HIGH SCHOOL NEWS

Freshmen are Debate Champs


The general assembly last week
was the scene of battle which ragged
fiercely for almost an hour between
the freshmen as aggressors and the
seniors on the defensive end. After
the smoke of battle had lifted, the
dead and wounded removed from the
field, and the hearts of those who
witnessed the struggle had quoted TO
their usual'number of strokes per min
ute, the seniors were found to be IN
state of ignoble defeat.
Quoting chairman, Edward Shaw,
the question for debate on that af-
ternoon was: Resolved, That the
Jury System should be Abolished"
The freshmen, represented by Lora
Lampson and Arthur Carpenter, de-
Tended the negative, while the SEN
iors, represented by Ruth Smith and
Fred Brown, maintained the affirma-
tive.
The outcome of this debate was
rather significant as it was the last
one of the series this season and also
determined whether the freshmen
should have the silver cup presented
to the high school by the Courier
Reporter last year to be competed
for by various classes or whether the
name of the class of twenty-five
should be cut on it again. The fresh
men won unanimous decision of the
judges, but at that it was the best
interclass affair of its kind this year.
Miss Helen Anderson, who coached
the contestants, says that her SYM
pathy was wholly with the judges
who were obliged to make decision
as to which side had the most points.
Evidently she thot it close race.
The freshmen team certainly de-
serves a lot of credit for skill in the
forensic art Arthur Carpenter, who
it pleased Edward Shaw, the chair
man, to introduce as our modern DAN
lei Webster, has gained quite rep
utation as an orator; while his CO.
worker has certainly not let her end
drag. Kennewick debate fans should
keep their eyes on these two students
next year if they go on with debating
as they certainly should.

SCALP ERS
WAR IS
On
Police Ready to Nab Bootleg
gers of Tickets to World
Series Games

The first move of the police de-
partment against world series
ticket scalpers was made in the
form of an order sent to all pre-
cinct commanders from Inspector
Charles E. Evans, acting super
intendent of police, to be on the
lookout for ticket spectators.
ExOrbitant Prices Feared
Fear has been expressed that
large numbers of the pasteboards
would fall into the hands of the
spectators, who would charge ex-
orbitant rates. Efforts are being
made to stamp out the practice by
personal investigation of buyers.
Difficulties arising in the stop
ping of bootlegging of tickets are
seen when persons are willing to
pay any price almost for the tickets
in order to gain admission to the
ball games.
The order from Inspector Evans
states that the regulations pro-
hibit the sale of tickets on any
street. avenue, alley or public place
within the District of Columbia.
Sharp lookout is being kept in
the downtown district where ticket
bootleggers are apt to operate. The
Federal law prohibits the sale Of
tickets by scalpers unless they
have a regular revenue brokerage
license which permits the sale of
the pasteboards on private property.

CailIaux and Mellon Still Far
Apart as End of Farley

BY GEORGE r. HOLMES

The Franco-American debt ne

down stage today.
Joseph Caillaux, the French
finance minister, is due to start
for home in about forty-eight
hours, and there is still consid-
cradle distance between the posi-
ton taken by the American com
missioners and the position chung
to by the French.
The weeks pulling and hauling,
offer and counter-offer has seen
some of the wide chasm between
the American and French view
points successfully bridged, but
still not enough to bring any sig
natures on any dotted lines.

although whether there will be any
signing of papers appeared at least
doubtful. 1t was suggested in
some quarters that M. Caillaux
might reach an informal agreement
and leave it thus, as he did with
Winston Churchill in London.
The Americans, however, would
rather bring fountain pens into
play. The French have been "un
official and informal" for five
years concerning their $4,000 900 900

Trained Trout Knows
Name and Feeds
From Hand

HAGERSTOWN, Nd, Sept.
29-The only known trained
fish in captivity is a speckled
trout, weighing three or four
pounds, the dean of a school of
trout living in a large spring
on the farm of Cyrus Stouffer,
near Smithsburg.
According to Stouffer, the
fish. which he has named "Jim"
and is about fifteen years old,
knows his name and comes to
the surface of the spring to be
fed when called.
"Jim" is so old that he has
gone blind, but his supremacy
as leader of the speckled beau
ties that make their home in
the spring is still recognized by
the other fish.
When feeding time arrives,
"Jim," leading the school of
trout, swims at the head of
the other fish to the edge of the
spring and takes feed from
Stouffer's hand.
The old trout has become so
tame that Stouffer can pick it
from the water without the fish
wiggling.

The task of chief questioner of

Love lifts up the lowest to the high
est, places the lowly born by the side
of the bright particular star. 1t binds
us to earth; and when our loved one
has been taken from US it lifts us to
heaven. Who shall tell It's glories and
its victories? Without it a life passed
is like a year gone by without any sum
mer-cold, chilly, unfruitful, without
pleasure or charm With it the worst
state is endurable. The palace is but
stable or an Clubhouse without it-a
very prison; the very prison when the
loved one shares 1t is palace. Such is
particular love. When that, upon the
freeing of our souls from this muddy
vesture Of decay" which incloses it, has
grown into general love for our fell
lows and love of alteration for our
Maker we shall not be far off para
disc, for indeed heavens harmony is
uniyersal.-Hain Friswell
