Washington Jane Class to Entertain Graduates-Elect Holiday Affaire of Social Nature Are Many Vic tory In Interacholastlc Debate Stira School Spirit .evra Notes. BT GERTRUDE MAY. WHEN school closed Thursday for the holidays, book cares were for gotten apparently by both teacher and student, and everywhere about the school familiar voices could be heard extending Christmas and New Year's greetings. Many social affairs have been planned by the high school and college folk, so that the holiday vaca tion will be filled with social events. One affair that Is being looked for ward to by the high school and college students is the Inter-Educational Krollque at Christensen's Hall on the night of December 28. Many of the students have expressed their inten tions of attending, so the affair will undoubtedly be one of the most suc cessful of the season. Somo ex-Washington students who are on the com mittee are Johnny Beckett and Alberta Cavender. The patrons and patronesses will be President and Mrs. P. L. Camp bell, of the University of Oregon; Judge and Mrs. C. N. Gantenbein, and Mr. and .Mrs. J. J. Sheehy. Although Monday morning assem blies are seldom permitted, one was called last week for the purpose of creating interest in the interscholastic debate, an event which took placo Tuesday evening. Some very good talks were given by Jack Benfiel. Claude Frohn and Holt Ganong. The boys urged all to turn out to the debate, and the students responded well, as there was a good representation at both Jefferson and Washington. Wash ington won at each place and thereby; won the Kerr cup. The February seniors are looking forward with great anticipation to the eventful night of December 29, when the June 'lti class will entertain them with a dinner-dance at the Rose City Park clubhouse. The seniors are en thusiastic over the way the June class is to entertain them. The letter men of Washington have planned a dance for the ex-letter men of Washington on Tuesday night, De cember 2S. The dance will be con ducted in the school gymnasium, and an enjoyable time is anticipated, for Washington will have the pleasure of extending a hearty welcome to her former heroes. s Much interest was created Wednes day morning when Principal Herdman announced that a baskethall game was to be played in the school gymnasium on Thursday between some of the members of the faculty and the letter men. A large number of students hur riedly secured tickets for the game and anxiously awaited the arrival of Thursday afternoon. If Washington ever was proud, it is now. Since Tuesday night the chief topic around the school hits been the Interscholastic debate. Washington de baters worked hard for weeks and weeks on the debate, but when they came home with the laurels they felt repaid. The question was, "Resolved. That the Monroe Doctrine should be abandoned." Washington affirmative team, consisting of Russell Ballard, Melville Pugh and Eugene Vincent, re mained at home, while the negative team, made up by George Walker, Eertrand Woods and Tom Telts. went to Jefferson. Both teams won the de cision by a vote of 2-1. While Wash ington was victorious she appreciates the good work done by Jefferson, and extends much credit to the Jefferson boys. Washington is now the permanent owner of the Kerr cup, having won the cup three consecutive times. Mathew Linnehan was the coach for the debaters. Wednesday afternoon the members of the February 'IS class were guests of the manager of the Empress The ater at the matinee. a Last week Kenneth Ritchie, Lens pho tographer, was kept busy protograph ing the members of the different so cieties. The pictures are to be used in the class issue of the Lens. The Rostrum Club conducted its Christmas programme on tuesaay ot the past week. Christmas recitations were given iy narriei. iiueuianoi, Elizabeth Robinson and Antonia Llest. Harold Morrow gave an interesting de scription of a Holland Christmas. There was a debate. "Resolved, That a drum affords more amusement than a doll." The decision was in favor of the af firmative. A distribution of gifts and candy closed the programme. . . The members of the high school chamber of commerce had. on Thurs day morning, the opportunity to meet Iluirh Krum. district truant oiiicer. air. I Krum solicited the aid of the chamber I of commerce in assisting in some char ity cases. He explained that In his work he continually found children who were unable to attend school for the reason that they were in need of glasses or medical attention and that their parents were quite unable to sup ply the necessary needs. Mr. Krum made his talk very impressive by show ing that by giving help to the children in a physical way would be fitting them for the struggles of life later on. Mr. Herdman favors the idea and the chamber of commerce is giving the matter grave consideration and in all probability will give some assistance. . In the recent essay contest. "Portland as a Seaport," under the auspices ot the Portland Chamber of Commerce. Washington High School had several entries and came out with a good snow ing. William Grout took first prize, Vivian Elliott third, and Edith Turner honorable mention. Washington is proud to know that her students were so successful in the contest and con gratulates the winners. Invitations have been issued for the senior prom, which will be held in the school gymnasium January 7. The committee in charge has made elab orate plans and the affair promises to be one of the smartest of the year. s A letter was recently received at Washington from ex-Washington stu dents now at the University of Oregon, congratulating the school on having won the Northwest championship in football and extended praise to the football team a tribute it well de serves.
