The ranre of te ture yesterday was 60 to 48- There seems to be some difference of opinion between the seniors and juniors of the high school as to whether a '17 or an '18 pennant shall hang from the .i.ii-j'uviiv n.ic itrniiiii iiiiu iuy nign school building. The first act was play ad last week and in the scrap that fol lowed, the janitor declared it a draw. Last night the seniors hung their '17 pennant on the wire and this morning the juniors proceeded to unhang it and replace an '18 pennant. After making several attempts to gain possession of the junior pennant, the seniors cut the wire, and as the pennant dropped, there was the usual school scramble, result ing in the seniors in possession, not as a whole pennant, but just in scraps. The flay lasted about three-quarters of an hour, no one hurt, no runs, everybody out and the pennant in pieces safely stowed away injke pockets of the sen iors.
