Then, oh, please! Will our lady teachers make no attempt to find their tempers whhnathey have already lost several times in tgp ing to corall a few wayward sheep back into the fold.

But, reallv, it is difficult to drive those twenty-five miles four or five nights a week with this gasoline rationing program in full swing and the F. B. I. agents active. Then, too, '1t's difficult to break an old pre- served hebit!! It's rumored that Joe even wanted to enter Central of Muncie this year. Better make it Burris for real convenience. Joe.

What's the matter with Betty C.? She forgot to go to History Class the other morning. That's alright for a freshman but---a Jun1or!'!! Perhaps Purdue has something to do with it. It seems Annaruth Robinson is kept busy the first pertod every morning reading letters from the -Navy. E That last period :shorthand class is really industrious. Few but mighty! What's this I hear about cer- tain E. H. S. boys being so popu- lar at Selma. There's nothing slow about the students of E. H.S is there? Huffman, Tuttle, and Stsnack have assumed the responsibility of washing dishes in the cafe- teria. They really look pert in those aprons. It's plain to be seen too, that Jane thinks this experience will tend to improve Bi1l's qualities as a husband. Flash!! Mildred Jones reported to have been in Eaton Wednesday night, September 20.

Royerton slid back further than they climbed up the Friday before, Tut! Tut! Too bad they awaked and their dreams van- ished. Orchids to Dave Riebeling and Ralph Medsker for their good rec- ord at the State Fair. Orchids to last yesr's Seniors for the Saga which was drooled over by all who gazed on its intriguing interior. Orchids to Mr. Gibson for being brave enough to assume the r1q n- sibility of both the Junio! and Senior Class Sponsorships---But, won't Richmond expect to welcome him by Spring? Thorne to Ralph Medsker for calling Mrs. Brueckheimer Mary Ellen in mechanicaldrawlng class. 'An 'F' for todayll' Thorns to Karl Dix for disput- ing Mr. Ross's intelligence con- cerning death rates. Excruciating for the rest of the class, wasn't lt?? Orchids to Mrs. Eastman for improving the morale of the typ- ing students by adding frilly white curtains and plants to the commercial department. Hooray for the mirror, too! Thorns to the girls coming to school with then'tresses in curl- ers. We think they're horrid. Don't they credit us with enough intelligence to realize they look terrible longer while their hair ls drying than they look beauti- ful when lt ls dry. We prefer to see it shiny, well brushed, and combed. Orchids to the grade children for their splendid co-operation in the milk weed pod collection campaign. Thorns to Hrs. Wallace for not permitting political discussions in United States Govenument Class. We know 1t's unethical but would- n't it be enlightening? Orchids to the hhnzschool stu- dents who are helping the war ef- fort by working outside school YET are maintaining their school grades on lor above the' average level. Thorns to those girls who con- tribute more to the' advertising of other high schools than their own by flaunting the foreign school sweaters under our noses each day. Thorns to those students who work outside merely to get out of school. Thorns to Hr. Gibson for not -speaking loudly enough in the assembly. Q5 can't hear lg thg beck! Say, did you hear about Mr. Gibson beating his wife up the other morning? He got up at five and she got up at six.

fn JL N IQ H QNX I I x A 'cossz 'sgqisy BASEBALL AGAIN? r WN. . . This year from .. our squad we have noticed the absence lv of three faces that we regretted to kms They are Teal Yhnce U. S. Navyg James . Lambert, U. S. Army and Bill Martin of the U. S. Army Air Corps. We can all be sure of them in there pitching for a most worth cause and we can all sa 'J I i 7 PX X ll X .Si N.5: ' ra lore, 'good Y Y -luck' to them. We have a lot of new and wel- come faces on the squad also. There is a total of 52 boys of which four are seniors six un J-, eight sophomores and twelve freshmen. Bo you see if the seniors can't do it, the Juniors can, if they can't do it the sophomores can and from there it is up to those 'wlry' freshmen. Good-luck, Freshmen! Carry on through your four most exciting years ahead and may they be very successful. The season was opened by a booming game versus Center from which came victory for us. Too bad, Center, the new year was 14 to was apparent by the. end but we had to start out right! The score O. Consequently, lt, that the excitement of the fifth inning had droppedlll It was the begin- ning year. of a very inspirational The game with R erton 'was really a 'k1ller.' I this game I'm sure that the, student body and even the faculty realized what good ball you boys can play after you once getln the 'gnxue.' It seemed that Royerton got in swing of the game first. This never worried us for as long as there is an inning left there is a chance to win. 'Never Give Up' is a good motto to have. Bhall we make it ours? we wantto congratulate Meyers, Huffman and Elliott for bringing in the last and most welcome three runs which put us 'over the tcp' by a margin of15 to 4. Nloe game Royerton and we are looking toward the opportunity of playing you again. ' Tuesday the 19th, we particl- pated in a game against Selma. We need not mentioned much about it for lt ls one of those instances that one like to forget. Due to certain handicaps, we d1dn't let this defeat get the' best of us. Dave Riebeling be-. cause of an injured hand, gave his position over to Howard Roberts who is substitute pitcher this year. Roberts pitched a good game. Too bad his pitching orsemen Sports Activities career has started so latelll' Huffman had a little tough luck. Ask him what the out come of the best hit he ever got was. The baseball season has pushed further onward as we entered into a most dazzling and disgusting game at Desoto on Friday the 22nd The game started off in sort of a slow dreamy way but you know how the Norsemen in the olden days sailed. The boat would sail gradually out from shore but after they got out into the ocean where there was a gale of wind, it was fairly smooth and fast sailing unless .they ran into a slight storm or obstacle. Well, we have a right to keep up the traditions. It took us a while to get into a path of wind but from there on sailing was 'rugged X' No, Desoto wasn't the storm or obstacle we ran into. It was a much smaller thing than that! By the way, Desoto, what ,were those things that seemed to be planted right below the surface of the ground and have the magnitlsing power of pushing the ball up into, the sky after it had once hit the ground?lll j Although the game ended up with Desoto leading 9 to B, we want to say you are a good team to play. We are ,hoping we may have the opportunity to play you here at home before the season closes and show just what tech- niques we really do possess. Just between you and us, Desoto, don't you think a rule book would make an excellent gift for someone who ls interested in baseball?? How about going fifty- fifty with us and buying one? Of course, we need not say who the receiver would be for we have no definte person in mind. Another hlghllghtof the season took place on Tuesday the 26th, with Parker playing here. I must say it was a very complicated and confusing game at times. When Parker's left-handed pitcher was on the mound and one of our left- handed batters was at the plate, ,you ,notu only had to sto and , P ...- study whether the batter was left handed but you would have to look at your hands to decide and even then you still would be'puzz1ed. The excitement of the game seemed to come ln spurts, just like a leaky faucet. One inning would be running over with excitement while the next two or three would be very dry. The game ended though in more of an arousing state. When in the first of the seventh inning, Parker brought in four runs, it made us begin to be more sober and think more seriously. All ends well that begins well so at the end of the game the score was 9 to 8 with Eaton leading. Not only nas the varsity team been active this year but the nJun1or High team has also been participating in a few games and are showing that not all the good baseball players are on the varsity. Yet their unexperlence ls a slight handicap to them which was obvious in their first game at Royerton on september the 21Bte With Fred Elliott as pitcher and Bill Thomas as catcher, Eaton showed Royerton how to play ball for s while. At the first of the fifth inning the score was 10 to 5. I guess our boys were so thrilled by the score that they thought the game was practically over and forgot to score anymore after Royerton BOT- USM PUBS bringing the score for thpm 'and making it ll to 10 thus ending the game that way. have a chance to haven't layed down Royerton will come 28 and we are sure that the Junior High team has our support. A Well, they show that they on the Job for here September lr. Hallie planning a big year for the yell leaders as well as the basketball players. He is going to take special efforts concerning the yell leaders and hopes that the sportsmanship and the enthusiasm of - basketball spirit will be very high in the student body. He is also locking forward to seeing us all out to all the games backing our team by really rooting for them. Those who are interested in trying out for yell leaders could be wisely thinking about it and practicing up. All people who are interested hand their names to Hr. Hill'or Mr. Gibson for it won't be long until the time for tryouts will roll around. 1131 U 1:::T' Q Q9 '- , 1: Q te . ' -gt-ff f NU
