MISS MARIGN DAGNAN
we dedicate this book as a mark
of our love and appreciation
Progress
Uur school, we hope, typilies progress. It was not so long ago that the ma-
jority of pupils learned their three r's in the little red school house of which the
poets and song writers often tell us. The school consisted of only one roomg it
was furnished with wooden benches and desks, and a stove which seemed ready
to bake the pupils who sat near it while allowing the others to shiver and wish for
its warmth. The teachers were poorly paid and could not afford to have much
education or training.
Today we are taught, not only the three r's, but a host of other subjects in
a modern structure which does credit to the community. It has, not one room, but
more than two score of them, provided with excellent furniture and equipment.
Gymnasiums, a library. and an auditorium are provided as means towards our
Ending and keeping health, knowledge, and enjoyment. NVe are not scorched by
a Ere from a stove, but we enjoy the latest system of heating and ventilation.
Truly, this is an age of progress in which we ,are living. VVho knows what
the 'future will present to aid knowledge seekers to reach their goal?

Old Schools and New
Hurray for a day of fun! Our school is having a visiting day, and a few of
us have decided to visit one of the old schools. As we come down the well-worn
path, we see set back among the trees a log school house. A small creek runs
along the side, and a hum of voices can be heard in the stillness.
VVe open the door, and as we enter, we notice first of all the seats at which
the children are sitting. They are long benches with many initials carved upon
them.
Qne side of the room is for the girls. and the other is for the boys. There
are only two little windows high in the wall, but the sun is streaming in through
the cracks. VVe notice on the boys' side of the room that the holes are larger where
there are knot holes and the cracks more numerous.
The teacher is a middle-aged man with glasses on the end of his nose. Behind
him on a nail we see several birch switches of various sizes. He sits there like a
judge on a raised platform with the dunce chair near his desk.
As the children are called up to recite, they stand on a chalk mark. facing
the master. their hooks in their left hands, awaiting his command to read. The
room is rather quiet, and the voice of the reader echoes in the stillness.
As we are sitting here, we think of the school we have just left. It is situated
on a busy corner with busses and automobiles hurrying by. lt isa large building,
nearly a block long. with long sidewalks bordered by flowers. NVhen we enter the
large door, we walk up the steps and down the long corridors. We enter a large
room and find a group of people engaged upon some problem or other. The teacher
is sitting at a large desk helping and directing the class in their work. The room
is provided with plenty of material so that each pupil will be able to secure all the
help he desires.
As we look upon this peaceful scene and think of the one we have just left,
we think of the great difference between the quiet little school set back in the trees
and the large school on the crowded busy streets.

The School My Mother Attended
My mother attended Hall School. In those days school didn't commence be-
fore the Twenty-Third Psalm was read and a song was sung. They had one teacher
for all their studies except music and art. In room ten, the eighth grade room,
there was an organ. The Principal would occasionally play it for themg this was
a great treat.
There was no cafeteria in the school as we have in Lincoln. As many of the
pupils had a long way to come to school, they brought their lunch with them and
ate it in a room down in the basement. There wasn't a teacher to keep order there,
but the janitor did. Each room had two cloak rooms, one for the girls and the other
for the boys. To punish the boys, some of the teachers would send them into the
girls' cloak room. This was always hard on the girls because if it was a mischiev-
ious boy, the girls would have a hard time Finding their wraps when they were
ready to go home.
The fifth grade teacher rode a bicycle to school. Vtfhen she came in, she would
have to change her bicycle skirt to a longer skirt to be worn in the shool room.
The schools in those days were not so well equipped as they are today, but still
the pupils enjoyed what they had and proited by it.

. History. of the First Semester 9A Class '
The lirst semester 9A Class history was marked by several important events,
including the .llallowe'eni party.. the 9A class party, the class play, and the class
assembly, The ,l lallowe'en party was the First of its kind held in Lincoln, and it
was so successful that others will doubtless be given.
The class play, in which Kenneth Stenberg, blames Holmes, Clarence Lindsey,
Helen Peterson, Lorraine Erickson, jane Swenson, and Phyllis Reiuert partici-
pated, was very successful. It was Tlzr illazz from Bz'a1zd011'. Miss Cotta directed
it.
The QA class party this year was in the form of a carnival. or circus, with
booths and other attractions. The party proved very entertaining and was attended
by nearly everyone in the class.
hliss lllildred Sanders was the adviser of the 9.4 class. She was chosen at
a meeting held December l. The oliticers were elected at the following meeting and
were as follows: llenny Behr, Presidentg -lohn Olson, Vice-Presidentg Helen Peter-
son, Serretaryg and lfloward XVhite, Treasurer.
Members of the class have been very active in various activities of the school.
Lorraine lirickson was the editor of Tlzv LIillt'0IlI Log the First semester, while
Vera Cash, lfdwin Sandeen, and others were members of the stahi or of the club.
lidwin Sonnccken and Arthur tiumbrell were editors of the flmzzml during
the first semester, while many others of the class were on the staff. Phyllis Reinert
and .luanila l,indeman shared the duties ol Business Managers,and under their di-
rection an almost lO0fZJ subscription among the class members was obtained.
lileinbers of the class were in the band and orchestra. Mr. Haight made the
following statements about some of the leading members:
Fred lirilcson has nerve. He shows what work can do, and he is not afraid
to tryf,
Raymond lXlolander and Lloyd Peterson are always Tlzm'n.
VVe'll miss Raymond lflanstromg he always stayed until the finish?
Richard Sandstrom plays the drum as if he loved it.
ln the assembly, the last event of the semester, the will and prophecy were
given. The prophecy was given in a most modern fashion by being thrown on the
screen.
At the beginning of the second semester, the class migrated to senior high
school where they have become a very important part of that school.

Lincoln started out the V130 season with a nucleus for a great team with
Captain Htasica, llehr. lguatziluik, Armstrong. and Aronson ol' the N20 champion
team.
lizluipment was issued and practice started the first week of school. A squad
ol sixty-live reported, but dwindled to thirty-live at the close oi the season.
The lirst game of the series with Roosevelt, which was held on October fourth,
turned out to be a hard fought game, Lincoln winning seven to six. Other than
the sfore the game lacked anything spectacular except the usual brilliant playing
of Stasica.
ln the second game the Lincoln boys found themsleves battling to a twenty-to-
nothing victory. Little Mike 'l'augorra stored the third touchdown during the
game. Mike was substituting for lgnatchuk. lle played a nice game at blocking
half.
The third game was played on a raw cold day. neither team being able to do
much. Stacy of Roosevelt played a brilliant game and scored the only touchdown,
beating Lincoln seven to nothing.
The fourth game Lincoln won thirty-two to nothing, winning the champion-
ship. The team kicked beautifully that day. The line and backs functioned nearly
perfectly.
lilask's terrilic line plunging, llehr's generalship, lgnatchuk's and Stasica's
open field running, and Armstrong's great line playing were the outstanding points
of the season. A1-onson's playing was also very good, especially on the defense.
This year's team is undoubtedly the best team we have ever had.
During the entire season Lincoln made fifty-nine points, while Roosevelt
scored twelve.

The first game of the season was played with the faculty on December 17,
1930. The faculty won 21-15 in spite of lgnatchuk's score of nine points. ln the
second game. which was played with Seward, Lincoln trampled the opponents and
won 21-1-1. lgnatchuk again led with nine points, and Armstrong was second
with seven.
Lincoln won the lirst game with Roosevelt 20 to 16. Roosevelt was leading
ll to 9 at the half. but Lincoln rallied bravely, the inimitable lgnatchuk scoring
eleven points. ln the game of january 20. the alumni were surprised out of a
score of 20-16 in l,incoln's favor. The second game of the series with Roosevelt.
on January 22, was not so successful. Roosevelt won the game with a score ol
25-16. The next game of the series was also won by Roosevelt. This was the
First game after we had lost Behr and Armstrong, and because of the lack of
height and experience of our players Roosevelt won 29-13, Our team beat Roose-
velt 28-25 in the fourth game of the series. This was a great game for Emil
Stasica, who scored nine points and kept the ball from Roosevelt's basket by his
brilliant defense. The last game, the deciding game of the series, was won by
Roosevelt. Roosevelt was leading 1-1-7 at the hall. A rally by Lincoln in the last
half tied the game. Each team scored a basket, and then Roosevelt scored a bas-
ket, thus winning the game by two points.

Swimming
The Lincoln tankmen were the city junior champions this year. They won
the swimming meet with Roosevelt 24-22. The features of this meet were the
160 yard relay, the 40 yard free-style, the 40 yard hreast stroke, the 40 yard back
stroke, and the fancy diving. Roosevelt won the 160 yard relay, finishing in one
minute and thirty-six seconds. and carrying olic live points for their score. The
40 yard free-style was won by Carlgren of Lincoln who broke the 1930 record hy
two seconds. Second and third places were won hy Roosevelt, thus giving Lincoln
live points and .Roosevelt four. In the 40 yard breast stroke, Roosevelt won first
and second places, while Nivinski of Lincoln came in third, scoring one point.
Carlgren ol' Lincoln hroke the 40 yard hack stroke record hy two seconds and
won first place, while two Roosevelt swimmers won second and third respectively.
This was a hectic time for Lincoln, as the score stood 21-11 in favor of the visitors,
with only two events left. Then a few fancy dives by Hallden and Carlgren les-
sened lQoosevelt's lead to three points. lVith only one chance to win, the Lincoln
swimmers rallied and won the 120 yard medley, winning the meet by a score of
24-22.

Baseball
A large squad of about one hundred boys responded to the first call for prac-
tice. This was soon cnt down to a workable size squad, and the work of condi-
tioning and selecting prospects was begun.
All the games were played at lfairgronnds Park. ln the lirst on lllay 15.
Lincoln established an 'early lead in the game through the hitting of lgnatchuk
and E. Stasica, lint Roosevelt came from liehind and won ont in the closing mo-
ments. The second game was all lQoosevelt's. Bennett, the opposing pitcher, al-
lowed but tive hits and kept the Lincoln slnggers from doing much damage.
ln an attempt to stave ott defeat in the third game and stay in the running
for the championship, a left hander, Gene Lindell, was called upon to do the pitch-
ing. He held Roosevelt to fonr hits and, needless to say, Lincoln came through
with a victory. The fourth game was largely a repetition of the third and ended
in another Lincoln victory. This evened the series at two games for each school
and left the fifth game as the deciding one for the championship. Roosevelt piled
up an early lead and Lincoln was apparently heaten, as it was trailing by seven
runs with two innings to play. The east side lmoys staged a rally in the last two
innings, scoring eight runs and finally emerging with a victory of 12-ll and another
championship for Lincoln.

Girls' Athletics
'l'liere is a certain amount of required work in all grades. Health education is
a part of the general education which aims to provide for a normal development
of the body and to promote mind and character building through physical activities,
the practice of health laws, and the correction of growth handicaps.
'l'he activities for carrying out this prograln vary in the dil'ferent grades. The
7ll girls take part in formal gymnastics and games. among which the most popular
are ticrman bat ball and long ball. The 7A and SIS girls take a more advanced
type of formal exercise and team work as well as some folk dancing. These grades
have tournaments in kiclc ball and baseball.
Swimming is required in the SA grade. Practically every girl learns to do
two or more swimming strokes and to do simple diving. A Life Saving class is
organized for girls who can pass certain requirements. lt is possible to earn a
junior Life Saving ,Badge in this group.
ln the ninth grade classes posture and health habits continue to be stressed.
'l'eam games are popular with considerable emphasis placed upon volleyball in the
winter and hatball in the spring.
XVhen weather permits in the spring and fall, classes are held on the play
ground. The department aims to encourage the forming of habits which tend to
promote abundant interests, ideal for a healthful. useful, and happy adult life.

Organizations of Lincoln Junior High School
Wihen father went to school. he was most likelv a member of some ha 'loft
. 5
gang or the like. During the meetings of these gangs. its members thought up
ideas as to how to make llallowe'en more exciting' or April lfool, funnier. Their
leader was the boy who could think up the best tricks and have the best ideas.
Now-a-days, it is quite different. The purpose of the organizations of today
is to give knowledge to its members on subjects which they do not know or under-
stand rather than instruction in evil things.
In our school there are clubs that will appeal to almost every sort of interest.
Instrumental and vocal clubs are organized for those who are musically inclined.
For those who are interested in various phases of science are the clubs studying
those things. There are clubs for those who like to make things-art clubs, draft-
ing club, machine club. auto club, sewing clubs, basket-making clubs to name but
a few of them. For those who enjoy writing are the clubs devoted to the publica-
tion of the school paper, The f,l1Il'0f1l Log, and of the yllllllltll. Other clubs are
organized about the common hobbies of the pupilsg examples ot' these are the stamp
and magazine clubs. Une club calling itself Travel Club, studies traveling, and
its members exchange travel experiences with one another. tlpportunity tflubs are
organized in every department where pupils may receive assistance in dillicult work.
One group of organizations is devoted to service. The Student Council with
a representative from every home room functions in many capacities. The Ath-
letic Council plays a very important part in creating interest in the various sports
carried on by the school. The Girl Reserve, the Girl Scouts, and the lloy Scouts
all have their program of service. For example, three members of the lioy Scout
Club take charge of the raising and the lowering of the Afizlgf upfront of the school.
v4' . i' .
The clubs meet every Friday at two o'clock. The meetings are in charge of
the club ohicers with the members contributing to the program or the discussions.

- Banking
llanking in Lincoln junior High School. which is handled by the Peoples
llank and Trust Company and is sponsored by Thrift, lnc., of Oak Park, has
proved very successful during the past year in spite of the depression that has
fallen upon the city. lllany home rooms have learned and established the habit of
thrift, but special credit is due to the following groups, which have banked 10011
during all of the first semester: 7B-9, SB9-lO girls, SA-l, SA-8. The following
groups have banked IOOZQ so far this semester fhlay lj: 7A-l, 7A-3, 7A6-SA-3,
SA-9-l0 girls-9li-l, 9B-3, 9B-S, 9A--l. The highest percentage in school banking
during the hrst semester was 9-lin and during the second semester-so far-9271.
The average percent for the school during the first semester was S4W.
The largest amount banked during the first semester was on January 7, 1931,
with deposits of 339307. The following groups banked the largest amount during
the first semester: 9B-6, 3121.535 9A-1, 3106.465 and 9B-3, 39993. The 9A-3's
have the record for the largest amount banked this semester. They have banked
3398.76 The SA-6's have banked 559659. The 7A-5 rank third with deposits of
5586.88
The bank assistants for the first and second semesters are: Dorothy Larson,
Lillian Ahlquist, Ruth Allyn, Ruth Brodine, Roberta Swenson, Josephine Ething-
ton, Violet Eliason, and Vivian Wfehster.
The Thrift Thermometers used this year .inthe halls .are displayed to show
a comparison between individual rooms and the school as a whole and to show a
comparison between the same rooms and the per cent in Rockford schools.
On the Snap Shot page, Here, There, and Everywhere, on page 84 will
be found a picture of the bank with representatives of IOOZ rooms, and a picture
of the very efficient bank assistants.

Musical Organizations
The musical organizations, as the title suggests, work with music. The boys'
and girls' glee clubs and the operetta club are vocal clubs, while the band and or-
chestra are instrumental clubs.
The three vocal clubs present a candlelight service during the Christmas season
ancl an operetta in May, and also appear in various assemblies. This May, they
presented the beautiful oriental operetta, China Silk. During their club periods,
they rehearse numbers for different occasions.
The band and orchestra appear in various assemblies and programs. The or-
chestra entered the Northern lllinois Orchestra contest and received first place.
'l'he instrumental clubs are clivirlecl into two sections, the advanced section, niacle
up of the better players, and the beginners' section, made up of those who have
recently entered and clo not play very well. During the periods that they practice,
they receive instruction on how to play their instruments and also how to read notes
ancl to take care of their lll5t1'l1lTlC11tS.

Drarnatics Clubs
The dramatics clubs are organized to give their members instruction in how to
present and to write a play, to apply make-up, as well as instruction in important
factors concerning drama.
During this club period, the members of the dramatics clubs write clever four
line rhymes, read about the old theaters of Rockford, and various members present
programs, which sometimes include impersonations or pantomimes. Plays are also
given in the various assemblies by the clubs. In preparing a play, the members re-
ceive instructions on bow to apply make-up and to make costumes.

Science Clubs
Lincoln has two science clubs, one meeting on Friday at the regular club period,
and the other meeting Wednesdays after school. At the lirst club interesting dis-
cussions are held concerning matters pertaining to science. Pupils make reports on
their study and observation. and interesting experiments are performed, The Vtfed-
nesday club is the Lincoln Chemistry Club alililiated with the junior Academy of
Science. Six of the eighteen members of this club attended the twenty-fourth an-
nual convention of the junior Academy of Science in Peoria on lllay the eighth.
Attending the convention were: Frederick Saterbalc, President, lf red Olson, lid-
ward Anderson, Phil Kellner. Glenn Smith, and Everett Hammcrstrand, accom-
panied by Miss Mildred Sanders, the adviser. They entered their exhibits which
consisted of a rough stone collection, a smooth and polished stone collection, a col-
lection of arrow heads, a poster containing some of the rather uncommon chemical
compounds, and a poster showing the various colors and dyes which may be made
from coal. They were awarded second prize for their exhibits. The prize was
a valuable large chart which may be used in studying physiology, anatomy, and the
effects of alcohol and narcotics on the body.

Work Clubs
Machines hum, gears clash, pencils move, needles race, and brains grind when
the work clubs meet. These clubs are organized to develop interest in various types
of work, and to give practice in them.
During the club periods, the members are all engaged in their individual pro-
jects. Some sew, some make baskets, some work with machinery g but each is en-
gaged in something of particular interest to him, receiving help from the teacher
whenever necessary. At the end of the semester, almost everyone has the satis-
faction of having been able to complete something useful or beautiful during his
club periods. These clubs are. of course, among the most popular clubs.

Oh! That Homework
Between close of school and my bedtime,
NYhen my books in importance enlarge,
Comes a wish to my befuddled craninm
To transport every text on a barge.
l hear in the room just beyond me
A prograxu from Radiolaud:
Rudy Vallee and his Yankees:
Gee! Ilis voice is just grand.
From the window l see- on the sidewalk
The people all hurrying hy,
'I'he gang of the neighborhood playrugg
And then turn to my work with a sigh.
All my lessons are hnished in due tinieg
Yet I'm blue when prepared for next day,
For the neighborhood gang has retired
And the orchestra gone on its way.
And so, for the junior high students
The evenings drag by with slow pace.
Oh! Then can the faculty blame us
It' our homework we just dread to face?
-Vera Cash.

LOCAL CITIZEN FOUND
DEAD IN CARLSON HOTEL
Believed to Have Committed Suicide
tflifford Smith, well known local citizen
and criminal lawyer, was found dead this
morning at ten o'clock in his room in the
.Leonard Carlson hotel.
Ilis body was discovered by Eva Schlee,
hotel cliambermaid, when she entered his
room to clean this morning. He was lying
face downward on the floor, his hand shield-
ing his face. According to the Chief of
Police, Lloyd vlolnison, no clues to the mys-
tery have been found.
The coroner's autopsy, performed by Cor-
oner Lziwrence Van Bloom, found that death
was due to poison.
thief of Detectives, Mary Codus, stated
that suicide seems the most plausible answer
to the mystery. lt is thought that the break-
ing up of a love affair with Ruth Peacock,
the present Mrs. Ormond XVhipple, was the
motive for the act.
Another theory is that Mr. Smith, who
has defended many criminal cases, notably
the Xilfesley Sall ease, might have been mur-
dered by some enemy of his, though just
how this could be effected was not deter-
mined at a late hour today by Howard
tlberg, chief of the homicide squad.

FOR POLICE FORCE
Monorail Line to Be Extended
City council meeting last night was fea-
tured by the introduction of a resolution by
Alderman Howard Lindmark asking for six
additional autogiro- airplanes to supplement
the present equipment of the police force.
Alderman ,lack Shake contended that there
is already sufficient equipment for the force
lo cope with the lawless element. Several
times Mayor LaVerne Bookland was re-
quired to call the body to order because
of a spirited debate.
A petition from Virginia Linden, public

interesting changes in the interior of the build-
ing. The seats in the classrooms had cush-
ioned hacks, and the doors leading to the rooms
were revolving.

not in the form of pills.
