thought of new frendships to qe made

First "Y" Meeting
The first Prayer Meeting of the
Y. M. C. A. for this year was held
last Wednesday evening, -September
25. These meetings are held every
Wednesday night during the remainder
of the year. This meeting was an
exceptionally good one because Dr.
MacColl was the speaker of the . evening.
Doctor has been the leader of .
the "Y" and the executive committee
ever since it was started by Mac McKinnon's
father in 1901. He gave
to those who attended, some idea as
to what the "Y" was for and what
some of their duties were. The
meetings are led by a different member
of the executive committee .each
week. The leader makes up h;s own
program an!i attends to the arrangement
of the room. The members of
th<> committee are:
Evan 'Moon-PrPS.
Jack 'Strickler-Vice Pres.
Manuel Estrada-Sec.

Damon and Pyth,sis
T'was a bright and airy day that
ô€…¹aw two young Kiski profs set foot
to accellerator and speed westward
to worlds unknown. In fact it migh';
have been 1;et aside ·as a holiday had
it not been known that Hoover wa<;
as good as nominated; bnt the minds
of our two · friends were int􀅺nt upon
the task before them.
· As faithful Mr. Marsh drove down
the entwining Kiski roads neither he
nor the venerable Mr. Sutherland
knew of the hazards or perils which
faced such darng- pioneers venturing
into the uncharted West. Jock had
already telegraphed ahead to St.
Louis, but unfortunately the only
evidence of a greeting was made by
a rabid St. Louis ball fan who tried
· to convince Mr. Marsh of the wonderful
chances of the Red Birds at
winning '· the World Series. Mr.
Marsh retaliated by quoting Newton's
three laws of motion.
Much buffeted were they when
reaching Needles, N. M. they partook
of that wonderful Western dish,
Particio, and Mr. Marsh successfully
convinced Jock that he was sure the
repast consisted of 2 parts of sansison
·instead of one, which was a
new discovery along the Greek restaurant
line.
On entering Los Angeô€…»es and driving
up the wonderful Yosmite Valley
both of our dear teachers were struck
by the likeness of the dense rock
formation and the brains of their
students at Kiski.
However our heroes were not of
the ordinary tourist type. Instead o.i'
yielding to the temptations of Frisco
they decided to take in peaceful Portland.
.From Williamette City our
knights spend across the state into
Idaho. Here Jock found a new
species of potatoes and placed it on
all the Idaho license plates.
Of course the Kiski senators could
not leave the enchanting West without
a glimpse of Yellowstone Park.
And after Mr. Marsh had given a
discourse on the solubility of geyser
water they turned the nose of their
plane northward.
As two heads are better than one,
it was decided, in a council of war,
to omit Chicago from the itinerary
of the expedition. This y·as not done
on account of the naughty gunmen,
but to ô€…¼void a photographers convention.
The welcome at Sa'tsburg will never
be forgotten in all the history or
Indiana Co. Now sleep tight little
boys and tomorrow we will hear of
Little Red Riding Hood.
Here and There

traveling from Philadelphia to Seattle,
this summer, and having had
enough salt air by the time the trip
was over, hitch-hiked back across the

the University cruises, and sailed
from N. Y. on Wednesday, Sept. 26,
to be gone for nine months.

had the interesting experience of 􀄊eeing
the planes leave the airport there.
His brother-in-law, E. M. Green, was
one of the "starters."
Mr. Brown spent three weeks of
his vacation in Bermuda. He says i.t
was hot, something like 100
on a cool day.
Don Campbell, Kiski '23, Yale '28,

of Physical Education at Lake
Forest University, near Chicago.
Campbell, it will be remembered, wao;

Senator from Pennsylvania, and is at
present campaigning for that office.
"John Levine '26, a Kiski baseball
letter man, was a member of the

their brlliant playing earned regular
berths on the varsity nine of Stanford.
"-Pittsburgh Press. Billie
Laird was the other Sophmore mentioned.
Great boys--great trip.
Jimmie Clark and Ralph Daugherty,

Home-Coming Day at Wash-Jeff
We quote from a Washington paper:
"One especially attractive feature
on the W. and J. card will be "homecoming
day", when Duquesne University
is to play at College Field.
As an added attraction for this occasion,
Coach Bill Amos' W. and J.
Freshmen will meet the strong Kiskiminetas
team in a prelminary to
the college engagement. Prospects
are bright for one of the strongest
Freshman elevents in the history of
W. and J. and the bringing of Kiski
here to meet the Vice Presidents will
be an event of interest almost equal
to that of the main attraction". Yea
Kiski!

St. Clair Beats Marks For Golf
Title, Marks Played·Great Game
It sure looked as if Kiski had another
golf star, when Olson, a newcomer,
walked up to tee off in the
opening of the tournament against
Denny St. Clair. But it wasn't long
till Mr. St. Clair, a semi-finalist in
the Western Pennsylvania tournament
for amateurs last year, showed
Mr. Olson, how to play the Scotch
game. Olson did have a few hard
luck shots but he was no match for
Denny. Everything from his drives
to his putts were perfect and when
the days entertainment was over, St.
Clair had taken the game 5-4.
The next scalp to Denny's belt,
was that of Ed. Marks, who had taken
Ramsey over by the count of 1
up. Denny defeated Ed. Marks, 9-7.
. By St. Clair beating Ed. Marks,
it removed one of the strongest contenders
for the title. It's too bad
M􀃆rks had to meet Denny so soon, as
thmgs sure would have "buzzed " if
he had been down farther in' the
list.
Ed. 􀃇farks, a boy with a steady
hand with the club, sure convinced
everyone that he knew what the
game was all about. He showed cham
pionship form from the time he beat
Ramsay until St. Clair beat him.
Even when beaten, he took it with
􀃈 smile. But, this boy deserves watchmg,
as. we know he'll go a great distance
m the game of golf and we
wish him the best.
Those who played mediocre ball,
should not be forgotten, as it takes
thest. players to rna1,1! the tournanwnt
a success. The fellows to receiv.:!
credit for_ their good game are:
Keck, '\\'.'mters, Skelly and J. Simpson.
With the average golfer's hard
luck, these players showed they knew
􀃉he game, but just couldn't get gomg.
The most exciting moment of the
whole tournament was the bright
sunny day, that St. Clair and W.
Marks met, with the t:t!e at stake.
It was wonderful to see two youna
fellows who were 1·aised togethe;
meet_, to see which one was the mas􀃊
ter. _m that particular sport. Both
sm1hng, they drove off and then settled
down to work. What a game!
It sure was interesting to watch
Each handling a steady club They
could easily have filled the shoes of
any pro􀃋essional: But as "everyone
meets his superior," so did Marks
which he took like a man. The dil
ference between these two, would
not be worth mentioning, as they
are evenly matched. St. Clair took
the match 5-4, and with it the title
of the Kiski tournament.
Also, if Denny St. Clair enters into
any tournament this year we
want him to know, he has all Kiski
behind him.
Etiquette hint in an English paper:
Never break your bread or roll in
your soup.

From East to West via. Panama
Travelogue by Lowry
Have you ever wanted to be far
out at sea, dreaming of some distant
, land, a land of which you have heard
much, a land of which you have often
dreamed? Come, let us be carried
to the land of wonders.-To
Frisco, by sea.
Our boat, Manchuria, her graceful
hull shining in a new coat of paint,
lay in her berth along New York's
great waterfront. On her decks men
are hurrying about shouting orders.
Other men hurrying about obey_ng
them; there is the noise of great
cranes and swinging booms loading
the hold with freight and supplies.
Finally their work is done and all is
made ready to receive the passengers.
The hour of sailing approaches.
The pier becomes crowded with people
and baggage. Stewards huniedly
direct those who are seeking their
quarters. . A whistle blows a long
blast. The tug boats draw alongside.
The officers and crew are all at their
posts. All is ready.
The great engines begin to turn,
the whole boat vibrates. Tugs pull
and push the great ship. She begins
to draw back, slowly, very slowly at
first. Out into the river she floats,
and as she swings her bow down
stream, last farewells are called to
those on shore. Bells ring from the
bridge, the engines throb deep in the
hull, propellers churn the water, the
boat moves under her own power,
sailing out to sea!
We pass between the great piers
lining either shore ocean liners lying
peacefully in their various berths.
Tiny craft busily ply up and down
with the river's commerce. On the
left, the famous New York sky-line
looms beside us. Cliffs of stone towering
to the heavens. The Woolworth
Building, the Metropolitan Tower
and others like giant needles seem
to prick the sky. Now the Battery
comes into view, and on our right
the Statue of Liberty in her sombre
grey, stands a guarding sentinal.
Through the Narrows, out toward
the vast Atlantic we go, the
great city lies behind us.
As evening sets in we near the
Light Ship and drop our pilot, and
as the sun sets behind the now distant
New Jersey hills, we head south
ward toward distant Havana, that
historic city of Romantic Cuba.
Our curosity is aroused to examine
our surroundings, and we stroll
froward to satisfy this. Walking
through the narrow passage between
the cabinets we make our way to
the "open Deck". Here are booms
and towering masts. On the forward
mast, perched in a barrel shaped
nest we see the "watch", who for
hours upon hours scans the horizon
for the <limger􀃌 that be􀃍et a boat at
sea. Below him on the deck are
coiled the great anchor clains that
hold the massive anchors, one on
either side.
Walking back, we look to the
highest deck, a superstructure called
"The bridge", from which the
course of the boat is directed and
the commands given. Below this is
the "boat deck", where hang the life
boats; below that the "lounge" where
"e walk or s:t listening to the orchestra.
Still below the dining room
,,
I
for first •class passengers, a beautiful
ly decorated and furnished salon. We
penetrated beyond the living quarters
and drawn by the throbbing of
the engines made our way to the engine
room. Men stripped to the waist
work among the great boilers. Others
stand at the control boards, watching
pressure gages and giving orders
accordingly.. The chief engineer, recognized
by the four gold bars on
his sleeve, casts his watchful eye over
the greut machines much as a doctor
examines a patient. Each tiny
organ must function perfectly to enable
the great boat to go forward
hour after hour.
Nights are spent in peaceful s'eep,
days pass happily and serenely
aboard the liner. Excellent meals,
games, music, swimming in the open
air pool, strolling and making acquaintances,
the passengers scarcely
notice the passage of time and on
the fourth day out, at sunrise, we
sight the Isle of Cuba.
Entering by the narrow gateway
to Havana Harbor, we see, painted a
dark silhouette against the morning
sky, the historic Castle Morro, sentinel
of the Isle. On her turrets old
cannon threaten all intruders, but
her shining beacon seems more appropriate
as it safely guides us into
the harbor. We are landed at San
Francisco pier, a building in picturesque
Spanish architecture, and passing
out into the street, hire a car
to take us over the city. Our first
shrine is the ancient Cathedral of
Columbus, where the body of Christopher
lay for so many years. It is
the great sanctu.ary of the city, and
within its walls the Cubans gather
KISKI NEWS
on all memorable occasions. Turning
from the contemplation of the historic
part to the present, we walk
along the sea wall, erected by Gen.
Leonard Wood, when he was Ambassador
to Cuba -past the monument
erected to the memory of those who
lost their lives in the Maine, and
out along the shore of the blue Gulf
of Mexico. Sunshine, sparkling waters
and a wealth of tropical foliage
combine to make a scene of indescribable
beauty. Back to our car
and on to the cemetery, said to be
the most wonderful in the world,
where the great monuments of
marble and wealth of flo·ral tributes
are so numerous that they fairly
weary the eye.

No Words To Waste
Two farmers met on a road and
pulled up:
"Si, I've got a mule that's got distemper.
What did you give that one
of yours when he had it?"
"Terpentine, Giddap."
A week later tliey met again.
"Say Si, I gave my mule turpentine
and it killed him."
"Killed mine too, giddap."

Varsity Wins First Game
Kiski varsity won its first game
of the season from the Irwin Scholastics
by the score of 13-6. Penalties,
fumbles and incomplete passes were
numerous on both sides of the line.
In the initial quarter the Kiskans
carried the ball down to the five
yard line, but lost it on a fumble.
Neither side succeeded in scoring in
the first quarter.
Irwin opened the second period
with a parade to the half way mark
where they were forced to kick. Then
Kiski reversed the line of march,
stopping only when the line was crossed
for a touchdown. Irwin, unable
to progress, kicked. Kiski fumbled
and the whistle blew for the half.
Gailus broke away early in the
second half for a long run to the
twenty yard line. From that point
on Abbott took charge of the oval,
ushering it over the final barrier on a
fourth down. The kick for extra
point was successful. Again the
enemy found the Kiski line impenetrable
and had to punt. Kiski was
penalized but the loss was made up
by a nice pass by Capt. McMurdo.
For the remainder of the period the
ball oscillated up and down the center
of the field, neither team being
able to score.
The Irwin team opened the fourth
quarter with what was literally a nonstop
trip to their goal posts. After
making three successive first downs
the wearers of the Yell ow and Black
kicked. Kiski fumbled and with the
aid of a pass and penalty the Scholastics
battered their way through for
their only marker. Kiski passed frequently
during the remaining minutes
but w?s unable to score as was likewise
the case or Irwin. A goodly
number of the tosses were incomplet.
e The final sco1·e being 13-6 in
favor of the Kiski team.
