I -fe- How ii-ue it is, as the old Greek Sage The Turner Lumber Sr Supply Co. said, that the handbook is Reserve's Bible. 'L Hudson' Ohio! - Phone 2.1 Dr, Hayden has expostulated frequently q.-.-.-.-------.-M- .-.- -.-.--rr-.----r-in-----.r----.-.14. in chapel upon the subject of our Hand- GCD- G0lft Hardware C0- l book--Reserve's guiding light. Many other devout prophets of our noble faculty have spread themselves amply on this sub- ject: Love thy Handbook as thyself, and more of the same, all good, strong mus- tard. Early in the morning, the pious Reserv- ite faces east toward Mecca, kneels rever- ently on his prayer mat, bows down before the Handbook on its incense-scented shrine, and prays to the great gods of the Hand- book not to give him tenths during the day. Let us quote from our sacred copy. From page 75, we recite in cadence the formal greeting to the master on entering class, Let me take the shovel, sir, your arm is getting tired. The entire handbook is written in this beautiful poetic style rem- iniscent of Shelley, Shakespeare, Milton, or Spooner when he stubs his toe on a Cleve- land curbstone. Followers of the gospel will even find on page 54 of your Morocco-bound fcompli- ments of Paramount Picturesj copy, the hymnal, which consists of The Hardscrab- ble Hymn, H99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall, and similar favorites of Reserve Evangelists and Billy Sundays of the Hand- book. Under the helpful heading, Break- fast Preparationsf' will be found this rare fwhich, in restaurant lingo, means raw J and juicy morsel: For boys of the Athenaeum, North Hall, and Carroll Cutler, the process of coming from their dormitory to breakfast is very complex and necessitates the practice of a great art. The boy is seen to rush from his dormitory holding his English book be- fore him with one hand, studying intensely, and following it like an eager bloodhound nearing the end of the scent. With the other hand he brushes his teeth, buttons his shirt, clips on his tie, ties his shoe- laces fthis is considered the most difficult part of the process and requires a remark- able sense of balancei, and then gets his coat from his roommate who is carrying it. As, however, the roommate has to go through the whole art, too, this calls for a rather complicated juggling maneuver on the order of a trained seal. Since all this is done at a run, it has caused more than one circus talent scout to raise his eye- brows with appreciationf' Thou hast listened, thou hast been beaten on the head, thou hast been given exalted tenths-take heed. Such is the Word and the Light at Reserve. It is every Reservite's ambition to be a monk, to live in the Upper Room and Write the Handbook for next year. Remember, kid- dies, there is an old expression which says, J. Frederick Waring Mr. J. Frederick Waring has returned to take up his duties in the departments of English and history after a two year's ab- sence. The first of these was spent as an ambulance driver with' the American Field Service and the second in teaching abroad. Mr. Waring served throughout the Tuni- sian campaign with the medical branch of the British Eighth Army. Born in Savanah, Georgia, Mr. Waring attended school there. After he had com- pleted grade school, he became a student at Governor Dummer Academy in Massa- chusetts. Upon graduation he attended Yale and later studied English literature at Magdalene College, Cambridge Univer- sity. Before returning to America he taught in English schools. After his ar- rival in the States he taught for five years at Salisbury School. During this time he obtained his master's degree from the Uni- versity of Wisconsin. To complete his teaching experiences he spent some time at a girls' school. When the Tunisian compaign was com- pleted, Mr. Waring requested another year to visit and teach in Syria. Joining the staff at the American University of Beirut, he also took part in educational lectures which were given to the soldiers during their rest at Tripoli. During the actual campaign Mr. Waring was in several bombings but received no more than his share of action. Mr. Waring takes an interest in paint- ing and the collecting of antiques and books. His apartment in Cutler is lined with iron age lamps and other relics. But, sir, it says in the handbook .... This immediately makes that master sub- ject to your will, for the decision of the Handbook is supreme and final. There are, however, as is to be expected, atheists who read this statement with cynical unbelief. Don't be an atheist. 4.

Page 24 RESERVE R E C O R D October 2.6, 1944 First Grades Are In NE week ago each of you received marks for the first period of this year. Good, bad or indifferent, they represent your accomplishments and the results of your application for the first six weeks. There is, as always, a large number of boys in- clined to feel a bit disappointed with these results. This seems to be a widespread attitude with the Re- servite, regardless of the relative quality of the grades. In this first period of indication, there may be some justification for falling short of your expectations. The problems of scheduling, of getting settled, and of leav- ing vacation behind can hardly be overlooked. The pres- ence of these problems might well prevent a maximum of mental application which is so necessary for any degree of success. In terms of their actual influence upon the final grade, those grades bear no more than a little effect. as a stimulation. They offer, above all else, a veritable gauge of a number of matters. They are a direct indica- tion of those subjects in which each of you are weakest. They reveal whether or not your use of free time and your allotment for studies has come to a favorable bal- ance. They disclose exactly the results of your efforts. The remainder of this term and the entire winter term will hold no slackening in their requirements. Furthermore, there will be a great deal of interesting, tempting diverson which appears at various times. It will assuredly occur to you to let your work slide, even if only an occasional evening. It may be necessary to learn from experience, but ultimately the truth will out. Every undone assignment will stab you in a dozen places. It is the better part of common sense to expect the worst. g First of all, improve what marks are lowest. Very likely they seem inadequate, but don't give way to de- spair. Be disappointed, if the case calls for it, but never Their value exists primarily as an indication and secondly disheartened!

Reardon Rollie Cockley Chosen Captain of Soccer Team Rollie Cockley, the most experienced veteran of the soccer team with four let- ters to his credit, was elected captain of the squad, it was announced just before the game with University School last Sat- urday afternoon. Rollie, who has won his letter in soccer both in his-sophomore and junior years, is the mainstay of the team this year in the center half-back position. So far this year he has certainly played the kind of soccer deserving of this honor. Rollie, the newly elected secretary of the 1944 RU Club, will be in there kicking when U. S. comes up to play off the second game here this coming Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock. A member of the basketball team and twice a letterman in tennis hail- ing back from his freshman year, Rollie has proven himself to be one of the school's best athletes. I news received from Lt. Caldwell was on September 3. he is well enough to move around. It will not be long before Carl will be able to re- turn to Reserve to resume his school activ- ities. All students leaving on double week-ends or athletic trips will be expected to turn all homework into the masters or make ar- rangements with the masters before leav- ing the campus on these trips. Beginning next Monday all books left in the hallsf including stairways and floorsj will be collected and fines must be paid before the books will be returned. f 'z f' vi .J il P 1 r. r. l I o Thursday, October 26-Dr. Hayden speaks in Chapel.

Page 2.6 RESERVE RECORD october ze, 1944 Ruedemunn,Reviere Stem U.S. Offensive in 2-2 Tie Cockley, Kennedy and Stoltzfus Power Green and White Offense Playing their second game of the year, this time at University School, the soccer team last Saturday afternoon finally settled for a 2-2 tie with the Maroon and White of Cleveland. Despite a second five minute overtime neither team could seem to put the ball through the other's portals once again. Finally with dusk approaching both groups settled for the resulting tie. Reserve's foreign soccer team opened up for the first time about two minutes after U. S. tallied the first score. Bell of U. S. who had broken loose for a second, lined things up to Goalie Ed Collins's great- est discomfort, and slipped one past Ed. Reserve's ,foreign element composed of Stoltzfus of Syria and Kennedy of Trini- dad thereupon got mad and on a fast Stoltzfus to Kennedy play shot one through U. S.'s goal in considerable haste. The first quarter ended with the score at a dead tie 1-1. The second quarter was uneventful ex- cept for the continually beautiful playing of Ruedy Ruedemann, formerly from Europe, and George Reviere, onetime Re- serve's good-will agent to the Argentine. Ruedy and Reviere played the outstanding games of the day at their fullback spots. More than once with the Maroon and White jerseys bending under the impetus of U. S.'s goalward drive, these two faithful fullbacks broke things up pretty nicely, re- ceiving for their efforts nothing worse than scarred shins. Cockley, Reserve's oldest soccer man who this year is winning his third letter in that sport, opened up the third quarter when he rifled one to Stoltzfus, who fol- lowed to put the ball where it most prop- erly belongs. Immediately afterward U.S. fthis time a little aroused themselvesj broke loose and got another one through Collins to tie things up a second time. Thus ended the third quarter 2-2. The fourth quarter saw some real run- ning on the field, as both teams fought desperately for the winning goal. At one time U. S. was bouncing shots off our goal like buckshot, but Ruedemann and Reviere tended to stop this quickly. The quarter finally ended with the game 2-2. True to soccer rules and traditions the overtimes were played with ferocity on the parts of both sides. Still neither could score with the result that as the field be- came darker the game was called and settled on a 2-2 tie. This Saturday U. S. comes to Reserve to play again. The advantage this time will be slightly in favor of the Green and White, as our halfbacks are used to our long field. The U. S. field, slightly shorter, caused Halfbacks Cockley, Philips, and Young con- siderable trouble as they kept putting the ball clean over the road. This Saturday Reserve will be looking for a victory. Gridders Tie Chagrin I4-14, as Roush Stars The Pioneer gridders' record stands at two ties, one loss, and a win, after they tied Chagrin Falls 14-14 on Saturday. Up against a lighter team the Green and White showed that all they lacked was fight. Size, weight, speed, and Jimmy Roush's running couldn't make up for the fight that they encountered. The precision and speed of the opposition took them completely by surprise, and they were forced to make a second half comeback to come out with a tie. Reserve kicked off and held the Black and Orange on the first few plays. Taking over, they began to drive down the field. A fumble lost them the ball and halted what had looked like a touchdown march. From that play on Reserve hardly figured in the game for the first quarter. Chagrin went through the middle a few times and then switched to end runs, which have been so effective against the Pioneers all season. Near the end of the period Don Humme, the Chagrin quarterback, skirted around his right end, faked a lateral, and romped forty yards to score standing. Their fullback, Britton, plunged over for the extra counter, making the score 7-0 Chagrin. Vaught caught their kickoff and was through the whole team when the last man nicked his shoe and spilled him, stopping Reserve's second threat to score. The second stanza saw the Green and White picking up. They went to the Chag- rin thirty-yard line before another fumble stopped them. Again they were driven back into their own territory on off tackle and end runs. With six yards to go, Chag- rin went OH the Reserve left tackle for their second tally. Again their plunge for extra point was good with Reed hitting the Green and White forward wall. With two minutes of the half remaining Pete Brett reached up and intercepted a pass. Reserve really showed what it could do in those last minutes. Roush shook his tacklers loose and gained fifteen yards. Joslyn then replaced Arnold and went around end for twenty more yards. Roush again streaked through for figteen yards, and Reserve was in scoring position. An- derson caught a pass in the Hats and placed the ball on the five-yard stripe. Roush car- ried it to the one, from which Joslyn plunged over. Jimmy Roush converted for the extra point. Reserve started the third quarter the way they ended the second. In two minutes they had their second touchdown. After a quick series of line plays, in which Roush was again the principal ground gainer, Dick Anderson crossed into pay dirt from the seven-yard line. This time Taylor was substituted for the conversion. His kick through the uprights made the score 14-14. The opening moments of the fourth per- iod saw the Green and White really hold. With a first down the Chagrin eleven had the pigskin on the Reserve one-yard line. Pete Brett was the boy who stopped three Rafiid Zasew I .6 Latest cry seems to be See you at the Tudor Arms. . . .

Later in the stanza the Green and White again started to roll the opposition back. But two off'-sides penalties put them too deep in the hole and they lost the ball on downs. No other threats were made by either team in five remaining' minutes, though Nicholson was trying hard to con- nect on a long pass when the final whistle blew.
