The real "test in France: will come wheh*t!hc full strength of the German reserves are thrown "against the ■Allied forces.

Tennis, volley ball, and track mpde their, appearance, and with the fading out o f feminine basketball, the girls developed a sports program o f greater variety and enjoyment under such instructors as Mary Jean Towns- ley, and Dorothy and Elizabeth An­ derson. • • The boys have gone in more stren­ uously for baseball than, in years gone by, and turned out snappier teams and tighter games. Clyde Walker; Eldon Gillespie, Cecil Thomas, Harry Wallace, Joe Waddle, and Jim North- up are a few o f the rjfecent diamond men, and they have woA*|rtheir quota against the old familiar opponents, Wilmington, Defiance,. Wilberforce,* Dayton, and Bonebrake Since neith­ er Cedarville nor Antioch had football squads, they amiably got together one season for a couple o f soccer games. The score both times was 3 to 3, What would coach Scarff hav^ said? The boys also had time for a longer basketball season; and' ‘mainly under coach John: . Ault they dimed, to where they won eight out o f ten in 1937. In 1939 they did even better, winning thirteen games and the Championship of the Northwest Ohio Conference. Eugene Kavanaugh, Ken neth McNeal, John Reinhnrd, and Russell Roberts were a few on the large squad that trimmed Wilmington Biuffton, and even Otterbein. Things should have been, pretty exceptional that year though, for there were at least five coaches working in the dif­ ferent {departments: Leslie Miller, Kenneth McNeal, Wiley* Jackson, and Johnny Mills. C>. liege annual staffs have taken a tip from the picture .magazines and the engraving salesmen and put to­ gether some handsome books that a t­ tractively illustrate college life and show what went on, and how, and why.

In order to keep tlie school running smoothly in a world that gets more complex economically,, it .was found advisable recently to hire a business manager. Mr. John L. Dorst of Springfield was the first one, followed liy Mr. Ira D. Vayhinger, who has now become the college’s fourth and current president. In fact the college purchased a farm where students o f limited means could work part time and thus gain assistance toward an education. There is a current scarcity o f boys, hut the land will wait. This just about brings us down to present day affairs at .the college. Of course we haven't included everything that happened. Half ft century can be gorged with people and happenings; and? of the'hundreds of 'trustees, pro­ fessors, and students who climbed the limestone steps and slammed the doors of Gibson Hall, each had his own biography, his own effect on the school. Lots of items have had to be omit­ ted, We have left out the description of the once popular Faculty Recep­ tions at the Library, when all the books Were hidden with white muslin, and cedar twigs. We didn’t tell about that early Cedar Day when it poured rain, and performers and audience were crowded steaming and disap­ pointed into the chapel for the'pro­ gram. When you had to climb wear­ ily to the third floor offices. When students drove horses and “ rigs” , and there was a large, circular hitching rack near the ball diamond: When eenterfield Wfts ft rocky hill -and*a ball player’s nightmare. There was the time Jean Morton sprained her ankle on a chapel stack­ ing expedition, when Harold Iliff hid an auto seat in the old well in center- field; when cowboy Frazier Fields in 1922 rotten egged the Btudents And the town boys into a near riot, when boys of early years Used to climb the in­ dented brick .frttnt of the college like human flies, when Coach Warner and friends burned a fake Ku Klux cross on Lowry’s bridge, ,• And just try to recall all the church socials, the Hallowe’en frolics, the Bible Reading Contests, musical re­ citals, president’s ‘ receptions, the president’s receptions, the Y.

Bricker a potential candidate for the presiden­ tial nomination at the Republican Na­ tional convention in Chicago, starting Monday* all Ohioians will keep ait eye on radio and news reports from that city when the convention opens. There are. but two outstanding: can­ didates rin the running at present and red ly -Governor Bricker is the only candidate that has openly stated both a foreign and domestic policy. Gov. Thomas L. Dewey, New York, has not ilefinitely announced yet he is cred­ ited with more delegate, support but this is questioned by the Bricker sup­ porters. Roy Moore, Canton, 0 . ,pub- ' lisher, has managed the Governor’s* ' pre-convention campaign. Governor Bricker has prevailed on ■ Cong. Clarence J. Brown to become his convention floor manager ftnd he is expected to arrive, in Chicago Sate urday morning,. Mr. Brovm.is credit­ ed with having a personal acquain­ tance with more o f 'the various'state' Republican leaders, and delegates, than any one other person. He'man­ aged the Taft floor convention fight and was manager o f the - vice presi­ dential campaign of the -late Frank 'Knox. Senator Robert A. Taft is to he chairman o f the important resolu-. tions committee- which is now in- ses­ sion drawing up the document. Another honor th a t . is slatedufor Cong. Brown, is that the Ohio delega­ tion will name him* as National Com­ mitteeman fo r Ohio. Both Senators- ■Taft and Burton favor Brown's selec- 'tion. The election o f Mrs. Katharine Kennedy Brown as national committee woman- for another term is: assured* Her home- is in Dayton: Many political and social functions/; have been arranged fo r the -Ohio dele- delegation' during the week. Mrs. Taft Mrs, Burton; wives o f the Senators;; ' Mrs. Kennedy. Brown andMrs.. Lottie Randolph and Miss Louise. Jones, Col- - unibus will honor Mrs. Bricker with a “ Tea” at the Stevens .Hotel grandball room Monday afternoon from four to five o’clock. Numerous civic and com- merciah organizations ; have also is­ sued -invitations for various receptions during the week. Mayor James Garfield Stewart of Cincinnati, Republican nominee for- . Governor, and one o f the outstanding orators id the state, will make the nomination speech presenting the name o f Governor Bricker to the con­ vention. . The convention will be held in the Stadium which seats 25,000 persons. Chicago has had more national con- • ventions, Republican and Democratic than any other city in the country. * We have reviewed a little history and find the first Republican convention was held at Chicago in the “ Wigwam” which was erected at a cost of $5,000 when Lincoln was nominated fo r president in' 1860. The following Re­ publican candidates were nominated at Chicago conventions as follows: Grant in 1868; Garfield in -1880; Har­ rison in 1888; Theodore Roosevelt, in 1904; Taft in 1008; and again in 1912; Hughes in 1916; Harding in 1920 and Hoover in 1982. The editor exp e ct to be in attend­ ance at the convention as an alternate to Cong. Clarence J. Brown and we hope to be able to give you some of the sidelights of the'convention that will not likely be found in dailymews dispatches. Mrs. L. G.

H ER A LD A N N O U N C E S A H O L ID A Y T h e Hiermld announces a holiday for the week beginning June 26 and ending Monday, July 1. For this reason there will be no issue of- the Herald on Friday; June 30th. This will be the first time the Herald Will have missed an issue since th'e~]p&- per fell under the present management, on April 8,1899, forty- five years ago. We have been informed by former owners that the Herald en'joyed an unusual record of never missing an issue since it was founded in 1877. We had hoped to hold out for a fifty year record but circumstances make it impossible at this time. Many weekly papers close their plants for a full week to give their employees a vacation. Daily papers /discontinue issues on var­ ious holidays,1 so we see no reason why our readers will not ap­ prove of a holiday, week, at least the first in forty-five years. There will be no mechanical work;yeb the office will be open at intervals during the week. The vacation; if it can be called such, attending the Re­ publican National Convention in Chicago as an alternate* will be an interesting event and one only a comparatively few citi­ zens ever have the opportunity o f attending in &lifetime. In as much as Governor John W. Brisker is seeking the nomination \ i president on his ’ party ticket, and ,we have been one of his staunch supporters, because his official life in Ohio is a strong recommendation for the nomination, We are' pleased to offer our service in his behalf. Nothing will please us better than to be able to announce his nomination in our issue of July 7th, regardless o f’the fact the daily press -and radio will have announced it first*
