President VVilliam Goodwin gave the last farewell of the class to the school. The third feature was the customary preseiitatioii of the Big Stick to the incoming Seniors. Banquet The Class Banquet of the January graduating class was held in the Younker Tea Room, Mon- day evening, January 24. It was a gala event. Dignified Seniors forgot their Sunday man- ners and fully enjoyed the menu, which consisted of fried spring chicken and all that goes with it. The toast program carried out the general theme of The Ranch, and Thomas Paul, acting as toastmaster, pulled off the necessary amount of bright cracks. Louise Kleemeier spoke on The Corral , Esther Dunkerton, The Brandng Marianne Coffee, U The Judging , Ray Bates, The Award, Mr. Cook, The Horseshoe , and Mr. W. J. Goodwin, father of the class president, H The Market. Undoubtedly everyone had ai good time, including the worried committee and the nervous Cty speakers. 1927 W2.i,Q,,,m.a, - Prcsidcntis Class Day Speech Mic. COOK, FELLOW Cr.AssMA'1'1as, S'l'lll7l'IN'l'S, AND FAciu,'rY or lioosisvisui' IIIGH ScHooL: Time has rolled around to the point where we must look into the future and judge what awaits us there. The threshold of a new and unseen world is soon to be crossed. The members of the January 1927 class will be scattered to the four winds, but not Without suppressed emotions as the memories of the last few years pass through our minds. Behind us is the gradual growth, the fulfillment of childhood dreams, but IIOWV a different life is upon us with new problems and new opportunities. Our class has received great benefit from the city schools' building program. XVe have spent a large part of the last three and one-half years inside the walls of this wonderful, new, and carefully equipped school. How different from the small rural schools of the past which had an enrollment of fifteen or twenty pupils. In proportion as we have been given advantages by a generous com- munity we should show our appreciation through deeds as soon as we take an active part in that community. Every person here has at one time or another been dependent on someone who has helped him to develop a solid foundation. The success of any enterprise de- pends on the way the foundation is laid. lVhen the fundamental principles have been mastered the individual himself must apply them. The faculty here has done more than we are ready to admit, working constantly, week after week, to give us material aid in the struggle for success. During the last few years, there have been developed in the minds and souls of the members of this class some real ideals. Such ideals must not end with a school course, but must continue throughout our lives in order that better quali- ties of citizenship may be propagated. ln whatever field we enter, personal con- tacts are a. necessity and may our lives be such that all these contacts show the result of our high thinking. Rooseveltian ideals are living, growing ideals that must not be allowed to per- ish. Obstacles will present themselves. VVe should not avoid, but overcome them. XVe should not forget the lessons we have learned here for life is use. A wise man has said, Life is at bundle of habits. Establishing habits come from constant doing. VVe must put into unceasing practice those things which we wish to be second nature with us. It is only natural that, feeling so deeply our responsibilities, we take advantage of this farewell to give a bit of advice to those who will come to fill the Senior places. No words of our own are so fitting as those of YVoodrow Wilson: We are not worthy to stand here unless we ourselves be in deed and in truth real servants of mankind, ready to give our very lives for the freedom and justice and spiritual exhaltation of the great nation which shelters and nurtures us. The Class of January 1927 now bids you all goodbye, and leaves with its sin- cerest good wishes that joyous and honorable success attend your efforts in all the days to come. -WILLIAM J.

Ilflhlqtld strutting through the halls talking to one another of the days when they went to Roosevelt. Ap lllqlllflng reporter of the old, wellrestablished paper, The Rnrmlllm, set out to find how life had dealt with those former studious and very brilliant personages between the yours of 15327 and 1957. This young reporter of the 1957 journalism class first approached am tall, rather distinguished-looking gentleman whose hair had just begun to silver. On being questioned, the man gave his name as Mr. Frank Stacy, the famous movie director and magnate of Culver City, California. Mr. Stacy, it will be remembered by Des Moines residents, and by some members of Rooseveltfs faculty, was the 1e:1.dIm,: man in the Senior play presented by the June class of 1927. . Mr. Richard Ullrich, the former president of this class, was nvxt interviewed. Contrary to all expecta- uons, the latter modestly reported that he had not entered the field of politics, but is :L traveling salesman for Pgepsodgnt tooth paste, and that he uses his famous smile to illustrate the marvelous effect obtained by using hls produvt! A blue-eyed lady next claimed the attention of the reporter. She graciously gave her name as Mrs. Bong, and was immediately recognized as the famous Mrs. Dorothy VViltsey Bong who hos recently become even better known by the success of her latest artistic effort-tlnu interior decorating ot.tho largest cnlllvfiral in Rome, While the reporter was conversing with her, an artistic looking dark- hmrml man snuntered up to them and Mrs. Boaz addressed him as Mr. York. This gentleman was at on's time the lfrmnrlzzyfs staff rartoonist, and is now the head cartoonist on the Altoona Blaze. l.Vhile this uonversqtiou was progressing, a group had gathered around the reporter and his infnrmers. Names and occupations were rapidly noted and written down. Miss Ethyl YVag0r, one of the best-known char- acter actresses on Broadway, was present with Miss Gretchen Grnefe, the lending lady in Hamlet. The former Myrtilla Daniels, now the wife of the governor-elect of Texas strolled into sen what was going on. Following her came Robert Proper, a well-known Des Moines citizen Who edits the People's Popular Monthly, and with him was his cousin, Mr. Stanley Piper, the inventor of the rocket which is tu 1-nrry an expedition to Mars six months from now. The treasurer of the 1927 class, Mr. Glen Beinhauer, reported his present work to be professor of mathematics at Harvard. Mr. Robert Risser, who soon joined the group, is still a citizen of Des Moines, and though rather obscure, he has :L great deal to do with the happiness of his fellow-citizens. He is manager of the Iadios' ready-to-xvvnr department in the city's only department store, The Younker Brothers-Hurris-Emery-Mawsllullvlfioldl Mr. Stanley Swnrzman and his former 1-ollongue, Mr. lid Brownbridge now npproaclu-cl. chatting in an animated fashion. They had not Seen ezwh other for fifteen years. Mr. Swarznmu now lu-ads the lzlrgfvst ice cream factory in the world, located at Brooklyn, Now York, while Mr. Brownln-idgefs occupation, as is well known, is that of vrmmmics lealrlwr right llc-re in Roosa-ve-lt High. Two fnmous novolists :md poolvssos who had just returned from un extensive European trip on which they gatlu-red material for their next work weye present Together. They were Beatrice Flutter and Bath Xvnltvrs. They were overjoyed to meet ihexr to the old fri:-nd, Katherine McL:1ug:l1lin, who is now Amerimfs Poet L:u11'0z1tP, nt the- rounmn, The Reverend Miles Murphy, the best-known and most popular minister in the L-ity, gave n short talk before presenting the surprise-one might almost say the miracle-of the 4-vening, in the person of Miss Helen Lingenfelte-r, first woman president of the United Status. President Lingunfc-lter's promise to nttend the reunion and her arrival in this city had been kent in absolute svcrecy until she was presented delighted audience of old classmates at Roosevelt High School. Shu gave the main address of the evening and was welcomed home with uprnarious applause. Following thu P1'0SldE'lllYS speech, all the members of the 1927 class who had not already thus registered were nsln-ll ln put down their names and occupations in a register especially prepared for that purpose. The rosults, Tim lfmlmlup feels sure, will be interesting to the majority of its readers and tho list is herewith prinh-ll in full: Mrmmma AI:TER1PHTiSi6HHG style designer.

Carrothers, had a fairly sueeessful season in 1927. ln the ten debates in which they participated, Roosevelt won five for an average of five hundred per cent. The only local sehool to do better debating than Roosevelt was XVest Des Moines, who won the eity championship. In the Drake Debating Tournament, Roosevelt VVOII its debates in the first three rounds. However, they were eliminated by YVest High in the SOIIll-flll3lS. The question they debated this year was Resolved, that Congress should enaet, legisla- tion embodying the principles of the Haugen Farm Relief Bill-Constitutionality VVaived.H The following seven persons participated in the debates: Clarenee Cooper, Chester lngrznn, Jennings Ferguson, Don Mallett, Kathyrn King, Edgar WVilson, and llelen Lingenfelter. Clarence Cooper will be the only regular debater back next year, the other six Qflfltlllilllllg in June. However, Elizabeth Throeklnorten, who was on the squad this year, but who didn it take part in any debates, will also be back next year. 1927 E f ,Kilt DI'lxlT1AtiCS N79 1 E x 5' Wiz Mrs. Van Tuyl BIPS. Hellen Marr Van Tuyl came to Roose- velt High at its opening in September, 1923. That she has thoroughly organized and in- spi1'ed the dramatic and public speaking work in the four years she has been here is attested by the size and the enthusiasm of the groups at wo1'k in every phase of the des partment.

Of course, its prime motive, in common with the various clubs of the Guild is to promote interest in Dramatics and to interest desirable people in its membership. People who are engrossed in their studies and various other outside activities will not trouble to iinml out, perhaps, about the individual clubs, such as Sothern Marlowe, Footlights, and Thespian. However, when they behold such a large functioning body as the Guild at work, they will inquire and to all probability make themselves eligible to join its ranks by becoming members of one of the Guild clubs. The Guild has been active throughout the year, not only in private functions, but i11 matters of mutual interest to the school at large. Members of the Guild produced the Senior play, 'fVVhat Happened to Jones. This is a project of interest to the whole school, for it encourages and induces school spirit which is so vital to the moral upkeep of so large an institution as Roosevelt. Then in the carnival, the Guild again proved its worth to the school, by producing a play, the profits from which were turned over to the Roosevelt treasury. Besides numberless other little services to the school, there was the enormous project of the opcretta-in common with the music department, under the leadership of Mr. Holmes, the Roosevelt Dramatic Guild under the guidance of Mrs. Van Tuyl staged and produced the operetta 'Vlielawalaf' This was the most successful undertaking of its kind ever produced in the high schools of Des Moines. 1927 Wiz K Players Club The Players Club, an l10Il0l'Ill'y dramatic club, was Organized in November, 1926. The members are nominated by their respective clubs Zllld are required to pass satisfactorily the following tests: CID Give three Cll31'3.CfCl'lZ1lt,l0l1S of certain types of people. Q25 Show a knowledge of stage directions. CBD EllU1lK'l2lft? and pronounce difficult words. Q45 Read a part from a play at sight. Q55 Identify a number of prominent actors and actresses and tell one stellar role of each. Because of the knowledge alld ability required it is intended that the organization shall consist of the twelve most talented students i1I draniatics. The club has been very active since its beginning, presenting a two-aut play, Mr, Bob, at the last Guild Meeting of the first semester, taking part in a contest sponsored by Drake University and filming a motion picture.

Much more is expected of the Thespians bi-cause of their experience. A play is usually given at much meeting and crit.ic'isms and discussion are held on it afterward. The casts of the senior plays are usually chosen from the members of this c-lub which undertakes to sponsor all senior dramatic activities.

Mr. Watt has always been associated with athletics all over the Hawkeye state. He was born at Yillisca, Iowa, where he l52l1'il0lp2lfQll in all sports at the Villisca lligh School. From there Mr. Watt entered Grinnell College, and he is remembered as being one of the greatest athletes ever turned out by that institution. After the war Mr. Watt became head coach at Argentine High School, Kansas City, where he turned out some of the best athletic teams ever seen in the Sunflower state. During the football season at Roosevelt Coach Watt took the material left by Bingham and developed the greatest team that ever wore the Blue and White. He won the city and state title by virtue of not losing a game during the entire season and being scored on only once in the eight games played. In basket ball he turned almost as remarkable a record, as the four teams which he developed lost only six games out of thirty-two, and were runners-up for the city title. Coach Watt 's career as the track coach has proved very successful and the team he made has placed high in every meet in the state. Because of his splendid record in his short stay at Roosevelt, M1'. Watt was offered the position of head football coach at his t'Alma. Mater, Grinnell College, and will assume his duties there in the fall. Mr. Nelson Willard C. Nelson has been at Roosevelt for the last four years as the director of athletiesg and has also acted as the coach of the swimming team in which capacity he has made a re- markable reeord, turning out some of the best swimmers in the state and developing one of the strongest teams of any Iowa high school. Mr. Nelson took charge of the boys' tennis team this spring and made a very good record. As business manager of school athletics, he has kept the school fund on a sound basis, and has been able to outfit the Roosevelt teams in perfect condition. Mr. Piper Willis D. Piper has aided in the school athletics in the last three years. Mr. Piper has been coach of the second football team which won the city championship, and has also been the mentor of the junior high soccer team which won the eity title. Besides these Mr. Piper has greatly helped the regular coach i11 developing winning teams in all spo1'ts. 1927 92.11 'Flu' Km-fi-vm-It Ii Viula luis l'4'4ll',Q'JllliX1'1i 1lUl'ilIQ' Hu- last sa-viii-sim' :iufl wsliiiiwl iwrli in HIL llIi1'I'l'SiS U1 :ilhlvtlvs :lf lfmnsawvlf.

Bowers was one of the fastest eliaruing line- men in the eity and in the East lligh game frequently broke thronpgh and downed the fleet Lee township barks for losses. He is back next season. ROBERT RISSER Bob played stellar football this year, being: a sure taekler who eould always he eonnted on to do his part. Rlssers star playing: in the l'last-Roosevelt game gave him a berth as guard on the '1'rihune's all-city team. Bob made his last year a glorious one. RAYMOND CLICSS Gloss played his first year of football last season and seintillated at a tackle position. lle was mentioned by the papers in the all- eity selections. Ray was very adept at getting down under punts and was the surest taokler on the squad. llis work in the North High game was very brilliant and will long he remembered. GRURGIG l3RlCt'K George was the ranggiest taelile that ever represented the Blue and Xl'hite on the grid- irun. Standing.: six feet four inehes high and weigh ing: lkltl pounds he was a veritable tower ol' strength in all of Roost-velt's games. Playing: against Nevada's all-slate end he threw the Nevada barks for losses throughout the annie, This perforinanee alone stamps him as one of the best taekles in Iligh School football. lle is baok next year. MAX l-DVI-Ilil-ITT liveretti played quarter and hall' bark this season and Ltained considerable ground for Roosevelt. llo was injured early in the season hnt returned to the teani in time to play at lndianola. Max was very adept at throwinr forward passes and his eonlrol over the ball resulted in many tonehdowns during: the season. MZ1X'S plate will be hard to flll next season. BILLY GOODXVIN Billy was se'eeted eaptain just ht-fore the first game and was appointed to that position in every following, eontest. Goodwin played quart-erbaek and by midseason had developed into one of the headiest generals and eleverest ball toters in the city. lie was :liven the cap- tainey of the all-eity seeond team. STANLEY DUGAN Dugan, the fighting.: Irishman of the squafl. has been a member of the Roosevelt team for three years. He was also pursued by the ina jury jinx and NVFLS disabled during: the seasons of '24 and '25. This year he came bark in good shape and was used at both end and quarter. His ability to stop end runs and off taekle plays won hint recognition. Duggan graduates in January. i Billy is lost to Roosevelt through graduation. 1927 9711 -de LIQKUY S'l'li0Mli Strome Vlllllt' to us from Seymour. lowa. in Svptveinher, 1925.

Ho was inex- perie-nm-ed and green at the beginning of tln- season hut, soon developed into a very good full hai-k. He was used at end in the Boone and North games and provoml to he very good. It was largely Mike's taekling that stopped Mason l'iLy's plunging attack. Harold returns in 19127. JOHN PINKI-IRTUN l'inkia playod eellti-r and guard this sea- son, showing up well ln both positions. YVhile playing at a guard position his sidi- of the line was impenetrable. It was Pinkerton who prevented Boone from scoring: on Roose- velt in the game plays-d on the former's field. Unfortunately Pinkie will be graduated in Juno. Ylltlllltl DON CARIAUS NValdo was pursued hy tho injury jinx for two seasons. but just lu-fore the lndianola grann- he shook off this jinx and played vm-ntor in all the remaining: 1-ontosts. Don Carlos was unanimous r-hoive for all-1-ity pivotman and was give-n mention on the all-state selections. XValdo graduates in January and will hc greatly missed by the squad. RAY HARIJEN Ray was tho unanimous elloivv ot' tho lowal roaehos and sport- writers for all-eity end. Very few runs were made around his end and he was down under punts waiting: for the oppos- ing safety men to catt-h them.

But the editor of this column is actually plural. John Henderson and Fred Buuder founded The Admit in Volume VIII, Number 6 as a department in the weekly Roundup. They will confess that it was often necessary to feed it at first, but as attention was attracted and interest deep- ened, Mr. Admit gradually began to draw upon some of the finest literary talent in Roosevelt. If these young columnists continue their work with as much energy next semester as they have given to it in the past, there is no doubt but that The Admit will become as much a part of our school as the little slips of paper that pilot the Rooseveltizin through the corridors. Unfortunately, space is limited, but the Roundup reprints on this page some of the more typical contributions of the semester, and to those loyal contributors and readers who have made the department possible this page is gratefully dedicated.

Farewell, Iiooseveltl The high school days are oler. Advice from the Seniors ln order that the younger students may profit by the experiences of their elders, tl1e gradu- ating class, we have thought of a few things, learned by four years' experience in this sehool, and the way they may be most effectively put over. First: Gum in Drinking Fountains. Of course it is necessary to chew guing especially if you take typing. We refer you to Mr. Carrotliers. He knows that gum produces speed, when typing, if chewed while the teaeherls back is turned. Be very careful about this! If she is faeing you, the speed will probably be in the direction of the office. To dispose of gum before lunch, there is no plaee but ai d1'inking fountain. This is a.n ac- cepted fact, known even to THE FACULTY. This brings us to the great diiticulty between the gum and the drinking fountain-THE FACULTY. They are inclined to be difficult in this respeetg in fact, they have an unreasonable hatred for gum-quite unexplainable. Before putting your gum in the fountain, look around every turn in the eorridorg use spy glasses, it necessary, but be sure none of THE FACULTY is in sight. Then creep slowly and quietly to the fountain. Listen for footsteps. If all is quiet and no one is in sight, drop the gum in the fountain--then run FAST! By this silnplc' procedure, you will have disposed of the gum with- out any danger of green cards. Second: Writing Notes. It is just as necessary to write notes as it is to chew gum, maybe more so. How can you ask a girl for a date? How can she answer you? How can you gossip? How can you make youi' after school plans? How can you tell your best friend what the heavy date had to say? The answer is Waite LL Note! No member of THE FACULTY or student body could deny this-snot even if he tried-not even if he stood on his head.-it can 't be done! Write the note on a. large piece of paper, fthe larger the better, and fold it in halfb. This will make the teacher think it is some of your lessons. English probably, it usually is written on this type of paper. Let us suppose that the person to Whom you are writing, sits on the other side of the elass room. Always pick some one as far away as possible-it is much easier and more thrilling. After you have folded the paper, make a. hissing sound by blowing through your clenched teeth. This will attract everyone, including the teacher. But don 't worry. She thinks the paper is an English theme. Pass it to the boy across the aisle. Try to look both bold and mysteriousg study this expression before the mirror at night. VVhen the note reaches its destination, look innocent. You didn 't write that note. I should say not! Every one in the elass will say you didn't-this is Sehool Spirit. P 1927 Wiz Sayings of Roosevelt Seers Early to bed, and early to rise, makes a man a. rooster in disguise. Roosevelt keeps a dear school. So we shall be fools in no other. If you would know thc value of knowledge, try to get some. Early to school and late to go home, makes even our student councilers moan. He that goes ad hunting goes a sorrowing. Breathes there a girl with soul so dead, who never to her date hath said-' 'When do we eat? A stitch in time sews your old man. Trusting to the other man 's work is the ruin of many. Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we diet. Here lies the ashes Of poor little Hanky Kissed his girl By an open gas tank. Eight o'clock and Mr. Koch Waits for no child. Wake me not from my peaceful slumbers, While Mrs. Maynard talks, figures and num- bers- Geometry i's but an empty dream! Some to whom Chester in Wit had been pro- fuse, Locked him outside, and voiced their strong' abuse. It may take a dwarf behind his steam en- gine to remove mountains, but it takes Miss Ogden to make you feel like crawling through a crack in the floor. The early solicitor gets the ads. Too many ads spoil the Roundup. Don 't do today, what you can do tomor- row. Life is but a thought. Mr. Schropp helps those that help them- selves. Meers and Swarzman wait for no news. Compacts may come and compacts may go, but the shiny nose goes on forever. Dost thou love Roosevelt? If thou dost, do not mark the walls, for that 's the stuff the school 's made of. Mr. Cook keeps a dear school but more rules could be made in no other. Late to bed, sleep as long as you can, Eat ham and eggs and you 'll soo11 have to join the diet squad.
