It developed ut the mcet liiK that the school board of thu city hud fulled to ask for u permit to con struct the big now play shed now being erected on tho Washington school play ground directly across the street facing the flno homes on Lau rel street, about which thero had been much adverse comment. It was also brought out ut this ses sion that the school board had erect ed' the temporary ovifIw- School building In the Washington school yard without having obtained a building permit from tho city. There wus no discussion of- these matters, beyond the fact thnt tho school board had shown discourtesy toward tho city council by not asking -for such permits, and thnt in the future when the city planning board gets to func tioning, tho erection of such struc tures will bo impossible unless refer red to tho board and sanctioned by it.

FEDERAL HIGHWAY El E WASHINGTON, D. C, Dec. 20. A major Item of geographical news nrlses from tho nccessioA of tho Fas cisti In Italy because, of Mussolini's reported announcement that his gov ernment will seek the transfer of the Swiss Canton of Ticlno to "Greater Italy." "Italy's irredentism, born in the late seventies of tho lost century, bore fruit when the Trentlno roglon came to her after the World War. With- thut encouragement it is not surprising that her dream of uniting Italians nnder the Italian government should persist. "Ticino is so situated and so popu lated that it could not well help being the next place for the irredentist lightning to strike. This canton makes a trowel-like thrust into the saw-tooth boundary of northern Italy a thrust which becomes especially conspicuous since similar Austrian projections were Ironed out At the Tunnel's End "There is no gainsaying that Ticino is thoroughly Italian in race, language and culture. It is a question, however, whother the Ticinese wish to forego their hard won status as a fairly autonomous unit of the Swiss confed eration for government hy their home land. Across the Alps lies Italy, for the southward traveler through the Simplon tunnel. To nil appearances the south-bound passenger emerging from tho St. Gothnrd tunnel also is in Italy. The little town of Airolb has every aspect of the 'Land of tho Ma 1 donnas' and down the course of the i Ticino river into that wondrous valley of plenteous waterfalls, the Leventina, the people, the scenery, even the vege tatlon is distinctively Italian. I "However Airolo is on the northcrn niost frontier of tho Swiss Canton, ! ami after passing town after town i which exert the spell or Italy, tho trav eler finds himself at Ticino's capital 'of three castles, Bollinzona, where the i St. Gothard line works. "Locarno beckons from the east, only fourteen miles away, and Lugano allures him to the south. Having got ten this far into Switzerland's Italian Canton, where American visitors arc few and German guests formerly were many, the wise traveler would see both. , ' Mitzi and Octet of Dancers in 'Lady Billy' at Page Christmas, Matinee and Evening a" IT "XT'" ii u-i -I- tw r,fTiw Aa.'-it " t vv ra v s. , f I0NAI.
