Pirates Will Play Wapakoneta Here
Friday; Lose To St. Marys, 34-13

Bluffton High gridders will en-
deavor to recover from last weeks
stunning 34 to 13 upset suffered at
st. Marys in homecoming contest
with Wapakoneta this Thursday
night at the Bluffton stadium.
1t will be no easy assignment for
the Pirates, however, for Wapakon-
eta, previously doormat for other
Western Buckeye league teams, gave
Van Vert it's first real scare of the
season last week before the Cougars
eked out 21 to 10 victory.
The same Van Vert team earlier
had defeated crippled Bluffton
team, DO to IL, and this weeks as
signment will not be the easy snap
for the locals which had been en-
visioned earlier in the season.
In the game at st. Marys last
Friday, the Roughriders handed
Bluffton its third WBL loss, with a

touchdown to knot the count on a
pass from Garmatter to Bracy. The
Roughriders countered with another
tally, however, to take 13 to 7
lead at the close of the first quarter,
and then went on to win handily.
The final Bluffton I'D came late
in the fourth quarter, after St.
Marys had scored once in the sec
ond, again in the third and a fifth
time in the fourth. A long run gave
Bluffton its other tally when Don
Triplehorn broke loose on a 40-yard
scoring jaunt.
This weeks tilt with Wapakoneta
will mark the last WBL contest of
the season for the locals. In league
play the Pirates have victories over
Kenton and Celina, and have lost to
Bellefontaine, Van Vert and st.
Marys.
The defeat last Friday night drop
ped the Bluffton team to fourth
place in the loop, but victory over
Wapakoneta this week could give
the Pirates chance to better their
showing by giving them 500 rec
ord in loop competition.

The Girl Who Would Always Have Every
thing smiled and said, "Well, no, but it's nice
of you to offer" She was not captivated or
offended, but only amused, all as DR.. Toden-
tanz had foreseen.
But the professor was intrigued enough by
job to look for her later on the school grounds.
He found her starting to ride away on shiny
new bicycle.
"Ah," DR.. Todentanz said, "a present.

why said didn't want bicycle. because
now I've got one"
Nor far away, DR.. Todentanz saw Earnest
Quixote and The Girl Who Would Always
Have Everything on bench. Earnest Quix-
ote was talking with great seriousness. Now
the lame apology, DR.. Todentanz thought,
the embarrassed silence, and the next stop
would be his swift consignment to outer dark
ness, as far as the girl was concerned.
Gould it be-" DR.. Todentanz suggested
craftily, that somebody gave you that bicy-
Gle for saying what you said today about
wanting mother?"

''But it was gift from someone, eh?'

at his unworldliness. Her" The End

in the faculty restaurant and several hours
night in local laundry. DR.. Todentanz gave
him the title of Earnest Quixote.
Earnest Quixote would sooner or later
attempt some stumbling overture toward The
Girl Who Would Always Have Everything,
but it would fail. 1t would win him nothing
but embarrassment, and afterward Big Pupil
and The Girl Who Would Always Have
Everything would laugh about it together
and then forget the incident completely.
As the first weeks of the term passed, DR..
Todentanz was pleased to see his predictions
working out with their usual accuracy.
Big Pupil seized his opportunity to shine
in the eyes of The Girl Who Would Always
Have Everything on an occasion when the
professor had turned some remark of hers
with a particularly witty reply. The class
guffawed, and Dr. Todentanz got lost for
time in lengthy pause of self-appreciation,
for he enjoyed savoring these small triumphs.
The silence had stretched into minute or
so when Big Pupil said impulsively, "Am
writing too fast for you, Professor"
DR. TODENTANZ was able to forgive him be-
cause he understood Big Pupils intention of
presenting himself, by that wisecrack. as the
gallant defender of The Girl Who Would
Always Have Everything. He was not sur
prised to see them later that day walking
under the elms holding hands,
Earnest Quixote was some time longer in
building up to his forlorn pitch. 1t was an
extravagant gesture, dramatic in a desperate
way and unhappily corny, much as DR..
Todentanz had anticipated.

1t took place on the afternoon that Psy-
chology l08 spent in the college elementary
school, studying the children there. A fourth
grade teacher, asking her charges to tell the
people what they wanted most in all the
world, called upon the dark-eyed little girl,
Jeanne, who was Earnest Quixote's child of
charity. 1t developed that Jeanne did not
want puppy dog or a kitty cat or even
bicycle which last DR.. Todentanz knew to be
a red-hot lie, as Jeanne had admired his own
bike with wistful longing on more than one
occasion.
HE teacher said, Then won't you tell us
what it is you do want, dear? There must be
something you secretly wish for above every
thing else" -.
II want mother to 60 with my father"
Jeanne said She pointed at Earnest Quixote.
That's my father there. only not really, but
he's sort of my father and he's very nice"
Earnest Quixote turned red.
81 see," the teacher said. "And you want
a mother, too"
II want one awfully bad," Jeanne said
"But want nice one. Maybe one like her."
This time Jeanne pointed at The Girl Who
Would Always Have Everything.
The class giggled and Big Pupil grinned
patronizingly and Earnest Quixote turned
white.
''She looks like she'd 60 good with my
father" Jeanne said. 81 think she'd go very
well with him."
The class howled happily, the teacher dis
missed Jeanne, and DR.. Todentanz declared
the days session at an end.

nR. TODENTANZ elevated himself time or
IL two on his toes and fixed his eyes on the
paneled ceiling in his favorite lecture-room
attitude. He said, ITO the superior intellect
the mass man is always utterly predictable.
That is one of the basic principles of my
teaching"
The class opened notebooks and thirty
sweatered backs bent to scribble.
DR.. Todentanz was thinking, as he often
did, that the undergraduates before him rep
resented the mass man and he himself, natu-
rally, the superior intellect. He was enter
tanning himself by establishing even this
early in the term, the utter predictability of
each of them. The two boys and the blonde
girl in the center of the front row, for example:
there was pattern to be read at glance.
The girl was extraordinarily pretty. She
had nice smile and sea-blue eyes Tin which,
DR.. Todentanz thought poetically, Ariel
would be wont to sparkle). Her casual skirt
and cardigan had probably cost more than an
associate professor made in six weeks. She
was the young who would inherit the earth
and find it delightful. Dr. Todentanz thought
of her, almost without irony, as The Girl Who
Would Always Have Everything.
i HE young man on her right was clearly
big-man-on-the-campu type, fraternity presi-
dent, varsity halfback, and the owner of
yellow convertible. DR.. Todentanz mentally
named him Big Pupil. 1t was plain that Big
Pupil was actively interested in promoting
close acquaintance with The Girl Who Would
Always Have Everything. 1t was utterly pre-
dictable that, being Big Pupil, he would man.
age this small matter with ease and dispatch.
The lanky student on the left of The Girl
Who Would Always Have Everything was
also deep in dreams of her, DR.. Todentanz
had observed, but in his case prediction need
not hesitate in awarding quick blank. A
grim lad, grinding out the last year of his GI
degree, he was hopelessly distant from the
Greek-letter life of Big Pupil and The Girl
Who Would Always Have Everything. He
was certain to remain disappointed wor
shipper from afar.
He was travelling under the added handicap,
