ORANGE BLACK Page I ORIOLES VICTORS OVER VOCATIONAL Teamwork Used by Both Teams as Charlotte Wins 34-7 Lansing Vocational school was greeted by the second earthquake of the day shortly after their arrival in Charlotte. Friday, when the OrioleB gave them the works and galloped to a 34-7 victory by means of nearly every plan in existence. Passing and line bucks seemed to hold the top spots for both forces, with the game full of breaks on all sides It is well nigh impossible to list any individual stars because of the first class teamwork displayed during the whole game. However Putman. May hew. Everts. Kelley, and. as usual, the Four Bombers all played excellent football for Charlotte. Fer- guson. White, and King were out- standing on the opposition. The first score was made by the Orange and Black in the second per- iod. when Mayhew caught a long pass from Smith and galloped for a touch- down. Smith kicked the extra point, and the two teams faced off again. Shortly afterward M unger made a touchdown after Dewey had blocked a punt and downed it on the three yard line. Again the point was good and when the horn sounded, ending the half, the score stood 14-0. In the second half Putman started the scoring again, when he ran an intercepted pass to the end zone, chalking up six more. The point was made and Smith intercepted a pass in a short time, running it to the fifteen yard marker. Putman car- ried the pigskin to the five and Smith pushed it over. The point was no good. Several substitutes went in for both teams and the game again got under way. When the third quar- ter was nearly over. Dewey took the ball over the line making the score 34-0 after the conversion. In the last period. Vocational sud- denly seemed to come to life and kept pounding the line for gains. Al- though Charlotte sent In several first men again, a touchdown and its com- panion point was scored making the tally 34-7. The two teams began to hold, neither one gaining much ground. After a few plays tin game ended with the score still 34-7 with the Orange and Black on the heavy end. Oriole feathers GEORGE MAYHEW. local end. will be playing his last football game for the Orange and Black when he takes the field against Eaton Rapids Mon- day afternoon. George started his football career as a freshman at Grand Ledge. That year he was safety man. beating out a regular for the position. In his first season, he played in only three games, due to an injury to his shoulder. The next year he played end for the Ledgers, moving to Charlotte soon after the end of the season. Thus far in his high school career, he has earned two foot- ball and one track letter at Grand I edge. and two football and one base- ball letter here. He has announced his intention of going out for basket- ball this year. He is president of the senior class, and will be eighteen the 2l8t of December. ----C-H-S--- Raymond Putman, who substituted for Dewey in the Howell game, showed that he has great potential football ability. He probably will be a regu- lar next year. Other subs who stand a good chance of making the squad next year are Eldred Toutant, “Mike Mayhew. and other subs who have seen service at one time or another this year. ----C-H-S--- Congratulations to Coach Gobel! In his first year here, he has turned out a fine team. A victory over Eaton Rapids will make his first CHS eleven a complete success. . . . Many thanks to Mr. Charles Wood, of Wood’s drug store, for the trophy he is giving to the winner of the Charlotte-Eaton Rapids game. Such civic-mindedness in one who has lived in Charlotte only a short time, is cer- tainly commendable. . . . Another trophy worth getting is the little brown Jug. Eaton Rapids won it last Armistice day. and it has been dis- played in their trophy case for the past year. This trophy was originat- ed by former Coach Ken Barnhill, and will probably be the starting of another tradition. CHARLOTTE SWAMPS HIGHLANDERS 25-0 Everts, Putman, Smith Star Against Howell Eleven in Fast Game Taking advantage of the fairly high wind, the Charlotte eleven rode to a victory over Howell on the Howell gridiron two weeks ago, by a score of 25-0. Both teams used passes freely but most of the ground was gained on plunges and punts. Charlotte’s out- standing players were Everts, Put- man. Kelley, and the Four Bombers, while Smith. Musson. and Granger starred for the Highlanders. The scoring started after the first ten minutes of play when Smith snagged a Howell punt and ran forty yards for a touchdown. The extra was perfect. In five minutes another tally was scored because of a blocked punt. The half ended with the score standing 13-0. In the third quarter, the Orioles were crippled when Dewey was hurt and had to be taken out. Putman went in and soon a touchdown was scored by Smith. The extra point was scored on a running play. The last period saw another touch- down made by the Orioles, when the ball was hammered across the goal line by running plays. Howell then started putting in a new team, but after the ball changed hands several times, the game ended with the score 25-0 in favor of the Orioles. ORIOLES DOWN HASTINGS 28-0 Coach Gobel's Orange and Black varsity romped over Hastings. Friday. October 18 by a score of 28-0. Don” Smith accounted for the first score halfway In the second quarter and then kicked the extra point. Follow- ing the kick-off. Dewey broke through to smother a Hastings punt for a safety. George Collins tallied again in the third period when he intercept- ed a pass and scampered sixty yards for the touchdown. Taking advant- age of a Hastings fumble in the third period. Smith passed to Briggs who was stopped on the one yard line. Briggs then made good on the next play. Dewey chalked up number four In the final period. The reserves played to a scoreless tie in a hard fought battle. Shaffer starred for the “midgets”. GUESS WHO? He moves quickly steps short; He nears the gate; thumping heart; His eyes wide; he is beginning; His mouth open: he is grinning. So begins the first day. Steps sluggish; grins no more; P'nters gate; heart sore; Eyes dull; lips compressed: Five long days; I need a rest.” So ends the first week. -H-S- Special Ice Cream For Any Occasion C A L L Charlotte Home Dairy HM The second team has played in sev- eral games this year.

With the arrival of this, the best season of the year, we begin to slow our restless pace a little, and realize that Joy and thankfulness to God for the grand privilege of living are para- mount in the scheme of things.” We seem just a little bit more thought- ful. more appreciative, and observant of kindness in others. With all this rebirth in thought and spirit, it hard- ly seems consistent that over-seas great statesmen are shaking their j heads dubiously over the peace of a continent, and perhaps (who knows?) 1 the entire world. It doesn’t seem right that a defenseless group of men must relinquish THEIR PRIVILEGE OF LIVING to the greed, to the ma- terialism. of a pugnacious race of people. Yet. as long as the drums keep play- ing. as long as the glory of a nation is at stake. To arms! To arms!” must be their watchword. What does it matter if the season of Thanks- giving is at hand? What does it matter how many wives are husband- less, children fatherless? And if your conscience, your reason, cannot be heard above the tramp-tramp of the soldiers on their way to glory , so much the better. You are being patriotic.—L. M. American Education Week Primary, rural, junior and senior high schools all over the United States of America will observe Amer- ican Education Week. November 11 to the 17. The purpose of the week is to enable citizens to because better acquainted with the schools. The general theme around which the observance is built is The School and Democracy. American Educa- tion Week is officially sponsored by the National Education Association, the American Legion, and the United States office of Education. Last year six million adults in four thousand communities took part in the Ameri- can Education Week activities. This year the goal is ten million adult citizens for the schools, and to make them better acquainted with the ideals, aims, and problems of educa- tion. There are a million teachers and thirty million students to lead and to arouse the interest of fathers, moth- ers. and all other citizens. The theme emphasizes the funda- mental principles upon which the na- tion is founded. By taking part in Education Week the student learns first hand one of the most important lessons in citizenship. He studies the purposes and needs of his school; he learns that the school is necessary to the success of our republic. As the National Education Associa- tion expresses it. “The free school is the expression of a mighty faith. Be- cause we believe in ourselves, in de- mocracy. and in the future we seek through the schools to improve the quality of our lives.”—M. C. AN INSTRUCTOR A tall, square shouldered, well built fellow he is. His face, neither oval or round is well proportioned as are his deep set blue eyes. Dark brown hair, rather wavey. is parted on the left. Even white teeth add at- tractiveness to his countenance. He has a rugged and engaging personality, and is a pleasing gentleman in the office as well as on the field. He sets an ex- ample of good sportsmanship and clean living as he well may do in a position of such influ- ence on youth. Last issue: Winifred Wells. N Honor Roll What are the advantages of being cn the honor roll? Is it just the mat- ter of obtaining sufficient points? No indeed! The honor roll is more than a list of names: it is the record of ability, achievement, con- scientiousness. and diligent study. To be on this list every time is a real task. If one fails he should not fall further back, but should strive to better his standing. To do this is more important than obtaining recog- nition on the list; improvement is the real reward. At the end of the year, all students who have been on the honor roll every time, or have been neither ab- sent nor tardy, or represent a school organization are eligible to attend the banquet sponsored by the student council. Thus the student has a goal in store and should try to eventually attain it in one way or another.— W. B. C. H. S. Library The Country Gentleman”. Bill Bo- bier. Red Pepper Burns , Charles Widrig.

I'm top hat with r lheads on parade and curly top. Animal crackers are in my soup when I’m reckless and have dinner every night at eight. Pretty lady. I’m in the mood for love, but I’ve got a feelin’ you’re fool- ing’ just because you are my lucky star. When we’re in a little gypsy tea room and the tiger rag does the rhumba Is it any wonder everything is okey dokey? Speaking confidently I’m in love with you and isn’t love the grandest thing? Isn’t it grand every now and then dancing cheek to cheek? I’d just love to take or- ders from you back in your own back yard. It never dawned on me that love makes the world go round. You’re a latln from Manhattan and we’ve got love and a dime, so P. S. I love you. The I onely Gondolier. QUOT-IS.MS Alice Jo Oldt—A winning way. a charming smile.

Marena Kiplinger— And I’d feej the hungry and clothe the poor, and all should bless me who left our door.” That Eventful Night When I started out for my destina- tion that evening, little did I realize my destined future. It was a beauti- ful autumn night; the leaves were falling softly around me and warm gentle breezes fanned my face, making me feel so happy to be living and breathing the delicious air. Suddenly, as from nowhere, two figures sprang upon me covering my mouth so I would not yell. They quickly blindfolded me but I could kick, and kick I did. Their fierce language frightened me. Luring me in a high powered car, I was sped over country-wide. Faster and faster we went - - noise - - confusion - - it was all around. Surely there were others In the car besides myself. Was this a joke? Was I really kid- napped? Would I never see my home, family, and friends again? All these thoughts tossed hotly in my brain. I had u spliting headache. Five minutes before I was so happy to be alive and living in this crimeless” world. I was mad at no-one. But now!! After riding for a little, eter- nity. as it seemed to me. the car gradually came to a standstill. I was jerked from the car. Oh hor- rors!! I was being taken Into a house, a shack or possibly a barn. The kidnappers' hide-out of course! It was cold. My teeth chattered. My heart thumped. Cold perspiration stood out like pearls on my forehead. Oh!! I was made to duck. A board hit me. My shoes were pulled off and I was forced to walk on—ouch! ouch! What was it? It felt like beans and rice. I fell Into space, landed on something soft. A wet dripping something flew in my face. Weird spooky sounds pierced my ears. I screamed. Hey, what Is this! Then a burst of suppressed giggles and laughs. The bandage flew off my eyes and lo. there stood —well, it was only the Girl Reserve initiation!

The only way I’ll be able to find out how our great and near great dunk will be to do some keyhole peek- ing at breakfast time—well. I’ll report my findings in the next issue—maybe! Coach Malcolm Gobel, when asked for a statement about the Eat.m Rap- ids game, said I'll do my talk- ing after the game.” Assistant Coach Kenneth Brown stated.
