Mr. A. L. Spohn Hammond High is indeed lucky to have secured a man such as is Mr. A. L. Spohn for its principal. He is a man of the highest integrity, he is to be trusted far, and is very capable of handling the many and varied problems which confront a leader of a large school. 'He is always ready to give assistance or advice, and sees that everyone gets his just deserts. If one plays fair, he is sure to be treated equally Well. it Nlr. Spohn has worked hard and faithfully to build up the school to its present status. A large share of the success which has come to us in various lines is due to his careful management. Our bands, debaters, musical organiza- tions, clubs, and papers, all owe a lot to his support of school endeavors. Our leader is a graduate of Earlham College, Richmond, Indiana, and of the University of Chicago. Previous to his present position, he taught English in the Hammond High School, and in East High School, lwinneapolis. Like most people who have a large responsibility resting on their shoulders, llr. Spohn has a hobby. One of his chief delights is to work in the yard or garden, and may be ,found on his own plot of ground at most any time during the year. H. H. S.

All bills must originate in the House and he passed hy a majority vote in lwoth to hecome laws. Popular election by classes places a student in the Senate and election lwy advisory places him in the House. The laws are enforced and punishment doled out by our Court. They are to be com- mended for their judgment in pronouncing sentenceg for their sentences are usually upheld by Mr. Spohn, our principal. However, if the culprit does not agree he may appeal to the Senate Court. This rarely happens. llHl'5I-I Ulf Rlil'RESEN'l',-Yl'IYES. Top roa': lirlwarrl Feinberg.
