, Geraldine Blat-
tner.
Organizations, Lillian Pearce,
Horace Adams and Joe German.
Boys athletics, Joe Organ.
Girls athletics, Louise Van Drill
len.
Calendar, Eileen Sutton.
Alumni notes, Bob Bankofer.
Art, Ida Gregg.
All work possible in connection
with the Winnada will be completed
as soon as possible, so that when
spring comes, the editor and various
reporters will not be submerged
with work. If the work can be more
evenly divided up throughout the
year it will then not be such a
chore to make the book a success.

FRESHMAN GIRLS
ALSO INITIATED

On Friday, September Ia, all
of the Frosh girls made out their
last will and testament, leaving
the same with Mr.. Mitchell in the
office, at the same time depositing
there some of their most precious
keepsakes. Incidentally, it will be
interesting to most of US to note
that some of these consisted of: a
glass eye, cement ear, cork leg, set
of false teeth, a rattle, and rub
Der nipple.
Then, under the kind and tender
guidance of sundry upperclassmen,
they undertook the perilous voyage
into the gymnasium, whence unholy
sounds issued which set their teeth
chattering and their knees shaking
so badly that their stockings simply
would not stay up. After the main
performance (the details of which
will not be printed for fear some
fearful eighth graders might read
and refuse to attend the institution
next year, which would break our
hearts,, refreshments were served,
after time had been given the
Frosh girls to recuperate from the
shocks of the initiation.
1t is believed that the girls are
a trifle happy over the ending of
the greater part of the torture of
being miserable frosh. We hope
that they will fully appreciate the
fact that the use of the curling
iron and their beloved powder
puffs is prohibited no longer.

Girls Yell Leader, Susie Abel.
Editor of The Humboldt, Bertis
Goldsworthy.
Editor of The Winnada, Elmer
Lyon.
After the election of Student
Body officers, the classes adjourned
to their assemblies and elected class
officers, and it will not be amiss to
announce these also at this time..
For the Senior class the officers
elected are:
President, Elmer Lyon.
Vice-President, Elwyn Hubbard.
Secretary, Fred Defenbaugh.
Treasurer, Joe German.
For the Juniors:
President, Fred Holloway.
Vice-President, Berton Smith.

Treasurer, Bertram English.
For the Freshmen:
President, Ted LaPoint.
Vice-President, Joe Lyon.
Secretary, Magdalene Selby.
Treasurer, George Vargas.
During these class meetings, the
members chose colors to carry
through the years. The frosh, how
ever, chose the same colors as the
sophomores. This the sophs would
not stand for, and demanded that
change be made at once, as they
did not intend the frosh to wear
their colors under any circumstance
The upshot of it was that the frosh
changed their colors, and the wrath
of the sophs was thus appeased.
