There is not only the memory of Dr. iXIcl-oughlin, but the beautiful and picturesque pioneer home of the HFather of Oregonl' which graces the seemingly lazy, but busy VVillamette. The old home, which is open to visitors, has been preserved in his honor by the lIcl.oughlin Nlemorial Association. Before occupying its present site at Seventh and Center Streets, it was located on Fourth and Klain Streets. It was moved to its present location in IQOQ and by excellent care has been made into the most delightful spot in the city. The frontispiece of this issue shows the house, surrounded by beautiful trees and shrubs, all native plants of Oregon, which lend it a distinctive charm. Nvhen one looks in at the door of the house one is immediately impressed by the queer high-backed chairs, the old, old sewing machine, an antique piano, and the heavy old desk over which Ur. 1IcLoughlin transacted important business. Colorful pictures vividly describe Oregon scenery. Old letters and documents seem to make one live in the days of long ago. But let us discover the pioneer himself. VVlien Dr. lllclsoughlin arrived on the Columbia in 1824, his mission was to take charge of Fort George at the mouth of the Columbia River. This was the western emporium of the Hudson Bay Fur Company, which was now carrying on the fur trade west of the Rocky Nlountains. Dr. lVIcLoughlin's first step was to abandon Fort George and establish his headquarters at Point Vancouver. The following year, 1825. Fort Vancouver was erected at a point about three miles from the Columbia River, and was fortified in primitive fashion. Because of the enormous fur trade it soon became the chief business section and clearing center west of the Rocky Nlountains. Dr. lllclsoughlin remained in charge of affairs for twenty years and was very influential in the Oregon territory, which included all of Oregon, VVashington and part of Idaho. Because of his firm control of the Indians of the entire territory, his kindness and hospitality to American traders. missionaries, adventurers and colonists, he is richly deserving of the title of i'Father of Oregon . Because of his encouragement to American colonists and immigrants, he was forced to resign his position in the Hudson Bay Fur Com- pany which was controlled by British subjects. But Dr. llclsoughlin continued the work of establishing an American foothold in the Oregon territory. He founded Oregon City in 1846, and made his home here until his death, in 1857. It is sad, indeed, that this man who did so much for the early settlers should have received such unjust treatment at the hands of a few who did not value his friendship. By an act of the Oregon Legislature in 1862, his home and the greater part of his land claims were restored to his heirs, and his memory has been kept sacred by all those who love 'fOld Oregon . -Beriflrz Ifartke, '2fI. -+ + xnMINg,5f1'A1m'1'1oN I NV.

Tripped she lightly up the stairway, Sought her desk in Senior roll room, Pulled out many a book and paper, Then went gaily to her classrooms Smiling sweetly at her teachers, Slyly worked them for a good mark. Till at last the morning over, VVended she her way to dinner. Fell into the long procession, At the end of the long bread-line. Step by step she moved up nearer, Nearer to the home of Plenty, Where the Johnny-cakes and wienees, Scattered were with lavish hand. But O bitter disappointment! Gone were all the little wienies, Gone the Johnny-cakes and doughnuts. Even gone were the dill pickles. Sad she was and heavy-hearted, As she looked with eager longing At the empty, empty counters. O the cruel, cruel hunger! O the wailing of the bread-line! U the wasting of the good time! She had spent upon the bread-line. Angrily she turned away then. Turned her steps unto the sweet-shop, Solaced her with some sweet chocolate, For five bits of shining wampum, T'hen returned unto the building, Sought the quiet of the library, There she waded deep in study. Suddenly the door was opened, In the doorway stood a young brave Tall he was and well proportioned, Clad in one of SWartz's latest, With a rainbow-colored necktie. UCome, he said, the sun is shining, Green is all the blooming Campus, And in spring the walkingls fine. Joyfully she rose to meet him, Swiftly pwsed they from the scene. illice Igiffllldll - v H .

C. H. S. as Freshmen. Of course, our ignorance amused the upper class- men, but that did not bother us a bit, for we were eager to learn. The Sopho- mores administered their usual welcome by ducking the boys. VVe were a little late in getting accustomed to the various rules, but on November 20, we held our first class meeting to elect the following officers: Lot Beatie, Presidentg Kathryn Eastham, Vice-President, Alta Burke, Secretary: Thomas Graham, Sergeant-at-Arms, and Ruth Downer, Class Editor. VVe, as Freshmen, loyally supported all school activities, such as the Literary Society and the Athletic Association. Also we were very proud of having a letter man of the football team, John Nleyers, as a member of our class. VVe had more members in the orchestra than any other one class, but only two girls joined the Glee Club. The Freshmen girls organized a very lively basketball team. They had some interesting games with the Juniors. In February we held a class meeting at which the class colors-silver gray and coral-were chosen. Also a pink rosebud was chosen for the class flower, and the class motto, 'iVVe Strive to Learnn, was selected. Annabelle Lesch, a member of our Freshman class, won Hrst place in the Clackamas County Essay contest. Toward the end of the year, the Freshmen delighted the assembly with a program consisting of a song and dance by six colonial girls, and some other numbers, in which Alta Burke. and Anna Nlclsarty, Thomas Graham and Samuel lXIcLarty were the main performers. - All in all, we had a very successful school year, considering that we were only Freshmen. To conclude this year of hard work we had a picnic at Schnooer's Park. The following year the Sophomores showed pep that was hard to heat, Not long after school began we elected the following officers: President, Helen Ann Jones, Vice-President, Harold Cook, Class Editor, Rose Ruminski. One of the first events of the year was a party which we gave for the Freshmen. VVe went Hover the top in the different drives, such as the Thrift Stamp drive, the drive for membership in the Red Cross and in the Athletic Association. Toward the end of the year we had our class party which everyone seemed to enjoy. Tfhe Sophomores presented at the Athletic Association benefit a number of patriotic tableau?-1, which were very appropriate to the times.

VVC also were the chanipions in the inter-class baseball. Our star baseball players were Arnold Fisher, Kenneth Sw ansen and Harold Cook. Tlhose of the Juniors who played football were Sidney VVarner, Leonard Davis and John Meyfers. February I3 we gave our class party, which was a. decided success. The assembly hall yi as decorated in the class colors, silver gray and coral. The program was very original and everyone went home well satisfied. The junior stunt, given for the Hesperian Benefit, was a striking comedy. Those taking part were: Samuel 1IcLarty, Harry Chandler, Laura Brunner, Noma Freytag, Reva Jones, lVIary Lucas, Helen Ann Jones, Anna Parker, Helen Scott, Bertha Hartke, lVIable Barnett, Elsie Clark, Katherine Long, Weldon Fuge, Clement Lizberg. Although the year as Juniors was very successful, we hoped for a better when we became mighty Seniors. In September we came back. seventy-five strong, full-fledged Seniors, feeling bigger than we really were. We held our first class meeting October I, in order to elect class officers. Those elected were: Harry Chandler, President: Arthur lVIcDonald, Vice-President: Kenneth Swanson, Secretary and Treasurer: Lanora Beatie, Fditztrg Blary Lucas, Class Historian. Later in the year lVIary Lucas resigned her office as Historian and Laura Brunner was chosen to fill the vacancy. The majority ef the boys on the football team were Seniors. Those playing were: frthur McDtrnald, Robert Beatie, Leonard Davis, Sidney VVar- ner, Leslie Kellogg, Harry Chandler and fXIelvin Gleason. The boys worked hard and made a gzod showing, although they did lose a few games. A number of Seniors tried out for debating. Those who were successful were: Alfred Beatie, Katherine Long and Carl Kluender. This was quite a showing from one class. We were the champions of the inter-class baseball. The games were quite interesting and the team showed good spirit, considering the time they lad practiced. The Seniors who made the school baseball team are: Arnold Fisher, Kenneth Swanson. January 23 the Seniors gave a very amusing and successful masquerade party. The selecting of the clals emblem caused great excitement. VVe hope you have noticed our pins, for we feel very proud of them. L. L. 0 S Ii N I O R S O Page 323 A Hesperian Benefit, in which each class took part, was given at the be- ginning of the second semester. The Seniors gave a tableau, showing how the seasons come and go. Then came the steady drilling and practicing for the Senior play, HAmerica's Part . It was written by one of our teachers, lllrs. VVoodard, and we are very proud to present this play for that reason. It makes it much more interesting and enjoyable for us. The story of the play centers about the war, taking in scenes both at home and Over There . It includes Red Cross and Salvation Army girls, dashing soldier boys and Farmerettes. As we look back over these four years, we think with joy and pride of what our class has accomplished. VVe regret the day of leaving which now approaches, for ii e shall never forget the many happy days we have spent at U. C. H. S. -L. J. B., '2o. Twentv Minutes to Nine J In order that you may see Udignityv, as it is expressed by the mighty Seniors of Nineteen Hundred and Twenty, 1'd like to take you with me into the Senior Classroom at twenty minutes to nine and have you remain there, if possible, until nine o'clock. Of ccurse you understand all classrooms are kept quiet in order that students desiring to study may do so. Tlhe first person you may notice as he comes in singing some merry tune, dancing a jig or raving about the terrible French lesson, is the Honorable Stanford Ely Cmore commonly known as Billj. If nothing interferes, Bill may take his seat, fthe fact that Bill might take his seat is questionablej. He opens his French book and begins, Oh! Bliss Todd, if you only knew how I lay awake last night and wondered how l'd get my Frenchn. fStartled somewhat at the plea he is makingj, f'Oh! Shoot! wish that lady would flunk me, would flunk me, would flunk me fiat-then-l'd have some ei-:cuse to quit school. Arthur lXlcDonald, as he enters, Heyl Billl Got your French ? VVhatl You ask me if l've got my French, you compliment me, you smooth-tongued villain, you. How dare you ask me such a question P replies Bill. Arthur, changing the subject, l'Heyg any a you guys bring your Hesperian money Timmy Lizberg: How much money do you want, Buzzwagon ? Oh, about enough to buy a couple a farmsf' replies Arthur. VVell, says Timmy, 'fcome 'ere and Iyll pay you off. In the meantime several of the pretty Senior girls have arrived, and they are all gathered in a group talking over the week-end scandal and hastily taking a last look at their supposedly shiny noses. The scene then shifts as Sis Heatie comes in, and with a voice full of meaning, loudly says, Good morning, everybody. Say! Ann Parker, did you go to Vancouver yesterday ? All of a sudden you think you hear a beautiful canary bird singing, and, turning around, you see that it's only Clifford Deliok blowing with all his breath on a small bird whistle that his -daddy gave him for his fifth Christmas anniversary. The clock now says five minutes to nine, and the next noise heard comes from the desk of our loving and patient classroom teacher as she raps on her desk and says, Now, boys and girls, it's time to settle down, and the next boy who speaks must go to the oflicef! Bill's final reply before settling down is, All right, Nlrs. VVoodard, turn your baby around and 1'll be good boyf' The gong now rings, and the scurrying about of the many Freshmen as they enter the room removes instantly the atmosphere of poise and the dignity that always accompanies the Seniors. -fllary 11Ilfllll'Z,L'Ilj'.

Oriental decorations and tapestry adorn the place. A dull red light envelopes all and incense is burning in various places. The Hindu Seer is peering into a crystal while by the door sits his servant apparently sleeping. A knock is heard. The Hindu does not move, but the servant jumps up and, opening the door, ushers three people CC. M., C. C., H. A. 1.1 into the room. Carl lkluender walks over and taps the Hindu lightly on the shoulder. The Hindu, aroused from his meditation, utters a snarl which slowly changes to a cunning smile. C. M.-Can you, by the aid of your crystal, tell the whereabouts of our old classmates? Hindu-I am Bolo Abezadegonhab, the immortal seer. By means of this all-seeing crystal everything which transpires in cosmic consciousness in this corrupt sphere called the world becomes present to my psychic being. C. M.-Can you bring our classmates before you now? Hindu-Klost certainly, my good man, most certainly! Speak not a word. Silence must reign. This immortal sphere answers to the eye of its master only when silence is uttermost. A thick mist fills the crystal. Ah, it grows clearer. I can now see undistinguishable objects. The view grows clear. Hidden things now become plain. I am transported to a wide open place-a country scene. Now I see a stout, middle-aged woman emerging from a large building. Over her head hangs a sign which reads 'ABeaver Creek Livestock lfxchangeu. Two men approach and one of them speaks to her. He finds out that she is Lanora Beatie, the owner of the festablishment. .On further con- versation she discovers that they are James Nlyers and Kenneth Renner, repre- sentatives of the Wireless Automatic lkiilker Co. Now a stable hand appears. He is instantly recognized by the salesmen as Lot Beatie. Still another surprise is in store for them when they are told that Ruby Long is the companyis vet- erinary surgeon. Blyers and Renner decide to inspect the barns and are astonished to see Bob and Alf Beatie feeding the cows. The light grows dimg it is gone. C. Ill.-I knew those Beaties would stick together. Hindu-Silence! A scene unfolds on the beach at VVaikiki.

Arthur Lindsley and Leslie Kellogg have accepted positions as living models for their special line of bathing costumes. CThe Hindu gazes for a moment in silence, while the patrons exchange winks.D Hindu-There is a changel. Now we are in China. An aroma pervades the atmosphere. It is that of dill pickles. Following the odor I come to a very fat man. He is Pierce VValker. Trailing after him comes his wife, IXIary Lucas, carrying a jar of pickles. These people are owners of the Chinese- American Pickle Condensery. The odor is too strong. I withdraw. Now I feel a. gust of dry wind. It blinds me. Tihe wind: has passed. I see a caravan slowly Winding its way across the sand. Alice Bierman is at the head of the procession. Her large camel is led by the famous guide, Arnold Fisher. Alice is a lady engineer who is contemplating digging a gigantic irrigation ditch across the Sahara Desert. Some of her assistants are lX'Iable Barnett, Zella McFarlane and Esther Davis, the financiers of the project. They obtained their money from the sale of tickets for the !XfIars-New York Trans- portation Co., which is owned and operated by lX'Iarion Barnum. VVe travel farther southward and on entering the jungle we find VVarner Hall and Reva Jones, married and comfortably settled down in their beautiful little home in Katanga, Central Africa. They have just finished a strenuous day's work preaching to the natives. CA knock is heard and is answered by the servant, who ushers in Gladys Trimble and lNIildred Drydenj. G. Y'.-We met Timmy Lizberg and he told us you were in town. At last we have found you! How are you? CINfIutual greetings! C. M.-What are you doing? I haven't seen you two since IQZO. M.

By the way, while in Germany we met Birdsell Ladd and Juanita Heerdt endeavoring to teach the Germans to sing f'lXIarching Through Georgia . H. A. J.-Hush, the seer is going to speak. Hindu-Something is Wrong. I am growing dizzy. Bly thots are staggered. I hear a ticking sound ............ GHILPHAGENJAZZHH!! CGhil arises and brings a bright colored piece of silk on a tray. Tfhe Hindu takes it and polishes the crystal. He lays the cloth back on the tray and the servant retreats to his corner with many 'bowsj Hindu--Ah, I have it! Mars is talking to the earth. The receiving wire- less operator is Elsie Clark. A group of people on INIars desire a recipe for the freckle cream which is sold exclusively by 1Iatilda Verding and Elsie Buse. Of whom do you wish to hear next? C. C.-Margaret Brady, Laura Brunner and Ross Scott. Hindu-Oh, yes, Margaret Brady and Laura Brunner are partners in an undertaking establishment in the South Sea Islands. Ross Scott is the hearse driver. H. A. J.-Where are Grace Hinkle, Bertha Hartke and Berneta Jack? HinduhBut a moment! These three girls are respectively President, Vice- President and Secretary of the Women's Bachelor Ensnaring Society. Silence! I hear a loud shouting. I see a city of tents. The noise is explained by the presence of Lorena Kleinsmith, who is spieler of the Gigantic Circus and IXIe- nagerie, owned and operated by Lillian Holmes. Inside the tent I see Naomi Lewis, the world famous dainty tight-wire walker. M. D.-Who are the clowns? HinduhThe clowns? They are Fern Yexley and Ethel VVilson. fThere is a general laugh which the Hindu checks with an impatient gesture.j The scenes change rapidly now, and there must be quiet so that I can follow the 0 SENIORS O Page40 movements in the sphere. tHe gazes again into the crystal.D The view shows the beautiful Skelleftee River near Stockholm, Sweden. There Blanche Swank and Neva Satterlee are running a home for homeless pigeons. They realize considerable profit from tourists who come to adopt their charges. Him!114The quiet pastoral scene fades from my vision. I hear the clatter of typewriters, the spilling of ink, the confused babble of forty different languages being spoken at once. It is the assembly of the League of Nations meeting at Greenland. In that noble group I see a face familiar to you. It is that of Bessie Hatton, who has been advanced to the position of eighty-first assistant secretary of the League of Nations. She beckons, and a page appears. He proves to be Stanford Ifly, who has realized the height of his ambition in run- ning errands for the eighty-first sub-secretary. CThe crystal begins to move of its own accord. It jumps about and cannot be controlled by the seer. He becomes excited, he cries out wildly. Then he calls the servant, Gilphagenjazz. The servant runs to his master and together they quiet the sphere. Bolo continuesxj I will now discover why the immortal globe acts so queerly. It is ex- plained, There are two men going up a lonely road which leads to the topr of Peach Nlountain near VVillamette. The men are your old friends, Richard Nixon and Cleo Howell. They glance furtively, over their shoulders from time to time as tho in fear of pursuit. VVhat do they fear? 'Ilhey are going to the moonshine still operated by Junia Smith on the top of the mountain. and they are afraid of Federal ofhcers. CAn explosion is heard outside--Nfary Hathaway comes running in.J IM. Il.-Oh! my dear Bolo, our new gas range has blown up and I think a piece of it has hurt our old family cook, Klelvin Gleason. A piece of the stove hit him on the head and then bounced out thru the ceiling. He is raving around like a madman. What shall we do? What shall we do? CShe wrings her hands., Hinrlu-Thatys all right, my dear, don't get excited. I know it will be a hard blow to us to lose our old cook: but perhaps he is all right.

They had thoroughly recovered from the shocks they had received when they were Freshmen, and now they could claim the respect and reverence of the Frosh as betitted the dignity of a Junior. The ollicers chosen to guide us successfully through were: President, George Dambachg Vice-President. Frances Blakeg Secretary and Treasurer, Helen Andreseng Class Editor, Freida Hicksg Sergeant- at-Arms, Everett Rosecrans. At the usual Hesperian Benefit thc Juniors furnished great amusement by their interpretation of the interlude from ulrlidsummer Night's l Dream. , George' Dambafh On Klarch 19, 1920, the Juniors gave a very successful Apron and Overall Party in the High School Auditorium. The girls were beautifully arrayed in wonderful creations of gingham and calico, while the boys added a brilliant touch of color to the scene with blue and gray over- alls. An enjoyable program, composed of songs and readings, was given early in the evening. llany exhilarating as well as pleasant games were played until the eats committee took pity on the poor hungry people who were eating up the decorations, and served supper. The inter-class championship baseball game between the Seniors and the Juniors was held on the baseball diamond north of the high school building on April 7, IQ2O. The Seniors, by a great streak of luck, won over the Juniors by the very narrow margin of 7 to 5. The Juniors won the first inter-class debate from the Seniors. but lost in the championship debate to the Sophomores by a vote of 2 to I. The team was composed of Frances Blake, Blanche Jones and Everett Rosecrans. Juniors who held places on the state debate team were Frances Blake and Eugene Vedder. lVIany of the Juniors, girls as well as boys, have taken active part in athletic events this year. ln the annual track meet held at Gladstone, quite a number of the Juniors competed for prizes. The Junior class also contributed some very sturdy boys for football, and, furthermore, nearly all that went in for football or baseball came away with either a brand new letter or an equally brand new stripe. That part of the baseball team which was lucky enough to possess a Junior proved that Juniors had some pep and they -all did their share. On the whole, the members of the Junior Class have spent a very profitable three years at O. C. H. S., and have acquired heaps of knowledge and enjoyed life mightily. They have responded loyally to any call for help and have contributed generously to all school activities. -F. Ill. H., '2 1.

We continued to astound the teachers by our unbelievable amount of knowledge of things that hes-including lessons. Under the guardianship of lllr. Arant, we held our first class meeting December 4, 1919, and elected the following officers: President, Kathryn Kirkg Vise-President, Gladys VVardg Sergeant-at Arms, Carl Johnson, and Editor, Nlabel Dawson. Cn December Sth the Sophomores made us happy by giving us a reception to introduce O. C. H. S. and her mazes to us. Several Freshmen were initiated into the untold delights of spaghetti a la angleworms. Everyone who atc of this delicious dish testified to its charms. Of course, it goes without saying that We all had a good time and were grateful to the Sophomores for teaching us how to enjoy ourselves. When the school gave an entertainment for the Hesperian, we gave quite appropriately the Story Hook Ralln from our old friend, lllother Goose. Sometime later our rivals, the Sophomores, challenged us to debate. 'llhe Fresh team consisted of lllarguerite Jackson, Klildred Hull and lllabel Dawson. Altho the judges gave the Sophomores a two to one decision. we were not at all discouraged, since one of the defeated debaters-illarguerite Jackson- helped win tlie cup in the county debate. XVe hope very much to beat the Juniors of next year some time in 1921. For a time we busied ourselves with school work, then on April 23I'll we gave a grand party. Contrary to precedent we made it a strictly Frosh'l affair. As our party proved to be very successful, we look forward with great Kathryn Kirk anticipation to others in the years to come.

There are still living some few old people who spent their youth in Oregon and who recall distinctly the conditions of pioneer life. They can make an evening around the winter fire extremely interesting for anyone who has an ear for such tales. An old pioneer who has long since died told the most gruesome of these tales: In the early days, a wagon train was crossing the plains. The Indians, because of mistreatment from other pioneers, were hostile, the provisions were entirely gone, the game for some reason had disappeared, and there was only one cartridge left in the whole company. All cattle except the few that were necessary to pull the train had been killed. VVhen the entire train was nearing starvation the men met and offered prayer for guidance and drew straws. The short straw was the death sentence. The members of the train, in their desperation, were going to eat one of their number. As a last resort, one of the men took the last cartridge, and, as luck would have it, killed a deer. This was the first one they had seen in months. Thus a train narrowly escaped conversion to cannibalism. Next to the hardships of overland travel and the hostility of the Indians, the greatest enemy the pioneers faced was the epidemic of cholera in ,j2. It attacked all alike and left few of the settlers in the West. Indian outbreaks made care for patients especially difficult. They were hidden behind logs and in the timber for protection. Any news or letters that came into the VVillamette Valley was brought by the wagon trains, the pony express or by vessels rounding the Horn. A letter from lX'Iissouri was a month in transit. VVhat is now the Southern Pacific Railway was first constructed through the valley, only fifty years ago, under the name of the Oregon and California Railroad. Among the things of great interest to Oregonians are the three versions of the first meeting of the Oregon Legislature. It may not be readily recalled that Oregon City was once the capital city of the State of Oregon, but such it was. One version of the first meeting is that it was held in a granary which belonged to the liiethodist Church. No one has offered any definite suggestion as to the location of the granary, but the church was located where the Portland Railway Light Sc Power Company has its car barns, at the upper end of llilain Street. 1 0 LITERARY O Page 55 The second and more popular version is that the meeting was held in what was known as 1XIagruder's house, owned by S. W. fVIoss, but occupied by a man named Rfagruder. This house was located on Fourth Street near hIain,, where Hawley's Paper Rfill is now situated. The third version is that an old house, still standing, near 1X'Iount Pleasant, was the scene of meeting. This is the most popular version, altho histories have been written quoting each of the three. Oregon City's first building was constructed at the falls by Doctor 1X'IcLoughlin in 1829. This was, if my arithmetic is correct, only ninety-one years ago. In the period from 1841 to 1846 great progress was made in Oregon City. The first school fCatholicj, the first church fhfethodistj, the first furniture factory and the first newspaper, The Oregon Spr'rta'ior, published by George Curry, were started during this period. It is interesting to note here that Oregon in 1846 passed an act prohibiting the sale and use of intoxicating liquors. This was the first prohibition act passed in the United States. The suspension bridge, built over the Willamette in 1889, has long been considered one of the- most remarkable engineering feats in the VVest. Although fishing seems to be good in the VVillamette today, some people still remember that about forty years ago the salmon run was so heavy that the fish ascended small creeks. They came in such large numbers that farmers threw them out of the streams with pitchforks and scattered them on the fields for fertilizer. Twenty years ago game was so plentiful within six miles of Oregon City that the farmers could stand on the back porch with a gun and shoot any one of ten deer which were eating the grain in the nearest field. Fried quail eggs not ten years ago was quite an ordinary thing. Fifteen years ago no one ever thot of killing chicken except in dead of winter, for grouse and quail were as easy to- get and more pleasing to the palate. These facts certainly make tl1e sportsmen of today long for the old days. Despite their close association with Oregon, the China Pheasants were un- known here until twenty pair were imported from the Orient by Judge Denny, whose widow is still living in Portland. Sixty years ago the country about the present city of NIolalla was inhabited by a tribe of Indians called hiolallas. The only means of communication with Oregon City was by trail either on foot or horseback. These Indians, about twice a month, would get on their ponies, ride to Oregon City and get drunk. On their way home they would tear along whooping, yelling and emitting blood- curdling screeches. The following amusing incident is told of these war whoops: The Nfolallas had been to town for their monthly Hspreeu and were riding' home. Two young women became greatly frightened, and altho it was after' midnight, jumped out of bed and ran. After running a mile, they came to an old l1SClICl0l'yS house. They routed him out of bed and told him that their whole family had been murdered by the Indians. There is no written record of an Indian battle which was fairly well known- to the old pioneers. The Indians from the Upper Willamette united against a union of Indians from the Lower Willamette and Columbia Rivers. In full war array, paint and feathers, they met in one of the fiercest, bloodiest and hence the noisiest battles ever reported. The scene of the battle is doubtful, but the general belief is that it occurred on the north bank of the Clackamas River near its mouth. Large numbers of arrow heads found there confirm the belief. A transformation from these conditions to the present has come within the lifetime of one person, although to many young people Clackamas county seems to have existed unchanged for centuries. -Alfred Bernie, '20. 0 - LITERARY --0 Page 56 Places of Interest in Oregon City Oregon is noted for its scenery and some of the most beautiful spots are in and around Oregon City. At the upper end of town are the VVillamette Falls, which furnish the power for several mills and an electric plant. The falls, which are between fifteen and twenty feet high, are shaped somewhat like a horseshoe. There is always so much spray flying from these that you cannot come near them without being drenched. The sun shining on this spray turns it into all colors of the rainbow. The lVillamette River is noted for its salmon fishing. Every year from the first of April until late in lvlay there are great crowds of people fishing here. Some people come clear from the northeastern states every year for this sport. This is one of the very few places where salmon are caught with a hook and line. The Clackamas River flows into the VVillamette just below Oregon City. It is not a very large stream, but is very swift. lt cuts its way through moun- tains and high hills and in several places forms beautiful falls. These are so far back in the mountains that few people ever see them. There are several beautiful parks near Oregon City, a few of which are Canemah Park, Schnoer's Park and Chautauqua Park. Canemah Park is situated on top of a high bluff, which is right above the falls. Half of the park is level and clear and is used for baseball and football grounds. The other half is covered with majestic firs. ln the summertime it is cool and inviting and furnishes a splendid picnic ground. Schnoer's Park is across the river and farther up than Canemah Park. It is near the mouth of the Tualatin and extends down to the river, where there is a splendid swimming hole. Swings, rings and other playground equipment make this park very popular. Chautauqua Park is near the Clackamas River, about a mile from Oregon City. It is like a regular forest. Enormous trees shade the moss-covered ground where wild flowers grow very profusely. ln the middle of the park is a small lake, with water lilies and other water plants growing in it. ln the summer- time this park is used as a Chautauqua grounds. All the Chautauqua speakers and entertainers say they look forward to coming to this beautiful park during the summer. Two of the greatest pulp and paper plants in the Northwest are situated at Oregon City. These mills employ over two thousand men and turn out at least three hundred thousand pounds of finished paper each twenty-four hours. The kinds of paper made include tissue, wrapping and newspaper, paper towels. fruit wrappers and paper for bags. These are shipped to points thruout the United States and the Orient. The paper is made by one of two processes, the wood, or grinder process, or the sulphite process. The abundance of water power obtainable from the falls makes the location of these mills desirable. One of the most important manufacturing plants in Oregon City, or, l had better say, in the State of Oregon, is the Oregon City VVoolen Nlills. lt is sit- uated in the southwestern part of town on the Willamette River. The water power which is necessary to run the factory is obtained from the Willamette Falls. It is said that the moderate climate of the VVillamette Valley is well adapted to the manufacture of woolen goods, therefore Oregon City an ideal site for a woolen mill. The woolen goods are advertised extensively- by salesmen 1 K o-il--L1'1'1zRA1aY 11-Mio Page 57 and also by The Sfrlzlrdrzy Iirwzizzg Postf' which is delivered all over the United' States and Canada. Orders come in from all parts of North America, and about two million hve hundred thousand dollars Q3Q2,500,000, worth of woolen goods is shipped out every year. The line of goods which is manufactured most ex- tensively consists of maclcinaws, overcoats, flannel shirts, blankets, bathrobes and Indian robes.

It was Anne calling, so surely it must be something exciting. Betty's churn never had a plan that wasn't. Jack told me that Jones' Hill had a fine crust on it for tobogganing and he said we might take his toboggan after school. We'll get Rose and Grace to go, too. Let's hunt them up now so we won't have to waste any time when the last bell ringsf' Betty and Anne found the other two girls, but they had other plans for the afternoon. So, after a futile effort to find anyone among their friends who could go, the two chums decided to go alone. After school the girls started out across the fields on their snowshoes toward Jones' Hill. Behind them they pulled Jack's big toboggan. When the chums reached the top of the hill, each tried to persuade the other to steer on the first ride down. There was a reason for this, for the one who sat in front would get all the snow when the toboggan took the jump at the foot of the hill. But, as usual, Betty gave in to Anne and took the place in front. VVith a little push Anne gave the toboggan the start it needed to send it over the gentle slope to the top until it reached the sharper incline and the jump below that. It gradually gathered speed until, with a rush, it started down the big hill. The girls were enjoying themselves immensely and having a real thrill out of their ride. But when they looked down the slope still steeper ahead and at the jump, fully five feet high, they began to be just a little frightened. The toboggan was fairly runningf away with itself when it came to the jump at the foot of the hill. It took this like a whirlwind but landed smoothly and rightside up several feet out in the field at the bottom of the jump. So far everything would have been all right if the field at the foot of the hill hadn't been so icy. VVhen they struck the glary surface, Betty gave up all attempts at steering. Instead of slowing up when it reached the level ground, the toboggan Hew faster than ever over the ice. At the corner of the field they just barely missed hitting the old barn and in the lower field the stubble, which stuck up above the snow, stopped them so suddenly that the toboggan overturned. spilling the girls. They picked themselves up, and shook the snow off. Betty's 'fOh, Anne! fully expressed their feelings. Perhaps the tobogganing was a little more exciting and the crust a little better than Betty and Anne had expected, for, after their one slide they started homeward, fully convinced that they had had enough for one day. That evening when her brother asked how the tobogganing was, Anne in- formed him, with not a little sarcasm, that the crust was certainly fine. VVhy don't you try it tomorrow? she added. Jack laughed, perhaps he had had his own experience with that very same crust. -Zll11r'ia'1z Cole.

They are often extended to great length. The Northwest region of the United States, on account of its extensive natural scenery, is extremely rich in these Indian legends. The hero is always an ideal, combining intelligence with benevolence. The hero of this type seems never to have been a. human being. The Indians looked to the animals to find a personality around which myths could be woven. So 4'Tellapus , the God among the Clatsops and Chinooks, was the idealized -coyote, and from his doings arose their myths. Their chief God and Creator was the Great Spirit , who lived in the sun. The transformation of erring men into rocks is very common in the native legends, for instance: Near the mouth of Columbia, some tall rocks, the most prominent of which is that upon which Tillamook Light is placed, were originally a man, Woman and children, who, contrary to the direction of Tellapus, attempted to walk on the water. Pillar Rock, some twenty-hve miles up the Columbia River, is a man changed to stone for attempting to walk on the water. The stains on a rock near Cathlamet Point are the tears of Tellapus, who there lamented the hardness of heart of the people whom he had instructed and tried to help. Farther up the Columbia, Rooster Rock and Castle Rock are said to be two chiefs who wooed the same girl, but were both kept in suspense until they quarreled. Tellapus punished them by changing them into rocks, separated by the river. The girl was punished by being changed into the Horsetail Falls, ever escaping but with her beautiful hair forever hanging behind her. lVIany legends have been circulated in regard to the formation of the Cascades of the Columbia. The idea of a bridge spanning the stream was very attractive to the Indians, and the novel, The Bridge of the Godsf' was founded on this legend. The most complete Indian story of the formation of this bridge was told by an old Klickatat Indian who lived in the VVillamette valley. HTHE BRIDGE OF THE oops In the earliest days when man was created, all was paradise. The G1'eat Spirit or Sun had provided all that was needed. Hunger, cold and want were unknown. lVIan's home was to the eastward, but after the first children were born to man, quarrels arose between them as to the ownership of the land. The older ones wished it all, and the younger ones naturally objected. Then the Great Spirit decided to move them to a new land. While they were asleep he brought them to a great country, divided by high mountains. The land sloped eastward and westward from this chain. VVhen he had brought the sons to the top of these mountains, he told them to shoot an arrow in the sky and then to follow the flight the arrow took, either east or west. One arrow fell eastward over the country of the Klickitats and one fell westward over the valley of the VVillamette, for this dividing chain of mountains was the Cascades. Each followed his arrow and became a chief in his country. Between them were the mountains and the Columbia River, but the river was to be a sign of peace. As long as it flowed they were to be friends, and for a further sign of friendship the Great Spirit placed across the river a bridge. The people multiplied in both sections, but became corrupt, and then for 0 I,I'1'lERAl'tYi-i-1-i-0 Page .61 the first time the favor of the Great Spirit was withdrawn. The sun ceased to shine and cold and snow appeared. The people then began to seek for fire but found none. There was one very old woman who had kept the original purity, and as they suspected she had fire in her lodge, they attempted to get it. But. though she was. so old, the wontan escaped, and the Indians' best runners could not overtake her, they were so stiffened with cold. Tlhen they began to repent and prayed the Great Spirit to forgive them and grant them fire. He heard their praper and called to the woman to give the people fire and promised that for her faithfulness he would grant her anything she wished. She asked for youth and beauty'and promised that if these were given her, should would establish herself on the bridge, l'Tom:iniwus Illahee , and there keep forever burning a fire which should be a reminder of the goodness of the Great Spirit. The people were very willing to promise to be good if fire were given them. and the old woman, whose name was Loo-wit, built the fire upon the bridge and kept it burning to give the people warmth. LEGEND OF MT. Hooo, MNT. ADAM'S AND MT. ST. HELENS Loo-wit was changed to a beautiful young woman. She had many suitors but there were two whcm she favored, WVe-ye-ast from the southward and Klickitat from the northward. She could not decide between them, but kept them in suspense awaiting her answer. Tliey became very jealous of each other, and quarreled until their relatives took the matter up, and war and death were as prevalent as before. This made the Great Spirit very angry. He returned and broke down the bridge, which had lieen a sign of peace. He then transformed the chiefs into two mountains. VVe-ye-ast became IXIt. Hood, and Klickatat become NIL Adams, which for years continued to shoot fire and rocks at one another. Loo-wit, who was also to blame, was changed into lXIt. St. Helens. All were to be forever fringed with snow and ice and half the year was to be winter even in the valleys as punishment for their disobedience. Loo-wit, however, having been promised eternal youth and beauty, still retains these, and is yet the most beautiful of all mountains. THE FALLS OF THE VVILLAMETTE Nlany years before the white man came into the west, there came a boy, Tallupus, to the VVillamette Valley and found the people starving. Tallupus contrived in different ways to help the people catch the salmon from their river. It was full of Hsh, but the Indians could not spear enough to keep their tribe supplied. At last he thought of making a waterfall or 'fTumtum , for the falling of water reminded the Indians of the heart-beat, which they called Htumtumn. Tallupus came down the river, all the while looking for a place to make his Htumtumw. He attempted to make it at the mouth of Puddin River, but it proved unsuccessful, so he left there only a gravel bar. Still determined, Tlallupus came farther down the river and built his Htumtuml' just below Rock Island, where it remains today. VVhile making the falls Tallupus made a fish ladder so that the salmon could still get above the falls but would have to jump. In this way the Indians were able to spear enough fish to keep their tribe from starving. Today the 'ftumtumu is still falling, the salmon are still jumping the ladder, and the Paleface people still admire the marvelous work of Tallupus. ,H if sk 14 The Skookums were awful female monsters that the Indians feared. Their voices could be heard in the deep forests when the trees creaked or the panthers screamed. They correspond quite closely to the Norman idea of Nightmares, the mythical but dreaded beings that haunted the regions of sleep and are still spoken of in connection with very bad dreams. 0 L I TPE BFA R Y 0 age 12 THE STONE FISH A great tribe flourished on the right bank of the VVillamette where one man was chief. One day a great monster, a Skookum, came from the mountains and devoured all the people but the wife and small son of the chief. These fled from the monster. VVhen the son was well grown and strong the mother took him back to the village of his father and showed him his father's axe and arrows. liven while they gazed upon them, the great Skookum came down and began to talk to the boy. The boy was not afraid of the monster but contrived how to kill her. Pretending to show his strength, he lifted his axe and struck into a log, partly splitting it. Then he said to the Skookum, Ulf you are strong as you say, put your fingers into this crack and hold it open while I take another blow with my axe. The Skookum, flattered and boastful, did as she was asked, but the boy at once withdrew his axe and the log closed upon her fingers, holding them fast. Then the boy easily slew her. The son wished then to see his father and the rest of the tribe, so he took his fatherls arrow and shot it into the air, saying: f'VVhen this arrow falls, let the tribe come back . The arrow fell, and immediately the chief and his tribe appeared, paddling up the river in their canoes. The chief, when he saw his son, did not know him, but struck him across the face, crying: YVho are you and what are you doing here ? The boy was so grieved -by this that he went to the falls, where he sat down and wept. His tears fell so fast that they made holes' in the rocks under the falls. After this outburst of feeling, he decided to turn into a fish, and so became a salmon and sought a resting place up the river. He continued his journey to the Santiam River, flowing down from the Cascades. This suited him, and here he entered. But he was changed by Tellapus into a rock, having the shape of a fish, and was placed near the mouth of the river, so as to guide the salmon to their spawning grounds. So the salmon that pass the Willamette Falls never stop till they reach the Santiam, where, seeing the stone fish, they flap their tails as a salute to the rock and pass on to the gravel bars of the upper waters. T'he Indians were deeply impressed by the natural scenery and tried by their legends to account for it. They thought that there must be a personal God of great size and power to accomplish these changes. This accounts for the stories of transformations. THE SENTINEL OF THE VVILLAMETTE, Nlany centuries ago there lived on the banks of the Willamette River a very powerful tribe of Indians called the VVillamettes . During the season of the 'ffalling leaves and Hbig snowsu they fished and hunted at the headwaters of the river, and as the budding of the trees heralded the coming of spring, they packed their skin tepees and bows and arrows and loaded them into their bark canoes and floated down the river. Their spring camping place was situated about two miles above the Hbig falls and at the foot of a precipice near the edge of the river. During the day the men and boys paddled down the river and below the falls fished for salmon. The women and children stayed at home and hunted the bulbs of the camas lily which they ground and used for flour in their bread. The VVillamettes were the happiest and the most peaceful of all the tribes. The squaws were industrious workers and the men were good huntsmen and fishermen, so they were always well fed and clothed. The chief of the VVillamettes was greatly beloved by his tribe and also O LITERARY 0 Page G3 loved and honored by his neighbors for his kindness, generosity and worthy character. ef One year while the Willamettes were at their sp-ring camp their beloved chief fell sick and within a few days his soul floated up to the Great Spirit. The neighboring tribes soon heard of the death and journeyed to where he was, in order to pay their last respects to their loved friend. One night as the great warriors of the tribes sat around the canoe in which the chief was laid, an explosion was heard at the top of the hill. lt was accom- panied by tremendous flashes of light, and then all was quiet and dark. As night raised her hovering wings and the rays of light made it possible to see, they found that their chief had disappeared. But at the top of the precipice where the light shown, stood a great stone face, the image and likeness of their beloved chief, Willamette. They believed that their God hadtplaced the face of their good chief before them to guide their lives in the paths of righteousness. To this day, HThe Sentinel of the VVillamette', gazes over the valley, and influences the destinies and lives of the peaceful inhabitants of the valley. The teachers up at our old High, Are trained by Arant to be shy, In stature they are great and small, Also they are short and tall, Some are stout and some are lean, Some are good and some are mean. Haley's short and Todd is fat, They look queer at their noon-hour chat. The whole school Zimmerman tries to run, In doing this she has no fung King and Tatro are all the go, At noon you'd think they were a cheap side show, Wagner is the Juniors' friend, Their haughty spirit she sure does bendg For sewing and cooking therels Wheeler and Parr, They look like angels.

For several years such a building has been the dream of all the students and in- structors, especially those who believe in all-'round development. There are several things which have prevented the construction of the Gym- nasium whicli was planned last fall. Chief among these is the lack of sut- ficient funds. It is true that thirty-five thousand dollars is on hand to pay for the erection of this building. But in the meantime the price of materials has gone up to such an extent that to erect a building large enough and of first class material is out of the question. A building could be constructed for thirty-five thousand dollars, but nearly everything that would make it a first class gymnasium would have to be either cheapcned or omitted. It is true a smaller building could be erected for the o EIJITOHIAL----1-0 Page G5 money, but it would be too small for any practical use as a gymnasium, in a high school approximating four hundred students. The foresight of the School Board of Oregon City has prevented us from getting a gymnasium that would be either too small or poorly equipped. They realize that such a building is to be permanent and must be planned to accommo- date the needs of the future. There are two Ways in which the present emergency may be met. One is to bring the matter before the taxpayers again and ask for a small additional sum. The other is for some one, who is blessed with more of this Worldls goods than he needs, to donate a few thousand to this worthy cause. It is a good chance for someone to make his name immortal with the future students of Oregon City. The need of a gymnasium is just as great, if not greater, than before. The late war certainly brought out the shortcomings of our educational system in this respect. Fully fifty per cent of those rejected by the army were rejected because of physical shortcomings that systematic training and correct exercise could have overcome. Of what use would the most highly trained intellect be if it were encumbered by a weak body? The most useful and efficient citizens require physi- cal endurance and stamina just as surely as they require mental training. There- fore, if the students of Oregon City High School are to enter life fully equipped, a gymnasium is an absolute necessity. PHYSICAL TRAINING 'lVVho,s got my shoes? How can I dress, someone lcopped' my suit? Say, have you kids seen my middy? There goes that whistle and I'm not near ready! These are the familiar words heard every time one of the girls' classes in physical training is preparing for class. Physical training in the school is a new feature this year. Though it has been nicknamed Physical Torture . every student is anxious for the class day to come. Every boy and girl in high school is compelled to take at least two forty-five-minute periods of physical training a week, unless excused by a certifi- cate from a physician. The different classes have worked up some interesting games and some very exciting inter-class games have been played and are now being planned for the near future. One can readily see the advantages that each student has gained from this training. Both boys and girls walk and stand more erect and show more 'fpepn and enthusiasm in school. Another result of this training is illustrated by the score in the recent track meet. Oregon City made hardly any showing in the 1916 meet. But this year we were able to win the County League cup. Tlhe girls, also, who were always considered ineligible in sports in the past, have stepped into the foreground since taking physical training. Their work proved to be one of the most interesting features of the track meet of llay 8. lNIany people were doubtful about the wisdom of compulsory physical trainingg but after a yearis trial of it, they fully realize its value. 0-------EDITORIAL O Page GG There is a saying: Expect nothing of those who promise a great deal.'l The members of the Hesperian Staff have tried to be quiet so that you might honestly expect something. We wish to thank the faculty, the students of O. C. H. S. and our business managers who, by their loyalty and co-operation, have made this issue possible. We earnestly hope that this annual has fulfilled the expec- tations of our readers. Take it and ,try its worth. NVhere we have fallen short, we ask forbearanceg where we have succeeded, our reward lies in your enjoyment. --The Staff. Qi' Q' Q' EVENING. The last lingering light of day Is hovering over the hill.

In our first game F ,Lb G0 Hillsboro High School fell to O. C. H. S. by the score of lj to Q. LJQF Q The boys put up a wonderful fight in this game. The following S559 ' s Week we were again victorious, defeating Canby 24 to 6. After our two victories the team journeyed to Salem, where we were defeated by Salem 7 to 0, in one of the hardest football games ever played by a High School team. In this game several of our players were injured. .This prevented the team from playing up to standard the rest of the season. After our first defeat the team played Hillsboro a return game and was again victorious. The following week we were defeated by Vancouver High School I3 to 0. The game was played in a sea of mud and as several of our players were out on account of injuries, the result was not long in doubt. The team journeyed to Corvallis, where we were defeated bv the team which later claimed the valley championship. In the last game of the season, against our old rival, Estacada, we were defeated 7 to 0. Thus ended the 1919 football season. Though we were defeated four times, the boys fought every minute during the games. Our line held like a 'gstone wallu. Raymond Califf, our Sorrel-top halfback, made several sensational runs, after intercepting passes. Our two big tackles, Captain-elect Vierhus and Hugh Harbison, played a consistent game. Captain VVilson and f'NIike Gleason put up a fine defense. Arthur lWcDonald in the backfield made several long end runs which always netted considerable yardage. Too much credit cannot be given to the help we received from the boys who came out every night in order to give the first team practice. lllonroe Harbison, Wilbur Criswell, James Pew1ee', Sullivan, Roscoe Locke' Ralph lWcCoy and Birdsell Ladd were some of the boys who rendered invaluable aid to the first team. It looks now as if Oregon City High School would have a wonderful team rfext year. VVith eight letter-men back and the wealth of material in school, the prospects for next season are very promising. So here's to the coming season, and may it be even more successful than the past one! ATHLETICS 0 Page T0 Captain Gordon t Fat J Wilson-Center. Fat played his second year at renter and snapped the ball in every play we started, He is a hard fighting aggressive man on the line and proved a stone wall on defense. llis hard tackling and ability to break through the enemy made it next to impossible for the opposing teams to gain through the line. Fat is ambitious to play tat-kle next year and it is certain that his weight and aggressiveness will make him as good a man in this position as has been seen in these parts for some time. Leonard t Mike l Davis-Ilalfback, - Mike played a Wonderful game at halfbaek against Hillsboro. In favt he was the star of the backfield until he saw too many stars and was out the rest of the season on at-count of injuries. Mike will be with us again next year for his last year of football. He is a speedy, hard-hitting halfbaek and will be the nucleus for our 1924! backfield. Louis t Louie J Vierhusgillackle, Capt. elect. Our big tackle, Lou Vierhus, showed his grit by com- ing out for football this year after ret-overing from a broken leg received in practice last year. Lou has a very loving nature and was constantly seen in the but-kfield oi' the opposing team. Very little yardage was rnade through his side of the line: and Lou repeatedly blocked plays whit-h had started around the end. But we think l.on's chief claim to glory should come from the fart that he is the son of the best cook in the county. Hugh t Dutch J Harbison-Tackle. Manager eleet. Although Dutch earned his letter in football for the first time this year he outplayed his opponent in every game this season. Dutch fights every minute and his alertness kept many a man from breaking through our' line. In several of our games Dutch surprised the oppos- ing teams by Hspearing' passes out of the ozone. XVith the experience he has gained this year and his tackling ability he may earn a plat-e in the backfield for the coming year. 0 -liATHLETICS -f----O Page 71 Arthur Q McDougaI J McDonald-Quarterback. Art changed from kilts to football togs just in time to open the season. From the speed he showed on the football field it must have taken a fast Hun to keep out of his way: and if Art shot as he straight-armed this season there are doubtless many Germans who had no time to say Kamerad. He was our greatest ground gainer this year and his position will be a difficult one to fill next year. Robert C Bob J Beatie-Halfbaek. Although handicapped on account of injuries ibut a few broken bones meant nothing to a sailorj, Bob lost very little time at halfback. He played thecomplete game at Corvallis While suffering from two broken ribs. He was very good at tackling and he could also heave the pigskin to the end when called upon to do so. XVe will surely miss Bob next fall for we do not know where he can find his successor. Raymond C Red J Califf-Halfback. Red played a steady, consistent halfback and end this year. His ability to catch passes was remarkable. In the Salem game and again in the Corvallis game he intercepted passes which netted fifty yards in each case. He also used his toe to advantage this year. Red will be back again, for which we will be duly thankful. Sidney C Sid j Warne r--Guard. Sid played his second year of football with O. L . H. S. this year. He has the weight and also the fight and made good use of both. He broke tllrough the oppos- ing line and stopped plays before they really got started. He fights every minute of a game and stopped many line plunges headed his way. Sid graduates this year and we will surely miss him on the gridiron. ATHLETICS O Page T2 William C Bill J Rutherford--Left End. Bill broke into the ,fzqame at end during the session with Canby and held down the left extremity for the re- mainder of the season. He played a strong game and few end runs ever got past him. Bill will be with us next year and should be a Valuable man on the line. George Damback-Halfbaek. George played a consistent game at halfbavk. Though not a spec'tac-ular player he was always there when the pigskin was handed him. George did most of our passing this year, and is as aveurate with a football as Charlie Chaplin is with a custard pie. George will be bac-k again next year and we expect great things from him. Jesse WJ essie J Shannon-Tackle. Rig Jess played his first year of football with O. C. H. S. this year but he ac-ted like a veteran. .Tess grabbed them low, and spilled tackle plunges time and time again. He eaught many tackle passes which always netted con- siderable yardage. In one of the Hillsboro games the opposing tackle proceeded to tivkle Jess's ribs. Jess ob- jeetedg the result was he didn't repeat. Howard C Howdy j MassfRight End. Howard played a good game at right end throughout the season. He was a demon on defence and often broke up plays started through the eenter of the line, His work in the Salem game will long: be remembered by those who were on the side lines. Howard will be with us again next year. 0---ee? ATHLETICS ----e-0 Page T3 Leslie 4 Les J Kellogg---Guard. After serving in the army for two years Les re- turned to O.C.

The first game, against Klilwaulcie, brought the players together for the first time. O. C. H. S. Won the game by the score of 4. to 2. f'Redy' Califf, our star twirler, struck out twenty-one nien in this game. The following week the team journeyed to lfstacada, where we met our old rivals. Oregon City kept the lead, 3 to 2, until the disastrous seventh inning, when Estacada scored 7 runs. They scored again in the eighth inning, winning the game by the score I2 to 3. The following VVednesday we played West Linn, winning hy the one-sided score of 24. to 12. Coach Tatro put his team through hard training the following nights. This training showed when 0--if ATHLETICS -i--0 Page T6 we defeated Estacada the following week by the score of 8 to 5. Califf pitched a shut-out game and the result was never in doubt. After the victory over Estacada the team journeyed to lylolalla, where it was defeated I2 to 5. lylolalla scored three runs in the first inning and four runs in the sixth. Califf struck out twelve men in this game. The County Championship is still in doubt, but O. C. H. S. stands a very good chance, because of the victory over Estacada. Captain Harbison, at first, has played a consistent game all season. In the lviolalla game he got five hits out of five times at the bat. Raymond Califf, our red-topped twirler, has pitched excellent ball all season. In the lililwaukie game he made the remarkable record of twenty-one strike-outs. Austin Locke at second and Kenneth Swanson at short stop are playing a good game. Wilbrur Criswell has blossomed forth as a first class catcher. Niuch of the success of the team this year is due to boys like John Bennett, Lydon Bingham, Pewee Sullivan, Raymond Howell and Carl Johnson, who were out every night for practice but did not win their letters. The whole team is playing excellent ball. and it looks now as if we should win the County Championship and bring another cup home to Oregon City High. Athletic Association The first meeting of the Athletic Association was held Sept. 30, IQIQ, for the purpose of electing officers. Klr. Arant presided at the meeting. The fol- lowing officers were elected: A ' President ........ .... H ugh Harbison Vice-President ...... . . .Arthur lNIcD0nald Secretary-Treasurer ..................... Nlaude Lageson The following members of the Board of Control were elected from the student body: Louis Vierhus and Douglas King. Faculty advisors that were elected were hir. L. A. King and lylr. B. If. Tatro. Board of Control meetings are held every VVednesday. At these meetings. over which Mr. Arant presides, business relating to athletics is taken up. After the ofhcers had been elected a movement was launched to make mem- bership in the Athletic Association one hundred per cent. Students were appointed in different roll-rooms to collect the money for membership. As a result, the Athletic Association soon became one hundred per cent in membership. ' A committee composed of Kiaude Lageson, Gordon VVilson and Hugh Harb- ison was appointed to arrange for a booster meeting which was held Oct. 30, IQI9. At this meeting great enthusiasm was shown for the association and the ap- proaching football game. The association is still carrying on the good work started this year. oelzy?

Coach King took the following hoys: illonroe Harhison, Leonard Davis, Everett Rosecrans. Austin Locke, Leslie Kellogg, Ray- mond Howell, Reed Jagger, George Damhack and Nlelvin Dunmire. The competition was very keen and none of-the hoys placed in the finals except Austin Locke, who took fourth place in the pole vault with a jump of IO feet.

From among the number of students who tried out, Katherine Long, Eugene Vedder, Carl Nluender and Alfred Heatie were chosen to make up the two teams. The affirmative fell to Eugene Vedder and Katherine Long. The question decided upon was 'lResolved, that the United States should pass a law prohibiting all immigration to the United States for a period of not less than Eve years. Oregon City soon became the county champion by defeating llolalla and Colton. This entitled our debaters to meet Salem. Salem showed her su- periority by defeating both of Oregon City's teams two to one. Nlueh time was spent on the development of the team and great efforts were made by the members of the teams themselves. hflaterial was gathered from the State Library and nearer libraries and strong arguments were worked out by both teams. It certainly was not from lack of effort that Oregon City failed to win the State -Championship. H 0 .Xf:1'IVITIES 0 Page559 SO PH OBIORE 'I'EA1X1 THE FRESHIVIAN-SOPHOMORE DEBATE This debate on the Capital Punishment question was the liveliest debate ever held in High School. Vim, vigor, pep and punch were combined with good argument and fine delivery to rouse great enthusiasm in the whole school. Gor- don Hannaford, Ruth Oswald and Dorothy Swallow represented the Sopho- mores, and lfable Dawson, llarguerite Jackson and lllildred Hull upheld the Freshmen. Both classes supported their teams by splendid rootings, first one side, then the other, made the Auditorium ring with class yells. It was a hard- won Eight, but the Sophomores carried off the victory. A two to one decision was rendered. THE JUNIOR-SENIOR DEBATE This was the Hrst of this year's class debates and was a good starter for the others. Tlhe ouestion was and still is a current one-the railroads. The question as read was: Resolved, that the railroadsshould return to their pre-war status. The Junior team, consisting: of Frances Blake, Everett Rosecrans and Blanche Jones, won for the negative. The Senior team, Katherine Long, Harold Casto and Carl Nlucnder, put up a good argument, but the decision went the other way, two to One. THE SOPHOMORE-JUNIOR DEBATE The winners of the two inter-class debates met Nlondav, the Ioth of Nfay. to decide on the school championship. Three debaters were allowed for each team, and the time for each speaker was set at six and a half minutes. The question was, HResolved, that the United States should establish a protectorate over llexico similar to that established over the Philippinesf' The aflirmative fell to the Sophomores, and Gordon Hannaford, Dorothy Swallow and Ruth Oswald upheld their side mightily. The Junior team, Frances Blake, Everett Rosencrans and Blanche Jones, put up a strong argument. The decision went to the Sophomores, but it was one of the closest debates ever held here. Two votes- were for the Sophomores, while the Juniors got the remaining one. O-A- - ACTIVITIES -Qlo Page 90 THE COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP DEBATE lllollala, Canby, llilwaukie, Estacada and Oregon City entered into the High School Debate Contest proposed and organized by Clackamas County School League. However, owing to various unknown reasons, Estacada and lklollala withdrew from the lists, leaving the other three to compete for the cup. Oregon Cityys affirmative, consisting of Gordon Hannaford and lXIarguerite Jackson, debated Canbyls negative at Oregon City, while our negative team, VVoodson Smith and Ruth Oswald, debated at llflilwaukie. Oregon City won the honors at both places, three to nothing at llilwaukie and two to one at Oregon City. The question was, Resolved, that the United States Government should pur- chase, own and operate all interstate railwaysfl The cup now peacefully resides in Oregon City High School building, where all hope it may remain for several years, at least. THE ARMY ESSAY CONTEST This essay contest was very popular and Oregon City got into it in her characteristic style-with both feet on the ground. Over a dozen students wrote essays on the HAdvantage of an Enlistment in the LY. S. Armyf' Lot Beatie took the first prize, Eugene Vedder second, Alfred Beatie third, while Helen Tooze and Clifford DeBok tied for fourth. The prizes were decidedly worth while, as the awards devoted to first place alone totaled about forty dollars.

The purpose of the club is to promote efficiency among the students who belong to it. It stands for high ideals, pluck and perseverance. lr believes that there is nothing like flpluggingu for what you get. In order to become a social member a student is required to make twenty-live words a minute on the typewriter. In order to become an actvie member a student must make forty words. The rules of the International Typewriter Association govern all tests. The student making the best record is entitled to the olbce of president. Ar the present time Carlotta Pace is president and Arnold Fisher is secretary and treasurer. The best record made this year was by Carlotta Pace. She came within two words of making fifty-five words, which is all that is required to make a gold medal. Through the efforts of the Efficiency Club, Bliss Stollnitz. world champion ty pist, was induced to come to the high school on April 20, IQZO. For forty-five minutes she demonstrated speed, rhythm and accuracy on the typewriter. She wrote while she was here, one hundred and sixty words in one minute, with- out an error. Social events held by the lfflieiency Club this year have been a banquet held on December 23, the successful initiation of twenty new members on April 13, and a delightful Highway trip to Hood River on Klay 22.

C. H. S., proved to be a very decided success. Tlhose who took the good advice, Come early and avoid the rush, succeeded in finding seats, but those who did not heed the timely bit of counsel took the consequences and stood up. The Freshmen came forth with a comedy take-off from the famous Hlllother Goose Nursery Rhymes, entitled lVIother Goose Story Book Ballf' Some very clever acting was brought into the limelight and the upperclassmen looked upon the Freshmen with a little more understanding when they saw what wonderful talent was hidden under each beautifully green exterior.

Juliet was so gracefully boyish and Romeo was such a gallant Romeo that one nearly imagined that he was seeing the real Shakespearian tragedy. But to cap the climax, Juliet, beautiful Juliet, drank a bottle of Bevo to the bitter dregs and died. This scene was so seriously tearful that even the moon changed its usually smiling face to one of woe. The members of the cast were: . Douglas King ........ ..........

The admiring crowd had laughed at the mirth-provoking plays that had been presented. but they were held spellbound now to see such wonderful beauty at'such an un- expected moment. The girls who put on this skilfully carried-off play were: ,Urcil Armstrong T Elsie Buse P.. . . .Spring Lanora Beatie l Fern Yexley 1 Klary Hathaway P biary Lucas i Carlotta Pace T Neva Satterlee P . . . ....

A committee of girls from each of the four classes sold candy during the intermissions and brought in a tidy little sum of nearly 530.011 The entire proceeds of the evening, including the sale of candy and tickets, amounted to S2I3.00.

GLEE CLUB CONCERT At the concert given by the Glee Club and Orchestra, April 30, IQZO, the members of both organizations did their best to make the entertainment the success that it was. The Glee Club Director, llrs. Lawrence, received compli- ments from every direction upon the wonderful melodious voices of the members of the Glee Club. Anyone who heard the concert would surely agree with the complimenters in saying that the singing was beautiful. Both the director and the club members have practiced and worked hard all year to make the Glee Club what it is, and we will all dislike to see the Senior class leave, because it will take some very worthy members from the club.

VVoodward of the Oregon City High School faculty. and let us say right here and now, that we are all very proud to have such a talented person as a member of our very own faculty.

O S 0 C I E T Y 0 Page 99 The Senior Party JANUARY 23, 1920. YVith their entertainment, wit and good humor, the Seniors furnished to the faculty and the underclassmen an evening full of excitement and adventure. The atrocious delegate from the underworld who was present frightened the stately colonial ladies and shy old grandmothers half out of their wits. The clanking cowboys shouted orders to the variegated mass while bold highwaymen and clowns defied them on every side. Amid all the strife and confusion of the evening the stately Goddess of Liberty moved about smiling at her unruly sub- jects and meting out justice wherever it was needed. Caricatures of school life as it really is furnished the guests with amuse- ment. Songs by local talent stirred us deeply and incidentally turned our thoughts to the punch and cake waiting in the outer hall. After refreshments were served the little gingham aprons thought it might be bedtime, and immedi- ately took their departure. The older people debated the question, but managed to follow close after the younger set. The Junior Party MARCH 19, 1920. The Junior class Apron and Overall Party gathered together the largest group of aprons and overalls ever exhibited in our assembly room and halls. Sweet ginghams and blooming overalls glided many times thru the halls as the young folks enjoyed themselves to the fullest extent. A splendid program, consisting of recitations, singing and musical selections furnished delightful entertainment. Then to cap the climax of the evening, weinies, buns and coffee were served to refresh the happy participants before going home. e The Freshmen Party On the night of the twenty-third of April of the current year, the Freshmen safely anchored to the apron strings of Bliss Zimmerman and Nliss Wagner gave themselves a Hard Time Party. A tax of five cents was levied on any new article of clothing worn, but only five lone nickels were collected. From this we conclude that the Freshmen are learning, very well, the hard lesson of obedience. Nettie Geymer, in an evening gown made of burlap, and Drexel Heater, in a suit which may have been Ichabod Craneys, captured the prizes. The auditorium was very appropriately decked with the luxuriant evergreens gathered from the nearby forests. ln the course of the evening several Freshmen made their debut on the stage. The program varied from boxing to violin solos. VVe wish to con- gratulate the Freshmen on their enjoyable performances. Delicious refreshments, consisting of sandwiches, cookies, pickles and choco- late were served, and thoroughly enjoyed. o--W THE HESPERIAN ------o Page100 ocals September Monday, Sept. 22, 1919-First semester begins.

In a trip which I took with my uncle, I visited a number of old pioneers of the county who told me tales of adventure as exciting as those of the dime novel writers. In addition to these tales which I collected I obtained some of considerable interest through my uncle. I will not swear to the veracity of the following anecdotes. Among the pioneers whom we visited was an old deacon, Pam Deerkill, who was extremely fond of hunting. He was still fonder of telling of the fine fat deer he had killed. In the course of the evening of our visit, the following con- versation took place: One fall day, , old Pam-began, Uwhen the work was all donen Qbe it known that old Pam never did any, me and Jim tuck our riffes and the dogs and started after deer. VVe took our stations and after about a half hour a big five pint buck stepped out of the timber and stood just across a big five foot log from me. I up and drawed a 'bead' on him and pulled the zrigger. When the smoke cleared off there was still a big five pint buck standin' thar. I drawied a 'bead' and pulled the trigger agin but when the smoke cleared off agin thar was still a five pint buck. It jist kept up that way till I had shot Hve times and the time he dropped. But mind ye when I looked over that that log thar was five big Eve pint bucks all in a pile and still kickin' I hadn't been shootin' at the same one a tall. That was some killn exclaimed my uncle smiling. Do you remember the big fat one you killed on the Molalla?'y I shore do! he was so fat that the bullet made tenperfect tallow dips. Did they have Wicks in them ?l' asked my uncle with a twinkle in his eye. Pam vouchsafed no answer save a rumbling throaty Hm-m. About noon the next day we arrived at Jim Batson's place where we re- ceived a hearty welcome from the whole family. - VVe spent the afternoon, which was stormy, in the same way we had spent the evening before at Pam's. VVhen the pipes were going strong, old Jim hoisted his feet to the mantle shelf and started to tell of some pet adventures. VVhen I wuz ridin' for the Flyin' Q ranch, he related, one evening about duck I run onto an Injun camp and as it was too far to ride to the ranch I thot I'd stop over night. I got off my horse and when the Injuns seed me they begun to jargon amongst theirselves and I thot something must be in the wind. Then one of the braves asked me if I wasn't the man that killed their chief Rattlesnake. I be, says I. Wal thar was seventeen braves that and they all started tel' scalp me. I knocked sixteen of 'em dead the first punch but when the seventeenth come at me my arm was all tired out and he knocked me down but I got right up agin. He knocked me down agin and he knocked me down thirteen times. I had jest enough strength to get up agin and as I went down the last time my hand dropped on a nacheral and I jist reached out and teched him and knocked him dead. What is a nacheral, Jim?'l asked my uncle. Iris a rock that weighs exactly twenty-one ounces, was Jim's explanation. After a short silence I asked if any of them had been fishing lately. No,'l Jim answered, me nor the boys hasn't been fishin' fer a year now. Old Doc Chase went out to the Nlolalla last fall and caught two baskets of trout.'l I informed him. Uld Jim 'lfrowned up and looked quite dignified and remarked in a casuai manner, IVIe and Bob went out on Milk Creek last month and ketched all we or THE HlasPE1a1.xN -an---0 Page 107 could packn quite oblivious of the fact that he hadn't been lishin' fer a year now. After a couple of more pipes had been smoked, I suggested that we get our horses and start home. When we got out our horses Jim looked them over and remarked that they were purty fair critters. I had a horse once that come all the way from VVap-anisha to Niolalla in five hours and never went out of a walkfl 'lHow far is it, asked my uncle. Around seven hundred miles. Some walker, remarked my uncle with enthusiasm. We mounted our horses and after exchanging good-bye and 'Acome again we rode on our way. These are a few examples of the stories with which Clackamas County abounds and which only want an industrious collector to make good material for a novel of adventure. THE BROOK A tiny brook is a pretty thing Rippling along its way, It laughs and then bright songs will sing Blithely, and to you will say llflany words with meanings, hidden. But the meanings are there no less. Sometimes you're laughed with, sometimes chidden For your seeming forgetfulness. Over stones and eddies, Small falls and rapids. As on it goes the current steadies And a creek the sloping banks laps. No more will it play, in its infantile way For it has grown into a river And must flow on to the great beyond To the ocean blue, its father . I . IV. S . F 0-l-L-THE HESPERIAN -l--0 Page108 At the School Cafeteria Bring me a bowl of soupfy 'lBring me a Cup of cocoa, or Bring me a piece of cake, the girls were shouting to one another. It was noon, and the cafeteria was open, but some of the girls were late, so they gave their orders to those in line. The Senior table was filling up rapidly. Everyone talked at once and the room was nlled with the usual meaningless chatter that always accompanies a large party of girls. The Freshmen and Sophomore girls were seated at a table on the other side of the room and were as busy as the rest. Everything went fine until one of the Freshmen girls started to peel her orange. Then the fun, or fight, began. It seems that the Frosh and Sophs liked most of all to throw orange peel at the Seniors. The Senior girls paid no attention, altho orange peel was flying all around them. Then, all of a sudden a peeling landed in a cup cf cocoa at the Senior table, and this was altogether too much for the Seniors. VVithout warning one of the Senior girls stood up and threw a peeling at the Freshmen. The Hght was on. Orange peel, paper balls and bread crusts were flying thru the air thick and fast. The Frosh and Sophs were losing out. The Seniors, instead of throwing back quickly, would Wait until the others had thrown all the ammunition they had and then would start the attack again. After the fight, which the Seniors won, such things as this might be heard: 'Have you got a comb? Bly hair's all down! Let me use your comb! Oh my eyelu Does it hurt? Gee, 1 didn't rrean to hurt you, etc. And the Freshmen and Sophomores had learned their lesson for that day. R. J. '20.

Silently, softly, the snow Hakes fall, Gently, slowly, till over all A radiant whiteness, pure and clean, Spreads itselfwith a silvery sheen. Out of the silence the pale moon doth rise, Silvery stars gild the frost-laden skies, All is now silent, in the woods dark and drear A deep, brooding silence has spread far and ne Over the plain, with slow plodding feet, A tired soul is tramping his weary wayg 1 Elf.

Jacobs wasn't really bad at heart but she had a strong desire to know in every detail the private affairs of all the people that lived in the block between Thirteenth and Fourteenth on Fashionable Street in the much heralded city of Hawthorne. One bright sunshiny afternoon as our friend lVIrs. Jacobs was taking her usual inventory of the block by strolling for her health, as she called it, she noticed that all the lace curtains in Nlrs. Ryan's house were gone and she couldn't see a piece of furniture anywhere in the front parlor. lVIy goodness. she shouted, to herself, What can be the matter? I always did think that the Ryans were rather strange but why did they move away so suddenly and not tell anyone where they were going? I shall go immediately and see if Nlrs. Brown can clear this matter 7! up. So our friend, lNIrs. Jacobs, walked directly across the street to Nlrs. Brown's house and rang the door bell for all she was worth. lVIrs. Brown welcomed her cordially and after about five minutes of smooth-tongued flattery in which they both partook, lNIrs. Jacobs started. Hllirs. Brown, do you know that Mfrs. Ryan has moved away and its all been done since yesterday afternoon? Do you suppose' her husband has stolen some money and they went away to avoid the sheriff? If I remember rightly, I saw the sheriff's car go by my house this morning, but then I didn't think anything at all about. Why, IVIrs. Brown, just think how terrible it would be to find out that they were a couple of thieves after weyve been so intimate with them. I really don't know a thing about it, lVIrs. Jacobs, replied lXfIrs. Brown. But let's go see IN'Irs. Green. So the two went to see INfIrs. Green and after they had passed remarks con- cerning the weather and various things llflrs. Brown said A'Did you know, Nlrs. Green, what terrible people those Ryans were? Why, No, replied Mrs. Green. VVell, lblr. Ryan has stolen some money and they had to move away. They'rc gone and nobody knows v. here and the sher- iff was there this morning and now I really do believe that NIr. Ryan was the murderer of that promising young cashier. With that lVIrs. Green fairly turned yellow and suggested they go see what lylrs. White knew about it. N So the three curious ladies went over to call on Mrs. White. Without wait- ing to inquire as to the health of the White family or to congratulate IX'Irs. VVhite on her lovely new daughter-in-law, Mrs. Green asked her in a voice so spooky that it alone would have scared any common person, if she knew that IXfIr. Ryan had murdered the young cashier and stole all the money that he had charge of. It's true Mrs. White, because lVIrs. Jacobs saw the sheriff go to the Ryan home this very morning. Well, ladies, that certainly does sound dreadful, replied Birs. White. I should suggest that we go to the Ryan cottage and see for ourselves what is going on. So they proceeded--Nlrs. Jacobs, IX'Irs. Brown, Nlrs. Green and Nlrs. White went to Mrs. Ryan's house and rang the doorbell. No one answered, so they rang again and almost as they rang the bell, lVIrs. Ryan appeared at the side of the front porch. Welll Well! this is certainly a surprise party on me. l'm dreadfully sorry I can't entertain you this afternoon. You know we're having our house remodeled and I'm very busy with my spring house cleaning, was her astonish- ing greeting. Ill. J.

FOR the American boy or girl who is ambitious to make the most of himself and his opportunities, there can be but one answer to that questionfAfter High School, a college education. Never were the opportunities so great: never the call so urgent for trained, educated men and women to occupy the places of trust and leadership in the affairs of the nation. Q.. The University of Oregon is maintained by the people of the state in order that no young man or woman may be denied the advantages of a university education. The University embraces the College of Literature, Science and the Arts, and the Schools of Law, Commerce, Architecture, Journalism, Education and Music. ' Tuition is free and expenses low, with many opportunities for self-help. Distinctive of Oregon are the faculty of experts, the liberal and comprehensive curriculum, the beautiful campus, the democratic relations among the stu- dents and faculty, and the famous Oregon Spirit. For a catalogue, a copy of the elaborately illustrated book- let, Student Life at Oregon, folders on Education for Citizenship, Science and Civilization, Student Activities at Oregon, etc., or for any information, address The Reg- istrar, University of Oregon, Eugene, Oregon. 3 49 4? owl?
