The third quarter was an even battle with neither team gaining much ground. The fourth quarter was one of the 1 brills for the local fans. After Char- lotte had worked the ball down to the opponent's 40 yard strip. Bill Cheney heaved a nice puss to Sparks, the right end. who fought his way down to the 30 yard line. On the next play Sparks grabbed a pass from an op- posing back who was al out to Inter- cept It. this gave the hall to Charlotte on Hastings' 1 yard line. A couple of line bucks put the hall over for u touchdown. The extra point came on a pass to Sparks. Charlotte Eleven To Meet Howell The Charlotte eleven meets Howell tomorrow for their fifth game in the little seven conference. Howell is unusually weak this season and the game next Friday Is expected to prove a battle between two matched teams. Howell lost ten men in graduation last year and are playing this season with practically a new club.

The Orange and Black squad fought gamely for four long quarters, hut were not a match for the fast charging team presented by East Lansing. Although complete- ly outclassed «nd outweighed the local hoys fought and tried and that is the most Important thing. The game was featured by many long runs on the part of East Lansing and some hard tackling on the part of the Charlotte team. One of the most outstanding plays of the game was a beautiful spiraling punt that traveled 60 yards ofT the toe) of Bud Nickerson, local right half-1 back. It was by far the longest kick of the day. East Lansing made their first touch- down early in the first period on a pass from Grantham to Pearsall from the Charlotte 20 yard line. The col- lege city eleven had little trouble in holding the local squad, but the fine spirit of the Charlotte players brought praise from the opponents. Classes to Play In Tournament Under the leadership of Miss Swartz, a progressive dodge ball tournament was started Monday night. Oct. 10. The teams consist of eight girls chosen from each of the six gym class- es. Three teams will play each Mon- day and Tuesday nights, respectively, until the end of the tournament. This is an entirely new enterprise and thus far it has proved a very en- tertaining project for the girls. The captains of the six teams are. Beatrice Moore. Neva Lamie. Mildred Miller. Dana Jaquctte. Mary Rathburn. and Kathleen Rolfe. Orange and Black Battles Valiantly to Score Lone Touchdown Charlotte high school was badly routed by the Hastings eleven last Friday by a score of 44 to 6. This was the second game played at Charlotte this year. Although the locals put up a scrappy fight they were unable to hold off the onslaughts of Hastings. The locals snere unable to cope with the type of play used by their opponents. End runs and aerial at- tack spelled defeat for Charlotte. In the Hastings game Coach Barn- hill used a revamped back field which was composed of Youngs and Sparks, linemen In former games, with Fisher and Nickerson at their usual positions. Youngs. Sparks. Kelley and Thomas were outstanding on the Charlotte eleven while the whole team played stellar football for Hastings. In the last quarter SparkM intercept- ed a pass from Hastings and run for 35 yards before he was downed, from there Charlotte scored In a few plays.. As the whistle blew ending the game Charlotte was deep In Hastings ter- ritory ready to score again.

Rest of Journalism Class STl'DENT MIXERS Our everyday life would indeed be a drab and worthless thing if it were not for our friendships. They are to be one of our mon valued treas- ures in life. In later years you will look back upon your school days with fondness because of the many happy friendships you formed. On this theory our Student Mixers are based. At these social gather- ings It is hoped that everyone will enjoy himself and enrich his everyday life by a more sincere friendship. Whether it be between teachers and student or between the students themselves. No better time can be had anywhere than at our Mixers. If you do not enjoy dancing come anyway as you’ll be sure to enjoy the entertainment furnished during the intermission and the general feeling of happiness and good fellowship that prevails.—R. J. O. LOST SOMETHING I “I left that pen laying right on my desk, and now it’s disappeared! This exclamation, and similar ones can always be heard throughout C. H. S. Why? Because students will not co-operate. Instead, each one’s policy Is: I look out for myself, let the others do the same. Have you ever heard of the Ix»st and Found Department? In case you haven't, it Is a system established for those unfortunate who can never find their personal belongings. So let's start today and bring all the straying pens, books, and what have you. to the Lost and Found Department.—I. M. K. CHAPELLE AND PSYCHOLOGY Mr. Chapelle has been attempting to explain why we do certain things in his very interesting talks on phychology given In the last few days for the seniors. The causes of human conduct has been traced from early times, when the idea of demonology or the possession of evil spirits was what was gen- erally considered as the reason for one's actions. As time went by other ideas were ofTered. such as the stars Influence one's life, or that the forma- tions on a person's head or body control his life. The explanation that is now considered by psychologists as plausible. Is that a person does as he does because of one’s nervous system, or urges or instincts that are acquired either by heredity or environment. Many interesting experiences and illustrations have been brought In by Mr. Chapelle and often prove to be very humorous. Many of the occupants of the room were slightly embarrassed when the explanation of certain contours of the head was offered or when illustrations of certain urges were made. The benefit that is derived from these lectures is beyond market value.; Each senior receives something that will always be helpful to him and may be a solution to his problems It is hoped that Mr. Chapelle will continue these beneficial lectures throughout the year. TOPSY TI'KVEY Students, do you ever read your ancient history books? If so. In them you will And that in ye good old days, when men were men and women wore bonnets, that books were chained to the library shelves. The merits of this custom In the light of modern learning are small; but by the appearance of our high room library maybe It would be a good thing if the powers that be applied this custom to our own storehouse of knowledge. It would probably be embarrassing to some, who insist upon putting the books back in a haphazard fashion or else not at all. After u day of this, the honorable book case looks like the fat man’s limousine when he couldn't find his road map. So let's tidy up for company’s sake.—D. G. G. It seems to be the fashion to receive anonymous letter now a days. I wonder why? Every senior was surprised when they found Mr. Chapelle's talks were humorous. Charlotte has won two football games and lost four, poor beginning good ending, so let’s beat Eaton Rapids. [JANITORI j At the Keyhole j In one of his recent talks to the senior class. Mr. Chapelle suid words to the effect that there never would be another man like him. He also said that the reason why most people Joined the army, was to show off their uniform. (Jay Dykhousc and Dick’’ Hall please take notice.) Angus MacLeod, a prominent post- graduate. states that first year French Is all Greek” to him. Mr. Dykhouse reminds one of the Angel Gabrial. as he goes about the high room, the seventh and eighth periods, waking tho sleepers. Quest What Is the most pitiful sight in school? Ans: A teacher washing black- boards. It is rumored that when one of our prominent students was hurt in an auto accident recently. John Jacob II Duce Flaherty, alias Harvey Han- son. ran a mile and a half to the hos- pital to get the story. This is a record for C. H. S. reporters. Instead of saying. I will see you In the funny paper. the modern wise cracker says. “I will see you in the Charhian. Jack Forell is stepping out” a little these days. It is believed that he took the president of the Girl Re- serves to a recent student mixer. Why is Remona Swan wearing a Hl-Y pin? (Muskegon?) Eddie Gibbs carries a lot of weight around this school, 24? pounds, to be exact Cannon Ball MacLeod is a close second with about 246. while Jay Dykhouse tips the scales at a measly 205. Correct this statement: Charles Henry Spice died yesterday from over work. Mr. Spice, who was In the upper third of his class, would have graduated this year. He figured PROMINENTLY In all school activi- ties. was always ready to co-operate with the faculty and was on the honor roll every marking period of his high school career. He will be mourned by his host of admirers. Rumor has it that If Elmon Lentz! remains In school, cuspidors will have to be installed in order to keep the steam radiators from rusting. Horace Darby has the hobby of col- lecting mlssils that have been thrown through window panes In the high school. Let's have a little co-opera- tion on behalf of the rest of the stu- dent body.—H. B.

MEMOIRS OE A MANIAC Mr. Chapelle—oh mister, did you know you made some awful breaks In those lectures? Remember when you told about the American in Venice, who. while walking down the street, saw a gondola full of rah, rah, boys? Now who ever heard of streets in Venice that one could walk on? Freshies, watch your step! There is new speed limit In the halls of the building, at least so it seems for Mr. Stutzman has relieved a couple of boys of their school work for a few days. Rumor has It that it’s due to too much locomotive spirit or sumpin . Well If ever you happen into trouble Just sit down and write a letter to the Orange and Black, or J. J. F., one or the other Is bound to answer the ques- tions. We also wonder who had the tact to place the tack in Stutzman’s tact- full chair? Fess up. seniors!

PETTY I’Ol’RT GOSSIP Mr. Chapelle's eighth hour law class was the scene of a lawsuit between Almon Murray and Leslie I«uuritzen. I eslie charged Murray with assault and battery. Horace Darby was the prosecuting attorney and Jacqueliue Kurreman was ihe attorney for the de- fense. It all started over a book that the plaintiff was reading when the defend- ant snatched it out of his hands. The plaintiff snatched it back. The defendant smote the plaintiff mightily on the chest. The plaintiff retaliated from the tangle of mups in the corner and dealt the defendant a formidable blow’ in the mid-riff. The fighting then became general. Mr. Stutzman. witness for the prose- cution. fearlessly interceded. When the brawl ended Mr. Slutz- man was subduing the defendant with a combination bar hammer lock and half nelson and the plaintiff was flee- ing the vicinity as gracefully as is possible nt high speed. The trial lasted for two days with the spectators on the edge of the seats and the attorneys at each others throats sparring for an opening. Attorney »Karrenmn made a very dramatic plea to the Jury, which con- sisted of six ladies and six gentlemen. She made no Impression on her own sex. After a heated controversy of five minutes duration the Jury brought In u divided decision of six guilty and six not guilty, and the cose was dis- missed by Judge Chapelle.—H. D.

Common Council Prohibits Bathing Saturday evening will no longer hold the important placo it has held for years past when the order of the common council goes into effect. That is if it should ever go into effect again as it did once before. That, however. Is getting a little ahead of tho story. It seems that the first bath tub in this country was built in Cincinnati and installed in a house in that city in 1842. This tub was a huge affair made of heavy sheet lead und Incased in mahogany. Its proud possessor first exhibited it to his guests at a Christmas party. When news spread of Us unveiling the papers denounced the bath tub as a luxurious and undemocratic vanity. Doctors proclaimed it destructivo to vitality and a menace to health. The common council of Philadel- phia in the following year feared that Indiscriminate bathing might Impair the vitality of our race. As a result they prohibited bathing in bath tubs between November 1 and March 1. This could not be en- forced and only acted as a stimulus to the 'vico . Boston in 184 5 made the practice unlawful except when prescribed by a doctor. Then, as in recent times, tho good old sawbones could be re- lied upon to be just a little lenient in their prescription writing. The state of Virginia, however, struck at the heart of tho menace by levying a special tax of $30 a year on all bathtubs. This was foiled by the simple expedient of subsidizing workmen to install the diabolical tubs in secret places. Soon it was learned that the English had adopted the habit of bath tubs to such an extent that they even carried portable tubs when traveling. This so humiliated the hotel and inn keepers that they in- JERROLDS Any Suit in Store $13-88 Principal Dykhouse and Mr. Duguid , rooted for Michigan at the Mlchlgan- Illinois game last Saturday.
