aerial attack-Golden Tornado rolls up 27-0 victory. Thus read the headlines of the Forge following the Chino game, played on home ground, Thanksgiving day. The sophomores play but one game this month, and in it defeat the Oxnard B team 24-6. In fencing we find our R.O.T.C. squad challenged by the Los Angeles Junior College to a team bout fencing tournament Saturday the thirteenth at the Veteran,s Memorial Hall. This is the first time in the history of the high school that we have been challenged to a fenc- ing tournament by an out-of-town school. But the octet of C. fcncers proved too much for our team. defeating them thirteen bouts to five. J , Several C. men have won recognition in coast ' A.. fencing competition, but the visiting coach admitted that the competition was tough. In the Novice Epee Tournament held at the Los Angeles Athletic Club, Cadet First T11.m1sbm'x !ilf1ffinig2tPf1fifif CM-vf ff 1Cl'19 Lieutenant Sherman Thornsberry battles his way to third place, winning the right to enter the Pacihc Coast Novice Epee Championship Tournament, to be held this fencing season. The tournament is won by Hal Bauer, L.A.J.C. fencing team captain. The varsity tennis team under Coaches Stewart Paulin and Robert Wormser travels to Montebello Saturday the twentieth to defeat them six matches to four. This proves the Don netters to be worthy contenders for C.I.F. honors next spring, because Montebello won the championship last year and is recognized as one of the strongest teams in the southland. And another month finds its finish as high school students return to work refreshed and thankful for the Thanksgiving holidays. Upprr Irftz A split second in Ihr Fillmore game.

Bowman, vice-principal of our fair school, unanimously elected presi- dent of the Southern Section of the California Teachers Association. He will head the nine southern counties, which represent one half the state, and of which over 17,000 teachers are members. The main purpose of this organiza- tion is to try to serve the teachers in all ways, work for better working conditions, time, and salaries for them, and maintain a teachers, home. Ten boys and fifty-four girls have enrolled in the special course for Christmas employment offered for three special sessions by the Em- ployment Committee and given by Miss Tulita De la Cuesta, Mr. Wiley B. Tonnar, and Mr. James A. Woods. Good appearance and man- ners are emphasized. Plans for practical applications of the training received at the Garden Street cottage by girls of the second year Home Arts course, are discussed at a meeting of the Home Arts Advisory Committee, December 6. The plan suggests placing girls in ten households, all as different as possible, and rotating them, so that all will receive wider experience in household training. The two main objectives of the Com- mittee are to give better preliminary vocational training in school, with more opportunity for placement and to better the working conditions, and raise the wage standard. Mr. Earl Murray's progressive education experiment on his trig class continues to be in- teresting. While one row is in the Held doing a practical problem, the rest of the class is solv- ing original problems, reading math books to report on, or working on projects, particularly sundials.
