a solution for stronger banks by sys

ter banking will be the districting of
the state into regional clearing house
associations.

Than Last Year Due to Small
Freshman Class
The enrollment in the local high
school so far this term shows that
t will be slightly under that of last
year as the freshman class this year
is not as large as usual, this general
ly being the largest class in the
school, but this year will be smaller
than the sophoi lores. The enroll
ment by classes is as follows: Senior,
sixty-one; Junior, sixty-three; Soph
omore, seventy-six; freshman, sixty
sir. The senior clasa of 61 members
is larger by two than the graduat-
ng class of 192J). Should the Shopo-
more class remain intact during the
next two years of school they will
be the largest ever to graduate from
the hibh school.
On the basis of the total enroll
ment of 266, the girls outnumber
the boys. There are 149 girls in all
classes and 117 boys. The girls out
number the boys two to one in the
senior class with forty-one girls and
wenty boys, while the Juniors are
more evenly divided with thirty-four
girls and thirty-one boys in the class.

and thirty-one boys. The treshman
class is the only one in wnich the
boys have the majority as in this
las there are thirty-seven boys and
twenty-nine girls.
Outside points furnish a very large

local school derives tuition. Murray

40 Posses in State Search for Seward
Yeggs; Thought to Be En
Boute to Kansas City
While detectives and emergency
policemen guarded the highways in-
to Omaha late Wednesday, four un-
masked bandits, who early Wednes-
day robbed the First National bank
of Seward, of $6,500, disappeared
"somewhere in Nebraska."
Omaha police.on guard with an
airplane, radio and machine guns in
the hands of 40 men. were of the
opinion the bandits may be headed
south with a plan of hiding away
n the North End underworld of
Kansas City, Mo.
Lincoln authorities, on a rumor
the bandits were in the city limits,
threw out a cordon armed with riot
guns and machine guns to guard
against the bandits' escape through
the city.
Battle to Death.
This is the first major bank rob
bery in Nebraska since a group of
Nebraska bankers offered $5,000 for
each "dead bank bandit."
A battle to the death is feared
should any of the score of posses
meet the bandits.
Omaha was surrounded by detec
tives and other policemen armed
with sawed-off shotguns. There
were 40 men, posted on every road
into, the city.
Every bridge over the Missouri
and Platte rivers was guarded.
The bandits escaped from Seward.
the first county seat west of Lin
coln, in a maroon-colored auto with
a Douglas county licensp. They were
seen six miles north of Seward, and
then came a report" they had been
seen west of Boaver Crossing, which
is southwest of Seward.
Whether the bandits doubled back
on their tracks, or delayed coming
into Omaha until dark, is a matter
of dispute among authorities.
In the bank the bandits used re
volvers, not machine guns, but Burl-
ington employes who saw the bandit
auto said the quartet in it wa3 arm-
ed with machine guns.
On entering the bank iie four
ordered J. Carter, cashier: Arthur to the old Mission House and a pho
Trute, assistant cashier, and Julia tograph of the governor and his party
Berry and Matilda Ahlschwede,
bookkeepers, to lie on the floor.
They handled the men roughly, but
wprc polite to the bookkeepers.
They then scooped up money from
the tellers' cages, getting $2,800,
and took $3,700 in negotiable bonds
from the vault. No money has been
missed from the vault.
Omaha police believe the bandits.
as it their habit, will use several
autos.

proved a report terminated by the
