Fight to Draw
NEW YORK, Dec. 13 UP)
The headlong careor of young
Kid McCoy toward the wolter
weight title ran Into a tern
porary dutour last night when
the baby-laced battler from De
troit was held to a draw by
Frttilo Zlvic.
At the end ot 10 furious
rounds In Madison Square Gar-
jifcin, two officials called It even.
W.no third voted for McCoy but,
under New York's boxing sys
tem, tho majority ruled. McCoy
was a downcast bo.ser as he left
tho ring. Ho thought he had
won, and so did most of the
crowd. This observer gave Mc
Coy six rounds to four.
It was a rip-tearing contest
all the way.

Last night, Friday, the student

their first blackout.

building went
out. This came
so unexpectedly
one would be
surprised how
calmly many of
the students
took the raid.
i Most, however,
could almost be classified as
fifth columnists because It is
said that the noise in the high
school was so loud that It could
be heard clearly on certain
points of Oregon avenue.
Tho traffic squad and Klam
ath Knights handled the altua
tlon as beat they could under
tho conditions.
Stave Stewart came In handy
in keeping the crowd fairly
quiet by loading tho group in
song. Every now and then the
l'op Peppers or Stewart would
pop up with a song and soon
tho whola crowd was Joining
In.
The students in the course of
tho evening sang "Tho Star
Spangled Banner" and "Cod
Bless America" aevoral times
with marvelous response each
time.
Although the assembled
crowd wus not riulous It was at
limes pretty hard to control and
It may bu nccesaury to usu

the future.
Wall, what did you think of
Donny Noel? Definitely Pelican
material.
From what we heard and
saw, Donny Noel and the Pell
cans took Yroka Into camp.
Well, if the Pelicans can do the
same with all other teams we
will bo satisfied.
Tha Pelicans beat them el
most as bad as they did last
year when It was 03-13. If the
Pelicans keep up the good work
they will probably place in the

Although the dance hold after
the game was a financial fall

Joyed themselves.
Well, boys, you asked for it,
For the past several years
tho Girls' leaguo has taken tho

the girls will have the Initiative

We will explain why this Is
coming about. Friday plans for
the student body dance after
the game were announced, and
wero being executed when the

conclusion that no organization
held the concession for the
game or tho dance. The Boys'

officers and advisor if the at

at the game and dance. The ad'
ministration said that It would

This Is where the good part
starts. Several officers during
fourth period went to all the
study halls and asked for vol
unteers for the cause. No one
volunteered. The officers then
begged, pleaded and high pres
sured the boys to help, but
would theyT No.
When the list of names of
those who begrudgingly offered

her. Conductor Paul Cayou of
