Play- ing in almost a sea of mud and a constant drizzle of rain, the Brickie grid machine looked impressive again before a crowd of several hundred fans who braved the ad- verse weather conditions to watch their favorites in action. Rose Sets Up Score Galloping “Louie” Rose set up the first touchdown on a pretty sweep around left end, good for 35 yards to the 9-yard line, where he was knocked out of bounds. Three plays were good to the 4-yard line, and a fourth down offside penalty on Griffith put the ball on the one- yard line, from where Rose crashed over for the score. “Speed” Taylor added the extra point on a plunge. Howell Adds Points After an exchange of kicks, with Howell kicking to an advantage, Albert Kazlauski, rugged Brickie guard who played bang-up ball all the way, recovered a Griffith fum- ble on the Panther’s 25-yard line. On the first play, halfback Wilbur Howell, playing his best game of the season, ripped off tackle for 25 yards to score standing up. He also added the .point on a dive over cen- ter to close the first quarter score at 14 to 0. Left end “Cy” Ciszek missed an opportunity to crash the scoring circle when Stephens’s pass in the end zone slipped over the ends of his fingers. Taylor Hits Pay Dirt The last of the Brickie score came as a result of an 80-yard drive in the final period after three first downs. Rose passed to Stephens on a flat pass, Stephens being downed on the 15-yard line. Howell added another first down to the 4-yard line, from where fullback Taylor hit pay dirt, running the score to 20 to 6. A pass, Rose to Stephens, failed to score the extra point. Hobart made twelve first downs to six for Griffith.

Harrigan Blanche Wlson Violet Radvell 1 1 Ij i n g a Cross-country is not merely a sport engaged in to determine win- ners, but, like many other sports, it offers a splendid opportunity to determine character. There follows the description of an incident which occurred during the triangular cross-country meet between Lew Wallace, Hammond Clark, and Hobart High Schools on Friday, October 17. The harriers were well on their way when one of the Hobart men, Eugene Truitt, became exhausted and fell by the wayside. A Lew Wallace boy, coming up behind Eugene, stopped and helped Truitt to his feet and ran along with him for the remainder of the distance. At the finish the two of them sprint- ed for approximately 100 yards, with the Lew Wallace boy beating Truitt by about a foot. There were five or six Lew Wal- lace men ahead of the one mention- ed above, so that the latter had no possible chance of coming in among the winners. Nevertheless, a true sport would have stopped, regard- less of how far in front he may have been. As it was,, the Gary boy sac- rificed some position to help a mem- ber of the opposing team, and he came in in the twenty-third place, with Truiitt in the twenty-fourth. Such sportsmanship as this is re- freshing to any sports fan. This phase of athletics definitely can de- termine character! A reader asks whether an editor is the person who puts things into a newspaper. . . . Land no! The edi- tor is the person who keeps things out of the paper! Mr. Miller: What direction does your house face? Wallace Riley: North and South. Alma Jackson: I think George Brent is darling. Blanche Wilson: So is John Payne. . , Dot Oakley: No. . . . Richard Dix. Robert Baile: Robert Baile! INQUIRING REPORTER WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE SOCIAL ACTIVITIES IN MODERN HIGH SCHOOLS? Joan Julian, our inquiring repor- ter of the week, received the follow- ing replies to the above query: TRENT KOSTBADE : “There should be fewer but bigger and more active clubs.” ALMA JACKSON: “I think ' there should be many clubs and social activities. They serve better to ac- quaint students with other students and teachers with students, and they are a great help in developing personality.” RUTH BALITZ: “I think social activities are an important part of any school system. They help to create a better understanding be- tween students and teachers.” MARILYN BURKMAN: “I think life would be very dull without some sort of social activities. Not only do they help us while we are in school, but they also help us to mingle with people after gradua- tion.” SOPHIE MARCHETTI: “Social life is a helpful part of modern school systems, but any trend to- ward social distinction would be harmful.” MARCELLA JOHNSON: “If there were no social activities in school, there would be nothing for ‘us kids’ to look forward to.” NADINE EATON: “Social activi- ties clay an important part in the world of todav. Persons who take part in a lot of social activities seem to get farther in the world than do persons who do not take part in activities.” HINTS FOR HEALTH “HUNCH BACK JOE” Joe hasn’t always been hunched like a camel . . Oh no, he was straighter than many the mammal; But he thought it was cute to sprawl in his seat Without an intention of being neat. But he’s learned, my dear child, that it never pays To be slouchy and lazy in your post- ure these days. Won’t you stand up straight, Chest out and head high? Just look at “Hunched Joe,” And you’ll see why! — By Marjorie Huff WHAT’S GOOD POSTURE GOT THAT I HAVEN’T GOT? I am a person around the age of 16, and I work hard in school. I sit at my desk with my carcus spread all over. (This may be a comfort- able position, but you may not know it is ruining your posture). . . Now the boy next to me sits up straight in his seat. Seeing the good habit he has formed here, I have begun to do likewise. Why? Be- cause what that boy across from me has that I haveft’t is ... • Good Post- ure! SOPHOMORES CHOOSE OFFICERS Sophomore class elections held Monday, October 20, resulted in the acceptance of the following smte: Claude Choate, president; Horace Titus, vice-president; Marcella Johnson, secretary, and Dick John- son, treasurer. BOOK NOOK WHEN DOCTORS DISAGREE In “When Doctors Disagree,” Franken Meloney tells the story of a young woman who at first seems to be like any average society girl or perhaps like a young wife. How- ever, Margaret Ferris happened to be an unusual person. ... a good woman surgeon. When a vacancv occurred for the post of assistant surgeon, Dr. Hauss- mann, superintendent of the hospi- tal, nominated Margaret Ferris for the position. It was he who later had to break the news to Margaret that the hospital board , had not ac- cepted his recommendation because she was a woman. This, plus the knowledge that it was Bill Kirkland who had preven- ted her appointment, would not have been so hard for her to hear had not the incompetent Dr. Bates been the successful appointee. Beneath the imnersonal and cold life of a large city hospital there may run emotions as deep as those in the outside world. All the effic- iency, the precision of its surgeons held in the grip of a rigid code of ethics cannot prevent doctors, nur- ses, and their patients from being merely men and women. “When Doctors Disagree” is a story of this life .... of daily dra- ma and humor, of a love that had more than its share of pain, frustra- tion, and despair before happiness was attained. Franken Meloney, with an avcur- ate knowledge and understanding . of the problems of the medical pro- ; fession, attempts to bring to the reader the story of those whose lives i are centered primarily in the realm j of medicine. „ , . — Ruth Schiess j KINDERGARTEN KIDDIES While the high school and junior high school students were busy studying and taking six weeks’ ex- aminations, the kindergarten child- ren were busy too. They were putting up a house on their stage. The house is construc- ted from brown blocks of wood, with hinges on the wood in order that the pieces may be fastened to- gether until the children find the form which best suits them. Some of the children who didnt care for the construction work turn- ed to more artistic occupations and painted morernistic - looking de- signs. Still others chose to make i pumpkins on drawing paper, color- ing them orange with black eyes.
