Introducing Our
Own Students

This year we see in school a
larger number of new faces than
ever before. Who are these strang
ers? Where are they from? Let us
Introduce them. Here are three
students from Warland They have
had wide experience with other
schools; Whitefish, Boomers Ferry,
Kalispell, and Columbia Falls, but
they all agree that Libby is quite
all right.

Again comes the old condition of
history's repeating itself John
Echo, long known as master me-
chanical mind of Libby High, left
us last May and to our surprise, this
fall we discover that we have an
other airplane fan in our fresh and
green freshman class. Of course,
we aren't listening and watching for
Thomas Huchala to begin mysteri-
GUS buzzing and graceful swinging
of arms in English class, but we
surely are wishing him we'll with
his hobby. Welcome to our ranks
and good luck, Tommy.

Editorial

How are we to get rid OF the
crowded conditions in passing be-
tween classes? Would it relieve this
condition if each class that comes
out of certain room should have
a certain place to go as is done for
fire drill? Some argue that this
would not work out because some
pupils would have to go upstairs in
stead of downstairs.
Some suggest that when a pupil
comes out of a room on the right,
he continue on the right, and a
person from a room on the left
continue on the left. This they
claim would avoid confusion.
Perhaps neither one of these plans
will remedy this situation. Another
plan altogether different may have
to be devised. This situation should
be carefully considered before it car
be remedied.

form.
The most elaborate designs probably
start with elementary forms and are
gradually built up. In the polar areas
the air is sometimes filled with tiny
ice particles known as diamond
dust" which glitter in the sun while
at the same time being invisible in
dividually to the naked eye.
Under the microscope the particles
appear as simple plates of ice with
out elaborate branches. They prob
ably are condensed low to the ground
and are snow crystals in the earliest
state of development.
These crystals floating in the air
refract and reflect the light in many
forms of halos around the sun and
moon, according to scientists who have
made a study of snow in all its
phases and who have stepped out OF
their role of observers to wax en-
thusiastic on the subject.

Court today to nine indictments re-

Acting United States Attorney David

As a result Of the brothers alleged

The proteins in fish and man

ferent arrangements. When the
proteins are torn apart, the body Of

like a pile Of, bricks after the build
ing has been torn down.
Still, it Is pointed out In the re-

ACCUSED LAWYER
AWAITS DECISION
Bar Committees Evidence
Concluded in Case of
Henry D. Green.

Henry D. Green. attorney. today
awaited the decision of the Board OF
Police Court Judges on charges Of
misconduct brought by special
Grievance Committee of the District
Of Columbia Bar Association. His
hearing was completed late yester-
day. the judges reserving their de-
cision.
The respondent joined a group OF
one other lawyer and two bondsmen
who are awaiting a decision by the
board Of judges on similar charges
They were tried previously, since they
are all accused in one case. One
charge against Mr.. Green was dropped
yesterday,
While the proceedings have been
described as quasi-criminal, the most
severe punishment would be suspen-
sion or disbarment from practice in
Police Court.
Mr.. Green was charged in the
present case with having obtained 81
from Mrs. Anna Marie Jones, 1925
w street Sc, on the pretense of tax
ing care of a traffic case for her.
During cross examination Mr..
Green was asked why a receipt he
had given Mrs. Jones on the back
Of one of his cards designated the
money as collateral" when the re-
spondent had previously testified that
it was for fee. He said he was
unable to explain that point.
After Mr.. Green was subjected to
rigid examinations by members OF
the court, attorneys for the commit
tee rested and submitted the case
without argument. E. Russell Kelly,
counsel for Mr.. Green pleaded for
lenient consideration for his client,
who. he said. has practiced law for
81 yearS without q black mark, but
who has met many adversities during
the last few years.

Now the degree of freshness Of Q
fish can't be measured by the time
which has elapsed since 1t was

ress Of the bacteria in splitting up

measured, and usually has been in

termining the stage Of the first, one
can estimate how soon the second
will set in, and hence how long the
fish can be expected to keep.
Experiments In the use Of ultra
violet rays to keep fish from spoil
ing also were demonstrated. The
effect Of these rays is to kill the
bacteria on the outside of the fish
and hence delay the breaking down
process in the proteins. It is also
likely. 1t was stressed, that the
vitamin c content Of the fish may
be increased by this sort Of radia-
ton.

PRESIDENT SILENT
ON D. c. PROJECTS
Airport and Jefferson Memo.
rial Are Responsibilities
of Congress, He Says.

President Roosevelt today laid re-
sponsibility on Congress for providing
Washington with an adequate airport
and a suitable memorial to Thomas
Jefferson.
This was the impression he gave
when questioned at his morning press
conference. He said he hoped WASH
ington would get an airport and that
the proposed Jefferson Memorial would
be provided, but that at this time he
preferred not to express his personal
views as to details.
The President said he has given his
views to members of Congress regard
ing both projects, but added that it
Is matter for Congress to determine.
The President, in answer to ques-
tions about the District slum clear
ance program, said that, too. was q
question that may require congress
sional action. He said there is no
question about the need for slum clear
ance In Washington.
The slum clearance program for the
city has been carefully worked out for
q two-year period and calls for an
expenditure Of about $1,000, 900. Under
the new Housing Authority Act the
ALLEGATION Of this money can be made
only by direction Of the President.
Mr. Roosevelt has been studying the
subject to determine If legislation
actually IS needed to provide WASH
ington with sufficient money. It is
expected the President will shortly
announce . decision regarding the
question Of slum clearance for the
District. which announcement will re-
veal the policy he will follow In the
future in dealing with this subject.
