Margaret OUR JOLLY JANITORS Mediate Morgan Cunningham Mrs. Maisch McNay Page Fifty-eight If you play cards, you know the mess You’d have if clubs weren’t in the deck; And high school life, you must confess. Without our clubs would be a wreck. The long and toilsome high school year By clubs is shortened, filled with cheer. Girls’ Club - Seniors Officers President....................Ruth Hvslop Vice-President.............Jeannette North Secretary..................Susan Race Treasurer..................Lucy Tilker Adviser....................Mrs. Cowles Girls’ Club was organized in 1924 by Mrs. Jean Cowles, the dean of girls, to promote good citizenship and a spirit of mutual friendliness among the students and to give service to the school. In reviewing its work during this last year it seems that this purpose has been fulfilled in a great measure, for the members of the club have shown a willingness and ;ov in service and work, and in that work have made friendly contacts. It is only through the help of the Little Mother , whom the girls love, that this was so admirably accomplished. Various standing committees along with the facultv advisers and club officers compose the executive board which meets the first Wednesday of every month. The month's work is planned in advance and all club work is first considered at this clearing house . The social committee, headed by Norma Olson, and later by Enid Miller, has been responsible for planning the social events and for arranging for the party given by Girls' Club in honor of the class winning the Ty Humor Contest. The publicity committee whose chairman was Alice Frusher, in addition to the regular club publicity, had charge of arousing interest in the I v humor contest which Girls’ Club has sponsored for two consecutive years. The program committee under the direction of Elizabeth Lester arranged club programs. Mrs. Rosenberrv was one of the speakers procured to address the girls. The treasury was commendablv well increased this year under the direction of Lucy Tilker. treasurer. By the new system of collecting dues of fifteen cents a semest-ter instead of twenty-five, by means of session room representatives, truly excellent response was made bv the junior and senior girls. Some session rooms attained one hundred per cent, and the total percentage was the highest in the history of the club. The maintenance of a student loan fund to which the club is pledged in its constitution was the biggest project of the year. This fund is a permanent source of aid to any pupil who finds himself temporarily unfitted to meet high school expenses. The club feels gratified in finding that the fund has functioned better this year than ever before.

Beryl Slightam Program....................Elizabeth Lester Publicity..................Alice Frusher Social. ...................Norma Olson. Enid Miller At times the club votes to award a scholarship of $100 to a worthy girl of high scholastic standard and outstanding character. This sum. it is realized, can mitigate only in a small way the great expense that higher education necessitates. To increase the fund which makes possible these loans anti scholarships, it has Income the custom of the club to conduct an annual Service Shop sale in the spring. This sale becomes an enterprise of almost the entire school, lor contributions from students and faculty too. are solicited. Lorraine Demarest. chairman of the ways and means committee of the club, was general chairman of this year’s sale. Sub-chairmen ol the soliciting, collecting, marking, ami selling committees were picked from the finance committee to aid in managing the sale. Credit for the success ol the project is greatly due the Mother chairmen wTio aided the girls so willingly, Mrs. Bartlett. Mrs. Icke, Mrs. Hastings, and Mrs. Freeman, and all those other mothers who sent in their contributions and offered their services. A new project to raise money for the fund was undertaken this year by the ways and means committee. The club sponsored a Christmas card sale both in and outside of school. Through the cooperation of the art classes ami teachers, three designs were made and chosen lor use on the cards. The school printing classes under the direction ol Mr. Ilarrv Bergner, printed the cards. Ill rough the aid ol Superintendent Gosling and Miss Irene Buck, many cards were sold in the city grade schools. A profit ol 113 dollars was realized for the student loan fund. Girls’ Club has been most fortunate in the aid of advisers. Mrs. Cowles, the club founder ami sponsor, has always stood bv to offer advice ami encouragement to the girls in their problems and has participated in their pleasures too. Her whole-hearted devotion to the club’s good is responsible lor much ol its success. Miss Annah Pierce, Miss Amelia Yeager. Miss Jeanette Marsh, Miss Cathrine Moore, and Miss Esther Hibbard, have contributed much to its success.

A. A.’s existence, it has grown to be one of the most active organizations oi the school. The aim of the organization is to promote athletic interest and good sportsmanship among the girls. It also gives to those girls who cannot make a team localise ol their inability to start in any one particular sport, a chance to take part in athletic games. Every girl winning a point toward the big “M” is eligible to lx voted on for membership in G. A. A. The organization, which is limited to sixty girls, is divided into five groups with a captain at the head of each group. The clul. meets on alternate .Mondays, when after a short business meeting, the different groups play games. Each person in the winning group receives a point toward the ring and at the end of the year, each of the three girls who have won the highest number of points receives a ring as a mark ol recognition. This year the schedule of games has l ecn somewhat different from the preceding years. The club decided to play only one baseball game each meeting, so that the girls may leave earlier and play in the open air. Since its organization in 1922, it has been the tradition of the club to stage a pageant in the spring of each year. East year it combined with the other departments of the school in presenting the all-school pageant, .Music Through the Ages”. This year, however, instead ol the pageant, G. A. A. conducted a health week program. Health posters were displayed, and three programs containing folk-dancing, a play, and an explanation of some slides on the subject of health, were presented during three twenty-minute auditorium peri xls on Alay second, fourth, andjsixth. The organization also provides for the welfare of others. This year it has given Christmas dinners to three poor families. It is only under the excellent sponsorship and boundless help ol Aliss Irma Baus and Aliss .Marguerite Shepard that the club has been able to progress so rapidly; to them goes the praise for its wonderful success.

The purpose ol the club is to foster clean athletics and wholesome living on the part of its members. All boys who have received their official “M”, which is the highest athletic honor conferred upon Central students, are eligible. Since it is also required that “M” club members have good scholastic standings, the number of eligible players lor football and basketball is materially increased. Activity that furthers the interest and advancement of the school is fostered by the club, which attempts to cooperate with the school in all of its undertakings. I ast year “M” club undertook the responsibility of conducting mass meetings and successfully carried on the work again this year. The club secured many prominent speakers for the assembly, among them Coach Little, University football coach; Mr. “Jimmy” Brader, assistant football coach at Harvard University; and Captain Doyle Harmon of the University of Wisconsin football team. The club has also been very helpful in making the necessary arrangements for athletic events. At football and basketball games members of “M” club assisted in the sale of tickets, in the arrangement of the bleachers, in marking the field for football games, and in helping with any other arrangements that were necessary. The club has practically doubled its membership since its formation. Mr. Hippaka, of the Manual Arts Department, is its sponsor, and under his efficient leadership it is now functioning among the most active clubs of the school. i Page Sixty two Social Committee Top Row: Riuer, Sulir.

This year's committee introduced a change bv deciding to hire an outside orchestra for all its parties. By doing this it was believed that, with proper advertisement, their social activities would be more successful than they have i ecn in the past. The Social Committee consists of eight 12A’s, seven 12B’s, six ll.Vs, five MB’s, lour lOA's, three lOB’s, elected by the different classes to represent them, two 9A's and one 9B appointed by the chairman of the committee. There are ten teachers on the Social Committee of which Mrs. Cowles is chairman. The teachers are chosen to serve for two years. There are many matinee dances given during the year, and a few evening parties. The two traditional events of the year are a Halloween anti Christmas party; however, due to the fact that a Christmas play was given for the whole school, no Christmas party was held this year. A Washington Birthday party was given for the juniors and seniors. 'I he most enjoyable of all the parties is the Girls’ Frolic, a costume affair, held for all the girls of the school. The school social calendar is as follows: First Sc mcster September 17 Freshman Frolic October 1—All School Matinee Octolier 15—Girls’Club Party October 29—All School Matinee November 19—Costume Party December 5—All School Matinee January 26 Senior Dinner January 28—Commencement Party Second Semester February 18 Junior Senior Dance February 21 Frosh-Soph Dance March 11 All School Matinee March 18—All School Matinee April 8—All School Matinee May 6—Girls’ Frolic May 15 Tv” Humor Party lune 8 Senior Dinner June 10—Commencement Party Page Sixty-three French Club Fop Row: I hclan, Swafford.

It furnishes amusement as well as instruction During the class period the time is so limited that one can learn only the fundamentals of the language, but it is in the French Club that one gets the opportunity to use the knowledge obtained in class. The organization meets on alternate Thursdays. Only those who have had a year of French are eligible to membership. The meetings are conducted entirely in French; a short business meeting is followed by a program of games or plays. This year the club was fortunate in securing Mile. Boissot of the University French Department to address them. Sometimes French plays are presented by members of the club. French Club was largely responsible for the production of the play Pauvre Sylvie,” which was presented in the auditorium for French students. A valentine program was given on February 10. Each member made a valentine in a given time, and the one drawing the best, received a prize. Candy hearts with French phrases on them were served. This year, for the first time, French Club voted to have a club pin. The pin is in the form of a triangle with a guard with the letters L. E. F. standing for the French motto “Liberte, Egalite, Fraternite.” The Club was glad to receive Miss Gould as a new adviser, and much credit is due Miss Young for her untiring and helpful interest throughout the Club’s entire existence.

M iss Havinghurst Since 1916, when G. D. C. was formed, it has been one of the most active and successful clubs in Central. The purpose of the club is to give the members training in debating and to stimulate school-wide interest in this activity. Meetings are held every other Thursday, at which debates are given bv various club members. This year G. D. C. secured as its sponsor. Miss Havinghurst, public speaking teacher; and it is largely through her efforts that the club completed such a • successful year. The programs given at the meetings usually consist of debates on topics of current interest, or talks on principles of debating and on parliamentary procedure. Under the leadership of Miss Havinghurst G. D. C. has been very active in debating. The annual G. D. C.—Forum debate was given, G. D. C. coming out victorious. G. 1). C. also challenged Wisconsin Hi h School to two debates, and G. D. C. won both. As a means of enlarging its finances, the club conducted several sandwich and candy sales; this proved to be very successful a way of securing monev. It has been customary for G. D. C. and Forum to have a joint picnic at the end of eacn year; this year, however, on account of the disbanding of the Forum, G. D. C. had its own picnic. This year the club revived the old idea of having a club pin. The pin is in the form of a start with snakes coiled around it. It is a custom of the club to award gold I)’s as a mark of recognition to those appearing in a public debate with another debating club or school; this year they were awarded to the G. I). C.— Forum debaters. Page Sixty-five In terclit b Deb a ti ng Julia Wigonitz Dorothy Kam.sdell Lucy Tiiker The twelfth annual debate between G. I). C. ami Forum was held the first semester of this year instead of the second, and formed the most important inter-club debate of the year. The subject for the debate was: “Resolved, that a National Department of Education, as proposed bv the Curtis-Reed Bill, should be adopted’'. For the twelfth consecutive time, G. D. C. was victorious. .Miss Gladys Borchers, debating coach at Wisconsin High School, acted as a single critic judge. G. I). C. was represented on the affirmative side by Lucy Tiiker, Dorothy Ramsdell, Julia Wigonitz; Carl Filter, Donald Hastings and Morton Melnick, with Freeman Heim as alternate, upheld the negative side lor Forum. G. D. C. also held a debate with Wisconsin High School on the same subject, and was represented by the same team that debated Forum. This debate was held at Wisconsin High school, and Mr. Wells, of the Speech Department of the University, who judged the debate, awarded the decision to G. D. C. The second semester, G. I). C. held another debate with the Wisconsin High Debating Club. This time the junior members of both clubs participated. Each club furnished two teams; the negative team in each case (ravelled to the other school. The question. “Resolved, that final examinations should be abolished in high schools” was debated. The affirmative G. I). C. team was upheld by Selnfa Tiiker, Mabel Dee ring, and Ruth Olden berg; the negative team by Ruth Stephenson, Lura Walkerand Mary Cowley. Morton Melnik Donald Hastings Carl Filter Interscholastic Debating I.illian Bcv Wi liam Lumpkin Milton Slavncy Rofsell Ilil l ar«l 1 his year the inlcrscholastic debating was under the supervision of Air. Dixon, a new teacher in Central, who proved very successful in arousing an interest in debating ami in developing strong teams. The triangular debate including the Watertown. Wisconsin, and Central High Schools was held the second week in May. 'I he question was: “Resolved, that the United States government should refuse military protection to property which is owned by its citizens on foreign soil”. The question was recently debated among Wisconsin, Northwestern, and Minnesota Universities. The affirmative for Central was supported by Don Hastings, William Lumpkin, Selma 'bilker, and Lillian Bey; and negatives, by Russell Hibbard, Roger Ball. Milton Slavnev. anti Katherine Gregg. The question involved such problems as, shall we get out of Nicaragua, Mexico, and China, or shall we stay in? It included considerations of patriotism, commercialism, militarism, anti imperialism. It considered the integrity of the foreign holdings of Amer-can citizens; it challenged a great and established national policy; and, in view of the world movement for peace anti a recollection not yet dimmed of the cost in lives and monev ol the great World War, it raised the question of discarding as a cause of international misunderstanding and enmity, the military enforcement of investment privileges in foreign territories. Consideration of such questions were of great help to the listeners as well as to the debaters.

For four years Mr. Paul Sanders has been very faithfully building a band anti an orchestra that have become indispensable to the school. 'I he musicianship displayed by both the director anti the members of the two organizations at a concert given A lay 13. convinced the audience that a high degree of success has been attained. The Central High School Orchestra grows larger and belter with each succeeding year, in spite of the loss ol senior players at the end of each season. One of the chief reasons lor this steady growth is the instrumental training given to children in the grades. The high school groups are the top rung of the instrumental ladder in the public schools, anil the aim is to keep the standard high and the goal worthy. With this in mind, the repertoire of music is chosen for its real worth. If. at the same time, the music is difficult, technical problems add zest. Many short numbers have to he in constant readiness for the numerous engagements which the Orchestra is requested to fill, hut time is taken for the study of one or more of the larger forms. Ibis year Schubert s Unfinished Symphony was studied, and Haydn’s Surprise Symphony” was plaved by Central’s Orchestra in conjunction with the Madison Civic Orchestra. The orchestral year began most auspiciously with the week of playing for the Community Union luncheons, d hen followed the usual activities: concerts at the State Soldiers’ Hospital, and music for the Catholic Women’s Club, for the Southern Wisconsin Teachers’ Convention, for radio, auditorium periods, the Capitol Christmas Pageant, “Eager Heart”, Little Women”, two commencements, and for other services to school anil community which give the orchestra a raison d'etre.

And in the school there is probably no group that is more generally in demand, for a band functions all year, indoors and outdoors. It is to measure up to this two-fold responsibility that Central High School’s Band is constantly striving. It was organized in 1920 under the leadership of .Mr. Tomlinson, a former member of the faculty. Mr. Jacquish took up the work the following year, and the band grew to forty-live members. In 1923. due to the opening of Fast Side High School, many members were lost to the band, ami since that time it has been the custom for the Fast Side and Central Bands to act as a unit on special occasions. Furnishing music at the unveiling of the Heg Memorial Statue, the Christmas Opening, the Little International Stock Show, the Memorial Day Parade, and for radio were some of its contributions to community activity. Within the school were football and basketball games, auditorium periods, the May Fete, and the Spring Concert. A bassoon and another French horn have been welcome additions to the instrumentation of the band. A l eginning has also been made on a new type of uniform. About five members were lost to the band by graduation at the end of the first semester. New members gradually worked into their places, and the band has finished the year with the word Success”.

All of the costumes, with the exception ol the garments worn by Miles Standish and John Aldcn, were made in the home economics department of the School. The dramatics department has been successful not only in putting forth plays, but also in providing recreation for the student body of Central High. An entirely new system of auditorium programs has been arranged which was successfully carried out during the entire year. Programs presented by the different departments of the school have been given every Wednesday; cne Wednesday during the month a music program was presented for the whole school, while on the other Wednesdays the programs were staged alternately lor the freshmen ami sophomores, anti juniors anti seniors. Such a systematic arrangement of programs, while providing recreation for the students, benefits all the classes of Central and makes them better acquainted with the different fields of work in the school. The departments represented were the mathematics, the commercial, the French, the German, the public speaking, the art. the history, the biology, the music, and the English, under the leadership of Mrs. Cowles. Mr. Waehler, Mrs. Sharp, Miss Marsh, Miss Havinghurst, Miss While, Mr. Stoddard. Mr. Slagg, Mr. Sanders, anti Miss Hargrave, respectively.

This play was given with the purpose of awakening a Christmas spirit of friendship and good will among the people in the audience. The play was given in the afternoon for grade school children, and a performance in the evening was open to the public. Members of the high school glee clubs sang, accompanied by members of the school orchestra. Page Seventy-three Little Women Top Row: Hanchctt. Pembleton. Lester. Mi« Cooper. Lohff. Coster.

As each of the little women had at least three changes in costume, an unusually lar«;c number ol costumes was necessary, despite the small cast. Some of these were furnished by the students, some were made by the home economics department, and others were rented. Instrumental numbers, furnished bv the high school orchestra under the leadership of Mr. Paul Sanders, were given between acts of the play and before and after it started. This was the last play of the season, and it is only with the untiring help and under the excellent leadership of Miss Cornelia Cooper that the dramatics department has been able to end so successfully one of its most active years in the history of the school.

On February 16, 1926, the two staffs met at Central and drew up a constitution. The constitution provides that the object of the club shall be to foster an interest in newspaper work, to supply journalistic instruction for staff members, and to facilitate cooperation among the various staffs in attaining these objects. The membership is open to all high school staff members. The meetings are held at times convenient to both staffs, alternating the place of meeting between Central anti Fast Side high schools. The Press Club is especially fortunate in being able to secure speakers from the university as well as from the city paper staffs. Among the speakers who addressed the club are Professor Grant Hyde of the journalism department of the university; and Mr. Don Anderson, managing editor of the State Journal; Mr. W. T. Evjue, editor of the Capital Times; and James Nelson, managing editor of the Daily Cardinal. Two interesting and instructive features of the club's program were the visit through the newly constructed State Journal plant, and a movie entitled “The Making of a Magazine” which was shown through the courtesy of the University Extension Division. The Press Club has but recently been organized, and it is our hope that it can make those strides in journalistic progress which it has undertaken. Page Seventy-five Mirror The third year of the Madison Mirror s existence finds it an established organization at Central. The idea of having a school paper at Central was first suggested by the mid-year graduating class of 1925 under the leadership of Edwin Yickerev. An auditorium meeting was held to discuss the possibility, and the school voted unanimously in favor of the proposition. From a number of nominees the positions on the first Mirror were filled as follows: Marion Greer, editor; Arthur Gosling and fudson Kempton. assistant editors; James Hanks, boys sports editor; Alice Blake, girls’ sports editor; Clarence Batchellor, humor editor; Arline Findorff. club editor; John Miller. exchange editor; Katherine Kuehn, Leonora Flynn, Elizabeth Lyman, and Alice O’Neil, special writers; and Jack McKenna, business manager. Miss Mary Hargrave, head of the English department, sponsored the paper. The second year Miss Edith Iselv and Miss Ruth Skewes of the English department became the advisers of the paper in the stead of Miss Hargrave. First place in the four-column class in the front-page make-up contest was awarded the Mirror. Sixteen issues, including two special six page numbers, were published that year. Last year the more dependable practice of selling semester and yearly subscriptions of the paper was inaugurated to supplant the old single copy sale. The Mirror was changed from a four-page four-column tabloid to a four-page five-column paper similar to the Daily Cardinal of the University, but carrying no advertisements. In spite of the experimental period the paper went through, progress enough was made to secure the Mirror a second class rating in the Central Interscholastic Press Association Contest. Since its formation the Mirror has carried no advertising matter because that practice was contrary to the policy of the school, but the entire paper has been devoted to news and features. Through active campaigning or crusading Journalism last year, the Mirror effected the removal of the school’s trophy case from the dark corner in the auditorium to the lower hall, legislation restricting student activities, and a revision of the method of selecting the Tv” stall'. The Mirror has proved a success not only in publishing school news but in affording the staff valuable training in clear, concise thinking and writing. Great credit should be given Miss Iselv anil Miss Skewes whose excellent work has contributed to the success of the Mirror. Page Seventy-six Mirror Reporters Top Row: Knrberg. Suhr.

Our poet is reading and writing with scorn. Why should he work so despairingly. Erect, all attention, face much worn? He surely is having a fearful time Finding the words to suit his rhyme. gj TYCHOBER HN .ALICC SICCCLKO Peter Arnold read the last page of “1 he Shriek in the Night,” and as he regretfully closed the book, he wished that something would happen—a mysterious Chinaman walk through the room, leaving a trail of blood, or a knife appear suddenly, quivering in the wall. He wondered what would happen if he should arise and say grimly to the teacher, Fly; all is discovered.” He decided not to, however, as it might embarrass her. He yawned, and picked tp the r.cte Eilly bad sent him. Billy was no worse than most freshmen, but he would never te thought of in connection with mysterious footprints in the garden. ” ‘Have you seen Peter?’ ” read Arnold. Who in thunder is Peter?” Arnold never admitted ignorance, so he wrote, Send fingerprints and previous record. Yours in the dark of the moon, A.II.R.” 1 hen, after examining the message carefully with a magnifying glass, he decided it might be a code of some kind and began to decipher it by reading backwards, omitting letters, and transposing words. '1 he energy so used, until the bell rang, would have translated ten pages of Latin. At the final bell, Billy rushed up to him, and asked anxiously, What did you mean by finger prints?” The lines on the end of the fingers which are supposed to be conclusive evidence of presence at the scene of the crime, but in the case of the murder of-” But Peter hasn't got any fingers,” interrupted Billy. Don’t be foolish! Who is this Peter, anyhow?” “My pet toad,” answered Billy. Have you seen him?” I had a pet rabbit once,” said Arnold after a thoughtful pause. 1 had him in my locker in a box, and now lie's gone.” Poor Sherlock Nicholas Carter died and is now buried amid the rhubarb and onions,” continued Arnold sadly. “Huh? I thought maybe you’d seen Peter.” Ah, a disappearance case,” Arnold reflected. This looked like a chance to do some detective work. Detectives must start somewhere, and what was lower than a toad? How much money have you?” asked Arnold. Two nickels, a dime, four pennies, and a street-car check. Why?” Thanks. You can keep the pennies and the car check,” said Arnold generously. Now, take me to your locker, and your—your friend will soon be restored to your arms. Get a move on.” ir ni .... iogy in7 i Page Eighty-one m tycmoberahFTIE PETER Here it is, said Billy. But I think it would be better to tell the ‘Lost and Found' about my Peter. Yes, indeed. And what would vou say when they asked how the live-stock came to be in school in the first place? You leave this to me. Arnold dropped his books to the floor, and put his hands into his pockets. Now, just where was Galanad? In the locker in my coat pocket in a tin box with a tight cover. And his name's Peter after my uncle. Does your uncle know it? Had you brought this Peter to school often? Oh, yes. I always take him places. He sleeps with me at night. A lot of people know where you keep him, I suppose? Of course. Peter likes to meet people. Remember anybody especially interested? W-e-ell, there was one big fellow wanted to know if Peter had a nervous system, and what he ate. Arnold whistled softly something that at times resembled a tune and then asked, Where's your lock? Riglit up here on the shelf where nobody can take it. Arnold suddenly awoke to activity. He looked under and on top the locker. He went over it with his magnifying glass, and he ended by hauling everything out and strewing it on the floor. Then, with an expression of satisfaction, he arose and began to remove some of the dust from his person. Ferdinand the Ferrit, he remarked, never fails. I don't see how you can find my Peter by talking, said Billy with disapproval. Me talk! exclaimed Arnold in amazement. Why I'm one of those strong, silent men. Arnold stationed himself with his feet apart, about two feet away from Billy, commanding him to look him straight in the eye, and no monkey business. Now, he said, do you see this pencil? Yes, and you don't need to put my eye out with it! It's mine. I recognize it by the color, the size, and the dents my teeth made in it during the last Latin quiz. I found it in that locker. Yesterday I lent it to a fellow called Rollendorf after a dearly loved rich uncle. Well, Rollie is famous for his ability to lose things, pencils included. He dotes on nervous systems and biology, and in the summer he sits on ant hills with magnifying glasses. He's a big fellow, ana he's quite likely to as personal questions about digestive apparatuses. Does it penetrate? He has a good many classes on this floor in the afternoon, and it's easy for him to get your little brother while passing by. You may applaud now. Did you get all that from that pencil?” EDI iQa7 lDFA Page Eighty-two TYCHOECRAHE 1 PETER My gosh, what have I been talking about for the last ten hours? Ey the best logic I've proved motive, opportunity, presence in the locality and everything else! What more do you want? I want Peter! Well, I know where he is. If you’ll keep still and not talk so much, we can sneak up on Rollie and get him. But be careful, because he’s a big fellow, and I don't want to be getting any black eyes. They cause embarrassing questions. Now come on, and keep still. They crept silentlv down the hall, Arnold cautioning, Hist , at intervals. It seemed to him an occasion where something of the sort should be said. That's him over—Hey, come back, you idiot! shouted Arnold. Where's my Peter? shrieked Billy, rushing past Arnold. His unexpected attack forced Rollie back, and he landed gracefullv in the waste basket. A box fell witfi a clatter, and Billy wailed Peter! Then he tried to move Rollie's nose over to his right ear. Arnold, helpless with laughter, was weakly trying to separate them when a scandalized voice asked, Boys! What is the meaning of this? When no one seemed to know, she continued icily, We expect this conduct from first-graders. Let us have no more of this disturbance. You should have been out of the building long ago, and we don't want to be disturbed again! And she retired. That's that. Aren’t you ashamed of yourself, Rollie? said Arnold. No! snapped Rollie, as he moved his tie back where it belonged. He was not used to being put in waste baskets. Billy stanched his nose with his cuff, and glared. I want Peter! said Billy. Let go my collar, you; and I'll lick him again, the big cheese! Say, you little one-sixteenth pint, you couldn't lick me in a thousand years. If you hadn't jumped on me------ There, there, said Arnold soothingly, you both did quite a bit of damage. But don't make so much noise. Give me Peter! “Yes, Rollie, give back your spoils. Will you come quietly or must I call the wagon?” Oh, take it then! I never saw so much fuss over one measly toad. I can get me one of mv own in the garden anyhow. It landed someuliere around here; all you got to do is pick it up, Billy,” said Arnold. There's the cover over there. After some search, Billy declared it wasn't any place around, and he looked meaningly at Rollie. Nobodv is more peaceable than I am, said Rollie thoughtfully, but someone's going to get hurt pretty soon.” EDI _______________________ 19 7 izzipg] Page Eighty-three Pfrfl] TYCHOBER HiriP PETER Threaten me, will you, you big thief, stealing my--- The teacher appeared again. Didn't I tell you to go home? There's entirely too much noise out here! If we're bothered again, you can visit the office the first thing to-morrow!” And as she turned to go, a small box edged out from beneath a locker and slowly followed her. Wha—what’s that!” gasped Billy stepping backwards on Rollie's toes. I guess it’s Cuthburt,” said Arnold calmly. “Oh 'said Billy, “it's Peter! Here, Peter!” Don’t make so much noise,” whispered Rollie. I've worn out enough chairs in that office! Get him quick before he gets in that room. I got my name on that box!” Well, you are bright! Why?” asked Arnold disgustedly. To avoid complications,” explained Rollie vaguely. “Like changing license plates on a car. You aren t the only one who reads the crime news.” You hadn't any right to be doing that,” said Billy angrily. I already had my name on it, and my session room, and Peter's name, and my telephone number-------” That's enough,” interrupted Arnold. If they get that box, you’re both sunk.” Why, those teachers in there wouldn’t keep Peter, w ould they?” asked Billy anxiously. Oh no,” said Arnold, they’ll get rid of him as fast as possible. That's the trouble.” Peter, inside the box, started to move again, into the center of the room. He was in plain view of anyone who turned around. How does he go like that?” asked Rollie fascinated. When it fell, the cover fell off, but the box landed up side down on your little friend, and when he jumps the box does too. Us detectives know everything. ’ All right,” said Billy triumphantly, get Peter out of there. Mister Detective!” “Very well,” said Arnold calmly. He paced up and down the hall a few minutes, with his hands in his pockets, and the pencil between his teeth. Rollie,” he said finally, can you go off by some door and holler, and then beat it without being seen and connected with the crime?” Yes, I can do that all right.” Do so. And if that's red ink over there, take a couple of bottles and make a nice pool of blood. Here-----” Arnold felt around in the corner, and came up with an aged and battered knife. He looked fondly at it, and remarked, I’d hate to have this as mv only weapon to commit a murder with, but it’ll do. Take this with you and leave it with the blood—ink stains. And don't get caught because then I’d have to confess I was the brains of the affair. Holler bloody murder, and make it good and loud. Good-bye.” Billy, when you hear an awful noise, dive in and get Peter. They'll all be rushing out and won’t notice you.” Why can’t you get Peter,” asked Billy nervously. He wasn't so sure of not being noticed. Because I don’t intend to get bitten by a misguided hop-toad at my age, and besides its your funeral.” Help! Fire!! Police! Hel-lup!!! MUR-R-DER!” Rollie was a conscientious boy and was putting his soul into his work. The depth of feeling in his cries was caused by the suspicion that his efforts to find out about the home life of the lowly toad would not be looked on with favor. Billy, as Arnold had expected, w hen everyone had rushed out of the room, ran in and caught Peter, placing him tenderly in his breast pocket. Arnold seized the incriminating box which Billy had forgotten. Then he secured a fire-extinguisher and made himself useful by heading off anyone who seemed to be going in the right direction. When he thought Rollie had had time to escape he, hung up the fire extinguisher and prepared to answer questions. Some people have suspicious natures. Arnold, what do you know about this?” he was asked. She was well acquainted ]fWr] Page Eighty-tour TYC.HOBEfc HN iffffl PETER with him, which perhaps accounts for her unworthy suspicions. Why ' said Arnold truthfully, I was here all the time. Ask William. She looked doubtful, but he was saved by the shout of the janitor that something had happened, there was blood all over.the floor. In the following excitement, they siltnely departed. Hereafter, said Arnold, train your little pets to do their tricks at home. It’ll be a joke on somebody if they try to analyze that ink to see if it’s human or animal blood. They walked on for a while in silence. Anyway,” he said cheerfully, we've given them a grand detective storv and something to talk about, so they ought to be grateful. But they probably won t, so if you know what's good for ou, you’ll behave like an angel for awhde. Some of them aren’t so dumb as they look Alice Siggelko A DOG'S LIFE There is probably no phrase among all (he far-fetched expressions of modern slang quite so false as, It’s a dog's life. Everyone has his own private interpretation of the condition which this phrase implies, and his interpretation usually depends on his work and mode of life. Whenever these change, his idea of a dog's life also changes. However, to all known creatures except the dog itself, it signifies an unfavorable condition. When one asks a schoolboy or girl how he likes his school work, he will probably reply, It's a dog’s life. I have to get up often as early as eight in the morning, bolt down my breakfast, and rush off to school. 1 he teachers are down on me, the studies are tough, and, on top of everything, I have spring fever. Who ever heard of a dog getting up at a set hour in the morning, or, in fact, doing any of the things which, according to the boy’s statement, compose a dog's life? A dog may wake up and go out of doors when his family arises in the morning, or he may continue to slumber peacefully on, unless by some forgetfulness of the members of the family he was enabled to enjoy the rare luxury of sleeping in the big armchair, only to be led by his own code of ethics to forsake it for the best rug early in the morning. After the dog goes out doors, he may come home for one or four meals during the day, according to the happenings in the course of his eventful day. Routine which seems to lie one of the most unfavorable elements in the slang dog’s life, is not to be found in a real dog's life. In almost every case a real dog’s life is pleasant. He can always find himself plenty of excitement chasing rabbits or other animals, or, as a last resort, his own tail. Most dogs have kind masters, but even if their masters are cruel, they can always run away from them. For cat’s sake let me lead a real dog's life! Russel L. Hibbard YOUTH Moments of tenderness, moments of cruelty, too. Moments of happiness, moments of deepest blue. Moments of somber thought, self pity, or pain. Moments of thoughtlessness all chaff and no grain. Moments innumerable of lies or truth— All these are combined in a normal youth. Ronald M. Fuller Page Eighty-five qffll TYCHOBERyMiM iiP A THOUGHT As I rode through the Loop in Chicago, I saw a sight that thrilled me through and through: A mighty people. I see them now as they come and go. All in a mighty city, a sight in thought I oft-review, Each bent upon some worthy purpose in duty bound to help another light. I thought they are each for all, and all for each. That's why this city prospers; why, in the great strife About us, it lives and has a far extending reach.

Of a fairy with a cocked hat and laughing eyes alert. Lightly poised, as if not long she has to tarrv In the meshes of the moonlight on the sill wnich is her perch. And behind her is the night where the stars boldly twinkle, For well they know my fairy is their plavmate, never old. Perpetual youth is hers! Nightly as to Fairyland she passes, She seems to beckon and to whisper, “Do you not want to go?' But the fairy does but mock me, and I think she is a tease When she certainly must know that, although I long to go, To step within her frame and to Fairyland depart is not by human done with ease. Yes, I am sure that she must know, for many are the times when I have told her so. Florence King F TII ' irP l Page Ninety r Y CIIO Btfkl IN PINE TREES Like harps you murmur low, and sigh. And croon soft melodies of wondrous things, When gentle breezes sweep your dusky strings; Like harps you voice with haunting, wailing cry The melancholy secret of the mourning doves.

Anil really it was, oh, as tall As sixty heights of me. It was very interesting. As I did look it o'er. I had seen it many times. But ne'er this way before. Its branches towered up As if to reach the sky. It looked so tall and mighty That I wished that it were I. Pearl Small THOUGHTS In the consolation of past memories. Comes many a happy hour with half-forgotten things; Good times, sad times, faces that one sees In a clouded haze; one thought another brings. Longing to live again sweet moments long since gone by. Straining to see loved faces before they fade away. Dreaming and wondering in vague quiet we lie, Thinking again and again of some sweet by-gone day. But in that misty musing when suddenly we come. With hasty recollection to the hurrying present time; ’• • • Our thoughts revert for the moment to the work still to be done. And a voice within us cries in soft low tones sublime: “Memories are yours to cherish and hold true. But only after the present work is over and is through.

Hearts, light hearts, laughing there, All go on with ne'er a care; Let them laugh while yet they may. All too soon will come the day When youth must face the trials of life. And bear with courage all its strife. So while the way yet bright doth seem. Let glorious laughter reign supreme! Mildred Webb Goodness, school this morn is sleepy!

William Lumpkin A PAUSE IN A TRIP Here is a beautiful spot, dear companion, in which to rest and discuss those things which we have observed around our city this day. After this trip can you longer doubt concerning the completeness of all Nature in Madison? The flowers, the trees, the birds —all these things that we have seen—remove all doubts that the out-of-doors of our city is beautiful and not lacking. How many birds, my friend, did we see and of what use are they to our people? That is how we are apt to judge the value of most things. It is a saying that “where there are trees there must be birds.” This is so, for, if there were no birds, the trees would become so insect and worm infested that they would have no chance, whatsoever, to live. What flsh do you think could escape from these birds if something were wrong with it? Yet our fishermen complain that certain birds ought to be killed because their food consists of fish. Oh, we could talk for nours about the good turns done us by the birds. Let these few examples, however, suffice to show us that Madison does not lack the aid, nor the beauty of birds in songs and color. That our trees'are healthy and beautiful was evident on our trip. We saw today, aside from those planted by our fine University for experimental purposes as well as for beauty, almost fifteen kinds of trees. Their great numlier we saw, my friend, when we were on some of the hills. Why, sometimes we could see nothing but trees an d sky. It is needless to say anything about the beauty of trees in full bloom or in the fall when the color of the leaves is changing. You hourself have seen these things. The strength brought out in a great gnarled oak is w’onderful; the shade of an elm tree in hot weather is a blessing; the odor ot a few evergreens is enrapturing; and, oh, the many comforts we derive from our trees. Concerning our flowers, comrade, indeed, many people have their little flower gardens which are naturally a great pleasure in a city, but our city also has many wild flowers. As we walked along through the woods, we crushed violets and blue bells under foot. We tgrji________ ' 101 7 ' ihf ] Page Ninety-three SHU TYCHOBER MiN lEP A PAUSE IN A TRIP stopped in the cool shade and admired the dark green jacks-in-the-pulpit. We saw shooting stars, wild sweet peas, and stemless lady slippers. On a stony hillside we gazed upon bunches of honeysuckle. We came to a marsh which was actually covered with cowslips and marsh marigolds. In meadows which we passed were myriad numbers of anemones and hepaticas. California boasts about her beautiful flowers; but, after studying our wild flow'ers, my friend, I think we find that our Madison has an equal number. The treatment which our wild animals have received and even now do receive is a tragedv. Our grandfathers can remember when they saw deer and bears and other wild animals around here. But now, ah me, we have nothing but a few rabbits, squirrels, mink, otter, and other of the smaller animals. And, indeed, even these are being hunted for the little meat on them or trapped for their skins. It certainly is a fine thing that the “Ike Waltoners have set aside the area around Lake Wingra as a game reservation. Now, my good friend, just to consider the completeness of Madison's Nature, let us picture this place under a group of oak trees in which, just a minute ago, a pair of magnolia warblers were twittering merrily away. Under that tree on the right on this side of that colorful patch of wild sweet peas is a hole from which a gopher, seeing we mean him no harm, has just emerged. Before us lies the lake over which a cool and soothing breeze is blowing. There are a few gulls circling around over it, and a man is in a boat fishing. Closer to the shore is a raft on which there are two bovs in bathing suits. Therefore are these trees so healthy because we have such an abundance of birds. Today we saw thirty and three kinds of birds? I have a friend who has seen almost five times that great number in one year around our Madison, Such a variety suggests a great abundance of our winged friends. Of these birds which help the trees we saw many warblers and woodpeckers. How many of them were not working away happy, industrious, and unconcerned except with their labors? Oh, if we could be so nappy at our work as the singing of these birds suggests that they are! Think of the great amount of good,- my friend, that these inhabitants of the air do for us. Some, like the statelv and solitary herons which stand in the shallow water each on one long leg, and like the kingfishers, cleanse our lakes. And, too, balancing the creations of Nature, we see, comrade, over the tops of the trees, the institutions of man. There is the dome of the capitol, reminding us that our city is the capital of our state; we behold there the domes and spires of the different University buildings; farther to the right are the red spires of the court house, which can be seen plainly in the bright rays of the sun. Doesn't this picture recall to your mind the beautiful lines of Longfellow's tribute to Madison? • “Fair lakes, serene and full of light. Fair town, arrayed in robes of white. How visionary ye appear 1 All like a floating landscape seems. In cloud-land or the land of dreams. Bathed in a golden atmosphere.” Why say more, my friend, about the completeness of our citv? It is not necessary'. Already the skies are becoming red and purple with the setting of the sun. Come, let us be on our way. Russell Coster Page Ninety-four LOCALS fcmCTHOMpaOM.

Central has had aud” programs; but never, until this year, have the departments of the school presented programs individually. The music department gives a program on an average of twice a month, during which it features the band, the orchestra, or the boys’ or girls’ glee clubs. Special auditorium programs are often presented by the department to celebrate the birthdays of famous musicians. Many very l eautiful duets, trios, and ciuartettes from this department have been found to be appreciated immensely by the students. The art department has given us several interesting programs illustrating the fundamental principles of art. We have been favored from time to time with talks on subjects relating to art by Mr. Dudley Crafts Watson of the Chicago Art Institute. His talks are so interesting, seasoned as they are with the type of humor Mr. Watson alone can produce, that he is welcomed with enthusiasm wherever he goes. The mathematics, biology, public speaking, and chemistry classes have each presented a program during the year. The athletic department also presents auditorium pep meetings during the loot-ball anil basketball seasons, sometimes as often as twice a week. Leading members of the M” club usually preside during these meetings. Outside speakers constitute a great part of these programs. Often men from the University of Wisconsin talk on special occasions. Among these are Prof. Pitman B. Potter, Jim’’ Brader. a graduate of both Central anil the University, anil Doyle Harmon. It is the aim of the departments to put on better and more enjoyable programs on subjects which are of the greatest interest to the rest of the school. Page Ninety-five ROYS' COOKING The boys' cooking class is a new feature at Central. Thirty-four bovs are now taking the course which consists of learning to prepare plain fundamental foods. The main purpose of the course is to teach hoys now to make the proper selection of their food. In connection with this they are taught table etiquette anti how to plan a well-balanced meal. The men on our faculty were honored by being the guests at the first dinner given by this class. In the spring, camp cooking is taught. The boys take along equipment and prepare their meals outdoors. In the fall the two classes in girls' cooking study the canning of fruits and vegetables. Household management is studied next, wherein kitchen and dining-room equipment and plans are discussed. After this, breakfasts are prepared. Christmas lessons consisting of making cookies and candies follow. Luncheons and dinners are made and served. The class is divided into groups for this work, and one group serves another. Sometimes luncheons are made for those in the class who are underweight or overweight' Dinners are given for the parents. Besides the cooking, the cost of food is studied, and budgets are kept. GIRLS' COOKING Page Ninety-six CHEMISTRY The chemistrv class shown here is engaged in conducting various experiments in Central’s chemistrv laboratory. Laboratory periods are conducted two days each week and are two periods in length. The other three days classes meet in regular classroom sessions of only one period. A laboratory fee is charged each member enrolled in chemistry classes. At the end of the semester the price of apparatus broken bv him is subtracted from his fee and the remainder returned. It is interesting to know that two members of the class recently constructed a nickel plating outfit which operated with great success. Culturally, biology acquaints one with the interesting habits, structures, and functions of plants and animals. Not only is it concerned with forms large enough to be seen with the naked eye, but also with the myriads of microscopic organisms. Economically, it deals with the production and the preservation of fowl and clothing, with hygiene and the saving of life. It serves as a foundation lor many professional studies. It develops an appreciation of nature. Its approach to its subject matter is scientific, for through the observation of tacts, it draws its conclusions anti banishes many superstitions and fears. BIOLOGY Page Ninety-seven IN THE MAIN CORRIDOR One of the most noteworthy annual projects of the Girls' Club is the awarding of a one hundred dollar scholarship to a deserving girl to aid her in obtaining a higher education. She is chosen on the basis of merit. This is one of the highest honors which Central bestows on a student, and only a girl of a line character can be the recipient of such an honor. To raise money for the scholarship hind and the loan fund, the club annually conducts a service shop sale. Materials sold are brought in by the entire student body. Members of the club also solicit from merchants who often donate left-over stock. This year a new money making project was tried, the sale of Christmas cards, which netted a profit of a little over one hundred dollars. Pupils and teachers co-operated in making the sale a success. The cards were designed by students in the art department under the supervision of Miss White, and (in hist mas C.ahd Sale printed in the school print shop under the direction of Mr. Bergncr, and sold by members of the Girls' Club. Central's new lighting system was installed last summer. There are seven two hundred watt power lights in each room. In each corridor there are fourteen one hundred fifty watt lights besides a number of sixty watt red exit lights. New stage lighting equipped with a large switchboard and dimmers has also been added. This equipment enables a variety of effects to be obtained on the stage. The cost of re-wiring anil new lixtures was over eight thousand six hundred dollars. From September to February inclusive, the electric bill for 1925-6 was over eleven hundred forty dollars, and for 1926-7, for the same period, was over nineteen hundred dollars. The most electricity was used in the month of January in both years. The cost for January alone in 1926 was two hundred ten dollars, and for the same month in 1927 was three hundred thirty six dollars. The cost of operating the new lighting system may seem enormous to the tax payer, but it is a great saving on the eye sight of Central’s students. New Lights Page Ninety-eight GENERAL ART In the selection of pictures for Central, the two greatest art periods ol the world; namely, the Greek in the tilth century B. C., am 1 the Italian Renaissance period in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, have been chosen. A number of etchings by Piranesi have been added, both because ol their beauty and because they give us a good idea of the structure of ancient buildings. In the former library room, which is now Room 209, bang three Arundel prints. I he Arundel Society was formed in 1849 by a comparatively small group ot art lovers, who wished to preserve some copies ol the beautiful Italian frescoes which were crumbling away. I he society sent artists into Italy, who made accurate water-color copies of the frescoes, which were afterwards reproduced through a certain lithographic process. Many portraits by Holbein, Velasquez, and other modern painters, have been chosen because of their line art value. Photographs of Greek statuary and Italian pictures were 1 he Concert taken by Anderson in Rome, while those ol the more modern subjects were made by Braun and Clement in Paris. The five views of points of interest in England are enlargements, specially made by I laufstaengel in London. The etchings can be found very useful in the study of art, bv comparing them with the earlier impressions in Room 204. and the later ones in Rooms 202 and 218. The live English etchings are to be iound on one panel in Room 117. In the auditorium are to be found two large urns ol ancient and artistic design. The auditorium is also adorned with the busts of two of our national patriots, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. The picture in the upper right hand corner is The Concert, by Gerard Ferburgh, a Dutch artist of the seventeenth century. The Madonna, by Raphael, the famous Italian painter of the Renaissance period, is the lower photograph. Both ol these paintings hang in Room 212 on the front wall, and are reproduced in vivid and beautiful color combination. With this collection as a beginning, it is hoped Central may improve the number and value ol her paintings, making the collection representative of the finest and best of the world’s art. t The Madonna Page Ninety-nine MANUAL ARTS Mr. Fuller's manual art’s class has made many projects this year. Among the most deserving of mention are a walnut chiffonier made by Edward Neuman and an oak writing desk made by Fret! Uphoff. A number of gate-leg tables, sewing cabinets, ami cedar chests have also been made. This class constructed the stage for the Christmas plav, The Nativity,” which was given at the capitol last winter, as well as the stage furnishings for Eager Heart,” given at Central at the same time. A view of the work room used by the class is shown above. Last spring the physics department added an Evans Practical Demonstrator Outfit to its equipment. It consists of a motor, which is operated by the electric light current, and a dynamo, to which the motor is belted. The dynamo is used to demonstrate the production of direct and alternating current. The dynamo can also be taken completely apart to show how it is made, thus making it useful for demonstrating motor construction. Many extra parts are included, by which almost any electrical experiment can be made. The paramount use of the apparatus is to explain more realistically the principles of electricity. PHYSICS Page One Hundred ENGLISH The chief aim of the English course is to train students to use English more skillfully and to cultivate their tastes in reading. Besides learning the rules of grammar, punctuation, and spelling, oral topics are given in all classes. Teachers have found that giving oral topics helps the students in their recitations, and gives them more confidence and ease when appearing before large audiences. Each student has an opportunity to give a topic about once a month. One of the most important phases of the course is acquainting the students with the world’s best writers and developing their reading interests. The main purpose of history is to study the world about us. When we understand, we become interested and also more tolerant. In the American historv course, one day each week is set aside for getting information on current events. Each student keeps a clipping note-book in which not only subject matter, but also organization, deftness in arranging material, and neatness count. Much emphasis is put on daily discussions which are often informal debates. Students are required to read a certain amount in other texts and source material and to make maps and diagrams. HISTORY Page One Hundred ami One CAKKTKRIA The picture above is that of the cafeteria used by Central’s students. li is owned and managed by the Vocational School, but it is patronized jointly by both schools. It is managed by Miss Earlle, the home economics teacher. The average number of patrons is about one hundred fifty each day. The cafeteria is not run for profit; in fact much of the necessary food is sold below cost. All the profit is derived from the deserts and other food luxuries. This is done so that pupils can get a healthful meal at a low price. I he average net profit is twenty-five dollars a month. 1 his money is used to purchase the more expensive equipment. Two cooks, as well as twelve students, are employed at different hours of the day. A popular resort during study periods is the school library. This is operated as a branch division of the city library, and is under its supervision. 1 he most notable addition to the library this year is a Keystone lantern slide set. consisting of six hundred engraved plates, which is used for illustrating work in all departments. Another addition is a ten volume set of encyclopedias called The Book of Rural Idle.’ LIBRARY Page One Hundred and Two MIRROK I)ISTRI UUTION In each session room there is a Mirror representative who, each semester, helps conduct the subscription campaign under the supervision of the business stall'. When the Mirror, Central s bi-monthly newspaper, is published, the business managers get the papers from the printer and divide them into piles corresponding to the various session rooms. The representatives take them to their respective session rooms, giving them to subscribers, and selling as many single copies as possible. All extras are returned anti checked. Usually from sixteen to twenty dollars are made on single copies at each edition. The day the Tychoberahn comes out is one of the most gala events. The halls are filled with enthusiastic crowds of Centralites, eager to have their iriends sign their “Tvs.’ And why shouldn't they be proud of them! Last year our annual lacked only twenty points ol being rated as an all-American annual in the C. I. P. A. Contest. It was awarded nine hundred ten points out of a possible one thousand for the editorial sections, and a perfect score for the business department, bringing the total to one thousand ten points. The stafl ’s aim is to make a bigger and better “Ty each year. TY DISTRIBUTION Page One Hundred and Three 1 he pottery displayed in the lower corridor often evokes curiosity as to how it is made. The process is interesting and not difficult. Pottery is formed from refined clay. 1 he pieces made by hand are built up with casts of clay. A templet of cardboard or tin is used to keep the piece in shape. There are two firings: in the biscuit kiln where pieces are fired lor the first time, and in the ghost kiln where glazed pieces are placed. I he most interesting and thrilling moment to pottery students is when the pieces are drawn from the kiln. There are two sewing classes, the 9A and 10A. In the 9A work the girls studied their wardrobes. Each girl decided what she needed for spring and then made the garments, thereby reducing the cost of the wardrobe. Booklets showing different types of cloth were made, and budgets of clothes were kept. The 10A class studied interior decoration. Booklets were made showing good and poor styles of decoration. Lamp shades and dresser-scarfs were made, and mats woven. For the rest of the semester the class made blouses, silk dresses, and costumes for the play, “Little Women.” SEWING Page One Hundred and Four ROYS GYMNASIUM The boys' gymnasium has a new lighting system this year which greatly improves the illumination. The increase in light is about fifty per cent of what it was before. A new weighing and measuring apparatus has been added, and the popular glass backboards have been installed. The glass is said to make the ball rebound more accurately than wood. Assistant Coach Koskey's class shown above is doing calisthenic exercises. Other phases of the work are marching, various games, and the fundamentals of football, basketball. and track. Efficiency tests are given on the last four sports. The main purpose of girls' gymnastics is to promote good health and sportsmanship. Each girl has two periods of gym a week. The 9B gym consists of marching, exercises, games, and dancing. The 9A class has one period of sports anti one of dancing. The sophomores have their choice of advanced gvm, folk dancing, or sports. The sports classes have volleyball, basketball, soccer, baseball, anil indoor baseball during the respective quarters. The juniors and seniors are not required to take gym, but may take tennis or interpretive dancing. All girls have an opportunity to earn athletic honors. GIRLS GYMNASIUM Page One Hundred and Five FRENCH One hundred seventy-four students take French. The two year course teaches only the rudiments, so there is little opportunity to read French literature. The four year course is complete. The first year pronunciation, common idioms, and the basic principles of grammar are learned. The second year syntax, or grammar, and French history are studied, besides outside reading. Maps are made and each student chooses a project. The juniors study France and the provinces, grammar, anti the works of classic authors. The last year is a literary course in which books bv important authors are read. The geography course is two semesters in length. This subject is included among the sciences, anti consists ol the study of the rocks anti minerals which form the earth's crust, especially those which are of most importance to man industriously. The weather, physical features, and climates of different countries are studied, as well as the reading of maps, physical, political, and topographical. Glacial geography is taught, with special emphasis on the effects ol glaciers on the contour of Wisconsin. The influence of geography on history and the development of industries in the United States is also traced. GEOGRAPHY Page One Hundred and Six The enrollment in the mathematics department is seven hundred twenty-two students. Two years of mathematics are required, and after that it may he elected. 1 nc freshmen study algebra, ami the sophomores take plane geometry. I he 1 IB s learn advanced algelira, and the 11 A s take solid geometry. The 12B’s take college algebra, and the 12A’s learn trigonometry. With these studies in high school a student can advance immediately into sophomore mathematics at the University. Anyone who plans to lake an engineering course in college must take at least three years of mathematics and should take four. There are about two hundred students enrolled in the typing classes at Central. All beginners in typing learn on the Underwood anti are required to use the Royal, L. C. Smith, and Remington before they finish the course. The first months in typing are spent in learning the keyboard and learning the “Touch System. The beginners alwavs have a paper over the keyboard with a large chart on the blackboard as a guide. The 12A students in typing have an opportunity to win an award on each make of typewriter. Bronze, silver, and gold pins are awarded on the basis of accuracy anti speed. TYPING Page One Hundred and Seven The social committee takes charge of the mat” dances given monthly at Central. The sophomores, juniors, and seniors on this committee are chosen hv their respective classes; and Mrs. Cowles, the chairman, selects the freshmen. The new feature ol having an outside orchestra in place of the school's has been tried this year. Fifteen cents admission is charged. Usually about one hundred fifty students attend. The Freshman-Sophomore party is given annually for the new pupils. About one hundred fifty students attended the party, which was held February 21. An outside orchestra piaved, with dancing and stunts as the main features. Among the stunts were a suit case relay, a circle dance, and a march. John Sammis gave the welcome, anil Ruth Evans the response. Ice cream sandwiches were served. fhe Junior-Senior W ashington Party was held in the gymnasium on Friday evening, February 18. It was attended by about one hundred twenty juniors anil seniors. A rather unique program consisting of a peanut race, an alarm clock stunt, and a grand march took place. Between the games there was punch to drink, while the remainder of the evening was spent in dancing. JUNIOR-SENIOR WASHINGTON PARTY One Hundred and Eight GIRLS' FROLIC Various costumes representing many nations were worn bv those who attended the Irolic on Friday evening, April 29. 'Phis frolic is given annually by Girls’ Club for all girls of the school, and usually proves to be the peppiest party of the year. The major part of the evening was spent in dancing, but a program consisting of stunts which were given by each class, proved to be unusually clever and entertaining. And, of course, there were refreshments. At 10:30. after three hours of fun making, one of the livliest parties of the year was at an end. On the eve of graduation, Friday, January 28. the midyear graduates had their last high school party at Central. The gym was decorated in green and white, the class colors. Stunts, games, and dancing were the main features of the evening. Refreshments were served by the mothers in the cafeteria, and during the lunch everyone joined in the songs which had been composed especially for this occasion. Later in the evening a shadow play, The Oyster Man, was given. The party was a delightful success, anil since the class numl ered only seventy, the group was very congenial.

But that summary does not include the lighting spirit of the team, the triumph for Coach Johnson, and the whole-hearted backing of the student body. Before going into the details ol this successlul season, it might be well to consider the records of Coach Johnson’s teams for the past live years. During that time, with the exception of 1922. no Central football team has ever lost more than two games in one season, and in those years 26 games were won, 7 lost, and 5 tied. In 1924 no defeats were recorded. No Central team coached by Mr. Johnson has ever been beaten by more than one touchdown. This is an excellent record when one considers the caliber of competition furnished bv the various members of the W. I. A. A., of which Central's principal, Mr. Barnes, is chairman. In the Big Six Conference Central has placed second once and first once in the two years of its existence. Central has never lost to a city rival, beating both Hast Side and Wisconsin High four times each. Quite a record! But coming back to the present season, it was found that only live lettermen were returning—Nelson, quarterback; O’Connell, end; Krueger, center; and Dexter and Schmitz, tackles. But Coach Johnson built a line that was considered the best in the Big Six. and the backfield developed into a powerful, deceptive, scoring machine. V. G. Barnes W. I. A. A.

Central scored in the second quarter on a Ferris-to-Nelson pass combination and Nelson kicked.goal; they counted again in the third quarter when Ferris carried the ball over from the 8-vard line after going forty yards in two plays. Central’s third touch down came on passes when Usilton caught one and travelled 35 yards for a touch down. Pip Nelson scored the last points when he plunged over from the 5-yard line.

T TS7? “Bud” Cuts Back GAME BY GAME SUMMARY Central triumphed over Richland Center 12-0 in the lirst game of the 1026 season. Central scored early in the second quarter on a pass, Ferris-to-Slaab, and again in the third quarter when Nelson went over from the 25yard line on a quarter-back sneak. Beloit came to Madison the next Saturday with a team that expected to trim the Orange anti Black. But Central’s powerful line held Beloit’s offense helpless, and Central’s backs completed several long passes and ripped off many good gains. A pass, Staab-to-Nelson, resulted in the first touch down early in the second quarter, and in the third quarter Staab scored from the 8-vard line. In the fourth quarter Staab threw a long pass to O'Connell who crossed the acal line untouched. 'I he score stood 21-0 when Freaendahl drop kicked from the 35-yard line to give Beloit 3 points. On the following Saturday Central travelled to Sheboygan and there was forced to be content with a 7-7 tie. Central scored first when Williams plunged over from the 5-yard line in the second quarter. In the third quarter Sheboygan scored on a cross buck and kicked goal, tying the score. Central played well but Sheboygan kept in the running with several long runs and intercepted passes. The Central avalanche next invaded Racine and departed from the Belle City w ith a 25-0 victory under their belts. Staab made a 35-vard place kick against a strong wind for the only score of the first half. But in the third quarter Usilton made a touch down when he picked up a fumble and travelled 55yards. A few minutes later Racine’s pass on their own 10-yard line was blocked by Schmitz, and it fell into Donovan’s arms, who sped the 10 yards for a touch down. In the fourth quarter Usilton scored again. A Line Plunge Page One Hundred and Eighteen An 0 1 Tackle Smash GAME BY GAME SUMMARY On November b. a fighting Central team met a bunch of Big Red Giants from Kenosha and trimmed them 13-6. In the first quarter Ferris’s pass to Usilton resulted in six points when Bud” eluded the entire Kenosha backfield in a 15-vard dash to the goal. In the same quarter Kenosha blocked a Central punt on the 5-yard line, and Pacetti went over for the touch down. Both attempts at goal were missed. With two minutes left to play, Ferris again passed to Usilton who scored the second Central touchdown Nelson kicked goal and the game ended 15-6. 1 his game atoned for last year’s defeat, by which Kenosha won the Big Six Championship. The Janesville game was played in a sea of mud which made it impossible to run the ends, or even to cut back. Janesville scored about a minute before the half ended when they recovered a Central fumble on the 5-vard line. After three plays Trevorrah fumbled, but Litney. Janesville center, fell on the ball for the only score of the game. Central constantly threatened the Janesville goal in the second half, but they were unable to score. On Friday, November 19. Central met Wisconsin High in its first city series game. 1 lie game was played at Breese Stevens Field in about eighteen inches of snow. The field was slippery to run on, cold, damp, and made kicking and passing exceedingly difficult. Central completed only one pass and registered three first downs w hile Wisconsin High registered two first downs against the Central second team, which starlet! the game. With four minutes left to play, Staab was sent into the game. He place kicked a goal from a snow pile and gave Central a 3-0 victory. r Central Completes a Pass Page One Hundred and Nineteen INDIVIDUAL FOOTBALL SUMMARIES Mark Schmitz, facklc— Markv was one of the mainstays of the great Central line throughout the entire year. No one can keep Markv out of a play when he wants to gel into it. He is always fighting and is always on the hot-tom of every pile. He and Dex” made as strong a pair of tackles as could he found in the Big Six,” anil both will be missing when the gquad assembles next year. Stanley Dexter, tackle- In his third year as a Central lineman Dex” proved that there was no one better. He seems to be everywhere, and few teams make yardage over him. His graduation will leave a big opening for Coach Johnson to fill in 1927. Aggressive on offense, a bulwark on defense, clean, sportsmanlike, he will be missed after three years of service. Albert Fosdick, end— Fuzzy seldom misses a tackle, and he tackles hard and clean. He is a good pass receiver because he can get up in the air. and he is fast on going down under punts. We expect him to play next year, fortunately, for he will be the only experienced end besides O’Connel to return to the fold. William Donovan, end- ‘‘Bill is one of those quiet, hard-working ends who make touch downs, tackles, and grab passes, and no one knows anything about it. Other teams gained little ground at left end. Although not a heavy man, “Bill” made his weight count and opponents always knew of his presence. He will leave us in June. James McClain, guard— Jimmy is a powerful guard who knows how to open big, wide holes for the backs. On defense he knows what to do at all times and is seldom kept out of a play. Jimmy” will not be able to play in 1927, and consequently, will leave one more gap in the line. Leonard Nelson, manager—Not only is a manager supposed to look out for the equipment of the team, but it is also necessary that he bolster the morale of the players. His wisecracks and beaming countenance, coupled with his dependability, enabled Len to fulfil both these requirements. I le is another mainstay who will be missed next fall when the fellows start yelling where’s my shoe, where's a ball etc. Page One Hundred and Twenty INDIVIDUAL FOOTBALL SUMMARIES Parnell Nelson, quarter-back— Pip’s football playing speaks louder than words will ever be able to. Let it be enough to say that he is one of the brainest quarter-backs that Central has ever had, and one of the best all around football players. His ability, coupled with his experience after three years service, will make “Pip an invaluable aid to the team next year. If he makes his letter again next fall, he will be one of the few four year football men at Central. Lincoln Usilton, half-back—“Bud Usilton is Central’s freshman flash. He scored five touch downs for Central this year and led the Big Six in scoring. Every Central student hopes to see Bud play as well the next three years as he did this. “Bud is only a freshman; think what he will be as a senior after four years of coaching, practice, training, experience, and growth. William Tormey, end After three years of hard work. “Bill came through this year and played a good, steady brand of football. Behind that smile of Bill’s is a lot of grit and determination. He has played his last year, sorry to say, and leaves Coach Johnson with only two second ends for the 1927 team. William Conway, guard— Bill never quits. lie is always on his toes, and he fights till the final gun. Bill is the type of guard who takes two or three of his opponents out of the way at one time, and he drives through on defense. He has considerable bulk, but he knows how to handle it to the discomfort of the opposing guard. “Bill also goes this year. Harry Nichol, full-back— Kipke was on the squad for three years, and that means three years of plugging. He is a hard plunging full-back and a good man on defense. His graduation will leave still another empty place in 1927 and will leave the backfield with only three lettermen as a nucleus. Page One Hundred and Twenty-one INDIVIDUAL FOOTBALL SUMMARIES David O'Connell, eml Dave is a lighter from the word go. He may le hurt and scarcely able to stand, hut he still makes tackles and catches passes. lie will he with us next year and should rank as one of Central’s greatest ends. Although he is rather light, he overcomes this h andicap by his tackling, pass-catching ability, experience. and gameness. Fkei) Staab, half-lack— Fritz is aclever runner and an accurate passer, and his toe accounted for two field goals and seven points after touch downs this year. He has two more years and should developintoa real half-back. He is the only backfield veteran liesides Nelson anti Usilton to return next season and will surely he welcomed ii he continues to play the brand of hall he lias displayed. Francis McGuire, half-back—“Mac played good hall all season. He showed up well on offense, especially in his punting. He was the best punter on the squad this year, and his kicking was an important factor in the 13-6 win over Kenosha. his ability will most certainly he missed next fall as he and Schmitz did almost all the punting. He is one of the quintet of backfield men to get his diploma in fun . Martin Fours, guard—In his first year Marty learned how to play the guard position as few play it. l ime and again he broke through and tossed opposing hacks for losses. I le was responsible for many gains on his side of the line. He is rather small as yet, but is as solid and immovable as the proverbial brick wall. Marty has another year in which to grow and improve. Luverne LausCHE, center— Lausche is certainly versatile as a lineman. He played the entire Beloit game at center, and then played both guard and end positions in other games. He is fast and a good man at watching passes, besides being a demon on offense. He’s going to be a handy man to have around next year with so many gaps to fill in the line. Page One Hundred and Twenty-two INDIVIDUAL FOOTBALL SUMMARIES Kenneth Krueger, center—A terror in a football suit is the correct phrase to describe “Moose” Krueger. Central’s giant center. He is a wonder on offense, an accurate passer, and knows how to play his position. The mastodonic youth is the biggest man on the squad, and he is generally considered all-Big-Six and all-citv material. His return next year will gladden the hearts of coaches and rooters alike. Tom XoviCK, tackle Pom is a hard-working tackle who makes plenty of trouble and work for any one playing against him. He often breaks through and smears opposing players for losses and is particularly hard to box out of a play. Offensively he is just as strong, anti opens good-sized holes for the backs. Sail to relate. Tom will be missing next fall. Tom Williams, full-back- -After four years of steadv work “Tommy” made his letter in his senior year. Think of four years of hard work on the gridiron, and then you will know what kind of a fellow Tom is. fie was Central's mainstay on defense this year. Tommy’s plugging, hard work, and consistent improvement should serve as an inspiration to future Central gridiron stars. Harold Ferris, half-back—During the past season Harold Ferris showed that he is one of the best passers in Central’s football history. In games this year he five times threw long, accurate passes that resulted in touch downs and victory. Not only could he throw a football, but he could also advance it by the age-old custom of carrying it. John Mai.KC, half-back In his first year out Johnny” came through with a bang. I Ie was the fastest man on the squad, and he used his speed to good advantage, especially in the Beloit and F.ast Side games. Though it was his first year, it was also his last, anti as far as athletics is concerned. everyone will be sorry to see “Johnny” get his diploma. Page One Hundred anti Twenty-three Basketball Top Row: Coach Johnson. Sandell, Aascn, Schmitt, Kncchtgcs. Novick, Phillips, Berg, Kacscr Bottom Row: Manager Hawley, Donovan, Fosdick. Captain Schmitz, Staab, Nelson, L'silton, Manager Nichol BASKETBALL SUMMARY Central's 1926-27 quintet not onlv won the Big Six and City Championships, but also went on and took the Whitewater Tournament and second place in the state finals, after dropping the most heartbreaking, maddening game ever imposed on a team in the championship finals. But after all, one game cannot spoil a season; and when one considers that Central won sixteen out of nineteen games, fifteen in a row, was admittedly the best coached team in both the Whitewater and state tournaments, placed four men on various all-state teams, and was undoubtedly one of the greatest teams in the history of the school, he cannot help but be proud of that bunch of fighting Centralites. This vear's team started with brilliant prospects and lived up to expectations. Donovan, Stabb, Fosdick, Nelson, and Schmitz were former lettermen and were the mainstays of the team during the entire season. Novick, Usilton, Sandell and Kaeser made up the rest of the squad ;other men who will be back next year are Knechtges, Schwoegler, anti Schmitt. The season started with a 19-12 victory over Beloit. Ragged work on the part of the offense held the score down but the close defensive play, which kept Drager and Fredendahl bottled up, was encouraging. The next game turned out to bean unexpected jolt in the form of a 21-12 lacing from the Big Reds of Kenosha. The less said about the next game the better, for Central seemed unable to get out of their slump and lost 14-15 to East Side in a rough game. Then the team began to play real basketball and started a fifteen game winning streak. Racine, tail-ender in the Conference, was toppled in easy fashion 21-2 with Fosdick making 12 points. Then the longed for day arrived when Central broke Wisconsin High’s five year jinx and beat them 17-15. The second team let the “Preps run up an 8-3 score, but the regulars came in and speedily changed this, though not without a struggle. Page One Hundred and Twentv-four Basketball The Racine Game BASKETBALL SUMMARY I n the next game against Janesville Central's real strength became apparent; though behind 8-4 at the half, a brilliant passing attack brought a 25-16 victory. Though Beloit ran up an 11-4 count at the end ol the hall, the regulars managed to eke out a 15-14 win when Schmitz slipped in a pot shot in the last minute of play. On the next night came sweet re-vengeon Kenosha when thehithertoundeleated league-leaders were sent home mourninga52-18 loss. In a last contest Racine was easily set down 30-17. Once more Central had to come from behind to take the next game from Janesville 26-24. T hough behind at the half, 13-9, a third quarter rally gave Central the lead, 22-17, and they clung to it through a bitterly contested fourth quarter. Wisconsin I ligh was again defeated. 15-11, in a game that was featured by the ragged playing of both teams. As in the football season, on the last game of the regular schedule, with East Side hinged the Big Six and City Championships; and once more Central came through with a decisive victory. 16-8, East scoring only one basket. A comparatively easy time was had at Whitewater in the District Tournament. The opener with Whitewater Normal High was fairly evenly fought at first, but Central scored 18 points in the last period to run the final count to 31-15. For the third time Janesville was defeated, this time 27-18, the score at the end of the first quarter l eing Central 14, Janesville 1. In the championship game Central played a brillliant offensive and defensive game to take the district title from Stoughton, 59-12. Fosdick, Schmitz, Nelson, and Staab were all-tournament selections. During the state tournament three of the gamest fourth quarter rallies ever seen on the university court brought our team through to the finals; but the strain finally told, andJEau Claire copped the state championship. It happened that Central drew Wisconsin High for its first opponent. Although behind 15-12 at the beginning of the final stanza, the Orange and Black came out on top once more. 25-18. After seeing a big lead dwindle to a mere 15-13 score. Central stepped out on Wausau, and took the game, 25-16, in the last quarter again. (Continued on page 128) Page One Hundred and Twenty-five INDIVIDUAL BASKETBALL SUMMARIES Mark Schmitz-—Captain Schmitz was one of the best offensive guards in the state and was generally recognized as all-state material. His work in taking rebounds and bringing the ball down the floor was nothing short of marvelous, particularly in the state tournament. The graduation of Schmitz and Nelson will mark the passing of as fine a pair of guards as ever represented Central. Fred Staab- Fritz” took a long time to get going but finally showed his real worth. His offensive play featured in the Whitewater Tournament, anil his wonderful all-around play was mighty instrumental in Central’s success in the state meet. He is another foward from whom much can be expected next year and the first hall of the year following. Parnell Nelson- Pip, for the first half of the season, did not take much part in the scoring. Then he opened up and was almost as strong offensively as defensively; the combined result was enough to win a place on the all-state five and a position as one of Central s greatest guards. Though he graduates in February, his name anil deeds will not soon be forgotten. ALBERT FosdiCK- Give Fosdick a little height and there would be no center in the state to match him. His inability to get tip-offs was the only thing that kept him from being the unanimous choice for all-state center. Although always closely watched, Fuzzy’s” shooting, passing, dribbling, and handling of the ball featured in almost every game. Central should see some sensational basketball playing from Fuzzy next year. William Donovan— Bill” was the type of man needed to round out Central’s wonderful quintet. Always a fighter, always a dependable passer, always a team-work man,” yet Bill supplied many points anil thrills with his sensational hook shots, in which he specialized. Of the eight men entered in the state meet, Donovan is the only one besides Schmitz to graduate in June. Max NoviCK—Every team usually has its big little man. Max was Central’s. Though but a 125-pounder, he developed into one of the best passers and shots on the squad in his first year out and dove-tailed nicely with the rest of the team. When he takes on weight, which he undoubtedly will, he should make a real basketball player in his two remaining years. Page One Hundred and Twenty-six Hi TYCHOBfPV INDIVIDUAL BASKETBALL SUMMARIES Lincoln Usilton Bud” Usilton, star freshman athlete, seems destined to take the place ol Pip” Nelson, as Central's all- around athlete. In his freshman year he won his letter in football and then made another one by his work in basketball. In order to make this years team. Bud had to show real ability and in his remaining three years should develop into a brilliant star. Earnest Kakskr Another newcomer who won his letter was Ernie” Kaeser. He was a very dependable man to have around and good use was made of him the last half of the season. Cool, reliable, a deadly shot under the basket, andasteady passer, “Ernie givespromise of developing into a wonderful team-plav man. lie will also undoubtedly take on weight anil height in his remaining three years here. Arthur Sandkll—In his second year on the squad, as a senior, “Art” came through to win his letter. A steady, dependable guard, he made a valuable understudy to Schmitz, and Nelson. Though not flashv, his teammates were always able to rely on him, and it is regrettable that he does not come back next year as he is the third experienced guard to graduate. Edward KNECHTGES— Eddie” is another one of those hard-working, constantly-improving players who is so instrumental in the ultimate success of a team. He was just short of the number of games required lor a letter, but “Eddie’s” work is appreciated by the rest ol the squad, by the coaches, anti by the school. He plays a cool, heady, consistent game at forward or center. Russell Schmitt— Russ,” the elongated pivot man, who has made his appearance quite often in the last two years, is one who will I� e welcomed back next year because of his size anil experience. He did not play in enough games this season to win his letter, but Judging from his hard work and constant improvement, he looks like a first string man for next season. William Hawley—“Bill” and Harry Nichols were general handy men and complaint receivers; in other words, they were managers. II anyone thinks a manager has a snap, he should take the responsibility for hundreds of dollars worth of equipment and should attempt to cultivate the knack of receiving all complaints with a smile as “Bill” anil Harry had to do.

The lead was never relinquished; hut by spurting. La Crosse kept the game a toss-up until the last few minutes. But the strain finally told, and in the last game of the year, Eau Claire met a team that was hut a shell of its real self. Time after time, the ball was brought down the floor only to be fumbled under the basket; time and again pot shots, dribble-in shots, short shots were missed; only 5 out of 12 free throws were made good and only 4 out of 90 field shots. Eau Claire grabbed an early 5-1 lead, but Central ran the score up to 7-5 for their only lead of the game. A heartbroken bunch of Centralite cagers gave all they had. which ordinarily would have been more than enough, but the ball simply would not drop through the net. No Central fan could ever be convinced that the better team won. A few words should be said in regard to a team that was a team and not a few mediocre players held together by one or two stars. That Central won its games by team-work is shown in the scoring records; Schmitz, Fosdick, Stabb, and Donovan were separated by Only 16 points in individual scoring. Statistics tell the story of the defense also:only twice did the other teams go above 18 points against Central. The average score was 25-16.

Kemp, Dunn, O’Connell, and the relay team were the onlv point scorers of the season outside ol the Hast Side dual meet. At Whitewater, Central, with a small entrv list, placed ninth. Kemp took second in the low hurdles and broad jump, and the half mile relay team also copped a second place. In the West Relays, Kemp garnered a second in the high jump for Central’s only points. Although Kemp won the high and low hurdles anil the high jump, ami O’Connell took first in the pole vault, Central's dash men failed to do as well as expected, and Hast Side won the dual meet, 64-53. In the Southern Wisconsin track meet Central scored 18 points anti won fourth place.

Though the 1926 season was not highly successful, it must be remembered that Central had no performers in the weight events. 1926 Records Whitewater Meet at Whitewater—9 points Mid-West Relays at Madison—5 points Hast Side Dual Meet—53 points Southern Wisconsin Meet at Madison—18 points Big Six Meet at Beloit—23 points State Meet at Madison—8 points Tentative 1927 Schedule April 22—Central inter-class meet April 30—Mid-West Relays at Madison May 7—Whitewater meet at Whitewatei Marquette Relays at Milwaukee May 14—Big Six meet at Beloit May 21—Southern Wisconsin meet at Madison May 28—State meet at Madison Hast Side Dual Meet—date indefinite Page One Hundred anti Twenty-nine Lightweight Basketball Top Row: Kncchtgcs, Blankcnhcim, Billington.

At the end of the half. Central was out in front, 6-3. In the last half. Sweet, Kubista, and Osterfund all scored to put Central on the long end of a 12-6 score. Fairly successful from a won and lost standpoint, the lightweights were even more welcome from another viewpoint. Before their advent it had been the custom to let outside teams play the preliminary games for Big Six contests. But this year it has been possible to have a team representing our own school play these games and thus lend more spirit to them. The boys who have helped to make the first lightweight season successful were: Sweet. Billington, Kubista, Knechtges, Blankenheim, Culp. I lagan. Masino, Gjerde, Osterfund, and Younger.

Everyone who enrolls is given a physical examination to determine her fitness for the work. No girl is allowed then to participate in play or stunts for which she is unfit. Where there are defects or weaknesses, special effort is made to adjust the exercises to the girls’ individual needs. Those who have weak hearts are excused from taking gym. 1 he girls who are entered inti) this special class are those with crooked spines, those with one shoulder higher than the other, those with very weak muscles, those who have something wrong with their feet, those who are overweight, and those who have any physical defect which can he corrected by taking a special kind of gym work. Each girl is given a special type of work to do. A girl with a crooked spine is given certain exercises on bars and rings and also on the floor. If she is told to hang on the bars, she must hang on with the hand which the instructor told her to use. Some of the girls are instructed to carry their books on a certain side, to sleep on a harder mattress, or to sleep on a certain side. The hardest work for the instructor comes when an overweight girl is entered into the class. Some of these girls are eager to do as they arc told, while some say that they hate” to do those silly exercises. 1 hose girls who are given an opportunity to join this class are very lucky and should make the best of their opportunity. Some of the girls who are entered into this class are cured because of their hard, earnest work in doing what they are told. Most of the girls that are cured are those with crooked spines and shoulders and those with defective feet. 1 his is probably because they are the most eager to cure themselves. It takes a longer time to help an overweight girl than it does one of the others. This is partly due to the fact that it takes a longer time to reduce than it does to cure the other defects. This program is a very important part of the physical education. and has accomplished much good work which should be noticed by more people. Miss Baus and Miss Shepard, the physical education directors of the girls’ work, devote many extra hours to helpful work of this sort. Besides this they assist in the numerous dancing programs. This year the special health week in May was most beneficial to all girls. Page One Hundred and Thirtv-thrcc GIRLS’ CHAMPIONSHIP BASKETBALL TEAM 11B Top Row: Daniels. Homl crger, Christianson. Tandvig, Hoffman Bottom Row: Statz. Nathenson. Klcinhcinz Girls’ basketball is very different from that which the boys play. In the earlier days when girls first started to play basketball, they played the same game that the bovs did. Soon, however, people began to see that this exercise was too strenuous; so they devised different rules and made the game less strenuous. The girls have six players on a team and three courts. Many of the rules were changed which improved the game for the benefit of the girls. Although this game of girls’ basketball may not seem as exciting and interesting as that of boys’, nevertheless the girls who play it, enjoy the game very much and get a great deal of pleasure out of playing it. This enjoyment and pleasure was shown in this year's girls' class basketball tournament by the 1 IB’s. The first semester juniors were very faithful in turning out for the practices, and the harder the games were, the more they enjoyed them. Each girl on this team came to every practice, and each one was anxious to play every minute of a game. The eagerness to learn how to play fairly and squarely did much to help these girls win their way to victory. The MB's deserved the championship, and they also well deserved the numerals which each member of the team received.

Ucisc, Page This year the volleyball tournament probably stirred up more interest than it ever has in the history of girls’ athletics at Central High School. '1 his was the first sport of the season indulged in bv the girls. It was very eagerly supported, and many derived a great deal of fun and enjoyment from playing the game. The game does not require skill, but one can learn to be a good player only by hard practice. The girls soon found this out at the tryouts which began as soon as possible alter the summer vacation. The girls have class teams in volleyball, basketball, and baseball just as the boys have class basketball teams. After the teams are chosen, a tournament is held. 'I his year a change was made in the system of awarding numerals. Numerals are given to each member of a winning team in volleyball, basketball, baseball, or tennis. 1 his year the winners were the lOB’s. At the beginning of the tournament there was another team which many thought would win. but these people forgot to take into consideration the hard work, fair play, and quickness of the lOB’s. These Sophs not only played fair, but they were very sportsmanlike, a fact which was noticed by many. They well deserved the honor of first place and should be proud of their numerals. WE RE READY!

Sweet Bottom Row: Coughlin, Thompson, Cohen. Barry, Slightam, Wigonitz I his year the seniors had a little had luck in basket hall. Not many turned out for the tryouts, and this dampened their chances for winning the tournament more than anything else. Indeed, they had barely enough fora 12A team. The 12B's had enough for a team, but several members of the team were rather slight in stature, and this is a hindrance in girls’ basketball. Both of these teams were coached by Miss Bans. The girls who did turn out were faithful in their attendance to practice, and this helped them to play better. For their sportsmanship they certainly deserved laudation. The junior class has always had a large number of girls turn out for the tryouts. This enables them to have good teams. In each class there are two teams, an A and a B one, according to their classification in school. This year Miss Bans coached the 1 lA’s, and Miss Shepard coached the 11 B’s. Both the A’s and B’s had good teams. It is usually thought that the seniors should be the winners in the basketball tournament, but this year that idea was upset by the 11 B’s coming through to victory.} These girls show enjoyment in their clean playing and sportsmanship.

This was probably due to the fact that more girls turned out for the tryouts in the 10A class than did those in the 1 OH class. Moreover, the IOA’s played basketball last year while this is the first year that the lOB’s have played the game. As a whole the sophomore teams did as well as could Ik expected. 1 hey played fair, clean, square games anil fought to the finish. Lighting spirit always counts in athletics. Congratulations, Sophs, for your hard, earnest, and fair playing. This year a rather unexpected rival for the class basketball championship showed up in the freshmen. From the present outlook of the team is seems as if the other classes will have a hard time conquering these freshmen in the future. These girls certainly deserve the place of a tie for second place in the basketball tournament. Congratulations and good luck in the future, Freshies!

Mr. Barnes blew in as only he would and greeted the waiting line with, I'll be glad to do anything I can for you . Becoming weary of waiting in line, I wandered out and stood by the bulletin board. As there was no one there, I betook myself down to the library—ostensibly to get a book, but really to see if Pete Haley was in there, and what he was wearing. Pete wasn't there, but Sylvia Egan was. Since Mrs. Cardiff told me not to hesitate to talk it I had anything of benefit to impart to the ignorant mob, I dashed over to Bob O’Neill and Bill Helm and gave them their English assignment. Incidentally, Bob told me that he was not going to History Class next Monday because Miss Arnson said that they would finish the war, and his mother did not raise him to be a soldier. I don’t believe she raised you at all, said the delicate little Bill, you just naturally grewed.” Of course we all laughed, including Mrs. Cardiff with Mrs. Filson coming in on the chorus. I’ll treat you to a drink, said Bob, by way of interruption, if you’ll come up to the fountain. Bill and I were overcome by such generosity and hastened away to dampen our spirits.

We got to the fountain and drank and drank and drank, onlv to discover that the fountain was shut off. “I'll have to make this up to you, said Bob, chagrin marring his usual jubilant countenance. Taking some gum out of one of his pockets, he discovered that there wasn’t any there! We were mortified. To cover up this discrepancy, I complimented him on his individuality of dress. He blushed, anti so did I because I had never said anything like that before. Realizing that 1 had said enough, I went down to 104 to see Marsh North and Coreen Peterson working out their Latin together. Finding a fairly decent display of compatibility in that region.

Going along by 208 I noticed Micky Corcoran picking up scraps of paper dropped by less meticulous children than he. Needless to say, I did not stop him from displaying his school spirit. I have heard that it is well to use a personally signed slip in going to the library.

The author, Mary Bell, may be remembered for her extensive research in the culinary art of ancient Africa. 5 points. “The Murder of Time” As a surprise comes this unheralded and inexplicable mystery drama of pathos and passion. Its interest is chiefly dependent upon elusive and subtle inferences made by an unknown author, one Pete Haley, who, stranglv uses no nom de plume. This is easily worth the four points offered for its reading. “The Pausing” by Mary Whitaker of “Merry Men of Middleton” fame This embraces all the plebeian thrills of a scholar, reluctant to recite. Read it in any good library or in study halls. Six points. “The Conning Tower”, by Lois Hilton Tears aside the veil of failure and reduces the importance of passing; in the mind of the reader, by subordinating it to the joys of living an honest life in school. Number of copies limited. 2516 points. PSYCHOLOGY “The Charms of the Unconscious with Explanations,” by Dale Clapp To read this is to see life from a new angle. It embraces all the points on the psychology of indifference to study, and makes clear the reactions of quiz questions on the medulla oblongata. 77 points. “What is Intelligence?” by Professor Richard Corcoran, M.D., Ph.

Years of patient study and brilliant research have resulted in a great work, long awaited by mankind. 1 point. SCIENCE AND INVENTION “Strange Moths of the Arctic Circle”, by Thelma Haven Dr. Haven has recently published a treatise in five volumes which has met with instant success. No other student of flora and fauna has ever made a study of these insects. Dr. Haven is especially competent to write on this subject for she has lived “in the shadow of the North Pole” for twenty-five years. 2 points. “Time-Saving Devices”, by Helen Rott One cannot appreciate this extraordinary work until one has read it twice. Such inventions as automatic wrap removers and electric book openers are discussed. The author concludes with the thought that time is too precious to lose, and that something which would hold it from advancing should be invented.

And the temperature's twenty below? When the street-cars all stop running, And it’s twenty-eight past eight. And you drop your l ooks in a snow bank deep. And your soul is filled with hate; Then your nose turns blue, and vour ears turn red. And you fall and rise again. And both vour shoes are full of snow— Don't you love winter then? Alice Siggelko, '28 PENCIL PUN It won’t be long now,” said the girl as she went to the pencil sharpener with a nice, big pencil. LOVE HAS A WAY I have a little brother who's a freshman here at high. I've noticed for a few weeks he’s been as nice as pie. The other day I wondered what it was made him so gay. When a friend of mine suggested a solution. Here's the way. When I was all alone with him, I gently said, Oh, Bill, Come tell me just the truth; is it a Mary, Jane, or Phil? You can’t deny it, brother, aren't you caught in love's sweet spell?” He quickly turned to me and said, I’m surprised that you can't tell.” Garno Reynolds AN EPITAPH The meeting—it was sudden; The parting—it was sad; She gave up her sweet life. The only life she had. She lies sleeping, peacefully. Beneath the willows now. Which is always the case When a freigbt-train meets a cow.

I’ve been turned out of home; I can do what I please. But the snow is thick and I'm likely to freeze. And every now and then I just have to sneeze. People stop, and look, and stare.

But all the people say, who admire my hair, is “Poor Pussy!” Julia Wigonitz. THE ROYAL FOOTBALL GAME (With Apologies to Leigh Hunt) King Barnes, he was a hearty king, And loved a royal sport, And one day as his warriors fought, sat looking on the court. The nobles filled the benches, with the ladies in the stands,— And ’mongst them sat the great coach, who was a famous man. And truly 'twas a gallant thing to see that crowning show, Valor and love; and a king above; And the royal warriors below. Like lightning raced the warriors, with Bold gains through the line. With wallowing might and stifled roar. They ran around each other. Till all the stands gave cheers and yells. That echoed like great thunder. The mud and dirt from out the field came whizzing through the air; Said King Barnes then, Faith, fellowmen, they're playing hard but fair.” Virginia Hoebel, '27 r Try s'' r ' ' ’I ' v v TWtRt A WINTERY DAY WHEN WE BEAT WISCONSIN HIGH J 0 2 it HE 1937 laEi1 Page One Hundred and Fifty-five I The Hits with their original casts may he booked through our Central office.

The Kid Brother, starring Peter Haley If it were not for this young fellow's versatility, this play would fall short of fair. Mary Bell supporting Syncopating Sue, starring Susan Race You all know the abandon which this star puts into her self-expression. Good, with Russell Hibbard partaking of the laurels. Her Second Chance, starring Hubert Halliday Drop in to see this if you're waiting for the rain to stop. The Lily, starring Isabel Hatfield Admirably acted Costuming effective The White Sister, starring Lucille Frederickson A pitiful and touching tale portrayed by one experienced in that type of acting. Variety, starring Evelyn Tiedeman Something different in frothy affection The Silent Lover, starring Bob Allman A play on words. There is something inexplicably subtle about this boy's acting. Assisted by several ingenues The Campus Flirt, starring Lucille Dellinger Might be called “The Perfect Lady,” or “Story of a Lady who Refused to be Outdone by Football. The Strong Man, starring Bob Stephenson The story runs along at a merry gait with Stephenson keeping step with the swift plot. Doris Bush is outstanding as the co-star. The Reason Why, starring William Helm The theme trips and stumbles in its rush to the climax. Mr. Helm shows his ability to handle distracting ladies and to resist all for the sake of his education. Not for the children. It, starring Clara Huerth Presenting a really worth-while interpretation of the gay young thing Tramp, Tramp, Tramp, starring Bill Anderson Showing how to let everyone know who's coming. Wholesome amusement The Clinging Vine, featuring Katherine Sheldon Tiresome and trite plot, but cast, tolerable.

Admirably acted by these coming stars. “Corporal Kate” starring Catherine Smith Gives us just a slight idea of the versatility of the star's portrayals. “Stage Struck” Shows the passionate and vivid lady, Rosalie Gill, as we like her best. See it. “Fashions for Women” Gives Wendell Bareness an opportunity to revel in her forte. Bill Anderson and Dick Palmer interpret the parts of the critics admirably. “Good and Naughty” A flippant farce starring Henrietta Fitch.

Yes, here he conies out of 218, all dressed up in his little rompers. With his red shirt and verdant complexion he has a gay, Christmasy air. He is not yet accustomed to the affectionate jams in the lower corridor at 11:45 A. M. He stands on the steps outside feeling as if he'd had a Swedish massage. While sprinting to 202, he encounters the august and noble form of a haughty upperclassman such as Micky Corcoran or Ozzie Johnson. He murmurs, If only I could acquire the blase and inane expression like theirs, it would help a lot. Pondering thus, he suddenly rounds a corner and lands in the midst of a heap of girls draped over the radiator. A delicate blush, rivalling in hue Frank McKee’s new spring tie or Honey Stondall's lipstick, spreads over his face, neck, and ears. Immediately he walks back down half the stairs without even stopping to turn around. From this little incident, we gather that Kasper is bashful—yes, dear reader, bashful! And in C. H. S. three months already! And that isn't the tenth of it! He is actually afraid of the teachers! Well you know how we feel about it. Kasper always has his lessons—(don't laugh; it isn't supposed to be funny). If you want to find him before school, don't look for someone doing anasthetic dancing on the fire escapes or sliding down the bannisters as you would expect to find the members of the faculty, but go to his session room and there you will see him diligently studying. I have tried to give you a pencil sketch of dear little Kasper. But don’t misjudge the poor lad—he has been misguided and given false ideas—but it won't l e long now. These artistic little stars indicate the lapse of Kasper’s sophomore and junior vears. During this time Kasper has evolved from a freshman to a senior. The miraculous change in nim has been gradual but steady. It often happens. Do you hear those crashes which sound like an iron-hoofed pachydrem? Yes, that's Kasper with his soundless heels and delicate tread. Just as three years before, he rounds a corner and finds himself in the eternal heap of girls coyly reclining on the radiator. And TT I9D7 ins Page One Hundred and Sixtv-four TYCHOBERAMll Iffffl OH HENRY! (With Apologies to Tennyson) Fords to the right of us. Fords to the left of us. Fords 'round and under us— How they do rattle. Tires worn in the fray. Wrecked bodies they display, Engine half blown away— So they continue. Hundreds clang down the street. The things I hate to meet. It's true, I'd rather use niv feet— Than solve those puzzles. Arthur Beeken, '28. THE STORY OF KASPER OR THE EVOLUTION OF A CENTRALITE (Continued) does he step down to the ground floor without even excusing himself? These damsels, most sought-after belles in school, welcome him with open arms and fall on his neck (figuratively speaking). He converses charmingly with them about his new Lincoln, and the show at the New Capital Threat re, the last Cameo Room dance, and like enervating subjects. Then he glides gracefully down the hall. Seven pairs of adoring eyes follow his tall, powerful form. Words of worship rise like the chant of an Indo-Chinese chorus. And meantime Kasper meets Mr. Barnes. He bows coldly, but Mr. Barnes rushes up and greets him effusively. As for his lessons,—well, he mostly forgets what they are two days before they're assigned—that's how speedy he is! He chats confidentially with his teachers and gets them so excited they forget whether or not he ever hands in any work. Well, really, Kasper beggars description. When we tell you he has Bill Helm's clothes and graceful air of wearing them. Bill Anderson’s looks, Ralph Gilbert's ready “kale, Pete Haley's luck and cleverness, Ozzie Johnson's taking ways, Jack Canright s line, and Marky Schmitz' popularity, you can get a faint idea of what he's like. Such is the wonder of evolution. Freshmen, there's hope for you. RESOLUTIONS Gus Rubadeau: To study less—I'm getting thin. Alice Walsh: To cheer up-—I've been too sober.

TAYCHOPERA IN 1827 AND 1927 Less than 100 years ago, Indians lived in this Four Lake Region and called it ' Tay-cho-pe-rah ’ Pine torches and camp fires supplied them with light and heat. The muscular labor of men and animals furnished the power they needed. The white pioneers who followed them as sesttler of Taychopera after the Blackhawk War in 1832 used candles and oil lamps for light. Wood and coal, burned in stoves. did their heating and cooking. Power was produced by steam engines. They had few comforts and conveniences. Today gas and electric service from this company supplies the people of Madison with light, heat, and power and provides them with comforts and conveniences once denied to kings.

The athlete who comes through has stamina— staying power; the one who fails lacks it. The Burgess organizations are makers of products with stamina—the power to come through under most adverse conditions. Burgess batteries, for instance, are chosen for use on expeditions to the far corners of the earth—where staying power is essential to communication with civilization. The Burgess label is a guarantee in batteries of what you admire in sports—power and stamina.
