Broadcast Tells of

Junior high school children and
other radio listeners throughout the

Nicaragua as students of Langley

Junior high schools, where special
half-hour study courses were con-
Quoted on Nicaragua at the close
of the broadcast.
The dramatization presented by
the Langley pupils was entitled
"JuanitoS Birthday Party" and
served to show the similarity OF
interests existing between the peo-
ple of the Central American re-
public and the United States. An
American boy and girl whose father
is an Army officer stationed in
Managua, the capital city, attend
party of one of their Nicaraguan
schoolmates, and there they learn
that the youngsters play baseball
and tennis in addition to their ma
tional pastimes, that they have SINH
lar foods, such as pancakes, as well
As their own typical dishes, and
that even their names bear a close
resemblance to American names.
Appropriate music, including the
Nicaraguan national anthem and
the series theme, "Pan-Amerlcan
Hymn" inteySpersed the dramatic
episodes.
Faculty members who prepared
the presentation were Mrs. Ethel
Eanet and Mrs. Dorothy Bennett.

An incesSant warfare had always
waged between the white man and the
Chinaman. NO Chinks allowed" was
the slogan and many an individual
battle occurred, but at this period the
hatred for the pigtails had gradually
subsidized into a sullen acquiescence, and
fight was looked upon as a rare
event.
A fight took place between white
man and Chinese in the dry, dusty
street on a hot summers day in 1867
The principals, both of diminuitive
size and weight, became involved in
quarrel that ended in a real scrap.
This soon attracted a crowd of some

The start was at Virginia City,
through Nevada City to junction. four
miles below, nearly at the mouth Of the
gulch. The race course was the main
road, full of dust, rocks and gravel.
The foot racer was given a half-mile
start. The road was lined throughout
its entire length by thousands of men,
women and children. A thunderous
shout heralded the getaway - the
shouting of the men and the scream
ing of the women echoed and re-
echoed up and down the gulch and
over the distant hills. The nervy foot
racer maintained the lead with heart

efforts as they neared the goal, by the

Many dollars changed hands in these
contests and for thrills and excite
ment no other outdoor sport was COM
pared with it. The fun and thrills were
afforded by the rider who. in his quick
sprint to reach the pole and fierce
effort to make the turn as quickly as
possible and secure an even break
with his opponent, would often find
himself and his horse rolling over and
over in the dust.
Rich Purse Stake
One of the greatest races that ever
took place in Montana, for interest
and excitement, was pulled off in the
fall of 1867. The match was made in
Nevada City and a good purse was
hung up for the winner More money
is said to have changed hands in this
race than on any other like affair in
the state. A foot racer was pitted
against the rider of a mule and the
distance was 10 miles.
