Through its steady guidance Morton has grown to be one of the outstanding schools of indiana. It selects our teachers, takes care of all the build- ings, and keeps a constant watch to see that Morton and all other schools in Richmond are managed in the best manner. The student body some- times forgets that there is a school board, and many students do not know how much they do for us. The staff takes this opportunity to introduce to you, fellow students, the school hoard members: also to thank them for all their efforts and hard work to make Morton a school of which We are justly proud. 1 Page eight E135 Q.-r-I-r,: l ., LIZT-1-,. ir rL'i-JJ 1 9 - t is Q t uv: 5 . mme Qmtvnttnnn fur Mrahuaten UW that you are through high school. what of it?

Ah, there you have the worst paid, and the best rewarded, of all the vocations. Dare not to enter it unless you love it. For the vast majority of men and women it has no promise of wealth or fame, but they, to whom it is dear for its own sake, are among the nobility of mankind. I sing the praise of the unknown teacher. Great generals win campaigns, but it is the unknown soldier who wins the war. ' Famous educators plan new systems of pedagogy, but it is the un- known teacher who delivers and guides the young. He lives in ob- scurity and contends with hardship. For him no trumpets blare, no chariots wait, no golden decorations are decreed. He keeps the watch along the borders of darkness and makes the attack on the trenches of ignorance and folly. Patient in his daily duty, he strives to con- quer the evil powers which are the enemies of youth. Ile awakens sleeping spirits. He quickens the indolent, encourages the eager, and steadies the unstable. He communicates his own joy in learning, and shares with boys and girls the best treasures of his mind. He lights many candles which, in later years, will shine back to cheer him. This is his reward. Knowledge may be gained from booksg but the love of knowledge is transmitted only by personal contact. No one has deserved better of the republic than the unknown teacher. No one is more worthy to be enrolled in a democratic aristocracy, king of himself and servant of mankind.

VER since I can remember, and doubtless long before, the over-confidence of youth has been one of the favorite subjects of the middle-aged, a matter to be laughed about or growled over accord- ing to the nature or the mood of the speaker. That very confident and fearless youth does exist. VVe all know him. He does not need my motto. llut it seems to me that most young people, in their early contacts with the world and the job, suffer rather from lack of self -confidence than from ANNA BRADBURY excess of it. It is they who may be helped by re- membering what the ancient Greek we call Homer knew long ago. He had not heard of fear complexes and he was not talking to high school seniors. llut he had poetic insight and he lived in what we now call the youth of our civilization. He knew that fearlessness wins half the battle. lf you have learned at Horton that there is something that you can do better than the rest of ns, keep right on doing things as much like it as possible. You will find you can still excel at them. Try to give real service, to be happy about it, and above all to do it without fear. Miss IZIRADBURY.

'TF Srhnnl Qlmmril liI,lli'x'lXli that government hy the students, for the stu- dents. and of the students was the proper form of govern- ment for Morton lligh School, a governing body, for that ex- press purpose, some years ago was organized. The lmody became known as the School Council, and has existed ever since. Although no criminal code or set of written laws has ever been made hy this group, it has served one fundamental pur- pose: that is, it has acted as the voice of the student body and as the voice of the faculty. Composed as it is, of the leaders in the school, and sponsored hy the principal, its authority on all questions is accepted. The projects for this year were: sponsoring assembly pro- grams, awarding letters, adopting the new report cards, and making a linancial budget for 1927-ZS. Page forty-two FT' C t is rsmssyt W i 1' Ihr illarultg sinh Sftuhvni managers NY business that is to be successful must be properly man- aged. The success of Morton's activities, which are Mor- ton's business, depends largely upon their managers. They must be efficient, willing workers, continually giving more than they can possibly hope to receive, working that we may enjoy the pleasure that these organizations afford us. Like all other business, these activities are not easily man- aged. There is a high tide and a low tide, and, that all may be successful, the greatest care must be taken in the appropriation and budgeting of the general proceeds. llecause of its many merits, school authorities are recog- nizing more and more this system of student and faculty man- agement, and are realizing that many good executives are being developed by it. mum - F,-'3 's' 1 h - ,L-31 Page forty-three 1- I -1 V . . ---f i . . - 1 Y.

Une might add that it has the power to precipitate one into any mood in the gaiuut of human feelings. liecause of this power it has become established in a permanent place in our school life to raise us above the plane of the ordinary to those heights to which only good music can elevate one. Our school spirit finds expression in the school song as it can in no other place or way, and so the emotions which affect us in life can be expressed best in music. Much of the success music has attained in Morton is undoubtedly due to the excellent guidance and direction of the men who have headed the music department in our school. Our debt to them extends beyond monetary values. and so we have hoped that by dedicating to them this annual we might in some degree express to them our gratitude. The results of their efforts stand before and within us as a lasting monument to their wonderful work. Richmond has for many years been recognized as an art and musical een' ter of some little importance, so it seems only natural that these forces shoulfl rind expression in our schools. Our orchestra has attained a nation-wide reputa tion while the band follows close behind. The vocal organizations which have recently been re-established took an instant and firm hold in the schools and face a future which promises much. . . Page forty-four ' te EQEESi ef THIS HANIJ The concerts given by the orchestra are well patronizecl by the stuclents ancl the music-loving public. while the bancl is, perhaps. best known for its work at the athletic contests ancl its serenacles. The glee clubs assist at the orchestra concerts anrl are always greatly appreciated by the listeners. Yarious organi- zations anrl institutions of the city have always founcl the musicians of Morton more than willing to lencl their efforts for the benefit of a worthy cause. This. probably 1nore than any other reason. has contributecl to their popularity. The Il Urchestra is the largest seconclary orchestra Klorton has ever hacl. Nlr. lloson has made it very interesting by shifting the players to various places, ancl by incliviclual playing each meeting. Students must play in this orchestra before entering orchestra. This year the orchestra which consistecl of soph- omores only, nuniberecl approximately forty. The Orchestra, uncler the careful clirectorship of Mr. lloson, completeil a very successful season. featuring local musicians as soloists for the concerts. The soloists were: Kliss XYillman, pianistg Professor llarlowe Dean, of liarlham College, bass: l.loycl Uutlanrl, violinistg Ruth Roland. cellistg ancl .Xrthur fiault, oboist. The concert given with the bancl was also interesting anrl successful. The orchestra is one of the peppiest organizations of the school ancl seems to have a goocl social time every school year. livery fall the orchestra members look forward to a hayrirle. which has been the autumn event of the orchestra for many years past.

The members had a big supper at the lioot of the Hill lnn during the winter season, which was talked about for some time afterwards. lfveryone thoroughly enjoyed himself at the annual banquet which was held at the end of the school year to say farewell to the seniors. The Morton lligh School lland, under the direction of Coach Little, has been kept very busy this year. The band is approximately the largest band the school has had for a number of years. consisting of about forty members. lt has contributed a great deal. in fact, more than any other organization, to school and city activities. Ythenevcr asked to assist in putting over a program, Mr. Little was always ready and willing to do his part. The band was enlarged by the arrival of many good players from Test and Dennis. l'ep was put into the Charity lfair with the help of the band. They played in the Armistice llay l'arade, and at the dedication of the new llibberd building. They were our never-failing boosters at all the football and basketball games: they played at six assemblies, at the lllay lfestival, and gave two special assembly programs, the feature of one being the school's favorite, Pop Goes the Weasel. The band gave one evening concert on March 25. assisted by the orchestra, which proved to be a huge success. The band library has been augmented by the addition of twelve new num- bers which make a very complete repertoire. Many players have been playing in the city band. Norton, indeed, has many reasons to be proud of its band. t Page forty-six -1' T' - g -s - r- 1 ' 2 - . f -T -1 - - 1 g- 'v 7' I r g -'I Y A --' : Y -I Y j' -,-1- -+' f r E 9 27 E N. 5 r21J.'f.i':-ha - ' , 'llvg GIRLS' Gl.l-IIC CLUB One of the popular organizations of the school the past year has been the Glee Club. lloth the boys' and girls' clubs have been active in school affairs.

Their friend, Rex Yan Zile, possesses H rather hopeless infatuation for Myrtle lhavis, a society philanthropist who is eternally saving lost souls from destruction. L'nfortunately. Rex's soul is in such perfect condition that Myrtle refuses to he interested. Polly suggests that Rex do something' really wicked, such as becoming engaged to a notorious woman.

OOKING back over the past school year and recounting the many and varied difficulties, fears, and disappointments that inevitably beset an annual staff, it is plain to be seen that any success or approval this book may meet will be due largely to the efforts of two members of the staff. NVe cannot too highly recommend to your praise the work of Clarissa Ahl, ever willing to carry more than her share of work and responsibility, and Myrl Homan, who proved a veritable tower of strength and a marvel of efficiency in the business department. Then too there are others whose work warrants your notice. Among these are Esther Armacost. whose masterly penwork will be easily recognized in the prophecy: Myron Wiinder. from whose pen we have the art work contained in this bookg and Ellen Kluter, whose work in the snapshot section is of the high- est quality. XYe cannot thank Miss lfinfrock enough for her assistance. Ever ready with solutions for our difficulties. with encouragement when most needed, and urging us on when we lagged, she has been a priceless help to the staff. - ,.-- ,-g- Gi'III'1'al .lIlIlIiIff1'l'.. lfditnz' . ...... .. .4.v.mI'iI1fr Editor ..

Lvllilttl' the splendid leadership of Mr. Neff and Mr. L. E. llarter, who although in no way connected with the school is deeply interested in its students, the problems are discussed that are of vital interest to anyone who has a desire to be successful. More and more are the men of today realizing that the high school boy of today will be the man of tomorrow. Too much credit cannot be given to these earnest and sincere men who are Willing to take their own time and money to help us boys-the hope of the future-to be successful. 1832 2 ?'

Long wars were waged, with many fierce battles. At times there was peace between the two cities. For over one hundred years the confiict was on, either actual war, trade war, or attempts at conquest and control of other peoples. Some of the far-seeing ones in Rome realized that, sooner or later. one of the two cities would have to bow to the other. The great majority of Romans, however, saw no danger from Carthage, and were content to go on as usual, with no thought of danger or trouble from the neighbors across the Mediterranean. One incident has come to our notice that may have had a great deal of influ- ence in determining the winner of this extended contest. In the Roman senate was Cato, the elder, a man who felt that Rome was asleep, allowing Carthage to capture Roman trade, and establish colonies which would be a menace to the Empire. He frequently made speeches in the senate, on various subjects relating to the government of the empire, but no matter what the subject, he ended with the phrase, dclendzz est Carthago,- Carthage must be destroyed. In this way, he kept the thought of Carthage and her danger to Rome constantly before the leaders of the people. Finally in the third Punic war, Rome conquered Carthage, destroyed the city, and plowed the ground where once the city stood, so that none might know where it was located. lt would be hard to estimate the influence of Cato's reference to Carthage, in causing Rome to put forth her best efforts to destroy her, but without a doubt, it had some effect. We of Morton High School have our problems and, like the old Romans, fail to realize the future effect of present conditions. We become used to adverse conditions and submit without a whimper. We soon accept what we have, as being the best obtainable. Our high school is in desperate need of an athletic field and a good gym- nasium. We use the Coliseum for basketball and brag on the fine floor we have -when other people will let us use it. NVe are proud of the fine football and track facilities at Earlham College,-we use them when Earlham does not need them. Our baseball field is exceptionally good, we are permitted to use it until 5 o'clock, then retire for the local league games. Yes, we have a field. It is located fifteen squares from the high school building. We use it once in a while. We practice football there when we have no other place. True, there is no sod, level ground, goal posts, or conveniences. The site is entirely undeveloped. Our former field was taken for the Test junior High School Eve years ago. VVithout a good gymnasium or athletic field, how can we expect the younger boys of Richmond to learn the games played in high school? How can we develop our athletes without a place to do it? It is the urgent duty of every Morton Senior and undergraduate to emulate Cato, the old Roman, and, whenever an opportunity presents itself, call attention to our helpless condition, athletically. Unlike him, though, we will be asking for constructive action. Our motto can be, A gymnasium and athletic field for Morton must be built. TTAROLD M.

Qi 1 1 5-755- Elinntlmll iKPm1m15 HE 1926 Red Devil football team enjoyed one of the most successful seasons in several years, and, although defeated by Muncie, Marion, and Shortridge, they won six of their nine games. Early season practice started at the 'Y football camp and continued, after the camp period was over, until school began. With the opening of school and the starting of regular practice sessions, a wealth of material turned out to try for the varsity. Although both the remaining letter me11 and the new material were unusually light, Coach Little developed a fast and smart team for the first game of the season. The opening game for the Red Devils was with the Elwood eleven, who had already played a game with Kokomo. In spite of the advantage of their experience, the Elwood men were defeated by a score of 7 to 6. The game was played on the Elwood Held, under a blistering sun, and both teams made their scores in the third quarter. Morton's touchdown followed a thirty-five yard pass, john Evans to Pat Corsi, and Bonds place kick added the extra point. The following week, the Middletown squad came to Richmond with a firm resolve to hand the Devils a defeat after the tie game played at Middletown last season. The game was not played, however, as rain in the early morning Hooded the field and the game had to be cancelled. Morton went north to meet the Portland players the following week. Neither team scored during the first half, but both Mustard and Bond crossed the Portland goal line in the third quarter. Both trials for points were made, and the Mortonites journeyed home with a 14 to 0 victory. About two hundred Morton fans and backers followed the team to this game. The fourth game of the season was lost to the Blue and White of Shortridge at the capital city. The scores 6 and 2 were both marked up in the first five or six minutes of play. Morton received the opening kick-off, and on their second play fumbled the ball, which was picked up by the Shortridge center, who ran thirty-Eve yards for a touchdown. The try for point was blocked, and Morton kicked off to the opponents. The Shortridge center received the ball and ran across his own goal line where he was downed by the Red Devils, Page sixty-nine nl I ' Q ' i,.'T T ' 2 ' ' 1,-r-f-Ag -' 'LHJ T ' A E te W rmisiag 2 7 who received two points for the touchback. Although the Mortonians were out-weighed by the Blue and White clad warriors, they twice brought the ball within scoring distance, but both times they lost the ball. In the first home game of the season, the Red Devils met the Wilkinson eleven, which had defeated them by a score of 7 to 6 last season. Revenge was sweet, and the score was 27 to 0 in favor of Morton. The game was played in a downpour of rain and on a Hooded Field. The Devils took advantage of the condition of the Field to slide right on when tackled, and their toboggan style touchdowns were the hit of the day with the spectators who braved the elements to see the game. Mustard scored two of Morton's touchdowns, while Bond and Evans contributed one each. The following week found the Newcastle Trojans in Richmond seeking revenge for their defeat of two years ago in which Mustard and Reeg figured so prominently. Their hopes were smashed, however, for Mustard ran. their ends and tackles for many yards in gains. The only touchdown was made by Mustard, and the extra point was added by Bond, making the score 7 to 0, Morton. The next game, in which Morton met Greenfield, was played in a sea of mud and water. Fumbles and inability to play in the mud slowed the game and accounted for the breaks. Mustard scored the Devils' first touchdown after Captain Weaver had carried the ball to the goal line, having recovered it on a Greenfield fumble. A few minutes later, Chuck recovered another fumble and carried the ball across the goal line for another touchdown after running seventy yards. Both attempts at the extra points failed, and the game ended with the score 12 to 0 in favor of Morton. The Mortonians played in hard luck on the trip to Marion, which took place a week after the Greenfield victory. Due to the failure of two busses in succession, the trip became an all night affair, and when the boys arrived in Marion, they were well worn out and lacked the traditional Red Devil pep and scrap. Each Devil put forth his best, but the better condition of the Giants told, and the game was lost by a score of 12 to 0. In their next game the Littlemen gave a wonderful exhibition of teamwork to beat Central of Fort Wayne by a score of 14 to 0. The line held the heavier opponents scoreless and opened holes in the opposing line through which the backfield swept with excellent interference for the two touchdowns. Both extra points were scored. Hard though the Red Devils fought, the last game of the season was lost to Muncie, Morton's traditional rival. The score, 17 to 0, does not, however, indicate what a good game it was. Morton's Red and White twice carried the ball within scoring range, but both times the ball was lost on dropped passes. In the first half the Bearcats could only come close enough to the Devil goal to score a field goal. Another heavy schedule has been arranged for the Morton eleven next year, and another good team is expected as eleven letter men will return. In fact, everything seems to point to another successful season. FOOTBALL SCHEDULE September 18 Morton .... . . . 7 Elwood ................., , , 6 September 25 Morton .... . . .

Johnny barked the signals for the pig-skin chasers. His place will be hard to fill next year. F INLEY BOND. Record: Three years at halfback, end, and quarterback. Fin's blond thatch bobbing through the opponents' line in one of his sensational quarterback sneaks is a sight which the Morton backers will be slow to forget. ROBERT STEGALL. Record: Two years at guard and tackle. Bob's ripping and smashing game at tackle will be a decided asset to the Red Devils again next year. TRACEY EVANS. Record: Three years at center and on line. Tracey held down the keystone position in great style during his senior year. DWIGHT YOUNG. Record: Three years at fullback and halfback. Spring-rabbit was all his nickname indicates, being a fleet and shifty fullback usually brought home the bacon when a few more yards were needed. LAWRENCE DAILEY. Record: One year in the backfield. Jed was the victim of hard luck during his sophomore and junior years, being back by sickness and a bad ankle: however, he came back with a vengeance this and earned his letter. DUANE IGLEMAN. Record: One year in the backfield. Dewey showed real ability in the gridiron line and will come back next year to up the good work. ORVAL BUCKNER. Record: One year at end. who helsl year keep Buck held down one of the wing positions for Morton this year and will, no doubt, be one of the mainstays of next year's squad. PAT CORSI. Record: Two years as backfield man and end. Pat could fill any position in the backfield or an end position any time. He will be with the Red Devils next year. CHARLES AVERY. Record: One year :at guard. Charlie was a new man to the gridiron game, but will probably play guard next fall. WALTER REYNARD. Record: One year as backfield man and end. Walt teamed with Buckner or Corsi at end. His work as halfback showed up well also. He has another year. EARNEST THOMAS. Record: One year as linesman. Earney played tackle as well as guard and has another year to play. THEODORE KIRKPATRICK. Record: One year at end. Ted was out half of the season with a bad knee and was able to play but a few games. He will be back next year. - ' ,i Page seventy-two .-.fu 5 on-vii i-13-B Q- . T 19 WEBB! 5? T ....:z.. Lflaakrihall illvnumif HE official call for basketball men to start practice for the coming season was issued several weeks before the football season had closed. About thirty candidates answered the call and started practicing in the high school gym. There were but two basketball letter men from the 1925-26 season, and a new team had to be built around these men. The opening game of the season was with the Centerville Bull Dogs, who won 30 to 25. The Devils took a three point lead the first half, but their defense cracked in the second half, and Tremps and Captain Tout scored the winning points for their team. Bobby Voss was the main scorer for Morton with 11 points. The following week Coach Little took charge of the first team, and with the football men reporting for practice, he had a large squad to work with. On Friday night of December third, the Red Devil team went to Portland where they won by a score of 36 to 16. Klotz and Voss were high point men for Morton, with nine points apieceg while Clampitt, Wiley, and Buckner each scored six points. The game was played on the high school stage, with the auditorium packed with Richmond and Portland fans. On the following evening the Red Devils lost to the Milroy five in a slow and uninteresting game. The score was 37 to 22 with Voss counting for ten of Mort0n's points. The following week the Littlemen were defeated by the Eaton players in a rough small- floor game at the Eaton Armory. The Morton-Liberty game, the following night, was won by Morton with eight Devils figuring in the scoring column. In two weeks three games were lost by the disorganized Devils. Injured players and inex- perienced substitutes made a poor showing against the better teams of the state. In a New Year's game with the Rushville Lions, the Mortonites made a good start for the new year, with a 35 to 25 victory. Wiley was the high point man for Morton with 12 points, while Voss was second with nine. Captain Klotz, Dailey, and Weaver all scored two field goals apiece in this game. Probably the best district team game during the season was with the Whitewater five, at the Coliseum. The green and white won by a three point lead, which they took in the closing minutes of the game. The team again went into a slump and lost four games straight. At Hamilton the Red Devils were unable to break the Black and White's defense on a long narrow Hoorg or to stop the long field shots of the Hamilton crew. Buckner and Wiley scored most for the Morton team. At Newcastle Wiley scored eleven points for Mortong while Voss and Buckner counted five and four respectively. The Trojans had a 22 to 7 point lead at the half, but almost lost the game when Morton made a come-back in the second half and almost won the game. Three time-outs on the Trojans part were needed before the Red Devils' offense was stopped. The Morton defense held, however, and Newcastle didn't score another field goal. The following night the Red Devils fell before the Bear Cats of Muncie, 47 to 24. In their first game at the 6th District Tourneya at Rushville, the Littlemen lost to the Lions by the score of 38 to 19. Klotz was out because of sickness, and the team didn't play up to their usual form. Lebanon came to Richmond January 28th expecting to carry home the bacon, but were left when the Morton five gave them the small end of a 37 to 30 score. Our fullback and Hoorguard, Dailey, stepped out in this game and collected 12 points, while Voss and Wiley scored eight and seven points respectively. The following week two more victories were marked up by the Littlemen. Friday night the Stoney Creek crew was defeated 30 to 21. Bobby Voss scored high in this game with 14 points, while Clampitt collected eight. At Elwood Saturday night, the Elwood high school team pulled the Frankfort stall style of playing, but were beaten at it by a 20 to 17 count. The score was 7 to 4, Elwood, at the end of the Hrst half, but the Devils tied the score and took a three point lead the second half. Snub Brooks and Chuck Weaver then gave the Elwood crowd a thrill, and they stalled the last few minutes of the game. ,g L -gui ... .-. iv. U - , 'x Page seventy-three 1 mmsyw 7 -ua-uu.s -21125213 M 'IIIF4 Upon returning from Elwood, Pete Wiley, who had been sick the night of the Stoney Creek game and also at Elwood, was taken home and quarantined with scarlet fever. This was the first hard knock that our black jinx gave the Red Devil team. Pete played floorguard the early part of the season and at forward his last four or five games. He proved to be a real scorer for the Littlemen and should prove a valuable man next spring. The next game for the Red and White was at the capital city with the Shortridge cagers, in their band-box gym, and four Devils figured in the scoring. The Hagerstown and Connersville games were cancelled because of the scarlet fever epidemic. .As a substitute for these two games, Morton journeyed to Milton where they met the high school five. The Milton team threw a terrible scare into the Morton boys and had a 29 to 24 point lead at the half. By the time the second half was under way, the Red Devils had become used to the stage gym, and started to score both foul and field goals rapidly. The score stood at 45-39, Morton, when the gun sounded. Klotz counted for 17 points and Voss 12. The last game of the schedule was played at the Stone City on the Bedford high school basketball floor. The Red Devils defense failed completely, and the Stone players had an easy time in running up the score. The stage was all set for the Sectional Tournament at Trueblood Field, the district was full of pep and couldn't wait for the play to start. But, the State Board of Health said it wasn't advisable to have the tournament at Richmond, because of the mentioned epidemic. The scene of action was changed to the Fountain City high school gym, and all Richmond and Morton backers were barred from the tournament. The Red Devils met Greensfork in their first game and won by a score of 37 to 20. Their second game with Liberty was a little closer, the score being 25 to 22. The third game was with Hagerstown, and an overtime was needed to put this crew out of the play. The fourth and final game was with the Green and White of Whitewater. 29 to 18, Whitewater. In the Regional Tourney Whitewater defeated Rushville in their first gameg but lost to Connersville, who went to the State. A The Morton basketball season was not such a success when it comes to games lost and won. Out of 24 games played, ten were won. The Red Devils scored 653 points, as com- pared with 781 points for their opponents. After all, Red Devils, it isn't how many points you scoredg but how you played.

Page seventy-nine tf mstsgr so Zilrark iKPm1m6 ITH the opening of the track season, Coach Little was forced to the task of building a track team around four or five members of last year's squad. After the Hrst call for candidates had been issued and indoor practice had started, Coach found several events the team was very weak in. He at once started to work personally through the boys in the school for prospective candidates to strengthen those weaknesses. As the date for the first meet drew near, practice was held outdoors at Reid Field, Earlham, whenever the weather permitted it, On the fifteenth of April a practice meet was held, with Morton, Newcastle, and Lynn participating. The Red Devils won this meet but showed weakness in different events. The following week Morton was defeated by Anderson in a triangular meet here. Rush- ville was the third team that competed. Eckenrode, Evans, and Oesting showed best for Morton in this meet. The Morton-Shortridge-Connersville meet scheduled for April 29 was cancelled because of rain. On May 6 the Red Devils journeyed to Muncie where they met the Bear Cats and the Union City team in a triangular meet. Muncie scored First, Morton second, and Union City third in this meet. Voss, Chenoweth, Evans, and Oesting scored the best for the Littlemen. At Rushville May 14, Morton tied with Connersville for high honor' of the Sectional Meet. Batesville, Shelbyville, Lawrenceburg, Rushville, and Liberty scored in order named. Eight Red Devils qualihed at the Sectional to 'participate in five events at the State Meet. The half mile relay team composed of Muckridge, lgleman, Voss, and Chenowethg Oesting in the half mile rung lgleman in the 220 yard low hurdles, Eckenrode in the 100 yard high hurdles, and Voss in the 100 yard dash, are the men that will represent Morton. As this goes to press, we think the Devils have a fair chance to place at the State and get in the scoring column.

Any can- didate wishing to try for the team reported at these practice sessions. After about a month of practice, the team was picked and met the Portland High School team. The Panther', racketers proved to be a well balanced team and defeated the Devil team. As this writing goes to press, meets are pending with Roose- velt of Dayton, Shortridge of Indianapolis, and with the Earl- ham College team. These meets will probably be held as soon as we are favored with better weather. The members of the Devil team are Captain Fred Foley, Guy Righter, Ralph Oesting, and Jesse Plummer. All of these players are seniors and will graduate from Morton this June. Page eighty-two fe Hwissgi 29 Swimming OR two years Morton entered a swimming team in the I. H. A. A. State Swimming Meet held at Columbus and sponsored by the Columbus High School. These teams were under the coaching of Leonard Mow, Y. M. C. A. physical director, and always made a good showing in these meets. There was a wealth of material in Morton for a swimming team this year and several meets could have been held with other high schoolsg but, because of the lack of necessary funds, this sport could not be sponsored. XVe hope this sport will be taken back on Morton's list of activities next year. for a State high school swimming champion- ship would be within our grasp. The local Y. M. C. A. swim- ming team has held the state championship title for four years, and most of the swimmers on this team are Morton students and could make up a Red Devil swimming team. if: C'- L Page eighty-three f' 1 -- '-'f - 2 - -v -r-1-if i 1 l 7'l 47 1 r-1 T - -r -. ri- -F Y' C i a mass? 2 Y intramural .7-Xthlrtirn OR a number of years, intramural athletics has been sponsored in Morton. lt has been the schoolls policy to encourage each and every boy to participate in some branch of athletics for his own pleas- ure and beneiit. With this in mind, various baseball, basketball, and track teams are organized each year. lleyond a doubt, the outstanding feature of this school year's intramural athletics program will be the track meet to be held at Reid Field on june 4. The system to be used in this meet will be a decided novelty. Each contestant will enter in a pentathlon, being permitted to choose his own events. The contestants will be divided into three classes: the first consisting of all entrants who have been in Morton for one or two semestersg the second class, consisting of all entrants who have been in Morton for three or four semesters, and the third class including all contestants who have been in Morton for more than four semesters. ln awarding points, each contestant will receive points corresponding to the position in which he finishes each event. The winner in each class will receive a gold medal, second place will receive a silver medal: third, fourth, and fifth places will be awarded bronze medals. To the contestant who of all three classes receives the least number of points will be awarded a statuette trophy and his name will be engraved on the permanent trophy cup. This track meet, according to plans, will be made an annual affair and is being taken up by the students with much vigor. The only eligibility rule is that each contestant must be an actual student of Morton at the time he participates in the meet. Varsity track men will not, however. be permitted to enter in their regular events. Page eighty-four i is 1 i212 missy Cfirla' 2-Xthlntira AST fall there was no director of physical education for Morton girls. Three Earlham girls came from the college after school three times a week to coach the girls interested in basketball. They had two teams which'played, using the two division rules instead of the three divisions as formerly. Maxine Canada and Elsa Peacock were captains of the teams. Sarah U'Mally acted as basketball manager. The Girls' Athletic Association has helped a great deal to promote interest in athletics among girls. The girls of this club have sponsored several hikes, a swim, and a Wiener roast. They have participated in different events in order to receive points. After they had earned the required number of points. they were awarded letters and pins. The club has had health talks and discussions at their meetings. These talks have been very interesting and helpful to the girls. Tennis has been one of the chief sports for girls this year. Mr. Miller, the sponsor of the Tennis Club. has taught the girls different ways of handling the racket, such as serving, the back- hand stroke, and other things necessary to know when one wants to play a good tennis game. They also have been learning different strokes to practice at home. The interest in tennis was shown by the large membership of the Tennis Club. -- nfu C' L. Page eighty-five lf?

M Uhr Carved huvnturr BY CLARENCE RIGGLEMAN VVAS riding in a taxi, down one of the principal streets of San Francisco when we came to a stop sign. Of course the driver stopped. the left of us. Glancing into the rear seat fthe mel, I saw a young girl, a beautiful young girl, a small, white, tight-fitting hat over her blonde concealed a very pretty dress, and held in her appear to notice me, but when the sign changed Immediately a large, shiny car drew up to chauffeur in the front seat did not interest drawing on a snow white glove. She wore hair, and an ermine coat which must have hand a plain white envelope. She did not and her car had started, she gave a slight but sharp twist of her wrist, and, much to my astonishment, the letter flew into my car. I picked the letter up, opened it, and becamemore astonished when I saw that it was addressed to me. When I looked up to sec where the car had gone, it had disappeared. I asked my driver, but he had not noticed the car. Not knowing anything else to do, I read the letter. Here it is, word for word: Dear Mr. Holms: I am in dire straits. Please help me! They will kill me if you don't. Follow the map and come quick as they are trailing me and I have to keep moving. I am going immediately to the Den. Inclosed with the letter was a map of the Den. From the part of the map which I could make out, the Den was in the very center of Chinatown, about eight stories underneath the street. I did not know what to do. I had been in the city only a short time, and I wondered how the girl had obtained my name. I knew no one in the city except the friend to whose home I was now going, and I had a right to believe that no one knew me. I was carrying a bunch of money then, about ten thousand, I had heard of the many ways to get a fellow's money. However, every time I thought of a new reason for not going, I recalled the girl and, my gosh, she overruled them all. I told the driver to go over into Chinatown to the corner which was shown on the map. We started toward that district of mystery, but after riding about five minutes, I saw my friend on a corner. I picked him up and told him about the letter. He said that since there were two of us, we ought to be able to take care of ourselves, and advised me to go to the place. CYou see, he thought that there ought to be some excitement in the adventurej It was not long until we arrived at the correct corner where we dismissed the taxi. We walked down the street to the third building, went through a narrow passageway beside the building, Ca deserted laundryj, and entered a cellar which was marked on the map. In the semi-darkness we could see that it was stored with ironing boards, tables, and other things probably left by the laundryman. It was damp and the things were partially covered with ,gs --- a . f L . -- n, Page ninety tiff' 2 jx- r-I - - f -vii -T-r-1 - Q: Il- - - I-r' - 'IT 41: - 'E- xe rm at TE white mold. In the northwest corner was a small door about a yard high, not easily noticeable to one who did not know it was there, I opened it and we entered a narrow but high tunnel which, although it was level for a few yards, began to descend at a steep slant. Rude steps cut in the hard ground made the descent easier. Although the secret passage had not been used much lately, the track of a woman was clearly outlined in the dust showing us that someone was below. We descended about one story and then the tunnel turned first to the right, then to the left, and then continued with the same sort of turns at the end of each flight. Coming at last to the end of the stairway, we entered a small room, the hrst of a series, where I lost my comrade in adventure. At the bottom of the stairs, I stopped to look at the footprints again, and he went on into the room. Hearing a dull thud, I cautiously entered the room to find a Chinaman bending over the prostrate body of my friend. Grasping the man by the neck, I choked him, methodically and thoroughly. My friend was unconscious so I dragged him behind the door and concealed him as well as I could. Then I very carefully opened the door of the adjoining room, but saw no one within. Evidently they Cwhoever they werej thought that one outer guard was sufhcient. I did not relax my vigilance, however, as I went from one room to the next. Finally, coming to the door of what I thought must be the last of the small rooms, I started to open it when I chanced to see a beam of light coming through the keyhole. Oh, how lucky for me was that beam of light, for when I. peeped into the room, I saw a Chinaman looking through the keyhole into a door across the room. The room was lighted with elec- tricity and I saw that there was no other person there. Very quietly opening the door, I tip- toed across the room, grasped him by the neck, and choked him also, methodically and thoroughly. Disdaining to look through the keyhole, I boldly opened the door, not knowing what to expect. At least, I didn't expect to see what I saw. It was a large, magnihcently although sparsely furnished room. There was a hardwood floor, heavily waxed, the room was lined with dark stained woodworkg and a few mahogany chairs together with a table and a lounge of the same wood were artistically placed about. The table was the thing which interested me most, not for its beauty Calthough it was beautiful in its massivenessj, but for the person who was lying on it. There lay the girl for whom I was searching, just as I had seen her in the car except that her coat was removed, showing a black silk dress. She either had been drugged or had fainted, for she lay very still and made no sounds. Above her swung a pendulum with a large, sharp, sabre-like piece of steel fastened to its end. It was slowly, inch by inch, coming closer, and was within six inches of her when I came in. I sensed all the above in a moment and then ran to the table. I dragged her from under the swinging death and carried her to the lounge where I tried to revive her. After XVOI'k111g over her for about tive minutes, I saw her eyes flutter and she opened them to stare wildly about. I took her in my arms, but just as I was about to kiss her, even as my lips were separated from hers by only a fraction of an inch,-I awoke. --, , - . ,,.

W 'hr Illahlv nf the Svtuilrnt sinh the if-vkvptir T VVAS at a book store that they met-at Nicholson's, to be exact. The Skeptic was looking over a Flaming array of popular magazines stretched across the wide open spaces on a thin wire. You could tell he was a skeptic by the way he glowered at everybody through a pair of great horn-rimmed glasses, and he fascinated the Student nearby who had fond hopes of some day becoming like him. This, said the Skeptic, with a flourish of his walking stick, QSkeptics always carry walking sticks.D This is impossible! My dear sir, said the Student, as Darwin said, nothing is impossiblef' You will learn, said the Skeptic, witheringly. But whyf' asked the Student. CAll Students ask questions.D Why is that display of magazines impossible? Q It is not the magazines, replied the Skeptic. It is their names. Where, pray tell me, do the publishers find such cognomens?'l Oh! said the Student, they name them after people. Ridiculous! said the Skeptic. Don't tell me there are any people like that! I once thought so myself, but I have changed my mind! For a long time I sought the namesakes of magazines without avail. Why, asked the Student, did you want a veil? At this the Skeptic was about to walk away in high indignation when the Student said, Wait! I can show you a person to represent every magazine here! I do not believe you, said the Skeptic, but I'll go along. Where is it? So the Student, hastily catching up a list of the magazines on display while the clerk and the manager were arguing, led the Skeptic to the imposing pile of stone known to the surrounding population as Morton High School. Bahl said the Skeptic. He felt that he was called upon to say something. As they entered the hall, a young lady came dashing out of the auditorium with six books under each arm and a typewriter balanced on one elbow. She ran into the Skeptic and almost ruined his equilibrium. Papers flew from the books she carried, littering the halls. I beg your pardon! said she. 'AI hope you haven't caused me to lose any of the copy for the PIERIAN. I beg your pardon! Really, sir, I do! But I should think you might be careful. This PIERIAN is a valuable book! The Skeptic staggered to his feet and massaged a blackened eye. There is the first one on the list! said the Student. That's Clarissa Ahl-PIERIAN Editor-and The American Girl. The Skeptic had nothing to say. Suddenly a young gentleman clad in football togs dashed out of the gym and made a flying tackle at the Skeptic, sending him crashing to the floor. Awfully sorry, old chap! he apologized, helping him up. I was merely practising a little and I'm sure you don't mind. Just then somebody yelled, H45-H20-23l and the young hero was off down the hall. The A1l1Cl fFG71 Boy, said the Student. Football hero known in his home as Dwight Young! Cross him off the list, said the Skeptic, weakly. As they approached the stairs, three young ladies came dashing down and almost ran into them. One was singing Cor thought she wasj to the accompaniment of a silk covered ukulele, the other was keeping time with wide sweeps of a Trim Story Magazine, and the third was sewing a letter on her sweater with a darning needle which poked the unsuspecting Skeptic sadly in the eye as they passed. ,ia Page ninety-two I -jr 3 fig ' s 2 1.jTs :elf te imma! W Three more! said the Student. Myra Bosworth-Vogue and Ymzfhlr Cnnzffaniou- Gertie Torbeck-Illodcrn Priscilla-and Martha EVHYIS-A1'l1t'I'IL'UIl Ntwdlr'-IV0man. We only have ten more to see. The Skeptic groaned. Six young gentlemen approached, deep in conversation. So Matthews, he says to me, 'You get out and make it snappy or I'll have Cline come up and throw you outl' and I wasn't gonna stand for any back talk from any teacher so I just got up and walked right out! Look! said the Student. It's Freddie, the Sheik. Real name is Klotz and he repre- sents The Indc'pc'11de11i. So I says to her and then she says to me-, said another. Myron Hipskind! cried the Student. The l'V01llU1l,.S' Home Companion. Cross him off! said the Skeptic. So then I asked him if he thought the rain would hurt the rhubarb, came from an- other one of the sextette. Norman Shuteln said the Student. Shoot? cried the Skeptic. N-not this way, I beg of you! That's his name, said the Student. He's our ofhcial Country GFl1flL'1l1Cl7l.lD Fore 1 shrieked one of the gentlemen suddenly. Four what? asked the Skeptic. At that moment a golf ball crashed against his head, leaving him quite dismayed. Before he had recovered his composure, a young man rushed up to him and said, Great Bobby Jones! You spoiled the best shot I ever made! That, said the Student, calmly, is Kenneth Voss, The Amcriccm Golfer. W-what is the matter with the other two? asked the Skeptic. They aren't making a bit of noise. One of them is Jesse Plummer-The Bookman. He never talks when there's a book in the vicinity. The other is Lloyd Outland. We think he represents Success because he plays the violin so well. Violin! said the Skeptic. Do you suppose he'll play now? The Skeptic emitted a yell and never stopped running until he reached the third floor. There he saw three girls and stopped to see what they were about. Your typewriter is out of ink, said one imposing damsel. Get some. Mary Fossenkemperf' whispered the Student. The Indiana Tvarlwrf' I can't, answered the other. The filling station is closed. Then drain your fountain pen, answered the instructor. The other girl is Helen Harper, said the Student. She's The Gregg W1'itt'1'. And what about the third one? ' asked the Skeptic. What's she doing with that microscope ?l' That's Alice Ellen Page. She's a Truth Sm'kc1', replied the Student. Does that include all the magazines? asked the Skeptic, hopefully. One more. answered the Student. VVe'll find him on the fourth floor. They ascended the stairs. As they neared the chemistry laboratory they were enveloped in a wave of gas that issued from the room, followed by fire, brimstone, and snow. Help! cried the Skeptic. It's only The Scientific A1ncriran doing some experiments. In private life he is known as Ralph Oestingfl Cross him off! cried the Skeptic, who was no longer a Skeptic but has to be called something. When they were once more outside, the Skeptic sighed. It is very improper for a Skeptic not to sigh when his theories are destroyed. I never would have guessed it! said he. So leaning on his walking stick, the Skeptic went away, a sadder and a wiser man. Moral: When at first you don't succeed, cry, cry again.

T rt in Hlnrinn RT students in Morton are unusually fortunate in having an opportunity to become familiar with really fine paintings and to learn about great artists. Richmond has an art gallery with a very good permanent collection of pictures and a gallery for showing exhibitions of great value. This gallery is in Morton High School, and it is open to the use of art students at all times. Mrs. M. F. Johnston, who is director of exhibits for the Art Association, and who has a Hne appreciation and knowledge of art, gives many talks to the art classes. Another incentive is the encouragement afforded by a prize for poster-making given annually by Mrs. U. G. Murray. The prize winning poster this year was made by lletty Estelle. The prize is a scholarship to the John Herron Art Summer School at VVinona. At the Charity Fair the art classes conducted a gift shop. Painted scarfs, handkerchiefs, book-ends, lamp shades, and many other articles were made and sold. . ff'fg?+'s.. 1 , Page ninety-Eve In 1 2 -i- r--,v-- ' -.f-T-1-1-F f li -iq--fl-y-' LS. - - -V ' - 'l - 'FT' is Malay? t I Ihr Rim illntnrr Came the dawn. The Head Nurse looked at her watch and then at the patient beside the window. It's morning, she sighed. So it is! said the patient. i Hush, Mr. Brownf' said the Head Nurse. You are sinking rapidly. I'm not! said the patient. You are ! said the Head Nurse. If you're not, you'd better, because that's what I wrote on your report. I'm not Mr. Brown! objected the patient. Why aren't you ? asked the Head Nurse. In the hrst place, it isn't logical. In the second place, I am James Matthews, History and Civics a specialty. Also baseball and law. I'll be switchedlu cried the Head Nurse. ' Don't be silly, advised the patient. It isn't logical. How can you be switched when there are no switches? Such appalling ignorance! What is your name? Rosalind Maybelle Van Courtland, said the Head Nurse. The door opened and the doctor entered the room. How is the patient? he asked. He's dying, said the Head Nurse. 'Tm uotlu said the patient. You are!'l said the doctor. Don't contradict Miss Van Courtland. It isn't politell' Her name isn't Van Courtland! replied the other. It's Ahl-plain Ahl-that's alll She used to go to school to me when I taught at Morton, and she answered to the name of Clarissa. A I didn't! said the Head Nurse. Pardon me, you are right. You never answered anything, returned the patient. at Do you have any last messages? asked the Doctor. Can you give me any logical reason why I should? asked the patient. Of course! You have a bad case of Paragoric Fever. Last time you said it was something elsef' whispered the Head Nurse. What is the name? asked the Doctor. ' Matthews, said the patient. I beg your pardon. You have Sympathetic Neuritis, replied the physician, closing his notebook. Miss Van Courtland- Her name isn't Van Courtland! cried the patient. He's delirious, said the Head Nurse. Give him some quininef' Sh-h! cautioned the Doctor. He's going. 'Tm not! said the patient. Prove it. To satisfy his last wishes, Miss Van Courtland, we will call in the Crystal Gazer and have him look into the future. That will tell him whether he's going to live or, not! The Head Nurse pressed a button and a tall, dark Hindoo entered with a crystal ball. Here you will read the future, said he. It doesn't sound logicalf said the patient. Look in the crystal and you will see passing before you, columns cut from newspapers of 1937 which will foretell the future of yourself and your friends.

Miss Catherine Cox is pictured above. Although her name is now on every tongue, Miss Cox is very modest about her feat. lt was merely a lucky chance, she said. Any one could have done it. Great masses of people are now at- tracted to her lectures by the fame she has gained by her act. NOTED LECTURER ARRIVES Professor Hipskind is Former Resident of Richmond lt is with great pleasure that Miss Genevieve Cain, secretary of the local Y. VV. C. A. announces the arrival and contemplated lectures of Prof. Myron Hipskind of the Finfrock Memorial University. Professor Hipskind was formerly a student of Morton High School and is undoubtedly very well remembered by all who were connected with the school at that time, particularly the dean of boys. He has travelled exten- sively and has delivered lectures in all parts of the world. During his stay here. Mr. Hipskind will give a series of talks for the stu- dents of Morton High School in their school auditorium, There will be no admission fees. The first of the series will be given next Friday evening at 7:30 o'clock. The subject will be How to Study. Following this, there will be a lec- ture each Friday evening during the next month, the subjects of which will he: t'Profltable Enjoyment of Leisure Time. How to Finish School Easily. Kindness to lnstructorsf' How to Achieve Perfect Deport- ment. l A l l As she rounded a curve in the wood- land road. she came upon two men who were talking in subdued tones and men- tioned the First National Bank. Sus- pecting them to be the robbers, Miss Cox commanded them to throw up their hands and forced them to walk to her home where the maid summoned the police. The two men were taken to the city jail and after several hours of grilling. confessed to the crime, giving their names as Lawrence Porter and Myron Bud Eubanks. LIBRARIAN BECOMES POET LAUREATE OF CITY Miss Florence Ratliff, for several years librarian at Morton High School, has astonished the entire community by her marvelous verse and prose. Critics have pronounced her work to be the finest of the generation and it is with great pride that Mayor John Benn con- ferred upon her the title of Poet Lau- reate of Richmond. The following is one of her most noted poems, which was written some time ago and dedicated to her friend in this city. The happy, cheerful note which runs throughout the poem is the thing that makes it famous. Miss Rat- liEf's optimism is outstanding in all her writing. ALAS! The melancholy day is at a close. The dread black shadows of the evening fall, The wind is sobbing. moaning, as it blows, Night chills the land like some damp funeral pall. The cold White mists do silently creep down. Like ghosts, with elannny hands, to haunt thy rest, While gruesome owls with sudden shrieking sound Strike icy fear and terror to thy breast. Alas, to think how very brief our stay! Alas! To think that when our lives are o'er.

Miss Parke's objections to said Black Bottom were raised on account of the immoral dancing of Doyle Nicely and Mary Fossenkemper. The latter wears her skirts too short anyway. Mr. Nevue said that the dance was a beautiful one.

Words cannot express the public opinion of the technique of the stellar player in this film. Billy Boy as this popular actor is known to his innumerable feminine ad- mirers, is being lionized by the elite of Hollywood. The fact that he retires at 9:00 P. M. in order to maintain his figure has not lessened his welcome at the Beverley Hills mansions of well- known personages of the screen. Billy Boy attributes his success to the encouragement given him by his feminine schoolmates when he was a student of Morton High School of this city in the class of '27. He states that he was, during his career at Morton, quite bashful and painfully shy, and that his lady friends convinced him only with great difficulty that his great ability in the art of being a lover should not be wasted, but should be given to the public. So he finally went to Holly- wood, and, after many hardships, be- came an extra. However, such a talent as his could not be overlooked. so the Harrington-Foley studios signed him up for a three year contract with exclusive rights, and he is now recognized as the most popular screen idol of the present day. KLOTZ-MIKESELL NUPTIALS tContinued from page D marriage. was attired in a beautiful gown of green and yellow calico, and carried a bouquet of milkweed. Preceding the ceremonies, Mr. Nils Boson gave several charming selections o11 the comb, accompanied by Miss Marcia Weissgerber on the victrola. Why Did I Kiss That Girl P - I Wish I Had My Old Gal Back Again and Where Is My Wandering Boy To- night ? were the numbers played. After the wedding, a wedding break- fast was served at the Greasy Spoon Inn, which consisted of onions and chocolate ice cream. The table was artistically decorated with sprigs of rag- Weed and thistle. Mr. and Mrs. Klotz will make an ex- tended tour through New Paris and Chester after which they will be home to their friends at 208 Bridge Avenue, in ihe exclusive residential section known as Happy Hollow.

AMERICAN ATH LETES FINLAND AGAP AT FEATS OF AMERICANS Finland-The American track and field athletes are continuing their European invasion in remarkable sytle. At every appearance of the foreigners, thousands gather to pay them homage and to marvel at their feats. The natives are particularly amazed at the work of Oesting, the super-distance man of the Yankees. His great stamina a11d nervy work have gained the admira- tion of the whole nation. Chenoweth, crack sprinter, and Bond, pole-vaulter, are also gaining their share of glory. This trio is proceeding methodically to break all standing records, and Trainer Daily of the team says that they are in excellent condition. Coach Young of the American team, in a recent interview, stated that the team would soon leave for Paris, there to participate in the International Track and Field Carnival which is to be held in that city. Here they will be joined by Leroy Mustard, the middle-distance star, who is now in Berlin preparing for a contest with the famous German quarter-miler, Augustus Von Kraut. From Paris they will return to the United States for a short rest before sojourning to Mexico City to engage the famous Indian athletes of Mexico. STARTLE ALL EUROPE SMITH'S AMAZONS ANNOUNCE SCHEDULE The Amazons, for years the strongest women's professional basketball team in this section of the country, will again bid for world championship honors, ac- cording to Miss Betty Smith, their manager and coach. Ten of the teams eighteen scheduled games will be played at the new Walter Shattell Gym which has a seating capacity of 8,000. The opening game will be played December 9, when the Amazons meet the New York Garlics. The Garlics, for the last two years national women champions, will bring a powerful team which has been playing for the last four years. powerful teams to be met dur- season will include the Los All Stars, the Walla Walla together Other ing the Angeles lfVomen's Athletic Club, the Tampa Blue Streaks. With such an attractive sched- ule, it is expected the followers of the .Amazons will be given a chance to see what the locals can really do, and it is certain that all the games will be hard fought and replete with thrills. In the past few years women's bas- ketball has gained rapidly in popularity, showing that the public is ready to back a good team. All the girls have played since their high school days and are masters of the game. IN THE S p O EITEIWCQS WIMEQ R L A trip to Studt Stadium last evening found the Red Devil pigskin chasers hard at work in preparation for the big game Saturday in which the Mortonians meet their old rivals, Academy of Waco, Texas, during the annual Morton Home- coming. Coach Mustard is making every effort to get his charges into the best of con- dition for the coming battle. He seems well pleased with the Work of his men and stated that he fully expects that the Red and White would again emerge victorious although the Academy is famous for its football teams. Richmond's Fearless Four are cer- tainly making track history across the Big Pond. The Oesting, Bond, Cheno- weth, Mustard combination are the sen- sation of the day. We can remember when all four were students in old Mor- ton High School where they started their athletic careers. From the idols of Richmond fans they have developed into idols of the world's fans. This morning we found in our mail a letter from two old Morton Grads saying that they were on their way home to the Homecoming and that they were backing the old Red Devils to win. These grads are Guy Righter nad Clifford Cain who are now big egg men in the Easter Islands. ROBT. KAUPER ATTORNEY-AT-LAW And now for our little Hymn of Hate: We hate all guys who ever said That gool old Morton Pep was dead. With the completion of the Studt Stadium, Morton now has a place to hold her athletic contests. This stadium has several unique features, among which are hot showers that are really hot. Mr. Studt, who donated the money for its construction, is one of the city of Richmond's successful busi- ness men and a loyal supporter of ath- letics in the local high school. Back in the years 1926-1927 Studt was well known to the students of Morton as a fellow who did his best to make the school a success. LOCAL SWIMMER WINS CHANNEL DASH London-Staging a sensational iiying finish, Francis Peacock of the New World Athletic Club came up from third position to win the famous English Channel Dash from Cape Gris to Calais. Peacocks victory was no surprise to the experts who have picked him to win ever since he displayed his new Bermuda Creep stroke in practice last week. Peacock seemed to be quite fresh after his swim and walked up to the beach where he endorsed two breakfast-foods, a well known make of automobile, and a new brand of toothpaste. He then signed a contract with Harry Smith- meyer to appear on the latter's vaude- ville circuit at a salary of S5999 a week. Thad Braffett, another favorite, fin- ished in second place, but was disquali- tied for swimming out of his lane. S. P. C. D. H. APPEALS TO ATHLETIC BOARD Following a stormy session at the society headquarters yesterday, it was resolved by the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Dumb Humans that an appeal be made to the National Ath- letic Association to modify the football rules now in use so as to eliminate some of the prevailing roughness in that game. President Eunice Timmerman could preserve order only by threatening some of the members with expulsion from the meeting, and it was not u11til late in the evening that the resolution proposed by Thelma May was adopted, and Secre- tary Ellen Kluter authorized to draw up an appeal. ' This vigorous action was taken as a result of a professional football game held last Saturday in which several serious accidents occurred. Two play- ers, Melvin Quigley and Myrl Homan, are now suffering nervous breakdowns as a result of the harsh voice in which the visiting quarterback uttered his sig- nals. Another player, Charles Pitcher, is being held in the local calaboose on charges of assault and battery as a re- sult of his alleged breaking of an op- ponent's wrist watch crystal. At the time great concern was ex- pressed by all the spectators, but the action of the S. P. C. D. H. is the first definite action to be taken. It is fully expected that their appeal will bear great weight in the coming convention.
