HO-HI LIFE Page Five HOBART HARRIER HARRY GARY PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS NEARING COMPLETION MEETING DATES SET FOR CLUBS, CLASSES Brickie cross-country runners successfully opened their second season of competition in the sport by copping victories over Emerson of Gary “B” harriers, 23 to 34, and Edison’s of Gary strong squad, 25 to 30. . Cross-country running, organized last year for the first time in the school’s history by Coach Kurth, track mentor, is proving a popular falltime sport on the athletic cal- endar, with a large number of can- didates out for the “A” and “B” squads. Coach Kurth, athletic director, stated that the Ho Hi harrier squad this year would be under the sup- ervision of genial Mr. Prather, for- merly a coach of athletics i n south- ern Indiana. Brickie runners Alfred “Ace” Ritter and Robert McDonald, have been holding the spotlight so far this season, capturing first and sec- ond places respectively in both meets. Leszczynski, Luellman, Wel- ton and Hamilton also have been in on the team scoring. Willmoth and Price, both fresh- men, appear as best in the “B’ group at present. Coaches Prather and Kurth are optimistic as to the team’s chances to make a good showing in its re- maining meets with Horace Mann, Lew Wallace, Hammond Clark and Wirt High Schools. The school physician, Dr. R. W. Kraft, and the school nurse, Mrs. E. Vinzant, announce that the an- nual physical examinations of boys and girls participating in physical education in the Hobart schools are nearing completion. These examinations are conduct- ed for the purpose of appraismg the status of the individual as far as physical examination alone can det ermine; the purpose is not to try to find something wrong with the child. Efforts are being made in health education to establish desir- able attitudes on the part of the child and of his parents in regard to health and sanitation and to pro- vide a motivating force for health- ful living. They say that a chigger Ain’t much bigger Than the very fine point of a pin; But the bump that he raises Itches like blazes — And that’s where the rub comes in! — The Calumet Herald Clerk: This book will do half of your work for you. “Boob” Shearer: Fine! I’ll take two of them. Blanche Wilson tells us that a tack is a thing that you get off of more quickly than you sit down on. Reorganization plans for the high school clubs and classes are under way and are expected to be com- pleted within the week.

Page Four HO-HI LIFE GRIDIRON GAMROLS Victory! Victory! That’s Our Cry! V-I-C-T-O-R-Y! Are we in it, well I guess! We just started at H. H. S. And with that slogan the Brickies broke the ice of a three-game los- ing streak on Friday night, Octo- ber 3, by running rough shod over Panthers of Griffith in the latter’s home lair, winning by the score of 19 to 0. Missing by a point, 13 to 14, to tie Red Devils of Lowell in their Little Four conference opener, the Brickies wasted no time starting against Panthers of Griffith in their second conference game. Rose Opens Scoring Five plays after the opening kickoff, Lewis Rose, powerful hard- running Brickie halfback, slashed off right tackle, found himself in the clear, cut back to his left and out-raced the remaining Griffith backs to score, standing up, a beautiful run of 60 yards. Jack “Speed” Taylor added the extra point by cracking over center on a plunge play. Stephens, Taylor, Also Score Halftime found the Brickies out in front by a 13-0 score, the second counter coming on a 15-yard pass Home Service Station Texaco Products MAIN ST. at the BRIDGE HOBART, INDIANA For that harsh and irritated throat you developed at the Football Game USE ASPIREX COUGH DROPS The Rexall Store Mundell’s Flower Shop Phone 65 Funeral Pieces Bouquets from Rose to Stephens, the latter running an additional 15 yards. Rose’s kick for the extra point was low. Midway in the third quarter, af- ter several running plays had put the ball on the 50-yard stripe, quar- terback Stephens let go with a long pass that found its mark in the sticky fingers of right end “Cy” Ciszek, who was dropped inches short of a touchdown. “Speed” Taylor scored on the next play to finish the scoring for the Brickies. Most of the final period of the game was played by second and third stringers, who also kept the Panther attack in check. • Starting Lineup HOBART GRIFFITH Findley L.E. Taylor Truett L.T. .

The election of “Bunker” Hill as president of the “H” Club should eject plenty of spirit into the or- ganization for the coming season. Regardless of Bob’s being “pint- sized,” he has what it takes to be both a good president and pigskin carrier. If you’re interested in classy jun- ior football, you haven’t seen any- - thing until you’ve witnessed “Red” Rogers’s West Hobart Rangers in action. Drop around at the Mun- dell athletic field some Saturday mor’hing and see some really high class coaching, with a variety of all known formations. (Inciden- tally, there’s nothing wrong with our coaching, either!) Stealing the heavyweight title from Jack Bell this year we have James Alexander, import from Emerson of Gary. He tips the scales at a mere 235 pounds, has his trousers made special. . . . and is only a freshman. There’s a lot of man there, girls! In striking contrast to the above- mentioned superman, we have Wayne McAfee, smallest man on the squad. Although not much larger than an atom, when turned loose on the field, Wayne becomes a gridiron dynamo. Orchids this week to “Boob” Sheared for his team spirit and lead- ership, as well as for his willing- ness to help out on the team where- ever his services are most needed.

HO-HI LIFE Page Six ADAMS AD LIBS There are a lot of new faces at Ho-Hi this year. We hope you en- joy being here as much as we en- joy having you. . . . The weather- man predicts a mild winter, and we thank him. . . . Russia seems to have a remarkable endurance, and where does Britain get her inex- haustible supply of money? .... Don’t our new cheer leaders look grand? .... Did you lose any bets on the World Series? .... We soon can recover that lost hour’s sleep, at last, when we go back to Cen- tral Standard Time on the twenty- eighth of this month. . . . Quite a number of students, have been read- ing furiously for book reports or cramming for six weeks’ tests. Won’t we ever learn? . . The onion belongs to the lily family. Who’d ‘a thunk it! ... . Three years ago it wouldn’t have sounded possible, but I’ll wager that some of the sen- iors would eagerly exchange places with a poor, heckled freshman. You big babies! .... Better start saving your stray pennies, kids, for Christ- mas is slowly but surely creeping up on us. . . . Miss Friedrich is proving herself to be quite versa- tile, judging by the apparent effic- iency of the new library system. . . Will these gloomy days ever cease? Although I’ve known Elsie Mat- ovich since the third grade, I still marvel at her efficiency. . . There is no better setting for getting caught up on your thoughts than a walk in the rain. . . . The surface of Arkansas is more irregular than that of any other state in the Miss- issippi Vailey. . . . The most recent fad which has hit Ho-Hi is pigtails. Girls wear them now as a novelty, but oh, how they used to hate ‘em! .... ‘Bye now, and don’t forget to Boost the Brickies! — Rose Lee Adams Indiana Construction Material Co. Inc. GEORGE W.
