Page8 THE. SCOTTY,GLASGOW,MONTANA Highlander Grid Squad Completes Successful Season GLASGOW'S ELEVEN WINS No one can deny that Coach Bob Breen and high light- weight l938 eleven gave northeastern Montana football fans a season of thrills with their spectacular work that began with the sound of the first whistle at the Williston game, and continued until the final whistle sounded in the fight-to-the-finish Wolf Point encounter. There was almost breathless tension as the Highland- ers, with a total of four experienced men on the squad, faced the opening kick-off against Williston, contenders for the North Dakota state championship. However, the first few minutes of play gave evidence that the Glasgow boys, expereinced or not, were out to get their men. After the first quarter of play, local fans settled back with the confidence that the Highlanders knew what to do and when, and that experience and weight are no more important than spirit when it comes to winning on the gridiron. The final score, l3-6, was a most satisfactory beginning for a good season. In the Glendive game, Glasgow took defeat, 6-0, al- though they out-yardaged their opponents 314 to l36 and had to face the disappointment of having the ball over the goal line, only to have it called back by the referee's whistle. The team then came back to take four straight on the local field from Sidney, Circle, Scobey and Malta. In the final contest--the Highlanders vs. the Wolves of Wolf Point-every player on the two teams was on the alert to block line play or back field strategy at any cost, and a scoreless battle ensued for three quarters with terrific tension on both teams and spectators. When Wolf Point intercepted a Glasgow pass for a touchdown, Glas- gow retalliated within the minute. With the score tied. the battle raged on under strain of the threat of the final whistle. With the ball in the possession of Glasgow, there was no stalling on the part of the plucky backfield. They tried for three downs to complete a distance-covering pass. On the fourth try fate took hold and the fast-moving Wolf Point halfback intercepted and carried the ball over the goal in time to make the winning score for Wolf Point. Glasgow fans, however, who were as numerous and more enthusiastic than Wolf Point's, felt they had a team to be proud of and are already looking forward to next year's championship for Coach Breen and his boys- Season's Records Taken from Score Book First First Yds.

The one prayer of all Glasgow fans and the student body is that the ll positions left by the graduating seniors will be filled by as worthy and capable players as these boys APPLAUSE OF LOCAL FANS have proved themselves to be. We only ask that through life these Seniors may give as free and determined sup- port to any endeavors they undertake as they have on the football field. ln Captain Friedl the squad had a loyal and alert lead- er on whom they could always depend for support. The long runs of our pivoting, plunging, never-failing quarter- back, George Lane, will be hard to do without. james Thill, at half, was always dependable support to the line and inspiration to the backfield. Kamla, one of our chief yard gainers, is another backfield man who will be missed. Wedum, end, Johnson, center, and Mann, guard, leave a record as linesmen that will be hard to duplicate. Osen, linesman, and Larsen and Robertson, backfield, have been faithful substitutes in the never-failing pinches. To these boys we express appreciation for faithful service to their team and school, and the best of luck in life's game. G CLUB ORGANIZED ln November, Coach Breen organized a G club. Membership to the club is based on having earned a varsity football or basketball letter. Thirty boys now belong. They include all the football lettermen from this season. The club has elected the following officers: John Wedum, presidentg Clarence Johnson, vice-president: George Lane, secretary and treasurerg ,lack Montgomery, right hand, and Darwin Markle, left hand men. They plan to have business meetings twice a month. q They sponsored the sale of tickets for the band con- cert and will act as ushers at all high school affairs. For future activities they look forward to managing the skat- ing rink to be constructed behind the Normont dairy and to conditioning a tobogganing and skiing track north of the high school. BASKETBALL IS IN SWING What a busy man Coach Straugh is these daysl Before the Scotty is on sale the basketball season will be under way and we are all expecting not one, but two, cham- pionship teams with this group of boys on the roster: David Aitken, ,lack Burgess, joe Rybok, jack Montgom- ery, Eugene Miller, John Wedum, Otis Wedum, George Lane, James Thill, Harry Farrington, Roy Christiansen, Glen Schwenke, Max Kirk, jasper Knight, Clyde Irving, Bob Thill, Lawrence Moe, Gordon Vallandigham and Bob Svingen. Though the team is equipped with new suits this year, we will recognize several familiar faces from last year. The boys are all of good height for bas- ketball. Although at this time the schedule has not been ar- ranged, we expect the first team to play Poplar, Frazer, Brockton, Wolf Point, Nashua, Chinook, Havre. Sidney and Glendive, The second team expects to play Malta. Hinsdale, Saco and the second teams of Wolf Point and Nashua. A new electric scoreboard has been added to the gym at a cost of 5175, thanks to local businessmen. The high school band will play at the games and we will all be there to back each player to do his best and bring home the championship.

Theatricals in Glasgow High Another active group is the Dramatics club. As we go to press they are rehearsing a production, lt Never Rains by Aurania Rouverol, which is scheduled for De- cember. The club holds a meeting on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month at which a peppy program consisting of skits, reading and reviews, is enjoyed. A social half hour with luncheon closes the meeting- Future Farmers Well Organized The Future Farmers of America, under Mr. l-lanna's direction, are boys who are taking vocational agricultural courses. Meetings are held twice a month with a definite program and refreshment committee. We wonder who does the serving. The officers are: John Forsythe, presi- dent: Kenneth Miller, vice president: Gail Billingsley, treasurer: Fabian Nyquist, reporter. These boys cooper- ate with different club around Glasgow. They help dis- tribute toys to the needy at Christmas, help to improve school grounds, and take a part in all contests offered by the state. A prize is awarded to the one doing the most outstanding piece of work. The Craftsmen of the School Why all the noise in that room on the bottom floor? lt's only the Future Craftsmen of America kept busy by Mr. Peters. The officers are: John Moyer, president: Mell Stevens, vice-president: Walter Olinger, secretary and treasurerg junior Mahugh, sargeant at arms. Meetings are held every two weeks. The boys practice auto mechanics, and arc welding, machine shop, forge work, and heat treatment of steel. Some of these practices really fill the building with foul odors and smoke. These boys will prob- ably turn out to be good lathe and welding workers. With the addition of the new building, the boys 'have more room and much better equipment. Publicity Reaches Far and Wide Flash! Here comes a member of the headline group, trotting down the hall looking for more exciting news and events of the day- These news hounds, under the direc- tion of Miss Casady, really do get their news and go places. They appear in the Glasgow Courier, Glasgow Times, Daily News, Great Falls Tribune and, with all their pride and glory, in the Minneapolis Journal. This fall they have already published 758 inches of news. Perhaps you have wondered whither comest the cpl- umn, Prittle Prattle. lt is written by a very humorous girl, Barbara Anderson, whose great work is really keep- ing the blues away from our door. Other columns of the feature writers are: Assemblies by Donna Bertschg Dra- matics by Patsy Jeanne Campbell, French News by Ly- ola McCleery, G. A. A. by Evelyn Baileyg music by Pri- scilla Pease, part-time work by Jane Sawyer, Girls' Glee club by Leona Covey, F. F. A. by Fabian Nyquist. Re- porters are Dorothy Bretzke, Gettie Burrus, Kathleen Gal- SGOW,lVlONTANA Page7 lagher, Lillian Grotjan, Ruth Leedham, Ruth Ness and Doris Peterson. This 'hard-working publicity staff is given assignments on Monday, and with the aid of the typing department must have them ready to hand in Wednesday morning. For the benefit of people who don't look at school news, we will give you a little idea of how it really is read. A state agent, who came to look over the shop, said he couldn't resist coming after reading the shop news in the papers. The Pep Club And last, but by no means least, is the Girls' Pep club, with the assistance of Miss Crest- It is made up of Juniors and Seniors. Their motto is Service and they are going to live up to it throughout the school activities.

Very sincerely, We Girls. INT RODUCING OUR MR. EINSTEIN just to look at Chet Griffin, one would never think he was such a restless soul, that he had such a wide va- riety of talents. But Chester is not just another science teacher, content to sit behind a pile of work books and pickled lizzards, teaching kids what makes the amoeba tick. No, he must be up and doing, it doesn't particularly matter what, whether it is wiring the school house to- gether or partitioning or unpartitioning parts of the building at random to makef a dark room Csounds in- terestingl. iAmong his many on-the-side acti- vities is photo developing. Perhaps ' you've observed trays of solution in among the bean plants or pictures in the making among the beakers and test tubes, His dark room is used for this particular hobby and the accom- panying picture is an interesting study of Chet at work. Such a beautiful study of lights and shadows, especially shadows, we think. Photo developing and darkroom construction are, however, only two of his recreations. If Mr. Einstein, alias Chester Griffin, alias Knock-knock Griffin, etc., has had a particularly strenuous day among his cultures and formulas, he reaches for four or five of his seven saxa- phones and makes music to the wee small hours for the 1 dancing pleasures of we students. Some of his happiest fill hours are spent sputtering and puttering among his paint pots, turning out poster after poster regarding the sterling Qualities of Glasgow High. Rah, rahl If. after that little bit of relaxation, he still feels playful. he starts the fountains of school spirit flowing by getting up a pep rally and airing his tonsils for awhile, together with the vivacious little numbers of the pep club fthe girls in red and whitel. All-in-all, Handy-man Griffin manages to keep prea-y well occupied and also keeps the rest of us in a constant dither wondering what he'll think of next.
