School Orchestra
 5 To Be Organized

It has been decided by the Senior class to organize a high school orchestra, using purely school talent Although no defi- mite plans have been made as yet, the enthusiasm shown by many of the students has con- vinced the sponsors of the idea that an orchestra will be a reality in the near future. It is felt that it will be finan- cially impossible to hold enter tainments more than three or four times a year, but it is plan ned to work up the orchestra in the intervening time to a high point of perfection.
 In the past, High school or chestra has been given very lit tie thought by the students, but now that the subject has been brought up, both students and faculty unite in boosting the new project along.

Freeport recently looking for jobs.
They fell in with William Stubbe, 81,
Of Rock Grove, ILL.,, and La Verne
Moore, n, mailing room employe at
the Rawleigh plant. The Schultz:
brothers said Moore suggested a bit
Of easy money by kidnapping TreWl-

AS the plan unfolded, the former
under cover men returned to La Sale,
informed Sheriff Weller Of the con-
spiracy and the sheriff invoked the
aid Of intelligence men from Chicago
federal offices and also told Trevil-
liam, who agreed to submit to kidnap-

that the case would be placed in the
state courts due to the uncertainty
existing as to whether or not the
