The Senate will also have to make ?hoice for president pro tem., the tupn who will preside when Vice President Curtis is away. Almost any Senator may be chosen, although there is un questionably strong sentiment in'fa vor of the selection of Senator Bo rah. Borah, as chairman of the Com nnttee o?~ questionably the most powerfu/intn" in the upi>cr house, and hL=s recent I utterances and conferences with Pre mier Laval of trance and Foreign Minister Graiidi <d' Italy have done, much to make him an imposing riat^ ional tigure. The main objection to naming Bo rah for this post is believed to come irom thp Idaho senator himself. Bo mb. will probably choose to preserve his freedom to speak from the floor. Hp is enjoying greater popularity at fbepr ecnt moment than he has ever won bet'or-*, largely because fie" has shown a disposition to vote more strictly wiih his Party and because <?1 his admitted grasp of foreign ques tions fvcond to the superpower question will be the silver qeustion.

SYLVA HIGH LOSES TO S. 0. I. (By John Parris, Jr.) The our ta in was drawn fast Thms Hay, in tli? Turkey Day special, on the regular campaign for Sylva High and S. C. I. The last seene was on the stage of Allison Field, home of the "Yellow Jackets'". There the hig play was given. Before a large aucli ence the Yellow Jackets made out a 12-8 victory over the golden Hurrri canes. The grand finale came after sixty minutes of thrilling football. The local fans were given one of the best games that has been played in Sylvil in seme years. The lads from S. C. Ju bleU* *rt; even dozen points, to defeat the Gold and Black squad. The Hurrieanca pica tered eight points to the scfre botad. The S. C. I. lada got off'to* fast sUrtjyjaaitirif: a toucMown On the the kick-off, before oftb'e r, rrot {heir taste i\ -ifce .flffensiv iii th> lnsi half to carry the call ovt for six jtoints The.

C".4. qnaruVbark fof jltvo n?> ; ts behin* St -' owl goal. ' ' The Baptists scored their second touchdown on a pass, MeJunkin to Waldioup, which was caught behind the goal line. S. C. I. failed to con vert on their tryjPor the extra point. Perhaps, to moist all the spectators, the greatest thriller in the game was when Moody, Sylva High center car ried the ball 35 yards for a touch down, only to be called back. Sylva High contended that the referee did n't Ve the play as it was worked, and that it was perfectly legitimate. The argument lasted for fully fifteen min utes. The play was executed with on ly a minute or so to go. In the last period S. C. I. tried a pass. ^Greene, Sylva High half inter cepted it and cut for the sidelines. Wat sop, S. C. I. lineman made a des perate lunge for the galloping Greene and found a hole in his jersey, by which he pulled Greene to the ground Greene's .jersey saved S. C. I. from defeat. \ Captain Sutton and Greene turned superlative work in the. back field. Sutton was on the spot throughout the content, but his strenght was put to a good showing. Time and again he slashed^off neat gains through the line and around the end. A bit of "star dust'? settled on Swangers > aftd Bryscn, ends* These boys just about ropped the show. Clark, Dillard and Tatham turned in ereditable work. Moody pleyed a very consistent game at roaving center. These, boys featured for the Hurricanes. ? S. C* I*, showed a real player in WnldWHip. That laid can certainly make the d>ust fly. He did the kicking ;for the Baptists. When he was iot called into the backfield to pent, ha played end. Gribble's defensive work was one of the high lights for the S. C. I. machine. MeJnnkin, the dash ing quarterback was' the field mar shal for tho Yellow Jackets. His run for 35 yards for the first touchdown in the opening period was one of the nicest runs of the game. ^Tcll folk#, the play has WV11 look forwanl to the football season with much interest. Until then well pack the old pigskin away for safe keeping, to await the coming year.
