Andrew Pural in his high school years combined successfully: leadership, athletics, and scholarship. A threefsport man in athletics, he won in track, basketball, and football. He iinished his career in football by placing on the allfcity team as fullback. Uniting a good scholastic standing and a brilliant athletic career, 'lAndy deserves special credit for the service done for West. His unhurried movements and speech were outward signs of his levelfheaded selffreliance which have made him an excellent leader. Andy throughout the year displayed discerning judgment in selecting his aids and managing his tasks. FEBRUARY CLASS Mr. Shong characteriied the February Senior Class as Mthe quiet class. No loud squabbles or disagreements marred the smooth, efficient manner in which they organized and ran their meetings. This same orderly spirit prevailed in the work of all the committees despite the fact that they had to handle the affairs of the largest February class ever graduated at West. To control the activities of the class, the February Seniors elected Andrew Pural, president, Eugene Heubner, vicefpresidentg Ethel Baumann, secretary, and, Lucille Wasicek, treasurer. Undoubtedly the businesslike procedure of the class was due to the election of capable ofhcers. James Kuhn was ranked as highest in the class. High honor is always a brilliant achievement, but james' achievement has even more value than usual, for he surf mounted a barrier of ill health, which had necessitated a temporary withdrawal from school. Lucille Turtenwald received second honors, and Charlotte Baird came next with third honors. Graduation at West Division has always been an impressive and beautiful ceref mony. It is an experience that graduating seniors never forget. Even the pref lude to graduation is full of tense excitement. Two weeks before this February graduation, nervous seniors were too excited to pay much attention to their studies. Rehearsals, clothes, and last minute business caused distractions in the classrooms. On the evening of the second of February, the new, beautiful auditorium of the Girls' Vocational School was being rapidly filled with mothers, fathers, and relatives, soon leaving empty only the white ribboned rows for the graduates. An expectant silence settled as the orchestra started L'Pomp and Circumstancef' and then the slow, silent parade of the seemingly calm seniors began. Selections were faultlessly given by the orchestra, the A Capella chorus, and the girls' sextette, as the program progressed. Rabbi Baron, as the principal speaker, spoke pleasingly and well on The Function of Knowledge. Andrew Pural, class president, presented the class gift, a donation for the enlargement of the trophy case. The reading of the class honors by Mr. Shong followed, A growing atmosphere of expectation was apparent in the audience, but finally Mr. Weihe stood up to read the class roll. As each Senior walked across the decorated stage and took his diploma from Dr. Theisen, his high school days ended.

These, two words describe him so aptly that they seem the outstanding feature of his personality. Whether presiding over algroup bf' clamoring Seniors or playing in a fast moving has' ketball game, the same composed demeanor and swift, sure actions characterize our Tony, His assistant editorship of the Annual, his ofhcial positions in the Athena debating society, and his memberships in, the local and national honor societies ar-e all further evidences of the great regard in which he is held and the Hne work and high rating maintained by him in his high,school career. All fine qualities of character are seldom found in '-any one individual, but Tom has his share and more of the attributes that place him-at the head of his class. JUNE CLASS Q The June Senior Class of 1933 was the largest graduating class in the history of West Division. At an early meeting, the class elected Tom Chloupek for president. Emil Siegesmund was chosen vicefpresident, Evelyn Moore, secretary, Donald Mar- tin, treasurerg and Tom Mc Hugh, sergeantfatfarms. Hot and hectic were the Senior meetings that followed election. Perhaps the most hotly debated of the meetings was the occasion on which the Seniors voted to wear semifformals and white flannels at graduation. With two hundred Seniors clamoring to speak, groups railroading motions, and sofcalled parliamentarians getting themselves and everybody else in a legal tangle, the meeting looked like a madhouse. Caps and gowns, however, were voted down and no lives lost. Among its numerous activities,'the Senior Class presented the Senior Play, k'Mrs. BumpsteadfLeigh , under the auspices of Sock and Buskin. Only Seniors were eligible for the cast. The production was quite successful, and the treasury was well compensated. The Senior reception, the only social function held by the Seniors, was held the week before graduation when all gathered for a last farewell to friends and school. High honors for four years of scholastic standing went to Matthew Rodermund who climbed to the head of his class in his sophomore year and has remained there. Matthew also received the Paeschke Medal for achieving such high honors. Second honors went to Paul Miller, and third honors went to Herbert Simon. Most of the work done by the class was done through the recommendation of committees appointed by the president. Paul Miller handled the commencement program. Charles Schumacher, as head of the printing committee, took care of announcements and tickets. Hazel Zanzig arranged for the commencement speaker. June Wollensak headed the gift committee, and Phyllis Heitman managed the social affairs. Thus the work was left in a few competent hands, as it would have been impossible for the class as a whole to handle the affairs. Mr. Weihe helped the committees in completing their work. . The class of '53 will always be rcmembered at West Division for its great number of athletes, excellent scholars, and efficient executives.

Q ,QV wg TCTVITES HERBERT KOLLOGE CECILE TRAEGER ROBERT GATES ARNETT BARKSDALE JUNIGR CLASS Peers of the Undergraduates Members of the 1933 Junior Class have, with great enthusiasm, formed a fine organization. Their first meeting of the year was held on the Hrst of March, at which time the nominaf tion and election of oiiicers took place. Certain wellfliked members were nominated and voted upon by fellow members, who considered the capability of the nominees. The oihf cers selected were: Herbert Kolloge, class president, Robert Gates, vicefpresident, Cecile Traeger, secretary, Arnett Barksdale, treasurer, and Robert Emerson, sergeant at arms. Miss Johnson as advisor for the Junior Class helped greatly in the organization of the class, during the time preceding the election and continued to aid the class in every possible manner. . junior classes are most enthusiastic about the selection of the class rings or pins. This year's group allowed each individual his choice of rings, pins, or lockets. All the jewelry had black onyx set in gold. There were two types of rings, The boys' rings were large with a deep gold setting, the girls' rings were smaller, and had a claintier setting to appeal more to feminine taste. There was a special committee which was appointed for the purpose of making arrangements in regard to the jewelry. The members of the committee were: Venus Moore, Eleanor Karass, and Don Patterson. Their selections seemed to sat' isfy the other members of the Junior class very well. The committee received the jewelry and offers of various jewelers and recommended their choice to the class. They also took charge of the orders for rings. The junior Class sponsored one of the gayest social events of the school year, the Junior Prom. With the assistance of Miss Donnelly, the prom committee, consisting of Carl Schmidt, chairman, Raleigh Woolf, Myrel Le Claire, Norman Kraatz, and Amilee White, produced a fitting climax for the Junior Class. ANDREW BECKER TOM CHLOUPEK MICHAEL CHUDY HERBERT SIMON EVERETT DOLL THEDA HAGENAH EUGENE HEUBNER MYRTLE ZIEMER MARIE IAGODITSCH JACK KELLNER STUDENT The roll call of the Student Council is the blue book of the West Division student body. During a meeting, students that have long been known as directors of student affairs, clubs, and athletics are seen on every side, for the council has the most out' standing membership of any organization in school. Every member is either a president of a school club, a captain of an athletic team, or a representative of a class. These stu' dents form a deliberative body organized to suggest means of improving West Division. As each member is the head of one type of organization and consequently has knowledge of the needs of that activity and its members, a complete survey of improvements desired by the students themselves can be obtained. Thus, the will of the students can be felt and acted upon. CHARLES SCHUMACHER ALLEN LECHNER HELEN MARKS PAUL MILLER EMIL SIEGESMUND FREDERICK OLSON ANDREW PURAL MATTHEW RODERMUND GEORGE ROTH JUNE WOLLENSAK COUNCIL In order to carry out its purpose, the affairs of the Council necessarily covered a large and varied field. The group arranged the meetings of various organizations of the school to avoid conflicts. In carrying out its advisement plan, one of its most notable achieve' ments, many outside speakers were invited to give vocational talks. The council planned the programs given during advisee conferences and provided programs for various holidays of the year. Enlargement of the trophy case was one of the vital questions of this year. Meetings were held in the cafeteria before the regular session of school began. Herbert Simon presided over the meetings, and Mr. McCrory, faculty advisor, whose life advisef ment work has been extensive, gave unlimited help and time to the Council. Tom Chloupek Emil Siegesmund Jeanne Arnold Charles Schumacher CCDMET As the school year of 193263 drew to a close, material for the Comet Annual was slowly collecting in the files of the annual oflice, This sluggish stream of material seemed barely to disturb the calmness of the oflice or the regular course of the staff, but, as time passed, the tempo of activity imperceptibly increased. Faster and faster went on the work until in the last two weeks a height of feverish activity was reached. Writefups and pictures rapidly poured into the now active, hustling office, as the last minute drive was being ended. The push ended with the Comet Annual finished and gone to press, and, as if nothing had happened, the annual oflice was once more calm. In order to keep in step with changing times, the Annual had to be refashioned. Editor, Charles Schumacher, took the responsif bility of changing the forms. The changes he produced after much research and planning show that he had the power to combine the old and the new acceptably. Not only had Charles the im' agination and initiative to plan a new book, but he had also the leadership, drive, and sense of organization necessary to handle the laborious task of making an annual. Mildred Abbctmeyel. Dorothea Schaefer Linton Kuchler Donald Martin ANNUAL The annual staff this year was unusually small, consisting of a few department heads and a few helpers. The assistant editor, Tom Chloupek, aided in the executive work and cofop' erated in the writing of the literary section. An active participant in sports, Emil Siegesmund, handled the sports section, thus assuring a sound review of the sports year. Jeanne Arnold, literary editor, was in charge of the literary section. Dorothea Schaefer, assistant business manager and oflice secretary, had the most thankless position on the staff, yet her help was indispensable and invaluable. Linton Kuchler, photographer, was the boy who filled the halls with flashlight smoke during the year. As head of the business department, Donald Martin made up the advertising section of the book. On such a large project as the annual the advice of an experif enced person is of great benefit. The two faculty advisors on the annual staff have done years of annual work, and their advice was always sound and benehcial. Miss Abbetmeyer, literary advisor, helped the editor in the planning of the new features of the book, and many of her ideas are embodied in the book. The business advisor, Mr. jordan, who managed the financing of the annual, Howard Jordan suffered headaches as a result of hard times and expense sheets. W .r li . Iolin Bennett Mattliew Rodermund CGMET Gale Kello gg The llirror of School Life The Comet Newspaper staff has always seemed the most eihcient and active organizaf tion in the school. Perhaps to the subscriber receiving his paper with clocklike regularity there is no apparent effort in the publishing of a newspaper, but the Cornet office tells an' other story. The oflice is in confusion with reporters hurrying in and out, desks littered with papers, voices stridently raised, and typewriters clacking. Yet out of this turmoil of sound and motion comes a newspaper. It seems all disorder, but underneath this disorder, the pulsing of an organization, directing and guiding with a firm control, can be felt. Under the direction of this power, an unsezn staff of reporters is spread throughout the school, reaching greedily for the news that mikes up the paper. Late in the spring of 1932, West Division was full of tense excite' ment, for the school was in the midst of the most hotly fought con' test of the year, the annual election of the coming year's editor of The Comet newspaper. Out of a hotbed of hectic oratory and intrigue emerged the victorious figure of Gale Kellogg. As editor of the 1932453 Comet, he has fulfilled the faith of the students in his ability by long hours of work in the office and at the printer's. He composed all editions and wrote all heads and editorials, 1 Jane Cloud Madeline Leu Robert Hafenbrack NEWSPAPER Grace O'Brien Seated at a large desk in the front of the office was Grace O'Brien, business manager. Grace fulfilled her position capably, running the business affairs smoothly and efHciently. The sports editor, Matthew Rodermund, controlled the sports page, writing most of the stories, all of the heads, and planning the whole page. This year's sport page probably was the best in the city. John Bennett, managing editor, was in charge of the news department and gave assignments to the reporters. With the aid of other members of the staff, he put on the best advertising stunts of the year. His parodies of popular radio programs were the talk of the school when given over the broadcasting system. Much of the finished effect of the Comet is due to the work of its faculty advisor, Miss Cloud. She helped everybody from the editor down to the reporters, working at all times to smooth off any rough edges. Mr. Carlson, business advisor, as a hardfheaded business man was the strong character of the organization. Sad was the fate of a nonfpaying subscriber in the hands of Mr, Carlson. Miss Lange, Miss De Wolfe, and Miss Whitaker as advisors and prooffreaders were extremely helpful in the production of a correct newspaper. George Carlson ATI-IEIXIA Fluency and Power of Speech Athenians will leave West this year very well versed in major current problems, together with a valuable training in parliamentary law and public speaking. The entire second semester was devoted largely to debates and to plays in allegorical forms, featuring our pres' ent economic system and civilization during the Machine Age. A moving picture, The Machine Age, presenting a view of modern factories and modern machinery gave Athen' ians an opportunity to glimpse behind these scenes and to note modern progress. Some topics of debate were: Government Ownership of Railroads, Carrying out the plan of the Technocrats, and Capitalism vs. The People. A few open forum debates gave all an opportunity to voice varied opinions. The enterfsociety debate between Athena N and Hesperia on Disarmament, proved to ' be a very interesting one, with the keen but friendly and traditional rivalry among the members of each club still apparent. A close decision was given to Hesperia. A satire entitled Happy the Home Where Books are Found and various playlets and mock trials under the direction of the ad- visors, Misses Nelson, Owen, Duden, and von Briesen, were given throughout the semester. Meetings of the Hrst semester were presided over by Herbert Simon. George Johnston was elected president the second semester. I-IESPEIQIA Develops Personality and Poise Outside the clubroom, cheery farevvells, hollowly refecho, and last departing feet clatter on the cement floor awakening the strange, ghostly silence of the deserted hall, but inside, the debate of Hesperia is in full swing. Two of the debaters busily whisper back and forth. Other debators with wrinkled brows look into the distance. Occasionally one of the debaters scribbles down a note. Another just sits and looks into the distance. A perspiring freshman, nervously lingering his notes, concludes his speech with a shaking voice, amid the applause of a smiling audience. Then an old experienced debater takes the floor and develops his case smoothly and fluently. Hesperia strives to develop in the students the ability to talk easily and well and to think logically and accurately. To help carry out this purpose, the club works on several plays in addition to the debates. The debates also serve to keep the students abreast with current topics of the day. In order to incite active participation in the club, at the end of each semester Hesperia gives honors and letters to members who have been important in club affairs, An' drew Becker presided the first semester, and Charles Koerble, the second. Miss Mowry, Mrs, Pulver, Miss Nielsen, and Miss Howe, faculty advisors, took charge of the debating teams. AND BUSKIIXI The Lighted Stage Roman comedians wore a light shoe called a sock. A buskin was a boot worn by the Roman tragedian. Thus, we have Sock and Buskin, a club dramatizing tragedies and comedies. As the presentation of a play demands hours of practice and work, members of Sock and Buskin form a busy group. The members seem to receive genuine pleasure from all this work. The fascination of acquiring new accents and new personalities, the foolery of rehearsals, the thrill of presentation, and the limelight of renown outweigh the labour done. A capable membership is insured by tryouts, given every year, testing the dram' atic abilities of the applicants. As the sole dramatic club at West, Sock and Buskin presented several large prof grams. For its annual Christmas play, the club presented The Boy Who Found the King. The organization sponsored the Senior Play, Mrs, Bump' steadfLeigh, also, At meetings, an amusing array of short plays, pantof mimes, and imitations were produced by the members, always making a diff ferent and entertaining program. Miss Stevenson and Mr. Warner, faculty ad- visors, have done beautiful work in coaching. A large portion of the smoothness and attraction of the plays of the club is due to their work. LATIN CLUB Scieniia Vitae Rommzae l The old colorful Roman days are revived and flourishing again in the meetings of the Latin Club, which are held four times a year at West Division. Ancient customs and traditions stand out in sharp contrast with those of today- Lo Saturnaliaf' a play given in Latin, ushf ered in the Saturnalia, the great Roman festival when lords and slaves were one. The revelers showed mighty prowess in the k'Olympic Games . A Roman election with the tribes voting in the sheep fold, a talk on the Greek and Roman theater, and two plays giving a picture of life in Caesar's day, made the Latin Clulfs program for this year unusual and diverting. The climax of the year for the club was the giving of honor awards for the best sight translation in Vergil, Cicero, and Caesar. Gale Kellogg and Matthew Rodermund tied for the Vergil awardg Gale Kellogg and Ruth Wiese won the two Cicero awardsg and Violet Anderf son, the first honor in Caesar. Madeline Leu received honorable mention in Vergil and Fred Olson, Paul Miller, Alice Hanson, and Lucille Lesch, in Cicero. The consuls this year were Fred Olson and Howard Bell. Miss Gardner and Miss Davis directed the club's activities. NCRIQIS Think for Yourself Norris Club has the reputation for presenting ideas and plans which materially affect the school life and school regulations. That reputation is based upon the independent, conf structive thinking of boys actively concerned with their surrounding conditions. During the year projects are mapped, and current topics and school life are discussed. Every mem- ber is vitally interested in the meetings, for th: members themselves plan the type of work to be discussed. The comfortable room at G. A. C. with its easy chairs arranged in an intimate semilcircle is conducive to ready conversation, wit, and ideas. Heated discussions often occur, and speakers are then invited to give the case of each side of the question. Different forms of government includf ing Capitalism, Socialism, Communism, and Fasciscism were discussed. A really exceptional group of speakers, among whom were Angelo Seramina, Italian Consul, and Mr. Metcalfe, Socialist Can' didate for governor, spoke. Also, the club gave a banquet to welcome incoming Freshmen and to show them the possif bilities of school life, through speeches given by representatives of each school activity. School problems were discussed the second semester. joint activities with Welles completed the year's work. Matthew Rodermund and Donald Canar presided the first and second semesters, respectively. WELLES Face Life Squarely A typical Welles meeting of a late Tuesday afternoon is one of the most delightfully companionable gatherings imaginable. Along about 3:45 or 4:00 o'clock all the Welles girls have migrated in noisy groups of threes and fours to G. A. C. After chatting for a few moments in the cloakroom, the girls gather in the auditorium. As President Myrtle Ziemer starts off the meeting, the stirring words of the Girl Reserve Creed roll through the hall, or perhaps the sound of singing voices fills the room with joyous sounds. Then everybody joins in a discussion on some topic of general interest and concern to every high school girl. The same contagiously wholesome spirit that permeates the Welles meetings characterizes every activity the club prof motes. Each year the Norris fellows join the girls in sponsoring a dance and a rollerfskating party. Giving baskets of food and packs of toys and clothing to needy families at Christmas is still another joint activity. Each month a supper is given at the Y. W. C. A. for all the Girl Reserve units in the city. Under the helpful guidance of Miss Thomas and Miss 'Reilly, Welles Club has come to symbolize good fel' lovvship and fine ideals. .. , , it , , SCIENCE CLUB Probing the Unknown Chiefly interested in the promotion of scientific interest and knowledge, Science Club car ried on its work this year, with Miss Harmon acting as advisor. On Monday afternoons, in the physics lecture room, where most of the meetings were held, the club was entertained by various lectures, Under the leadership of George Roth and Herbert Simon, presidents of both semesters, respectively, a system of lectures was organized whereby students, teachers, and outsiders gave talks. At one meeting, Professor Martin of the University of Wisconsin Extension Division delighted the club with his talk on Liquid Air, while at another time Merle Duesing lectured on 'Prehistoric Plants and Animals. Not all meetings consisted of scientific lectures, however, for in fair weather the club went on nature hikes to study and observe nature. With Mr. Fuller of the Public Museum as guide, the members of Science Club went to Big Bend, near Waukesha, where they idenf tihed trees, flowers, and birds, A museum tour was conducted through the fourth floor of the Public Museum also, where the exhibits are prepared. With a special guide, much first hand inforf mation was available regarding the ex' hibits of scientinc interest. l ,. Hn' ' f , ' 1 ' rv'-'-.,.,.f ,.-d,,,.?,J D , - ,:.t.,, 4... A '- ' ' Q --'qu .

M, Mm Though young in years, Camera Club has already made itself an organization of lasting value to the school, One student selected yearly from the club's membership roster is given the position of school photographer. It is he who photographically records all social, athletic, and club activities of the school year for the Annual. On occasion, the newspaper makes use of his everfready camera. George Kneyse occupied this position from September to Febf ruaryg Linton Kuchler, February to june. As Kuchler is a junior, he WUI resume his duties in September. Presidents for this year were: Eugene Huebner, September-February, and Daniel Klaus, Februaryfjune. The purpose of this organization is two' fold: first, to stimulate interest in the science of photography, second, to prof vide the school with the everfavailable services of an experienced photographer, During its existence, the club has sucf cessfully attained these goals. At the December and january meetings, fthe club meets monthlyj, Mr. Joseph Riha, advisor of the club, demonstrated the developing and printing of a plate. Members were shown the fascinating intricacies of amateur motion picture photography by John Bennett at the October and November gatherings, Outside speakers were frequently pref sented, MERRILL CLUB There is an art in having a good time, just as there is an art in dancing Well, in playing an instrument skilfully, or in doing a difhcult task satisfactorily. Merrill Club has given West Division girls a good time since its founding, years and years ago. Jolly get together meetings characterize Merrill. The girls are full of a certain zest and enthusiasm that aids them in planning their social activities to which outsiders are often invited. Durf ing the year, under the direction of june Wollensak, president, the club presented a num' ber of playlets, pantomimes, and sketches. Several mixers were also given under the aus' pices of the club. Perhaps the most memorable of the l dances given was the St, Valentine's W dance to which all Merrill girls were privileged to invite as many boys as they chose. Clever dances and a good orchestra added to the charm of the dance. All talented members were given a chance to display their arts, since Merrill was always on the alert to provide varied entertainment through' out the year, One might say that Merrill is the club that specialized in developing pleasing personalities and lasting friendships, under the guidance of the faculty advisors, Miss Case, Miss Weber, Miss Peters, and Miss Hannon. I-IQUSEI-ICLD ARTS The Way to a fllarfx Heart In September, still eager for outside recreation, H. A. C. members hiked to Washington Park for an outdoor picnic. This was the beginning of a series of wellfplanned events. The two sponsors of the club, Mrs. Mildred Perrigo and Miss Isabel Baldwin, House' hold Arts teachers, joined with the girls in the planning of the monthly meetings, which proved entertaining as well as profitable. Only students enrolled in the Foods or Clothing classes were eligible for membership. The girls who took Clothing and Survey were inf terested in homefmaking and self improvement, while the Foods girls studied the prep' aration, content, and serving of foods. An event of true merit was the Christf mas program for poor children. After staging a most successful bazaar, the club was able to furnish entertainment for the children. In February a grand H, A. C. rally was held for all members in the city to make plans for the conf vention in May. The Mothers' Tea, held in March, helped teachers and mothers to become better acquainted. Later the party gathered in Miss Bald' win's room for tea. The last and perf haps the most outstanding event of the year, the honor banquet, concluded H, A. C's. activities. STAGE CREW Ring up the CIH'fI1i71.' This year's stage crew is the most elhcient that West Division has ever known. Despite the fact that the members are handicapped by the small stage on which they work, they do their work well and can be relied upon in an emergency. The crew is managed by Gerf hard Denninger, who is assisted by Elmer Minkley, Frank Ehlert, and James Church. Their work is entirely voluntary, and their only reward is the experience they receive. This, however, seems sufficient, for they are always on the job, preparing for programs, stage setting for plays, and making themselves useful to all organizations that are in need of stage help. These four boys have many responsi' bilities, and much valuable property is entrusted to their care. Under the dif rection of Mr. Martin, faculty advisor, the crew works early in the morning, during their free periods, and after school until late in the day. Visitors will always find them repairing lights, cleaning the stage, or shifting scenery. A clever arrangement called the light bridge, which makes it possible to ob' tain difficult lighting effects, was erected by the crew, and much other skilful work has been done. The boys enjoy their work and maintain that there is much fun connected with it. 1744-f M -04 .ffjufffr . . Af- ,. ,4.., 4u,,,,, BCCK STCRE .f . Source of Supplies l The book store is operated for the convenience of any one connected with West Division. Teachers as well as students use it daily, All text books and supplies needed for any subject taught in school are obtainable in the book store. At the end of each semester, students can sell their second hand books to the book store for the amount they are worth. They need only secure slips from their teachers to show that the books are no longer needed. Although the book store is operated on a small scale, it resembles a well' established firm because of the businessflike basis on which it is rung , . P M A t r,. f,- i ,. ff' f . IE, This year, four students worked in the book store, namely, Herbert Kingsbury, Herbert Sutter, Myrel Le Claire, and Anton Kulhanek. The latter clerk also acted as bookkeeper. Miss Ada- Par' sons, mathematics teacher, has been the general manager for several years. She engages students who sign applications to work in the book store. Certain qualifications are required, such as good scholastic averages, ambition, honesty, and the ability to do the work eiicif ciently. Miss Lucie Case, another W mathematics teacher, has been treasurer for some time. The book store has be' come an indispensable convenience. l ,, CAFETERIA Counting the Calories f 1 .f 4 I I Every day during each of the three lunch periods two lines of students and teachers move slowly along the counter toward the husy cashier. The deserted cafeteria of the morning hours with its silent rows of chair-piled tables is now filled with the hum of conversation and the constant clink of silver, only silenced by the startling clatter of a fallen tray. Students, turning from the cashier's desk, walk carefully past the crowded tables toward empty places. The wellffilled tables are signs of the popularity of the lowfpriced cafeteria meals, which offer a variety of meats, vegetables, and desserts. Each day the enicient and well man' aged cafeteria helpers prepared a wellf balanced variety of foods. This work was carried on under the supervision of Miss Isabel Baldwin, teacher of the Foods classes. Serving the food at the counters, washing dishes, and helping in the kitchen was done hy student helpers who worked during their free periods. In return for their work, each student was given a thirtyfcent meal each day. Through this cooperation and management, the cafeteria carried on its work. ATHLETIC ASSCDCIATICDIXI West Division's Athletic Association is the life blood of all athletics at West. It is the central organization of athletics, controlling expenditures of all branches of sports. Being supported by a schoolfwide membership makes its program the largest of any organ' ization in school. The membership campaign is a swift, breathftaking affair. With its cars still ringing with the stirring music of the band, the cheering and singing, the thunf dering denunciations of Mr. Campbell, and the appeal of the coaches, the packed assembly is roused to the utmost peak of school spirit. During election, opposing tickets, campaign managing, and school wide advertising, combine to form a hard battle with all the thrills of a regular political election. Having recently been opened to the W girls, membership is now open to the entire student body. The girls are rap' idly entering into all forms of sports, but the boys still pride themselves on retaining football as a purely masculine activity. After each sport has Hnished its season, the Athletic Association pref sents each athlete, who has fulfilled the requirements of the emblem rules, with his W. Jack Kellner, a leader in all sports, was president of the Association. Mr. Rounds, faculty head, guarded the accounts with a zeal that kept expenses down. LIBRARY Shelves of Knowledge The quiet afternoon air is disturbed only by the soft rustling of turning pages. The noise of a passing automobile stirs the air, and then drowsy silence returns. The sun glows softly on the varnished shelves and lights their somber rows of books. Students sit quietly at their tables, absorbed in their studies. The calm of the library induces perfect concentraf tion, and the booklined walls offer knowledge in every branch of study. Thus, the library is an ideal spot for studying. Students with library slips from their teachers are per' mitted to do reference work during free periods. During lunch hours no library slips are required for anyone wishing to read magazines, The library is equipped with books to supplement the regular classwork and many sets of books are provided for text books. The library at West Divif sion is run with the same efficiency and smoothness as any large public library. A careful check is kept upon all books so that none is lost or misplaced. This department is managed by Mrs. Dropf pers, who has spent four years as our librarian. A staff of students aids in the routine work. CADETS Quiet, Please The passing bell rings, and from every room pours a chattering, turbulent stream of students jamming into the narrow halls, each one seemingly oblivious of everyone except himself and his friends. Friendly groups collect here and there, adding more confusion to the already overflowing halls. In order to reduce this congestion as much as possible and to make conditions more bearable, the cadet system is used at West. Responsible stu' dents, who are courteous and Hrm in the enforcement of order are chosen as cadets, Under the direction of Mr, Aker, faculty sponsor, this system has been successfully operating for three years. Every hour eight cadets under the charge of a captain are posted throughf out the building. The cadets are vested with authority to keep students on the move during the passing bells and to maintain silence in the halls during classes. They also keep adventuresome students out of the halls during lunch hours. Every possible assistance is given to students perplexed by many new hall rules. The large red and white badge of the cadets has, through the service of its wearer, come to command respect and instant obedience. l-ICNGI2 SOCIETY As time drew near for graduation, the faculty members met in order to elect the Na' tional Honor Society, one of the highest honors for seniors. The teachers gathered material on all prominent seniors and got ready to recommend the choice members of the list, Then in this manner twentyffive seniors from the June Class were judged by the faculty to have led in character, leadership, scholarship, and service during their four year course. At this April faculty meeting, the following June graduating seniors were elected to the Na' tional Honor Society: John Bennett, Tom Chloupek, Michael Chudy, john Cook, Lucille Dhein, Ethel Forman, Dolores Hanson, Phyllis Heitman, Arabell Immel, Margaret Jax, Helen Luell, Marion Menten, Paul Miller, Matthew Rodermund, Dorothea Schaefer, Charles Schumacher, Elmer Schwandes, Emil Siegesmund, Herbert Simon, Matilda Stupp' nig, Florence Toy, June Wollensak, Lorraine Zachert, Hazel Zanzig, Emma Zwickler. Local Honor Society consisted of: Juniors: Louise Altseiner, Bertha Avis, Matilda Boertlein, Marjorie Bublitz, Alice Busser, Margaret Casey, Roy Christoph, Gertrude Druml, Dorothy Gillette, Gale Kellogg, Audrey Kirchoif, Lorene Lester, Madeline Leu, Regina Nagel, Frederick Olson, Vilas Starr, Eleanor Waskow, Raleigh Woolf, Eva Wright. Sophomores: Violet Anderf son, Lilliam Becher, Alfrieda Christian, joe Ettli, Rita Gibbons, Alice Hanson, Richard Kunath, Lucille Pegis, Robert Radue, Marguerite Roge, Edith Speerbrecher, Aaron Sweed, Ruth Wiese, Anna Zilavy. Freshmen: Helen Marks, Elsie Kohn, Martin Shuler, Bessie Tschudy, Alfred Toy, june Walker. Presentation of the honor society pins forms a very impressive ceremony with the march of the society members down the main aisle to receive their pins from the National Honor Society member, upon the stage. Students on the local honor society for the first time receive a bronze pin. A silver pin is awarded for the second time a student is a member of the local society. If a junior places on the society three years in a row, a gold pin is won. High honors for the June graduf ating class went to Matthew Rodf ermund, with a 94.785 average. Paul Miller was second with a 94.380 average. Third honors went to Herbert Simon, with a 93.794 average. ln the February Class, James Kuhn won first honors, Luf cille Turtenwald, second honors, and Charlotte Baird, third honors. Also, the following five members of the February Class were elected to the National Honor Society: James Kuhn, Lucille Turtenwald, Char' ii lotte Baird, Gunther Heller, and . Irene Druml. PAESCI-IKE MEDAL Highest Attainment The Paeschke Medal is the oldest institution of its kind in Milwaukee. Approximately over a period of fifty years this award has been given to acknowledge good scholarship, character, leadership, and service. A space of fifty years arouses the imagination. The mind jumps out to meet the stories of changing times, tragedies, coincidences which have marked the path of the medal. The award's history started in old Fourth Ward School way back in the '8O's, where the medal was given by Mr. Charles Paeschke, Sr.. and two other business men. Strangely enough, Charles Paeschke, jr., received the last medal given before the disbanding of the school. Charles Paeschke, Jr., died the year after his graduation from West, and Mr. Paeschke revived, at West in 1903, the old grade school award as a memorial to his son. ik- -li ak MATTHEW RODERMUND . . . at the close of four years of high school work, still leads the procession of honor students as he has always done in the past. An excellent student, a hard worker, an enthusiastic sportsman, he will always be liked by his friends and ad- mired and remembered for his courage and fortitude in overcoming the hindrances of life. Matthew entered West Division from Wisconsin Avenue School, an awed but, neverthe- less, ambitious freshman. Encouragement came to him early in his school career when he was elected to represent the freshmen class in the Student Council. He began writing for the newspaper, becoming an excellent journalist. Later, he disregarded requests to run for editorship only because he wished to keep his scholastic average as high as possible. In his third year he became president of the Norris Club, an organization for boys, and in the meantime had been serving as Sports Editor on the Comet. His fine qualities were evident to the faculty who recognized him by presenting him with the Harvard Book in his junior year. This fine record came under the notice of the Beloit College authorities, who thought him deserving of a fine scholarship, It will be at Beloit College that Matthew will continue his education, and West Division believes he will continue the record he has set here. SENICDI2 PLAY The Senior Play unfolded the amusing career of a patent medicine family crashing the gates of society. Mrs. BumpsteadfLeigh, formerly Della Sayles of Indiana, maneuvered her mother and younger sister into the elite home of the Rawson family where she hoped to marry her sister to Anthony Rawson. Embarrassing situations piled one upon another as the play went on. The feature of the play, however, was the broadly sketched characters. Sue Mallon as Mrs. BumpsteadfLeigh kept the audience constantly chuckling with her deft changes from an affected society lady to a drawling, domineering Hoosier woman. William Lucas as the garrulous, flashy Pete Swallow, tombstone dealer from Della's home town kept the audience roaring with his extravagant words and broad characterizations. The two Rawson sons, played by William Swan and Charles Koerble, with Marion Piechowski formed the love interest of the play. Mr. and Mrs, Rawson were played by El Reischel and Jeanne Arnold. Harold Carey and Jean Stoeckel took the parts of Mr. and Mrs. Leavitt. The roles of maid and butler, upon whose action the plot depended, were played by Phyllis Heitman and Warren Schneider. Virginia Bauer played the part of Mrs. De Salle, the mother of Violet and Mrs. BumpsteadfLeigh. Mr. Warner did an excellent piece of management in the production of the play. The whole play had a professional air. ART GF For many years West Division has been famous for its exceptionally fine music department. The junior and senior orchestras, the A Cappella chorus, the male quartet, and the sextet under Mr. Gola Coffelt, and the junior and senior bands under the supervision of Mr. Earl Rainier, have represented West Division at concerts, plays, and programs of every description. Those who have admired Mr. Rainier in the leader's stand, or those who have joined with Mr. Colfelt in community singing can realize who is responsible for this unusual success. What student has not felt proud of West Division's band, parading down the gridiron, proudly wearing crimson and white, and led by a dancing drumfmajor in a tall plumed hat? Who has not been stirred by the martial strains of 'kForward, West Side? The West Side band has added many laurels to its crown during the past few years. In city and state wide , contests, it received more first places for group and individual skill in playing than any other school in ' Milwaukee, In January the band presented a concert to the public in the Main Assembly, as a climax to their semester's work. The musicians representing West Division at the sixth Biennial Music Festival, held at the Auditorium in May, far outnumbered those from the other schools and also held the more important positions. The participants of this Festival were commended for their good work by Mr. Smith, the city Music director, The orchestra, like the band, is made up of two groups, the junior divisions and the senior divisions. MUSIC The senior orchestra is a very advanced division. lt has played the most difficult Shubert and Beethoven symphony selections in a masterful fashion, and has many times held its audience in awe by its interpretation of intricate music. The orchestra is an important The A Cappella chorus is one of the finest groups of singers in the city. The singing is taught in two classes, and both groups have done remarkably well. This chorus was the entire enf semble, which presented the Mikado, an opperetta given on the West Division stage The Christmas Play was accompanied by chorals and songs from the A Cappella group. Seventy' two voices from West Division joined together with singers from all other schools at the Music Festival and were well thought of by the director, Mr. Smith. The male quartet, comf posed of William Lucas, Bliss Frye, El Reichel, and Charles Koerble, and the girls' sextet, with Carol Haasl, Alice Saffouri, Dorothy Perlin, Luelf la Thompson, Alice Spitz, and Lu' cille Pegis, always can be relied upon for excellent entertainment. The in' terest shown in music at West Div' ision is ample proof that students place it as an important feature in their education. SENIOR RECEPTION For the third time in the annals of graduating classes, the departing Seniors gave a farewell party at midfyear. This party in the guise of a reception, was given on the evening before graduation, February 1, in West's ballroom, the girls' gym. Formal as the word reception may sound, the dance was, in reality, most informal in its friendly atmosphere and in the congenial conviviality that characterized everybody's attitude, The familiar walls of the gym assumed new proportions under the roving spot lights that played over the dancers from the balcony. Even Mr. Shong remarked, 'klt looks pretty ine - which is high praise from our discerning principal. Sturm's orchestra played beguil- ing modern melodies unceasingly as couples drifted dreamily over the floor. Between dances, Miss Donnelly, social director, assumed new prominence in presiding over the punch bowl, and with James Kuhn, the class valedictorian, in the neighboring alcove, satisfied the thirst of dancers. President Andrew Pural chose an able group of representatives to take charge of the var' ious phases of preparation for the dance. Eugene Huebner was appointed chairman, and other members were: George Kneyse, Lucille Wasicek, and Gladys Harmeyer, attending to the decorations, orchestra, music, tickets, and programs. FQOTBALL I-IGP The close of a successful football season was marked by a celebration of the team's victories at a dance given in the Girls' Gym. The presence of West Divisions' social aspirants gave color to this most interesting occasion with a bright array of new dresses and clothes of all descriptions. The decorations were simple, and the programs, dark footballs on a light background, were plain but artistic. All the football players of the past season were present, monopolized by admirers. Their partners were by no means unnoticed, however, as the happy couples danced past on the crowded gym floor. Kermit Keene's orchestra played all the latest tunes and was wellfreceived by the dancers. Committees for the dance were headed by Michael Chudy, captain of West Divisions 1932 football team and chairman of the dance. Other contributors were El Reischel, Bob Gerlach, Andy Pural, Jimmy Van Horn, Roy Walters, and Jack Little, who had charge of the prof grams and decorations. West Division will always remember the boys who played their last game this year because of their courage and spirit. The Football Hop will be remembered as a particularly happy event in their reminiscences. JUIXIICR DRUM For several weeks Miss Donnelly's room had bzen besieged by groups of talkative Juniors bubbling with ideas for making an unusually striking junior Prom. The outcome of all this preparation was the beautifully decorated gym which greeted the eyes of the arriving couples on the evening of May 6. Couples were wandering in a softly lighted rustic garden, under the shadows of blossoming apple trees. The blossoms gleamed palely down upon the dancers and the pairs seated in the wicker furniture placed in secluded corners. The subtle fragrance of awakening spring seemed to permeate the whole glowing gym. The soft strains of The Midnight Serenadersn enhanced the beautiful atmosphere of the party. Midway through the evening the procession for the grand march was formed. Heading the swing of the grand march were Junior Prom King, Herbcrt Kolloge, and his charming partner, Venus Moore. Following the leading couple came the class officers with their partners. The members of the Prom Committee received the next place of honor. President Herbert Kolloge appointed the following people to stage the Prom: Chairman Carl Schmidt, Eldeen Thomas, Amilee White, Matilda Boertlein, Cecile Traeger, and Ralf eigh Woolf. The success of the 1933 junio: Prom is due to the ingeniousness and labor of the committee and Miss Donnelly. s 1 , . - I 1 C l F Q N 4 V . - --. J-7, A 14 L li' f ' 1 - J MIXERS When students enter the Main Assembly on certain Fridays and see a sign posted in the front of the room reading Mixer Today they seem to visualize the enjoyable time which is in store for them. For anyone who is not at all familiar with its meaning it would be difficult to guess just what is meant by mixers, They are informal dances held in the girls' gym on Friday afternoons from half past three until live o'clock. These mixers are usually held every two or three weeks. Ordinarily large crowds attend them. Some people come to dance, while others come to enjoy the music and watch the dancing. Miss Theo Donnelly is the faculty sponsor for the mixers. The reason these aifairs are called L'mixers is that members from any class in school, who choose to, may attend them. In this way, the freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors meet on the same plane and mix with true, friendly spirit, The music is furnished by the dance orchestra of West Division, Earl Rainier and his Play' boys. Teachers, as well as students, enjoy attending the mixers. After a hard week the mix- ers furnish pleasant diversion for all. fp?-ILETCS FCDOTBALI. In contrast to the elevens developed at West in the last few years, this year's team was light, but behind a scrappy line a group of fast, hardfhitting backs were found. The West Division team ended the season in a triple tie for second place with Lincoln and Washington in the city conference. 1932 Seaxon The team exhibited a great deal of fight in most of their games, but were slow in. getting started. They could usually be counted on to come from behind and Elin. The one dark spot of the season was the severe defeat West received from HSE. , Coaches Smith, Siggelkow, and mf Gerber built up a team, which was i . rated as an unknown quantity in the beginning of the season, but by display' ing a fine brand of football in its first game, the team threatened to be dan' gerous to any team it might play. Throughout the season, this prediction was upheld, as West won game after game in the city conference. Injuries to different men handicapped the team greatly throughout the year. Steuber was kept from several games by a leg injury, Van Horn suffered a head conf cussion, Callahan was unable to play the first few games because of an inf jured hand, and Kellner played several games against the advice of the doctor. Some of these players were able to fill their former positions once more, because Cavanaugh, manager, did such excellent work in putting them in shape. SIGGLEKOW SMITH GERBER SHULTZ - .4 i . LINCCDLIXI The Red and White of West lost to the Blue and Gray of Lincoln, 13 to 12, in a battle dedicating the beautiful, new Rufus King Stadium. The contest offered the many gridiron fans their Hrst opportunity of witnessing the effect of the new rules. As the score might indicate, the teams 'battled on even terms throughout the game. Linco1n's first score came in the second quarter after Lincoln had recovered one of West's many fumbles in West territory. After a series of plays had put the ball on the sixfyard line, Berry fum' 4 bled, but the ball rolled into the end zone, where Captain Cutrufelli recovered the ball for a touchdown. Lincoln's second score was made in the nnal period on a fortyfyard pass from Morgan to Behm. Corcoran then dropfkicked the extra point, which gave Lincoln its victory. West also scored in the second quarf ter on a plunge by Pural from the one' foot line, where the ball had been placed by a pass, a penalty, and an endfrun of twentyffive yards. The second touchdown came in the third quarter on a sweeping endfrun of thirty yards by Kellner. Both tries to convert the extra point were no good. The game was marked with frequent fumbling and much wrangling over inf terpretation of the new rules. CAPTAIN CH UDY WAUNXXATCDSA A fairly large crowd of night owls turned out to see West battle Wauwatosa. The suburban eleven sprang a surprise by holding West, the favorite, to a score' less tie. Despite the fact that a white ball was used and that large footlights il' luminated all parts of the Held, West seemed handicapped, as fumbles were fre' quent occurrences. The West Division team had several chances to score, but lacked the necesf sary amount of punch. In the fourth quarter, after a decided gain by West in an exchange of punts, Kellner recovered a , - V' s a blocked kick on Wauwatosa's fourfyard '- line. West charged the Wauwatosa line four times. When the dust settled, the spectators could see that West had met a stonewall defense and that it was Wauf watosa's ball on their own onefyard line. Henderson then went between his own goal posts to punt. The West Division line charged, and Henderson, finding him' self unable to punt, was forced to run. He squirmed and wriggled his way to the thirtyfyard line. The suburban eleven promptly punted out of danger, and West's chance was gone. The Wauwatosa team also had the ball inside their opponent's fivefyard line on one occasion, but were unable to score, when Kassel, playing rightfend, threw an attempted lateral pass play for a fifteen' yard loss. The remainder of the game consisted of a punting duel between Kellner and Henderson, with the West Division halff back outdistancing his opponent. KELLNER SUUTH The next game of the season was played with South at Borchert Field, the home of the Milwaukee Brewers. This field was used because the City Stadium was being repaired. Although West outplayed their opponents throughout the entire game, they were fortunate in scoring a 6 to O victory. The game was a defensive battle be' tween the two lines from the beginning to the end, although the West line had a slight edge. Rawlins and Callahan engaged in a punting duel, with Callahan gaining a slight advantage for the Red and White. A weak punt by Rawlins in the first quarter was the break which en' abled West to score its touchdown. West gained possession of the ball on South's thirtyfninefyard line, as the first quarter ended. Cn the first play of the second quarf ter, Pural found a hole in the line and went through to the thirtyfonefyard line. A flat pass, Callahan to Walters, put the ball on the twentyffivefyard line. After three linefplays had been stopped cold, Steuber passed to Pural, who caught the ball on the Hvefyard line and went over the goal for the touchdown. Callahan's kick from placement was wide. South's only scoring chance came in the final period, but a fifteenfyard penalty dampened their hopes. Although West played the greater part of the game in South's territory, the West backfield could not pierce the stout South line when the opportunity to score came. PURAL - l f r . ,a..A.... NCDRTH ' -' A ' BARKSDALE West had a close call in its struggle with North, but managed to win,i12 to 6. The game ended with a whirlwind bit of action by Kellner of West. 'V After North had tied the score in the final period following an elongated drive of sixty yards, Kellner was put into the fray. On the first play following the kickoff, Kellner tore off eleven yards to North's fortyfonefyard line. Pural and Kell' ner advanced the ball to the fifteenfyard line in a series of four plays. A penalty set the Vx7estfsiders back, but a pass, Pural to Kellner, placed the ball in position for the scoring play. Kellner then chose to skirt his own left flank for the score. West scored their first touchdown in the first quarter after North's punt had been blocked by Kallas and recovered by Thiede on North's sevenfyard line. Steuf ber charged the line three times to the onefyard line, and Pural went over. North's touchdown in the final period was the result of a sustained drive down the field. Two first downs, a Hfteenfyard penalty, and a pass, Pridemore to Gold' man, brought the ball to West's seven' teenfyard line. Maltsch and Pridemore carried the ball to the oneffoot line on three plays, Pridemore then took the ball over. The game was a thriller, and the out' come remaining doubtful until the gun ended the game. West was handicapped by an injury to Kellner that kept him from playing most of the game. VAN HORN GERLACH BAY VIEW West Division spoiled Bay View's homecoming by defeating the scrappy Bay View team, 20 to 12. The game was played before a small but enthusiastic home' coming crowd, and was filled with many a thrill. West's first score came in the second quarter after a blocked kick by Kolloge had given West the ball on Bay View's onefyard line. Pural plunged over for the touchdown and converted the extra point by plunging. West's second score came in the third quarter after West recovered a blocked Bay View punt in Bay View territory. Kellner and Pural carried the ball to the onefyard line on a series of endfruns and linefplunges. Pural then went over for the touchdown, and Kell' ner placefkicked the extra point. Kolloge continued his fine, defensive play by blocking another punt in the fourth quarf ter. West recovered the ball on the Bay's seventeenfyard line. Kellner took the ball on two sweeping endfruns to the onefyard line. Pural plunged for the touchdown. In the third quarter, Bay View com' pleted a pass to the thirtyfyard line. Wozny then passed to Milligan, who caught the ball in the end zone for a touch' down. In the final period, two long passes by Wozny to Kantuck and Kruse put the ball on the sixfyard line, and Hoffman carried the ball over. The game ended with the ball in Bay View's possession, but the Bays were in no position to score. STEUBER ',,4'0'v3fA TEC!-I West celebrated its homecoming by defeating Tech 12 to O, before an exceeding' ly large crowd of spectators. The fans attending the game were treated to many a thrill as West twice ran long distances for touchdowns, but both plays were ref called and penalties inflicted. The first of these was a fiftyfive yard run by Kellner on the Hrst play following the kickoff. The play was recalled, however, and an off' side penalty imposed. All the scoring was done by West in the second quarter. West's Hrst score came after two first downs had brought the ball to the Tech flfteenfyard line. Kell' ner then hit tackle for two yards, and Pural went through center to the nine' yard line. From here, Kellner circled end for a touchdown. Tech then launched an aerial attack, which took the ball from their own twenf tyfeightfyard line to West's twentyffivef yard line. McGroarty passed to Suhm who missed a perfect pass in the end zone. West took the ball on the twentyfyard line. On the very first play, Pural cut loose through center and ran seventyfnine yards to the Tech onefyard line, where he was brought down from behind. Kell' ner then took the ball over the goal line. This ended the scoring for the day, although Kellner intercepted a pass and ran ninetyffive yards. The play was brought back, however, as the ofhcials ruled he had stepped out of bounds. The gun soon sounded, ending the final period. 9 CALLAHAN FARNER McHUGH ff' WEST MILWAUKEE For the second time in the season, West, the favorite, was held to a scoreless tie by a suburban eleven, The game was played at West Milwaukee before a very small crowd. The low attendance was due to the unusually cold weather. Both teams threatened once, but neither was able to score the points which would win the game. Grafenauer, West Milwaukee's plunging fullback, scored most of the yardage for West Milwaukee, and on one occasion climaxed a sixty' yard march down the field by actually crossing the goal line on a twentyfyard dash. The play was recalled, however, as the officials ruled that the fullback's knee touched the ground in the course of the run. West's only scoring chance came in the middle of the second quarter. A pass, Kellner to Callahan, was good for fifteen yards around end. Another pass, Kellner to Van Horn, put the ball on the Suburf banites' tenfyard line, and a touchdown loomed for the Red and White. The West Milwaukee team stiffened at this point, however, and took the ball on downs. The game was played on a very slip' pery field. The West Division team seemed stunned by the stand of the sub' urban eleven and was outplayed during most of the game. West Divisiorfs over' confidence proved its downfall. MILLER EAST If West had been victorious in this game with East, the two teams would have shared the city conference championship. When the gun sounded the end of the game, however, East was found to have corraled the championship by a victory of 59 to 0. The defeat was the most decisive tallied by a conference team in many years. Captain Eddie jankowski scored five of the nine touchdowns made by East. Two of his touchdowns were made on brilliant runs through the West Division team. In the first period he intercepted a hostile pass and returned it thirty yards for a touchdown. In the second quarter he broke away inside right tackle for fortyfthree yards and another score. Eddie Misiak scored two touchdowns, and Richard Allen and Ted Priechun each scored one. Walter Dembowski converted five out of nine attempts for the extra point. West carried the ball into East terrif tory only once. That was in the fourth quarter when East had most of its second string men in the game. A fumble on the forty-yard line ended this advance, and West's hope of scoring went glimmering. The fast charge of the East line pref vented West's backs from even threaten' ing to score. Kellner, West's star half' back, played the game with a bad right , leg, which prevented his getting olf his usual long punts and his sweeping end runs. VVALTERS HAYES '33 PROSPECTS The outlook for West's SS football team is very uncertain at this time. Although the team loses several outstanding and prominent men, capable substitutes are ex' pected to fill their places. The returning lettermen include: Captain Kolloge, Barksdale, Kallas, and Van Horn. Among the promising recruits who will be working for positions are: Zorn and Bruins. Zorn, a substitute on last year's team, is capable of playing either a line position, or fullback. He is a powerful offensive player, and, if given any kind of break, will develop into a good man, Bruins was the mainstay on the B squad and is a backfield man. SCHEDULE West 12 ...,........

West opened the scoring and held an 8 to 5 lead as the first quarter ended. Poor ball handling and many errors, caused by lack of practice over the Christmas holidays, were responsible for West Division's passing up one opporf tunity after another. The score at the half was 12 to 8 in favor of West. The two teams played on equal terms in the third quarter, but in the fourth period East tied the score. Although West held the lead for a short time again, the East Siders led by a single point as the gun sounded. Schmidt led East's cagers with 13 points, while Kellner was high man for West with 7 points.

Britton was high point scorer for Lincoln with 12 points, while Siegesf mund led the West Siders with 10 points. West showed a complete change in form from the game played the week before. The players seemed handicapped by the large size of the floor and were unable to adjust themselves in time to pref vent defeat. Bay View 2 Q 1 West Division ended the 19324933 city conference basketball season in a tie for second place with Washington by de' feating Bay View 28 to 25, in a thrill' ing game. Two overtime periods were necessary before the winner was deter' mined. Bay View opened the game with a rush, and through their superior speed and greater height led the West Siders 14 to 12 as the Hrst half ended. The scoring was close throughout the game, and West seemed unable to gain a lead which would bring them victory. With Bay View leading 25' to 24, Siegesmund was fouled, and at the same time the shot was fired, sounding the end of the game. Siegesmund made the second of two free throws, sending the game into overtime periods. There was no score in the first of these, but Peters made a BARKSDALE basket and Chloupek a free throw in the second, to give West the victory. The game was protested on the grounds that a Hve minute rest was not given between the overtime periods, but nothing resulted from this. Custer West moved into undisputed second place in the city conference by taking an uninteresting game from Custer, 23 to 13. The game was a slowly played, drab affair with West ahead except for the first minutes of play. After Custer had taken the lead as the game started, West slowly over' came their rivals and assumed the lead, which they never relinquished. Although West's offense scored only 12 points in the first half, their defense limited Cusf ter to 3 points and gave West a lead to work. The second half proved to be a repef tition of the first except that Custer held its own. The passing was inaccuf rate, the shooting poor, the ballfhandling ragged, and the defense loose. As the game neared the end, Custer tried des' perately to win its first game but was thwarted by West's defense. The game ended with Custer's taking wild shots at the basket, and playing against West's reserves. Kellner, Chloupek, and Siegesmund led the scoring with 6 points each. Def spite the showing it made, the team took only second place. WORTLEY TRACK 1932 Season Seven letterfmen from the squad of 1931 answered the call of Coach Smith early in the month of February, The returning men Were: Captain Schumacher, sprinter: Kellner, hurdler and highfjumperg Feichtinger, sprinter and quarter' milerg Mashek, hurdlerg Stockey, halffmilerg Giove, milerg and Fuchs, weight man. With these seven veterans forming a nucleus, Coaches Smith and Sig' gelkow built up the team that later won the City and State championships and enjoyed an undefeated season. It was necessary to add several men to this group in order to give the team the balance needed to be champions.The men who proved most reliable of the new runners were: Franks, a miler, who came from another school, George' son, who became one of the strongest A highfhurdlers in the Stateg Horn, a half' miler, and Pural, hurdler and high' jumper. Captain Schumacher received a leg injury at the beginning of the season which made it impossible for him to run at any time during the year. This, how' ever, was the only injury that kept a runner out of active competition. The exceptional ability of Caotainfelect Kell' ner made up for the loss caused by Schumacher's absence. Kellner won three first places in every meet he en' tered except the City meet, where he failed to win the high jump but did take second. This, of course, gave him high score honors. SCHUMACHER COACH SMITH FEICHTINGER GATES HAUPMAN PO RATH The West Division team won ten meets during the season, two of which were with college freshmen, and among which were the City and State meets and the Whitewater championship. At the start of the season,West Division's team aimed at the State Championship. It not only attained this honor but also won every other meet on its schedule dur' ing the entire year. At the beginning of the season it held several practice meets at the Marquette gym, one with the Marquette Freshmen and one with Washington. West won both meets. In the contest against the freshmen, which was the closest of the year, several new men came into prominence by their exceptional perform' ances. Feichtinger, a senior who had taken second place the previous year in the city meet, started on a perfect record of hrst places. Georgeson, a fair hurdler the year before, began running in excellent time at this meet. The freshmen were final' ly defeated, but only by a small margin. Washington, however, was not as strong competition, and the score of the meet was 39M to ZBM. Here again, West looked like a championship team. Early in the outdoor season, the team went to Appleton, Wisconsin, to compete against the Lawrence College freshmen. West won eight first places to two for the freshmen. Kellner won first places in the 100fyard dash, the 22Ofyard low hurdles, and the high jump. The strong wind made it impossible for the high hurdles to be run and even the other events were somewhat hampered by it. However, when the score was added, the result was 5 6 for West to 34 for the freshmen. COACH SIGGELKOW KELLNER HORN STOCKEY GEORGESON West Division's next victory was over Boys' Tech. The Westfside stars cap' 'cured 9 out of 12 events and scored a slam in the high hurdles. Considering the fact that it was the first official meet of the season and that the weather was cold, the times made in several events were excellent. The best performance of the meet was when Jack Kellner, captainfelect for the SS team, cleared the bar at 6 ft. M4 inch in the high jump. With the exception of the broad jump, West won all the field events. Feichtinger and Kellner netted ZZVZ points, starting the official season with two Hrst places to their credit. The score was 69 to 39 in favor of West. West Division again met Washington in a dual meet on the Washington track. In this meet Kellner scored 18 points by winning first in the high and low hurdles and the high jump, and a second in the 100fyard dash. The distance men showed up well, and several good times were recorded. Feichtinger won the 44Of yard dash in 5 2.8 seconds, and Franks won the mile in 4 minutes and 44 seconds. Finally, after winning the Whitewater, State, and City championships, West Di' vision finished an undefeated season. Kell' ner and Feichtinger also finished undef feated seasons. Kellner was not bettered once during the year in either the high or low hurdles, and in the State meet he broke the low hurdle record and tied the record in the highs. Feichtinger won every race he ran in the 440fyard dash. BARKSDALE KELLNER SCHUMACHER FARN ER KELLNER STATE MEET West Division again triumphed over its traditional rival, East Division, when Coach Smith's team won the annual State Track and Field Meet at Camp Ran' dall in Madison. With eight men scoring a total of 35 points, West outran the entire field. Jack Kellner was again high scoring man with three first places to his credit. Jack broke the record in both hurdle races and also won the high jump. Wayne Georgeson and Ivan Mashek ran true to form to press jack closely, and conf sequently scored a second in the highs, and a third in- the lows, respectively. Billy Feichtinger added another first place to a perfect score, when he won the 44Ofyard dash in a close race with an East Division rival. Harold Horn and Merrill Stockey reversed their former positions of the Whitewater race. This time Horn won the halffmile with Stockey running third.- Franks, West Divisiorfs miler, ran fourth against a fast Held. Adams Fuchs gained two points with a throw in the discus event to do the only field scoring of the day, with the exception of Kellner in the high jump. The Milwaukee schools dominated the meet, although many individual stars from Madison schools gave much competition. The track and field were in perfect condition. The sun shone most of the day, making the probabilf ity of good competition more certain. HAGER MCCOY HAUPMAN CITY MEET The last track and field meet of the season marked the opening of the new Rufus King Stadium. Although West's undefeated team was the favorite over the other city high schools, the resulting scores were closer than expected, and the meet belonged to anybody until the last event had been run. Then it was learned that the favorite had triumphed after all, with the slim margin of only three points. . Jack Kellner and Billy Feichtinger finished undefeated seasons, when Kell' ner won the high and low hurdles and Feichtinger won the 440fyard dash. Mashek again ran third in the low hurdles. Georgeson, high hurdler, tripped while running second to Kellner and failed to score. Horn and Stockey inf creased their usual number of points by taking a Hrst and second in the halffmile run. Following Colby of Tech for the entire race, Franks scored second in the mile, bringing three more points to our score. Kresf sel, scoring for the first time in the season, took third in the shot, while ' in Fuchs threw to a fourth place in the discus. Jerry Gunville, a new man, tied for fourth place in the polefvault. The hnal score was SSM points. The track was new, and, as a ref , ,, . sult, a little slow, but this did not pref f . vent several fine performances on the T y part of many. This meet brought two . i. more beautiful trophies to West Di' vision. LUNDQUIST KUEMMERLEIN GIOVE HASSET NX!!-HTEWATEI2 The West Division team entered the Whitewater meet as defending champions, and, like true champions, emerged victors for the second successive year. Feichtinger gave West an early lead by winning the quarter mile dash, and later in the day, the 22Ofyard dash. Following this example, Kellner won both the high and low hurdles and tied with Pural for first place in the high jump. These victories gave high point honors to Kellner. Georgeson and Mashek pressed Kellner to the tape in the hurdle races, with Georgeson placing second . in the highs, and Mashek tied for second in the lows. Stockey, although trailing Horn for the greater part of the race, won the halffmile in record time, while Horn finished third. Giove placed sec' ond in another thrilling race, the mile, which he failed to win by only a few feet, when he finished with an amazing sprint. Fuchs, leading weight man, won the discus with a throw of 120 feet. The scoring of the day ended with West's points totaling 46V2. I The Milwaukee high schools have entered this meet only recently. West Division has won the championship for each of the two years it has been com' peting. The Whitewater meet has been a great pleasure to the team, and Coach Smith has only praise for its work there. EMERSON CAPTAIN STOCKEY COACH KURATH CAPTAIN GIOVE CRCSS CGUNTRY West's cross country harriers proved to be a disappointment to their ardent folf lowers by winning only one meet throughout the season. However, Coach Kurf ath has his eyes trained on the future, as the body of the team was made up of several promising freshmen and sophomores. The team's first defeat was suffered at the hands of Washington. The meet was run over the Mitchell Park course with West competing without the service of several of its most promising men. Captain Stockey was ill, McCoy and Horn were suffering from infection, and Hare was recovering fromgzan old injury. Has' set, a first semester freshman, ran the meet to gain experiencig land finished third behind two Purgolders. His points were not counted toward West's total due to his ineligibility. The alumni furnished the opposition for the next meet and defeated the Var' sity 33 to 22. Al Schramn, a former city and state champion, won the event with Hasset in second place. Giove took third place from Kuemmerlein by staging a spirited last minute sprint. Bay View won a triangular meet from West and North at the Mitchell Park course. The Bays won easily, scoring 26 points to '52 of West and 59 of North. The winner of the event was Paul of North. Second, third and fourth places were won by Bay View by Kiehl, Pruski, and Beres, respectively. West managed to gain the next three places and finished in second place. Stockey, Kuemmerlein, and Giove were the harriers who won these places. West won its first and only meet of the season by defeating South and Linf coln in a triangular meet. West scored 37 points to 52 for South and 5 7 for Lin' coln. The run was won by Rink of South, and Stockey of West took second place. Washington and Bay View tied for first in the State Cross Country meet. Pray of Shorewood retained his individual championship by easily outrunning his op' ponents. Stockey was the only runner from West to place, and, by running eighth, he earned his emblem. The next meet was run at Lake Park under the auspices of the Milwaukee State Teachers' College. East captured the city cross country meet for the third consecutive year by amassing 55 points. The score of the other schools were: Washington, 67, Bay View, 81, South, 93, Lincoln, 118, North, 144, and West, 178. Paul of North was the individual winner of the meet, which was run over the Mitchell Park course. Captain Stockey was the only emblem winner of this year's team. The team suffered from injuries and lack of experience. The team's captain was the only ref turning emblem winner. However, the team looks forward to a favorable year due to several exceptional performances by ineligible men. SWIMMING West's swimming team managed to win a large majority of its meets despite the many handicaps which confronted it. The swimmers were defeated in three dual meets, placed third in the city meet, and won seven dual meets throughout the season. Although finishing third in the city meet, the boys had previously beaten Tech, a team which finished second in the meet. The team went through its schedf ule without suffering defeat from any of the city high schools in dual meets. The boys' records were made all the more remarkable by the many obstacles which they overcame. They were forced by the want of a swimming tank, to practice at the city natatorium and to swim most of their meets in their opponents' tanks. The swimmers practiced at 7th and Highland Avenue and in any other tank which was available to them. The team lost its star performer, Wortley, through February graduation, and Erdf man and Timarac through inf eligibility. West competed in the State invitational meet sponsored by the Milwaukee State Teachers' College. Bamberger's second in the breast stroke was the only place gained by West. Bay View won the meet, and Kenosha finished second. The city meet was a repetif tion of last year's meet as far as West's placing was concerned. DOLL BAMBERGER l 5, N Ny, ff. if ffl 17'Wff Iv 1 MERBACH BAMBERGER FRUTH DAHL WORTLEY DOLL The boys in the red and white robes finished third through Ba1nberger's second in the breast stroke and in the individual medley, Merbach's fourth in the back stroke, and the third scored by the 1'50fyard medley group. ' West's time ability was shown in its victories in the dual meet in which they participated. Among the teams which they defeated were Lincoln, Washington, West Allis, Tech, North and Cudahy. Shorewood, West Milwaukee, and Milwauf kee University School were the only schools which were able to defeat West. The WestfTech meet proved to be the thriller of the season. The outcome remained in doubt until the last event was over, and then West was found to be ahead 33 to 31. Six men were awarded letters for their efforts during the season. They were: E. Doll, Dahl, Bamberger, Wortley, Merbach, and Furth. Bamberger, Wortley, Doll, and Merbach were the high point scorers of the team. Bamberger was beaten only , f y , twice during the season in the 4 ' K ' . breast stroke and finished sec' ' ond both times. Wortley, a con' sistent point scorer, divided his time between basketball and swimming and managed to win emblems in both. A large num' ber of the emblem men are grad' uating, and Coach Hansen will build his next year's team around Merbach, the only returning J letterman. DAHL NEEDHAN FRUTH TUMBLING West's tumbling team of 1932 won the IuniorfSenior division championship and placed second to North in the FreshmenfSophomore division. They were beaten out of third place in the FreshmanfSophomore division by 2f10 of a point out of a possible 600 points. The only members of last year's team wlgn werefback to compete on the 1933 team were Wglidl and Schertzel, the Freshmenfgbxphomore champions. The most promising men in the IuniorfSenior division, who came up from the FreshmenfSophf omore team, are Schertzel, Buchar, and Brooks. The most promising prospects among the FreshmenfSophomore team are: Wenzler, YVebbe, Breisak, Stoper, and Le May. Several changes have been made in the method of scoring this year. Instead of the six highest scores of each school in each group counting toward the score, the eight highest scores will be counted. In last year's meet a contestant was required to do one exercise, and one exercise was optional on any piece of apparatus. This year the judge will choose both of the exercises for the contestant on each piece of apparatus. Several promising men of last year's team will be unable to compete this year because an eligibility clause has been inserted. The team is working under the able tutelage of Mr. Gerber, and is making rapid steps forward. GVMNASIUM Born - as unusually practical things often are - of necessity, West Division's gym' nasium has answered the purpose of many activities for several years. It is large and spaciousg the equipment is modern and of the best, the lockers and showers are new and wellfkept. Everything in connection with the gymnasium is wellforganized. Mr. Hansen and Mr. Gerber, gym instructors, are not only teachers, but also the friends of the students and in return are well liked by them. Under the direction of these two men, all forms of athletics are carried on in the gym. Baseball, basketball, track, volley ball, and many other sports are enjoyed at one time or another during the year. In the warm spring and summer months of school, the classes are conducted outfoffdoors on the school campus. Here baseball is played. Teams are chosen and for the rest of the semester they have a daily battle of words and skill. For those inf terested in track work, Mr. Hansen has made it possible to run during gym classes. Many promising track candif dates have been unearthed in this way. A system of student instrucf tors, called gym leaders, has been instituted to train some of the older boys in handling men. The system has been very successful and there are many applicants for the few positions that are open. GIRLS' A. A. The success of the G. A. A. year depends upon the capability of the oHicers of the association, girls chosen at the beginning of the year and remaining in of'Hce for two semesters. This year an exceptionally fine group did their duties to everyone's satisfaction. The president was Theda Hagenahg the vicefpresident, Ethel Zozelg and the secretary and treasurer, Margaret Brosin. The class representatives were: Geraldine Gerlach for the Seniors, Gisella Wenzler, juniors, and Margaret Steuber, Sophomores. Among the duties of these girls came the refereeing 'of basketball and volley ball games, keeping score of games of this type, and arranging the program for the G. A. A. activities of the year. Even though leaders, however, they were allowed to participate in these sports themselves and to earn their emblems. At the end of every year the G. A. A. holds a banquet at which all the awards and trophies for the year are given to those who earn them. Here the winning teams in basketball, volley ball, swimming, baseball, and other sports receive their prizes. Although winning is hard, the great number of girls competing in intramural sports proves that hardfearned awards are best appreciated. TENNIS For the second successive year, tennis classes for beginners and advanced players were held with great success by Miss Peters. The girls played on the outdoor courts when weather permitted and in the gym when it was raining or cold outfoffdoors. There were two tournaments of note during the year, one being held in the first semester and the other in the last semester. Great interest was taken in these tournaments, and the entry lists were always large. The early tournament was held in October of the first semester. The players were arranged in braquets, and the matches were played at the convenience of the competitors, although there was a time limit set. When a match was completed, the winner reported to Miss Peters to find out her new opponent. The tournament progressed rapidly until on the last day of October, when the championship round was played by Jean Romas and Margaret Steuber. jean Romas emerged victorious, and Margaret attained the position of runnerfup. Rose Bottoni placed third in the tournament. The Girls' Athletic Association held a banquet at which the winners received their awards. jean, the Racquet Queen of West Division, ref ceived a gold pin, and the second and third place winners, Margaret Steuber and Rose Bottoni, received silver pins. The spring tournament is being looked forward to. The girls are practicing in the gym under the direction of Miss Peters, the girls' athletic director. f f . . , 1 pi ,,,, 4, ff' 4, I-,-4.4 I, 4!,A7 A, .pf 'ai j,Jftf0-11-1 v. BASKETBALL Once a year the girl athletes of West Division hold a basketball tournaf ment, which is usually supervised by Miss Peters. Practically all the girls participate in intramural basketball, which makes it possible to hold sucf cessful competition. The annual tournament lasted from early in December until the latter part of January. Contrary to the usual conception that basketball is a boys sport, the great interest shown in the girls' tournament proves that members of both sexes can enjoy it equally well. Large crowds attended the game, which were played in the girls' gym after school hours. At times many were refused admission because of lack of space. The championship game of the tournament was heralded by advertisf ing in the Comet newspaper and by posters and- signs around school. The attending crowd was too large for the seating room and many were obliged to stand around the side of the floor. The game was close, and the winner was not certain until the last minute when Z1 member of Dorothy Stamm's class A team sunk a long basket to win. Captain Dorothy Stamm, Marf garet Steuber, Ruth Vollmer, Mary Kosalas, Ericka Gardow, Margaret Brosin, Doris Torp, and Gisella Wenzler were the members of the winning team. The spectators grew so excited during the game that the referee had to use his authority to bring about order. The winners in the basketball tournament also received their awards at the G. A. A. banquet. VOLLEV BALI. Volley ball is the game in which a leather inflated ball is hit over a net and, if possible, back again. At West Division, the girls manage to send it back and forth with an amazing regularity. The season started in September and lasted until the tournament. The tournament did not start until the third of Gctober and lasted until the fifteenth of November. The games were arranged by Miss Peters in an elimination contest, the team having won nine games becoming the winner. The large at' tendance showed the great interest it offered the school. The champion' ship game was played on the fifteenth of October between Captain Kollf morgan's team and Margaret Brosin's team. The game was fast, and a wild excitement ran through the crowd of spectators. When the final point had determined the winner, a loud shout of applause was heard. The members of the winning team were: Blanche Kollmorgan, Audrey Adams, Kathryn Bea, Pearl Dreifuerst, Helen Else, Katherine Javorcek, Lyla Mickelson, Irene Tischer, Margaret Seifert, Clara Hess. lt was possible to conduct two games at once because there were two courts, each equipped with nets, in the gym. Girls participating in out of school leagues were ineligible for school competition. This kept many able athletes off the school teams. Gold basketballs were awarded to members of the winning team at the G. A. A. banquet. GIRLS' TRACK MEET After many unsuccessful attempts had been made to hold the annual girls' track meet out of doors, the poor weather made it necessary to hold it in the girls' gym. The success of the meet, however, was not impaired by this inconvenience. This meet was enjoyed more than any other athletic show of the year because of the large list of varied events. Almost every girl participated. Margaret Steuber won the seventyffive yard dash, and Loretta Wolf lersdorf won the thirtyfyard dash. The sixtyffive low hurdle race was won by Gisella Wenzler, who finally defeated a large field of competitors. Mar' garet Steuber won the backward basketball throw with a heave that com' pletely outdistanced her rival, Margaret Ruppert, who, however, returned to the front by winning the ball hurling event. Margaret Brosin won the high jump and Mildred Schwalbe, the broad jump. The feature event of the day was the shuttle relay, which was won in excellent time by a team representing the sophomore class of 1934. The team was composed of: Margaret Kosalas, Margaret Brosin, Catherine Smith, Marie Engersbach, Bessie Prouty, Marion Schmitt, Loretta Wollersdorf, Pauline Bennewitz, and Gisella Wenzler. Team scoring was done according to the point winner's year in school. The sophomores won the meet with 32 2X5 points, while the freshmen were second with 24 points. Small gold or silver pins were awarded to the point winners in each event. The girls asserted that because of these and also, the keen competition, the track meet is the best event of the year. BASEBALL Baseball came to the front with an unusual zest this year because of the fact that so many girls were trying to Win places on the different teams. Practicing seemed a pleasure to everyone and nonfconference games were being played early in March, more than a month before the schedule began. The games were free to the students and many attended the games which were held in the girls' gym. The championship game was played on April 25 th between the Sophomores and the Juniors. The Sophomores emerged victors. Members of the winning team were: Margaret Steuber, captain, Elsie Mardak, cofcaptaing Katheryn Bea, Dorothy Busacker, Elsie Engersbach, Marion Hall, Blanche Kollmorgan, Florence lwlarchi, Ruth Vollmer, Ruth Reilly, and Margaret Seifert. The baseball played by the girls is the same as that played by the boys, the same rules and regulations being used. Miss Peters, girls' athletic advisor, refereed the important games and was the authority on rules and settled all disputes. The winning team was presented with a silver loving cup at the G. A. A. banquet, where they received great praise for their excellent sportsmanship and ability. RED CROSS LIFE SAVING It is a real achievement to earn a junior or Senior Red Cross Life Saving badge. Swimmers at West Division earn one of these badges as one of their highest ambitions and consequently the classes are large. The examinations given by Miss Peters are most rigid and only good swimmers are able to pass them successfully. The girls who won their junior emblems are: Marion Canright, Jane Davies, Katherine Folbrecht, Eleanor Neidermeyer, Lizette Rabe, Lorraine Radtke, and Ruth Weis' singer. The winners of the Senior badges are: Genevieve Bluemm, Geralf dine Gerlach, Erika Gardow, Dorothy Stamm, and Doris Torp. These girls will not only receive pins and badges, but also one hundred points to' ward their G. A. A. emblem. The swimming classes were wellfnlled. Besides giving enjoyment, they made it possible to learn various strokes and many different methods of saving drowning people. The beginners' class was filled to overflowing and many girls who could not swim a stroke before school can now swim with great confidence. The classes and meets and Life Saving examinaf tions were held at the Seventh Street Natatorium. Pins were awarded to those ranking highest at the end of the course. SWIMMING MEET and CLASSES Une of the most popular sports among the girls at West is swimming. Classes are held at the City Natatorium, and instructions are given in all manners and forms of this art. Each year the girls interested in swimming hold a swimming meet under the auspices of the G. A. A. Teams are formed by arranging the competitors in class groups. This year the sophomore team was victorious. The meet was held at the new Y. W. C. A. pool on the twentyfiifth of March. There are two forms of events swum by the girls. Une is a form type and another is a race type. The winners in the form competition were: Ethelyn Root in the front crawl, Madeline Biersach in the back crawl, Madeline Biersach in the breast stroke, and Elsie Mardak in the diving, closely followed by Fay Hiller and Madeline Biersach. In the racf ing events the winners were: Elsie Mardak in the side stroke, Madeline Biersach in the breast stroke, Gisella Wenzler in the front crawl, and the sophomore team in the relay. Three points were given for first place and two, for second. The individual winner of the meet was Madeline Bierf sach, who won three Hrst places and one third place. EMBLEM WINNERS To win a G. A. A. emblem is one goal every girl wishes to attain. This reward is obtained only after participating in many school athletics, outside sports, and uphold' ing the rules of the association. Points are awarded, and an emblem winner must have earned a certain number of them. The following girls, after earning the required number of points, were award' ed their first emblem: Jeanette Allman, Katheryn Bea, Pauline Bennewitz, Margaret Brosin, Marion Canright, Gerda Egloff, Helen Else, Marie Engersbach, Katherine Eolbrecht, Theda Hagenah, Therese Halusan, Eal Hiller, Lucille Kaiser, Blanche Kollmorgan, Mary Kosalas, Vera Nelson, Lizette Rabe, Marguerite Roge, Ruth Schneider, Margaret Seifert, Margaret Steuber, Ruth Vollmer, Ethel Whiting, Ruth Wilson, and Ethel Zozel. An even higher reward for athletic competition is the second emblem. A girl must have earned a first emblem to be eligible for a second award. Those girls who earned their second emblems were: Dorothy Stamm, Genevieve Bluemm, Geraldine Gerlach, and Margaret Ruppert. The emblem awards are well worth the effort necessary to win one. The first emblems are of white felt, trimmed with red silk, while the second award is of red and white chenille. The emblems are an even greater achievement because of the fact that a girl cannot have failed in any of her subjects during the previous semester to be eligible for these awards. R 4 UIXIQIQGANIZED SPCDIQTS Intramural and innerfclass contests are not the only ways that the girls participate in athletic activities. Many other interests occupy their spare time. Several clubs and minor organizations have been formed to further develop these unorganized activf ities. The Hiking Club is one most recently sanctioned and is now arranging many hikes to various places of interest. Winter brought snow and ice and in keeping with these, ice skating, tobogf ganing, skiing. However, as warm weather soon set in, these activities became im' possible. Golf is popular among those fortunate enough to be able to play, and it is a common sight to see groups of girls with clubs slung over their shoulders preparf ing to go to some neighboring course. The Athletic Association does not award many points for golf but this, however, does not make the sport any less interesting or any less fun. A golf tournament is held once yearly and good scores are often made. Horseback riding is quite popular and many girls are earning points in that way. Riding, however, is quite expensive and not as many as would like are participating. Much interest is given to these outside sports, as Y f they are out of the ordif nary athletic routine and are still point winning activities. 1 Q TPC U LTV C01 flu-finer This Annual will stand as the memoryfbook of a class that leavesmgh school at a profoundly disturbed era in our national life. Classes have graduated from West at critical periods in the pastain periods of war, of depressiong but no class has left us at a time so unsettled socially, politically, economically. Truly, no generation of young people ever had more need for reliable information, for insight, for power to think straight, and for emotional stability. We hope your four years of opportunity at this school have been employed toward the acquiring of these things. We hope that your future records may prove that you not only exercised these qualities but that you also utilized them by contributing real service in bringing better adjustments in the world in which you live, A. C. S1-IONG All the worlds a stage, and the senior, who goes on for the next act, intends to play his part well. In the present drama he must play more intensely, more sincerely, more thoughtfullyg he must be ready to take up arms against a sea of troubles, and by opposing, end themf' He should not read his lines with frivolity, nor with pathos. The play is not a farceg it is not 2. tragedy. It is life. R. G. WEIHE ADMINISTRATION Students come and go, but the faculty remains forever on duty. Thus, many are influenced by a few. In order that this influence may be justified, the faculty must fulfill their duties wisely and carefully. The responsibility of molding characters is no small burden and is not undertaken by a teacher unsympathetic with her pupils' problems and desires. The student is groping this way and that way through a maze of desires, ideals, and ambitions. Some' times his hopes are certain, and then, uncertain, as new ideas continually conflict with already established opinions. The faculty strives to steady these headlong changes by search' ing for real, but undeveloped talent. Then they seek to develop it. As crowded conditions hamper this work, the life advisement plan is utilized. This system of advisors, programs, and conferences is designed to crystallize the ideas of students and to help them ind their right niche in life. An unexcelled opportunity for contact is offered in the friendship between a teacher and a student. Both gain a better understanding and appreciation of each other than many lectures could produce. Cur faculty is not a group of superfmen and superfwomen doing the impossible by easily solving the destinies of every youth, but human beings, who with the aid of years of study and years of experience, are working W hard and seriously at a tremendously difficult I Ivenelle Thomas and complex problem.

At the time of her death, Miss Neuhaus was also serv' ing as chairman of the faculty committee of the National Honor Society. She was inf strumental, too, in obtaining tuition scholarships for countless appreciative students. A valuable member of the faculty committee for the library, because of her experience as librarian at the University of Chicago and at Burlington, Wisconsin, her helpful suggesf tions and constructive work will be missed. She was graduated from the University of Chicago and took additional work at the University of Wisconsin and at McGill Univerf sity, Montreal. She came to West Division as a teacher of English in 1910 and taught here until shortly before her death, February 18, 1933. Miss Neuhaus lived with an only sister, Alma, in a quaint, old colonial home in the pictur- esque town of Burlington. Grieved by the death of Miss Neuhaus, the devoted sister folf lowed her two months later. With her quiet, unhurried movements and trim, unostentatious appearance, our Miss Neue haus seemed to Ht into that substantial background. Her twinkling, brown eyes and whimf sical expression tempered the seriousness of her face. Exceptionally well liked by the faculty and student body because of her kindliness and sin' cere helpfulness, Miss Neuhaus will long retain a place in the memory of those who knew her. She will be remembered by the many members of the Athena Literary Society of which she was long the head, She will be remembered by the many students who felt the influence of an inspiring teacher. She will be remembered by her colleagues for her unselfish interest in the whole school. FEATURES f ,. I ggi?
