Goodman Bulldogs
eek Win Friday
HJC Eleven Drops
Tilt To Kinds
14-6 Lost Week
Ru WILLIAM CATHEY

Holmes Junior College pigskiu-
ners. who have been struggling to no
avail in an effort to bag their initial
victory of the 1941 campaign, have
not vet abandoned hopes of sharing
), triumph and are preparing to bat
tie the versatile Senatobia aggrega-
ton on the l~atter's field Friday v e
ming.
A win over the rugged Ranger
group would give the men OF Coach
J. R. Campbell much incentive to do
greater things during the remainder
Of the campaign, but the task OF
topping the Tate county outfit will
be a very stern one. Coach Lloyd
Gully" White has virtually the same
combination that gave the Bulldogs
a terrific struggle on Branch Athle-
tic Field last year before yielding
2 to 10 and the Goodman opponents
will rule the favorites to annex the
decision.
Northwest has not beaten the Hol-
mes eleven since relations began
some years ago, but the opportunity
is very ripe for the worm to turn
this weekend. In spite of the hefty
band of Rangers who will be on the
gridiron Friday the Bulldogs have
shown noticeable improvement late
ly and if the unit can perfect con-
sistency on ~offense, they will sure
" give the lads of Coach White an
excellent. account of themselves be-
fore the ultimate outcome is deter
mined.
In the brush with Kinds Junior
College last week the Goodman crew
performed very sporadically and fail
ed to display any punch until the
final period when they collected
their only touchdown in dropping a
ID to 6 verdict. They advanced with
in the Raymond 1O-yard stripe on
several occasions but were unable to
muster a sustained attack.
The backfield, which started the
campaign as the weakest link on the
squad, is progressing creditably, with
Barnes, freshman, May, sophomore,
Charley Thomas, sophomore, show
ng their best talents last Friday ag-
ainst the Eagles of Coach "Heifer"
Stuart. If the trio can continue to
improve to any extent, the offense
lhould be much stronger. MCCULLOUGH
and Paul Haynes, both secondary
men and freshmen are being count
ed upon heavily as is Carl Hall.
More distance on punts and more
effective aerial maneuvers have been
stressed this week in addition to
better ball-hawking and protection
for the kicker as we'll as more speed
in getting off boots. The forward
wall, which has been aggressive but
not impecable enough went through
a heavy dose Of defensive assign
ments-
Coach Campbell will probably OPP
en- the clash with Reid and A. john
son as ends; Mcmillan and Edge
worth as tackles; Campbell or Shots
as center; Clark and Richards or
Crawford as guards; and C. Tho
mas, quarterback, MCCULLOUGH and
May, hafbacks, and Hall, fullback.
Reserves will include Treloar, AID
ridge, Haynes, A. Thomas, Summer
ford, Richardson, Hood, Lambert,
Wicker, Adcock and Litton.

Be A Booster

IF you work for a man, in Heavens name,
WORK for hin If he pays you wages which
supply your bread and butter, work for him;
speak well of him; stand by him and the ms
titution he represents. If put to a pinch, an
ounce of loyalty is worth a pound of clever
ness. If you must vilify and eternally dis
parage resign your position, and when
you are outside, damn to your hearts con-
tent; but as long as you are a part of the
institution do not condemn it. If you do
that you are loosening the tendrils that are
holding you to the institution and at the first
high wind that comes along, you will be up
rooted and blown away and probably will
never know the reason why"
-Elbert Hubbard.
Just as it is only common sense to work
for the interests of those who take care Of
you it is just as good common sense to- boost
the community of which you are a citizen.
If you live in a community, wherever it is,
look upon it as one of the best places in the
world and if in your heart, you know that
it isn't try and make it that way. There is
nothing more tragic than a community lack
ing in civic pride. When that is lost the grea-
test asset is gone.
Be a booster for Durant.

your face thoroughly, pat on creams,

your hair, and put your curls up for

grading them in sleeping net guar
antees longer service from the weeks

There is still debit of beauty ex-
tras to be got into the schedule But
these are not daily things, and you
can take care of them on those eve
nings when you loaf at home: pluck
ing your eyebrows, bleaching super
fluous hair, giving yourself a mani
cure, or changing your polish. If you
do your own hair, allow Yourself two
hours week to wash and set it. Or
take approximately the same amount
of time for your weekly visit to the
hairdresser.
Let us finish with couple of time
saving, temper-sparlng suggestions
about Unexpected emergencies. Fin
gertip muzzles, for instance, will keep
you from smearing the polish you
have just put on. These polish shields,
which clip on at the knuckles and
protect sticky nails, allow you free
use of your hands for other things.
Also, keep mending materials on hand
for ripped or broken nail, SO that
you can quickly make repairs to tide
you over until you can get manicure.
For this purpose there are cementing
liquids and transparent court plaster.
The cement is used with piece of
tissue as brace. The plaster is used
as an unobtrusive patch over the DAM
aged nail. Both aids are concealed
by your nail polish.

Before-Dinner Routine

kAND now you are at home again.
Make the most of it before you set
out for gala evening. Get into
hot tub before dinner and while you
are there, whisk off stale makeup,
and pat on a skin cream, leaving it
on as long as possible to ease the
strain out of your face. Scrub under
nails - both hands and feet - with
a brush, and push back cuticles with
your towel when you dry off. If your
skin looks tired or gray, put on
complexion cream the color of cheek
rouge, all over your face, from neck to
hairline. Naturally, this. color aid
must be applied sparingly; but when
used to give the faintest possible rosy
tint under your powder, it can be Won
derfully enlivening at night to
blanched or tired face. Now, do your
hair, put on your prettiest outfit,
and be the girl of leisure you envy
when the doorbell rings. Such show
ing can be made with only an hour
to invest.

competitive race to make good on a

precious little time to prepare for

The solution to this problem, of

One important aid is quick-cleans-

cleansing tissues. Other important
desk-drawer aids are hand lotion. a

Shower in the Morning

"A SHOWER takes only matter of
seconds, and you can save your lux
urious tubbings for evening when you
have more time and more need for
relaxation. So in the morning, en-
case your head in a rubber cap, and
focus the shower spray on the top of
your head and at the back of your
neck to rinse sleep from your system.
If you can stand it. an icy spray braces
the spirit and tones the flesh, but I'm
less you react favorably to cold
water, content yourself with tepid

The other sheer necessities take
only few seconds more - brushing
your teeth, using an oral an'iseptic,
bathing your eyes, and applying "our
deodorant. But allow yourself lei
surely fifteen minutes for makeup;
and now a word of warning: no matter
how we'll you have cleansed your face
the night before, freshen up your skin
with soap and water or with cleans
ing cream, before you apply the morn
ing makeup. The skin throws off
waste matter while you sleep, and is
not clean enough for fastidious needs
unless you efface this film.
After you have done your hair and
have finished dressing, take two min
utes more to rub on a hand lotion or
cream - the kind that sinks right
into the skin - and run a white
crayon under your nails. Then line
up the contents of your purse for the
day. See that you have fresh handker-
