THE GOLD AND BLACK CHAMPION BOXER LOSES TO PROPST Roy Propst gained the heavyweight title tonight when he knocked Jack Demp- sey from the ring in the sec- ond round of a scheduled ten round bout. Propst was never in danger of the terri- fic wallop of the champion. He was so much smaller that he dodged the former K. O. artist and tired him out so, he was easy to knock out. Dempsey is reported to have said that he might as well have been slndow-boxing as to try to hit his opponent. ♦♦♦♦♦♦ For the Restoration of Your Hair, Use Godiva’s “Gro-Quic” Tonic Dear Friends: I am Anna Taylor, once famous actress, but I had to quit the stage on account of my hair falling out. Two weeks ago a friend told me to try “Gro-Quic Tonic,” but I did not think it would do any good. She advised me to do so at once or I would lose all my hair, so I ordered a bottle of this tonic. In less than a week my hair has grown a foot long and it also has stopped dropping out. I am back on the stage egain and making a comfor- table living. Yours for “Gro-Quic,” Anna Taylor. 16 Movie Street, Hollywood, Cal. NOTED DANCER SUES FOR DIVORCE Nan Archer, world famous dancer, has now entered suit for divorce against her hus- band, Dr. C. A.

Wje Xtimear History of the Class of 1925 The smoke of the camp fire rose lazily and soon lost itself in the dusk, fast descending in that wooded spot, ‘‘The Glass Pasture,” where the class of ’25 was holding a reunion, fifteen years after graduation. The magic of the fire light seemed to have lifted the curtain of years, and once more the class of ’25 was- able to sing “Down in K. H. S.” with the same old zest. And after that, it was only natural that the past should be recalled. Some noticed the shrunken circle. “We were once twenty-eight,” Roy said woefully. “Why don’t you remember when we started to learn our “High School Spirit Song?” Boys and girls, it really was in 1924, and it has been nineteen years ago. We are getting old.” “Do you remember that first Freshmen election, and our class meeting later when we adopted Black and Gold, for our class colors and ‘‘Esse quam Vidieri,” for our motto?” said Irene. Margaret then suggested. “If we’re going to turn this into a memory meeting, we might as well go about it systematically; so let’s each tell what impressed our mind most and thus we wont omit anything. You begin, Mr. President.” “It was so long ago that about all I remember is Thanksgiving holidays and a Christmas tree during my Freshman year.” “Christmas, we had two weeks vacation which we all enjoyed. After we came back to school, it was like starting a new term of school, for exams came next, and they were our real first ones,” laughed Mildred. “Don’t you remember the time on Valentine’s day when we had a little party? That was the first real party we ever gave, and we were so nervous over it because we were afraid that we would do something wrong.” “Near the end of school the boys organized a base-ball team and played the schools around. Sometimes we would get beaten, but never would get out of heart and we kept our pride just the same. I can’t think of anything more that year,” said Ralph. “Let ' s skip the rest and begin after we were Sophomores,” suggested Emma. “Who has forgotten Halloween night? We surely had a lot on us that year. And it was right there that we helped the Senior class give the party, don’t you remember?” asked Gene Peeler. “When the class of ’23 left us in May we had sad feelings to realize that they would not be with us the remaining two years we had to stay.
