The H. C. club members are meeting today at 3:30 o'clock in room 219, to make further plana for the Classicalia. Working on the theory that three boys are equal to one man, Theron Jost, Jake Reynolds and Lewis Iverson are taking Coach Kapple's geometry classes this week. CHEMISTRY CONTEST.

TljJe" crowd that attended the j band concert Wednesday night j was not large but encouraging- encouraging because it represented ! the same people who heard the j orchestra and glee club two weeks ago. The next concert will be pre- sented by the combined glee clubs, orchestra and soloists on Wednesday evening, March 19. Lester G. Hinchcliff, the direc­tor, is thinking seriously of making an effort to get the or­chestras of the junior high schools to unite with the high school or­chestra in a semi-monthly prac- ! tice, in order to prepare for a grand musical festival in the spring. He awaits the approval . and co-operation of Supervisor Mark Robinson in the plan. "GONE TO GAME." f The high school teachers were pretty much disturbed Wednesday ! by the absence of a number of i students who were reported "gone to the game." As the game was not called until 6 o'clock the teachers feel that it was absolutely unnecessary for students to absent themselves from school. No student can succeed in school when -irregular in attendance or indifferent to attendance. High school teachers are very much interested in athletics, but not to the neglect of regular school work. FOR BULL BRAINS. At the beginning of the present term in the high schools of New York City pupils who were rated the lowest 20 per cent in ability were not permitted to take mathe­matics or a foreign language. They were required to take biology or general science or both, or one of these subjects in con­nection with typewriting or shop work. District Superintendent John L. Tildsley, in discussing this mat­ter, said: "We want to stop giving the lower 20 per cent of the pupils what they cannot learn and give them what they can learn." Naturally the students of the high school were very much elated today over the success of the first game "at the . tournament. One hundred arid fifty students wit- nessed the game and twice that many will be present tonight jto ! j root forthe team.
