It is in recognition of this motion that we of the 1937 Capitoline Staff have based our book on a panorama of present conditions, events, and personalities. If you like it, we who have worked on it are satisfied, for we dedicate it to you who are our subscribers among the students of Springfield High School.

For achievement by sheer power of will, for unfaltering leader- ship in time of stress, we salute him, the President of the United States.

McCoy Mr. McCoy, though acting superintendent of the city schools, second semester, took time out to write for the Capitoline the following words about the S. H. S. Curricula: The diversity of tastes, ambitions, and en- vironment is the force creating the necessity for organization of the Secondary School Curricula. ' Unquestionably, the motive behind the ad- justment is for the purpose of offering ade- quate preparation for seeking after and ob- taining MLife, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness for every member of our demo- cratic society. If the demanded standards of the chosen curriculum are conformed to, there is a type immeasurably serviceable in meeting any life situation, and consistently proportionate for bringing about the effective functioning of a progressive, social existence. The majority of students find a college or a university education indispensable in seek- ing a life-preparedness. Other groups find opportunities which suf- ficiently meet the requirements of their ob- jectives. - A Eleven With materials of subject matter so readily available there need be.no lack of prepara- tion toward the enjoyment of any worthwhile life experience. All materials contribute generously their portion toward the realization of health, domestic relationships, leisure time pleasure, vocational activities, development of ideals, acquisition of correct habits and skills, or remunerative and profitable employment. So whether the demands are professional, commercial, cultural, industrial, or social there is an offering of academics, business subjects, art, music, manual arts, physical education, home economics, or even a gen- eral course which when acquired can easily be supplemented by special study leading the way to success in any chosen life-ad- venture.

Don't close the hook, but read on to see how they help make your school the school you want it to be. In this corner we present the assistant prin- cipal, Mr. L. K. Davis, usmilin' Lyman , col- loquially speaking. He is the Big Bad Bogie Man in charge of discipline. NAt once ...... . Davis is his favorite message to skipping stu- dents, who shake in their shoes as they read the ominous words. If your eye strays down, it will rest on gentle Miss Dorothy Bundy, dean of girls, and on Wise-looking Mr. Roy Wentz, dean of hoys. These two have parallel duties. Advisors of Senior Girls' and Boys' Councils, respectively, they straighten out programs and other tangles. Besides this, Miss Bundy teaches a class in Eng- lish, Mr. Wentz one in business arithmetic. How do these three find time for all their many duties? That, dear reader, is one of the unsolved m steries of the a es.

In addition Miss Van De- venter left the second semester to take a posi- tio11 at Lanphier Highg her vacancy was filled by Grace Cox who assumed full time duties here. Miss Graham has been appointed to till Miss Wilcoxls place. For the first semester the department was under the leadership of four committees, one for each of the four years. Although the corps of teachers has under- gone changes, the English course remains the same. English 9' and IO! are excellent train- ing in composition, while 92 and 102 are purely literary, serving as a basis for the more advanced literature of 5 and 7. For stu- dents who desire more than the required three years of English there are courses in debate, drama, public speaking, journalism, and scribblers. These are all one semester courses, well-organized and worthwhile. The drama class this year displayed its talents in the drama class play g'He Who Gets Slappedf' skillfully directed by Miss Maragaret Rourke.

But lately a very modern version of a social science with Mr. Hornbrook as instructor has raised its head on the horizon, demanding rec- ognition. This innovation, commercial geo- graphy, though the name may be dull-sounding, presents an amazing Vista of opening fields to freshmen who sign up for it. Providing an adequate background for future history studies, it deals with the influence of geography on man and his progress. lt helps the student understand how our human family has learned and is still learning how to fit itself into this world that is its home. When one hears of the fascinating Way in which it is taught-with slides, novel outside projects, teams co-operating, an unusually equipped room, and all sorts of other delightful ideas to make learning fun-he wonders why such a course Wasn't inaugurated sooner.

EDA NELSCH Advisor of Thaliansg Illinois State Normal Universityg Uni- versity of Illinois, B.S.g Colum- hia University, M.A. Miss Nelsch thinks dependability, in- terest, and scholarship are the neces- sary ingredients.which make up the ideal student from a tearher's Slllnfl- point. S. S. SIMPSON Northern Illinois Normal School, B.S.g University of Illi- nois, A.B., M.A. Although he finds many characteristirs to admire in his students, the three he partibularly emphasizes are honesty, energy, and perseverance. GUY H. THOMPSON University of Illinois, B.S., M.S. Mr. Thompson feels that it's not too much to ask an ideal student to be rourtcons, congenial, good-natured, om- Iritious, industrious, and obedient. How fascinating the study of history has always been to man! Always he has sought to know the mystifying where's, when's, and why's of his own existence. Always he has endeavored to solve problems of the future by knowing the past. In history, and in all social science classes of Springfield High School great stress is laid on the solution of problems-political, eco- nomic, and social problems -which tend to re- appear in one form or another. If the aims of this department were fully realized and if schools throughout the world adopted and achieved these same objectives, who knows what heights of international under- standing might be reached? The social science department tries, to quote its head, Miss Louise Welch, Hto give its pupils understanding of the elements of continuity and change in human progress, appreciation of our racial heritage, recognition of national obligations, conception of economic problems, and a character of civic honor and responsibilityf' If one were to visit a history class rent events were being discussed, he that citizens from our school: will in be well informed. Our instructors our inter- our major foundation where cur- would find the future encourage expressions of students' opinion-and, what's more, they get them. Miss McKinnie's 121 U. S. History Class Seventeen Mathematics Department Mr. Barnes' 12' Trigonometry Class Practicahility-that's the watchword of the math- ematics department of our school. That's the guiding principle, as instructors inject into sometimes thick- skulled students the knowledge necessary for college study or for life work in this subject. Angle mirror, hypsometer, sextant, transit, and other strange-sounding instruments are handled dexterously by Springfield High School student mathematicians, for they learn to use them in a number of field projects promoted hy the department. To you instructors and students interested in delv- ing into the secrets of the universe with mathematics as the key, good luck! Long may your axioms and your theorems govern the land! Long may you algehraists continue to watch your x's, your yis, and your z's! HERBERT O. BARNES fHeadJ James Millikin University, A.B.

Follow the advice given during the Courtesy Campaign if you want to show Miss Jenkinson how glad you are that she is the new Spanish teacher. uParlez-vous francais?,'- hasta maiiana -Hten1- pus fugitv. If you have any knowledge of foreign languages these phrases will not be all 6'Greek to you. If you haven't-well-you'll just have to curb your curiosity or else inveigle someone into enligh- tening you. There's no doubt, though, but that being familiar with some foreign language gives one a feeling of prestige-and makes him feel that he's really a man of the world. Here students are offered three years of both French and Spanish in addition to the standard four years of Latin. As an added attraction, there's uLe Cercle Fran- cais at Whose meetings only French is spoken.

While learning shorthand and typing, their 'minds drift to days to come when they will be powers behind the thrones of business men or politicians, or What-have- you. It will be their genius and skill as secre- taries which will save their employers from ruin. They will be so capable that their em- ployers, when honored greatly, will say, '6We owe it all to our little secretariesli' Or they will so unobtrusively run the oiiice affairs that no one will quite realise how much they do-until they are gone. Then their fellow workers will run around in con- fusion, all singing the same theme song: HWhere's Miss Jones? Even if these not-impossible predictions 99 don't happen, office workers who graduate from the S. H. S.

Hfre is a fine compliment for the male I: element of the class of 1940. Mr. San- ders is enthusiastic about his lmrll working freshmen. ALLEN SMITH Stout Institute. From the quality of work done by Mr. Sv-ith's boys, we judge the characteristic which impresses him most is accuracy- The old type of manual arts has been broadened. Just teaching a boy how to make things with his hands is not adequate any longer. Now he gains a general knowledge of a number of vocational fields and deter- mines his reactions to certain types of work. Though some S. H. S.ers might make Jesse Owens' pace look like that of a snail in escap- ing the clangings, hammerings, buzzings, and clinkings that these rooms emit, these noises are as sweet to the ears of industrially mind- ed boys as a Hal Kemp tune. But all the courses aren't as rackety as the general metal shop, printing shop, and wood shop are, for there are courses with more of a theoretical approach, such as mechanical drawing, elec- tricity, and auto mechanics. A new instructor, Mr. Cedric Henley, has increased the teaching staff by one. Balanc- ing this addition is the introduction of a new course, acetylene welding, under' the direc- tion of Mr. Frank Owens. The industrial arts course develops a sense of value, clear thinking, and gives skill in the use of machinery. Twenty-one Music Department Mr. Sauer leading the orchestra uThere's something in the air, tum te tumwg our building just hums with animation. Per- haps it's the modern swing music from the chorus rooms that inspires the furnace to umake it hotw for us. In soothing such a rampage what could be more effective than the dulcet tones of the A Cappella Choir? In a knowledge-seeking mood it could drop in on a class of music history and apprecia- tion in a deep discussion of Bach and Beetho- ven. Marching to the syncopation of the band, faren't they proud and comfortable in their new quarters?J it would return to its place. Not forgetting our illustrious orches- tra stranded in Central, have you ever known a time when its members were not prepar- ing, giving, or reaping congratulations from a concert? But seriously speaking new life has been injected into this department. All these changes in courses and materials have been made with these goals in mind: To create a love of good music in all students, to give a foundation for intelligent listening for all types of music, to develop a cultural back- ground, and to discover and develop individ- ual talent. Yes siree, it's this department that keeps perennial spring with us! Twenty -two FRANCES CHATBURN Director of Vocal Music.

VIRGINIA BURR Les Bas Advisorg MacMurray College, B.S. Here's advice to those who would have Miss Burr think well of them: be cour- teous. Though not expecting future Emily Posts in her classes, she does rate this quality above all others in students. MABEI.

ETHEL VAN GILDER Kansas State College, B.S. The girl who is particular about every- thing is the one I admire most, because I know that girl is thinking and alert, she says. What is home without a homemaker? Though not attempting to answer this puzz- ling riddle, the home economics department of Springfield High School does its best to make the riddle itself unnecessary. From its classes come efficient and gracious future homemakers. ,lustly proud of this department is every- one connected with it. S.I'I.S. is one of the pioneers of the state in offering such mul- tiple-unit courses as Homemaking 91 and 92- courses which have aroused interest in many other communities. To stimulate a general interest in the Inany problems of the home and to develop knowledge and skills that will help in their solution is its aim. Training girls to an ap- preciation of happy home life and an under- standing of the factors that contribute to it gives them desire to become more worthy members of their own family groups, thus bringing the present into the picture. Calling all astrologers, crystal-gazers, palmists, and tea-leaf readers, one could ask what the future holds for homemakers. A seer, star-gazing, might see contented hus- bands, frictionless families, joyous homes, and charming wives-all resulting from just such home economics courses as this. How civilization progresses!

First in line are the triplets of the groups-can you guess their names?

Then there are hot- any, the study of plants, chemistry, the sci- ence of chemicals, physics, the study of phe- nomena of inanimate matter, and an equally important member, general science, which seeks to give a general idea of all these.

MARK PETERMAN Basketball Coach. LaCrosse State Teachers' Col- legeg University of Illinois, B.S. Author, The Secret of Suc- cessful Basketball. This worried looking basketball mentor surprises us with his choice quietness. Is this a hint to his study halls? WILLIAM ROELLIG Football Coach. LaCrosse State Teachers' Col- legeg Northwestern University. When the boys are banging each other upon the football held perhaps thev're just the characteristics incarnate which impresses our roach most in sluflents tu- day-youthful eareIreeness. Aiming to develop healthy bodies as well as healthy minds, our school has a Hourishing physical education department. Every fresh- man and sophomore takes gym funless he is unable toj. Besides this, a class in rhythm is taught each semester by Miss Lomelino. Art Department Anyone who has seen from day to day the Art case in the upper hall need not be told the merits of the Art Department. After looking at some of the displays and seeing the originality and talent embodied in many of the productions, one can easily imagine that, perhaps in the years to come, some of the struggling students will he famous art- ists and bring renown to their alma mater. The History of Art course, for the past few years somewhat of an experiment, is fast be- coming a favorite. It is now a recognized course in the high school curriculum. A com- bination of Ancient and Medieval History and Art, it strives to make history more in- teresting and to help students to a better understanding of it. ,lust as many persons give vent to their feelings through the power of music, so many others seek solace in art. Twen ty- fue In the Arctic and Antarctic regions Admiral Richard E. Byrd has made an enduring name for himself. Here he is shown just before taking off for the South Pole. He is holding an American Hag and, from the aviator Floyd Bennett's grave, a stone which he dropped off at the Pole. nm M .... M, mmm ll I IW!

EDWIN SEMBELL Class of January, 1937 , Kramer Sembell Pree p Barry As each one of these one hundred and forty-eight students was handed his 'ahonorary dismissal from thc halls of S.H.S. on the night of January twen- ty-first, he closed in his book of memoirs one of the happiest chapters of his life, although probably at the present these four years do not seem so important. There are written in this chapter memories of 'mingled happiness and disappointment, but it is safe to say that the unhappy memories will be short- lived. They will ,soon be overshadowed by the happier remembrances of close friends, teachers, parties, dances, and club life. ' We hope, though, that these students have not found the intellectual phase of high school life to be entirely obliterated by the glitter of the social whirl, for to have a well-written book of life both must be equally balanced. T ly l Class of January, 1937 SARAH ALEXANDER After some of the handwriting we've received, it was quite a relief to find Sarah's typewritten blank telling us that she had belonged to Spanish Club and to quote: I admire Lowell Thomas. MELVIN BARBRE What shall l do when l graduate? is Mclvin's plaintive plea. While in high school he worked on the Cafeteria Coun- cil and also took an active part in De Molays. RUDY BARRY If you're looking for variety, here's Rudy who is interested in the rapid pro- gress of aviation, and longs to be a forest inspector. He was vice-president of the Delphics, vice-president of the Senior Class, a Scribbler, on the Bulletin Staff, and played spring football. ROBERT BARTELS Bob is just aching to jump into poli- tics as a senator from lllinois. He cites Senator Norris as his model. No doubt activity on the pep squad has developed his political voice. PAULINE BECK All of Pauline's extracurricular ac- tivities took placc at Converse, whcre she belonged to Girl Reserves and Swastikas. She looks forward to graduation day, after which she intends to use her com- mercial training as a secretary. FRANCES BECKETT ln our opinion there is slight connec- tion, but nevertheless this future com- mercial artist is most interested in arch- aeology. ELSIE BIETSCH Wonder why Elsie crossed out the name of Ralph Buccker as her hero? Anyway she definitely says that she is waiting for graduation day and going into nnrse's training. Thirty ROBERT BOOTH Crafts Club, French Club, Delphics, de- bates, and the National Guards kept Bob mighty busy. He intends to use his hypnotic power while practicing medi- cine. LYNN BRITTON Here we have a second Flo Ziegfeld or perhaps another Clarence Darrow who was so busy with outside employment that he had no time for high school ac- tivities. FLORENCE BUECKER Too bad Florence couldn't have had her write-up in last year's book, since she also appreciates Vachel Lindsay. May she succeed in preparing her pri- mary grade children for his works. ALFRED BUMGARDNER Future Farmers of America -long may they live-trained Alfred to some day till the soil. His chosen alternative for a life occupation is to be a mechanic. KATHERINE CAN N In French Club Katherine Mparlez- voused with the best of them. She is engrossed in politics and wishes to travel abroad. JOSEPHINE CHURCH Page Dick Powell! Here's a fan who was vice-president of Transcripts and a member of G. A. A. She is closely fol- lowing the progress of radio and musical entertainment. CHARLES CLARK What a noble soul-Charles is willing to shoulder the troubles of the world and grant his services as a surgeon. He lent the school a helping hand while on Cafe- teria Council. Class of January, 1937 MARY ELLEN COCHRAN Philos, Girl Scouts, Y's Co-ed Club, Bulletin work, and the colossal pro- duction, Whither O' Youth, filled Mary Ellen's spare moments. The ranks of nurses are certainly going to be full if the hopes of many of our senior girls are fulfilled. MARIO COLANTINO To get along in the world is Mario's chief aim-could anyone choose a better one? Mario lent his talents, while in the school, to playing spring football, and his interests turned to hunting, hiking, fishing, and football. Oh! these outdoor men. GEORGE COOK How could the school ever get along without all these Cafeteria Council mem- bers? George says that he can admire just any college hero fplease definel. The lonely life of a forest ranger is all he asks of the future. SUSAN CROOKSHANK Although undecided concerning her future ambition, Susan is quite certain she idolized Pete. Pardon us if we say that sounds a little indefinite. BRUNO DEDINAS Bruno played freshman football and basketball, and varsity football for two years: is interested in all outdoor sports and politics-exercise for brain as well as ?. LLOYD DEWALL Chemistry, chemistry, and chemistry hold every bit of Lloyd's. no doubt, worthy interest. That's all the infor- mation he gave us. f ELOISE DRESSENDORFER At Feitshans she belonged to choir and C. A. A. She lent her talents to our Lotus Club and drama class plays. At last the female half of the Lind- berg family gets its due praise. PETER EASTMAN Hold your breath! Advanced Orches- tra three years, Theatre Orchestra, All Slate Orchestra, Sextette, String En- semble, French Club, Illini, and Cafe- teria Council. With all that musical ex- perience he should be able to make good in Hollywood. BILL ELDRED While you are making use of your industrial arts course as mechanic you may repair airplanes, since you are so extremely interested in all aviators. DOROTHY ELLIOTT Small town girl makes good in city! Dorothy lives in Merhanicsburg but chose our institute of learning rather than the one in her own district. Three cheers for our side! GAINES EPLING Gaines has lived in Florida and Tal- lula flllinoisj. After quitting school for two years to become a bank clerk. he came here to finish his high school education. He is now at the University of Illinois. NORMA FIEDLING If money is of such immense import- ance to Norma, we're afraid she'd have to wait a while before attaining much of it by nursing. She graced the Lotus Club, French Club, and G. A. A. with her membership. RICHARD FOX According to his activity blank, Diesel Motors seem to be this senior's chief interest, hero, and future ambition. More power to him and Diesel Motors! LOWELL FRANKLIN Every one to his own tastes but cer- tainly the Delphics haven't been dead this year, so Lowell's desire to be a mortician couldn't have arisen from that source. Thirty-one Class of Januar , 1937 HENRY FRANZ Someone always has to do most of the work and get very little credit. Hank had just surh a job as manager of the varsity football team. He also played pups and varsity basketball. GLENN FREDERICK If aviation were in the curriculum, he would have taken it. He wants to have aviation carry him far in the world. To be an army officer. preferably a flying one, is Glenn's desire. ETHEL FRIEND Ethel belonged to Thalians last year, but for some unknown reason dropped out this year. Although she has no par- ticular interests, she would like to be a stenographer. BILL GARVER Straight from Delphics and the Drama class, this young follower of science will take up the study of industrial chemistry or perhaps metallurgy Qfor those who didn't take chemistry -- what does that last nlcan?J GERALD GERLACH Aviation is this man's line. Gerald took an extensive industrial course, and hx- decided to seek his future in mechanics. An achievement as stellar as Lindberg's is his worthy goal. HERMINA HAGEL No wonder this senior had a hard time deciding who was her heroine- between two such worthy ladies as Jane Addams and Helen Keller. Add her as another on the long list of would-be slcnographers. FRANK HALPIN Frank's history courses must have meant something to him. since he is interested in theories of government. Anyone who is capable of passing chem- istry may well aim to be a chemical en- gineer. Thirty-two DONALD HANAHAN One of those brave souls who ventured to take fourth year Latin. He believes chemical engineering would he the best way to make'practieal use of his chem- istry courses. HELEN HANKINS Here's a chance for boys who are tall. dark, and handsome. Helen claims all such as her favorites. She also states her opinion tis she alone?j that 3:10 is the most interesting time in the present day world. FLORENCE HILL The task of being a secretary seems lo have captured the ambitions of a majority of our senior girls. Florence is one of those intellectual Philosg even so, all sorts of radio programs cnthrall her. ALBERT HOLZWORTH Al hopes to be a successful farmer. After finishing the agriculture course, we believe he has a good start toward his end. Freshman and sophomore cantatas also occupied his time. X GORDON HULCHER What? More Diesel Motors -f they must have some subtle fascination-espty cially for this member of the Future Farmers of America and one-time member of the band. He does grant en- gineering a point. if there should ever cease to be Diesel Motors. ELIZABETH HUMPHREY Who could ever forget Elizabeth as the witch screeching prophesies in i'Wappin Wharf --Gust acting- sto be surel. Both Theatre and Advanced Or- chestras claimed hcr presence. 1 ALVINA HURLEY It took Alvina a long time to hand in her blank, but when she did, it was well filled. She was a Philo, a Transcript, a member of the Spanish Club, a typist on the Capitoline Staff, and a freshman rep- resentative. Class of Januar , 1937 BETTY HURLHEY Another busy young lady--besides be- ing interested in politics she belonged to Senior Choir for a year during which time the Big Twelve Conference, French Club, and the drama class plays also claimed her attention. PORTER IRWIN Radio and music naturally hold first place in the mind of this soloist of the Advanced Band. We are sure he will make a success as a radio engineer. CARL JAMES Why should Carl long to be an illus- trator when he has had so much musi- cal experience? He belonged to the Band, the Theatre Orchestra, the Sax Quartette, and the Sax Sextette. He is also a member of a dance orchestra. LEONARD JAYNE Here's an unjealous young man who admires Fred MacMurray and the 1937 automobiles. He was one of those wil- ling workers on the Cafeteria Council. BOB JOHNSON Junior Choir. Wranglers, Cafeteria Council, Bulletin Ad Staff, winner of Legion Speech Contest, Fresh Football, Central Reds, City Champs, 1933, Inter- Society and Intra-Mural Debates Q2 let- ters for said debatesi, Big 12 Contest '34. What could we add? DOROTHY JORDON There's a never-ending line of pros- pective nurses in high school just pray- ing for the day when they will be ready to exchange home work for hospital work. DORTHEA KALB A new thought-va combination of Myrna Loy and Li'l Abner as heroine and hero. Perhaps some day the radio will unite their talents for you, Dor- thea. GERALDINE KELTING Musical Geraldine spent all her time practicing for and playing in our Ad- vanced Orchestra, our Theatre Orches- tra, and our String Ensembles. GEORGE KIDD Here we have a prospective book- keeper, interested in the invention of new machinery, who went up, np, up, from Junior Choir through Senior to A Cappella. HAROLD KINCAID Somehow he managed to skip the Sophomore cantala, but did his bit in the Freshman ditto. Harold is going to be a draftsman and design all the latest model automobiles. CHARLES KLOPPENBURG We've heard that one should choose one's line of thought, follow it, and here we have an excellent example. Charles is a member of the Future Farmers of America, linds farming the most interesting thing in the world and intends tn ba a farmer. DOROTHY KUNZ If traveling and seeing things hold such a fascination for you, Dorothy, why don't you try to find employment as a public stenographer on some ocean liner? GENE KUNZNICK After going to Feitshans High for three years, Gene decided to try our school for his last year. He wants to be an aeronautical engineer and Boris Karloff is his only screen hero. WILFORD KRAMER Chief of the information staff is Wilford, the editor-in-chief of the Bul- letin. He even found time to be vice- president of Quill and Scroll, Secretary of Senior Class, He in He Who Gets Slapped, and a Delphic. No wonder he is a slave to the study of news- paper editing. Thirty-three Class of January, 1937 BURNETTA LANCASTER When it comes to blowing her own born Burnetta is modest, but she is a trumpeter of note. She played in the Prep and Advanced Orchestras and the Big 12 Brass Quartet. RICHARD LARISON Dick is one of our ambitious students who is planning to go on to college. Perhaps his best girl will be angry, but Richard confided to us that his real love is Amelia Earhart. Senior Choir. LOUISE LOGUE If Louise decides to enter the movies she will not have to worry about a name. She plans to start her career as a beauty operator. DRUSILLA LONG Jumping from Junior Choir to A Cap- pella was no feat at all for Drusilla, who played in Briar Rose as a mem- ber of the latter. Florence Nightin- gale is her ideal of noble womanhood. PHYLLIS MASSEY Phyllis didn't give us any informa- tion except that she would like to be a nurse or a stenographer , so that is all we can tell you, dear public. ISABELLE MAYES Listen closely-Assistant Editor of Capitoline, Senior Girls' Council, Car- nival Capers of 1936, Freshman Repre- sentative, Pep Squad, Les Bas Bleus, and Freshman Debates. Florence Nightingale is her heroine and that causes the ques- tion of nursing to rise foremost in her mind. RUTH McKINNEY Take a bow, Mr. Lundgren. Ruth, as a member of Senior Choir and A Cappella Choir, sets you up as her hero. In the future she desires to keep closely associated with music. Thirty-four RICHARD McMURRY Richard believes that a high school education is one of the important things in life. No doubt his teachers appre- ciate his attitude. DEAN MEYERHOFF Well, if you insist, Dean played in the Advanced Orchestra, finds mechani- cal engineering worthy of his closest attention, and has a not-to-be-denied desire to own a farm. ELEANOR MIKELONIS During her freshman year Eleanor was a member of Girl Reserves. She grants church work and the duly famous Flor- ence Nightingale the uppermost of her attention. J OE MITCHELL Already Joe has found his life's work -he joined the Aviation Corps of the United States Army after graduation. Happy landings, Joe. EDITH MOORE As one of the C Cluhbists, Edith became interested in basketball and swimming. Twice she has been a Capitoline representative, and she is quite decided that she will some day be an accountant. EVELYN MOORE Yes, she's Edith's twin though they don't look very much alike. As Busi- ness Manager of the Capitoline Di- rectory StaB she worked mighty bardg even so, she had time to join Tran- scripts. VIRGINIA MOORE Virginia simply dotes on Nino Mar- tini, the arts, and international diplo- macy. To be a psychiatrist or an archae- ologist nre just two of her many ambi- tions. She warbled in Junior and A Cappella Choirs and was a member of Les Bas Bleus. Class of January, 1937 WILLA MRASAK Well, well-this Philo has the wan- der lust. In her own words, To travel to Egypt and go through ancient tombs of Egyptian kings, also to travel in a caravan through the desert. The desert love song- .IANICE O,HARA If you're looking for one of our bet- ter female athletes, look no further! behold, the President of G.A.A. and vice-president of C Club who par- ticipated in too numerous activities to mention. P. S.-A class representative and Bulletin representative. HELEN ORLOVE Although Helen did not state what kind of representative she was, she did say that she belonged to G.A.A. She studied hard in between all those foot- ball games because she intended to make use of her Industrial Arts Course. CHARLES PAULLIN For three years Charles blended musi- cal notes with first the Elementary, then the Advanced Orchestra. He daily fol- lows the Spanish Revolution and Euro- pean situation through the newspapers. Any other informationfin his own words nope , GEORGIA PETERS This is the little blonde who so skill- fully strummed the harp in Advanced Orchestra. Nor is that the extent of her talents for she sang in Junior and Senior Choirs. FRANCES PEYTON In Junior Choir Frances warbled with the best of them, in Girl Reserves she was equally active in a different way. and in the future she'll be a steno- grapher. MARGUERITE PICKERING Too bad we can't quote a little French as Marguerite did when in French Club. She listed the Freshman Cantata under miscellaneous activities-don't we all? NORMA POWERS Graduation day was the ultimate of Norma's unfulfilled desires, after which the desire to become a secretary step- ped into first place. What would Junior and Senior Choirs have done without her? EDWARD PREE That famous Eddieflii-Y fSoftball Championj, Varsity basketball and foot- ball, debate, room representative, Bul- letin representative, Senior Boys' Coun- cil, Mid-year Senior Class President. HELEN PRESSLER When Helen was asked which movie actress she liked best she replied, Oh, I just hitch my wagon to any pretty star. We hope you never hitch your wagon to a falling star, Helen. JEROME REAVLEY Even if you did erase it, we found that your greatest problem is how to get through college. Anyhow you didn't have any trouble joining Delphics or getting on the Bulletin Stalf. DOROTHY REED Dorothy put four question marks for the name of her hero, but she can't fool us. We know she didn't miss a football game all season. She said she was in Wither O' Youth fI.et's hope she didn't leave out the h deliber- ately. CALVIN RICH Now, Calvin, if you give us an empty activity blank how can you expect us to do anything for you? You never get something for nothing. We are afraid you have not learned that stern lesson from life. HILDA RIECKS Is this new Transcript Club for those who desire to be slenographers or what? Even if it isn't here's one of its mem- bers wlm fulfills the above description. Thirty- five Class of January, 1937 VIOLET RIEDESEL In Lotus Club, Violet was trusted with all the money while she held the oliire of treasurer, She lent her talents to the drama class play. KENNETH RILEY I should like to become a salesman. Well, Kenneth, there are plenty of things that have to be sold, so we're sure you won't have any trouble at all when Y0ll turn on the super-salesmanship. K. LeMOYNE ROSS If someone doesn't explain all these different types of engineers to us we'll have to take a correspondence course on the subject. He aspires to be a mechan- iral engineer. Right now be is interested in radios. RICHARD ROUSHEY Richard kept himself busy playing in Advanced Band, as president of Hi-Y, as treasurer of Spanish Club, playing on the pups basketball team, doing track work, and managing the football team. EARL RUTHERFORD Having aviation as his predominating interest and longing to be an aviator strongly enough leads us to the conclus- ion that this member of the Crafts Club is air-minded. BOB SALLENCER Here's a new angle on the farm prob- lem. This Future Farmer of America in- tends to be a prosperous farmer by using modern methods of farming. EDWARD SCI-IWARBERC W'e salute all the members of our great Advanced Band-long may it live! Edward is trying to find out just how soon we may expect another war. Thirty-six SADIE SEIDMAN Again the war problem arises, again an intended private secretary. again a member of Junior Choir, but the first of our Seniors to choose Frances Perkins for her model. EDWIN SEMBELL Why can'l some of our interested grad- uates solve this problem of the next war? Edwin wanted to play profes- sional baseball, but strangely enough he did not mention any favorite base- ball player. He was Treasurer of the Senior Class. ARLENE SEVERNS Arlene should be satisfied now that President Franklin D. Roosevelt has partial control of the political situation. Future ambition? Yes! a dietitian. VIRGINIA SISTEK The trend toward secretarial work continues as well as the longing for graduation. This time it comes from the heart and soul of a Thalian. DON SPENCER Of course Don laid himself wide open for a few wise cracks when he men- tioned Popeye as his herofwe'll just let it go at that. He was both junior and senior Vice-President of the Cafeteria Council. EVELYN SPIKRE Both talent and ambition enabled Evelyn to rise from Junior Choir through Senior Choir to A Cappella. She sang for us in the production, Briar Rose. ADDIE SPRING While in C. A. A. Addie developed the strength which she will some day use in patting clients' faces when she becomes a beauty culturist - careful, there! Class of January, 1937 FRANCES SPRINKEL Frances should appreciate her educa- tion, since she drove in from Curren each day. Nursing will be Frances' life work if she doesn't find the field too crowded with other SJ-I.S. ev-slu- dents. GEORGE STEFFEN George is a very close-moulhed hoy. This is generally thought to be a good quality hut it is hard on those trying to find out about George's life and loves. He did disclose, however, that he yearns to he an architectural engi- neer. GEORGE STENGEL George certainly did his partwfhe sang in four cantatas. Why don't you follow in the footsteps of your hero, Joe Medwick, and he a baseball player instead of an aviator? WILMA STOPPELWERTH All we need do is quote Wilma, I enjoy creative writing, find it most en- joyable, easiest thing to donfshe hopes to be famous in the literary field my- self . ROBERT STORTS From Chatham ten miles away came Bob to receive the benefits of an S.I'I.S. education. We're sure his benefits were worth more than ten miles. EDDIE SULLIVAN Throughout four years Eddie played his saxophone like a master. He parti- cipated in the Sax Sextette in '33, State Contest in '35, and the National Cun- test in '35. Futura: Ambition? Music definitely. IRIS SULLIVAN Paging all cave menflris simply uau't resist Tarzan, and sees all his moiies not less than five times. Is this the teaching of the Transcripts? BILL THOMA Don't be so modest, Bill, everyone knows you were a president of the Wranglers--.lunior Choir goes on your list also. So you admire Adolph Hitler and are intriged hy politics. Oh! ROBERT VONBEHREN Robert worked for the ever necessary Cafeteria Council. Are his interests, heroes, and amlritinns loo secret to he told? CUTTER THERRIEN Thanks for telling us that George Gumcyer was a French Ace. We never would have known. Cutter's activities included .lunior Choir. Illini, foolliall, and DeMolays. ERMA UN SBEE A bouquet for the gentle little heroine of that bold had play Wappin' Wharf . May we wish her much success as a dress designer. ETHEL WARD When you are Hying around in the air Ethel, you may look down and get a birds-eye view of the automobiles you are so interested in: that is if you aren't Hying too high. SIBYL WARREN A romantic young lady who wishes lo live in the South Sea Islands is Sihyl. Les Bas Blells, Transcripts, G.A.A., Junior Capitoline Staff, and Bulletin Stal! form her list of activities. JOHN C. WEBB Permit us to quotef- I come from Louisville, Kentucky. I got a letter on ,lunior Varsity football team and was a corporal in the winning squad in R.0.T.C. Thirty-seven Class of January, 193 ANITA WICKS Pretty little Anita, who was chosen as one of the' ten Carnival queens, he- longed to Prep Orchestra, Advanced Orchestra, Pep Squad, Les Bas Bleus, Capitoline StaH, and was a freshman representative. MILDRED WILKINS A long list for Mildred: Junior Choir, Senior Choir, Quill and Scroll, G.A.A., Junior Etude, Briar Rose, Dramusique of '35, Carnival Pageant Uulietj, and debates, ending with Robert Taylor as hor hero. BETTY JUNE WYATT And we add to our list another songster fall three Choirsj, who be- longed to G.A.A. and Transcript Club. She made a public appearance in Briar Rose. With all that rhythm in her soul, she should make an excellent dancing instructor. BLAIN MORGAN Three broken ribs sort oi ruined a rising football career, but anyhow Blaine still claims Bill Roellig as his hero. He is puzzled by the question What Mr. Roosevelt is going to do for the Youth . BETTE BRITTIAN lf you want a personification of pep. here you have it. This admirer of Mrs. Wally Simpson faren't we alll is another of our aspiring nurses. Thi: ty-eight KATHRYN SHANK Kathyrn graduated mid-year, so it's a little hard to get information con- cerning her. Did you know that she's now married? EVELYN ORMSBY During her first two years Evelyn belonged to Swastikas and G.A.A. after which she devoted most of her time attending movies and dances. Lindbergh and Irene Dunne-hero and heroine, respectively. BILL SEAY Have you ever noticed those cute little drawings in the Bulletin? Well, that's Bill's work. He, also, was a Quill and Scroller. COLIN McGAW The spunkiest member of our foot- ball team also played basketball and sang in the Senior Choir. He would certainly go places even if he weren't going to be an aviator. FRANCES GORIS Even though Frances does want to be a stenographer, we'll bet she would make a good wife after having taken a homemaking course. She really meant it when she said school work was her chief interest. OFFICERS President ........................,........... DICK YocoM Vice President ......, ..,..... J OHN H. WOLAVER Secretary .......... ............. P AGE STEVENS Treasurer ......... ....... B ILL CAVANAGH Class of May, 1937 Yocom Stephens Wolaver Cavanagh Gyrations in a Senior,s mind two hours before graduation: Two down and one to go. Baccalaureate Service and Recognition Assembly behind me and graduation before me. Too had we couldn't graduate in the new arsenal-streamlined class, streamlined building. Oh well, we get to wear the new home-owned caps and gowns anyhow. This is one graduation at which the folks wonit be able to go to sleep. The Reverend A. Ray Grummon is too grand and entertaining a speaker. Wonder what what he'll say about us, past, present, and future. Can't be anything terrible, because we're a pretty good bunch, you must admit. You're skeptical? Now, see here, how many of us made National Honor Society? Fifty-six and we're not book worms eitherg look at the number of husky outstanding athletes that populate our ranks. Nor do we drag on the social whirl-wheel. 0ld Man Depression may have knocked the extra five cents' worth off our lunch trays, but he certainly didn't knock the confidence out of us. So I say, I-Iere's to cwe, the class of 1937' I Thirty-nine Class of May, 1937 MARGARET ADAMS While in Junior and A Cappella Choirs and as one of the cast of Briar Rose, Margaret put her heart and soul into her singing. Quid Nunc fsuch highbrowishnessl Sub-Deb Club occupied her spare time. MILLICENT ADKINSON At present, Milly is looking for uliice work, but she longs for the day when she may he a nurse. She confesses her interest is in reading about research in medicine. BILL ALLEN With much dillicully we managed to discover that Bill was a cello player in our Advanced Orchestra. We'll bet music is his ambition. GLENN ALLEY One would think, since Glenn is so interested in aviation. that he'd want lo be an aviator, but then perhaps he is one ol those people who keep their feet on the ground and their heads in the clouds. LETHA ALLEY The affair of Mrs. Simpson and the ex-King Edward has even drawn the attention of this future illustrator away from her hero, the handsome Robert Taylor. She was a member ol C.A.A. JOHN ANDREW Such a brave, bold manfJohn wants lo start where Martin Johnson stopped. Three years ot' Orchestra, Bulletin photographer. Cafeteria Council, and Junior Capitoline Statf were his main activities. ROBERT ARMBRUST Alter playing in the second band, Robert decided that he is interested in music, especially jazz. Some day you'll find him flying one of the big passenger planes. Forty DON ARMBRUSTER Here's Don, a former track man. He longs to be a salesman for a tent ami awning company in Denver. But that comes natural to him. EDITH ASCHAUER Remember Edith? She's the young lady who got timely news for the Bulletin. No doubt she inserted a few French phrases, picked up at the meet- ings ol the French Club. MARY FRANCES AYLING If high grades mean anything, Mary Frances should have no trouble at all in becoming a business executive. She was active in the Les Bas Bleus and the High School Girl Scouts. EDWARD BAER There's nothing little about Eddie: his heroine is Kate Smith. We don't know just what a C. C. accountant is, but anyhow this senior chose it as his goal. RUTH BAKER After chanting in all three choirs and Briar Rose, Ruth decided that she will follow the same line of work. Her idol is Charles A. Lindbergh. RAMONA BALDES Ramona had the snooping nose of a journalist and the sinewy muscles of il G.A.A. girl. She's a hero worsbipper fthe Duke of W'indsor is her object of adoration. DOROTHY BALES Nothing new! Another would-be nurse, who idolizes Charles A. Lindbergh and lends her hearty approval to the atlair of Wallis Simpson and ex-King Edward llll. MORTON BARKER W'hat a man! After four years in band, he longs to play the piano like Eddy Duehin. Frankenstein is tops with him-well, maybe so. RALPH BARTHOLOMEW Guess Ralph must read detective stories: J. Edgar Hoover is his hero. Ralph will make his fame as an electrical engineer in distant Spain. DON BARTON Even Delphics and the Advanced Band conldn't make Don serious. Alas, he refused to claim anyone but Donald Duck as his hero. Who was named for whom? ESTHER BAUMGARDNER Esther was quite an addition to both Junior and Senior Choirs. Typing is supposed to have rhythm-no douht when she's a stenographer she'll sing as she works. LEO BENANTI Leo worked on our Bulletin Stall. but when he graduates he intends to hecome a skilled aviator and follow the news instead of writing it. ARLENE BENNETT One of those smooth people and a mighty active one. too: Arlene was president of Les Bas Bleus, a member of the French Club, on the Senior Girls' Council, and on the Prom Com- mittee in '36. MARY BERBERET Although Mary didn't mention it. we know that she's quite an athlete. Let's hope her bookkeeping won't keep her inside all of the time. Class of May, 1937 ERMA BIANCO During her three years at Riverton High School, Erma emoted in the sopho- more and junior plays. Another addi- tion to the rapidly growing list of nurses. NORMAN BIESENTHAL Like an ugly monster the name of Diesel engines keeps appearing before us. Even this Future Farmer longs to spend his days working with them, MARGARET BIRNBAUM Belonging to Junior and A Cappella Choirs and C.A.A. didn't keep Margaret busy enough, so she joined two out-of- school organizationsfffSuh-Deb and Eta Beta Phi. ELEANOR BISSELL To vamp a good looking guy with a lot of money is Eleanor's ambition. While at Ypsilanti High School she helonged to dramatic elnly and the G.A.A. HOWARD BLALOCK A had hold pirate in Wappiu' Wharfngthat was Howard. He did other things too: namely, played in the Preparatory Band and joined the DeMolays. MILDRED BLAKEY Mildred spent her first three years at Pawnee where she won a dramatic reall- ing contest and was a member of the Clee Clulr. Here Junior Etude Cluh expanded her appreciation ol music. ELSIE BOEHNER No wonder Elsie is interested in sports. G.A.A. did not occupy her time, so she joined Quid Nune Sub-Deh Club and the Rainhow girls. F arty-one Class of ay, 1937 GENEVIEVE. BOHRMAN Here are two G.A.A. girls in a row. Genevieve can't find words descriptive enough to give due praise to the illus- trious Katherine Cornell. HILDEGARDE BOJARZIN One step higher and Hildegarde would have been tops both in C.A.A. and Thalians. Don't you worry Hildegarde, that's a very good start. EMILY BOOTH More praise to our orchestra when it fosters musicians such as this one, who also swelled the ranks of the French Club. MYRA ALLAN BOTHWELL If there's anything you'd like to know about Scottish history, just ask this Philo. That Allan is the real McCoy. Civil engineering, of all things, is her goal. ROSEMARIE BRADLEY Rosemarie intends to bury herself in a laboratory and hunt for little bitty bacteria. We lfnow that some day the Thalians and Franch Club will be proud to claim you as an ex-member. ELAINE BRANER If Elaine is able to teach her music students to sing like Grace Moore she will really have accomplished some- thing. G.A.A. activities turned her at- tention tn various sports. DOROTHY BRANER Dorothy decided to be shy, and re- fused to give us the least bit of in- formation about herself. Never mind- we'll find out! F orty-two LAVARNE BRANER May I quote this member of the orchestra in regard to his future ambi- tion? Fm not sure-I aim to make myself fit for any occasion. A .lack- of-all-trades! REGINALD BRODERICK Reginald is our friend for lifeg he really gave us information. Besides working up to carrying Uncle Sam's mail, he enjoys seeing Gary Cooper and Rochelle Hudson. ' ANNA MARIA BROWN We admire Anna Maria. She is going to teach that difficult subject, mathe- matics. After five years as a Girl Scout she decided that her ideal was Mrs. A. E. Putnam. ESTELLA BROWN We will state that one of the differ- ent things Estella is interested in is Bob, her hero. She sang both in Junior :md in A Cappella Choirs, anrl added her talent to Briar Rose. EVA FAYE BROWN No wonder Eva Faye longs to be a physical education teacher. She be- longed to the G.A.A., C Club, and the Y Sports Council. P. S.: Music fascinates her. EVELYN BROWN In the Sewing Club, Evelyn found her calling to be that of a designer. During her four years at S.H.S., she served as a representative for the Bul- letin and the Capitoline. MARVIN BROWN Marvin was so taken up with the Delphic Literary Society that he con- fined all his time and energy to it. That is4not including dances and dates. MURIEL BROWN We hope that someday Muriel will fulfill her ambition to be stewardess, and will be able to ily under the au- thority of Amelia Earhart. RALPH BUECKER Need we tell you that Ralph played freshman and varsity football? Mem- bership in Future Farmers influenced him to strive to become a dairy farmer. MARY FRANCES BYERLINE A musically-minded young lady. Mary Frances sang in Junior, Senior, and A Cappella Choirs, Briar Rose, and he- longed to Junior Etude. P. S.-and G.A.A. LORRAINE CABOOR Well, Lorraine, perhaps you're cor- rect, rhythm class might be an athletic subject. Anyhow, a girl who is inter- ested in no homework is one after our hearts. AGNES CAMPBELL If you ask us, there is an over- abundance of S.H.S. seniors who be- lieve that silence is golden. and that group includes Agnes. ADELE CAPES Adele belonged to Junior Etude, Drama Class, and a dancing school to aid her in acquiring a good founda- tion for the future -at which time she will be an accomplished musician. HARRY CARROLL The Peace Conference in South Amer- ica interested Harry, who was in Illini and Whither O' Youth. He believes Capitoline contest winners should re- ceive more credit. We agree, Harry. Class of Ma , 1937 ALBERT CARTER Behold. a basketball playerftall, dark, and handsome. He placed his hero, Napoleon Bonaparte, on a pedestal. fWell, he needed it, didn't he?j CHARLES CASTLES Charles was a hearty member of our swimming team. A versatile person, he also sang in Junior Choir. All his spare time was spent studying the development of television and air- planes. JACK CATLIN The staff was over-anxious on this one. .lack doesn't graduate until next year. You'll see him back again then. BILL CAVANAGH Ready, go! Vice-President and Sec- retary of Delphics, Senior Boys' Coun- eil, Freshman, Pups, and Varsity Basketball, Varsity football, Secretary of Junior Class, and a Senior Class otficer. HOWARD CHRISTINEQ A little man who grew and accom- plished big Vthings. He was in Junior, Senior, and A Cappella Choirs, in Briar Rose. Wranglers, Freshman Football Manager, Bulletin and Session Room Representative. MARGUERITE CLARK. Here we have an ex-student of har- mony who enjoys orchestral music in which she intends to someday partici- pate as a pianist. HARRY COE For a hoy whose future ambition hasn't incited him yet. Harry accom- plished quite a bit as a member of Prep Orchestra, Advanced Orchestra, Senior Choir, Delphics, and in Briar Rose, and Wappin' Wharf. F orty-three Class of .la , 1937 PEARL JEAN COHEN Associate Editor of Capitolinc, Pres- ident of French Club, Senior Girls' Council, freshman debate. intersociety debate, Pep Squad, Bulletin and Cap- itoline representative, Les Bas Bleus, leading part in Whither 0' Youth. Nuff said l ELOISE COLEMAN In which '4Teaeh gains another ad- mirer. Junior, Senior, and A Cappella Choirs, Briar Rose. Whither 0' Youth, and Big Twelve representative make up Eloise's list. GEORGIA MAE COLVIN Designing equals Georgia's ambition. Quill and Scroll, Freshman Dancing Club, Girls' Athlelir Association, and Girl Scouts were her main activities. MARJORIE CONLON Marjorie picks out quite neat tunes on the piano and her accordiau. What patience she must have! She accom- panies the .lunior Choir, besides be- longing to Philos and Junior Etude. POLLYANN COOPER Pretty Polly found that outside ac- tivities kept her so husy that Les Bas Bleus and Le Cerelo Francais were the only school organizations for which she had time. FRANCES COSTELLO If you are in need of a really good stenographer this Transcript will qual- ify. She scans the paper daily for news of politics and ex-King Edward. HOWARD COX This is our first budding artist, so stop, look, and listen. Since he likes baseball, maybe he will paint a sur- realist picture adding a dash of Charles Lindbergh, his hero. F arty- four WILMA ,CRANE What does Buffalo have that we don't have? Wilma Crain. But she didn't want us lo feel slighted so she came here to school. Come hack and visit ns often. GENEVA CRAVENS Some day Geneva is going to give Ina Ray Hutton some- competition. She was in Junior Choir, A Cappella Choir, Philos, Briar Rose, and Junior Cap- itoline Staff in her four years of high school. GEORGEVA CULBERTSON Georgia didn't bother with minor choirs-she started in A Cappella Choir, and backed up her musical trend by joining Junior Etude. Wotlldn't you knows-she's prarticing to he an opera star. LEX CULVER And Lex grew up! As a freshman he was awarded a large part, as a young- ster, in the senior class play. Return of Peter Grimm. In later yrars he crooned in Junior Choir and wrangled in the Wranglers. BYRON DAVENPORT Something new. Byron's hero is L. K. Davis. Another busy personfCafeteria Council, L'Whilher O' Youth, Senior Boys' Choir, Senior Choir, A Cappella Choir, Big 12 -Music Festival. FRANCES DAVIS I just ain't saying, says Frances. Well, we're not quoting her, but she did not give ns a word of information con- cerning herself. MILLICENT DAVIS W'hile in Girl Reserves and Girl Scouts, Millicent learned all an out-door girl should know. Let's hope she will be able to catch up with her hero, Jesse Owens. VIRGIL DE CROIX Since Virgil claims to be interested in both baseball and money, it didn't take much detective work for us to dis- cover he intends to be a professional baseball player. JANE DILLER All hail-Jane-Carnival Queen, Prep and Advanced Orchestras, Pep Squad, Senior Girls' Council fpresidentj , French Club, Les Bas fvice-presidentj, and Assistant Photograph Editor of the Capitoline. WILLIAM DILLON Personally, we believe that being a coach is a much safer occupation than that of a referee, but then every man to his own choice. Hobby? Sports, of course. EVELYN DISHER Some of our graduates are right up to date and have decided to be comp- tometerists. Reading upon all the im- portant news of the day must be hard on Evelyn's eyes. LYLE DITSON While on Cafeteria Council Lyle learned the act of serving the public. In the future he will continue to serve, but in the capacity of a surgeon. MILDRED DIXON When Mildred finally realizes her am- bition to be a stenographer, we're sure that she'l1 find television a new aid. But what about those moments when you answer the phone all dressed up in your best cold cream? MEAD DIXON What a sense of humor! This Delphic, this Capitoline Assistant, this DeMolay is interested in finances, Jean Harlow, and automobiles. And on top of that, Mae West is his ideal. Class of May, 1937 MARY LOUISE DODD With all the musical training this Transcript has had, one would think that music would be her goal. Note-Junior, Senior, and A Cappella Choirs, Briar Rose, and Whither 0' Youth. RUTH DUDDLESTEN You're correct, this is the little lady who plays the piano. She also can sing as proved by her two years in A Cap- pella Choir, plus Junior Etude. DOROTHY DUNLAP If you follow in the steps of Greta Garbo, we're afraid you won't make a very good newspaper reporter. We're sure you won't have to worry about graduating. LOIS DURHEIM Since Lois is interested in person- ality, she finds that her hero varies. Why shouldn't it, she being the little lady with all the originality? She was Photograph Editor of the Capitoline, a Senior Girls' Counciler, and a French Club member. JOHN EGGLESTON If John can't be a good radio en- gineer he'd just as soon not be one at all. He wrote for the Bulletin and chiseled and carved for the Crafts Club. GEORGE EGIZII Maybe, when George becomes an aviator, he will be able to fly low and watch all the sports, in which he is so interested, without paying admission. MARY LILLIS EMERY A long, long list: Advanced Orchestra, Theatre Orchestra, String Sextet for Big Twelve, All State Orchestra, Lcs Bas Bleus, Junior Etude, Senior Girls' Council, and Solo Club. F orty-five Class of May, 1937 QUENTIN ENGEL We know you have a heroine, Quen- tin, even with all those other activi- ties: Senior Choir, Briar Rose, Vlran- glers, Hi-Y, and above all, freshman basketball, track, and football, and Var- sity basketball and football. WILLIAM ENGELBRETSEN Sorry, but we must repeat. This time it's a member of the Cafeteria Council, who thinks life without Diesel engines wouldn't be worth the while. BOB ENOCHS Bob joined Delphics, worked on the advertising staff of the Bulletin, and debated as a freshman. He follows horse races and enjoys attending them. RITA ERDMANN Again a Thalian, again a Transcript, and a prospective secretary. lt's begin- ning to seem to us that we'rr just going around in circles. MARY ERVIN Bookkeeping and Bing Crosby. book- keeping and Bing Crosby---the thoughts of which never fat least very seldoml leave the mind of Mary. DeWITT EWING While within the fair portals of S. H. S., Dewitt played in Advanced Bandg but some day he is going to be a tool and die fwhat?J maker. MURIEL FAIRMAN Petite Mimi was never idle a moment. No wonder, look at her activities--Les Bas Bleus, French Club, Capitoline Rep- resentative, Assistant Business Manager of the Capitoline, and Sigma Epsilon in Chicago. F arty-six EDWIN FASTER Here's a future undertaker whose hero is L. K. Davis. In S. H. S. he was Treasurer of the Capitoline Staff and in another high school he made the freshman basketball ten. MARY JANE FEE French Club, Bulletin Representative, and Junior Capitoline Assistant were Mary Jane's high school activities. And believe us she really got around in out- side activities! NEILE FERGUSON If you ever want to train to bowl, just call on this senior boy, who tells us basketball, track, and softball should go on his list of activities. VIVIAN FERGUSON As a surgical doctor under eminent Dr. Charles Mayo, Vivian will seek a place in medical records work. She started right by building up in our own G. A. A. IMY FEUER In the future whenever you're in trouble, call for Imyg he's going tu be a lawyer, and all tied up in politics at that. He played in Advanced and Theatre Orchestras. FARRELL FIEDLER Skip gand can he sing. Activities? A Cappella Choir, Senior Choir, the Octette, Dramusique of '36, Briar Rose as lead, He Who Gets Shipped, Junior Etude, Wranglers, a class repre- sentative. JAMES FISHER James wrote articles for the big. husy Bulletin and spattered them withFreneh phrases. Oh, yes, he was an active part of the French Club. EVELYN FISHMAN Since Evelyn is interested in people, she mingled with them a great deal in S. H. S. as a freshman representative, Les Bas llleus, a melnber of French Club, and a yeller in the Pep Squad. BERNADINE FLECK And still another prospective secre- tary. Bernadine spent all her time and energy participating in the vigorous ac- tivities of the Girls' Athletic Associa- tion. THELMA FOSTER If ever your nerves are shot, just seek the company of Thelma. Shc's one of those quiet, soothing people, Lotus received the benefit of her presence. LORRAINE FRANK We are not at all surprised to learn that Lorraine is going to be a dancer. She thinks a school with no home work would top the seven wonders of thc world. ALLYN FRANKE When will Mussolini and Hitler get killed? asks Allyn. We're afraid that would be a ditlieult question to answer. Allyn intends to win fame either as a lawyer or a politician. EVELYN FRANKLIN lt's Evelyn, who always has a twinkle in her eye. ls she Irish? Transcripts claimed her one of their best members. ALBERTA FRIER , Here is Alberla's picture, but Alberta is not here, so we'll hope you knew her and weren't depending on us for in- formation. Class of May, 1937 JANE FRENCH Behold one of our most popular sen- iors! Jane had a full schedulefSenior Choir, Les Bas Bleus, Whither 0' Youth, C. A. A., and one of the beauty maids in our Carnival Queen Contest. VIRGINIA FREYMUTH Transcripts and Thalians were hon- ored with Virginia's membership. She is going to be a stenographer or a sec- retary. Same difference! ISADORE FRIEDMAN When Isadore played the violin in Advanced Orchestra or otherwise, every- one stopped to listen. He is charmed by cute Simone Simon. FRED FRY Mark Peterman wins all Fred's praise. but tbat's not unusual. When Fred's a slraftsman we hope all his work will be as successful as that of his hero. LUELLA FUITEN Quite a musical young lady. Luella played her violin in Prep Orchestra, Theatre Orchestra, and Advanced Or- chestra. She was also a Ilnlletin repre- sentative and a C. A. A. member. DUANE FULTZ Duane, that busy man about school, fWranglers, Senior Boys' Council, Foot- ball, Basketball, zmd' Traekj, wants lo be a politician: at least his ambition was to find an easy job with large nay- UNA BELLE FURROW From now on Una Belle will spend her days thumping the keys of a type- writer and attempting to be a model stenographer. Forty-seven Class of ay, 193 JANE GASAWAY No wonder our A Cappella Choir is such a success, since it is composed of young ladies like Jane, who has also sung in Junior and Senior Choirs and 'Briar Rose. She was a Big Twelve representative and in Whither 0' Youth. MIRIAM GATES After being in Junior Choir, Senior Choir, drama class, and Carnival Capers, Miriam has set her mind on becoming a teacher and studying music. BOB GEATZ Here you see a former Bulletin rep- resentative, one of the cast of Whither 0' Youth, a former member of the Elementary Band, and the treasurer of Future Farmers f l1ut not a farmer, he hastened to add. EVELYN GENEWITCH Junior Choir, A Cappella Choir, 'Briar Rose, May Festival '36, Big Twelve Representative, Senior Class play, Scholarship Society, and grades that made the rest of us how our heads in shame. JAMES GILLESPIE Careful! Senior Choir, A Cappella Choir, Briar Rose, Junior Etude, Spanish Club, Hi-Y, Senior Boys' Coun- cil, Art Editor of the Capitoline, Cafe- teria Council, representative-the end. ARTHUR GILMORE With Arthur engrossed in politics, ierha s he'1l be able to get a job as an l P electrical engineer on some government project. LOREN GILMORE Since Loren is interested in aviation and intends to be a pilot, one would think his hero might be Lindbergh, hut he claims he has none. F arty-eight MARY KATHERINE GOLDEN If you want to hold Mary Katherine's attention, talk to her about music and musicians, especially Nelson Eddy. She was a member of the Amateur Musical Club. GARNET R. GOUVEIA Garnet admires Springfield's own spe- cial hero, Abraham Lincoln. She romped in C. A. A. and did whatever Sub-Delis do in the Quid Nunc Sub-Deb Club. JACQUELINE GRAY Jacky couldn't find enough to do as a Thalian and Le Cercle Francais mem- ber, so she is going to become an author. MARJORIE GR EIDER It took three high schools to keep Marjorie activeg i. e., Concert and Theatre Orchestra QS. H. SJ. Concert and Football Bands fVendredil, Oper- etta and Student Council fChampaignl. VIRGINIA GROVES Maybe when Virginia becomes a com- mercial artist she will be able to create an even more famous creature than Mickey Mouse. G. A. A. and Junior Choir were her listed activities. DOROTHY GRUNDLER Well, stop, look, and listen. Dorothy's hero is Tarzan. During her high school course she was a member of C. A. A. and of llainbow Girls. HARRY HADDEN Every time there is a fire, you mdy expect to see Harry riding atop one of the fastest fire engines, 'cause he is going to enter the fire department as soon as possible. MARGARET HAENIG During her four years in S. H. S. Margaret belonged to C Club, .lunior Choir, Senior Choir, A Cappella Choir, and to top that off she longs to be a housewife. WILLIAM HARDY Bill was a steadfast member of the Crafts Club, and as a result he wishes to' be no less than a mechanic for the renowned Charles A. Lindbergh. GEORGE HART Even if George did belong to Del- phics, Pep Squad, Future Farmers of America, and Young Democrats Club, he will find it a mighty hard task to make the entire United States a com- plete Democracy. MAYBETH HART To be successful shouldn't be at all hard for charming Maybeth. She added her bit to the intersociety de- bates, Les Bas Bleus fchairman of pro- gramsl, Pep Squad, and Senior Girls' Council. MILDRED HARTSHORN After two years of G. A. A. aetivi- ties Mildred's feet should be able to stand the strain that nursing places on them. She also worked for, or should we say on, the Bulletin. CARL HASHMAN Carl thinks Gary Cooper personifies all that a real man should he. The affair of Wally Simpson and the Duke of Windsor also catches his attention. GLADYS HATCH At least Gladys 05ers herself a va- riety of ambitions from which to choose. She would he satisfied as a clerk, or filer, or designer. John Trent is her hero. Class of May, 193 LOUISE HATTENHAUS Here's a young lady who had patience enough to accompany those freshman and sophomore cantatas. The Thalians and Transcripts considered her quite an addition to their groups. ALMA LEE HAWES When Alma Lee was a junior she worked very hard as a Capitoline as- sistant. She added her bit to the Bul- letin Staff and the Pep Squad. ORVILLE HAYS All the information that Orville gave us was that he's interested in sport al:- tivities. That's enough to occupy any- one's attention. MARGARET HEINEKE If you're looking for a busy young lady, look no further. This is her list: A Cappella Choir, Secretary of Les Bas Bleus, Treasurer of Senior Girls' Coun- cil, Cafeteria Council, and Pep Squad. AGNES HEMBREIKER Agnes Ann spent most of her time translating French in Le Cercle Fran- cais and events of the day into news for Miss Graham's pride and joy, the Bulletin. RAY HENDERSGN Here is sparse information, but never- theless information: Ray is enthused about aviation and intends to ily. Thank you, please. LAWRENCE HENDRICKS Because this ex-Spanish Club member finds all sciences absorbing, he has de- termined to study the science of radio as a radio engineer. Forty-nine Class of May, 1937 EDWARD HERTER Edward ever turned his thoughts sky- ward. He intends to accomplish some- thing new and different in the line of aviation. ALICE HESTER Wonder what type of books Alice was so engrossed in reading, while she wasn't attending Philo meeting, acting for drama class, or engaging in verbal debate fights. RAYMOND HICKEY Raymond must have been so busy that he didn't have time to list all his activities for us. Better luck next time. FERREN HINDS While on the Cafeteria Council, Fer- ren dished out food and some day when he's in the mail service he'll be all practiced up to dish out letters. MARY LOU HODGKINSON Mary Lou won't be satisfied to become just a plain nurse, but she must act as a dietitian to prescribe the food for the whole force. JAMES HOLLIDAY From James we received a neat printed blank telling us he had been a Delphic, on the Bulletin Stad, a tango dancer in W'hither 0' Youth, played Delphic football, baseball, and basket- hall. MONA HOLMES Most of Mona Ruy's activities took place in West Frankfort, Illinois, where she belonged to the Orchestra and the Spanish Club. Our G. A. A. claimed her membership' Fifty - JACK HOLT Since Jack is interested in radio and television, we aren't at all surprised to know that his ambition is to secure a radio operator's license. ' JAMES HOOKER Although James worked on the Bul- letin Staff, he is going to devote his time to traveling. JAMES HORNBACK Some day you'll find James out in the commercial business world as a compe- tent bookkeeper. While in S. H. S. he served as a Bulletin representative. BETTY HORRELL Betty lands the famous Amelia Ear- hart and wishes to follow as closely in her footsteps as possibleg that is, after she has successfully completed her high school course.

LEO HUNT Leo is an outdoor man. who is going to be a forester. He's been studying on the new developments in means of transportation.

LOUISE INGERSOLL Another Junior Etude member, who jumped from Junior Choir to A Cap- pella, is Louise. She chose the pair, Jeannette McDonald and Nelson Eddy, as her ideals. CLIFFORD JABUSCH In Whither O' Youth Clifford was a triple personalityAof Columbus, Phi- dious, and Von Hindenberg. Off the stage he's a Senior Boys' Counciler and a DeMolay. MARY JAKOVICH Jackie was an officer of that rising club, Transcripts. Some day she's going to thrill the world in the roll of a second Eleanor Powell. BILL JAGEMAN Well, well! Bill finds females the most interesting subject in the world-- we'll admit they are the hardest to understand. He made up a part of the mighty cast of Whither 0' Youth. EILEEN JAMESON When Eileen has made good grades and obtains a job for the summer, her immediate hopes will be fulfiled. She kept busy in the cafeteria as a mem- ber of the Cafeteria Council. .IULIANNE JENNINGS This young lady, who won't be satis- fied until she is the owner of a blue Ford roadster, added her support to the Philos, Whither O' Youth, and freshman and sophomore debates. She also graced the court of the Carnival queen. Class of May, 1937 ROBERT JONES Drafting is the occupation at which Bob is going to spend his life. Air- planes will serve as a hobby with which to fill in the spare moments. LENA JORDANO All this controversy about the Su- preme Court has turned Lena's attention to the subject. She is another one of our seniors who is a prospective nurse. EVELYN KALB In Les Bas Bleus and French Club, Kalbie was an outstanding active member. Some day she's going to be an interior decorator. GENEVIEVE KANE What could be better? A future news- paper reporter who is interested in peo- ple. Working on the Bulletin Staff gave her the writing fever. LOREN KEIL When Loren graduates, he's going to work as a machinist on the newer type of airplanes. While in high school he carried on the necessary work of thc Cafeteria Council. BILL KERR After singing in Junior Choir, Bill shifted his attention from music to sports, especially horseshoes. In the near future he's going to see the world. RITA KIENZLER Having belonged to Thalians and Transcripts fas Treasurerl, Rita decided to settle down to a government job. Yes, Rita, Nelson Eddy is a bachelor. Fifty-one Class of May, 193 BERTHA KINNEAR Everything interests BerthaAno won- der she strengthened the ranks oi' Sen- ior Choir, Briar Rose, Les Bas Bleus, French Club fvice-presidentl, Senior Girls' Council fsecretaryl, and the Pep Squad. PETE KLOGA It's too bad these members of Ad- vanced Orchestra don't mention the in- struments they play so that we can sing their praises. Electrical engineering will find Pete an ardent worker. VERA KLOR At New Berlin High School Vera sang in the Glee Club and played in the Girls' Athletic Association. All her S. H. S. activities were confined to drama class. DAVID KNIGHT After finishing his four years at S. H. S., during which time he was four times a Bulletin representative and on the Cafeteria Council, Dave feels that he has really accomplished some- thing. CLARA KOLIS If you are looking for a dress de- signer or a stenographer who will en- joy dancing after work hours, we are sure Clara will lill the position. WALTER KOPATZ One of our own students-none other than Skipi' Fiedlerfis Walter's ideal. He believes he is best adapted to the occupation of bookkeeping. JACK KORNFELD Much as we loath to mention it, ,lack's blank listed no activities except cantatas. He added that he is study- ing the phases of the Spanish revolu- tion. Filly-two MILDRED KRAMER Here's something different! Mildred claims to have played in our band for a whole year. We'll bet you any odds that Mr. Patrick dicln't know about it. EMILY KRELL These prospective stenographers are mighty lucky to have belonged to G. A. A. They'll never have to worry what to do on their vacations. ERNEST KUNZ I When Lanphier High was built, Ernest took one look at its gym and dashed right out to it for the rest of his sen- ior year. MORTON LANCER Morton wants to be a successful jour- nalist, so he's planning to get a college education to prepare for this career. He's been on the Bulletin Advertising Staif, a member of the Wranglers, and in freshman and sophomore cantatas. TOMMY LANGSTON Not only did Tommy belong to Cafeteria Council, he was even an of- ficer. Some day he's going to print all the news that's fit to print. FLORENCE LARSON Our Transcript Club took the place of the Glee Club and the Girls' Athletic Association at some other school-the name of which she failed to mention. GERALDEAN LASSWELL Geraldean participated in all the ac- tivities of the Girls' Athletic Associa- tion, Philos, Senior Girls' Council, and the Girl Scouts. AURELIA LAURENZANA In the Pbilomachian Literary Society --note the dignity-Transcripts, and in- tramural and intersociety debates, Au- relia found sufficient outlet for her talents. JOSEPHINE LAYSON I'm just a dabbler at everything, states Josephine, a member of Junior and A Cappella Choirs, Junior Etude, and Mariners. Who is this nice tall basketball player whom she idolizes? FRANCES LAUTERBACH Why do these musical ladies insist upon being stenographers? Frances says she will do just that and turn her back on the training of Junior and A Cap- pella Choirs, Briar Rose, and Big 12 Conference. BETTY ANN LEAF One of our most popular Carnival queens-Betty Ann-member of Ad- vanced Orchestra, Philos, Senior Girls' Council, Junior Etude, and the Capito- line Staff. Sorry, Betty4Johnny Weis- muller is married. MARVIN LEE Selling ads for the Bulletin is no easy task even for Marvin. He turns his journalistic eyes toward the news of a future World War, aviation, and air conditioning. ROBERT LEMONS Although Bob was in Senior Choir, A Cappella Choir, Briar Rose, and the Dramusique of '35, he is going to be an undertaker in preference to being a singer. DOROTHY LESTER Says this C. A. A. girl, Present day interests of mine are new and better rules for athletics and some athletes themselves, football players especially. Class of May, 193 ELLEN LETOURNEAU Taken it from us, Ellen is a beautiful writer. Her dancing, bridge, and sports are the most enjoyable activities in the world. FREDA LINN Why is it all these athletic girls in- tend to take up office work? HC Club and the C. A. A. were Freda's chief S. H. S. activities. ELEANOR LLOYD Longy kept herself on the go in Les Bas Bleus fTreasurerJ, C. A. A., Cafeteria Council, Le Cercle Francais, intersociety debates, Senior Girls' Council, and the Pep Squad. MARCELLA LOCKWOOD Not a moment of Marcella's time was wasted. No sir, she spent it in the Preparatory, Advanced, and Theatre Orchestras, G. A. A., Philos, and Transcripts. IRENE LOHR lt seems that T's rule Irene's life. She belonged to Thalians and Tran- scripts, and teaching is to be her occu- pation. NELLIE LOWE Nellie was the secretary of those in- dispensables, the Cafeteria Council. She is another would-be comptometer op- erator, who admires Robert Taylor. DWIGHT LOWER Here's another boy who skipped out on us without revealing his hero or ambition. Maybe, if you try hard, you will be able to guess. Fifty-three Class of May, 1937 LANSING LYNN Here's another musician. Lansing sang his way up from Junior Choir to A Cappella Choir, and belonged to Jun- ior Etude in order to learn more about music. GEORGE MACKENROTH At Carbondale George played football and belonged to the trark team. V'hile here he helped till the ranks of first Senior, then A Cappella Choir. Hero? F. D. Roosevelt. KATHYRN MADDEN Even if Kitty won't tell us her hero, we'll bet he has blond hair and blue eyes, She was an outstanding member of Les Bas Bleus and Senior Girls' Council, besides being one of the school's beauty queens. JANET MADISON Somehow Janet always managed to look perfectly groomed, which is quite a feat for anyone. She's consistent, loo-the same boy for her whole high school course. LENORE MAGILL Having studied the advance in medi- ral science, Lenore chooses Madam Curri as her ideal. Thalian, Prep Orchestra, and A Cappella Choir claimed her mem- hership. JOE MAGGIO For two years Joe's voice has swelled forth among the ranks of those in A Cappella Choir. The reorganization of the government is a most absorbing question to him. HOWARD MARKS Take a bow, Mr. Lundgrenfagain your name appears opposite the hero blank. Howard's listed activities include Senior Choir, A Cappella Choir, Dra- musique of 1935, Cafeteria Council, and football. Fifty-four HOWARD MAURER After playing soft ball on the Future Farmers of America team, Howard im- mediately decided his aim was to be- rome a professional baseball player. ALVIN MAVIS Prepare yourself for a long list. Ele- mentary Band, Elementary Orchestra, President of Future Farmers of Amer- ica, Socrates in Carnival, and Senior Boys' Council. MARY MAYOL If you ask us, these members of the Bulletin Staff really stick together. Here's another one who belongs to the Quill and Scroll. HAROLD McCARTY Hail! Our football captain, a varsity basketball player and track man fnot that you didn't already know ill. He finds the Supreme Court an interesting subject. LOWELL McCLELLAND Up from Senior Choir to A Cappella climbed Lowell, singing and acting in Briar Rose and Whither 0' Youth as he went. ln the future he's going up in airplanes. FREEMAN McCOY If you're looking for a good con- versationalist, look no more. Freeman knows all about sports, inventions of airplanes, W'illiam Powell, and the navy. SAM MCCREARY Sam kept himself mighty busy. His list records: Junior Choir, Senior Choir. Wranglers, Briar Rose, 'twappin' Wharf, basketball manager, and De Molays. CECIL MCCUBBIN Since Cecil is interested in radios, he longs to go into radio business and pro- duce bigger and better radios--probably with television. GEORGIA LEE McCULLEY Careful, Ronsard, Georgia's hero is Rudy Vallee. She played four years with Advanced Orchestra, was in G. A. A., Pep Squad, Transcript. served on the Junior Capitoline Staff, and as a freshman representative. CURTIS McKINNIE Curtis was no idler. Look at his list-Orchestra for three years, State Orchestra Contest, Delphics, French Club, the 1936 Carnival fProfessor Hagensockj, and numerous debates. DEAN McNELLY Even though there is no connection whatsoever between music and meat, this member of Junior Choir, A Cap- pella Choir and the cast of Briar Rose, intends to spend his life inspect- ing meat. MARGARET McWILLIAMS As yet Margaret hasn't anyone who can qualify as her ideal. She's going to be a successful business woman with plenty of time to travel. EDNA MELCHER All the information that Edna gave was that she intends to bend her efforts toward becoming a good home econom- ics teacher. We hope she succeeds. JOHN MERANO John decided that silence is golden and refused to tell us anything except that he linds all world attairs of the utmost interest. Class of Ma , 1937 MINNETTE MESTER Again a journalist. Minnette be- longed to Quill and Scroll, Transcripts, the Bulletin Staff and acted as a dele- gate to the Illinois High School Press Conference. PAUL METZGER In Junior Choir, Paul centered all his attention on singing. Next year he will turn it toward making a name for himself in college. DICK MEYER Dick was so busy with outside ac- tivities that Crafts Club was his only high school activity. Electrical con- tracting is his prospective occupation. ROSALIE MEYERHOFF Rosalie dwelt within our portals as a Thalian, French Club member, and C. A. A. girl. Even though sports and music fascinate her, she would rather make her bread and butter as an interior decorator. CARL MIDDEN Any one who steps right into A Cappella Choir without having been in either of the preliminary choirs must be very good, and that's just what Carl did. JOSEPH MIRABELLA It seems that Joseph wants to see whom he's talking to, especially if it should be his ideal, Ginger Rogers. JAMES MONTGOMERY Again we haxe an admirer of Ed- ward Vlll. This one was a Pill Roller and a DeMolay who likes Diesel motors and radios. Filly-jus Class of May, 1937 ELLA CATHERINE MORRIS The girl with eyelashes! Ella was with us only the last two years of her high school career, but she did mighty well for a little girl. ELFREDA MILES Again a prospective oilice worker: this time one who has followed politics extensively, and as a result claims Pres- ident Roosevelt as her hero. VERNON MAULDING To be a printer is Vernon's am- bition. Every time there's a Mae West picture in town he rushes to thc theater with the speed of an antelope. fApologies to Cary Grant.l DONALD MUCCIANTE Swimming, dancing, and industrial arts are the activities which catch Don- ald's attention, and he places Lou Cehrig on a pedestal. To be a machin- istghis ambition. BERNARD MULDOON Is this consistent or isn't it? Bernard praises the deeds of Tarzan, and he desires to become a big game hunter. Hi-Y did that for himfor did it? HELEN MYTAR Besides graduating in three and one- half years, Helen belonged to Advanced, Theatre, and All State Orchestras. Need we tell you music is her ambition? GEORGE NATION When George is a ranger, he can look back on the days he was in Junior, Senior, and A Cappella Choirs, Briar Rose, and Cafeteria Council Qas pres- identl. F ifty-six DOROTHY NEIL Food may be the way to a man's heart, but music does the trick for a girl. Both of Dorothy's heroes are musical fliing Crosby and Nelson Eddyl. BETTY NEU During her four years Betty found time to join the G. A. A., French Club, and Thalians, and to play in both the Advanced and Theatre Orchestras. DOROTHY NEUBICH Let us assure you, Dorothy, that to pass history is a pleasure closest to many hearts. The Rainbow Girls claimed Dorothy's membership. AMY NEUMAN Amy never missed a dramatic radio program, 'cause she wished to he a radio dramatist. Philos ftreasurerj , Quill and Scroll, and Junior Etude com- plete her list. VIRGINIA NEWBERRY Although Virginia didn't join any of our high school societies, she did belong to a group at the Y. W. C. A. Bet Dick Powell receives plenty of fan mail from her. JAMES NEWELL Perhaps we're wrong, but if all these seniors who desire to be engineers reach their goal, the field will he over- crowded. Football in 1935 was James' chief activity. EDEN NICHOLAS Junior, Senior, and A Cappella Choirs, Junior Etude, Senior Boys' Council, Whither O' Youth, Briar Rose, and Carnival Capers filled Eden's four years. He also had one of the leads in He Who Gets Slappedf' REITA OESER There must be something noble about this Thalian Literary Society, since so many of its members are desirous of giving their lives to the care of the sick. MARY JANE OTTEN Didn't we once hear that Mary .lane was President of G. A. A.? We also wonder why she failed to tell us that she was on Senior Girls' Council. She believes she has more sport arrows than anyone 1-lse in S. H. S. PEGGY LOU OWEN Peg didn't give us any informa- tion, but we've seen her around school plenty. She's the young lady who never lacks pep. DAVE PALASH Of course we could write a host of words about Dave, but we won't say a thing, 'cause he refused to give us the least bit of information. ARTHUR PARIS Here is a future orchestra leader. He played in Advanced Band, belonged to the Delphics, played freshman football, and was a trackman. DORINE PARVIN Will our school ever be without music? Neverg at least not so long as we have students like Dorine who played in Advanced and Theatre Or- chestras. FRANCES PAUL This member of Lotus Club and G. A. A. is a quiet, retiring little trick, but don't let that fool youg she pos- sesses a master mind behind all that reserve. Class of May, 193 LOIS PHILBROOK Some day Lois will decide what and when we should eat. Senior Choir, A Cappella Choir, Girl Reserves, G. A. A., Junior Etude, and Whither 0' Youth were her S. H. S. activities. ALMA PHILLIPS In the future when you want your troubles soothed away by a sweet vio- lin, just look up Alma, whose name appeared on the membership list oi the Girl Reserves Club. PATRICIA PHILLIPS Jolly Patty confined her energy to Les Bas Bleus, French Club, and added her weighty words to the intersociety debates. ROBERT PIERCE Bob is interested in progress of everything and everyone. He seems to have done well for himself, since he played in the Advanced Band for three years. ANNE POCHEVICH Page Bing Crosby, who wins praises from Anne. She's a mighty ambitious girl whose one aim is to go to work. TOM POSEY Serving as Secretary of the Crafts Club and wearing one of those dreadful purple Senior Boys' Council shirts were the two high points in Tom's high school career. TOM POTTS All phases of foreign wars interest this former Band member, Delphic, De Molay, and Pill Roller. He adds his name to the list of David Windsor's admirers. F ifty-seven Class of May, 193 ROGER POGUE W'ell, this is the second boy we've found who claims to have been So- crates in the Carnival. May be that sci- ence, which so faseinates him, had something lo do with it. JUNE PRICE W'hat this world needs is more peo- ple to make it beautiful. June's going to attempt that as a beauty operator. She was a C. A. A. girl. BILL QUINLAN When Bill has completed his bit in Delphies, Crafts Club, and Senior Boys' Council, lle's going to devote his time to become a millionaire and listening t0 Jack Benny. DOROTHY RACHFORD Not bad for only four years, Dorothy. ,Iunor Choir, Senior Choir, Briar Rose, on Advertising Staff of the Bul- letin, and a salesman oi the Bulletin ads. LEWIS RADMACHER Whenv Lewis is a dentist, he'd better not tell patients that Tarzan is his hero. It might scare them away. Anyhow, they'll enjoy talking sports with him. PAULINE RALEIGH Besides being a Les Bas Bleus and member of Le Cercle Francais, Pauline possessed a head of naturally curly hair that made all of us Mpermanentcd gals envious. BETTY JEAN RANEY With an outlook like yours, Betty, you never need fear becoming narrow- minded. Was it assisting Mr. Benedict or belonging to Philos that gave you such a good point of view? F ifty-eight DORIS REID Speaking frankly, Doris's main idea at the present is to have a good time. She belonged to Junior Choir, A Cap- pella Choir, Lotus Club, and the east of Briar Rose. MARY FRANCES REID View the contents of a full program: French Club, C Club, G. A. A., Quill and Scroll, Junior Capitoline Stall, News Editor of Bulletin, class representative, Bulletin and Capitoline representative. JOHN RENZ If John accomplishes his aim, he'll be the future president of the United States. Right now, he is interested in the outcome of the coming Braddock and Sclimeling match. CLARENCE RICHARDSON After leaving high school and our Cafeteria Council, Clarence is going to settle down and become a college pro- fessor. l-Ie played football, baseball, and track. MARY RICHARDSON When Mary becomes a stenographer, she'll lake notes for her own informa- tion about present day politics and im- portant current events. NELL RICHARDSON Since Nell admires just anyone who is suecessful, we hope she'll be able to join their ranks. Just what is your definition of success, Nell? BOBBE RIEFLER Bobbe's the girl with the large choco- late drop eyes. Her singing was a joy to hear whether at a dance, a private club meeting, or in A Cappella Choir. DORABEL RITTER Soliciting ads for the Bulletin took up both Dorabel's time and energy. She's another girl who was in Whither O' Youth. MARGARET RITTER Oh, well, what's the use-maybe it was Whither. Margaret belonged to the Girls' Athletic Association in the year 1935. LEONARD ROBERTS A Cappella Choir, Delphics, Bulletin Staff, Briar Rose, football, baseball, President of Sophomore Class, and Bul- letin Representative come under Leon- ard's list of activities. IRENE ROBINSON Can you think of any situation more fitting than being a teacher of history and being interested in all sorts nf political situations? BOB ROESE Bob made places for himself in Cafe- teria Council and in F. F. A. fstanding, we presume, for the Future Farmers of Amerieai. HELEN ROHRER Behold! An opera star of the future. Helen received her musical training in the Glee Club at Waverly High School. Too had she wasn't in some of our choirs. RONSARD ROLAND Besides winning the District Golf Meet, Rousard belonged to Prep Orches- tra, Advanced Orchestra, Theatre Or- chestra, Delphics, and the Pep Squad. Class of Ma , 1937 MARGARET ROSS Some foreign ambassadors should be notified of the fact that so many of our seniors are interested in conditions in Europe. They say one does better work if his heart is in it. RUSSELL RUBLEY Here's an athlete thru and thru. Russell was a freshman track man, played softball, swam, played on the Pup Basketball team, plus xarsity foot- ball. EILEEN SALLEE Besides attending all the dances, Sally helonged to Junior, Senior, and A Cappella Choirs, Les Bas Bleus, .lun- ior Capitnlinc Staff, C. A. A., and the Wliithcr 0' Youth and Briar Rose casts. MYRTLE SAMONDS As Cornelius I and II in Briar Rose, Myrtle made use of the musical training which she received in Junior, Senior, and A Cappella Choirs. ELLEN SANER Riverton, Illinois, is more than just a dot on a mapg it is also the home of Ellen, who attended S. H. S. to nom- plete her education. GRANT SANDERS It took all of Grant's non-studying time to play in our Advanced Band, and to exercise at the Y. M. C. A. Hero? 0. Curwood. WILLIAM SCAIFE To work under the United States Civil Service is William's high goal. While in our midst he lent his voice to the ranks of Senior Choir. F ifly-nine Class of lay, 19 BOB SCHINNEER One of our most prominent seniors- Bob. For two years Treasurer and President of Delphics, a member of Senior Boys' Council, Assistant Treas- urer of Junior Class, and Pep Squad. EDWARD SCHLESINGER Dancing is Eddie's chief amusement. Steinmetz? fpardon our ignorance. but who is she, he, or it?j wins all of this senior's praise. ' ANITA SCHNEPP A short brunette and Robert Tay- lor are Anila's ideals. She sang in .lunior Choir and added her support to the .lunior Etude. NORMAN SCHNEPP Again we have one of those numer- ous admirers of the ex-King Edward VIII. He'll find a joyous welcome if he ever comes to the United States. EILEEN SCHULER We've seen Eileen around school dili- gently typing and heard her just as dil- igently warhling in A Cappella Choirg we've come to the conclusion that she finds her time well-filled. HALL SHARPE Consistency seems to be the chief virtue of nur seniors. Hall wishes to follow the head of his hero, Bob Elson, and become a radio reporter. EUGENE SHEA Baseball, football, and Olympic sports are the most interesting things in the world to Gene. He joined our Pep Squad to help encourage our athletic teams. Sixty 3 BOB SHONTZ All of Bob's activities took place at Muscatine High School, where he played football, basketball, hockey, and was a member of the Letter Club and Hi-Y. ALBERT SIEBERT There is not a thing in the world that is able to draw and hold Alhert's attention like sports. That covers a mighty vast field for observation. CHESTER SIKKING In Chet the school found a trackman, a football player, a basketball player, and a swimmer: also a Wrangler and one of the boys on the Senior Boys' Council. DORIS SIX As Vice President of Thalians and a member of Le Cercle Francais, Doris completed her high school years. She is closely following the advancement in the field of medicine. MAE SMITH Music is my only interest, states Mae. No wonder she played in our Ad- vanced Orchestra and is going to be a pnblic school music teacher. PAUL SMITH Serving and singing on the Cafeteria Council and in Junior Choir respec- tively were Paul's achievements. His highest aim is to work on a railroad. BETTY ANN SOUTHWICK Careful, J. W.l You're Betty's hero. Philos fPresidentj, Senior Girls' Coun- cil, C. A. A., Capitoline representa- tive, Vice President of Freshman Class, Make-Up Editor of the Capitoline---an all-around girl--that's Betty. HELEN STANIS W'e had a hard time getting Helen to talk, but finally she told ns she likes swimming, hiking, roller skating, and dancing. EDITH STARKEVICH Come forward, boy frienrl- hcre's a loyal Transcript who idolizcs you as her hero, and who pills having a good time ahead of everything else. LOUIS STEINRITZ To get a good steady position is an aim which many have in iufnd. Let's hope Louis' joh leaves him plenty of time to enjoy diving and swimming. JOHN STELLE Now Johnny was with us and new he wasn't, but he did find time to play lroth freshman and varsity football and pw out for track in the same two years. PAGE STEPHENS Ready-go! Vice President and See- retary of Delphics, President of Senior Boys' Council, Hi-Y, Bulletin Staff, freshman foothall, varsity basketball. and treasurer of the Senior Class of '3T. ALICE STOCKDALE Another of the film stars gains praise. This time it's Leslie Howard. Alice was a French Cluh memher and one of those well known Thalians. WILMA STOPPLEWERTH All we need do is quote Wiliiia: I enjoy creative writing, find it most en- joyable, easiest thing to do --she hopes to be famous in the literary field myself. Class of May, 193 JOSEPHINE STRONG Now we wonder why Jo wants to operate one of the Guest restaurants in America? She chattered in French Cluh, huilt herself up in C. A. A., and lie- rame an avtixe Les Has. JUNE STROUB Swing lroth musirally and physically! i. e., Prep and Adxanred Orchestras, C Club. and C. A. A ELYNOR SUCKOW As an admirer of Mrs. F, D. Roose- velt, Elynor attempted to keep as husy as she. Senior Choir, Philos, Frencli Club, Junior Capitoline Staff, Prince of Peace Contest. Debate. TOM SUDDUTH Just as there seems to he :t surplus of S. H. S. girls who are going to take up nursing, there are also any numher of S. H. S. hoys who intend to take np radio engineering. BILL SUDDUTH After completing his hisll st-luoul course, Bill will start training to lie- eome an athletic eoavh, and hopes some day to coach a ehainpion:-l-up team. ROBERT SUMMERS Hoh's main activity. so he informs us, was football. Well, S. H. always takes a footlrall player lo her heart. MARGARET SUMMERVILLE Even if Margaret hadn't told us, we would know she was interested in sports 'cause she belonged to the G. A. A. What is your favorite sport, Margaret? Sixty-one Class of May, 1937 JACK SUTPHIN Here's another busy person. Jack has been in all three choirs, Briar Rose, Whither 0' Youth, Delphics, and a Bulletin Representative. He thinks Col- onel Lindbergh top-notch. FRANCIS SUTTER At all the dances you could find Red right in the midst of 'em. He had a diliicult job as assistant to tho Faculty Manager of our Camival of '36. BOB SWEET We could stoop to the lowly pun but what's the use? Advanced Orches- tra and Wranglers were Bob's out- standing accomplishments. CHARLOTTE THOMPSON After all her musical training in Junior, Senior, and A Cappella Choirs and the Big 12 at Pekin, Charlotte still holds the position of a private secre- tary as her goal. DOROTHY TIPPS Some well-known writer once said of a character that he was a busy man, who seemed even busier than he was. That's Dorothy. Junior Choir, Les Bas Bleus, Transcripts, French Club, and freshman representative all kept Doro- thy ou the jump. JOHN TOBIN We'll all remember John as the boy who worked so hard on the Bulletin Staff, and even joined Quill and Scroll to improve his writing ability. The study of character lascinates him. JEAN TODD Les Bas Bleus, Quill and Scroll, Cafe- teria Council, Bulletin Representative, C. A. A., Pep Squad, Prom Commit- tee, Senior Girls' Council, and Senior Editor of the Capitolinc-me. Sixty -two MILDRED TODD As a representative both for the Bul- letin and Capitoline, Mildred ranked high. She will attempt to rank just as high as a secretary. JOHN TOLAN Wlhat is the H. H. Club, John? After traveling with a fair circuit in ten states, you should have seen enough livestock to help you to raise good live- stock. PAUL TOLAN After Paul leaves high school and the ranks of the Fixture Farmers of Amer- ica, he's going to study electricity and become an electrical engineer. WILLIAM TOLLE After spending hours in printing the Bulletin, Bill has decided to make his living as a printer. At one time he was under Mr. Benedict's direction in the Junior Choir. CATHERINE TRANOS Most of Catherine's activities took place in Petersburg High where she be- longed to the Glee Club, the Student Council, and the freshman and sopho- more basketball teams. ELEANOR TRIBICUS Eleanor finds relaxation from her work in Philos, G. A. A., and Tran- scripts, by dancing, or swimming. Curly-headed Amelia Earhart is her heroine. LILLIAN TUCKER Another girl to add to our overflow- ing list of prospective stenographers. The Girls' Athletic Association enlisted the staunch support of Lilly. WILLIAM TURLEY Again we find a senior who trained in the Future Farmers of America for future agriculture work. He also played baseball and belonged to the Cafeteria Council. EVELYN URSINI We suppose Evelyn means Riverton, when she says she belonged to the R. H. 5. Commercial Club, and was in their sophomore play. JANE VESPA Jane was one of the campfire girls: at least that's what we've always been led to believe that Swastika girls are. As a freshman she played basketball. ALICE WAGY For a little girl Alice accomplished a lot in Junior, Senior, and A Cappella Choirs, Thalians, and as bookkeeper for the Bulletin advertising. KATHRYN WAHL Kathryn didn't waste any of ber time. She was in Senior Choir, Quill and Scroll, Transcripts, the Carnival Capers, and on the Ad Staff of they Bul- letin. , GEORGE WANGARD Probably you knew George--he's the little boy who sings Marconi's praises to the sky and spends all his spare time studying the progress in radio work. ROBERT WATSON Again we have a prospective en- gineerg this time it's a civil one. If you ever need someone to confide in just seek Bob-we know he can keep a secret. Class of May, 193 CLARK WATSON This Crafts Club member and De Molay is interested in women, espe- cially Ginger Rogers. He's trying to improve his dancing, need we wonder why? KATHRYN WATT Kathryn added her bit to Junior Choir and Lotus Club fas its secretaryl. If you want to know any baseball per- centages, just ask her. RAYMOND WEED Outstanding football was Ray's out- standing activity, but then we needn't tell you that. He learned all about stage craft from active experience. EDWARD WELSH What an accomplishment 4 Edward played in our Advanced Orchestra for four years. No wonder lie longs to have a dance band as well-liked as that of Ray Noble. DOROTHY WELLS Even though Dorothy was born in Minnesota, she lias now become a loyal Illinoisan, and also a loyal student of our high school. ROY WENTZ Who doesn't know Roy, and why shouldn't they? He was in Preparatory Orchestra, Delphics, Senior Boys' Coun- eil, Cafeteria Council, Hi-Y, and Dei- phic Debate team. MARCELLA WETTERER Swimming and tennis are this athlete's all-consuming activities, her hero and heroine, and her future am- bition. So much for that. Sixty-three Class of May, 193 DOROTHY WEXLER Attention! Les Bas Bleus. French Club, Quill and Scroll. Senior Girls' Counril. intersoeiety and varsity fle- lvate. Junior Capitoline Assistant, and l4.4lilor-in-Chief of the Capitoline. LAYMAN WILKINSON Freshman football and track. and xarsity football and track topped Lay- man's list of activities.

Briar Rose, Treasurer and President of Delphics, Senior Boys' Council, Business Manager of the Cap- itoliue StafT, Cafeteria Council. and Vice President of the Senior Class. FAY WOLFORD After Fay finishes her college roursr she's going to jump right into the politi- ral pie and wade up to the presidency. That's aiming mighty high. NICK WOLOSHYN Hen-'s a new ideal of one of our seniorsffiob Kessler of Purdue. Nick made himself well known through his activities as a football player and a basketball player. Sixty-four BETTY JUNE WOODS For ever so long we were convinced that this senior was a ghost or a myth, but at last diligent research taught us that she is a wide-awake girl. ELIZABETH WRIGHT Even though Elizabeth made straight A's, she still found time for French Club, the Pep Squad, and Lotus Club las their hard-working seeretaryi. LUELLA WRIGHT To find my purpose in life and serie it well. is a mighty high aim for any one and we're sure the teach- ing of Toyohiko Kagawa will aid Luella, who sang in Junior and Senior Choirs, and Briar Rose. ROSE YAFFE Here's a new addition to our list of heroes-'Tyrone Power. Rose sang in Junior Choir, played in C Club. and helped on the Bulletin and Capitoline staffs. She is very much interested in sports, especially basketball. BETTY .IO YANDA Something new and different. Betty .lo's hero is not Robert Taylor. This busy senior was a Lotus, in Freshman Dance Club, Junior Advisor, member of the G. A. A., and Senior Girls' Coun- cil, and Consuelo in He Who Gets Slapped. DICK YOCOM One of the better people. Dick was President of Wranglers, on the Cafe- teria Council and Senior Boys' Council. football manager, Secretary of his Soph- omore Class, President of his Junior Class. and President of his Senior Class. HARVEY YOUNG When Harvey sets out to find that uood job for which he is looking, we'll het he turns to the field of aviation and attempts to follow the flight of Lindbergh. HELEN YOUNG Bet you didn't know that Helen was pitch-pipe in the A Cappella Choir. Remember her as the queen in Briar Hose? She was President of the Lotus and on the Pep Squad. LA VERNE YOUNG A versatile lass this admirer of Gabby Hartnett, who desires tn be a great pianist. She will find her relax- ation in dancing and swimming. JEANNE ANDERSON Dancing and playing the piano are .lt-nune's favorite pastimes. Even so she considered the Rainbow Girls and Quill and Scroll worthy of some of her energy and time. HAL HARTMANN We thought that we had seen Hal in the bank, but, bum, maybe we were mistaken. Anyway, we're sure that yon've seen him around S. H. S. for the last four years. LEONA KNAI Class of May, 193 JAMES LONG My Dad is James' hero and just about one of the grandest feelings in the world. Mr. Benedict kept him busy wurbling in Junior Choir. JUNE GORHAM Since June spent her first three years in a high school in Iowa, she naturally was not able to list any S. H. S. ac- tivities aml she declined to name any others. HARRY SIMMONS .lunie's going to he a psychiatrist, Band, Wranglers, Whither 0' Youth, track, football, and swimming were his outstanding activities. JOHN STELLE Now Johnny was with us and now he wasn't, but he did find time to play both freshman and varsity football and go out for track in the same two years. Due to an accident Leona was out of school, and she just barely got her picture in on time. A musical lady-Junior Etude and A Cappella Choir. Sixty-live Class of 1938 OFFICERS President .,,,,.,,,,,,.,........,..,..,...,,.,.. Bos KIBELE Vice President ........ ,... ...,., J 0 HN M.AHER Secretary ,.,..... . ,,.,.. ........,....., J oHN TRUTTER Treasurer ........... .......... M ARY HELMS1'E1'TER Kihele, Trutter, Helmstetter, and Maher Do you hear all that cheering? lt's not for a king and his queen, oh, no, mere royalty could never inspire such thundering acclamation, We reserve those roar- ing shouts of praise for the kings and queens of our hearts-the juniors of S.H.S. Next year they'll be seniors, but they don't have to look ahead to see them- selves as school leaders. During the past year, juniors pushed themselves-in a nice way of course-into every part of school life. Ever since they first entered school as eager fhut not green--oh, perish the thoughtlj freshmen, they've been ugood children . fThey will appreciate that compliment. J They wormed their way not only through musty textbooks, hut also into the hearts of all. Winning praise from teachers, scholars, and just fellow class- mates, they won the right to he known hy the ancient and worthy foh, very Worthyl title of juniors. In many fields-literary, musical, athletic, social, and what-not, they proved themselves worthy of taking charge of school affairs in 1938. In fact, it's rather a question of whether they didn't, in spite of seniors, take charge in 1937. But no senior would admit that.

The first year for these 'icootiesn was spent mostly in getting acquainted with their classmates, school, and teachers. Their outstanding interest was the cantata which they gave in conjunction with the sophomore choral classes. Many hours were given up to practice, but the The daily exodus of freshmen from their home on the hill. Success of the presentation was reward enough. In the line of sports, they participated in both basketball and football. The football team carried off the city championship, the basketball team finished second in the freshman tournament, losing to Cathedral. Their spare moments were Well occupied with social dancing classes, matinee dances, sports and home- work, yet they found time to participate in night life, too. We upperclassmen wish to take this opportunity to welcome you freshmen into our ranks, and to wish you success in your remaining three years, so that they will he packed full of pleasant memories.

Their aims are many and worthy: to promote industrial education and in- dustrial leadership in S.H.S.g to provide for a hohbyg to increase knowledge of industrial organizations, the interdependence of workers, trade ethics, and safety, to promote thrift generally through the intelligent use of the products of industry and through the wise use of educational and training facilities, to aid the student in the transition from school to work, and to promote a fellow- ship among the youth interested in industrial education--commendable goals for any group.

Results of individuality were their purple shirts-chosen because the boys knew no others would wear similar ones-wise boys! Turning to their accomplishments, one iinds several projects even more worthily individual. Unpublicized was the 'Lhig brother act they staged. Picking out hoys who were failing, each Counciler became personally ac- quainted with a certain number of them. Then he would try to interest his proteges in succeeding in school. In addition to this, the boys introduced the Pep Squad to athletic events. You who were a part of the squad took it for granted, but outsiders were decidedly impressed with the sportsmanship displayed. Ushering at various events, partying for freshmen, selling candy at games, counting votes for Carnival Queen, presenting a pep assembly, and advancing the cause of courtesy by av campaign, were a few of their other deeds-some in conjunction with Senior Girls' Council, their sister organization.

Swing tunes, an entertaining floor show, and tasty refreshments provided a delightful evening for all who attended. But the Philos have carried the theme of their dance beyond the dance floor on December fourth. Their goal is not only to 'sswingv into the spirit of social events but also to 'sswingw equally as high into all literary activity. Under the able leadership of President Betty Ann Southwick, they have engaged in all school activities. The literary interests of the Philos have been wide and varied. Amy Neuman defeated the candidates in all other societies by winning the Prince of Peace contest. One of the most interesting programs was presented by Miss McKinney, who reviewed Margaret Mitehellis popular modern novel, Gone With the Wind. At Christmas time the Philos held their annual Mothers, Tea. Beautiful Christmas Carols, an entertaining play, and holiday trimmings made this a niemorahle occasion for everyone. Top Ro1r:- A.

Some outstanding speakers: Boh Bishop faide to Governor Horner! on Wllhe Newspapers Aid to Justice, Bill Nelms fFormer Wlrangler, well known in music annalsl on HThe Theatre since 19l0,i' Charles Dungan fhonorary Vlfranglerl on uCharacter and Society Build- ing, and Charles Briggle, on Illinois College. 1 With civic welfare in mind, the society made a generous addition for the Red Cross flood relief fund and contributed to the S.H.S. courtesy awards. As ever, highly successful athletic teams were sent into competition. In addition to all this, last selnester marked the founding of the Wlrangler Alumni Association. Top Rows- H. Simmons, C.

LESLIE NIMMO The Delphie Literary Society has completed another very successful year of activities under the leadership of Presidents Bob Schinneer and John Wolave1'. In debate the society was prominent. Its crack football squad had victori- ous games, as had the basketball team which built up an enviable record of achievements. Excellent Delphic programs of this year included the talents of: Dr. H. B. Henkel, Mr. Robert Drysdale, various alumni, and the pick of the Springfield High School's musical talent. Socially the club devoted their time to making the year as enjoyable as pos- sible. The annual stag banquets were held at the end. of each semester. The regular Wllurkey Strutl' dance was held i11 November with its usual success. Also a free invitational dance was given in April. Novel decorations greeted the merry-makers on all occasions. A new theme was adopted this year in pledge work and the initiates had lar e red dov collars adorninff their necks' these new lnenlbers are expected g e- r- 9 to carry on ably the Delphic traditions.

This in itself is a symbol of a successful year, but for the Lotus it was just one of their varied interests. Their outstanding social function of the year was undoubtedly the '6Robin Reel, a matinee dance which gave relaxation to many overworked students. Also in the social line was the talk of Mrs. Carl Thoma, in which she shared with them her beauty hints for traveling. . Speaking of traveling, the Lotus are well informed on the Phillipines after hearing Mrs. Olga ,lamesg Miss Irene Simpson's discussion of her recent experi- cnces in Alaska proved very interesting too.

Answer: It used to be that these two stages of high school development were merely preparation for the much more important stages of junior and senior. But now fwith apologies to whom it may concernl them days is gone forever. No longer do these worthy classes twiddle their thumbs, waiting until they have grown old enough to take part in already-established school groups. They have organized a group of their own. To give themselves an opportunity to be in plays, to direct plays, and to aid in stage preparations, those interested in dramatics have formed the organization which you see below. Outstanding this year were the preliminary try-outs for Big 12, which they held with Mr. Henry House as judge. Joyce Chenoweth placed first and Sina .lean McConnell as alternate. For the lighter side of life, they had a May Picnic. Perhaps that last sentence is misleading. All sides of life must be lighter to such an enterpris- ing club. Top Row:fR. Merrifield, S.

BERTHA BAKER JoNEs For a number of years the Cafeteria Council has been an outstanding organi- zation, deserving eommendation for the fine way it has helped worthy students. This Council, under the leadership of its advisor, Mrs. Jones, is composed of seventy-five boys and girls. lVlembers come from all types of homes. Many who are willing to work and to cooperate find this a way to budget their' lunch proble111s. The aim of the Council is to give the student who acquires membership a chance to use his ability in ways other than in the study of textbooks. In the cafeteria thmivdio arewrage students, nottlrenhonorrothones, ofterrprove themselves the best workers. Here they find that they need not only intellect but also the initiative to push ahead and the ,integrity to hold fast to one aim. All members of the Council are started on the same level. From each group arise certain individuals who arc promoted in the accomplishment of their work as recognition of their services. Pf0l1lpil1CSS at all times, and courtesy above all are stressed.

The Christmas breakfast and the May one are the highlights of the year and each term are growing in popularity and attendance. A get-together was held this fall in the form of a Weiner supper. At the business meetings, which are held bi-monthly, it is possible for every member to participate. Criticisms and suggestions are freely offered. During the year our Civic Clubs, as well as the Parent-Teachers, Associa- tion with a group of five hundred, had the opportunity to see the Cafeteria Council at work. The splendid way in which they served the guests with poise and assurance proved that their training was not in vain. To many the word ucafeteriaw is fraught with pleasant memories, the recol- lections of happy and profitable times-where never-to-be-forgotten friend- ships were established with fellow high school students.

Once there, they would read and criticize each other's writings. They had other meetings, too. Every other Monday afternoon after school they would gather in Room 212 to hear speakers, the pick of Springfield,s creative writing talent. Although limited to two evenings, their night life added spice to the year. One evening at the home of Miss Graham, another at that of John Trutter, they met and made merry-as writers do. The group was recognized by the national organization but it included more than merely those who qualified for national membership. Y It included all with skill or inclination to do original writing of every sort. It brought together people who, in putting pens tor paper, got more than blots. Top Row:-- C. Fisher, A. Neuman, E.

Areport on the Simone Simon picture, uPrenez Garde a La Peinturew shows a neat profit. Loud appreciation greets the verbal drawing of the curtain on an excellently presented quaint French play, Le Medecere Mystilief' Enthusiastic folk dancing and singing work up appetites for one of Mrs. Jones' refreshing specialities. Everyone appears mentally and physically satisfied and the program for that day is completed, so the president adjourns the meeting Cof course you haven't forgotten that all this is conducted in French, more or lessl. For other days the program chairman scheduled a lecture, a puppet show, a picnic, a Xmas party, a musicale, and lots and lots of other things. It's really a pleasure to learn anything where you don't realize you,re being taught, n'est-ce pas? And the French Club does that, for one thing. Top Row:fA, Stockdale, E. Kalb, L. Durheim, A.

Miss KATHERINE MATHER To those who knew it the G.A.A. signified fun for girls in all sorts of sports during the past year. For these are the girls who found enjoyment in prac- tically every athletic field you could mention. Doubtless they left unexplored the fields you couldn't mention only because they didn't think of them. Besides enjoying themselves, they contributed to the joy of life for out- siders by sponsoring an exciting uCome Double tournament and an uproarious April Fools, Carnival which lasted a week, commemorating the spirit of the day which is everyoneis-April Fool's Day. If you met these girls you would Gnd them some of the friendliest in the school-easy to get along with and helpful in every way possible. You would leave them feeling that they were truly your friends-and no further word of commendation is necessary. Then here's a toast to them-the girls of the G.A.A.-and to what they stand for-companionship, cooperation, athletic ability, sportsmanship, and fmost of alll good times together!

Following the advice Miss Hayes gave in her address on the Clothes Budget for Wo1'king Girlsf, they will diffuse Class with a capital C3 and taking advantage of Miss Niargaret WhitCOIllb,S style show and lecture on cosmetics, they will completely elface the picture of the prissified old maid type and replace it with one of the zestful energetic type. But they'rc not just sitting around waiting for the futureg they're accom- plishing things in the present too, with spreading joy on Thanksgiving Day and delighting their mothers' hearts with a lovely tea at the University Club. They really are a determined group. Listen to their aims: The advance- ment, the protection, and the beneit of its members. That sounds better than a life insurance policy, and, to top it all, they magnanimously say, L'We owe the World our best. Top Rowffli. Ywuhl, H. Ransdall, M. Mesh-r, E. 'I'rilxh'us, E. Morrr, D.

One Hundred One 93 ational Honor Society Salutations to those who have achieved a place on the National Honor Society, thus proving that four years of study have not been wasted! Well may they be proud of the gold pins they wear, for these emblems stand for four successful years of hard work. Only dignity and respect are appropriate when discussing the National Honor Society. This organization with which our school is affiliated aims high as one may gather from its objectives-to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to encourage the development of character. The scholastic requirements call for an average of B or 4-.00 for the entire period in high school and an average of 4.66 in at least one major subject. Honest labor has its just reward in the recognition assemblies, one in .lan- uary, the other in May, when the honored students receive their merit certifi- cates. As aspiring freshmen, these seemed distant shining luminaries, but to them as successful seniors they signify a measure of attainment. Congratulations to you new members. May all honors be repeated four years hence when' our hopes mayfberrealizedrtlrat-Phi Beta-Kappa will-welcome many of you to its ranks. Back Row D Xocom E Sembell, B. Cavanagh, D. Fultz, M. .l.

The members of Junior Choir are some of Springfield High School's younger warblers. Just listen to them for a sample of the tunes they carry. May melody fill their futures. This year witnessed a change in the system of the Choral Department. The freshmen and sophomores were divided into MA and MBU chorus classes, according to their ability and application. The MA classes were made up of students who would formerly have been in Junior Choir, and so the second semester this organization was forced to disband. The purpose of this organization has always been to prepare students for A Cappella Choir. It Hweeded outn students who possessed no special musical talents or ambitions and spent its efforts in giving the others a basic and fundamental musical education. The value of this group will be fully realized when the time comes for A Cappella to select new members. There will be no group from which to select already well-trained singers, and it will be necessary for it to take in members who have had no musical experience beforehand and who will have to be taught from the beginning. Seeing this danger, the Choral Department hopes to organize next fall a Junior Choir open to underclassmen. First Row:-J. Johnson, B. Henry, M. Kilsch, M. Deppe, V. Kornack, E. Patterson, L. .l.

In order to attain this goal, a definite program of American music was carried out throughout the semester, beginning with the Negro Folk music and continuing down to the modern age of music. Many accomplished guest artists were featured on various .lunior Etude programs. These included Mrs. G. A. Canham, our own Mr. George Patrick, Miss Eunice Marie Jones, Mr. Edwin Sash, and Mrs. Harry Thoma. There is much young talent being cultivated in this group. llflany bind- ing friendships are being developed and strengthened by the mutual love of music. lt is not unreasonable to hope that perhaps in the near future some of the members of ,lunior Etude will rate high in the World of music.

Please open them again, choristers, and let us, your appreciative audience, hear you. Color and dash all in one flash characterized the inspired show that Senior Choir put on the second night of the carnival. Black faced, wide mouthed comedians with good old stand-by minstrel jokes, spirited warbling, witty skits Cdidn't you roar at the gawky hill-billy and his maw?j marked it as the most memorable event of the capers for some folks. Spirits soared to a new peak, and the audience expressed its opinion in calling for repeated bows, rivaling the number that Broadway musical comedies get on first nights. Though the choir seemed especially capable of producing another famous dramusique or operetta, it was disbanded before it had an opportunity to dis- play its genius. lts place was ceded to a new course, music history and appre- ciation.

That's not changing the subject, for A Cappella is beautiful music. With Mr. Lundgren to lead them, its members prove that vocal chords can vie with harp strings. The sight of one of those red and black A Cappella robes immediately reminds the sight-seer fby association of ideasj of Minneapolis, Minnesota. It might easily have brought forth other memories. Members of the choir could Npoint with pridei' to other achievements and Mview with alarm seem- ingly endless hours of practice-but they certainly aren't and don't pretend to be politicians.

One Hundred Seven 93 Orchestra Whenever Mr. Sauer lifted his baton during the past year, it was the signal for entrancing melody. Violins, violas, cellos, basses, flutes, oboe, clarinets, bassoons, French horns, cornets, trombones, tuba, and all the other instruments which are used in an orchestra united with results that left music lovers breath- less with admiration. Yes, they gave concerts and played at various events during the year. Some of them entered contests and won acclaim. But the thing that stands out about the members of advanced orchestra is not how well they each played on cer- tain occasions but how well they played together on every occasion. You have heard them often, you of Springfield High School. You know that they need no word of commcndation. To you they are what they are, and you take it for granted that they should be good. QTheir director is Mr. Clarence Sauer.j But to others, who do not realize what heights a high school group can reach, they are a truly remarkable orchestra. MEMBERS OF THE ADVANCED ORCHESTRA C.

With some two hundred schools competing, Springfield's band was ree- ommended to represent Illinois in the 1938 National Band Contest in Class A, highest classification. The fact that the hand rated as one of the three highest in state competition this year was due in no small measure to adequate rehearsal space. We must not forget Mr. George Patrick, who for fourteen years has been their guide, their leader, and their director. Protecting his boys from any denial of what he considers their rights, he is practically their guardian angel. Besides the regular band pictured below, there are the reserves who do their full share to make it successful. Hail to all of' you unsung heroes con- nected with the band!

The boys who took over and handled this Vital job for the season were: Dick Yocom, Hank Franz, Richard Boushey, John Fields, John Picco, and Bob Dulaney. The staff was headed by Dick Yocom, senior man- ager, therefore his picture appears here. But without the aid and assistance of the rest of the staff, Dick would really have had his hands full. The student body as fans probably never thought much about or fully appreciated what these boys did, but they had an im- mense task before them at every game and also at the afternoon practices. It was their duty to be general handy men assist- ing Coaches Boellig and Teuscher and the players in any Way possible. DICK Yoc0M When the final scoie of the Thanksgiving day game with Decatur was posted, it signalized the ending of the eighth success- ful football season for the Red and Black gridsters under the regime of Coaches Bill Roellig and John Teuscher. Since these two gentlemen assumed their positions in 1929, they have put Springfield on the map, footballically speaking. A total of thirty-eight consecutive Big Twelve victories com- piled the past seasons was snapped this year, but Roellig put the team on the right track again with the Decatur victory. Stressing the fundamentals to lineman is Mr. Teuscher's job. He emphasizes tackling, blocking and charging, while Boellig takes charge of the backiield. When these two sections are com- bined, the results are an instantaneous success. Beginning fall practice in plenty of time before the first game, the boys out for the varsity have time enough to get into condi- tion. They are given a thorough training of the fundamentals until they sink in, and an abundance of limbering-up exercises. By the time of the first game the team is primed and ready for action. Co-operation, sportsmanship, and fair play are other important factors that contribute to the success of Roellig's teams. Um: Hundred Thirteen Football Lettermen I L R L we If I ,f- eww. I.

Probably the most important post of the excellent Springfield High School Coaching Staff is the Business Managerial posi- tion. Mr. Jesse L. Sanders has capably and efficiently handled this job for many years. This year mainly through his efforts new equipment-which undoubtedly went a long way in spurring the boys on to express appreciation by playing with all they had in them -Q was purchased. A ticket selling plan was i11- troduced this year., which Mr. Sanders hoped would give every student the chance to attend the games. Over one thousand tickets were sold, and each stu- dent selling one received a ticket for half price. Freshman Football Team Under the guidance of Coach Charley Petcfish, the Central Freshmen romped away with the City Freshman Football Title this year, trouncfng the Converse and Feitshans Yearlings each twice during the season. Coach Petefish has had charge of the Freshmen football squad since 1932, and his aggregations have been equally suc- cessful in taking the City Frosh Title as the varsity have in copping the Big Twelve Championship. lncidentally, much of the success of the varsity in the past few years can be traced back to the training the players received from Coach Petefish when they were freshmen. This fact, which is very true at S. H. S., further cements the fact that a good freshmen coach is a big part of the future victories on the gridiron. Taking charge of the boys when they enter school, green and inexperienced, Mr. Petefish sees that the rudiments and fundamentals of football are stamped indelibly for further train- ing under Roellig and Teuscher in the varsity. Many boys tutored by Petefish, starring their freshmen year, have dupli- cated this on the varsity and have gone on receiving recognition for their feats. Serving notice that his freshman charges of last season are going places in the future, Petefish steered them to the title. The Central Frosh trimmed the Feitshans freshmen 19 to 0 and 20 to 6, and Converse 6 to 0 and 20 to 6 to win the championship for the fourth year out of five. H W A few of the first year squad destined to go places in the future are: Dick Thrasher, Warren Murray, Bob Jesberg, Loren Cantrall, Bob Duffy, .lack Gott, .lim Francis, Raymond Gwin, Fairless Jordan, ,lim Farley, Bob 0,Kcefe, and Bob Wyatt.

S. 7 CATHEDRAL 0 The 1936 edition of the Springfield High School football squad successfully opened their 1936 season by defeating their city cousins, Cathedral, 7 to 0 in a night game at the local field. Victory was secured in the last four minutes of play when the Red and Black steamed down the field in a drive that was not to be denied and finally pushed Fultz over the linc for six points. Fultz brought his educated toe into action for another point and the scoreboard read 7 to 0. The Senators, who have yet to taste defeat at the hands of a Cathedral eleven, found a spirited resistance, not launch- ing a successful drive until late in the last period. This victory enabled S. H. S. to gain the top rung in the intra-city race. S. H. S. 39 CARLINVILLE 7 Making up for being touchdown starved in the Cathedral game, the Red and Black proceeded to have a field night in their second tilt, when they went on a scoring rampage trounc- ing Coach Rufus Marshallis boys by a lopsided score of 39 to 7. Seeing to it that no slip-ups would occur that would blot their record, which had not been threatened or blemished since a rainy day in 1933 when the Carlinville team slipped and sloshed to a 7 to 0 victory, Springfield totaled 13 points in the first quarter to put the game practically on ice. McCarty romped over for three scores with Fultz contri- buting two. Engel caught a pass for another touchdown and Lee supplied the one touchdown for Carlinville. One Ilumlrml Seventeen THE 1936-1937 SEASON The football season of 1936 was the first season in a good many years that S. H. S. failed to bring home the Big Twelve Conference Championship. However, the Red and Black turned in an enviable record, losing one game out of eight. The one defeat at the hands of Danville, one ofrt-he confer- ence's strongest teams, forced the S. H. S. squad to be con- tent with a tie for second place. Next year it is the belief and hope that S.H.S. will again as- cend the throne as champion. This long tenure Whose be- ginning was signalized with a victory over Decatur in 1929 may start again. It is said his- tory repeats itself and last sea- son's victory over Decatur may send the Capitol City boys careening back to the front and give the Senators another six year lease to the top rung. Although failing to obtain the main objective of the year the Senators did gain some con- solation when they won the dis- tinction of taking the intra-city title championship for the Hfth consecutive season, defeating Cathedral and Feitshans. Lincoln Goes Down on a Punt S. H. S. 20 FEITSHANS O With monotonous regularity the city title again rested on the worthy brow of S. H. S. for the fifth consecutive season, when they hammered the Feitshans Flyers into submission by a score of 20 to 0. Springfield badly outelassed the Waxman, showing plenty of power, both offensively and defensively. The only threat by the Flyers during the game was stopped at the S. H. S. 38 yard line. McCarty went over for the first score on a ten yard run. In the third quarter McCarty again crossed the checked zone on a ten yard off-tackle play. Duane Fultz kicked the extra point. Forced in the coffin corner in the fourth quarter the Senators responded with a 90 yard drive capped by a seven yard plunge by Dedinas for the touchdown with Fultz supply- ing another extra point with his trusty toe. a'Sheets Lawrence and Hogan played good ball for the Flyers. Peoria Takes to the Air One Hundred Eighteen S. H. S. 14 PEORIA CEN. 7 Bringing home the bacon in their first out of town game, which incidentally, was also the first Big Twelve assignment, the Red and Black defeated Peoria Central 14 to 7. But, as fortunate as was S.H.S. in getting off to a fine start, they were also unfortunate enough to lose the services of Duane Fultz, outstanding man in the S.H.S. backfield, when during the pre- liminary warm-up he suffered a fractured jawbone. Handicapped though as he was, Fultz was Very instrumental in the victory, getting away for a 31 yard dash to put the ball in position for a touchdown later. His run was the longest of the game. McCarty added another touch- down to his list on a 17 yard run in the first quarter and Quent Engel broke into the limelight by catching a touch- down pass near the end of the half. S. H. S. 19 BLOOMINGTON 0 The Senators added Bloom- ington to their list of victories for the season, making them number five and also number two in Big Twelve wins. Alvin Hardy received a pass from McCarty in the first period to put S. H. S. in a lead they never relinquished, but it appeared quite shaky at times during the first half, for after the score Springfield seemed to be in a fog. When the third period began, however, they snapped out of it and on a line plunge McCarty added six points to the score and the fans breathed easier thereafter. An intercepted pass and three long runs provided six more points in the fourth period and as the gun banged the scoreboard read 19 to 0 for Springfield. S. H. S. 14 LINCOLN 0 M0h boyi' whew, what a game, what a team, what a man, what a finish, you bet! Games like this are few and far between. The record that Springfield had was glimmering, just about to be snuffed out by a weak and inexperienced team from Lin- coln. The Lincoln boys were playing their hearts out, for even to gain a tie would be a moral victory. With but six minutes to play the Red and Black found them- selves on the uRailsplitters', four yard line with fourth down coming up. As a final gesture the injured Fultz was inserted in the line-up. Circling wide around end Fultz lugged the leather across for six precious points. Lincoln kicked after rc- ceiving the kickoff and Fultz returned the punt, zipping 80 yards for another touchdown. He added both extra points by placement. S. H. S. 0 DANVILLE 13 The old adage uevery good thing comes to an endi' was re- incarnated at the S. H. S. field when the Danville Silver streaks stalked into town. Worst of all they went away with a 13 to O victory in their hip pockets, a feat no Big Twelve team had been able to accomplish since way back when! The whole question can be brought down to two points, the tenacity of the Danville line and a chap named MRusty Owens, which put together formed a combination that placed S. H. S. behind the eight ball for the first time in a number of years. Owens scored all of Danville's points. In the initial period he scored on a brilliant 30 yard run and again in the final quarter on a short plunge. Pree and Mc- Carty were main cogs for S.H.S. Please! You're Too Rough S. H. S. 15 DECATUR 0 The reign of superiority held by the Red and Black ovcr the Big Reds of Decatur lengthened from seven straight vic- tories to eight, when the final gun sounded ending the 1936 Turkey Day Classic. Playing on a snowy, soggy gridiron S. H. S. clearly out- played Decatur, stopping their offense before it could get under way. McCarty starred, scoring a touchdown in the third quarter and reeling off several substantial gains. The Red and Black pushed across their second touchdown in the fourth period when J ack Glisson counted on a short plunge after Duane F ultz had placed the ball in position for the impending score. A long march by S. H. S. stopped by Decatur fin the first quar- terj a foot short of the goal line, set the stage for Alvin Hardy to block Baker's punt for a safety. The Senator's line functioned perfectly, but particularly outstanding was the play of Dernoncourt.

This season found them ex- tremely active, playing curtain raisers for all of the home games and on two occasions journeying out of town with the varsity to Lincoln and Decatur. Though los- ing to the Lincoln anfl Decatur reserves, the Pups won a majority of their games here. From all ap- pearances, there is some promis- ing material stepping from the Pups to the Varsity for next year, endeavoring to fill the shoes of their predecessors. Basketball The Central Freshman Basket- ball team failed to cop the City Frosh Basketball title when they dropped two games of their sched- uled six to the Cathedral yearlings. Cathedral trimmed all of their op- position to win the title. Besides Cathedral and Central. the Frosh City loop consists of Lanphier and Feitshans High School teams. The Central Freshmen easily an- nexed four of their six games, trouncing both Lanphier and Feitshans first year men twice, but they found the Cathedralites too hard to crack, losing l2 to l0 and 9 to 8 games to them.

Peterman, Red and Black mentor, has the distinc- tion of taking a squad to the State Finals more than any other prep coach in Illinois. He always pro- duces strong tourney teams, and originated what is called the Hslow break system. Behind these facts lies the secret of success of Peter- man coached teams. Basketball season hits Coach Charley Petefish doubly hard, for besides tutoring the Pups, Mr. Petefish labors with the Frosh crew. He doles out valuable in- struction and sees that the two groups of boys get their first taste of playing in games, which is an important factor for success on the varsity later on.

H. S. played host to a small, fast Clinton quintet. Playing as good a game as might be expected for the opening tilt, the Red and Black lost 22 to 20. The next night 4'Pete,' took his cagers to Athens, and re- ceived a 37 to 26 lacing. The Collinsville Kahoks gave our school the first scalp of the year when they engaged S. H. S. on the local floor and lost a 20 to 19 decision. Harold McCarty pushed through a field goal with but thirty seconds remaining to insure the victory. During the Christmas holidays S. H. S. players secured their first Big'Twelve win at the expense of the Lincoln Railsplitters, 18 to 12. Continuing their win- ning ways, S. H. S. dumped Cathedral 34 to 23, gaining a lap on the rest of their intra- city rivals. Swamping their South Central rivals, Carlinville, 34 to 19, the Senators made a clean sweep of their holiday schedule. Mc- Carty banged in sixteen counters. Running the count to five straight victories, Springfield turned in an impressive 28 to 17 win over Bloomington High School, copping their second Big Twelve start. But here, Springfieldls winning streak stopped abrupt- ly, for an old jinx left over from the football season fnone other than Danvillel topped the '4Giants of the Conference 27 to 25, blotching the conference record too. Maher led S. H. S. with nine points. Playing their third game in four nights, S. H. S. lost a 23 to 22 verdict to Taylorville. A basket in the final minute provided the winning margin. Resuming play in the City Title race, Feit- shans High School fell before the Senators 22 to 12, accurate long shots telling the story. Page Stephens flipped S. H. S. back in the Big Twelve win column when he made a short shot late in the game in the Decatur Armory, turning back the Reds of Decatur 22 to 21. Getting back with the league leaders again after momentarily slacking in the Dan- ville game, Springfield shot into second place in the Big Twelve race, triumphing over Pe- oria Central 28 to 24. The Red and Black boasted four wins against one loss at this stage of the race. One Hundred Twen ty-three Basketball Turning on the heat and playing possibly their best game of the year, Springfield defeated one of the stand-out teams of this section, Athens. Athens had garnered six- teen straight wins previous to falling before S. H. S. 23 to 21. Winning a close 18 to 16 tilt from the Gem City cagers of Quincy, Springfield marked up another string of five victories. Taking a 28 to 12 decision from Lanphier High School, new entry in the City race, Springfield became the official 1937 City Champion and ran its latest winning streak to six straight. Resuming conference play once more, Springfield ran up against a revived Bloomington outfit and lost 21 to 18. Hopes for a conference championship took another dis- tinct slump when the Senators had the misfortune to hit Decatur on a night when they were hot, losing 38 to 27. These two defeats put the Senators entirely out of recogni- tion for the championship. Ending the home schedule, the outlook raised slightly when Lincoln was beaten 36 to 32. Vala slipped in two shots in the final precious seconds to win the game. S. H. S. lost its chance to end in fourth place in the standing when Peoria Central snared a 32 to 30 decision. Holding a 23 to 10 lead at the half, largely due to Fultz's fourteen points in a big second quarter, the Senators wilted before an equally strong last half Central rally, permitting Central to forge ahead for the victory. The Red and Black's basketball record for the season showed a total of seventeen games won and eight lost. These figures included the results from the district and sec- tional basketball tournaments. Without the tournament results the seasonis record stood at twelve wins and seven defeats. Of the eight defeats suffered by the squad it is es- pecially significant that only Decatur and Athens were able to outscore the locals by more than ten points and in their cases it was eleven. The Athens tilt was early in the season. The other six defeats were all within the range of three points. Altogether for the season there were nine games where winning and losing meant a difference of one or two points. This squad was one of the strongest tournament threats for S. H. S. in years. Though they did not win the state championship, it was only a twist of fate that kept them out of the fight for state honors. one rlumzmz 1'.m.fy.10uf McCreary Querry Duncan MANAGERS Sam fon the spotl McCreary, and the tumbling twits, Arthur Duncan and Howard Querry, were the triumvirate that acted as basketball managers for the 1936-37 campaign. TOURNAMENT A long looping one-handed side shot by Ernie Golladay gave a lightning fast Athens quintet a 23 to 21 overtime vic- tory in the sectional finals. Springfield began their con- quest for a state championship at Jacksonville, site of the re- gional meet. Coming through with flying colors, S. H. S. beat Chandlerville 49 to 22, Winches- ter 39 to 21, and Jacksonville 25 to 15. Acting as host for one of the toughest sectionals in the state, the Senators' first opponent, Pana, fell 34 to 24. With Engel converting two free throws, in the final minute, S. H. S. out- lasted Mt. Pulaski, heavy favor- ite, 22 to 20, gaining the right to meet Athens in the finals. Athens eked out a 23 to 21 victory in the overtime period, a heart-breaker to lose and a honey to win. Spring Sports Up and over for S. H. S. BASEBALL Acting on the instigation of Athletic Director Mark Peter- man, baseball, a sport dormant in Springfield's athletic curri- culum since 1929, was renewed this year. Six inter-school teams constituted the league. They were: the Seniors, the Juniors, the Delphics, the Wranglers, the Fresh- men and Sophomores, and the Future Farmers. The outstand- ing players on these teams were selected to represent S. H. S. against Feitshans and Lanphier. At the time the Capitoline went to press the first round of the schedule had been completed, with the Seniors, Juniors, and Future Farmers all tied for the top, each with two games won. Springfield scores again One Hu ndrell Twenty-Eve TRACK Listing among their track achievements for the season, the Red and Black track squad owned a 63 to 59 win over Pe- oria Central and their second successive title as city track champions. Springfield completely dom- i11ated the field in the city meet, taking every first place except the discus throw. S. H. S. ended with 92 points against Lan- phier's 44M and Feitshanis HZ. Duane Fultz duplicated his feat of the Peoria meet by cap- turing three more firsts. Hewitt won three events also. From early appearances stu- dent support and enthusiasm had reached a new high for the spring sport, and S. H. S. was well on its way toward a success- ful season. Coach Teuscher had a busy schedule mapped out for his proteges, including dual meets with Lincoln and Peoria Man- ual, a Big Twelve meet, the dis- trict and the state meets. The Senators extended their wins to three, defeating Lincoln 63 to 59. They lost their next start 62 to 60 to Taylorville. After their one defeat, S. H. S. copped the district meet at ,lack- sonville, scoring 28 points. l.S.D. was second with 25w. Fultz heaved the discus 126 feet, 5 inches to a new record. Six track- sters, Fultz, Royan, Kelly, Hew- itt, Evans, and Vala, represented Springfield High School in the state meet. They were accompan- ied to the state meet by Coaches Teuscher, Roellig and Peterman. Girls, Athletics Having hearty fun and building healthy bodies The opportunity to engage in a multitude of extra-curri- cular activities is tendered to beginning freshman girls through the efforts of Miss Kathryn Mather, gym instructor. Varied activities including basketball, baseball, soccer, swimming, golf, hiking, tennis, archery, shuffle-board, badmin- ton, and horseback riding hold sway the year round and offer many hours of recreation and amusement for the girls. Tourna- ments of these different activities are always in progress and social dancing classes for both boys and girls are held. Emblems are awarded to those girls who prove themselves adept i11 these sports, keep good attendance, and engage in the activities. Girls winning emblems may advance to G. A. A. One Hurulred Twenty-six .lust how wide are the inter- ests of Miss Mather's girls is shown by the newspaper they started this year. Calling it 6'The Athlete's Foot, they tried all through it to show the original- ity and liveliness which its name suggests. In it they recorded all the fun and laughter which echoed through the rooms of Central Girls' Gym. Speaking of rooms, it might not be amiss to tell something of these rooms way up near the sky-on the third floor of Cen- tral. The girls in thef middle of this year got a new dressing room. Although not equipped with all modern conveniences fit used to be the tower rooml, this has great advantages over the former one, inasmuch as it will be more private. In addition to the big gym l which they used whenever the boys didnlt want itl there are three other rooms besides Miss Mather's office.- Ah fsigh of ecstasyll Miss Mather's office! Filled with pic- tures and relics of every class which has passed through it, it is a veritable playhouse of de- light. Words failing to convince you, visit it some day. There fand in the rest of the gylnl you will find, girls with sparkle in their eyes and spright- liness in their steps denoting health. You will praise the wis- dom of teaching girls to play and to enjoy healthful sports. One of the high spots of the year sponsored by the Girls, Athletic Association was the 6'Come Double tournament during the week of March 1. The tournament was held for junior and senior boys and girls. uCome Double meant a team of two boys, two girls, or a boy and a girl. The games of the tournament were: table tennis, deck tennis, shuffle board, and badminton. Boxes of candy were given the double winners of each sport. At right is the rhythm class. Standing: L. .l. Mills, P. Sperry, A. M. Harmon, H. Franke, V. Spainhower, M. Smith. Sitting: S. J. McConnell, M. Myers, M. L. Ruppel, W. Gotts- ehalk, M. J. Kimple, R. Knop- ping, J. Maddox. Open to second, third, and fourth year girls, the Rhythm Class of twenty-four members instructed by Miss Lomelino is possibly the most poised group of girls in S. H. S. They are taught how to re- spond with their bodies to the phrasing and rhythm of music and are given the opportunity to do a small amount of creative work. Ten of the girls competed at Peoria in the Big Twelve meet where they presented sketches of their own interpretation. Girls' Athletics Busy is hardly the word for the G. A. A. Their list of activities, tournaments, games, and carnivals keep themat top speed clear through the year. On May 7, the May Day banquet brought their activities for the year to a close. Some of the more important events for the year were: Play Days with other high schools of the city, the April Fool Carnival, Goal Shooting Telegraphic Tourney, and the inter- society volley ball and basketball tournaments. G. A. A. went through a transition stage this year since Mr. Royal, city supervisor, decided to have the three high schools form a city organization. This left very few active members who had been working for state awards.

'Under Program Chair- 111311 Bob Kibele, they held meetings every other Wednes- day night and listened to various speakers, including Mr. Romaine Procter, hir. Robert D. Furry, and various mem- bers of the 1937 staff. At Christmas they made merry at a party with this year's staff. To end the year they Visited the Willialllsoll Printing Company. lt has been their constant aim during the entire year to prepare thelnselves to be the Capitoline Staff ol' 1938. Listening to all who had messages to deliver, they learned to produce next year a book to be treasured. How well they learned and to what effect they listened will be shown then.

Vlfhenever there was work that was uninterest- ing or that required drud- gery to be done, the ery of the staff member was 'GCall in a Junior Assistant? And, when called in, these Junior Assistants proved themselves worth the trouble of calling them. Every member of the staff has had the expe- rience of being helped by them, every member re- alizes that he eouldn't do without them, but no member fby tradition un- appreeiativel would take the trouble to say Wllhallli Junior Capitoline Staff you! - 4 y . , .

'- weft, N One Hundred Thirty-two Bulletin Staff A On the right you sec a significant picture, for it is the first gathering in the history of the Bulletin of everyone connected with it at one time. ln fact, the banquet given for the staff was so all-inclusive that all those who had any part in putting out the paperfexcept, possibly, the sub- scribers-were there. No doubt they were left out because of lack of space rather than lack of welcome. With suitable decorations, menus printed in French, Miss Frances Krimmel, publicity director for Governor Horner, as guest speaker, and quips flowing as freely as milk, the banquet was a gala affair, long anticipated before- hand and oft remembered afterward. Though this was their first formal fmore or lessl gathering, theylrc rather congenial people-the Bulletin Staff. They have to get along together, they see a lot of each other, since they must necessarily cooperate in their work. Each of them plays his part in publishing it, each is proud of his part, and, most of all, each is proud of the Bulletin. Smn1li'u,1z: fl. Holliday, W. Kramer. Bm-lr Ron-:fG. Stone, E. Prrle. I..

The mission of the Bul- letin, both first and second semesters, was to inform its readers of what was hap- pening a 1' o u n cl school. Nobly the staff performed this tremendous task, send- ing out eager reporters who, with Spartan courage, Hbrought 'em back alivell- news, of course, being what they brought back. Dreary F r i d a y after- noons were miraculously brightened for subscribers by the appearance of four pages of printing and pic- tures called the Springfield Bulletin Staff High School Bulletin. The paper of which the staff was most proud was the special eight page E carnival issue, which devoted itself to reviewing the history of S. H. S. and of its publications, as well as to giving the news of the week. 1 Working early and late, the staff under its editor, Wilford Kramer, and its advisor, Miss Elizabeth Graham, tried their best to bring to students a picture of the school and the schoolmates. How well they succeeded can, of course, be judged only by the readers themselves. One Hundred Thirly-lhree l Carnival Capers of l937 We of S. H. S. had a coronation rivaling that of the jolly Englishmen, and even surpassing them, in our opin- ion, in our aggregation of vitalized youth and dancing beauty. Besides, think of all the excitement and fun they missed in campaigning for the lady of their heartis desire, the excitement of choosing one of ten enticing mademoi- sellcs for whom to vote. And even matter-of-fact English hearts would have committed treason and turned senti- mental at the sight of venerable Isaac R. Diller proudly crowning his lovely granddaughter Queen ol' the Carnival as her nine maids of honor bowed in homage. Yes, a night of delight for heart and eye. The whole school, from august alumni to frivolous freshmen, united to make it gala. All clubs gave their time and their money. Janitors, hating the man who invented confetti, slaved Without audible complaint. Teachers dis- rupted the schedules they love so well. Everyone felt a personal pride in its success. And, as managers, smoothing ovcr dilficulties and pay- ing personal attention to every detail, the two Rourkes won admiration and wonder from all as to how they packed so much of efficiency into the comparatively little time they had to produce a smooth-running, unprecedented, super- grandandglorious l,Webste1' himself couldn't define itl af- fair.

The Carnival Capers, celebrating the seventy-first anniversary of the school, was a top notch success.

One Hundred Thirty-four He Who Gets Slapped With his affections benumbed, his moral sense vio- lated, a man of genius leaves his distasteful circle of society to become a clown in Papa Briquetls circus in a distant city in France. He hides from his world-hides behind the symbolic name of He Who Gets Slapped. In the circus he meets the clowns in whom he takes great delight, Zanida to wl1on1 his admiration and pity is impelled, and the Tango-dancer, Consuelo, who is to be sold by her foster-father, Count Mancini, to the dissolute Baron Reynard. He determines to save the child at any cost. To do this he finally takes her life and his own. School critics agreed that this play reached a peak in dramatic entertainment. Placing their stamp of approval on it, they acknowledged it a great achievement of the drama class. An innovation this year was the idea of having two leading men. Wilford Kramer played 'gHe,' in the after- noon, while Eden Nicholas took that part in the evening performance. Comparisons are always odious, but each surpassed the other. Top Row:f H. Rohr:-r, E.

Cast of c'He Who Gets Slappedu There's Minti! y i 1936 PRoM ' A gala affair, the Junior- Senior Prom was an im- pressive farewell to the graduates of 1936. Although it was for them the last so- cial affair of' their high school days, they made it an occasion for fun and gaiety and Lalxflf. Glooml' was positively refused ad- mittance. The gyms were a sight to he long remembered. Dec- orated with streamers of' yellow and aqua, and filled with gaily dressed people, -wi one would never associate them with the gyms as they usually appear. Even the school's noted stags, to the delight of the girls and the disgust of their dates, were decked out in their best 'bibs and tuckers for this out- standing event of the school year. Q, Contrary to precedent, the Junior class this year staged a Mid-Year Prom in honor of the mid-year graduates. Although it was quite successful, most students look eagerly forward to the spring prom, which even now is under discussion, and will undoubtedly equal if not excell all the proms of previous years.
