F'lunks I'm Rhetoric.
His freshman year. follow Ing the

certain ogre of freshmen at Illinois,

those duties that fraternity PLEDGES
undergo, whether the young men are

II had a time of it freshman year, y
said Red. That doesn't begin TO ex-
press 1t.
1t irked his soul to be ineligible for
athletics on account Of studies. That
bespoke dumbness. and Red felt he
was a fairly good student. Ineligibility
meant that he could not play on the
regular freshman basket ball teams
or track teams. He was homesick.
There was no Mrs. Dollinger to keep
him in good spirits and his dad was
sadly missing. University life Is like
a raging, remorseless torrent when
compared with the placidity of small
town high school life. The competi-
ton is stern and there seems to be a
selfish drive for honors almost like
that in post-college life.

Several times that freshman year
Grange was upon the point of quitting
1t all and returning to the peace and
quiet Of Wheaton, where he had been
happy. However. as is the case with
most boys who have played the grid
iron game, he was 80 used to stand
ing punishment and not giving 1t up
that he stuck 1t out. His athletic en-
deavors were confined to the intra:

not as strong this year as last, any

added to that, the South Bethlehem

by the fatal accident to one OF its

On the Blue and White combination.
Neither eleven has been defeated in
the series games. although Eastern's
record shows a tie game played with
Western. The Lincoln ParkerS have
yet to meet Tech, and in order to cop
the title must trounce the Manual
Trainers as we'll as hand a setback TO
Central.
Comparative scores and past per-
forma noes point to a Central victory.
The Fasteners, however, may not
have hit their stride as yet, and may
be aided by overconfidence on the
part of their adversaries.
Central has been scored on only once
during the entire season, and in the
scholastic league contests has run up
a total of 81 points in three games.
while it's goal line has not been
crossed. Eastern battled to a 6-all
deadlock with Western, and managed
to exc out a 12-to-6 decision over
Business in the season opener.
Both teams will present their full
strength in the impending tilt. Prac-
tically all players who were on the

again. Scholastic difficulties which
struck the Guyon squad last week

from the team, but played havoc with
