THE SECRET OF TREASURE
MOUNTAIN
By John Clarke.
Synopsis: Jack and his Uncle
are on their way to Treasure Moun-
tain in quest of a treasure. They
find a dead man by a spring who
has been stabbed. Jack's Uncle is
nearly killed by a knife hurled
through the air. It is the same as
the one that was found in the dead
man's back. One of the servants
has just come in with a message
which he said two men gave him to
deliver to Jack.

They started on the next morLm-
ing but before they left, Jack and
his Uncle loaded their pistols and
rifles. Alar, Rasu, and Kashua,
their most trusted servants were
also armed. Alar had a pistol, Rasu
a rifle, and Kashua, a big man of
six feet, carried a hatchet and a
club. The other two servants had
knives in their belts. In the dis-
tance they could see the top of
Treasure Mountain.
On the way a rifle shot was fired,
not with the intent of killing but
with the purpose of scaring. An-
other warning was thrown to them
[that night. Sentinels were posted.
From eight to twelve o'clock Alar
and the two servants with knives
watched. Then from twelve to four
o'clock Jack and Kashua watched.
From four o'clock to six Jack's
Uncle and Rasu watched. At six
o'clock everyone arose and prepar-

day and they would be there. Would

Students in Professor Verner
W. Crane's American History
Lecture (Tuesday at ten) were
charmed and delighted at the
inspiring lecture on "The Rise
of American Sports." Epeially
choice were the remarks about
Lulu Loomer, the demon wo-
men's walking champion of the
UnitedI Stjtes, and about John
L. Sullivaan, the first boxing
champ. We were hoping Profes-
sor Crane would break down
and give us his predictions as to
pennant possibilities in the
American League for 1932, but
he 0idn't. Too bad, professor,
too bad.
