We have tried to present this idea by both artistic and literary means. The faculty we have likened to the legs of the bearg the seniors, to its headg and the underclassmen, to the body. We have shown similarities between the sports program and the bear's muscles. Clubs have been compared to its nervous system and homerooms to its intelligence. Likenesses are also pointed out between the Tattler and Saga staffs and the five senses of the bear. That you will enjoy this yearbook, which is the result of a year's effort, is our only hope. F' ,xo iii ' I 1 ,. uf. ll ' ' 'If O MISS AMIE MILLER, in recognition of her splendid record of eighteen years of fine teaching and service to Woodward and its students, we dedicate the 1939 edition of the Woodward Saga-Tattler. Since 1921 Miss Miller has been a member of the Woodward faculty. Always during that time she has been skillful in her teaching, gracious in her manner, and well-loved by the student body. Her fine work as class dean ought also to be mentioned. She has been adviser of the junior and senior girls since the new building opened, and at Woodward Technical she was dean of sophomore girls for many years. Miss Miller has always been efficient, patient, loyal, dependable, and charming. Because of her service, character, and popularity, we dedicate the Saga to Miss Amie Miller. f M Miss Rozella Woodrich July 3, 1896 February 25, 1939 gint iuill grivur uni, YZIHEPI' finh fbffvllgfll in iulgut rcmzxius luvlginhg Jin flgr priuml sgllrpzzilyg A A fllllgirlg Igilllillg lwru must rum' lwg G A T cfllu the suuilgiug ilguuglgis H3211 spring T 07111 uf IIIIIIIFIII 5lIffD1'fIlBQ Elm ilgv fzliilg H3211 lunks ilgruuglg hvzlill, Blu grams 113111 lwiug tlgr plgilusuplgir urinh- 0'!hr on Fniiumfiuns nf 3lun1u1ri:1liiu ' lllnrhshmrilg Z5 H ERVING AS 'A FIRM FOUNDATION for the student body, the faculty of Wood- ward High School may well be compared to the legs of the polar bear. The legs of the bear, which are strong and sturdy, support the entire body. The Wood- ward teachers, veritable strongholds of information, good character, strength, and kindliness, support Woodward. But, just as the legs of the bear must be supple to obtain the best advantages from their strength, so must the faculty be flexible in its viewpoints, everchanging with the events of the world in order that the students may receive the best possible instruction. Woodward is fortunate in having such teachers. S PRINCIPAL of Woodward High School, Charles C. LaRue extends to all the members of the class of '39 his sincere wishes for their continued success. May they enjoy their future lives as they have the years spent in school. For the underclassmen he voices the hope that they will return to Woodward next year to again pursue their high school careers. Deep gratitude is felt toward all the faculty and the student body for the fine spirit of cooperation they have shown in all their activities. i Cwacuity MiSS Angela Abliil' Miss Laura Adams Miss June Anderson H0919 ECOHOHIQCS .

The seniors of '39 have participated in athletic con- tests of many kinds, both inter-scholastic and intra-mural. They have, in four years, sponsored plays, operettas, dances, parties, and various other activities. A large number of them have been top-ranking students scholastically. Successful in all these ventures, this year they have been leaders in Woodward. Therefore, it is fitting that we liken the senior class, the directing force of the student body, to the polar bear's head. In the same manner as the body of the bear goes where the head leads, the under classmen follow the example set by the seniors who guide the channels of curricular and extra-curricular activities. Seniors head the parade! 151W 7' sv r ' is ., '.c ,-1,3 M George Hope Cloine Myers Sergeant at arms Secretary Verne Kramer President Miss Miller O DECIDEjbetween right-and wrong, to' control every action accord- ingly--these are the functions of one's will power. Since similar duties are imposed upon class deans, we shall compare the deans to the will power of a polar bear. In any one day of the bear's existence, his will power may have to answer the following questions. Where shall I search for food? Can Iresist the temptation of sleep in order to make provisions for my protection? Is this a trap? Should students be allowed to do this? Is this absence excuse legiti- mate? Shall I issue a working permit to John? These are problems faced by class deans practically every day. If his will power makes the right decision, the bear survives. If the class deans fulfill their duties conscientiously, the school and the student benefits. Woodwardis deans are efficient. Woodward marches on!

Many of us have wasted numerous third hours, maybe not with a detective magazine, but in some other idle fashion. If the bear does not use his mental powers for any purpose except to gain shelter and food, he is not taking advantage of all his intelligence. So, too, homeroom periods are not put to their full use by the students. Should the bear desire to, however, he could employ strategy and good judgment to reap the benefits of a well-rounded life. A conference hour filled with concentrated study, serious thought, or useful labor is possible and would prove beneficial to all. The polar bear has his intelligenceg we have homeroom periods. Will these be put to full use? n si 'x 1 xx Home Roum 330. Teacher, Mr. McMurray.

Clubs, the nervous system of Woodward, also demand cooperation among them- selves to gain a well organized club program. The realization of pleasure and pain brought about by the bear's five senses is governed by nerves which extend through every portion of the body. Joys and trouble become a part of school life as a result of experiences met in the clubs which include nearly every phase of Woodward. Individual participation also plays an important part in both nerves and clubs. Tiny nerves join together to form small groups which in turn combine to make up the entire nervous system. Every student plays a certain part in the clubs to which he belongs which are units of the complete club program. The components, the separate nerves, the various types of school organizations all fit together to achieve a resultant, an orderly nervous system, a well balanced club program. . 1 ,f p 1 'I-,lufh JV 1 .fliii g Library Association President---Verne Kramer Vice-President---Virginia Chapman S Secretary---Marie Smolka Sergeant-at-arms---Wayne Wheeler Treasurer---Fred Saba Adviser---Miss Sawtelle ,Ma be ., r - l.e,,g,Q ---. :s.,,.. .,1 if o WF C M ' , v-W ' gg ig N' ' ng J A 3 ' as -s r unusual! eaenai M .

Just so would our school be incomplete without its athletic pro- gram to supply activity, interest, and variety. Like the muscular action of the bear, sports provide exercise and recreation to keep the year's activities aliveg without them, the school curriculum would be lifeless indeed. Through the efforts of its athletes and coaches the muscles of Woodward have remained in motion during victory and defeat. Under strenous difficulties the Woodward lads have never failed to give their utmost in order that sports might survive. They have Worked unceasingly to expand these muscles---to make them strong, vigorous, and capable of bearing their share of the burden of Woodward. p Qitfifeiiciqgriat if l-I .

It is hoped that the spring sports, baseball, tennis, golf, and track, will add other laurels to our records.

Victories over their out-of-town adversaries, Marion, Fort Wayne, and Clay, were the net result of the Bears' victory record. The saddening elements, however, were the outcomes of their city league endeavors. Woodward lost all five of their local tilts, but the usual vim, vigor, and vitality that is always highly evident in Bear teams were prominent factors in their re- taining the title of being the 'fscrappiest team in the city. As is always the case, the usual injuries, poor equipment, and lack of a home field played a large part in harassing the Bears in their encounters. A With the completion of this season, the resignation of Art Smith as head coach also came. Art should he given considerable praise for pro- ducing Woodward squads under trying circumstances. This year, a new coach undertakes the position vacated by Mr. Smith. We wish him good fortune in the burdenous task which confronts him. First Row: Miller, Zahs, Koster, B.

The Bear thinclads faced a four meet schedule besides encountering several outside opponents. They met Libbey April 18, Scott April 25, DeVilbiss May 9, and Waite May 16. Coach Fetters, in his first year at handling Woodward track teams, has done an exceedingly praiseworthy job, considering the many handicaps that he faced. He produced .1 championship cross country team and rebuilt the track squad. Bill was greatly aided this season when many regulars, including members of the cross country team, showed up for the spring sport. Among the veterans that returned this year were Merle Romer, Bill Raczko, Harvey Cook, Louis Rabideau, Frank Hogg, Herville Haynes,Elwin Willick, Otis Perry, Earl Ford, and James Brubaker x af xi 'S 11 9 fl..

The plot ofthe clrziiiia, which was given entirely in Polish laiiguugc, is built about the inarraige of Tronibolinski, whose character was portrayed by Michael llsllodku. Ted Osial represented a judge in the play. Junior Play N MARCH 31, Spring Danceu was presented by tal- ented members of the junior class as their class pro- duction. Marilyn Gell and Nick Shemas portrayed the leads capably, with the excellent support of Louis Emm, Duane Donovan, Lawrence Bell, Betty Stadler, Irene Plicin- ski, Bertha Hascal, Sylvia Gottfried, Betty Vershun, Carol Brown, John McMahon, and David Baz. Young love and a school dance formed the basis of the plot of the play, which proved very amusing and entertain- ing to the audience. To Harley Lucas, senior, who served as student direct- or and general stage manager, to Miss Dorothy Kellogg who untiringly worked to achieve as perfect a production as possible, and to all members of the production committees, much credit is also due. LASS PLAYS COMPRISE A VERY IMPORTANT PHASE of the extra-curricular activities of the class. Each class every year attempts to present a production which will at least equal, if not exceed, the play given the year before. In this, they usually are successful because they have gained more experience in acting, directing, and choosing a play which will appeal to the audience. Too often, however, all the glory goes to the performers and no praise whatsoever to the students who work behind the scenes--those who plan the scenery, the costumes, the lighting, and the props and those who act as directors and prompters. For no matter how brilliant the character portrayal may be, without the efforts of a production staff, no play could ever obtain complete success. Class plays are an essential part of the social life of a school. Our hats off to all who take part in class presentations and especially to those who serve on the production committees! Senior Class ITH DOROTHY SWAYA, Harley Lucas, and Narcis- sus Lesniewicz in the leading roles, the seniors pre- sented their class play, The Late Christopher Bean, on Thursday evening, January 12. The plot of this produc- tion contained three of the elements of a good play, namely, humor, suspense, and love interest. Supporting characters were portrayed by Bonnie Jean Zirwes, Emil Scherer, Evelyn Moore, Allen Coleman, Bill Anspach, and Martin Blum. Each of these performers skill- fully characterized his role. Responsible for much of the play's success was the splendid work of student director Betty Mack, Miss Dorothy Kellogg, and the production staff. N I ayafrrf ITH IMPROVEMENT AS THEIR AIM, the members of the Saga staff of 1939 set out early last September to accomplish this goal. They have Worked hard and diligently to achieve their purpose. H Looking through the pages of this year's annual, it is evident that they were successful. Not only is one confronted with a more attractive Saga, but there are other marked improvements as Well. For the first time homeroom pictures were taken. The bigger and better senior K pictures are set in that pleasing college block B, W 'A 'Q-sw '-et A 'mf style and more room has been included for signatures. Richard Scarisbrick A comparison of the physical parts of the polar bear with the various Woodward departments was selected as the theme of the 1939 yearbook. Richard Scarisbrick capably filled the position of editor-in-chief of the Saga. His co-workers consisted of, Lorraine Barnes, associate editor, Malcolm Hogg, business manager, Paul Whiting, art edtiorg and Frances Hunsicker, assistant art editor, Loretta Ignatowski, circulation manager, Mary Jane Frankowski, senior girl editor, George Hope, senior boy editor, James Brubaker, boys' sports editor, Helen Trautmann, girls' sports editor, June Martin and Charlotte Henzler, club editors, and Roy Timmons, make up editor. Other staff members were Mildred Szofer, bookeeperg Sylvia Hirsch, typistg George Jaschke, junior editorg Horatio Jex, junior business manager, Helen Schiedler, junior circulation manager. By a year of labor and planning, the Saga staff has achieved a twofold purpose. In the 1939 Saga-Tattler not ofily a many innovations introduced, but also a clear cut picture of Woodward life is presented. ii Y , 'f it Q0 . as ,Q Ja, 'WH' Gi- , oo- 335- 35- Q6 sf 'Q' T' 'sf 3'l.,1,w' X x x n l 2 F a . - Y , R , Q7 MCMA OLDING A POSITION which requires skill in the management Qf individuals, Virginia ww A Skelding, editor of the Tattler, has proved her ability to obtain concentrated cooperation. The secret of her success may be explained by her ' amiable and cheerful disposition. Her sweetness, rather than a domineering attitude, brought forth the utmost of the staff's efforts. Virginia's originality and ability to Write articles in every field of journalism were displayed when she served as reporter in her junior year. As an editor, she may be described as earnest and pro- ductive. Energetic in spirit, she wrote more than her share of constructive editorials and headlines. NDER THE SKILLFUL GUIDANCE of adviser Mrs. Marie D. Ersig and ambitious editor-in-chief Virginia Skelding, the Woodward Tattler staff has each week succeeded in bringing forth a publication which serves as the eyes, ears, and mouth of Woodward. During the first semester while Mrs. Ersig was on a leave of ab' sence, Miss Edith Murphy ably acted as adviser. Credit in publishing the Tattler every Friday is due also to Hugh Montgomery, co-adviser of the Tattler, and to all the boys in the print shop. Pressed for time, handi- capped by lack of modern equipment, the Tattler students by their earnest efforts manage to produce this---a school newspaper, Written, edited, and printed by Woodward pupils. Other members of the Tattler staff are Lorraine Barnes and Bill Anspach, assistant editors, Rose Shemas, and Jeanette Levine, news editors, Bonnie Jean Zirwes and Jennie Payak, feature editors, Helen Trautman and George Hope, sports editors, Joe Sternialski, assistant sports editor, Rose Worshtil, exchange editor, Richard Semler, business manager, Elwin Willick, make-up editor, Bill Moores and Charles Sherman, pressmengand Jean Douglas, Mildred Hall, Phyllis Hendrickson, Dorothy Kinkaid, Bob Knoke, June Knowles, Sam Laderman, Agnes Leece, Clara Leibovich, and Rita Tertel, reporters.

Woodward Faculty Members End Happy Bachelor Reign During the summer two esteemed embers of our teaching staff took the Eiial step in ending their bachelor days orever--in other words, embarking upon the stormy sea of matrimony. The first was our Latin teacher, How- Lrd Phipps, who was married on June L0 to Miss Helen Louise Philipps in the vrivate home of the bride's grandpar- ents. It was a colorful wedding with Easter lilies and daisies, white satin, :andles, and the traditional formality 'vhich accompanies a sassiety event if this nature. After the reception, the newly mar- ied couple left on a motor trip through Eanada, New England, New York, and ennsylvania. The bride, a graduate of Scott High 'chool, studied at Michigan U., while Dir. Phipps graduated from Yale Uni- versity, where he belonged to Phi Beta Kappa honorary society. The second teacher to wed was Elmer Nohler, a newcomer last year, who eaches business arithmetic. Mr. Woh- r married the former Miss Helen Gu- Eu of Oak Harbor, Ohio. The couple ook a trip to Florida on their honey- noon. May the Tattler extend its heartiest :ongratulations and good wishes to noth of these members of the faculty md their brides.

FIVE INSTRUCTORS BEGIN WORK HERE Bill Fetters, Paul Lankenau To Aid In Coachingg Mrs. Crampton Changes Woodward has been very fortunate this year in securing five additions to its teaching staff. Miss Katherine Tobin comes here from Robinson junior high, where over several years she taught all grades through the ninth. She will meet classes in biology and general science in room 312. Miss Tobin says that the pupils in her classes impress her as being very courteous and orderly. Coming from Sherman school, where she taught mathematics, science, and music, Mrs. Eula Upp, room 346, thinks the freshmen are pretty grand. She pre- sides over classes in general mathe- matics. William Fetters taught in the schools of Attica, Ohio, before joining the Wood- ward faculty. He has been assigned to general mathematics in room 327. In addition to his classroom duties, he will act as assistant football coach and head track coach. Pm doing all right so far, stated Mr. F etters when questioned about his multifold assignment.. Taking Mr. Van Gorder's place is Mr. Arnold J. Brown, who formerly taught in Huron, Ohio. Mr. Brown finds the Woodward building, teachers, and pu- pils very satisfactory. He will teach general mathematics and algebra, and he will assist Mr. Meek by assuming the position of equipment manager. Paul Lankenau will be the new eco- nomics teacher in place of Mrs. Ruby Crampton, who has been transferred to the English department. He will also assist in football and basketball coach- ing. Mr. Lankenau, who comes here from the superintendency of schools in Ridgeville, Ohio,has taught continuous- ly since he was nineteen. In giving his impression of Woodward, he stressed the friendliness of the facult and the LOUIS RABIDEAU LEADS STUDENT COUNCIL CABINET AS PRESIDENT, Kathryn Schuler To Woodward Students In order to make Woodward High School a better, more beautiful, and a more enjoyable school to attend, the following rules have been adopted by the Student Council: 1. No student shall be in the halls during class hours without a hall permit. 2. Running, whistling, and all un- necessary noise is forbidden in the school building. 3.

PRINCIPAL POINTS - We are dedicating this, our first edition of the Tattler, to the in f f' coming Freshman class. We wish to congratulate each one of you on f your accomplishments to date and voice the hope that you are em- : 5 barking on the happiest and most profitable four years of your school 1 , QQ life. 'Qi 1 We hope that you are coming to school willingly and with the In 5 proper attitude of an open mind toward all your school work. gl' You and your parents have chosen the courses that you will pursue in high school. lf you are to succeed you must make up your mind to study hard and work constantly toward the goal you have set for yourselves. There will be many people all through your high school career who will take delight in trying to discourage you from getting an education. Before you listen seriously to such criticism check up on the critic to see if his background, ex- perience, and success in life warrants his advice to you. Remember that we have always had destructive critics. When Noah built the Ark some thousands of years ago, there were no doubt many of his wise and sophisticated neighbors who scoffed at him and his labors, yet the flood actually came and Noah's name is the only one of his time remembered today. If you have an ambition to follow a certain line of training don't be side- tracked by any difliculties that may be fn the way. The responsible positions in the world are held for the most part by men and women who had the will power to forego present pleasures and comfort fulfilling their ambitions. It is still true even in our modern times that The heights by great men reached and kept Were not attained by sudden flightg But they, while their companions slept Were toiling upward through the night. 636.64 K 9 Mr. Van Gorder s Departure Leaves Mrs. K. Schuler As Only Adviser With the coming of the new year, Louis Rabideau will preside over the student council as president, with Helen Trautman as vice-president, and Peggy Hammontree as secretary-treasurer.

F resh- man students will select representa- tives soon. Because of the leave of Henry Van Gorder, former coadviser of the student council, Mrs. Kathryn Schuler is the only remaining adviser of the student body. A new adviser to assist Mrs. Schu- ler will be appointed by Charles C. La- Rue in the near future. Mrs. Shuler commented that the stu- dent council was composed of excellent representatives, and that its main pur- pose was to make Woodward the most efficiently conducted school in the city. Advanced Dramatics Class Lures Fourteen Students Fourteen students are enrolled in Miss Dorothy Kellogg's first hour ad- vanced dramatics class. Letters have been handed in by students stating the field of work they wish to try this year. To perfect enunciation, the class is practicing lip, teeth, and tongue move- ments before a mirror. Backstage With Actors by Helen Ormsbee is the first book' to be purchased for assign- ments. In the seventh hour beginners class, 28 are enrolled in comparison with last year's thirty. Present plans are for choral readings. Nineteen students have reported for Mrs. Matheny's second hour oral expres- sion class. Radio work is the first assignment to be given.

Large Group Of Freshmen Gather For Early Meeting Approximately 920 freshmen met as a class of Woodward for the first time Friday, September 2. The new Wood- wardites were greeted by Principal C. C. LaRue who impressed upon them the advantages of an education. A Well behaved audience listened attentively while Mr. LaRue explained many particulars of our school system. He stressed these rules as the principal regulations of our school: No smoking in the building or about the groundsg no boys should wear hats in the building, no running in the halls. It was an- nounced that 19 features will be included in this year's activities ticket, which will sell for 32.50. Miss Annie Wetterman and Mr. S. B. Crouse, freshmen advisers, were in- troduced. Building permits and the pro- cedure to follow after having been ab- sent were explained. Mr. E. L. Bowsher was introduced and spoke about sched- ules and vocational guidance.

VVYYVV . ,..--we W- . . THE WOODWARD TATTLER FRESHMEN DEANS In the person of Miss Anne Wetter- man, dean of freshman girls, We find a dynamic personality and a knack of ac- complishing things. Even in her brisk walk, she emanates the idea of getting up and at 'em. In addition to her duties as freshman girls dean, she is also ad- viser of Spanish and German clubs, active organizations of Woodward. Miss Wetterman's policy for working is ap- parent in the motto which is promi- nently displayed in her classroom, The heart gives grace to every art. ii Although at times the brusqueness of this instructor causes tremors to pass down the spines of some wrong-doers, S. B. Crouse, dean of freshman boys, is admired and respected by all who know him. Besides his job as dean, Mr. Crouse also instructs the boys of Woodward in wood-shop work. He in known to possess a sense of humor which has given Wood- wardites many a laugh. Freshmen! ' Another Greeting A toast to the Freshmen! May we give you our welcome in addition to that of C. C. LaRue, which appears on the first page of this issue, and bestow upon you the wish that these next four years be the happiest in your life time land they, no doubt, will bel. There probably isn't one among you who does not have his secret doubts and fears at the new environment and the different routine into which you are entering. However, in no time at all you will become accustomed to the new scheme of things and enter in like a veteran. You'll find that the time will actually Hy by, leaving you with experiences stamped indelibly in your memory. In no time at all you will be saying, Remember when . . .,'l instead of a timid I wonder .... Of course every freshmen will come in for his share of being hailed as a ugreenhornf' and will receive his share of wrong directions from upper class- men, but then, haven't we all? New Teachers New Opportunities Each year, we receive new additions to our teaching staff. To this year's new- comers we extend a hearty welcome along with the hope that they will enjoy working with us. Seldom, do you meet an instructor who is uncooperative, or who does not enrich and broaden the lives of those among whom he works. And so we wel- come these opportunities to get fresh viewpoints on our school, and on our ways of doing things. Again we bid these faculty fresh- men welcome to Woodward, and look forward to the year of work and com- panionship ahead. 54 TRYOUTS REPORT FOR GRID PRACTICE Eight Lettermen, Sixteen Reserves Form Nucleus Of Art Smith's Squad Fifty-four boys greeted Coach Art Smith last week to begin practice for the forthcoming Fort Wayne game to be played Saturday, September 17.

Also suffering injuries is Marion Hes- ser, who tore the ligaments in her hip as she was about to step into a boat. She must remain in bed at least two Weeks. , -A ..l ...rm M --..............r,..,-,....-...., Woodward isn't just the name that is given to these four walls surrounding halls and classroms, but it carries with it a certain spirit or idea which those who know Woodward experience when. gVoodward is mentioned or thought o . Woodward is a place where ambi- tions are created, encouraged, and often- times realized. Woodward is a place where the idea of Americanism has a true meaningi Persons of various nationalities atten this school and they have been accepte graciously. People of Woodward hav risen above the idea of racial prejudices realizing that people are individual and not factory-made replicas of eac other. . 4 Woodward is a place where democl racy isn't just talked about or gazed at through a silver crystal, but a plac ' where it is exercised. Money isn't a influencing factor in this school to plac students in prominent positions. Intel ligence and personality are the qualifi cations for these responsible positions Woodward is a plaoe where compe tent instructors are willing to give thei upmost aid to students who are eage to increase their education. Teacher are here to help the students. They ar appreciated and respected. Woodward isa place where friendli ness and courtesy are the secrets of success and the keys to many joyful friendships and experiences. , Woodward is a place where there is no room for breaking the rules and horseplay. Not only are these dis- tasteful acts frowned upon, but the persons responsible for them are repri' man-ded Httingly. Certain necessarji rules have been constructed for the benefit of the student body as awhole, and the same are not made just to be disregarded by an irresponsible student who thinks only of himself. Woodward is a place where the good of every student is considered, and not just the well-being of a small group of mollycoddled students. Woodward is a place where there is democracy, justice and opportunity not for just a few, but for everyone---a truly typical AMERICAN school. But don't get me wrong, I love Holly--I mean you can't get me wrong because I like Woodward and I know you'll like it too.

Clubs To Meet After School During A Trial Period Of Six Weeks Mrs. Opal Barley, office head, will aid Principal C. C. LaRue, this year, in the extra curricular activities. Her specialduties will be the checking of treasurers' reports, and the booking of dates for skates, dances, and other assemblies. Club sponsors met last Wednesday, when it was announced that for a trial period of six weeks all clubs would be scheduled to meet after school hours, preferably Tuesday or Wednesday. Student and faculty opin- ions will be recorded by Mr.- LaRue at the close of this trial period, and a permanent policy will be adopted. When the new schedule is com- pleted, it will be distributed and pub- lished in the Tattler, and it will fol- low the former schedule as closely as possible. All clubs will be scheduled for a third hour at the beginning of next week, in order that sponsors may explain the purpose of this new ruling. In a statement from Mr. LaRue, we quote: We want each club to have a con- structive program for the year, so planned as to give each member some- thing constructive to do, so planned as really to develop the mind, person- ality, and cultural background of the individual member in accordance with the original purpose of his club. We feel that the boy or girl who really wants the club work will find a way to attend, but we stand ready to help solve individual problems of attend- ance. Club sponsors voted in favor of carrying on the all club dance, the Shekel Shuffle, with Floyd Lords pre- siding as general chairman of the event. Further plans and announce- ments concerning the dance will be found in an early issue of the Tattler.

K Q - Music, Maestro, Please HIS year, as in previous years, olasses in band, orchestra, and glee club are of less than average size. There is no social shortcoming, for our very background tends to indicate a decidedly musical background. A In past years a number of accomplished student reason for this musicians neglected to join our orchestra, either from a feeling of superiority or from simple indifference, whereas one should contribute his musical ability to produce an artistic achievement together with the other members. It is an accepted fact that the true test of a musician depends on whether or not he is able to blend well in a group. As for the personal advantages of belonging to one of these organizations, it is quite evident that self improvement and cultural advancement will come gradually. Then, too, there is a chance for public acclaim, as each of these groups puts on at least one performance during the year. Of course, either of these subjects is considered a full unit. If any of us has musical ability, let us join one of these classes now to help make our musical pro- gram the best in the city. Economize, Buy An Activities Ticket , ITH everyone looking fornew ways to econo- mize, we know you'll welcome this oppor- tunity to save and still be able to attend al- most every activity in Woodward this year.

We're Glad To Be Back, Woodward gg ELCOME back is the friendly message all Woodward sends to returning soph- omores, juniors, and seniors. Notwith- standing the remarks ofafewcynicto the contrary, . nearly everyone's answer is I'm glad to be back. For second and third year students this coming year should be one of serious work intermingled with lighthearted play. The seniors' joy is dampened slightly by the realization that this is their last year of high school and their last chance to gain honor in Woodward. L......m.n. .... ,. inquiring Reporter Flashes From Friends F Should the name of the Tattler be changed to Tatler, the traditional spelling? Mr. LaRue- Yes, I've always been in favor of chang- ing it. Miss Hannah Shaw- Change it by all means! It has always annoyed me. Miss Mable Rutan-'tSince the spelling Tatler does not change the pronunciation, I think it ought to be spelled right. Mildred Boehler, senior- I don't think it should be changed.

In Our Library Northwest Passage, by Kenneth Roberts, is bril- liant, yet painstaking, incomparably vivid in narrative, yet well documented, knit to the historical record by every link of event. However, even the interesting plot and flashing action are overshadowed by the authoris magnificent, though overstressed, character analysis of Major Robert Rogers. Rogers is a hunter, fighter, strategist of the wilder- ness, and leader extraordinary of Rogers' Rangers. Langdon Towne, young artist, map maker, and nar- rator of the story, accompanies Rogers on an errand of extermination. The doughty Rangers tramp through endless marshlands, harassed by a pursuing body of French and Indians. At St. Francis they strike quickly, wiping out the hostile Indian settlement. Then comes the thrilling story of the march homeward, of the fort- itude of the tattered, wounded, starved Rangers and the heroic resourcefulness of Rogers. This part of the book is the finest example of narrative power in con- temporary American fiction. Later, Towne's star rises, leading him to England on his artistic career. But pitiful indeed grows the case of the once mighty Rogers, who dreams of a way, a 'iNorthwest Passage, through to the Orient. Under the strain of civilized life, the wilderness leader cracks, becomes a drunkard, a gull for his treacherous friends, a gambler, a cadger for small sums of money, and finally a prisoner in Newgate. There is a happy ending for the ambitious and romantic young Langdon, but not for Robert Rogers. Though interesting as a whole, Northwest Passage should be read mainly for the stirring narrative of the journey to St. Francis and back.

On The Set A After a great debate, the Hollywood motion pic tures have moved to Woodward High School, wher there are the prettiest girls and the handsomesi oys. Below are some of the changes: William Phrebe and Katherine Maier play the leads in Boy Chases Girl. The Life of Louis Pasteur is portrayed by Sam Schwartz. The picture deals with a great scientist who bravely eats hot dog after hot dog to determind the effect of mustard on the digestive system. Edward Williams was selected to play the part of the big wind in Hurricane . The head of Donald Krell was used as a prop in Dead End. ' A test was made of Howard Phipps to use in the current picture, The Devil is Driving. A studio asked Oscar Wexler to enact the role 05 the monster in 'tFrankenstein. But his home lo informed him they would sue if he did not finish the picture Dracula, Two track stars, Dorothy Kincaid and Jim Bru- baker, are now beginning Love On The Run. Charles Seim was recently sought to teach Dopey in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs? how to act. Stand-in Perry Martz, is now working for Boris Karloff. A prominent Woodwardite's dress was used in Alexander's Ragtime Band. Do You Realize That--- Teaching school is not just a bowl of cherries. In order to enter the profession, a course in modern. management must be taken. Training schools make a tremendous point of psychology and sympathetic understanding of child nature. When students are given teachers they do not particularly like or have some prejudice against,they4 have the tendency to Qrebel against anything the teachers may suggest for their benefit. Instead they should cooperate to get the most out of the course of study. No teacher is perfect, nor is anyone else. They all must conduct their classes somewhat formally! Being the first ofiicers, they represent a system that requires conformity. Work isthe item they must concentrate on and as much individual guidance as they have time for. If at any time you feel that your teacher is being unfair, just remember that in your class there are about 39 other students to be considered whereas you have only one to please.

The unusually large Freshmen enrollments are largely responsible. The same method of dividing the classes will be used as in previous years. The single A and double AA groups will again engage in skills as rope climbing, track, etc., while the triple AAA group will be allowed to choose its sport. The towel system, a great success last season will be used again. Gym students will be required to pay a small fee for which they will receive towels for showers. Two sanitary workers, employed by the W. P. A. program will have charge of the lock- er room. ' In order to enforce the gym pro- gram, pupils neglecting to appear during their appointed gym hour will be penalized and forced to stay for an after school class. GIRLS CHOOSE SPORTS Regular playing started in the girls' gym this week, with single, double, and triple A students having a choice between luckey, soccer, and hockey to play. Freshman classes will be taught schlag-ball for their first event. Games will be played outside whenever weather permits. Every girl will have gym twice a week, except the ones who will serve as leaders. A regular gym class is not compulsory for them, but they must assist the teachers at least twice a week. The regulation blue and green suits will again be required as the standard gym outfit. Locker assignments have been issued during the last two weeks. For a fee of sixty-five cents, each girl receives her lock and locker and towels for showers. Girls who neglect to be regular in their gym attendance will receive penalties from their class dean. VETERANS RETURN William Fetters Will Coach Harriersg Initial Meet Is September 21 Five experienced veterans of the cross-country team and a like number of tryouts reported for the first time this year to Bill Fetters, their new coach. At the meeting held Thursday, September 8, the following boys ap- peared: Harvey Cook, Richard Dur- ham, Otis Perry, Louis Rabideau and Elvin Willick, Captain, who are the vets, while Bert Gass, George Jasche, Herville Haynes, Ronald Scherer and Bob Smith, the newcomers. Merle Romer will again manage the team. In regard to the prospects of this team, Mr. Fetters stated that the future was largely dependent upon the amount of work accomplished by the squad. Besides the city meets and the Northwestern Ohio District Meet, Mr. Fetters would like to have Woodward compete with Bryan, Lima Central, and Fremont Roses High or go to the High School Invitational Meet in preparation for the above-mentioned district meet. All of the cross-country meets will be held at Ottawa Park beginning at 3:15 p. m. Woodward's 1939 schedule is as follows: September 21-Waite. September 28-Libbey. October 5-Open. J October 12-Scott. October 19-DeVilbiss. Dope Corner Friday and Saturday marks the dates of the opening games for city grid teams as they take the field against foreign opponents in tune-up contests prior to the starting of the city football league. Since not much is known of the opposi- tion, we must rely on past records in order to approximate the winner. Waite plays host to Rossford, their ancient rivals and as usual will take their opening contest from the Bulldogs. South Bend's Riley High will tussle with Scott in the South Side stadium, Saturday evening. Scott will come out of the onslaught the victor, but only after a fierce struggle. Two Cleveland teams, Glenville and Central, will be entertained by DeVilbiss and Libbey, with the Tigers finishing a winner while Libbey chalks up its first loss of the season. In the other grid tangle, Central meets Steele High in Dayton, Ohio, Friday night. With their heavy, experi enced team, the Irish will return home with their first win. Lankenau, Fetters Reveal Sports Records Paul Lankenau, economics teacher, and new coach of the lightweight team, grants interview. After playing football at Defiance for two years, he was also a two-letter man at Bowling Green and obtained two degrees. Mr- Lankenau has had plenty of coaching experience, having coached football at the Steubenville, Ohio, high school. and a girls' basketball team at Malinta, Ohio. Altogether he has coached for eight years. He served as athletic director both at Steubenville and at Valparaiso University in Indiana. Commenting on our varsity he thinks there will be no stars but that our teams will be hard to stop if they work as one unit. He continues to say that prospects for the lightweight team look very bright with 107 candidates with which to work. Mr.Lankenau stated that he enjoys his work here at Woodward. He is married and has a boy five years old. Bill Fetters, new world history and general math teacher, first saw the light of day in Watertown, New York. Besides his teaching he will act as track coach and as assistant football and basketball mentor. He attended Scott Hi, where he participated in lightweight football and track. He attended Oberlin College a while and then switched to T. U., where he ob- tained his B. S. degree. In college he played end on the grid team for two years' guard on the basketball team, and ran the quarter and the hurdles in track. Before coming to Woodward he was at Attica, Ohio as coach of football, basketball, baseball, and track. He also taught English and physical education on the sideline. He has twelve juniors and seniors out for the cross country, and he thinks they will go far in the district meet. Bill is married and is the father of two children, a boy and girl. FORT WAYNE SOUTH in WoodWard's Polar Bears will pry off the lid of their 1938 football pro- gram tomorrow when Captain Ted Nowak leads his team against the highly-touted Fort Wayne South squad at 2:30 in the afternoon. The con- test is to be played in the opponent stadium. Last year, the Bears avenged the 18-0 defeat handed them in their first encounter by turning back the Fort Wayne gridders. 7-0. Fort Wayne will probably outwefight our boys by a considerable margin, but with de- ceptive running and hard tackling, our eleven hopes to again turn the tide on the big lads. Coach Art Smith, assisted by Dave Mac Murray, has decided to give the returning lettermen and experienced players starting assignments. At left end will be Bill Cummins, former re- serve star, while Lloyd Cates, a new- comer from Granville, Ohio, will hold down the right fiank. Due to the loss of Charles Mac Farland, former cen- ter candidate, through a broken ankle, Chuck Lyman has been shifted to left guard and Ted Nowak to left tackle. Bill Hadelder will begin at center and will receive Lyman's aid, if necessary. On the right side of the line are Dan Nowak at guard and Roger Staebler at tackle. Polar Bear Gridders Begin Seyen-Game Grind Sept. 17 With the opening of the 1938 season the Woodward Polar Bears already are facing tough competition as they jour- ney out of town to play the first game with Fort Wayne.

She stated that our orchestra needed practically everything in the way of instruments. However, she mentioned specifically violins, cellos, clarinet, a bass horn, a trombone, a French horn, an oboe, a bassoon, and drums. A symphony orchestra , said Miss Werum, contains about one hundred members. Of course a school orches- tra can't have that number but can be well balanced with less. Miss Werum agrees with Mr. Sut- phen in her preference for the symphonies of Beethoven and Tschai- kowsky. i l l Mr.2Guy Sutphen Guy Sutphen, Woodward's band leader, announced emphatically that the band needs trombones, French horns, and clarinets. It is my experience , said the genial director, Uthat a well organ- ized band has forty-eight or fifty members. Mr. Sutphen began his musical career in a little Ohio town, over forty years ago at the age of thirteen when someone handed him a clarinet and told him to play it. He learned by ear and afterwards learned the notes. Later he joined a circus band. If you don't learn music in a cir- cus band, you never learn it, Mr. Sutphen declared. Since then he has directed all kinds of professional bands throughout the country. Mr. Sutphen found it difiicult to name his favorite composer from so many, but specified Beethoven and Tschaikowsky. He is very fond of Beethoven's lovely Moonlight Son- ata. U Q i Clarence Ball, director of high school glee clubs in Toledo, is a grad- uate of Depauw University. He has taught in Toledo schools for twenty years. The ratio of parts in a well- balanced chorus, stated Mr. Ball, is about twenty-five Sopranos to fifteen altos, to eight tenors, to twelve basses. Lawrence Tibbett is his favorite vocalist, and he likes especially to hear the Prologue from Pagliacci.

Miss Dorothy Kellogg Sponsors Greater L. T. G. Miss Dorothy Kellogg Miss Dorothy Kellogg, popular L.T.G. adviser recently spent eight weeks in Ann Arbor studying at the Michigan University. Her studies included two radio courses and a speech teaching course. The radio courses consisted of writing plays, casting them, rehears- als, and finally broadcast over W. J. R. Miss Kellogg participated in four such broadcasts. ProfessorHoldstad, author of one ofthe best books on play produc- tion, was one of her instructors. By next summer, Miss Kellogg will receive her M. A. degree in speech. Miss Kellogg's worst experience: One day the class was assigned to go to the anatomy labratory to study the voice box. Upon arriving they discovered a corpse on an operating table. The pro- fessor of anatomy then proceeded to remove different parts of the body, such as the larynx, lungs, trechae, and epiglottis. It proved to be such a hor- rifying ordeal that one of the men fa man, mind you, and not a womanj fainted. During her stay, Miss Kellogg lived in an apartment, where she took an extra?? course in cooking. Members of the Little Theatre Guild and the playshop have joined together to form one club, the Little Theater Guild, advised by Miss Dorothy Kel- logg. During the past two weeks, sen- iors and juniors have been invited to join. Next week will be Sophomore registration week. Election of officers will take place Monday. Cabinet members and chairman of committees will compose the executive board, which has charge of all business sessions. Miss Kellogg stated that she will direct five plays this season: the senior class play, the junior class play, the sophomore classplay, the L. T. G. play, and the Thespian play. The L. T. G. annual banquetwas post- poned last sp-ring, but plans are under way to hold it this fall. an.t,...L..u.. . ,.., ..

An alert Student Council. l Q -l I The Tattler on behalf of the student body wishes to extend deepest sympathies to Ruth Lee on the death of her father, and to Leon- ' ard Sparagowski on the loss of his mother. Again... The Question Arises O WE want movies which are educational only? Do we want those which do no more than en- tertain? There were murmurs of disapproval last year from the lips of Woodwardites who were displeased by the caliber of the pictures presented to them. As one of the most important duties of the Tattler is to reveal the sentiments of the students, and to secure their opinions on just such questions as these--we leave it to you. What type do you want? Undoubtedly, if enough students express their desire to have more movies of the same type and quality as Les Miserables, A Tale of Two Cities,f' and David Copperfield, which are both educational and entertaining and which also tie up with the subjects studied by high school students, these are the kind we will get. Let us have your opinion! To Be Or Not To Be--- T HAS recently been announced that all clubs are to hold their meetings after school for six weeks. At the end of this trial period a decision will be niiade regarding the permanent policy to be follow- e . Those favoring after school meetings offer strong arguments in defense of their viewpoint. They feel anyone who is sincerely interested in club work will make an effort to attend the meeting while any individual problems of attendance can be satisfac- torily solved. This will eliminate members who are not willing to parcipate in a constructive club program. Looking at the other side of the question it is plain to be seen that many students who other- wise would take part in club work will be unable to because of conflicting activities. Work after school, busses which must be caught, athletic prac- tice, and inta-mural contests will seriously interfere with club meetings and will exclude fromuclubs many worthy students. Think this over and decide which course will be best to follow. Remember student and faculty opinion will play a large part in the decision which will be made Let s make it a wise decision A Health Hints This is the time of year you get your first cold. To prevent: l. Stay out of doors at least one hour a day. Keep windows open in the home. . Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables. 2. 3 . Eat sparingly of pie, cake, candy, and other sweets. Take at least two external baths a week. 4 5. 6. Be sure to have at least one internal cleansing daily. 7. Drink plenty of water. Treatment in first stage of cold. . 1.

Keep windows open. If cold does not improve with this treatment, see your physician. 6. 7. 8. WHO? A kind elderly man with twinkling eyes, To whom we all dread to say good-byeg He's watched former students pass through the door, To rise to the top, by the knowledge they bore. He isn't the kind to lament or storm, His friendly smile is always cheerful and warm, If work goes unfinished, to make time for play, 'Tis the students who'll suffer with the break of day. Neatness is essential in the subject he offers, Little does he care for manicures or coiffures, You've seen this loved man in a study hall, too, Just try to remember those nice talks he gave you. Who? Why, Mr. Skinner, of course. Streamlined History After reading ,many history books, a few Wood- wardites have decided to remake history. Here is how they would do it in 1938 fashione- lt was acold, damp, foggy night. Suddenly, in the old church tower burst twin lights. The British were coming by land! Roy Winn as Paul Revere jumped into his streamlined car,jammed the accelerator to the floor and sped away. The British are coming , he screamed into the microphone. Out ofthe shrubbery jumped two British officers on their motorcycles and with sirens at full blast, they screamed after him. After capturing him, they offered Revere a spot 0' tea and took him to a show. l U U A shot thundered out, Abraham Lincoln, Albert Shulman, slumped to the f'loor. The house was in a panic. But Albert rose from the chair and gleefully ex- claimed, I'd be a goner if I didn't have my bullet proof vest on. lk Ill i Harold Miller as Little Georgie Washington was chopping the cherry tree. Snap-crackle-pop! And the tree fell. His angered father severly massaged his face and asked Harold, Why did you do it?

Short Story It was a cold, dreary day and Michael Flannagan assistant news editor of the Yorkville,Daily Press noticed with a look of' dismay that a drizzling rail had begun to fall. Well, he'd lay aside his worls and go down to Joey's for a little card game befor' turning in. As he reached for his hat, he was star tled by a knock at the door, and he hastily slipper his small revolver into his pocket, patting the fire arm reassuringly. No one was going to outwit ai Irishman. Peering into the darkness, he uttered 1 sharp cry as his eyes fell upon a beautiful, bu somewhat forlorn girl, seeking shelter from thi downpouiing rain. Quickly he drew her inside, and prepared fresl coffee and tiny cakes. Slowly the story came out How her drinking husband had abandoned he: after three years of unhappy married life, leaving herpenniless and alone. The Irish in Flannagan re belled, as he cursed the unknown man into his grave for such a cowardly act. Presently the refresher girl rose to go, and as she did so, Flannagal pressed a fifty dollar bill into her hand. Feeling somewhat depressed, Flannagan contin ued on his way to Joey's where he related thi tragic incident of a few minutes ago to his fellov newspapermen. To his utter astonishment, the boys laughed uproariously crying, So, the hart Mr. Flannagan has never been outsmarted? Wh! we know who your ladyfriend was, Mike. She is Lily Garnetto, the greatest emotional actress or the Yorkville Stage. Just another Corrigan, eh?' Mike, remembering the fifty dollar bill, replied Yeah, but Corrigan's mistake was a profit to his pocketbookf' Dear Diary Monday morn---Just another blue Monday, bu what-ho, who belongs to that cute profile frame in the window pane?

F THE WOODWARD TATTLER WOODWARD CHALKS UP FIRST WIN, 20-7 3en Langlois, Bill Cummins Score All Three Polar Bear Touchdowns When the Polar Bears defeated South 5ide's gridders at Fort Wayne last Sat- irday, they had to overcome a bad case if jitters before they could hand the Breen and White their second straight retback. The Bears took the field and ntered the game with a feeling that South Side was intimidating them, but ,s the nausea passed they romped to in impressive 20 to 7 victory. Several fumbles and a blocked kick waved the way for South Side's touch- lown late in the first quarter. After a Bear kick was blocked, South received he ball on the Woodward four yard ine, from where Fatherlee, South half- iack, carried it over in two tries Cap- ain Beidenwieg converted from place- nent. Midway in the second quarter, Wood vard worked the ball down to South's 9 yardline, where Ziggy Kaminski fad- ed back and heaved a pass to Bill Cum- nins, who stepped off the remaining en yards for the Bears first touchdown. Kaminski then placed his kick between he uprights to knot the count. No scoring was accomplished the hird quarter as the defenses stiffened, rut Woodward found a weak spot in he left side of South's line and drove o the eleven yard line, where Benny langlois crashed over the goal line tanding up. Langlois also converted he extra point to make the score 14--7. Just to make the victory more im- fressive, the Blue and White added a nal touchdown when Ted Gosciniak's ne run-back of a kickoff and Bill Haif- lder's blocked kicked set up the sit- ation for Ben Langlois to go over the ist white stripe, making the final count ead 20 to 7, Woodward. The game was an even affair with Voodward losing 20 yards as the result f the only two penalties in the game. The Bears line proved invincible to he Fort Wayne team to the extent that Louth didn't make a first down in the nal three quarters of play. Fort Wayne ompleted one pass good for 3 yards vhile the Bears made good two passes. lill Haffelder made the only intercep- ion of a pass in the game. No team member deserves individual ecognition for they played equally well s a unit and proved themselves ready Dr city competition. Woodward Fort Wayne iumrnins ..............

BEARS ATACKLE LIBBEY FIRST INTRA-CITY TUSSLE SLATED FOR TONIGHT IN COWBOY STADIUM Opponent's Attack To Be Centered Around Dick Houston, Bears Expected To Display Power In Offensive Drive The Kickoff - - - How Will It End? The whistle blows. Eleven strong Woodward gridders face eleven equally strong Cowboy opponents. A tense crowd of spectators anxiously watch as the foot of the kicker comes into con- tact with the ball to begin the game. Such will be the situation tomorrow night when Woodward invades the Lib- bey stadium to begin its city football schedule for the year. Who will win? It is too soon to predict the outcome of the Bear squad this season, but a victory for the blue and white tomorrow night would be an influencing factor for the remainder of the games on schedule this year. A victory would be important to the seniors especially, for this year is their last year as students to have an opportu- nity to see Woodward win a city foot- ball game. There are two schools of opinion as to how Woodward can avoid the cellar this year. People of one group argue that ifthe team had the support of the school, it would win games. Still others reply to this that if the team should win a few games, it would have the support of the student body. Thus the problem confronts us. Last year Woodward gained the honor of having the scrappiest team in the city. With everything considered, so far this year all indications of the team living up to this honor are apparent. So, students of Woodward, let us be the ones to take the initiative in this vital situation. Let's give the eleven our complete suppsrt tonight a n d show them that we're with them all the way. Letf Be There Victorious Gridders Return In Best Of Spirits Twenty-six Polar Bear gridders, ac- companied by Coach Art Smith, Bill Fetters, Equipment Manager Brown, two managers and a sportswriter, de- parted from Woodward last Saturday to journey to Fort Wayne, Indiana, for a tussle with the Green and White squad of South Side. The trip of 106 miles, taken in a large Community Traction bus equipped with a radio, was a rather sullen aH'air, with everybody worrying about the size of the opponents, whether or not Mr. Meek arrived safely, etc. Upon reaching Fort Wayne, we drove to the Y. M. C. A. where the players set- tled down to a light meal consisting of two poached eggs, three slices of toast and a choice between cocoa and tea. A brisk walk was taken around a small portion of the city in order to loosen the players and work down the effects of the lunch. After touring the spacious school, the boys took to the dressing room of the air-conditioned building, and pre- pared for the on-coming tussle. A half- hour work-out was taken and the Bears returned to the school for instructions from Art Smith. The game started at 2:30 p.m. and ended two hours later with the final tabulation recording a 20-7 win for the invading Polar Bears. A happy, over-joyed grid team repaired to the dressing room, and, amid con- gratulations, cheers, and shouting, hasti- ly made ready for supper. As usual' Creeper Burke was the first one ready while Ziggy Kaminski held up the fes- tivities for fully ten minutes. Back to the Y.M.C.A. and a supper consisting of a steak about as big as the platter, potatoes, carrots, salad, coffee, milk, rolls, apple pie,ice cream, etc. We were then given 45 minutes to roam the city and do anything we pleased. Several boys busied themselves mak- ing a sign for the back of the bus, while Jim LaPlant and Bill Cummins showed their billiard skill in the Y poolroom. Still others walked the city streets and gandered at the very, very pretty scenery, if you get what we mean. fAsk the delegation of Ben Langlois, Lloyd Cates, Chuck Lyman, Roger Staebler and Ernie Bankey about it.J Returning home we listened to cheers sent up by Ted Gosciniak, Len Rawski, Bill Raczko, and Art Pieron. Al Davis, of course, slept the entire distance while Bernard Shaw, Bill Haffelder, George Jacobs, Oscar Heimann and John Myneder only managed to get a few minutes sleep with the intermingled yells ringing in their ears. Charlie McFarland was silently cursing the cast on his foot and the rest of the boys looked at a copy of Click The welcoming portals of Woodward were finally reached and everybody de- parted to their homes ina happy frame of mind. 1, . mln ..r.i3:Lzirq,jQ3'fN.,fr,'..f,-.ra ..l,-L.....,. ,. yr, if The official opening of the City Foot- ball League will take place in the Libbey Stadium this evening when Woodward's Bears and the Cowboys tangle-at 8:30. ' This game will undoubtedly be the center of attraction in the city football circles above all other contests, for it brings together two evenly matched teams in the line of size, weight and experience. Both teams had their first taste of real competition in their opening games last week. Woodward handed Fort Wayne a 20 to 7 set-back and Libbey decisively defeated Cleveland Central, 32 to 0. Libbey's attack will be centered on their one and only hopeful, Dick Huston, triple threat halfback. He has shown considerable experience and is a fine open field runner, having much speed and deception. It is anticipated that the Bears will use the same mode of attack as was displayed against Fort Wayne last week.

The boys, under the supervison of El- mer Wohler, will practice every third hour until the games are played. Anyone wishing a post as cheerleader may see Mr. Wohler in room 254 at any time for information. Lightweight Squad Suffers First Defeat On Grid Season The boys who are practicing regular ly with the Bear Cubs are Shimman Miller, Boes, and Eurenius at ends Cychler, B. Burns and Baz at the tack lesg Tucker, L. Burns, Myneder, and Johnson at guards, McCaughtry and Poddany at the center postg and Jex, Tima, Widlund, Koster, Krell, Potts and Remer in the backfield. Last Friday the lightweights suffered a 26-0 at the hands of the strong Liberty Center varsity, who have been the Northwestern Ohio league champs for three years and are picked to repeat. Coach Paul Lankenau points out Don Krell and Swede Widlund as the out- standing backs, with L. Burns, and Bob Myneder as leading candidates for line positions. Coach Lankenau expects to have a strong team on the Held when the Cubs tackle the Libbey lightweights next Friday after school on Wooward's grid- iron.

ANDERSON BECOMES NOTED POETESS Miss Anderson Miss June Anderson, art teacher, has recently been honored by having eight of her poems published in Poetry House Anthology. She states that although she wrote little rhymes when very small, it was not until she was out of college that she began to save her work. Since then Miss Anderson has written from 75 to 100 poems. To write I must be in a quiet mood with no school work to worry me, she said. Her favorite American poet is Emily Dickinson, and she considers Browning her favorite of the older English writers. When asked her views about modern art, Miss Anderson stated that she is not particularly in favor of a surrealism type of art although she thinks that it is justified. It requires a great imagination and not very many people can appreci- ate it. 'fl believe in free technique, she de- clared, but there should be enough form to give the idea. Miss Anderson likes the work of Picasso for figures and of Cezanne for landscapes. An Ode To The Tree As graceful as the fawn at bay And gracious too, He beautifies our homes and hills As few things do. Winds gossip much to branches spread, It is ignored. He shelters all who seek his shade, A worthy lord. A fearless trust in you and me, We should be friends, A steadfast strength to pattern by And make amends. A life as real as yours or mine, But Wiser for, Seeing much but keeping counsel For the bar. June Anderson VOX POP Salute! Dear Editor: What is the matter with our Nan. ti-Woodward students? Why do they think that our school is inferior to other schools? What fun do they find in hypocrisy, wearing blue and white and openly condemning our school? Woodward students have many things to be proud of. VVe have some of the finest instructors in the city, the best, gymnasium, music room, and hospital. Our cafeteria service is beyond reproach and our 240.3 students are kept orderly by our class deans and fine Student Council. We have a good band, orches- tra, glee club and dramatic society. Our library is complete, and Wood- ward is the only Toledo school which boasts a Weekly paper, edited and printed by our own students, and with- out the aid of advertisements. And surely one could not ask for a fairer, more genial and more considerate principal than C. C. LaRue. Aren't these reasons sufficient to warrant a cheer or two at our football games, and a word or two in acclama- tion of Woodward to all those who choose to ignore us? ' Let's put Woodward on the map by showing Toledo that it has an institu- tio11 of learning worth acclaim! Jean Douglas Live And Learn Dear Editor: At the beginning of every year when pupils get their schedules, the sight of certain teachers, names causes them to fly down to Mr. LaRue's oflice and shriek, Oh my! Oh my! please change my schedule. When asked why, the students may stammer, Why everyone says that she is hard. If someone told those same persons to jump in the lake, they probably would! I am in the class of one of these hard teachers, and I find that she is one of the best teachers I have ever had. We don't study cut and dried booklearning, but up to date events and thoughts. Most of this teacher's pupils, after a week or two with her, have a broader outlook on today's news. They see the subject from many viewpoints, for they are being taught how to think for them- selves and how to express their own opinions. There are too many easy-resistance students in Woodward and too many who cannot think for themselves and so listen to everybody else, even if those . . so-.1 L . r.- Third Annual Hi-Y Meeting To Be Held September 24, 25 The third annual Hi-Y--Friendship conference will be held at Camp Storer, September 24 and 25.

Enemy of Malicious Gossip SURVEY POINTS OUT SCHOOL PROBLEMS Reveals Personal Contact With Problems Makes Deep Impression Through recent surveys, it has beer revealed that personal contact witl school problems makes adeeper impres sion on the student than informatioi received in the classroom. A practice has already been begun ir modern education to emphasize practi cal rather than theoretical methods 0 study. Several colleges and universities hav' followed this plan and are offering stu dents opportunities for closer relatioi to the problems which confront them. A group of social science students o Colgate University are studying opei ation of the government. Reports havi been made of the fact that Washington D.C. is no more expensive than Hamil ton, the site of the University. At New Jersey College for Women courses are using as laboratories thi museums, theaters, concert halls, mun icipal courts, and hospitals in the citie. surrounding the college. Students in Montana State Univei sity are given every opportunity fo practical application of their theoret: cal studies in the world outside tht school. As a result of taking students of the campus in this way, we are taking the cellophane wrapper off collegi courses, said Dr. George Schmidf chairman of the educational policies committee of New York. Through field trips, student worl is on reality and we are able to breal down academic isolation, he added. Senior Pictures To Be Taken In Photo-Reflex Studioi The Saga staff has already had tw- meetings in which they have discusse- plans for this year's Saga.

Students' Inferior Department Noticed Dear Editor: Has anyone ever asked you why Woodward students are so destructive? Have you ever wondered why the rep- utation of'Woodward has been lowered in the past years? Have you ever asked yourself why street cur conductors and bus drivers say, Here come the canni- bals, when school is out? As represen- tative of the Woodward Student Coun- cil, I shall try to convey toyou one rea- son. On the return trip from Libbey high school Friday, September 23, I was ashamed to mention to the Western avenue bus drivers that I was a student of Woodward .He stressed that he didn't mind if they screamed so loud it could be heard five miles away, but when it comes to destruction of property some-5 thing must be done. Freshmen and soph- omores were the majority of students on this bus. They tore down advertise- ments, broke the strips of tin which held signs in position, and pulled the 4,0331 .Aa ia... ia.. .. s. Yan..- .... -Aga qhhgm... yi i ..s..'g...1',.1 buzzer so long it was necessary for the driver to shut it off. The act which dis- graced this school the most was the disrespect for older men. A couple of elderly gentlemen had to walk five or six blocks back to where they wanted to get off, decause of the rudeness of our students. I ask the Tattler, because of its opportunity to inform students when they are degrading the high standard of former years, to do its utmost to preserve the reputation of Woodward. I do not write this letter to kill any fun students may have, because there isn't a boy or girl in Woodward who likes to have fun better than I. But precautions must be taken immediately to preserve Woodward's high stan- dards. The Community Traction com- pany has threatened to discontinue service to and from all games ifnothing is done. Let Woodward students take immediate measures to preserve their self-respect and the respect of the community. -Richard Semler. ANNUAL DISCUSSED BY SAGA MEMBERS R. K.

SHE'S all right, but l'm going to vote for Alice. She's more fun. Did you see her at Grace's party last night? VVow! Alice is a good kid. I'll probably vote for her too. Each year when class elections come up, some thing like the above occurs. But what difference does it make whether Alice is a good kid or not? What is important is, is she efficient? Is she capable of holding a class office? Has she shown by former activities that she is a competent leader? The officers that we select to hold class position should be ones that bring respect and honor to the school, oliicers that havea high academic rank- ing and a capacity for the work which is to be thrust upon them. With all these things in mind,1et's go to the polls and vote for the most deserving students. For This, We Thank You GAIN, THIS YEAR, through the sponsorship of the Student Council, new hall permits are being purchased for Woodward. Obtaining these passes is just another of the countless things for which we should be grateful to the Student Council. Woodwardites, let's show our appreciation to this organization by taking good care of the new wooden permits. Thanks again,Student Council. Courtesy, Defined And Analyzed CC OURTESYQ' defined by Webster to be polite- ness combinedwith kindness, brings home the fact that more of us might pay stricter attention to the kindness half of that dennition.

Dave Weisberg loved the students all, He heard their laughter through the hallg And I have thought how good it seems That we may try to uphold his dreams.

Woodward will find no setup in Mar- in Harding which promises the Bears stiff tussle. Harding High has beaten 'pper Sandusky 32-O and is reported 1 have a team as strong as the Libbey owboys, who handed us our first de' rat. The Bears,who have showed up splen- 'dly against outside competition, are hnfident of chalking up their second 'in of the season against the outsiders. Coach Art Smith, preparing for ough going on the downstate march, as juggled his defense to secure the rongest combination possible. Pro' ble replacements will find Lloyd ates substituting at right end, right uard Pieron getting the call over Dan 'owak, and McKenzie filling Staeblers osition at right tackle.

Printed rules were distributed and discussed under the leadership of Miss Catherine Mc' Clure. The first meeting of girls who are in' terested in intra-murals will be held Tuesday, October4. Freshmen girls are especially invited to attend. It will be decided before or at this meeting wheth- er or not teams will be organized ac' cording to classes or in the usual manner. New yellow markers have been made for team members to 1 wear. Hockey players have been supplied with shin guards, while archery enthusiasts have been playing with new bows and arr- ows, and will soon have two new arche- ry targets at their disposal. Game Highlights Libbey made two other touchdowns which were nullified due to offside and holding penalties. 'lf X if Just in case you forgot, the score was Huston 26 Woodward 12. 1 l U John Marinelli has shown a great improvement in his baton twirling over last year's performances. l 11 1 The game wasn't all Huston. For there was fine blocking on the part of his teammates on each of his touchdown jaunts. K i H Injuries also played a large part in defeating the Bears. Among the players who received injuries were Chuck Lyman with torn ligaments in his left leg, Bill Haffelder with a bruised nose. Porky Nowak with a sore ankle, and Mike Annelo with two black eyes. Melvin Zukowski Is Awarded Ticket To Waite Encounter A free ticket to the Woodward-Waite grid clash was won by Melvin Zukowski when he guessed the score of the Bear- Cowboy encounter as being 26-13. Due to the Marion Harding game be- ing played out of town tonight, there will be no score guessing this week, so you score guessers can begin thinking of the outcome of the Polar Bears- Indian game next Friday nite. WOODWARD, 26--12 Cowboy Halfback Scores All Four Touchdowns To Hand Bears First City Defeat Diminutive Dick Huston lived up to his reputation as a classy, deceptive halfback when he chalked up four touch- downs last Friday evening to lead the Libbey Cowboys to an impressive 26 to 12 victory over the Polar Bears. Huston crossed the goal line once each quarter in the first game ofthe city foot- ball league which put Libbey on top as undisputed holder of first place. He made runs of 13, 15, 18, and 35 yards for all of the opponent's markers. Woodward managed to score two touchdowns, one inthe first quarterand an otherin the last. The initial touch- down was practically a present as a Libbey back let a kick slip out of his hands,onlyto have a Woodward man fall on the ball on the one yard line. Benny Langloiscarried the pigskin over in two tries. Ziggy Kaminski, who was sent inthe game in the hnalquarter, tore through the Libbey line with smashing drives to cross the goal in the Bears' only other touchdown thrust. The Bears suffered greatly the loss of 103 yards by penalties. Libbey was also penalized heavily but not as much as Woodward. Bill Cummins was outstanding on the line because of his consistent tackling and fine offensive work. Ziggy Kaminski also played well during his short tenure in the backfield. Polar Bear Cubs, Gowboys Open Lightweight Season When the Woodward Cubs take to the gridiron against Libbey light- weights, the Polar Bears probable start- ing lineup will be Boes and Eurenuis at the wings, Baz and Cychler at tackles, Bortek and, L. Burns at guards, with Myneder at the pivot position. In the backfield there will be Jex at quarter, Tirna and Remer at the halves and Widlund in the fullback position. Other boys who are most likely to see action are Miller, Williams, B. Burns, Krell, Shumman,Poddany, Zaks, Raczko, Johnson and Hens. Woodward lost their first contest of the year to Liberty Center while the Libbey lightweights were victorious over the Junior Order team. The game will be played on Wood- ward's field at 3:00 tonight. Daredevil Drivers Shown Daredevil Drivers, starring Richard Dix, was shown today third and fourth hours in the auditorium. As an added attraction the two-reel comedy, 'My Pop, featuring Henry X Armetta, was presented. l Intra-Mural Program To Be Launched Monday Homer Hanham When the intra-mural teams meet in their first games Monday after school, they will be playing football of the six- man variety.

Dope Corner The prominent intra-city contest scheduled for tonight is the Libbey-Cen- tral fray which promises to be an excit- ing battle. Both teams have come un- beaten so far, the Cowboys trouncing Cleveland Central and Woodward, Cen- tral 'overcoming Dayton Steele and Tif- fin by sizeable margins. The Irish backed up by their heavy defense and veteran backfield have an edge over the Cowboys and should in- vade with success. Libbey also has a fine backfield and will count on Dick Huston, piston-legged halfback, to sup- plement the odds. Scott and DeVilbiss supply the other week end attraction when the two squads come to grips in Scott stadium, Satur- day night.The Bulldogs are out seeking to avenge the defeat handed them by the Tigers last year and are confident of turning the tables. Waite will have its hands full when the Indians match their strength against a Sandusky eleven tonight. Sandusky has beaten Collingwood and tied Elyria to date and is expected to afford the Indians much opposition. .. . , g t, 1 . ff -as 1 , F nf Q f R 'J ,- I ..

What the T stands for, we shall never know, for Virginia insists that her mid' dle name shall remain a deep dark se. cret. But just between you and me, l'l1 wager itys Terrific Virginia hopes to make journalism her life work, and considers Tattler work a serious step toward her goal. She stated, Although the Tattler is often a worry, I like it very much. Speed Skelding, as her co-workers named her, is an active member in the Zets, French Club, and the Honor So- ciety, besides attaining an A scholas-- tic record. I Tennis, which Terrific learned to play this summer, is considered to be ai fine 1 sport by her, especially when Charles Burkhart is on the other side of the net. Althouli in Virginia's estimation, Burkey has no competition, there are plenty of fellows who would like to be considered as such. A charming personality and a helpful attitude are characteristics which win Ginny many friends. Her constant' companions are her pals, Jane Riker, imp1sh Bo nnie Zirwes, and 'fvivacious Rose Shemz s. We may expect much from our young editor in the future. A native Toledoan is Richard Scaris- britk, editor of the Saga, who was born on August 9, 1921, at St. Vincent's hospital. Swimming, baseball, and skating are rated among the leaders in Dick's choice of sports. His hobby is stamp csillectiigg. 'The Saga, Dick claimed, has had two innovations added to it so far this year, the homeroom pictures and more room for signatures. When quizzed about his life work, he replied that he intended to study engi- neering in college, but that he hadn't decided which college he would attend. He is an avid swing fan, Tommy Dor- sey being his favorite maestro. He en- joys reading the current best-sellers, ex- pressing a liking for Kenneth Roberts. A girl, to win Dick's interest, must be either a blonde, a brunette or a red- head, for the young chap definitely de- clares that he likes them all. And can you blame him? This popular lad may be seen almost every lunch hour trek- king about the halls giving the girls a break, with George Hope and Bill Ans- pach. With his pleasing personality and a sense of humor, the Hi-Y, Quill and Dagger, and the Honor Society are glad to have his participation in their res- pective groups. But who wouldnyt be glad to have this effervescent youth as a friend. Dick is welcome anywhere. W VOX POP Justice? Dear Editor: When the news came out that clubs were meeting after school, I was greatly disappointed because it is a handicap to the Adams 'Fownship students. It is not a matter of cost for transpor- tation for most of us but it is the means of transportation that bothers us. We would be late at home, some not reach- ing their home until 6 or 7 o'clock. We have to transfer to Dorr line down- town, go to the end of the line, and wait, sometimes an hour, for a Toledo and Indiana street car. They run so ir- regularly that one cannot plan on the time to get home. Your mother cannot plan on a certain time for supper thus mixing up things at home. I think that if it is decided to hold club meetings after school, it will be altogether unfair to Adams Township students. An Adams Township Student. Courteous? Dear Editor: Why are so many students such cow- ards? Why canit students carry on a pleasant conversation while the teacher is out of the room? Is it necessary for them to throw erasers, wads of paper, spit balls, and make such ungentlemen- like figures? Why are they so afraid of the teacher? Even if the teacher does come in and find a distasteful sight, what can she or he do? Maybe a penal- ty, maybe school expulsion. How can people be so low? Can't they realize they're losing their own self-respect? Why can't these people be more manly and lady like? Indignant. A Rebuke Dear Editor: It is my opinion that the cafeteria is far too crowded fifth hour. And it is so much filther than an eating place should be. Garbage wrapped in paper is thrown around the floor and left on tables, where as it should be put into the con- tainers. lf some pupils could con-, veniently be changed to sixth hour lunch I think that the cafeteria would seem a more inviting place. Of course if this cannot be done, the only thing left would be to find some way to enforce cleanliness during both lunch periods. Sophomore.

Lightweights Lose Initial Game To Cowboy Seconds The Woodward lightweights lost their first league contest to the Libbey sec- onds by the score of 12-7 in the game played on home field last Friday after school. The Cowboys scored first early in the game on repeated off-tackle slants and and end sweeps. The try for point-after- touchdown was bad. After this Hrst scoring the Libbey backfield was com pletely bottled by the the Bear Cubs forward wall, and the Bears carried the plays for the last three quarters. Woodward scored in the second can- to when Jim Tima broke loose and scampered across the goal for the Bears' lone touchdown. He also converted by placement. . The final points were made when a Libbey man returncd one of Tima's punts for a touchdovw n. The fry for ex- tra point again failed. The starting lineup for Woodward was Boes and Eurenuis at ends, Baz- and Cychler at tackles, Bortels and Kos- ter at guards and Myneder at the cen- ter post. In the backfield were Jex at quarter, Tima and Remer at halves, and Widlund, fullback.

Will you be there? Every Woodward student should attend this affair ifhe possibly can. Since it is intended to be an all-club dance and nearly everyone belongs to at least one organization, all must cooperate to keep it an all-club dance and to make the Shekel Shuffle a social and financial success. Choose Wisely, Woodwardites OON Woodward students will be faced with the problem of deciding which club to join. Con- sidering the fact that there are so many differ- ent types of clubs from which to choose and that each pupil may become a member of only two, it is most important that every person joins the right organization in order that he may enjoy participa- tion in the club program. Many students join certain clubs whose work does not interest them, perhaps because one of their friends belongs to the organization or for some other silly reason. Then, too, how foolish is the individual who joins two literary societies or any two clubs of the same type! Remember, variety is the spice of life. Let's be wise, Woodwardites. Make an intelli- gent decision about which club you join. Uphold the clubs you choose! To Whom It May Concern S ONE of the most important questions of our junior and senior years, the selection of the class cabinets, has been decided, we may turn our attention to the committees that will be chosen to plan the various events of these two classes. Without a doubt every junior and senior wants their class play, the kid party, the hick party, the J-Hop, and the senior prom to be rip roaring successes. The first step toward this goal will be in our choice of competent, hardworking committee mem- bers, members who will take their jobs seriously. This shouldn't be hard, considering the attitude of a good number of upper classmen. Many are eager to make the year a big success! So come on, juniors and seniors-let's go places! It is odd how the increase in the num- methods of operation Last year we start ed out with about two thousand pupils We were able to get them comfortably in two assembles we had several vacant rooms that we used for club meetings, and s- - ' home room groups could be shifted so that club sponsors could be relieved to meet with their clubs the third period. Now our enrollment is nearly twenty-four hundred. This extra four hun- dred has caused quite a change in our affairs. We can no longer have all pupils in two assemblies in the auditorium. When we have the symphony orchestra play for the whole school we shall have to divide into three groups so that every pupil may have a chance to enjoy this music. There are only two rooms availa- ble for club meetings and our classes are so full that the third period groups cannot be shifted to other rooms to allow for club meetings. So whether we like it or not ,we are being forced to hold our club meetings after school. Our large classes bring other problems too. Teachers cannot allow as much freedom in a large class as in a small one. Therefore every pupil must be quieter and better behaved than ever before. In equalizing these classes we sometimes are compelled to move pupils from the classes ofteachers they have chosen to others. This is unpleasent for everyone concerned but again there is nothing that can be done about it except be good sportsmen and carry on as best we can. We have at least got under way with all our work. The teachers report that pupils are eager to learn and are finer in their attitude than ever before. All this is encouraging news. We are looking forward to the best year we have ever had. -X ., 1 5, -,Q ber of pupils compels us to change our r e i riar ' p- Q' 1 Student's Soliloquy To study or not to study---that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to learn The narr es and dates of your history lesson, Or to turn your back against a sea of assignments, And by opposing them, go places---have fun--- On the other hand by studying we say we end The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks, Of flunking a test--'tis a relief devoutly to be wished. But to date! perchance to dance! Ay, there's the joys For at that dreamy Trianon what romance may comeg That's the respect that makes a calamity of so much homework. But who can bear the whips and scorns of Miss Rutan, Miss Wetterman's frown, and Miss Cronk's reprimand, Or Mr. Phipps's deadly ire held in straining leash. Yet, there are the pangs of a neglected love, the gang's delay, The insolence of the one and only, and the spurns That patient study of algebra brings. To grunt and sweat under a silly conjugation, And there's the dread of that grade after the test, The unfathomed disgrace from which there's no re- turn, Thus homework does make cowards of us all.

Avg., THE WOODWARD TATTLER POLAR BEARS TAKE SUCCESSFUL TRIP Big Horse Counting Contest 1 Waged Between Annelo And Ziggy Kaminski 1 A Polar Bear team replete with joy nade the trip to Marion last Friday to engage in battle with the Harding Pres- dents, climaxed their journey with avic- zory, and returned home with their eyes anxiously set on their next tussle with Waite's Indians. ' The excursion went something like Lhis: We departed from Woodward at 1:30 rm. Friday and began the jaunt to our 57 mile destination, Marion, Ohio. Rid- .ng in the large Community Traction ius was somewhat enlivened by the game of counting horses waged be zween Mike Annello and Zig Kaminski' Phe delightful contest drew nearly :very occupant's attention, especially ifter a photo finish determined the Ninner to be Ziggy by a small margin. Upon reaching Marion, we traveled :hrough the cfity to view the beautiful i-Iarding memorial where our twenty- ninth president is buried jointly with mis wife. A junior high school football game attracted us and we watched the :ussle for fifteen minutes which saw Ientral winning over Edison 8-0. A light lunch, preparatory to the game, consisting of two poached eggs, :hree slices of toast, and a choice be- :ween tea and cocoa was offered at the Elotel Marion. We then traveled to the Football stadium, where the players :limbed into their uniforms. In the hour and forty-five minutes that ensued, the Polar Bears hung up victory number two in a game that found Woodward on top by the score of 12-6. Harding fans showed their fine sportsmanship by bringing a lard can full of hot dogs to the players after the game. Although hampered by injuries, several players forgot their pains and nearly mobbed the hot dog man as they delved deep into the container. After setting to a meal of French fries, salad, a pint of milk, buns, apple pie, ice cream. and a 40 square inch steak, we were allowed 45 minutes to see what we could see. As usual, Bill Cummins, Bill LaPlant, Chuck Lyman and Jack MacKinzie hunted out a pool room as the others lounged around the hotel and wrote letters. Once more on our way, a majority of aoys drifted into slumberland while 'Whistlin Doc Kuron's incessant jib- aering kept the boys in the back of the aus awake. Arriving in Toledo at 2:30 Saturday morning, the gridders were greeted by Art Smith's command to report in the norning for practice. So, instead of counting horses,every- Jody trudged to his respective home to count sheep for a few hours. i Dope Oorner i Toledo high schools face another busy schedule for the weekend. Of the four iome games slated, Central and De- Jilbiss have the initial contest. Both :lubs are equally matched and a tena- :ious exhibtion is anticipated when the awo squads tangle tonight in the Tiger irena. However our bet is on the Irish no come through with a win. Libbey plays host to a scrappy eleven 'rom Montpelier at the Cowboys stadi- 1m. The Cowboys, prepared for a rough stampede, are confident of retaining zheir undefeated standing. Still rooting for the home teams we- 'avor the Scotter to set back the visit- Jrs from Streator, Illinois, in their Sat irday fracas. Mass Meeting Is Held Wed. The Waite mass meeting took place .hird hour last Wednesday. Activity Licket holders were admitted to the neeting free. It could not be held Thurs- lay because of the movie given for all aistory students. 1 HARRIERS CHALK UP THIRD STRAIGHT WIN Bears Maintain Undefeated Record As They Trample Fremont High 23-34 Woodward's cross country team chalked up their third consecutive vic- tory of the year as they ran 05' with high honors at Fremont Ross High school, Wednesday, 23-34. Although Sewell of Fremont came in first, the Bear harriers placed Jaschke, Perry, Rabideau, Willick, and Cook to put themselves in the undefeated column. Woodward's runners were handi- capped by running on a cement course which proved inferior for them. How- ever, a new course record was set when Sewell covered the course in 11:19. In beating Fremont, the Bears inflict- ed the first loss that Ross has had on its home course, Next Wednesday, Woodward will risk their undefeated record w. hen they face a strong Bulldog te im from Scott. Scott was recently defeated by Libbey in an inter-city meet. Bears Lose Valuable Player Knobby Haffelder injured The Polar Bears lost their first string center when Bil Haffelder fractured his jaw in practice this week. This in- jury will prove a terrific loss to the team as Bill's work was outstanding in every game. Mike Kaczorowski and Ted Gos- ciniak are the leading center candidates at present. Chuck Lyman, whose in- jured leg has improved greatly, may also get a try at the center post. Students Play Hookey So far this year there have been nine VVoodward boys who have been given fourteen penalties apiece for inexcus-- able absences Lhookeyi. Colds have been the reason for many absences among students. Fourteen junior and senior girls have obtained working permits, as compared to eleven junior and senior boys with permits. Rose Shemas Earns Medal Rose Shemas, senior, recently re- ceived a medal for being a member of a winning girls' doubles tennis team. She played in the tournament at the Bay View courts. BEARS HUMBLE FIGHTING MARION SQUAD 12-6 TO WIN SECOND GAME Johnny Myneder Snags Zig Kaminski's Long Pass To Score Deciding Langlois Plunge Touchdowng Benny s For Six Points. A fighting Woodward team showed their heels to a stubborn Marion eleven in ithe second canto of the out-of-town engagement last Friday evening, to come from behind and win 12-6. By virtue of this win, the Bears handed the Presidents their second loss of the season in addition to chalking up the ir second victory ofthe 1938 grid schedule. A . Ni Less than three minutes after the ' Harding Highlights Several of the players decided upon looking up Marilyn Meseke, recently chosen Miss America, who resides in Marion, but gave up the idea when they learned that she was in another sec- tion of the country. A crowd of approximately 3,500 watch- ed the contest from the stands, while another 1,000 saw the fray from the outside of the fence. n ni il Marion's 62 piece band presented an amazing spectacle with their elaborate black and red uniforms with brass ac- cessories. li- ll K The Woodward band's mascot, Patty, went over big with the Marion fans. S D U The football team wasntt minus a cheering section, for the band and sev- eral Woodward students sent up sever- al yells which were nearly as loud as the Harding cheers. K K I Novel score cards were passed out to the attendants free of charge. If i U Ted Gosciniak failed to make the trip because of his injured elbow. Al Davis substituted and did F fine job at fullback. Society Holds Initiation Zetalethean Literary society initia- iou will be held Friday after school at the Wilson Park Shelterhouse. All old and new members must attend. Those accepting invitations to join the society must have signed up in room 120 before the end of school today. zoo GIRLS LINTERESTED iN INTRA-MURALS Miss McClure Approximately 200 girls, who are in- terested in joining intra-mural teams: met in the auditorium last Tuesday. The meeting was presided over by Kathryn Braunschweiger, G.A.L. presi, dent. She introduced Helen Traut- mann, Betty Jane Roth, and Esther Bloom, who explained intra-murals, general requirements for getting a letter, and the social activities of the club. It was announced that team lists should be turned in by Thursday, Oc- tober 6. Miss Catherine McClure and Mrs. Stella Harre will have charge of all intra-mural games. Health cards are to begin next Mon- day. These cards must be kept by any girl who is working for a letter. They may be obtained in the gym office in Mrs. Harre return for a down payment of a dime toward dues. A party for all new members of the G.A.L. is being planned. WH girls will have a Halloween party at the home of Shirley Keller, who is also chairman of the committee, and who will be assis- ted by Dolores Kokocinski, and Vir- ginia Krulikowski. After the business meeting girls were permitted to organize into teams. Games will be played as soon as a sched- ule is made out. Soccer will be played by all the teams except the freshman, who will play schlog ball. At a recent meeting of the boy's intra- mural managers, Stanley Klap wa s elect- ed president of this group. His staff consists of Eugene Zychowich, vice- presidentg Harry Pietras, secretary- treasurerg and David Lacey, reporter. game began, the Presidents w orked the ball to the Bears' 20 yard line, from where Frazier dropped back and heaved a pass to Clark for the firsi score of the game. The try for the point from place- ment was wide ofthe uprighis. From this period until the mind e of the third quarter, an exchange of punts ensued, Woodward gaining the advnnu ge. Hard- ingis safety man was so confused by the altitude and length of Benny Langlois' kicks that he failed to return one punt more than five yards in the entire game. At the begining of the thno quarter, Woodward kicked badly to Harding on the fifty yard line. On Mai'ion's first play, Cummis recovered a fumble which eventually led to the Bears first touch- down. Kaminski led the drive to the 20 yard line, where the Presidents held and kicked to the Woodward 48 yard marker. Kaminski again toted the ball to Harding's twelve in two dashes, from where Langlois carried the pigskin over in two off-tackle smashes. Woodward missed the attempted conversion. Haffelder Intercepts Pass With five minutes remaining in the final quarter, Bill Hafielder intercepted a Harding pass and ran the ball to the Marion 45 yard stripe. Woodward's first play called for a pass, which was completed from Zig Kaminski to John Myneder for the deciding six points. The pass travelled approximately 40 yards, and Myneder ran the remaining 15 yards for the score. The Bears again missed the try for point after touch- down. Marion's futile attempts for a touch- down through an aerial attack were diminished 9. y Woodward alert second- ary. 1-Iarding's eleven averaged 160 pounds with Higdon presenting the bulwark in the Marion line with his 205 pounds. Few penalties were infiicted in the hard-fought game, which found Wood- ward using a revised line-up due to in- juries received from the Libbey game. Shaw and Pieron started at guards, Davis entered at fullback, and Myneder 1 played over three quarters ofthe tussle at right end. With their fine defensive work, Rac- zko and Haffelder deserve recognition, while Kaminski and Langlois ripped through the Marion line with smashing drives.

You didn't? Well, I did. Factis, I danced with her a couple of times. But that's beside the point. I just want to talk about Sadie. At a dance, skate or a party, Sadie may be found in any corner keeping company with the wall paper. You've guessed it. Sadie's a wall flower. Now she may not be the most beautiful girl but she's lo-ads of fun once you get to know her. The trouble is,no one has ever taken the trouble to become acquainted with her. And she remains miserable ever after. So that's the story of Sadie. But must we stop with Sadie? No need to. There are numerous girls like Sadie who are waiting to be discovered and get into the social swing of things. So fel- lows, it's your job to be the explorers and rescue some of these live wires from their frigid environment. By doing this, not only will you be making some one else's life gayer, but you will find that you have won the admiration of the fellows and girls with Whom you associate. Your friends will respect the fact that you are cour- teous and interested enough to pass up the chance for a dance with the most beautiful number there fwho can get any number of dancesj just because you love to see little Sadie Shew happy. So men, the next time you see some- one lurking in the back-ground of the fun, give her a break and you'll feel like a new man for it! German Club Initiated New Members In Room 118 Wed.

A few remarks were made by Donald Krell, president, and Miss Wetterman introduced this year's staff of officers. The initiation was followed by the serving of refreshments and the singing of German songs. LARGE GRUUP OF STUDENTS MAKE MARIUN TRIP Two bus loads of Woodward students left at 1:45 last Friday afternoon for an 87 mile trip to Marion, Ohio to see the Polar Bears line up against the Marion Presidents. A brisk autumn day and a blue sky presented a perfect background for the trip. Mr. and Mrs. Rohr, Mr. and Mrs. Sut- phen and Wm. Rohr were the chap- erons for a rollicking bunch of Wood- ward's supporters. Woodward yell and closely harmonized songs made the trip to Marion a jolly affair. A Tisket, A Tasket and We donit give a darn of the whole town of Marion were the most popular airs. Several card games were also carried on during the course of the trip. After a three hour drive which took us past the well known Carey Shrine, the outskirts of Marion were reached. Here the basses were met by a police escort fone policeman on one motor- cyclej who immediately led us to the imposing Harding Memorial. A hush fell on the group as the impressive white marble columns of the rotunda, sur- rounded with velvety grass, met their eyes. After duly appreciating this trib- ute to President Harding, the group was taken to the home of the Hard- ing's where we received the privilege of touring the home without paying any admission. Here again students felt a queer thrill as they viewed dishes which had been used at the White Houseg sleeves which had been worn by Mrs. Harding at the Capxtolg the chair in which President Harding sat at cabinet meetings: a locket containing a lock of Lincoln's hair: the briefcase in which the German Peace Treaty is said to have been carried: the smallest Bible and smallest New Testament in exis- tence. There was also a mamoth paint- ing of William Burr showing Harding presenting his first inangnral address. Each visitor was presented with sev- eral buckeyes which came from a tree planted by Harding 47 years ago. The trip and the tour of the city had sharpened the appetites of the boys and girlsg so we next repaired to the Hotel Marion where we feasted on a delicious steak dinner for fish if you preferred.J Following this the band marched to the Junior High School with other Woodwardites vainly trying to keep step to the double time march- ing. Here the Marion band, resplendent in red and black military uniforms joined us, and both groups proceeded to the Marion stadium, where we watch- ed our team squelch the Presidents by a 12-6 score. We were very proud of our sixty students. They completely out- yelled the Marionites. After the game we were delayed by a slight mishap to one ofthe busses fa tire minus airj. This permitted us to see and to congratulate our players after their truimph. Repairs on the bus were made and the return trip began. The bus driver made a warm spot for himself in our hearts when he turned off' all lights in the bus. Toledo was reached at 1:30 Saturday morning with everyone either yawning or already snoring. Things to be remembered about the Marion trip: the popularity ofthe candy which Mr. Rohr thoughtfully brought along---the fervor with which our school song was sung---the thrill of winning a football game-the many Miss Amer- ica's in Marionfwhich Bob Knoke, Bill Stein, and Johnny Marinelli very much appreciatedj--the raving of Kate Braun schweiger and Helen Trautmann about- Valparaiso University fit seems they met their football team!---the vivacious- ness of Mary Jane Szymarowskis-the angelic look on Iggie Ignatowski's facefwhen sleeping, that isj--the songs of Helen Maverkos--and the delight in seeing the sign, Toledo, Corporation Limits. VOX POP In Response Dear Editor: In reply to the Letter to the Editoi submitted by an Adams Township stu dent concerning the holding of clul meetings after school, I emphaticallj agree with the out-of-towner's sugge: tion in opposing this club action. Although I am not a club member,f feel it right to voice my opinion in thi: imperative matter which involves : majority of the student body. Firstly, taking the students of Wood ward as a whole, it would be unjust ti the many pupils who work, havi appointments, and to those who an needed at home. Secondly, for a like reason as thi Adams Township student's, the clul proposal would de unfair to the clul members who would have to transfe' from the rumbly Stickney line to thi North End. Furthermore, the proposer of thi: situation must not have taken intl consideration the assumption tha over half of the student body is con cerned in this matter. Then, what i this person's reason for holding tht meeting after school? I suggest that, for the good of th club population and club continuance we immediately repair to the forme plan of holding the meetings during third hour. A Very Much Interested Senior Do You Agree? Dear Editor: Boys and Girls of Woodward, whati happening? I take it for granted tha you have all seen the new hall passe! Are the hall guards blind? Why mus we pay for hall passes. I think al the students who attended the dance t- raise money for hall passes feel thi same about this situation. I fee ashamed to carry one in the hall. I an sure you will feel the same about it. Louis Remer A New Idea Dear Editor: Every morning some pupils are lat to classes or omit club meetings becaus they did not hear the bulletin. The teacher did not read the bulls tin, they lamely reply. Let the Student Coucil post the bnllc tin in a convenient place in each of th halls so that the students are directl, responsible themselves for absorbin the day's news. C.C.LaRue thinks the announcement so important that even if it cost arouni a dollar a day in time and money, h orders the bulletin printed every schoc day in the year.

HOW ABOUT IT I went to the game last Thursday ight, It was the Purple and Gold against me Blue and White. At first our team did very well, But then the weight of the heavier aam began to tell. Waite marched over the goal for a iuchdown. Then we started letting our team own. You could hear the boos and cynical amarks all over, Althougn the team was fighting ard-out on the clover. This seems to happen at every game- The kids will boo and act the same. Were you one of those too, Who started to jeer and boo? There's one simple little truth That we should learn while still in outh. Winning the game isn't the import- nt thing. It's whether in defeat you are able to ng. Can you take it when the going is rugh? Or do you lie down and cry enough, trough! So you see, don't act like a baby, For you'll win some day-maybe. Now go out and cheer for your team. Stomp, and cry, and yell, and scream And even if you never win, You'll be glad foa how brave you've een. You'll know yourself that you 'are ght And worthy of the colors blue and hite.

Maybe you canlt do A work, but you can try hard. Every teacher will appreciate your efforts and grade accordingly. During the next five weeks, let's show the faculty how really hard we can try. Then, when grade card time rolls around you can be sure there will be no F s. Let's heed the unsats. - Shame, Shame, Shame! NSPIRED by the well-known rhyme, we won't beat around the mulberry bush, but we'll be frank and get to the business at hand. There has been no need to have amplifiers to hear the uncomplimentary and unsportsmanlike utter- ances which have been given voice to by Woodward's own students in regard to our football record. It's a strange thing, but, at a game you will find these same people sitting, so to speak, with their teeth in their mouths and not making a sound to encourage the team and give them the fighting spirit which means so much. Strange, too, is the fact that if these people hear an outsiderurunning down Woodward or its team, they become exceedingly indignant. In the future, let's be consistent. Whether or not we have been guilty in the past, let's start with a clean slate and cheer in public and in private for dear old Woodward! Order Sagas Now! URRY! Hurry! Hurry! Don't be without the greatest creation ofall f?l time! Order a Saga- Tattler now, before the 900 books to be printed are all purchased. Come on, freshies, sophs, juniors, and 'specially seniors, get your Saga ordered today! ALL OUR YESTERDAYS The heavens grow angry, black rises in its face as it showers its impending fury on the world. A storm is brewing! A tornado uproots Woodward as it thrashes its way through the atmosphere. The pupils are jolted as the building heaves and groans and finally blops on the ground. Everyone rushes outside. The tornado has swirled them into France.Time has reversed. It is the year 1789. Art Marshall and Bill Burdo head the French Revolu. tion, crying Down with poverty Hang the poor people , Down with the widows and children . King Louie Sixteenth invited Marjorie Cowell and John Gunka to dance the latest swing craze-the minuet. Crowds jam to see the Black Maria take the fated prisoners to the guillotine. Rose Remer ascends the platform. The knife swishes, Rose just wanted to have he crust cut of her fancy sandwiches. Charles Brock appeared before the leader of the French Revolution. The leader scowled, placed his thumbs down. A roar as the angry crowd rushed in. A maddened, blood-thirsty crowd. They seized him! He was carried around on their shoulders as he won the checker contest. Classroom Classics Student, answering phone: Room 246. Miss Mc Donough: Louder.

Yet none of these know the history of the lowlj ive-cent hamburg. There lived in ancient Rome, a poor struggling actor named Hamus Punkus. Every week, he purchased a piece of pig mea which was to be his meals for the entire week. Before going on the stage, Hamus would take a large snap ofmeat so he could speak his lines better Once the piece of meat skidded out of his hands plopped on the candle footlights, and began to burn A sizzling odor seared his nostrils and he picker up the meat and ate it, because the meat would hav' to last the week. 1 Yum, Yum! Hamus quickly persuaded the othei actors to try it. A new dish was made! They namea the meat ham in honor of Hamus. Once home the other actors tried to prepare thl meat, and the hot ham burned their hands. lm mediately the new dish was renamed Hamburners.f Spreading through various countries, the Scotcll interpreted the name as Hamburgs. Hamus Punkus had a girl whom he wanted tu give up. He had met a beautiful maiden at thi K'Shekelus Shufiulusn dance. ' Reading in an advertisement in Roman Bladua Have you bad breath? he conjured up a brainstorm Quickly seizing a hfamburg, he chopped up onion and fried the dish. He ate it.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER lNIDIANS noWN BEAR GRID TEAM, 21 TO 6 'hree Touchdowns Result From Passes, Cummins Tallies Bear Score After holding Waite's thrusts at the ne for over a quarter, the Woodward ears were unable to stop the Indian's Kiss attack, as a result of losing its .cond intra-city contest 21-6. Entering the game with the hopes of uding their city league jinx, the Polar iear's goal was partially realized after e quarter of play with the North End- lils holding the upper hand. Wood- 'ard's line was so effective in holding ack the Indian's drives that Waite was xrced to kick for the sidelines many .mes during the first canto. However, in the middle of the second uarter, a Waite back tossed a short lass to End George Meis for the first core of the game. A pass resulted in Waite's second iarker, when Bob Hecklinger snagged pass and trotted over the goal line in Je third quarter to put the Indians in 'ont 14-0. Hecklinger again gained the spotlight the last quarter when he broke ay on an off-tackle smash and ran rough a broken field 55 yards for an- her touchdown. Captain John Long's ucated toe split the uprights three .mes to add the additional point-after touchdown. Mike Anelle, shifty back, entered the ame in the final quarterand did a fine ib during his short tenure as a ball arrier. Besides ripping off a nice 40 ard jaunt, he threw a 40 yard pass to ill Cummins for the Bear's lone tally. Principal ground gainers for Wood- 'ard were Zig Kaminski, Ben Langlois Gd Mike Anello. The Bears received ly 7 first downs as compared to I aite's thirteen. The Indians completed ve passes out of seven while Wood- 'ard connected twice in ten attempts. W0odward's line held brilliantly dur- g the first half but the final quarters W the backfield doing the majority of . e tackling.

'City Manager Brown, Ted Nowak Interviewd' The object of todays discussion is one A. J. Brown, known to the gridsters as 'Brownie' He is a six-footer and exerts a 180 pound pull against earths gravity. His hirsute adornment is an auburn brown and his orbs are blue. He is mar- ried, but has no childern. Brownie comes to Woodwardafter nine years of teaching experience at Huron,Ohio. He first looked upon mother earth in the little town of Dunbridge, Ohio. His high school days were spent at Bowling Green. A.J. received the B.A. degree at Capitol U. and the M.D. at Columbia. During his college days he participated in basketball, in which he was a two letter man. At Woodward he is equip- ment manager besides teaching alge- bra and general math. His hobbies are golf and photography, and he enjoys chorus singing and Bob Crosby's or- chestra. This fine instructor has been dubbed City-manager Brown by the football players. One of the most popular Bears on U' the varsity is Captain Ted Nowak, charging mainstay at right tackle---his second year gamboling about the foot- ball field---one of Art Smith's tallest lads, he rises 6 ft. lin. into the atmos- phere and lugs a hearty 185 lbs about the gridiron-likes to participate in all sports--favors football and basketball-- scampers about the basketball floor after the football season. Last attended Parkland school before entering our fair institution--has earned six letters-- hopes to have 10 before the year lets up -Machine Shop is Mr. Nowak's favorite subject with English heading the black list--intends to work after graduating-- doesn't know where yet--just loves a juicy steak smothered with onions--hob- by?--hasn't a regular, but we're sure the heat hasn't anything to do with his com- plexion when someone mentions a cer- tain Katherine--he believes this season's team is best in years--a likeable fellow and a fine football player. BEAR SECONDS WIN FIRST LEAGUE GAME Horatio J ex, Swede Widlund Score Touchdown sg Meet Waite tonight at 3:00 The Polar Bear Cubs entered the win column for the first time cf the current season by defeating the DeVilbiss Lightweights to the tune of 14-6. The Cubs first scored in the second after Boes, who played a fine game at end, fell on a Tiger fumble on the visit- ors forty yard marker. After two runing plays had netted only five yards, Tima faded back and chucked a twenty yard aerial to Jex, who ran the remaining fifteen to tally.' Tima converted from placement The score at the half was 7-0 in Woodward's favor. Woodward scored again in the third qarter when Swede Widlund took the ball on his own thirty-five and scampered sixty-five yards through right tackle, eluding all would-be tack- lers to score standing up. Tima again converted making the score 14-0. The Tigers only tally came in the third quarter after repeated passes carried the ball down to the Woodward five, from which point Cross carried it over. The pass for extra point was knocked down which made the count 14-6. Standouts on the line were Mirabello, Cychler Baz, Koster, and Myneder. In the Backfield Widlund played a fine game, both defensive and offensive, while Jex's lengthy punts were instru- mental in the Bear victory. Every boy on the Cub's roster saw action. The reserves play at Waite tonight at 3:30. Cross Country Squad Faces Scott In Dual Meet Tonight Woodward's cross-country enthusia- sts will be trying for their fourth vic- tory of the season when they meet Scott in a dual meet at Scott tonight after school.

Wi THE WOODWARD TATTLER GRAD GOSSIP To get some detailed information of former Woodward students, we have dug into William F. Rohr's mail box and procured the extract from a letter written by Stanley Kushman, graduate of '30, and Aleck Ewanchuk, classof '36. This is my last year at the Univer- sity of Detroit, and I am looking for- ward to getting my degree so I can go out job hunting. For the past half year I have been working for Sears-Roebuck and Co. I am in the heating and venti- lating department, and my job is figur. ing hert losses in homes, designing heating and air conditioning systems etc. I like the work very much, and I have made np my mind to stay with air conbitioning on graduation. There is a possibility of staying with Sears, bnt the future here is not very bright. I feel optimistic about getting a job, and am not worried too mnch about it. The last three semesters I have made the honor roll, and although grades don't make the engineer they are sometimes the deciding factor in getting a job. I will get my degree nine years after leaving high school, and that is a very long time to get a college education. Never the less, I am grateful to you for giving me the desire, when I was one of your students, to become an engineer, and I don't hesitate in saying that there are many others of your fonmer students that probably feel the same way. Alex Ewanchuck, class of 36 is at the U.S. Naval Training Station in Newport, R.I. He was enlisted on Sest. Alex writes that that tha moral standards are high and that the food is excellent. The future sailors wash their own clothes in their spare time as they put on an entire new outfit everyday.

PRESIDENTS RABIDEAU AND KRAMER TELL ALL VOX POP Louis Rabideau, energetic and compe- tent president of the Student Council, has at last fulfilled an optimistic par- ent's proclamation made on his birth- date, March 5, 1921, that he would someday be president. He is a former member of Lagrange school and is one of the few students who will readily admit that they love school. Louis enjoys all sports and con- siders Spanish as rating number one among his studies. As an important member of the cross-country eam he enthusiastically states, We expect to win the championship. The Student Council needs a more efficient hall patrol, and third hour is my greatest problemj' Louis claimed. His conception of the qualifications of a good hall patrol includes the follow- ing: Not absent often: stays by post and doesn't wander around hallsg alert for every passerby and generally reliable. After graduating from Woodward, Louis expects to study civil engineer- ing at the University of Toledo. ' Another president of Woodward is Verne Kramer, who was elected to the helm of the senior class. Of course this will be the best year on record, stated Verne. However, I haven't had a chance to get well ac- quainted with my cabinet? September 21, 1921, was the day that this brown haired, brown eyed person began winning friends and influencing people. He is a native Toledoan and Lagrange school is his first Alma Mater, Verne enjoys readnig biographies poeti y and popular fiction, and classed Edgar Allan Poe as his favorite author Among his other likes are comic movies, Basil Rathbone, Kathryn Hep- burn, bowling and oral expression. The new president also reveals that he is fond of classical music, Gilbert and Sullivan operas, and the interpretative arrangements of Raymond Scott. 4To all worried jitterbugs: we can safely assume that he is also a fan of swing.l Since the cabinet members have not yet met, committees and plans will be announced at future date, stated Verne. HEALTH HINTS Most headaches are caused from eyestrain, constipation, frontal sinus infection and nervous fatigue. Eyestrain is probably the greatest single cause of headache. . People suffering from eyestrain an aching sensation in readingg of headaches progressively worse, of smarting eyelids. When inspected they may have complain of eyes after which grow itching and the eyes are crusty lids, bloodshot whites of the eyes, and sties. Some other results of eyestrain are nausea and dizzinessg loss of appetite and indigestion, the result being ex- haustion: general nervousg muscular twitches of eyes and face, mental re- tardation. In this case consult a good eye s ecialist pConstipation is also one of our com- mon disabilities. Usually it means we are not following a hygienic life. To overcome constipation eat: a. Plenty of green vegetables and citrus fruits flettuce, cabbage, spinach, celerv, oranges, grapefruit, and etc.l b. Cracked wheat, corn meal, and bran. c. Drink at least eight glasses of water daily. d. Take exercises which will in- volve the abdominal muscles. e. Have a regular time for bowel evacuation. Frontal sinus infection usually starts from a cold. I If you have the chronic type of sinus infection, it is best to be always under a doctor's care. If the sinus infection is the result of a head cold, nose drops will help or inhalations of benzoin ftwelve drops to a quart of boiling waterl. In the case of headache from nerv- ous fatigue, find out the physical or mental reason involved. Remove this cause if physical, or adjust the mental outlook or as we say practice good mental hygiene and the fatigue will vanish. Blanche Brona Is Elected As President Of Fr.

Christopher Columbus Pays Woodward Suprise Visit While I was at the Shekel Shuffle Tuesday night, I noticed a distin- guished looking gentleman standing against the wall. He looked rather frightened by all the noise and com- motion of the Lambeth Walk, so I strolled up to him and asked if he was looking for someone. He said no, but that he would really like to know if he was in America and if the Indians had taken the country over again. I said no and asked why he wanted to know. The surprise of my life came when he quite calmly stated that he was Christopher Columbus and, although he did not want to sign any auto- graphs, he would like people to know he was in Toledo. He needed no urg- ing and kept talking. Chris is a swell fellow and proves that he is a pal of all school kids when he stated that he thinks there should be a whole week commemorated to him instead of one day. He enjoys swing music and is especially fond of the tune that was written about him. He is very proud of the numerous pictures and accounts of his discovery of America, even though it is another date and event to be memorized for examinations. Sievert Is P. T. A. Chairman George Sievert is general chairman of the P.T.A. drive in progress this week, in the Woodward distxiot of nine public schools. In La Salle and Koch,s department store there is a graph depicting the progress of the membership drives in the various schools. ' Teachers were solicited this week for membership. Question Dear Editor: . This is in response to the question asked by Lewis Remer as to the hal pass situation. The hall guards are no' blind and the new hall passes are z great help to them, but, for all thi money taken in at that dance I thinl. that we could have somethingbette: tr-an a section of a tree trunk, whern is all that money? A Patrol. An Answer Dear Editor: To answer Louis Remer's question Are the hall guards blind?,' I mus write down the reason for such hal passes. These new hall passes which every one sees nowadays were not put theri for the benefit of the hall guards. If any one thinks such athing, they had bette' have a talk with someone who knowi the right answer. What's the differenci if our hall passes are like Waite's? Isn' almost everything that is modern co ied from some foreign country or eve from our own nation? Our Student Cou . cil is not trying to invent something o trying to make history. They are jus endeavoring to make this school a plac4 of more joy, convenience, liberty, loyal ty, and justice. These hall passes an easier to trace if they are lost. So please, members ofthe Woodwarr student body, do not feel ashamed ti carry a wooden hall pass six inche. square, but feel ashamed if you are ou in the hall without one. A Member of the Student Council. A Solution Dear Editor, Frequent remarks have been heard 0 late in regard to the inability of Wood ward's cheering section to really yell fo their players. In former years our schoc has been noted for its loyalty to thi team even in defeat. Why is this ni longer the case? Is it the fault of the cheerleaders' Surely not, because they have no troubl getting results at mass meetings. Ari there then so few students who atteni the game? That surely isn't probabl after this year's record breakiug sale c activities tickets. ls it because our loyal tjydhas actually decreased! Heaven for 1 . Personally I think the trouble lies i1 the fact that we have destroyed th real student section. lntermingled witl the students are graduates and othe Woodward rooters, many of whom ar by the way, the ones who lower our re utation by drinking at the games. the Waite game, half of the student sat at one end of the field, while thi other half sat way at the opposite end Is it any wonder our cheering was weak It seems that some plan should be di vised so that only students can sit il the student section. The sale of studen tickets to graduates and outsider. should be forbidden. Let's see if W4 can't build up Woodward's cheering section to its former status at the top of the list. Helen Trautmann Urgent Complaint Dear Editor: Last week the same irksome situa tion that has provoked me in the year: I have attended Woodward began again that is the showing of inferior picture in our school. Time from classes is taken off by th. showing of these films, and if this tim' can't be made up in class periods i should at least be accounted for witl good entertainment. The averagi movies shown in the school are just : waste of time. Certainly, for people who are suppose: to have the culture and education o the students in mind, they aren't think: ing very much when it comes to thi selection of the movies they pass oh on us. Why can't this situation be remedied' It can if the persons responsible for the selection of the films will realize tha they should consider the student's de velopment. M. I.

My name's Eddy Editorial and I'm a right nice fellow once you get to know me. The trouble is I'm always overshadowed by my next door neighbor, Fanny Feature. She gets almost all the attention 'round here. My favorite hobby is f'detectiving. And say boy, I really know what makes this ol' school tick. I know all about the problems of the school---about the trouble Mr. Meek is having selling tickets, about the worries of Charles LaRue, and everything that's important. And am I selfish? I should say not! I share all my secrets. One of the honest-to-goodness reasons I do this though is because I need your help. I'm a pret- ty little fellow, and it takes all my strength to get around to investigate these cases. So instead of do- ing anything about these problems, I just hand them over for your supervision. I'm the dectective and you're the court. I'1l dis- cover what's wrong, and you consider the best thing to do about it. Stick with me, and Pll let you in on some of the snazziet reforms you've ever seen-.-real killer---dillers! Well, I got to hop-along now. I see something's amiss up on the third floor. X-29falias Eddy Editoriall signing off. About Intra-Murals NTRA-MURAL games are now in progress. Ev- eryone can't excel in sports. Realizing this, the intramural program was introduced. This program gives everyone a chance to play and affords healthful recreation for everyone. Let's participate in intra-murals. PRINCIPAL POINTS C? Ci' ,X President Harper, under whose super- X vision the University of Chicago became one of the richest endowed colleges in the world, was once referred to as a profession- al beggar. His reply was, I do not beg. My office allows me to invite the friends of Chicago University to enjoy the privi- lege of sharing in our workf' It is not our intention to draw any par- allel between our work here and the vast program of the University of Chicago. The money obtained by President Harper was used in buildings and in estab- lishing new departments in the university. Here we have the building, the equipment, and all the pupils we can conveniently care for, but there isa great need for aid to the pupils themselves. We offer your teachers, your parents, and your- selves an opportunity to help in keeping some worthy pupil in school. Our welfare department is getting far more requests for clothing and shoes than can be filled. Requests will increase with the coming of bad Weather. Children will be forced to stay out of school unless we help them. Do you want to share in this work? ???!!!???

Woodward was the first school in the city to have a double period in cooking every day of the school week. The distance around the three corri- dors of Woodward is 1M miles. Miss June Anderson, Woodward's art teacher, is contribuitng a poem to a book for the 1939 Worlds Fair. Woodward is one of two schools having a separate shower for each girl and boy in the boys and girls gyms. Our architectural drawing teacher, W. F Rohr, helped draw the plans for Woodward. The site for our building is the old Stickney Fair Grounds. Our school is one of two in the city having two gyms. Voice Tests Are Given Voice tests, from the Woodward's broadcasting system, were given this week in Miss Dorothy Kel1ogg's rooms. Certain students were recommended and their voices were tested-by reading certain lines. Miss Kellogg took notes on students voice and they might be used in future programs. E. L. Bowsher Calls Meeting E. L. Bowsher, superintendent of Toledo public schools, has called a special meeting of all Toledo school teachers, to be held Wednesday, Octo- ber 26, in Scott High School auditorium. Financial difficulties have necessi- tated this meeting, and Mr. Bowsher will present this plight, with possible effects it will have on the termination of the school year. ' I-IARRIERS CAPTURE CITY TITLE WOODWARD CROSS COUNTRY TEAM FAVORED TO TAKE DISTRICT MEET gPolar Bears Defeat DeVilbiss Otis Perry Woodward Reserves Lose Second City Game To Waite Suffering their second defeat of the season, the Woodward cubs were sub' dued by the Waite seconds 6-0. The Cubs had a golden opportunity to score early in the first quarter when a Cub fell on a Waite fumble. Wood- ward stuck to straight football, how- ever, and lost the ball on downs. A fourth down pass tallied the only score of the game. The attempted con- version was wide of the uprights. Futher play was dominated by the Cubs as they carried a 70 yard sus- tained drive to the Waite 12 yard line where they failed to carry the ball over. In the starting lineup were Oswald and Shimmans at ends, Baz and Bortels at guards, Koster and Cychler at tackles, and Poddany at the center position, Widlund, Tima, Remer, and Krell were in the back field. Woodward's line played a good game as a whole, while 'tSwede Widlund was the outstanding back. Horatio Jex's educated toe was sorely missed. Tonight the Bears journey to Scott for a game with the Bulldogs at 3:30. Football Faux Pas Whether people behave Well or not depends a good deal on the policies they have followed in the past but,-as it's nevertoo late to mend,', may we pass on to you one phase of social life prominentin high school life--the prop- er behavior at football games. 1. We may take it for granted that people attend football games to see the football game. Therefore, please con- tain yourself, and don't attract atten- tion by idiotic and childish acts. 2. There's nothing like being a good sport no matter what the cost, so don't sulk if we are losing. 3. Don't knock anyone out with your dying fists or stray pop bottles. 4. Shine your shoes at home and don't park your feet on ot er people. Also, while we're on the subject, don't shower unsuspecting people with pea- nut shells. 5. Watch what you say and do. Let's leave out the boos, razzes, and the foos. Picture Date Extended The deadline for senior pictures for the Saga has been extended until Satur- day, October 29.

Otis Perry, senior, assured the Polar Bears of a victory by placing first a- gainst the Tigers with the fine time of 10:41. DeVilbiss placed aman in second position, but Woodward came back to put runners in the following three places. The score of the meet was 21-34. The Woodward tracksters are also favored to win the district meet at Otta- wa Park tomorrow at 10 a.m., when they stack up against the best teams in Northwestern Ohio. At this District Meet, Coach Bill Fetters will send Perry, Jaschke, Rab- ideau, Cook, and Willick, who are ex- pected to make a fine showing. A victory over Scott last Friday put the Bears in position to grab the high honors. although Ed Skinner and Bob Mallory of Scott placed in the first two positions, Woodward put Otis Perry, George Jaschke, Harzey Cook, Louis Rabideau, Ellwin Willick and Wells, a newcomer, in successive positions to score a 26-30 win. Since this is the second year for cross country teams at Woodward, their showing has been perfect. Last yeor the runners went through a season ofde- feats because they were inexperienced. Childers Rudely Awakenedg Lankenau Recieves Peppers Wake up, Jim. It's time for break- fast,', chided Paul Lankenau, when Jim Childers fell asleep in the eighth hour economics class. Just then the door opened, and in walked Jim LaPlant carrying a plate covered with a spotless white napkin. The boys in the home economics class had prepared some stuffed green pep- pers and decided to present Mr. Lank- enau with a portion of them. - Afraid that if he ate them, he might drop dead in class, Mr. Lankenau took the peppers home. Maybe he ate them for breakfast. Chevrolet Film Shown A Elm, sponsored by the Chevrolet company, was shown to freshmen and seniors Tuesday third hour in the aud- itorium. It will be presented to sophomores and juniors Monday. Score Guessing Among the many learners in our fair school, there are a few which delve in- to the mystics of prognosticating the scores of future football games. Therefore, I am happy, my friends and enemies, to give you this opportu- nity of exercise this idiosyncrasy for mercenary purposes. In other wordage, place the result of your mental stress on the the blank spaces underneath and deposit it in the Tattler box in front of room 122 at 2:30 tonight and to the boy or girl coming closest to the correct score of the Wooodward-DeVilbiss tilt, will go a free ducat to the Bear-Bulldog- contest next Saturday.

Officers Of Freshman Hi-Y Are Elected, Vinson Is Pres. The Freshman Hi-Y officers, who were elected last spring, are Edwin Vinson, president, Bob McKinley, vice president, Bill Getz, secretaryg and Kenny Butler, treasurer. The meetings are held every Tuesday at 7:30 in the Y.M.C.A. On October 19, Doon Miller told the boys how to have an active club and a good program by having a speaker every Week. At the next meeting Bill Beat, member of the Scott Hi-Y, will speak of the national Hi-Y conference to be held at Berea, Kentucky. To become a member ofthis club a boy has to be 111 approved by members, 127 work for teachers, Q33 work at the Y.M.C.A., and Q47 attend three meetings. If a boy passes these requirements, he should prove to be active in the club. Frosh Given Examination Physical examinations were given to all freshman this week. The examina tion was also applied to two X cases and bad heart cases. The work was done by the Board of Education's health department in the little gym and also the boy's gym. Unlike many other gentlemen, this senior is a very shy fellow. Johnny Marinelli, our drum major, who is a val- uable asset to our band has proven him- self to be a pleasant, approachable per- son. His sole knowledge of musical instru- ments lies in the fact that he plays the harmonica during his spare moments- Football and baseball are his favorite sports, while band claims most of his interests at Woodward. A graduate of Hamilton school John- ny announces Tommy Dorsey as a fa- vored swing band and also likes to dance to slow swing. Another hobby is ama- teur arts and his ambition is to become an arc Welder. John's glowing admiration for a drum major friend inspired him to become Woodward's band leader. He finds his post in the band both interesting and entertaining. Boom, boom, boom!!! Here comes the bass drum, but let's takea peek at who is behind it. Could it be Frenchy, alias Harold LaFountaine,the person- alityv boy and president of the band. A natural, talented instinct helped me to pick up drumming after a few les- sons, he stated. Is it this same in- stinct that helps colors and food to have something in common at last? He likes all of both. Since a snare drum is not so promi- nent asa bass drum, this senior enjoys playing the latter the most. He also enjoys swimming, dancing, and ice skat- ing. In his live years of practical appli- cation, he has broken only five heads, referring to drums. Band and home economics are his favorite studies, while history can be found at the bottom of his list. Guy Sutphen states that the whole success of the band depends on the bass drummer, so, modestly, Harold predicts a successful year. . 'S .Fot Q 'S L, 'S E 5 l s Q S Tonight i.

Here's a Boost for Woodwards Tean Dear Editor: I recently heard a compliment giver to our Woodward team by a '38 graduatf of DeVilbiss High School. Iquote worc for word: Although I attended DeVilbiss fo: four years, I've always considered VVood ward as having the cleanest and faires players in the city. And their reputatiol has always been the highest in my esti mation. When I heard these statements by: boy who has never attended VVocdward I wondered if our student body wouldn' stop and realize that what this boy sail is true, and if instead of sneering anc booing at our team tonight, we would not cheer for it because, whether we wil or lose, we play fairly. I know we can't all play on the team but We can do our part on the sidelines cheering for Dear Old Woodward. Marlyn Renz. A Timely Plea Dear Editor: What is becoming of our club spirit? Is it dying because the boys and girls are afraid that they might be asked tx do a little work to help their clubs, or i: the lack of interest due to the aftei school meetings? I think that aftei school meetings are better because yoi can get more done and it seems as i: you can concentrate on the club anc not on some homework you did not dc the night before. Mrs. O'Brien has asked for new mem bers, especially boys, to join the Red Cross. Don't think, boys, that you are a sissy in this work. Maybe you haven'1 all you want, but remember there are others less fortunate who need your support. Let's all join clubs and make therr worthwhile. Mabel Taylor. Why? Why? Why? Dear Editor: Will some one please tell me wh5 Woodward hasn't a stadium? You knovs Iwould like to see our team play or our own field from our own stadium be fore I graduate. It certainly would be a grand feeling. Since I've been in Woodward I've never been in Woodwa.rd's stadium Reason: It was condemned before .l got here. Don't you think the team would feei better knowing they could play on theii own field and not have to go to some other school and be called the visiting team? I think that this has gone or long enough, and I see no reason why the students of Woodward can't co-op erate and work together for a new stadium. I am not only speaking for myself but for all the loyal students of Woodward interested in seeing our school up among the best. A Junior. Credits Acceptable Since Woodward belongs to the Nortt Central Association of colleges and sec ondary schools, the credits which the students receive for their subjects are acceptable in all schools and colleges belonging to this organization.

Then with the realization of the importance of speaking well, and the deficiency of the students, an oral expression class was inaugurated. In this class, students study the fundamentals of good speech, the formations of consonants voice infiections, speaking tones, and gestures, then the subject and contents of the speech itself. Not only are students aided in speaking be- fore a group, but their daily conversation is im- proved, also. The oral expression class is just one of the various classes devoting themselves to the actual im- provement of the student. We. may all .deliberate the value of oral ex- pression. The importance of being able to speak well is great. Radio, Here We Come ADIO HAS at long last thrown open its doors to Woodward high school. An opportunityfor our students to participate in various types of programs and to display their talent has finally been given us. Students possessing good speaking voices and some acting ability are frequently taking part in dramatic productions and question and answer pro- grams broadcast over Toledo's two radio stations. Great thanks is due to all who cooperate to make this possible. Drive Safely! RIVE SAFELY! Let all of us hear that com mand and heed it. En route to Toledo from Columbus, last Friday, the Tattler staff saw an accident, a picture worth ten thousand phrases enforcing safe and sane driving, which brought home to them the horrible finality of an accident which is over, and which could have been prevented. Bodies lying on the grass-people with frantic faces rushing about--all the factors that always contrib- ute to the tragedy of such a scene. Many of us in high school are already licensed drivers. Don't let this Horror visit you. Drive Safely! A Solution CC AIR may well describe the school attendance of Woodward students. However, many l pupils, especially boys, have been absent for minor excuses. Absence may make the heart grow fonder, but it does not make the mind grow keener. The chief reason for fully one-half the unsatisfactories which are distributed to Woodwardites is continual, un- necessary absence. If everyone realized how large apart interest plays in the student's progress and understood that this very essential factor is weakened by staying home, perhaps there would not be so many absences for unimportant reasons.

Benny Langlois, Zig Kaminski Standout In Bears' Third Consecutive City Loss Woodward's Polar Bears suffered their third straight setback of the cur- rent campaign at the hands of a strong DeVilbiss eleven by the score of 24-0. DeVilbiss first tally came midway in the first canto, when a Tiger lineman broke through and blocked a Langlois punt, allowing Ed Kanney to scoop it up and cross the goal uninolested. The second score came in the second quarter shortly aftera WVoodward punt was downed on the Tiger's 42. Smith and Welch carried the ball down to the eleven. Three plays later, Welch carried it over. Woodward lost its one chance to score in the second, after Ben Langlois had returned a kickoff forty yards to the Tiger 34. Kaminski, after a try at the line heaved a perfect aerial to Mvnefier, standing in the end zone, but Johnnie tripped and dropped it. In the third quarter, the Bears worked their way down to the Tiger's twenty on successive line plays by Langlois and Raczko, but lost the ball on downs. There was no scoring in the third period. After Welch had carried the ball to the Woodward 20, four more plays put the ball on the one where Vail smashed over for the third touchdown. A Welch interception paved the way for the final tally. He took the ball on the 35 and carried it to his 45. Chappius carried the ball the remaining 55 yards, on five consecutive downs to score. Dick Welch was the star for the Or- ange and Black, while Langlois and Kaminski were the outstanding per- formers for the losers. DeVilbiss gained 379 yards from scrimmage, to the Bears' 99. The form- er also garnered 15 first downs, while the Polar Bears only managed to get 5. Huston Leads City Scorers, Ben Langlois Tied For Third Dick Huston, Libbey's backfield ace, rocketed his point total to 102 by scoring three touchdowns against East Chicago last week. Al Hoover, Scott's mainstay, remained in second place with 60 points to his credit. Tied for third place with 25 each, are Wood- wardis Benny Langlois, DeVilbiss' Dick Welch. and Libbey's Lynn Georgia. Individual scorers: T. P.T. T.

BEARS ENCOUNTER HEAVY IRISH SQUAD Blue And White Will Depend On Fine Kicking, Running To Set Central Back A The Bears main objective tomorrow will be to drop the Central eleven into the cellar position when they meet in their annual clash. The site of the combat will be' the Page Stadium with the game starting at 2 p. m. This is the third consecutive year that these two squads will have tangled to avoid the bottom roost. The Bears will be fighting to avenge last year's defeat handed them by the Irish. The only edge the Centralites is that they have tied with Libbey and have not allowed their opponents as many touchdowns as the Bears. Despite this fact a thrilling contest is expected to ensue. Benny Langlois' punting, keeping the Red and Gray out of Woodward territory, and Kaminskiis strong offen- sive drives should add considerably to the Bear's cause. Line fortifications, effective passing, and the Irish's speedy backfield will be the principal worries of Art Smith's gridders. Vic Ervine, bulky Central fullback, will not see action in this Saturday's fray. Receiving a chest injury during a scrimmage Tuesday, he will be unable to play, This casualty is likely to put a wrench in the Irish's well-oiled machin- ery. Bear Cubs Lose To Central, Encounter Scott In Finale The Woodward lightweights received their third setback of the season by a tricky Central eleven to the tune of 19-6. Central scored early in the game by virtue of a reverse through the center of the Cub's forward wall. This play prov- ed to be effective during the first half. The point after touchdown wae good, after the Bears had been called off-side after the first attempt had failed. A Woodward fumble and good open feild running on the part of the Irish accounted for the second tally. The third came on a pass interception when Tima was trapped and thew wild. The Central team outweighed the Cubs eight to ten pounds per man, and had a very elusive backfield shift. Jim Tima, Swede Widlund were out- standing offensivly while the defensive play Joe Baz, Bob Myneder, and Gene Oswald was fine. Mirabellois showed up well in his new duty at punting The reserves end their 1938 grid schedule to-night when they encounter Scott on the Bulldogs gridiron at 3:00.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER F'mMmW HELENCHHFFHN GRANTS INTERVIEW in W A W Miss Griffin 'fRadio is a fascinating field as there are so many interesting sides to it, stated Miss Helen Griffin, English teacher, when interviewed about her work at radio station WSPD. Miss Griffin is mail secretary at the station in the evenings, and in this way is enabled to see and hear many broadcasters andofficials at work. As a hobby she writes scripts for short entertainments, although she does not submit them. I do it just for amusement, she said, and there is a lot of work behind actually getting a script accepted? As a part of her work, Miss Griffin often corrects scrirts grammatically. She made the assertion that although radio was primarily a man's field, wom- en work rapidly breaking in, as in most other vocations. Radio is still so young and has yet to go so far that I want to watch its de- velopment personally , she said. Miss Griffin studied at Mary Manse College and the University of Michigan. She taught history at Garfield school before coming to Woodward.

FAIR WARNING Gather round my hearties, and listen to my tale: b It will make your insides shiver as a dog upon a rail. For Hallowe'en will soon be here, so listen to this story Of the boy who let his homework go, to stay in school till 40. The teachers gnashed their teeth and wept to see his interest weaken: His wifey dressed in finest lace and went to see the deacon. But slowly hopes began to fade, until the goblins entered, To rough him up, to black his eyes, and leave him badly dented. So, boys and girls take warning here, and give your brain a dustin g--- Lack of work, surplus of fun, have made it very rusty--- . As Hallowe'en will soon be here, to tease the erstwhile snooty, And goblins, too, who come along, are sure to do their duty.

TATTLER STAFF SEES AN With suppressed yawns and droop- ing lids, the Tattler staff gathered at Woodward last Friday morning at 7 a. m., piled their luggage into cars, and merrily set sail for the fifteenth annu- al convention of the Jourualism Asso- ciation of Ohio Schools held in Colum- bus over Friday and Saturday, October 21 and 22. Enroute, interesting fl!!! conversa- tions took place, and, in some cars, community sings were held. The staff reached Columbus at ap- proximately 11 a. m., and were regis- tered at the Deshler- Wallick hotel, headquarters ofthe convention, by Mrs. Marie Ersig, Tattler adviser, better known as Mama . The girls then received an elevator ride land a queer sensationj to rooms on the fourteenth fioor. which served as their abode dur- ing the stay in Columbus. Although, in former years ,the boys have stayed at fraternity houses, this year a different practice was followed, and they also lodge the Deshler. The convention was opened formally at 2 p. rn. in the ball room ofthe hotel by LaRue W. Piercy, president of the assoiation. There followed two interest- ing speeches, the first, Making and Re- porting History , given by Gordan Custer, of the Columbus Dispatch, and the second, B talk both humorous and serious, Hide and Seek , by Dr. Roy A. Burkhart, of the Firet Community Church, Marble Cliff. A This first general meeting adjourned at 4 p. m. and in the ensuing hour var- ious activities were carried on by the :rar 9.1.

At 6:30 p. rn., everyone attending the convention again met in the ball room for the banquet, during which various schools gave their yells and songs. The whole assembly was also led in Ohio State cheers by Ohio State cheerlead- ers. The after dinner speaker was Pro- fessor Clyde R.

On Saturday, from 8:30 a. m. until noon,the staff attended various round table discussions in which they heard and discussed different phases of news- paper work and received helpful hints for improving our paper. These round tables were held in the Commerce build ing on the Ohio State campus. At 10:30 a. m. , the Convention gath- ered in the Commerce college auditor- ium to hear the announcemet of the awards in the association contests. Trophy cups were awarded to the schools submitting the best and second best news feature, editorial, sports story, and personal column. DeVilbis was the only Toledo high school to receive a prize.

In behalf of the new teachers s splendidly feted and entertained vs would like to express our sincere: appreciation to those who made suc a pleasant evening possible. A New Teacher. Wanted: A New Stadium Dear Editor: When we were freshmen two yea ago, we were promised a new stadiu As yet, nothing has been ,built exce a fence. Why couldn't a group of studen1 take out a petition to get what we a desire, aNEW STADIUM? I'm srue 3 every student did his part we coul have a swell one. Surely if we had to, we couilg earn part ofthe money needed by givi programs, dances, and many otha things. I've heard many students talk abou what a poor team we have. Is ita wonder we lose so many games? begin with we have no stadiumgt players are not supported by the loyal f?J fans: and predictions 1 coming games are all against us. However, at the present everyone or should he, interested in providin Woodward with what is needed moi a stadium. M.T. E A Novel Idea , Dear Editor: l So far this year, I have attended if the city football games, and I notie the students are't all singing th school song. I think it is because man of them don't know the words. Some of them hum parts and join ' on the parts they know, but others doiil even try. I think the Tattler could remedy thi by publishing the words to our schoc song, so the students who donit know the words are able to learn them. Thi practice could be followed every year the freshmen can join heartily with t upper classmen. 1 Patty Hammontree 1 What is Loyalty? Dear Editor: Can anyone tell me just what loyal means? Is there such a word in t American that language applies Woodward students. 1 In our school we have a stationer desk which sells school supplies. Th adviser of this desk department is usin, every effort to accommodate Woodwa students. The supplies are purchase at the lowest price and are sold at t smallest profit. This profit is used pay some scholars tuition and expens thru college. The merchandise is of t best quality. In spite ofall these acco modations, students go down town an buy the same thing and pay just as mucl Is this loyalty? I am not trying to commercializ this paper or school, but I do thin that if this organization is good enoug to help support a student thru collegl it's good enough to be recognized b the student body.

Lankenau Finds Skeleton From the dark recesses of the closet in room 124, Paul Lankenau rattled out the I'attler skeleton. Papers musty with age revealed how much the modern Fattler has improved. The school publication then cost two :ents and sports were printed on the front page. There were intercepts from 1917, 1920, aud the 1930 editions of the Tattler. When a pupil pays only one cent for his paper, he receives twice as much news and much better written feature. Support your school paper! LITERARY SOCIETY JUNIOR COMMITTEES SELECTEDg 15 ORGANIZED HERE INSTALLED IN AUDITORIUM TODAY 34 Mr. Lankenau Realizing the importance ofliterature, and the further cultural advancement gained from a literary society, a Forum Literary society has been formed. The Forum Literary society, composed en- tirely of boys, is organized in other schools of the city. The purpose of the club is to promote literature and culture in the school, and the meetings will consist of discussions of school and world problems. Paul Lankenau, a new teacher in Woodward this year, has consented to be adviser of this society. Mr. Lankenau has had experience in college in this type of work, and is eager to accom- plish much for the club. Charter members of the society are George Hope, James Brubaker, Myer Greenbaum, Kenneth Hansen, Malcolm Hogg, Bill Anspach, Verne Kramer, Bill Moores, Louis Rabideau, and Dick Scar- isbrick. At its first meeting last Tuesday the following committees were appointed: constitution committee, Myer Green- baum, Malcolm Hogg, Verne Kramer, and Dick Scarisbrickg distinction com- mittee Norman Monto, Bill Moores, Fred Saba, and Bob Schwellingerg committee for election of officers, Jim Brubaker, Harvey Cook, Frank Hogg, George Hope and Bill Raczko. MILDRED BOEHLER HEARS ALICE LONGHWORTH Ed. Note: The following account of Alice Roosevelt Longworth's talk, I Be- lieve In America, was recored for the Tattler by Mildred Boehler, senior. Alice Roosevelt Longworth, America's princess, only daughter of Theodore Roosevelt and a distant relative of Franklin Roosevelt, lectured on I be- lieve In America before a Town Hall audience last Saturbay. I, being a Roosevelt, am in the field of political talking, of course began Alice Longworth, 'land 'always have been because of my political surround- ings. But, she stated, her remarks of criticism about the present adminis- tration would have to be limited be- cause the person now in ofiice, meaning President Roosevelt, bears the same name as her own. Mrs. Longworth went on to state that there is nothing new in our problems of today, that they are much like those of other days except for the govern- ment, and that has taken a radical hange, although the people don't know Et. She warned us to be on the look-out cs see that the personal liberties grant- d us in the constitution are not taken way from us. She said the system of hecks and balances that was so care- fully set up by the founders of this coun try had now become a system ofchecks drawn on the government treasury by the persons now in power. That alone is something to watch out for. She remarked: Welfare for every- body means that each person is depen- dent upon someone else. We all want to be led and still be free. That is the reason so many countries and ours, too, may be facing dictatorship soon. Voters today favor redistribution of wealth. That means getting all we can out of the government and taking away from the rich and giving to the poor. Mrs. Longworth thinks we can make no headway by doing that, because soon money will be just bits of worthless paper. , Those who don't want a dictatorship, she said, could amend the constitution, limiting any man being termed Presi- dent to one term and no more, because one man rule means the return of king- ship or dictatorship and that's just what we don't want. l Mrs. Longworth concluded by saying that only through the right kind of spirit and a keen mind can we gain our freedom and our beliefs in America once more. ,j WOODWARD SONGS I Printed below is the Woodward Alma Mater Song, dedicated to teachers and students by the writer, G. V. Sutphen, with many happy memories. Woodward High, our Alma Mater, All our youthful years are Thineg In Thy halls and busy classrooms, Happy hours and golden daysg All of youth's and life's best pleasures Through Thy doors pass swiftly on. Alma Mater, Woodward High School, To thy praise we sing today. When our steps are growing slower, Cares of life and duty cally Then our thoughts turn back to Thee, Alma Mater of our youthg Mem'ry brings us back again To all those happy days of yore. Alma Mater, Woodward High School, To thy praise we sing today. The following color song was written by Miss Anne Wetterman, Spanish and German teacher. It is sung to the tune of Maryland, My Maryland. O, Woodward lofty, strong and free! Of all the schools so true, I gladly lead my steps to thee, Whose banner is the white and blue. The white stands for equality, The blue for friendship, loyalty. May I in earnest work and play, Pledge friendship now and always. O, Woodward lofty, free and strong! Within thy glorious span, Thou giveth knowledge, love and song To every race and clan. My heart forever will be thine, O noble school of Woodward mine: No space or time will ever dim The glory of thy righful hymn. City Official Praises Band Principal C. C. La Rue received the following letter from a city official in commendation of Woodward's band. October 27, 1938 Charles C. LaRue, Principal, Woodward High School, Toledo, Ohio. Dear Mr. LaRue: Last evening, I acted as Commander of the 5th Division of the Broadway Opening Parade consisting of munic- ipal equipment. The Woodward High School Band was assigned to my unit and as itfollowed immediately after my car in the parade I had an opportunity to observe it closely. Although I expressed my apprecia- tion to the drum major last night, I would be negligent if I did not express to you and perhaps to the entire band through you my regard for them. In brief: descipline was splendid: music was well selected, in good tempo and rendered with spiritg marching was well ordered, in splendid cadence and peppy, a thing seldom found in school bands. I feel that you should share with me the pride that I felt in having them in my division. Their work brought praise from the crowds all along the line of march and reflected great credit to you, to themselves and to their school. I thank you. Yours very truly, D. E. A.

VER 65,000 ardent football fans standing in respectful silence---men with heads bare--the strains of first Ohio State's and then Chicago's alma mater floating across the field. This was one of the greatest thrills experienced by the Tattler staff during their recent stay in Columbus. Contrast this with what took place at the Wood- ward-Central game. Over 2,000 high school students on both sides of the stadium snicfkering as Wood- ward's new alma mater was played-everywhere men and boys, with their hats on, joking about the funeral march -fans mocking the song's serious- ness by feigning tears. Why is there this amazing difference in the be- havior of these two groups of football enthusiasts? Need there be such a difference? Vote Wisely O CHOOSE efficient officers for their class will be the duty of sophomore students next week Tuesday. It is most important for the future welfare of the class that able leaders be elected. Before voting for a particular candidate, ask yourself the following question: will he capably fill this position? If you can honestly answer, Yes, by all means vote for him. A splendid sophomore class cabinet will emerge if you follow this method of choosing the candidate for whom you should vote. It's Up To Us C5 EOW! Yeal Wahoo! Calm yourselves,the barbaric tribes of South Africa haven't in- vaded our halls with these yells. These are the sounds which come bursting from throats of supposedly civilized Woodwardites. During both lunch hours, during programs in the auditorium, and between classes, students who know better carouse about like wild Indians. At the end of sixth hour, banana peelings and paper wrappers are strewn from one end of a hall to the other. To most of us, this is an old story. We have heard about it before. And yet, have we done anything about it? Apparently not, otherwise this yelling and this disorder would not exist to the extent that they do. It isn't a hopeless situation. It can be remedied ifeveryone will do his part in keeping Woodward clean, and in being fairly quiet. Let's use the waste containers for what they were intended. Let's save our shouts for the games. Educational Week EXT week the observance of Educational Week will be held. Teachers of Northwestern Ohio l schools are in session for the purpose of learn- lng better how to further the education and culture of their students. Noting this interest shown by this large group of people, can't we cooperate by doing our best tojus- tify this interest. PRINCIPAL POINTS C? C? X fx All over Ohio, this past week has been f Q ' devoted to the furtherance of Education. fi N' It seems rather odd that people need to 5' 2 ' , V '- ,, be prompted to make use of the most price- Q A less heritage left us by the founders of our K . . - countr . R -' Duridg the pioneer times our forefa- -X thers were so determined to secure the blessing of an education that they made ertre me sacrifices to achieve it. Wherever a little settlement sprang up, there too was always located a small one room log hut to house the teacher and the childreihwho came from far and near to learn the T ree 's. School terms were short. Teachers were inadequately prepared, often being just a little more advanced than the pupils. In spite of all the hardships and poor equipment many young men were trained for higher institutions of learning and became the state and national leaders. Little by little education became more and more universal. During the 1880's the public high school began to Hourish although at first the curriculum was just a meager attempt to refine and extend what had already been learned in the first eight grades. Free schools as we now know them, that is, schools supported wholly Ry taxation, are just one hundred ears old in Ohio t is year. y When we think of the schools of 1838 in comparison with our own high schools in Toledo, we can see that we have come a long way in our attempt to educate all the eo le. Educgtioifji, while bestowing untold benefits upon us as a whole nation, costs very little. Last year the great state of Ohio spent S300,000,000 for beer, wine, liquors, and tobacco. It spent in the same period 898,000,000 for its schools, and yet some citizens will insist that the cost of education is too high. There is no moral intended in the above. Any intel- ligent reader can form his own conclusions. She Snoops To Conquer With the new hands off girls policy, what will Bill Anspach do?

It was lovely waltz time with the students pranc- ing to Let Me Call You Sweetheart. Bob Steiner-- dipped in oil --smooth to you---spent his time dancing with Maxine LaFountaine. The stag-line was unusually large, consisting of Carl Rutkowski, Stanely Klapp, Wallace Antosczewski, Leo Stasiak, Stanely Cychler, and Lawrence Bell. Tsk! Tsk! Such bashful boys. The girls on the other side of the gym darted loving glances in their direction, but nary a one would ask them to dance. My! My! Gene Pease rates with Ethel Walterschied. They were constant partners. If that cex tain couple would dance any closer, they'd be on the other side of each other. Get what I mean, Dick? Another twosome-Bob Martin and Jean Rydman.

For three years I had won the sub- stitutes' race to the players' bench be- fore the game. I hadn't seen action for such a long time that I had begun to believe that if I did get in I'd do a Cor rigan act. As I say, I was sitting nonchalantly on the timber picturing myself in the game doing a Frank Merriwell. The present status of the fray found us on the short end ofa 13 to 7 count with 'two minutes remaining in the ball game. Suddenly the coach signalled me to his side. He whispered some information into my ear which I didn't hear, but I started warming up. One minute and ten seconds to go! Then the referee blew his whistle. I again dashed over to the coach to get my final instructions. What would he say? A long pass? Maybe. He started to buzz some jombled words into my ear and slipped some- thing into my hand. My big chance! I musn't let my nerves get the best of me. Run over there and buy me a bag of peanuts , he said. Bears, Clay Tangle Woodward's Bears will meet an un- defeated squad from Clay, tonight, when they play on the opponent grid- iron. News of this contest was announc- ed to the players Wednesday.This will be the Bears' sixth game of the season. They finish their schedule against Scott on Saturday, November 12- ... - , .,., ,..... ....,.......l BEAR LIGHTWEIGHTS COMPLETE SEASON Reserves Finish 1938 Grid Schedule With Record Of 2 Wins, 3 Losses The Woodward lightweights ended their 1938 grid schedule with two games won to three lost in city competition, by handing the Scott secondsa 13-7 setback in a Merriwell finish on the Bulldogs gridiron last Friday. Scott scored their only touchdown after three minutes of play by virtue of repeat end sweeps, after which their offense seemed to fold up. The try for extra point was good. At the end of the half, the Bulldogs led 7-0, although the Bears had carried the ball down to their opponents five as the whistle blew. There was no more scoring by either team until late in the fourth quarter, when Jim Tima plunged over for the Cubs initial tally after lire plays and passes had carried the ball to the Scott 5 yard line. Jim then proceeded to con- vert, tying the score. The Bulldogs elected to receive. The Scott ball carrier was hit hard by Swede Widlund, after he had returned Mirabello's long kick-off to the twenty, and fumbled with Mirabello recovering for the Bears. On the second play, Tima chucked a thirty yard aerial to Oswalt, who was standing in the end zone, for the winning points. The game ended as the try for point-after-touchdown was missed. Another Bear score was narrowly missed when Swede returned a Scott punt 55 yards to score, but the play was called back because of an off-side pen- a tv. The line-up for the Cubs was: Oswalt and Mirabello, at the wings, B. Burns and Baz, at tackles, Koster and Bor- tels, at the flanks, and Myneder at the pivot position. The backfield was composed of Krell, Tima, Widlund, and Remer. Swede Widlund and Jim Tima were the outstanding ball carriers, while Remer did a fine job of blocking. On the line, the work of Gene Oswalt and Fat Myneder stood out. Stan Cychler was unable to play due to water on the knee, sustained in the Waite tilt.

CENTRAL SUBDUES WOODWARD BEARS Blue and White On Short End Of 25 to 0 Count, Central Passes Spell Defeat Displaying a sterling pass offense Central's Fighting Irish shoved the Woodward Bears into the City League cellar as they inflicted a stingnig 25 to 0 defeat on the Blue and White in the Page arena at DeVilbiss last Satur- day. The Central squad surpassed the Bears in every respect in the eighteenth meet- ing between the two squads. Central struck pay dirt midway in the first quarter when Ted Sarahman flipped an aerial passing to McGuire in the end zone for the Red and Gray's first touch- down. Zach converted from placement. In the second quarter, Central count- ed twice with Harold Mouch supplying one score on an end run, and Dick Stru- garek counting the other with his catch gf a touchdown pass thrown by Chan- er. After a scoreless third period, Cen- tral impressed their victory with a fin- al six points late in the last quarter. Vic Irvine, playing with a severe chest injury, scored the last marker on a line buck from the one yard line. Chuck Lyman, Roger Staebler, Zig Kaminski and Ted Gosciniak played well for the Bears while Chandler's fine passing put him in the limelight. Woodward enjoys an off--date this week in which to prepare for the on- coming tilt with the league--leading Bulldogs from Scott. This will be the final Bear grid contest in the 1938 season.

Woodward Junior Red Cross Plans Several Fall Projects The Junior Red Cross, advised by Mrs. Mary O'Brien, is planing several worthwhile projects for this fall. The association will send flfty Thanksgiving favors to soldiers at Chillicothe, Ohio. One of them was delegated to write to various uospitals to see when girls may come to read to sick children. New members were initiated at a Weiner roast Tuesday, November 1, at Walbridge Park. ' VanTassel Talks In Cleveland Clyde VanTassel, who is a member of the legislative committee of the O. E. A., spoke Friday in Cleveland at the North Eastern Ohio Teachers Association Con- vention. His topic was the Teachers' Tenure Plan. The meetings were held in the Cleveland Public Auditorium with 15,000 teachers present. Pop Raymond Enters 11th Year At Woodwardg Has Innumerable Duties A hearty Hello, Good morning, and a cheery smile greet each student as he passes Mr. Raymond, busily en- gaged on one of his innumerable tasks. Woodwards custodian believes in friendliness and wants the pupils to be friendly to him. Analyze any school activity, and Mr. Raymond will be at the co re,doing more than his share to make it a success. I believe that Wocdwai dconduct is as good as any school if not better, emphatically stated the custodian: also, there is less rowclyismfi As a home man he dries dishes, and likes it. Some ofhis duties areg locking up the building, preparing the auditorium lor a meeting, taking charge of the gym, turning fn lights, watching football equiptment, placing paper cont: iners, and many other services too numerous to mention. Mr. Raymond was an advertising man before the World War, and after the war became a custodion. Blade Circulation Manager Requires News-boy Record Frank Newell, circulation mane ger of the Toledo Blade, is requiring all stu- dents who are Blade newsboys to sub- mit a record card signed by their par- ents and the principal of the school they attend. Mr. Newell has two reasons for this: First, he must conform to a Federal regulation which requires precise rec- ords. Second, since he is vitally inter- ested in seeing that each student keep his school record in good shape, he asks that principals refuse to sign cards for newsboys whose scholarship is not up to the schoolts requirements. This refusal to sign will indicate that the student cannot spare time from school work to sell papers. Members Of Tattler Attend Press Meeting At DeVilbiss Members of the Tattler staffattendcd a Press Association meeting of all high school journalism students held at, DeVilbiss high school, Wednesday November 2. Woodward students who attended were Helen Trautman, Willaim Anspach, Phylis Hendrickson, Rita Tertil, Sam Laderman, Rose Shemas, Jeanette Levine, Jean Douglas, and Agnes Leece. To the Editor: In view of the fact that silence is golden, our student body's foresight must become more keen or a rowdy reputation will soon be acquired. Noise could be reduced immensely through the cooperation of the boys who seem to find it necessary to come out with a war whoop during any performance on the stage. Appreciation of silence would become highly magnified by thefaculty, should silence become a fz-ct. And re- spect for our school will increase along with it. An Interested Stu dent We Can't Take It Dear Editor: Where is our school spirit? I am re- ferring to the Woodward-DeVilbiss game. After the first touchdown for De- Vilbiss, our cheering sections went hay- wire. I again ask you, where is our school spirit? We had over 1000 stu- dents in our stands, but it sounded like 100. This is my first year here and I personally believe that the Woodward students can't take it. When Waite, Scott, DeVilbiss, Central, and all the rest of the schools are losing you don't see their cheering sections letting them down, but we do. I am for my school all the way and in about two years hope to be out on that field my- self. I sincerely hope that Woodward students get some pep and sportman- ship in their blood. I appeal to you and the staff of the Tattler in hope that every student and teacher may read what I have to say. Charles Robinson Needy Ones Come First Dear Editor: The N. Y. A. was established to help needy pupils work through school. But it seems to be the happy hunting ground of those who desire a little cash with- out work. I know a storekceper's son who re- ceives the monthly allotment. If he needs the money, the school should place Rockerfeller on relief. Yet there are many less fortunate pupils who have given up all hope of working for S5 a month. I don't think any student is so selfish as to stand in the way of some more de- serving scholar. If one doesn't actually need the N. Y. A. paycheck, he should just drop from the rolls. Indignant Candy Sale Planned The freshman, sophomore, and senior friendship clubs will hold a splash par- ty and pot luck at the Y.W.C.A. on No- vember 19. A candy sale has been planned for the first week in December- 5 HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT CODE I realize that, as a student. I owe an' obligation to parents or relatives whose , sacrifice have given me the foundations upon which I am building, to the school which offers me an opportunity to de- velop my natural powers, to the com- munity which makes possible my educational advantages, to my country which gives me liberty under law, and to my future as an individual and a citizen. In keeping with my determination honorably to discharge this obligation, I promise: That I will use the facilities offered by the classroom to enlarge and broaden my interests, to increase my knowledge, to bring me closer to truth, and to cultivate habits of industry and sound thinking. That I will broaden my sympathies and practice the arts of sociability, true friendliness, and helpfulness in my home, in the school, and in all my associations, avoiding snobbishness in my own conduct and condemning it in others. That I will develope habits of reading ., and conversing which will broaden my culture and enable me better to under stand the problems of community,state. and nation. That I will carry on discussion in and out of the classroom, not to over- come opponents and gratify my pride, but that I may grow in knowledge and wisdom. That I will avoid every form of cheat- ing or dishonesty and will undertake to discourage all dishonorable practices. That I will obey every rule or law of school, city, state and nation, reserving the right to criticize rules and laws con- structively, but respecting them so long as they prevail. That I will use my powers and indu- ence for the common good. That I will pursue happiness myself and strive to establish conditions under which happiness and opportunity may be hopefully pursued by everyone in my home, my school, my community, my country, and the world. lThe above code was adopted by the National Association of Student Offi- cers last July at a meeting of the Asso- ciation in New York City.J TEACHER COMMENTS ON ENGLISH SCHOOLS Main Fault Is Class System Of Education, Wealthy Group Is Favored .-...-1-1- The only criticism I have of English schools is they employ the class system. By that I mean they are partial toward children of wealthy families, stated Miss Katharine Tobin, Woodward science teacher, who studied at Oxford University in England last summer. She emphasized, however, that the discipline is very rigid, and as physical education the students take very strenu- ' Q ous exercise-. In private school, said Miss Tobin, a high tuition is paid and boy and girl' students attend separate schools. Stu dents wear uniforms with the school monogram. The free schools are coedu- cationalf' Headington, a private high schoo for girls, was visited by Miss Tobin' group. The tuition is about 25750 a yea and there are only eighty girls enrolled, these coming from certain high rank- ing families. The estate is about as large as Walbridge or Ottawa park. 'Toorer students showing unusuarl ability are sometimes given places i the private schools, but are usually ex- pected to become writers, she declared. School courses stress only one line oil study, such as literature or science The yearly term is about seven month long. Girls are trained to entertaiij socially along with their other studies. A typical farm school interesteci Miss Tobin greatly. Daughters o farmers att-end and learn about agri- culture. The farm is stocked with far animals and poultry so the student can have the right atmosphere aroun them. The English curriculum is more advanced than in American schools. General subjects are Latin, geometry science, and history. True to formf' said Miss Tobin, at four o'clock, everything stops for tea. Federal Concert Orchestra Presents Symphonic Music The Federal Concert orchestra, un der the direction of Meyer Shapiro honored Woodward this last week b presenting eight symphonic arrang meats in the auditorium Monday, Tue day, aud Wednesday. This federal orchestra is a federa music project of the W. P. A. sponsore by the Toledo Symphony orchestra uri direction of Charles W. Roth. Six short selections from Johan Sebastian Bach, which are 200 years ol opened the program. Bach wrote man of his selections under the moonligh The second arrangement, which cause1 a little shock, was called Surprise Symphony composed by Joseph Hay en.

UST as twenty years ago representatives of most of the nations in the world met to decide upon a means of settling their disputes, so today efforts are being made to peaceably solve disagreements of practically the same nature. Yet' in these twenty years since the Armistice was signed on November l1,1918, to halt the bloody confiict being waged, it seems we have progressed ll little. Now peace conferences are being held before the war, not after itg to prevent bloodshed, not to stop it. The wisdom of such action remains to be proven. However, if one thinks of the millions ofWorld War soldiers who gallantly gave up their lives that the world might be made safe for democracy and real- izes the uselessness of their great sacrifice, doesnit it seem that more can be gained across a discussion table than across no man's land? A Goldmine OW fortunate we are to have in the world the wealth of books that there are today! Thousands upon thousands from which we may choose! We may use them to get information, we may use them to study, or we may use them purely for entertainment. Centuries ago, we find the- Egyptians engraving their inscriptions on stones, on the walls of their monuments, and on columns. The Assyrians press- ed theirs upon clay tablets, which were hardened by baking. And the Greeks and Romans used tablets of ivory, metal, or wood. Later, paper books were made by hand, and it took a scribe perhaps a year to make a book con- taining as much reading matter as an average school history. He could, ofcourse, make only one at a time, and it therefore was difficult for a very large part of the population to have access to even one book. With the ooming of printing in the fifteenth cen- tury, books became more plentiful and much cheap- er. From this time on, production has steadily in- creased, and today one can read all the books one desires. The week of November 14 to 19 has been named Book Week to promote the reading of more books Let's take advantage of our good fortune and do it- We Appeal For An Amplifier gg E HAVEN'T access to the most reputable speakers because of the rowdiness of the audience? We have been hounded by a statement to that effect for years now, and it's time something was done about it besides a juvenile and ineffective police system! This is a situation where the majority need not suffer for the minority. Aside from reforming our reputation, and the im- portance of that need not be questioned, a solution to the noisiness in the auditorium would prove in- valuable through the information gained from the speeches. The financial expense will appear as a drop in the bucket compared to the benefits derived. Therefore, we, in behalf of the student body, suggest that an amplifier be installedin the audito- rium to remedy this vital defect. Health Hints By Miss Coy Flashes From Friends ltiany of the boys and girls have come to me about a distressing skin condition called acne. Acne is a skin disease which is most prevalent be- tween the years of 13 to 25. Rarely do you see a person having it after the age of thirty. - Acne, science has at last decided, is due to an unbal ance of the glands which formerly have remained dor' mant and now become active. These throw other glands out 0' balanceg some becoming more active, others inactive. The oil glands of the skin become more active. As a result you complain of oily skin, blackheads, and pimples. D The treatment for an ordinary case of acne is as follows: Wash the face aeveral times a day with soap and water. Applications of alcohol or calamine lotion help to dry up the pimples. The diet must be carefully guarded. All fried foods, pastries such as cake and pies and gravies must be eliminated. Fruit, vegetables, and milk must make up the diet. Constipation, if present, must receive attention. In young people this usually disappears when food is eaten, proper abdominal exercises are taken and plenty of water is had each day. Yeast also helps this condition. A good sun tan will often clear up a very serious skin infection. Serum has not proven successful in treating this condition. Some doctors have reported very successful results when glandular extracts have been given. X-ray is the only way to treat acne in its most serious form. How Would You Say It? How different pupils compliment a girl: Chemistry student--Your eyes, your eyes are as blue as copper sulfate dissolved in hydrocloric acidg and your lips are as red as potassium permangante in distilled water. Biology student--Your iris are as blue as deep Water and the outer epidermis of your proboscis is as red as the red corpuscles containing hemoglobin. Bookkeeping student--You have a perfect 8 figure and your head reminds me of a 0 izeroi. When I add up your points on one side and as you know the answers to the questions on the other side, there is a perfect balance. Economic Geography student-Your eyes are as blue as Lake Erie, which has the depth of 1000 feet in spots and has an abundance of freshwater fish, and your lips are as red as Baldwin apples of Ohio, which averaged 351.25 a bushel and were slightly wormy this year.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER BEAR GRIDDERS FACE 1 BULLDOGS IN FINALE ighteen Seniors Complete Playing Days As Teams Tangle At Scott Coach Art Smith's chargers climax heir 1938 football campaign when they aokle a bewildered Soott eleven in the ulldog grid camp Saturday at 2:30 The Bears will be out to garner their rst loop victory to jump into the win column: however, the Bulldogs are sure lt won't be at their expense. Set back by a surprising rally staged by the Irish last week, the Maroons are anx- ious to get back on their feet. Eighteen senior boys will lay aside heir football togs after probably see- ng their last action in this final league ay. Coach Smith, absent from the side- lines in the Bears' last two encounters, :las recovered. Whipping his boys into shape for the stiff test, he will be there to see them through. The only change ,n the Blue and White lineup is Shaw at right guard. The remainder of the ,ine-up will find Cummins and Myneder at ends, Ted Nowak and Staehler at tackles, Lyman and Shaw filling in at guards and Gosciniak at the center post. The backfield will have Bankey it quarterback, Raczko and Kaminski at halves, and Langlois at fullback. Sternialski Favors Tigers, Cowboys For Weekly Guess The leading DeVilbiss Tigers enter- Jain a powerful Portsmouth squad to- morrow night on their home field. Port- smouth is rated to be exceptionally strong this season and should test the Tigers. I I U bu The most important of the Armistice Day offerings is the scrap between Waite and Libbey, the second place twins. Both teams are tied and the inal score will determine the possession of the position at stake. Due to past scoring victories, we gave the Cowboys a slight edge over the Waiters. Il ll i Central winds up its season schedule with a trip to Louisville for an Armi- stice afternoon set-to with DuPont Man- ual. The Irish seemed to have hit their stride from their exciting triumph over the Bulldogs last week, and should win their last football contest. Clay Highlights The feminine leader of Clay's 24 piece band nearly decapitated fbeheaded to youlher fellow members as she marched between the lines swinging her baton. I l O Zig Kaminski nearly put another gray hair into the coaching staff's heads as he just managed to recover his fumble after being hit hard when returning a h unt. Ill lk if Dave Mac Murray again assumed full :oaching responsibilities at the Clay game. Coach Art Smith viewed a por- :ion of the game but his ailment forced pim to leave after the first half. IK if i If Clark Gable hears of Ted Gosciniak's exploits which occurred on the bus after :he game, he would probably pay our Eiulky center to stay away from Holly- ood. Ted turned into an Appolo and Eiissed every team-mate in his happi- ess over the result of the fray. Reserves Win 38 To 0 Paul Lankenau's reserve charges hum- Jled the Frosh team by the top-heavy :ount of 38 to 0 in their annual set-to ast week. Led by Ernest Widlund, the ightweights dominated play through- rut the tilt, piling up six touchdowns ind two conversion.

Inquirin g Reporter The inquiring reporter asked various students what they do after a school activity, football game or a dance. Frank Hogg, senior: When I leave the football game, I usually go uptown and get a malted milk and then go home. Betty Phifer, sophomore: After I parade through the hamburger stands, I wait until license number 128 or 38SG comes along and ride home. Charles Harris, sophomore: I ride home with the football squad, and listen to them talk about their girls. Lurleen Sisco, senior: I just go along with the crowd to Kewpeefs. Betty Seim, freshman: My cheering doesn't end at a football game. I go rooting for Woodward all over town.

Ex-Football Player Speaks At Zet Mass Meeting Today The Zetalethean Literary society was in charge of the mass meeting third hour today. Dr. Edward Glowczewski, graduate of 1928 and former cheerleader and football player, was the guest speaker. A burlesque of Little Red Riding Hood, written by the Zet cabinet, was given. Those in the cast were Kate Braunsweiger, Little Blue Woodward, Phyllis Hendrickson, mother: Elaine Fiske, grandpappy, Helen Trautman, the wolf: Othelle Lloyd, Bunny, Marlyn Renz, squirrel: Virginia Skelding, wood- man: and Jennie Payak, announcer. All Zet members sang the alma mater song, written by Guy Sutphen, and the color song, by Anne Wetterman. Miss Dorothy Warner, co-adviser of the Zets, directed the program. Twelve Girls Acquire A's As Leaders' Class Has Test The first test of the year was given in leaders' class, October 31. Each girl took a 'fest on the rules of the sport with which she is helping. On the soccer test Frieda Fastemeier was the only one to receive an A. Celes- tiiie Szmorowski was next in line with a . Dorothy Wagner lead the girls who took the hockey test with the lone A of the group. The next highest grade was C, which was merited by Pauline Yeagle, Jean Douglas, and Helen Traut- mann. Ten girls were recipients of A's in the schlog ball exams. This list includes Bernice Landwehr, Othelle Lloyd, Phyllis Zarn, Violette Suzer, Wenola Cotton, Dorothy Kohne, Helen Maver- kos, Lola Nopper, Mary Taylor and Mildred Urban. Lillian Anselm was Kaminski carried the ball over on successive cut-back and end sweeps. Woodward received, and on the third play after the kick-off Bill Jackson, Clay tackle, caught a Bear fumble and ran thrity-five yards to the goal line. Jake Moritz plunged overfor the point. Clay came back in the second quarter as Snyder, their star performer, inter- cepted Mike Aunellois pass and ran to the Woodward 35. A completed pass to Snyder and several line thursts put the ball on Woodward's five, from where Moritz plunged into the end zone stand- ing up. At the opening of the third quarter, Anello threw an over-the-line pass to Bill Cummins who outstepped the secondary for the second Bear touch down. . Fourth quarter scoring was limited to 2 Woodward touchdowns. After work- ing the ball to Clay's one yard mark, the opposition held and kicked out of apparent danger to the Clay 35, but Kaminski threw a pass to Ernie Bankey in the end zone on the first play which put Woodward in the lead. - Not to be outdone. Mike Anello put on an exhibition of fine broken field running late in the game when he dash- ed 30 yards for the Bears' final score. All attempted conversions were missed, due to the extremety strong wind. Anello was the main reason for Wood- ward's victory with his fine passing and running. Benny Langlois, Bill Raczko, William Cummins and Ted Gosciniak played fine defensive games. 4Girls' Intra-Mural Teams Dropped From Competition Four teams have already been dropped from the girls' intra-mural tournaments, after having forfeited two games. These teams are the Ren- aissance, the Starlets, the L. A. Club, and the Snaps. Three teams have one forfeit counted against them: namely, the Bombshells, the Yams, and the Woodward Cubs. Members of the above mentioned teams that have been dropped, should get on another intra-mural team. This is necessary if they want to receive credit towards athletic awards for this sport. Catherine Berry Presented With Free Football Ticket For the second straight week a mem ber of the weaker sex has triumphed over all and brought home the bacon in the disguise ofa free ticket to the Bear Bulldog encounter, November 12. She is Catherine Berry who guessed 24-0. There were two 26-0 guesses and three 24-0 ones, but by the process of elimination, Catherine came out one ducat ahead.

'PALESTlNE, THE PROMISED LAND,' FORUM TOPIC fBy Lorraine Barnesj The Arabs have not been exploited 1 tion so that he may have his way in or suppressed by the Jews, but, on the contrary, helped by them, stated Dr. Abram Leon Sachar, the national direc- tor of the Hillel Foundation of Ameri- can Eniversities, when he discussed the topic, Palestine, the Promised Land before the Toledo Civic Forum Associa- tion last night. There are four reasons for the civil war now in progress in Palestine. First, there is the Arab nationalism. However, Dr. Sachar believes the Jews could solve this problem satisfactorily if it were not for the influence of Arab landowners, Nazis, and Fascists. The Arab landlord, who is like a feudal lord, resents the Jew's improvement of Palestine, because it has stirred his peasants to strive for higher standards of living. Therefore, these men foment the nationalism of young Arabs and arouse them against the Jews. Through radio broadcasts, Mussolini has further stimulated this patriotic feeling among the Arabs. His only rea- son for interfering is a desire to cause trouble for Britain and divert its atten- other parts of the world. Propaganda against the Jews is spread by Hitler. He has done this because, as the speaker remarked, he does not want Jews in his country, or out ofit, except in a box. Arabs and Jews could live together peacefully were it not for these outside infiuence which stir the Arabsa gainst the Jews. Because he was speaking on the twen- ty-first anniversary of the issuing of the Balfour Declaration in which Britain recognized the right ofthe Jews to have a homeland, Dr. Sachar showed skill- fully how the Jews had not jeopardized the rights of those already living in Palestine but had improved the land greatly. He made it clear that England had kept only one-eighteenth of the original promise in the Balfour Decla- ration and expressed the fear that, due to anti-Semite pressure, Britain would soon withdraw this document. The Jewish promise has been kept in the development of Palestine. I only hope the British promise may be kept. CASE IS RE COGNIZ ED Attractive Display On First Floor Contains Twenty- Eight Cups, Plaques Few Woodward students know or ap preciate the history of WcodWard's tro phy case, which is located in the north corridor, across from the auditorium. 1 Presented to Woodward in 1929 by the.

Let us now enumerate some of the benefits be- stowed upon us. You may say you have nothing for which to be grateful, and yet, stop and think, Isn't it grand to be alive and to live in this land of opportunity and freedom? Through his own efforts, anyone may raise himself above the ordinary standards to gain wealth or fame. Equal chance is afforded all, regardless of race, reli- gion, or social position. A boy of the slums may climb as high up the ladder of success as a son of the 400. Moreover, schools here are built to educate citi- zens, they are not institutions to train soldiers to be willing cannon fodder. We are not persecuted be- cause our religious beliefs are contrary to those of the man at the head of the government, or are we harassed because of the blood in our veins. We have freedom of speech, freedom of press, and other precious civil rights denied the people of many foreign countries. But, above all, we, the people, shoud give thanks that we have the controlling voice in our govern- ment. We live in a great democracy, in the United States of America! Before We Form An Opinion HERE has been some dissension as to the limiting of the cast of the senior class play to members of the Little Theatre Guild. A small minority in the class believes that the senior play should be open to any senior. Which side are we taking? Before we form an opinion, let's consider the problem a little more thoroughly. The Little Theatre Guild spends its time and materials in the production of the class play. Many hours- of -toil are spent by every member of the organization in constructing scenery and in learn- ing stage lighting. The scenery and all props used for the play are properties of the Little Thea- tre Guild. The members of this dramatic society are people who are interested in dramatics. They have given up the opportunity to join other clubs to further their interest in this work. We may all consider the advantages gained from a production by this experienced group. Cooperation Please ------- HE purpose of the newspaper is to print the newsg to print it before the news is stale. How- ever the school newspaper is handicapped be- cause of the long interval between each issue. Usually the news is broadcast around school be- fore the newspaper has a chance to scoop it. However, with the aid of the faculty and student body, this situation can be remedied. If the next time an election is held, an important announcement is made, or some other vital news occurs, the participants will kindly hold the news for the Tattler, it will be appreciated by everyone. The students will be benefited by receiving fresher newsland it will enable the paper to Write more effective news stories instead of itemized bulletins. ,H .... l i PRINCIPAL POINTS A On November 19, just seventy-five years 'I I ,',, ago, President Lincoln delivered his famous f Gettysburg speech. The day was dark and 5' . gloomy. Rain had fallen throughout the 1 I night, leaving the ground soft and sodden. l, The spirit of the crowds who came to hear X, and see the dedication ceremonies at this 'lf' huge battleield, now to become a Nation- al Cemetery, was in keeping with the day. The memories of the terrific slaughter in the three days' battle on this ground early in July were still too fresh and poignant to allow any but the keenest minds 10 see that the power of the South was definitely broken.Even these wise ones knew that the war would drag on, adding to the total suffering and misery. To Lincoln, whose deep sympathetic nature was al- ways attuned to the suffering of humanity, this day was doubly oppressive. Enemies in the North, togeth- er with the critics of all the war maneuvers, made his task extremely difficult. With his mind seething with thoughts of how to bring the War to a successful con- clusion, and deeply depressed by the death and con- fusion already wrought, Lincoln prepared to attend these dedicatory services. It is said that he prepared a formal speech and, dis- satisded with it, threw it away and on the way to the battlefield scratched out the now famous address on a scrap of stained paper picked from the floor of the railway coach. The above may or may not be true. We do know that Edward Everett, the most noted orator of the day, spoke for two hours just preceding Mr. Lincoln. We know that Mr. Lincoln spoke for only a few minutes and sat down amid opporessive silence. He felt that he had failed. Mr. Everett congratulated him on making a great speech, but it was only after the people all over the nation had read this simple, direct, and dignified dedicatory address that its true greatness was recognized. It has now become a classicg and wherever the English lanuage is spoken, this Gettysburg Address of Abraham Lincoln is held as the finest example of the mother tongue. Here in America we cherish it not only as a gem of simple, direct, and expressive diction but as an ever- lasting ideal of Democracy. Book-Nook Read Danger Is My Business for thrills, adven- ture,and humor. This autobiography by Captain John D. Craig worlds foremost deep sea diver and carn- erman, will interest those liking exciting stories. By dividing the book into two parts, Craig is able to describe his adventures in Asia and Africa while hunt- ing and taking pictures, and his progress in learning the fascinating ins and outs of deep sea diving. Of the beautiful, powerful, man-eating tiger, Rajah Pedapulle, considered almost a god by African natives, Craig said, Rajah was a gentleman until hunters made a heel of him, Devising a water-proof camera, John Craig descend- ed into the mysterious depths of the sea, an undis- covered continent. There is always the danger of being crushed to pulp by the terrific water pressure, or being killed by under sea monsters. After years of research Captain Craig invented a diving dress with no bother- some lines, which enabled him to descend to unknown depths. With his special equipment he has supplied the fyiorld with fascinating pictures of that beautiful wor . Plea From A Gradecard Dear Editor: How are you? I'm fine. I just came back from my vacation with some of the boys and girls. Most of the pupils introduced me to their folks and later in the evening as we sat around a cheery stove, the parents nudged each other and whispered to me dreams for their children. But all vacations must come to an end and as I sat in the office listening to the gossip of the other grade- cards, I was glad I went around with a smart student. Many less fortunate gradecards were in the hospital. It was rumored they were in an accident. Right next to me lies F gradecard QF isn't his real namel band- aged with bookbinding tape, old and bent. He looks years older. The student who received him hated him from the start because F carried poor grades. The Woodwardite jammed him into his pocket, a dirty repulsive hole, and forged his parent's name on the gradecard. Fellows, I'm not such a bad guy once you get to know me, and I can do you plenty of good. I like to work hard with someone and when I see him again I bring good cheer. He likes me! I become popular with his crowd. He and I both feel swell. Give me a chance! Come up to see me and say, Pal, I'm going to do everything I can to make you happy. Is that asking too much? Thanks, An honest gradecard.

I could peer into the confident faces of the tw. All-American tackles who were crouching, eage with eyes for the kill. The teams reared into motion. As the tense whispered signal was uttered, the ball was snappee back. The crowd cheered, jeered, and sneered. The two tackles charged. Their faces contortec with pent up emotion, arms greedily grasping tc tackle, to bring down, to break, to kill. They came closer, closer, closer---straight at me Cleated shoes ready to crunch my clammy sweai choked flesh to ribbons. Oh! How I wished I wer: home. Then the tackles dived, 400 pounds of driv ing energy concentrated on me. I couldn't stand it! No mortal man can stanc that battering of flesh and spirit.

Although they entered the game as :he underdogspthe Bears turned on the heat in the final half to decisively out- play the much-too-confident Scott con- tingent. With one minute remaining in the wst quarter, Don Renz recovered a oodward fumble to pave the way for 1 touchdown. Repeated end runs and line thrusts put the ball on the Bear :Wo-yard line from where Renz hurdled :he line for the score. Shutt converted iom placement. After intercepting a Woodward pass, ,cott drove to the Bear one yard stripe, arly in the second quarter, when oover plunged for Scott's second tally. hutt again converted. While batting down a pass, Hoover :ollided with John Myneder, receiving Vnbroken nose in the transaction. He Nas replaced by Dick Tucholski who scored Scott's final score on a forty ward dash off tackle. Woodward then came to life and juelled every Scott attempt for yardage.

Inquirin g Reporter What is your opinion of the Wood ward 1938-39 basketball team? Here are the opinions of several students picked up by the inquiring reporter. Dave Sliwinski, senior: What Woodward lacks in football, they make up doubly in basketball. This year the Bears will have a three place winner, city, district, and state. Mildred Boehler, senior: They will have a good team this year as in the past, as they have some good players left from last season. Jean Mills, Junior: Woodward will have one of the best teams in the city, and will have the s upport of the student body. G ene Pease, junior: We will place high in the city basketball race this season, and will go places in the district tournament. Donna Clouse, sophomore: I think Woodward will win all games they play if they keep the spirit of our Woodward High. Jim Tucker, sophomore: We will be good this year as they have some experienced players left from last season. We have a small, fast team which will be hard to stop. John Oswald, freshman: I think they will do their best to annex the city title, and the student body will be on hand to back them up. Virginia Gillette Awarded Ticket For Score Guessing What's this world coming to, men? For the third consecutive week amem- ber of the weaker f?j sex, has won score guessing. Virginia Gillette, Jim Valentine and Dave McNitt all devined the correct score of 20-6, and by the act of extraction from the well known derby, Virginia came out one ticket to the good. And now my pet prognosticators, excercise your premonitory powers, write the result on the missing blank, and deposit it in the box which will not be in front of 122. May you win the passport to the oontest on the second Friday of next week. .........................x.....,...................r.I...,.. A- .,,. ...L ...a.......a.

Blade Sports Editor Gives Contrasts In Speech To Hi-Y Boys The reason for the popularity of sports is the primitiveness in people, stated Bob French, Blade sports col- umnist, in a speech addressing the Wise Mens' club and the Woodward Hi-Y. That the players play under the ruling of the survival of the Httest as was the rule of the primitive man, and that the crowds act under primitive im- pulses, were statements of this eminent sportsman. Sportsmanship is very hard to define or explain. Modern sport is a tremendous thing from a commercial standpoint. There are more great football players today than there were years ago, Mr. French declared. Today, coaches have a wider variety and more numerous prospects from which to select, and can, therefore, be more choicy. The explana- tion of the splendid records for brilliant playing in the past is the fact that the former players had less competition. Baseball Quality Declines That baseball isn't as good today as thirty years ago, when every team had an abundance of great stars, was the opinion of the speaker. In the old days, the managers ofteams held to the policy that once a man is down, he's out. There weren't as many comebacks tolerated as in present times. In football, every game is a crisis, and there is a lot depending upon each combat. This is not so in baseball. In baseball, a game is just a game unless under unusual circumstances, such as a world series game. Baseball managers are quite different from each other, and no one knows exactly what makes a good baseball manager or a football coach. After the speech, questions were ask- ed, and upon request, Mr. French announced his reasons why Woodward hasn't a winning football team. First he declared, A team must have a spirit and tradition of winning. Also, he believes that Woodward's material is not good enough.

Approximately twenty boys are practising daily in the boy's gym from 2:30 to 5:30 in preparation for the opener of the season scheduled for Dec. 9th with the Sylvania cagers. However all these boys will not make the team for Homer Harham intends to carry a squad of 10 to 12 players. Last year the Polar Bears placed fourth in the city loop and captured the Northwest District honors. This year only 4veterans are returning from that team. Coach Hanham will probably build his team about: Ted Nowak, Will Copeland, Ted Klonowski, and Ziggy Kaininski. The most important of the rules in- troduced for 1938-39 basketball compe- tition allows the offensive player to remain in the front half of the foul circle indefinitely when he is not in possesionof the ball. When the player has the ball he is subject to the three second rule. Other minor additions in- clude: calling a foul if the team takes six time-outs, adding two feet to each end of the floor, and putting a jump ball into play six feet from the side line or end zone- The 20 boys who are practising at the present are: Bill Haiielder, Al Davis, Ted Klonowski, VV. Copeland, Ziggy Kaminski, Chuck McFarland, John Myneder, Ted Nowak, Minor Campbell, Casimir Pawlicki, Ted Gosciniak, George Jacobs, Bill Cummins, Ernest Kwiatkowski, Frank Hogg, and Howard Sahadi. Questionnaires Give First Impression Of Gir1's Gym Freshman girls' gym classes were re- cently given a questionnaire about their first impressions, likes and dislikes, and their criticisms of the gym and the sys- tem used to run it. In regard to first im- pressions, most of them expressed com- plete approval. Among the answers giv- en were: I enjoy the fun and compan- ionshipf' It gives you a chance to let loose twice a week. It takes your mind off your studies? 'Alt gives you a chance to get some good, fresh air. Some of the dislikes on the papers were about the short gym hours, dress- ing in shorts, and not being in squads with your friends. Among the construct- ive criticisms offered were suggested that less time be used for taking atten- dance, that captains should be elected more often, that there should be more of a variety in the games, and that a chance should be given the girls to get acquainted before choosing squad cap- tains. One of the more humorous remarks was aoomplaint that hardly any water comes out of my shower and if there is any, it's only a drizzle. One girl won- dered how many gyms there were and how much it was going to cost. Another girl liked the gym because it is big enough to kick a ball as hard as you want but it should be higher, because the ball hits the rafters and is called 'foul'. On one paper was a remark that wearing green suits is sort of screwyf' Several papers included complaints of the stuck-up seniorsl' while one stu- dent disapproved of our losing football team. 1, ----- - ---QIQETEW---.W - -, ---,-- Mglgvrnnyaw,-.7 THE WOODWARD TATTLER , rv, l l 1 w TAT-WARDS The Polish Drama club, under the di- rection of Mieozyslaw Friedal, will give itslthird and last production of the sea- son in the auditorium on December 1.

When production is low distribution cost are low. When there is overproduc- tion, distribution cost are raised because of the expense of increased sales pres- sure. Consumer unions are undermining our economy because they reduce the amount of labor in order to cut costs. They also lower the amount of special- ization and mutual dependence of all types of labor, Mr. Hahn stated. We would create additional destitute people by the two price system, the speaker prophesied. He explained his statement by telling of the cotton sur- plus problem of the South. The gov- ernment through loans, controls about ten million bales of cotton while the total, yearly, domestic consumption is five million bales. A bale is worth about S40 but has a production cost of from S200 to S1000 to be made avail- able to the consumer. If the cost of finished goods is low, labor or pro- duction costs must be low. This is the gape between surplus and undercon- sumption. The speaker summarized with this statement: The forces of business have not in the past fully understood our economic problem, but they are now ready to take leadership . Mr. Hahn isa member of the Advisory and Planning Council of the United lStates Department of Commerce. He was President, Chairman, and later General Manager of the Hahn Depart- ment Store. During 1934 and 1935 under the N. R. A, Mr. Hahn was chairman of the National Retail Code authority.

Eugene Lyons Speaks On Russia At Town Hall By Rose Shemas Americans who labor under the illusion that Fascism is fighting Com- munism, and for that reason is preferable, need be warned that Fascism is only the other side of the same metal, with no rights for the individual in either, warned Eugene Lyons, foreign correspondent, when he spoke on What's Going On In Russia Now , before Town Hall, November 12. He urged that we regard our liberties, obtained through centuries of struggle, as an heritage to defend. In sighting a few of the basic changes in Russia today, the author of Assignment in Utopia mentioned the following: Q11 the revival of a spirit of nationalism, accomplished by a revival of folklore and legendryg Q23 a re- treat of cultural and political advancement - in order that a country may be stable, it must be conservative, C35 a centralized totalitarian type of government similar to fascism - a small group makes the decisions, which are developed by speeches, etc., on the outsideg Q41 the abandonment of socialism-wages are differentiated and the entire dream of equality has been abandoned. Stalin is a combination of the fanaticism of Hitler and the cool sense of maneuvering and controlling people possessed by Mussolinifi observed Mr. Lyons. The governments of Italy, Germany, and Russia all may be termed collective estates of feudal control. The puries carried on in Russia represent the elimination of men and women who still adhere to the ideals of the revolutions. Their trials, whose single purpose is to prove their guilt, are used as demonstrations to frighten other patriots who might revolt. The Russian Revolution has struck a blow at the divine rights of capital even as the French Revolution struck a blow to monarchy, asserted Mr. Lyons. He stated that the basic ideas of the Russian Revolution have made a lasting impression on our minds as have those of previous revolutions. Mr. Lyons' topic was especially pertinent since the twenty-second an- niversary of the Russian Revolution was celebrated November 7, and the 1Armistice, November 11. 0 li i'.22a.ii.:..-t.:., .. ...Y . ..

Mr Bland- g was the speaker at Town Hall on lliturday, November 26. Many of places he has visited in his extensive travels throughout the South- ern Pacific islands have inspired his voems. He mentioned Hawaii as an deal place for travel since it is un- cathed by the hate and suspicion that versists in Europe and Asia. Explaining that the mermaid and Permen were imaginary characters freated by man because of his desire o live in the depths of the sea likethe ishes, the centaur because he wished 0 travel as swiftly as the horse, and he angel because he wanted to fly like he birds, the poet declared that he had 'ealized the first two of these ambitious E: sudmarines and autos, and the last the magnificent clipper. In order to express his ideas more ex- ilicitly, Mr. Blanding recited many of mis poems, including The Rest of the Eoadj' Oddly Enough, and The ,ruise of the Spun-Glass Ship. Paul Schimmel. Andrews' Discourse My party was the first ever to dis' :over dinosaur eggs, stated Dr. Roy Ihapman Andrews, distinguished Asi- Ltic explorer and director of the Amer- can Museum of Natural History. Another addition to his discoveries luring the ten year expedition is the reluchitherium, a mammoth reptile that ived in prehistoric times. The trip through the Gobi Desert in Vlongolia was made by motor and :amel caravans with no means of com- unication with the outside world. ecause of the inaccuracy of maps and , aphs, topographic work had to be vregared by engineers in the party. rom recent reports of the Chinese- lapanese war it seems doubtfulwhether auch an expedition would be wise to undertake, concluded Dr. Andrews. Rose Worshtil. Wells Likes U. S. The one thing I have been taught in y years of travel is that the United tates is the only country in the world orth living in, asserted Linton Wells, amous foreign correspondent, when he lddressed an attentive Town Hall audi- ence November 19. Mr. Wells is now engaged in a project sponsored by N.B.C. o increase American prestige and trade n Latin America, which is being over- 'un by Fascist and Nazi propaganda. Having lived under dictators for many rears, the former newspaper man is 1onvinced that the only thing they res- nect is a display of force. He feels we hall not be able to compete with isms until we can show the dictators that we Lre prepared to use the greatest army, navy, and air force in the world to pro- ect the United States.

OO MANY students wandered about the halls, complaints were made to the Student Council, and our hall patrol system resulted. That's past history. Recently, it was noticed that the students on hall patrol were becoming lax in their requests to sce hall passes. For definite proof, records were made of those hall patrols who asked for passes and those who did not. It was found that approxima- tely twenty-five percent made up the former group. That's current history. Now let's consider the future. Will it be necessary to envolve some new formula to eliminate wandering students? We think not. It's an individual, not a group, problem. The sim- ple solution is for each hall patrol solemnly to regard it as his duty to make certain that each person who passes in front of him has a right to be in the halls. Unless a hall pass is plainlydisplayed by the passing student, it is the guard's job to ask for one. If each student serving as a hall patrolman ap- plies himself thusly, the report in the future can't help but be, Hall patrol---alert and efficient. Lest We Forget E CAN do better than this, can't we? Only eight needy families received Thanksgiving baskets from a few thoughtful Woodward organizations. Countless others who were in dire need of help got nothing because the rest of us for- got. Let's makea resolution to improve this condition on Christmas, to try to make up for our forgetting to remember on Thanksgiving. Plan now to play Santa Claus for some poor family by bring them a Christmas basket. Come On, Gang EXT WEEK the basketball season begins. We all are acquainted with the caliber of basket- ball Woodward presents to its fans. The team gives a thrilling performance at each game. This year promises to be one of the best in Woodward's history. The quintet is composed of fellows capable of providing a tough game for any opponent. , Let's show the players that We're with them. Who knows? We may win the city championship. We Thank Thee E WOULD like to express our appreciation to our principal, C. C. LaRue, and to Miss June Anderson, art instructor, who arranged the art museum trips which first began two years ago. Through their efforts, every student of Woodward was given a chance to visit the museum on some date during the school year. Again this year, the freshman class will make tours of the museum at intervals throughout the school term. These trips will be of great benefit to students who have not as yet had an opportunity to visit Toledo's cultural center, and to those who have been unable to become better acquainted with the stores of educational advantages contained in it. Hearing tests have just been completed at Wood- ward. I hope that every student made use of this opportunity and had his hearing tested. Defects in hearing are first noticed when the child starts to school. Head colds cause more ear trouble than any other condition. The contagious diseases---measles, scarlet fever, diph- teria, etc., all produce throat infections which travel by way of the Eustachian tube to the middle ear. This infection may become very serious, ending in ab- scess of the ear, mastoiditis or even meningitis. Other conditions endangering hearing are injuries to the ear and ear drum, diseased tonsils and adenoids, untreated head colds, neglected earaches, and accumu- lation of wax. If you have a cold accompanied by fever, go to bed. Do not blow the nose forcibly as this tends to force the infection up the Eustachian tube into the middle ear. Blow the nose gently, holding the handkerchief a quarter of an inch from the nose. Do not use a nasal douche unless your physician has prescribed it. Do not allow an ear abscess to break. If you do, the ear drum heals with scarred tissue which does not vibrate and your hearing will be affected. Adenoids and tonsils disturb hearing in two ways. If they are large, they obstruct the opening into the Eu- stachian tube, and the air pressure is not equal on each side of the drum. They also may act as a culture media for the growth of bacteria. If these conditions exist, removal of these parts is advised. The eardrum is often injured by slapping or pulling the ear forcibly or by loud explosions. There is also danger of injury by removing the ear wax with a pin or other sharp object. Remove with a bit of cotton wound around a match. Never put soap in the inner ear. Use only for external cleansing. Wax may also be removed by irrigating the ear with warm water and baking soda fone teaspoonful in a glass of watery. Do not force water into the ear. Serums should be used to prevent the contagious diseases, thus eliminating that source of infection. Often a piece of cotton in the outer ear will prevent an earache. Relief may be obtained for earache by placing a hot water bottle to the ear. Discharging ears should have medical attention. Any person with impaired hearing should learn lip reading so that he may be able to understand people if he ever loses his hearing. Any person with impaired hearing, if he will con- tact the League for the Hard of Hearing, will be given information of classes for lip reading. Is This You? The attitude of some of Woodward's students to education is peculiar. You might call it paradoxical, but it is perfectly consistent. He says to his instruc- tors, in effect: As abusily growing animal I am scatter-brained and entirely lacking in mental application. Having no desire at present to expend my precious energies upon the pursuit of knowledge, I shall not make the slightest attempt to assist you in your attempts to impart it. If you can capture my unwilling attention and goad me by stern measures into the requisite activity, I shall dislike you intensely, but I shall respect you. If you fail, I shall regard you with the contempt you deserve, and probably do my best, in a jolly, high- spirited way, to make your life a hell upon earth. And what could be fairer than that? from Housemasters, by Ian Hay. Corridor North--Our auditorium is spacious and grand. There we all flock to hear the school band.

My name had never been in the gossip column of the Tattler andl had never encouraged friendliness. Then one day my life changed completely. I saw HER. I was running home from school and was in mg front yard when I looked up. There she was. Shi looked up. There I was. Then we started to wall away--together. It was love at first sight. She was really beauti ful, with green eyes and matching blond hair. B5 the way she walked, I knew she was a thorough bred. It seemed that she was my one and only. Buoy ant and light-hearted I ate, slept, and worked witl: her face before me. Life was truly wonderful. After supper we would go for a walk and as we strolled down the streets I told her my ambitions and she encouraged me. Yet most of the time We rarely talked, for love is a silent language. X At last after pondering and debating the questio in my mind, I decided to tell my mother the whol story. I told my mother I could support my love, It was decided that she would move into our housel And so we had a cat in the family. l Our Interpretation , You Can'tATake It With You--notes that are sorely needed at a history quiz.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER GRAD Gossip l The following paragraphs are taken from the letter sent to W. F. Rohr and E. R. Rike by Alexander Ewanchuk, who is at the U. S. Naval Training Station, Newport, R. I. - ' Tomorrow will be an eventful day for me. Our entire company will be given an educational test. The test covers all phases of a good high school education. One's future in the Navy is largely in- fluenced by the grade on the test. My years of math and mechanical drawing will prove of great value. I have discovered a great deal since I have left high school. I am beginning to see the connection between the var- ious subjects taught in high school which students overlook in their grumb- lings. The following is one of many ex- amples.Guns made for our modern Navy require knowledge of physics and math- ematics, and mechanical drawing is used extensively. Ability to explain the pro- cess of making the gun requires a good knowledge of English. I am glad that during my four years of high school, I mastered my studies to the best of my ability. - I l I Ralph Brott, graduate of '36, has es tablished himself in the barbering busi- ness, with a special on scalp treatments If ll U Grace Heffner, Woodward grad, is the proud owner of a bakery shop. 3 F 1 Skippy Boykin, former Woodward basketball star, is happily married.

CHARLIE McCARTHY FAN IS INTERVIEWED Mr. Rike I'd rather look on a smiling face than one etched in gloom, thinks Elmer Roy Rike, mathematics instructor. He is one of the few teachers who tells really funny jokes to his classes. He has been with Woodward since it originated in 1919 at the site of the girls' Vocational high school. Re-exam- ining the passing parade of feminine life, this instructor decided that the modern girl is much more attractive than her sister of a decade ago. In the earlier days of Woodward, the boys judged each other by the num- ber of classes they skipped, now this spirit has changed. Pupils are now classed according to their grades, joked the mathematics teacher. Elmer Rike follows by radio the foot- ball games of Harvard, Columbia, Mich- igan, and Ohio Wesleyan University. The latter awarded him an athletic med- al enabling him t0 be seated on the 50 yard line at any game in which the school participates. This privilege has never been exercised. The depression will come to an end sometime, and Woodward will have a championship football team soon, is one of his favorite sayings. A record of the honors that come to the pupils who have been in his classes is kept by this faculty member. He likes Harold Lloyd, the late Will Rogers, Clarence B. Kelland, Charlie McCarthy, Chub De Wolfe, and Jack Warwick. VOX POP To Play Or Not To Play Dear Editor: Why can't our band play at the basket- ball games? Other high school bands in the city do it,why can't ours? After all, what good is the band if we can't hear it! The music will add to the enthusiam and color of the crowd. Surely there is plenty of room in the gym to accomo- date about forty band members as our gym has the largest high school seating capacity in the city. I know that alarge percentage of the student body will ba,ck me up on this request. How about it. Loretta Ignatowski Here's To ----- Woodward 'Tis character that means the most For this our day and time, There Woodward high school stands foremost, And fits us for trials sublime. Into our classwork we enter Mathematics and history to learn, And English we ought to remember, Each used everyday in its turn. There's science and music and typing, Our capable tearchers all say These, too, are necessities to living If we travel the successful way. Studies at times may seem dreary And lessons to be learned are hard, But by plodding, though we became weary, - We shall gain the well-earned reward. Ethel Henneman, junior Four Luches Given Free Mrs. Cecil Ashbrook, head of the Cafe' teria, has announced that four lunches, two each period, will be given free each day to the student whose check will reveal one of the serial numbers posted. Inquiring Reporter Today's Question: What is your opin ion of the arrangement now being employed of clubs meeting after school instead of the usual third hour? Miss McDonough: I think this method has proved very satisfactory, and has been quite successful in so far as the Municipal club is concerned. How ever, its chief defect to some is tha1 many students are employed aftei school, and it is quite impossible foi Adams Township students to attent the meetings. Edward Komisarek, junior: In m5 opinion, third hour was a more popu lar arrangement, as it made it more convenient for students working aftel school to attend their regular clul meetings. Perry Martz, junior: Holding club meet ings after school is a very satisfacto ry arrangement, and my only ob jection is the inconvenience to stu dents holding positions after school!

Bob, enacted by Walter Andreeff, who is spending his vacation at the sanitar- ium, and also hurries there herself to explain before Bob meets Honor. The letter is lost and found by Rainbow, the colored servant, portrayed by Harley ' Lucas, who can neither read nor write. In the meantime, Philip, a young , ranch owner, played by Bob Miller, has become interested in Honor and plans a trick involving a Mexican rustler, Dalton Hille, which turns out to be the real thing.

Vandals To Be Penalized Because of the behavior of various students, Charles C. LaRue has given consent to the Student Council to put a heavy penalty on any student found destroying or marking up the school building. Recently, walls have been disgrace- fully defaced and rest rooms have been damaged. Department Integration Takes Place In Woodward The act of killing two birds with one stone is exemplified in Woodward by the integration of departments which is taking place at the present time. Mrs. Mary O'Brien's physiology class- es are studying the digestive tracts of the human body, the chemistry depart- ment, taught by C. E. Staneart, is pre- paring the material to be used by the science class. Members of the physiol- ogy classes will then give demonstra- ons to the home economics department. Not to be outdone in this game ofngive and take, the Red Cross girls have been making quilt blocks under the direction of Mrs. O'Brien. These blocks will then be used by the students of Mrs. Laura Adams, sewing instructor, to make a quilt. Finally, the quilt will be given to Miss Grace Cronk, welfare director, who will donate it to some needy family. It all goes to prove that Woodward is just one big happy family. J...

As a tribute to the labor of the Glee Club, let's all be there. A Word To The Wise--- UIDED by the old adage, There's no time like the presentf, we take this opportunity to speak to the freshmen of Woodward concern- ing the courses they are studying. Now is the time for you to make certain that the studies you are taking are the ones you need to give you the 16 credits necessary for your gradua- tion. Another point to watch carefully is whether or not you are majoring and minoring in the cor- rect subjects in your particular case. If you do find some mistake in your course of study, you will be given the opporlfunity after Christmas, at the beginning of the new semester, to change your schedule, and to start off on the right foot. Our Xmas Issue--- We Hope You Like It--- OMING from behind our serious masks and important ideas, we're going to talk a little about our paper, if you'll excuse the egotism. Now, all set for a man-to-man talk. You students are clamoring for something new, something different, something alive! We endeavor to do this as much as possible, but you must realize that we are handicapped in certain respects. However, we have the opportunity, now, to do some revolutionizing This is an extra photo- graphic sheet to be placed between the pages of the regular Tattler. This idea has proved very popular in other schools, and is made possible here through the co-operation of the newly formed Camera club. Our first edition will be ready for the Christmas issue.Now, we need your support to put it across. Why The Congestion? AVE you ever noticed the crowded condition of Woodward's halls and stairs? While it is true some of this crowding is unavoidable because of the many students enrolled in the school, much of the congestion could be eliminated. However, the problem would be solved only if everyone observed the common rules of courtesy. For instance, football tactics should be discouraged as well as the habit of stopping abruptly in the middle of the halls and steps to gossip with friends. If all resolved to consider the other fellow in this matter of behavior, it is certain Woodward halls would emerge unobstructed and orderly. PRINCIPAL POINTS V In the November issue of School Man- ' I agement is a little article entitled Don't if , Rush to College. It is a series of quota- D G , fi tions from a pamphlet edited by Dr. Mer- , ton E. Hill of the University of California. , ,S , ti X , fi This pamphlet is in the nature of advice - 5 ' or counsel to prospective students seeking - A higher education. Dr. Hill states three very good reasons for his advice, Don't Rush to College. First: Some students Pay find it necessary to stay out a year or two in order to earn money to go on with their education. Second: Quite often students graduate from high school too young to enter college immediately, a maturity of mind is a decided asset. Third: Working for a year or two may furnish just the sort of experience necessary for students to find suitable careers. This is excellent advice and our prospective gradu- ates should at least consider it. Something of the same type of advice should be given to pupils already in high school. Don't rush through high school is a good slogan. For example, a pupil for some reason or other fails certain subjects. If, instead of adding these subjects to his already full schedule, he came an extra semester or an extra year to high school, he would be much better off at the end of his school career. Since pupils in the grades are failed by years in- stead of subjects, there has grown up an almost un- breakable tradition that a pupil and his family are disgraced forever if he does not pass on to the next grade with his classg consequently sick or well, dumb or intelligent, the pupil must for the sake of appear- ance and family reputation graduate from high school in four years. If the average or below average pupil comes down to the senior year and needs six subjects per semester for graduation, he would be much better oil' to take an extra year for the work and really learn something instead of just amassing a number of low marks. For Seniors Only T Frank Wright and the twin are still sipping sodas from the same straw. 1 ak K Much merriment is provoked when the romantir scenes of the senior class play are rehearsed eacl' night after school.

While the king is a perennial visitor, his will be the first time that a Burn- nam team has invaded our lioor. Last rear, however, in the district tourna- nent at Toledo University, the Bears ubdued Sylvania by the close score of I4-23. Hanham's Record The Burnham game will mark the tart of the fourth year with Homer :lanham at the helm ofthe varsity.His 'ecord is most encouraging. His first year ,1935-36, being the most uccessful, Coach Hanham's boys cap- ure both the city and district champ- onships but met defeat in the second ame of the state tournamsnt. That ear, his charges won twenty contests while losing only two. In '37, under his mentorship, the Polar bears were victorious in nine games and ,ropped seven. Our cagers went throu- 'h a like season last year after setting hot pace in the first half of the city eague race, besides taking the district itle. Thus during his period of coaching he varsity, Homer and his squads have ompiled a record of thirty-eight wins gainst sixteen losses for a fine .704 per- entage. For his starting lineup, Coach Hanham as chosen Klonowski and Copeland at Jrwards, Kaminski and Gosciniak at uards, and Hafielder at center. Reserves Start Coach Dave Mac Murray's light weights also will make their debut when hey face the Sylvania seconds in the reliminary at seven o'clock. Last year, the reserves completed heir season in a second place tie with libbey. They hada record of seven 'ins and five losses. ,Although his entire starting lineup 'om last year is gone, Coach MacMur- ay has many replacements and will ut the following team on the floor: Qwiatkowski and Hughes, guards, Cschke and MacFarland, forwards, d Gigliutti, center. ,Reserves who will probably see ac- .on are, Hersch, Koster, Prysbszys, lima, Sahadi, and Williams.

LECTURE ON BRITAIN GIVEN AT TOWN HALL Hector Bolitho Believes U. S. England Should Become More Friendly By Virginia Iwanski Since the days of Queen Victoria, monarchs of Britain have been close to the people in their simplicity of living and thought, declared Hector Bolitho, Town Hall speaker on December 3. Why England still has a king was a question he endeavored to answer. To Mr. Bolitho the monarchy is the spirit behind the English laws. He pointed out that no institution has ever cared for the poor as well as the monarchies. Contrasting the old type of absolute monarchy of the days of Frederick the Great and Maria Theresa with the present limited monarchy, he showed why Britain still retains a king. In explaining the Englishman's con- ception of the relationship between his country and the United States, Mr. Bo- litho stated that during the last six months there has been an increase of feeling in the statement, that by reducing distance, misunderstanding would be reduced. He believes that we must be friends, because so much de- pends on our friendship. The people of the two countries are fundamentally alike, Mr. Bolitho be- lieves, both fighting for the same stand- ards and both trying to govern minor- ities without oppression. Both countries are going in the same direction.

E. L. Clark, head of the science depart ment in Woodward, reported today that several students were eligible to com- pete for the award, which will be pre- sented in June to the student who has made the greatest progress in science during his high school career. Both boys and girls are eligible. A survey of the award committee shows a distinct tendency, Mr. Clark said, for pupils who rank high in their graduating classes to rank high in college freshman tests and to follow these tests with high marks in college. Member Of Narcotics Squad Gives Woodward Comment There have been no reports of any Woodward high school students having used marihuana or heroin, stated Wil- liam Fisk, member of the narcotic squad, when asked if high school stu- dents had been found using the drugs. Woodward is one of the cleanest schools in the city. Mr. Fisk explained how the deadly marihuana cigarettes could be recog- nized by their heavy brown paper, coarse grind, and nauseating odor. Peddlers are usually Mexicans. Heroin comes from poppies and is smuggled in from Asia. The drug habit when acquired can not be broken. happier this Christmas as a result of the untiring efforts of Miss Grace Cronk, welfare director, and the generosity of various organizations of Woodward. Miss Cronk gave each club, home- room, or any other organization re- questing to help, the name of a needy family. Both food -and clothing were contributed by these groups. Among the clubs which are aiding in this welfare work by preparing baskets are Zetalethean, Periclean, and Polish Literary societies, Girls' Athletic League, and the Municipal club. Homerooms of Miss Warner, Miss Abair, Mrs. Upp, and Miss Tobin are also taking part. Included in this list are Miss Coy's home nursing group, the Library association, Miss Kellogg's first hour dramatics class, and Mr. Mont- gomery's printing classes. Clothing, candy, and toys are to be the gifts of Mr. Skinner's classes,while the Red Cross will purchase clothing as their contribution. The P. T. A. will fur- nish speotacles for those who need them. Money, clothing, or other contribu- tions pupils wish to make may be taken to Miss Cronk or to Mrs. Opal Barley in the office. The need of clothing is very acute during this time of year. Two Woodward Grads Named In '39 Edition Of Who's Who Two Woodward graduates, now sen- iors at Toledo University were recently honored by being named to the 1939 edition of Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities by the Stu- dent Counci'.

This is truly the opportunity for the charitable to take pleasure in bringing joy to the needy, the op- portunity for everyone to show the affection to per- sons in all walks of life. Little do we realize how deeply the poor of the nation feel when they are denied the joy of giving simply because they have nothing to give. Life without sharing is beyond our comprehension. It is hard to understand those who refuse to give to others who have less than they. Even though Christmas is observed by different races at different times in our year, still its recog- nition is an indication of its universal adoption as a day of peace on earth and good will to all men. In 1939 HEN we next return to school, 1939 will be here. With the coming of the new year, we again make our annual resolutions and turn over the traditional new leaf. To make the best of what we have should rank number one among our resolutions. This should in- clude our possessions and privileges in school as well as in private life. At a great cost to taxpayers, splendid educational opportunities are being offered to all boys and girls. During 1939 and the years to come, let us resolve to re a those who have invested in our future b I P Y Y taking advantage of school training to become good, intelligent citizens.

Christmas In Peaceful Valley 'Twas Christmas Eve in Peaceful Valley, as glistening snowflakes fell, And old folks gathered 'round the fire to hear the old church bell. Laughter echoed through the mountains as the stroke of midnight tolled And shining angels flitted downward, touching the earth with magic gold. While grandmother rocked by the open hearth, with memories ofthe past, A Stranger walked among the mountains, blessing those who cared to ask. He'd traveled far this Christmas eve in His quest for love and peace, And from His heart there came to the land a unity never to cease. Thus grandmother rocked by the cheerful fire, with dreams of a kingdom unknown, As through eyes wet with tears she dimly could see our Savior sad and alone. And He saw the old church at the village square, with youngsters joyously gay, And He longed to walk in the midst of the throng until the break of day. He rose from His Paradiseg earthward He came, amid angels hovering near, Implanting the seed of undying love in our hearts for the coming year. And, still today, on Cristmas Eve, as shimmering snow- flakes fall, We feel God's presence in our hearts as His love envel- opes all. --June Knowles.

WOODWARD DOWNS SYLVANIA BURNHAM Reserves Drop Second Game To Tiffin Columbian By 23-21 Score Woodward's reserves got off to a similar start as the varsity, winning from Sylvania Burnham 11 to 9, and dropping their contest to Tiffin 23 to 21. A free scoring contest was played at Tiffin with the Columbian seconds edg- ing the Bear reserves in the final minute of play. Possible victory was in sight for Woodward when Diok Kos- ter sank a goal to even the score at 23 points. However, the referee called steps on the play and the game ended seconds later. Koster led the Bears with eight points while Vince Gigliotti bucketed five markers. MacFarland played a good defensive game at guard, and was cap- tain for the evening. Topple Sylvania Two tight defenses were pitted against each other when Woodward re- serves met Sylvania. The result was a low-scoring contest with Woodward emerging the victor, 11-9. Charles MacFarland made three points to pace the Bear offense and Koster, Przybycz and Haddad followed with two each. Kream Haddad's fine defensive play was the outstanding factor in the Bear's win. Game Highlights Two familiar Hgures, Al Alvarez and Pat Hintz, members of the T.U. basket- ball squad, were referees of the Sylvania- Woodward lightweight game. Their mentor, Harold Anderson, was the robber in the varsity tilt. l I Q Since the totals of the Bowling Green games were received too late for this edition, they will appear in the Tattler of January 13.

KALTENBORN , VISITS TOLEDO Woodwardite Gets Personal Interview of Noted Announcer By Jane Searles There is still a danger from radio censorship, commented Hans von Kal- tenborn in an interview before his lec- ture to the Toledo Civic Forum, Thurs- day night, December 15. Mr. Kaltenborn, former editor and radio commentator, was for twenty-five years the editor of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. He lectures annually at Columbia University, New York Town Hall, and the Brooklyn Arts and Sciences Club. Perhaps he is most famous for his in- terpretation of the recent Czechoslovak- ian crisis, when he was on the air over a hundred times. Broadcasting the battle of Irun in Spain from behind a haystack, and be- ing captured by Chinese bandits who were about to shoot him for a Commu- nist, are what Mr. Kaltenborn considers his most thrilling experiences. Last Thursday night finished his lec- ture tour. He has now gone home to Long Island to spend his Christmas va- cation with his six months old grand- daughter. His advice to young interviewers is, Keep asking questions. Highlights From Forum Speech If there were a war, Germany could not last more than six months. They have neither the morale, materials, army, nor the desire to follow their dictator. if 'F lk The United States can determine the victor of the next war by deciding to which nations she will sell her pro- ducts. I 1 I The Chinese have too much national unity to succumb to Japan in the cur- rent war. ak IF IK Hitler has a one track mind. He can't converse, he only orates. U 1 U Chamberlin is a born negotiator, but the recent European crisis was a job too big for him to handle. To this day he isn't positive of what Hitler said at the Bershtesgaden parley for he went there without an interpeter. i i l Contrary to public opinion, Italy never said she would stand by Germany in the advent of a war. The only state- ment released by Mussoliniwas Ifwar comes, Italy has chosen the side on which she stands. It is improbable that Italy would join with a nation that is in such a hopeless situation as Germany is. Chamberlain brought back a paper signed by Hitler that Germany would not start war, and then immediately told the House of Commons that Eng- land must arm as they never have before.

Cisek Receive First Honors In 'Oh Doctor' Portraying the leading roles of Oh Doctor, the opperetta presented by the Glee Club on December 16, Frances Cisek and Bob Miller were entitled to first honors. Both were in excellent voice, and their dramatic preformances were convincing. Honorable mention should be made of Edith Waltershied's preformance of a famous movie actress. Her vocal solc, was one of the high spots of the pro- gram, as was the per ectly assumed Mexican dialect of George Jaschke. However, the proverbial show steal- er was Harley Lucas, whose portrayal of lazy colored servant was so convinc- ing that most people mistook his real identity. Fine performances were also turned in by Gene Pease, and Betty Stadler. Clarence Ball, glee club director, should be recognized for his direction of this fine production.

Q - The Bane Of Our Lives ERT close, in fact too close for the peace of mind of hundreds of Woodwardites, is exam- mation week. Unfortunately, we must come down to earth after the whirlwind of gayety of the holiday season, and settle once more into the pattern of school life. Almost immediately upon our return, we come to the most difhcult part in this pattern, which is, of course, examinations. To many of us, this means seclusion behind locked doors where we can do some last minute crammingg to others it means simply review of lessons that we have studied every day, and to many students, it means another vacation, for some have worked hard for the A and B grades which automatically exempt them from exams. Regardless of which class we may fall into, let's all resolve to work harder and to try to improve in the coming semester. To Seniors ENIORS, attention! Next week Thursday your class play will be presented. The Late Christ- . opher Bean promises to supply an evening of enjoyable entertainment to all. To make the performance as fine as possible, members of the cast, production staff, and play committee have spent much time attempting to produce a splended play. Because this dramatization is a class project, your duty to your class should be acknowledged by your support of the affair. Seniors, boost the senior class play. The Place For Us--- ORD has just been received that themports' manship trophy will be awarded again this year. Each year we are near the top of the list. Bat that's not the place for us. We belong at the top. The best is none too good for us. Remember that nothing miraculous is expected of us. Just common courtesy will do the trick. Remember: safety first makes life last.

In the three contests played, e varsity defeated Sylvania and the Bobcats of Bowling Green while losing to iffin Columbiang the lightweights edged Sylvania and lost to Tiffin and B. G. The varsity presented by Bowling5L reeln was small but fast and provided :iff competition until the Polar Bears tarted clicking in the second half. Re- ntering the game at this stage with Yoodward leading 16-12, the Bears uickly pulled away and built up an leven point lead when the last quarter egan. Bill Copeland walked off' with top :oring honors, connecting for nine oints as Klonowski and Kaminski allowed with six points apiece.

National Bowlers Trounce Scottg In Second Position As a result of th ei r three-game victory over the Scott bowlers, the Woodward Nationals are only one game behind first place, which is held by M a c o m b er Vocational. The Scott Americans gained revenge, however, when they took three games from qur American entrant. Cliff' Kime led the Nats with his high total of 574 for three games. This included a 212 game, which was high for the Woodward keglers. Bill Miles paced the Amerks when he spilled 198 pins for the high game honors on his team. Frankie Scott rolled a fine 204 game. This Saturday, the Nationals face Whitmer while Waite will provide cp- position for the Americans.

The Braves from the yearbook contingent are: Dick Scarisbrick, Malcolm Hogg, James Bru' baker, Horatio Jex, George Jaschke, and Paul Whiting. Eager to revenge their bitter defeat of last years' 17-3 score administered by the Tattler Terrors, the Saga Sissies hope to put up a good fight. Another pro- posed contest puts the girls from the Saga office against those of the Tattler, but plans for this game have not yet been completed. North End Squad Captures 6-Man Football League Title The lightweight title in the City Rec- reation League's six-man leagues was recently captured by the North Toledo Community House, a squad composed largely of Woodward students. The championship team consists of: Bill Moores, George Horn, 'Boobie' Zahs, Art Sorge, Ray Pearce, Harold Wandtke, Cecil Kluever, Robert Ott, and George Hope, all of Woodward. James Welch and George Chaney, ex- Woodwardites, and James Cherry, Ma- comber Vocational, also played on the team. Vincent Gaines, captain of the 1930 Woodward reserve team and Toledo U. backfield flash, coached the squad. Medals and letters are to be issued at a banquet January 18. BEAR CAGERS OPEN CITY LEAGUE RACE Opposition Supplied By Scott As Teams Tangle At 8:15 On Bulldog Hardwood Six high school basketball squads will take to the floor tonight to initiate the opening of the 1939 Intra-city cam- paign. Central, an earlier starter this season, is the only team idle having drawn a bye for the weekend. Woodward's quintet invades the Bull. dog's hardwood camp for its first loop trial with the Collingwood cagers. The tipoH' is slated for 8:15 P.M. Last year these two teams split their league clashes, Woodward taking the first encounter by a narrow margin 33- 30, and dropping the final contest 32-30. Scott's record for the season to date is 1 win and 2 losses while Woodward is credited with 2 out of three. Don Steinburg, Charlie Penn, Al Jones, and Leroy Lewis, mainstays from last years team, comprise the strength of the Bulldog squad and should test the Hanhamite charges. The varsity squad worked out six days during Christmas vacation and al- so encountered Perrysburg and Whit- mer in practice games. In the starting lineup for tonights game Coach Homer Hanhfm is likely to use Klonowski and Haffelder at forwards, Ted Nowak at center, with Zig Kaminski and Ted Gosciniak hold- ing down guard positions. Bill Copeland, diminutive Bear basketeer, is expected to see plenty of action under the lights tonight. Dave McMurray, Reserves mentor, reports his tentative selection for the lightweight game to be Konz and Koster playing at forwards,Hertszch at center, and McFarland and Haddad teaming at the guard positions SPORT SHORTS By Fish And Hope Ellis Beggs was the lucky guesser for the Sylvania game. He will receive a free ticket to the Bears' next home game. l B l Plenty of taps will be heard in the vicinity of the girls' gym next week when tap dancing classes begin third hour, Tuesday and Thursday.

GIRLS' INTRA-MURAL BASKETBALL BEGINS Four Contests Played Every Nightg Teams To Meet ' In 181 Games The first of the 181 games scheduled for the girls' basketball tournament were played last week. Four games are being scheduled for every night. This makes it necessary for oflicials to take charge of two games.

The American champs were composed of Ernie Bankey, Bill Rawski, Al Zbysko, Dick Radners, Oscar Eitniear, and Ray Zabrowski. Basketball is the next game to be played by the teams. These games were started this week. Money Earned By Paper Sale Insufficient To Buy Cleaner Of the seven thousand pounds of pa- per necessary to purchase an eraser cleaner, Mrs. Mary O'Brien, adviser of the Red Cross, reports that only three thousand fifteen pounds have peen col- lected. Three hundred and five pounds of newspapers, at twenty-five cents per hundred pounds, amounted to seventy- six centsg two thousand seven hundred and ten pounds of magazines, atthirty- five cents per hundred pounds, added up to nine dollars and forty-nine cents. The total is ten dollars and twenty-five cents. Because the cost of this cleaner is twenty-two dollars and fifty cents, twelve dollars and twenty-five cents is still lacking. Six Students Are Selected For Motion Picture Council Patty Hammontree, Dorothy Lang, William Stein, Alice Miller, Betty Giha, and Bob Domita have been selected to represent Woodward in the city-wide motion picture council. George Jaschke and James Brubaker are alternates. The purpose of this organization is to raise the standards of the motion pictures which high school students see, and try to obtain more appropriate pic- tures for school showing.

She paused as her mind reviewed the splen- did support and cooperaticn she has received from everyone. An advanced dramatic student, this senior helps Miss Kellogg instruct the seventh hour drarnatics class. f'Durirg one of the rehearsals,Narcis- sus Lesniewicz forgot her cues and every- time it was Narcissus, time to speak, there vsould be silence and then---Miss Lesniewicz would pop up with a'say, it's my turnl' U Betty confesses that she is the home girl type with nr- boy friend. Slaving away in a sweetshop amid sodas and dop-es, the senior invites Woodwardites to drop in some time. There is nothing like a good show or play for entertainment, declares the student manager. Betty Mack As Seen By Miss Kellogg Betty Mack has both the touch of the executive and that of the diplomat. Her work demands that she instruct the players and keep them happy at their work. This girl has the ability to blend together various contrasting personal ties into harmony. Excitable, keyed to the pitch of pas- sion the director has the driving force of getting things done. She is a full time worker. Two great talents have cropped up in Betty. She has a keen insight for motivation, which explains why things are done on the stage. Also Betty helps the actor to fit into the role of the characterg to adopt the mental and physical attitudes and mannerisms of his part. This is the only way we can bring the character to life. Evelyn Moore, Bob Martin To Head Annual Co-ed Prom The annual French club Co-Ed Prom will be given March 31, with Easter as the decoration motive.

School Publication Praises Radio Dramatists' Efforts Miss Dorothy Kellogg and the dra- matic classes received recognition for their radio work in the Decemberissue of the Toledo Schools, a monthly pub- lication of the Toledo public schools. The sound effects of Woodward High school students were remarkably well done, and frequently required consul- tation with many students and teachers of physics and science so that the sound effects would be true to life. You can imagine the educative value of a radio project in stimulation to activity and thought in producing the sounds for such productions. if I 1 Another article in the same pam- phlet read, Toledo ranks 34th in the 68 large cities of the U.

In view of the fact that formerly Woodward has been highly lauded on its extensive social program, it is-1 difficult to understand why the admins istrative body should choose to change such a commendable program. 3 The fact that students interested i the clubs will find time to attend has been disproven in many cases. 3 Then, too, there is the Adams Town! ship group which is deprived of the undisputed opportunities afforded b organizations. What could be so detri mental to student initiative and schoo progress as a feeling of not belongg ingf' unless there was a chance of rel f.-rm. 1 Such worthwhile organizations ad langue ge clubs have suffered a decrease in attendance because of this arrange- ment. Unfortunately, most of us are not blessed with money or good books to ease the path before us. The one thini we must depend on, in either college o business, is our ability to lead or follow direction effeciently. Clubs play an important part in developing these abilities. X When the present schedule was in! troduced, we were told that we would have a voice in the final decision by al poll, however there has been no pro! vision made for student opinion. I suggest that the administrative body reconsider its action and present a program which would be agreeabld to all concerned.

You'll pack up your books, just to end it all, When you remember the date, and postpone the fall. Three hundred and sixty-four days out of the year superstitious people of yore warded off evil spirits by nailing horseshoes abovetheir doors, throwing salt over their left shoulders, and pre- senting bouquets of four leaf clovers to fair maidens. But on a fatal day, Friday the 13th, omens backfired. Horseshoes fell--bumps aroseg salt flew in eyes--- fights ensued, four leaf clovers---hay fever. So take heed, Good luck you'll need. By an odd quirk of the calendar Temperance Day and Friday the l3th coincide. One shouldn't sign the W. C. T. U. pledge to abstain, for good in- tentions may be hampered by the 13th. In fact it is a bad day to start any project. Woe to those born on this jinxed date.

OH FRIENDSHIP True friendships are not bound by treads of glass Which cause such careful treading lest they break, But stoutest cables round them pass And courage roughly strengthens them en masse. Possess a love of everlasting glow, If souls are like, then place a trust, and each The other's true gleam know. Stoop not to hold convenientg then out grow. Crowd not a friendship in its early hour, Respect in patience from afar, and let It in perfection fiower. Then truth is yours when entering its bower. ---June Anderson. This is one of the poems written by Miss June Anderson, art instructress, which was published in the last volume of Poetry House, Some other poems which she has submitted were accepted for the next volume of this book. DAVIS GETS PEARLS The following masterpiece, written by a few of Al Davis' erstwhile friends, was circulated through Woodward late- ly: Al Davis, handsome young Apollo from Woodward, recently was awarded two new teeth after having lost his other one's in a football game. At the annual football banquet held in the Waite refec- tory, he was unable to sink his bewhisk- ered jaw into the mammoth steak that was set before him. It was torture for the versatile football and basketball star to watch the other more fortunate boys tear into the steak. But all that is different now that his new teeth have been installed. fDid you notice him tickling himself so as to show off his crockery?j Red Cross Makes Portfolios Making portfolios to exchange with foreign countries is the present project of the Red Cross. The books will contain pictures from Woodward such as art work and other activities, news of Tole- do, and pictures of industrial products.

That familiar odor of delicious delicacies coming from room 205 is only part of the Home Economics final ex- aminations ending the first school semester. All of Miss Angela Abair's cooking classes are now making practical foods of a variety and are being graded on the amount of dishes, and foodstuff used. Donit we wish all Woodward teachers would consider such digest- ible examinations?

Foreign Language Teachers Decide On New Course Roles Three years of the same language will hereafter be considered a language major, instead of the present require- ment of two years of one tongue and one of another. This decision was made at a meeting of the foreign language teachers Tuesday afternoon. The two-one ruling will be allowed in the case of an emergency such as with seniorsf, stated Miss Annie Wet- terman, Spanish and German teacher, but it isn't advisablef, Two years of each of two language will also be don- sidered a major in special cases.

Ersig after a year's leave of absence, still we shall be sad to have Miss Murphy leave us. Stepping into another's shoes is a difficult job, but making them fit comfortably is another matter.

The game was marked by close guarding which resulted in numerous fouls. The two teams were never separated by more than four points throughout the aontest. The opening minutes of the quarter found the squads engaged in a defensive truggle until successive fielders by No-55 vak and Copeland and several fouls netted the Bears an 8-3 lead which was not relinquished until the second quar- er when the Tigers staged a rally and .Kennet flipped a fielder to knot the core 11-11 at the half.

Woodward opened the scoring when Koster blocked a DeVilbiss pass, and relayed the ball to Konz who counted on a set-up shot. This was the only time throughout the contest that Woodward was on top. At the quarter the score stood at 6-4. The Tigers increased this lead to 18-8 at the half, and 25-16 at the three quarter mark. High point men for the Bear Cubs were Konz with 10 points and Chuck McFarland with 6, while Koster turned in a fine Hoor game. Leading the Tiger attack was Schweikart with 9 tallies. Trounce Scott Seconds A much-too-inexperienced Scott re- serve team offered the opposition last Friday, when the Bear Cubs turned on the offensive heat to win 35-15. The first half saw the Woodward squad turning in a fine defensive game, holding the Bulldogs to six points. Dick Koster provided the spark in the Bears' scoring drive by compiling ten points.

Game Highlights The reserves failed to make a foul in the DeVilbiss clash, but the Tiger sec- onds cashed in on four charity tosses. In the Scott game, the Bear Cubs held the Bulldogs for a quarter and a half before the opposition made a point. 8 U 8 Although Vocational has the newest stands, we can still boast that we have the largest seating capacity of any high school gym in the city. 1 i l When Bill'Copeland stopped quickly at a period of the Scott fray,Chuck Penn, who was guarding him, fell over his shoulder.tNo, we're not crazyj 1 l I Several of the W club ushers con- sidered Ed Kanney, Devilbiss guard, a ballet dancer. But, regardless of form, his fancy shots almost cost us a ball- game. BEARS RISK RECORD IN VOCATIONAL TILT Macomber Places Renovated Team Against Woodward At 8:15 This Evening Tonight, the Bears take on Vocation- al in their annual league clash in the new Vocational basketball court. Wood- ward will take to the floor seeking to retain its undefeated reoord and hang up its third straight loop triumph. Vocational, regarded as a pretty strong foe as a result of its record last year and this season to date, will be gunning for its second city victory, and should make it hot for the Hanhamite cagers. The Mechanics recently gained city prominence when they defeated Central Tuesday night. This was Ma- comber's first league win since they en- tered the race three years ago. Macom- ber has one advantage, as Woodward will be playing its first game on the lat- ter's fioor. This proved to be an impor- tant factor in last year's games and will probably hold the same disadvan- tage for the Bears this year. Witte, Torda, and Treadwell, main cogs in the Mechanics' offensive machine will be the Bears principal worries. However, with Copeland, Klonowski, and Kaminski leading the attack, the Bears should be able to off- set these obstacles. Coach Homer Hanham will probably employ the same line-up as was used against DeVilbiss in tonight's fray. The tentative line-up is: Woodward Vocational Klonowski ................

High scoring bowlerettes and their scores were: Virginia Carpenter, 5615 Dorothy Kohne, 2223 Mary Aberling, 1999 June Martin and Esther Bloom, 182. These scores are the results of two games. Fourteen W Girls Usher At Home Basketball Games Spectators at the home basketball games this year will have at their ser- vice fourteen W girls who have been chosen to usher. The girls are divided into two groups of seven, one of which will usher for a game. , In the first group are Kathryn Braun- schweiger, Loretta Ignatowski, Pauline Yeagle, Helen Trautmann, Dorothy Pur- nia, Charlotte Hertzsch, and Lillian Johnson. The second group includes Norma Herzberg, Flora Meyers, Marion Hesser, Mary Jane Szymorowski, Alma greiger, Othelle Lloyd, and Phyllis arn. Come On, Prognosticators What Will Your Guess Be ???

Swaya, Harley Lucas Merit Praise Emerging from improvised dressing rooms, keyed to the highest point of first night nervousness and eagerness to do one's best, the nine members of the cast of The Late Christopher Bean , appeared last night feeling slightly stiff and artificial under their masks of grease pain and false moustaches. Dorothy Swaya and Harley Lucas, cast in the leading roles as Abby, a faithful servant, and Dr. Haggett, a New England doctor, deserve due credit for their sincere performances of people much older than themselves, as does Narcissus Lesniewicz, who portrayed Mrs. Haggett, the doctor's wife. Dorothy told her audience, through her performance, that she had spent much time capturing the simple, loyal, sometimes dazed expression and man- nerisms of a true Abby. Harleyis complete naturalness and audibility, his perfectly-learned lines and con- vincing delivery. helped make his per- formance one of the high spots of the entertainment. Narcissus' grand char- acterization placed her in the list for top honors. As the Haggett sisters, Bonnie Jean Zirwes and Evelyn Moore were excel- lent. Bor-nie, as the sincere and de- pendable daughter, played her part with charm and grace. Evelyn's por- trayal of the excitable and Hirtatious daughter, betrayed a dramatic talent. If at any time the performance of some of the players was insincere, blame can be laid upon the incorrect English which has to be used, and the awkwardness of being, for one night, a person entirely alien from one's own self. All the seniors who helped to pro- duce this fine play, the prompter, stu- dent director, the dramatics classes, and various other committees, which worked behind the scenes, should be justly acknowledged for their help, without which there would have been no play. Again may we praise Miss Dorothy Kellogg, adviser ofthe Little Theatre Guild, for her patient, hard work in bringing out the best in the cast,and producing for the senior class another swell show. The romantic interest in the pro- duction was provided by Emil Scherer, with Bonnie's help, Emillooked and act- ed his role, that of a painter and lover. Allan Coleman, as an art critic, Will- iam Anspach, as a foreigner, and Mar- tin Blum, as a forger, shone in their re- spective roles. J. B. Denze-Receive-?Position Of Student Council Adviser Joe B. Dence, business arithmetic instructor, was recently appointed to take the position of Student Council adviser, which was vacated by Henry Van Gorder, algebra instructor who left last year Mr. Dence first came to Woodward four years ago and is now a full-time teacher. From 1931 to 1937 he occasion- ally substituted for Clyde Meek as an algebra teacher. Last year he taught at Robinson Junior High. His comment on the Student Council was that it was the most honorable so- ciety a student could belong to. He also stated that he would do everything in his power to make a good adviser, to maintain the high standards of the council, and to try to take the place of former advisers. Mrs. Katherine Sf-huler is' the other adviser of the Student Council. Louis Rabideau is president. Notice! The J-Hop has been moved back one week, to February 18, instead of Febru- ary 25. The change was made because Lent begins February 22 LLL ...s.. -111 More Members, Please Dear Editor: What is the matter with this year'sl sophomore class? They don't seem to be interested in making this year's class better than previous ones. Miss Kellogg recently informed the members of the class cabinet that a sophomore play cannot be given unless more talented sophomore students join the Little Theatre Guild. We members of the cabinet are sure that the students aren't going to let the upper classmen get ahead of them- We are closing this letter in belief that by February the sophomore enrollment in the Guild will be doubled. This now stands at thirteen dependable students. Sophomore Cabinet Hall Patrol Question Dear Editor: Have you ever heard complaints about the Woodward hall patrol? Some people say that the students on hall pa- trol just fill the chairs. But, there is one question which I would like to put be- fore the student body. That is: Why do the students with A and B grades almost always decline when they are asked to patrol? When I was chosen commissioner of hall patrols, l promised to select good and capable students. My choices for the hall captains have proved to be very successful. It is true thatmy hall guards have not always asked for passes, be- cause I have taken check-ups myself. Some of the boys and girls on patrol are not up to the standard of grades which should average a B. This is be- cause there is no one to take their places. Next semester I must organize an almost entirely new hall patrol. Therefore I ask the loyal Woodward students to apply for a position on hall patrol and not to sit back and ridicule the honest work of others. Richard Semler New Courses Booked Next Term For Upper Classmen Students will be given the opportu- nity to begin several new courses the second semester. Solid geometry and trigonometry are being offered in the mathematics field and will be taught by E. R. Rike. Paul Lankenau will continue instructing the commercial law and economics classes. Salesmanship, under the guidance of John Grodi may also be taken, while James Pollock will teach sociology. These courses will count as one-half unit and only juniors and seniors may take them. J.

I IN WAR-TORN CHINA Freshman Girl Flees Orient In Midst Of Sudden Revolution Fleeing from China in the midst of one of its sudden revolutions was Jane Searles' most vivid adventure. I was four years old when I left the country in which I was born, she declared. This freshman miss has submitte articles for the Tattler and for a tim wrote news for the Toledo Blade.

' ' M acu y vlsers lHugh Montgomery We Get What We Work For QQ HE GAVE me a C. How often, during the past three or four days, have you heard someone making that statement? How often have you made rude con- demnations of Woodward teachers? Have you ever been guilty of saying, K'Mr. X isn't fair, or Miss Y only gives A's to her favorites ? The faculty of Woodward is composed of edu- cated men and women who are much older, wiser, and better informed than we. The strict require- ments which must be met before entering their profession, and the great number of qualified people which offer a selection, insures the student body of Woodward that only the finest men and women, those with the highest standards of integri- ty, are chosen to be our instructors. If you received an A on your card, that A was placed there because you earned itgifyou received a C in English, your teacher didn't give it to you--you earned it. If you aren't satisfied with your card, work a little harder next semester instead of resorting to malicious gossip, which in the end harms no one but yourself. This Half ECOND semester has begun. Seniors are enter ing the last lap of their high school career. With the second halfofthe school year comes a whirlwind of activities. The J-Hop, the Senior Prom, the junior class play, Gayety Nite, the Soph Frolic, and finally graduation-'these comprise the happiest yet the saddest part of the year. For underclassmen, second semester offers an opportunity to participate in the fun. It also brings a chance to turn over a new leaf, to do more and better school work. ' But to the seniors, the social activities, with all their pleasure and glamor, are tinged with sadness as they realize that this is their last semester of high school work. Some will go on to oollege,others will seek employment immediately. Some will suc- ceed,others wi l fail. Yet all will remember the sec- ond semester of 38-39. Second semester, we salute you! , For Education Only HEadvent of the new semester brings this question to our minds: will the movies shown at school be educational? Motion pictures have been accepted as a form of entertainment for high schools. Since movies take time originally intended for class work, why not choose more worthwhile pictures than the ones selected for last semester? Let's make this our slogan: show educational movies. We come to school to learn. Join the March of Dimes. Help march infantile paralysis out of the country.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER BEARS EXTE DVICTORY TRE LMERICAN KEGLERS TAKE THREE GAMES Watts ln Tie With Macomber As Result Of Dropping Two Big Games After dropping two games out of Eiree to Macc mber, the Naticnal .ague bowling team is now tied for rst place with Vocational. Inspired by cott's 190 single game total and his teady bowling for a fine 543 three am-e total, the Nats gave the ma- hinists a tough battle. Ott posted a 205 game which added E lgis prestige in the double century u . But the real team last Saturday was he American league squad. Outdoing hemselves by rolling three games a- way from the Whitmer keglers, the trnerks stepped into the limelight. Al- gough the Americans have played in e shadow of their more victorious rothers, they saw the sunshine after oming through with flying colors. Chalking up a new record for single ame totals at the Auditorium this year, mtoszewski spilled the pins for a big 45, coming through with a smashing 79 three game total. Barczak, who has been steadily bowl- ng high scores, added a 520 three game otal to his credit. Marok, not to be out- ,one, collected 526 pins. The Americans had a fine 2562 three 'ame total. ' Since the Tattler didn't appear on he week of the 15th, here is a brief Psume of the previous game. LWresting away three games from fentral, the Nats, paced by McMahon's 02 saw themselves at the head of the league, Kime, Jr.'s 193 and Scott's teady rolling for a nice 544 three game otal were some of the factors in the uccess of their team. lThe Amerks repeated this feat by bppressing Central's No. 2 team for 'nree games. Barczak was the outstand- ig player with his three game total of 7. ,Tomorrow, the National league will teet Waite while Macomber will oppose he Americans.

The win still holds undefeated honors for the Bears and gives them a consid- erable lead in the city league campaign. Checked completely by a strong Bear defense wall, the Indians were never near enough to do any damage as the Hanham cagers continued to maintain a sizeable lead throughout the game. Woodward started fast in the open- ing frame sweeping through Waite's weak barricades with fast breaks and ediective shooting, jumping to a size- able 22-12 lead at the halftime. Opening the second half witha bar- rage of shots, theTurby men sought a comeback as they decreased the Bears lead to five points, netting no promising results although Woodward dumped but one bucket in the third stanza. Seven fouls were called in the final quarter as both teams fought a defen- sive strugg1e.The Bears added six more points to strengthen their ever increas- ing lead to coast to victory in the re- mainder of play. Little Bill Copeland and Ted Klonow- ski both tied up with an eight point total for the scoring honors. Forward, Hank Lepiarz tallied nine points to top the Indians. Every Woodward man saw action in the fray.

Woodward won the contest by a 29 to 23 count. After witnessing a dull first quarter in which the two teams scored but three points, Woodward finally came to life and marched into la 16-4 lead at half-time. The Bears maintained a considerable lead in the third canto but, sparked by Treadwell and Witte, the Machinists staged an offensive battle that made the score read 26-23. However, a bucket and a foul by Woodward put the game on ice as the gun sounded. Ted Klonowski and Bill Copeland chalked up ten points each to lead the Bears in scoring while Witte posted five markers for Macomber. Cowboys Resist Squeezing out a slim 20-19 margin in the last quarter over a strong Libbey quintet which refused to be beaten, the Woodward Polar Bears chalked up their fourth straight win to strengthen their hold on the top berth in the city race. Scoring sprightly in the opening min- utes of the game, Woodward managed a 6-3 lead which survived to the second canto when the Libbey squad, gaining momentum, spurted through the Bear's crumbling defense to knot the score twice on fielders by Holden and Berry. The score at the half, however, still fa- vored Woodward 13-9. The Bear's lone tally by Bill Cope- land in the third quarter figured prom- inently in the victory as each team scored but four points in the remainder of the tilt to make the score 20-19. Libbey's failure to convert a free toss in the remaining minutes afforded the Hanham men the chance to hold their one point lead. Captain Ted Klonowski again paced the Woodward squad with seven points to his credit. Stewart, Hoffman, and Berry were high scorers for the Cow- boys.

Town Hall Speaker Declares Future Peace Depends On Education Stefan Zweig, the biogr ipher who has taken out the dim lay figures of history from dusty books and presented them to the world as living, breathing persons, delivered his talk on History of Tomor- row at the Town Hall meeting held at the Commoiore Perry Hotel, Saturday, January 21. The future education of youth is closely linked with future peacefstated the noted historian. t'Yesterday's and today's history is falsely painted in the totalitarian countries so as to cover the horrors of war. The speaker showed how the Euro- pean history bor-ks stressed only the great battles and dates of victorious days. They glorified success and ignored justice. These attitudes nourished during the World War and the colorful teach- ing ofhistory is responsible for present day conditions, announced Stefan Zweig. The people in Europe are living under a strain and feel that at any moment it will burst. The biographer revealed that we are passing through the greatest hour in history. He went on to state that the question, When will Europe go to war?, dominates Germany and that when the next war comes, not only will it destroy Europe and Asia, but will eventually come to the United States. War is the greatest crime of civiliza- tion. Men who give their ideas to people will always be remembered, not those who have sacrificed the lives of people, declared the author.

Yes, the Saga Sissies accomplished the impossible when they barely managed a 15 to 9 win over that powerful combine, the five Tattler Ter- rors. It's no wonder, however, that they plowed us under with all our handicaps. In the first place, our great star, Robert Knoke, bummed school on the day of the game, secondly. we had no practice while the Sissies worked out every night, and thirdly, how can we help it if we,re no good? The game 1?3 was a sad case. From the beginning to the end it was rem- inscent of a date on a rainy night. The spectators fthe refereesh felt like leav- ing at the end of five minutes of play. The only thing that kept them back was the ten dollars that each received. Paul Lankenau, Ted G-wsciniak, and Bill Haffelder were the robbers. , Sparking the Saga onslaught was itsy-bitsey Dicky Scarisbrick that he- boy yearbook editor, who collected five lucky points. Bill Moores led the Tat- tlerites with his six markers besides turning in a lousy floor game. The only enjoyment offered in the tray was the play of Wrong Way Laderman. He gave the Sissies their other ten points with his Corrigan shots.

CRITICIZES DRAMA New York Critic Emphasizes Historical Background In Stage Plays According to John Mason Brown, New York drama critic, history is being made in the theatres today, since au' thors are historically minded and there' fore are producing stage plays with his- torical backgrounds. A stage success based on history is Victoria Regina , which stars Helen Hayes. To see this and enjoy it you must know something about its background. Musical comedies were once given for tired business men and women,but now business men and women are no longer tired. Mr. Brown has no fondness for the torch singer in Clifton Webb's newest musical comedy. To him torch singers are merely female baritones with fallen voices. In that same musi- cal, Lupe Velez wig-wagged her boby so much that she tired her audience. 'tHellzapoppin is not one show but two shows in one, and Mr. Brown said that one is always awake during the show because the comedians throw rice and shoot pistols at you. Speaking of comedians, John Mason Brown would almost see our form of government change than have anything happen to Victor Moore. Sophie Tucker, who is in the latest musical comedy with Victor Moore, is the last of the red hot mammasf' and after seeing her, one can understand the forward and backward of Mae West. Some plays worth seeing or reading are Rocket to the Moon, by Clifford Odetsg Here Come the Clowns, by Phil- lip Barrieg The Women, and Kiss the Boys Goodbye. by Claire Booth. Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt is John Mason Brown's favorite critic.

Dickerson Gives Lecture On Fine Art Juniors and seniors, followed by sophomores and freshmen art students, had the privilege today of hearing Mrs. William J. Dickerson, artist and art authority, present an illustrated lecture on the subject of fine art. Mrs. Dickerson is in Toledo giving lectures under the auspices of the To- ledo Blade in conjunction with its Art Appreciation project. She has presented art talks at all Toledo high shools, and has participated in art discussions with groups of educators, art authorities, and club women. To bring to Toledo's art lovers a great- er understanding of the reproductions of famous paintings is the object of the art project. In cooperation with the Na- tional Committee for Art Appreciation, the Toledo Blade will reproduce widely known paintings in full color, which can be purchased at small cost. Mrs. Dick- erson contended that this project gives to every purchaser a complete collection, one that represents every period of great painting. The art of printing made books and literature available to the great mass of people in quantities within their reach, stated Mrs. Dickerson, but fine paintings were not so plentiful and be- came the property only of the wealthy class and the nobility. Later these possessors of beautiful art built mu- seums and arranged for their fine pic- tures to be viewed at times by the general public. An Open Letter To All Boys of Woodward: Would you like to be on Woodward's city, district, or state championship track team this year? Last fall a new face appeared in the Woodward coach- ing staff. Bill Fetters, our new track coach, started out with seven or eight boys and developed them into a city championship cross country team. If enough interest would be taken in track, and if Mr. Fetters were given coopera- tion, I think that this cross country team would be only a small example of what 'Woodward can do in this field of sports. In the first place, I think that every football player is capable of taking high honors in at least one of the many field events even if he is not an exceptional runner. Secondly, I believe that every boy is a potential candidate for the track team and that somewhere in Woodward are hidden enough fast run- ners to support those football players as weight men, and those cross country boys as distance men to form a well- rounded team. It only takes five men for a cross country squad, but many more for the distance events in a track team.'1'herefore, a few distance runners are also needed. If the rest of Wood- ward will do their part, we cross coun- try boys will do ours to make this year Woodward's best in track. A Member of the Cross Country Team Graduate Is Honored William Loerke, a Woodward gradu- ate of '38 and student of Oberlin college, has had one of his original compositions played before a Parent Teachers' meet- ing there, and in his musical theory class. . mA THE WOODWARD TATTLER THE WOODWARD TATTLER Published And Printed Every School Week by the Pupils of Woodward High School.

Mendelssohn, Brahams, Mozart N FEBRUARY 10, Woodward's orchestra will unite with those of Waite, DeVilbiss, and Scott to present a concert. On February 10, we, Woodward's student,will have an opportunity to show our orchestra that we are behind it one hundred per cent, and that we appre- ciate the practice and hard work which it has com- pleted to make this event a big success. This is the first time that anything of this kind has been offered us, let's show our approval, let's support our school and our orchestra. Attend the concert! Honesty Is The Best Policy URING the past week, many lost articles have been returned to their owners. Although no notices have been announced or rewards offered, the finders have promptly brought them to the office. This shows the growing spirit of honestyg Wood- wardites are again proving that honesty is the best policy. The returning of lost articles gives an insight into the true unselfish character of Wood- wardites. Let's keep up this splendid record of honesty! The only way we can make the school honest is to be honest ourselves.

C' X In a recent issue of Colliers is an article ' , which tells us of a drug newly discovered ,f which will cut fatalities in pneumonia ' cases as much as ninety-four percent. 4, , Other great discoveries in this line are constantly being made. One by one the ' Xi deadly enemies of mankind are being sub- -. f' dued. The span of human life is being ex- tended until it seems that only old age and accidents will be the cause of death. However, there is another side to this brilliant pic- ture. A side so dark and discouraging that one is sick- ened by the sight. Human life, so precious to the sci- entist, is nothing more than so much fuel to feed the greed and ambition of the dictator. Stirred by insane desires to make himself powerful, he scorns the suffer- ing and death of thousands of human beings. He sees only the ultimate triumph of his brutal personality which is disguised under the name of patriotism. Perhaps in the future some means will be discovered to remove such menaces to human life and happiness. Experts in national and international affairs will have a somewhat different problem in the removal of these human germs of destruction which fasten them- selves upon the body politic. Whereas the man of sci- ence searches long and patiently to isolate the killer germ so that it may be destroyed, the dictator is in bold view but immune to any agency of destruction except that which will destroy many human lives. It is a diffi- cult problem but one which must be solved.The world cannot exist peacefully with two such diametrically opposed principles of government. It is almost too much to hope that it can be solved without great sac- rifices of human life. Don'ts For Dancing Don't hum or whistle loudly. It isn't kind to your partner. Humming an occasional note or two won't make you a social outcast, of course, but don't try to make yourselfa part of the orchestra. If you must hum, know the song and keep in tune. C 1 1 Don't take short back steps which will block your partner and cause him to step on your toes. If the toes of your slippers are soiled, you are not taking long enough steps. If il l Don't hang your weight on your partner's arm in an eiort to relax. Your partner can't dance for you. You must hold your own balance and support your own weight. U 8 I Don't clutch your partner's hand with a death grip. She won't run away. F 3 3 Don't dance with your hips way back. It is an out-of- date fashion. For good dancing the perfect position is to be erect and tipped forward a little. I if K Don't hug the floor! When you lift your feet about a quarter of an inch off the floor and pass them through the air, the floor offers no resistance. By passing your feet through space, instead of rubbing them against the floor, you give them a chance to move lightly and easily. Your feet will then be free to do the steps of the dance and can be moved in any direction with less effort.

Central Clash , RESERVES DEFEATED BY CENTRAL CAGERS George Jaschke, Hertzsch Score 21 Points, Irish Player Gets 15 Being unable to cope with Central's fast breaks and lucky shots, the Wood- ward reserves dropped their third city game by 35 to 27. After grabbing an early lead on buck- ets by Hertzsch and Jaschke, the light- weights continued their scoring spree to lead at halftime 18-13. When Woodward began to falter in the third quater, the Irish took advan- tage ofthe situation and dropped in one- handed shots from all over the floor. McTuillan was in Central's limelight, flipping in five fouls and a like number of goals for 15 points. Lefty Hertzsch and George Jaschke found the hoop for the reserves, buck- eting twelve and nine points, respect- Here's a bit of action recorded during a tense moment of the Central game by Max Gottfried's camera.

BEAR CAGERS LOSE CENTRAL TILTg DROP INTO TIE lN CITY STANDINGS Hanhamites Defeated 27 -24-jx 5 Copeland, Zig Kaminski Lead Scoring The Woodward Polar Bear's five game winning streak was finally snapped as they bowed to a fighting Irish squad in a fast hard fought battle by the score of 27-24, last Tuesday in the Woodward gym. By virtue of its win, Central is now tied with Wood- ward for first place in the city race. It was one of those games which saw Woodward holding the lead through- out only to have it grasped by Central in a last-minute drive. The opening minutes of play resem- bled somewhat a football game with nearly every player nursing a sore joint as both teams fought to gain the upper hand. Zig Kaminski finally opened for the Bears bagging two goals to put the Blue and White out in front 65 at the quarter post. Guard Adams was the spearhead of Central's offensive drive, netting eight points in the first half to put the Cherry Streeters into the lead at the finish of the half with the score reading 14-12. A bad pass in the last quarter de- cided the Bears' fate as the Irish lads sparked by Mouch staged a thrilling rally to roll up a five point lead which sufficed to the end. Woodward made a desperate uphill attempt to close the gap but failed to do so. Ziggy Kaminski and Bill Copeland with eight points topped Woodward scoring. Adams was high point man for the opponents with four fielders.

The kegler won these honors when he set a new record by rolling a beautiful 245 a week ago. 1 i 1 By coming through with three strikes last Saturday, Dan Barczak, anchor man of the Amerks, saved the day for them. Dan's steady high scores help explain why the American league team has won 11 games with 1 loss during the past seven weeks. U C U coach, The reason why Scott, Durka, and Barczak lead their teams in scoring is that these bowlers put a little spin on the ball. This trick accounts for their knocking down more pins than the others. U U l Al Dlugiewcz, former captain of the Woodward Nationals, is now an all star player in the Major league.

American Bowlers Maintain Winning Stride Although they swept away three games from the Waite quintet, the Na- tional league is still deadlocked with the DeVilbiss No.2 team for first place. Sparked by Scott's consistent bowl- ing with his 198-154-177 frames for a high 529 series, the Nats chalked up a fair 2252 three game total. Durka was put on the bowling honor roll for spilling the pins for a big 215 and soaring up to a new high 527 total. The second game was a tight affair, but the Nationals rallied to win by four pins. By blanking Macomber for two games, the Americans moved into Hfth place. Again Barczak set the pace by rolling a smashing 230 game and con- 'ributing to the American league three game total of 2481 with his extraordi- narily high 529 three game sum. Matok broke. into the doudle century club with his 216 and checked in a big 529 three game total. Tomorrow, the Nats will have to suppress Rossford to remain entrenched in their coveted position.

Marjorie was the only one of the ten contestants to an- swer all four of his or her questions correctly. Her knowledge of royalty, ships, winds, and colors were tested. Marjorie likes school and hopes to go to the Franklin School of Arts and Sciences to study to be a laboratory technician. She is also interested in travel books and likes all kinds of sport. Motor-cycle Lil, as Marjorie is sometimes called, has skating and scout- ing on her list of hobbies. Long finger- nails find favor in her eyes, while she detests butch haircuts on boys. Nobody seems to agree on the color of my eyes, said Marjorie, a native Toledoan, so say the're orange if you like. Her pet occupation is laughing, and her favorite male goes to another school, name unknown. 70 Woodward Students Fail To Return Hearing Histories About 70 Woodward students have failed to return their hearing histories to Mr. Soncrant, arepresentative of the Hard of Hearing Institute. Recent tests show that there are ap- proximately 200 students in Woodward with serious hearing defects. Two of them will be totally deaf within a year unless they are treated. Returning this record does not involve a physical examination or any expense whatever. If the student's parent is unable to write, the student should fill in the blanks and turn it in, regardless. Woodward is the only school in the city in which the students have failed to return these blanks. They must be turned into the office by Monday!

MEIKLEJOHN GIVES FORUM TALK Speaker Believes That Every Good Teacher Should Take Sides Should Teachers Discuss Contro versial Questions? was the topic of Dr. Alexander Meiklejohn's address to the Civic Forum Monday evening at the Womenis building. Yes, just so far as it comes to reach a subject matter of a fundamental controversial issue of people and socie- ty, was the speaker's answer to the question. However, he stressed the fact that only those should be discussed. That the teacher should take sides was another conviction of the addresser. Every real teacher who is doing a good job of teaching must be an advocate, he emphasized. It is his belief that there should be communist teachers in the schocl. It is the teacher's duty to cultivate in students the power of making up their minds and of forming opinions, Mr. Meiklejohn declared. It is his theory that teachers should develop this power, and that a teacher must form an opin- ion and back it up with conducive arguments in order to accomplish this.

C4 FTHE students do not stop abusing the third hour, there shall cease to be a third hour, and other periods will be lengthened. This was the conclusion reached at a recent meeting of the faculty. Contained in less than a score of words, is the cessation of student activity, in Woodward, during the third hour. These forty-five minutes which should be used for committee and class meetings, and welcomed by absentees as a breathing spellv in which to make up back work, will be abandoned unless students begin to use it properly. We all know why we have this period set aside, and we know, too, that it isn't set aside for us to have rendezvous with our friends in the halls. Juniors, We Want Action! EBRUARY 18 is the big date for the juniors, the date they have been looking forward to since September. A successful J-Hop has been an annual tradition with Woodward juniors, and this year's class is anxious to keep that tradition, and perhaps show their predecessors that they can do even better. Aided by an enthusiastic committee and the danc- ing class, all obstacles are being cleared away. Juniors, do your part! Just attend the dance and have a marvelous time. From all indications, the seniors, sophomores, and freshmen are helping you succeed, but don't let them makeabetter show- ing than your own class members. He Was Great T CANNOI' be denied that Abraham Lincoln, whose birthday will be celebrated Sunday throughout the nation, was a truly great man. Although he rose from obscurity to the presidency, the highest position that America has to offer, he nev- er lost his understanding ofthe common people, his human sympathy and tenderness, and his solicit- ous patriotism for the nation he struggled to keep united. Lincoln's desire and ability to learn, his persever- ance, and his sincerity, faithfulness, and justice all made him the great man he was. From the character and principles of Lincoln,we may learn much. Our Greatest Help , AVE you been up to room 212 lately? Room 212, you know, is the library.

M, RESERVES LOSE TWO CITY LEAGUE GAMES The DeVilbiss reserves showed their heels to an out-classed Woodward quin' tet in their encounter last Tuesday by 22-14. A streak of wild and erratic passing on the part of the Bear squad was a main factor in their defeat, the fifth of the season. MacFarland's foul and a fielder by Koster were the only points that Wood- ward could score in the first quarter. A tight DeVilbiss defense held them score- less in the second frame, the half end- ing with the Tigers out in front 11-3. The West Enders continued their scor- ing rampage throughout the remainder of the tilt, leading at the three-quarter mark by 19 and 8 and finishing the game with a 25-14 count. Woodward's scoring was well divided with Koster, who totaled four points, being high point man, while Messerly, Tiger guard, put on a one-man act by scoring 14 points. Reserves Falter A bewildered Woodward squad left the floor on the downbeat of a 22-19 count as they bowed to Macomber's scrappy five in their encounter last Friday. This defeat was the first that a Voca- tional squad has infiicted on any Wood- ward basketball team since the Mechan- ic's entrance into the city league. After building up a sizeable lead for three quarters, the Bear lightweights lost complete control and helplessly watched Macomber overcome the deficit and go on to win. Woodward started out with a 5-3 lead at the quarter mark, in- creased itto 13-8 at halftime, and main- tained a 18-12 margin over their op- ponents as the fourth quarter began. A lone foul by Norm Pryzbycz was the only scoring that the Bears were able to accomplish in the last canto, be- ing stopped abruptly by Macomber's sterling defense. Jaschke, MacFarland, Hertzsch and Pryzbycz each dumped in four points to tie for scoring honors. Konz bucketed markers to complete the scoring. New Sound System Used The new sound system which was in operation today for the movie third and fourth hours was a project of Mr. A. R. Bitter's electricians. This sound system was constructed from old parts in addition to some new electrical material. It was used Wednes- day for the baseball movie and perfect- ed yesterday for today's performance. WOODWARD FACES COWBOYS TONIGHT Bears Have Chance To End Losing Streak Jinx At Libbey Tasting defeat in their two recent encounters, the Woodward Bears will attempt to overcome their sudden losing jinx tonight, when they move over to Libbey's hardwood camp for a snappy tussle with the fifth place Cow- boys. A real test is in store for the Hanham cagers. Libbey, although occupying a second division berth, is no second rate outfit. Only by nosing out a narrow 20- 19 margin did the Bears succeed in downing the Southside cagers the last time these two squads met. Considering the score, the Cowboys performed ef- fectively on the Woodward floor. To- night Libbey has the floor advantage. Bill Copeland, absent for a half from Tuesday's lineup is reported to have fully recovered from a head cold and is expected to see plenty of action tonight. Following are the tentative lineups for the evening's clash: Woodward Pos.

Amerk Bowlers Sweep Three Games From Libbey Although they swept away two games with one loss from the Rossford quintet, the Nats are still deadlocked for first place with the Macomber Mechanics. Set in full gear, the boys not only rolled the highest score in the National league, but were the only team to have players climb over the 200 mark. Inspired by Gawronski's beautiful 203 for a 561 sum, the Nationals belted out their high 2563 three game total. Scott's neat 214 was one of the spear- heads of the attack, followed by Ott's 212 margin. The second game was the jinx to the Bears. Unable to score effectively until the seventh frame, the Nats staged a desperate last minute effort but failed to close the gap. . With three games added to their winning streak, the American league team couldn't be stopped as itwalloped the Libbey No. 2 pinsters into defeat. The Amerks' record for the last 8 weeks is 14 wins and 1 loss. Zawacki carved his initials in the niche of fame, when he pounded out a splendid 225, winding up with a big 583 total. Another high individual was Barczak, who spilled the pins for 200 and ended with a 580 score. The Amerks checked in with a 2511 three game total. One of last years victorious bowlers, Charles Sherman, has been added to the bowling list. McMahon substituted for Durka in the third game. Tomorrow, the Nationals will face DeVilbiss, while the Americans will take on the DeVilbiss No. 1 team.

This loss, the Bears' second in city competition, dropped them into second place behind Central, who tripped Vocational in its last encounter. The 'Tigers started out fast, gaining an 8-3 advantage on successive buckets by Kanney, Larson, and Bennett as the first quarter ended. Woodward came to life in the second canto when Kaminski and Klonowski teamed to bring the score to 14-12 in the Tigers favor. The Bears continued their scoring spree dur- ing the third period and finally over- came DeVilbiss, 22-21.The rest was his- tory. Bennett flipped in two beautiful one-hand shots before Woodward found the hoop again. Copeland's fielder and Ford's foul tied the score at 25 points when Dick Welch, DeVilbiss forward, bucketed two points to sew up the ball game. The Tigers managed to keep possession of the ball for the two min- utes which remained, and added a foul to clinch the fray. Tie in scoring Leading the Woodward scorers were Zig Kaminski and Ted Klonowski, who tied with five points. Haffelder, Nowak and Copeland each dropped in four points. A bad chest cold forced Bill Copeland to remain on the bench during the first half. Woodward DeVilbiss Fg.F.T.

SCHWARZKOFF SPEAKS ON CRIME Noted Criminologist States That Crime Is Second Largest Industry Crime, a national problem, is the second largest industry, entailing 15 billion dollars, stated Colonel H. Nor- man Schwarzkoff at the Town Hall lec- ture on Saturday, February 4. He went on to say that although much has been accomplished by police departments in the past century, every effort is gone to naught without the sup- port of every law-abiding citizen. First is the prevention of crimef' The place to begin is at home. The most im- provement can be made in this field. Early inception of crime, for most crim- inals, can be traced to lack of home discipline: One out of every sixteen homes in the United States is tainted with crime. It should be the duty of every citizen to get acquainted with his police agencyg' to be able to give information in a way that the force can use it. In many cases police know of crimes but cannot make an arrest because people will not tell things in a way that police can use it. There should be an increase in local activities for the reduction of juvenile delinquency? Twenty-three per cent of the crimes are committed by persons not yet of voting age. Proper use of the parole system should be encouraged. Only citizen interest will bring about the changes in our present day system. In conclusion Col. Schwarzkoff said that Americans are a tolerant people. We have just as much crime as we will tolerate. Less toleration, less crime. We should make war against crime. The criminal strikes from ambushg undermines our social orderg brings about corruptiong brings about lures which encourages juvenile delinquency. The police, as soldiers of peace, are pro- tecting our welfareg they want to do their duty. As law-abiding citizens are we doing our duty? H. Van Gorder Gets Degree A master's de ree was issued to H E en- ry Van Gorder, former head of extra- curricular activities here in Woodward at Toledo University recently. i MRS. W. DICKERSON GIVES ART LECTURE To Further Art Appreciation Is Authority's Main Purpose Art is such an intimate thing and such a matter of emotion that one must live with it constantly to get the most benefit from it, declared Mrs. William Dickerson in answer to the question, What is the best approach to art? This young art lecturer add- ressed a group of Woodward students last Friday. In delivering about thirty lectures in Toledo under the auspices of the Toledo Blade and National Committee for Art Appreciation, this attractive authority's purpose was to further the art appreciation that art museums and schools encourage. Thrilled with the beauty and facilities of the Toledo Mu- seum of Art, Mrs. Dickerson's only hope was that Toledoans appreciate sufficiently. Reveals Preferences Although this genial speaker deemed it very diiicult to name a favorite a- mong painters, she offered the works of El Grece, Pieter Breughel, Schmidt Rottlulf, and Michael Angelo, the Ger- man expressionist, as ranking high in her estimation. A resident of Witchita, Kansas, Mrs. Dickerson is a graduate of the Univer- sity of Kansas where, oddly enough, she majored in mathematicsg however, she has studied art and has come in close contact with famous artist the past ten years. Mrs. Dickerson is a portrait painter, while her husband, a famous artist in his own right, and Director of the Witchita Art Museum, specializes in landscapes. Graciously, Mrs. Dickerson stated that the orderly conduct of the Woodward audience spoke for the intelligence of the student body.

Often wholi rows are held for an entire quarter bg putting feet on them. For this reasoi many activities ticket holders and othei respectable students must stand or b1 subjected to insults and curses by th! seat-savers. When the usher shows these people to the seats, the person holding then refuses to give them up and they mus be taken by force which causes a dis turbance and many vulgar shoves ant pushes. If an announcement was made tha no seats could be held, or a sign printer to this effect, the trouble could be cleare1 up. All men are created equal --- The student who arrives first should get the best seat! Indignant Senior A Protest Dear Editor: A recent restriction which teachers have enforced prohibits students fron going to their lockers third hour. As : member of the Student Council I knov there is too much loitering in the hall: during this period, but a restriction liku this seems to be going a little bit tom far. Conference hour is the only timn we can go to our lockers in the morn ing without rushing to get to class oi time and as a result forgetting the worl we wanted to get. And now even this is taken away from us. Members of the Student Council an permitted to patrol third hour ans check up on pupils about the halls. I seems that fear of being brought befor' Student Council should be enough t1 make pupils go to and from their lock ers without stopping here and there t1 chat with friends. Let's show our teachers that we'r4 grown up enough to go to our locker: without being reprimanded for burr ming around the halls. Rev.

Columnist Pearson Predicts War Inevitable Next Spring The three chief problems facing America at this time are the political, economic, and international questions. This statement was made by Drew Pearson, ace reporter, when he spoke before the Toledo Civic Forum Mon- day evening. To keep Congress with him and to see that a New Deal Democrat is nomi- nated for the presidency are the two main political tasks facing the Presi- dent. The leader of the Anti-New Deal Democrats, Vice-President Garner, is attempting to secure the nomination ofa member of his faction. Because it is doubtful if someone can be found to satisfy both sides, Mr. Pearson pre- :licted that the Republican chances in 1940 would be very good and suggested that possible Republican candidates might be Dewey for president and Taft for vice-president. In regard to the economic problem, the Washington columnist asserted, 'Government spending is necessary as long as there is the unemployment problem. The approach to the solution of the economic question must be uni- ted, not partisan. That our Neutrality Act is most in- eiiective was shown by Mr. Pearson when he cited various isolated wars which had served as laboratory tests if neutrality. In conclusion, the speak- er prophesied that war would come this spring. Unsats Issued On March 6 The unsats will get you if you don't watch out!

He was so delighted to have the suit, two good second-hand shirts and two new pairs of socks that he could scarcely believe it possible. He said, How could all these good things hap- pen to me? It must be a dream. Several students each week are en- abled to remain in school because of clothing and money brought in by individuals and clubs. Our supply is very low. What can you do to help? Our need is greater than our supply. Miss Grace Cronk Notebook Is Missing A notebook containing material for debates has been reported missing by Miss Mable Rutan. Approximately twen- ty hours of work has already been done on it. Any person knowing of its where abouts should please inform Miss Rutan. A Rush For 127! Hear ye, hear ye!

They think of the first president of the United States-- namely, George Washington. This statesman, made familiar and dear to us through constant contact with stories of his life, will ever be considered the father of our country. His honesty, bravery, and courage will live through all posterity. When we observe his birthday on February 22, we shall be celebrating the birth of, not only a mili- tary genius, but also of a man who was gracious, gentle, and dignified. Which Will Win? GREAT struggle is now taking place. Two important factions of school life are con- tending for your time. On one hand there is education. Much time is necessary for concentration on homework and in classes in order that you may receive a knowledge of the subjects you are taking and earn passing grades or better. Vying with education for your time and attention are the extra-curricular activities. Your time is de- manded now for club and class meetings, committee meetings, and program planning. Then, too, you endeavor to be present at as many of the games, dances, skates and other class and club activities as possible. Who will win this struggle of education vs. ac- tivities? A will-planned time budget will allow you time for both school and extra work. However, let's not put fun before workg but remember, too, that all work and no play makes Jack and Jill dull children. Why Not Give Them A Chance? VERYONE likes to be included in the social whirl. Woodward's dances show that everyone is not enjoying himself to the fullest extent. On one side of the room stand a good many able bodied young men. We say able bodied, because they are neither bad dancers nor are they minus the ability to keep up their end of an interesting con- versation.Not far away sit our so-called wall-fiowers. These attractive lassies are very capable of trip ping the light fantasticf' We do not blame these fellows for wanting to dance with the popular belles of the evening. We do blame them, though, for not giving one of these gals the chance to prove herself an entertaining partner. Thanks For Everything N BEHALF of Woodward and the faculty, we wish to express our thanks to Miss Grace Cronk and the welfare department for the splendid work they have done in the past. Although this work is very tedious, the results shown are very favorable. We are sure their helping hand is deeply appreciated by all who benefit by it. f Here's hoping for just as much success in the uture. IN OUR LIBRARY Fan-ny Kemble is a delightful biography by Margaret Armstrong, depicting the life of the great actress of the Victorian era. Fanny became an actress very sud'denly in an effort to save her father's theatreg her rise to the peak of success is vividly pictured. The actress was prominent in society in both England and America, and her Georgia Journal published during the Civil War period was a great influence. All This and Heaven Too by Rachel Field is a murder mystery revolving around Henrietta Deluzy- Desporteo, a governess in the chateau of the Duc et Duchesse de Praslin. Henriette has been used as an unsuspecting pivot in the crime, and pleads her own case before the Chancellor of France. The story of this woman of great fortitude is really the life of Rachel Field's great-aunt. An atmosphere of suspense and impending disaster pervades throughout the story, Rebecca, by Daphne DuMaurier. Rebecca, the mistress of an English coun- try house, has actually been dead eight months at the beginning of the book, but evidences of her strong character make her the most prominent person. The story is told in the first person by Rebecca's husband's second wife who's a weak, frail creature. The book is filled with many superb characters.

Waite advanced the count to 20- Jat halftime and maintained a com- rrtable 29-15 lead at the three quarter mark. Little Bill Copeland was the only -ear who was able to hit the hoop with :me consistency, bucketing nine mark- rs. Hank Lepiarz and Jack Martin, oth of whom went out on fouls, were Iaite's scoring cogs, getting ten and ine markers, respectively.

NATIONALS TAKE 3 FROM DeVILBISS Nats Land In First Placeg Amerks Repress Opponents Wresting away three games from the DeVilbiss quintet with their 2,539 total, the National League team shot into first place as the first round of the conference ended last Saturday. They lead the sec- ond place Macomber mechanics by one game. Scott really had his eye on the ball when he rapped out a high 591 total coming on games of 202-211-178. He was the leading National bowler. Second high individual was Durka, who shot a neat 196 following up with his three game total of 532. Duplicating the feat of the National League, the Americans made a clean sweep of a three games series from the DeVilbiss pinsters. Barczak led his team to victorywhen he slammed out his 231 and ended up with a 192-184 for a splendid 607 three game total. Zawacki tied the single game totals at the Auditorium Alleys when he rolled a big 245. His 594 total was another factor in the American league three game total of 2,751 which is second high of the season. After averaging up the scores for the first half ofthe season, Dan Barczak led both teams with his exceptionally fine 187. He is now one of the highest bowlers in the league. Scott leads his team with a 181 aver- age. Tomorrow the Nats will meet the upcoming Libbey squad, while the Americans' will have to repress the Libbey No. 1 team. The individual scores are: National American Scott 202 211 173 Zawacki 245 Ga'ro'ski 149 157 174 Z'cho'iCz 136 Durka 196 171 165 Marok 160 Ott 133 183 A'tos'e's'i167 Kime, Jr, 178 178 149 Barczak 192 Mmkbon WJE9. 357 836 846 900 A terrific battle ensued last Monday as the National league team bowled against a group of Woodward girls. Both teams chalked up one victory to their credit. Paced by Cliff Kimels neat 201, the Nats rallied to defeat the fairer sex by two pins. Virginia Carpenter led her team to victory in the second game by spilling the pins for a smashing 179. The Nationals were represented by Kime, Ott, Zellas, McMahon, Scott,Dur ka, and Gawronski. Virginia Carpenter, Helen Trautman, Dorothy Kohne, Mary Aberling, and Kate Braunshweiger composed the Woodward girl group. The femmes were spotted 300 pins per game. GIRLS' I-M SCHEDULE The girls' basketball schedule finds the following games coming up this week: February 14 Blue and White Stars vs. Varsity Cubs Yams vs. Bombshells Bombers vs. All Americans Blue Birds vs. Out Laws February 15 L a m b e t h Hot Shots vs. White Knights Bombers vs. All Stars Whiz Bangs vs. Floogies Polar Bears vs. Red Hot Speedsters February 16 Jitterbugs vs. Mystery Players Blue Birds vs. All American Girls Snaps vs. Flying W's Varsity Cubs vs. Bombshells February 17 Straight Shooters vs. Flashes Flying Freshmen vs. Out Laws Yams vs. Polar Bears Sophomore Stars vs. Red Hot Speedsters Be-at Central CAGERS ATTEMPT TO LOSE MR. JINX Polar Bears Oppose Central On Irish Hardwood At 8 Tonite When the Woodward Bears invade Central's gymnasium for a tussle with the Irish tonight, they will have two main objectives. In the first place, they will be out to avenge the 28-25 defeat inflicted upon them by Central earlier in the season. Secondly, the Polar Bears will attempt to snap their sickening losing streak which has per- mitted them to win only one game in the last five. Tonight, the Irish hold the odds. The game will be played on the Central floor, thus giving them an outstanding advantage, from the Bears' standpoint. For the past two seasons, the Wood- ward squads have been unable to cope witht heir opponents when the contest is played on a foriegn court. Then, Central holds the upper hand in that they will be playing a team that is rid- den with injuries. Bill Copeland, Earl Ford, Bill Haffelder, Zig Kaminski, and Ted Nowak all have injuries of some sort. As you probably know, Central won the city title Tuesday night when they defeated Scott, 54--36. Had Woodward beaten Waite, the Bears would have stood a chance of finishing the season in a first place tie. If Central wins to- night, the Bears will slip a notch in the city standing while Waite or DeVilbiss will move up. In the starting line-up, Coach Hanham will probaly employ Klonowski and Copeland at forward,Kaminski and Ford at guards, and either Nowak or Camp- bell in the pivot position. Spring Dance Junior Play Spring Dancev by Phillip Barry is the play to be given by the junior class, March 30. Harley Lucas has been cho- sen student director. Miss Kellogg has talked to students interested in taking part in the play and will probably cast it next week with Harley's help.

Mrs. Stella Harre will obtain one of these tables for her group, the other has not been reserved. These tables are standard size but can easily be stored in a very small room.

Throwing snow in the crowded buses is not the way ofa gentleman. Evidently some children think it funny to litter up the buses with snow and paper and then leave it in such a condition that the seats are not fit to sit in. The buses are used to carry passengers after you get offand the Community Traction Co. wants to maintain their policy of safe, clean buses. Most peopleudress up in their best clothes to go to church on Sunday, why can't you dress up in your best man- ners while you are going to and from school on the buses. When the children leave school, they carry the name of Woodward with them across town and if throwing snow, yell- ing out the windows, and the general roughness on the buses is wrecking in any part the already good name of Woodward, then I don't want any part of it. William Rogers BERTRAND RUSSEL LECTURES ON WAR English Lord Cites 3 Courses For America To Follow If War Comes Bertrand Russel, distinguished Eng- lish lord, declared in his Town Hall ad' dress that the world is in an extraordina' rily dangerous situation. Pondering on the new industrial and military tech- niques of our generation, the eminent speaker expressed the desire to have the world be as it was in the '60's, compara- tively free from hate and war and blood- shed. England and France are prepared to do almost anything to prevent war, he said, and then revealed his beliefthat there will be no war this year, and per- haps never. In case war does come, Lord Russel declared that there are three courses for the United States to take: ill to remain neutralg 123 to fight only in case of an aggressive warg andt3l to enter the war after it has been in progress. The last course was declared, by the Englishman, to be the least advisable of the three. As for the second course, Lord Russel considers this the bestg for if Hitler and Mussolini think that the United States will participate, they won't carry on a war of aggression. The first stages of the war will be favorable to the Germans and disastrous to England, he prophesied, but the English will overtake Germany as the war progresses. The speaker then turned his attention to the Far East, for, he said, What is happening in China is more important than any thing in Europe. He than made the startling statement that if America chose, Japan could be defeated. America has done more than any other nation in the war against China, by. her sales of oil and steel to Japan. Lord Russell emphasized the fact that these sales were made solely for the profit in them. The nobleman concluded his talk with the unchallenged declaration that war is the supreme evil in the world at the present time. Toledo Citizens To Hear Four Education Programs Weekly In order that Toledo citizens might be able to hear four educational pro- grams every week instead of two, the Adams family serial, formerly heard from WSPD at two p.m. every Tuesday and Thursday, will now be heard fifteen minutes earlier, at one forty-five p.m. A new program, which will be spon- sored by the educational department of the National Broadcasting Company, will be heard at the former Adams family time. The Tuesday programs will concern science, and the Thursday pro- grams will be based upon social science. JUNIOR PROM HEAD PREDICTS SUCCESS Nick Shemas Also Reveals His Reason For Anticipating This Junior Event I believe that if the J-Hop is sup- ported by the students, it will be one of the biggest successes that a J-Hop has ever been, declared Nick Shemas- general chairman of the prom. Nick is confident of success, thanks to a cooperative committee, and is eagerly anticipating the event himself as he is escorting Jean Douglas. As president of the Little Theatre Guild, this dark, five foot eleven inch junior develops his main interest which is dramatics. As a vocation he would like to be a switch board operator in a movie theater. Nick is a native of Peoria, Illinois, where he was born on May 22, 1922. He likes to swim and play basketball, and enjoys historical movies such as Jessie James. 'tl am not afraid of spinach, Nick bravely stated when asked about his favorite food. He was a counselor at the Friendly Center camp at Port Clinton last sum- mer. Handicraft interests Nick greatly, leather craft and model airplanes being his favorites. He is, at present, occupied in making a pair of leather moccasins. Tattler Staff Defeats Saga 18-123 Moores, Hogg Stars A new, bloodthirsty Tattler staff bounced out on the gym floor to trounce the deadly Saga squad 18-12 last Wed- nesday. Sparking the newspaper's attack, Bill Moores swished the buckets for 12 points. George Hope bagged himself three points. Joe Sternialski contrib- uted two buckets, while Richard Semler backed him up with one foul. Frank Hogg, the dribbling terror of the Saga, broke away to chalk up seven points for his team. Stopped by the sterling defense of the Tattler, Dick Scarisbrick and Horatio Jex were lim- ited to but a few points. The final and deciding game between the two teams will be played sometime in the future. Teachers Hold Dinner-Dance .

IN ADDRESS Noted Personality B-elieves Outstanding American To Be Abe Lincoln I think that United States is the greatest country on the face of the earth, declared E. L. Bowsher, superin- tendent of Toledo schools, in his Na tional Defense Week address, What America Means To Me. Mr. Bowsher talked to juniors and seniors in the auditorium, Monday, third hour. A man may be successful in this country, be he rich or poor, Mr. Bow. sher said in regard to the rise to fame of our great leaders. He referred to America as a refuge for all types of people. Before the United States came into existence, there was no such thing as democracy. The people who came here and settled this country were forced by their own ideals. They didn't quibble, but gave everything they had to the cause. Of Lincoln, Mr. Bowsher said, To me, the greatest, most outstanding Ameri- can was Abraham Lincolnf' He con- siders Lincoln the typical American, and quoted passages from his two in- augural addresses. The audience first sang two verses of America led by L. C. Clark, which was followed by the Gettysburg address, given by Richard Durham. Miss Dorothy Warner sang America, the Beautiful accompanied by Dorothy Kincaid. Prom Committee, Cabinet Circulate Dance Petitions Petitions for the senior prom, which will be held at the Trianon ball room on April 21, are being circulated by mem- bers of the senior prom committee and the class cabinet.

Fred Saba and Jeannette Levine, co- chairmen of the prom, are aided by Bonnie Jean Zirwes, head of the invita- tion committee, Frank Scott and Jane Weeks, handling the publicity for the dance, Mary Ganzel, Mary Jane Smor- owski, and Ernest Navarre. All students, especially the seniors, are urged to sign the petitions.

When the rings are ordered, a two dollar down payment must be made. The announcements are plain designs, with technical differences in the matter of paper and crest colors. Numbers one and two are priced at six and a quarter cents a piece. Number three will cost five and a quarter cents. All come with two enve- lopes each. Richard Durham Is Praised For Giving Famous Address 'Tm just a jitterbug at heart, an- nounced Richard Durham, the senior lad who gave the Gettysburg Address, Monday, third hour. He has never traveled much outside of Toledo where he was born seventeen years ago. A product of Hamilton grade school, Richard is 5'5 tall and he totes around 120 pounds. When questioned as to how he liked the oral expression class, the young orator said that he liked it a lot. Busi- ness training and history are also among his favorites. He enjoys basket- ball and in the summer prefers a good swim. Surgery is his aim in life and next year he hopes to attend either Lincoln University or Fisk. He is a member of the Fasces Club and the Alchemist society. Starting Grayfish Mystery Takes Place In Biology Class A happy family of little crayiish once lived a merry existence in the sink of Mrs. Mary O'Brien's classroom. One day, by fair means or foul, the plug was pulled and the whole family disappear- ed with the w--ater. For an entire year, students, teacher, former friends, and possibly relatives mourned for the de- parted. Last week, a lone crayiish was discov- ered roaming around in this same sink. He had evidently come back to console the survivers. His return is one of those deep dark mysteries. G.A.L. Leaves Impression The Girls' Atheletic League were de- termaned to have the Skirt and Sweat- er Swing' leave a lasting impression, which it did on the cafeteria. It seems that Charlotte Hertszch secured some carpenter's chalk to number the walls and tables of our dining room for checking convenience. The chalk, which has a very permanent quality, will prob- ably be in evidence in the cafeteria to remind us of that glorious dance for some time to come.

Although it will not be given until March 30, we must begin planning now to make it a great BVBIIS. We may do our small part by elling the quota of tickets assigned to us. Let every junior set that date aside now, so there will be no doubt of his attending this second big event of the junior year. It Happened Here F WE hadn't seen it, we wouldn't believe it be- cause it is so incredible. A boy threw, with all his strength, an English textbook at an unsus- pecting victim who was approximately ten feet away. The book landed on the tioor, pages scattered, and the binding was utterly broken. That was his idea of humofr. In the cafeteria some prankster pulled the chair from beneath a student about to be seated and that student was badly hurt--another victim of an ugly caprice. Everyday one may see a prankster place a tack on a chair soon to be occupied, or see one student give another a playful push down the stairs, and these people seem to have no idea of the serious results such goings on can bring about. If this truly is the case, it is time we all realized what fatal occurrences can result from doing these things which, if they don't end fatally, end only in broken friendships. or in a one-minute laugh that isn't worth the risk we take to get it. Stop--- Danger Ahead NSATISFACTORIES will be issued March 6, Although, it is probably too late for someone who is going to receive one unsat or more to do much about it now, there is still time for him to improve his work before grade card time. Lack of interest, enthusiasm, and perseverance, habitual absence, and refusal to work are the prin- cipal reasons one's work is ineffectual. Anyone, re- gardless of intelligence or ability, can satisfy his teacher if only he makes an honest attempt to ab- sorb the information being offered. During the next half of this quarter, let us, at least, try to gain some knowledge of our subjects. Every instructor will appreciate the effort and grade accordingly. Unsats are danger signals, heed them. , Y , , A..- S-. ml, GGX We are coming to the end of the short- V' ' , est but most illustrious month of the K A year. Blessed with only twenty-eight days ' and occasionally twenty-nine, the month ' of February contains the birthdays of 3-9: 1 more famous men than any other month. During the past several years the week N . , - . surrounding the birth date of Lincoln has been given over to organizations foster- ing better relations between the white and colored races. On the Sunday of that week Negro pastors preach from the pulpits of their white associates and the Caucasian ministers in turn preach to colored congregations. This is a friendly gesture of good will and certainly aids in a better understanding between the two races. Just recently there has orginated National Defense Week. This comprises the time between the birthday of Lincoln and that of Washington. The necessity for this has arisen from the generally troubled aspect of the times. We do not like to think of war or to be burdened by war preparation, but when all other nations are in a mad race ofarming we can do nothing but prepare to defend our country and our form of government. This National Defense Week is a good time for us to do some plain thinking about what our country means to us. It meant so much to Washington that he risked everything to free it from oppression and establish it firmly upon its present foundation. It meant so much to Lincoln that he made the supreme sacrifice to keep it undivided. Let us remember that this is the same country with even greater opportunities for better living for which these two great men were willing to die. So when we sing My country 'tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty let's put the real emphasis in thought on the first words, My Country. Dope Digger Dear Cutie: It has been rumored around school, lately that Honey Klonowski should live in Egypt. Please Explain. Dear Know Knothing, So's he could have an easily acquired harem. See?

Clod-Hoppers Woodward lassies haven't learned how to get along without shoes yet, so as long as they are inevitable, we have here the styles. The latest thing in foot-ware is the klip-klopy kind, with their souls made of the common tree. The sound effects of this particular variety are pleasing too. Girls are still wearing saddle shoes. Why they are called that, we can't guess, but the name sounds like it ought to have something to do with horses. A lot of ankles are being kept lovingliy warm by their mistresses this winter. This interesting process is done by the use of boots, which are probably the grandchildren of some nice pair of hip boots that the males use for fishing. . . Heels are being discreetly hidden this year. They're there all right, but they melt right into the sole or should we call them wedgies'? Some legs are still peeping at admiring observers through grape vines. Guillies, of course. You know, the long strings with the shoes attached. There are, of course, some very strange versions of the common oxford still floating around. Some have air-conditioning while others have sails attached which go napping merrily in the breezes. If we see any more, we'll let you know. I are a sight I is disgust. Me clothes, a fright Me hair is mussed. As you all know, I is so small That I get stepped on in the hall.

SCHEDULE TON ITE If Bears Win, They Will End Season In Second Placeg Play On Home Court The Woodward Bears will drop the curtain on the finale of their 1938-1939 city basketball campaign tonight when they play host to the invading Bulldogs from Collingwood Avenue. Scott, usually a top contender for the title in previous years, has been slip- ping lately. Judging from the Bulldog's record the Blue and White cagers should experience little difhculty in Rowing the Merkelmen on the home oor. Should the Bears win tonight, Wood- ward will roost unchallenged in the second place berth and maintain its record of never finishing a season below fourth place, under Homer Han- ham. On the other hand a defeat would afford the Waite Indians a chance to surpass the Bears in the city standings. Penn, DeBord, Vickroy, Jones, and Keezer will probably comprise the Bulldog's starting lineup for the eve- ning's tilt. For Woodward will be Klonowski and Copeland at the forward positions, Nowak taking over the pivot circle, and Kaminski and Ford teaming at the guard posts. Another defeat was chalked up against the Bulldog record when De- Vilbiss took them into camp, Monday, by a 30-19 count. This loss gave Scott a season record of two wins and nine losses. lm Reserves Humiliate Central Seconds, Win Sixth Contest The ever-improving Woodward re' serve squad posted a three game win' ning streak as they demolished an im' pressive Central quintet Friday, 38-EO. After lagging behind in the first can- to, the Bears ignited their scoring spark and gained a lead which was held throughout. The score at the half was 15-12, Woodward. Dick Koster regained his scoring eye and bagged thirteen points to head the Bears. Konz and MacFarland scored six and eight markers to follow their teammate.

Bowling Teams Have Relapse ln Weekly Games Blasted out of first place, the Nation- al league bowling team tumbled into the second spot after losing three games to the Libbey squad. The Bears are only one game ahead of the deadlocked De- Vilbiss and Libbey teams while Ma- comber occupies first place. The games were tight affairs, and both teams seemed evenly matched, neither taking the lead for over a few frames. The Cowboys emerged victori- ous with such slim margins as 3 pins in the second tussle, and by 8 pins in the third. Scott's high total of 531, coming on games of 165-184-182, was the foundation ofthe Nat's defense. Belting outa beauti- to their credit while losing the other two to the Libbey No. 1 quintet. Antoszewski led the bowling parade when he pounded out a hot 235 ending with a smashing total of 567. Barczak hung up a fine 507 series total to place second high in his squad. Last Saturday marked the beginning of the second half of the bowling round. The Amerks and the Nationals changed alleys. , Tomorrow, the National league team will have to squash the DeVilbiss No.2 five to put them back on the top ofthe list, while the Americans will face Cen- tral No. 1.

They snapped Central's eight game winning streak, avenged the defeat hung on them earlier in the season by the Irish, and eluded Mr. Jinx, who caused them to lose four of five games before meeting Central. The score was 28 26. Central started its scoring with the crack of the gun and held Woodward in check for five minutes while the Irish made the score read 4-0. The Bears started hitting on long shots but couldn't overcome the deficit. Only after the second half began, when the score was tied at fifteen points, were the Bears within striking distance. Central advanced the count to 26-23 with four minutes remaining when the Bears literally turned on the heat. Kaminski dropped in a long fielder and the teams fought on even terms for three minutes before Ted Klonowslgi netted a sucker shot to forge Woodward into the lead. Copeland add- ed a foul shortly before the end to put the game on ice. Although the victory failed to make a change in the standings, it strength- ened the Bears' hold on second place. Leading point-getters for the evening were Copeland and Kaminski who scored eighteen points between them. Adams hit for ten to lead Central.

LLL ..., 1-11- . 1-11 FREDERIC SNYDER J TUTOR WANTS DATE TALKS AT TOWN HALL Speaker Claims That News Received Its Name From Compass News got its name from the four points ofthe compass, stated Frederic Synder, while addressing the Town Hall audience of February 18. The speaker explained that in the old days a big bulletin board was put in the public square and the news was put there daily under their respective places. If the news was from the West, they placed it under a large W. He declared that news travels so fast that Berlin is only two seconds away from New York, and Tokio is eleven seconds away. Of the 88 newspapers in New York alone, there are a million pennies taken in daily, the speaker exclaimed. He emphasized that newspapers do not al- ways make money on big scoops. The Lindberg case cost the newspapers of America thirty million dollars. That foreign affairs make the best news because of tension over there be- tween Germany, Italy, France, and Eng- land was another statement of the headline hunter. A temple was being built before the Warg but in 1914 the temple floor cracked, and Adolph Hitler is one of the rats that crept in, was a strong conviction of Mr. Synder. Copeland, Koster Continue To Maintain Scoring Leads Little Bill Copeland's ten counters in the Bear-Irish tilt ran his season's total to 100. Bill is closely followed by Ted Klonowski, who has 87 points to his credit. By making 13 points in the Central encounter, Dick Koster wrested the re- serve scoring lead from Charlie McFar- land with 59 counters, four better than Chuck's 55. Following are the leaders: VARSITY RESERVE Copeland 100 Koster 59 Klonowski 87 McFarland 55 Kaminski 69 Konz 50 Ford 37 Jaschke 41 Nowak 37 Haddad 31 Haffelder 36 Hertszch 21 speech High-nights I The following comments were some of the high spots of the lecture given by Mrs. Linda Littlejohn of Australia, February 16.

WITH ARCHIMEDES Mrs. Eula Upp You may fool some of the people some of the time, all of the people all of the time, but you can't fool Mrs. Eula Upp any of the time. Her subtle clever wit keeps her math students right on their toes. I would be immensely pleased if I could have a good talk with the ancient philosophers who declared that perpe- tual motion was impossible, announced the trig instructor. They have never seen a gum chewer in class. Although she was graduated from Ohio State University and hails from Libbey, being a native Toledoan, Mrs. Upp screams as loud as any of the rest for Woodward at the athletic contests. This former science teacher of Sherman thought that she composed at least half of the cheering section at the recent Woodward-Central game. Pecan pies generously padded with whipped cream, and creamy fudge bars are my specialties disclosed the algebra teacher alias the cook in her own house- hold. With her husband, Melvin Upp, and accompanied by her dog Trig, she often spends long hours hunting and hiking. I love to fish, but I can never summon enough courage to bait the hook or remove the fish from the line. Another Charley McCarthy fan, Mrs. Eula Upp divides her time between him and the Sunday Symphony Con- cert. She reads a variety of good books but pieces on art and science com- pose most of her library. I love to dance! exclaimed the ge- ometry teacher. The pupils who saw her at the J-Hop verified this state- ment. SPORT SHORTS By Fish And Hope A call to all tryouts for pitcher and catcher positions was sent out by Leo Robie,baseball coach.

From the demonstrations that have been viewed by outsiders and some oi the student body, it would appeal that they are not. In former years the spectators at oul basketball games have taken it on the chin when decisions were made in oul opponents favor. Why should our atti tude change, especially when our schoo is in the public eye, so to speak? It doesn't take much intelligence tc realize that all decisions made by the officials cannot be for Woodward. Let's not lower the morale of oui school by resorting to booing and hiss ing. Jeanne Mills A Rebuke For Clubs Dear Editor: What is happening to our clubs? Sure ly we aren't going to let them go on th4 rocks. The responsibilities should be shared by all members, but only a com paratively small number take any intel est at all. Many only join to have theii pictures in the Saga. At one of the other high schools al clubs were stopped for a year.

Furgid Salads Proved To Be Satisfactory In Experiment Turgidity vs. Plasmolysis! The battle if the century was held in an innocent lass room yesterday lunch hour, un- Lnown to the common passerby. , Miss Grace Cronk's sixth hour botany lass experimented by eating health alads, one kind turgid, and the other lasmolized. The main idea was to etermine the effect of osmosis on ants, in particular, vegetables. One salad was made with shredded w vegetables which had been soaked vwater, making them turgid, or, in nderstandable language, swollen. The ssult was pleasing. However, the ther mixture was made of the same lgredients, but without the soaking, taking them plasmolized or shrunken. onfidentially, it tasted like pieces of annel. So take heed. Eat turgid health llads every day, for they are colorful ad inexpensive, besides being whole- me. li!

X D WOODWARD LOSES FRIEND, TEACHER Miss Woodrich We will grieve not, rather find Strength in what remains behind. Teacher in Woodward for nine years, and active adviser of the Freshman Friendship club, Miss Rozella Woodrich succumbed in Toledo hospital Saturday February 25, after a short illness. She has indeed left us much by which to remember her. Some knew her better than others but everyone knew of her patience, and helpfulness, and the ready smile with which she greeted all whom she met. We can appreciate the sorrow the Friendship club must feel at losing such an adviser, for they, especially, know what pleasure there was in work- ing with her. Services preceding her burial in Oak Harbor were held Monday,February 27, at 1:30 P.M. in the James Clegg funeral home, and at 2:00 P.M. in St.Pau1's Luth- eran church. Students were excused at 1:15 P.M. to enable all who wished to attend to pay a last tribute to the be- loved personality. For the present, Mrs. Katherine Din- ius will instruct the classes formerly taught by Miss Woodrich. li-il.. Bears Give Macomber 40-15 Shellacking In Tournament Macomber Vocational, Woodward's first obstacle in their march to the dis- trict title, was completely obliterated in their set-to with the Bears last night at the Field House, being humiliated by a 40-15 count. ' By virtue of this victory and DeVil- biss'win over Sylvania, these two teams will meet in one of the feature attrac- tions tonight. Managing to tag along until the sec- ond quarter, the Craftsmen were on the downbeat of a 9-8 score when they fell completely apart. Taking advantage of the fortunate situation, the Bears turn- ed Copeland, Kaminski and Klonowski loose to run the score to 15-10 at half time. Lou Torda's four points and Koren's foul were the only markers Vocational was able to chalk up, in the last half as Woodwards second string continued the rampage for the remainder of the tilt. The Bears scored 25 points in the last half, with Bill HafTelder's eight points being the highlight of the drive. Kaminski and Copeland each netted seven points as every Bear excepting Campbell 'figured in the scoring. Torda hit eight to lead Macomber. Craftsmen Allen and Hojnicki were ejected on fouls. Mauch Twins Seen Today Afull length movie, Penrod's Double Trouble, starring Billy and Bobby Mauch, and a short, Romance in Lou- isiana, were shown third and fourth hours today in the auditorium. The fourth hour class will be doubled next Tuesday. SOPHOMORE CLASS WILL PRESENT MAGICIAN IN PLACE OF CLASS PLAY ' M THREE SUBSTITUTE TEACHERS QUIZZED Mrs. Carl Hula, Melvin Carl, Mrs. W. H. Fitkin Grant Brief Interviews I think Woodward students are very well behaved and I enjoy teaching them, stated Mrs. Carl Huls, substi- tute for Miss Helen Griflin, who has been in St. Vincents Hospital with a bronchial ailment. Mrs. Huis was born in Athens, Ohio, and was educated at Ohio University at Athens, and at the- University of Wisconsin. She substi. tuted in Woodward once before, for Mr Brown. Students have come to know Melvin Carl quite well in the past two weeks, as he substituted for Clyde Meek, during ,the latter's absence last week, and is now taking over the classes of Miss Katherine Brown. He is a native To- ledoan, and he received his education at Toledo University and Michigan ,State Normal college. He likes sports, basketball and tennis in particular, and also likes to travel. Mrs. W. H. Fitkin, who substituted for Mrs. Mary O'Brien the Hrst part of this week, was especially impressed by the fine equipment of the biology rooms. She said that it surpasses any- thing she has ever seen in classrooms. Mrs. Fitkin is a Toledoan and she stud- ied at Ohio State where she specialized in biology. She likes to actually see the phenomena she teaches about, and has visited several famous biological lab- oratories.

Lost--- A Friend HERE comes a time when we hesitate in writ- ing an editorial. We know that there aren't words, phrases, or paragraphs fitting enough to express the deep regret and sadness which we feel in losing sucha valuable friend and teacher as Miss Rozella Woodrich. We were all inspired by her kind nature and patient effort. A leader in extra-curricular activities, she won many friends through her industrious ac- tivity. Long will she be remembered. Thanks For Everything HIS yearwe were blessed with an unusual oppor' tunity. We were fortunate enough to have our school chosen to be the center of radio work sponsored by the Board of Education. The project was placed under the capable hands of Miss Dorothy Kellogg. A great number of people would have accepted the responsibility as just another task, but not this able instructor. Knowing her as we do, we are not surprised at the amount of efort put into the work.She has grasped the oppor- tltinity and, with great diligence, is making the most o it. Praise also should be given to the students who work on these broadcasts. We can't exaggerate the time and energy these people have been putting in- to the work. Gratitude must be extended to the Board of Ed- ucation for sponsoring these student broadcasts. With foresight it has realized the importance of radio and the future possibilities for students in this field. It is doing a great benefit by offering to the schools, and to Woodward in particular, this opportunity. In short, thanks for everything. We Want More! N OFT-REPEATED phrase of many seniors after they had attended November 23's class meeting was, Oh, it was a picnic! Consequently, we should like to take this oppor- tunity to praise the senior program committee for devising such a unique method of entertainment, Althougah this Quiz Bee idea has been used many times efore, in this instance it was handled in such a way as to produce an amusing, enjoyable, and entertaining program.

In Our Library For those who want lots of comedy in their reading, of H 'Y 'M 'AtN K'A 'P 'L 'A 'N, by The Education Leonard Q. Ross, ought to fill the bill. Hyman Kaplan smiling foreigner, who is studying is a jolly, ever English in the beginners' class for adults in New York. His beautiful, carefully printed signature in red and blue letters with green stars between, adds to his al- ready extraordinary character. Teacher, Mr. Parkhill, finally decides that his energetic pupil is not ignorant, but just logical. K-A-P-L-A-N's superlatifs are par- ticularly fine, some examples being: cold, colder and below freezingg and good, better, and high class. In letter writing, oral and written compositions, and sentence structure, Mr. Kaplan is supreme, and by the light of his celestial smile, he carries his class and his readers through to a satisfying finish. n s s Dunant, The Story of the Red Cross, by Martin Gumpert, is an enlightening biography of the father of the Red Cross. Few people know the story of this man, and the circumstances leading to the founding of his great organization in 1864. Dunant was originally a wealthy banker, but in his effort to humanize war, he lost all his money and be- came friendless. He was discovered old and poor in a little Swiss village in 1901 and was awarded the first Nobel Peace prize. This money, he gave to charity, and re- mained in his retreat until his death, nine years later. However, the Red Cross has lived on, and this book is- a plea for its future,that it will become a cross of peace, as well as war.

They are only one game be- hind the Craftsmen while well ahead of the third place Libbey No. 1 and Central No. 1. With exceptionally fine rounds of 844-857-866, the Nats were in rare form as they smashed out a 2,567 total which paced the other school teams. Gawronski started the march toward victory when he pounded out a steam- ing 202 in the first game, backing it up Clinging to fifth place, with an ever tightening grip, the American league team put up a scrappy fight as they triumphed over the Central No. 1 squad for one game but lost the other two. Barczak rapped out a sizzling 205 single game total to break into the double century club. Second high indivi- dual was Zawacki,whose hot 191 played a large part in the winning of the second ame Cli in Zawacki's heel b one the lower roster. Last year Woodward ran offwith the tournament title, winning three games by five points and defeating Libbey in a thrilling overtime session, 20 -- 18. Central looks like the team to beat this year, although picking teams at the present is risky. Woodward, Vocational, Sylvania, DeVilbiss, Whitmer and Libbey have had opportunities to become acquainted with the University's large fioor in last night's oppening schedule. The other teams having drawn byes in Monday's seeding.

ROSE QUONG SPEAKS BEFORE TOWN HALL Chinese Lecturer-A c t r e s s Appears As Last Guest In Speech Series Rose Quong, Chinese lecturer-actress, spoke before a large Town Hall audience last Saturday at the Commodore Perry Hotel. Dressed in her native oriental cos- tume, Madame Quong revealed in her topic, The Soul of China, some very old and fine truths. She firmly believes the soul of old China, as well as ofmod- ern China, to be permeated with the thoughts of the old philosopher, Con- fucius, namely, Man by nature is born good, and the first thing he must learn is to live in peace. To preserve peace one should do unto others as one would have others do unto oneself. To make people happy they must first be fedg then educated. Madame Quong also stressed that Chinese boys and girls are eager to learn the English language, and that the modern Chinese woman is standing shoulder to shoulder with man. In such a proud and valiant land, with so noble an heritage, will it ever be possible to recognize the Chinese people as a con- quered province? This, the last in a series of Town Hall lectures, was attended by Helen Scheidler. Femme's Locker Rooms Give Conglomeration Of Articles Everything from soup to nuts has been found in the girls' shower rooms since the beginning of school. At pres- ent there are two sweaters, innumer- able anklets, and a variety of belts on hand in the apparel department, while gold beads, several crosses, aCatho1ic medalion, and a bracelet inscribed with the name Elva are included in the jewelry which has been found. If anyone has any knowledge of to whom these articles belong, the care- takers of the locker rooms will be only too glad to give them up. You might glance over them. Perhaps you'll find that long-lost anklet. Who can tell? Mrs. Carolyn Hatfield's eighth hour art class is making linoleum block prints of landscapes, animals and peo- p e. GYM IN STRUCTORS ATTEND MEETINGS Miss McClure, Mrs. Harre Travel To Detroit For Assembly A trip to the progressive Education Convention at Detroit last weekend proved to be very enjoyable to Miss Catherine McClure and Mrs. Stella Harre, the only two teachers from Woodward who attended the meetings. Convention headquarters were at the Book-Cadillac Hotel where most of the meeting were held. All ofthe lectures and demonstrations were based on the theme, Building secondary school curriculurns on the needs of the adolescent. The Progres- sive Education organization is built on the belief that every person should have individual training rather than group training. There are at present very few schools who completely follow this plan, but Detroit schools are stead- ilv working toward this goal. Julien Bryan of New York presented an interesting movie on school under dictatorship. Titled Marching Child- ren, the film showed the regimentation of s ch ool children in the dictator countries. Evelyn Eastman, director .of Parent Education in Toledo Pu b l 1 c Schools, was one of the few Toledoans participating in the lectures. The sub- ject of her address was Toledo edu- cates for family life. ' The highspot of the convention was an address by Erika Mann, a native of Germany, who is now lecturing and writing in the United States. She spoke on Children in Goosestepf' MissMann stated that Hitler believes in develop- ing first the body, then the character, and finaly the mind. In this way he is attempting to keep the people ignorant of the conditions in Germany but is stressing military training to support his regime. - To conclude the convention, a dem onstration of folk songs and dances was given in the Detroit Institute of Arts by several comunity groups. Songs of the Ukraine were sung by the Nation- al Ukrainian chorus. Tashamira, .con- cert dancer from New York, did a Jugoslavian dance. The Midnight Sun Folk Dance society contributed several Swedish folk dances to the program. The first down payment of 32.00 and the ring size will be taken Monday. Q Three weeks ago Miss Rozalla Woodrz1ch's classes gf .J were studying about retreat in their history course. The melancholy nature of the subject inspired Phyllis Alberts, sophomore girl in Miss Woodrich's home- room, to put her thoughts in poetry.

The write maintained that we shunned schox work outside of the classroom an that our topic of conversation wa chiefly nonsense. The letter was we taken, and some of us braver one admitted that he was right. I bring this letter back to our men cry for one purpose-to strike at wha is behind all this nonsense. Wha makes us disregard all rules of court- sy? What makes us swear, show oi and try to act tough? What makes u be positively rude at times to teacl ers, cut classes, and be regular ol cut-ups. Fear is the answer. We're scared t death that if we try to act like civilize human beings we'll be ridiculed by som fool, who doesn't know the diH'erenc anyway. And we become cowards. W aren't brave enough to ignore these wea people and recognize them for what the are. That is the answer. That is a clue bi hind all the law-breaking and disru1 tions around the school. That is one c the worst crimes of soceity today--bein afraid. An awful thing. So the next time we make a play t the gallery, let's remember that som- body's calling us yellow. N.

Members Development of Classroom Utiliza- tion of Radio was the theme of the demonstration radio program given in DeVilbiss high school last Tuesday, at 3:30 p. m. before an audience of eight hundred teachers, school principals, and members ofthe Board of Education. After E. L. Bowsher, D. H. Patton, and H. D. Lamb, of the Board of Edu- cation, gave short addresses, Miss Doro- thy Kellogg, who is in charge of the direction of radio scripts, reproduced the studio presentations of one of the Education of the Adams Family scripts. A cast of Woodward high and Parkland grade school students took the roles they portrayed when the script was presented over the station WSPD. Audience discussions, a talk by Rus- sell Gohring, program director of said station, a demonstration of voice re- cording, and classroom utilization by Miss Eleanor McGourty and Miss Oliver McHugh were other features of the novel program. .-... ..i Student Council Discusses Carnival Concession Plans At the sixth Student Council meeting held in room 219, Wednesday, March 8, plans were discussed for a concession stand on Gayety Night. Joe Dense gave a good report on conditions in the halls during third hour. Because of new teachers who do not know of important rulings of the school, Mrs. K. Schuler suggested that measures important to the school morale be posted in the Tattler. These measures will solve problems now, which are bringing standards of Woodward to a lower grade. Nine Students Participate In Adams Family Program hose Woodward students participat- in in the Tuesday Adams Family script over station WSPD were Louis Emm, Marilyn Gell, Betty Stadler, Betty Mack, Sylvia Gottfried, Virginia Jachi- miak, Barbara Fisk,Carol Schwartz, and Delores Downing. Louis Emm, Betty Mack, Betty Sta- dler, Marilyn Gell, and Ruth Carlson enacted roles on the Thursday program. Student director was Narcissus Lesnie- wicz. Miss Dorothy Kellogg produced the programs. Remedial reading was the topic of the Tuesday program, while the Thurs- day program concerned seventh and eighth grade history. WOODWARD GAYETY NITE TO BE APRIL 28 Profits From This Affair Will Pay Portion Of Athletic Debt On April 28 Woodward's scholastic portals will open to one and allg booths and concessions will line the walls, stu- dent barkers will loudly entice you to see the greatest little shows an earth, and, oh, yes, you've guessed it---Gayety Nite. Those organizationswishing to have concessions should consult L. C. Clark who has charge of this branch of the affair. Joy Morehart and S. B. Crouse will direct the building of the booths. Heading the group who will obtain donations is lfloyd E. Lords. The money taken on Gayety Nite will be spent in several ways. Seventy- five per cent of the profits will be paid on the athletic debt. Six hundred dol- lars will be used to wire the building for a public address system. The whole system will cost 351800 which will be paid over a period of several years. And lastly, some of the money will be used to finish paying for the curtains in the auditorium. If every student would sell just four tickets, we could put this over with a bang, opined principal C. C. LaRue when consulted about the affair. Induction Of Honor Society Members Takes Place Apr. 19 Induction of new members into the National Honor society will take place on April 19 in the auditorium. The high- est 5 per cent of the juniors and the highest 10 per cent of the seniors will be admitted. After listening to an out- side speaker, all members will go to the cafeteria for luncheon. In previous years, scholarship was the sole basis for entrance, but I feel now that some consideration should be given to other factors, such as charac- ter and evidences of leadership ability, stated E. L. Clark, adviser of this organization. He added, however, that scholarship will still remain the main factor. Municipal Club Sends Five Sr. Boy Members To Mich. The Municipal club is sending five senior boy members to visit Greenfield Village at Dearborn, Michigan, Thurs- day, March 30. Michael Nalodka, Ernest Navarre, Joseph Aumeiller, Edward Pietrzak, and Elmer Miller will make the trip. The purpose is to give these boys an opportunity to see the Edison Insti- tute, the Ford Museum, the Ford motor company, and other buildings in the village. 250,000 Students To Complete Contest Entries By March 31 More than a quarter of a million students in 6,500 schools throughout the country will have completed their entries in the second annual American Youth Forum competition by the time the contest closes the last day of March, according to estimates an- nounced by John Dungan, director of the Forum. The writer of the best article on What I Owe America and What America Owes Me, or New Frontiers for American Youth, will receive 51,000, and the boy or girl who submits the winning graphic arts entry will receive the same amount. The two first prize winners also will get a Week's trip to New York and the Wor1d's Fair with all expenses paid. --.5-yy----'.rse31gq-fra-if-Wye-1.--,VS .-jf.nag-rvfvfvv-qj.af-.3--ies-may-gs-as-R.. .-ws -1-----sa,-if-V. . ,- F..-.. ..,. .,,,, ,, .,,,..,w.',,,,x-3 .,.T,,,,,,c,U,,, THE WOODWARD TATTLER THE WOODWARD TATTLER Published And Printed Every School Week by the Pupils of Wixcodiwgfglggigllpiychool.

All ballots will be turned over to the faculty committee appointed to choose the recipient of the award. The student choices will aid in the selecton of the outstanding senior. To receive this cup is a great honor. The senior who has worked hardest and best in the interestof his class and Woodward should be so complimented. Seniors, make your choice of the Achievement Cui? vsiinner on the basis of accomplishments in sc oo . About Chaperons HE complaint that we are about to make centers around the dances of Woodward, and those . among the faculty who are asked to act as chap- erons at these affairs. Although as many as six in- structors are asked to take part, in some cases only two ever appear. There has, of course, been much illness during this year, but this has not been the reason in every instance for the laxity in attendance on these occa- sions. Without a doubt, almost every instructor has many interests to take up his time. In view of this fact, it perhaps would be better if we should ask the parents of the students, as well as teachers, to act as chaperons at future events. Let's Start Early gg AYETY NITEU is April 28. On that date Woodward students, alumnae, and friends will be welcome to enjoy our third annual carnival. This project is a very necessary part of our extra- curricular activities. The proceeds are used to provide funds for school improvements, and to help pay heavy athletic debts. A contemplated improvement will include the wiring of Woodward for radio reception. This event is worthy of the support of every loyal student and teacher. Clubs should begin to plan their concessions, for only if all cooperate fully, can we make this a successful affair. An Active Organ OMORROW the oral expression class journeys to Port Clinton to participate in a speech con- test. This is only one of the many affairs in which the class has taken part. It has been the sponsor of many auditorium programs. There have been P.T.A. programs, de- bates, and other speech activities. To Miss Dorothy Matheny, able adviser of the class, and to the class itself we should give our thanks for their industrious efforts. Suscribe to the new literary magazine, the Woodward Tempus. R ..s..,-.1,.a.u.. anal ... .c Isl. We are living today in a world of prop- aganda. Our ears are constantly assailed by commercial announcements over the l f - radio. All kinds of f'ood, all kinds of patent l medicine, all kinds of cosmetics are I .. ' brought to our attention in such a way that we can become strong, healthy, and 7 beautiful only by the use of such adver- tised products. The American public is in these things Radio Wise. We listen, shrug our shoulders and laugh the whole thing off. 1gjHowever, there is another and entirely different kind of propaganda. It was best exemplified in the matter of Germany's finally taking over the Sudeten territory of Czechoslovakia. Five years before this no one had paid any attention to this little strip of country. Then the propagandists began, quite softly at first, to instill into the German and Czech minds that Sudeten land was German land,that the Sudetens were Germansg that they were being cruelly treatedg that they were an oppressed minority and so on and on until the whole campaign was climaxed by the Munich agreement. To a certain extent some disloyal propaganda has been started in this country. Stories of the wonderful opportunities and splendid government in Russia. Stories of the weakness and disloyalty of our land, naval, and air forces have been spread, but fortunately they have hardly got beyond the whispering stage. We are beginning to counteract this now with some prop- aganda of our own. You will notice that our radio, our press, and our speakers in general are coming out into the open and are not ashamed to say they love America and that they will defend the democratic ideal of free speech and free assembly. And so, with this kind of propaganda started, America is safe. We have met and have conquered un-American propagan- dists with their own weapons, bigger and better prop. aganda.

OURNAMENT LOSS ENDS CAGE SEASON 1 1 1 l Homer Hanham l The curtain fell on the high school asketball careers of eight Woodward layers as the Bears dropped their sec- nd district tournament start to DeVil- Diss, 21-20, which automatically disqual- ifies them from further competition. 1 Ted Klonowski, Ziggy Kaminski, Earl ord, Ted Nowak, Bill Haffelder, Ted osciniak, Al Davis, and Howard Sahadi ompleted a successful season under omer Hanham, hanging up a seasons' tecord of eleven victories and six de- feats. Only Will Copeland, Minor Campbell, and George Jacobs will re- turn next year, the latter for but one temester due to an age ruling. Q Woodward started out like a house Efire, chalking up five Nowak points efore the Tigers discovered that the ' ame had started. Both teams then ex- Eibited strong defenses, with'a result that the Bears led by only one point at he intermission. DeVilbiss came back trong in the 'dnal canto, counting twice pn buckets by Bill Bennett to shove the core to 18-12 in their favor. Ford and aminski dropped in long shots that ied the score at 20 points with only a ew seconds remaining. At this point, Ed Kanney, who hadn't made a point all vening, was fouled. Kanney completed is charity toss and the gun sounded he end. Bennett was the main cog in the Ti- er scoring machine, counting 12 points, hile Zig Kaminski's six were the best oodward could produce.

NATIONALS GRAB 3 TILTS FROM SCOTT Antoszewski Spills 225 Pins For Amerksg Kime, Jr. Fires 202 Game A hot National League team cemented three more games to their prestige when they squashed Scott last Satur- day. Putting additional steam behind their march to victory, the boys are hard pressing the first place Craftsmen, who lead by only one game. Kime steel corded the Nationals when he rapped out a smoking 202 followed by games of 176-157 for a 535 total. Dur- ka collected a Hne 496 three game total, while Scott's neat 188 was one of the game highlights. Entrenched yet deeper into fifth place, the American league team ran away with a pair of games from Scott, leav- ing the bulldogs holding one in the bag. The Americans rolled a sky high 2,582 three game total, which topped the other high school scores. Antoszewski burned up the alleys when he killed the pins for a scorching 225 coming up with games of 172-182 to hand up a high record of a 579 total. Zawacki did more than his share when he pounded out games of 184-195-178 for a beautiful 557 total. Barczak strengthened the score by cleverly placing his shots for a 515 series. Although Sherman has been on the bowling list for a long time, last Satur- day was his iirst time in action. In one of the hottest contests of the year, the Nats and the Macomber mechanics are battling it out for first spot. The machinists are now swinging into the tough part of their schedule, and play the upcoming Central team tomorrow. All they need to do is drop one game, and the Nationals will tie them. The deciding game will probably be when the Nats and Macomber meet in two weeks at the Auditorium.

Lankenau for Practice Upon receiving the call for prospec tive outfielders, 15 vigorous hopefuls reported to Paul Lankenau, who is fill- ing the capacity of outfield coach while Leo Robie, head coach, watches the pitchers and catchers at work. Bill Haffelder is the only player left from last year's squad that roamed the gardens in center. Other lettermen re- turning are Bill Moores, a catcher, Zig Kaminski, who held down the hot corn- er, and Honey Klonowski, who made a name for himself at shortstop. Chuck McFarland, Leon Kwiatkow- ski, and Spence Eckhart are members of last year's second team. Lankenau played first base at De- fiance University. The call for infielders will soon be made,with the boys practic- ing in the gym until the weather permits going out on the diamond. The first league game is on April 25, but the Bears will probably play some pre-season games. Student Council Sponsors Lecture On Sportsmanship To make better sophomores out of this year's freshman, a special program will be held next Tuesday, March 14, in the auditorium to discuss the ways in which sportsmanship may be ap- plied in school life. This program is sponsored by the Student Council. Speakers will include Elmer Wohler, Paul Lankenau, and Arnold Brown. Their topics will be Sportsmanship.', Richard Semler will introduce the speakers, while the other members of I the council will take care of the doors.- BENEFITS SCHOOL Mr. William Rohr I think all individuals and organ- izations should have a definite purpose or program, declared William Rohr, adviser of the Engineering club, when questioned about the club's activities. To purchase fourteen oil paintings to adorn the walls around the auditorium and the welcoming space has been the first objective of the Engineering Soci- ety's definite program. Three have yet to be obtained, with one of the three being added next week. Members are now striving to raise money to buy musical instruments for the band, such as parade drums, cymbals and a saxophone. Two movies will be shown soon for this purpose. The organization also hopes to be able to purchase six collapsible gates, two for each fioor, to be used to close off the stairs at night activities. These gates, which cost S130 apiece, have long been needed in the school. Another part of the Engineering So- ciety's program is the annual trip to Dearborn. The club also is the only one in the city that enables the band to travel with the football team to an out of town game. Woodward has had an Engineering Society since its opening eleven years ago, but the club came into existence in 1921. It is now interested in forming an alumni association. Seniors Are Given Chance To Vote For Cup Recipient Seniors will be given a chance to vote for their choice ofthe outstanding senior to receive the Tattler Achieve- ment Cup. The vote will be taken in all social science classes on Tuesday, March 14. These votes, together with the votes turned in by juniors, sopho- mores, and freshmen, will be submitted to C.C.LaRue, head of the faculty com- mittee. The final decision will be made by the committee.

New Hall Painting Presented To School By Engineers Club A picture painted by Elizabeth Conrady showing a scene on the isle of Capri was presented to the school by the Engineering society. The painting, which shows a govern- ment building near the wharves with a castle in the background, was actually painted on the island. In ten days the picture will appear over the door to the boys shower room as a companion to the Dutch scene over the girls' gym door. ENGINEERING CLUB iPROMINENT SENIOR W ACHIEVES SUCCESS Malcolm Hogg Rates High As Student, Sportsman Swingster One of the few students who has swathed a path of achievement through high school is Malcolm Hogg. His four years of school life are studded with success. Because of his high scholastic record and all around qualifications, he was elected president of the National Honor Society. He is chairman of the gradua- tion committee, and is a member of the Forum club. Having finished second in the district examinations for Annapolis, Malcolm will journey to Chicago to compete a second time. ' At last year's Bowling Green contest, this senior boy placed highest in the city and second highest in the state for physics. He was selected in his junior year by the student council to be Woodward's representative to Boys' State. Although many students know Mal- colm the student, few know Malcolm the athlete and Ualligatorf' I respond mentally instead of physic- ally to jazz, laughed the business manager of the Saga. Mac enjoys skating and dancing. On the basketball court and on the baseball diamond, this senior is a poten- tial terror. He plays forward with the Saga Sissies. Baseball is his biggest interest. He can rattle off the standings,player, and brilliant plays of the major league teams with a moment's notice. Peach pie a la mode is my favorite dessert, yummed the high ranking senior. Sophomores To Have Irish Theme For Dance March 15 Amid an Irish atmosphere, Molly O'Shane's Shuffle will be presented by the Sophomore Friendship club March 15 after school.

S 1 K Al Davis was unable to see action in the tournament games because of an attack of influenza. 5 K F Spectators at the tournament were entertained by frequent solos on the slide whistle by Edmund Erndt. He even played duets. If F K We'd say Ed Kanney of DeVilbiss could easily grab honors as Public Ene- my No. 1 with Woodwardites. He's the one who made the winning foul shot at the tournament game with DeVilbiss. This is really news, 23 students din for only 60 cents. Miss Angela Abair's home economics classes demonstrated economy in planning meals by having 23 students served with a generous , portion of lamb stew. VOX POP Boys, Take Notice Dear Editor: Is common courtesy old-fashioned? overheard a student state that he didn' remove his hat in the halls because i was an old-fashioned custom. From the number of unbared heads il the halls during school hours and at tht games, it seems that many others hav' the same idea. Regardless of what these boys think I believe that they should have enougl respect for their school to remove thei hats. A penalty should be invoked 01 those who persist in this discourtesy. Mary Latus. Are You Guilty? Dear Editor: Why are people so destructive an: unconsiderate at school dances? At nearly every dance, some ul: thoughtful person pulls trimming down and soon the entire room is bare Surely they must know decorations cos money and it takes pains and time tt put them up. Due to this occurence some schools have had to go without decorated ballrooms for a time. W1 wouldn't want that. Why don't we all think of what we'n doing, and realize the results beforl destroying property? , Doris Jean Coleman. Pol.

Miss Dorothy Kellogg Visits O.S.U. Broadcasting Station While visiting station WOSU, the Ohio State University broadcasting sta- tion, Miss Dorothy Kellogg heard sev- eral transcriptions that were made by the R C A playback system. Several conferences, in which the time spent on preparing programs, how scrips are written, and how rehearsals were discussed, were attended by Miss Kel- logg. A large school broadcasting station, under the supervision of Miss Fleming, dramatics teacher at South high school was viewed with great admiration by Woodward's dramatics teacher. Students at South high school won a gold microphone last September as a prize for the best nation-wide program. To celebrate St. Patrick's day, the cafeteria sold special dishes during both lunch hours today. Will Be Presented To Pupils Mrs. Marie Ersig effort to discover the opinion In an of the Woodward student body, the Tattler staff will conduct a poll next Tuesday on the subject Should the United States form an alliance with England?

Auld Lang Syne HIRTY four days from today the dance will be held which will climax all the dances ever attended by Woodward seniors. For the last time, on that date, these upperclassmen will have the chance to attend a class dance as members of Woodward high school. We all know what good times we have at these affairs, and in addition to that we have the years and years of pleasant memories which follow. Dancing classes will begin soon. Put your signa- ture ou a petition now! Wasted Time And Effort SUALLY, the day a dance is to occur, all the students connected with the organization spon- soring the affair spend the entire day in deco- rating the gym. For these occasions they incoven- ience both themselves and their teachers so that they may be certain of having a gay, appropriate background. Taking these facts into consideration, let us, in the future, think twice before we recklessly begin destroying the results of all those hours of hard work. This conduct on the part of those attending would seem to indicate that they prefer not to have decorations. and perhaps in the future, as a result of these destructive actions, clubs giving dances will not bother to decorate. Well, we asked for it! Hats Off--- Ladies Passing By EY fellows, how about those hats? Can't we keep them off while inside the building even if this is a public building? In case we didn't know it, it's a matter of courte- sy. In case we did know it, we're not children any more. We're not weaklings either. Let's act like men instead of mice.

See that a handsome man chooses a seat by you. Why should we study especially hard for a few days? Cards come out in about four weeks. What is the first thing we all do when we get up in the early morning? See what male the mailman has brought us. Why should one make a habit of arriving to school on time? To see how many handsome boys we can meet in the halls. Why did the old-fashioned girl blush when the boyfriend held her hand? Her mother was sitting between them. Why do all you Woodwardites purchase a Tattler each Friday? To see if your name is on this tantalizing page. Monickers Mabel translated from Latin means lovable. Oh for a girl named Mabel! Girls! If you are named Margaret, you will live a life of luxury. The Latin version of Margaret is pearl. Vincent'f and Victor mean conquerors! Beware of these lads. The soft sounding name of Florence designates flourishing activity, while Stella is translated as star. This person will have a shining career and go, high into society. From the word favor, the name Grace is born. Belle is a symbol of beauty, soft and alluring. A modern name Rufus means red-haired, while August, when translated into English, signifies ven- erable. This lad had better watch his step. Alma is derived from the ancient language word of fostering. .Flashes From Friends Freshman Year When I first went to see her I showed a timid heart, And though the lights were dim, We sat this far apart.

Coach Leo Robie has picked the fol- owing nine boys as the best candidates br the pitching position on the basis lf their showing in the gym, Jake Pryz- vysz, Jack McKensie, Chuck McFarland lill Haffelder, Lawrence Eurenius,Carl Schulz, Zig Kaminski, John Grabinski, frank Knakiewicz, and John Dmytryka. These boys seemto display better con- rol, but you can never tell what will nappen, when they're pitching to a bat- er, stated Robie. The team will carry ive moundsmen throughout the season. Swede Widlund, Bob Myneder, Al iempski, Mike Kaczorowski, Ed Ritter, .nd Bill Moores, veteran of last season's quad, are the candidates for the catch- ng job. Coach Robie will have three nen to handle the receiving duties. The infielders and outfielders will not vractice until it is possible to go out in the diamond. Class Reaps Profits The program given by the sophomore :lass featuring Kessler, the magician, netted the class 33270. These profits will be used for decora- ions for the Sophrolic, annual soph- jmore dance, April 14. Inquiring Reporter should receive the Michigan P1vque? This question was asked by the inquir- ing reporter. The Michigan Plaque is the highest athletic award and is presented to the student who displays good sportsman- ship and is prominent in the various sports. Bill Haffelder should receive the award. His all around participation in the various sports during his four years has entitled him to the honor. Virginia Carpenter I think Ziggy Kaminski's active abil- ity as an athlete, and his interest in the various sports puts him up as the most likely candidate to receive the plaque. Art Pieron The only one who has high grades and has participated in the various sports enough to deserve the award is Bill Haffelderf' Ray Kranz I think Ziggy Kaminski has been the spark plug of all the various teams representing Woodward. This should entitle him to the award. Loretta Ignatowski Bill Haffelder should receive the Michigan Plaque because of his good sportsmanship, and all around activity in the various phases of sports. Bill Miles. Girls' Intra-Mural Volleyball Tournament Begins Monday The oncoming spring season ushers in the volleyball tournament which begins Monday, March 27. Names of the teams which are to participate in this spring tournament are to be in the gym office by 2:30 to- day. Practice for these teams, and for all girls expecting to take part in this sport, will be held after school Thurs- day, March 23 for Freshmen and on Fri- day, March 24 for the upper classmen. Few changes being made in the vol- leyball rules for this year are: 1-A player may hit the ball twice in successiong 2--Fifteen minute halves will be played with Eve minutes between halves, 3--The maximum number of players is twelve, minimum, seven. It is important that all the girls who are not on teams but who wish to play in the tournament report to the gym Thursday or Friday after school. Sportsmanship Trophy The Sportsmanship Trophy, which was to be awarded to the school dis- playing the best sportsmanship at the athletic contests, has not been pre- sented to any school this year. This was due to the lack of interest shown by the principals and other men who were to judge the actions of the students at the games. The sportsmanship trophy idea will probably be abandoned. Junior Rings Are Ordered Leave it to the girls! From the total of 173 junior class rings which have been ordered, 109 orders have been placed by girls. As there are 399 members of the junior class, the 173 orders constitutes only about forty-three per cent of the class. For those who haven't yet signified their intention of purchasing a ring, orders may be placed with the ring committee after spring vacation. lCATCHER MooREs IS VERSATILE LAD Good-Looking Senior Toils At Backstop For Coach Leo Robie's Squad Do you know how it feels to hold a target for a hard ball traveling about 90 miles an hour? Ask Bill Moores about it. This versatile senior is the veteran catcher of the baseball squad. Possessing brown hair and hazel eyes, Bill combines 5 feet, 8 inches into his physical being. Born in Toledo, January 28, 1921, he has seen eighteen summers in our grow- ing metropolis. A trip to New York and Canada composes his travels. Bill is a member of the Forum club. His inten- tion is to attend Toledo University after leaving Woodward. Printing heads his favorite study, while English is on the other side of the fence. Two letters acknowledge this ath- lete's participation in sport competition with this year's letter making it three. In athletics. baseball is tops with Bill, while ice skating takes up his liesure time during the winter months. To play professional baseball is his ambition. Eating ice cream is my pastime, shyly remarked this brown haired youth. As for the fems, girls disagree with Bill as spinach does with me. Bill played at the backstop post with the Blade Pilots in the Blade league be- fore joining Woodward's diamond ros- ter. Last year he slapped the apple lor a .300 average and caught most of the Woodward games without a mishap. Considering this imposing record, we can look forward to a good showing at Bill's post this season.

Three All-Opponent Teams Selected By Sports Staff Along with the termination of the basketball season comes the usual se- lection of a-ll-opponent teams selected by the Tattler sports department. De- cided partiality would undoubtedly be shown if Woodward players were in- cluded in the select groups, so we are omitting the Bear Cagers. Here are our selections: First Team Bennett, DeVilbiss Forward Stewart, Libbey Forward Dore, Central Center Adams, Central Guard Bode, Waite Guard Second Team Lepiarz, Waite Forward Strugarek, Central Forward Berry, Libbey Center Huston, Libbey Guard Witte, Macomber Guard - Third Team Irvine, DeVilbiss Forward Dexter, Waite Forward Kanney, DeVilbiss Center Jones, Scott Guard Allen, Macomber Guard TRACK CANDIDATES PRACTICE NIGHTLY Coach Fetters Wants Frosh, Sophomores To Report, 69 Thinclads Out A total of 69 boys, composed of 14 freshmen, 20 sophomores, six juniors, and 29 seniors, practice nightly, running around the halls on the third floor. There should be atleast twice as many candidates out, states Coach Bill Fet- ters, with many more freshmen and sophomores. Any boy that is capable of walking and who comes out in his first year, should be a good track man in his third or fourth year if he has perse- verancef' The Bear thinclads are scheduled to meet Adrian on the third of May, and a possibility of a triangle meet at Fre- mont on April 22, with Woodward, De- Vilbiss, and hosts participating. Fetters is also trying to book a dual meet with Oak Harbor or Elmore on the twenty- ninth of the same month. Members returning from last year's squad are Harvey Cook, Merle Romer, Herville Haynes, Louis Rabideau, Bill Radzko, Joe Jaines, Elwin Willick, Otis Perry, Earl Ford,Jim Brubaker, Ted Nowak, and Frank Hogg. Jack Tolford, George Jaschke, and Jim Wells were members of the cross country team in the fall. The team will be composed of 25 or 30 players who will enter thirteen events. One man can compete in a total of four events, either three track and one field, or four field contests, in any one meet. Michael Nslodka has been chosen track manager. On Friday, April 14, one week before the opening league meet with the Libbey tracksters, Coach Fetters will hold an inter-class contest on the Bears' oval. Following the tour iament, on May 23, he will hold a like contest. The Adrian meet will be held away from home. Latin Limp, Fasces Skate, Will Be Held Fri., March 24 The Latin Limp, annual Fasces club skate, will be held at Memorial Hall Friday, March 24. Emma Koscis is chair- man of the committee arranging the affair, assisting her are Dorothy Schin- del and Virginia Wymer. To illustrate her talk on Rome at the last Fasces club meeting, Miss Eula Anderson, of the Toledo Art Museum, brought slides which were shown on the screen in Clyde Van Tassel's room. The pictures depicted Roman styles of dress, homes, customs and public build- .ngs. Important Rules Of School Issued By Student Council Mainly for the benefit of the new teachers who joined Woodward's faculty and also for teachers who have forgot- ten important rulings of the school, the Student Council issues the following rules: 1. Only one person is allowed on a hall permit. 2. Pupils are not to use conference hour cards for hall permits, but must stay in rooms to which they go for meetings or make-up work. 3. No one is permitted to open lock- ers during class periods including third hour. 4. No one is supposed to run in the school building. 5. Students are not permitted to eat except during the lunch periods. These are five important rules of the school which the teachers are asked to enforce. With the cooperation of the faculty, as well as that of the students, Woodward should become a model school. Pro Teams Play Here Two professional cage teams, the famed New York Celtics and Chuck Chuckovits Collegians, will play in Woodward's gym Tuesday evening.

Attach- ed to her are a variety ofmonickers in- cluding Carp, Virg, and Gin. Virginia shows partiality for the color green, while she would run a mile from a bowl of spinach. The Zets are honored to call this senior one of them, while the Fasces club are served by her as president. Her above-average grades during her high school years have also placed her on the roster of the Honor society. Shorthand hits the spct with Virginia, but the remainder of her sub- jects are taboo. She intends to enroll in Davis Business College next year. Without bowling, Virginia could vir- tually do nothing. When she is not busy collecting pictures of Nelson Eddy for Eddy Shapirol, she can usually be found knocking down the pins at the Audito- rium Bowling Alleys. Saturday night she will bowl in Class A in the city bowling tournament. She boasts a score of 224 for her higest game. When I went to see Nelson Eddy,' sighed Virginia, nhe came way above my expectations. He is as handsome in person as he is on the screen. But he's 'hitched' now. With her Ford by her side, Carp has traveled through Min- nesota, Cleveland, Chicago, and Niagara Falls. The Ford also comes in handy when it comes to going bowling on Mon- day nights, for Virginia is always willing to pile in as many girls as possible. All in all, she's O.K.

Art Klan To Show Movies Near the end of March, the Art Klan, under the direction of Miss June An- derson, will show movies of etchings to Art Klan members, and to any other students interested in art. In conjunction with the films, the advanced art class will hold an exhibit of etchings in the showcases. Fred Saba is president of the Art VOX POP Too True To all Crabs : While scanning through last week'x Tattler, my eyes fell upon a quite interesting poem in the column Flashes From Friends. In the course of the poem was the student's reaction to hi: school paper. They classified it a: rotten, and as peppy as a cemeterg lot. ' Yet, when the paper failed tt come out on time, or a student missec his copy, his complaint could be easilj heard for miles around. That bit of poetry neatly summed uj the situation that is evident here Tattler members are constantly receiv ing complaints about the supposed in ferior quality of our weekly production Still, when the paper failsto be distrih uted seventh hour, these same individ uals clamor for their copy. Perhaps ifthey were better acquaintec with the numerable handicaps that wi are subject to, they would think differ ently on the matter. Do you know tha the Tattler is one ofthe two city paper: that is edited weeklyg that it is hand-se and printed in our own shopg that Tattle office deficiencies such as the lack o typewriters and working space add ti our tremendous burden??? This doesn't mean that we aren't opei for suggestions. On the contrary, we ari eager to receive constructive criticism but not destructive criticisms. Just asi yourself the question, Could I do a well?, before making your remark.

As far as dirty halls are concerned, you don't have to worry about them any morefi said James Pollock. ' Such comments were heard all over the building after the noon movies were inaugurated at the question of iirty halls, and noise. The second day run was attended by 974 students, while the following day S98 students were present. Teachers on patrol, which includes Joe Dence, Paul Lankenau, James Pollock, have reported the halls in much better condition, but complaints have poured in about the dirt in the auditorium.

Quentin Jervis's orchestra will furnish the sea i chanties and sailors' hornpipes. JUNIORS TO PRESENT THREE-ACT COMEDY, SPRING DANCE, MAR. 30 ....i..1 -an Students Declare 'No' To Alliance To England 980 Woodwardites declared that we should not form an alliance with Great Britain, while 876 were of the belief that we should in the poll held last Tuesday in the homeroom classes. Teachers selected the negative side by a majority of 27-21. In fact it seemed that no's dominated throughout the day. Freshies crawled out from under their green hideouts and indignantly cried, Noi to the tune of 428-352. Sophomores were the only optimists to see an advantage in an alliance with John Bull, and nominated the affirma- tive side by 261-211 edge. Perhaps the sophisticated sophs were influenced by the cosmopolitan idea oftoday's mod- ern young sophisticates. By a 196-148 vote in favor of not forming the alliance, the juniors forgot their bashfulness in expressing their opinion. Conforming with the opinion of the students, the seniors went the way of all good Woodwardites and negated the alliance by a 145-115 vote. Art Klan To Sponsor Movies To Further Interest In Art In an effort to further the interest in art and explain the etchings which are to appear in the display case next week, two films, The Etchers' Art and Dry Points, will be shown by the Art Klan in the auditorium, Tuesday, March 28.

Shemas, Marilyn GellHave Major Roles, Harley Lucas Directs As its last sooial event of the year, the junior class will present Spring Dance, a three-act comedy, Thursday, March 30, at 8 p.m. The second produc- tion under the auspices of the Little Theatre Guild, the play has been under the supervision of Miss Dorothy Kel- logg, club adviser, and Harley Lucas, student director. Taking the major role of Alex Ben- son, vivacious college girl, is Marilyn Gell, while that of Sam Thatcher, an idealistic college youth, is being por- trayed by Nick Shemas. Lively Plot Throughout the play, Alex Benson is attempting to convince Thatcher to attend the Spring Dance with her, thereby suppressing his desires to travel to Russia, a great country, with the Lippincot, his sarcastic, camera-clicking friend, enacted by Duane Donavon. Alex's college chums who invent devices to futher her scheme, and who engage in fiirtations of their own, are Kate McKin, played by Sylvia Gott- fried, Mady Platt, Betty Stadler, Sally Prescott, Irene Plicinski, Frances Fenn, Bertha Hascal, Miss Ritchie, Betty Vershun, and Mildred, Carol Brown. The strong supporting cast of men includes John Hatton, portrayed by Louis Emm, Walter Beckett, Lawrence Bell, Doc Boyd, John McMahon, and Buck Buchanan, Dave Baz. Given on both the stage and in the cinema, this production has been heralded for its clever dialogue and skittishly collegiate atmosphere. Miss Imogene Lapp Explains Styles To Home Ec.

The Michigan Plaque N RECOGNITION DAY, some deserving senior will be awarded the highest possible athletic honor, the Michigan Plaque. The recipient must have led the field in cle-an sportsmanship, athletic ability, and general participation in the various phases of sports. Therefore, athletes of the future, guide yourself toward the far horizon of seniorship where lies the Michigan plaque. Steer yourselves by good rules of conduct on the field of play, for the plaque, the highest symbol of athletic achievement, is present- ed only to the best. We're Improving S A RESULT of student demands, several good speakers have appeared at Woodward during the past three weeks, and a few more are scheduled for the near future. Pleasing to note is the fact that these lecturers have been procured because pupils have asked for good speakers. Gratifying, too, are the large atten- tive audiences which have attended these educa- tional programs. These facts reveal the increasing interest of Woodward students in worthwhile lectures. Wood- wardites are to be commended for this interest. Lunch Hour Movies O CLEAR the congested halls during lunch hour, C. C. LaRue innovated the lunch hour movie. This consists of showing a different chapter of an exciting serial every day. Not only has this cleared the halls, but it has been the chance of the pupils to reveal their intelligence and good common sense. With little or no supervision, the students have been very quiet and attentive.The occasional wise- crakers have been rebuked by cold looks or by a few curt shut up's. This proves that Woodwardites take their responsibilities seriously. On Our Hit Parade UR appreciation, this week, we give to that efficient manager of cafeteria service, Mrs. Cecil Ashbroock. Every school day through a period of nine months, she plans a menu that is healthful, attractive, appetizing, and economical. What a job it must be to think of daily meals that will be pleasing to more than 500 palates! In addition to executing her cafeteria duties so competenly, she takes charge of refreshments for some of the affairs sponsored by various Woodward organizations. Unquestionably, she adds much to making our school life a happy. PRINCIPAL POINTS Cf G .X During the past few years a great num- , ber of our young men, some graduates and f ,-., B some not, have joined the various service 5 - we 1-, organizations of our government. Perhaps 1 ' , some of you who read these lines will not i . 1 Q agree but in times such as we are experi- ix A A encing just now these services seem very 1 ' important not only from the viewpoint of the boys but also from that of our govern- ment. Of course, any service that is good for our young men is good for our nation, but the enlistments in the Navy, the Marine Corps, the Citizens Military Training Corps, and the Citizens Conservation Corps, are especially beneficial to us as a whole. For instance, when a young man enlists in the Navy there is a double obligation.The youth is obligated to serve faithfully and intelligently for a term ofyears and in case of war will risk his life in the service. On the other hand the government assumes the obligation ofpreserving the health of the enlisted man, of further- ing his education and training so that at the end of his period of service he will go back with the ability through a trade to earn a living. The C.C.C. organization from a very humble origin of economic necessity is beginning to assume respon- sibility for the furthering of the education of its enrollees as well as the responsibility for his health, food, and clothing. Whether we like it or not this organization is probably with us to stay. We are finding that the busy work which was undertaken in the matter of conservation is really a very import- ant work in the preservation of our natural resources. There is, of course, no direct money return from this branch of the service and so far is absolutely non- militaristic. Some of the best attributes of these branches of the service are the hand work that is required of the men and the splended discipline they undergo. Without exception the boys who have been back either at the end of enlistment or on vacation have shown marked improvement. Perhaps in the future some of our youth unemploymentproblems can be solved through service to Uncle Sam. Ah---Spring! The Tattler takes you on a visit with Mother Nature. Spring is in the air.

Freshman Hygiene Pupil Discourages Vandalism The following letter was turned in by Roe Porter, freshman, in the hygiene class of Don Fisher: There should be no doubt in the minds of anyone as to the need of handwash- ing facilities in the restroom of Wood- ward High. The manner concerning the care of hands, taught in the home, elementary schools, and high school, certainly can- not be carried out if there is no way of doing so. There is a great need for these sup- plies in Woodward, but vandalism in the school has made it practically im- possible. This demolishing of school property has not been confined to one place, it has been going on all over the buildingg There is seldom a way of checking the vandals, but strict measures should be taken to end their playful antics and to obtain the articles so badly needed for the good of all.

Meek, athletic director, upon releasing his financial report to date for publica- tion in the Tattler. The loyal athletic enthusiasm 'of the student body and the increased activi- ties ticket sales of last year have greatly contributed to the reduction of the debt which hangs like a sinister cloud over Woodward's portals. The report issued includes the cost of the winter sports, football and basket- ball. The disbursements listed under these sports include doctor bills, equip- ment, and medical supplies. The fee paid to referee ofiicials form a large portion of the expense. A fee of S45 is paid tothe officials ofeach city foot- ball game while S520 is paid to basket- ball officials. The estimated cost of the summer sports will probably exceed the 100 dollar mark and will be added to the remaining debt. balance. A considerable amount of the carni- val receipts will be used in payment on the final debt. Following is the financial statement prepared by Mr. Meek: Receipts fSept.-March 21, 19391 84632.98 Disbursements 3755.19 Cash on hand, March 21 S 877.79 Debt on March 21 82014.63 Cash 877.79 Debts in excess of cash 51136.84 Printers Hold Amerk Leadg 3 Teams Tie In Senior Loop Emerging victorious in their first four handball encounters, the Hashy Print Shop combine has grasped a slight hold on the American league lead for the present. Trailing the Printers are the Aviators and the Pencil Pushers lacking one win apiece to tie the leaders. In the National race the Polish Lits, Polish Knights and' the Forum are deadlocked in the struggle for the top spot. Scrambling for first place in the table tennis tournament are six teams in the American league with even records: Print Shop, Aviation, Cleveland A.C., Fighting Cubs, General Shop, Pencil Pushers. Leading the Nationals is the Renaissance team with four victories. Future Gridders Must Wait Until Autumn For Practice Spring is in the air! But Woodward gridders will not have the beneht of spring practice,due to the fact that the Bears are sadly lacking a football men- tor at present. A rule of the Ohio State high school football conference allows the young gridders to hold four consecutive weeks of grid practice in the spring, with fall sessions beginning early in September. Woodward will take the alternative of- fered and start the autumn play on August 20. A new coach, to take the place of Art Smith, who turned in his resignation following last season's play, will proba- bly be known by the first of May. THE WOODWARD TATTLER HM.

PLAY SUCCESS Junior Miss Reveals Belief That Play Will Be Among Best I think the junior class play will be among the best ever produced at Wood- ward, due to the ability, earnestness, and experience of the cast, and the excellentdirection of both the faculty and student directors, stated Marilyn Dorothy Gall, popularjunior miss, upon being interviewed. It was an anxious father who paced the maternity ward waiting for the blessed event which turned out, on July 24, 1922, to be Marilyn. Since then. Marilyn's chiefambitions have revolved around her natural gift for acting. When she is graduated from Woodward, she plans to further her study of dram- atics in Detroit, from whence she hopes to have an opportunity to appear on the legitimate stage. Besides having won the leads in both the sophomore and junior class plays, Marilyn has portrayed the major part in the Board of Education radio programs since their beginning last fall. One of her outside interests includes member- ship in the Opportunity Players, a To- ledo dramatic organization. My Heart Belongs to Daddy, coyly stated Marilyn when probed about her current heart throbs. 1She thinks she's fooling us!! We know.j In one breath she divulged her love of chop suey and her opposite emotion as readily applied to history. When questioned about hobbies, Marilyn, who is characterized by her perfect diction and posture, declared that she has none, unless listening to Orson Welles' radio programs can be classified as such. With Marilyn as chairman of the junior play committe and leading lady of 'Spring Dance, we can look for- ward to a successful event.

PROF. S. HUEBNER SPEAKS AT FORUM Authority Reveals Inside On Social Security Insurance To understand the government secur ity plans, the public must first be clear on two concepts, according to Professor S. Huebner's Forum address, Federal Government Security Plans, last Sat' urday. The first of these is that social security is not social insurance, in so' cial security there is no contract, and it tries to meet the problems of the masses. The second concept is that pri- vate insurance is not inconsequential because of social security. Social security,'l declared the insur- ance professor, is no reflection on pri- vate insurancef' In comparing the two, the authority brought out these differ- ences: 1. Social insurance is compulsory, 2. Under private insurance a man of65 may continue to work, but under the social security plan, the worker must retire as soon as his pension begins. The speaker listed several objections to the security plans. First of all, he feels that the plan may be extended to include too many people. Secondly, the age limit of the old age insurance plan may be reduced to 60 years, which would increase expenses. Finally, the total expenditure required to success- fully execute the plan will amount to more than six billion dollars. In conclusion, the insurance expert said, The social security plan is here for good, and any fight which might have been made against it is lost. Therefore, what I plead for is watchful- ness of the law. In The Sportlight Averill?? No. DiMaggio?? No. It's just Bill Haffelder, that slugging center- fielder of whom big things are expected this season by Coach Leo Robie. Last year, Bill led his team in batting with a .365 average, including many extra- base hits. This senior lad has established quite a sports record during his four years at Woodward. He has played four years of basketball, three seasons of football, two of baseball, and one year of track. Seven letters comprise his collection while he anticipates two more before graduation. Because of his fine record, Bill stands a fine chance of receiving the Michigan Placque, awarded annual- ly to the most deserving athlete. Knobby, as he is generally known by his friends, has a most unusual habit of collecting broken hearts--and this handsome scholar has damaged plenty of them here. However, he declares M. J. S. to be his One and only. A member of the Electrical society, Bill's favorite study is electricity while the underdog is modern history.

Ratcliffe in his address, Amer- ica, Britain, and the Far East, before the Civic Forum, Monday, March 28, brought out the following points: One half of the whole human family is affected by the unrest in the far East. vm: , Thirty years have seen a wide revo lution which will change the entire course of history and the character of civilization. l 1 l Japan's action in China is accounted for by their expansion policy, by their deep rooted conviction that they must civilize and conquer China, and by their fight against Communism in China. There is an extreme amount of care on the part of Russia and Japan to min- imize the friction between them. tr wr In Japan wants to make heavy strokes as much as possible during the present year in the face of European affairs. In the meantime, the Chinese resistance persists. ' li X t Sentiment in England and the Unit ed States is on the side of China, but regardless, Japan is able to continue the war because she gets supplies from them. lr l I The United states and Great Britain must cooperate in a friendly way in the Far East. if I l The United States is the single power in relation to the Pacific ocean--- the ocean ot' the future, ll li I Missionaries, doctors, and social workers who have stood at their posts during this upheaval are redeeming the record of the West. I U 0 In answer to the question, What comes next for Gerrnany?, Mr. Rat- cliffe quoted the Chinese proverb, He who rides on a tiger can never dismount.

A Steeple Jack N AGILE steeplejack, heavily laden with tools, is climbing up the framework of a towering bridge. Three fourths ofthe way to the top,'he halts to rest for a few moments. After this brief relaxation, the Workman glances up to his goal, takes a quick stock of the distance climbed and what remains to be covered. Then he nimbly scrambles to the top. Students of Woodward, burdened with knowledge in the form of facts and figures, are striving to reach the completion of a successful year. Three quar- ters of school work are nearly over. Spring vacation brings promise of a short breathing spell, and grade cards' offer an opportunity to measure what has been achieved and what may be achieved. After his short rest, the steeple jack quickly reached the top of the bridge. Will Woodwardites use spring vacation profitably and be urged to suc- cess during the remainder of the year? Help The Needy--- LTHOUGH there are some who have not felt the effects of the depression, the fact remains that those who were in straitened circum- stances before l929 were rendered practically help- less in the jobless days that followed. People who, prior to that time, were able to make ends meet found themselves stranded with- out food or work. In many cases sickness came, and these unfortunates had no funds to provide themselves with hospital care. Happily we are able to say that not every case ended in disasterg for many of these people turned to the Community Chest for aid---aid which was given readily and willingly. Then and today, this worthwhile organization carries on this crusade of helping the needy. They contribute to hospitals, help destitute families, give funds to the newsboys, to health camps, and to num- erous other public institutions. During the month of April, the Community Chest drive will be going on in Toledo. Let all of us in Woodward make a solemn vow to contribute a sum, no matter how small, to help the less fortunate in our nation. Love On A Merry-Go-Round Woe and behold, why are those tears lurking in the deep, hazel eyes of Alice Nowinski at the prospect of spring vacation? Could it be the thought of leaving Eddie Gascorowski? Me, oh my, what is this thing called love that is taking its toll around Woodward.

Evie's dream man is tall, dark, and polite Inot too politel and he must be a good dancer. Among her outside interests are drnrnatics, the Opportunity Players, volleyball, col- lecting good poetry and funny car- toons, and dancing. People who wish to stay in her good graces must never sneak up and tickle her. That's her one pet peeve. Characteristic of Evelyn is her abundance of everlasting energy and high spirits. Her motto is appropriately stated: In general, I Love Life.

The contest closes April 15, 1939. Woodward Student Runs Charlotte Cosner, Woodward junior, ran for the cityj-wide presidency of the Toledo Junior Red Cross association. Virginia Wymer of Mrs. Dorothy Matheny's oral expression class was MERITORIOUS PLAY Students Depict Characters Convincingly, Maturely, Efficiently Last night,in two hours' time,tnirteen juniors exhibited the product of six weeks' daily hard work, as they upheld the traditions of previous junior classes by presenting an outstanding produuc- in the form of tSpring Dance. Marilyn Gell and Nick Shemas, who portrayed the leads, lived up to expec- tatio is by rising to the occasion with excellent performances. The show was fall Marilyn's'l in several places, and in those sequence, she handled her lines expertly. Louis Emm, as UI-lat , and Duane Donovan,as the Lippincott , delighted the audience by displaying a true dra- matic flair, and their performances add- ed zest and quaintness to the program, helping to keep it natural and unstilted. Lawrence Bell, as Professor Beckett, was mature, efficient, and convincing. As the authorized, commedienne of the house, Betty Stadler stole a good many seconds of the show, lrene Plicinskfs portrayal of Sally Prescott won for her applause and comment. Only one talented could enact the dif- ficult role which was lrene's, and the manner in which she managed it was, indeed, satisfactory. Bertha l-lascal and Sylvia Gottfried added charm. Their performances were sincere, and their work, that of veter- ans. Betty Vershum, Carol Brown, John McMahon, and David Baz, in lesser roles, were no less effective, and helped to bring laughs and sincerity into the production. Prevalant illness among the cast members hindered the progress of the play from time to time, and to this can be blamed any part of the performance which wasnlt as smooth as it might have been. To Harley Lucas, senior, who was student director and general stage man- ager, do we owe a vote of thanks, and to Miss Dorothy Kellogg, who worked tirelessly and patiently, we can but give a mental bouquet of orchids.

WNWW49 X umm --If Sophs Extend Appreciation HE SOPHOMORE class wishes to extend 1ts appreciation to the following teachers for as- sisting the differentcommittees with the plans for the Sophrolic: A.R. Bitter and his class and Joy Morhardt for the lighting fixturesg Miss June An- derson and Mrs. Carolyn Hatfield for advising stu- dents in decoration,Hugh Montgomery and his class- es for printing tickets and programs, S. B. Crouse for constructing fences, O. M. Thompson for the posters and Mrs. Marie Ersig and the newswriting classes for publicity. Special thanks is also given to Miss Grace Cronk and C. M. Meek, class advisers,for their helpful guidance. Without the aid and cooperation of these teachers and their classes the success of the Sophrolxc would not have been possible. Gayety Nite Solicitors HEN SOLICITING for Gayety Nite, we must remember to be courteous and mannerlyg for the impression we leave of ourselves is the impression we leave of our school in the minds of those whom we solicit. When we volunteer to solicit for Gayety Nite, we should do it with the intention of obtaining rner- chandise, not with the idea of escaping a day of school. Many Thanks HAT would a dance be without an orchestra or decorations? What would a play be with- out scenery? What would Woodward do if it lacked persons who willingly serve on commit- tees, and persons who work tirelessly and patiently in order to put our school activities over? To these people, this editorial of thanks is direct- ed to show them how fully their work is appreciated by everyone connected with Woodward High Shcool. A Plea gg AVE you any old shoes, trousers, dresses, skirts, blouses, or any other form of cloth- ing laying around home that are 'decent enough for a person to wear to school?,' is the plea being uttered from the hearts of many children who can't attend school because of the lack ofsuffi- cient clothing. Any article of clothing that.you may have will be willingly and eagerly accepted by Miss Grace Cronk, welfare director in Woodward. Our Hats Go Off N GENERAL, organizations and individuals hold activities to collect money for their own benefit and not for the improvement of Woodward. On the other hand, there are some who are continually sopnsoring activities to collect money for the improvement of our school. To William Rohr, who sponsored the movie given March 24, and who will sponsor the one to be given in May, our hats go off, for with the money that he earns, new band instruments will be purchased. We Welcome The Opportunity E,AS members of the sophomore journalism class, wish to thank the members of the Tattler staff for giving us this opportunity to publish the school paper. Our thanks goes to them, also, for this chance to experience first hand, the work of issuing the Tattler. t. Wanted: Your autograph on a senior prom peti- ion.

The individual scores are as follows: FROM WAITE, Rossford proved an easy mark for two games, when they were forced to take the Bear's two lowest scores to replace their absent men. Despite this advantage the Bears dopped the second game by twenty pins. A sky total of 564 was smashed ont by Kime, Jr. after he had opened with a pretty 223.

A few masculine students have taken up the fad of wearing their shirt-tails out. Here's a new one---ifyou. hold a guinea pig by its tail, its eyes will drop out. Primary elections of different state officials are being conduct ed by Miss Louise Tippett's American government classes. Meyer Davis, practice teacher from Michigan University, is teaching Miss Dorothy Kellogg's eighth hour class for three weeks. Someone thinks a lot of Arthur Regi- nald.

Besides acting as chairman of the Sophrolic and maintaining a good scho- lastic record, she is on the executive committee of the sophomore class, and is a member of the Spanish club and of the Pei-is.

Mrs. Katherine Schuler and Joseph Dence were in charge of the elections while Miss Mabel Rutan's history class- es counted the votes. William Raymond Succumbs As Result Of Eye Operation William Raymond, Woodward custo- dian, succumbed yesterday at 2:30 P.M. in Flower hospital, as a result of an operation for a cataract removal which took place on April 8. Death was caused directly by the weakened condition of his heart. His last rites will be perfomed tomor- row at 2:30 p.m. in the Pierstoff Mortu- ary. Burial will follow in Toledo Memo- rial Park. Mr. Raymond, affectionately known as Pop by all Woodwardites, served as custodian in Woodward for more than fourteen years, in which time he made many staunch friends. Art Students Make Posters Mrs. Carolyn Hatfield's second year art class has recently finished making posters decorated with material, such asyarn, cloth, and wood. Some of these will be used for Gayety-Nite advertising. Students are now making cartoons and caricatures. The humor of some of these artists is amazing. Senior Prom Tonite Verne Kramer Noted Author Will Address Seniors, Faculty Next Week Louis Adamic, noted author, will speak to Woodward seniors and faculty members in the auditorium on April 26 or 27. He is traveling throughout the United States to make a survey for his new book, A Nation of Nations. The book will concern the problems of immi- grants who have come here during the last century, their children and grand- children. To make this survey, Mr. Adamic has issued a questionnaire broadside. The faculty and some stu- dents were given this broadside to an- swer questions concerning the people of their own nationality. One of his best novels, The Native's Return, was presented to the library by the Zetalethean Literary society. The engagement of Mr. Adamic was made through the efiorts of Mrs. Doro- thy Matheny. Correction In the grade card story last week Haul Schimmel and Dave Sliwinski were listed as having 3 A's and 2 B's instead of4 A's and 1 B.

Swing music was played by the dancing class orchestra. Verne Kramer, Guest To Lead March The senior class of 1939 will present the eleventh annual Woodward Senior Prom tonight in the Trianon Ballroom with Red Burns and his orchestra fur' nishing music from9 p. m. till midnight' Verne Kramer, president of the class' and his guest, Dora Jackman, will lead the grand march followed by committee and cabinet members. Working as co-chairmen of the com- mittee are Jeanette Levine and Fred Saba. Various members of the commit- tee were divided into the following groups: publicity, Jane Weeks and Frank Scottg invitations, Bonnie Jean Zirwes and Mary Ganzelg dancing classes, Manuel Zelles and Ernst Na- varre, petitions, Mary Jane Szymorow- ski. The programs and tickets were planned by the co-chairmen and made by Hugh Montgomery and his printers. Other class officers circulating peti- tions are vice-president, Loretta Igna- towskig secretary, Cloine Myersg treas- urer, James Brubakerg reporter, Will- iam Anspachg sergeant-at-arms, George Hope. Miss Amie Miller and R. K. Sheline, class deans, will chaperone the affair. Guests of honor include Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Bowsher, Mr. and Mrs. C. C. LaRue, Mr. and Mrs. Philo C.

School Principals, Athletic Directors To Hold Meeting Principals and all athletic directors of Toledo high schools will meet in the near future to discuss the problems of free passes to high school games. To date, the directors were asked to give free passes to business men, politi- cians, teachers, and parents of the varsity squads without charge. Because of the multitude of passes given away yearly a service charge of fifteen or twenty-five cents may be enforced. Woodward is not vexed with this free pass situation because of the lack of a stadium, but the more passes the other schools give away the less profit Wood- ward makes. Mrs. Rob't. Morris To Speak At Peri Educational Meeting In commemoration of the birthday of Shakespeare, Mrs. Robert Morris will speak on Shakespeare's Philosophy of Life at the annual Periclean educa- tional meeting, conference hour, Tues- day, April 25, in the auditorium.

U Faculty Advisers ...,........................ ..,...,.,,.....,,. 1 Mrs. Ma1'w Emi: lHugh Montgomery They Deserve Our Time And Attention! E WONDERh realize the hard work and long hours of ractice conne ow many students in Woodward P operetta or a play. If students could be made to understand how nearly professional the efforts of our most talented classmates are, surely more than a mere handful would come to witness the present- ations. Two major events have been placed upon the dra- matic calendar for the near future. The Thespian play, Smilin' Throughf' is the first scheduled, closely followed by the Glee Club's operetta, In Old Vienna. Every student should make it a special point to attend these events. By being present, we can wit- ness good entertainment, and at the same time en- courage the performers. Experience Is The Best Teacher LL THROUGH our lives we have and will oome in contact with rules and laws that we are expect- ed to obey. Rules that in the long run aid us, and simplify our lives. An incident recently occurred which illustrates more vividly than any other the importance of abid- ing by rulesg therefore, we shall use it as an illus- tration with the hope that other students may profit by this one unfortunate girl's experience. About to practice on the piano for a coming pro- gram, ajfreshman girl attempted to move the instru- ment so as to insure better lighting. In Woodward,it r is breaking a rule to move any auditorium furniture without the prescence of a faculty member. Either because she was in ignorance of this rule or because she totally disregarded it, the girl moved the piano and as a result received a crushed Hnger when the piano slid back against the stage. She has perhaps lost the use of that finger forever, and yet it is believed that she had planned to make her livelihood by piano playing. We know that every violation ofa law doesn't result in such serious consequences, but as it isn't within our power to discern which ones will and those that will not end tragically, we will profit much by obeying all rules, excluding none. We Get Along Without It Very Well O MATTER how much is said, it seems prac- tically impossible to cut down the noise in the hall. Students seem to have no sense of courtesy or manners. We realize that no amount of reprimanding will decrease the awful yelling in the halls. So we are appealing to the students who want to act like adults. Not until the students themselves Want to rebel against these clowns will a satisfac- tory situation be reached. How about an anti-noise campaign against all the vulgar yelling and loud voices? Q nf e 0 Woodward halls aren't race tracks. Please re. member this the next time you begin to speed. 8 3 i Don't forget to throw paper in cans provided for In Our Library Betsey's Napoleon by Jeanette Eaton is a colorful, delightful book, depicting the human side of the great emperor of France. In his exile to Helena in 1815, Napoleon visited the home of William Balcombe, where he became the close friend of Betsey Balcombe. Betsey teased him constantly, and was the only one of her house-hold who thought of him as a human being and an equal. The two pals had great fun together, and he was her adviser in matters from beaux to horse races. In 1818, when Betsey left for England, she was very sorry to leave her friend. The book gives a revealing picture of Napoleon and in many places is dramatic and tense. Miss Eaton's natural talent and honest research, plus the lovely illus- trations make this narrative a joy to its readers. 1 1 u For air-minded boys, I Wanted Wings, autoblog' raphy, by Beirne Lay, Jr., gives an exciting picture of the adventures of an active, young aviator. Upon leaving Yale in 1931, Lay felt the flying urge coming on, and became a trained fiying cadet. In 1933, he was second lieutenant in the air corps and later served ac- tive duty in a bombardment squadron. While flying he experienced the thrills, laughs, fears, and tragedy connected with it, and learned whatit meant to crash. I Wanted Wings was written in 1936, at the end of his active duty. The story is vivid, alive, and com- pelling as well as depicting truthfully the life of an aviator. o e n Nexhmie Zaimi, author of Daughter of the Eagle, is the only Albanian girl ever to come to America alone. Her story tells of her long struggle and deter- mination to come to this country, and obtain a higher education. She tells of her childhood and unhappy girlhood in Albania, where tradition plays a large part. Miss Zaimi's description of the fierce Albanian winds which hurl men to the streets like rags and the ancient cus- toms which the women of the country are expected to observe faithfully, and against which she rebelled, add distinction and color to the book. The author is now a student at Wellesley college, and is only in her early twenties. Through The Keyhole We hear that: Dolores Sepanski's he art beats are keeping time with a certain well known maestro. Could it be Quen- tin Jervis, or is it? Louis Emm is picking the peaches from the fresh- man tree now. Evelyn Flamers seems to meet his approval. It Happened One Night The day was cold and dreary, and a pelting rain continued its ravages on the countryside. Trees were uprooted and homes were torn apart. No human be- ing dared to poke his nose outside that stormy night. As I watched from my window, I noted with terror stricken eyes, the rain-drenched figure of an old man, bent with age. His mutterings reached my ears. Those Woodward brats have done this to me. I've slipped on banana peels until I'm a nervous wreck, and my voice is so weak that only a shell remains. My legs are so waggly and double-jointed from being pulled out of place that I can put them in my pocket tif I had any pockets leftj. I am forced to crawl on my head, but I must be careful not to juggle my heart which has jumped into my mouth. Oh, for a cup ofhot whale-tail soup. My, how weak I am. Oh, Mr. Grodi, Mr. Grodi, beware of the huge aunt- eater thatbearethdown on thee, screameth I. Com- plete oblivion. Then a few resounding cracks that make me fear that lightning has struck me, for some- thingj. But alas, tis only my poor, disgusted mammy, trying to evade the dying pillow feathers, which I have loosened in my nightmare. Well, I can dream can't I, or can't I? fWonder what caused it?J Hold Tight The faithful Tattler staff has just uncovered the original manuscript of that popular song, Hold Tight. We find that the publishers have been making bad mistakes all along, and now it is our duty to reveal the TRUTH. We admit the rhyming is rather imper- fect, but the meaning is so much deeper and more beautiful. Here 'tisz Hold tight, hold tight, ditto, ditto, Brrrrrrrrrr, etc. Want some homework, teacher, Themes and exams, they're very nice. I like algebra, shorthand too, And those idioms in French. When I get home from school at night, I do my favorite thing, study! Hold tight,-'all over again. There, don't you like it much better. If we find the hem. We don't want to live in a dump.

The world is still turning, Hollandi still on the map, and Woodward is still producing master-minds, geniuses and such. We wonder what our student body has in mind i the way of eating. Goldfish and victrola records arid old stuE now. Aren't women queer? If it weren't for fads, they would die of boredom. You must try George Rohrer's recipe for pre- garing shrimp, sometime. Absolutely divine, my ears. The American Revolution, the Civil War, th Spanish-American War, and the World War werg each declared in the month of April. Come on, May Did you know that the Woodward Tattler is among the periodicals in the Toledo Public Library? Your secrets aren't only known to the school, but to the city as well. These people who state very definitely, during vacations, that they would rather be in school, ought to be shot, moidered, and strung up. Miss Virginia, Mark Street, is an example. Spring fever is no longer a sure sign of Spring. Some people have it all year around.

Girls, the Tattler staff has just received a speciall booklet from Professor Screwball, foremost author on girls' behavior in America, so put on the war paint, powder up the wig, throw on a bucketfull of perfume for the Professor will tell Woodward girls how to act on a date. N But first, there is the preliminary training. Standi in front of a mirror and start puckering. Ready? 1- 2-3 pucker. 1-2-3 pucker. If you can do this, you are, getting along ine. 1 Every poison must have its antidote so hurrfy down? to the nearest gym and take boxing and ju-jitsui lessons. Now, to learn the essentials of acting on a date. Remember, let your conscience be your guide. Just keep this in mind, use your eyes, use your lips, then use your fists. The well-bred girl doesn't eat much and when asked where to dine, suggests an inexpensive resort. She doesn't act like she knows it all and doesn't put on airs. But that is only the opinion of a few foolish women. Actually you should pick out the most expensive item on the menu, for your boy friend will feel flat- tered that you are well educated. Just take my advice, dears, and Pm sure that you wont have to worry about another date. They are such bores, anyhow. .LW .. ...sa ....., .a. ...41...... 1.11.

SPORT SHORTS By Fish And Hope Richard Durham of the Renaissance team recently was honored with the school intra-mural table tennis cham- pionship. ll K 8 Waitels gridders played Defiance in a practice game last Saturday on the Woodward field. The Indians' gridiron was flooded. 1 1 l lnclement weather forced the post- ponement of all athletic contests this week. The track team will run their meet with Libbey next Thursday be- sides participating in a triangle meet at Fremont tomorrow. The baseball team faces Scott tonight on the oppo- nents field and will play a three-game schedule next week. U U l No further action will be taken by the tennis team until the courts are dried out. Bear Golfers Face Libbey Linksmen At Ottawa Tues. Woodward's golfers will have a chance to show their wares next Tuesday, April 25, when they engage the Libbey links- men on the Ottawa park course. As there is no means of transporta- tion for the team, Coach Howard Phipps would like some boys who own cars to volunteer their services. They will be paid from the athletic fund. Any one interested can see Mr. Phipps in 142. Football Moguls Adopt New Set Of Rules For Hi Schools Ohio's high schools showed their ap- proval of more lenient rules for football and spring practice regulations by their votes on a referendum submitted to the schools by the state board of athletic control this week. The changes affecting the popular winter sport are: a football player with- drawn from the game may return once in each quarter. A coach may send in a football player, with instructions to be announced immediately to his team- mates instead of waiting until a play has been run. The board ruled that no school can hold a shortened spring workout and then open fall practice Aug. 20. The action of the schools on these measures constitute the most radical changes advocated in years by the Scholastic institutionsj SENIORS LEAD SCHOOL INTERCLASS MEET Pole Vault, Jumps, Hurdles, Yet To Be Run Off Next Week With three events, the pole vault high jump, and high hurdles still to be run off, the seniors have assumed a long lead in scoring of the interclass meet. The fourth year men have gar- nered 138 points to the sophomore 27, the frosh 23, and the juniors bring up the rear with but five counters. Leaders in the 100 and 220 yard dash- es were Jim Brubaker,Earl Ford, Ernie Bankey, Paul Cramer, Jim Thomas, Lou Rabideau, Herville Haynes, and Henry Cisek. Major point takers in the mile and middle distances were Otis Perry, Harvey Cook, Myer Greenbaum, and Bob Smith. Ernie Bankey, Cas Pawlicki, and Lou. Rabideau proved supreme in the quarter mile event. Ford, Merle Romer, and Frank Hogg dominated the hurdles while Pawlicki, Ted Nowak, Stan Klap, Lowell Burke and Bill Raczko, took high honors in the weight events. The relays were won by senior teams, with Freshman and sophomores follow- ing in that order. Results of this meet were used to determine the personnel of the varsity team for the Libbey and Fremont con- tests. Another interclass meet is being planned for the latter part of May, re- quiring all letter winners to remain out of competition, thus brightening the chances of non-varsity competitors.

PROM CO-CHAIRMEN FORESEE SUCCESS Jeanette Levine, Fred Saba Give Credit To Faculty, Committees, Class So farwe think the prom is going to be a success. The committee has worked very efficiently, and Hugh Mont. gomery is doing a fine job of making the programs that we planned. Various members of the faculty have been very genial in rendering their services, declared Jeanette Levine, energetic co' chairman of the senior prom. This attractive senior girl revealed that one of her main hobbies is dancing- The rest of her spare time is taken up by several outside organizations, eager- ly anticipated journalism conventions, reading, bicycle riding, and tennis. Discussions on European affairs in James Pollock's room give her much pleasure. A two letter girl, Jeanette holds the positions of vice-president of the Periclean Literary society, reporter of the Honor society, and co-news editor of the Tattlcr. One of Jeanette's present ambitions is to attend the New York World's Fair. Fred Saba Is Confident This year's senior prom is going to be the best Woodward has ever had, because we have a good committee and a responding senior class, stated Fred Saba, chairman of the event. A native of Toledo, Fred attended Lagrange grade school before coming to Woodward. Famous for his dancing, this Ujitterbugi' declared that he just picked it up. He serves as president of the Art Klan, property manager of the Glee Club and is a member of the Forum Literary society. When asked of his future plans, Fred confessed a desire to be either a com- mercial artist or a Certified Public Ac- countant. In the field of art, sign and poster painting appeal most to him. Honolulu shirts are all right in their placeg school could be included in this categorief' concluded Fred, the cause of many girls' heart tremors. Mrs. M. O'Brien To Attend Convention At Washington Mrs. Mary O'Brien, adviser of the Woodward chapter of the Junior Red Cross, was chosen to represent all Toledo Red Cross advisers at a national convention at Washington, D.

GOODMAN, SWING KING, IS INTERVIEWED Woodward Reporter Finds Top Swingster Is Shy, Bashful, Amiable Gazing with admiring eyes, yours truly fairly popped from his seat as the King of swing, Ben-ny Goodman, entered the LaSalle and Kochis French room and seated himself beside same, leav' ing his coat and hat in same's possess' ion. The nation's top swingster was found to be an amiable person, gifted with a shy, bashful personality almost as fascinating and interesting as his clarinet solos. He then rose to sign bookS and recordings, leaving same with prom, ise of a personal interview. Jitterbugs? I'm one myself, was the King's response to the question of whether he liked jitterbugs, in reference to his recent article in Colliers' con- demming the culprits. Benny explained that the correct definition of a jitterbug, however, is someone who likes to listen to swing and not deprive anyone else from listening. Improvising Musicians Chosen Good musicians with a good con ception of music make a jam session jell. In selecting men for his orchestra, the swingster chooses musicians that can improvise music well. Practically none of their music is ever written out. Five former members of his band have orchestras of their own. The band first made records for Englandj, Goodman stated when asked how he got his start. His first big posi- tion was in Billy Rose's Music Hall where he featured Let's Dance music. B. G. is still undecided what he's going to do with the fiuH' money that keeps accumulating every week. Then, after all these questions land of course the autographj had been forced upon him, Benny quickly bid adieu, leaving one reporter in a wan- dering trance that often envelopes fellow jitterbugs.

The name of it just mak me shudder. It's called Racket Buster This sort of picture will be shown school time. Anyone who wants to g anything out of school certainly objec' to these kind of pictures. If education: pictures cost too much, there are tho' sands of other pictures which will ben fit the student body much more. Why certain organizations are allo ed to bring in such trash to amud people in an institution of learning, don't know. But I do know, that ifhigf er authorities do not stop this sort 4 program, even if it means less profi the parents of diligent children mig look into this personally.

This was 'etaliated by Annie Wetterman with he argument that dates with students five the teachers inferiority complexes She explained that teachers aren't ,cquainted with the latest dance steps und they are rather slow in catching in to jokes. ' June Anderson claimed that dates vith students inspire her love for sur- 'ealistic painting, while Hazel McMa- iamon claimed that she always feels ike a new personlDopey, to be specificj. George Rohrer and O. M.

Constantly, Consistently Constructive Toledo, Ohio. April 28, 1939 No. 29 E E E H, BLOOD! E E E H, MURDER! Ed. note: Taken from a report sheet of a recent murder investigated by the English detective, Merle Romer. Dotson came rushing into my room early Friday morning blubbering some- thing about blood, knives, and murder at Woodward high school. We then drank our pink tea and went over to the Strand theatre to see Tee Hee. On our way back, we strolled over to the school to take part in the celebra- tion. Walking into the office, we were beseiged by flash bulbs, reporters, and wailing women. There on the Hoor lay the prostrate form of Louise Bokan. She looked perfectly darling with blood streaming down her neck. She was clad in a bright pupple georgette dress with black and orange polka dots, giving a lovely effect of demureness. Green high tops completed the victim's outfit. I took one careful glance and inform- ed Dotson that she worked nights at the Capitol. Dotson exclaimed at my re- mark and asked if I reached the conclu- sion by the dust on her boots or by the dandruff in her hair. Neither, I inform- ed him. I simply stated that I had been out with the girl the night before. From this deduction, I went to the fact that she had false teeth and prob- ably owed a dentist's bill. We then call- ed up the dentist, but he was dead too. With nothing else to work on except a few messy fingerprints and lost but- tons, I closed the case. It was dinner time anyhow. But, I say, if you really want to know the name ofthe murderer, I'll tell you---I didn't do it. Bang! Crash! Our frantic faculty has just announced a contest which, they hope, will help keep the kids amused. The contest, which will be a window breaking tour- nament, will take place next week, and will end, May 1. Each student will be given a sling- shot and a bag of stones, and will be left free to roam the building. At the end of the contest, pieces of glass will be counted and a prize of one pound of sausage will be awarded the winner. MAD SCIENTIST IS IN DEVILISH EXPOSED PINEAPPLE PLOT -1-i .l. JOE DUNCE PLANS NEW RESTAURANT Council Adviser Launches Big Movement To Further Student Interest Since Joe B. Dunce has been chosen adviser of the Student Council many new and constructive plans are being launched to make Woodward the per- fect high school. This open aircafe will be a student project. Members of the mechanical drawing class are now spending their time in drawing up plans. The woodshop gang is constructing the furniture, and Bitter's electricians are preparing all the lighting effects and broadcasting equipment. The art class is busily en- gaged in designing the clothes for waitresses and members of the staff. After these are completed, they will work on table cloth patterns. Students in the sewing circle will make all the costumes. Cooking classes are devising menus and are experimenting with many delicious dishes. Home nursing pupils have volunteered their services in case anyone has indigestion. The dramatic class will handle the floor shows. Print shop boys will do all the print- ing necessary for publicity and other matters, and Tattlers will be passed out daily to those people who care to read while they eat. Anybody who vio- lates Student Council rules will be made to wash dishes every lunch hour for a week. Among the other plans for improve- ment are escalators to replace the steps in order to avoid congestion that oc- curs between periods, and a sidewalk is going to be laid on the lot located on the corner of Mulberry and Park streets. Proceeds from Gayety Nite will be used to finance these projects.

MC. E. Staneart Found Mixing Bombs By Two Inno- cent Stooges A huge plot to dynamite Woodward high school was uncovered yesterday when two students innocently stumbled on C. E. Staneart, chemistry teacher, in the midst of his devilish work of mix- ing bombs. Confronted with the cold harsh evi- dence, the mad scientist made no effort to wriggle out of the charge. He merely shrugged his shoulders. I did it to help the students, declared the chemist. He went on to state that 9 out of 10 pupils would rather have a long vacation than do schoolwork. So, all he would do would be to bomb the school and then the pupils wouldn't have to. All during the year, C. E. Staneart had his chemistry classes mix evil smelling chemicals to produce a terri- ble odor. This would circulate through the building until every Woodwardite would be consious of the smell. In this way, the pupils would be so accustomed to these offensive odors that they wouldn't notice the smell of the explosive chemicals that I should station around the building, empha- sized the fiend. The two students who discovered the plot, Earl Greenberg and Sam Goodle- man, declared that if they had known the teacher's purpose in blowing up the school, they would not have interfered. When told that if Woodward had been bombed, those in the vicinity would go to Scott I never thought of that, de- clared the chemist. He will be sent to the Bad Boys' Home, where children are punished by being told about the boo gy man. , Clubs Select 13 Candidates For Zet Popularity Contest Woodward's most popular senior boys and girls will compete, as rep- resentatives of their clubs, to decide the king and queen in the Zet popu- larity contest.

The five naughty, naughty girls were expelled from school and were sent to Vassar for a summer session of Itls Not What You Do, But the Way That You Do It. We were asked not to publicize the girls' names, so we wouldn't for the world tell you that these naughty, naughty girls were Jane Riker, Lilla Baker, Clara McVickar, Virginia Krulikowski, and Jennie la Belle Payak. In fact, they weren't. I I I Mademoiselle Ruby Koehl made her debut last night in the boys' locker room.

Family trees are really beautiful things and not just fungus to be scorned. You hear that so and so's ances- tors came over on the Mayflower and it makes you just sick with envy, but what of it. Everybody came over on the Mayflower, but if you could prove that your great-greats arrived via the Juniper, or in a canoe, or even astride a whale, you'd really have something. I sincerely advise you to use all your resources to find out from whence you were hatched, even if you have to dig the poor things up and ask them. May- hap, your great, great, grandmothers second cousin's uncle's wife's sister was the nephew of Buffalo Bill, or even the cousin of Snow White. It is a most stimulating sport to bring your ances- tral map out into public at every possible chance and just show people who you are, or at least to whom you are related. It gives that sense of pride and re- sponsibility which is valuable. Also, I firmly believe that a family tree makes good citizens out ofits owners. For instance, just imagine the fine influence of being the direct descendant of Jesse James or Captain Kid. Ah, and consider the in- terest students would have in their history classes. Every Woodward student should have a family tree. In years to come I hope to establish an Ancestor Week when all pupils will have an opportunity to dig into their histories.

Senior girls solemnly vowed to forget any thought of graduation if the handsome dictator would give them a place in his army.

Girls are actually appearing clad in shoes tha have neither toes nor heels. Should a slight breezi blow, all the lassies would be afflicted with snifile. and sneezes. A cod in da head will also attack all those sillj boys who carelessly pass through the halls minus a hat. They shouldn't do that, their brains migh catch cold.

In addition, teachers have requested this ban oi the crimson tool due to the fact that the studentf when writing with said implement, follow it witl their eyes, and pay no attention to their composi tion.

SUSAN WILSON, SOPH LEADS TICKET SALES Walter Wilson, Cliff Kimes,L Mary Seibert Leads In Olass , Leading the whole school as well as the sophomore class in ticket sales is Susan Wilson, a slim, quiet girl with big brown eyes. She has accom- plished the almost unbelievable by selling 350 tickets plus the free ones she received. The secret of my suc- cess? Well, that's just it-a secret, she stated shyly. No amount of coaxing could persuade her to con- fide in us. . The Wilson family takes the spot- light again with Walter heading the Juniors by the sale of 75 tickets. He nonchalantly smiled and said it is very simple if you know how to do it, Being a typical male, he dislikes history and English and has recently turned woman hater. Cliff Kime, Jr., leading senior sales- man, insists that he sold his 27 tick- ets all by himself at the Interurban bowling alleys where he works. Cliff went to Fostoria high in his fresh- man year where he was president of the class. Being a member of the championship Woodward bowling team is his greatest accomplishment here. Highest freshman salesman is Mary Agnes Seibert, a graduate of Riverside elementry school. Her rela- tives and friends bought most of the 14 tickets accredited to her. After she completes her high school course, Mary Agnes would like to become a private secretary. Poor Little Girl! Poor Emma! Such a sweet young thing was Miss Berdue. But life got her down as It does the best of us. Our little grad- uate was out on a date last week and had to walk home. The strain was too much for her. She died. Oh, hum! fi: K DOORS TO OPEN AT SEVEN THIRTY TO ALL PATRON S OF GAYETY NITE K L. C. Clark Three Organizations Sponsor Pre-Gayety Nite Concessions Instead of sponsoring Gayety Night concessions, several Woodward groups made money on various proj- ects. The Municipal club, advised by Miss Marian McDonough, gave four third hour dances from which they cleared approximately flS25.00. Miss Dorothy Warner's first hour typing class sold sweet-pea corsages and gave a movie, The Mud Hens in Winter Training. The profit of 334.50 was given as their contribution to the Gayety Night fund. As they have done in former years, the Tattler staff will donate the money taken in on this issue of the Tattler in addition to the profits of the hot dog booth. Next year, all the girls' lockers will be guarded by a big handsome blue eyed cop! Come around to the Tattler's booth tonight and see the three All American football stars. CLUBS HAVE, VARIETY OF CARNIVAL CONCESSIONS Gay booths line the walls, much hustling and bustling is evident everywhere, student barkers proudly and loudly proclaim their wares, Woodward for one night has been transformed into a confused mass of people and noises, in short, it is Gayety Nite. With Louis Rabideau in charge, Student Council members will advo- cate trying your luck at their ball throwing game. The Spanish club will sponsor bingo with Horatio Jex and Gordon Schenk as co-chairmen, the Auto-Aviation group, an auto raf- He, the Sophomore and Senior Friend- ship clubs, a sample booth, the Elec- trical and Mechanical organizations, raffles, the Zetalethean Literary so- ciety, a popularity contest under the direction of Loretta lgnatowski and Dolores Kokocinski, the Senior Hi-Y, checking with Dick Scarisbrick in charge.

Cloine Meyers has charge of the Art Klan concession, the Klan Knight Klub, Richard Durham, the Alchem- ists' dart ball games, Virginia Gil- lette and Charlotte Cosner, the Junior Red Cross's fish pond, Helen Kosa- kowski and Sylvia Gottfried, the L. T. G's fortune telling booth, Dorothy Urbanowski, the French club's Ringo game, Sam Laderman, the Peiuper .club's Penny Arcade. REFESHMENT BOOTHS To feed hungry carnival fans, 13 groups will sell refreshments. Ginger ale and potato chips will be offered by the Library Association, with Marian Hesser, Verne Kramer, and Connie Swisshelm planning the booth. A coca-cola stand will be the conces- sion of the Fasces club with Doris Eckhart and Gween Henline as chair- men. Punch will be sold by the homeroom of Mrs. Joseph Bowyer, pop and sandwiches, by the Pulaski club, ice cream, by both the G. A.

The home nursing classes will sell pop corn, the P. T. A., homemade goods, and the Boys' Athletic Association will sponsor a country store. Prior to Gayety Nite several affairs were held. the profits of which have been turned over to the carnival fund. Among these were the dances given third hour by the Municipal club, the Cocoa Shack, by Miss Angela Abair, corsages and the Mud Hen Movies by Miss Dorothy Warner. Also proceeds from the sale of this Tattler fun issue will be added to Gayety Nite gains. Clubs Plan Thirteen Food Booths, Seventeen Concessions For the fourth consecutive year, Woodward's doors will be opened at seven-thirty tonight to patrons of Gay- ety Nite, annual carnival held for the benefit of the Athletic Association and various other school improvements. This year, S600 will be used to wire the building for radio reception. Charles LaRue has announced that no one will be admitted without a ticket. Besides admission, the tickets are good for a chance on a door prize and admit- tance to either of the three auditorium programs or dances which will be held in the course of the evening. Thirteen food booths and seventeen concessions have been planned by the several clubs. The dances will be spon- sored by the sophomore class and Polish Literary Society. The dance sponsored by the sopho- more class is under the direction of the class cabinet, and will be held in the- girls' gym. Bob Bailey and his Melody Makers will furnish music. In the boys' gym, the orchestra of Chester Zakrzew- ski will provide the music for dancing. This dance will be under the super- vision of the Polish Literary Society, of which Leo Robie is adviser. The dances will be run on the following schedule: the first, from 7:30 to 8:30, second, from 8:45 to 9:45, and the last, from 10:00 to 11:00. During the last dance, the King and Queen of the Zate popularity con- test will be crowned. Clyde Meek, in charge of the audi- torium programs, has planned three forty-five minute periods of entertain- ment. Each new program will begin on the hour, at 8:00, 9:00, and 10:00. The drawing for the door prizes will take place at 10:00, with Principal LaRue drawing the winning tickets. Twenty prizes will be given away. Gayety Nite was planned by the following faculty members: Lincoln Clark, in charge of concessions, S. B. Crouse and Joy Morhardt, in charge of the booth construction, Floyd Lords, who is directing juniors and seniors in soliciting donations, Mrs. Mary Crouse, who has been in sole charge of ticket distribution, and Mrs. Marie Ersig, publicity director. Students In Variety Show Besides the thirty minutes of enter- tainment which will be provided by the Trick Brothers' Accordion Band, in the auditorium, several Woodward students will take part in the miscellaneous pro- gram. Included on the list are Marian Mund- wiler and Imogene Bode, acro b a ti c dance, Betty Webb, vocal solo, Lois Roth, buck and wing dance, and Carol Schwartz, tap dance. Admission will be by Gayety Nite ticket stubs. Get Tough!!! Too many students have sunk to a meek tranquility when dealing with the Woodward faculty. This example of cowardice is, supposedly, what is commonly known as respect We wish to enlighten those students. Teachers, as a rule, suffer from inferior- ity complexes, and when they rule with an iron hand, it is simply to bolster their courage and give them self-confidence. They would appreciate it vastly if their pupils would adopt an attitude of familiarity with them and treat them as on an equal level. The Tattler, therefore, is originating a down with respect drive. We wish the student body to cooperate fully. Everyone can begin immediately by addressing his instructors as Joe, Hazel, or Charlie THE WOODWARD TATTLER NATIONALS LOSE 3 TO A POLAR BEAR Scott Throws Beach Balls Instead Of Regular 'Apples' A near riot occurred last Saturday when the National league bowling team met the Woodward Nats. Al- though hot from their recent victories in the Blade tournament, the Nation- als were powerless against the Nats and just managed to grab a draw. Scott was the one who started the battle. Substituting a big six foot beach-ball for the regulation apple, he easily slammed it down the groove for games of 600-915-745. After running half-way down the alley, Gawronski would throw the ball, hang on to it, and slide into the pinsf He keeled the maples every time for big 900 single game totals. The iight began when the opposing team cried out that the Nationals were cheating. Coach Howard Phipps told his boys that it was the last straw and that they should convince their opponents that honesty was the best policy. Spitballs Slung Durka became mad and began to sling spitballs right and left. Also carried away by the spirit of war, Zawacki started to swing a knotted handkerchief. Finally the manager restored peace and the playing was resumed. Marok stationed himself at the light switch and every time Kime would sling the ball, the lights would go out. Queerer than that, after the lights were turned on, Cliff would al- ways have a strike! Students Blow Down Pins On their hands and knees, John McMahon and Charles Sherman were hufling and puffing with all their might. When one of their team- mates would hurl the ball. they would blow down all the pins that remained standing. Antoszewski was really the out- standing player of the day. Spread- ing chewing gum over the outside of the apple, he would whip it down the alley. Of course all the pins stuck to the ball and so he was accredited with perfect games.

For all spiders: Helen Dressler was so interested in her book during the seventh hour li- brary period Monday that- she didn't even notice a poor little spider hobbling toward her on his six little paws. In fact she was so interested that she didnlt feel him crawl up on her wrist and partake of the goodies just under the skin. But being a very polite spider and not wish- ing to stuff himself in public, he only took six tiny bites. Then he bowedhis appreciation for the free lunch and went away. our games have been won by these methods. lt is not cheating, but merely illegal. Most of our high scores are a result of having Cum- mins and Zychowicz stand at the back of the room with bean shooters in their hands. They are truly dead eyes. I am sorry our secret was dis- covered. Smith Teaches Ballet Due to the lack ofa football coach, Art Smith will take up the regular spring practice session with ballet dancing, of which he is instructor. The four boys pictured above are going through one of there routines. After the pigskin tussles are over, the gridders will appear in shorts and whirl across the gridiron in lovely acrobaticsf' announced Smith. The instuctor believes that greater crowds will be drawn because of this added attraction. WooDwARD NOT TO I w1N '50 OLYMPICS! Coach Bill Fetter's farsighted ambi- tion for the 1950 Olmypic crown took a deep nosedive as a result of a warmup track meet held recently when the X, oodward faculty offset the opposition of his scantily clad turf yearlings to the tune oi 300 to 1. The varsity harriers were a bit slow as they trailed the tutors throughout' by one mile. Boyles Streaks ln the 100 yard dash, Miss Mary Boyles sped triumphantly to victory stranding Jim Brubaker and Louis Rab- ideau at the starting post behind a cloud of dust. Meanwhile, Little Mor- phine, Annie Wetterman, crawled in first in the mile workout of the potato race. Hopalong LaRue was the hero of the day as he scraped his shins on the low hurdles watching Ford go by. The shotput and discus throw event found Muscle Bound Shaw retaining her high scholastic standing for her 65th year as she demonstrated her strong arm superiority over Bill Raczko and Lowell Burke. 1All anti-Shaw sup- porters beware, dynamite comes in small packagesy Pollock Leaps 1 Ft. One of the spearheads of the peda' dogues burning attack was James Pol' lock who out vaulted Art Hertzsch- O.M. Thompson contributed to the enormous 300 point total by capturing the broad jump with a superb one foot leap. In the 220, Mile-a-minutei' Crouse displayed his running prowess when af- ter running 100 yards he looked back and spied a nail. Noted for his thrifti- ness, the tree butcher dropped back to retrieve it and then hurried to nose out Thomas in a photo finish. Sheline's Pants Rip Streaky Robie, Hotfoot Nuber, and Fleetwing Lankenau, contenders in the cross country collaborated for the re- maining digits. An astonishable feat was turned in by Ray Sheline who es- tablished a new unodicial record for the 880 event as he beelined for the dressing room upon encountering a ripped seam in his suit after clearing the high jump at 10 inches. The Fettersmen obtained their cher- ished marker byf' bribing the score- keeper who was, by the way, Honest Y Abe Capone. Meek Calls For Red-Blooded Athletes To Shoot Marbles Because of the demand for more red' blooded, he-man types of sport, Clyde Meek has announced that marbles will be entered as one of the new athletic sports. Activities tickets will cost S5 more next year? stated the athletic director. This will merely cover the cost of new equipment such as special hunching gloves, small brooms for clearing the ground, larger shoes for stopping the marbles, special mibs, and soft velvet gloves? He appeals to the students to support the team as they have a tough schedule ahead. Students Make Own Rules With Permission Of F.

THE SPIANS PRESENT HSMILIN' THROUGH Woodward Society Will Give Production Tonightg Ten In Cast As their annual production, the Woodward Thespian Society will pre- sent tonight the play, Smilin, Thru. The ten roles will be portrayed by nine Woodward graduates and one senior. Smilin' Thru takes place in England in the year 1917, against a complete out- door setting. The play opens with two bachelors, John Carteret and Dr. Owen, neighbors and inseparable companions. John's niece, Kathleen, who resides with him,falls in love with a young man named Kenneth Wayne. John is bitterly opposed to the match, for it was Ken- neth's father, Jeremiah, who, on the night of John's marriage to Moonyeen, accidently killed John's fiancee, whom he also loved. Jeremiah then fled to America, where he married and where Kenneth was born and raised. Dr. Owen regards J ohn's attitude toward Kenneth with disdain and, be- cause of their disagreement, they break their friendship. The war breaks out, and Kenneth goes, heartbroken over the broken friendships of Kathleen and himself, Jeremiah, his father, and John and Dr. Owen. When he returns, he is crippled. In visions, John imagines he sees the dead Moonyeen,and partly through the influence of his dreams, partly due to the gallantry of the crippled Ken- neth, and partly due to the efforts ofDr. Owen, the story ends with reconcilia- tions having been effected between the members of the cast. Those Woodward graduates who have roles are James Shemas, Virginia Mc- Clusky, Molly Rubin, Michael Jakcsy, Gus Brickman, Max Davis, and Norma Jean Allen. In the prologue, Dorothy Hall and Betty Mae Dalzell will have parts. Harley Lucas, senior, will portray the role of Dr. Owen. V. Skelding And M. Stafford Win In Popularity Contest Virginia Skelding, candidate of the French club, and Mason Stafford, rep- resentative of the Engineering society, were chosen the two most popular stu- dents in the Zet popularity contest Gayety Nite. Virginia Wendel of the Spanish club and Frank Scott, who was supported by the Art Klan placed second. Operator, Operator! Number, Please Do Unto Other As You Would Have Them Do Unto You. Which sounds lovely and usually works in practice. Perhaps, though, some of the senior fellows are too believing in proverbs. Or perhaps they were under the in- fluence of enough is enough. The point is they seemed to be weary of being fooled when Miss McLaughlin, senior history teacher, would exclaim, only three questions for tomorrow, then proceed to add about twenty parts to each question. The ingenius fellows informally call- ed a mild strike, and instead of calling a sit-down, they took progressive ac- tion by calling Miss McLaughlin late in the evenings, explaining that they missed the assignment for the day and requested the historian to read the as- signment over the telephone.---And so into the night. P. S. The assignments weren't short- ened. Miss McLaughlin's cold IS caused from a trip in Kentucky, NOT from too late hours answering phone calls.

However, many happy days still are before us. Before this year's graduation, every senior has the right to attend the banquet, go to the senior picnic, and explore Toledo University. Not only do seniors have this right to attend, but it is their duty to attend. These events will linger long in the individual's mind and in later years even memories are welcome. Therefore, seniors, before the curtain is entirely drawn, make up your mind that you are going to attend every event. Then each and every one of you may have the privilege of making the last days of your school life the happiest ones. We Did It Again OR the fourth consecutive year Woodward has sponsored a Gayety Nite which has again been a huge success. Many people were engaged in this project, both young and old. Some organizations sponsored pro- grams long before the carnival. Others were engaged in. preparing booths for that night. Nevertheless, through the hearty cooperation of both teachers and students, Gayety Nite proved to be a success. The Gayety Nite committee extends its thanks to everyone who has helped to make this annual night a profitable one. A Geomectric Principle gg STRAIGHT LINE is the shortest distance between two points. However, true as this statement is, if carrying it out involves cut- ting cross the school's or anyone else's lawn, let us disregard this geometric principle. Surely our time isn't so valuable that we can't afford to take a few extra steps to avoid tramping on the green, spouting grass. Much time, money, and effort is expended to make lawns appear beautiful. Let's use some care to keep them that way. 'Spring Is Here--- PRING IS HERE. Why don't our hearts go danc- ing? Probably because they are weighted down by too many sweaters and jackets. The warm weather accompanying spring should be a hint for the shedding of all these superfiuous garments. Wearing as loose and cool clothing as possible is not only healthful, but makes the wearer much more comfortable. In fact, some people say, of course 1t'B just a rumor, but some people say, ifhat it's a remedy for that season villain, Spring ever.

Sport Oddities Have you ever noticed the similarity between an announcer describing a sports event and the actions of a boy trying to win a maid? See what similarity you can find in the following broadcasts. FOOTBALL Hello, Folks! There are the contenders out on the field. Now for the big event. One of the contenders starts throwing pass after pass, but they do not click. He is worried because his technique has never failed before. Wait, one of the contenders starts running to- ward his goal, sweeping aside all interference. He's made it! Both teams go into a huddle, and that's the end of the contest, folks. BASEBALL Here we are ladies and gentlemen, and all ready to go. One of the players is running toward first base and he makes it! They say he always gets to first base with anyone. He's running toward second, trying to gain more ground, but I think that he is taking too much for granted. He can't make it folks, and the other contender has put him out. The player goes back to the bench a sadder and wiser man. Could Be! We wonder what would happen if Dalton was a mountain instead of a Hill---if Mildred was a plumber instead of a Weaver--if Dorothy was a sure thing in- stead of a Gamble---if Allan was an icemau instead of a Coleman-if Virginia was a butterfinger instead of a Wolfinger--if George was a drum instead of a Horn --if Jane was a day instead of Weeks. Or if Shirley was a roll instead of a Bunn---if Bob was a peach instead of a Cherry--- if Dorothy was a Swing instead of a Swaya---if Elmer was a grocer instead of a Miller-if Frank was a cow instead of a Hogg--if Evelyn was a vegetable instead of Flowers. If Maurice was a Chevrolet instead of an Essix. The cheerleaders are keeping Alice Morse busy at her locker each day. C U O Likewise for Dorothy Adams and Martin Blum. U 8 i The Thing To Do 1. Is it all right for a boy to give a girl a present on her birthday? Aus. He may give her an inexpensive gift if they are good friends. Accepting it doesn't put her under obli- gation to him. 2. May a girl give a boy a present on his birthday? Ans.fNot unless they are close friends. But she can send a birthday card to anyone she knows. 3. Should a boy smoke when walking with a girl on the street? Ans. No 4. Is it correct for a girl to wear jewelry to school. Ans. She should wear very little jewelry to school, perhaps a wristwatch and a bracelet, or a plain ring. . .. ..-,,,,.. . .......-1hmg.G.e. . ,. Time For Beauty Woodward females undoubtedly have managed' look gorgeously scrumptious at the proms and ch dances this year. However, ninetyfnine percent the males are ignorant of the patient labor in becon ing beautiful. The most conscientious gals start 1 least three hours ahead of time, because like barn they need at least three coats of paint to make the: look decent. Others take from thirty minute to two hours, according to the occasion, man, an time available.

Then comes thefirst coat, grea Smear up, smear down, smear all around.Next, t first dose of powder liies.

The girls have invented sever. ways of coloring their mouths, to enticing velv1 lor somethingl. Then there are the eyes, lash and brows which are pampered, pruned, and pi ished. A dash or two more of powder, and we al done. Of course this all must be renewed later bl for the time being, well lphooeyl. mmm All About Romance Seems as the Senior Prom did alot of damag to many romances..

POLAR BEARS ENTER TIGER NIGHT RELAYS Coach Fetters Places Two Relay Teams, Hi Jump In West End Meet Ladies and gentlemen, we are coming to you from the Page Stadium, scene of the first annual DeVilbiss night relays, held May 5 at 7:30 p.m. About 35 schools of Ohio and Michi- gan are represented here, and have competed in the preliminaries held this aftetnoon. Of these, about half are of Class A caliber and the remainder in the B bracket. HThese relays are not, as a whole, standard track events, but are more interesting to the spectators.The high jump and pole vault are the only field events on the program. The racing schedule includes the 100 yard dash, hurdles, and one, two, and four lap relays. In one of the latter, the first and third men carry the baton two laps, while the second and fourth circle the the oval four times. Coach Bill Fetters of Woodward has entered the Bears in three events, 880 relay, medley relay and the high jump. Ernie Bankey, Jim Brubaker, Jim Thomas and Louis Rabideau compose the first mentioned with Otis Perry, Ernie Bankey, Jim Brubaker and Lou Rabideau on the relay team. Herville Haynes and Earl Ford in the high jump are the only other Bears entered. Cups will be awarded the winners by five pretty DeVilbiss queens, elected by their student body. Admission is set at twenty-five cents a head. SPORT SHORTS By Fish And Hope Members of the girls' gym classes are still enjoying the big cage ball which has been borrowed from Libbey.

This article is just a brief review of the sporting events that took place between April. 22 The 0 ening of the track season at Fremont on the 22 found Woodward end- ing thir in a triangular meet. DeVilbiss led with 64 points, next was Fremont Ross with 62, and the Bears managed 20 markers. Otis Perry took Woodward's'. Klone first in the mile event. On the 259 and 28. 5' Baseball Squad Loses Five Straight, Play Scott Tonite It's No. 5 in the loss column for Woodward's baseball nine apparently have started too fast in the wrong direction. Perhaps this is the work of our friend Mr. Jinx again, who re- cently displayed his power over our football squad. What ever it is the effect is sure destructive. However as a whole the team is not actually as bad as the game scores have indicated. One thing Coach Robie lacks is pitchers. The only ones who have fared well so far have been Kaminski and Eurenius who have worked in most of the games and canlt last forever. The Bears have been knocking the pill around lately but to no great ex- tent. The defense needs a little tight- ening. Friday the Bears engage Scott in their sixth contest of the season. Six sounds like a lucky number and mira- cles do happen---sometimes. Bulldog Netmen Give Bears 8-0 Lacing At Jermain Park Scott's tennis team proved too much for the Polar Bear netmen by defeating them 8-0, last Tuesday at the Jermain Park courts. None of the boys managed to salvage a set as Corwin Brandt lost to Gray 4-6 and 2-6, while Bob Schwellinger was defeated 2-6, and 1-6 by Rathbun. The doubles team composed of Bob Knoke and John McMahon lost to Wenzlau and Kolvas by sets of 0-6 and 4-6. Ivor Williams and Nick Shemas who took Jim Furcron's place on the other duo, were taken by Floripe and Fess by scores of 4-6 and 4-6. This makes the third straight loss for the Rohrerites, as they previously succumbed to Macomber and Waite. Woodward drew a bye yesterday, but come up against Central next Tuesday. Polish Knights, Renaissance Victors In First Two Games The Polish Knights and the strong Renaissance teams were off to a fast start in the first round of the softball tourney by grabbing their first two games to knot for the National league lead. In the Nat's loss column are the Polish Lits and the Engineers suffering one setback apiece, and the Hot Shots with two losses. Maintaining a state of equilibrium in the American loop, we have the Avia- tion and the Cleveland A. C. both with one win each while on the negative side is the Gen. Shop and the Fighting Cubs with one defeat apiece. Competition in horse-shoe pitching was inactive this week with the Rens and the Polish Lits playing the only games. Clean-Up Week In response to a request from the Junior Chamber of Commerce, on Mon- day the Woodward band was driven about the neighborhood to stir up interest in National Clean-Up week. Three trucks were used to transport the members and their instruments on their bally-hoo job, that's circus language for advertising. R. K. Sheline's physic classes worked a sound experiment in Wilson Park, Tuesday, by using blank shells belong- ing to Edmund Erndt and Bob Smith. , , Nas.

Al Hoover and Al J one led the Bulldog scorers. Libbey paced the Bears 80 to 38, in a meet on the 27. Dick Huston, the Cowboy speed demon, led the scoring with 20 points. Bankey, Perry, Ford, and Pawlicki took flrsts ins their respective events. 4, Moundsmen Mauled Vocational's baseball squad handed the Bears a 16-6 trouncing in the Blue and White's league opener on the 24 of April. Eurenius, Schulz, and Knakiewicz did mound duty for the Robieites. Eurenius showed some fine pitching during his tenure on the rubber. The next day the Bears were again defeated by the Tigers, 9-5, with Schulz and Kaminski doing the pitching. Kaminski fanned ten men in 5 innings, while holding DeVilbiss to three hits. In a close fought battle on April 27 the teams was again nosed out by Central, 11-10. Kaminski and Eurenius, who were on the mound,at one time held a 9-2 lead over the Irish but could not hang on to it. Woodward's offense is all right, but the defense needs loads of improvement. Last Friday the Woodward nine en- countered Libbey and were defeated 5-3. Knakiewicz and McFarland did the pitching for the Bears and Bill Haffeld- er got the only extra base hit of the game. Linksmen Lose Coach Howard Phipps' golfers met Libbey on the Ottawa links on the 25th of April, and were handed a 17-1 set- back. Captain Vince Gigliotti and Ray Kranz each earned one-half point to to keep the Bears from getting a goose egg. On the 27, the linksmen were downed by the lop-sided of 18-0 on the same course by DeVilbiss. A low score of 75 was posted by a Tiger man. The tennis team coached by George Rohrer, was defeated 5-3 on the 25th, by Macomber. Williams and Farcron took two double sets from the craftsmen 6-2 and 6-5, while McMahon and Knoke,split with scores of 1-6 and 6-4. Brandit and Schwellinger lost all their singles sets to the opponents. On Thursday of the same week, the netmen were very un- successful, being beaten 8-0 by the Waite Indians. The matches were play- on the Jermain courts. E ' In The Sportlight Having a dire need for copy this week, we selected a baseball player at random and Norm Monto was the re- sult---Norm a senior, is a born Slugger ---batted .750 in the Blade league last year---continues -his batting prowess with Woodward this year---is short and stocky, standing five feet and weighing 165 pounds---hopes to attend Lincoln University after graduating, if he does, from Woodward---Normls favorite study is Modern European History- Pete and Helen Scheidler have much the same idea concerning romance--squan- ders the Forum club's dues in his posi- tion of treasurer-plays softball with a Galena Street gang in- the summer-- thinks Mud Hens will annex pennant- tap dances in spare time---was quarter- back on the reserve team last year-- hangs out in the Mystic theatre--fleft over from the fun issue.J rfsl' . , . wr- ' E THE WOODWARD TATTLER 1 1 f TAT-WARDS Attention please, are you feeling a touch of spring sunshine this fateful day?

ROOSEVELT Mrs. Mary O'Brien In celebrating the National Red Cross Convention at Washington, D. C., Mrs. Mary O'Brien, together with two stu- dents from Scott High School, were en- tertained by President Roosevelt on the lawn of the White House. Cordell Hull, secretary of state, later spoke at a ban- quet for the Red Cross group. . Approximately 3000 delegates attend- ed the convention, of which 850 were members of the Junior organization. The total number of members in the United States, however, ex c e e d s 9,000,000. Toledo was publicly honored for pre- senting a portfolio to Mr. Gard, chair- man ofthe Jr. Red Cross of the United States, and the state of Ohio won the flag for having the greatest member- ship in the organization according to the total population. Mrs. O'Brien also made a tour of both houses of Congress and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and is happily looking forward to a similar trip next year with the hope that Woodward may also be represented among the dele- gates. Louis Dot All Wet! For a story filled with thrills and pa- thos, ask Louis Emm about his recent splash into the drink in the vicinity of Walbridge Park. It all happened when he was attempting to jump from a sailboat onto the pier. Even without the help of a banana peel, Louis man- aged to lose his balance and fall into the Maumee. Incidentally, when he emerged, his trousers had collected so many fish that the warden arrested him for catch- ing fish with a net.
