districts, extempore speaking contests in Class A schools will be arranged for sometime during the latter part of March. The state contest for all district students in Class A schools must be held on March 31 or April 1.
The classification of schools, based on the enrollment in the senior high school, remains the same as last year—Class A including all schools with an enrollment of more than 500, Class B the schools with an enrolment between 201 and 500, and Class C those with an enrolment of less than 200. However a change was smoade this year to permit four-year high schools to exclude the freshman class in reporting the enrolments, providing that freshman students are not permitted to take part in the inerscholastic debates. This arrangement is optional for each individual school and affects only the current year. To Ski.
Tary From three to six
The number of entries for the tournament in each class in the several districts varies from three to six. In those districts in which there were less than three schools entered in any district, the schools of one class were widely scattered and more conveniently located with respect to the tournaments in adjacent districts, they have been transferred to other districts. As a result, there are only five debate tournaments for Class A schools in the entire twelve districts, nine for Class C schools and eleven for Class B.
With the exception of a few minor gadgets, the new 27 inch reflecting telescope at the University is finished and ready for service.
The winners in these district tournament and in the extempire speech contests for the Class B and C schools will meet at the University of Wisconsin on Friday, 25 in the final tournaments and contests for the state championships.

★ Men Who Robbed Investment Company of $725 Caught in Kansas City
Quick thinking and an alert eye aided Harold Allen, 31, proprietor of the Allen Press in giving to police information which in 13 hours led to the arrest of Mr. Allen on Saturday night robbed the Securities Investment company of $725.
The two men, Ion Cutting and James Owen both of Kansas City, Mo., parked their car across the street from the securities company near noon. About 3 p.m., Claude Shook, employee at the Allen Press, noticed something suspicious about the car, which kept starting its engine at frequent intervals, and told Allen.
Allen went out on the street, casually memorized the car's license number, Missouri, 1938, 655-455, and noted that the car was either a Dodge or Plymouth. 1938 model, tan in color. After closing the print shop at 6 o'clock, Allen and his brother, Don, sat in their car, watched one of the men enter the office of the Securities Investment company, and a moment later saw the car after the car Alem had been watching.
Shortly after midnight, the car was picked up, still driven by Cutting, and Owens was soon apre-
sented. He was out for over $300 of the loot was献给
Allen was graduated from the University in 1931 with a bachelor of arts degree and went to Germany as an exchange scholar the following year. He is a member of Phi Beta Kappa.

Always Best for Less!

Doctor Storer and several other prominent astronomers believe the lens to be one of the finest pieces of work that has been done in the United States. Plans are now being made to take the telescope formation of the new telescope sometime in February, Doctor Storer said today.

"GOSH, how can you sell so fine a tie for only $1?" That's what men ask of women. Some have Arrow ties for the first time. And they ask the same question after they've worn the tie for months — for Arrows are hard to find and have wrinkle-resistant linings. $1 and $1.50.
