79 014 J-H95 l20l LZI2 How anxious we all are for the first game on our own lighted field. The band practices for days getting into its best marching formation, cheer leaders coach the Freshies for entrance into the All-Student Root- ers Clubg Hi-Y boys and Girl Reserves order eatsg blankets are pulled out of moth ballsg and the classes start off with a round of cheers. Ticket takers and policemen are on the job early, too early for some small boys, who are searching for the narrowest point in Dane Creek. Next on the scene are the hog-dog and candy salesmen hustling about to get their stands ready. Soon the band members in their snappy red and white uniforms come stepping across the footbridge. No, they won't mind the cold for those uniforms cover layers of warm underclothing. Now the crowd starts coming across the bridge and through the auto drive. Soon the Ord fans are located on the bleachers and the visitors lined up on the opposite side. The electricians tinker with the lightsj Bud bustles here and there, ever important and watchfulg Wilma, Charlotte, and Harold take their stand in front of the cheering section. The kick-off! The fight is on! The rooters rush first to one end of the field and then to the other, offering expert advice. Tense moments! Cheers! Groans! Now and then time-out gives the spectator a chance to realize his feet are numb. He stamps about a bit, or huddles closer in his blanket and gets ready to 'fhold that line. The half is over and the score is six to nothing in Ord's favor. Let's have a hot-dog and a cup of coffee. No, we can't go now for the band is coming on the field. Such a band! Snap and pep itself, from the director to the uniforms. We mustn't miss it. Now for that hot-dog! All gone? Well, a candy bar will do. Settled just in time. What a game! Ord scored against? No, that can't be! Yes? Never mind! We'll soon break that tie. . Say, are those my feet or cakes of ice? Who cares? Ord must get another touchdown! How much more time? Oh ------ see him go! Boy, a touchdown! A touchdown! Another good game over. Now the grand rush for the footbridge and the parketl cars.

November 15-The most exciting game of the season. Well-matched teams, and a 0-0 score. What a game! But Arcadia, you didn't score against us, even if you did hold us. We aren't defeated yet.
