I— Do you do the right thing at the proper time without being told? II. — Do you wait to be told how, when, or where to do what you ought to do? HI— Do you hang around until hunger and want prod you before you get busy? IV. — Are you the individual who waits for Dad’s check to come through? If you are No. 1, you will receive more pay and be rewarded by promotion. If you are No. 2, you will probably remain on the pay roll as one of the help. If you are No. 3, your suit will shine a park bench. If you are No. 4, the immutable law of gravity will get you down and keep you down. If you honestly analyze yourself, you'll know what to expect. — The Silent Partner. STOP PRESS. Joseph R. Wood (“Joe” Wcod, of course), has been appointed ViceChairman of the Entertainment Committee. That means a lot of added impetus for the Pep Club Ball. THE PARAMOUNT PATHE GAME Played at Savage Gym. January 12, 1928. ( Reported by Maxine Kess,er). As I entered the Gym before the game, cheers and more cheers arose. But, dear readers, the cheers were not for me. A little birdie had whispered that the Pep Club would be victors, and most of the officers of the Pep Club were there to witness the triumph. The cheers were given to Vincent Trotta, Pres., Joseph Sweeney, Vice Pres., Arthur Leonard, Treas., and Louis Diamond, Chairman of the Entertainment Committee. We spied L. J. Ludwig, Joseph R. Wood, Homer Traw, William Macllvain and Walter Stokes on the balcony giving the heartiest of all. During the first quarter Paramount scored 1 only two points, and Pathe twenty-one. i Then the "Pepsters” became “Peppy,” held lj! the Pathe team scoreless and made seventeen points in the second period, bringing j the score to 21-19, in favor of Pathe. More j excitement, more cheers: Paramount scored j 6 Points, Pathe 10. End of third period and Pathe still led by 8 points. If the Pep ! team held Pathe scoreless in the second lj period why couldn’t they do so in the fourth period? They did!.... the “Pepsters” ! played, and how! Bringing the final score to 34-31 in favor of the Pep Club. Since Pathe had not been defeated in j two years, and is considered one of the outstanding teams of the league, our play i ers deserve great credit for defeating them. |i May we enjoy many more victories!!!!! FLASHES FROM THE FLOOR By Jack Davis, Basket Ball Reporter. The Paramount-Pathe game was a physical demonstration of the Paramount Spirit. At the end of the first quarter the score | stood 21 to 2 in favor of Pathe, after a fast ] and hard fought ten minutes of play. From ,j then on, the Paramount team staged a rally || and during the second quarter prevented '] Pathe from scoring, and at the same time ' by a combination of excellent team work ■ and shooting, scored 17 points for Para , mount. It was nip and tuck until the end ! of a game which left the spectators breathless and hoarse from cheering a Paramount victory by 34 to 31 over a team which has J! gone undefeated in the past two years. At the end of the first quarter, the team was greatly encouraged by the loyalty of the many Paramount rooters who were ! present and judging from the rally in the second quarter this loyalty was rewarded by renewed efforts on the part of the team. Another notable feature of the game was the sterling sportsmanship displayed by | the Pathe representatives, which was rec J, ognized and appreciated by both the players and the rooters and has promoted a || feeling of good fellowship in spite of the I| keen rivalry already existing.
