THE ARLINGTON HIGH SCHOOL CLARION 19 “ That Memorable Day It was on Thanksgiving morning, That cold November clay, Gay Melrose came to Spy Pond Field, A football game to play. She hoped to win, she fought with vim, Her spirit was more than glorious, But mighty ARLINGTON said, “Nav, Nay. J. A. HATTIE HOME MADE ICE CREAM AND CANDY MADE FROM GRADE “A” FOOD PRODUCTS 75 PARK AVENUE, ARLINGTON HEIGHTS Telephone, Arlington 1955 Free Delivery REARDON’S MARKET not and For I will be victorious.” Our Captain Hamm led his charges Upon the field that day, With student body cheering them To fight for RED and GRAY. The ground was hard as sidewalk bricks. The air was chilled with frost, But our bright jerseyed lads did heed this, They must win at any cost. They ran and kicked and yelled jumped, Upon the hard green turf ; The game was hot and scrappy, With hardly a player hurt. In the first period, as history tells, Hamm made a touchdown, mid cheers and yells, He took the ball and said, “It’s mine, Watch me cross yon goal line.” The first half ended, the score was still Six to nothing, in Arlington’s will; The band marched upon the field that MEATS, FISH, PROVISIONS QUALITY AND SERVICE 1181 MASSACHUSETTS AVENUE MARATHON PHARMACY H.

But our team stood up like a martyr. Now Arlington was powerful on de- fense And held the line like a stonewall fence; Then started down the field to score. And crossed the Melrose line once more. The game ended and all was well, Arlington won by a score of twelve, Coach Henricus jumped with joy, It made him feel just like a boy.

THE ARLINGTON HIGH SCHOOL CLARION Miss Sydnor : “Winn, how do you pronounce pefepwepip.” Winn : “Not knowing, I cannot state with any degree of accuracy.” Unbreakable Lots of people crack jokes, but. did you ever hear of anybody breaking one? ‘Did you see Oliver Twist, Aunty?” i “Hush, child, you know I never at- tend modern dances.” Miss Jewett : “Where do bugs go in the winter?” Fred Murphy (absent mindedly) : ‘Search me.” In More Ways Than One Ike Canty, our fleet footed halfback, was thrown for a heavy loss when he broke a chair in Room 4. Teacher : “Miss Blake, you seem to have a tendency to let things slide.” P. Blake: “Yes, I play a trombone.” Fam o us Rem arks There is something in that,” quoth the fellow, when he upset the ink well. I ' d walk a mile for a camel,” moaned the man stranded on the des- iert. “That lets me out,” said the boy as e passed his dismissal slip to the teacher. “They satisfy,” said the pupil who had three “A’s” on his report. “That’s a help,” said the boy when he thought of an excuse. ‘There’s nothing to it,” said a girl who just had a marked paper passed back. “Like mother used to make,” said the boy, who had drawn a picture on his book. “Another crack like that and you’re through,” shouted the boy on the bank as he saw the ice crack under the skater. ‘A little bit goes a long way,” warned the teacher to a boy leaning out of the window. Harry Townsend. 21 CHATS WITH YOUR GAS MAN WHEN CHILDREN DECIDE THE other day a well-to- do man went to an architect’s office and made a unique re- quest. He said he wanted plans for a home that would please his children — a home that his children would love and take pride in. When the plans were sub- mitted for approval the man, his wife and their three chil- dren were present. The par- ents said nothing. The chil- dren examined the plans, made some minor changes here and there, and put their approval on the finished drawing. Then the contrac- tor submitted his estimates, the father was surprised to discover that the cost was far under what he had thought it would be. The children had actually saved him money by specifying essentials instead of what he termed “frills and refinements.” One of those essentials was gas service throughout the house.
