September 18. and met defeat by a score of 20 to 6. The Charlotte gridders started things rolling when fullback Mac- Donald led a smashing attack from midfield and plunged over from the five in early minutes of the contest. The try for extra point was no good. Midway in the second quarter. Mike” Mathews, speedy Oriole back, receiv- ed the pigskin on the Charlotte twenty md struck out around right end be- hind a well-formed interference to mid-field, then cut to the left, side- stepped several tacklers and galloped over the Hattie Creek goal line for a marker. However, the officials declar- ed “Mike had stepped out of bounds on this breath-taking sprint and the play was called back. This ended Charlotte's scoring opportunities for they never penetrated deep into Lake- view territory after that. Twice in the second period the Bat- tle Creek boys found pay dirt once on a twenty yard heave from Katz to Drum and the other on a wide end sweep by substitute Hollott.

Meet the Ends CHARLES GORDON: This hand- some lad is 5’ 11”. has blue eyes and blonde hair. He thinks the team is swell, but It doesn't have much enthus- iasm. Maybe this is because there is so little school spirit. By the way— he eats wheaties! ERWIN RADEE. Erwin, a fresh- man. is 5’ 11” and weighs 160. He started practicing with the team, when he was in the eighth grade. He's good already: think what he’ll be when he’s a senior. GALE SHUMAKER: Another good man on our team is in his sophomore year, so we can plan on him for three years yet. One of the things he en- joys most is the excitement before a game with all his friends and school pals yelling for the team. Let's help him along with a little school spirit. DON TAYLOR: Don is about 6’ 2”. blonde, and has blue eyes. He thinks Betty Grable is tops in filmdom. He also thinks our football team is tops. Charlotte: Mohre. Radee. Sanders, Lipsey. Fuller.

For the Orioles and Islanders Will meet 'mid yells and cheers To settle where the brown jug lives For the next one hundred years! You can help our team to win this fame In a simple sort of way. Gather all your friends together And plan to be there that day. This is an early reminder; Be on hand at our own private war . With our excellent morale behind them. Can’t you see that remarkable score? —Bernard Collins. All Out For War? The war effort is a problem dealt with ser- iously by everyone, and Charlotte high school is no exception. We. the students, are doing a bigger and better Job than ever before, but the question is. “Are we doing enough?” In answer to this you doubtless will say that you are buying defense stamps and will soon have another bond. But again. Is this enough? How many of us have driven our cars at noon when a walk would have saved the nation's gas and the tires on our cars? How many of us also have forced ourselves to forget about that scrap in the garage or attic, that scrap which would, if put to proper use help to build tanks, ships, or planes? Yes. let us ask ourselves these questions and then with a clear conscience try to say that we are doing everything we can toward this great national project, defense. Stamps and bonds are being sold through every possible source. Anywhere can be found scrap depots, paper drives, metal salvage campaigns, and voluntary classes in Red Cross work, air raid warden training or auxiliary police practice. With war at our front door, how can we forget for even a moment that each one of us has a job to do? This is war, a fight for freedom, a fight for the rights we received on a silver platter. Now we are being asked to help preserve that privilege so that our children will enjoy what we. as the adolescents of today, are possessing. We are only now realizing the values of freedom and the secur- ity of a self government. Is it worth fighting for? Of course it is! Every part of the United States is a sacred tradi- tion to each of us. and we cherish it for its nobility and courage. Every Wednesday we shall be asked to buy a share in America. Can we find it within our- selves to refuse a course which so greatly needs our one hundred per cent support? I t us give ( everything we can. and our every effort. Uncle Sam will receive gratefully, and even more eagerly do his best to use our strength to preserve what everyone wants—FREEDOM. Senior Library The books in the senior library are to be used for educational purposes and if all students remem- ber this and use them properly, they will last for years to come. Being the most useful place in high school, the library should be frequently vis- ited. Last year Charlotte high school received many new books from the Kellogg Foundation, which were catalogued before being displayed. The following procedure is used in checking out books. In the first place, if you don't know w'here a certain type of book is that you want, you should ask the librarian. It is his duty to help you find the books you want. You must never check out a book by yourself. If you have found a book you want, take it to the librarian at the desk and he will sign it out in your name. If you have used a book for the hour and you don’t Just know where it belongs, take It to the librarian and he will put it back. There will be a better library if every student will feel responsible for the condition of the books and magazines. So be sure that each one is returned to its proper place when you have finished using it.

Wilcox-Gay Corporation MANUFACTURERS OF NATIONALLY FAMOUS “REC0RDI0” tPersona ity Paragraphs When I asked Duane Nicol if I might inter- view him. the reply was. Sure. and he gave me one of those questioning smiles. Football is nat- urally his favorite sport and algebra his favorite study. On the question of food he replied. Scal- loped potatoes hit the spot.” Hedy I aMarr rales high on his movie star list. When asked his opinion of girls. Duane shyly stated. They're all right.—some times. This handsome curly-headed sophomore was finally cornered on his way out for football. It seems as if Mary Lou is sort of playing second fiddle. Could it be that he has other interests? Mae West is his favorite actress. Woodshop rates first among his subjects. Yard Bird Shuffle is one of his well-liked pieces. Perhaps you have guessed who this popular sophomore is—none other than Dick Schneckenberger. Girls have you noticed a newcomer from Oli- vet? Harold Loucks is his name, and don't you envy his wavy pompadour? Don’t let it thrill you though. He has a girl in Olivet. Do you know a certain senior boy often seen with Eugene Royston? We believe the lad knows a good deal, but he seems to keep It to himself. He is usually wearing an F. F. A. sweater. He says the girls are pretty bad. When asked about his pastime, his face brightened and the reply was. I work at Jay's . He plays a bass horn In the band and just loves to argue with Mr. Maner in third hour government class.
