To Minneapolis, city of industry, of art and culture, of parks and playgrounds, Gateway City to the Land of Ten Thousand Lakes and Key City to the Great Northwest; and to West High School, center of learning, school of many interests, and door to better things, we dedicate the 1938 Hesperian WEST HIGH SHOPS GIVE VARIED INTERESTS cReheat czJ nteted L MINNEAPOLIS —CITY OF BEAUTIFUL LAKES AND PARKS j NORTHROP AUDITORIUM unit te MINNEAPOLIS City of Culture City of Industry City of Playgrounds The Gateway City WEST HIGH SCHOOL Center of Learning School of Many Interests School of Recreations Door to the Future iiiiimiiiiiiiMimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiimimiiiiimimiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiii Few men in America have the educational influence of our superintendent. Carroll R. Reed. His B A., M.A., and Ph.D. degrees from Harvard and Carleton Universities provide an unexcelled academic background; his twenty-seven years as a superintendent have placed him at the top among leaders of educational practice. NOBLE B. SCHOONMAKER The principal is the center of the school. To our principal we give full credit for building our school well through his inspiring leadership, his high American ideals, his humanness.«True man, true leader, true builder, he sets the goals that we strive to reach. Fortunate are we Westerners to have him as our guide. MINNEAPOLIS BOARD OF EDUCATION Walter E. Johnson, James F. Gould, Lynn Thompson. Henry J. Bessesen, Arthur Le Sueur, Dr. C. R. Drake, Secretary. Alma Hec Assistant Secretary. Helen L. Bauman. President, Superintendent C R. Reed. POLICY MAKERS The Board of Education sets the policies; the Superintendent of Schools carries them out. Through close harmony between these two agencies. Minneapolis has secured a school system second to none, administered efficiently and economically. These Board members receive no financial remuneration; they sacrifice time and money for the sake of the children of the city. We students appreciate this fact and give all honor and credit to these public-spirited citizens who are doing more than any other group to build our city well. The President of the Board. Miss Bauman, was herself a city teacher and is now a successful business woman of Minneapolis; the secretary. Dr. Drake, is one of our city's outstanding surgeons. Two prominent attorneys, known to every Minneapolitan, are on the Board. Henry J. Bessesen and Judge Arthur LeSueur. James Gould, head of the Shrine Club and former State Game and Fish Commissioner. has been prominent in our city's affairs for many years; and Walter Johnson, because of years of practical financial experience, is an expert on taxes and finance. Lynn Thompson has served for more than twenty years on the Board and has been the people's champion for good schools. Wherever good schools are mentioned. Lynn Thompson's name is inevitably brought up. To our Board of Education we offer sincere praise for doing an enormous task ably and well.

COACH CARL JACKSON The West debating squad has for five straight years won the city debating crown, and the 1937 team went on to win the state crown. The team this year is made up of the following: Bill Hoffman. John Stone. Harold Gellman and Ralph Walls. Besides winning the city title for 1938. the team has gone on to win the regional tournament, winning out over a strong Chaska team. Prior to these contests the team had participated in several invitational meets that were held in various parts of the state. At a three day contest held at the Moorhead State Teachers College High School. West finished second among 18 schools competing. The subject for debate in all these contests has been: Resolved that the State of Minnesota should adopt a Unicameral system of legislation. Although this may frighten you at first, the subject has manifested widespread interest wherever it has been discussed A new significance has been attached to debating at West High through the efforts of Carl Jackson, the coach. ROBERT TRAFF RALPH WALLS SPEAKERS IN THEIR OWN RIGHT The 1938 record of the declamatory squad under the direction of Miss Joyce Gregory was the most outstanding in the history of West High. After 45 students had signed up for this activity. 19 were chosen for the first squad This squad represented West in inter-scholastic meets, each student having appeared at least six times, and piled up a record of 29 first places in invitational meets alone before the State League and National Forensic League tournaments began Additional honors were brought to the school by the people whose names are starred who were granted membership in the National Forensic League for excellent work in speech activities. West is the only school in Minnesota to win two top prizes and the first high school in Minneapolis .o win these honors. The members of the squad who represented West in the National Forensic League Tournament held at Virginia. Minnesota, were: ORATORY................ SERIOUS DRAMATICS...... HUMOROUS DECLAMATION...

Throughout the time that its members have been attending West High, it has taken a commanding interest in all school affairs. It has excelled in many branches of school activities, and not the least of its accomplishments was the placing of over fifty of its members on the National Honor Society's Honor Roll in January. This is regarded as one of the highest honors that can come to any of our students and as a consequence there is a keen sense of rivalry for this placement. On the next page is found the names of those Juniors who won this honor. ADVISORY 104 Row 1—Nelson. Be ©die, Anderson. Mr Bakke. Kennedy. Allen Row 2—Boeman. Ahlstrom. Borg-sing. Bartlett. Bezoier.

SOPHOMORES Last year, when the present Sophomores first entered West High School, one of their leaders set forth the ideals of this group as follows: 'Our chief reason for attending high school is to apply ourselves diligently to acquire the knowledge that shall best fit us to co-operate with others in certain activities in life.'1 They first set a goal and then in earnest sought the attainment of that goal.

CO-CAPTAINS GERBER AND SMITH THE COWBOYS' RUIN BILL IENKS WEST — 2 NORTH — 6 For 46V2 minutes out of 48 a heavier West squad outplayed a seemingly hapless but scrappy North eleven on September 24. With a minute and a half to go, and the Cowboys leading 2 to 0, Bob Brodie, speedy Polar halfback, gathered in a fumbled Cowboy lateral, and ran down the sidelines 65 yards for a touchdown. The final score was 6 to 2. In the first half, the hard-charging West forward wall broke through to block three Polar punts. Bob Smith played sensationally both as guard and as fullback. Dave Sauer, Junior fullback playing in his first high school game, returned a kick 42 yards, almost breaking away for a touchdown BUTCH LEVY WEST—12 MARSHALL-0 The Cardinals of Marshall, the lightweight team of the league, put up a terrific light before going down before the Cowboys 12 to 0, October 1, on the West field The Cardinal and White team had possession of the ball most of the time, but Harry Gerber's talented toe kept them in check, while his teammates pushed over two touchdowns resulting from Smith's block of a punt and Dahlberg's recovery of a fumble in Marshall territory Bjomlier nd Sauer made West s tallies. KELLY ABOUT TO MAKE A TACKLE TWO HOMECOMINGS WEST—14 SOUTH —0 Friday. October 8, was a day of reckoning for the Cowboys. That day was South's homecoming which the Cowboys ruined by decisively smothering the Tigers. 14 to 0. That day also saw eleven good individual players blending into one fine co-ordinated team The first touchdown was scored on a pass from Bob Bradford to Harry Gerber. Bradford, a newly-discovered Junior star, sparked the Cowboy offense and scored the second touchdown on a wide end 19-yard run. He also placekicked the two extra points. West made eight first downs, gained 263 yards from scrimmage. However, the Cowboys nullified their offensive advantage by fumbling eight times WEST —25 ROOSEVELT —0 Hitting their real stride in the second half, the Green and White gridders rode over a big but ponderous Roosevelt eleven to the score of 25 to 0 on the Teddy field October 15. This marked the second straight homecoming that the Cowboys ruined. The last two periods were featured by the terrific line-plunging of Bashing Bob Smith who averaged eight yards per try and drove to two touchdowns. Gerber and Bjomlie scored the other two touchdowns on passes from Bradford DAVID STONE A TENSE MOMENT IN THE STANDS irving cummings Mi HOMECOMING WEST —37 WASHBURN —0 More than 8.000 fans, the largest crowd ever to see a Minneapolis high school football game, jammed the West field on Thursday. October 28, to witness the West-Central championship tilt. It was also the Cowboys' homecoming and Green and White Day. Let us set the picture for you. There is only 45 seconds left to play. The crowd is up on its feet ready to leave. West is leading 7-6 Central has the ball on West's 45-yard stripe. Captain Don Schneider fades back, runs far to his left, and throws a long left-handed pass to Ira Ilsham, who goes over the goal line for the six points that decide the Minneapolis high school championship. Fifteen minutes later, after hundreds of wild Central fans had been cleared off the field, the Pioneers converted the extra point. Every member on the squad gave all he had, and except for one fateful moment, they would have realized their hopes for a long-awaited football championship—their first in 15 long years On the previous Friday, October 22, the Cowboys rose to their greatest heights of the season and defeated the Washburn eleven by the score of 37-0 on the West field. From the beginning of the game to the end the outcome was never in doubt. david sauer CUMMINGS IS TACKLED THE RECORDS SHOW That in the last game of the season West tied Edison, 19-19. That Dick Kelley was the leading Green and White ground-gainer, averaging 8.6 yards every time he carried the ball. That Harry Gerber was the most consistent punter in the league. He had a season's average of 36 yards per punt. That West made 71 first downs to their opponents' 47 and gained 1,702 yards from scrimmage to their opponents' combined total of 1.011 yards. That ‘ Butch” Levy averaged almost 54 yards per kickoff, which is practically up to college standards. STATISTICS DON'T SHOW: That Fred Van't Hull opened tremendous holes in the forward wall and broke up opposing plays before they could get started. That Bob Smith plugged up holes all along the line in every game and continually brought down opposing ball carriers with crushing tackles. That Davy Stone and Don Bjomlie did a splendid job of signal-calling, besides blocking and tackling in grand style. That Butch Levy stepped into an entirely unfamiliar center position in midseason and performed like a veteran. That the entire football squad and coaching staff were not only a fine lot of football players but also a swell bunch of fellows. MARSHALL MAN B E I N G S M O T H E R E D bob bannon BASKET TOSSERS Our basketball Cowboys fought gamely and well. They were a new team and could not be expected to compete on equal terms with veteran quints. Because basketball sank to a very low level at West during the past few years, time and effort must be expended to bring it back into favor with the students. Beginning as a green team, our quint made material progress during this year's season. While Cliff Anderson, Jim Smith and Tom Randall will be lost through graduation, John Olsen, Art Patterson, Bob Andre, and Dave Thomas will be back next year. This season's record of one win and seven losses will not be repeated next season. Coach Bill Farrell had much to give the boys and the team has learned much; he will have much more to give them next year. Evidence of progress made is shown by the score of the final game—35-34, with an overtime period necessary to decide the victor. The boys gave an excellent account of themselves in this game, the best played of the year.

The second semester, however, witnessed lower fortunes. With the loss of Gerber. Peterson, Brownell. Smith, King and Bannon through graduation, the remaining four games of the season were played with a practically new team. With this team the West Pucksters lost to South. 0-1; won from Marshall, 2-1; and entered the play-off at the Arena February 10 only to lose to Marshall. 1-2. In the preliminary game a week later, the Cowboys won third place in the city league by trouncing Washburn, 4-0. This was our best-played game of the season.

ARCHERY EN GARDE! BATTER UP! The West High Cowboys enjoyed a splendid season in 1937 by winning some very important games and by placing two men on the All-City team. West successfully defended its Carleton College tournament championship which is emblematic of the state championship In the city High School league. West got off to a slow start, bowing to Edison in the opening game in eleven innings. West easily won from Marshall in the ensuing game. However, the Cowboys went into a brief slump after the Marshall game and basehits were very scarce in both the Roosevelt and North games. West losing on both occasions. The boys emerged from their temporary slump and ended the season in a winning streak defeating South, Washburn and Central in well played games. Stan Epstein and Vincent Else, third baseman and second baseman, respectively, were without peers in the city, while Phillip Finkelstein was one of the best outfielders in the league. Bob Krieger pitched a no-hit game during the Carleton tournament which deserves special recognition. With Phil Canterbury captain for 1938 the Cowboys are sure that they will go through another successful season Don Houck is the popular coach who has seen the boys through other successful seasons.

Twin Cities, and in the state. Such stalwarts as Captain Joe Hayes, the state champion sprinter, Robert Gilles, the state broadjump champion, and Carter DeLaittre, the Metropolitan weights champion, participated. These boys were chiefly responsible for the prestige and the many trophies that now testify to their matchless skill and prowess. These three were ably supported in the various contests of the season by hard working athletes of no mean ability. Dick Kelly and Milton Larson were the two who were instrumental in running the fastest Minnesota one-half mile relay on record. Leonard Fairbanks and Irving Cummings were equally effective in amassing points sufficient to bring again to West the eighth Minnesota State High School Championship. Mr. Louis Zavodsky, the coach, is as modest as he is efficient, but we give to him all due credit for a line job done in a superior way. State championships are earned only through hard work on the part of everyone. A Front Row; P lenks, M Larson. Boston (Capt). Mr Zavodsky (Coach). Allen, Kelly. Overholt. Back Row; Zimmerman. Warren.

During that period, the West High teams have won two championships, and have never finished lower than third; a record excelled only by Central. Each spring, between forty-five and sixty boys have enrolled in tournament play and most of them have continued through the season. Unfortunately for the building of school teams, matches have to be played on park courts scattered in the vicinity, where the difficulty of obtaining room is a serious handicap. A project worth considering is the building of courts reserved especially for West High team candidates. This season opens with great hopes of success. At least seven players are veterans, having represented West High in inter-scholastic competition. These are: John Adams, John Howard, Bill Downing, Melvin Lifson, Ralph Thacher, John Anderson and Dick Savage. There is a considerable group of other players, who have an excellent chance of replacing some of these boys on the team. John Adams. John Howard. Arnull Ueland. Dick Savage. FISTICUSSES! Working under the theory that it is more worthy to give than to receive. this band of stalwart warriors meet to vie with each other in the art of giving. When the recipients find the receipts are coming in profusion, they revert to the philosophy that a punch on the nose can be a worthy stimulation and so seek to justify it on those grounds. So. whether we give or receive, we have a very satisfying turn of mind. Our own personal conclusion on the whole matter is that we can lick our weight in wildcats. The team began practice last fall, meeting every Tuesday and Thursday after school. Their instructor was Mr. Dvorak of the University of Minnesota.

Because we have worked long hours and burned much midnight oil, we have given ourselves a page on which to tell you that in spite of all these troubles, we did enjoy our work in making this book. Because the 1937 HESPERIAN was such a success. our task has been made doubly difficult, for much is expected of us. Truly, the task of turning out a good yearbook is not a small one. We owe our advisers much. Mr. Leipold is just about the finest friend and adviser that any student could have. When all is said and done, we did enjoy our work— and we hope you like it.

It has been active by giving performances in the Christmas Day program, West Hi-Larities, and some of its members were prominent in the Homecoming Day program One performance was such that South St. Paul High school requested the cast to repeat its performance for the students of that school. Maskers' main purpose is play production, but it also has many social affairs for its members. Miss Gregory, adviser of the dub, has been one of the greatest factors in building up its prestige. DE POL THIS dub derives its name from the first letters of debate and politics and its main activities are along these two lines. This club meets every week and with the cooperation of its adviser, Miss Backus, really has very interesting meetings. De Pol conduds debates and discussions, and brings prominent speakers to West High to lecture to the students on current topics. It is one of the first clubs that West High has ever had. During the many years of its existence it has always been very active in the school's affairs. Row 1: Franksen; Landis; Undgren. V. Pres.; Kennedy. Sergeant-at-Arms; Miss Gregory; Swenson; Hellier.

On a previous page we have assigned to this group space more worthy of their achievements. This group has won local, state, and national honors. They have brought laurel after laurel to their school.

GERMAN CLUB Arbeit ist schonl Stundeniang konnt' ich zusehnl THE activities of the German Club depend upon the interests of its members, who are devoted to a better understanding of the customs of Germany. In attaining this understanding several devices were singled out to arouse interest and stimulate the energies of those engaged in the study of German The broad range of German topics provides a large field from which the members select topics that particularly interest them. FRENCH CLUB Oui. Ouil THAT isn’t all that these members of the French Club know of the language of France but it must be conceded that it is a most essential element of itl The members of this group meet regularly under the guidance of Miss Hiscock to study the habits and customs of the people of France. They have found that the value of the study of the language of a nation is enhanced immeasurably by a better understanding of the ideals of the people who speak that language. The result of it all is a better liking that eventually develops into a better understanding. Row 1: Raines. Treas ; Gammons. Pres.; Miss Hiscock; Ameson. V. Pres.; Hnklestein.

THE Spanish Club consists of members of the various Spanish classes who have had at least one semester of that language and who desire to further their knowledge of the real Spain and its people by informal means. The adviser, Mr. McLaughlin, has had the great advantage of visiting and studying in Spain, thus gaining first hand information so necessary to a real stimulation of interest.

FEW students actually realize the powerful bearing that the West High A Cappella Choir has had upon their school. Already this organization has become nationally famous and has drawn favorable comments from many of the country's foremost critics. In competition with similar groups at the North Central Music Educators' Conference last year the Choir won superior rating for its work. For individual technique and true interpretation of great music this organization is outstanding. The Choir is proud to publicize its tour to St. Louis and participation in the great national musical contest and festival to be held in late March. The Choir has set the top honors as their goal, and will not know failure with the support of the music lovers of our city and our school. The director, Peter Tkach, is nationally famous as the leader of this choir and to him is due much of the credit for making our school famous wherever choirs of this nature are known To students of West, the hearing of this group of singers is one school experience that will never be forgotten. WEST HIGH BAND TRAMP! TRAMP! TRAMP! WEST'S All-American band is famous throughout the state as an organization that knows how to march and to march well. Last spring at the National Convention it was selected to demonstrate marching at the National Supervisory Conference. This is an honor that is well earned. Mr. Krieger, the Bandmaster. has demonstrated throughout the years that he has been at West that he knows how to conduct a band This band is found wherever any school contest is being held. Half of the success of the football season depends upon the band, for its stirring music has sent more than one team down the field for a touchdown. At the present time there are more than a hundred members in the band, with seventy-two of them in the marching band. On Green and White day, these boys and girls added a colorful bit to an already colorful occasion. When holidays are observed in the auditorium, it is the band that puts the group in the proper spirit. Whether on the athletic field or in assembly, the West High Band really goes to town in a colorful way. It is an organization that will never be forgotten by any Westerner.

THEY SHALL MAKE MUSIC ONE octette, ready for booking, a jazz band that really plays for dances, and a Madrigal Club that includes among its members West's outstanding musicians—these groups are feature enough for one page! The Octette Club and the jazz Band are professional groups appearing before many groups throughout the course of a year. The Octette also has been heard over local radio stations on numerous occasions Mr Tkach is the adviser of all three of these organizations and that fact alone assures their success. The Madrigal Club is West s formal organization featuring musicians The members put on their own programs and have much fun and profit as a result. WEST HI OCTETTE • Row 1: F. Cooley; Gears; B.

The Clubs meet every morning during the first period in room 404. While these two organizations are separate unto themselves, they perform a very important secondary function in that from their number are selected the members of West's famous a cappella choir. Thus, it is these singing boys and girls who are hoping not only to secure gain and profit from the glee clubs but also to perhaps secure the coveted honor of being in the choir. One of the fine traditions of West is to have these two groups parade through the halls of the school on the day preceding Christmas vacation, singing the beautiful carols with which we are all familiar. As they wind slowly through the halls, classroom doors are opened and two thousand students sit in silent wonder at the beauty of the age-old songs sung by these young voices. These boys and girls receive all of the training that an excellent master can give. They enjoy tasks assigned to them and do their work well. In that way, things of lasting beauty are made, such as our Glee Clubs 95 BOYS' GLEE CLUB • Row 1: Fors-mark; Famum; Monson; Mr Tkach; Fransen; Harris; Peterson.

BUILDER-UPPERS 1 GIRLS WITH ACTIVITY ARE AN ASSET THREE HUNDRED THIRTY girls keep moving in the STEP-UP CLUB They are practicing to keep off the side lines of life by the use of fresh air. sunshine, play. work, relaxation, beauty, courtesy, kindness, goodwill, cooperation, and a cup of good cheer. Speed-ball, field hockey, basketball, volley ball, hiking, horseback riding, swimming, fencing, and tumbling—these are their activities, and suited to every type of girl, from freshmen to seniors and for every season of the year. The members of the Step-up Club can take things in their stride, for they are Girls with Activity as an Asset • The BOYS’ ’W” CLUB is to the boys of West High what the G. A. A is to the girls It includes among its members those boys who have excelled in some line of sport. These boys are our school leaders, succeeding where others fail When someone says. 'Tt can’t be done.'' they proceed to do it. From leading the cheering at games to tumbling and fencing in the gymnasium, these boys and girls set the pace They enjoy their school life because they take such an active part in it.

THE ability to relax is fast becoming a national necessity. The tempo of life has increased to such an extent that periods of relaxation are now being made an essential part of one's everyday life. Minneapolis has spent, and is spending, millions of dollars on parks, playgrounds and similar recreational centers. The worthy use of leisure has become recognized as one of the seven cardinal principles of education. Therefore, West High School, realizing the importance of hobbies in every person's life, has undertaken to develop a program that has for its purpose training the individual to use to the greatest advantage his leisure time. On these two pages we have portrayed several of the hobby clubs of West. Boys and girls enter these clubs because of an interest in the particular recreational activity offered as each club's objective. • The BIRD AND CONSERVATION CLUB is most fortunate in having Miss Thomas as the adviser. The club meets regularly and has each year a program of activities mapped out. It has put on displays in the school that have shown the nature of the fine work that it is doing. • The STAMP CLUB is also directed by Miss Thomas and it has as enthusiastic a group of members as any club could have. Some of the collections belonging to members of this group would be a credit to a professional collector of stamps. IN CLUBS LIKE THESE TWO similar clubs that have for their purpose the worthy use of leisure time are the Camera Club and the Chess Club. • The CAMERA CLUB has performed a two-fold service: it has trained its members n recreational photography, which in itself is a meritorious service, and it has recorded for future years the principal events and activities that have occurred at West If perchance during a football game you have observed a small group perched atop the school building training what appears to be a machine gun at the players on the field below, that is the Camera Club and its telescopic camera in action. Their movies of football games, special days, parades, and similar events, have proved most interesting to the student body. They make their contribution to the Times, to the Hesperian, to the Spotlight, and to the Limelight. Their objectives are a happy combination of vocation and avocation. • The CHESS CLUB is quite a new organization at West and is under the supervision of Mr. Opfer. Its members are students who have become intrigued by the intricacies of this sport of kings and who desire to further their knowledge of it. Regular sessions are held at which teams are formed to compete against each other. Thus West High seeks to educate for leisure as well as for vocational service. CAMERA CLUB • Row 1: Dantis; Robbins.

THE SERVICE CLUB is one organization at West worthy of the name it bears. It is not easy to be a vender of eats at each football game, but notice the zest and cheerfulness exhibited by those 20 odd members who carry on at each game. Selling 2,400 candied apples, 1,300 candy bars and 500 hot dogs at one game means work and they do it. They are neither banqueted nor heralded in the halls, but when a club adviser wants cash—and in a hurry—the coffers of the Service Club are opened. All praise for such a club! Hats off to them! • There is probably no club in the school that does more actual work than the SIGN CLUB, for it makes all of the signs and posters seen about the school. • As for real service, the STAGE CREW is about tops. Their work is exacting and demanding in the extreme but it is these be-hind-the-scene boys that enable the show to go on. SIGN ROOM • Donna Ensign; Genevieve Robbins; Bob Baumgartner.

The meetings are held the second and fourth Tuesdays of each month for 11 A, 12B, and 12A girls Important activities of the year are the membership drive advertised with an attractive theme The membership party, semester formal dance, the recognition ceremony. Dads' and Daughters' banquet, the joint Hi-Y and Blue Tri Lenten ceremonies Blue Tri also sold megaphones and had a float in the West Parade. The club of about 200 members is managed by a board of 15 competent girls. This board is well advised by Miss Ridings, representing the Y W. C. A and Miss Grosz of West High. • The SILVER TRIANGLE consists of ninth and tenth grade girls On alternate Wednesdays, club meetings and board meetings are held in Room 302. Club members are selected by the officers. Approximately eighteen outstanding girls are selected each term to serve on the board. The Silver Triangle is a branch of the Y. W. C. A A membership party is usually given at the end of the drive. In the past years, the Silver Tri has been active in school affairs and has made plans for giving service to the school in the future.

BOYS' CLUBS ALL H I - Y CABINET THE Hi-Y clubs at West are eight in number. The All Hi-Y Cabinet is composed of representatives of the eight clubs. Each group is a separate entity but by means of this cabinet the work of all is co-ordinated. The Hi-Y clubs this year had charge of the Community Fund drive under the leadership of Paul Jenks, president of the cabinet. Thus were all of the groups brought together for a concentrated drive. All of these groups are sponsored by the school but are supervised directly by the Y.M.C.A. They represent a force for good within the school that is unexcelled THE ORIONS ONE of the leading Hi-Y groups at West is the Orion Club. Among the members can be found participants in all of the school’s activities, from literary enterprises such as debate and declamation, to music and art and athletics. Horace Hitch, President of the Orions, was chairman of the Community Fund Drive Committee, that this year carried on the tradition that West should contribute more than any other Minneapolis high school to the Community Chest. This is but one example of the way in which the Orions have tried to carry on unselfishly for their school. Row 1: Wikman; Gerbar. Stuart; Patterson; P Jenks, Pres.; Peterson. Sauer; Robohm.

The club has as its aim to be of true assistance to pupils and school and to take part in the well organized social functions of the day. It has helped many students in the winning of new friends and the cultivating of interesting personalities. Pax has provided the students with many entertaining auditoriums from week to week.

They now have a picnic planned for the spring. HI - Y CLUBS THE CXC HI-Y CLUB members are a very active and enterprising group. They are the sponsors of numerous social events such as sleighrides. horseback rides, barn dances, picnics, and banquets. The members of the group are all-around boys and are very active in school life. Norman Mitchell, their secretary, is captain of the swimming team and Jim Cassidy is the president of the senior class. Roger Baker, president of CXC from January to June, is also All Hi-Y president. This year the club made up Thanksgiving baskets and distributed them to several deserving families in this district. • The members of LOX HI-Y are proud of the honors won by individual members of the club and also of the fine activities carried on by the club as a whole They met every Tuesday throughout the year Space prohibits a detailed account of activities but in brief here is a summary: One or more members entered all of the school s athletic events, Fred Van't Hull winning city honors in football, the Lox president, Paul lenks. was All Hi-Y President; the Veterans' Hospital was visited, a sleighride and scavenger hunt were enjoyed and several “smorgasbords’ were held. • The record of the UTA HI-Y CLUB this year is one they can well be proud of. Paced by Ralph Thatcher they tied the Win-X for championship honors in football. Their fall private'' was considered an outstanding social event. Other social events were a winter-sports party at Camp Iduhapi and a wiener-roast. • SETON His are a group of girls affiliated with Seton Guild, Second Avenue South and Ninth Street, an educational and social club for young women. The West group meets on the first and third Mondays of each month to plan parties and lectures. Some units of the group work on dramatics, others on music, or hobbies. During 1937 and 1938, many girls won pins for service A dramatic skit was presented at the Christmas party at Seton Guild. CXC • Row 1: Boston. Treas.; Allen. V. Pres.; Cassidy, Pres.; Baker. Sec.

HOME AND ABROAD ,J1HE CLUB PRESIDENTS’ CLUB” is not a bona fide organization in itself, for it is composed A of the presidents of the leading clubs sponsored by the school. It is a unifying and integrating factor in promoting harmony and unanimity of purpose among the school’s clubs. At its meetings the members tell of the activities of their clubs and of what they are doing to achieve their various ends. Thus every school organization is made to feel that it is a real part of West High and not merely a single isolated factor. • Members of the WESTWARD HO CLUB are all enrolled in two schools, carrying full programs in each. One is West High School, the other The Women's College of Make Your Own Way.” Members of the Westward Ho Club recognize each other as fortunate persons who are learning early in life to stand on their own feet. The University of Hard Knocks will award them each a Master's Degree at the termination of school life. This will carry them farther than others who have not made the best of all advantages. The world envies and admires the determination and accomplishments of these girls. • The name of this club AMMILUS is indicative of its nature and purpose. The letters that form the word Ammilus are the initial letters of the words Ancient. Medieval, Modem. Indian. Latin-American and United States, and its members are recruited from the classes that study the history of those countries, eras, and peoples. There are twenty-five members in this club and Miss Palmer is its popular adviser. Several speakers appeared before the club to discuss pertinent problems this year. The club purchased a fine radio for the Social Science department and now are raising money to buy another one. CLUB PRESIDENTS • Row 1: Jaeger; Loper; Robohm; Iverson; Robbins.

C., make up one of the large organizations of the school, giving service to teachers and students, sponsoring programs, dances, and parties All executive affairs are carried on by a board of fourteen members with Miss Styer as adviser, but the service work is done chiefly by members who are working for their merit pins. About eighty of these merit pins are awarded each year. The climax of this year was the winning of the parade on Homecoming for having the most original and effective float. This term the dance is to be held at the Automobile Club. • “Intelligentsia.” Under the supervision of Mr. Schoonmaker, the NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY has taken over many constructive activities during the last year. Although left with only 21 members this year, the organization prepared an emblem which was presented at auditorium programs to advisories having highest scholastic rating. This award was made at the end of each six-week marking period. Leadership, character, service, and scholarship are primary requisites for entrance. After the semiannual induction ceremonies, a banquet is held at the Rainbow Cafe, with Mr. Schoonmaker as sponsor. Faculty advisers are Mr. A. D. Norton, Miss Ruth Grosz, Miss Marjorie Spaulding. U.

MUSIC AND ART CLUBS THE DAUBERS DAUB Xis i CLUB is one of the most serviceable dubs functioning at West High. Its aim Um °i SuuUlAte nterest in art and to give all the service possible to its school. It is not a is th °U i! ®ecause admits only the most promising and talented people of West High. This e method used to try out prospective members. Each person wishing to join is given about ree-quarters of an hour in which to exhibit his talent. The old members then judge the sketches and decide who is to be admitted to the club. • The CHORAL SPEAKING CLUB under the extremely capable leadership of Miss Sandboe will in all probability attain new laurels for West as speaking choirs are rapidly gaining wide public recognition. The members of this society are combining their efforts in striving to coordinate some of the subtler emotions and put them into their everyday speaking voices. The dub which is composed of approximately sixty active members is making, we believe, marked progress in its attempts to cultivate and develop not only charming voices but also charming personalities.

THAT'S MINNEAPOLIS! Did I hear you say that you're bored with life? (1) That nothing ever happens? That everything is always the same? Well, now, where do you live? Not in Minneapolis, or you would never say that! Why. things are never the same here. It's the most changeable city in the union. Maybe you've never looked at it in the right way. Maybe you never saw the beauty in its different natures, such as: The crunch of snow, hard and brittle, steaming breaths, the grating scrape of shovel on walk, men in red woolen scarfs and fur-lined coats, whirling winds and blinding storms, a frigid blue and white ceiling overhead, with silver moons and yellow suns, the clank of skates on ice, (2) red furnaces and low mercury, and basketball (3) crowds—that's January. Slushy ground, under black snow banks, gutters flooded with icy water, muddy tracks on sidewalks, (4) a drizzling rain, half liquid, half ice, the sky slate gray and oppressive and low, goloshes and rubbers —that's February. Bitter winds, cold and raw, blowing hats and skirts, (5) electric storms with white lightning and thunder, the sky black and heavy, hurrying people going nowhere, bucking the wind, the screech of brakes on slippery pavements and sooty snow in protected places, robins returning, later twilight—that's March. Sweet-smelling rain (6) falling on ground just turning green, the soft muddy earth that squishes under foot, jacks and bicycles, lukewarm air and rustling breezes, and the steady rhythm of windshield wipers —that's April. First delicate pastel flowers, Crocuses, and Buttercups, and Violets, soft green grass peppered with dandelions and clover, the freshness of cool rain, a warm sun, girls in white shoes and boys in shirts and sweaters, canoes and full moons, (7) picnics and baseball games, (8) early morning dew, and flags— that's May. Solid blue sky, clouds of feathery lightness, jade grass and leafy trees, warm breezes that ruffle 108 golden hair, crowded lake shores, lazy atmosphere, lovers walking hand in hand, lapping waves, bronzed swimmers, (9) surf boards and motor boats —that's June. Choking heat, dry and biting, Vermillion sun's unrelenting rays, unending run of cars, gophers and snakes, firecrackers (10) exploding with steadily increasing volume, afternoons red with heat, the beat of cold shower baths—that's July. Brown grass, sun burned and dead, dusty fields and soft tar pavement, perspiring dogs panting in the shade, children quiet from fatigue, abundance of handkerchiefs dobbing dewy foreheads, (11) — that's August. Monotony of routine once again, school and jobs, football (12) and cheering crowds and popcorn, reddening trees, ground piled high with leaves, the air rich with the odor of bonfire smoke and marshmallows and the gang of coffee boiling over an open fire—that's September. Colors dazzling and subdued, brilliant and dull, solid and spattered, air crisp and sharp, brittle leaves under foot, nipping frosts and cold fingers, pumpkins and squash and Hallowe'en witches, (13) mittens and scarfs—that's October. The stamp of hunting boots through forests, the report of bullet into the sky, (14) the first softly falling snow, foggy mornings and somber afternoons, homecomings and old eyes wet with reminiscence—that's November. Prismatic diamonds of sifted snow, glistening blindingly over the ground, vari-colored lights pouring from decorated trees through the windows of warm houses, gray smoke curling from chimneys, joy and Christmas festivity, presents, (15) and carols floating through candle-lit chapels—that's December. Twelve months, each different, each new, some perhaps a bit uncomfortably cold, or hot, or wet or dry, but each with definite characteristics, each with its own excitement, each with a different beauty— that's Minneapolis. —Shirley Cane. (Illustrations by Bill Medcalf) 109 SEVENTEEN On December 10 the treat of the first semester was presented in the auditorium This was the play Seventeen,'' an adaptation of Booth Tarkington's famous book, coached by Miss Sandboe. From beginning to end the play was a complete success, one hilarious scene following another. Dick Woollen took the part of Mr. Baxter and Audrey Lindgren took the part of Mrs. Baxter. Willie, poor love-sick Willie, was none other than Archie Martin. The picture on the left portrays a typical scene in the play. Lola, played by Mary Janet Tennyson, is saying in her most babyish baby-talk: Oh, uh.—do Floppit again! and Willie imitates her pet poodle and says. Ber-werp-werp!” So popular was the play that it was again presented after the holidays to another capacity crowd BERNICE JOHANSEN VIRGINIA WILCOX Burton Joseph Bernice Johansen Helen Swenson, (Seated) Clifford Frankson AUDREY UNDGREN DICK WOOLLEN ARCHIE MARTIN JOHN ROBOHM BIG-HEARTED HERBERT The June senior class play entitled ‘'Big-Hearted Herbert’‘ was presented in the West auditorium Friday, April 1, under the direction of Miss Joyce Gregory. The play was chosen by a group of senior representatives, who were appointed by their home room advisers. Clifford Franksen and George Fisher were the candidates for the part of Herbert Kalness, the grouchy father. Helen Swenson and Phyllis Lee portrayed the role of Mrs. Kalness. the patient mother. The elder son was represented by Terry Salt and Charles Volk, while the younger son’s part was played by Burton Joseph and Horace Hitch. Alice Kalness was characterized by Nancy Barnes and Rose Raines. Andrew, the fond lover, was represented by Edmund Stuart and Willard Swallen. Two candidates for each position were selected by Miss Gregory, one candidate playing the role in evening performance, while the other appeared in the matinee. ' Big-Hearted Herbert by Sophie Kerr and Anna Richardson, proved to be one of the most successful plays of recent years. tthuv The police raid the bikes. Raymond the Magician entertains.

The halls were crowded with cowboys and cowgirls all decked out in a gay array of typical Western costumes. Frivolity reigned. Everyone (not excluding teachers and janitor force) donned something in the way of boots, breeches, ten gallon hats, neckerchiefs, and even lassos and cap guns. Of course, the paper and felt trimmings in the school colors were not omitted. Unlike previous years, West produced a gigantic and colorful parade. Cowgirls riding fine spirited, trotting horses led the way for the many floats that followed. There were covered wagons and symbols picturing the slogan Corral Central. The West High band was there in all its glory led by our baton-twirling drum major who exhibited his skill to the spectators lining the streets. Fun ... excitement . . . decorations . . . large crowds . . . parades; all were symbolic of Homecoming and Green and White Day. WEST HI-LARITIES MARIAN OLIVER A fine monument should now be erected in honor of the successful second annual West Hi-Larities presented November 17. It was one of West's best footlight attractions and was received by a most appreciative and enthusiastic audience. Every type of talent was featured—dancing, singing, music, drama, and magic mysteries. The play, Sunset, by Slantsky, a one-act farce was presented, followed by a saxophone ensemble, an instrumental trio, and popular songs. Feats of magic and sleight-of-hand, a dance trio and a vocal duet followed by a one-act drama entitled A Message from the Dead, songs by the West High Octette, more dancing and singing—thus passed an evening of fun and laughter, a success in every sense. Miss Gregory was in charge. t % v TUST off the campus IN THE LAGOON WHY SHAKESPEARE V ROTB PLAYS Iff WESTS PHIDE HIKER: THERE ARE NO PRETTIER SCENES THAN THIS- LAKE OF THE ISLES x , PHYLLIS BROWN TO THE SENIORS --------------------- Congratulations, Seniors, and best wishes for the future.
