Life About School Friday evening. November 19. during the second team game of Syracuse vs. Concord, the Syracuse fans were shocked to see Nelson Kotler slump to the floor as he twisted and sprained his ankle. Th? other day as I talked to Nelson, who is now limping around on crutches. I asked him when he would start playing with the team once more, he answered, “Prob ably after Christmas vacation.” Well. Nelson, you hurry up and get well so we Syracuse fans can really yell again for a mighty fine basketball player! , I decided to take a poll on what some of the Syracuse kids were going to do over Thanksgiving vs- ' cation, and came up with these strange and varied, replies: Jane Kroh. “Loaf, sleep til noon, and have dales." (Naturally !> Chuck Largen. “Go hunting." Larry Mock. "Go hunting with Chuck.” (Don’t shoot each other!) Freda Borhis. "Work!” Terry McClintic, “Work at Foo 6t Faye s over the weekend.” Dixie Dorsey. “Rest UP. while I’ve got the chance." (Ha!) Barbara Thornburg. Celebrate Thanksgiving dinner with my grandparents.” Tom Koble. “Go hunting. Bank! Bang! Jim Connolly. "Go to Indianap oils to hunt.” (???) It seems that Mrs. Vances ’ H ome Ec class is having some difficulties in making butterscotch cream pie. I was printing a poster one day down in the kitchen. One « young lady was really having a time. First she got too much flour in the crust, then nearly burned the butterscotch filling. Said she. “This is just my bad day!; (Don’t get discouraged, girls. You're the future homemakers of America!) Tuesday. November 23 the seniors were realy rich, that is, up until noon.

While I was waiting for the clerk to return I became engaged in conversation with the ’linotype operator. She introduced [herself as Yvonne Maxine Call, 1 and she told me that she had been ibom here in Syracuse on May 23, ’ 1937, but she had later moved to

' y ' Ogden. Utah, then to Cromwell, Indiana and finally to Syracuse again. The longer Yvonne and I talked the more engrossed we became with each other. In response to my somewhat personal questions Yvonne told me her favorite color is blue. —the color of her eyes, incidently, and that she likes nothing better than to eat barbequed pork chops and listen to George Beverly Shae sing "Good Night and Good Morning.” This brown-haired. 5 foot 7 inch girl told me that in school her favorite subject had been journalism taught by her favorite teacher. Mr. Lewis Immel. Touching upon the subject of sports. I learned that Yvonne likes softball, volleyball and badmitton. Her faverite pastime is writing letters—when she w-rites them. Like all people. Yvonne has her dislikes and pet peeves. A favorite pet peeve is people with crooked seams and baggy nylons. And of all things. Yvonne likes to work! More power to you, Yvonne! Keep it up!

November 24; Harriet Traster, November 27; Donna Reed. November 27 The News Staff would like to apologize for not starting the column of Birthdays until now. To all those who have been missed we hope you had a very Happy Birthday. The old frontiers are gone or going, but now we can plainly see a new, large, thrilling frontier looming in the distance. It is the frontier of wisdom and understanding. The young race has played cowboy and Indians long enough. The time has come for it to mature and engage in the pursuits of maturity. Instead of pursuing things, we shall pursue ideas. Following physical research comes spiritual research, to open to us the good new country of God.— Clinton E. Bernard in Good Business.
