A new cheerfulness has found its way into the lives of the prospective football players of Lehman. It ap- pears that they are to ahve suits. As the School board has always proven willing to help the projects of the boys in every way, they desired to acquire their uniforms without calling for help from' the district. With the help of a few friends and by some sacrifice on their own part, their hopes seems about to be realized. Lehman has an abundance of prospect¥Mve players but lacks opportunity for practice. Subscription Camaign Lehman High School has just com- leted its annual campaign for sub- scriptions under the auspices of the Curtis’ Publishing Company. The cam- paign was very successful in every way and about eighty dollars was real- ized for the Athletic Association. The closing event of the drive was a party which the losing team tendered to the wiinners. Practically every student at- tended, with a number of friends, brought by various students to con- sole them in defeat. A feature of the party was Lanceford Sutton’s ability at “fanning.” It reminded the spec- tators of baseball season. The gifts included sweets to the sweet, cats to the catty, flowers to the beautiful, and nuts to the nutty. Almost everyone present had a good time. There were a few who could not keep their thoughts off the morrow, when labor must again claiim them. And there were little things, such as flat tires. Lyceum Number The Seniors are forging ahead their ticket sales, but stilil hope for considerable support from those who ‘do not buy season tickets. The pro- gram shows so much promise, however, that it seems that everyone would pre- fer to attend all the numbers. At the price of the season tickets one would not lose even though he only attended three numbers. Thursday's number was “The Novelty Trio.” Laketon Senior Advises Juniors Cites Aims and Ideals of Upper Class As Worthy of Respect of Lower Class A Senior's Message to Undergraduates “It is not the gale, but the set of the sail that determines our destination.” A saying which is very common but nevertheless very true. If there is any one not yet convinced of the truth of the senior class of Lake township high school speed onward to its goal. Most all of the present senior class has a destination in view ‘and as a ‘member of the class I wish each one success, for I nkow it is in their power to reach their desired destination. It is withthe never-failing guidance of our teachers and the kind and lov- ing friendship of our fellow students that we are conquering all harddships and holding all disappointments at bay. No matter how hard or how come all obstacles in our onward path. As a class we are true to our title of “Dignified Seniors” and in being true to this title of rank we do not look down upon our lower classmates but try to help and encourage them to make that final height in high school life which we have now obtained and [oy to mase them understand the true value of a high school education. | We are nearly ready to take up our | future duties. To some it may be a college life, but to oters a life of struggle and work, but before passing fro mthe school of our childhood days we wish to impress ourselves in the memory of all future high school stu- done and are doing right and encour- age them to reach the senior class and also leave a memory in parting. —MILDRED KOCHER, Senior Class Reporter, Lake Township High School. aad INDEPENDENTS TC PLAY POLISH ALL-STARS SUNDAY With the base ball season rapidly drawing to a close Dallas Independents will play their first game of the year this Sunday when they 'meet the fast Polish All-Stars from Ashley.

Team By 39-6 Score Local Team Make Fine Showing After Defeat of Last Week and Thrills Crowd With Fast Plays. With ideal football weather prevail- ing Dallas Borough High. School made a quick comeback Friday afternoon and downed the fast Lake Township school team by the score of 35-6. The Lake Township boyss put up a good scrap but their efforts were un- availing against the superior strength of the Dallas team which had been hardened last week in its game with the well-coached Wyoming Seminary Junior Varsity. Te first score came early in tne first period when Earl VanCampen crossed the goal line for a touchdown. A feature of the game was the super- ior kicking of Kenneth Oliver which resulted in three safeties for the Dal- las team. The Lake team was able to make but one touchdown and fail- ed to kick the goal. The Lake team was handicapped by being without regular football suits. But this also added to the difficulty of the Dallas team in tackling the ceet runners of the Lake Township backfield. The Lineup Right end—Earl VanCampen.

Sheldon Moser Makes Record ~ At Penn State Local Boy Is Champion Wrestler and Also Wins Stock Judging Con- tests. ‘Sheldon Mosier, son of Mr. and Mrs. Melvin Mosier of Dallas township, has returned to resume his studies at State College, where he achieved unusual distinction last year. Mr. Mosier entered into all of the activities of college life, making pre- eminently good in every one of them He was the champion wrestler in the 130 pound class, freshman year. He played in the college orchestra and was elected to membership in the honor fraternity, Alpha Zeta, living in the fraternity house. In the dairy judging contests Mr. Mosier ranked third in judging dairy products, ranked second in the amat- eur judging class, and finst out of a group of eighty in judging Ayreshire cattle. He also received first and sec- ond prizes in sheep. Mr. Mosier after completing the course of study provided in Dallas township schools, graduated from Coughlin High school, Wilkes-Barre. It is most unusual for a student to receive so much distintion in one year’s work at any college. It uually requires two or three years for a man to make good. This makes the local boy's achievement all: the more notable. “We predict for ‘him, in college and out of it, that success which always attends ability when’ accompanied by eanest work. —— ee ogy 7}: JUNIOR CLASS OF NOXEN HIGH SCHOOL HOLDS WIENER ROAST The junior class of Noxen high school will hold a wiener roast on Fri- day, October 12, at 8 p. m. lat the second swimming hole.
