Half-time score was six to nothing with Mill City driving toward the Gervais goal from the seven-yard line. Bob Shelton, letterman guard, played an outstand ing game, falling on two fumbles and intercepting a pass. The freshmen feted the sophomore class Friday night in a return bout, that is, party. Only those upper- classmen attended who were invited by a “freshie”. Several “get- acquainted” games and dances were played before the party started in earnest. Cake and punch was served during an intermission. A student body meeting was held Wednesday. Various members of the student council were sworn in who had not taken the oath of office in the previous meetings. Twirp season was brought up. Twirp means “The Woman Is Requested to Pay.” Dur ing this season the girls foot the bills, ask for dates, and generally do what is considered the boy’s part of the deal. The boys, however, are scrounged, because they supposedly can not re fuse a date unless they wish to pay a fifty-cent fine for “delay of the game.” This means the poor guy has to pay four bits just to go deer hunting, and it marks the first time a hunter has ever got paid by the quarry for refusing to be caught. Such is life? And this phenomenal “dear” has two legs. Remember girls, this ain’t doe season! Twirp season starts Friday night and ends Saturday night the 20th of October. So girls, you have nine big days of shopping left before the end of twirp season. After the Jefferson game, Friday night, the GAA and the Letterman’s club are throwing a chili feed and sock dance. Student body members of both schools are invited. 49c Football schedule for 1 City is as follows: VISITORS HOME TEAM Friday, Oct. 1 12 Jefferson ♦Mill City (night game) I Friday, Oct. 19 ♦Sublimity (afternoon) Mill City Thursday, Oct. 25 Mill City (night) Sweet Home "B” Friday, Nov. 2 Philomath Mill City SAVE at Girod’s AT STAYTON i THIS IS THE VERY YOU and !
