However, there are two kinds of sportsman- ship, namely, the kind in which one parti- cipates, and the kind Where the person cons cerned is an onlooker. The first type of sportsmanship is always stressed, but lit- tle thought or time is given to the latter. At iirst, one would say, that those who are looking on any kind of sport cannot very well be classiied under the heading of sportsmanship, but in looking on the subject in a normal light, it is evident that those on the sidelines have just as much chance to exhibit good sportsmanship, as those who are engaged in the sport being watched. An example of poor sportsmanship may be shown at once, for we often read in the paper about a game being spoiled by the actions of the spectators. Baseball games in the professional leagues are occasionally stopped by a shower of pop bottles, at some umpire, who happens to make a few de- cisions, which are unpopular with the fans. ln these cases, the ball players are usually making a mild protest, but what does Mr. Hothead and Mr. Poor .Sport do, but start throwing pop bottles at the umpire? The crowd follows, and what might have been a clean game, is spoiled for all by a few poor sports. Fortunately, this does not happen so often in non professional games, in which our high schools and colleges parti- cipate, but each school has its share of poor sports, who think that by booing the other team, when it makes good play or booing the umpire, when his decision is not just as the individual himself would have made 4 THE CADUCEUS' it, is helping their own team to win a game, are worse than wrong. Instead of helping their own school or college, they not only hurt the team's chances for having a good year, but they also hurt the reputation of the school, for a school that is known for its unruly scholars, who continually boo and howl at their opponents, soon is held in dis- favor by all other schools. Perhaps those who hoo at the games, feel that they must get rid of steam some way. lf this is the ease, why not cheer your own team with all your m'ght, thus encouraging them, and also preserving the honor of your school? At. the same time you'll know that you, yourselves, are good sports. This may seem difficult, but remember, that if the team can lose and come up smiling, you, the spectator, should be able to do so. Therefore, let us all try to cheer the home team on to victory, a11d leave the booing to the other side. ..,0-T Disproving the Can't Theory The Can 't Theory is one of the most diffi- cult to prove untrue, for unfortunately, a great many people in the present modern era, where it is believed that nothing is im- possible, cling to this age old theory, like a drowning man does to a life line, What is the Can't Theory? is the question asked by all. It was originated years ago by some person unknown to us, and steadily gains new followers, despite the fact, that it is a theory that has been and is shown to be, false by men like Lindbergh, Edison, Lin- coln, Washington, Ghandi, Einstein, and others. 1 lnasmueh as this year marks the bi-cen- tennial anniversary of Washington 's birth, let us go back to the battle of Monmouth, when that great man showed that the Can 't Theory was absolutely untrue. In this bat- tle, the Americans were defeated by the Can't Theory, and not by the British, for if Charles Lee had not been hesitant, the American Army would have won the battle instead of losing it. The defeat caused by this dreadful theory began in this fashion: Charles Lee, an American general, sud- denly ordered his men to retreat, although they had been holding their own. As they retreated, they grew more disorderly, and soon their retreat became a rout. Wash- ington, in righteous indignation, came up to Lee, and said, What's the meaning of all this ? I desire to know the meaning of this disorder and confusion. ttliy -, sir! American soldiers cannot tight British grenadiers, Lee replied. Hliy -, they CAN fight any soldiers up- on the face o-f the earth, cried Washing- ton. HAnd you're a d- poltroon! This short conversation was commented upon by Lafayette, who said that it was the only time he ever heard General Wash- ington swear. Thus we have the Can't Theory disproven by one of our greatest Americans, for Washington's statement was true, as our soldiers did fight the Brit- ish grenadiers, and the Hessians, hired by the British, and defeated both branches of the British army, winning their independ- ence. Let us remember this proof, which is just as true as the geometrical proof that ra- dii of equal circles are equal. If we do this, our school will soon be showing the other fellow around eighty percent of the time instead of iifty. Change the Can't Theory into the Can Theory. n1.0-,. Thoroughness Thoroughness is the passing through, on to the end, perfecting, iinishing, or com- pleting something. If there is one quality which, more than any other, we admire and appreciate, it is thoroughness. We cannot help feeling a contempt for things that are only half what they pretend to be, we cannot be content unless our deeds or undertakings are real THE CADUCEUS 5 and valuable. We do not rate very highly any works, trades, or professions, which have not the sincerity of the act to back them. We cannot care for a friendship which confines itself to a few occasional thoughts and words. If someone likes or admires us, we want them to show it in a thorough way. It grieves and humiliates us when only half confidences are given and shown to us, and we feel that something is being kept back from us, as if we were scarcely trustworthy. We can withhold a great deal of trouble and sorrow from our friends, if they only show their love for us enough, and if they are thorough in their regard for us. Thoroughness has its place in other things than friendship. A man of busi- ness, who only half attends to his affairs, is certainly going to be spoken of in tones that are not those of admiration. He should know that very little, if anything, can be accomplished without thoroughness, for his customers are not accustomed to look for anything worth while from a person who is shiftless, insincere, and unreliable. While we disapprove strongly the need and want of sincerity and thoroughness in others, we should do something to help pro- mote the growth of these good things in ourselves. While we are apt to weaken and be content with half doing things, we should rather be inclined not to forget the old motto, Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well. -Mark L.

Otherwise Connie Drake would have vowed that the clock on the mantel was slow. And, in spite of the fact that her brother, Paul, was giving a most exciting account of a boy who had just climbed Mount Washington, the evening meal seemed to go unusually slow. As soon as she was excused from the table, she hurried up to her room and put on her new orange and brown knit dress. There was an orange beret to match and she knew that they were very becoming to her brown hair and eyes. But, strangely enough, her excitement and delight had nothing to do with her pretty new clothes. Beverly Williains had said, Remember, Connie, seven sharp! lt's quite a trip out to Uncle Dan 's farm, as you know, and we want to get an early start. HI think a sleigh ride party is the most fun of anything,7' Connie had declared, enthusiastically, and had asked, her face both wistful and hopeful, t'Are you sure you want me, Beverly? 'tOf course, Beverly had replied, with some embarrassment, and had repeated it, her face flushing, UOf course, I do, Con- nief' Connie felt warmed and comforted by Beverly 's assurance. Connie had not been with her oldest and best pal. The incident that had broken up the friendship had oc- curred in July, and now with school in full progress, Connie was still feeling a sense of injury. The SCQIIC seemed as vivid now as it had then. Connie Drake was a welcome guest at the Willia1n's cottage on Square Lake. It was a pleasant little cottage with every- thing to make one comfortable, The last week in June-which was the first week of Connie's visit-had been idyllic. The girls had tramped daily to Daniel Williarns' farm for fresh eggs, milk, and butter, and had gone swimming twice a day. The san- dy beach lay at the far end of the lake from the cottage, and the bathers usually rowed over in an old scow. It was a fun- ny old scow, almost as large as a raft, and it required strenuous paddling with big, heavy oars to make any headway. Rowing was fun on a cool day, but on that hot July day it was torture. The girls stepped into the boat about an hour after breakfast. Even Billy, Beverly 's un- complaining young brother, said: My! It's sure a scorcher! 'tl't's your turn to row today, Connie,l' Beverly announced. Connie gasped her surprise. It was true Beverly had rowed the day before, but that day had been cool with a lovely breeze blowing over the lake. I know it, Connie replied, but I think you might help, too. It's so hot and close. THE CADUCEUS 17 Beverly did not reply. She made her way to the upper end of the scow and opened an umbrella. The sand along the banks shimmered in the glare. There was a deathly stillness, as there so often is just before a storm. Heat waves rose over the surface of the water. Connic's heavy, dark hair felt sticky and her wool bathing suit scratchy. Her shoul- ders smarted. The oars had never before felt so heavy and awkward. Connie grit- ted her teeth and sent the old scow lumber- ing through the water. She did not pause until she reached the middle of the lake. Then she looked at Beverly, apparently cool and comfortable, her pale gold hair curling in little ringlets about her face and her eyes half closed in perfect comfort, and Connie eyes Hamed. . 'flt's your turn now,l' she snapped. 'Hllhis is halfway! 'il took you all the way yesterday. You can 't be just company all the time, Connie. Be a sport. You invited me, Connie flared. 'fYou wanted me to come out here. I'd be in the shade in town, and l wouldn't have to do more than my share. Beverly was as angry as Connie. '4Well, if you want to know the truth,'l she said, her lovely face red with anger, 'tlllother made me invite you because she and your mother are such good friends. There was a moment 's silence, then Con- nie shoved the oars toward Beverly and said, After this you 'll do all the rowing. Good-by. Connie dived overboard and with long sure strokes, made her way to shore. Bev- erly could not swim very well and Connie knew she'd have to row. .She went into the house, dressed and packed her bag. Mrs. Williains was out picking berries and Billy was in the yard tinkering with his used car . What's the idea? Billy asked, pleas- antly, when Connie appearedwith her bag. lim going into town, Billy. Could you take me 'V' Connie asked, trying to keep her voice steady. Sure,7' Billy replied, so delighted to have anyone show enough confidence in his rattletrap car, that he noticed nothing wrong. Connie, with sinking heart, sat down be- side Billy, and for once, at least, was grate- ful for the sputter and roar of the engine- it prevented conversation. Connie did not see Beverly Williams again until school began in the fall. She had received an apologetic note from her, written, however, in a cool fashion and she had answered in the same manner. Hello, Beverly called, when she met Connie in the high school entrance the iirst day of school. Her greeting was low and she was unquestionably embarassed. After the first break it was easier, and they managed to chat of their studies, but the friendliness was gone. There seemed no way of mending it-until the invitation from Beverly asking Connie to be her guest again on a bob-ride. Connie adjusted her orange beret once more and descended to the living room. There was a pause in the program while the announcer spoke. ' 4Wl1en the gong strikes, it will be exactly ten minutes before seven o'clock. This ser- vice is sent by the courtesy of- Connie did not wait a second longer. Good-by, everybody! she called. Connie hummed as she walked along. She was willing to forgive and forget. Bev- erly had been very generous to take the Hrst step toward reconciliation. Connie reached the corner. The Wil- liams' house was next door. Beverly had said the bob would be at the door at seven sharp, but there was no bob there. Neither were there any guests on the porch nor a lighted living room. A woman came out of the house on the corner and started down the street. She 18 THE pauscd a moment when she saw Connie's sad figure. Waiting for the bob? she called. '4Why, it 's been gone these ten minutes. Suddenly Connie 's eyes blurred with tears. She knew she had not misunder- stood. Beverly had said, 'fRemember! Seven o'clo-ck! And Beverly had delib- erately left ten minutes before the appoint- ed time! The town clock was striking as Connie stepped onto her own porch. Automati- cally she counted the strokes. Seven! Her anger seethcd within her. Beverly 's treat- ment of her on that hot July day had been impulsive, this was deliberate. Connie entered the house, wearing a forced smile that deceived no one , least of all her brother, Paul. They've gone! she said, lifelessly, and sank into a chair. I--guess-I-misurr derstoodf' Tell you what, Sisf' Paul smiled mat- ter-of-factly, you take my ticket and go to the Public Speaking Contest. Cousin Gene is speaking. I can 't go myself. Must cram this history exam stuff. Thanks, Paulf' Connie said, taking the ticket. I must go somewhere. When she arrived, Cousin Gene spied her and begged her to go up back stage and prompt him in his speech. Connie felt calmer with something to do. Paul, industriously studying about Na- poleon, sprang to his feet when the door bell rang. Instead of ringing once, it kept up a continuous jangling. He jerked open the door, and Beverly Williarns, followed by her excited crowd, burst into the house. 'LWhere's Conniedlw Beverly inquired anxiously. Over at the high school, Paul replied promptly. Over at the high school ! Beverly 's ex- clamation was almost a sob. CADUCEUS Talk about a mean trick! one of the girls spoke up. 4'.Say, let is get this straight, Paul said. Connie went up to your house, Beverly, at seven-and the bob had gonef' t'It happened, she said, Hthat the bob drew up at our curb while the clock was striking. f'We'll give her a chance to explain any- wayf' said Paul. t'I'll run down to the school. Be back in a jiffyf' When he entered the auditorium, Gene was giving his speech with great gusto 5 Paul, looking the crowd over, could not see Connie anywhere. When he got back to the house he was almost as sore at Connie as Beverly was. '4She wasn't there, he said shortly, you might as well go on. 4'All right, replied Beverly. Paul again settled down to Napoleon. Suddenly the door opened, and Connie dashed in. After explaining to Paul where she was when he was at the school and hearing about Beverly is being there, she said, 'tllm going to the party. I 'm going to walk out, it 's only a little over three miles. I've hiked it before. In the summer. It's a whole lot dif- ferent now, Paul argued. I'll be careful, Connie promised, as she pulled on her mittens and an extra heavy sweater. i'Don't worry. 'Bye, Paul. After studying for a half hour, he called Billy on the phone. Billy said the old bus was raring to go and he'd be with Paul in no time-just had to get her tuned up. The tuning up took almost three- quarters of an hour, but at last they were on their way to Dan Williams' farm. Once out of town, Connie walked rapidly, occasionally jumping aside for passing ears. Beverly wanted her! How good that made her feel! THE CADUC EUS' 19 On one side of the narrow road were stony cliffs and on the other side was a steep embankment, sloping down to an old logging road. All of a sudden she heard the back-firing and rattling of an ancient and none too de- pendable engine. As Connie stepped out onto the edge of the embankment into the soft snow, she felt herself slipping. Wild- ly she clutched out and grabbed at some tough ground pine. Luckily it held. She could not see the road, but she heard the banging car go past and on up the road. But she did not feel discouraged. All she had to do was to scramble back and con- tinue her hike. This was easier said than done. As she braced her feet in the snow, the ground pine that she was holding onto broke, and Connie went slipping and slid- ing farther down. When Connie at last picked herself up and looked around, she discovered she was on the old logging road. She knew if she followed this road that she'd eventually come out on the highway. Suddenly there came to her ears the sound of familiar laughter on the road above. It must be Beverly 's party she said to herself. But the team seems to be headed toward town. Loudly she called as she struggled on through the deep snow. The hilarious voices drowned her cries, and so she was obliged to keep on and just wait. In the meantime, Paul and Billy had made good time, and had caught up with Beverly's party. Neither group had seen a sign of Connie and they were consider- ably worried. 'tConnie may have fallen and broken an ankle or something,l' Beverly declared, 'tWe'll all go back and look for her. 'tWhat? Again! inquired several sar- castic voices. Yes Again! Beverly answered. HWhy, Connie 's one of my best chumsf' The team was turned around. 'tPark that car here, till we come back, Beverly directed. I don't want Connie scared olf the road. You two can ride with us. Even though the bob went almost back to town, Connie of course was not found, and it was a very sober crowd that returned to Billy 's car. And then such squealing and laughing arose that even the tired horses reared and plunged. For there sitting in Billyls car, was Connie herself! How did it happen? everyone asked, at once. I fell over the embankment, Connie explained, Hwhen a car went by. I can understand now that it must have been Billy 's. Then I couldn't get back up again 5 so I walked along the wood road. I heard you go by, and called, but you couldnlt hear, so I had to go on. When I finally came out on the highway, what should I see but Billy's deserted car! I knew you id all come back. Oh, Iim so sor- ry I caused so much trouble. Beverly, I-I-. 77 I understand, Connie, said Beverly, and looked squarely at her friend. Somehow both girls knew that all petty misurfderstandings and grudges betwxeen them were forever at an end. -Perry, '34. -Agni DOWN TO THE CITY OF DEATH Perspiration stood on my brow. I felt a chill run down my spine, and my hair almost seemed to stand on end. I became :faint and stumbled to a chair. After a while, my brain grew clearer and I gath- ered the scattered ends of my thoughts to- gether. All I could utter was t'The Boss I While 'sitting there the events of this age crowded on my mind. g s 20' THE CADUCEUS' The terrible War of 1937, when one-half the world fought the other, had finally come to an end and peace once more ruled the thoughts of people. Japan, Great Britain, France, Germany, and America had been the conquerors, their power now swayed the universe. There were no more naval conferences, standing armies, navies, and large battleships. War had been success- fully outlawed. The world itself had progressed in this time of peace. The people had finally at- tained contentment and happiness. Chi- cago had become the largest city in the world, and boasted about skyscrapers and elevated streets. Why, the Empire State buildings-some of them were over a mile high! They were contructed with no Win- dows, the air being pumped in by means of tubes. These great structures were erected on an unusual kind of a base that they might move with the sun. Huge air cars carrying about a thousand passengers hitched to these Vast towers of aluminum. These air cars could circle the world in less than a week. But what was the use of let- ting my thoughts wander like this? Why not brace up and face the Boss? The next morning I stood before a. large desk in a private office. I was faced by a small, squint-eyed man about seventy-five years old. He was The Boss. The Boss was the master mind of the age, the terror of the younger generation, for he gave out the young man 's life work, picked out his wife, told him where to live, and held con- trol over his possessions. The Boss and I had a long talk during which I learned that I was never to be married, but, worst of all, I was assigned a terrible job. I, HD. X, was to go to the center of the earth and explore. In a very short time preparations were completed and I was off. What a terrible noise the rocket made as it started! This rocket was pencil-shaped with a point al- most minute. There was one window made of strong, thin, polished steel, so thin that one would mistake it for glass. The com- partment became very dark and hot. I choked for breath 5 I fell to the floor. Af- ter consciousness returned, I staggered to my feet and rushed to the window. Why, it was as light as day without! I must have gone straight through the earth. But no, the earth's surface did not look like this-all honeycombed rock of myriad strange hues. The rocket was still plunging forward, cutting right through the rock. Occasion- ally it would pass through a large open space, like an enormous hole. At last the rocket stopped, and I got out. I was on a large plain. I could not see any sky over- head, but there were many strange lights moving back and forth. In the distance I perceived what ap- peared to me to be skyscrapers. But how silly! Skyscrapers at the center of the earth! And there couldn't be anything like that without people to build them. I finally reached the city. But what was the meaning of this strange silence that rested over everything? Were its inhabitants concealed and watching my movements with curiosity, or possibly with animosity? I experienced several cold chills as I walked down that silent street with no sky over- head and only those strange lights moving back and forth, back and forth. Every- thing was vacant, not a sign of life any- where. On my exploration, I passed through many buildings and streets far more mod- ern than those on earth. And although everything seemed to be in the most excel- lent state of preservation, I came upon no sign of life of any kind. At last my wan- derings took me to a large temple-like build- ing. I opened the door and looked upon millions of human bones and skeletons. Just limagine my sensations, when I was all alone in the center of the earth in the heart of a great, deserted city that was far more THE CADUCEUS' 21 advanced than any on earth, as I stood in the presence of countless human skeletons in that gold-colored burial temple. Had I entered a city of the past where everyone had perished thousands of years ago? I returned to the plain where my rocket rested. I started the controls for the re- turn journey. It roared loudly and sud- denly stopped. There was nothing to do but try and get a message to the upper world. Through my television set, I final- ly got, The Boss. I told him what I had seen, and that the rocket was no longer of any value. I asked him how I was to re- turn. He didn't seem at all pleased, but he told me to return to the temple and fol- low a street that was in front of it. I must keep going in a straight line. I did as I was told to do. I left the City of Death behind me and came upon a dark tunnel. Thanks to the food pills I had for food and drink, I did not have to carry a huge sack on my back. I followed this tunnel for days. These days were meas- ured for me only by my desire for rest and food. They turned into months. I was driven almost crazy at times for there was always the same long, narrow tunnel. .Sometimes I would have to crawl for miles. One day I noticed a change in the tempera- ture, and I could smell fresh air. I decided that I must be nearing the surface of the earth. I hastened my weary, wasted body along. I had arrived, but blocking the entrance was a huge boulder. My food pills had given out. Human life at hand, and I was stopped by a boulder! Vainly I tried my weakened strength against it. I lay for hours becoming weaker every min- ute. Wliat was that? I screamed as loud- ly as I could. Now, I have fully recovered and am en- joying life to the full. The Boss has be- come a great friend of mine. I told him of my adventures and struggles. He mere- ly nodded his head and handed me a long telescopic instrument. I looked through it as he had indicated and feature my aston- ishment at realizing that it was the City of Death in the center of the earth at which I was looking. The Boss said he had been aware of my progress every day, and it was he who had the rock at the entrance re- moved. I asked him what he knew about this city and he informed me that Way back in the ice age, when the world was partly covered with ice, humans sought refuge in the earth. For many years they built that long, narrow tunnel into the center of the earth. There they lived for thousands of years, and their brains developed to such an astounding degree that they reached a stage far beyond that of even our own age. These people were not able to live at the center of the earth after the ice age had passed. Many of them chose to die there and so betook themselves to the temple of golden hue, where I had seen the bones. The rest vacated their vast city at the earth 's core , and followed the tunnel to the surface. However, they did not return to this land lighted by the sun in the same civi- lized condition. They emerged as wild, un- civilized cavemen. I was given freedom to marry by The Boss. I did not care to accept this grant, however, because I could not have the wife I wanted. I requested that if I were to be rewarded in any way at all, it should be in the form of another dangerous, but thrill- ing commission. The Boss gave me a glance of approval and ordered that the tunnel be converted into a deep shaft, through which huge elevators would carry thousands with lightning-like rapidity. He then turned to me and outlined his plan to have this dead city repeopled. My com- mission was to be his, The Boss', personal representative in this great undertaking. --H. Dyer, '32, 22 THE CADUCEUS' ADVENTURES OF A YOUNG DEPUTY SHERIFF The morning sun shone brightly on the little town of Wayne as young Bud Ran- kin stepped from the office of Sheriff Jim Williams. Bud was a young man of twenty years, and he had just been made deputy sheriff by Jim Williams, the high sheriff of Pembroke County. As Bud stepped out on the street, he was feeling as though he could handle almost any job that came up, as far as sheriffing was concerned. He was just preparing to mount his -horse when a stranger stepped up to him. For a mo- ment Bud had a feeling he had seen that face before. Good morning, Mister Deputy Sheriff, said the stranger in a smooth voice. f'G00d morning, stranger, replied Bud. 'fYou are the new deputy sheriff of this town, arenit you? questioned the stranger in a sneering voice. 'fYes,7' replied Bud rather crisply. Bud was on the point of asking the stran- ger what he wanted and who he was, but before he could voice his thoughts the man had turned away and was gone. As Bud made his way homeward that evening, he seemed unable to get his mind away from the stranger whom he had met earlier in the day. He felt he had seen this man before, but where or when he could not remember. For two weeks things progressed very well. Bud was getting along fine with his new job, until one day, Sheriff Williams was called away on a business trip for a week, and Bud was left alone to take care of the sheriff 's office and responsibilities. Just as Bud was seating himself in the office chair, after the departure of the sher- iff, the telephone rang and a vaguely famil- iar voice informed him that the stage was going to be held up seven miles out of town, on tl1c Silver Lake road, and that he had better hurry right up there if he wanted to save the stage. At first, Bud was perplexed and did not know just what he had better do. The sheriff had told him to stay in town unless something very important hap- pened, sthat would make it necessary for him to leave. Bud had a feeling he ought to stay, but still, if the stage was going to be held up, he must do something and do it immediately. After Bud had collected his wits, the first thing he did was to call in a man about his own build, deputize him, change clothes with him, and send him to meet the stage with instructions not to let anyone know who he was, if he could help it. Next, Bud closed the office and made things look as though there was no one there. After pre- paring himself for a hasty departure, if necessary, he sat down in the back corner of the office, where no one from the outside could see him, and waited. Just why he waited or what he was waiting for, he did not know 5 but, nevertheless, he had a feel- ing something was going to happen before long. At just exactly four o'clock, the time the stage was to be held up, a shot sounded, followed by three more in succession. Bud searched the street just as a horseman was disappearing around the corner. Bud ran down the street, through an alley and reached the next street through which the horseman must pass in order to get out of town. He was not a moment too early in arriving there. The horseman was coming, at breakneck speed, straight down the street. As the horse and rider sped past, Bud fired at the horse and scored a hit. In less than a minute, Bud, horse, and horse- man were piled up in a heap together, be- cause the horse, when hit by the bullet, jumped straight at Bud, who was unable to get out of the way. A fight followed in which Bud was vic- torious. During the struggle, Bud was un- able to find out with whom he was fighting: THE CADUCEUS 23 but as he picked himself up, after knocking his victim senseless, he immediately recog- nized him as the stranger whom he had met the day he was appointed deputy sher- iff. As Bud handcuffed his prisoner, a crowd gathered around to see what the excitement was about. MHe is the fellow,'i shouted someone, pointing to the stranger. 'tHe is what fellow? asked Bud. UWhy, the one that robbed the bank and killed the cashier,'7 replied several voices. 'tl guess you have me cornered, spoke the stranger, as he regained consciousness. HI am the one who robbed the bank, and wounded your father, fifteen years ago. You were a very small boy at that time. I met you just outside of town, and thought your father was going to try to stop me. I got away with the money that time, and would have escaped this time if it hadn't been for you. 'AI thought you looked familiar, replied Bud, as his mind recalled the time his fath- er was shot by an unknown man and he, al- though a mere boy, had caught a glimpse of the man 's face and had remembered it. NHow did you happen to be in town? Didn't I pass you on your way to meet the stage this afternoon, after I called you on the telephone? questioned the stranger as Bud locked him in a cell. HThat is for you to figure out,l' replied Bud as he manufactured himself a cigar- rette. The next day Sheriff Williams returned home, and was well pleased with the work of his new deputy. V UThe reward on that fellow is one thou- sand dollars, and I guess it belongs to you,l' the sheriff told Bud. Very good pay for a few hours work,', mused Bud as his mind pictured what he would do with the reward. -Theodore Howe, '32. CO-OPERATION VERSUS EGOISMH Harry Winters was playing a one man hockey game. It mattered little to him who won the game as long as he won his share of goals and points. His record was thir- teen goals, besides being a star man. Re- presenting the Atwood Memorial High School, he was right in line for winning the county championship, which included a pair of handsomely finished Swedish hockey skates. We will leave Harry Winters for a while and watch Marty Maxim of Nor- wood High School. Marty Maxim was fast. Better still, he was clean and cooperative. He had played hockey ever since he had come to Norwood three years ago. As the puck was shot to Marty by Huck Hartley, the Norwood cen- ter, Marty flashed down the ice and scored through the goalie. He had a knack of doing such things very neatly. His left hand shot had all apposing goalies puzzled. It was Saturday morning! This was the day for the big rival game of Atwood Mem- orial and Norwood High. The game start- ed with a bang, but Norwood was doomed to defeat from the start. As the puck was dropped, Huck Hartly, the Norwood center, took it very deftly and snapped it back to Marty. Marty went down center ice and passed to Tommy Tompkins, who, as all beginners, lost the puck to Harry Winters. Traveling up the left side, Harry shot a goal. Goal after goal was scored by the star, Harry Winters of Atwood, who started from center ice and traveled through to the goal, always alone. At the latter part of the game Atwood's score was twelve and Norwood's only three, all scored by Marty. They were back at center ice again. The Norwood center shot the puck to Marty. Carrying the puck through the Atwood de- fense, Marty was in perfect position for his tricky left side shot. But Marty Maxim Q4 THE CADUCEUS' never played a one man game. He quick- ly passed to Tommy Tompkins, who tried hard to penetrate the Atwood's goalies' defense. His shot was true, but was plucked from the air by a heavily gloved hand. This was too bad. Norwood had lost their game. The crowd was congratulating and load- ing praise on Harry Winters for his star scoring and distinctive work. Tommy Tompkins caught up with Marty as he was leaving the ice, dejected and crest- fallen. 'tMarty, old pal, why did you pass to me when you were in line for a perfect shot? quizzcd Tommy. MToinniy, replied Marty, I believe in playing a co-operative game. You tried hard, but you were up against a super- man. HI 'm sorry, 'I was Tommy 's only reply. It seemed evident that Harry represent- ed his county and would receive the prized skates. At least., everyone in Norwood thought so. Two days later Marty received a telegram from the county scout. The message spoke in a simple language: L'We are pleased-stop-to appoint you- stop-for the county representative. 'Co- operation always creates victory. -stop- Skates on way under another mail. -James Francis VViles, '32. . mlighl HOW THE HORNETS SAVED THE LANES It was a bright June morning, and the little clearing around Caleb Lane's place was Hooded with sunlight. It was only six o'clock, and Caleb Lane and his wife, Mar- tha, who lived in the cabin made of rough hewn logs, were just getting up. The Lanes lived about ive miles from the near- est settlement, which consisted of eight log cabins and a stockadc, for, in those days, Indian attacks were ever being made, and those, who had little defense for their home, were apt to meet a horrible death. Thus we have Martha 's question: t'Have ye looked around the clearing, Caleb I? Yes, Martha, everything 'pears safe enoughfl answered her husband. HWell, you let the dog out, anyways, so as to make sure, responded his wife. Cautiously opening the door, he called softly to his dog, and let him out. Caleb knew that the dog would not fail to pick out any lurking band of Indians. In a lit- tle while the faithful dog came back, and both Caleb and Martha felt more secure. Caleb went out, and soon returned with some water from a nearby creek. After eating a breakfast of parched corn and deer meat, making up in quantity what it lacked in variety, Caleb picked up his rifle and started for the door. As he was doing this, he heard his wife exclaim, Drat those pes- ky hornets! Wl1at is the matter, Martha? asked Caleb, t'Did another hornet get in'Zl' '4Yes, another did get in, and I know what I'm going to do right now, grimly assured his wife. I'm going to take this pole and knock that nest down this minute, even if I have to stay in the cabin all dayfl Now wait a minute, Martha, said her husband. You know those hornets never did you no harm. Let 's let 'em stay there, for after all, they sorta have as much right here as we do. HAH right, Caleb, maybe you're right. We 'll let 'em be for a while, assented his wife. The next day dawned as brightly as its predecessor, and Caleb went through the usual precautions. But this morning, the dog did not return, for, just as he reached the edge of the clearing, a heart chilling yell arose, and the sharp crack of a rifle followed. Instantly the dog, who was wise to his duties, gave several barks, and then set off for the settlement. The Indians, ten in number, shot at him, but missed. THE CADUCEUS' 25 Meanwhile, Caleb was quickly barri- cading the little cabin, while his wife loaded the two muskets which he had, besides his rifle. The Indians rushed toward the cab- in, but quickly vanished, as Caleb's rifle spoke, causing one of their number to fall, fatally wounded. 4LWished I'd waited till they got near- er,H growled Caleb. HThey'll be more crafty now, and plan up some deviltry that'll git us. Even as he spoke, three of the Indians suddenly rushed to one side, at an angle too acute for him to shoot at them. His wife quickly crossed to the side where the Indians had just gone, and kept watch. Caleb gave a groan, and cried to his wife, See, what did I tell you, they 're advanc- ing on us behind that mass of bushes. They know that they can get us before I have a chance to shoot more 7n two of 'em. Those from the side will sneak along up to the cabin and pot both of us from the opening there. ' His wife quickly grasped the situation, and quietly said, HNOW Caleb, I'm not so sure of that. She was preparing to say more, but just then, a terrific war-whoop pierced the air, and her husband muttered, 4'Here they come. Wliile Caleb shot at the onrushing In- dians, Martha seized a long pole, and pushed it through the peephole over the door. The peephole was just opposite to the big hornet's nest which hung from the eaves of the cabin, and of which Martha had complained yesterday. Giving the pole a deft push, she hit the nest squarely in the middle, just as the foremost Indians had reached the door. Instantly, horrible yells arose from the outside. Her husband saw what she had done and praised her, saying: '4Good work, Martha, I guess we'd better be going. Holding Martha by one hand and his rifie with the other, he cautiously sought the door. The minute they reached it, they ran for their lives, expecting any minute to hear a bullet whiz by their ears, but, by now, the Indians were too much oc- cupied to pay any attention to their intend- ed victims. Indeed, both Martha and Ca- leb had several very sore spots, where their lifesavers had stung them. Hastening towards the settlement, the Lanes looked back, and saw that their cabin was burning 5 but they felt safe, as the settlement was right nearby. They could even hear the shouting of some of the set- tlers, who, having been warned by the ar- rival of the dog, were coming to their res- cue. Turning away, Caleb remarked to Mar- tha, We7ll build there again next spring, but we must be sure and have a hornet's nest over the door, with hornets just like those and us, old settlers. -F. Pendexter, '33. i..0 THE ADVENTURES OF TOMMY It is midwinter at Cherry Lane College. All activities are flourishing. Cherry Lane is a well known women's college situated in a small New England town. There is a great excitement at Cherry Lane. Thomas O'Day, the famous skating champion, is to come to the college! A man in the midst of so many girls! For two whole weeks! This is an extraordinary event. QMen are allowed at the college. only for a very short time.J This famous man Chandsome, tooj is to come to Cherry Lane to teach the girls how to skate. Of course, the girls know how to skate Csomej, but they voted to be taught more about this art, and who would be bet- ter to teach them than Thomas O'Day. Let us listen to a scene in Barbara Benton's room. Several girls are seated around the room. They are Alicia Grey l 26 THE CADUCEUS QAD, Lorraine Shelley CRaineD, Janet Chilton CJanj, and Barbara Benton QBarbsj. 4'Girls, just think of it! A real human young man at Cherry Lane ! The only man we ever see are the 'profs' X uYes, and isnlt he handsome! Just look at this picture! Cnewspaper clip- Pineb. 'tBut do you think he will skate all the time'Zl' HSay, did you ever try to skate in your sleep TV, 'KCf course not, silly, but do you think he will go to our 'prom' banquet and con- certs? 'tYes, he will. He'll have to. We ,ll make him. 'tWhen will he arrive?l' HToday on the 3:45 train. Say, girls, it is two now. 'We'll have to hurry to get everything straightened around before we go to the train. HO. K. Let's get busyf' Now let us see the station of Cherry Lane at 3 143, that same day. The girls are eager- ly watching for the train. It appears around a bend in the distance. Oh, I'm so excited I could flyf' ttWliy don 't you? Oh, her wings aren't sprouted yet. t'Blah. LL CL We'll have to be very nice to him at first. Don it grab him, but act as though he were a professor. But I thought you said to give him a nice, warm reception. Well, do what you think will make him stay longest. Let's see if we can see him. Wliy, here he comes! t'How do you do, Mr. O'Day'V' 'tYes, we're on the reception committee of Cherry Lane College. 'tWelcome to our college. HWe hope you'll have a good time. Weill try to give you one. 'But I-I-eh- HDon't bother to say anything. UMay we call you 'Tommy'? HYes, do let us. Mr. O'Day is too long. ttYes, everybody calls me Tommy. The girls made very rapid progress wget- ting acquainted . In no time at all Tom- my was an old friend. The days that followed were very happy ones for the girls. They seemed to please Tommy, too. He attended their dances, concerts and other social affair. After Tommy had been there a week the girls held a private meeting. MWell, girls, what do you think of Tom- my? HHe's just grand V' 'tBut he isnlt as good a skater as I thought he'd be. No, he isn't. 'tHels not doing the best he can. He suits me as he is. HHe's Wonderful! 'tHe doesn't look much like his picture but then, news pictures aren't very clear. That,s right. Let's go find Tommy now. He's out practicing skating. The next week passed by quickly. It was the day for Tommy's departure. Cf course the girls did not want him to go. He had been a very good sport and friend. Tommy was to leave at four that afternoon. It was shortly after lunch when Tommy called the girls together to Usay something importantf' The time was set for two o'clock in the main hall. The girls ap- peared on time. Tommy took his stand on the platform. 'tGirls, he said, I have had a very good time here for the past two weeks, and certainly appreciate having been asked. Now I have a confession to make. On the train on which I came was another young man. He is known to you as your errand boy and all-around man. He is about my age. We look somewhat alike. He can skate, too. Maybe you've seen him. He THE CADUCEUS 27 doesn't like social affairs. He has never been a right-hand man before. Perhaps you wonder why I am telling so much about him. You see, I am he, and he is I. In other words, he is Thomas O'Day, the skat- er. I am Thomas, but I am Thomas Sheri- dan. I should have been your chore boy, and he should have been your instructor. At the station, when you received me so heartily and called me Thomas O'Day, I knew you were very much mistaken. I tried to get a word in edgeways, but I could not. I couldn't see why you would receive a chore boy so grandly, but decid- ed it was because men are lacking around this place. I let you call me Tommy be- cause that is my name. When I arrived at the college and was taking a look around the place I met a young man, who was running wildly to- wards me. He immediately told me he was Thomas O'Day, and that he wanted to swap places with me. He saw the wild meeting at the station and decided he wished he were somewhere else. He had come here to get a rest, but he thought, for a while, that he would have to seek it in some other place. He knew the girls were mistaken about names, so he decided to let me be Thomas O'Day. You see, I like so- cial affairs, but do not know much about skating. Well, anyway, we got along O. K. Girls, do you hate me for being an im- personator 'Z ' ' Of course not, but where is the real Thomas O'Day? We must explain to him. We wouldn't have had this happen to him for anything. He left on the 11 o'clock train. He left this note for you. - What does it say? Cherry Lane College girls: I have ap- preciated tl1e rest very much. The work wasn't at all hard. Aren't there any more old fashioned girls in the world, or are they all modern? Don 't blame Tommy for this, but treat him nicely in the future. Thomas 0'Day. Isn't he hateful? I'm glad we didn't know him very well. But he's supposed to be a marvelous skater. 4 ' Skating isn 't everything. ' ' '4Our Tommy can skate well enough for us. But how did the picture in the paper happen to look like you? There was a mistake in the placing of our pictures in the paper. My picture was to have been in the paper next day. The mistake was explained in the next edition. Well, girls, we 've gained a good friend and sport, and listened to an exciting story all through the mistake of a newspaper. Let's go to the 'dorm' now and get ready for our bridge party. Of course you'll come, Tommy. You have a standing invi- tation to all of our affairs. So long, Tom- my, see you later. -Maxine Richardson, '33, LHQHH THE HUNTING TRIP Pa and I were picking apples. It was a ivery cold day. The strong, raw wind blew from the Southeast, feeling very much like rain. Pa suddenly spoke up from the oth- er side of the tree, and said, J ack what do you say? Let 's go bobcat hunting tomor- row, if we can finish picking these apples today. Tomorrow came with a little rain, enough to dampen the leaves and grass, making it easy to move about the woods without be- ing heard. We packed our knapsack with food enough to last a couple of meals, plen- ty of ammunition, and a couple of thirty- thirty rifles and started on our way. Down through the pasture we went, eag- er and really thrilled to have the day off, as it was seldom we had the chance to go, 28 THE CADUCEUS' because farming calls for almost continu- ous labor. When we had gone about four miles away from home, we were well up in the notch where the mountains rose high on both sides of us, and the ledges looked down upon us like gruesome creatures. Suddenly, about a rod from me, I saw a cat. He was walk- ing along as if he were ruler of the notch. Pa took a quick aim at him and, 4'Bang!l' He hit the cat, but not fatally. We tracked the animal along the foot of the ravine, about half a mile. There, he suddenly turned upward toward Ball Head Moun- tain. Once we saw where he had lain down. We thought that he was tired or Weak be- cause it looked as though he must have been bleeding quite badly. We came to Pulpit Ledge, Cealled so obe- cause of its resemblance to a pulpit in a churchj I told Pa to stop there while I went around and tried to stop the cat from getting around the other side of the rock. We were both very anxious to get our game, as, no doubt, the pelt would be worth about twenty dollars to us. 'As people on a farm do not have very much surplus money, we knew that it would make the County Fair a real holiday for us. A Suddenly, I heard Pa shoot three times, just as fast as he could pump the shells in- to the magazine of the gun. Then, how he shouted! I called to him, but could get no response, only he kept on shouting as if he were greatly alarmed. I was going to- ward him as fast as I could. Onward I raced through the underbrush and thickets of hemlock. I heard' a crashing coming to- ward me, as if a heavy animal were coming, and, about six feet from me, lumbering along was a large she-bear. To me she looked about as large as an elephant. I up and' shot, but didn't even hit her. I was so excited, I might have aimed at the sun as far as I know. I was really frightened. I was taken so unaware! I went to where Pa was, and there 'he was, sitting on a rock, wiping the sweat off his brow. He had stood there waiting for me, when all of ag sudden he felt the ground quiver under his. feet. jThen there was-. a. regular upheaval' and t'Whoosh! out came abcarl Pa so near the den, when thebear jumped out, that it knocked him over. One can imag glne the surprise it gave him. He said, three cubsfollowed her. I did11 it see them, and, to this day, I still think he wasxisee-, ing things. ' I ,V As wewere standing there, I looked up to' a crack in the ledge. If could see a couple of snapping eyes. I gave a good shot at it, and could see that I had hit it ,A as it lay there, quite still. I took a pole and reached up and pulled out a great Canadian Lynx. As we stood there, admiring our catch, we' heard a snarl that would fairly make one 's blood icurdle. It was the big cat's mate looking at us from the very hole from which the bears came out, not more than iifteen feet from where we stood. We both seemed to shoot at the same time. Iguess both shots were true, as the head of the 'cat was nearly blown off. It also had a broken hip. No doubt it was the cat we had first sighted, and it had gone into the den where the bear was. That was what suddenly drove the bear out. The bobcat, Canadian Lynx, and other members of the cat family are greatly feared by all of the rest of our wild animals, for, when cornered or hungry, they 'Will attack anything with their deadly claws., We tied the dead cats together, then fas- tened them to a pole and ,started home. q The folks at home were astonished at our catch. The pelts netted us thirty-four dol- lars, and, to our astonishment, there was a bountyof ,ten dollars on cats, which made a total of fifty-four dollars. We-had a great time, and a great story to tell our children, and best of all, alliitlie warm clothes we needed for the coming winter. We felt as if our day had been well spent. e I I ' -P.

A very interesting debate was held on the following subject: Holsteins vs. Jerseys. Arthur Cummings, a member of the Norway Chapter, had the honor of being elected State Reporter for this year. Some of the outstanding activities under- taken by the chapter this year were a class ride, a sight seeing trip, grading the high school grounds, and a hundred percent fin- ish of projects. MGM.. LATIN CLUB NEWS The Latin students organized a club last fall with the following officers: President--Althea Millett. Vice President-Maxine Richardson. Secretary-Margaret Bradbury. Treasurer-Faunee Pendexter. This is the first year there has been a Latin Club in Norway High School. The name, 'fManus Latinae was chosen. One of the first things done was to choose a com- mittee to draw up the club laws, which are now in book form. There have been many very interesting meetings and programs held, one at the home of Miss Clark, who is the faculty adviser of the club, where everyone had a very enjoyable evening. Plans are now being made for a Latin Ban- quet, which is to be in charge of the Sopho- more girls. One thing of particular importance has been accomplished this year. The club members chose an editorial board for the purpose of publishing a club paper. Those designated were: Edito1--in-Chief4Maxine Richardson. Assistant Editor-Althea. Millett. Printer-Faunce Pendexter. Assistant Printer-Burnelle Burnell. Jokes EditorvElizabeth Ariel. Reporter-4Margaretl Bradbury. This paper proved to be a great success. The club is indebted to the Commercial De- partment, for without its cooperation it would have been impossible to have pub- lished the paper without great expense. The Commercial Department members typed the copies for the hectograph. The first issue was dedicated to Miss Clark. Members of the club feel that a lot has been accomplished for the first year and all have plans for next year. 32 THE CADUCEUS Glee Club The Glee Club this year has an enroll- ment of twenty-two. The members of last year's club were eligible without tryouts. The officers were elected as follows: President-Faye Lord. Secretary-Althea Millett.

On April 22, the Glee Club and Orches- tra are to have charge of an assembly. Plans are under way for the event. This promises to be very interesting and enter- taining. To be a member of the Glee Club, one cannot miss three rehearsals in succession without a good excuse. The members of the Glee Club are: Faye Lord, Marjorie Judkins, Gwendolyn Bicknell, Margaret Morrill, Bernice Shar- on, Ismay Aldrich, Beatrice Gallant, Laura Yates, Lillian Heikkinen, Maxine Richard- son, Margaret Michie, Rosina Sharon, Lucy Kimball, Althea Millett, Margaret Ander- son, Frances McAllister, Winifred Dun- ham, Elizabeth Noyes, Irene Freeman, Mu- riel Meader, Bertra Millett and Elizabeth Ariel.

This orchestra is composed of: Faunce Pendexter, piano, Elizabeth Ariel, Marion Judkins, Irene Freeman, Ruth Arey, Irene Tubbs, violins , George Sanborn, Ralph Ak- royd, cornets, Edwin Barker, Wilfred Con- ary. saxophones, Harlan Holman, Norman Arey, clarinets, Burnelle Burnell, drums. Miss Wood conducts the orchestra. To win a letter for orchestra, one must be present at eighty percent of the rehears- als and be in at least live public perform- ances. Some of the places where the orchestra has played are: County Teachers' Conven- tion, High School Fair entertainment, Glee Club minstrels, at the drama, Renting J immy' ', at the Woman 's Club Washington pI'0gram, at the Senior play, and at the W. C. T. U. program at Community Hall. The orchestra has played at all of the school socials and assemblies. It will also play for graduation and the Baccalaureate ser- vices. Much of the progress of the orchestra is due to the excellent training given by the director, Miss Wood. . V111 4. .V V V- Mgwtliszw- V V , V V. V .1 :':,:.:fa.-e-Vw: ,.

V V The Ho-nor Roll Tallest-The honors go to Walter Tru- man and Leona McAllister, while Robert Goodwin and Margaret Knightly come in close seconds. Then there are Viola Brown and Bernice Sharon, who are no dwarfs. Shortest-Bernard Hutchins and Ismay Aldrich are the 4'Tom Thumbs of the class. Gwendolyn Bicknell is not tall enough to brag about it. Most Studious-Urshal Gammon and Helen Flint carry off the laurels in this race,Vwhile Bernard Hutchins and Lena Pulkinen are not distanced by any means. Best Natured-Bob McCready takes the votes for the boys, while Lena Pulkinen and Helen Flint share the honors for the girls. Paul Brown, Faye Lord and Elsie Wheeler are not far behind the line. Best Dancer-Robert Goodwin far sur- passes the boys, while Faye Lord catches everyonc's eye when she steps on the floor. Biggest Vamp-Oneil Brown and Faye Lord are starred as the winners, with Bob McCready and Gwen Bicknell taking the next highest score. Class Sheik-The class speaks of itself in Elliott Hunt 's favor. Noisiest-Wherever Francis Wiles and Babe Trask are found there is sureyto be plenty of noise. Bob McCready and Bickie aren't classed among the quiet- est, either. Quietest-Did you ever know of Tom Tervo and Elsie Wheeler getting detention for being noisy? Then there are others who come in this class, including LaFrance, Abbott, Flint and V. Brown. Most Popular-As far as the boys are concerned, Robert Goodwin and Bob Mcf Cready take the cup, while Gwendolyn again scoops up the honors for the girls, with Lena Pulkinen a close second. Wittiest-The votes show that Francis Wiles and Bickie get the pie, but we arc all good when wit is wanted. Greatest Time Killer-When wasting time is on the list, Ben Scothorne and Mar- garet Morrill must be accepted as the win- ners. Leland Witham and Margaret Knightly come in for honorable mention. Greatest Woman Hater-Vile must all take off our hats to Franklin Abbott, for he sure does dislike them. Greatest Man Hater-Here Elsie Wheel- er is the winner, with Babe Trask coming in second place. Best Athletes-Bob McCready is our highest scorer, with Tom Tervo a jump be- hind, while Ina leads the girls, with Ismay Aldrich right in line. Greatest Help to N. H. S.-Norway High will miss us all, but Bernard Hutchins, Bob McCready and Robert Goodwin will surely leave quite a space in the list of participants in all kinds of school activities.

The team played their first game with Wiltoii on a wet field, which caused much fumbling and slipping. However, Norway gained fifty-five yards in their last five downs. Wiltoii wo11 with a score of 6-0. The boys journeyed to Bridgton to play a game there. This game turned out to be a practice game, with Norway winning over Bridgton High School, 46-0. The second real test of the team 's strength took place at the Fair Grounds, where they fought a hard game with South Paris. Neither team scored any points, making the score, 0-0. The Norway team experienced their sec- ond defeat of the season from Mexico. Mex- ico had an advantage over Norway in hav- ing a much larger and stronger team, and this was evidently the cause for a 6-0 score in favor of Mexico. Some very ine work was displayed by the Norway team in their game with Wiri- throp. The opposing team was weak, and proved to be an easy victim for the Norway men. Norway consequently won an easy victory with a score of48-0. In a return game with Paris, the Nor- way boys fought hard until the final whis- tle, but seemingly to no avail. The Paris team put up a strong opposition, which proved unbreakable. The Paris team came out on top with a 25-0 victory. The total number of points scored by Norway was 101, while their opponents to- taled 37. The following men worked hard and earned their letters: A. McCready, E. Scothorne, N. Jackson, Cordwell, Hall, H. McCready, L. Witham, P. French, Saleeby, Morse, T. Tervo, L. Yeaton, R. Frost, Bach- elder. 0...- BASKET BALL In the first game of the season with the Alumni on December 4, the opposing team proved to be easy victims to our strong Nor- way team. This game resulted in a score of 25-12 for Norway. , The second real test of the season came on December '11, when Oxford came to Nor- way, evidently intent upon an easy victory. Before the game ended, they found they were mistaken, and this game resulted in a 34-25 score for Norway. A return game at Oxford netted the Norway boys another vic- tory to the tune of 25-22. When the Norway boys made their first trip to Gould Academy, they were destined to come home defeated, after a long and hard battle with a strong opposition. Gould proved to be the victors with a score of 21- 19.

This game resulted in a score of 36-21 for Nor- way. Bridgton suffered a defeat at the hands of the Norway boys, on January 15. Brown again scored the most points. Norway be- came the victor with a score of 27-20. One of the most interesting games of the season occurred on January 22, when the South Paris team arrived at the Norway Gym, evidently intent upon a victory. Hall scored the most points for Norway, and helped to get a score of 38-17 for the home team. Mechanic Falls came up here for a re- turn game, and met with defeat again. Goodwin scored most of Norway's points, although teamwork and cooperation proved to be of the utmost value. The score was 35-21, and another. victory for Norway. Gould Academy made a trip to Norway on February 16, and were well paid for the previous defeat suffered at their hands. Although the game was won by a small mar- gin, a miss is as good as a mile. The game resulted in a score of 24-23 for Norway. ' Norway visited South Paris in the last regular game of the season, which occurred on February 26. Hall scored most of Nor- way's points and helped to bring in anoth- er victory for Norway with a score of 35-30. The record of the team easily won them recognition by those choosing teams for Small School Tournament held in Lewiston, March 4 and 5 under the auspices of Lew- iston High School. img., THE TOURNAMENT In the first game against Boothbay the boys did fine work, with Hall starring. Goodwin and Smith also did some outstand- ing work. Frost and Tervo successfully broke up a strong opposition. This first game resulted in a score of 38-19 for Nor- way. Encouraged by their first victory, Nor- way opposed Gorham in their second game, full of fight. They kept up this good work until the end of the first half 5 but dropped behind somewhat in the last half. Hall and Smith starred, with Jackson and Goodwin playing a good defense. Frost also did fine work. Norway entered the last game of the tour- nament with a lot of pep, and were very much encouraged by the support from the sidelines. They won over Standish by a small margin. A fine display of team-work and cooperation made this game a success. VVith an eye on the beautiful trophy, as well as the individual medals, the boys fought a hard and long game against a strong op- position. All members of the team dis- played fine spirit. Frost, Smith, and Hall did wonderful work in breaking up the op- position, while Jackson 's sensational shot decided the game in favor of Norway. Nor- way has reason to be proud of its basketmen this season, and much credit should be given to Coach James Cole for his fine work with the team. 110.1 WINTER SPORTS The team this year, under the direction of Coach Guy Rowe, experienced a success- ful season. There were five men out, and all received letters. They were W. Brown, L. Gatley, O. Scribner, L. Yeaton, and F. White. The outstanding event of the season was the trip to North Waterford, where the team won the trophy. They won first place at South Paris, third place at Harrison, fourth place at Rumford, and fourth place at Bridgton. ..,0.T GIRLS' VARSITY BASKET BALL The first of the season presented Miss Winslow with a large squad of likely look- ing candidates. Possibly that was the dif- l 40 THE CADUCEUS' ficulty-they were all too promising. As the season progressed, the material develop- ed proportionally and mid-season offered as serious a problem of selecting a super-team as did the first game of the schedule. Although the situation produced many losses and few wins for the team, it was not without its benefits. More girls, because of this very fact, were given a chance to show their colors and Miss VVinslow may be cou- gratulated for turning out a team of good losers and good sportswomen. These are qualities which will last long after a few basketball scores are forgotten. Sometimes it is only through failures that we really appreciate success. Victory will be all the pleasanter next year and from the promising group of undergraduates we can count on things happening. The girls being awarded letters this year are: 1. Aldrich, G. Bicknell, P. Blaquiere, M. Bradbury, L. Emerson, B. Gallant, L. Heikkinen, M. Hill, A. Hunt and D. Pratt. Through the kindness of Mrs. Aldrich, the team and coach were given a supper in commemoration of the seasonls work. The games were played as follows: Dec. ll, Alumi 335 Norway 212. Dec. 18, Bridgton 413 Norway 30. Dee. 25, Oxford 62, Norway 27. Jan. 8, Mechanic Falls 36, Norway 20. Jan. 15, Bridgton 46, Norway 20. Jan. 22, Paris 29, Norway 27. Jan. 29, West Paris 435 Norway 40.

Those on the senior team were 1. Aldrich, G. Bicknell, V. Brown, F. Lord, M. Morrill, 1. Tervo and G. Trask. The results of the inter-class games were as follows: Seniors 30, Sophomores 32. Juniors 17 Sophomores 24. Seniors 29 Juniors 21. Juniors 41 Sophomores 26. Seniors 33, Soplhomores 28. Seniors 36, Juniors 20. GIRLS' ARCHERY There was an inter-class meet last Octo- ber, and quite a few girls competed. The two highest scores went to: first, Margaret Hill, second, Ismay Aldrich. The class representatives included M. Hill, 1. Aldrich, M. Bradbury, A. Perry, B. Gallant, P. Ripley and L. Emerson. Norway High School hopes to make this an interscholastic sport. It requires a keen eye, a steady hand, and a judge of distance. It develops arms, shoulders, and back. Every girl should participate in some form of athletics. To be sure, the same sport does not appeal to all people, but now we have variety enough to satisfy all tastes and needs. Come on girls, find your places! .,.-.01 GIRLS' TRACK A dual meet with Paris was held prelim- inary to the county meet. Norway took third place in the County Meet at Mexico. The meet took place on a Saturday, but on- ly half of the events were run off, due to an extremely bad storm. The team went back the following Monday, and brought the score up from 4th place to 3rd place Places won by Norway were as follows: 1st place in baseball throw-Margaret Bradbury. 2nd place in basket ball throw-Gwenevieve Trask. 3rd place in potato race-Faye Lord. . 3rd place in broad jump-Alma. Dunn. There was only a small group out, but they concentrated well on the work, and on- ly lost one, Alma Dunn, through gradua- tion. Norway looked somewhat like a patch- work quilt, beside the regular uniforms of other schools, but the team found recogni- tion just the same. Letters were awarded to four participants. No managers letter was awarded. Gwendolyn Bicknell is this year's manager. The meet, this year, is to be held at South Paris. - 'N BOYS' BASKET BALL Back Row: Coach James Cole, Nolan Jackson, Robert Goodwin, Robert Frost, Ernest Lafrance, Man, Front Row: Freeman Hall, Thomas Tervo, Paul Brown, George Smith, George Cordwell, Philip Saleeby. l .

Its eyes roamed listlessly over the sleeping town, and finally came to rest on an old house with one solitary light shining from the window. After the clock had seen this light and peered inside, it saw a man of about fifty-five working over some retorts and test tubes, books and formulas. On the corner of Ash and Bean streets, lived Mr. Durkin, commonly called 'tPro- fessor by his few friends. He was known for his experiments and his queer actions. Tonight, as he had done many nights, he was working silently in his laboratory. The laboratory, a room on the east side of the house, was dingy, admitting little light, even in the day time. It was littered with bottles and tubes, but a bench was clear, and there sat 'tProfessor Durkin studying carefully the action of one com- pound recently mixed with another. In his hand was a vial of brownish Huid. Suddenly he added some of this fluid to the mixture. A dull noise was heard. Then the compound burned, forming a blue smoke, which hung over the room. '4Pro- fessor ' ' Durkin quickly set up an apparatus and, after he had caught a certain amount, threw the retort into boiling water. Then he took pencil and paper, wrote his experi- ments, carefully packed the bottles of gas in an especially prepared container, and set them down. Exhausted with his work he sat down and was soon asleep. He did not wake until late next morning, but, as soon as he was awake, he took the box, wrote HBelleau Hospital, New York on the package and set out for the post office, mailed and in- sured his precious parcel, as he had hun- dreds before, and set his way home again. Three weeks later the Professor was taken ill and on the same day he received a letter. A neighbor, who was taking care of him, read the letter. The first lines were thus, It cured the disease. Congratula- tions! Professor. The first cure has come to save millions of lives,-. The neigh- bor stopped to look at the wonderful old man. He had been called, but he had heard that he had not striven in vain. 'tPro- fessor Durkin was laid away reverently by his fellownien, and a stone tells of his wonderful exploits. The village clock chimed three. It did not look up, for it knew no lights were lit 3 but it did know, and reverenced the fact, that a great inan had given his life to help save humanity! -Dow,'33. JUNIOR HIGH SCHOGL SECTION lgnl SCHOOL SPIRIT lt's easy enough to be pleasant When the world goes by like a song, But the man worthwhile is the man Who can smile VVIICH everything goes dead wrongfl It is easy to be loyal when things go along smoothly 5 but when things go wrong, that, is the time to show your school spirit 5 that is the time to prove to your school and your- self just what your school means to you. Wlien we are playing or cheering for the defeated team, keep the same school spirit with us as we have when we are winning. Be a good losere-a good sport. Stand by through thick and thin-that's spirit. Take an interest in all school activities by joining in, showing interest, and work- ing. In this way you are showing your re- spect and loyalty-you are doing your part to make your junior high school one of the best junior high schools. Anyone can stand by when everything is favorable, but the real test of school spir- it is defeat. Think before you criticize next time! Have you done your part? Are you show- ing a real 'KNorway Junior Highl' spirit? -Eleanor Aldrich. AWI Awi was born on the back of Gilstead Mountain, where on calm days, the Swish and roar of Snake River could be heard as it poured headlong through narrow pas- sages, foamed over turbulent rapids, and finally slid over Cheeka Falls to the gently sloping valley below. He was not like oth- er fawns, but frail and small, yes, terribly small. And this was not all--Awi was pure white! He struggled with death for days, but finally with the aid of his mother's warm, rich milk, he slowly gained strength, and soon the day came when he could follow his mother on his tottering legs to the river. Wliat Awi lacked in size, he more than made up in intelligence and iieetness. He quickly learned all that his mother taught him-men, dogs, and guns, not to mention numerous other natural enemies. The years flew by and found Awi, still white, iieeter than ever, which seemed more st.range because of his small body. He easi- ly outran all the dogs and fooled all the hunters for miles around. Then- Jim Harris and Old John, the Indian hunter and trapper sat before the fire in the latter ls cabin, talking. The subject of the THE CADUCEUS- 47 conversation was Awi. Harris had seen him, a fleeting glimpse of white, on the mountain-side that day. They were both possessed with an insatiable desire to secure this Hmuch lucky animal. Your rifle would never miss as long as you had a cer- tain charm in your pocket, the tip of the antlers of a white buck. Old John was the superstitious party, but Jim wanted to be able to boast of his exploit to future gener- ations. As none of the dogs around the-re were swift enugh, Jim was making plans for borrowing his friend 's four deer- hounds, who were reputed to be the swiftest in that part of the country. In due time, the dogs arrived and were to be put to scent the next day. They had hardly started up the moun- tain-side, when the dogs struck a hot scent. Further up the incline, Awi vanished into the underbrush. The chase was long, swift and hard. Awi could run many miles with- out tiring, but these dogs were proving too much for even him. He must play his trump card. He headed down for Snake River. Half an hour later, two tired men came upon the baffled hounds running confusedly in circles at the foot of a half-fallen tree that hung out over the water. The river in this place was turbulently running between two ledges of rock to emerge into a deep basin in frightful currents and whirl-pools. Thirty feet below the river went over the falls. - t'He could never have gone down the river, said Old John, it7s out of the question. He could never stop from go- ing over the falls. Jim Harris agreed, and added, But I'll get him, if it 's the last sane thing I do. They were puzzled in this manner three times, then Jim had a hunch. The dogs were set on the trail of Awi for the fifth time, but instead of following them, Jim struck out toward the river. Follow mef' he said to the Indian. Old John was wise. He made no protest. They went to a ford some distance above the falls and crossed the river there. The Indian looked puzzled, but said nothing. Harris walked rapidly down the other side of the stream and soon cautiously hid him- self among the rocks, motioning Old John to do the same. Their position was such that they could see up the river between the ledges and across the basin to a sand bar on the further extremity of the river. The baying of the hounds sounded faintly above the roar of the river. The baying stopped abruptly. 'tWatcli now! whispered Jim, tensely. A minute elapsed. The Indian gasped. The beautiful, antlered head of Awi floated down the river in a narrow channel between the two ledges. He'll try to land on the sand-bar,'l breathed Jim, don't shoot 'till he gets there. You shoot firstfl Awi had now reached the basin. Both men fully expected to see him sucked in by the whirl-pool, but no 5 helped by some strange cross-current, he half-swam, half- floated towards the sand-bar. He climbed out and stood on the sand listening. As Old John raised his rifle, his hands trembled with excitement. Here was the prize of his life within his grasp. Crack l Awi staggered and measured his length on the sand. To reach the side of the river where their prize lay, the Indian and Jim had to make a detour of about two miles. Wlien they reached the sand-bar, they stopped in amazement. Awi was gone! Both gazed stupidly around for a few seconds, then Jim stepped forward and picked up some- thing. He handed the Indian the tip of an antler. This is yours, he said, H your bullet must have hit his antler, broken a piece off, and stunned him. By the time we got here 48 THE he had 'come to' and left, but as far as I'm concerned, helll never be troubled again. He has earned his life, and no one deserves 't th . h . 1 more an 6 -John Roberts. locnl REALITIES OF FIGURES One warm day in late September I was sitting at my desk, my head buried behind an arithmetic book, trying to do some prob- lems concerning trapezoids, right angles, squares and circles, of which I knew noth- ing. The drone of somebody behind me re- citing his lessons in a muffled tone and the buzz of whispering pupils around the room made me feel rather sleepy. Suddenly I was awakened from my day- dreaming by a noisy clamor. Looking up I was much surprised to see ten tiny men standing before me. They were about the size of dolls. Each wore very bright suits of red, green, orange, and blue. A saucy little hat was perched on each head and tiny sandals covered their slender feet. After recovering from my surprise, I no- ticed that each wore a brightly colored let- ter on the front of his trim little suit. The first little fellow wore A, the second R, third I, and so on. t'Why!'l I gasped, A-R-I-T-H- These letters spell 'Arithme- tic'. Dear me! How I hated that word. One, who was a bit larger than the others, appeared to be the leader. He wore the large letter A on his bright red suit, which wa.s trimmed with shiny green buttons down the front. A yellow cap with a large red tassel was comically perched on his lit- tle head. On his feet were tiny green san- dals, trimmed with scarlet buckles and be- hind one ear was an enormous pencil. He gingerly carried a bright red ruler in his right hand, which served as a baton. You may be sure, his little friends presented a very striking appearance also. As he raised his shining baton, the other little brownies, joining hands, danced around me, singing a lively tune about CADUCEUS people who didn't like arithmetic and Hguresw. Suddenly, at the leader's sig- nal, the tiny men stopped and gathered closely around my desk. My! My! The leader was pointing his Enger at me and speaking. We are the immortals who live inside your arithmetic book, he began. HWithout us, life wouldn't be very success- ful for you. With these words he sum- moned each to continue his part. Then each little brownie came forth and force- fully told me something about the import- ance of arithmetic in one 's life until I began to think that a.rithmetic books and I were the very best of friends. After each had tak- en his turn he stepped back into his organ- ized place. Once more the group took up its dance and sang with the leader directing them, until my head began to whirl. Then I noticed their forms growing dimmer and the music fainter until they soon vanished from sight! Where? I knew not. I was just wondering what had become of my entertainers when I heard a voice beside me. Looking up I gazed into the eyes of my arithmetic teacher. I was se- verely criticized for having accomplished so little work. Consequently I fell to work with a will. My work was soon completed and lying on the teacher's desk. How does it happen, she questioned, looking over my paper, Hthat you have done so many problems correctly in the last few minutes? This is unusual for you. HI don't know,', I shyly answered. But I did know-my little friends-they were the secret. -Eloise Gammon. lgl FAIRIES I know a place where the fairies stay, By a crystal fountain where the nighitingalc sings. They flit down the moonbeanis to dance and play In gowns made of rainbows and soft silver wings. They drink of the fountain that murmurs so low And dance gaily about 'till the break of day. Then back to the silvery moon they go, Back to the moon to stay. -Lona Hunton. THE CADUCEUS 49 AN AMBITION I'd like to be an aviator, and Hy and spin around, Be different from the common folk, away down on the ground. I'd like to learn to fly, and circle in the sky And maybe -break a record, for flying very high. I'd like to show some fellow' That Ilm not the one that 's yellow, Ild spin my plane 'till I biroke its prop , Then I'd glide to earth and safely stop. II Oh! I wish I were an aviator, I'd show them how to fly . . If anyone wished to know where I was, just tell them 'fup in the sky. ,.0 THE DIFFERENT TREE Away, beyond the farmhouse Is a diifcrcnt kind of tree Its trunk is old and large! and bent, I feel it stare at me. The road was going on and on To reach another place But still that tree did stare at me And yet it had no face. -Margaret Sheehy.
