Seniors Get First Chance to Secure
Grid Tickets
First choice seats for the Thanks- giving day game go to paid-up senior S. O. owners as they line up in the auditorium at 4:00 o’clock tomorrow, Edwin F. Steffen, athletic manager, announces. Purchasers exchange “four-bits” and their S. O.’s for the coveted ducats.
Monday, junior S. O. ticket holders may purchase their ducats at the same time, same place. On Tuesday, sophomore S. O.’s dig down in their jeans.
Non-student union holders and Student Union holders who aren’t paid up-to-date purchase tickets, Wed- nesday.
“Students who wish to sit with friends shouid line up with them. However, if a senior wishes to sit with a junior, both should purchase tickets on the junior’s day,” Mr. Steffen warns.
Students may buy only one student game ticket. Additional ones cost the full adult price of $1.00.
Saginaw, host school, will sit on the South bleachers.

Dimes, Quarters:$118,500 of’em, Handled by Treasurer Riggs During Past Eight Years
Sorting approximately $118,500 worth of nickels, dimes, and quarters within eight years is handling a lot of small change; but Miss Catherine Riggs, school treasurer, spends one hour a day recording just such pay- ments and enjoys it. She collects on an average $206.79 weekly in S. O. installments alone.
Miss Riggs hasn’t been bothered much by coin hunters this year. Last year nickels and silver dollars, espe- cially, were much sought after.
When asked if teachers—who turn in money each week — meet their deadlines promptly, she replied, “Teachers are only human; humans will make mistakes.”

By Dorothy Klatt
Midst intermittent lighting that produced frequent “blackouts,” about three times as many girls as boys reported for tryouts for “Behind the Lines,” this year’s senior play, in the auditorium, October 17.
It took all General Crannell Tolli- ver’s diplomacy to “categorize” those Garbos who couldn’t quite classify themselves as blondes or brunettes, and the General showed presence of mind under fire by allowing 24 Bern- hardts their choice of a role. Prac-

Valley Ruling Forbids Any Girl Cheerleaders, Mr. Lyttle Indicates
“Girl cheerleaders are barred by a Valley ruling made a year ago, and I won’t violate it,” declared Principal S. H. Lyttle, when asked why Sagi- naw had no girl cheerleaders.
“It was decided last year that coeds have no place ‘kicking up their heels,” Mr. Lyttle continued. “Officials even questioned our girl drum majors’ per- forming, but I explained that they were a definite part of the Drum and Bugle corps.”
“Mrs. Pat” Drafts Boys for A Cappella Jobs, and They Like It
Conscription? Yes, drafting tenors and basses for a cappella, where six boys wage a one-sided rivalry with 33 girls, might solve her dilemma, Mrs. Myrtle H. Patterson, director, be- lieves.
Though she denies any G-man tac- tics, Mrs. Patterson admits scouting the halls, listening for a male voice that could be trained for singing. Then she nabs its owner, convincing him that he would “enjoy” a cappella.
Learning songs at home and at noon practices, tenors and basses from third hour chorus class aid by singing with the choir at perform- ances.
Class members:
Bob McLeod, Arthur Ribble, Charles Richter, Nelson Stockwell, Jack Weston, Gene West, Laura Jean Barnum, Madge Brace, Patricia Brown, Dorothy Butzin, Marion Burden, Barbara Brueck, Corinne Cramton, Lois Ecarius, Virginia Erick- son, Helen Ann Fox, Shirley Goepp, Dorothy Grenkowski, Shirley Heilbronn, Josephine Hill, Bernice Jaski, Helen Kuster, Opal Lippert, Virginia Mathe- son, Olive McGill, Jean Carol MecNicoll, Arlene Nieman, Lila Miner, Lois Minnis, Gretchen Peterson, Sally Polson, Wini- fred Parker, Doris Sando, Melinda Schoenknecht, Margaret Schmieder, Jean Sloan, Helen Sperling, Mary Louise Ward, Lillian Voss.
Reserves Hold Recognition
Ceremonies at Y Today
Recognition services for 23 Girl Reserve candidates takes place at the Y.W.C.A. tonight, Miss Catherine Riggs, adviser, announces. The pur- pose of this service is to make initi- ates feel at home in their new sur- roundings and to acquaint them with the 46 active members.
SUCCEEDS MISS PALO
Miss Louise Lambertson, part-time instructor in Univeis'ty high school, Ann Arbor, succeeds Miss Bertha Palo as commercial ‘ns‘ructor in Room 15. Miss Palo resigned io accept a civil service appointment in Detroit.
Ranking on First Marking List
Ranging from Senior President to lowly sozhomo-es, 11 Trojans, less than one per cent of Saginaw’s total enrollment, merited all-A grades first marking period.
Four boys and seven girls—three seniors, four juniors, and four sopho- mores—earned the coveted recogni- tion.
Senior Prexy Jack Howell is secre- tary of National Honor society, presi- dent of Chemics and a Rifle club member. Charles Cook is a debater, stage manager for the junior tourna- ment play, and entertainment com- mitteeman for the “No Rumpus on Thanksgiving Eve” drive.
Maxine Byrne and Celeste Laux, also all-A seniors, belong to National Honor and Plorad. Maxine, Thencean treasurer, is on the debate squad, and will participate in the senior tourna- ment play.
Junior Marjorie Billmeier, another of the intelligentsia, is a Thenceanite, Latin club member, and secretary of her class, while Estella Brown belongs to the newly-organized French club. Beatrice Mehleis completes the all-A junior list.
Sophs who distinguished themselves scholastically include Barbara Force, George Lathrop, Elaine Kapplinger and Bill Coon, the latter of whom is a member of Latin club, debate squad, and Hi-Y.
19 New Marksmen Drill for First Match on November 25
Rifle club’s 19 new marksmen and three or four old ones practice daily in the girls’ gym, improving their rec- ords in anticipation of a correspond- ence match (competitor unknown as yet), on November 25.
Correspondence matches are shot on each competing school’s range, and then respective scores are tabu- lated and mailed to opposing teams for comparison. :
New members: Bruce Brandt, Ray- mond Brass, Charles Campbell, Robert Dierich, Mead Flentje, Mac Hamma- ther, Jack Howell, Tom Howell, Jim Keenan, Bob Lang, Jim Maine, Leroy Miller, Bob Meyer, Ed Morley, Arthur Schmidt, Edwin Schultz, Don Steiner, Peter Rosewig, and Ben Wall. Floyd Jessmore and Gerald Rackel are vet- erans returning.
Hills, Trojans Alternate WSAM Programs Now
Because planning and producing a weekly radio program by each school has proved too difficult a job, Arthur Hill alternates with Saginaw in pre- senting the regular Thursday evening broadcasts over station WSAM, be- ginning November 28.
Tonight’s program, scheduled for 9:30, features a student council round-table of East and West side highs.
DOWNTOWN PROGRAM CANCELLED
Monday’s sudden cloudburst re- sulted in cancellation of Saginaw’s first all-school program Armistice morning, but neit-er rain nor snow will halt the pre-Thanksgiving day pep fest at the same p ace next Wed- nesday morning, it is announced.
Though next week’s city auditorium program is incomp’ete, special em- phasis on student conduct the night before the game is expected to be made.

Draft Underclassmen?
Because of the lack of senior Clark Gables, a conscription board may be necessary to draft underclassmen for roles in the play; this will give pri- vates in the Junior ranks an oppor- tunity to win promotion in the Dra- matic Army of Saginaw.
Although realism is the aim of every director, there was some dis- cussion as to whether “blackouts”

Cop Brown Jug!
Although it was one of the slop- piest football tilts this season, the de- ciding “Little Brown Jug” game in Arthur Hill’s cornfield turned out all right (18-0) for the Saginaw Junior varsity.
The field literally was swimming in mud and water. It was surprising that icebergs didn’t form during the A eee half, for it was almost that cold.
The 18-0 score wasn’t due to any great blocking on Saginaw’s part, but rather to the fleet-footed Don Wood- ward who took double reverses over the goal line twice, and flipped a pass to Eddie Johnson to compute the other score.

“"SERVING
Crowding the Varsity bench with Junior varsity players may prove more than the mere foot- ball technique of impressing the other side with a “row to choose from” when Saginaw lines up against Arthur Hill next Thurs- day afternoon. For Saginaw has one of the best “unused” substi- tute lines in the Valley — and one of the most damaged first string teams.
Wally Pletzke and Ed Engel (first team guard and tackle, respectively) are out of play because, of major in- juries. In the backfield, Pabalis, Mc- Intyre, Savage, and Dillon have been removed from one or this season due to injuries. These will be on call at the Thanksgiving Day game.

Hey, wait a minute! In the excitement of a Valley pennant clash with Northern and the ap- proaching Lumberjack tilt, don’t overlook Pontiac’s gridweapon, that sleek sword sliding into Sag- inaw’s waning schedule, at Pon- tiac Saturday.
Pontiac is a threat. The under- dog Chiefs wallowed to a dead- lock with the stunned Hiliites, 7-7, on October 18. Then they humbled Owosso, 26-7. Will they go still further?
“It ain’t necessarily so,” even though they held the invincible Vikings to one touchdown, los- ing, 6-0.
Now, if you have recovered, dear readers, you can take up your thoughts of the Turkey Day meet, just as you left them.
Everytime Jack Spencer is in charge of the ball, the Trojan forward wall drives into enemy territory or at least that’s the way it seems. Whether or not Jack holds some supernatural power that he casts over the other team, so he may speed through the line, he won’t say. But his speed plus weight makes him a very slippery customer for the opposition.

It's the smart thing
to meet at the
College Inn
By Chuck Schirmer
No matter which Trojans are push- ed into the East-West struggle at Alumni field next Thursday, they’ll be facing a determined and powerful football team — though records belie the fact.
Thus Major Carl Nordberg recog- nizes a Lumberjack outfit for tieing Pontiac after the latter had heid Flint Northern’s Vikings to one touchdown. (That tie, by the way, doesn’t indi- cate the Hillites’ superiority over the Chiefs during that entire tilt, for pen- alties erased what might have been a crushing margin.) And perhaps that’s why Nordberg terms the two locals equal in rushing and passing, though figures prove otherwise.
Fight for Jobs
Chuck Campbell, Stewart Spyker, Russell Bishop, and Bob McDonald are applying for the job of guard, to replace Wallace Pletzke, out with a broken collarbone. Center position, too, is the object of conquest, as Co- Captain Jack Goodsell tries to break Edide Amberg’s stranglehold.
A hefty line — it averages 170 pounds—is weighted down by Guards Bud Pohlman and Ed Engel, while a fleet backfield offers 165 pounds av- erage of muscular ability. And 23 more boys are expected up from the ranks of the Junior Varsity to bolster Black and Gold defenses, after the Standish game tomorrow.
Join Varsity
The lucky boys? Don Burns, Bob Collins, Fred Hisenlord, Al Gotowka, Ed Johnson, Norm Kerns, Bill Kerri- gan, Fred Ledtke, Harold Leutritz, Bill Loth, Joe Majeski, Bob McDon- ald, Bill Prine, James Stamper, George Stierle, Erwin Waack, Don Woodward, Bob Wiecha, Gerald Zar- iske, Joe Zoobrick, John Zoobrick, Bob Myers, and Al Rokita.
With this manpower supplement, the Trojans hope to swing Pontiac aside and skim over Arthur Hill like a surfboard, providing the backfield batallion: Captain McIntyre, Lieut- enant Dillon, Sergeant Savage, Cor- poral Pabalis, and First Class Privates Spencer, Fisher, and Montemayor, all of whom direct the Trojan artillery against the Arthur Hill entrench- ment, clicks.
Assured of a confident, well-drilled force to meet the attack, Major Nord- berg slyly comments: “I expect we shall win; I’d be a poor coach if I didn’t.”

Lack of Substitutes May Hamper Hills Next Week
Six Lettermen Control Sure
e ° Positions By Den Ditz Arthur Hils testimonial — its
starting line-up for next Thursday — came freely from Head Coach Arnold Wolgast, but whether his choice had to come that wav, from iack of a cap- able string of al er: laces, hasn’t been determined.
Six returning lettermen control six berths: four in the backfield, one at right tackle, and one at right end.
Bigger and Bigger
Right end and right tackle positions get bigger and bigger on every play — for the Bigger brothers, Dick and Bob, (right tackle and right end, respectively,) have shown themselves to be capable players by their past performances. Because of the Big- gers, Arthur Hill may attempt more runs around right end than left. That is, if any rushing attacks are produced by Elton Rice, opener of the Hill air- lines.
Sparkish Rice encountered minor injuries in the Lansing Eastern game, but he is listed in the starting line-up for next week. Frank Wagar, right half; Keith Allen, quarterback; and Don Spyker, fullback, all earned their letters last year, and are exper- ienced seniors. Center position will be filled by the hefty Jack Gadd, senior, who has started every game this season, although Ted Heineman will relieve him as alternate.

The balanced line has an average weight of 160 pounds per man: Bart Valdesserri, left guard; Charles De- cator, left end, complete the Hillite wall and appear to balance the line in strength and speed. The Wolgast team has been working on a passing attack and has stressed the air waves, although the backfield is marked with speed in Fullback Don Spyker and Quarterback Keith Alen.
Alternates in the line look for punishment, for only Ed Stadnika and Dave Oeming (brother Joe a‘tended Saginaw last year) are competent left and right end reserves.
Back Field Alternates
Backfield alternates are 13 strong, with Sherman Robert and Dick Sur-
-geson the most powerful.
Undoubtedly, though, the whole Hillite Junior varsity wll be shoved into the Varsity squad, if only to keep the weak alternates warm.

Oe Mebbe, Co-Captains Aver
That convalescent cripple leaning to the leeward, cut down while defending Saginaw’s goal against Arthur Hill last Thanksgiving, and that sheepishly grinning, quiet skipper at the right combine brain and brawn to pilot Saginaw in combat "against the West-siders a week from today.
Veteran Co-Captains Jack Goodsell and Dave McIntyre both started their varsity grid careers as sophomores, albiet Dave landed a -regular berth upon enlistment, while Jack saw service on the Junior varsity previous to his induction into the regulars. Dave has been running wild for Saginaw ever since, his mounting toll over the op- pressed (Trojan opposition) climaxing in 30 points so far this year. He is the leading scorer on the team.
During Goodsell’s convalescent absence, a rival “muscled in” on his claims. Eddie Amberg, the encroacher in this case, has seen nearly all the action at this position to date. But Cap is liable to squirm into the line-up for awhile next Thursday.
In the meantime, advancing the calendar to November 21, Good- sell predicts a Trojan victory, 20-0, admitting, “Well undoubtedly sacrifice one conversion.” Dave shyly balks at committing himself on the outcome, but foresees (as could be exnected,) a Hillite disaster.

TAGES OT a Se ee oes Pen E Mary Elizabeth Hetherington Vol. 34 Nevember 14, 1940 No. 3 Exe lu sive Naiional Honor society chcoses you on basis of
scholarship, character, leadership.
With only 15% of the senior and 5% of the junior class eligible for membership, National Honor society, Saginaw's most exclusive organization, bases election to membership on one's scholarship, service, leadership, and character. Truancy or a semester grade of "E" in any subject automatically disqualifies a candidate at the elections, held after the first marking-period of the second semester.
To be of service to the school, a candidate must be ready and willing to undertake any task, large or small, and to maintain a loyal school attitude. Of course, everyone can't be a leader, but when one is called upon to assume a chairmanship or an- other minor position, a potential National Honor candidate quietly fulfills his obligation.
It's You Versus
Thanksgiving eve — the beginning of a four-day vacation, a big game in the offing, thoughts of a turkey dinner “with all the trimmings.” What better time is there to celebrate?
But for those few hours of celebration, what does one gain? Practically nothing.
What do the Trojans, as a whole, lose?
First and foremost, if pupils. ‘paint the town red,” (as they did, figuratively speaking, a year ago,) they forfeit the coopera- tion of merchants. Why shou'd businessmen advertise in the Trojans’ Student Lantern when pupils destroy property and even steal merchandise?
Secondly, if Trojans (or Lumberjacks) wage destruction on November 20, they may be denicd the maintenance of a foot- ball, basketball, baseball, or track team. What would it be like to matriculate at a sportless, no-game school, with no heroes to worship, no school yells, cheers, and songs; just a steady diet ot geometry, chemistry, Latin, history, all year. Wouldn't that be fun?
If you want outside activities (and who doesn't?) remember this if you're in the downtown area Thanksgiving. eve: a Trojan's motto is, ‘Order with Freedom and Courtesy.”
W. aterloo--
When the Chicago White Sox’ sp:ing training period rolls around at Pasadena, California, in February, Warren Martin, Saginaw’'s contribution to the baseball world, will be among the rookie pitchers seeking a place on that major league team.
Warren — liner” as the Lantern dubs him, or "Pepper" as he is known to Southern newspaper writers — earns this tryout for pitching “good ball” for the Class D team at Jones- boro, Arkansas, from April to September, where he won 12 and lost 10 out of 30 games pitched.
However, he would- n't be lcoking forward to the coming season with such anticipation had an accident in- volving his team’s bus been more sericus. Manager Johnny Mostil, transporting his play- ers to Pa-agould, Ar- kansas, was driving
: the bus as it plunged head on into a bri’ge railing. Though it was dragged 15 feet, it did not topple over into a ditch until the occupants had evacuated unscathed.
“Headliner” was “discovered” in September, 1939, while pitch- ing for Saginaw’s American Legion junior baseball league. Doug Minor, White Sox’ scout, signed him to play a post-baseball season with a minor team at a salary of $100 a month and expenses. Miss Florence Barnard, registrar, tried to persuade Warren to remain in school until after his graduation, but the call of the basekdll dia- mond was too great and he left, returnicg again this fall as a 12A student. Despite his interest in al Trojcn sports, he cannot participate in them because of his contract with the White Sox.
future Thanksgiving day games — next Wednesday night iells the tale.
Almost, that is, for Warren Martin, White Sox rookie, nearly lost his ‘ie in bridze accident.

STUDENT LANTERN We, the People
@ Student Opinion
Dear Editors:
What has happened to the order we u_ed to have in our halls? It cectainly looks as if we are taking advantaye of our sch-ol motto, "Order With Freedom and Cour- tesy,” and it seems a pity that we should jose the respect of visitors and teachers by this continual confusion.
Have we forgotten that keeping to th: right will avoid many unnecessary calam- ities; or must we have monitcrs stationed here, there, and everywhere to tell us on which side of the hall to walk? Yes, I say “walk” and not run.
Naturally we realize that the crowded conditions in our school make it difficult for us all, but that is only more reason why we should keep our halls from becoming disorderly.
It's a burden upon the teachers to have to be continually nagging at you, and you, and you, "to please walk” and to "Please not stop and talk in the middle of the halls.”
Let's see what we pupils ourselves can do about his matter. How about it, you loyal Trojans?

Qutumn "5 Treasure
You would have thought the necromancer
rain
Bedeviled us with mystic murmurs soft;
Or else the husky whisper of the night
Had charmed us from content within the house.
Bewitched or nay, our fantasies were fired,
And go would we upon this weird flight.
Ne’er faltering nor fading, drummed the
rain,
And splashed in pearly pellets on the panes.
The roads, black dripping ribbons, slithered through
The sodden soaking greenness of the earth.
The lights of tiny towns (close-clustered like
Old spicy bushes round the rail fence)
Pricked through the charcoal. swarthiness of the night.
And Huron Lake lay like a steel-still sheet,
All ridged and spattered with its ivory
foam.
And past this all and through the night we sped.
And when the lead-like curtains of the dawn
Did screen the inky darkness of the night,
The mad beat of the wizard rain had ceased.
And nature's horde of treasure round me lay
In bright chromatic colors fresh and rich.
And there ‘the land was gentle-rolling like
The rocking of a breeze-blown banner soft.
And corn stalks, withered wisps of leather, waved
Their silken tassels in the morning breeze.
The woodlands lay in leafage lovely, lush;
The painted-Indian trees tipped plumes of plum
And cinnamon and saffron to the sky.
And there among the hillocks hooded green,
And at one landing did we dream the day.
In boat of tin we lolled.upon the four
Mile stretch of water, dark and deep and cold.
Here once a lively lumber camp had lain,
And now flooded, a paradise for pike.
But grey-ghost trees and tangled brush still stand
Like haunting phantoms, forsaken by all
The thrilling choir but crazy-calling loons.
And great blue herons, long-necked, long- billed.
(Oh forest of the dead, oh slate-like trees
You are an echo of an epic past.)
Our homeward trip was twinkled with more
sights,
Milk-white chiffon mists hung over mea- dows
And Huron Lake sprawled like a silver mass
Of ashes in a lea of lovely green.
Such artistry, such beauty everywhere! Oh land of loveliness you are nature's Child petted, pampered, preened and prink-
ed with all Her precious pearls of beauty, fine and fairs:

Elvica and Pat
If football games seem more alive and peppy this year, you may credit that to an improved Drum and Bugle corps, led by seven high-stepping baton-twirlizg Tro,anettes.
As a result of their twir:iag proficiency in tryouts conducted among corps’ members in September, Elvica Butera, coached by Robert Leppien, last yeor’s drum-major, aid Patr-cia Somerville were designated as chief majorettes. Anna Mas- ica, Betty Lee Crandall, Dorothy Romanelly, Rosalie Kulak, and Bev- erly Priest, runners-up, became assistants.
In their gold breeches and fitted jackets, their white fur hats trimmed with gold plumes, and their brown riding-boots, Elvira and Pat alternate in directing the corps and iñ calling signals. The other five majorettes dress identically in white satin costumes with gold trimming, and white ski-boots. The school purchased Elvira and Pat's costume (excepting the riding-boots), while the other girls paid for their own costumes.
"Belonging to the Drum and Bugle corps demands much patience, because it is just one continuous practice day after day,” the girls claim, “and because practicing takes up most of our time, we don't participate in any clubs or athlet’c sports.”
Wit:
Only two more Thanksgivings ‘til Christmas.
Baton Twirlers diill long hours, add zip to 1940 Drum and Bugle Corps.

HOW TRUE!
In the usually bewildered sixth hour economics class, Edwin Steffen was attempting to stress the lack of identity among the endless stream of stockholders and bondholders of a corpora ion. He finally illustrated, “———— and here is Mrs. Smith. Who is she? I don't know.”
Kanter (after deep thought), "The wife of Mr. Smith!”
NEW SHOES?
What lass in Study Hall 1, second hour, held up the parade that was marching to the front for student organization tickets because she was caught in the act — with her shoes off!
After a particularly hard chemi:try test, Lawrence Laeding consoled one of his would-be-wizards with this little tale: It seems a certain student from the West named Alfonse — an All-Ame-ican candidate from the University of Minnesota — was worried over the results of a test, so he jotted this on the bottom of his paper: "Tf I flunk this, I'll have to be a cowboy.”
The paper came back marked "Ride ‘em, cowboy.”
And last week a Trojan’s excuse bore this information: “I was homesick with a sore throat.”
Imagine Lois Williams’ embarrassment when, in the course of making a report on one of Chaucer’s Canterbury tales, she read aloud to the class: "Little Hubsit had his throat slit. As he was dying, all the Christians, to celebrate his martyrdom, had a
big beer.” Lois, of course, had referred to the word bier, meaning coffin.
