Month when that person is chosen

Selected by the members of the
Girls league council with the ap
proval of a faculty committee, the
(iirl of the Monlh is chosen on a
basis of character, scholarship,
personality and accumulative
achievements.
An orchid corsage from Umpqua
florists was an additional award
bestowed upon her at the assembly
presentation.
The Girls league, a high school
service organization, selected four
candidates for the honor and the
faculty committee picked the Girl
of the Month from the four.

clude: library club member i n
ninth, grade, class representative
in Girls league and Jobs daughter
Third Messenger, tenth grade Stu
dent body secretary, Tri-lli-Y
member and class representative
in Girls league, 11th grade; and
Job's Daughter Third Messenger
and recorder, president of Girls
league and Tri Ili-Y member in
this, her senior year.
Objectives Listed
The Girls league is an organiza
tion dedicated to the welfare of
all girls in the high school. lis
policies are guided by a council
consisting of Harhara West, presi
dent; Dixie Nay, vice-president;
Janet Foster, secretary: Jeanne
Rapp, treasusor; l.ois McKinney.
sergeant at arms; Sandy Owen and
Norma John, senior representatives-
Rarhara Peterson ami Fa

The adviser for the organization
I and Dean of girls at senior high,
I Miss Klizaheih Randall, points out
that the organization is primarily
constructive in nature. For ex
j ample, an Oct. 19 meeting of the
group featured a talk by Mrs. Ei
! leen Schoonover, a representative
I of the National Association of
I Beauticians, on the advantages and
opportunities in beauty culture as
a business.
tha necessary cooperation so that
your mission may be a triumph."
It carried .the same aignature.
Neither Gorsoline nor the "treas
urer" was identified.
Story at tha Battle
It was evidently trw that Presi
dent Truman was "the calmest
man in the place" when, awakened
by lire shots, he peered out a win
dow and saw dead and wounded
police and attackers before the
official residence.
Collazo, coming up Pennsylvania
avenue from the east, and Torres
ola, strolling from the west, pre
sumably had timed themsees to
arrive simultaneously in front of
Blair House.
Collazo passed the east sentry
box without attracting the notice
of Officer Joseph O. Davidson and
Secret Service Agent Floyd Bor
ing, who were on duty. He a p
proached within ten feet of the
entrance canopy. .
Private Birdzell stood at that
point, his back to Collazo. The
Puerto Rican drew hit gun, pulled
the trigger. The gun clicked but
did not go off, and Birdzell whirled
at the sound.
Collazo shot him in the knee
Birdzell stepped off the curb and
backed into Pennsylvania avenue,
blazing away. Before he fell in the
cartrackc. Davidson and Boring
had opened fire nd Collazo made a
dash for the front door.
The desperate man was already
on the steps before he was cut
down. He tumbled over, and lay
with blood atreaming from his
chest. A German-made "PH" pis
tol and one empty cartridge clip
slipped from his hand.
On the western side, in front of
the adjoining Blair-Lee mansion,
a similar drama was being played
j out. Torrescla suddenly opened
I fire on Coffelt and Downs, in the
opposite sentry box.
In the replying fire, nobody knew
I for certain whose bullet took ef
fect. But Torresola crumpled over
a small privet hedge bordering
Blair-I.ee House.
He lay curled in the hedge cor
ner, blood trickling from both
ears. He had been shot squarely
through the head. His Luger pistol
lay in the curve of his body.
Mr. Truman, who had taken
yesterday's events with unshaken
nerves, did not permit them or
the secret service to upset his
way of life.
As usual, he was out in the early
morning for a stroll.
