These are just a few of the exclamations that are heard on the threshold of the library these days, for Miss Mary Adams and the Home Ec. Club girls have transformed the place. President Martha Curd, class of '42,'and her club members chose green and maroon for their scheme of decoration so the walls and bookshelves, which were painted this summer, show an in- teresting combination of these colors. Draperies and slipcovers echoing the same tones have just been completed by this year's ad- vanced home economics class. The small office adjoining the library has been converted into a cozy lounging room to be used by the girls of the school. Baugh and Garner Furniture Company donated a couch to be used in this room, and Freeman's Furniture Company gave an elec- tric lamp. Home Ec. Club girls obtained the money for these projects by sponsoring a cabaret dance, rum- mage sale, and a district lunch- OUR DAZE CContinued From Page Onel Signal Corps.

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. .-.

6 THE LOG October. 1942 - V PETROFF LEADS COUNCIL Owens Directs Band, Expert Cheer Leaders FRESHMEN EN DU RE In the first student councu Majorettes Replace Flag Twiriers 11...- Under the direction of Mr. W. H. Owens the D. H. S. band has started the '42 season with five new members, and has chosen a group of majorettes to take the place of the flag twirlers of last year. Lucy Freeman, Francis Cald- well, Betty Jane Dunn, Sara Edith Edwards, Charlotte Erskine, Erma Gilliam, Emma Lou Roy, Gloria Stephenson, Ann Sim- mons, and Barbara Armstrong were selected as the majorettes to appear with the marching band through-out the season. The sponsor, Margaret Arm- strong, retains the position she held last year, and J. E. Roy suc- ceeds Jimmy Phelps as drum major. The members of the band are Bill Ezell, Joe Strnad, Ray Van Hook, George White, trumpets, Mae Francis Burns, bell lyrag Peg- gy Carter, Bill Cinnamon, Mal- colm Cochran, Jerry Cundiff, clarinetsg Layton Creekmore, Charles Hedges, J eptha Jett, Bob- by Powell, saxophone, Burdis Gideon, Louis Strnad, George Wilson, trombonesg Jack Gray, Paul Holman, Sammy Dexter, horns, Robert Durham, tuba, Morse L.

Inspire Students Cheer leading has become an art with Danville Hi's experts: Ethel Hill, Marian Wilkinson, Car- ol Ann Mannini, Fuzzy Dunn, Ray Chrisman, and Earl Bell. Carol Ann Mannini and Earl Bell joined the group in Septem- ber, having transferred to D. H. S. from other schools. Several yells have been added to the school list, and the leaders have worked out some clever formations and timing devices. Pep rallies have really gone over this fall, and the Admirals have responded to the cheer leaders' battle cry, Fight! Fight! Fight! Latin Club Started Officers Elected Organizing the first Latin Club in Danville High School, a group of Latin students met in Miss Edna Woford's room Tuesday October 13. Plans for the coming school year were made, and of- ficers were elected. Meetings will be conducted with the same form as a Roman senate. Officers chosen were D. 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.

THE LOG October, 1942 Admirals Down Jumpers 20-7 Big Blues Make Bid For CKC Crown On October 2 Playing before 3,000 spectators the Admirals put in their bid for the C. K. 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.

A stunt like that against Henry Clay might leave Danville on the short end of the score. However, with a dry field, the squad in good shape, and no second-half let up, D.H.S. should top their opponents by 20 points. akvkfkfkllf Probably the smartest quarter- back in our school's history is UC Southwood. His strategy Cwith Dopey's runningb was the high- light of the St. X. game. HC even makes up plays in the hud- dle. 934411242111 Pvt. Haskell Short, reporter and sports writer for the Advo- cate-Messenger, is leaving Dan- ville this week for an indefinite stay with his Uncle Sam. Scoop,', as he is affectionately known, will be missed by D. H. S. fkifllslkfk' Danville made it four in a row last Friday night as they rolled over Springfield 39-6. Phelps scored three touchdowns with Al- len, Brummett, and Robertson tallying once each. Danville's re- gulars saw very little service, playing only in the first and third quarters. 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. Phelps Leads Mariners As DHS Eleven Sinks St. Xavier Tigers Led by DopeyiPhelps the Ad- mirals opened their '42 season with a 13-0 victory over St. Xavier on Maxwell field in Lou- isville Saturday, Sept. 19. 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. St. Xavier's five man line and deceptive T formation kept the Admirals on the defensive the rest of the second half. Xavier's drives were halted within the shadows of the Big Blue's goal CContinued ,on Page Nine? THE 0lTlZEN'S NATIDNAL BANK Member F.D.I.C. DANVILLE. KY. Established 1885 LOWE Bnos.
