It be far better to change it first. Tney

THE INITIATION

When in the course of the Shoshone
High Schools history has there been
an initiation to compare with the upper
classmates initiation of the Freshmen
this year. Forewarned is forearmed,
it has been said. Yet the luridly
decorated blackboards of the Assembly
Hall Friday afternoon must have sent
such a chill into the hearts of the
timid Freshmen that they could find
no adequate preparation than that of
much noisy stamping and yelling to
their credit, however, that as a class
they took their medicine like good
sports and laughed as heartily as their
prosecutors; though several of the
boys. either from bashfulness or
timidity, left the initiation just as it
was about to begin.
A little after seven Friday night the
Upperciassmen threw open the doors
and in poured a torrent of freshmen

Cling. against everything and every

the newest thing in hair dressing and
face paint running him a close second.
When most of the other freshmen had
been dressed back side to, their lovely
locks skinned back to reveal their ears
and other long forgotten parts of their
faces. when the boys were decorated
with green bows on their ears and
were otherwise adorned both enemy
and victim sat down in the assembly
han to enjoy an interesting and highly
instructive program by the freshmen.
Bv the time some half dozen boys
and girls had received the Order of
Black Molasses and had then fought
valiantly for a penny in a pan of flour
the ice was broken and everyone felt
quite friendly toward everyone else.
Needless to say. no one would have

though this is the first game OF ths
season for Shoshone and practically
the first game ever played by men,
bers of the team considering this they
showed up well against the more ex-
perienced team After the first hall
Shoshone went on the field and out
played Wendell in almost every dep
artment of the game. In the third
quarter while the bali was in Shoshon
territory Chas Jones kicked on the
fourth down, the ball not passing the
mediately took the ball across Sho-
shone line for a supposedly touch
down. This under no consideration is
considered a touchdown and does not
count. the ball not having crossed the
line Of scrimmage. This limits Wen
dell to two touchdowns which were
made in the first half of play.
The Shoshone lineup follows: Mills
Center: Schuppenies, Jones, guards;
Crothers. Burks. Tackles, Pagoga
Fitzpatrick, Ends: Chas. Jones, Full
back: Ryan, Probart, Halves; Had
dock. Quarter. Fitzpatrick was pulled
out at end and replaced by Probart at
half in the first half Of game. Mar
shall Jones replaced Fitzpatrick at end,
L. Warren replaced Schuppenies at
Guard. Carr replaced Jone at Guard
and Serpa replaced Warren.
Chas. Jones was easily the star Of
the game both in offense and defense
He made consisten& 'Fardage when
called on and repeatedly broke thru
the Wendell line to stop play be-
fore it was we'll started. Ryan also
starred. He broke through about
everytime when called on and tackle d
consistently. Playing safely through
out the game he seemed TO pick out
the exact spot where ball was going
and was there eVefytlIne 70 tdhe TIE
