In accordance with the Grants Pass-Medford game the French club sponsored a pep dance Immediately following the game Saturday after noon, at which Orants Pass players were honored guests. The dance lasted an hour and a half, breaking up near 6:00. Music waa furnished by Whipple's orchestra, engaged for the function by a dance committee composed of French club members and headed by Virginia Martin and Dorothy Buchter. Small red and black souvenir footballs were sold for 10 cents each, which enabled the owner to attend the dance. Sale of these tickets was begun October 33, extended up until the time of the dance and was continued at the door. The attending crowd was a large one and found the dance an In teresting and unusual affair. Not only was the dan for the gathering of funds for the French club, but for advertisement of the Grants Pass-Medford game. It was found to be a big success for both the club and the school. By Barbara Hampson. A nolso parade publicizing the Mcd-ford-Grants Pass game was held at 3 o'clock October 23. Every club in school was requested to participate and the student court assessed a fine of 92 on any organization not taking part In the parade. Twenty-one societies participated in the march and as the floats passed the Chamber of Commerce building thoy were Judged and prizes awarded. Two dollars for making the most noise was awarded to the Junior class, 92 waa also given to the Crater for most cleverly advertising the game and second prizes of 91 were given In each section also. These were won by the Future CraftBmon, G. A. A. and Latin club. The drum corps and the high school band played In the line of march preceding the floats. The Junior, senior, and sophomore classes marched also. The noise parade was orderly and the students participating wero co operative. It was believed that the parade excited much interest In th football game at the high school Sat urday.

The debate was held between the different clubs and societies In th. school, the finals being between the Torch honor, the French club and the Girls' league. Each club had two teams, one affirmative and one nega tive, and the debates were held In the different classes, the teachers acting as Judges, except in the finals, when two Judges and the class vote made up the decision. Mr. Wood announced his satisfac tion with the fine co-operation be tween the teams and hopes to con tinue these interesting inter-club de bates next year.
