HIS is Station E-H-S broadcasting bedtime stories. Now listen,
children!
Many years ago 168 boys and girls broke loose from their mothers'
apron strings, and set forth to explore Wisdom's universe.
After wandering for eight years in they land of Readin', 'Ritin,, and 'Rith-
metic, footsore and weary, yet joyful, they came to a fork in the road. As
they paused there, wondering which way to go, a big lfVhite monster emerged
from the darkness. Under his arm he carried a bundle of neatly-rolled, ribbon-
tied documents.
The children trembled in awe. " Fear not," said the White monster, " I
am your friend. I have come' to present you with a reward for your eight
years of struggle. QProfessor Vlfhite presents diplomasj Seek ye further
knowledge? "
" Yea! Yea! " they chorused, 168 strong.
" Then follow this road till you come to the castle of Learning. You
will know it by the letters E. H. S. carved above the door."
Thanking the monster for his interest, the group trudged on. Arriving
at the castle they were greeted by the gate-keeper. " We come in search
of Educationf, they said to him. " The big White monster at the cross-roads
directed us to your castle."
" Have you passports? " asked he.
" Oh, yes! Here they are! " shouted the children Qhanding the gate-
keeper their diplomasj.
VVith a creak and a groan, the big iron door swung open. " Enter," said
the gate-keeper, " but mind ye, the castle is inhabited with bugaboos. Some
of them may say to you, ' Thou shalt not passf But you need fear no harm
from these bugaboos after you once learn to handle them. Chemistry, one
of the most ferocious, can easily be tamed when you learn how to juggle
test-tubes and beakers, and to erect' formulas, such as H20 and the like. If
you angle it right, the Geometry bugaboo will not trouble you either."
Puzzled and awed, yet undaunted by these Words, the youthful knowl-
edge seekers courageously entered, and were immediately conducted to the
ruler of the castle, Lord Goble.
" Ha! Ha! " said Lord Goble. " XVhat a handsome, intelligent company!
1 feel honored at having you come to dwell in my castle. My courtiers are
at your service. Drink as abundantly as you wish at my fountains of
Wisdom. I ask only that you obey the laws of the court.

"Yonder rooms are piled full of knowledge. If you would master the
Latin tongue, enter Room No. 312. In No. 318 you may learn to gargle in
French.
" Now let me tell you a bit about the customs of the castle. For the
first year you will be called Freshies. Each year a new title will be con-
ferred upon you if you have faithful been. In four years you may earn the
rank of Graduate.
" You must now choose which paths of learning you will follow. Choose
wisely, study diligently, and stick to your course."
Two years elapsed, after which the title of Junior was bestowed upon
this noble band. They chose leaders from their group to pilot them. For
Lord High Executive, Paul Romeis was their choice. Next in rank came
Freeman Kadowg for Scribe, Gertrude Carbaugh. These sturdy Juniors,
clothed in royal robes of Maroon and Cream, soon became the talk of the
castle.
It was discovered that they possessed rare talents, so Lord Goble sum-
moned them before him to perform. He was pleased and proud of the drama-
tists in " Daddy-Long-Legs " and " Clarence," and he called again and again
for the band and orchestra. Often his ravings were calmed by the beautiful
prima donna Eloise.
The third year soon passed, and our little band of knowledge seekers be-
came known as Seniors, donning the mantle of dignity and supremacy be-
fitting that title.
They entered with zest upon this fourth and last year. New leaders
were chosen. The highest in rank, Alvin Hameister, was one distinguished
not only for his wisdom, but for his sinew and muscle as well. He was
chosen from the footfall squad, of which he was captain.
Others in rank were John Leach, next highest, and Ethel YVaterson,
Scribe. Q
Under these leaders the Seniors performed many noble deeds. Their
Student Council rode forth on snow-white steeds to conquer mole-hills and
right wrongs.
In football and basketball their noble knights were unsurpassed.
Now, my children, this little band of girls and boys have grown tall.
lVith their heads crammed full of knowledge, and theirhearts filled with
joy and gratitude toward Lord Goble and his noble courtiers, who have made
their stay in the castle so pleasant and profitable, they are about to disband
and go their various ways. Some of them will enter larger castles of Learn-
ing, while others will seek adventure in the world of Business. Their names,
many times engraven on the Honor Roll at the castle of E. H. S., may some
day be broadcasted throughout the world, because of their success and
achievements.
Here comes the Sandman, children, so Good-night!
Station E-H-S is signing off, after broadcasting bedtime stories. Good-
night.

The end has come, time to part is here,
Forgotten soon the school days that are o'er,
But friendships which our memory will hold dear,
Are left to us of all that's gone before.
For four long years as classmates we were true
To old E. H., the one we loved so well.
The dauntless spirit of our faithful few
To all tlhe world our record did foretell.
The throbbing pulse of all-enthralling youth,
A class of boundless spirits calmed by fearg
Forbodc a glowing future and in truth,
Well pictures us as Freshmen that first year.
Sophomores as champions were unrivaled,
Tho' 'gainst the strongest foemen they were
On eacfh occasion coming off belaurcled-
For sterner battles thus becoming fitted.
pitted,
Right merrily we greeted Junior friends,
Inditferent to Sophomores rough and rude,
Attentive then to gain our separate ends,
Forgotten too each petty spite and feud.
Seniors each, how great we thought the name
As we began our toilsome upward climb,
A high and lofty purpose was our aim-
To stamp improvement on the wings of time.
Oft to the task our willing backs we bentg
Full many were the lessons conquered there:
Each mastered trouble, a new strength was lent
For meeting squarely trials everywhere.
For us no more the breezy high-school yell,
No more we meet to give our class a cheerg
For us no more the pealing schoolhouse bell,
Something dirns my eyesight-'tis a tear.
Now from the past a message seems to come
To bring sweet solace to our minds' unrest:
" Fret not, my children, for life's busy hum
Is but the mingling of the song and jest!"
Now gleams the brilliant future on our view,
And to our sight a wondrous promise holds,
VVhen hope grows faint our courage to renew
And 'round our hearts a wave of cheer enfolds.
Full many a man of genius great and rare
Is born unknown in regions far remote:
Among our classmates in Life's thoroughfare
Oft we will wonder, Is there one of note?
Let not proud station mock our lowly place,
Our humble ways our destiny obscure,
To be unknown, my friend, is no disgraceg
Renown from paths of honor might allure.
Now, part we must, tho' parting gives us pain,
The world is calling allg we too. must gog
Strive on, dear comrade, thru the rain,
Remember well-men harvest as they sow.
A heritage I fain would leave each one,
Our space is short, l'Man's life is but a span,
So live thy life from dawn to set of sun
That all shall say, 'He lived and died a Man."'

N January and June of 1921 several hundred students met the require-
ments of the Board of Education and were handed passports which
allowed them to take passage on the good ship E. H. S. for a four-year
cruise on boundless " Sea of Training."
We were known as the Class of '25 and bore the distinction of being
the largest group of passengers ever taken on board since that well-known
vessel was launched. We chronicled no events of much importance in the
first year of our voyage, but in our second year out we developed the ability
along all athletic lines which has enabled our class to be well represented
in the champion and near champion teams of the present year H9241 We
were the first class to present to the public a Sophomore Class Play. Miss
Carr must be given due credit for the success of this production.
The third, or past year of the cruise has been more eventful than those
preceding. The superior officers of E. H. S., feeling that we had now gained
sufficient knowledge to wisely " paddle our own canoe " allowed us to select
three officers to pilot our craft through the year. VVe elected Clayton Stone
to serve as Captain, Oswald Hill as Commander and Amy Salmons as Purser.
The selection of navy blue and camel as class colors was carried out in
sweaters. A movie and sleighride were sponsored by us and both proved
successful.
VVith the cooperation of the Class of '24 we succeeded in bringing back
to E. H. S. the school dances discontinued over a year ago and to inaugurate
a Student Council.
The class was more than well represented in football, basketball, and
track. Herbert Hill, one of our number, has been elected as captain of both
football and basketball teams for next year Q1925j. This is a signal honor
for the class, as it is seldom that one man has the ability to pilot two school
teams.
The Junior Class Play " The Seven Keys to Baldpate " was successfully
given on May 20th under the capable supervision of Miss Helen Welty.
The Prom given by us with the Senior and E men as guests took place
on the evening of May 29th.
Our year's social activities wound up with a picnic at Crystal Lake in
early June.
Our boat has again entered port and "leaves of absence " have been
granted all passengers until next September.

N September 4, 1923, one hundred fifty-four dignified students hurried into 211
and donned the new name of Sophomore. Why should 'they feel stuck-up?
Now, they could boss and look down on 'the Freshies. What fun it was to see
them scurrying around trying to locate themselves!
As soon as the call came for men to play on the football team, a large number
signed up. Of course. the pile diminished somewhat, but a few remained throughout
the season.
In basketball, the captain and a large portion of the players came from the tenth
grade. One boy's efforts gave him the opportunity of following fthe team, as a sub,
to the state championship and later to Chicago when they were runners-up for the
National title.
The girls were not as successful as they could have been, but they did not care
to see the Seniors and Juniors weep land moan just because they were not able to
defeat their lower classmen. Besides, the Sophs wanted to be very courteous to
them since they will soon be leaving E. H. S.
We fhave not taken an active part in baseball, but succeeded in getting along
pretty well in the track meet, considering the number of men who "tried out."
We feel sure 'tfhat we ought to gather a collection, donfations, pledges, have a
sandwich sale, or do something to get up a fund so that we can present Earl Tenny
with a prize of some sort to show that we appreciate his faithfulness in attending all
the games. Perhaps the school would not care to back the proposition.
In the middle of the school year we welcomed a large number of new Sophomores
to help us to enjoy our name.
VV'hen we heard about the ninth and tenth grade reading contest, we felt sure
that we could get something, so we sent Verona Nolting as one of our contestants.
Of course she read her way to first place. VVe nearly had a stiff neck the next day
because of our 'haughtiness the day before. but we managed to survive.
Sometime during the first semester was organized a Junior Latin Club under
the capable supervision of Miss Purkiss and Miss Pierce. The other club would not
admit us, so we just decided to show t'hem that they could not keep us off the map.
Because of their brilliancy a large number of French and Spanish 'students were ad-
mitted to Le Cercle Frlancais and Los Estomidos.
We feel sure that some Dantes, Farrars, Carusos, or Galli-Curcis will be found
among those from our class who play in the band or orchestra and sing in the Glee
Clubs.
Now for the Dramatics. First of all, some of the best and funniest stunts in the
Komedy Koncert were put on almost entirely by Sophomores. Second, manyiThes-
pians, or rather "would-bes," took part in the "Glorious Girl " to 'help make it a
success.
When they first spoke of having a Student Council we chose our representatives
and they were ready for work almost -as soon as our upper-classmen. They were the
ringleaders, so we could not hope to compare ourselves with them,
All in all, we feel that we have done our share during the past year.
A Senior was walking on a railroad track,
The train was coming fast.
The Senior jumped right off t-he track
And let the train go past.
A Sophomore was walking on a railroad track,
The train was coming very fast.
The train got off the track
To let the' Soph go past. fSelectedJ Grace Larson '26.

NTER the Freshmen. It was an ideal September day and the Fresh-
men, strong, rallied at the doors of E. H. S., to seek their fill of higher
knowledge. The halls were soon filled with many bewildered people
and a look of determination hovered over their bright and shiny faces. But
the suspense was not long, for soon they became accustomed to our surround-
ings and a more home-like attitude prevailed.
There is evidence of an energetic class and an interesting future is
promised.
They have taken an active part in all of our activities. A '27 Hoat was
entered in our big Home-coming and their loyal support of all our athletic
events was appreciated.
Two members represent them in the Student Council-Robert XVagner
and Cecelia McGill, doing their best to fulfill the expectations of the class.
NVith the valuable material the Class of '27 contains, there will be many
interesting projects developed.
lVe wish you the best of success and in the following years will keep
your memory as green as possible.

ATHLETIC
DIRECTORS
92
1924 Q 3 W THE MAROON Q W Q 1924
COACH WILSON
Coach " Curly " Wilson, although serving his first year as Athletic Director, has
made a record both in football and basketball that is hard to beat. Taking a bunch
of green material in football, he built up the greatest fighting team Elgin ever had.
He instilled in the fellows a spirit of cooperation and fight such as had never been
seen on the Elgin gridiron. The lightweight basketball team under his direction tied
for championship-a thing which had never before been done by an Elgin lightweight
team. After the lightweight season he took over the heavyweight team in the absence
of Vogel and guided them through the state tournament to Elgin's first state cham-
pionship.
COACH VOGEL
Coach " Ott " Vogel, brought to Elgin to take charge of the heavyweight basket-
ball team and to assist Wilson, is an ex-Illini star. He brought with him the short
pass game of Illinois and built up a state champion basketball team. He won the
confidence of every fellow on the squad and at any time they were ready to give all
they had to win a game for him. Having taken his team through the Big Seven un-
defeated, " Ott " was forced to leave them, being under contract to the Chicago Cubs.
Although he was not here to lead his team in winning the state championship, he
truly is the builder of Elgin's first state champion basketball team.
COACH HALIGAS
Coach " Curly " Haligas, last year's lightweight football coach, will be lost to the
High School coaching staff next year. " Curly " has been placed in charge of all grade
school athletics. His last team displayed the same old fight and clean football char-
acteristic of all his former machines. "Curly," being an Elgin High School graduate
and former football star, knows the game from beginning to end. The lightweights
will miss him next year, but we are looking to " Curly " to develop some good men in
the grade schools who can be turned into stars when they reach High School.
COACH PIPER
Coach Piper, the newest addition to the coaching staff, is the track coach, and
will also take charge of the lightweight football team next year. He has had a great
deal of training along athletic lines and should turn out a winning track team. ' As
to the lightweight football team, we are sure that with the amount of material com-
ing out, Piper will put a team in the field that Elgin High will be proud of.
MANAGER WAGGONER
Manager Waggoner, better known as "Wag," is the man who takes care of the
business end of the athletics. He is known and liked by every player in High School,
and although not a coach, he is constantly with the fellows at every practice and at
every game, doing all he can and assisting the coaches in every possible way. " Wag "
is always ready to help any fellow, and backs the team to the limit-win or lose. His
never-failing spirit inspires 'the fellows to give all they have to win. It has often been
remarked during the last year that " Wag " is the best High School manager in the
country.

OR three long summer months twenty prospective candidates of the football
team labored underneath the scorching sun. These boys had the true football
spirit at heart, and were doing this work to get into condition for their training
trip.
On the twenty-second of August five automobiles loaded with boys, football
equipment, and most of all, spirit, left Elgin for Camp Wildwood, located on Green
Bay. in the woods of northern Wisconsin. After arriving there we found the camp
situated on the shore of the bay and at the bottom of a hill which was one-half mile
in length. I might add here that Wilson saw the possibilities of developing leg-driving
power when he gave orders to the effect that no one should walk up the hill, but
should run always. This we didg we even ran up the hill before breakfast, and oh,
the appetites we had after that mile jaunt every morning!
The routine of camp life, eve11 thou-gh five hours were spent in vigorous football
practice, appealed to us all. Every one gained from Eve to ten pounds of valuable
"beef." In the morning we made our beds, got water, and split Erewood for the
cooks before XfVilson called us to the field. After dinner from twelve-thirty to one-
thirty o'clock we rested. Then, after two hours of hard practice, we took that daily
plunge into the cold lake water. The water felt ice cold to all of us, but Tenny swam
around as if it were of ordinary temperature. How he did it no one knows. Now we
were at liberty. Some played horseshoes, others played cards, while others went hiking,
canoeing or fishing.
Supper time had its special features, either in a special food, a talk from Price.
or advice from Wilson or Waggoner.

OSING only two games, the Heavyweights had a very successful foot-
ball season. Considering that it was a green team with only three
letter men to build around, wonders were accomplished.
Fresh from the ten-day training camp, the "Heavies " ran away from
Naperville, 30-O.
VVoodstock fell next, and fell hard, 22-O.
Austin, considered a dangerous contender in the Chicago league, meant
nothing to Elgin and were defeated, Z1-0.
To West Aurora, the conference champions, Elgin lost its first game,
7-3. It was played in the mud, and the heavier and more experienced XVest
High team held the advantage.
Going to Freeport, Elgin's hghting Maroons took the game by a 20-13
score.
DeKalb came to Elgin and handed them their second and final defeat,
6-0. It was a bitterly-fought game, but Elgin could not get the breaks.
Elgin outplayed Rockford in every department, but the best " Old Man
Hard Luck " would give was a 6-6 tie to Elgin, and a broken shoulder to
Romeis, Elgin's right end.
The Maroons journeyed to Joliet on the next Saturday and returned
victorious, 41-7. " Pat " Bolger was very much in evidence at Joliet, mak-
ing 29 points himself.
The "Heavies" blanked the East Aurora boys, 9-O, mainly through
Bolger's toe.
In their final game on Thanksgiving against XVheaton, Elgin ran wild
after a bad start, and won 16-7. Tom Morley starred with his smashing line
plunges that gained more ground than the whole XVheaton team together.
This was a remarkable showing for a green team, but next year with
more than half of the fellows back, we are expecting nothing short of Big
Seven and State Championships.

HILE not as successful as the f'Heavies," being handicapped by
having a green team, with only one man back from last year,
the Lightweights fought hard and well, and deserve as much credit
as the " big boys."
In their Hrst game against the heavier and more experienced Alumni
Lights they were defeated.
Against X'Voodstock they took their revenge and won a one-sided game.
The Austin Lights Qso calledj defeated the Maroonettes in their third
game by a Huke in the last quarter, after trailing for nearly the whole game.
lVest Aurora managed to sneak a win over our Ponies, 2-0.
The Lightweights came back, beating Freeport at Freeport 10-O. This
is the first time Freeport Lights were ever beaten at home. The eighty
yard run by VVells was the feature of the game.
DeKalb managed to garner a lone touchdown, which spelled defeat for
our Lights.
The Ponies played in hard luck against Rockford and lost 6-O. The
Lights outplayed the Rabs, but lacked the punch to put the ball over.
A place kick in the third quarter beat the Maroonettes at Joliet, 3-0.
In their last game the crippled Lightweights went down to defeat against
East Aurora 12-0.
Although they did not place high in the conference standing, the Elgin
Lightweights displayed a fighting spirit that is a credit to any school.

Captain . Alvin Hameilter
To "Abie Hameister goes the honor of being captain of the greatest fighting
team Elgin has ever had. "Abe" played tackle, and, although a light man for the
position, stopped everything that came his way. He was and did all that any captain
could possibly be or do.
Captain-elect Herbert Hill
M Herbie " Hill. the " little fighting fool," filled the position at quarterback. He
was the spirit of the team, directing and commanding like a general. Herb won the
respect and confidence of all t-he fellows, and with a good bunch back next year we
look for a championship team.
Lawrence Bolger
" Pat " Bolger, one of the greatest place-kickers Elgin ever turned out, played
fullback. Although on account of injuries he did not run with the ball much he made
up for it by his kicking and passing. " Stop Bolger" was the ery of all our opponents.
Tom Morley
Morley, the plunging Sophomore, was responsible for most of Elgin's ground
gaining. He is a fast, hard-hitting never-stop plunger, and with two more years ahead
of him should be the best in the conference.
Oswald Hill
" Ossie " Hill, playing the other half, is surely a fit running mate for Morley. When-
ever he took the ball it meant two or three yards.
Fred Lehman
Fred Lehman, left end. is a fast and dependable man. Fred played a steady, con-
sistent game, and is a tackler of no mean ability.
Elroy Cromer
" Dina " Gromer, the big Sophomore tackle, played a pretty game. stopping every-
thing that came 'his way. In his next two years he should develop into one of the
grealtest tackles Elgin ever produced. '
I Clarence Jewett '
Clarence jewett, Elgin's All-Conference guard, is the fastest. hardest-hitting guard
in the Big Seven. Although this was his first and only year as a regular, he made a.
name for himself that will not soon be forgotten. '
Earl Tenny
" Fat " Tenny, Elgin's 210 pound center, is a sure. accurate passer, and on the
defense is almost a stone wall. He has two more years, and we are expecting great
things from him.
Kenneth Pflaum
" Kenny " Pflaum, the find of the season, played both at tackle and at guard. He
is a fast, aggressive man, and a sure tackler. "Kenny" is also All-Conference.
Paul Romeis
Paul Romeis, Elgin's "hard-luck " right end, is a fast man, and one of the hardest
and surest tacklers in the Big Seven. Although only playing in four conference games
because of injuries, he received All-Conference mention.
Harold Hameister
" Hod " Hameister. Abe's bro-ther. played rigih-t guard and next to Abie. These two
brothers are a hard combination to beat, being both fast and hard-hitting.

N the basketball contests Elgin hnished better than in football. The
" Heavies " won their lirst undisputed Big Seven championship, while
the " Lights " for the hrst time are seen at the top, tied with Freeport
for first place. Owing to some trouble with the association over their coach,
Rockford was suspended from the Conference and not allowed to compete
in the basketball games. Hence, their standing is not recorded. However,
they have been reinstated and will play next year.

six baskets.
Our Maroons proved too much for the class of Chicago teams, and Har--
rison Tech, Crane Tech, and Sterling were defeated in three successive
games, 31-12, 30-9, and 33-13 respectively. Semeny made six baskets in
the game with Harrison, and eight in the game with Sterling Morton.
Elgin took their first conference game from VV. Aurora 33-13. " Soup "

20-9.
Elgin took a close game from Freeport 23-19, and put them out of the
race for conference honors.
In the next conference game, Elgin defeated E. Aurora 27-9. The Ma-

Remsujeff, giant Dekalb guard, and sank eight baskets.
Elgin met their first defeat of the season at Rockford's hands, 29-22, in
a non-conference game. The Maroons did not get started until it was too
late.
The Maroons then took the count of the powerful Englewood live 28-13.
Elgin traveled to Dundee, and defeated them 21-13. Dundee was after
revenge for their previous beating, but the Maroons proved too much for
them.
In the titular game with Joliet, with the " Big 7 " championship in the
balance, the Maroons played their best, and won 30-14. Joliet took the
lead, 8-4, but Elgin got started and soon obtained the lead. " Soup " sank

after more honors, and got them by winning the Sectional Tourna-

game. Elgin knew they had a hard game ahead of them, since Streator
had defeated Rockford the night before. The score was very close all through
the first three quarters, but Elgin played the game of their lives, and won,
35-23. The second game was not so hard, the Maroons defeating XVaukegan,

they could keep up their long record of victories, but fell before the Maroons.

RESH from their victory at Joliet, the Elgin "VVonder" basketball
team, representing Northern Illinois, went to Urbana to the state
finals. The team was greatly handicapped by the fact that Semeny,
Elgin's great guard, had wrenched his shoulder at Joliet, and things looked
worse when we drew, as our opponents in the first game, Canton, the hardest
team of the bunch. However, the fellows had their old fighting spirit, and,
when they entered that game on Friday night, they had a determination
that could not be beaten. The Canton game was one of the wildest night-
mares that the Elgin fans ever experienced. Leading at the half ll-6, Elgin
slumped, and Canton, who were playing a pretty passing game, but could
not find the basket, came back until toward the end of the game they were
within one point of tying the score. It was then a matter of see-saw, back
and forth, neither team playing up to form and missing repeatedly. The
end, however, was plain, for the fighting determination of the Elgin team
could not be downed and it was that spirit and nothing else that won the
Canton game, 16-14.
Entering the final game with Athens on Saturday night as the under-
dogs and conceded not even a ghost of a chance to win by many, Elgin
came to and played the game of their lives. They out-fought and out-
generaled the bewildered Athens five in every department. Semeny, play-
ing practically with one hand, ran rings around his opponents and showed
himself at all times a master of the situation. Hill's fight, Lang's consistent
basket shooting, Mills' deadly eye for the wicket, and Solyom's uncanny
guarding, together with Semeny's wonderful floor game, won for Elgin its
first state championship, by a score of 28-17 over Athens. Elgin played as
one man, working the ball down with remarkable speed and accuracy, and
after the first quarter the final outcome of the game was never in doubt.
Elgin was further honored when the all-state team, picked by the officials,
was announced. It is as follows:

FTER a week of wild celebration and honor, E1gin's State Champions
traveled to the invitation tournament at Chicago, into which had
been entered the cream of the High School teams of the country.
E1gi11 drew Emporia, the Kansas State Champions, as their first oppo11ents.
Emporia's team consisted of four four-year men and one three-year man-
all big a11d fast. Elgin was off forn1 decidedly and after the first half the
defense broke, letting Emporia's " Cornhuskers " run wild. The fellows
had been robbed of their determination before they left Elgin that morn-
ing, and so, playing a game without their minds and hearts in it. they lost
to Emporia 30-15. '
However, after seeing t11at the students at least were backing them
with a large delegation in Chicago, the team came back in the Consolation
Tournament and won three' games in old-time form, placing themselves in
the finals on Saturday night. But the long grind of the tournaments was
telling on them and in the hnal game with XYarrensburg, Missouri, for third
place in the National Tournament they were nosed out, after staging a des-
perate rally in the final quarter, by a 34-27 score.
Elgin was greatly 1101'10I'Cd in having Captain " Soup " Semeny placed
on the All-American High School Basketball Team by one of the Chicago
papers. This is the first time any Elgin player has been so highly honored,
but it was an honor justly deserved.

Basketball "4 " fllllen
Captain Louis Semeny
Captain " Soup" Semeny, Elgin wonder floor guard, is without a doubt the greatest
basketball player Elgin has ever produced. He has everything that goes to make up
a great basketball player-speed, shiftiness, sure basket eye, and an unlimited amount
of endurance. It is fitting that he should be captain of Elgin's greatest team, the
state champions.
Captain-elect Herbert Hill
" Herbie " Hill has the special honor of being elected to captain both football and
basketball teams next year. As in football, just so in basketball, " Herbie " is the spirit
-that old fighting, " never say die " spirit-of the whole team. He is a most consistent
forward, not so fiashy, but always there with a basket when it is needed most.
Harry Lang
Harry Lang, Elgin veteran center, is a true running mate for Hill, being consistent
and always dependable. Never was there a more untiring, steady, hard-working player
than Harry.
Douglas Milla
"Gaga " Mills, the little fighting forward, possesses an uncanny eye for the basket,
which was a determining factor in E1gin's victories. He is back next year and should
go bigger than ever.
Andrew Solyom
" Andy " Solyom, the giant back-guard, is a bear on the defense. VVorking in per-
fect 'harmony with Semeny, " Andy " displayed some wonderful guarding, especially
during the tournament play. '
Clayton Stone .
" Bates" Stone, the "pinch-hitter" of the Elgin team, is another man with a
deadly eye for the basket. " Bates " is a crafty, careful player, and always present with
three or four baskets.
Fred Lehman
Fred Lehman, back guard, played his usual consistent game. He could always be
depended upon to deliver the goods when sent in.
Oswald Hill
"Ossie" Hill, running guard, filled Semeny's position in case of Semeny's absence
from the game. He is a hard player. and very good on the defense.
Chapman Wells
" Chap " Wells is a fast, flashy forward, and, when Chap is hot, the old ball rolls
through that wicket with regularity.
Kenneth Pflaum
Kenneth Pfiaum, playing back guard until declared ineligible by the ninth semester
ruling, deserves a great deal of credit for his work in winning the first games of the
long grind to the state championship. -
Clifford Welton
" Cliff" Weston returned to school just in time to fill the position of back guard
left vacant by Pfiaum. He 'has left school again, but it is hoped that he will return
next year.

on May 24, and also in having Rockford here in a dual meet on the follow-
ing Saturday. Morley, Bryant, Vllells, and Newsome will represent Elgin
in the lllinois lnterscholastic Meet at Urbana. They will run the dashes and

May 1. lt was the most hotly contested meet ever held at Maroon
Field and after the smoke of the battle cleared away, the Seniors had
won over the juniors by 2 points.
The Juniors piled up a l5-point lead on XYednesday in the dashes and
looked like sure winners. However, the Seniors came by on Thursday night,
winning all the field events and piling 53 points in all. The Sophomores lin-
ished third, and the 'Freshmen-last.

ECAUSE the Maroon goes to press before any of the track meets
are held, we are unable to record any of the events. Nevertheless,
from seeing the fellows work out each night we are able to predict
a good many first places.
Captain Fred Lehman, a three-letter man, is going great in the broad
jump. He also throws the javelin and the discus. In the former event he is
sure to break the conference record, as he is throwing the spear way over
the record now in practice. NVith " Fritz " as leader we are sure of a
winning team.
Phelan, the veteran miler and last year "E" man, looks unbeatable
and is sure to break the conference record in the mile.
Morley, the football star, has shown wonderful form and speed in the
220. If he does not break the record in this dash, we are a bunch of bum
guessers.
Bryant, the leading dash man, bids fair to cop some speed honors for
himself. He looks capable of filling Austin's shoes.
Newsome, the dusky lad, is Morley's running mate, and steps the 220
in record time.
W'ells, in the 440 and high jump, is sure to drag down some points. He
runs the 440 like a veteran.
The half-milers, Austin and Heiman, bid fair to be in the front ranks.
With Christie in the pole vault, -I. Tobin and Price running the hurdles,
and P. Tobin throwing the weights, Elgin will take most of the points in
these events.
The track outlook is exceedingly bright this year. VVith the abundance
of good material, and a coach who can devote all his time to track, Elgin
should win every meet they enter by a comfortable margin.

EXN' football seasons are fraught with greater surprises than the sea-
son of 1923. lt seemed that about all we had was a prayer-only
three men returning from a team that won only one game in the
conference the preceding year.
However, stimulated by Captain Hameister's successful attempt in mak-
ing possible a training trip to northern Wlisconsin, and the securing of
the services of Coach M. E. VVilson. each and every member of the team
put forth every effort possible to make a successful team.
Too much credit cannot be given to Coach XVilson and the "Fighting
Maroons of 1923 " for their successful season. The pilot of 1924, H. Hill,
has already won a place in the hearts of all with whom he has come- in con-
tact. His spirit of " Never Down Hhhis ability as a player and his natural
leadership are bound to be large factors toward a successful year in 1924.
The basketball season of 1923-24 can never be forgotten by Elgin High
School.
Captain Semeny. possibly the best High School player in the country,
led the team through the year as only a veteran is able to do. Assuming
the duties of head basketball coach, Qtto Vogel gave to the team the coach-
ing and technique necessary to a state championship team. To win the state
championship a team must have exceptional teaching, wonderful endur-
ance, complete cooperation and ability. The Elgin High School team was
not lacking in any of these. Coach Ruby of lllinois made a true statement
when he said, " The best team won state honors," and Herbie Hill leads the
1924-25 team. VVe predict for him another successful season.
XVith fond recollections of the many bright spots' of the season, may
the very few of darker hue be forgotten, in anticipation of the future for
Elgin High.

These two give their time and energy to make you yell and to help
our teams win. During this last athletic season their work has been heavy,
nevertheless they followed the teams and kept up the old fighting spirit.
Although there is no letter recognition given to the cheer leaders, their
efforts have been appreciated and we wish in this way to give them the credit
they deserve.

O Hum Harry! "
" Say, Kiddo! What time is it? "
" VVhat! 7: 25! And breakfast at 7: 3O! "
" XVhere's my shoe! I'll never get to breakfast in time,"
That's what the G. A. C. Camp is like. Fun when you get up until you
climb into bed. Oh! Vklhat a glorious time you have, on an area of several
hundred acres with beautiful groves, valleys, gardens, iields and oh, every-
thing one could desire for a summer camp. XVith the dormitories, dining
hall, recreation hall, swimming pool, basketball court, and even a hospital
1here's hoping no one will ever use itj situated about a mile back from the
Sheridan Road, not more than a few miles out of XVaukegan.
Many hikes are enjoyed, including to the Naval Station, to the beach,
and an interesting trip to Zion City, all affording great sport and fun.
Oh Girls! Best of all is getting acquainted, and after that-it's just like
one big family of about fifty girls.
The line-up consists of a morning dip, closely followed by breakfast.
Then comes the putting in order of the " dorms," plus inspection. After work
comes play, so everyone adjourns to the playground for a good game of
baseball or something of that sort.
Some one cries, " Hereis the mail man." Girls from everywhere come
Hying, running, and the poor mail man is nearly mobbed. " Any mail for
me? " is the battle cry.
It isn't long before you are aware of the fact that you are hungry, but
the dinner bell rings, so you scamper to fill your desire.
After a good deal of exercise during the morning you are willing to
rest for an hour after dinner. The rest is soon broken by the call for a
swim. Oh Boy! But it makes you feel good.
A party every night, with stunts put on by every school attending camp.
Then is when you see some real talent, including your own. Some one will
strike up a merry tune and everyone dances until one's bones rattle the
bedtime call.
So, slowly many sleepy girls retire to their dorms, planning the to-
morrow, with a "Ho Hum Harry," while a friendly counselor drowsily
calls, " Lights out! "
P. Don't forget, girls, that there is going to be another camp like
this one again in June. So don't miss the time of your life.

VERY year more High School girls take part in organized athletics.
This is not only because a larger number take part in each event, but
also because new sports are being added. This year hockey was added
and golf revived. These brought out many more girls, and as they become
established they will probably attract many more.
Credit for this increasing interest is largely due to Miss Logan, who
since she has been here has introduced several new sports and given her time
to making them successful. It is her wish to have enough different types
of athletics so that girls who do- not care for one sport may participate in
another. This was worked out for the first time this fall when hockey, golf,
and volleyball were being played during the same season.
This year in girls' athletics has been perhaps the best one we have ever
had. No class has received all the victories, though the Seniors and Juniors
have won more than the others, as might be expected and, more important
still, a large number of girls have been getting healthy exercise.
All that might be wished has not been accomplished. During the basket-
ball season the Gym was available only two nights a week, and sometimes
not that often. It was also hard to get a field for outdoor sports. Considering
these handicaps, girls' athletics have done very well, and one wonders what
might be accomplished with better facilities.

l.ord's l'arl: baseball diamond and practices were held there and on the foot-
ball ileld. The sport was open to junior and Senior girls only. The Academy
girls also practiced and there was an understanding that a game would be
played between the two schools. Meanwhile class teams were formed. with

a series of games arranged. The Seniors won the first two games, making
a third unnecessary. The scores were: Seniors 3. hluniors O. and Seniors

OR the third time the Junior girls won the Baseball Championship this
year, having won this title both last year and the year before, in
their Sophomore and Freshman years. The class of " '25's " success is
due to two things-first, they have a good team, and second, they have an
excellent pitcher. ln their first game they overwhelmed the Freshmen by a
score of 18 to 4. The Sophomores held them down a little, but they also
held the Sophomores down and the final score was 8 to 1. The Seniors, with
hopes of a championship, put up a good fight, but had to take the short end
of a 10 to 7 score.
The Junior line-up was: D. Roberts, M. Bowen fp. Captj, H. McMahon,
M. Pierson, M. McMahon, D. Vylolff, N. Cotton, F.. Franz, H. Vtfilkening, M.

and losing two. The Seniors beat the Sophomores, the Sophomores beat
the Freshmen, and the Freshmen beat the Seniors. The scores: Seniors 14,
Sophomores 5, Sophomores 29, Freshmen 24, Freshmen 15, Seniors ll.
Challenges have been issued by some of the teams and though the of-
hcial record will not be changed, the relative merits of the three teams may
be decided.

OR its annual play the Class of 1924 chose " Clarence," a comedy by
Booth Tarkington, which they presented on the afternoon of Decem-
ber eleven, and the evening of December twelve, nineteen hundred
twenty-three.
Under the direction of Miss Helen VVelty, the dramatic abilities of the
cast were greatly developed. Those who saw the excellent performance will
long remember the question, " You were in the army, Clarence, what would
you do? " by which members of the family sought solution to their many
vexing problems.
The class greatly appreciate the service of the High School Orchestra,
and of all who assisted in making the play the success that it was.
The large audiences at both performances made possible a splendid
financial outcome.

RESENTED by the Junior Class of the Elgin High School, as a class
play, on Tuesday, May 20, the melodramatic farce, " The Seven Keys
to Baldpatef' by George M. Cohan, was greatly enjoyed.
The mystery of the play concerns the wager of NVilliam Hollowel
in mid-winter.
believing that
Magee that he can write a novel in twenty-four hours. To accomplish
this he goes to the secluded summer resort, Baldpate Inn,
Crooks and murderers come here as a place of refuge, each
he has the only key to Baldpate. Seven ke-ys at length turn up during the
allotted time. Two interesting surprises awaited the large audience at the
end.
The play was given under the direction of Miss Helen XVelty. It was
both a dramatic and financial success.

N the afternoon and evening of Friday, April 5, the Annual Comedy
Concert was presented. The Mirror Board, under whose supervision
it is given, was greatly pleased with the financial outcome.
The unusually fine program was made the more enjoyable by a new
feature, two Faculty stunts. The first of these, " Reform," was very care-
fully worked out in every detail.
" Melody and Co." gave us the latest jazz numbers. Fancy dancing
during these was greatly appreciated.
A typical college boy's room was the scene of " A Girl Made to Order."
The necessity of explaining where father's money was being spent caused
the action in " A Girl Made to Order."
" The Steadfast Tin Soldier " was full of airy dancing and singing, with
good stage setting.
" The Fatal Quest," another Faculty stunt, brought down the house
with laughter. The characters gave their own stage directions and each
part was in the third person. The devoted "queen," the dashing young
'fduke," and the "beautiful princess " will long be remembered by those
who attended.
A clever take-off on the Faculty and students was given by the " F.
F. F.'s."
" Topics in Brief " reminded the audience of a slow moving picture. The
ability of those in this stunt to take their parts as if in a movie was well
displayed.
" The Four Aces " was full of thrills and wonder as to what our novel
acrobats would do next. -
Radio broadcasting from the studio of Station " VV. XV. XV." was very
cleverly given.
'K Two of Us," a before-the-curtain act, was full of interesting, enter-
taining jokes.
Our sympathy was greatly aroused for " The Three Trees." The poor
little rabbit that drank at the spring among the trees was very sly and
shrewd.
The orchestra's assistance was much appreciated during the changing
of scenery.

UNORS were brought to Elgin High School through the ellorts of
llattie Huetter and Ethel XYaterson, who represented us in the ex-
temporaneous speaking contest of April 11, l924. The nlany cou-
testants drew slips on which was written a topic of national or international
importance. These were the topics on which they spoke. Each was given
an hour's time for preparation, but without magazine or textbook. Miss
lYaterson's topic was " The l'hilippines," while Miss lluetter drew the sub-
ject of " The Ku Klux Klan." This is an exceedingly diflicult one on which
to talk, for a neutral stand has to be taken by the speaker in order not to
tread on some one's toes. This was inost unfortunate for Miss Huetter.
Miss XYaterson, however, came nobly to the rescue and won second place
in the contest.
On May 2, 1924, we were represented in the speaking' contest at Big
Rock by Hattie Huetter and Beth XVing. XVe are proud of the fact that
the tirst places were taken by our contestants, Miss Huetter winning iirst
and Miss XYing second. Miss Huetter read " Mercedes " and Miss Vkiing'
" The Littlest Rebelf' These girls have not only brought honor to them-
selves, but to Elgin High School and too much cannot be said in praise of
their efforts.
Much credit is due Miss Helen XYelty, teacher of English and Public
Speaking, for her untiring efforts in preparing' for these contests.

big success from all standpoints-musical, artistic. dramatic, and tinancial.
The dancing was directed by Charlotte Harvey. Miss Abell had charge
of the costumes: Mr. Lloyd was stage director and Miss VVelty was the dra-
matic director. Elsa Fredricks, assisted by the orchestra, accompanied the

HE orchestra has done very creditable work this year. It was under
Mr. Liska's direction last semester and is under Miss Stocking this
semester. The orchestra spent a good deal of time practicing for
the operetta. They also played at the Christmas and Easter Cantatas, at
the Class Plays and at several Parent-Teacher Meetings. The orchestra meets
three times a week on seventh periods. At present there are twenty-one
members. ,

A chorus for unchanged voices was organized this year by Mr. Liska. This is the
hrst chorus of its kind that we have ever had in High School. The chorus has done
remarkable work and has made several appearances before the public. The chorus
is a fine thing to train the boys for future work in glee clubs.

HE Elgin lligh School is proud of its band this year and has a right
to be. Both bands have contributed to making' the school spirit better
than it has ever been before. The First meeting of the Boys' Band
was held on October 15 and on November 3 it played at the Rockford foot-
ball game. It has made unusually rapid progress.
The large instruments are furnished by the school, while all who
play solo instruments furnish their own. The band meets outside of school
hours-during the noon hour. There are now about forty members.
The new maroon and cream uniforms add greatly to the appearance of
the band. The uniform consists of a maroon overseas cap, a maroon coat.
cream trousers, and black leather puttees.
The band is being backed by the Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs. A great
deal of credit is due Mr. Liska for the rapid progress and success of the
band.

ECJXUSE the girls did not want the boys to get ahead of them, they
were not slow to ask that they might have a band. Sixty-tive ap-
plicants put the question before the Board of Education. The board
did not have the heart to turn down sixty-live pretty girls. The Girls'
Band is now as large as the Boys' Band. There are about forty members.
It is being especially backed by the Elgin Business and Professional XYomen's
Club.
The girls' uniforms consist of maroon woolen middies and tams, and
cream skirts. The girls made a great hit when they played at the Dekalb
basketball game.
This band also practices during noon hours. Every girl is an enthusiastic
worker to make the band a big success. Mr. Liska directed the band last
semester and Miss Stocking directs it this semester.
Because of the large number of underclassmen in the band. it is bound
to be a great success again this year.

LASS DAY marked the first event on the calendar for Commence-
ment week. This program took place in the Auditorium the morn-
ing of May thirty-first, where the-re was much rivalry between the
Juniors and Seniors over the display of class colors. V
The next evening, June first, was the Senior Class Dance, held in the
Gymnasium. The committees spared neither time nor trouble in p1'epar-
ing for the dance, and it proved to be one of the biggest events in the Seniors'
career. The Gym looked lovely decked in branches of apple blossoms and
the class colors. Stone's Novelty Orchestra furnished snappy music, and
everyone had a wonderful time.
A fine Baccalaureate Sermon was given Sunday, june third, by Rev-
erend j. F. Vonckx of the Presbyterian Church. He brought out many
helpful points which should prove very valuable to the graduates in the
future.
A wise choice was made in deciding to have the Class Picnic at Oak
Ridge. This came the day after flnals, and consequently all enjoyed them-
selves much more. The afternoon was spent in playing games, running
races, dancing and canoeing. Then there was a big feed, more dancing, and
the class went home, feeling that the picnic had been a great success.
Finally, after four years of hard work, but also four years of pleasure,
happiness and good times, the long-awaited, happiest, and most satisfying
event of the high school student's life-graduation-came to pass. The
Commencement Exercises took place in the Auditorium, Thursday evening,
june seventh, at eight o'clock. Loie Granke played the march, and the Class
of ,ZS took their seats for the last time as students of E. H. S. It was the
first time that the girls had been allowed to wear colored dresses, and in
the soft pastel shades, with corsage bouquets. they made a lovely picture.
Mr. H. C. Blair, the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, was the
speaker of the evening and delivered a very fine message. The Girls' Glee
Clubs sang several musical numbers, and George Brandenburg, the Class
President, gave a short talk. Mr. Harris presented the diplomas to the
graduates, who then became alumni.
Now we, the Class of 1924, as our Commencement is approaching, look
forward to it eagerly, although our hearts are sad at the thought of leaving
our dear Alma Mater. But we know that the classes following us will
have as many good times and make as many real friends as we have, and
they can be sure that in the future they will hear more of us.

T the close of the football season the football " li" men and mem-
bers of the Board of Education were guests at a banquet given by
the Athletic Board. The banquet was held in the l.ibrary, which was
appropriately decorated for the occasion. The tables formed a large " lf "
with two large goal posts at either end, wound with Maroon and Cream
crepe paper and decorated with large bows, The place cards had figures
of football players on them and there were large Maroon " li's " on the nap-
kins. Much credit is due the llomestie Science classes, who prepared and
served the dinner.
T. .X. Larsen was the toastmaster, and his wit and eleverness in intro-
ducing the speakers were appreciated by everyone, especially the team.
Coach XYilson presented the members of the heavyweight and lightweight
teams with their letters, emblems and fobs. Several members of the Board
gave short talks, as did Mr. XYaggoner, Captain Alvin llameister and Captain-
elect llerbie llill. XYe have had a wonderful season under "Abe's" line
leadership, and we wish " llerbie " lots o' luck for an even more success-
ful season next year.
A similar banquet is being planned for the basketball " li" men. lie-
cause of the tournaments this banquet will be held too late to get the write-
up in the Maroon. llowever, from the plans already made, it promises to
be a great success and a very litting climax to lClgin's greatest basketball
season.

UR Girls' Athletic Club had more parties and good times than ever
this year. To make it more interesting the club was divided into
rival factions, the " Peps " and the " Impsf' and there was a great
deal of competition in all .athletics and also at the parties.
The first "affair" of the club was a " get together " party. October
fifth, in the Gym. There was a clever program, dancing and then--eats!
Of course Halloween couldn't go by without something to celebrate
So the " Imps " gave a Masquerade for the " Pepsf' There were Chinks,
Swedes, Hicks, Sheiks, Yamps, little boys and girls, Nymphs, old maids-
every kind and species you can imagine! First a tine program was giveng
then there was dancing in the Gym-to a real orchestral At refreshment
time prizes of four silver F. H. S. rings were awarded to the best dressed.
Jan Lowrie as a tall, lank, leany professor, Margaret XValmuth as a homely
old maid, Gertie Carbaugh as--well, something all fluffy with a little red
parasol, and Lucille Roth as Pierrot were the lucky ones. After the eats
everyone of the mixture of breeds and species got home without being
arrested.
Then the "1mps" and "Preps" had a Hare and Hound chase. The
" lmps " succeeded in winning, and a weenie roast was enjoyed at Trout
Park.
At Christmas time, in order not to be outdone by their rivals, the " Peps "
gave a "Twin-Kid" Party. lSome of the twins looked so much alikej
There were " kid " games, dancing and eats. and all felt that they had
really gone back to their childhood days.

OCKEY was revived this year at E. H. S., and a picked team from
the Juniors and Seniors beat the Academy. A banquet was given
in their honor, held in the Drawing Room. The tables were in the
form of an " E " with a hockey field in the middle, kewpie dolls representing
the players. '
The hockey letters were presented, and Helen Herbster, as toastmis-
tress, called on Misses Logan, Rickert, and Pratt and also the team cap-
tains, who responded with short talks.
The menu consisted of baked ham, baked potatoes, rolls, fruit salad
and pie at la mode. After dinner there was dancing in the gym, and going
home the girls decided that a feed like that was worth all their hard practice.

GAIN this year the school dances were given under the supervision
of Miss Pratt and with the help of a committee appointed from the
junior and Senior classes. They were planned for every two weeks.
and proved successful.
The Friday before Christmas vacation a Christmas party was put on by
the committee. There was a large Christmas tree in the center of the Hoor,
and an enlarged orchestra. There was, also, a grand march and an old-
fashioned grand right-and-left, and there were red and white and yellow
striped candy canes for everybody. Nearly the whole school came to the
party, and all agreed that those who were not present were rather " out of
luck." The school orchestra furnished peppy music for all the dances.
The dances were to be tried again this year to see if the student body
showed enough interest in them that they should be continued. judging
from the large number present every two weeks, the school seems to have
given its hearty approval and support. Green Freshmen to staid Seniors
were seen gaily "tripping the light fantastic," and this year, in everybody's
opinion, the school dances " went over big."

NVho could have told that they were not young Freshmen, enjoying them-
selves as young Freshmen do? The snowballs flew thick and fast, result-
ing in several near casualties.
But for a' that, the Senior sleighride was voted a positive " knockout."
There were eats at Dundee, where a little play took place which might be
aptly called the " Mystery of the Three Spoons." Then there was the dra-
matic meeting with the Academy Tenors and more eats at the Kelley. The
Romeis, Gilles, Brown Company, Incorporated, put on a little program
which was varied as it was delightful.
And " the morning after the night before " some said they ducked snow-
balls all night in their sleep.

STUDENT council for E. H. S. promises great accomplishments. For
several years the school has wanted some form of student govern-
ment and has tinally found the solution in a council. Its main purpose
is to construct a firmer understanding between the faculty and the students,
to give us more cooperation.
A constitutional committee. composed of Alvin Hameister, Beth VVing,
Eugene Bohl, Clarence Iewett. Gertrude Carbaugh from the Senior Class,
Clayton Stone, Oswald Hill, Viola Ashman. George Schmidt from the Junior
Class, Eda Bach, Tom Morley from the Sophomore Class, Earl Kelley from
the Freshman Class, drew up a constitution and organized plans for a coun-
cil. The classes sent their representatives and a president was elected from
the student body.
Its first step was to appoint two Junior members on the Maroon staff,
so they could understand the work and make a better annual in the years
to come. It had countless other problems to solve, a book exchange the
greatest, but with a united elfort nothing is too difficult to attempt.
The council consists of eleven members, including two CX-Of:ilCl0.H1Cl11-
bers.

NE year ago the Senior Girls' Council was organized under Miss
Pratt as Dean of Girls. lt is composed of ten girls chosen by the
faculty from the Senior Class.
The purpose of the Council is to look after all Freshman girls, getting
them acquainted and helping them in every possible way. XVith this purpose
in mind a 'K get-acquainted " party was given by the Council, to which each
Senior girl brought a Freshman girl and looked after her during the even-
ing's entertainment. A delightful program was given and refreshments
served.
However, the Council does not limit its help to the Freshmen. Any
girl can come to 201, the Council's headquarters, at any time of the day and
she will be given advice or help by one of the Council members or by Miss
Pratt.
Although the Council is only two years old, it has done a great deal
among the girls, and it is hoped that its work will be extended farther next
vear.

Ye Ballad of git Percy
A
Sir Percy was a knight of old,
He used to knock all comers c
He rode a horse, a noble steed,
'Twas built for comfort, not for speed.
He bore a shield, also a lance,
And wore the best cast iron pants.
And when he wished to be at ease,
He lounged in leathern B. V. Ds.
old 5
Now Kismuh was the sweetest maid
That in the Sultan's harem playedg
Her eyes were of the fairest hue,
She looked just like an ingenue.
Her clothes were latest harem style-
A silken veil, a witching smileg
When she before Abdullah passed
They had to lash him to the mast.
Sir Percy made a grand crusade,
Some Turks he slew and some he slayed.
He slaughtered Turks in manner rough,
And kept the tally on his cuffg
He Ht and fought with manly pride.
"Jerusa1em!" was all he cried.
He made those Turks look up in fea
Till some Moslem low chawed off hi
rs
Then Kismuh came, the fight to see,
With wigor, Wim, witalityg
And to revive him danced awhile
Like Cleopatra on the Nile:
Cried he, "What do they call you. kid?
"Kismuh," cried sheg you bet he did-
And when the evening shadows came,
He still was asking her, her name.

The Curse of Drink
lPrintez1 through the courtesy of VV. T. A. S. and dedicated by special request to Helen Glos, who so
kindly submitted this poem.I
I have followed the hearse of all my hopes,
I have buried them one by one.
Gaze upon me and you will see
What the curse of drink has done.
I, too, had a home, a wife and a child,
But now I am all alone. '
Oh, goodness, I should never have taken
That first insidious ice cream cone.
But I was so young and my friends they were false.
"Just one cannot hurt you," they said.
And I started one night and look at me now-
Ye mackerel! what a life I have led!
My mother said, "Willie, lay off that vanillyg
Them there phosphates will lead you astray,
And the devil himself is in sasparilly,
And his den in them fountains so gay."
But fool that was I laughed her to scorn,
I thought I could take it or leave it alone.
And I drank that same day a chocolate frappe-
My heavens! if I had but known!
That was the start of my downfall, my friends.
From then on it was easy to flit
From a pathway of vice to a pineapple ice
And that hellish banana split.
And then one day an angel came into my life.
"I love you, Willie," she said.
And I loved her so dearly that for one long year nearly
A temperate life I led.
Then a baby came as babies will
And it grew to a babbling child.
But I craved all the time just the juice of o11e lime
And the thought of that drove me wild.
Then one night I fell into an ice cream den
I slinked with a sinful slink.
And when night came on I staggered horne
Again the victim of drink.
Those days of shame are a horrible dream
That will haunt till the days of my death.
This morn when I kissed my child she cried in accents wild
" Daddy, you have raspberry crush on your breath."
VVhat will become of this wreck of a man:
This quivering, broken reed?
"Another coca-cola, with a straw," I cried-
My goodness, what a life I lead.

EXTRA! EXTRA! FACULTY SCANDAL! FACULTY MEMBER' IN BIG CRIME
W. H. P. Huber Sentenced to Life lmprisonment.-Used Fictitious Names
Willie Horse Power Huber, teacher of the science of bunk at the Elgin High
School, is involved in the greatest corrupt scandal the world has ever known since
George Washington crossed the Fox River in a bath tub in the battle of Copenhagen.
Huber, it is said, is a notorious bad man and has used many fictitious names.
His real name, it developed today, is Huber Sparks. He has been going under the name
of Willie Horse Power and others.
Huber Sparks has been teaching in the High School to cover up his dastardly
deeds. He taught many of the sub normals of that institution, the art of chewing gum
without action of the jaws, and how to make a noiseless electric explosion with the
aid of illuminating gas and second-hand safety matches.
He was discovered by T. Arthur Larsen, the faculty sheik and detective, when he
fHuberJ was intoxicated with his knowledge. Sheik Larsen immediately turned him
over to Electrode Fairchild, chief of police.
H. Sparks was bound over to Shock Wag's court for immediate trial. The battle
waged all that day and well into the night before the decision was reached.
Huber Sparks entered the room with tears of carbolic acid running down his thin,
hollow, sunken cheeks, and his slender, narrow-shouldered body was bent over like
that of a five year old boy playing soldier on his rocking horse. The prisoner knew
that the cruel Judge Wag would never allow him to set eyes on that most beloved
treasure of his, that large, beautiful, magnificent, radiant Ford. Well knew the
guilty culprit that the treasure of his life, the thing that had kept him alive all these
years, would be snatched out of his life. That beautiful Ford, manufactured in the
city of Detroit in the year of 1910, A. D., would be gone-forever.
Huber was carried into the courtroom by his fellow members of the bootleggers'
union and his able attorney-Negative Pierce.
Positive Miller acted for the state and was so positive that he positively won his
case.
Magnet Goble, Dynamo Wilson and Arc-Light Vogel, all from the state of Coma,
acted as witnesses.
The trial began. The room was filled, arguing and persuading. Teeth gnashedg
knives flashedg nose met list. In one of these bloody pugilistic encounters, Positive
Miller at last made positive that "a sock on the foot is worth two on the jaw."
At last Judge Wag got order and Positive Miller Qwith three teeth missing, a black
eye, and a bloody nosejj took the stand triumphantly and in all his glory. He charged
the prisoner with assault and battery and demanded a death sentence.
Negative Pierce did a wonderful job of defending, but had no luck.
H. Sparks was called to dance to the cross wired testimony and the crowd of
spectators on the chandeliers and in the gutter went wild with excitement and white
mule.
judge Wag. the mighty terror of the wicked, called out in his husky voice fone
like your grandmother has when she has a coldj sharply.
"What is your name?
" What is your occupation?
" Of what are you charged?
" Hurry upl We haven't all day."
H. Sparks then replied in his deep, oratorical voice, "My name is Sparks. I am
an electrician and I am charged with battery."
Wag got so mad that his face was covered with a beaming smile and he quietly
remarked in a loud voice-

"Put him in a dry cell and let him break currents."
There was dismay, anger, joy, amazement and even an odor of garlic and sauer
kraut in the room at the same time.
The prisoner was filled with joy and sinking in a swoon he was unconscious for
hours. He is now at his task of breaking currents at the state capital.
Huber is also flattening out Radiotran Taylor's, Coil Hance's and Radio Angell's
pocketbooks. They pay the taxes to feed Huber. He is living on a diet of jello and
a thousand meter of spaghetti per day. .

And rather than argue across the fence
I paid four dollars and fifty cents.
One night I set sailing a toy balloon
And hoped it would soar till it reached the moon,
But the candle fell on a farmer's straw,
And he said I must settle or go to law,
And that is the Way with the random shot-

Caesar Ha! Ha!
BY GUM SHOE GUS, 24
Oh! when I entered High School
I was a happy lad.
First year Latin wasn't so hard,
But Caesar was too bad.
Caesar conquered many men,
And many nations conquered he,
But in the second chapter
Caesar conquered me.
At home I took my sad, sad grade
I trembled to my shoe
But when I showed my card to Pa,
He said, "I flunked it too."
Bill Lathin thinks he's hard because he eats half-baked potatoes, hard-boiled
eggs, brick ice cream, and rock candy and he drinks hard water.
"You are no gentleman," Mollie Yaffe said, "if you think I said such a thing as
she said you said I said I had said."
" Dear girl," Herbie replied, " you must not think I think you must be that kind of
a girl I think you must be if you said such a thing as you said she said I said you said
you had said."
It seems he knew she knew he knew she said just what she said she heard he had
heard her say, but with intuitive feminine tact she accepted the apology.

sufficient funds to make this annual a financial success.
In the past years, advertising seemed to be the only method of
obtaining the necessary money, but this year a new plan was tried. Many
of the merchants, professional men, business men and manufacturers of
our town purchased a Maroon, giving their loyal support to a high school
project that will long be remembered.
VVe are greatly indebted to these men, for without their backing our
annual could not be successfully published.
