Meat Prices Lower
Over The States j
CHICAGO yP)—The drop in hog
and meat prices was getting down
yesterday to where it counts for
most people—at the retail butcher
shop.
Many stores throughout the
country slashed pork prices for
the coming week-end, a direct re
sult of the sudden outpouring of
hogs from the country. The oft- j
mentioned but never very appar
ent “consumer resistance” wras
pooh-poohed in some quarters as
a cause for the decline.
And it was in pork, much more
than in beef or lamb, that butchers
were posting the lower figures.
While retail outlets were cutting !
prices, the hog market’s steady j
slump came to at least a temporary
halt. Prices firmed a bit at most
markets Wednesday. However,:
wholesale pork quotations contin
ued to ease at Chicago.

HIGH SCHOOL
On Oct. 7, 1777 or 171 years ago
yesterday was the anniversary of
B^rgoyne’s surrender at Saratoga.
It was a great turning point in the
Revolutionary War.
Students in English II have
completed two units in literature.
They are now writing original
poems and stories for the Fair.
English IV students have fin
ished the reading of Macbeth by
William Shakespeare. They have
also studied the history of litera
ture during the important period
of the Renaissance which means
revival or rebirth of learning.
Many books are going home each
night because the first six weeks
examinations for report card
grades commence on Monday. Dil
igent students generally achieve a
position on the honor roll.
Basketball boys have played six
preliminary games with the U. S.
Mercontile team and have display
ed progress. The first team men
will soon be selected from the i
squads.
The sophomore students are
watching carefully to see whether
the freshmen of this year will
reach their high standard of schol
arship. Many of last years fresh
men class were A students and
contributed much to the school
spirit of the Nome High.
Many new and highly worth
while books have been added to
the library. Students taking libra
ry work have assisted in labeling
the books according to the Dewey
Decimal System. Lowrer grade
books are likewise of unusual
choice.
Lois Overbough has been at the
hospital for an appendicitis opera
tion. She is improving rapidly and
will soon return to school. Clara
Seiffert underwent a similar oper
ation a week earlier. She recovered
in record time and is now back at
school.
Nome High School can be justly
proud of the great nuumber of
graduates of recent years who
have entered college. Jane Scott is
now attending the University of
Southern California, Phyllis Roell
at Stephens College, Missouri,
Julia Silverman at Stanford, Wal
ter McCarthy at Purdue, Loretta
Snyder at Pullman, Arthur McLain
at the University of Alaska and
Jim Edwards in a California col
lege.
Word has been received from
Jack and Marilyn Dowd that they
are attending school in Seattle.
Jack has already become popular
with his classmates in that he has
been elected their class representa
tive.
The large harvest moon of recent
date has been due to the small an
gle its path makes with the hori
zon at the time of the Autumnal
equinox. %
Stars actually visible to the un
aided eye at a single place do not
exceed 200 or 3000. It varies slight
with changing conditions of the
atmosphere.
