Aaron Slick

Amid the sounds of hammers
and saws, the click of the type
writer, the roll of the printing ma
chine, one finds the finishing
touches of our school play, Aaron
Slick from Pumpkin Cricks, which
we are going to give ON December
13, in our auditorium, rushing to
a climax. For weeks our art
class has been making scenery,
posters, tickets, and programs for
the big event. Both the Athletic
and Dramatic Clubs have joined
to make the play a success.
Let us visit the stage where the
real play is in progress. Look who
is herei There is Aaron Slick, the
old hayseed farmer, who is Just as
slick as he looks. Over by the
table we see soar little isis Riggs"
who is always getting into trouble.
At the table we see the Widow
Berry ironing and wishing she
were a "city lady" And here is
that old villain, Merridew, with his
niece. Horrorsi Both try to slick
the slick Mr.. Slick. There is little
Clarence Green, who isn't as green
as he looks. Finally we see that
beautiful Girl in Red" who takes
Slick for a hayseed. Many enter
tainers make up an excellent cast.
But let us stop before we tell
you the story. Come and see for
yourself this plot as it unfolds.
Our Trip to Wilmington
Such familiar phrases as Good
kick Captain Pryor" or make
that penalty good" sounded over
the soccer field with more zest
than usual in the week previous to
November 18, for we were going
to play the Alfred T. DUPONT in
soccer on their own field. To US
this proved to be not only the last
game of the year, but also the
game that would prove the mettle
of our undefeated soccer team
with two years record of 13
games in a row without a loss.
Finally the great day arrived
and, despite the cold, damp wealth |
er, three carloads of determined /
boys left our campus to invade the
opponents field. After an un-
eventful trip, we arrived at the du-
Pont School, changed into our SOC
GER suits, and were ready to go.
We played exceedingly well in
all quarters, but our opponents /
proved worthy rivals A break
came in the last quarter when
Frank Cole, our center halfback,
came through and scored the first
and only goal We played de-
fensively the rest of the game. At
the end of the game we were glad
to be on top with a score of 10.
After the game we all went to
a restaurant where we ate a light
lunch. "All Quiet on The Western
Front" was showing in the movies
at nearby theatre. 1t was agreed
to attend this show 1t proved in
-eresting and thoughts about soc
GER disappeared entirely. At the
end we collected our group and
started towards the cars. Time
vas spent to get candy and we
we're glad to start home even in
The rain. The trip home was {

July seems to be circus month
y for indianapolis as three days
of next month will be devoted to
circuseS.
The first circus to come in next
month will be the Sam B. Dill
three-ring circus with Tom Mix as
the chief attraction.
This circus will play four per-
formances. The tent will be pitched
on the first day, Friday, July 6, on
the West Washington street circus
grounds.
On the following Saturday, the
Dill circus moves to the grounds on
East Tenth street near Linwood
avenue.
The next circus will be Ringing
