Traffic Regulation
Is Discussion Topic
in Advisory Groups

Discussion of regulation Of traffic
in the halls of Mandan high school
has been taken up by the student
council and various advisory groups
of the school in an effort to solve
the problems arising from traffic
between class periods.
The plan suggested is to have each
advisory group choose one member
TO be in the halls between periods
and cooperate with members of the
faculty to see that running and jost-
ling are stopped.
The adoption Of the point system
to regulate, guide and control stu
dent participation in extra curricular
activities has also been topic Of
discussion in the advisory groups, al
though no definite decision has as
yet been reached. Under this sys-
TEN, students would be awarded
points for each activity in which
they participate and would be limited
to definite number of points, thus
giving more students a chance to
take part and hold office in extra
curricular activities. The plan has
been worked out in other Northwest
high schools and has proved highly
effective.

Sesqui Coins Show
Very Little Profit

Philadelphia, Dec. l3.-R-Amer-
leans are disinclined to pay one dol
lar for fifty-cent piece, even though
the coin bears the likeness of both
George Washington and President
Coolidge. Nor are they enthusiastic
about paying $3.50 for $3.50 gold
pieces, regardless Of the design.
Profit from special coins struck for
the Sesqui-C Exposition
recently amounted to slightly more
th"r 1925 900.
The coins were minted last May.
One miiiion of the silver pieces were
turned out while 100000 Of the gold
pieces were made. A check short
time ago revealed that about 10000
Of the half-dollars and $4,000 Of the
$3.50 gold pieces had been disposed
of.
The minting of the silver pieces
created precedent, marking the
first time that the likeness Of liv-
ing president appeared on national
coin. Unsold pieces will be remelt-
ed at the mint.
