FOOTBALL High School Football Season Opens Register: In a pre-season practice game, the new varsity squad, under the tutelage of Paul Church, our new athletic director, held the heavier Alumni to a 6-6 tie. Many of our old stars played in this game among them were: Bill Horst ’32, Sherm Woods ’29, Bert Ellis ’33, Dean Har¬ per ’33, Bill Fateh ’33, Bob Ross ’31, Male. Stonex ’33, Dick Madsen ’33, and Bob Volk ’33. C. P. Loses to Mishawaka Crown Point was beaten 18 to 6 in this game, but they showed that the old fight was there. Shorty Woods missed this game because of a leg injury, and he was missed in the line-up. (It was in this game too that Jimmy Kubal gained re¬ nown as a gunman.) C. P. H. S. Trims Clark In a close game payed at St. Mary’s field, Cro wn Point High School nosed out the Clark High chool team of Hammond by a score of 7-6. It was Crown Point’s first Con¬ ference Game on the home field, and they really started out the season right. Red and White Lose Close Scrap Register: The Church men lost a battle that really was a victory in one sense of the word. After holding splendidly throughout the game the Red and White relaxed a little too soon, in the closing minutes of the game and on a spinner Valpo scored a touchdown. Crown Point gained

Harper: I have only a moment to spare. B. Wilson: Good, tell me all you know. Mrs. Seamonson: What language is spoken in Algeria? J. Mecklenberg: Algebra. POISON ALS We still don’t know where “Kip” was when the lights went out (tell us, please, Thelma). We wish “Pinky” would make up his mind. The suspense is terrible HUMOR H. Collins: Here’s some candy. Sweets for the sweet. V. McLaughlin: Thank you. Here are some nuts. Mrs. Thomas: Bernard, isn’t your voice a little squeaky today? B. Pressler: I’ve got a cold. May¬ be I’m only hitting on one tonsil. We hear the government is going to buy a truck for Joe, so he can | deliver himself special delivery j down to Lowell. Freddy says another storm has j blown over. Is that so, Eleanor? Be careful, Martha, the senior president is noted for being a heart- breaker. We thought we wouldn’t see; Handy around here anymore, but j we were wrong. Weren’t we, Eileen? | Please, Dickey, tell us the story about the “Blue Eagle” just once more. And Clark really can run a study hall. Duke, don’t you know the only way to keep Jimmy W. awake is to park V. McL. near him? Benny thinks Benny is the perfect boy friend, all except the personal¬ ity part and he thinks Benny de¬ serves that. Did those of you who were in the seventh period study hall ever won¬ der if Steiner was Esther’s silent love? We hear “Shorty” is planning about three years post-graduate work. Izzat so, Liz? Who’s that guy that says when¬ ever he falls, “This one is the sweet¬ est in the world?” “Plugger” calls his girls “Mite” because they might go for him and they might not. Ethel Mae S. is destined to be the VAMP of C. P. H. S. (if they don’t lock her up first) And talking of guilty consciences, everyone tried to keep his name out of this column. Ask the Editor, H. M. C., Buddy Parry, or Ervin S. Miss Kruger: What do you con¬ sider the greatest accomplishment of the ancient Romans? B. Versteegh: Speaking Latin. J. Louis: Let’s have some ginger ale. B. Fifield: Pale? J. Louis: No, an ordinary glass will be large enough. Miss Taggart: Bernard, please de¬ fine “group.” B. Pressler: A group is a bunch of people containing a few more than several. T. Pettit: Why do you have that string tied around your finger? A. Parry: My mother put it on there, so that I would remember to mail a letter. T. Parry: Well! Did you mail the letter? A. Parry: No, she forgot to give it to me! Mrs. Seamonson: Name a product of the West Indies. C. Johnson: I don’t know any. Mrs. Seamonson: Come, come, where do you get sugar from? C. Johnson: We borrow it from the next door neighbor. Policeman: Where are you going? John Louis: I am looking for a parking place? Policeman: But you haven’t any car. John Louis: Yes, I have and I am looking for the place I left it. B. Brown: Why don’t you put on your slicker? B. Wallace: I can’t, I’ve got a book in one hand and it won’t go thru the sleeve.

CROWN POINT INKLINGS more yard, scored more first downs and had fewer penalties, but that doesn’t win a ball game. Red and White Trim Rensselaer Register: In a hard, fast game, Crown Points light, but speedy, men showed what can be done with a team that works together and plays the game for the school and victory. Everything seemed to click in this game.. Crown Point’s aerial attack was remarkable, and the ground gaining was superb. Sometimes, however, the boys were a little too anxious to make their gains and were penalized nine times for off¬ sides and one time for backfield in motion. C. P. Loses to Morris Register: Crown Point journeyed to Morris last Friday to meet the high school team of that city. Morris, it seem¬ ed pulled a fast one and slipped in their college team, for those repre¬ senting Morris weighed close to two hundred pounds e ach. This was offset by the fact that they were a good bunch of sports, as well as good hosts. The local boys were defeated by a score of 25-0. C. P. Loses to Arch Rivals Meeting its old rivals on Lowell’s field. Crown Point High School lost its annual tilt—13 to 6. All the “dope” was in C. P.’s favor, but Low¬ ell pulled quite an upset. It was a great football day, and the crowds turned out as they always do for this, THE game of the season. The Crown Point Band in its bright col¬ ored uniforms, presented a beauti¬ ful spectacle, and everything seem¬ ed right for a C. P. victory; but Lowell had other plans and they carried them out. C. P. Defeats Central In one of the closest and most hard fought battles of the season, C. P. downed Central. Both teams were evenly matched in size and weight, but Crown Point was click¬ ing and going like a house on fire. Credit for the touchdown goes to “Gunner” Kubal, the right tackle. Jim intercepted a pass, and he sure made a bee line for the goal. The Crown Point goal was threatened twice in the last quarter, but Bill Fifield saved the day with two great kicks. All in all, Crown Point was in there tooth and nail from one end to the other of the field in all four quarters. 7TII AND 8TH GRADE ATHLETICS This year Coach Church tried something that has never been done before at C. P. H. S. and not only did he try it but he made a success of it. The 7th and 8th grade teams had scheduled games the same as the varsity and second team although not as many. They had eight gam- |es scheduled and came through a I perfect season with 8 victories and no defeats.
