H. S. GIRLS TO
SELLFOOTBALL
SERIES TICKETS

More than 100 students of the
Douglas high school started a con-
certed ticket selling campaign yes
terday after school in behalf of the
Bulldog football team which opens
the season here with the fast Nogales
team on October 8. The visiting team,
has a good strong aggregation and
will come here prepared to win The
students who are leading in the ticket
campaign will automatically become
members of the Boosters club, an
organization which will foster school
spirit in the way of rallies, ticket
drives, and pep yells. In some schools
an organization of this kind is called
the "Howling Hundred"
Students We're urged in the class
meetings yesterday to take out a
few tickets and make an effort to
sell them in advance of the time set
for the game. Students who sell two
tickets earn. a free pass to the game,
while those who sell eight tickets
earn felt Bulldog emblem which
entities them to all home games for
the season.
In return for selling 10 tickets, a
student is given a rooter's cap in the
school colors, old gold and black with
a small D. H. S. emblem in the same
colors. In addition this che class
which sells the greatest number of
tickets is given a $40 cash prize by
the I'D" club, a lettermen's organ!za-
tion.
/ The ticket drive will end at noon
October 8, at which time all prizes
will be given. Football fans in the
city are anxious to see the locai
team in action as present indications
roint to championship team in the
southern conference.
The team deserves the support OF
the city fans as it represents the
fastest team that has been in school
for several years. Each student who
is selling tickets for the Nogales
game is working for a cause, first
the school team, then the class IN
which he is registered, and lastly,
for himself, to earn a seasons pass
to all games.
Considerable enthusiasm is appar-
ent in all classes as the football
season draws nearer. Word from
other schools also shows that SOUTH
ern Arizona will be in the champion
ship race until the curtain falls on
Thanksgiving day.

More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES j. MONTAGUE
Lines by a Parent.

The goings on today we view
With stern disapprobation,
We wonder what will happen to
The rising generation.
Their ways are wild, their minds arc
light,
They crave no sane employment
But seek all day and half the night
For frivolous enjoyment.
When we were young, our ways were
kept
Within wise bound and measure;
We mildly drank and soundly slept
We sought no foolish pleasure.
Around the town we did not whizz
Unchecked by circumspection
Like kids today-at least such is
Our present recollection.
But maybe, now we think of it
We drove our parents frantic
When we kicked up our heels a bit
And waxed mite romantic.
And maybe we'd have been as gay
And seemed as much demented
AS our own young, if in our day
The night club was invented
Well, anyway the youngsters, who
Dance round in such a hurry,
Within the next score years or two
VIII have their share of worry.
So let EN- dance for all they're worth
And Gull their midnight flowers,
The future of this poor old earth
Is their affairs, not ours.

A woman who was very stingy and

ing the lemonade she said: children,
your lemonade is very good Why are

One of the children promptly replied:

WASHINGTON-W the Coolidges
return to Washington, the capital will
brighten up very rapidly officially and
socially.
The presidential family's arrival is
the signal for the cabinet members to
get back from their vacations, for the
big guns of the diplomatic corps to re-
appear at their various embassies and
Legations and for numerous visitors on
political business to come pouring into
the city for all sorts of conferences,
now that the right folk are here once
more, to be conferred with.
Several committees of the senate and
the house of representatives will meet
soon, too, so that there will be in
creased activity at the legislative as
we'll as the executive end of Pennsyi-

interrupted until after election, but at
