Why Coaches Get Gray Maybe you've seen the little column In your paper entitled Why Mothers Get Gray.” Well, here Is another fellow who should get giay. Yes. we mean the coach. Naturally we can't give you any reasons for his getting this way unless it would lie the members of the football squad who prefer loosing to practice or the chorus who loves to stand In the showers and sing those sweet lullabies, and then there are the fellows who think the squad should know how their love affairs are coming, even the ones who drag In late because the little woman had something she simply must tell them. Yes. these are Just u few of the reasons why coaches get gray! JOHNSON’S H-C SINCLAIR SERVICE Corner of Main and Henry Orioles Engage Mason Here On October I st Mason Has Six Lettermen Back. Five, in Backfield With five veterans in the backfield. Mason will try to avenge last year's defeat. Although having five letter- men in the backfield. Mason has only one veteran lineman.

Athletic Ticket Goal Not Yet Attained Outcome Far Below Expectation Charlotte high school sponsored the athletic ticket sale, which started September 14. An assembly was given to start the campaign. The high school mayor. Bob Orr. gave a speech to encourage the buying of these tickets. Mr. Anderson then stressed the value of purchasing athletic tickets as a financial invest- ment. The tickets are really an outstand- ing bargain for the students as they sell for only $1.40 a person for admis- sion to all home footltall and basket- ball games this season. The tickets, if bought separately at each game would cost 35c Thus the purchase of an athletic ticket will save $2.45 a season. The outcome of the sales revealed that 327 athletic tickets were sold compared to 390 last year. The senior high bought 231 while the junior high purchased 96. While the percentage was not as high as last year. 58% of the upper- classmen bought tickets, against 55% of the lower classmen. Mr. Bllbie’s American problems class has the highest percentage in the school, being at the top with one hundred percent. Mrs. Brown's litera- ture class follow’ with seventy-seven percent of the students purchasing tickets. The money taken in from the lock- ers at the beginning of the year is to pay for the lyceum numbers, assem- Idles, and every student Is to receive an Orange and Black.

For Instance who would have guessed two years ago today. September 30. 1941. that our brothers, fathers, uncles and sweethearts would be overseas today in such out of the way places as New Guinea. New Caledonia. Sicily, North Africa. Guadalcanal, or Alaska, thousands of miles away from home? But to go back to that day again who would ever have thought of being in this horrible war today, waiting day after day to get letters from our loved ones; waiting, day after day for the headlines to read. Enemy has been defeated. Victory is ours ? Of course, another side of it would be the soldiers, sailors, marines, aviation cadets. They never could begin to Imagine what was going to happen to them. They were living a peaceful life by going to school, being on the football, basketball or baseball squads, or working after school in the down town places of business; then spending a peaceful evening studying or going out against regulations of training and having dates with their various girl friends. But. today, those boys are ten years older wKh their experience . Today a great many of them are married and others are waiting until the war is over to be married. Yet. they have their minds set on a certain girl, who then, they didn't think of any more than Just the girl next door. Some of those boys will never return, because they will have given their lives for something they love along with home, parents, and the girl next door. —their country. Yes. change and more changes have been made and still more are to come. What do you think the next two years will bring? Thankful! Thankful! Yes. we should be. On September 23rd. Miss Phoebe Young, a Chinese student at Albion college, visited our high school and gave a very interesting talk to the student body. She told of her people’s ways of living, education, and entertainment. She also told of the air-raids. After her talk one could see in many ways how thankful he should be for living in America. Miss Young is a typical modern Chinese woman. She is very attractive as well as entertaining. We thank her for a very Interesting talk. Try Your Talents! We have back this year to keep up the school spirit, five of last year’s cheer leaders. They are Lucille I aPoint. Betty Lou Squibb. Mary Jane Spagnuolo. Sally Starret. Lois Willard. There Is to be one more elected soon. This will be done by tryouts after school. The notice will be on the bulletin for the new cheer leaders. Come on. boys and girls, back your school team in a little differ- ent way. Try out for cheer leading. To all students—The best of wishes on your coming year in Charlotte high school. May it be profitable for you. Co-operate with the teachers in every way that is possible. To students new to C.H.S.—The best of luck to you in learning the new ways of this school. You especially are wished the best, because we want you to like Charlotte high school as much as the older ones enjoy it. To the faculty You. also, are a special group that needs the best of wishes in these hectic days of turmoil. You. 1 am sure, will receive the co- operation of the students in every possible way to help lift the burden of such a great task as you are carrying. To the student council, to the mayor and secre- tary. to the faculty members and the students members—We wish you the best of everything in the big Job you are taking up. The journalism cluss in putting out the Orange Black is a tool for carrying out a school project. We shall make mistakes but we shall do the best we can. Will you co-operate with us in making each ls ue better? Bring your suggestions to member of the staff. Service Honor Roll Indicates Progress Last spring at the time the Charhian was pub- lished the service honor roll had a total of two hundred-twenty-flve names. Mr. Murray is work- ing on a list of sixty names that have been added during the summer. As soon as this list can be verified, it will be published. This list will include the girls who have joined either the Wacs. Waves. Spars, or Nurse Corps. Before this Is dedicated If any body knows of any Charlote alumni who have entered any of services since school closed last June, will he please give that information to Miss Wells. Big Opportunity This year, the room that was used for the senior study last year is now the school library. Every student should know how to conduct himself in the library, so there should not have to be a list of given rules to abide by. However, a general list will be given to each student in the near fu- ture. Let’s co-operate with our librarian and keep the library a place In which all of us will have the opportunity of searching for materials or en- joying recreational reading without interruptions. What is so amazing to the back rows of the band when they march? Night life must be too much for Harry Curran. He seems sleepy in class. There are a lot of cute little freshmen running around. Have you noticed them? What is it that the town students seem to miss out on at noon by eating at home? Wonder if Robert Woodman has found his last class yet Who is the flirt in the journalism class? Why is it Bracie doesn’t want Don to know she's going steady? What is it Joan Easley has? Must be her southern drawl. What is this about Maurice Tharp’s Friday night? Nick-names are annoying, aren't they? Has anyone heard the fine chorus in the boys’ locker room? Sn Tjhe jCtmeitght I caught the soul of a poor little tenth grade girl in the study hall as she was diligently reminiscing through the pages in her favorite subject, Ameri- can literature. This chestnut-brown haired, browneyed girl i from Williamston, and works for her room and board here in town. Our school, she thinks, is superb, but she in eager to get further acquainted; so boys—remem- ber this- Basketball and roller skating are her favorite sports. Lovely Judy Garland is Tops according to her way of thinking. Now who could this little de-icer be? If no other than Joan McMyler. Eagerly answering the questions that were ask- ed. this eleventh grade girl said she was from a very large city—Potterville. This dangerous character to all boys’ hearts works at Wood's Drug Store. But boys, too bad—her heart belongs to Robert Taylor; although she has left a little room in her heart for a certain senior boy. Ho is a shy. light complected youth. Track is his energetic sport. Guess who? Well, never mind, kids, let's get on with the interview. Roller-skating goes well with her. but she lives for dancing, and likes the idea of the school dance club. In the line of eating, her favorite dish is spaghetti and meatballs. You are probably dying by now to find out who this lovely lassie is. Okay, we will tell you. It Is—Marylin Maurer. Just Askin’ The roving reporter made a trip around the corridors to ask different people what they thought of the new athletic tickets. Here are the results: Beverly Paton and Frances Smith, two popular band members, say it's a swell plan and they're for it one hundred per cent. Neil Cochrane says that the boys on the team are planning on keeping the little brown jug. so come on. students, buy your tickets and keep the team fighting. Popular Dan Fuller believes that the students haven't shown enough interest In buying tickets to back up the team. Just take It from him. stu- dents. that if more tickets are bought. It’s going ;o help beat Eaton Rapids. Eugene Royston is all for the activity tickets. He says even though he goes to football gnmes free by oelng drummer in the band, he purchased a ticket for the many other events it Includes. Ore Aids So Z o... Miss Thelma Elworthy for the work she was doing this past summer at the Chrysler Corpora- tion Apprentice Training School. There, she was taking an eight weeks' course in industrial man- agement. and operation, including problems of personnel, social service, employment and labor relations. The purpose of the course was to give teachers a clearer idea of the men and women in industry today. This also gives the teachers Information tor students who were planning to do this same kind of work. At the school she received factory wages. In- cluding overtime, for their 48-hour week. Besides the forty hours of shop work, she attended daily conferences. Going to this school. Miss Elworthy was working for a Master’s degree. This is the first time in American history that American universities have given credit toward advanced degrees for work done in a factory. Orchids to her and to the many other teachers of the midwestern high schools who took part in this program. It not only gives them wonderful training for the future, but also helpful informa- tion to give to the students. This could help to decide the future of some of the senior high school boys and girls. Charlotte high school salutes you. Miss Thelma Elworthy! Why Is it some girls are afraid of leap year which is coming up? Where have the hags gone? Also Jack Bobler's wolf patrol? Here’s a vote to one of C.H.S.’ cutest couples. Barbara Bradley and Kay Mohre.
