Last Thursday the Senior As
sembly experienced a profitable
eight period. Regular work was
laid aside while Mr.. Falk addressed
us. First, he briefly reviewed the
coming lyceum course, and urged
all of us to endeavor to purchase
season tickets. Then, drifting to
a more serious theme, he i'm
pressed upon us the necessity OF
study outside of school hours.
This term it is required that each
High School student spend al
least one and a half hours ot
study upon his Lessons besides the
study put in during school hours
We appreciate the fact that Miss
Larson interceded for us because
if she had not, the minimum would
have been greater. This plan
when carried out should produce q
larger number of honor students
and eliminate a host of failures.
Miss Davis has spent some time
this week visiting rural schools
taught by teachers who received
their Normal Training in her de.
partment.
Thursday of last week the stu.
dents of Miss Hunts Class Of AID
vanced Tipping were permitted tt
demonstrate their skill in speed
writing. The results were quite
encouraging. Richard Sweetman
Paul Meyers, and Irene Moynihal
each made over forty words PEE
minute. Clara Schooner, Rutl
Iverson, Frank Steffes, and Ed
ward Peterson wrote thirty o.
more words per minute and will
receive their certificates.
Thursday and Friday of thii
week the thirty-first annual con
vention of the M. E. A. will NEE
at St. Cloud. The Sank Centr'
School Faculty will play no menia
part in the meeting. Mr.. Falk is {
member of the executive commit
tee being the Vice President of the
Central Division of the Minnesota
Educational Association and Mis-
Larson is a member of the com
mittee on nominations; Mrs. Fall
has charge of the Foreign Lang
uage section. Miss Larson and MIR
Morgan are giving speeches in the
English and Industrial Arts Sec
tions, respectively.
Around the Junior High

ing this season. There are nineteer

changed to 7sc up, oats at &c decline
to an equal advance and provisions
ranging from &c setback to a rise of 7c.
At first, the corn market was domi-
mated by the fact that corn receipts
were of large volume both here and
likewise at Kansas City and Omaha.
Indications pointed to weather condi-
tions adverse to continued free move
ment of corn from rural sources and
it was pointed out that today's ar
rivals represented accumulations over
Christmas. Meanwhile new country
offerings remained small, and talk of
export business in prospect tended
further to offset influence of today's
heavy receipts.
Rallying power which developed in
the corn market was also associated
with trade gossip to the effect that
most grain dealers are now acting on
the basis that the latest government

figures as to corn production and to
cats yield are over estimated. 1t was
asserted that this is particularly the
case in many sections where the light
test weight and poor quality of the
feed grains have become most appar-
ent. The late advance in the corn
market was in the face of announce
ments that the corn visible supply had
increased 2,885,O0O bushels for the
week. The increase left the total 49,
214,000 bushels against 32,173,000
bushels a year ago.
Wheat and corn were mainly gov
crned by the action of corn values.
There was no export business of
consequence in wheat from North
America. On the other hand, deliv-
cries of wheat here on December con-
tracts today were small, milling in
quiry was fair and the United States
wheat visible supply showed 100000
bushels increase.
Provisions were easier early, but to-
ward the close firmed up, sympathiz-
ing with the advance of corn.

making a "U" turn after reaching new
low price records for the season, corn
scored a substantial advance today at
the last. All day, corn was much more
active than other grain and the late

JAPANESE WINS
AMATEUR TITLE
in WELTER CLASS
By United Press Leased Wire

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. kim
tara Usuda, student of Mciii Uni
vcrsity, Tokyo, Japan, today had
realized his ambition to possess a
far western boxing championship
and was the holder of the welter-
weight title.
TO win divisional honors, Usuda
had to box and slug his way to vic
tory through % rounds. His keen
est competition came last night dur
ing the finals of the far western
tourney when he defeated Charles
Anderson, of the Olympic club in Il
four round slugfest.
Usuda, together with other final
winners, is now entitled to represent
the far west in the national tourna-
ment to be held in Boston.
Tom Elliot, the gangling heavy
weight from the Hollywood Athletic
club, exhibited to a packed house
the same punch that the night be-
fore floored Milo Mallory, national
champion for the count and knock
ed out Douglas Simpson of the Los
Angeles Athletic club in the second
round.
The lightweight title went to ma
tional champion Francis Burke, of
the Olympic club, who easily won a
three round decision over fellow
club mate, Robert Andrews. Burke
was also far western champion.
Huerta Evans, Los Angeles A. c.,
and far western bantam champion,
retained his title by winning a de-
cision over Joe Alva, unattached of
Los Angeles.
Joe Golden, team mate of Evans,
won the featherweight title by de-
cision over Ralph johnson, Y. NJ. L.,
of San Francisco and John Jordan,
another Los Angeles boy, outpoint-
ed Pacific coast champion Manuel
Trevino, Hollywood A. c., to win
the flyweight title.
Martin Malone, Los Angeles A.
c., stopped James Mason, Olympic
club in the second round to carry
off middlewcight honors, while the
heavyweight crown went to Nick
Basik, Olympic club, on a foul in
the first round from Reno del Era,
Olympic club.

Los ANGELES, Nov. 2.-Young
Nationalist, little Filipino fighter
made game but futile effort here
last night to cap his farewell ap-
pearance against midget M k e
O'Dowd with victory.
Nationalist, who has announced
that he is going back to the Islands
for a visit after an absence of three
years, took on the tough little Irish
man in his "goodbye' bout at the
Olympic auditorium and received a
heavy lacing in eight of the 10
rounds.
Nationalist s swinging right jar
red O'Dowd, but the latter returned
the punch three fold.
In another 10 round match, Dario
Barron, Los Angeles Mexican, pulled
surprise. by beating Jackie Dugan,
recent arrival from Louisville. Du-
gan had big reputation, but Bar
ron floored him in the fifth for a
short count.
Jimmie Ryan, U. S. n, was too
tough for Billie Blake in the six
round special and Johnny Cruz beat
Johnny Fox in the four-round cur
tain raiser.
AS mark of respect to 'Spider
Kelly, San Francisco, well known
fight figure, who died yesterday in
Rochester, Mimi, the crowd stood

TIGER CREW TO
RACE HARVARD
NEXT SPRING
BY FRANK GETTY
United Press Sports Editor

NEW YORK, Nov. with Yale
oarsmen in a nearby shell, carry
ing on in the role of peacemakers
the $50 pound crews of Harvard
and Princeton will race at Derby,
Conn, in a regatta arranged for
May 10, 1928.
This is news Of tremendous import
ance to the college world and espec-
tally to alumni and undergraduates
of the two universities which sever
ed athletic relations year ago.
Strenuous denials came from Cam
bridge and Princeton that this race
next spring constitutes resumption
of those relations.
Those interested in maintaining
the breach can deny all day if they
please, but when the race is over,
the breach will have been closed by
a couple of miles of sporting en-
deavor.
A Harvard crew is going to row
! against Princeton crew on the
River Thames in May and any os-
trich like declarations to the con-
trary cannot hide the fact that the
peace makers at Yale have contrib
uted another good lick to the cause.
DR.. Charles Kennedy, chairman of
Princeton's board of athletics con
troll, wires emphatically that when
his school severed relations in Nov
cmber, 1926, the action was meant
to apply to dual contests only.
He points out that Princeton did
not withdraw from the intcrcollcg-
late track and field games in which
Harvard men were entered and so
forth.
The fact remains that since the
break, Yale men have been working
to restore friendship and bring
about renewal of athletic engage
ments between the Crimson and the
Tiger.

WALKER MAKES
SHORT WORK OF
MIKE M'TICUE

CHICAGO, Nov. mickey Walk
CT, who has possessed both the wei
ttrwcight and middlcwcight world $
boxing championships, today held
high hopes of gaining third title
the light heavyweight.
Mickcy's optimism followed an
easy victory which he scored over
the venerable Mike McTiguc here
last night.
Walker beat McTiguc to the floor
in the first round, using series
Of rights and lcfts to the body and
crashing right to the jaw.
Before McTigue was counted out
ne showed one of the gamest streaks
ever exhibited in the prize ring.
Victim of what might be termed IA
lneky punch, a right to the jaw as
the round opened, McTiguc was
eroggy from the start.
Walker put his right to the jaw
with several lefts to the head which
finally sent Mike to the floor for
the count of nine.
His eyes glazed, MeTiguc came
Walkers blows. However, he went
down again for the count of eight.
AS the referee started nine, Me-
Tigue grabbed rope, pulled him
self to standing posture and turn
I'd toward Mickey with sickly
sort of smile. He stood with his
arms down. The expression on his
face seemed to say: "I'm whipped
hut they won t count Mike McTigue
out until he S unconscious.
The last time McTigue got up
he didn't have chance in the
world to stand but the Irish nerve
wouldn t allow him to stay down.
AS result of the victory Walker
invades the light heavyweight class
and has announced he is after jim
NV Slattcry, chief claimant to the
title.
Walker previously held the wei
tcrweight title and is the present
holder of the middleweight cham
pionship.
