SENIORS 1932 Red Bird CLASS OF ’32 We are Seniors now, but we have passed through the various ranks to attain this standing. As all do. we started as “Green freshies. ’ Warren Gladder was our president that year and the others following. So well-liked and capable was he that he was elected president of the Student Body in his Senior year. He is the first student to have been president of his class the four consecutive years and also the first president of the Student Body. In our Junior year, our most noteworthy accomplishment was the class play The l atsy.“ Our hearts will always swell with pride when we recall what a success the play proved to be. As Seniors, we presented the class play “Your Uncle Dudley.” Its success was one that is seldom surpassed. Two of our members have received places on the all-state football team. “Chink” Margelli and Paul Yates. But sorrow also entered our hearts when one of our classmates. William Morkunas, met his untimely death by an accident during the first Semester of school. He was a very studious lad and we shall always cherish his memory. We Seniors, although saddended at the thought of leaving, feel it a distinct honor to call F. C. H. S. our “Alma Mater.” CLASS OFFICERS -V BARRENGLADDERS President CHAS.

Eugene Williams was elected president with Earl Poole and Lorene Bullington as helpers. Evelyn Hayes, our nominee for football queen, was elected, an honor seldom attained by a Freshman candidate. Our sponsors were Miss Kane and Mr. Tucker. As Sophomores we boast of no special attainments except that we were still the largest class in school history. Earl Poole was elected president with Birdie Swinburne and James Lucas as co-workers. Marjory Lamb was the candidate for football queen. Our sponsor was Miss Blanche Dollins. This year as Juniors, we again elected Earl Poole president. The assisting officers are Lloyd Bowyer, John Yattoni. and (iene Trini. The faculty advisors are Miss Teel and Mrs. Tidwell. This year finds us well represented in major athletics. In football outstanding Juniors on the first team are Charles Stankus, John Yattoni, and Ed Buckousky. Other Junior names can be found on the various other football squads. In basketball, Vernard Allison is captain of the varsity squad and a majority of the lettermen are members of the Junior class. Aside from the athletic achievements we may also mention our Junior class play, “Daddies.” given March 24th and 25th in the auditorium. We are also very grateful to Miss Teel and Mrs. Tidwell for their work in making our play a success.

It reveals a group of High School Freshmen huddled about the doors of learning. The aspect seems quite dismal hut with Frank Hiscox as chief executive they hold their own in the Athletic and Music Departments, even boasting of possessing two of the four members in the Girls’ Quartette. In Act II these same individuals put their best feet forward as Sophomores. They make for the f K� tball field and the basketball floor with a rush and land several men on first teams—among them the heaviest man on any team in Southern Illinois. Charles Wezalis comes in as President with Dorothy Howker as Vice-President and Elsie Mitchell as Secretary-Treasurer, while Miss Groves and Mr. Lindquist hold sway in the background. As for the future—that comes in Acts III and IV. It is then that the plot thickens and things begin to happen. .Curtain.

Madeline Stephenson: Secretary-Treasurer, Willie Trini. For our sponsors we chose jMiss Mary Dollins and Mr. Hastie. Our freshraaiL-representative.

H. This year climaxed “Chink’s” football experiences in high school when he was placed on the first All-State team and of course, his last which is the sad part. “Chink” was the fellow who always kept the team in the right spirit, and who played the game according to his motto, “That it’s how the game is played and not who wins or loses that is important.” LAVERN TRIPP, R. T. This was Cavern’s first year on the team in two tries. Cavern was a trustworthy player, one that was always ready to go. He leaves a gap in the line as he has a place in the graduation roll. “KATS” TREVOR NICHOLSON, F. B. Nicholson is a hard-hitting sophomore who stepped to the front this year. “Kats” has the fightin spirit and with two more years should make a name for himself in football. Seventy 1932 Red Bird “BLACKIE” JAMES SALA, L. E. “Blackie” started, like Belbas. on the lightweight team four years ago. and in his senior year he made the second all-conference team. It will take good material to patch the gap he will leave. “RED” KENNETH SAWYER, R. E. “Red” is one of those fellows w ho is always full of fight and rarin’ to go. This was his second year of active service on the team and the last one as he will graduate this year. “BLACK” JOHN YATTONI, F. B. With this year ended “Black’s” second year of service for his alma mater. His specialty was “backing up” the line on defense. “Black” will be back at his post next year. “SUG” CHARLES STANKUS. Q. B. This is “Sug’s” third year in football and his second year on the team. Sug was the “big” little man on the team and the best punter in this part of the state. “Sug” should go good next year.

This was his first year in the front ranks, but he stood his ground with the best. “Fat” is only a sophomore and will be back to battle next year. “FAT” ED. BUKOUSKY, L.G. After four years of building up “Fat” made the first team this year. The only bad thing about him is that he won’t be back to fight again next season. Good luck anyway “Fat . CHARLES WEZALIS, H. B. Charles is a sophomore who stepped up to the top in his first year out. Charlie was the boy who always found the holes or if there were no holes he made “ ’em”.

Yates will leave a gap hard to fill when he graduates this year. “ALF” ALFRED BELBAS, C. Alfred started his football career four years ago on the lightweight team and climaxed it this year by making the varsity team. Alfred was the second best center in the all-conference group. He will leave a gap hard to fill. TONY METALLIC, Q. B. This is Tony’s first time on the “letter line”, hut he will be back to show his ability next year. He is a brainy quarterback and a good punter who should go over big. He w ill finish next year. “PADUK” VERNARD ALLISON, H.

This was his first year on the team and the last one as he will be lost through graduation. RED” R ALPH LEE. L. T. This was Lee’s second year on the team and his last one. “Red” was a good fighter and a hard person to stop when he started after the one who carried the ball. JAMES MATTHEWS, Manager This is Jimmie’s third year of football managing and he too will graduate. It was his job to see that all the boys were there with the proper artillery. He also kept them bandaged up. and that was certainly work. csagftg Seventy-four lllllliniHUMMIIIIMIIIinillHIIIIIIIIIHIIMItlMMlilMimill maitiHti iiiiMiiiMNmuMiMMmiiiiumHiitmtHWN = 1932 Red Bird GRID RESULTS THE BEGINNING This season started with a bang when many more boys responded to the call than suits could be furnished to. After rounding into shape there were two practice games with Sesser. We won them both easily, but it gave us some valuable experience. After those games we had a hard schedule of eight games, two of which were lost. The season as a whole was a succss not only in winning but in a relatively small number of casualties. 13 RED BIRDS—CENTRALIA 6 This was the first game and the boys were rather excited, especially the new players. We went expecting a victory and got it though it was a close one with hard fighting. This gave the boys the spirit for the coming game with Johnston City. Johnston City had played Centralia the week before and had some trouble beating them. Well, on to the next fray. 0 RED BIRDS—JOHNSTON CITY 13 This party ended with the Birds on the short end of the score. But don't think it wasn't a fight. The game started out with a bang and it had a whole series of bangs before the game was over. Both sides made quite a few' nice gains with Hobbs carrying the ball for Johnston City and “Chink” for the Red Birds. There was nothing spectacular about the game but there was one sad thing and that was the score, not that it was high but it showed superiority, at least on paper. Well, let's forget this one and go on to one more cheerful. 6 RED BIRDS—SALEM 0 The Birds went up to Salem with a lot of confidence in spite of the defeat the week before. The score justified some of it, but not too much because it was a close game, both on paper and on the field. The Salem boys were rather big and good fighters but finally succumbed to the Red Birds. The only peculiar thing about this game was the absence of “Chink” who was out because of a boil on his arm. However, there was a thrill when “Sug” punted for about seventy yards. 51 RED BIRDS—CARTERY1LLE 0 V , The Birds swam through the mud to their first conference victory over Carterville. This was about as easy a victory as could be wanted as the second team was put in for the last three quarters, and still the score built up as the rain poured down. This helped the Birds to gain a little spirit for the other conference games even though it was nothing to brag about as the visitors had been handed five defeats. lllimiMIIHIIIIMIlIHUIlUillHIIIIIIIinillUllllllllllini lUIIUNMIllllHIIIMlINtlUMHUIIMIIMUIIII IMIlMItMIIINIIMIIIIIIlia 1932 Red Bird 31 RED BIRDS—ANNA 6 The Red Birds tucked another victory under their belt when they trampled Anna under their heels. While the Birds pulled every kind of football out of their trick bag last night, the Anna-Jonesboro crew was fortunate enough to push over their first touchdown of the season against the Bird’s second eleven. This game, like the one before, did not prove anything except that the visitors were worse than was thought, if possible. All the boys are crying for “big games” so let’s move on. 12 REI) BIRDS—MARION 0 Paced by “Chink”, brilliant captain, along with the help of Yattoni, full back, who played a nearly perfect defensive game, the Birds pushed the ball over the line a couple of times to defeat the Marion fellows to the tune of 12-0. This game raised the conference standing of the Birds to fourth, w ith Benton, Johnston City, and Carhondale ahead. This game gave the boys the feeling that they were good, and maybe they were because the visitors were some fighters. 6 RED BIRDS—CARBON DALE 0 Did you notice something is wrong with the scores of the Birds? They are slowly but surely dropping. 51-31-12-6, but I guess it will be all right if they keep the others down. This last one was a close one, a little too close for comfort, but the Birds finally came through when they recovered a fumble on Car-hondale’s own twenty-yard line and pushed it across in four tries. Yattoni’s fine defensive game drew considerable comment along with his brilliant blocking. 0 RED BIRDS—BENTON 18 Sad! The Red Bird’s score fell again and this time it can’t fall any lower. The Ranger’s led by Captain Rhodes pushed a victory over the fighting Red Birds under a steady pour of rain. There was nothing sensational about the game except a short gallop of 65 yards by Rhodes, this, however, was near the last of the game when the Red Birds had lost about half of their spirit, which accounts also for the last twelve of Benton’s score. Well, anyway we’ll beat Benton next year, I bet. Seventy-six 1932 Red Bird FIRST FOOTBALL SQUAD Top row left to right—F. N. Johnston, coach; Matthews, manager; Wezalis. Yattoni, Allison, Trlni, Stankus, Metallic. Margelli, and Jones, manager. Middle row—Hiscbx, Pittman, Mace, Bowyer, Weaver, Jasinsky, Cash, Zichal, and Knash. Bottom row—Nicholson, Hogg. Sala, Tripp. Yates. Belbas. Bucousky, Lee. and Sawyer. ON FOOTBALL Much has been said as to the value of football, but certainly no one who has been on the field and worked as these boys have can begrudge it its hi«h place among school activities. The knocks, defeats, and victories received while playing football can have nothing but a beneficial effect towards developing a group of men better fitted to withstand the knocks of life which they will receive when they leave school. Certainly these boys should be congratulated for their work and perseverance in developing themselves into better men. Seventy-seven iMNHMUNiiiiiiHiiiiiimiiiuiMimimnMimi THE SECOND AND LIGHTWEIGHT TEAMS These teams are made up of the hoys of the school who wanted to play football hut who were either too light to practice with the first squad or were not quite good enough because of lack of experience. It is from these hoys that the future Ked Bird teams will be made. There were several boys on the varsity this year who formerly played with these groups. These boys deserve congratulations for their work in building up a better manhood and preparing themselves to push Red Bird athletics to a higher level when their time comes to be on the varsity. The second squad was under the guidance of Mr. Lee while the light weights were under Mr. McClintock.

His eye for the basket has placed him second high score man of the team, while his passes have helped secure many other points. “Paduke” is only a junior this year. Let’s go all-state next year Capt. “CHINK” CHARLES M ARGELLI, Guard Words are not needed to tell of this fellow. His actions on the floor have told you. We take off our hats to the Prince of F. C. H. S. “Chink” graduates this year leaving a vacancy in all branches of athletics. FRANK HISCOX, Forward Frank was only a sophomore this year yet he played splendid basketball. When in need of a forward, coach could always rely on Frank. Two more years should see him at the top of basketball fame. IIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIHIIIIIIHU4IIIU iiimuimiiiHiiiitiitiuiii _z_ 1932 Red Bird EARL POOLE. Center Earl is well known by the fans. His splendid work on the floor has been a credit to V. C. H. S. The seemingly impossible shots are his specialty. With another year as a Red Bird he should go places in a big way. GENE TRIM “GENO”, Guard It took until late in the season for coach to definitely pick a man for the guard position. “Geno” was the pick. He is deserving ol praise for his splendid defensive and offensive work on the floor. Keep your eye on him next year. ALFRED BELBAS “ALF”. Guard Another of Coach Lee’s squad to make good. “Alf” could always be depended upon when a guard was needed and played first rate basketball. Graduation takes “Alf’’ this year into a greater game. Good luck “Alf”. JOE SWINKUNAS “SLEEPY”, Center Full of fight and determination Joe made his hid for first team honors. That same fight and determination coupled with splendid ball playing placed “Sleepy” as a regular after mid-season. With one more year he is sure to go far. Eighty-one NWaamMIHIMHIIIMMIIMimilinimilllltlllNIIMIIIHIMHIIIIIIIMIIIIilllllllir 1932 Red JAMES LUCAS DEAD EYE”, Forward A recruit from Coach Lee’s last year squad “Dead Eye” has made good with a hang. His basket shooting has made him high scorer for the Red Birds. “Dead Eye” has another year and everyone expects big things of him. ALBERT MITIZIA, (iuard A new comer into basketball but his playing does not show it. Mitizia played wonderful basketball this season and when in the game played like a veteran. Mitizia has another year to do more for F. C. H. S. ANDREW TAYLOR “ANDY”, Forward At handling a basketball “Andy” is right there. His work under the basket and from the side lines was above comment. We lose “Andy” through graduation this year. KENNETH SAWYER “RED”, Manager If you happened to see some red headed boy rushing around frantically inquiring for cars to transport basketball players to games it was “Red”. This was his job coupled with that of seeing that the players were always equipped and bandaged. “Red” graduates this year. Eight y-tzvo llltMMIUlinilMMIIIININHI 1932 Red Bird CAGE RESULTS 12 RED BIRDS—GALATIA 36 No football boys out as yet. Galatia defeated us 36 to 12. Well, we haven’t had a lot of material out yet. Let’s wait awhile before getting discouraged. 10 RED BIRDS—I)U QUOIN 12 This was the lirst game for the football hoys and they lost. They were a little rough yet but showed much promise. Let’s give them another week and then see what happens. 22 RED BIRDS—VALIER 9 We didn’t have to wait a wc� ek. The boys seemed to snap out of it and gave Valier a good trimming. Lucas and ('apt. Allison were both going well. 18 RED BIRDS—DU QUOIN 17 We journeyed to Du Quoin Friday and returned a defeat they had given us before. A hard game hut the fellows won it. 18-17. Swinkunas played a fine game at center. 37 RED BIRDS— PINCKNEYVILLE 15 Say, is our team right? I guess so. We defeated Pinckneyville 37-16 and our second team played the last quarter. Margelli and Yates are playing fine defensive ball. 14 RED BIRDS—EAST ST. LOUIS 15 Well, we have taken in too much territory. The strong East St. Louis team lucked our fellows out of a hard-fought game. 15-14. We played the better ball hut old lady luck just wouldn’t smile. 18 RED BIRDS—ATHENS 26 Mr. Sullivan said this team was good. Now we know it. Those Athens Bull-dogs played good ball to defeat our fellows 26-18. Mitzie filled in a guard position and played a tip top game. 31 RED BIRDS—ZEIGLEK 23 Now we’re going again. Zeigler went down in defeat 23-31. but they made the fellows play for it. A fast, hard-fought game and we deserved to win. 5 RED BIRDS—BENTON 16 We went to Benton to grab a game from the rivals, hut. oh well! We didn’t get it. The boys did good playing hut Rhodes and his crew seemed to he just a little better. But why talk about it? UtimiimtttMIIMHNIIIIIIIIIIIIIUIIIIIIIIM 1932 Red Bird 7 RED BIRDS—JOHNSTON 13 We thought after losing the game last week to Benton we might have a little luck and we got it, a lot of bad luck. The big Indians put another Red Bird skin on their belts. The bloody injuns! Another defeat to forget. 33 RED BIRDS—MURPHYSBORO 17 Boy! We won a conference game. The Red Devils turned out to be merely bird seed. The Birds’ defense was good but their offense was excellent. That’s is kind of game to remember. 17 RED BIRDS—HARRISBURG 19 What a game and what luck! Oh yes, we got the bad luck again. It took an over-time period for the Bull Dogs to snag their catch so we had a little consolation. 10 RED BIRDS—HARRISBURG 12 Harrisburg came over this week to prove that they were really better than the Birds. After the Birds lost the other by a hair they called it bad luck, but it seems the Dogs have got the edge. 7 RED BIRDS—MARION 25 All the other games were close, at least, in playing ability, but this one was not quite so close, the Marion boys put in their second team, but we fooled them, we sent in ours. That held ’em. 23 RED BIRDS—MURPHYSBORO 14 Looks like the Devils are going lower on the list than their home. They took another dive last night when the Birds took pickins'. This game should give the boys a little hope. 25 RED BIRDS—HERRIN 30 We lost again. That sounds rather familiar now, I guess, but it was a close game. Remember that phrase? Kratch did most of the good work for Herrin or was it dirty work for us? 17 RED BIRDS—BENTON 25 Another hard fought game between fighters was fought and since someone had to lose we lost. We had a lot of trouble getting the tip-off because of a giant among the opponents, but we held them close. Eighty-four MMMWIHMHMinMMMMMIMItmiUimilinMIlMlIMIUIMIIINMIMIIIIUlM 1932 Red Bird 21 RED BIRDS—GALATIA 30 We had a good excuse last time for getting heat, but this time, we did not have an excuse except the tip-off again. Our players were also handicapped by height as usual. 18 REI) BIRDS—JOHNSTON 31 We had to tight the champs again last night for the second time and lost again. It seems that all our boys need is a few more inches added onto their heights. They were so short that they looked like dwarfs compared with their rivals. Hurley was instrumental in Johnston’s good showing, while “Paduke” did fine work for F. C. H. S. 33 RED BIRDS—'VAMER 12 Thar’s gold in them thar boys,” sez I. They romped circles around and over the Valier boys even substituting the second team, which was able to hold the opponents. Maybe they’ve lost that jinx, at last, we hope so. 14 RED BIRDS—HERRIN 18 Another close game with Herrin and another loss for the Birds. The boys, however, had one thing to gloat over, and that was that they held Kratch. The other time he made nearly all the scores. Lucas’s eye was good but not good enough. 28 RED BIRDS—MARION 17 Marion had the honor before of actually out-playing the Birds, but this time it was turned around. The Birds tore them to pieces. Looks like our team is getting “re-d ho-t”. This game gave them a lot of confidence for the coming district tournament. DISTRICT TOURNAMENT Eighty-five The Birds after steadily improving all season went into the tournament with good chances of winning. The first game was with Sesser. They won that with a score of 23-3. The second game was also a walk-away. It was with Ewing and was won to the tune of 27-9. Everything turned out as expected. Benton and West Frankfort met in the finals. There was a great number of fouls in this game though not dirty. Well, we might as well say it. Benton won again with a score of 22-12. We’ll beat ’em next year!

A. This year marked the institution of the Model Airplane Club in this high school though several high school boys have been active in model building for some time past. In the early part of the school year a group of students met with Mr. C. S. Summerville, manual arts instructor, formed the club and drew up a constitution. Those boys who, at the time of the club’s formation, had built and flown a model for a period of 15 seconds or more, were considered charter members. The charter members: William Malinsky. Don Barger, Roscoe Letter, Harold Nichols, Tom Sinks, Wayne Westray, and Clifford Boner. The following officers were elected for the year: Lieutenant Commander...........Clifford Boner Flight Commander..............William Malinsky Squadron Commander...............Donald Barger In the club there are three ranks arranged according to the merits of the planes built figured on the basis of duration of flight. The lowest rank is that of Cadets, the second is that of Pilots, and the highest rank is that of Aces. Three members have qualified for the rank of pilot—William Malinsky, Don Barger, and Darwin McMurtry. The activities of the club consist of active discussion of new ideas in model making and of new developments in the fields of commercial and military aviation, of competitive meets, and of inspection of the models built by the members during the year. A successful future is anticipated for the club by its members. One Hundred Seven iMiiiiimiiiniiMiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiinMiiiiiMi “F” CLUB This is only the second year for the “F club. Only those boys who have earned a varsity “F” in some form of competition are eligible for memberships. This year the membership totals 22.

A. A. The Girls Athletic Association was organized in 1927 under the sponsorship of Miss Thompson, whose good advice and loyal aid has practically made the G. A. A. of F. C. H. S. what it is today. The acquirement of Miss Groves as an additional sponsor this year has proven to he a big boon to us; since she has shown us how entirely capable she is of helping us up one more rung of the ladder of fame. The members of the G. A. A. praticipate in every sport that is of interest to athletes—swimming, tennis, baseball, basketball, soccer, horse-shoe pitching, etc. Nor are we girls left “holding the bag when it comes to bringing home awards. This year we won the sectional goal-shooting contest, which was participated in by every G. A. A. organization in Illinois.

The follow ini) is the story adjudged first place from a class-wide competition of studettts carried on under the Fnglish instructors of F. C. . The best story of each class teas sent to a committee, composed of Miss Hoye, Miss Dollins. and Mildred Lintner, who picked ”The Robbie written by a Senior girl, Mildred Smith, under the instructor ship of Miss Mikals, as the best. The story is here given : THE BOBBLE “Hello. Bob!” “Hello, yourself! Jimmy Wallace entered the room which he shared with his college pal. friend, classmate, and so forth. Boh Warren. “Say, old fellow, you're going to the masquerade hall tomorrow night, aren’t you?” Bob looked up from his magazine, startled by this untimely question. For a moment he made no reply, hut when Jim repeated the question and accompanied it by a pound on the back, he stammered uncertainly, “Why,—er—no, I don’t guess so. Jim.' “Good gosh, boy! You’re not going to the ball? Pray tell me. whose army is keeping you away?” “Well, you see it's this way. Jim.” answered Bob stalling for time, his voice bearing no hint of self-confidence, “I—I just got a telegram from home saying— my grandfather was dead.” He finished his sentence with a flourish similar to that of a child who has just spelled “cat” correctly for a fault-finding aunt. “Cut the funny stuff. Bobby! You know very well your grandfather died two years ago!” Bob cast a puzzled look in the direction of his friend, wrinkled his face until it assumed the position of a quizzical frown, and finally spoke slowly, choosing his words precisely as he uttered them. “That’s so.” But under his breath he swore, “How in the devil did you know that?” He uttered some guteral sounds meant for a laugh, but which resulted in a dismal failure in that line. “Folks must be trying to pull a joke on me.” The joke's on you all right. Now. I suppose you can go?” “No, honestly, Jim, I just can’t.” “What’s the mater now?” Jim demanded with an exasperated sigh. “We-ll”, Bob paused for thought. “You know mother’s had a weak heart for some time, and—and in the letter I got from home this morning. Dad said she was worse—and I—I ought to come home.” His finish was weak in comparison to the first attempt. “Robert Harold Gale, you dirty liar! You read that letter to me this morning and they were all 0. K. You haven’t been to Jake’s today, have you?” Then, with much concern. “Say, you haven’t been foolin' around in my trunk have you?” and he made his way in that direction. After reassuring himself of ‘its safe presence, he turned to Bob for an explanation of his strange behavior. Bob was treed and that hound of a Jim offered him no means of escape. “I don’t know what’s the matter with me,” he muttered. iiiiniimuiniiMiMiMiraiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiHHiiimmiiHHiiNiiiiHiiniiilfmniii 1932 Red Bird MlltIHIIIliHIIHINIIIIHIItMMMMII “Then you're going? 9 Jim pressed him on. “I’m going—to be George Washington Then, when he noted the startled hut satisfied look registered on Jim's countenance, in order to correct Jim's mistaken impression, he added. and never tell a lie. “Gee. that's swell. Bob! I’ll bet you go over big!' It was no use. Jim was deceived beyond question. Bob found himself happy over this fortunate deception. “Gee. Bob,’’ confessed Jim, “I hadn't intended to tell you about my costume, but since you told me. I'm going to be a circus clown.' Very little was said about the ball until the next evening. Then Jimmy brought it up. “Hey. Bob!’ “Hey. what?' came the muffled reply from the watery depths of the bath tub. “Can I come in?' “Indeed you may not laughed Bob. whereupon the door was yanked open and in strode Jim. “I just happened to think---- ' began Jimmy. “So that’s why I’ve smelled wood smoke all evening interrupted Bob. shaking with laughter. Jimmy remained very calm, and continued politely when his friend's overflow of spontanity had subsided somewhat, “—that it would be nice for us to go together tonight. ' “Sorry. Jim I’m downright sorry, but I can't. “Haven’t a date have you? ' queried Jim. “Yes.” answered Bob promptly, but when he thought of his role as George Washington, he quickly changed it. “Er—urn—I mean—no, I haven't got a date, Jim.” Then excitedly, “You haven’t a date, have you? Jim was puzzled by his friend’s actions. In fact he had been puzzled for the last two days. “No, I haven't a date ' he said with some heat, “but if you haven’t a date, why can’t we go together?” “I—I have some business to attend to before the ball. “Oh, of course, if you don't want me—' began Jim in a wounded tone. “You know it’s not that, Jimmy. I’d love to go with you, but I have to do this before. If it would help you to know—it has something to do with the ball. “Forget it, boy. I was only joking. I have some details to attend to also. Well, I’ll look for you there, old socks. promised Jim, as he left to finish dressing. “And I’m afraid you won’t find me” smiled Bob to himself. Jimmy finished dressing and left before Bob. leaving him the liberty of the room. He first shaved his legs, then pulled on a pair of chiffon hose, pulling only six threads with his untrimmed toe nails. In place of his usual underwear, he opened the lower dresser drawer and put on what he found in a box. Then he slipped on his suit, collected various articles from their hiding places and put them in a week-end bag. He walked a few blocks and turned in at a neat little bungalow. A middle-aged lady answered his ring. “Hello. Mrs. James! I’m here, bag and baggage!” Come in! Marjorie will be here in a moment. She's just finishing the dishes.’ explained the kind old lady who had been his mother’s college friend. Marge was her youngest married daughter. One Hundred Twenty-three 1932 Red Bird Hy, Marge, greeted Hob when she appeared in the doorway. “Hello, yourself, little boy,” returned Marge. “Come on up to my room, Ophelia.” “Can that ‘Ophelia’ stuff. Marge,” laughed Bob. “I was only practicing.” “Gosh. Marge, I’ve had a time of it! I acted on both your suggestions and he caught me in the lie both times. Then when 1 resolved to he George Washington and not tell any more lies, he thought I was going to mask as George. 1 tried once to set him straight, but I realized it would he better for him to believe that, so I shut up. Hut listen, girl, when I said that about father Washington he got real sentimental and told me how he was to be dressed!” “Honestly? I thought we were lucky when you discovered his favorite name was Ophelia, but now—the world is ours!” Marge led him up to her room. ‘‘I'll leave while you slip into this.” She went into the adjoining room while he took off his suit and struggled into a slip. “Hey, Marge, what’s the matter with this darned w hat-you-may-call-it?” Bob called disgustedly. ”‘So live that when thy summons comes ” quoted Marge, “‘you will be on hand to fill it’.” Hob had succeeded in getting his head in one of the arm holes, his right arm in the neck, and his left arm dangled uselessly at his side. Marge filled his summons after she had recovered from a shriek of laughter. Then she began the work of making him up. She powdered, rouged, creamed, combed, and fluffed. A blonde curly wig was produced from somewhere for Hob. by more or less moral means, had learned that Jim preferred blondes. The wig was adjusted and the finishing touches were put on his make-up. Marge went to a closet and returned with a lovely green satin evening gown. “I’m not so sure of his favorite color,” laughed Hob. but we can try green. Green goes well with your hair” answered Marge; so the green dress was fitted. The result was stunning! “With my crystal nt� cklace and bracelet you’ll be fixed capital, Marge praised; so they were added to the already lovely ensemble. My gosh. Marge, I’ve forgotten something!” “What?” “I haven’t any slippers.” Marge seated herself despondently on the bed and heaved a mighty sigh, akin to a groan. What on earth shall we do?” She tried a pair of her own, but they were too small, of course. She even tried her mother’s but in vain. Oh, Hob. how could you?” she wailed. Suddenly she began rummaging through a shelf in the closet. Bob watched in wonder; the spirit of hope burning in his eyes. Finally she appeared with a box, containing a pair of gold satin pumps. It’s a wonder I hadn’t thought of these sooner. Ray wore these once in a play” she explained at his query, as to their origin. They fit beautifully!” she exclaimed a moment later, “but can you walk?” The question was in tune for when he tried to walk, he stumbled and nearly fell. After a little practice, however, his walking improved greatly. Marge gave One Hundred Twenty-jour IIIIHIIMItlNIHtltlMIHIINII 11III Mill I MIIIIIIIIMmmMUMMINMI 1932 Red Bird him several pointers to add to his grace, and since he had acted in this role before he soon accustomed himself to it. Last of all he put on his yellow satin half-mask, slipped into an evening wrap of Marge’s and took his leave amid the final cautions and warnings. “Don’t forget the voice, Ophelia,” called Marge. “Don’t worry. Marge,” replied Ophelia in a pleasant, girlish tone. He hailed a taxi because he feared he would attract attention alone in the streets. Arrived at the ballroom he realized with pride that he held his own among the best of them. He detected Jimmy by his costume, and wove his way impreceptibly in that direction. When the orchestra struck up following intermission, he managed to be next to Jimmy who immediately asked him to dance. The inevitable happened! Why hadn't Marge warned him? When the music started. Bob, naturally, started to lead. Jimmy looked at him in amazement. Soon he discovered his mistake, and murmuring “Pardon”, yielded himself to Jim’s protecting arms. Without another mishap they danced for some time. Suddenly Jimmy asked, “Why did you do that?” Ophelia answered in a rather boyish and high-pitched but altogether acceptably sweet voice, “foolish of me. wasn’t it? You see, I dance a lot with my kid sister, and she always wants me to lead her, so I got in the habit. Sorry!” and he tried his best to make his eyes convey that fact under that darned old mask. “After all” he told himself, “that kid-sister stuff was true.” Ophelia was really a knock-out. Boys begged for dances—Jimmy was always at hand. He danced with several but mostly with Jimmy whom, he knew he had captivated. “Gee, but you’re sweet,” whispered Jimmy fondly, as he led him to a love-seat behind a protecting palm tree. “You haven’t told me your name.” “Oh. but it’s not twelve yet; I’ll unmask then,” came the low emotional reply. “Five more minutes” sighed Jimmy. “You may call me Ophelia, then.” “Ophelia? I love that name!” His arm pressed tighter around Ophelia’s slim waist. “Ophelia! Opehlia! I love you!” He pressed Opehlia to him in a crushing embrace and---kissed him. He was on the point of repeating the process when—dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong. dong. dong, dong, dong, dong. dong. “Masks off!” Bob heaved a sigh, and with a deft stroke jerked off wig, mask and all. “Bob!” Bob began laughing so heartily that tears streamed down his cheeks and smeared his make-up. “Gosh what a-----” began Jim in amazement, overcome by his mistake. “Bobble,” finished Bob. “Yes Bob. what a BOB-ble!!” MiiHiinmMmuiiiiNiiiniuuiiNiMiiMiNmniiiiiiiNiiimMHHimiiiiiuiiii iMtttNittnttiniiititiiiiiiiiniiiiiMiiiiiuiitiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiiMitiiuMiiiiHiiiiiii 1932 Red Bird iiiMiiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiminiiiitnmiiiiiiMHMniMiiminiiiiiiiiiii 1932 Red Bird Aiken, Frances .......

Possessions Noteworthy for Enduring Joy and Beauty . . . The appeal of fine jewelry is not merely a matter of money values. Even precious metals and rare stones are not necessarily desirable as jewelry. Black diamonds are very similar too. and nearly as costly as their scintillating brothers, yet valued only for their utility in cutting tools. There are rare metals valueless as jewelry. And many semi-precious stones are eagerly accepted for their own loveliness. It is beauty that counts, an inherent, enduring beauty embellished by the jeweler's skill and artistry, and enhanced by rarity. Come to this shop and see the many exquisite modern jewelry creations for every purpose that have been gathered from the workshops of the world —artistry and quality to please the most discriminating. and for every purse.
