The civics class is planning this

Owen and Evelyn Humphreys with

were Ray McDuffee and Bernice
Woodson with Harold Case and Dor
othy Hill as substitutes. These de
cisions are not final, however, and
another try-out will be held before
the student body next Friday after
noon. Velma Case was hostess last Wed
nesday evening at a taffy pull for
the senior class. Now they feel a.
though they can pull taffy just
floating in butter, and make it "eat

last week an amendment to the con
stitution was submitted to provide
letters for those participating in in-j

A WESTERN PICTCKE
WITH A 1)11 I F.r.E( i:
A new idea in western photoplay
romancer, has been introduced
through the Goldwyn picture, "His
Back Against the Wall," by John
Frederick. It wll be shown at the
.Star Theare Monday. Here, intsead
of the usual swashbtioklng hero who
fights with both hand3 and shoots
from the hip, we have a timid little
man whom the people of the town
falsely believe to be a hero. All his
denials are disbelieved, and set down
to modesty. The resulting confusion
in the coward-hero's attitude toward
his fellows becomes an amusing
character study presented with the
utmost finesse by that remarkably
able actor, Raymond Hatton.
Whatever shooting takes place ir
"His Back Against the Wall," is
done in the comedy spirt and not in
the melodramatic. The result is a
new kind of western romance with a
sound love interest running through
it. It was directed by Rowland V.
Lee.

Portland, Ore., Dec. 1. "Many or
ganizations entitled to exemptions
from tax on admissions are not com
plying with an Important provision
of the revenue law by which that ex
emption can be obtained," said Clyde
G. Huntley, collector of internal rev
enue, today. "In order to secure this
tax exemption, it Is necessary for the
organization desiring the samo to
file with this office, several days in
advance of the date of the entertain
ment, an affidavit claiming exemp
tion and establishing the right of the
beneficiary to be relieved from the
payment of the tax."
Failure to make formal application
and receive exemption from payment
of the admission tax in advance of
the entertainment makes the person
or authority giving the entertainment
liable to a penalty of not more than
$1000. If this failure is willful, the
offender may be fined $10,000 or im
prisoned for not more than one year,
or both.
Organizations entitled to this ex
emption upon compliance with the
provisions of the revenue law refer
red to by Collector Huntley nclude
religious, charitable and educational
institutions, the American Legion,
societies for the prevention of cruel
ty to children and animals, agricul

only when all of the proceeds ot the

any one or more of the organizations
enumerated.
