Although a_ committee was named to see, merchants a pub- lic .appea;li was’ ordered made to the merchants and citizens. not only along the line of nnarich, but also those on ‘the side streets to decorate the business houses and homes on -the Fourth, jump, basketball throw, softy ball -throw and the shuttle re-p lay.

These to be in picnic style, un-o limited‘ as to weight, ‘age, or’ other requirements. Each win-j ner to -receive a prize. «Final, preparations were made 'I‘h»ursday afternoon forj the formation of line of march‘ and it was decided to form the riig-ht of line on Steelawanna‘ Avenue and other divisions to form on Wasson, Gates and Si-' mon Avenues.

Some will continue their education in Normal schools, Colleges and Universities, where they will make new as-. sociates, form new friendships and an advnaced outlook on life’s problems at large. But, even though they are st-ill a part of the American educational system they will find that the contacts they make cannot compare with the companionships formed during their progress through the var- ious grades, yes, and the past four years especially. Passing from our great pub- iic school system they will find a -new environment, Gov- erned more by cliques, both socially and in athletics, which calls for a finesse and savoir Those who cannot enter col-. lege but who will become a_ cog in our vast commercial system will often -look, with «longing, to the then dreary (‘.’) days of English 1, 2 or 3, Latin and Geometry, that seemed such a drudge during the past four years. In fact, all this glorious youth whose shining faces will ‘reflect the pardonable pride of kin- folk and and friends are leav- ing behind the brightest days of life; “School days, school days, good old golden rule days,\ Let us all unite in wi_shi__ng not only those who are now passing thru the portals sup~ ported by the little red school house on one side and Ameri- can ideals on the other--for the last time-—God speed in the voyage through life, but also give a greeting to the bright younsters who will fol- low the glorious class of '33 Lackawanna High School. HIGH SCHOOL Raiman was crossing the (bridge about 11:30 Monday night when he heard a». woman scream and. upon investigation. he found that Mrs. Josephine Muszalski, 1110 Date street, had been accosted by the negro wh or-an when she screamd. Spirited discussion was ‘started when Glevelando Crosby President of the Chamber of Commerce suggested. that the- parade be headed by the Board of Trade Chamber of Commerce and Butchers’ and Grocers Association. Cavalli alleged Eagan mis-. abused his authority in investi- gatng his case and that he was forced to go through past winter without an overcoat, Cavalli. also alleged that he was denied admission to Cole's o when he sought to enter formal complaint against Mr. Eagan. In a statement upon the case, Wednesday, Mr. Cole declared that Cavalli ha] receved aid in excess of his budget, an! that he had found that several sig- natures on the petition had been forged, upon oral ques- tioning of some of those signa- tures were attached to the petition. The Lieutenant immediately bean search for the culprit. accompanied by ‘a posse of about 100 indign citizens. Chairman Hegedus stated that the Board of Trade did not feel they would like to lead as all organizations of the city were their guests, in a way. and thought that the plan of the American Legion in the Memorial Building parade of closing the line of march more appropriate. Mr. Crosby, however, con-, tended that this was a ‘business mens parade and, as such, the associations he mentioned should be at the head. Members of the conference were quick to take issue with Mr. Crosby and it was finally decided to draw for the ‘honor of heading the parade, Through various organiz- ations have signified their in~ tention to take part in the amusement of the crowds at the Stadium it is hoped that a full report can be obtained from all affiliated bodies at the meeting next Monday eve- ning. A special meeting of the —marshal’s committee was eajll-V ed at 3 o'clock Thursday to formulate plans for the forma- tion of the parade, Mr. Tarquino, representing some of the Italian societies suggested that a very large portrait of President Roose-. velt be painted and carried at the head of the parade but could find no second to his mo- ton. In fact, he brought down upon himself considerable vcensure. . Ross was finally run to earth in the field at the end of Kossuth street and it was only with difficuty that Raiman re- strained other searchers from taking the law into their own hands and succeeded in bring- ing Boss to headquarters where he was identified by Mrs, Muszalski. > The parade will form at 9 o’cloc.k ready to move promptly at 10 o'clock, a When arraigned before Judge Pillion, Tuesday morn- ing, Ross received the stiffeat sentence pronounced by the judge since his occupation of the bench when his honor pro- nounced one year in the peni- tentiary and $250 fine or an-, alternative of one day addition. al for each dollar in lieu of payment of fine.
