Wharton Allen Circulation Manager . . ....... Ralph Love Sponsor ..... ............. S . R. Cummins Expressing Your Feelings With a Smile Will Help Spread Good Will. Smile and the world smiles with YO'-13 frown and you frown alone. A smile, as Ml'- Webstei' defines it, is An expression of pleas- ure, moderate joy, love, or kindness by the countenance. That's a lot for one small word to accomplish, we'll admit. Still, in our halls and classrooms, we students of Danville High could make quite as deep and full a meaning. After all, most of us live here about six hours a day together. That's over a thou- sand hours a year, and if we can make this school of ours a more pleasant place in which to live, surely any efforts to do so are worth- while. By thc way, our teachers have a lot to put up with, don't they? Most of them teach more than 150 students a day, and they might have a right to get pretty grouchy. Still, don't you notice they're usually cheerful! If you have ever come to school with a sort of down in the dumps feeling, you know how much a smile from a friend really helps. We don't mean a mere silly grin, but an hon- est-to-goodness, straight-from-the-heart smile that carries with it sincere kindness and ap- preciation. We're all pretty happy around here, and expressing our feelings by a sincere smile will help to spread good will. Student Government Should Be Appreciated By Students of D.H.S. This year, for the first time, a modified form of student government has been institut- ed at Danville High School. The presidents of the junior and senior student bodies each choose the speaker and have complete charge of the assembly programs for their group. These leaders were well chosen, and some very excellent programs have been brought to us by them. But do we want to stop here? Our school officials are willing to let us have more control, to have a real say-so in school affairs if we show that we have a real interest in them. Let's show them that we appreciate the degree of control given us and that we are capable of really taking part in responsible matters. If real student government were put into effect, it would be the very best leader- ship training that a person could get any- where in his high school course. Wanna Buy A Pencil? While strolling up town after school, it is a familiar sight to see the loyal efforts of the Pep Club members trying to sell Danville High pencils with the football schedule on them. Two members come idling out of the ten-cent store, and the bolder one spies a young man lounging outside. On the alert for a sale, she darts up to him. Wanna buy a pencil? I-Ie turns a careless eye on her. No, thanks. But they're splendid pencils. They got the D. H. S. schedule on 'em! Nope. She has a brilliant inspiration. I'll give you a piece of candy if you will. I could get a whole bag with the nickel I paid for the pencil. She loses hope of selling one to him, and seeing a middle aged gentfeman, plunges at him. Wanna buy a pencil? Not this evening, he tells her gently' Aw, come on! They've got the- He wheels savagely on her. I don't care what they've got! I told you I didn't want one! She retreats in alarm, and stands a moment speculating. Then, seeing a prospective cus- tomer, she dashes forward, and chants, Wan- na buy a pencil? Sure Another Sign. Another sign of the change of the seasons is that the gloomy looking fellow you see on the streets isn't a business mang he's a foot- ball coach.-Ex. Principal's Corner It is a relief to find a few members of the newspaper staff who are hustling at their jobs. ' Public hero number one of Danville High School will be the student who reports the fellow who persists in scratching some of the new chairs in the West Hall rooms - or still better the student who gives said fellow a gentle sock on the jaw. It's about time for the usual fall crop of Smart Alecks to put in their appear-- ance in home rooms and classes. Look for them, you normal folks. They aren't hard to Hnd. Most ,of them will be trying to attract attention. Thcy thrive on your applause. Congratulations to the Danville Admir- als on the wonderful showing made against Somerset last Friday night. If the fight and the enthusiasm exhibited by the Big Blue last week is present in the renialfning games on the schedule, Danville should not lose another game. This is no time, however, for the team to rest on its laureis. The boys will have to continue to improve to be able to take the other opponents into camp. Just about the time this paper comes from the press, S. R. Cummins, faculty sponsor of The Log will return to the fold after a two-weeks' stay in a Louis- ville hospital. We have missed him.

THE LOG 6 dmirals Trounce Briar Jumpers, 20-E0 0 DU PUNT MANUAL DOWNS BIG BLUE Joseph Frankel, Admiral Guard, Rcceives Broken Ankle. About five hundred rain-soaked, yet enthusiastic spectators watch- ed the Danville Admirals bow to Manual by the score of 18-6 on OC- tober 5, in the Parkway Stadium at Louisville. Play in the third quarter was marred by the almost simultan- eous injuries of Kelley, second team Manual guard, and Joseph Frankel, Admiral guard. Kelley received a fracture between the- knee and ankle, and Frankel suf- fered a broken ankle. The Manual Reds made their first marker early in the second quarter. Later, in the third quar- ter, the Manual eleven scored twice, making a total of eighteen points. Following the replace- ment of the Manual first team in the fourth quarter in an endeav- or to stop a Danville drive, a pass from Inman to Johnson netted the Admirals their only score. The en- tire game was featured by many substitutions for both teams. Officials: Koster, referee, Hart, umpire: Ellis, head-linesmang Mil- ler, field judge. Scoring touchdowns: Manual- Shepherd 125, Zimlickg Danville- Johnson. RESERVES LOSE GAME, WIN ONE Having completed their first two games of the season, losing one to Burgin and winning one from Somerset, the Danville High School Reserves are beginning to show the makings of a good foot- ball team. A game with the Burgin first team was a disappointment to the locals, as they returned to their stamping grounds on the short end of an 18-0 score. Sparrow of Bur- gin was the outstanding player in this game. In their second game with Som- erset, however, the future Admir- CContinued on Page 'TJ RESERVE COACH W. T. GRIFFIN D. H. S.

Coach Mountjoy's Admirals barely subdued the fighting Redhounds of Corbin by a score of 6-0. Thi game was played under flood- lights on the Danville field. The lone score occurred in the last quarter when Johnson, Admiral back, plunged through the line for six points. The first and second quarters were featured by two twenty-five yard runs made by Jakie In- man. The half stopped a goal- ward march by Danville, on Cor- bin's twenty yard stripe. The third quarter consisted mostly of returns of punts and a succession of line plunges. Throughout the game, Danville out-puntsd and out-scrimmaged Corbin. Danville gained 262 yards in scrimmage to Corbin's 163. Danville's punts averaged 40 yards and Corbin's 37 yards. Danville attempted fifteen passes, complet- ing four. Corbin tried ten heaves and completed three. LEBANON - QUAD TIES DANVll.LE Outplayed, Fighting Peacocks Holds Danville Scoreless One. of the greatest upsets of the 1935 football season at Dan- ville High School occurred Friday night, October 11, when the Leb- anon Peacocks, playing an inspir- ed game, held the Admirals to a 0-0 tie. Although unable to score against Lebanon, the Admirals were on the offense most of the game. The fast, clean tackling during the en- tire game saved Lebanon from defeat. The most exciting play of the game came in the last quarter when Morgan, Lebanon fullback, intercepted a Danville pass and ran forty-five yards to the Dan- ville 30 yard line. Although the- Admirals rallied at the last of the fourth quarter, they were un- able to score. During the game, Danville made twelve first downs to none for Lebanon. The Admirals completed five out of fifteen passes, while Lebanon made nine un-successful attempts. Danville picked up a to- tal of 251 yards from scrimmage. while the Peacocks gained only 26. Both the Lebanon football team and cheering section showed plenty of pen and enthusiasm. Officials: Potter, Illinois, referee: Peak, Kentucky, umpireg Rupp, Kansas, head linesman. -i.l.---...

After a hard fought game play- ed at Danville last Friday night, the Somerset Briar Jumpers re- turned to their homes on the short end of a 20-0 score, again being unable to wrest from the Admirals the coveted Southern Railway cup first presented in 1933. Somerset has not won from Danville since 1925. The 1926 game ended in a 7-7 tie. In the first few minutes of the game, Allen took Ramsey's punt on his own.35 yard stripe and re- turned it to the 48. From this point Danville made an unchecked march to the goal line where Inman scor- ed the first six points of the game. In the first minute of the second quarter, a pass from Inman to Leathers was good for the second tally. At this point the first of twenty-one Danville substitutes entered the game. Later in the same quarter, Allen received Ram- fContinued on Page '71 Coaclfs C orner The Danville High School athletic association for the past eight years has gradually increased its equipment until at the present time we have com- plete uniforms for seventy play-- ers. D. H. S. is one of the few schools in the state where every article of equipment is furnish- ed by the school. It does not cost the parent anything for the boy to play football at D. H. S. The D. H. S. stadium is one of the largest in the state and the field i-s probably the best lighted. Danville has the heaviest squad and more boys than at any time in the past ten years. We have a very poor football team however. Perhaps our stu- dent body can offer a rea-son for this poor showing.
