HIGH SCHOOL AWAITING
FRIDAY'S EVENT
At Early Morning Meeting All Ar
rangements for Track and Field
Meet Were Made Event Will Be
Held in Frazler Field on Tutullla
and an Admission of 35 Cents Will
lie Clinrged.
An early morning meeting of the
high school student body was held to
day for the purpose of taking up
business relating to the track meet
to be held here Friday and which
time the local students will go against
the Pearson academy team. The
meeting was presided over by Arthur
Means, president, and much enthu
siasm was manifested.
The track meet Is to be held at
the Frazler race track on Tutullla
and an admission of 36 cents each
will be charged for attendance. As
considerable money has to be raised
to defray the expenses ,of the meet
the students are now selling tickets
for the event.
During the present year the high
school people have not raised a cent
of money by subscription, but on the
other hand have defrayed all student
expenses by money received from
student enterprises. This being the
case they contend they should have
the free support of all during the
track season.

The old race of stage drivers has
pretty well passed away In this re

with a note of sadness in its tone.
One Is otill hobbling around Zlon on

Luke in the overland days.
Many a driver was killed and some
deeds of heroism were performed, in
the shadows of the desert, as splen
did as ever made the stories of the
days of knighthood.
This old driver, Dan Bobbins, is
one whom old-timers know. There
Is another one there, Ed Cook. He
was telling the other day how one
driver drove Into Deep Creek station
A man was on the seat beside him
and others in the stake.
As he neared the station he said
to the man beside him. "I do not
like the looks of things here." Just
then an Indian whom he had often
fed rose up and shot him through the
breast; another shot struck the man
beside him and he fell insensible Into
the boot of the stage.
The driver called for some one in
the stage to come from the Inside to
help him. A man climber out, and
the driver gave him the leaders
reins and said: "Keep them straight
in the road and urge them on; I am
gone," and sank down and died in the
boot.
All the men at the station had been
killed. That was but one Incident of
early staging. Those tragedies were
frequent clear to the Sierras, and it
was only about 40 years ago.
