ffliransfurmatinn QPrize Poem.D I throw my youthful garments with the rest, With flow'rs, and calm, and days of mirthful play My heart is leaping high within my hreastg I shut the door on youth and turn away. And now a naked sword lives in my hand, And I am filled with fierce and sudden joy. I stand erect and wait the hour's commandg I am a man, I am no more a boy. OPAL CLAPP.

7 ecafbun W' Q4 Uiiafpg ' COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES Commencement exercises of the January and June classes of 1917 will be held on Thursday, June 14. Simplicity is the keynote of the program. This year there will be no individual speaker for the evening but instead eight members of the classes will present individually the different phases of Technical High School life. First, Hellen Algeo, June '17, describes Tech at Home. Her talk is chiefly an appreciation of Tech's setting. She also traces through her talk the parallel between Technical and the home. She tells of the difficulties of the school authorities in struggling for our school and of the final decision of the Supreme court. In concluding her address she gives a brief description of the grounds and pupils. Sidney Dailey of the January class will talk on Tech at Work, giving an account of the organization of the school and of the varied course of study offered. Caroline McMath, June '17, in describing Tech at Play, briefly reviews our different branches of athletics and describes the many forms of recreation. She sets forth the aim of the different organiza- tions, the Glee Clubs, Cabinet, Spanish Club, Electrical Club, Orches- tra, Ukelele Club and Band. She tells also of the Shakespearian Festival given at Tech last spring, of our floats in the Indiana Centennial Pageant. Tech at Lunch, a subject of universal interest, will be discussed by Arline Webster. Her address is a comparative history of Tech's lunch rooms. She has procured for the first time some interesting information concerning the first lunch room-the old Guard House near Michigan street. She makes her talk quite effective by some charts which show the amount of food consumed by the great army of hungry Techites and the proportions of various foods used. As the concluding part of the program Houston Meyer calls to- gether the senior class for a final meeting. At this time members of the class will address the seniors and the audience upon the subject of Welfare Ideas, thus showing the standards of Technical which have been established during its five years' existence. Jack Haymaker gives the first of these talks in which he shows that scholarship is an important feature of high school work. Dallas Crooke outlines Tech's ideal in athletics, emphasizing clean, honest playing and athletics for everyone. He gives the plan for the Tech-A Club, an organization to create more interest in athletics and to give every boy a chance of discovering what he really can do. Tech's Ideal in Integrity is the theme of the talk given by Frances Jones. She suggests a student Council and urges voluntary cooperation in a school for the purpose of regarding other students' rights and property.
