dam.
The 200 ~pheasants turned loose in
the RichIand township area in the

director. '+'
For the meeting between the de-
Tending co-champions, Coach Ken
Mast's Bluffton eleven will carry a
one-and-one record into the fray,
while F~indlay's Oilers are indicated
in one start so far this fall.
Findlay's lone win, however, was
an impressive one, for the Hancock
county outfit last Saturday night up
set heavily favored Akron university
in capturing a z to 6 decision. 1t
was the first time in history that
Findlay has beaten the Zippers.
Findlay scored on a 55-yard pass
play, and the successful try for point
after touchdown proved the margin
of victory.
Coach Mast's proteges will go into
the Findlay game smarting under the
sting of a 81 to 0 setback administer
ed last Saturday night at Tiffin by
Heidelberg's Student Princes.
Heidelberg's Paul Yackey, who was
the nations leading scorer last fall,
caught two touchdown passes against
the Beavers. Bob Winterburn scored
two other six-pointers on runs, and
Nick LaTessa tailed the other on a
completed pass.
Bluffton's deepest penetration into
Heidelberg territory came in the
fourth stanza when the Beavers drove
to the Princes 10-yard stripe, but
lost the ball when a fourth-down
pass went astray.

Everett Sutermeister's committee
on finances and related matters came
up with a suggestion that the pool

School Term S+or+s WiTh Five Glasses Quorfered En Church Easements

School Superintendent Carl R. Carlson has stated several times in recent weeks that he would not hazard a guess as to the probable school enrolment this year.
 On Friday, after the first week of school, enrolment stood at 445. There are q number of chil- dren who have not enrolled yet for one reason Or another-s5me families have not returned from summer trips, and a few boys are still moose hunting. A great CT increase comes in the spring of the year.
 Present enrolment is 5 short of that on the fast day of school last May, but that number will probably be picked up before next May The greatest surprise occurred in the sophomore class. Instead of the 46 expected, only 23 students showed up on Tues day. What has become of the sophomores, no one seems to know.
 Enrolment by classes is as fol lows:
 First grade 46, second grade 37, third grade 47, fourth grade 50, fifth grade B, sixth grade Al, seventh grade 38, and eighth grade 29, making total in ele- mentary grades $40.
 High school: ninth grade A., tenth grade 23, eleventh grade 21, and twelfth grade IT, for total of 105 Q5 less than was eX- pected), and a total for the en- tire school of 445 With anneXa- tion of the BayVieW school the total number will increase.
 At present one section of the second grade IS housed Tn the Methodist Church basement, as is also a section of the third grade. Part of the fifth grade fs in the Lutheran Church base nent, but after November l, the class will have to be moved as the space is rented as of that time, There is sectiQi2 of 'A> sixth grade in the EpiscopaI Church basement and room has to be found for a section of the fourth grad2 somewhere in town by Monday of next week.
 Annexation of tie BayvicW school will take care of three of the five grades now outside the school building. It is costing the city S6O0O per year to house these outside classes.
