FNOSH INITIATION STARTS

, On October IS, Alaska Day, the Sophomore Class decided to start the initiation of the Freshmen for this year. It began by having the Fresh
 men stand up on the platform in the front of the assembly and sing
 Alaska, My Alaska" This was fol- lowed by three-minute speech from each one. Ann Everson gave one on
 holding a boy friend and Marion
 Nussbaumer on the ups and downs of the saw mill business. Harry Ol- son told about the art of singing and why he liked it. He also had to fur nish a sample. Hall Ferguson talked on a duck hunters paradise. While he was giving it he made some re- marks about Bert More and Jim Dolan and for this he received good, hard swats with yard sticks from each of the boys. The speeches went on with Elliott Bradford who told how he keeps his hands so clean. Dick Johnson gave a talk on how to drive new car, Miriam Grant on fishing without a gaff hook, Alice Harvie on why she spells her last name as she does. Albert Rinehart told how to make oatmeal cookies, but it sounded little radical Bern ard Acton gave speech on what he thought of the initiation and then he was asked to lead the rest of the Freshmen in giving nine cheers for the high school. This being done, school was dismissed

COAST GUARD CUTTER SEEKS
 CREW OF CAPsIZED MAIL BOAT

The mail boat Good Hope, com manded by Captain Henry Ivanoff, which two weeks ago rescued two Russian scientists who were ship wrecked on Little Diomede island in Boring strait, has been found capsiz- ed off the shoals eight miles north of Cape Prince of Wales.
 No trace of the officers, crew or passengers could be found, although Eskimos reported that they had found a smashed life boat and mail bags on the beach in the vicinity of the wreck
 The coast guard cutter Northland is searching the vicinity of the mis- hap in the hope of finding survivors.
 The Good Hope was making it's last trip of the season out of Kotze- bue. It is believed that the motor stalled and storm carried the craft onto the shoals where it was wrecked.

IMPROVEMENT

The pencil sharpener in the as- sembly room, which has been back wards the past few weeks, has been very hard to operate The only ones that could get much work out of it were Bill Grant and Herbert Bjorge because they are left handed, The rest of us had to nearly stand on our heads to work 1t. Luckily it has been recently changed. We will now give Bill and Herbert a chance to stand on their heads.

TNITIATION-1933

Ten little children stood up front to-day,
 And slowly spent three minutes each in his own way, They were ten green, green fresh men, Talking monotonously to classmen Besides this they all sang a song And thank goodness, it wasn' long. The dumb ones love initiation But I find no gaod reason. though I look through all creation. Rut l had better shut right up, And likewise sit right up. For next year will be my turn, And initiation Is painful, too, learn.
 The first four victims were Dick, Alice, Miriam, and Nick. And next an the stand Were Bernard, Harry, and Ann. The reXt few were Hall, Elliott, Albert, and I guess
 th.at's all.
 Now what do you think of them, dear friends? Perhaps we can tell when all this ends.

STOP EVICTION
Iowa Farmers Guard Home
to Keep Sheriff From
Evicting Tenant

LeMars, Iowa, April 21.-An-
other bitter chapter in the long
struggle of the farmer to stay OIL
his farm is approaching a climaz
at the pleasant Durbalnd farm, To-
Gated just outside of Strubble
Iowa.
The Durbands who look back for
three generations to tillers of the
soil are determined to hold their
well kept homestead. Aiding them
are neighboring farmers who have
guarded the place since Tuesday to
prevent the sheriff from evicting
the Durbahds.
Always several farmers stay at
their self-chosen posts. At chore-
time some leave to hurry ONE,
and when they return others leave
but most of them come back to
take their turn at the wacth.
Mr.. Becker of LeMars is oppos-
ing the Durband's title to the 700
acre farm and the Iowa court has
upheld her claim. However, the
Durbands are aappealing the de-
cision and in the meantime have
put in a great part of the crop for
next year.
The Farm Holiday Association
of Plymouth county has sent a
telegram to Governor Clyde Her
ring at Des Moines, protesting the
eviction.

SMALL BANKS ARE
SUNK In HOLIDAY
Roosevelt Administration
Let Small Banks Close
to Save Big Ones

The Roosevelt Bank holiday
cleaned out the small banks Of the
country, according to the figures
which have just been made public
by the Federal Reserve Board.
Seventy-five per cert of the
banks which did not open were
banks which were not members of
the Federal Reserve system or
1900 out of total of 5000 banks
either did rot open or opened only
under severe restrictions.
The non-member banks are
chiefly the smaller banks in the
country.
Among the member banks the
smaller ones also were the ones to
be closed by the holiday. While
the barks which were completely
closed or have opened up partially
were 20 per cent of the total
banks in the Federal Reserve svs-
tenn, they had only ten per cent
of the deposits; showing that the
big banks came through, with the
aid of the Roosevelt administra-
ton, ard the smaller banks were
allowed to go to the wall.
