Buzzing from The Corridor by "BUZZ” Seven days have passed. So what, you say? I know to you it may seem just like another week —but to me—it’s School News time again! And just between you and me, I’ve got a test to study for yet this period, so if this seems a little dry—well, you’ll understand. As the 1941 football season draws to a close, we can proudly take off our hats to a grand bunch of gridmen—the SPARKPLUGS! They bore the load of heavy opposition without a falter, up until the very last game when they met a team, Lawrence by name, who had just a little tougher team than the rest. The Speedway "goalstrivers” really did establish a grand* record that will look extremely shining in our book of memories. Remember ’way back September' 12, 1941, when the Johnson boys traveled out to New Augusta to match their wits against the Red Devils? Remember the score at the end of that game—it read Speedway 26; New Augusta 0. Surely you haven’t forgotten the Greenwood game, September 19. That was the night our boys ran up a top-heavy score of 62-18 to chop down the Woodmen for their second consecutive win! Then on September 26, 1941, the Sparkplugs met the Decatur Central Hawks in a fast-moving match which again brought our team out on top, the score board registering 24-0. Another victory for Speedway was when the Beech Grove Hornets were stung by a margin of 53-8. The Gold and Brown still shone for Victory. Imperishable in our memory book will be the thrilling and speedy Plainfield-Speedway encounter, when the Gold boys tackled the undefeated Blue boys for another win, 26-0. That was THE game! Danville ventured out toward Speedway on October 22, to defend their colors against ours. However the goal posts were more frequented by the Sparkplugs, and the score at the finish was 44-0. Now for the last and most trying game of the season which was played on October 27, 1941. Our boys really put up a great fight against the Lawrence squad, but somehow they couldn’t get started against the mightier opponents, (who, by-the-way, were also undefeated,) and the score read Lawrence 8; Speedway 6! That was really tough luck, for this was to be the deciding factor in determining the County Champs. To Lawrence goes that honor. On the cover of the Sports book,

Volume of Memories, will be placed the picture of the Firing Sparkplugs—the boys who can W-I-N! Tonight, because of the football team’s grand season and good fighting spirit, Mr. Richardson, Mr. Turner and Mrs. Smith, are taking the boys—and their girls—on a weiner roast. They’ll travel to Kernel's Lake, where the team will really down—hot dogs! The evening will be started by a truck-hay-ride, —the truck belonging to Mr. Turner. I’m sure everyone will have a grand time—so, now I’ll speak for them and say—THANKS A MILLION! Sadie Hawkins has not only established a tradition around Dogpatch, but she has also established an IDEA around here. The Junior Class has finally decided to have that long-hoped-for dance of theirs! When is it going to be? Well, friends, it’s called the “Sadie Hawkins Jive-ve-ree”, so naturally, its going to be November the eighth! Let’s all go and do some fancy jiving to the tunes of a grand orchestra! What’s say, Jitterbugs—let’s go! The Sixth Grade won! The Sixth Grade Won! Won what? Why the paper sale! Yes sir, those kids really went out and got some papers for their group. Congratulations! The best of luck to the rest of you next time. This afternoon, the Juniors were shown a moving picture by the Marion County Tuberculosis Association. This class will be given the pratical T.B. test later on this semester. Alice Powell and Margaret Rosner were delegates from the Speedway Home Economics Club to the High School Club Section of the Indiana Home Economics Association, last Thursday. This was an all day meeting and luncheon held in conjunction with the Teachers’ Association Meeting. They had a grand time, and really learned some interesting and helpful things, that will go together in making our club the best! Last Wednesday, the Child Development Class exhibited a layette and baby supplies. These articles were furnished by Lyons Department Store. The Home Economics Club held their first Charm School meeting on Thursday, October 30, at 3:30. Mrs. Ernest Sutton, instructor for Luzier’s Cosmetics made up several of the girls—ah! Pretty too! No wonder this Home Ec Club is so popular around school—careful, fellows! Well, that’s about all for this week, my good people—so until next time, remember I’m Journalistically yours, Marcy Mann.

The American Red Cross does not receive financial support from United States Government. The people support the Red Cross through annual membership dues and voluntary contributions. So it is up to every one of you to help the Red Cross by joining it. Every husband and wife is asked to join as well as all other members of a family. There are Red Cross Units at every camp to help the boys if needed. There are also hospitals; five thousand nurses were trained by the Red Cross last year. Forty million surgical dressings have been made, beside all the garments the sewing units have made. Indianapolis is one of the first cities to have the blood stations sponsored by the Red Cross. Only fifty-cents of each membership is used to support the National Red Cross service. The balance is retained by your chapter for local work. During the past year almost one million volunteers contributed millions of working hours to make possible the services which your Red Cross is carrying to the people of the United States.
