him speak
Proudly eXclaiming that recovery
efforts along monetary lines had
closed the gap between what the
farmer had to sell and what he had

members Of the Coolidge I'm
ion high school are greatly
handicapped. The build
ings now being occupied by
students include the Wo-
mans club house, Commun-
it's church. Legion. hall and

makes matters worse. The
football suits have not yet
arrived. The Coolidge school
has a determination TO be

HAIRCUTTING UNPOPU-

Some Freshmen evidently
didn't find their initiation,
in the form of free hair cuts,
so pleasant. At any rate,
they put up a fight and as a

third and even fourth hair
cuts. The incoming students.
in an attempt to ward off
the would-be BARRIERS, even
clipped the hair of some of
