Still not ready to go home,
games were suggested, but every-
one thought folk games would be
more fun. For about thirty min-
utes, we at least tried this type of
games.
Someone mentioned a pep rally,
then everyone w*b outside yelling
as loudly as they could. Good-
night wqs said, and everyone went
home.
Monday afternoon at pep squad,
the Homemakers met and elected
Mr. Mercer our chapter dad. Billie
Rankin is to be our chapter repre-
sentative, when a new sergeant-ut-
arms is elected for our area.

SEVENTH HEADLINES
Have you heard—
Mrs. Robertson’s clock alarm
going off? (Someone near the
front set it off—who did it?
Bradford or Curtiss, take your
pick. We think they both had a
hand in it.)
The football talk that floats
about the room after the bell
rings? “Wait, what time is the
kick-off?” “Seven forty-five, I
think, Say how much . are two
tickets going to cost me?” Those
conversing are Don Emmons and
Bobbie Await. (It's all a joke.)
Someone read Marrolyn’s entry
in a certain girl’s autograph book,
hot ,eh ?
Someone call good luck to
Charles Don as he enters music
class. (O’ boy!)
This is Station WOW signing
off. You have just heard Smug-
gled Rumors From Across the
Campus with Sue Wood and Faye
Stone reporting. This report came
from the school building with its
danger and darkness.

EAGLES FLOG PANTHERS
Friday night the Fairfield
Eagles took to the field for their
third conference game and again
came off the victor by a 32-0
score.
The Normangee Panthers field-
ed a team that looked very good
in the first quarter of play hut
the Eagles finally pulled them-
selves together and started the
game going their way.
Douglas Dixon marker! up the
first score on an qjid sweep going
over standing up. The point con-
version wras missed. In the second
quarter Dixon scored again on an-
other end sweep. Cole made the
extra point. Soon after the Eagles
kicked off. Cole marked up an-
other tally for the Eagles but the
point was missed. When the half
ended, the Eagles were on the big
end of a 19-0 score.
Reese starter! off the third quar-
ter fey running over another Eagle
score "after having one touchdown
on a pass interception called back.
The conversion on this score was
good. Soon after, the Eagles had
another touchdown on a pass in-
terception by Bowie Mullen called
back when he stepped out of
bounds a yard from the goal line.
On the next play Fairfield lost
the ball on a fumble. The fifth
and final score of the game was
made by Cherry on a line plunge.
The Eagles do not play a game
this week. The next game will be
the Teague game here on the
Eagles home field one week from
Friday. This game promises to
be one of the toughest on the
Eagle schedule so the boys will
appreciate all the backing their
fans can offer.
