CHE DISMISSAL
Another day has passed and gone, Its lessons all are o'er ; The students now from school room cares Are homeward bound once more.
Their algebra forgotten is, Euclid and Caesar, too. And to all the other pussling things Again they bid adieu.
Whither away so fast, my friends? Why do you look so gay? Has life and love more charms elsewhere, Than you've found in school today?
In glad converse they chatter away, Nor heed my questionaire, Till the music of their voices Has vanished on the air.
Life has tasks for them, we know, Beyond tomorrow's sun; So may the joys of the present glow Till tomorrow's work is done.

HE SCHOOL year of 1915-1916, with its academic - tasks, both pleasant and otherwise, but mostly pleasant, has come to a close. Our good old ship, the Greenfield High School, bearing a precious cargo of human freight, after a peaceful voyage of more than eight months, has reached port.
She had on her passenger list a total of two hundred and thir- teen-one hundred twelve girls and one hundred one boys, a greater number than she has ever carried on any previous trip and twenty-three more than she had listed a year ago.
Eigthy-eight of this number had never sailed with her be- fore, forty-five made their second voyage this year, fifty-one count this year their third trip, and there are twenty-three who came into port with her this time who say that it is their fourth and last voyage. There were six on the ship who had made four previous sailings.
The age of the passengers ranged from thirteen to twenty- one, inclusive. Eighty-two of the number were neither tardy nor absent from any function on the vessel.

HE G. H. S. foot ball team was coached through a successful season this year by two former students of G. H. S. of foot ball fame, who live in this city. They are: Ralph Arnold, who has played with Butler, Ohio State and Chicago; and Clare Fletcher, who is a former star of this school and later of DePauw. Our team met only one defeat and succeeded in win- ning the Championship of Central Indiana.

ROBERT SPANGLER, '14, '15-
"Bob" was captain of the team. He says: "I am glad to have the honor of being the captain of such a successful squad." "Spang" quit quarter early in the season on account of signal hardships and played remainder of year at end.
FLOYD MANNON, '14, '15-
"Bud," our six-foot center, was always on the lookout. His control of the ball was perfect all season. "Bud" also had the honor of getting on Hez Clark's all-State eleven.
ASA GOODWIN, '14, '15-
"Asie" played only two games this year, but he was a great help to the line. He was good in any position.
DONALD HILT, '12, '14, '15-
"Hiltie" is a veteran player. He played a fast and steady game all year and made a reputation at two positions, first at half-back and then at tackle.
PAUL RHOADARMER, '14, '15-
"Rhoadie" started last season with bad luck, as he met with an accident in practice, but this year he had to make up for lost time and did so successfully at tackle.
HOWARD SCOTT, '15 --
"Scottie," our little 120-pound end, was as fast as a streak. He played a fast game and was always fighting until the whis- tle blew.
PAUL STRONG, '15-
"Strongie" was the big man on our team this year. His drop kick won us the Sheridan game, and his punts were a feature in every game. He landed full-back position on the Northern All-State Eleven, picked by Coach Murray, of East Chicago.
WARREN MANNON, '12, '14, '15-
"Whitie" says it is much easier to talk some teams out of a game than to outplay them. He was master of the forward pass and played a good game at half all year.
JOHN LOEHR, '15-
"Tick," our little quarter, piloted the team through a suc- cessful season. He kept them hopping all the time and he gave much spirit to the eleven.

CAMARADERIE
HARRY WEEDER, '15-
"Pete" was the boy who made end runs famous this year for the G. H. S. team. He says: "Discussions with the referee give a fellow time to find his breath."
AVERY THOMAS, '15-
"Chunk," the captain for the next year's team, is certainly a good fellow for the place. His tackling was a feature in every game this year. He also played on the right end. Hez Clarke selected him for left end on the All-State Team.
CLARENCE THOMAS, '15-
"Tommy" was the only "Freshie" that had nerve enough to venture out on the football field this season. We are sure that we shall hear great things of him in the next three years. Everyone on this year's team will recommend him.
CAREY YELTON, '14, '15 ---
Carey is one big bunch of spirit, pep and humor in a game. He always has a cheering word for everyone on the team. He says : "Don't forget, I'll make old G. H. S. famous some day." We are waiting, Carey.
JESS BRIDGES, '12, '14, '15-
"P. I." had hard luck for the past two years, but this year he attained the long-sought-for position of end, and was a success there.
HUGH WALSH, '15-
"Mickie" played fast and steady through every game. His ability to pull down the forward pass was not surpassed by anyone on the team. He was also the man who scattered the interferences.
CORYDON EATON, '12, '14, '15-
"Bottle," the walking shoestring, says: "I would like to play just one more season with the G. H. S. team." His ex- perience at tackle for two years gave him the place this season.
EARL HILLIGOSS, '15-
"Hilly" was handicapped this year on account of getting out to practice three weeks late, but he showed up well in every game.

CAMARADERIE
Brownsburg Game
Brownsburg was the first big game for us this year. They are our old rivals and we had never been able to defeat them. Our coaches, Fletcher and Arnold, had done their best for two weeks to put us in shape for this game on Octo- ber Ist. It was a fine day, and as our team marched out on the Brownsburg field every player was in high spirits.
The game started with our team kicking to Brownsburg. It was not long, however, until we had the ball and were push- ing it towards our goal, amid the cheers of the delegation from home. Just before the whistle blew for the quarter we suc- ceeded in placing the ball over our line, but we failed to kick goal. Score 6 to o.
The second quarter was the hardest fought of the whole game. After the ball had changed hands twice, Brownsburg succeeded in making a touchdown and kicked goal. This only made our eleven play harder. Strong kicked a drop from the thirty-yard line and placed us ahead again. After a few more plays the quarter ended. Score 9 to 7 in favor of G. H. S.
The third quarter was started with a rush. Both teams played end runs, line plunges and forward passes. The ball was first at one end and then at the other. Neither team was able to score. Score 9 to 7 in favor of G. H. S.
In the fourth quarter our team played straight football, and
after a few line plunges and end runs we pushed the ball over for six more points, but we were unable to kick goal. No more scores were made and the game ended with the score 15 to 7 in favor of G. H. S.
This was something that no other G. H. S. team had ever been able to accomplish and it was a great stimulant for our players.
J. L., '16.
Elwood Game
Our first and only game played at home was with Elwood. Elwood boasted of having the strongest team in the State, so we were prepared for a hard fight. The expense of bringing this team was large, but much enthusiasm was shown by the G. H. S. pupils and enough tickets were sold to cover this ex- pense.
The game was called at 2:30 in the afternoon and we kicked to them. It was great to see how our fellows got down upon the man. We took the ball from them in about the middle of the field, and just after Weeder's long end run Loehr received a pass by Mannon and crossed the goal for the first score of the game. The goal was kicked by the Elwood eleven. They had their fighting spirit up now and they held us the rest of the quarter. The score was 7 to o.

CAMARADERIE
In the next quarter we played straight football, while El- wood opened up and the ball was first in one team's posses- sion and then in the other's. Conditions remained this way until the quarter was up and neither of us was able to push the ball over the goal for a score. The score remained 7 to o.
In the third quarter we received the ball, and the old faithful "crisscross" of Greenfield's worked for sixty yards. After some successful line plunging another touchdown was made. The goal was missed, thus leaving the score 13 to o at the end of the third quarter.
In the fourth quarter the G. H. S. team played one of the best open-field and line-buck games of the season, and it was not long until we had pushed the ball over the goal for an- other touchdown. We failed to kick goal. We ended the third game of the season as victors with a score of 19 to o, and a good start for the State championship.
Sheridan Game
Sheridan being a strong team, contended for the State cham- pionship.
We had been coached hard before this game and were in the best of condition.
We had many supporters for this game, as many of the stu-
dents and Greenfield people went along with the team in ma- chines.
The teams were pretty evenly matched as to weight, and, it seemed, in everything else. We started in to win the game, but we were not over-confident, and we knew that we would have to fight. The first quarter was played hard and fast, everyone doing his best. Neither team could possibly get a touchdown or a score of any sort, but when the quarter ended we had gained more ground than our opponents. The spirit of both sides was still high, and after some narrow escapes on both sides, the second quarter ended with a score of o to o.
Our weak points were pointed out to us by our coach, Clare Fletcher, who told us to try the drop-kick the first chance we had. We received the ball on the kick, and after a series of open plays we walked right over Sheridan until we were within thirty yards of our goal, when the drop-kick was called for. Our line stood like a stone wall against the Sheridan eleven and Strong placed the kick between the posts for the winning score of the game. At the close the score was 3 to o in favor of G. H. S ..
Everyone fought hard the last quarter, but no other score was made.
Avery Thomas and Paul Strong were the outstanding stars in this game.

Noblesville Game
This game was a complete walk-away for our G. H. S. team. We made a touchdown in five plays, and after getting the ball we continued to score until we had a score of twenty-seven points in the first quarter.
In the second quarter we tried some plays we had never used before; nevertheless, we suceeded in running up fourteen points, making the score 41 to o.
In the third quarter we used open field play, making the score 61 to o.
We were not very enthusiastic the last quarter and were ashamed to make any more. The game ended-G. H. S. 61, N. H. S., o.

East Chicago Game
Saturday, November 13th, about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Captain Spangler led us onto the field at East Chicago. After a short practice we sat down at the north end of the field and rested until the whistle was blown for the game to start. When
