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.

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.

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.

She was the editor of The Log and, though she graduated last year, she was glad to come back and help us get out our first edition this year.

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. .-.

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. It's the student who gets the Paper, It's the school who gets the fame, It's the printer who gets the money, And the staff who gets the blame. --The Hi-Times MILAIJY Distinctive Styles Robertson Makes Debut In St. Augustine Game Robert Robertson, making his varsity debut, paced the Admiral attack to a 39 to 0 victory over St. Augustine, Friday, September 25, on the D. 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.
