Jays 26-7
Proving their , right to the
first place (position In the Mid-
Michigan B Conference foothaD
standings, Clare High's Pioneers
outfought and won, from the Blue,
and Gold Shepherd eleven in Friday evening.s Homecoming game
The scoring continued in every
period of the game until Clare rolled up a 26-7 verdict over the challengers.
The game was a big grid attraction in the area, having been tabbed the "Grid Game qf The Week",
and matched the two undefeated
•squads ih the conference.
Attendance mounted to a new
record for an athletic contest on
the Clare High Athletic Field. While
.exact.counting was not. .possible
sj.nqe ho tabulation was kept on tlie
season tickets, used, yeft the single
adrriissions plus an average of season ticket holders usually attending
the. 'games carhe to an estimated
count,of 1987. Band members and
others not holding tickets "brought
the grand total spectator. count to
something over two ithousand.
Jubilant students and fans saw,
in the rout of Shepherd, the vi
tortious climax ito a weekend of
homecoming fun and spectacular
cejehration.
Weather' was sunny and bright
for the parade of floats, and cool
clear nights added ito the enjoyment of crowds at both JV, and
varsity football .games, and the.
student bonfire and pep rally- on
Thursday.
The CHS Band show between
halves of the Shepherd game was
a colorful treat for the packed
stands. Added to ithe band's field
formations was the appearance ol
forty uniformed junior high girls
in precision marching formations
on the field.
The Green and White football
warriors fought back to win the
game after the 'loss of a first quarter touchdown caussd by tlie referee's mistake.
The official "lost" the ball as ii
was handed off in one of Quarterback Pulcifer's baffling Belly Series plays. Thinking that FB Kin-,
spy. was down with the pigskiti,
the referee whistled the play dead
while Larry Seiter who jfdk the
real ball carrier was streaking
down the sideline far in front of all
pursuers. The Ref's quick "invention" of an offside penalty was
called against Clare to explain his
whistle.
Honors for outstanding play in
the game went to plunging FB
Kinsey who churned out (plenty of
yards through the line.
Robinette, Beery and Merrilat
earned praise for their line play on
both offense and defiense wtule
quarterback Pulcifer and the (two
runaway halfbacks Seiter and Ruby starred with deception and
speed.
The •Homecoming win left only
Big Ithaca and Chesaning between
Clare and the conference title. ■

Area Cooks
Hear Speaker
Gathered in the Clare Public
School on October 11 were thirty
cooks from Clare and Gladwin
county schools who met in a
a Cooks Workshop, the first ever
to be held in this area.
Norman Tellar, who was a special guest, is the State appointed
Instructor responsible for the approving of all school lunch and
special milk programs. Assisting
him -with this, workshop was Miss
Nan Bernstein. Nutritionist from
the State Health Department.
A school hot lunch project is essentially as Educational as any
other subject being taught (in our
schols today, according to Tellar,
Michigan Department of Public
Instruction Supervisor. The hot
lunch program is not and should
not be just a "feeding station", he
said.
County and School Superintendents, teachers. Home Economics
instructors and school parent representatives and Clare and Gladwin County Health- Department
Nurses all combined to make this
a- most sucessful workshop,
t Specific instructions in sanitation were stressed by Ronald
Sweet. Sanitarian for Health District Sevan.
Prevention of Food Poisoning,
menu planning, purchasing of
quanity foods introduction of new
foods and etc. were carefully discussed. Tellar gave the cooks a
card file of new tested and selected recipes which he has personal-
■ sly tried.
He said that a new food needs
to be" served at least four times
before it is accepted by at least
-eighty percent of ihe children. It
s not unusual for two-thirds of the
children to reject it the first time
a. new food is served'
Following the three hour meeting which also included a movie on
the proper methods of dishwashing a dinner was served by the
Glare Public School Cooks. Pians
arc underway for each county to

service value of the program,
Commercial courses are the first
ito be included in the new fall- term,
because of the need of a sequence
ot follow-up program In this area.
'Typing for beginners will be offered in this fall term, and the winter
term will 6ffer these people and
those who have had pervious' beginning typing more training to
continue in an advanced course.
This will enable an adult to gain
more speed and accuracy with 40
hours of instruction rather than the
20 hours available under the 61d
program.
Similarly, shorthand will be offered on the same basis with a
beginner's class ito start the week
of October 25 and an advanced
course beginning In January during the regular winter term.

terms included driver training, and
welding. A course to be offered

Pride Is Flowers But She
Little First Graders
Miss Effie Hales, first grade
"teacher at Clare public schools,
holdg (the faculty teaching record
with forty five years on the job to
her credit. ' '
Since she first began, teaching,
she's traded in her horse and
buggy for an auto, .and substituted
the wordnphrase' system fort the
ABC'a in introducing |beginners to
reading. y
Miss Hales began -teaching at
■Redher School, in' Clare county,
about seven -miles north of the
city at a whopping ?35 per month.
Henry Magnus, a Dover building
contractor Was one. of her ,16 students that first year.
•Her parents lived on a farm in
Isabella county, and when she
wanted' td' -spend a week end at
home, Miss Hales walked three
miles to catch the "Plug" a train
that ran between Harrison and
Clare.
In Clare, she would get off the
train, and walk the five and a half
miles home, unless she was lucky
enough to catch a ride with neighbors. Then- on Sunday, her father
would hitch up the rteam and lum-
•berwagon and take Miss Hales the
15 miles "back to her boarding
house where she lived for ?3 per
week.
Most of the rural schools she
taught were in Isabella County,
nearer her parents home. Miss
Hales' mother was m poor health
and the teacher lived at home to
•take care of her.
Her second school was Vernon
Center, where she walked two and
a half miles to school each morning, sometimes through waist
deep snow.
A few years later while teaching at Orr School, she bought her
self a spanking new buggy and'
spirited horse to pull it and drove
to school each day.
In those days the roads would
be so ibad in the rainy season that
mud would be up to the wheel
hubs, and Miss Hales would have-
to get ottt and knock the mud off
ibefoie she could be on her way.

While the approaching Giu.
County iDrive is to be directed and
undertaken by local people, the
United Fund will participate as
the agent of all offices not represented by local leadership, but
which have a recognized claim on
the support of Clare, county- givei s.
With the inclusion of The Red
Cross and Polio Foundation under
the enlai-ged organization, of The
Clare County United Drive, only
the Cancer Fund, TB Christmas
Seal and Easter Seal sales, and
Tht- Maich of Dimes Canister appeal remain as separate functions
and some of these prefer to remain in individual status only because of seasonal nature, or because they are doing an important
educational job equal to their
money-raising achievements:.
With the addition of major
"partners" in the drive this year,
the giSAl of IH8 caihpaigii hag HBeh
to a county total of ?8,959.00. The
■budget breakdown has been given,
with the following amounts under
principal heads:
Boy Scouts --_- ?2,0S5.
Red Cross 3,200.
Polio Foundation 1,200.
United Fund —.„__ 1,974.
Salvation Army 500.
The United Fund request divides
into many agencies, among: which
the largest are The National USO,
!j*^49; Michigan agencies for the
Heai't Association, $238; Sister
Kenny Foundation ?219; Arthritis
and Rheumatism Foundation $128;
Cerebral Palsy Association, $117;
Michigan Children^ Aid Society,
$92, and eight other State organizations ranging down to The Nursing League on the budget list for
$6.00. '
Campaign leaders have hopes of
rallying over-the-top support for
the 1955 drive by educating people
of the county to the vital necessity
of giving large enough amounts to
cover the total of many separate
gifts such as have been solicited in
previous- years.
It is considered likely that the
future of the fund raising once-for-
all idea in the county depends on
the degree of success reached in
this all united performance.
Mrs. Freeman said that if the
$8,959. goal of this campaign is not
reached or over subscribed, it will'

T»fctfIlt$DAY MOHNING THURSDAY; OCT. 20, 1955 Ten-Cents Copy s-=)o as II IH I MM New Series, Vol. 64, No. 5 tt ■iMm w *i iff »■' Jays 26-7 Proving their , right to the first place (position In the Mid- Michigan B Conference foothaD standings, Clare High's Pioneers outfought and won, from the Blue, and Gold Shepherd eleven in Friday evening.s Homecoming game The scoring continued in every period of the game until Clare rolled up a 26-7 verdict over the challengers. The game was a big grid attraction in the area, having been tabbed the "Grid Game qf The Week", and matched the two undefeated •squads ih the conference. Attendance mounted to a new record for an athletic contest on the Clare High Athletic Field. While .exact.counting was not. .possible sj.nqe ho tabulation was kept on tlie season tickets, used, yeft the single adrriissions plus an average of season ticket holders usually attending the. 'games carhe to an estimated count,of 1987. Band members and others not holding tickets "brought the grand total spectator. count to something over two ithousand. Jubilant students and fans saw, in the rout of Shepherd, the vi tortious climax ito a weekend of homecoming fun and spectacular cejehration. Weather' was sunny and bright for the parade of floats, and cool clear nights added ito the enjoyment of crowds at both JV, and varsity football .games, and the. student bonfire and pep rally- on Thursday. The CHS Band show between halves of the Shepherd game was a colorful treat for the packed stands. Added to ithe band's field formations was the appearance ol forty uniformed junior high girls in precision marching formations on the field. The Green and White football warriors fought back to win the game after the 'loss of a first quarter touchdown caussd by tlie referee's mistake. The official "lost" the ball as ii was handed off in one of Quarterback Pulcifer's baffling Belly Series plays. Thinking that FB Kin-, spy. was down with the pigskiti, the referee whistled the play dead while Larry Seiter who jfdk the real ball carrier was streaking down the sideline far in front of all pursuers. The Ref's quick "invention" of an offside penalty was called against Clare to explain his whistle. Honors for outstanding play in the game went to plunging FB Kinsey who churned out (plenty of yards through the line. Robinette, Beery and Merrilat earned praise for their line play on both offense and defiense wtule quarterback Pulcifer and the (two runaway halfbacks Seiter and Ruby starred with deception and speed. The •Homecoming win left only Big Ithaca and Chesaning between Clare and the conference title. ■ Allan Tulk AtSehoolV Conference by Marilyn McQuiston of the Pioneer Staff Allah Tulk, principal of grade school ait Clare, attended a conber- once at Central Michigan College on Friday, October 14, which was sponsored by the Carnegie foundation and designed to improve teaching.
