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.

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.

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.

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.

In- stead of dread, however, there should be a feeling of gayety, so why csn't we make this Halloween season the best for everyone? Halloween Wfunn does not have toinclude those pranks which lead to the destruction of property. In the first place, our boys are fighting in a great war. The least we can do is help preserve what they are fighting for--our. country and everything in it. Also, extra time and materials, of whichwehave a limited amount, have to be used hxmaking repairs. Think what would be saved if everyone did his part during one Halloween season! , Besides, many genuine good times can be enjoyed without harm to anyone. A masquerade party provides no end of enjoyment with all its weirdness of ghosts, witches, black cats, and'Jack-o- lanterns, not forgetting, of course, the usual array of fancy costumes. ' With these facts ln dnd, let's tell coo erate in makin this P 8 year's Halloween season one of pleasure and not one of destruc- tion. M 'FORMER E.H.S.

' 'Qs A PLEDGE I4 Q1 Fos cownsus DAY mt' October 12 is e day which we all should consider important to us as Christopher Columbus was horn ln Genes in 1451 and died in 1506. He loved to travel and by Febuary 1477 he had visited Ice- land twice. he married Felipe Monza de Prestrello ln 1478. Hs left Lisbon, after the death of his wife, and took his son to Spain in 1484. In preparing for his voyage to the New world he received three ships from Queen Isabelle and his crews consisted of prisoners and criminal men. On Friday August 5, 1492 at 8:00 e.m. they sighted and anchored on the Canary Islands. A little later on Friday October 12, 1492 at 2:00 a.m. they sighted the New World where we are living today. Therefore we should thins of this dey as e holiday hm meny American people realize it as just mr other day in NHBIF lives. This year particularly we should have striven, pledged our- forth new and restore peace ours which is result of one selves anew, to put tireless effort to to this world of our heritage ss a Mr. Columbus who lived in the fifteenth century. 1945 GRADUATES. CHOOSE T0 WEAR CAPS AND GOWNS The Senior Class met Thursday, September 28, to decide what it would wea!'st graduation exercises in the Spring. QS. H. Townsend. representing -the Collegiate Cap and Gown ompany explained the quality, color, and price of varl-, ous caps and gowns. The majority of the class voted for grey wrin- kle proof gowns and grey caps with white tassels. There are several advantages in wearing caps and gowns during war time. Boys will be going ln the service, clothes are more expensive, and the class is more uniform--thus presenting a more dignified appearance. Take time to enjoy 'the fine things of life. y 1
