THE NORMAL RECORD.
FOOTBALL.
Many may ask the question, Has the football
season of 1904 been a successful one? At the
present time I can say "yes," but from all appearances the season has not yet closed and in
the course of a few days, I may be compelled
to reverse my decision.
We have defeated Auburn, Sacramento and
Colusa, but went down to defeat at the hands
of Oakland. At the present time we stand
ready to do battle with Woodland for the
championship of the S. V. I. A. L., and with the
Chico High for the championship of the N. C.
H. S. A. L. We have two pennants now within
our grasp, shall we let them slip from us or
shall we tighten our grip upon them and bring
them home in triumph? Picture, if you can, a
pennant in each end of our 'gym." Wouldn't
it make your heart leap into your throat to
get a glimpse at what might be, and then to
think that you helped place them there and
that it was all the result of a single season's
work? Wouldn't it be much nicer to have the
trophies wrapped up within our own hearts,
than to see one stray to the distant town of
Woodland and see the other find an unworthy
resting place within the walls of the Chico
High School?
Boys, let us get back into our armor, and,
with the same spirit that spurred us on, on
the day that Auburn vanquished before us,
strive on harder than ever and bring home, in
triumph, that which rightfully belongs to us.
Exchanges.
It is with pleasure that we acknowledge ourselves the recipients of a large list of new
exchanges. To our regular exchanges we extend our thanks for their friendly criticisms.
It has been but a short time since the Advance came among us. Your's is a "swell"
poster design, Advance. Read "A Lawyer's
Story" for a thrilling, but somewhat bloodcurdling tale.
"Sunny Hill's Truant Officer" is very interesting, Vidette. We are disappointed in your
exchange column, however.
The Guard and Tackle well deserves praise.
Each department is well written, especially the
literary and exchange departments. "Stanford vs. California" we class as one of the
best stories that we have been called upon to
read this month.
We always watch for the Senior, because its
literary department always contains interesting material. You have a good exchange
column, too.
Megunticook, your locals were good, but there
is not enough literature of a lighter vein to
be found among your pages.
And here is the G. H. S. Journal. Girls, you
certainly have our congratulations for your
paper is one of the best that we receive, and to
think that it is edited by girls, too!
In the Sea Urchin are found some very good
cuts. The same can be said of the Wilmerding
Life. The members of your class '05, Wilmerd
ing Life, must be firm believers in optomism.
You are an entertaining, "Faithful Friend,"
Herald. The organization of each of your departments is in every way commendable.
Purple and White, we are inclined to think
that the personals are the best part of your
paper, but are not some of them quite pointless?
They are, to an outsider at least.
Your address please, Fisk Herald.
Your exchange and editorial departments are
always well written, Sacramento Review, but
your literary department does not begin to do
your school credit. Does criticising only one
department at a time, do your exchanges justice? It seems to me that it tends to be misleading, for an exchange may he good in every
other department except the one which you
have chosen to criticize for that time, or the
reverse might be true. In such cases don't you
think that wrong impressions of such exchanges
might be conveyed to your readers?
Nothing but praise for you, Sentinel. Your
exchange column is small but perhaps it was
the exchange editor's "off" day.
Normal Pennant, do not be too severe. Remember that it takes money to insert cuts in
a paper and then consider the difference in
population between San Jose and Chico. Your
editorials lack variety and quantity. Your
training school notes were very interesting.
Porcupine, your last issue was sadly lacking
in wit—not even a personal column.
