Senior Class News

Friday our project charts, outlin-
ing the State and local government,
were due for Social Science.
Our French II Class finished their
daily lessons in their grammar books
and will now start their review of the
years work.
English Nv Classes are studying the
work of the poet Browning. He is
one of our favorite poets, as his in
vigorating poems seem refreshing to
us all-and we all need refreshing af-
ter this strenuous week of work.
Our Commercial Law Class has
finished the study of Corporations
and are now taking up Insurance and
Real Estate.
Junior Class News
In our American History Class, we
have been studying the United States
in the World War. Our American
History projects were due today
either a two thousand word theme or
a poster.
In English III, we have been study
ing All-American period. This per-
iod contains more poets than any 9TH
-er period in American Literature.
In Shorthand l, we are continuing
our study Of phrases.
We are studying constructions in
Geometry and they're about as deep
as the Atlantic Ocean.
Sophomore Class Activities
In English we are studying the
"'Tale of Two Cities" by Charles
Dickens. The class was inclined to
think it was a story of Minneapolis
and st. Paul but later we found out
it was London and Paris.
Biology finds us studying earth
worms. Much to the surprise of the
class we found the worms are good
for many more things than to try
and entice fish with.
Oh, yes! Modern History is now
the woe of the Sophomore Class.
There are usually ten pages, moth
ing less and sometimes more. We
hope there is no more war like the
last one because it's not only hard on
the people that fight but it's hard on
the people that have to study it af-
forwards.
These wars are terrible! Nothing
short of disastrous. If the Latin II
class come out of it the same again,
Caesars ghost will be responsible.
Direct authority always helps.
At Work With Our Commercial
Departments
This week we have completed our
course in alphabetizing.
In tipping we have been taking a
great many speed tests. Everyone is
trying to bring up his speed for the
end of the school year is drawing
nera.

discussing hydrocarbon and corbohy-
drates. Mr.. Christensen says he has
highly explosive class which is like
ly to ''blow up" due to an extensive
study of nitroglycerine. In labora-
tory the pupils rmented-molasses.
Physics
Radio and X-rays were studied in
physics last week. Simple receiving
sets were analysed and diagrams with
explanations were drawn up to or
ganize our knowledge of the subject
The class has now finished their
regular text book and will spend the
last three weeks on review.
If you've ever tried deciphering

JACOB TRIAL
is NEAR JURY
State, Defense Rest in
Murder Case.

Case of Miss Dorothy Jacob, %,
on trial for murder of her para
mour, Robert M Morrison, will go
to a criminal court jury probably
late this afternoon.
Both state and defense rested
their cases before noon, and final
argument will be limited to one and
one-half hours for. each side.
The pretty defendant was placed
on the stand for minor questioning,
and the state called five rebuttal
witnesses and impeached testimony
of w. w. Woods, a character wit
ness for Miss Jacob.
Miss Jacob was grilled on the
witness stand for almost four hours
Thursday afternoon. Under ques-
tioning of defense attorneys, she
pictured herself as a victim of Nor
riSon, declaring she was forced to
resort to an immoral life to support
him.
Sobbing, the red-haired girl told
of the quarrel in the apartment at
1909 North Pennsylvania street
where the killing resulted from a
drunken celebration of Morrison's
birthday, Aug. g.
Wildly reconstructing the crime,
she told how she held knife in
front of her when Morrison lunged
at her to choke her to death. The
knife plunged into Morrisons heart.
He died only a few hours later.
