WOKS BOARD TO NOTE PRICE DROP Lower Quotation for Asphalt Reported. of $1.40 per ton In the price of asphalt, purchased by the city for the street repair department, will be laid before the board of public works in order that it may be in position to demand lower proposals from contractors who bid on street improvement projects, City Purchasing Agent Dwight S. Ritter announced today. Mr. Ritter yesterday purchased two carloads of Mexican asphalt at $25.50 per ton. A month ago he paid $20.90 per ton for a car. Early in January the asphalt companies asked $33.53, but the price began dropping so swiftly that Mr. Ritter was able to buy a car at $30.00 in the same month. The cost has been going down almost every week since. Several times this spring City Civil Engineer Frank C. Lingenfelter has recommended that bids for permanent improvement and resurfacing of streets be rejected because they did not reflect the decreasing prices. Several bids were rejected by the board last Monday for this reason. Since Mr. Ritter was able to get a still farther drop for the city this week it Is expected that the board will demand that contractor's prices be lowered correspondingly. The present price Is far below that of last year, when $29.43 was the average price. Because of the continued decline Mr. Ritter has not negotiated contracts for the full summer season's requirements, finding that more money can be saved by baying in the open market. The same procedure has brought material savings In the purchase of coal and other commodities used by city institutions. German Builder to Name Vessel ‘Boche’ BERLIN, Msy 13.—Hugo Stlnnes, the multimillionaire Industrial magnate, was ■o provoked by the refusal of shipyard workers In his yards at Flensburg to launch a vessel because It was named after Admiral von Tirpitz that he said he would name the next large steamer Boche.

School Notes SHORT RIDGE. The Poets' Club of Shortridge under the censorship of Miss Zeis will meet on Monday afternoons hereafter. This Is a new organization and the enrollment Is small at present but Is expected to grow rapidly. Candidates for membership must submit a poem of their own composition before being admitted. The seven members are: Hale Shane Berger, Elizabeth Wolf, Vera Fried, Lora Lackey, Harold Goode, Zelda Robinson, and Alice Luon. The study of verse, versification and the writing of verse are the objects of the new club. At the next meeting officers will be elected and the constitutional committee will submit a plan of organization. Hope Bedford, ’l6, former leading editor of Friday’s Echo and class poet of her class, visited the school Wednesday. She was graduated from Butler last year and during the past year has been principal of the high school at Wawaka, Ind. Mr. Judd of the local branch of the Remington Typewriter Company and a member of the first shorthand class iu Shortridge, spoke before members of the Commercial Club recently. He emphasized various qualities v hich business women should have and told of a course of letter filing which Is being given at the Y. W. C. A. and the necessity of fa-eping accurate and accessible accounts or all business. The election of subjects for the fall semester took place in the junior, sophomore and freshman session rooms last Monday. Only in a few instances will the pupils be permitted to change their programs next fall so every one was required to make out a complete and accurate program. Speakers from the Debating Club opened up a selling campaign last Monday for the Cincinnati debate. May 13. The tickets are in the form of tags and sell at 23 cents each. Both debating teams have been working overtime and last Thursday a meeting was held and work on the debate was done for seven consecutive hours. Mr. Edmondson, who has had a great deal of debating experience. will accompany the Shortridge affirmative team to Louisville. Eight hundred annuals have been sold since the beginning of the campaign last week, according to Gaylord Stuart and Joe Cash, who have charge of managing the year book's affairs this year. The new 'building session rooms alone subscribed and paid for 600 copies. The campaign will be kept up until the limit of 1.200 has been sold and this will probably take another week. In the girls' gymnasium contests the junior girls have the second largest number of any class qualifying in all events, the sophomores surpassing them by a small majority. The comparative standing of the five leading junior girls In the contests for gold, sliver and

bronze pins is as follows? Bernice McC'luskey, 1,836; Rowena Smith, 1,807; Margaret Darko, 1,465; Dorothy Stevenson, 1,456, and Katherine McClure, 1,245. As was done last year, the R. O. T. C. of the three high schools will participate In Memorial day exercises on May 30. It is hoped that Shortridge will make a fitting snowing In this affair, as last year this school boasted the best anil companies in the entire city. Asa climax to the ceremonies a picked squad will fire a volley over the graves of the Civil War veterans. In the meeting of the senior class last Monday, which was held for the purpose of electing class day officers, the following were elected: Dorothy Davis, historian; Robert Conder, will maker; Irene Sewell, prohpet; Theodore Medlas, giftorian.
