The first ten amendments to the
Constitution were adopted on Dec.
15, 1791. They form what is called
the American “Bill of Rights.”
This guarateed to the citizens the
right of trial by jury, the right to
assemble and petition the govern
ment, the freedom of speech, the
freedom of the press, adn the free
dcfm of religion. It also laid down
two of the main principles of de-.
mocracy: that the law of the land
might not be suspended without
the approval of the legislature,
and that the military must be sub
ordinate to civil power.
Fluorescent lights have now
been installed in the remaining
class rooms and students are very
happy over the improved lighting
system.
Some very interesting slides on
Korea were shown in the assem
bly by Miss Ruth Gumbinsky.
The students greatly appreciated
the slides which conveyed so much
information of Korea.
English I students are reading
ballads and are now studying
“The Lady of the Lake” written
by Sir Walter Scott. They are also
writing poems about winter.
In sc/lid geometry the students
are working problems about
cubes, cyilinders and cones. They
compute the slant heights, lateral
areas, and volumes.
Edward O’Connor, who is now
at Sitka, misses the winter snow
and activities in Nome.
Meteors are more numerous at
sunrise than during any other
sunrise than at any other time of
the day. If one should run rapidly
in a rainstorm, the chest becomes
wetter than the back because of
the advance of the body to meet
the drops. In a similar manner
the forward or advance hemi
sphere of the earth, in its motion
round the sun encounters more
meteors than any other portion.
Saturn is a morning star and is
now east of the Constellation Leo.

BRATE GOLDEN WEDDING
A group of friends from the
Oriental iShrine, surprised Mr. and
Mrs. R. B. Julian at their home,
6510 Francis St., Seattle, when
they dropped in to celebrate their
50th Wedding Anniversary. With
them was 'Mrs. Susie Haroldson
who had been bridesmaid on Nov.

Instead of individual gifts, a
shower of ‘gold dollars” was given
the couple (silver dollars wrapped
in gold). A beautiful wedding cake
was served at a dinner enjoyed by
the crowd after greetings were
exchanged.

The incident occurred—the ac
counts jibed in this, at least—at
the swank Sulgrave Club of Tues
day night. Another columnist *and
radio commentator, Fulton Lewis,
Jr., broadcast the first public ac
count of it Wednesday night.
The pertinent post-fight quotes:
McCarthy:' ‘I smacked him with
my open hand and knocked him
down on his hips. I didn’t punch
him.”
Pearson: “The Senator kicked
me twice iri the groin, as usual he
hit below the belt. But his pugil

not hurt.”
Pearson said the encounter end
ed when Senator Richard M. Nix

vened. McCarthy said Nixon saw
the fracas but didn’t separate
them.
Said Nixon: “The event occur
