HE GRA P e entennial Class? One hundred years ago the place where our sch l oo stands was an unbroken wilderness. To the south along the Maumee River, a little village of sturdy pioneers was establishing itself. No schools, no churches, none of the things that make for comfortable or cultural living were then established. As you graduate in June, remember that all the civic advantages which you now enjoy are the heritage of that little settlement made h one undred years ago. We offer our congratulations and best Wishes as you go out from Woodward High School. We hope that you as pioneers of the succeeding one hundred years may inaugurate a period of progress and culture as great as that of the past. C? Miss Angela M.

CROUSE Dean of Freshman Boys N THE AUTUMN of the year, a sturdy group of energetic youngsters entered a new station of life in the halls of Woodward. Leaving behind them their old experiences and customs attained in the eight years at elementary school, they faced new hardships and obstacles in adjusting themselves to new rules. They acquired for themselves the name, Freshmen. Bewildered in their strange surround- ings, new friends had to be made and oppressive studies to be taken over. Lacking as yet in the qualities of leadership and service, they were excluded from certain organizations and various programs. The right to organize was denied them. Although checked by these difiicult obstructions, these Freshmen fought and won. They held bravely to their purpose of conquering the unknown realms of learning. TEADILY they pushed their way forward to earn distinction and to be recog- nized for their scholastic and athletic achievements as were the upper class- men. Their ambition has been realized, for they have placed many pupils on the honor roll. Those listed are: Loriece Bassett, Jean Douglas, Bertha Hascal, Phyllis Hendrickson, Betty Kapff, Dorothy Kincaid, Agnes Leece, Clara Leibovich, Alice Morse, Phyllis Mae Nowak, Jeanne Marie Rydarn, Helen Scheidler, Betty Stadler, Virginia Terry, Geraldine Zawodny, Corwin Brandt, Fred Braun, Leonard Coopremao, Horatio J ex, James Kloster, Robert Knoke, Ted Kozlowski, Samuel Laderman, Will- iam Stein, and Roy Winn. The careful guidance and cooperation of their class deans, Miss Anne Wetter- man and S. B. Crouse, have carried them successfully through the year. With such a fine beginning, we know that these Freshmen will resume our old places as we pass on into the world. We have high hopes for the future that they will carry further the traditions of the school and bring more honor and distinction to Woodward.

Hx 2 QS' A .ff 1.-fi, tif' if ,fy ,YZ ,Z ,ff PURRED on by the achievements and knowledge acquired in their first year, the pupils advanced astep and were called Sophomores. They were no longer considered the inferior class but could look down upon the wide-eyed students who had taken their places. The course was a little easier and the surroundings more pleasant. Acquaintances from the year before were renewed and more friendships were made. As Sophomores they assumed aresponsibility-that of organizing and electing class officers. For the first time in the history of the class, the Sophomores are headed by a girl. Capable in guiding the class through the year is June Martin, class president. Her ever ready assistants are Fred Saba, vice presidentg Evelyn Moore, secretary, Lorraine Barnes, treasurerg Helen Trautrnan, reporterg and James Brubaker, sergeant-at-arms. The executive committee consists of Esther Urbanski, Robert Smith, and Kathryn Braunschweiger. Why The Chimes Rang, the first activity of the class, was given by the members of the Play Shop. It was presented to the Mothers' club on December 16, and to the faculty and student body on December 20. One of the most colorful dances of the year was the Sophomore dance, April Rhythm, held April 9, in the Woodward ballroom. Decorations corresponded with the name. On March 11, the two Sophomore one-act plays, The Real Gloria and the Ideal Spotf' were presented. The class owes much of its development and success as a group to Miss Grace Cronk and Clyde Meek, class deans.

Due credit must be given them for the courage and procedure they have taken in this Work. The first marked feature is the very unusu- al cover, the first of its kind to be used in our school. There is always a feeling that people tire ofold styles, the change was made to give the students something different, something better, and something more appealing than that used in previous years. Instead of arranging the senior pictures organizations, classes, and activities in front of the book and the Tattlers in the back, the book has been divided into three sections corresponding with the seasons that school is in session. The main purpose was to break the monotony of grouping all the Tattlers to- gether. More pictures have also been added repre- senting the different activities of the school. Individual pictures of every student have been used in place of groups. Gale Weaner, editor-in-chief, with his helpful staff has much to be complimented for. Others working with him are Richard Shumaker and Michael Jakcsy, assistant and junior assistant editors, respectively, Jess Mininger,business managerg Chester Zytkus, junior assistant business managerg and Alice Frankowski, circulation manager. ' Other staff members are: Martha sports editor, with Ernest Swan assist bookkeeperg Ruth Wegener and Zebalee gattfet agtajff 4'iD45D Q-Q 'f29 OODWARD may well compliment herself on having a fine news- paper staff and school paper, the Tattler. The paper is a most welcome feature to almost every student and faculty member at Woodward. Praise should be given to the staff for its efforts in publishing the Tattler', every week. Woodward is one of the two high schools in the city fortunate in having the printing done in school. This year the staff has undertaken a larger task. It has changed its dress from ten point type, which has been used for many years, to eight point type. This requires more work for the staff, as one-third more material is needed to fill the pages. The staff consists of Aaron Novick, editor- in-chiefg Doris Shortt and William Loerke, assistant editors, Edward Shapiro, business managerg Martha Murzynski and Virginia Ignatowicz, news editorsg Theresa Lipper and Norma Jean Allen, feature editors, and Robert Shuff and Lulu Belle Holbrook, boys' and girls' sports editors respectively.

'ENGLISH TEACHERS ADDED TO FACULTY Two New Office Girls Placed On Staff, Teacher Married The new fall term brings changes in the English depart- ment and one new oflice girl to Woodward. Miss Catherine D. Brown, teacher of Spring Junior high school last year, will teach Eng- lish I. Miss Brown replaces Miss Francis Sivers who was trans- ferred to Libbey. Dave Weisberg, former Wood- ward student, will conduct classes in English I and commer- cial work, having two junior busi- ness training classes. Obtaining permission to teach English, Miss Betty Nelson will have classes in English I besides three classes of business Eng- lish. Replacing Miss Barbara Smith, office girl, is Miss Betty Perkins who will have charge of attend- ance. Miss Isabelle LaRue is at pres- ent assisting with the office work. Added to our list of our newly married teachers, is Miss Doro- thy Bardo, English teacher, who now will be addressed as Mrs. Matheny. Pupils Allowed Two Clubs One Major Cabinet Office Following the new club sched- ule, students will be allowed to join not more than two clubs of their own choosing and may hold only one major office. The Student Council will not be included as a club and only the editor and business manager of the Sa a and Tattler respec- tively will not be eligible for an- other office. To enable more pupils to enter into the school activities and gain experience in club work is the main purpose of this change. Painters Absorbed In Job Cover Art Dept's Murals Smells of the paint and plaster used to improve Woodward's walls brought smiles of apprecia- tion to teachers' faces---that is, all but one. While praises rained upon the paint jobs in other rooms, Miss June Anderson looked upon her walls with dis- may, thinking dark and doleful thoughts. The painters had com- pletely and effectively covered the Polish murals which bord- ered her room. As a result, the pictures which had gained pres- tige in school will no longer at- tract and hold the attention of admiring mms. . . R. K. SHELINE NAMES WEANER SAGA HEAD Shumaker Made Assistant,-.

Right now you can ad- dress my mail to the Ford V-87 and as yours truly gasped unbe- lievingly she hastened to explain that until she finds the apart- ment for which she is looking, she has all her belongings packed into her new car and it is, figur- atively speaking, her present home. No Dead Heads Fewer Complimentary passes have been issued for football and basketball games by the city high schools in the last few years, to get away from the pass evil, stated C. M.

TO BE ENDED DEC. 1 Stands To Cost 345,000 and Will Seat 500 More Students Remodeling work on the boys' gym at the cost of 345,000 which will permit the seating of five hundred more basketball fans is expected to be completed De- cember 1, in time for the opening of the basketball season. As Woodward's basketball teams are supported well and aleading squad is usually produced, this addition is considered a neces- sity. Under the new seats a recre- ation room and storage room for the print shop are to be built. On the first floor a storage room, hospital, emergency room, nurses room, boys' examination room, and hand ball courts are to be added. The construction work, which is a W.P.A. project, is not ex- pected to interfere with either the boys' or girls' gym classes, since the early fall classes are held out of doors, and very little construction work is to be done in the gym proper. Bears Guests Of Cowboys In Football Season Opener Starting against Libbey on September 25, Woodward will play an eight game grid schedule. Two new schools will compete against the Blue and White this fall. Van Wert's gridders will be guests of the Bears on November 7, and Maumee, familiar to Woodward basketball patrons, will come here the following week-end, November 14. a Fort Wayne will be host to the Polar Bears on their only out of town jaunt ofthe football season.

TEACHERS TRAVEL, OUT FOR FOOTBALL Coach Art Smith Assisted By Gilbert Harre, Dick Davis Opening sessions of football practice under .the direction of Coaches Art Smith, Dave McMur- ray and Homer Hanham, found 43 boys out for various positions. After receiving equipment from Managers Whitey Hood and Kenny Walker on Monday, the boys began work on September 1. Linemen found Gil Harre, former All-City tackle from Woodward and All-American from O.S.U., an invaluable source of informa- tion while Dick Davis, star back- field man of two years ago, helped with the prospective backs. Three and a half days of inten- sive work preceded the squads lining up for the first scrimmage. In the struggle between the first two squads the competition was so tight that but three points were made, these on a place kick by Johnny Golembiewski. Both teams scored touch-down against the third string. After Friday there was a lay off until the first day of school. .

Tattler Announces Policies, Requests Cooperation TODAY all literate Woodward students are reading the first edition of the Tattler containing only one sheet and issued free. Next week the regular four page issue will be published and sold at the lowest price possible, one cent. As the Tattler is the only local high school newspaper en- tirely the work of pupils from editing to printing, one hundred percent cooperation is asked from the student body. Each week the Tattler will reg- ularly roll off the presses contain- ing varied copy from lighthumor I thereby furnishing Woodward news for every student. By presenting Woodward news as fair as it can, the Tattler will be the voice ofthe people. Walking Woodward's halls, one is struck by the friendliness exhibited everywhere. Every- body smiles and says hello to everyone else as if they really meant it. p No matter how much the stud- ents may have fumed or blustered before school we feel certain that deep down in they reallv are glad BECOME FARMERS West Visited By Trio, Miller Studies In Michigan, Two Farm The wi.d wooly, wide open' spaces beckoned this summer to a trio of Woodward instructors, Miss Laura Adams, Miss Louise Tippett, and Miss Rozella Wood- rich, who journeyed westward on a 10,000 mile trip in Miss Tip- pett's car. They visited the Red- wood highway, Petrified forest, Glacier park, and a real, honest- to-goodness rodeo. Miss Amie Miller spent her summer studying at Ann Arbor, traveling through Canada where she visited the famous Quints, and climbed the Adirondack mountains in eastern United States. John Grodi and Henry Gerber became members of the B. F. A. fBackyard Farming Associationl this summer.

Numerous Reasons Offered By Pupils For Taking French Questioning her first year stu' dents as to why they are taking French, Miss Adrienne Curtis discovered that the foremost eason was because of college redits.

To be able to begin work immediately, they have elected their officers as follows: president, Marie Hirzelg vice president, Richard Baderg secre- tary, Gertrude Schafer, and treas- urer, Violet Sheckler. Other offi- cers are publicity, Harry Parker and Laura Narewskig property managers, Zygmond Kaszmarek and Charlotte Kenyong and stage manager, Chester Pawlee. Clarence Ball announced that two operettas will be given this year besides preparing for the main event, the May Festival. As the first production, a comedy, Time In has been chosen to be present sometime in December. The action of this play takes place in a radio studio. Miss Bessie Werum states that Woodward's orchestra is the smallest in the city. In spite of this fact, the group is planning to organize a trio composed of a piano, cello, and violin, as well as a string quartet. Dan Kryzaniak, last year's drum major, will again hold the same position. The band expects to march in full uniform at the first football game of the season to be held at Libbey, September 25. Boys Would Crowd Out Girls In Home Economics Classes Statistics obtained from the home economics department arouse the question of whether the boys or the girls will pre- dominate in the kitchen. Enough boys had selected this subject to completely crowd out all other classes. However, the girls were given preference, al- lowing only one hour to the ad- vanced boyis class. This special group of 15 seniors will be in- struted by Miss Angela Abair. At present, 218 students are enrolled in cooking and 139 in cooking. Honor Society Will Enroll 10 Percent Of Senior Class Headed by Aaron Novick, new- ly elected president of Wood- ward's Honor society, plans are being made for an instalation ceremony when 10 percent ofthe upiper senior class will be admit- te .

Members will continue in this group as juniors and seniors. Next year only juniors will be per- mitted to j oing the following year, only seniors. One of the presentations of this club each year will be the sopho- more class play. Several Room Changes Made Within Woodward's Portals If you wander into rooms 240 and 230, donit think that L. J. Robie has suddenly turned to nursing or that Miss Louise Tip- pett teaches geometry. Several room changes have taken place. Miss Amie Miller has moved to 230, and Miss Hazel Coy's famous treatments for cuts and bruises can be secured in room 240. Miss Tippett in 147 and Mr. Robie in 154 have given up climbing stairs for exercise. Since pounding noises annoy Miss Bardo land every other Woodward attendantj, she haunts room 241 where the echoes sound less like war. Best Movies Chosen Listed among the best films of the month are China Clipperf' Gorgeous Hussy, Last of the Mohicansj' The Texas Rang- ers, My Man Godfrey, and Swing Time. These movies are a few of those selected in a joint estimate by the East Coast Preview Board for Musical Films. 1 New Senior Here A newcomer in Woodward's halls, Lucian Jablonski, senior, recently returned from Warsaw, Poland, where he studied two years. Lucian states seven subjects are e priv- required of all Students hp. TATTLER WILL HAVE TYPE SIZE CHANGED Hugh Montgomery, Adviser, Orders Eight Point For Paper A radical change will occur in the Tattler of October 2 pending the arrival of 200 pounds of 8 point type ordered by Hugh Montgomery, print shop instruct- er and adviser of the Tattler. This change in style will cost 35150 of which the Tattler will pay S100 and the Saga, 350. One third more stories will be need- ed- to. fill the column, thereby bringing more news to subscrib- ers of the paper. .That legibility of the stories will not be decreased is amply proven by a glance at any teach- er's curriculm schedule which is also printed in 8 point type. Class Of Twenty Will Study Essentials Of Library Work Miss Stella Sawtelle's library class, composed of fifteen girls and five boys, will meet every third hour Monday to learn the fundamentals of library work. Every student is assigned a study period during which he has charge of the shelves and assists in straightening and taking care of the books. Enrolled in the class are the following: Dorothy Siebenaller, Richard Barchent, Ruth Linker, Marie Achniger, Pearl Blalock, Marian Drennan, Jane Fink, Roy Irons, Evaughn Joseph, Lenore Limpf, Agnes Liwo, Henrietta Rump, Floyd LeGron, Virginia Schlievert, Mary Louise Mc- Dowell, Henrietta Rump, Twila Rodehelfer, Blanche Ruhland, Genevieve Tochman, Sophie Wilkolek, and H a r ol d W il- liams. .

URING the coming football season, Woodward's Polar Bears will have certain serious obstacles to overcome. Not the least among them will be the playing of all their contests on a foreign gridiron. Will loyal Woodwardites give their team the backing it deserves even if they have to go to Scott's field to do it? We think they will. A General Tread URELY, everyone has noticed the paint- ing and repairing of the building. The boys' gym, too, is undergoing a change. These improvements should serve as the basis of a new enthusiasm in the mind of every student. Each pupil should begin a project of his own, the Tattler suggests renewing a school spirit which might have been frayed by these long, hot days in summer. No'w, at the beginning of the term, is the time for every Woodwardite to Spledge his best. Bargains In Fun HREE years ago Woodward students were offered an activities ticket which enabled pupils to attend all major school activities at a great saving. This pass in- sured a large backing for all functions. For the Past two years, this plan has been a success. Thls year Clyde Meek, athletic director, states that twenty-one events will be in- cluded 1n the ticket. By means of a well- Pla-Dfled tlme payment plan, the amount of money required for each payment has been. reduced below the luxury level. With the thought in our minds that we're only in high school once, this year . . . . . . t PRINCIPAL POINTS By C. C. LaRue REETINGS to the Freshmen of 1936 and the Seniors of 1940. Over six hun- dred strong you are entering one of the mo-st interesting phases of your life. The United States Department of Educa- tion through its commissioner says that only four of ten will graduate from high school. In the past our average has been a little high- er. We trust that you as a class will increase that quota still more. We hope you have entered high school with the determination to get an education. This will better your condition, the condition of your city and the nation. In spite of what uninformed and unthinking people may tell you, the progress of the world depends upon iaducation. Get all you can before it is too ate. Fresh Frolicking Frosh With the European warfare and Woodward knock-knocking, the freshmen probably think there's a war going on here. Using bean- shooters as weapons and teachers as targets, they might start a real commotion, so in order to keep peace and contentment in the old homestead, we'll explain that it's only the Works Progress Administration. John Sackrnan wants to know what study halls are for. will some kind teacher tell him the big secret? Katherine Sherman, a shy little miss, was so bewildered the first day that she lost her way in the cafeteria and couldn't find her way out. Buddy Berdue, with the reputation of being one of the noisiest freshies at Wood- ward, is acquiring the distinction ofbeing one of the craziest, too. Frisky, flitty, freshy, freshmen, thus begin theig trials, tears, and happy years at Wood- war . Round and Round Service with a smile, says Betty Greiner when Alice Shasteen, Catherine Hosanna, and Bonnie Jean Zirwes pile a foot-high stack of books on her in the north-end school bus--- Old flames burn anew when last year's sen- iors return to Alma Mater to see the gym addition project foh yeah?l Norm Zimmerman accidently ran across Lillian Barabasz, and Jack Hartwig happened on Evelyn Laytart in his meandering. Then there's Chuck', Jas- tremski who's been seen with that Cherry girl---Andrew Skaff, freshie, who has decided to get all A's, is already breathlessly await- ing the first dance---Wayne Dunn, Vocational's former lady-killer, has already been practis- ing panther-eyes on our pretty misses, and hets a senior too, so you lovesick boys better watch your femmes. Double Trouble If you see E. L. Clark, guidance director at Woodward, chewing paper schedules don't be alarmed. His is the job of settling 40 Vo- cational high freshies into our already over- flowing freshman ranks. Also there is his twin problem---not two problems---just one problem about two. Last year, Mr. Clark matched the schedules of all twins, but before long most of them asked to be changedg so this year he did just opposite. Then a set of twins who have been together through all their school years, re- quested identical schedules. Mr. Clark asks wearilykfls it any wonder Among 0ur Friends Freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and sen' iors lend me your eyes. Nine years or more ago the Tattler started exchanging news- papers with schools all over the United States. Following this precedent we will insert bits of interesting news items and humor gleaned from the columns of the thirty-five high school papers received here. Thirteen high schools contributed to the mathematical exhibit at the University of Wisconsin last May. On exhibit were plan- meters, telescopes, slide rules,and the value of pi computed to 705 places. The Craftsman, Boys' Technical high school, Milwaukee, Wis. Ti-, i Advice fo' Chillun 1. Don't let any seniors fool you. Those holes covered with venetian blinds that you see in every room aren't ventilators at all, but tunnels from the cages where Woodward polar bears are kept. 2. You will be reported to the Student Court if you become known as a crack- stepper-over, so watch it while pounding the corridor tiles. 3. In case of fire, the safest place is in your own locker. 4. To save time in going from iioor to floor, don't hesitate to make use of the elevator located across from the office. 5. School begins at 8:30 A. M. There are still some freshmen who don't know. 6. During rainy weather, students are re- quired to enter through the courts to elim- inate slippery stairs. The autogyro is both efficient and economical for this purpose. 7. Home work in most schools is consid- ered a waste of time and Woodward is no exception. 8. Seat numbers in the auditorium are to be used as a guide for bicycle parking. The eighty-five kiddies who ride veloci- pedes can procure licences and parking assignments from the stationer's desk any time before November 31. Fantastik Fakts Just think what the proposed blocking off of the east corridor will mean to you in shoe leather! It normally takes 196 steps to negotiate the distance between the doors at extreme ends of that hall. Now it will require 266 steps if you go around via the west corridor, or 244 if you traverse that hall on the second floor by using the stair- way. Now re-adjust brain and absorb---there are 76 tables in the cafeteria, each table top 125 sq. ft. An average person uses a space of 1 sq. in. in which to write his name. The table top also contains 1800 sq. inches. It takes an average person 4 seconds to write his name. Taking all this into con- sideration it would take exactly 50 weeks, 3M days, or 1 school year, 10 weeks ISM days to cover each table top with 1800 signatures. To top that off, if Pop Raymond caught you he'd make you clean it up with your tongue which would take 5 times as long, so if you have any such ambitions you may as well take several post-graduate courses in advance. Another interesting statistic was furnish- ed by Tony Anello and Ed Pelczardki who counted!! fyou heard mel the blocks in the floors of our halls. There are exactly 122,852 li..

FOR OPENING GAME WITH LIBBEY Art Smith Discovers Kicking Ability Of Zaremba, Gosciniakg Scrimmage Gives Coaches Idea Of Squad Under Fire After three weeks of intensive practice, Woodward's Polar Bears are striving for their first game, the Libbey tilt, which opens the inter-city race. Coach Art Smith and his assistants have boys segregated into three squads with several scrimmages a week. Blocking and tack- ling are being stressed as the things which win ball games.

These grid authorities make their choices known through the Illus- trated Football Annual. Before attending T. U., Boyd was a hard runner and a deadly tackler. Howard Brown, end, also of Toledo has been placed on the All-American check list. This means he is a leading candidate for the All-American team. Important Changes Made In Football Rules For 1936 Two important changes in the football rules will become effect- ive during the 1936 season. A ball which is punted and does not go over the line of scrim- mage can be picked up and ad- vanced by either team. The old rule made the ball dead if the team which kicked, recovered the ball. If a full team is not on the field at the beginning ofthe game or at the half, the team without all of its players is penalized 15 yards, instead of the ball being placed on the 35 yard line and ad- vanced by the team which won the toss. ' Joe Bloom May Take Charge of Boys' Intra-mural Games Homer Hanham and Art Smith are trying to arrange with the W.P.A. to have Joe Bloom, former gym instructor here, man- age the 1936-1937 intra-murals. The schedule will start with pass and tap football and con- tinue through the year with bas- ketball, volleyball, horseshoes, track, and ending up next spring with indoor-baseball. Approximately sixteen teams are expected to participate. As soon as they are organized and managers are appointed, the teams will swing into action. No changes will be made in the rules of the games. be used in the event that Barney Banasiak or Johnny Golembiew- ski are disabled at game time. Foremost candidates for back- field positions besides Golem- biewski and Banasiak are Bob Stack, Ed Pelczarski, Chuck Hos- kins, Tony Anello, Edwin Bialor- ucki, and Simon Hodge. Leading line candidates are Joe Barbara, center, Bob Shuff, Ray Stoykoff, and Tubby Balish, guards, Joe Wichowski, Al Greenwood, and Chester Kaz- mierczak, tackles, and Leonard Nareski and Ervin Klocko, ends. Stubby Krell looks like a first string guard if his knee turns out all right. Dave McMurray and Homer Hanham are filling their rolls as assistant coaches. Local Football Authorities Begin Season With Banquet All officials, coaches, athletic board members, faculty mana- gers, and principals of Toledo high schools inaugurated anoth- er grid season by attending a banquet, The Kickoff. Expenses were paid by contri- butions from each school. Principal C. C. LaRue was im- pressed by the number of former Woodward graduates who are now newspaper men in Toledo. Among them are Seymour Roth- man, Bladeg Paul Schrader, ofthe Timesg Marion Jaworski, and Merritt Deke Green, both of the Newsbee. All of these men attended the banquet.

Bitter purchased from Colo- rado was once used by Nikola Tesla, an Austrian spy in the United States, to send information to Austria at the be- ginning of the World War. Just before the war, Tesla became a naturalized citizen in this country. He built tall towers in Colorado Springs, Colorado, which were designed to trans- mit power by wireless. When the war broke out, he built what was at the ti ne the tallest tower in the world. He sent messages in code, con- cerning the United States, to Austria with this tower. An amateur in New York City exper- imenting with a wireless set picked up one of the communications and report- ed it to Washington where it was de- ciphered and traced to Tesla. After Tesla was deported and the tower dynamited his equipment was sold to a man in Colorado. Mr. Bitter became acquainted with this man and bought some very valuable radio sup- plies which are to be used in Wood- ward's radio classes. Upperclassmen Lead School In Number Of Work Permits From a total of 36 working permits and eight special permits issued, the senior and junior boys lead with 11 working permits issued by their dean, Raymond Sheline.

Crouse. From their dean, Miss Grace Cronk, sophomore girls received three working permits, while the sophomore boys have obtained one working permit and three special permits from Clyde Meek. Miss Anne Wetterman, freshman girls' dean, has not issued any permits up to date. Teachers will issue working permits and special permits upon request if it is absolutely necessary.

During his talk he explained the meaning of guid- ance and outlined what is being done in the public schools, using Woodward as an example. Motorman Runs Stickney Car 14 Years, New Busman J. E. Horner sat in a corner, running the Stickney car, not a nursery rhyme but real facts. Mr. Horner who has been on the Stickney line for fourteen years out of the twenty-three he has been with the C. T. C., testifiedof his own ac- cord to Principal LaRue, I have listen- ed to coversations and watched the students coming here. They are the nicest bunch of kids I ever have hauled. Entering at the opposite end of the building, those who ride the school bus regularly may or may not know that the driver, A. C. Frise, thinks them a fine lot. He steered the Adams Town- ship school bus for two years and worked on the West- Delaware bus line, but this is his first year as a carrier of Polar Bears.

CLUB REGULATIONS ARE MADE OFFICIAL Students Eligible For Two Clubs, Can Hold One Major Office Making the club regulations oflicial, which were suggested by a committee of investigation last year, was carried out by club advisers who met last Thurs- day. The first regulation provides that a pupil may not belong to more than two clubs. This does not include the Student Council, the Saga, the Honor society, or the Tattler. The second, that no pu- pil will be allowed to hold more than one major office. Position Defined Major offices are classified as presi- dent, vice-president, s e c r e t a r y, and treasurer of any club, president of the Student Council, editor and business manager of the Saga, and editor of the Tattler. Class officers are not included under this restriction. A student, there- fore, may hold a class position as well as one major office. A- other decision made was to form a committee of all club advisers, which will meet at the end of each semester to suggest improvements in the extra- curricular program at Woodward. Last year's committee of investi- gation included Miss Adrienne Curtis, Miss Stella Cornwell, Miss Louise Tip- pett, Mrs. Dorothy Matheny, Frank Duvendack, and Henry Van Gorder. Mrs. Matheny, Miss Dorothy Warner, Miss Curtis, Miss Edith Murphy, Miss Anne Wetterman, Miss Rozella Wood- rich, Mrs. Mary O'Brian, Miss Betty Nelson, Mrs. Marie Ersig, Frank Duven- dack, Lawrence Nuber, and E. R. Rike compose the group who met last Thurs- day with Henry Van Gorder as chair- man.

HO HAS not noticed an excess of dashing hither and yon at the beginning of every con- ference hour? This year, with the cooperation of all clubs and classes, an attempt will be made to stress prompt opening and dismissal of all meet- ings. Fourth hour has previously suffered disruption as a result of hang-overs from third hour. There is no reason why the halls during this pe. riod should not be as orderly as during the rest of the day. A suggestion, might be made to club pres- idents that late attendance would bar members from participating in meetings. Will you do your part? They Need You ONIGHT Woodward's Polar Bears will start in the intra-city football season. We can, as students of Woodward, prove our loyalty and school spirit by attending the game with the purpose of cheering our team to victory. Woodward's team this year needs the whole- hearted support of every loyal student. This aid is required to help the squad gain whatever 1am-Q13 they may. Woodwardites, the boys of Blue and White need your encouragement. Attend the Woodward-Libbey game. . Education, A Definition HE basic fundamental of education is the ability to see differences.

Anybody can see likenesses, but it takes an edu- cated person to discern differences, Think Before Signing S YOU know, officers are as important a part of efficient class organization as the main spring of a good watch. Many petitions for class positions are taken outwith no thought as to the subject's cooperative qualities, In Previous Years a common complaint has been Our class officers and meetings are lousy!

Silly Students Fanny Freshman roamed the halls Looking at pictures and staring at walls Wishing that she were home safe again And not learning numbers from one to ten. go home. Sophy Sophomore looking serene And disregarding all freshies in green He only spoke in four syllable words Talking loudly, so he could be heard. Johny Junior expanded his chest Conceited, dignified, looking his best While Jeannie Junior looked on in vain Watching him iiirt with curly-haired Jane. Digniiied Seniors watched the crowd Acting so snooty, snippy, and proud Expecting all Woodward to make a big fuss What would this old school do without us?' Bicycology Honk! Honkl Toot! Toot! Peep!

Then there are air cushions which might be attached to the handle bars for girls who are in favor of wider, softer- seats. ..i1..lil, Pleasant Personalities First impressions always stick...fat least with Wood- ward studentsj and there is no doubt about that fact that one of our new seniors, Lucian Jablonski, has really impressed them. His motto Csaid with a grin! is strictly business. A gay mood and bantering con- versations belie that he has taken six languages, gone for two years to a strict military school, and traveled on two continents. His many residences include Detroit, Warsaw, and Milanowek in Poland, and of course Toledo. When asked his opinion of Woodward he answered with an enthusiastic 'iOkay!,' In his opinion, French is the nicest language, fencing the best sport, and intelligent blondes the most desireable girls. Oh yesf' he admits with a blush my weakness is the weaker sex. This blonde, blue-eyed, six foot two, lad has ambitions to become either a chemical engineer or a doctor. Dislikes very few things, Except V. S. he says, Cgrinning all the time! so we wonder! Always Enjoying E reallytgood movie, or an' intelligent book, to the school curriculum.

Translation: Bruce is hurt, he raced a ford, he wrecked it, and Alice is hurt too, in fact she is dead. ---The Laurel, San Marcos, Texas. l Pupils' Pens Play Pranks Always looking for trouble, Tatty Snooper, the Tattler news-hound discovered, while leafing through Schedules, that the pens of many students have been playing tricks on them. Mrs. Matheny, evidently the pupils didn't want you to marry because you're still Miss Bardo to most of them. Recently a Mr. Sinner and Mir. Plipps were added to the faculty. Mr. Gerber, may we inform you that you have been spelling your name wrong through all these years? It really should be spelled Henry Guber. This also is being written for the benefit of Mr. McMarry, Annie Witterman, and Mr. Duvendale. Miss June Anderson and Mrs. Hella Anderson have changed positions, Miss Anderson teaching history and Mrs. Anderson, art. As an improvement, the Tattler Snooper suggests that a spelldown be held in the auditorium using the teachers' names for the contests. Girls Turn Indians Archery? What? Girls using bows and arrows. Tsk! Tsk! They canit even hold a B.-B. gun--much less a bow fbeau?J But they do. Instructions vary. Some nice maidens must shoot at the bleachers. and others at our dear cafeteria. Sometimes they' hit a cream pie or land in a chocolate pudding, cred- iting a home run. Over the bleachers or into the street is out completely. Just think, they even try to kill one another like raging Indians. Revenge is sweet so folks say. Do they use a target? Never heard of such a thing. These wild girls would rather shoot a workman than injure a lovely target. Do they like to shoot? Why they haven't got enough weapons to go around. These girls are viciousand- how! Pity the boys if they stick their noses around-- the girls' territory. They will probably go away with several cupid's weapons piercing their head. Take a tip boys practice up on your shooting so you won't be killed too many times. Bright Eye-deas A certain little Betty made goo-goo-eyes at a cer- tain little Claude--But a certain little Claude defin- itely declared himself a woman hater. Juanita Tegtmeyer doesn't believe that it is true in all cases-- at least she was seen directing her own em- erald orbs in the direction of Art Brycwczynski. Loretta Reese, rolling her big blue eyes coquettish- ly, stated that Sylvester Jazwiecki was so cute.

Student Voice N ORDER to improve Woodward extra-curricular activities, a set of rules limiting over-activity by students was made by a faculty committee.

Yes We're talking about Marquis, that fa- mous magician known all over the world for his mystifying acts. All you good little boys and girls, do not forget to mind your teachers and do your homework, and you might be lucky enough to receive one of Marquis, little bunnies that he pulls out of his hat. Band May Travel For the purpose of securing money to send the band to Fort Wayne with the football team October 10, this pro- gram, featuring Marquis, will be held Monday, October 5, third hour in the auditorium. So all you loyal Wood- wardites come and help your student members in the band make this trip. The program offers a variety of de- lightful comedy, bewildering illusionsg and you might even see an expose of fake spirit medium. Street urchins have arrived at Mar- quis' performances on roller skates as wealthy merchants arrived in their ex- pensive limousines. People in all walks of life have flocked to see his shows. The happiest people in the world are the people who believe in magic, declares Marquis. The boy who sits fishing along a lazy stream believes in magic when he sees a branch drifting along and dreams it is a ship bound for ports of adventure? In charge of the program is W. F. Rohr. The price of addmission will be 'ten cents. 1...- Perfect Shorthand Paper Puzzles Mrs. Leu Until After wading through a stack of im- perfect shorthand papers, Mrs. Eva Leu finally spied one lonely paper with no signature attached absolutely one hun- dred per cent.

Tomorrow they are expected to lose to Scott. No amount of editorial writing or mass meeting enthusiasm could con- vince the Woodward student that he had a fighting squadg handicapped by lack of experience, the gridders are therefore receiving a bruising at the hands of their usually larger and more experienced foes. ' These fellows, our classmates, have not given up the fight.

The Polar Bears' only scoring oppor- tunity came early in the first quarter. After receiving the kickoff, the Bears started a sustained drive from midfield to the four yard line where the Cowboys' line held and they took the ball on downs. Libbey, led by Pinneger and Smith, scored in every quarter. Pinnegar scored twice in the second quarter and once in the thirdg Smith scored in the first and last quarters and Gugger also scored in the final quarter. Zaremba, Greenwood, Stoykoff, Bar- bara, Parker, Wichowski, and Nareski, on the line and Pelczarski, Golembiew- ski, Stack, and Banasiak in the backfield was the Bears' starting lineup. Substi- tutes who saw action were Shulf, Bishop, Klocko, Kaczmarczek, Lumley, Balish, Turrettin, Nowak, Bialorucki, Hodge, Hoskins, Davis, Boykin and Szela- gowski. Football Comments The Welcome Woodward sign at the East end of the Libbey stadium was a fine gesture on the part of the Libbey officials--Several members of last year's football team watched the game from the stands---Woodward rooters certain- ly did not do their part--When Libbey's cheers came booming across the field, ours soundedlike an echo-Woodward's band is larger than Libbey's---the boy carrying the Woodward fiag was not present when the band marched on the field---he arrived just as the band was being seated--Woodward colors dec- orated the goal posts--the band ,made a fine showing when they marched off the field after all the spectators had .gone--Well, see you at the Scott game. Bears Scrimmage Woodward's Polar Bears whetted their appetites for wins when they top- ped the Whitmer team in a scrimmage last Tuesday at the Whitmer field. The Bears crossed the goal line five times while the Whitmer team failed to score. P Oolor Day Is Oct. 2 Color Day, the annual presentation of the Senior Friendship club, will be held Friday, October 2, the day before the Scott-Woodward football game. BEARHF gr-. ' 1 ff!- While making a plunge by Ed Pel- czarski possible, Bob Stack, Woodward signal caller, received several cracked ribs. This injury weakened the Bears offensively and defensively as after this mishap Woodward could not start a scoring drive nor could they halt the cowboys off tackle and end sweep plays. His injury will keep him on the side- lines indefinitely. Tough luck Bob. 0 o a A reoccurence of a knee injury, which kept Al Greenwood out of uniform part of last year, put Al out of three quar- ters of the Libbey tilt. Al should be in the Scott game though. o o 0 Johnny Golembiewski was captain for the first game of the year.

Clark The Woodward lightweights will in- augurate their 1936 season this after- noon at 3:30, when they meet the Waite papooses. About 30 boys have been assigned equipment but have not had an oppor- tunity to do much scrimmaging as yet but a scrimmage with the reserves was expected this week before the Waite game. Coach L. C. Clark believes that if a hard blocking team developes and a good field general is found, the team will have a fair season. Boys who will probably see action are Ernest Widlund, Clifton Manore, back- field, Mike Kaczlowski, Edward Krell, Charles McFarland, William Hughes, Joseph Brocki, Stanley Niedbalski and Bob Verraum, freshman linemen. William Raczko, Billy Rauski, Ernest Bankey, Ziggie Kaminski, Manual Zil- les, Arthur Pierron, Sophomore back- fieldmeng and Charles Lyman, Paul Mc- Kinney, Roger Staebler, Ed Hunter, Robert Dick, Dan Nowak, Edward Bo- jarski, and Karl Yakumathis, sophomore linemen. Last year on their owr field, Wood- ward downed Waite 14-7. As the game is free, it is hoped a large crowd will turn out to cheer the boys. Cheerleaders Are Chosen By Applause Of Students Billy Dug, Jimmie Parker, Lawerance Maciejewski, and Bernard Hunterbrink- er are the new cheerleaders for this year. Lawrence Maciejewski, one of last years cheerleaders, was appointed by Miss Curtis. The others are the ones who received the most applause last Fri- day at the mass meeting. Girls'W' Club Plans Joining Girls' Athletic Association Plans for a girls' Athletic Association were discussed at a recent cabinet meeting of the girls' W club. Anyone interested may join. The HW club will then become a chapter of the associa- tion. A meeting will be held October 6, when plans will be presented to the members.

SCOTT HIG LIBBEY oigirpunfri-:D BY GOLEMBIEWSKI Averaging 37 yards with every kick John Golembiewski, Woodward's triple threat halfbacifg-outpunted his cowboy foe Ernie Pinninger, who averaged 23 yards. This was the only department of the game in which the Polar Bears ex- celled. The Libbey backfield outrushed the Bears 278 yards to 64, averaging sev- en yards in each try at the Woodward line, while Art Srnith's proteges aver- aged a little over one and one-half yards through the Cowboy's forward Wall. The Polar Bears completed but two of seven passes for a net gain of 50 yards while coach Chip Hauser's lads were complet' ing five out of six for a total of 92 yards' This successful passing attack raised the Libbey yardage to 370 which was good for eighteen first downs while Golem- biewski, Ban' siak and company were able to net but four. Although the Polar Bears were sadly outdistanced in all phases of the game, they may be commended on their fight- ing spirit which they displayed through- out the game.

Mr Hatcher was to send them by special Smith Holds Intensive Drill In Preparation For Night Fray After a stinging defeat at the hands or the Libbey Cowboys, Woodward's Polar Bears of the gridiron will be out to give a good account of themselves against Scott. The two teams will come together under the lights on the Ma- roons' field at eight o'clock tomorrow night. Coach Art Smith decided to give the Bears a week of intensive training and drill on defense because of the inability to stop Libbey. Offensive work was not neglected and the first string took the ball against the second team. Woodward's lineup will be much the same as that of the Libbey tilt with the line formed of Harry Zaremba and Leo- nard Nareski at ends. Joe Wichowski and Chet Kacmierczak at the tackle positions, Ray Stoykoff and Harry Par- ker covering the guard territories, and Joe Barbara snapping the ball from center. The backfield will be composed of John Golembiewski and Ed Pelczarski at halfs, Barney Banasiak at full and Ed Bialorucki calling the signals in place of Bob Stack, who was injured in the Lib- bey fray.

The Woodward-Scott game is the only high school tilt Saturday night. In the DeVilbiss-Columbus game the invaders from the capitol should get revenge for the defeat handed them by the Tigers last fall. Waite is the choice to top the Mas- sachusetts gridders in their tussle. Pea- body has the Mooseheart style of play and should give Waite a busy evening. Libbey is picked to add another intra- city win at the expense of the Central high school's defending champion. h Scott reigns as favorites in their tilt with the Bears, but as Woodward is determined to redeem themselves for their defeatlast week they m ay surprize tha Rnntt Rullrlnas.

But above all, he is courteous, said the new Student Council president, Elvina Smorowski, when interviewed. Wonder if she has any particular per- son in mind. This pretty, intelligent miss confided that her favorite dislike is seeing Woodwardites going down the halls holding hands.

Miss Grace Cronk's Biology Classes Pickle Angleworms Two worms apiece, please, Miss Grace Cronk informed her first year biology classes one day. Although com- pletely puzzled the obedient students did as they were told. Lab day, Tuesday, September 15, found these ambitious scientists killing those helpless little worms. Rows on rows of bottles, you girls know the process, stood in a sparkling line in front of room 312. Presiding over these was Miss Cronk, busily employed putting angleworms into those carefully washed jars. Over the hapless worms is poured the pickling liquid, alcohol. Corked up tight- ly, the jars were put into a dark closet until January. Six Woodward Students Go Astray Returning To School S. O. S.l S. O S.! Six Woodward boys lost! Returning from the Art Museum last Friday, half a dozen students decid- ed to walk to school. The boys, William Anspach, Verne Kramer, Ferris Skaff, Esa Corey, Edward Corey, and Albert Erndt, strolled on and on until they realized that their destina- tion was no where to be found. No, the school didn't disappear but six Wood- wardites had forgotten their road maps and didn't know what route would get them there. Finally, someone had the bright idea to send a message to Miss Adrienne Curtis, instructor in charge of trip. After receiving the distress signal, Miss Curtis made arrangements for the rescue. Students Given Informal Introduction To 'Gussie' In Miss Grace Cronk's fourth hour biology class, the pupils were given an informal introduction to Gussie, Miss Cronkls pet alligator. To observe the action of Gussie's mouth parts, he was fed pieces of meat which he swalled with surprising zest. The alligator is there for observation purposes.

Pedagogues Play At Picnic, Many Masquerade Merrily 'Tis not often that our dear teachers forget their dignity and become kids again, but when they do, there's always a jolly frolic. That's what happened last Thursday night when they came together for a good old fashioned picnic with juicy T-bone steak and corn fresh from M. T. Skinner's garden. Potato salad-oceans of it---was al- so on the menu and was prepared by Miss Blanche Hazelton's home econom- ics classes. The 'iVans brought their children tVan Gorders and Van Tasselsj, and Mrs. Ersig collected bones for her 16 dogs.

Centuries ago, in the early l930's, there were no bikes in the court, no bikes anywhere around the building, in fact, no one rode that famous two. wheeled vehicle to school. Then came the revolution! Two un- sung heroes of the past, Charles Klink- sick and Elmer Shortt, donned red fiannels and gas masks and plowed through snow, rain, sunshine, and hail on a ride which was to go down in history as epoch making. As courage gained with practice, Frederick Holt- freter jointed the ranks, and the trio became known as the The Three Musketeers. They continued through hard and trying times slowly but steadily gaining followers, until today the number has reached a peak of over ninety. - Frosh Forgers Foiled In preparation for student forgers, S. B. Crouse, freshman boy adviser, has issued cards to be signed by both stu- dents and parents. When uncertain ex- cuses come in, he compares signatures.

French Students Hear Of Famous French Masters Students in Miss Adrienne Curtis' ad- vanced French classes viewed some of the paintings of the famous Barbizon painters, last Friday at the Toledo Mu- seum of Art. An interesting review of the painters, lives was given by Miss Eula Lee An- derson, lecturer at the museum. The little group of artists were in search of a village and finally settled in Barbizon near Fountainebleau. Each in his own way painted the simple country life Millet,who was the leader, is well known for his famous paintings, The Angelus, 'The Quarriersf' and The Gleanersf' which depict the peasents at work. Jacques painted the restful side of peasent life, Rousseau loved the trees and taught Diaz to paint them, Carat canvassed the outdoors on misty mornings or evenings and Daubigny lived in a housebout and painted the rivers.

Sing, Baby Sing N ENTIRELY new form of assembly patterned after the popular radio feature, Community Sing, was inaugurated at the pep meeting preceding the Scott game and proved to be highly successful Formerly had pupils sat like bumps on a log but when all students took an active part in the pro- gram, it had more pep than a dozen of the others. The program was so catchy that many dignified members of the faculty were caught warbling. Norma Jean Allen and Violet Sheckler should be commended for their part in leading the singing at this novel meeting and also.Miss Adrienne Curtis and A. Bitter for supplying the slides to flash the words of the songs on the screen. ..li. Dangerous Darkness ITCH darkness twice enveloped the speeding skaters at the Municipal club skate. A serious accident might have resulted from this unwar- ranted and utterly foolish act. The management of Memorial Hall announced that this might jeopardize the chances of any Wood- Hvatrd organization to obtain the floor at a future a e. We hope this act was not done by Woodward students, but even so we are responsible for those attending school affairs. -T1 Utilize The Library N THE second floor, adjacent to the cafeteria is a door numbered 212. One wonders how many students realize what's behind that door. Do pupils use the vast store of knowledge contain- ed in those shelves? Do we supplement our courses of study with outside readings? In short, do we use our library? .111.T.1.g A Step Together WAYING dancers' bodies at the Shekel Shuflie to- night will symbolize more than a number of peo- ple keeping the same rhythm. For by cooperating in sponsoring the first evening dance of the term, Woodward clubs are in harmony. And as it has been said, 'fUnited we stand, divided we fall, it is expected that Woodward organizations will stand to higher achievements. Failure financially or a success, as the affair will most likely be, it is a step in the right direction, a unified club system. It's Up To Council HE STUDENT council efiiciently patrols the halls and adequately guards the auditorium doors during assemblies. In the cafeteria a different situation presents it- self. Papers are strewn about, chairs upset, and general disorder reigns. Can the student council attend to this much needed improvement? No wonder every place you wander you stumble over a teacher. Who wouldn't when there are 68 teaching here and there. Some of these instructing, some seri- ously reprimanding we Woodwardites, still others get a big kick out of telling dry jokes fand getting provoked at us because we don't laughl.

A total of 1767 kids in this school have names, first names, last names, middle names and even more names. The freshmen take the prize for most of the popular names with 23 of the 63 Virginias, 15 of the 42 Dorothys, and 12 of the 22 Bettys. Among the boys, Roberts and Williams lead. The freshmen again winning with half of the 53 Roberts, 15 of 38 Williams,and 19 from 28 Johns. Although Virginia is the name most found in each class of girls, the boys prefer variety. Freshmen and seniors like Robertsg sophs, Williamsg and juniors, Johns. Considering that each student has two names makes a total of 3534 names, with three names, 5301. Many? Not at all. Now take the poor teachers for instance, they use possibly 102 names each day calling on their brilliant students, making a sum of 600 names a week! With 60 teachers, 6120 names are used in the classroom daily! 30,600 weekly. Inot including those names used in the office, auditorium, or between classesj During the whole school year, an average of 1,162,800 names are mentioned in the classes.

I like the new Tattler type since it is more like a city paperf' Herbert Palm, freshman. The new print in the Tattler must not be very much smaller because I didn't even notice it.

It shows tha the Tat- tler is improvingf' Miriam Rathbun, sophomore. I guess it is alright, but since it is smaller it is harder for the printshop to set up. Ed Nowak, junior. I think it is a lot better because you can get more news in it? Leo Laston, senior. This smaller type is all right because we get more news.

Finish POLAR BEAR FOOT BALLERSR TRAVEL TO FORT WAYNE FOR ANNUAL GAME Blue And White Will Try For First Win Of Season In Third Clash Of Series, Woodward Band To Go With Squad In their annual clash with Fort Wayne, the Woodward Polar Bears will be trying for their first gridiron victory of the season. The game will be played at the Fort Wayne stadium in Indiana, game called at 3.00 p. m. This is the third successive game between the two schools, and as yet Fort Wayne has not crossed the Woodward goal line. The gridders will be striving for their first win over Woodward, assi' the Bears came out on the long end of a 20 to 0 ,score in 1934, and the two teams battled to a scoreless tie in 1935. Although the Bears will not have a cheering section there, the Woodward band will be there to urge them on to victory. The Engineering society i-s responsible for the sending of the band to Fort Wayne. The Polar Bear squad has been weak- ened considerably by injuries, but they will take with them a fighting spirit, and after the game win, lose or tie, those Fort Wayne boys will know they have been in a ball game. Fort Wayne's starting line-up was not obtainable. I Starting for Woodward will probably be Zaremba, left end, Francis, left tackle, Stoykoff, left guard, Barbara, center, Parker, right guardg Wichowski, right tackle, aud Nowak, right end. In the backfield will be Bialorucki, quarterback, Pelczarski, left half, Go- lembiewski, right half2 and Banasiak fullback.

POLAR BEAR CUBS PLAY PERRYSBURG Woodward Reserves Show Power Against Big Opponents The Woodward lightweights played their first game Wednesday against the Perrysburg varsity. This team re- cently played a practice game with Lib- bey and held them to a scoreless tie. Perrysburg scored early in the first quarter and then pulled part of their string but the reserves lacked the pow- er of the first team. Woodward showed surprising strength on the offense, keep- ing possession of the ball the greater part of the first half. At the beginning of the third quarter the first string of Perrysburg was sent in again and dis- played their strength by scoring two touchdowns but were weak on defensive. Woodward's only score came in the final quarter on a short pass into the end zone. The lightweights were continually opening large holes in the heavy Perrys- burg line and showing some fine block- ing and running. The coaches, L.C. Clark and L.J. Robie, stated that they were satisfied with the playing, and after a few things were straightened out they would be ready for their city opponents. The boys who were in the practice game are: Mike Kazlowski, Chas. Mc- Farland, William Hughes, Kream Hadd- ad, Joseph Brocki, Edward Krell, Clifton Manore, Stanley Niedbalski, William Scott, Chas. Lyman, William Raczko, Paul McKinney, Billy Rowski, Ernest Bankey, Roger Staebler, Ed Hauter, Bob Dick, Dan Nowak, Arthur Pieron, Karl Yakumithis, Manual Zellas, Edward Bojarski, and Joseph Pilatowski. Woodward meets Central tonight in their first city game at 3:30 on the lat- ter's field. The Waite game was postponed in- definitely.

For I feel that a game is never won until it is in the bagf' stated assistant football coach Homer Hanham when asked how many games the team would win this year. We are liable to win two games, Fort Wayne and Van Wert, but the others are a toss up. Coach Hanham remarked that the Libbey and Scott games were the first for most of the boys on the squad, and, consequently, they are expected to make a much better showing the latter part of the season. Because th : line will lose only ore man this year, Joe Barbara, the team should go places next year. We were depending a lot on Bob Stack next Saturday, but we will have to do without him for the rest of the year, predicted the amiable coach.

Dave McMurray Coaches Smith, Hanham, and I were well pleased with the spirit that the student body displayed at the Scott game, remarked Coach Dave McMurray meditatively. They stayed in the stands cheering to the finish, and some even came over to the bus and lifted the moral of the boys through consoling us on the defeat. , The congeniel coach stated that the much lighter and inexperienced Polar Bear eleven, with only four veterans in the lineup, was unable to cope with the heavier teams because the Bears had only scrimmaged among themselves while the Cowboys and Maroons had had three or four outside games under their belts.

The first touchdown came when Scott took the ball on the kick-off and marched down the field in a series of plunges and end runs, scoring when Idus Brown took the ball around end. Inexperience and lack of reserve power again proved to be the big factor in Woodward's defeat. The Polar Bears, outplayed at every turn of the game, never made any serious threats to score. Scott scored heavily in the first three quarters, tallying twice in the first quarter, four times in the second, and three in the third. Idus Brown and Norton Goldstein stood out for Scott, while Joe Kemp made good six tries for extra points from placement. Twenty-eight passes were thrown. Scott completing 12 and intercepting four, three of which were turned into counters, while Woodward completed but two. Scott made ten first downs to Woodward's seven. The starting lineup for Woodward was Pelczarski, Szelagowski, Banasiak, and Bialorucki in the backfield with Zaremba, Francis, Stoykoff, Barbara, Parker, Wichowski, and Nowak on the me. - Bob Stack, Bear Grid Star, Thrown For Loss By Illness When it rains it pours! At least that's the way it happens with Bob Stack, sig- nal caller for the grid squad. The rain fell when Bob was the victim of a kick in the side during the Libbey game and was out for one week. He was ready to don a suit on Monday when it began to pour, Bob had an attack of acute ap- pendicitis. Stack was taken to St. Vincint's hos- pital and underwent an opperation at 8 p. m. He pulled through the operation under the care of Doctor Neal and is now doing well. Bob will be unable to participate in football this season. On behalf of the student body, the Tattler staff wishes Bob a speedy re- covery.

After having been fed, it was placed in a cardboard box. Being very curious , he finally succeeded in finding an avenue of escape through an opening. Thus making the score one to zero in the cat's favor. Mrs. O'Brien tried again. She order- ed him put into the aquarium.

Two to one still in the catis favor. ' Not to be outwitted, Mrs. O'Brien again has the little visitor placed in the aquarium. This time taking the precau- tion of blocking all exits. The kitten, recognizing his defeat, gently laid down and dovzed. Big-hearted Robert Walterscheid took the little guest home after it awoke. Robert is too shy to admit this kindness though.

Radio Students Begin Transmitter Construction Being interested in radio transmis- sion, the C.C.C. students of A.R. Bitter, many of whom are former Woodward students, began to build a transmitter yesterday with equipment supplied by the Board of Education. When it is completed, a government license will be applied for and broad- casts will be aired over short wave at night. Mass Meeting Committee Elected, Sweaters Chosen The new members of the Quill and Dagger society came through the in- formal initiation in the boys' gym with strong hearts but weaker stomachs. The rest of the day the boys were forced to wear the club's initials on their fore- heads. The formal initiation willbe held on a later date. Following a discussion, the boys de- cided to purchase grey sweaters with red monograms. Charles Hoskins and John Golembiewski were chosen to se- lect them. X The members elected three new offi- cers: Jack West, chaplain, Julian Jor- dan, reporter, and John Golembiewski, sergeant at arms. Eugene Haddad was ointed chairman of the committee FACULTY DIVIDED IN NATIONAL POLL Roosevelt, Landon Secure Most Votes, Some Befuddled As every one knows the political cam- paign is reaching its highest intensity as the election date draws near. W. F. Rohr, in evidence of his political inclinations, sports a Landon sunflower on his coat lapel. R. K. Sheline, being more discreet, wears his Republican insignia bear in on the buttonhole of his coat. Being still more discreet and reticent, Floyd Lords evidences his political leanings by a G. O. P. sticker on the rear window of his car. Holding out against the above men- tioned, is Frank Duvendack who, it was learned from a reliable source, is a proponentF.D.R. LWhat other Wood- ward pedagogues may think, only a sec- ret poll could determine.J Howard Phipps, is still strong for Marcus Tull- ius Cicero. Mrs. Hazel McManamon holds out for Landon while certain pitiless peo- ple have been turning Miss A. G. Wetterman around and around till she knows not whom to vote for. Dramatic Class Deliberates Features Of Stage Setting Studying extensively the subject of stage setting, is the project of Miss Dorothy Kellogg's first hour dramatic class with each student assigned one detail. Notebooks which may be refer- red to in the future are to be made il- lustrating and explaining the work. The different subjects will be: fireplaces, 'floor coverings, windows, and 'furniture in all types of buildings.

It wasn't her fault that a chimney fell causing the postponement of a tour of inspection through a prominent Toledo building. She took it upon herself to pay the car fares of every club member present. The students must re- alize that this is only one instance which made ev- ident the big-heartedness of this club adviser. Without little unselfish acts such as this, what kind of a world would this be? Buy A Saga HE 1937 Saga will contain many new innova- tions which should make it the most desirable in many, years. With individual photographs of everyone, this Saga will certainly appeal strongly to upper and underclassmen alike. Everyone likes to carry away some memento from an enjoyable place. What better form of remem- brance of the good old days can be had than the Saga? V The Road To Success OW that seniors have selected oflicers for the coming term, the executives have the task of appointing committees for affairs ofthe class. These bodies are one of the most important phases of school life as they are responsible for the success of the activities of a class. With the experience of seniors, the cabinet knows well enough how important is the selection of the right people. As the class of 1937 is small and is accused of being a poor group due to the lack of many out- standing members, it is expected that they will say, poor class, poor activities. This should stir indignation in the heart of every fourth year student. If the committees which are chosen get their ideas r-learly in mind early and work towards the completion of these plans, the class can experience only success. Taking Ways TUDENTS! Of late there has been an annoying loss of equipment from bicycles in the court. This petty thievery has been going on for some time, and evidently is increasing. Honest, upstand- ing students should not consider themselves 'itattle ta es if they report the culprits. On the contrary, if a student allows stealing to go on unheeded, he is not only lowering his own standard, but is impli- cated in the crime. TL 1 , 1, , 1 A 1 1 1 ' I 1 - 1 ' -1 1 PRINCIPAL POINTS On October twenty-eighth this year the Statue of Liberty will be fifty years old. It was presented as a memorial by the citi- ai 5 1 A zens of France to attest the everlasting friendship of the two nations. It was to have been completed in 1876 on the one gtg- hundredth anniversary of the founding of our nation, but its erection was delayed or ten years. With a huge torch in her outstretched hand this magniiicent statue has for the past half century sped the departing American and European tourist, and Wel- comed millions of aliens to our shores. To these latter she has been the heroic symbol of that promised land, America. On the fiftieth aniversary of her dedication the pres- ent ambassador from F rance, Andre de Laboulage, will take a prominent part in the ceremonies. He is a grand- son of Edouard de Laboulage who suggested that the French people join with the Americans in some kind of memorial to the one hundred years of American inde- pendence. Through his influence money was raised and Auguste Bartholdi was commissioned to erect the statue. All over America and in several foreign countries clubs and societies are devoting programs ta the Statue of Liberty and its anniversary. Special study of its his- tory and meaning is being made by school children all over the United States in the hope that the fine spirit that prompted the gift may be better appreciated as the years go on.

Thou shalt not submit thy unlawful gum to the lowly basket of waste, but gently bury it on your seat for the enjoyment of the next unfortunate. 3. Thou shalt not slyly peek upon the paper of thy brethren in an hour of need, for he may be dumber than you. Be thou prepared and take thy pedogogue's sheet of answers in the dead of night. 4.

Curious Facts Long ago, chemists believed that there was a sub- stance that weighed less than nothing. When they heated metal, they believed that this substance escaped, making the metal heavier. We know now that the oxygen added is the cause of the increase in weight of the metal, but the oldtimers were fooled by this for about a half century. There is a certain star in the heavens that looks very dim to the naked eye, but it actually is brighter than our sun. So far away is this star that if you traveled at speed of light, 186,000 miles a second, it would take you 47 million years to reach it. Thus, the light that reaches the earth from that star started traveling 47 million years ago.

The game was played in a sea ofmud giving the ball and the players the qualities of greased pigs. In the initial quarter, a twenty-five yard pass brought the first tally to the Hoosiers after a poor kick by the Bears from deep in their own territory. A kick from placement was no good. The sec- ond tally came on a buck from the seven yard line. Again the attempt to kick the extra point failed. Woodward threatened in the closing minutes of the second quarter with passes, but failed to score. In the third period, the Bears worked their way to the Fort Wayne territory and the fourth stanza found them in possession of the ball inside the twen- ty, but an interception killed the Wood- ward drive on the Hoosiers goal and paved the way for another touchdown for Fort Wayne. An Indiana back took the ball around his own left end and lugged it 80 yards to score. . Joe Barbara played a good game at center and Tony Anello played for the first time, having been kept out before because of a bad knee. French Joueurs Enter Team In Intra-Mural League Race A new team, the French J oueurs fAthleticsJ, is entered in the National League race in the intra-murals. Several rules were discussed at the intra-mural managers' meeting held third hour last Tuesday in the boys' gym. They were: the center of the ball through the legs and the lateral pass, dead when fumbled. Last week there were two forfeits games in the American League and three in the National League. The intra-mural managers will acquire a new club room when the gym is com- pleted and they be will pemitted to play table tennis, badminton, and other in- door games.

Dope Corner Only two games are scheduled for this weekend, Scott and Libbey tangling at the Southend school tonight and Woodward and Waite. clashing tomor- row under the lights. On the basis of comparative scoring the Scott Bulldogs should top Libbey by twenty points. Scott appears to be on the way to a city championship with Waite the only team left on their sched- ule with more than an outside chance of beating them. Waite is expected to take Woodward by a topheavy score,but the Bears may upset the Indians if they become too over-confident. At least the Polar Bears will show that they have plenty of scrap. TAUGHT IN GYM Twenty-Two Triple A Girls Study Graceful Art Of Dancing Miss Stella Cornwell took a course in modern dancing in Bennington, Vermont last summer and is now enrolled in a modern dancing class at Wayne Uni- versity in Detroit, Michigan. She is tactfully displaying her knowledge gained from these courses to Woodward students enrolled in her class. After a dance has been learned, music is to be composed to fit the dance. So far four seniors, five juniors, and twelve sophomores have enrolled. They are as follows: seniors: Virginia Rayman, Helen Mical, Violet Sheckler, and Norma Jean Allen. Juniors: Theresa Plicinski, Lois Hall, Catherine Langlars, Dora Jackman, and Mildred DePew. Sophomores: Mary Jane Szymorowski, Celestine Smorowski, Winola Cotton, Eleanor Szymkowski, Lucille Soltysiak, Bernice Landwehr, Charlotte Hulzsch, Phyllis Zarn, Marian Smith, Rosemary Mancers, Clara McVicker, Dorothy Rzecyowski. Anyone wishing to join this class must have a three A gym ability grade. Enrollment will be taken in the girls' gym. Ten Teams Are Organized In Girls' Intra-Mural Loop Ten teams have been organized in the girls intra-mural games which began this week. The names, captains, and managers of the teams follow respectively: Wood- ward Wildcats, Dorothy Krieger and Francis Urbanowicz: Freshmen Cubs, Betty Stalder and Betty Jane Roth: Flying W's, Dorothy Kohne and Doris Beebe: Red Hot Speedsters, Kathryn Braunschweiger and Celestine Smor- owski: Polar Bears, Virginia Rayman and Jane Fink: Jinxs, Leocadia Golem- biewski and Jeanette Livine: and Wood- ward Sure Shots, Helen Szymorowski and Marjorie McClain. The Latin Club has not yet chosen a captain, but Jennie Payak is the man- ager. The Yankees have Elizabeth Micheal as manager, while Jeanette Damraur will act as manager of the French club. Miss Catherine McClure and Miss Stella Cornwell, gym instructors, will supervise intra-murals. Students Slow -- It took Woodward students 3:02 min- utes to leave the building last Thursday during the fire drill. This is a longer time than any other school required. The fact that only one set of doors were opened in some cases slowed up the exodus considerably. The students are to be commended on their conduct. L. T. G. Chairmen Chosen Business of the Little Theatre Guild during the coming year will be handled by, the following committee chairmen who have just been chosen: business manager, Laura Ellen Derr: costumiere, Eleanor Meyer: property manager, Lu- cille Grubinski: make-up manager, Elsie Shemas: program chairman, Norma Jean Allen: publicity, Lillian Barabasz: and social affairs, William Bloomer. .l.Kl.l.J IN TILT AGAINST WAITE TOMORROW - -if Lightweights Lose Two Grid Battles Scoring in the first and fourth quar' ters, the Central lightweights downed the Woodward Cubs 12--0 last Monday morning. L.C. Clark gave lack of experi- ence as the chief factor for the loss, therefore the team will scrimmage two or three times a week. Fullback Rawski's punting stood out in the Woodward offensive although their defensive play was by far the most affective. Plunging was responsible for most ofthe yardage gained until the ball was placed in scoring distance when they capitalized in fumbles and bad passes due to over anxiety because of their first city game. The starting line-up was as follows: Staebler, left end: Hater, left tackle: Kazlowski, left guard: Lyman, center: Brocki, right guard: Bojarski, right tackle: Nowak, right end: Raczko, quart- erback: Zelles, left half back: Manore, right half back: Rawski, fullback Banky, Pieron, Widlund, Rybka, Wery, Hughes, and Pilatowski were gridders who substituted for the blue and white in the fray. Tuesday evening the Cubs journeyed to Whitmer in taxis to scrimmage the suburban eleven. Coach Clark used two teams which played for over an hour of hard football. The Whitmer Gridders scored 21 points while they held Coach Clark's proteges scoreless. Athletic League Takes In W Girls: Auxiliary Club Begun The Athletic league held its first meet' ing last Tuesday in the girls' gym. It was decided at this meeting that the pre- vious W girls would be members of the Athletic League and girls working for letters on intramural teams would be members of the WH club, which will be made a chapter of the Athletic League and counted as one club. A new constitution will be written by Jane Fink, committee chairman assisted by Virginia Rayman and Wilma Cole. 5 Shop Notes The wood shop classes, under the di- rection ofS. B. Crouse, are constructing boxes to hold attendence cards for deans, a large table for Longfellow School, screenes for the nurse, and two tables for Riverside School. I O U After spending a whole week fixing lockers in the boys' gym to give more storage pace in the varsity dressing room, Paul Thomae's machine shop class fashioned 12 hand-made eye-bolts to hang volley-ball nets in the girls' gym Peri's Plan Dance The first afternoon dance of the year will be held Thursday, Oct. 29, from 3to 5 o'clock. The Periclean Literary society will sponsor the affair. Miss Louise Tippett is adviser of the Perfcleans. Team Rides, Eats, Between 9 and 10 o ' clock Saturday morning,Woodward's gridders boarded a bus headed for Indiana. The boys were in good spirits and with the aid of several song sheets they rendered the popular songs ofthe day. After what seemed like an eternity of riding the team, coaches, and managers got out to stretch their limbs and eat. All felt they could do justice to food, and they consumed 40 odd pints of milk and 90 roast beef sanwdiches. Immediately afterwards they started on towards Fort Wayne. During the lap of the journey Harry Zaremba Plays, And Sleeps brought a guitar into play. Ed Pelczar ski showed his skill with the harmonica while Joe Barbara and Al Greenwood annoyed with kazoos. On arriving, a short walk was taken by some before dressing for the game. After the game and showers, arestau- ant received the attention of all. When they entered, tables were set for them and they sat down. Immediate- ly the bread was devoured. Even the coaches began to eat it. After the meal, the team embarked for Toledo, a tired bunch of fellows in an over-crowded bus. . Game To Be First Intra-City Struggle For Indian Footballers In their third intra-city grid game, the Woodward Polar Bears encounter the l1Vaite Indians. The game, formerly scheduled for Friday, will be played Saturday at 8:15 in the Waite stadium. This will be the first city game for Waite which thus far has shown power against out-of-town teams with good reputations. Although Woodward has an inexperi- enced, injury racked team, the boys have that never dying Woodward spirit. In '34, the Polar Bears lost to the Indians 20-7: last year the team was on the lower end of' a 34-0 score. During the 1930 season, Waite was stopped by, a Woodward aerial attack, 12-0. Thus far this is the Bears only victory overWaitei Woodward Tech and Waite battled to a tie in '27. The probable starting line-ups are: Woodward Pos. Waite Ford L. E. Hecklinger Greenwood L. T.

Six serious Council members settled down in their chairs and waited the first culprit. Under a barrage of questions, this offender of a school rule changed his smiling countenance to a more serious one, humbly pleaded guilty and promis- ed to be a better Woodward citizen. Swiftly more law breakers were brought before the court to state their cases. Some frankly admitted their guilt while others hedged about the truth till some well-put question hit the nail on the head. When both sides of the cases were thouroughly discussed, the various penalties were administered fairly and squarely. Only when the last case was com- pleted did the members of the jury relax their stern faces and become high school students again.

Emma Berdue No, I don't think a girl has an ad- vantage over aboy president, confessed Emma Berdue, first girl ever to hold the junior class presidency, but a boy has no advantage over a girl either! she added emphatically. Smiling, light-hearted, quick-witted, yet intelligent and earnest, Emma is the type of girl who can be expected to safely pilot the junior class through its third year at Woodward. She laughingly remarked that the juniors need not fear any radical changes in the interior decorations of the audi- torium even though she prefers blue to the present maroon curtains. This blue-eyed, blonde-haired little lady can cook but with no guarantee attached to the finished product. Her favorite sport is baketball and--scoop!--- her favorite hobby is eating!! Membership Drive Adds Twelve Members To Glub As a result of the call for members on October 15, the Red Cross society has added twelve students to its mem- bership to make a total of approximate- ly thirty members.

The society is planning a membership drive for the latter part of October. This will not be a drive for active members of the club. Pupils will be asked for a donation of two cents or more. Part of this money is to be used for registration and the remainder will be kept in the society to carry out their work.

Our True Colors VIDENCE of poor conduct was shown in the Woodward section at recent football games when lighted cigarettes and empty bottles were thrown toward the band. Although it was not defi- nitely known that Woodward students were guilty of these offences, they should be corrected. The frequent blowing of whistles with the same sound as the drum majors was confusing to the marching band last-Saturday night at the Waite game. General opinion tends toward criticism of the band for leaving before the game was over, it is their place to stick it out until the end. With everyone's help we are certain that these examples of thoughtlessness will decrease. Support School Levy EXT WEEK is Ohio Education Week. This an- nual event which precedes the November elec- tion is held for the purpose of bringing to the public notice the problems, issues, and advantages of the public school system in Ohio. This 'year on December 31 a deficit of 36,500,000 will exist bringing with it the probability of closed schools. The proposition to amend and ban the sales tax on food will be placed before parents of Wood- ward students on election day, and without doubt it will be passed leaving the schools without a source of financial support. We in .Woodward, as students seeking education at bargain prices, can persuade every parent to vote for the one mill levy to supplant the sales tax re- moval. National Education Week, by reminding voters of of the importance of public schools, tend's to bring votes toward levies and bond issues for support of educational facilities. New Suits, New Hope HROUGH the efforts of Miss Marian Mc- Donough and Henry Page, Woodward's cheer leaders and drum major will have the much- needed new uniforms. In behalf of the school, we extend a rousing cheer and a vote of thanks to Mr. Page for his grand donation. Each city high school drum major received an outfit in his school colors. Miss McDonough and the Municipal club are to be thanked for the cheerleaders, suits which will serve, we hope, to rouse enthusiasm and coopera- tion in the cheering section. Get Those Books HOSE students without textbooks are to be praised for their efforts in getting their lessons. Many make use of the library, loaded with books for everybodys' use. But there are those who go on day after day without making any attempt to study their homework, thinking that no books is a passable excuse. The school offers various methods of securing books. Second hand books are sometimes available. VVhere there's a will there's Dizzy Half-Dozen Note--This is the first of a series of suggested reforms in Woodward. Pupils have voted to install the following rules and we are only to glad too oblige. 1. Tardy excuses will be placed in the halls for the use of 8:29 pupils. 2. A special speaker, either Robert Taylor, Clark Gable, or Claudette Colbert will be featured at every mass meeting or class get-to-gether. 3. Only teachers will be marked absent. If any teacher is found in class without a building permit she will be penalized by having to do all assignments herself. 4. Any student who can prove he has been in the hall for over ffiteen minutes will have his name honorably engraved on the ceiling of the auditorium. 5. A contest will be held, offering a prize of a ge- ometry book with all themanswers in it to the Wood- wardite who draws the funniest pictures of teachers in study halls. , 6. Samples of full size will be given in the cafeteria so that pupils will never buy anything they don't like. KNOCK! KN OCK! Knock! Knock! there? Who's Ransome. me who?

Excuse It, Please Oh, teacher dear, I had a cold in my head, this is the favorite excuse for the absences of Woodward's sweet little kiddies, at least so the class deans tell us. Of course, taking care of little sister, and visiting that doctor man are also utilized, especially by fresh- man girls, Miss Wetterman informs. Weak stom- achs! and funerals??? are the old standbys of the junior and senior lads. Can't you think up any new ones, boys? After colds, come toothaches, headaches, and Jew- ish holidays as the reasons for white slips given to the junior and senior lassies. The water was too cold to shave has remained the most outstanding excuse ever received by Mr. Meek from the soph boys. This year's class competes with that oft' heard plea a cold and other illnesses. -1-11.111 ALL IN' A DAY Nathan Davis is quips in history class.---Mrs. Kathryn Schuler rapidly striding down the hall, stopping, stoop- ing and picking up a rubber band.-George Finkler for- getting where he put his chemistry locker key, and forced to spend half his lunch hour rememberng.-- Mildred Depew knocking 'ern out in her gym shorts on the second floor seventh hour, Tuesday.---Edward Corey brightening up history with his accounts of How History Should Have Been. ---Ray Stoykoff and Mildred Raymer exchanging coos outside Millie's locker.--- Lucille G. blushing prettily when she receives notes from???

Book Review ' Man, the Unknown , one of the books presented to the Woodward library by the Zetalethean Literary society, is written by Alexis Carrel, who for his suc- cess in suturing blood vessels and transplanting or- gans, won the Nobel prize in 1912. In this book a broad-minded, cosmopolitan surgeon and biologist of world-famous attainment pours out the philosophy for a thoughtful lifetime, suggesting the first outlines of of the science of man and giving the reader, in a simple language, as much medical knowledge as he needs to understand the argument. Dr. Carrel is a scientific Jeremiah crying that we are unhappy, we degenerate, morally, mentally,and physi- cally. He has advice to offer that will be hard to follow but may prove to be right. i The book is an unusal treatise and is constructive in pointing a way to the remaking of man. The meaning is easv to Hrasp and pleasant to read. B all m Flashes From Friends, Tough prisoner simpering in warden's office while the keeper explains: He wants to stay jupand lis 'ten to the radio.

The first edition of the Tattler on Sep- tember 21 established a record which has not been broken. 1079 Tattlers were sold on this date. Teachers Assigned Places At Meetings In Auditorium After a discussion held by the teach- ers and pupils when the Student Counil met last week, it was decided that teach- ers would be assigned to various sec- tions in the auditorium during mass meetings and movies. The duties of the teachers assigned a certain place will be to keep order in their section. A definite list of rules was not made up, but there is a general list which they will follow.

Students Comment On Visits To Museum Of Art The pictures and portraits in the Art Museum took on a new depth and singu- lar meaning to me as the guide explained each of them to the group. I am no longer in the dark as to what constitutes a good painting. I know now of the various things that group to make one picture or artist stand out above others. Much to my surprise, I found that our Art Museum has the best collections of glassware in the United States. Q Dora Jackman, Junior.

TEACHERS CONVENEQ McCLURE TO SPEAK Miss McClure The sixty-fourth annual session of the Northwestern Ohio Teachers' Associa- tion will be opened this evening at the Toledo Chamber of Commerce with a dinner and panel conference on Ohio school matters. Two general meetings are to be held tomorrow morning, one at the State Theatre and the other at the Civic audi- torium. Dr. Arthur B. Moehlan will ad- dress the teachers at the Civic audito- rium on Can the Schools Recover,? while Dr. Thomas H. Briggs is speaking on The Golden Rules of Education at the State theatre. So that the teachers may have the benefit of hearing both speakers, the two men will then, during a brief interlude, interchange. Following the morning sessions, there will be luncheons and department con- ferences. Miss Catherine McClure, girls' gym instructor at Woodward, will lead a discussion under the department of physical and health education at DeVil- biss high school. The closing meeting, including busi- ness and reorganization items, will be held on Friday evening in the Civic auditorium. ,l...1.l1- Induction Meeting Planned For National Honor Society To take charge of arrangements for induction, a committee was named yesterday at the National Honor society meeting.

King, Ethel Crane, Rosalie It's Up To Us EXT TUESDAY 42,000,000 people will poll the largest number of ballots ever cast in any election in the United States. Great political campaigns have been carried on in the past few weeks by the major parties. One of the apparently minor issues before the voters of Ohio is the repeal of the sales tax. As this tax is in general disliked by the public, it will prob- abl be re ealed This tax has su y p . pplied Toledo schools S300,000 each year. Due to increased opera- ting costs resulting from recent improvements, this deficit will amount to S500,000 a year. To prevent any further curtailment of our school system, which operates much lower than that of the average city, a tax levy of one-mill per annum for a period of four years has been placed before the Toledo voters. There are many minority groups in this city who, by various methods, are exaggerating this tax to prevent its passage. Thus by hiding the truth, they may prevent the passage of this levy so vital to our school system. For Better Culture F THE Gallic tribes in France, Caesar wrote, The bravest of these are the Belgians because they are the farthest in culture and civilization. The words ferocious and war-like can be used in- stead of brave. In Caesar's day this was a compli- ment, but certainly not in our time. If Belgians were fierce because they were far from culture, certainly we should be the most cultured of people, living in the vicinity of the sixth largest art museum in the United States. It is to be hoped that the trips of home rooms to the Art Museum will cause students to realize this fact more fully. Let's Dance AN ANYONE deny the social advantages of knowing how to dance? A dancing class, if car- ried through with spirit, enthusiasm, and the real desire to learn, should produce some tangible results. Last year this project was started, but somehow was not a success. This might have been due to the attendance of students who already had mastered the art, but these same students might be very helpful if approached in the right manner. Our building houses capable teachers for the sub- ject, so may we suggest that not only the seniors, but all of the underclassmen be given a chance to earn. Q--4 ,,- Anti-Noise Campaign HE gym class during the last weeks have been going from the gyms into the halls and onto the football and girl's fields. While in the halls, they chatter noisily and throw the equipment around making a lot of noise that disturbs the pupils in the classrooms. Last year the students wasted no time in the halls and no noise was allowed by the gym teachers. This year pupils, perhaps incited by the building activity, have forgotten themselves. Can we remedy this? Since we have been celebrating f'Educa- y tion Week, it might be well for us to-con- . ' sider what great men of the past and pres- I 'A ' ent thoughtiof education. The following egr- l L7 cerpts are taken from a list of seventy-six -commentations on that subject. They in- crease our belief in the value of universal education. It is only the ignorant who despise edu- cation. -Publius Syrus. 1Education is the best provision for old age.,'---Aris- tot e.

This is the deinite, authorized life of Jane Addams written by her nephew. It is compiled from old per- sonal files of her manuscripts, letters, records, clip- pings, and papers which she left to Professor Linn in her will. The book is intended not so much as an interpre- tation of Jane Addams as the story of her life. And what a story it is!---Surely few women---or even men-have had such a full and inspring career as she. Inseparable with her name has been Hull House, the first and most famous settlement house in the United States, and since this has been the peak and crown of her career, it is natural that the story of Hull House and its development should be one ofthe most interesting portions of the volume. Included also is the account of Miss Addams' part in instigating the investigation of the Chicago slums and the formulation of a model tenement code, her founding of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, and her brief excursion into national politics. Surely the thousands of people who cherish the memory of Jane Addams will be eternally grateful to James Weber Linn for this inspiring book.

The school received fifty passes from the management of the theatre. The DeVilbiss team also was a guest on the same evening. The Big Game, features such well- known stars as Phillip Huston, James Gleason, June Travis, Bruce Cabot, and Andy Devine. In addition to this cast eight members of the 1935 All-American team appeared in the picture. They are Bill Shakespeare ofNotre Dame, Gomer Jones of Oh-io State, Jay Berwanger of Chicago, Monk Moscrip of Stanford, Bobby Wilson of Southern Methodist, King Kong Klien of New York U., Bones Hamilton and Frank Alustiza, both of Stanford. On the same program was included Without Orders starring Sally Eilers and Robert Armstrong. Feminine Fan Figures First Exact Score Guess Of Year Attention all Woodwardites, especial- ly you male members! The first perfect soore of the year was turned in by a girl, Miss Ruth Males. For her guess of 20-0 favoring DeVilbiss, she receives a ticket to the Van Wert game. Since the Woodward vs. Maumee tilt will be played at Maumee, there will be no guessing blank this week. Dope Corner On the weekend schedule of high school games Waite and DeVilbiss clash in what is expected to be one ofthe outstanding games of the season. This game will have bearing on the city stand- ings as neither has been defeated to date although DeVilbiss has been held to a tie. If DeVilbiss wins they will move into first place, but a loss will drop them to fourth place and give Waite a undis- puted lead. Scott appears to be too strong for Fremont and expects an easy win. Libbey plays the Lima Central team and should add a little more to the prestige of Toledo football by bringing back a win. Woodward and Central are idle this week in preparation of a mad dash down the home stretch which will end in ' on November 21. mwlidvsiiy CUB SQUAD Fumbles, Misplays Of Bear Lightweights Give Libbey Win Taking advantage of Woodward fum- bles and misplays, the Libbey light- weights downed the Cubs 20 to 0 when they played here last Friday. The loss was the fourth sudered at the hands of inter-city foes in as many starts. After the Cowboys had marched to a touchdown in the early minutes of the first quarter, the Woodward Cubs played a heads-up game and held them scoreless for the rest of the half. Although the Woodward team fought at every turn, they were the victims of the breaks of the game and the Libbey eleven scored again in the third period. The final score came in the last period when the Cowboy forward wall broke through and blocked a Bankey punt which was recovered on the Woodward two. The Western Avenue backs prompt- ly shoved the ball over but failed to con- vert. Even if the Woodward gridders didn't make a very good showing there were a few bright spots in the line-up to give Coach Clark hope. Zelles, Rawski, Lyman Bankey were the outstanding Wood- ward gridders. Officials for the game were Bistlind and Mc Laughlin. W Awards Changed Diifering from the girls' athletic a- wards of previous years, the first em- blem will consist of the number of the year the recipient will graduate. The W will then become the second award, and as usual, chevrons will be given for their fourth year emblems. Engineering Classes Make Drawings As Work Project The advanced engineering classes, un- der the instuction of William Rohr, are making drawings for jumping stands for Ted Keller, head of physical edu- cation department in public schools. Drawings are also being made for a cupboard to store dishes and other cafe- teria utensils for the P.-T. A. of Stickney school. BEGIN PRACTICES Mr. Hanham For the last two weeks Homer Han- ham has had his varsity basketball charges working out in the gym after school. This year's team will see but two varsity men, I-rwin Dorf and Walter Bojanowski, returning. The majority of the team will be made up of reserves and boys from the freshman team. A general call for all basketball play- ers including reserves and boys from the freshman team, will be made later on. But for the present only varsity boys will have workouts. Boys who are out are: Walter Boja- nowski, Moses Haddad, Bob Robens, formerly of St. Johns, Sylvester Jaz- wiecki, Robert Hersberger, a six-footer from Anderson, Indiana, Ralston Lei- ninger, Julian Jordan, Clair James, Ziggie Kaminski, James Allen, and Irwin Dorf. Girls' Athletic Association To Form Dance Orchestra An attempt is being made by the Girls' W club to organize a dance band. Any member ofthe Girls' Athletic association who plays a musical instrument, sings, or tap dances is requested to report to the girls' gym today. It is not too late for a display of talent, so come to the girls' gym for furtherin- formation. Woodward Backiield Shines During Mediocre Year Presenting the Woodward Backfield Of the quartet pictured above, Johnny Golembiewski is the only senior. They are from left to right: Barney Banasiak, Johnny Golem- biewski, Teddy Szelagowski, Ed Bialorucki. All are good kickers and each has his specialty. Barney's is bucking the line, John and Ted throw most of the Woodward passes, and Ed calls the plays. 1 TILT TO DEVILBISS Bears Threaten But Tigers Hold And Register 20 Points Woodward nearly scored its first touchdown of the year in the DeVilbiss game last Friday night when Barney Banasiak ripped through tackle for 25 yards to what seemed to be a sure touchdown only to stumble on the DeVilbiss 25 yard line and be tackled from behind. DeVilbiss runners, behind hard clean blocking, tore through Woodward's line time after time only to be stopped by the Bears' backfield. In the first few minutes of play, the Bears gave DeVilbiss followers a scare by making a first down on Banasiak's ten yard thrust through tackle. DeVilbiss scored its first touchdown early in the Hrst quarter on a 25 yard around end. Its second came on the first play of the second quarter on a buck into the center of the line for three yards. Its last touchdown came on 20 yards of broken field running. DeVilbiss' heralded passing attack did not click the few times it was tried. One of the passes was intercepted on Woodward's five-yard line, preventing another DeVilbiss touchdown. Three Teams Tied For Lead In Inter-Scholastic Grid Race Over the week end two of the city leaders, Waite and Devilbiss, added an- other mark to their win list to keep their record intact. Waite is one of the few state teams with a perfect record to date. Central and Woodward were placed deep in the city cellar as a result of their losses at the hands of these top heavy favorites. The standings are as follows: W L T Pct. Waite 2 0 O 1.000 DeVilbiss 2 0 1 1.000 Scott 2 0 1 1.000 Libbey 2 1 0 .667 Central 0 3 0 .000 Woodward 0 4 0 .000 Police Give Drivers' Tests To Pupils Wishing To Drive Students who signed to take a driver's license test were examined by city po- lice this week. Ninty-one signed to take the test last Friday. Those pupils failing to sign last week applied Monday in the auditorium. Students took the test on different days this week at 3:00. The applicants used their own cars while taking this test. The examination consisted of a series of driving maneuvers and questions. Ten questions were asked of which students had to answer five successfully to pass the examination. After a student passed this test, he received his license upon receipt of the fee which is forty cents. BffA'mEl5X Woodward's Polar Bears engaged in a scrimmage with the Perrysburg team Tuesday afternoon. The gridders have metthe Rossford Bulldogs three times, and each time after they scrimmage, they do bettter against their opponents. Thus it would seem their scrimmages should be made regular events. James Morel began practicing with the Bears this week and should be a welcome addition to the team when he will be eligible next year. The Bear gridders have been gaining confidence in themselves and are ex- pecting to win the next three games so as to give themselves a good start with which to continue next year. CAST FOR MYSTERY Emotional Selections Read By Candidates At Tryouts A unique method of tryouts in casting or the Little Theatre Guild play, Three Taps at Twelve, was used whereby the prospective character in the play had to read an emotional speech, character- istic ofthe person whose part he wanted to take. He also had to give a mystery pantomine. Those chosen for roles are: Edwin Dolbeck, played by William Mundg Dr. Hull, William Bloomer, Dick Edwards, Mike Jakcsy, Jamieson Edwards, Max Davis, Harmon Gage, Nathan Davis! Catfish Carruthers, Bruce Lumleyg Cas- sandra, Laura Ellen Derrg Martha Gage, Elsie Shemasg Mrs. Jane Baker, Dora Jackman. I . The understudy for the feminine characters, Cassandra, Martha Gage, and Mrs. Jane Baker, are Lillian Bara- basz, Grace Miller, and Virginia Slu- pecki, respectively.

MOWRER SPEAKS fEditor,s note: This is a resume of the Saturday Night Open Forum attend- ed by Martha Murzynski and Aaron Novick.J I have come back with my personal impression of charming people but very cruel, stated Edgar Ansel Mowrer, European correspondent for the Chicago Daily News, referring to the Spaniards in his topic, The Truth About Spain, when he opened the Saturday Night Open Forum Junior High. Because he many Turns Mowrer was However the Pulitzer prize last week at Robinson published his book, Ger- the Clock Back, Mr. expelled from Germany. book was awarded the in 1933. The war is the most inefficient and most gruesome that I have ever had any contact withj' declared the speaker. He added that the people only think of doing away with their enemy, and shooting them down is a common occurrence. AT OPEN FORUM The people are divided into two political groups. One-third is composed of the military facists and the remain- ing two-thirds headed by Francisco Caballero are defending the government. There is no public opinion directed against the facist leaders because they work in absolute secrecy. They have an advantage over the loyalist leaders who must limit their statements to prevent uprising of the people. Of the 473 deputies in the government, the popular front has a fair majority of 268. The facists and conservatives hold 157 seats, about one-third percent, leav- ing 48 deputies in the center. The government has good chances of winning unless troops from Africa are brought in. The Italians and Germans have equipped the rebel forces, and some actually took part in the fight. If the rebels continue to be aided their victo- ry is more possibleg thereby the Euro- pean war will be brought one step nearer. nr-uanu vv mmm bt'1It1'1' DE SERTS CUSTOMS Modern Times Influence Old Lady To Change From Stick To Plane I And she sailed along on her magic broom stick, her black hair streaming in the moonlight. One night, long ago, as I was wander- ing through the cornfields on my uncle's farm, I heard a soft voice speak to me. Won't you come to my place and, pay me a little visit? Whirling about, I saw a kindly old! lady, garbed in somber rainment with! long, flowing black hair. I recognized her immediately as the spirit of Hallow- een. My natural curiosity overcame my fear and I accepted her invitation. As we glided along on the magic broom I saw that we were headed toward a de- serted old cave, in the heart of a dense forest. Soft, wierd music was being played somewhere as she showed me about her dimly lighted cave. After a pleasant eve- ning, I returned to my home with many happy memories. Years have passed. In the same field I stfood. Somehow, I felt that the spirit of Halloween would return to this place. Suddenly I heard the roar of a high powered motor, and an airplane glided down beside me. Now who should step out of the plane but the spirit of Halloween. But what change had oc- curred since I had last seen her. In- stead of a stately old lady, there ap- peared before my astonished eyes, a smartly dressed woman. Short, blond tresses had replaced the long black hair. But her manner of speech was the most shocking! Say, big boy, she said. Why not come up and see me sometime. How about tonight? You ought to see my shack now. Is it nifty! Hop in the bus and Illl take you there. You know these planes are a lot better than those old broomsf' In a sort of daze, I went with her. The cave had been transformed into a virtual palace, and from the house em- erged strains of swing music. This was the last straw. All my illusions about Halloween came tumbling about my ears. I turned and fied. Each year, how- ever, when Halloween rolls around, I find time to dream of the good old days. Girls' Feet Examined In Gym To Prevent Foot Epidemics A thorough inspection of each and every girl was conducted during the last few days in the girls' gym to pre- vent an epidemic of athlete's foot. Any- one having the slightest symptoms of this disease was given immediate at- tention by Miss Hazel Coy. This careful procedure is taken twice a year. Miss Catherine McClure and Miss Stella Cornwell are aided in inspection by members of the Leaders' class.

Ersig, Tat- tler adviser, owner of dogs, and gener- al mama to all of the Tattler oflice gang. With a flair for interior decorat- ing, this smiling Mrs. tries constantly and with unceasing effort to keep at least one corner of the editor's desk top in evidence, but all in vain. Her tastes run toward Fords, poetry, more copy, and the legitimate stage. She dashes from the building promptly at 2:30 each day with her familiar cry, Where are my keys? But we love her nevertheless. Junior Cabinet Announces Selection Of Committees Selection of the program and social committees was made by the junior class cabinet. Contrary to previous years the vice- president, George Spaulding, will be chairman of the program committee.

Make-Up Used By Dramatic Class To Change Features Would any of you girls care to change your faces? You would? All right, just step right up to Miss Dorothy Kellogg's first hour dramatic class and let them proceed to work on you.

Masterpiece Executed By Girls In Teacher's Absence Amid bursts of hilarious laughter, heard at frequent intervals, a group of giggling girls stood grouped around one little sophomorein MissJ une Anderson's art class. From their depths came mys- terious whisperings. A few of the girls dashed for water and scampered back to the gathering. The rest of the class held their breath with expectation. Finally emerging from beneath the depths of the group with triumph, the little sophomore exhibited a dripping water color painting. It consisted of a bright mass. of colors which was sup- posed to represent a natural scene. Taking advantage of Miss Anderson's absence, each girl had taken a brush, dipped it in the color, and attempted to add her bit to the painting. The effect of the design was startling, but the girls considered it a masterpiece. Tattler Staff Plans Roast Instead Of Annual Dinner Instead of holding the annual lunch- eon for Tattler staff members, it has been decided to hold a Weiner roast at Mrs. Marie D. Ersig's new home from five to nine p.m. on Armistice Day. Those on the committee planing the affair are Martha Murzynski, Robert Shuff, and George Spaulding.

Pressmen ..... ........ ,,,,,,, Faculty Advisers ..........,.....,,,.,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,-,,,,,,,, Reporters-George Two Minutes N NEXT Wednesday, we observe the signing of the Armistice which occurred on that unfor- getable eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of 1918. Our observance will probably consist of a joyful, no school ! And that will be all. It is difficult for us to realize what meaning the very first armistice held for those whose lives it saved. Perhaps if the remembrance of that reconciliation holds over strongly enough, it will be the end of the beginning of the muchtalked about next war . It behooves the young people of today to remember this fact so often that it becomes true. So in the two minutes of consecrate silence next Wednesday, let us fervently hope that there will be no next war to cause the next armistice. We Are Gone ARLY this morning two carloads of boisterous Tattler staff members sped to the thirteenth annual newspaper convention in Columbus. Right now they are sitting in on round table dis- cussions on various phases of newspaper work. Tomorrow, after seeing the Ohio State-Chicago football game, they will return. We hope that what they are gaining from this convention will be reflected in a better written, a better edited, and better styled paper. - How Smart Are We? INAL grades are to be handed in today. It is hoped that the intelligence and ability possesed by Woodward students will be revealed next week when the grade cards will be issued. Many pupils were given a chance during the last week to improve their grades by making up back work. and should appreciate this opportunity given to them. Evidence of this appreciation might be shown by better work which would prove to mem- bers of the faculty whether or not its efforts are in vain. .- What's Wrong, Boys? ECENTLY the Tattler published an editorial urging the formation of a dancing class. A movement by Principal LaRue to organize this group resulted in many more girls signing than boys. At a recent afternoon dance the attendance of girls far outnumbered their usual majority over the boys. - We infer that either the boys here are backward or else they can't dance. But we well know that Woodward males are not bashful. This condition can be remedied by more boys inn-thin.-f 0+ +Lm ,.I.....,.,. +A :,.:.. LL.. ,1-..-:.... 4--- Monday, November 2: Gee, it's COLD.

We hope the cards will be a pleasant surprise but we won't be too TO DEVILBISS CUBS Heavy Opponents Use Short Passes To Conquer Woodward Opposed by a heavy DeVilbiss light- weight squad, the Woodward cubs went down to their fifth intra-city defeat by a score of 19-0 at Woodward Thursday, October 29. A strong wind which retarded Wood- ward punts gave the, Tigers a touch- down in the first few minutes of play. A plunge brought the extra point. De- Vilbiss scored again in the first period by a long end run but failed to convert. Short passes accounted for many of the gains. Neither squad scored in the second and third quarters, although the Bears came within five yards of a touchdown. The Tigers failed to complete any of the short passes which had worked so successfully in the first quarter. The Tigers scored once again in the last quarter by a long end run. They again failed to convert, making the final score 9-0. The following boys participated in the game: Mike Kaczlowski, Joseph Brocki, Clifton Manore, William Scott, Clarence We-ry, Edward Rybka, Charles Lyman, William Raczko, Ernest Bankey, Roger Staebler, Ed Hauter, Art Pierron, Man- ual Zellas, Joseph Pilatowski. Reviews Trip Reporting on her trip to the Pacific Coast, Miss Louise Tippett was the main speaker at the last regular meet- ing of the Periclean Literary society held October 28. Miss Tippett advises the organization. Biography Reviews Given By Pupilsln English Class Members of Mrs. M. D. Ersig's eighth hour English class gave five minute speeches last week on biographies that they had read. Some of the books reviewed were, The Prairie Years, Buffalo Billj' P.T. Barnum, Twenty Years at Hull House, Will Rogers, Son of the Middle Bor- der, Clara Barton, Ford, Helen Eellerj' 'iBret Hartej, and Robert E. ee. Club Has Emblems Under the direction of Norma Mottetv the committee for selection of distinc' tions for the Periclean Literary society has chosen blue pi signs to represent their club. Miss Louise Tippett is adviser to the organization, Zets Plan Skate The Zetalethean Literary society will sponsor a skating party, Ze Zet Zwirl, Friday evening, November 13, at Mem- orial Hall. With Henrietta Rump acting as chairman, Virginia Schlievert, Dorothy Siebenaller, and Charlotte Wood are the committee in charge. History Instructor Scraps Neutrality Pact With Flies Buzz, swat, slam, and another fiy goes down with Miss Louise Tippett as their murderess. Declaring war on these household pests, she went to it with a wh-am and a bang last Wednesday. Not using a well-advertised remedy, but with card- board strip from apad of absence blanks, our dignified history teacher waged a heroic battle in swing time. Though she reassured her students that no harm would come tothem, many had fear for the glass windows. This reporter feared to stay to the finish, and finally escaped with life itself when a well-timed blow whizzed past his ear. It seems that a treaty must have been declared, or all the dies killed for there were no weap- ons in sight the next day and no fiies. Moral: A swat in time saves frazzled I. 4.9 . F' .. ij -459 - The Junior members of Woodward's varsity tripped up the seniors in a short game between the halves of the light- weight game last week. The juniors scored once while the seniors could do no more than threaten. Skip Boykin was injured in the junior senior game when he was pulled down from behind. He will undoubtedly be able to play when the whistle blows for the Maumee tilt. Woodward's gridders received their first layoff on account of weather con- dition-s last Monday. The practice was not absolutely necessary as the Bears have another week before their next game. 0 0 a Bob Stack is back in school after an absence caused by an appendicitis oper- ation. Though Bob cannotparticipate in athletics for some time yet everyone expects him to come back nextyear and become one of the finest backs in the city. I C O Joe Barbara, injured center, is keep- ing limbered up by running every night. It is hoped that he will be able to don his pads and play before the season ends, November 27. Spanish, Mexican Articles Displayed By Organization Spanish and Mexican articles includ- ing a Spanish water jar, Mexican choco- late mixer, and a shoulder shall from To- ledo, Spain, were exhibited in the display case during last week by the Spanish club. Among numerous other things were clay figurines, ornaments in nut shells, Mexican baskets and jars, and sandals made of hemp. Dance Planned Plans for another Christmas dance sponsored by the German and Spanish clubs are being made by the ofiicers of the clubs. The dance is scheduled to be held December 23. Miss Annie Wetterman is adviser of both clubs. Class To Visit W.S.P.D ln connection with the discussion of radio held recently by sophomore stu- dents in Mrs. Dorothy Matheny's first hour class, a visit to the W. S.P.D. broadcasting station is being planned for the near future. Members Of Municipal Club Informally Initiated Nov. 4 The informal initiation of the Munici' pal club was held last Tuesday, Novem- ber 4, jointly with a Weiner roast at Ottawa Park. Evelyn Lenga was in charge of the initiation and Helen Has' cal in charge of the roast. Miss Marian McDonough is adviser of the organization. Class Mystery Solved By Inquisitive Woodwardite Slowly they descended swinging with the ominous regularity of a pendulum. Back and forth, ever slowly, back--and ---forth, a pair of huge shoe-incased feet. A gutteral voice sounded somewhere behind the window-shade. A pair of denim-incased legs slid silent- ly down and three sharp raps were heard on the window. The startled class raised its eyes as one person, while a shiver of fear shook every body. Then three more raps, this time more imperative and distinctly insistent were accompanied by an angry, deep- ly-accented foreign voice. An adventurous pupil fearfully lifted up the window shade only to disclose a rather disturbed pair of painters who only wanted the window shoved up so ON GRID SHOWING C. M. Meek Under the Ohio State football code of rules it is impossible for a green team to become experienced by the time the grid season opens, stated Athletic D1rector.C. M. Meek between phone calls, which came in about five a minute while writing excuses for absentess. Ac- cording to rules no team can begin practice before September 1, and since our first game was September 25, it left us very little time to whip the boys in shape. Another factor for the team's poor showing to. date given by Mr. Meek were the injuries received from the much heavier Libbey and Scott teams which put many of the players, upon whom Coach Smith had counted, out of the game. Among the most notable of these were Bob Stack's injury in the Libbey game, and later his operation for appendicitis which put him out of the lineup for the rest of the season, Joe Barbara's leg injury which put the star center out of commission. Since very few players are going to be lost through graduation, concluded the congenial sophomore boys' adviser, we are looking forward to a team which will be one ofthe leading elevens in the city race. Woodward, J acksoxz Mich. Sign Contract For '37 Tilt A vacant spot in the Woodward schedule for next year has been filled by Clyde Meek who has arranged for a game with Jackson, Michigan. If it is satisfactory to both schools the contract may be extended. The game to be played on October 29 ot next year will be played at Jackson. Bears To Meet Undefeated Van Wertians Thanksgiving A turkey day tussle will be on the pro- gram for the Woodward Polar Bears this year as they will travel to Van Wert on Thursday, November 26. This is the first Thanksgiving day tilt for Woodward in many years. The Van Wert game was previously scheduled for Saturday, November 7. This game was on activities tickets but will be replaced by a show. The change of this game was suggest- ed by Van Wert and negotiated by C .M. Meek with Principal C.,P. Bowdle and Superintent U. E. Diener of Van Wert. Movie Substituted Because the Van Wert game will be played at Van Wert on Thanksgiving Day, C. M. Meek, athletic director, has announced that this attraction will be replaced on the activities ticket program by a movie. Dope Corner Looking at the football calender Sat- urday November 7, we find that three city teams will see action. The 'dghting Irish of Central are matched with Scott's Bulldogs at the latter's field, and the Waite Indians will play Knoxville, the '35 Tennessee state champs, at Knox- ville. Consulting the cards, we see Scott defeating Central, and Waite emerging the victor from a tight game with the optimistic. f -nerves ,they could continue painting. Tennessee lads. ASSEMBLY IN SONGS Member Of University Civic Theater Prominent In All Singing Jules Blair, prominent in Toledo act- ivities, lead the community sing which was given for all activities ticket hold- ers during the third hour today.

This noted entertainer was brought here by LeCercle Francais, Woodward French Club. This program was planned because of the success of former similar song fests here.

Clark Gable, nothing! That's me and I think it looks more like Henry Fonda. On second thought it reminds me of Stan Laurel, mutters Sally, and she drops the photo as though it were a fish-worm. i'I'm not going to have it put in the Saga. That's all there is to it.

Larvae Find Nest On Mount In Biology Teacher's Room Ravenous larvae found a home on a Riker mount in Miss Grace Cronk's first hour, biology class. These larvae were making a meal of a sphinx moth when found. Pupils were examining the various insect specimens when the deed was discovered. Shedded skin, holes in the body, and half eaten wings were the proofs that the insect's body was be- ing attacked. It seems that the coddling moth found the sphinx moth a suitable place to lay her eggs and rear her young. In order to prevent the spread of the larvae to other specimens, this mount is being isolated from the others. MEETING TUESDAY Meek To Speak On Athletics, Band To Play Under Sutphen Because the November meeting date of the Mother's club falls on Armistice day the second meeting of the group will take place Tuesday, November 10, in the club room.

Pupils Converse To carry on successful interesting con- versation is being taught to her English classes by Miss Dorothy Kellogg. Each student writes his name on a slip of paper, and as his name is drawn from a box, he must converse with two other classmates fulfilling the requirements of time, place, and character. . Girl Wins Contest On form B test given to 300 freshman science students, Alice Morse came out on top with 49 of the 50 questions cor- rect.

Opportunity Knocking AM AN editorial. The story directly to my right entitled In the Parkv may seem pointless, and as editorials are reserved for points and morals, here is the point. This is not an isolated case, but is typical of the average family where growing children attempt to display their increasing knowledge. Many students make the mistake of correcting parents' errors in English at most inopportune and embarrassing moments. I, as an editorial, can advise against this practice with Emily Post's approval. Canlt we stop long enough in this mad rush of a world to realize the opportunity open to students in the public schools to learn our language and learn it well? We can look forward to a general improve- ment in education during the years to come, and a decrease of stuttering, stammering Pops who do not know the fundamentals of our mother tongue. Brass Tax UBMERGED under a deluge of the Democratic landslide, one nationally insignificant but local- ly vital fact stood out. The sales tax on food was removed and a proposed one mill levy for Toledo schools was refused. Teachers can anticipate a ten or fifteen percent reduction in pay, students, a shortening of the school term by at least two weeks. Even if a stop-gap bill is proposed in the next session of the state legisla- ture, the time consumed in its passage would not permit its aiding the present situation. ' The people have spoken. The legislature is impo- tent as far as the present school term is concerned. In order that the students may not lose out, the teachers will try to cover the required course in the shortened time. The teachers however will beimpo- tent if the students do not cooperate. Team work will do it.. . o- Books To Grow On HROUGHOUT the nation the seventeenth annual Book Week will be held beginning Wednesday. Due to the chaotic conditions ex- isting in the world today, books which will give the student perspective and a factual and historical background will be emphasized. Teachers can give pupils only a small amount of factual knowledge because of the short time spent in classrooms. To obtain the perspective necessary to utilize learning, we must make use of books. At the same time a general background of sound facts is acquird. The Woodward Library Association is doing well by promoting Book Week here. In response stu- dents shnuld remember the national slogan this vear, Books to grow on---the modern world for PRINCIP By C. C. LaRue 7 Every pupil in Woodward should have seen the film 'fOne Thousand Hours that f - was snown November 2 in our auditorium. For those who did not see it the content was briefly this. A young man of perhaps lx A' sixteen years, his book under his arm, is X pictured leaving a high school building. 'X Things have gone wron g as is evidenced by his dejected appearance. He is discoi raged with school and wishes to quit and get a real job. His ambition is to become an air pilot. He meets an older friend who is an aviator. In the conversation that fol- lows the pilot tells the disgruntled student as well as a group of other youngsters also interested in aviation that they must have at least two years of college work and one thousand hours of flying before they may even become a co-pilot. The last flashes of the film show the discontented student back at his desk diligently preparing for his future job. How many times have you young people envied some one his good position? The work seems so easy, the surroundings are pleasant, and the pay is good. But what are the qualifications that one must have to hold one of these seemingly easy positions. Not long ago a man applied to the head of one of our local meat packing houses for the position of stamper.', The applicant had seen the oval shaped indelible ink stamps on the meat, which are placed there by a gov- erment inspector. He thought this mustbe a 'lsoftv job for some one. He did not know that the person quali- fied to use that stamp must be a high school graduate, a graduate of a verterinary college, and pass a state examination. Yet it looked like such an easy job. This is only one of many instances that proves the contention that education pays. Several things are nec- essary in getting and holding agood position. Not the least of these is educational preparation. The opportu- nity for such preparation is now yours. Donlt envy any one his jobg prepare yourself for one of your own. a In The Park It was a crisp autumn day when the wind seemed to send shivers up and down your spine. A little boy was tramping along the street with his father. The lad was a bright red headed little urchin with a strawberry nose that seemed' to be swallowed up by a generous mouth, where six teeth were con- spicuous by their absence. Say Pop, queried the scamp, what's in the park in the sentence, 'I walked in the park'? The child's father squinted ldue to the terrific brain storm he was trying to createl and coughed convul- sively. Shortly he remarked Brr, it's cold out today. Knowing his parent was attempting to change the subject, Sonny repeated his question. Humph, sputtered his dad, 'ini is a noun, 'the' is a preposition, and 'park' is a pronoun. There now, don't you think your father is smart? When I was your age I was always at the head of the class. Yeh, pop, and I'll bet you wore the 'big hat', huh? Well, anyhow those ain't what you said they was. He paused impressively, 'in the park' is pr-prep-o-sitionalf that's right, it's a prepositional phrase. I learned that in school today.

Inquiring Reporter Do you think the individual photos of all students, the added number of action shots, and the other Saga improvements will increase the value of the year book? I think it will undoubtedly increase the value. I think everyone likes to see not only his senior friends in close-up but also his freshmen, sopho- more, and junior acquaintances. Lewis Beebe, Senior. Yes, I do. The individual pictures and other im- provemenls are all of great value to the Saga. Changes are always interesting in anything and tend to create greater interest. Everett Lords, Junior. '4The individual pictures have already made a hit with the students since those 750 Sagas which were first ordered to be printed sold with a bang and more had to be ordered. Grace Wheeler, Junior. I think it will also help make friends of one an- other and one can know the entire school better? Nickey Alleneos, Freshman. Without a doubt, this year's Saga wiil be better in these respects than last year's. I think that in- dividual photos will double the book's value in years to come. Doris Shortt, Senior. I think the increased number of action pictures not only enlivens the Saga but creates greater in- terest among the students of the school. Frank Scott, Sophomore. Of course the increased number of action pic- tures stirs up a great interest in each student. In this way it will be enlarging this book. , Dorothy Swaya, Sophomore.

Our Comic Strip Roaming around the corridors we noticed man Woodwardites who remind us of the comic strip George Skaff and Bernice Cassis weren't livingi the prehistoric ages but nevertheless they are exce lent illustrations of Alley Oop and Oola. Jimmie Parker and Eddie Blaszczyk are two tr life pictures of Skippy and Muggs McGinnis, til pranksters of the funnies. Boots and Tillie Toiler, the sweethearts of comic have nothing on Lois Hall and Joan Weiss. If Dorothy Coy doesn't make you think of Littl Orphan Annie, who does? Flash Gordon, our hero, has a marvelous sha ow? in the person of Bob Tyukody. Margie Schroeder and Mary Mixup seem like o and the same person. Or don't they? Last but not at all the least, James Morel, t Maumee addition to Woodward, reminds us of t daring character of the comics, Dan Dunn. Well, we'll be seeing you in the funnies. ATHLETIC LEAGUE PLANS ACTIVITIES Advisers Address Girls At Meet, Pantomines Presented Miss Cornwell Various demonstrations of athletic activities that are carried on in the girls' gym were presented to members of the Girls, Athletic League and fresh- men girls last Monday conference hour. This was the last meeting which could be attended by anyone other than mem- bers of the league. Miss Catherine McClure explained the fundamentals of intra-murals and answered questions that were puzzling to those working for letters. She also explained that the WW girls would act as the cabinet of the Athletic League and that the W club was not a sepa- rahe club. Miss Stella Cornwell announced that every manager of an intra-mural team would be notified as to the time of the next meeting. In case of the absence of a manager, a substitute should be sent in her place. She emphasized that any who failed a subject would be automa- tically dropped. Educational movies, speeches, and demonstration were planned for the near future. Splash parties, skating, parties weiner roast, and hikes are the activities to take place under the social affairs. A song called Pals was sung by all the letter girls to close the meeting. Esther Gust president, presided. Regular Girls' Gym Classes Study Rules For Volley Ball Although regular gym classes have begun studying the rules and regula- tions of volley ball, intra-mural teams are still playing field-ball and soccer. The following schedule tabulates the games to be played next week: Monday, November 16 Field Ball Red Hot Speedsters vs. Sureshots Tuesday, November 17 Soccer Spartans vs. Jeeps Wednesday, November 18 Field Ball Yankees vs. Wildcats Thursday, November 19 Soccer Jinx vs. Sure Shots Friday, November 20 Soccer Red Hot Speedsters vs. French Club Dippy Definition While studying the spinal column and its func-tions, Miss Hazel Coy gave this definition to her home nursing students: The spinal column is a flexible rod, your head sits on one end and you sit on the other. Cold Weather Forces Girls' Gym Classes To Meet Inside Since the weather has prevented out' door gy-m classes, regular athletic rou- tines have begun indoors. Practice in throwing, catching, and volleying the ball have come into effect in the study of the rules for volley ball which will be the next indoor game to be played in BASK BEGINS PRACTICING Fifteen Work Out Nightlyg Some Still Playing Football Under the guidance of Dave Weisberg, about 15 boys areworking out in the gym to keep in condition until the regular basketball practice starts. As some of the boys are still playing football, all prospects are not out. This group is also being drilled fundamentals. The boys who are working out at present are fellows who will probably make the varsity as they were on the reserves and lightweights last year. Since Homer Hanham and Dave Mc- Murray are still assisting with the foot- ball team, a general call will not be made and regular practice will not be started uni il Monday after football prac- tice is over. The schedule for the year is: Dec. 11, Blissfield, Here Dec. 18, Van Wert, There Dec. 19, Lima Central, There Jan. 8, Central, There Jan. 15, Bowling Green, There Jan. 19, Scott, Here Jan. 22, Waite, Here Jan. 26, DeVilbiss, There Jan. 29, Vocational, Here Feb. 2, Libbey, There Feb. 5, Cent al, Here Feb. 9, Open Feb. 11, Scott, There Feb. 16, Waite, There Feb. 19, DeVilbiss, Here Feb. 23, Vocational, There Feb. 26, Libbey, Here Woodward Bowlers Tied With Vocational Team Bowling has become a prominent sport to many of the students of differ- ent high schools. Although the regular high school bowling league has not yet started, a pick up league has been formed among the schools. Completing their fourth week of play, the Woodward team assembled by Bob Boyles is tied for first place with the' Vocational team with ten wins and two losses. The boys who have been bowling are: Charles Sherman, Bud Kime, Ray Balott, Al Davis, Frank Scott, and Bob Boyles. Charles Sherman has the highest in- dividual scoring record with a 224 game while Bob Boyles has the highest three game total score of 550. With a 2388 total, Woodward held the highest team score last Saturday. Student Council Convened On Ninth Day Of November The Student Council held its last reg- ular student court session Monday, No- vember 9, at 2:30. Previous to this time it had been de- cided that all students who receive no- tices to appear before the court for some offense shall receive penalties for non- appearance as well as for the crime if they do not present a satisfactory ex- cuse for their absence. Mrs. Mary Schuler and Mr. Frank Duvendack are advisers of the organi- zation. OVER MAUMEE TEAM TOMORROW KGridders In Good Condition INTRA-MURAL LOOP CLOSES GRID SEASON The first sport of the intra-mural schedule, football, was completed with the All Stars and the Machine Shop the winners in their league. The All Stars clinched the title in their league by winning ahard fought battle against the Quill and Dagger team. There were many ties for the other places. Volleyball is the next sport to be played. Until the boys, gym is completed, the games will be played in the girls' gym. The two leaders will play each other, with the winner getting five extra points. ' Joe Bloom, adviser of intra-murals, is working hard to make a success of every sport. each Below are the points given to team: NATIONAL LEAGUE Pts.

Kelly For All-American Vince Kelly Newspaper sport writers and coaches are endless in their praise of Vincent fShipwreckJ Kelly, former Woodward guard, who is now setting opposition on its ears with his brilliant work with the Gamecocks of the University of South Carolina. The following paragraph is an excerpt from a story by Jack Senn, columnist of the Toledo News-Bee. Kelly is rated the best guard in the entire South, and after his performance in the Gamecocks' game against Duke's great eleven, Wallace Wade, Duke coach, declared that the Toledo lad was one of the greatest players he had ever seen and that Kelly would be his iirst choice for All-American guard. Tattler Convention Dole After listening to various speakers at the 13th annual convention last week- end, the Tatter journalists who traveled to Columbus entered the Ohio State stadium to witness the Ohio-Chicago game. On entering the stadium they were impressed and overawed by the im- mensity of it. Then as the teams came out on the field the crowds roared. The squads were very large and there seem- ed to be managers everywhere taking care of the needs of the team. The reknowned O.S.U. band came in at the closed end of the field and marched to the other end where they played the Star Spangled Banner as the flag was raised. gates See College Game the sidelines and the game began. Ohio kicked off to Chicago but after three fu- tile tries Chicago punted to Ohio State and in the next series of plays came one of the outstanding plays of the game. The ball on this play changed hands sev- eral times with Tippy Dye, quarterback, throwing a 50 yard pass to Antenucci for a touchdown. ' The game was pretty much Ohio with the State reserves playing part of the game. The half found Ohio's band going through maneuvers and writing out Ohio in scrip instead of block letters. This band is the only one which can do this as yet. The second half was much the same as the first with Ohio State emerging 4-0 count. . After 'Three Week Vacation Attempting to win their first game of the season, the Woodward Polar Bears will meet the Maumee gridders at Page Stadium Saturday afternoon. Because the game will be their first start in three weeks, the Bears ought to be rested up enough from previous strenuous city games. Since Rossford beat the Maumee eleven 73-0 and the Woodward varsity h s twice taken the Bulldogs into camp during practice ses- sions, dopesters are predicting the first Bear win of the season. Since Joe Barbara and Harry Parker will probably still be unable to play be- cause of injuries received in practice sessions, Coach Art Smith will most likely start Al Navarre at the pivot post and Bob Shuff at right guard. It is un- certain whether Barney Banasiak will start because of a minor operation. Bialorucki will see action at the fullback post if Coach Smith decides to keep Banasiak out. The starting line-ups will be as fol- lows: Woodward Pos. Maumee Ford L E. Brillhart Greenwood L T. Overmever Stoykoff L G. DeSandro Navarre C. Shepard Shuff R G Rassabaum Wichowski R T. Bennett Nowak R E. Jones Golembiewski Q B. Shepard Pelczarski L H Mahan Szelagowski R H Graves Banasiak F B. E. Brillhart Electrical Shop Conducts Experiments On Radio Set As the W. P. A. has finished painting the room which the electrical shop has built to develop pictures and observe electrical phenomina, the shop,with A. R. Bitter at the head is buildinga ven- tilator for the air-tight room. The shop has a radio for experiment- ing in this section connected with a microphone in the auditorium. If the experiment is a success they plan to put a receiver attached to the auditori- um in every class room so students may listen to programs from the audi- torium in their class rooms. Woodwardites Attend City Junior Red Cross Assembly Mary Ellen Wachtell, Juanita Tegt- meyer, James Marsh, and Roy Shaffer, members of Woodward's chapter of the Junior Red Cross, attended a city-wide meeting of the association at Monroe school yesterday. Laura Ellen Derr and Richard Schumaker, public speaking pupils, were present to hear the speech- es stressing participation in the annual roll call beginning November 11. They in turn, with Doris Shortt and Max Davis will speak before various lunch- eon clubs during the annual drive. Dope Corner Scanning over the football schedule for Saturday afternoon, November 14, we see that five of the six high school squads will see action. Central travels to Cleveland to play the strong Cathedral Latin. The Waite Indians will try to add another scalp to their collection when they tangle with the Libbey Cowboys. South Bend, Indi- ana, will be the host of the undefeated Scott Bulldogs, while our Polar Bears entertain Maumee at Scott. We predict the following results: Cathedral wins over the Irish by a nar- row margin, the Cowboys scalped by the Indians, the Bulldogs remaining un- defeated, and the Bears winning their iirstlame. PROVES POPULAR 'King Of Sings' Leads Pupils In Popular Numbers Here Friday If you canlt sing, whistle, was the encouragement offered by smiling Jules Blair to students participating in the community sing last Friday during con- ference hour. Mr. Blair sometimes referred to as the King of Sings was invited to Woodward by Le Cercle Francais. Singing was started with School Day. The audience showed its enthusi- asm by responding loudly to the songs. Among other songs were the follow- ing: Let Me Call You Sweetheart, The Man on the Flying Trapeze, After the Ball, Tavern in the Town,' The Music Goes 'Round, and When' Irish Eyes are Smiling. Violet Sheckler played the piano ac- companiments. Miss Adrienne Curtis is adviser of the French club. Olub Notes An interesting book review on Will Rogers by R. J.

Yes, boys, the girls have done it again 5 the sophomores this time, with another class president. A high spirited, outdoor loving girl is this likable person. This interviewer gathered that J une's most favorite pas- sion is horseback riding and when once on the subject she has a one track mind. Lively and full of fun, yet she is quite capable of holding an executive position. Our big event, the sophomore dance, will be April 9, she announced. 'fBut our class is planning to carry on many activities between now and then. June's opinion of the rest of her cabi- net is a high one, and she feels sure they will all take part to the best of their abilities. Reading, especially western stories, and painting and drawing are this pre- sident's hobbies. When asked how it felt to-be in such a high oflice, she said withalaugh, I haven't had time yet to find out. Oh yes, we forgot to add, her favorite colors are blue and orange and a main ambition to travel on a bicycle. Classroom Clippings Miss June Anderson's fourth hour class is designing heads of women. The students are painting them in water- color. ! O I In order to become better citizens, framing of personality is being studied by students in James Pollockis sociol- ogy classes. o o o For further study of plant life, Miss Grace Cronk's fourth hour biology classes were shown slides during their laboratory periods. o 0 0 During a newswriting class period, similes of various persons were given. One girl was described as being as jolly as Santa Claus. There ain't no Santa Claus,', burst out Eugene Haddad amid gales of laugh- ter. O l O Miss Dorothy Kellogg's English class- es have joined the Book of the Month Club. The students are required to read eight books this month.

Acting as chairman, Henrietta Rump is assisted by Virginia Schlievert, Doro- thy Siebenaller, and Charlotte Wood. Miss Edith Murphy is adviser of the society. Tattler Tattlers Trouble Teacher Toasting Tamales Teacher, Teacher, she's cheating on me. She had four and a half. You would think that she was afraid she wasn't going to get her share, the way shels going at them, this coming from Norma Jean Allen as Theresa Lipper ex- tracts another much worshipped cookie from a ransacked package. Oh, the splendor of the costumes worn. Eleanor Klinsick and Doris Shortt came with woolen stockings over their regular hose. Eleanor Schmardebeck, Doris Rokicki, and Emma Berdue ap- peared wearing those woolen checkered mittens fthat cause us to blinkj to keep their precious little fingers warm. Among the boys woolen blue and white stocking caps were lhe favorite form of head wear. William Loerke and Jack Ewers proudly displayed theirs with delight. Martha Murzynski strolled among the group wrapped upi' in an apron much too large for her. Convention Reported To create an appetite, Mildred King busied herself with hacking away at a tough piece of tree about two feet in diameter. Oscar Swaya apparently went to the dogs as he spent most of his time with Dr. Ersig's 10 setters. Before the reports of the Conven- tion at Columbus were recited, Mrs. Ersig served mineral water to the group. Lula Bella Holbrook claimed she had discovered minerals in the bottom of the cup. Aaron Novick looked decidely down- hearted as the reports on the conven- tion commenced. Perhaps it was be- cause his attempt at imitating Major Bowes had proved a failure. tHe was Gonged by the audience.J STAFF ENJJOYS C A newspaper is an institution devel- oped by modern society to present news of the day, to foster industry and com- merce, and to furnish a check on gov- ernment, defined Major Norman Imrie, associate editor of the Columbus Dis- patch at the opening session of the con- vention of the Journalism Association of Ohio schools attended by Tattler staff members in Columbus, last Friday and Saturday. Continuing in his whimsical fashion Major Imrie quoted Theodore Roose- velt's advice Do the best you can with what you got where you arel' as a good slogan for anyone to follow. Demonstrations in problems of pub- lication followed. That evening, over 500 students attended the banquet and ONVENTION '1i1'iiP dance in the Neil House, convention headquarters. That friendship played an important part in a reporteris life was self-evident in Jack Raper's remarks before the din- ers at the banquet. That evening Mr. Raper, editorial writer for the Cleveland Press related instances of scooping the news through friendships. At one of the round-table discussions held on Saturday morning in the Com- merce Building on the campus of the Ohio State, the Woodward Tattler was commended for its work in printing the paper each week. 1 As guests of Ohio State University, the visitors witnessed the Ohio State- Chicago game. STUDENTS WARNED or BEWITCHED DAY Black Cats And Other Signs May Cause Trouble Friday 13 Was that a black cat? No, it was only the shadow of a freshmen flitting by. Perhaps you wonder why I'm so concerned about black cats. You'll be a little more cautious, too when I tell you that today is Friday. And a very special Friday, too. Prepare to shudder, my dear reader. Today is Friday 13. So beware. lf you don't want to sufferi' with broken mirrors, girls, leave your mirrors home. They'll be safe unless Baby Brudder likes the shine of the looking glass. If this happens just forget you ever owned the darned thing. , A few other tips you might use. Don't walk under ladders unless you have a rabbit's foot in your pocket, a string around yonr finger, your shoes on backwards, and your hair in curlers. On second thought, maybe it'd be safer .to walk around. Go through the entire day without tell- ing a fib. Be different, and besides, no- body'll believe you anyhow. Don 't forget to do all your homework in seven minute periods. fSeven,s lucky I hear.J If you step on someone's left foot, go right ahead and step on his right one, too. CJust to balance things.J What's that? Another shadow. lOn my left foot.j I canit let him balance things. It's not natural for freshies. G'bye now and may all your black cats have little ones.

I BOOKS REVIEWED AT TOWN HALL Entertainment should not be our motive of reading. Reading should bea I definite and joyous occupationf' stressed Edward Weeks, editor of the Atlantic Monthlyf' during his lecture on 'lThe Importance of New Books, before Town Hall, Saturday, November 14. In my opinionj, stated Mr. Weeks, The most amusing book of the year is Around the World in Eleven Years by Patience, Richard and John Abbe.

Agnes Repplier, authoress of the book, 'K Pursuit of Laughter, is revealed by Mr. Weeks as one of the leading scribes in the field of women writers in the United States today. This year's best seller, Gone With the Wind by Margaret Mitchell, contains several lengthy descriptive passages not directly related to the story, criticized Mr. Weeks. The characters in the book are not portrayed as real human beings but are caricatures. There are several points to the books favor, admitted Mr. Weeks. The scenes are masterfully drawn and mega life is worked out I Violet Sheckler Chills and thrills are numerous in the newest Little Theater Guild pro- d ' um ,, uction, lhree Taps at Twelve, a mys- tery melodrama, to be presented during conference hour the first week of De- cember.

Rosalie Make Your Own STHE Thanksgiving season approaches, there 1S a tendency for many of us to point to our various grievances and hardships with bitter- ness and shout the age old cry, What have we to be thankful forf' Our lives are like modeling clay put into our hands to pattern as we see fit. If we allow clay to become brittle, from the lack of water, it breaks up and scatters. The same would apply to our lives. If we allow them to become too bitter, never keep- ing them flexible with happiness, we'll soon wake upto find that we have no occasion for Thanks- giving. Happiness and Thanksgiving are where we look for them. If we go through life exulting in our few but substantial joys, never overshadowing them by the trying moments that must come to all, we will find in our lives a real Thanksgiving.

We, the students who attended this conference wish to thank each and every reader of our paper for his help. Truth Will Out S ALWAYS in any emergency there are those who lose control of their senses and those Who have presence of mind enough to keep calm. Last Fridayis fire alarm brought out both of these Characteristics. When the movie film caught fire, most of the students in the auditorium, torn between the desire to witness the excitement and the danger of re- maining still, created an unusual disturbance. It seems that these people who screamed and became unnecessarily frightened could have controlled themselves in a more orderly way. Loretta Igna- towski is to be commended on her sense in turning in the alarm. It is for just such occasions that our fire drills are featured. Let's do better next time.

ALLERS DRUB MAUMEE GRIDDERS Polar Bears Roll Up 45 Points Against Suburban Eleven With every member of the team see- ing action, the Woodward Polar Bears trounced a Maumee eleven 45-0 before a small crowd of spectators at Central field last Saturday. It was the first vic- tory of the season and the first time the Polar Bears had crossed their oppo- nents goal line. F launting a highly drilled passing at- tack, Coach Art Smith's proteges bewil- dered the up-river lads with passes, drove holes through their line, and skirted their ends for long gains. They were even able to work the antiquated statue of liberty play with our stellar end Johnny Ford running 28 yards for the score. Early in the first quarter, the Polar Bears scored their first touchdown when Banasiak plunged from about the three after some brilliant ball carrying by Golembiewski. In the middle of the second quarter Tony Anello scored with Sczelagowski converting. A few minutes later Banasiak again plunged for score but the point was missed. The half ended with no further scoring. Wood- ward 19, Maumee 0. Later in the third quarter after a fair- ly even battle, the Bears began their passing attack with the climax coming when the Anello to Ford statue of liber- ty play was completed. Putting their aerial attack into effect again in the fourth quarter with Jimmy Morel, former Maumee captain and quarterback, on the throwing end and Nowak on the business end. The com- bination clicked placing the ball on the three from where Hoskins plunged. A few minutes later Golembiewski inter- cepted a Maumee forward and sprinted 40 yards for the counter. Anello conver- ted. In the last few minutes of play the passing attack again clicked when a Golembiewski to Anello pass was complete for the final touchdown with Hoskins converting. At the final shot the score stood 45-0. Boys who saw action for the first time were, Wasikowski, Lawson, Nov- ick, Wolfinger, Morel, and Brubaker. Freshman Cubs Champs In Field Ball Tournament Championship for the girls' intramu- ral field ball tournament was won by the Freshman Cubs, managed by Betty Jane Roth and captained by Jeanna Bronson. Other players on the winning team are Anna Brona, Jean Douglas, Betty Mayer, Virginia Komorowski, Angela Nicholas, Marlyn Renz, Angeline Rec- chia, Matilda Rifkin, Allan Schnieder, Virginia Terry, Vivian Vincent, and Doris Piland. The winning soccer team has not yet been determined, but will be announced as soon as it is definite. After Thanksgiving, all intramural teams will begin the volley ball tourna- ment. Football Team Introduced At Last Grid Pep Meeting The Quill and Dagger Literary soc- iety presented the last pep-meeting of the football season for the Central game today conference hour in the auditor- ium.

Nick Verano accompanied the above students on piano and played a solo. The committee in charge of the en- tertainment consisted of Eugene Had- dad, chairman, assisted by William Loerke, Oscar Swaya, Nick Verano and George Spaulding. cMurra is adviser of the BEA S ENCOI' Coaches Comment On Basketball Team For a coach to predict that his team will finish on top, after losing all but two of last year's championship team would be cutting his own throat. I do believe, however, that we will have a team, made up mostly of last year's championship reserve team, that will give a very good account of itself. Homer Hanham, Coach of Varsity. t O I Woodward Hi has always had a good basketball team, and I look forward to seeing it coutinue this record. The loss of practically the whole team by grad- uation will impair their chances, but we can look for a Hghting team that will never stop fighting, although matched against the more experienced boys from Waite, Scott, and DeVilbiss. We look for them to win more than half of their gain s, and that is a lot when we take in to account that not one regular varsity man is back this year. Dave McMurray, Coach of Reserves ' 0 U I This question is very difficult to an' swer with the loss of twelve men from last yearls varsity squad, I think our club at Woodward will have to step to finish ahead of DeVilbiss and Waite who I think have the best cage squads in the city this year. However, knowing the fine play of teams here at Woodward, I will say that the Bears will make both DeVilbiss and Waite step to win any ball games from them this winter. I hope ourPolar Bear can duplicate last season's performance Dave Weisberg, Coach of Freshmen BEAR-FACT. ,u,,,,. if - - , i Barney Banasiak, Woodward's line bucking powerhouse, recently under- went a minor operation. He was able to play in the Maumee tilt although he had been pessimistic about playing in this game. The Maumee game was the first for J oe Barbara, peppery center, since he was injured in the Waite game. Tony Anello, diminutive halfback leads Woodward's scoring with 13 points. Barney Banasiak's duo of touch- downs places him sec ond while Chuck Hoskins with seven points is third. Johnny Szelagowski and John Ford are tied with a single tally. Teddy Szelagow- ski kicked a point after a touchdown in the Maumee game to be the only other Bear scorer. - Would-Be Webster If Noah Webster were still alive, weire positive he'd pat Richard Schu- maker on the back for that new word he originated in public speaking class the other day.

Central is the first opponent to face the Bears when they clash cn the field of the Irish Saturday afternoon, November 21. This battle is annually a tight game with neither team giving or asking quarter and, with the added goal of gsole possession of the cellar post for the Ray Olczak Awarded Last Ducat For Score Guessing The winner of the ticket for the final city football game with Central Hi was Ray Olczak who handed in the nearest score of 48-0. Because the final game ofthe year with Van Wert is being played there, there will be no more score guessing until the opening of the basketball season. Woodward Pupils To Usher At Wayne U.

Woodshop Thanked By Soph Girls For Planing Furniture Miss Grace Cronk, composer of many important documents including the famous See Me letters, brought the following note before a meeting of girls in 305: The girls of 305 wish to thank 'The Sawdust and Shaving Departrnentl presided over by Mr. Crouse, for mak- ing life a little smoother for them by planing and sandpapering furniture that was running up hosiery and sweater bills, due to numerous snags and sliversf' After a series of debates and confer- ences, the note was passed by a unani- mous vote and sent to Mr. Crouse who cerem-oniously dispatched this answer: Thanks! O. K., I'll be up sometimes. Dope Corner Carefully studying one of the tough- est assignments in pre-game forecast- ing we find the decidedly improved Polar Bear squad seeking out a victory over Central in the battle to keep out of the cellar position next Saturday. Considering Turkey Day encounters, we see a hard fought contest between Waite and Scott with Scott coming out victor and city champions. In the Lib- bey-DeVilbiss clash, we see another hard fought contest with Libbey toppling the Tigers. Van Wert, midwest league champs, play host to Woodward and find the Polar Bears a tough customer. This .n nn rloiviainh lwnffln loser, this should test the mettle of both teams. - The Centralites are favored, but the confidence the Polar Bears gained from their victory over the Maumee team should put them in a good position to topple the winless Irish. Central, having yet to win a game and the Woodward tilt being the last on the schedule for the Irish, may be in either of two frames of mind. On one hand being resigned to a season with- out a victory, or on the other being de- termined to end the victory famine in their last game. This game should find the Bears at top physical strength, with Barney Ba- nasiak fully recovered from a minor op- eration and Joe Barbara's knee func- tioning at its best again. The following is the probable lineup for the clash with Central tomorrow: Woodward Pos. Central Ford L. E Donaldson Greenwood L. T. Thomas Stoykoff L. G. Brannan arbara C. Lennex Parker R. G. Aubrey Wim-howski R. T. Wood Nowak R. E. Lyskawa Golembiewski Q. B. Saco Pelczarski L. H. Meng Szelagowski R. H. Komenda Banasiak F. B. Reams Wert Game On the following Thursday Woodward Van will engage in the first Thanksgiving Day Battle played by its eleven since the ceasing of the tussles with Libbey on this date. . The Scarlet and gray of Van Wert high school and Blue and White of Woodward will line up at the opposite points of the ball on the greensward of the Cougar's gridiron in the first clash between these squads. The Cougars have an impressive re- cord to date with six victories compared with one deadlock and one defeat. This team also reigns over the Mid-West League for the second consecutive year. Compared to the Bear team Van Wert is a team of veterans with twelve players on the squad who played last year. Of this group six played enough time to win letters. 1 The following is the Van Wert lineup with a lo ical second string Woodward lineup wqiich might replace the 'drst team. Woodward Pos.

J ULIETTE SEAR HAS SEEN MANY STATES .li- Senior Girl Enjoys Southern Hospitalityg Likes Capital It would seem that Juliette Sear's favorite pastime is traveling. Having covered practically all of her home state, Michigan, and points east, she is qualified to give an authorized opinion on nearly half of our forty-eight states. After returning from a two-weeks motoring tour of New England and the coast, she stated, I intend to see America first and learn all I can about my own country. , One of her greatest thrills was arriv- ing in Washington, D. C., at 3 A. M. and watching Washington's and Lincoln's monuments send refiecting messages back and fourth on the rippling surfaces of the pool which separates them. The best part of the trip, according to Juliette, was experienced when she was subjected to some of the good old Southern hospitality. Wllhe hotels in the South, she remarked, are named for Confederate generals, and the elderly men who run them make one wonder whether or not these old generals still exist. Eating Southern fried chicken and yams, being called honey by all, she left the southern states with regret. Upon being asked of the industry of cities she passed through, Juliette em- phatically replied, Boston traffic---ouch! Just like the Boston massacre, and no tea party?

Suddenly a young chap, Alex Rapp by name, former Wood- ward student, rushed up the aisle, pre- sented his stub to the ticket, claimed the Plymouth and left being one car richer than before.

Peiuoer JINX DAY SUPPLIES MISFORTUNE HERE Tattler-'s Forecast Of Bad Luck Comes True At Movie Blaze Did you have any bad luck on Friday the thirteenth? If you are an activities ticket holder, you most certainly did. First and foremost, Woodward stu- dents experienced their f1rst reel', fire. However, there were a large number of disappointed Woodwardites. Not be- cause the accident wasn't serious but because the 'ileave of absence from fourth hour classes was withdrawn. The following student council mem- bers aided in averting a serious calami- ty: Raymond Sheline, Loretta Ignatow- ski, and Mildred DePew. Others who showed quick thinking were Jerome J a- niszewski, Earl Curtis, and Eugene Bo- gart. The Film Way down East' was not shown. Vggqlgerhaps the rising sun way down East had something to do with the mishap. Or maybe a terrific love scene was the cause of the torrid incident. Who knows? Machine Shop Beats Stars For Football Championship Shutting out the American League champs, the all stars, 18-0 in pass and tap football last Tuesday night, the National League machine shop team took the intra-mural championship. Thus far in volley ball, the American League has played three times, and the National League but twice. Literary Society Has Display Of Books During Book Week During this last week which was Na- tional Book Week, the Zetalethean Literary society has had a display of fifteen books in the case on the second Hoor. These books were presented to the school library last spring. The faculty, members of the Zetale- theans, and any senior student may use them. Heading the committee in charge was Martha Murzynski with Viola Payak and Emma Berdue assisting. Tennis Fans Gonged Whiz! Bang! Something missed my ear by a fraction of an inch. I tried to follow the white object with my eyes but my eyes crossed, recrossed, and uncrossed every time it went by. At last it fell, and dog-gone, it was only a tennis ball being swatted hither and yon by Beatrice and Bernice Landwehr. The business of enjoying themselves in the third fioor hall fimaginell was only interrupted twice, once by a teacher tripping daintily and the second time by the gong---pardon, I mean the bell. Instructor Is Guest Miss Stella Cornwell, girls, gym instructor at Woobward, was guest speaker at the DeVilbiss Girls, Athletic Association meeting last Monday. She spoke on modern dancing while pictures were being shawn. 'rouse LIT. SOCIETY TO SPONSOR DANCE L. J.

Remember last year? We had a two day vacation. They say light- ning never stricks twice in the same place, but this isn't lightning. It's a real honest-to-goodness vacation. So next Thursday and Friday you can catch up on your shut eye by sleeping till noon. Because of the short week, there will be no Tattler out untill December 4, the following week. - Grodi's, Hanham's Classes Go To Museum Next Week The homeroom classes of Miss Doro- thy Kellogg and Mrs.Marie Ersig made their tour of the Art Museum last Tues- day, November 17.

'Wilson, Lenin To G0 Down In Hist0ry' Ludwig The only men who make history are those whose work heeds neither bound- aries nor racej, declared Emil Ludwig, foremost living biographer, in his ad- dress, Living Makers of History, be- fore the Saturday Night Open Forum, November 14. . These men must deliver their people, not conquer them, as the present day dictators have done. Ghandi, Pilsudski, and deValera are a few examples of contemporary men who have delivered their peoplef' continued the author of Napoleon Woodrow Wilson's attempt to erase international strife through the League . . . 4- 1 names in future history books accord- ing to Mr. Ludwig. uThe creative rather than reproduc- tive individual makes history. Charley Chaplin, throuh the creation of a new character symbolic of modern condi- tions, will be longer remembered than all the World War generals. Inventors, doctors. and biologists, whose creative ideas rise above race and national boundaries, are making history. The student of 300 years hence will not trifie with studies of only na- tional leaders such as Mussolini and Hitler, they will remember in our gen- eration only such persons as Lindbergh, Edison, Marconi, and Burbank. no ,:,...,.,. has nnvnv- lnnlnnrrnrl fn nnn DUGDAL TO HON ER SOCIETY Seniors To Be Inductedg Roll Of Honor Students To Be Read Speaking at the Induction ceremo- nies of the Woodward Chapter of the National Honor society Monday, No- vember 23, in the auditorium will be Ralph Dugdale, superintendent of schools.

Barley On Thanksgiving Another young lady gone! Another unattached smiling worker snatched from the ranks of Woodward's ofhce girls! Yes, our own Miss Opal Drennan has succumbed to the lure of pots and pans to become Mrs. B. R. Barley. The great event took place on Thanks- giving Day. So next time you wander into the office and come face to face with a dreamy look think nothing of it. It's love in bloom, and may they live happily ever after!

This blank is absolutely conndential and has been published to help stu- dents solve some of their problems. It is divided into two parts. The first part will stay in school guidance office, and the second part will be sent to Ohio State University to be placed with blanks from all the high schools. Then a special study will be made of all high school seniors. The project is under the direction of Dr. H. A. Toops, pro- fessor of education at Ohio State Uni- versity. All seniors at Woodward will fill out these blanks first hour Wednesday, De- cember 9, in the cafeteria. E. L. Clark, guidance director and adviser of the Honor society, is in charge. After the Christmas holidays, Mr. Clark is going to work out a program of college guidance. Seniors who expect to go to college will fill -out special blanks and have a conference with him. This program is a follow up of the one which was started in the eighth grade to adjust students to high school. ..,i.. l Junior Red Cross To Present Radio Program Next Monday The Junior Red Cross will present a program in the auditorium, Monday, December 14, during third hour.

AMUSED STUDENTS ' LIKE DRIVING TEST History Class Observes Pupil Vigorously Cranking Automobile Disturbing the steady, quiet routine of Miss Louise Tippett's eighth hour history class was a muflied laugh from an unambitious historian straining his neck to look out the window. It was but a matter of a few minutes when the room rang with hilarious laughter-- Miss Tippett tried unsuccessfully to express her avid delight--for outside a trembling Woodwardite in the company of a robust patrolman was taking his test to obtain a driving license. The confident appearing boy had es- corted his one man jury to the family means of transportation, which he someday hoped to call his own, and after beth were seated, proceeded to start the car. Much to his dismay, how- ever, the car refused to stir. Reluctantly the boy whose spirits were steadily decreasing, got out to crank the stubborn lizzy. Again he start- ed to set it rolling---But still to no avail He glanced fearfully at the oiiicer by his side and found him trying hard tr hide his keen enjoyment. Losing his serene manner, the boy bounced out and cranked the Ford with the vigor of Hercules--Here the jolly policeman burst into loud boister- ous, chuckle--At last the car chugged, and the extremely humiliated Wood- wardite, grinning embarrassingly, drove away. The history class ceased their giggles-- And through all that for a scrap of paper, sighed one student lwith refer- ence to the German attitude toward England's entrance into the World War. J The examination, given by four city patrolmen, consisted of tests on road signs, trafhc laws, and a test to deter- mine whether or not the student is color blind. They also accompany stu- dents on a short drive to observe them in action. Art Klan Members Will Tour Toledo Art Museum Monday To view the paintings of the Cezanne' Gauguin exhibition, the Art Klan mem- bers will tour the Art Museum at 8:30 Monday, December 7. The pictures of the painters, who are known for their infiuence on the whole modern art movement, had been lent by leading museums and outstanding col- lectors of the country. Miss June Anderson advises the Art Klan. World Peace Foreseen Ed.'s Note: These are reports of Town Hall Lectures by Dorothy Schilling and Loretta Ignatowski, Woodward stu- dents. There is danger of war in Europe from Germany, but after about eighteen months, it is believed, Germany will begin to decline, stated Andre Geraud during his lecture on Can European Peace be Saved? before Town Hall, Saturday, November 28. He went to say that Hitler will not be so powerful, that he will promise peace with neighboring countries on one condition, that they do not make alliances or plans with other nations or among themselves. According to Mr. Geraud, the League of Nations has not been successful. What do the foreign countries ex- pect of America in case of war? It is generally recognized that America By Town Hall Lecturer It's a shocking thing but about 100- 000 young men and women go to Man- hattan Island each year to become art- ists, stated youthful Irving Stone, author of Lust for Life, at the second lecture of the Town Hall series Satur- day, November 21. Mr.Stone announced that the people are living in a great muddle, and it is the duty and function of the artist to portray the truth so as to illuminate the world for them. Vincent Van Gogh slashed through the veils that ob- structed other people from seeing the real thing and showed them what was beneath the surface by his wonderful paintings. Although people say Van Gogh was insane, I chiefly wrote the book Lust for Life to dispell that idea. He entered the insane asylum thinking it was a hospital wheriihemcould rest JUNIORS WILL HOLD KID PARTY TONIGHT Class Deans To Chaperone Affair, Senior Boys To Be Guards Final arrangements for the Junior Kid Party to be held Friday evening in the girls' gym have been completed by Lula Belle Holbrook, chairman of the social committee.

Victor Sankovitch has charge of the music which is to be furnished between games. The admission price is ten cents. Juniors, only, will be admitted to the party. Ralph Dugdale Emphasizes U Studies To Honor Society Scholarship should be given its place in the school as much as athletics and extracurricular activities, stated Ralph Dugdale, superintendent of schools, when he spoke before the NationalHon- or society third hour, Monday, Novem- ber 23. He remarked that many students are willing to accept a C when they could get an A witn a little more effort. Devel- oping right habits of thinking and finish- ing whatever we undertake is part of the training which will help us to suc- ceed. If you receive high marks it doesn't necessarily mean that you will succeed, he said. Success is determined by your popularity, leadership, and ability to get along with other people. We can't all be leaders, but we can be good citizens.' 'Teachersikct A Chaperons i At Afternoon Dancing Class All faculty members that are not in' cluded in the extra-curricular activities will be the chaperones for the after- school dancing classesfor at least one lesson during the course.

Ethel Crane I OODWARD has lost a good citizen, an honor student, and a well-loved, congenial young lady. Her late presidency of the Spanish club, membership in the Zetalethean Literary society, and position on the Tattler staff attest both to her copius capacity for work, and to the high esteem with which she was regarded. ln-behalf of the stu- dent body and Ethel Crane's many friends, the Tat- tler wishes to extend deepest sympathy to her family. Towards World Peace URING recent years, correspondence between students in different countries has been in- creasing. Through the work of certain inter- national and various local bureaus, it is possible for pupils to exchange letters with students throughout the world. The similarity in human ideals was made clear in a letter received from France by a Woodward stu- dent. The young Frenchman could not understand the horrible war in Spain, and furthermore, he added, that they are fighting amongst each other, not with foreigners. Through the means of this correspondence among the rising generations, further holocausts can be prevented. For if the various peoples understand each other well, they will not easily be induenced by propaganda to engage in the cruel, wholesale, scientific butchering, labeled war. Different Names N ORDER to make possible a more even distri- bution of names used on the editorial page of this paper, a filing system has been introduced. Each time a pupil's name is used in afeature, the date is recorded on his own individual card. We hope by this method to reduce the number of complaints such as, John Brown's name has been in almost every issue of the Tattler, and nobody ever reads about me! At the present time, the copyreading department is supervising this work which will continue through- out the entire year.

LaRue ,Q After reading Gone 'With the Wind, A A ' - one is led to speculate upon what would be W the present status of the South had there A -' .. 2 been no war. We are, of course, sure that l . the horrible loss of life, the starvation and . of property would have been avoided. The ' ft average Southerner will always attribute fallen fortune and the extinction of great names to The War. Is it always justified? Not far from Bellefontaine, the county seat of Logan County, stands a huge stone mansion. In its lines, material, and arrangement it is a duplicate of a castle on the Rhine. Ever since its construction it has been the most famous landmark in all the surrounding country. Its setting is a hillside overlooking the beau- tiful valley of the Mac-o-chee River whose praises have been sung not only by local writers but those of other countries as well. Here in a bed-room overlook- ing a bright morning autumnal harvest scene, James Whitcomb Riley is said to have composed When the Frost is on the Pumpkin. This magnificent estate was the home of a wealthy Civil War officer. After the war he was sent as a member of the diplomatic legation to France. Later he took part in local politics and represented his county in the State Legislature. Wherever he went he was respected and honored. To- day when you visit the Castle you will be charged a small sum of money to be shown through the spa- cious rooms. It is in the hands of strangers. The huge fortune has been dissipated, the family scattered or dead. The ruin here is complete, so far as family disinte- gration is concerned, as that of any recounted in the above story. The old saying F rom shirt sleeves to shirt sleeves in four generations is in the main true. War merely speeds the evolution. - Have You Seen Max Davis' smile? Chester Zytkus' mammoth lead pencil?

Then finally somebody gets the bright idea of kicking it to get it nearer one end of the field. What I can't understand though, is why they always get mixed up in their directions. One time they kick the ball to one end of the field and the next time they kick it to the other end. Oh, well, I never was good at figuring things out. There are quite a lot of puzzling things about this game. One man who looks like an ex-convict keeps running back and forth and blows a whistle every now and then. And then there's another guy who must think he's a cowboy or a bank robber or something because sever- al times during the game he shoots a gun and gets everybody excited. Finally when somebody gets down one end of the field they decide to quit Hghting there and start all over again at the middle. Well, they say that what you don't know won't hurt you so I'll just cross my fingers and hope that nobody asks my opin- ion about football so I won't have to show my igno- rance.

Reagimg the Sky, Stick 'em up, commanded a short, dark man with a grey hat pulled low over his eyes. These words were backed up by a huge .38 blue steel automatic which was enough to persuade a dozen druggists to obey the man's orders. Since this was my first view of the business end of a gun, I didn't hesitate to obey. With the appearance of the gun a funny cold feeling took possession of the pit of my stomach. Immediately all of the words of wisdom imparted by the store manager dashed through my mind. Donlt argue with them, they're the bossi' fDon't worry, I didn,t.J Do everything they ask. Their gun means business. We would rather lose all of the money in the store then read your name in the obituary. After the excitement was all over, I realized for once I had done as directed.

Kidetiquette Kiddies everywhere, who are going to the kid party tonight, must brush up on their etiquette, so here are your rules, boysies and girlsies: 1. Be sure to hide every bit of your lollypop com- pletely in that gaping hole in your face. I If you don't, somebody will take it from you.j 2. Play Tarzan on the decorations and leave nothing in its original place. 3. Trample on your playmates toes, pull her hair, and make her squall for mamma 4. When exhausted from playing, curl up in any chaperon's lap and sleep, until refreshed or thrown off. 5. Eat your neighborls refreshments when he isn't looking. 6.

A sleeper pass on the first play of the second half was intercepted by the Cougars who went to the four yard stripe. From this point it took them zhree downs to score and a flat pass was good for the extra point.

Why, does there have to be home- work over the holidays or to go one better, why does there have to be home- work? Why, does your pencil break just when you're taking a test? Why, do the folks at home have ice cream the night you eat out? Why, is there never any ink in your pen when you want to use it? Why, do you always run into a big dog on a dark night?

Those students who have studied will be pleased and gra- tified at this news. Others will probably mope about the halls with ifs and buts', on the tips of there tongues. It is to the latter we direct our words. 'Three school weeks remain before exams are given. In those three weeks anything can happen. Surprise your instructors with some well-prepared assignments. A good number of teachers give good grades if they see their pupils trying. In short, work! ' N Another Season OODWRAD'S basketball team will open its season when the squad meets Blissfield tonight. Last year's quintet set a dazzling record as they won the city and district championships. But only two boys of that crack team are left to build a new squad. In view of the fact that members of last year's championship reserve squad will be on the varsity, good results can be expected. With the capable coaching and student support of last season, the team could meet only with success. A Seasonal Thought T IS not only at Thanksgiving and Christmas that needy families are really in need,but these seem the only times that most organizations remember them. The Woodward chapter of the Junior Red Cross, contrary to this idea, is making possible a project good the whole year. With the proceeds from next Monday's program, they will purchase materials for making clothing, quilts, and other home necessities. A Would it be possible for our other clubs to fol- low the Red Cross' example by not only helping during the holiday season but at various times throughout the year?

At present there are 29 trophies displayed in the casefwhich now has a background of discarded lockers and W.P.A. lad- ders.J Of the trophies shown, l6 were awarded for bas- ketball, which is not surprising since Woodward has always predominated in this sport. Of the other thirteen trophies, three were presented for wins in golf, two for tennis superiority, and two for track merit. Standing boldly in the fore part of the case is a Boost Woodward trophy. Also there is a Spalding trophy and a Tech-Antics award which was won by the Spanish club. Close to these is a cup won in the News-Bee foul shooting contest. The scholastic awards consist of the Michigan Plaque and the Commercial Scholarship Plaque. Our trophy case, though well-filled, still contains space for several more trophies. Let's fill it up!

Woodward has come through with overwhelming victor- ies in its last two games winning by 46 to 14 and 59 to 12 scores. Due to lack of experience, the Bears may find it hard to repeat these victories. Blissfield, for the first time, will also bring its reserve team. Following this game, Woodward will journey next Friday to Van Wert and on the following evening to Lima Central. Both of these schools have produced strong teams in the ' f past and will furnish plenty of competition. The probable lineup will be: Sylvester Jaswiecki, former forwards, Al Greenwood, former lightweight, and James Mor- el, Maumee star last year, guards, Walter Bojanowski, last If -J , I I 1 'FQ W X lightweight player, and Bob Robens, formerly of St. Johns, es year's varsity,center. Athletic Board To Publish Sports Program For Pupils Basketball programs will be sold to Woodward students either before the Scott game, to be played January 19, or the Waite game, on the 22nd of the same month. The profits derived from sales will go to the Woodward Athletic Asso- ciation and the welfare fund. . It has not been definitely decided which game it will be as it is not known when the gym project will be completed. The program will include, of course, the line-up of each school and a short resume of the rivalry between the two schools. . The Peiuper club is in charge of pub- lishing the programs. Dave Weisberg is adviser of the club. Intra-murals Cancelled Due to the construction of the new gym, boys' intra-murals will be discon. tinued until after Christmas vacation.

STARTS THIRD YEAR Hopes To Be Varsity Center On Basketball Team For '36, '37 To be regular center on Woodward's basketball squad is my one ambition right now, stated Walter Bojanowski, when recently interviewed. Walter, known as Boj to his many friends, now a senior, is completing three years of varsity basketball. He is expected to use his 6 feet 3 inches to great advantage on the court this season in upholding coach Homer Hanham's fine record of last year's championship team. When questioned about this year's team, he convincingly remarked that Woodward would give a good account of itself in all games scheduled as the team had a fine coach. I am also interested in baseball, foot- ball, and many other sports, assured Walter. Recently taking up bowling, he had what might be called beginners luck by hitting 210 in his third game. As an ac- tive member of the Q. D.'s, Walter Bojanowski is one of Woodward's out- standing students.

Morley Helped King, McPhail Lectures On Canada Probably all that King Edward knows of the traditional and historical relations of the British parliament, he got out of my notes, stated Christo- pher Morley, America's most beloved litterateur at the Saturday Night Open Forum last week. ' In his topic, The Lady and the Tiger, the author related his first meeting with the king, then Prince of Wales, a youth of 18. Mr. Morley was a senior at Oxford university at the time the prince enter- ed as a freshman. Inexperienced in taking notes on the lectures on British constitutional history, Edward always borrowed the author's notes to verify his own. In prophecy of the present problem affecting the British empire, the speak- er said he believed that King Edward will marry Mrs. W. Simpson. A vote of the audience revealed that the major- feel cheered and sustainedf, stated Agnes McPhail during her lecture on Relationships of Canada, The United States, and The British Empire. She told of the great interest the Canadian people have in the affairs of the Americans. They follow our elec- tions, papers, and broadcasts with great enthusiam. Miss McPhail expressed her desire that the American as a Whole would re- cognize Canadais independence of Eng- land. The speaker also announced her regret that Canada was not included in the peace conference of the Western hemisphere, at Buenos Aires. The people of the United States need a course in the elementary geography of Canada. The American knows nothing of Canada, while the Canadian child must know the geography ofthe United States before he becomes a seventh grader, the speaker continued.

In this corner William Anspach Verne Kramer, Frank Tomczak, and Leonard Grochowski make nice Howers for the wall, but they don't stay in one place long. Kenneth Walker seems to be monop- olizing Ruth Becker so corcpletely that the certain girl he used to sit with in the southwest corner is rather left out. Billie Craig, Edith Bolton, and Betty Leon stand by in an awstricken stage while Edwin Zarn does that intriguing left ear slide and spin for their benefit. Nobody likes tattle-tales, so perhaps an exit now will save this Snooper from being mashed into a delectable pulp by the group of swingers whose secrets have been disclosed. Public Speaking Class Holds Debate On City Water Supply Arrangement and presentation of de- bates is the project now 'occupying the public speaking class. Last week's sub- ject was capital punishment, next week's, Toledo's water supply. The students have not spoken before an audience yet, as time is being spent on getting used to the auditorium. After Christmas vacation, groups of selected clubs will be invited to hear the debates. 'Good Fellow' Organization Gives To Woodward Needy Have you ever heard of the Goob Fellows ? No? Well, the welfare depart- ment of Woodwarb has. Last Wednesday a representative of the group came to school with clothing to be distributed among needy students. Whitout waiting to be thanked and before anyone was able to ask him a few questions about the organization, the benefacter left the building. This incident is an example of what 'igiving with a spirit really is like.

Dance Committees Choose Ballroom For Class Dances In selecting the ballrooms for the annual Senior Prom and J-Hop, the committees of both classes have chosen the Richardson Building. The Senior Prom will be held Satur- day, April 3g and the J-Hop, Saturday, February 6. After Christmas vacation, petition for the J-Hop will be circulated by members of the committee. . Max Davis and Viola Payak gre chair- ri Take Your Choice With the holiday season approach- ing, many Woodward Students will find opportunities to work. Most likely many of these jobs will interfere with school work. Of course, the argument offered is that money is greatly needed by many families. Nevertheless, school work can also be valued in dollars and cents. In view of these facts,the student-employee should consider carefully the proper course to follow. ,,i.i...-it Bears Beat Lima Central, Lose To Van Wert Cagers Woodward's varsity cagers divided the two games of their trip, winning one and dropping the other.

The school through the Tattler wishes to extend its sympathy to Ruth Malikowski and family upon the death of her father. How Lucky We Are AR across miles of ocean, young boys who hardly know the meaning of Christmas are marching-- marching toward inevitable destruction. , Perhaps we donit fully realize how much more en- joyable freedom makes Chistmasg without it we should have no celebration, no smiling childrenis faces, and no spirit of giving. Imagine a country such as ours devoid of gay mistletoe and holly, and filled only with bombs and wrecked buildings. We sincerely hope that this hor- rible sight will never materialize, and know that it will not. So let us enjoy this season with this thought uppermost in our mindsg Peace on earth, good will toward menli' Watch The Times OMENTOUS and unparalleled events have occured in the world at large this past year. We have seen three kings occupy the British throne in one year, something few people see in a lifetime. Europe has at several times tottered on the precipice of warg Germany, Russia, and Italy are up to their necks in the present Spanish war. President Roosevelt proposed and attended the Buenos Aires Peace Conference, one ofthe greatest, if not the greatest, of its kind. Twenty years hence our sons and daughters will complain about how tough the history for the year 1936 was. Letls read the papers and listen to news commentators now. Maybe we can help our poster- ity and accidentally get a good grade in history now. The Wrong Kind HRCUGH the assistance ofmodern science and the foresight of present day educators, it is now possible for students to have movies in their schools. There are many types of films that can be shown. At l1Voodward, although there have been educa- tional movies, in the main, the flickers have been in a lighter vein. The News-Bee should be highly commended for helping to bring Dickens' two clas- sics here. There are theaters of all kinds to furnish the entertainment picture. As pupils are interested in Woodward only for educational and cultural advanc- es, why cantt there be a marked transition from the light movie to the thought-provoking educational picture. Not since the days of 1929 has our city shown such evidence of the cheerful spirit -fix of the Christmas season. Employment has increased. Banks closed since 1932 have '- paid substantial dividends. Factories and , I stores have rewarded the faithful service , Q I, of their employees with generous bonuses. - ' Even the citizens not on the regular em- ployment rolls are being cared for by the or national governments. And while we do not like to think that Christmas depends entirely on financial prosperity, in our modern way of living money is essential to carry out our ideas and desires for a Merry Christmas. Perhaps the most notable thing in the coming of Christ to the world is the thought that he came to insure Peace on Earth Goodwill to Men. Two thou- sand years ago hatred, strife, ignorance, predjudice, and superstition enveloped the world. Sometimes to- day it seems that we are not making satisfactory pro- gress along the road to universal peace. But we must rerviember that the mind of man is finite and our life span so short that we become impatient. We expect miracles contrary to our own knowledge of human nature. Peace cannot as a mantle envelop the earth in a day. Perpetual peace will come, not in our brief time, but in some distant day when our lives more nearly approximate the life of Him whose birth we are now celebrating. ' And so for the year of 1936 A Very Merry Christmas to everyone. city, state, ' Merry Christmas Mirthful Marion Anello Energetic Edmund Goscin Robust Rita Boes Radiant Ruth Yeager Youthful Yvonne Joseph Classy Clarence Heck Happy Helen Mackowitz Righteous Robert Robens Intelligent Irwin Dorf Studious Sam Laderman Tactful Tom Paulsen Maidenly Mildred Johnson Active Alice Frankowski Stalwart Shirley Superior Holy Night A star shone bright in the heavens so blue, And told of a story old, yet new. Shepherds tending their flocks one night Were filled with wonder at a wonderous sight Of angels whose voices did softly ring, Singing the praises of a new born king. Filled with awe and a desire to see Just who this new born king could be, The sheperds traveled to Bethlehem far Ever guided by a brilliant star. Heaped at the Christ Child's feet, behold Gifts of insense, myrrh, and gold. A halo shines round his small head Lying in a manger bed. Shepherds and wisemen worship the king, As Peace on Earth the angles sing. --Edith Bolton, '39. In Other Words As they say in France: Avec l'arrivee de la saison des fetes, la redaction du bureau du Tattler et les garcon dans Fimprimerie veul- ent donner aux eleves de l'ecole Superieure Woodward leurs meilleurs souhaits pour un Noel joyeux et une bonne et heureuse Annee. As Herr Hitler would express it: Die Schuler der Druokerei und der Redaction des Tattler wunschen allen Schulern und Schulerinnen von Woodward Froehliche Weihnacten und ein Gluec- kliches Neues Jahr. In native Poland: Z nadchodzacemi Swietami Bozego Narodzenia, my z Biura Tattler i chlopcy z Drukarni zyczymy uczniom z Woodward Wesolych Swiat Bozego Narodzenia i Szcesliwego Nowego Roku. In Sunny Spain: Al acercarse la fiesta de Las Pascuas, los miembros del Tattler y los estndiantes de la imprimeria extien- den a los estndiates de Woodward sus mejores deseos por buenas Pascuas y un buen y prospero ano nuevo.

Inquiring Reporter ' The question which our nosey reporter asked this week was How do you expect to spend the las eleven days of 1936? I am going to spend my vacation dancing as much as possible. Helen Mieczkowski, Junior. I should like to spend my vacation wherever my ilame, Virginia Wolfinger, spends hers. Robert Boice, Sophomore. I am planning to spend my vacation in Hunt- ington, West Virginia, where Santa Claus comes in an airplane because there is seldom any snow, ' Alice Shames, Senior. I am going to stay home and eat turkey. Grace Miller, Senior. I am going to do a lot of horseback riding and eating during my vacation. Evelyn Laytart, Senior. Truckin' It seems that the freshmen don't have the mo nopoly on dumbnessg juniors are chiseling. Trapsing down the hall during fifth hour lunch- not long ago, Nick Verrano and Frank Meyer, junior juniors, tugged after them a two-ton truck C in mini- ature J at the end of a string. The Machine was about two inches long and car- ried a load of paper I a crumped potato chip bag I weighing a couple of tons, more or less. Can I have a ride? asked several students of the struggling truck haulers. Hop in and see how smoothly it runs, yelled Frank proudly amid laugh ter from the spectators. With the truck rumbling along behind them, the boys had to stop occasionally for breath, but other- wise everything rolled smoothly. My word! The muscle of it! Tattler TlElhighr It's going to be something different and the people that come to this dance are really going to enjoy themselves, convincingly stated Michael J ackscy, michievious, quickwitted general chairman of the Weinachtstanz, Christmas dance to be given by the German and Spanish clubs tonight. In addition to being in charge of this dance, Michael is the junior editor of the Saga, a press- man in the printshop, a member of the Sr. Hi-Y, and the Little Theater Guild and also holds a passive membership in the Freie Bahn, German club. With a broad grin Mr. Jakcsy remarked that people called him Mickey, Mikey, Mike, and Michael. In his spare time he develops pictures and reads good fiction. He likes to take part in club programs and admits that he likes school.

The Bears were ragged in their floor lay for a short time but improved as he game progressed. There were few Ong shots by the Polar Bears as they were able to work the ball in for sucker shots while the Blissfield players got lfew shots from the short court. Woodward zoomed to a 31-5 lead late 'n the last quarter as Blisstield had failed to penetrate the Bear defense for a field goal. Then with a mixture of 'VVoodward second and third string men opposing them the Blissiield team scored three goals and Woodward one. Fourteen Bears saw action. They were Robens, Haddad, Hoskins, Boykin, J aswiecki, and Hodge, forwardsg Bojan- owski, and Ford, centers: and Green- wood, Dorf, Stack, Morel, Klonowski, and Francis, guards.

Having been made by pupils' own hands, the dishes will be appropriate Christmas gifts from the students, and already six have been presented to Miss June Anderson and six to Mrs. Barley, formerly Miss Opal Drennan. Profits Of Shekel Shuffle To Be Divided Among 31 Clubs From a complete and final report on the Shekel Shuffle, it was learned that the net proceeds amounted to 59300. The student committee, chosen to work on the dance, voted to divide this money evenly among the 31 clubs which participated in the affair. Each club will receive three dollars credit on its group picture in the Saga. Ticket sales reached a sum of 311700. Expenses totaled 32400. Coaches Champs After coaching Walbridge to a county championship in his first year at the helm in '36, Art Turby, former St.Johns student and a brother of Al Turby form- er Woodward ace, is aiming for higher laurels this year.

The first half proved to be only a sample as the Cubs came back to make the final score 50 to 5. Blissfield was held to one field goal while Woodward scored 22. With practically the whole team see- ing action, everyone had a good chance to see what brand of ball the Cubs are going to play this season. Boys who saw action are Zelles, Lein- inger, Shea, Kaminski, Ford, Hogg, Campbell, Klocko, Turrittin, James, T. Nowak, A. Davis, Jordan, D. Nowak, E. Nowak, and Navarre. WOODWARD BLISS FIELD G. F. T.

Nursing, Economics Classes Tour Ohio Cloverleaf Dairy During the inspection of the Ohio Cloverleaf Dairy by the nursing and home economic classes, it was discover- ed that the dairy receives milk from 525 farms. This milk is brought to a re- ceiving room, where a sample of each can is tested. If the milk colors when mixed with an acid used in their labora- tory, it is considered unfit for drinking purposes. In a container having a capacity of 1,500 gallons, the milk is standardized for butter fat. Filling of bottles, capping, and steri- lizing is all done by machinery. Un- sold milk is returned to the dairy and made into cheese, butter, and butter- milk. After the tour of the dairy, the visit- ing groups were given ice-cream and chocolate milk and were shown talking FACULTY MAN WILL GIVE 'SPORTSMANSHIP CUP' -JE 9E 'll'Q.5lail. A headline on the Blade sport page read something like this, Bears sren't out of the race while Hanham is coach. The story went on to tell of Hanham's success as a reserve coach and his Hrst year at the helm of the varsity. It ended up by saying that while the ma- jority of the sport dopesters didn't con- cede Woodward much of a chance that the Bears are always a team to be reck- oned with. At the Blissfield game Harry Zarem- ba made out Homer Hanham's chart, Robert Hoffman took care of the score- board, and Bob Shuff was timekeeper. Barney Banasiak and Ed Bialorucki kept the players bench clear while Joe Sterling was score keeper. Dick Davis, former Woodward athlete was one of the officials of the reserve game. Whitey Hood accompanied the Wood- ward basketball team on its recent trip to Van Wert and Lima as student mana- ger.

Intra-City Games To Be Basis Of Judges Ultimate Decision For the first time Woodward students will have a chance to help win a basket- ball trophy to be given for good sports- manship by the faculty managers asso- ciation at the finish of the season. The judges, who will be the principals of the schools or someone appointed by them, will grade on the sportsmanship of the school officials, teams, and the attending crowds. The cooperation of the officials, the language and accep- tion of referees' decisions by the play- ers, and the cheering and loyality of students are a few of the things which will be graded. The purpose of this contest is to encourage friendly instead of bitter rivalry between the high schools. .The cup will not remain in the posses- sion of one team but will be forwarded the following year to the school that wins. Only intra-city games will be used in finding the winner. The cooperation of all the students, the team, and the school officials is needed to bring this trophy to our school.

LARGE LIST HERE Oh hum, almost midnight, I guess I had better hang up my stocking. Dear me! someone is comi-ng down the chim- ney. Aren't you supposed to be in bed? asked dear old Saint Nick with a jovial smile. This is the first house I have visited that hasn't been dark and silent. But since you are up perhaps you can help, I have a long list that has to be filled tonight. First on the list is Hugh Montgom- ery. Ah! we have just the thing for him, a toy printing press, and here are the Dionne Quintuplet dolls for Hazel Coy. Next on the list is Eva Leu, for her I have two pets, a dog and a cat. I Won- der which one will be her favorite. Now let me see. Ah! a football, why that's for Arthur Smith. I'll put my magic charm on it and hope he uses it next season. Hm-m-m-m, I wonder who this erector set is for? Well, well, the card reads 'Joy Mohrhardtf Now here is a great big Ma-Ma doll for Laura Adams and a miniature sewing set, too. How nice. Last on this list is Charles C. LaRue. For him, I have a brand new paddle. My other list includes this paint set for Frances Reed, and a kiddie-car for Art Colby. Carl Sitter can occupy his spare time with this B.B. gun, but I wonder if we can trust him with it. Con- nie Quay can have the joke book, though I hardly think she needs it. Dear me! Only one more present left. This one goes to Virginia Meyers. Sweets t0 the Sweet. I hope it doesn't make her ill. Oh my goodness! It is getting late so I must go now, so goodby until next Christmas Eve and a Merry Christmas to you all.

Junior Red Cross Displays Possible Donations In Case The week of December 14 to I9 being Red Cross week, a display in the show case was made by the Junior Red Cross organization showing blankets, dolls, books. Typifying what could be used for the poor by the Red Cross, the group hopes that donations of this sort will be made to the association which is advised by Mrs. Mary O' Brien. Maps, books, and historical articles were exhibited last week by the Munic- ipal club. GROUP WILII BUILD TELESCOPES HERE Two Nearly Done, Nine Plan Building Of Six Inch Reflectors With the intent of constructing their own telescopes, eleven Woodward boys met under the supervision of W. F. Rohr, head of the industrial arts de- partment. At the meeting Aaron Novick ex- plained the theory of the refiecting telescope. The practical aspects were discussed and questions were asked. All the fellows present decided on starting work with telescopes of six inch aperture. Dave Sliwinski and Aaron N ovick are completing their telescopes. This hobby, under the direction of the Scientific American magazine, has swept the country in recent years. The glass to make the primary mir- rors may be donated by the Libbey- Owens Ford Plate Glass Company who is interested in this project. Abrasives will be purchased. Others interested in telescope mak- ing at Woodward are Fred Dickman, Virgil Pollock, Chester Kazmierczak, Harry Zaremba, William Raczko, Jer- ome J anisewski, Eugene Farewell, Rob- ert Walterschied, and Dan Krzyzaniak. Ann Wetterman Received Letter From Former King Spain and everything Spanish was to be the theme of the 'iTechenial of '26. At this time Miss Anne G. Wetter- man, aided by a group of industrious workers, was striving to make the year- book one of the finest ever published. It was decided that the publication would be beautifully complete if an autographed photograph of the Spanish king, Alfonso XIII, could be obtained. Immediately, a letter was dispatched to the monarch. Sometime later, a reply to the epistle was received from Emilio Mava de Torres, private secretary of Alfonso. Thereupon Senor de Torres sent personal good wishes of the king and stated his regrets at not being able to send the desired photograph. He wrote that this favor was only granted in very special instances. The above incident illustrates the many efforts of the former Woodward- ites to make their yearbook a success. Supervisers Give Christmas Party For Student Workers Miss Grace Cronk and Clyde Meek, advisers of the Sophomore class, gave a Christmas party Thursday conference hour for the 32 girls and 2 boys who collect absentee slips first, third and eighth hours. Pupils who assist Mr. Meek in the distribution and checking of tickets also attended the party. A feature of the party was a fivepound box of candy donated by Mr. Meek. STUDENTS HEAR Christmas is a way ofnot believing? stated Professor Hayden at his recent lecture on Christianity and the Hu- manist at the Saturday Night Forum. During his talk, he spoke of the ef- fect of science on the church. Tradition and theory,the very foundations of reli- gion, have been destroyed by this mod- ern world 'of science. When the new world came, it brought with it entirely new ideas which the church was unable to meet. Finally, one by one, the vari- ous phases of life broke away from the church and left it standing alone. It is tough, really, to have to live to- day, he continued. A person knew that if he was able to work he was sure of a job, but today people are never sure of a suitable living. He concluded his talk with Man's great desire is to have a good life and to be able to live peaceably on the earth? - NOTED SPEAKERS In 1928, there was a superiority feel ing against European countries in America. We also r alized that we have much to do at home and do not pay much attention to European affairs, stated Herbert Agar, Toledo Town Hall speak- er, during his lecture on Should Amer- ica Enter European Affairs? Herbert Agar disclosed that among Europe's problems include the Polish corridor between Germany and Poland, and the refusal of new countries, united since the World War, to unite with Aus- tria and Hungary again. The League of Nations is trying to keep the Status quo. In Europe people wanted security and dictators promised this, therefore, people gave up their freedom. country in which you yourself live If we cannot set up a better example of HOLIDAY GREETINGS VOICED IN PIG-LATIN Attlertay Ishesway Allay Easonsay's Estbay Eetingsgray l If you do not study a foreign language' five of the six messages of Christmai cheer on the second page are wasted on your eyes.

Eighth Wonder Discovered Inside Woodward's Portals . The eighth wonder of the world has just been discovered! More astounding, more startling, more surprising than ever before. This deviation from the usual' will revolutionize Woodward's bow-tied necks and cause a momentous landslide. In short, Mr. Hugh Mont- gomery deserted his lovable little black bow .tie in favor of the more popular four-in-hand style. Will Wonders never cease.

It has been said that the letters will not be awarded until Recognition Day and since I am a senior it will not afford me any chance to wear it in school. After you are through school the letter does not command the same feeling that it does while you are still attending. Other schools have already received their letters, and thus the players have had a chance to get sweaters for them. Many of the boys would have received sweaters for Christmas if they had their letters and still others can get them. I speak not only! for myself but I 'WTNT' TO BE GIVEN AS FIRST OPERETTA Mr. Ball WTNT, the first Glee club operetta of the year, is being planned as a Feb- ruary event.

In order to finish the gym, it will be necessary to either obtain another ap- propriation from the W.P. A. or have the Board of Education finish it. Since the workers left the job before completing the roof, which has collected large pools of water at each end be- cause of inadequate water drainage, it is not plausible to lay the new maple Hoor, for the Athletic Board fears that the roof will leak causing the floor to warp. Principal LaRue is attempting to ob- tain another allotment of money for the project, but it is doubtful that the addition will be completed before Febru- ary. L. T. G.

This event climaxed the high school football career of many students. After listening to Frank Buckley, Paul Schrader, and Bob French, sports editors of the News-Bee, Times, Blade, respectively, the guests heard one of the feature speakers, Steve Toth, mem- ber of the Big Ten champions. Lynn Waldorf than addressed the gathering and he climaxed the program by show- ing movies. The first was a complete movie of the Northwestern-Minnesota game and the other was Touchdown Shots. Editor's Note: The following was written by Dave Weisberg, English instructor and freshman basketball coach, in a letter to the editor. Henry Page should be given a vote of thanks for his interest in high school football in Toledo. The high school football players who attended this brilliant affair were happy to be honored guests of Mr. Page. I don't think I've ever heard a Hner speaker than Lynn Waldorf, coach of Northwestern University. He continu- ally had his audience spellbound with his humorous athletic stories and his experiences as a player and coach. His address left thought in many high school students minds about fair play and suc- cess in life. I noticed the fine spirit of friendship that exists among our six local high high schools. This was my first experience in at- tending the annual Page banquets. I hope I am fortunate enough to be in- vited to a few more.

Language Groups' Adviser Pays Tribute To Workers The Weihnachtstanz of 1936 with its glittering and refined atmosphere was indeed a great success, Hnancially as well as socially. Max Davis is deserving of great cred- it for his lighting effects, and so are all the boys of the decoration committee, Lewis Beebe, Michael Jacksy, William Bloomer, Dick Bader, Fred Glass, Jack Wehrle, Chester Pawleck, Clifford Krum and Norman Wolf. And an espe- cially beautiful orchid to the three faith- ful ones who showed up bright and ear- ly, after the waltz was over, to disman- tle the ballroom, Lewis Beebe, Michael J acksy and Dick Bader. The members of the Spanish and Ger' man clubs may think with a glow of pride in their hearts of their Weih- nachtstan' of 1936.3 Miss Annie Wetterman. Tests Taken By Girls' Gym Classes For Book Material Recent activities in the girls' gym have been tests in volleyball serving and volleying the ball. Tests in basket- ball will be given in the near future. These tests are being given for the benefit of Dr. Frederick W. Cozens, University of California, who is writing a book called Tests and Measure- ments. S He has asked schools all over the country to take the tests and send the results to him. The city of Toledo divided its tests, and girls from Woodward voted for two volleyball tests and two basketball tests. Test are taken by the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades only, in order to de- termine what the average ability of a girl in these grades should be. Hanham Address Girls, Athletic League Meeting Discussing the basketball rules and changes made this year, Homer Hanham addressed members of the Girls' Athlet- ic League at a meeting held third hour, last Tuesday, January 5. Each rule was demonstrated by Al Greenwood, Chuck Hoskins and Walt Bojanowski. Mr. Hanham expressed the hope that better understanding of rules might give Woodward a better chance of win- ning the sportsmanship trophy offered this.uaa.r Close Game Expected When Squads Compete In Central Gym Woodward's basketeers will clash with Central in their initial game ofthe city race tonight on the latter's court. - Both teams have gone down to defeat in one pre-season game, Woodward at the hands of VanWert and Central at those of Maumee. Although handicapped by the loss of most of last year's players, Central has been strengthened by three former St. J ohn's players: Thompson, Sullivan, and Gallagher who have been in the start- ing line-up for most of this season's games. Bob Robens who has won himself starting position on the Woodward squad,.is also a former St. J ohn's player. Having already tasted defeat, the Bears will take the floor determined to bring back a victory. Coach Hanham will start Boykin and Robens at forwards, Greenwood and Morel at guards, and Bojanowski at center. Powell, Neman, Thomson, Sullivan, and Gallagher will probably start for Central. The Woodward reserves will meet the Central team in the preliminary game at 7:00 p. m. followed by the varsity game at 8:15. New Instructor Teaches Dave Weisberg's Classes My hobbies? Off' hand, I'll say teach- ing and my two children. Thus remark- ed Mrs. Beatrice N. Meyer, a new teach- er within Woodward's portals. Because Mr. Dave Weisberg has tak- en over the late Mr. Worf's classes Mrs. Meyer is instructing Mr. Weis- berg's groups. A graduate of Wittenberg College, Mrs. Meyer holds a life Certificate for High Schools. At times, she does pri- vate tutoring in high school subjects for high school credit. Formerly she taught in Indiana and in several other Ohio cities. Aside from teaching Mrs. Meyer's interests center principally about mu- sic and travel. Home Economics Students Study Costume Designing Miss Laura Adams, eighth hour first year home economics class has taken up the study of costume designing. With the aid of color charts, the colors are classified under different heads. The class also examines the costumes found in magazines for unique color schemes and designs. 9 Do-pe Corner A wide open race for the city champ- ionship has been predicted with all teams having one or more defeats chalk- ed up against them. Tonight will see the city season opened with three tilts, Woodward will visit the Central gym for a game with the Irish, Waite will be guests of the DeVilbiss Tigers, and Vocational will travel to Scott for their game. The Woodward-Central game will be an even tilt with Woodward's win over Lima Central looking more impressive than any of the Irish victories. In the Waite-DeVilbiss tilt two vet- eran teams will clash. DeVilbiss' ability to control the ball should prove a great factor in the game while the shooting ability ozf Al Price will aid Waite. DeVil- biss should win by a very slim margin. Scott should have the easiest task of the evening when they play Vocational. The Mechanics are the newcomers in the city league and their early season work has not seemed of championship caliber although Jim Durst has proved gl 'WI E MEMBER OF TEAM ENGINEERS SWELL RECOGNITION DAY Teachers To Act As Judges, Novick, Shuff Will Be Co-Chairmen Wednesday, June 2, is the tentative date set for Recognition Day, an annual program sponsored by the Tattler at which a cup is awarded to a senior for distinguished service.

Rohr is the adviser of this societv WOODWARD FUNDS One Of Oldest Clubs Boasts Record Of Service To School The Engineering society with its ad viser, William Rohr, has been working for the benefit of the school for many years and is one of the oldest organiza- tions at Woodward. . In 1923 the members of this group rigged up a House of Horrors for a carnival held that year and was award- ed a trophy for bringing in more money than any other organization, There was an Engineering society in almost every Toledo high school, but one by one these clubs were dropped until now there only one or two left in the city. Several years ago the organization started buying oil paintings which were to hang in the welcome space opposite the auditorium. At the present time there are ten pictures, and the total cost is estimated at 3824. The pictures were paid for entirely out of the club's treasury. Most of this money was made from the sale of candy during auditor- ium programs. . This year the Engineering society has paid several bills for the Athletic As- sociation which amounted to 36821. The total profit of this year's candy sales is 511439, and after paying the bills, the remainder went toward the latest oil painting. Besides these expenses, the club has paid the band's traveling cost and hopes to turn in at least 35200 over to the Athle- tic Association this year. Last year, Harold Christy was presi- dent of the organization. This year's president is Kenneth Walker who is also student manager of the football and basketball teams.

It is possible that an activity may be curricular in one school and extra-curricular in another, for example---musical organizations, dramatics, debating, etc. Likewise, within a single school there are changes from year to year in respect to what is and what is not curricular. In the present day high school the line of demarcation between curricular and extra curricular is becoming less sharply drawn, One of the prime reasons for the present day trend toward extra curricular activities is the belief that the business of the school is to organize its program so that there is a favorable opportunity for every one, teachers and pupils alike, to practice the qualities of a good citizen with satisfactory results. All of us are citizens of our school with certain rights, duties, privileges and obligations. It is recognized that practice, with satisfactory results, tends to make perfect, that is, tends to make us perfect citizens. The qualities of a good citizen must be formulated by every separate school. Here at Woodward we set up cer- tain standards which we continually try to maintain. In our extra-curricular program are included the following---Home Room, Assembly programs, Student Council, Class Or anizations, School Publications, Parent-Teacher Association, Inter-school and Intra-mural athletics, a large Fms'r Row: Edward Shapiro, George Spaulding, Miss Miller, Emma Berdue, Dorothy Siebanaller.

They felt superior to their younger classmates as those had who had gone before them. They looked forward to the year with greater interest and expectations. A few lagged behind and those who lost pace dropped aside. The Juniors, too, elected a feminine c assma e 0 s eer . , , started the year successfully by appointing committee members. With the support of her cabinet she has made much progress. Other oiiicers include: George Spaulding, vice president, Dorothy Siebenaller, secretary, Edward Shapiro, treasurerg Mahlon Swisshelm, sergeant-at-armsg and Benjamin Sliwinski, reporter. Hands of Father Time were pushed back for an evening when the members of the class met together at their iirst social event of the year, the annual Kid Party, held December 4. A few months later the J-Hop took place on February 6 at the Chamber of Commerce, where third-year students had the opportunity to meet again. On May 4, the Junior members of the Little Theatre Guild presented the class play, The Black Flamingo. th R'n dance at which the presentation of class rings took place l t t t them through the year Emma Berdue class president The climax of the social activities was e 1 g ' . Regardless of the busy year, the vital importance of scholarship has not been omitted. Miss Amie Miller and Raymond Sheline, class supervisors, may be proud to head such a fine class. The Juniors are now looking forward to their Senior year with much anticipation, when they may fulill their hopes, aspirations, and ideals for Woodward High School.

AMPERED BY THE lack of seasoned campaigners, W0odward's gridders in their second year under Coach Art Smith experienced a very disappointing season. The Bears were able to salvage but one lone victory from a deluge of defeats. The Polar Bears were handicapped from the start as they were scheduled to meet Libbey in their opening game. In this tilt they suffered not only the loss of a game, but Bob Stack, peppery quarterback, too. Then came successive defeats by Scott, Fort Wayne, DeVilbiss and Waite before they dropped Maumee. Though outfighting Central and Van Wert, Woodward absorbed two more beatings when passes went haywire and the opponents grabbed them to place themselves in scoring position. But the holdovers from this team for next season make prospects for success most bright. The Reserve team was unable to get a winning combination on the field and they were dropped five times in as many games. Coach L. C. Clark again was in charge of the Bear Cubs for his third year and since the varsity will have many players returning the Reserves can look forward to the same.

Walt Bojanowski was the lone veteran but Bob Robens came from the discontinued St. John's high and Jim Morel had the experience of a season with the Maumee cagers. Al Greenwood and Bob Stack or Cliff Boykin from last years reserves, rounded out the starting five. The Bears found fair success with nine victories against seven defeats in their regular season while they turned in two victories in the district tournament before bowing out to the champions from Rossford. The aspects for the team next year are excellent with but two of the starters graduating and several capable substitutes will be ready to fill their shoes. The reserve basketball team did not experience the successful seasons of the past but it still serves the main purpose of its origin under Dave McMurray's tutelage, that of supplying the varsity with coming material. Freshman again had their cage team, this year under the tutelage of Dave Weisberg. The frosh downed all teams in the city with the exception of the city champions, the Waite team.

S., Also Canada Mr. Montgomery Next week, Hugh Montgomery and his printshop boys will join other stu- dents and professional printers all over the country in celebration of National Printing Education Week. lnaugurated eight years ago by two ambitious New England teachers, the Printing Week was recently reorganized by the Nation- al Education Association and is now celebrated all over the United States and Canada. This week is dedicated to the mem- ory of Benjamin Franklin, who was one of the first prominent printers in this country, and to the stimulation of printing among the youths of America. One of the recent developments of Printing Week is the essay contest on Color in Printing initiated by the In- ternational Printing Ink Corporation and sponsored by the Graphic Arts Education Guild to arouse constructive thought on color among students. Michael Jakcsy, local winner of the essay contest, has sent his prize win- ning essay to the national headquarters to compete for the national prize. Mr. Montgomery plans a big celebration if Michael wins the contest. To stimulate interest in printing among Woodward pupils, the printshop will place pages of the 1937 Saga in the display case along with the sets of books won by three local winners of the essay contest. The two winners be- sides Michael are Roy Shaffer and Jack Wehrle. The books won by the three best es- says will be presented to the winners Monday morning at a meeting of the printers in room 141. Mr Vortriede will present the prizes. ,,,.. .....- Vaudeville Acts Organized By Members Of Play Shop When the Play Shop held its regular meeting recently, members of the club were divided into six groups, each group being responsible for a vaudeville act.

BOUT a month ago an editorial appeared in this column advising students to avoid the bug-bear of exams by hard work. Tuesday and Wednesday of next week will be devoted to that bug bear. Students who took that advice will be absent those days. To those who will be required to par- ticipate in this mental struggle, we can only sug- gest a few time honored resolutions and wish them better luck next time. - Ben Franklin Said ENJAMIN FRANKLIN once said, An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Everyone accepts this maxim as true. 'But do the drivers who speed down Mulberry and other streets ajdoining school every morning, real- ize the applicability of this maxim to their situ- ation? Those breakneck speeds can end only in one thing, tragedy. Before someone has to pay with his life for the cure, wouldn't it be better to buy the ounce of prevention? Practice Makes Perfect VEN though Woodwardis basketball teams are annual champions, it seems that the general run of students in this building are pitifully bad shots. What is your waste basket average? Those whose paper wads, dropped from a height of 2 feet 35 inches directly above the exact center of the container, hit their mark less than four times out ofa possible five times cannot be honorably called Wastebasketeers. We intend to revive the old-fashioned accom- plishment of Hitting the Waste Basket! lt's fun, try it. Results Q EVERAL weeks ago an editorial appeared in this column requesting more educational mov- ies. We've got them. Next semesteris bookings include some of the best educational films ever made. In addition, a Mickey Mouse technicolor cartoon will be shown as a dessert with each movie. The names of these pic- tures, found elsewhere in this issue, should complete- ly refute the idea that films have no place in school. Some don't, but these certainly do. We congratulate Principal LaRue on his wise selection. Our business now is to look forward to the new se- mester. We once again make a fresh start. All our mistakes and failures are behind us. If they handicap us we must try to eradicate them and dedicate our- selves anew to hard worlk. Do not be misled by individuals who go about giving false advice about school attendance and application to your studies. Education really pays and the person who is successful in school has far greater chances for success in after school life than those who fritter away their time and so lose out. Make up your mind to start right in the new semes- ter. Get each lesson and assignment as they come, and your persistence and determination to succeed will be crowned with success. Nutty Nicknames Honey and Fish.,' A menu? Not at all, just a couple of the nicknames iioating around the building. These two have been attached to Ted Klonowski and Helen Trautman, respectively. Among the intellectuals who compose the student body is P1ofess0r.l' His other name? Our mana' Max Godfrey, of course. Maybe it isn't nice to advertise locker numbers, but if you look carefully you'll find that No. 1883 is occu- pied by Peanuts Not monkey food, silly, Beatrice Fingerhut is the name.

Balled-up Basketball Imagine people trying to outwit each other, just to get a ball through a hoop on the wall. Calling the players cagers is the silliest thing ever heard of. What connection can there be with the zoo? When a player does something he isnlt supposed to, the crowd starts talking about poultry. Someone yells fowl And the funniest part is, they can't even spell, because when you see it in the paper, it looks like this, foul Then there's a fowl shot. Did you ever see any birds falling? There are five players on each squad. Someone should ses the quintuplets about starting a team. Another crazy thing about this game is having guards watch over the other team. Are they afraid someonels going to kidnap them? Maybe a few GH men could be engaged to help the fellows who run up and down the floor trying to get the ball in the basket.

Pennies from Heaven All was quiet and throughout study hall 216 no a sound could be heard. Suddenly three tinklin bells resounded one after another.

In fact, five years ago, 1932 to be exact, is too long for any of you lofty seniors even to recall. But the fact remains that in that memorable year, a school called Woodward ac tually existed. Some important things happened thatl year, too, proof of which might be found in the Saga Tattler of 1932, to wit: Miss Betty Nelson was a freshie that year, having just begun teaching the Woodwardites after several years of Sherman endeavoring. Also Miss Coy was becoming gradually initiated into our rituals in that year. Ditto for Mr. Pollock. Organization of the Quill and Dagger was brought to pass, and now look at how they monopolize the hall with their blinding orange colors. Operettas that year consisted of Up in the Air starring Lois Hotz and later In Old Louisiana occupied their efforts. Class plays were Applesauce,' for the juniors, directed by Miss Anne Wetterman and starring Robert Bader and Roberta DuMonte. Oh Kay with Mildred Troup in the leading role, furnished the senior entertainment. Clyde Van Tassel was executor. What year is complete without a popularity con- test? Results of a poll to name Miss and Mr. Wood- ward gave these honors to Lillian Sheon and Paul Boardman. Well, maybe they did do a lot of nice things in '32 but we're willing to bet that the year 1937 and its classes will be as favorably remenbered in 1942 as we now recall good old 1932. In Our Library Let the Hurricane Roar, by Rose Wilder Lane. Published by Longmans, Green and Co. Let the Hurricane Roar is a simply written story of a courageous young married couple, Charles and Caroline, who went West to homestead. During the first year on their homestead, the little Charles John was born and the two were very happy. They had a wonderful crop of wheat that would be sold for S2000 with which they could build a big house. But they had reckoned without the grass- hopper plague which destroyed everything for miles aror nd and polluted all the water. Charles and Caroline were desperate. Charles decided to leave Caroline with a Swedish couple, who were their only neighbors, and go East to get a job. Caroline carried on alone at their dugout home when the neighbors moved, and then news came that Charles had broken his leg and could not return. All through the winter the brave young wife and mother struggled to exist. She remembered Charles' favo- rite Hymm: Let the hurricane roar! It will soon be o' er! We'll weather the blast and land at last On Canaan's happy shore! There is something in this story to move every American--something to challenge these times, too, in the courage of that earlier generation. CENTRAL DEFEATS - WOODWARD, 23-20 Reserves Beaten in Rough Battle With Irish By 17-16 Failing in a last minute barrage, Woodward's warriors of the hardwood dropped a hard fought tilt to Central by a 23-20 count. I The Bears were ineffective against the zone defense set up by the Irish, as their long shots spun out of the hoop or fell short and they seemed unable to break a man under the basket con- sistently. Bob Stack proved to be the eager who kept Woodward close when he connected on three Helders and a foul. Thompson with eight points was the leading scorer. The following are the totals for the varsity gamea F F Woodward T Central FG F T Jaswieki f 2 0 4 Powell 0 3 3 Boykin f 1 0 2 Sullivan 3 0 6 Haddad f 0 1 1 Nemon 2 0 4 Bojanowskic 2 0 4 Thompson4 0 8 Morelg 0 2 2 Gallagher 1 0 2 Stack Z 3 1 7 ' 20 Totals 10 3 23 Totals 8 4 The Woodward reserves went down to their first defeat in a rough and tumble game with Central by the score of 17 to 16 on the latter's court, last Friday evening.

One division will take up the art of dancing while the other proceeds with basketball. After a required num- ber of weeks, the groups will change. The type of dancing has not yet been chosen, but will be decided upon at a later date. Mrs. Naomi Loenhardt, who played for the class last year, is to be the pianist again. Dope Corner As the city cage race is continued we find that many of the favorite teams have been stung by defeat. On the cage program tonight we find Woodward traveling to Bowling Green, Waite visit- ing Vocational, Libbey encountering Scott, and DeVilbiss playing at Central. The school predictions for the Wood- ward-Bowling Green game give the Bears an even chance to trip the Bob- cats despite the string of victories they wld over Toledo teams. The veteran aite team should prove too much for Ehe mechanics and should win easily. n the Scott-Libbey encounter the Scott Bulldogs should add this game to the Cowboys' list of consecutive ity losses, started two years past. The 6l'igers are predicted to win their game with the Irish by a few points after an exciting battle. Looking on Tuesday night's cage of- ering and not knowing the outcome of onight's battles, we find Woodward laying host to Scott. Libbey visiting aite, and Vocational playing DeVil. biss at the Tiger gym. Both Waite, and eVilbis should add another victory to ts column, while the Woodward-Scott ame is a toss-up. SCHOOL BOWLING SCHEDULE OPENS Polar Bears Beat Waite Two Out Of Three Games In National League The 1937 city high school bowling schedule opened last Saturday morning at Larry Gazzolo's Auditorium alleys. Woodward's National league started its schedule by taking two out of three games from Waite, while the Americans lost two out of three to the DeVilbiss bowlers. Carl Sitter of the National league rolled Woodward's best single game and three game set. He shot a 189 for the highest single game and 486 for a three game total. Sitter is one of the few boys who bowled on the team last year. Leading Woodward's Americans is Earl Ardner's 170 and Julian Jordan's three game total of 442. Robert Woz- niak, who captained the team last year, is again captain of the Americans.

DANCE CHAIRMAN K EEPS SELF BUSY Alice Saba Has Hobbies Galoreg Plans To Be Decorator i Where are you going my pretty maid? Oh, I'm in a hurry, I've a lot of things to do, and l'm nobody's pretty maid. That was an answer to stump the boldest. But did it daunt Ye Olde Tattler Inte rviewer? Not much! Grabb- ing Alice Saba, questions were fired at her in rapid succession. From the equal- ly rapid and snappy replies the follow- ing information was gained about this maid with the flashy brown eyes who has taken the responsibility of general chairmanship for Winter Wonder- land, annual Art Klan dance scheduled for this evening. The whole of her quiet, unpretentious life has been spent in the confining boundaries of Toledo. LaGrange school is as proud to claim eight of her educa- tional years as Woodward is of its all too meager four. Hobbies? Everthing I do is a hobby. And that means everything. She'd just as soon dance her life away if she didn't have other important things to do. The only thing I don't like , she ex- plained, are high-hatters. And--Qmale population take noticeJI require noth- ing in a boy except companionship. As a conclusion, Alice voiced the de- sire that future years would find her in the capacity of interior decorator so that she may make pretty the homes of her old-time Woodward pals.

CLUB PROBES LOCAL l FRENCH INTERESTS Research Work Is Initated By Virginia Skelding, French Pupil To develop interest in local history, the French club is carrying on a project on the history, the French life and in- stitutions in and around Toledo. The project was started when Vir- ginia Skelding, student in Miss Adri- enne Curtis' first hour French class, brought in an article written about the French explorers who stopped at Cedar Point as a convenient break between the river and lake trips. The newspaper article was written in connection with the Historal Society of Northwestern Ohio's article entitled Cedar Point in the Light of Other Days, by Wilmont A. Ketcham, 1860-1928. The book, Youth Serves the Com- munity, by Paul R. Hanna and a reaserch staff of the Works Progress Administration, shows that many of these projects are being carried on all over the country. The members of the French club will make surveys to gather information from the court files, libraries, museum, private citizens, church records and organizations. The findings will be dis- cussed at the club meetings. Miss Adrienne Curtis, adviser of the club, is directing the work.

Rich La.nd, Poor Land is an inter- esting account of our country and what has been done with its resourcesf' stated Mrs. Alexander while speaking of her first book. The chapter on the Tennessee Valley Authority is the most thrilling one according to Mrs. Alexander. She remarked that this book should prove very interesting to young people. Give yourself the treat of reading 'Heads and Tails' by Melvina Hoffmanf, advised Mrs. Alexander. Miss Hoffman who studied under Rodin, a famous French sculpter traveled around the world in three years in order to study the types of people in foreign countries. Using types of the various nations, she made 101 statues which form the, Hill of Man in the Field Museum, Chicago.

Why, some of those contrap- tions went at the terrific pace of 12 miles an hour. It wasn't safe. Time has passed. With the advancement of the modern era, the younger generation has called for speed, speed, and more speed. One careless moment and an innocent person has been maimed for life, perhaps killed. This need not happen. We find that steps have been taken to curb these dire results. To Ralph Dugdale we owe a note of thanks for his organization of safety classes for all pupils. This highly commendable action of our public minded superintendent of schools should be appre- ciated by all of the students of Toledo. Let's meet Mr. Dugdale halfway and make this world a better and safer place in which to live. .1-11-il Ways To Live N THE January issue of the Readers' Digest, Lincoln Stefiins, famous newspaper man, makes an interesting statement. He writes that nothing is done finally and right and that nothingis known positively and completely. This June, thousands of students will be liberated to face a world of business where there is no teacher to guide or instruct them. The only teacher will be experience. X An inexperienced person trying to gain entrance into an already crowded profession is faced with a wall of difficulty. Ingenuity is the keynote of our swiftly changing era. In every profession, no matter how seemingly efhcient, there exists some detail or condition to be remedied or perfected. Enterprising persons gradu- ating this year should take advantage of this fact. Those not especially skilled in any one thing should create their own jobs. Students should begin to think of these things now and be prepared for the eventual graduation. -- ...ii Don't Give Up The Ship SPORTSMANSHIP CUP has been promised for the most sportsmanlike student body. Wood- ward students met and decided it was entirely possible for them to win as they had had a good reputation in the past. But things have changed. A supposedly mediocre Polar Bear basketball team has recently beaten the league favorites. Pleasantly surprised, Woodward studentshave lost their heads, and have begun to lose their chances for the trophy. It is not too late. The student body can yet revert to normal, consequently having a good chance for the cup. There is no ban against cheering, so there might also be another winning team. 1.

In Our Library Coming from a long line of self-sufficient, simple- living people, Ada Fincastle, the heroine of Ellen Glasgowis book Vein of Iron, has the mettle to withstand the blows that life gives her. The book is essentially the love story of Ada and Ralph McBride, who have grown up together. Janet Rowan, a childhood friend of Ralph and Ada is a spoiled, shallow girl who wants Ralph because she cannot have him. Janetis subtle scheming separates Ralph and Ada, and Ralph marries her. Subsequent events, how- ever, bring Ralph and Ada together again and they are married after the World War. These years of prosperity and then depression are pictured most interestingly and with a clear insight by Miss Glas- gow.

The Bears scored but one field goal in the first half as B. G. held a 12-7 lead when the gun ended the first two periods. Al Greenwood scored five points in the second half toincrease his total to nine but this failed to help the bears as the Cats more than matched these points. Scott Game Although weakened by the loss of Walt Bojanowski in the first quarter because of fouls, the Woodward Polar Bears emerged from the fray, a week from last Tuesday, the victor over the picked Scott Bulldogs by the score of 24-19. Breaking away from the 7-7 tie, the Bears had a 15-9 advantage at the inter- mission. Greenwood, with 9 points and Wearly with 5 led their respective teams in scoring. The game was exceedingly rough and found both teams collecting a good number of fouls. Besides the loss of Bojanowski in the first quarter, Bob Stack and Chuck Tobin of Woodward and Scott respectively, left because of fouls in the final period. Woodward Scott FG F T.P. FG F 4 T.P.

With Bojanowski, high point man of the game with eight points, the Bears played a brilliant game, scoring the biggest upset of the season. The first three points for each team were scored by free throws and at the half Woodward led 12-11. In the last few moments ofthe game, the Bears warded off the frenzied thrusts of the Indians and time after time grabbed the ball from under the Waite basket and using splendid team- work, advanced the ball down the iioor to chalk up more points putting the game on ice. I DeVilbiss Wins Unable to cope with immense height of Bob Kearney and Dick Haag, Wood- ward dropped their ' second intercity tilt in four starts. The DeVilbiss Tigers were the 33-28 victors. Neither team could hit the hoop consistently in the Hrst half , as the score stood at 10 all with each team scoring four fielders and two fouls. The second half started fast with the lead changing at every basket with not more then two points seperating the teams at any time. The fourth quarter found Kearney's follow up and pivot shots piling up and DeVilbiss taking an eight point advan- tage. A desperate Bear rally led by Skip Boykin closed the gap to five points but at that point time ran out. Summary: X The following is the scoring: Woodward FG F T.P.

Coming back at the half mark with the Tigers leading 7 to 6, Wood- ward limited them to two points the sec- ond half while scoring twelve them- selves. The Bears were defeated at Bowling Green after being ahead at the half mark when the the Bobcats began to hit the basket from mid-court, scoring 11 points in the second half. The final score was 19 to 15. Playing the Scott and Waite games here, the Woodward team went down to defeat in both games, the first by a large score and the second after hold- ing a ten point advantage at the three quarter mark. The only time the Bears were ahead in the Scott game was when James sank a field goal early in the first quarter but the Scott team was never headed from there on as they easily won with the Hnal score being 22 to 10. The Waite team overcame a large lead in the final quarter and won its game by a 22 to 19 score. Central Strengthens Lead In Race By Beating Scott Central cagers strengthened their hold on first place last Tuesday by de- feating Scott 29 to 28. Woodward dropped from third to a fourth place tie with Scott by virture of its defeat at the hands of the DeVilbiss Tigers. Vocational became sole possessor of the cellar position when the Craftsmen were defeated by the Libbey Cowboys, the final score being 37 to 21. W. L.

POLAR BEARS FACE VOCATIONAL, LIBBEY - Bears Favorites To Down Opponents Tuesday And Friday Continuing its fight to retain suprem- acy in the city basketball league this year, the Woodward basketball squad meets Vocational this evening and re- turns again to the court Tuesday to meet Libbey. Of the two, Libbey will probably prove toughest. Vocational in its first year in the league seems decidedly outclassed as it has gone down to defeat under topheavy scores to Scott, Waite, and Central. In individual scoring Vocation- al claims top ranking with Jim Durst leading the league. Considering all the facts Woodward should have little trouble downing Vocational. Libbey, despite the fact it ranks low in the league, seems to pack quite a punch and is liable to explode any time. Again consulting statistics we believe Woodward will again ring the bell. The probable varsity lineups for these two games are at the forward positions, for Woodward, Greenwood and Robens, at center, Bojanowski, at guards, Morel and Stack. For Vocational at forwards, Hackley and Durst, Gillette at center, Varraber and Shields at the guard posi- tions. The fellows who will probably take the iiocr for Libbey, at forwards, Smythe and Hoffman, Pinneger at cen- ter, Moss and Holloway at guards.

Bears Whip Irish In Bowling Games Woodward's National league bowlers entered the second week of competi tion in the Blade High School league by taking a pair of games from Central while the American quintet dropped three games to a strong Libbey team. Bill Miles rolled a high single game of 176 and a three game total of 456 to lead Woodward's Nationals in their first week. Walter Bojanowski had the high 'three game count, 462. The Americans totaled 21005 the Nationals, 2101 in the opening week of play. However, the second week showed a marked improvement, both teams reach- ing exactly the same total, 2171. In last Sat1'rday's bowling, the Americans were recompensed for their defeat of the previous week when they chalked up a clean sweep of games from Waite. For the third consecutive week, the Nationals took two out of three games, this time from Vocational. Carl Sitter repeated his performance of the first week. He rolled a single game of 192 and a three game set of 550g both represented Woodward's best scores so far this year. J ankowski and Ardner divided honors in the American league, Jankowski with 170 and Ardner with a total of 483.

With the beginning of the second semester Woodward's ten special classes were reorganized with a total enrollment of approximately 452 pupils who have undertaken these more ad- vanced and special classes offered to Woodward students. Thirty-eight upperclassmen fand no womenj have undertaken the advanced mathematics classes, solid geometry and trigonometry, which are taught by E.R. Rike, head of the mathematics department. Mr. Rike is wondering if no girls are going to attend college,for there are no girls taking these courses which are so essential in any college work. The Home Economics classes, under .Miss Blanche Hazelton and Miss Angela Abair, lead in enrollment with 135 pupils enlarging on their culinary talents. Both teachers want it to be known that these are not to be called cooking classes for there arethree subjects taken in under the title of Home Economics, cooking, sewing, and the girl and her family. Miss Hazelton also has a class for sewing with thirty-five enrollments, and Interior Decorating class with seven- teen enrollments. Teaching only the weaker sex, Miss Laura Adams has 132 enrollments in her 'dve sewing classes. Sixty respective salesmen are under Mr. John Grodi in his salemanship classes which round out the list of un- usual classes. ,,.,.,...l1-- Classroom Olippings Mrs. O, Brien's fourth hour biology class disected crayfish last Tuesday.

At present this boy, who is president of the Little Theatre Guild, active in electrical classes, chairman of the Senior Prom committee and taking great interest in his title role of Big Hearted Herbert is looking forward to the future and--Hollywood! But don't get the wrong idea, he is not planning to displace Clark Gable or Robert Taylor: he is going to be the man who attaches a wire here and a cable there, fixing spots so that Harlow's hair is properly lighted and so that Durante's nose is well emphasized. His future hopes are connected with the University of Cincinnati and Tech- nical School of California, from there, to Hollywood. Born In Toledo Claiming Toledo as his birthplace, he left for Columbus at the age of two, returning when he was five. He ex- plained the incident with, Travel was slower those days. Sizzling broiled steaks smothered in mushrooms are his favorite food, but he doesn't shun a Kewpie. Having recently read P. G Wode- houseis Thank You, J eeves, he claims that author as his favorite. One of the staunch supporters of Shakespeare, he asserts He is unexcelled for drama and is the most perfect writer as to character portrayals? rLikes Clever Girls Female entertainment fills a decidedly lesser part of his time but medium sized, dark complexioned brunettes are his favorite type of girl. However, land here's the catchjshe must be in- telligent enough to be interesting and at the same time interested in others.

Eddie Zarn is satisfied that he can dance, at least enough to make atry for the J-Hop Qbecause he asked a pretty junior girl to go with himj.

Fred Saba frowns and decides that that chair down at the other end would be easier on his learning feet. Lawrence Damas thinks its more fun to tease the trombone player, while Walter Klappich sits in the background and reads the latest news in the Tattler between his laughs at the pranks Lawrence displays before the orchestra. The orchestra is now tired of being entertained, so a brief intermission is called, and tired feet race for the near- est chair. Old man rhythm is getting a bit bored, so he decides to leave and take a rest until January 29, when he can come back all pepped up and ready to start on his little children who want to learn how to dance. ,,-i...m...m.- International Group Plans To Visit W.S.P.D.

'Irene' Enters Woodward, Jess Mininger Is Delighted This is a joke on Jess Mininger. He asked especially to have this in- formation printed: Irene and James Thomas have been transfered to Wood- ward from Arcadia, Ohio. James is an ardent cabinet maker. But Jess was so eifusive in relating the above story and so anxious that it be printed, that simple logic makes us decide Jess has gone small-town on Irene.

Speaking on the same program, Frank Newell, circulation manager of the Blade, stressed carefullness, both by pe- destrians and motorists. The third speaker, Dwight Hatcher, representative of the American Auto- mobile Association put forth the same ideas in a convincing manner. Freshmen and seniors composed the audience the Iirst half of the hour, and sophomores and juniors attended the second.

A Chance For Someone FTER some basketball games, the Woodward Engineering society sponsors dances, proiits of which go towards effacing the school's athletic debt. The club is to be highly commended for this activity. But at the dances there are no facilities for checking. This ance. does not encourage good attend- It would be too much to ask the over-burdened Engineers to assume this task. But there are many Woodward organizations who should jump at this chance to be of service. You Must Act EXT Tuesday the Board of Education's 1515 mill levy will be voted upon. It is a law that free text books must be distributed next year. These have to be paid for. Other necessary items bring the needed total well over a million dollars. The average family saves more than enough on the removal of the food tax to compensate its portion of this real estate tax. If this levy fails it will mean further curtailment in teachers pay, in equipment, and in term length. Our public school system will degenerate to a second rate position and only the well-to-do will receive a proper education. Larger classes will make schools appear more like factories, where pupils are shuttled through, than institutions of learning where students acquire an education. The Tattler earnestly desires its readers to urge their parents and voting friends to vote for the levy. Parents, vote for the levy and guarantee your children a proper education. Let's Cooperate HY not join in the school activities? After all, it's our school and we should make every social affair a success. In not only the big activities, but also in our own clubs, we should try to cooperate and make our par- ticiple? organization the most outstanding one in the sc oo . 1.1-1...-1.1 We Have Helped OST of us have been apprised of the terrific devastation the greatest fiood in American history has caused in the Ohio Valley. Stag- gering numbers of the homeless, several hundred deaths, and billions of dollars of property destroyed have shocked an entire nation. Graphic pictures have conveyed details of horror and ruin to the readers of cosmopolitan papers. All governmental agencies, the Red Cross, and many other philanthropic organization have labored hard to alleviate suffering and save lives. The Work of rehabilitating and rehousing more than one half million people will require large sums of money. Calls have been issued for aid. Aid has been lib- erally given. We congratulate the Woodwardites who have given and feel certain that aid will be forthcoming if there is need again. X PRINCIPAL POINTS By C. C. LaRue In EVER. since Adam and Eve were driven from the Garden of Eden,.mankind has E' been compelled to fight for existence. In ' . ..., P the earliest times it was a struggle against Q j .9 obvious forces. According to the Bible, man ':.- Q Was eminently successful in this, living to fx tremendous ages. Then deadly germs be- gan to get in their work and for centur1es diseases known as plagues, curses, and scourges ravaged the land. Not until comparatively recent times were causes of these death dealing scourges known, and remedial measures discovered to subdue them. One by one they have been mastered until now only a few are left in the incurable class. For generations the deadly social diseases have left in their Wake physical disfigurement, mental dis- truction, or death. A sense of false public modesty has forbidden an open fight upon them by our medical scientists. These diseases since the beginning of time have been branded as incurable chiefly because the victims were ashamed or unable to receive proper medi- cal attention. We are now seeing a change of public opinion in regard to these diseases.We have awakened to the truth that there are thousands of innocent vic- tims being made to suffer untold torture while we hide behind the veil of false modesty. The Scandinavian countries have led the way in this drive against social diseases. They have waged the fight in the open. They have proved that these diseases are curable and can be eradicated. Today, while we in America have thousands of cases, they have reduced theirs to a few hundred. In times past, physicians had to fight the ignorance and superstition of the public in order to success- fully treat and stamp out small pox, diphtheria, and tuberculosis. The education of the people along the right lines was necessary to bring this about. We are now turning the guns of education against the social diseases. They will be next to go. Tattler Torchlight The success of the J-Hop will be the result of my committee's splendid cooperationj, emphatically stated Viola Payak, this year's chairman for the affair. A vivid personality, keen sense of humor, capability, and intelligence, these are Viola's requisites for the job. She is an active Zet and member of the Art Klan. Her favorite topic of conversation is the J-Hop. She promises that it will be the best J-Hop Woodward has ever given! And it looks as if Viola is going to realize her am- bitiong with originality running rampant and the whole committee constantly having brilliant ideas. One look at her sparkling eyes and smiling face, and you will agree that if outward signs are a good guide, Viola Payak is pleased with her plans. The answer to last week's Tattler Torchlight was Henrietta Rump. ,.,mi..1-..-..1- A Message To Gracie Dearest Gracie: Oh, Darling, lim just bubbling over with happiness and gossip. You really don't know what you are miss- ing by going away out there to Chicago to live, because things are happening thick and fast here in dear old Toledo, especially Woodward. You know how stuck you used to be on Chuckie Yeager? Well, Justine Mizeris just about carrying him around in her hip pocket, tif he could get into her hip pocket, if she had a hip pocketl. And are many girls seeing red? You remember, don't you, that sweetest little feller, Fred Fay. I mean. Well he has a part in the senior class play, and all the senior girls, especially Grace Miller are just going wild about him. I get quite a hoot out of the Three Musketeers, Joe Francis, Irwin Dorf, and Joe Sterling. They barge along the hall sixth hour stealing potato chips from fair femmes resting and roosting on the radiator and said damsels pretend to be very furious when all the time they are so thrilled they don't even notice that the bell has rung and they are going to be late for their seventh hour classes. ' Which reminds me, I'm going to be late to class if I don't end this doololly. Well, as the fisherman said while describing the one that got away.

Sam: I reckon I kin ef dey ain't no wattahmal- lon patches erelong de road. ---The Voice, Fremont. Ohio. A student of East Technical High School in Cleveland likes to fiddle around with carving tools and to produce replicas of all sorts of things. His latest miniature is a fiddle two and one-eighth inches long which is exact in almost every detail from the bridge to the four pegs used to tightenthe hemp strings. But unfortunately the masterpiece cannot be played, because the hempen strings would snap if they were stretched tight enough to produce a sound.--East Tech Scarab, Cleveland, Ohio. . 4 I l Johnny was a chemist's son, But now he is no more, For what he thought was H2 O Was H2 SO. .--Guard and Tackle, Stockton, Cal. . Dizzy Directions Direction--act of guiding or showing. Thus this term is given in the dictionary and right away, it set me to thinking of all the unnecessary directions thrown around at people when it really isn't neces- sary. Take for example, the mothers curling her off- spring's hair. She says, Now, sugar, holler if mother burns you? Wow! She neednit worry. If Sugar thinks that iron is Within three inches of her skin, she'll let out a beller loud enough to deafen you for weeks. ' Right here in our own Woodward, little Freshy says to big brother Soph, O.K. then you don't have to help me with my home-work if you don't want to! Huh! Am I laughing? Drop that if it's hot, Don't eat it if you don't like it. Sit down if you're tired! Run, here comes a bear? Take the biggest pieoe of cake. Eat your ice cream. Slap her face if she gets fresh. Duck, here comes the bill collector? These are just a few of the unneeded orders issued daily. fExcept for that crack about the cake. However, there is one direction which works the other way--it is very much needed, but still goes un- heeded. Get uplv If mothers had a nickel for every time they've said that to get you Woodwardites out of bed, there wouldn't be any Woodward---we could all have tutors. Now, to get back to what I was saying before. Let's see where was I? Oh, yes! Kick yourself for reading this! Classroom Classics Teacher: After the World War, Serbia and some small countries were made into one state called what? Brilliant Student: Siberia. Miss Tippett: You'll have to prove that state- ment to me before l'll believe it. Nathan Davis: It's in aJewish paper, and I can prove it. Miss Tippett: Will you bring the paper to class so we can all read it?', Edward Corey Cafter a long pause by the classy Yeah! But can we read it?,' Dog-Gone! A tiny white wooly puppy with a black spot ove one eye brought squeals of delight from sophomored in room 309 one day last week. Being a very friend- ly little dog he ventured up and down the aisle making immediate friends with everyone. How dd you do? he seemsd to say. I like it here very much. I hope you like me. ' He sat down on the floor near the desk and start ed to growl for attention which was quickly giver him. Frank Wright suggested the name Felix and that person seconded the nomination and FeliX' was christened while the girls fed him crackers. But all good things come to an end, even i school, so when Mr. Van Gorder came in, the dog went out and 38 pairs of eyes watched Felix Sr carry out Felix Jr. to the second floor and to th cafeteria where he probably was well treated by thd sixth hour group. 'T lv BEARS SPLIT TWO CITY CAGE GAMES Woodward Beats Vocational, Loses To Cowboys In Close Game Paced by Bob Robens and Jim Morel, Woodward downed the last place Voca- tional cagers here Friday evening by the score of 29-19. Opening up a fast offensive attack at the beginning of the game the Polar Bears gathered enough points before the intermission to lead the Craftsmen, 20- 9. In the second half the Vocational quintet scored 10 points to 9 points made by Woodward as the Polar Bears presented a substitute sprinkled lineup. Bob Robens lead in team scoring by slipping 6 field goals and a foul through the hoop. Jim Morel scored 7 points while holding Jim Durst in check dur- ing the time Morel was guarding the city's leading scorer. Durst paced the Craftsmen by scoring 11 of Vocational's 19 points.

Join the newly organized bowling class that meets every Monday from 3:00 to 5:00 p. m. at the Auditorium bowling alleys. The price is ten cents a game. Further information may be obtained from Miss Catherine McClure, girls' gym instruc- tor, who supervises at all bowling meets H Dope Corner 1 By comparing scores of first round ggames, one is under the impression that Nocational will lose another game to gthe Scott Maroons when they meet to- night and thus go deeper into the city bellar. 1 The other city games scheduled for this week end are not so easy to forcast. Although both Waite and DeVilbiss are tied for second place, the Indians have a slight advantage over the Upton Ave. lads because the game is to be played in the Waite gym. 1 The Polar Bears are conceded little ' hance to beat the highly touted Cen- Eral cagers, although the Bears may Completion Of Gym To Begin Next Week Approval of the new W. P. A. appropriation assures the comple- tion of the Woodward gymnasium, although it will not be finished in time for games this season. The appropriation, which calls for S9033 in ederal funds, is 45 per cent of the total cost, the balance in materials is to be furnished by the board. Work will probably start this com- ing Monday. Completion of the new seats, hand ball court and storage rooms under the seats will be the major part of the work. The project will probably be fin- ished by spring vacation. .lT..111...i, V.

Central made sure of its lead by downing the strong Waite Indians 33- 31 in one of the three encounters last Tuesday.

The Xmericans dropped the first game to lentral, but won the remaining two. Carl Sitter rolled a big 224 and added games of 156 and 180 to total 560. He broke both records set by himself last week with these scores, the 224 being Woodward's first 200 game. Bob Wozniak paced thc Americans with a total of 453, while Jordon turned in the best single game of 168. The first substitutions of the year were made in last week's bowling, Haddad in the American and Parry in the National division.

Kaminski was high sco- er with eight points,followed by Klocko and Navarre with five points apiece. Every reserve player saw action. The Woodward team after holding a 12 to 10 lead at the half mark was un- able to keep up the fast pace and fell behind in the final quarter of the Libbey game.

Y i Y and Anni ,POL AR BEARS PLAY IRISH HERE TONIGHT Central, With No Losses In League, Is Favored To Win Comparing games won and lost, one is liable to jump at the conclusion that Central will take the locals to the cleaners without coming against much opposition for they have downed all teams in the city including the DeVilbiss Tigers who beat the Bears in their first round meeting. The Polar Bears also dropped a game' to the Irish in the first game of the year for each team. At that time the Central- ites seemed to be clicking off points at their peak for the last half ofthe round showed them failing percebtibly, mak- ing poor showing against such teams as Libbey, who every one else in the city was able to beat with ease, and Scott, whom Woodward took to the tune of 24-19. Although the Irish are on top of the city standings and Woodward has en- joyed only a mediocre season to date, Bear fans may come to the game tonight feeling assured that Coach Homer Han- ham's boys will pull a few more out of the trick bag which Hanham keeps close at hand much to the perplexity of the other city coaches. Girls' Gym Classes Divided Into Three Special Groups Although the girls in the leaders class have assisted the gym instructors Miss Catherine McClure and Miss Stella Cornwell they never had the chance to show their ability in teach- ing a class. Beginning the new semester the gym classes will be divided into three groups, modern dancing, folk dancing, and basketball. The leaders will take com- plete charge of teaching basketball while Miss Cornwall and Miss McClure teach modern dancing and folk danc- ing alternately. i. .

I do not want more taxes-nobody wants more taxes. But if it is a choice between keeping up our schools and paying our teachers and of refusing to levy more taxes, I am for the taxes. We have now pinched our schools and our needs are lower than they should go, and it is time that we made amends for our neglect. . Biology, Physical Education Groups Observe Hygiene Day The Biology and Physical Education departments have issued the following statements which explain their part in the Social Hygiene campaign being carried on throughout the entire coun- try. Social Hygiene day was observed Wednesday, February 3. The Biology department is cooper- ating with the health department in the work of Social Hygiene this week, be- lieving it to be that phase of education which aims for the best possible devel- opment of all aspects of life---the physi- cal, mental, and social, which are iniiu- enced by the traditions that effect the basic unit of society, the family. --Grace Cronk. In many of our classes from the ele- mentary grades on, we have discussed and learned many rules pertaining to Social Hygiene. The Physical Education activities provide an excellent place to put such knowledge into practice. --- Cathrine McClure and Stella Cornwell. - Amature Culprit Is Unable To Cover Harmful Evidence Spasmodic chokinghfeverish hands searching blindly for invisible hankies --about five hundred gasping students, red-nosed and crimson eyed--a freshman girl gulping the last precious bite of tear-splashed macaroni-This was the scrambled scene which occurred last Monday during fifth hour lunch. The culprit? We dare say he was an amateur for he was on the receiving end of the only damage done by his brain-child, the tear gas. And to top it all off, with tears streaming down his face, he failed to cover up the incrimi- nating evidence when he returned the unspilled portion of chemical to Charles Staneart, chemistry teacher.

Stanley Baldwin will go down in British history as the greatest states- man England ever had,', stated Miss Ellen Wilkinson, one of the major figures in the British labor movement and member of the British Parliament, when she spoke Saturday, January 30, before the Town Hall in the ballroom of the Commodore Perry Hotel. Although Baldwin is a political op- ponent of Miss Wilkinson, she praises him highly for his complete command and understanding ofthe English mind. On the other hand, Winston Churchill, who opposed Mr. Baldwin in his views of the Simpson affair, is thought by Miss Wilkinson to have neither com- prehension of the British nor American mind due to his British-American par- . o King Edward destroyed, by his actions, the whole base of the constitu- tional government of England. He' was pro-Nazi and publicly proclaimed the fact, commented Miss Wilkinson in reference to King Edwar,d's abdication. She referred to Wallis Simpson as God's gift to Stanley Baldwin. Y Lloyd George was described as a man who is still paying for his mistake about the Versailles treaty drawn up 20 years ago. , Anthony Eden is highly thought of by the speaker. Lady Astor is referred to as a witty and charming hostess. In conclusion of the talk, Miss Wilk- inson poined to France, England, the United States, and the Scandinavian countries as the fore-runners in democ- racy and the guarantee of world peace. QENGLISH TEACHER LAUDS THEATER Miss Edith Murphy Admires Helen Hayesg Likes Debates Patron of the arts, senior English teacher, and public speaking instructor, Miss Edith Murphy sends out her Irish smiles and receives in return the favor of her students. Questioned on the value of National Drama Week,iJanuary 31---February 6j she remarked, What is the value of any week set aside? It seems to be the American custom to celebrate 'weeks.' A sudden surge of enthusiasm is brought out, rather than a strong, steady cur- rent throughout the year. However, if weeks are to be dedicated, there is nothing worthier of the distinction than drama. Landing the legitimate theater, Miss Murphy believes that while the motion picture is good, it is only a substitute in the absence of the opportunity to patronize stage plays. The theatre, she states, gives an image of the play, the motion picture gives an image of an image. Likes Hayes Having seen Helen Hayes in Co- quettef' The Good Fairy, and Mary Of Scotland, she proclaims her as be- ing her favorite of stage stars.Reasons for choosing Helen Hayes are cited by Miss Murphy as the bodily and facial interpretations of Miss Hayes, and the beautiful, rich quality of her voice. Convinced that drama has a very real place in high school, this personable teacher believes that the writing of plays is as valuable as the writing of stories and that sooner one begins to write the better one can develop a technique and learns more of the struc- ture of dramatic writing: Through this medium, a person may become a better critic of the plays and motion pictures he sees. Admires Workers One finds in the business world that dramatics and debating are the only activities that seem to carry over from the school years. This is evidenced in the poise, the deepening and broaden- ing of the emotional nature, and the cooperation that is so necessary in this type of activity,', were her thoughts on this subject. She also appreciates the untiring work of those who work back- stacge, and so gives credit where credit 1S ue.

Some Good Ideas OMORROW a whole nation pauses in tribute to Abraham Lincoln. The exemplary qualities of this man who preserved our republic need no recounting here. All are acquainted with the long suffering, patience, and grim perseverance of this national hero. Tomorrow Woodward also observes the birthday of the 14th president. If all of us would apply these characteristics to our daily lives, we certainly could swell the honor rolls at the end of the year, . For Better Understanding N THIS busy world there inevitably is a contact between people in all walks of life. The world, in the last few years, has become small and more compact because of modern conditions. People of different religion, nationality, and race, work, play, and attend school side by side. For these reasons no one can allow some silly prejudices about relationship between the different races to remain. In the older days, race prejudice was very much in evidence, but in this swiftly moving, broad-minded world there is no room for it. Through the efforts of Principal C. C. LaRue, Woodward students. will have the opportunity to hear a speaker on race relationship. Mr. LaRue's action in attempting to better race relationship in Woodward should be commended. -- .Tli Attend Operetta EXT Tuesday Woodward's musically inclined will present the operetta, W. T. N. Tl, This presentation is being given through the joint sponsorship ofthe orchestra and glee. club. These musical interests are entirely voluntary on the part of the students participating. This ex- pression of true art on the part of the pupils should be rewarded by a large attendance at the operetta. 1-llii Dier Rheiders.

Woodward French students who have received letters from their French correspondents are hav- ing a lot of fun deciphering English as written by the Frenchfand the French probably think their letters are just asqueerj. For example, William Anspach's foreign friend thinks quite a lot of the cinema, but she remarks that in a picture with Claudette Colbert, Fred Mac Murray put too often his feet on the table, and wants to know if this is a custom in America. QSO that is how Americans impress the Frenchj. Betty Dickey's friend in Algiers used a very care- ful but stilted English. She says that the furred dates which she sent Betty are specialties of Algiers, a French colony. R1 th Hughes' unseen friend writes that she has just undergone an operation and has discontinued her schooling. The most numerous mistakes are made in verb tenses. This holds true in almost any language, but the French have so many different tenses and con- jugations that special care must be taken to use the right ones. In Our Library The Little Minister, by James M. Barrie, is by no means a newly published book, but it is new to our library. No doubt there are a good many stu- dents who have not read it, if so, we heartily recommend it The background for the story is Scotland--and Mr. Barrie's descriptions, characters, and dialect form such a clear word-picture that one gets the feeling in the atmosphere. The love story of Bobby, the light hearted, beautiful gypsy girl, and Gavin, the little minister, is one of the most charming and most interesting of its kind. Mr. Barrie's vein of humor adds :Havor to the story. Begin reading it---we'll wager that you wonit be able to stop until you have read the last word. Oh, For a Soap Box! If I were the principal, stated Earl Balsmeyer, senior, we would have beds for the hall patrol to sleepin. Each one would have a box of food under it so that the person on hall patrol would merely have to reach underneath and get some delicious food. N ext we would have a telephone at each student's chair so that he could phone his friends in the other classes and tell them what questions were on the test. - Another thing we would have would be moving floors. That is one side of the hall would move one way and the other side the other. Thus the students would save walking, and all they would have to do is step off the moving iioor into the door of their classroom. We would also have the much wanted elevators. I Students would be allowed to bum as many classes as they wished and could eat every hour of the day on any Hoor. But then. I'l1 never be principal so, little children, this plan will never be developed.

Sir Arthur Willet Gives View On Dictators Policies fEditor's note: Elvina Smorowski, sen- ior attended this lecture.J lf you want to get Hitler and Mus- solini into the right perspective, you must look upon them as products of their own countries and nationalities and not as creatures of new policies and systems of their own countries, stated Sir Arthur Willet, Great Britain's del- egate to the League of Nations, at the Town Hall meeting in the Commodore Perry Hotel ballroom Saturday, Febru- ar 6. XHitler is what we'd call a twentieth century democratic heir to Bismarck. Blood and iron was Bismarck's practice and preaching, and Hitler is, no doubt his probable successor. Mussolini is by far the biggest man in Europe today. He is a hard Italian busuness man, playing greatest possible cards with greatest possible success. Sir Willet stated that any statesman would willingly admit that Ethiopia was the greatest triumph since the war. The Italians felt very bitter about the situation. Mussolini went into it with- out the consent of his country, but came out on top. Europe is back in the old plight of Waring nationalities. Dictators have great iniiuence when it comes to peace or war. The question is, what are they going to do about it? To my estimation another war in Europe would just about do away with all civilization. I donit think, however, that Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini or any others are standing for war, concluded Sir Arthur Willet. t CYTHEREA ADORNS VALENTINES TODAY Thoughts Now Expressed In Verses Put Saint In Background 1 Do you remember your first valentine? Certainly, there must have been an im-t age of cupid stamped on it. 1 It may be well to recall that original-' ly this day is sacred to St. Valentine. However, the thoughts expressed in the 1 verses and illustrations on the love to-1 kens of today seem to overshadow allw hints of the saint. Instead, the immor- tal beauty of Cytherea fVenusl serves as the theme of these most pleasurable' messages of affection. Romances which are new and those which seem old as history itself, are preserved within the lines of a valen- tine. Too, sorrows ofa day gone by are often relived in the heart of a dreamer. Always through, these missives will be kept alive by the warmth and spar- kle of youth. - .M....

HERE have been many complaints about the lack of room on school buses which necessi- tates uncomfortable jamming each and every morning. The drivers also have been accused of fast and reckless driving. On the other side of the question students must understand that one driver is not entirely to blame for late arrival. In view of this fact, it is un- fair to blame him. If the accusations against the traction company are true there is room for improvement on the driver's part. However, if cooperation is to be ex- pected in this matter, students' conduct should im- prove. We might suggest that another bus be added for pupils' convenience, and that a more carefully planned and executed schedule be put into effect. Also Study The Youth VERY year we are confronted with the pleasant task of editorializing on George Washington. Not to repeat ourselves is indeed a task. Yet we believe that one phase of his life has not been mentioned lately. Everyone is acquainted with the genius of the man. Not so many are acquainted with the code of manners of the youth. When he was of high school age, he formulated rules of conduct that would have done a philosopher credit. This year instead of asking you to imitate the man, we advise you to read and study the conduct rules of the youth. The Last Time , EXT Thursday night the senior class will pre- sent its annual play. As in the past,a number of students have labored diligently to insure their classmates a good production. For the seniors it will be the last chance to attend their class play and the last opportunity to act in one. Appreciative underclassmen will attend the play. But the seniors should realize that it is vital that they have near one hundred per cent attendance. -1-M.-1.1.- Letters For Bowlers OODWARD last year added another sport, bowling. There are two teams representing this school in two leagues of the scholastic loop. The students competing have to pay their own fees for each game. Woodward's National league team is in first place. All other sports offer letters for deserving athletes. Letters might be awarded to the bowlers, or at least to players slected by a merit system. , acres and a mule for farm work. Some were too loyal to the families they were serving to leave. Many in their first exhuberation gathered up their families and sallied out into the World expecting to find food, Shel- ter, and clothing for the asking. These simple souls were soon disillusioned. A few mistaking freedom for license went on sustained carousals that caused a resentment and fear in the minds of some of the very people who wished their freedom. 'l hen with a swiftness that amazed the world, the rights ofthe Negro were declared formally in the thirteenth, fourteenth, and Hfteenth amendments to the Constitution. The period from 1863 1:01937 has not been all sun- shine for the Negro. He has fought against tremendous! odds. He has waged a good iight and slowly, but surely he is winning his way. His greatest weapon has been education. He has sought learning and knowledge not with the idea of equality with the white race, but as a means of bettering his own condition and making his life worth while. We set aside this past week as a time for recognizing his achievment and strengthening the tie of friendship that binds us all together in a common citizenship. We who believe in knowledge and superstition should help to further the friendly relationship of the two races. Thou Shalt Not Donit shoot spit balls at your enemiesg you might hit some tough guy.

Erratic psssing and poor work around the backboard was a major contribu- tion to the defeat.

Neither were league games. The Cubs met the Waite Papooses last Tuesday after school and conse- quently dropped their second game to that team which is leading the city frosh. These are their only two defeats. Friday night, after school, the fresh- men will engage the DeVilbiss team, about four hours before the Tiger varisity journeys here, in hopes that they will help to make a clean sweep of the games. ,,,......-.--- Tournament For Basketball Teams To Be March 1, 2, 4,5 With the city basketball chase near' ing a close, attention is turned to the district tournament which is to be held in Toledo University field house on March 1, 2,4, and 5. The teams entering are Woodward' DeVilbiss, Scott, Libbey, Central, Waite, Vocational, Point Place, Whitmer, Clay, Sylvania andPerrysburg. The date of the drawing is not yet known. Some of the rules which are being used in many state tournaments and will be used in this district are the sudden death rule, where the first team to score two points in an overtime ses- sion is the winner and the game is automatically over: and the ruling that any team entered can play only two ,names in one dav. . , , by A After holding the first place Scott team in the first half, the Bears were completely out classed in the final peri- od as they scored 3 points to Scott's 17. Barnette, Scott forward, was high scor- er of both teams with 11 points while Kaminski led Woodward with 3 points. The Waite game was a closely fought battle throughout as the score at the intermission was tied up at 13 points and the Indians held only a two point lead at the three quarter mark. ln the final minutes, Waite sank a field goal and a foul which proved to be enough to win the .game. Wright, Waite's tall center, headed the Indians with 13 points as Kaminski again led the Bears with 10 points, followed closely by Lein- inger with 8 points.

How ard Phipps After dropping a pair of games to Scott, the Woodward National league bowlers came back with a big 790 total to take the third, forming a first place tie between Woodward and Scott. Both teams have won twelve games and lost six. The American bowlers took two games from Whitmer raising their percentage to .444 with 8 wins and 10 losses. Carl Sitter again paced Woodward bowlers with games of 201, 168, and 188 to total 557, which was the three game high for the day. The 200 game was Sitteris second of the season in league bowling. Eugene Haddad took all honors in the American division with a high game of 167 and total of 428. Haddad has been a steady bowler during the three weeks he has been competing, averaging around 140. Walter Bojanowski does not bowl with the team any longer and will probably be replaced by Haddad.

Next Tuesday the Polar Bears travel to Vo- cational for a romp with the Craftsmen. The Bear quintet was partly respon- sible for knocking the Irish out of the saddle, and a win over DeVilbiss will probably tie things up tonight. In the first round meeting of the two teams, the Woodwardites were handicapped because of the Tigers' height and went down in a 33-29 defeat, but they hope to even accounts. Hanham's lads took an easy game from Vocational in their first encounter 29-19, Robens outscored Jim Durst, city leading scorer, in this encounter due to James Morells fine defensive work. The line-up of the two teams will be for DeVilbiss: forwards, Luther and Kearney, center, Haag, and guards, Welsh and Schaefer. For Vocational: forwards, Durst and Vorraberg center, Gilletteg and guards, I-Iackley and Shields. Hanhamis line-up for both tilts prob- ably will beg Robens and Greenwood at forwards, Bojwnowski at center, and Morel and Boykin at guards. BEARTACT 'P Q.

He received it from Mel J ankowski while playing intra-mural basketball after school last Tuesday night. Isn't it a peach? If the Polar Bears win tonightls game and both Scott and Libbey lose we will be sole possessor of fourth place while Central will again pass DeVi1lbiss. Skate Committees Chosen Arranging the publicity for the Girls' Athletic league skating party to be held Monday, April 5 in Memorial hall, are Pauline Yeagle, chairman, assisted by Jeanette Levine and Mary Jane Frankowski. The ticket committee is composed of Clyda Lee Ridenower and Celestine Smorowski. ,.,.,.,1..m--w French Students Change Newspapers' Print Form Members of the eighth hour French class are busy collecting items for their French paper, L, Aiglon, which is be- ing published in a new form.

The February 11 issue contains a short piece dedicated to Lincoln, along stamp collectors column, results of the French teamis game, bons-mots, news, and styles. ,.,1..m......--- Dope Corner Although Central has recently been stopped twice by city competition, they are still credited with enough potential power to down the Scott five. Libbey should continue its winning streak against the lowly Craftsmen. DeVilbiss, who is now leading the city scramble, should beat the Polar Bears although the Bears may pull another up- set on their home floor.

Jane Addams and Carrie Chap- man Catt taught me this and the lesson of independent women, stated this leading Japanese feminist. The Japanese government owns the radio which sends forth American jazz as well as the Japanese ballad. Films of Charlie Chaplin, Marlene Dietrich, and Greta Garbo are shown in the mod- ern theaterf' Children study the 4,000 characters in the Japanese alphabet, but in the middle school begin the study of Eng- lish, the Baroness concluded. George Washingtcrfs Birth To Be Observed By Vacation How are your nerves? If not, they should be. Anywhy. Because next Mon- day is Georgie's birthday, silent halls will welcome anyone who comes prowl- ing between 8:30 a. m. and 2:30 p. m. Just think! One whole day without classes, one whole evening without homework, and one blessed relief from blufiing answers to teachers presump- tuous questions.

War, Crime Are Subjects Editors note: The following are resumes of the Progressive Open Forum and Town Hall lectures attended by Jack West and William Loerke, rs- spectively. James M. Hepborn, America's fore- most criminologist, lectured on Crime and Criminals before a Town Hall audience last Saturday. The United States, as in other things, leads the world in crime. There is twice as much crime in Cook county, Chicago, as there is in the whole dominion of Canada. All European penologists are agreed that we have the most ineffi- cient, corrupt, and lax Department of Justice the world has ever seen. The crooks of this country passed a higher mentality test than did the draft army of the United States, the guards and wardens of the prisons. A criminal has only about one chance in ten of ever being caught. Crime will decrease in mr ch the same ratio as the efficiency of the Department of Justice increases. Make arrests more certain. Make convictions absolute and final. Make trials more prompt. Give the criminal correct treatment after con- Of Last Week's Lectures viction always keeping in mind safety to society. I will not say that the World War ended in 1917, but that there was a chronic condition of war for the period of years following, stated Dr. Anna Louise Strong, who recently returned from Spain, at the Progressive Open Forum in the Robinson Junior high school auditorium, Saturday, February 13. If there be another World War, we will not be able to stay out of it. We are a part of the indivisible world and, whether we like it or not, in a year or two we would be drawn into it. Dr. Strong remarked, The whole sit- uation in Europe looks very dark unless Germany and Italy are checked in Spain. In relation to her topic, Is a New World War Inevitablef' Dr. Strong concluded, Although a World War is likely, it could be avoided if enough brains in enough countries were em- ployed in seeing what could be done to keep war out of the world .

Dr. William Benet Speaks Poetry is the shortest distance be- tween two points and is a living thing, stated Dr. William Benet before a large Town Hall audience last Saturday at the Commodore Perry Hotel. His. talk centered largely on some of his college classmates who were also great poets. Richard Hoffey, one of his classmates, wrote, oflyric and drama poetry, Will- iam Moolrly wrote about modern in- dustrialism, Sam Byrd wrote ruggedly of the middle west, Linsey wrote folk poetry.. He2 also spoke of his younger brother, who had written poetry since childhood. One of his brother's best selections is the famous John Brown's 1'x..J-.v . l 011 Poetry At Town Hall During the world war there was very little poetry, he said. There was some poetry protesting against war. He stated also that free verse was an old type of poetry, not new, and that he didn't approve of it because you had to make your own rules. Poets of his time believe in narrative verse. Dr. William Benet does not consider himself a modern poet. His best form of poetry is the ballad. Some of the Doctor's poems are, The Whalef' Nod Blake, i'The Woodcut- ter 's Wife,', and The Falconer of God. The Falconer of Godn was one of his earlier poems, and the Woodcutter's Xlfifev concerns his late wife, Eleanor E.

Prof. Parks Advises Pupils On Choosing Life Occupation At some time in life, one must choose a vocation. He selects it to live, to be happy, and to satisfy human wants? declared Professor Donald Parks, per- sonnel director at the University Hof Toledo, ashe addressed the junior and senior boys last week in the auditorium. Professor Parks stated that with this rapid and changing world one must choose under the advice of someone knowing the fields of occupation. In a recent college survey, 33 percent of the students entered careers they are -not fitted for and 95 percent entered an over-crowded profession. f To select a vocation you should find all you can about yourself and study. the various occupational fields in the world. A vocation should be studied from six points of view, namely: psy- chological, moral, economic, social, men- tal, and physical, declared the speaker. One must remember that the world does not owe one a living, concluded YW' I ll THE WOODWARD TATTLER Published and Printed Every School Week by the X Pupils of Woodward High School.

Certainly there is no reason to be bashful, for you should know that Woodward females are not the ferocious biting type. Then is negligence the answer? You must bear in mind the tact that it takes the average young lady an absurdly long time to make up her mind, her face and her costume. To please a lady you must give her plenty of time. Why not take the fateful step today? lf the one and only says, No, there are other fishettes in the sea who would be only too glad to help you make her regret her answer. One Hundred Percent NCE MORE the call goes out for Red Cross funds. Surely with such a small fee required to join the organization, almost every student should become a member. If you can, why not pay the membership fee for your classmate who would not otherwise be able to join. Let's make Woodward one hundred percent strong! f. Aid Vital Project T IS very apparent that Woodward students en- joy the frequent movies shown in the auditorium. A full house is the usual attendance. So all have, at one time or another, seen one of these movies. Needless to say, all are familiar with existing conditions, with only one movie projector. Just as the hero arrives to battle with the villain, off goes the film, and an intolerable space of about three minutes is wasted. This occurrence need happen no more. The Quill and Dagger Literary society is sponsoring the raf- fle of a radio to raise money for the new projector. With two machines, the movie can be shown con- tinually without an interruption. Woodward stu- dents should back this project one hundred percent in order to push it over the top. . Support Concert EXT WEDNESDAY evening, the Woodward orchestra will present its annual concert. The members of this organization have been look- ing forward to this occasion when they can display their talent to their parents and music lovers of Woodward. Reduction ofthe usual price of 25 cents to 15 cents should enable more students to attend. They would be greatly encouraged by a large and appreciative audience. Make it a point to reserve next Wednesday night for this aH'air, and an enjoyable evening will be yours.

All the rest have 31 excepting February which has 28, and leap year makes it 29. February, that short month so filled with significant days. There are Lincoln's and Washington's birthdays, which shorten the school month to 18 days 1 and for your information, you'll have to do 1 5-18 more work each day than in any other monthl But don't let it worry you because March will be here just that much sooner, and there'll be a nicespring holiday to look forward to.

Friday morning two weeks ago any Woodward student standing on Lagrange would probably have had an acute case of apoplexy, for speeding down the street was a motorcycle guided by one of our office girls to whom the machine shop teacher was hanging for dear life. It seems that the teacher had bet the oiiice girls 50c that she wouldn't dare take him for a ride. She took him.

LOLAR BEARS LICK DeV1LBISS CAGERS tear Players Hold Tigers To Three Fouls In First Half ...-.-11 In the last few minutes of play, the ,oodward Bears turned back the De- ilbiss Tigers, last Friday in the North nderis gym by the heart-breaking score f 17-16. The Bear offense broke in the first few econds of play and had the Tigers oii' heir feet the whole first half. The only allies the Black and Orange quintet ould ring up were three fouls. When he intermission gun went off, the score tood 10-3. The DeVilbiss five came back in the econd half and the tall boy, Kearney, 'th the help of Gene Shaeffer, tighten- d up the score. DeVilbiss held the lead 'n the last five minutes of play with a ne point advantage 16-15. Due to some ne strategy, Woodward got the next ip-oii' and Bojanowski sank the shot which decided the game. Kearney and Greenwood led their respective teams in scoring with six points apiece. The scoring stood as follows: Woodward G. F. T. DeVilbiss G. F. T.

Coach Homer Hanham had a chance to see what the 1937-38 squad might be expected to do in league competition as he used every player on his squad in- cluding six juniors and one sophomore. The Bears with Hoskins and J aswiecki at forwards, Bojanowski at center, and Morel and Rapp at guards got away to' a slow start and led by a five point mar- gin at the quarter. Then with Morel connecting on four fielders and Boja- nowski and Hoskins contributing Wood- ward took 13-5 lead. In the second half Al Greenwood found the bucket and the Polar Bears increased their margin to the 32-12 final count. Jim Durst, city scoring champ, could add but six points against the close defensive play of Jim Morel and Bob Stack. Morel and Greenwood led the Bears with 10 and nine points respec- tiel y.

The DeVilbiss Tigers are favored to beat the Scott Bulldogs while, in the Waite-Central contest, the Irish cagers should win over the Indians by a close margin. NATIONAL BOWLERS WIN FROM WHITMER Amercian League Players Lose To Vocational, S. Mista, High The Woodward National League bowling team took two out of three games from Whitmer, while the Amer- icans dropped all three to a strong Voca- tional team last Saturday morning at the Auditorium alleys. High man in the American division was Stanley Mista with a total of 429 and single game of 154. Dulgewicz led the Nationals with games of 166-180-146 to total 492. Several substitutions were made in the American league: Diebel replaced Ardner in the second game and Jan- kowski bowled in Diebel's place in the third game. Mista will probably bowl in place of J ankowski tomorrow morning. Howard Phipps, coach of the teams, is keeping a detailed record of each boy's bowling.

The teams which are entered in the tournament are: Class A, Woodward, Vocational, DeVilbiss, Scott, Libbey, Central, Waite, Point Place, Whitmer, Clay, Sylvania, Perrysburg, and Ross- ford: teams entered in the Class B section to be played tonight and to- morrow are: Maumee, Holland, Water- ville, Whitehouse, and Montclova. Drawings for the Class A tournament were held last Wednesday night at the Toledo University coffee house. Coach Homer Hanham represented Wood- ward. Because the games will be played ofn the large University iioor, the Tigers and the Bears will hold a slight advan- tage over the other city squads for tlxeir home iioors are the largest in the ci y. , Although the Irish are the city champions and will enter the tourney a slight favorite, they will probably be hard pressed for their zone defense is extremely hard to use on a large fioor, especially when they have played most of their games in small gyms.

OPERATION FAILS TO STOP ATHLETE Bob Stack Stars On Court Team, To Play With Grid Squad What's the matter with the basket ball team? Why, it doesn't play to' getherf' remarked Bob Stack, one of Woodward's stellar guards, as soon as they do we will begin to win games. Bob was born in Toledo's north end January 18, 1918 and he has honored this city with his presence ever since that date. He began his basketball career at Sl. Francis De Sales school and at the Toledo News Boys. This is his third ycar on Woodward's basket' ball and football teams. Although he was rushed to St. Vincent's hospital for an appendicitis operation at the begin- ning of the football season, Bob is play- ing a fine brand of basketball for Coach Hanham. Why next year's football team is going to take first place of course, he confidently stated. The same thing goes for thc basketball team if they cooperate. Robert intends to further his educa- tion and his athletic career at some college, probably Toledo University, as soon as he graduates from Woodward. Because of the age limit placed on city athletes, Stack will be ineligible for league play the second semester of next year. It is obvious that this will be a big loss to the basketball team for Bob seems to be the fighting spirit of the team as he was on the football team, be- cause Bob throws himself into the game as only one who really loves it can.

Letter To The Editor To the Editor: Why not give us the same chance as other schools are given and hold Gay- ety Nite for two evenings instead of one as was done last year? Holding the carnival for two nights will bring in more money and eliminate crowding the halls. As it was last year, many of the dis- plays weren't seen by the people. With two nights for this affair everyone would see them. Lets us have this opportunity and more people will come. A Woodward Student.

Faculty Advisers ...... - .............. .. ............ ....... Q Decide Early ORE THAN one third of the college graduates of the country enter professions for which they are not fitted. If college alumni, whose intelligence has been greatly increased, cannot select their life's work wisely, how much less can high school graduates, who do not intend to further their education, chose intelligently? The Senior Hi-Y, recognizing this problem, annu- ally holds vocational guidance meetings especially to aid junior and senior boys in choosing their occu- pations. Prominent members of the various pro- fessions deliver informative talks. Let's have every junior boy attend these meetings and every senior sign for an interview. Why Lose Now? PORTSMANSHIP on the part of both Libbey and Woodward cheering sections was lacking in the overtime period when the players on both teams were shooting fouls. There was loud booing and yelling. We know that we greatly de- sire to win the sportsmanship trophy but with such conduct as was exhibited at our last game of the season in the city-league how can this be expected? i. l.l Killing Two Birds NEW phase of educational high school enter- tainment has begun here with the dramatiza- tion of As You Like It, via radio. After considerable effort on the part of the faculty for more educational entertainment here, we are now having radio dramatizations. More of these programs brought to the students would help very much in their efforts to read Shake spearian plays. We Would Lose O BREAK the tediumof regular classwork and to develop organizing ability among students was the purpose for the establishment of third hour. During this period through extra- curricular activi- ties, capabilities are developed which could never be taught in classrooms. The cultural and athletic enrichments are invaluable. Because of the liberal restrictions placed on stu- dents during the conference hour, pupils have gradually taken advantage of their opportunities and have created a deplorable condition. In order to alleviate this state principal C. C. La- Rue has taken various steps. Lately the student patrol third hour has been replaced by a faculty committee. Even more recently there has been talk of eliminating third hour altogether. The active students of Woodward should not tolerate this. They are allowed self-government. They must increase the efliciency of their organ- ization if they desire to refrain from lapsing back into the school grind of yesteryear. by C. C. LaRue ' Dr. Gary Meyers writing in the Toledo Blade of February 24 decries the fact that .1 after a child enters high school, he no longer wishes his parents to visit his school. Several reasons may be stated why this 1 is so, but the chiefone is that boys feel that - . I, the beginning of high school is incident to A taking the first step in manhood. They are on their own. They usually have changed school buildings. It is in a measure an adventure into which father and mother did not enter. Perhaps the girls do not have such decided opinions about the change from grade school into high school, but the majority of them do feel that their parents can no longer follow them. We agree with the good Doctor this is a bad thing for everyone, but not very much can be done about it. Here at Woodward parents are welcome at all times but in the nine years that the school has been located here, probably not ninety parents have visited the school out of a feeling of just visiting. They come when Johnny or Mary are in difficulty of some kind but that is all. The parent-teacher organization has attempted to bridge the gap, but in the hurry and bustle of the modern world, the modern parent and also the modern teacher feels they have no time for this. This is a situation that in the majority of cases al- ways has been met by the high schools. Perhaps it has not been met adequately, but we have done our best to keep the father and mother informed about the pro- gress of their sons and daughters in school.

TIED FOR LOOP LEAD American Rollers Rise To Fifth Placeg Sitter Secures 225 Although there were several upsets in both leagues of the Blade High School Bowling conference last Satur- day morning at the Auditorium alleys, the leadership remained unchanged in both divisions. Woodward and Scott are still tied for the top spot in the National league, haviug won 18 games and lost 9 for a 667 percentage. Wood- ward's Americans remain in lifth place with 11 wins and 16 losses. Since both the Scott and Woodward National teams dropped two games, neither team has taken undisputed pos- session of first place. The Nationals dropped the first and third games to Central and took the second game with a 790 total. Carl Sitter turned in a big 225 game which was the second best game of the day. Woodward's Americans knocked the Libbey five out of its second place spot by taking two out of the three games. S. Mista led the Americans with games of 167, 150, and 146 to total 463.

D.to a basketball game to be held conference hour, March 22, in the gym. The price of admission will be five cents to any one who wishes to come. TRA Last Year's Varsity Squad To Compose Most Of Team .....-i.- Old man weather is all that is hold- ing up the starting of this year's spring football practice. Coach Art Smith stat- ed that practice would get underway as soon as the field was in fairly good con- dition. Each school is allowed only four weeks for practising and therefore the schools like to make the most of this short time. Coach Smith will be without the aid of Dave McMurray because of his re- cent appointment as track coach. The players will be largely those who were on last year's varsity squad but there will be a few coming up from the lightweight team. The backfield prospects are Banasiak, Boykin, Bialorucki, Brubaker, Colby, Davis, Gociniak, Hoskins, Langlois, Mizelle, Morel, Szelagowski, and Stack. Greenwood, Wichowski, Stoykoff, Na- varre, Balish, T. Nowak, Klock, D.No- wak, Kuzma, Degnan Haffelder, Hanter, Plush, Bankey, and Pierron are the line candidates. ..l.1- Malaska Outpoints Rassie After losing his last bout, Benny Malaska, former Woodward athlete, outpointed Don Rassie of Michigan last Monday evening in the Toledo Univer- sity field house. ,lmlil-- April Focl's Day Party Set For March 25 By Art Klan An April Fool's Day party for Art Klan members and their guests is being planned for March 25, Thursday, from 7 to 10 at the Riverside Shelter house in place of the St. Patrick's Day party which was intended formerly.

Society To Raffle Radio To Purchase Movie Machine Hoping to eliminate the loss of much valuable school time, during moving picture shows, the Quill and Dagger Literary Society are sponsoring a rafHe on a Silvertone radio, the proceeds will be used to buy another moving picture projector which will eliminate the lost time between reels. The tickets sell for ten cents a piece or three for a quarter. Upon the pur- chase of a ticket, the salesman keeps the stub which he places in a box in Dave McMurray's roomg the box willbe taken down to the auditorium for the drawing to be held there, April 12, con- ference hour. Everybody in the school, including Q. D. members, are eligible to win the radio. Tickets may be purchased from any member of the club. Dave McMurray Whips With the closing of the basketball season, Dave McMurray, reserve bas- ketball coach and assistant football coach, was appointed head track coach succeeding Art Smith. McMurray began immediately after his appointment to whip the thinclads into shape.He outlined arigorous sched- ule that all who have any hopes of fol- lowing the team must follow. Upon re- porting each night, the boys work up a good sweat by running around the halls practicing stride, starting, and a strong finish. The jumpers must skip rope, and all tracksters work out on the mat and parallel bars. Although he has had a good turn out each night and they are all working Track Squad Into Shape hard, Coach McMurray belives that the Bears are heading for another unsuc- cessful season unless some ofthe more experienced boys, who have not shown up, cooperate with the new coach by turning out in time to be able to com- pete in the first meet this spring. Woodward has only schedule dual meets with the other high schools of the city, although they will compete in the city meet May 15, and the District meet, May 21-22. The Polar Bears are not expected to enter any special meets such as the Mansfield, Ohio Wesleyan, and State Meets unless the team has a good season necessitates the full co- operation of the student body and those ex erienced lads who have n P ' ot . shown up for practice. L Tattler To Give Yearbook To Pupils Winning Foul Shooting For the seventh consecutive year, the Woodward 'Tattler will present a Saga to each of the winners in Annual Foul Shooting Contest. As in previous years there are two groups, one composed of girls and the other of boys, with everyone but mem- bers of the Tattler staff eligible for com- petition. The boys will run off their section soon in the gym under the supervision of Art Smith, gym instructor. In case the two highest scorers should tie another twenty f0uls will be shot. Last year Julian Jordan and Wilma Cole took the awards. This time Julian, now a Tattler member, will be ineligible but Wilma Cole is again entered and is the girls' leading scorer. Time is extended until next Tuesday when the winner will be determined. Baseball Prospects Report, Only FourlRegulars Are Back Since spring is just around the corner, Leo Robie, baseball coach, called the Hrst meeting of all prospects for the Bears nine today.

Bill has been an ardent French stu- dent for three years and holds the posi- tion of vice president in the French club. The success of last year's Co-Ed Prom was attained through his supervision.

It was decided at the meeting, after an open discussion, that a committee, made up of the presidents of all the student councils should meet next Tuesday, March 16, at DeVilbiss for drawing up the foundations and consti- tution for an intra-city council. Each school will be allowed to send from one to nine members to this council afterit is established. All schools represented at the tea form of student council and anticipated following it.

AM gg p SCOTT INSTRUCTOR DISPLAYS FASHIONS Up To Date Hillbilly Styles Shown To Students Here, Mar. 17 Coats, dresses, and sweaters made from tiny scraps of material, thread, and yarn by Arkansas mountaineers, yet surprisingly attractive, were dis- played by Miss Irene O'Brien, Junior Red Cross adviser at Scott, when she spoke before the service clubs of Wood- ward, last Wednesday, March 17, con- ference hour in the auditorium. Telling unusual stories of the care and patience which these Ozark hill- billies' spend on making dresses and clothing of eighteen or more pieces, Miss O'Brien said that Mrs. Guilbeau, a Louisiana woman, has built a log school in Delaney, Arkansas, where she is de- voting her life to help instruct and edu- cate these people, using materials sent to her from people in the United States. After having seen handkerchiefs made from Hour sacks, feathers dyed with crepe paper, baby shoes out of old felt hats, and a pin cushion mounted on a wasp's nest, one could hardly go away not feeling that the grand old American spirit still exists and as the Scott organ- izer said, People are still making some- thing out of nothing. A plea is being made by Mrs. Mary O'Brien, Woodward adviser, for any scraps or patches of material, string, yarn and buttons so that the Woodward students may assist Mrs. Guilbeau in her work. Material may be brought to Mrs. O'Brien in room 314. Ojibway Indian Guide Spoke To Hi-Y Pupils Last Tuesday Jim Friday, Ojibway Indian guide from Lake Tomaugamer situated in a National Preserve 300 miles north of Toronto, spoke to the Junior and Senior Hi-Y clubs last Tuesday evening about outdoor and Indian life. Owner of a camp on the lake, Jim takes groups of boys on extended canoe trips through virgin forest lands and wild, uninhabited regions. Describing Indian methods of hunting, fishing, and living, he proved an interesting speaker. .lail-.-.

Newswriting Class Visits Woodshop Group At Work China closets, desks, occasional and end tables, smoking stands and chests greeted the eyes of the group of the seventh hour newswriting students who visited the Woodshop last Wednesday. These different articles of furniture are being made by boys in S. B. Crouse's classes. The students were all busy, sawing, sandpapering, drawing plans and varnishing. Most of the articles were made from either willows or gum wood. When asked for whom they were making these pieces of furniture, most of the boys replied that it was either for their mothers or sisters. Pieces worthy of special notice are a boat, being constructed by John Plan- iski, and an inlaid table top, which Panl Taylor is making.

Crouse, thanking his classes for their cooperation in construc- ting a magazine rack, which is to be used in the Board of Education administra- tion building. Dear S. B.: On behalf of the other people in the administration building who will use the magazine rack, I express our sin- cere gratitude to you and the boys for the willing and edicient manner in which you did the work. It fits the required space and matches the other woodwork perfectly. I can honestly say that we could not have found as satisfactory a piece of furni- ture on the market. It is an outstand- ing example of the high quality of workmanship which I know character- izes all the work done in your depart- ment. The rack is a real credit to the Woodshop of Woodward High School. Please extend our appreciation to your boys and accept your personal share for the guidance and cooperation shown by you. Most sincerely, V. K. Alberstett Henry Gerber Left Germany At 18, Has Flower Garden Mr. Gerber Henry Gerber, teacher of long stand- ing at Woodward who instructs five classes in business arithmetic, is com- plebing his forty-fifth year of teaching in Toledo grade and high schools. Mr. Gerber, perhaps the only teacher in Woodward with such a number of years of teaching to his record, is greatly interested in gardening and has taken it up as a hobby. He keeps a fiower gar- den in the yard of his home. Mr. Gerber taught four years of ele- mentary school before teaching high school classes. In my years of instructing, the has taught all the high school gradesj stated this teacher of almost two gen- erations, I have found no change in the attitude of my pupilsf' This instructor obtained his educa- tion for teaching in the Teachers Sem- inary in Germany, at Wartburg College in Iowa, and old Toledo University. Mr. Gerber left Germany at the age of 18 and so was unable to teach there. He has taught German, business arith- metic and bookeeping at Scott, Waite, and Woodward. Puppet Play, 'Cinderella' Presented For Students Another showing of the puppet play Cinderella was presented last Tuesday to a group of eighth grade pupils from Wayne school, Vocational, and to the parents of the participants. - An unexpected feature of the program was the singing of several French songs by Jane Ann Curtis, the ive-year old niece of Miss Adrienne C. Curtis. The tiny songstress also led the audience in singing Alouette. Among the comments made after the program were some enthusiastic state- ments by Margaret Pankotay, Roseland ArdE, and Kathleen Ames, who have charge of two puppet shows to be pre- sented by Vocational in the near future. . Paul Zipfel is supervising the puppet work at Woodward. Miss Curtis is adviser of the French group. Last Dance Class The last Senior Prom dancing class will be held Monday, March 22, in the girls' gym. This will complete the dancing class of seven lessons offered by the seniors.

It is no easy job either to do what our custodians corps of workers are accomplishing. So if you are tempted at some time to criticize their work, stop and think of yourself picking up after almost two thousand lively young people. - Special For Seniors HE PROM committee has asked that all those people who signed petitions pay for their tickets if possible before Tuesday, March 23. With spring vacation coming as it does, there i-s only one school week before the dance. In previous years, some little trouble has been created over non-payment of tickets. If they remem- ber that the petitions are legal contracts, they can make this years's prom a success without the curse of bill-collecting. Another point which has been brought to the seniors, notice is that so few people have ordered announcements. These folders are regarded as a necessary part of graduation from high school. Consideration for the committee in charge might be shown if everyone would observe the slogan, Order now and avoid the rush. N o Kick Coming HIS year again, through the Tattler, all under- classmen will have an opportunity to name their choice for the Tattler Achievement Cup. Their votes will be turned over to Principal LaRue and the committee who will use them as a basis for their selection. This plan should do away with the bickerings and murmurings of former years. Students who donit vote have absolutely no excuse for 'kickingi afterwards. The opportunity is there. Use it. Induction Ceremonies T A QUIET but impressive ceremony, the Wood- ward Chapter of National Honor Society in- ducted twenty-six juniors into its ranks. Perhaps there are students at this school who do not know the purpose of the Honor Society. The constitution of the local chapter reads, The object of th1s chapter shall be to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to encourage the developement of character in pupils of Wood- ward High School .... i' The four purposes outlined above directly affect only members of the organization. But indirectly, the whole school is benefitted. For by offering as re- ward for the various merits mentioned, membership in the group, an incentive is provided for under- classmen. Congratulations new and old members alike! Today completes the last school day of Winter. In two or three days thelsun will i be directly over the equator making, for a short time, the days and nights of equal f , 5 ! length From now on the sunshine and JC consequent warmth will exceed the dark- . , ness and cold. Birds are returning from ' ' the South. The grass will soon begin to turn green, the trees to bud. All nature shakes off the effects of the long winter, for it is spring again. It is significant that we have in this season the story of the crucifixion of Christ. The anniversary of the day of his resurrection is celebrated on the first Sunday in the first full moon after the sun crosses the equator. This Sunday is Easter. The death of Christ, his burial, and resurrection gave proof to mankind that he, too, will live after death. This is symbolized by the quickening of all nature in the Springtime.

Well, it's a long story--but interesting. It seems that the famous Dorothy Dix wrote an article advising girls to notice men's ties in order to tell what kind of husbands they will make. A dark blue tie such as Dan Krzyzaniak usually wears indi- cates the steady dependable type. The flirtatious, straying kind can be found under a red tie as bright as George Spaulding's. But the kind of a man who wears a light blue tie, says Miss Dix, will probably settle down and raise a family of four or five children. It was this light blue fact that caused all the trouble. The aforementioned Mahlon unsuspectingly wore a light blue tie soon after the article appeared and was forced to put the oifending article in his pocket under a bombardment of teasings. Well, to top it all off, who should come to school on that day but the photo- grapher to take a picture of the Junior class cabinet. Poor Mahlon! His face was as red as Edward Krell's shirt when the picture was taken--minus his light blue tie. And so, even today, you'll see Mahlon without a tie. Just ask him why!

A Stevens, just recently obtained by Woodward's l' brary, is highly recommended for students takin botany or who are interested in iiowers. For th 'drst time, it has been possible to assemble in on volume accurately colored pictures of every impor tant garden plant: in some cases, covering several varieties of the same flower. These pictures are widely varied and beautifully executed. The accom- panying text gives as briefly as possible a descrip- tion of each plant, the family it represents, an what other iiowers of the same type may be mell With. Effort is also made to give brief cultural direc- tions. Garden Flowers in Color is intented to b an actual primer, or guidebook, for the beginner ai well as a book of reference for the advanced gal-. dener. It consists of 320 pages with more than 450 colored illustration: at least one picture on every page, and frequently more. Never before have so many useful and accurate photographs of flowers been gathered together into one volume. eat Vocational Three Games To Break Up Deadlock With Bulldogs While the Woodward National league owlers were sweeping three games rom Vocational last Saturday morning t the Auditorium alleys, the Scott uintet dropped its first game to entral. This defeat gave the Wood- ard five the necessary game to break he tie between themselves and Scott nd take undisputed possession of the lead in the National division of the Blade High School bowling conference. Woodward recorded games of 755, 786, and 805 to total 2,346. To compare the totals, Scott was but a few pins behind with counts of 711, 855, and 755 to total 2,321, a difference of 25 pins. Kime Rolls 514 Cliford Kime rolled his first 200 game in the league, passing that mark by one pin. Karl Sitter bowled an even 200 game. Dlugiewicz recorded a total of 478 from games of 153, 178, and 147, while Frank Scott was close upon him with a 469 total. Boldt who started was replaced in the second game by Ott who finished up with two games of 153 each. Woodward's Nationals hold first place with 21 games won and 9 lost for rn even .700 percentage. Scott dropped into the second spot with 20 wins and 10 losses for a .667 percentage. The Vocational five remains in last place having dropped 22 out of 30 games. Americans Lose The Americans lost all three games to the Waite team, failing to break 700 in any game. The Waite five rolled games of 717, 781, and 688 to Woodward's 637, 656, and 611. Having won 11 games and lost 19 for a 367 percentage, the Americans are in seventh place, while Whitmer holds the last spot with 25 defeats out of its 30 games.

Eachclasshas chosen a captain who will manage all of the boys in his class who are out for track. He will give each one a regular schedule to follow out which will get them into shape for the meet. The captains are freshman, Art Hertzech, sophomores Jim Brubaker, juniors,Nick Verano, and seniors, Stan Eckler. The new coach and the students will be able to make a fair estimate of what is to be expected of the current crop of thin clads as a result of this competi- tion. Because the meet is being played on the third fioor and in the boys' gym, there will be only seven events run off. They are as follows: the sgeventy-five yard dash, sixty yard high and low hurdles, eight hundred and eighty yard run, a mile relay, high jump, and the shot put. Anyone and everyone in the school is invited to witness the meet, the first one of its kind this year.

Eighty Students Turn Out For Baseball, In the biggest athletic turnout of the year, 80 aspiring lads attended the base-1 ball meeting last Monday, third hour in 305. With this many turning out, Leo Robie should be able to pick a top notch nine. Coach Robie expects to Start practice as soon as weather clears, and the in- side pitchers and catchers practice will begin as soon as the boys' gym permits., This will be Mr. Robie's first year as baseball coach. Last year Lincoln Clark piloted the lads, and although it was the Hrst team in several years to repre- sent Woodward on the diamond, they stood high in the city league. The four regulars back from last year, J ohny Golembiewski, Joe Mista, Chuck Hoskins, and Ervin Klocko,will be the foundation of the year's team. Reserves Topple Freshmen In Annual Basketball Tiit The Woodward reserve team proved its supremacy over the freshman squad by defeating the first year team 25 to 13 in a slow, unexciting game. The game started oii' evenly but the reserves managed to hold a one point lead at the half mark.

The combination desk-radio being railied by the Quill and Dagger Literary society was on exhibition last week. Three Soph Students Are Having Serious Operations The year of 1937 seems to have brought bad luck on the sophomores all at one time. Three of Woodward's sophomore boys are in hospitals under- going serious operations. The aiiiicted are Dan Barczak, Verne Kramer, and- Alfred Stucker. Juniors Expected To Uphold All High Standards Of Group I feel that the juniors which we shall induct this year will be capable of up- holding the high standards ofthe Honor society, graciously stated Sylvia Kisiel, senior co-chairman of the committee in charge of the annual induction ceremo- nies at whichjuniors will be admitted into the Honor society. Sylvia, besides being a member of this society, also fullfills the position of pres- ident of the Municipal club, is an active member of the Periclean Literary society and is bookkeeper of the Saga Staff .... .. This quiet, engaging miss reveals that her favorite hobby is reading good books ..... and that she has recently begun to take lessons on the pianp. As for ambitions, she hopes to have a place in the business world and for this she is preparing. Laughingly sur- prising her interviewer with, And my favorite color is green, she revealed her knowledge of interviews ...... also in- dicating her manner of work---prepared- ness. Concluding, Sylvia explained, We of the Honor society wish to get Woodward students interested in scholarship, lead- ership, and citzenshipf' -l....- .. Editors Error Due to an error, Doris Rokicki's name was omitted from the Honor Roll pub- lished recently. Q.D. Cagers To Meet Hi-Y Team Monday Third Hour Woodward's Q.D and Hi-Y clubs clash in their annual basketball tilt in the boys' gym Monday, third hour. The pro- ceeds of the game will be used for the intra-mural fund. Last year the Hi-Y team toppled the Quill and Daggers but the Q.D's appear to be the more powerful of the two at this time. In the football game between the two organizations, the Q.D's came out on top and they will attempt a clean sweep of the athletic encounters while the Hi-Y will endeavor to avenge the defeat. Professor Parks Gives Talk At Honor Society Induction Speaking at the National Honor so- ciety induction held in the auditorium third hour today was Professor Donald S. Parks of Toledo University.

The sophomore class is leading the other classes, the rank of admiral being attained by Virginia Carpenter. In sec- ond place is the freshman group, with Genevieve Skryzpniak leading as a com- mander. The juniors follow with Bernice Cassis, commodore. Seniors are last, having Joe Sterling as their highest seller, commander. The ten highest home room sellers are as follows, according to percentg Miss A.

The number of students in each rank are: one admiral, one commodoreg three commanders,53 lieutenants: 25 ensigns, 82 boatswains, and 309 seamen. 1 Dancing Class Slips Given Out To Check Attendance Because it has been difficult for teach' ers to check up on those who attend the Senior Prom dancing classes, a new plan has been adopted. Each student re- ceives a slip of paper on which is typed Dancing Class and the date. Pupils should hold these tickets as they will be collected by the homeroom teachers the day after each clsss to check the previous day's attendance. . Tattler Staff Forms Two Groups for Selling Tickets Members of the Tattler Staff, in or- der to incite the students to sell more tickets, have been divided into two bodies. At the head of one group is Doris Shortt, and the captain of the other is William Loerke. These two squads will have a ticket selling con- test with the losers sponsoring a party for the winners. Miller Appoints 40 Junior, Senior Girls For Soliciting About forty senior and junior girls were appointed by Miss Amie Miller, junior and senior girls, dean, to act as solicitors for Gayety Nite contribu- tions. Each girl is being givena sheet of instructions and a letter from Principal LaRue to aid them in her soliciting. Band Prepares Overture For Annual May Festival The band, under the direction of Guy V.

City Manager Edy Offers Advice On Vocations In choosing a career one should select one that is honorable, construc- tive and helpful, as well as one that will bring a fair income and enjoyment, stated John N. Edy, city manager, as he addressed the junior and senior boys in room 216. The city executive was the last speaker in this series of H1-Y vo- cational guidance programs. I I The city manager disclosed that it is a problem to make people understand the city manager type of government. Contrary to the belief of the people the mayor is an important oHicer in the city manager goverment. He acts as the spokesman of the government to the people and interprets public opinion to the manager. A public office holder, such as a city manager, is denied long tenure of oiiice, permanent home-making and friendship but has the advantage of see- ing new people, making new acquaint- ances and meeting up with new prob- lems. He often grows unpopular with the people because of his policies, con- tinued Mr. Edy. Anyone expecting to enter the field of public management should make a study of the various types of governments throughout the world. concluded Manager Edy, As Yet Spring Fails To Turn Thoughts Of Youths Toward Love ' -il... Tomorrow spring begins, but whethe the weather is warm or cold, Woodwar. students are certainly holding a sprin, preview. The assistant editor of th Saga seems to be in a quandary lprettg pickle to youj about a partner for th- Prom, but Margie McClainlikes to hea. him tickle the ivories, so maybe it wil turn out all right if the boy in Indian: doesn't hear about it.

Sophomore Plays Receive Favorable Comment Here Of merit were the sophomore plays Cleaned and Pressedf' and The Real Gloria given Thursday, March 11. The Real Gloria, concerning a fa- mous film star and a college girl who looked alike, was carried out to per- fection by'Beatrice Landwehr, the movie star, and Virginia Pawlowski, the stu- dent. Jimmy Parker kept the audience in gales of laughter with his fine interpre- tation of an excited fifteen year old in l Cleaned and Pressed. The scrapes this poor young one gets in preparing for his first date made the play move along swiftly. Credit should be given to Miss Doro- thy Warner and Sylvia Hirsch for their excellent directing of the show. Classroom Clippings The letter of application is being studied in all business English classes Miss Betty Nelson is the instructor.

Clark, head ofthe science depar t- ment, will rot meet with Principal LaRue until after spring vacation to discuss the method of selecting stu- dents to take these exams in the science divisions, general science, chemistry and physics. I Miss Edna McLaughlin and E. R. Rik tor, is refusing to give examinations o send pupils to compete in Bowlin Green exams because, as Miss Curti says, I consider that the examination at Bowling Green set up false standard of work and that they are not truly edu- cational. I am glad to give rny opinion on the matter and want it to be known that I am protesting against these com- petitive tests. Miss Annie Wetterman will send no pupils from her German or Spanish classes as these subjects are not pro- vided for in the list of tests taken at Bowling Green. Howard Phipps is giving tests in first and second year Latin sometime during the following vacation. The two students and two alternates standing high in these preliminary exams will be chosen for each year Latin. In the English department, of which Mrs. Hazel McManamon is the head, English teachers will be selected to call for volunteers, give tests and make their choices of students to take the B. G. tests in the four years of English. Freshman Carnival Program Shows Considerable Talent Considerable new talent was dis- played at the freshman Gayety Nite program.

Although the Board of Education has placed spring vacation after Easter-because Easter occurs early this year--it has still given students an opportunity to attend religious serv- ices today--Good Fliday. Downtown churches will have appropriate serv- ices in observance of this solemn day. The Young People's Federation of the Toledo Council of Churches still conducts a Good Friday service from noon to two p.m. in the Paramount theatre. ' Shall we not take this occasion to enter the quiet sanctum of a church and hear once more the beau- tiful Passion music and story? Supervision Needed T HAS always been the policy of Woodwardis pro' - grams to offer clean, wholesome entertainment' At a recent mass meeting, this privilege was abused. A dance was given which could not exactly be called in line with what model school entertain- ment should be. It is not the fact that this has oc- curred which is to be noticed, but that the same thing does not happen again in the same or any worse form. As a whole, the student body Seems to be of the opinion that this dance was definitely out of place. We might suggest as a remedy, that a more care- ful supervision of auditorium programs be carried out. Why Not Date Signs? RE YOU bothered by dated signs? These bothers are claimed by some to be even worse than acid stomach or pink tooth brush. The organizations that put signs in class rooms, study halls, in the cafeteria, or in the halls should see to it that these posters, when they become out of date or worse for the wear, are removed. Advertisements announcing former basketball games, dances, class activities, or any other topics that have ceased to be current should be taken from the public eye. As there are always many activities going on in connection with clubs or classes, new signs might be used to replace these advertisements which are unwanted. Less Fortunate Ones OR THE most part, the students of Woodward high and vicinity haven't many worries as to what to wear, but every person in this land of milk and honey is not so fortunate. There are people in various parts of the country who do not know where their next bit of clothing or food will come from, The Red Cross is sponsoring a week set aside for bringing contributions to help such people. It is amazing to find how many apparently useless odds and ends in your home have a real value for some- one in need.

Now be patient. I'll explain in a moment. People always have theme songs, as for example, our own dear Bruce is Lumley to Look At. Simple, isn't it? Now if King Solomon of harem-scarem fame had wanted a theme song, he might have chosen I'll Sing You A Thousand Love Songs if it had been written at that time, if he had heard it on a radio, if he had had a radio. Even Nero could have made use of Fiddle I Do When You Are Gone? Contradicting each other across the seas would have been Pocahontas who yells Don't Lose Your Head Over Me? at John Smith, and Marie Antionette mounting the steps to the guillotine warbling, 'Tm Losing My Head Over You. Not even daring to stop at this, may I cite King Arthur whose perfection of character would have come about with his rendition of What'll I Do With The Rest Of My Days? Last but not least, one of the most famous objects in history, Sir Walter Raliegh's cloak gurgles out from its position in the mire, 'Tm In The Mud For Love. Now we are very fortunate with radios--and stuff, why, I know of at least a dozen dames who look deeply into the eyes of our senior class president and trill, Oh, Beebe, What I Couldn't Do-3' Its got the teachers too.

Don't know whether Marion Sutten is victor or not but from the looks of the way he and Alice King are that pally, it looks like Jess Miningerwill have to look for someone else to take to the Senior Prom.

Spring Song Flowers and ribbons in milady's hair, pastel shades, print and flowered dresses, gray shoes, and gay, frilly blouses are all budding out rather timidly but surely to herald the coming of spring. tThere'll plrobably be snow on the ground when you read t is.j Still our Woodward lassies think twhether the weather man does or notj that by this time we should really begin to expect May flowers in that month. So we find Virginia Pawlowski in a new pink and blue frock, Marie Smolka sporting one of those popular print dresses, and Maxine LaFoun- taine enchancing her blond tresses with a new blue gown. Mary Alice Hiteshew confided that she has her new Easter outfit, as did Flora Meyers, who added that she has chosen navy blue to set off her fiery hair.

Society Defeats Hi-Y Cagers Monday Having won the annual football game earlier in the season, the Q.D. basket- ball team made it a clean sweep by de- feating the Hi-Y basketeers 23-13 last Monday, conference hour. The game started rather slow with the Hi-Y drawing first blood when Thaddeus Grandowicz made the second of two foul shots. Earl Ardner knotted the count a few minutes later when he duplicated the feat. Soon after this the Q.D. quintet took over the lead and was never headed. They held an 8-4 advantage at the half and 15-7 at the end of the third quarter. Except for brief interludes in the third and fourth quarters, the Hi-Y made few serious threats. Al Davis was high man for the Q. D.'s with nine points, while Thaddeus Grand- owicz, diminutive Hi-Y forward who made no end of trouble for Q D. guards, was high for the Hi-Y quintet with seven points.

Golembiewski Predicts Fast Team, Most Players Experienced ' ' Chips, potato chips --Have you ever heard this call coming from the second floor during your lunch period? If you have, you've probably heard Johnny Golembiewski who enjoys selling ice cream, candy, and potato chips during his lunch period. Johnny, a graduate of St. Adalbert's, has already become a familiar figure to Woodward students by his fine work on the football team. I hope to be on second base when we play our first game this year, stated Johnny, a veteran of last year's base- ball team. As a member of the Quill and Dagger' and the Polish Literary society, he also participates in intra-mural sports. He remarked that although he is in- terested in sports, his favorite hobby is reading good books. He also confided ibut we doubt this! that ,at the present time he hasn't any girl friend. If you hear someone yelling Pigeon, the call will undoubtedly be meant for Johnny and not for the well known bird of the same name. On being ,asked what he thought of next yearls football team he said, Although the boys will be light, they should give a good account of them- selves as most of them will be experi- enced players from this year's team.

Charity Begins At Home ENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL is attempting to in- augurate our method of student court and hall guarding. Representatives were sent re- cently to visit our student court for a further in- sight into this phase of school management. Our school is proud of the student council's past record, but some pupils selected for hall duty have been lax in demanding hall permits from wander- ing students. Improvement could and should be made concerning the uncontrolled noise during the lunch periods. This situation has long gone without remedy. Students disregard rules when not supervised by diligent, watchful hall guards or guards stationed in the cafeteria to put a stop to misconduct. 1 A Lovely Time NOTHER DANCE program has gone into a scrap book. Another dress must be sent to the cleaners. The class of 1937's Senior Prom is only a pleasant memory. The chairman and committee in charge deserve sincere congratulations for the presentation of such a perfect affair. Attendance was large, and as a whole, behavior was very good. Although the primary purpose of the dance was not to make money, expenses were covered and a commendable profit was received. Thank you for a lovely evening! Competition EN THOUSAND Gayety Nite tickets to be sold by 1770 students! Indeed, a large order---and plenty ofroom for competition. There is where the snag comes in. The dictionary gives 'emulation' and 'rivalry' as synonyms for competition. Emulation is an honor- able and praiseworthy ambition to excel. Rivalry more often means a contest for selfish ends result- ing in jealousy and envy. Surely there can be no doubt as to which form of competition we want. - A Friend In Need OLICITORS for Gayety Nite have been accused of making discourteous requests for donations. A telephone call to this effect was received re- cently in the office. People who are soliciting should remember that donors are favoring the school by helping out, and that we are not doing the donors a favor by both- ering them for contributions. The aim should be to make store owners and business proprietors feel that they are not obliged to give but that they feel it is a privilege to do so. Probably if requests are made in a more affable manner, a better response would be noticed. T The heavy truck standing on the side of the highway was sagged downlat the right 7 l'l 'f' rear end. A flat tire would have been bad ,gy enough but in this case the axel was broken. Y, The driver stood at the rear of the truck ' . 4 and the air was blue with profane exple- ' ' , f tives and vile language. However, the axel X ' remained broken, all the profanity in the world would not mend it. His swearing did not even lift up the sagging corner. Had anyone questioned the driver about his language, he undoubtly would have explained that the swearing gave an out- let to his enraged feelings that nothing else could. But is this good reasoning? The best outlet for emotion is physical action. Had he sprang to his tool box and made preparation to jack up the rear end of the trunk perhaps the swearing could have been eliminated. If we only realized it, our profanity in times of emo- tional stress is just an advertisement of our lack of vocabulary and culture. We are saying to the world at large, Look! a situation has arisen that I cannot con- trol. It is exasperating, so I'll fill the air with mean- ingless profanity. One strikes his thumb with a ham- mer and all the gods from Jupiter down are called upon for aid. The thumb gives an aching just the same as if you had not spoken. Your golf ball slices and no amount of profane coaxing alters its course. Why can't we be sensible and when we have nothing to say, be silent. limmm Sophomores Have--- The right to come in after nine o'clock---Mais per' mission to use lipstick---access to Dad's razor---the story of Lorna Doone---another birthday---a heart interest--- plenty of homework--- privilege of entering into family conversation without hearing, Children should be seen but not heard ---high heels---long pants---a pom- padour---love notes--their names in the gossip column of the Tattler---no more long underwear ffor girls7--- a diary---ride after ride on the bus---those little germs- that cause colds--their first dance---an election of officers fthat's everybodyj---the loss of the term Green horn what a relief ---the embarassment of being caught in study hall with a Love Story --a piece of a teacher's mind fDon't take me literallyl--a sock in the --A-hem!-- back with a spitball--- unsatisfactoriesn- dirty looks--- Qslpills at skating parties and last but not least, something that didn't belong to you such as that sock which was intended for the guy that ducked.

We always believed that only fresh- men resorted to this babyish pastime. However the beautiful blonde seated in front of him made him for- get his dignity. Louis Rabideau was reported to have dropped a bct- tle of Pepsi-Cola on the floor of a corner drugstore the other day. One of the embarassed boys who was with him claimed that dazzling picture of Jean Harlow was the cause of Rabideau's nervousness. California, here comes Louis. But,1shhlthis reporter doesn't think it would be long before Louis would be singing Carry Me Back to Old Virginia. It took only two seconds to dope out that puzzling look carried around by Gail Plush these days is not spring fever, but an expression of his affection for Virginia Pawlowski. By the by, it takes me only one second to realize that I had better scram. A golf professional, hired by a big department store to give golf lessons, was approached by two Women.

I Rangingfrom the time of King Sargon, 3000 B. C. to the modern air mail of today, this saga of com- munication presents in an interesting manner the true adventures of pioneers in this field in every stage of its development. To read about the lad who ran from Marathon to Athens to deliver a message, or of the king's speedy messenger in the middle ages, or any of the other exciting episodes without a thrill is impossible. I-low They Carried the Mail, is not just a series of unconnected events, it presents a continuous narrative of service. To both boys and girls this volume should give a good deal of entertainment, and may be procured in our library. E4 Coach L. J. Robie Expects Good Results From Bear Squad Coach L. J. Robie's Polar Bear base- ball team Will start off its season when it plays a practice game with the Syl- vania team here tonight. The Bears have been working hard all week to be in shape for Lhe game and for games with Maumee on the twelfth and twentieth and with Holland on the sixteenth. Their regular season opens with a game with DeVilbiss on April 26. From a turnout of thirty boys, Coach Robie has managed to whitrle out a squad of fifteen who he is sure are the best baseball players in the school. To date the Mista brothers, Joe and Stanley, and Karl Sitter seem to be the outstanding performers although they are all whipping the horsehide around like veterans. The Sylvania game will be the first time that the Bear nine will have played together as a unit, but since most of the players have played in the Blade Leagues, Mr. Robie expects little trouble. Girls Tell Of Vacation Trips At Athletic League Meeting At the Girls, Athletic League meet- ing, held April 6, Pauline Yeagle and Wilma Cole talked on their visit to the athletic department of Ross high school of Fremont and Northridge High School of Dayton, respectively, during spring vacation. Both girls emphasizad the fact that the schools have longer gym periods. Pauline also stated the Ross High has a girlis basketball team which competes with other girl teams in the vicinity.

Last Matches Will Be Rolled Next Week, To Play Whitmer With only one week of competition left in the Toledo Blade bowling confer- ence, Woodward is deadlocked with Scott for first place in the National league. Woodward's Americans are def- initely out of the running for the championship of their division despite their three-game victory over Whitmer last Saturday morning. Woodward will bowl against Whitmer and Scott will be opposed by Vocation- al in tomorrow's match. Since Voca- tional is in last place, Scott will probab- ly take three games from them. In order to remain in the running, Woodward must duplicate this feat against the third place Whitmer quintet. If any ties are formed tomorrow, they will be decided next Wednesday, while the two league leaders will roll for the city high-school championship April 17. The National leaguers managed to take two games from DeVilbiss and dropped two to Scott's Nationals in the past two Weeks of competition. The Americans also won three of their games, losirg three to Scott and taking a clean sweep of games from Whitmer last week. Several 200 games were recorded in the past two weeks by Woodward bowlers. Joe Mista cleared 200 by one pin in the American League. ln the National division, Ott rolled a 216 and Dick Boldt, a 203. Woodward's Nationals turned in the best single game total last week, re- cording a 909, formed from Ott's and Boldt's 200 games and high games by Sitter, Kime, and Dlugiewicz. Tennis Players Meet Ameeting of all tennis aspirants was held yesterday third hour. Lewis Beebe is the only veteran back from last year. Frank Duvendack is coach of the racket swingers. Student Sings On Al Pearce's Program At State Theater The Al Pearce show which recently visited the State Theater lured Fresh- man Betty Carr whose fine voice was chosen to be vocalized over the air. Her selection, Moonlight and Sha- dows, was well liked by the two thou- sand Al Pearce fans present and more radio listeners. Promising results were granted her in coming years by the Toledo Blade. Juniors' Carnival Program Displays Excellent Talent Junior stars shone in their Gayety Nite program by displaying good talent.

Phipps Issues Call For Golf Candidates, Seven Report When Coach Howard Phipps issued a call for golf candidates Wednesday, only seven reported to fill out their eli- gibility cards. Coach Phipps, however, expects a few more prospects to report before the golf team swings into action. If Charles Schultz reports, he and Earl Barrett will be the only veterans left from last season. Others reporting are Walter Bishop, Richard Boldt, Rob- ert Miller, Vincent Gigliotti, Carl J ankowski, and Bill Miles. Weather permitting, the boys will probably start swinging their clubs next week in Wilson park during the third hour and after school. Another meeting is slated for next week when Coach Phipps will dicuss the golf rules with the prospects. Woodward's first match is against Vocational on April 28, and as yet, the course over which the game will be played has not been selected. June Bowman, Sophomore, Reports On Queer Animal June Bowman, a sophomore student of Mrs. Mary O'Brien's second hour biology class, recently gave an interest- ing report on the chambered nautilus before Miss Dorothy Kellogg's junior English class. This mollusk was of par- ticular interest because of a poem that the juniors read, The Chambered Nau- tilus by Oliver Wendell Holmes, which gives a description of the life of this shelled animal. Ourtains To Be Purchased With Q.D. Raffle Profits Instead of using the money obtained by the Quill and Dagger's radio rafiie for purchasing a new moving picture machine, the money will be appropriat- ed to a fund to be used for buying new curtains for the auditorium. The cost of installing the machine was found to be too expensive and in- volved the enlarging of the moving pic- ture booth. - German Students Visit Art Museum To View Paintings A group of students from the German department visited the Art Museum last Thursday, April 8, to view a collec- tion of German water color paintings made by the foremost artists of Ger- many.

Letter To The Editor To the Editor: I think the way in which the Junior class Gayety Nite program was received by the student body of Woodward was deplorable. During bits of the program some pupils were so rude that persons who wished to hear were unable to do so. The rudeness is not felt by the aud- ience as much as by the performers themselves. The per ormers are discour- aged by the portion of students who can not appreciate such entertainment I think if such people can not keep quiet at these affairs they should be denied the opportunity of attending events in the auditorium. I hope this letter may raise some pride in some of the students and that they will attempt to have respect for performers. If this is not done, I believe the faculty or student council should act. Sophomore Girl Is Active Student, Receives Good Grades The decorations?--I hope they will be as lovely as those of previous sopho- more dancesf, Esther Urbanski, ener- getic chairman ofthe decorations' com- mittee, enthusiastically responded in reference to April Rhythm. Versatile, entertaining Estheris active in extra-curricular activities, being a member of the sophomore executive commitee, the Zetalethean Literary soci- ety, the Faces club, besides managing to produce an excellent grade report. The sight of a barking little pup be- tray her tops', hobby for she has a passion for dogs, be they of whatever breed or size. To have a kennel full of them is the ambition ofthis dainty miss. Nothing pleases her more than to be neatly and properly dressed, and to eat plenty of candy. Handsome boys who come from Scott demand no little por- tion of her time. With a gay little laugh she concluded, I hope I'll see you at April Rhythm.

Many Teachers Spend Spring Vacation Traveling Many Woodward teachers left our stately halls for the wide open spaces during spring vacation. Traveling to Flordia, Miss Adrienne Curtis, French instructor,was most im- pressed with the T. V. A. and the new little town of Norris which has grown from that project. Going over the Smoky Mountains in a snow storm is described by Miss Curtis as a beautiful experience. Mrs. Mary O'Brien also visited Flordia going through the south- ern states. While driving through Ken- tucky at night, Mrs. O'Brien said she saw nothing but men because the south- ern women must be in after dark. According to Miss Amie Miller and Mrs. Hazel McManamon who took a trip through Kentucky and Tennessee, Robert Shuff the southern states have already been visited by spring. While passing through Cattanooga, Tennessee, Miss Miller recognized Miss Curtis who was pacing to and fro in front ofa hotel waiting for her car which was an hour late. Mrs. McManamon also visited Atlanta, Georgia, and Ashville, North Carolina. Antique hunting occupied the time of Miss June Anderson, Art teacher: Traveling through- Findlay and Mans- field, Ohio, she found an old antique chair, a cherry wood spool leg table, and interesting glassware. On a trip to Washington, D. C., Miss Blanche Hazelton took the Sky Line drive along the top of the Blue Ridge Mountains and had many other experi- ences, including a visit to rattlesnake farm. Scholars, Athletes, Artists Bring Class Above Average Hail the conquering sophomores come, Some with books and some with gum. What e'er they do they hit the top: I wonder will they ever stop? Sophomores distinguish themselves in as many ways as other classes. Wear- ing a scholars' cap as emblems, Lorraine Barnes, Edyth Bolton, Jennie Payak, Rose Shemas, and Raymond Sheline lead their class. Armed with tennis rackets, baseball bats, and basketballs, Celestine Smo- rowski, Pauline Yeagle,Ted Klonowski, and Ted Nowak are victors. Pallettes on their arms, paint smudges on their cheeks, the Art department honors Frances Hunsicker, Loretta Ig- natowski, Marion Thefilman, Virginia Wysonieski, Bernard Christie, William Raczko, Fred Saba, Frank Scott, Louis Truna, and Paul Whiting. With a song in her heart,Jane Weeks distinguishes herself in Glee club. Oh, we could go on indeinitely, dra- ma, band, numerous things. But the time is short, as are most of the sopho- mores. So, until they grow up into so- phisticated seniors, may their lights not be extinguished by the invasion of a bushel. Master Key Is Attached To Disk To Help Teachers Take me Q-hicj home to the---the of- fice. Don't be mistaken, my friends, this is not from one of the office girls who decided to celebrate, but an in- scription on a huge shiny metal plate constructed by Paul Thomae, machine shop instructor. Now this plate bears the image of a drunk leaning against a lamp post, and making the little plea mentioned above. Attached to this steel disk is a key. Ah! the key, the key which teachers borrow from the office to open their rooms when they misplace or forget their own, the key that has always been disappearing As a solution for this problem, Mr. Thomae has made the plate, already described, in hopes to keep this master key from being mislaid so frequently. llt won't fit very well in a pocket or purse and is almost impossible to lose, so it appears to be a good investmentj Doris Shortt, assistant editor of the Tattler, suggested the carton which is engraved on the plate.

While no encroachment on the political integrity of any state is intend- ed, a closer union in a strong league of friendship is the desired object. An appropriate program, prepared by La Junta Castellanaf' commorated this ideal. Anything which will disseminate information and create a spirit of good will throughout the Americas de- serves our heartiest commendation. li.- , Next Week's Preview EXT WEEK the annual Fun Issue ofthe Tattler will make its absurd appearance. This is a warning not to take anything which appears in print too seriously, and is the ounce of prevention which may ward od' a lawsuit. But seriously, this issue will be part of the Tat- tlefs contribution to the Gayety Nite fund. So if you feel inclined to burst forth into laughter, hop aboard the good ship, Tattler Fun Issue. Round trip tickets---one cent. Variety For All VERY Woodwardite has visited the Art Muse- um at sometime or other this school year. Much was made of the fact that we Toledoans have a muesum which values sixth in the country. But do we take the advantage of the opportunities for the cultural development this institution offers? Besides the numerous classes on Saturday there is a series of four concerts featuring classical and modern music. These concerts, free to the public, are on successive Tuesday evenings at 8:30 p. m. The last one, April 27, will be devoted to a lecture on jazz. Surely here is a variety for all. Boys Wanted OYS WANTED: to take shorthand. Miss Mary Cady, instructor in stenography, recently call- ed Principal C. C. LaRue's attention to the fact that there are only three boys enrolled in the short- hand course. It seems that the boys sign to take the subject, but upon seeing a class composed almost entirely of girls, are frightened away. Anyone with an eye to the future can see the val- ue of both shorthand and typing in every field, bus- iness or professional. Academic students, especially. neglect to learn typing while in high school, and then find that it is next to impossible to finish a college course without it. All business and profes- sionl men and women realize the value of knowing how to write shorthand and how to operate that time saving, energy saving device called the type- : f i rrwrri in Homework always comes first with me. l never go any where unless I have my work done, and do my studying, stated diminutive Genevieve Jablonski with a patient smile. Yes, there are such people here at Woodward, kidlets, plenty of them even if you don't think so Genevieve, who is a senior, received four A s on her card for herefiorts. However, just the opposite in her work habits is Phyllis Nowak, freshman, who also received four A s and who doesen't study at home but who does her work in her three study periods. I really was a little surprised when I received my card because I never stay homejust to study, Phyllis added in her friendly manner. Another all AU student who does all his homework in his study periods, fit's all right if you don't have four hours homework for a 45 minute studyl is Leo Christie, junior, who smilingly informed me that he 'fWas kinda' lucky and besides they aren't such hard subjects.

Inquiring Reporter To what do you attribute the fact that the four leading salesmen of Gayety Nite tickets are girls? For an excellent reason. A boy is not as interested in extracurricular activities. The girl gets results: the boy, promises. Wayne Dunn, Senior I I I I think girls would naturally have more initia- tive in this particular type of school activity. Boys don't usually go in for the 'frills'. Eileen Krawetzke, Junior I I I 'fl don't know whether it's sex-appeal or not, but the girls usually take more interest in things such as selling tickets, etc. Bert Gass, Freshman Curious Fakts Abraham Lincoln who stood six feet four inches in height is the tallest man ever to be president. The origin of the talking rock: Someone discovered in the vicinity a large stone upon which had been painted the words 'Turn me over.' It required considerable strength to accom- plish this, and when it was done, the command 'Now turn me back and let me fool somebody else,' was found painted on the under side of the stone! James Madison was the first president to wear long pants. Washington, Adams, and Jefferson wore knee breeches during their administrations. Drowning persons do not necessarily rise to the surface of the water three times but they may not come up at all. The first slot machine was probably invented in 200 B. C. by Ctesibus. It was used for dispensing purifying water to Egyptian worshippers. The first known saw was the jawbone of a snake. The original sandwich man was the one who pa- raded through the streets between two boards as an advertisement.

These rules si ated that students cculd belong to only two clubs and hold an office in only one. Class officers were exempt from this ruling. Pupils present at this meeting voted on secret ballots which had questions concerning whether or not conditions in their respective organizations were improved with these regplations neces- sary for membership. Each question could be answered with yes, no, and no opinion in case this particular situ- ation wasn't apparent in their club. Stu- dents were also requested to write their own frank opinion on the back of the questionnaire about these rules. Since these regulations were institi- tuted for the benefit of Woodward pupils, Mr. Van Gorder will see if more students belong to clubs. Last year only about four hundred students were members of clubs from approximately a total of eighteen hundred pupils that were registered. If the conditions aren't better this year, new rules will be made until more people join in extra-curri cular activities.

The spectacular pitching of Abie Lincoln Clark held the red and white Young Hens to only seventy-nine runs as compared to the low sum ofseventy- five runs gathered by his own team. Annie Wetterman's great swatting power was the cause of many home runs slapped over the wall into Mrs Mary O'Brien's lovely biological garden Geometry Helps lf Amie Miller hadn't had her know- ledge of knowing the exact angle at which the old apple was going to bounce, it is certain that many more hits would have been credited to the other side. The cooing of soft words by Marian McDonough behind the plate to Frankie Duvendack while he was bat- ting might not have inspired him to sock all those triples out into left field where Dot Warner could have caught a few of them if' she hadn't been bowing to the Playshop seated in the grand- stand. Sonny Boy Crouse occupied his time whittling a key to fit Miss Dorothy Kellogg's home room.

In the twentieth Qby the way, in the eleventh inning the umpire had to call up Mr. Luna and ask him to please put a stronger bulb in the moonj inning the only man to get on base for the Burlies was Happy Mohrhardt when Hannah Shaw started to balk. When Sunrae Sheline started to walk three Hens, the game unofficially closed, for Homer Meatheny was the next gal up to bat. Living up to her standards, she smashed an infinite homer to send all her players home while she repeated circling the bases and would still be running if Mr. Meatheny, her husband, hadn't broken his neck opening a can of sardines and requested her to kindly come home. 4 I I and Jerome Janizewski supervised the construction of this exhibit. The special feature, an apparatus showing the time of' the various parts of the world, is regulated by a mechan- ical clock whose face will denote the twenty-four hours of the day instead of the usual twelve. Half of the face is also blackened to indicate the part of the un- iverse in darkness. This clock is placed in the middle of a world map so drawn as to show the various time belts of the world. There are also twenty-four small clock faces encircling the map and mechanical clock. As the minutes tick away on the mechanical clock, all proper time change will be registered on the small faces. Incidently, Toledo is indicated on the map to provide a check on the spectators. ' This feature will be illuminated by indirt ct lighting in a case of modern design. Some of the other interesting dis- plays are electro-magnate and the X-ray tubes. The principle of the broadcasting station will be explained.

Phipps Keeps Score In Latin, Winner To Recieve Mug For Annual Shave In Woodward's annual professional National Open Golf tournament for ama- teurs, William Rohr leads the field with Farmer Crouse's bulldog trailing closely behind. The winnah of this 18 hole class- ic receives a lather full shaving mug. Using our electric eye we see Miss Grace Cronk and Paul Thomae on the ninth green, and we hear: Oh! it's a birdie. What do ya mean! You had 13 on that hole. ultm not referring to my score, I just saw the first robinf' Of all the participants, Howard Phipps has the best system. He's keep- ing his score in Latin, so nobody as yet has been able to find out his score. After plowing through the sand storm on the 13th green caused by some ener- getic pet-a-dog in the trap in which our electric eye nearly got its eye full, we come upon Ray Sheline Sr. fishing the creek crossing the 14th greenway. It seems Ray knocked all his pellets into the creek so he just took his driver and a piece of string and started casting. Since the eye is on the blink we will have to leave the contestants, but we will present the mug to the winnah tonight. I Teachers, Students Hold Amateur Marble Contest A-ten-shun all sharpshooters!

B. Good, member of the Wood- ward track team, when interviewed by a Cattler Tub, last Tuesday, under the showers in the boys' varsity room. The rest of the team may sit down and drink pop in the shade, as I will gather enough points to take the meet walking away, added overconfident. Mr. Good is a freshmen in Woodward and has been for the past six years. His favorite sport is Tiddely Winks. His best girl stands 3 feet off the ground and weighs 212 pounds. QShe is a prox- ide blond.J In his six years at Wood- ward he has taken six years of general science, six years of freshmen English, six years of algebra I and six years of community life.

Red VanGorder, Baby Boyles Play 'Romeo And Juliet' Here Mary Boyles At a recent auditorium program Shakespeare's immortal Romeo and Juliet was portrayed by the faculty. Radu Van Gorder played Romeo and had all female hearts fluttering, while Baby Boyles was a sensation as Juliet. Romeo sang the love songs so sweetly that there was not a dry eye in the house. While climbing to the balcony, Red', missed a rungin the rope ladder and became suspended by his left ear. Meanwhile Juliet, after repeating her line six times, went to look for him and the balcony gave way under her 120 pounds. And when the curtain came down on the last act, Red', was hold- ing Babe on one knee and the balco- ny on the other. Ah, Shakespeare, Shakespeare, would thou couldst have . but seen it. According to word from a reliable source, those athletes, John Ford and Walt Bojanowski, falsified their testi- mony for those popular Walk-a-Smile cigarettes. The boys don't smoke that brand at all fthey roll their own.J U I I We've been having some complaints from our basketeers during the season now running. It seems the boys don't mind those spitballs and a little gum thrown at them now and then but when somebody started chewing tobacco at the Podunk game last night, well, the kboys just don't like it one teensy weensy it. 1 an 0 When Coach Smith caught that cer- tain look in the eyes of some of his hope- fuls, he said he might have to move to some desert isle for practice. It seems that the beeootiful and the spring at- mosphere has put the boys more in a mood for poetry than football.

Paul Thomae Pitched One H And Forgot To Let Loose Of Bail With the opening of the baseball sea- son and baseball fever running high, your baseball reporter ventured over to a training camp to get a line on th rookies. Much to my surprise I foun many of the Woodward faculty member battling for a position. Among the rookies I found S. B. Crouse. He said that the only reason h joined the ball team was to get a firsa row seat to see how the other fellow throws the ball out in the bull pen. Getting his practice from throwing monkey wrenches across 'he machine shop, Paul Thomae joined the team as a relief pitcher. Thomae I hear was going strong as a relief hurler until the other day when he went in the game in the seventh inning and made one mis- take. While pitching with the base loaded, he got the catcher's signal mixed and the battter smacked the bal over the fence for a home run. It Wasn't Paul's misfortune that four runs were scored off of him but he forgot to let go of the ball and was on the other side of the ball when it left the field. Art Smith, the center fielder, goes out in the middle garden equipped with a fine net and a swatter. He does this to keep the flies from bothering him. The manager of the team had to put Woodward's glee club teacher on his ball club to get some gate receipts. Too many people were bringing him in as the Ball that was socked over the fence. The manager, being a pessimist, sign- ed up Homer Hanharn. He said that at the end of the season he'll be able to go around and brag that his team hadn't ended the season without a Homer QBoy some wallop.J These rookies are so promising that they will stop beating around the bushl leagues. They were awarded season pass- es and are also determined to go on a sit-down strike till they reach their 65th year then they'll collect their social se- curity. PUPILS IN CLASS RESEMBLE LOUIS Miss Cornwell Have you ever seen the bend or cracki' class held each Monday and Wednesday after school? Imagine a bunch of sophisticated Woodwardites crawling on hands and knees arching their backs and looking ready for a scrap. Shame on Stella for teaching them such habits. And that sustained movement! It looks as though they had a busted spring. Then when they do the percussive movement you think of an amateur Joe Louis multiplied. We also can imagine ourselves in the jungles of South Africa as we hear Corny beating muly on a sawed-off drumhead and the whole half-naked class in pairs running as if persued by a litter of crocodiles.

For Juniors Only EXT TUESDAY talented members of thejun- ior class will present The Black Flamingo, your class play. After many hours of patient rehearsing and directing, they have turned out a piece of work worthy of praise. The play committee members and Miss Dorothy' Kellogg have also worked industri- ously over a long period of time. As this is the one dramatic event of the year which you can call your own, you should realize that its success depends on the wholehearted sup- port of each individual class member. Individual Cause And Effect IVING TO worthwhile causes has always been encouraged. The work of the Commu-nity Chest has had its effect on every city and individual. In the past projects which were for the benefit of Community Chest were given by clubs and home rooms. This year that method of raising money will not be used. It is up to the individual student to make his own private contribution. Make use of the old N. R. A. slogan. I do my part--- are you doing yours? Educational Interest F THE TWENTY-EIGHT students who com- posed last year's scholastic team at Bowling Green, ten received ratings of tenth or higher in the district. Two of these pupils placed first and second, and seven gained honorable mention in the state. This year Woodward will be represented by a smaller team that was not selected until several weeks ago and has not, as in former years, recieved intensive drilling by teachers. The students com- peting have relied upon their own methods of sel- ecting material for study. Although attention is seldom centered on edu- cational events, the rating, the experience, and training gained by this group is of great interest to Woodward. Appreciation Extended OR THE SECOND time, Woodwardis Gayety carnival has been a success. Crowds again swarmed about the many booths, keeping clubs busy the entire evening. As a financial affair, it went over big. Appreciation is extended to the home nursing and foods classes and the Art Klan who worked weeks before, selling popcorn, cocoa, and peanuts during third hour and lunch hours to help the Gayety Nite fund. To those students who also worked hard selling tickets, soliciting for donations. and working here in school, we extend our thanks.. I 1Sy'l,.L,.1:'a'Ru'e I What will be the economic future of our country? Stuart Chase in Rich Land, Poor ' . , , Land paints agloomy picture. Our forests A 7 I have been so ruthlessly destroyed that 1n A -..' a few years, there will be no lumber or , .,,, E, source of supply. Our. oil resources are -' rapidly nearing extinction. Gas 1S now al- ' i' most a thing of the past. Supplies of coal are being rapidly exhausted. The end of that fuel supply is in sight. Copper, lead, and iron are no longer available in quantities that pay for their production. Grasslands of the West have been plowed, creeks and rivers have been drained, and forests cleared until we have a western dust bowl that prob- ably will never be reclaimed for civilization. In short, all of our national resources of timber, ores, and lands have been ravaged to satisfy the greed of man. Mr. Chase probably exaggerates. He wants to shock his readers by making the story as alarming as pos- sible. But we know that his predictions are based upon facts. We should be alarmed, not for ourselves, but for future American citizens. Every pupil, every teacher should lend every aid to movements that will conserve these resources, resources that are not ours but only held in trust by us for the future. U A stricter government control of all these things is one possible solution of the problem. l FLASHES FROM FRIENDS I I knew a girl named Passion.

Pioneering and all its hardships is the back- ground into which the author weaves the romantic life story of Gil and Lena, a young couple who leave their parents' established forms in the crowded east to go west into the Virgin land which promised so much. The author's clarity of description, especially about the terrible Indian fighting, gives more spice and realism to the naturally adventurous backgronud of the plot. We think Mr. Edmunds has done an admirable job, and judging by the acclaim given to his book, we are not alone in that opinion. Drums Along the Mohawk? will be found in our library. It is a rental book, the fee being two cents per day, but if you read swiftly, you can read this book for about six cents.

Modern dance was the main topic, many colleges giving exhibitions. The teachers were then led in discussions on the dance. Bill Tilden, tennis cham- pion, gave a fine demonstration at the same meeting. One ofthe most interesting lectures I've ever heard was by Professor VVatso of Columbia Universityj, she exclaimed. The professor's talk was on Physical Education From the Stand- point ofa Physcologistf' Another ab- sorbing talk was given by Walter Petkin, author of Life Begins at 40.7 HA lovely concert was given by the New York Symphony while I was there, and I also saw Helen Hayes in her famous play, 'Victoria Regina. ' Miss McClure enjoyed other plays too, such as The Woman and a musical comedy, Frederika. Even though she spent the week in New York, the first question she asked the teachers when they greeted her Monday morning was, How was the carnival?

Al Pinski Woodward representa- tive in the 440 yard run, salvaged the the only first place taken by the Bear team. Al Greenwood came through nicely, taking two second places, in the shot put and discus throw. Bill Luther, De- Vilbiss, set a new track record in the broad jump of 20 feet five inches.

Woodward, Vocational Golf Game Is Postponed Mr. Phipps Due to the heavy downfall of rain in the past few days, Woodward and Vo- cational golf teams were forced to post- one thf-'r fwme l st Vilednesda The px 1 gf 1 F. . y. game will be played at a later date. The Bear Linksmen however wish to V 1 open their season against the DeVilbiss Tigers this afternoon at the Ottawa park course.

Al- ternate one William Miles and Robert Cluskey. The team selected Chuck Schultz as their captain for to-dayis game. LUHD 'l'U Robert Shulf Woodward's potential league leading gridders of 1937 met their first test suc- cessfully when they clashed with the Senior- Alumni team and came out with a 7-O decision. After staving off several threats the '37 edition scored on an interception of a lateral pass by Klocko and then con- verted. The Seniors kicked off to start the tilt and Shuff recovered on about the Woodward five but the play was called back because it came before the whistle blew. The game was a see-saw affair with neither team having the ball in the other's territory except when Bob Shuii' blocked one of Ervine's punts. An at- tempted field goal ended that threat. The ball was deep in the Senior's ground twice but always as the result of good kicks by the Woodward backs, Colby and Ervine. Dick Davis booted out of danger for the seniors. In the second half the game was played in the '37 territory except for the interception, and spectacular drives with Davis and Malaska toting the ball placed the ball on the two foot line where the Bears held for downs as the game ended. Art Smith's p-roteges played minus two backs, Banasiak and Szelagowski, who are expected to do plenty of playing next fall. Neverthless, George Jacobs, Art Colby, Ed Bialorucki, and Red Ervine looked good in the backfield but the experienced line did not live up to expectations when Bob Root, Benny Malaska, Dick Davis, and Bob Shuff, continually iiltered through to make it tough for the backs. Bob Root stood out in the seniors line while Joe Wichowski and Al Greenwood topppe the juniors forward wall. Botany Class Begins Flower, Vegetable Garden Projects The creation of vegetable and fiower gardens has Miss Grace Cronk's fourth hour botany class chasing as far as Bay View for fertilizer.

She is about 5 ft. 3 in. tall, has dark brown hair, and green eyes. Her favorite sport is swimming and she likes science best of all the subjects she takes.

I attended Stickney school before coming here, and I like Woodward very much, she concluded earnestly.

Mr. Thomae removes stones from people's eyes with a stone. Resembling a tooth in appearance, the evestone is placed in the eye were it picks up all foreign matter and then falls out. This stone was given to Mr. Thomae by his father. Un-believers may obtain ample proof by a personal performance at any time in the shop, room 112.

However, just to be different, we're going to use our imagination and review the presentation before anyone sees it. Probably among the good points of the Black Flamingo will be the silly mistakes made by members of the cast. It seems that only errors bring laughs from the audience, so the more the merrierft If the story is full of mystery and dead people, it will certainly be a suc- cess. Everyone enjoys corpses Qespecial- ly lifeless onesb. Dead bodies don't talk. lThat's the general opinion, isn't it?9 Therefore, plenty of time to sleepvand maybe to have a snoring debate on What Type of 'Ham' is the Leading Man? , Undoubtedly, the weakest spot in the program will be the part where all the players know their lines perfectly. fYeah, before the curtain goes up.J Now that I have concluded my first attempt at reviewing a production, I think the t'healthiest thing I can do is to sever all connections. Of course, it may take the rest of my life to decide how it should be done, but you can pur- chase passes to my funeral at the near- est fire alarm box. In the meantime, see Mr. Ghost Go to Town on the wings of the Black Flamingo. ' Phipps To Teach Golf To Junior, Senior Girls During the rest of the year, junior and, senior girls will have the opportun- ity of learning the art of golf.
