ARLINGTON ANNUAL SPELLING CONTEST The District Spelling Contest of the Northwest district, given under the auspices of The Columbus Dispatch, was held at the Grandview School Building, Friday. April 20. The representatives from the Elementary grades were Katherine Reading, Joseph Thomas and Roger Bloomfield; from Junior High. Ellen Benbow, Mildred Marquardt and Miriam Mills; from Senior High, Trances Sayers. Katherine Reading was the only contestant entitled to go to the semifinals, held at Memorial Hall, April 30. At this spelling match Katherine won second place among all the contestants from the four districts of the county. I his entitled her to appear in the finals with Mary Mininni from Grandview. and Norma Grener from Milliards. At the finals Mary Mininni was crowned champion of the Elementary Grades of Franklin County. She was also proclaimed champion of the Junior High section. Mary Mininni. through her uphill fight against odds, deserves the highest commendation for her victories. MUSIC CONTEST Upper Arlington School with an average score of 203, lead the Franklin County Schools in the Music Memory Contest held April 2 I at High School Commerce. The perfect score of the high schools was 2 I 0 per cent. Arthur Brownfield and Josephine Hughes tied for highest place, each receiving grade of 209 per cent. Frances Sayers took third place with a score of 197 per cent. These three represented the Franklin County Schools in the State Contest. Catherine Gibson and Elizabeth Benbow also received high grades in the county contest and served as alternates in the final contest. Pupils who represented the Upper Arlington Elementary School were: William Miller, Olive Mulligan. Mary Kathryn Royer, Alfred Thomas and Ben Watson. Their average was 1621 2, which was the second highest score in the contest. The State Music Contest was held April 28 at Memorial Hall. 1 he Upper Arlington students thought that they had worked pretty hard on this contest, but found that a few counties had done even better. I hree counties had perfect scores of 600 per cent. 1 he highest individual score for Upper Arlington was I 9 I per cent. Of course this is the first year for systematic music at Upper Arlington, but the students rather believe that this was not the cause of their low score; it was probably due to the fact that they just did not realize how much some of these other schools could do. Now they feel it is up to them to show the stuff they are made of by coming back next year with such a strong desire to win that nothing less than a perfect score will result. BIRD HOUSE CONTEST In the bird building contest which was recently held in Columbus 1 im Armstrong took first and second prizes and Warren, his older brother, took third and fourth; Elizabeth Benbow and her sister Ellen took second prize in the girls’ contest. We all feel very proud to think that some of our own Arlington boys and girls are interested in such work. Miss H.: our report should be written out so that the most ignorant can understand it. H. H.: hat part is it you do not understand }
