LEO H. STERN. The many high school friends of Leo H. Stern were saddened when, after a short illness from pneumonia, he succumbed Sunday morning, February 15. Mr. Stern possessed a personality which won for him many friends. He was as deeply interested in C. H. S. athletics as any outsider could be and the basketball team lost one of its most ardent supporters when Stern was taken. Members of the basketball team acted as pall bearers when the remains were taken to Cleveland for interment. MRS. JOHN IRISH. The school extends sympathy to Miss Lucille Irish, a member of the Junior class, whose mother, Mrs. John Irish, passed away Sunday, February 15, at the home of another daughter, Mrs. Eric Erickson, Ashtabula.

There is not a doubt of that, but what are we going to do? Those who lower themselves so far as to delve into the pockets of others and abstract articles, money, and even steal sweaters, are on the jvay to a rapid downfall. Sooner or later there is going to be a show-down and those who have been carrying on the “dirty work” are apt to be dealt with more severely than they imagine. Amongst the student body there are a limited few who have a pretty good idea as to who the thieves are, especially those who stole the two sweaters from Carroll Cowden, one sweater being a greatly prized gift from C. H. S. a year ago, his basketball 1 sweater. The other was a football sweater of blue. Petty sums of money have disappeared, but there is no doubt but what they have been stolen, not mislaid or lost. One fellow was unlucky enough to be robbed of fifteen dollars, all hard earned dollars too. “Where is the man with soul so dead” who has so little love and respect for his school that he will commit derogatory acts which give her name a smirch in the minds of the public and a “black eye” in the minds of other schools, whose visiting teams have to be warned to watch their belongings?
