The committee, composed of Mr. Tilt and Mr. Simon with Mr. Culver as chairman, assisted by Sandy MacDonne1l, Tom All- chin and Bill Linforth, have already made plans for the drive here in the school which begins on Tuesday of next week. Their main aim is to beat the amount received in last year's drive, a total of S186031. Unlike last year, the drive this year will not include work pledges, mainly because of the small amount received last year and because of the fact that most of the stu- dents didn't have time to finish out the work pledges last year. All the pledges this year are to be paid either in cash or by check. The pledges also may be paid in part or in full at the initial collection. The money went to twelve different agencies last year. They were: Akron War Chest, 5159005 Cleveland, 252,505 War Prison- er's Aid, S1003 P. T. A., S255 Boy Scouts, S303 Girl Scouts, S303 Churches, S755 Youth Hostel, S155 March of Dimes fHudsonl, 35253 World Student Service Fund, S255 Red Cross Drive, 250: Save the Children Federation, 560, making a total paid out of 51785.00 The balance is held on campus for any emergency that might arise in the course of the year. This year the need is bound to be greater. Qcontinued on Page 2, Column 33 In the recent military and political poll conducted at Reserve for the purpose of finding the students' views on the coming election and the war, Thomas E. Dewey was the choice for president and Generals Patton and MacArthur were the favorite military leaders. When all votes had been received, Gov. Dewey was favored above President Roose- velt by nearly 75722 of the entire school. President Roosevelt carried 2O'7b of the student body and the remaining 5711 were unwilling to cast their votes either way. General Ike Eisenhower was not far behind Generals Patton and MacArthur in the poll. In a close third place was Gen- eral Montgomery, followed by Generals Marshal, Bradley, Patch, Wainwright, Doo- little and Clark. - Nearly 5096 of the school would have nominated Gov. Dewey to run on the Re- publican ticket. Thirty per cent would have chosen Gov. Bricker, 15'Z2 would have chosen the late Mr. Willkie and the re- maining 596 were cast for Comm, Stassen. Of the Democratic ballots only 4071 fa- vored President Roosevelt. Mr. Barkley and Mr. Truman had an equal amount of votes totaling 50'Z:. The remaining votes were cast for Vice President Wallace. After the war 93 'Zi of the students would be willing to endorse the United States' joining a League of Nations and would be willing, if necessary, to enforce its doc- trines. For the period after the war nearly 7576 of the school chose private owned utilities which includes water, gas, and electric companies. Practically everyone thought that Adolf Hitler would flee to Argentina, Sweden or some other neutral country. Some' believed he would be killed by some of his own peo- ple. Others were of the opinion he would commit suicide before he would surrender to the Allies, still others believe he will be taken prisoner when the Allies finally reach the heart of Germany. 1 It proved difficult to prophecy when the European war will end. Mr. Churchill himself said it would end by September 31. Others have said it will continue for a year or more. The general belief at Reserve' is that it will end this year. The date which has been set for the end of Germany is December 25. With respect to the war in the Pacific no one believes its climax will be reached before the end of next year. No one, however, thinks it will continue for more than one more year.

Page 14 . RESERVE RECORD October 5, 1944 Soccer Team Meets Oberlin Marines Friday The varsity soccer team will open its four-game schedule tomorrow against the Oberlin Marine Detachment at Oberlin. With only two returning lettermen, Cock- ley at half and Ruedemann at fullback, the Green and White will be starting with an inexperienced eleven. Spooner and Siddall, lettermen from last year's team. will not be playing because of injurv and a change to football respectively. Thus the front line has undergone a complete change. On the line with game experience is Pete Fletcher and Ben Stoltzfus, who comes to us from Syria where soccer is a national sport. The probable lineup against the Marine trainees will be: Pierce and Garrigan at wings, Fletcher and Critchfield at the in- side spots, Stoltzfus will hold down the cen- ter forward place, Phillips, Cockley and Young filling the halfback positions, Ruede- mann and Reviere at fullback and Collins in the goal. ,-1.-.igi first league Game Ends in I4-I4 Deadlockp Austen Stars The initial game in league football was played Monday. Teams A and B under coaches Scibby and Pflaum played their first game on the upper field to a 14-14 deadlock. The first score of the game was made by the B eleven on an intercepted pass. A quick retaliation to this sudden setback was made by the A squad when Frank Austen tossed a beautiful pass to Dave Hobart, who in turn raced into the end zone. Hobart also made the extra point. In the second half the A team took the lead when Ramsayer intercepted a pass and weaved down the field for another six- pointer. With a quick opening play off tackle the A's put the extra point over. Later, in the fourth period, the B team started to roll. They pushed their way to another touchdown by virtue of their quick run backs. The score was tied at 14-14 when they crashed through center for their second extra counter. The A eleven had the ball on the enemy's 30-yard line when the final whistle blew.

The Green and White gridders had held a good lead over their opponents throughout the length of the game, but the Red and White of Kent were gaining fast and furiously until Bob Joslyn intercepted their last attempted pass and went for six points, setting the final score at 24-14 in the favor of Reserve. Immediately upon receiving the kickoff Kent fumbled and Reserve recovered the ball. Jim Timmis smacked the opponents right off with a flat pass to Hott who went for ten yards. However, the mo- mentary rush was halted, and the ball went to Roosevelt on downs. They tried to run our line, but the weight of Pablo, Dennett, Howard and Brewer soon killed all hopes. Upon their fourth down Kent tried to kick. Pablo Brett, Center The kicker was swamped by rushers averag- ing something like 185 pounds with the result that Reserve recovered for a safety and two points. After a few more minutes of play the situation found Reserve on their own forty- nine yard line, third down and seventeen to go. Jos, kicking for Reserve this year, placed one sweetly upon the opponent's two- yard stripe, where it rolled out of bounds. Once again the Kent Roosevelt team tried to kick out, and once again Reserve swamped the kicker and recovered the ball for a safety. Still in the first quarter Jos scored again when he lugged the apple from the Roose- velt forty-five to their three-yard line and then easily pushed it over. Jim Roush neatly placed the ball between the posts, but it was called back on an offside pen- alty, whereupon Jimmy did it again. The score stood at the end of the first quarter: Reserve 11, Kent Roosevelt 0. The second quarter seemed to be well provided with penalties and fumbling. In fact nobody could be sure of any play until the next one had started. Reserve's second touchdown came midway in the second quarter when Roush cut loose by carrying the ball to the enemy nine-yard stripe. Doc Timmis furthered it to the six' with Jimmy Roush taking it over for six more tallies. Jimmy repeated his booting to raise the score to 18. Kent still could find no holes in our defense until they tried passing. Then a quick one in the Hat went for six points for the Red and White with the extra point being carried over. As the half ended the score stood at 18-7 in the Green and White's favor. Kent came out with renewed enthusiasm, the result that a quick triple-relay in the beginning of the third quarter them six more points. Once again ran the extra one over. With the with pass gave they score 18-14 and no sign of activity from the home team for the past two quarters, spectators on the sides were becoming considerably worried. The third quarter continued without serious threat by either team. Finally, with three minutes left to play in the game, the opponents were fight- ing for their skins. A series of passes had netted them considerable territory. Con- sequently they threw one too- many. Jos- lyn, having had three quarters to figure it out, suddenly came tearing through one of their passes, snagged it neatly, and took off for sixty-five yards and a touchdown. The point was missed this time, and the game ended soon thereafter. The score remained 24 for Reserve to 14 for Kent Roosevelt. i Laurie Dennett, Tackle

Page 16 RESERVE R E C O R D October 12, 1944 Saturday Night Permits - N the latter part of October of last year, a few weeks short of a year ago, an involved situation confronted both the Council and the Executive Committee con- cerning Saturday Permits. Due to the national time change, those busses and trains which had previously carried boys from Cleveland and Akron were running one hour earlier compared with the new time. Thus, the entire Saturday permit system became impractical. For those boys on varsity teams, and for those who were gen- erally present at varsity contests, a one-hour cut in these permits was unbearable. This curtailment was considered a just grievance, for a four-hour leave was hardly promising. One of two alternatives had to be adopted: either the Saturday permit system must be abandoned or an additional time allowance had. to be granted. By careful planning on behalf of both masters and students, it proved possible to extend the time restric- tions to a later hour. The plan in entirety was turned over to the student prefects, a great deal, of trust and responsibility therefore being placed on this group. Fortunately, the outcome of this plan was so en- couraging that a similar plan has been adopted for this school year. lf it proves as successful as during the previous year, it will have been sufficiently established to merit adoption indefinitely. Due to the fact that the majority of upperclassmen are not aware, as they were last year, of the responsibility which is in the hands of the prefects and themselves, it may be necessary to present something in the way of a reminder, to them. One slip on the part of any boy in a single case may necessitate the abandoning of this privilege. There is no reason to believe that such meas- ures will have to be resorted to, for there has been as yet absolutely no evidence of any lack of cooperation on the part of any student. If every boy will realize that the confidence of the entire school has been placed in him, the chances of failure are indeed small. We have all been initiated to the details of the procedure, so that no missteps should be due to ignorance. It is a student sponsored and stu- dent operated plan with which we are dealing. Cheating it would not be a difficult matter, but it is the trust of the students and of those who have made the privilege possible which would have been violated. I U I I O Dr. Geo.

While here he studied at the Union Theological Seminary and received his M. A. from Columbia University. Dr. Michaelides used as the subject for his chapel address Love Conquers, Love Never Fails. He stressed the fact that the only inscriptions that are permanent are those which are made on men's hearts. He spoke of a friend of his at the college in Smyrna. This boy had done very well in his studies, but couldn't seem to grasp the religious side of school life. All he wanted from the school was a diploma which would enable him to earn a living later on. However, one of the faculty succeeded in turning him to religion. When he graduated, this young man, much against his will, was taken into the Turkish Army. He was put on night patrol duty along the British lines. He had but one step to take to reach that which was pure and decent and right. However, his religious training in the college would not permit him to desert the Turkish Army. A few days before the Armistice was signed, he was killed by a British shell. In his loyalty to duty he had made an inscrip- tion that would never be forgotten on the hearts of the people who had known him. This alone was permanent above all world- ly things.

Column 27 The fund will include several new benefits. As heretofore, however, the majority will remain at home to do work for the com- munity. Last year S1410 from the whole sum remained in Hudson to give aid and comfort here. As the war continues there will naturally be more need for the money both here, and abroad. Last year and the year before the average contribution from each student was three dollars. This year the need is still greater. The contributions from each student should increase in direct proportion to the in- creased goal. The school and the RECORD both urge you to dig down a. little deeper and see if you can beat last year's total with this year's contributions. Remember, it's all for good causes.
