Citation For 9-3 Girls The 8-3 girls of 1941-42, who are the present 9-3 girls of Dan- ville High School could tell, if they would, how breaking a rule in school has won for them a cita- tion of appreciation from Henry Morgenthau, Jr., Secretary of the Treasury of the United States government. Upon unanimous agreement last semester any girl reprimand- ed for unnecessary talking dur- ing class period paid one penny for the offense. These pennies grew into the amazing sum of five dollars which was invested in war stamps and sent to Wash- ington as a gift to help the gov- ernment slap the Japs and kick the Axis back to their own back yards. Talking out of turn in a class period, ordinarily, in any well regulated school, is a nuisance and a serious offense, but this notable class of girls has convert- ed a fault into a national asset. The names of these patriotic disturbers with their unquench- able flair for conversation can be learned from Ada Edmiston, secretary of the group. School Children Give Stacks Of Scrap ' On October 12 Danville city school children contributed six tons of scrap metal when they were admitted to a picture show sponsored by Mr. Richard Peffley, manager of the Kentucky Thea- tre. All schools were dismissed for the day to aid in the scrap metal drive that is being held rin the state. Many unusual and interesting articles were collected, ranging from a flint musket contributed by a student, to a five pound cow bell, the gift of one of the mem- bers of the Danville High School faculty. M. RO CLUB ELECTS OFFICERS At noon on Wednesday, October 7, the Ro Club held their annual election, selecting Lefty Allen as president for the school year. Mr. Boyd, the sponsor, an- nounced that the other officers chosen were Joe Blankinship, vice-president and Barrington Kinnaird, secretary-treasurer. The board of directors welcom- ed two new members, Lee Guth- rie and Carlton Brown. I Eight Teachers Join Faculty Sheehan, Tucker, Elliot, Callahan, Bright, Rosen, May, Owens Instruct Eight new teachers are added to the Danville High faculty this- fall. They are the Misses Janet Elliot, Anne Sheehan, Marjorie Bright, Mildred May, Ruth Tuck- er, Mrs. Elizabeth Rosen, Messrs, Lawrence Callahan and W. H. Owens. Miss Elliott, commerce teacher, attended Centre College and lat- er received her A. B. degree from Bowling Green Business College. Business English, added this year' to the commerce departments curriculum, is taught by Miss El- liot. Graduating from Centre Col- lege last year with a major in English, Miss Sheehan is now teaching her favorite subject in the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. She also sponsors the Jun- ior Red Cross. Danville's supervisor of music, Miss Bright, comes from Stanford, Kentucky, where she was direct- or of music in Lincoln County Schools. She received her music- al training at Illinois Wesleyan College. Miss May, who taught in Maple Avenue School last year, is tak- ing Mr. Soper's place in the junior high school. She graduated from Eastern State Teacher's College in 1940 with a B. S. degree. After several years as teacher of English in Lebanon High School, Miss Tucker returns to Danville, her home town, to fill the vacancy created by Mr. R. F. Scudder's resignation. She holds an A.

Several of the new re- cruits are already taking part in the school activities. Six new members have been enrolled in the senior class. Lou- ise Barrett from Atlanta and Dorothy Soulerette from Alpine, Kentucky, have joined the girls. Billy Silliman, back from a year at Castle Heights, is doing his bit as dynamite tackle for the Ad- mirals, while Lige Falconer has returned from several years at Culver. Larry Euin from Union City and Claude Curtsinger from Parksville are also new members of the class of '43. Transfer students represent the Junior class in many activities. Earl Bell, one of the cheerleaders, is from Lafayette Hi, and has contributed some new yells. Mary Jane Turley from Murray, Ken- tucky, is aready noted for her good grades and is on The Log staff. Another new student from Parksville is-Claude Toney. Jere- lyn Rogers came to Danville from Winston Salem, North Carolina. A tenth grade student, Don Phyfe of Fulton, Missouri, has joined the Admirals this season. Nine East End graduates have been added to Danville Hiis freshman class. They are Mary Oldham, Marilyn Fitzpatrick, Margaret Cook, Christine Bright, Thomas Griffin, Paul Rankin, Buddy Bright, Harold Kimberlain, and Emma Dailey. Harriet Cun- ningham of Cardome is also with this group. Mary Eton Robinson from Greenville, North Carolina, has enrolled in the eighth grade. Bil- ly Cunnigham and Louise Jett are also new eighth graders. 'Whew! I never sausage heat.

The long lines of impatientf students move slowly toward thej 2 food laden tables. The seventh-I graders' eyes begin to bulge slightly as they gaze in wonder at the vast array of candies, cakes, pies, and soda-pop - forbidden fruits in the grade schools. Above the general hubbub, the righteously indignant voice of a monitor is heard. 'tHey you! G'wan back to the-end of the line. With an insolent stare the of- fending student blithely ignores the hand of the law and stands his ground. With this, the monitor goes meekly away to offer the same suggestion to a lower class- man who will respect his auth- orityf' After we reach the tables and make our selections, keeping in mind vitamins A B C D as well as a possible E F G and H, we bolt our food as rapidly as pos- sible. Finally, full, happy, and undis- ciplined we emerge from the lunch room to continue our quest for knowledge.

D H S PORTRAIT Leonard Southwood Introducing the fellow that has a priority on extra curricular act- ivities - Leonard Southwood! Among the offices that he holds, We find, presidency of the student body, vice presidency of the Stu- dent Council, and captaincy .of the football team. Leonard, commonly known as C , has had a brilliant career as a D. H. S. athlete. He went out for football when he was in the eighth grade and has played on the reserve team two years and the varsity team for two years. He's the brains of the back- field , says Goon Silliman, pay- ing tribute to his captain. Basketball is right down C's alley, too, for he has played on the varsity team as forward for three years. Spring always finds him on the cinder track. Last year he placed first in high hurdles at the quad- rangular meet, and tied for first place in pole vaulting at Lexing- ton in the C. K. C. Books bore UC terribly, especi- ally those on required reading lists. In fact, he hasn't a good word for any high school subject except physics. t'There's sense to that,', he affirms. All movies appeal to him, and when Gene Tierney is at the State or Kentucky, so is HC . No Danville Hi girl has worn his class ring, but there are rum- ors that a cute little cheerleader of a rival school can almost throw him off his game . Upon graduation this year, he hopes to major in athletics and physics at University of Ken- tucky. That is, if Uncle Sam is willing.

Is it worth while to finish high school and have a year or two of college before entering the army? Will I ever be able to enter my chosen pro- fession? These are the questions that are asked by thousands of students in our schools to-day. These questions cannot be answered by an individual for our country is at war, and we do not know what the next few years will bring. Of course, many high schobl grad- uates will enter the service of their country next summer if they feel it is their duty to do so. Others will enter college to snatch a year or two of training before they receive Uncle Sam's call, but then they will be thinking, Is it worth while to go to college for just a year or two? It is essential to get all the education possible. It is even more necessary now than it ever was, for the boys who are asking these questions must realize they are the zmen, the government, the America of to- morrow. When this war is over, our country will need educated people in the great re- construction period. As one of the high school boys who hopes 'to graduate in 1943 and have time for, per- ihaps, two years of college before Uncle Sam -calls me, I say to the other fellows, Let's get what we can now, and complete our education after our country's great need for preservation has been met and peace has come again. ' ALFALFA TAKES SCHOOL Hilfi Stulfdents! No, your eyes aren't deceiving you for this is the language that is rapidly replacing English, known as Al- falfa Talk . And I do mean replacing! It has taken Danville High by storm. Alfalfa language is a remote cousin of pig Latin but is much more refined. For instance, school in pig Latin would be choo1sa and in t'Alfalfa it would be schoolfool . Obvious isn't it? It has been rumored that a class en- titled How to Speak the Cultural Langu- age of Alfalfa will be added to the curri- culum second semester. Teachers are said to be taking corres- pondence courses in this ultra modern lan- guage so they can understand their students' recitations. Welfel, I'lfil mulfust silfign olfof nowl- fow! Bilfiy!

His little friend, Jane Eyre, and he played many in- teresting games including Reaching for the Stars, Listen, the Wind, War and Peace, and 'tWe.

He had t'Travels Abroad Inside Latin Americaf' North of the Orient, and Inside Asial' which led him closer to a Garland for Girls. Later he changed his course to Westward Ho! Jane Eyre left her friends, the Little Women, in search of some Little Men. While traveling she met Jack and Jill Under the Lilacs. She became quite ro- mantic. The War at Sea disturbed her quiet life and caused her to be known as The Littlest Rebel.

PRINCI PAL'S CORNER September 1942 has brought the boys and girls of this country back into school again, but under what different circum- stances from those of other years! For the first time in their lives they entered upon a new school term, with their nation and al- most the entire civilized world at war. The homes from which they come are serious homes this year, touched already by the sor- rows and sacrifices made necessary by this conflict. The students from those homes are beginning to realize too, that more and greater sacrifices are just around the corner, if we are to win the war and the peace that will follow. These young people know that there's work to be done and a peace to be won. They have a will to fit themselves to win this peace. They know their country must have strong men and women, ready and eag- er to take their places of maximum service in the days that lie ahead. They do not mean that the American way of life shall be lightly given up. Danville High School students are just a cross-section of America's youth. Six weeks of the new school year are gone-and al- most without exception our students are more serious, more thoughtful, and ready to use to a better advantage the precious school days that are theirs. Surely all your teachers can't be mistaken. They are unanimous in declaring that you have made the best be- ginning of any school year in their teach- ing experience. There certainly is a better school spirit, more respect and earnestness, and students show interest in trying to find the best place for themselves in the scheme of things. You have set the pace for the new year. When May of '43 rolls around, make it pos- sible for all to say that this school session ended as it began-the best in the memory of any of your teachers.

Mr. Callahan attended Univer- sity of Kentucky, Indiana Uni- versity, Kentucky Wesleyan Col- lege, and Colorado State College. He replaces Mr. Stanley Kozar-n ski, who is now serving in the United States Army and is sta- tioned at Bowman Field, Louis- ville. 'Mr. Callahan, director of the manual arts department, teaches mechanical drawing and manual training. He also con- ducts a special class from 7:30 A. M. until 10:30 A. M. The new band director, Mr. Owens, who succeeds Mr. David Farley, comes to Danville from Columbia, Kentucky. He receiv- edrhis B.

Mr. Owens al- so has charge of the commercial department and conducts typing and shorthand classes at Centre College. ' ?l Ethel M.: I can't find a single pin! Where do you suppose they all go, anyway? Miss Adams: That's hard to What-'s ln A Name ff f Our dauntless, daring, Danville eleven have many secrets hidden in the origin of their various nick- names. If we could only discover the reasons for some of these names, how interesting it would be! For instance, why is Captain Leonard Southwood called Ci'? We are told this name originated two summers ago at old Herring- ton Lake. , Why should anyone with such dash and skill on the football field, basketball court, and cinder track be called Dopey ? Could it have anything to do with Eng- lish class, Mr. Phelps? Charles Allen is called Lefty and Scooter . We understand 'tLefty , but why Scooter,'? James, alias 'tRed , Volner could not possibly be mistaken for any- one else, unless they had spilled a bottle of henna rinse. The Admiral's three, big, husky tackles have very sinister sound- ing names: Scar Kinniard, 'tZebe 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 t'Blue-jersey , Everett Crip Randall, tells us his name started after a leg injury last year. In conclusion, here is a little news you didnit know-George Wilder is a jitter-bug in his leis- ure time. How else would he get the name Pecker-necku? Junior Girl Reserves CDedicated to the Chem.

Bandy, consul, Mary Jane Turley, praetor and aedileg Martha Pet- roff, scriptorg and Anna Clark Rogers, quaestor. Six lictors will be chosen to help with the pro- grams. To promote interest in the stu- dy of Latin and to learn more by its practical application to mod- ern life is the main purpose of the club. Latin games, songs and plays will be included in the pro- grams. The motto and password will be disclosed at a later date. It was decided that dues of ten cents per month will be required. This money will be used for re- HELL WEEK OF '42 Each year, just about the time the ninth grade students begin to feel rather important as fresh- men in high school, the digni- fied seniors think of Hell Week. For one whole week the fresh- men are at the seniors' beck and call. The period before the Ad- ,mirals toughest game is usually chosen, because the signs worn by freshmen help boost Admiral morale. D. H. S. plays Henry Clay October 16, so the week before is set aside as Hell Week. Freshman boys are often heard reciting lovely lines of poetry as they stand with their pants legs rolled up and their arms full of books. Of course the poem could not be the one over the office door, and all the books couldn't belong to some studious senior! Shining shoes is another service which the green little boys often render to the dignified ones. A strange but rather potent odor issued from the freshman girls home room one morning this week. Inside sat many rows of strange looking creatures with onions around their necks. They wore stocking caps, odd-looking clothes, which turned out to be dresses wrong side out, long cot- ton stockings, and half their gla- mour was missing as only one side of their faces were made-up. These beautiful damsels were of- ten accompanied by a hot dog tied to a string, and when pass- ing- a senior the freshmen were permitted'l to bark. Before the Henry Clay game the whole freshman class is to march up town with the band and give a few cheers for the Admirals. VVhen the game is over, Hell Week will be over too and meeting of the year held Septem- ber 6, officers were selected as follows: Martha Petroff, presi- dentg Leonard Southwood, vice- presidentg Dolly Bandy, secretary- treasurer. Mr. Young, sponsor, announced that meetings would be held Wed- nesday of each week.

Calling the paper The Log, a ship's record, to harm- onize with our team's name, the Admirals, was the idea of Miss Virginia Bradley, sponsor, and Robert Wisner, first editor. After three years of successful penny-pinching, The Log was adjudged one of the three best school newspapers in the state. Its size increased until it was about as large as the Centre Col- lege Cento. At the first staff meeting in 1934 The Nautilus, the annual, and The Log were consolidated, and advertisements were permit- ted. It was decided that the sep- arate editions of The Log would be bound at the end of the school year to form an annual. This is still the policy of the journalism department. .-.

C. crown, when they gave Somerset's Briar Jumpers a 20-7 trouncing on Morrow field, Friday, October 2. Lefty Allen and Dopey Phelps sparked the Big Blue's attack with their super running and pass- ing. Phelps scored the first touch- down from the three after a long drive from the opening kickoff. Phelps converted from placement. After taking a punt on their own forty, the Admirals began another touchdown march. Phelps passed to Boyd who was downed on the twenty. Brummett and Al- len carried the ball to the five, where Phelps threw a beautiful flat pass to Allen in the end zone. Phelps' kick for the point went wide. With the ball lying on their own forty-nine, Phelps, behind beautiful team blocking, cut back over right tackle, and out-ran the Somerset flash, Gossett, for the score. Phelps again converted to end the Admiral's scoring for the night. , Neither team showed much power in the last half. The Ad- mirals drove to the two yard line in the third quarter, but failed to score on a fourth down pass. Somerset started a drive in the fourth quarter that netted them a score. Rice, the big Somerset fullback, drove from the forty to the eighteen on three plays. Gos- sett threw a short pass to Kidd on the ten who galloped over for Somerset's score. Gossett passed to Williams for the extra point making a 20-7 victory for the Ad- mirals. After playing a bang-up game for three quarters, Allen was tak- en from the game with a bruised hip. Silliman, smashing tackle, received a leg injury and was also removed from the game after holding down his side of the line. cnnnwsws anocenv iWE 'DELIVER PHONES 163 164 THE FARMEIVS ' NATIIJNAL BANK DANVILLE, KY.

Joe Young re- ceived a serious knee injury and will probably see little action for several weeks. With the excep- tion of Young, the squad should be in good shape for the Henry Clay tussle.

Danville, grabbing an early lead, scored ten plays after the opening kick-off, and again mid- way in the fourth quarter. Phelps returned the opening kick-off 38 yards to St. Xavier's 42 yard line. A running and pass- ing attack led by Southwood, Al- len, and Blankenship set the ball on the Xavier 5 yard stripe. On the next play Phelps circled left end for the score. The extra point was good.

Danville again took the offen- sive in the second half and threatened several times before scoring in the final period. The Tigers fumbled on their own 25 with Bratton recovering for Danville. Southwood made a first down when he went from the 20 to the 14. Hitting the line and running the ends, Phelps finally scored from the one foot line. Southwood's strategy was one of the outstanding features of the game, and Kubale, Kinnaird, and Boyd performed brilliantly.

H. S. gridiron. Danville snatched the lead early in the initial period when Rob- ertson went over, after heading a down-field march to the St. Aug- ustine one. Phelps converted. A St. Augustine fumble recovered by Boyd on the twenty, set up another Admiral touchdown when Boyd took Phelp's pass to the six where Robertson went over. Phelpls try for the point afteri' split the uprights. The highlight of the game came in the third quarter, as Phelps sprinted 65 yards for the Admir- a1's third marker. Phelps again converted. Later in the quarter, Phelpls 35 yard punt return put the ball on the visitor's 15 where Brummett went through the mid- dle of the St. Augustine line for the tally. In the final period, Lefty A1- len and Joe Brummett moved the ball deep in St. Augustine terri- tory, where Phelps skirted left end for another six pointer. Dan- ville's final touchdown came late in the game, making the final score 39-0 in favor of the Blue team. Silliman, Boyd, and Montgom- ery were outstanding in the Ad- miral's forward wall.

With Mr. Fred- ericks was Mr. Vasin, yoeman in the United States Navy. 'KI want to explain to some of these youngsters what to expect should they enlist in the navy, was Mr. Fredericks' opening re- mark. 'KI feel sure that a num- ber of boys will enlist without waiting for the Selective Service Act, he added. Advantages of the thirty-three various trade schools were pointed out. For those boys who after to continue their education after high school he suggested class B- 1, a course reserved for young men who will go into officer's training upon graduation. But, he said, even though you do take the required course, special mental and physical tests must be passed before you may become an officer. ' Therefore, it is just as neces- sary for high school boys to develop their bodies as it is to broaden their minds. And he continued, if you do not pass both the aptitude and physical tests, you may see active duty as an apprentice seaman. Seventeen is the age limit, he ex- plained, and if you enlist at seventeen, you will remain in the navy until you are twenty one. If you, enlist at eighteen, the minimum time for which you may enlist is six years. Twelfth Grade Coplas?

Milk is reduced from three cents a half pint to one cent. The difference in price will be paid jointly by the governmentand the cafeterias. Professor E. F. Birckhead, sup- erintendent of schools, asserted that the sale of milk has risen since the installation of the new plan. He feels that the program will be of the utmost value in maintaining the health of the school child. Every child will pay one cent for a half pint of milk, even if he is on the free feeding list.

The Star Spangled Banner is our country's formal expression of national patriotism. It re- presents the unity for which we stand and commands honor and respect. Old Glory gallantly floating over Fort McHenry on September 13, 1814, caused Francis Scott Key to produce the immortal words of The Star Spangled Banner. Dur- ing the night of the bombardment, he was detained by the British for fear he might reveal their plans. By the dawn's early light he could see the Stars and Stripes waving triumphantly over the fort. Being overjoy- ed, he gave vent to his emotions by creat- ing this masterpiece, long to be remembered by the world. Whenever the national anthem is played anywhere persons belonging to the naval or armed service are present, all officers and enlisted men in uniform, covered, should salute at the first note of the anthem, re- taining the position of salute until the last note of the anthem has been played. If not in uniform, citizens should stand at at- tention facing the music except at colors, when they should face toward the colors. If not in uniform and covered, citizens should uncover at the first note of the anthem. No words should be spoken during the entire song. High school to pay homage represents the as Americans, tional anthem students should never forget to this beautiful hymn which unity of our country. We, should be proud of our na- which is known throughout the world. Disrespect to The Star Spangled Banner is disrespect to the United States.

Nearly every boy in school has tried the peroxide experiment, but all have found it unsuccessful. Hair tones ranged from a pinkish white to a livid red, and now, as the hair is slowly growing out, startling two-tone effects are developing. When Emma Lou Roy and Sarah Edith Edwards were asked their opinion on the male perioxide blondes, one of them replied, I think they look cute. Anything for a change!

The Admirals first scoring chance came in the opening min- utes of the game when a Frank- fort punt went out of bounds on their own 35. Phelps moved the ball to the Frankfort 10 in three plays. Southwood knifed 10 yards off right tackle for the marker. Later in the same period, Phelps went inside right end, reversed his field, and galloped 70 yards for another Danville touchdown. A Frankfort fumble, in the shadows of their own goal-posts. gave the Admirals their third scoring opportunity and Phelps made ample use of it, going off guard for the tally.

After Southwood, Allen, and Phelps had moved the ball from their own 17 to Richmond's 43, Allen took the ball on a reverse and passed to Southwood for the touchdown. Phelp's try for an extra point was bad. Late in the first quarter Phelps, on a cutback inside tackle, sped 44 yards for a tally. His kick for the point-after was wide. Danville scored once in the second period when Phelps' took the ball off-tackle and evaded the Purple's secondary for the third Admiral six-pointer.

It is time once again for the lowdown on the lads and lassies of D. H. S. to come to light. Last time the writer of this column practically got mobbed. Here's hoping-! ! ! Of all the boys enrolled in this honorable institution we least suspected Joe Rankin of being such an ardent lover but we find that he and Dimple Newell are by no means inexperienced. The old flames of last year, Georgia and Lefty. are again go- ing strong while Lee and Barbara are still a steady two-some. Say, at least there's one girl around here who really rates! Who else but Minnie Sue could receive a dozen roses from some marine in California. You should have seen the note en- closed. Billy Scent has suddenly taken a new interest in English. Could it be those good looking practice teachers??? The library certainly seems to be the popular setting for many of our most touching ro- mances-We can always find Erma and Guy and Red John- son and J. Huffman there look- ing starry eyed-. We wonder what attraction Lebanon holds for many of the Danville Hi swains! How in- teresting it would be to know!!! Special Notice To Girls: There are a great many males running around here loose and I definite- ly think something should be done about it so in your interest Ilm submitting the following list of names to you: Ed Kubale. Bruce Montgomery, Dumbo ' Hughes, and Red Volner. Well, good luck girls, hope you man- age to vamp one!!! The Jett-White courtship ap- pears to be cooling lately.Martha is often seen with Gene Vaught whileJeptha has turned his at- tention toward L. Barrett. Prune Head Hood is quite a Casanova -you should see the girls that swarm around him in fourth period history class, Hood, let us in on your technique?'??

Cooper and Carol Har- mon have deep crushes on Joe Kirtpatrick while the love of M. Hunt's life is Chris Bright. L. Meade is in love again. This time it's a cute gal from the University. We thought that summer time crushes faded in the winter but J. Norvell is still in love with Buck - They tell me C. Erskine is pretty sweet on Rube Kubale and Sarah E. Edward's dream man is S.

Now for a little news of the teachers-Mr. Lair. in a most secretive manner, made a spec- ial request to a member of the dance committee that Miss Sheehan be asked to help chap- erone the dance after the Henry Clay game. Very subtle, Henry. very subtle! This column would just like to SWEATERS AND SKIRTS 52.95 to 57.95 AT warn L. Eubank that it is a very dangerous situation to have three girls all at once, namely J.

Miss M. Bright Plans Program Presented At High School The combined D.H.S. Glee Clubs assisted by a boy's choir from Broadway and Maple Ave- nue schools presented a Christmas carol program Thursday evening, December 17, in the high school auditorium. Miss Marjorie Bright, director of music in Danville city schools, was in charge of the program. HI Heard the Bells on Christ- mas Day was the first selection on the program. Then the grade school choir, attired in red robes with white collars, sang Christ- mas lullabies. A senior high quartet: Jeptha Jett, Lige Faulconer, Burdis Gid- and Earl Bell sang It Came eon, Upon A Midnight Clear. HO Come All Ye Faithful was the selection of an octet compos- ed of Martha Petroff, Georgia Frenz, Erma Gilliam, Louise Ram- sey, Jeptha Jett, Burdis Gideon, Lige Faulconer, and Earl Bell. Marian Wilkinson was soloist for the occasion, and a brass quar- tet: Jeptha Jett, Joe Strnad, Bur- dis Gideon, and Alvin Hatfield played several Christmas ar- rangements. Hitchhilcing, An American art has been shelved for the duration! Thous- ands have lost their favorite oc- cupation as the country is rapid- ly being stripped of hitch-hikers, now, they are as few and far be- tween as the cars they once thumbed. This new condition can be at- tributed to gas and tire rationing. Even on weekends, crossroads harbor only a few disgusted hitch-hikers who soon give up the whole idea as hopeless. This art was a boon to college boys at the holiday season. Rides home for Christmas and Thanksgiving were plentiful and the money saved was just a gift from the gods. A Lost Art Because of the sad condition of hitch-hikers, the railroads will profit nicely on those who hitch- hiked to save. But the rest who never had any do-re-me to save will just have to stay at home. In the summer the rationing will greatly affect D.H.S. stu- dents. Gone are the days when a cooling dip in Herrington Lake was obtained after a few thumb wagglesf' Soda fountains will help relieve the situation, and per- manent camping at the river will help a few. However, the average person will have to dream of cool snow and iceburgs as a substitute for the old swimming hole. 2 THE LOG Y December, 1942 Gob Grasham Comes Home on Leave From Training Station Jimmy Grash am, Danville High graduate of 1941, returned home on a fourteen day leave from the Great Lakes Naval Training Post after a five weeks training period. It takes a long time to learn to sleep in a hammockj, Jimmy exclaimed, but after about five nights you can catch up on your rest. The boys go to bed at 9:30 and fall out at 5:00 to start things off with a mile and a half run before breakfast. Jim- my says the food is very good, especially on Sunday. The gobs are taught to Wash and roll their clothesg something that is strictly Navy. Everyone at the Training Sta- tion calls him Kentucky, and he thinks the Navy is a great life for he is already a platoon commander after just five weeks of training. On his return to the Great Lakes he will go into submarine school for sixteen weeks and from there-destination unknown.

I'IAI1FIELII'S SUPPLY STORE 124 Fourth St. I Girls Start Duration Facfs N Another fad is sweeping the halls of dear old D.H.S. The girls are not content to cover merely, their hair with a scarf, they have to have one almost the size of a tablecloth. The bigger the scarf, the better! Red and white checked ones lead in popu- larity, but other colors follow in a close second. The Jeep rain hat is another hair covering fad, which has gained popularity with the males also. These bonnets really aid in keeping the rain off, and they are tres ornamental. If some of the older brothers are wondering where their flannel shirts and jackets have gone, just ask Chris Bright and t'Flirt Roy. Cxhris specializes in bright flannel shirts, while Flirt's strong point is J. E.'s jackets. Of course, Margaret Armstrong wears boy's jackets too, but they are her own. Suits are always good, and especially Doris Hi1l's brown and white one with the shirt to match her auburn hair. Striking, eh, what? Milady's head seems to be get- ting most of our attention, but no one minds, especially, if we say how cute Sara Stigall looks in bangs, and how striking Fay Bright is in her red glasses.

WEDDING BELLS Miss Martha Rae Curd, class of '42, and Mr. Robert Durham, class of '43, were married at 11 o'clock November 28, 1942, at the home of Mr. Durham's aunt, Miss Figg, of Ludlow, Kentucky. Hawkins Gives Opinions Of Washington, D. C. Ruth CSadieJ Hawkins, class of '42 and former member of the Log Staff, was at home for a brief visit two weeks ago. She holds a position as as- sistant to the principal clerk in the Construction Corps of Engi- neers. When asked about her work, Sadie replied, The im- mensity of everything is bewild- ering, but once it gets in your blood you ,don't want to leave Washington.

They had come to arrest Boots, the little black and white dog, who has neither. registered nor is an official slave of books,i but who attends classes regularly at D.H.S. The three advanced slowly to- ward the culprit. Boots took one look at the officers in full bat- tle array and promptly retreated under the nearest table, her in- dignant .back bristling with re- sentment. She growled omni- ously. One of the policemen crept for- ward cautiously with a small piece of rope in his hand, but Boots refused to be taken. The two policemen retired to the hall for a conference, and, after deliberation, they suggested that perhaps one of the high school boys could catch the dog. Boots did not wait for the end of the conference or the possible high school boy volun- teer, for she quietly faded out of the picture. However, Boots carried on her regular schedule and appear- ed at her fourth period class just as happy and carefree as if she were not a fugitive from justice. WISE SAYING When we have to choose a book to make a book report The question isn't Is it good! But simply, Is it SHORT? D H S PORTRAIT Charles Allen A scholar and a gentleman! That is our definition of Charles CLeftyJ Allen, one of Danville High's outstanding personalities. Lefty came to Danville from Bloomfield when he was in the seventh grade. Lefty is president of the Sen- ior Class, president of the Ro Club, vice president of the Beta Club, and has recently been vot- ed co-captain of the football team. In the eleventh grade he distinguished himself by making the honor roll regularly, and now he is the only Admiral who makes all A's. Not content with being a good student, Lefty has played half- back on the varsity football team three years and one year on the reserve team. During the Shelby- ville game last year he gained the nick name Scooter because he scooted through the mud and the opposing line to chalk up a score. Science Club Elects VanHook President The Ephraim McDowell Sci- ence Club, with Mrs. Edwards as sponsor, completed its organiza- tion at the first official meeting, November 9. Officers are Ray VanHook, president, Joe Blanken- ship, vice presidentg Joan Farris, secretary, Margaret Armstrong, treasurer. The club has thirty-two mem- bers, a much larger enrollment than in preceding years. We expect to have many in- teresting programs and each mem- ber will carry on some kind of project. Lack of transportation facilities may prevent our attend- ance at the Annual Science Con- vention next spring, says Presi- dent VanHook. Already an article on bird life has been submitted to the Junior Academy of Science Bulletin by VanHook. It will be published in the December issue. All club members are encouraged to write articles and submit them for pub- lication. BUY WAR SAVING STAMPS ville and third in Lexington in the 440 relay. I like Danville Hi! It's a grand school, Lefty declared. He also admitted that physics is his favorite subject and Latin the least interesting. They're all okay, he hastened to add. In his leisure time he enjoys 'ttinkeringn with radios. He builds and repairs all types and has become quite an expert. Last summer he worked for the Boyle County Highway Depart- ment. t'He was a good work- rnan, said Goon Silliman and he ought to know for he was one Girl Reserves Doriote Thanksgiving Gifts At their last meeting in No- vember the Jr. Girl Reserves had a party in the home economics room and each member brought food for a Thanksgiving basket which was added to the dona- tions of the Sr. Girl Reserves. Jean Barker represented the Jr. group in delivering the gifts. The first program in December was a quiz in charge of Jorene Stone and Jean Barker. At this time the girls decided to bring contributions for a Christmas basket. GIRLS AID IN WAR EFFORT Gas rationing took D.H.S. by storm Wednesday morning, N0- vember 25, when the seniors and 8-3 girls were excused from classes to number gas ration cards. These girls have worked before for the Gas Rationing Board, and because they worked so efficient- ly, they were chosen to assist again. Many of the senior girls sold War Bonds and Stamps in Dan- ville stores on the same day, thus doing their small bit for National Defense.

The lights had gone out before on a certain night nearly two thousand years ago, and it was dark in Bethlehem of Judea. Yet on that night a new star was shining. That star aroused the shepherds keeping watch over their flocks. It was bright enough to lead three wise men to a cattle shed where a glowing radiance sur- rounded a Mother and her Child. What if the lights have gone out? Kindle new ones everywhere! There are little chil- dren in whose eyes a light will shine as they clasp the toy you may provide. There are lonely old people whose hearts will be light- ened by your kind words. Kindle new lights in those around you this Christmas! Let your own light shine out! CENTURY OF XMAS CARDS A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year -this phrase has echoed through the air for years and years at the yule- tide season. Just one hundred years ago this message was inscribed on the first Christ- mas card which was made by W. M. Egley, a sixteen-year-old English boy. The pattern of Christmas cards has changed little since Eglcy's first greeting. the original of which hangs in the British Museum unless it has been put away for This year Americans will send over one- half billion cards to spread cheer and happi- ness. Britian has allowed the priorities on cards to be raised, and the British people will send them as usual. Because of the uncertainty, the darkness and gloom of the world this Christmas, these cards, will render a great service by binding scattered families, linking old friends, lend- ing cheer, and lifting the hearts of people all over the world.

This com- munity, this school, and each of us here, is in tune with the world in which we find ourselves,--restless, uncertain, seeking- and given to more wishful thinking than is good for us. Yet, if it were possible to have our most earnest wishes, what would they be? That this war would end, and the hor- ror and injustices it has brought would some how be wiped out. That those we love, in service or in war work-making sacrifices daily that our way of life may continue-might return to their homes and more pleasant occupations. That the task of the day, in school or home or business might be lightened and leave us freer to enjoy the comforts and ease we knew in other years. Or that we might easily win higher grades or greater honors or that our business might reward us with much more money than in any previous season. But this is not the year for such wishes- too much is at stake. Might we not better wish for ourselves, and for all men: that we be given the wisdom to see the health and strength to give ourselves whole heart- edly to the pursuit of this right, and the steadfast will to stay with this task until success rewards us, and right is again the might of the world? Whatever our job or our burden, it should contribute in some Way to the attainment of this goal, and right will again be en- throned in the lives and hearts of men.

Believe it or not there is a boy for every girl in Senior High with eleven Ustagsi' left over for some of the Junior High girls. War .or no war, the boys in D.H.S. Senior High number 125 to the girls' 114. The young saplings in Jun- ior High also have a majority of boys with 137 total compared with 134 girls. However, it is obvious that the Junior High has the edge on the senior group, for the entire school enrollment to date is 510 not including the jani- tors and Henry, our basketball trainer. Ninth graders have the larg- est group in school with a grand total of 193, and even here the boys are in the majority, 57-46. All in all, Danville High School is a happy hunting groundi' for girls.

The high school has secured a T gas ration card and it looks as if almost all the trips can be made. The only ex- ception will be the two day trip to Barbourville and Corbin. This trip will be made if transportation by train is available. Although only two first string men are left from the preceding season, the '42-'43 team seems to be much stronger than last year's. The team spirit is the best that has been shown by any Danville high team in many years. Every boy on the team is willing to learn, and Coach Fitzpatrick says he expects the squad to develop into one of the best he' has coached. J. E. Roy and Carlton Brown are the first team guards. These boys have had very little experi- ence on the varsity up to this year, but both came through with flying colors in their first game, Carlton Brown is probably the best long-shot on the team. Al- though he has not netted a large number of points so far this year, his goals are always timely. J. E. played with the varsity last year but failed to make his letter. He has shown more im- provement than any other ball- player on the squad. He is very good at recovering rebounds and RADIUS!! THE PERFECT CHRISTMAS GIFT R. C.

The pivot position is probablyistole your'honey and nectar. the toughest spot to play on the whole team. At this spot we have Jimmy Hughes. Jimmy is: only fifteen years old and a fresh- man in high school, but his size and ability have gained him a post on the first team. He has had only one year of experience, a season on the reserves. He is an exceptionally good one-hand shoti' and should score a lot of points for the Admirals. a lead which they were able to hold until the final whistle blew. Dopey Phelps led the scoring with six points. J. E. Roy was next, with five. Chandler set the pace for the losers with five. Smooth ball handling by the team and Carlton Brown's shots from the corner were the high- lights of the game. Substitutes for Danville: Brum- mett, Mountjoy, Killion, Cline, Ransdall, and Holtzclaw.

Con- ference game on Cheek Field, No- vember 13. Seven Admirals took part in the scoring parade led by Dopey Phelps who donated five touch- downs and six extra points. Phelps tossed a 40-yard pass to Joe Brurnmett who took the ball on the goal line and stepped over into pay-dirt after Corbinis seven- man line had stalled Danville's running game. A few minutes later Tramwell punted to Phelps who took the ball on his own 45, cut back to the sidelines, and raced the remain- ing distance for a touchdown. The Admirals added three touchdowns in the second period on runs by Southwood and Brum- mett and a blocked-kick recovery' by Volner. Danville tallied five times in the third period with Phelps making four of them. Phelps scored on runs of,13, 58, 30, and 18 yards. Reynolds recovered one of Phelps' kick-offs in the Redhound's end zone for a mark- er. Southwood scored the last Ad- miral touchdown in the last per- iod on a 12 yard pass from Cline, making the final score 74-0. BUY WAR SAVING STAMPS 'x '-:-:- . M Q -2 -::. - ,.

Lefty Allen and C Southwood were chosen as alter- nates but did not take part in the game. The Shriners sponsor- ed the contest and the proceeds went to the Crippled Children's Hospital. Herman played about three fourths of the game and helped the East team chalk up a 12-0 victory. Hermann spent the week be- fore the game as the guest of lthe Shriners at the Lexington Stop Over Station with the rest of the All-Stars. The boys got up at seven o'clock, had break- fast, then practiced until noon. Each day their noon meal was served by a different Lexington club. The movies admitted the All- Stars free of charge, and on the first day, the Shriners presented the boys with white sweaters decorated with All-Star emblems. After the game the boys were given framed certificates stating that they had played on the All- Star team. On Friday they visited the Crippled Children's Hospital.

The game ended a few seconds later with the score standing 17-13 in favor of Danville. Hughes and Pearce tied for high scoring honors with five points each.

Owens and Mr. Henry Lair, to the Armed Forces at the end of the first semester of the '42-,43 school year. Mr. Lair, teacher of history, manager of the book store, and and school treasurer, left for Fort Thomas, Kentucky, after being inducted in the Army. Mr. Owens, band director and teach- er in the commercial department, left for Notre Dame where he will train for a period of four months and then will be commissioned as an ensign in the U. S. Navy. The vacancies created by these resignations were filled by three new teachers. Mrs. Davis, a form- er D.H.S. teacher, succeeded Mr. Owens in the commercial depart- ment. Miss lda Schoene, a gradu- ate of the University of Kentucky and the sister of Miss E. J. Schoene at D.H.S., took Mr. Lair's place. Mr. Warner, head of the music department at Centre Col- lege, became the new band di- rector. ' Ten New Students Enroll In D. H. S. This semester D.H.S. has ac- quired ten new students, four girls and six boys. Gladys Taylor of Bowling Green has come here to finish her senior year, and Charles Sharpe of Mitchellsburg, Ken- tucky, has entered the eleventh grade. New students in the tenth grade are Norman Dockstader, Des Moines, Iowa, and Napoleon Triplett of Cumberland, Ken- tucky. Harold Weldon Huffman of Junction City and Jane Hoffman of Danville, Virginia, are enrolled in the eighth grade, and Robert C. Cloyd, Mitchellsburg, Ken- tucky, and Janet Dockstader of Des Moines, Iowa, have entered the seventh grade. Tally Ho Enters WAGS, Trains To Be Sentry For U. S. Army Another D.H.S. rooter has en- tered the service of his country! Tally Ho Hannah, the Admiral's mascot, joined the WAGS and left Wednesday, January 27, for Walnut Hall, the induction cen- ter, near Lexington. The follow- ing Monday he went to Front Royal, Virginia, where he is to be trained for sentry duty. Tally Ho was born November l, 1939, in the Sander's stable, Millersburg, Kentucky. During a snow storm a few days later, one of the Hannah family selected him from the other four pups and he was taken to his new home in Shelbyville. Being a full blooded Dalmatian, or coach dog, Tally Ho commands the awe and respect of many of his fellows. He enjoys football very much and has missed only three games in his career as mas- cot. His culinary tastesinclude raw beef and ice cream. Johnny, his master, said of the dog's induction, Well, my two brothers are in the army and I thought Tally Ho might as well join up. Danville High will miss the Admiral's mascot, but he has a more important duty now-he's serving Uncle Sam! ATTENTION SENIORS!!! It's time to don your best bib and tucker , muster up a good smile, and have your senior pictures taken. Let's break a record by getting them in early. Operella ls In Rehearsal Gypsy Troubadour ' ls Music Group's Spring Offering The Gypsy Troubadour, an operetta in two acts, will be pre- sented by the music department, under the direction of Miss Mar- jorie Bright, sometime during March. The music for the oper- etta was composed by Don Wil- son, and Effa E. Preston wrote the lyrics. The roles are taken by the fol- lowing: Marian Wilkinson, Rosita, Lige Faulconer, Nikoli, Jeptha Jett, Marko, Carlton Brown, Tom Gordon, Burdis Gideon, Vario, Maxine Caple, Mrs. Jean Jerrold, Georgia Frenz, Mary Matthews, Louise Ramsey, Claire Clayton, Mildred House, Elena, Jayne E. Harlan, J anina, Robert Gray, Todoro, Martha White, Maria, and J. E. Roy, Henry Clayton. Plot Todoro, ruler of a gypsy tribe, has sent his son Nikoli away to get a college education. When Nikoli returns, he announces that he wants to write poetry, publish his works, and marry Claire Clay- ton, pretty, spoiled daughter of a businessman. Todoro has plan- ned for Nikoli to marry Rosita and succeed him as ruler of the tribe. This reverse in plans sad- dens Rosita but heartens Vario, who wants to marry Rosita and rule the tribe himself. Vario cleverly contrives a plan by which he hopes Nikoli will be thrown out of the camp in dis- grace. Instead, Rosita is blamed for Vario's trickery. Rosita, thinking Nikoli is guilty, should- ers the blame, and Nikoli, feel- ing that Rosita has yielded to temptation, admits he is to blame.

The class is open only to juniors and seniors interested in flying. The text used by Mr. Fitzpat- rick was written by Arthur S. Otis and Francis Pope, both out- standing in the field of aviation. It gives the students a general background for the Air Corps. Sections of the book are devoted to aerodynamics, aviation, and meterology. About one fourth of the classwork is math, and the students are assigned problems pertaining to flying which call for a knowledge of higher mathe- matics. Twenty boys are enrolled in the class. They are as follows: George Anderson, Joe Blankin- J. Caldwell Has Accident Jack Caldwell, D.H.S.

Pete, who moved to Danville in 1939 from Arkansas, has been very active in the student gov- ernment of D.H.S., being presi- dent of the Student Council for the past two years. In October 1941 she and Nancibel Riffe re- presented Danville High at a meeting of the Southern Associa- tion of Student Government in Memphis, Tennessee. Martha is also secretary of the Latin Club, vice-president of the Honor Club, and is a member of the Girl Reserves, Junior Red Cross, and Glee Club. This vivacious brunette, having a rich alto voice, appeared with the Oratorio Chorus in their pre- sentation of the 'tMessiah this year and in an octet at the Glee Club's Christmas program. Aich Doneghy Suffers Injuries In Fall Archie Doneghy, head janitor of the city school system for many years, is slowly recovering from injuries suffered when he fell down the steps at his home on December 13. Athletics is one of Arch's hob- bies, so he is an ardent supporter of all D.H.S. athletic teams. He always helps with the scenery for dramatic productions and pre- pares for school banquets as well as looking after the Lost and Found Department. He is not the only Doneghy connected with the school system. His wife, Melinda, has been a teacher at Bate School for many years, while his brother, Jesse, serves as a janitor at Broadway School. Saturdays she holds a job at New- berry's. However, she does find time. to teach a Sunday school class at the First Baptist Church. Considering she has read Lit- tle Women eight times, Louisa Alcott is undoubtedly her favorite author. As for her other preferences-she'll take English grammar as a subject, blue for her color, Madeleine Carroll and Cary Grant as a movie teamg and angel food cake for dessert every- day. The love of Pete's life is Deep in the Heart of Texas for that's where her soldier is stat- ioned. When she finishes high school, she hopes to enroll in a good business college. Some executive will certainly have an attractive secretary when Martha obtains her diploma. OUR DAZE CContinued from page onel Leming, Margaret Armstrong, and Frank Newell.

Miss Elizabeth Hagan DAN CUPID' GOES TO WAR St. Valentine's Day was once a day of sentimental messages furtively slipped under doors or left in mailboxes, a day observed as lovers' festival. That was Valentine's Day prior to 1943. Today Daniel Cupid has quite a time trying to get around on February 14th, the good Saint's Day. Besides ducking' shells, bullets, and buzzing airplanes, side- stepping tanks, jeeps, and peeps, he has a very difficult time trying to deliver his mes- sages of devotion. Love-making is no leisurely occupation now. Boy-friend Bill is off to the Armed Forces, girl-friend Jane is working in a defense job, and high-school Katy is busy day and night with Red Cross, First-Aid courses, and high school duties. So, even though the world seems busier than ever, let us not forget the tradition and custom of Saint Valentine's Day. We are fighting to keep Valentine's Day and other memorable days as a custom. Let us observe the good Saint's Day this year de- spite the war. OBSTACLE COURSES Many prominent Naval Physical Edu- cation instructors are of the opinion that the recently developed obstacle course is one of the quickest and easiest ways to condition men. An obstacle course usually consists of hurdles to jump, walls to scale, narrow pipes for students to crawl through, rope ladders for climbing, broad jumping pits, and hand walking devices. Physical education during war time is of prime importance, besides fitting students for the Armed Forces, it makes them agile and strong. Possibly arrangements could be made with Centre College that would enable Danville High School students to use their course. If this could be arranged, it would be a great asset to the Junior and Senior High students. BOYS SHOU LD GRADUATE Since the government found it necessary to draft the eighteen year old boys ,in our country, education, to some of them, has be- come a minor detail. During the present war education is an important factor. Navigation, the artillery, map making, and many other hundred duties require education. The War Depart- ment has opened many schools and colleges to train the boys in the many fields of service where education is required. The better edu- cation every boy has the better opportunity he has when his day of induction comes! Boys fifteen and sixteen years old in the lower grades who become eighteen during or before their senior year should by all means make an effort to graduate. Taking five subjects each year and summer school every summer, a boy can graduate in three years rather than four. This may prove very much to his advantage in the coming years, when the amount of education he has will be his greatest asset. - PERSONALITY QU IZ 1. What teacher was commonly known as Flash ? ' 2.

For the tender-hearted ones there is St. Valentine's day, The exchange of lacy hearts makes this seem very gay. Edison, who graced this month with his birth, Became one of the greatest inventors of our earth. Abe Lincoln, too, born on one of February's days, Became our President and freed the slaves. How proud of our independence we should be Gained by Washington, Father of our Country ! Although it's the shortest month in the year, To the hearts of Americans it will always be dear. STOP COMMAN DO TACTICS Although many students are unaware of it we have a course in Commando training at D.H.S. This course is not scheduled and no stu- dent is required to take it if he goes home, to the Park, to one of the pool-rooms, or to a hamburger shop for lunch. If the War Department officials ever visit D.H.S., they will open a Commando School in the halls by requiring trainees to compete with the senior boys in the wild rush of the lunch line. One thing is cer- tain-all weaklings will be weeded out! Of course, a few trainees will be trampled to death but, compared with the Army of Atlases that complete the course, this cost will be small. SPIRIT OF 1943 I am only one, But I am oneg I can't do everything, But I can do something, And what I can do, ' And what I should do, By the grace of God I will do. -U. S.

ADMIRALS REI-'USE BID Danville's Admirals will not take part in the All-Kentucky Conference in Louisville this year. This was the first time in five years the Admirals had been ask- ed to take part in conference. Mr. Fitzpatrick explained that the team Would have had to can- cel three scheduled games as a C.K.C. ruling limits the number of games played. Only the best teams in the state are chosen to go to the confer- ence. A lady checking over her groc- ery bill, found this item- One tom cat-fifteen cents.

Title 24-23 AS Big Blue 353 gg A ' Game But Take H The thirteenth jinx caught up with the Admirals when the Henry Clay Blue Devils, who couldn't miss the basket, sank the Admirals' Central Kentucky Conference hopes with a 40 to 21 victory on the winners' floor, February 2. L Mahan, Davis, and Kessinger hit from all angles of the floor and stopped the Admirals' scoring machine cold. , Only in the first quarter were the Admirals within range of the Blue Devils and by the end of the second period Henry Clay had a 22 to 8 advantage. Danville still was unable to get going in the third period and only in the final stanza did the lAdmirals play their usual brand of ball. A , . ' Mahan was high forlthe Devils with 13 points while Ransdall led the Admirals. - The best luck any man can have is never to have-been born: but that seldom happens to anyone. The Tiger Buy your VALENTINE CANDY At The Boyle Pharmacy In Business For Your Health Stages Fmal Rally The Admirals staged a blazing last quarter rally to nose out the Burgin Bulldogs 24-23 in a fast and furious battle on the 1oser's floor, January 6. Burgin took an early lead with two quick goals and was never behind during the first half. Hughes dropped in two charity tosses, and Roy added two more points on a long shot as the first quarter ended with Danville on the short end, 10-4. Danville tightened their de- fense, and the Bulldogs made only two points during the sec- ond quarter. Roy slipped in a crip and followed it up with a two-pointer from the side. South- wood made the score 12-9 on a foul shot as the half ended. Brown led. a scoring spree that tied the score at 13-13. The Bull- dogs again pulled away to lead 17- 13 as the 3rd period closed.. Hughes scored a fast break as the final period began, but Burgin soon increased their lead. With the score standing 22-15, a foul shot by Phelps and goals by Brown, Roy, and Hughes tied the score 22-22. A foul shot by Bradshaw put the Bulldogs one point ahead. With only one minute to play, Brown sank a beautiful shot from the side, giv- ing the Admirals a 24-23 victory. Roy and Brown tied for high scoring honors with 8 points each. Bradshaw was high for Burgin with 7. ' THE WHITE TAVERNSHOP W3 Till! NA - Game number 13 proved to be very unlucky for the Admirals. They suffered their worst defeat of the season at the hands of the Henry Clay Blue Devils, 40-21. Lexington's superior height and sharp-shooting proved to be the means of the Admiral's defeat. Danville's chance of Winning the C. K. C. was about as good as any team's in the conference but the loss to Henry Clay will probably knock them completely out of the race. Their conference record now shows 7 games won, 2 games lost. lk III if lk Much of the credit for the suc- cess of the '43 team is due Coach Fitzpatrick. The boys on his team now are the same boys he has coached, for several years on the Reserves. He has shown great interest in every boy on the squad and should be congratulat- ed on doing a fine coaching job. elf lk lk ll' Our 'tRookies, Brown, Roy, and Hughes are still playing the same flashy type of ball they play- ed at the first of the season. Some first year men break-down when a tough team is played, but these boys always play a cool, aggressive type of ball. ill Ik 41 ll' Danville will be host to the 76 District this year. The dis- tricts have been doubled because of transportation difficulties and a new tournament added. After the district comes the regional, Tarantulas 39-Zl Danville won their fourth C.K. C. contest Friday, January 15, but in so doing turned in their worse hardwood performance of the season as the Admirals trounced the Nicholasville Tarantulas, 39 to 21, in the local gym. Danville led all the way, but several times during the contest Nicholasville was within Winning range of the over confident Ad- mirals, and only in the last period did the Fitzpatrickmen get their offense rolling. Nicholasville used a fast break that, at times, had five Tarantulas racing for the basket with no Admirals between them and two points, but Nicholasville usually nissed their crips. The Admirals led 11 to 7 at the end of the first period, and 14 to 9-at the intermission. With the score 23 to 17 in their favor going into the final stanza, the Admirals talked it over and decided on strategy that netted them 16 points and their fourth C.K.C. victory. Jimmy Hughes was far ahead of the other scorers with 17 points. Melet your friends as usual, but a new addition, the sectional, has been added.

Lead One of the largest crowds ever to witness a basketball game in Danville saw the Harrodsburg Pioneers suffer their first setback of the present season at the hands of the Danville Admirals by the score of 20 to 15, January 22. Danville's victory boosted them into fourth place in the C.K.C. race and deprived Harrodsburg of the Conference leadership. Only by making a blazing Frank Merriwell finish were the Admirals able to overcome Harrodsburg's five-point half- time lead and grab the final victory. Roy opened the scoring with a crip to give the Admirals a 2 to 0 lead. Harrodsburg immediately knotted the count on a sleeper by Wilder and went out in front when Sanders sank a one-handed shot from the side. Harrodsburg dominated the scoring in the second period and at intermission were leading 11 to 6 as Danvi1le's hopes of vic- tory began to fade. The Admirals came back strong in the second half and slowly but surely overtook the weaken- ing Pioneers. A side-shot by Hughes and a long shot by Phelps put the Ad- mirals back in the game, and by You're Off To A H EAD START with Hair Styles From FLElllING'S the end of the third period the Pioneers were holding only a 14 to 13 advantage. With Powell out of the contest on personals and the game tied at 15-15, Harrodsburg became un- nerved and called two successive time outs in a futile effort to stop the hard-driving Admirals. Only four minutes remained in the game when Brown sank a free throw to send the Admirals out in front, 16 to 15. Phelps then made the count 18 to '15 on a long shot and Danville began freezing the ball. Harrodsburg committed foul after foul in a frantic effort to get the ball. Southwood put the game oniice when he intercepted a Pioneer pass and dribbled in for a crip as the game ended. Phelps was the outstanding scorer with a night's total of nine while Rue led the losers' with five tallies. W. Goggin lr., Master Farmer, Sells Burley Crop For 5684.40 Walter Goggin Jr., D.H.S. stu- dent and active 4-H Club mem- ber, received S684.40 Friday, January 15, at the Farmer's Ware- house for a 1,442 pound crop of burley tobacco which averaged S47.46. This tobacco was raised on one acre of the Goggin's farm on the Perryville Pike. Walter, per- haps the youngest person to sell tobacco this season in this local- ity, set out his burley crop last June. He cultivated it during the summer, cut it in August, and stripped it during his Christmas vacation. My father took the tobacco to the warehouse Friday morning, and when I got there after school, my crop had been sold, he stat- ed. Selling at a nice price, he received 55c for two baskets, 54c for one, and 37c for the other. Because he was so successful with his first tobacco, Walter plans to reinvest in another crop this year, and to buy war bonds. Shawnee's Scalp ls Blue's Prize After Brilliant Game ' Danville played their best ball of the year in defeating the Win- chester Shawnees 35 to 22 on the Admiral's floor, Tuesday, Janu- ary 12. This victory over Win- chester Was Danville's third Con- ference win in four starts. Brown sank a one-handed shot from the side to give a 2 to 0 lead they never relinquished. After- wards Hughes made a pivot shot and before the Shawnees could recover the Admirals were out in front by ten points. Danville kept up their terrific scoring pace until the last few minutes of the second period when Fitzpatrick sent in his Reserves. At intermission the score stood Danville 24, Winchester 12. Winchester played a better game during the last two quar- ters than they did the first half, holding the Admirals to eleven points while they registered ten. The Admiral's zone defense completely bottled-up the Shaw- nees, scoring ace, Cottengin, hold- ing him to one field goal. Jimmy Hughes sank five field goals and two free throws for a total of twelve points to cap scoring honors. Norton, the Shawnee's center, was high for the losers with seven tallies.

Danville scored first and was never behind: leading 8 to 0 at the end of the first quarter, 18 to 2 at intermission, and 32 to 8 going into the final period. Only seven personal fouls were called against the two quintets, a very unusual occurrence for a Danville-Somerset bout which usually is very rough. Jimmy Hughes and Carlton Brown paced the Admirals at- tack, scoring 12 and 10 points re- spectively.

Every- one knows that girl-she's Fay Bright, a popular senior with Ha finger in every pien cooking in D. H. S. Fay thinks that being chosen co-editor of The Log is her great- est honor. However, her journal- istic career started last year when she became sports editor, the only girl who has held this office in the history of the school. The year i42 was for Fay for she was ball Queen, and, by of the student body, a lucky one chosen Foot- popular vote was elected to appear as 'tThe Spirit of Ken- tucky in Danvillels Sesquicenten- nial Exposition. As she is an excellent science student, she represented the school in the Scholastic Biology Test in 1941. She served as presi- dent of the Science Club last year and is vice-president of the orga- nization now. Biology is to be her major subject in college. Fay had the honor of being chosen a member of the Beta Club in her junior year, and now holds the position as secretary of that organization. The Senior Class also chose her as its secre- tary. Yellow, not the conventional red or blue, is Fay's favorite color, but she does have a weakness for red plaid hair ribbons. Fay has the romantic lead in the senior play, Skidding .

They are placed on their honor to do so, and should feel that it is their duty to attend school daily. Private Leland F. Wisner, who is now sta- tioned at Lowry Field, Denver, Colorado, states, There is one thing different about going to school in the army and going to school at home. You could skip in high school, but if you don't want to go out and dig a six by six hole, you go to school here. After the hole is dug, you put the dirt back in again. America is at war! Our country needs educated men and women to carry on that war. Intelligent people will be required to reconstruct the world after the war. Are you preparing yourself now for future service by going to school regularly? Are you taking advantage of the instructions given daily at Danville High School? Every boy and girl should attend school everyday that it is possible to do so. Classes advance daily. If you are absent, you fail to go forward with your class. If many stu- dents are absent, the advancement of the group may be affected. Time, especially now, is precious. For boys who will be called or enter the service, a high school very important. An army of graduates is far superior to one gent men. Girls, also, are now to the aid of the government, i ,7,m Y , who plan to education is high school of unintelli- being called and a high school education is essential. Therefore, high school students are demonstrating their loyalty to the United States when they at- tend school regularly. UN I FORMS FASCI NATE A That old saying, There's something about a uniform, has proved true, in more ways than one, since the Army Air Crew Students came to Danville. Girls who have always been known as ardent man-haters can now be seen tak- ing the long way to school, the way that leads through the Centre Campus. Lunch period sees D.H.S.'s Veronica Lakes, Hedy Lamarrs, and Dorothy Lamours hang- ing out of the windows on the west side of the main building looking longingly to- ward the College. During home room per- iod feminine voices can be heard discussing the sweet melodies that fill the air when the cadets are marching. A When one girl was asked her opinion of the air corps students, her eyes sought the window. There go two, she screamed and dashed away to get a better view. So girls, take heed and beware of the ldes or March, April, and May! The boys did not come here seeking romance. They came here to study at Centre College, and that's what they intend to do, even if it is spring! 1 THAN KS- A MILLION The Log Staff of Danville High School wishes to express its thanks to the advertisers who have sponsored our publication during this school year. Our paper is run almost entirely by the money secured from adver- tising. We print six editions of the Log, including the Senior edition and about five hundred copies are printed each time. The senior edition, which contains the pictures of the graduating class and the speeches used on class night, is 'very expensive to print. It would be impossible for the high school to assume this expense if it were not for the cooperation of the business houses of Dan- ville. People sometimes ask, uWhy put an ad in the Log? The answer is-students read their Logs and so do the student's parents. Stu- dents and parents alike appreciate the mer- chants' help and patronize their advertisers. This year, despite the unsettled economic conditions, the Danville merchants have con- tinued to support their school paper. You prove your faith in America's victory over the evil forces of Nazi Germany and Japan when you buy war Savings Bonds or Stamps. SPRING IS SPRUNG When the robin's cheery song greets you And the air smells sweet and cleang When your heart feels like a ray of light, You know that it is spring! Girls get out their roller skates, Boys get out their kites, Start a game of marbles Or tussle in friendly fights. The high school boy can't study, He gazes into space, Girls, too, take new interest In the matrimonial race. Spring's a wonderful season, As you and I can see, But it's awfully hard on school-work, Teachers and students agree! ,Tomorrow Everyone agrees that tomorrow is other day and, when that day dawns, will you be prepared for the demands it will make upon you?

Rawlings This vivid and fascinating nar- rative by the author of The Yearling has all the boundless human appeal of its Pulitzer Prize winning predecessor. It is the story of a sophisti- cated city woman's experiences in learning to live on the soil and to love the people of the soil. Sub-tropical inner Florida is the setting for this picturesque tale. One of the best chapters is Toady Frogs, Lizards, Anties and Varmitsi' which is almost all pure description remarkably well done. Then there is a stark and strange story in the narrative of Gee- chee, the savage black woman whose passion for her mistress was almost as fierce as her need for liquor. Anyone of the characters in this book could easily be the hero or heroine in a full length novel, for the background against which they move is everlastingly en- chanting. Mildred House They Were Expendoble William L. White Students, here it is, a book packed with thrills, by William L. White! It is a story of the Jap invasion of Manila. Two men, Lieutenants Bulkely and Kelly, tell of their hair-rais- ing experiences in the Navy's newest and speediest torpedo boats. When Bataan fell to the Japs, it was this squadron that took MacArthur and his family safely out of the islands and on to where they took a plane for Australia. Some of the high points of the story come when these small boats attack some of the cruisers and destroyers of the imperial fleet and sink or damage the large boats. The retreats of the tor- pedo boats are also very remark- able, and when they are attacked by Jap planes, they shoot down a couple and escape. They have trouble with their gas supply, their food is running low, and many other things hap- pen which add up to a thrilling and exciting book.

Danville had defeated the Briar Jumpers 46-24 at Danville earlier in the season. Brown opened the scoring for Danville with a long shot from the side. The Big Blues had little trouble holding the lead through- out the first half, but had they not missed numerous easy shots, the score would probably have been more like the game played at Danville. McKee kept the Jump- ers in the game with four bas- kets as the half ended with Dan- ville on the long end of a 13-8 count. Danville's zone defense bottled up McKee the second half, and held him to one foul shot. The Jumpers managed to stick with the Admirals the third quarter, both teams gathering seven points apiece. With the score standing 20-15 in favor of the Admirals, the last stanza began with both teams matching basket for basket. The Jumpers pulled up to within three points of the Admirals with less than two minutes to play, but a pivot shot by Hughes put the game on ice, and the score ended with Somerset on the short end of a 27-22 score. llADFlEl.D'S Supply Store 124 Fourth Si. 113 Tl-liivln f f The Admirals completed the '42-'43 season with a record of twenty one games won and four lost.

The Big Blues had little trouble in defeating Barbourville, 48-27, in the first game on February 12. Phelps started the scoring with two quick crips, and the Admirals had piled up a ten point lead by half time. Brown found the range the second half and chalked up 18 points to take high scoring honors for the night. Phelps was close behind with 13 points. Corbin offered a little more competition the next night, but Danville came out on the long end of the score, 40-33. Danville managed to stay ahead of the Redhounds during the first half to lead 16-15 at half time, but again Brown began to con- nect from the floor, and the Admirals pulled away in the third quarter.

Southwood, playing his usual stellar floor game, intercepted many passes as the Bulldogs at- tempted their fast break against. the weak defense offered by the Blue team.

He suffered a fractured skull and several broken bones, but we are glad Arch has recovered and is back at work in the halls of D.H.S.

Since we first saw the Htentsl' we have heard that they are zoot hats, be- longing to the Zoot family. Every- one to his opinion! Anyway, George and Allen deserve admi- ration for wearing the hats in public. 1 Pls als if 'li When Mr. Young came to school on May 3, he found that someone had broken into his room and stolen the Pep Club money out of his cabinet. Stealing money is bad enough, but the Pep Club Works hardto get money to buy sweaters for the athletic depart- ment and tries in every Way to help with school projects. The money belonged to the students, not the school, and it seems too bad the students canft even earn money to help their school with- out someone stealing it. il: Pls wk 41 Once upon a time a little girl was walking to school in the rain. Her name was Mary Jane. The little girl's shoe string was un- tied so she leaned against a shiny red car to tie it. The car had a burglar alarm on it and she set the alarm off. Mary Jane went on to school, very shaken. The alarm rang for about thirty minutes. Moral-Don't lean on red cars which have burglar alarms. Mary Jane Turley take note!

Dinner invitations were previ- ously sent and answered in Latin. Members of the Latin Club and six invited guests were present. Dr. Laura Robinson, language teacher at Centre Col- lege, was the guest speaker. Two tables were placed to- gether in the form of a T, and a patriotic color scheme was at- tractively carried, out. Blue vases containing red and white peonies were used, and blue program cards served as place cards. Two large candlabra stood on the floor behind the guest speakerfs table. These, with candles on the table, gave light for the occasion. Following the first course of the banquet, Martha Petroff gave a history of the Club's activities. Between the second and third courses Georgia Frenz and Louise Ramsey, accompanied by Mrs. Frenz, sang three songs, As Time Goes By, UI Heard a Forest Pray- in-g, and 'fAudi Nos Cum Te Vocamusf' Dr. Robinson gave a delightful talk on Roman Buildings. Dolly Bandy, the Inter Nos's president, served as master of ceremonies, and presented Dr. Robinson with flowers from the club following her speech. Miss Edna Woford, club advisor was also given flow- ers.

Miff Moel and his troubadors from Frankfort furnished the music. During the evening there were six no-breaks, a Hjunior-senior special, and a conga chain led by Carol Ann Mannini. Caroline Bean directed the in- tricate grand march formations. The gym was decorated with blue and white crepe paper and lattices covered with evergreens enclosed the room. , Neal Gordon, Mary Jane Tur- ley, and Guy Best were in charge of arrangements with the or- chestra. The juniors who made up the decoration committee were as follows: Dottie Robinson, chair- man, Gloria Stephenson, Alice Catron, Lee Guthrie, Joe Strnad, Richard Guerrant, and the of- ficers of the junior class. Corinna Cook headed the pub- licity committee with Betty Davis, Bobby Powell, and Sammy Holtz- claw assisting her. junior Girl Reserves Elect Officers The Junior Girl Reserves held their regular meeting in Miss Lanier's room on May 3, and elected officers for the 1943-441 year. Officers elected are as fol- lows: Jean Barker, presidentg Jorine S t o n e , vice-president, Mary Lee Davis, secretary. For their main project this year the club undertook Red Cross work. Sixteen sweaters and forty kit bags were made and turned in. Many of the girls rolled band- ages on Saturday morning at the Red Cross center. .2 THE LOG , May. 1943 Giant Fortress Plays ' Leap-Frog Over Danville, Ky. The annual basketball game be- tween the seniors and the teach- ers had just begun. Everyone was deeply engrossed in the game when a dark, sinister shadow slipped past one of the high windows of the gym. Few people noticed the black shape flitting by, and those that did thought they had seen a bird or maybe Superman.'! The game continued though a few people were beginning to wonder what thatfblack thingv had been. Suddenly there it was again, zooming by the windowsg now the students could hear the roar of powerful motors. In less time than it takes to say it, the gym was empty. Even the teachers and dignified seniors ran out to see what was going on. What they saw was well worth seeingg a big flying fortress was playing leap-frog over the roof- tops of the town. The giant bom- ber sailed over the tree tops and around theschool buildings as some two hundred fascinated high school students pointed skyward and yelled, There it goes! Here it comes! Look at the big guns! and There's a man in there! If Uncle Sam's big bombers cause as much havoc among the Japs and Germans, there's no doubt about the end of the,war being very near. 1 S U m m 6 I' We Took to the Woods Louise Dickinson Rich This exciting story of a real i'Maine Family Robinson takes place in the heart of the Rangly Lake Region of Maine. These regions are inhabited by only the wild animals such as deer and bear, and are covered by deep, green forest. t'We Took to the Woods is truly an adventurous autobiog- raphy, expressing the wonderful life of the present day pioneers. There is drama in the log drives in the early spring as the tim- ber is brought down the river from the upper lake, and the ef- fect of hunting food for their own survival often causes much con- sideration. Everyday events play an im- portant part in this book. Each day takes on a more thrilling episode. There are many humorous ele- ments in the book: the adoption of the three-day old skunk, Rolo, the laziness of the t'husky dog, who is a descendant of one of Admiral Byrd's dogsg and the Hfightingn cat who rules the house. There is never a dull moment in the life of the Riches, number- ing three, their handyman, and a very few neighbors.

R ea din g The Human Comedy William Saroyan This realistic story of a srriall town American family well de- serves its name. The very human, very lovable, Macaulay family of Ithaca, California, finds con- tentment in each small detail of everyday life. Ulysses, the youngest of the Macaulay's, is fascinated by every gopher hole, every new bird's nest, and every train that passes through Ithaca on its way to the Big City. His mother answers the small boy's never ending questions with patience and philosophy found in few 'fbook charactersf' Homer Macaulay, fourteen, helps support the family by deliv- ering telegrams. He wants very much to be like his brother, Mar- cus, who is in the Army. Marcus, however, feels that Homer will be the most successful member of the family. Mr. Grogan, the telegraph oper- ator, is one of Homer's best friends. He is a kindly, philoso- phic old man who has allowed his love for liquor to endanger his job. Homer enjoys dashing about town on his bicycle delivering telegrams, but when the telegram contains the words The depart- ment of war regrets to inform you, Homer suffers almost as much as the person to whom the telegram was delivered. Finally, one day, Homer has to deliver one of those telegrams to his own mother. Marcus is dead! This book is one of the best written in war-time America. It will live long after many of its contemporary books are forgot- ten. Joan Farris If you have water on the knee, wear pumps. --Exchange Q Miss Adonis Sponsors P.T.A.

High Office Robert Rodes was elected presi- dent of the junior student body May 4, amid great excitement. When Bill Blankinship called for nominations, seven students were chosen as candidates. These were finally narrowed down to two, Jeannine Stephenson and Robert Rodes. It was soon evident that the result of the voting was just a question of 'whether there were more boys or girls in junior high school. Every one held their breath while Mrs. Fitzpatrick, Mrs. Rosen, and Mr. Young counted the votes, and excitement was at a peak when the Vote was tied 70- 70. Blankinship clamored for order and asked that the voting be repeated. Robert Rodes' name was called which was a signal for the boys to stand. One girl slowly rose to her feet. The boys whistled and cheered and two other fair damsels, thus encourag- ed, stood also, and Robert Rodes was elected by a majority of three votes. We see our flag as we pass by.

A Yes, it seems that the Air Corps has landed and the situa- tion is well in hand. Or is it? The local Romeos seem quite up- set about the whole matter. Since the conversion of Cen- tre College to a military training center, high school classes are disrupted regularly as the air crew students march down Col- lege Street. The minute our local lassies see them march by, sing- ing at the top of their powerful lungs, chaos reigns in D.H.S. Everyone rushes to the windows, including a few unattached teachers. Yes, Danville has turned out en masse to welcome the young aviation cadets and air crew stu- dents, and the girls of D.H.S. are certainly doing their part.

Students throw their books in the closet, heave a sigh of relief, and set- tle down for the long lazy summer days. But .America is at war! Urgent calls are going out everywhere for help of any kind, and opportunities- abound even for the inex- perienced. What will you do to relieve the manpower shortages? What part do you plan to play in the war effort this summer? As Kentucky is an agricultural state many fields are open for patriotic service. Any boy can make himself invaluable to the busy farmer. Even farmerettes will prob- ably be welcomed to help harvest the crops. Or perhaps you prefer to dream of a big executive desk in front of you. The path to that desk can begin in the offices of Danville. Even a little shorthand and typing will secure a job these days. Clerking gives you opportunities to learn poise in meeting people and helps you dis- cover if you have a knack for sales talk. If you are especially ambitious try a vic- tory garden. There's a real thrill in eat- ing vegetables you have grown. Girls can learn that half forgotten art of canning, for to have a can of peas next winter without losing precious points would be quite a treat. But whatever your plans for this summer may be, think seriously about helping Uncle Sam. After all, voluntary work now, elimi- nates the possibility of Axis planned work later. Let's prove our superiority to the Hitler youth, who Work under the whip, by doing our part gladly. What we do today, will create the world of tomorrow. And that world of tomorrow must be ours!

Coach Dexter drilled the boys mostly on fundamentals during the two weeks practice and the boys seemed to shape-up nicely. There should be much competition for every spot on the team but, at the present, these boys seem to hold a slight edge: Sk Sk Bk Sk A Ends: Although three wingmen were lost from last year's squad, Jimmy Hughes and Bobby Bright should be very capable of holding down these positions. Jimmy is an exceptionally good defensive end and should prove to be a good pass receiver. Bobby has had very little experience but, with a little improvement, he will be very capable of first team berth.

Don Fyfe, Glenn Lamb, Frank Wolf, and Guy Best are all working hard to fill the gap. Fyfe and Lamb seem to have the edge because of their size. XF If if 42 Guards: With the return of 'tRed Volner and Billy Cinna- mon from last year's team, this should be the strong point of the line. Volner is probably the best defensive guard to play on the Big Blue in many years. Cinna- mon saw considerable service last year and with his size and ex- perience, he and Volner should be X552 Zgnfs Q a r 2'i: Y ron . A Q i' W i PAINT NOW! DEFEND YOUR HOME from DEPRECIATIOTN H. GUUMER 81 SUNS two of the best guards in the state next season. Sk Sk lk Sf Center: With a year ofservice on the first string behind him, Ed Kubale should be the best center in the state next year. As yet, Ed has never made a bad pass in a game. He has proved to be a good defensive man, against both running and passing plays. Young- er brother, Rube, should be a very capable Reserve. Pls ik if Ik Fullback: Milton Massey will probably hold down the ball- handling position next fall. He has had only one year of ex- perience on the Reserves, but he has shown great possibilities in spring practice and should make a fine back. lk ll' if if Halfbacks: Three boys are fighting hard to fill the two half- back posts. These boys are Joe Young, Sammy Holtzclaw, and Sonny Dykes. Holtzclaw was a sub wingback last year and has proved to be a capable ball car- rier. Young is probably the best passer on the squad and is also a speedster. Dykes played full- back on the Reserves last Year, but his ability to pass left hand- ed has changed him to halfback. Ik if if ill Quarter back: Joe Brummett, the only returning first string back, will handle the signal call- ing. He will probably do most of the kicking and passing. The outstanding fact about this boy is that he has played every position in the backfield and will prob- ably do so again next year. Then, there's the one about the moron that took the street car home and his mother made him take it back. The Homespun Congratulations Danvmds Seniors! Best 1 .

Under the supervision of Coach Zeke Dexter, 26 boys reported for the first day of practice. Out of this squad, there were 15 let- termen. There are only 3 first team men returning from last years team. They are Ed Kubale, centerg James Volner, guard, and Joe Brummett, back. The team spirit shown by this group of young and inexperi- enced boys is probably the best ever witnessed during a spring practice. Coach Dexter was well pleased with the improvement shown in the two weeks practice that was held. An additional two weeks of practice were plan- ned, but Zeke received his call to the Army and left Danville on April 14. The barring of eighteen year old boys struck the Admirals a terrific blow. The squad will greatly miss the services of All- State halfback Don Phelps, guard Ray Bratton who received Honor- able Mention All-State last year, and end Stanley Boyd, who is Varsity Basketball Team Receives Awards Coach Harry Fitzpatrick award- ed the members of the varsity basketball squad with sweaters and bars at the close of the sea- son. The following boys received awards: J. E. Roy and Jay Oatts received sweaters, bars were awarded to Jim Hughes, Don Phelps, Lawrence Mountjoy, Carl- ton Brown, Jim Volner, Everett Ransdall, and Joe Brummett. Stars were given to Captain Leonard Southwood and Co-cap- tain Eugene Cline. The Pep Club, under the spon- sorship of Mr. Young, sold pen- cils, candy, and other articles throughout the year to obtain the money for the awards. Tennis Club Organizes At their spring organization meeting on Wednesday, April 14, the Tennis Club elected the fol- lowing officers: Carlton Brown, president, Mary Jane Turley, vice-president, and Guy Richard- son, secretary-treasurer. Plans for the season were made at this meeting by the members and Mrs. Rosen, the advisor. Un- der the supervision of Mrs. Rosen, work was immediately begun on the courts, and they were soon in good order. one of the best pass receivers ever to appear with the Big Blues. Danville Track Team Takes Second Place ln Regional Clash With only three days of prac- tice, under the leadership of Eben Henson, captain of the 1941 track squad, the Danville trackmen took second place in the regional meet held at Lexington, Friday, May 7, Henry Clay's Blue Devils placed first with 56 points. Dan- ville was second with 45 points. Third place went to Berea Aca- demy, 18 points, fourth, Lafayette 105 Versailles, 5, and Maysville 3. Danville took six first places, Henry Clay four, and Versailles and Berea one each. Dopey Phelps won the 100-yard and 200-yard dashes, the broad jump, and placed third in the shot put. Leonard Southwood took first place in both the 120-yard high hurdles and the 220-yard low hurdles, breaking the regional record in the latter event. He placed second in the pole vault behind Lawrence ,Mountjoy who took first place in this event. The Admirals took several oth- er qualfying places for the state imeet. Charles Allen placed fourth in the 100-yard dash, an'l Joe Brummett got the same rating in the low hurdles. Glenn Lamb and Joe Blankenship placed thirl and fourth respectively in the 440-yard dash, and Earl Bell finished fourth in the mile run. Danville High was represented in the state meet on May 14 by the boys who qualified in the regional meet. Winners of the first four places in each event are eligible to complete in this meet.

DANVILLE, KY. THE LOG May. 1943 Well, kids, here's the last one- get ready to blush!!! Cadets, cadets, cadets!! Every- one has a cadet. To list all the females in D.H.S. would be no exaggeration, but here goes with some of the more serious affairs. A. C. Rogers is really going places with a certain one named Tommy Sherlock. Also Georgia Frenz be- lieves in having more than one on her string. Carol Ann Man- nini really- misses her one and, only, John Ruehle since he has gone to 'tpre-flight. ' More than one cadet thinks Mary Jo Brown is awfully cute, and June Norvell and Dorothy D. Golf surely rate with them! Oh yes, we mustnit forget to mention Carol Harmon,! Jayne E. Harlan, and Louise Bar- ren. , At last we've discovered Earl Be1l's heart interest.- Her name is! Katherine Demaree and she's one! of those Hogtown dames. Bud- dy Bright is also an admirer of! Hogtown or shall we say an admirer of Cidy Russell. Speak- ing of the Bright family, what do 1 you think about Fay's Phi Delt pin? I'm beginning to feel like Cupid and here's why-In the last edi- tion Crip and Ann Simmon's names were linked together just for the novelty of the thing, but 'they took me seriously and de- cided that the only thing left for them to do was fall in love so I wouldn't be a story-teller. And now, it has blossomed into a romance. So--o-o, I feel like Cupid! It seems like Joan Cooper has been taken over by a newcomer to Danville, George Walsh. We wonder why Katherine Dunn blushes so when anyone mentions George White's name. Could he be her secret passion? George's latest twit is on S. E. Edwards! Landon Birckhead and T. Grif- fin are both striving for the af- fections of H. Cunningham. It is also quite evident that Claude Curtsinger is cr-a-zy about B. Armstrong. Flirt Roy has plenty of suit- ors, but Fuzzy Dunn seems to be taking up the greatest part of her time. If anyone would like to ac- quire some information about Junction City just ask Lucille De- vine. I understand she really knows the ropes over that way! A most interesting note was found floating around Mr. Wo- ford's room. It was addressed to Margaret Cook and read as fol- lows: Francis Hannah has a crush on you, and what a crush! He admitted it to me. Here was the'answer: What do you take me for anyhow? Iive known it foreverll' Flash! Another romance bud- ding! Just ask Jack Gray and Mary Matthews. Betty Wilson has certainly cap- tured the heart of that handsome he-man, Don Vic Fyfe. The next victim on my list is none other than Bobby Ander- son who is really making pro- gress with Lois Massey! Now let me think-Oh yes! We can't let Dopey and Sarry Stigall put'one over on us by escaping attention. Or Ray Brat- ton and Ethyl May! Just watch those two if you want to learn something new in love making! Here is a problem for you to solve: Lucy Freeman and G. Rich- ardson make such a nice couple, and yet, Joe Strnad is being al- r lowed to cut in' scandalously- Something really should be done so Ilm leaving it up to you. No severe measures allowed! They say the case between P. Clark and Milton Massey is get- ting quite serious- You should see the notes that Joyce Shannon has been getting from John Caldwell. I under- stand they're on the beam. Ethyl Hill should really feel flattered. Not many girls receive long-distance calls like she does. Incidentally Sam May is always on the other end of the line. Congratulations to Elizabeth Boring! She's sporting a dia- mond on her third finger, left hand! WANT ADS Wanted-A new lane to replace the overpopulated Gentry's Lane. Lost-One heart, when last seen it was headed toward Frank- fort to Dot Benassi. Finder please return to R. Chrisman. Wanted--Betty J. Dunn to make up her mind whether is is Joe? Lee? Bobby? Red ? For Rent-Part of Alex Mont- gomery's sense of humor. Notice- Gentry Akin would like to -have David Brandenburg leave E. Eastham alone. - Wanted-A girl for B. Montgom- ery to date. He's been a bache- lor long enough. Lost - Johnny Hannah's Latin Club pin to Bobbie Burke. Wanted--The cadets to leave town because they're taking up too much of V. Lanham's time. -Signed Alvin Hatfield. Found-An engagement ring on Dolly Bandy's finger. By the wayg the prospective bride- groom is Edward Stratton. Notice--Mary J. Turley is defi- nitely that wayl' about Rich- ard Guerrant. Well, chi1luns this here is our last dirt-dishing for the year, but I'll be back next fall to make some more enemies. No kidding, it has been fun and I hope every- one took my cracks in the same spirit in which they were given! Roses are red, Violets are blue, I must say goodbye, to you.

The war has affected our school routine and many members of our class. Only seventy-nine of us are here together this year, looking back over our social and scholastic ex- periences. From the first we have had star athletes in every sport. Just to mention a few-there were Southwood, Allen, Silliman, Kin- naird, and Blankinship in foot- ball, Southwood, Roy, Brown, Cline, Ransdell, and Mountjoy in basketball, and Southwood, Simp- son and Allen in track. Most of these boys won individual honors in the various sports. Five seniors were cheerleaders: Marian Wilkinson, Ethyl Hill, Fuzzy Dunn, Jimmy Stagg, and Ray Chrisman. Many of our classmates belong- ed to the orchestra and the march- ing band. This year's band was led by J. E. Roy and Margaret Armstrong. Some senior boys organized the One O'Clock Jumpersj, an organization that has had a great deal of success the past few months. We have outstanding scholars in our class, among them are Vir- ginia Lanham, Joan Farris, Charles Allen, and Stratton Lee. The most talented members of the Danville High Glee Club are seniors.

To the faculty and Mr. Boyd we leave our sincere thanks for their never tiring efforts to fit us for the unknown trails of the life that we are about to tread.

To the love sick Sophomores we will our excess accumulation of wisdom and beauty by which we have become so renown in the past four years. For the green Freshman we have nothing but pity.

As I Walked around the Hedgeville city square, whom should I meet but Mammy Yokum! When I recovered from the shock of seeing the little old lady in our city, I realized she was just the person for whom I had been looking. I told her the class of '43 had appointed me class prophet, and asked her if she could show me how to con- jure up a vision of what the years would bring to each of us. Of course, we've all read about Mammy's wonderful ability to conjure up visions. She was glad to lend a help- ful hand and told me all that I had to do was make an X on my forehead with blood, spin around three times and bop my haid on the wall, all of which I did, and this is what my vision revealed to me of our future years: I found myself in the Park, the Times Square of Danville, and therefore the best place to catch up on the latest news and chat- ter. Vast changes had been wrought in the old joint. I saw velvet carpets on the floor, oil paintings on the wall, and there was no cover charge! In the first booth sat Marian Wilkinson, and I wasn't surpris- ed to find that she was America's greatest musical and dramatic star. Across the table from her sat Bobby Hatchett, hero of the season's world series, autograph- ing baseballs. The door opened and in walk- ed the glamorous Powers model, Edna Eastham, escorted by Gen- try Aiken, head of the F.B.I. I was pushed aside as Colonel Ray Chrisman, still the Beau Brum- mel of Danville, rushed up to greet her. Suddenly the most completely toe-tickling music I'd ever heard reached my ears. Someone told me the nationts top orchestra was playing and my old classmates J. E. Roy, Jeptha Jett, Burdis Gid- eon, and Alvin Hatfield, had or- ganized it and were responsible for the bandts success. A talented dancing team, Edna Caldwell and her partner, was the main attraction of the floor show. I wandered into the private din- ing room where some of the '42- '43 Admirals were having a re- union. I saw Billy Silliman, head of an organization designed to right the wrongs of the world. To his left sat Leonard South- wood, football coach at West Point. Next, I saw Bruce Montgomery, leisurely plantation owner from Mississippi. Across the table sat Charles Allen, brilliant, engineer who had just completed the world's first suspended airport. I asked about Joe Blankinship and found that he and his beauti- ful blonde wife were living in Paris where he was filling the post of U. S. Ambassador. 9 n .neo OANVILLE KENTUCKV MEET YOUR FRIENDS -AT THE- DYLE PHARMADY In Business For Your Health Phone 49 WE DELIVER I r At the head of the table sat the proprietor of the Park, Barring- ton Kinnaird, who owns a string of Park restaurants reaching from coast to coast. I saw George Wilder, prominent farmer who .ad perfected the only disease ,roof tobacco ever grown. Eugene Cline was in the group and I found that he was a member of the State Legislature. Beside him sat Lewis Strnad, Circuit Judge of this district. I left these retired Admirals recalling the '42 Corbin game-and found a comfortable seat where I could gather other bits of in- ' . . , 'gormation from the crowd. 1 I i i i l 4 Someone told me that Margaret Armstrong was Paris editor of Vogue and one of the ten best dressed women in the world. I was surprised to hear that Frank Newell was a forest rang- er in Colorado. I found that Sara Stigall, whose husband was an explorer, had written a' best seller on their travels through the moun- tains of Tibet. Ray Merle Van Hook, head surgeon at Mayo's, who was home on a short vacation came in. He told me that Lucy Love had be- come an outstanding woman phy- sician. Martha White and Mar- tha Petrofi were both at Warm Springs where they were special- ists in the Kenney cure for in- fantile paralysis, and Margaret Davis was head psycopathic nurse at Darnall. A sleek, black limousine stop- ped in front of the Park and out stepped Ethel May, whose hus- band, I found, was one of cen- tral Kentucky's wealthiest land- owners. She was soon joined by Mary Elizabeth Ellis, one of our foremost beauty consultants. They told me Doris Jean Hill had married her high school beau 1 l l l r l f l 1 r r l I i and was very happy. Marian Ter- ry was now Mrs. GENERAL Wyte Steen, and Gladys Taylor was busy raising Bunniesj Of course Dorothy Sewell had married a famous doctor and I wasn't sur- prised to hear that Iva Jane Zanone's husband was now sup- erintendant of the Danville divis- ion of the Southern railroad.

She had just finish- ed her new picture, Come With the Wind. Billy Scent, owner of an Alaska to South America airline, Carlton Brown, a clever lawyer, and Jack Settles, a famous inventor, were discussing Jack's new invention, a wireless telephone. I asked them about our old classmates and found that Walter Durham, Dumont Souleyrette, Robert Gordon, and Larry Ewing were in Alaska where they had started a booming -new town. Lige Faulconer, the author of a series of books on the Revolution- ary War, had just come home to lecture on this subject. Jane Jones had become a successful lawyer, and Marian Simpson was now editor of '4Popular Mechan- ics. Jimmy Stagg was very busy with his duties as secretary of DanviIle's Finest U Fish and Steak Dinners A-r IDEAL nnu.L ln Danville . Go To NEWBERRY'S 5-l0-25c STORE the Navy and Robert Durham was now an Admiral. I stopped Senator Jeremy Tip- ton to see how many of my class- mates were in Washington. D.H.S. graduates seemed to have a mono- poly on the top secretarial jobs in the capitol. Helen Freeman and Sylvia Powers were secre- tries to the president. Peggy Joyce Smith was clerk of the Supreme Court, and Nona Lee Williams was secretary to the president's wife. The Vice-Presi- dent's secretary was Dorothy Souleyrette while Virginia Greg- ory had become head of the clerical staff of the Treasury De- partment. Joan Farris, librarian in the Congressional Library, was also known as Washington's keenest literary critic. At this moment Claude Curt- singer, who had taken Charles Atlas' place in the world of mus- cles, came in. He said he had just seen Jimmy Vest, who was a railroad execu- tive, and Eugene Vaught had become pastor of the Lexington Avenue Baptist church. David Brandenburg was now Danville's fearless fire chief. Hugh Helm, a prominent banker, was also a deacon in the Methodist church. Just as I was about to leave the Park, I met Francis Rulon, one of America's most gifted poets. She told me Dimple Newell was the wife of a five and ten cent store executive. Nola Huskins had l become a famous night club en- tertainer, and that Lewis Mc- Waters was master of ceremonies on the Listen and Learn pro- gram. Two of my classmates, Vir- ginia Brown and Marcella Gid- eon had founded a cooking school that had become even more fam- ous than the Boston Cooking School. I had no trouble recognizing a girl with lovely jet black hair as Anna Marshall, beautiful photo- grapher's model. She was eager to add to my store of informa- tion and told me that Irene Mc- Whorter was now head dietitian for the Walgreen drug company. 2, a great con- cert pianist, was playing in Car- negie Hall, she said. I stopped to chat with Virginia Lanham and Ethyl Hill. Virginia had opened a secretarial school which had been very successful but was giving up her work to marry a famous musician. Ethyl was on a vacation from Sargent, the nationis best physical educa- tion school, where she was an in- structor. They had just seen All- ene Young, president of Vassar. Suddenly my vision was gone and I sat there rubbing the bump on my head. I'm very grateful to Mammy Yokum for showing me how to conjure up this vision and am glad to see such a bright future in store for all of you, but what do you suppose is gonna be- come of me?

Roy iand Margaret Armstrong were selected as Ubest dressed? l Competition was heavy for the ,Hbiggest pest title but Burdis Gideon and Marian Wilkinson came out victorious with Billy Scent and Anna Marshall running 'close seconds. However, Joan Farris and Lefty Allen were not crowded for the 'tmost ambitious and 'tmost intelligent honors.
