September 23-After finally escaping from a satirical science teacher, we find another one. . The torture will be unbearable if Beggs and Myers both patrol the lower hall with their wise cracks. September 24-The football squad certainly feel indebted to Mrs. J. B. Kingsley. Besides instituting a banquet she has given a scoreboard to the school. September 25-Before football meeting tonight we saw Keene sneaking around the front of the auditorium watching Jeanne who was practicing for the Senior play. Ain't Love Grand? September 26-We got out of school early today, to go to Battle Creek. The time wasn't wasted because we beat them 26 to O. September 30-Anthony Dukette tells of an animal that walks like a blood- sucker. Tarzan Rockwell wants the law of gravity repealed so he can take an airplane ride. These aren't matters for the Farm Relief Board but for the Bug Relief Board. OCTOBER October l-Notice the embarrassed countenances of Heidamos, Shutes and some of the other long boys. Because why? Tommie Delihant, six foot- four inches, has arrived. October 2-We have just discovered the gym classes have been pulling weeds on the football field. Now we know where the green lield of ours has dis- appeared. October 3-To sum up tonight's football meeting use the word Twins We were either talking of the new twin shebas or laughing at Rockwell and Reardon, the sleeping twins. October 4-Well, we've seen 'ianother magician. As Mr. Horst says, 'lit wouldn't seem right to start out a lyceum course without 'another' magician. no matter how moth-eaten. Mr. Laurant was good, but I'd hate to sit beside him unless I had left my valuables at home. October 7-Three Rivers was scored on Saturday for the first time this season. The whole team looked terrible, although they won 13 to 7. St. Joe has a weak team compared with other years and should never have been allowed to score. There was a fire drill during 3rd hour. lf people in some classes re- turned as fast as they left the lost time would have been negligible. ln the Junior Reflector it said T. R. captured fourth place in the cross country meet last Saturday. That's fair, considering Kazoo was the only other entrant. October 8-I will take this time to thank Mr. Horst for his kindness, mercy, and consideration in operating a scoreboard during World series. October 9-Report cards. Kind teachers. What? October 10-'lThe Heart of Lincoln was given by Charles Bull and Louise Dorgen. October ll-The Constantine sheep were defeated by T. R.'s second team. 7 to 6. It was a hard fought game in which T. R. was outweighed but HOF outplayed. Some of the T. R. Vamps will be shedding hard, salty tears tonight. Mr. Horst omitted 5th hour Algebra for Ethyl demonstration just because I had my lesson. 9: Page One Hundred Seven

June 5-No exams. But must take time to recuperate from the past two days' labor: also vacation nears. Excuse me today. Please. June 6-No school today, but that was such a good Commencement speech made by Rev. Eifieldi that I wanted to mention it. June 7-Last Assembly today. Everyone's having a good time preparing for vacation. SEPTEMBER September 3-The Hrst day of school. 'lNuff said. September 4-Among the Who's Who of T. R. we find the clown of the Class of '30 or our old faithful number 'l66, Dean Tarzan Rockwell. He's especially noticeable on the football field this fall. September 5QWe have some new teachers here and some with new names. Among the latter, Miss Major has sacrificed her majorship to become a loving wife. September 6-We heard Mr. Harold Pa Voorhees make his football re- quests for more recruits, after which Mr. Horst declared school opened, all tra- ditions having been attended to. September 9-The Seniors, calm, immovable, and dignified fcan this be true?l have settled in the old routine. Vinton has revived his sighs of utmost agony at every assignment, and Bill Hicks contentedly sucks his thumb throughout Algebra Class. September lO-The girls are getting stirred up about their lockers which they wanted so badly. If you'd give a girl a chance to wish for anything she'd probably wish for something to crab about. September l l-Gerald Beggs: So you Want to graduate with a degree, eh? Harold T. Red Cook: Yes, Sir. Gerald Beggs: How would a B. V. D. from the Union Suit you? September 12-Miss Williams: Where did the Pilgrims land? Mumble of voices: Cape Cod, Plymouth, Boston Spencer: l'Somebody's a liar. September l3-Everybody's enthused over the football game. Why shouldn't they be? We got out of school at 2:15. September 16-Our football team averages l64 pounds in the line and 153 pounds in the backfield. Not half bad. September 17-After a book report Miss Hangsterfer asked Vinton Schweit- zer if he knew what the story was about. Yes. little Vinton replied, I've read it. September 18--Fair Day, Hurrah! September 19- Believe it or not we not only discovered Tarzan Rock- well at the Fair yesterday but with a girl on each arm. September 20-Seating assignments were placed in the bulletin board this week and two minutes before Chapel they were taken down by the Principal. Only half the pupils knew where to sit. What a mess! September 22-Judging from the appearance of our football team in its first games, we have just as good a team as we had last year. Page One Hundred Six

October 14--Vicksburg was decidedly defeated by a score of 47 to O. The reserves scored two touchdowns against them. October l5-In U. S. History someone tried to tell about the Hslops of war. ' October 16-Four Junior girls crashed the party tonight given by the Ep- worth League for the Seniors and Teachers. Revengef Ah-sweet revengel Miss Hangsterfer didn't get our papers corrected last night because the lights went out earlier than usual. Evidently the light goes out every night. Well, there's no cause for fear as long as you have company. ' October l7-The Manual Arts sponsored the Assembly program today. We were entertained by the Kalamazoo State Theater orchestra. October 21-Three Rivers beat Coldwater last Saturday by a score of l3 to O. Coldwater is one of the two hardest teams we play this year. The other is Dowagiac. October 22- Keene, answering Mr. Myers, says that the sea gets deeper the farther down you go. Gerald Allen Beggs graduated from the ranks of Ford owners. He now drives a stately Hudson. CHe ought to have some rich uncle leave him an oil well, he'll need it.j October 23-The Senior play was certainly a success. Miss Comar and cast received the compliments of the entire school. As usual, several persons couldn't behave and steps will be taken to prevent them annoying anyone again. October 24-Bob Ruth attempted to absorb some laughing gas a short time ago but was unable to get results. Today he made some more in Chem. Lab. and while taking it, fell off the stool onto the floor. When interviewed he said he didn't feel like laughing. October 25-The Hi-Y Club gave the program today. H. K. Doane held the whip hand over Mr. Myers. As expert radio announcer, he told embarrassing stories of our new physics teacher's childhood before Mr. Myers could throttle him. October 28-The football team beat their old rivals in the old-fashioned atmosphere of Crack Three Rivers. Beat Three Rivers written on windows. cars, and even on the programs. Sturgis is a good example of medieval pro- gress. Rudeness to an opposing team has been out of date for some time. October 29-This is just another week when pupils have a good excuse for not having their lessons. To hear some of them, you'd think they attended Hallowe'en parties eighteen hours a day, sleeping the other six Qin schooll October 30-lt is interesting to watch, when the period for parties-as Hallowe'en. Christmas, etc., the variety of dues signs that appear. October 31-Our cross country team was defeated by a Class A team today. Outside of the officials and the football squad only two or three people were there. It certainly takes guts to keep going, when you're outclassecl and with apparently no backing, with the same spirit.
