Milnites Join
Mob as ‘ESSPA’
Rules Syracuse
By JACKIE MANN
The motto of the nine bewildered
members of the Crimson and White
staff attending the ESS.P.A. Con-
vention in Syracuse was, “Whither
goest thou?” After moments of
torturous anxiety, Jess Barnet and
Johnny Thompson, who had bravely
arrived the -night before, “Pat”
Snyder, Sally Gaus, Nancy Bearup,
“Ozzie” Ostrander, and Barb Leslie,
who had awakened (?) with thé
birds and taken the 5:30 A.M. train,
finally met Dr. Freel, “Allie” Mes-
kil, and myself, late comers, in the
lobby of the Hotel Onondaga.
Shopping as usual
Snatching a bite to eat, we sep-
arated and went our many various
ways. Pat finally got to Flah’s and
wandered around in an utter haze;
Quote, “What an absolutely marvel-
ous store During the afternoon
we separated to attend the different
meetings held in various sections
of the two hotels.
Later, we all met to attend a
tour of the Syracuse University
Campus, and despite one of Jess's
brain storms, our bus finally got
us there. The buildings, although
old, are lovely and mellow with
tradition. Many of our group
decided then and there to put in
applications.
Feeling very collegiate, we troop-
ed over to the Frosh Dorm to see
Paxton last year’s editor of
son and White. At length
we arrived back at the hotel where
we proceeded to dress for the Ban-
quet. The food was excellent and
the speech given afterwards at the
Syracuse Hotel by Horace G. Cur-
tis, although a trifle long, was very
informative in as much as he has
had much experience on met-
ropolitan newspapers. Immediately
afterwards, there was a dance at
the Onondaga. However, we tore
back and forth from the lobby of
the Onondaga to the Music Room
of the Syracuse and back ‘again to
the Dance Floor, looking for a mis-
placed Jess., who it turned out had
been taking a tour of the hotel(?)
under the auspices of a certain
“Rosie.” What happened, Jess, did
you lose Myrtle, and Gertie on the
way?
What Next?
The next morning we awoke, hav-
ing Jeft a call for 9:30, and break-
fasted at Child’s, where “Ozzie”
inadvertantly put her coffee cream
on, her eggs, instead of the salt. It
was then discovered that my cam-
era, our prize possession, had been
left in the 5 and 10. A mad dash
back, and then through the rain to
a show, which had to be left in the
middle Our apologies to Van.
“Fats” Galore;
Quin Entertains
On the afternoon of October 30,
forty sophmores, one junior and one
senior attended the Quin Rush in
the Lounge. The Hallowe'en spirit
prevailed.
The entertainment began with the
introduction of officers by President,
Ruth Ambler. Barbara Betham,
Mistress of Ceremonies was right in
the “spirit’’ of things, and the enter-
tainment began with Do Do Ein-
stein singing a variated version of
“Black Magic.” Mary Jane Fiske
played (?) her violin, Joan Lehner
danced, and Adele Porth and Helen
Murphy provided the magical touch.
Members of the Junior Class plus
a few of the Seniors played the role
of “Dry Bones.”
The Chairman of the Committees
were as follows; Food, Glada Ap-
pleton; Decorations, Winnie Hauf;
Invitations, Barbara Leslie; and
Entertainment, Bee Bee Betham.
Thanks to our capable and husky
seniors, the “coke” arrived on time,
and we ate!! More than enough
food was eaten by all, and the re-
turning veteran gridiron stars were
given the rest.
Former Faculty
Carry On
With the opening of school on
September 23, we noted the absence
of many of its former faculty mem-
bers. Most noticable among these
was the departure of Dr. Robert W.
Frederick, who has been transferred
to State College where he is acting
under the title of Director of Teach-
ers’ Training.
Dr. Edward Cooper, formerly
head of Milne’s Commerce Depart-
ment is also with the College. In
the Math Department, Miss Mildred
Nielsen former Junior High Math-
ematics and Geometry Supervisor
is now in Des Moines, Iowa, teach-
ing at Iowa Creston High School.
Miss Ruth Sabol, head of last
year’s French Department was ma
ried early this past summer and is |
now Mrs. Carl Hauptle. At present
she is living with her husband in
Westfield, New Jersey. Mrs, Selah
Gordon, ‘the former Miss Evelyn
Wells, who was supervisor in Latin
in Milne is not teaching at the pre~
sent time and'is now residing in
Amsterdam, N. Y.
Miss Elizabeth Shaver, former
Supervisor in History, who was
retired last year, is living in Water-
viet. Miss Ruby Blaine, who sub-
stituted for Mr. Roy York, is teach-
ing music to high school students
in the state of Vermont.
Clocks for Lockers-—
“Better Late
In Deepest Sympathy!
“The Milne Student Body
acknowledges with great regret
the announcement that the Alma
Mater will close for one day on
Monday, November 11, in ob-
servance of Armistice Day.” This
message was received by the
staff of the Crimson and White
early this week and we also are
extremely touched by this un-
usual occurrence and hope sin-
cerely that the Milne students
will be able to bear up under
this strain and return to school
Tuesday morning as eager and
alive as ever.
In this period of mourning,
many students plan to remain
in their homes doing the normal
household chores, resting up for
their anxious return to Milne.
In closing this announcement,
we of the Crimson and White
have only one comment to make
on this unfortunate subject . . .
“Whopeee!!!”
Zeta Sigma Holds
Annual Soph Rush
Zeta Sigma Literary Society held
their annual rush on Thursday,
November 7, at 3:30 in the State
College Lounge. The theme if the
show was “Carnival.” The lounge
was gaily decorated with crepe
paper in the form of a circus tent.
Side shows, Bingo, a fortune tel-
ler, and other carnival attractions
took place around the room. Re-
freshments consisted of hot dogs,
pop corn, peanuts, and “coke.” Due
to the sugar shortage, there was no
pink lemonade.
The various committees were
headed by “Margie” Bookstein,
Decorations; Nancy McAllister, In-
vitations; “Jackie” Mann, Entertain-
ment; and Shirley Tainter, Foods.
All of the girls helped decorate and
clean-up.
Freel Receives Doctorate
Dr. Eugene Freel was granted his
Ph.D. this month by New York
University. He started his teaching
career in Milne as a practice teacher
while studying at State College and
last year he became a member of
the faculty as a supervisor of
English.
He started working to become a
doctor of philosophy in January
1942 with his major field in educa-
tional nd his minor in
Eng was entitled, “A
Comparative Study Between Cer
tain Principles of Modern Psychol-
ogy and the Writings of John Stein-
beck.”
Than Never’
Timely Additions
Awaited By All
After many years of waiting, the
Milne girls’ and boys’ locker rooms
will be graced by long hoped for
and desired clocks!
David Bates, president of the
Junior High Student Council, and
a committee consisting of Barbara
Dewey, Nancy Shaw, Helen Pigors,
Helen Cohen worked on the project
suggested by Mr. Bates.
The clocks were ordered from the
General Electric Company through
a local appliance store. Dr. Fisk
has promised to see that the janitors
install them as soon as possible.
Locker Rooms Benefit
There will be only two clocks, one
for each of the locker rooms. The
committee also hoped to get one for
the little gym, but found that a
guard necessary for all clocks in
a gym is also very hard to get. The
committee had hoped to get clocks
that could be attached to the bell
system of the school, but they were
too scarce and expensive.
Payment for the clocks was made
with money temporarily borrowed
from funds alloted to the council
for Junior High dances and other
parties. However, the Council
plans to replace it by having a
Junior High dance some time in
December, Selection of committees
for this dance has been left until
ate!
Promise Came True
David Bates said, “At every year’s
elections, the candidates usually
promise swimming pools, water
fountain, and “CLOCKS.” It has
always been a standing joke and
now that the war is over, so is part
of the joke. We have the clocks,
but lack sufficient funds to call
them our own, as yet. Early in
December we are going to have a
Jr. High Benefit Clock Dance.

SENIORS ? ?
Have we railed already ? Have all of us given
up in defeat so soon? Are we so discouraged
and uninterested that nothing will change our
minds? It looks that way, and it’s wrong,
terribly, terribly wrong. The other classes
needn't worry—only wonder perhaps. You've
guessed it—Seniors!!!_ This is November, and
the year is slipping by so quickly that no one
fully realizes just what is happening. There's
something wrong vitally and radically. We
haven't got a real class—just a bunch of dis-
organized groups who can’t begin to think any
other way than their own.
Yes—that’s you. It’s your fault and mine
and just everyone's. You all agree to that
but do you do anything about it. Where are
the class parties, dances, bull sessions, plays,
and just anything else that makes a Senior
something extra special?
Class meetings are just an excuse for all of
us to groan, and groan, and disagree, and
laugh, yet what's the difference? We groan
outside too, and say how awful things have
been going. Is it really too late? Are you
all so sure? Think it over, if not for your
own sake, for the sake of the'rest of us! We
need a lift, but it can’t come from one of us—
it’s got to be universal.
New Ideas Coming
The delegates to the annual ESSPA con-
vention held last week-end at Syracuse have
returned to Milne and the Crimson and White
with many ideas for new and better improve-
ments to be made in the paper. Through the
exchange of ideas and knowledge developed
by our paper and other similar school papers,
students all over the state will be able to bene-
onal meetings they at-
envrntion
of scme of these improve-
i forthcoming issues.
The Crimsen and.
Hey, kids! Take off your masks, Hallowe'en is over!
Everyone was seen wandering around at some time
or other being mildly destructive.
Five unmentionable seniors in a messed up Lincoln
(whose fault was that? Hmmm!) were seen chasing
several senior and junior girls with buckets of water.
Normabelle Singer, in the spirit of things, decided to
cause some commotion. Did you notice her bandaged
fingers? BeeBee Betham had fun at the VI Hallo-
we'en Dance with “Ed”! A group of junior fellas
dropped in on Jean Fausel. Among those there were:
Betsy Dunning, Sue Pelletier, Nat Woolfolk, Don
Miller, Bob Abernathy, Lloyd Schonbrun, Bob Leslie,
Bob Randles, Charlie McNutt, “Andy” Eppleman,
Arnie Haventhal, Don Talbot, Jack Rickles, Don
Mayer and of course Jean Fausel.
Adele Porth was another one of the more social.
or most it Was a costume party—esyecially—Jackie
Mann who was the hit of the party as a drunk.
Arlene Blum sent last week-ena in a New York
penthouse while Clayton Beach just roamed around.
Klaine Stein had a party over the week-end. Those
from Milne were Judy Traver, Lois Tewell, and Bar-
bara Tomlinson,
The sophomore class lost one of its famed “Razors”,
Alan Jones. Allie is moving to New Jersey with his
family. The seniors lost hic sister, Kamie. Dan West-
brook gave a hayride in Alan’s honor. Those having
fun were: Janet Kilby, Nancy Simmons, Marcie Arm-
strong, Nancy Shaw, Carol Boyton, Anne Carlough,
Margie North, Lea Paxton, Nancy McMann, “Cozy”
Carothers, George De Moss, Pete McDonough, Dick
Bauer, Ed Wilson, Art Walker, Lane Johnson, Jim
Clark and Dan. Good Luck, Allie and Kamie!
Another hayride was given by some of the Senior
girls and just in the nick of time (according to Johnny
Weatherbe—“Winter is just around the corner”).
Those going for the ride were Sally Grace, Herbie,
Butch Doran, Joe, Joan Whiteraft, Tom, Ozzie, Ev,
Pat Snyder, Irwin, Anne Silverman, Marty, Joan
Traver, Grant, Liz Daldorf, and Bob.
Win Hauf and Nancy Bearup along with Mae and
Frankie (they graduated last year, remember?) spent
last Saturday night exploring Hailes Cave and cook-
ing hot dogs. It was dark!
Seen at the Palace the other night were Anne Car:

The “square and round” dance turned out to be a
huge success. Swinging their partners and mopping
up the floor were: Betsy Dunning, Dick French, Jean

JOHN THOMPSON
The Senior class luminary for
this week is its able president, John
Thompson, who has proven himself
versatile in all fields.
We find that John was born on
December 17, 1929 in Indianapolis,
Indiana, After living in the capital
of the state of staunch pioneers it
was only natural for him to move to
the capital of New York State where
he himself was to pioneer the form-
ing of a new society, namely
Theseum.
One of “New Crop”
Entering Milne in the seventh
grade, as is customary to all sixth
grade graduates with foresight, John
immediately became one of the out-
standing scholars. During the
eighth grade we find John a faith-
ful reporter on the C. & W. and
an ardent member of the band. His
ninth year was spent in topping the
honor role and once again tooting
his licorice stick for the tuneful
Milne band. John’s sophomore
year was spent in the same fashion,
In a determined manner he organ-
ized the Theseum Literary Society
and was elected president in his
junior year. He was made senior
class president by his classmates
at the beginning of this year. He
can also be seen running about the
Crimson and White room upholding
his position as Associate Editor.
Per Usual
He lists his likes in this fashion:
Women (of the acceptable brand),
Syracuse, Apple Pie, and last but
not least, Eddie's.
Johnny has but one dislike and
that is “people who don’t move to
the back of the bus.”
His ideal woman must be shorter
than he, have dark hair, and answer
to Arlene. “A day never passes”
is his favorite song. He sings to all
the lovely maidens that catch his
fancy.
After his graduation from Milne,
he plans to go to R.PI, and take
Business Administration.

Milne Ends Season
With Loss to Hyde Park
Talbot Scores With
Lone Milne Tally
Milne High School was defeated
in its third game of the football
campaign by Roosevelt High School
at Hyde Park, by the score of 25-6.
The Roosevelt High gridders dis-
played a superb aerial attack, which
enabled them to win over their out-
weighed opponents. The Hyde Park
eleven passed for three of their
four touchdowns.
The Roosevelt team drew first
blood when they scored in five
plays of the opening period. The
pay-off was a 38 yard pass to a
“sleeper”. (The place-kick for the
point was blocked),
After having the ball for just
three plays, Leslie punted to the
Roosevelt 41, whence it took only
nine plays to produce the score.
The final was an off tackle play
from the Milne 32, The extra point
was converted from place-kick.
In the second quarter, with fourth
and six coming up for Roosevelt on
the Milne 29, they completed a long
pass to the right end, who raced
over the goal line untouched. The
kick for the extra point was wide.
The Hyde Park aggregation
threatened to score once again.
However, they were forced to kick
after losing 20 yards in penalties.
The half ended with Roosevelt on
the Milne 16 yard line, after an ex-
change of intercepted passes had
occured,
Leslie kicked from his own 28 to
the home team’s 38 early in the
third period. Milne once again
proved too weak for Roosevelt's
passing attack when a long pass
netted 57 yards and six more points.
A run for the point failed.
Midway in the final period, Leslie
punted to the Roosevelt 23, where
it was runback to the 32. A clip-
ping penalty against Milne put the
ball on the Roosevelt 47. After a
two yard loss they completed a pass
to a “sleeper? who was pulled
down on the Milne 23. After a five
yard loss thrown by McNeill, the
air-minded Roosevelt club tried an-
other pass. This one however, was
intercepted by Don Talbot, right
end, on his 31 yard line. With no
one near him, he raced 69 yards for
a touchdown, After Kerker had
swept the end for the point, the
play was called back because of a
penalty against Milne. Leslie then
failed on an inside tackle play.
Penalties and passes in Roose-
velt territory dominated the last
few minutes of play.
Gridiron Flashes
Leading the offensive power once
again was “Shark” Kerker . .
Milne has discovered a new punter
in the person of Bob Leslie, unior
.. The absence of “Bunk” Jarrett,
powerful little halfback, was sorely
missed. Jarrett was injured in the
scoreless Albany High game . . .
Casualties of the, Roosevelt High
game: were Ben Mendel, quarter-
back and Dick French, linesman
. .. Mendel, who played a steady,
but non-spectacular game at Q.B.,
ran into a “brick wall” on a QS.
in the third period.

Cheerleaders Plan
For New Uniforms
Last week in assembly the cheer-
leaders asked for $100 of the bud-
get, which they have received. The
money will be used to pay for both
the sweaters on the Junior sauad,
and the skirts on the Senior squad.
For this year the cheerleaders on
the Junior squad are Nancy Sim-
mons, captain, and under her Margie
Norton, Janet Kilby, June Hauf,
Barbara Leete, and “Larry” Walker.
The girls’ uniforms will be entirely
red with the red and white Milne
letter.
The Varsity squad consists of
Winnie Hauf, captain, Nancy Bea
up, Ruth Weil, “Ozzie” Ostrander,
Deanie Bearup, Doris Long and
M. J. Fiske. This year the Varsity
squad will wear White sweaters and
red flared skirts with the usual
cheerleading emblem. The skirts
will be kept by the school for
future use.
The first pep rally will be con-
ducted some time before the open-
ing basketball game.
Captain Hauf says, “If the school
is behind the cheerleaders and the
team, there will be no question as
to the success of our games.”

played hostess to several area
hockey varsities, Our team was
scheduled to play Academy, Lans-
ingburg, and Columbia High
Schools. We all assembled early
on the appointed hockey field, tense
and eager to begin, The whistle
blew, we all sprang into action and,
crash! Everyone turned around to
find Nancy Stevens, Academy, hold-
ing a hockey stick in two parts. It
seems that Gay Appleton and Nancy
collided a little too hard.
The first half was scoreless, but
at the beginning of the second half,
the Academy team pushed across
one goal. We, failing to score, lost
the game by a tally of 1-0, ‘That
marks the third game of the season
lost to Academy by the same score,
The Lansingburg and Columbia
games were hard fought. Both
games ended in a tie score of 0-0,
The only mishap was the breaking
of Gay's shin-guards, Saturday just
wasn't her day!
That Sophomore team is no longer
a team to be overlooked. Last Fri-
day they beat the Seniors in the
intramural game. Later they played
against the Varsity and held them
down to a scoreless game, By next
year our Varsity will be unbeatable,
Ah, those soccer players! They
are doing fine except for an occa-

Dear Joe and Josie Milnite:
Along with the new fall season
has come a lot of good records to
xeep all you kids singing and danc-
ing.
The Andrews Sisters, always the
ones to come across with a novelty,
have done a very cute one, “Man
Is a Brother To a Mule”, and how
true it is! The way those swinging
sisters sing this one out will really
make you sit up and take notice—
especially the male contingent!
You probably have seen “Three
Little Girls In Blue” and can easily
remember one of the many clever
songs that was in it. Jerry Colona
has done his part for the musical
world and recorded one song from
the picture, “A Farmer's Life”. The
way he sings it, it isn’t such a “very
merry life”, but it’s funny anyway!
Sammy Kaye
One song that has come into
popularity lately is “The Old Lamp-
lighter’. Sammy Kaye has re-
corded it in his best “swing and
sway” style, and produces a very
good record. This type of song is
particularly suited to Sammy Kaye
and his orchestra, as he seems to
do slow, sweet numbers better than
the fast ones. If you happen to
like this type of music particularly
well, you should know about his
radio program on Sunday after-
noons. One whole half hour of his
relaxing music blended with poetry
to help you while away a lazy
afternoon. It's really good, and it
goes so well with your Sunday din-
ner!
Another newcomer to the Hit Par-
ade is “Somewhere in the Night”.
It comes from the music-packed
movie (you guessed it!) ‘Three
Little Girls in Blue”. It's a song
with a, slightly, sad rhythm that
goes so very well with the words.
Sammy Kaye leads the list of
orchestras again to have the best
recording so far.
Dinalr Shore
Dinah Shore has recorded one of
her best to date: “Two Silhouettes”,
from the Walt Disney production,
“Make Mine Musie”. She does an
excellent job and it’s a song that
you won’t forget. The rhythm and
melody are really good! The re-
verse of this record is “That Little
Dream Got Nowhere”, which is al-
most as good,
That's all for now.
