SMITH: I am sure that I express the sentiments of the entire Faculty in wishing God-speed to all our friends in the Class of 1941. You are entering a world torn with turmoil, doubts, and terror. Most of the old landmarks seem to be gone; you will have nothing to guide you but your own courage and judgement. But it is in the midst of such change and rapid evolution that young people of character often have their greatest opportunities, so we do not commiserate you but rather congratu- late you on your good fortune and wish you God-speed. A shipwrecked sailor stranded on this shore Bids you set sail! Full many a vessel when we struck and sank Weathered the gale! MR. CORKRAN : The school year has witnessed a steady growth in the morale of the senior class. The boys had to undergo the disappointment of being unable to lead the school to a duplica- tion of last year ' s record in football, but they rallied well to make a strong finish which coupled with the fine field hockey record achieved by the drive of the senior girls, made the autumn season one of our most successful. The impetus of the fall achievement led to successes in the Senior Play and the opera. So it has come about that under the stimulus of responsibility a group of rugged in- dividualists have come into a vigorous sense of cooperative action. The traditions of the school are handed on unimpaired and even augmented by the sturdy class of 1941. MRS. CHILDS: The growth of North Shore in 1940-41 has been like that of the sturdy trees around Knollslea and Dunlap-roots reaching ever more deeply into the earth, branches spreading ever more widely toward the outer world. The common interests between parents, faculty and students, in varied joint committees and projects, have deepened and strengthened. These three groups have joined again and again in discussions on our responsibilities to parts of the world that once seemed too far away to concern us. Bottom Row — Dr. Landau, Miss Griffin, Miss Radcliffe, Mrs. Gleason, Miss Leslie, Miss Fullerton, Miss Harvey, Mrs. Robinson, Miss Hancock, Mrs. Childs. Middle Row — Mr. Wilcock, Mr. Carpenter, Mr. French, Mr. Corkran, Mr. Millett, Mr. Duff, Mr. Harritt, Mr. Gleason, Mr. Taylor. Top Row — Mr. Massman, Mr. Anderson, Mr. Morningstar. Qt £3. THE FACULTY The Class of 1941, Past the adolescent age, Perspicacious and tenacious, Exits from the stage. Now Dunlap ' s halls are only walls And are no longer well patrolled Where once was Mr. Corkran ' s realm And patient pedants strolled. We plagued them and committed acts That they condoned hut with disgust. The faculty, its faculties Will have to re-adjust. The empty fields in silence lie And current heros (some) have gone; Where Doc incited boys to fight And spirit carried on. And Mr. Duff with anger pent, No longer with sardonic stare, With placid mien in change of scene Is getting back his hair. So to the reverend faculty All former wrongs we disavow. With recognition to erudition We leave the setting now. sn ions JULIA LOUISE ADAMS HENRY BARTHOLOMAY III SUSAN BLACKBURN BAKER GLASS Judy Vassar Hank Harvard Bake Pine Manor 6MU FML 10 EDWIN LAWRENCE BRASHEARS SUZANNE VANCE BENSINGER THOMAS LYON DAUGHADAY OF 1941 Lai Williams Sue Bennington Tom Proctor Academy 11 CHARLOTTE DARRELL BOYD GEORGE FISHER ELDREDGE EVELYN CHITTENDEN COOLIDGE CLASS Cherry 1 Smith Mouse Wesleyan Evie Sarah Lawrence 12 AUSTIN HAYES FAULKNER FLORENCE DIANE DAVIS DONALD STUART FLANNERY OF 1941 ' Augie Michigan State Flo Vassar Don Js[orthwestern 13 BARBARA IMOGENE DICK HENRY GUND GORDON PAMELA CATHERINE FINNEY CLASS Dickie Sarah Lawrence Hank Cornell Pam Vassal- g w ill yyyvx •x % 14 RICHARD WARREN HOWE JUNE ESTHER GOODMAN BERTAND DYER LANGTRY OF 1941 Warren Harvard Junie Bennett Junior Collee Andy ' M.I.T. 15 PAULINE MARY GOODRICH JOHN STEBBINS LOOMIS NANCY ELIZABETH GRAFF CLASS Polly Smith Motz Tale ' Nance Smith 16 BRADFORD MACY MARGARET LILLIAS HOYT JOHN EDWARD MILLER OF 1941 Brad University of Texas Peggy Connecticut Sonny Williams 17 CAROL STUART KOSTBADE JAMES LOWELL OAKES III ESTHER JEANNETTE KUH CLASS Kim Stevens Jimmy Harvard Kuh-Kuh Vassar •AM 4Y« FANCY Hutu 18 ROBERT RIDGEWAY BARBARA BECKER SHIRE THOMAS WHITAL STERN STAFFORD F 1941 Charlie Amherst Barb Smith Tom Harvard 19 BARBARA WAKELEY ARTHUR WELLS WALSH KATHARINE JANE WATKINS CLASS OF 194 1 Wake Vassar Art Princeton Jane Sarah Lawrence 20 CLASS WILL We, the Class of 1941, being unbelievably sound in mind and body, hereby bequeath our most ehenshed and indispensable possessions to our respected but undeserving successors : To the Juniors To the Sophomores To the Freshmen To the Faculty Art Kim Hank G.

We were at all the big school games, You know they wouldn ' t have been the same Without the Juniors there to yell And tell the players You all were swell. ' ' ' The barn dances made us all know You can ' t go wrong on do-ce ' do. None of us ever wanted to stop Although we ' d dance until we dropped. 24 Bottom Row — H. Kultchar, S. Mayer, J.

At times Miss Gilbert got provoked To hear us crack those awful jokes. Although she thought we were inane. I ' m sure she loved us just the same. All of North Shore we took in scope And we can do nothing more than hope That people will say in years to come Remember the Juniors of Hi? 25 SOPHOMORES SONG OF THE SOPHS O, the current Sophomore Class When you consider it en masse Is the greatest bunch of people you could meet; Some have humor to be feared And some are really very weird, And some have charm and wit that ' s hard to beat. There are Romeos a-plenty Think they ' re hot as Caliente, Just waiting to be added to some trousseaux, There are those both male and feminine Who are vocally preeminent, And who ' ve proven to be Jenny Linds and Carusos. And then academic whizzes Who have excelled in quizzes, Their genius terrifying their locality. An attitude scholastic And a memory most elastic Contribute toward their intellectuality. ■ 26 Bottom Row — G. Bingham, P. Pettibone, J. Monroe, N. Kostbade, J. Jones, H. Shuraan, N. Brock, S.

Absent— B. Wilson, K. Cox. Yes, I might go on to prattle Of how, on the field of sporting battle, Our classmen have shown ability and valor. But how during our vacations On comfortable and unhealthy rations We developed a soph-isticated pallor. All in all, you must admit, That the Sophomore Class has IT And that our good points, on the whole, are predominant, But for wiser or for loonier We each hope to become a Junior, And that our places there will be as prominent. We hope the succeeding bunch, With their spirit and their punch Will capably fill our Sophomore shoes. So from each and every Sophomore Along the old North Shore, To Mr. Taylor and Miss Landau, our adieus. 27 FRESHMEN POME Did you ever think what the Frosh go thru? Have you ever seen where we ' re black and blue? We get pushed around, and jostled and punched, And we ' re always the last ones into lunch. Oh, pity the poor Freshmen, When there ' s something to do, — Oh, let them. •HI H 28 Bottom Row — M. Lloyd, V. Bensinger, B. Burnett, M. Scribner, L. Wilcox, C. Hannaford, R. Welsh, E. Wilson, L.

We ' re at the Senior ' s beck and call, And often seen in late study hall. The dumb little ninth graders sit and stare, While DufRe yells and tears his hair. And the pale, neurotic, weakened Frosh Can ' t do a thing about it — Gosh What I wouldn ' t give to be a Senior — just once. 29 HIGH SCHOOL SHIPS 30 ACTIVITIES THE MIRROR By new and old methods, we have tried to reflect the general spirit of cooperation and friend- liness existing between the faculty and student body, in the 1941 Mirror. The innovations of the book speak for themselves, namely the cartoons of the seniors and faculty and the variety of pictures on the division pages. The reverend seniors are revealed as they ought to be by Malcolm Balfour and as they are in Bill Taylor ' s cartoons. A brief history of the staff ' s work and a bit of advice to our successors might here by valuable. The Mirror is organized by the seniors, usually a few individuals, but it cannot be edited nor can it be a good annual without the participation and enthusiasm of the whole school. This we discovered early, and as the year passed, the size of our staff increased. A good business manager is essential and we were fortunate in having one as dependable as Andy Langtry. A good photographic staff that will cover the whole school is also necessary. We were most fortunate in finding a talented cartoon- ist in Bill Taylor. Our circulation campaign, this year, differed from that of previous years. We sent subscrip- tion blanks to all alumni and ex-North Shore-ites. This increased the number of subscriptions. The most important thing we can say to our successors is to start work on the Mirror early. This is not transient advice but a fact. The earlier you begin, the more cash you will have, the better the book will be and your long-suffering minds will be saved much wear and tear. Working on the Mirror has been hard but fun and a wonderful experience. We hope it por- trays the year for you. 32 THE PURPLE AND WHITE Since its birth the Purple and White has carried the tradition of never being the same any two years. This year was no exception. The Purp not only made progress this year, but also introduced three innovations. First of all the Purp came out with a surplus. This is indeed something unusual. Second, the advertising staff was more active than ever before and produced many more ads per issue. Finally, a great change was made in the printing. This is the first year in many that the printing has ever been done here at school. After it was set up, Sam Earle handled the job of print- ing each issue. This greatly reduced the cost and meant that the Purp could be published almost any time. Besides the progress made by the business staff, the editorial board also made advances. Al- though there was this year, the same handicap of having too few contributors, there were several very good issues, the Christmas one especially. By printing it every two weeks the board avoided the pres- sure problems of a weekly issue. Altogether the board feels that this was, in many ways, a successful year. 33 THE STUDEIT GOVERNMENT This year, interest in the Student Government increased due to pressing financial problems. The situation has been steadily augmenting through the years, and this year we had to face it at once. When the treasurer made out his budget he found that the expenses greatly exceeded the income. We tried to work it out by cutting down expenditures and by finding new methods of raising money. The deficiency in the income was due largely to the lack of interest in the Vaudeville, which has been netting smaller amounts of money each year, while the interest in sports and other demands for money have expanded. To meet the deficit, the Junior girls staged a Fashion Show which gave the council $60, but even with this the budget remained unbalanced. We had hoped that the Opera would solve our difficulties, but it failed to make any money. Up to this point we have not been able to see our way clear with- out drawing from our reserve fund. This year there was no demand for a new constitution as the present constitution has stood the test of two years well and is adequate for our needs. We have received an invitation to send delegates to the Illinois Student Government Conven- tion at Springfield and we intend to be represented there. In order to work more efficiently this year, the Special Duties Committee took over many of the duties which were formerly assigned to different grades, and it formed committees with representa- tives from each grade. In looking ahead to next year, we feel that some definite action must be taken in regard to the financial situation, as we cannot continue under the present plan. 34 THE ORCHESTRA The orchestra has had an especially good year. Besides its annual concert in morning exercise, it went down to Francis Parker School and gave a brilliant performance of the Rakoczy March, a Hun- garian tune arranged by Page, the Norwegian Dance by Grieg, the Air from the Suite in D by Bach, the Dance of the Flutes from the Nutcracker Suite by Tschaikowsky, and the Ballet Music from Rosamunda by Shubert. The students of Francis Parker applauded so enthusiastically that the orches- tra played the Rokocsy March again as an encore. Many people are unaware of the difficulties the orchestra encounters. In the first place, it is handicapped by the lack of time. Because of all the other extra-curricular activities, the orchestra is able to rehearse as a whole only one period a week. Therefore it has to work doubly hard in what time it has to get any results at all. The second handicap is the skeptical attitude a good many peo- ple take towards the orchestra. This is because they compare it with other orchestras which have none of the limitations we have. The third handicap is that of having so few people who play instru- ments, that we can ' t pick and choose our members as they do in larger schools. In the opera, this year, the orchestra did a grand job, and tackling Gilbert and Sullivan on an instrument is no joke! So, in spite of the orchestra ' s handicaps, there is a great deal of enthusiasm among its members and a growing interest throughout the school. 35 THE OPERA This year, North Shore presented an unfamiliar opera, Ruddigore or The Witches ' Curse. The plot is somewhat different from other operas, as it doesn ' t involve either mistaken identity or the interchanging of babies. The plot weaves itself around a baronetcy with a curse upon its head and how a simple farmer inherits the curse and what he does with it. The characters are out of the or- dinary, ranging from a demure sweet young thing to a mad young lady. The second act displays Gil- bert ' s skill in writing a fantastic libretto. The long line of dead ancestors step out of their picture frames and commence to agonize the young baronet, all of which is strongly felt by the audience. Everything ends happily and the principals are all married, much to the joy of the professional bridesmaids and to the great relief of the audience. Under the supervision of Miss Bacon, the scenery was most effective, and the second act was especially fine. The picture frames were so well made that when the ancestors took their places be- hind them and appeared, the audience was completely surprised. The costumes were new and typical of the Kate Greenaway period. The lovely effects were ac- complished through the untiring efforts of the mothers, who started work after Christmas and never stopped until the opera was over. As usual, Mrs. Gleason worked out the steps and actions of the chorus, besides creating a horn- pipe which delighted us all. Under the professional leadership of Mr. Duff, Mr. Smith, and Miss Radcliffe, the humor of the lines and general actions of both the leads and chorus, were brought to their highest points. The or- chestra, under the diligent direction of Mr. Duff, was made up of members of the school and several outside professionals. They gave the score its fullest conception and brought out the overflow of melody that is apparent in all of Sullivan ' s music. The scenes were changed and set in record-breaking time due to the ability of the stage crew, which performed quickly and quietly. Our faces were rendered unrecognizable by the efforts of the freshman girls, who learned and skillfully practiced the art of stage make-up. This training was administered to them by Miss Rad- cliffe. And so with pretty maids, bucks and blades, and a slight measle scare, the opera fully rose to the high standards of former operas. 36 RUDDIGORE Sir Despard Murgatroyd - - - Art Walsh Rose Maybud - Jane Watkins 6?

Stage manager Bob McCulloch 37 THE SMIOR PLAY About two weeks before Christmas vacation, ideas for a senior play were coming in thick and fast. Almost every member of the class gave some suggestion. When Tovarich was proposed, the reaction was one of complete indifference. A few people remembered a movie with Charles Boyer and still fewer recalled the play. But after the play was read in class, enthusiasm mounted and it was decided that Tovarich was to be the choice. Parts were assigned after Christmas vacation and the scenery and property committees were ap- pointed. Rehearsals ended every school day until the night of February 14th. Each Saturday morn ' ing, the whole cast rehearsed under the supervision of Miss Radcliffe and Mr. Smith in the auditorium. A few technical difficulties occurred when the unfamiliar Russian words were pronounced, but we were fortunate in having with us, Madame Wolkcnsky, a native Russian, who helped us immense- ly, fixing up the ragged edges of every would-be Russian accent and gesture. Her valuable assistance gave a more authentic atmosphere to the very Russian parts of the play. An outsider, seeing the seniors crossing themselves and mumbling strange words, might have thought he had wandered, by mistake, into a home for the mentally weak, but those who understood, knew that the seniors were merely perfecting the Russian touches. The scenery involved a great deal of staying after hours, but everyone agreed it was worth the time spent. Each of the four scenes had a different background, but the scenery committee worked willingly to produce some of the most effective sets ever seen in a senior play. The properties that went with them were complicated and were handled well by the committee. The actual performances went off smoothly, on February 14th and 15th. Thanks again to Mr. Smith and Miss Radcliffe for directing the play and giving us their help. 38 THE VAUDEVILLE This year when our Vaudeville Committee met, we decided that we had better revolutionize the whole Vaudeville. The students were losing interest and the quality of the show had been steadily declining. As one of our innovations, we tried having acts from the Lower and Middle School. Our specialties were varied, including the junior girls ' Life Behind the Scenes, and the senior girls ' take-off on Hel ' z, A-Poppin. Don Flannery ' s Irish tunes went off well. We would like to thank the stage crew, the faculty, our printer, Sam Earle, and George Eldredge, our most active manager, for their unfailing efforts in the production of the 1941 Vaudeville. THE CHRISTMAS PLAY Is my halo straight? Where is my crown? Did Susie bring her doll for the crib? I forgot my belt! Quiet backstage! shouted an important-looking stage-hand. The prompter crept to his stool. Miss Bacon gave a last twitch to the evergreens around the hill where Mary and Joseph settled down for their long wait. A hush fell on the audience. The last nervous yank at a robe stopped. The curtain parted to a dimly lit stage as the three prophets, Isaiah, Micah, and Hosea climbed into character. Each gave his bit of information while behind scenes a few angels gave relieved sighs for friends who, a minute ago, were absolutely petrified. The Three Kings continued their quest of centuries and Herod again tried to foil the plot. A Heavenly Host rose, singing joyously as a light revealed Joseph, Mary and their babe. As the curtain fell, no sound came as the watchers bridged the 1940 years back to Christmas and we knew that the spirit of that day had been shared by all. THE JUNIOR PLAYS On Saturday evening, May 10th, the Junior Class presented a varied and enter- taining bill of four one-act plays, comedy, tragedy, and farce. The comedy, a play by that popular author, Booth Tarkington, typified the American in Sicily, and another play by Anna Niggli, a newcomer to the drama, was based upon Mexican peasant life. The play dealt with the efforts of an imaginative peasant to raise money for a goat. The title was The Red Velvet Goat. As an entr ' acte we had a very interesting bit written by an English pyschiatrist just after World War I. We also included a very tense and tragic play by Eugene O ' Neill, Where the Cross is Made. It is a study of two people, both mad, who are tied together by a great belief, and yet hate each other to such an extent that although father and son, they each try to ruin the other ' s life. With this program of varied and interesting drama, we are sure that everyone had an enjoyable evening. 39 THE TOY SHOP This year, as in past years, the entire student body worked in the Toy Shop, both in making new toys and in repairing old ones for the charities of this vicinity. After an appropriation was given by the Student Government, work started immediately. Mass production jigs were designed and built, and were ready for use on the first day of Toy Shop, which was the Monday after Thanksgiving. Fourteen different types of wooden toys were made. After these toys were manufactured, they were dipped in dyes or painted by hand in the fancy painting department. This operation com- pleted, they were packed into boxes and shipped to the Chicago charities. Only a few were saved for the Christmas Party exhibit. Our drive for canned goods proved most successful. More than a thousand cans were brought to school by the various grades. Our policy, this year, was to make toys more perfect without sacrificing quantity. Our efforts were rewarded not only in the upper school but in the Lower and Middle Schools as well. The toys of the lower grades were not only well made but extremely original. We would like to express our gratitude to everybody — faculty, students and parents, — who con- tributed so much towards the success of the Toy Shop. Tom Stern proved an efficient manager and next year ' s committee will have high standards to attain. 40 THE S1ITA CLAUS PARTY On Wednesday, December 18, 1940, Santa made his annual visit to North Shore, and was re- ceived in the boys ' gym by a large group of students, faculty and parents. As a prelude to Santa ' s entrance, the school sang tu Jingle Bells and a senior girl read The Night Before Christmas. Then there was a hush and down the chimney came Santa, his nose like a cherry and his bundle of popcorn balls on his back. After a hearty welcome from Mr. Smith, Saint Nick surveyed the toys on display, made by the students, and was well satisfied. The grades performed their dances, next, as follows: The Circus — 3rd and 8th Grades. Cschbogar — 6th and 9th Grades. Ring Dance — 5th and 10th Grades. Children ' s Polka — 4th and 7th Grades. Hickory Dickory Dock — 2nd and 12th Graades. Looby Loo — kindergarten, 1st and 12th Grades. Jenny Pluck Pears — The Faculty. Following the dances, the representatives from the first eight grades told about their toy projects. Santa then distributed the popcorn balls among the lower grades and young guests, and wishing us all a very merry Christmas, he departed with promises to be back next year. 41 k DAY 42 SPORTS 1940 FOOTBALL TEAM At the opening of the season, North Shore ' s hopes of reaching the standards set by last year ' s team appeared dim. Graduation had snatched from the varsity throngs all except four lettermen, but despite the general feeling of despondence, Head Coach Andersen and line-coach Lambert made the squad of thirty-five boys buckle down and begin strenuous work in the warm-up sessions. For our first opponent, Northbrook, a newcomer to our schedule, the squad had high hopes of victory. We travelled to their field and encountered a strong, rugged organization. Their power plays through the line battered the purple squad badly for the first half, but we retaliated and showed definite improvement in the second, when we took the part of aggressor. However the damage had already been done in the last minute and a half of the first half when Northbrook completed one pass and intercepted another for two quick touchdowns. The final score was Northbrook 12, N. S. 0. The squad showed promise and worked hard the following week. On a hot, muggy day we met our next opponent, Todd, on our field. Both teams were bothered by the heat and played only a fair ' brand of football. The decisive play occurred near the final gun of the first half. Todd, deep in pur- ple territory, took to the air in order to break the tie. This sealed their doom, however, as a fleet North Shore back intercepted a poor pass and dashed eighty-five yards for six points. The final score was N. S. 6, Todd 0. Injuries seriously handicapped our men the next week as two of our main-stays were confined to the sidelines . However, this seemed to be a spark of incentive for the team, and they faced Har- vard on our field with the will to win. North Shore was on the defense for the greater part of the 44 HEAVYWEIGHTS MIDDLEWEIGHTS LIGHTWEIGHTS 45 first quarter, but in the second quarter things looked up as a completed pass brought us within twenty yards of the opponent ' s goal line. On the following play, a successful run gained six points for North Shore and then a seventh as the enemy were confused on a short pass. Harvard was undaunted and struck back quickly as they plowed the length of the field, only to be stopped by an inspired North Shore team on the four yard line. The third quarter found a Harvard halfback brilliantly squirming from the grasp of the bewildered purple players, to run sixty yards for a touchdown. Their point for conversion was unsuccessful. In the fourth quarter, the North Shore eleven was again called upon to make a goal line stand to protect their one point lead. This time Harvard had first down and eight for a goal, but North Shore ' s defensive proved invulnerable and the game soon ended. The final score was N. S. 7, Harvard 6. The following Saturday, the North Shore eleven had a rugged afternoon with Milwaukee. In the first half, the large throng that had gathered to watch the game saw a determined purple eleven fight almost on even terms. As the second half opened, North Shore was on the short end of a 7-0 score, and soon with brilliant blocking and hard running, Milwaukee proved to be masters of the situation and iced the game, the final score being 39-0. Gaining confidence from a mid-week scrimmage with New Trier ' s J. V. ' s, which proved to be lopsided in the purple ' s favor, North Shore took the field the next Saturday, expecting an easy game from their smaller opponents of Francis Parker. As the game progressed, the purple team didn ' t seem to be able to get underway and were sadly outshone in every sense of the word. The final score was Parker 13, N. S. 0. Two consecutive defeats had left the team in a serious frame of mind. They buckled down and stepped on the field to vanquish their next opponent, Wheaton. The game opened with North Shore on the march, only to be stopped yards short of their opponent ' s goal. This only halted the purple eleven temporarily, as they soon afterwards connected with a successful pass to cross the op- ponent ' s line for the first time in three games. They continued to be the aggressors and were never in serious trouble during the game. The final score was N. S. 19, Wheaton 0. With snow on the sidelines and a brilliant sun overhead, North Shore faced a confident Latin team the next Saturday, for their last game of the season. The black and orange were anxious to avenge their sad showing of last year ' s game. Soon after the opening gun, a long pass brought the purple team to Latin ' s ten yard line, and immediately following, a fumble caused North Shore to lose the ball. But when we again gained possession of it, another pass marked up our first tally. From then on the spirits of our opponents cracked and they seemed helpless against a brilliant pass offense which found the purples completing seven for seven. North Shore ' s spirit and command on the field demonstrated a brand of football that had not been seen in the previous year. The final score was North Shore 38, Latin 0. The season, on the whole was not a discouraging one. Numerous injuries handicapped the squad throughout the season. The team, Captain Brashears and Manager Miller wish to express their sincere gratitude to Ric Lambert for his untiring help. We feel confident that next year ' s squad under :he leadership of Jim Green will be more than successful. This year, the boys who couldn ' t participate in varsity football helped to coach the younger squads. Although for the first time in a number of years the undefeated middleweights were de ' feated, the combined results of the heavy, middle and lightweight squads were not discouraging. One who would take a glance at Mr. Harriet ' s heavies going through their calisthenics almost felt sorry for them. In this line they completely topped the varsity. As the number of boys was not sufficient for a full sized lightweight team, six man football was adopted with a great deal of success. Mr. Gleason ' s middleweights were a sad bunch when they suffered their first defeat, but they fought on. Finally the J. V. ' s had a fairly successful season, winning from Niles Center and Francis Parker, but losing to Milwaukee and to Lake Forest Academy. BASKETBALL (£5 VARSITY JUNIOR VARSITY When the basketball squad of the HO-M-l season was called onto the floor for its first practice, the coach and veterans surveyed the group and predicted a rather gloomy season, but as time passed, new members enrolled and a brighter outlook opened. The varsity started slow in their first game against Latin, but after the first half found their eyes and coasted to victory, 27-10. After solving the tricky ball handlers of Wheaton the next week they played one of their best games against Northbrook. The game was excellently played and North- br ook, being calmer under heat, only won the game in the final seconds, 29-2 3. After walking to a mid-week victory over Harvard, 27-19, North Shore played Francis Parker on our floor the next Fri- day. Parker jumped to a 14-0 lead, even though the raiders were the aggressors. We lost the game 29-24. If the team could always have been as dead on their shots as they were in the next game with Evanston ' s J. V. ' s (sinking 19 longs out of 48) the season would have been perfect. That game we won 39-24. We also disposed of Latin that week, 26-14, in the roughest game of the season. By winning in the last minute and a half against Milwaukee, 25-19, the squad felt they had avenged their shellacking in football. The end of that same week, it looked as though Parker had a jinx on us, for even though we played stellar ball, they made it two straight by winning 28-18. In the (Continued on Page 70J 49 BASEBALL Baseball practice began immediately after Easter vacation when a large squad under Mr. Har- riett met in the gym, ready to bring a successful close to this year ' s athletic record. The boys learned theory and loosened up their stiff arms in the gym until the weather was fair enough for the team to move out to the field which is in excellent shape with the addition of a new backstop. The enthusiasm of this year ' s squad is high in spite of a varying record. As this article goes to press, there are still three big games to be played in which N.S. may avenge some of its earlier defeats. One thing about this year ' s season is that almost every loss has been because of one bad inning, usually the sixth; except for that one inning, the team, even in defeat, has played fine ball. This year ' s opener was with Francis Parker on our field, with Hank Gordon pitching. N.S. went into an early lead, getting one run on a walk and two singles, but Parker came back with two runs in the second on a few errors and a single with the bases loaded. The lead see-sawed back and forth until Parker was ahead 6-5 at the end of the sixth. Both teams were held scoreless in the seventh. The second game was again with Parker on our field, Gordon once more pitching. Parker was held scoreless until the sixth when they put across one run. We got four in the third on several hits and three more in the fourth when George Eldredge hit a home-run with two on. Parker came back with three in the seventh, but we had cinched the game in the sixth, scoring one run. Gordon ' s pitching yielded only one hit, while N.S. had six. In our third game with Elgin Academy, there was a pitcher ' s duel all the way with Paul Wil- liams more than holding up his end. N.S. got two runs in the second and one in the fifth, while Elgin could get only one — that in our fatal sixth. The final score was 3-1, our favor, with Wil- liams only giving up two hits. The next game, with Milwaukee, Gordon started pitching but only lasted to the third, when Williams relieved him after he had yielded nine runs, almost all on errors, however. Meanwhile N.S. had picked up five runs. In the fourth Milwaukee got four and picked up two more in the 50 S BIMBBBBHflBI HHBHBy seventh, while N.S. got three in the fourth, two in the fifth, and one in the seventh. The final score was 15-11, Milwaukee ' s favor. Our fifth game was with Latin on their field. Gordon started pitching but was relieved in the first by Williams when Latin had made five runs with only one out. Williams held Latin score- less until the sixth and meanwhile we had gone into the lead, 6-5. Latin came back, making five more runs in the sixth, and winning 10-6. The next game, with Luther on our field, was another pitcher ' s duel. Williams gave up one run in the first and one in the fifth, and was relieved in the sixth by Gordon, when Luther pushed across seven runs. N.S. got two in the fourth and five in the sixth, and the game ended 9-7. The second game with Luther was on their field. Williams started pitching and was relieved in the sixth by Gordon who was in turn relieved by Howe. Luther scored one run in the fourth, two in the fifth, and seven in the sixth, while N.S. scored only two in the first and one in the seventh. The final score was, Luther — 10, N.S. — 3. Our last game, so far, was with Milwaukee on their diamond. The game was scoreless until the fourth inning, when Milwaukee scored two runs. We came back in the fifth with one and added another in the sixth, tying the score. Milwaukee got two more in the sixth and won 4-2 in spite of Williams ' two-hit pitching. Although the record this season has not been so good, the team has been out there trying every single moment. The boys have learned a great deal from Coach Harriett and under Captain Dunny Smith. With a few breaks here and there, and less sixth inning blow-ups, we expect the team to finish off the season in fine shape and start next year off with a clean slate and great prospects for success. 51 SPORT 52 SNAPS 53 HOCKEY As the 1940 hockey season came to a close with a glorious banquet, everyone felt a little sad, for truthfully this season was considered one of the best in the history of the school. When last year ' s seniors graduated, Mrs. Gleason was a bit doubtful about the success of the next season, because they had made up the varsity squad. But as the year began, a new feeling seemed to be cast over the school and par- ticularly the girls. From the very first day of hockey every girl seemed to be doing her best to help the team. This continued and the result was our successful record. For this year the first three teams were undefeated, untied and unscord upon. Above this, WE (of the weaker sex) defeated the football squad and the faculty! The successful season was due in part to the technique and teamwork of the squads. This year, as usual, there were individual stars but there was also what Mrs. Gleason calls the best teamwork in years. Everyone was out to help our team. The girls feel that our success was for a great part due to Mrs. Gleason. She was an inspiration to us all. Cherry Boyd, our captain also filled us with her enthusiasm and spirit and was a fine leader. Judy Adams the manager did an able job in arranging games. To those who helped with the refreshments — well, they were the tops! 54 SECOND TEAM 3RD AND 4TH TEAM MIDDLE SCHOOL TEAMS . lift fit ill 7 1- 1 f It ■?• I H iff I t=t t 55 More people than ever attended the Saturday morning practices at Skokie playfield, and a great deal of technique was learned. This year, as customary, N. S. sent five girls to the tryouts for the North Shore School Girls ' teams. Jane Watkms, Polly Goodrich, Flo Davis, Judy Adams and Cherry Boyd represented us. Polly and Cherry made the first team and Judy the second, which was a great honor. Besides our three big games, we had playdays with New Trier and Evanston High and a prac- tice game with the North Shore Women ' s team. The weather this year was unusually bad and we had to cancel our game with Milwaukee Downer. We ' d also like to mention the Middle School because this is where the real training begins. Our sixth, seventh, and eighth grade teams did very well this year in their two games. As a climax to the season the hockey banquet was held. After various speeches the announce- ment of next year ' s manager and captain was made. The team of 1940 is to be led by Marge Otter and its manager is Connie Wallace. Good luck to you all!

Due to an epidemic of measles and flu at Kemper Hall, and to many conflicts on the schedules of North Shore and Roycemore, those games had to be cancelled. Thus we had only one in- terscholastic game, in which Latin School ' s fast-playing teams defeated us, 30-10 and 20-15. Besides this game, there was an intramural series in which every class of the high school played the other three. After several lively battles, the seniors came up as the champions. Each year the girls play a hot game with the boys, and the scores this year, as usual, showed us badly beaten, 45-4 and 45-6. It would take a team of super women to win over the boys ' speedy at- tack. Under the leadership of our captain, Pam Finney, the spirit and enthusiasm were especially fine this year. Besides having fun, we learned many basketball tactics with Mrs. Gleason ' s helpful guid- ance. There has been such a keen interest among the classes that we are looking forward to seeing girls ' basketball as one of the school ' s major sports. 58 MIDDLE on LOWER SCHOOLS 8 th GRADE MIDSUMMER NIGHT ' S DREAM Gentils perchance you wonder at this show, But wonder on til truth makes all things plain.

It is a fact that I ' m a star To fool around in Algebra. 60 ■J fr- . : ' ■ L v p. . j ■ .; ' . ;; ' ■ ' %( -J I. Hodgson, F. Burlingham, M. Shaw, F. Macy, R. Rolmsn, D. Ward, M. Hull, L. Gordon, B.

Basketball was new to both the girls and boys and field hockey was new to the girls. We have a Student Government and quite a few committees; some work out well but most of them don ' t. For instance, there is the Lunch Line Committee which has had its ups and downs. The boys have had a lot of fun working the camera for the science and health movies this year. We want to thank Mrs. Barber for fixing up Eliot Hall. The grade has enjoyed using the ice skating ponds. The girls tried to be Sonja Henies and the boys tried to be like Mush March. The seventh grade also has had the privilege of using the Social Room which has a phonograph, many records, a sofa and chairs. 63 Bac Row: F. Dunbaugh, V. Daughaday, F. Jones. Middle Row: B.

When each person was finished with his or her topic Mr. Morningstar mimeographed copies of all the topic and made them into books, and each person got a copy. When we finished that we decided that we would have a Swedish Christmas. So we got a small Christmas tree and decorated it with stars and figures we made in art. Then we made baskets for a Christmas tree outdoors for the birds and filled them with seeds. We also made strings of cranberries and suet and hung them on the tree. We got so interested in Sweden that we started to study about that country. We each took a different subject as we did in the Vikings. But instead of putting them into a book we made an exhibit for our fathers and mothers. Miss Eklund a Swedish lady came and talked to us on Sweden and taught us a Swedish dance called the Klapp Dance and we showed it to our mothers and fathers that night. Also we had for dinner a Smorgasbord. We had funny kinds of things to eat. They were all different kinds of Swedish food. The real Smorgasbord is just an ap- petizer. The one we had was a whole meal. We had some Head Cheese and funny kinds of salads. The day after we had the exhibit we gave a Morning Ex on it. Not every person that got to talk that night got to talk in Morning Ex because we had to cut it down so it would only last a half an hour and that night, it lasted two hours. We danced the dance in Morning Exercise too. Peter Kiem played the piano for the dance both times. Bdc Row: B. Misch, D. Cook, F. Boal, S. Searle, W. Clare, H. Carpenter, J. Harris, C. Austin, J.

THE FOURTH GRADE One of the first things the Fourth Grade studied was the islands of the South Seas ' - - the Philippines, Java, Sumatra, Bora Bora, and the Hawaiian Islands. We read many books. We went to the Field Museum to look at clothes, nets, masks, totem poles, idols, canoes, dishes, drums and houses. We went to the Art Institute, Lincoln Park Conservatory, and the Zoo. We studied for a long time then we painted a picture. It shows a jungle and a rice field. The jungle has tropical things - - ' bamboo, palm trees, ferns and colorful bushes. There is a tiger-hunt in the jungle. The picture looks exciting and the tiger looks hungry. Five men are closing in on the tiger. There is a trap made of bamboo poles with vines holding it together. It is arranged so that when the tiger walks in the door closes. In another part of the picture there is a little hut built on long poles. The hut is made of grass. It has a ladder leading up to the door. At night the ladder is pulled up into the house. In another part of the picture there are some children playing hide and seek. A boy is climb- ing a tree for cocoanuts. The people do not wear many clothes and their skin is a dark tan color. Birds are flying in the air and there are some very white clouds in one part of the blue sky. Many shadows are in the jungle part of the picture. 66 Bac Row: L. Perlstein, C. Burnett, R. Ott, A.

THE THIRD GRADE Wc are going to finish our Miniature Plan of the Grade Separation Project, this year. We don ' t think the real project will be finished though. They are having trouble. We have made the bridges. The prettiest bridge is the Indian Hill Bridge. It has designs on it. There are Indian arrow heads under the bridge and Indians at the ends of the bridge. We are going to give a morning ex. with the 4th and 5th grades. We are going to tell them about the tracks. We made up some poems and acted them out. This one is about the pile driver. Wc saw it at Indian Hill when they were making the bridge. It went : S-ch-S-ch ' S-ch Down Up ' Down Up ' Down Up-Down Up- Down goes the pile driver. 67 Bac Row: P. King, L. Sherman, A. Lawrence, M.

We have learned that they are good weav- ers. We have two big blankets and one little one in our room that the Indians wove. They have very pretty designs in them. We have decided to weave too. So we have made our looms in the shop. We sawed four pieces of wood. Two of them were thirteen inches long. Two of them were eighteen inches long. We sandpapered them until they were nice and smooth. Then we nailed them together. We put little nails at both ends one fourth inch apart. We put heavy wires at the sides to keep the sides of our new rug straight. Then we strung them with heavy string. We have drawn patterns for our rugs. We arc not going to make fancy designs. We know that would be too hard for us. We are going to make just stripes. We have lots of pretty colored yarn to weave with. We think our rugs are going to be very pretty. Dictated by the group. Bac Row: J. Smith, J. Shaw, J. Glaser, A. Whitfield, D. Kimball.

We made orange-crate furniture for it. Then we played in the house. We took a trip to the Skokie lagoons. We gathered autumn leaves and seeds for our room. We brought caterpillars to school. They spun cacoons. We have had plants and a turtle in our room. Now we have two baby chicks. We made a pen for them. We give them food and water and clean their pen everyday. At Christmas time we sewed stockings and filled them with toys. We sent them to children who don ' t have so many things to play with. We gave a Nativity Play in the auditorium. We have learned lots of poems and songs. We made Poetry Books of the poems we learned. We have built a village in our room. We are learning all about Winnetka. We have had fun in school this year. Dictated b the children. 69 PETER AID FLOPSIE We have some rabbits at school. They are named Flopsie and Peter. The brown one is Peter and the white one is Flopsie. We feed them water, carrots, lettuce and green tops. We have them in a cage. We help to clean it out. Dictated by the Kindergarten children. BASKETBALL (Continued from Page 49J prelude to two breathtaking games that were to follow the next week, we conquered Harvard 2 3-13. Entering, the Evanston J. V. game over-confident, the Raiders had their ears pinned back to the tune of 18-8 at half time. But in as thrilling a finish as has ever been seen at school, the Raiders fought their way back into the game to win, practically as the gun sounded, 33-32. In our final game at Milwaukee the score was very close all the way, but with two minutes to go and Milwaukee holding a six point lead, the team executed four quick baskets to win in a 26-24 victory. The J. Ws had a wonderful season, even outshining the varsity with their 10 for 12 victory rec- ord. With teams from Latin, Harvard, Wheaton and Northbrook they found little trouble. After taking their first game from Parker, 21-14, they found their second game much tougher. In a hard- fought battle, the J. Ws only won by a basket in a sudden death period after an overtime which still found the two teams tied. Evanston easily defeated the J. Ws in their first game but in a thrill- ing finish the purple made it even by winning the second game in the final 2 5 seconds, 29-27. Over- confidence played havoc with the boys m their final game, and they spoiled a perfect season by fall- ing to pieces and losing to Milwaukee 11-7. Out of 24 games the teams won 19 which makes the ' 40- ' 41 season the best on the school ' s record. The spirit of the teams was high under the leadership of Captain Faulkner and the retiring members of the squad feel that the 41 - ' 42 season will also be a banner year under the guidance of Coach Harriet and Captain Taylor. 70 LIST OF ADVERTISERS Page Aimee ---.,, 74 American Cleaners 6-?
