Our deepest interest goes with you in your future endeavors. We realize that your education is not yet complete, whether or not you go to college. The latter may be the easier way, hut further learning can he acquired elsewhere. No one can force you to improve your minds hut we hope the urge to do so has grown on you in our schools. We trust you have learned how to obtain knowledge, how to think for yourselves, and how to arrive at logical conclusions. Having done these you may he expected to have the courage, independence, and force of character to stand for your convictions. This being true, the prime purpose of educationean enlight- ened citizenship ee has heen attained. ,Siam lg lfrwzr Rom miss :ini-s Tnusmoon, Pnittws, LUEBHING, runnin .S'iiw1illifm'.' suumc, swrrn, Juwoximz, PFENDER, uonrum, umwun Administration B. F. SHAFER Superintendent WE ARE ALWAYS PROUD of the young people who are graduated from our high school. We have a per- sonal interest in you. The teachers from the first grade through the high school grades feel that what the Class of 1937 is today is to a very large extent the result of their efforts. Your successes or failures will be sources of joy or disappointment to us. We would have you feel that even though you have been graduated by the Freeport Schools we stand ready to advise and counsel with you concerning problems which you may meet in the future. You have learned that education is an individual matter. Teachers and books cannot educate you. lt is only the reaction which you make to the opportunities provided by the schools, the home, and the community that determines the extent to which you have achieved. As you leave the Freeport High School I would have you believe that success or failure depends upon you and may I express the hope and belief that each one of you will make some contribution for the privilege of Q acfagzf having lived. I6 ,, I. Q 1 ' Administration L. A. FULWIDER Principal t ,ffl f . 5 jf' fiwff , Q, ,Q PERSONALITY TRAINING is one of the most important achievements of the student's education. lt not infrequently happens that a student may rank high enough in his studies to graduate from high school and college, but fail of success and happiness because of unimpressive or irritating manners. Dress, appearance, habits count everywhere. Initiative, imagination, a wholesome sense of humor, loyalty, aggressive industry, friendliness, a cheerful attitude, expressive conversa- tion, a reputation for sound judgment in making decisions, faith in one's self, genuineness of character revealed in conduct all are essential attributes of success- ful individuality, and of good sportsmanship in co-operation amidst intensive competition. Lacking these in the home or at Work means failure and an unhappy life. To possess them means success and the joy of living. To the self-critical and self- improving, school offers the opportunity for the all important training. Life demands it. Not wholly a gift at birth, personality is a most important individual educational achievement. The opportunities are everywhere, in corridors, class- rooms and in school activities. f Administration H. G. WELLS, the eminent English novelist and philosopher, has recently published a hair-raising horror story, The Ceoqzeer Player, in which he develops the thesis that education and knowledge have given birth to horrible ghosts which haunt the minds of men, menacing ghosts of fear and panic. The cave men knew nothing of the past, cared little for the future. lf he found enough to satisfy his needs for the day which was at hand, he was content and happy, with sufficient food and shelter, he felt security and safety. Modern man, who has searched the past and even dared to peer into the future, knows too well what is in store for him. He can, drawing his conclusions from the past, feel no safety, no assurance of security. He is haunted by fear, by forebodings of disaster. Such is H. G. Wells' dismal outlook for the educated and the learned. Education, the desire to learn and to know, has indeed made man more aware of the obstacles which stand in the way of attaining a life of happiness and security and achievement. The admission of those obstacles and the grim determination to overcome them and to find a life of fulfillment and accomplishment present a challenge no thinking person dares to refuse. To every senior I offer that challenge: that you grow strong and indomitable within yourselves, that you becomeimpervious to discouragement and defeat, that you conquer ghosts of fear and panic, and that ultimately you find 777 success and achievement.

As we entered the stage of F. H. S. and took our places in front of the backdrop of curricular activities, we were continually reminded of the non-importance of our status as it was viewed by other members of the company. But we waited patiently for our cues, and said our first lilies by electingllack Criddle as president of our troupe and Joyce Knodle and Virginia Horning as vice-president and secretary-treasurer. We didn't have much other business that year, but ably supported the leading characters of the other classes in all their big scenes. When we achieved the rank of sophomores our importance seelned greatly elevated. More respons- ible parts were taken by the active members of our class, and we let it be known that, although We were still mere understudies ofthe seniors, we would continue rehearsing so that when our big break came their places would be capably filled. 'Iohn Korf, Emerson Kailey, and Harold Evers were our class ofiicers for this act and they managed our affairs exceedingly well. The biggest event was our Sophomore Oratorical Contest. We had the largest cast that had ever taken part in this particular scene of sophomore life, and as a result presented an excellent performance. Waxing more dramatic as the year rolled on we elected Marilyn Sheetz and Kenneth Stein as our Cinderella and Prince Charm- ing, and they took their parts very well during the run ofthe senior carnival. Members of our group also achieved distinction in vocal and instrumental music and by enrolling and participating in numerous clubs and athletic activities. I .ff l 1 X. 4 s if .1 fro Tlw Offrrnrs R.

Class of 1937 But, just as Shakespeare wrote his climaxes in the next to the last act, we worked up to one of our own during our third year. By practically a unanimous decision Miss Beatrice Kell was chosen as our coach, and it was she who was directly responsible for the grand success of our succeeding per- formances. Walter Breymann, Betty Ann Ludolph, and Emerson Kailey took care of the managing end of our drama this year. They guided us safely through the maze of activities with a skill that gave us the needed encouragement to take over the whole show as seniors. Just as amateur actors are recognized and the good ones given better parts on the legitimate stage, so did the members of our class receive notice. In debate, music, and athletics we were particularly well represented. And behind the footlights we were especially effective when we presented Polly of the Circus as our class play with Walter Breymann and Doris Garnhart in the leading roles and a supporting cast of thirty- three. Our grand climax in the third act was reached when we gave the junior-senior prom with Rachel Walz as general stage manager. The Enchanted Forest was one set that even the most dis- interested member of the audience applauded. A snappy performance without missing a cue was the kind that the Class of '37 turned out during their senior year. As soon as the curtain was raised the company was called together to make some major decisions. Bob Moogk, Patricia Sleezer, and Don Freidag reigned as oflicers while Miss Kell was chosen as our adviser. Following up this action The Admirable Crichton was cleverly pro- duced as the senior class play. Patricia Sleezer and Roger Munson took the leading roles in this desert isle drama. The next big scene called for by the directors of this panorama of events was the Senior Barnyard Frolic. Jack Criddle and Dorothy Jean Koenig were chosen King and Queen of Freeport High. But not yet were the seniors ready to have the curtain rung down. They went after speech and other dramatic achievements with a will that depicts a truly energetic actor. It was the senior boys, too, who were directly responsible for the outstanding success of the athletic activities during the school year. These boys were: Jack Criddle, Emerson Kailey, Robert Swingley, Dawn Rutter, Andrew McBride, Kenneth Heimbuch, Robert Readeker, David Southwick, Harold Evers, Bill Hill- mer, Sam Abate, Bob Mellen, Tom Carpenter, Bill Staas, Orville Lafferty, George Gassman, Bill Peterson, Kenneth Stein, Frank Block, Frank Schroeder, Jack Wagner, Dick Riordan, Tony Amodeo, and Virgil Lawver. Finally, after successfully tending to all the phases of production, management, and eventual success, the seniors presented the 1937 issue of the Polaris as their final tribute to all those who have been such interested spectators, and who have enabled us to present a successful conclusion for our school-life drama that ended- TIME-fum: 11, 1957 PLACE-Freeport High .Ycbool EVENT-Grand opening of Life'J Drama -D.

Here in our Illinois Corn Belt, when the many-houred days of summer sunshine come, the old-time farmers insist that, if they go out into the fields at night, they can literallyuliear the corn a-growin' As the long green blades unfold, to an ear rightly tuned, Colne faint crackling sounds, the cries of Growing Pains from the stretching corn. And so this Junior Class of ours may sometimes, perhaps, have disturbed the staid Seniors and much respected faculty, for we most certainly have done a powerful lot of growin' between September '36 and June '37. ln May we most appropriately chose for our play Growing Pains , a colnedy depicting in realistic nonsense high school foolishness and fun. There were tVVCUEy-SCVCO in the cast with George Clark and Dorothy Arrasmith in the leading roles. Although most of the cast had not had much experience in such large productions, George Clark was one of the four characters in the State One-Act Play. At the beginning of the year, as true democrats, we called an election and chose Alan Adams presi- dent, Roscoe Haas, vice-president, and Richard Warner, treasurer. But in February we turned monarch- ists and proclaimed Edward Hoag and Ann Arganbright our king and queen. Thus we recognized the most popular boy and girl of the class. We had parties, both roller and ice skating festivities, for one the Odd Fellows' Temple was our floor, and for the other nature provided an ice-covered football held. Any assumption of dignity on the part of the young ladies disappeared when their feet went out from under them, and the skill of the boys was not always in evidence. There was also an auto dance at which every boy who parked himself was forced to pay a penny for his inactivity. A surprising display of manly grace resulted. We made an excellent record in athletics with Max Howe, Dale Meyers, Vvlayne Dirksen, Leland Reed, Bob Van Epps, Eugene Besemeier, Eugene Boynton, Bud Fishburn, Ed Hoag, Blaine Miley, August Ottenhausen, Alan Adams, Phenie Petta, Don Greier, Mernice Volkers, Bob Waggoner, Santo Amodeo, and Bill Cregan winning their letters. In the more scholastic field of forensics we were HOE lacking, with Ruth Irene Stoke, Dorothy Arrasmith, ilohn Balles, Kathryn Kincannon, Breard Fishburn, Margaret Freerksen, NVayne Dirksen, Richard Lebetsamer, Robert Collier, and Ed Hoag to do us honor. At the State Band Contest Wayne Dirksen was recommended for the national, and Nathan Bast, Robert Brown, and Bob Secker have all displayed much talent. At a nautical banquet and prom we completed the year, wishing the Seniors bon voyage as they sailed forth from High School Harbor on the S. S. Sclwlaicrlwip, a stout and sturdy bark that has stood the test of years. And as the last strains of music lilled the gym, which had been magically transformed into an upper deck, we reluctantly departed and resolved to be shipmates forever. Even with all these activities, our growth is yet far from finished. There are likely to be more growing pains, but we trust that next year, when the faculty considers us, they may hnd a worth while harvest. gB. Steenrod Tffr Offirirrf A, .mmis R. WARNER R.

NYISE A W My We Present the SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY 1 ALTHOUGH WE Sophomores are only halfway through High School, we are already taking an active part in school activities. One of our outstanding advantages has been the size of the class and our ability to work. Many committees have had candy sales, sponsored social hours and have worked in many other ways to earn money. So successful have been their efforts that our dues have been the lowest in school. Early in the year we chose james Girard for president, Carolyn Stoke for vice-president, and Bernice Breymann for secretary-treasurer. We have had reason to be proud of our choice, for they have proved to be capable and willing to do their work well. This year our candidates for King and Queen of the Barnyard Frolic werejack O'Donnell and Nancy Riordan. On February 16th we sponsored the Sophomore Heart Dance in their honor, and this proved to be such a success that it has been voted to he an annual Sophomore event. It was quite an elaborate matinee dance with hearts strewn about in true valentine fashion, and red streamers startlingly dis- guised the cafeteria. Refreshments were served at small tables along the side walls, and small bou- quets were bought for the sometimes blushing girls by their nonchalant escorts. An entertaining floor show was presented and then came the high light of the dance. The King and Queen marched arm in arm to their thrones and were honored with due pomp and ceremony. It is hard to say who had the better time-the guests of honor or the dancers. The Sophomore Oratorical Contest was also a great success. A large number of eager students entered and contrary to the usual custom the girls outnumbered the boys. Jeanette Cassidy won the medal for first place, Phyllis Garns was second and Philip Whiting was third. Quite a goodly number of Sophomores have been active in atheletics this year. They were George Petty, Perry Lafferty, Fay Knodle, Bob Kuchenmeister and Donald Pinnow. There are many Sophomores in the band, orchestra and vocal departments. Some took part in the opera and others have been on important committees. There are representatives from our class in most of the clubs in school. Our candy sales hald at the F. A. Read store brought in quite a good deal of money. Celia Fol- bridge was the chairman and appointed others of the class to take charge, and all the rest willingly donated candy. Some enterprising class members even sponsored an Amateur Hour. Although sev- eral contestants got the gong , they took it cheerfully and the program was greatly enjoyed by the audience. A Social Hour was sponsored on April 17th that helped many students over their attack of spring fever. Altogether we have earned quite a bit of money over and above our dues, and it has helped the class spirit to work together. Under the able direction of our adviser, Miss Cresap, we have had a most successful year. Al- though we did our best to make our candidates King and Queen of the Barnyard Frolic we lost to the Seniors. But we're not worrying-we have lots of time. All in all we feel its been quite an honor to be a Sophomore. And lots of fun! 'JEAN MURRAY The Ojficenrs B BREYMANN J omarm c, stores Razz' Um' K 0 11' T14 va V. CLARKE ll. AMliN'I' 'I'.

The class first elected as its capable leaders: Bob Hartman, president, Mary Jeanne Schirmer, vice-president, Joanne Hess, secretary and treasurer, and Miss Nelson as adviser. Under Miss Nelson's direction these officers have succeeded in helping the class to be well organized and business- like, and to raise funds for their activities. K Our class was proud of the fight it put up against the upper classmen in the race for King and Queen. Bob Hartman and Jean Beck, our representatives, were well supported even though the Seniors were triumphant as usual. Oh well, our time will come! In the fall many of our classmen reported to Coach Johnson for football. The boys worked hard all season, and even though few of them were seen regularly in games Francis Mordick, Clifford Fye, and Jack Boeke, Manager, received letters at the end of the term. The Freshmen have shown good musical ability in that many of them wore the new orange and black uniforms of the band, while others are members of the orchestra and chorus. Their ability in this direction will be ever more marked in the years to come. The Freshmen Girls Club gave a dance in the cafeteria after school which proved a most enjoyable affair. The room was gaily decorated with balloons of all colors, and candy was sold on the sidelines. The Freshmen play was the class's outstanding endeavor of the year. Two separate casts of Fresh- men presented the first and third acts while the second was given by a cast of Sophomores. For the play we chose one which has never been presented in our school before, Huckleberry Finn. Bob l-lowington, Virgil Sharp, Ellsworth Morris, James Witte, Dean Fryer, Glen Mogle, Marguerite Teare, Marilyn McCool, Norma Crockett, Mary Ennenga, Lorraine Zipsie, Mary Jeanne Schirmer, Shirley Morrow, Alice Vance, Frances Woods, and Frances Kurz formed the cast of Freshmen. Many Freshmen were to be found in the chorus and minor parts of the operetta this year, Chimes of Normandy. Next year and in years to follow many of them will no doubt be playing the leading roles. Besides our actors, many of the girls in the class put in long hours of hard work in making costumes which are a big thing in the success of any performance. The Freshmen were not only found good sports in the various activities into which they entered, and showed such line interest and aptitude, during the year which they have been in high school, but they have shown line scholastic standings. Many members of the class have been on the Honor Roll every time it has been issued, while others often were on it numerous times showing high aver- ages. We hope to find some of these people leading the Honor Rolls in the next few years. The Freshmen supported the upperclassmen in all their activities with excellent spirit this past year and show promise of proving to be capable leaders in the future. -ALICE VANCE The 0j'irer.r.'

MOOGK LE CERCLE FRANCAIS SEVERAL YEARS AGO the French Club was organized for the purpose of furthering the interest in the language and to familiarize the students with the country and the ways ofthe people. The meetings were held every third Wednesday in each month, and to be eligible for these meetings the students must have passed one semester of French and be continuing in more advanced work. The programs during the years 1936 and 1937 were devoted to French art, music, and literature. In February, 1937, a one act comedy in French, La Suprise d'Isidore , was presented by the third year students. The cast consisted of Mary Rocho, Sara 'lane Best, Margery Cramer, Fred Wurtzel, and Milton Chatters. ln Qctober Mrs. Bidwell gave a very interesting talk in French on Paris, This talk enlightened the students in many Ways, many of them.asked questions about Paris. During the year lifty students participated in the meetings, this making the largest 1 . number of members since the club was organ- ized. Under the leadership of Miss Yenerich, many interesting and unusual programs were presen ted. TIM 0l7'iter.r of the Frentli Club were IH' faflazzm' Prafidelzt ....., .........

CAPUNE, EL Cl RCULO CASTELLANO EL CiRcULo CASTELLANO was established in Freeport l-ligh School for the purpose of furthering interest among students of Spanish in the Spanish speaking countries and in the customs and language ofthe people of those countries. To be eligible for membership a student must have had one semester of Spanish and also be enrolled in an advanced class. The Spanish Club has been very active for the past year and has been one of the few clubs to main- tain almost one hundred per cent attendance throughout the year. Many very delightful programs were enjoyed by the club owing to the cooperation of the program committee: Mary Jane Rock, chairman, Jeanette Cassidy, and Sara .lane Best. One of the most inter- esting programs given throughout the year was a speech by Mr. Lee Madden on his trip to South America. The meetings which are held the second Wednesday of each month are always followed by games and refreshments. The committee responsible for the social hour was composed of Virginia Bast, chairman, Geraldine Graff, and Elleen Bolender. ln February twenty students tool-: their oaths and were admitted to the club. Much credit for the advancement of this club is due to the efforts of the adviser, Miss Schmidt, for encouraging membership and helping plan the interesting and educational programs. As a climax to this successful year, the Spanish Club held its annual picnic at Krape Park. Prefizlent ...... ..., C IIARLES JOHNSON Vice-President ...., ....

CREGAN MASK 8a WIG Ting oIiJIsCT of this organization is to stimulate and promote an intelligent understanding and interpretation of the best in the held of drama, thus deriving the greatest amount of pleasure and benefit. Membership in this club is obtained through tryouts which are conducted twice each year. The applicant for membership must dramatize a selected skit and present it before a group of ''Mask-and-Wiggers. The membership is limited to Juniors and Seniors. Under the capable leadership of Walter Breymann, the club has been guided through the 1936-37 school year. There was an initiation at Krape Park which was conducted successfully under the leadership of Dorothy 'lean Koenig and Rodger Coons. The November meeting was the occasion of an unusually interesting talk in which Miss Habein summarized her trip through European countries. A joint meeting with the Philo Club with an outside speaker was the feature of the May meeting. The Christmas party was held on Decem- ber zz.. An original skit in which R. P. Moogk, Paul Steffen, and Emerson Kailey participated was a most unusual presentation. The pupils of Ruth Irene Stoke rendered a costume dance, and the program was con- tinued with the play, The Light of Christ- mas Dawnsf' The cast was: Walter Brey- mann, Suzanne Leavy, Margaret Freerksen, Patricia Peasley, Robert Collier, Jane Win- chell.

The fact that Freeport High School is one of the pioneers in the education of girls through ainew course ofstudy which includes a required year of clothing and one of foods in place of a year ofGeneral Science makes the work of this clulw important in the program of the school. The importance of the career of homemaking is thereby emphasized and the opportunity to make interesting study of Home Management taken up through the club in a more informal way than through class room study is the lwasis upon which this work is carried on. A panel discussion on the sulwiect What Every Girl Should Expect to Take With Her When She Leaves High School provided opportunity for an interesting meeting. Both girls and women teachers carried on the discussion. The requirement for entrance into the clulw is an average of 88 in Home Economics subjects with one year's instruction in either. The clulw ollers the opportunity for girls interested in vocations especially suitalwle to women and particularly that of Home Man- agement which is, after all, the greatest of all vocations to exchange ideasg enjoy the fellowship of similar interests and create a social organization which adds to the elli- cient course as ollered hy the school.

SENIOR HI-Y CLUB HI-Y Creed: TO CREATE, maintain, and extend throughout the community a high standard of christian character. The Hi-Y Club's membership consists of an interested group of Seniors, Juniors, and Sophomores who hold weekly meetings at the Young Men's Christian Association. A program of speeches, debates, games, and parties are arranged for each meeting. Among the men to speak this year at the club were Mr. Sleezer, Mr. Paul Seitz, Mr. Andrew Tracy, Mr. Marvin Burt, Mr. Mensenkamp, Mr. Messing, and Mr. Bitting. The activities Of the club, however, are not narrowed down tO personal achievements. Football folders were passed Out at the games and a movie was shown at the high school. The club also earned money for the Y. M. C. A. in their linance drive and helped the city give food tO the needy. In December three boys were sent to Danville, lllinois to attend The Older Boys' Conference. Much credit must be given to two men who guided the club in its activities, Mr. Merle Dennis who acted as adviser tO the club the first part Of the season, and Mr. Thomas Moers who was adviser the last part. The boys were very disappointed when they learned Mr. Dennis was tO leave them and go to Chicago to work. Mr. Moers, how- ever, took over the club to the satisfaction X of all the members.

MCCARTY, SECRETARIAL CLUB Bizcausia or Tun MANY students interested in secretarial work the Secretarial Club was newly organized to broaden the students' knowledge of shorthand and typewriting and to better prepare them for future positions. Alljuniors and Seniors taking typing and shorthand and having obtained an average of eighty- tive or over, may become members. During the second semester thelluniors who are eligible are taken in as pledges. Among the various activities ofthe club the lnembers sponsored an assembly on April 19, featuring Mr. Golf, mathematics professor at Whitewater State Teachers College. His talk was based on inathe- matical conceptions and was intensely interesting and very educational. He gave a demonstration of rapid calculations and a discussion of mathematical fallacies. The club also visited the ollice of Crum and Forster where the members had a glimpse of oflice routine and oflice equipment. At the April meeting Mr. Schneider from the Western Union discussed the kinds of telegrams and telegraph services. ln May an enjoyable picnic climaxed a successful year for the Secretarial Club. Under the guidance of Miss Clara Gramse, the faculty adviser, the club ended its year of pleasant and educational activities. The splendid work accomplished by the club in its lirst year can be attributed largely to the efforts of the officers who were as follows: 'n, 4, Prerideflt ........,........

VVIII-IRI' llfmaruy Mwfbrr The tchestra ORCHESTRA THE ORCHESTRA went into intensive training this year in preparing for competition in the orchestra contest in the near future. lt was the usual source for musicians when the dramatics department needed a pit orchestra, and the opera orchestra worked as hard at the production OfHCl11ITlCS of Normandy as the cast itself, rehearsing with the leads even before the choruses did. The whole group took part in the Open House program in the fall and the Christmas Ves vers' service. Programs were given at assembles for the Jr. High and Sr. High School. The climax o the year's work was the concert given at the Annual Spring Festival. To one who really appreciates this type of music, a great improvement is noticeable in the final concert as compared with the programs given in the early fall. Mr. Kubitz brings forth the finer qualities of music through the orchestra and much credit is due to his extra Work in training the string section twice a week.

Haunted castles, gay peasant maidens, a lost marchioness, and an insane miser added thrills and an unexpected turn of events to this legend of the hells. Serpolette, the street flirt and village gossip, thought she had royal blood in her veins and even went so far as to acclaim herself Marchioness on very little proof. But as she returns in all her assumed glory, she is very crestfallen when she discovers that Germaine, and not she, is the long lost March- ioness. Old Gaspard, who is supposedly crazy, brings to light the true state of affairs and unites the happy pair. So, the chimes that first hring sadness, ring out gaily with great ioy for the happy ending of the story of the Marquis and his hride. The results achieved by the constant guidance of Miss Johnsen and the help of Miss Yenerich were line. ln The Chimes of Normandy melodious voices blended and the unusual talent of the soloists was revealed.

TuA'r Tins quotation expresses the meaning of the popular, well-known organiza- tion, the A Capella Choir. The group is made up ofthe girls in Trelvle Clef A and the Boys Glee Club and has approximately seventy voices. It is well-known for its lovely tone quality and good pitch, things rather hard to develop in such a large group of high school voices. The A Capella Choir, as the old Latin word chapel implies, is singing without accompaniment, All early chapel singing was unaccompanied, and the choir has tried to keep that dignity of religious music. The choir presented their work at the Christmas concert, the May Festival, and various concerts around the city in different churches and programs. Their final appearance of the vear was at the Baccalaureate service at Emhury Church on .lune 6. Wine-colored rohes, provided for the choir with the help ofthe advanced sewing classes, add much to the ellectiveness of the group's appearance. Since only the hest voices are used in this group, it has developed quite a few excellent soloists and leaders for the whole department. To Missilohnsen, the director, is given all due credit and appreciation for the success ofthe organi- zation and its music. 11 i . .4 .3 fl ll Rau' Om Rfm' Tim R014' Tfirra' Rau' fwfr -1 LUUK K, DAul.taR15N M.

The Senior Pla THE ADMIRABLE CRICHTONL THE CLASS or '37 presented james M. Barrie's The Admirable Crichton in the Consistory Auditorium, November Lo, 1936. The plot portrays the status of a group of aristocratic English people whose cruising yacht is de' molished in a wreck on the waters, and the passengers are cast onto an uninhabited desert island. Crichton, heretofore holding the lowly position of head servant of the household, becomes because of his adaptability to the surroundings, commander-in-chief of the situation. A romance between Lady Mary and Crichton is started and continues until a rescue Ship chances to spy the distress signal. Upon the return of the group to England, Crichton abandons his romantic ideas and once again becomes the perfect butler. Tbe tart of claaracterf fallazw. The Admjrable Critbton. . . Hou.

The comedy, written in three acts, portrays the adolescent age. lt reveals both a new and old- fashioned slant at unsophisticated youth as it wavers uncertainly on the wings of sixteen. The problem children in the play are George and Terry Mc lntyre CGeorge Clark and Dorothy Arrasmithj Their father Qwayne DirkseIID is a stolid university professor, who is emphatically in favor of laying down the law. Their mother CMargaret Freerksenl feels the weight of the responsibility on her shoulders as a rather small burden, and lets them have their fling. They do. George gets a rattle-trap of a ear. Terry alters her coiffure, buys high-heeled slippers, and a red evening gown. And the bewildered parents throw a party for them. The party is a well-attended affair, and the parents try to eliminate all present day tom-foolery. A great time is had by all, including the spectators who, by the time that the curtain has dropped on the stage floor with a final thud, are exhausted from laughing.

GEORGE CLARK Aww Korozfifz. . . . . . .PATRICIA SLEEZER Tnu Aisovu cAs'r coached by Miss Rachel Whitfield carried off the honors for the drama department of Freeport High School in the district contest at DeKalb, Illinois on April 16. At the state drama festival at Champaign, Illinois, Patricia Sleezer and Merle Schneidewind were selected for the all-state cast. Only ten are included in this group. The play was written by the Russian authoress, Ruth Giorloff. An ollice in the Kremlin is the scene of this exciting drama, and it takes place in the present time. One of the four characters is a Soviet soldier CGeorge Clarkl who enjoys his privileges in new Russia, but another player, a scrub-Woman QPatricia Sleezerb, remembers some of the glory of the ancient regime, and maintains some of her loyalty to it. The third is a young secretary CMary RochoD, who is forced to accept the inevitable, and now is serving an important official in the Soviet party. In this situation, this oflicial CMerle Schneidewindj has to judge the girl, a former aristocrat, who has been put under arrest for concealing jewels. Finally they recognize each other as childhood Sweethearts, and plan to leave Russia and elope. Their escape is made possible by the heroic sacrifice of the scrub-woman, who proves herself a highness too, by giving them her passport and clothing to get them by the guard unrecognized. c eech DEBATE TRAVELLING A distance of zgoo miles, participating in ninety interscholastic debates, and placing a larger number of students in speech tournaments than ever before, Freeport High School Speech Department had an unusually active season. Opening the season was the two-day tournament at Wheaton College where Freeport placed second only to West Aurora, leaving a path of thirty-two schools and one-hundred sixteen debaters gasping in their wake. The first negative team, consisting of john Korf and Walter Breymann, won a 3-o decision over a talkative but ineffectual Elgin team to enter the finals, making a total of seven debates won and but two lost for the tournament. The first affirmative team, composed of Edward Hoag a11d Patricia Sleezer defeated a strong Mendota team in the quarter finals to total five wins and two losses. After starting the squad on a winning course, Mr. Craw- ford accepted a position at University of Illinois, and Mr. Bitting became his able successor. It was at this difficult transition point that Freeport lost two split decisions to Rockford, tying with West Aurora for third place. The four speakers next entered in the National Forensic League at Lincoln, where schools were eliminated after losing three contests. Freeport showed an excellent standing by continuing to the semi-finals, leaving a total of three wins and no defeats for the affirmative, and three L-1 decisions lost for the negative. Paralleling these victories was the Sub District meet where Freeport placed third. This qualified us for the District meet at DeKalb, where the negative and affirmative each won two and lost one to qualify for the finals. As their last debate of the season, the affirmative came through and ad- ministered a sound trouncing to our age-old rivals-Rockford! The negative lost a close decision to the state winners, Elgin, placing Freeport second in the tourney. Also participating in interscholastic debates were the following students, some coming back-to insure a promising squad for next year: john Balles, Margaret Freerksen, ,lack Stephenson, Katherine Kincannon, Paul Steffen, Robert Collier, Harlan jeffrey, Carl Swartz, Wilmar Bohnaker, Wayne Dirksen, and Breard Fishburn. Particularly proud is Freeport High School of their members and degrees in the National Forensic League, a nation-wide honorary speech association. The highest degree awarded to any high school student in the country is that of Distinction, to be gained only after earning one-hundred points in speech work. Qualifying four speakers for this degree reflects credit not only on the students themselves CWalter Breymann, Patricia Sleezer, Edward Hoag, and John KorfD but also on their coach, Mr. Bitting. Walter Breymann, President of the Freeport Chapter of the N. F. L. has gained two-hundred and hfty points in speech work while Patricia Sleezer, Vice-President, has two hundred and thirteen to her credit. Debate awards in the form of small silver pins, were earned by the following students: Walter Breymann, Patricia Sleezer, Edward Hoag, John Korf, Jack Stephenson, Margaret Freerksen, John Ballcs, and Katherine Kincannon.

GARNS C0455 NIGHT AFTER NIGHT preceding the an- nual Sophomore Oratorical Contest, anyone chancing past high school would have had occasion to see lights burning in both Coach Bitting's and Coach Crawford's rooms. Night after night the weary but triumphant sophomore orators wended their ways homeward after a grueling and painstaking practise. SOPHOMORE ORATORICAL CONTEST The fruition of all these many evenings of labor was the big event-the Sophomore Oratorical Contest, which was divided into four individual contests because of the unusual number participating, with the winners of each entering the final round. In the first contest, Celia Folbridge, with her excellent presentation won the gold medal, while Philip Whiting ranked a close second. In the second contest, Phyllis Hermann came through with banners flying and Barbara Chatters ranked very high to receive second. In third contest, Jeanette Cassidy was outstanding with her very moving oration, and Robert McCurdy ranked second, while Phyllis Garns received third. The fourth and final contest, in which all the recipients of awards in previous contests were to participate, was held after weeks of intense grilling by both coaches and students. Jeanette Cassidy with her outstanding and exceedingly effective deliverance of her stirring oration on A Nation's Character was awarded the banner with Champion Sophomore Orator printed across it. Ranking a very close second was a girl who, with Jeannette Cassidy, is perhaps one of the greatest hnds of the year. Phyllis Garns, because of the arresting and unusually fine qualities in her delivery brought out a responsive note in her audience with her persuasive oration on Arlington 1936 and received the silver medal. Philip Whiting received the third award. l B. CHATTERS K. HILDEBRANDT P. HERMANN R. MC CURDY Speech Events A W.

There Dorothy Arrasmith received first and Walter -A Breyniann second to give Freeport first place and another cup to adorn our shelves. The next contest of merit was the National Forensic League tourney held at Lincoln, where Freeport entered two contestants in each event. Representing Freeport in Extemp was Walter Breymann who undoubtedly was the outstanding speaker of the group, for he was the only one to enter into the finals, where he received fifth place in the State. Ed Hoag, a newcomer to the ranks showed a remarkable standing by continuing to the final round, placing him ninth in the State. , Cf in f D. Aiuusmirn gy K X Kf- Representing F. H.

HILLMER R, SWINGLEY COACH WEBER HE AV YWEIG HTS ON SEPTEMBER rmsr, a most promising squad answered the call issued by Head Coach, Dean johnson. In a little over two weeks of intensive drill, he and Howard A. Weber, line coach, placed a rugged, speedy team against a strong Dubuque eleven for a 13-6 victory. McNeil and Lafferty starred in the backfield. The line did exceptionally well-Winkler outstanding. During the next week infantile paralysis marched through the squad taking Louis Winkler, a senior varsity tackle, and Bill Schmelzle, a substitute center. Louis was a tower of strength and his friendship and playing was sincerely missed by all. A sea of mud greeted our varsity at Eusf Moline. Neither team scored. The line play of the Pretz was encouraging, especially that of Cliff Fye, a freshman. Captain Jack Wagner also turned in a line defensive game. The following Friday, we beat Lufulle-Peru, our first Big Seven competition, I9-6. In the first six minutes we scored twelve points. From the forty, Mac winged one to Bob Readeker who was stopped a yard short ofa goal, Mac plunged it over. Before the fans were settled Mac, with the rest of the team blocking, gave them a thrilling 60 yard demonstration of open-field running. In the and quarter, the Cavalier secondary yielded to the lure of our decoys leaving Red alone to be the recipient of a pass from for another toucher. Reed made the P. A. T. D. kick perfectly. In the last quarter La-Salle-Peru scored once. The adverse weather conditions proved to be quite detrimental at Wert Aurora. There we were given a demonstration on how to play football on a muddy Held by a victorious West High team. We came out of the game with many injuries, a soaking C27-OD, and much Wisdom. l High School in 1936 TAKING EAST AURORA Following the deluge we met Wert High of Mfzr!Z.ro11. Instead of being a gentle zephyr it turned out to be a hurricane that we couldn't handle. Result: we lost 47 to 11. foliar Tozwzflfip High Sclmal, past Big Seven Champs, defended the title by beating us in the first half. The second half we came back and scored six points but their Z4 point lead was too much to overcome. The line play of Fye and I-leimbuch was exemplary. This game ended a three game slump that shattered the Orange and Black Championship aspirations. However, the following week Freeport rose to heights not achieved in ten years. This achieve- ment was the beating of Rockford 13 to 6. A pass-lateral play from Mac to Meyers to Lafferty netted us a gain from mid-field to the three where Mac plunged it over. Reed's kick was good making the score 7 to o. Later, George Petty, a guard, recovered a kick blocked by Eye and raced twenty-six yards to another touchdown. Rockford scored one touchdown ending the game 13 to 6. The line play of the Pretz was spectacular and that of Cliff Fye, an inspiration. Against the once-defeated Elgin the varsity finished 7.5 to 15. The Maroon started out into a 7 to o lead, but the Pretz settled down and Mac threw a long one to Meyers. Reed smashed it over. The second one was a sweet pass from Mac to Perry. Perry made the next seven points. The last one was a pass from Mac to Red. The finale of the season was a very thrilling one played against the undefeated Em! Azzrorfz Team. Readecker scored on a pass from Mac. Reed made the point. A determined power drive netted the Pretz another goal and extra point. East scored on two long runs, The game ended I4 to iz which gave the Orange and Black I-leavies second place in the Big Seven, the best it has been in a decade. Seniors playing their last game were: Captain 'lack Wagner, George McNeil, Robert Readeeker, Kenneth Heim- buch, Virgil Lawver, Emerson Kailey, Bill I-Iillmer, Art Meinders, Bob Swingley, and Cliff Fye who will exceed the age limit the next fall. Ten of the squad were on all-con- ference selection with Fye, I-leimbuch, and McNeil on the first team. The remaining lettermen are: Leland Reed who was elected Captain for next fall, Ed. Hoag, G. Petty, P. Laffertv, D. Myers, B. Miley, and August Ottenhausen. THE COACHES II II F ootball at Freeport Firrt Rau' A. MCBRIDE E. BOYNTON S. ABATE E. DOWNING B. MELLEN A. ADAMS P. PETTA B. STASS O.

KINTZEL LIGI-ITWEIGI-ITS FAciNo A Toucan nine-game schedule that had no breathing places in it, and a shortage of capable linemen, Milton E. Schwager and his two aides, Art Patrick and Bill Kintzel, had to utilize all their resources to produce an acceptable team Cin a very short timel to meet Mt. Carroll. The squad was made up of nine lettermen and many less experienced lads who were willing and ambitious. There were many competent backs to fill all the posts, but the line, especially the middle of it, was ruined by graduation or excessive weight. It was, however, a better-than-average aggregation that wore our colors against Mr. Carroll here in our season's opener on September 18. The Little Pretz were playing against a hfteen-pound per man weight handicap. Mt. Carroll came up seeking aveng- ance for a 17-7 beating last year, but we failed to yield to them and again beat them 7-o. In the second quarter, Eugene Downing made a reverse over right tackle for two yards and a touchdown. Andy McBride took a pass from Sam Abate for the point after touchdown. Their attempts at a come- back were of no avail. Winnebago had a comparatively heavy team also, but it only availed them a I3-O loss by our Pretzel- ettes. The hrst score was made by Gene Downing on an end run. A pass, Sam Abate to Bob Mellen, was good for the point. Sam Abate was the hardhitting full back and turned in a good defensive game. In the second quarter Bob Mellen scored on a reverse. High SChool in 1936 40 YARDS T0 A TOUCHDOWNJ Bill Staas and Sam Abate were elected Co-Captains by vote of the players. The competition for some of the regular positions was very intense. The days preceding the game against LaSalle-Peru were filled with intensive drills which ended in a 13-7 victory. The first score was made in a forty- two yard advance that Sam Abate ended when he plunged the two yards to a goal. The pass for point wasn't completed. The L-P team opened up a passing attack that netted them a goal and point. The Pretzelettes waited until the last seventy-two seconds of the game to open up from the twenty-one yard line for a melodramatic, hair-raising finish. Score: I3 - 7. The next week Wear Aurora handed the Little Pretz a 2.1-7 beating. During the game Sam Abate was injured and Shadow Mordick was inserted in his place. Shadow proved to be quite a find. The lone Freeport goal was brought about by a punt that Phenie Petta blocked and Don Greier caught back of the goal. The Orange and Black ran wild against a heavy Madison Wert team. The diminutive Shadow made up the bulk of the 33-12. score with his passing. In the line Knodle and Greier turned in fine performances. Joliet Township High School gave the Sehwagermen a rather serious setback. The defense wasn't functioning properly. Result: 7.6-o. Petta and Mordick were outstanding. The Rablets, standing second in the conference, were meat for the Lights. An inspired F. H. S. team took the honors, 17.-7. Sammy scored the first goal after a 43 yard advance by Shorty Adamsg the other was a Mordick to Mellen aerial with a beautiful catch on Mellens' part. Both of the goals were in the first half, while the second half was devoted to stopping Rockford. Elgin barely nosed out a 7-6 victory in a game that almost set a record for penalties. Failure to take advantage of early scoring opportunities caused the defeat. However, in the closing quarter Downing scored after a march from mid-field had been made. The extra point was incomplete. Against Earl Aurora the Lights were very evenly matched. The game was battled out in mid-field with neither team scoring. The Seniors who played their last football for F. H. S. were: A. McBride, B. Mellen, D. Riordan, B. Staas O. Lafferty, and T. Carpenter. The other lettermen Petta, Knodle, Boynton, Biesemeier, Volkers, Amodeo Adams, Miller, Downing, Mordick and Greier. THE CO ACHES II COACH SCHWAG ER I2.0 Basketball HliADED BY Co-CAPTAINS Bill Peterson and George Gassman, four lettermen answered the call of coach Milt Schwager. The other two were ,lack Criddle and Leland Reed. The heavies were strengthened considerably by the addition of two lightweight lettermen in Bob Van Epps and Bill Cregan. Other prospects who were out practicing faithfully were Ken l-leimbuch, Frank Schroeder, George Clark, Orville Lafferty, Wayne Dirksen, and Joe Fusco. Gassman was lost to the team in February due to graduation. ln an assembly at the end of the year the following received letters: Co-Captains Peterson and Gassman, Criddle, I-leimbuch, Reed, Van Epps, Schroeder, Dirksen, and Cregan. Dec. 4, 1936AThe first game of Freeport's daffy schedule was with the runners-up of last year's Wisconsin State Champions, Beloit. The Freeport quintet were licked 57. to 7.o. Der. 11, 1936-The Pretzels next engaged a weak but fighting Dubuque team. Freeport was given a scare emerging with an 18 to 17 win after Gassman's last minute goal. lt was a very rough and poorly played game on both sides. Der. 1X, 1936fThe third home game of the Pretzels was with East Aurora. Freeport led at the half by two points but the second half onslaught of the Aurorans was too much for the Schwagermen and they were beaten by the score of 7.8 to 7.5. Peterson, Cregan, and Gassman led the scoring for Freeport with six points each. Dec. 23, 19364With only five days rest the pretzels played West Aurora. The Freeport team dis- played a good brand of ball by defeating West Aurora by the score of 38 to 31 before a large holiday crowd. Many fouls were called with two regulars going out via this route. Van Epps led the majors with eleven points. Der. 28, 19367,-l.-ll1C pretzels played their first road game and lost to Elgin 35 to 33. The majors played good ball in the second half after trailing 19 to 9 at the half. A last minute basket, Elgin's small gym, and the stopping of the timer's watch all contributed to Freeport's defeat. Gassman led the pretzels with ten points. fan. X, IQ37fTl'1C pretzels came back and played Rockford on their home floor. The Freeport heavies were never behind after the first basket was made by Gassman. The defense of the majors was almost perfect and they won out 19 to 7.1. Peterson led the scoring for Freeport with ten points. fun. lf, 1937fAfter a long ride down tojoliet the pretzels dropped a hard fought contest, 18 to 16.

Basketball Six LioH'rwEioH'rs answered the call of their new coach Art Patrick. Two of these went up to the heavyweigh ts within a few days of practice. Breard Fishburn, Andrew McBride, Dawn Rutter, and Bill Staas were the four lettermen to be seen in action in the lightweight ranks. McBride and Rutter graduated in February and could only help their teammates for a half year. Other prospects who made good include Nlernice Volkers, Bob Waggoner, Don XVaggoner, Allen Adams, Howard Beuscher, Bob Kuchenmeister, Dave Southwick, and Bill Abbott. ln an assembly at the end of the year the following received letters: Co-Captains Fishburn and McBride, Rutter, Staas, Southwick, Volkers, Adams, B. Waggoner, and Kuchen- meister. Dec. 4, 1936fThe lightweights opened their season by playing an experienced Beloit reserve squad and lost by the score of 7.8 to 16. The weight and height of the Beloiters handicapped the Freeport minors. Dec. Il, 1936-TBC Freeport ponies played an inexperienced Freshman-Sophomore team from Dubuque and had an easy time defeating them QI to 11. With two iuniors, Fishburn and Volkers leading the way the lights looked like a good Contender for conference championship. Der. 18, 1936-The Freeport pretzelettes started off on the right foot in conference play by defeat- ing East High of Aurora 15 to ig in an overtime. Rutter was the hero in this game by sinking it in the last minute and then making the winning basket in the overtime. Dec. 23, 1936fAfter live days of rest the lights kept their conference slate clean by defeating West High 7.1 to 13. McBride and Fishburn paced the pretzel minors with seven and live points respectively. Dec. zX, 1936AThe Freeport minors met Elgin in their first road game of the year and first con- ference defeat of the year. They lost by the score of LS to 14 as Waggoner missed a free throw in the last fifteen seconds of the game. Play was rough as two Freeport guards WC1'1t out on fouls. Fishburn and McBride led the pretzelettes scoring with six points each. jan. 8, l9377ThC minors played Rockford after the vacation and beat their rivals ll to zo. The Freeport team was not hitting the hoop the first half but they came out in the second half and out- scored their opponents. Fishburn led the lights with seven points. jan. If, 1937--The lights went down to Joliet in first place and they meant to stay there as they beat the Joliet ponies ll to 19.

The first half a11d third quarter were slow and ragged but the pretzelettes came to life in the last quarter and won the game from a taller but less experienced Harlem live. jan. 29, 1937--The Freeport lights traveled to East Aurora and took the second conference defeat in a row 17 to 16. They couldn't seem to get going while East High was making a high percentage of their shots. Andy McBride and Dawn Rutter played their last game because of eight semester ruling.

Freeport was leading ll to 9 with but a little over a minute to play when Dubuque sank two long shots in a row to send the Freeport team into defeat. Adams and Fishburn both had four points to lead the scoring. Feb. 19, 1937-The pretzelettes snapped their losing streak by beatingjoliet by the score of 2,0 to 2.7. They made a great rally in the last half to score LS points to 'Ioliet's io. Volkers played a very good game and led the scoring with twelve points. 15111. zo, I93f'iTllC minors closed their season with a loss to LaSalle minors by the score of 56 to 2.7.

From the team which won second place in the Big Seven, Kinert, Musser, Butler, johnson, Best, and Cremer have graduated. The lettermen returning were Waldon Roe, half miler, Wilber Keil, quarter milerg and Frank Block, sprinter. About one hundred and ten boys reported for track as spring football practice was moved ahead. After three weeks of inclement weather the team was able to go outside for a week's practice before the first minor meets. Freeport conquered Pocufonicu and Winnebago by large scores, The first major meet was with the very well balanced Dubuque team who won it 90 to 51. George Cloud was high point man for Freeport. The next meet was with jonewille which Freeport lost 61 to 57. as the field event men failed to come through. Peterson, Block, and Heimbuch led in points. Sterling was the next opponent at home and Freeport won 81 M to 405. Don Pinnow and Leland Reed showed up well in this meet. The relay team of the Pretz consisting of Reed, Lafferty, Peterson, and Block won over a quartet of speedsters from Sterling in 1138. The ever powerful Rockford team won over Freeport 97 to 13. Kenneth Heimbuch won a well deserved first in the high hurdles. ln the District meet held at Rockford May 8, Freeport placed fourth as a team, only 1 W points behind second place. Rockford won easily. Schroeder with his first in the high jump and Pinnow in the field events had high honors. The Beloit meet at Freeport was lost 64 to 38, Reed leading with thirteen points for Freeport. The Big .S'e1.1en meet at We.rt Aurora in which the Pretz expect to rate near the top is still to come as the Polaris goes to press. The lettermen are Heimbuch, Peterson, Block, Roe, Keil, O. Lafferty, Schroeder, Kryder, Cloud, Fosler, Pinnow, Amodeo, Reed, and Jones. Heimbuch WinJ.' 1 X . ,gl IT U A I3 1, fbfwy' funky! 2 fwwws qwjfw!

Nope, l guess they're the senior committees for the llarnyard Frolic Crying for helpers, entertainers, and contrib- utors, and from all appearances of the success of the Frolic, we can he sure that they were found. The Frolic was held on Tuesday evening, Fehruary Lg, in the high school gymnasium, transformed into a farmyard. ln this the seniors worked hard and long to construct the harn, the silo, the corn crilw, the pig pen, the manger, and the other concession hooths. The concessions and side shows included a movie, dart game, post-ollice, play, follies, freaks and magician, fortune teller, ltandy lcamp, and last, hut cer- tainly not the fwfr appropriate, the corn game. The novelties were unique and original, and with them the people were gay and happy everywhere, hut gaiety reigned supreme in the pig pen. Yes, you guessed it, it was the dance lloor. lt became so crowded that some- times it was necessary for the people to tell one another not to he lloor hogs. However, all the dancers were cleaned oll' the lloor flwv request not hroomD when at ten o'clock, a rzfifit' lloor show was presented. At ten thirty the King and Queen Bee presided over the rural gaiety. The senior candidates, 'lack Criddle and Dorothy lean Koenig, were elected.

At one end of the clearing there was a silver pool shimmering in the stillness ofa twilight evening. Walking down a wooded pathway covered with pine-needles, we came upon a clearing set with tables and benches. A banquet lit for a king beckoned us! The pungent odor of the evergreens blended with the de- licious aroma of the food and seemed to heighten our enjoyment of the feast which was placed before us. After an enjoyable program we wound our way into the woods, enticed by strains of sweet music floating through the trees, and came upon another woodland glade. Here, the only light was that -furnished by the silvery, crescent moon shining through the rustling leaves. A vari-colored waterfall splashed continuously over the rocks into a narrow brook surrounded by natural formations of rocks and wild llowers and then rippled merrily on its way. All commonplace, everyday troubles fell from our shoulders as we wandered along the moonlit paths. And, who knows, the rustic wishing well with its thatched roof may have helped pass any number of seniors in their finals the next day. The swing music furnished by Royce Truman and his band made the evening spent in the En- chanted Forest complete. M. T NJ 'J ff -mf in riff' tfrfifwfmwyfw' , i Wx .
