Members of the cast of the two plays to be given by the Business High School are showing enthusiasm in the development of the production. Paul Graves, as Baptista, the father, in “The Taming of the Shrew.” is a surprise. He displays a polse and dis- cretion of interpretation. along with an ability for tone production, which is more than satisfying. Michael Durso, as Grumeo, gives ghtful glimpses of the servant to Petruchio as he ambles and mimics with ever-increasing drollery through his parts. Friday afternoon the Friendship Club of Busine at the monthly T WG A, A Jittle vaudeviile show was pre- sented by members of the Amikeco following the supper. The program consisted of several musical numbers by Dorothy Llliott, Helen Murphy, Doris Schuiz, Mary Sherman and Mar- garet McCloskey; folk and fancy Amikeco was host club supper at the dances by Agnes Lynch and Gertrude | { Ruzika, and humorous recitations by Anna Clavke and Virginia Staub.

A special meeting of the newly elected committee was held Friday evening, when a number of advisers were in- vited to be present to help plan fu- ture work of the assoclation. Among the guests were Chief Justice and Mrs. Walter I McCoy, Mr. and Mrs. Neyle Colquitt, Dr. and Mrs. Kiernan and Mr. and Mrs. Lester Freeman. The future of the Americanization Bulletin, the School paper, was dis- cussed. It is hoped this paper may develop into a natlonal organ for American news. This sudgestion came from the commissioner of natu- ralization, Raymond Crist. Christian_ A. Herter, assistant to Secretary Hoover, met with the ad- vanced students of the Americaniza- tion School Tuesday evening and gave a lecture on the present condi- tions in Russia. The speaker was introduced by Chief Justice W. L Mc- Coy. After the short lecture the meeting was opened for questions. Students recently from Russia were eager to know of conditions there. In asking questions facts were brought forth showing the hardships that had been endured before the, questioners left their native land. An exhibit will be 6pened this aft- ernoon at the Art Center of the hand- 'work of students of the Americaniza- tion School. Several paintings ot Nicholl Kobtzeff, Russian artist, will be shown.

The score was 28 to 10. _Saturday night the jteam from the Virginla State Normal School at Fredericksburg will play |a return game in the home gymna- {sium.

Nannie Heizer and Estelle Gill- chrest won the prizes for the best submitted. At a faculty meeting Wednesday afternoon Miss Elizabeth Hummer gave a report on the superintendents’ convention of the National Education Association, which she recently at- tended in Cleveland. Wednesday afternoon Miss Alberta Walker of the faculty addressed the teachers of the fifth, sixth, seventh and elghth grades of Miss .Hendley's division on the subject of reading. Senlor students visited the Soldlers' Home Wednesday, where lessons on the cow and the dairy were given by the Misses Trainham, Dice, Fryer and Taff. Through the kindness of the Rotary Club the trip was made by bus. It will be a trip long remem- bered, due to the ice sheet covering trees, bushes and fences. A cordial iInvitation is extended to kindergarten teachers and parents in- terested in kindergarten work to visit the exhibit of Miss McKnew's classes. Tt is the regular work of the academic classes, illustrating handwork that can be taught to chil- dren. Paper hats, parasols, valen- tines, snowflakes, ropes, dolis made from’ stockings, a farmhouse and a house with its garden and playground are but a part of the exhibit, largely made from waste material, ARMSTRONG MANUAL TRAIN- ING SCHOOL. By defeating Dunbar Thursday on the basket ball court with a score of 29 to 16, Armstrong again demon- strated superiority and revealed that brand of game which has carried her far beyond her rivals In the Atlantic League. One more game remains with Baltimore High, but its result can in no way affect Armstrong’s chances to win the championship. Ellis and Harry Turner were largely responsible for its victory over the wearers of the red and black. Earlier in the week, by a score of 34 to 19, Armstrong turned the tables on its former victorious opponent, the Philadelphia Y. M. C. A. The visiting basketers had a splendid sys- tem of attack which often carried them into dangerous positions, but inability to shoot goals left them on i the short end of the score. Plans are being formulated by the military committee to carry off again the white flag at the annual competi- tive drill. Drawings vesterday re- sulted in the following assignments: Capt. Walker (Mr. Murray); Capt. monies whereby First Sergt. Carter (Lieut. Coleman): Capt. Wooton (Mr. Mattingly); Capt, Jackson (Lieut. Ferguson). These gentlemen will as- sist from now on in the special phases of instruction connected with the yearly competition. Asst. Supt. G. C. Wilkinson paid a special visit to the band last week and was present at the official cere- monies whereby First Serget Carter was elevated to the commissioned grade. He expressed himself as much pleased with the progress of the band a.l”well as the appearance of the bat- talion. Battery candidates reported for a conference early this week and some promising material appeared. The mainstay of the boxmen will, of course, be the veteran Sam Lacy, who fs away out front of anything in interscholastic circles as a hurler. With Dorsey on the receiving end this combination will prove a tough one to beat. Howard and Earl McDowell ought to furnish a capable southpaw to alternate with Lacy. Hope, Capt. Ellis, Harry Turner and Temple_ar first ‘choice for inflelders, with Wil liam Brice having the call for one of the outfleld positions. Stewart, -the big right-hander, has left school and his wonderful flelding wiil be missed s well as his unusual pitching abil- y. Should he return the chances for again capturing the base ball cham- pionship will be greatly increased. DUNBAR HIGH SCHOOL. The Science Club of Dunbar Hi, School, Armstrong Manual Schoolflafi‘& Shaw Junior High School held its opening meeting Wednesday in the assembly hall of Dunbar High School. A radio motion picture, entitled “The Audlon.” was exhibited, and Prof. Louls D.
