Mr. Blake, the founder, was followed by Mr. C. B. Newton. When Mr. Newton resigned in 1919, Mr. Johnson took over the leadership of the school for seven years. Mr. Eugene C. Alder joined Blake twelve years ago. Too much cannot be said for the improvements which Mr. Alder has made in Blake. He has increased the school's standing in Minneapolis. He has put Blake on a par with many of the ex cellent Eastern preparatory schools. The remarkable ability and foresight which he has shown in handling the affairs of the school have been evidenced in many ways. We may rightfully say therefore that Blake is fortunate to have such a Headmaster. 13 THE 1938 CALL O’ Pfln NOAH SYLVESTER FOSS Assistant Headmaster B.A., Dartmouth Senior Master of Upper School Latin OWEN EDWARD HORNE B.P.E., Springfield Athletic Director Administrator of Grounds and Buildings Biology, Geography, Hygiene CHARLES EDWARD LAMB B.A., M.A., Vermont Senior Master of Lower School Master of West House Latin HENRY ARTHUR WESTMARK University of Minnesota; Stout Manual Training 14 THE 1938 CALL 0 PAI) PAUL BOSANKO B.A., LL.B..

LUNDHOLM THE graduating class has been most efficiently guided ever since the Fourth Form when it chose Mr. Lundholm to be its class advisor. During this period spent in the Upper School many problems have arisen; and his quiet geniality has always produced the proper solutions. He has given both his time and his sincere interest in an effort to make our class successful both scholastically and also with regard to extra-curricular activities. His friendly assistance has become especially apparent in our senior year. For it was in this last chapter of our Blake life that we found our problems most vexing, and it was with a real sense of security that we sought Mr. Lundholm's advice on subjects of a scholastic nature, as well as on other matters. It is, therefore, with deep sincerity that we express our appreciation to Mr. Lundholm for his successful attempts to make our lives less complex, and our trip through Blake a most enjoyable one. 23 THE 1938 CULL 0’ PHI) 1 9 9 % % g f t ! v § $ ?

CLASS HISTORY TRACING the history of the Class of '38 back into its dim past, we discover its beginning back in 1926 when Lindley Burton, Theodore Tusler, and James Wyman entered Miss McDonald's first grade class at Junior Blake. Two years later the charter members were joined by Theodore Carter and Telford Thompson. Malcolm Moore joined the class in the fourth grade. When the class assembled for its last year at the Junior School, it was found that Thomas Swanson and Sewall Jones had entered Blake. Then came the momentous jump to the Senior School where, after the class had recovered from the bewildering first days, it found added to its number John Brooks and Frank Donaldson. Many of the class were members of the formidable C'' football team of '31. Many have false ideas as to the origin of Jim Wyman's nickname of Smokey, but it was his sensational fast ball as C team pitcher that won for him this title. During the following two years many won B team letters. It was during the third form year that Frank Donaldson became our first contributor to the Torch. This same year Alan Anderson and Monty Wells joined the class. Then for two years the contributions of the class to the “A team made this aggregation invincible. Leaving the Lower School with Lindley Burton's name on the scholarship plaque, we became conscious of our importance, for as upper schoolers we helped run Blake through our council member, Frank Donaldson. Two Jameses, 24 THE 1938 CALL O’ PRI1 Dorsey and orator Hannah, entered the class that year. In the same year. Frank Donaldson won a position on the debating team which he maintained for four years. Our Fifth Form year was featured by the entrance of Jock Thompson, Bob Fisher, and Laurence Lucker, and by the winning of the first varsity letter in a major sport by Monty Wells, who was catcher for the baseball team. During this year Ted Carter was our representative on the Council, and James Hannah joined the debating team. It was during our junior year that we participated in many of the school's activities and placed many on the athletic teams. Burton, Donaldson, Anderson, Carter, and Hannah were consistent honor students, while Brooks and Donaldson were our Council members. The first all-junior debating team in the history of the school consisted of Anderson, Carter, Donaldson, and Hannah, who won the debater's cup. Parts in the operetta were had by Donaldson and Fisher, and Burton, Carter, Fisher. Moore, and Wyman helped make the plays a success. Donaldson, Carter, Hannah, and Anderson contributed to the Torch. Football letters were won by Jock and Sandy Thompson. Brooks, Fisher, and Wells. Members of the swimming team were Fisher, Sandy Thompson, Lucker, and Moore, while Wells. Wyman, lock and Jeep (one of his countless nicknames) Thompson, and Brooks made hockey letters. Moore and Swanson played for the golf team, and Jock and Sandy Thompson, Brooks, and Wells, who pitched every game, were baseball letter winners. Then came our senior year and an even greater participation in school activities. Our class was mediocre until our final two years, but we point with pride to the success of the plays, the concert, and the undefeated hockey and football teams. And so the Class of '38 passes on, hoping that its achievements have added a memorable chapter to the history of Blake School. 25 THE 1938 CULL O’ PAI) ALAN ROBERT ANDERSON Cum Laud© Entered Blake 1933 Iggy, Andy Harvard Now let's take things in their proper order. ONE of the few real scholars in the class, Andy has always been the envy of the trig class with his invariably perfect papers. Also a Hodgkinson prodigy, Iggy's science marks are slumping at 90. As a sophomore, Andy was considered an outstanding gridiron prospect, until an untimely injury halted his career. On the diamond, our hero was a candidate for the pitcher's berth, but his uncanny ability to deal with Hopkins urchins has lead him to the managerial side of the game. The name Iggy, it should be noted here, was the product of the maitre de francais' fertile brain, and comes from a Latin original. A debater of no mean ability, Alan has convinced even Jones that the bicameral system of legislation is the only thing. When it comes to the dance, the senior cave is never complete without our Andy demonstrating the latest innovations in the limp. During the lower school lunch period Andy's greatest problem is to find the shortest distance between Mr. Lamb's elbow and the dessert rack—without a head-on collision with the Jew en route. Andy is another who has chosen Harvard. 26 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PAR JOHN LAWLER BROOKS Entered Blake 1931 Johnny Dartmouth There are smiles that make you happy . . ONE of the best, as headboys go. John has been with us since the days of Death Valley. In fact, the Class of '38 would not be the same without those revolutionary locks and that perpetual grin. One of our prize athletes, Johnny has been a star at everything from shot putting to catching a streetcar. This year John captained the hockey team and proved to one and all that Dartmouth's defense worries are over. Also a fighting tackle on Mike Horne's football team, John was an important factor in the team's impressive record. In the spring our hero's first love is baseball, where he patrols the outer gardens. However, the Glenn Goug-ers have been known to call for help in mid-season, and our John is always ready. In his junior year he played a strong number two in a match or so, and no one can predict what the coming season holds for Leaper. A member of the Blake Union, John is among the honored few who sing the Alma Mater every other Friday night at 8:30. Johnny is following brother Bob to the green mountain country, and this June Blake will see the last of one of her greatest athletes and best all-around fellows. 27 THE 1938 CALL 0’ Pflfl LINDLEY JAMES BURTON Cum Lauae Entered Blake 1926 Boo Harvard Whose little body lodged a mighty mind. HEREIN lies the story of our official prodigy, for Boo has amazed boys and masters alike with his scholastic ability since those shady days at the Junior School. Especially in the field of mathematics does Lindley shine, and we estimate that he set a new record in Algebra V (called by some the most difficult course in the school). He missed approximately five out of the fourteen hundred problems assigned, not to mention his perfect score on the Board. In the field of athletics, Boo has also an excellent record. He has played for three years on the tennis team, finishing up this year as captain. For two years, many an opposing forward has cursed Lindley under his breath as Boo snared a pass and headed back up the ice. In fact, Boo has not limited himself to hockey, for he claims that it is merely a matter of days until he goes off the Bush Lake ski-jump. It is not at all unusual to see that Burton L. has finished high up in the local ski races. Like his brother Gale, Lindley is headed for Harvard. With his unusual scholastic ability and fine spirit, he should go far at Cambridge. 28 THE 1938 CALL O’ PAfl THEODORE FOQUE CARTER Cum Laudo Entered Blake 1928 ‘’Cuth Williams “Nowher so besy a man as he ther n'as And yet he seemed besier than he was. WITHOUT doubt the greatest school power in the Class of '38, Ted has amazed the inmates of the senior sanctorum with his infinite list of school activities. In fact, at one time last fall, the Cub was so occupied with extra-curricular matters that he could not find even one spare moment in which to attend classes. The Editor-in-Chief of the publications, Cuth has known true misery in trying to collect last-minute articles for the Torch. No one is more aware of the school editor's elusiveness at the time of the deadline. And at times Ted has been forced to use physical terrorism in his dealings with the sports editor. For four years Cuth has starred in the plays, finishing up as president of the Dramatic Association. Who can forget the hectic two weeks preceding the plays when Cubby was almost carrying a telephone in his overcoat pocket. One of the most outstanding debaters ever to attend Blake, Ted, aided by Andy's practical rule of the question, has made an enviable record during his two years on the squad. Ted is headed for Williams, and Blake will be sad indeed to lose such an all-around fellow. 29 CARTER DeLAITTRE Entered Blake 1937 (Graduated from West in 1937) “Carter” Dartmouth “I'm forever blowing bubbles.” ONE of the most valuable additions that was ever made to our class came this year in the person of Carter DeLaittre. Having graduated from West, Carter felt that he needed the polish of a Blake man. That he has attained it, none can deny. The record which he has made for himself in this one year is surprising. In the fall, he was perhaps the biggest reason for our string of gridiron successes, because of his tremendous driving power. His great popularity brought him an immediate election to the Union. This winter he kept right up with this fine athletic record by winning another letter —this time in hockey. In this sport he proved to be the Waterloo of all those who tried to get past him in his defense position. Carter also did well in the scholastic end of Blake, and his good nature made him the friend of every senior—although from time to time he threatened destruction when the rythym in his soul got the better of him, causing him to truck his some 180 pounds around the senior room with much abandon. After a year's delay, Carter is going on to the college of his choice Dartmouth. 30 THE 1938 CALL O’ PRI) JOHN HOPKINS DENMAN Entered Blake 1937 Jack” Yale A lion among the ladies is a dreadful thing. WHEN the words Den-man boy-eh“ echo down the halls, and a towering figure increases the pace of his stealthy tread, you can be sure that a prominent member of the Des Moines Denmans” is cursing the fact that Wyman was ever bom. A newcomer to the class of '38, Jack's poise and sophistication have on numerous occasions made the more adolescent members of the class feel about one-half their age and height. The senior cave would not seem right, if, as we entered for % the pre-chapel orgie, the crackerjack” were not sitting in his characteristic pose by the radio, swaying to the latest innovations in the swing realm, while Stevenson's essays reposed gently in his free hand. The find” of the golf team, Jack emerged from the proverbial bushel basket to clinch the first position (Swanson and Moore to the contrary notwithstanding). All joking, aside, however, Jack has fitted exceptionally well into the class of '38 and has made many friends. He plans to trek to New Haven, and Old Eli will be lucky indeed, to have such a son. 31 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PUR FRANK ARTHUR DONALDSON, JR. Cum Laud© Entered Blake 1931 Frank Harvard “I am Sir Oracle, and when I ope my lips let no dogs bark. ALTHOUGH Frank would rather be called the “Amateur Casanova, it is really more fitting to name him the Little Caesar, since he is probably in more organizations than any other man in the class. He has been for several years a member of the Glee Club, the Debating Team, the Dramatic Association, the Student Council, and the Publications Board. He was elected to the Union at the end of his Fifth Form year, which speaks well for the popularity which Frank enjoys at Blake. Frank is also a student of no mean ability, and this year his crowning achievement occurred when he twice beat the previously unbeaten Burton. The athletic field has also seen Frank, and he all but made his letter in varsity football this year. For an indication of his ability as business manager of the Publications, you need merely glance in the back of this book. Frank is very modest about all of this, but is particularly proud of his abilities in his smoothest thing on wheels. Frank has decided to go to Havahd next fall. May his career there be as outstanding as the impressive one that he has made here at Blake. 32 THE 1938 CALL O’ PM JAMES EMMET DORSEY. JR. Entered Blake 1934 Dorse Harvard Nature in the raw is seldom mild. OUR EMMET, the pride of the French department, has been the uplifting element of the class ever since it was blessed by his advent in the Fourth Form. A grammarian of wide renown, Jim has caused Clevo much inward (and outward) satisfaction with his everpresent, As I do. As a charter member of the Terrible Three ' the Stoic has dealt out much punishment to his fellow classmates in the too-numerous skirmishes in the senior cave. All kidding aside, however, Jim is one of the best-liked members of the Class of '38. To list his accomplishments would be difficult, but he is a member of the Union and, in his more peaceful moments, he operates rather successfully in the capacity of circulation manager for the Torch. If questioned in regard to athletics, Jim will point with pride to the hockey team, which he. as manager, has piloted through two very successful seasons. He has devotedly gone out for football for two seasons now, being a stalwart on the Lions. At the present time Jim plans on entering Harvard. There is no doubt that he will win as many friends there as he has here at Blake. 33 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PM ROBERT ELLIS FISHER Entered Blake 1935 Fish Dartmouth . . to trip the light fantastic toe . . BOB has practically become synonymous with the phrase tripping the light fantastic ' for because of his unparalleled appreciation for the more refined types of swing, his ability at the dance is likewise without equal in the class. However, his achievements are more widespread, for since his advent to the class in the Fifth Form, he has won himself a place as center on the football team, the presidency of the Glee Club, and the honor of being one of the best actors to tread the footboards at Blake. In addition to all this, he is one of the biggest assets of the swimming team, and this year he was head waiter for the Upper School. Regardless of the curse which Mr. Bitt throws on his dancing, Bob has progressed by leaps and bounds in this field, so that he is practically as well known for this, as he is for being an outstanding musician. In his brief three years at Blake, Bob has caught the spirit of the school and has become one of the most well-rounded members of the class of '38. Bob is one of those who have chosen Dartmouth. May his days in Hanover be as successful as here at Blake. 34 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PAD JAMES BLAIN HANNAH Cum Laudo Entered Blake 1934 'Art'' Harvard Ours is a sacred love. THROUGHOUT Jim's Blake School career he has impressed his classmates with his oratorical talent. Memorable indeed was the day when the student body accorded Jim the greatest ovation that a chapel speaker has ever received. Jim's oratorical achievements include such awards as the Strieker Debating Cup, the Williams Theme Prize, and the Thorpe Cup. In addition to all this, Art was a member of Blake's only all-junior debate team. He was recently elected to the Union, he is a member of the Publications Board, and functions under the title of managing editor, and last, but not least, Jim took part in the plays last fall. Another victim of the limp, Jim has only lately been improving the latest steps with the partner of his choice. Jim’s name appears consistently on the honor roll, and in his Junior year he amazed us all by leading the class on the French III College Board, with two years less French than the rest. Jim plans to study law, and it is our guess that he will go a long way in this field. When Harvard receives Jim next year, Blake will have lost a great orator and a genial fellow. 35 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PM) EDMUND SEWALL JONES Entered Blake 1930 S. J. Williams Silence is sweeter than speech.'' ONE of the elders of the class, Sewall has been in evidence now since the Fifth Grade. However, this period had one break in it, because last year Sewall saw the need of quitting the halls of Blake in favor of a few months in the wide open spaces, namely Missoula, Montana. With this exception, however, the presence of this member in the ranks of the class has been an enjoyable one, for although he is not spectacular, Sewall has done very well in his own quiet way. As a scholar of no small ability, he has undertaken the unthinkable in his senior year by taking two of Mr. Bitt's history courses, and one right after the other in the day's schedule too. In addition to this accomplishment, S. J. is a member of the Glee Club, and one of the more faithful members of the Publications Board, for which he has written much in his capacity as a reporter. Fencing found one of its most rabid enthusiasts in “Ed,'' for whenever you hear the click of the foils you may be sure that one of the combatants is our Sewall. He is one of the select few who have chosen Williams and is sure to win many friends there. 36 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PRI) LAURENCE HENRY LUCKER. JR. Entered Blake 1925 Luck Yale “From head to foot he is all mirth. ALSO one of the charter members of the class. Pants has been with us since the days of Miss McDonald. As the Southern Sage's official secretary, Lucker can always be counted for at least one mirthful sally from the usual dignity of the eighth period orgie. In fact, the pride of the Lucker clan has held the entire class plus the venerable professor in stitches while he remonstrated on the versatility of the little town of Os-tend. Larry had it in various places located between California and Budapest. Pants has been a waiter these many years, and this year he attempts to curb the Jeep's Gargantuan demands for nourishment in his capacity as head waiter of the Lower School. A diver on Johnny Hartman's swimming team, Laurence has proven himself one of the hardest workers on the squad. In the spring Luck patrols the outer gardens for the second team. Pants was in the plays this year and gave an excellent portrayal of a gruff soldier in Allison's Lad. This future engineer is heading for the Yale Sheffield School, and we wish him the best of luck. 37 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PAR MAURICE MALCOLM MOORE Entered Blake 1929 Mai Williams Had I loved less, I would be happier now. HAVING entered the class in the fourth grade at Junior Blake, Male may well be called a '38 man of long standing. During the long trek through Blake's noble halls, he has gathered the reputation of being a swimmer of note, a golfer of long standing, and a lion at Blake's more formal gatherings. Mai has starred with the Bosanko bathers this last year, and the latest reports from the links at Minikahda seem to indicate that the golf team will have a difficult hole to plug next spring. For Mai has been the playing manager of the team this year. He has been the envy of all the class with his English themes that are barely over a page in length. The average of words per line is unbelievable, and although some consider the figure false, he is able to prove it by higher math. While the paradox of the senior ring (which at present seems to be a little unstable) is a bit perplexing, it promises to clear up shortly. Mai is the fourth member of the class who has chosen Williams. He intends to follow parental footsteps into the field of law, and we wish him a career as fine as this at Blake. THE 1938 CALL 0’ Pfln THOMAS CARLTON SWANSON Entered Blake 1930 ‘Tom Dartmouth Never morning wore to evening, but some heart did break. NONE can deny that Tom is about the smoothest man in the Class of '38. In his relations with the fairer sex, Tommy uses that winning smile and super personality to full advantage, and he gets results! (We can produce letters postmarked Greenway, Virginia, to prove it!) A charter member of the Vergil for Tomorrow Club, Tommy has often saved the Jeep from a merciless slaughter at the hands of our assistant headmaster. Last fall this genial redhead managed the football team, and his ability to make Beckley do everything from tearing tape to running to Hopkins for a package of chewing gum has amazed all of us (including Beckley). This winter Tom joined the hockey squad, and the subtle movements of his restless stick sent many an opponent crashing to the ice. In the spring he captains the Glenn Gougers, commonly called the golf team. He also donned the greasepaint this year for the plays. Tom is one of the members of the Class of '38 who can see no college but Dartmouth. It will be with sincere regret that we watch that huge Buick roar down the driveway for the last time 39 THE 1938 CULL O’ Pflfl ALEXANDER MacKENZIE THOMPSON. JR. Entered Blake 1936 Sandy” Yale I'd rather hug a pigskin than any girl I know.” ONE of the more recent additions to the class of '38, Sandy soon caught the Blake spirit. His ability in football was evidenced by his election to the captaincy this year. In spite of a broken ankle, Sandy's grit and determination were an inspiration to the whole team. The record which was made this year speaks well enough for his example for the squad. In swimming. Pinkie has made an enviable record as a diver. He stands practically undefeated in all the meets in which he has taken part. In the spring the Box” is the stellar occupant of the hot comer. Sandy is a member of the Union, and operated this year as a stagehand for the plays. Whenever the Terrible Three are operating in the senior room, you can be sure that Sand-box is there. It is truly a terrifying experience to open the door only to be caught by a flying object covered with short hair, which has leaped from the couch or the bookcase. All kidding aside, however, Sandy has been a real addition to the class, and it will be with sincere regret that we watch Sandy leave the school for the last time. 40 THE 1938 CULL O’ PM) JOHN THOMPSON. JR. Entered Blake 1935 Jock Yale His limbs were cast in meetest mold For manly sports and contests bold. JOCK is one of the most versatile members of the Class of '38, and he claims that his final triumph was his admission into the Choir. He is a member of the Union, and is secretary of the Athletic Association. Since he entered Blake in 1935, Jock has excelled in all athletics in which he has taken part. The high esteem in which he is held by all his fellow athletes is well illustrated by the fact that he was elected to the captaincy of the Whites this year. When and if an all-time Blake football team is chosen, the name J. Thompson will certainly fill the space opposite left end, for he has been one of the most outstanding players, both offensively and defensively, during the last two years. The leading scorer and center on the first line last year, Jock is keeping up his fine work in hockey again this year. The Wells-Thompson battery bids fair to repeat even more successfully this season. Jock is president of the class, and we might say the president of the Terrible Three Jock's name has appeared consistently on the honor roll, and he will undoubtedly bring honor to Eli in much the same manner as he has to Blake. 41 THE 1938 CALL 0’ MHNBHIMMBiMi pnn TELFORD KING THOMPSON. JR. Entered Blake 1928 leep'' Minnesota The devil hath power to assume a pleasing shape. IT is a recognized fact that our Telford has more nicknames than Heinz has varieties. Ever since Mr. Bosanko slipped and referred to Punky as the Jeep (a natural inclination because of Abe's blatant shirt and comic-strip bow tie), the boys have never let up for even a minute, and hence our hero must answer automatically to any name from Trout to Chester. In the field of athletics, Jeff has done himself proud. Many an opposing end has gasped for a time out as our hero threw an effective block from his halfback position. In his two years on the team, Tel has made a name for himself as a hard and dependable worker. And on the ice, Pedro's wicked shot has kept many a goalie from attaining the desired shut-out. Not to mention two years on the golf squad. Jeep has served two years with the baseball team. In his senior year, Chester took part in the plays and thrilled many a second former with his sinister portrayal of The Other One. Tel seems quite undecided about this college question, but it is our guess that he will end up at Minnesota. Don't forget to look at your Latin, Jeeperl 42 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PAfl A THEODORE HENRY TUSLER Entered Blake 1926; 1936 Ted M. I. T. Men like bullets go farther when they are smooth. A recent addition to the Class of '38, Ted has helped form the nucleus of two new sports. He soon proved himself to be the best shot in the school and a rifle authority of no mean ability. Not satisfied with the mastery of only one weapon, Ted worked hard to rejuvenate the fencing class which had been forgotten for several years. Reports seem to indicate that he is the captain of this newly formed group. Scholastically speaking, Ted points with pride to his record in the eighth grade, for he ranked first in his class (we must add in all fairness to all other contestants that it was a two-way tie for first place in a class of three). Ted and his merry Oldsmobile hung up one record that stands unchallenged in the senior class, and that was his Los Angeles to Minneapolis hop in precisely forty-eight hours. Into Blake social centers Ted has introduced his revolutionary style, which has well nigh dumbfounded many a mill city lassie. In choosing his college, Ted has drawn himself farther away from his California paradise. At any rate he is headed for M. I. T., and may his career there be a successful one. 43 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PAf) i MAURICE LAMONT WELLS Entered Blake 1933 Monty Northwestern “Whistle and she'll come to you. IT is a recognized fact that few members of the Class of '38 have a more minute knowledge of Long Lake geography than our Monty. However, Swanson's constant reminder of THAT New Year's Eve has long been a sore spot and even a whisper about the same issue will bring an immediate and convincing demonstration of the flying mare and the airplane spin. Next year, Monty plans to compete with the famous Bill DeCor-revont or the left half position at Northwestern. In hockey, too, the Stace has shone these many years. One of the high scorers, both this year and last, he has teamed with Jock Thompson to make one of the most feared scoring combinations in the Twin Cities. However, it is in the National Pastime that our hero really shines. Remindful of Iron Man Cy Young. Monty has accomplished a feat which we claim is unique in the entire history of the school. For Monty pitched every inning of every game throughout the entire season and won all but two of them. Monty plans to spend the next few years in Evanston, and we are sorry to say that this popular mite is the last of the Wellses. 44 THE 1938 CALL O’ PHI) JAMES THOMAS WYMAN Entered Blake 1926 Jim Yale I never dare to speak as funny as I can. AND now we come to one of the charter members of the Class of '38, for Jim entered Blake back in the dim days of the Junior School. He has come down through the years with the reputation of being the class sports authority, a natural actor, and invincible on the squash courts. As a junior Jim was a promising football back, a stellar hockey forward, and an able ball player. However, an untimely knee injury kept him off the athletic field this year. It is a difficult task to record Jim's accomplishments of the last year. He was slated for an excellent part in the plays, but this same injury interfered with what promised to be the best characterization of the evening. Jim has been the guiding influence of the Press Club this year. His hardest job was to convince the newspapers of Blake's fourth 33 to 0 victory. but in spite of this his literary ability stands unequalled in the senior class. Jim's popularity is evidenced by the fact that he was recently elected to the Union. That he will eventually emerge victorious in senior room squash, Jim feels confident, but until that time he will continue on the diamond. At present, Jim is planning to join the Yale delegation, and Ely is sure to find him a worthy son. 45 I E 46 Library THE 1938 COLL O’ PIN Back row: Hill G.. Dayton W.. Piccard J., Colman.

Clark, Callahan SIXTH FORM ALTHOUGH our class was not strengthened by any new members this year, it has done its share by taking part in the many school activities. In our first class meeting the following officers were elected: Drake, president; Waters, vice-president; and Clark, treasurer. Mr. Cleveland was elected class advisor. This year our class has ranked higher scholastically than it has in previous years. Colman, Martin, Clark, and Waters were consistently on the honor roll. Many of our members were extremely active in debating, dramatics. Glee Club, and on the Publications Board. Exceptionally versatile in these fields were Clark, Colman, Beckley, Eaton, Waters, Martin, and Hill. Athletically our class has not been particularly outstanding, but Drake, Martin, and McDonald won their letters in varsity football. Eaton, Drake, McDonald, Clark, and Dayton were on the swimming team, while Kingman, Martin, and Waters were on the hockey team. Doubtless our class will be well represented in spring activities. Throughout the year we have been under the capable guidance of Mr. Cleveland, and we wish to take this opportunity to express our gratitude for the helpful assistance rendered by him.

At the first class meeting the following officers were elected: Sheldon, president; Dorsey, vice-president; Flannery, secretary and treasurer. The previous spring Mokros had been elected to represent the class for a second term on the Student Council. For the third successive year the form chose Mr. Savage as its advisor. The Fifth Form has had a high scholastic average all year, often leading the school with its monthly average. Duff has consistently been high man for the school, as well as the form, and others usually on the honor role were: DeForest Spencer, Mokros, Flannery, Neils, and Sheldon. In football Bonner, Dorsey, McCarthy, Mokros, and Neils were varsity letter-men, and Burton, Duff, and John Spencer won A team letters. Playing hockey in the winter term were Bonner, Burton, Dorsey, Duff, Dunn, Hancock, Hanson, LaBounta, McCarthy, McCartney, Mokros, and John Spencer. Dayton and Flannery were assistant managers of the hockey team. Hemenway represented the Fifth Form on the swimming squad. The Fifth Form is especially indebted to its class advisor Mr. Savage, for the time, consideration, and help he has given us.

FOURTH FORM AT the beginning of the year our class was found to be one of the largest in the school. Although a few members were missing, a large number of new boys had joined. They were Hield, Johnson, Hayes, DeLaittre, Collinson, Brewer, Perry, Williams, Shearer, and Whittaker. At our first class meeting we elected the class officers. Alvin Gluek was elected president; Drake, vice-president; and Strong, secretary and treasurer. Mr. Strickland was chosen class advisor. In football Drake won his letter on the varsity team. Hield, Stillman. Shearer, Hefflefinger, Gluek, Moore, and Strong won letters on the A team, while Childs, Preus, and Simmons were rewarded for service on the B team. During the winter Drake, Cowin, Williams, and Strong were on the swimming squad. Baston and Shearer played on the hockey team. Bowen, Perry, Maul, Ervin, Maxeiner, and Olin were members of the choir.

They were Cameron, Collinson, Dobson, Donaldson, Hield, Nunan, Spencer, Wheeler, Wingate, and Wrench. At the middle of the winter term we welcomed Ossanna to our ranks. At the first class meeting we elected Mark Heffelfinger president; Gale, vice-president; and Lyman, secretary and treasurer. Carter, Spencer and Lyman led the class scholastically. We are the second largest class in the school and are always above average in the class rankings. In the fall most of our class were scattered on the A and B teams, while a few were on the C team. The others played tennis. In the winter term the majority of our class played hockey, some played basketball, and a few worked with Mr. Potts in the gym. At the present time a large number of the third form are playing baseball. The rest are found on the tennis courts or playing softball Because of our marked improvement this year, we wish to take this opportunity to thank Mike Horn, our class advisor, for his invaluable assistance throughout the year.

SECOND FORM THIS fall Winslow Bennett and Jack Williams joined us in the Second Form making the number of boys in our class twenty-one. At our first class meeting David Owen was elected president; John Gleuk, vice-president; and George Barbour, secretary and treasurer. We were represented on all three co-efficient football teams. Most of us went out for hockey this winter under Mr. Savage, playing in several games with S. P. A. The others skied under the leadership of Mr. Gale. This spring we are trying out for the three co-efficient baseball teams. Teddy Lyman and David Bull lead the form in scholarship, Lyman having been on the first honor roll every month. We have not yet come near to winning the scholarship plaque but hope we will before the end of the year. In public speaking under Miss Nunan we have been giving poems and anecdotes. We wish to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Glenn, our class advisor, for the splendid help he has so willingly given us throughout the year.

The class elections were held and the First Form elected Raines as president; DeVries, vice-president; and Hutchinson, treasurer. Mr. Bittinger is our class adviser. Most of the first form played football. A few went out for tennis. There were about six football lettermen. Some of us played hockey, while others tried skiing. The stars in hockey were King and Ritz. On the warm days when the hockey rinks were too wet to play on, we played indoor baseball or basketball in the fieldhouse. Mr. Horne directs the baseball games, while basketball is played under the direction of Mr. Conley. It looks as though most of the First Form will play baseball. A few may try tennis. The first form so far has won the plaque once. But we are getting along better this month and we hope to win it again. Mr. Bittinger, as our class adviser, has helped us greatly. We all wish to extend our sincere thanks to him for all he has done for us.

More than ever the Council has performed valuable service to Mr. Alder, the faculty, and the rest of the school whom it represents. There has been no spectacular legislation this year. Several minor changes in the conduct of the school's affairs have been brought about. They are all probationary as yet but they seem most advisable to the council. The management of the football banquet has been shifted to the football manager and several seniors who are not lettermen. Call O Pan subscriptions are to be put on the bill after being signed for. This plan will probably be continued to the Torch. A new method of electing the head-boy has been brought about. The student body now votes directly for the head-boy and for the other senior member of the council. The success of the dances and the other functions which are managed by the Council bespeak the value of this body to the school during the past year. Though the students fail to appreciate the work of the Council, its actual worth cannot be seriously doubted. 59 THE 1938 CALL 0’ Pfln Back row: Thompson J., Dorsey J., Thompson A., Wyman.

Wells, Swanson UNION THE Blake Union continued to function this year as it always has, and with considerable success. For it is felt that it adhered closely to its aims, which are to give its members practice in public speaking and parliamentary procedure, and to provide opportunity for social fellowship. Meetings were held, insofar as it was possible, on alternate Friday nights at six o'clock. After dinner it is the custom to adjourn to the library for the formal meeting. New and old business is first considered; and then a prepared speech is given by a chosen member. An impromptu speaker is selected by lot, and after he has spoken, the faculty guest for the evening, if there is one, gives his address. An informal session winds up the program. To the Fifth Former who excelled in the annual public speaking contest sponsored by the Union, the Union Medal was given in the customary manner. And at one of the final meetings the seniors voiced their frank and constructive criticisms of the school through the medium of the senior papers. Many school problems were treated with valuable suggestions. Also the fathers' and sons' banquet was held in the spring as the last meeting of the year. To Mr. Lamb and Mr. Savage can be attributed much of the Union's success. 60 THE 1938 CALL O’ PRO Standing: Martin, Clark, Drake N., MacDonald J., Hannah, Eaton.

ADVISORY BOARD THE third year of the existence of the student advisory plan for the First and Second Forms found this institution farther on its way toward perfection. It operated with moderate success. In a succinct form this is the organization and function of this body. With the approval of the faculty, the Student Council selects boys from the upper two forms whose job it will be during the year to cooperate with the faculty advisors of the First and Second Forms in helping the younger boys through the many problems which they encounter. Each advisor has from two to four of these younger boys under his care. It is his duty to watch closely the marks and progress in extra-curricular activities of his charge, and to point out all possible points where improvement might be achieved. In this way the younger fellows are acquainted with the traditional functions of Blake; and in addition to this a closer association between the older and younger elements in the school is accomplished. As previously stated, there is still a definite difference existing between the ideals of this organization, and the actual practice of it. But, nevertheless, it is a worthy institution, and the continuation of it next year will undoubtedly bring the natural improvement that follows age. 61 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PAfl Third row: Eaton.

The features which have proved to be most satisfactory have been retained. Certain changes have been made on the Senior pages. The division pages, while they incorporate the viev s of the school that were previously used, are in a new and striking style. The theme of the book, brown and white, has been carried out in-so-far as possible. The editors feel that the book is a successful combination of the best features of previous years, plus a color theme which is new to Blake. Frank Donaldson, the Business Manager, is to be congratulated on the advertisements in this book. Not only has he overcome the difficulties brought on by the slump in business, but he has succeeded in getting a large amount of boys interested in the ad campaign. TORCH THE Publications Board of 1937-38 has made few changes in the Torch. While the need for a complete reorganization of the paper was keenly felt, financial conditions have continued to prevent such a plan. The paper has been reduced slightly in size, and a new type has been incorporated. Special attention has been concentrated on making the material more interesting and readable. With a few possible exceptions, the Torch has been practically free from typographical errors. The editorial department, having seen a different operetta policy carried out and the possibility of a different method of electing the headboy, has seen fit to attempt to revive a diminishing interest, on the part of the student body, in the school's activities. 63 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PRI) Back row: Tusler, Hill G., Drake N., Swanson, Thompson T., Lucker Middle row: Dayton K., Hannah, Donaldson, Clark.

Colman, Laramee, Fisher, Carter T., Burton L., Wyman DRAMATICS THIS year under the able guidance of its officers, the dramatic association produced a very successful group of four one-act plays. This part of the school program realized success both from the point of view of the audience in attendance, and also from the financial returns. Congratulations were well given to Mrs. Whittaker for her fine direction, to Theodore Carter who was a most capable president, to Lindley Burton for his fine work as business manager, and to the property manager, Robert Fisher. The most gratifying result of this year's plays came with the sincere appreciation from the audience to the effect that the plays were both interesting and entertaining. YES MEANS NO Teddy Lawson.....................................Robert Fisher Edith Merrill....................................Kingsley Irvin William Lawson..................................Frank Donaldson T. I. Morgan...................................James Hannah Miss Collins .......................................George Hill This play was of the modern type, and the scene was in William Lawson's office. Bob Fisher took the part of a young man who proposed to his girl, Kingsley Irvin, and then went to his father, Frank Donaldson, to tell him about it. The father blocked the marriage until the son could learn to say no, and hence be able to run a business. He offered him $100 for every no he could 64 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PfM say in half an hour. This brought Teddy into complications both with James Hannah and Edith, played by Irvin. George Hill was an excellent secretary. THE OTHER ONE Ramblin' Red........................................Louis Laramee The Connecticut Kid................................Kenneth Dayton The Other One..................................Telford Thompson This play concerned three tramps who chanced to meet by some railway tracks. Although the story of the play was lacking in action, the characters of the three bums captured the interest of the audience. Louis Laramee turned in one of the best performances of the evening with his portrayal of Ramblin' Red, a hardened criminal. The Other One himself was Telford Thompson who pictured a philosophical tramp in a very convincing fashion. It was Kenneth Dayton's job to play a juvenile tramp, that is, a young man just becoming a vagrant; this performance was likewise an excellent one. ALLISON'S LAD Colonel Sir William Strickland......................Edward Colman Captain George Bowyer..............................Theodore Tusler Lieutenant Robert Goring............................Nelson Drake Francis Hopton..............................................George Waters Tom Winwood.........................................Malcolm Clark Colonel John Drummond..............................Lawrence Lucker The third play of the evening dealt with the Revolutionary days around 1650. The plot was laid amidst the hectic times of Oliver Cromwell's reign. Allison's Lad, Malcolm Clark, was a victim of the intrigue of those days, and in this play he was taken to his death, to the sorrow of Sir Strickland. Of course, the plot was much more complex than this, involving all of the characters listed above. BOX AND COX Box ............................................... Albert Martin Cox...............................................Theodore Carter Mrs. Bouncer.....................................Thomas Swanson Box and Cox was a humorous play which dealt with an English boarding house. Bert Martin was drafted for the part of Box due to the sickness of Jim Wyman. Tom Swanson, the landlady, was renting her room by night to Box, and by day to Cox. When these two finally caught on to things, she was put on the spot But more complications set in when they discovered that they were both involved with Penelope Anne. This play was very ably acted out, to the amusement of the audience, who probably saw on the night of these plays the best Blake plays ever presented. 65 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PRI) Fourth row: Thompson A., McCartney, Lucker, Sheldon, Maul, Laramee, Hill G.

These included the vocal presentations at Christmas, Vespers, and Commencement. Something new in the way of musical entertainment was offered this year by the combined glee clubs of Blake and Northrop. It was decided to give a joint concert in place of the customary operetta. The performance was given at the Northrop auditorium on the evening of Saturday, March fifth. Following this entertainment the two schools gave a dance in the gymnasium to the smooth, swing melodies of Kermit Dalby's band. The concert itself contained five songs by the Northrop Glee Club, five by Blake, and four tunes by the combined Glee Clubs. The songs presented by the two schools were Salutation by Gaines, The Galway Piper by Fletcher, Jesu, Joy of Man's desiring, and Swansea Town. The Blake Glee Club sang Winter Song, Tom Thumb's Drum, Ah, Sweet Mystery of Life, and Dance My Comrades. The concert was declared to be a refreshing change and an outstanding success by all of the large audience. 66 THE 1938 CALL 0’ Pflll Standing: Beckley. Sheldon, Colman, Spencer DeF.

DEBATE THIS year something in the form of a minor revolution occurred in respect to debating, for Blake did not engage in its annual traditional debate with S. P. A. When the two schools failed to reach an agreement on the subject, it was agreed to declare a one-year sabbatical. Under this plan Blake engaged in several contests with state high schools on the subject of Unicameralism, and S. P. A. carried on an inter-squad debating program. At the beginning of the winter term a large and enthusiastic squad turned out in response to Messrs. Bittinger and Cleveland's call for debating candidates. The question was: Resolved, That the several states should adopt the unicameralism system of legislation. Blake had its first all-senior debate team in many years when Hannah and Donaldson were chosen as first affirmative team and Anderson and Carter as first negative. The second affirmative and negative teams were respectively DeForest Spenser and Beckley, and Colman and Sheldon. All four of these teams engaged in many debates; some of the schools that Blake met this year are Marshall, West, South, Roosevelt, North, Central, South St. Paul, and Cretin. The debating season was fittingly climaxed by an interesting debate before the school on the afternoon of March 11. By a 9-1 vote of the faculty the affirmative was declared the victors in this inter-squad contest. The new system was considered very successful in its first year. 67 THE 1938 CULL 0’ PRII PUBLIC SPEAKING WILSON CUP CONTEST Winner: Woodward Kingman II A Model Letter to a Friend ' Tarkington FIFTH FORM DECLAMATION Winner: John Spencer V..............

As is the custom, the Seniors speak twice before the Chapel and the Juniors once. Mr. Alder continued his courses in public speaking for the upper three forms this year. The training that has been given in these courses has been reflected in the excellent quality of the chapel talks. The fourth form receives a course in World Problems from Mr. Bittinger. Practice in oratory and discussion is given in this class. Mrs. J. D. Nunan came to Blake this year to give training in public speaking to the lower school. The result of her work this year was clearly shown in the best Wilson Cup Contest ever held. Fourteen boys were entered in this contest. Blake boys are offered a marvelous opportunity to develop their forensic talent in these Public Speaking classes and contests at school. 68 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PM SENIOR DINNERS THIS year there have been but three Senior dinners. As usual they have been most enjoyable and beneficial to the Seniors. The speakers this year have been fathers of the members of the Senior Class. The purpose of these dinners to present to the Seniors pictures of different careers and professions, has been well carried out. The first speaker was Mr. R. L. Brooks. His address dealt with the training necessary for a business career. He spoke of the many possible courses of study that would be acceptable and outlined several rules of business that must be kept in mind if one is to succeed. Mr. James E. Dorsey was the speaker at the second dinner. His talk covered the field of law in a very complete manner. The questions that were asked after the talk indicated that it was well received. Dr. H. B. Hannah delivered the final speech before the seniors. His talk was most interesting and it left no questions in the minds of the seniors as to the complete requirements and training necessary to become a doctor. SHORT STORY CLUB The Short Story Club provided the Juniors and Seniors with a very enjoyable evening every other Sunday night during the winter term, and proved to be a most popular extra-curricular activity. Mr. Glenn again headed this organization and did much to promote its success by his careful selection and reading of the short stories. The meetings are quite informal and are held at the homes of the different members. Usually about three stories are read and refreshments and conversation served to make the evenings even more successful. The boys who opened their homes to the Short Story Club this winter were Monty Wells, Jim Dorsey, John Brooks, George Waters and Tom Swanson. 69 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PAfl JUNIOR-SENIOR PROM 1937 COMMENCEMENT night on June 11, 1937, was the date for the annual Junior-Senior Prom. By way of a change, the dance was held at the Lafayette Club and it proved to be most successful. The committee for the dance was composed of Alan Anderson, John Brooks, and Frank Donaldson. The favors were key chains for the boys and combs for the girls. Leroy Ellickson and his orchestra furnished the necessary scintillating swing tunes. CHRISTMAS DANCE THE Christmas Dance, which is sponsored by the Student Council, was well received by the school this year. Not only was the dance an enjoyable affair but it was a financial success. The committee in charge included the Senior members of the Council who are John Brooks, Frank Donaldson, and Ted Carter. The pleasing tunes were rendered by Bob Owens and his campus orchestra. The chaperones were Mr. and Mrs. Alder, Mr. and Mrs. Brooks, and Mr. and Mrs. Donaldson. SPRING DANCE THE Spring Dance was again postponed this year in order to include a number of boys who might have been away on vacation. The crowd was large enough to keep the dance a financial success. Dancing was done to the pleasing tunes of Kermot Dalby and his orchestra. The committee in charge of the Spring Dance consists of the Junior members of the Council. They were Bert Martin and Heinie Kingman. The chaperones included Mr. and Mrs Kingman, Mr. and Mrs. Martin, and Mr. Bissell. 70 THE 1938 CALL O’ Pfln ALUMNI ASSOCIATION President—Bradshaw Mintener '19 Secretary—Fred V.

Wright, Jr. '32 ON December 28th at the Minneapolis Club the annual Blake Alumni Smoker was the meeting place for a large number of Blake Alumni and faculty. The meeting was a very informal affair lasting from 4:30 to 6:00, patterned after the successful Christmas meeting of the preceding year. An attendance of nearly one hundred gives an indication of the popularity of this year's meeting. The annual Alumni baseball game was this year held at Blake on May 13th between a team of alumni and a team composed of faculty and seniors. Rain during the entire game dampened the spirits of the contestants appreciably, but the dinner, meeting and program after the game were well attended. An innovation, which met with general approval, was made this year in having the dinner served buffet. At the meeting a revision of the old constitution of the Alumni Association was accepted. All present members of the faculty and Mr. Blanpied, Mr. Sanderson, and Mr. Wilson, former masters, were elected honorary members of the association. These actions were followed by a discussion of the Press Club and the possibility of the association's awarding athletic trophies to winning teams. After the business meeting Darrel Brady presented some of his experiences in youth work in Europe. For the third year the alumni-sponsored Press Club has been functioning smoothly under the management of James Wyman, assisted by Malcolm Clark. 71 THE 1938 CALL 0’ Pfll) CUM LAUDE BOYS in the graduating class who have completed a full course of study with an honor record and stand in the first fifth of their group are elected to membership in the Cum Laude Society, a national honorary organization, admission to which is based wholly on scholarship and character.

Kingman Treas.—Mrs. Robert C. Woodworth Vice Pres.—Mrs. Cargill MacMillan Sec.—Mrs. Frederick W. Mokros THE Blake Mothers' Association held its first business meeting on Founders Day, November the twelfth. Since the previous year's method of collecting dues—that of including them in the school bill—had been so successful, it was again adopted. The motion to continue the policy of giving a half-scholar-ship in the Senior School was carried. The members for the committees and mothers to represent the forms were appointed at this time. At the close of the meeting the mothers joined the fathers, alumni and faculty at tea in the library. A special meeting of executive, finance and dinner committees was called at the Senior School, April twenty-fifth. Its purpose was to complete plans for the annual Parents and Teachers Dinner and to determine the wisest and most needed expenditures of funds in the treasury. The needs of the school libraries and a desire to set a definite amount aside each year for the purchase of additional books were stressed. It was recommended that $25 be spent for the Junior and Senior libraries; $75 for the upkeep of the Senior Room; $25 toward furnishing the Mothers and Teachers room at the Junior School; and that a new rug be purchased for Mr. Alder's office. Mothers and teachers at Junior Blake have been very active this year. In the fall a general meeting and tea was held at which each teacher gave a short talk. Later each class chairman held at her home a special meeting of the mothers in order to take up the particular problems of the class. Mrs. Mac Milian, chairman of the Program Committee, provided very interesting monthly programs during the year, using outside talent. At the Senior School meetings were held in the fall for the mothers of boys in each form, and the problems of each group discussed. The annual Parents and Teachers dinner on May the sixth was an outstanding event of the year. Following the dinner the guests adjourned to the Chapel, where a short business meeting and a most interesting program were presided over by Mrs. Kingman, the president. Respectfully submitted, BLANCHE G. MOKROS Secretary 73 THE 1938 CALL O’ PAfl Farr, Denman, Zinsmaster, Mr. Conley, Whittaker, Jones S., Mr. Bittinger, Tusler DORMITORIES CONTINUING the policy inaugurated before last year, the Publications Board has considered it expedient to devote space to the two dormitories. In way of primary explanation, it is necessary to state that Blake House is for the students of the Upper School, while West House lodges the boys of the Lower School. However, at times, older boys reside at the latter dormitory. Fifteen boys can be accommodated, and the two houses have been filled almost to capacity this year. Most of the boarders hail from Minnesota, but at certain times, California, Idaho, North Dakota, and Wisconsin have had representation. Many Minneapolis boys board at the dormitories in the absence of their parents and to avail themselves of skilled scholastic guidance and help from the masters in charge. In 1920 Blake officially opened its first dormitory, although some boys had been boarding at a private home near the school previous to this date. One of the masters and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Clough, were put in charge of this dormitory, Blake House. A few years afterward, Mr. and Mrs. Hallenbeck assumed charge. They were followed by the Geisers and the Smiths in that 74 THE 1938 CALL O’ PAf) Perry, Mr. Lamb, Spencer, Barbour G., Heffelfinger P., Cameron, Barbour H. order. Mr. Coulter and Mr. Home were the next of the house masters. Mr. Owen was at the Blake House for a short time. The next in succession were Mr. and Mrs. Slater. Mr. Bittinger came to Blake in 1930, and when Mr. Slater left to go to Adelphi Academy, he took over the position of chief master of the Blake House. Mr. Conley has assisted Mr. Bittinger during the last three years. West House is a rather recent addition to the Blake Boarding Department, having its beginning in 1926. At this time Mr. and Mrs. Lamb took over the responsibilities of leadership, and have remained there ever since. During these years, Mr. Foss, Mr. Horne, Mr. Coulter, Mr. Bittinger, Mr. Wagner, and Mr. Pithie have served as Associate Master at the West House. Some day, not too far in the future, we can see the enrollment of Blake assuming much larger proportions, and this will mean the establishment of a greater Dormitory Department. Blake is still growing and has not yet approached the size it will attain in years to come. 75 76 Field House THE 1938 CALL O’ PAF1 Mr. Cleveland, Martin, Wells, Thompson J., Mr. Horne A. A. AS usual the first meeting of the year included the A. A. board, the coaches, the managers, and the captains of the various teams. This group met in Mr. Cleveland's room and suggested a budget for the year's athletics. The entire school accepted this budget at a later meeting without any discussion. During the year several changes were made in the athletic constitution. On January 28, by a two-thirds majority of the entire school, hockey became a major sport. This event was the outstanding business of the year. The former rule: that a boy should be required to gain only three letters to win a sweater, was altered, and the award was changed from just a plain brown or white sweater to a brown sweater with three white stripes on the arm, or a white sweater with three brown stripes on the arm. A provision was also made in the constitution whereby no boy could be captain of two sports, and the captain must be a senior wherever possible. From the money allowed them in their budget the baseball team received new uniforms this year. 79 THE 1938 CALL O’ Pfll) Standing: Mr. Horne, Neils, McCarthy, Brooks ]., DeLaittre C., Thompson J., Thompson T., Martin, McDonald F.. Mr. Owen Seated: Swanson, Dorsey P., Mokros, Wells. Thompson A., Drake N„ Drake W.. Bonner, Fisher FOOTBALL WE of the Publications Board feel justified in saying that this has been one of the most successful years in the history of Blake football. Not only was the team undefeated and untied, but there was not the slightest doubt that Blake was definitely superior to every team it met throughout the season. Both the scores of the games and the contests, as the season progressed, proved this. But it is not because of the top-heavy scores that we are so proud of this year's team. It is because this team had the indomitable determination and the fight which, without anything else, is more than enough for victory. BLAKE: 33—LE SUEUR: 0. The opening game of the season saw an untried Blake team run wild over an inferior aggregation from LeSueur High School. This game, played under the lights at LeSueur, proved all that had been claimed about fullback DeLaittre. His hard running and talented toe brought Blake 33 points, and his shining defensive work was instrumental in holding the local team scoreless. Also outstanding was the generalship of Wells and the hard work of Johnny Brooks at tackle. BLAKE: 33-LeCENTER: 0. Blake opened the home season by running wild, this time over a light squad for LeCenter. Bob Neils, reserve back opened the scoring with a short plunge over tackle, and from that point on, the game was a rout. DeLaittre scored three touchdowns, and Wells scored on a lateral reverse from mid-field. The line shone in this game, and Jock Thompson was 80 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PHI) almost impregnable on the left flank. In this game, Captain Sandy Thompson received an injury which kept him on the bench for two weeks. BLAKE: 33-BRYN MAWR: 0. Demonstrating a polish and smoothness which had been absent in the first two games, the team rolled up 33 points for the third straight game. Jock Thompson was the unmistakable star of the game. He scored three of Blake's tallys on passes, and also continued his fine defensive work on his end. Monty Wells clinched the passing task in this game, for his accurate tosses to Jock had much to do with the former's high average for the day. Bert Martin on the other flank had an excellent day, and Bryn Mawr could only gain through the air. BLAKE: 21-SHATTUCK: 6. Putting forth their greatest effort of the season, Blake avenged the crushing defeat of the year before by completely dominating a heavy Shattuck squad. The deadlock was broken in the second quarter when Monty Wells snagged a Shattuck pass about mid-field and ran for a touchdown. This was followed by DeLaittre's buck to the end zone, and the first half ended shortly after. In the second half, DeLaittre bucked another touchdown over, and the Shads scored on a tricky pass from punt formation. This was one of the team's sweetest victories because of Shattuck's domination of the football situation for the past few years. BLAKE: 20-MILLER VOCATIONAL: 6. Coming down the stretch, Blake continued its enviable record by defeating the strong aggregation from south Minneapolis. The first half was dominated by Blake, and the brown clad backs penetrated the Miller line almost at will. However, the second string played almost the entire second half. Mainly because of inexperience, the Millers were able to make consistent gains through the reserve front wall. These gains were climaxed by a touchdown plunge. BLAKE: 33-S. P. A.: 0. A perfect season was ended in the form of a decisive victory over Blake's traditional rivals, S. P. A. At the very beginning of the game, it looked as though the down-river boys would put up a stubborn battle. However, the game was still young when the boys in blue cracked before the dynamic power of the Blake gridders. The brown-clad athletes scored at will, and the final score was an accurate account of the contest. In this game, seven lettermen played their last game for Blake. 81 MIKE’S COMMENTS ON THE LETTERMEN SANDY THOMPSON An ideal captain for any football team, because of his inspiration and example for the entire squad. His specialty was blocking. NELS DRAKE One of the hardest workers on the squad. With his fine ability and team spirit he should make an excellent leader and captain in 1938. CARTER DELAITTRE A newcomer this year who had everything. Was the most consistent ground-gainer and best punter on the squad. Got the Blake spirit very quickly. JOCK THOMPSON Without doubt, the outstanding candidate for all-Time, all-Blake end. 82 MONTY WELLS A combination of field generalship and playing ability that has rarely been equalled in the past at Blake. JOHN BROOKS A star at tackle on his good days, and good on his poor days. BERT MARTIN Not a star, but does everything well. One of the mainstays of the team. TEL THOMPSON The steady, dependable type of player who make up the backfield in winning teams. 83 BOB FISHER In spite of the fact that he was handicapped by a lack of weight, he played a good game at center. BERT MOKROS Only a lack of self-confidence and aggressiveness kept him from being the best man on the line this year. PETE DORSEY Came along slowly the first part of the season, but gained more confidence toward the close and turned in some good performances. BILL DRAKE A money player. Coasting Monday through Thursday, but a joy on Friday. Should be an A-l center next year. FRANK MacDONALD Dogged persistence for the past two years enabled him to make his letter at guard this year. 84 BOB NEELS Has outstanding ability, and with added confidence from the past year's experience, should be hard to stop next fall. don McCarthy A hard worker that loves the game, should make a regular job on the line next year. JACK BONNER A newcomer who began to catch on toward the close of the season. Should be outstanding next fall. TOM SWANSON, Mgr. When he realized that the managership was a serious job, and an important one too, he got busy and did a good job. 85 THE 1938 CALL O’ Pfll) Standing: Dorsey ]., Manager. Burton L., Mokros, DeLaittre C., Shearer, Kingman H., Mr. Savage Seated: Thompson J„ Martin, Brooks J.f Wells, Thompson T. HOCKEY THIS year was a banner year for the Blake hockey team since it accomplished three things of the utmost importance both to itself and to the school. The first was that it swept through an undefeated season, the second one in this sport's history, and piled up 54 goals against its opponents' 12. The second accomplishment of which the team may boast is the fact that, because of its fine record and wide renown, hockey, this year, was voted a major sport at Blake. The third triumph of the team was made possible through the generosity of the Dramatic Association, which made a gift of $225 towards new warming houses. As a result, under the direction of Mr. Westmark and Mr. Savage two new warming houses were built last fall. Coach John Savage deserves the utmost praise for all of these achievements, since he has constantly put himself to no end of trouble in working for the best interests of hockey as a sport at Blake. Both Mr. Savage and Mr. Home coached Upper and Lower School hockey teams this year and have undoubtedly done much to insure the success of future hockey teams. The season opened on January 7 on the home rink, when Blake defeated Marshall, the city high school champions, by a score of 6 to 1. The following Tuesday, the team met St. Thomas on the Academy ice and defeated them by a margin of three goals to one. When the squad met West, on January 13, it had been revised to quite an 86 THE 1938 CALL O’ PAF1 extent and did not function so v ell as might have been hoped, and missed several scoring opportunities. However, West suffered a 3 to 1 defeat at the hands of the Hilltoppers. On January 26, the team won a 3 to 0 victory over their traditional rivals, St. Paul Academy. The snow falling on the rink was the only thing that kept them from an even more decisive victory. The team met its second hardest game and played its best hockey against the Cretin team which came to Blake on January 29. The playing was hard and clean on both sides and the boys really worked to emerge the victors of a skirmish which ended in a score of 5 to 3. St. Thomas seemed to give the Brown and White very little resistance on February 2 and suffered a second setback, this one by a score of 10 to 2 on the Blake rinks. When the team journeyed to Shattuck on February 5, it met weather which would have pleased a baseball team, but which left Shattuck's ice in a deplorable state since there was a full inch of slush and soft ice on the rinks. Only fine spirit and good breaks led Blake to a 3 to 0 victory. The only thing which marred the Hockey season even slightly was a 3 to 3 deadlock with Cretin on February 15 after two overtime periods. Both teams played their best and, although some feeling arose over a disputed Cretin goal, the game was one of the best and most exciting of the year. When S. P. A. travelled to Blake on February 18, the Academy was crushed by a score of 10 to 2. On Monday, February 21, West came out to Blake and was handed a 4 to 0 trimming. The last game of the year, on Feb. 23, was against Shattuck and the Shads were victims of a 4 to 0 defeat at the hands of the Blake team, many members of which were playing their last game of hockey for Blake. Appreciation of the value of Captain John Brooks as a stellar defense man was shown by the fact that the team awarded him the Dartmouth Trophy for the most valuable player. Bert Martin's election as captain of next year's team proves that he was a great asset as goalie. Wells and Jock Thompson, who were the high scorers for the season, and the other seniors, Burton, Thompson and DeLaittre will leave many serious vacancies in next year's lineup. 87 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PRO Standing: Mr. Owen, Coach, Drake W., Drake N., Bonner, Martin, Thompson J. Anderson, Manager Seated: Brooks J., Thompson A., Laramee, Wells. Dobson T., Waters, Kingman BASEBALL WITH six regulars returning, the baseball team prospects this year seemed unusually good. However, the batting punch was severely crippled by the loss of Charlton and Bissell. Hence, the team, thus far, has earned the title of hitless wonders. However, to offset this deficiency, the team has shown to fine advantage defensively. The effective pitching of Captain Wells and the stellar work of Jock Thompson behind the plate has been perhaps the most vital factor in the games won thus far in the season. Also, the veteran infield has contributed more than a little to the team's success. Waters has maintained his last year's standard on first, and Bert Martin has continued to make Blake history on the keystone sack. A newcomer at short, Heinie King-man has taken a real hold, and he should be one of the most valuable men on the team next year. The veteran Sandy Thompson continues to guard the hot corner. In the outfield, Johnny Brooks is the only returning regular, and he is ending his career at Blake in a blaze of glory. Jim Wyman is holding down the job in left, and Jack Bonner and Billy Drake continue to fight for the right field spot. The team dropped the opener to St. Thomas by the close score of 4 to 3. The Brown and White then journeyed to Bethel, where the first victory of the year was gained by the score of 4 to 2. The following Saturday, at Calhoun Field. Blake took a merciless beating at the hands of the crack West High 88 THE 1938 CALL O’ Pfln nine. However, there is no doubt that nervousness made the Blake boys look much worse than they were, despite the undoubted superiority of the Green and White. Blake went on to defeat the traditional rivals S. P. A. and Shattuck by the scores of 5-3 and 3-2 respectively. Following these games, the strong DeLaSalle team was beaten by the score of 4 to 3. Too much praise can not be given to Coach Shube Owen, whose tireless efforts have made Blake's outstanding record of the past few years what it is. In the games remaining this season, we predict that the team will have no small amount of success, and that the final record will be one of which the entire school can be proud.

SWIMMING TEAM THE swimming team was led through a very successful season by Captain Nelson Drake, who was elected when George Clifford left school. In the course of the season, the team lost but three meets. These were suffered at the hands of West High, Shattuck, and Roosevelt High, but these were offset by nine victories over Minneapolis and St. Paul high schools. Captain Nelson Drake, swimming in the backstroke and the medley, turned in a consistently fine performance. He has fulfilled the predictions made for him by becoming the excellent swimmer he gave promise of being in the Fourth and Fifth Forms, and next year he is expected to have another fine year. The diving department was strongly held up by Sandy Thompson and Laurence Lucker. Lucker, a newcomer to the ranks last year, has done amazingly well, and has turned in several fine performances this year. Sandy continued his fine work of last year, and he was awarded the Thomas Trophy, which is the highest honor a Blake swimmer can receive. Both of these divers have served the school for the last time. In the breast stroke, Bob Fisher continued his excellent work. He not only held up his end in the one hundred yard breast stroke, but also came through several times to give Blake a victory in the medley. George Williams, the other breast stroker, while somewhat green, shows promise of being a reliable performer in future years. He is a hard worker, and a few more years of experience is all that he needs to attain stardom. 93 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PAfl In addition to Sandy Thompson, Lucker, and Fisher, the fourth man lost by graduation is Mai Moore. Mai was the regular for the forty-yard dash, and he could always be counted on to turn in a creditable race. He always does his best, and he can well be called one of the most conscientious men on the squad. Frankie McDonald usually swam number two in the forty, and with this year's experience, he should be one of the team's mainstays next season. Leonard Eaton, swimming the one hundred-yard free style displayed results and showed ability which was far in excess of his expectations. During the first part of the season, Billy Strong swam this event with Eaton, but when he was transferred to the backstroke to replace Louie Laramee, Bill Drake filled in this spot, and proved to one and all that he is potentially one of Blake's greatest swimmers. Strong, in his new event, did himself proud, and he is an excellent prospect for future years. In the 220-yard free style, Wally Dayton did well with the aid of Jim Cowin and Mai Clark. While Wally met defeat at the hands of several of the city's crack men, he will be much improved next year, and great things are expected of him. Cowin, while still in the lower forms, may be a first rate swimmer if he can cut a few seconds off his time. He gave a few adequate performances this season, and future years are expected to show much improvement in this husky lad. To the other members of the squad, who did not receive letters, we wish to take this opportunity to congratulate them on the display of courage and determination which in future years will not be denied. They can and should be truly proud of the traditional display of the Blake School spirit. In closing, too much credit can not be given to Coach Hartman and Adviser Bosanko, whose unfailing enthusiasm and indomitable determination have, in their many years of association with Blake swimming, brought much credit to both themselves and the school. 94 THE 1938 CULL O’ Pflfl Back row: Burton J., Thompson T., Cleveland, Mr. Cleveland Front row: DeLaittre C., Shearer, Burton L.. McCarthy TENNIS THERE were only two returning lettermen, Captain Lindley Burton and Don McCarthy, the playing manager, when Coach Cleveland called the squad together this spring. However. Roddie Shearer and Carter DeLaittre soon joined Lindley Burton as singles players. The doubles teams have been changed around a great deal, and it is impossible to say even now what the regular combinations are. Besides the players already mentioned, Telford Thompson, John Burton and John Cleveland are playing doubles. To date, the netmen have played six matches. They have defeated Concordia, DeLaSalle and St. Paul Academy once each, but have lost to Shattuck once and St. Thomas twice in close matches. The team is looking forward optimistically to the return matches with these schools. The team is indebted to the Trustees who made possible the leveling and resurfacing of all eight tennis courts this spring. This year there was an exceptionally large turn out for tennis of over forty boys, so there will be no lack of material for Coach Cleveland in the future. 95 THE 1938 CALL O’ PHI) Denman, Flannery, Swanson, Moore, Sheldon, Mr. Glenn GOLF BECAUSE of good weather, the Blake Golf team was able to start its seventh year of practice the first day of the Spring term at the Minikahda course. The four lettermen with the team again this year are Captain Tom Swanson, Manager Malcolm Moore, George Flannery, and Albert Sheldon. Chuck Arnao was the only other veteran playing with the squad. Jack Denman, Malcolm Clark, George Stillman, and Sheldon Childs are seeing their first year of service with the golfers. In the first match Blake defeated St. Louis Park High lQI 2 to l1 . Other victories to date were 7i 2 to 4' 2 over West High and 7 to 5 over S. P. A. Two matches were lost by a close score, the one to Shattuck 7 to 5, and the other to Gustavus Adolphus College 5 2 to 6 2. Four other contests scheduled at the time of this writing were: University High, Lake Forest Academy of Illinois, S. P. A., and Shattuck. The lineup for the first five matches was: Swanson, number one man; Denman, number two; Moore, number three; and Flannery, number four. Coach Glenn has not concentrated all his attention on these four team members but has advised and assisted the other members of the squad, from whom he hopes to build strong teams for the next few years. The golf team is again indebted to Dr. Michelson for his donation of a handsome trophy to be awarded to the winner of a tournament conducted among the squad members. 96 THE 1938 CALL 0’ PRI1 COEFFICIENTS DURING the year of 1937-38, the coefficient teams have maintained the high standard of the past few years. The spirit has been excellent as is shown by the large turnouts for all three teams. In the first series of football games, Mr. Glenn's powerful A team defeated S. P. A. 14-0 on the Academy field. Two weeks later, led by Kingman and Shearer, it displayed even better form in crushing the down-river boys 28-0 on the Blake gridiron. The B” team this year was not equal in ability to those of the past. Notwithstanding Mr. Strickland's excellent coaching, the team lost the first game of the season. Then, showing remarkable determination, it almost defeated S. P. A. in the return contest. The final gun sounded when Blake had the ball on the Academy one yard line. Despite their defeats, the boys gained experience and training which will be invaluable to them in years to come. The C team, too, was defeated in its first game. However, after two weeks of hard practice under Mr. Bittinger, it came back to win a glorious victory, 7-6, on the Death Valley'' field. As usual, the Coefficient teams did not play as such this winter. Many of the boys played hockey, others skiied and several swam. On the ice, the Lower School boys were divided up into two teams. Each of these played several games, both with S. P. A. and with Kenwood. In the Upper School, the second varsity team, made up chiefly of A teamers, played S. P. A. three times and Shattuck once, winning two of the four games. This spring the Coefficient teams began baseball practice the first day of the spring term. Already, the first series of games with S. P. A. have been played. On their home diamond the A team overwhelmed the St. Paul boys 10-2 in a very one-sided game. However, Mr. Lundholm's B team and Mr. Conley's ‘C team were both defeated, though the scores were close. Altogether, this year has been a very successful one for the Coefficient teams. 97 THE 1938 CULL 0’ PIM BROWN AND WHITE THE Brown and White plan of intra-mural athletics this year has taken a definite step forward, since there have been more activities and each activity has received more support from the school. Sandy Thompson was elected captain of the Browns, and Jock Thompson was captain of the Whites. In the fall, three football games were played instead of the customary two games. The Whites took an early lead by winning the Varsity and “C games, while the Browns were victorious in the ‘'B'' game. In the winter, the ski meet once more was the high spot, as the number of contestants and spectators even surpassed the number of the year before. The Browns of the Lower School were the winners of their events, but in the Upper School the Whites won enough points to give their side the lead for the entire meet. Because of warm weather and bad ice, the Brown and White hockey games were not played, but they were ably supplanted by a new event, the wrestling bouts. The Whites managed to win this feature by a very narrow margin, and it might be said that the quality of wrestling was exceptionally good. The swimming meet was the final event of the winter term, and once more the Whites were victorious. In the spring term, the baseball games and the track meet will take place, and these events will undoubtedly be as well supported as have the other activities. As the Call O'Pan goes to press, the total scores find the Whites ahead by a score of 148 to 72. Hence these spring contests mean much to the Browns. The winners of Varsity letters in football and swimming were not allowed to participate in the Brown and White games in these two sports, and so it is easily seen that such competition offers those boys who failed to make these teams an excellent opportunity to play. This means that every boy in the school is offered a chance to play in some game. Likewise, the competition in unorganized sports such as skiing and wrestling becomes so keen that the participants' skill becomes greater. Therefore the Brown and White system of intra-mural athletics not only gives every boy in the school a chance to enter into some form of athletics, but it also raises the standard and number of sports at Blake. 98 v:: • • • • • • • � • • •••• ••••••• • • •••••«• • • • •••• • ••• ■ ••••• • • . • ••• • ;••••• • � « •� ••• • • ■ • • • • •• • � • • • • •• • � . • • • • • • • • • •• • I M • « • « « . . • MV • • [[IS SI East Entrance 100 FACULTY Now here's the deal.''
