HO-HI LIFE Page Five There have been two recent Jun- ior High withdrawals. Kathryn Kleine, 8B student, has returned to Birmingham, Alabama, and Patricia Barrett, also an 8B student, is to at- tend the Liberty » Center School in Porter County. Jr. Hi social studies classes have been shown movies dealing with the Pueblo Indians and “Interde- pendence.” The 8B science classes seem to have gone in for star-gazing in a big way. During the home room periods, Mr. Garver has shown and explained to the students movies dealing with the stars and particu- larly with planets. The classes have been divided in- to groups which are sent out to Mr. Garver’s residence in the evening about 9:30 or 10 o’clock. Here they may witness the stars and planets through Mr. Garver’s telescope. Recently the students have been observing an unusual phenomenon which occurs annually, that of Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter, appearing with moons around them. Also they have seen the constellation known as the “Seven Sisters,” the excep- tionally blue star, Vega, and the star Persus The tentative date set for a visit by both classes to the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago is Tuesday, October 28.

Two and one-half hours of army life .... and then it was all over! Mr. Kastner went into Fort Ben- I jamin Harrison at about 2 o’clock Friday afternoon, October 24, and by 4:30 o’clock he was on the high- way, hitch-hiking to Muncie .... a free man, but financially embar- rassed. Army medicoes, after a due amount of thumping and jabbing, informed Mr. Kastner that his heart beats with such rapidity that even the army can’t use him. Ho- bart High School still can use him, however; so Mr. Kastner is ahead by a radio, shaving kit, etc., and Mr. Garver needn’t find a new teacher, the students will not have to make new adjustments . . . and everybody’s happy. Army officials instructed exam- inees not to bring much money with them. Mr. Kastner was obedient. As a result, he had to choose be- tween waiting until Monday for his free return ride, or hitch-hiking. After one Army meal, in which he ate something pink that was report- ed to be a relative of the turnip, he decided to hitch-hike. Random impressions reported by Mr. Kastner included: “Army boys seemed to be on WPA duty .... leaning on shovels and rakes .... .... Physical exams were conduct- ed in such a machine-like fashion, with approximately seventy men being examined within the course of about two and one-half hours, that I was neither impressed nor unimpressed by the Army doctors. .... I heard no bugles — only bus horns.” Indiana Construction Material Co. Inc. GEORGE W. BOND Builder Teach Your Dollars To Have More Cents! Come To Glenn ' s Toggery and Cleners Members of the first hour chorus class definitely are in the well- known groove. The six weeks’ per- iod just past was used for purposes of tuning vocal chords to perfec- tion. Friday of each week is re- served for songs of the class mem- bers’ choice. A skating party is in the offing, and all chorus members are looking forward to the event. Since only chorus students will participate, it is felt that no one should end up flat. Several of the band members are extending their music education by joining other musical organizations. During the summer Donald Mc- Cathern and Robert Baile played with the Gary Carillco Band, which won first place in Class “A” at the Chicago Music Festival and also at the contest at Riverview Park. A new organization is being form- ed in Gary at this time to be known as the Gary Civic Symphony Orch- estra. Arthur Zack, a noted cellist and composer-conductor, will con- duct the orchestra. Try-outs for those desiring to join the organization was held Tuesday night, October 14, in Gary, and two Hobart cornet players, Floyd Dem- mon and Robert Baile, passed the tests to become members of the group.

Page Four HO-HI LIFE SPORTS HASH Varsity runners on the Brickie cross-country team now have a rec- ord of three wins against two de- feats. Had there been a little more team balance, the Ho-Hi harriers would have had a clean slate. Loss- es were by margins of one and five points. Our football victory string was snapped after a winning streak of two straight. Brickies can still boost their gridiron record over the .500 per cent mark by crashing through victoriously in the last three home games. “Cy” Ciszek still holds the title of “Casanova of the football team.” Orchids to Mr. Pound for his splendid work as commentator at the home football games. Larry Findley and “Cy” Ciszek, ends, and Bill Truett, tackle, are the three Brickie warriors tied for the honor of having recovered the fumbles of opposing teams. Each boy has nabbed one muffed ball. There’s something about a foot- ball boy that’s simply captivating. How about it, girls? Froebel High of Gary replaces Til- Mr. Miller: What is your purpose in singing, Mary?

Incidentally, Froebel’s gridders and Ho-Hi’s Brickies were both handed a 27-0 defeat by Horace Mann of Gary. Consequently, this tussel can prove something. Come on, team, how about changing the complex- ion of this situation? It seeems that Coach Moore be- lieves in conservation. At any rate, he disapproved of the boys’ singing on the way over to Valpo the other night. Singing requires energy- and that’s what the boys needed plenty of during a heated Valpo game. Looking into the future, we see that the opening game of the bask- etball season is scheduled for Nov. 28, against Chesterton, and the sec- ond tilt on Dec. 5, with Lowell, both to be staged on the Brickie hard- wood. The third cage battle is to be with none other than Edison of East Gary, at East Gary. Well, students, ’nuf said — “Gbye now.” First Bride: Yes sir!

HEARS LIEUT. WILSON Lieutenant Wilson of the Gary Fire Department discussed the sub- ject of “Fire Prevention” when he came as guest speaker to the reg- ular business meeting of the Cen- tral Parent Teachers’ Association Monday, October 13. Ninety per cent of all fires, said Lieut. Wilson, are caused by care- lessness in such things as chimney fires, faulty wiring, spontaneous combustion, disposal of rubbish, use of matches, disposal of hot ashes, etc. For every minute of the day, the speaker stated, a home is burned to the ground. Five schools and five churches per day are destroyed by fire. Twenty-three per cent of all factories and forty-three per cent of all mercantile establishments that catch fire never reopen for bus- iness. These figures are appalling, he said, when it is remembered that ninety per cent of all this damage and loss is preventable. Lieut. Wilson compared fire loss statistics of the United States with those of other countries, and he cit- ed also figures regarding the loss of lives through fire as compared with the loss of lives through war. At the close of the talk, the speaker mentioned several rules to follow in everyday living that will help to prevent fire destruction and loss A cornet quartet composed of Jack Howey, James Grinn, George Vossberg, and Jack Worthington, under the direction of Mr. Ebbs, en- tertained with two selections at the beginnmg i of i hej3rogram ; Al’s Restaurant MEET YOUR FRIENDS AT AL’S Greeting Cards Lending Library Daily Paper Magazines School Supplies Rogers News Depot 336 Main St. Hobart, Ind.
