This tale of woes and joys is the unveiled destinies of the various members of ye glorious class of 1927. W e find room for all in the splen- did new court house so artistically constructed by Maurice Gillihan, the renowned architect of world-wide, fame, and the constructor of the mag- nificent ten cent store situated on the corner of Second and Locust. It was in the latter that Alice Peterson, now the wife of the perpet- ually intoxicated loafer. Fred Sawyer, compelled by stress of circum- stance to rob from the capable manager, Howard Wright, a most expensive trinket valued at the extreme price of fifty cents. Her luxurv- loving soul could not resist the glittering brightness of the jeweled bracelet; hence, we find her, a captive in the clutches of the law. The dignified usher,Firpo Shefland. opened the court door at exactly 9:30. In rushed two yelping children followed by a bedraggled mother carrying two sleeping twin babies in her arms; she in turn, was followed by a ruffian of a boy who was the terror of the entire city. They hast- ened, not to t he court room, but to the furnace room, where Mrs. Swede Sandeen, for it was none other than she—nee Alice Anderson) deposi- ted the sleeping twins on a filthy box where they remained during the entire session; not alone, however, for the fond papa kept faithfuj vigil over his adored babies. As the honorable lady entered the court-room, she glanced about and saw to her extreme surprise, her old friend, Geneva Marseau, dressed in richest silks and with a most sophisticated air. seated beside Art Becker, her co-worker on the stage. The honorable, sedate Clerk of Court, Albert Linder, opened the trial bv reading the severe charge brought against Alice Sawyer by Howard Wright, manager of the ten-eent store. The judge then ap- peared—the honorable, respected Judge Henry O’Donnell, whose ambi- tion lies in the U. S. Supreme Court. The audience became tense and breathless as the sobbing dismayed Alice took her place in the defendant’s seat. She was ushered in by the most worthy deputy sheriffs, Speed Hanson and Art llarbeck. followed by the stalwart, dutiful sheriff. Vic Hohnson. Beside her sat the notorious “crook-lawyer,” Ethel Engebretson, made famous by the great trial of Esther Pederson vs. State, for Esther had attempted to conspire against the state once too often and found that she could not evade the law. The jurors finally agreed upon by Attorney Engebretson and Drol- som (for Walter had become one of the straightest attorneys of all his- tory). were as follows: Hazel Mullen, a parish worker taking a vacation from her duties in the city; Stanley Michaelson, a professor of French: Alvina I lanson, a well-known stunt-skater, who got her start at the Hud- son rink; Clarice Anderson, now the world’s champion typist; Jerome Trudell, a most popular boot-legger, too slick to be caught; Gladys Olson, the most frivolous club woman of Hudson; Lyle Waxon, the unwinable prize of all the charming debutantes of Hudson (Agnes Carlson now had the strongest claim, it appears) : and five others in whom we have no interest. TRUE BLUE 11 As the trial continued, everyone was extremely astonished when Stella Beggs, sworn in as chief witness for the plaintiff, became unable to speak. On being questioned, she opened her mouth a very little, only to allow her jaws to snap back immediately. I ater investigation proved that her jaws were stuck together by a huge wad of “Oh Boy” gum. However with the testimony of Florence Cockburn, the clerk in the ten-cent store, and Ethel Fisher, the wife of the wealthy village hanker in North Hudson, who had been shopping at the time, they succeeded in convincing the jurors that the evidence was strong enough; accordingly, led by Margaret Nelson, in charge of the jurors, they left the court room to make their decision, and after remaining away for less than ten min- utes, they returned with the verdict of. “guilty.” Poor Alice! Under the care of Louise Gwaltney and Ruth Hanson, two charming old spin- sters, she was taken to the penitentiary where she remained for a month the term to which she was sentenced by the lenient judge. Thus we find them all intelligent citizens, the banner class of Hudson High School. M. N. E. F. HOOS IKK) AMONG THE SENIORS Most popular girl .....................................

These occupants were young, frightened, but determined to win their purpose, hopeful and ambitious. They had embarked on a difficult voyage through the 1 ludson high school. The Ford needed pushing, cranking and steering. All the occupants did their share, but some pushed into prominence and others through their attaining prizes kept it moving. Our efficient class officers and advisors did the steering. Towards the Sophomore year the wheels sank into the sands of toil, and many began to realize that the road of school life was not al- ways a jiavement. Some left us unwilling to bare the jolts or lumps of our failures and discouragements. The rest put their shoulders to the wheel, and through their honest endeavor helped the Ford to gain the next stop, Juniorland. It was this journey that required perseverance, endurance and will lay toil and strife and then at last success. As the Ford entered Seniorland with new vigor the tired travellers continued on their wav, until at last the four year journey had ended— the city of Graduation was reached. The reward for earnest endeavors was the diploma. Ahead lay the journey of life for which the journey through school was preparing us. Certainly we can face the world more bravely and confidently after our four years sojourn in Hudson High school. A. P. E. P. TRUE BLUE 13 THE SENIOR CLASS WILL We, the Senior class of 1927, of Hudson High school, county of St. Croix, State of Wisconsin, United State of America, Candy Box, being sane, spiteful, and very much indisposed at the time of this writing, do hereby declare and signify this to be our last will and testament. We bequeath the following: To Mr. Rock: An automatic Book Rent collector. To Mrs. King: All of our Latin and French text books. To Miss Linder: What’s left in the treasury of the Senior class. To Miss Hoover: A megaphone. To. Mr. Weatherhead: A conscience. To Miss Rewey: A copy of Snappy Stories—just a little. The rest from Twelve Centuries. To. Mr. Bargeti: A Chemistry class as bright as ours. To Miss Langworthy: A longer baton. To Mr. Cook: An easier way of giving tests. To Miss Philips: A little more charity. To Miss Wegal: A new class of bluffs. To Miss Sutherland: A new key to the ice-box. To Miss Ellingson: An alarm clock—we don’t want her to be late for the morning tennis games. To Mr. Schulke: A little less temper. To Miss Lee: A hair cut. To the Juniors: Our trials and tribulations. To the Sophomores: The task of becoming good Juniors. To the Freshmen : A little common sense, some of our drags, and real svmpathv. They’ll need it. ]x or darlings. To Individuals: To Ethel Neiman: Henry O’Donnell’s freckles and the greater part of his humility. To Doris Jacobson we willingly leave Juel Shetland's scales. We bequeath Donald Johnson’s baby face to Moco Daniels. Agnes Carlson’s “chawming” laugh to Evelyn Roland. Frederick Sawyer’s curls to Clarice Olson. It will save her getting marcels all the time. To Roy Hess we leave some of Everett Sandeen’s ability at writing love notes. We leave Marie Mulvaney’s seven subjects to any blithe Junior. To Margaret Hansen we bequeath Alice Anderson’s figure. Margaret Nelson’s shyness to Synove Overbye. We hope it will have a calming effect. We charitably leave Ethel Fisher’s x’s to any deserving Junior. To Babe King. Geneva Marseau’s piety. Geneva is growing up. 14 TRUE BLUE Stanley Michaelson’s gift of ‘gab” to Catherine Casanova. To the Hudson High school in general, we leave our ] ep, vin vigor and vitality. Re it known that we, the class of 1927, make this our last will and testament, and appoint the following committee to see that said will be “xeculed—Averial Linder, chairman, Dorothy Boody, Arthur Maiseau and Doloris Jenson. Signed—Semoi class of 19 17 A. A. and G M. SENIOR CLASS PLAY “Green Stockings” Cast Admiral Grice...............................................

Margaret Nelson Celia Faraday, a woman of twenty-nine, finds that she is not mar- ried or has any prospects in view, her family makes her life unbearable for her, so she announces a ficticious engagement to a man named John Smith. After eight months, her family reads the announcement of his death (Celia has sent it to the paper.) However, instead of this ending, the situation becomes more interesting when a gentleman calls telling Celia that Colonel Smith was his best friend and that he has his last dying message to deliver. Celia is trapped but is able to bear up under the situation. This stranger, however, proves to be Colonel Smith him- self (although Celia had no idea that such a man existed.) The story ends happily, however, and Celia’s family has no cause for having to wear green stockings at Phyllis’s wedding. TRUE BLUE 15 TO SENIORS OF TWENTY-SEVEN One by one the years have passed, One by one the moments fall, Some are coming, but we are going, Leaving soon these dear old halls. One by one new duties wait us, into different lines we each will pass; Soon new occupations will serve to part us; We, who now are the Senior Class. One by one new friends we ll meet with, As farther from our school we’ll go; One by one new faces greet us, That in time we'll learn to know. One by one, through all the cares Of high school days we’ve passed together, First as freshmen now as seniors, Many a storm our friendship’s weathered. Every hour that’s passed so slowly, Now at last has reached its end, As through the years we’ve struggled soulv To reach the goal on which we stand. But. often in our hearts regretting The passing of these carefree days, Remembering ever, ne’er forgetting The happiness of high school days. And so our voices, one by one, We raise in loyal cheer to heaven, That in memory, you’ll hold dear This departing class of twentv-seven. G. M. 16 TRUK BLUE HUDSON WINS MUSIC CONTEST Hudson won the large cup at the District Music Contest held at River halls on April 28 and 29. The total number of points was 35. New Richmond was a close second with 34 points. Hudson entered every event except one and participant did his best. Hudson gained its points by winning the following places: orchestra, fifst; hand sec- ond: soprano solo, first; violin solo, second. COM MERC i A L CONTEST Saturday, April 23, the Alma Mater sent six contestants to the District Commercial Contest at New Richmond. Clarice Olson, Lillian Tuller, Clarice Anderson, Synnove Overby, Louise Gwaltney and Ethe. Fisher were entered in three events— Senior Typing, Senior Shorthand and Junior Typing. Ethel Fisher pulled down first place in shorthand and not to let 1 lud- son stop in the good run, Louise Gwaltney held third place. Lillian 1 uller took third place in Junior Typing with a speed of 48. The; e three girls will represent us at the State Contest at Whitewater, May 14. DEBATE Hudson again competed in the annual triangular debate. The affirm- ative team was composed of Jay Cross, Margaret Nelson and Harry Burton. They were defeated by New Richmond at New Richmond and by Hammond, here. The negative team was composed of Jerome Trudell and Clara Gunderson and Frederick Sawyer. This team journeyed to River Falls and met with defeat. Baldwin came to visit this team and were served with a defeat. In spite of the fact that not many victories were won by the teams, it may well he said that the teams have worked hard and faithfully under the direction of Mr. Weatherhead, and pre- sented their arguments in a very convincing manner. SENIOR FREAK DAY One of the events most enjoyed by underclassmen in our high school is Senior break Day, when the dignified Seniors gather together clothes of every description and promenade through the halls and classrooms. '1 his year there were twenty-eight of these on the eventful day, April 8, and some of them deserve honorable mention. Howard Wright wore a bright red outfit with a green tie. Along with this he wore a small black derby which just fit the top of his head. Hazel Mullen, another worthy of mention, wore a green and black striped waist over a yellow skirt. 1 his skirt came to the floor and no doubt gathered a great deal of dust from the high school floors. Everett Sandeen wore an Irishman’s outfit. We all agree that he makes a good Irishman although the color of his hair is very unusual in that race. ()thers wore children’s dresses, over-alls and old-fashioned dresses. We, the Senior class, are glad that we can entertain the rest of the high school. TRUE BLUE 17 DECLAM AND ORATORY New Richmond, our old rivals, came to Hudson April 22, with high hopes of winning but had to fall when the first place was taken by Mar- garet Burkholder reading “The Lost Word,” and second place by Mar- garet Nelson, who read, “The Heart of Ole Hickory,” Jerome Trudell took second place in the oratorical contest with, “The Duties of a Citizen.” HONEST SCRAP CIRCUS The Honest Scrap staff sponsored a circus Friday, April 1, in the high school gymnasium. The G. A. C. sold hot dogs; Juniors sold ice cream cones; and the Sophomore girls sold candy. A circus is not com- plete without freaks and wild animals, hut this collection was the greatest ever gathered under one tent. The freaks were 1 illie the 1 oiler, Ceal Dolan; Maggie and Jiggs, Lillian '1 idler and Glenn Olson; Mutt and Jeff, Sherwin Solheim and Harold Olson; hreckles, Henry O Don- nell ; and Ella Cinders, Doris Mae Giese. Jay Cross, the circus magician performed a number of slight-of-hand tricks. 1 he other features were -- -snake charmers, fortune tellers, a wild man, fish pond and a spider with a human head. JUNIOR PROM The Junior Prom given by the class of '28 in honor of the class of '27 was held in the high school gymnasium on Saturday evening, May 7. 1927. ' The gym was decorated in pink and white. Music for the occasion was furnished by an orchestra composed of Mrs. Lake, Mrs. Jones, Miss Offerdahl, 'Mr. Lake and Mr. Lovett. Just before the close of the evening a moonlight dance was held. Refreshments were served at 10 o'clock in the sewing room. Tables decorated in blue and grey, the Senior class colors, were scattered throughout the room. The room was dimly lighted, candles and two floor lamps being the only means of illumination. Angel food and sponge cake was served with blue and grey ice cream. The faculty members and the Seniors were served first. A group of Freshmen girls in white dresses with blue and grey bands and ties wait d on the tables. The other classes were served later. You missed a good time if you weren't there. 18 TRUE BLUE THE FOOTBALL SEASON The twenty-seven men answered the call for football men on September 8. Suits were issued to the candidates and the season was started. 1 he first two weeks of the season were given to funda- mentals of the game which are very important facors to every football team. 1 he third week was used to round out a team to meet Cretin High school. 1 his game was the usual loose and somewhat ragged game that marks every first game of football. Hudson made costly tumbles on which Cretin won the game, 14-0. I he spirit of this team was not downed by the defeat given by C retin. 1 he next Saturday saw Hudson on the long end of 12-0 score '•’hen they played Spring ValLy. A little improvement was shown in this game. On the next Friday the team played at Roberts. Roberts was de- feated 13-0. Trudell starred in this game. Three touch-downs were lost by Hudson by being weak on receiving end of passes. 1 he next week was a great pep week for Hudson. The spirit of the students and players was a great contrast to the usual pep shown in the other games. I he feature of the week was a great parade and a 20-0 victory over Menomonie. It was a great day for Hudson. The team played great football against Menomonie. The game was full of thrills. The feature of this game was Linder’s race of 80 yards for a touch-dawn. I he next opponent was River Falls. The team accompanied by a large crowd of fellows journeyed to the Normal t(nvn. The team was in the usual slump after being keyed up the week before. River Falls defeated Hudson by the score 7-0. It was a hard blow to everybody a River Falls was considered a weak sister this year. On November sixth the team went to New Richmond. The team knew what they were up against and was primed for a good battle. Hud- son was defeated 31-12. The score does not do justice to the team as they out-played New Richmond in every department of the game except- ing in the overhead attack. This was enough to down Hudson. The Hudson line was a stone wall to every play New Richmond tried. It could not be pierced. The back field was working smoothly on offence but could not stop the passing of their opponents. The team played a very good game and New Richmond knew they played football after the whistle blew that ended the game. 1 here were eighteen letter men of which eleven will be lost through graduation. ith several letter men returning and a few others and the squad with the Junior High coming in, Hudson should have a good season next year. ON r-rl p Cd f H Top row: Mr. Schulke, Audrey Daniels, Howard Wright, Ronald Pedersen, Arthur Harback, James Caldwell, Lloyd Kezar, Vincent Trudell, Raymond Casanova, Fernold Young, Arthur San- deen, Walter Drolsom.

The early season games with Prescott and Spring Valley were turned into defeats by our opponents and counted against us at the tournament rating. After the Christmas holidays the team rallied and took into camp the following teams: Spring Valley. Ellsworth, Roberts and River Ealls. The strain of the last two games seemed to be too great and a turn in the playing started a three weeks slump. During this slump we were defeated by Roberts, River Falls, and New Richmond. Taking this slump into hand and mastering it, the team played great basketball the last two games of the season. The team showed power and ability in defeating Ellsworth and Elk Mound. Nine men were awarded letters; seven will be back next year.
