I believe that more and more our student body and faculty are setting up goals of high ideals and achievement. We are gradually drawing away from the inferior complex and are substituting therefore the success goal. Our scholarship has shown marked improvement. We have had considerable success in music, athletics, dramatics, and have shown improvement in forensics. We are building tradition. If we can cooperate and achieve success in school life, we have done much toward becoming worthwhile citizens in adult life. We must have vision and a will to reach our goals. We may falter, but we will not surrender to defeat. illiam Herbert Carruth has expressed a true and happy philosophy of life in his poem entitled “Dreamer of Dreams.” We are all of us dreamers of dreams, On visions our childhood is fed; And the heart of the child is unhaunted, it seems, By the ghosts of dreams that are dead. From childhood to youth’s but a span, And the years of our life are soon sped; But the youth is no longer a youth, but a man, hen the first of his dreams is dead. Tis a cup of wormwood and gall, When the doom of a great dream is said; And the best of a man is under the pall, When the best of his dream is dead. He may live on by compact and plan. When the fine bloom of living is shed; But God pity the little that's left of a man W hen the last of his dreams is dead. Let him show a brave face if he can, Let him woo fame or fortune instead— N et there's not much to do but to bury a man When the last of his dreams is dead. —EDWARD P. ROCK 11 HIGH SCHOOL FACULTY 1.

The Mlowing morning. Act III—The same. The afternoon of the convention for the nomination of candidates for District and Supreme Court Judges. Three weeks later. Skidding presents a fresh, sincere picture of American family life. Marion Hardy, a modern college girl, falls ecstatically in love with Wayne Trenton. Ill, just as a career in politics is opening up t her. Marion has made j ossil le the nomination of her father. Judge Hardy, for Supreme Court judge by giving a rousing speech at a political rally. I his also wins her an offer for the n miination to the state legislature. Complications arise when W’avne Trenton, who ha s just become her fiance, objects to her entering politics. Estelle and Myra are the two pretty young daughters who ch }se to marry before they finished their education and want to ‘come home to Mother at the first sign of trouble. Mother Hardy is so upset at the modern tendencies of her daughters that she goes on a strike to straighten out her family. Andy Hardy is a likeable ‘young brother with his first “case who keeps the audiences mused with his humorous observances. Grand]® Hardy, a dear old soul with his absent-mindedness and his reminiscences about Grandma, adds a touch of pathos t the story. The white satm slipjjers which are made for Marion to get married in have a great deal to do with straightening out her love affair. Aunt Millv. Mrs Hardy’s unmarried sister, is a reserved, we 1-seasoned school teacher. Her constant temj erament keeps the Hardy h msehold going while the family troubles are at their worst.

We have a class of sixty seven. We were represented in football by Doc Newton : and Jensch and B b Stevenson were on the “A” basketball squad.” First Freshy: ‘Speaking of being represented. Mir- iam Petersen won first place at River Falls as a violinist. We’ve had quite afew members in orchestra, band, and (ilee clubs, too. Second Freshy: “I’ll be so happy next year when we can have the pleasure of initiating the new G. A. C. members. I ll never forget the ritual we had to go through last fall. But I've enjoyed it ever so much since. First Freshy: ‘ 1 just hope we’ll be a success in our high school career and be a credit to the teachers and to good old H. H. S.” Act II Time: May 1930 First Soph : “()ur second year—supreme isn’t it ? The hesitancy of tne Freshy is gone and we are almost ready to become the more dignified Junior. )ur class has distinguished itself in music with Catherine Wndahl, Miriam Petersen. Truman Social and Herbert Lovett as our sol ists. not to mention all the other band, orchestra and glee club members. Second Soph: Well if we have distinguished ourselves in music, we certainly have in athletics with Herman Jensch and George Clapp as such outstanding basketball players. And then we have three football letter men—Doc Xewton, Herman Jensch and Hughie Hawkins. Ernest Beaudry was a letter man. too, you remember, and even though he will not be graduating with us he has left a memory which will be lasting. First Soph: ‘Just two years—two successful years have broadened our activities so much. From “Herr Fritz’s German Band to Hughie Hawkins, the Irishman, on the school police force. 1 11 bet you can’t find one activity that we haven’t taken j art in and we’re not basting either or exaggerating a bit!’’ Second Soph: Oh well, lucre's nothing like giving ourselves full credit for the things we do. Act III Time: May 1931 First Junior: “Pinch me quick so I’m sure I’m not dreaming.” Second Junior: “About winning the basketball tournament. you mean ? Yes, I can just see Rube Staybcrg making baskets right now, can’t you? Jensch was a whirlwind of a captain. George Clapp and Doc Xewton were Juniors, too, on the team and deserve a lot of credit. First Junior: “Everybody is so proud of the trophy; I really think it’s a lot nicer than a cup. All the boys who helped to win it have their names engraved on it—and of course that lucky hairpin must be given its due credit too for getting that trophy. 34 SENIOR CLASS HISTORY—(Continued) Second Junior: “Speaking of trophies—wasn’t the music contest grand this year? I didn’t know whether winning the grand prize was a surprise to me or not. I think I liked the marching contest the best. It was s ) spectacular. There were a lot of Juniors in the band who helped win too.” First Junior: ‘There were a lot of Juniors in the or- chestra and gee clubs. We have three soloists: Catherine Windahl, Miriam Petersen ami Truman S dal. Second Junior: “I think our “Prom” was the third big event in our Junior year, don’t you? I do. Our decorations were quite different with the fountain and colored ribb ns. Mr. Dahl's “Dixie Collegians” played for us. And they sat in the middle of the floor under the decorated can-opy.” First Junior: ’Refreshments, you remember, were served on the balcony and the tables were fixed so we could see the dancers and there were apple blossoms on the tables. Japanese lanterns were hung all around.” Second Junior: “Well, here’s to as successful a Senior year as we have had in our Junior year!” Act IV Time: May 1932 First Senior: “A penny for your thoughts?’ Second Senior: “1 was just reminiscing! It’s been a grand four years, hasn’t it ? Especially the last year has lieen. I think we can leave old II. H. S. with the thought that we have been an outstanding class, have done outstanding things and have outstanding | eop!e. Am I assuming too much?” First Senior: ‘No, I think not. Almost everyone has done his bit t elevate our class. The basketball fellows certainly have done their jxirt. They came home with the l acon” from the district tournament. And now they go to Madison! Jensch, George Clapp and Doc Newton will p!ay their last games for the glory of Hudson in the State Tournament.” Second Senior: “The musicians and vocalists have brought honor to our class also. So have our literary-inclined students. hliza) eth Johnson has assumed a great responsibility as our editor and chief of the True Blue and has filled its requirements very adequately. What would you say was the most influencing factor in our Senior year?” First Senior: As a person’s influence. Miss Lee. She lias made her good influence felt by every Senior. And has certainly been a guide to every one. It seems that if anyone has a grievance—up to the library and Miss Lee. We owe Miss I e a vote of thanks for her unfailing work with us as Seniors.” Second Senior: ‘ Now that we have reached the end of our high school career let’s hoj e that we may further our education or may find some useful place in this great world.” 35 THE JUNIOR CLASS President Dorothy Johnson Vice President ... R bert Sandeen Secretary Helen Overby Treasurer Gudrun Grimm Class Advisor ..........Miss Schoonover The Junior Class of 1931-32 is a prominent class especially in the realm of athletics. It is a class of which the rest of the high school has every reason t • feel proud of. We have always been a small class, but immediately upon entering high school we were able to cap the prize for the best homecoming float. Also in our Freshman year, Gudrun Grimm carried off first prize in the underclassmen’s Christmas story contest. In our Sophomore year we won the b iy’s interclass basket ball tournament. Five of our boys were on the regular B. B. team which won first place at the district tourn- ament at River Falls. Those who represented ur class were Vernon l.ystad, Alt’ Kngebretson, Robert Sandeen, Robert Stevenson and Robert Clapp. Everyone of these bovs with the addition of Wayne Johns n has been working hard this year to help Hudson gain the honor of winning the state championship. In football we were very we 1 represented and expect to come back still stronger next year under the leadership .if Vernon Lystad. Captain-elect. In Music our class has always had a very good representation. Under the cooperation of Miss Schoonover, our advisor. and Dorothy J hnson, our president, preparations are being made for the biggest and best prom ever held in the Hudson High school. We hope next year to graduate with the reputation of having been one of the best classes ever t . pass through this school. 36 1 come an active group in the school with a good representative in every extra-curricular activity. They have made g � od records not only in outside activities. but in the classroom as well. With their present standard they should j� ass their remaining two years at Hudson High school with colors flying. President __________________ Edna O’Brien Vice President .............

W hen one notes the varied activities in which the Fresh 39 What a Night Remember 1 he Juni r High Girls Kickba!l team ranked second in the inter-class tournament while the boys’ Football and Basketball teams made excellent showings.

After such an outstanding record, it is the desire of the Seniors that th. se entering high school next fall will fulfill their high standards of character, scholarship and sports-menship. 41 Tell Me Another My Dear CHAPTER TWO Athletics FOOTBALL victory. (Others are there to get the plays of the game to l� e inserted into the papers, and many arc present for the thrill which the game affords! Underneath all the other reasons and more powerful by far is the reason why football is kept on the athletic program. This alone keeps the game permanent. In order that fellows may associate with one another they must come in direct contact. 1 can see no letter way of bringing this about than bv competition; and what is l etter, healthier and more vigorous competition than football. May the game remain on the program. J. E. RUDE J. RUDE 43 FOOTBALL DOC. Doc, a lineman, was probably the best possible choice the boys could have made for captain. He put his whole heart into the game and kept up the morale of the team. Newton was a hard fighter and few rival men broke through his defense. It’s too bad he is leaving as his encouragement carried the fellows through many slumps. HAWKINS Hawkins, who has played guard for the past three years, is another man wh se absence will he greatly felt next year. Hawks, the l� y with the “old Texaco pep ”, was in every play and few backs found a hole on his side of the line. His line of chater, especially ‘‘Come on fellas—we gotta hold 'em,” proved to he an important factor in winning a large number of the games. 44 FOOTBALL SHORTS Shorts, a small hut game fighter, was an important man of the backfield. He was one of the best utility men and never failed to pmy to the best of his ability. He starred in the River Falls game as he scored the only touchdown made against the Falls. His pass defense is the most outstanding quality to be missed. BURKHOLDER Burkholder was one of our cleverest open field runners and crashing halfback. His gains were made at opportune moments, when the team needed a few yards for a first down or touchdown. He was a favorite with the crowd because he always demonstrated the highest type of sportsmanship. e certainly shall miss the efforts of a tireless worker who for two years lias given his best to Hudson High. 45 FOOTBALL JENSCH Jensch, whose position was changed from end to ful hack, was the best all-around player on the squad. He was an outstanding man and starred in several of the games. He, too, kept up the spirit � f the team and was always ready with his “pat on the back” for any fellow who was taken out. Everyone will miss him. especially his gojd sportsman ASKOV Askov. a one year letterman. was another excellent guard. He displayed new qualities which, in the course of time, would have proved invaluable. Askov could be deluded upon to hit the line hard and came through many a game with colors flying high. Askov was a good lineman and surely will be missed next season. FOOTBALL MAC Mack, a guard, was always quiet and reticent. This year we were oyer supplied with tackles, making a regular tackle an exceptional player. W illiamson took advantage of the excellent opportunities offered him and excelled on the gridiron. With his g ing goes a remarkable player and an all-around good, fellow. BARNEY Barney, one of the best men on the team for backing up the line, has played football for two years. He was a valuable asset to the back field as iie hi eked many a hole. He did a bit of spectacular pass receiving in the game with Menomonie and several times threatened to score. He is graduating and his services will be missed next year. 47 FOOTBALL CLAPP Clapp, “tlu uncomplaining center ’, has played hard, fair and square throughout his three years of football. Clapp never said much hut. oh, how he played! The opj osing team always seemed to “lay for the center, hut Clapp withstood the mauling and got through the season without any serious injuries. He knew what, how and when to play and never failed to play a hard clean game. EMER Emer, a right guard, was especially good on defense. He was a hard tackle anil usually succeeded in getting his man”. He was a two year letterman and his tactics displayed his real knowledge of the game. He was a hard plunger and managed to successfully play his position. Hudson hates to lose such a fine defensive player. “Buckets , who has played quarter-back for the |� st two years, was. without a doubt, the l est line plunger on the team. He used common sense and above all. was a good sport. Sawyer was one of the principal ground gainers in all of the games. hen he graduates, he is leaving a large gap in the hack field. 1931 FOOTBALL SEASON When Hudson first started the football season this year someone made the statement that they would try to make a fifty ] er cent standing in their games. Because of the victor) in the River Falls charity game, however, they passed this mark and won sixty per cent of the games. First they met Roberts on the home field and in an even game tied them 12 to 12. In this game Hudson’s defensive strength showed up in fine shape. The boys seemed to be able to dope out” their opponents’ plays and break them up. It was in this game that “Choppy Sawyer started playing the type of game that soon won him the name of “Buckets ’, l ate in the last quarter Burkholder intercepted a pass, and advanced the l all to the twenty five yard line. It looked like another score but in a number of hard attempt the boys were stopped. Clapp and Hawkins broke through several times in this game and ‘messed up Roberts plays. Next the team journeyed to Ellsworth. Here with “Buckets” running and Stevenson’s playing, Hudson ran up a large score. In many brilliant plays the boys took the ball across the field for a final score of 32 to 0. One sj ectacular play was a long forward pass, Stevenson to Alf which gave them six points. The team showed much improvement over the week before . Amery was the next opponent. Here the strong Amery eleven found a stone wall in Hudson’s line which they could not penetrate. In the first quarter Hudson did not show a very good offensive but in the second they advanced the ball deep in to Amery territory and at the end of the first half the ball was on Amerrs six yard line. In the second half, also, the b jys took the ball deep into Amery territory but were not able to score. In the next game, which was with River Falls, we lost one of the most valuable players on the team, Steve, the fullback, whose collar bone was broken and on whom the school dejiended greatly. It was in this game that Hudson received her first defeat of the season. The game was hard and fast and there were not so many sj ectacular plays as in the former games. Hudson’s line held very well but the back-field was weakened considerably because Burkholder was ut with injuries and early in the third quarter Steve’s collar bone was broken. Captain Newton led the team into the game with a determination to make a good showing. This they did. “Doc seemed to be everywhere, breaking up their plays and owning holes for his own Iwckfield. Stevenson took the ball into River Falls territory where “Shorty Olson took it across for the only six points. Although many fans had slated New Richmond to be the victor in the next game, Hudson came over the top with a victory of 24 to 0. Persell made a nice return of the kickoff and helj)ed to take it deep into enemy territory, but the boys failed to put it across. The whistle starting the second quarter started the fireworks. Burkholder and Jensch took the ball for long gains, and then to top these brilliant plays, Engebretson took a long pass and went for the first touchdown. At the start of the third quarter Engebretson made another touchdown to make the score 12 to 0. Jensch crossed the goal line but was called back. On the same play he took it over again thereby leaving the score 18 to 0. Again Engebretson starred by intercepting a pass and going down the field to make the score 24 to 0. The game with Menomonie was one of the best a Hudson team has ever played. Although Hudson was beaten 14 to Id they outplayed them throughout the game. Menomonie had two men who worked very well on passes, and 49 1931 FOOTBALL SEASON-—(Continued ) without them the tables might have been turned. Menom-onie made the first score hut Engebretson took a pass and ran seventy yards to make up for it. However, the extra point was not made. Then Jensch intercepted another pass and raced another seventy yards f r a touchdown. Again Menomonie’s | assing system worked and they carried the l all across for the final score. Hudson’s i ost schedule game was played with River Falls whom they defeated 6 to 0. This was the last game for most of the members of the team, and they were out to show their stuff. The line completely out-charged their opponents and all the backfield played a starring rame. Jensch, who made the touchdown, and Burkholder were the outstanding players. Hudson has had a very successful seasm and much credit is due to Mr. Rude who develojjcd one of the finest teams Hudson has put upon the field. HOMECOMING This year our homecoming game was played with New Richmond. And did we win? We couldn’t have lost with a team like urs. Of course the cel bration the night before the big day. did make the boys fee’ that the student body and faculty were cheering for them. The bonfire rally went off with a bang and plenty of pep. The pep program was opened by a selection by the band. Then our coach. John Rude, spoke. More music was heard and sjon the crowd was singing and shouting. The fire was lit. and. as the flames l:a])cd skyward, we formed a weird circle around it. Our n?w ch;er leaders I d several yells and later led a snake da c? around the fire. It all ended by the band playing. P?rnaps we shouldn’t say ended. For it really didn’t end until our boys came through with a glorious victory, defeating the Irish 24 to 0. 50 BASKETBALL SEASON 1931-1932 I he 1931-32 basketball season was a very successful on: for Hudson. Out of twelve games played, the team suffered only two defeats and the first one was taken from Ballwin after the hovs had only two practices. In the first game of the season they met Baldwin, wh had b en practicing for many weeks while our ! oys had only two nights of practice. The game was not very interesting for Hudson spectators as it seemed that the home team could n t get going.” The final score was Baldwin 29. Hudson 17. This was. however, not a conference game. The second game of the season was the signal for our hovs to get started. It was the first conference game of the year and was played with Ellsworth. Through ut the game the team showed that they were far uperior, demonstrating much improvement over the first game. Jensch got a good start for the season by proving t be high point man. Prescott came next on the schedule and although it was expected to l e a hard game, the boys showed the results of their week’s practice very nicely, bv defeating them 24 to 16. The game was slightly one-sided in favor of Hudson. The hoys played superior kasketball in this game, but it was not very exciting for the few who accompanied the team. Next, Hudson met their traditional rivals. New Richmond. From the first of the game ur boys outclassed the Irish. Bob Clapp and Bob Sandeen were the high point men in this game, and the guarding of George Clapp and Vernon Lystad was outstanding. The team started the minute the whistle blew by making successive offensive drives BASKETBALL SEASON—(Continued) which resulted in eight p ints at the end of tin. fir t half During the second half. Sandeen put in some very nice short shots. In the last quarter. New Richmond started getting down under their Ixaskit and making some short shots: this, however, was broken up by our guards. A fourth straight conference vict rv came for the boys when they downed Ellsworth 38 to 15. A feature of this game was the accurate passing and teamwork of the team Coach Rude developed some fine passing plays which the team executed very well. Jensch and Sandeen. with the help of their teammates, put in most of the baskets. Ellsworth found it a very hard task to get through the guarding of Clapp and Lystad, and at no time during the game did they threaten our lead. When the boys met River Falls, they showed for the first time that they could last an entire game without tiring. The game was hard and fast during the first half and b � th teams seemed to be about evenly matched. The half ended 11 to 10 in River Falls favor. However, the team came l ack with an offensive which the fans had never before seen a Hudson team display. Bob Clapp distinguished himself in this game bv putting in most of the baskets. This was another conference victory for the boys and it 1 oked as if they were going after the championship in a big way. The team next went to Boyceville. and to the fans who came to see a close game, dure was a big disappointment. The boys ran wild during this game and by the end of the first half, the score stood 27 to 9. B b Clapp and Jensch started another of their scoring drives and “put up twelve points each, and during the last half, the score increased steadily. The Hudson subs gave a good account of themselves in the latter | art of the game. River Falls, in their second game with Hudson showed improvement over the first, but our boys managed to come back and defeat them 24 to 19. The game was close, l eing the first in a long time when our opponent had threatened our lead. In this game the Clapp brothers worked very nicely together. The scoring honors were quite evenly divided. Hudson’s guarding in the last half was very successful, proving so close that River Falls res irted to long shots, most of which were unsuccessful. One of the most exciting games Hudson has ever played took place at Menomonie. Although the team received their first conference defeat. 24 to 26, the game was by no means slow . From the start to the finish, it was doubtful to everyone which team would have the higher score at the end. It seemed that everytime Menomonie made a liasket, the Hudson fellows would carry the ball down to make one. This was the first game Captain Stevenson played, and he certainly started his season out with a bang. Bob Clapp was high point man with Stevenson coming second. Near the end of the game, Sandeen was awarded a free throw and put the hall through t • tie the score 24 to 24. To decide the winner, an overtime jieriod was held during which Menomonie made another basket. The defeat by Menomonie did not seem to have a discouraging effect on the boys because they came back the next week and ranted Presc tt 54 to 24. The game was fast, but as any one-sided game, it was not very exciting. Steve was high p lint man with Wayne Johnson only one basket behind him. The next victory for Hudson was taken from the “fighting Irish”, who certainly did show a lot of fight. At the start of the game and all through the first half. New Richmond piled up a lead so high that it made Huds n s chances look very slim. However, in the third quarter, the boys seemed to hold them a little better, and in the last quarter they played New Richmond off their feet. It was without a doubt the most spectacular game Hudson has ever played. In the last quarter Alt', Steve and Doc 52 r BASKETBALL SEASON—(Continued) each put in a basket, making the score 18 to 18. When there were only twenty five sec -mis left to play, Alf Lipped in a very pretty shot to win the game. In the last conference game of the schedule Hudson avenged the defeat suffered earlier in the season from Men-omonie. by defeating them 27 to 25. This was another of those close games that Hudson seems to sj ecialize in. and it looked for a while as if it would result in another over time game. Captain Stevenson was high point man again and it was he who put in the winning basket. By defeating Menonionie, Hudson tied Spring Valley for first place in the c nference. In the manner just described, one of the most successful Hudson basketball seasons had just ended. There are a number of Seniors on the squad who will be greatly missed, Herman Jensch at center. George Clapp and George Newton at guard positi ns. These three men have contributed much to Hudson’s successful season this year. Mr. Rude deserves much credit for the way in which he has worked with the team and develo) ed them into one of the finest teams in the Northwest. 53 -----------------|- THE TOURNAMENT The Hudson High School haskethall team have again shown that they are the real squad for which they have gained their reputation. Last year was the first time Hudson had taken a tournament for many years, but this year, wlfh even stiller opj osition, they came through with the championship. On March 9 Hudson met her first victim, Boycevillc. Alth -ugh we had defeated them earlier in the season, there were rejx� rts that they had improved. After the game got under way, the boys showed that they had the strength and ability to meet any opposition. The game was fast but the team demonstrated the results of their long practice and their good training by defeating them 39 to lb. Then on Thursday night we met K.k Mound, and although they had defeated River Falls, Hudson showed them what a real basketball team was and how a real team played. In this game the boys proved that they were not a team that could last a half or three-quarters, but one that was in i er-tect shape when the final whistle blew. By defeating Klk M und 38 to 19 Hudson qualified for the finals and when New Richmond downed W'oodville. they also gained the right to play for the championship. ()n that Friday night when we met New Richmond for the championship title, the crowd was so large that many had to Ik turned away. Hudson was primed for this game and from the first whistle, there was no doubt as to which was the superior team. The Hudson Ixns kept their heads all the time, even when Xcw Richmond threatened their lead in the first quarter. The game seemed to Ik. a little better than the ny.ial Hudson vs Xew Richmond game because there was a more friendly feeling between the two teams. The final score was Hudson, 19. Xew Richmond, 10. As a fitting climax to the successful tournament. Herman Jensch and Robert Sandeen were placed on the first all-tournament team. Then with more honors for Hudson came Robert Stevenson with a forward position on the second team and George Xewton with a position on the third team. Captain Stevenson led his team into this tournament with the determination to win first place and to show what good sjx rts he and his team mates were, and there is no doubt but that they accomplished both their objectives. Coach Rude must l e congratulated on turning out this win- 54 ning team and we wish both him and his luck in the state tournament. Hudson sent their battling nine to the state tournament, to be entered for the first time in a state meet for years. It was a thrill for the team just as it was a thrill for the folks at home. The first team the boys met on the Madison floor was New Glarus. With the two teams on the floor, it looked like a pretty even match. This game was a most interesting one, as Hudson was in the lead by a few points throughout the game until the last few minutes. Then New Glams made a few nifty shots which put them ahead of Hudson a THE TOURNAMENT—(Continued) teammates good few joints. They held this lead till the end of the game, winning by a score of 15 to 11. The second game which was played between Hudson and Xakoosa, was a disapi ointment for the Hudson stars. The Hudson boys seemed a little out-classed by this team and the score ended with Xakoosa 21, Hudson 6. This victory for Xakoosa ended Hudson’s chance for a place in the state finals. Hudson, however, is anticii� ating a victorious basketball season next year, when Hudson will come home from the state, a winning team. ALL NATIONS BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT A new and interesting feature was added to our athletic program this year, when an all nations tournament was inaugurated. This proved to be a very unique idea and a-r � used the interest of the entire school. In the first round the Germans. Norwegians, Irish and Italian teams were victorious over the Knglish, Swedes, Scotch and French teams respectively. In the semi-finals, the Germans downed the fighting Irish and the Norwegians defeated the Italians. In the consolation series, the English received the consolation prize by defeating the Swedes. In the final game the two crack teams of the tournament played in a very fast game, but the Norwegians, proving to be the superior team, captured the title. The Norwegians showed fine teamwork and all their men played great basketball; they truly deserved the great championship prize which was given to them. The Germans, under the guidance of Coach Jensch, showed pluck and sportsmanship, taking sec nd place. The teams were as follows: The Swedes were George Lombard, Lloyd Nord, Chester Birkmose, Leroy Anderson, Russell Lvksett. Orson Gustafson, Tom Simonson, Win- ford Holt, Elmore Anderson. Roy Johnson. Merlin Johnson. The Scotch were Ted Swanson, Malcolm Williamson. Alfred Swanson, Billy Williamson, Francis Coulter, Harold Hunter, Robert Ouarnes. George Mullen. The Germans were John Sawyer, Virgil Becker, Herbert Robinson, Jack Zahler. Charles King. Arthur Behni, Herbert Bonnes. Wyman Cramer, Raymond Grass, G rdon Dedrick, Joseph Buttke. Charles Lyksett, Billy Zahler. The French were Kdward Hartnett, Bernard Mont-briand. I eslie Molloy, Donald Covell, Bernard Persell. Fred Jones. Donald Severson, Wayne Boals, Eugene Beaudry. The Norwegians were Palmer Kvenson. Peter Strom, Lv-nos Simps n, Kd Michaclson, Alfred Flattum. Harry Johnson. Carl Hjelseth. George Olson, Truman Sodal. Rueben Stavberg.

Hugh O’Donnell. The Knglish were Herl ert Lovett, David Burkholder. Curtis Burkholder. George Johnston. Walter Baillon. Donald Boody, James Wakefield . The Italians were Frank Sirianni. Anthony Richie, Frank Richie, Henry Schullo, Hcnrv Lombard. 55 THE B TEAM The Hudson“B” team went through this season in good form under the guiding hands of Miss Kidd and “Rube” Staberg. They won ten games, losing four; two to Menom-onie’s “B” team, one to Hammond’s “A” team and another one to the Minneapolis Roamers. The team had a fine hunch of players; Tommy Kees was outstanding in all the games, making sixty six points in fourteen games, the highest individual scoring. “Shorty” Olson wasn’t loafing either for he made thirty five jx ints in seven games, playing only one semester. Wayne Johnson delivered the goods too, making thirty five points in eleven games; the “B” team lost him to the “A” team for the latter |� rt of the season. “Ed” Michael-son, who played well at guard and who came through with his share in the thirteen games he played, was also lost to the “A” team. “Barney” Persell, the center, took most of the tip-offs all the time he played and put in his share of baskets making thirty points. Hugh Hawkins was not discovered until two games were played hut he got into the other twelve doing a great deal of fine guarding. “Cork” Dedrick, who played at guard the first semester, made a good show and although playing guard sunk a number of baskets. “Bud” Lovett and “Polly” Evenson played well at guard; Bud stopped plays no matter what happened afterward. Buddy Peterson and Harry Johnson, playing at forwards in a number of games, held the job down well. “Ras” Schullo played in six of the games, making fourteen points. “Pete” Strom came in the latter j art of the season hut played great basketball, alternately playing guard and forward. SCORES OF “B” TEAM Hudson 16. Baldwin 3; Hudson 14, Ellsworth 4; Hudson 22, Prescott 12; Hudson 17, Minneapolis 26; Hudson 19, New Richmond 4: Hudson 16, Knapp 13; Hudson 25, Hammond 9; Hudson 26, Minneapolis 23; Hudson 26, Knapp 15; Hudson 8, Menom-onie 23; Hudson 3, Hammond 10; Hudson 13, Prescott 6; Hudson 23, New Richmond 13; Hudson 13, Menomonie 16. 56 JUNIOR HIGH BASKETBALL TEAM The Junior High Basketball Team went through the season without a single defeat. Many of these youngsters will go to the “B and from there to the “A squad. Mr. Walbrandt exhibited remarkable cajxability in coaching these boys, and they owe much of their success to the diligence of his efforts. Their first game was played on the home floor with the River Falls Training School, resulting in the score of 16 to 3. Their next game played at Roberts, was won by the decisive score of 35 to 4. They played the River Falls Junior High twice, Rol erts, and the Ellsworth “B team. The scores of these games were 26 to 5. 12 to 6, 14 to 9. and 24 to 5 resjjectively. The boys on the team were: B. Zahler ............................. Forward A. Ritchie Forward Peters n Center I). Burkholder Guard C. Hjelseth Guard G. W allis....................... Forward H. Overbye ______________________ Forward Something should probably be added al out the fellows. Zahler was high |x int man. making the majority of baskets. Burkholder and Hjelseth worked nicely at guard position and successfully managed to reduce the opjxment’s chances to score. Ritchie and Peterson also played g xxi games taking advantage of all opportunities offered. The “subs’ who showed much improvement were W allis, Anderson, C. Lyksett and H. Overbye. May the success of the team continue! 57 good time is had by all. It is a most interesting twenty minutes with everyone on needles and pins and ready to raise the roof of old H. H. S. Herb Bonnes is the captain of the group of cheer leaders, and he has s| ent much time in making these meetings a success. He has composed songs and developed new yells. Since the Annual Pep Bonfire held again this year proved to be a success, we hoj e they will continue. Hello, everybody, you are about to read a little article on cheer leaders. We are the jolly bunch who lead the school in cheers. We have been working together for new ideas and to some extent we have been successful. We plan programs for pep meetings and have had some sort of entertainment every time. These programs consist of a few sjieeches made by members of the team, the coach, faculty and many men from the business section. Our school songs are then sung, school yells are given and a rollicking GIRLS' BASKETBALL More interest than ever before has l een displayed in the Girls’ Basketball Tournament. All of the classes were well represented and even the Junior High competed. The teams were as follows: Junior High: E. Able, A. Bann. V. M. Olson, I . Jensen. L. Hanson and L. Olson. Freshman; P. Melton, . Rues ink, B. Thompson, A. Michel son, V. Wilcox, R. Peterson. Sophomores; M. Yost, K. Sweet, E. O Brien, E. Melton, M. Hawkins, L. Gregorson. Juniors; H. Overby, D. Erickson, D. Johnson, R.

'1 he Sophomores showed superior ability and proved their skill at Imsketball by defeating all teams with the exception of the Senior Blues. The girls were excellent sportsmen and won each of their games fairly and squarely. The final game played between the Sophomores .and the Blue Seniors, was an exciting game from start to finish. However, throughout the game the Sophomores seemed to have a slight margin over their opponents. The Sophomores beat the Senior Blue team by a score of 15-7. It is hoped that in the future the girls will be as keenly interested, and exhibit as good sportsmanship as all of the girls did this year. 59 An opportunity for athletics!

Every Thursday and Friday mornings from 8:00 to 9:00 the Inns, under the leadership of Miss Hanson, get together and practice for assembly programs, public entertainments and the music contest. Out of this group of boys there has been much talent discovered in the line of soloists as several of the boys are trying out for the solo events at the contest. Much credit must be given to their very capable director and instructor. Miss Hanson, who has developed them into a very well drilled organization that took first place at last year s contest and has every hoj e of doing the sarpe this y.ar. Every l oy who has a desire for any vocal training tries out in the tall and there is chosen a group who wi 1 practice tegeth r all year. For the contest a group of twenty who represent the best musical talent in the school is selected. 1 his group has certainly been a credit to the school and a there are a ways new singers replacing those who graduate, the prospects for the Club are as good as ever and may they have much success in the years to come.

She has selected music well adapted to the occasion which the members presented their selections and well adapted to the voices in the club. The Girls’ Glee Club is organized primarily to cultivate musical talent, to train the student to read music and recognize good and bad harmony. Among the twenty-seven girls in the club, there arc several who are gifted with exceptional musical talent. The club has been entered in the district music contest First Row, Left to Right—Elizabeth Johnson, Verna Anderson, Betty Thompson, Marorie Mennes, Alicia Smith, Phyllis Olson, Dorothy Trudell.

Although the girls have not taken a first plac: in the | ast four years, competition has been so keen that they have had some excuse. However, they have l een fortunate enough to get the second p'aces. They presented a program in assembly which proved to be very worth while, an excellent illustration of their quality of tone. The girls have great hopes of winning a place at the annual music contest to be l� e!d at River halls. President. Merledean Pfiefer; Vice President, Olga Lyksett; Sec y and Treas., Elizabeth Johnson. THE GIRLS’ B” GLEE CLUB The “B” Glee Club is under the supervision of Miss Carol Murray this year. It has been a source of help and pleasure to a large number of girls. There are about sixty members in the Glee Club and they are divided into two groups. The Senior. Junior and Sophomore girls practice every Thursday after school and the Freshmen and Junior High meet on Tuesday. Secretary ............... Marion Hawkins Treasurer ...........

MIXED CHORUS I Ik Mixed Chorus in the last two years has gained for itself thi distinction of being one of the school's outstanding musical organizations, one that has developed wonderfully in the last few years. Directed by Miss Hanson, the students in this group have become r ally interested i:i learning the fundamentals of vocal training and for two Ik tirs a week on, l uesday and W ednesday mornings they hold a verv profitable and instructive practice. In these periods such things are stressed as a capero singing, pronunciation and vpice culture. I his study combined with weekly practice has formed this group into a prize winning organization at the River Falls Music Contest. To add to its list of ace mpli-hments. the Chorus put on an ()ratorio entitled the “Holy City in December which was •v.ch a slice: -s and was received so well by Hudson | eople tin: River balls and Stillwater were given the opportunity t; hear this performance. Aside from several splendid assembly programs which were given throughout the year, the Chorus gave a joint concert with a Norwegian Mens Chorus from St. Paul in February. For the Oratorio there were fifty of the hist singers chosen but for the contest there will be a group of only twenty eight who will compete. This represents th. best singers in school, a fact which makes the chances for th Chorus at River Falls those of the best in the la t few years.

BAND Since the present H. S. Band was organized four years ago under the direction of Mr. Dahl there has been marked improvement in this organization each year. Many students have always been interested in playing some instrument and with a little encouragement from the splended director, there has been some fine talent developed through the medium of the band. It has been one of the most active organizations in the school. For most of the pep meetings the Kind is right on hand and nothing helps to inspire Hudson’s teams more than the snappy music of this fine group. Not only peppy music is played however, for several fine assembly programs are given and the band takes part in the annual concert be- fore the contest. Each year the band participates in the Memorial day program and jmrade where its skill in playing and also marching is demonstrated. I -ast year at the contest a new feature, the marching band, was inaugerated, and as a result of much strenuous drill in the spring, Hudson won this event. The band has never won first place in the playing event at the contest and this objective has been set up to work for this year. The Junior Band, which was organized last year, is well represented in the Senior Band and many of its members are a credit to any organization.

THE ORCHESTRA The orchestra lias lyeen one of the most active organizations in school since it was first organized in the fall of 1926 under the efficient leadership of Miss Kmnia Langworthy. We went down to the Third Annual District Music Contest, held at River Falls, without expecting to do anything big hut came home with first honors. Miss Langworthy deserves a great deal of credit for the organizing of our school orchestra which has been continually improving. The following year we came under the new and efficient management of Miss Morrison. There were then twenty eight members and we again succeeded in winning first at the contest. In 1929 the orchestra came under the comjietent leadership of Miss Hanson but Ixecause of the loss of a numlier of our members we received only honorable mention at the contest. Then in 1930 Mr. Dahl, our band director, took over the leadership of the orchestra. Mr. Dahl deserves a great deal of credit for the accomplishment of the orchestra. The first year under his ca]Kihle leadership we received first and last year second at the annual contest. Our orchestra has grown larger and has shown many improvements since the first little group of 1926. THE JUNIOR BAND This Junior Hand is getting a fine start as a foundation for future playing in the Senior Hand and Orchestra. Some of the players are already members of the Senior organizations. Mr. Dahl deserves a great deal of credit for the accomplishments the Junior Hand has already shown. He is liked and admired by all the members. Mr. Dahl has been heard to remark: “1 find the grade students respond to my efforts and apply themselves more than some of the advanced students.” We are very proud of our Junior band lor it has been showing excellent progress since its organization during the early part of 1931 by Mr. Dahl. Three or four months later they played for an assembly program and received quite a “write-up” in the school i«i er. It is now comprised of members from the third to eighth grades inclusive. The individual instrumental sections of the l and have separate practices several times during the week and they have a final rehearsal held on Thursday after school . THE OCTETTE ? t ! % I n Left to Right Robert Holt, Elmore Anderson, Harry Williamson, Herbert Robin ;on, Curtis Burkholder, Frederick Jones, Truman Sodal, Herbert Bonnes. This is the “Warbling Eight,” and those who have had the pleasure of listening to it have to admit that it is a group of jolly fellows. The meml ers have been under the careful supervision of Miss Edith Hanson, and credit her with a great deal of their success. They have made it a practice to meet every Thursday night at seven o’clock for one or two hours. They have enjoyed singing in many programs outside the school and have l een treated like kings while entertaining at churches, house parties, clubs, lodges and out-of-town programs. This has l een the first year of a solid male octette since girls were members last year. 73 THE GERMAN BAND Left to Right Frederick Jones, Howard Askov, George Clapp, Curtis Burkholder Herbert Lovett. The German Hand, first met for practice in the high school auditorium three years ago this spring and has been manufacturing music ever since. The Hand then was made up of the same members that comjx� se it now, and all the boys have enjoyed playing in this organization. The Hand has presented many delightful programs both at school and in near by towns. All the members of the German Rand will end their high school careers this spring. They will then start on a tour through Germany and all will rejoice upon their leaving—? 74 MUSIC CONTEST RIVER FALLS WINS EIGHTH ANNUAL MUSIC CONTEST WITH HUDSON SECOND; NEW RICHMOND THIRD; HUDSON RAND WINS MARCHING CONTEST The eighth annual music contest was ended with Hudson coining out second best although the musicians gave a splendid account of themselves winning five first places, two seconds and three thirds. The Music Memory team also came out on top for the third successive time, entitling them to keep the cup. The representatives of the school all went down to River Falls Thursday, April 28. determined to do their best, whether they won or lost, which was exactly what they did but the best was not quite good enough to win. In the iir t event of the day. our piano soloist. Verna Anderson. failed to gain a place, with Glen wood City taking first and second going to New Richmond. Helen Marie Am-quist in the contralto solos was not given a place although she sang very well. In this event New Richmond and Ellsworth carried otT first and second honors respectively. ()ur soprano. Catherine Windahl. much above the other competition placed first which gave Hudson her first points. Elmore Anderson and Truman Sodal in the tenor and baritone solos, although they sang their l est. were unable to place and Glen wood City and Amery won the honors in these events. ( ur Girls’ Glee Club which performed very well was also unable to score and River Falls started their conquest by winning this event. In the Boys’ Glee Club there was some of the keenest competition of the day with New Richmond coming out on top and Hudson a very close second. Our Mixed Chorus was given third honors with Cumberland taking first on a rather upset decision. Thursday evening began to look a little brighter for us as we succeeded in placing first in three solo events and also with the string quartette. Although our celloist, Margaret Hughes, received third, she nevertheless gave the other contestants some fine competition. In the cornet solo, Curtis Burkholder, repeating his last year's performance, walked away with first prize again. He was immediately followed by Miriam Petersen who also placed first with a fine j erformance. The next event was the clarinet solo in which Herbert Lovett succeeded in a-chieving first with New Richmond a close second. ()ur string quartette with only one other organization to compete with took first again. Edwin Gilbertson in the trombone contest which was a new event this year failed to place. The first event on Friday morning resulted in a rather serious upset for Hudson hopes. Our orchestra, which was thought by many to lie our outstanding organization, was handed third place after having played well enough it seemed to at least have won second. In the Class A bands, our band, slightly angered at the orchestra decision, surprised everyone by a very fine performance to cop second place over New Richmond with River Falls taking first to mass up enough ]joints to make the grand prize secure. After the events at the auditorium were finished, the bands then jiaraded downtown where the marching contest was held. Here Hudson showed much superiority over other bands and was awarded first place over New Richmond to rejieat last year’s performance. THE STUDENT COUNCIL TRUE BLUE STAFF Catherine Tapping, Herbert Bonnes, Elizabeth Johnson, Herman Jensclv Jane Gillen, Herbert Ix vett The True Blue Staff this past year was selected from a large number of volunteers by the faculty. This new method of volunteering was devised in order that students interested in journalistic work might have a chance to display their ability. In producing this annual the memliers of th. staff have compiled a written record of the interests and events of the past year at Hudson High. 1 he Staff of the 1932 True Blue is grateful to the Community Chest and all others who have accepted and supported this publication.

Mr. Rock The Hi V Club is composed of about twenty boys from the Sophomore, Junior and Senior classes, but the majority are Seniors. This organization has had for its objective the promotion of good morals and the encouragement of “Clean sjieech. clean living, e’ean sportsmanship, and clean scholarship.” Under the guidance of Mr. Rock and the leadership of Hugh Hawkins, it has quite reached its aim very successfully. The meetings have been planned with a view toward aiding the lx ys in ascertaining the vocations best suited to them as well as providing them with wholesome entertainment and refreshments. Since most of the members are among the graduating class, it is hoped that the remaining boys will take renewed interest and a great many more will join. DEBATE Debate offers a sure cure for those who wish to overcome the weaknesses of stage fright. This sjx� rt also develops cl ar and quick thinking and offers an opportunity for all who have special ability or a liking for such work. It is felt that the teams have had a vcrv successful season, and had decisions l een given, they would have won manv. DECLAMATORY This year has proved to he an outstanding one in forensics with a large number of eloquent coni] etitors in the field. These declamers and orators l egan the rigors of training in the early j art of March. The | ast year Miss Haase had charge of declamation and Mr. W'eatherhead took up the burden of coaching the orators. Small groups of declamers were assigned to different teachers for training. Everyone worked hard to perfect his oration or declamation and much latent ability was discovered among the several competitors. AND ORATORY In declamatory Marion Hawkins carried off first honors with Evelyn Koenig taking second place and Josepi’.ine Eerlein third. The orators who placed were Howard As-kov, first. Leslie Malloy, second and Lynos Simpson third. All these people did exceptionally well and placed high in th • league contest held at Ellsworth. After several vears have ] assed by. some of the former students of Hudson High will be wandering along the halls of Congress and will hear the voices of some of the congressmen whom they will recognize as the little budding orators of 1932.

I he game for the National Championship l c-tween “Doc” Newton’s Northwestern Wildcats and Herm Jensch’s Southern Cal. Trojans is about to commence. Here it i ! _ Herm kick off to Doc and he returns it 25 yards to the 45 yd. line. Nice return. Here’s the first play—Hey! get that human mountain chewing Beauty Gum out of the way Why, it’s Maxine Cashman, and there is cute littL Gudrun Anderson with her. How are you, girls?—and there goes Askov for 5. 10. 15. 20. 25 yards before he is nailed by Johnny Sawyer on the 14 yd. line. What a run. what a run! Herbie Bonnes was injured on that plav and there go Dot Wright, Phoebe Jensch, and Katherine Tapping onto the field to administer First Aid. Time out now, and till referees, Harold Hunter and A1 Swanson, are having a terrible argument with Margaret Brackey and Helen Kngstrom, the timekeei ers. Emerson through the line—but he’s stopped! Boy. he was hit hard by Chuck King. That boy is laid out, believe me. He s played a swell game so far. too. I here go Eunice Evenson, Florence Flattum. and Vivian Fredlund to revive him. “Specs Becker makes 30 yards before being stopped by Fritz Jones on a head-on tackle. Here is a long, long pass to Stayberg—he’s clear! He’s away! A touchdown for the Wildcats! Now there is a fight George Clapp and Don Coveil, opposing centers, are pulling each other’s hair and calling one another names. Gladys Hanson, Margaret Hughes and Liz Johnson go rushing out to stop them. Burkholder is away around end on the first play, but is toppled by hard-hitting ‘Shorts’’ Olson on the 44 vd. line. On the next play Kay Fyksen tosses a long pass—but it is intercepted by Hughie Hawkins. and he's running wild! With beautiful light steps he dodges would-be tacklers and is over for a touchdown! That is one for the Trojans. Ruth Lovett. “Nookie” Lyksett, and Mildred Marty carry him around the field twice. Barney Persell and Buddy Peterson are fighting—no, they are arguing over which one shall pay for Malted Milks after the game, but Lucy Melton finally intervenes and gives each 25c. They now appear satisfied. Truman Sodal and Russ Lyksett are having a game of tag around Elmer Watkins, while Priscilla Michaelson and Fern Olson are betting on tli? winner. Bud Lovett is badly injured and is carried off the field, while Miriam Petersen is anxi uslv following. A gr.at crowd comjiosed of Maxine Olson. Charlotte Pope, and Morence Ruesink, scatters as Chicago’s six gun man. C ork Dedrick. accompanied bv blushing June Lvstad. enters the stadium just as the game ends. That’s right! the game ends, a tie! 6-6. The Swaner sisters and Wiliiamson cousins are running around in circles—Lutischa lost her handkerchief. evidently, and a serious injury may be inflicted unless they stop. The afternoon entertainment ends as Mary ilcox and Kitty Windahl render two beautiful songs, “Show me the way to go home.” and. “After the Game is over. Reports from Atlantic City state that Merledean Pfeifer was chosen to represent the U. S. on foreign soil in the beauty contests. That is all. folks, this program has come to you through the c mrtesy of the Bulova Watch Company. 83 OH YOU 'CHUCK Hewn v woiflb'; vif WeoC v'L� r SENIORS UK FVntte C SENIOR COOKS Left to Right Virgil Becker, Eunice Evenson, Herbert Bonnes, Catherine Windahl, Lucy Melton, Truman Sodal. Everyone should know the art of cooking. It is a most interesting subject and a pleasure to cook under the supervision of Miss Knutson. These are the cooks who have had charge of the cooking for the school hot lunches. It has given us some exi erience in managing larger dinners. Herbert Bonnes, Truman Sodal. and Virgil Becker are the only male cooks and it has been said that they can •how the girls a few tricks in cooking. Herbert has gained til. reputation of being a good cake maker. The three boys have been cooks for the Hi-Y Club and have prepared many splendid little lunches for that organization. The Inns took cooking after thinking of the modern girls with their handy can openers and cans. If the girls are not careful, the boys will be better than thev are. 86 FEATURE—Impressions of a Faculty Meeting Scene: Mrs. King’s rolling room. Time: 3:45.71 Tuesday afternoon.

Maybe 1 could find a nice ossified one from River Falls. Anyway the well-known bust of A1 Anderson was there, and I thought probably he might like to meet me. Ho hum! Crime doesn’t jay-—neither do late jarties. We read the following in a japer sometime ago: SHOWER BATH SCALDING SUIT NETS ACTRESS $109,269.

OBSERVATIONS If it were not for this favorite occupation of the world at large, of making mountains out of molehills, how peaceful our lives would be—The hand that recks the cradle today is a hired hand. It used to be impossible to get sister to go out on the front j orch in her pajamas to m the paper, but now she will wear them down to the |x st office to get it —There are hundreds of ways of earning a living, but none of them work. 90 FEATURE Steve and Priscilla were saying prolonged goodnite at the door when a window above suddenly opened and a weary voice implored, “Mv dear sir, 1 have no objection to you coming here and sitting half the night with my daughter, nor even to you standing on the doorstep for two hours say-ing goodnight, hut out of the consideration of the rest of the household who would like to sleep, will you kindly take your elbow off the door bell push?” Curtis Burkholder (while introducing the King Scout). “His speech will last until 1940.” Elmore Anderson (In English class), “I capitalized Christian lwcause it is a name of a religion.” Miss Jerdee, Can you tell me how to make a match?” Herbie B., No, but 1 should think you d know how.

The Senior class, divided into four groups, each of which had a table, was very active. Each group had a fine display which showed much initiative and ingenuity. The Juniors made individual posters which seemed very worth-while. This year the members of the Junior ar.d Senior classes showed their interest in what is known as 4 Good Book Week. For several years the idea has been to read and re-|K«rt on more bo ks than those required. This year, through the suggestion of Miss Jerdee and the cooperation of the classes, the idea was greatly improv- 92 ONE ACT PLAY CONTEST “Not Quite Such a Goose” A Comedy by Klizabeth Gale.

Hudson’s work in this activity was especially creditable this year. Xo high honors were won but general public approval of the work was quite manifest. The contest this year was between River Falls, Cumi erland, and Hudson. We placed third. Professor I. M. Cochran of Carle-ton College who judged the contest spoke very favorably of the work bv Hudson and aid that the decision was a close one.

I started from Marathon on my jaunt of nineteen miles. After six or seven miles, however, faintness from lack of fuel began to dis-cjmfort me. After I had gone ten miles I was ready to sacrifice Athens and everybody in it for one drink of water. A small refreshment shop in a hamlet I passed offered itself and I leaped upon it. There wasn’t any water, but plenty of wine. Glass after glass was emptied. In fact so much wine disappeared that when I sought the road again it reeled about in the most amazing manner. I had to h Id tight to keep from being thrown by it. Running was sj ri-dic’lous. I felt so jolly just rollin’ along and telling everybody that everyshing was all right, since the Pershuns were in wild flight. They seemed delighted to hear the good news. I wanted to tarry and tell them all about the fight, but Ashens mush know: so I tripped blithly on, around the end of Mount Pentelicus, and there—stretching out toward the sea and wrapped in purple summer haze, the plains of Attica stood first on one end and then on the other—Attica, safe from the Pershun sword and firebrand. Chivilizhayshun was saved ! ! Wheeeeec — PSYCHOLOGY CLASS STARTS Miss Lee’s psychology class got off to a running start Wednesday.
