Phyllis is a pretty name, Nothing in it—much, Boots, who runs around with her, Alway gets himself in Dutch. Abe is an entertainer, He sings aloud at study; While Betty’s always on the move— Takes no sass from anybody. Lynne is editor of the paper. Which is called The Periscope. Barbara. Madeline and Alice Will always live in hope. Myrtle, Vurty and Lillie Are, all three, very shy; While George, Mildred and Ruby Do everything on the sly. There's John, Walt and Albert, The last two are brothers; And from the way they act They must never mind their mothers. Next comes Mary, Harry and Lewis, They are what you might call queer; But when you happen to think of it What would we do if they weren’t here? Last are Vernon, lone and Wendell, They are seniors, thru and thru. We know nothing bad about them But their good points are not few. I have tiied to portray them Each one as they might be. But the best way to get acquainted Is to meet tbe class of ’23. PERISCOPE 14 Grant Hooker Patterson Senior (Class ®istim) It hardly seems four long years since we, the present senior class, spoilt our first (lay in Dallas High, does it? I shall not say that we were green, for of course we really weren’t. Perhaps we did make a few mistakes, hut who wouldn’t? We are still quite sure, however, that more fun was made of us and that we were teased more thifn any other class has been teased in history. A It ho our activities during our freshman year were not at all startling, we had many good times, most of which we owed to our teacher. Miss Leone Williams. By the time we reached our sophomore year, the upper classmen began to respect us moie. It was in the early part of that year that we gave the sophomore-freshman i coopt ion, which proved to he only t he first of a series of successful events in our career. Tho we did not attempt to give any plays during these first two years, we showed what we could do in the remaining years. Our junior year stands out as one of our busiest and best. We felt especially proud of our first play, which was given in that year. Surely everyone remembers the “Little (’lodhopper ’ Later in the spring we gave the customary junior-senior reception. This year our numbers have been greatly decreased. Nevertheless, we started the year right by choosing Mr. Coleman as class advisor; Ilalden Grant, president; Eugene Hooker, vice-president: and Alice Patterson, secretary and treasurer. We have been well represented in all of the school activities and a number of senior boys helped compose our famous basketball team. All year our representatives on the Periscope staff worked hard to make the paper as much of a success as it has always been before. Tho we have been exceedingly busy this year, we have not been too busy to give the class play, ‘ Safety First,” which we consider the most notable success of all. As we look back over high school days we find that only the pleasanter memories have stayed with us. and these are the memories which we will always carry with us. We hope that the classes to come will find at least a little good in the examples we have tried to set. A.

PERISCOPE 22 Senior Class |lropl}ecy Crystal (Oa-imi in 1945 You asked me if I believed in tlie ancient practice of the crystal gazer and if I believe he sees all he claims to see. Now you want to know why I believe this thing. My friend, I will tell you of a strange thing that happened just two months ago in this very room on just such a night, cold and rainy, as this, and then perhaps you will not ridicule the crystal gazer when next you hear of him. I sat here alone in the darkness, save for the dim glow from the heap of coals in the fireplace. The wind went whistling around (lie corners and a loose windowsash rattled whenever a heavy gust of wind and rain struck it. The raging of the storm ohtside caused me to unconsciously move nearer the fire and thank my lucky stars that I was under a sound roof and not outside at the mercy of the elements. As I sat here thinking over my past experiences of twenty years wandering I bout the world, I remembered an old Hindoo that I had met in Bombay nearly ten years ago. This old patriarch and I became great friends during my two motiilts' stay in Bombay. The evening before I left for home this old man made me a present of his dearest possession, the crystal you see up there on the mantel above the fireplace. I told him that I did not know how to use it and that it would be better for him to keep ic, but he said, “Take it, my son. and when the right time comes you will use it.” Well, I carted the thing home and put it up there to ornament my den. And there it rested through all these years. As I sat here I looked up at chat ancient exponent of Hindoo mysticism and wondered if it really would reveal all the wonders that it was said to contain. So, out of curiosity, I took it down from its pedestal and, holding it up, gazed into the depths of this semitransparent globe. Now what did I want to see? Ah, I knew. It was the class of ’23 of D. H. S. that I wanted to see and wanced to learn what each one was doing at that time. Sure enough the crystal first became smoky, then the clouded vapory substance, cleared away and I saw each in turn and what he or she was doling. If you are interested, I will relate to you just what I saw. Well, first I saw an office with a rather gray haired, stout man resembling our mutual friend, Lynne Black, sitting at the desk. Near him sac a middle-aged woman itapidly taking notes on a pad. The woman was Vurty Grant. Tne walls of the office weie covered with posters like this: Vote for Lynne Black, Democratic Candidate for Governor.” I gathered from this that Lynne was running for office and that iuty was hi private secretary. ltapidly the scene changed and 1 saw George Brown, much older, hue siill the same old George, walking through a vast at chard of prune trees. He was a prune laiser. Then I saw a fine theater with dancing chorus girls and a great orchestra in action. One of the fair maidens I recognized as Maiy Wagner and the leader of the orchestra was Halden Grant. Nexc my crystal showed me the great body of senators seated in their assembly at 23 PERISCOPE Washington. They were listening to a speech mtide by a woman in tlie Oregon section. The woman was lone Iinhler. Then I was brought to a large city which I at once recognized as New York. First 1 saw a big department stove, and one of the floor-walkers was our old friend John Robinson. Then on down one of the main thoroughfares, I presume it was Fifth Avenue, I saw a very elaborate French modiste shop. Inside directing tlie attendants was Phyllis Myers. Next I saw a large building with a sign. “New York Herald on the corner. Inside at tlie editor's desk sat Harry Mixer. Another big building was shown. It was the home of the Stafrin Wholesale Drug company. You’ve gnesstd it. Ruby and Mildred were the managers of this concern. Up inside of a new office building I saw a sign on an office door which said. “R. E. Hooker, Physician and Surgeon. Then I saw that part of New York called Greenwich Village. And in a beautiful studio 1 found Elizabeth Ha.vter at work at an easel. In a great airplane terminal somewhere in tlie west 1 saw two gentlemen who looked like traveling salesmen. One was Abe Regier and the other, Lewis Wick. By the advertising matter they carried I could tell that Abe sold soap ami that Lewis sold athletic goods. Next I saw a huge seminary for gills, and inside in an office marked “Principal,” sat Alice Patterson. Then in a fine laboratory which 1 recognized as a radio experimental station was Vernon Brown. In an office of a big automobile company I found Albert Voth in the president’s private sanctum. Then I saw a huge audience listening spellbound to a daikhaired woman playing a piano. At the completion of the selection she rose fiom her seat to acknowledge the applause and I found that it was Barbara Chapman. In a beautiful paik-like spate there stood a large building. Inside in the center of a group of babies was Myrtle Willis. 1 knew that she must he the matron of a baby home. The scene then changed to a h isehall park and a world series game was in progress. The man walking up to the plate was Walter Voth. And then a vision came of tlie American embassy in Paris. Down the steps came the ambassador and his wife who was none other than Madeline Gerlinger. Then back to Wall Street the crystal took me, where, in a beautifully furnished office, calmly leading tl.e tape from the stock ticker, while messengers rushed in and out, sat Wendell Sanders. Then slowly the last picture faded away and I knew that I would see no moie that night. Now, do you wonder that I believe iu crystal gazing? Surely you don't, for what one sees with one's own eyes one believes. R. F. '2.I.

THE GLASS OF NINETEEN TWENTY-THREE. 27 PERISCOPE emar Class |3lay “•Syafetn JFii-at” The Senior class chose “Safety First” as their class play and made a huge success of it. I( had prohahly the largest attendance of any play given during the year. The amount cleared was large and enabled the Senior class to enter into other activities. The first scene of the play was carried on in the home of Jack Montgomery, where his wife was discovered crying. Jack had not come home all night and the attempt of the cook, Mary Ann, to console her mistress had the opposite effect, as she related horrible incident after incident. Elmer Flannel, a young college chap, made his appearance on the scene and tried to console Mabel. He also made a slip, and Mabel learned he was to marry a Turkish girl, Zuleika, which only made matters worse. Mabel’s sister, Virginia. appeared and Mabel related to her how Jack and Jerry Arnold, Virginia's sweetheart. had disappeared. They asked Elmer to take them to the police sttaion and he at first refused, as he intended to see the Shriners leave for Florida at noon. HowWere, when Abou Ben Mocha put in his appearance and told how his daughter, Zuleika, had disappeared and showed a card bearing the name of Jack Montgomery, Elmer was moie than willing to accompany them to the police station. Ahou caused a row and Elmer and Mary Ann threw him out of the house. While Mitbel. Virginia and Elmer were at the police station, Jack and Jerry put in their appearance. They related the experience of the night before, which was at the fortune tellers. They had gone to Zuleika's to try to get her to leave Elmer alone, and while, there the police broke in and tried to arrest them. A fight ensued, and after kicking one of the policemen and spending the night in a box car. they had arrived home. They decided to tell Mabel and Virginia that they had joined a lodge, but misfortune overtook them again when an officer accompanied by Zuleika put in his appearance. Officer McNutt told them that they had a sentence of thirty days which they must serve for assaulting a policeman. Mabel, Vitginia and Elmer returned from the police station and Jack and Jerry told them they were leaving on the Shrine excursion to Florida and that McNutt and Zuleika were married and going on their honeymoon. Elmer was grief-stricken ; and McNutt being Mary Ann's fiance, she fainted. The second scene opened with Elmer's return from California, where he had gone to try to forget Zuleika. He learned from Mabel and Virginia of Jack and Jerry’s apparent deatli at sea, and thus more sorrow was added to his lot. While Mabel and Virginia were gone to order a marble monument, Abou put in his appearance and after terrorizing Maty Ann and Elmer, he learned that Zuleika had apparently eloped with McNutt. The thirty days were tip and Jack and Jerry again put in their appearance, and were forced to make up quite a story explaining that they weren't drowned. Abou terrorized everyone and finally the blame for Zuleika’s disappearance rested on Jack’s and Jerry’s shoulders. Jack was advised by Elmer to act crazy as “a Turk never injures an insane man,” so Jack followed his advice. McNutt made a plea to Jack and Jerry to fix everything with Mary Ann, but they refused. He told Mary Ann everything, she told Mrs. Barrington, Bridges, the mother of Mabel and Virginia, and so Mrs. Barrington Bridges took the girls to her home. Elmer and Zuleika got married and he introduced Zuleika as a baroness to Mrs. Barrington Bridges. Jack sneaked into the garden and visited Mabel and they decided to PERISCOPE 28 elope. Jerry disguised as McNutt, who was patrolling tlie garden, and visited Virginia. Some queer inixups resulted f ora this disguise between Jerry, Virginia, McNutt, and Mary Ann. In the fonttli scene Jack tried to elope with Mabel, but got Mary Ann instead. The mixup, however, was all straightened out and Mrs. Harrington Bridges forgave Jack and Jerry. She also learned through Ahou that Zuleika was not a baroness, and when she questioned Eliuei he replied. “Safety First. THE CAST Mabel Montgomery....... Virginia Bridges.......

Jackson Saxton junior Class History It was in tli(k month of October that the present Junior class, consisting of thirty-six members made their debut in high school. Fearing that our present knowledge of high school affairs was very limited, we elected all mid-term Freshmen for our officers. The ones responsible for activities were: Abe Regier. piesident; Robert Harris, vic-president: and Lynne Black, secretary. Orange and white seemed to fit the taste of most of the Frosh. so consequently they were chosen. Thus we commenced our second year in high school with much the same spirit and pep. We elected the following for our officers: Willard Brown, president: Bill Sanders, vice-president: and Kennedy Warden, secretary. Duifng this year we took a more active part in all activities. Our first social event was the Sophomore and Freshman reception, which, of course, was a success. And under the direction of Miss Dick we presented the play, Mr. Bob.” This, our Junior year, has found us taking part in all activities. Being decreased greatly in number did not hinder us in going to the top in all our undertakings. Our officers during this term were: Bill Sanders, president: Marjorie Jackson, vice-presi- dent : Verda Saxton, secretary. This season both the hoys and girls entered more enthusiastically into all forms of athletics. The basketball teams consisted mainly of Junior members, and with their support helped win a large percentage of the games. We have also been represented in the Glee club and other studnt aetivitis. With special work on the class play and the Junior and Senior reception, the Juniors have been very busy for the past months. Now that our Junior term is nearly to a close we are looking forward with match anticipation as to what we will accomplish as Seniors. And with the best wishes to the present Senior class, we hope to occupy their place with the same spirit and pep we have had in former years. PERISCOPE 30 WSm : Si . : i: L-..........

Although we were green and easy victims of the pranks f the upper classmen, the Sophomores of '24 found that it was not an easy matter to initiate us because we could run too fast for them. We elected the following to guide us throng our first year of high school: Kf nnetli Day, president; Frank Starr, vice-president; Homer Ellis, secretary; Warren Dunn, treasurer. They proved very efficient and we are very grateful to them for making tin year a most successful one. We were well represented in all the athletic events, in both our Freshman and Sophomore years, and we have every reason to b proud of the abilities of our class members. In our Freshman year, Homer Ellis was elected to he on the I). II. S. debating team, and in our Sophomore year, Homer Ellis and Oramel Shreeve represented us on I he team. Homer Ellis also won the declamatory contest, thus making our class champion of the high school. This year we elected the following as class officers: President, Oramel Shreeve; vice-president, Helen Lewis: secretary-treasurer, Joe Griffin. For our class advisor we chose Mrs. Turner—and a mighty good one, we'll say ! We started the social events of the year by giving the “Frosli a Hallow,i.nr party at the armory. According to report this was the most elaborate affair ever given to any Freshman class of D. II. S. We determined, however, at the outset, to do right every task we undertook.

Although we were green and easy victims of the pranks of the upper classmen, the Sophomores of '24 found that it was not an easy matter to initiate us because we could run too fast for them. We elected the following to guide us throng our first year of high school: Kenneth Day, president: Frank Starr, vice-president: Homer Ellis, secretary: Warren Dunn, treasurer. They proved very efficient and we are very grateful to them for making the year a most successful one. We were well represented in all the athletic events, in both our Freshman and Sophomore years, and we have every reason to h proud of the abilities of our class members. In our Freshman year, Homer Ellis was elected to he on the I . II. S. debating team, and in our Sophomore year, Homer Ellis and Oramel Slireeve represented us on I hi team. Homer Ellis also won the declamatory contest, thus making our class champion of the high school. This year we elected the following as class officers: President, Oramel Slireeve: vice-piesident, Helen Lewis: secretary-treasurer, Joe Griffin. For our class advisor we chose Mrs. Turner—and a mighty good one, we'll say! We started tlie social events of the year by giving the Fiosh a Hallow.i n party at the armory. According to repoit this was the most elaborate affair ever given to any Freshman class of D. II. S. We determined, however, at the outset, to do right every task we undertook.

At first the upper classmen took it upon themselves to initiate the Freshmen, but they thought differently when they found that the Freshman class was ready to defend any one of its members. The class was called together, and they elected for class advisor Miss Paulsen : for president, -Miss Flora Brown: vice-president, Elsworfh Wilson; secretary ami treasurer. Miss Eugenia Shanks: and sergeant-at-arms, Clarence Chilson. Omni and white weie chosen as the class colors. The Freshmen took a part in all the activities of the high school. They edited two editions of the Periscope, went out for basketball, football, baseball and track. They also had a debating team, consisting of Paul Van Winkle, Lloyd Foretfce, and Curtis Linnis. The Freshmen have had good times and have done well in their studies during theii first year of high school. Their opinions of high school have changed, and they are now looking forward to their next year. 39 PERISCOPE FRESHMEN CLASS PERISCOPE 40 JScrsancl of Jfrcshmett (£kss Mabel Anderson Jessie Boyd Louabelle Bird Gladys Black Flora Brown Myrtle Barber Alineda Boughton Dorothy Boughton Leonard Black Dan Campbell Jack Chapman Clarence Chilson Marvin Eberting Margaret Friar Janice Fawk Lloyd Forrette Augusta Gerlinger Elone Grant Cleo Guy Arleta Cell Hubert Guthrie Samuel Garner Ted Garrett Jennie Hayes Lean Helms I loyd Holt Ethel Jackson Viola Keller Allison Keeney Edwaiel Kliever Mildred Leighton Quentin Lane A linos Lefors Paul Launer Helen Morrison Golda Martin Carrie Moser Herbert McBee Raymond Miller Wayne Martin Abe Nickol Tina Peters Beula Potter Thomas Phillips Nelia Keasoner Helena Regier Opal Robb Leo Reimann Richard Reimann Ben Reimann Agnes Smith Mildred Schultz Eugenia Shanks Paloma Shepard Dana Sanders Violet Tate Curtis Tennis Jerry Trumbley Paul VanWinkle Keda Watson Earl Wilkinson Charles Wagner Els worth Wilson ■ Carrie Friends Smiles '‘The Hold-up” How interesting: Caugilt in the act Stunt day Coxey army Take that!

Up to this date no organization had existed among the students as a whole, tIre necessary activities being carried on hy special and separate committees and societies. Under this plan only a very limited number could be featured, and as there could 1m no unity of action upon any question, practically all of the responsibility fell upon a few persons. At tin suggestion of t lie faculty and superintendent, “The Associated Student Body” was formed and a constitution was drawn up and adopted in a meeting of students on December 14, 1914. The constitution, which went immediately into effect, provided for tire following officers: President, vice-president, secretary and treasurer, and sergeant-at-arms, and stated that it should consist of all bona fide students who had paid their semester dues of twenty-five cents. The duty of this association was to govern all athletics and activities of tlie high school. This union and centralized control of activities allowed for a more concent!ated attention, and activities increased and were more successful. The officers for this year were elected as follows: President, Halden Grant: vice-president, Alice Crider; secretary-treasurer, Bill Sanders: and sergeant-at-arms, Ross Fletcher. This year has been one of accomplishment and success, as all the debts contracted by the association in the proceeding years have been paid, and everything attempted has been a success. The students have taken unusual interest in athletics and especially basketball. Our school paper has been run on a sound financial basis, due to the energy of the business manager, Eugene Hooker; and it has been of interest and well arranged because of the efforts made by the editor, Lynne Black. This year the students also took a great deal of interest in debate, which is commendable. Beside paying up all back debts, the Student Body bought baseball, basketball, and football material. They also staged a successful carnival which brought considerable money into the treasury. The Student Body was larger this year than in any preceding years, and it is hoped that in the years to come it may function with the success and dignity that befits any such organization. PERISCOPE 44 Grant Crider Sanders Fletchei Turner Black Hooker Tate vLlic Jjxccutiue (Council The Executive Council is one ofthe most Important organizations in the high school, us it discusses various matters of importance which are to tie brought up before the Student B.d.v. The members also vote on all financial questions pertaining to the Student Body. Our present Executive Council has worked with quietness, and has seemed in practical fashion to realize that in order for our Student Body to he one of strength that it must he united and progressive. The members of the Executive Council are as follows: lialden Grant, president of the Student Body; Alice Crider, vice-president; Bill Sanders, secretary and treasurer; Ross Fletcher, se;geant-at-arms; K. R. Turner, superintendent; Lynne Black, editor of the Periscope and annual: Eugene Hooker, business manager of the Periscope and annual; John Tate, athletic editor; and C. A. Arpke, principal. 45 PERISCOPE Assemblies The first Student Body meeting was called October !, 1922, for the purpose of making an amendment to lower the Student Body dues. Walter Voth was unanimously elected athletic manager. The second Student Body meeting, held October 13, was for the purpose of voting on the amendment proposed at the preceding meeting. The amendment carried, which lowered the semester dues from $ 1.00 to 50 cuts. Walter Voth resigned the athletic managership on account of ill-health, und John Tate was elected to fill this vacancy. A motion was made that 1 . H. S. put on a carnival; and Betty Hayfeer was elected veil leader. October . 11 the Student Body voted money for the financing of the carnival. Upon the resignation of the yell leader. Boss Fletcher and Clarence Chilson were nominated to fill the vacancy. Boss Fletcher was elected yell leader by one vote. November 19. 1922. The Student Body meeting of November 20 heralded the election of John Tate and Oramel Shreeves to represent I). H. S. at the Older Boys’ conference; also the beginning of the “Peon Pants’ fuss. The “Peon Pants” fuss came to a climax November 28, when a motion was made for the purpose of prohibiting the wearing of said pants in D. H. S. This motion was killed by a substantial majority. Mr. Coleman was presiding officer at this time. The delegates who attended the conference at Eugene gave their reports December 8, 1922. The Student Body Meeting December 15, 1922, was for the purpose of considering season tickets for students to the basketball games. It was also voted that an uimual be edited. December the 21st, 1922, the football D’s wre awarded. At the Student Body meeting held January 3, 1923, the “Annual” campaign! was started. The Glee club was voted $15 for music, and it was also voted to finance tint president of the Student Body’s and the editor’s trip to attend the convention in Eugene January 12 an amendment regarding the football letter was carried. March 22. 1923, the Student Body voted to send Clara Domaschofsky and Mildred Stafrin as delegates to the Older Girls’ conference in Albany. Ellis Imbler Shreeve Black Belutte The question for debate for this distiict was: “Resolved, That the Philippines should he granted independence without delay.” The affirmative team was composed of Lynne Black, first speaker; and Oramel Shreeves. second speaker. This team was handicapped by their side of the question, as in eight debates in the district only one affi mative team was able to win. The ir final debate, which was with Tillamook, was lost by a two-one decisic n. The second debate was with Beaverton, and which they lost unanimously. The negative team consisting of Homer Kills, first speaker; and Ii ty Imbler, second speaker, deserves much credit, as they won a two-one decision in both debates. It was necessary foi them to debate the Tillamook negative team twice as the second debate was a triangular one. These two boys had a style which pleased the public, and insures them for positions on next year’s debating team. The inter-class debates were worthy of mention. The question was, “Resolved. That a literacy test should be given to all immigrants to the Tinted States.’ The T simian team consisted of Paul VanWinkle, Curtis Tennis, and Lloyd Foriette. The Sophomore team consisted of Homer Kills, Oramel Shreeve. and Warren Dunn. 1 lie Sophomores having tin negative side of the question won a two-one decision. The Junior class was represented by Ray Imbler and Bill Sanders. PERISCOPE 47 PERISCOPE Hi.

Had you managed to get into the dressing room, you would have witnessed a scene of wild disorder—the kind of disorder which can be appreciated only by those who have participated in a production of this kind. Everyone seemed to interfere with everyone else. Every piece of valuable “property” that anyone land down, disappeared as if by magic. Individuals still unmistakably American mingled democratically with orientals and with those whose transformation was as yet incomplete. Gradually, however, those of this last class began to diminish in number, until only one tall Jap remained.

Hi. jS Carnimtl November 23-24-25, 1922 In October of last year the student body was confronted with quite a number of debts that had accumulated throughout a peih.d of several years. The question of how to raise the necessary funds was asked. Different plans were submitted and talked over but finally a Sophomore boy. whom everybody knew but who rarely gave an opinon or made a suggestion, came to the front with a plan which, though it seemed at first to be a big undertaking for us, was finally adopted. Donald Ballantyne had taken part in a successful carnival two years before. And he knew that if the students would get in and work, another and greater carnival could be put across for the benefit of the student body. Hence, his plan. A committee known as the carnival executive committee was appointed. They were Mr Coleman, Donald Ballantyne, and Ross Fletcher. This committee immediately set to work and drew up plans for the big event. They adopted the slogan, “It Pays to Advertise,” and advertise they did ; in Salem, Independence, Monmouth. Falls City and Silverton as well as here at home. The armory was rented for the three nights and every student was pressed into service from the Seniors down to the Freshmen. Booths were erected by the manual training classes under the direction of Mr. Riney. Various groups of students took over these booths and turned them into side-shows, stands and other attractions. The committe planned a main event for each evening. The first night the Walnut City Band of McMinnville was hired to give a band concert. The second evening a group of fourteen boys under the direction of Mr. Coleman gave a big minstrel show. The minstrel show was a big hit. The last night a one-act play called “The Trysting Place” was given by a picked cast from the student body. The cast of characters were: Mrs. Curtiss, a widow............ I-auncelot Briggs................ Jessie Briggs.................... Rupert Smith....................- Mr. Ingoldsby.................... Mrs. Briggs...................... Mysterious Voice ................

A big crowd attended each night, and after all hills were paid tl.e proceed we e large enough to pay all of the student body debts and still leave a substantial sum in the treasury for future use. The carnival was such an enormous success that it will probably be an annual affair to be looked forward to the same as the state fair or the county fair. The people of Dallas supported this carnival far better than was ever hoped for. So from now on it is hoped that D. H. S. will hold her annual carnival each year. R. F. ’23. AfEEEflC PERISCOPE jf mil hall This year was a very successful one in football for Dallas High. Although we were unsuccessful with our games, we wete by no means unsuccessful f.n incialiy. Even though it was muddy and rainy, everyone seemed to take interest in the games just the same and were quite liberal with their loose change. This year we broke in several good players for next year, and we hope to be mo e successful next year than this. There will lie seven a 1 good players drop out on account of being Seniors and graduating in the spring, but we hope to have some good men for their places for the coming year. Much credit is due our manager, Tate, for the financial success ami for the arrangement of games He proved his ability as manager as well as a player who could buck the line hard. MANVlil K JOHN TATE—Weight 174 lbs. Tate has played football two years for D. H. S. and is one of our main standbys. The first year be played end. but his ability to go through the lines made his change to the PERISCOPE 60 lmckfield a great help. He was always Johnny on the spot when the signal was given for him to carry the hall through the line. Everyone was sure the hall was g .In� tluoiigh when Johnny got it. IiURT CURTIS—Weight lfiO lbs. Burt Curtis has been in the football team for three years anil knows all f t’angles in the game. When “Tarzan” has the hall the opposing line men want to get down low because he goes right through regardless of the other fellow. Leave It to Tnr' iin f make line smashes. We are all glad he has another year in high school for we need him BILL SANDERS—Left Half Back—Weight 137 lbs. This was Bill’s firstyear in football, but he certainly knew how to hang onto the little pig skin.” He is short but heavy and you can depend on him to make a hole i i the line no matter how they pile up. We hope we can see him on the field next year with the same fighting spirit. Just watch Bill's smoke next year. FLOYD MacCANN—End—Weight 152 lbs. Floyd MacCann has always turned out for all kinds of athletics, h it this is Ids fir i year he earned a letter for his hard fighting for the I . II. H. team. Mae made an ey -1 lent end because he is tall and can reach above the beads of the others !! • ha« an Me i year to help I). Ii. S. and we all wish him luck. ABE REGIER—Center—Weight 165 lbs. Abe Kegier played center last year which helped a great deal as the sooner the ■ enter can snap the ball back to the quarter the quicker the line can move and in rib- man • Dallas gets a head start onthe opposing team. As Abo is a Senior tie will not be able n, help us out in ournext year’s battKes on the football field. HAROLD CHAPMAN—Right Guard—Wdight 175 lbs. Harold is only a F eshmun, but tl e only doesn't mean he is small because he C m • of our heavy weights on the team. When he gets down on tile line and hits low tie t.o i: them up high, or if he puts his head down he can easily make a hole in the line for the back field to come through. He has three more years to learn the rudiments of f.,otb.m and he has a good start. JACK CHAPMAN—Quarter Back—Weight 158 lbs. Jack Chapman has three more years in Dallas High in which to make a g sal fool kill player. This is the first year Jack has played football and he has certainly made a good showing. In another year he ought to make as good a quarter hack as Da I la ha - seen for a long time. Although inexperienced he evidently has a smc.- ful future a, a football player ahead of him. ALBERT ZENTS—End—Weight 133 lbs. Albert is a freshman who is very energetic in the sports of Dallas High He made ,i wonderful showing in the games that he played fids year and we hope him better luck next year. He will have the experience of this year to help him out and should be in strumeutal in helping D. H. S. win many victories next year. RAY 1MBI.ER—Weight 157 lbs. Bay Irnbler is a player to be proud of, as be showed up excellently. The lar k in experience was a handicap to him. hut lie had a great deal to d w.r.u helping bo.d too opposing teams down. Next year will be his last year in It. II. ,S„ and we wish him the joys of many victories for D. H. S. FLOYD HOLT—Weight 135 lbs. Although Floyd lacked weight and experience, he hIiowmI up very well ami Will undoubtedly make the team next year. The Freshman das should be proud of Floyd, a his 61 PERISCOPE success in football is certain. MARTIN COLE Martin Cole was injured at tlie first of tbe season and thus was rendered unable to continue in the sport, but deserves honorable mention. Those who tried for the team faithfully and practiced with the boys should also he mentioned. Some of these hoys may make the team next year. JOHN ROBINSON—Weight 1«8 lbs. John Robinson will not he with us next year, as he graduates this June. He showed up well on the team and was to he depended upon. John practiced faithfully and helped to keep the spirit of the team up although they lost. He will be missed next year, but his support from the side lines will be appreciated. Kennedy turned out for football this year for the first time. Being light of weight he did not get a chance to show his ability as the opposing teams were all of much heavier build. With the experience and practice of this year he should earn his letters in football next year. The efforts of the coach, Mr. Riney, to make a winning team for I). H. S. is appreciated by the whole school. He was not to blame for the losses and his work with tliie team, which was handicapped by the lack of weight, is not to be forgotten. PERISCOPE 62 Basketball The last two years have been very successful for the basketball team representing Dallas High. The season opened with a good turn-out for this activity and much interest was taken in the game. At first there were four teams and after two weeks of shooting baskets and passing the ball only two teams remained. The two teams played against each other continually for practice, thus the first team received excellent practice. The first team elected Burt Cuitiss. otherwise known as “Tarzan,” captain. Not only was Dallas fairly successful with her games hut also with her money. Large crowds attended the games and all of Dallas stood loyally behind the team. Rase-ball enthusiasts also went with the team to other towns to give the team their support. The first game of the season was played with Falls City on the local floor. Thp Dallas players showed their superiority in all ways. The two forwards showed up well by their shots from all corners of the floor. The guards also showed their ability but as guards they had an easy time. One of them threw some good baskets fro mthe center of the floor. The first game with Monmouth was comparatively easy as the score was .36-13 in favor of our boys. Some of the second team boys got to play in this game and they 63 PERISCOPE showed (ifi unusually well as this was the first time they had received any chance t play in a real frame. January 5, the frame was played In Silverfon. Due to the excess rains and the flooded conditions of the country the hoys experienced some difficulty iu fretting tliiere. The game was fairly fast the first half, the score being 7-5 in Dallas High's favor. However. in the second half the hoys warmed up and the score at the end of the game stood Tti-8 in our favor. Corvallis High School sent her team here January 12. The hoys representing her were of splendid physique and our hoys looked small heside them. However, this was one of our easiest games, as our team outplayed the visitors very easily. Some of the second team also played in this game. Dallas High met her first defeat of the season in the Salem quintet. The game was played on the local floor January 19. Salem had a fast team and at the end of the first half the score stood 10-4 in Salem’s favor. Our boys outplayed Salem in the last half hut did not quite make a winning score. At the end of the game the score was 17-lti itt favor of Salem. This g'ame was probably the most exciting of the season. Dallas High and her old rival. Independence High, clashed mi the local floor January 20. The score stood 14-0 at the end of the first half. The last half was almost a walk-awa.v for our team, although Independence tried hard to keep our hoys from scoring. The final score was 28-10 in favor of Dallas High. The last day in January the Dallas quintet played on the Monmouth floor. This was expected to he an easy game, hut due to sickness, some of the members of the team were handicapped. Monmouth had the beg end of a 12-9 score at the finish of the first half. The last half, however, the team work of our boys was improved and the game became ours by an 18-12 score. Ashland won the state championship the previous year in basketball and. therefore, made a tour in Oregon. They played here February 5 and were the easiest marks our team played against. Our quintet won by a 3 l-fi score. Four of Ashland’s points were made on fouls. The game at McMinnville was a fast one and both teams played their hardest. The teamwork of the Dallas players was an outstanding feature of this season’s playing, and this was responsible for the score of 21-15 in our favor. February 17. Dalla Higli’s quintet journeyed to Oregon City, where they played a fairly easy game. The game was ours by a 4219 score and although we won by such a majority the game was not uninteresting. The Dallas players always like to play at Oregon City because Portland is so near. A hard fought and rough game was played at Independence February 25. Having got Independence’s got once this season, she was out for blood. The score was 11-10 at the end of the first half and 21-19 in our favor at the end of the game. Dallas met the second defeat of the entire basketball season at Salem. Several of the team had not recovered from the Independence game and were really not iu condition to play. The first half was very exciting and both teams were confident of victory. The score then stn stood 17-lti in favor of Salem. The last half Salem outplayed our boys and piled up a substantial score. Our boys at times would seemingly revive the old spiiit and make a few baskets and then Salem would get possession of the hall and make a few also. Salem won a 37-22 score and thus represented the district in the tournament. This was the last game played by the Dallas five. Albert Votli played left and right forward intermittently throughout the season. This is Albert's Senior year, so next year he will not be beie to win victories for D. H. S. He PERISCOPE 64 will be missed by all and the person wlio takes bis place will have to hustle to fill bis place. Albert bad the good luck to drop the ball in the basket seventeen times during the season. Lewis Wick played left and right forward interchangeably with Albert Yoth. He made thirty-four baskets to liis credit, besides several points throwing fouls. Lewis is a Senior this year. As a guard he was hard to beat and be will l� missed next year. Walter Yoth leaves us with the “('lass of ’23.” As center he couldn’t he beat and held that job down steadily until the last game, when, due to injuries received in the Independence game, be was unable to play the entire game. Walter has thirty-three baskets to his credit besides the fouls. It is unnecessary to say that he will be missed too. Orainel Shreeve played left guard most of the season, however, in the Monmouth and Salem games he played left guard. Iiis work as guard was excellent and as this is only his Sophomore year be is expected to do great things for I . H. S. Burt Curtis played right, guard the majority of the season and his work was excellent. He also established a reputation for long shots and has twenty baskets to his credit besides a goodly number of foul shots. Next year will be Burt’s Senior year and he is expected to win many victories for I . H. S. During this season he earned the nickname of Tarzan,” which is probably due to his ability to leap high in the air and place the ball in the basket. Irvine Holman substituted as right forward in the Monmouth, Corvallis, and Independence games, also as right guard inthe second Monmouth game. His work was fine and he will probably hold down a good position on next year’s team, us be is swift and capable. He has five baskets to his credit for this year’s work. Joe Griffin substituted as right forward in the Monmouth game and as left forward in the Independence and Salem games. Although be did not play enough to earn a letter, bis work is commendable. Kennedy Warden. Clarence Chilson, and Ray Syron also deserve mention for their work with the team. Kennedy substituted as left forward in the Corvallis game. Clarence, otherwise known as “Frenchy, showed his colors in the Corvallis gume as a substitute. Kay Syron showed up well as left forward in the Monmouth game. There are others who ought to be mentioned because of their support and good will in turning out for practice. Their loyalty is appreciated, and with the same diligence next year perhaps some of these may play on the first team. In conclusion we hope D. H. S. may b eeven more successful next year in basketball and that every game will be a victory. The loss of three men will be a handicap, but from the material that turned out bis year their places should be capably filled. We hope that the same splendid teamwork may prevail next year and although experience will be lac king, wisdom will keep up the same old spirit. We hope that the same enthusiasm and backing will be received by the team from the Student Body. Last and not least, we hope il.ut we will enjoy the same financial success as this year. 65 PERISCOPE Base lull I WALTER NOTH, s. s. Tradition lias it that Walter Votli played the outfield during his first two years In high school husehall. In his Junior year lie was brought in to first liase. It is to he presumed that he filled tImposition acceptably. On the eve of the first game of the present season he was switched over to slant stop. This move stopped all of the coach’s worry in regard to that position. As this is written it is too ea ly to do anything tmt predict, hut we predict that he will to leading in ah mt everything po ssible—hitting, base stealing, run getting and general effectiveness. Throws and bats right handed. LEWIS WIC K, e. The records do not show how long “Wicksle” lias been catcher. When the present season started lie was accepted as first string leceiver. Too had we cannot have his services for about two more years. Throws and bats right handed. ALBERT VOTH. p.; r. f. A1 played second base previous to this year. Owing to his versatility and hitting ability he was asked to try pitching and outfielding. 11 is work in the two innings that he pitched in the first game easily demonstrated the wisdom of the change. Too laid again that he has no more seasons of baseball for Dallas. Throws and hats light handed. HARRY MIXER—lb. Harry has been chasing flies in the outfield for two years. This year he wal b ought in to play first. In the first game lie played the game like a veteran. When he steps to the tmt the rooters may lie assured that he won't bite at the high ones nor the wides ones and when lie swings he drives the ball fair. He is one of the best men on the team when it comes to looking them over. Throws and hats right handed. GI ORGE GROWN—3b. Geo: go is statting his second year. He was also brought into the infield from the outfield. George is interested in hitting. Any fellow who will buy his own bat and take care of it likes his hits. George wo: ks hard wherever he is put. Bats and throws right handed. DI RT CURTIS—p.; c. f. In these sketches we have started with the seniors. If we were taking them in the o.der of their value to the team Burt’s name would be one of the first two. (Yes, I think so, too.) Burt is very exact in his habits. He started all his athletic activities in in his freshman year. That accounts for his experience. Besides his own ability lie has the faculty of inspiring confidence; e. g.: When Tarzan” is pitching the team fields errorless ball. They can’t hit Burt and that settles it. Get some of the old timers to tell jou about some of his long Hits. On the other hand, his name in the lineup pfc-esents some difficulties. He can’t be both “lead off” man and the “clean up” hitter. Nor can he play tluee positions in the field simultaneously. Outside of that he is very satisfactory. Throws and hats right handed. IRVIN HOLMAN—L f. I vin is a hall hawk and is second to none when it comes to fielding batted balls. PERISCOPE 66 Watch him {to when lie begins to wear spikes and look the ball over the plate. Throws right, hats right. WARREN DUNN—p. Warren is left handed, so lie aspires to he a pitcher. He takes a keen interest in the game, and we predict that he will develop into a smart hall player. Before his graduation we expect him to he a her as a fielding pitcher. The only 100 per cent “south paw on the squad. ORA.MKI. SHREEVE—2b. This makes Oramel’s second year of infielding. He works with equal proficiency at second or third and is always on his toes. Throws right handed: bats left. KENNETH DAY—Utility. Kenneth takes up baseball with his well known seriousness. If anyone heats him to the field, he has probably taken part of the eighth period to get dressed. Right handed throwing and hatting. Shorty would he a regular if it were not for his size. He probably will he anyway before the season is over. Any pitcher that has enough control not to give Shorty a walk may he considered as having control. But did you ever see him field a hall? As “smart” as any player on the squad—only more so. This is the first year Dallas High has ever tried to put out a track team for future events, although we have entered and won many prizes at these meets, and at one time carried off the cup for the highest average of prizes. It is with this bright past that we hope to make the future much blighter with a little practice beforehand. Mr. Riney is coaching this section of summer athletics. Dallas High had a very successful season of basketball under his supervision and the is no doubt that he will be able to turn out a winning track team. He has been out every night to help thb boys, with promptness and a spirit that proves his interest in that sport. It means a great deal to the high school activities to have a coach with the ability to train the boys in the right way. The first night of tiaek practice saw a goodly number of speedy looking young hopefuls dressed in the scant track attire of trunks, a jersey, socks and a pair if shoes. One might think that they would get cold, hut they were immediately told to run around the field to limber up. and it did not take long for them to get quite warm. The teajn has lueu increasing in number and also in speed, as the sore and stiff muscles have become hardened to the strennus woik they are doing. The annual inter-scholastic track meet will he held at Dallas on the 2fith of May, As there will he a la:ge number of the townspeople the high school is very anxious to make an excellent showing. At present the Falls City high school has in their possession the cup which Dallas intends to win at this meet. In this track and field meet (here are various things in which every boy and girl can take part, who is just a little bit interested in spoits of thiskind.
