Page 8 S RESERVE RECORB September 20, 1945 Seven 'R' Men Return, Soccer Prospects Promising The varsity soccer squad held its first practice of the year on Saturday when al- most 40 boys turned out. Everyone had plenty of pep but a rather noticeable lack of condition slowed up the scrimmage. The turnout uncovered some promising newcom- ers to the squad as well as the returning lettermen and their cohorts on last year's squad. In every division of the team there seems to be a strong foundation. Glenn Carter will again hold one of the fullback positions. The halfs also are well represented by members of last year's squad. Skip Newell is again out for right half and Corky Phillips, another veteran, will probably take over in the center position left open by ex-captain Rollie Cockley. There will be a lot of hot competition for the halfback spots. Dan Collister and Bill Cleminshaw, two other prospects, are both back from last year's team. The line is, as usual, crowded with new and old material. Kennedy will probably be the center and starting point for the new line. The wing positions are open to several prospects, Mac Pierce and Terry Garrigan on the right and Rich Nichols on the left. It seems, however, that most of the wing men on the previous year's squad are trying to get the job on the 1'ight fiank. Chuck Critchfield returns again to the right inside spot. He will receive plenty of competition from Tom Clark and Bill Marton. On the left Paul Russell and Dave Sheldon seem to be in front in stiff' compe- tition. On the whole, the squad showed up well. Fairly soon 'Coach Roundy is expecting t0 have a well organized team. illi-i 'Among Rescrve's present crop of ath- letes is one James Roush, "R" Club and varsity board member. Although his ml' merous wrest- Q ling triumphs overshadow his other abilities, Jim does parti- cipate in other sports. About this time of year, we of Re- serve begin to recall just how well Jim plays football. Right halfback and "iron man" of last year's team, the "Peninsula Flash" is counted on to lend power to this year's squad and help lift it out of the cellar in which it has too long resided. Wishing him and all the other members of the team the best of luck, we tip our hats to "R" man Jim Roush. J 'im Roush, Kent Roosevelt Game ls But Nine Days Awayp Football Squad Enters Third Week's Practice Just two weeks ago, prospective candi- dates for the 1945 football team churned over the turf in the first workout of the season. Since then the squad has been giv- ing "all it's got" during the long prac- tices that coaches Theibert, Ellis, and Ha- bel have been directing. Extensive drills of calisthenics and running have turned stiff, aching bodies into tough, lithe, human machines prepared to take the hard exer- cise and physical beatings that are part and parcel of America's fall sport. The boys have taken everything that the coaches could throw at them and have come back for more with peppy shouts and renewed vigor. Short scrimmages have given the team a taste of action and an opportunity to apply the coaching it has received. Be- side numerous bruises and scratches, the squad has sustained very few bad injuries, and it hopes to keep up this record. Some potentials for the line-up are pointed out in the following review. George "glue fingers" Vaught seems to be holding down the right end position very success- fully, and his remarkable ability to hang on to passes promises to be a threat on the Green and White offensive. Don Kra- mer's weight combined with plenty of drive in the right tackle spot will prove valu- able to the team on both offense and de- fense. Bob Dewey and Dick Kaylor, at left and right guards respectively, are two of a kind. Although light, they display SCHEDULES Football Schedule for 1945 Sept. 29-Kent Roosevelt .....

Paul Shepherd, short but hefty, owns an exten- sive collection of deadly blocks and tackles which he uses generously, both while cen- tering the ball and while backing up the line. Jim "Tiny" Miller has proved his ability to hit and hit hard from the left tackle position, much to the regret of op- posing teammates in scrimmages. Nat Howard, shifting from the backfield to right end, is learning the tricks of his new position rapidly, and this knowledge com- bined with his drive and tackling ability promises to make him a valuable member of the team. Going into the backfield we find quar- terback Dave Nicholson whose ball-hand- ling and deception will be a threat to any enemy. Jim "snake hips" Roush, return- ing to the right half slot, will again tote the pigskin for the Tebmen, using the same fight and shiftiness that made him such a yard-gainer last year. Denis Sullivan displays speed from left halfback position and his ability to knife through the line will prove dangerous to any opponent. Bob "Cowboy" Joslyn combines weight and speed with vicious tackling to make him- self a sharp thorn in the opposition's side. In addition to this line-up there are several other players who have promise and who will give the other boys a real fight for their positions. 1 340 1 .313 gs. KN Pi fiflraf if is-eiigvif-"E'5 Q.

Column Zi The Chefs tive had more wind when he blew all the flour out of a bowl before his Green ad- versary had a chance to take a breath. However, the Greens made up for this close decision by taking the next event. This contest was between a blindfolded Green and a White likewise blindfolded. With a piece of sponge rubber each contestant, ly- ing on the floor at half a towel's length, tried to swat the other, locating his adver- sary by the direction of his voice. To close the game session two men were se- lected from each side to push a baseball across the gym floor with their noses. Big Jim Miller of the Greens beat the other contestants by a nose. When custodian Theibert had cleaned up the door, the movie was ready to begin. After the playing of the "Star-Spangled Banner," "Laura" was shown with quips and explanations by Jack Melcher, who was later quieted by public demand. The evening was indeed a suc- CPSS.

Therefore the RECORD begins with this issue an intro- duction of Re- scrve's new fac- ulty. W i 1 l i a m Moos, Jr.,comes from St. Cloud, M i n n e s o t a, attended school. Majoring in architecture, he spent four years at St. John's University and one at the University of Minnesota. Since then he has done various types of work, all per- taining to architecture. At Reserve he will teach industrial arts, besides offering his invaluable experience to all students interested in his Held or kindred subjects. In his room on the second Hoor of Cutler are just a few photographs-examples of his hobby, photography. He is interested in everything connected with architectural plan, even the composition of a news sheet. He has also studied large scale planning- modern cities and the like. IVilliam Moos, Jr. where he was born and In explaining why he came to Reserve, Mr. Moos said that the pleasure he gets from teaching boys of high school age had a great deal to do with it. Mr. Moos is a young man of medium height and weight with curly brown hair and a closely knit body. His manner is friendly and cordial, and his good.sense of humor is a strong asset in his favor. ,M ,,,, ..f cg? fQi ,, 5 . X-'fl ff 1 ,197 jx!! 9 xl , :fx ,Ill .1 X , K o Q ill 'W al ..Q, ff!

RESERVE it RECORD O VOLUME XXI,-No. 3 N , , , cc W . . -----g--- - Huosou, omo. SEPTEMBER 21. 1945 Acaclemy Announces Plans for Forwarcl-looking Campaign To Raise l,000,000 for Construction of New Buildings To honor the heroes, living and dead, of Western Reserve Acadcmy and the donor of the Ellsworth endowment, a 125th An- niversary and Memorial Program has been evolved by the Trustees, the Headmaster i and the Faculty. This Memorial Program will ' be completed in 1951. The success of this Anniversary and Memor- ial Program is partly as- sured by the gift of Mr. Ellsworth. Only the in- come of this generous gift is available for the school's use. The prin- cipal must remain in- tact. This income can be used only for current expenses. Conse- quently, the school over a period of twenty years has been able to build only two new structures. The trustees now plan to con- struct at least three new buildings on the campus. The total cost of these will be ap- proximately one million dollars. Mr. Robert S. Wilson These new buildings will be living mem- orials to the 34 sons of the academy who gave their lives in the service of their coun- try and those who served in the war. A memorial to the late Dean Harlan N. Wood, who for 38 years devoted his life to the interest of the academy, will also be pro- vided. The new buildings tliat will complete the 125th Anniversary and Memorial Program include: THE MEMORIAL GYMNASIUM In the past proper athletic training has been difficult due to the size of the present gymnasium. Only one basketball squad can practice at a time because there is only one court. Wrestling squads and tumbling classes have been forced to work under cramped conditions. Part of the money received in the Mil- lion Dollar Campaign will ge into the building of a new gymnasium which will honor all the students of Western Reserve Academy who fought in this war. In the future the students of the school will be able to receive the athletic training for which they are naturally adapted. SCIENCE BUILDING In recent years there has been a tremen- dous increase in scientific research and equipment and study. The most modern facilities will be available in this new sci- ence building to provide a good foundation career for any for a successful scientific Reserve graduate. Also included in this structure will be the workshops for machine and woodwork. A NEW LIBRARY AND AUDITORIUM The heart of any educational institution is its library. Reserve is indeed proud of the present library, but the time has come for its expansion to accommodate the books contributed in the last few years. The addi- tion of a well lighted and spacious library will indeed contribute greatly to academic success. ' Without an auditorium the school has :lone little along' the lines of dramatics and 'similar school activities. The addition of an auditorium will greatly add to the de- velopment of the school's educational facilities. The campaign will fully get under way in the middle of October. It should be ter- minated by the end of December this year. Early next m o n t h friends of the academy will receive a beautiful illustrated booklet in which will be scenes of the campus taken this summer by Cay and Krupp, photographers of Akron. This 2.0- page pamphlet was set up by one of the chief ' lay-out men of TIME, LIFE and FORTUNE. The campaign is un- der the chairmanship of Lewis B. Williams, chairman of the board of the National City Bank of Cleve- land. William D. Shilts, secretary of The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company, is the vice chairman and Executive Director. Dean Mickel has been named the manager of the campaign. The fund headquarters is lo- M 12 I.e'1v'is I I . ll'1'llia ms Vesper Speaker Dr. Harold C.

Dr. Phil- lips, a graduate of Denison Univer- sity and Union Theological Seminary, has been pastor of the Cleveland church since 1927. Because he is in much demand as a speaker, it has been a long time since Dr. Phillips has found it convenient to visit the academy.

The trustees cordially in- vite the support of all alumni and friends, convinced that the hope of a better world springs from the ever increasing power of sound education." M r. William D. Shiite
