MORE ABOUT
Dr. OTinkle
by the sincere and original man
ner in which Dr. O’Finkle open
ed his oration) and students,
(here several left the auditorium
for fresh air and supplies) it is
with rapturous delight, glee, and
boredom that I stand up here and
gaze into your upturned faces,
which appear to be so learned
(smiles and applause) but I know
that that is a great prevarication
(more smiles possibly because no
one knew what the word meant
either). This is a great issue with
which we are faced this night.
(The Dr. at this point asked his-
manager what the issue was and
he looked wise and shook his
head; the Dr. continues never
theless— loud applause at this
show of dauntless courage).
There are many sides to this
thing-this side, that side, and
then the side that’s in the middle;
he might be called the middle
man (laughter by the audience at
this bit of wit on the part of the
speaker).! have had vast experi-
ience(arms outstretched) in many
fields (counts on fingers up to
ten) and in many places (ditto).
I have traveled over all the world
and hav.e indulged in intensive
exploration of parts of New Eng
land. 1 have collected match cov
ers in all the nations of the world
and have collected money for a
finance company in New York
City. But, enough of my egotistic
chatter. I’m afraid I’m boring
you (roof shaken with frenzied
applause— at this moment Dr.
O’Finkle sent his wife down to
collect the fruit that some of the
young" gentlemen there had
brought him).I might say in clos
ing that I trust you have enjoyed
hearing me clear up this topic
for you tonight, but as I always
say, quote: “When one fellow
gets on top, he should assist his
less fortunate fellow. I have just
received an urgent request to
haunt a house, so I will leave
you.”
K.O. Rowe Quits Ring
After ending a successful sea
son K. 0. “Bigstuff” Rowe has
quit the ring for a job as trainer
for Mickey Alexander, a growing
young flyweight. During K. O’s
ring career, which has been
quite brilliant, he has won 17
fights by knockouts and 40 by
decision. Among some of the no
tables he has won over are Shorty
Gwaltney, Peanut McBee, and
Tom Ewart. K. O’s reason for
quitting the ring was that he
was getting too old to move fast.
It has been rumored that Mike
Jacobs has been dilly dallying
for matches between Rowe and
Galento. In this case K. 0. says
he will return to the ring.

Don’t you think it’s rather
early to be taking sun baths,
Clara? I’ll bet it’s breezy on the
roof.
Of all the embarrassing predic
aments, 1 think Hazel C. was in
the worst one Monday night
when her pajamas were blown
out of her window by the electric
fan. They were caught by a tree,
and it did look funny to see Ha
zel dangling from her window
sill that way.
During open house at Taylor
Hall Tuesday, a few, negligent
boys forgot to take some pictures
off their dressers and almost got
into trouble. When Therolyn
found another girl’s picture on
Jack’s desk, she declared she’d
never date him again; but I think
things are patched up now.
Jerry, you’d better stay in
your room after the lights have
flashed. One of these days (or
rather nights) you’re going to be
caught while hiding in closets.
Gloria’s bowling was 99 points,
but Maurine savs “No, you can’t

out War Biscuit _ today in a bril
liant photo finish to cop the 29th
general annual handicap of the
Southern Daughters of the
American Confederacy.
Leray Robertson, owner of the
prize horse and former ice wagon
employer, won the $5,000 purse.
Little George Roberts, jockey,
piloted “Dud in the Mud” to a
thrilling finish, while thousands
of spectators pulled their hair
and made faces at the new
champion, who had upset the
dope bucket to win. The Brevard
filly, which was snow white, had
overcome a field of twenty horses
to sack up his first victory to
a previously unblemished second.
Bruce Bales, big time booking
agent at the race track, was seen
chewing cigar after cigar, up to
the nub, after the upset. He was
quoted as saying it was the worst
upset in 59 years, since George
“Round the Bend” Bryson fin
ished first in the Kentucky
Derby in 1881. "
Winners of the first four heats
were
First, “Dud in the Mud;”
^Second, “War Biscuit;”
Third, “Sea Admiral;” and
Fourth, “Put Out the Cat.”

Eight of the nine games are
intersectional combats. Mars Hill

mitted a tentative date here Oct

phasized the fact, however, that
it was definitely pending at pres
ent. He asserted that he was
conferring with Louisiana State
University representatives, who,
according to reports, are eager
to bring the Bayous here on the
twelfth to meet the famed Tor
nado. Their request probably
will be denied since Brevard is
anxious to further the develop

Brevard Wins
Easy Victory
Over Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh, Pa. Nov. 26, 1940.
A superior Brevard College, N*
C., football team did the unpre
dictable today b y bolwing over
the mighty Pitt Panther 30-7.
The dazzling blue and white
of Brevard kept 65,000 howling
spectators o n their feet, when
they outcharged and out-played
the Yankees to a one-sided game.
Eager Pitt fans were not disap
pointed when they saw the two
senational all-Americans from
Dixie, Buck Barden and Chuck
McFee, lead the Southerners Lc
victory.
The North Carolina lads showed
they meant business when on the
opening kick-off, Chuck McFee
bucked and stumbled his way to
the Pitt 10-yard line. Practically
amazed, Pitt called “time out,”
amidst the thundering shrieks
and cheers from the huge crowd.
On the next play, the Panthers
cornered McFee only to find that
Barden had slipped through on
a fake reverse to score. Craven,
husky Tornado end, tagged a
short pass for the extra point,
and the ^)()titherners led 7-0.
On the next kick-off the Pitt
Panthers were stopped on their
own 23-yard line by Campbell
and Roberson. A few minutes
before the half. Jack Young,star
lineman from Dixie, blocked
Stein’s kick and recovered on
the Panther 12-yard line. After
two unsuccessful plays, Kendall
caught a short pass on the dead
run to tally a score. McFee’s try
for the extra point was blocked.
Pitt’s lone score came on a
prolonged drive in the third
quarter. Kelly scored and Stein-
back converted.
While everyone seemed to
think the two teams had settled
down, Brevard suddenly began
to flip a few seemingly wild
passes. Then with only four
minutes playing time remaining,
their pass attack suddenly began
to click, and as the final whistle
blew, Brevard had racked up 17
more points. Lanky Bill Greene
had been on the receiving line
twice, while Shuford had scored
on a 30-yard run.
