Both Mathew's pass to Mohre. and Carri- gan'» plunge were good for the extra points. Charlotte's excellent teamwork was responsible for this first victory of the season. 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. Mason will have a fast and shifty back in Herb Fox. Ken Faltner Is expected to be one of the hardest driving backs in the conference. Charlotte has seven lettermen. four in the backfield and three on the line, giving the Orioles one more experi- enced man than Mason.

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.

This year it has been planned that each grade will be in competition with the other so that the real spirit of the campaign will be attained. Each grade will select its own leaders and also a name for its class such as The Fly- ing Tigers.” Paratroopers.” Coast Guard. and the like to distinguish it from the other classes. This is another means of arousing the spirit of com- petition so that more scrap and more contributions will be brought in. The campaign this year Is really a combination of two drives, the Nation- al War Fund drive, which Is solely for the purpose of receiving contributions, and the regular scrap drive. All the money collected from the sale of scrap and from student contributions is to he turned over to the United War Fund which includes seventeen different foreign and domestic relief agencies, such as the United China Relief. It is necessary for all students to know the method to be used in col- lecting scrap. The scrap should be brought to the high school play ground. Then the money received from the sale of scrap is to be brought to the leader of the class who will keep track of all the money turned In by the individual and the class as a whole. The scrap must lie a free dona- tion on the part of the people of the Charlotte community us all proceeds from the drive are to go. as stated be- fore. to the United War Fund. Any contributions made by those partici- pating in the campaign will help boost his own personal record and also in- crease the class score. It has been decided that the highest class will receive a cash award and also the highest individual or individ- uals are to receive the same. The amount of the award is to be announ- ced later. The drive has already started and contributions will Ik taken in at any time. November 9 will mark the close of the campaign. There will be no school at this time. Army trucks from Fort Custer will arrive on the last day to pick up all scrap from the coun- try that was too heavy to be brought in otherwise. So They Say Oct. 21—Report Cards.
