Eaton 18 - Gaston 4 As cu r baseball season 1s'd.re.w- ing close to an end, another very Apleaslng and exciting event took place on Friday, October 6 on our :home diamond with Gaston as our opponet. The first two lnnings were good baseball. The second and third seemed to be good'prac-8 tice for our boys, but ln the fifth inning when our boys went wild and got around all four sides of the diamond ll times, it ls boubtful whether lt was even good practice or notlll Even with an unexperienced pitcher, Joe Elliott, and an un- experlence catcher, Homer Meyer for the Norsemenl our team seemed to be plenty tough' for the Gaston Bulldogs. U Gaston had a very 'rugged' pitcher. By his actions, one would think his motto was 'Strike them out or knock them cut.' Con- sequently Homer Meyers and Junior Bmoot came out of the encounter with swollen fingers, hands and muscles. Incldently, though, our boys were strictly on the 'solid s1de.' ' !'m sure we all noticed those two 'streamline' three baggers Dave Rlebellng got. By the.way, Dave, have you been eating 'Pop- oye's' splnachflll Too bad, Roberts, but we hope the next time you get a three base hit you will not be.ln such a hurry, not try to fly--but touch all basesll Say, team, what have you been doing to attain that excellent coordination of brains and muscle which was used ln stealing second base so frequently??1 that DeSoto bunch dldn't know when to quit. This was' a baseball war, we weren't able to win,so we say, 'Take it away, DeSoto, and may good-luck be with you until the endll May the best team win the championship and let ue all be good losers. Royerton 19 - Eaton 8 On Wednesday September 24, the Junior' High Team had as their guests, the Royerton Junior High Redbirds. It seemed that this day was just one of those unlucky days. Royerton got started first and ended up on tcp by a score of lO'to 8. The team suffered a handicap by the absence of Dick Norrick who normally filled the ,positionof shortstop on the team. Fred Elliott and Bill Thomas were the losing pitcher and catcher respectively for the Norsemen. FINAL PITCHERS' RECORD , LP. A.B. H. R.

This year's team had a winning season from the' polnt of wins and losses, but this' kind of winning dcesn't bring home the trophies. As a uncle the boys did very- well this fall. They lost to a fine team, DeSoto, in the pky off in the Northern Division of Dels- wsre County play. If dm boys could have defeated DeSoto on DeSoto's diamond on Sept. 22 they could have been. riding in the dr1ver'a seat, but as we all know, close ones count only in horseshoes I -

SIXTH GRADE IN CHARGE OF SCHOOL SAFETY PATROL Under Mrs. Shook's Supervision Boys Great Help to Students Through Safety Campaign. The sixth grade Safety Patrol Boys deal primarily with traffic safety for the grade children of our school: however, they are 'alert for the general safety of the pupils in the school building and on the playground. we feel that qualities of leadership and citizenship are developed through patrol service. The patrol movement was first launched in Chicago in a joint experiment with the Police ,De- partment and Chicago Motor Club, and has spread to all city and rural districts in this country. The Motor Club furnishes us with our belts, badges, arm bends, and 'Certificates of Award' free 'of charge. This year the Wednesday After- noon Club and the local chapter of Psi Iota Xi Sorority have furnished funds for reincoats and cape helmets which have been or- tnis gift wear long dered. We appreciate for most boys do not raincoats for general wear, and when they they are badly needed have to stand several minutes at a time in very bad weather. These patrol members wearing their white belts do not escort the children across the street or stop traffic to allow the chil- dren to pass for they are not policemen, but they serve to keep children on the sidewalk until the traffic crossing. ls clear for their At the end of the school year a recognition ceremony is held st are given those who which awards have served faithfully and satis- factorily during the school year. The boys wish to thank the motorists of our community who have so courteously observed their signs in the school zone. Gen. John J. Pershing. Comman- der of the A. E. F. has said, 'I am intensely interested in this school patrol movement. I have observed these youngsters at their posts of duty from coast to coast and believe they are not only a fine thing from the stand- point of national safety but are receiving splendid training in c1tizenshiD.' Cdrade News Contlnuedl ' A contest is being held in Mrs. Osenbaugh's Room in regard to per- fect attendance. To date the 'girls are ahead.

Pearcy of the CAP Speaks to Youth 16 and Over. Lt. Pearcy of the Civil Air Patrol spoke to the high school boys between the ages of 16 years and 6 months to 18 years, Wednes- day, October 17. He explained that if the boys did not enlist in the Air Corps Enlisted Reserve before they were 18 years of age they could not enter the Air Force under any circumstances. One must be a graduate of high school, physically fit, and able to pass a severe mental- test if he is to qualify for enlistment in the Air Corps Reserve. Lt. Pearcy also explained that there would be a chance for advancement and good pay. The first examination will be given at Central High School, October 24, 7:30 p.m. ln Room 116.

The United var Fund Drive was opened in Eaton High School Thursday, October 12, by a guest speaker Court Rollins, a member or the board or alrecuors or the United War Fund. In his talk, he told e story of a boy who gave his life so that we might have a which to live. better world in He also told of how our service men not only give their services and, at times their llvesg but also give their money to such drives as these. He stressed that since some of us cannot give our time or talents, that the least we can do is to open our hearts and give our money freely. These funds provide many services ln our own country as well as friendly assistance to our fighting allies and the com- fort and enjoyment to the men and women serving our country, The funds help to pay for the services of the U,S,O,, for our families and for the education of our service men's children and for the disabled children of. our veterans. It provides ser- vices for the people of Russia, Poland, China, Britian, France, Greece, Norway, Ozechoslovla, and Yugoslovia when the Germans have overrun or tortured, ' Last year Eaton High 8chool's total contribution was 0111.40 nhereas, this year we collected f135.B1.

QLL . It should be the duty of every citizen regardless of his station in life umknow the correct manner of displaying the flag of his country and the proper method of showing his respect for it. Do not permit disrespect to be shown to the flag. Do not let the-flag touch the ground, deck or water. Do not place anyemblem or object of any kind on or above the flag except the authorized head staffs. Do not drape the flag over the hood, top, sides, or back of s vehicle, train, or boat. when displayed from an automobile, or train, or vehicle, it should be from s stall firmly affixed. Do not display the flag on a float in a parade except from a staff. Do not use the flag as s covering for a ceiling. Do not carry the flag flat or horizontally but always aloft and free. Do not use the flag as a portion of costume or dress. 'Do not put lettering of any kind on the flag. Do not use the flag in any form of advertising nor ,fasten any advertising to a pole or halyard from which the flag is flown. Do not use the flag festconed over doorways ofarches, tied' in a bow-knot or otherwise employed in a purely decorative manner. Fbr these purposes, bunting of the national colors is more appropriate, and since the blue Union is the flsg's honor point, the hunting should' be arranged with that color uppermost. Dc not use the flag for snypurpose lacking in dignity and respect. Always treat ,the flag of a foreign nation with the same respect as that of the United States. me church pennant is the only flag ever to be hoisted over the flag. It is displayed only during divine services. Displaying the flag- upside down is a recognized- signal of distress. It is interesting to know the different flags that have been in the United States.

The yell leaders were asked to attend as the meeting was held in order to discuss the organization and management of the school pep ses- ions. B111 Huffman made a motion that we have pep sessions twice a week and Margaret Collins second- ed the motion. The motion was unanimously carried. Mr. Gibson was consulted about the council ruling and he agreed to the arrangement but suggested. that the periods should be limit- ed to ten or fifteen minutes eadm The suggestion was acceptable to the council: consequently, the yell leaders have planned to pre- sent new material at each week's first pep meeting. At the fol- lowing meeting, their' aim ls to review this same material. Stu- dents may memorlze new 'yells' ln the meantime. This new plan should result ln a desirable and well-organized 'rooting' section. The ruling will be .placed in effect immediately!

The idea of the organization is nota place to come for friend- ship, fun, and complalntsg but for parents and teachers to get better acquainted and solve prob- lems arising in the school which are of common interest to both, The following officers were elected: Pres1dent-Bern1cefH1eb- ellngg Vice-President -- Hildreth Vanceg Treasurer -- Vula Cruea. Roscoe Hall, Arza Vance, and John Blair acted as judges and counted the votes. Hr. Gibsonwas elected co-ordl- nator to work asa steward officer between faculty and parents. A moving picture entitled 'South .of' the Border' was shown the latter all of us to give-a little extra thought to our democratic methods of 'education as an extensive Amer1can.enterpr1ee. Yet, as students few of us work to capacity even for an hour out of each day. On every hand the lament is heard that 'there just lsn't enough time to do all the things which we must do.' Consequently, in an effort to disguise our own short-comlngs such as laziness, lack of know- ledge concerning how to study, poor management, or unmeasured greed for personal glory we skim a nuns here, trim a blt snare, evode, pretend, bluff, use some- one else's work--or, just muddle through. A great hurry has seized us! We have an excess of motion but not enough sense of direction and management. As'a result, we get nowhere, and we blame it all on bad luckl T Adults continue through life blaming inadequate high school programs, poor teachers etc.,for their lack of opportunities. It never seems to occur to them that perhaps they failed some place along the line, to prepare to take advantage of oppor- tunltles. therefore, they don't recognize them as such. have yug- as students, thought whether you should have to rely on poorexcus- es to 'sham' your own tnabllltles to govern your household and rear a family of good American Citizens? Have you, or are you, preparing now to face the future proudly, matter-of-factly, and truthfully,--well prepared to cope with future problems. American education has oppor- tunities unequalled by other countries of our world. However, few high school students ever realize this while they are still students. Why don't you stop now and give this subject some thought? Take full advantage of the education offered you!
