ORANGE A BLACK P«y I Meet the Tackles Last Issue It wait the ends, this Issue we introduce the tackles on your Char- lotte Oriole high school football team. Willis Wilcox and Bruce Garling- house start most of our games at left and right tackle, respectively. How- ever. these boys have to keep on their toes to keep Ed. Simek from playing In their positions. Willis Wilcox, a senior, weighs 156 pounds and stands 6 feet tall. He has been out for football three years and gained a letter last year Bruce Oar- linghouse. who Is a Junior, weighs 164 pounds and Is 6 feet. 3 inches in height This Is Bruce's third year of football and he also received a letter last season Ed. Simek. also a junior, weighs 165 pounds and is 5 feet. 10 Inches tall. He has been around that football Acid for three years but has failed to earn a letter so far Another tackle who will see action this year is Donald Grier. Don Is a junior, weighs 1S6 pounds, is 6 feet, one inch tall and has been play- ing two years but has not received a letter. The tackles are a very important part of a football team's line. They must be big and also quite fast so that they can pull out and lead the! Interference on some plays. Endur- ance and stamina must also be among their qualities as they get many jolts during a game. You will find Willis Wilcox wearing number 45. Bruce Garlinghouse 51. Ed. Slntek 39. and Don Grier 43. When you come to the Hastings game tomorrow, why not watch these tackles on some of the plays instead of the ball carrier.

Hehcern the Hank ROBINSON BUICK GARAGE BEST BUY BUICK Oriole leathers During a Monday night scrimmage, about a week ago. between the first and second teams. Carroll Stringham. Bud Beechler. and Lynn Fowler did fine jobs of playing ends; Willis Wilcox and Jack Hicks played triple-threat halfbacks; (they w-ere a triple-threat between them). BoNo Walters play- ed the plunging fullback, and Les Bl8el played hookey. The guard positions on the Oriole team are sadly vacant these days. Bono Walters and I wrence Hall, first string guards. were injured last week following Boh Gunnison’s re- tirement as the result of his birth- day. Sullivan and Mario; These backfleld stars of Otsego's brillant team displayed a combination of de- fensive and offensive skill seldom seen in high school football. Mario’s pistonlike legs carried him through, over, and around the Oriole line. He was the main-stay of the Otsego of- fense while Sullivan. who seemed to be always In the wrong places at the wrong time, intercepting forward passes and plugging up holes in the line was the star of the opponent's defense. In recognition of their achieve- ments. the Charlotte football team and hand will again be honored guests at the annual Football-Band banquet. No- vember 19 at 7:00 p. m.

The seats are there for rest between dances. The first mixer Is coming just around the corner so why not all join in and have a good time. Every effort has been and is being made to make these mixers bigger and better but you have to co-operate, too. The decorations are made and put up to suggest the mood of the dance. The orchestra introduces novelty numbers, make It novel! The mixers are for your enjoyment, make them yours! Remember there is a mixer tomorrow night. I’ll be seeing you there. Hold That Line Charlotte high school football team is one of the best in the conference, but that is no assurance that they are going to win the title. We can help them along, though, by giving them plenty of school spirit. On the sidelines we are but mere spectators, but being mere spectators won’t help the team any unless we give our team a lot of encouragement. Cheering is the only thing our team lacks. School spirit comes from the sideline, in the pep- meetings and from the teachers. Half of the stu- dents do not turn up at football games at all. but the other half should make it up by yelling louder. When the opposing team gets near our goal line give them plenty of Hold that line! then when our team nears their goal line give them loads of We want a touchdown! At the next home game let’s all turn out and yell until we can't even speak out loud. How about It. gang! They Are Not To Blame Students have been asking why can’t the seniors take any more overnight tripe ? This question is facing the seniors of '41 and will be facing every senior group coming in the future. Nothing has been definitely settled as yet. but If they can’t take an overnight trip it is not their fault. The reason the decision is hanging in the bal- ance i« not because the advisers. Mrs. Marena Kip linger. Jacob VanVessem. and Earl Mead, wish to flaunt their authority, but because parents of last year’s students who journeyed to Chicago hate to see another class In rhe future do something that proved to be such an unhappy event to all who were concerned in the matter. Seniors Lament I think that I shall never see A grade more lovely than a B. A B whose calming grade points rest Where D and E and even less Have made us look to Profs all day And lift our lovely arms to pray. A B whose grade will let us rate The marks we need to graduate. Poems are made by fools they say But only Profs can made an A —Exchange Just Gossip It has been said that Bob Stockwell and Day- ton Fisher like to shake hands, especially in the study hall seventh hour. For selling the most Orange 6 Black subscriptions. Gerry Fulton. Ha- mae Lawrence, and Melvin Shaver won a free subscription each. Well! what did you think of your two-day vacation? Pretty nice huh? If it could have been this week you could have gone pheasant hunting. That's an unhappy thought isn’t it? If you have ever been in the first hour study hall you’ll probably wonder why Jerry Ful- ton laughs so much. No one seems to know. , What do you think of Ed. Simek’s haircut? A i good Idea for summer, but what will he do this , winter? Freeze? Douglas (Bud) Fletcher almost received a black eye the other noon. Maybe If he wouldn't fool around so much he wouldn't have it. What do you think. Bud? Have you heard of the Halloween party the Merchants are giving? It’s go- ing to be fun. Pleasures seem to accompany work even during school hours. How about It radio ! listeners in woodshop? Have you ever wondered how to define children ? Ask Jane Konacki Attention! Seventh and eighth graders beware of the lovebug for he bites very deep even when you are young. Ask Evelyn Hodges. Fran Hlgbv wonders why the light buttons aren’t labeled. It Is rather embarrassing to try them all. The first vear ait students were doing fine work on relief jobs last week, although I didn't see any shovels around, did you? The horns on rural students’ cars seem to be In good working condition although some are a trifle weak. Oh gee! My time Is up. . so long. Autumn Colors Boys laughed! People stared! The whole . United States was In an uproar. In the cities, the «tore windows were filled with the bright colors. Crowds were running wild. It was a time where emotions ruled discipline. Why? The girls began t wear knee socks, the greatest event to take place t:i the field of aoorts clothes. Not only the sloppy joes and saddle shoes” which made their debut l: st year are drawing attention, but these two nieces or one piece wool garments are completely monopolizing all glances. Most of these are only one piece, extending from the foot to just below the knee, but there Is another kind which is in two pieces. One niece is just an anklet and the other starts just above the calf and extends to the knee. Between these two pieces the akin Is shown. Indeed this day is to be remembered by ail as a day of eventual happenings, because the socks make their first appearance. This appearance makes the most colorful occasion of the year. The 1 reds, oranges, blues, and bright greens blend very effectively with the autumn shades. Sculpture In Soap Soap carving is very worthwhile and enter- taining as you can see by examining the exhibits in round and relief in the show case on the third floor. These exhibits were made by the first year art students. The relief is a figure raised on the back- ground. the round is a figure with no background. The pieces exhibited by the class were judged according to the time and skill in making them A palm tree. In the round, modeled by Betty File was voted the best. Second best went to the ele- phant made by El wood Martin. Honorable men- tion was given the figure of a little man made by Frances Hlgby. In relief, a head sculptured by Jean Carlson won first best. Second best was taken by a grace- ful swan done by Dorothy Cochran. Honorable mention was obtained by the delicate work on a Bethlehem scene by Betty File. Each member of the class was required to make two pieces of sculpture. Also on display are a boat, four-leaf-clover. French perfume bottle, and many other figures well worth seeing. Thanks For The Memories Of tests in harvest time When thoughts were of the clime. When chemistry and physics make us study all the time. Oh thank you so much. The Coach Last night I made a vow to tell the coach Just how I looked on him and all his kind. I gathered several bombshells of reproach And was determined I should speak my mind; I practiced all the things I meant to say. Marshaling words like moron, lout, and bum; But when I met him face to face to day I suddenly grew paralyzed and dumb. Then he proceeded to belaboo me By calling me a lot of nasty names. He told me that a panty-waist should be Out playing half back for a team of dames. But my old tongue was tied up in my cheek And though I tried my best I couldn’t speak. —Exchange.
