True to the words of their coach, it was a fighting Logan team that went down to defeat be- fore Aquinas. lt is the first defeat that Logan has suffered at the hands of Aquinas since the beginning of La Crosse intra-city football. The game can be summarized by the score, Aquinas 14-Loganl3.Swell way to start a football season isn't it? Or is it? We cross our fingers and pray for the future. Still, it was a good game and we can be sure that if anyone can make a success out of our football team Coach Nibbe can, and he will. Introductions are in order. The senior class has elected the following officers: President, Donald Ranum, Vice-president, Warren Selbo, Secretary, Betty Brown, Treasurer, Arlene Slcoy. Congratu- lations, seniors, for such splendid selections. September 22, the day awaited for by so many Logan .Iitterbugs finally arrived. With as much pep as they displayed at the pep meeting, they ventured out on the crowded floor. What a thrill for all the Froshl With Bob Cundy swinging it out and a few bold dancers leading, the floor was soon a swirl of gay happenings. Seems as if our former schoolmates really do miss us, for many an alumni face was seen.

XVEEK TWU Yariety may be the spice of life, but a variety of questions can make life miserable for any student. Before we have found time to adjust ourselves to the monotony of propping a book open, our reluctant minds have been forced to function as the teachers indulge in that age-old past time of daily quizzes . History has been made! On this day of September 13, 1939, the thermometer hit a new high as the mercury rose to 950, and we, the students, wiggle and fret and fume as we stiffer in silence Human trustfulness of the highest degree was shown when Mimlacksoii, with hisuseeing eyewdog, Page 14 sfffpjijib Mathematics G52 E.

WEEK THREE We again had the traditional pep meeting, star- ring the pessimistic coach and the bashful football players. lf we are beaten we will go down lighting -such was the quotation given by Coach Nibbe before the enthusiastic group, The bridge dedication parade brightened up a gloomy Saturday morning. Our own Logan band participated, looking their very best. The sun shone brightly all morning, behind a V ,MX

WEEK FOUR It was Friday night and Logan football enthusiasts critically eyed the performance of the Logan team in its game with Eau Claire. A forty yard reverse by Gronbeck and then two runs by Grimslid provided the only tally in the Redmen-Old Abes game to give Logan its first victory of the season, 6-O. Coach Nibbe's proteges outplayed Eau Claire the first two periods and then staved off three last half rallys of the famed upstate eleven , Hank Knebes, charg- ing Logan center, spark-plugged the defense and Gronheck and Grimslid were the mainstays of the Logan offense. WEEK FIVE The White Russian Singers presented a group of folk songs common to old Russia.CWe'll take their word for it - Russian language isn't so easy to under- stanclj They were picturesque in their native cos- Page 16 tumes and their haunting melodies will stay with us for some time. The G. A. A.'s held their annual treasure hunt on the night of October fourth, the triumphant team consisting of Marion Smith, Mary Jane Bond, Anne Germanson, and 1-lerdis Gronbeck. Incidently, any member of the fairer sex seen limping can be marked as a member of this organization. The nice refined game of soccer is the underlying reason. Our band was honored this week-end with an invitation to play at the La Crosse Teacher's College- Eau Claire game, and gave an excellent performance. After being thoroughly outplayed and outsmarted in the first half, Logan's Red and White warriors came back in the second half and unleashed a beautiful aerial attack to defeat the highly-favored Rams of Dubuque 12 - 6. Eldon Grimslid, Logan's Arnie I-Ierber , began throwing passes in all directions with deadly accuracy and from then on it was Logan's game. Warren Selbo caught one long pass early in the third quarter to score the first touchdown and then caught a short flat pass from Captain Weber
