NIGHT SCHOOL ATTENDANGE IS NEARING LIMIT Enrollment in Several Class- es Possible, Up to Next Tuesday Night school, being conducted in the Juneau High School Building is now well under way. In the Com- mercial classes only elementary and advanced shortland and elementary and advanced typing is being taught. | These classes meet edch Tuesday *and Thursday from 7 to 8 p. m. and! 8 to 9 p. m. There is still room in the commercial classes for new members, and it is still not too late to enroll. Positively ne new i members will be accepted after next| Tuesday evening. There is an. even forty enrolled in the commercial groups. The class in short story writing, which consists of twelye students, | will meet for their third lesson Tues- day night. This class, meets only once a week, each Tuesday, and s still open to new members until next Tuesday only. The cooking class is again prov- !ing to be the popular class with six- teen students. This class meets on | Tuesday nights and has openings| jfor two more students only as not more than eighteen will be taught. The knitting class, under the di- rection of Mrs. Holmquist, is pro- gressing nicely but, although the group will definitely continue, sev- eral more students to make it in- | teresting are needed. | Carpentry is also going to con- Itinue but really needs about five more men to make a good class. At present only seven have enrolled and hence, there are vacancies for five more. The class will continue regardless of the number. The Community Orchestra, meet- ing only on Tuesdays, is making a splendid showing. Twenty-four mu- sicians are enrolled and more are welcome. With forty in the Commercial group, forty in the Vocational group and twenty-four in the music group, there is a total of one hundred four adult students now attending night school classes. In addition to this group of stud- ents there are now seven teams, members of the City League, prac-| ticing four nights per week in the High School gym. On the seven teams are a total young men players. This brings the night enrollment to one hundred| |necessary adjustments {ment. i | of ninety- O'Ie‘m their continuance than was any- I DIESELS MAY ~ SHIFT POWER . SOURCES NOW C. L.

We believe that the gas- oline engine has a definite place in the field of transportation.” Mr. Cummins bases his guess| about the future of the Diesel en- gine in the automotive field on the ipresent stage of the industry. “As| ’yet he says, “we have not found how to make them as inexpensively! as gasoline engines can be made.! We are contenting ourselves with( predicting that in the field of pas- senger cars they will take over enly those tasks where the per-mile cost {is of major importance. | : “As for the real utility jobs of \passenger and freight transporta-, tion, I believe we shall have this al- most entirely Diesel-powered with-| lin a very few years. The trucks| which haul freight on the roads are already proving the economy of Diesel engines. | “As I see it,” he continues, “the biggest field for Diesels right now is in railroad use. While Diesel engines on the highways can ruin| the steam railroads, Diesels on the rails are the one possible salvation {of privately-owned railroads in the United States.
