HO-HI LIFE Page Three More Noise!” Urges Mr. Kendall “Come on now, students. . . you can yell louder than that!” Imagine students having to be encouraged to make more noise. . . and by their principal, of all per- sons! Of course the occasion for all this was Hobart High’s first pep session of the current school year, held Tuesday morning, September 23, on the football field during the activi- ties period. At this first assembly of the stud- ent body of Hobart Junior and Sen- ior High School, Mr. Kendall ex- tended a sincere welcome to all new teachers and students of Ho- Hi. Students were complimented on their splendid cooperation with the administration in regard to the new 50-minute periods, new regu- lations, and new teachers. Ho-Hi’s fighting Brickies were introduced to the student body by Mr. Kendall. These gridiron men have had two tough assignments to start off the football season. They made a very favorable showing in the Horace Mann-Hobart game, and, as Mr. Kendall stated, “In the last half of the Benton Harbor game, our boys looked as good as the oth- er team.” This is regarded as a feather in the Brickies’ caps, as only four of the boys have ever participated in interscholastic foot- ball before. Tryouts for yell leaders were held, with a foursome composed of Patty Moon, Shirley Haxton, Bob Sizemore, and Junior Lautzenhiser leading off, followed by individual tryouts on the part of Grace Dom- mer, Betty Gulledge, Marilyn Burk- man, and Gerald Rowley.

This contest marked the first of a series of home games to be staged under the floodlights of the Brickie football field. Starting Lineup HOBART LOWELL Roper RE Hayden Truett RT Brownell Kazlauski RG Peterson Shearer C McClellan Anderson LG Sark Murray LT Lehman Ciszek LE Combs Stephehs QB Randolph Howell RH Novak Rose LH Kalvaites Taylor FB Carlson Officials: Bergstrom, referee; H. Mantz, umpire; C. M cManus, lines- man; Bruce Mitchell, seorekeeper. Lowell’s halfback Novak scored both touchdowns and one of the extra points. Novak scored in the first and third quarters and added the winning point on a plunge fol- lowing his second touchdown. Rose scored for Hobart on a 35- yard off-tackle run in the second quarter and place-kicked the extra point for a 7-7 tie at the half. In the third quarter Hobart drove 50 yards on short plunges with Howell going over from 5 yards out and Rose missing the kick for the extra point to give Hobart a 13-7 lead. Stephens, speedy quarter- back for the Brickies, who suffered a slight injury, was replaced in the third quarter by “Bunker” Hill. Hobart’s excellent and stubborn defense kept the Red Devils on their toes. Lowell drove 35 yards late in the third period with Novak carrying the ball over from the 1- yard line. Brickies will journey to Griffith tonight for another tough battle. Coach Tommy Moore sounded op- timistic after the game, despite the loss. “We showed a great deal of improvement”, he said, “and we’re not going to lose many more games this year.” Coach Moore in his practice this week has stressed de- fensive work, particularly tackling.
