The firstling will come off on Thursday night, while the boxing will iw pulled off on the fallowing night. Inasmuch as there is quite a great deal of work to be done in enlarging the stage in the assembly room of the high school, where (h,, taut* will take place, it was thought wise to ai'range 2 nights There is also quite a little work lo Is. done before the time of the tournament. Selection and training of the participants, who are t„ compete, ordering of medals, 1 securing a permit from the State Boxing Commission, selection of officials,' erection of the stage and Jight in the assembly room, and many other things that will come up. j Two years ago the permit was issued by the late John Smith, of Ventnor. who was then the chair- , man of the State Boxing Commis- 1 sion. Mr. Smith was present on!! the night of the tournament, and j , he told the audience that it was 1 j the most successful tournament j that he ever saw in the public , | schools. He also said, that we-' we could have the permission to j , hold as many such tournaments! a» we pleased. Last year the per mit was granted to us from R.

Bids are t being advertised by the City Cos mmissioners, for building of the f new athletic field. The bid calls for having the field done on or bet fore June 1st. We hope to play 6 base ball before June 1st. A nu- . mber of the boys are now doing s some light training. Philip Kutcher, Latham MacGregor and Ans thony Huff have been throwing f tiie ball around for some time. j JL'NIOR CLASS DANCE f The Junior Class gave a very successful dance in Hann Buihit Ing, last Saturday evening. This ^ was the first of a series of dances they will give every Saturday. :The class is striving hard to raise [sufficient funds, for the Junior I j Prom, which they will give to the ( I Seniors this spring. Herman Sel- , valgn and Marion Trout were apI pointed as a committee by the I I class to look after these dances. I '■DR. BOHN TALKS TO STUDENTS; Dr. William E. Bohn, advance " of Chautauqua, which appeared here Saturday, Monday jand Tuesday, gave a very interesting talk last Thursday mom- ' : to the students of the "high " school, about hi* experiences in [Canada last summer while he was ' j a lecturer on the Chautauqua plat- ! j form. Space does not permit to !; elaborate upon his message; but ' we must say that his talk was the ' best that has been heard by the ' students, for many moons. It is ! hoped that many more such men will come and give us such splen1 did speeches. Dr. Bohn was introduced to the ' students by Dr. J. Thornley Hu- ! ghes, chairman of the local Chaucommittee, who eneoor the students to attend the Chautauqua. « I ^ | . THE CATCHER CORNCT1ST . It is expeeted that the students ' will be glad to leam, that Eugene Halleran, has been selected as one ' of the two regular catchers on the - BuckneU University base ball ■ Also plays a cornet in the 1 orchestra, of the Fraternity Batta • Psi, of which he is a mem- ■ ber. Eugene graduated from our : school in the class of 1921, and • while here he played left field on the base ball ninft. Someone ask- ' ed Herman bow he missed having ' in our orchestra. Well, Eu- . gene never played much while he - here, but took up playing under a fine instructor at Bucfcnall. I, Eugene is taking up a courre • law. • j Here's good luck to you and ■ i wish you success as a catcher on lithe base ball nine. • J. M. STEVENS ARRIVES HOME •j Supt. James M. Stevens, arrivlied home last Saturday, from the i • annual meeting of the superintendent's convention, of the National • | Educational Asso., which was held ,jin Cleveland last week. No doubt but what Supt. StevI will have something very interesting to tell about the conven- ■ tion, to the teachers when they . will hold their monthly meeUng, ■ next Wednesday afternoon, in the t eighth grade room. I SCHOOL BIRTHDAYS There were four birthdays last f week among het high school stu- . dents. Charles Cox and Elisabeth ; Stowman came on Friday, March 1 1 2d, while Doyle Huff and Anna , | Sutton, had theirs on Saturday, . March 3d.

Next week there will be five, Ruth r| Stretch, Eva Pileggi, Norma Lanr . -zara, Ina Wright and Rhoda Dow. man. COMMENTS — By a Bookatoar r It is believed by a number of I i fans, that the Ocean City Athlr I I tic Association, has struck the light combination, Mangold, Mur5 [ phy, forward, with Adams of MSi , ler center, and Henderson and i Ferguson guard*. When "Kid" - Garwood makes this shift it at ere* j to be a pusxle to their opponents. -j "Fats" Breckley say* that he is 31 t B •

But we do I 5 know that It didn't take long, for P'ville to score those four double] I deckers, it happened so quickly; II that R was hard 'for anyone to re-] N alixe it until it was done. After' 11 K Scott Adams had thrown the foul ' II goal, putting his team in the lead 1 II 23-22, and with two minutes left I to play, if they could have play- 1 II j. ed their men closer, when they : II H had the ball and froze the ball] II 9 when they had it themselves the) I t score would have been different, j I e There is nothing so detrimental j II r to a team as when they lose their II e morale.

TO BUILDER5 jt Since the Creation of the World Cities Have Been Molded by Those Who !j Could Seize Upon Opportunity. In jj Every Age Progress Has Waited In I Attendance Upon Those With Vision | Who Could See Opportunity As It j; Txwinkled In the Future. !! OCEAN CITY, is standing on the threshold of a wonderful stride forward. In point of location it is rarely blessed. We predict a city of 20,000 permanent population by 1 926, and a summer population of 1 50,000. We believe that an investment made now will prove just as profitable as those made in the past and more so, ; because the advancement of the city will be much more I rapid. There is a demand in OCEAN CITY by homeseekers' for houses costing from $8,000 to $12,000. There is also a wonderful volume of inquiries at this early date for summer rentals. We believe that if a company were organized to erect fifty or more of these dwellings they could be disposed I of as soon as completed., Land in OCEAN CITY is comparatively cheap. Profits to builders would therefore be substantial. A desirable location for such an operation is in "THE GARDENS." A tract consisting of 440 lots, was opened last fall and all of it has been sold, indicating that the Gardens section is in favor. I We have no doubt that sufficieut land to operate uch a building venture could be secured from present owners at a fair profit to them. We believe it would be to your interest to communicate wtih any Realtor. OCEAN CITY REAL ASTATE BOARD I OCEAN CITY, N. J. 1
