' i Why should anyone with such ,dash and skill on the football, field, basketball court, and cinder, track bc called Dopey ? Could it have anything to do with Eng- lish class Mr. Phelps? Charles Allen is called Lefty I and Scooter We understand Lefty but why Scooter James alias Red Volner could not possibly be mistaken for any one else unless they had spilled a bottle of henna rinse The Admirals three big husky tackles have very sinister sound ing names Scar Kinniarcl Zebe Montgomery and Goon Silliman Where do people find names like those? During the St Augustine game did you hear anyone calling- Ellie Mae ? That was none oth- er than little Joe Young, they tell us. Why? Just ask Joe. All of Creekmore's buddies call him Satan . Of all things to call a good little boy like Layton! And where does Cyclone Brat- ton get his name? Ethel M. tells us it is because of his disposition. She ought to know! Some time ago everyone began to notice the resemblance between Jim Hughes and Dumbo , that cute little elephant with the big ears. Now Hughes is 'Dumbo to his friends.
