On the School Scene Bv Norma Smith Indian Sumim r While reading the current '=suz of Holiday magarin". tp 'ound an interesting article in re s a ri to Indian Summer. The author, Donald Peattie, opened his writ ing with the statement that our fall is the finest in the world, and the most truly native season we have; that Indian Summer is one of fall’s bright riddles. Many people perhaps do not realize how the term “Indian Summer” originated. The author relates th a t Indian Summer date.-, hack to an annual practice of our native Americans. During fall season, when game was fa t test, the Indians liked to hunt to obtain meat and supplies for their families fo r the long win t e r season. In order to get the game to come- out^of hiding, the red men would set fire to the un derbrush and pariries. Gradually th e smoke and fire spread east ward, giving rise to the smotcy, hazy atmosphere now called In dian Summer. Although the Indians as a race are practically gone, Indian Sum mer still remains with its beau tiful colors created by the early frosts—as it were, a last fling of summer before making her exit. Often at this season of the year, smoke from forest fires in the north fills the air with a hazy screen, bringing a reminder to us of the early red men who gx -c the name to this season of the year. Waffle and Sausage Supper Important Event of Week Friday, October 13, is the day when all bad luclc is supposed to come along! But Cedarvilie High band says that’s not true, ’cause Friday is the day the Band will have a big Waffle-Sausage Sup per, which will be served to the public from 6:30 to 8:00 p. m. in the cafeteria. Following the supper, there will be an hour of entertainment ip the auditorium furnished by some of our talented band mem bers. Please don’t miss it! Freshmen Initiation Event of Indian Summer In keeping with the season, the sophomores chose Indian names and customs to carry out their initiation of the freshmen. Typical names given to the ninth graders for the day were: Black Cloud, Little Arrow, Little Oak, Little Fox, Tee-pee, and Bain Cloud. For the benefit "of those unfor tunate individuals who were not present for the austere occasion, let’s picture the beautiful girls, dressed according to sophomore dictates, with burlap-sack pants; with 12 ” shields across their blouses on which were inscribed their names; shoes with no socks; hair neatly divided in two braids and tied with 2 ” ribbon and brightly colored feather. Their make-up was placed with great care on the nose; three marks crossed the cheek from the nose, extending two inches; and for convenience their hooks were carried in buckets on their backs. To complete this attractive pic ture, a big, juicy onion was tie ! neatly around the neck. The boys were wearing burlap shirts and skirts, with shield pam&mlates similar to the girls; grepija their necks they had beads pud n big,Juicy onion. They wore the hair ip pin curls, and car ried doll —babies in a bucket on. tli£ir backs, th§ girls and boys carried 0* ts Boxes fo r tom-terns. Kovel entertainment was pro vided during an assembly Wed nesday afternoon for the high school pupils. To start the assembly off right, the freshmen entered the auditorium crawling backward on their hands: and knees. Highlights of the program were an Indian Wedding, diffi cult races of various description; a special initiation of new facul ty members; and the most hilar ious stunt featured four Indian braves feeding each other roasted marshmallows having paper in them. To teach the freshmen the at tribute of politeness, they were requited to say “How” and bow to every sophomore they met. School Fall Fair Held Last Week Cedarvilie chapters, of the FFA and FHA sponsored their seven th fall fair a t the school building on Friday, October 6 . The large display in the school gymnasium included SCO exhibits of excellent merit. Pupils receiv ing first and second prizes for the greatest number of entries were: Stanley Abels, $5.00, ana Dale Stover, $3.00. The climaxing event of the ev ening was the crowning fo of FFA and FHA king and queen. Martha Purdin was crowned queen, and her attendants were Janice Hop kins, Aileen Williamson, and My rtle Vest. Stanley Abies was crowned king, and his attendant was Jimmy Turnbull. Following this ceremony, re freshments were served in the cafeteria by FHA and FFA mem bers, direced by Mrs. Marshall, home ec teacher. ON THE SPORT SCENE Ross vs. Cedarvilie Wednesday, Ocober 4, Ross de feated the Indians 5 to 4, in a very close ball game. The Pan thers scored in the first inning to take the lead 2 to 0 , in while in the third, Cedarvilie tied the Panthers, and then took the lead in the fourth, making the score 4 to 2 in their favor. In the last of the sixth, Ross scored three more rung to put them ahead 5 to 4, which score the Indians fail ed to match. Cedarvilie played Bowersville on Friday, October 6 . In this one sided encounter the Indians took the lead and: kept it xmtil the end, defeating Bowersville to 0 . Other League Flay Jamestown met the Golden Eagles at Bellbrook on Saturday morning' October 7. This game was of interest generally, as it was to be a deciding factor in county league standing. If Jamestown came out ahead, there would be a playoff for first place, and the losing team would take second place; but in case Jamestown -lost, there would have to be play-off for second place, with three teams tied. The Eagles defeated Silvercreek 16 .to 4, the game being quite an upset for Jamestown. As a result, Spring Valley took first place, and Silvercreek has a chance for second place, along with Cedar vilie and Ross. The winner of this berth will accompany t.i£ Spartans te the district tourna ment.

Beattie must have had' the “Wesley Fesler” blues Friday night as be watched his team lose the lead several times, and finally the game—chiefly because ?i . an inadequate pass defense. The same weakness caused O h i o State’s loss to Southern Metho dist last week. The victory was- especially sweet for Bluffton fans, as it was their f ir s t,gridiron win in two years. The Beavers give a great deal of credit for the win to their new coach, .Kenneth’ Mast, in M s'first coaching job. F o r muqfi of the game, ’ t appeared as if Darrell Coe’s talented toe would spell the dif ference between victory and de feat for the Yellow. Jackets. Despite several bad passes from - center, Coe split the uprights each time. Homer Burton’s 36- . yard off-tackle run gave C. C. an early lead. Bill Gleason hen returned the kickoff 84 yards.to pay dirt, but the TD was called back part way because of B. G .. clipping. Charlie “Choo Choo” Spencer then reeled off a 29- yard run, and scored from the 7 early in the second quarter. The conversion attempt failed, to give CG a 7-6 lead at that time. Gleason and Spencer, two who gave the Jackets a bad time a l l . evening, combined with a pass and run totaling 65 yards to put the Beavers ahead. Spencer’s conversion made it 13-7. Lloyd French climaxed a C. C. scoring drive with a TD thrust from the one in the third, and Coe converted, putting our boys ahead again, 14-13. Then came another Gleason pass, with the Jacket safety man in front of Spencer, who took th e :pigskin all alone and jogged over un touched. The play covered 65 yards. Choo Choo converted to make it 20-14, Bluffton. The Jackets' couldn’t be denied as they drove relentlessly to a 21-20 lead in the fourth quar ter, Ray Pater finally lugging It over from the three. Coe’s kick was good. Cedarvilie just could not stop the Gleason-to- Spencer aerial attack ..as the Beavers marched down the grid iron, Dick Rosenberger taking the TD pass from Gleason with less than three minutes left. The waning moments- of the ’■personal fouls," wirmir•permitted' the Beavers to make their last kick off from the Cedarvilie 45! Quarterback Jim Wagner was injured in the first half; sub Ed Waite did a good job of master-. minding the Jackets the second half. Before the game, the Beaver fans were moaning over the ab sence of two stars-—A 1 1 i s o n, with a broken jaW.rjiSd Frost, on honeymoon for second straight game.. -(We^ couldn’t understand how any-college can allow a student, to take -1 time off for a honeymoon iin the midst of a 'semester.
