Text from Pages 1 - 90 of the 1927 volume:

FORWARD S you follow the long, long trail over the hills of life into your land of tomorrow, may this, the 1927 PERISCOPE, oft-times recall for you the happy days, the loyal friendships, and the ideals that have been yours in Dallas High. It is in a sincere attempt to have this keepsake truly reflect the atmosphere and life of the High School that we have made this contribution. To those who have never been a part of the life of the High School, we wish to portray the various activities which reveal the advancement and future possibilities of our School. We wish to express our sincere appreciation to the business men of Dallas for their generous contributions in advertising and their loyalty in supporting our activities. Without this help the Annual could not have been possible. DEDICATION To the Fathers and Mothers who through toil and self-sacrifice have made possible these educational privileges, we, the students of Dallas High School, do most gratefully dedicate this annual. Page 6 PERISCOPE Starbuck Hayter Craven Staats Crider PERISCOPE Page 7 The School Board Dallas is fortunate in the personnel of its School Board. Its members are of the busy and important citizens of our community, l.ocal politics and other such disconcerting affairs have never entered into the election of members to the School Board. Most of the members have served on the board for a number of years and have thus become more and more valuable to the school through their long term of service and more intimate knowledge with the needs of our educational system. Mrs. J. Riley Craven is serving as Chairman of the Board this session and has been a member of the Board for thirteen years. Mrs. Craven gives much time to school matters and takes a deep interest in school activities in general. Mr. Oscar Hayter has been a member of the Board of Education for eight years. He renders a very valuable service to the school in the competent legal advice he gives gratuitously in all school matters. Dr. A. B. Starbuck is serving his third term, this being his seventh year as a member of the Board of Education. Aside from his keen interest in all school matters, Dr. Starbuck is valuable as a member of the board in his excellent advice in all matters pertaining to health and sanitation. Mr. C. L. Crider has been a member of the Board of Education for the past three years. He was first appointed to fill out the unexpired term of Mrs. Martha Belt and last spring was elected for the term of three years. Mr. Crider takes a keen interest in all school activities; is present at every athletic contest and is regarded as the “friend of athletics”. If he has a hobbv, it is physical training. Mr. Tracy Staats has served as Clerk of the Board of Education for fifteen years. Such a record of long service and efficiency speaks for itself. Mr. Harry L. Butz has been a member of the Board for the past three years. While one of the youngest members from point of service he takes a lively interest in all matters pertaining to the school. Due to the recent illness of Mr. Butz. the Periscope Staff was unable to secure his portrait for a cut. That the financial affairs of the school district have been competently administered, is shown in the fact that the district is out of debt, except for the balance due on bonds of the new high school. The bonds are due serially and are being met from year to year. There are no old bonds outstanding, and the district at present is on a cash basis -with no outstanding warrants. Few school districts in Oregon can show such favorable financial conditions.

Page 10 PERISCOPE Page Campbell Boileau Bowe Petre Garrett Layton Miller Student Body Officers The Student Body Association of Dallas High School was organized in 1914 when a constitution was drawn up and adopted in a meeting of the students on December 14. 1914. This constitution, which went into effect immediately after its adoption, provided for the 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. The duty of this association was to govern all athletics and all activities of the high school. This union and centralized control of activities allowed for a more concentrated attention, and activities increased and were more successful. The officers for this year have been as follows: President. Wayne Page; vice president, Charles Campbell: secretary-treasurer. Laura Boileau: and sergeant-at-arms, Rea Miller. I At the beginning of the year, 1926. the Association decided to charge a student body fee of $2.00 instead of the $1.00 which had previously been the amount of the annual dues. This amount entitled the student to a ticket which admitted him to all athletic contests and other affairs given under the auspices of the student body. This system has not proved altogether satisfactory from a financial standpoint and it is possible that a different plan will be worked out for the next year. PERISCOPE Page 11 Turner Whitworth Page Campbell Boileau Bowe Petre Garrett Executive Council Th: Executive Council is a committee that passes upon all expenses incurred by the high school and acts upon all bills presented against the Student Body.

Page 20 PERISCOPE Petre Card Ellis Senior Class History In the fall of nineteen hundred twenty-three, sixty-three valiant Freshmen entered the halls of Dallas High School—wondering Freshmen, timid: yes, even green, but a group who were eager to learn and willing to play the game to the best of their ability. With this spirit of willingness and good fellowship the present Senior class finished its first year of high school life successfully. As Sophomores we drew a new hand and that old, old maxim “Do unto others as you would be done by” was faithfully carried oat by our class mates for the second year students, with all the arrogance of “A little bit of knowledge” attempted to set an example for the rooks and vie for honors with the upper classes. Members of the class began to enter the lists of school activities and the Sophomore-Freshman reception added spice to the social life. The Junior year is often remembered as one of the busiest and the best for at that time the Junior class came into its own. The girls won the inter-class basketball pennant and several of the boys distinguished themselves in the various athletic activities of the school. Willis Balderree was elected president of the class and Miss Pearl Lewis as adviser. Our first play, Anne-What's Her-Name”. furnished a great deal of fun for the cast and was well received by the people of the town. The election of Wayne Page as president of the Student Body and the event of the Junior-Senior reception closed the year and paved the way for renewed honors and activities for our Senior year. At the beginning of our Senior year we found that our class had greatly decreased in size. At the first class meeting we chose Miss Feme Gribbin as class adviser and elected the following officers: Albert Petre, president: Edna Card, vice-president; and Virginia Ellis, secretary-treasurer. The Junior-Senior Class party opened the social events of the year. The Senior class won the inter-class debate, and the basketball team ran the Sophomores a close second. We also won the school championship in the yell contest. Albert Petre disguised as an actress in the class play, The Arrival of Kitty”, coached by the class adviser, added zest to the play and furnished the audience much amusement. Four years in Dallas High School has indeed taught our class the rules of the game. We have learned the “in's and out's” of student association and have faced some of the graver issues o'f experience as well. As a class we have endeavored to play the game squarely and as a class we would like to pass that spirit on to other students of our school.

For our first and probably most difficult year, we elected the following officers: President. Harold Bevens; Vice president, Laura Boilcau; Secretary and Treasurer, Charles Campbell. By the willing and devoted assistance of our class adviser. Miss Magness, and other faculty members we safely weathered this first year, and became Sophomores with our class intact. During our second year, we were guided by the following officers: President. Charles Campbell: Vice President. Harold Bevens: Secretary and Treasurer, Laura Boileau: class adviser. Mr. Pillard. We maintained our good record established in our first year, being represented in athletics as well as in debate and declamatory contests. The reception given the incoming Freshman class by our class proved to be a most successful affair, establishing the Freshmen as our fricnls throughout the rest of the year. As Juniors we proved our real worth to our Alma Mater. We placed seven men on the basketball squad, three of them being first team men, and the others being on the second string. Three of the four men on the tennis team belonged to our class. Five o! the regulars on the baseball team were Juniors, and others were substitutes. We also had one member of our class on the debate team, and many of our members were point winners on the track squad. Our activities were directed by the following officers: President, Jack Forrette: Vice President, Carl Gerlinger: Secretary and Treasurer, Dorothy Page. One of the biggest successes of this year was the play, “Officer 666 , given by the Junior class and coached by Miss Gray, class adviser. We are looking forward with eager anticipation to our Senior year, and hoping that we may exhibit as much pep, enthusiasm and school spirit as we have in the past. SOPHOMORE CLASS PERISCOPE Page 27 LeFors Gerlinger Sibley Bollman Sophomore Class History On a certain rainy day in the year of our Lord nineteen-hundred and twenty-five, forty verdant little Freshmen gazed with awe at the building in which they were to pass four eventful years in trying to pursue that elusive thing, called Knowledge. Starting our first session with the spirit that has characterized us through our two years in D. H. S., we elected Miss Magness, class adviser; Robert Hayter, president; Paul Bollman. vice president: Dorothy Minnich, secretary and treasurer. We Freshmen had a wonderful time at the party given us by the class of '28. We threw a kid party the next semester in honor of the mid-year Freshies. Although they were not bounteously fed, since we ran out of funds, everyone seemed to have a good time. Several of our members were lost at the end of the year in floundering through the Deep River of Final Exams. The next year we lost all our freshness and foolishness and became sophisticated Sophomores. The new Freshmen were shown a few things by our class. At the first of the term we elected officers, as follows: Robert LeFors, president: Bert Gerlinger, vice president; Catherine Sibley, secretary; Paul Bollman. treasurer. Miss Jamie Farmer was elected class advisor, and has proved to be an exceptional coach for the debaters and declamatory speakers, as our representatives won first place. The Reception which we gave for the new Freshmen at the first of the year was a great success and a large crowd was present. During the second semester Margaret Brown entertained our class at her home. We will always remember the good time we had at her party and the artistic paper hats we all made. The Sophomores are prominent in school athletics, as we have members of our class on the high school baseball team, track team, basketball team and football team. Our representatives in the Declamatory Contest, Betty Jelinek and Richard Webb, won first place in their division, and Richard also won the grand sweepstakes gold medal. FRESHMAN CLASS PERISCOPE Page 29 Garrett Lane Freshman Class History The Freshman Class entered D. H. S. with eighty-three members, many of whom came from the country districts. The Sophomore-Freshman reception, held in the high school gymnasium, was enjoyed by all who attended it. The Freshmen were well represented in athletics, as three members of the class made the football team, namely Eldon Vaughn, Bob Griffin and Rook Page. In basketball. Bob Griffin was the only Freshman earning his letter, but in baseball Bob Griffin. Norman Beebe and Ben Garrett received letters. When the Freshman team played Airlie High School the score was 26-4 in favor of the Rooks. One event in Freshman history that many will not forget was “'placing” of two rooks into the creek by the Seniors. The Freshmen then reciprocated by coming out in force and ducking all the Senior boys. Mr. Turner then undertook to clear the trouble between the classes and organized a tug-of-war in which the Freshmen were able to hold their own but lost a few feet of rope, so were compelled to all go through the cold water of the La Creole. FRESHMEN Our high school faculty is the best, With Turner at the head. Not the North, or South, or East, or West, Can say what I have said. Whitworth, the kind and courteous man, Has been principal for four long years. Pillard scolds neither Jimmie or Ann. And causes no one to shed tears. Miss Marcy we chose to guide our class Through our first year in higlf, In English we surely ought to pass. ’Cause Mrs. Van Meter is nigh. There are Gray and Loy and Gribbin. And you know all the rest. Each one deserves a blue ribbon, For they are teachers of the very best.—Leander Quiring. PERISCOPE Page 31 Bowe Turner Petre Pitzer Quiring Harcombe Leitch Peters Campbell Forrette Miller Jelinck Brown Annual Staff After a year's work and planning, the Class of '27 leaves to the long list of achievements of Dallas High School, this seventh volume of the Periscope. We have done our best and know that we have received the best from the students and faculty in cooperation and support. We trust that the 1927 Periscope is a true record of the events that have made the life of the High School dear to every student. We hope that it will be valued and appreciated in the years to come as a remembrance of the happy days under the Orange and the Black. Piage 32 PERISCOPE Card Gribben Campbell Keeney Pillard Mm rich Debate Dallas had a very successful season in debate this year, winning both Polk County and the middle Willamette Valley championships. The debates given by the Dallas teams gave evidence of thoughtful and careful preparation as well as excellent coaching. Mr. Pillard coached the affirmative team and Miss Gribbin coached the negative team. Charles Campbell and Dorothy Minnich comprised the affirmative team; Edna Card and Eunice Keeney comprised the negative team. The question for debate in this district was. Resolved: That Oregon should provide by law for state ownership and operation of the hydro-electric plants. The question for debate in the State was. Resolved: That the Severance Tax should be made a feature of taxation in Oregon. The schedule of debate was as follows: Independence affirmative at Dallas________________________ Jan. 29 (Unanimous decision for Dallas.) Dallas affirmative at Independence________________j_______Jan. 29 (Unanimous decision for Dallas.) - Dallas Negative at Monmouth ______________________________ Feb. 21 (Unanimous decision for Dallas.) Monmouth negative at Dallas ______________________________Feb. 21 (Unanimous decision for Dallas.) Dallas affirmative at Corvallis___________________________March 8 (Two to one decision for Dallas.) Lebanon affirmative at Dallas ____________________________March 8 (Two to one decision for Dallas.) On April 8, Dallas debated with Tillamook, the winner of their district. Dallas upheld the negative side of the question and lost by a unanimous decision to Tillamook. The debate was held under the auspices of Linfield College at McMinnville. PERISCOPE Page 33 Loy E.

The purpose of the club is to develop a better School Spirit and to further the interests of the school in general. A meeting was held and a constitution drawn up and officers elected. The officers elected were Paul Parsons. President: Lawrence Syron, Secretary-Treasurer: and Alfred Loy, Faculty Adviser. Page 34 PERISCOPE Girl’s Athletic Club The Girls' Athletic Club was organized, with Mrs. Van Meter as adviser, September 1926, at which time a constitution was drawn up and a point system for Interclass Athletics was devised. On May, 1927, the girls revised the constitution in order to adopt the Oregon State Physical Education's 50 and 100 point system. A girl winning 50 points receives the State green and white numeral, and upon winning 100 points receives a green and white felt “O”. The G. A. C. endeavors to stress the social side of the girl's school life as well as the athletic by entertaining with a picnic or party once a month. This year a dinner party and picnic were the outstanding entertainments. Co-operation , the G. A. C. motto, is made a reality when the girls aid in school programs, entertainments, pep rallies, and in the rooting sections. This spring the G.A.C. was of great assistance in the May Fete production. PERISCOPE Page 35 Robb Kinney Hinamon Robertson Dennis Beard Ellis Cafeteria (Cooking Class) With the beginning of the school year, September, 1926, a cafeteria course was introduced in Dallas High School. This is the first attempt in work of this character at the Dallas schools, and it has proved very successful. 1 wo advantages are obtained by such a system. It gives the pupils practical experience in preparing and serving menus and at the same time it enables teachers and pupils Irom the Dallas High School to enjoy hot lunches at noon. Since the average price of each meal is about twenty cents, high prices do not prohibit people from taking lunch at the cafeteria. Margaret Beard. Carolyn Ellis. Mary Hinamon. Lillian Robb. Ruth Dennis, Edith Robertson, and the instructor. Miss Geneva B. Kinney, comprise the cafeteria staff. It is the girls’ duty to plan the menus a week in advance, and to prepare the lunch. The duty of the instructor is to look over the menus submitted by the pupils and select the best ones for use. I he sewing room which adjoins the cooking department is used for the dining room. The cafeteria has proved very successful and it is hoped that the course, which is so convenient for everyone, will continue from year to year. Page 36 PERISCOPE Holsclaw Penner Hatton Syron Mehl Staats Garrett Harrington Hereth Parrish Shop The plan of the vocational co-operative shop vvo.k as given in Dallas High School is unique. It is said to be the only one of its kind in any pub', ic school west of the Mississippi river. Instead of the usual school shop where the various p.oblcms worked out by the boys are of a hypothetical nature, here at Dallas the boys are given a training of a much more practical nature. This is made possible by the valuable co-operation of Mr. Carl Gerlinger of the Gerlinger Locomotive and Machine Works. The boys who take this vocational work are placed in the various departments of the machine shop under the careful, competent and practical supervision of the foremen in the shop. In his two years course each boy is given training and experience in each department—drafting, molding, pattern making, etc. This gives opportunity for each boy to prove his aptness for the line of work to which he is by natural endowment best fitted. After the boys have had two years of this practical training they are given regular employment in the shop. Under the plan as worked out here at Dallas the boys spend one-half day in the shop oberving regular shop work. The other half day is spent in the high school in the usual required classes in Civics. English and American History, together with the class in applied Shop Mathematics. The latter class is under the tuition of Mr. Fairfax Parrish, who supervises the boys both in the shop and in the related work in high school. The plan is working out excellently well and is attracting the attention of school men over the state. PERISCOPE Page 37 Page Card Boughton Miller Staats Petre Young Pitzer Woods Senior Class Play On the evening of April 1, the Senior play. “The Arrival of Kitty, was given in the High School Auditorium. If there were any who feared for the success of the play, they were soon reassured by the hearty applause of the audience. The members of the cast were all very well suited to the difficult character parts assigned to them, and as a result some very good acting was accomplished. Much credit should be given to Miss Gribbin for her excellent coaching.

Dorotha Young and Almeda Boughton, escorted to the T hrone by the Queen’s subjects, were entertained with gay and graceful dancers of the May Fete. The snow man, Clven Bowe, and his retinue of snow sprites and icicles, were attacked by the harbingers of spring. After a spirited snow balling the snow man and his hosts retreated and spring advanced. Trees, roses, butterflies, bumblebees and frogs in turn took the center of the scene and welcomed the Queen of Springtime. A group of high school girls appeared as folk dancers and wound the Maypole as the final scene. The Queen then marched back across the campus with all the participants in the pageant joining the procession. The campus was hemmed in by an artificial hedge of trees with the Queen’s bower at the northern edge making a very pretty setting. The embankment around the field was lined with people who came to view the pageant. The entire showing was a praiseworthy one, and quite up to the standard set last year by the first pageant. Mrs. Thomas Van Meter of the high school faculty was in charge of arrangements with a corps of faculty assistants. Page 40 PERISCOPE Declamatory Contest On Tuesday evening. May 10. a high school declamatory contest was held, the purpose of which was to raise funds to help the athletic department.

S. typing team again won the County Championship title, making this the third consecutive year that the cup has been awarded to our typists. In the advanced division the race for the individual award was very close between the two D. H. S. representatives, but Edna Pitzer averaged one-third of a word more that Virginia Ellis and thus was awarded the gold medal. Their respective rates of writing were: Edna sixty-four and fourteen-fifteenths words per minute, and Virginia sixty-four and nine-fifteenths words per minute. In the beginning division there was a close three-cornered race between Dallas, Monmouth, and Falls City, the Dallas team averaging forty and one-half, Falls City Forty, and Monmouth thirty-nine and one-half. However, the individual award, the gold medal in the division went to Genevieve Ganaird of Monmouth, who averaged four-fifteenths of a word more than Jacob Quiring of Dallas. The respective scores were: Miss Ganaird 40 13 15: Jacob Quiring 40 9 15 and Miss Hammel of Falls City 40 8 15. The following is the team average for each contesting school: Dallas ___________________ 53 Falls City______________ . 43 Monmouth __________________40 Independence_________________35 D. H. S. was represented by Edna Pitzer, Virginia Ellis. Jacob Quiring. and Carolyn Ellis. The students of the typing department contribute their success largely to the inspiring influence of Mrs. Turner, as well as to her excellent teaching. Page 42 PERISCOPE Patterson Martin Quiring Butler Morningstar Gerlinger Weins Singleterry Plummer Orchestra The orchestra is under the direction of Miss Bernice Morningstar and consists of nine pieces. Although most of the players are inexperienced they are capable of furnishing an interesting program. The orchestra delivered some very good numbers between acts of the Senior and Junior plays. Yell and Song Leaders Dallas Hi has finally developed a well organized rooting section, and although in numbers it may have been surpassed in some former years, in volume there is nothing lacking. Our leader. Rollan Layton, takes a keen interest in his duty, and it is largely due to his stimulating influence that the response this year is so hearty. During the winter, Rollan (“Tubby”) was ably assisted by Bud Page and when they dolled-up for a game presented quite a “collegiate” appearance. Page 44 PERISCOPE Kearney Vaughn D. Page Campbell Bevens Hatton Layton Garrett McBee Page Bowe E. Hayes Parrish Folmer Griffin Penner Fleming Syron Staats H. Hayes Loy Holt Football One of the best football teams ever to represent D. H. S. was developed this year. The team won 5 out of the 8 games played, one of the defeats being handed out by the Pacific University freshmen, and another by the Oregon Normal School. Amity was the only high school to defeat Dallas, winning by a 14 to 0 score. Five times Dallas advanced to their opponents 10 yard line, but each time they were held for downs. For the first time in three years Dallas defeated her ancient rival. Independence, by the unusual score of 2 to 0. Dallas scored when an Independence punt hit the crossbar of the goal post and bounded back to Becken of Independence, who was downed behind the goal line. Prospects for next season are exceptionally bright, as we are losing only four regulars from this year's championship team. When the call is issued by Coach Loy for candidates next fall many new men, who failed to turn out this year, will be ready to go out and ably fill the four vacant positions. A squad of 18 men was carried throughout the season, all members of which made their letters. The team: Wayne Page—Captain and quarterback. Third year. “Wag’’ will be missed when the next call is issued for candidates. He was a heady general and his position will be hard to fill. George Parrish — Second year. Left tackle and the heaviest man on the team. George will also be missed next year, since he graduates. I hiltp Staats First year. Left guard. Phil did not earn a regular berth PERISCOPE Page 45 until mid-season, but when he did. Oh My! Too bad he graduates! Howard Hayes—Third year. Right tackle. Hayes was a bulwark of strength on the defense, and opened big holes for Dallas when on the offensive. Hayes playtTd three years with us and will be keenly missed next fall. Henry Garrett—Center. Third year. “Hank” was the mainstay of the team on offense, and a bulwark of strength on the defense. He is a three-year letterman, and has one more year to serve D. H. S. Gerald Hatton—Right guard. First year. Hatton was another one who was overlooked at the beginning of the season, but he finished as a regular member of the team. He has one more year of action. Albert McBee—Right end. Third year. “Mac” could play end or half-back, but in either position he spread terror among his opponents. He will be back for one more year. Lawrence Syron—Left end. Second year. “Sy”. although small, was one of the fastest men on the team and was exceptional at his position. He will be back for another year with us and much is expected from him. Rollon Layton—Left halfback. First year. This was Tubby's first year on the team, and throughout the season he was the most consistent ground gainer. He will be with us again next year. Howard Fleming—Right halfback. First year. Fleming came from Nebraska, and was not here to start the season. But he soon earned a regular berth when he did get started. He has one more year for Dallas. Donald Page—Fullback. First year. “Rook” was our line-plunging mainstay. Whenever a few yards were needed he could be depended upon to get them on a line smash. He will be with us for three more years. Sam Bowe—Left guard. Second year. Sam, a regular from the ’25 team, was deposed by some “younger blood”, but he got into most of the games, and kept the regulars fighting to hold their places. This was also Sam’s last year. Ed. Hayes—Right guard. First year. Ed. ably filled any vacancy left in the regular team. This was his last year. Robert Griffin—Quarterback. First year. Bob was handicapped by lack of weight, but in his next three years of service much is expected of him. Eldon Vaughn—Right tackle. First year. Vaughn went into action with all caution thrown to the winds. He will be a regular for the next three years. Abe Penner—Left tackle. First year. Abe showed real ability in all the games he broke into. He has one more year left. Charles Campbell—Right end. First year. “Chuck” showed great ability in breaking up end plays, and snagging passes. He will be with us for one year more. Harold Bevens—Left end. First year. Bevens was handicapped by illness for most of the season, but when he was in the game he was always fighting. He has one more year. Page 46 PERISCOPE Forrette Fleming Gerlinger Loy Garrett Holt Syron McBee Page Parsons Griffin Basketball When Coach Loy issued a call for basketball candidates over thirty men turned out, and among them were four who formed the nucleus of the team. During the season twenty games were played, Dallas winning eighteen of them. Incidentally, the two games that we lost went to Perrydale, the county champion team. Independence was defeated in both games, something which has not been done for three or four years. Dallas scored a total of 464 points to her opponents 320. McBee was high point scorer with 120 points, and Syron was second with 107 points. Prospects for next season are exceptionally bright, since Page is the only regular graduating this year. Those who received letters are: Page, Parsons, Syron, McBee, Griffin, LeFors, Forrette, Garrett, Gerlinger and Fleming.

Four matches were played outside of the county tournament. Dallas winning two and losing two of the matches. Albany was defeated twice and Corvallis and Salem each defeated Dallas once. In the county tournament Dallas played and defeated Perrydale to reach the semifinals. Her next opponent was Independence, and, although the boys defeated the Independence boys, they lost the match because of the greater ability of the Independence girl players. The Dallas girls were handicapped by lack of practice, and they were all new and inexperienced players. In this match the Dallas boys won 10 out of 1 8 games played, but the Independence girls defeated the Dallas girls, giving them the match by a margin of six games. Independence later defeated Bethel to win the county cup. Competion for places on the team was exceptionally keen, and it took about three weeks to play off the games that decided the winners. Forrette won the play-off, and was the No. 1 player throughout the season. Gerlinger held down second place, and McBee and Page were third and fourth men respectively. Barbara Hall was ranking player on the girls’ team, with Elaine Schultz as second player and Dorothy Page as third. They were all new players and will be expected to help Dallas win the cup back next year as Elaine Schultz is the only player graduating. Page is the only man to be lost to next year’s boys’ team, but there will be plenty of material from which another man can be picked. PERISCOPE Page 49 Track For some reason the students of Dallas High School have never taken a very keen interest in track, and this year has been a pioneer year, as far as any organization of track is concerned. However, the fact that the team did exceptionally well, will no doubt stimulate interest and better work will result from year to year. Independence walked off with most of the honors and took the cup with a score of 68' 2 points: Dallas scored and Monmouth 37. Parrish of Dallas was high point man of the meet, scoring 18J4 points. Barnum of Independence was second with I6J 2 and Davis of Monmouth third, with 15. Fleming, McBee, Parrish, Page, Syron, Ross, Bevens and Lefors all won honors for Dallas. Parrish and Page are the only ones graduating and the prospects for next year are very good. Dallas placed first in the shot-put, in the 120 low hurdles, in the 220 yard dash, and in the relay, and tied for first in the high jump. Page 50 PERISCOPE Loy Beebe Campbell Penner LeFors Kliever Miller Fleming Griffin Syron Forrette Bevens H. Garrett B. Garrett Blodgett Quiring Baseball With Bevens and Garrett, veteran battery, as a nucleus, Coach Loy set about to build up a championship baseball team. Much promising material turned out for the first practice sessions, from which five men were to be picked to fill in the vacancies left by graduation from last year's team. Out of 10 games, Dallas won 7, losing to McMinnville, Independence and the Normal School. Incidentally, each of the teams which defeated Dallas was in turn defeated by Dallas. One shut-out game was registered by the team, and the teams which defeated Dallas won by just one run margins. This year's team will be back intact for next season, and with the experience gained should go thru next year's schedule undefeated. The team, all members of which earned their letters, was composed of Garrett, catcher; Bevens, pitcher and second baseman; Griffin, shortstop; Ben Garrett, first base-man; Syron, second baseman and pitcher; LeFors. third baseman; Fleming, outfielder and pitcher, Forrette, outfielder; and Beebe, outfielder. Campbell was substitute first baseman, and Penner, Blodgette and Miller subbed for the outfield. PERISCOPE Page 51 The batting averages of the team members were compiled throughout the season, and many members were hitting well above the 300 mark. Fleming led the hitters with a 400 average, with Beebe, Bevens, and Forrette all hitting in the 300 class. As the annual goes to press the county championship is not yet decided. Dallas and Independence are going to play off for the cup, since both teams lost but one game during the season. Dallas defeated Independence by an 8 to 7 score, and Independence defeated Dallas by a 4 to 2 score. The two teams are very evenly matched, and the team getting the breaks will become the proud possessor of the cup.

Throughout the evening entertaining and interesting games were played, and the Freshmen, who came to the party with some fear and trembling, soon were reassured that nothing inadvertent was to occur, and entered enthusiastically into the activities. After dainty refreshments were served the Freshmen departed, hoping that they could give “as good a reception as this, next year. Open House Open House was held Thursday, February 17, at the Senior High School, for those who wished to look over the school building. At 8 o’clock a program, consisting of speeches and musical numbers, was given in the new auditorium. The speeches were given by Oscar Hayter, R. R. Turner, S. E. Whitworth, Wayne Page and Charles Campbell. The music was furnished by the Junior High Girls, Alice Wiens, Miss Bernice Morningstar and Miss Laura Kearney. Immediately following the program punch and wafers were served in the Domestic Art room and members of the Girls' Athletic Club escorted the visitors over the building, introducing them to the teachers in the different rooms. It is estimated that almost 500 people were present. Girls’ Athletic Club Dinner Party The Girls’ Athletic Club party was held Feb. 25, 1927. Several committees were elected for the different phases of entertainment, and all did their work well. Half of the members came dressed as men and were escorted by their respective partners to the party. Although most of the men were somewhat feminine in their appearance they proved to be gentlemen of society. Dinner was served by groups of girls who volunteered to be waitresses. The table was decorated with orange and black streamers and small paper basket-balls at the end with the girls' names on them for place cards. The center pieces were kewpie dolls dressed to represent the last year’s basketball team. Jokes and stories were told, songs were sung by all, and the teachers were requested to tell about the most embarrassing moment in their school life. After the bounteous dinner the party adjourned to the auditorium where a short program was held, following this a noisy and hilarious game was held between the “boys and girls, which ended in favor of the “boy.’’s PERISCOPE Page 53 Football Banquet The girls of the first year cooking class, under the supervision of Mrs. Staats. gave a dinner to the football squad December 16, 1926. The table and sewing room, in which the banquet w'as held, was artistically decorated in orange and black. The table was decorated to represent a football field. The yard lines were of orange streamers and the goal posts were of the colors of the Dallas-Independence teams. A center piece was a football with the Independence and Dallas score on it. The men on the school board and the men teachers were the invited guests. Talks and stories were told about football and other school activities, and the affair proved so enjoyable that the boys are already looking forward to the next “get-together.” Periscope Benefit Dance Dr. and Mrs. V. C. Staats. Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Soehren, Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Sundberg, and Mr. and Mrs. C. S. Keller sponsored a Periscope Benefit Ball that was held on Friday evening. May 13. in the Woodman Hall. The hall was simply but prettily decorated with bouquets of spring flowers and fir boughs and the Starr’s Melody Men furnished the music. There were about seventy-five couples present and about thirty-five dollars were cleared and turned over to the Periscope Staff. School Board Dinner On Tuesday evening. May 17. occurred the annual dinner party that is given by the Domestic Science Department to the members of the School Board. The purpose of the dinner is to give the girls of the department practical experience in cooking and serving, and is always very much enjoyed by those who are able to be present. A pink and green motif was beautifully carried out and was greatly appreciated as all the decorations were made by the girls themselves. Among those present at the dinner were: Dr. and Mrs. A. B. Starbuck, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Butz, Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Hayter. Mrs. Riley Craven, Messrs. C. L. Crider, Tracy Staats and R. R. Turner, and Dr. and Mrs. V. C. Staats. The girls who cooked and served the dinner under the direction of Miss Kinney were: Betty Jelinek, Betty Harcombe, Margaret Brown, Gladys Skinner, Dorothy Min-nich, Catherine Sibley, Ruby Fleming. Tillie Wuerch. Lucile Patterson, Dorothy Singleterry. Roberta Elliott, Gladys Plummer. Marie Hayes, Laura Marsh. Annie Laing, Myrtle Daniels, Hazel Fields, Audry Converse, Roberta Woodman, and Alda Dennis. In Appreciation In expressing our appreciation of those who have made possible the publication of the 1927 Periscope, there comes first to our mind the Class of 1926. At the beginning of their Senior year there were several large bills outstanding Page 54 PERISCOPE against the Student Body. Among those bills was an unpaid balance of over $150 on the Annual that had been issued by the Class of 1924. The Class of 1926 very graciously and unselfishly put aside their own desire to issue an annual and bent their efforts to clearing up these old debts. The close of the session last year found the Student Body entirely out of debt. This favorable financial condition thus made it possible for the Class of 1927 to undertake to issue this volume of the Periscope. The Class of 1927 is therefore not unmindful of how well and unselfishly the Class of 1926 bore itself. Indeed, the Class of 1926 will be remembered as one of the outstanding classes graduating from Dallas High School. Not only is it the largest class that has so far been graduated but it is a class whose members are remembered for their high standard in scholarship, their efficiency in doing well whatever they undertook and the fine class spirit and school spirit always shown in school activities. “The Eighth Period” The eighth period is an innovation of the present session and seems to be working out well. On Thursday and sometimes on Tuesdays it is used for assembly purposes and also is a time for student activities, such as play practice, orchestra practice, etc. One of its chief purposes is as a supervised study period. With each Monday there is posted a list of pupils who have not done satisfactory work during the preceding week. They are required to report to the teacher designated for study. Under this system there seems to be a betterment in the average work being done by the student as no one wishes to have his name posted in the scandal sheet” or opportunity list” as it is variously called.

There was a group of greedy politicians in the far East who longed to make themselves rich. They decided to sail for South America and try to see how much of the jungle they could explore because a large prize was offered to the person who could map the surrounding region of the Amazon river. They would have to go only one hundred miles inland or maybe less because there was supposed to be a wild race of cannibals there, who were quite hungry at times. Now the characters of these men were about the same except for one man. This one man was in the expedition because he was broken hearted. He had fought a duel for a very beautiful woman then she wouldn't have him for committing a murder. He then lost his temper and kissing her goodbye (this probably made her madder) he left for parts unknown. The other five men were of various races: a Spaniard. Senor Wop: a Chinaman, Mr. PeeWee; a Norwegian, Mr. Salmon: and a high lord, Mr. Cliff, and the broken hearted man, Mr. Francois Bertand, a Frenchman. These men landed at the mouth of the great river and there made preparations for the inland trip. It was decided to divide everything: food, guns, clothes and everything that was needed for the trip and then afterward they would divide the prize, providing PERISCOPE Page 57 that they got it. But there was crooked work. The Chinaman stole a large quantity of noodles so that if they ran out of food he wouldn’t starve. Mr. Salmon, the Norwegian, stole a case of canned sardines to make sure that he wouldn't go hungry. The high lord, Mr. Cliff, made sure he wouldn't get cold by taking a large fur coat, hat, and fur lined boots. While the Spaniard. Mr. Wop, got hold of a bottle of strychnine. He was going to poison the whole bunch after they got out in the jungle and then take the prize for himself. The Frenchman was unsuspicious of his comrades. He thought that they were honest. The party was out in the jungle for a month when they ran out of food The Chinaman crawled away one night from the camp and ate the noodles he had stolen, but they did not agree with him and he died soon afterward. The high lord's hot clothing, he had stolen, drove him crazy with the heat, and he wandered off into the underbrush. The cannibals probably got him. The Norwegian, Mr. Salmon, ate the fish he had stolen arid they were spoiled or something was wrong with them because they killed him. The Spaniard and the Frechman were the only people left. The Spaniard was going to poison the Freshman,, so he put the poison in a glass of water. He thought that the Frenchman would drink it, but the Frenchman was not thirsty. They went to bed that night and some time in the night the Frenchman awakened to hear the Spaniard howling for water. He went over to his bedside. He soon discovered that the Spaniard had a high fever. The Frenchman saw a glass of water sitting on a box in the tent. He got this and gave it to the Spniard, not knowing it had poison in it. The Spaniard soon died. The Frenchman decided to get out to the mainland right away. On the way out he mapped the surrounding country so well that his prize was doubled. He also found the woman who had been so mad at him—waiting for him. Of course, they got married and had many battles ever after. E. V. '30. A PARODY ON THE HIGHWAYMAN The car moved by in the moonlight, along the dusty street. The moon cast a ghostlike shadow, on the Ford on its mission sweet. The road, a pathway of darkness, led to her parlor door. And her boy friend came rattling— Rattling—rattling— Her boy friend came rattling, thrilled to the very core. Up on the driveway he rattled and stopped in the girl's front yard. He pressed with his hand on the horn, but the house seemed locked and barred. He whistled like a bird at the window, and who should be waiting there But his sweetheart’s cross, old father— The banker, his sweetheart's father— Smoldering and red with anger, at the lover's nerve and dare. “Away”, said the harsh old father. “The flower you seek is gone. She left with a lad of my choosing, a fellow of brains and brawn”. Young lips quivered in the moonlight, on a face of ashen grey. He'd lost his only sweetheart— His blond-haired, blue-eyed sweetheart. He jumped in his Ford in the door-yard and rattling rode away. O. B. '28. Page 58 PERISCOPE IT DOESN’T REALLY MATTER It doesn't really matter, teacher If you have brains, 'tis said. Cause it's more important, far If you just have a head. Most every other day, teacher As on the street one goes; Men do not look at women's heads, They just look at their pose. I have thought a lot, teacher And I wonder just why— We have to have our lines, teacher. Or red marks we will spy. 'Tis a sad and cruel world, teacher Our whole life is a head. Sometimes in English when I'm dumb; I wish that I were dead. So it doesn’t really matter, teacher, When these lines you have read. Whether they are from my brains— Or just lines from mv head. E. F. S. '26 Last night as I sat by the fire, I was having a dreadful time. For though I thought for the longest while; I could not make a rhyme. Then I was inspired by sudden thought, Swiftly I wrote till a poem was wrought; So to all the would-be poets here, I write this little verse Don’t give up if your poem looks bad.
