That we may in some measure show the honor in which we hold him. we. the students of Hudson High School, dedicate to him this 1929 volume of THE TRUE BLUE. FOREWOR Here we have presented the events of an other year, its pleasures and its sorrows, its labors and its frolics. May the 1929 True Blue recall to us in future years the joyful memories of our days in Hudson High School.

It is indeed a pleasure to review the progress that has been made. believe that a true definition of Education must ne- cessarilD tal(e into consideration the development of the character and pcrsonalitD of the individual. The masteiy of subject matter is of importance onlD when it contributes to the development of character and pcrsonalitD in the in- dividual. With this in mind we have tried to develop a well rounded program of activities and so far as possible to adapt the curriculum so that every boD and girl maD de- velop his talents to the greatest extent. I believe that we are beginning to receive dividends on our investment. The class room worlf has been especiallD fine in morn; instances. The opporlunitD for creative Worl( on the part of the student has been encouraged with the result that more and belter Work has been done than ever before. Our athletic program has been more extensive and we have achieved results that are commendable not on y in victories, but in good sportsmanship developed. The work in foren- sics and music has been extensive and of a high caliber. During a period of four years our music department has been developed to a point where it is second to none. Work well done is alwaDs the result of effort through cooperation. Our teaching staff has been especiallD capable and cooperative. The student bodD has responded splcn- didfa. The encouragement received bD the facultD and students from the Board of Education and the school pat- rons has been appreciated and has deserved our very best efforts.—E. P. Rod(.

May 21 st. The play was produced by arrangements with Samuel French of New ork. The play is a story of a girl of yesterday and a lawyer of uncertain age who are virtually stranded in an old railway station. Because of a hurricane which has disrupted railway service both are rather uncertain about the future. In the nearby farmhouse of the girl, whither they go. the blase lawyer is tortured to submission, after he has dared doubt the age of the girl whose hand he has reverently kissed the n.ght before in the sta- tion. Meanwhile, having expressed a rather sharp opinion of “brazen hussies in breeches,’ he is subjected to the storm siege of a young woman “in breeches,’’ who longs for a seri- ous adventure with an elderly man before she decides what she wants.

Gridley the following responsibilities of leadership: President of class in Freshman year; Secretary of class in Sophomore year; Treasurer of class in Junior year; President of class in Senior year.

Advisor....... ____Fern J rid ley .Ronald Pederson . .Louise I lard int; Herman Windolf ....Mr. Barren When (he Senior Class of ‘29 was initiated into the mysteries of high school life, it was ninety-five in number or approximately one-third of the total of pupils attending Hud- son High School. The many abuses, taunts, and threats heaped upon it by the upper classmen seemed to vary inversely as to its numbers; therefore it was placed at a disadvan- tage. However, it soon lost all fear for its abusers and took its place among the ranks of the “more learned.” The class was immediately recognized as one having an unusual number of competent athletes, as Freshies played on the first teams of both football and basketball. The Sophomore year was an extremely successful one from every stand-point. The class took practically every honor that was offered, and took them by a wide margin. In athletics it was superior; as far as original ideas were concerned, it couldn't be beat, and one must not forget that a member of this class took first place in the High School Popu- larity Contest when he was only a Sophomore! 1 he Junior year surpassed either or both of the two foregoing ones in all respects. Juniors composed most of the football and basketball teams; Juniors prevailed in the musi- cal organizations; Juniors competed for honors in Declamatory, Oratory and Debate; and Juniors exhibited school spirit that is worthy of recognition. Also during that year, the Class of '29 sponsored a circus, the proceeds of which were used to enterta.n the Seniors and other guests at a Prom” which has been unexcelled during the history of the Hud- son High School. The class commenced its Senior year with a number totalling less than one-half of that with which it entered high school. This is due to the fact that many of its members have moved away or withdrawn from school, some graduated last year, and others, we are sorry to say, have dropped behind. The Class of '29 lost one through death, namely Raymond Ziel, who died during his Junior year. [36] JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY .Avorial Linder Robert Melton Kiner Sandeen ...Miss Hoover President................. Vice President........ Secretary and Treasurer. Class Advisor............. With timid hearts the Junior class met the scornful glances of the upper-classmen when they, the Juniors, entered Hudson High School in the year of 1926. By the time they were Sophomores, however, their talented members had shown their abilities in every school activity. Those who were outstanding in football were Einer “‘Gust’’ Sandeen, Robert ’’Bob” Melton, Harry Franklin, Clarence “Rat” Miller, and Russel “Russ Solheim; in basketball there were not so many men out, but those who made the team showed their ability. 1 hose making the “A’ team were Norman “Nor” Kvool and Einer Sandeen. Various other activities in which the Juniors participated were debate, declamatory, and oratory. Helen Mary Harding is our star debater and declamator. The girls won, in their Sophomore year, the inter-class basketball tournament. No longer are they a subdued and scorned class. Now they are upper-classmen. Their class spirit, much credit for which is due their advisor. Miss Hoover, and their president, Averial Linder, has given them the reputation of being one of the leading class- es of Hudson High School. Thus far in their successful career as Juniors, they have won the prize for buying the largest percentage of budget tickets, won second prize for the float for the Homecoming game with Menomonie, and received first prize for their class stunt at the Hallowe’en party. They intend to make these only a small part of the list of their victories for this year. Two boys of their class have been honored by being made members of the National Honorary Athletic Fraternity for Boys. These boys are Einer Sandeen and Norman Kvool.

It made several stops to strengthen its crew and machinery. The first field it stopped at was “Music.” Several of its passengers were involved in orchestra, glee club, and band. The second stop was “Football.” Several of its passengers who made good in this were Clyde Fluddleson, Reuben Stayberg, Ralph Wasson, Elwin Gilihan. Kenneth Cameron, and Chester Young. The next stop was at Basketball. Several of the Sophomore fellows showed good work here. Among them were Jack Mullen. Philip Larsen, and Reuben Stayberg. For one night each year the class slops at “Stunt Field. 1 he first stop it made at this field it took first place with the presentation, The Family Album.” The second stop it took second place with “A Style Review from the Indian to the Modern Flapper.” The Sophomore class hopes to make many records all its way through high school. Already it has set many marks in its first two years and it has high hopes of adding more to its record during the coming semesters.

Yes! 1401 TRUE BLUE 1929 FOOTBALL THE 1928 SEASON Hudson High School was represented in 1928 by one of the best teams tin the con- ference. A large and peppy squad of faithful players was directly responsible for this successful season. Perhaps in no other year did a group of fellows practice more con- sistently and earnestly than this year’s football squad under Coach Schuelke and Captain Kottke. Not only did the veterans show up to every expectation but it was also during these long and extended practices that several new men were developed, who not only played well this season, but who promuse to advance in the coming teams of Hudson. Added to the diligent work of the squad one saw the students and business men actively behind the gridiron men; which support must certainly have spurred the fellows on for many an extra yard. HUDSON LOSES FIRST GAME 1 he Hudson team opened its football season with a loss to Cretin High School of St. Paul I 8 to 6. I his game was but a practice game as it was with a team out ide of the state. The Cretin team was superior to the Hudson team in weight and strength, but the possible “green team showed much spirit and fight. This was the first game for many, but it was valuable experience for them. The Cretin team had the edge the entire game, but stiill the Hudson team played well. They carried the ball well into the Cretin territory Back Row—Mr. Schuelke. Norecn. S. Solheim, Pederson, Melton, R. SolkeLra, Swanson, Means. Third Row—W. Peterson. Gillihan. Wasson, E. Johnson. Huddleson, Cameron, Franklin. Second Row—Capt. Kottke, Sandeen, Young, Beaudry, Stayberg. First Row—Miller, Pribble, Mascot Amundson, Olson, Newton. C. Johnson, 1421 often, clue to the running of Sandeen and Solheim, Hudson Backs. Captain Kottke in the line played good ball, stopping the Cretin Backs. Cameron at tackle also played well. Hudson’s passing game also worked creditably with Sandeen doing the tossing and anyone receiving. It was in this manner that Hudson's score was made by a toss to Stay- berg, Hudson’s new half-back. HUDSON DOWNS CUMBERLAND Hudson opened its conference season with a victory over Cumberland 1 4 to 0. This game was played in very warm weather, but this did not hinder the teams much. Solheim did the bulk of the running, crossing the goal line twice, first with a twenty yard run and later on a pass from Sandeen. This game proved more than ever that the passing attack of Hudson was strong for nearly every pass was completed. Captain Kottke played his stalwart game at center, breaking up plays as well as helping guard passes. The whole team showed its wares in this game as each played fine ball and never allowed the Cumberland team to come into striking distance of the goal. HUDSON TIES ELLSWORTH Ellsworth’s team came to Hudson and tied the Hudson team 6 to 6. Hudson made its score in the opening minute of play, when Solheim intercepted a pass and behind good interference crossed the goal. After this, however, the Hudson team did not fight so hard, and therefore the scrappy Ellsworth team held the upper hand, often coming m the scor- ing territory, but at these times Hudson “buckled down and held. Captain Kottke con- tinued playing his stellar role on the line while other linemen, Cameron and Huddleson played well. In the backfield Stayberg carried the ball for repeated gains. 1 he Hudson team failed to score, due to the fact that they could not stop the Ellsworth backs success- fully, and the team could not make holes for their ball carriers to go through; but the cry arose, “Take it out on Menomonie.” HUDSON WINS HOMECOMING Menomonie came to Hudson for the latter’s homecoming, and thereby were defeated by the score of 1 3 to 6. This svas a very good game—fast and scrappy. Hie game was not won until the last whistle blew. Hudson, however, held the slight advantage nearly the entire game. It was only in the last few minutes that the Menomonie team held the upper hand at which time they scored after having blocked a punt behind the Hudson goal line 1431 TRUE BLUE 1929 and fell on it for thenr only goal. Hudson’s first touchdown came in the second quarter. After the ball had been taken to the oneyard line, Solheim crashed over. Hie second touchdown came in the third period after the ball had been taken to the fifteen yard line. Sandeen threw a good pass to Olson who again took the ball over. This game provided no individual stars but all played as a unit, and played well. HUDSON LOSES TO RIVER FALLS River Falls barely nosed out the Hudson squad by the mere one point margin 7-6. Hudson was the first to score after Lottke blocked a punt and Huddleson made a beauti- ful dive for a touchdown. Sandeen missed goal. River halls tallied on an off-tackle play that caught the Hudson team off guard. Their point after touchdown was successful, giv- ing them their mere margin. 1 he line from end to end was outstanding. Pederson and Kottke played exceptionally well. HUDSON DEFEATS OWEN Hudson won the final game of the season from Owen High School by a score of 7 to 6. Hudson had the best of the game the entire time, often coming wiithin scoring dis- tance of the goal, but the punch to put the ball over was missing. At one time Hudson lost the ball within a foot of the goal and at other times inside the ten yard line. The first score of the game came in the final quarter after Owen had blocked a punt and picked the ball up and raced across the goal. This seeme dto inspire the Hudson team and on the kickoff Pederson raced the ball back some fifty or sixty yards placing the ball on the thirty yard line. From here, alternating Sandeen and Pederson, the ball was carried within inches of the goal, from where Pederson carried the pigskin over. San- deen then dropped back and dropkicked for the extra point. This ended the scoring for the game and also ended Hudson’s most successful season for many a year. THE TEAM Irving Swanson—“Swanee” played his second and last year of football. He proved to be a very hard driving halfback and a good, persistent tackier. However, “Swanee had bad luck, for in the River Falls game he received an injury, a broken collarbone which put him out of the playing for the rest of the season. C jide Huddleson—“Pedro” was a two year man. He held down a wing job and took care of that end of the line in good style. It was bis consistent kicking on both TRUE BLUE 1929 kickoffs and punts, that gained much yardage for the blue and white. His ability to catch passes was another of “Pedro s’ good qualities. He will be back next year, to do great things for the school. Harry Franklin—This is Harry’s first year for the blue and white. He played tackle, and played it like a veteran. Not many gains were made through him, but ;his great strength—in crashing through the opponent’s line—aided the team in breaking up the other line-up. Harry will be back next year. Kenneth Cameron— Kenny” was out last year, although he did not earn his letter then, he came into this season with same valuable experience that made hi ma valuable asset to the Hudson team. He played tackle, a position that he held down very capably, being a hard fighter and a deadly tackier. Cameron has two years left and should prove valuable in the future. Ralph IVasson—This is Ralph’s first year as a letterman for the blue and white. He played guard and handled the job with skill. Not very many gains were made through his side of the line. Ralph will be back next year, and we’re hoping for good reports about him. Eugene Beaudry—“Sheeny played his first year at end, a position that he held down very capably. He is but a Freshman, so he has three years of playing left. He proved himself a very good tackier, and a pass receiver. We should hear a great deal of him in the future. Reuben Staberg—“Rube” played his first year at halfback and proved to be a fast, clever player. Reuben is one of the best open field runners on the team and con- sidering that he is but a Sophomore, we expct to har a grat deal about him on the future teams of Hudson. Clarence Miller—“Rat” was the smallest member of the team, but big in his actions on the football field. His ability in calling the plays at the right time, gave the fellows confidence in him. “Rat” will be back next year. Elwin Cillihan—Elwin played his second year for the Blue and White, this year again holding down the tackle job. While Elwin was in the game no one could make gains through his position. Elwin, however, was severely handicapped this year because of an injury he had received some time ago, but in spite of this he always played well and much will be expected of him next year. KENNETH KOTTKE Captain Kottke is a two year letterman for Hudson. Last year he played guard, but was this year shifted to center where he played very good ball. His offensive game was good, but his great delight was playing on defense where his playing stood out above all opponents. For this reason he may be classed as one of the best centers in the conference. HAROLD OLSON I his was “Ole’s first and last season, but still he proved to be a very valuable asset to the Hudson team. He played a very consistent game at end where he showed himself to be a very fast, clever and an extremely good tackier. He was also very good on the receiving ends of passes, for even though in a group, he was sure to come out with the ball in his possession. RUSSELL SOLHEIM Although this was “Russ’s” first season for the blue and white, he made a name for him- self during this season of football. “Russ’s” speed enabled him to make some long gains for the team. As this is his last season of playing his services will be missed next year. 1461 TRUE BLUE 1929 EINER SANDEEN This was “Gust’s second season for the blue and white. He gained a berth on the team last year through his hard work and de- termination to be a football star. It was through his head work in handling the team, that Hudson was pulled out of many tight pinches. “Gust’s” ability tin kicking, passing, and carrying the ball gave Hudson many gains, and rates him as one of the best ball carriers in this section of the state. “Gust” will be back again next year, as Captain-elect, and great things are to be expected of him and his followers. CLIFFORD NOREEN “Cement was a two-year man. He showed some fine playing for the team last year, but his playing this year was far superior. The team could always depend on “Cement” when a play came his way. He was alwavs there to get the passes and make gains for Hudson. His services will be keenly missed next season, for he graduates this year. CARL JOHNSON “Cully” is a two year letterman. Last year he played guard, but this year he was shifted to tackle where he showed marked improvement. His work was a great help in that he was a goo-1 tackier .and an aggressive olayer. “Cully” will be lost by graduation and this loss will be keenly felt. SHERWIN SOLHEIM Shrimp” played his second year of football, although he did not play last year. His first year he played end. but this year was shifted to full-back, a position which he held down very well. His consistent playing is what help- ed Hudson in winning many of its games ani his efficient method of backing up the line stop- ped the other backs from gaining. 147 J A BASKETBALL Coach Schuelke Back Row:: Mullen.

[49] E BLUE 1929 “A” BASKETBALL (Continued from page 48) made the first half. Kottke, Staberg and Everson divided scoring honors, making six points apiece. Then came the big game. February I, but we lost to River Falls 24-23 in a hard, fast, breath-taking game. Both teams fought hard and as a result Ffudson held a 13-10 lead at the half. The next period the game see-sawed back and forth. River Falls finally winning in the final moment by a shot over three-quarters of the floor. Everson played after being in bed for a few days and played well, thus showing his courage. Kottke was high point man with eight po nts. Hudson turned about and defeated the Spring Valley team on February 8, by a mere point 23-22 in an overtime neriod. The regular playing period ended 19-19 but the Hudson team made one more free throw than the r rivals and thus came out ahead. Everson was high point man, scoring twelve points. Tuesday, February 12. Hud-on scored a lop-sided win ever the Prescott team 31-17. The Hudson team worked smoothlv and held a decisive 25-3 lead at t e half. Prescott guarded more closely the second half and out pointed our team but were unable to overcome the large lead the Hudson boys had acquired. Kottke was high scorer with eleven points. Friday. February 1 5, Hudson again defeated the Pres- cott team 27-17. This game was very rough at times but Hudson showed their superiority at all times and lead at the half by a count of 9-3. Fludson came back the next Friday, February 22, and Coach Rock were defeated by the fast Menomonie team 27-22. In this game the Menomonie team showed that they were somewhat superior to the Hudson squad but the Hudson fighting spirit made up for all. Kottke was again high point man. Hudson retaliated the following Friday, March 1. and easily defeated the Ellsworth team 44-11. Hudson played fast ball, thus the Ellsworth team was unable to come close to tying or winning. Hudson led at the half 34-6. Fhe second half all reserves were used but still the Hudson team was able to hold the Ellsworth squad. Kottke was again high point man, scoring 22 points. Everson was next, scoring 9 points, while all other members gave a good scoring account. The following Friday, March 8, Hudson journeyed to River Falls and were de- feated by the score of 23-19. The Hudson team started scoring late, thus giving River Falls a large lead at the half. The second half Hudson came back hard but were not able to overcome the large lead. Hudson then journeyed to the tournament and were elimnated in the third round. The first game they were defeated by Colfax 28-23. The ability of the Colfax team to sink their free throws enabled them to win. Hudson was behind the first half but often during the second half the Hudson team threatened to score but the final punch was not there to put the team in the lead. Hudson won its second game from Baldwin 20-1 4. This was a very thrilling game with the regular playing time ending in a deadlock 23-23. In the overtime period neither team scored. According to the tournament rules, the team having scored the most field goals wins. Hudson having a 20-14 advantage in this line, won the game. Hudson was finally eliminated Friday, March 15. by the Spring Valley team 21-18. The teams were evenly matched and the game was hard fought but the ability of Bervin to sink baskets enabled the Spring Valley team to win. [501 BASKE TBALL MEN Captain Pederson was a main cog in our defense and offense this year. Ronald vas a clever dribbler and scored most of his points at the end of a dribble under the basket. We are sorry to lose you Captain Pederson. Kottke was our offensive star this year. Kenneth had the good habit of fooling opponents with a quick pivot and a left handed shot. He is our most outstanding athlete of the year and the cleverest basketball player developed in many years. Kottke was selected forward on the all tournament teams. Everson is a valuable man to have on a basketball team. He works hard both on defense and offense. Alfred is an all around good man. never brilliant but always there. He was the feeder this year although he would have scored more if he did not take that responsibility. He was selected alter- nate on the all tournament five. Sandeen is our old standby. Playing guard or forward didn’t bother him as he worked hard at all times in both posi- tions. Einer was cutstanding in his guarding ability. He is a little weak on offense but should overcome this next year. Olson is another four year man we are sorry to lose. Harold played good basketball for Hudson. He is small but his ability in floor work more than made that up. Staberg had a little hard luck this year in breaking his arm. Rudolph came back in the last game of the tournament •to prove that he was the fastest man on the floor and next year should bring out a good hand of basketball. Kvool developed more than any other player on the squad. Norman made a fine showing as a guard in his first year of basketball. You should be a valuable man next year, Norman. Swanson started late on account of a bad shoulder from football. Irving is fast and has ability but lacked the polish, that only long practice can bring out. Mullen is another first year man. Jack showed his value at Spring Valley by play- ing good basketball when Hudson was hard pressed. Jack should make a good showing next year. THE SCHEDULE Dec. 4 there Hudson 20—Altoona 22.

In football, we practiced two months and played four games, winning three and los- ing one. The lightweights practiced the best and, under the captaincy of George Olson twice defeated the Roberts Grade team, here 12-6 and there 12-0. The players in the lightweight squad w'ere: Linemen—-Clapp. Lystad. Rose. Kirk. Hansen. Overbye. Lovette Michaelson, Pederson and Olson. Backfield—Cameron. Kees. Peterson. Saw'ver, and Strom.

[52] ___o TRUE BLUE 1929 THE BUSINESS MANAGER AND CHEER LEADER ROBERT MEANS ‘Dibbo for the last three years has acted as Hudson’s capable cheer leader. With his pep and life, he has helped Hudson win many games by getting the crowds to cheer, and by livening up the team. 1 h,s year besides cheer leader, “Dibbo” annexed the job of business manager. 1 his job is a very responsible one and requires a great dal of work, but nevertheless, he has proved himself fully capable of handling both jobs, and should be complimented upon his fine work. AVERIAL LINDER [53j Robert Means Averial Linder GIRLS ATHLETIC CLUB President...................KouUe Harding Vice-President................Averil Linder Secretary..............................Helen Love Treasurer.................Flora Mae Lyksett Advisor.................................Miss Kidd The G. A. C. under the leadership of Louise Harding and Miss Kidd has had a very prosperous year. Lhe club furnished much of the pep at football and basketball games in the form of snake dances and dress parades. The club has promoted girls ath- letics by awarding medals, emblems and letters. Clean, healthful athletics has been the club’s aim of the year; and by cooperation of all, this has been thoroughly accomplished. The G. A. C. initiation took place on Thursday. October the eleventh. All girls who had earned one hundred points by hiking, skating, or something of this scrt were admitted. The new members first took the oath of allegiance to the G. A. C. and then were given the more serious part of the ceremonies—we thmk they got home sometime that night. . In addition to supporting athletics the G. A. C. put on two successful parties which were peppy and enjoyable. The first was the boy and girl party—not real boys you understand—just girls dressed as boys. The second party took place in the gymnasium on the ninth of February. It was a Valentine party and each girl in the club invited a boy friend. The party began about 7:30 and soon was in full swing with about sixty- five couples in attendance. Because of its fine record last year the G. A. C. was given charge of all decora- tions for the all-school parties this year. It certainly showed its ability along this line, for all of the parties had very artistic decoration schemes. The G. A. C. is the oldest and peppiest girls’ organization in Hudson High School, and whatever it undertakes is sure to meet with success. [54] TRUE BLUE 1929 GIRLS’ BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT Talk about pep, the girls’ tournament surely had it. More fun, more excitement, and more real basketball have never been witnessed. Ihe teams were evenly matched and no one had an easy game. I he Seniors and Freshmen started it out by presenting a hard-fought combat, al- though out-played from the beginning, the Freshmen didn’t give up until the final whistle blew when the score was 40-20 in favor of the Seniors. I he second game was scheduled between the Juniors and Freshmen. 1 he Fresh- men again put up a plucky fight, but were defeated with a score of 37-23. Hie third game, between the Seniors and Sophomores, proved to be a real thr 11. See-sawing back and forth from start to finish, the cutcome was always very uncertain. However, through artistic shooting on the part of the Sophomore forwards, the Sopho- mores won by eight points. The final score was 24-16. I he fourth game was rather easily won, but again the Freshmen should be compli- mented on their spirit and “fight.’ They played the Sophomores and were again de- feated by a score of 42-1 7. The Juniors and Seniors have always been rivals, so the next game was played wit i much enthusiasm on the part of both the players and the audience. Both teams were de- termined to win, and showed their determination by tying the score whenever the other team gained a point. I he Juniors made a “spurt” in the last quarter bringing the final score up to 32-18 in their favor. The last game of the girls tournament was run off on the same day that Hudson was playing its final game at the River Falls tournament and consequently many of the players were either absent or very tired from hurrying back from supporting the varsity squad. The Juniors—absent their star, “Bill” Linder, loit by one basket in the last seconds, 22-20. The game was a fight to the finish with brilliant shooting on both sides.

The staff then organized and elected its two supervisors—both of whom had considerable experience in annual work. The staff spent five months of hard and earnest work in compiling this annual. But the finished book, it feels, is well worth all it has put into it, for it is the only thing that will unite the students of H. H. S. in the future. By its pages they shall ever be able to look back upon those happiest days of their lives—those spent within the walls of their alma mater.

During the year they have published accounts of athletic tourneys, debates, school news, and other items of interest. They have sponsored the development of school spirit through their editorials, while their underlying principle has been to further the development of th school life into the best possible. They have endeavored to cover every activity by an informative description. They wish to add that they owe their existence as a Staff to the cooperation of the Hudson Star Observer, which has so generously given the required space. Although their columns in the Hudson Star Observer have not been very large, they are the most largely- sought section of the weekly paper. Of course they would like to print their notes in a paper by itself, but. since this is impossible, they are trying their best to make an interesting section in the city paper.

DEBATE Resolved: That the Direct Primary as a means of nominating U. (S. Senators, U. S. Representatives and State officials be abol- ished in Wisconsin. By working diligently in their debating class during the fiist semester of this vear and bv putting in a considerable amount of outside time during the second semester, Hudson’s I 929 debate squad was well primed for the opening speech of the season. In the first rounds of the league elimination. Hudson’s negative team lost to River Falls by a 2 to 1 decision. On the next evening. February 8. Hudson’s affirmative Itrio. however, whitewashed Baldwin’s crack sauad by a 3 to 0 vote of the judges. In the second round Hudson was pitted again Hammond in a dual debate and emerged with two 2 to 1 decisions to its credit. , Because of their fine record of three victories and one narrow defeat n the learue contests, Hudson was invited to enter the district play off. On February 28 Hudson sent its Negative squad to Black River Falls where thev were given the short end of a 2 to 1 decision. On the following day. Friday, the assem- bly of Hudson High School witnessed a hot and heavy debating barrage hurled hv Chippewa Falls and Hudson’s Affirmative reoresentatives. Chippewa outspoke, but did not out-argue Hudson, and was given a unanimous decision. Thus ended the most successful debating season since 1910 when Hudson took the district championship. Of the debate personnel, Harrv Burton, Gwendolyn Covell, Irving Swanson and Alfred Stiles will be lost by graduation. TRUE BLUE 1929 HI Y CLUB President...... Vies President Secretary......

This is the first year Hudson has been able to boast of maintaining two Glee Clubs. Former years, only those who were able to make the first Glee Club enjoyed its benefits, but now, anyone nterest- ed in music, may become a member of a Glee Club. The “B” Glee Club meets Thursday of each week for 4 to 5. Their joint program put on with the “A” Glee Club in assembly showed the result of much work.

By his pleasing and energetic personality Director David E. Dahl of St. Paul, who spends three mornings a week with the band members, has so decidedly won the interest and admiration of each student that Hudson is sure to make enthusiastic competition with New Richmond at the music contest this year.

[67] TRUE BLUE 1929 FORENSICS THE DECLAMATORY AND ORATORICAL CONTEST FOR 1928 Hudson Hugh School is making a satisfactory record in public speaking activities. Although there are a large number of students who might make a favorable showing in the contests but who are hesitant about participating, there has been sufficient interest shown to make the contests worth while. In April a declamatory and oratorical contest is held to choose two people to represent Hudson in each event in the league contest. Thirteen people participated in last year’s local contest. I he speakers selected to represent Hudson Kn the league declamatory contest were Gwendolyn Coveil, whose selection was “The Little Hunchback,” and Lcuise Harding, whose selection was “The Boy.” Other contestants were: Helen Mary Harding, Alice Fuleen. Irene Bunker. Clarice Olson, Alice Baker. Alice Crawley, and Harry Hughes. In the league oratorical contest Hudson was represented bv Harry Burton, whose oration was “What the Constitution Should Mean to Every American Citizen” and Marguerite Fitzgerald, whose oration was “Woodrow Wilson’s Gettys- burg Address.” Other contestants were Irving Swanson and L Ilian Tuller. Representatives from five schools spoke in the league con- test which was also held in Hudson. There were eighteen con- testants from Prescott, Ellsworth, River Falls, New Rich- mond, and Hudson. Hudson’s four speakers stood second and fcurth in declamation and fourth and fifth in oratory. Pro- fessor Rarig, chairman of the Department of Speech in the University of Minnesota, was the critic judge for both Hud- son’s local contest and the league contest. 1 his year Hudson has had special classes in forensics. There was a debating class the first semester and an expression class the second semester. These classes have created a great deal more interest and participation in public speaking and indications point to similar classes in the curriculum for next year. Coach Weatherhead THE BE TTER ENGLISH CONTEST OF 1927-1928 It has been customary in the last few years to hold a “Better English Contest” in Hudson High School, the motive being to promote better English among the H gh School students. The rewards in this contest are a silver loving cup to the upper classman and lower classman who shows the greatest improvement throughout the year. Last year the cups awarded to the uDper classman were presented to Mabel Johnson for excellency and to Carl Johnson for improvement. Irene Schultz received the cup for excellency among the lower classmen and Harold Trudell for improvement. This year a new system has been evolved. Every teacher grades a pupil with two marks, one for the subject he takes, and the other for English. It is felt that this method is superor to previous methods in that it necessitates the use of correct English in all classes instead of just in the English room. [681 TRUE BLUE 1929 COMMERCIAL CONTEST I he schools competing in the 1928 Commercial contest were divided into two groups. Class A, those schools having more than one commercial instructor, included New Richmond and River Falls, class B, those schools having only one commercial teacher, included Hudson, Osceola, St. Croix Falls, Amery, Clear Lake, Glenwood, and Milltown. Fludson entered eight students and had two of its representatives placed among the winners. Mable Johnson was given third position in Senior Shorthand, while Gertrude Anderson was awarded third place in Junior Typing. Eugene Kees and Raymond Casa- nova were entered for Bookkeeping, Lillian Tuller and Clarice Olson for Senior Typing, Clara Gunderson and Mable Johnson for Senior Shorthand, and Gertrude Ander- son and Katherine Casanova for Junior Typing. New Richmond won the cup for the grand total of points for class A schools, while Osceola and St. Croix !• alls tied for high point winners in class B schools. 1 here will be no state or district contest this year; however, there will be two semi-official meets. 1 he first will be with Stillwater and the second with New Richmond, River Falls, and Stillwater. Hudson, judging by the fine records and awards of her 1929 commercial students, should place iligh in these meets. Gertrude Anderson The commercial department has been somewhat reorganized this year with the aim of giving each commercial student experience in practical work. Each teacher has been assigned a stenographer who in turn types outlines, letters, etc. for her respectful faculty member. The True Blue editor was also assigned a secretary who devoted many of her class periods and much outside time to her work. The staff owes a vote of thanks to the editor’s secretary—Fern Solheim—and her assistant, Katherine Casanova. CHRISTMAS STORY CONTEST For the fourth successive year Hudson High School held a Christmas Story contest for its students. This year's contest brought out about 1 5 stories, all of which were de- scribed by the judges “as exceptionally fine pieces of literary work.” The contest was in two divisions, the upper classmen contest, and the underclassmen contest. In the upper group. Margaret Klein was awarded first place with her story, Was It Santa Claus?” In the underclassmen group Laurene Cunningham received first prize with her story, “The Muffled Laughter.” Because of the difficulty of selecting a winner the results of the contest were not known until the first weeek in April, at which time gold scrolls were presented to the winners. Mrs. Petitclair, Margaret Hellweg, and Mr. Rock acted as judges for this contest and rendered expert criticism for each story. This contest has always been looked for- ward to with much enthusiasm and promises to enjoy much popularity in the future.

To the so-called faculty) of '29: Section I To Mr. Rock we kindly leave the remainder of our treasury to help pay for the radio. To Mr. Weatherhead we gladly leave Harry Burton to assist him in coaching next year’s de- bate team. 1 o Mr. Bargen we leave our fondest hopes that he may enjoy a Physics class next year. 1 o Miss Hoover we leave a cookbook. 1 o Miss Kidd we leave a policeman’s whistle. Of course, her old one was good enough for us. We were always so orderly in gym classes, but for those disorderly Juniors, we think she had better use something that makes more noise. To Mr. Cook we bequeath a pair of gold rimmed, pinchr.ose spectacles. These ought to distinguish him from the Freshmen! 1 o Mrs. King we leave a year’s subscription to Better Homes and Gardens.” To Miss Phillips we joyfully leave our well worn protractors—bygone relics of cur Junior days. To Miss Maedke we leave Roy Hess’s “hunt and peck” method of typing. Io Miss Wegel we bequeath a new roll room on the first floor where the gentle fumes of the laboratory won't disturb her. I o Miss Lee we bequeath a dozen dictionaries that stay put. 1 o Mr. Schuelke we leave all the courage of the Senior Class.

Upon further inquiry we found out that Vivian owned the famous “Keen Key Klicker” millinery shop and that Lorraine Lauterback and Alice Baker were serving as head models. Cliff being unable to carry on the affairs of this company alone had to take another prominent society man, Roy Hess, into partnership. By the invention of the new fangled dancing slippers, Roy has amassed an accountable fortune which he shares with his dainty and refined wife, Esther Gilbertson, the former belle of Northline, who threatens by her attendance of charity balls, to land him in the poor house. Rolling merrily along the highway in our flivver, we pass the palatial home of Alfred Stiles, the confirmed bachelor of our class. His estate, extending over miles of swamp land, covered with enormous cotton plants, is tended day and night by his faithful and slightly colored servants, Herbert Stayberg and Frank Wright. However, rumors have been spread abroad that Mr. Stiles has not accumulated his wealth through the selling of cotton to the silk manufacturers of Hudson. Malcolm Kneen and Donavan Kvool, but that diamonds have been discovered on his lands which have made him worth millions, although he claims to have only enough money for the upkeep of his home and for supply- ing the demands of his extravagant wash-woman. Dorothy Boody. After leaving the picturesque scenery around the Stiles’ estate we encountered a for- midable person stationed at the door of the “Great Kabedonia.” We soon recognized him as one of our old schoolmates. Harry Burton. Harry had gone into the “Penny” business and was using his gift of gab in selling evening papers. Because of the pleading look in his eyes we were persuaded to buy a paper. At the first glance we read the start- ling head lines: “Carl Hauge, the Modern Valentino Starring With Doris Mae Giese, the Perfect Blonde, in ‘He’s My Husband’ at the Palace Orpheum this coming week.” Carl and Doris have, in the course of twenty years, gained much popularity on the stage, and their plays are looked forward to with much anxiety. On further observation our eyes rested on an article entitled “Found For Fame.” The article consisted of an op- timistic theory written by Ronald Pederson, the famous parody writer of the day. Ronald has in recent years brought into existence the prominent “Shoe College” composed largely of Delinquents, Defectives and Dependents. The great philanthropists of the day, Elda Younke, Ruth Guiswite and Erma Holmes, have highly recommended this institution of repair throughout tthe world because of its higher ideals of life as compared to those of [741 TRUE BLUE 1929 i — Oxford College. Here Anna Vik declares her word law in the art of captivating and shattering male hearts. At the waning of day we at last drew up at our main objective, the Palace Or- pheum.” As we neared the entrance a loud, startling ejaculation resounded in our ears. It was the voice of Herman Windolff. Herman had resumed his job as ticket seller at the theater and was being accused of defrauding a young mistress, Ethel Lyksett, of half a shilling. Ethel had summoned the boisterous usher, David Kelly, and after much re- sistance between the two men, David replaced the shilling m the hand ot the trembling young lady. While we were waiting for the curtain to rise the shrill shrieking voice of 1'lorence IVloe was heard uttering the wel- comed news that Candy, Peanuts and Popcorn were be- ing distributed at sale prices. Suddenly the outcry ceased, the curtain ascended, and all eyes were centered on the stage, where, to our bewilder- ment, we beheld an astonishing spectacle known as the Hag- gadr Howling Quartette composed of Ruth Robinson, Clar- ence Lein, Gwendolyn Coveil, and John L.ahiff. 1 hey rendered two beautiful selections That's My Weakness Now and Show Me the Way to Go Home,' produced by the notorious heartbreaker, commonly known as Herbert Peterson. As the curtain descended a general hubbub arose in one corner of the theater. Upon investigating, we learned that Helen Love had fallen into a dead faint and was being re- vived by a nimble, little veterinarian, Harold Olson. On questioning her companion, Katherine Casanova, a shy, retiring little woman, we were informed that Helen's recogni- tion of Clareince Lein, her school day sweetheart, had caused the awakening of a smould- ering resentment against her present husband, Alfred Jenson, and had causd her to lose consciousness. A solemn hush fell on the audience as the curtain arose on the first act of the emo- tional drama aforementioned. Between acts, we were entertained by two renowned toe- dancers, Louise Harding and her partner, James Penman. Their success has been chiefly due to Roy Hess’ invention of the new dancing slippers. At the close of the day we drew up at the Weather Worn Wayside Inn which was being carefully tended and cared for by a shrinking little violet. Fern Gridley. We disposed of our flivver by leaving it in the hands of the “gas-buggy attendants, Irving Swanson and Frank Steinberg, who tenderly watered and bedded it down for the night. A stately, handsome butler, Donald Quale, met us at the door and relieved us of our wraps. After a short interval, a bountiful dinner was served which had been prepared by the world-famous cook, Lorraine Murphy. Thus in our course down the Road of Life we have passed by and left behind us the remnants of each fellow classmate’s life and have found no blot or blemish to mar the dazzling purity of these lives. Therefore, underclassmen, having been obedient to all teachers, as all exceptional classes should be, we are able to present to you as models for your future lives the class of ’29.

LOVERS’ DEDICATION The Hudson High School students had a big dedication ceremony on the 1 1 th of January. The upper corridor was dedicated to the large group of “ladies- men and their girl friends. All fellows or girls without escorts were warned to stay away from this corridor after school, and Mr. Bargen and other faculty mem- bers had received orders either to bring an escort or stay away. The ceremony was very impressive. Mr. Rock was the toastmaster, and gave an eloquent speech telling why he thought this was such a good idea. His main reason was because he had been so cramped for space when he was in the “little red school-house.” Mr. Cooke and Mr. Weatherhead sur- prised everyone by making burnt cocoa in the kitchen. Mr. Schuelke and Mr. Bargen claimed distinction for buttering the bread—and eating most of it. Miss Maedke. Miss Hoover. Miss Phillips, and Miss Kidd made the music with their vocal selections. “When You and I Were Young Maggie” and “Sweet Adeline.” Mrs. King cut the cake, and Miss Wegel used her biological knowledge in carving the toikey. Before the ceremony ended Mr. Cooke nas«ed out paper hats and balloons. Miss Kidd successfully ended the celebration bv dancing gracefully from one end of the table to the other, and tripping over only two glasses of water, one of which landed in Miss Rewey’s lap—the other splashed in poor Harold Hunter’s face and they carried him out delirious. He thought he was swimming! Mr. Cooke rose, while the participants were leaving, and rendered the vocal se- lection. “Oh! Mother! Whv Did I Ever Leave Home?” in a very high soprano voice.—Heinie Minnie. Every student takes two languages in our school. Why, how’s that? Well, we have a choice of French, Latin, or German, and if we don’t study we get in “Dutch.” TRUE BLUE 1929 A Belli, £ ye Headed Oay After Merely Tr«nKe K E BLUE 1929 WHY I COME TO HIGH SCHOOL Gertrude Anderson—to try to get 19 in a speed test.

N. T. Orchestra, Master Ronald Pederson Esq., was sol- omnly ignited to Mistress Fern Soiheim, one of the first brides of this season. 1 he wedding took place in Hughe’s’s Horse Barn at 5:30 P. M. The bride was elaborately arrayed in a beautiful modernistic wedding dress made of pink flour sacking. In her arms she carried some beautiful Mexican red roses plus a few sunflowers. Her attendants, also arrayed in gowns of red, green, and blue flour sacking, were Katherine Casanova, Anna Vik, Florence Moe and Marie Wetzel. 1 he groom, in keeping with the gowns of flour sacking, was tastefully arrayed in a brown Palm Beach suit of green corduroy (from Haugen’s own choice stock of suits). His walking stick was also decorated in honor of the occasion with streamers of red, white, and blue crepe paper. He was attended by Harry Burton, professor of political science at the University of River Falls. As Leslie Brackey rose pompously to read the sermon, even the Best Man for- got to snap his gum, as the bride and groom were sonorously pronounced es- poused. Due to the fact that the refreshments, which consisted of ice cream cones and cough drops, did not arrive on schedule, they missed the first bus to Stillwater Junction. However, the gallant Mr. Hess, one of the ushers, refrained from staying to lick the ice cream dishes and escorted them there in his vehicle. According to latest reports, the happy couple are enjoying themselves immense- ly, considering, and they hope to visit their many friends in Hudson within a few days. Dorothy Boody (during Recital): Keep still; don’t you appreciate Art? Eve. Nygard: Which one is Art? OBITUARY October 2, 1928 With great sorrow we mourn the loss of the horse tank. For many years it stood on Oscar’s corner, and now it is gone. Very few boys entering High School dodged its sacred portals. Those who did dodge it will all come to a bad ending. Though it was used to water the few horses in the neighborhood, it was held by us in high esteem. The very sadness of its loss overwhelms us, and it is diffi- cult to speak of it. Alas and alak! the City Council ordered its removal, and it was taken away before we could bid it good-bye. It was a harsh thing to do, for what ritual may we substitute to dampen the ardor of wise, witty, and imbecilic breshmen? For twenty years hot and weary Freshmen could dash to the tank during noon hour and cooly repose in its refreshing waters. The only class that ever escaped its cooling influence is the class of 1929. And it is a well known fact that this is the worst behaving class that has ever even attempted to graduate from this institution. This all goes to show that the horse tank has had an ex- traordinary influence over the lives of students of Hudson High. MY DOG The world is filled with things I like. And one of them is my dog, Mike. A regular pal it seems to me. As good a friend as ever could be. He is slyer than a little mouse. When no one else is in the house He will find himself a great big chair. And you will see him sleeping there. His favorite sport is hunting rabbits. Which is, of course, a natural habit. He chases and barks and scares them up. Which is pretty darned good for a little pup. —Albert Yeorg. 1871 __0 !_--------- TRUE BLUE 1929 THE STUDY HALL Every fifty minutes the school bell rings aloud. And into the famous study hall the pupils do crowd, 1 he rule is that we all at once get down to work Some do not obey the law, but sit around and shirk. Some eat candy and cough drops with joy. While others enthusiastically chew “Oh Boy!” Some read funny papers with much de- light. Always keeping them hid from the teach- er’s sight. The notes travel fast under seats and in the air. But if our teacher catches us, we get an awful scare Cause he sends us to the office, which is down below, 1 he place where all unruly children are made to go. After six weeks of school are past And we get our six weeks marks at last. We find that fooling around won’t work And we turn a new leaf at once, with a jerk.
