On the School Scene By Vera T’hordsen When leaves turn to bright orange, red, and biown; wh-.n eid- er coiiics off tbo \yhc?ti nights become chilly and frost think of our fall celebration-" Hallowe’en. Probably no American custom can be traced further back into history than this one. For it was the Celtic people, centuries before the Christian Era, who began it when they worshipped the spirits o f their day with the same devices which we now use for fun at our parties. The first o f November began the new year for these people. This day was known as All Saints’ Day. It was celebrated the night before, on what-was known as All Hallows’ Eve, which term was shortened to Hallowe'en. These people were very much in fear o f supernatural beings, so they built fires to drive off the evil spirits. Borrowing their de­ vices, we have our witches, ghosts, goblins, black cats, and fairies. A religious feast to the goddess Pomona fell near All Hallows’ Eve, It was to her that nuts, apples, and pumpkins were of­ fered. Thus this tradition has been carried down to us. in the form of apple fortunes and gam­ es, roasted nuts, and Jack-o-lan- terns. Do we not, therefore, owe to these people of long ago, a vote o f thanks for giving us these super­ stitions which make possible for us one o f our gayest seasons o f the year? . . . . . . Carnival by the Band On October 28 at the high school, the Senior Band members are venturing forth with the first big carnival vvhich has been held by the school for years. All the attractions peculiar to the carni­ val idea are being arranged by the members the tish ponds, dart throw, cake and pie walk, base­ ball throw at the teddy bears, a fortune-telling booth, and movies lo r the young fry. Dancing will also be one of the main attrac­ tions. Home made candy, hot dogs, dder and doughnuts, and pop will be on sale during the evening. In other words, we are having a Carnival- ! Regardless o f the weather—hot, cold, wet, or dry— everyone will be comfortable, for It is to be held in the high school 1 building. The fun will begin at 7:00 p. m, and there will be no door admission. . . . . . Spooks' Hangout! Come one, come all!

AppealsCourt HearsFourCases DaringSession A battery of lawyers presented last Thursday, the appeal of Wil- berforce university, from a com­ mon pleas court decision, last April 5, which favored the State Gollege at Wilberforce, before the second district court of ap­ peals sitting in the law library of the court house in Xenia. The Wilberforce case was one of four presented to the appellate body, headed by Presiding Judge William G. Wiseman, of Dayton, and including Judges Roscoe G. Hornbeck, of London, and Fred G. Miller, of.Columbus. The court meets in Green county twice a year—in March and October. A civil suit in common pleas court forced the hearings into the law library. O’Neill Hall, 5S-year-old wom­ ens dormitory at Wilberforce, was subject of the appeal after Judge Frank L. Johnson, o f the common pleas court, had recogniz­ ed the building as state property. His ruling was givenJn an evic­ tion suit brought, by'the univer.--. anti*" crrtrren, against the State College of Education and Industrial Arts. Another case on the appeals docket involved a $4,785 damage suit, filed for the second time and ordered dismissed by Judge John­ son basis of the appeal. It was brought hy Mrs. Glive Lindamood, Dayton, against Paul Dennis near Wilmington, and seven other co­ defendants, including Sheriff Wal­ ton Spahr and Prosecutor Marcus Shoup, who is defending himself and joining with Sol Goodman, Cincinnati, R. Stanley Lucas, Springfield, and Marshall and Marshall, Xenia, -in the defense battery. The suit claimed the plaintiff’s husband, George A. Lindamood, had lost $4,285 in gambling from March 25 to Sept. 15, 1944, at the former Druids park in the north­ western section of Greene county. This amount and $500 in damages are sought in the case against Dennis. The public officials were named co-defendants because, the alleged gambling loss occurred in this county. Clyde S. Adkins Bath town­ ship^ father o f a hoy killed in a traffic accident a number of months ago, is appealing a third case, a $20,000 damage suit, after Judge Johnson directed a verdict for the defendant, Herman Betz, driver of the car which fatally in­ jured the lad. The decision was made on the premise that only the evidence fo r the plaintiff was ob­ tained in cross-examination of the defendant. Morris D. Rice, Os- horn, represents Adkins, and Betz is defended by Miller and Finney, Xenia, and Ayers, Leland and Patterson, Dayton. The final case being appealed involves party defendants in a suit brought by Home Federal Savings and Loan association, Xenia, against Ann Bruce and others. Appellants are Auguste K. and Hulda R. Koerbling against Betty Driscoll and Catherine Dunn and the case involves a com­ mon pleas ruling a note. Cincinnati Co. Is Low Bidder The W. L.

TechWinsOver Jackets inFray HereSaturday A cold, unrelenting rain and de­ feat teamed up to mar the Cedar­ ville college homecoming football game Saturday afternoon. Taking advantage of breaks, Detroit Tech scored twice in the first quarter and counted once in the final period to hand the Yel­ low Jackets their fourth defeat in five starts* 19-0. Intercepting two passes within Cedarville’s thirty-yard stripe in the first period, Tech dorve to the Jackets’ five, where halfback Bill Alford plunged over both times. Each attempt for the extra point failed and the score at the end o f the half was Tech 12, Cedarville, 0. After both teams failed to score in the third quarter, an­ other break in the final period gave the visitors from the Motor City another TD. Attempting to kick out of danger, Bob Hildreth’s punt was blocked on the ten hy guard Norbert Grenkowski, who then fell on the ball in the end zone for the score. Mike Herrick kicked the point to make it 19-0.- Crowned by Mrs: John Check, 1947 homecoming queen, Miss Carrie Cullom, a 19-year-old so­ phomore front Springfield, reigned over the festivities Saturday af­ ternoon. Heading into the home stretch of the 1948 grid season, the Ce­ darville college Yellow Jackets are slated to play the three re­ maining games on their schedule away from home. Facing possibly the toughest ordeal of the season, they take to the road Saturday for a contest with Morehead State Teachers’ college of Kentucky. Following this week’s game, Cedarville clashes with nearby Wilmington Oct. 30, then invades Indiana to tangle with Rose Poly Tech at Terre Haute on Nov. 6. “We’re facing a tough team this week and we know it,” com­ mented Coach Mendell E. Beattie. “Morehead has a good record, in­ cluding a 7-0 victory over Tennes­ see Tech and a 33-12 triumph ov­ er Georgetown.” In preparation for the Mere- head tilt, Beattie has juggled the line-up used so far this season, to shift fullback Ray McQuillan to a halfback spot, while former half­ back Gerald Billips has been con­ verted to a fullback. One o f the biggest blows suf­ fered by the Cedarville mentor is the loss for the rest of the season o f hard-running halfback Ray Thompson. A sophomore from Portsmouth, Thompson was side­ lined because of low blood pres­ sure, Beattie said. However, there was some good news in the Cedarville grid camp to offset the loss of Thompson. Returning to action after being on the injured list for several days was Gene Cultice, a 195-pound sophomore tackle from Troy. Detroit Tech: Ends—Brown, Gino. Tackles—Pinkston, Mash- eff.

The Bath district, though, faces a tremendous replacement task since nine of the twelve bus­ es used there were deemed unsat­ isfactory because they are older than ten years, which is a state regulation requiring replace­ ment. Twelve o f the fifty-seven buses used in the eleven districts which make up the county system also were given unsatisfactory labels -but all defects, it was said, can be remedied since local districts have conscientiously followed the bus-replacement program. Beavercreek township, which has bad 'the largest number of buses, also had the most found unsatisfactor—four, Silvercreek and Spring Valley township were next with two each and Ceasar- creek, Ross, Sugarcreek and Xen­ ia township each had one defect­ ive bus. Fine Three School Bus Law Violators Three motorists were given suspended $5 fines and ordered to pay court costs by. Common Pleas Judge Frank L. Johnson recently fo r passing county school buses discharging or taking on passen­ gers^ The drivers fined were David Snyder, 1106 South Limestone street, Springfield; Alfred Dye, 14 Race street, Hobble Homes, Fair- field; and Albert Praeg, 19 North Garland! avenue, Dayton! ~ '*“**•
