DENBURG LINE DEFENSE.
With the American Army on the
St. Quentin Sector, Monday, Sept. 30
American forces fighting on the HIn
denburg line south of Gouy have been
heavily engaged all day and tonight
the action still continues. Australian
units have been cooperating with the
Americans. Near the north arid south
portals of the tunnel through which
the St. Quentin canal runs, the fight
ins has been especially vigorous. It
was at this point that the Americans
passed over the canal. Thousands of
Germans were poured Into the strug
gle and have been heavily engaged.
The St. Quentin canal tunnel runs
for more than five , kilometers under
a mountain. The canal was held by
large numbers of Germans who wer
on board electrically lighted barges.
There are wide tow paths and galler
ies leading off from each side of the
canal and In them the entire garrison
had ' quarters. This section probably
is one of the strongest parts of the
entire Hindenburg system and the
Americans have found It to be liter
ally lined with tunnels, dugouts and
galleries, which require a great deal
of mopping up. Large numbers of
Germans have been killed but before
they were silenced the enemy masses
worked their machine guns with the
greatest vigor.
U. S. MEN CLEAR TUNNEL
When the Americans swept past the
southern end of the tunnel, the Ger
mans remained in hiding until the
Americans got a little way past and
then they surged up and plunged into
the fight. They were engaged first by
the Americans and then by the Aus
tralians. The : tunnel mouth -was
choked with dead. This action began
late last evening and continued until
8 o'clock this morning with unabated
Intensity.

COLLIER ASKS
P. H. S. TO TAKE
FULL COURSES
PRINCIPAL URGES NECESSITY OF
COMPLETING ONE COURSE TO
GET PROPER CREDITS ACCRED
ITED AT TALLAHASSEE.
Students of the . Pensacola high
school are urged to enroll for the'full
course, either in classical, scientific,
commercial, or home economics, rath
er than to take studies from several
courses. These courses are all, elec
tive. Professor Collier said yesterday aft
ernoon that the plans for the opening
of the high school have been very
much hampered because so many, stu
dents have not taken a regular course,
and that their records have not been
properly kept. ,.
.-"Students should be urged to take
the full course in whatever they elect
to study, and the importance of keep
ing their records straight should be
impressed upon them," he said.
Many students have come to Pensa
cola from other cities with no rec
ords of any kind by which they may
be properly placed in the school. Many
of the local students have not com
pleted any one of the elective courses,
and have no clear records of their stu
dies or the units made by them.
"It is most important that students
should decide upon a course of study,
and then stick to that for the entire
four years. . '; :
Economics Accredited.
- "An announcement which will be
received with gratification by many of
the high school students, is that the
home economics department course
will now admit graduates from the
high school to the Florida State Col
lege for Women. This has not been so
heretofore, but the course is now. so
arranged, that students from Pensa
cola high school; will now be uncon
ditionally admitted to college, r
"Another feature which will be of
value to the girl students and will add
to the pleasure of the high school
work this year, is the Girls' Athletic
association, which under the direction
of Miss Beth Walton will train Jhe P.
H. S. girls in "setting up" exercises.
Miss Walton, who is a graduate of the
Pensacola high school, and has taken a
post graduate course at the state col
lege, is well qualified for her duties.
She is an assistant in the home eco
nomics department, of which Miss
Helen Carter Is director.
