News: Spotlight Amundsen High has been fortu- nate to obtain a new spotlight, of the latest theatrical type! The spot- light, which is 1500 candlepower. was secured by the school early last spring ami was used in the last Senior Play. Due to the fact that the old one was quite hard to ma- nipulate, the following features prove to be just what Amundsen needs: colors change' automatically with the flick of a switch, sharp t'ocusing can be obtained tthe range being from a small head circle to a. full stagej, horizontal shutoffs enable it to throw a rectangular- shaped beam of light, and, there is an automatic fade out! This new addition will be a great aid to the variety shows, plays, and various other school programs. by Sue Kott Five hundred students have en- rolled in the Junior College Branch at Amumisen High during registra- tion week. September 5-11. Amundscn is able to accommodate about seven humlred ami fifty col- lege stmlents. The college day be- gins at 2:30 in the afternoon ami continues until 10 in the evening. lt is hoped that by next semester there will be a full time schedule with the day beginning at 8:00 ami ending at 10. At present there aren't any Friday night classes, so the Amundsen Social Center will be continued. The drama room 306 has now been converted into a library and lounge, ami 201 is being used as the main office. For day classes the college uses: 314, 307, 216, 215, 214, and 212. Evening classes are held in rooms: 329, 323, 322, 313, 223, 213, 207, and 103. The various courses offered are: biology, Eng- lish, mathematics, American his- tory, social science, speech, physics, physical science, accounting, short- hand, typing, French, blueprint reading, business law, music, ele- mentary electronics, Spanish, sales- rnanship, and economics. The college is under the direction of Dean Turner H. Trimble, a col- lege instructor ami administrator for twenty-three years. Dean Trim- Dean Turner H. Trimble ble entered the Navy in 1942 ami later earned his bachelor's and master's degree at the University of Illinois. Being a very active man in civic aml professional organiza- tions, he was the president of the North l,awndale Citizens' Coun'cil from 1950 to 1953. At, present, Dean Trimble is the National Vice Presi- dent of the American Federation ot' Teachers, ami is a legislative chair- man of the Chicago Teachers' Un- ion. Dean Trimble expressed his pleas- ure at the response of this com- munity to the college and is con- fident that this branch will develop into one of the city's finest.

Newbery, Tony Cutuio, John Fludns. Oscar Zllunushkivz, and Jim. Kazanis. who, through a Key Club activity, were sent out to sea for four days. This is just one of the many activities of Key Clubbers. This year the club is presided over by president, .lim lt'tIZ11IliS,' vice president, Vince ll'f'iII,Il.' secre- tary, Rich S'chrci71cr: and treasurer Andy Ponder. The club consists of boys in their 2B-4A semesters who are chosen by the teachers because of their good grades ami leadership in school activities. Their first project is to help the Kiwanis sell rf-'inuts this month. Last year some of their projects Were: dis- . err . . . boys, tributing tickets for the football games, which they will also do this year: ushering at the Music Festi- val aml the Assembly for School Superintemlents and Principals: parking cars for School Superin- temients' ami Principals' meetings ami District Teachers' Union meet.- ingsg assisting with vision testing of freshmen: and a car wash to raise money for the club. The sponsor of the Key Club is William Bourgeois, popular gym teacher ami basketball coach. Mr. Bourgeois said, "The Key Club got off to a good start last semester. The boys worked well together aml showed a lot of enthusiasm. If we can continue to have this kind of boys the Key Club will be at Amundscn for a long time." The Key Clubs were started by the Kiwanis Clubs ami sponsor the annual Youth Rallies. GET LOST!! we have no found department!

The group is broken down into 302 girls and 169 boys. making the ratio approxi- mately 2:l, which is really living up to Amundsen standards. Twelve divisions were needed to accommodate all of them. They are as follows: Mrs. Avichouser, 318: Mr. Bayer, 1213 Mr. Couleur, 1151 Mr. Dobbins, 329: Mrs, Kempster, 316: Mrs. lilllin, 3013 Miss Owens, 222: Miss Ranclell, 2213 Miss Mc- Kay, L.R. 23 Mrs. Carlson, 2133 and Mr. Scroggin, L.R. 1. All the classes, particularly lan- guages, are filled to capacity. On 'tVednesday, September 12, and Fri- day, the 1-ith, seventy-five students from parochial and out-of-town schools were given tests that Chi- cago elementary pupils take. The auditorium, on Thursday, September 13, was the scene of the traditional freshie assembly. The majorette corps, under Kay De Vriese and Sue Galbraith, co-cap- tains, presented colors. Mr. Sim- mons directed the band as they played "The Star-Spangled Banner." Ushering was done by the Key FROSH-SOPH Three lucky vacationers were fwrolyn Stress. 2A, who traveled to Canada: and Phyllis Nt-lxnn, 1A, and Riclryu .llorrix who spent their summer in the Florida sun.

He then told the freshmen how many more problems one con- fronts in high school and of the various faculty members that they could turn to for counsel. "Grades aren't everything, but don't let them slip," he advised. Mrs. Bar- ney gave a short talk and then the band played two selections. Mrs. Royse spoke a few words telling the 1B's mo1'e about high school. Elise Anagnos, president of the Student Council, explained to them Amundsen's Code of Conduct. Nan- cy Skreko spoke on the activities of the G.A.A. Vince Reilly told of the boys' athletic teams, urging the fellows to participate. To close the program, the cheer- leaders, headed by Jeannie Ring and Joan Salin, demonstrated a few chters PINQIIIRIIIQ U A REPORTER Question: What is your opinion of Elvis Presley? l'llri.w Grrzlzrzm, 413: "He ain't nothing but a hound-dog, but I like him, I like him." t,'rn'olc Ifoifnick, 2B: "Presley's cute, but not the kind of guy I'd shriek over. I like the way he does ballads, but otherwise his style is for the birds." Jim Cote, 4B: "He looks like a modern Gene Autry with ants in his pants." Tilra Tsakis, 2B: "Ugh! I can't stand his sideburns. His voice is all right but the way he presents a song is terrible. lf he would change his style he would have more followers." Mr. Hfniklcilz, Language Teacher: "I've seen young men I admire more!" Nou Gl"l'8f1l'Il!I, 4B: "I think he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and it sounds like it's still there." Irene Dillon, 3A: "He's too con- ceited. His records have a nice beat but you can't understand the words. Oh well, he's a good hill-billy if nothing else." Rom Nielsen, 4B: "Censored!" Ilrtlillll Ronin. 4B: "A real neat guy! Who else could make three quarters of a million dollars in 10 weeks?" Aris Johnson, 3B: "Elvis has a classic profile and a great voice, but personally I can't stand him." Al Mclgoy, 2A: "He looks like a hoodlum but I like his hobby." tCollecting Cadillacsy Miss Muriel MacKay. left. and Mrs. Bonita Ellin, right. are newcomers to the Amundsen faculty. ell! CLCQJ This year Amundsen welcomes: Mrs. Bonita Ellin, Miss Muriel Mac- Kay and M1'. Afton Scroggln, the three newest members of the teach- ing staff. The pert looking red head in room 301 is Mrs. Ellin, the new art- teacher. She majojred in art at the University of Wisconsin and earned her degree at Northwestern. Swimming is her hobby, but art is her predominant interest. Amund- sen is her first permanent teaching assignment. The English classes welcome the charming Miss MacKay who earned her degree at Northwestern. Her previous assignments were at Fore- man High School and Chicago Nor- mal College. Hobbies are knitting, Traveling Light XVho says traveling's expensive? A couple of 4A's, who might answer to the names of Joyce Gustafson and Jeannie Ring, say otherwise. "Did they join the Navy and see the world?" you ask. No tthey couldn't meet the qualificationsl. They joined the American Youth Hostel, packed their saddlebags, and hopped the first bus for New York. Here they joined six other hostelers who were to share with them the glorious coming week of swimming, horseback riding, sail- ing, and soaking up the sun on the beaches of New England-all for 5F50.00. Youth hosteling's really the life of Reilly all right. for those who can endure 30 miles daily by bike, hardboiled eggs three times a day, and, if luck prevails, a springless bed to flop into come sundown.

The distinguished looking gentle- man in the science department is Mr. Scroggin, the third newcomer to the staff. He attended Arkansas Polytechnic, obtained his bachelor's degree at Arkansas State: Teacher College, and his Master's degree at Mississippi State College. This is his fourth year at permanent teach- ing, as he taught three years be- fore at Waller High School. His hobbies include the studying of plants and insects. SURPRISE . . . FIND MOTTOES "A man, may full but cannot yield . . ." How many of the stu- dents of Amundsen realize that this is the school motto? Above the middle door of school on Damen Avenue there is a plaque inscribed with these words. Probably another motto long at this school, that few know, is the LOG's own.

' I "Thank you, ladies," he mumbles modestly while the female audience demonstrates in a manner most unladylike. In rapture they gaze rnrough misty eyes upon their idol, whose suc- cess is attributed to tricky shifting around on the stage as if constantly dodging something, a pair of shaggy sideburns, the droopy eyelids of a camel, and a disarming array of red and blue, pink and purple Cadillacs with outfits to mix and match. NVhat has this person that causes teen age females to faint at the slightest gesture of his hand to stategically adjust a string of his guitar which is never played anyway, or the spine tingling gestures of his eyes and hips. What gives him the powa r to call gi1'ls hound- dogs, yet keep them hounding him for his autograph and records, and makes grownups, who denounce and tear him down, go out of their way to time him in? Looking back, this same feminine interest created the zooming careers of Johnnie Ray and Frankie Sinatra, yet these performers have proven their worth by outlasting that first, quick. wave of popularity. Only the future will tell if Elvis Presley will stand the test of time.

It has been in use since the school first opened and it is still in use for sentiment's sake. The Ed. It :lf bk Dear Editor, Now that we have a new group of girls using the tank suits why can't we have some new styled ones? The ones that are now being worn look like a few of Mae Bush's cast offs. Stylish Dear Stylish, Although your suggestion is appreciated, we must set you straight on the facts. The tank suits we are using are not Miss Bush's cast offs. We used those last semester. Now we're starting on Deanna Durbin's. The Ed. One foremost reason for going steady which first comes to mind is security of dates. You stand assured of attending "The Prom" or any other social function that presents itself. Also following in with this idea, you will always be part of the crowd. If you like a person really well, you won't care about dating someone else or won't en- joy his company as much as your steady's. Also, if you have marriage in mind, going steady is a wonderful preparation as it gives you time to learn about all the inner qualities and traits of your future mate. Dk Fl' ,lf Getting serious about one girl or boy too soon is one of the main objections to the cus- tom of going steady. Teens go out with one person all the time, which is exactly what they will be doing all the rest of their lives once they are married. Most teenagers aren't ready to be married and settle down, so why should they follow this dating habit? When a boy and girl are going steady they miss many opportunities for acquaintances with members of the opposite sex. It is by dating many people that you learn the qualities to expect in a prospective mate. The Editor's Notebook While at the football game last Saturday, I noticed one very peculiar thing . . . that there wasn't anybody there, and soon discovered that 1 had come the wrong day. However, attend- ance at the games has not been much better than that, as we have had only several hun- dred at each game. This year we have one of the best teams the school has- ever had and it is rated by some as being among the top five in the city. The team is well worth seeing, and if you don't like football, you can always come and watch the cheerleaders. That's what the football team does. A mmm who is pulling his own weight never has any leit over to throw around. They never exaggerate. They just remember big. For crzfry school boy with a spark of gen- ius. there are o dozen with 'ignition trouble. Dear Editor, I think that it is just disgraceful the way students persist in depositing their freshly chewed wads of gum underneath their desks. Sitting down at my desk makes me mad, real mad. My knees are all covered with solid spearmint and the acid in the gum is beginning to eat into my legs. I'm desperate, real des- perate! Sticky Dear Sticky, The people you are talking about are being watched by Ivan! As soon as his confidential report is made they will be replaced. The Ed Dr. Anderson This semester is will started, and 1 hope that you have tackled your work with vigor and determination so you, too, are well started. Like life itself, your work in school will pro- vide many challenges. When confronfed with a difficult situation or problem, the qultter will say "I can't." He may give up entirely or even run away from the problem and never reach his goal. DON'T BIC SUCH A QUITTER! . Instead, grit your teeth with determination and work harder to reach your goal. James A. Garfield once said "If the power to do hard work. is not talent, it is the best, possible sub- stitute for it." No problem or assignment is so difficult that you cannot do it if you try hard mough. Think to yourself, "If my classmates can do it, so can I." Develop the "I WILL" spirit which is characteristic of successful Amundsenites! C. K. ANDERSON WITTY BITS If you consider hard work a pleasure, you can have a heck of a lot of fun around here.

Head for the honor English classes! The 4B class is composed of thirty students who acquired outstanding grades in an English test given in their 3A semester, although previ- ously students were selected on the basis of their English grades. The work being done in these classes was compiled on a higher intellectual level, tlms giving these students the advantage of advanc- ing to the utmost of their literary skill. The English work units and literature books are based on a completely contemporary status. Essay contests Zllltl review work terminate the course. The purpose of honor English classes is to align itself with the modern trend toward a more out- standing college preparatory course, which is mainly why such stress is placed on the advancement of the gifted.

Fifty odd years ago, this plot of ground was leased to the city for Board of Education purposes, and the first school, a two-story, four-room frame structure, a branch of McPherson Grade School, was butlt on the corner of Winnemac and Damen. The rest of the forty acres was grass tennis courts, a football field, baseball diamonds, and a playground for the children. In 1927 this frame structure was razed, ami ground was broken for Amundsen Junior High School. The school opened in 1930 with Dr. John W. Bell, present District Two Superintendent, as principal, and many of the present teachers on that first faculty. In 1933 they reorganized it into a Senior High School. And now, in 1956, a junior college has been opened. Meantime, the park has further been developed to include the Chappell Elementary School, and the football stadium has been built, including track and tennis courts. The future promises to bring a sepa- rate building for the junior college. This fine development of what was once a pickle farm, gives Amund- sen High School perhaps the best campus of any Chicago high school. These present extensive facilities may be further developed to include a branch of Chicago Teachers College. Amundsen was named after the Scandinavian explorer, Roald Amund- sen, discoverer of the South Pole. He died in 1928 trying to save a fellow explorer in the Arctic. The principals from the time it was opened until the present were: John Bell, 1930-19365 Harry McKinsie, 1936-19405 L. Day Perry, 1940- 19525 George Olson, 1952-19553 Clarence Anderson, 1955-. Confused Freshie eeks Answer to Senior Problem by Sam Slanders DEAR SAM SLANDERS2 I am a freshie in high school and I have a problem. I was told to be nice to the seniors, but I think I overdid it, because, you see, I now own twenty-eight pairs of custom built., original, handmade, mechanical drawing shoes and fifty-six steam heated lockers, along with twentyf four elevator passes. Some people say that I tied myself down by agreeing to make weekly payments, but considering their great value, I bought them at a bargain price, just 552.00 apiece! I was wondering, do you think my popularity with the seniors will hurt. my making friends of my OWU age? A BIG 9B NO, THIS WILL NOT hurt your popularity. If you want to increase your treasures, I happen to have two steam heated lockers left. DF Ik lk DEAR SAM: I have been going steady with a 22-year-old boy for two years.

Bermudas Still High on Fashion List The teens have never had it so good, fashion-wise, that is. Never before have we had such a large field of fall and winter outfits from which to choose. Not only are the stores featuring some sharp school clothes, but there is also an empha- sis on sport clothes this fall. Sloppy looking jeans and wrinkled shirt tails are now as out-moded as grandmafs old high-topped shoes. The trend is towards neat, trim casual clothes. Bermudas not only are comfort- able, but they look nice too. This fall they have been shown in al- most every fabric from wool to vel- vet, from stripes and plaids to solids and tweeds. Another novel idea is Jamaica shorts. These shorts resemble the Bermudas in every way except that they are two inches shorter. If you buy a variety of knce-length socks you can mix and match them to your sweaters and blouses and have a variety of out- fits from one basic pair of shorts.

These blazers look smart with everything, including your Bermudas and skirts. Some smart dressers are buying the matching Bermuda shorts and blazer jackets. When worn together these outfits have a very collegiate, Ivy League look about them. Speaking of toppers, have you seen the latest style in winter jack- ets? They're called car coats, and for warmth and comfort you just can't beat them! These coats also come in a variety of colors. Many feature a convertible collar. And when the collar's down it appears to be nice and flat: if you put it up, it's a hood to keep your head snug and warm during those freez- ing football games. Cheerleaders .loin Majorettes in Football Spirit Want to get in touch with a cheerleader or majorette? Wtll, with the football season now in progress, all you have to do is go to the stadium any day after school and you'll find them at work practicing their respective routines. Leading the cheerleaders in such cheers as "Have You Got That Spir- it?" and "We're from Amundsen," are this season's co-captains, Jean- nie Ring and Joan Salin. Following their leads are: Jan Sterner, Eileen Yamamoto, Linda Thorsen, Aileen Peterson, Rose Schleeman, Lorrie Iverson, and Carol Peterson. The latter four we1'e the new recruits chosen last semester by the cheer- leaders and their sponsor, Miss Mil- dred Heindl.

GRIDIRON GALAHADS EDITOR: IOHN SCHULTZ Page Eight T H E A M U N D S E N L O G September 27. 1956 Spirited Frosh look Promising Amundsen's Frosh Soph team is again assembling for the fall sea- son of football with victory as their goal. The turnout for the team was one of the largest seen in a long time. Coach Carlson, who lends his able assistance to the team, says that the major problem seems to be lack of experience. This with time and practice will of course disap- pear and in its place he hopes to find a group of winners. Many of the fellows are big and well built and none lack the spirit needed to win. Now, new plays have been worked out and the old ones, which are top secret, will probably be put to use. Coach Carlson says, "The material certainly looks promising and I think it will produce some fine players." Some of the members of the team are: Carmen Grande, David Gross. John Vinci, Tom Leineberg, Don Haisch, Dennis Griffin, Jim Grif- fin, Jim Stewart, George Brandt, Ken Nicol, and Tom Thorpe. Right now, the team is learning the fundamentals of football such as blocking and tackling. LOSE ANY MARBLES? Hey, marble enthusiasts, a sport has now been devised at Amundsen for all our he-men not already en- gaged in some strenuous activity. The newly formed team has been given the ingenious name of the Viking Marble Team due to the fact that the sport in question is the artistic game of marbles. The captain of this year's team is the excellent marble shooter and the champion tiddly-wink player for the last four years, Herman Krovn- yek. This ace among geniuses will pilot Amundsen to its first. marble championship. If we are unable to excel in any other sport, there is a firm belief that Amundsen will have the best. marble team in the city for many years to come. For anyone wishing to join, please con- tact Herman Krovnyek at 5615 N. Damen. Running their way to cr berth in the city playoffs this season are the fleet members of the Viking backfield: left to right: Bill Pearson. halfback: Chris Pappas. quarterback: George Kalopeses. fullback: and Larry Tickner. halfback. EXPERIENCED SQUAD PROVIDES DEPTH AND SPEED THIS SEASON by Ken Knutson I Where will Amundsen's varsity football team finish this season? "Skip" Ketchmark, a student coach, had' the fright answer when he re- plied, "We have a good team, and should finish first in our section!" The squad, numbering 36 in all, has showed through their spirit and willingness to practice that they have the desire to win. They're also a very experienced squad with nine of the probable starting eleven return- ing from last season with a letter already under their belts. The quarterback post provides the only position of reasonable con- cern since it is the heart of the backfield and requires an excellent passer, a good runner, and a clever ball handler. To find all these traits in one individual is far from an easy task, but Coach Elmer Sahlin hopes he has them in Chris Pappas. If not, he has two promising sophomores in Charles Sylvester and John Strausberger as substitutes. The two ends will be no problem, if Tom Putzbach and Matt Cha- conas, both returning lettermen, continue in their winning ways. The backfield appears secure with such lettermen as Bill Pearson and Larry Tickner at halfbacks, furnishing the speed, and George Kalo- peses at fullback, providing the crushing drives through the line. Starting tackles are Jim Hagen and John Iverson. They are both capable and experienced, but will have to go at. top speed to outdistance the newcomers. The middle and roughest part of the line will include Milt Wolke and Fred Maier at guards and Bill Erickson at center. All three are return- ing lettermen and play their respective positions quite professionally. 1 Besides the players themselves, an important and active part of the team is performed by the three managers and two student coaches. The three managers, Bob Mueller, Stuart Kammerman, and Robert Snape, look after the players' needs while veterans "Skip" Ketchmark and Chuck Sklena assist Coach Sahlin in instructing the boys. T'."'9E.EE Tuesday, September 5, marked the first scrimmage of the 1956 football season. There to work the 36 gridiron hopefuls into shape was Coach Elmer Sahlin, ably aided by co-captains Tom Putzbach and George Kalopeses. The team had little time to get into perfect play- ing forin, but most of the players were in good condition after work- ing out the last three weeks of the summer vacation. The squad, aided by 15 returning lettermen, has high hopes for a successful season, bar- ring any injuries. The only injury thus far in the stason has been a broken tooth, suffered by center, Bill Erickson. Amundsen's first league game will be today, September 27, against Taft at Lane Stadium. Well, here's hoping we can go to the city play- offs. The other teams aren't remain- ing inactive either, with the bas- ketball pre-season practices start- ing October 10, and the baseball tryouts began September 11. Coach William Bourgeois is expecting a more successful season than the preceding one while Coach Fords baseball team is anticipating a vic- torious season as he has an over- abundant returning crop of experi- enced players.

VOL. XXIV. NO. 2. AMUNDSEN HIGH SCHOOL, CHICAGO, ILLINOIS OCTOBER 18. 1956 JOAN NORUM A SPARKLING BALLOTS BACK BECKER leannie Ring, Vice President: Carol Croak, Secretaryg joan Salin, Treasurerg Pete Benson and Frank Peterson, Sergeant-at-Arms .loan Norum., a 4A, is represent- ing Amundsen in the animal search for the Stuff- Street Star Queen. The contest schedule ranges from October 12 to November 17, the latter being t.he day of the famous Christmas parade. It is not entirely a beauty con- test: the girl must have top grades, a well-rounded participation in school activities, and has to be popular with her classmates. The queen and her court of five will ride on the Santa Claus float during the parade. Coronation will take place November 5 and her Highness will transform State Street into an avenue of Christmas beauty during the lighting cere- mony two weeks later. To accom- pany Santa window shopping and to examine special gifts that he will distribute on Christmas morn- ing, is another of her duties. The legend of the Star Queen dates back to the life of the daugh- ter of John Kinzie, the "Father of Chicago." Elizabeth, the daughter, became lost and her own fright made her con- scious of the d a n g e r s and swampy dark- ness. Thereafter she always kept a light in the cabin window for the benefit of strangers who might lose their way. She became known as the "Guid- ing Star" for lost travelers and the story was woven in with the Euro- pean legends of gift-bringing angels or maidens. The tale goes on to say that the Star Queen, because of her kindness to others, was reward- ed by St. Nicholas and guided him on his rounds on Christmas Eve. This year, the State Street Coun- cil wishes to add another facet in the tradition of the Star Queen. She will typify the prophecy of a bigger and better Chicago, a more beautiful city and one of steadfast growth. She will represent the leg- end that grew from the past and the spirit of Chicago's future. Ioan Nomm Teens Are Gay While They "Swing 'n Sway" Amundsen has something that many schools would be proud to have! What is it? The Friday Night Dances, which are a big part of Amundsen's social life. The Student Council, with the assistance of some of the teachers, the best in Chicago, and Don Bar- ber, the one rated second! Mr. Fuller, assistant principal. said, "we were really pleased with the record breaking crowd on Sep- tember 21. I hope the teens en- joyed themselves and will come back again. We have good bands to play for them, and unless the dances are supported they ,will be taken away from us and given to another school." has charge of the dances. The downtown office chooses 20 bands to play at the socials, and members of the dance committees then select various bands to play at their schools the coming year. In the next few weeks A.H.S. will be privileged to have two top name bands, Phil Herman, who is rated The coke bar is a favorite gath- ering place of all who attend these dances. The girls are not allowed to wear bobby sox to the dance, unless it's a Sock Hop, of course. The fellas must wear ties and a suit coat! The dances start at 8:30 and end at 11:30. Backwards or forwards 'it's Otto for President," cried the January 1957 Class as a majority of the members cast their ballots for the victorious Otto Becker. Sporting her "Jeanie Beanie" as she leads the grand march on that all im- portant night will be Jcan Ring, class vice president. Carol Crook was elected to the office of class secretary as seniors responded to her "Don't Crook, Vote for Carol" slogan. Penniless seniors appre- ciated the prospect of "Smooth Sal- in" through their money troubles, so Joan Solin won the close race for treasurer! Sergeants-at-Arms are Peter Benson and Frank Peterson who promised faithfully to repel invaders from the "sacred hall." Ghostly Society Governs Variety Gohlins, ghosts, and an ccric evnivfery will be the background for the semi-annual Variety Show entitled "IflIll01IJf'l'lI- Capers," to be held on October 25, 26. The idea of the background is: masquerdaers from a Halloween party are on a scavenger hunt. They get lost and wind up in a cemetery! The Drama I1 class, under the di- rection of Miss Marion Philbrick, opens the show with a Skeleton Dance wearing costumes that glow in the dark. Awakening all t.he spooks, the Variety Show begins! Some of the acts done by various girls clubs are: the Idbbs, doing the "Green D0or": Jicaros, with "Stranded in thc Jznigleng Kappa Sigs, in "This Is Your Lifc",' the Uhirs with "Hur- rah, Hurrah! Fm Going Away",' Tartans in "Tennessee Wig Walk",' the Zeus with "The Crcep",' Norias in "By HccIr",' Elites with "Jazz Me Blues": Vivs to the "Watermel- on Song": Atlienas to "Rockin' Gllost",' and Tau Sigs to "There Is Nothing Irilre a, Guy." Also participating in the show will be Carol Ceisla and Jean Litz in a baton duet to "Bell Bottom Blues." Joy Funnel and Tdsia Ga- lanis will do a pantomime to "Tho Old l'hiIosophf'r." In the line of singers there will be Anita Christ doing "Siboney," Eva Jenn, Dunbar, with "On the Street ll-'here You I,i'vn," and Jerry Patryn singing "My Prayer." Penny Williamson will play "Tea for Two" and the "Clarinet Polka" Equally capable but not quite as victorious were candidates Milton ll'oII.'c, president: Nancy Slcrelro and Iflfiiize Kenton, veepg Pat Witt- Iingrr and Sonja Ortnmn, secre- tary: Jon Tozrnsvnd, trefisilrerg and Ralph Lrzrosn and Chris Pappas, sergeants-at-arms. These sporting losers insist they had just as much fun campaigning as the winners, and now they don't have all the work connected with holding of- fire! Now a brief run-down of all the pre-election flurry. Nvednesday, Sep- tember 26, saw the start of a hec- tic week when the nominating com- mittee's slate was announced to an anxiously waiting Senior Hall. Following this unveiling of can- didates the seniors launched an enthusiastic week highlighted by frantic poster parties at the homes of various candidates. Basements, back-yards, and garages served as meeting places while these resource- ful 4A's exploited all the materials and talents at their disposal in an effort to put up a successful cam- paign. Dart games with candidate bal- loons, all those hilarious censored slogans, and the helpfulness ot fel- low Vikings linger as warm mem- ories with the echoes of well de- livered campaign speeches and hearty congratulations now that the fun is over. Speeches, delivered on Wednes- day, October 10, served to reduce mighty seniors to sentimental tears and appreciative chuckles as can- didates dwelt on their happy mem- ories of Amundsen on the accordion. Judy Kaplan and Barbara Smith will do "Sweet Old Fashioned Girl." An Indian novelty act will be done by James Williams, llurlmra Tuffs, and Charlotte Wil- Iimns.

Many students have been known to dream about it at night. Therefore, no one can blame a student if it becomes a habit and is carried through to his other activities. When one par- ticular person was being bawled out for being late to class he re- plied: "Well, you've drilled me so thoroughly about never watching the clock lure at school that I've lost the habit at home." 'l'ltr'rc nrt' In mr' turn lrirzrls of guys .-tnri only two that I rIw.vpisr', 'l'l1r' first l'1I really! like to slum- 'I'hf' fury who copies my !'.1'tl1lI.

The Xl'.N.A.'s tNVe're No Angelsi, a group ef Amundsen girls, has been in existence for twenty-three years. That would make the clubs' birthday in 1933. Mrs. Essie Bloom Albrecht, Mrs. Bernice Bloom Ehlert, Mrs. Esther Albreacth Hayward, Mrs. Betty Gates Meier, Miss Charlotte Gates, Mrs. Mildred Euler Albrecht, Mrs. Jeanette Miller Rentsch, Mrs. Mil- dred Johnson Oswald, Mrs. Mar- jorie Hessler lioll, Mrs. Evelyn Newberg Tarpey, Mrs. Shirley Gal- lagher lsaccson, and Mrs. Betty Spoonainore Ahl, are the present members. The club still meets once a month but they don't talk about boyfriends anymore. The conversation tends more toward children, knitting, and church business. On their yearly agenda is a mother and daughters banquet. an outing to be held this year at the Conrad Hilton Boulevard Room, and charity work in veterans hos- pitals. STUDENTS TAKE Over 100 Chicagoland high schools were represented at the Atomic En- ergy Exhibition at Navy Pier. Sep- tember Z7. At l0 a.m. Mr. George Lobenger, from Westinghouse Cor- poration, introduced Dr. Erie: Walker. president of Penn State. His speech was on "Infinite Horizons of Sci- ence." This subiect well suited Walker. who is vice president of President Eisenhower's committee of scientists and engineers. The lecture dealt with the four main requirements of scientific progress: l. proper political and social climate, 2. materials, 3. en- ergy, 4, scientists and engineers. Walker believes that the only problem in this country is the lack of skilled personnel. He went on to say that we cannot continue this rapid advance of progress with- out nicn and women to carry on the research. Following this, Mr. Burditz, of the Chicago Junior Chamber of Commerce, introduced Dr. Law- rence Hafstad. He is a graduate ol' the University of Minnesota and John Hopkins Vniversity and or- ganizer of the CJCC Reaction De- velopnient. Certified Photo Supplies 1949 LAVVRENCE AVENUE LO 1-7029 EVERYTHING PHOTOGRAPHIC GREETING CARDS i Fire Prevention Skit Highlights Assembly "Hnnnmin--The result of faulty wiring" was the verdict of Judge Otto Becker when the drama 2 class brought its cases to court, On October ll, a number of amusing skits were presented at a fire pre- vention assembly. The scene was a court room where different types of fire hazards were tried. Such things as faulty wiring, smoking. oily rags, kitchen care- lessness. cleaning fluids, bonfires, and a forest fire were called to the attention ot' the judge by Clerk Jerry Minzhor. The "crimes" were enacted by the remaining members of the drama class. The play was written by the drama 2 class and the members auditioned for the different parts under the direction of Miss Marion l'hilbricli. Pat Wittlinger was m.c. of the program. ltr. C. K. Anderson said a few words on the importance of maintaining an orderly fire drill. As a grand finale, the cheerlead- ers put t'orth with a few vigorous cheers. ATOMIC TOUR He spoke on cconoiuics and its relationship to science and engi- neering and the need t'or more system analysis. A box lunch was served at noon. The final talk was given by ltr. Fredrick Hovde, president of Pur- due llniqersity. He spoke on the requirements ot' an engineer, which amounted to as uvrch nrath and science as one had the opportunity of taking. He marked that an rn- gineering school was fine. Init a t'ew years in a good liberal arts college was well worth the time, A tour of the exhibits ended the fair.

This is Damone's voice and casual personality at its best, with Camarata's superb orchestration backing him up. The different female vocalists which appear with Vic have, so far, been well chosen and with fingers crossed, let's hope "The Vic Damone Show" continues its fine quality. "No Time For Sergeantsj' the hilarious new comedy now playing at the Erlanger Theatre, has been seen by many drama and pubilc speaking students who have returned singing its praises. I believe too little interest is taken in the legitimate theatre by teenagers who are losing out on a lot of good entertainment. The reception of the new record "Love Me Tender," by Elvis Presley, should prove inter- estingg you can actually hear the words, tune, and his voice. This revelation has proven that his voice isn't as bad or worthless as it has been claimed to be. In fact, he sings rather well. In looking over a list of the top twenty tunes, I could not bring myself to admit that I liked any of them. This is a sad case because I be- lieve disc jockeys have been forcing some tunes on the public by plugging them repeatedly. Something different, a list of records not to listen to or buy: "Pink Cadillac," by Rusty Draper, "You Don't Mind Dying," by the Jay- hawks"g Smokestack and Lightning," by the Howling Wolfg and "Dear Elvis" by Audrey. 1 Working May Add Money Or Hinder Studies All students in high school are faced with the problem of whether or not to get a part- time job. There is no set answer to this ques- tiong it depends entirely on the individual. A part-time job is certainly beneficial to a teenager. It gives him self-confidence, work experience, helps him to think for himself, teaches responsibility, and gives him experi- ence in meeting people. Also, nothing is so rewarding as having money you earned your- self. Its value is much greater than if it were handed to you by your parents. If you are only an average or slightly below average student, and have a great deal of homework, and need to devote much time to your studies, it is best for you not to work. The extra money you made would not be worth the poor grades you would receive in school. However, you may have a high scholastic record and enough free time in which to work. Maybe you would like to earn money which you can use to pay your high school expenses, or else save for college, or your future. In this case, part time work is the answer to your problem. Trip to the Continent Gives Student Views On European Countries By Sandy Erikson A month usually goes by quite slowly when you're doing everyday things, but this last month seemed to go by in no time at all. This was probably because I was having such a wonderful time. This fall I was lucky enough to travel through Europe and it was an unforgettable experience. Our first stop was Scotland and the minute we stepped off the plane it was quite obvious that we were in Europe. I don't know if it is that old world charm or the strangeness of the customs of the countries, but they certainly were unfamiliar to me. I suppose I felt the most at home in London because I could understand what they were talking about. But in France and Italy it was absolutely hopeless. Despite the talk of how wonderful Paris is, l was very disillusioned. The scenery was very nice I suppose, but the people seemed to be very unconcerned about anybody else but them- selves except where money ls concerned. How- ever we did meet a very cute family on the train in France. They couldn't speak a word of English nor we a word of French, but we managed to talk all afternoon by just using a French-English dictionary and a few motions. We stayed in Scandinavia the longest, visiting relatives and friends, but all in all I enjoyed my stay in Rome the best because the people were great and the city itself was very inter- esting. You never realize how much you miss your home until you leave for awhile. I'm surely glad to be back. SUDDEN THOUGHT Money isn't everything but it's way ahead of whatever is in second place. LOOK! LOOK! DON'T PUSH "Look, look!" says Jane, "See all the boys and girls trying to get on the bus." "Oh, oh!" says Dick, "See all the boys and girls pushing and shoving while trying to get on the bus." "Oh, look!" says Jane, "See how dlscourteous they are while trying to get on the bus." "Oh, oh! Look and see how the bus driver sticks his head out of the window and yells and pleads for mercy from all the discourteous children," says Dick. See how Dick and Jane get on the bus. "Oh, oh! Look, look! We do not push or shove. We know that is kid's stuff." If you do decide to apply for a job, it should not be for too many hours a day. Even the most brilliant of students require some time for studying. Also, budget your time in such a way that you get an adequate amount of rec- reation. EDITOR: IOHN FLUDAS "WHAT . . . ME WORRY?"

The officers are Vince Reilly, presidentg John Kambanis, veepg Violette Georgas, secretary: and Marlene Sehramm, treasurer. Each year millions of dollars worth of scholarships are not ap- plied for. Thus, all eligible seniors are urged to make immediate ap- plications for the Scholarship Qual- ification Test to be given through- out the United States and its ter- ritories at 9 a.m. of Wednesday, October 24. The test is based on a high-level scholastic aptitude com- posed by the College Entrance Ex- amination Board in Princeton, New Jersey, and a fee of one dollar is requested for zulministration al- though the upper 5941 of the entire senior class will be given the exam free. Reporters in Making Only outstanding pupils who have been recommended by their English teachers for their literary ability and dependability are members of the Publicity Club. This group, sponsored by Miss Helen Lindahl, publleizes the school's activities by submitting articles to local and city newspapers.

The officers are Ken Knutson, president: Omie Daniels, veep: Dolly Teislng, secretaryg and Lynn Brandenburg, treasurer. GOOD IDEA Hoping to inspire his workers with promptness and energy, a Ca- nadian businessman hung a num- ber of signs re'ading "Do It Now!" around his factory and office. When asked some weeks how his staff had reacted, he shook his head sadly. "I don't even like to talk about book- later it," he replied. "The head keeper eloped with the best secre- tary I ever hadg three typlsts asked for an increase: the factory hands decided to go on strike and the office boy joined the Navy."

This gal seems to have some kind of , magic touch, for'eve1-ything she puts a finger into succeeds. Those who know Teddy know that lt's nothing more than her contagious enthusiasm and willingness to work. When she has a job to do she goes to it in a big wayg more often than not, it's for someone else too. Teddy will long be remembered at A.H.S. as an active participant in Greek Club, fashion shows, lettergirls, intramuralhs, S.G.C., scholarship club, Honor Society and office worker. She in turn will long remember all the fun she crammed into her four years, most of all her crazy clubsisters and all the swell times they've had. LARRY TICKNER There's not a loyal Viking who hasn't thanked the Lord for putting Larry, alias Dave, Tickner down on earth in Amundsen's districtg not a loyal Viking who hasn't cheered him over that goal line at least once. But don't get the idea that Larry's partial to the pigskin. He also finds time aplenty for Key Club, track, Spanish club, scholarship club. And, like many a football hero, he gets along with the beautiful girls -if they have a sense of humor, mix with his friends, like white bucks, and can carry a conversation Qhm-m-m-m! J. A few faces he'll always find haunting the ivy- ' covered walls in his memory are those of Jim Kazan,is, Mrs. Dolejs, and, of course, Mr. Gonzales, who once extended to Dave a formal invitation to join the human race. Many's the Viking who can take this sort of treatment in good form, but only a guy like Dave could take all the laurels he's won in stride. ANITA WINSTON A little ball of rhythm with plenty of bounce-that's Anita! She's one gal who's never off beat, always ready with a smile, and bubbling over with personality. Sounds good, eh fellas? Well, if you have brown eyes and a crew cut, you might stand a chance with this cute little 5'2". But watch yourself-you might be in for a surprise. Anita's secret desire has always been to bid a date goodnight with a handshake! Surprises are common with Anita, whose deepest memories of A.H.S. include those happy times she's spent in the back of the classroom putting her eye brows on. Others could possibly, and very probably, be the fun she's had in girls' chorus, music festivals, drama, variety show, class committees, Spanish club, fashion shows, and civics classes under her favorite teacher, Mrs. Garriott. PERRY OLSON When he reads this his ears will turn red as a cherry, But it's hard to find someone to beat good ol' Perry! And that ain't hay! Backing it up are his 62 classmates, not to men- tion the friends he's made in the bowling league, variety show, drama, Key Club, Social committee, swim team, German club, and Intramurals. Of course, Perry has a few enemies, too. If you are one who begs, borrows or steals French fries from him in the lunchroom, beware! You're on the black list!

If re-elected to the office of chief dirt digger, I promise to do my best to help all my fellow Amund- ites: 1. Pat Mau will be supplied with a megaphone so she can boast her exploits over a wider area. 2. A complete set of Elvis Pres- ley records will be provided for the senior girls to aid them in "pick- ing up hillbilly accents." tDid that get your votes, Jeanie, Sonja and Joycetj 3. Such a gallant "roof runner" deserves aid, so Bonnie Oberle gets a new set of track shoes! 4. Geri Friclcey will get free blocking lessons from Coach Sahlin to help keep preying seniors away from her football hero. 5. A much needed copy of "How to Win Friends and Influence Peo- ple" will be supplied to Bill Ninne- -man. 6. To Perry and his "Inga-baby" goes a handy fire extinguisher to cool those burning faces. 7. The Beta dances are heartily enjoyed by Anite, Sandy and Karen so a season pass ought to get their votes. 8. Dale Wagner will receive a gold plated B-29 to add to her "Kenlection." 9. Senior Hall campaigns are hectic so all future candidates will get a solid block of 100 votes. Maybe this would have prevented the frantic "vote exchanging" that went on in Fr1ml.v's car after Pat's poster party. 10. Another election promise: Jan T. will get a white wig and cane for the times she goes out for a "Wally" good evening with those "older men." 11. Here's to the Tartans! A Sears catalog to keep your "salesmen" straight. 12. If Myra Colby opens her mouth a little wider she might swallow A.H.S. so let's donate a little scotch tape and prevent disaster. 13.

UNDEFEATED VIKINGS ON WAY TO CITY PLAYCFFS So far this season, Amundsen's fighting eleven has survived two exhibition games and three league contests undefeated. Unless Kelvyn Park or Marshall come up with a secret weapon, the Vikings are a cinch for the White Division crown. In the two practice games Amundsen triumphed over Steinmetz, 19-14, and shut out Lake View, 12-0. In the latter game, Larry Tickner, halfback, provided the outstanding play of the day by returning a Lake View punt 80 yards for a touchdown. The league opener came against Taft, the other White Division pre- season favorite besides Amundsen, and the contest was a thriller. Since these two contenders meet only once, they both were fighting with all they had. The battle remained as close as one could imagine and finally climaxed to a 7-7 deadlock, which Amundsen was awarded due to its greater yard gainage and first downs. The Vikings gained 163 yards rush- ing and 11 first downs, while Taft was held to only 57 yards and 9 first downs. On October 4, the exclusive eleven, with their Taft victory fresh in their minds. continued in their winning ways by blanking Tuley 19-0. The Vikings first struck 'pay dirt' in this game when Chris Pap- pas, the quarterback, sneaked the necessary yard over the goal. The conversion was missed. Now the Vikings were ahead 6-0, and be- came even tougher on Tuley, hold- ing them practically stationary. Af- ter several Tuley failures, Amund- sen again took control, this time Larry Tickner heaved the pigskin 40 yards to Tom Snider, who con- tinued unmolested for a touchdown. The same combination, Tickner to Snider, was used in securing the extra point. Busy Tickner provided added insurance by scoring a third TD on a 4 yard plunge. The successes of the Vikings can be best explained by the fact that they are remarkably balanced. The is as powerful and effec- the offense. The 'ground- defense tive as gainers' are averaging a satisfying 4 yards per carry while the defense is holding the opposition to about 2 yards per carry. A-2 Wins Intramurals Intramural basketball, sparked by the able direction of Mr. Fox, com- pleted its annual session October 9. Triumphant over all senior divi- sions is the team of Auditorium 2. Members of this winning team are': Frank Peterson, Stan Ketchmark, Perry Olsen, Bill Minneman, Peter Benson, Karl Rosen, Chris Pappas, and Larry Tickner. Dick Johnson, Ron Geif, John Iverson, Gary Pearl, Bill Lares, Christ Gramatis, all of 323, fought their way to victory over all other junior teams. 303 defeated all its opponents to end on top of the sophomores. The players of this lively squad are: William Shaw, Dale Schneider, Ron Simon, Erwin Weiss, and Alan Cohler. In the frosh division 115 pre- dominated. It achieved its victory through the playing of Andrew Tiudland, Tom Ray, Loyd Marks, Robert Buslick, Robert Binkaie, Joe Yaffe, and Norman Shapiro. TINP-OFFS s Well, here it is, before a big game in the Viking locker room. There is an air of excitement which engulfs everyone, and has them running around in nervous confusion look- ing for a lost left shoe or a belt to hold his pants up and his jersey down. Injured co-captain, Tom Putz- bach, is seen instilling moral drive with invigorating swats on un- mentionable areas with his 137 lb. cast. Effervescent student coach Chuck Skelena can be heard above the confusion chanting, "What's the word?" These two are followed by the manager trio, attempting to get in the way. Then while you are bending over lacing your cleats, some 603 lb. mountain steps on your hand on the way to his locker for a routine pre-game energy snack, a peanut butter and dill pickle sandwich. After a little pep talk, the bar- baric rush for the exist is ony and in the mad scramble, two tackles and a halfback are trampled. The remainder of the team can usually be seen dashing across the field for a sanction of safety. RED ISN'T WHITE IF IT'S BLUE The football divisions for the north side public schools are di- vided into three groups: the red, white, and blue. Red is the top division with white and blue, sec- ond and third. Each group has six teams which only play against squads in their own group. Schools in red division are: Lane, Austin. Harrison, Crane, Schurz, and Steinmetz. In the white: AMUNDSEN, Taft, Marshall, Tuley, Senn and Kelvyn Park: and in the blue are: Sullivan, Wells, Lake View, Foreman, Waller, and Roosevelt. At the end of each season the first four teams from the red, three from the white and one from the blue are picked for the playoffs. For every season win a team is given 2 points and 1 point for a tie. At the end of a three year period the team with the most points in the division is moved up, while the team with the least points ls moved down. With the present term ending .in 1957, Amundsen plans to be the leader in the white division and climb to the red. Frosh Plagued by Defeat' "This is the Frosh-Soph's largest year as far as player personnel is concerned," Coach Earl Carlson stated. For this season's squad con- sists of 46 players including such future Varsity stars as Ed Coursey, Dick Crone, Steve Georgas, Carmen Grande, Dennis and Jim Griffin. Jerry Jacobi, Steve Massau, Ken Nicol, Jim Pappas, Charles Peter- son, Sherman Prazer, Carl Tednes, John Vince, and Bardo Trancheta. The present results of this squad have not been too promising, for out of their first three games this season, the team has gone down to defeat three times. Tuley was the first to conquer Amundsen by a score of 12 to 6, a one touchdown difference that our Frosh-Soph was never able to make up. Failure to make the extra points cost Amund- sen their second contest 'against earl 5 3594 Milwaukee Ave. PA 5-M44 WE CALL AT CLUB MEETINGS AT N0 OBLIGATION TO YOU Club Iackets-any style or color , Senn by a score of 14-12. Taft over- powered Amundsen in game num- ber three by a 27-0 score. The fourth game against Waller was cancelled. Blocking and the offensive line seem to be the chief problems of the team so far, but Coach Carlson is striving for improvement on these points. A great loss to the team this season came in the Taft game when Ed Coursey suffered a shoulder separation But the Frosh- Soph still has time for a good sea- son and a taste of victory.

Vickie Brauer, 3A: "More mir- rors in the girls' washrooms for betterment of the student body." Mrs. Kenipster: "Put an empha- sis on work instead of on extra curricular activities." Lynn Brandenburg, 4B: "Just put me in the school system and I'l1 show you." Pat 0'llrien, 213: "I feel a recre- ation lounge with a juke box for dancing during lunch periods and study halls would improve the at- titude of the students. This idea has proven successful in other schools." Charlotte Schwartz, 2B: "XVe really should have more time be- tween classes and larger lockers. Traffic cops in the halls would prove helpful, too."

Dear Diary' I just finished talking to Judy Flcnzingg she told me about the fun she, Dennis Sall, Terry Udrlenbcrg, and Dale Schneider had at the Luther Leaguers' Conference in Rock Island, Illinois. It was held on the campus of Augustana college. Could it be that the rumor I hear about Paulette Schroeder buying a wagon to carry her cast in is true? She broke her arm in a fall from a horse.

LAWRENCE AVENUE ' cc an diss OLearys Cow Is All Bull -Maass EVERYTHING PHOTOGRAPHIC How many Amundsenites realize that while they view our beautiful building, it was at one time the site of a truck garden? Mr. Otto Maass, Amundsen's new assistant engineer, has many more tales to tell about the A. H. S. district of fifty years ago and all are just as interesting. Why just down the road CFosterJ apiece was Clem's General Store, and on a lil' farther, on Argyle Street, stood the seemingly ever present McPherson Elementary School. The Ol' Farmers' Market, located on Foster and Lincoln, was the scene of mother natures freak show. Such phenomena as six leg- ged pigs, two headed calves, and four eared lambs were often fea- tnred. Mr. Maass can remember the days when the area surrounding Damen and Argyle was called Wendt's Woods. The "Woods" were located atop a beautiful sand hill almost two and a half stories high. Imag- ine being able to climb to the peak of the hill and having a clear view of the lake and its surrounding ter- ritory! The present site of Sears Roebuck and Company was once the homestead of two squatters who had fled to the North during the Civil War. A little anecdote of which Mr. Maass is very proud is that his grandfather held a position equiv- alent to that of mayor from 1878 until 1880. He also boasts of a great uncle who aided with the capture of John Wilkes Booth after he assassinated "Honest Abe." Mrs. O'Leary's cow did not start the Chicago Fire, and a letter in the Maass family can prove that statement. It was actually caused by two drunken teamsters who were fighting. During the fight one threw a lantern at the other and THAT is how the fire originated. Makes quite a difference, doesn't it?

At Least 2.93 of Us Haven 't SINCE SALK SER UM S TUPENDOUS SUCCESS 'OW I THE TIME TO AC Since Dr. Jonas Salk discovered the famous Salk vaccine many younger children have re- ceived their series of polio innoculations. The question arises, however, how many of YOU high school students have gone ahead to res ceive your shots? Polio has always been a dreaded disease and to help wipe out this disease give a few sec- onds of your life for a simple injection. During 1955 polio hit, hard. One out of every seven polio patients were teens. Many teens think polio attacks the very young. This is untrue, for 15'?i ot' all polio patients are teen- agers. Each year thousands of high school stu- dents are stricken with this dread disease. Here at A.H.S. with a total membership of 1,887, 1,836 forms were passed out during a division period to find out just how many stu- dents have taken advantage of the vaccine. 1,306 forms were returned, showing 1,013 had begun or finished their series of three shots, while 2393 of these 1,306 hadn't. Why haven't, these teens had their shots? A great majority of them when asked, said they were afraid of the needle and didn't want these precious shots. Others answered that their doc- tor was out of town, or they haven't. made an appointment yet. In most cases these excuses are feeble, simply because the vaccine is avail- nhle to anyone in the hospitals. One girl an- swered the question by admitting she had polio as a child ami urges her fellow teens to get their innoculations imlnediately! Automobiles May Soon Be Crowding Horses Off of Streets New Invention Reaches Speeds of 20 Miles an Hour TODAY, we are constantly plagued by a menacing machine, commonly known as an "Automobile" This contraption, not requiring the use of a horse or any other beast is pro- pelled by cither steam, electric or gas motor along the road at the unheard of speed of 20 miles an hour. Automobilists all agree that the "auto" has no practical value. It is inevitable, also. to see a driver crawling under his mechanical monster to try to set in order the' many parts which constantly go awry. Furthermore, as it sputters and churns along, it drives horses and other animals, to say nothing of humans, into a state of insanity. Why then, must we put up with this menace to society? Why, must we live in this state of constant fear of having our children run down in the streets, which were once considered comparatively safe? We are of the opinion that these 'automobiles' which create so much trouble, danger, and commotion be banned from our roads. 'Let us once more return to a safe method of travel and not go flying around the country at these ridiculous speeds.

After seeing Rudolph Valentino's latest movie "The Sheik," I believe it will prove to be the most daring, inflaming, exciting picture he has appeared into date. In this movie, Valentino portrays a dashing, handsome sheik whose ro- mance and adventures will keep the women in sighs and the men on the edge of their seats. He's at his best in this story of the tempestu- ous loves and escapades of a passionate nomad on the burning sands of the Sahara Desert, where love is king and adventure knows no bounds. The latest craze in hair styles among the ladies today is the new "Castle Rob," inspired by Irene tiastlc. She is also famous for start- ing the "Castle Walk." Another movie worth seeing is "Stranded i the Jungle," starring Mae Bush, a story of fine English lady who is lost in the deepes heart of Africa and is adopted by the natives Soon after this she becomes the queen of th tribe. An airplane crashts with a handsom pilot aboard and the pilot is captured by th tribe, presenting a conflict which is met an solved in an unusual fashion. This prove once and for all that our Mae will always r main, "that ever popular, Mae Bush." P. S.: All the speculation about the new ide of having sound movies will never materializ the silent pictures will never be replaced. The are here to stay. Educational Opportunities Have Increased Greatly In Past 100 Years Education has come a long way since th days of our great-grandparents. If they wante schooling, they really had to work to gft i but today it is given to us. If our ancestors finished grammar schoo they were considered ready to face the worl Higher education was available only to th wealthy: while at the prtseut time it is r quired to attend high school and any worth person, no matter what his background ma attend college. We are fortunate in having better facllitie in our schools such as seating, lighting, hea ing, more books and other materials, and als a nmch wider range of subjects that can bette prepare us for our future lives. The well-qua ified teachers who instruct us are specialize in their fitld and are now thought of has hell ers rather than disciplinarians. School is also no longer considered a forit of drudgery that it was before, because of tht many extra-curricular activities that are nov associated with it. XVhy don't more people take advantage 0- these golden opportunities of education that ar offered to us today?

This was thc undisputed xerdicl after Ainundscn whipped Marshall, 32 to 0, at Hanson Park on Friday, October 216, closing a si-ason ot' four victories, no losses, and one tic. Halfback Tom tlnidf-r ki-pt Mar- shall in constant bi-wilderment by scoring t'our ot' Amundst-n's five touchdowns. Included in his va- riety of tallics were a ti-5'2ll'fl plunge, a 50-yard interception run. 41 60-yard sprint, and a 235-yard pass play. The other touchdown was made on a 30-yard toss t'rom quar- trrback Christ Pappas to halfback Larry Tickncr. who continued on downfield for the remaining neces- sary 25 yards. Two extra points were converted by l3ill Pearson. Amundsen should certainly be proud of its fighting eleven, and especially proud of halfback Larry rickncr, who is one ot' the cltY'S highest ground gainers. In fact. Larry, in several games, has car- ried for more yards than the oppo- sition as a whole. For cX2H1lDl4'. ill the Taft game, as a team Taft col- lected a meager 57 yards while Tickner gained GR yards on 1-l car- ries. ln the St-nn game, St-nn made only 56 yards while Tickner reclcd off 117 on 12 attempts.

DK Pl' lk Once upon a time, in a very small kindly candle- was loved by town, there lived a stick maker, who everyone. This little old man owned his own work shop and charged only the wealthy people, who could easily pay him, for his services. It was an old custom of the town to go to the great altar of the only -church on Christmas Eve, and give oft'eriug's of gifts to the statues of the Baby Jesus and the Virgin Mary. For the finest gift, the holy statues of all the creatures in the Nativity scene came alive to accept it, while the heavens opened in splendor, ami beautiful angels sang to all the world. Year after year, the poor old candlestick maker just stood aside ami watched the others. t'or he could never afford to present anything really good enough. After such a blessed event one vear, the kindly gentleman made ip his mind to spend the following 'ear making a completely different. uffering for the next Christmas ervice, llalf starved, he scrimped ind saved, and devoted all his spare ime to the gift: and finally, a few lays bet'ore Christmas, the magnifi- -cnt work was finished. The beau- iful work of art was a pure gold 'andleholder, in the form of the ativity scene at the town church, hat chimed soft seasonal melodies 'hen all the candles were lit. Over- light, the masterpiece became fam- mus, and kings ami men of great 'ichcs, t'rom all parts of the world mffercd the candlestick maker enor- uous sums of money for the golden iolder. llut. it was made especially 'or the Child Jesus, and that was vho was going to get it. Two days before the big Christ- ias offering, the little old man awoke to find his precious gift of old missing. lt was stolen!

Everybody is getting into the joyous wonder of the season. The Student Council and the Key Club are active preparing for their holi- day festivities. "Jingle bells, jingle bells," the merry tune is heard as tl1e Student Council begins its annual Christmas mailing service. Sending singing telegrams and cards to fellow class- mates is an excellent way to spread that Christmas spirit. And not to forget, the Student Council is hold- ing an open house. Members will serve coffee and cake to add to the faculty's enjoyment. The traditional Christmas tree found on the first floor will be purchased and gaily decorated by ambitious council members. Lovely, sparkling orna- ments made by the art classes will deck the boughs. Christmas is the time of giving to those whom we love, and es- pecially to those less fortunate than ourselves. Christmas baskets filled with food and brimming wit'i holiday treats will be given to needy families of Chicago. Council members will deliver these baskets with words of cheer ami glad tid- ings. This year the Student Council has planned a special project: a col- lection of food literature as a start. Books, intezesting magazines and other types of reading matter will be gather 'tl together and given as gifts to tl.2 County Jail prisoners, so they too can celebrate Christmas. Many lonely men will find Christ- mas this year a little more cheerful with something constructive aml interesting with which to occupy their minds- The Key Club is by no means idle. The boys plan to givc baskets brimming with t'ood and clothing to needy families. The activities of these organiza- tions are all aided by the coopera- tion and the willing contributions of Amundsenites who are anxious to join in and make all the school projects a success. All enjoy the pre-Christmas plans and everyone is interested in the happiness and welfare in those around them. These are only two of the many organiza- tions around AHS participating in Christmas cheer.

Walking on the wall to wall carpeting, one might feel he was treading on a bed of glass, for the last box of ornaments had just joined its predecessors in their granular graves on the rug. Because the ornaments had met their fate on the floor, it was nec- essary to improvise decorations for our bare tree with what was avail- able. Although the tree had collapsed three times and each time losing some of its ornaments, in its com- pleted form it was still a thing of splendor, standing there, the dill pickles softly swaying in the breeze. This was just a fraction of its beauty however. Here and there shone glimmers of the neighbors' costume iewelry and s p a r k 1 i n g through the garlands of nylons that enshrouded the tree shone the egg beater, Pa's reading glasses and a gold eyelash curler. Alas, an unthoughtful family member brushed against the tree, sending it flying out the window and hurtling into the alley below.

Students Tour Tribune "And this is a copy of a comic- scrip to bc printed in January," said thc guide. Immediately seven AHS students rushed over to thc table to read what would bc hap- pening to Dondi next year. Where iccrc they? They were on a gutdcd tour of thc Tribune accompanied by Mrs. Mtddendorff. The seven, who were Nancy Wich- ert, Jean Sorensen, Geraldine Skep- tar, Carol Peterson, Avis Johnson, Janice Hite and John Fludas, ob- tained tickets for the tour which was held on Monday, November 26. An interesting movie about the paper used was seen by the small group, which also included some visiting 4H club members. It told of the process of making paper from the cutting of a tree to the time the printed paper is sold on a street corner. The tour included a look at the printing room, photo- graphic room, and a peek over the editor's shoulder in the city room. Certified Photo Supplies 1949 W.

The musical tastes of some 2,250 persons were filled when it was over. To the band, orchestra and choruses, under the direction of Carrol Simmons and Maurice Dobbins, the festival climaxed approximately 160 hours of practice. iunltlf f Joittnqw by Vicki and Gail Football seems to run in the Iver- son family, John was awarded the title of "best blocker"g although for some unknown reason Lorie is not eligible for a football award she does her part as a cheerleader. Choosing new majorettes was a difficult task for the present squad but the lucky juniors selected were Judy Schroder and .lean l'ctc1'son... Capably handling the details of the fashion show were Limla Tellef- son, Sandy NIFIIIISUII, Gail Duck- mun, Nur' Kolt. and Dec I'crrll- Against the background of ever- greens and yellow chrysanthelnulns, Judy Katt and Sandy Sieunsmz charmingly represented our year as attendants. A wise choice was made by the football team upon electing Tom Snider, lfuy It'0l'lIftl2' and Norm Nu-mclson as tri-captains for the '57 season. Norm also received an impressive "sportsmanship" trophy. Speaking ot' sportsmanship, therc's this tall. good-looking persuasive fellow who keeps jabbing us with basketball tickets.

Junior Jane, a girl we all know and like so well, has participated in the F.'l'.A., Friday night dance comniittee, Majorettes, Lettergirls and the Fashion Show. Perhaps you know her better as Joni Van Kes- set. l The band and orchestra, which appeared second period for the day performance and first during the evening, featured as their soloists, Vincent Reilly and Rich- ard Fagar. Rich and Vince play- ed the "Bngler's Lament" and Vince in "Trun1pcter's Lullaby" by Leroy Anderson. The most difficult of the band pieces were of symphonic nature and were, "The Waltz from Eugene Onegin," and "The Russian Sailor's Dance," by Reinhold Gliere. Mr. Simmons selected numbers to ap- peal to all tastes, and popular tunes, also. Mr. Simmons feels that although the orchestra and band have not grown much in volume, they have grown greatly in ability. The choruses were presented during eighth period in the day- time and followed the orchestra during the evening. Joni Brown was the only soloist and was sung by the Senior Chorus. "The Holy City" and "The Sleigh" were favorites that were done by the Girls' Chorus. The Boys' Chor- us did another favorite, "The Ci- der Song." The Senior Chorus helped to bring the program to a grand close by presenting, among other selec- tions. "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," only to be climaxed by the 230 combined voices performing the beautiful "Hallelujah Chorus." Black and white was the dress for the daytime with formats and semi-formals for the evening. Accompanists were: for Sen- ior Chorus-Janet Abramson, Mary Cosper: Girls Chorus-Patty Voor- hees, Joan Reimer. Adina Klieman, Kristin and Karen Skonbergg Boys Chorus-Sharleen LaBott, Winifred Lemke, Betsy Le Schofs, Carol Hedl, Lynn Perfect, and Bonnie Johnston.

Strumming her guitar while croon- ing, "Your Cheating Heart," and "Old Shep," was Noreen McRae. Proving that dreams do come true were Joan Salin, Arlene An- drews, and Tasia Gallanis, who gave their version of Mr. Sandman aided by "dreams," Grimes, Olsen, Ketchmark, Ninneman, and Moist.

Christ- mas is apt to be a dull day given to overeating. Modernism has become the theme of the majority of the modern artists and window decorators. To this group, tradition has become a hidebound thing to be scorned at all costs. The proof of their attitude has been apparent during the past few years on State Street. We have seen such ridiculous things as pastel Christmas trees, powder blue reindeer, laven- der angels, pink dancing teddy bears, the tra- ditional holly wreath replaced by a sequinned pastel feather wreath, and even Santa Claus in an all white suit! A visitor from Mars, observing all the decor- ations and feverish activity might well ask, "What are these people celebrating?" Many of us have ot'ten wondered just whose birthday are we honoring? Aren't we celebrating a birth- day with the guest ot' honor carefully hidden away in the naves of our churches? "What a boy you are for asking questions," his father said.

Santa ities of music down through the ages, it comes to mind that the main type which has stood the test of time, better, perhaps, han all others is the religious music of all denominations. A good example of this music is in the age old Christmas carols, and although years may fly by, and songs may come and go, these carols have outlasted them all. They live on to be sung and enjoyed each December with re- newed vigor and appreciation. Because of their age and familiarity, they are often sung and heard with what may be termed an "indifferent ear." People guilty of listening in this maner are missing everything that Christmas carols were written for. This is 9. shame for these songs are among the most beautiful and stirring music in the world. The effect of their melodies and words upon count- less numbers of people throughout the genera- tions cannot be measured. A carol can make you happy or bring you peace, and above all. help you to have a happier, more meaningful Christmas. Clubs Seem to Be Order of the Day After most girls and boys have been at Amundsen for a couple of months, they begin to think about forming or joining clubs. By the time the sophomore year starts. they are all firmly established into groups of from ten to fifteen persons each. Girls are known to do this more than boys, but there are boys' clubs, too. Everyone joins a club because it is the thing to do, and nearly everyone is in one. It gives a person a feeling of belonging, and being a member of a group, that is true. However, the people in clubs associate almost 100 percent with only the members of their own club. They miss out on many opportunities for acquaint- ances with fine and interesting students, whose friendships would be invaluable to them. Most highschool have either clubs or sorori- ties of some kind. They are not a bad thing, but the people joining them should not depend wholly on the other members for companion- ship, but should become better acquainted with many students. 5f'Xf'N-fXSf'Xf'Xf'x"S fxfifxfxfxx xfxfx. iifsif Use Your Head - lt's the Little Things That Count s ex fxfx sfxffx EDITORUOHNFI-UDAS 2 KALA ci-inrsrovcsus December 19,1956 THE AMUNDSEN LOG Pggefive Story Cont. from Page I The big night came, and the kindly man polished up his piece of fruit, and began sadly to walk up to the shining altar. When he slowly bowed down, ami placed the little bundle beside the manger, all the eyes of the earth suddenly turn- ed to the sky. A beautiful beam of light poured down from the open- ing heavens, the star of Bethlehem shone over the town, and the air rang with the enchanting voices of God's angels, who came down upon the scene. The holy Christ Child stirred in his mother's arms, and accepted the humble gift of the stunned eandlestick maker. The Lord knew of the suffering that the good man had gone through during the past year. He understood what sorrow was undergone, and He judged the gift by the thought behind it. Never before was the little man so jolly and gay. And, now, to this very day, the good old candlestick maker proudly shows off his re- wards: a golden pear, and his new glow of happiness. "You, down. tltcre."' shouted Fath- er from the lieod of Hu' stairs. "It's tu'o-thirty! lio you Hzink you can stny oil night?" "Hr, thunk you," .wid the culloze lorrr.

A certain underclassman with long brown hair seems to be his favorite date. But let's get one thing straight, Ralph. She is 5'6" not 5'2". Dancing and out for Pizza afterwards would complete a per- fect evening. Favorite teachers here at Anmnd- sen include Mr. Ilill and Miss Hen- drickson. Ralph's most embarrass- ing moments oeeurred this semes- ter every time Miss Eckfeldt put him down about getting out of class for football. Anmudsen must appeal to this guy because he plans to further his education at Amundseu Junior Col- lege and later on become an ar- chitect. Try Phy.s'ic.f! New Televised Plan Amundseu is planning a course next semester in physics that will be a televised series ot kinescopes. Mr. Gonzales will teach it with a program especially designed for the high school student capable of car- rying a fifth maior. lt will be open to 3B, 35, and 4B students who have neither taken nor are taking physics. They will receive a credit for pass- ing one semester. The course will be a preparation for college and in the later future will aid the nurse, enginere, archi- tct, astronomer, navigator and many others.

Many things will long live in Nancy's memories of Amundseu, but all the fun in drama II, the Variety Show, and Senior Class will remain the longest. Her most embarrassing moment was one of the many times she forgot all about senior program and went to class. This particular time she was to be presented on the stage as a candidate for a class office, and just wasn't there.

Jean Redner, Diane Lachman, Phyl- iss Nelson, Sandra Lafko, Jean Pe- terson, and Marie McCormick. These girls were chosen on their ability to twirl, poise, personality, and scholarship from nineteen others who tried out November 27 in the auditorium. At the annual football banquet, the new co-captains, Ger- ray Glowen and Carol Ciesla, were announced. This group is under the sponsorship of Mrs. Manasin. Three new additions have also ben made to the cheerleading squad. Sandy Erikson, Judy Nicholaus, and Pat Zorn, who were chosen from a total of twenty-seven girls who tried-out, were selected by the old cheerleaders on their ability to cheer, poise, and personality. The new co-captains, Eileen Yamamoto and Jan Sterner, will lead the squad next semester under the sponsor- ship of Miss Heindl. Now, for the first time in Amund- sen's history both the cheerleaders and the majorettes will participate in the basketball games. The ma- joretes will perform at half-time as they did during the football season.

Borganna appeared to be the rage in black, brown and beige. So said Sophie Kalopeses, Dee Pery, Pat Thornton and Eva Dunbar as they modeled their coats of the beautiful fur-like material. Dolly Teising also kept in pace with the latest fashion trend with her grey car coat lined in bright red. Diane Liakos seemed all set for a day of shopping with her full skirt- ed wool tweed dress, and Omie Daniel's black suit with the new blouse jacket would be suitable for almost any occasion. Finally came the most, anticipat- ed moment of the fashion show- the formats. Nant-ie Butler, who ap- peared in her lipstick red chiffon gown, was escorted by Fred Maier, while Sandy Birk, modeling a pink tulle formal, chose Roger Korner as her escort, lted seemed to be the favorite color of Sue Galbraith also as she appeared with Tom Walton in her eoektail dress of this color. Arlene Andrews and Carol Swartz, both in dresses of red and white, Marilyn Anzelone in brilliant yel- low, llonnie Oberle in aqua, and Naney Skreko in white, were es- corted by Jerry lllinzghor, Ralph Peterson, Randy Dul'uis, Ralph Kayser, and Pete Benson, respec- tively. Skip Ketehmark seemed de- lighted with Gerray Glowen's gown of aqua, and Karen Jenkinson and Eileen Yamamoto entransed their steady escorts, Skip Reinhart, and Pat Burns, with their formals of shell pink. With the showing of the formals, the fashion show ended and the ol' harvest moon dimmed its light for another semester- The players then received their football leters and special awards. 7 , 77--v ,V MERRY CHRISTMAS - EDl'l'OR:IOHNSCI-IULTZ Page Eight T H E A M U N D S E N I.

Iohn Kambanis. Pete Kottra, Rich Papadakis, and Rich Schreiber. Impressive Squad Loses by Fouls Amundsen's varsity bucketmen have lost their first three practice games. Despite these defeats, the Vikings have displayed strength and potential. Their shooting has been good and the driving excep- tional. However, the Vikings have one disadvantage, the lack of height. Center ltich Se h r eibe r is our "giant" at ti'-t". From there the height drops to around 6'2" and under, which is relative ly small for high school teams these days. This height drawback tends to create more fouls, which were the ehief reasons for the first two losses. l-'or example, in the North Pill'k Maine. more than half of their total points were scored on free throws. North Park made 33 while Amundsen scored 16. The final score was 57 to 50. ln the Steinmttz game fouling was less frequent, but still had its petrimental blow when the Vikings lost by a meager one point, 54 to 53. The third det'at came from De- Paul. who slid unharined over the Vikings, 70 to 54. The Frosh-Sophs have had slight- ly better luck. They won their first, game by wholloping North Park's Frosh-Soph, 51 to 32. Against Stein- metz, the lf'rosh-Soph followed the Varsity's example and lost by one point, 43 to 42. Their second defeat came from DePaul's Juniors, LlINP-QFES ll'wII. fans. l,l'l'l'HIlH'I' has rioufncd, enfl with if comes the sport for lzurdf-onrt fans. .-tyain the gridiron fll'lIIlfI'l'S nzuxl take tl brick seat to the flribbliny :lemons who are ob- .wzwerl with the ifleu of placing an lIl'f'I'Nf2't'Il lnmwlnlll into ll damaged ji.vhn1'I.

But now, the tcp names in the sports world at Amundsen are John Kambanis, Skip lteinhart, Pete Kottra, Gordy Zorn, Ralph Peterson. llieh Papadakis, lien Knutson, Al Larson, Tom Sni- der. ltich Schreiber, Bob Heberg, Don Projansky, Bruce Rosene, and .Iim Smallman who represent a 1956-57 varsity basketball team with a bright future. And a special note to Vikings who aren't buying basketball ticketsl Re- member that moral support is usually the deciding factor in an evenly matched contest. Let's remember to Quarterback Chris Pappas won the title of "Iadies' man" and Most Valu- able. Larry Tickner won the Outstanding Player Award while George Korompilas was declared the Most Improved. The Best Blocker Award was presented to Jolm Iverson and the Sportsmanship Trophy to Norm Samelson. The Leather Medal, which is the only award that could be given to someone not on the team, was awarded to student coach Chuck Sklena. The three captains for the 1957 season are Ray Kornatz, Toni Snider, and Norm Samelson. Five of Amundsen's gridiron squad placed on the first All Section Team: end, Matt Chaconasg tackle, Jolm lversong center, Bill Erickson: quarterback, Christ Pappas: and halfback, Larry Tickenr. Representatives on the second team were Tom Putzbach, endg Milt Wolke, guardg and Tom Snider, halfback. Walton Sets Record, Tankmen Lose Victory seems just around the corner tor our experienced swim team. The squad's first competition of the season was against the state champs, Evanston, and the Vikings were slaughtered by a score of 79 to 11. Both Tom Walton and Ed Coursey finished very close seconds in their events, but no one walked off with first place honors for Amundsen. The second meet of the season turned out to be quite a different story. The senior group defeated the Austin seniors as Tom Walton set a pool record for the back-stroke, but the Viking team as a whole lost to Austin by a score of 58 to 45. The method of scoring these meets is quite simple. ln each event a team is given 5 points for a first place finish, 3 points for second, and 1 for third. Participating in the city meet this year with the results unknown as the paper went to press were Perry Olsen, Tom Walton, Tom Wendt, George Stray, and Gary Grimes.

Act Now to Win Many Valuable Scholarships For those who pian to attend college and who want to try for a scholarship, it is very important first of all to decide upon what col- lege to attend, as scholarships vary greatly at different institutions. The Scholarship club at Amundsen has been organized t'or that purpose. Illrs. Helen-Jllory llf-flin sponsors this group which meets month- ly to discuss the new scholarships offered by many schools. Pamphlets on the colleges and scholarship information can be obtained from the library. Mrs. H1 flin. or from the various col- leges by writing to them. Every time informa- tion on a new scholarship offer is sent to the school, Mrs. Heflin puts it in the daily bulletin, and there are quite a few new ones each day. Anyone who is in 3A or up and who is in- terested in scholarships and plans to further his education is eligible to join.

FOUR YEARS OF ACHIEVEMENT ARE SHOWN BY DIPLOMAS It's graduation time once again, and another group of Amundsen students will leave its halls to make a start at their respective careers or further their educations at institutions of high- er learning. We would like to extend our con- gratulations to those students who stayed on in high school and are going to graduate this January. These are the people who are wise enough to realize what a diploma means to their future life. If the students who quit school to take jobs that pay a good salary could have looked ahead and seen that although they make good money now, they can only advance so far and will remain at this level because of their lack of a. diploma, they would not probably have been so willing to take leave of school as they did. However, the person who receives a diploma can look forward to a career with a certain amount of assurance that he has a chance for advancement and a good salary in the future. Also he has the self-satisfaction of knowing that he has attained that for which he has been striving after for four years. People's Opinion Dear Ed: I am sure most all of the student body will agree that when there is an assembly the shor- tened period should be third, eighth, and ninth instead of shortening the lunch periods. No one likes gulping his food down and making a mad dash for the next class. This is very nerve-wracking. Lunch period is one the stu- dent looks forward to, and one does not relish the thought of a twenty minute lunch period. Starved Student WITTY BITS OF WISDOM I wonder why psychology is spelled with "p"-pscertainly pseems psilly to pme. An English teacher told her class that Mi ton, the poet, was blind. The next day she aske if any of them remembered what the afflictio was- The answer was: "He was a poet." Without a doubt. the loudest noise in th world is the first rattle in the new car.

Well, this is the season for it and a wonderful time it is, too. Your dress is the second most important, thing tyour date being first, of coursej, so it deserves some really serious consideration. Nowadays at dress affairs you seo everything front simple, straight cocktail froeks to elaborate, floor- length formals. These f01'Inals or eoektail dresses, as the case may be, are featured in all lll2ll0l'lillS, including chiffon, faille, crystallite taffeta, pleated nylon, satin, vel- veteen, silt acetate, and of course, the classic net, whichever you de- sire. But just make Slll'0 that the color and fabric you finally dec-ide on is fitting for the occasion. Re- member your dress must coincide with the different seasons. Now is the time to wear your rt ds, greens, or any bright vivid colors. In the spring you can wear your pale yellows, soft pinlis, baby blues, or any pastel shade is verv popular. Years ago long net formals were the height of fashion, hut now they are slowly being: replaced by the fashionable corlitzlil dress. Girls are playing: it smart herause the wear you 1-an get from a shorter, less formal dress is tar more extensive than that ofa floor-lengzth formal. Roys' formal wear has also ex- perieneetl a rliange in the last. few years. llefore, it was very seldom that fellows would show up for Z1 formal in anything: but a tux.

The basketball team, although losing several games by close margins, has shown good spirit, finer potential, and a better record than last year. The gridiron grunters had the best record that any football team AHS ever had, which speaks for itself. This was probably due to the great competitive spirit exhibited by all members of the team.

A T RRM5 FRANK PETERSON Friendly, nice, ami capable, well describe Frank Peterson, sgt-at- arms ot' the January 1957 class. Well-liked by his classmates, he was also chosen to serve on the Pin ami Ring committee, and the Nom- inating committee. Frank has also been active in Amundsen's sports, He has been on the frosh-soph basketball team and a member ol' champion intramural team. His most embarrassing moment is a secret, but occurred in Miss Jacobs' civics class, with Larry Tickner coaching him. tWhat could this be?J All his wondert'ul classmates and ltls favorite teacher, Miss llendrick- son, will long be remembered by Frank as he continues his education at the University of Illinois, where he plans to major in engineering. CAROL CROAK Sweet, unobtrusive. and ever so likeable, Carol is the best friend a person could find. She offers com- fort, when her companion feels the tears coming. ami laughs from way down deep when he's sitting on top of the world. She is already to help others in a pinch. Carol feels a person's biggest. assets are honesty and ati enthusi- astic approach to a job. She cer- tainly is not lacking in either quality. They have stood her in good stead at Amundsen in such BHIOI' PRESIDENT CAROL CRQAH SECRETARY, undertakings as the senior play, Honor Society, Scholarship club, class secretary, office worker, and division teams: they will continue to benefit her at Mozer Business College where she will study Carol's biggest moment was being elected class secretary: her most embarrassing, the one which found her lost in the boiler room with a male. OTTO BECKER Senior class president.: Prom COIN- mittee: National Honor Society: track team, captain: intramurals: all-star volleyball team: Spanish club: stage crew: Variety Show: Senior Play: science fairs: Schol- astic club: golf team: and all around great, guy. You guessed it! It's Otto Becker. Although it.'s quite apparent. how little spare time this energetic fel- low has on his hands, he can usu- ally find time for a laugh with one of his fun-loving classmates. Otto claims his pet peeve is his civics teacher, but he gets along capitally with most Vikings-particularly a certain extra special 5'5" redhead. Mr. fAmericab Becker's embar- rassing moments have been too numerous to record, so we'll skip right on to his future, and he has quite a future to look forward to. If his high school record is any- thing to go by, Otto will be a suc- cessful chemical engineer in a very short time. Ujjicers RtNCr PRESIDENT . 4 o nu ,snnm -mensunse IEAN RING Wow. Some girl! Jeannie! This is for our terrific co-captain of the Cheerleaders: senior class veep: senior chorus, president: Log staff: National Honor Society: Service Girls: Prom committee: Nominat- ing committee, and Pin and Ring committee are only some of the many activities which have kept her busy here at Amundsen. Having personality-plus, she was voted most popular girl by her classmates and has brains to go along with her personality, being co-valedictorian of the senior class. Her most, thrilling moment was when she made Cheerleaders, but what meant even more was to know that the kids thought enough of her to elect her vice-president of the senior class. After moving to California. she will take a liberal arts course at the University of California at. Santa Barbara. PETER BENSON A very busy guy around school is Pete Benson, sgt.-at-arms. Besides keeping the senior class in order he has been very active in baseball. Honor Society, Key club, stage crew, and intramurals. There are many things about Amundsen which will linger in his mind, but like many other people, Pete will never forget Jim Kazanis or his favorite teachers, Mrs. Dolejs and Miss Hendrickson. PETER BENSON SGT. HT' ARMS A good personality rates high in the qualifications t'or Pete-'s ideal date. Two dancing feet and a good sense of humor would also help. A perfect, evening would consist of either a dance or a movie followed by pizza at Welcome Inn. ln September, Pete plans to enter Northwestern University to take up engineering, but in order to keep his brains working until then, he will attend North Park College for a semester. IOAN SALIN "Hip, hip. Salin! llip, hip, hur- ray!" Except this time it's not Joan leading a cheer t'or the coach: it's the Vikings paying a tribute to her. No one is more deserving. Friendliness without discrimination, a contagious enthusiasm, sincerity. a spirit of helpfulness- -any of these alone would win her a host of friends, but combined they rate her tops on everyone's list. Joan automatically takes to those who can be frank without lnlrting someone: her pet peeve is those who smile at you one minute and gossip about you the next. Her ideal date should have a nice personality, good sense ot' humor, no conceit, and--oh, enough of this nonsense, it's Otto! Joan has participated in: cheer- leading co-captain: class treasurer: Honor Society: Fashion Show queen: Variety Show: and bowling league.

FREE TRIAL LESSON CALL FOR AN APPOINTMENT George Clarke RA. 8-4887 I Success Late last month the present 4A class ended its 413 term with a rol- lickilig social which helped to start iff the -IA semester with the eager anticipation of more fun to t'ollow. The -ill Social Committee, con- sisting of Jan Sterner, Dave Ger- aci, .Iaiiet Palm, Ralph Peterson, Pat Thornton, John Fludas, Sandy Swenson, John Burkee, Omie Dan- iels. Kai'l Gates, Aileen Peterson ami Andy Pander, arranged the pri- vate roller skating party at River- view Roller Rink which was attend- ed by over two-thirds of the class. The print shop was responsible for the tickets which entitled the stu- dents to be ex'-usozl from 7th, 8th and Stth periods to attenl the af- fair. Mrs. Wilma Duffy and Mrs. Laura Walz actel as chaperonesv A boy and a girl from each divi- sion were nominated to run for king and queen. The candidates were: Karen .lenkinson and Denny Jor- dan. Auditorium 1: .ludy Liljeberg and .Iohn Fludas, A-23 Rota Nielson and llill Kotinas, A-33 Kay De Vriese and Pat Roycroft, A-4: Sue Marshall aml ltalph Peterson, A-5: and Sally liee and Rich Idkman, A-6. ltota Nielson and Rich Ek- niaii captured the titles and acted as the reigning couple. Dick Ferrara, who had never been on skates before, was awarded a trophy by the management for his valiant et't'orts and for being such a good sport. After rcfrcsliinents, dancing, skat- ing, and a wonderful time long to be reincnibered, the day was topped oft' by an open house at Carol Bro- cato's, The first skating party turned out to be such a huge suc- cess that the kids planned one on their own time. The second skaters' ball was held on niarking day, January 31, and was equally successful. An open house at Sandy Swensoirs followed this gay event. Second Semester Reign for Knutson Through the medium of the news- papers, Amimdsen's Publicity Club has drawn attention to the achieve- ments ot' our students. Under the heading of "New Busi- ness," .lliss llclwn l,induI1I, advisor for the club, conducted the election of new ot't'icers. Serving as presi- dent for a second term is Kenneth Kiizllxorz .' vice president, Omit' Dmi- if-Is: treasurer, Karl fltlft"S,' secre- tary, Sandro Seifert. This relatively new club is re- sponsible for the bolstering of pub- licitv for our school. Its fifteen members have written the major- ity ot' all stories pertaining to Amimdsen High School and its stu- dents. MC Maurice Dobbins gains a smile from Miss Weseman as he presents her with a "This Is Your Life" book at the party given in her honor. WESEMAN BECOMES PRINCIPAL OF CRAMMAR SCHOOL 215+ will never be the same! Those who are familiar with the room will verify that. The chief reason for the change is Miss Marie NVese- man, who bade farewell to the t'ac- ulty and students at the beginning of the semester when she left Amundsen to assume her new posi- tion as principal of Farnsworth Grammar School. She had previ- ously been transferred here t'roni Wendell Phillips High and taught math before joining the staff of the discipline i'oom. A party, attended by the faculty. was given for Miss Weseman in the social room. The program, which was modeled after the TV show "This ls Your Life" and MtT'd bv Mr. Maurice Dobbins, consisted ot' the showing of a book containing pictures of all t'ornier principals, in- cluding Dr. C. K, Anderson, and pictures of the school and 219 help- Miss ers. This book was made by Alma Lelloux, Doreen Casper. and Diane Essler. Miss I,eDoux has taken Miss Wes- eman's place in 219, so have no fear-219 may never be the same. but its visitors won't notice too much difference.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GEORGE Editor: IOHN SCHULTZ Page Four T H E A M U N D S E N L O G February 21. 1957 WINTER WEATHER CRITICS From the IS QUITE FOUL by Sandy Erikson Are you a t'air weather t'riend'?--lt seems as though most of Antundsf-n's fabulous stu- eltts are, or one might, think so after seeing those LARGE crowds at the basketball games. Do we require state champions for you to at- tend? Maybe this is the reason we aren't winning. Football games are well attended: when the team knows that we are depending on them and that we are really yelling t'o1' them, they can go out attd win. We'll sit in freezing blizzards or pouring rain to see a football game, but to sit in a nice, wartu gym scents to be just unheard of. A football ticket costs you fifty cents to see one game. where a basket- ball tickets costs only thirty cettts and you are offered two games. You will never acquire more enjoyment out ot' your thirty cents going to a good cause. Our basketball coach and players practice hard every day at'ter school, giving up their sparc time so that Amnndsen can have a bas- ketball team. We can't, even do so much as to come to the games and support the team. lf this lack of school spirit continues, coni- petitive sports at. Amundsen could become a thing of the past: tlieu there will be a lot of people complaining. There are still a few games left. llow about showing our team that we care by coming out and cheering them on to victory.

GCOR El CORNER Carol Brocato .l-.I-Z-Z, a word which no longer makes teen- agers shrug their shoulders in repulsion, is the theme of uiy first column. Each day finds more and more young people joining the ranks of jazz 0llI.IlllSlilSl,S. What accounts for the unprecedented turn- over? Perhaps it is the availability of a great, variety of jazz recordings- Many excellent se- lections are even featured in juke boxes throughout the city. Perhaps it is the realiza- tion of the public that jazz does not thrive on squalor, dinginess Zllltl bad ventilationg that one does not have to frequent subterranean sweat-boxes and associate with the lower classes of society in order to enjoy an evening of jazz entertainment. One can satisfy his thirst for this medium in such respected establishments as the London House, or the Blue Note: both of which provide good jazz in wholesome at- mosphercs. Perhaps this sudden interest can be explain- ed by the multi-types of jazz. For those who enjoy music with pep, gaiety attd variety, music with a beat that makes you tap your feet- - Dixieland jazz fills the bill. You'll find "Jam Session Coast to Coast" tColnmbiaJ or "The Louis Armstrong Story" tColumbiaj enjoyable. l'rogressive jazz also provides many ex- tremely pleasant hours ot' listening enjoyment. Such old standards as "Willow Weep For Me," "Tea for Two," "Tenderly," attd "Two Sleepy People" can be found recorded on LP's by jazz favorites. Artists such as Oscar Peterson, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, and Errol Gar- ner have recorded these songs and many more, each performer presenting the song with his own iniprovisations. And last but not least is ragtime. Several decades of good jazz musicians came before our time, yet it is possible now to obtain recordings from the "era of swing." l The Editor's Notebook l A good beginning is important in any phase of living. Now that a new semester has started, these first few weeks will show how well we are to do iti the coming term. Working hard at the present time will help us a great deal in June. One good assignment now will mean more than two pieces of extra credit in the last week of school. Grades are cumulative, and a low grade for the first quar- ter will be averaged in with the remaining three quarters' work. l.et's work hard now, so that we won't have to work twice as hard in the beautiful spring weather coming. Seniors--a gentle hint. lf you don't have your graduation pictures taken, we may have to resort to using C.T.A. pass pictures to avoid camera dodgers!

They want looks to be in style and whether it good on them or not, they usually wear the latest fads. Fall- ing under fad is the the classification of a tendency toward long fingernails. All of the cosmetic counters sell preparations for the strengthening ot' nails and large manufacturers are inventing new and different colors and types of nail polish. Frosted pinks, plati- nums, and even blues, greens and lavenders, are being applied to long, pointed "sabres" otherwise known as nails. Of course there are different opinions on the proper length and color of nails, but most young girls agree that the longer the better, and al strive for the most unusual look- ing polish in their group.

C.'s Choose Colors A big "hello" to all the Senior Girl's Clubs of the 4A class from the LOG. So far the S.G.C.'s haven't really gotten busy creating news. Before getting down to what has been happening, here are some facts about S.G.C.'s for those of you who are new at Amundsen. The main ideal of this organiza- tion of senior clubs is to make each member feel that she belongs to a social organization that has both a purpose and a goal. Each club receives a Greek name ami a color for its club sweaters. No more tlian fifteen girls can be in each club. There are social get-togethers al semester, such as slumber par- ties, hayrides, and other activities. Sponsoring the S.G.C.'s is Miss Katherine Knaphurst. Here are the names of the clubs, their Greek names, sweater colors, and names of the presidents. Chaoes-With .Ioan Hclmken pre- siding they will have orchid sweat- ers and the name Delta.

In fact, hopes are slim for anything but a last place berth. The most recent set-backs have come from Schurz, 54-443 Waller, 79-513 and Roosevelt, 62-46. These games were typical of this year's play, a very strong and impressive t'irst half, followed by a weak second half. At. Schurz, the Vikings grabbed f AMUNDSEN BOWLERS BEGIN NEW SEASON "It's a strike!" This expression was often heard during last semes- ter's bowling league, when the "Lucky Strikes," "Stags," and "Drifters," finished first, second, and third respectively in the final standings. Individual trophies were awarded to Ellen Kasinek, who had the girls' highest single game score of 189, and ltlllery Simon, who had the highest boys' score of 233. .lean Juricic and Ray Nelson had the two highest series while Suzi Sheer and Howard Thomas won the "Sweepstakes" trophies. Suzi soared 116 points over her average and Howie bowled 113 pins over his average. A new season is just beginning and everyone is urged to partici- pate.

BY NORM AND STAN I am writing to you about this new wonderful school that I'tn non a quick lead and desperately kept, it. for three periods of play. lly the final quarter our lead had dwindled to practically nothing and was fi- nally surpassed. The same was true in the Roosevelt game. At. half time, Amnndsen had a slim 30 to 29 edge, This lead was strictly tem- porary, however, t'or in the second half the ltongh-Riders from ltoose- velt. poured in 322 points while Amundsen sadly collected 16. This season has been certainly on the dismal side, yet has proved to be somewhat of an improvement over last year. The only real bright spot. was the good showing by the Frosh- Soph. Although they didn't win every game. they showed good team- work and shooting ability. Matty of this Frosh-Soph squad have already graduated to the Varsity, and may prove in the future to be the win- ning team Amundsen deserves. I,et's hope so, anyway! The new Varsity members are Jerry Bei-ke, guard: Ilale Schneid- er, Lowell Stone. forwards: and Chuck Adamek, center. All four were Fresh-Soph starters and sank more than their share of baskets.

Leading the team is Tom Walton, who finished first in the City 100-yard backstroke and made a new Amundsen pool record. Tom Wendt, another Amundsenite, fin- ished third in the backstroke. This year the Junior tankmen have won three meets, tied one, and lost two. The Seniors have won three and lost three. Outstand- ing Junior swimmers are Ed Cour- Stty, Chuck Hoffman, Al Cohler, and Ilenry Small. Successful in senior competition are George Stray, Bill Kotrba, and George Jorndt. GRU NT AND GROAN On Tuesday, January 22, thirty- two boys ranging from 102 to 227 pounds met in the boys' gym to wrestle their way to victory. If you were there, you no doubt noticed the difference between wrestling as a competitive sport and entertainment. Probably the most outstanding difference is the tact that no punishing holds such as a hammer lock, choke, or full Nelson may be used. The winners in their respective weight classes were: 102-104, Pete Kezios: 112-122, Bill Fettes: 124- 130, Bill Dick: 131-134. John Da- mopolous: 140-1471 Gus liamprosi 150-158, Fred Mark: 168-178, Walter Moist: 181-227, Fred Maier. go to. 1t's named after my big brother Roland and wish you could st grandpa's picture on all the book covers. Well, the other day everybot was speaking of the bug basketball game so I seez to myself "Ole, y just gotta go." So I goes to the gym and pays a teller some money I can get in. Well, everyone is sitting up on boards by the walls, so gets a seat just as the frame starts. These beeg tall fellers that got pretty underwear on with the sizt on the shirts come out and jump up and down hiltin' a beeg ball at tl floor. There's two teams, one wid red and one with yeller shorts o and then some short guy from some prison team wasn't, getting the ba so he scares everybody and makes the boys stop bouncing and throwir by blowing a whistle. Then he makes some fella throw this soccer ba at the herring net, and even if he misses everyone yells at him. When the players stop, some pretty dancing girls come out to cla and dance and evryone jumps and shouts like crazy: and even thong I don't know why, I was shouting, too. When the game is half over I got my biggest surprise, Some vet pretty girls in their little sisters' dresses come marching in, and whe they're on the floor they try to break all the lites by throwing silvu sticks at them. Well, I got to go now because I can't miss the smiirgitsbord we hai everyday in the lunchroom.

SPRING HAS SPRUNG Page Four 4A's TO AGGLOMERATE AT ALLGAUER'S Hmml lt seems that something is missing in the Iune. '57 graduating class. One wonders what the trouble is. Could it be that the anti- cipation lor the Senior Prom has vanished? Or is it that the Seniors aren't going to have cr Prom or that they won't elect any class officers? No. ol course not. that isn't the answer-but wait-could it possibly be that the Seniors don't want to attend the Prom? The trouble isn't that they won't be able to find dates for that night of all nights. A strange new disease has afflicted this group, lt is called "we won't accept the Prom Com- mittee's decision-iris." It seems that they fthe Seniorsi are going to start a small riot be- cause they don't happen to approve of, or like the place where it will be held. The 4A's don't seem to be able to under- stand that the Prom Committee has put forth considerable effort in choosing a place for this very importance dance. Various members of this delegation have visited many, litany pros- pective locations. While 'tdropping in" on these assorted spots they have had to take account of the location, desirability, parking facilities, etc. But the main points the committee had to consider was the cost and the size. It is very difficult to find a place that will meet all the specifications, but yet be com- paratively reasonable, and of sufficient. size. Also, many other schools have been very early birds and gotten the worm, tlms many of the good places that would ordinarily be available for the Prom, have been taken. After weighing each side and angle care- fully and taking into consideration your wants and dislikes, the Prom Committee has chosen one of the rooms in Allgauer's Fireside for that very important dance, the Senior Prom.

Everyone has the same opportunity. Through education you can be helped to dis- cover and develop your capacities to their lim- its if you are willing to work. Nothing worth- while comes without effort. on your part. The best school, the best teachers, and the best books in the world cannot make you learn un- less you are willing to apply yourself to the business of learning. You have observed that no two people are exactly alike in interests and aptitudes. This means that some students may do better in some subjects than others. That is to be ex- pected. However, if you really apply yourself and work hard you can be successful. You can hold your head high with pride when you can honestly say you have givcn your school work your best. We will be proud with you, too. If you do not give your school work your best, if you are indolent and procrastinate, you cheat not only yourself but also your parents who are supporting you. Your most important job right now is school. Do make the most of the oppo1'tunity and you will profit from it for the rest of your life. What you get out of school is in direct pro- portion to what you put into it. C. K, Anderson, Principal The Editor's Notebook For the high school student, these years are those of exploration, questions, observance. As our make-up and character develop, we are con- fronted with the choosing of a vocation, an interest, a decision upon which we must pat- tern our forthcoming life. A wonderful opportunity is afforded the Chicago high school students this month. That is to hear speakers prominent in their own fields, whether it is writing, engineering, ther- apy, or psychology. The event is the Ninth Annual Chicago Area. Carccr Conference. This all-day affair will take place Saturday, March 30, at the Illinois Institute of Technology. It would be an advantageous and beneficial ges- ture to attend.

The true experiences of Colonel Dean Hess, U. S. A. F., are portrayed ntagnit'icently by Rock Hudson, his supporting cast. consisting of Martha Hyer, Dan Dnryea, Don IJeFore, Altria Kashfi, ami the adorable Korean orphans. "Battle Hymn" is the poignant story ot' Hess' struggle to find himself. While in YVorld War ll, Colonel Hess bombed St. l'et.er's Or- phanage by accident. This accident, which killed 37 children, completely changed his life. After the war his struggle to compensate, to make amends in some way for his error began. He became a minister. However, after two years, he realized that this was not his vo- cation. Then in the summer of 1950, the Korean War began. Colonel Hess left his pulpit and once again joined the Air Force. He was given command of a training center t'or the Korean t'orces. Each day more ami more children who had been the victims of warfare migrated to the center. VVith the aid of Miss Yang, Hess set up an orphanage in a deserted temple. As the North Koreans began invading Se- oul, military bases were deserted. However, all the planes had left the area before Col. Hess heard of the evacuation plans. Conse- quently they had no planes with which to evac- uate the 400 children in the orphanage. Did Col. Hess find a way to get the chil- dren out of the area? Were they saved? I'll leave these questions unanswered so as not to spoil the plot. I will say, however, that I recommend "Battle Hymn" to everyone. The feeling you have after seeing this film is com- parable to the one you had upon viewing "Love Is a Many Splendored Thing."

Let's go! Let's really GO-!" says Aileen Peterson, one of Amundsen's active cheerleaders. Along with cheering our school on to victory, Al is president of the Service Girls, Fash- ion Show M.C., and a very successful fashion model. Those crazy, hectic moments with her clubs sis- ters, the privilege of learning, and Miss Stern will rank among her happiest moments at A.H.S. Her friends will never forget Al's most embar- rassing moment when she was caught in the "L" doors and the calm way in which she recovered her equilibrium. Insincerity is her only pet peeve. She is just the opposite, being very sincere and frank at timesg yet in doing so be- comes very helpful. "Anywhere with Dale" is her favorite pastime. STANLEY PANTELIS It's "Stan the Mau," with horn rimmed glasses, an amiable disposi- tion and dancing feet. His type is rarep he can take responsibility seri- ously and yet, relax, have fun, and joke around in his own inimitable fashion. Stan says he'll always remember how receptive A.H.S. students were toward him when he trans- ferred from St. George two years ago. Since then, in a very short time, he has gained many new friends ami is genuinely popular with his classmates. This was proven in the recent senior elections when he was elected to the Nominating committee as well as to the Social committee. His other activities in- clude writing a column for the LOG, drama, the intramurals.

Well, Rich Papadakis seems to have procured the secret formula from someone-for he has everything, a rumpled head of taffy brown hairg a ready smile: four hundred eighty-nine freckles: an overflowing Ivy-league wardrobeg scads of personality and a more than ample sense of humor. This future Lake Forest business administra- tion major has his own ideas for a delectable date, first to a show and then out for pizza with Anita Ekberg or a reasonable facsimile. ' Members of the G.A.A, have taken up most of Rich's time during his four-year stint at A.H.S., but somehow he's found time for the outside activities he participates in, among them, basket- ball, Social committee, bowling league, Greek club, intramurals and Letterman. Her main weakness is not chocolate sodas nor Dudley Plus Crew: Friday Night Dances Twice a month wheels start roll- ing as Carol Dudley and her able crew whip into action to combine the right ingredients needed for a successful Friday Night Social. Car- ol heads the various committees which take care of all the little extras. Mereda Weiss and Katherine Guse, co-chairmen of the decoration com- mittee, see to it that the many streamers are cut and that the backboards are decorated to suit the occasion. Working closely with Katherine and Mereda are Pat Gleasner and Linda Quigley, who design and make all the bids given out at dances this semester. All of this hard work might go to waste if there weren't any way for people to find out about the dancesg and here Gail Hummel takes over in publicity. At the dance there is plenty to be done. These odd jobs are taken over by dance workers. Robert Snape and about eight. to ten other helpers check coats and sell tick- ets. These volunteers come early and stay later than most. The dances are chaperoned by Mr. Full- er, Coach Bourgeois, Coach Sahlin, Mr. Anglemire, and Mrs. Wheel- right. After all the fun is over there is the not so nice part of cleaning up. Zero period on Monday is the hour assigned for this project head- ed by Francis Edie. PONTIAC CONVERTS INTO PORTABLE LUNCHROOM Upon entering my automobile, I was completely amazed at the find- ings inside. Several hair pins, a few lip-sticked cigarette butts and a banana peel were scattered about the floor. Since I have a crew cut and do not smoke, aside from the fact that I aiu allergic to bananas, I im- mediately sensed that something was wrong. I decided it was a case for the F.B.l., but before no- tifying them I thought it best to investigate further into the situa- tion. Searching for more clues, I stumbled across several coke bot- tles in the back seat. Finger prints were the first thought that came into my mind, This was the evi- dence needed to convict the cul- prits. t Remembering that the criminals always return to the scene of their crime, I started to leave the area. As I slowly pulled away from the curb, I heard several high school girls yelling, "Hey there, you, where are you going with our lunch- room?" BITTY WITTS Page Six Editor: VICKIE BRAUER THE AMUNDSEN LOG March2l.l957 New Sensation- "Rock 'n Tab" Amundsen's gone Hollywood! Feb- ruary 11, .Ioan Helmken and John Fludas, co-editors, together with journalists from other high schools, interviewed Rock Hudson at the Ambassador East Ilotel. The star leaned against a table, lit a cig- arette, and awaited the barrage of questions. Ilis composure was test- ed when a girl asked if he pre- ferred married life to being single. Rock blushed slightly and said both had their advantages. His latest release is "Battle lIymn" for Uni- versal International. Monday, March -t, Joan, John, Carol Brocato, Omie Daniels, Karl Gates, Doris Anderson, and Pat Diangson appeared on "America After Dark." They met Tab Hunt- er in person at the NBC studios in the Merchandise Mart. Tab, accom- panied by lrv Kupcinet, told re- porters t'rom over fifteen high schools that he was touring the country for "The Spirit of St. Louis," starring Jimmy Stewart.

At 11 p.m., the pro- gram was on the air and Tab an- swered questions like "Who is your favorite date'?", "Do you think 'Young Love' would have sold without your name on the label?", and "What do you consider your best performance'?", with casual poise. He told the group he chooses his own dates and has two best girls. One of his favorite singers is Frank Sinatra, but he admits he doesn't measure up to Frankie.

Course Now Offered For "Hopeless" Coeds A course in management is be- ing offercd at thc junior and sen- ior levcls as an answer to the in- terests and needs of the girls ap- proaching graduation. The pros- pect of the future is viewed with anticipation of a new environment and new rcsponsibiltes. This course includes two semes- ters of work. Either semester may precede the other. lt will be five periods a week, no lab, and a ma- jor credit, will be given. Among the units to be studied in the course will be: the func- tions of the modern home. stand- ards t'or housing, factors influenc- ing the selection of an apartment or home, methods of financing and furnishing the home attractively and suitably, household efficiency, home care of the sick, care of chil- dren. intelligent buying, family rc- lationships and cultivation ol' good social customs for gracious living. as well as the development of worthwhile leisure time activities. The major concern of such a course, taught by home economics teachers, would be to help the jun- ior and senior girls understand the significance of their responsibili- ties as family members-present and future- and to provide experi- ences in which democratic ideals would guide their day-by-day rela- tionships.

Phew, is it ever hot! What? You say it's only 5007 Well, the difference in temperature is only a column prop used to put you in the mood. Imagine that you are in sunny Florida, viewing the 1957 line of Catalina swim-wear. The show is just beginning, so sit back, relax, and select your new swim suit from this stunning collection. Heading the parade we see the popular cotton bathing suit in a pastel colored plaid. It also comes in different colors styled with "lit- tle boy legs," in a sheath style, and in the full skirted style as pictured above. The wrinkle shed material makes this suit very practical. The sheath style has a pnckered back and dainty lace trim on the bodice and straps. It has a matching sleeveless shirt. Next we see a dotted Swiss number with a fitted bodice and shirred adjustable pan- taloons with ruffles which extend from the hip to the back. Pastel colored stripes, crease resistant fab- ric, an elongated, fitted torso, and an all around pleated skirt over bloomers make the next suit unique. A striped suit of everglaze cotton with a fitted torso and pert all around pleats describe the last suit in the cotton category. The second group of suits are made of Lastex. Our first model wears a daring low back sheath with a metalic bordered halter and trim on the back. Next we see a solid color suit with an embroid- ered trim on the top and an em- pire waistline. The embroidery is of at floral design in colors con- trasting with that of the suit. pictured above are purely tigments of awn only to aid in the telling of the Something very different, but cute, is the suit. pictured above in polka- dot with thc "little boy leg." It has a contrasting waist nipping weskit with two buttons on the front. Next on the parade is a suit which is also made in orlon knit. This suit is a solid color and has a V-neck halter with a very low-cut back. Again we sec the "little boy leg." This suit has solid color trim on thc bodice and pockets to ac- centuate thc vertical and horizon- tal stripes. A princess sheath with open slashes and contrasting piping on the sides describes this Lastcx luiuiber. A pleated nylon bodice covered with jet head beads makes the next suit extremely striking. This year will be a big one for cotton knit. As we can see from the above pictures, stripes are very predominant in this field. Our first suit is a multi-colored one with stripes of various sizes. The colors of red, gray, yellow, and brown make this a very lovely one. A middy style is carried out in the next suit which is multi-colored, has black trim on the bra and thc shorts- In nylon knit is a suit which is extremely plain and figure molding with a scoop neck and back.

STRIKE THREE Editor: KEN KNUTSON Page Eight THE AMUNDSEN LOG March 21.1957 Baseball S ason Begin April It Cagers Finish: Kambanis Voted Most Valuable Amundst-n's 1056-57 basketball season is now only history, and ac- cording to statistics, it is not very pleasant history. Although this sea- son was lopsided by many defeats it has also had its share of thrill- ing moments. Highlighting such memories was Amundse-n's rousing win over a highly confident Sul- livan quintet. ln this contest, the cagers reached their peak, both of- fensively and defensively as they defeated their first, league rival in two years, X1-57 ltich Schreiber was high man in this game, collect- ing 21 points. Another memorable moment came early in the season in the second meeting with Kelvyn Park. Al- though Amundsen won this contest, 66-64, it required a long set, shot by Pete Kottra. in the final seconds to break the tie. The point makers this year were John Kambanis and Tom Snider. John missed scoring 200 points for the whole season by one point. He collected 190 points including 75 free throws and 61 field goals. Second in season scoring was for- ward Tom Snider. Ile sank -I3 free throws and 66 field goals for a 185- point. total. The victory over Sullivan was not a complete surprise to Coach Bourgeois. In the Von Steuben game, the Vikings kept dangerously close as far as Von supporters are concerned. The final score was 53- 47, the low score a result of Von's stalling tactics in the last quarter. The last, game of this season was against mighty Lane. Lane won this contest with a score of 63-52 but had to stall in the final period to guarantee their ninth straight league victory. W Waiting for the gun before they submerge into the blue depths are Iohn Diacou and Tom Wendt, both senior swim team members. Dave Na- nos. standing on the diving board, keeps a critical eye on his teammates. AMUNDSEN PLACES FOURTH IN NORTHWEST SWIM RELAYS by lean Sorensen The Northwest Relays held at Lane Tech, on February 26, gave Amundsen the opportunity of showing off its fine swim team and also taking fourth place among all northwest schools participating. Lane placed first in the event with 55 points folowed by Schurz, 51: Austin. 495 and Amundsen, 39. Ribbons were awarded for second place in the backstrokc relay to Gerry Ryan, Tom NVaIton, and Tom lVendt. Chuck Hoffman, Al Cohler, and Tom Wendt took third place in the breast stroke relay. Other meets attended by the swim team have been on March 13 at Wells and March 20 at Lane. The latter was the triangular meet be- tween Amundsen, Lane, and Lake View. Still in the future on March 26, 27, and 28 is the city meet held at Calumet.. Getting the fellows in shape is Coach Carlson. Practice is held every day after school here at Amundsen. Captains of the team are Tom Wendt and Tom Walton.

Team Confident Oi Finishing High In Section "lf we can just get a few good pitchers this year." reports Jim Fox, varsity baseball ceach, "I'm confident that we can go a long way in the sectional play-offs." Last season, the main drawback was the disappointment, of losing ball games by one run. In spite ot' this, tho senior squad still fin- ished fourth in the North Section standings. With the team ot' last year being composed mostly of un- derclasslnen, they should have grown in experience and should be playing a championship grade of baseball this season. Some of the athletes who will be carrying the bulk of the team's burdens with their bats include llale Schneider and Pete Kottra. Dale, at shortstop, was one of last season's leading hitters and fielders while Pete played the outfield and did his share of the pitching duties. Jolm Kambanis and Skip Reinhart, two versatile athletes, will assume the first string duties at second base and catcher, respectively. .l!!'.19..'ff.E. f The Amundsen sports limelight now changes from the Viking cag- ers to the baseball nine, with sev- eral fellows exchanging oversized jerseys for beatout mitts and hats. Among theln are lficll I'upuduki.s. Imlc Schneider, Gordy Zorn, Pefc Koffru. John Kumbunix and Skip lfeinhurt. The latter three are re- turning lettermen from last se- mester. During the baseball season, "Day O," and "Baby, It's Cold Outside" held the top positions on the show- er-room hit parade. The free throw trophy goes to John Ix'1nnbunis. who scored 75 points out of 109 tries. John was also the meekest player ot' the sea- son. He had only a total of 41 fouls for all 19 games.

SPRING HAS SPRUNC Page Four THE AMUNDSEN LOG Editor: IOHN SCHULTZ March 21, 1957 4A's TO AGGLOMERATE AT AlLGAUER'S Hmml It seems that something is missing in the Iune, '57 graduating class. One wonders what the trouble is. Could it be that the anti- cipation lor the Senior Prom has vanished? Or is it that the Seniors aren't going to have ct Prom or that they won't elect any class ollicers? No. ol course not. that isn't the answer-but wait-could it possibly be that the Seniors don't want to attend the Prom? The trouble isn't that they won't be able to find dates I'or that night of all nights, A strange new disease has afflicted this group. lt is called "we won't accept the Prom Com- 1nittee's decision-itis." It seems that they tthe Seniorsl are going to start a small riot be- cause they don't happen to approve of, or like the place where it will be held. The 4A's don't seem to be able to under- stand that the Prom Committee has put forth considerable effort in choosing a place for this very importance dance. Various members of this delegation have visited many, many pros- pective locations. While "dropping in" on these assorted spots they have had to take account of the location, desirability, parking facilities, etc. llut the main points the committee had to consider was the cost and the size. It is very difficult to find a place that will meet all the specifications, but yet be com- paratively reasonable, and ol' sufficient size. Also, many other schools have been very early birds and gotten the worm, thus many of the good places that would ordinarily be available for the Prom, have been taken. After weighing each side and angle care- fully and taking into consideration your wants and dislikes, the Prom Committee has chosen one ot' the rooms in Allgauer's Fireside for that very important dance, the Senior Prom.

O AN M, Nr-sis Muni ,O4 M., '40 if xfzxfiv yu Mo UNU-, U ill From the Desk of Dr. Anderson As teenagers in America yell have the great- est opportunity on earth--the opportunity to get as much education as you want at public expense. Everyone has the same opportunity. Through education you can be helped to dis- cover and develop your capacities to their lim- its if you are willing to work. Nothing worth- while comes without effort on your part. The best school, the best teachers, and the best books in the world cannot make you learn un- less you are willing to apply yourself to the business of learning. You have observed that no two people are exactly alike in interests and aptitudes- This means that some students may do better in some subjects than others. That is to be ex- pected. However, if you really apply yourself and work hard you can be successful. You can hold your head high with pride when you can honestly say you have given your school work your best. We will be proud with you, too. If you do not give your school work your best., if you are indolent, and procrastinate, you cheat not only yourself but also your parents who are supporting you. Your most important job right now is school. Do make the most of the opportunity and you will profit from it for the rest of your life. What you get out of school is in direct pro- portion to what you put into it. C. K. Anderson, Principal The Editors Notebook For the high school student, these years are those of exploration, questions, observance. As our make-up and character develop, we are con- fronted with the choosing of a vocation, an interest, a decision upon which we must pat- t9I'll our forthcoming life. A wonderful opportunity is afforded the Chicago high school students this month. That is to hear speakers prominent in their own fields, whether it is writing, engineering, ther- apy, or psychology. The event is the Ninth Annual Chicago Arca Career Conference. This all-day affair will take place Saturday, March 30, at the Illinois Institute of Technology. It would be an advantageous and beneficial ges- ture to attend.

N CRITICS I CORNER Carol Brocato "Battle Hy1nn" is, in my opinion, a truly great picture in the fullest, sense of the word. The true experiences of Colonel Dean Hess, U. S. A. F., are portrayed magnificently by Roch Hudson: his supporting cast consisting of lylartha Hyer, Dan Duryea, lion IJeFore, Anna Kashfi. and the adorable Korean orphans. "Battle Hymn" is the poignant story of Hess' struggle to find himself. While in World War II, Colonel Hess bombed St. l'et,er's Or- phanage by accident. This accident, which killed 37 children, completely changed his life. After the war his struggle to compensate, to make amends in some way for his error began. Ile became a minister. However, after two years, he realized that this was not his vo- cation. Then in the summer ot' 1950, the Korean War began. Colonel Hess left, his pulpit ami once again joined the Air Force. He was given command of a training center for the Korean forces. Each day more and more children who had been the victims of warfare migrated to the center. With the aid of Miss Yang, Hess set up an orphanage in a deserted temple. As the North Koreans began invading Se- oul, military bases were deserted, However, all the planes had left the area before Col. Hess heard of the evacuation plans. Conse- quently they had no planes with which to cvac- uate the 400 children in the orphanage. Did Col. Hess find a way to get. the chil- dren out of the area? Were they saved? I'll leave these questions unanswered so as not to spoil the plot. I will say, however, that I recommend "Battle Hymn" to everyone. The feeling you have after seeing this film is C0111- parable to the one you had upon viewing "Love Is a Many Splendored Thing."

Car- ol heads the various committees which take care of all the little extras. Mereda Weiss and Katherine Guse, co-chairmen of the decoration com- mittee, see to it that the many streamers are cut and that the backboards are decorated to suit the occasion. Working closely with Katherine and Mereda are Pat Gleasner and Linda Quigley, who design ami make all the bids given out at dances this semester. All of this hard work might go to waste if there wcreu't any way for people to find out about the dances: and here Gail Hummel takes over in publicity. At the dance there is plenty to be done. These odd jobs are taken over by dance workers. Robert Snape and about eight to ten other helpers check coats and sell tick- ets. These volunteers come early and stay later than most. The dances are chaperoned by Mr. Full- er, Coach Bourgeois, Coach Sahliu. Mr. Anglemire, and Mrs. Wheel- right. After all the fun is over there is the not so nice part of cleaning up. Zero period on Monday is the hour assigned for this project head- ed by Francis Edie. PONTIAC CONVERTS INTO PORTABLE LU NCHROOM Upon entering my automobile, I was completely amazed at the find- ings inside. Several hair pins, a few lip-sticked cigarette butts ami a banana peel were scattered about the floor. Since I have a crew cut and do not smoke, aside from the fact that I am allergic to bananas, I im- mediately sensed that something was wrong. I decided it was a case for the F.B.I., but before no- tifying them I thought it best to investigate further into the situa- tion. Searching for more clues, I stumbled across several coke bot- tles in the back seat. Finger prints were the first thought that came into my mind. This was the evi- dence needed to convict the cul- prits. Remembering that the criminals always return to the scene of their crime, I started to leave the area. As I slowly pulled away from the curb, I heard several high school girls yelling, "Hey there, you, where are you going with our lunch- room?"

OWERS FOR EVERY OCCASION WE TELEGRAPH FLOWERS A F CUT OUT AND MAIL COUPON Phone ED 4-0850 Course Now Offered For "Hopeless" Coeds A course in management is be- ing offt-red at the junior and sen- ior levels as an answer to the in- terests and needs of thc girls ap- proaching graduation. The pros- pect of the t'uture is viewed with anticipation of a new environment and new responsibiltes. This course includes two SCIIIQS- ters of work. Either semester may precede the other. lt will be five periods a week, no lab, and a ma- jor credit will bc given. Among thc units to be studied in the course will be: the func- tions of the modern homo, stand- ards t'or housing, factors influenc- ing the selection of an apartment or home, methods of financing and furnishing the home attractively and suitably. household efficiency, home care of the sick, care of chil- dren, intelligent buying, family rc- lationships and cultivation of good social customs t'or gracious living, as well as the development of worthwhile leisure time activities. The major concern of such a course, taught by home economics teachers, would be to help thc jun- ior aud senior girls understand the significance of their responsibili- ties as family members-present and future- and to provide experi- ences in which democratic ideals would guide their day-by-day rela- tionships.

Phew, is it ever hot! What? You say it's only 50O? Well, the difference in temperature is only a column prop used to put you in thc mood. Imagine that you are in sunny Florida, viewing thc 1957 line of Catalina swim-wear. The show is just beginning. so sit. back, relax, and select your new swim suit from this stunning collection. Heading the parade we see thc popular cotton bathing suit in a pastel colored plaid. It also comes in different colors styled with "lit- tle boy legs," in a sheath style, and in the full skirted style as pictured above. The wrinkle shed material makes this suit very practical. The sheath style has a puckered back and rlainty lace trim on the bodice and straps. It has a matching sleeveless shirt. Next we see a dotted Swiss number with a fitted bodice and shirred adjustable pan- taloons with ruffles which extend from the hip to the back. Pastel colored stripes, crease resistant fab- ric, an elongated, fitted torso, and an all around pleated skirt over bloomers make the next suit unique. A striped suit of everglaze cotton with a fitted torso and pert all around pleats describe the last suit in the cotton category. The second group of suits are made of Lastex. Our first model wears a daring low back sheath with a metalic bordered halter and trim on the back. Next we see a solid color suit with an embroid- ered trim on the top ami an em- pire waistline. The embroidery is of r floral design in colors con- trasting with that of the suit. pictured above are purely figmenls ol own only to aid in the telling of the Something very different., but cute, is the suit pictured above in polka- dot with the "little boy leg." It has a contrasting waist nipping weskit with two buttons on the front. Next on the parade is a suit which is also made in orlon knit. This suit is a solid color and has a V-neck halter with a very low-cut back. Again wo see the Ullttle boy leg." This suit has solid color trim on the bodice and pockets to ac- centuate the vertical and horizon- tal stripes. A princess sheath with open slashes and contrasting piping on the sides describes this Lastex number. A pleated nylon bodice covered with jet head beads makes the next suit extremely striking. This year will be a big one for cotton knit. As we can see from the above pictures, stripes are very predominant in this field. Our first suit, is a multi-colored one with stripes of various sizes. The colors of red, gray, yellow, and brown make this a very lovely one. A middy style is carried out in the next suit, which is nmlti-colored, has black trim on the bra and the shorts. In nylon knit is a suit which is extremely plain and figure molding with a scoop neck and back. Well, there are some of the new Catalinas which will soon grace the beaches ot' the country. Hope you enjoyed the show! - If your disposition ts cool, calm and collected like the proverbial cucumber when those about you are losing their heads-maybe you rlon't understand the situation.

Ex- actly halt' of those questioned assigned a. definite time for each subject: 115 planned to spend a limited amoulit of time 011 each subject. Only 31 said they would not study a lesson u11til it was completed and 177 plan- ned to study lessons until completion.

SECONDS TO HOURS The first question on study time read exactly, "How many minutes school?", and the next pertained to minutes a week do you study i11 spent at home. It seems we have many eager mathematicians here who figured it. out ill exact minutes per week, but after n1ucl1 feverish di- vision it, was estimated the average was three hours a week in school and t'ive hours a week at home. The average minimum amount of time spent on any one subject is 15 minutes ami the average maximum on any one subject is IM hours. One bright lad spends one second as a mini- mum and two seconds as a niaxinmm. YOUNG LOVE AND OLD TELEPHONES The survey disclosed that the average student here belongs to two social clubs. Only 3-t revealed they didn't date: 110 dating 011 weekends, :IS during the week, and 36 only once in a while. 166 believe in going steady, leaving only 42 who do not. Amundsen pupils spend approxi- mately one hour a day 011 the telephone. The most drastic exception to this was a girl who said she spent one minute a day on the telephone as her conversations were brief and to the point.

The songsmiths followed the classic version fairly closely, deviating only by introducing more musical selections, some of which were "In My Own Little Corner," "Do I Love You?" and "Ten Minutes Ago." Each one of these songs is available in an album recorded by Columbia and called, most naturally, Cinder- ella. Rodgers and Hammerstein wrote songs that would be commercial enough to sell without the backing of the TV production. But then, they do seem to have a knack for creating beautiful melodies. The casting was excellently done with Jon Cypher as Prince Charming and Julie Andrews as Cinderella. While Mr. Cypher presented an excellent performance as the Prince, somehow I felt Julie Andrews was, at times, a not-too- convincing Cinderella. Her acting was credit- able, and her vocal addition to the production was certainly one of beauty. However somehow I felt, especially in scenes with glamorous Edith Adams, who played the fairy godmother, that Miss Andrews did not have the features and beauty to portray the part with suitable success. Perhaps this stems back to my child- hood days: I recall thinking of Cinderella as the most gorgeous creature on earth. Kaye Ballard, as Portia, Cindere1la's step- sister, appeared as the modern day commedi- enne and reminded me of Martha Raye. She had those same loud-mouth actions and the craziest laugh I have ever heard. Alice Ghost- ly's presentation as the other stepsister, Joyce, did not steal the audience's attention as much as Miss Ballard's. After enjoying each ot the Rodgers and Ham- merstein's productions I have seen, I can hardly wait to view their next work. I wonder what it will be? Doubtful Definitions HYPOCHONDRIAC-A person who, when you ask him how he is, tells you. GUILT COMPLEX-A fellow who could have married a rich girl, and did.

Are you one of those drivers who squeezes past the car in front and cuts sharply in front of him or practically knocks down an old lady just because you have the green light? IVas that you honking the horn because the fellow in front of you wasn't a block down the street by the time the light turned green? Or are you the safe and courteous driver who knows and obeys safety laws, and thinks about the next fellow once in awhile? Well, let's hope you belong to the latter group. Courteous drivers seem to be rare these days. But this doesn't mean we have to give up entirely. The streets around school are, to some stu- dents, freeways used for testing pick-ups, horns, ami for racing. But let's not forget that there are people living in this neighborhood. No one likes to wake up to the sound of honking horns or souped-up engines racing down the street, nor would you like to listen to this during the middle of a hard geometry test. Besides, what can be gained by it, a ticket, a smashed up car, or maybe even a few broken bones? Next time you are tempted to drag someone from a stoplight or honk at someone who made a mistake, THINK! i The Editor's Notebook Each one of us is an individual first. It is our work as an individual that counts. A school is made up of many distinct personalities, but it can be no better than the students who at- tend it. You are your school.

The Praying Tree by Omie Daniels One autumn day, I walked alone along a bar- ren city street. Not a soul was SPOII, until suddenly I came upon a tree, the only one for blocks and blocks of city pavement. It stood alone, the only touch of nature to be seen amidst the steel and concrete, its frame was small and frail, and although win- ter was close at hand, all its leaves were still attached, their golden hue beneath the late autumn sun shining like a halo. Its crown seemed reaching for the sky as does a stecple, every leaf tilting upward and searching the vast expanse of the blue above. Suddenly, a very different feeling came upon me, as if I had been guilty of treading on private, hal- lowed ground, and had unexpectedly come upon a silent, lone wershipper. liflitofx note: This fzvsuy was pilblislicll in the muyrlzinr' "I'0llll!l .-tmrrim Npeulrsn which is composed of stualwnf lrrilinyx from ull o1't'r Illc country.

You may be sure that no matter what the age, or who the woman is, she is almost certain to have at least a few things in her purse that. have not the slightest use. 'l'alte the high school girl for ex- ample. She carries enough equip- ment in her purse to perform plas- tic surgery! Lipsticks, eyeshadow, powder, pancake make-up, etc., etc., etc. Ot' course along with these necessary utensils there are a few other things such as several pencils, none of which have points sharp- ened, a fountain pen, with no ink, and a small book for taking notes tthis is filled to the hilt with old notes from your girl friend and a few poniesl. Naturally the bigger the purse is the less room you seem to have. Many times I have seen emerge from purses complete manicure sets, or the necessary implements with which to put one's hair up. You may wonder how women are able to find things they need in such a mess. XVell, actually they spend much of their time trying to t'igure out this very' thing. In fact l think they often wonder if some- one did not happen to mistake their various bags and peuches for the waste basket, and toss in a few extras on their way out.

He's quite an individual though. To begin with he was born at an early age and since birth has been very sensitive about unkind remarks concerning the growth between his ears. His life at Amundsen, upon entering in his sophomore year, has been very suc- cessful socially and scholastically speaking. He is president of the National Honor Society, chairman of Nominating connnittee, Key club member, Spanish club, sergeantfat- arms and member of both Boys' and Senior Choruses. It doesn't seem probable consid- ering the above, but Ed admits that he is very lazy.

In the next twenty years you will be the leading citizens of your re- spective communities. On March 14, four Alnundsen students learned how a good citizen is formed by at- tendillg the 16tll Annllal Vocation- al Conference for Chicago High Schools, whose thellle was "Parti- cipation ill Citizenship." John IfZl.IllbZtIllS represented the senior class, while Sue Galbraith, John Schultz, Illltl Joan Helnlkell represented the NZlll0llill Hollor So- ciety, the civies classes, alld the LOG, respectively. Talks were given by County Judge Otto Kernerg Miss Helen Fleming, of the Daily Nclesg R. Sargent Shriver, Jr., president of the Board of Education, alld Benjamin Willis, superintendent of schools.

In previous years, the trip had been to Washington, Annapolis, alld Williamsburg, Virginia, but this year, due to the wishes of the majority ot' the students, the trip will also include a tour of New York City. Leaving on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad on Saturday, April 27, the vacationers, which number over sixty, including five or six brave boys, will leave for the capitol. The next two days they will visit such ple hand tools. Each quarter they work on a different project. Soon they approach those murderous- looking machines and start to learn how to use them and what to use them for. WVith as few casualties as possible they work up to pat- tern making and turning.

They also spend fifty percent ot' their class time doing work for the school. The boys do minor repairs around the building and build props for the various departments If you ever break a leg just go around to the woodshop and they will fit you up just fine with a new one.

Found all around the calendar and across the weather map are the three above photographed styles. Meticulously tailored of a fine 50-50 blend of dacron and fine combed cotton, is Ann 0ste1nson's reversible azure rain repeller. A velvet collar and zipper pockets add a dash of sophistication. Two in one is the key- note of Ann's coat because in one simple movement it can be converted into :L colorful print. IVY LEAGUE- In true popular tradition, Ivy League appears again. This time in Alan Cohler's water repellent cap. His eye-catching, three-quarter-length white leather trench coat would be :L rain stopper anywhere. Fashionable and flattering, yet serving its purpose well is Aileen Pet- 8l'SOI1'S beige miracle fabric version. A bulky knit over-turned collar, plus tiny wooden buttons and slash pockets, make 11 unique formula. Yes, doubly lucky are Ann, Alan, and Aileen because they can wear their coats of distinction "Come Rain or Come Shine." But IL look at the latest weather report indicates a need for further rain apparel, and even these have gone modern-from convertible water-proof bonnet, to petite and unruffled, polka dottvd, or plaid parasols. COLORS- Color is the keynote in footwear fashions and the new boot styles in rubber, plastic, and leather are flooding the market. Ivy Leaguers have taken to wearing the new fur lined "snow boots" to classes and even on casual dates since the soft lining omits the need for shoes. Even though rainy days are usually dreary these lovely and exciting fashions can brighten up the outlook. There is still time to practice jump- ing, flexing the wrists, etc., for the girls who desire to try for :L cov- eted position on the squad. The two co-captains, Eileen Yamamoto and Jan Sterner, will judge tho girls on their cheerleading, poise, personality, scholarship, and 219 record. The girls have to be in their third or fourth year. No freshmen or sophomores are eli- gible. The five girls who will be re- placed after graduation are Eileen Yamamoto, Jan Sterner, Aileen Pe- tersen, Carol Peterson, and Sandy Erikson. Miss Heindl, who sponsors the cheering squad, guides the co- cuptains in their selection of new clulvrlonders. lhrar Mom, and Dad: 011655 what I 1104-fl most of all?

FIELD F ASCINATIONS 4 PageEight THE AMUNDSEN LOG Editor: KEN KNUTSO April 18, 195 J!!'.19.EE3. Well, readers, it has passed. Yes, between this publication and the last the most anticipated sporting event of the Board of Education's fiscal year has reached its climax, and has retired to enjoy sequest- ered glory in the pages of classic sport annuals and other miscel- laneous publications. The intramural All-Star Volley- ball game, featured in the main event unerring, nninissing, unmis- taking, undermining, undertakers of the girls gym department, coach- ed by Melvin Sturdly, pitting their combined talents against the power- laden male facult.y's All-Stars, coached by Wilson Boetticher. FACULTY ON PARADE Although the whole program was well produced, probably the most interesting feature was the pomp and ceremony with which the fac- ulty entered: via wagons, scooters, baby carriages, roller skates, hunt- ing elephants, touring cars. and yes, even on a stretcher, the last being necessary for one member, who was suffering from shock of seeing such a barbaric blood-thirsty crowd, which throughout the con- test constantly pelted the players with popcorn, soda-pop bottles, freshies, hallguard chairs, etc. The game was interesting from a spectator's view, with the strik- ing, cute. detailed uniforms of the men contrasting sharply with the disorganized, awkward, makeshift, outlandish costumes of the girls. YEA. MEN'S FACULTYI Unforunately the game was strongly one-sided froiu the begin- ning as the girls, very underhand- edly, would methodically set the ball up, anyone from 5 to 12 times, and spike it over the net into the confused outstretched hands of the men. Obviously the men were at a great disadvantage and I think there should be a rematch. Yea, Men's Faculty! This column was unbiased and free whatsoever from any discrep- ancies or prejudices.

'FL 0 ref, A l RED CLASHES WITH WHITE On Friday, April 26, at Winnemac Park, Amundseirs football fans will watch the exciting climax to the spring football practice, as they see the White team clash against the Red for the victory trophy in the an- nual Field Day event. An intra-squad routine will be followed, with each team having one captain. Coach Elmer Sahlin has already expressed his views about the teams, as having a lot of fight left in them from last season. He said, "They ought to show the crowd some outstanding offensive and defensive plays. ln recent years this football game has always been a close one, with either team winning by only a few points. This year it promises to fol- low right on this pattern, for the teams are evenly matched in height and weight. Last year Norm Samelson, Ray Kornatz and Tom Snider were chosen as tri-captains to reign over the team for the coming season. Unfortunately, Tim Snider broke his wrist and will not be able to participate in Friday's game. Already helping Mr. Sahlin whip the fellas into shape are several student coaches. Among them are Chuck Sklena, Bill Pearson, John Iverson and Bill Erickson, all grid- iron men of the past. Some of the returning lettermen who will be seen on the field are John Strasburger, Doug Hanneman, John Michaelwitz, Gary Korhonan, John Wisenburger, Fred Maier and Jim Hagen. Tickets will go on sale at the box office for 35c, a week before the game. But because of it being unfair to some of the student body, there will be no reserved seats. All fans who plan to attend will be excused from 7, 8 and 9 periods. During the half time the junior and senior track teams will show the fans some relay races. Also performing with their new routines will be the majorettes, headed by co-captains Gerray Glowen and Car- ol Ciesla. The gym office has already re- ceived a special bulletin from P. J. Hoff promising them a sunny spring day, so there is no reason why the entire student body cannot come out and support this annual spring event, SNOW REPLACES CINDERS IN TRACK INTRAMURALS The Amundsen track season of- ficially opened, April 11, with the annual Intramural track meet. at Winnemac Park. The first test of outside competition occurs this af- ternoon, April 18, against the two strong Catholic track teams of St. George and St. Benedict. To keep the cindermen perspiring, another triangular meet will be held on April 23, against our two neighbors. Lake View and Stelnmetz. The outlook for this season is the best in several years. Both squads have determination, spirit, as well as several returning let- termen. An encouraging number of boys turned out for track this year. For the seniors there are: Ken Rouen- berger, Dino Panos, John Furno. Evangelos Dalageorgas, Robert Dudle, James Hagen, Chuck Hoff- man, George Jorndt, Ralph Remp- ert, Rich Schreiber, Ken Strand, Curt Vevang, and Tom Wendt. In junior competition are: Bill Ballantine, Bruce Meyer, Lowell Stone, and Terry Uddenberg. The first glimpse of this year's track team will be given at half time on Field Day. Two relays will be featured. Kottra and Ferrara Voted Co-captains The Virs in the Variety show askde, "God Send the Rain." This plea was very effective. Chicago had more than its share of moist- ure since then. These "April showers." not the dance, and cold weather have been a plague to the baseball squad dur- ing this st-ason's practice games Because of this inclement weather' postponeinents have been frequent, However, in spite of the rain, the baseball team's spirits have not been dampened. The Amundsen nine started oft' April with a bang. They walloperl Senn's weak pitching t'or four runs in three innings while Amundst-n's chubby Pat Burns held the llulldogs scoreless, by mixing up his heuves. Familiar faces on the soggy dia- mond this year are: Skip Reinhart. catcher: Cordy Zorn, first base: Dick thovcrp lf'crrara, second base: Dale Schneider, short-stop: Rich t0leJ Papadakis, third base: Pete Kottra, left field: Bill Kotinas, cen- ter fieldg and John Kambanis, right field. The pitching duties will be shared by Paul Anhalt, Pat Burns, John Dent, Joe Siegnian, and Al- bert Agoudelis. Coach Fox is confident of a first division finish. The big problem worrying Mr. Fox is his pitching corps. Due to the loss by gradua- tion of John Walthouse, the team is lacking a dependable starter. The problem may be solved by alter- nating Pete Kottra from left field to the mound. The next game is on April 23 against Sullivan. l.et's make it a point. to attend this game. The ad- mission is free, so let's keep an Amundsen team winning by good support.

In- cluding siles, architcct's fees, building, and equipment, it costs about 394701100 to build an average twenty-room elementary school. The new schools being built have work counters and sinks in classrooms where necessary, mov- able seats, fluorescent lighting, and other aids. The most urgent building needs will be met first and new school buildings, additions, re- placements, and rehabilitations will be based on a careful study of school needs, population trends, ami existing facilities. The most care possible is being taken to see that our children get the best possible edu- cation while we spend as little as possible ot' the taxpaycr's money. It the bond issue is not passed at the time of the referendum more thousands of Chicago's boys and girls will have to go on part-time schooling, class size will have to be increased. gymnasium. auditorium and other social rooms will have to be used as makeshift classrooms. and more and more old buildings will reach the state ot obsolescence. All this will have the in- evitable result ol a less effective educational program for our children-the citizens of to- morrow. BASIC STEPS to adequate school buildings AD DITION of buildings MULTIPLICATION of seats SU BTRACT I O N of double sessions WE MUST APPROVE School Building Bonds VOTE Yes ON IUNE 3 AMOUNT ON PROPERTY The cost of the new bonds, if passed, will amount to approximately 35 cents per 51,000 ot' assessed valuation. or. less than the cost of two packs of cigarettes. This figure is based on the 1957 valuation. If the assessed valu- ations continue to increase in the coming years the figure would go down. Ili Ili 14 TAX FREE These bonds will be tax-free municipal bonds which carry a smaller rate of interest than other types of bonds. The Chicago Board of Education also has an improved credit rat- ing. and so the interest rates charged it. remain low despite general raises in interest through- out the nation, 111 Sk SO MILLION This bond issue will be for 50 million dollars and bear 3'? interest for the next twenty years. H4 IK 11 STATE AID? The State of Illinois adds no money at all to our school building fund and there is no indication that it will do so in the future. It is common practice throughout our nation for school districts to issue bonds. In that way they can provide schools immediately and pay for them over a period of years. :li if IF PRESENT FUNDS At the present time Chicago residents are paying less than 551.41 for S5100 of assessed valuation for schools, and this figure is less than almost all of the surrounding suburbs. Il! H4 Pls PREVIOUS BONDS The last of the bonds that were issued by previous building bond referendums will be re- deemed in 1957. creasing school population! The growth of population on thc fringes of thc city makes it necessary to have new schools in these areas. In addition to all this, the population increase has not even hit. the high schools yet. When this happens the need for school aid will increase still more. With more pupils come the need for more teachers. Chicago Teachers College is still the main source of our teachers and the crowded facilities there make improvement a must if we are to attract young people to a teaching career. Without the passage ol the School Bond Issue the present alarming state of our schools will become even worse. Your help is needed. Vote YESI Two Requirements Are Essential lfnlike other school districts in the State ot' Illinois, the Board of lflducation of the City of Chicago can sell bonds to raise money only after meeting two conditions. An act must pass the State Legislature that authorizes a public referendum on the bond issue, and then a majority of the votes cast in this referendum must be in favor ol' the propo- sition.

Editor: IOHN SCHULTZ May 23, 1957 Book Review The Etruscan Lars Turms. the immortal, awakened to spring and saw that the land had once again burst into bloom." These are the opening lines trom the new and thoroughly entertaining novel by the noted Finnish author, Mika Waltari, known for his wo lc.

Ill Lars' search for his prophesied homeland a11d his love for Ishtafra, there lies a l1eaut,it'ul story of a man's meeting with the Go1ls. Waltari's llSt' of the symbolic pebbles and using each character to augment the fascinat- ing Lars Turms tends to make even the most unreal parts ot' the hook see111 a little closer to 11at11re.

And lo an1l behold, Mr. Presley has been moved dow11 a notch on the ladder by lltllltl other than the son of Ozzie and lIarriet.t, Ricky Nelson. Actually Ricky sang "l'lll Walk- in"' on the Nelson's TV show as a joke. The fact tl1at he could actually sing really took the Dl'0tlllL't'l'S hy surprise. As l was goi11g over the titles of the top five, I couldn't help but wonder if the lyrics to Sllt'll songs as "Little Darling" will be re- lllt'lllllt'l't'tl :1n1l enjoyed by tllll' successors as we recall and enjoy such songs as "Stardust," and "l'm i11 the Mood for Love." In order not to "Knock tl1e Rock," l must admit that some songs tl1at tllll' grandparents enjoyed didn't ex- actly have Gershwin or Berlin lyrics. I dis- covered :1 t'ew such songs with somewhat doubt- ful titles such as, "You Fan Have Anything l've Got Except My NVit'e an1i l'll Make You a Present of lIer." or "Any Little Girl Who's a Nice Little Girl ls the Right Little Girl for Me." Ilelieve it or not these are actual titles to songs written i11 our I.fl'ZllltlD2ll't'lll'S day. Perhaps our lllllt'S aren't as bad as we think! From the Desk of Dr. Anderson Like almost every other school in the nation, Amundsen is growing in enrollment. In Sep- t.e1nber we will operate on a ten-period day. This means that freshmen and many sopho- mores will start later ami have a tenth period class, ending at. about 4 p.n1. Division for those on the early shift will be held before the first period. Division for those with a tenth period class will be held in the afternoon. Amundsen students are reminded that a nine- period day is the regulation day in Chicago high schools. This includes one or two stu1ly periods for almost every student each day. Because of Olll' growing enrollment, Amundsen students have been excused from study periods at the beginning or end of their programs as lo11g as they have maintained satisfactory grades. There will be no special programming to insure a shorter day: but for those who do either begin or end their day with a study period, we will continue to excuse them unless they abuse the privilege. Remember that an average of thirty minutes homework each night per major subject, is re- quired to 1lo your best in your classwork. Those students with a shorter day must neces- sarily do more school work at home than those who have study periods in school. A shorter 1lay really means devoting more time to home- work. C. K.

Amundsenites who participated in these cold weather frolics will not, however, forget the fun they have had over the past months. During the volleyball season, the various teams formed in the gym classes were going great guns. Eu- gaged in competitive games, they learned more about the fundamen- tals and tricks of the game. School Clever Coiffures Brighten Ensembles Fashion magazines and newspaper columns pay a great deal ot' atten- tion to clothing fashions, yet they sometimes overlook a very impora tant factor of good looks. One may have a beautiful wardrobe, but if her hair style is not up to date, the clothes will look as ordinary as housedresses. Hair styles come and go and in the past year the women of the world have seen hundreds of new and miusual ones. Here at Amand- sen alone there are always unique styles to be seen. Recently the "Freneh Twist" has become a very popular coiffure. llair drawn to the back of the head in a neat. bun becomes an exciting style when worn with simple tailored suits or dresses. Page Boys are also enjoy- ing the spotlight as are the charm- ing "Ivy League" styles. champions tof the feminine sexi were from .tlixs .llilrlrert IIeimlI's first period class of juniors and seniors, while Miss Donna Mc- Guire's team came in second. Each member received a trophy cup in recognition ot' her teamwork. The bowling league terminated another season with a party attend- ed by the members of all teams. lt was held in the last. part of May at the Bowling Lanes at Foster and Broadway, where the energetic athletes chalk up their weekly scores of 300. Pop corn, candy, and soft drinks, along with the long awaited presentation of awards. made it a perfect party in every sense of the word.

Editor: IOHN SCHULTZ May 23, 1957 Book Review The Etruscan Lars Turms, the immortal, awakened to spring a.1d saw that the land had once again burst into bloom." These are the opening lines lrom. the new and thoroughly entertaining novel by the noted Finnish author, Mika Waltari, known for his work. "The Egyptian." lntrout-ed on a note of the ethereal, the book offers a challenge to the reader's powers of ob- servation, for under its moving current ot' ex- citing sea clashes, the tales of the brawling, lusty men of the sea, and the possessive land owners. In Lars' search t'or his prophesied homeland and his love for lshtafra, there lies a beautiful story of a man's meeting with the Gods. Waltari's use of the symbolic pebbles and using each character to augment the fascinat- ing Lars Turms tends to make even the most unreal parts ot' the book seem a little closer to nature. One has hut. to read this book: a true mas- terpiece of literary style, and he will find him- self in the phantasmorgia of the past. The historical note upon which the book is writ- ten will interest those not particularly caring t'or stories involving the deeper emotions. For the more jovial moments, Tanakil offers the ligliter side ot' the story. This book provides a good Outlet for troll- CRITICS CORNER bled hours. 1, No l.'are- Jimmy Dorsey 2.

And lo and behold, Mr. Presley has been moved down a notch on the ladder by none other than the son ot' Ozzie and llarriett, Ricky Nelson. Actually Ricky sang "I'm Walk- in' " on the Nelson's TV show as a joke. The fact that he could actually sing really took the producers by surprise. As I was going over the titles of the top five, I t-ouldn't, help but wonder if the lyrics to such songs as "Little Darling" will be re- membered and enjoyed by our successors as we ret-all and enjoy such songs as "Stardust," and "Vin in the Mood for l,ove." In order not to "Knock the Rock," l must admit that some songs that our grandparents enjoyed didn't ex- actly have Gershwin or Berlin lyrics. I dis- covered :1 few such songs with somewhat doubt- ful titles sueh as, "You Can Have Anything l've Got Except My XVife and l'll Make You a Present ot' ller," or "Any Little Girl Wl1o's a Nice Little tlirl ls the ltight Little Girl for Me." llelieve it or not these are actual titles to songs written in our grandparent's day. Perhaps our tunes aren't as bad as we think! From the Desk of Dr. Anderson Like almost every other school in the nation, Amundsen is growing in enrollment. In Sep- tember we will operate on a ten-period day. This means that freshmen and many sopho- mores will start later and have a tenth period class, ending at about 4 p.m. Division for those on the early shift will be held before the first period. Division for those with a tenth period class will be held in the afternoon. Amundsen students are reminded that a nine- period day is the regulation day in Chicago high schools, This includes one or two study periods for almost every student each day. Because of our growing enrollment, Amundsen students have been excused from study periods at the beginning or end of their programs as long as they have maintained satisfactory grades. There will be no special programming to insure a shorter day: but for those who do either begin or end their day with a study period, we will continue to excuse them unless they abuse the privilege. Remember that an average of thirty minutes homework each night per major subject. is re- quired to do your best in your classwork. Those students with a shorter day must neces- sarily do more school work at home than those who have study periods in school. A shorter day really means devoting more time to home- work. C. K.

Amundsenites who participated in these cold weather frolics will not, however, forget the fun they have had over the past months. During the volleyball season, the various teams formed in the gym classes were going great guns. lin- gaged in competitive games, they learned more about the fundamen- tals and tricks of the game. School Clever Coiffures Brighten Ensembles Fashion magazines and newspaper columns pay a great deal of atten- tion to clothing fashions, yet they sometimes overlook a very impor- tant factor of good looks. One may have a beautiful wardrobe, but if her hair style is not up to date, the clothes will look as ordinary as housedresses. Hair styles come and go and in the past year the women of the world have seen hundreds of new and unusual ones. Here at Amund- sen alone there are always unique styles to be seen. Recently the "French Twist" has become a very popular coiffure. Hair drawn to the back of the head in a neat bun becomes an exciting style when worn with simple tailored suits or dresses. Page Boys are also enjoy- ing the spotlight as are the charm- ing "ivy League" styles. champions lot' the feminine sexi were from Miss M-ilrlrcal H!'l71!ll'.9 first period class of juniors and seniors, while Miss Donna Mc- Guiro's team came in second. Each member received a trophy cup in recognition of her teamwork. The bowling league terminated another season with a party attend- ed by the members ol' all teams. It was held in the last part of May at the Bowling Lanes at Foster and Broadway, whore the energetic athletes chalk up their weekly scores of 300. Pop corn, candy, and soft drinks, along with the long awaited presentation ot? awards, made it a perfect party in every sense of the word.

LAWRENCE AVENUE EVERYTHING PHOTOGRAPHIC HALLMARK CARDS Use Our Lay-away Plan Sullivan Paul Anhalt Blanks' league leader, 4-0 NEXVS FLASH-Sullivan game was played after the paper had gone to press. First division doesn't look as el:-se as it did at the beginning of the season. However, hopes are not dead t'or that upper erust finish. Antundsen's nine won the sea- s::n's opener against Von Steuben. 5-ll on superb shut-out pitching by Paul Anhalt. The following games were not as successful. Taft start- ed the Vikings' downfall by scoring a 5-1 victory. Lane also had little respect t'or Antundsen's nine, beat- ing them 10-2. Roosevelt was not to be outdone, and slid past Amundsen by a 4 to 3 margin. Future games inelurle contests against Sullivan on May 24, liake View on June 4, and Lane on June 6. The co-captains, Diek Ferra and Pete Kottra, have provided most of AllllllltlSt'll'S thrills. Dick has been a valuable asset on third base this year while Pete has been kept busy in left field, pitching and hitting homers. The pitching corps has also proved to he a pleasant sur- prise. Paul Anhalt, Pat Burns, and Pete Kottra have shown consider- able "stuff" and will win it' given some of the "breaks," The Vikings, despite three con- secutive losses, still have spirit and ability to win. With more school support at the eotning games, the losing story may he reversed. The ll'illll'S hitting has come in spurts. Dale Sc-hneder, shortstop: and Pete Kottra, left. fielder, are leading in the homer parade. Dick Ferrara and Bill Kotinas are the most, consistent hitters. Stu Kam- merman is the ever-faitht'ul man- ager. Batting Averages AB H PER.

Chubby Pot Burns hurled his way o springtime tame by constantly eeping the opposing batters in be- lderment. He reached his peak f fame by pitching a one-hitter gainst Waller. Dick l"crruru, although pint- ized, makes up for his height dis- idvantage with his glued-fingered love and potent bat.

Cute and lovable Bill Kotinas pends most of his time out on the iamond fattening up his batting verage. His untrampled spirit and eterminatlon will give him success n his desired professional career.

Amundsen started the baseball season oft' right this year by mak- ing few errors and scoring a win- ning game when she beat l+'oreman ti--l. The team can't always win as was the case when Sullivan scored eight to Amundsen's three, but when the first league game came up she was in there pitching and beat Von Steuben 5-0. The follow- ing two games were not as success- ful when Tatt and Lane beat Amnndsen by scoring 5-1 and 10-2, respectively. Other past games played here were against ltoosevelt, Senu and Scliurz, Sullivan, Lake Yiew, and Lane, and the game away was at Waller. Outstanding pitchers this year include l'aul Anhalt and co-captain Pete Kottra, used also in left field. Co-captain llichard I"errara is quite a third baseman this season" reports coach Fox. "All my players are outstanding in their individual positions, but a fast riser is recent member Dale Snider playing short stop." John Kambanis, tops in ev- ery sport he tries out for, is none the less active and valuable in base- ball as he plays the tough position of second baseman. The average baseball games this year are a balanced number of wins and losses, but as the paper goes to press it is too early in the season to be able to tell Amundsen's league standing. .lt?.19..Ef.5. Just in case your eyes are wan- dering and you find yourself read- ing this column, you can tell that graduation is near by the solemn and regrett'ul air in which this was composed and integrated. Yes, again that time arrives when the old faces plan to leave for fields of higher learning and hard- er work. Furthermore, every Tip- Off fan is aware that this class' graduating athlets will vacate ap- proximately 30 athletic scholar- ships to Viking U., which must be filled by some aspiring, promising. grammar schoolees- tplural for 8AJ. However, we're not going to wor- ry about them yet. Nope, we're go- ing to worry about our gruelling, grunting athletic grads who are soon to be released into the world of normal people. Foresee with me, if y0u're still reading, such dandies as Iverson, Sklena and Burns, greeting their white collar companions, not with the traditional handshake, but with forearms shivers. Also we see T. Walton, back stroking in the boil- ers at work. Dick Ferrara and Skip Reinhart cleaning gutters with baseball mitts on, and most unex- pectedly Ken Knutson and Gordy Zorn driving elevators attired in BB. shorts. So in any normal mind the ques- tion arises, 'Are our athletes ready t.o Graduate?" The answer is No. Let's keep our Varsity players in school.

Thanks for participating in so many A.H.S. activities, among which are Scholarship Club, Boys' Chorus, Music Festivals, and Honor Society. We wish you all the luck in the world as you enter Northwestern University, and we know you'll make a marvelous engineer. We shall always recall your interests too, collecting records, devouring Greek food, and going dancing with your ideal date. ELISE ANAGNOS Who is one of the most intelligent, industrious, and popular students at Amundsen? Elise Anagnos, of course. Besides being the vivacious veep of the senior class, Elise also served as president ot the Student Council, chairman of the Code of Conduct, chairman of the Prom Committee, M.C. of the Variety Show, and attained the honor of salutatorian. As a con- sumation of these services she received a citizenship award, a civic as- sembly award, and a Youth Foundation scholarship. Elise's fondest memory of Amundsen was the night when more than 100 kids showed up for her poster party. Playing the piano, listening to classical music, and water skiing are her favorite pastimes. Elise plans to attend Northwestern University in the fall, where she will work towards a master's degree. IOHN SCHULTZ Is there a mortician in the house? Yes, there is-John Schultz. It doesn't seem possible that such a friendly person as John should wish to be a mortician. but he does. Second on his list of prospective future careers is that of a politi- cian. John plans to attend Elm- hurst College for two years and then study law at the University of Chicago. John will always be remembered by his classmates as being a very sincere, unassuming and quiet who always places other's desires before his own. Several of his most impor- tant activities have been Sergeant- at-Arms, LOG page editor, Quill and Scroll, Honor Society, and band and orchestra. .VIOLETTE GEORGAS Introducing . . . a 5'9" brunette with a darling smile, striking ap- pearance, and great sense of humor, who has been impressing Wilson K. all semester with her accurate ac- counts of class happenings. Vi Georgas, secretary of the sen- lor class, also the scribe of Zeta S.G.C. and secretary of the Schol- arship club could, with this experi- ence, be well situated in the busi- ness world ton some exec's lap, no doubtjg however, elementary teach- ing is her vocational goal. Her fu- ture plans include two years at Navy, Pier followed by the comple- tion of her education at Bradley University. No shrinking violet, she has tak- en part in such activities as: Na- tional Honor Society, Log columnist, Quill and Scroll, FTA. Also rating high on her enjoyment! list are "any kind of music except Dixie," orange lipstick, pizza, and the le- gitimate theater. PETER KOTTRA Letters in baseball tco-captain of the teamb, basketball, track, and participation in intramurals cer- tainly qualify Pete Kottra for the title of "Boy Athlete." Maybe that's why he lists his secret ambition as becoming a member of the White Sox team. Those plans will have to wait, however, until Pete completes his schooling at Navy Pier. High on his date preference list is anyone who is happy and under 6'8". An ideal evening would be spent watching zombie pictures and then out to eat at the "Health Bar." Being a happy-go-lucky fellow, Pete hasn't many pet peeves, but the one thing that really "gets his dandcr up" is the poor attendance at the baseball games. He hates to look up from second base and see an empty bench. CAROL BROCATO Name-Carol "Va-Va Voom" Bro- cato. Description-5'5", brunette. Wow! No wonder she was elected "Girl Pin-up" in the senior mock elec- tions. Important data: Working to- wards her goal of fashion designer or commercial artist, she will at- tend the Art Institute and the University of Chicago. One of the most popular gals in the senior class she naturally has a long list of activities, among them F.T.A., Quill and Scroll, National Honor Society, LOG columnist, Variety and Fashion shows, Girls' Chorus, Choral contests, and Music Festi- vals. Important date: Andy, that fabu- lous football hero from Coe, evi- dently doesn't have that horrible trait which Carol lists as her pet pt-eve, knuckle cracking. Jazz, with Andy as an escort and lots of food, is her idea of an evening well spent. KEN KNUTSON "Day-O!" . . . Too piercing man? Well, that.'s simply a typical cry of AHS's most versatile senior boy- Ken Knutson. Ken is known for his influential powers at the door of Senior Hall as well as his partici- pation in the Honor Society. Senior Chorus, Quill and Scroll, and bas- ketball and track teams. This DOD- ular senior is a page editor on the LOG, and has recently been awarded second place in a city-wide adver- tising essay contest. lf Ken's future works out as planned, Augustana College will have one more Swede enrolled come fall, and his talent and interest in journalism will not go unrealized. All his friends. especially "the two Greek crumbs," will rank among the "Pres.'s" fondest mem- ories, and his friends will never forget Ken's terrific personality and wonderful sense of humor. ..-.4...L l..
