EDITORIAL
Frank Mueller

just what should be the pupils
attitude toward his teacher? This
Is one of the biggest problems the
public school of today encounters.
The first thing he should have is
respect. At school the teacher has
been given full authority over the
pupil and he should respect that
authority as he respects the auth
ority of his parents at home.
The school room is not a nursery
for the pupils to play in shooting
spit wads and throwing erasers)
nor is the teacher representing a
nursemaid placed there to keep
the pupils from scrapping. Each
and every pupil is sent to school
for one purpose and that is to get
an education. There is time
after school every afternoon to
play football, basketball or base
ball for the purpose of showing
his physical strength, while in the
school room is the place to show his
mental ability if he has any and
every one is born with a brain.
Science has proved that.
If the pupil shows the right at
titude in his habits of study and
recitation there is no teacher who
would not be glad to help him when
the work is too difficult. A large
percentage of the pupils grades
depend entirely upon his attitude
{ toward his teacher and his school
work.

SPORTS

The Kennewick Orange Phan-
toms emerged from another foot
ball game on the long end Of a
26-12 score. The fifth team to lose
to the Phantoms was the Touchet
Redmen, who put up a desperate
fight to win but didn't seem to
have the drive to equal the total
score of the Phantoms. Within the
first five minutes one of the Ken
newick players recovered a tumble
deep in Touchet trritory and with
a coupl of line smashes they made
the first touchdown with Walters
carrying the ball.
In the second quarter the Phan-
toms again got deep into Touchet
territory by a series of end runs.
Bill Graves, Kennewick halfback,
scored again for Kennewick by a
fast end run. This time the extra
point was made by a line buck.
The half ended 1870 in favor OF
the Orange Phantoms. ..
In the third quarter the Phan-
toms were fooled by a pass play
and were forced way back into
their territory, letting the Redmen
make their first touchdown thru
the center of the Kennewick line
The Phantoms came back at them
for another touchdown with Graves
carrying the ball. Kennison car
ried the ball thru the line for the
extra point.
In the fourth quarter Joe john
son Touchet ace quarterback, threw
a pass to one of his men who went
across the goal, raising Touchets
score to IL points. Oliver, Kenne-
wick halfback, went around end
and over the Touchet goal adding
another six points to the locals
score. ...
AS the final whistle blew the
Phantoms had the ball with about
| 2 yards to go. Kennewick's start
ing lineup was as follows: Shana.
felt and Schuster, ends; Taylor and
Wilson, tackles; Boutelle ant
, Smith, guards; Johnson, center;
Maddox, Graves and Harrington

DON'TS IN SCHOOL AND OUT

Don't race for your home room;
let the room come to you.
Don't throw things at the waste
basket; the floor is easier to hit.
Don't drink your coffee from a
saucer; it stretches your mouth.
Don't fool in the corridor at re-
cess: it's pleasanter inside, out of
the rain and cold.
Don't bend over the table at
mealtime; have the table raised to
meet your chin.
Don't attempt to meet your
friends in their respective rooms
see them in assembly or during
the music period.
Don't talk when the quiet bell
rings; you'll strain your voice to
speak louder than the sound OF
the bell.
Don't eat or MUNICH candy OF
food in class; your class activities
will interfere with your digestion
Don't be absent without a nee
essary cause; think of the anguish
and lonliness your absence brings
to the hearts of your instructors
and classmates.
Don't buy candy at the lunch
counter in the open; you won't get
much of it for yourself anyway.
Don't go by any charity boxes
without contributing; the starving
Americans are sadly in need Of
toothpicks, again.
Don't open desks which have
not been assigned to your care
you never can tell what kind OF 8
odor the lunches that some Of the
pupils bring until you open the
desk.
Don't open or close windows oil
school without permission of the
teacher; it takes more than per.
nit to bulge some Of the ancient
windows. u..-<e ...
Don't heed anything l may have
said in this column; really didn't
mean any of it.
