r V v/n/uniUi THE CO-NO PRESS VOLUME I NORMAL SCHOOL, CORTLAND, N. Y„ NOV. 20, 1925 NUMBER 3 C. N. S. DOWNS MANSFIELD AND OSWEGO Physical Education Party a Huge Success Freshmen Stage Unique Stunt Something unique in the way of school parties was offered to the stu dents and faculty of the Physical Education Department on Wednes day evening, November 4th. Stunts were put on by the various classes. The Freshmen led off with a sensational entrance. Sherwood acted as announcer; Lesi impersonated Cy Winnie as “ Music, ” and played a mas terpiece on the piano that would have made Paderewski jealous. A mixed quartet, consisting, of “ mouse ” onis- ko as Mascot, “ Jabber ” Lynch, “ Fighting Dave ” Webb, “ Hurry-Up ” Yost, and “ Miss ” Oberdahn lived up to everyone ’ s expectations when they , heg'^n to warble, setting the audience into spasms of laughter. Their cos tumes were very startling to say the least. “ Harvey, the School Sleuth, ” was cleverly enacted by “ Tex ” Dane. A flour blowing contest, to uncover two cents, next took place between “ Jabber, ” Webb and Yost, “ Jabber ” winning, though his face was as white as a ghost at the finish. A pantomine playlet, “ Citronella, the Lighthouse Keeper ’ s Daughter, ” was next offered with the following cast: Citronella Her Mother Her Father The Villian The Hero The Lighthouse Eugenia Bartz Ruth McGuire Marjorie Lane Helen Burns Annabel McHale Gertrude Deitzer Waves Evelyn Wilmes, Dorothy Salhoff, and Bernice Warren. Needless to say. this one act farce brought down the house; especially when the sailboat came rolling across the gym floor carrying the hero on his way to save his sweetheart from the villain ’ s clutches. Another laugh- bringer was the pitching and rolling of the waves, enacted by three girls lying under blankets on the gym floor.

Red and White Turn Tables on Pennsylvanians and Whitewash es Orange and Gold Dr. DeGroat Attends Gov ernor ’ s Conference Prominent Educators Discuss Finance On Friday, Governor Smith called a conference of prominent educators and professional men of the State in the Executive Chamber of the Capitol. Dr. DeGroat and several of the other normal school principals were present among about two -hundred educators and prominent professional men.. The conference lasted for about three hours. The purpose of the meeting was to discover, if possible, some practical plan of financing the school budgets of the larger cities. Buffalo and Rochester find it par ticularly difficult to finance their school systems owing to the fact that there is a constitutional limit on Continued on Page 8, Col. 1 PICTURES MADE POSSIBLE BY J UDGE CHA MPLIN ’ S GIFT Several Mezzotints and Etchings Purchased When Mr. George Bailey, an art dealer of Rochester, visited the school last week Tuesday with a large collec tion of choice pictures, it became know known that Judge Champlin, Secre tary-Treasurer of the Normal Board, had placed at the disposition of Miss Olcott, Head of the Art Department, a sum sufiicient for the purchase of several pictures for the school. Mr. Bailey ’ s collection, which in cluded for the most part etchings and mezzotints, was on display for a short time in the Board Room. Many mem bers of the student body and faculty took advantage of the opportunity to feast their eyes on the many splendid pieces in the collection. The school is to be congratulated on its good for tune in being made the recipient of so enviable a gift. Cortland Normal let loose its steam roller offensive at Mansfield, Saturday, November 7th, and smashed the Mansfield line in pieces. Mansfield ’ s speedy backs, able to do little with the Cortland line, netted their only gains on wide end runs. C. N. S. received at the beginning of the game, and opened hostilities on its own twenty-yard line with a quick forward pass. Then followed a steady 60-yard drive up the field with first downs ticking off like clockwork. A fumble on Mansfield ’ s twenty-yard line lost the ball, but the Red and Black, unable to dent Cortland ’ s line, was forced to punt. Mansfield Scores Once again Cortland advanced the ball by straight football to within striking distance of the Pennsylvan ia ’ s goal, and once again lost an op portunity to score when a shifty Red and Black warrior intercepted a for ward pass and ran the ball back into Cortland ’ s territory. After failing to gain in three attempts to pierce the “ stonewall, ” Mansfield scored on a splendid place kick from the twenty- five-yard line. The first half ended with the ball in Cortland ’ s possession in enemy territory. Red and White Launches Offensive Smith received the ball for Cortland and ran it back to his own forty-yard line. Foster replaced Youker at full. Then began a sixty-yard march for the lone touchdown of the game. The delayed pass dazzled the Pennsyl vanians, and their line wilted, and opened up wide for every cross buck. Foster ’ s powerful line plunging, and consistent playing was a big factor in clinching the victory. Eppolito ’ s at tempt for the seventh point was blocked. Red and Black L*cks Punch Mansfield received, but could not advance the ball, and kicked. C. N. S. started another invasion which was only halted by the whistle. Eppolito and Foster proved too strong a com bination for the enemy. Hill, the clever quarterback of the Red and Black, ran his team with ability and skill. Lloyd and Worthington were the principal groundgainers for the home eleven. Team Entertained The team was entertained at the Mansfield school, having dinner and supper in the beautiful school dining hall, and were the guests at a dance held in the evening in the school gym nasium, thanks to the courtesy of Mr. Cornish ’ s daughters, who were acting Deans for this occasion. Miss Reagan and Mr. Schultz were among the Cortland rooters. The line-up: Cortland Nor. — 6 Mansfield Nor — 3 Kress r.e. Martin Hansen r.t. Odell Lundy r.g. Smith Class c. Watson Blake l.g.

Backs On a soggy field before the largest crowd of the season, Cortland ’ s big red machine closed a most successful season in a most satisfactory manner by defeating the orange-clad gridiron warriors from the lake front city by the overwhelming score of 20 to 0. The first half found Cortland play ing their old rivals off their feet. C. N. S. kicked off to Oswego. An or ange clad warrior brought the pigskin back to his own forty-yard line where the visitors were held for downs. Cortland Attack Effective The Red and White launched a powerful offensive which the Oswego outfit tried in vain to stem. “ Boots ” Youker crossed the line for the initial tally. Eppolitto kicked the goal. Second Score Follows Soon Cortland received the kick, and straightway began another triumphal march. The battering ram tactics of Foster, Covert. ’ s terrific onslaughts, and Eppolitto ’ s brilliant open-field running quickly put the ball in Oswe go ’ s danger zone. “ Ox ” scored on a powerful offrtackle smash. Oswego Comes Back Strong In the second quarter Oswego came to life, and threw the Red and White backs for repeated losses. C. N. S. conceded considerable ground on pen- ?!
