ORANGE BLACK rape 3 TROJANS DEFEAT LOCAL GRIDDERS BY SCORE OF 41-0 Penner, Drake, Stack Star For Blue and Wh.te Footballers A fast traveling East Lansing team invaded the C. H. S. borne stronghold last Friday, and suffering its first de- feat of the season. Charlotte went down under a score of 41-0. Flr t Score Made Karl) The scoring started in the first period when the Blue and White team galloped fifty yards to the Charlotte two yard line and then shoved the baJ! over the line on a plunge through cen- ter. As the quarter ended, Charlotte found themselves on their own goai line because the fickle pigskin had rolled to a stop just as it looked as if it would go over the last line. Smith punted to his own twenty-five yard line and the sphere was carried to the ten by Penner. East Lansing quarterback. Drake, full back, pro- ceeded to plunge through the line for the second Trojan touchdown. East I ansing again converted and the score stood 14-0. Score Three More For the third time, Charlotte chose to receive und Dewey took the ball to his own thirty-five. However the Blue and White team chalked up three more tallies and all but one of the companion points, by the end of the first half. In the third period the Orioles ral- lied and for the first time seemed to play real football. However a pass was Intercepted by East Lansing and both teams made a few short gains and then punted. The play was very even and at the beginning of the fourth and last quarter, the score still stood 34-0. Make Larky Tally The fourth opened up with the Tro- jans in possession of the ball, but not being able to negotiate a first down, they punted to the local team’s forty yard line. Again the Orange and Black started playing excellent football, but they were driven back and when Smith attempted to punt out of dangerous ground, a Trojan blocked his kick while another picked it up to score a four-leaf clover touch- down for the Lansing eleven. Charlotte received and after a few plays, the game ended in midfield, the score 41-0. Charlotte's outstanding players were: Everts, right guard, who made many of the tackles; Kelly, left tackle who likewise did his share; and the four back field members. Oriole leathers HAKLO DEWEY, Charlotte's three- sport star, has won major letters in football, basketball, and baseball. Dewey was born on December 2. 1917. He is a pitcher in baseball, guard in basketball, and a fullback in foot- ball. He has been handicapped se- verely during the past two seasons by an injured shoulder, which be- comes dislocated very easily. How- ever. he has over- come his handicap to a remarkable degree. In baseball he has developed into a very efficient side-arm pitcher, and wears a special shoulder brace, which helps him to control the recal- citrant member. He is a junior, and will be eligible for athletic competition for two more semesters. DON SMITH has been a thorn in the side of opposing football teams all season because of his sensational re- turns of punts. His return of a punt was the only score in the Cold water game, and he has returned punts for touchdowns against Mason and Grand Ledge. He is also a fine place-kicker making seven out of his last eight at tempts at converting points. Conference dope, as It appears to- day. appears to show that East Lan- sing is headed for another Central Six conference title. As the teams stand now. no team has sufficient power to stop the Trojan advance. Charlotte, prior to last week's game, was to have j furnished East Lansing's stiffest con- j ference competition. The standings are: Team Won Lost East Lansing ...... 2 Eaton Rapids ...... 2 Charlotte ...........2 Grand Ledge ....... 0 Mason ....-........ 0 Howell ............ 0 ----C-H-S---- Other Oriole teams have helped to give Charlotte distinction. 'Way back at the turn of the century, one of our teams played the first game ever play- ed on Pattengill field. Lansing's larg- est high school stadium. 'Hie Orange and Black scored the first points scored on the field, and eventually won the game by a score of 3-0. Char- lotte last won a conference title in ORIOLES TROUNCE MASON TEAM 34-6 Smith, Dewey Carry Pigskin Across Goal For Charlotte’s Points Pet. 1.000 .667 .667 .000 .000 .000 “Don Smith, fleet Charlotte quar- | terback. led his team mates to a 34-6 victory over the Mason eleven Friday. September 27. In the first few minutes of play. Charlotte scored two touchdowns, one on a forty-five yard run by Smith, and the other on a fifteen yard drive by Dewey. The Orioles scored once more In the first quarter. Smith running | around his own right end to cross the ' final chalk mark, thirty yards away. ' Bob Munger. acting captain, scored his first touchdown of his high school career, when he ran wide around end midway in the second period. The other local touchdown was scored by Smith when he ran a punt back to cross the goal line standing up. After he had missed his first try for point after touchdown. Smith kicked four straight, these points along with his three touchdowns, making him a total of twenty-two points for the day. Outstanding among the linemen for Charlotte were Bobier. Kelley, and Jones. Mason’s lone touchdown was scored on a pass from Harkell to Rullen. in the third period. Harkell was the outstanding player for the Maroon and Blue. 1924. Former Coach “Ken Barnhill played guard on that championship eleven. The big questions left now in the season are: Who will be all-confer- ence quarterback. Smith or Penner? Who will win, Charlotte or Eaton Rapids? Locals to Travel For Howell Game Next week Friday the Orioles will journey to Howell to participate in their annual conference game. Charlotte's record is one to be re- spected. Through hard work. Coach Gobel has succeeded in putting out a team that is the best Charlotte has seen for several years. McKinley, Howell’s star full-back, has graduated. That will be a haid vacancy to fill and still get as good a man as he. The Green and White also lost three others, Swick. half- back; Fulkerson and Wohlfeil, line- men. Coach Gobel says. “I think we stand a fair chance of winning.

Reporters............ ..............Ann Colizzi ...............Joe Simek ...........Donald Richey .........Francis Flaherty ............Milton Briggs ............Harlan McCall Rest of Journalism Class Optimism Some people whom we meet every day go about morosely making them- selves disagreeable to others around them. Surely these folks do not qual- ify as optimists; they are veritably the pessimists. This very lesson was brought directly to the students of Char- lotte high school through the lec- ture by Joe Schnitzler on Tuesday afternoon. Even though deprived of both legs and an arm he insists that he is not a cripple, but merely physi- cally handicapped. Said he: The op- timist sees the doughnut but the pessi- mist sees the hole.” To be an optimist one must be honest and kind. He in- sists that no one can be happy unless he makes some one else happy too. Never should an individual pity him- self. Moreover, one can make the big- gest mistake by being a dependent and a quitter. If one is a quitter in school he’ll be the same in life. If a thing cannot be done one way, try to do it another, but do it. Every single in- dividual has a multitude of blessings to make him comfortable and happy all his lifetime. Blessings include handicaps because they go to make character and stamina. As long as humans associate with one another they must train themselves to get along with each other; they must bej willing to help make others happy, also. Let us each one, check on himself, be frank and insistent, for by so do- ing we can make this world a beau- ; tiful. helpful, and better place in which to live.—E. J. K. Our Football Our current major sport is football. This year, thanks to the coach and the fellows, we have what sportsmen term a winning team. The boys take pride in their work and are giving us a team we can be proud of. Football isn’t all the snap and thrills that we as onlookers see. It isn't the crucial moment when a touchdown means victory; a fumble, defeat. Football as we see it on Fri- day is practice and practice and prac- tice four days out of each week »n order to prepare for that game. Hours of blocking, tackling, calisthenics, sig-; nal drill, and scrimmage. As a result we see the Orange and Black machine move steadily down the field or hold that line with a brilliant performance of teamwork. Teamwork is what counts, not the individual star. Where would the backfleld be if the line didn't hold? How many times is a touchdown made without the aid of skillful blocking? It’s teamwork that counts.—B. C.

'-“-“- «V-'VW»-.■WWUPW Rambling Comments The greatest praise for Marie Gar- vey! She was elected president of the travel club by a substantial ma- jority. Previously she had been elect- ed president of the commercial club. For this reason she resigned from the presidency of the travel club in order that the honors might be passed around. This act certainly entitles, Miss Garvey to a great deal of ap- plause for her unselfish action. The tickets for the games certainly prevent chiseling. The glee club ought to be able to vocalize before long. Ever noticed the blue slips? They I are too common. Some students are hearing that carving desks does not pay. Desks are made for books not vraste paper. Many acquaintances are made at the student mixers. The programs for the football games add to the interest of the contests.

Answers: Jacob Van Vessem: “Being Dutch myself and having had several ‘Dutch dates' I can highly recommend them to the student body. Howard Bond: “They don’t work! Because then the girl thinks she can1 boss the fellow. Beatrice Williams: “They are all right in a pinch, but otherwise I am opposed to them.” Malcolm Gobel: “Having never had any, 1 am not in the position to say. Kathryn Smith: It would be O. K. if the girl had oodles of money.” Harlo Dewey: Most boys have more respect for girls than to make them pay their own way.” William Bobier: Positively, no ‘Dutch dates’ for me.” Sue Gillam: “It all depends on a lot of things. Miss X: It all depends on how bad you want to go with him. Douglas Reister: “I haven't had enough experience.” Delores Bouska: “It would be fun once but the darn boys would get so they expected it and then what? Harlan McCall: The boys should- n’t have to shoulder all the expense, especially if they are going together frequently. Marena Kiplinger: “I think it is a friendly, compromising way, espec- ially if it isn’t serious.” Humor Not Ills Worry Prof.—“Young man how many times have I told you to get to this class on time!

Highlights of the East Lansing Game We'll have to hand it to you, East Lansing; you're even better than we thought you were. The Trojans certainly are living up to their reputation as “the best high school football team In the state. Bill Stack, captain, made the all state second team last year and ia potential material for the first team this year. In the first play Bomber three'g seven yard off-tackle run was a fast one. That certainly was a neat play in the second quarter when Penner ran a punt back thirty-five yards from the goal line; then Leighton ran six- ty-five yards to a touchdown. And did you notice the Trojan line up? Sort of box formation, clever, wasn't it? At the beginning of the second half the fight over in the race track be- tween two of our high school lads had a larger audience than the ball game. Goo-goo, the mascot, created quite an attraction, but he didn't seem to increase our luck at all. Coach Barnhill and Mrs. Barnhill of Okemos attended the slaughter. We heard Mr. Barnhill say, “Pretty good game! This Is what some of our teachers thought of It: Mr. Dykhouse: “I still say we have a good team and except for the sec- ond quarter they did some fine play- ing. Mrs. Kiplinger: I think Charlotte held the East Lansing team in the sec- ond half just fine. Mr. Koch: “The East Lansing team is just too heavy. Mr. King: Our captain. Kelley, is a good, clean, steady player.” Mr. McCall: Did we sell the hot dogs! Mr. Van Vessem: “Munger is a good defensive man. but I wish he were a little heavier.” One of Charlotte’s prominent busi- ness men was heard to say that what we needed was more school spirit. That’s an old saying. Our sympathies to Bill” Bobier, who is carrying his left wrist in splints, and to Little Robert Mun- ger, who had a piece of his tooth chipped off. All in all, it was a great game and we think you did some grand playing, team. Keep up the old fight! Can You Imagine- Donna Belle Blood—with black hair? Charlotte Alsover—changing a tire?

Pw ORANGE BLACK BIBLE STUDY CUSS OBTAINS SPEAKERS Reverends Cruthers and Nagel Talk to Mrs. Kiplinger’s Group The Bible study class, under the di- rection of Mrs. Marena Kiplinger, has been fortunate in obtaining speakers this year. Thursday, October 3. Rev. Nagel of the United Brethren Church of this city addressed the class. His subject was “Abraham. Father of the Faith- ful. He named seven points of Abra- ham’s life and elaborated on them. The seven points were: obedience, un- selfishness. courage, benevolence, in- corruptabllity. mighty in prayer, and wonderful in faith. In his speech Rev. Nagel brought out the fact that our real polish, culture, and refinement comes from God. Rev. W. L. Cruthers of the First Baptist Church of Michigan Center, spoke to the class on Mondav, October 7. His speech was based on the ques- tion. “What does Christianity offer young people? Some of the things he says that Christianity offers young people are: compelling interest, ex- hibition of a life that is worth while, opportunity to spend our lives in ser- vice. and building character. Rev. Cruthers stated that if we must fight, to fight men in our own country in- stead of having war with another country. Rev. Fields of Charlotte’s Baptist church introduced the speaker and after Rev. Cruthers’ speech an invita- tion was extended to the students to attend a service which was to be held at the Congregational church here. The meeting was for the ministers of the Baptist churches throughout the state to become acquainted with what the ministers of other cities are doing in their churches. The Bible study class is looking for- ward to several speakers in the near future. One of the speakers they are hoping to obtain is Father Gabriel of the Catholic church of Lansing. They are also in hopes of obtaining Rev. Glenn Frye, who is now taking a trip in Europe. Wanted A pillow and no disturbances— “Jimmie” Shaffer. A few odd dollars—Boys. A touchdown— The Bombers”.
