Strilte Down 'Organizers~! We are living in a period in which wasted spare time

is considered a sin by a group of people I shall call "the organizers." .

The leaders of "the organizers" are boo~-tramed experts on the subject of relaxation. Their followers and supporters are misguided do-gooders.

If an "organizer" spies a group of idle adolescents, middle-aged widows or decrepit oldsters merely sitting or talking, he runs.' through the .stre~ts shouting, "Idle· ness breeds corruption! Wasted time IS lost forever! Or­ganize! Organize!"

Once the problem has be~n brought to the pu~lic eye the organizers hold a meeting. S?on a plan of. act~on is devised and a multitude of> cha!JlpiOns of orgamzat10n descend upon t'he "time-wasters."

The teenagers end up at a teen club where they can perfect their pool shooting, the widows are sweet-talk~d into cake decorating classes, and the oldsters are rml· roaded into rhythm fests. . . . . " .

Although one may see no harm· m th1s orgamza­tion" at first, a look into the future could strike terror in a lazy man's heart. . . . .

With shorter working hours mdustrl'al f1rms Will be setting up organized ballteams and self-improve!ll~nt classes for men. More and more classes and societies will be set up for women. Longer school hours and more

. extra-curricular activities are in store for :youth. . . With every waking hour spent at orgamzed actiVIty,

individual thinking and planning will come to a halt. T~e individual liberties granted to us by our forefathers will be lost in a maze of organized ping-pong tourneys and glass-blowing classes.

The time to act is -now! We may let .Q_urselves be taken into a few well·chosen organized activities but we must tread carefully. Let us make sure we keep some spare time to read .. talk, or me~itate in o~d~r that we may have individual ideas and opmions. Th1s Is the only way our heritage of individualism will be kept a live.

-Darr Johnson

Complexity IGlls Conversing The fine art of conversation is becoming an increas­

ingly difficult one. Truly, it i's ~odar so dem~nding that few C'an use it well-a fact which Is often mcluded on the list of OUJ society's ills. The. 'blame tor this alleged decline in good oral commurucatl'on has been placed on television and preoccupation with the rat-rac:e, among

· other things. · The real trouble, however, is with neither of these,

but can be attributed broadly to the complexity of the modern era, a period in whi'ch there is more tD be aware of than ever before. With improved tools of research, all fields of knowledge have 'been expanded and new ·ones created and at the same time the publications media have g~own immensely increasing the opportunity to know. Also do not fo~get that we are continually in­undated with interpretations ·of the facts with whiCh we must concern ourselves.

All of this has a great impact on us teenagers, be­cause our intellectual horizons are broadening and we often demand instant comprehension of concepts which are vast and intricate. When we have realized that this is not possi:b'Ie, we must resign ourselves to an important fact: that there is a certain amount of minimal ignorance in every person, proportionate to his I.Q. and capacity to consume fact. In other words, many things we C'an-

. not help not knowing. If we pursue an interest in one area, it is at the expense •of another.

However, and this fault lies with adults too, we are often tempted tp talk through our hats on a given sub­ject with a few scraps of information and handfuls of cliches. No one likes to feel stupid, and in ow: eager­ness to express ourselves we often go too far, albeit some­what justifiably. For since the amount of knowledge required to disC'Uss something thoroughly is often stag­gering, we figure 'it best . to make use 'of whatever we have at hand, whether it be a one-sided argument, a third-hand quotation, a hackneyed epigram, a pilfered commentary, or a wild conje'Cture.

The problem, then, ' with modern conversati'on is · basica'liy that people either don't know what they're talk­ing about or else. they play it safe with small talk. ~ut we are going to participate in many widely-ranging dis­cussions in our lifetime, so we might as wen learn how to conduct ourselves in them. ·

First of all, common courtesy goes a long way in making one a go'od conversationalist. The qualities of tact, Chivalry, and restraint are always necessary. If we add to these an appreciat1on of our own scope and a determination not to I"amble beyond' it, we should begin to enj·oy. the values of verbal intercourse. Unpretentious­ness is the keynote: take off that mask, be yourself, and talk with the attitude that, while speech may be free in this country, it is valuable enough to require of the speaker a certain standard of integrity.----Jay Harvey.

Bartz, Provan Probe Team Teaching Field

Science Ends Jack Frost's Autumn Fable

One of the fables, appearing each f all, that has existed for many years is the one about Jack Frost. As young and old a like relate, Jack Frost and his magic 'brush paint the trees in a panorama of bril­liant and fantastic colors, warning everyone of the ap­proaching winter.

This legend, however, has now been branded by science as a natural phenomenon and has been explained logically and scientifically.

The array of spectacular · colors is due to the transfor· mation of the tree's starches from its leaves to it roots.

VVhen the starch leaves the leaf, it a lso takes the blu~ green coloring of the leaf, leaving a yellowish tint to the leaves. To further explain the brilliant red~, deep oranges, and purples, science states that acids from other cham~ icals which remain when the starch- flow of the leaf slows down, tint the leaves more deeply. ·

concentrati ng on ideas. trends. and movements.'' said ~lr. Provan.

After discussing the origin of history and what history is . the .'lext goal was to de­velop the main themes and com j:onents of \\' es tern ch·i!i ­zation before beg i n n i n g a study of the early ci\' ilizations.

In English. the first few days were spe.'lt discussing what the huma nities are. the human condit ions. a .general s urvey of comedy and tragedy. and the influence of one age on the next.

As for team teaching. Mrs. . Bartz commented, "I am very much in favor of it. as it gives the s tudent a be tter rounded program all together. He gets a more complete picture of the s ubject. This goes for team teaching in general."

"The major problem," she went on, "is getting together to plan material and a course of study, a..'ld then staying with the same s ubject matter at the same time. It requires a lot of planning."

One advantage in the course is that the class may meet with one teacher for two hours to catch up on material or to hear a speaker or see a program.

,on October 10, Miss Jacque­line Kramer, drama instructor, gave a ta lk on Greek Comedy. The followi.ng day, Miss Kra-mer's Drama I class presented a one-act Greek play about Hercules.

A regular speaker for the course is Andre Nitecl<:i. 'fror_n the Mott Library, who has eight planned lectures for the course on Western art.

. Mr. Provan commented, "It is hoped that this will be a basis for senior h o n o r s course." Mrs. Bartz added, "This is the kind of course for honor students and better. The material is too difficult for the average student, a nd only the better students could appreoi-

Even 'if the romance and flurry of Jack Frost's brush, busily at work .the :first night of frost, can be explained by cold, hard scientific facts, children and those with an ~magination will still see good ol' Jack Frost and his magic brush i.n . the beauty of the au-

Grand Rap~ids Hosts VisitingCheerleaders

Because cheerleaders are al­ways searching for new ideas, Holly Montgomery, Vicki To­maskovich, and Shirley With­erspoon, Varsity cheerleaders, attended a cheerleading clinic on October 13, sponsored by the Grand Rapids Junior Col­lege.

Nearly 900 girls represented about 100 different schools throughout the state. · All the girls w o r e their regulation cheerleading outfits, and the different colored out­fits made a brilliant display In the gym. Many of the squads wore slacks or bermudas in­stead of the traditional skirts.

Dr. Newton Loken, National Authority on Cheerleading at the University of Michigan,

was the ma in speaker. E vents which composed the morning ' s activities included a talk on the r o I e of cheerleaders in school programs, sportsman­ship, cheerlcading qua lifica­tions , chcerleading techniques, pep rallies, s kits, songs a nd cha nts.

Va rious squads were select­ed from the bleachers to dem­ons trate a favorite school cheer . Dr. Loken offered ti ps a nd comments concerning the executions.

Towa rd the end of the morn­ing and afternoon sessions all the cheerleaders practiced the new cheers , a nd the spir it of the g irls rocked the gym.

Reliques Club Will Initiate November 6

In addition to teachers, ad· ministrative officials, mainte· nance men, and cafeteria work­ers, there is another group of workers employed by the Board of Education at Central. These are the stockroom work· ers for biology, chemistry, and physics classes.

There is generally one stu­dent worker for each class period of the three courses.

The students who work at these jobs usually have taken the course in which stockroom they are working, or are study· lng that subject at the time. They are chosen by the teach· ers of the three classes.

Chester Henry, who along . with J oseph Foos mans the chemistry department at Cen· tral, remarked, "The workers do not receive much pay ($.25 for each period they work) , but the experience gained is yaluable. The qualities we look

Students wishing to partici­pate in this year's Thanksgiv· ing Day card section can now sign up. , The place to sign up is out­side the girls' gym during all lunch periods. Any student is eligible.

for in prospective workers can be summed up in two words­intelligence and trustworth_i· ness."

It is the responsibility of these workers to assist in ev­ery way possible, the teachers with whom they work.

They must keep the equip· ment used in experiments and class work clean and ready for use, make sure materials for experiments are at hand, and also assign students equip· ment needed for their work.

Besides strengthening their pocketbooks by working in the stockrooms, the workers often get a chance to further their education.

For example, a person work· ing in the chemistry stock­room learns much about the preparation of certain. chen'li· cals for experiments by pre· paring the ingredients himself for his teachers.

All in all, working at this job offers a good chance to make a little money with the added attraction of gaining knowledge while doing it.

Reliques Club members in­terviewed prospective mem­bers at a meeting October 22 in room 244. The four new junior members are Peggy Hyslop, Jane McGrath, Debbie McLogan. and Bob Rathbun.

The initiation meeting will take place at Darr Johnson's home November 6. Tot a 1 membership of Reliques Club. after the intaking of four jun­iors, will be 19; 12 seniors and 7 juniors .

For a week following the 1 meeting the four initiat~s will wear an "R" signifying their induction into Reliques Club.

Later this fall Reliques Club will take in six sophomores. bringing the total membership to 25. Any sophomore who is in one of Jack Howe's history classes is eligible for member­ship at that time.

Librarian Balances Books Mrs. Marlon McCrady, our

s c h o o 1 librarian, performs many tasks to make the li· brary useful and helpful to the students. Among her jobs is the selecting and ordering of books .

So far this year she has ordered about 150 books, and by the end of the school year she will have ordered about four hundred, as that is the average per year.

She selects the books with recommendations from teach­ers and .orders a few books each week during the school year.

The Boa,rd of Education pro­vides m o n e y for the books from the school budget.

Mrs. McCrady buys one to take its place. It may be either the same publication or a newer one with better in- 1

formation on the same topic.

years older. . The contest, sponsored by

the American Field Associa­tion, founded in 1940 by Mar­shall Field ill, was based on an essay centered on the idea of what the contestant felt he could do to promote interna­tional undc.>rstanding.

The outcome of this proj­ect was the boarding of a ship scheduled for Scandinavian, Asian, and European countries by 750 high school. students.

Miss Heyn plans to show

Tucked away in a little nook of Central's basement, the print shop busily turns its presses. In spite of its rather hidden location and its lack of publicity, the printing class is very important.

It is responsible for turning out some of the most neces­sary items in the hustle and bustle of a normal school day. One such item is class sched­ule change slips. Others are corrirlor permits and the deco­rative rrograms used at the school plays.

They do not print the school nl!wspaper because the print· ing presses are not adequate

,

to handle a job of this size. There are only three press­

es, and they have been here since Central was built in 1923.

Lee Sherman, print shop in­structor, teaches two classes, advanced and beginning. The advanced class does the actual printing, while the beginning class learns basic printing pro­cedures.

Some of the students are placed in jobs with local print shops, but the class does not guarantee this. Because one trained person can run several presses, the demand for skill­ed persons in this field is not too great.

When Mrs. McCrady re­moves a book from our li­brary, she takes it to the main library. One of the li·

. brarlans there places it on a shelf.

When other librarians visit the main library, they look 'over the books on this shelf. If they see a book they believe would be useful in their li­brary, they take it.

When someone loses a book,

There will be a work period from 10:00 a.m. to 12 noon, the auto show from 12 noon to 1:00 p.m., and the afternoon work period from 1 to 3:00 p.m.

A Studebaker A vanti, a new sports car, and a new sports car, and a new Buick are the cars tne group hopes to obtain for this event.

On what the boys hoped to do at the show, Charles Clark, club sponsor, commented, "We will give the cars a good look· ing over and examine their new features."

Potter Sets Strong Pace

Inexperience has embedded a large gap in the success of Centra l's Cross Country squad.

The lack of a ge is a · f actor readily seen by the

presence of four sophomores, two juniors, and only one senior on the ·Varsity team . This is . unusua l, indeed.

Barry Potter is .the one senior veteran, and has been a cons tant source of light amidst the fog. His dedication has been s trong throughout his three years . Many times, during holidays or summer· time leisure, Barry has been seen running on the track, s triv ing for t::ersonal improve· ment.

His dedication has reaped large benefits. Even in Cen­tral's losing efforts, he's plac­ed f irs t , second, or third in ever y m eet. He broke the Mid· land field r ecord by taking firs t in tha t triangular meet. He also owns another f i r s t

• place, a seco.nd spot, and two third place finishes. His sec­ond was placed in the Valley meet.

The remainder of the squad, though inexperienced, shows great promise for next year . It is conceivable tha t the next two years should be s trong ones for the harrier s - Alan Smith a.nd S teve Walker have done a good job, and could be fine senior leaders next year .

JV~s Strive For Title Goal Continuing along the cham ­

pionship trail, Central's JV football squad heads into the final weeks of the campa ign as the only undefeated team in the Valley. The "little In­dia ns" loom as the team to beat after humiliating previ­ous ly unbeaten Midland 31-0.

After their victories over Bay City Centra l, Saginaw Ar­thur Hill, Pontiac, Southwes t­ern, a nd Northern, only two teams block their path to a,., undefeated season.

Their next two encounters with Bay City Ha ndy and Saginaw hold the key. It's a f eather in any team's cap that halts an undefeated team a nd the boys can't afford to le t up.

Coaches Dave Brines' and J ack Ewing's squad have fea­tured striking power (184 points, . 36.8 scoring a verage)

· and a stingy defense which has allowed only 24 points to fash· ion their impressive record.

Coach Bob Leach of the var­s ity can be assured of help in the ensuing seasons a s the ex-

perience a nd winning habit of the J V's moves to next fa ll's vars ity squad.

Matmen Face Tough Season

Our wres tling team , vastly ·improved in the past two years , faces one of the tough­est schedules ever this mat season.

Bolstered by a r eturning rrew cf eight lettermen a nd m any fine sophomores , out­looks for the coming season seem to be good.

However. Coach Dea n Lud­wig sa id. "The entire s ta te pro­gram has greatly improved and we face a r eal tough task in continuing our advance· ment."

The returning lettermen are co-captains Tom Bucka lew and Elehue Brunson. Also includ­ed in this g roup a re Bob Bu­ford, Larry Dobler , Ira Ed­wards, J oe Eufinger, Lynn Schram, and Leroy Washing­ton.

Strong Performers Bolster Line

Ends Feature Depth; Depro Mans Center

Strength at one position is always a valuable asset to a football team. · Head Football Coach Bob Leach has one of these assets in his ends.

In addition to returning lettermen seniors Bob Langenau and Dick Beal and junior Mel Summers, Leach hes at least five other solid performers at this position.

Langenau and Summers have gone both ways at the line's extremities in all but one game this year. In the Bay City Central encounter Summers was injured and Senior Bob Schmelzer · on o~ense and junior Jim Richards on defense s~;elled him. ·

In addition to his strong, steady play at end, Langenau also is responsible for all Tribe kicking chores.

Summers, an exceedingly strong athlete, blocks well and his more than adequate defensive play leaves little to be desired. He proved his fine pass catching ability in the Midland game by pulling in five tosses, good for 103 yards.

Besides Richards and Schmelzer, senior Leroy Washing· ton and juniors Glen Bivins and Jim Anderson are other strong reserves, ready to step in If opportunity presents itself.

All in all, Leach stated, "This is the finest group of ends we've ever had."

* * • • To say Captain Mike Der.ro has been a mainstay at center

would be putting it mildly. His early-soiled uniform in each game tells the story of De9ro's hard play.

Depro, who did not receive his first relief of the year until the Sagfnaw Arthur Hill game cf October 12, is regarded by Leach as "one of the finest centers we've ever had" and as a "silent leader who leads by example."

His strong defensive play at linebacker puts Depro in a class with former ·central great Jim Copeland who was co-cap­tain of the 1960 Central team.

Behind Depro is hard working junior John Euflnger. End and center have been strong positions for the Tribe

this season. With their fine personnel and excellent coaching from End Coach Carl Krieger and Center and Linebacker Coach Dean Ludwig they should continue to be.

Can Gridders Get Together? B. C. Handy May Tell Story

Marriage and football have little in common. There Is, however, one trait which Is requisite if two people bound by matrimony or the offensive and defensive squads of a foot­ball team hope to meet with success. This Indispensable in­gredient is togetherness. ,

Possibly a shot of "'together­ness serum" would be of aid to Central's football team which currently sports a 2·2-1 Saginaw Valley mark.

In only two games this year have the defensive and offen­sive units of the Tribe grid machine worked equally well. During the first part of the season, the defense seemed ample but the offense was of. ten unable to get off Its fee t. Jn the Midland game of Octo­ber 19, the Indian offense fi ­nally opened up only to be let down by the defense. Tonight'~ 8 :00 p.m. ba ttle

with Bay City Handy, defend­ing state champion, at Bay City wilJ demand that the Tribe add another to its list of games in which both offense and defense click.

In the Southwestern game of September 21 and the Sag­inaw Arthur Hill encounter of October 13, both units perform­ed well simultaneously.

IN BOTH CONTESTS Cen-

tral gridders scored three touchdowns while a llowing only one.

Against Arthur Hill quarter · back Bob Holec made his firs t splash 1n the s tarting line-up a big one. He completed two of three passes, good for 3x yards, and his well timed la t­er al to Sherm Wall ace at th <> Hilite 's 43 yard s tripe in the fourth quarter broke the s leek halfback a way for a touch­down ru·1.

Probably the best exa mple of a good defense - poor offense s howl :-> tr came in the P :m tiac conte:,t of September H. Trib~ defenders were ou!stan rl­ing ll" holrling P ontiac to ~ev. en pvints but Pontiac tackler-; proved jus t as valuabl~ ir. hold­ing t~e Ind ia ns to the sa me score.

In the 32-21 loss to Mit.lli! l"d Tribe oflt!nstve thrus ts put across the greatest number o f points Central has scored in one :;::1mc. The defense a Uow­ed Chemic hacks a tota l o f 262 yard:; rushing, also establis h­ing a high .!or the season.

Bob Leach. head grid men­tor, commenting on this con­test, rema rked, "A few major hrcakdowns on defense, un­timely fumbl es, a nd three l 5 yard pena lt ies hurt us greatly in this game."

The passing of senior J on Skinner and Holec were the big g uns as Indian o.Uensive hraves went on the wa rpa th in this contl!s t. Skinner com­ple ted six o f e ight pac;ses for 57 yards w hile B oice's th r<.-e for !>iX tossing was good C0r ~:> 1 markers.

Senior fullback Marvin Ma· bry's 60 yards in s ix carries was another reason for the offensive ups urge In the :'vfid­lancl encounter.

The Wildcats f rom Bay City are still s marting from forfeit· ing three games because of us ing an ineligible player. Las t week they took their an­ger ou t on a band of Colts from the southwest of F1int. adm inister ing them a 19-0 de­feat. This week a tribe o f Indians mus t put this Wildcat w1 a th under rontrol.

Seniors Joe Peacock a n d Manuel Patrick, who are also still tossing around the pig­skin, are returning varsity re­serve award winners.

Commenting · on his team's prospects this year, Dowdy replied, "We have a nicely­balanced ball team this year. I am sure that with a big effort from the 'boys and loyal support from the student body. We will have a team everyone will be proud of."

THE CAGE 1\IENTOR also has a large group of bright prospects coming up from last year's JV's . Among these are Ken Baker, Jim Blight, Ma c­Henry Johnson, Bob Schmelz­er, John Summers , Ernie Van Buren, and Bill Wooten.

Height, another p r o b 1 em paramount in last year's cam­paign, should not give any sig­nificant troubles this year.

Besides Snider , Long, and Mel Summers, Blight, 6'3%", Johnson, 6'3%", and Van Buren, 6'1", promise to give ~he b a s k e t ·b a 11 e r s added s t r e n g t h in clearing the boards.

A newcomer to this year's cagers is junior Richard Bis­bing, a transfer from North­ern. Bisbing played JV ball for the Vikings last season.

This year~s basketball team definitely has strong potential. It is now the task of these boys, with the able guidance of t~eir coach,· to develop their talents.
