English Department H n If 9 5 II I If II i I HE AIM of the English Department at Washington is to give the pupil the ability to speak and write clear, forceful, colloquial English, and to give him a taste for good reading. It is in this manner that Miss Caroline Murphy, head of the depart- ment, states the purpose of the one department in our school which at some time or other touches personally every student attending Washington. At present, of the 2,399 pupils enrolled in our school, 2,246, or 93.62 per cent, take English. The first aim of the department — to give the pupil the command of clear, forceful, colloquial English — is carried out through the practice work — punctuation, and parts of speech exercises. This year the after-school grammar classes have been inaugurated, by means of which failure students in grammar are given special help until they show some mastery of the subject, and the regular class is not held back. The other great task of this depart ment is to give the pupils an appreciation of good literature and a taste for it, through the intensive study of a few great classics which serve as models. To this end representative novels are studied, as are also some of the best short stories, poems, and essays. It is felt that if the pupil be given a stand- ard, he will be much better able to choose for himself, in later life, the really good in the literature surrounding him. ()nl atuither quiz!

Ralph Blair Lucy Schoenig Commercial Department ' HiLE the primary aim of the Commercial Department is to prepare our high school students to take a place in the business world, still we realize that many of those who take our work will never do office work. We are trying to instruct this latter group in such a manner that they may be able to conduct their own business affairs in a more systematic manner and thereby live in closer harmony with other people and become better citizens of this great commercial nation, said Mr. Ralph Blair, head of the Commercial Department. The department consists of the following classes: Business Arithmetic, Penman- ship and Spelling, Commercial Geography, Shorthand, Typewriting, Business Forms, Office Practice, Advertising, Salesmanship, and Bookkeeping. At present there are seventeen teachers in the department, Mrs. Berdie Flegal having been added as a Typewriting teacher this last year. There are eighty-four classes enrolled which brings approximately 2,100 pupils into the department. This is an increase over last year, and shows that the commercial department is rapidly pro- gressing. IS ' jrway, Sweden, Deniiiark.

It gives students an understanding of the present, Avhich is the fruit of the past, and the germ of the future. Besides-helping stu- dents to become a part of the social world, history is the branch of knowl- edge that records and explains past events as steps in human progress. The maps which Mr. Rutenbeck originated are a great help in vitalizing the facts of the lesson, and help to fix them in the mind. Teachers of the science department strive to teach the student to organize facts which he meets in every day life into the great subject of science, says Mr. Harvey Drake, head of the department which enrolls 1,425 students. General science, a Freshman study, covers some physics, chemistry, biologv, astron- omy, physiology and physiography. To teach sophomores to be good citizens, by giving them a knowledge of general health is the goal of the biology teachers. Chemistry is taught to Juniors to acquaint them with various chemical processes in life, industry, and the arts. Mechanics — heat, electricity, sound, light — are the di ' isions under which seniors are taught Physics. Through General Science, and laboratory ork in Biology, Physics, and Chem- istry, the work of the department is further carried out. PPSMS Hr u W ' B ' ' j y b) In p cJ H m i wj Civin?

Mathematics Edward Berg Manual Arts S athematics and r 7 ftaniial z rts departments ' LMOST seven hundred bovs are entered in twenty-eight classes of metal working, wood turning, cabinet making, and mechanical drawing in the Manual Arts Department. Skill in the use of tools and an appreciation of good materials and workmanship for an intelligent choice of life occupation is the purpose of mechanical acti ities. This year the project method has been carried out in the classes. gi ing the pupil a chance to use his own initiative and imagination. Mathematics! What good is it? Mr. A. B. McCain, head of the mathematics de- partment, states that it helps the students all during their lives. For instance, a bov wishes to become an engineer, he will find all the formulae of engineering expressed in mathematical expressions, and without having studied this the boy cannot be an engi- neer. Mathematics is one of the small group of subjects — like reading, historv, and ge- ography — that is linked up with a large number of the branches of human knowledge. Many ask why a girl should study algebra. The answer can be readily given. Every one should know the meaning of a simple graph, positive and negati e numbers, and the shorthand of the formula.

The ability to converse is an asset in many kinds of business, wherever contact is made with people unable to speak English. It is almost indis- pensable for study abroad and proves very useful in European travel. Foreign language study trains and develops the mind through expression in a strange tongue and translation of it into English. Drill, translation, reading, conversation, vocabulary-study all are employed in the class room to carry out the purposes of the department.

J-fo7ne Sconomics Department HE AIM of the Home Economics department is not, as commonly supposed, onl to develop skill in needle-work, a practical knowledge of jjarment making, and culinary ability. Indeed, these accomplishments are valued and less as compared with the development of skill, knowledge, and appreciation of the processes of home-making, of the essentials of an ade- quate diet, and of the beauty of the home. Good taste in dress, appreciation of labor as applied to clothing, and the effect of the textile industry on clothing prices are stressed. The course tries to show a girl ' s responsibility toward herself, society, and the com- munity. Girls are taught self-control, courtesy, co-operation, and the right health standards. As a final analysis, the Home Economics courses purpose to train girls for worthy home membership. The Survey Course in Home-making, open to Senior girls only, was instituted last September to give to every high school girl an opportunity to know and appreciate something of the science and art of home-making. The course aims to interest each girl in habits of right li ing and protection of health. There are 21 girls in the survey classes, 28 in the food study, and 50 in the clothing.

Cl )  i; Sims, B.A., AI.A. Hazel Haxdt, B.A. Latin Department JJERE ARE two outstanding reasons for knowing Latin: i. It forms the background of the English language ; a knowledge of Latin is highly desirable for one who would thoroughly understand English. 2. It gives a first hand acquaintance -with the Romans, a people who have had a greater influence than any other upon our civilization. This is the opinion of !Miss Hazel Handt, teacher of Latin. Mr. Clyde Sims, an- other teacher, says that Latin is of great cultural value, for the student in reading great masterpieces gets a wider view on life, through familiarity with the great civiliza- tion remote from the present. This knowledge is gained through reading other texts besides the regular translations of Caesar, Cicero, and others, for the purpose of learn- ing the customs, laws, and religion of the Romans. The interest of the students in the subject is evident in the activity of project work, for many interesting projects have been worked out. In the study of English, Latin is a great help, for 66 per cent of the «ords in the English language are from Latin. Roscoe Pound, Dean of the Harvard Law School, has said that there is no better way for a student to train himself in the choice of the very word that will fit his thought than by the translation of Latin and Greek.

Lorraine Pollworth CJiine Arts Department O PUT the whole purpose of the Fine Arts Department in a nutshell : The fine arts are intentionally placed in modern high schools to encour- age finer feeling and sense of beauty. ' Man cannot live by bread alone. Going on the supposition that the mere bread-and-butter of common- place existence is not enough to nourish the mentality and morality of the average high school student, the music department is endeavoring to present him with cake in the form of a real appreciation of music. Briefly outlining the purpose of Public Speaking in the development of the stu- dent, Air. Maule states: We aim to give the student the ability to find, organize, and present material in an interesting and con incing manner. To give the average student an appreciation of beauty in his daily surroundings rather than to develop isolated cases of artistic talent is our aim, states Aliss Polhvorth of the art department.

Everv field of sports was covered during 1927-28. Baseball and football played the leading roles while the climate was still livable, but soon gave way to basketball — both masculine and feminine. Wahiat conducted a tournament, resulting in Evelyn Vietmeyer ' s team carrying off the laurels. The boys, too, held a tournament, on the other side of the fence. Swimming, skating, and some indoor tennis marked the highlights of Washing- ton ' s winter sports, not to forget the great wrestling tournament of Coach Blackbourn ' s boys. Track, again both masculine and feminine, held the attention of all concerned on the very first day after the robins began to sing. ■ ■JIEHi Ejjtf !

Nowhere lut to the office. Either to pour our troubles into the ears of one of the powers-that-be — whoever may be present — or into that sanctum of sanctums, the holy of holies — Mr. Balzer ' s inner office. Mr. Culver, vice-principal, is the one who reigns supreme in the W. H. S. office. He is assisted by I Ir. K. F. Miller, Mr. A. B. McCain, and Mr. Howard Maule. Since Mr. Ralph Chambcrlin left Washington to become vice- principal of North Division, Mr. Miller has taken his place, as head of student super- vision and student government, assisted by Aliss Green. Miss Sylvia Brooks, senior clerk, and Miss Elizabeth Zimmerman, junior clerk and Washington graduate, ably take care of the clerical work, included in which are such things as ninth hour and tardy records, absences, filing, and goodness knows what not all. As a matter of fact, if one needs to know anything about this great institution of ours, these two young women are recommended. Since student government has been inaugurated, a student monitor is alwa s pres- ent in each hour of the day, as well as an assistant from the office practice classes. ■ lH PB| B E? i 8 B Ws ■ 1 Hi ' Km w W II !l N 11 rt M i 1 III Where bad and good folks yo I ' vciitually. ■ ' Jll kinds, any variety.

They, too, distinguished themsehes in every field of endeavor. Their two scholastic high lights, Irma Nemetz, ■aledictorian, and Eleanore Lindner, salutatorian, with the seven girls elected to the National Honor Society, Margaret Franz, Eleanore Lindner, Ruth Beherns, Irene Wachtler, Ruth Harman, Irma Nemetz, and Ruth Powers, carried off the honors in the scholastic and honorary Held. More than ever before has this February Class had members whose names go down on the pages of Athletics of Washington High School. Captain Stan Hollenbeck, Jack Ferris, Tay Albrecht, Wesley Callahan, and Harold Furstenhoefer supported W. H. S. football teams; while on the cinder path there were such stars as Walter Benz, Wesley Callahan, and Bill Enders. Stan Ahrendt was the tennis champ. Even in the literary field were they represented, for Margaret gave three f aithful years to the Bi-weekly feature staff, and was February Class Editor of The Scroll Annual. Miss Zartner and the library were the hardest hit, though. Through gradua- tion she lost Irma Nemetz, Ruth Powers, and Eleanore Lindner. Their commencement, held F ' riday night, February 3, was a glorious affair. AVith Marion Klubertanz and Meta Kemp as flower girls, the class entered to the strains of that ever beautiful Pomp and Circumstance. Their motto, Climb though the rocks be rugged, fittingly expressed their hopes for the future; symbolized by their flower, the rose ; and their colors, old rose and siher. It was hard to see them go, but the ' followed a well beaten trail.

Firs t: We order and direct that our executor, hereinafter named, pay from our estate all just debts and graduation expenses, including an engraved tab- let (diploma) attesting to our departure from this sphere of learning. Second : After the payment of such debts and expenses, we give, devise, and be- queath to the Juniors our home-room seats, including all gum and scraps of paper found within, on or under the same, together with the privilege at the beginning of each semester of allowing some freshman to occupy one of said seats during a study hour and then announcing to him, I ' m sorry, but this is my home-room seat. Third : To the Sophomores we give, devise, and bequeath all our problems of higher mathematics rejected b - the powers that be, from which the aforementioned Sophomores can learn the incorrect method of their solution. Fourth: To the Freshman we bequeath our highly alued, low-priced auditorium seats, so they (the Freshmen, not the seats) can in the future enjoy the gestures and facial expressions, as well as the words of our morning speakers, a privilege not ac- corded them hen they were confined to Assembly A or B. Fifth: To the faculty we give a long period of rest, in which they may recuperate from the nervous strain incurred by association with us for five days of the week, for nine months of each year, for four years. We also grant to them the honor of perusing any or all themes, outlines, book reports, etc., -written bv us which the ' have not previ- ously read to their satisfaction. Sixth : To each and every Washingtonian ve bequeath our innumerable afternoon siestas (from },: 16 to 4:00) in Room 219 from which they can learn, as we did, that silence is golden and ninth-hours are abund:uit. Seventh: To the student body as a whole we leave that intangible, much ap- pealed-to quality, school spirit, in the demonstration of which the students will cheer- fully freeze at football games and bake at track meets. Eighth : All the residue of our possessions, both useful and useless, valuable and invaluable, of whatever kind and wherever found, we hereby bequeath in equal shares to the Principal and to the Janitor of this worthv institution, to be disposed of as the ' may see fit. Lastly: We hereby nominate and appoint a person of great vocal ability, namely Mike, a controlling factor in the school auditorium amplifying system, as Executor of this, our Last Will and ' J ' estament. In Witness Whereof, we have hereunto subscribed our seal, this twenty-second day of June in the year of our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred Twenty-eight. June Class of 1928. [Se.al] Pane Fifly-tiiio j®i Coun. Treas Rep., Rob , Harold ERT Blrns Pics., Philip Ritzenthaler ' al., Clarence Coor Smasal Sec, Helen- Smith Sg.-at-arms, RA • Max une ( eniors px A BRIGHT sun-shiny September 2d da ' , four years ago oo small and ery green Freshmen became members of this great institution. The record that those Freshmen made is one that certainly will not be equaled for a time. In every field covered by high school students have they dis- tinguished themselves. The two coveted positions in the scholastic field went to Clarence Cook, class validictorian, and Jack Last, salutatorian. Their high averages of 94.95 and 94 gave them the honor, but only after four years of hard vork. In the executive field we find that Richard Hintz is president of the Players, ' ernon Erbstoeszer of the Student Council, Jack White of Alphanea, John Zabel of Philomathea, and George Cassel of Lincoln. The science clubs headed bv Evelyn Ger- hardt and Wesley Grothe put that phase of work in the limelight of the school. Dramatics had a glittering and brilliant record in everv way. Trelawnv of the Wells, with its all senior cast, numbered among its leads tried and experienced Play- ers in Charlotte Klemm, Richard Hintz, Betty Brandt, Philip Ritzenthaler, Eleanore Balzer, and Donald Prasser. The state debate, too, had its share of our class with Vernon Erbstoeszer and Jack White as captains, and John Zabel, Rebecca Temkin and Robert Burns, in the ranks. In music, too, we came, saw, and conquered. Cleo Sommers, John Neilson, Eugenia Kante, Wilbur Hillis, Ted Garvey, and Bernice Hess distinguished them- selves in one way or another in -ocal work, while Pauline Mayer carried oft the honors at the piano. The heroes and heroines of the matrix, too, helped in bringing honor on our class in making The Scroll bi-weekly an All-American high school newspaper. On the board were Helen Smith, Mary Cook, Jack Last, Fred Garner, and Ruth Rosenthal. On The Annual, Ruth Rosenthal as editor-in-chief, and Fred Garner as art editor helped to give their class a real Annual. MM Paae Fifty-three IteSf If ' n H 1 4 H I 1.

' ADVENTURE Ml fi W II w t Alen toiled and sweated And lifted heavy burdens. Men heaved and pushed And carried thousands of tons, Swarthy men — untiring — Shoved and pulled, pulled and shoved To load the maiden ship, ' ictoria. Long she has docked And watched men load her With priceless cargo. Long she has lain idle And awaited the great day When the spirit of adventure Would summon her Forth to the open sea and the foot of the rainbow. Now, now the day has come, And friendly faces throng to bid Godspeed — Doubtful old men, laughing ho s, Loving mothers, proud fathers, hoary grandsires All line the shore Praying for the outward bound Aboard the maiden ship, ' ictoria. Throbbing engines, straining timbers. Men stoking hot furnaces With vim and vigor. Youth, waving farewell Weeping, smiling, stern with purpose Vowed to success Aboard the maiden ship, Victoria. ' aae Hiiihty-tntjo What awaits the bold voyagers? Rock, reef, storm, nameless disasters, Unknown terrors crowding upon them. But not alone is the path of the ship dark with foreboding. Days of sun and splendor. Singing winds, foam-silvered waves, shimmering sunsets — These, too, wait for the maiden ship. ' ictoria. ' ' Will the vessel meet its doom At the hand of some slimy sea beast? Will the dreams of the crew be forgotten ? Will the flowers of courage fade? Will the maiden ship sink Down, down to failure and disaster, Its cargo of hope rot and reek?

Ray Kehl and Evelyn Gerhardt were prominent in literary work as president and vice president of Philomathea. Bob Hansen is also well known in this field as a Philo State debater.

Although they are only Juniors now they have distinguished them- selves in every field of work, both curricular and in outside activities. With Harold Wilde and Frank Biersach representing them on the council, they helped that body put across some of its biggest motions and innovations. Their Prom was a famous success and echoed the splendor of the Class of ' 28. Robert Fisher as chairman put over the thing big. But society was not their only field of endeavor. When it came to debate work Frank Biersach carried off the honors in the state debate, while Ruth Benz was a mem- ber of the cast of Trelawny of the Wells, ' the seniors ' class play. In Scroll work John Spearing as feature editor, and Art Ehrmann as a candidate for the editorship, came in for their recognition and helped to make the Scroll an Ail- American. On the Annual, Marjorie Burns as feature editor helped in that phase of journalism. Pai e Kiahty-sei ' cn I hi n I fi ? ff II f if mJ .! !« l Miij| y.M ■ V Pm iv H IIV) ¥. §L R i r lniR| !

JoHX Zabel, President Vernon Erbstoeszer, Vice President (§tudent Council Hi; STUDENT COUNCIL of 1927-1928 had, on the whole, a satisfactory year under the leadership of Vernon Erbstoeszer, President, and the supervision of the faculty advisors, Miss Helen Green, Air. K. F. Mil- ler, and Mr. A. B. McCain. In December the Council lost one of its faculty advisors, Mr. Cham- berlin, an esteemed friend and fellow worker. In his honor, the Council held a recep- tion at which he was presented with a desk set in recognition of his friendship and service. The Council made no radical changes in policy during the past year ; rather, it worked quietly and efficiently towards perfecting such portions of the school machinery as come under its supervision. The faculty advisors deemed it too soon to change our point system and amend our constitution this year, so the executive committee conducted an investigation, considered possible changes, and left a tentative plan for the benefit of future Councils. Suggestions were left for a campaign to improve the attitude of the student body toward honesty and courtesy. An investigation of Student Service was conducted not only in Washington, but in other schools as well. The information and suggestions thus compiled were left for future Councils. This year ' s Council then tested, investigated, and outlined improvements upon the plans of former years, work- ing unostentatiously toward the betterment of the school. In the ordinary course of its business, the Council successfully took charge of the visitors during Open House night, supervised the class elections, administered the school ' s point system, cared for the trophies, resumed responsibility for the revision of the Bookstore Committee, and saw that lockers were locked in the morning rather than at night, for the greater convenience of the students. The Council cooperated with faculty committees in compiling a new song book, in sponsoring a contest to produce a new school song, and in bringing about the organization of a Boys ' Club. On the whole, the Council closed a very successful year: successful in building slowly, solidly, surely toward perfection in the machinery under its jurisdiction; suc- cessful in efficiently handling its ordinary routine; successful in having all types of student opinion — radical and otherwise — freely expressed at the meetings ; successful in bringing about a closer understanding between faculty and student body.

Slsan Cramkr Anion ' ank Tom Ha-i i-s ( tudent Supervision hat ' s your name? Report to 2iy tonight. No, not the words of a teacher. They are the expressions of various student monitors. Of course, giving ninth hours wasn ' t all the ' did; but they were there to keep order; and they kept it even though that some- times made necessary the giving of a ninth hour. The monitors were stationed in the corridors, the study halls, the homerooms, the office, and the cafeteria. One hundred and ninety students took active part in student government, under the direction of Miss Helen Green, Mr. Allison McCain, and Mr. Karl Miller. According to Ir. Lillard Culver, vice-principal, student supervision has been quite successful in the past year. The success of the system was due largely to the un- tiring labor of Anton ' ' ank, who had charge of cafeteria monitors, of Susan Cramer, who directed the assembly monitors, and of Tom Hayes, who supervised hall monitors. Students were placed at the head of each staircase — the main, the north, and the south — during each of the eight periods. Their duties vere to see that there was no loitering in the halls, no opening of lockers between classes, no passing in halls without a permit, and to give information to strangers. According to this year ' s plan, teachers have been in charge of A and B, with stu- dent assistant-monitors to go on errands and to do minor tasks. Student monitors, each under a faculty supervisor, have had charge of all small assemblies, thus relieving teach- ers to mark papers or prepare assignments. Although there are no students in 112 and 11, at any time except the lunch-hour, monitors were placed at the desk in case of calls from the office for teachers who work in these rooms during their free periods. The students wear purple and gold buttons adopted in 1926 as a badge of their authority, a badge they are striving each year to make the mark of a service.

Da ' :ie Rausche Ralph Po croll Literary Staff lURlNG the past year The Scroll staff, under Robert Hansen, editor-in- chief, has upheld the standards set b - former editors, as well as intro- duced changes raising the caliber of the paper. The most outstanding change is the division of the paper into two sections, the first page of the second part being devoted to sports. Due to the fact that the Girls ' Club has grown so greatly and that some division at least was always active, the club was given a regular column and cut on the organi- zation page like other outside activities. A more personal treatment of its activities was striven for. A Who ' s Who column on the editorial page was introduced with the purpose of giving recognition where recognition is due. The ' 28 Tracksters column served the same purpose in sports. Articles on the history of costumes, Zooland Nabors, and student hobbies were also introduced, and in order to make the publishing of The Scroll more efficient, the printing of it was changed from the Ad ertisers Press to the Essanell Press. This year there has been more cooperation between the literary and business staffs. During the subscription campaign, members of the literary staff gave speeches in Freshman English classes enlisting their support through subscriptions. They also helped greatly in selling tickets for Not Quite Such a Goose, the play given by the Washington Players to raise funds for The Annual. llunJrid Tl,irly-n iht iHBH |P1 ' 1 MM K K L- K - 9 M B F pi pmjn J[jM P Btrjjj H H £ B! k JpH toffl H iAi tf jy ByW, I M SH BB K J VJt j - m w«iLii-i =i . .

The department is divided into three sections: ad ertising under Otto Kessler as manager and Harriett Strauss as assistant ; circulation, with Elmer Hartman as head; and bookkeeping, with Esther Drake, treasurer, and IVIarilla Peters as head bookkeeper. The advertising department, composed of Junior and Senior solicitors, secures the advertisements which, appearing in The Scroll, furnish the money needed to carry on the publication of the paper and to make a very liberal payment toward The Annual. A commission of lO ' r is given the solicitor on his ads. Junior solicitors be- come seniors on securing a certain number of inches of advertising. The circulation department has complete charge of securing subscriptions and delivering both issues of the Bi-weekly and Annual — a big job handled in a big way. The bookkeeping department keeps the record of collections and expenditures. Though little heard of, it is of great importance. The department is greatly assisted in its work by the able critics, Mr. Guy Ban- nister and Mr. Harold Fouts. Paffi- One HunJn-J Thirly-rtin, r . fM Yi c II ' i |l H 1 1! f II 4 If i J f 1 1 pi ?

Those elected in JXIay are Robert Hansen, Eugene Schlomovitz, Mary Cook, Nina Silver, David August, and Charles Pinney of the Literary Staff, and Otto Kessler and Esther Drake of the Business Department. Last semester ' s candidates are Helen Smith, Dorothv Fuller. Ruth Rosenthal, Fred Garner, Jack Last, and George Hampel. Besides the requirements in Journalism, all members must be in the upper third of their class in scholarship. Samples of the students ' work were sent to Iowa City, the national headquarters of Quill and Scroll. A paragraph from a letter A ritten to Miss ' an ' liet by Mr. Gallup, secretary-treasurer of the organization, expresses very well indeed the caliber of the work submitted. I have read the samples of work submitted by your candidates for Quill and Scroll membership. I wish to compliment you and them upon the high quality of their writing. Their qualifications are such as to entitle them to membership in the society. Jack Last and Dorothy Fuller were elected as president and secretary, respectively, of the Washington Chapter by those members chosen last semester, and they presided at the initiation of the new members held later in the semester. ' - ' - Onr llundrrJ Forty M ' r VCP or thcc X ' rn iondly drszammd m fr rm Tf TTTT ' TnT The Band n If 11 XOTHER successful year has been add;d to the Washington High School Band records. The band has played at several functions and has done its bit toward livening up the football games. Led by Mr. Harry O ' Neil and Ir. Hasso Pestalozzi. its manager, the band has probably had its mo?t successful year. On April 20 the band gave its annual concert. It differed from the past recitals in that no elty pieces were added to the program. This proved a delightful innovation and af- forded the listeners much pleasure. Not only has the band placed before the school, but it has given several programs before clubs, among which were the Milwaukee Turn ' erein. Besides this both the Junior and Senior organizations have played at Open House. The Junior Band too has come through the year with flying colors. It affords a great oppor- tunity for experience, it is a stepping stone to the Senior Band, and it also affords a position to those who are not ready for the Senior Band. The band has had several new instruments given to it. Several new members have also been added. One of the most interesting novelties the band offers is the xylophone played by James Schaefer. He played it several times before the school, giving several selections at Open House and at the Scroll-Player Matinee. The officers of the band are George Zwalina. president; Edgar Steffen, vice-president: Os- car Gallun, secretary ; Howard Sieloff. treasurer ; lajorie Powers, Student Council representa- tive: and Keith Rindfleisch, student manaeer. 11 George Zwalina Maxle ' i ' Vhitco Huijf Onr Hundred Furty-tixa if The Band ill 1) !l II || II 11 Officers President George Zwalina ' ice-president Edgar Steffen Secretary Oscar Gallun Treasurer Howard Sieloff Council Re[ ' resentati ' e Marjorie Powers Student Manager Keith Rindfleisch Faculty Manager Hasso Pestalozzi Director Harrv O ' Neil Hasso Pestalozzi Harrv O ' Neil 14 II 1 Piuj,- One lIunArcci Forty-tZ r W6 ' i The ir.H.S. Sinmr Orchestra TToe Orchestra fHE ORCHESTRA, comprisint: in all fift -si memhers, has closed another Red Letter ear, its hifih-water mark being the presentation in audi- torium on April 13th of Mozart ' s Concerto in D Major. ' Pauline Mayer played the piano solo. Durinij the year the orchestra played at several auditorium meet- ings. The programs included Schubert ' s Moment ! Iusicale and L nhnished Sym- phony ; March of the Boyards by Halvorsen ; The Swan and The Lost Chord ' by Sullivan, with chorus and organ; Mozart ' s Jupiter Symphony ist movement. The entire orchestra met on Section 2 days on the stage of the auditorium. On the alternate days Mr. Smith rehearsed the string section in 411. A Knabe concert erand piano wn-. bought of Kesselman-O ' DriscoU Compan ' in February, and has been in use in the auditorium since. The old piano was sent to the music room, 411. Another outstanding orchestral performance was the accompaniment of the operetta The Bos ' n ' s Bride on the evening of January 20th. The orchestra also played for Open House in November, attracting a large crowd to the auditorium. The officers of the first semester were Manley Whitcomb, president, William Nosik, ice-president, and Gertrude John, secretary-treasurer. The second semester, Anton ' ank held the office of president ; William Nosik, vice-president ; and Gertrude Jtjhn. treasurer-secretary. The harp classes, including twelve students, progressed rapidly under Mrs. Emma Osgood-Moore. Several of the pupils took part in a program before the con- vention of the Wisconsin Federation of Music Clubs. The first semester, ] Iarjorie Anspach and Margaret Lytton played a duet at convocation. On April 27th, at the Band Concert, Marjorie Anspach accompanied Frank Biersach and Milton Sizer, of the orchestra, and Lillian Cronau accompanied the mixed quartet. J he Junior Orchestra has been progressing under the supervision of Mr. Smith and played for Open House in November.

Sextette ETROSPECT will be considerably brightened when one thinks of the 1927- 1928 career of the Girls ' Sextette. Their efforts have been particularly outstanding because of their ever-present desire to entertain the school ith a high quality of music. The Sextette is composed of six regular members, Virginia Schaefer and Cleo Sommers, sopranos; Berenice Hess and Betty Swickard, second sopranos; Marion Leet and Helen Smith, altos; Muriel Gordon, Ruth Dunning, and Janet Brown, substitutes. Alice Zahn accompanied them. The girls have appeared on several programs, the first of which preceded the Homecoming football when, in costume, they sang a pep song, the words of which had been written by Helen Smith. The Sextette has sung at several morning auditorium meetings, which included the Thanksgiving program, at which they sang the opening chorus from the cantata, The First Thanksgiving ; at the farewell auditorium meet- ing of the February class, when they sang The Coppah Moon ; and at the Armistice Day program, when they accompanied several of the tableaux presented by the Players. When Open House was held on October 19, the Sextette sang At the Tea House and the Gypsy Serenade. Later they appeared on the program of the Girls ' Club Hallowe ' en party. Part of the program at the Girl Reserves ' Annual Breakfast at the First Alethodist Church was furnished by the Sextette. The Sextette ' s first semester of contributions was well-rounded out when they sang Tiptoe and Six Little Alaids at School on January 20 in the Glee Clubs ' Operetta. Beginning the second semester, the girls sang before the girls of the school when Miss Lucia Briggs, president of Downer College, spoke. Washington will hardly forget the antiphonal singing between the Girls ' Glee Club on the stage and the Sextette in the balcony when these organizations sang The Sun Worshippers. Again at- the Older Girls ' Conference in Plymouth Congregational Church on March 24, the Sex- tette contributed to the impressive service h singing Abide AVith Me and Lovelv Appear.

April 28, at the Kiwanis Club May 9, and they broadcasted from WTMJ May 15. Thru graduation this June the quartette lost two of the members, John Neilson and Wilbur Hillis. They entered the National Contest for Male Quartettes held under auspices of the National Music Supervisors ' Conference at Chicago April 16 to 20, and were awarded third place. The songs thev sang were Sylvia and Soldiers of the Captain. ' The award was an engraved shield. They also took part in the State Contest iield Ma 4 at the Milwaukee State Teachers ' College, won first place, and at the State contest held May 11 and 12 at Aladison were given first place.

The Ushers ' mon gaxg, let ' s have a yell for the ushers of ' 27 and ' 28 ! If ou have attended any of Washington ' s evening performances, you will have seen some of these boys. Whether it is a debate, play, or operetta, these boys are at the auditorium, ready to serve you. The ushers present themselves at practically every evening performance except dances. ou may wonder who the boys are. Well, here they are: Fred Hofmeister, Sol Lewensohn, George Johnston, Elmer Van Lore, Julius Enders, Eugene Grether, Reynolds Tjensvold, Charles Burbach, Carl Bauman, Otto Kessler, Carl Weckmueller, John Loeber, Bud Nelson, Alvin Drescher, Earl Kunz, Donald Evenson, Wesley Grothe, Robert Burns, and Elroy Ehlenfeld. The ushers are under the direction of Air. Guy Cook, faculty advisor, Fred Hofmeister, student head usher, and Sol Lewen- sohn, assistant head usher. Be fore each reserved seat performance, the bo ' s gather in Room 210, to get the necessary instructions from Mr. Cook. Last year ' s policy of roping oft the aisles Avas continued. In this way the people were kept more orderly and less noise was made in leading the people to their seats during the performance. The main requirements for being an usher are good scholarship and initiative. If these two qualities are shown, a hoy can be introduced and possibly accepted for ushership. After becoming an usher a boy has much possibility to develop his character. During 1927 and 1928, Washington High School ushers carefully presided over the auditorium. That is, some boys stood at the doors and accepted admission tickets, while other bo s directed the people to which seat and aisle they should go. -Many of last year ' s ushers were graduated, but with new material Air. Cook, Sol Lewensohn, and Fred Hofmeister built up one of the best staffs. All right, gang, let ' s have another cheer for our ushers.

From a long list of girls waiting to be admitted, the attendants are chosen with respect to their good health, creditable scholarship, dependable charac- ters, poise, and ability to take intiative in an emergency. Each must be recommended by a woman teacher with whom she has had at least one full semester of work. The girls are given whatever training that is needed by Miss Green. This train- ing is of great use, not onlv to girls who are interested in nursing, but it increases any girl ' s general knowledge. During the past semester the attendant schedule was as follows: first hour, Leola Dalton ; second hour, Ruth Wallschlaeger ; third hour, Carolyn Anderson ; fourth hour, Marjorie Peterson; fifth hour, Alice Klein; sixth hour, Marian Maltby; seventh hour, Margaret Hackett; and eighth hour, Helen Stiehm. These girls have the author- it) ' to enforce the rules of the iniirmary, which in the main provide that there be no visiting or studying, but that there be absolute quiet. White uniforms, which not only give a neat, dignified, and professional appear- ance, but protect the school dresses, are worn hen on duty. The attendants them- selves launder them once a week, thereby contributing financial aid to the Infirmary. During the past year the girls have had meetings on an average of once a month at which they either discussed the wa s and means of improving the Infirmary or had outside speakers as guests. On March ist they met for a tea at which Mrs. Richard Oemke, who has been a public health nurse for fifteen years, spoke on Public Health Nursing as a Vocation. If an attendant has served for two consecutive semesters, she is presented a Cer- tificate of Service on graduating. In addition to this the attendants are in ited to the annual Girls ' Club Honor Tea, where each one who has served a full ear is given a purple patch with a gold service cross on it.

Wise Library OOKS, BOOKS, and more books, demanding space and more space which, combined, give service and more service still to the student body — that, in brief, is the history of Washington ' s library during the past year un- der the guidance of Miss Norma Zartner, school librarian. In all, some 3,050 books have been added to Washington ' s library since the close of last school year. Many of them comprise English sets of 200 each of such classics as Julius Caesar and The Ancient Mariner. Of the volumes added, the Lincoln Library of Essential Information is per- haps outstanding. ' Fhev are one-volume encyclopedias and are located in A, B, 210, and 220. This is the first year the smaller assemblies have had encyclopedias. With the addition of so many books came the need of more space for them. To gain this, the news-rack has been changed to the east wall, the space it formerly occu- pied to be used for shelves. The new book truck also furnishes more much needed space. «lll ' The library lluuiirt ' ti Sixty-tivo Roland Hudeiikami Harry Lewis Mr. Mkrkkn Ed.

The main duty of the boys is to stage all plays. This is amply supplemented, however, bv arrangement of auditorium stage seats, run- ning slide and moving picture machines, handling lighting effects, keeping the audi- torium ventilated, and countless other tri ial duties which tend to tax their patience. nODCL STAGE.

Think of the endless time and mone} wasted if one were farced to go down town every time one wanted a theme pad or a text book or a folder cover ! Few students realize how great a part the Bookstore plays in the well-being of the school ; fe v students appreciate what a great ser ice it renders them in giving them everything in the way of classroom material — at cost or, to cover the expense of handling the books, at a few cents above cost. The store is open the week before school opens to enable those students who wish it to buy their books and have them for the first day ' s work. During the first three davs of session, the store is open continuously from 7: 55 to 5 — until everyone waiting is served. Even during school hours it remains open to allow students to get ma- terials during their free periods. From about the fourth day on, the regular hours are resumed — 7:55 to 8:25 in the morning, and 11:30 to 12:35 ' it noon. It is not open after school. The boys to whom goes the credit of performing such a service to the school are Frederick Frey, Albert Ericson, Joseph Boch, regulars ; and Joe Zack, Lawrence Bur- dett, helpers. The faculty critic is Mr. William Woods. In his own little room under the east stairway on the first floor, Ralph Hoge su- pervises the selling of second-hand books. It is here that students may come to purchase used books, or bring them there to be sold. A ruling, though, is that all books must be in first class condition with all marks or answers erased.

Bryant. ii r Orn llundrrd Sixly-six if The ' Washington Players riiXELOPMEXT of dramatics in e ery va has been the goal and endeavor ' of the Washington Pla ers in the past two semesters. Through the various I public performances presented throughout the year, the ultimate goal has : been reached ; but it was only through learning the fundamentals in every respect that success has been gained. The Player workshop programs throughout the year ha e been diversified as well as interesting and instructive. Each one has contributed something either directly or indirectlv to our knowledge of dramatics. For the people who took part in the plays there was the contact with coaches, and experience in acting before a group ; for the student coaches, invaluable training; and for the Player audience, practice in intelligenth criticizing and judging the work of fellow students. Early in fall an adaptation from Dickens ' Pickwick Papers, Bardell s. Pick- wick, was presented. Dickens ' characters, always caricatures, proved an interesting problem for the cast to work out. The Players in this performance were Donald Prasser, John Cleary, Daniel Hoffman, Harry Forman, AVesley Grothe, Edna Frye, and Clara Brossell. A meeting was turned open to the senior English students at the presentation of Lady Gregory ' s The Rising of the Moon, because the English VII classes were study- ing it at the time. The cast, composed of Richard Hintz, the ragged man ; Philip Ritzen- thaler, sergeant of police: Robert Burns and Fred Garner, two policemen; did a fine piece of work. A student coached production was another play given. This time the emphasis was laid on student initiative. Bernice Hess and Marie Weber successfully presented Chris- topher Morley ' s comedy, Thursday Evening. Its cast included Ray Hunholz, ] Iar- garet Klar, Beatrice Schlomovitz, and Elizabeth Doepke. Interspersed throughout the semester were various other interesting phases of dramatic work, emphasized a little at almost every meeting. Near the beginning of the semester Miss Strohm gave the senior girls a lesson in make-up, and in the succeeding plays these girls helped in getting the cast ready, especially when the performance was presented before the school. Miss Julia Kuhlig gave the Players a lesson in dancing, and early in the new semester, the Wisconsin Anti-tuberculosis Association sent its repre- sentative who gave a puppet show, Know Naught. Miss Dorothy Hirschfeld, a dra- matic pupil of Miss Imogene Andre, read a cutting from Happiness at a March meeting. The Boy Comes Home, with its cast of Ray Kehl, Doris Vecker, Ruth Benz, Frank Mueller, and Margie Gelbke ; and Where But In America, played by George Cassel, Marie Weber, and Lucille Benz were two one act plays presented at the spring meetings. Besides these practice plays, the Players place to their credit a number of public performances, among which are the Armistice Day Pageant; the Christmas Play, Hollytree Inn ; a pantomime group during National Drama Week; a one act play, Not Quite Such a Goose ; and the final conquest of the season, the senior class play, Trelawnv of the Wells.

The pla - presented both Friday and Saturday, May i8th and 19th, was a triumph to the efforts of all connected with its production. Aliss Inez Strohm and Mrs. Boundey were in charge of the dra- matic production, assisted by Berenice Hess, student coach ; Mr. Donald Alereen super- vised the stage. Trelawny of the Wells was selected by the senior members of the Players be- cause it gave more opportunities to the Players than the average comedy. Of its twenty- two characters, nineteen are excellent and distinct types that afforded the cast fine op- portunities; it has six distinct leads. Each of the four acts occurs in a different place, thus lending dixersitv to the pro- duction. In Act I we find the actors of the Wells gathered in Mr. and Airs. Telfer ' s living room for a supper to bid goodbye to Rose Trelawny, who is leaving the profes- sion to marry Arthur Gower. Act II finds Miss Rose among the folks of the west end barely existing through the usual after dinner sleeping episode. In Act III the scene goes back to Mrs. Mossop ' s boarding house. The young heroine has given up marrying Arthur and has come back to the stage, only to find that her talents are gone after her brief respite with the aristocracy. The solution to all the trials and troubles of everybody concerned is worked out successfully in the last act at the rehearsal of the play, written by Tom Wrench, fmanced by Sir William, and acted by Rose Trelawny and Arthur GoAver as the hero and heroine. All the members of the cast were seniors and all the leads were taken by the stu- dents who, through their four years in school, had been members of the Players for a time and had taken part in various other productions, thus enabling them to give their best to this their final play.

C7 orenstc JXE OF THE biggest opportunities offered to high school pupils in this day and age is valuable training in public speaking. Particularly in Wash- ington High School do we lay emphasis on speech work. Washington is a member of the Wisconsin forensic league that pro- motes an interest in speech work in four lines for high school students. Each spring a contest is held in oratory, declamations, extemporaneous reading, and extemporaneous speaking. All high schools that are members of the league participate in the series of contests that are held. First a school contest is held to decide the champion of that .school. Then a dis- trict contest is held, next a sectional, and finally all the contestants who were victorious in the sectional contests meet in ] Iadison for the grand finale to decide the state cham- pions. Through this system, approximately 3,000 high school students are given aluable training and experience in whatever of the four fields they choose. In the oratorical contest, the contestants must memorize a ten minute oration. Vashington ' s victorious contestant, John Zabel, gained his title by defeating Richard ffintz, and Albert Ericson. In the declamations, too, the contestants must memorize a ten minute selection, onlv this time a reading, or a cutting for some play or book. Eleanore Balzer repre- sented Washington by defeating Ruth and Lucille Benz. Contestants in the extemporaneous speaking are given five topics from which they must choose one and prepare a five minute talk, without the use of any material, to be presented in one hour. Jack White was again declared victor. He represented Wash- ington last year in the 1927 contest. He defeated Robert Hansen and Robert Burns. Similar to the extemporaneous speaking contest is the extemporaneous reading event. Only this time the speakers are given three books from which they must select one, to prepare in an hour to be presented before the audience. They read from the book selected. Hazel Broker, by defeating ' ernon Erbstoeszer and Rosalie Grace, was declared winner.

Two teams are maintained, an affirmative and negative, each with its captain, coach, regular members, and alternates. This year ' s team was a famous one. Never before has a debate team been organized that had such a wealth of experienced and tried members. Without an exception they were hardened members. Resolved, That every motorist in the State of Wisconsin Be Compelled to Carry an Insurance Policy of $5,000 to Provide and Maintain Evidence of His Financial Responsibility to That Amount, was the question on which both sides fought so des- perately. The first debate of the season saw both teams victorious. On February 17th the Negative team journeyed to Kenosha and defeated that school ' s affirmative team. Jack White, captain, Frank Biersach, Robert Burns, and Rebecca Temkin were on that team. On the same night the West Allis Negative team met defeat in the W. H. S. auditorium at the hands of the Affirmative team, Vernon Erbstoeszer, captain, Nina Silver, Ernest Eisenberg, and John Zabel. The second round of debates saw a victory and a defeat, that caused the 1928 team to be dropped from the contest. Debate work entails long and intensive study. Tryouts were held late in the first semester, but for months before that aspirants had been studying the question. Informal discussions and meetings were held on Wednesdays until the tryouts. Of the half hundred people who tried out, eight were selected to constitute the regular team, and their work extended over another month, or until, by irtue of their defeat, they were eliminated from the contest. Mr. Howard Maule and Mr. Kenneth Dewe -, both public speaking teachers, had charge of the debates, while they were assisted in the selection of the contestants by members of the faculty, experienced in speech work, who acted as judges in the various elimination tryouts and practice debates.

The efforts of our coaches have been rewarded, if not with championships, with the tine spirit and caliber of the teams produced. The football team won second place in the city league, while the track team worked smoothly and always made a good showing. Both football and track teams were noteworthy for their team work and their willingness to practise faithfully every night. Never was there a dissenting voice about the overwhelming odds. Not once did the team go to pieces just because someone did not do the expected, or because someone got the signals mixed. The teams this year were fortunate in electing capable captains, Stan HoUenbeck, football ; and Bob Schomann, track. Both deserved the honor gi en them and li ed up to expectations in their accomplishments. During the winter, the gymnasium was filled with excitement and action. The wrestling contest was held again this year, with many boys taking part. Winners in each division competed for the school championship, until Ed Huenerbein was declared school champ and was awarded a banner for his efforts. The gym was also the scene of many a thrilling basketball game. The boys were divided into various leagues and an elimination tournament was held. Cross country also attracted many a boy; while, instead of a turkey-day race, many short events were scheduled. Not to be outdone by the boys, the girls had their own basketball tournament, which was as exciting as any interscholastic contest. The girls fought hard for their teams, and the games were always watched by other girls who rooted for their favorites. With the track season and the cit meet, another successful season for Wash- ington ' s teams come to a close. -May next ear ' s sport calendar equal that of the i927- ' 28 sport year. Paffe One Hundred Eitility-sci ' en I 11 % Wesley Callahan Robert Schiller Boys ' ylthletic Association HE Bo s ' Athletic Association began its second vear yhh a membership drive in September, 1927. Under the leadership of Mr. Lillard Culver and Mr. Albert Ericson five hundred boys were enrolled. Much of the club ' s success was due to the efficient work of the cabinet, which was composed of the following; officers: Wesley Callahan, president; Robert Schiller, vice-president; Stan Feld, secretary; Ray Max, treasurer, and Theophil Albrecht, sergeant-at-arms. Because of the graduation of Wesley Calla- han in February, Robert Schiller automatically took over the position as president. One of the best and most successful football hops ever held at Washington was given by the boys ' athletic association after the 1927 football season. The proceeds from this hop helped materially in the purchasing of equipment for the various athletic teams. The boys ' athletic association ■v -as also responsible for the sale of tickets to the football games. Due to the wonderful work in salesmanship, a record was made in the sale of tickets for a single game, more than sixty-five hundred having been sold for the homecoming game. [he officers of the athletic association also represented it on the school athletic council — a very important organization which controls all the finances of the athletic association, settles all athletic questions, and purchases all athletic materials, such as emblems, football uniforms, and track equipment. During the year, the athletic council voted to award emblems to deserving swimming team members, a special emblem with the word swimming being designed for that purpose. Encouraged by the success of the association ' s work of the past ear, and the recog- nition it has received by the student body for rendering such invaluable aid to the athletes who represent the schocjl, the club is assured of a hearty response from the boys next year. ' af f On,- llunJrrJ i.iglity-nijhl r ( Coach Lisle Blackbourn ' s third year as guide of Washington ' s destinies in football is now completed. Again let it be said that Liz turns out fine teams, for the three teams that he has produced ha e been among the best. As both coach and friend, he had all the fellows working their hardest for him ; not once did his team stop fighting, so much did the respect him.

Ralph Hoge Ruth Barrett Adelaide Lins Rali-h Roussv Qheerleaders ' LL RIGHT, Washington, let ' s have a big yell for our cheerleaders, those four pep artists who served us so faithfully in time of need. Take it slow and make it loud. Let ' s show them how much we appreciate their good work. In those good old days, when the entire school was assembled in the auditorium, the four yell leaders often rushed out on the stage, rousing the students in cheers for the team and school. Remember the cheerleader contests when the school chose Ralph Roussy and Ralph Hoge to be the husky leaders, while Adelaide Lins and Ruth Barrett proved to be the best of the weaker sex? For the first time in many years the cheerleading squad changed their motions from the straight forward form to the newer and more progressive type of regulated movements in all directions. No matter how muddy the field nor how disagreeable the day, they were always ready and cheerful. Many a time when one of W. H. S. teams ' chances looked slim, these four yell leaders would prance out on the field, or on the stage, and lead the students in a yell that would give that needed inspiration for victorv.

Coached bv ]Mr. Robert Ewers, the team practised faithfully and offered much opposition to the first team. Thirty-five players, from the orifiinal sixty, were trained in fundamentals, correct bodily carriage, and the safe manner of falling. The first game as lost by one point to the Tech team, composed of several first team men and a few reserves. At the end of the first half Washington led, 6 — O, but six consecutive forward passes and a good kick changed the score, 7 — 6. The whole team plaved excellentU- for so earh in the season. The line charged hard and fast, and the backs checked the opposition. AVagin, Berg, Stuewe, Begel, Zosel (captain), Nelson, Rothstein, Zugsheim, Sickert, and Hopkins starred. On October 22, the team lost to Norris farm, jj — o, at Mukwonago. Out- weighed ten pounds to a man, the seconds held the Norris men to 6 — O in the first half, but a shower of forward passes demoralized the team and netted four touchdowns. Anderson, Ehlert, Rindfleish, Kleckner, and Hopkins starred. The seconds defeated St. John ' s Cathedral All Americans November 11, on a very muddy field. The score, ig — O, could easily have been tripled on a dry field. The following Friday, the Pur-Gold seconds defeated West ' s reserves. The score, 6 — o, does not indicate Washington ' s real strength, for the quarters were short.

What ' s all the noise about? ( h, that ' s only the cross country men. Last fall, when Coach R ' leyer oiled up his track ■histIe, one hundred and se enty men reported, to wear out shoes and work up an appetite. This team of runners was the biggest Washington has ever had. The fellows worked hard the whole season, jogging three or four miles every day. Many of them showed promise which was justified this spring. Wurl, Schoman, Saft ' ert, and Bruns were the shining lights of the season. The freshmen had the lar gest turn- out, with the sophs, the juniors, and the seniors next in number. The main event of the season was the Turkey Day Race. L nlike any previous race, it was run by classes and divided into a number of short races. This was more interesting than the old manner of running cross country. The events were all closely contested affairs, and no one but Schoinann could afford to take his time. Bruns copped the 220 and the 440 open. Bagley won the freshman 440, with Zwalina and Euch furnishing competition. Boyle ran a good race in the 880 for first semester sophs, Ross and Sehn being runners-up. Among the freshmen that starred in the meet was Stockland. This little fellow shows promise in the 100. Cross Country season helps the fellows get in trim for the track season, and gives them a good sport in the winter. Ever car in every a the cross country squad is getting better and better.

Coach [Meyer had the problem of finding weight men and fellows for the jumps. The six experienced and seasoned track men were Donahue and Max in the dashes, Errath in the 440, Braun and Trost in the hurdles, and Schomann in the mile. Besides these six, the squad received a flock of distance men from the cross country team, foremost of these being Saitert. Wurl. Leland, and Schwalbach. The team was well stocked in the dashes with Donahue, Henkel, Braun, Bruns, Max, Errath, Trost, and Peckarsky. This bunch took care of the 100, 220, and 440, with Donahue also in the broad jump; Braun, Bruns. and Trost in the hurdles; and Max in the javelin. Coach Blackbourn, in an attempt to produce some good weight men, spent his time teaching the fellows the right method in the shot-put, discus, and javelin. Those who showed up well in these events were Powers, Schiller, Reschlein, Barr, and Max. Thus a formidable team was rounded into shape. With a representative team. Coach Me er began to schedule some preliminar - meets that were real tests for the State and City contests. Dual meets were held with East and Bay Mew, while relay teams were sent to the Madison and Marquette Re- lays. Then, as a final test, the team took part in the Lawrence College meet a week before the State test on May 26. No matter A here the team placed, the satisfaction remains that thev tried.

Over 1 1 5 boys reported when Coach Arthur Mexer issued the call for candidates. These were di ided into two leagues of eight teams each. Jim Salentine ' s team won the Senior League, -while Edward Errath ' s five captured the Intermediate League Championship. In the play-ofJ for the champion- ship, Salentine ' s men romjied awa x ith Errath ' s team, 8-, Brode, Huenerbein, Salentine, ' I ' orn, and Sickert composed the champion five. Salentine ' s hunch c)n the Senior League Championship by whipping Bob Schil- ler ' s men, 8-1. Errath ' s gang won in their league over H. Gruehn ' s team, 8-4. The winners were decided bv elimination, any team losing two games being automatically dropped. One of the main purposes of basketball was to keep the fellows in trim for track. Besides, it gave more fellows a chance to participate in athletics. The teams, of seven men each, were chosen according to height and ability. The captains appointed by Mr. -Meyer were in the Senior league, Kelly, Enders, Schomann, Schiller, Salentine, Ferris, Rothstein, and Benz; in the Intermediate League, Begel, Errath, Kohler, Gruehn, Sweet, Luck, Buchen, and Carney. Most of the games were refereed by Bully Callahan, Walter Benz, or Willard Ellingson. Fred Hofmeister and Warren Nelson managed the tournament. Commenting on this sport. Coach Meyer declares, Basketball was more popular this year than any other. I am happy to see such a large number of fellows out. If this keeps up, basketball will be instituted as an interscholastic sport. I enjoyed working with the fellows very much. An inter-class basketball meet was scheduled, but due to early track practice the meet wtis dropped. Here ' s for a bigger and better tournament next year. ' ,iyr Tu:o Hundred Si. Edgar Gl ' kmber Robert Dux lop (§kating Team [BOVE is Washington ' s newly organized skating team, wliich, during the ' 27- ' 28 winter had one of its best seasons. This was accomplished under the able direction of Mr. John Hercher, faculty coach, and Edgar Guember, student director. Even under adverse weather conditions, the boys practised to obtain better speed and skill on the ice. The team was composed of Earl Ericson, Edgar Guember, Charles Dettman, Howard Hoffman, Robert Dunlop, Ed Schumacher, Donald Schmidt, Thomas Boyle, and Charles Bridges. Due to the fine skating of Edgar Guember and Howard Hoffman, who placed in all the events, the team walked off with the newsboys ' championship. Earl Ericson ' s wonderful brand of skating brought him a first place and assisted Washington in the State Championship races. The climax of the skating team ' s endea ors came with the Cit Championship ] Ieet, in which Washington ranked high. Here, Robert Dunlop, mainstay of the Purple and Gold, came through with two Hrst places. In addition, he broke his o ' n record for the cadet 220- ard dash. The Washington skaters placed in e cry meet in which tlK ' were entered. Also, all the members of the team starred in tiie heats. During the season, tile speed exhibited was seldom excelled. The team had arranged for dual meets with arious other high schools in the city, but due to the poor skating weather it was forced to call them off. The weather also caused the cancellation of se eral municipal meets, in wiiich the Pur-Golders would probably have won more laurels. Next year, Edgar Guember, one of the best of student coaches, will be lost to the team because of graduation. Also other members of the team will be graduated. Page Tilo HunJrcil Srvrn i ictoiious II ahiat Team Wahiat tASKiiTBAi.i., Ioiil: hikes, baseball, and Ma Pule — all make one think of AVahiat, a club composed of girls wishing to partake in athletics. The Club started its activities with a long hike last fall and has had an interesting year of sports. The hike brought about twenty-five girls into the fresh air of Lovers ' Lane, Wauwatosa. A good game of football and a fire helped to warm the girls into enthusiasm for coming events. The large membership of two hundred girls helped to make a large competitive field for the twelve basketball teams. A long practice before the elimination tourna- ment enabled the teams to ha e exciting competition. The managers of the teams ■were A ' largaret Horak, Betty Barrett, Louise Hartman, Alice Porter, Dorothea Mendel- sohn, AI rtle Weygehaupt, Adelaide Lins, Margaret Dietz, Evelyn Vietmeyer, Loraine Kraus, Viola Jones, and Dorothy Ericson. Emblems were awarded the ' ietmeyer Team, the winners of the tournament. Wahiat had six teams in the baseball tield, although no emblems were awarded for winners, players enjoying the game just for fun. It was used as the filling-in sport between the basketball season and the rehearsals for ' Slay Day. The Spring Festival, with its innumerable numbers of folk dances and delightful trippings, took place on June g. This custom was again sponsored by Wahiat and the Girls ' Clubs. Many Wahiat members took part in the gentle art of dancing. Coming back to the executive side of Wahiat, one sees that the officers for the fall semester were Ruth Powers, president; Viola Jones, vice-president; Frieda Stockland, secretary; and Loraine Kraus, treasurer. These girls, proficient in governing the organi- zation, were succeeded by the following: Evelyn X ' ietmeyer, president; Adelaide Lins, vice-president ; Wilma Nieman, secretary ; Dorothy Held, treasurer. To these two groups of officers goes much of the credit for the very successful year which the organi- zation has experienced. Pa! f T ' v.rj llundrrd E ' ujht The Golf Club golf With a membership of seventy-five, the lar;;est in the history of the Golf club, the 1928 club started its activities by electing Dan Hoitman, president; Ted ' oi2;el, vice-president ; Marjorie Burns, secretary ; and Charles Bridges, treasurer. The newly elected cabinet began their work promptly by drawing up a tentative list of candidates for the team, after all members had handed in their lowest score. Through the cooperation of Mr. Balzer and Mr. A. E. Miller, the club was able to procure a golf net in order to give all aspirants of the team early practice in the various shots. Besides this, the candidates were asked to hand in their scores whenever they played ; with this system, a formidable team was selected for the tournaments. In the first meet of the year, the team was defeated by West, g — 4. The loss was partially due to the greenness of the team and lack of organization and practice. The first contest served as a lesson to the fellows, who later received much valuable aid from their membership in the club. The members who showed up the best were Chester Burg, John Clauder, Carl Crane, Albert Ericson, Edgar Guember, Dan Hoffman, Charles Alenzel, Ted Vogel, Lester Wesenberg, George Zwalina, Charles Bridges, and Paul Bringe. The club had fi e committees also guiding its destinies. The entertainment com- mittee planned interesting programs, while the match committee drew up a schedule and had charge of the contests with other schools and facultv. The other three com- mittees were membership, publicity, and property, who worked hard for the interests of the club. With the state meet, the work of the Golf club came to a close, leaving be- hind an enviable record. Patie Tiio HuriLlrrd Nine H I! If ii m m The T, Club Tennis With the comini: of sprinii the tennis enthusiasts hauled out their rackets and started things going. At a meeting attended by forty-five members, Billy Schommer was elected president, with Evelyn ' ietmeyer, vice-president ; Frieda Stockland, sec- retary ; Jane Last, treasurer ; and George Zuppar, sergeant-at-arms. A large program was carried quite successfully. Tournaments to determine the boys ' and the girls ' championships were sponsored by the club. The matches, paired ac- cording to the contestants ' ability, numbered sixteen for the boys and twelve for the girls. Billv Schommer and Dave Effier were the only members left from last year ' s team; so it was up to the club to select the remaining three members. These played at Madison for the State championship. Several of the members of the team won consistentl throughout the season. In the game with Wauwatosa, whom they downed 7 — o, Schommer won his singles match 6 — I, 6 — O. Paul Clemens, Dave Effler, and Ira Burg also won easily. In the doubles Burg and Schommer won 6 — 4, 6 — O, while Effler and Clemens von 6—3,6—1. The plavers who still were in the running near the end of the tournament were Paul Kuhlen, Maurice Rice, Don Ross, Fred Julien, Ray Sucky, Eugene Posner, Les Anderson, Harold Langlois, Everett Huppert, Charles Troxel, and Erwin Burg. If appearances are true, the team was a strong one this year. Schommer, hailed as a coming Tilden, has on the Journal Tennis matches for two years in succession. He is a fast, steady player. Good luck. Team! Washington is with }ou. Page Ti -.

After several weeks of training under the guidance of Coach Lisle Blackbourn, during which the boys learned the fundamentals and fine points of the art of wrestling, a tournament was held Axith sixty participants. In the final match, January 23, Edward Huenerbein, heavy weight, won over Anderson, light weight, thereby winning the school championship. In recognition of his victory, Ed was presented a Pur-Gold banner with his name worked on it. As in the past two years, the boys were again divided into classes according to their -weight, so that everyone would have a fair chance. To the winners of each class, blue ribbons were awarded, and to the runnerups, red ribbons. The results of the tournament are as follows : Feather weight class, Rahn defeated Sommer by a fall. Bantam weight class, Switter was thrown by Caldwell. Special middle weight class, Singer, by his powerful scissors grip, pinned Carne ' to the mat. Light weight class, Anderson threw Begel. Welter weight class, Schomann lost by a fall to Zozel. Middle weight, won by Schiller. Light heavy weight class, Ferris beat Rothstein b a time limit. Heavy weight class, Huenerbein pinned Reschlein to the mat. A peep at last year ' s champion wrestlers reveals the fact that Bobbie Schiller and Jack Ferris were also champions of their respective classes then. Now, after three successful tournaments, wrestling is firmh ' rooted in Washington High School, thanks to Coach Blackbourn, and the boys have learned the whip and hows of the art.

Once in the dear, dead days be ond rollcall, there lived a maid whom you may know by the name of lin. She was happy until young Alfred came riding out of the wide, open spaces. Dashing toward her, he stumbled and fell (for her). Immediately they went to a soda-jerker ' s jerkery where Al- fred said in a masterful tone (it took onl - ten lessons!), Have a crush on me. Which she did. The next rainy day they were wetted. And now, said Min, You et. You made a hook and caught me, so I ' ll take my little net, and get some yarn, and, what ou bet? I ' ll have a hook rug yet. Editor ' s Note: Insert paragraph about Klin ' s purchase of yarn. Reporter ' s Comment : She doesn ' t; she makes up this yarn. CHAP. I. SOMETHING LOST! One bright, snowy June day, our hero Al and heroine Min were summoned into the presence of the Queen of Sheba and ordered to go find that which Her Majesty hath lost. Minnie begged and pleaded, and Alfred implored and beseeched the Queen to tell them what had disappeared, vanished, etc., into thin air, but to no avail. The Queen thundered, Go! And if ye lose your heads now, be assured ye shall lose them twice over if ye return not with my lost treasure. With these cruel words she sent them flying through space into the outer dust. It was thus that with mud-stained faces and bloodshot eyes Minnie and .-Mlie set out on their weary pil- grimage. Editor: If ' hat itv;j- it the queen lost? Reporter: Her temper. Min ' s grasp. Min ran plump into a stout individual. She scared to apologize, but the unseated king smiled portly fear, I am Clue the First. And I ' m Minnie, ha ha. Editor: You ' re not yetting any place. Reporter: I think I ' m covering lots of ground. CHAP. III. ON THE HEATED TRAIL CHAP. II. CLUE THE FIRST While strolling along that deep, dark, jungle path, Min and AI were frequently amused by such trifles as boa constrictors, lions, and tigers, all easily conquered by Al ' s agility with a bean blower. Emerging into an open area, they were confronted by two ebony slaves, each carrying a palm leaf aloft, who salaamed them to a nearby flivver, and they were soon gliding over a rose-strewn as- phalt pavement, wafted with incense mingled with the aroma of numerous gas stations. The flivver ran up a cocoanut palm at sight of a sacred white elephant adorned with tiny pink rosettes and forget-me-nots. Al and Min were carried on a rickshaw after the disappearing elephant until they reached a castle in Spain. With due ceremony they were ushered into the Oriental splendor of this Chinese palace, before the Counselors Three. When Min asked what Sheba had lost, the wise men smiled sagely and prof- fered her a minute, mischievous monkey, which immediately evaded too Never still hotter! Red Hot! They . No one could imagine Hot! They were so hot! They w had reached the hottest place there such intense heat. Minnie and Al almost a-melted. They were so hot! They toiled; they trod tensely, tremblingly, through thick ter- races to terribly tiny tracks to trace the treasured token. It was unbelievably unbearable. The heat! Would no one relieve them? Would they have to spend an eternity there — in the desert? Editor: IV hy the long sentence vjith the t ' s? Reporter: Just to tease the reader. Page T jjo Hundred Sixte CHAP. IV. THE HOLD-UP As the aeroplane soared along at the measly rate of 200 miles per hour, our party was held up by one stop light after another, until Minnie, who was growing uneasy about being held up theVe in the air, said they ' d never reach their destination at such a snail ' s pace. She held it up to Allie till he hollered, Hold-up, who ' s run- ning this plane, anyhow? The words were no more than out, when the most momentous, super-earthly hold-up occurred. A gentle breeze ripped off the propcllor, and Minnie and Allie both held up a parachute. Thus they were held up by the parachute, held up above the clouds, held up in the trees, and held up by terra rirma. Minnie hoofed it for the nearest farmhouse, but her hose caught on the friendly brambles, and she broke her last hold up. Allie was less fortunate.

Halp!! shouted Al and Min weakly, as they bobbed up out of the ocean ' s depths for the third and last time. Suddenly they spied the familiar figure of Sherlock swimming about in his speed boat. As they ran toward him, he called, Evidently you are in dis- tress, and, seeing their amazed faces, he added, I know that be- cause you ' re all wet. After much society talk, our hero and hero-ess got down to aluminum salt shakers and asked what the queen had lost. Sherlylocks looked wise and exclaimed, Ah yes! Vou mean the .

VL THE TOTEM POLE The eskimo guide drove the dog train along the icy trail at such a speed that our hero and heroette had much difficulty in cling- ing to the telephone pole which served as their sled. Suddenly the dogs spied a wild cat up a banana tree, and refused to go any farther. They were then within ninety-five miles of the Totem Pole, so the guide urged them to call him if they didn ' t need him. Ally set manfully forward, while Min trailed twenty feet ahead of him. In less than two minutes they were at the foot of the towering statue. Ally tapped playfully on the base of the pole. Without warn- ing, a huge secret door slid quietly and noisily on its rusty hinges, before Hero and Ette gazed on a scene before them they had never seen before. A long tapering white finger beckoned them to enter in within inside. They accepted and xSMii f f alas for Min and Al! Why didn ' t the guide tote ' em, pole and all?

It is like this way: Al ' s granny, a peroxide blonde of fifty-five who looked like sixteen (out of her eyes, of course) used to knit. That was when her hair was gray. Now she looks like Texas Guinan and is kept in circulation at the Eagles ' (million-dollar) ballroom, doing the varsity drag.

Under Fools in Drama somewhere in Ritzenthaler ' s Encyclopedia (no foolin ' ) you will find something (probably that old finger nail file you used as a bookmark) con- cerning various types of fools such as clowns; Vices (gambling and drunkenness); jesters (expressive motions or actions as of the hands in speaking — gleaned from Eibl ' s Unabridged Dictionary, page one thousand nine hundred and twenty-eight, the 3 ' ear when some of Washington ' s illustrious illuminators such as Bob Burns, Richard Hintz, and Howard Niesler abandoned school for the cold, cruel world) ; and fools in drama.
