There is a fourth R, the R that stands for relationships -personal, religious, racial, and most important of all, just plain human relationships. As yet we have not learned how to live happily and with mutual respect in this world of nations. Our best hope is in education, especially education during the early years. Our hope lies in being able to grow a generation which will be big enough to live fairly and decently in these tremendous times. Unless children are trained in the process of judgment-making and methods of reasoning they will not be equipped to face the future. In school a child should be taught to follow the Golden Rule of doing unto others as he would like them to do unto him. He will form the habit of taking the other fellow's interests into account, thus contributing greatly to the happiness of those persons with whom he comes in contact. He will be doing more than that. He will be helping to solve the problem of his country and the world. Most of the problems which afflict us would melt away if more people considered the welfare of others as well as of themselves. The children must be taught to have more of the spirit of brotherhood and understanding and cooperation if we are-to prevent national discord and international strife. We must have more of it if civilization is to be preserved. They must be taught to respect their fellowmen as brothers, but they should take proper pride in the glories of their own heritage. Barriers of intolerance can exist only in the presence of ignorance and prejudice. This intolerance must not control the atomic age. Ignorance and prejudice must be eradicated. There is no time for resting. The future is too urgent. There is too much chance that the World in madness will destroy Civilization. Students should study issues which have divided nations and which have resulted in wars. It is necessary to study the foreign poli- cies of our own nation. Much time should be given in the school to the study of the people of other nations, their problems, their needs, and their foreign policies. Suspicions and mis- trust between the peoples of the world through their differences have all too often resulted in war. Therefore, since war begins in the minds of men it is in the minds of men that the de- fense of peace must be constructed. -Jean Hathaway '47, Co-Editor-In-Chief WOUI,DN'T IT BE SILLY? DID you ever stop to think what a silly world this would be if things were just as we wanted them? It's really quite amazing when you come right down to brass tacks, so to speak. Hardly ever a day passes that we don't hear someone complaining about some thing or another. Take the person who despises winter, for example. Nothing would make him hap- pier than to have summer all year round. No doubt each one of us has wished that same thing on numerous occasions. But wouldn't that be crazy? Think of all the people who might be jobless just to satisfy that one man's longing. First of all, the snow plows would be abandoned. This would not only put the drivers out of jobs, but also the truck manufacturers, or at least the people who make the plows.- Where would we go skiing or ice skating, and that brings to mind the manufacturers of skis, ice skates and various other winter sports equipment as well as the people who make and sell winter clothes. And where would we get ice to preserve food if the lakes never froze over? We're now not only sweltering away in the sticky summer heat, but food is going bad and thousands of people are out of jobs. Bugs are breeding by the billions, big ones and little ones, fat ones and skinny ones, slimy ones and fuzzy ones, and they bite, sting, and keep you awake at night. Aren't you glad you're not the distasteful character who wished this awful fate on us? See what just one hasty wish can do. THE PINNACLE 17 This old world may not be just the way you would like it, but don't we all have our faults? There are some things we can improve in the world, but let's not try to convert it to our own tastes and desires. In the first place, it wouldn't work, and in the second place, wouldn't it be silly? -Grace Althenn '47, C0-Editor-In-Chief BUILDING FUND AFTER Z3 years of faithful service the Ford Gymnasium, which was built by the help of Erskines' good neighbors and many friends is going to get much needed alterations. To take care of these changes a building fund has been started and by the fall of 1947 we hope to have a greatly improved Gym. On November 5, 1925, the school building burned and from then until 1937 classes were held in the Gym. The stage was converted into a class-room, and there was a small room built in the basement that was also used as a class room. The main auditorium was used as a study hall. Ar that time there were only forty students enrolled at Erskine. In 1937 the school building that now stands was built and the students moved into it. Since that time the Gym has been used mainly for activities like Dancing, Plays, Graduation, Boxing, and Basketball. Showers were recently installed and now we hope to improve it by raising the roof so that there will be a 9 foot clearance above the basketball baskets and by enlarging the stage to about 18 feet deep and 10 feet in length. The Gym entrance is going to be changed to the side of the building instead of where it now stands. We feel sure we can do this with the help that has already been given us and if others will also give help or money. We have now, men who have promised labor and over S100 worth of lumber has been con- tributed, and a sum of 5450.00 has also been contributed. Three of the school boys and a friend cut 1000 feet of lumber for us not long ago. f One unusual thing that may be of interest to the people of South China is that Charles Starrett, the cowboy movie actor who considers South China as his boyhood home, has con- tributed SZ5 to the building fund. We sincerely appreciate all that has and will be done towards the improvement of the Ford Gymnasium. -Emily Russell '48, Associate Editor GOOD-BYE TO OLD ERSKINE We hate to bid good-bye to dear Erskine, We'll miss all our friends so true. We'll miss the cheery, Good mornings, And the fun which we all knew. 'Twill be hard to leave our buddies behind, Whom to each of us were a pal. 'Twill also be hard for the boys to say, Good-bye to his sweet Erskine gal. We'll miss all the plays and the socials, Also the sports which were few. And we'll miss all our old teachers, Who were faithful to me and to you. Four years we spent in Erskine halls, Makes us hate to part from thee, But the time has come, and part we must, So farewell and good-bye from my class- mates and me. - Robert Marr '47 EDUCATION EDUCATION is a wonderful thing. It seems that everyone should have some sort of school- ing to get out into the world and make anything of himself. It may be only a high school diploma with an additional trade course, or it may be four years at a college. Whatever it is it should be done to the best of one's ability. There are a great many returning veterans who are happily coming back to school, hoping for further education. Their schooling was cut short by the war, but it seems such a pleasure kgm-Mwig T H E P I NNACLE mv-F to see so many returning to school. Some were fortunate enough to complete high school before being drafted and can go directly to collegeiwhile others have to go back to high school to finish their courses, before training for a special vocation. ' During the days following a war there is plenty of employment for younger people, but there comes a day when only the ones with education will get the good-paying jobs. My advice is for young people of high school age not to think of stopping at this point just because they see a good job waiting, but to go on in school as far as they possibly can. Some day the person who has the best education will be the one who will win the best employment. W-Marion Dufour '47 THANKSGIVING!! Many years ago, . Thanksgiving Day began, It started with the Pilgrims When they reached our Native land. They were alone and weary, But glad to know they were livingg So they all rejoiced together In one glorious Thanksgiving!! fBarbam Racklejf '49 THE MORNINOAFTER HALLOWEEN Early I arose on November Ist. The day after Hallowe'en: I feared the worst, I hurried to the window and there I did see The yard was strewed with rubbish and debris. I opened the door, I stepped outside And there on the back porch I spied Between the overturned ash can and the paint-spattered wall Was a battered old shoe, but that wasn't all! To the free end of the shoe-lace, behold, thererwas tied A piece of white paper. I tried To fathom its meaning. What were its de- mands? I unfolded the paper with trembling hands And there I saw three mystic words written in red Kilroy was heref' it said. -Gale Rutledge 49 AN OLD FAMILY CUSTOM lt's an old family custom At Christmas Tide - To take out the sleigh And go for a ride. The horses are harnessed To the old, old sleigh - The horses are prancing To be off and away. A laughing gay crowd Of girls and boys - Which love the Christmas And all of its joys. The children are wrapped In woolens and furs - And off goes the sleigh At the sound of the spurs. The horses are prancing O'er dale and hillw- And carry their load Past the old Grist Mill. Over the brooks Up past the church We are soon overturned By a sharp and quick lurch With frosty breath And cold, wet feet P- We sleigh back home For want of heat. For this year only The sleigh ride is o'er - But more Christmas joys Will come by the score: -A Paul .Sennett 50 THE PINNACLE GRADUATION DAY Graduation day isn't very far away, And seniors are working hard each day, For if they don't they won't be gay, So we're wishing them luck in every way. , Then comes the day when they march down the aisle, Slowly and surely with a confident smileg As the names are called out, they slowly starid UP, And receive their diplomas like a trophy cup. They get their diplomas and slowly sit down, And as this continues, you hear not a sound, For the ceremony is nearing an end -9 As they all bow in prayer and whisper, Amen. -Norma Scates '49 THE BROWN GIRLS The Brown Girls here at school Are as cute as they can be, Everyone thinks they are sisters But they are cousins as you can see. These two girls live in the Dorm Where they have lots of fung But they like to get out Fridays When their week of school is done. These two girls are very close. In every kind of weather, No matter where you happen to go You Find them both together. -Y Regina Matthews '49 REMEMBER Oh, the carefree days at Erskine I'1l remember with a smile, For it's there that I got started To make my life worth while. The laughing and the talking And dancing in the hall, Is something to be remembered By pupils one and all. Sometimes we do some studying Especially before exams, For then it's an unwritten law To cram and cram and cram. There is a lighter side of course We have our socials and plays, It's lots of fun for everyone Leaving memories of happy days. We also have our many sports Baseball, basketball and boxing, too For which eager spectators say, Merci bien, merci beaucoupf' Yes, the carefree past at Erskine Are the happy days Of yore, And the Present and the Future Must now be accounted for. -Janice Zwicker '49 GUM CHEWING Gum chewing is very bad So says Mr. Braley And he lectures every day And watches us all daily. I was chewing gum one day Snapping it with all my mightx just then he happened to glance up And caught me in his sight. He said that I must see him Directly after school Now I'd not washed blackboards If I hadn't been a fool. -Shirley Brown '49 l g , ,, 7, , , THE PINNACLE ZI THE BUSINESS OF LEARNING TODAY our High Schools and Colleges are Hlled to capacity. This is due to the fact that twelve million returning veterans of World War II are furthering their education. As citizens of the United States, are we young men and women going to school to learn something or are we going just to take up space and spend Uncle Sam's money? We are going to school now f carrying books under our arms M- so that later we can have knowledge in our heads. It is true that many receive a degree, which means that they have learned their ABC's in an advanced state of learning. It should also be remembered that a degree is nothing unless one has the in- telligence and common sense to put it to use in an everyday, commonfplace world. Many successful business men' of today do not have college educations, but they do have a superior intelligence rating that gives them the power to learn through actual experience what other men learn through books. It is true that some students do not like to go to school. Well, neither do some of the under- paid people who teach you. There is an old saying, It is better to learn willingly than by the hickory stick. It should be remembered that education is acquired, not bought. -Lloyd Hall '47 CHARACTER SKETCH THE BOY I am about to describe is about six feet tall and a blond. His eyes are big, blue, and - oh, so very innocent. No one in school can beat his delapidated hats, his smelly old pipe, and sharp ties and socks. His heart- warming chuckle can be heard at all hours as he leads the gang into more deviltry. He is probably the most mischievous show-off in school. It may be a mere coincidence but it appears that practically all of the pungent odors, smoke, explosions, etc., which occur in the lab. originate in his corner. In study halls, it seems that more erasers and paper airplanes whiz by when he's present than at any other time. Odd, isn't it? Cn the days when he stays home to go fishing things begin to quiet down a little. He is very active in school activities, especif ally sports. His cheery disposition and keen sense of humor do much towards making him one of the most popular students here at Erskine. -lean Hathaway '48 CHOOSING A CAREER WE, THE CLASS OF 1947, are saying, What shall I do with my life?,' Of the many careers open to me, which one shall I choose? Gf course, we must choose the field of work we are most interested in, for, without interest, our work would be a failure. Many people think intelligence is a talent, but how wrong they are! It is the effort and study we put forth from day to day during our school days and during our whole life. just because a person is capable of doing a certain type of work does not mean he will be happy doing it. The choice of a career depends on many factors. First, no one can make your choice of a career for you. It must be selected by you and only you. Second, a person must be honest and accurate in whatever he attempts to do. These are two of the many facts we must consider. Young men and young women seek a great deal of advice from their parents, relatives and friends. I am afraid too many young people's careers are selected by some one else. The career is yours and it is your life's work that is going to be put into it. As you go on in your career, things become clearer and more plain to you. If you have chosen a career you dislike, put your best efforts into it and one day you will findyourself doing the work you enjoy. An individual's career is his life and the question of how it is to be solved is through serious thought and experience. It is only in this way that you will accomplish your life's career. I -Marjorie Ames ,47 22 THE PINNACLE ANTI-FRICTION BEARINGS THE WHEEL is the basic foundation of all in- dustry. Likewise, it is a symbol of man's progress. The wheel was used as far back as the times when the earth's civilization consisted of cave men. In the time of the cave man, however, the wheel merely turned on an axelg nothing more. In due time, the friction of the wheel against the axel and vice versa caused either the wheel or the axel to give way. Hundreds of years later, in the days of the picturesque covered wagons, things were not so romantic and picturesque when progress was hampered by a broken axel or wheel. Then came the turning point in the life of the wheel. It came not over night, however, but as the result of many long years of research, hardship, and development. This turning point was brought about by the invention of the antiffriction bearing. As the word suggests, a bearing is something which bears the weight of the wheel and the load it carries. Present day industry could not exist in the world today had it not been for the invention of the anti-friction bearing. Bearings are not all the same, though. There are many different sizes and shapes, depending on the type of machine in which it is used. Ball bearings, cylinder bearings, and tapered cylinder bearings are but a few of the bearing family. And all are made by machines and checked and re-checked by skilled workers with precision instruments to insure per- fection. Yes, modern industry is the outcome of yesterday's research - of the invention of the anti-friction bearing. Today trains can run for thousands of miles non-stop without de- veloping dangerous hot boxes as did the early trains because of the constant friction of the wheels. All our modern household appliances such as washing machines, vacuum cleaners, auto- matic ironers, and just about every other ma- chine you can think of has wheels, and these wheels turn on bearings. Yes, the wheel is the basic foundation of all industry, but the anti-friction bearing is truly the factor behind the success of the wheel. - Grace Althenn '47 SCHOOL DAYS! SCHOGL DAYS! School days will soon be over for the Class of '47, although many of them will still continue to go to some college or other school. Some of our students will become nurses stenographers, bookkeepers, typists, hotel man- agers, accountants, teachers, and farmers. These students will have to further their educa- tions by attending schools to prepare them for the work they have decided to pursue through- out their lives. Through their years at Erskine Academy these students have worked hard and studied to achieve what they have now acquired in the line of a preliminary education. Plans are now being made for the Honor Parts, the taking of the students' pictures at Prebles' Studio in Waterville, our class motto, and finding the cast for our long-put-off Senior play which we hope will be put on sometime this spring. Graduation and final exams are drawing near and will end our four happy years at Erskine Academy, No matter how hard we had to work, it is still our school, where we spent the jolliest days of our lives. - Ellen Austin '47 7 M JUNIOR CLASS First row: Lois Northrup, Charlene Esancy, Geneva Lewis, Lorraine Lavene, Iona Robertson, Emily Russell, Christine Chapman, Carolyn James, Beatrice Turner, Frances Black, Second row: Mr. Braley, Mary Dougie, Margaret Gower, Annie Haskell, Anita Ames, Dorothy Dow, Shirley Potter, Lucille Wentworth, Dorothy Childs, Lillian Bruso, Virginia Nolin, Georgia Haskell.

The evening's fun started with the spine-chilling movie, Lady In The Morgue. All through the show the'rattle of chains and the eerie moans of white-faced ghosts kept the audiences sitting on the very edges of their chairs. , This movie was followed by a social at which dancing and games were enjoyed. A horror house was set up in the gym and for the small sum of five cents one could buy a full evening of blood-curdling entertainment. SWING CLUB ' FoR oua Swing Club, we have a number of records, some old, and some new, which are enjoyed by all. Our new loud speaker and automatic phonograph system are a great help in supplying us with appropriate music. During the basketball season, it was neces- sary for the students to use the gym for practice, although one day a week was set aside for our Swing Club. Even then, we still had music and dancing during the day, using the corridor of the school building as a dance floor. Different classes sold soda, popcorn, and other refreshments at basketball games, and each made quite a profit. They turned part of these profits over to the Swing Club presi- dent, Grace Althenn, and new records were bought for our enjoyment. FRESHMEN RECEPTION A GRAND time was had by all at our Freshman Reception. As usual, the Sophomores had quite a menu made out for the Freshmen which they dished out in great style! The poor Fresh- men had to go through a lot of red tape such as trying to sit on milk bottles, boxing with each other, pushing beans across the floor with their noses, being blindfolded, and walking on crackers, which they thought were eggs, saying nothing of the girls ,having to wear boys' clothes, and vice-versa, to discourage them a little more. But the Freshmen were grand sports, and they all came through with flying colors. Fol- lowing the program, came a social period with refreshments being served to the newcomers at Erskine. A gala evening was had by all. RADIO PROGRAM WITH the help of Miss Sellar and Miss Dono- van, the Erskine students got together and put on a short radio program, over station WTVL in Waterville. Those taking part in the pro- gram were as follows: Bob Marr, our Bing Crosby of Erskine, sang Always Norma Scates, a pretty little Sophomore, sang For Sentimental Reasons. Coralene Withee, talented pianist, sang Tea For Two. Bud jenkins, another popular singer, sang 'Tre- tendingf' and last, but not least, our two Freshmen girls, Mary Ellen Hold and Dorothy Parker, sang a duet, Whispering Hope. Fred Kofman, one of Erskine's Veterans, made an excellent announcer. JUNIOR PLAY , ANOTHER high spot in our active school year was the junior Play entitled, He Couldn't Marry Five. It was all about a young man who goes to visit a family with five eligible daughters and falls in love with each and every one of them! To make things worse, the sisters all fall in love with the young man or think they do! It seems hopeless, but after many laughs the situation finally straihtens out to everybody's satisfaction, through the common-sense advice of the girls' grandmother. Those who took part in the play were: CAROLYN JAMES as Connie Barton, hand- some, vital mother of forty-five-the type who worries about her daughters. IONA ROBERTSON as April, a vivacious young miss, who's bugs about acting.

LORRAINE LAVENE as May, just twenty, with a seething ambition to become a great balle- rina. SHIRLEY POTTER as June, a pretty girl, who puts her heart and soul into first aid, and home nursing, and who finally wins Donald. ANNIE HASKELL as Leona, the problemchild, who's just crazy about horses. FRANCES BLACK as Etta, who hates men, and does everything in her power to keep her nieces from falling in love. JACK HASKELL as Ralph, the father of these daughters, and a worried one, too. Lois NORTHRUP as Grammy, a lovable, soft- spoken person. . JAMES GRADY as Donald Regan, a good-looking chap, of twenty-two. Altogether, we've had an active and prom- ising year at Erskine, in the line of social events. MINSTREL sHoW Song and!Music is truth, and the expression of our life. LLMORE than once in the history of the world music has been an important factor in some great movement. The Greeks had a beautiful story, half legendary, perhaps, but worthy to be true. At one time, in the very early days of Greece, the Spartans, hard pressed by their enemies, sent to Athens seeking aid, but the Athenians were too jealous to grant their plea. Fearing to refuse outright, however, they re- sorted to a subterfugeg they sent as their repre- sentative the poet Tyrtaeus a man of song and not of action, thinking that he could give no possible assistance. But how great was their error! For Tyrtaeus composed ringing martial songs, and under the inspiration of these, the Spartans renewed their courage and gained a glorious victory. 28 THE PINNACLE The Minstrel Show was sponsored by the Erskine student body under the direction of Mr. Braley and Miss Sellar. The theme of the show was South American and the hall was festively decorated. The chorus girls wore bright colored skirts and blouses and the boys were in Mexican costume. The end men and women who furnished laugh after laugh were: Regina Mandy Matthews, Lorraine Dinah Lavene, Larry Rastus Johnson, james Bones Grady, Clinton Moose jenkins, and Ernest Tambo Quintal. These darkies told jokes about many of the townspeople as well as the faculty. The olio acts were: Vocal solos by Charlene Esancy and Arlene Fitzgerald, Nancy johnson, Robert Marr, and Coralene Withee: a cowboy roundfup by Norman Campbell, Beatricia Durgin, Clinton Jenkins, Merle Seigers, Sheldon' Tracy, and Leon Ward. The gay colors of the costumes, the peppy, up-to-date music, and the highly receptive mood of the audience made this Minstrel Show one of the most outstanding and entertaining performances of the Erskine Year, and we take off our hats to Mr. Braley, Miss Sellar, and all who participated for a perfect showf' The chorus consisted of the following stu' dents: Anita Ames Marjory Ames Patricia Beckim Frances Brann Lillian Bruso Clyde Casey Beverly Clark Elaine Dougie Marion Dufour Charlene Esancy Isabella Evans Milton Farrington Mary French Arlene Fitzgerald Marie Gould Jean Hathaway Mary Hold Nancy johnson Lorraine Lavene Robert Marr Regina Matthews Phyllis McKenney Leland Norris Dorothy Parker Pauline Perreault Carrol Potter Shirley Potter ,lane Reed lona Robertson Louise Russel Norma Scates Lucy Schoppee Louise Tibbetts Sheldon Tracy Clinton Jenkins Thalia Turner Roland jenkins Coralene Withee at the piano HENRY'S MAIL ORDER WIFE HENRY'S Mail Crder Wife, is the title of a one act play produced by the class of '49 on No- vember 2. The story was about a bachelor who, while sending away for a wife advertised in a catalogue, got himself into many amusing complications. Gail Rutledge did fine work in acting the part of the diflident cowboy bachelor, Henry Crubbonsg Thalia Turner played equally as well the role of the modest mail order matron, Mrs. Tucker, Hilda Brown and Milton Far- rington provided the comedy scenesg Hilda, as Becky Simpson, the fastidious housekeeper, Micky, as a prank playing cowboy friend, Abe Smithers was played by Paul Davis with great charm and decorum. Although the minister's lines were brief, Robert Allen man- aged to throw the audience into gales of laugh- ter by assuming mock dignity. CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL THIS year's Christmas Festival was really dif- ferentl It was formal. And never has the hall looked more festive at Christmas time. The background of firs and evergreen that banked the stage made a perfect setting for the dark suits of the boys and the multi-colored evening gowns of the girls. The chorus, under the direction of Miss Sellar, sang familiar Christmas songs and carols which filled everyone with the old Yuletide spirit. In addition to choral numbers, there were readings, vocal solos and duets. The program was impressively brought to a close with a reading of the Christmas Story from the Bible, while, in the background, the Chorus hummed Silent Night. l l l 1 BOYS' BASKETBALL First Tow: Clyde Casey, Robert Allen, Sheldon Tracy, james Grady, Larry Johnson.

The students chose the name, EAGLES, by a 2 to 1 vote from the sixty suggestions presented for consideration. Frances Black of China, a junior at Erskine, and the artist of the painting, is also the one who submitted the name chosen. ATHLETICS For. THE first time in several years, Erskine Academy's athletic teams have been fortunate in being members of a basketball and baseball league. This past winter, the basketball team was a member of the newly-formed Pine Tree Basket- ball League. Other teams in the league in- cluded Williams High of Gakland, Clinton, Belgrade, and Hallowell High Schools. Erskine Academy finished in third place in the boys' division, and the girls ended their season in fourth place. As for this spring, the Academy baseball team and the girls' softball team are again in a newly organized league. The league is known as the Abenaki Baseball League. The name Abenaki comes from an old Indian tribe that once lived in this section of the State of Maine. Teams in the league besides Erskine are Good Will High of Hinkley, Belgrade, and Clinton High Schools. All the schools in the league have a girls' softball team except Good Will. Our coach, Richard Braley, was President of the Pine Tree Basketball League, and he is now serving as Secretary of the Abenaki Baseball League. As we go to press, prospects for a successful season in baseball look very promising this year with over twenty aspirants out for the team. What is more encouraging for Coach Braley is that there are six lettermen back from last year's team. With the formation of the Abenaki Baseball League, Erskine should be playing teams within its own class. This year's schedule includes eleven games, six league games, four outside games with high schools, and one game with the Alumni. BOYS' BASKETBALL IN SPITE of the fact that our team lost fifteen games out of twenty, the good sportsmanship and determination with which the boys played have made the whole school very proud of them. With six of this year's lettermen, Grady, Casey, Allen, Farrington, Nowland, and Nel- son, as a nucleus for next yearis team Coach Braley is looking forward to a much more suc- cessful season in 1948. Sheldon Tracy, the captain of the team, was high scorer with 140 point. Bob Allen was in second place with 113 points.

Our boys will have to be on their toes this year if they want to make the team. Under the watchful eye of coach Dick Braley, we are all looking forward to a successful season. Mr. Braley is a Navy veteran and has been an athletic instructor for quite a number of years. We are fortunate in having several returning lettermen: Sheldon Tracy, James Grady, Larry johnson, Clyde Casey, Bill Gray, Bud jenkins, Bob Marr, and Phil Bradford. We will be very glad to see Bob and Phil, who have 'returned to us after service with the Navy, back in their baseball uniforms. With spring nearly here, any day we are liable to see our boys working out on the dia- mond. At our first practice session, We expect a large turnout consisting of Bob Marr, Phil Bradford, jimmy Grady, Bud jenkins, Sheldon Tracy, Elwyn Hewett, Carl Watson, Clyde Casey, Stewart Studley, Larry johnson, Dean Nowland and many others. To Mr. Braley, practice means practice and plenty of it. With expert coaching and the co-operation of our boys we know a successful season is ahead. GIRLS' BASKETBALL THB GIRLS, basketball squad started out last fall with a lot of doubt in their minds. Last graduation took quite a number of good players but still a well-trained group of girls were wait- ing to take over. This year a new coach, Richard Braley, arrived at Erskine and every- one was anxious to see what was to happen when the first game took place. With the arrival of basketball season the girls who were going out for the team were asked to meet for practice. The first game was with Union and Erskine was victorious. This surprised the whole team and we went after the other games with a great amount of faith in our ability to win many of them. At the end of the season the number of games won was 5 out of 17. This year, Erskine joined a league consisting of the following schools: William's of Oakland, Hallowell, Clinton, and Belgrade. The high scorer for the season was Phyllis McKenney with a total of 115 points. . She was followed by Marion Hopkins with 94 points. Lorraine Lavene was third in line with 92 points. Girls receiving letters this year are Capt. Marjorie Ames, Lorraine Lavene, Phyllis McKenney, Marion Hopkins, Frances Brann, Christine Chapman, Anita Ames, Patricia Beckim, and Geneva Lewis. Girls receiving letters for three consecutive years are Marion Hopkins and Marjorie Ames. Those receiving letters for two years are Frances Brann, Lorraine Lavene, and Phyllis McKenney McKenney.

Boys of approximate weight and size have been matched for an interclass tourna- ment which will take place in the early spring. Since this is a new sport at Erskine, all bouts have been intramural, but next year the boxing team hopes to arrange interscholastic matches with schools from the surrounding towns. Those who are to participate in the boxing bouts are: James Haskell, Dean Nowland, Atwood Glidden, Paul Davis, Maurice Haskell, Ernest Quintal, Reginald Haskell, Ernest Wat- son, Harold Kitchen, Charles Haskell, Elwyn Hewitt, Carroll Potter, Carl Watson, Clyde Casey, Hubert Clark, Larry johnson, james Grady, Bill Gray, Leland Norris, Bud jenkins, Harland Glidden, Stewart Studley, Philip True, Dana Nelson, Philip Bradford, Robert Marr, Bob Allen, Sheldon Tracy.

Richard Fall: I don't either, I just owe them a green dollar billf' o Miss Sellar CDuring study period, to L. La' vene, who was up back when she was sup- posed to be down front,j: UL. Lavene, what are you doing up in that neck of the woods? L. La-uene: Cutting lumber. X lean Hathaway: Darling, you would be a marvelous dancer, but for two things. Bud I.: What are they dear?,' Jean Hathaway: Your feet. Lois F.: Grace, is it correct to say you water a horse when you give it a drink? Grace: Yes, why? Lois F.: Well, Then I milked the cat this morning. CHEWING The gum-chewing girl And the cud-chewing cow, Are somewhat alike, Yet different somehow. And what is the difference? I think I know now - It's that clear thoughtful look On the face of the cow. While Miss Donovan was paying her first visit to the country, she was duly impressed by the cows, pigs, and chickens. When she saw the peacock, however, her amazement knew no bounds. Look,l' she gasped, A rooster in full bloom. Filling station attendant: How much gaslll lack Haskell: One gallon please. Attendant: 4'What's the idea, weaning it?I' Miss Sellar: Are you yawning?l' Bill Gray: No, I'm giving a silent Indian war whoop! Bob Marr: 'KWhat would you say to a girl who's so nervous that when she's frightened she jumps into the nearest man's arms? Fred K.: I'd say 'Bool' Carolyn James: Why does a dog hang out its tongue while running? Frances Black: To balance its tail. Sing a song of sulphide, beaker full of lime, Four and twenty test tubes breaking all the time. When the cork is taken out, Fumes begin to reek, Isn't that an awful mess To have five times a week? Tracy's father Cro Sheldon entering at 4:00 a,m.D: What does that clock say? Sheldon: Tick Tock Tick Tock. Annoyed senior to pesky freshman: Did you ever take chloroform? Freshman: No! Who teaches it??? Miss Stephens in bookkeeping class: Bobbie, how far are you from the answer? Bobbie Allen: About three seats. Lois Cook: Do you think it's wrong to punish people for something they haven't done? Mr. Braley: Why of course not! Lois Cook: Well, I didnft do my public speak- ing. Mr. Braley in Biology class: Miss Rackleff, what is the spinal column? Barbara: It's a string of bones in your back, and your head sits on one end, and you sit on the other. THE PINNACLE 43 FRIENDLY THINGS Oh, it's just the little homely things, The unobtrusive, friendly things, The A ''won,t-you-let-mefhelp-you'' things That make our pathway light, The ''laugh-withfrne-it's-funny'' things And it's the jolly, joking things The ''never-mind-the-trouble'' things That make the world seem bright. For all the countless famous things, The wondrous record-breaking things These ''neverfcan-be-equalled things That all the papers cite. . Are not like little human things, The everyday-encountered things, The ''just-because-I-likefyou'' things, That make us happy quite. So here's to all the little things, The ''done-and-then-forgotten'' things, Those ''oh-it's-simply-nothing'' things, That make life worth the fight. RHASPSODY IN GREEN A green little chemist On a green spring day Mixed some green little chemicals In a green way. The green little grasses Now tenderly wave Gn the green little chemist's Green little grave. Marion Hopkins: Who was that fellow who just kissed you? Frances Brann: I don't know. I never speak to strangers. Mr. Higgins entered the barber shop and seated himself in the 'barber's chair. A haircut, he requested mildly. The barber looked perplexed. l'Sir, your hat. You haVen't removed your hat. Instantly Mr. Higgins was all apologies. I'm so sorry, I didn't know there were ladies presentf' A small Maine paper has changed it's column heading from Births, Marriages, and Deaths to Hatched, , Matched, and Snatchedf' Bill: Let's walk in the garden. Pat: No, I'1n afraid if we do you'll try to kiss me. Bill: Honest I won't. Pat: Then what's the use. Bud: The lipstick my girl uses seems to taste much better than any other girlis. Larry: Yeah, doesn't it? ' Mr. Braley: What are the names of the bones in your hands? Jack Haskell: Dice. Chula: You didn't roll your own cigarettes before. Why are you bothering to do it now? Fred Kofman: Because the doctor told me it is imperative that I take some exercise.
