THE BASEBALL SQUAD Baseball Starting the season with a drastically modified schedule, the Black and White pasturers appear to have the makings of a izither successful nine. At present, merry battles are being waged for most of the positions, Spooner, Niles, Taylor, and Berry, being the only veterans from last year's fine squad returning to the diamond wars. Time alone will tell what the actual team will look like, but the following seem to be on the inside track for regular berths: York '44, catcher, Spooner '42, pitcher: Berry '43, lst base, McGaffin '44 2nd base, Dick Niles '43, shortstop, E. St. Pierre '42, Zlrd base: Elliott Brown '45, Cameron '42, McNally '42, Jack MacNair '44 in the field.

If you are to be an effective weapon to America in this war, you must do, have, and be everything worthwhile. Being and hav- ing both follow doing. The largest factor in doing your best is doing your utmost. Surrender everything you have-your time, your mental, moral, and physical strength, and even our money to the all-out effortg victory is ultimate. When peace again reigns, we will remin- isce and find that that effort was worth- while. The inconveniences we shall suffer in the interim will seem trivial then. As the experience of a self-imposed lash leaves no scar, resolve to swing that lash. Analyze yourself, draw out those dormant abilities, and use them where they're most needed. Plan well your future, for your future and yours and yours will determine the future of 'democracy D. E. M. Quoted from Needle Stewart: I like workg it fascinates me.

Olll' Authors ME. MYSELF, AND I By Jean Way I think I am justified in saying that lllc and Myself are my best friends. For. atter all. who sticks with Me through thick or thin as I do? Whenl go out tno matter wht-rel I always take lVIyselt' with llle. May- be it's just a habit. but I'm sure I'd feel lost without Meg and as for leaving Myselt' be- hind. I just wouldnt think of it. Whenever I hear anyone say. Oh, l wish I could have gone, it makes Me very sad, and l think, Well why 4-ouldn't I have gone along? They left Me home, too. II'heneVer I sit down to the table, I al- ways think ol' getting enough tor Myself. which proves that I am not hoggish. And when We are out walking and someone ot'I'e-rs Me a ride. who is happier for Me than I? And I wouldn't think of making Myself walk. either. I always try not to blame Myself for any- thing I have done. The very instant I start concentrating o11 Myself. you can bank on Me doing something I wouldn't think ot' do- ing. For instance. there is the time I was hunting for some eggs that I had laid down. IVell, I blunted Myself, but when I got up there were eggs all over Me. It's ll clear case ot being caught red-handed, isn't it? Egg'-zactly! We generally get along swell together, lzut sometimes people get angry at Me and kick lllv in the pants. and then I feel so bad. I don't know why I had to write this when the assignment was given to Me. SUPPOSE IT WILL EVER END? By Dot Young War is such a ghastly thingw Why must it exist? IH-ople's lives mean nothing then! Suppose it. will ever end '? On the battlefield. men are strewn With their bodies riddled and torn From bullets of the enemies' guns- Suppose it will ever end? Away from home in army camps, Our dear sons and brothers are stationed, Waiting to he called to fight our foe- Suppose it will ever end? Money is scarce and people starve, The world is in darkness for God knows how long. And all the people pray for peace 'I'o God with all their hearts-- Suppose it will ever end?
