With- out regard for self she has gix7en freely of her time, thought, and energy for our welfare and for the success of our eOer37 worthwhile endeavor. The girls have found her, as Dean of Women, a sym- pathetic counselor and an inspiring leader. As a slight token of our esteem and of our gratitude, We, the class of nineteen hundred and twenty-three, dedicate to her time nineteenth Ooiume of tile Sequel.

A year or so ago I marched Across assembly floor, You handed me my sheepskin roll And said, Your play is o'er. Go forth and show your colors now, YVe've taught you how it's done, 'Tis you must work your lesson out Before the victory's won. YOIIFS I tiptoed out most fearfully Uncertain how to be A teaeher, when I'd always had Somebody else teach me. I squared my shoulders to the task, Determined now to win: I left my quaking doubts behind, And plunged head-foremost in. I tested out my smiling crew XVith Curtis and Binetq I socialized and projected , Made work turn into play. Our art stands out upon our walls. IVe've Studebaker .drillsg Our salt maps too come in their turn, Friend Johnson , has his thrills. VVhen little Mary Susan Jane Says aint,' and git and Seti', I glance along to Deffendall And see that he's there yet. Heredity--I see it now- Does have a. little weight. My chemistry resolves itself To H20 Soap state, XVC play Club Snatch and Jumping Iack XVe dramatized The Swans , IVe planted flowers here and there To beautify our lawns. I try to be quite dignified As Faculty people do, I'm sure you'd never think it From these few lines to you. But when my thoughts go back across The bridge which time has raised, I live again on student plane, And dream of student days. Yes, Vtiestern, 'tis a mighty task IV'zhieh you so nobly bearg 'Tis one of tireless watehfulness, 'Tis one of toil and careg But we, the class of yesterdays, Stand loyal, firm, and true, Our hopes, our aims, our victories, IVe owe them all to you.

I beseech you to ponder such things, to remain studious, to live true to your ideals so that more of us may be happy and useful. You have shown your abilityg you have demonstrated your courageg you have displayed your integrity and I assure you that your ultimate success can only be thwarted by your failure to make the most of your opportunities as they appear.

Secretary-T1'easu1'e1' HE Juniors and Seniors organized into a single class during the year 1923 and have been the first upper class to carry out to any extent social and other class activities. The membership, for the most part. consisted of alnm.ni from the two year Normal course. who had returned to their Alma Mater in order to Hnish their college course. Some, however. who had decided to take two more years before embarking on the pedagogical sea, came from the Sophomore Class. The class was ably represented in athletics and in dramatics and social activities. Its members have been among the first to boast any en- terprise that was launched by thc students, and have been instrumental in imitating many undertakings which have added spice to the life of the school. Not neglecting its scholarship because of its many outside in- terests. the Junior-Senior class has kept its standards high and its record well toward the top. The Junior-Senior party held February first. was one of the most delightful social functions of the school year. An elegant three course dinner was served in the cafeteria after which a dance was held in Society Hall, which was fittingly decorated for the occasion. Thus. as we pass from the campus, we leave a memory of loyalty to VVCStC1'l1 and an enviable record symbolized in our colors, purple and white. c. , 1923 c c 1? . 'N w , . .. .. Il H H H W I F! 3?

T1'easu1'm' ERHAPS we Sophornores should cease our labors long enough to tell something of our own history. VVhen we gathered here two long years ago, we displayed only the customary timidity and hashfulness which characterize Freshmen. VVe had few acquaintances, little knowledge of the school and its methods and ideals, and for a time we were hopelessly adrift in a strange world. VVe early developed a trait that has remained with usg namely, the avoidance of class meetings as carefully as some people do hard work. YVC contributed as best we could to the activities of the school. The beginning of this year found most of us returning to our Work, though some few did not come back and a 'few new members were added to the class. VVC had little difficulty in becoming acquainted and settling down to the duties which fall to the Sophomore class each year, Wle were fortunate in being able to begin early on our class play, A'Bunty Pulls The Strings , and our year book, and to .find willing workers for both, XYQ have given to these the best we could, feeling often that it was very little. Now the time has come when most of us must leave our school and follow various paths in life. VVe shall ever look back with pleasure to the years we have spent here and wish for Vvestern and those who work so diligently for her, all possible success and happiness. -- 1923 i i i l?2'Iz, .

Our goodly number of over two hundred .was gathered from far and near as well as from, the Academy and Macomb High School. This class will be remembered as the largest class ever in school as well as because of its great interest and participation in school activities. Many of our football and basketball men were Fresh- men. The girls, not to be outdone by the boys, participated very successfully in hockey and basketball. Those of our number who I I were not so talented as to be on the teams were certainly back of them as the enrollment of the Howling Teachers and Screaming VVidows will show. Our influence was also felt in the Forum, the 3 Green Door, and in declamatory work. Y. M. and Y. W. were represented by a large number of our class, while the Courier ben- I efitted by our help.

The more the merrier found expression in our parties. We had fun aplenty in imitating our beloved facility at the get acquainted party at Monroe Hall and we certainly got knocks and bumps at the Freshman-Sophomore party at the Rink. On tl1e whole our class influence has been felt at VV'eStern, and those of us that return next year will try to carry on the work so well started by the noble two hundred. iff Qwllorgy if - NF QF. ning pf' 9352131 Gel? 43 '51 fel..-Q HE' f?!xU.iQn -of 'v tg: at .205 we '-Yi, 23? 1923 ,mfr e .1 f.. w 3 if 1, Ju ny: QLLE11 U'-4? fri- ,AQ y Y X l ,, Y Y U Y A .Tf:,lgQ'jlf5ll nm f 'G 1-1 E l7'17: L. . ,J i r W Elf..

Life should look good to you, touched with the warm colors of aspiration, lighted by the stars of hope and made firm by the grounds of faithg and it is good. Youth is life's laboratory of experiment, the problem is to find itself and its relation to the world. Many tests fail, as is usually thought, but there can be no failure in honest endeavor, there is no disgrace in falling if we rise everytime we fall. The sapling wrenched by the storm. seems to stop growing, but it uses its growth to make itself stronger than the storm. Dis- illusionmcnt must comeg The hopes of youth fall thick in the blast. Human excellence grows slow. Life will not be hurriedg as well try to hurry thc stars. The price of culture and character is long service, to self, to mankind, and to truth. YVhoever takes his legitimate place in the world's work never loses courage. Serving others the panacea for our own ills. iVith confidence that you will meet life's experiences as men and women, and participate fairly in individual, and in teamwork, I greet you and wish you well.

St'L'7'l fll7'l-T1'l'HSll7'l?7' , l OUR years ago a group of some ninety bashful, backward students slipped into the three different doors of T'VSSllC1'Il from all parts of the Military Tract, in hopes of obtaining stores of wisdom. Moving cautiously up tl1e imposing stairway. they made their way to the Study H2111 where instructions were given for registration. Numerous questions about the location of Room -1-0 were heard whis- pered among this shy group but once they reached this desired place they were assured that they were ordinary lnnnan beings, had no need to be frightened, and were on equal footing with the older and presumably more dignified classes. lVith the aid of Miss Corbin the Lincoln Literary Society was organized where wonderful talent was displayed. The year passed quickly with numerous parties and other happy times and soon we reached the dignity of Tenth Graders when we conducted the Amateurian Literary Society with great success under Miss Hecgard's supervision. The following year when we called ourselves Elevens, both thc girls and the boys showed up brilliantly in athletics. The Academy Basket Ball Team. with four from our class, won the District Tournament at Monmouth last year. Our girls' Basket Ball Team has twice won the Academy championship. The great revelation now comes that this group of scared Freshies has become known as the prominent, self-respecting Academic graduates of this year. Their unusual dramatic ability was shown in Seventeen , which was well given on April 19. Our class has been represented in declamation, in dramatics, in band, in orchestra, in Glee Clubs, and on the Courier Board. Although busily engaged. in school work this remarkable class took time for recreation and social activities in the form of picnics, Wiener roasts, and parties. All of our sturdy class managed to struggle through these strenuous, yet eventful vears of intelligence tests, social conferences, receiving C slips, and visits to the cast otliee. This illustrious group is composed of twenty clever boys and forty bright girls. some of whom will come back next year and endeavor to help make a successful Freshman class.

Secrctary-Treas1n'e1' i w L, thc clcvens of 23, have been faithfully working throughout thc year with two definite aims in view. First, to leave behind us something that the school and its future students will be proud of. and second. to get from our attendance here something of value that will help us in our after school life. As proof of our success in our first aim, we must appeal to your own knowledge gained from your association with us. YVe feel we have succeeded in establishing a better school spirit in all our organizations and in keeping up the high standards required of a YVesterner. Then, too, a number of our enterprising girls have established a literary Club which will also help Western in the future. As a proof of our success in our second aim, we are able to present the fact that the eleventh grade is represented in every organization but one in the school, to which the class is eligible fer membership. Our clevens have taken an active part in athletics and the social activities of the school, and the Honor Roll has also held the names of a number of our classmates. YVe know all of these things will help us to be good citizens. The ideal college student is a good student, a good athlete. a leader in social affairs. and a booster for the college. Vile firmly believe that these qualities will be found in the average eleventh grader. V ff L rcnl- S 1 fl923 ,ew duly-Eiflllf , ff -2 7 ' 'IF 2.2 1 ,i,,,,... V l i E N 1: ., 5 1 svn, rc L e.

Secretary-Treasurer HEN in the course of college events it becomes necessary for the tenth grade to assume the power and station among the other classes, to which our abilities entitle us, a decent respect for the opinions of our fellow students requires that we record the assets which enable us to assume this position. WVe hold this truth to be self-evident: that we have an exceptionally good class. To prove this let facts be submitted to a candid and fair- mindcd student body. Wie have numerous prodigies of learning, as is indicated by the number on the honor roll. YVe are talented in musical lines, for we are well represented in the Glee Club, Band, and Orchestra. 'We are proficient in literary linesg we published the iVestern Courier for one week and have several reporters on the regular staff. Nor are we deficient in athletics. Our girls ranked well in the hockey and basketball tournamenls, and we have many aspirants to track and baseball. The boys do their part in upholding the class honors as is indicated by the number of men on the second basketball team and the Mercuries who fleetly circle the track. We therefore declare: That we are above the average class in pep, athletic ability and intelligence, and trust that future years will continue to prove our statement. e e e1923,d1ee- e f 1 I' any 1' N WX W E295 W 1 Efglziy-One 1923f f Eighty-Two assesses ii, ,W s as , V1 l - . , ., .:,'f ,r,-.f , . , , E, , ' ,'v:.

And it flourished and waxed large until it was composed of two score and som.e frivolous youngsters! Nay, verily, hath not Solomon in all his glory said that out of the mouths of babes cometh wisdom? And this class lacketh not of prodigies of intellect for lo, it doth contain Harlan Bloomer, Zera Hollis, and Evan Jenkins. Mason Grigsby and John Churchill have already startled the world with their memoriza- tions from Irving's Sketch Book and since Section One has written its astounding Irving Note Books, sages believe that a new era is dawning in the literary world. Verily, the time is not far distant when Richard Mercer and Dean Black will be swaying the world with their mighty orations, when Raymond Griffith, who is a 'fountain of poetical inspira- tion, will be soothing the woes of the world, when Harry Kelso will revolutionize the farming industry, when Donald Uftley, 'the famed comedian, will be entertaining millions, when Paul Fargusson will be a renowned artist, and when Gale Dailey will expound to the world the mysteries of Astronomy. Verily, this class increaseth in Wisdom until there is none equal to it in all the world. 1 , 4:' ' 11,7 , ,I Eigllly-Th Hy-l7m1r , --fv f -f- if , Y - N ' zf-3' 1. sera, ,i wiv..

M3323 f Chapter Three Training School p I lm 111' Ijiglrrly-Si.r 2777 'mi 'miie Sequel Greetings to the Training School OV' it came to pass that in the land of YVestern there was set up a millg and within the mill were a large number of millstones whose task was to rub off the outer shell of the grain which passed through the mill, and so to bring to the surface the fine kernel within the grain. And there were also appointed those who managed the movements of the millstones, and directed the course of the grain within the mill. And the mill waxed powerful as the years went by, and the stones thereof were increased in numbers even to within ten score. And it was told in the country round about that the mill did many wonderful things, so that the grain which came to it was altered in appearance and textureg the rough outside husk was taken away forever, and the useless grains were winnowed out so that only the fine sound kernels were left as the Grist of the Mill, to be sent out to feed the hungry seekers after knowledge through all the land. And lol it came to pass that as the millstones wore away the grains, they themselves lost their sharp edges and became polished and smooth, and beautiful, so that men wondered greatly at the changes wrought in the stones. And the inhabitants of the land waxed curious and came and spake to the millstones and said, Tell us, we pray thee, what hath wrought this miracle, who hath robbed thee of thy sharp excrescences and made thee good to look upon? And certain of the millstones an- SWVliI'Cd and said, Oh, most honored seekers after truth, we have been wrought upon by many grainsg they have labored diligently to effaee our angles, to smooth our rough places and to cause us to live together in social harmony and efiicieneyg but we wish to bear testimony to you and to the people of all the land that no other influence was so powerful in its effect upon us as that of the Grist of 1923.

Here we try out our talents on the unsuspecting children and decide whether teaching shall be our profession or whether we shall turn Olll' attention toward other goals. This year the students at Viiestern have greatly missed the mother of the Training School , Miss Hamilton. Her good will and sincere help will never be forgotten by former members of the College. Miss Bell is very successfully taking her place was critic of the eighth grade and her helpfulness and inspiration remind us of the same qualities in Miss Hamilton. The Training School has a different supervision from that of the past. Miss Thompson is in charge of the four 'upper grades, and 'Miss Cooper of the four lower grades. VVith tl1is change the Training School can he more easily supervised and new methods may be carried out to a greater extent than before. Something that is of interest to members of the Training School and their teachers, and which has never been undertaken until this year, is the effort to improve the health conditions of the children by serving a half-pint of milk to each pupil every morning about ten o'elock. Those children who are undcrweight are especially urged to drink their portion. A new organization of the Training School is the Parent-Teachers' Association which was started this year. Teachers and Parents meet the third Monday of cach month and enjoy programs which deal with the needs and interests of the children both at home and at school. This organization promises to be of great service ill promoting a good under- standing between parents and teachers.

Mi V-e Activities of The Training School HIS year the Training School has taken a great part in the activi- ties of the school. The three lower grades gave a very pretty operetta Little Miss Muifetn, as an cvening's performance, on April 12, under the direction of Miss Orwig. In the winter all the grades of the Training School sponsored a movie, Rumplestiltskin , and Puss in Boots . The money they obtained from this and previous movies added to the receipts from the sale of their garden products was spent for pictures for each room in thc Training School. Besides these interesting entertainments, the Training School has given several interesting plays and musical programs in Chapel, among which are the following: Third Grade .......... ....,...............

Besides questions relating to civic pride and honor in thc school life, the Council has considered the matter of eo-operating with the class officers in an attempt to promote a higher standard of scholarship by an inquiry into the causes of failure in the class work. The Council has recommended that in order to promote interest in debating and oratory, some recognition be given for this work. f Ezgl. ly-Nine ,IQZE-ii Niuely as - Q Ta 1 no -we af .FE I llc LE?l1+ Li ,TQ Chapman Clem Main Danner I-Iorrabin Maxwell Mclione Shilley France Easum McCullough Stevens The Western Courier HE COURIER, with its bit of news, advice and jest, all that variety which the learned say makes the spice of life, has been a welcome weekly visitor during the past year. Some- times it failed to appear on Friday noon, as scheduled, but its readers kindly forgave these tardinesses. An endeavor was made to issue a larger 'paper than last year, and an average of six pages for each issue was maintained most of the time. Special issues by the boys and girls of the school, and by the Tenth Grade, and the faculty, as well as football and basketball numbers, added variety and stim- ulated interest. The staff numbered about twenty-iive, a small majority of them being College students, which is unusual, as was the absence of an Academy student on the Editorial staff. All of the classes, from the infant nines to the awe-inspiring Seniors were represented on the staff. As the work is often unattractive and brings little public reward, we are glad that so great a number of students were willing to undertake it, and we are all grateful to them and well pleased with the results of their labor. ,, f1923,a , e, 7529, -, Y 515411 7 Y 'mm Sl 2 Qual ' ,, , Wi, 277,11 I V ll I l I H STAFF ' Ediiur . . . .

The Board consists of seven mem- bers, four of whom are elected by the student body, and three ap- pointed by the president from the faculty. The Board meets at the beginning of each quarter to consider requests for money from the various organizations of the school, and to make appropriations. At the beginning of the school year a general budget is planned for the yC31',S expenses. Special meet- ings of the Board are called when matters of finance present them- selves. Grganizations receiving financial support from this student activity fund are Athletic Association, Courier, VV. A. A., Y. M. C. A., Y. YV. C. A., Band, Orchestra, Home Economics Club, Oratorical Board, and Lecture Fund. The Board for 1922-23 consists of the following members: Mr. Currcns, Chairman hir. Champion, Treasurer Miss Olson, Secretary Ruth Jones Dena VVhitcscll Raymond YVhalen Paul Comer 1923 2 Y l , ,..,, -q , -,-, ,,,, Y i. Y W?

Our association purposes to strengthen the spiritual life of its members by raising the standards of living and thinking among the girls at YVestern . Realizing that we know the joy of service only through actual help- fulness to others. we directed our attention to the Orphanage. A number of committees were organized under the Social Service Committee to take charge of this work. Groups of girls went to the Orphanage on Sunday afternoons and entertained the children by telling them stories and playing games with them. Aid was given to the Orphans in a material way by sewing for them. At Christmas time the girls went with Santa Claus to brighten the hearts of the children with gifts. The Y. Vi . C. A. not only helped the Orphanage, but with the aid of tl1e Y. M. C. A. helped to put on the Student Friendship Drive, which was under the direction of Miss Margaret Quayle, a relief worker from Russia. Miss Grote, chairman of the Advisory Board, and Eva Hill, Pres- ident of the Association. attended the National Y. VV. C. A. convention at Hot Springs, Arkansas. and the sending of these delegates helped to strengthen the link that binds us with the National Association. Zelma lvear, who represented us at the Lake Geneva Conference last summer, brought many helpful suggestions for the year. Inspiration and help was given to us by our Advisory Board, and by Miss Florine Pierce, Secretary of the Central Area. The Y. VV. members feel that our association means much to every girl in school, and hope that its influence may continue to grow in the following years. as 1923Tf.. -s-iTY 1 T n it l- 1 rely-.H'i.v Hesh Dltlmev Hoyle Merlus Chapman Ingalls Mr, Bassett Hasselt Russell Miller Clem Fliimlisler Young lvfenis Christian Association I-IE present year has seen the Y. M. C. A. of Wlestern in a more thriving condition than for many years. There were several older, experienced college men who were especially interested in the association and took an active part in the HY work. VVe were very fortunate in that the president, vice president, and secrctary-treasurcr had all attended the Lake Geneva Conference last summer, and received the inspiration and vision of a bigger Illld better NYU. Early in the year the cabinet adopted the following objectives: The Young Men's Christian Association of the VVestern Illinois State Tcach- ers College is a union of students and faculty for the following purposes: l. To lead students to faith in God through Jesus Christ. 2. To lead students into membership and service in some church. 3. To promote a positive moral. social, and religious College Spirit. AL. To promote growth in Christian faith and character. especially through Bible study. as well as to stimulate well rounded development of mind and body. At least one of these objectives was attained i11 the organization of a Bible study class. Although at this writing, it is still in its infancy. it promises to be a potent factor in the College life. Closely allied with this is the change of atmosphere in the regular meetings. The men were encouraged to take part in various religious activities, such as leading devotional periods and offering prayer in public. In this way the Y is helping, as perhaps it has not done before, in producing good. all-around Christian men. ready to take their places as leaders i11 the community. ee, ,f.l,9'23 -fe 1. ee ee ee fi. . f - Y L, L ,W ,L 'E-lllfigihfiffllll x Y 71 L L , , 'Top Ilowilf. ltussi-II, Il.

The Athletic Board of Control is the governing body of the association and is composed of thirteen members chosen from the Faculty and classes. There is one representative from each Academy classg two from the Freshmang two from the Sophomoreg one from the Junior-Senior classg the Physical Directorsg and two other members of the faculty, one to act as Secretary-Treasurer. In place of regular weekly meetings the Board meets whenever there is business to be transacted. Among other things the Athletic Board approves the list of men recommended for letters in football, basketball, and track, and does much in general to encourage and promote athletics i11 the school.

Our purpose in organizing was not for the carrying out of any particular line of work but to get together for social meetings once a month and this plan has proved very successful. VW: have been especially fortunate this year in having visits from such women as Mrs. lX700lITlElll of Boston, a Home Economics specialist, and Miss Bailer, of the Federal Board of Home Economies. Miss Hess, who is head of the State Smith-Hughes lVork, also made us visit, at which time the club gave a tea in her honor. At Christmas time the club had a dinner in the cafeteria and Santa remembered all of the members. The Home Economics Department has grown considerably i11 the last two years and shows prospects for greater development in the future. RIADALINE AuN1c'r'r, President 192.3 Q , - ml -:Y -' ' .

Several beginners were added to these, and also three girls who had had band experience elsewhere. These three girls have broken the iee'.' so to speak. and it is hoped that more women of the school will take part in band work next year. At the very beginning of the year the band started practice on music which was attractive and yet not too difficult for the average performer. After the first concert of the year, which was in December, it was remarked by a number of the members of the faculty and student body that this is the best band the school has ever had. Mr. Eller. the conductor, attributes this to the fact that they have stuck'i to the class of music mentioned above and have worked hard to play it well. The organization. as well as the school in general, is proud of the fact that two of its members of last year, Dcfoe Ginnings and Howard Monk, who started their band work here two years ago, are now playing with the Regimental Band of the University of lllinois.

If he follows the direction from which the music comes, hi: would arrive at the Auditorium, and find the song birds seated there, with Miss Orwig eapably conducting the music. This year the chorus is not as large as usual so it has been impossible to do all the things that have been planned. However. this fact has not kept them from doing some very good work as has been shown in the very interesting chapel program they have given the student body this year. Most of their work has been spent on The Pilgrim Chorus , by Tannhauscr, Anchored, XVhcre The Elfins Ride , waltz from Faust, and on selections taken from the school song book.

The purpose of the Forum is to furnish training and experience in public speaking, declamation, oratory and debate. Membership is open to all students above the tenth grade. During the past year, the Forhm has twice had charge of the Assembly cxereises presenting each time a varied program of music, readings and short talks that was both interesting and enlightening. Members of the Forum have devoted much of their time this year to debate and plan to present an evening program in the spring, the chief feature of which will be a debate. The social phase of the Forum is not neglected. Once a year a reception is given thc contestants who represent VVc-stern at the inter-collegiate literary contests. The members of the Forum are greatly indebted to Mr. Hursh for thc time and energy he has spent in making the society a success. It was he who helped to organize it and his persistent efforts have kept the spirit alive and made the society an organization of which Ylfestern should be proud.

Bassett, E2 Ilites The GFEQH DOOI' HE Green Door Dramatic Club has been one of the most active organizations of YVestern. Since the change in the constitution giving 'Freshmen a chance to try out, the club has added ten new members to the twenty-three old members, besides re-instating four former Green Door enthusiasts. The club has presented The Detour, by Owen Davis, here and at Bushnell. An Old Romance, a pantomime by Louise Van Vorhis Armstrong, and in connection with the Music and Art departments, Eagerheart, the Christmas festival. Members of the club have presented at different meetings three one-act plays, Enter the Hero, The Interior, and WVhit'e Hyacinths, the latter a try-out play. One of the events greatly enjoyed by the Green Door members was their Dinner Dance, held on St. Patrick's Day. The club first enjoyed a three-course dinner in the cafeteria and between courses entered into the candle-light Waltz. From here they adjourned to the Society Hall and found a snappy orchestra awaiting their arrival. Every Green Door member agreed that this was one of their most enjoyable evenings at VVestern. The work has been very delightful under the direction of Miss Le Compte, our most able adviser, and Mary Sykes, the capable president of the organization. Much credit is due them for the success of the 1922-23 Dramatic Club. OFFICERS President . . . MARY SYKES Vice President . . . . EIIAEEN HITES Scoretary-T'r'eas'zu'cr .

On November 15th and 16th we were delighted with a series of plays presented by the Englund-Desmore Players. On XVednesday evening. Pater Nostern, by Coppee, was given as a curtain raiser, followed hy The Climax , by Edward Locke. a modern drama showing the life of a young girl who had a wonderful future in her voice. The Thursday matinee was The Marriage of Kittyu. hy Cosmo Gordon Lennox, a three-act comedy. which was enjoyed to the utmost hy the audience. It was a play full of keen wit and humor and every moment was full of interest and suspense. Thursday evening the company presented Eastern, by August Strindherg, preceded by a scene from lhseifs Peer Gynt. Miss Hilda Englund, who was formerly of the Royal Theatre of Stockholm. and has starred in Petrograd, London, Philadelphia. and New York and was featured in the Ihsen play, ill Pater Nosteru, and in Ulilastern. She gave a powerful presentation of Mother Asc in Peer Gyutn. Miss lfercedes Desmore. who most aceeptably began her stage career in Loudon, played the leading part in i'The Climaxn, and The Marriage of Kitty , and assisted Miss Englnnd in Easter . She not only possesses a charming speaking voice, but also sang very heautifully in The Climax . This series of plays was thor- oughly enjoyed by the students as well as by many of the towns- people. 1' T1 n is 2 gs ss- ss, , V 7-7 7 W , 'Ti -.171 ' ' l 1 , ?

This ancient masterpiece of literature, presented in an unusual setting. was truly wonderful. The Biblical simplicity of the book was retained and intensified by an equal simplicity of staging. The curtain and drapcries were dispensed with and the characters were revealed or eliminated hy colored lights. An intense white light added to the effect of the climaxes. Realistic flashes of lightning and pcals of thunder proelainied in awe-inspiring manner, the Divine Presence. The book has been divided by Stuart lVValkcr into a prologue and epilogue in addition to the dramatic poems. The prologue tells of the calamities which befell Job and the arrival of his comforting friends. A brief epilogue tells of the later life of Job and the rewards that came to him. The prologue and epilogue were given by two readers, the lted Narrator and the Blue Narrator, both of unusual ability. The cast proper included only six members, of wlioin Mr. Somncs was the outstanding character. Another unusual feature was the music. based on the olcl Hebrew chants. arranged by Elliott Schncck, and consisting of harp. violi11. 'ce-llo, piano, and chimes. The music was all played behind thc scenes. The play was well attended, everyone decming it an unusual privilege to see such a noteworthy performance.

Puppet or marionette shows are an old form of clrarnatie art and one which has flourisheci especially in Southern Europe. In the last few years there has been a revival of interest in puppets in this country. The puppets use-cl by lfiss Edwards and Bliss Hoppin were rag clolls about a foot high. dressed in appropriate costumes. and with very expressive faces. These figures were inanipulatecl by the hands. The dialogue was given behind the scenes by those who move the puppets. The miniature stage, setting, and curtains were all in harmony with the tiny figures. The plays given here were The Elves and the Shoemaker . The Cat and the Mouse , and the Nun's Priest's Tale , from Cliauc-er. YVC were all very glad to have the opportunity of seeing this new. yet olcl. form of draluatie art. :mired T'z1'1'lI'v 1923 in s 7 l Y... - , ,V 2 m.--..,: - f 2-ff' . . . , . il ,Q - ' Y 7-' 1 K.

Mr. Baxter, however, informs him that he will have a dress suit when he is twenty-one, and not a day sooner. Shortly afterward Johnnie VVatson whistles the gang whis- tle outside and tells Wiillie about the new girl, Lola Pratt, who is coming to town to visit May Parcher. YVillie declares, I never saw one girl in my life I'd care whether she lived or died ! But the advent of Miss Lola Pratt, or the baby-talk lady , with her poodle, Flopit, is too much for Wlillie, and puppy love springs up. A farewell party is given for Lola and the youth of Seventeen tries to win her love away from the rich and detestable George Crooper. 'When Xvillie arrives at the dance Lola has promised all her dances, so Wfillie is left to dance with Miss Boke. an unattractive wall-flower. YVillic's misery becomes more acute when Lola must leave for her train. He has not had a single dance, and his heart drops as Lola leaves, saying, Good-bye, ickle-boy-Baxter. Don't forget Lolaf, XVillie's mother comes to the rescue and tells him that after all it is the little boy inside that is going to carry him through other times harder than this. Yliillie promises his mother that he will not forget and adds.

A petition was signed by one hundred twenty men agreeing to attend every garne and sit together in a body. Novel stunts were introduced before games and during intermission to entertain the fans and to work up Il friendly rivalry between the Screaming YVidow2s and ourselves. Never before in the history of the school has there been as much school spirit and attendance as there was during this season. YVC feel we have been repaid for our effort and that the record made by our two teams this year was due, in 11 large measure, to the wonderful support given by the student body. VVhen next year comes we hope to see the Howling Teachers supporting not only basket ball but all the other branc-lies of athletics.

Athletics at Western HE lvestern supporter needs no longer to be embarrassed by a sense of the inferiority of VVesteru in Athletics, for his Alma Mater is now a full-fledged college, playing a college game. Although a teachers college is probably more handicapped than any kind of school because of the transient student body and the small proportion of men in school, we yet believe that it is better to be handicapped and win, than to ,gain our ends without effort. The half-dozen years now closing have witnessed a great quickening of athletic spirit here at VVestern. In football, basket- ball, baseball, tennis and track, we are not afraid to challenge neighboring institutions of college rank. In number of games won, and sum of points made, our record in all these events has been creditable. But this is only half the tale. The rest of us who stay at home, trying out for places on the team and keeping training are benefitted fully as much as the players themselves. Here is where the real value of athletics appears. Athletics also help to make a strong, sane community life, furnish an outlet for excess energy, and relieve the strain of the everyday grind. VVith a good name and a good reputation to uphold, YVestern athletics have a promising future to look forward 'to and one which will help to a greater and better VVestern.

Hawkes is deserving of much credit for the masterly way in which he has handled the various athletic teams during the past year. This has been the most successful year from the athletic standpoint in the history of the college and such results could not have been gained had it not been for the faithful work of Coach Hawkes. Mr. Hawkes came to Yllestern with a good record. He is a graduate of XVindham, Maine, High Schoolg did post graduate work at lVestbrook, Maine. High Schoolg graduated from the coaching school at Springfield Y. M. C. A. College, Springfield, Mass., in 1916g was coach of Minneapolis High School in 1916-19175 was i11 the army from 1917 to 1919. YVhile in the service he graduated from the Saumur, France, Oflicers' Artillery Schoolg in 1919-20 he was Government Recrea- tional Director ill Panamag from 1920 to 1922 he was coach at Biwabik. Minn. During ithe summer of 1921 he was Superintendent of Play- ground at Biwabik. Mr. Hawikes has been at WVestern only one year. but has proved himself a man of excellent character and ability: As Mr. Hawkes will be 'with us next year and we hope many years to come, we feel assured that the athletics of lllestern will continue to develop under his direction. it Hind: d 7':c'cul,x--Two e--1923. . l I 119 A - Jgpfgi -f T I, L Q1 7 y 15.-my f - f f :, T- l 5-use-Q iff: 'f M L P e, , if 17 4 J Coach Pugh IQRALD G.

Coach Pugh got his High School education at Galesburg, Illi- nois, after which he attended VVestern for two years. The next year he was a teacher and coach in the Bushnell High School. The next year Mr. Pugh spent at Bradley Polytechnic Institute in Peoria. Last year he returned to Vlfcstcrn to work for his degree and to assist in the manual training department. Jerry is a hard, faithful worker, which accounts for his success as a teacher as well as a coach. He 'will be hack next year and we feel certain that his team will be a success.

The season has not only been successful from the standpoint of the number of games NVOII. but from the benefit the team a11d the students have derived. Never before has there been so much pep and eo-operation on the part of thc students and faculty. For the first time we have had an eleven which ranked with the teams of the leading minor colleges in Illinois. ln a well-fought contest on our own gridiron. lVe-stern lost her first football game of thc season to l'lurcka's sturdy eleven. Although we have no alibi to offer, we feel proud of the showing our team made. The first half ended 0-0, but because of our lack of weight and practice. our boys failed to hold them in the last half. The game ended Eureka 15. lVestern 0. lVestern's next battle with Culver-Stockton, at Canton, Missouri, Oct. 6th, ended in a defeat of 12 to 3, lllright making our three ,points by a place kick. Lack of endurance. especially in the backfield men, may bc regarded as the keynote of this defeat. lfollowing two weeks of hard practice, VVestern's football team came to life and won their first victory. defeating the Palmer School of Chiropractic, of Daven- port. lowa. by a score of 16 to 0. The score does not tell the whole story of' the game for Yvcstcrn outplaycd her opponents in every phase of the game. The following Friday. October 28th, our luck was still with us and the heavy Augustana team. although doped to win, were given the small end of a 26-6 score on our own field. The game was ours from the start to the finish, as the boys fought hard and showed the results of practice and training. One week later, November 3, lVestern's gridiron idols journeyed to Galesburg and met the Knox Seconds. plus a number of first string men. The game was close throughoutg both teams were handicapped by a muddy field. It looked as though the game would end in a tie until Hoyle, our mighty, intercepted a forward pass and raced 85 yards for a touch-down, giving us a 6 to 0 victory. On November 18th, NVcstcrn's warriors invaded the territory of the Osteopaths at Kirksville. Missouri. Everybody predicted a walk-away for the Osteopaths, but, playing in a pouring rain .outweighed pounds to the man, Wlestcrn held the doctors to the score of 18 to 12, and the game was not decided until the very last moment of play. The next Friday lVestern defeated the strong Monmouth College team 6 to 3 on their own field. It was a hard fight but lllestern outplayed the opponents and again brought home the bacon. On Turkey Day the Purple and Gold won laurels by winding up the season with a victory over the Quincy aggregation at Gem City. lvestern went down to the river town optimistic. although aware that Quincy might spring a surprise., but none occurred and we closed them out If to 0. Although the team got a bad start by losing the Hrst two games of the season, they are to be commended upon the fact that they staged a strong comeback and lost but one other game. Several of the rnen were 11ew at football and next year with almost all of the same squad, nothing will be too hard for XVCStCl'll.

His eye for both field and foul baskets combined with his floor work helped VVestern on to victory. JERROLD INGALLS Picks , last year's Academy star, proved himself a valuable man for the col- lege team. His persisteney, sense of team work, and co-operation, together with his ability to be at the right place at the right time made him a true college player. ELVAN VVRIGHT Buck , one of last year's hardwood veterans, was a hard fighter and a difH- cult man for the opponents to make bas- kets from. He also worked in well on offense, coming down the middle of the floor and dropping in baskets. RALPH BARCLAY Bark could be depended upon to de- liver the goods. His unusual ability to jump made it easy for him to break up the shooting of the opponents and get the ball. He was especially good on follow up shots under the basket. RAYMAN MILLER Skeets Q although small, was the scrap- piest member of the whole squad. He could always be depended on when a bas- ket was needed badly. Being able to play either forward position successfully was an accomplishment which helped the team in a pinch. , l WIC lS!'?lQu-al 1 Y 7 e 1923 ORVILLE HOYLE Jack could jump center along with any of them, was a hard fighter, and a sure basket getter. FRANCIS RUSSELL Bill seemed to hit his stride this sea- son. Besides bein a uard that the ball Q g could not be taken away from, he would always ring in a basket when most needed, many times saving the day for Western. DOYLE MEDUS Hound had a cool head and a steady eye, being able to cage baskets from al- most any angle on the iloor. Although many times taller than jump them of the start. being matched against centers himself, he was able to out and give his team the chance COACH H. G. HAWKES Others worthy of mention were Bishop, Dowell, Alexander, and Pugh. Although they did not win letters they were willing and faithful workers. Much credit is due them for the success of the team.

Having l won eight out of eighteen games played, we feel that the team, although I not IOOW. is one of the best teams that has ever represented Wiestern. The season opened Dec. 15 with a trip to Eureka, where we settled accounts 1 for the football defeat by bringing home the larger end of the 18-15 score. Our next game was with La Crosse, VVisconsin Normal, Dec. 21. This was 1 y our first home game. La Crosse was on a tour of this part of the state. Wie were l . 1 completely outelassed by their one-man team, Pascover, who later was ruled 1 ineligible. In this game the final count was 37-12. 11 , On the following Friday, Jan. 19, we went to Burlington, Iowa, where we played Burlington Junior College. The game not starting until late was very 1 tiresome for our players, which probably accounts for the reason that not until the 1 last half did our men show any fast basketball. However, we came out on top, 23-13. W1 N On Jan 21. we took Quincy into camp by a score of 19-6. The feature of this 1 game was close guarding, neither team getting many shots at the basket. Jan. 23 we played Lombard College at Galesburg. The score at the ending W' of the half was close, but our men, not accustomed to playing on a large floor, found they could not keep up the fast pace set by the Olive crewt .1Ve lost, 23-11-2. 11 1' Our next home game was with Carthage, Jan. 26, in which the Cartilage boys ll took home the bi end of a 19-111 score, the fame beino' won in the last few minutes W g . fa o M of play. 11 Eureka cam1e over the next day, Jan. 27, expecting to avenge her former defeat, l but our men had her outclassed in every deparment and won by a score 2-L-19. l t . The next week, Ifcb. 6 we Jlaved Mt. Morris on our floor. Both teams Jlaved 1 . 1 l . . N rather raggedly at first, but finally Yvestern found her stride and came out winner by a 35-21 score. The followin v week end Feb. 9, Western's men 'ourncved to nincv where they fo 1 . . . v . won over Quincy College for the second time this season. The score was 23-12. Our next game was played Tuesday afternoon, Feb. 13, with Monmouth College 1 at Monmouth. The game was slow throughout, and we feel if we had the game to play over the score would be different, as it was we lost, 191-15. 1 The following Monday we played a return game with Monmouth on our own l floor. This time, in a rather close contest, the tables were turned and VVestern l won, 2-L-22. The last game of the season was played Feb. 241, at VV. I. S. T. C., with Burling- 1 ton Junior College. VVe finished the season in great style, winning by a score of 29-13. All the subs were given a chance and they did some good work, showing what they were capable of when called to action. As this closed our basketball season, which all in all was very successful, our attention in the spring quarter has been turned to track and baseball. l One Hundred' Tliirly-Four i , aa-, 1 9 2 3 if f. 1 if 'f' - ii The Snag url Mg' 2 'Y-' l , I , + i December 15 ........ ..

ALBERT LINDSAY t'Stud was a good center usually get- ting the jump on his opponents. His hard fighting and ability to make baskets made him a valuable man both on offense and defense. He will be missed very much next SCHSOII. GEORGE WELLS 'tDick was a heady all around man, able to play a good game at either guard or forward position. This is his last year in the Academy. PAUL COMER Comer was a good guard with plenty of scrap, being quick to get the ball before his opponent had a chance, which gave our machine the advantage of a quick start.

His excellent floor work made him a very valuable man. He graduates this year. MORRIS HESH XVe can boast that no opponent could out-jump our center Hesh,i' and at shoot- ing baskets he was not slow.

From the very start success seemed to be in their hands and they proved to be one of YVestern's strongest teams. They started the season off early by playing Augusta, Friday, Dec. 8. Although both teams played rather ragged ball, the Academy easily outclassed the Augusta lads and won by a score of 22-1-1. The following Saturday, Dee. 16, our boys kept up the good work and Bushnell. proved an easy victim to the count of 31-8. The next Tuesday, Dee. 19, YVestern's Academy five defeated Industryls tossers here on our floor. The game was a fair display of good tight. Industry, although receiving the small end of a 33-17 score, played a good game, but the Academy played still better. ' On Dee. 22, our basket cagers ourneyed to Cam-p Point. The first three quar- ters the game looked undecided, but in the final period of play our offense machine got started and we finished up in good form, defeating them 21-16. The Academy five next went to Bushnell, Dec. 27, for the return game and easily conquered the railroad lads to the tune of 39-18. O11 Saturday, Dee. 30, our boys went to Peoria and met Spaulding Institute. who were touted as a team to be feared, but the Purple and Gold came up to their old-time form, and Peoria was downed, much to their surprise, by a score of 28-19. The following week end the fast Academy tossers easily defeated the Aledo quintet on our home floor. The Academy had fast team play at times which showed up brilliantly against Alcdo's frail opposition. The final score was 36-8. The next week end Coach Pughls undefeated cagers journeyed to the T'ri-Cities for a two-day trip. On the first night, Friday, January 12, they met the Rock Island lads, who were rated as a fast, aggressive team, and completely outclassed them. giving them the small end of a 20-16 score. Ausy was going like a house aHre and made all twenty of our points. On Saturday night they were pitted against the fast Moline tive and due to over confidence let victory, which really belonged to them, escape. They lost, 15-13. The next YVednesday night, January 17, the team made up for lost time and humiliated Good Hope on our own floor by a count of 50-23. The following Friday, January 19, our boys visited Canton and were defeated in one of the best games witnessed on the Canton hardwood this season. Throughout the entire game the score see-sawed back and forth, the Academy being in the lead several times, and it was not lmtil the last four minutes of play that the Canton men got any extra points. Then a Canton man made one of those long, lucky shots, throwing a basket from tl1e other side of our foul line. The game ended shortly after, we being on the small end of a 2-11-21 score. The next game was with our old rivals, M. H. S., YVednesday, Jan. 23. Fans looked forward to this game with great anticipation, for both quintets had been going strong. But the old jinx seemed to be on our trail and before one of the largest One Hundred Tlrirtx :Nine ,7 - ,, ,'m, ' - 2- Y Y. 7 -7 - fr' .. ...-.1 ,y - -- f r P. f V 'X .ue ,, f il 1 -1' ' - nas' , crowds ever gotten together in the H. S. gymnasium, the Academy met defeat by the narrow margin of five points. The game was close throughout, ending 21-16, in their favor. For the second time of the season, Saturday, Jan. 27, the Acads. defeated Good Hope, over there. The score, 2-1--16, was closer than we expected. The team next journeyed to Industry Tuesday, Jan. 30, and being handicapped by a small gym, were only able to win by the close margin of 1-L-13. On a larger Hoor we feel the score would not have been so close. XVcdnesday night, Feb. 6, Pugh's cagemen again went down in defeat before M. H. S., to the count of 37-21. The game was very ragged throughout, and the ofiiciating was not up to standard. YVilson's five deserve much credit for the splendid floor work they displayed. On the following Ifriday, Feb. 9, Vfestern journeyed to Augusta. where they easily gained a victory by a score of -L8-23. The next night. Fcb. 10. our five met and easily defeated on our home floor, the Camp Point H. S. tosscrs. Our reserves were used in the game and showed up well. The final score was 'LG-17. i Next came our Annual Invitational Basketball Tournament, in which 32 teams were entered and divided into two divisions. A and B. The Academy being in the A division tirst drew Colchester. who proved an easy victim, and we ousted them out by a score of 31-13. This put the Academy against Peoria, who had the smoothest working five of the tournament. Our defense was equally as good as theirs, but we failed to connect with as many baskets as they did, so lost the game, 27-1-L, which also eliminated us from the tournament. Although we lost, our me11 fought hard, doing their best to uphold Xvesternis honor, and we feel proud of them. Peoria's coming to the end of the tournament without defeat helps make our loss seem less bitter. In between tournaments a game was scheduled with Aledo, at Aledo. It proved to be a minor engagement as far as winning was concernedg however, it helped give our boys coniidence for the District Tournament, in that our machine showed some fast team work, shutting Aledo out. 35-18. Our last battles were in the District Tournament which was held at Bushnell, March 12. As far as dope goes, it was figured that the Academy and Macomb High school were to take first and second places without much trouble. the exact placing of the two teain,s to be decided in the final game of the tournament. The Academy hoopsters started the ball rolling by defeating Colchester 29-22. This matched us up with La Harpc, who also proved an easy victim, for we defeated them 30-20 usinfr mostlv second strino' men. 5 C' -v F! By defeating I.a Harpe we were next matcliedagainst the small Prairie City aggregation whom it seemed we could not help but defeat, thus assuring us first or second in the tourney. But again jinx hovered around our basket, and our mighty cagers, a little over confident, could not connect with the hoop and before they woke up the impossible had been done, Prairie City had given us the small end of a 12-1+ count. Needless to say they were as much surprised as everyone else. Macomb High School, also playing in hard luck, were beaten by Avon. So it Om Ilmrdred Forty lggjlwft 'f 7' M J 4 . LA E1 'fwY', N f ,ffffh remained for the two Macomb teams to iight it out for third place. Again they were victorious over our hoys. although they won but by a very narrow margin. The Html tally was Academy 2-1-, M. H. S. 29. This was the last game for the Aeacls. In concluding. it is the feeling of all that it has been one of the most successful seasons on the hardwood that we have ever had 'uid no little Jrxise is l tl b , , ., . 1 : .' tue IC oys who fought so hard for Old XVCSlIK'1'IlU.

It not only afforded opposition for the Academy first team, but it took some of the load off from their elder brothers by playing several of their minor games. Hesh is to be congratulated on the strong type of team he turned out.

YVf. I. S. T. C., Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, February 15, 16 and 17, was in many respects better than any of the preceding tournaments. Thirty-two teams entered and were divided into two divisions, A and B, on the basis of the enrollment of their respective schools. Those having less than 105 students were placed in thc B class and those over that number, in the A class. Excitement ran high in the opening game at one o'cloek Thursday afternoon when Blvaston won over Good Hope, 18 to 17, on a frcc throw, after two over-time periods had been played. The elimination process then had started and team after team fell into the losers schedule, which. unlike previous years, 'did not allow the losers to play for higher stakes than third place. The Academy easily defeated Colchester ll'1 the first game, 24- to 13, with Simp- kins getting four fields for his band. This brought the Academy against Peoria, who had already defeated M. H. S. and hope ran high for some sort of a miracle to happen in that game, which was played at 7 o'clock Fridav evening on the Col- lege floor. The first quarter the score was- fairly close, but little bv little the speedy J and accurate Ieoria quintet edged ahead and at the final whistle the score stood 27 to 1-1' in their favor. Our men fought as we have never seen them this season, and although they lost the game, they did their best and fought hard for VVester11's honor. Peoria had our men outclassed i11 many ways, which made the defeat seem less bitter. This game eliminated the Academy from the tournament. wo iours e ore IC 'na session on faturdav ni ht. the crowd befran to ather T l b f tl fi l S . , ,O i11 the gymnasium, and although neither local team was contesting for first honors, interest in the meet did not wane. Before the Bluffs-Avon game every seat and every bit of standing room was filled by the anxious crowds. In the finals Avon met Bluffs first and ca1'ried away first honors for the B class by a score 'of 27 to 1-11. Macomb High outclasscd the plucky Trivoli five next with a score of 45 to 17 for third place in the tournament. They were the winners in Losers' Schedule in each division and they played for the third place. The big game of the evening was Peoria's victory over Canton, by the score of 30 to 22. Canton put up a strong fight, but Peoria had the edge on the Fulton County lads and once again fthe first honors went to Peoria Central High School, who had. it must be admitted, an unusuallv strong basketball team, one which should carry them far toward the state chamzpionship. The following schools were represented this year: Bushnell, lndustry, Canton, Knoxville. Farmington, La Harpc, Abingdon, Cuba, Peoria, Macomb, VVestern Academy, Colchester, Hamilton, Bowen, Rushville, Lewiston, Bluffs, Sherrard, Prairie City, Oneida, Adair, Seaton, Ipava, Kcithsburg, Avon, Trivoli, Bardolph, Mcredosia, Plymouth, Kirkwood, Elvaston, and Good Hope.

The Awakening of Spring was portrayed by graceful, rhythmic movements. First appeared the Spirit of Spring, who called to sleeping Nature. In response came the delicate Spring Breezes, the Rain and the beautifully colored Rainbow, followed by the VVood Sprites, who repre- sented the awakening forest. The March VVind followed and then came other signs of spring: the Easter Rabbits, Bluebirds, Robins, and Youths and Maidens in folk dances. Next came the long, ugly VVorm, which crawled by and then spun itself into a cocoon. Then came the lovely flowers: Buttcreups, Bluebells, and Roses. The final awakening of life appears with the bursting of the cocoon and tl1e entrance of the Butterfly, who dances among the flowers.
