PAGEANT WILL DEPICT EARLY DAYSOF CITY School 16 Pupils to Stage Event as Part of Their English Course. Early life in Indianapolis is receiving the attention of pupils in the BAB grades at School 16, Bloomington and Market streets. The pupils plan to stage a pageant on the happenings in Indianapolis a hundred years ago. The pageant will be part of the pupils’ work in creative English. • The pageant will be given in six scenes. First will show’ a group of settlers meeting with the commissioners w-ho w f ere sent to select a site for the capitol. Debate on Site In the second scene, the commissioners will be depicted during their debate as to whether to cake the Conner station site or the location near the confluence of Fall creek and White river. Scene three will be laid in “Rosebush Tavern” when a group of travelers will be telling of their .trip. The arrival of Merrill Moores with the records of the state of Indiana will be shown in the fourth scene. The fifth scene will depict some of the customs of the day, including the staging of an apple paring contest. Scene in War Days In scene six, the attitude of the people of the Indiana metropolis during the Civil war will be shown. The scene will be laid in a street, and will show a'group of citizens discussing the questions of the day. Writing of the pageant has called for outside-of-schooW-eading, so the pupils have divided imo six groups—each group being responsible for one scene. Scenery for the presentation has been made by boys in the manual training department. The pageant will be shown early in November.
SETTLE HEIGHTS SCHOOLMTTLE Perry Township Trustee Says Dispute Is Ended. Differences between Perry township and city school officials, that prompted the city council to order annexation of the site of the University Heights school, apparently have been settled, Omer Green, trustee, announced teday. Green has received a check for 810,987 in payment of transfers for University Heights children, who attended school last semester. The school board also has requested that Green issue transfers for the school years 1932 and 1933 for 180 city pupils, he said. No steps have been taken to bring to trial a suit of Perry township .officials to prevent completion of the transfer of the school'property to the city. It is understood the city school board, faced with a reduced budget, does not want to buy the University Heights school building. Green declared that 580 pupils are attending the school this year. When differences arose a year aco, because the city charged $93 tuition for each township pupil transferred to a city school, but paid only SG7, a group of University Heights citizens started the annexation fight.

Contract Bridge
BY WM. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge Leaitue A CLEVER example of card reading by eapplication of the rule of eleven occurred in the final session of the national masters’ individual championship tournament. The East hand was played by David Burnstine, and he succeeded in making four no trump against a defense which defeated most East players at three.

The Bidding After a pass by South, West opened the bidding with one diamond. North and South being vulnerable, the North player did not dare consider a defensive overcall. He passed and East bid two no trump. West raised to three no trump, which became the final contract. The Play South's correct opening was the seven of hearts, and most declarers finessed the queen in dummy. North won with the king and drove out the ace of hearts immediately, so that when South was in the lead with the see of clubs his remaining hearts were established. Burnstine played more cautiously and refused to cover the seven of hearts when it was led. North now did some card counting, and by the rule of 11 he determined that Burnstine in the East had no heart which could take the seven, therefore North played the deuce of hearts. When South's seven held the first trick, he continued with the five of hearts. * It now was Bumstine’s turn to apply the rule of 11 and he reasoned in the following manner: South’s seven spot lead showed

Pupils Mark Columbus Day, ‘Discover America’
D laylets and Pageants Are Staged in Schools of Indianapolis. Countless Indianapolis school children today are being Columbus and the discovering America. In almost every school in the city, pupils are staging playlets and pageants in honor of the sailor from Genoa. Most of the programs are being held in the various classrooms. In only a few schools are exercises being held in the auditorium and attended by all the pupils in the school. Pupils in the junior high grades at Lucretia Mott school No. 3, at 23 North Rural street, w r ere to portray the work of Columbus in a pageant today. Junior Knapp of the 8A class was to present a Discovery day reading. Play at Moth School ‘‘The Discovery of America” is the title of the play which was to be presented by the 4A-5B pupils during the last period of school today in the auidtorium at Mott school. The pupils have made a study of the clothes worn by the Spaniards of the period, and by the Indians who received Columbus and his men. All costumes were made by the pupils at no expense. Pupils taking part in the play are Robert Mclntire, George Lyons, Constance Kellar, Donald Talbert, Paul Spencer, Jean Williams, Dorothy Wjldman, Robert Knolles, Louis Mann, Janet Wolf, Virginia Washburne, Marion Keene, Ruth Jones and William Stone. Make Wall Hangings In addition to developing the play, pupils in the art classes have made wall hangings depicting life of the Indians. A play, “Columbus Day,” poems and the crowning of Columbus will make up the program which was to be given by junior high pupils at Charity Dye school No. 27, Seventeenth street and Park avenue, at 10:30 today. Pupils who were to be in the cast of the play were Robert Kaiser, Larry Ogle, Mary Louise Gallagher, Lois Hall. Albert Buschman,' Jack Blount, Bobby Clemens, Jack Jackson, Stanley Barnett, Dorothy Ann Fisher and Mary Josephine Lane.
that he had three higher hearts; therefore, by a process of elimination, North had two. The five of hearts led to the second trick marked South with a five-card suit originally, and, therefore North could have only two hearts left—both of which were higher than the seven. If North had held two intermediate hearts—such as the eight, nine, ten, or jack—he should have played one of them to the first trick for two reasons; first, to signify his approval of the lead and his desire for its continuation; and, second, to unblock the suit for his partner. When North played the deuce, a decidedly discouraging card, it only could be because hedid not wish to take the lead, aiW the deuce was the only card he could play to leave the lead with South. Burnstine reasoned that North allowed South to hold the first trick in order to get another lead through the ace-quecn in dummy, and therefore one of North's high hearts must be the king. Accordingly, he played the ace in dummy, wisely refusing an obvious j finesse. After running off five diamonds, he led a small club *from dummy. South won with the ace and returned a heart, but North’s king blocked the suit. Although South held fwo more good hearts, there was no way for him to get the lead and Burnstine made the remaining tricks. (Copyright, 4932. NEA Service. Inc.)

DUTCH VILLAGE MODEL IS BUILT AT SCHOOL 82 ✓ Work of 4A Pupils Is Part of Study Course on Holland. Pupils in the 4A grade at Christian Park school No. 82, at 2700 English avenue, have “gone Dutch.” They have completed the building of a village in Holland. Everything from the dikes, without which no Netherland town is complete, to the dog cart and the stork's nest, which are just as necessary. Betty Stine and Jack Boyden pooled their knowledge and their reseach to construct the dikes which tower above the tiny houses. The dog cart is the product of John Wiese and Albert Evans, while Jean Lacy built the nest for storks. The building of the village was carried out as a project in connection with the study of Holland in the reading class. Each pupil has had some part in the construction, whether it be the making of a house or the molding of cheese from clay and painting it red to give that realistic touch. The windmills, which are to the Dutch scene what log cabins are to the American landscape, were built by Theodore Compton and Jean Lacy, while Billy'Bender. John Follis. Edgar Snyder, and William Sferruzzi built the boats which are in the harbor. Mary Mines and Clara Adam., designed the tulip gardens. Virginia McAlhaney and Betty Stine made the trees, and the other scenery was the handicraft of Betty Thompson and Jean Lacy. Betty Voris, Thelma Pence * and Hazel Cron built the houses. ’ The market place was made by Jean Allender, Norval Brown and Marjorie Stewart. The various animals which dot the landscape were, made by Norman Cunningham. And that is how' the duchy of the Dutch was set up in Christian park school.
