JUNIflRS MEET

The juniors of the Norwalk high
school held a very'important meeting
in the Assembly hall. yesterday after-
noon. Mlss Anna McMahon, popular
English’ teacher. called the meeting
to order. The meeting was for the
purpose of starting a school paper in
thte high school. There have been
other school papers in the past. the
“Minute" had 3. bis: year in 1915, and
the “Echo” also did in 1919. it was
decided that the juniors should carry
on the paper. as the seniors have the
class book to put out. and the sopho
mores are not yet sufficiently ac’
quainted with the school. The paper
is a great advantageto the class, and
School. on a whole.

The elections are as follows:

Editopiu-Chief—F‘rances Deitz_

Business Manager Emma Rubey.

Associate Editors—Margaret Hoyt
and Charles Mitchell.

The executive committee. will hold a
meeting in the near future. and at this
time an advertising manager will be

This is what Judge William F.

“If the trolleys have akfive cent

The present campaign has develop-
ed the fact that many have busied
themselves in spreading false rumors
about different candidates. Shortly
after the nomination of Calvin L. Bar-
ton. candidate for mayor. it was re-
ported that Mr. Barton had promised
to appoint Attorney Leo Davis. cor-
poration counsel in case of his elec-
tion. Mr. Barton denied having made
any political promises. When asked by
a Sentinel reporter this morning as to
such a promise. Mr. Davis repeated
his denial that such was the case. He
said that under no circumstance
would he accept an appointment ii‘
offered him. Other rumors as to Mr.
Bart .‘s administration plans have
been equally unfounded. '
