Wolff, Kubly and Hirsig Sterling Snurus Ibeunaru Sterling Andrus Leonard stands out to each successive Senior Class as the epitome of inspirational leader' ship. Brilliant, visionary, yet withal humorous and kindly, he took a never failing interest in our work, ideals, and activities. He dominaf ted us and liberated us. The tradif tion which he upheld will continue to dominate and liberate. I fl w 1 gFokreword As the curtain falls upon the final act of our high school career, we look back upon the four scenes, The School, Activities, Athletics, and Literature and Humor, with a feeling that our little play has been sucf cessful, and We leave the theatre of Wisconsin High School with new ideas and more real experience than we had before. , L Dedication To Mr. Burr W. Phillips, who has encouraged and assisted the staff of this annual as he has encouraged and assisted other staffs for many years back, Whose advice has been Wise and kindly, and whose interest has inspired us to make this book Worthy of the school it represents, We dedicate this 1931 Wisconsin. Y tr, All the vvorld's a stage, And all the men and women merely players, They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. At first the infant, Mewling and sucking in the nurses arms. Then the Whining schoolboy, with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like a snail Unwillingly to school. And then the lover, Sighing like a furnace, with a woeful ballad Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier, Full of strange oaths and bearded like a pard, Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in quarrel, Seeking the bubble reputation Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice In fair round belly with good capon lin'd With eyes severe and beard with formal cut, Full of wise saws and modern instances, And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts Into the lean and slippered pantaloon, With spectacles on nose and pouch on side, His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide For his shrunk shank, and his big manly voice, Turning again toward childish treble, pipes And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all, That ends this strange eventful history, Is second childishness and mere oblivion, Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything. -SHAKE SPEARE iii. 1 JW ,gh J V101 5 9:11 mis Q lx L ql ' Q 5 E Q' 4 ' Wg XT Mgduil. , i ' R W 'avg' Q ., M 'a 'M l Ln, Ennssng MR. H. H. RYAN- In the two years that Mr. Ryan has been in Wisconsin High School he has made many changes, and the school has taken on an entirely' new form. This period has been marked by increasing success in athletics, debating, oratory, dramatics, and scholarship. We feel that this expansion is due largely to our principal, Mr. H. H. Ryan. ill EVl5EIIll5IN llE ...Faculty... MISS GLADYS BORCHBRS, BA., M.A., Ph.D.. . . MRS. FRANCIS K. BURR, B.A. ............ . MR. EUGENE BAHN, B. A. M. A. ....... .

With John Wright as Prom King and Rose Mary Dudley as Prom Queen, it was one of the best Proms in the history of the school. Besides this our class contributed a good percentage of the athletes on this year's athletic teams. We had members winning letters in every field of athletics. We didn't do so much with business due to the fact that we were busy with prom the first semester. The officers of the class this year are: President, Sheldon Loughborough, VicefPresif dent, Mary Lee Hopkins, Secretary, Lydia Keowng and Treasurer, Sherman Sinaiko. 4 P Page Twenty -two ill EWl5ElIN5IN lIb First Row-G.

Sophomore Class The Sophomore class has progressed excellently under the leadership of President, George Kaesarg VicefPresident, Dave Milwardg Secretary, Willard Stafford, and Treasurer, James Julian. In the early part of May it launched a party for the entire school that went under the name of the Sophomore Shuffle . It was declared, by all people present, to be a great success. The class was well represented on the football, basketball, track, and swimming teams having letter men on all of them. Representing it in another line of school activities were stellar performers on the debating team and in the Forensic contests. Sophomores were among the actors of nearly all of the plays given this year. 4 P Page Twenty-three iIl EWl5EIlN5IN 3lE First Row-M. Wood, H. Whitefield, J. Householder, F. Brown. Second Row-D.

We joined clubs, entered contests, went out for plays, and generally became a fixture of the school. Our two debating teams won their debates, thus carrying on the good record handed down to us. Several of our boys went out for basketball. All this outside work has not injured our scholastic standing one bit, in fact you will always be able to find several Frosh on the honor roll. , For our officers we elected Hallie Lou Whitefield as President, John Householder as VicefPresidentg Marion Wood as Secretary, and Fordyce Brown as Treasurer. 1 P Page Twenty-four iIT EWl5ElIN5IN '3ID First Row-R. juday, S.

At Christmas time we donated, through the Public Welfare, gifts and a tree to a destitute family. Several outside speakers as Miss Mack, Miss Tucker, and Dr. Denniston have helped to make our meetings interesting and worthwhile. The Girl Student Club has taken over the school's lost and found department in an effort to aid the students to recover lost articles.

This year Thalia contributed toward the gold footballs that were given to the team. Two of our members wrote an excellent onefact play, which was presented along with two other plays, by the speech classes. The play was named Uncle Entertainsf' The operetta Rosamunde, a great success and one of the biggest productions which Wisconsin High School has ever offered, was sponsored by Thalia. One of the members had the leading female part, while many of the others took less important parts.

The play takes place in England at the time of the Napoleanic wars. Quality Street deals with two very quaint ladies, Miss Susan and Miss Phoebe, and a dashing young gentleman, Mr. Valentine Brown. Mr. Brown leaves for the wars to iight for England and returns to find a plain, quiet, maiden lady in place of the beautiful Miss Phoebe that he left. However, Miss Phoebe has merely placed her charm and love' liness aside for safefkeeping. And in the end Mr. Brown realizes that he loves Miss Phoebe, the charming, lovely, even quiet Miss Phoebe. John McCaffery and Jean Stafford took the parts of Mr. Brown and Miss Phoebe.

VALENTINE held sway over the Junior Prom of the class of '32. Large red hearts shielded the lights around the side walls of the upper gymnasium, and red and White streamers made an artistic heart-shaped frame around Al Thompson's Orchestra. About 125 couples fell into line behind the Prom King, John Wright, and his Queen, Rosemary Dudley, in the Grand March. Several faculty members, loyal alumni, and interested parents made merry together and pronounced this prom one of the loveliest in the history of Wisconsin High. The committees in charge who contributed to its success were: Decorations-William Keown, Publicity-John Weaver, Floor and Refreshments-Robert Heinze, Ticket Sales-Horace Winchell. 1 P Page Forty-tx o iIl EWl5ElN5IN 3ID Buttons At the end of the first semester the school presented the three act comedy, i'Buttons.

Together with the members of the cast he went over it, changing, cutting, or rewriting it where he felt that he could better it. The play was put on in excellent form by a vvellfdirected, able cast, the members of which were: john McCaffery, jane Werner, Lydia Keown, Douglas Cross, jean Staff ford, Albert Gallistel, Luna Leopold, and Julia Goodwin. 4 P Page Forty-three V iIT EWl'.iElIH5IN '3llE ALAN N ON ELS ' l BOYS' 151' vnu 1 ' Q Us, Q, '- , Vkx.

She coached the school debating team to a championship in the Southern Six and the fifth consecutive city championship. Under Miss Borcher's leadership school contests were held in public speaking. She coached the winners in these contests, and under her they won three firsts and a second in the league contests, two firsts and a second in the district contests, and a first and a fifth in the state contest. This is a marvelous record for a coach, and the school has been helped in many ways by Miss Borchers. 4 P Page Forty- ill EWI'iElIH5IN 5'IE G. Duggar J. Weaver H. Hagen J.

Through their uncanny logic and excellent delivery they fought their way to a victory in every match that they entered. In the contests with Rio, Fort Atkinson, Monroe, Baraboo, and Madison East, their entire schedule, they won unanimous decisions of all the judges. The team representing Wisconsin High on the negative side of the question was made up of Derald Ruttenberg, Blair Torgerson, and Willard Salford, with Bob Heinze as the alternate. The teams won the championship of the Southern Six league for the first time in history and received a beautiful loving cup. 4 P Page For-tyseight 'QW' .,i, l l w 1 l l 1 l l ...l ilT EWl5ElN5IN '3lE Blair Torgerson, Derald Ruttenberg, Willard Stafford, Robert Heinze. AFFirmative Debating Team Taking the affirmative side of the state question, Resolved: That chain stores are detrimental to the best interests of the American People, Miss Borchers' team went about its duties eagerly. In an effort to determine for themselves whether chain stores were detrimental, the members carried on research of their own by buying goods at various stores and checking on the cost and quality. The negative team, composed of Holger Hagen, George Duggar, and john Weaver, james Vaughn acting as alternate, cleverly adapted its case to meet the different types of argument, and won matches over Monroe and Madison East by 2f1 scores, and over Rio by a score of 3f0. It lost only one contest and that to the strong Fort Athkinson team by a 2f1 count. The teams won the city championship for the fifth consecutive year, thereby making the second installment on their second city cup. 1 P Page Forty-nine l EWl'illlN5lN 3lE Public Speaking This year the school continued the practice of holding a contest in public speaking, in which students from the entire school participated. The contest was divided into four separate sections having participants contesting in oratory, dec1amatory,extemporf aneous speaking, and extemporaneous reading. Many people coached by college seniors, Mr. Bahn, and Miss Borchers, took part in the contests. From these the three best speakers were selected to speak the following evening for the championships of the school. The students gave their talks before a good sized crowd in the school auditorium. Derald Ruttenberg won the contest in oratory, John McCaf'r'ery that in declamation, George Duggar that in extemporaneous speaking, and Douglas Cross that in extemporaneous reading. The league contest was held at Monroe to which five of the six high schools of the league sent representatives. With excellent speaking the Wisconsin High speakers came through with flying colors, for John McCaffery, Derald Ruttenberg, and George Duggar won first places in their respective contests, while Douglas Cross won second place in his contest. The next contest that the speakers entered was the district meet held at Whitewater. Here the boys were speaking against contestants from eleven high schools. Again the blue and white weathered the battle in fine condition. John McCaifery and Derald Ruttenberg defeated their opponents and won Hrst awards, with George Duggar receiving second in his contest. We were represented in the state contests by john McCaffery in declamation and Derald Ruttenberg in oratory. In this meet were representatives from nine districts. The best speakers of the entire state came to Madison determined to win. Derald giving The Miragei' won fifth place in oratory. John McCaffery carried the colors of Wisf consin High to the very top, and with his selection, 'iThe Dust of the Road, won first place in declarnation. It was a long hard fight to reach the top, for it is a real task to defeat all comers in four different contests. For the Erst time members of Wisconsin High were entered in the state contests, and for the first time one of our members won first place in one of these contests. . 4 P Page Fifty Music ilT EWl5ElN5IN 3lE MRS. RECTOR Mrs. Helen M. Rector faced a difficult problem when she came to Wisconsin High School last fall, for interest in music had decreased until at the beginning of this year a small orchestra was all that was left upholding music in the school. The students were no longer in the habit of looking at music as a form of enjoyment. However, Mrs. Rector soon revived the interest producing a 'rlne orchestra. Her call for girls to make a girls' glee club was answered readily, and in a short time she had a glee club of fortyfeight active girls. Although the boys presented a harder problem, she stirred them up by first forming a quartette. When the news was spread about that the boys were enjoying their work immensely, more of them turned out until at last there was a chorus of thirtyftwo boys working under Mrs. Rector's direction. To add to these achievements Mrs. Rector gave the school its biggest musical year since 1926. 4 P Page Fifty-three iill EWl5ElN5IN 'll First Row+A Nelson, Mrs. Rector CAduiso'rj, C. Van Hagan.

This club consists of senior high boys who are interested in music, and who want to do some work in this line outside of school. The regular work consists of one rehearsal a Week for separate groups of boys and one general rehearsal. The organization in its first year since 1926 has played an important part in the school activities. In February the club presented a minstrel show which was a tremendous success from every point of view. In April the opperetta Rosamunde was put on, the club taking a very active part in making this production successful. There are thirtyftwo members in the group. The officers for the year were: President, Charles Van Hagang SecretaryfTreasurer, Alan Nelson. 1 P Page Fifty-four Q 1 l EWl5lIlNllN llE First Row-B. Block, H. Nourse, M. Kraegc, A. Pi er, R.

Girls' Glee Club N Mrs. Rector aroused enough interest among the girls to organize the first girls' chorus since 1927. The club has one general rehearsal and one group rehearsal for individual groups each Week. The girls presented several very enjoyable numbers in conjunction with the minstrel show, and also sang at the Teachers' Convention at the Central High School. All of the girls took part in Rosamunde, which was presented in April. But perhaps the most important achievement of the club was the placing of four of its number on the chorus at the music convention which took place at Des Moines. The four girls picked were Ruth Anne Piper, Mary Lee Hopkins, Evelyn Napper, and Barbara Smith. The oiicers chosen at the beginning of the year are: President, Nona Walker, SecretaryfTreasurer, Alexia Boltz. 1 P Page Fiftyefive ilT EWl5ElH5IN 'llE Orchestra Since the orchestra this year was one of the smallest in the history of the school, it was difficult to mold a satisfactory organization, but Mrs. Rector with admirable courage and spirit overcame all obstacles and produced an organization of the highest grade. The orchestra played extremely well at the production of Buttons at Bascom Theatre, showing what great improvement had been made. Later at the production of Rosamunde the orchestra took its strenuous part admirably, playing excellently during the entire performance. Seven of the members were chosen to go to Des Moines to represent our school in the picked orchestra of the high schools of the Northwest. These members were: Besse Tatum, Howard Tatum, Betty Krauskopf, Priscilla White, Margaret Frey, Dorothy Wilson, and William Keown. 1 P Page Fifty-si ilT EVl5ElIH5IN '5'IE Rosamuncle Franz Schubert's operetta, Rosamunde,l' was produced by the boys' and girls' glee clubs in conjunction with the orchestra. With Mary Lee Hopkins and Frank Salerno playing the leading roles, and supported by the entire membership of both glee clubs, the play wasa decided success. Under the able direction of Mrs. Rector and Mr. Bahn the main parts were skillfully portrayed by John Wright, Douglass Cross, Ruth Anne Piper, Willard Stafford, and Robert Thistlethwaite. Through the use of beautiful, many-colored costumes it was made an elaborate production. The operetta was something new to this school, since a production of this type has never before been produced here. 4 Q r Page Fifty- sev ill EWl5lIlH5IN 'llE The Ministrel Show Under the direction of Mrs. Rector the Boys' Glee Club put on a gala affair known as The Minstrel Show, which was the first thing of its type ever produced in our school, and if we do venture to say anything, it was quite a success. Despite a snowy and windy night quite a crowd turned out to see Pete Nelson and his troupe of Alabama darkeys put on a snappy performance, sparkling with wit and humor. All of the boys were made up as negroes, and their dialect was very creditable. The stars of the affair were quite evidently the almighty Pete'i, jimmy Julian, and jack Wittwer. The program consisted ofa number of musical pieces given by members of the troupe, both solo and ensemble, and as a change from the music, a great variety of jokes. Walter Hanson did an excellent tap dance, and Shed Loughborough put on a good ropefskipping act. The climax of the evening came when Petel' and his entire troupe joined in the ever popular Sing You Sinners. The Girls' Glee Club did a very fine piece of work in their first public appearance of the year. Their program of five numbers came as a preliminary to the minstrel show proper and was very well received. All of the members in this year's chorus are new and have had no experience in sing' ing before an audience. Nevertheless they performed excellently and gave a good accoun of themselves in every way. Especially effective was their last number, a choral by Mendelssohn. It was sung entirely without accompaniment and was beautifully done. The orchestra played the opening numbers of the evening's program, and under the direction of Mrs. Rector they could not help but do a good job. They played some extremely difficult pieces with such delightful ease that it was a real pleasure to listen to them. They deserve a good share of the credit for the evening's success.

Wright: Well, my comb is a keepsake, an old one- Shermie: Well.l' Wright: And I don't like to part with itf' Freshman: Can a boy be punished for something he hasn't done? Mrs. Voss: Why I guess not.

Freshman: Well, I haven't done my Algebra. 4 P Page Fifty-eight ill EWl5lIllH5IN 'lIE Girls' Glee Club Sings at Central When the Girls' Glee Club performed before the teachers' convention at Central High School, they did a splendid job although there were some things which left something to be desired. I I Considering the fact that they were singing before an assembly of perfect strangers, and critical strangers at that, the chorus performed admirably. During the first number the piano was so unhappily placed that the chorus could not hear it, and consequently the number was a bit muddled. However this defect was remedied, and from then on everything went fine. Des Moines Through the line work of Mrs. Rector and her pupils a great distinction comes to our school this year, for ten members of the orchestra and girls' chorus went to Des Moines for the annual National Music Convention. At this convention a chorus of three hundred voices picked from all over the country, and an orchestra of two hundred twenty pieces, also carefully selected, performed. Keeping in View that the chorus consisted of only three hundred and the orchestra of only two hundred twenty pieces, and that there was the entire country to pick from, it is a great tribute to our school and to the people theme selves that ten people should be chosen from so small a school. The people that went are: Howard Tatum, horn, Besse Tatum, flute, William Keown, bassoong Priscilla White, cellog Elizabeth Krauskopf, clarinetg and Dorothy Wilson, piano from the orchestra, and Mary Lee Hopkins, soprano, and Barbara Smith, Ruth Anne Piper, and Evelyn Napper all altos from the glee club. Mr. Ryan: I hear youlve been doing a lot of reading lately. How do you like O'Henry? Miss Hoard: Oh, It's all right, but the peanuts stick in my teeth. Miss Weightman: What do you consider the greatest accomplishment of the Romans? Stan Eierman: Speaking Latin. Tom Gilbert: Waiter, this soup isn't fit for a pig. Waiter: just a minute and I'll get some that is. Mr. Phillips: How's Business? Mr. Hinderman: Swell, my wife gave me seven orders this morning. C. C. Coulson Qapplying for an excusel: 'Tve just been to the cemetery. Miss Faster: That's too bad. Who's dead out there? C. C. C.: All of them. 4 P Page Fifty-in e iIT 'Wl5EllN5IN '3IlE Thoughts , In deepest awe a tiny freshman scanned A mighty senior standing by, his mind Absorbed in weighty thought, and blind To all about.

His indomitable, driving spirit and keen knowledge of athletics made him the ideal man for the position of coach. Successful as was his last year, it was only a preparation for the brilliant work of this year, which resulted in the first conference football championship that has ever come to our school, and city, conference, district, and state basketball championships. Added to these records is the fact that his basketball team traveled through twentyfone games without a defeat. Coach Rippe has instituted a system of intrafmural athletics second to none in the city. Through his knowledge of boys he has gained the admiration and respect of all who came in contact with him. 4 P Page Sixty-ou iIT EWl5EllN5IN lIb ' ,. ii i' 7 ' Football Our first football championship! These are the words that can be marked on the tombstone of the 1930 football season. For the first time in the history of Wisconsin High School our team has won a championship trophy for football. A long unfilled va' cancy in our trophy case has at last been satisfied. The 1930 football squad was char' acterized by two attributes, smartness and fight. Their fight was always apparent, but it was mostly their ability to think quickly at the right time that spelled defeat for their opponents. They were a smart, heady team led by a hardfdriving captain. They deserved the championship. 4 ' v Page Sixty-t 0 . QrHfwls1:un5ln 1lb The Players Jon KELLY Captain, End Always steady-always dependable. The yards gained around JOe's end were negligible. His facility in catching Pete's passes helped in many a tight pinch. Joe also did most of the kicking. SHED LOUGHBOROUGH i Captain Elect, Tackle Shed's ponderous movements made many think that he was slow, but any tackle in the conference who played opposite him will vigorously deny this. Next fall he will be changed to fullback and should be an inspirational leader. PETE NELSON .Quarter Back Pete never missed one of COach's signals and ran the team with consummate skill. Pete was the one man that Coach never took outg his steadying influence couldn't be lost. FRED Bamanicr End Steady, always plugging, Fred shared White's position at end and iilled it admirably, He was playing in fast company and heldihis own. This is Fred's last year with us. HAROLD Fuss ' Guard Harold's bulk filled many a hole and stopped many a plunge. One had to use a club to get by him. He carried on the Fuss tradition of good football in old' time fashion. ' JOHN WRIGHT ' Guard John was a tower of strength in the line and held up his side by a continuous succession of brilliant plays. His return next year will be a big addition to the team-all this in spite of the fact that he and Pete were saving themselves for prom. JOHN Scmxua Half Back John was the speed demon of the team, and his jaunts down the field were beautiful to watch. No man in the conference could equal him in the open field. JACK WITTWER - Half Back Jack could handle those skittery legs and snakey hips of his in a careless, def ceiving manner that gained him many yards. His specialties were those knifmg journeys through tackle that always accounted for tive or ten yards. CORRELL STRONG Tackle Strong is a mild word. His weight and fight made him one of our outstanding linemen. By next year he should be one of the hardest hitting men in the conf ference. I 1 P Page Sixty-three ill EWl'.iEIlN5IN 'lID Bon JOHNSON Guard Hard working, Bob earned his letter through steady, dependable efforts. He would do any job that was given to him and would take on any player he met. He will undoubtedly add much to the team in the years to come. MAC WILKIE Half Back Mac was always ready with the goods when the team needed yards. He had the old fight and was always trying. Although he was knocked unconcious several times there was no man too tough for him. Mac will be with us for several years. JOHN ANDERSON . Half Back John's track work stood him in good stead. Although this was his first year of football, he has developed into one of the trickiest open field runners on the squad. We are glad that he will be back with team next fall. DAVE MILWARD Half Back Dave was a promising half back this year and by the end of the season had developed into a real threat. He kept a clear head and. was quick to pick his openings. Dave has two years with the team left. CHARLES AGNER I Fullback, Tackle When Butch smacked the line with his 200 pounds something always cracked, and it was rarely Butch. His work backing up the line made him invaluable. CHARLES WHITE End Chuck playing heady, driving ball all season proved to be a splendid partner for joe. His cooperation with his tackle marked his expert play. DICK STEWART Center Dick developed into a line center this year and filled the hole left by Bill Kinne in fine shape. Dick's passes were always accurate, and he was seldom withdrawn from the game. ' W. H. S. 25 Stoughton O Ragged football, but we won, so who cares. W. H.

The season of 193081 was a triumphal march through the best that our opponents could give. Twentyfone victories-no defeats! Wisf consin High had a reputation for cool, clean, fast basketball. A reputation that endured through a grueling season. A great part of the team's success may be attributed to Coach Rippe's experimentaf tion with a new method of practicing. He decided that he would relieve the players of all possible strain and accordingly had no practice on Tuesdays or Thursdays and also relieved them from work on the days following a game. The results speak for themselves. In the Southern Wisconsin Six, Monroe was the only team that gave us any difliculty. Coach Rippe's masterminding,coupled with the masterly play of the team,were too much for any of the other conference teams, and we took the conference championship without difficulty. In the City League we met West and Central once and East twice, winning all of the games handily. The victory over Central was due mainly to Alan Nelson's splendid shooting, his fifteen points being the only scores of the night for Wisconsin High. In fact it might be called Peties' Private Pointmaking Party. The excellent guarding of the entire team including joe Kelly, who was just recovering from an attack of flue, kept the Central team bottled up through the whole performance. Every one of the city series games were close and exciting with Wisconsin High playing nearly perfect ball throughout. District Tournament Edgerton, an old Conference rival, was our first opponent in the district meet. They had improved a lot since the last time that we had played them, and we were forced to play real basketball to win. They were ahead at the quarter and the half. At the end of the third quarter the score was tied, but in the last quarter Wisconsin High opened up their attack and won by a good margin. Brodhead was defeated in short order in the second game of the meet, and we went into the Hnals against our old rivals, Monroe. By Friday night practically all Wisconsin High had made the pilgrimage to Monroe, and the streets were packed with Prep rooters confident of victory, since we had beaten them twice before. Monroe, however,was equally determined to win a chance at the State race, and it was undoubtedly this spirit in the Monroe team that led them to give us the iight that they did. The first half was an auspicious start for Wisconsin High, for at the end of the second period we were leading by six points. However in the second half the Monroe team showed a complete revival of form and snatched the lead away from us to keep it until the final seconds of play. Those last moments of the game will remain long in the memories of Wisconsin High students. Forty seconds to go-Monroe leading by three points-the Red Devils congratulating themselves on their success. Forty seconds to go, and the team comes through with six points to win 25 to 22! The gym became bedlamg Monroe criedg we cheered, Petie grinned, Tolchin whooped, Wittwer was half hysterical. . . . And the dinner after the game-Mr. Kelly all decorated in blue and white-Billy Briggs and George Kelly-and the looking forward to the State Tournament. 1 P Page Sixty-five il EWl5EllH5IN '3lE First Row-Coach Rippe, G.

Wittwerp State Tournament Wisconsin High went into the State Tournament one of the favorites to win largely because of its unbroken string of victories and because of the Wisconsin High reputation for putting out good tournament teams. In Beloit, our Hrst opponent, we met an opponent who had annexed the championship of the Big Eight and had established a record nearly as enviable as our own. In a tense, exciting, defensive game we emerged with a two point victory. joe Kelly's brilliant game was a big factor in the win, his play stamping him as an all state guard. Anticipating an easier victory we entered the Wisconsin Rapids game a bit over confident. That this was a mistake became apparentsafter the first few minutes of play when an inspired Rapids outfit took the play away from us and put on a little exhibition all of their own. As the game went into the final minutes, play became frenzied, and the field house bulged, shook, and rattled with the vocal efforts of the whole Wisconsin High. When the dust and smoke had been cleared away, the dead and wounded counted, it became apparent that we had won, 14113, in an over time period. We had come from be' hind once more to tie the score in final seconds of the regular game, and had come from behind when a win seemed impossible in the overftime, with Loughy making the tying basket, and Wittwer making the winning free throw. QAmong the casualties must be counted Mrs. Wood's wounded dignity. Shame on you Mr. Ryan.j - Our semiffinal opponent was Watertown, another member of the league that we took 4 M--.

On the same night Racine Washington Park had decisively defeated our old friend Central, making them favorites to defeat us in the finals which were to take place the next night. But the way of a favorite is hard, and Racine found it just a bit too hard, for in a well nigh perfectly played game we defeated them, 2049. For the last time of the season we came from behind to win, since Racine was leading until the fourth quarter was well on its way. We had gained the lead twice before only to lose it so that we were trailing by two points at the end of the third section. Racine pushed their lead to four points before we got under way. However, we made good our reputation and annexed the State Championship and a splendid gold trophy. The Team PBTIE NELSON Captain, Forward Petie gave the team experience, clever ball-handling, and fine scoring ability. His all around floor work was unexcelled, and the value of his inspirational leadership and cool head cannot be overestimated. ' jon KELLY Guard Joe was that God's gift to coaches,-a high scoring guard. Defensively he was all the most exacting could ask. His deadly eye for the basket placed him second highest scorer in the league. Joe was given the birth of all-state guard. 4 P Page Sixty-seven iIT EWl5EllN5IN 3lE - ..M- Y.-.W ...

Form was Dode's special forte, and he was always a study in perfect synchronization. Dode almost never committed a foul, a real achievement in a guard. SHED LOUGHBOROUGH Forward Shed combined weight, drive, and a good eye for the basket. Since he was able to take the bumps, his presence in a pilefup under the basket was greatly appref ciated. We are glad he will be back next year. ART TOLCHIN Center Height and ight were two of Tolchin's attributes. He was a constant threat under the basket, it being the frequency of his tipfin shots that made him one of our high scorers. JACK Wirrwan Forward ,lack was the team's spark plug, a money player. He could always be def pended on for a basket in a pinch. His work in both the tournaments will be long remembered. DICK STEWART Center Dick did yeoman service all through the season, and his presence was felt both by our opponents and ourselves. His work in that last hectic Monroe game was great. HANK WH1TAKER Guard Hank, only a Sophomore, was remarkable for his fine development. Toward the end of the season he was playing with the coolness of a veteran. He and Loughy will form the nucleus of next year's team. 1930-31 W Wearers Football Kelly CCaptainj W'ilke Fuss White Nelson Agner Stewart Johnson Shaub Milward Loughborough Benedict Anderson Strong Wright Wittwer Basketball Hockey Nelson CCaptainQ Neckerman Lewis Qflaptainj Kelly Wittwer Anderson Tolchin Stewart Stevens Loughborough Whitaker Chase 1 Page Seventy 4 4 l i J w 4-f-1 ili 'iWl5EllN5IN 3lE The University of Wisconsin The Wisconsin High School ee Assembly ww In celebration of the winning of the State Basketball Championship 19303 I Wisconsin High School Auditorium, 2:30 P.M., April 1, 1931 PROGRAM Introduction of Members of State Championship Team of1923 ..........................

The team will be built around six letter men: Anderson, McCaffery, Schaub, Kelly, and Nelson, while Moores, Benedict, Kenny, Wright, Louhgborough, and Milward will add much to the strength of the lettermen. The members of the squad have been practicing at the University gym annex for some time and are in first class shape. In our Hrst meet of the year, the city meet, Coach experimented with several com' binations which later ought to develop into a great team. Wisconsin High placed third in the city meet with 27 points, being nosed out by Central who had 285 points. East won first with 41 M, While West was fourth. Golf The team will probably be chosen from among Chase, Wardle, Truax, Kenny, Wright, and Easterly. Without question the team should provide good competition for all comers. Coach has planned some dual meets 'with the city and league teams. 4 P . Page Seventy t ill EVl5EllN5IN 3lE First Row-C. Agner, J. Anderson, L. Chase, W. Lewis, G. Stevens, D. Kenney, W. Chickering.

Hockey Regardless of the fact that there was little ice this winter, the Wisconsin High School hockey team did much to advance the sport here. About twenty boys tried out, twelve being kept on the squad which was built around two letter men, Wayne Lewis CCaptainj and Charles Agner. This year the team made the first outfofftown hockey trip from Wisconsin High. It journeyed to Beloit and in a close game defeated the strong linefcity team 1fO. In the city league the team finished second with West placing first. Wisconsin High won three of its five games winning over Beloit once and East twice, and losing to West and Central once apiece. The four men given letters were Wayne Lewis, John Anderson, Louis Chase, and Gordon Stevens. Tennis L With Stafford, McCaffery, and Kaesar as a nucleus, tennis prospects look bright. Plans have been laid for an elimination tournament to be played during the latter part of April and early May. The twelve contestants are placed in two brackets with the winners of each playing for championship. Our entries in the state tournament will give competition that will make any player in the state extend himself. 4 P Page Seventy-three ilT EWl5ElIN5IN '3ID First Row-J. julian, C, Van Hagan, XV.

Although there were only two lettermen back to build the team around, there were several new boys that had had experience on other teams. Swimming crawl for Wisconsin High will be Van Hagan, Curkeet, Julian, Truax, White, and Loughborough. Holding down the position of breastfstroker will be Hagen, while Burton and Benedict will swim back' stroke. With Burton and Truax as the divers to finish up the team prospects are bright for a successful season. Coach: Milward, what would you do if the other team had the ball down in the corner at their own end of the floor? Milward: I guess that I'd move down the bench about ten feet so I could see the play. Hank W.: What's the most you've ever gotten out of your car.

It is a thrill to win even if a person is not beating a team like Beloit, Wisconsin Rapids, or Racine Washington Park. Tennis The seniors grabbed the honors in tennis when Katherine Krauskopf and Elva Waters won in the finals of the doubles tournament. It was a hard fought game, and we are proud of them. . Volley Ball Miss Boggs had a group of inexperienced girls on her hands when the volley ball tournament started. The situation looked rather hopeless. However, the seniors, with a great deal of laughing, screaming, and occasional catching of the ball, managed to win. A Basketball The basketball prospects looked more optimistic. There were many well played hard fought games. The seniors again copped the laurels with some admirable playing. Nice work! There were many good players this year. However, we would like to mention espef cially Betty Shaw, whose shooting helped keep the Freshmenls scoring up, Mary Juday and Elizabeth Fox, who were excellent forwards, jane Stafford and Caroline Weir, who were guards for the Juniorsg and Elva Waters, one of their forwards.

However, had one been there, one would have seen said F. D. return to their fold without having fought a fire. Had one been on said street earlier in said day, one might have seen two innocent looking young men fool with a certain fire box, hop into a certain Studebaker and leave hurriedly. If one knew the effectiveness of the great Madison Police Force, one would have known that the young playboys were soon to feel the iron hand of law. After all the talk of Spumone CNelsonl I will find it hard to do him full justice. You have all heard of his famous Stock Racket. If you were to know the facts of this bit of master racketeering, you would realize that he is, indeed, the king of the game. It has been rumored about, by those who, know, that Mr. Spumone has started a new racket! Hold on to your false teeth children. This school is honesty personified. If a person were to lose a pen, eversharp, note' book or other articles of such great value, the finder would of course return said article to its rightfull owner or, if the owner were unknown, to the Lost and Found Dept. in the oilice. If the owner's name were on the article the finder would seek out the loser, even to the ends of the earth. I would that we were all as honest as some of our number.

Miss Katharine Krauskopf today opened her campaign for Assembly' woman-atflarge. Her main plea for votes, we gathered from her impasf sioned oration this afternoon, is on the grounds that she believes in the youth of today, and will recommend suffrage for children from twelve years up. Miss Geraldine Eggers, Miss Krauskopf 's attractive campaign manager, announced that any checks mailed to her would be appreciated. The TatesyfWatesy Night Club was raided early this morning by members of the Prohibition Squad led by Captain Donovan Every, National President of the Gentle' men's Christian Temperance Union. Miss Marian Lucas, well known in Verona night life and hostess at the TatesyfWatesy, and Miss Besse Tatum, charming featured enter' tainer were taken into custody with Wayne Lewis, head waiter. The management announced, how' ever, that the club will reopen next week. As a special feature Frank Salerno and his peppy Two Timers will be on hand with Elma Christian' son crooning. Something entirely new in Ladies' and Gentlemen's Ready to wear is being undertaken by Miss Elizabeth Tredennick, who is opening an ex- clusive shop at 35 S. Park Street. The shop will carry original models by Worth, Chanel, Poiret, and Miss Margaret Gailey. All models will be displayed by mannequins upon request. Miss Elaine Paul, assistant librar' ian in the New Glarus High School, will address the Female Uplift Guild at their weekly meeting on Tuesday on L'The Work of Miss Letitia Mc- Quillan in Wisconsin High! The body of the woman found brutally murdered in the pentfhouse apartment of Mr. Holger Hagen, notorious man about town, has been tentatively identihed as that of Miss Nona Walker, ambitious young mani- curist. The theory has been advanced by Mr. Chester Coulson, detective in charge of the case, that the pet can' ary, in a moment of uncontrollable rage, committed the hideous crime, and he promises a sensational expose at an early date. Income tax officials claim that Charles Agner, house to house vanilla extract salesman, has failed to pay income tax for the past four years, the total amount for this time being 514.759, Miss May Robinson is doing her bit for her country in this time of trouble in the Zulu Islands by offer' ing her services as nurse to the wounded soldiers. Among former Madison boys in whose dismal lives she is a ray of brightness, are john Clark, Lowell Morehouse, and Fred Benedict, all of whom enlisted in the navy several years ago, prompted bv an overfwhelming desire to see more of this big, beautiful world. Hill's Department Store offers as a special attraction for Tuesday only, Miss Virginia Kiesel, nationally known mannequin, modelling Indian blankets. Colorful and inexpensive. A new trend toward clusters of bewitching curls above the right ear was predicted by Monsieur jose Kellee, Madison's foremost hair' dresser, upon his recent return from Paris. The editor takes pleasure in an' nouncing that Miss Hannah Greeley, an authority on the subject, has conf sented to conduct a daily column of advice to the lovelorn, exclusively for this paper. Mr. Blair Torgerson, who has been at large since his recent escape from the Home for Retarded Boys, was arrested here today after police had been set on the trail of a con- scienceless villain who was selling used postage stamps to unsuspecting school children. Mr. james Vinje, charming, well- educated young gentleman,announces that he will accept any dinner or theatre engagements proffered by de- sirable women. Mr. Vinje has gray eyes, is six feet tall, and admits being a splendid dancer. 4 P Page Seventy-eight ,ill EWl5ElN5IN 3Ib Miss E. Montgomery's Daily Recipe-Spinach-The Children's Delight. Candied Spinach. Mix with one half of a boiled potato as much powdered sugar as is needed to get the proper thickness. It must be so thick as to practically fall apart at this stage, as next you add one cup spinach juice. Mold into attractively shaped bits, and decorate each ,piece with a sprig of spinach. Mr. john Cookson, charming young bachelor, has been signed by the National Biscuit Company to broadcast bed-time stories over their better bed-time hour. His mag' netic personality endears him to the little ones. Mr. Carl Panzer will speak at the Armory on Wednesday evening un' der the auspices of the Salvation Army. Mr. Panzer is touring the country speaking on The Evils of Smoking. Bring the children. Miss Pauline Reinsch is in New York, playing in the popular musical comedy, Dead Shot Dick. Miss Reinsch's sympathetic portrayal of an off stage laugh is attracting to her many fans. At the sailing of the Watt-rania on Monday, john McCaffery, noted scientist, leaves for South Africa with Miss Mary Jacobson to hunt microbes, leaving behind his bride of two days, the former jane Read. Mrs. McCaffery tearfully announced that she would be brave and eagerly await John's return, as she knew he was leaving only in the interest of science. Madison's biggest preview was held last evening at the Majestic. At this spectacular affair, attended by the city's elite, including Assisf tant Fire Chief and Mrs. Paul Roc' key, Miss Jean Stafford escorted by Gordon Stevens, and many other notables in social and educational circles, the city payed homage to its son, Harold Fuss, juvenile favorite of the movie world. Mr. Fuss is appear' ing in Jazz Boy, needlessly sup' ported by an able cast. The battle for the office of State Treasurer promises to an interest- ing one. Mr. Charles Van Hagan is opposing the defending office holder, Mr. Sol Levitan. Mr. Van Hagan promises, if elected, to become as interesting a characterfaboutftown as his wellfknown predecessor. The uprising in Centralusia is be' ing quieted, and order has at least temporarily been restored. Recent dispatches disclose the recent ascent of Miss Gertrude Bruns, former Madison club woman, to the position of dictator. As a forceful, energetic leader is needed, Madisonians believe that Miss Bruns will be successful. The Rev. James Rhodes has acf cepted a call extended to him by the Bethesda Temple of Paris, Wisconf sin. He will leave for the new post on October 1. A former school-mate of Mr. Rhodes, the Rev. George Wolff, is embarking soon for far off Zurgoblania where he intends build' ing up a Christian Utopia among the natives. Personal: Richard, come home to your wife and children. All is for- given, and I've given up cross-word puzzles, too. Mildred Wagner Stewart. fOontinued on page 1045 One of the most popular plays'on Broadway owes its success in a large measure to the talented female imperf sonator, john Soule. This is Mr. Soule's first season on the stage, he having been previously employed in the Bibbs Hat Pin Co. as demon' strator. Miss Patricia Paxson's latest novel has just come from the publishers and we predict that it will be an instant success. Doors, the work of this popular writer, is based we are told, on a theme which was the work of Miss Paxson's high school days. Daily Drivel by Margie Leonard, fsuccessor to Walter Winchellj.

Mrs. Mary Dudley Montgomery Skidmorefjones Leopold Beanblossom Mahturama Nelson, toast of the social world of eight continents, is securing a divorce from Petey Nelson, telephone lineman for the Madison Public Utilities. I thought I could be happy reliving my child' hood, Mrs. Nelson announced to the press, but while I have become worldlyfwise and experienced, Petey has remained a sweet, innocent boy, too much of a change after my life with Rajah Mahturama, and with the sophisticated Mr. Leopold. 4 P Page Seventy-nine Jl. , ill 'llI5lIlN5IN 3Ib, Sept. 1-The boys give up their shovels and swimming suits to start football under Coach Rippe.

' 4 P Page Eighty-one ilT EVl5ElN5IN '3lE Library in General The first thing I noticed as I entered the room was seventyfiive or so people seated at various tables. Then I noticed the books. Books everywhere, placed unevenly on the large green metal shelves. The floor was only partly covered with a nondescript linoleum, and the crude grey cement, or whatever school floors are made of, showed white by con' trast. The walls were originally a soft cream color, but now there were white blotches of plaster that I suppose had been used to fill up the cracks. Thirteen plain glass shades hung in various places from the ceiling. Altogether the room looked unfinished. One small desk, with a wastepaper basket on one side and a filing cabinet on the other, stared at me as I stood in the doorway. The owner of the desk was wandering around the room, first sitting at one table, then at another-giving some sort of advice. Hannah and I sat down at a nearby table which was both unoccupied and far away from the small desk. With much diiliculty we saved the remaining chairs for two more friends. It seemed that everybody else in the study hall wanted to sit there, but after we sent away many discouraged people, the two selected ones came. The bell rang, and I spent a slipshod Efteen minutes on my French, looked at my Beowulf, and then turned away. Hannah sat next to me, and she and Marian were passing back and forth a piece of paper. Probably they were writing about boys, or clothes, or were making catty ref marks about teachers or people in the study hall. The curtains blew in at the windows, and Dave Milward scuilled over the sandy floor and Hxed them. Maybe he had all his work done. I hope so. He accidentally knocked his books onto the floor. He received a look from the wandering owner of the small desk, and a little cry from Marian. Mary Montgomery got up to get her third Vogue, while Marian had gotten so interested in a new serial that she was only on her first Delineator. Someone from the other end of the room walked by and got a book. Everybody glanced up, but she didn't careg she was the little, pretty type, and probably didn't mind glances, if they were admiring. Hannah asked me the History assignment, but I had forgotten. I never can ref member things when they're done. I heard somebody behind me crumpling up a piece of paper. He very likely didn't want to do his History or Latin anyway. Behind my left ear May Robinson and Elaine Paul were talking in loud, excited whispers, and be' hind-my right ear a studious boy was memorizing outloud a geometry proposition. Mary asked me what to write about for a theme for English, and after I had suggested several topics, she took one of her own choosing, and then returned her Vogue. She did' n't get much work done because the bell rang in three minutes. A little seventh grader tiptoed by me to the encyclopaedia, while the star football player clumped by to the fiction.

We all have thoughts once in a while, no matter who we are. CI once heard that Joe Kelly had a thoughtj Don't laugh. It's a fact! But to get on with the story,-I was thinking of a method to eliminate the evils of Latin. First of all I called together a few scholarly chaps f Fat Christianson and people like himl, and revealed to them my gigantic plan. And ,folks, what a plan! Pig Latin! Yes every day Pig Latin-or if you prefer-Pig Latin. Well I might even be so brave as to say Pig Latin. CBy this time a few of you more intelligent people will realize that I was thinking about something which had to do with Pig Latinj. We agreed to have the name of our first text book Etterbay Igpay Attinlayf' In the first ten pages of this text we were to explain the essentials of Pig Latin. In the remaining fourf hundredfninetyfnine pages we would explain what we meant in the first ten pages. Then we would publish another book, a small one of about four hundred fifty pages, entitled, Who Inhabits the Fijksylzmn Islands in the Summer, or Pal fAll of which means absolutely nothing or less, but I thought that it sounded quite nice, so I put it downj After we had completed our plans for publishing, publicity, etc. we were ready to start. You say to yourself, This guy must be crazy. What did he intend to use for money? Well, I forgot to mention that problem. After the four of us CI forgot whol had saved up our allowances for a few weeks, we gathered together our savings and found that it came to an odd four billion or so. And one day it happened-tears come to my eyes when I think of it-My poor darling little pet flea, Oscar, got in a fight with Oslo, my elephant, and hit him so hard he broke his arm and wrist. Blood poison set in and-well, he just didn't live very long after that, is all. I was so chagrinned over this loss that I gave up the whole Pig Latin business. The four billion dollars which we had saved fell out of my pocket one day when I was standing on my head. When I realized that itwas gone, fabout a week laterD,I came back, and it wasn't there. I guess there aren't any honest people left in this world. -HENRY WHITAKER john Cookson: How are you getting along with your job? I. Vinje: Swell, the boss is interested in me now.

I This astonished me not a little. Is it possible that so potent a thing as a smile can thus be driven into a corner and pinned down with mere words? This statement aroused my interest in the subject, and for a most enjoyable fifteen minutes I tested its varacity to the fullest extent. I would fix my baleful gaze on some student until my stare penetrated his consciousness, he would look up and I then would grin joyously. The responses were widely different, yet all-or with few exceptions-would come under Webster's definition. Once a boy was thus provoked to an angry snort. The corners of his mouth curled and his eyes lit up. Yet it was not a smile. I found its definition under 'idisgustf' I never did like that fellow anyway. Marian had dimples at the corners of her mouth when she smiled, and I wasted an extra minute or two on her from pure pleasure. Donovan had a nice smile too. It formed ruddy pouches under his eyes, over which he peered with a joyous, hailffellowfwellfmet grin which was most pleasant. Eleanor's smile was rather watery, and the corners of her mouth curved but little out of their usual slightly downward twist. I turned hastily to Marian to recover my spirits. I feared that the tears which the effort of smiling seemed to evoke in her eyes would brim over. Then the bell rang, and all over the room mouths curved upward, and opened to release greetings between friends long separated and oppressed. There was a general migration toward the library door-and soon they were gone-smiles and all. - - Chemistry Quiz . I glance nervously through the two long chapters. There is so much I should know. The awful, Books closed, is heard. I try not to obey the command and take a last glance at the laboratory preparation of sulphuric acid or perhaps the properties of sulphur dioxide. As the inevitable mimeographed sheets are handed out, I realize that I have completely forgotten what is formed when nitric acid reacts with copper, but hydrogen is always a good guess. I grow more and more worried as I look down the long list of questions, here and there Blling in something with an undecided hand, but usually leaving a blank. Blanks, blanks, there seem to be nothing but little white spaces where something should be. Gradually the questions get clearer, they don't seem so utterly impossible. just as I get an inspiration, the bell rings. I scribble frantically, but it is no use. I hear somebody say, Tough, wasn't it? and the answer, I'1l say. 4 P Page Eighty-nine iIT EWl5ilIH5IH 3lE To Whom it May Concern Oh Carl has wonderful red lips, His eyes are a marvel to see- Novv Margie's stepped into the picture, Oh bring back my Carl to me!

This first is a truly pathetic couple because a short athletic brute is headfoverfheels about a tall, maidenly Prima Donna. His hair is no particular color, but his beard a very particular length. Perhaps he is trying to fit Rosalind's bill, I would kiss as many of you that had beards that pleased me . Her complexion is a suntan color, enlivened with something more than nature's gift Cbut very littlej. They aren't a Tilly and Mac when they walk down the street, but there are unmistakable similarities. II. The second is a very good romance which so far has proceeded with all Emily Post's laws for good behavior strictly adhered to. He is a soldierly looking boy, with tightly curled hair. In vain he combs it-the curl is still there. The heroine is a little aloof to the advances of her swain. Her nose and chin keep a respectable distance from the floor. Her blonde wavy hair is drawn back into a good pug, which we have been told, stares the suitor square in the face during the whole French period. III. The third young man has brains, but less brawn. He is neither tall nor short, but his hair is the latter. And yes, he plays basketball. She is a pink and white piece of featheriness-a blonde with large brown eyes. CThese are sought by another D She has a fair complexion, and a neat wave in her light hair. It's a secret, but the press always announces everything first. Yes, it's really true this time! IV. Yes, tall boys have a following. There's no doubt about it. This one is one of those. Although he doesn't regularly go to Wisconsin High this year, he appears frequently to see his lady friends. Prominent among them is his old stand by, Ruth johnson, But she isn't the one I must describe, but another girl who is a decided brunette with large liquidQ'?j eyes, and hair the color of a dark fudge sauce. They are a fine couple-both tall, both handsome, and well-we needn't say all we know. V. This next is a school children's romance. She's the typical princess with hair of spun gold and eyes like the deep blue sea. Her suitor is the king's son of tofday, with the same coloring as hers. She is short and her flaxen hair with a modern permanent, hangs over her shoulders in the correct manner for one in her position. We predict a happy future for the two. fContinucd on page 10351 4 V Page Ninety-t iIT EWl5ElIN5IN '3lD Page Ninety-tlwee ' 'WI5EllN5IN '3lE Ps-st Meow-owl It was the night of Margaret's party, and I happened to be waiting outside the girls' dressingfroom for my compact and lipstick. The transom was open and the voices could be heard very distinctly. At first, I was not interested in what was said, but sud' denly a particularly catty remark caught my attention. 'Tm sure that she got it at Hill's, for I saw one there just like it. Well, camea second voice, what were you doing at Hill's? There was a gale of laughter, as a small girl flung open the door and flounced out. I guess that'll hold her for a while. It ought to. She's too snooty for words. By the way, I saw Alice when I came in. Who's she with? John, of course. I'Iasn't she a goodflooking dress on? I'll say. You know she has style all right. She can wear 'most anything and make it look like a million dollars. Oh, no she can't, broke in a third voice. I saw her some place about three weeks ago and she looked awful! Jean, I saw Paul Porter today. Did you really? Did he talk to you? Not much! Did he ever? You always had him snared back there in your corner. More power to me, dearyf' -but, Hannah, this time a new voice. I just can't dance with him. He's too short, and I feel like a perfect sap, towering above him. You don't look bad, though, Mary. -still I bet you don't go straight home. This was said by Jean. I'll bet I do. He's on his good behavior. Just the same you have to admit that there's a certain driveway in Shorewood that's very tempting and he might slip. Well, he won't tonight. I trust him implicitly. Who'd she come with? I heard another ask. ujacky, and say- Who's this? Who's this? someone asked anxiously. Betty. Oh. Say have you seen her dress? Isn't it a joke? So short and that awful sickly yellowfgreen. Ughln Maybe they can't afford anything better. Well, but now that you can get such cute things so cheap, why pick that? And her- just at this moment a tall, rather striking girl came around the corner and pushed open the dressingfroom door. There was a tense silence for just a second, and then one of the slyer cats turned with a smile. Oh, Betty, you look darling tonight. That dress is gorgeous and so becoming. as un ss as 4 P Page Ninety-four iT EWl5EllN5IN llD Thank you, Midge. You look peachy, yourself. Well,AI ought to. I paid twenty-Iive good dollars for this dress. Well, come on, Andy, let's'go. Two girls emerged, looking at each other significantly, and then giggled as they rounded the corner. I followed, feeling a bit disappointed and sick. The motto of Hares- foot, slightly changed, flashed through my mind: All our girls are friends, yet everyone's a cat.

Then instead of drinking immediately he slouches there waiting for the water to become cold, anticipating the pleasures of his drink like a connoisseur of rare wines. He accompanies this waiting with various smackings of his lips and facial con' tortions-evidences of a watering mouth. Finally he drinks, long, blissfully, and with all the sensuous pleasure of a Lucullus before a cup of iced Burgundy. Flicking the water from his chin, he blinks his watery eyes, picks up his brush, and moves on. -JOHN MCCABBBRY 4 P Page Ninety- five ill EWl5lIlN5IN llE Revenge The third law of motion. Oh heck! I know all of that stuff backwards, and he'll never in the world call on me! I don't suppose that I dare talk with Ed. As sure as I start reading that magazine he'll see me-I guess that I'd better just sit here and try to look intelligent for a change. Voices droned on endlessly about bodies in motion and other things equally irrelevant to a beautiful day in Spring. There's the Eternal Egghead asking some dumb question. The laugh has subsided and old Flusher is explaining-patiently. What is he saying? Why, the man's nuts. That isn't the way that energy is released. He isn't trying to kid the Egghead, is he? No! He's just naturally wrong, and what's more he's trying to bluff his way through it. He's got his nerve wasting our time and handing out misinformation. At first I thought that I would let it go. But no-I remember that I had detected this particular teacher bluffing before. So I rose and said very quietly, Mr, Flusher, will you remain a few minutes after class? I would like to talk with you. He was a trifle defiant, but I was resolved not to relent. He came to my desk respectfully enough, so I waited until the kids had leftg then I turned to him and said, Mr, Flusher, I don't want to be severe with you, but I have caught you trying to bluff before, and I want you to realize that there isn't room for a bluffer here. We students want to respect our teacher, but we cannot respect a man who hands out misinformation in such a manner. After this you will know our lesson at least as well as we do. Then in a kindlier tone, I know you have the brains-if I thought you were just naturally dumb I wouldn't say a word, but I know you have it in you if you only try. Mr. Flusher gasped, started to reply with some excuse, thought better of it and silently departed, seeing that I was through with him. I sat and thought-profoundly-then suddenly-a great way off-I heard my name. With a start I straightened up and looked foolishly about at a much amused class and Mr. Flusher.

Donal: Ch, I've got the first page almost filled. 4 P Page Ninety- ill ':lll5Elll5IN 'lIE What Price School Spirit I walked up the steps of the high school one bright afternoon, feeling as happy as though I owned the world. Since I had just received an entire three dollars for doing some odd jobs I had good reason to feel so. With that huge sum I would be able to go places and do things in a big way. At least so it seemed to me. I jumped down into the basement waving at several friends in a condescending manner as I did so. I meant to put my coat in my locker before I went upstairs to plan an eventful weekfend. This seems innocent enough, but it happens that my locker is set Hrmly between those of the illustrious Georges-George Wolff and George Neckerman. I had scarcely placed my things in my locker when I felt a tap on my right shoulder, and turning, my eyes met those of the smiling George Wolff. ' We play Monroe tonight, Jimmie, he reminded me, waving a pack of small green tickets before me. Q , Since I had been in similar circumstances before, it was no mystery to me that I was elected to purchase one of the little pasteboards. Of course I would buy one. I had lots of money to spendg so after relieving me of a quarter, George relieved me of his presence. I tucked my ticket safely away in my purse and was reaching for my books when I felt that well known, light, but determined tap of George Neckerman. ' Buy a ticket to the game, Jimmie, he asked, his eyes sparkling as he thought of the joy of taking away a quarter from me. 'Tm terribly sorry, Dode, but I just bought one from George Wolff, I replied airily and turned to go. . - I hadn't taken more than a step before he tapped me on the shoulder again. When I turned back, he drew a long, brown book -from his pocket and began thumbing through the pages that marked previous battles of his. Since I had seen one of those notebooks before, I knew what to expect this time also. Wouldn't you like to buy an annual? It is going to be better this year than ever before. The editor told me so himself. You really better get one now. After putting the book in my hands he took out a pen, filled in the blank, and tore it out while I was still trying to realize what was happening. A dollar and a half please, he said quietly. - Mechanically I drew out my purse and gave him the money. As I started to put my purse away he stopped me with his hand. Show your school spirit by buying one of these little rooter tags, he said, waving a bunch of them in my face. Since I didn't object, he placed one in my hand, took a nickel from me, and disappeared up the stairs in search of more victims. I wasn't positive that I liked the idea, but it was well to buy the annual while I had some money. It was also quite nice to show my school spirit. So I started up the stairs with my fortune more than cut in half.

She seems to have gotten hold of a real problem. Her pupil diiiiculty analysis was fine. . . . The whole basketball team congregating together in a corner. I wouldn't vouch for their conversation.

I must get the battery charged in the car. It wouldn't do to let it run down. No, Jean, you can't have a quarter. I don't approve of movies after school or sodas either. It's for the basketball game? Well, why didn't you say so? I Wish jean were a little neater. I hate to see her going around with her shoe untied .... Mr. Davis, I had to have some mimeographing done in a hurry so that I'm afraid that Miss Faster didn't have time to do that poetry for you. You Won't need it today? Well, that makes everything all right. Say, are you and Mrs. Davis going to be home tomorrow evening? Mrs. Ryan and I will drop over about eight. . . . I'll have to speak to Mrs. Burr about the bulletin board. Some of these announcements have been on there for weeks .... I must go down and quiet the eighth graders in the locker room. I can hear them clear up here. III. This has been a hectic day. I don't want to go to that banquet tonight. Oh well- There's that practice teacher Miss Guyles told me about. I meant to speak to her. . . Wearing riding pants to school. You'd think she had more sense. . . That bell scared me. I must be jumpy today. Of course Sheldon would be the iirst one down the stairs. These athletes seem so full of animal spirits that they just can't refrain from jumping the last four steps of a flight. Tolchin too. . . I wish they were all as quiet as Dode. But then, I can't imagine Shed as anything but boisterous. They're a ine looking bunch of boys though. I'm proud to be Principal when I see them on the floor. They don't look as if we dragged all our athletes from the dock yards. . . These halls are entirely too noisy. You'd think they could get their books and go home with less noise than this. Trouble is, most of them think that this is a little social hour, and in their efforts to make it a sucf cess they nearly tear the school down. Must remember that. It'll get a laugh in assembly. You've got to brighten your address with a little humor. That's why the talk I gave this morning was such a success. I'm glad everyone remembered what I said. . . Oh Lord! There's two gum wrappers and some theme paper right at the foot of the waste basket. Aftei all the time I took. . . Oh well that's life I suppose. I hope Gertrude sent my tuxedo shirt to the 3F.

Although the minstrel show was still three weeks away, they convinced me that I should buy my ticket early to make sure that I got one. I dragged on up the stairs, all of the life and most of my money gone from me. Every' thing went all right until I reached the iirst floor. Immediately I was set upon by half a dozen young girls intent upon selling me a beautiful blue and white pomfpom. Since a nickel more or less meant nothing to me any more, I relieved myself of the pack by pur- chasing a pomfpom. Heaven knows what I could do with a pomfpom, but nevertheless I had one. I hurried into the History room in the hope of getting away from sellers, but my hopes were in vain. I had hardly sat down when my old friend Holger dashed up to sell me a ticket to the debate which was to be held that afternoon. Since Holger is a good talker, he left me with a tenfcent ticket and seventyffive cents remaining from my fortune. Soon John McCaffery came up to me looking his darkest. Wont' you buy a ticket to the show? It's only fifty cents. All Red Domino mem' bers are supposed to buy at least one, you know. I knew it only too wellg so before he left I had exchanged fifty cents for a ticket to the show. When I stowed it away with the others, I now had tickets with every color of the rainbow. Suddenly I realized that if I was to have my big weekfend I had better move fastg so I hurried out into the hall on my way to the Badger where I was going to get a heavy malted with the twenty cents that were left me. However, the pomfpom sellers had given way to a candy sale, the patrons of which immediately set upon me. In desperation I threw them a nickel in return for a bag of melted fudge and dashed down the steps. Upon finding Luna and Bert in the Badger I altered my plans a bit. The light malted that I could have gotten with my fifteen cents turned into three cokes, of which I received one. So I had my big weekfend on a nickel coke and half a dozen colored, cardboard tickets. 4 P Page One lumrlrcd l l 1 1 l l l l 1 l I M4 il EWl5lIIlN5IN 3ID SENIOR CLASS OBITUARY CContinued from page 851 NAME DIED OF DYING WORDS BEQUEST Montgomery, Mary Being a good girl GJ We can take a street car Her mirror to Barbara Smith Morehouse, Lowell Smiling at Miss johnson in History class What did you say?

The last lady in question totters on her toes a good deal, while through her curly hair of an extremely dark shade of brown a red ribbon is wound and tied in a neat bow about the forehead. Her eyes are gray, verging on a color rare in eyes-green. The conf geniality of these two can be noticed by anyone who has a third floor locker near the Chemistry room. He is a blonde, slightly taller than his ladyflove, with a jerky, halffscared voice, while she converses in a sweet, ladyflike tone. The courtship, we venture to state, must be almost over, and we watch with anxiety for any new signs of progress. KFASTER! SALLY, FASTER' fContinued from page 104D 3. The bulky halfback pierced the gap The linesmen had beat thin, And hugging to 's romantic heart The cherished stout pigskin For death or glory he was off, Goalward he quick did sally While witless thousands rent their throats With ullululations bally. They bellowed forth the sweetest words The halfbacks dreams could master. He ran amid a blissful sound Of Faster! Sally faster! 4. From Chief to freshmen, all are bound In chivalric devotion- All-tlaming chemist, patiently Who guides atomic motion, Historian, librarian Grammarian, and moron- Hang round the sacred precinct, daft Her countenance to pore on, Reluctantly at night they leave Each heart with longing vaster, With sighs, and groans, and murmured prayers- Ah, Faster! Sally Faster! -Iam AND ANON. 4 ' P Page One hundred three ill Elll5lIlll5IN llE SENIOR PROPHET CContinued from page 795 Miss -lean Stafford will broadcast over W. H. S.'s television hour from 10:07 to 11:07 this evening in her regular weekly program. W. H. S. is the hrst Madison station to have a regular television program, and feels particularly fortunate to have secured the services of charming Miss Staff ford. 'See below. One of the big society events of the week was the studio dinner dance given by Mr. Thomas Gilbert, popu- lar artist's model, in his charming apartment. Many smart people at' tended. For complete list see current edition of Madison's Four Hun' dredf' Misses Margaret Frey and jane Werner left rather unexpectedly last night for an extended visit to parts unknown. 'Mr.-Frederick Barlow, head of the Barlow Tent and Awning Co., who has been convalescing from a recent illness, is leaving for the Zulu Islands where, in spite of the dis- turbances. he hopes to be completely rejuvenated. While hurrying home from work on Tuesday afternoon, Mr. Fred Gillen, 26, slipped on the icy pave- ment, and fell beneath the wheels of a speeding Austin, driven by Miss Beatrice Fuller, also of this city. Miss Fuller is not expected to live. Mr. Gillen, who escaped practically without injury, is not being held. II Fasterl Sally, Faster 1. The foeman leaguered thick his town,- The earl was getting famishedg A sally through the posternfgate Might bring him food, long vanished Except in shape of rats and snails And pacihst complainers. At eve he mustered through that port His lustiest retainers, And bade them come with beeves and corn Or not at all. Their master, With weighty mace, he sped them on, Hey, faster! Sally faster! 2. When Sally went to Michigan, Her heart was all aftwitterg She heeded not that joys grow pale, And recollections bitter. She worshipped atheletic birds, CI-lands clasped in adorationj But scorned debaters, greasy grinds, Authors of bad oration. She could not live with zest enough- She feared ennui would blast her- Her eager heart still urged her on- Oh, faster! Sally, faster! CConrinucd on next page-J 4 P Page One hunilrcrl four ig, i. .
