years, while the revenue derived for
school support haa remained about
the same, was the high light brought
out In a report read before the Ro-
lary club yesterday noon by C. H.
Underwood for seven year, chairman
of the board of school district No. 1.
Six years ago school district No. 1
of Klamath county, possessed only
two school buildings of any conse
quence, these being at Central and
Riverside. In addition to these the
district owned a small two-room
frame building on property belong
ing to the Pelican Bay Lumber com
pany near Pelican City. The pupils
living In Mills addition were housed
in three rented rooms In the old
Mills addition hall. -
School opened In the fall of 1819
with an enrollment of 720 pupila in
twenty-one class rooms. At present
we are employing forty class-room
teachers, and the enrollment totals
1353. alt may be seen from these
figures that our schools have almost
doubled during the last six years,
and by far the largest portion of
this Increase ho come during the
laat two years.
Mills School Built
In the summer and fall of 1919
a new brick school was built In
Mill addition at a ot-at, approxlr
mately ?15,000 and the pupils were
moved from their very Inadequate
quarters In the old Mills addition
hall to this modern new school, very
much to their gratification, and the
gratification of all the people of that
section of the city, as well aa the
members of the school board.
In 'the summer and fall of 1929,
another modern school was built in
Falrriew addition at a cost of 523.
577.26 for the building, and $..000
for the site, to relieve the over
crowded condition at Central school.
Prior to the completion of this
school, five class-rooms had been
housed for several months in the
Main street court house, which at
that time was under litigation, and
not being used as a court house.
The next year a modern school
was built near Pelican City at a

CHAMP OUTLUCKS
BABE HERMAN IN
CHAMPION FIGHT
Little to Choose? Between
The Pair and Looks
Like Draw
NEW YORK. Dec. 18. They say
the first seven tight are the hard
est If so Lou (Kid) Kaplan and
Babe Herman have got through
with the worst of their troubles.
They met for the seventh time in
ffelUlckard' new Madison Square,
Garden Friday night, and Kaplan
was awarded the Judge's decision
after 15 rounds of fighting which
did credit to neither fighter.
There was little to choose be
tween the pair, and no doubt the
Judges, using the new "rounds
won" system, were right In their the ' d00rg of the Ctntrai Saving
verdict, although Herman by his bank Tney wlu be open agal
aggressiveness and more effectively 6fl days for depositors, having
work. at long range, seemeo 10
deserving or a draw.
Most ot the tight found the box
ers wrapped la each other's arms
pounding away at cUse quarters
and doing little damage. At the
start ot the bout it looked as
though Herman might win the title
by virtue of his destructive punch
ing, for he drew blood from the
champion' ear, nose and mouth in
quick succession.
Bobbing about like a cork off
rum row, Kaplan made himself a
difficult target, however, and Her
man's right hand leads were par
ticularly Ineffective. At Infighting
Kaplan had all the best of it and
it was thus that he retained his
championship for the Babe was
obviously the stronger of the two.
Twice when he missed savage
right swings Herman was clipped
on the side of the head by Kap
lan and turned complete somer
saults, coming up" on hk feet. He
was toueh as a tiger throughout
and showed less fatigue than the
champion except for an angry red
spot under hi. ' left arm, where
Kaplan had sunk his right ropeat
edly during the fighting at close
quarters.
There wa. little color to the
bout and less excitement neither
man tlaMnK p a a real
felhOTWelght champion. The Gar
den was comfortably tilled, how
ever, and Tex Rlckard enjoyed an
other good fight.

. ' $5,000,000
DENVER, Colo., Dec. 18. What
would have been the sixth bank
failure In two day in Denver was
averted In dramatic fashion Fri
day by Bishop Frank Rice of the
Liberal church, inc., who, plough
ing bis way through aa excited
mob of depositors clamoring at the
Central Savings bank, deposited
a 8100 note to hi account and
thereby baited a rnn on the in
stitution. j The agonized depositors looked
upon the churchman with amaxe-
ment as ha turned from the cash
. ler's window with a smile upon his
I face. He raised his hand as if to
speak, and a quiet fell upon the
depositors who, a moment before
had been fighting back the spectre
of a black Christmas day.
"See" began the bishop. "I have
faith. I have placed my money
In the hands of these men. It'
would be a foolish thing to make
a run on this institution. It would
be bringing ruin upon yourselves.
I beg you to have faith." :
No sermon ever preached by
Bishop Rice had a more telling
effect. Whether It wa In words,
or whether - It was hi. own faith.
thalhtfeHed the' excited' ' crowd
would be hard to say. Anyway,
the man. who preaches faith as a
religion, has shown some of It
himself. Jt produced it effect and
as he walked away a great crowd
followed him. Only a few mysti
fied, shamefaced few remained at
ejtaken advantage ot th9 iaw

quiring depositors to give 60 day
notice before withdrawing funds.

The causes of the frenxy among
depositors in Denver are easily un
