School Notes
GRADE SCHOOL

At a Students Council held last
week, the grade boys organized to
take care of the grass plots on the
school grounds. A report of the
meeting follows:
Save The Terrace
We had a club meeting Monday
afternoon at 2:30. We had this
meeting to elect some officers to
keep the children off the terrace.
The terraces of the school have
been run over so much that they
look terrable.
Some of the members at the
meeting were Leon Wies, Evan
Lloyd, Bert McCay and Harry Sund-
berg from the fifth and sixth
grades. Charles Olsen, Kenneth Do
Ian, Harry Bradley Billy Lloyd,
Vernon Wies, Tiny Ferguson, Billy
White and Billy Hooker from the
lower grades.
Leon Wies is at the head of our
club. The names of the officers
elected are Billy White, Billy Hook
er. Harry Sundberg and Bert Nc
Cay. We decided to have these
laws:
l. Keep off the Terrace. (This in
cludes all the grass planted surface
on the school grounds.)
2. If you get on them over once
you shall be sent into your teacher
and given work to do.
8. Keep all sleds off the Terrace.
4. If you talk back to the officers
you will get double work.
5. If they get sent in five times
you will have to stay in all reces
for one week

The serving of hot soup or some
other hot dish to supplement the
lunch which many of the children
carry to school has met with such
favor that it is still being contin-
ued. Mrs. McDade was in charge
last week and Miss Eide this week.
The small charge made the children
is sufficient to take care of the
cost and the experiment has proved
quite worth while.

POLO ADOPTED
BY TROJANS

LOS ANGELES, Oct. TO- U.R =
The University of Southern Cali
fornia will elevate polo to its list
OF recognized intercollegiate sports,
Willis o. Hunter, athletic director,
announced today.
Although the sport HAD been
played by Trojan teams the past
two years, it had never been rank
eel on the official calendar
It's recognition was inspired to a
great extent by the interest of Pre-
sident Rufus B. Won KleinSmid,
who established the game at the
University of Arizona when he was
president of that institution.
Although no schedule was an
nounced, the Trojans are expected
to match games with Stanford, Arr
IONA and Boyola. Lional Pedley,
brother of Eric Pedley, well known
International poloist, will coach the
sport, Hunter said.

SOUTH AFRICAN
Gets VERDICT.
By JACK CUDDY
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Oct. 10.-The in
door boxing season got off to a
shaky start last night at Madison
Square garden, central emporium of
the leather trading industry, when
the opening show resulted in fin
ancial flop and an unpopular de-
ciSion.
Donald Dinnie McCorkindale,
heralded in advance cables as the
South African Lion, was uncaged
for the first time on American
shores against Patsy Perroni, Cleve-
lands heavyweight, in the main
event Perroni plugged Donald SO
hard and SO often that Referee
Patsy Haley felt sorry for McCork-
indale and handed him the 10-round
decision.
Haley bestowed this present afte-'
the two judges disagreed on the
verdict Judge Billy Jacobs was SO
taken aback at seeing a British
heavyweight in an upright, anti
Scott position at the end of bout
that he voted for McCorkindale, and
the breach of British heavyweight
tradition obtained a draw from
Judge Abe Goldberg.
The 1000 cash customers, who
paid about $1,000, roared disap-
proval. Most of the boxing writer's,
who had already started Jyping
bulletins telling of Perroni's victory,
were taken aback.
This questionable victory won for
the South American the hollow hon.
or of meeting Jack Sharkey at the
garden October 81.
McCorkindale put up much bet
ter fight than expected against
Perroni who had entered the ring
2 to l favorite. The United Press
score sheet gave Perroni five rounds,
McCorkindale four and one even.

CURTAILMENTS
IN EDUCATION

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. (U.P) -
Curtailment of public education,
with a resultant closing of schools
and dismissal of teachers was de-
nounced in resolutions adopted to-
day by the American Federation of

The federation at its 53rd annual
convention approved series of
resolutions condemning the slash
ing of appropriations for free pub
lie education. A program for pro-
tecting education from the kinder
garten through the universities was
approved and the federation was
pledged to call upon federal, state
and local governments to carry
through an improved schedule of
education.
The federation also went on rec
ord in support of the right of
teachers to organize and against
any discrimination against married
women teachers.
The convention will convene to-
night in a special session to hear
a speech by Hugh S. johnson, re-
covery administrator. The dele
gates have been told that the
speech will be one of the most i'm
portant of the convention.
Edward A. Hayes, newly elected
commander of the American Le-
gion, will address the convention
Friday.
Women delegates will be receiv-
ed by Mrs. Roosevelt at the White
House.

Arabs are out this week determined

ley j. C.-Central j. C. affray sched
uled for Saturday night, October
Il. on the local gridiron.
Although the j. c. men found
that they lacked passing defense
as we'll as passing attack in the
last game, they did discover that
they possess an almost inpenetrable
line. With this encouragement and
the addition of several new recruits,
the entire Arab team and student
body are looking forward to the big
game coming up this weekend.
Cleo Edgar, former high school
star and a versatile lineman, is eX-
pected to report for practice tonight
Cleo was a dependable player in
high school and will be a great help
on the j. 9. team.
David Doss, a backfield player OF
merit. reported last night. His pre-
Yious experience in the backfield
should make him a valuable man on
the Arab team.
Richard Hammer, former Central
high school star Is expected out ear
~ this week. Pans Will remember
Hammers sensational end runs and
his line smashing ability.
With these players in addition TO
the hard working men that have
been practlcing. the Arabs now have
every reason TO be optimistic over
the remainder OF this football sea-
son.
Encouraged By the fine spirit and
hard work Of the football team, the
entire J. G. student body has deyel-
oped a spirit Of enthusiasm and CO.

side. But the Californian, his head
buzzing with the roar of the crowd,
allowed the U. S. L. T. A. to sell
him on a trip to the South Seas.
Before he got back his Wimbledon
championship was gone. And short
ly his American title followed.
AS result his box office lure
was considerably diminished. Til
den refused to divulge what salary
Vines would draw, but you may rest
assured it will be pin money COM
pared to what he could have de-
lmanded-and got-h year or so
ago.
Jones Smart
The smartest of the amateurs was
Jones, the Atlanta barrister and
the greatest golfer who ever nailed
one down the fairway. Mr.. Jones
quit when ne was red-hot, just at
ter he had scored a grand slam by
winning the English and American
open and amateur championships
He didn't wait another year and
run the risk of getting bumped off,
but moved in and grabbed it up by
the fistful when the grabbing was
good
Whatever Tilden pays Vines, the
Californian s worth it. He s hot
and cold player, yes, but on the
days he's right he can chase any
other tennis player in the world off
the court. If he plays your town
go get a look at him, if only to
see him hit that forehand, or that
overhead kill of his. They re hon.
eys, and something to see.
If Vines RECEIVERS his 1892 form
I wonder what Tilden will use for
opposition. Bill could give him
run for a set, but after that would
fold up like a time table. ELY
could play his worst game and still
make Bruce Barnes look like
monkey. So, unless that high rank
ing amateur, Bill talks so mysteri-
ously about is Fred Perry or Jack
Crawford, the customers may have
to be content with seeing Vines
play solo.
Vines departure from the anna
teur field scrambles the already
scrambled American Davis cup sit
uation some more. Don't be sur
prised if you see Dwight Davis.
himself, out there next year. But
that's good for another story.

In the future he will swing his
