The most valuable player awards
are made on a basis of scholarship,
sportsmanship on and off the field,
and ability as a leader. At the same
time the most valuable player award
was made to Hoke, captain’s award
was presented to Captain Harry Kee
ton.
The stars are not always invisible
in the day time. If a person stands
at the bottom of a dark hole and
looks straight up at the sky in broad
daylight, he can see the stars shin
ing brightly.
THE TAKING OF CELIA
“Such obscene veniality”
Was the pretty maid’s retort,
“Why, what, when, where—
It warn’t nothing of tha sort!”
Such impecuniosity
And overweening pride.
Your boundless overconfidence
Is what we girls deride.
Your ego and your person,
We are only passing thrills.
Why you booming, braying donkey,
C'awn’t you see we’re more than frills
“Aw say sister, I don’t getcha,
If one kiss hurts you like that,
My god what would a hug do,
I better get my hat.”
“Why cawn’t you sit and converse
Intellectualike a while
Find there’s more to life than pet
ting,
More to girls than just a smile?”
“Dawgonnit woman, looka here.
You talk like Bloody Morgan.
Emote, and rave, and rant, and
shout,
Just like a wheezy organ.”
“Oh have you read that awful book ?
The name is ‘Elmer Gantry,’
I hid it from the folks at home and
Read it in the pantry.”
“Your pretty eyes, just like the
skies,
Your throat, like plastic marble.”
In six months time we find the lad
Had so learned how to warble.
In the dark their soul communes,
And when their breath runs hot,
Its closer love, Oh closer, closer,
And not that touch me not.
And when the song the Sirens sang
Is whispered in her ear
It’s obscene veniality,
Is quite forgot I fear.
RIGHT FORMATION.
The football game was over and at
the parlor grate
A maid and long-haired youth were
lingering rather late.
They talked of goals and touch
downs, but found it rather tame,
Till Cupid put his nose-guard on and
butted in the game.
Quoth he, “It’s mighty funny if I
don’t arrange a match,
So he lined the couple up, and made
them toe the scratch.
The youth was growing nervous,
’neath the weight of new-found
bliss,
And he kinda thought the scrim
mage ought to end up with a kiss.
He charged upon the center, he
tackled left and right,
And the way they held that chair
for downs was simply out of sight.
He tried an osculation, just an ama
teur affair,
But lost it on a fumble and instead
it struck the air.
Then as he landed on his ear, he
heard the maiden say,
“You’re penalized for holding, Pete;
likewise for offside play.”
With set teeth he tried another;
this time succeeded fine,
For he scored an easy touchdown
on the crimson two-inch line.
And as they sat there by the grate,
communing soul to soul,
The parlor door swung open and
father kicked the goal.
