If we could only discover 'the reasons for some of these' inames, how interesting it would' fbe! i For instance, why is Captain Leonard Southwood called 'tC ?I We are told this name originateda two summers ago at old Herring-! ton Lake. ' 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. Another end Joe Blankinship has been mysterious- ly nick named Boomie Why? Joe Frog eyes Brummett one of the back field aces has Just acquired his name this season Another Blue Jersey Everett Crip Randall tells us his name started after a leg injury last year In conclusion here is a little news you didnt know George Wilder 1S a Jitter bug in his leis ure time How else vs ould he get the name Pecker neck 9 Junior Girl Reserves Elect Burke President ' On Thursday October 7 the Junior Girl Reserves met with their sponsor Miss Lanier to or ganize for the school year Offic ers for 42 43 are Bobby Blaine Burke president Patsy Volner vice president and Vera Strnad secretary treasurer Knitting for the Red Cross and making soldier s kits were select ed as projects for the semester Plans are being made for a pic nic in the near future opp ,VI DANVI LL!
