Many people have expressed a desire to more fully understand this program; accordingly it seems fitting to set aside one page of this book to explain the plan. This program provides for the spending of twelve thousand dollars this summer in remodelling three corners of the present high school building. The rooms in these corners will be enlarged not only to relieve the present Senior High congestion, but also in preparation for housing Central Junior High School some time in the future. Thirty thousand dollars, according to the plan, will be spent this summer in replacing our old heating plant with a new one farther north. The new plant will heat che present high school building, Central Junior High, and the new high school building when built. This is as far as we can go in concretely stating the plan. Sometime next fall or 1 spring, the board plans to submit a bond issue of about $125,000 for our dream—a | new school building. In imagining this building, you may use your own ideas; we can | only tell you that it will be across the street from this present building, and that it will ۱ face Clark Avenue. The details must be formulated, for the present, according to | your personal taste. j - ћ ; | 3 ELEVEN EDITOR = = - - ASSISTANT EDITOR- А 2 ASSISTANT EDITOR - : ; Business MANAGER ٤ - AssisTANT Business MANAGER AssIsTANT Business MANAGER ADVERTISING MANAGER - - ASSISTANT ADVERTISING MANAGER ASSISTANT ADVERTISING MANAGER Boys’ ATHLETIC EDITOR Å GIRLS ATHLETIC EDITOR Å Номов Ерітов - ; ORGANIZATION EDITOR SENIOR EDITOR JuNıoR EDITOR - SOPHOMORE EDITOR Р - ART EDITOR И ; - ART EDITOR ዐ : SNAPSHOT EDITOR - PROOF READER 2 : Proor Reaper - 2 : Е SECRETARY - , : 2 SECRETARY - 2 - ; SECRETARY - 5 2 FacuLtty ADVISER + 2 FACULTY ADVISER FacuLTY ÁpvisER - е : - = TWELVE REGINA KILDEF = - - - - KATHERINE GRIFFITH Å Å ) - - Vernon Loyp ۔‎ МУ АГТЕВ АРАМ5 З : - - Wooprow Bearp ; қ - Donarp Byers ፡ . й : - (CHARLES BROWN Raren BAKER Homer BATMAN - E - - CHARLES MURRAY 2 - - ANNA MaARIE CERNES Р - NADA GRAHAM 2 2 - Rura FEROE EVELYN СОУАПГТ Пештан ВАЕТОМ ROBERT Root FOREST |.

V v Class History 下 ጐ = ‘HE three-act comedy drama, The Career of the Class of Thirty, has just finished its run on Clark Avenue. It was a tremendous success, its theme being concerned chiefly with the building of character. Act I opened with the Class, a timid, retiring group called Sophomores, be- ginning their parts hesitatingly, but plodding on, gaining in courage and poise and wisdom, until, as the curtain fell on that scene, they were ready to push forward with heads high. іп Act Il the shy Sophomores had given place to confident and active Juniors, and, under the able direction of Mrs. Beanblossom, they were united into a working body with Robert Hawley, aided by Mary Scott, to lead them, Evelyn Covault to record | their achievements, and Walter Adams to keep in trust their worldly goods. En- | larging their field of activities, they presented a play, Come Out of the Kitchen, the å proceeds of which went to entertain the actors from another comedy-drama, The Doings of the Class of Twenty-Nine. | The climax was reached in Act III]. Other advisers came to direct, Miss Wilcox | and Mr. Donels, while Nada Graham, with Mac Woods as assistant, wielded the gavel. Ruth Hawley, as scribe, and Daniel Hughes, as guardian of the money box, were also principals. Two state wrestling champions, Kenneth Ruggles, whose role was assumed in Act I, and James McCurdy, who achieved a like distinction in Act II, successfully continued in their respective parts. Another dramatic interlude was presented after which the Class with real responsibilities beneath which its members could not flinch, continued its triumphal progress until at last the curtain went down on the whole splendid and glittering ensemble in a final blaze of glory.

Her secretary, Mary Baldwin, declares it is bravery which made her do it, and not a wish to commit suicide.

Carmen Rushia, a satirical columnist on the New York World, of which Walter Adams is now editor, has jeeringly pointed out that there are no lions in South America. One of the prominent feature writers of the day, Maxine Allan, has given her opinion that an interesting combat will take place between Corporal McCurdy and Miss Rushia upon his return to this country with Tom Tarman, our Minister to Venezuela. We are all familiar with the name of Barrdy McMillin, absolute dictator of Argentina. She is known for her solemnity and laconic speech. Tom McDonald is military leader under her Bazoosti regime. Across the ocean we hear that Preston Reed is an Alpine guide. His yodeling is very remarkable. He saved the life of Neta Berry when she was travelling abroad with her husband, a Canadian land owner.

FIFTY-THREE | ሙን GT АДЕ " . ae UR — HE PHT que Sophomore Class History ኙ 下 ኙ A ESSI DS, to an old custom which seems to prevail around che High School, another group of Sophomores entered the sanctity of Ames High this fall, a bunch as “green” as usual in the minds of the superior Seniors. Nevertheless they soon became accustomed to the things that were different from the school that had sent them forth and settled down into the one thing with which they were familiar-study. But study did not, of course, occupy the full time of these busy Sophomeores, for there were the activities, many of which were entirely new and unknown to them. There was the Web, service on the staff of which some received. Other repre- sentatives of the class found their way into other journalistic lines, gaining the privilege to write for this Spirit. The first sport that came in the school year, of course, was football. Among the Sophomores, who went out, Orville Madsen gained a berth on the team and won a major letter. The same Orville " showed his stuff” on the basketball floor. Other Sophomores became members of the Dramatic Club by reciting that well- known verse from Shakespeare, the " Mercy Speech.” Three Sophomores were cast in the Dramatic Club Play Adam and Eva of November fifteenth—Paulinel ler, | John Mac Rae, and Robert Root. John MacRae, Donald McCall, Zella Ghrist, Bruce Armstrong, Clarice Fowler, Willa Sanger, Audrey Woodruff, Pauline ller, and Manzella Groth were in the cast of the club’s play of April Eleventh, The Whole Town's Talking. Declamatory and debate took their members of the class also. And last but not least, there were the music organizations. Band and Orchestra claimed their share. Some joined the Mixed Chorus and Glee Clubs. Robert Dodds was the only Sophomore who was a member of the cast of the operetta, The Belle of Barcelona, but many sang in the choruses. And so you see, friends, that between study and activities the tenth year students were a busy group. The activities, of course, were taken for the " fun, but the study- well, as Mr. Barker said, you study to " get your education.” Rosert Root, 32. FIFTY-FOUR Г» Top row: Donels, T. Woodruff, M.

Debate ‘HIS year’s debate season was characterized by an almost absolute lack of ex- perienced material. Delilah Bartow returned after a successful season last year and earned her degree of Distinction in the Forensic League. Others who debated the proposition: “Resolved, that in all trials throughout the United States the petit jury system should be ab: olished. Constitutionality waived” chis year were Betty Coykendall, Regina Kildee, Robert Root, Bruce Armstrong, Donald McCall, Luther Siemers, and Gladys Redlinger. Because of a financial retrenchment program which several schools used this vear, many of our debates were non-decision, but of the decision debates, Ames was victorious in the majority. Again, this year Ames entered the Drake Debate Tournament, represented by Betty Coykendall, Regina Kildee, Robert Root, and Delilah Bartow. In the first round the Ames negative team defeated the affirmative team of Mason City. Ames was in turn eliminated by the Newton team which was defeated by Thomas Jefferson of Council Bluffs, the winner of the Tournament. During this season seven debaters earned their membership in the National Forensic League. Betty Coykendall, without previous experience, earned the degree of excellency in the N. F. L. this year. The majority of the debaters will return to Ames High next year, and the prospects for a most successful year are assuredly bright. Ковект Root, 32.

Declamatory ANY more contestants were out for declamatory this year than in any preceding 2 year. On account of the large number of contestants it was necessary to hold three preliminary contests. The four contestants who placed highest in each class met again in the local contest of which the winners were as follows: Oratorical—Sam Risk (1st); Mildred Bennett (2nd): Dramatic—Phyllis Snyder (1st); Neva Carey (2nd): Humorous—Mary Burton (1st); Mae Fisher (2nd). As plans for several dual meets were being made, in addition to the above named, four contestants were retained in each class for future competition.

Vocational Typewriting ы ы HE vocational typewriting course 15 one of the most interesting courses in high school. Its membership is made up of students who do not take shorthand but want a second year of training in typewriting and office practice. The first semester is spent in developing accuracy and speed, writing mailable letters, and doing copv work. [n the second semester the new Gregg edition of a secretarial book forms the foundational work of the course. This book gives a broad and thorough view of the different types of work which a secretary may have to do in an office. This work in- cludes the simple study of receiving telephone messages, to banking procedure, filing, business organization of manufacturing industries and commercial enterprises, and the study of investments and credits, with laboratory projects to test the students’ grasp of the skill and knowledge required. Although this course does not include shorthand, the students will be equipped with foundational skill for certain types of office positions. The general business science learned is very beneficial, whether the students will eventually be home makers, office workers, or candidates for college degrees. Mary BALDWIN, 30.

Although Ames put up a good fight, “Osky” pushed over one touchdown to win the game. In the second quarter, Ames fell short of a touchdown by a very few inches. After that che game was fairly even, neither team gaining the advantage. Ruggles was the main cog in our defensive play. He stopped many of the “Osky” players in their tracks, when otherwise they would have made long gains. Oskaloosa was ranked as one of the best teams in the state, losing only one game- to the strong Marshalltown team. АМЕ5 19 Coro o Colo possessed one of the strongest teams they have had in years. Their team outplayed Ames the first half, but was unable to reach the scoring territory. Ames came back in the second half, and secured a counter as a result of a 55 yard pass and run from Anderson to Stahlman. Nelson picked up a fumble behind Calo’ s goal line for the second counter. The third touchdown was made by a 55 yard drive down the field by Ruggles, Batman, and Mullica. UNI Åmes 2 NEWTON O Ames played a very conservative game the first half. They gradually wore down the strong Newton team, routing its highly prized passing attack. Ames came back the second halt and played Newton off their feet, carrying the ball four times deep into the opponents’ territory. They were finally rewarded when Newton fumbled behind their own goal line and were caught for a safety. The whole team was keyed up to a high pitch, and all played an exceptionally good game. EIGHTY-TWO መ TOS 07.57 v ov AMES 19 GRINNELL O Our homecoming game with Grinnell was played upon a very muddy field. Ames outplayed Grinnell in all departments of the game, gaining twelve first downs to their one. We were held scoreless for the first three quarters. A 45 yard pass and run, Anderson to Ash, resulted in the first score. A few minutes later Jones, the fleet- footed Ames guard, intercepted a forward pass and raced 40 yards for another touch- down. In the last minutes of play, a pass, Batman to Engeldinger, gave us another counter. A surprising feature of the game was that Ames completed the three passes attempted and two of them were good for touchdowns. ке AMES 0 MARSHALLTOWN 25 After carrying on a punting duel for the first two quarters, Marshalltown took advantage of four breaks and turned them all into touchdowns. [n the early part of the second half, Anderson, in attempting a pass, was tackled and his throw went wild. A Marshalltown man intercepted and ran 42 yards for a touchdown. They next intercepted a lateral pass and marched down the field for another counter. Marshall- town then blocked a kick and recovered the ball. A pass was then completed for the third touchdown. The fourth counter was secured by intercepting a pass upon the 35 yard lire. Åmes 12 STORY Cirv 6 Coach Roberts started an entire reserve team that was able to push over a touch- down іп the first few minutes of the play. In the second quarter, Story tied the score by a sixty yard march down the field. Then the first string was putin. After showing a powerful attack for the first few minutes, the squad slowed down. Finally at the end of the third quarter, as the result of a poor kick which Ames recovered on Story’s 23 yard line, Batman carried the ball over. Near the end of the game a pass from Batman to Madsen almost resulted in a touchdown, but the referee ruled that Madsen stepped out of bounds just before he crossed the goal. КСФ Уу Åmes 6 Boone o The two teams were well matched and played on even terms for two quarters. Then Ash in two line plays carried the ball across from the 19 yard line. There were no outstanding plays, as it was all just good hard football.

Valley chen pushed over a touchdown and also kicked the goal, making the score 7 to 6 in their favor. Another pass, Batman to Madsen, resulted in our second score. We also kicked the goal. Then, in the last quarter, Valley again went over but failed to kick the goal, the game ending in a tie. " kb GA. ` = — AMES O PERRY 6 We met Perry for the first time this year. Although it was a cold and snowy 9 day, it was a very lively game. Ames held Perry for two quarters, and then Perry finally scored but failed to make the goal. After that they played on almost even terms. Several times Ames was almost within scoring distance. With this game the season ended. Although several good men will be lost to the squad, there will be several left. Consequently, we are hoping for a good team next year.

However, he found enough good material to make any coach feel pretty happy over the approaching season. His only difficulty was find- ing a combination that would work together the best. All were individually good but were a little ragged when playing together. The opening game was with Grinnell. As this date approached, Hawley, Jones, Trow, Batman, and Anderson seemed to be the smoothest and most aggressive com- bination in the aggregation. But Fate seemed to have made a misdeal as Ames lost by one point. The next week Ames met the always powerful Oskaloosa team. Our coach | tried a new combination using Jones, Dickerson, Trow, Anderson, and Reed. But our boys were unable to stand up under the onslaught, and we lost by quite a sizeable score. They played hard and fast but were unable co find the basket. Then Gray, a Junior, proved to have quite a basket eye, and with him and Dickerson in the same team things began to look much better. We administered a drubbing to our long time athletic enemy, Boone, but went down under the power- ful Marshalltown machine. Through the rest of the season, we experienced different kinds of luck. We wound up the regular season by defeating the city champions of Des Moines, Roose- velt, by che impressive score of 27 to 19. Our records, at this point, showed 7 wins to 8 defeats. The teanr next went through the County Tournament with a bang. First drawing a bye, they defeated Huxley, Zearing, and Gilbert in rapid succession. Then the team again journeyed over to Boone for the Sectional Tournament. The boys seemed to be the least bit over-confident, and they suffered their final defeat of the season at the hands of Boone. It was a fast game and went to two overtime periods, but Boone was able to account for one more point than Ames. These players will be lost by graduation: Anderson, Cameron, Jones, Trow, Hawley, and Reed. Preston Reed, a fast and aggressive guard, was chosen as Captain at the end of the season. The following men were high scorers on the Ames High first team: Gray—72 points, Cameron and Jones—48 each, Batman—4o, Anderson—29, Dickerson—28. ጐ ” STATEMENT BY BASKETBALL CAPTAIN " The team this year was quite successful.

Each class was represented by twenty- four girls, who were divided by lot into two teams. All put up a good fight, but the battle really was fought between the more experienced Juniors and Sen. 1015. In the first games the fast Juniors easily won over the peppy Sophomores by large margins. The next evening two exciting games were played be- tween the Juniors and Seniors. VOLLEYBALL CHAMPS In the first game Squad Number One of the Seniors and Squad Number One ot the Juniors fought a stiff battle, ending in a victory for the Senior Squad. The other two teams also played a good game, ending in favor of the Juniors. In the game between the Seniors and the Sophomores, the latter put up a game fight, but couldn’t quite make the grade. The Seniors won both of these games. Now the championship stood between Squad Number One aE the Seniors and Squad Number One of the Juniors. Both teams played well, Бис sadly а تو رھد 7 K enough for the Seniors, the Class of 1931 was just a little bit che better.

This year the council determined that certain girls were deserving of some additional award. To be eligible for this honor a girl must have earned her major A in her Junior year, and have actively par- ticipated in athletics during all thr ee years in high school. Besides these two fundamentals she must have those high standards which show a strong char- acter. Black felt pillow tops decorated with A’s were given for this Honorary G. A. A. Award.

Never betore has there been a tournament played in this school that could compare with this one in speed. SENIORS On March 10, the Seniors and Soph- omores played the first game of the series. During the first half che Seniors played the more consistant game, but the Sophomores plugging along persistantly prevented the older girls from running up a big lead. The half ended 17 to 23 in favor of the Seniors. Many people expected the Sophs to break during the last half, but contrary to general opin- ion, they came back stronger than ever. They played better and better as the game proceeded; their forwards were shooting baskets from all angles, and their guards clung co the Senior for- wards like leeches. The final score showed that time alone had probably saved the Seniors from defeat, for, with the Sophs’ score steadily grow- ing larger, the game ended 25 to 23 in favor of the Senior Team. ١ 1۱١: a‏ پا The second game of the tournament, on March 11, was played between the Sophomores and Juniors. It was a terribly one sided afair from end to end. The Sophomores seemed to be struck with some sort of stage fright. In the first quarter they undoubtedly did their best playing, holding the Juniors down toa 10 to 5 lead. In the second quarter they seemed dead on their feet, while che Junior team was functioning beauti- fully. The half ended 18 to 5. During the first few minutes of the third quarter the Sophs pepped up considerably. They broke up many of the Junior's plays, and even managed to work the ball down to their end of the court to throw a neat basket. This quarter, end- ing 23 to 7, showed the fastest playing in the game. In the last quarter the Sophomores rarely had the ball. The SOPHOMORES Juniors used the same play over and over again, but the younger girls were com- pletely worn out and could do nothing to stop them. The final score was 11 to 27 in favor of the Juniors. On March 13, the fastest game ever played by girls on the high school court was fought by the Juniors and Seniors. Although the Seniors had the ball most NINETY-THREE አሪ 2: of the time during the first quarter, they couldn't seem to hit the loop. The ball was tossed back and forth from one end of the court to the other, while in be- tween times the forwards tried desper- JUNIORS ately to hit the basket. During the first quarter, ending, for the Juniors, 4 to 2, the score was tied once. During the second quarter both teams made sub- stitutions. The Juniors were the first to score, but the Seniors tied with two free throws and a field goal. Near the end of the half, the Juniors got a two-point lead, when a forward, scooping up the ball under her own basket, tossed it in just as the whistle blew for the half. In the third quarter, the Seniors missed several good set ups, but Genevieve Lathrop tossed two beautiful baskets. The people on the side lines went mad, as the forwards on both teams made futile shots at the basket. The quarter ended with the Seniors leading 16 to 12. In the fourth quarter both teams were pretty well fagged our, but, nevertheless, kept going at a tre- mendous pace. Even the boys showed that they were excited, as they jumped around screaming all sorts of unintelli- gible things. Ar last the Juniors manag- ed to score, but the final markings gave the tournament championship to the Seniors 16 to 14. Huge P. E. Demonstration Given To defray the cost of the free towel service started this year, the Physical Education Department gave a Dem- onstration at the Field House on March 28. The boys gave several gymnastic stunts and samples of their class work, while the girls gave a very complete summary of their year’s accomplish- ments. The program began with a grand march, which included all the girls in Central Junior High, as well as the Senior High School girls. There were over four hundred in the group as they NINETY-FOUR Rk A е AT BATER — — c. 100 Afer ጠበ — АНЕ‏ مر رح رٹ marched in perfect drill around the floor. Each class then added its bit to the day's program. the First, Second, and Third Period Classes, wearing costumes ap- propriate for the period presented a very quaint American Country Dance. Å very compli- cated Swedish Dance was given by the peppy Fourth Period Class. All the girls had been working for some weeks on Danish Gym- nastics. Å set of these was worked up and given very nicelv by the Fifth Period Class. The teaching of Clog Dancing is as yet rather new in high schools, and so the audience was greatly surprised to have the girls of the Sixth Period Class give two of them. The first, The Captain Kidd Dance, was given in costume; the other showed many of the varied clog dance steps. The girls showed plenty of pep in both, and their almost perfect style showed the result of much hard work. Two picked teams played a fast game The girls of of Volleyball, while two basketball teams demonstrated the speedy, new, two-division game, which the girls used in their tournament this winter. Perhaps the outstanding feature of the girl’s share of the demonstration, was the pyramid building group, made up of approximately twenty-five firls. This group worked morning and night for many weeks to perfect the many difficult pyramids which they seemed to make with astounding ease. СА А The Girls' Athletic Association was organized in this High School three years ago this spring. It is astounding to note the growth it has made in that time. At the end of the first year there were sixty active members; now there are 125. År that time there were ap- proximately 25 Å's awarded, and in two years this number has nearly tripled it- self. Each year this organization be- comes more and more popular, and as it grows, the pep and excitment concern- ing the girls’ many tournaments grows. It is now one of the largest and best or- ganized groups in the school; and we are sure that as time goes on it will grow more and more worth while.

ONE HUNDRED Et GE NUMRE О а v Junior-Sentor Banquet, 1929 ጐ ጐ ጐ 1 last the long-looked forward to evening had come, when the Juniors might see the results of their long labors. As we entered the beautiful Great Hall, Memorial Union, even the sophisticated Seniors were forced to let fall appreciative exclamations. In honor of our guests, the Seniors, we had used their class colors, violet and silver, throughout our decorations; flowers, nutcups, programs, even the ice cream carried out this idea. Not only were the tables fair to look upon, but the good things with which they were loaded were duly appreciated by the hungry crowd. During the meal at intervals we were entertained by music of various kinds. When dinner was finished, the program of toasts, following the theme “Highways, began. Unlike most after dinner talks, these were actually ‘‘short and snappy,” and almost too soon it was time to join in the chorus of the song written by a member o the class of 29, Le Roy Daubert, and leave the scene of festivity, all agreeing that the banquet had been an unqualified success. DE Homecoming ጐ = T the very height of the recent " yo-yo " craze came our 1929-30 school year home- coming. It was on a drizzly, soggy afternoon that the Grinnell football team met ours here. We came out on the top end of the score in a good game—19-0. Perhaps the pep the school had shown the preceeding evening helped the team. Everyone had met at the auditorium and following several big yells and stunts there the whole school, it seemed, made its way to the fieldhouse, stopping occasionally to give a big yell and incidentally causing a few traffic jams. The crowd was greeted by a huge bonfire and cat-tail torches were passed around. After speeches there by the alumni, the exhausted crew proceeded to Main Street in a long snake dance. Following the big game, a snappy banquet was held at the Sheldon Munn Hotel. Various interesting entertainments were given in connection with the program, which, even to a yell by Mike Stuhlsatz, Beulah Iler, and Bob Dawson, followed the circus idea. One of the Grinnell team, regardless of the fact that he alibied a sore ankle, favored us with a dance. Ropert Root, 31. ONE HUNDRED ONE ГЕИ] EET ? г ИЕ ИРАНА. 27-27-2772 Girl Reserve Social Functions 下 Y Y S one of the first things on the Girl Reserve program this year everyone had “oodles” of fun at a Hard-Time party. Each old girl had a “date” with a new girl, in order to — better acquainted; After playing several games the crowd ing instructions to prepare a stunt. The resulting stunts were quite varied 5 ከ Many heretofore undiscovered talents, or perhaps, characteristics, appeared in our usually grave, dignified classmates. At least, everyone laughed till it was a physical impossibility to do so longer. U nique prizes were awarded for some of the many original costumes—Mary Burton meriting first. Later, the Girl Reserve and Hi-Y organizations joined forces in giving a Christ- mas Party for the unfortunate children of Ames. It was an inspiration and joy forever to see those little kiddies singing songs, playing games, and dancing eagerly around Santa Claus—(Alvin Countryman in disguise.) The big event of the year was the annual Girl Reserve Friendship Conference. All Senior girls and many Juniors had helpful talks with a counselor, and the Mother- Daughter Banquet, which was held in the Lutheran Church and which carried out our theme, the G. R. Zeppelin—was a fitting climax. KATHERINE GRIFFITH, 31. Hi-Y Vocational Conference Y Y Y HE annual Hi-Y Vocational Conference was held this year during the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth days of March. This year, the personal interviews were all held before the banquet. Гһе Messieurs Shaw, Hardwick, Murphy, and Johndrew devoted much of their time dur- ing the conference to interviewing the fifty-four boys of the high school who had signified their desire for these conferences, upon the subject of choosing a vocation. Undoubtedly many of the boys received benefit from their interview, and gained a clearer conception of their problems. The climax of the conference is always the banquet. This year about sixty men and boys met in the basement of the Christian Church Wednesday evening, March nineteenth, for the affair. Robert Hawley was chairman again this year. Between courses, various musical numbers were provided by different members of the high school. The banquet and conference were concluded by an address by the Rev. W. Barlow of the Collegiate Presbyterian Church. JoHN CoYKENDALL, 30. ONE HUNDRED TWO " ІСЕЕСКЕ?ТЕІ) SL A — == . — ው å к e. x የውብ E npe LA Drake Debating Tournament Y Y 下 О most of the student body, debate seems just like an extra subject which re- ? quires a great deal of extra time. But those debaters who were fortunate enough го P taken to the Drake Tournament, Elizabeth Coy kendall, Delilah Bartow, Robert Root, and Regina Kildee, contend that debate is " fun. " The Ames group left for Des Moines by bus one Wednesday afternoon in March, and, upon arriving at Drake, were assigned to their rooms in fraternity and sorority houses there. Immediately the drawing for opponents took place, and Ames found that she was to uphold the negative against Mason City, reputedly the strongest team in the state. To take the edge off their nervousness, our debaters enjoyed the Drake Band Box Revue. On Thursday, Ames defeated Mason City, and by the next drawing, had New- ton's strong negative team for opponents. These seasoned debaters proved a bit too much for our affirmative, and so Ames was placed in class “E,” the debaters’ term for eliminated. Nevertheless, Ames stayed on со hear the final debates, and to attend a few shows, and went home feeling not a whit daunted. “Che Whole Gown's 'Са та Зесопа Dramatic Club Play Henry SIMMONS, A MANUFACTURER - - - DoNwarp McCarr Harriet SIMMONS, HIS WIFE - = - - MaARGuERITE ERICKSON ETHEL SIMMONS, THEIR DAUGHTER - - - EvELYN COVAULT (CHESTER BINNEY, SIMMONS PARTNER - - - LuTHER SIEMERS AUDREY WOODRUFF - MIKE STUHLSATZ [етту [ УТНЕ, A MOTION PICTURE STAR - [DONALD SWIFT, A MOTION PICTURE DIRECTOR Косев SHIELDS, A YOUNG CHICAGO BLOOD - - - Joun MacRae Lua WILSON | ( PAULINE [LER سر وہ ہہ‎ т ፡ å WILLA SANGER ÅNNIE, A MAID - : 2 Е - - ZELLA GuHrRIST SADIE BLOOM - 2 - - 2 5 - HELEN WILKINSON TAxI-DRIVER - 2 А А : Е - Bruce ARMSTRONG Mrs. JACKSON - = - 2 a a e e SARAH MELHUS MANZELLA GROTH } Crarice Fow er THE GIRLS - - - 2 = 2 2 2 | Neva Carey BEULAH ILER “ГЕ SIMMONS has set his heart on a marriage between his daughter, Ethel, and his Junior partner, Mr. Binney.

ONE HUNDRED THREE RTS EEE 07 77 00 LX Grinnell Press Convention Y Y Y N November 15, eight merry delegates set out for the annual Press Convention at Grinnell in a little five-passenger rented car. Miss Fulton served simultaneously as chauffeur, chaperone, ВО and sponsor. Upon their arrival, the representatives of the Web and Spirit were registered and assigned to their rooms in the Quadrangle. After luncheon in the women's dining- hall, the delegates scattered to the various lectures and classes held. Ar four o'clock, everyone attended а tea dance held by Theta Sigma Phu. After dinner everyone heard an excellent address by Harvey Ingham, editor of the Des Moines Register. The next morning was taken up by various open forums, and the convention was | concluded with the awarding of cups to the winners. | Although Ames won no trophies, our representatives gleaned a great deal of valuable information, and everyone felt that the time was well spent. ELIZABETH COYKENDALL, 32 WA Social Standards Convention Y N Friday, March 21, about seventy-five representatives from fourteen of the state's largest high schools met in Ames for a Social Standards Convention. Our Student Council had charge of the reception and registration of the guests that after- noon, and Ames High sent four representatives to the meetings—Ruth Feroe, Regina Kildee, Donald Byers, and Robert Hawley. At dinner in the Memorial Union Friday evening, the Rev. Stoddard Lane of Des Moines gave a splendid inspirational address which put everyone in the proper frame of mind for the discussions to follow. After dinner, Mr. Norris Wentworth of Ames had charge of a mixer, in the course of which everyone lost his dignity and laughed and talked with his neighbors. Saturday morning, the group learned from Mr. Steeper, principal of North High, Des Moines, about 'our part in government; Saturday afternoon, they held a spirited discussion on pacifism, the R. О. Т. С. and kindred subjects, under Rev. Lane. After the meeting closed Saturday afternoon at 3:30, the group was free until 7:30 that evening, when it discussed " Leadership " with Mr. Weeks, of Lincoln High, Des Moines. Everyone was up bright and early Sunday morning for the final conference, which was on the socíal relationships of boys and girls. This over, the delegates departed for their various cities, each feeling that the conferences had been very much worth while, not only in inspiration and new ideas, but also in happy friendships formed with these leaders from other high schools.

H. S. corridor strollers have been caught in his snare. Alas! what can we poor struggling classmates do to aid our brechern and sistern (nort cistern) in distress? I'll answer it—there is nothing we can do at present (thank | goodness) except to publish che list of unfortunates so that we can watch future : developments. Now there is a certain young man (quarter please) within our midst who main- tains a great dislike for anything ‘Student Councilly,’’ but oddity of odds. we find him daily strolling the corridors with none other than that organization's president. Now, we ask you—is that nice? | In abouethe middle of the third floor each morning, noon, and night we find a | group of heroes and sheroes swinging on locker doors and telling about their keen | times. Among this group are none other than Sir Casey Jones, that great song inspir- і ator, and a certain Velma Newell; Paul Cameron and Eva; Wallace Piper and Alice Carey; Charles Murray and Alice Cupps. Within hailing distance there’s another group that does so much changing around that we have begun to think that old Dan himself can't keep matters straight. By the time this is printed, the facts will probably be ‘old stuff,’ but this is the line-up as is—MacNeil, our opera songster, who seems to be greatly attracted by a cerrain rosy Apple; Mike (who would have made an excellent loud speaker) and Sarah; and then our smiling serious wrestler, Mr. Ruggles, and the athletic Margaret Ev vard. But wait—here’s another Charles in our midst who is among Dan’s victims. This time [[ 5 a Brown one and he takes as his datee none other than Marnie Woods. It’s getting to be a terrible affliction though when two from one family step into this limelight. There are those tw o Hawleys; of course they're twins, and are apt to act much alike, but just the same, it's going a little too far this time. Poor Daniel and Anna Louise! How could they help it when two such go-getters start after them? Another family in like stress is the Bakers’. George and Neva and Ralph and Audrey may be seen at most any hour, any day, strolling slowly through the halls. Occasion- ally when not watching where they are going, they bump into Evelyn and Don, Phyllis and Francis, Allen and Anna Marie, or even Nada and Jim. | Another favorite rendezvous of these dreamy-eyed, listless creatures is the study | hall, especially at the noon hour. For in the back we find Keith Cooper and June | Remington talking about—well, I really never have listened, but I suppose it is about this or that or something else. | Things are coming со å pretty pass though when our little, innocent Sophies begin to fall. How tragic it is for us to walk down the hall on second floor and find such dear little souls as Billy Sanger, Kenneth Koonce, Marguerite Gamrath, Lloyd Younie, Mildred Miller, Ronald Carey, Ila Parsons, Kenneth Kelley, Pearl Kinderman, Dale Pierce, Pauline Ilerand Robert Dodds or Gerald Vance and Mary Lorton chasing each other up one side of the hall and down the other or swinging on locker doors like the dignified Seniors on the third floor.

Although apparently ra- tional and harmless most of the time, on one occasion she begged members of the school to search for а book Wandering in China, and also one Seven Leagues Beneath the Sea. lt is thought that she will recover as soon as relieved of her sixth period study hall. While we are on this subject, we might mention that at one time it was seriously doubted whether Mr. Harms was entirely in his right mind. On the occasion in question, he told one of the pupils in his fifth period Physics class to entirely dry che inside of a beaker, and then told George Baker to fill che beaker with water without getting it wet. This matter was settled shortly after, however, when Mr. Harms informed us that he meant to say the outside of the beaker.

OPTIMISTIC OPAL SAYS WHY WORRY ABOUT EXAMS? You have several chances: Your teacher is either easy or hard. If she is easy, you do not need to worry. If she is hard, you still have two chances: either you study hard or you bluff. If you study hard, you have nothing to worry about. If you bluff, two chances re- main: either your bluff works, or it doesn't. If it works, you need not worry. If it shouldn’t work, you still have two chances: you may pass the six weeks test, or you may flunk. If you pass, you have nothing to worry about; if you flunk the test you still have two chances: you may pass the exam or you may flunk. If you pass, уои don't need to worry. If you flunk, you won't have to worry any longer. Therefore —why worry? FOR LATIN STUDENTS ONLY On your way home you meet a mem- ber of feminine gender. Being mascu- line and proper you ask to carry her books and accompany her home. If she is not objective, you become plural. Since only her mother is at home to wel- come you, you become dative. After much duration of time, you return home full of thoughts of the future,inasmuch as it involves the present. After a few days you again call at her home where you meet her accusative father, who, in a tense moment, convinces you that your purposes can never bring results, and you must forever consider your- self singular as far as his possessions are concerned. Thereupon you character- istically become independent and re- trace your route. FRANK METTLER, a Latin Student. SAFE Bill Ash: " Who invented work? " Delilah Bartow: “Don't worry: you ll never infringe his patent.” ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-ONE L I Electricity | Y ኙ It seems that one Physics Class has been putting its study of electricity to practical usage, and has drawn up the following table of directions which it hereby passes on How to Handle Your Girl Electrically When a woman is bored Exciter If she gets too excited Controller [f she won't come when you want her to Coaxer [f she is willing to come halfway Meter [f she is willing to come all the way Receiver If she is too fast to stop Dispatcher I [f she tries to two-time you Detecter 1 [f she proves your fears are wrong Compensater [f she goes up in the air Condenser [f she is hungry Feeder ЈЕ she sings poorly Tuner If she gets cold Heater If she gets too hot Cooler If she is too calm Shocker [f you have one just like her Alternater And when you get tired of her Electrocuter EG VHP ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-TWO Advertis ጐ ጐ CTS E wish to extend co the following merchants and firms of Ames, who have cooperated with the staff in making possible this 1930 Spirit, our most sincere appreciation : Ames Bootery Ames Grain Coat Co.

How we do hope that you have enjoyed this book on which we of the staff have spent so many happy hours! How we hope that on its pages you have seen a bit of ነ that enthusiasm with which we have attacked our work! Now that this haste has passed, now that we have settled down once more to the routíne of school life, we realize that, without the willing cooperation which we have received on every hand, the publication of this book would have been impossible. We wish to thank the entire student body for the splendid backing and encouragement it gave us throughout the year. Then we wish to thank particularly: The Students and Faculty, aside from the staff, who have supplied information concerning activities. The Griffith Studio, which has united with us so helpfully, and which has been so patient in the difficult task of taking these scores of pictures. The Tribune Publishing Company, which has enabled us to give you such an attractive book. The Waterloo Engraving Company, which has been so prompt and painstaking in making our engravings. Last, but far from least, those Business Men listed on another page who have made possible this Spirit free from advertisements.
