Page Twenty-five Class History Four years ago in the rising of the harvest moon the tribe of the hill and the tribe of the valley met at the foot of the bill clamoring for entrance at the big lodge. The other three tribes of the big lodge held a feast in honor of the two tribes who now were united. The new tribe held a pow-wow and chose Brave Gage as their chief and the fair maiden Ord as assistant. Maiden Sellers was the chief scribe and Black held the wampum pole. For nine moons the new tribe battled with ignorance on the happy hunting grounds. Through all these battles Squaw Johnson led the battle. For three long moons the tribe of the hill and the valley rested. Then at tin Big Lodge tin tribe again held their annual pow-wow, this time chosing from their number the Brave Warrior Williams as their Chief and Maiden Copleand to assist him while the chief scribe and wampum holder was conferred upon the young Warrior Baris. Again the tribe went forth to battle and again returned with the scalp of ignorance. In the sham battles between the tribes this tribe also took a few of the honors. After a rest of three moons the tribe again prepared for battle. This time a more experienced tribe went forth and wandered to harder fields to conquer. In the big pow-wow of the season Maiden Good was chosen to lead the tribe and warrior Gage was her assistant. Warrior Broady held the wampum pole for the tribe. The tribe of the hill and valley gave the tribe now leaving the Big Lodge a feast in the spring of their third year at the big lodge. In the rising of the fourth harvest moon since the tribe of the Hill and Valley had come to the Big Lodge the big pow-wow was held and Gillilan, the bravest Warrior, was chosen to lead the tri S e. Maiden Stewart had the honor of being assistant and the fair W illiams was scribe and wampum holder. This is the tribe’s last year at the big lodge and they will go forth into the world a better experienced tribe than the frail warriors who had started to attend the big lodge four years ago. As Braves and Maidens leave the big lodge they leave only the kindest thoughts behind and will highly recommend the big lodge to all who wish to attend . —REX GAGE Pape Twenty-six Senior Class Prophecy As I was sitting by tho fireside dreaming, one cold, wintry night, a very remarkable tiling happened. I had not been dozing very long until some strange elf of fairyland tapped me upon the shoulder: “ 1 am tlu1 fairy, Good Fortune,” said the wee one, “Make one wish which you desire and it shall be granted.” “You are .just the person I have been longing for,” 1 replied, “ Do picture for me the Senior Class of 19:22 as they will be in 1928.” “All right,” said the elf, “close your eyes and we are off to fairyland.” When 1 opened my eyes 1 found myself in a dark, gigantic forest. Between two mammoth oak trees a curtain of ferns was stretched. Upon moving closer to the screen these scenes or persons stood out plainly. Ollie Hayes was conducting a class of thirty pupils in a large city school. “She married Chester Combs not long ago,” said the small elf. “Prof. Combs was unable to shoulder tbe burden of household expenses, so Ollie is helping him out.” Suddenly the scene changed and 1 found myself looking upon a busy newspaper office. Many stenographers were seated in the room, at desks, pecking away at typewriters. “Mr. and Mrs. Varro Clark manage this newspaper,” said the small voice. “Their paper is called the ‘California Whirlwind.’ Mrs. Clark, nee Klain Williams, is most of the office force.” 1 recognized Nettie Conner, Karina Klein, Minnie Webber and Chrstina Foyt at the desks, seemingly happy under the direction of their employer and former classmate. An office door stood out plainly in the next picture. Engraved in gold were these letters upon the door: Gage, Broady and Brown, most prominent lawyers in Chicago. The scene following this was a stage setting. Colored lights sent iridescent hues out into the forest. Behold, who should come out into this beautiful coloring but four beautiful dancing maidens, whom T recognized to be my classmates, Audrey Milam, Goldie Mayer, Marguerite Miner and Hollis Vanderford. “Wilbur Maclay, James Nav-smith and Kenneth Watkins are tho managers of ‘The Famous Ones’,” explained the elf. “Audrey is now Mrs. Kenneth Watkins and Hollis, Mrs. James Naysmith. The Honorable Wilbur seems to be a confirmed bachelor.” A pretty home scene appeared next. Dinner for six was being served at the home of the Reverend and Mrs. Wylie May. Mrs. May, nee Mary Sellers, was a charming hostess. The guests present were: Dr. and Mrs. Uvnn Paris, Mrs. Paris, nee Bessie Gillan, and Judge and Mrs. Roye Mayer, Mrs. Mayer, nee Mary Rohrs. Wylie seemed to have gained great waelth for many servants were seen moving to and fro, and the furnishings of the home were of tin very best. A butler, whom I recognized as Earl Rowen, was taking orders from his employ- Papre Twenty-sev n er and giving them to the other servants in a dignified and scrupulous manner. Next 1 saw an orchestra, consisting of six of our classmates, namely: Mrs. James Gillilan, nee Lois Ord, piano; Eugene Perry, violin; James Gillilan, banjo; Merle Irvin, clarinet; Charles Wrightsman, flute, and Harlan Whitwell, drums.' They were hol ling a New York audience spellbound. Garland, Merle and Charles had tired of the life of tin Tillers of the Soil and had discovered their wonderful musical talents long ago. A pretty little studio was the next picture. Beautiful oil paintings were upon all the walls. At tin easel 1 recognized the famous artist, Madame Broady, nee Lucile Harris. John, at the farther end of the room was adoring her pictures, in his dreams only, for Oh! how comfortable the sofa was after a hard day of work as a “most prominent lawyer. ’ ’ Maude Stewart, 1 recognized in tin next picture, seated at a large desk, busily writing. “She is a remarkable authoress now,” stated the elfin man. “She has gained great riches from her writings on “The Importance of the Toothless Comb.” Margaret Moron, famous leader of the Ladies’ Ku Klux Klan of the West was next shown to me. She seemed to be standing at flu mouth of a cave. She clapped her hands twice and two white figures appeared bearing her robe. Placing the robe over her head she departed from sight down into the cave. The two white ghost like forms stood staring after her. Suddenly, and as if from nowhere, two other white figures appeared. The white robes of the figures disappeared and the four phantoms changed to life-like forms. Surely it could not be—but yet it was—our daring classmates: Frieda Curtis, Josephine right, Rosetta Naysmith and Lillian Hylton. Two great white birds were the only things detectable in the next picture. Closer and closer they came, as if they were going to alight. Down, down, down they came. They were airplanes of course, and it seemed as if a race was on. There was, and tin result was a tit of the very closest kind. Two feminine looking pilots jumped from the planes, who were no other than the two widely famed American aviatreces, (Curly) Matilda Coeur and Naomi Rains. The girls were competing for the highest honor, but their ability seemed to lx so well matched that the races always resulted in a tie. The next scene lay in a hospital. Row after row of white beds was seen. A doctor and white clad nurse entered tin ward. Certainly she was no other than our classmate, Erma Good. “The doctor with her is her husband,” said the elf. At this time another nurse entered the room. What—she resembled myself. It really seemed too good to be true but it was. I pinched myself to see if 1 were asleep. Sure enough, I had been. The fairy had flown and I was left with the tumbled aircastles at my feet. —MONA BLACK.

Page Forty Junior Class History Once upon a time in the Land of Learning was a class of people called .Juniors. They were perhaps the noblest and most learned of their time but sad to relate only the .Juniors realized this. This class was called upon to fight a battle, the battle that every class must fight. In order to be more successful in this battle leaders were chosen as follows: Miss Nelson, Queen; .Julius Liess, Commander-in-Chief; Il«la Schriefer, Vice Commander, and Isabelle Snyder, keeper of the wondrous wealth which the Juniors had accumulated. Now in this Land of Learning were some very strong people who delighted in showing their prowess in throwing about a great ball of pigskin. This they called basket ball. Some of the giant Juniors who did this were: First Team— Dayton Maclav, Howard Ferneau, Ches-tei Combs; Second Team—Kenneth Davis. First Team, Girls—Ilda Schriefer, LaVeta Hanlon. Also, there dwelt in this realm, people who were so endowed with intelligence that they competed with people from other Land of Learning. In their language, this was called “ Debating.” So intelligent were the Juniors that two of their number were called upon to be in this ‘‘Debating Team.” They were Isabelle Snyder and LaVeta Hanlon. So it came to pass that after the battle was won a great banquet was held. This banquet exceeded any that had ever been given. The banquet was a great success and every Junior felt that the battle had not been fought in vain but they also felt they owed their success to the wonderful ability of Miss Nelson, their Queen. —MYRA BIGGERSTAFF ’23. Page Forty-one Page Forty-two SOPHOMORES Page Forty-three Page Forty-four SOPHOMORES SOPHOMORES Sophomore Class History The Freshman Class of last year was a very bright class, green and otherwise, so of course the Sophomores of this year are still monuments along the line of brightness. We may not rival our own national statue of “Liberty Enlightening the World,” or even the head lights of a Missouri Pacific engine, but we are certainly a “bunch” of lucifer matches—fifty-three in number. Our torch bearers are: Miss Morse .....................................Sponsor Mary Cooper ..................................President Pauline Rohrs.............................Vice President Alberta Grandy...................Secretary and Treasurer As members of the present Sophomore class, we have extended every effort to do our share toward making the various social events of the year a success. We helped with tin Freshman reception, and the night before had an all Sophomore party and renewed our childhood days by dressing as “kids.” In athletics we are well represented. On the football team we shine through the good work of John Boyd, John McKnight, Wesley Martgan, Walker Admire, Jassen Foyt, Carrol Curtis, and Bertie Flack, the captain-elect of next year’s team. On the basket ball teams we gleam through the playing of Margaret Gillan, Helen Frary, Grace Watkins and Ada Harmon on the girls’ team, and Bertie Flack, John Boyd, and Carrol Curtis on the boys’ team. At one of the basket ball games we sold popcorn and on another occasion held a candy sale, the proceeds of which went to make a happier Christmas for the poor of Auburn. This is the only class which has ever extended its school efforts in this way, the entire credit of which is due to our beacon light and sponsor, Miss Morse. As a memento of “the best Sophomore class ever,” we are leaving a picture, “The Silver Moon,” to be hung in the high school. —CHRISTINE COTTt )N.

The green, however, has disappeared, and we are fast arriving at the stage of our upper classmen, for they are merely green grass turned to hay. A few weeks after school began we elected: Miss Johnson................................Class Sponsor John Harmon......................................President Sutton Wright...............................Vice President Clyde Wiser........................Secretary and Treasurer Martha Hughes..................................Yell Leader About the first of October, the upper classmen gave a reception for the freshmen. After eating worms and pledging ourselves as slaves to the upper classmen, we felt we were truly students of Auburn High School. Our first class party was held in the gymnasium, October 7, 1921, which was. attractively decorated with the freshmen colors, olive green and white. The refreshments also carried out the color scheme. All enjoyed the evening, playing some very interesting games. During Better English Week, March 13 to 17, our English classes gave an entertainment, consisting of our dialogues. We were represented in athletics by Cleo Kipling and William Armstrong who played on the second basket ball team. Three freshmen girls, Irene Andrews, Martha Hughes, and Alberta Kearnes entered in the Declamatory contest, given March 24, 1922. We are very proud of the fact that Alberta took second place. Our last class party was held on March 31, 15)22, in the form of an April Fool’s party. Jokes were played, and all had a jolly time. Miss Johnson has made this year a very pleasant one, and we take this opportunity to express our appreciation for her efficient leadership. —WAITIE TI1URL0W. Page Fifty SCHOOL ACTIVITIES Page Fifty-one Student Council The student council was organized this year to (ill the long felt need of some organization to represent the students. By this organization the students can place their side of the question before the faculty. Perhaps the most important purpose of this council is to encourage school spirit and foster all incentives that will lead to the betterment of the school as a whole. They have taken an active part in the management of all branches of student activities, including debates, programs, etc. It is composed of the four class presidents, the four class sponsors, the students at ‘tin head of the various other organizations in high school, including athletics, and the principal of the high school. —JAMES GILLILAN, ’22.

W. C. A. The V. Y. (’. A. of our high school is an organization started three years ago. It is but one small link in a long chain reaching into almost every country of the world. Wo now have about forty-five members and are prospering rapidly. At Christmas time all of the gills contributed something to a collection of food, clothing, and hooks, that the Welfare Society was gatliei ing for tin poor people of tin town. The women were very grateful for the large amount brought in by our club. The Saturday afternoon before Master the girls gave an Master egg hunt in the city park for tin kiddies of the primary and first grades ot Athens and Antioch. There were about fifty children and all had a good time. On that same afternoon (lowers were sent to the patients at the Auburn Hospital. We have four advisors that are really interested in the V. W . work and have had experience along that line. Miss Adah Bath has been an advisor ever since the club began and we feel that we could not get along without her. Miss Esther Blankenship, the normal training teacher, just came the last vear hut she has certainly proved her worth to us. Miss Mary Gillan has been an advisor for about three years. As head of the social committee she is invaluable, always on hand to do her share. Miss Edith Gilliland took up the work last year as head of the service connnittee and was a great help while she was with us but she resigned about the middle of this school term and Mrs. Cooper Ellis took her place. Mrs. Ellis had been active in college Y. W. C. A. and has been a great help to the club. Besides having good advisors the Y. W. has a good group of officers. For this year they are: President..... Vice President Secretary..... Treasurer ...

Two more girls will be sent this summer. The meetings held this year were very interesting. Mr. llowe talked to us at one meeting. Other speakers through the year were. Mrs. Willis, Miss Mitchell, Miss Blankenship, Miss Perry, Miss Well-hausen, and Miss Erma Good. During the month of February, character study from the Bible was taken up. The characters for discussion were: Joseph, Jonah, the two Marys, and Esther and Jezebel. We are planning to give a picture show at the Courtsquare theater soon, “The Healing Hand.” We are also planning a Mothers’ and Daughters’ banquet. The Saturday before1 Mother’s Day we shall sell flowers. —ILDA S(T1 KIEFER ’23. Page Fifty-seven DEBATING Page Fifty-eight Debating A debating class with Miss Nelson as instructor was organized at the beginning of the second semester. Six members of the class were selected to participate in the preliminary debate and of this number Eugene Perry, LaVeta Hanlon and Isabelle Snyder won places upon the regular debating team, with Minnie Webber as alternate. The question for debate as given by the Nebraska Debating League was: “Resolved, that the Movement of Organized Labor for the Closed Shop Should Receive the Support of Public Opinion.” Results of Debates March 1—Auburn versus Humboldt at Auburn. Humboldt represented the affirmative side of the question and Auburn the negative. The decision of the judges was two to one in favor of Auburn. March 15—Auburn versus Pawnee City at Pawnee City. Pawnee City supported the affirmative and Auburn the negative side of the question. Auburn won by a decision of two to one. The Auburn debaters were accompanied by Misses Nelson and Welhausen, Supt. Nelson and Mr. Johnson. March 31—Auburn versus Beatrice at Beatrice. The chaperons were Miss Nelson and Miss Wellhausen. The party was entertained royally and enjoyed the trip very much. They felt that they had profited by their experience, although they did not win the debate. April 13—Auburn versus DeWitt at Auburn. Auburn supported the affirmative and DeWitt the negative side of the question. The decision of the judges was two to one in favor of Auburn. The success of the debaters was largely due to the tireless efforts of their coach, Miss Nelson, and to the splendid co-operation of the debating class.

The public has been very good to support the organization. Saturday, December 31, the girls sold pins for the Salvation Army and made over fifty dollars. They also assembled food sufficient for a dinner and presented it to one of the needy families at Christmas time. The members have planned to have several hikes and camping trips this summer. The Camp Fire is a national organization and its work for girls is of a character similar to the work for boys in tin Boy Scout organization. —FRIEDA CURTIS. Page Sixty-two Page Sixty-three Page Sixty-four GLEE CLUB Glee Club ruder the direction of our efficient music teacher, Miss Latta, the Girls’ Glee Club lias done excellent work. This year Lois Orel lias been the accompanist. The Club with the aid of the ward school children presented “Wedlock in Fairyland,” at the Rex theater with great success. The girls have sung before the assembly several times.

It is composed entirely of Seniors, with the orchestration as follows: Piano—Lois Ord. We feel that we have been especially fortunate in our selection of a piano player. Lois lias repeatedly proved her ability along this line. Violin—Eugene Perry. We were organized with more violin players, but Eugene is the sole survivor. This fact speaks well for his playing. Cornet—Kenneth Watkins. This is Kenneth’s fourth year in the orchestra, and it is not necessary to say more. Banjo—Janies Gillilan. lie’s a mean banjo picker, too. Drums—Wylie May. Another old member who is thoroughly capable of elucidating the elements of music. Lp to date the orchestra has only made its appearance twice, on the occasion of “Wedlock in Fail-land,” and at the declamatory contest, but it seems that it was thoroughly appreciated both times. —JAMES GILLILAN. Page Sixty-six LITERARY Page Sixty-seven Better English Week r ; Bettor English Week was observed in the Auburn Schools March 13 to 17. Members of the different classes made posters and everyone did bis best to speak correctly. Several of the Freshmen presented sketches showing the advantage of good English in obtaining a position. Students of the various English classes, directed bv Miss Morse, gave two plays, “Bitter English Week” and “The Trial for the Murder of the King’s English.” On Thursday afternoon Mrs. Grandys Public Speaking Class gave “A Teachers’ Meeting,” impersonating tin high school faculty. The Public School Music Class, under the direction of Miss Blankenship, worked out a program of unique selections composed by members of the class, showing the need of careful speech. Student and faculty members alike think Better English Week was a great success and are striving to make every week “Better English Week.” —FRIEDA CTRTIS ’22. “Better English” Place: Heaven. Time: Imm°diatelv after “Better English Week.” Characters: Curtain reveals St. Peter pondering over his great book, and Gabriel busv polishing the moon, stars, and sun. St. Peter Hooking n� b “Gabriel, what’s tin cause of all the disturbance on the earth this week?” Gabriel: “()1 ! tbev’ve been having ‘Better English Week’ at the Auburn High School.” St. Peter: “Whose idea was that?” Gabriel: “The pupils seem to think from the reports I’ve heard that it is another one of the teachers’ silly schemes for tormenting them.” St. Peter: “That so?” (Knock is heard). “Well. Gabriel sc 0 what awaits without the Pearlv Gates.” Renewed pounding is heard.) Gabriel (Hobbling over to tbe door): “Who seeks admittance to this Heavenly realm?” Voice (without): “It’s me.” Et. Peter (looking up): “What is it Gabriel?” Gabriel: “Sounds like the president of the Senior Class of Auburn High School.” St. Peter: “Show him in.” (Enter James Gillilan, who is welcomed by St. Peter. Gabriel presents him with a halo and a golden harp.) Page Sixty-eight St. Peter: “I was afraid Jim, tkat you’d never live through “Better English Week.” James: “(Josh, I was scared stiff myself.” (Second knock is heard.) St. Peter: “Gabriel, do your duty.” Voice (without): It’s me.” St. Peter: “Who is it this time, Gabriel?” Gabriel: “It’s the captain of next year’s foot-ball team.” St. Peter: “Welcome to Heaven, Flack We’ve had a pretty hard time getting along without you here. (Gabriel presents Flack with wings.) Flack: “1 ain’t got no speech ready this time.” (Third knock is heard). St. Peter: “That sounds like a woman’s voice, Gabriel, go and see who it is.” Gabriel: “Well we need some women up here, don’t we? We seem to be short this fall, and I’m afraid Gillilan and Flack, here, wouldn’t think it was Heaven without a girl or two. Who seeks admission to this Heavenly realm ?” Voice: “It’s me.” Gabriel: “It’s Naomi Rains, president of the Y. W. C. A. at the Auburn High School.” St. Peter: Show her in. Welcome to Heaven. (Gabriel pre- sents crown of stars.” Naomi: “Who seeks admittance to this Heavenly realm? Voice: ”It’s me.” Gabriel: “That sounds like Ilda Schriefer. Shall I let her in:'” St. Peter: “I should say so! She’ll be a jewel at hanging out the sun, and taking in the stars and the moon.” Enter Ilda. Gabriel hands her a scepter. Ilda: “Thanks. It shore seems great to get away from that Better English stuff. 11 shore got old. Now we have got to Heaven we ain’t got to say nothin’ right no more.” Last knock is heard. Gabriel: “Who seeks admittance to this Heavenly realm?” Precise voice: “It is 1.” (Students show fear. Huddle together.) St. Peter (in great agitation): “It’s that English teacher from Auburn High. Don’t let her in. (Door is closed in teacher’s face.) Great hilarity among students. They dance about, throw up halos, stars, then shake St. Peter’s hand, saying in concert: “This sure is Heaven. ’ ’ Page Sixty-nine Two-Sided Episode in the Life of a Freshman One day a freshman when asked to write a story on “A Two-sided Question” wrote the following: A couple of weeks before 1 started in at high school I told ma 1 wanted a suit with long pants. All the other kids was gitten’ them, so after she and Dad and my big brother had talked a long while about ;t, she dually told me 1 could Lave it, and that we would get it the next day. When ma and 1 went to pick out a suit we couldn’t agree, but we finally decided on a blue serge, and we went home. As soon as 1 got there, 1 beat it up-staiis and put on the suit, pants and all. W hen I was all fixed 1 came down staiis, and ma, she said, “O, my baby boy, how much like a man you look,” and lot of other tilings 1 can’t remember. Dad he kinda grinned and said, “Well, we have a new man at our house,” and my big brother said, “Yes, I s’pose he’ll be wearing my clothes all the time now.” 1 felt pretty mad at that so 1 went outside and who should 1 see but Fete and Slim and a wnole lot of others playin’ leap frog. They all come around me and Pete said, “ Where’d you get the longies?” “ Is your dad home ?” 1 told ’em, “ No,” and decided to go down to the show. When 1 got to a candy store I thought i would get some candy, but then I decided not to since I was a man and shouldn’t be so childish as to eat candy on the street. 1 finally got some anyway and went on down the stieet toward the show. When 1 got there, I put my dime on the counter but the cashier said, “C’mon now you can’t get in on a child’s ticket; you’re no baby.” Then he began to look at my pants. 1 didn’t know what to say and I had no more money with me so I picked up my dime and went home. That was the first of a series of embarrassing situations caused by my long pants. I couidn’ climb trees, or play marbles or do hardly anything for fear of getting my pants out of press and in a few days 1 had decided that there was a good and a bad side to suits with long-pants, and dad, he said, “Look here, my still small hoy, it takes more’n long pants to make you or any other boy a man.” A Modern Ophelia A Scene from Shakespeare’s Hamlet Revised by M. B. and E. W. Exit dear brother. Enter Polonious (Paw). Polonius: What was your brother talking to you about ? Ophelia: “Oh well, if you insist, it was about “my man” Hamlet. Polonius: “My man!” The ideal! I’ve heard you’ve been pretty thick with him here lately. Is that true? Page Seventy Ophelia: Yes, if you lamp it that way, lu lias taken me quite a few places. Polonius: Now, listen here young lady what is the meaning of this? You needn’t----- Ophelia: Why, father dear, according to Webster the meaning of “tins” would probably be something referred to, that is— Polonius (angrily): Ophelia! Don’t be impertinent. If 1 see that infant on these premises again 1 'il call our Meplustopheies (the bull dog) and when your darling reaches ins anode ne won t he able to nag a hand-car. And what's more i don’t want to see you receiving any love epistles from him either, l on dappers make me sick. Ophelia: 1 ou wouldn't dare call tne dog. Hairnet mignt hurt him and as lor the letters, I'll have hrm send tuem to my gm mend who would be glad to tender them to me. ny tne way, are you going to the theater tonight? Awful good show. The name of it is “Dove.” Well, 1 must toddle along, it’s almost time for supper. Any time you want another friendly little chat let me know. (Dxit Ophelia.) i'olonius: Drat the girl. I’m going to see her mother about this. She certainly lias a will of her own, though. (Slightly coughing) L guess she gets that from me. Perhaps I’d better not say anything to her mother about this until I think it over. Just Pals “Eugenia, do wake up.” “Oh Betty, what’s the use. It’s early yet.” “No, dear. It is not. Please come on. We’ll not get our bed made before classes, if you don’t hurry. Why, I’m almost dressed.” “ Yes, but you’re used to it, and I’m not. 1 never had to get up early at home and 1 don’t see why 1 do now.” “All right, better hurry, though. I’m going to breakfast.” And so the college day progressed as had thousands of others. ‘Say, Gene, going any place tonight?” “No, where are you going?” “Billie and I an going to see ‘Borrowed Finery’ tonight.” “Though you might like to go along.” “No thanks, I’m too sleepy,” but some minutes after Betty’s departure the telephone rang and Eugenia with a happy smile answered it. “Yes, this is me, Miles. Sure I’ll go. 1 don’t have my Greek but 1 should worry. Betty’s gone and I’m sure lonesome.” “Well, gone again. I’m not much surprised.” Betty remarked when Billie left her at her own door about ten o’clock. The next morning, Eugenia’s first words were, “Betty, why don’t you cut Billie Wayne? lie's poor as Job’s turkey and you’re so nice. Page Seventy-one Why Bob Jennings, the richest kid here would go with you even if you haven’t-------.” She stopped suddenly. “Even if 1 don’t have money, huh?” finished Betty for her. ‘Why-er no Betty. 1 wasn’t going to say that at all.” “-Never mind what you were going to say. We’d better hustle. Billie and 1 are going to nave a coast before scnool. And Gene, as sue started to leave lor tier coast, “ L'lease don’t ever mention Billie’s being poor, any more. 1 wouldn't give mm up for a dozen Bob Jennings witn all tneir money, so you'd as well not waste your breath. Why Billie and 1 are pals.” “isn’t it too bad,” said Oraline to Eugenie, as they were leaving for home to spend tneir Christmas vacation, that Betty’s parents can’t send her enough money to go home on. I’m sure that’s the reason she isn’t going, fene dresses so plainly and she never mentions her family. They must he awfully poor.” “Yes, but she’s so nice.” “Indeed she is.” Spring came, it was only six days before graduation. “Betty,” questioned Billie, “Aren’t any of your relation coming to see you graduate?” “Yes,” she replied, and her tone denoted plainly that she intended to say no more on the subject. The two young people walked on in silence for some time, then— “Betty, what are you going to do when you get through college?” “Why, I don’t just know, Billie.” “Say, I have a surprise for you.” “Fire away.” “I’ve got a position. Lawyer, you know. Three thousand a year.” “Billie, really? Oh, how lovely.” “Betty.” “Yes?” Let’s make a new compact.” “Why, Billie what’s the matter with the old one?” “Why, Betty, you remember it was a long time ago when we made that agreement and in it we promised to stick by each other?” “Yes, but Billie, you surely don’t wan’t to break that.” There was real alarm in her blue eyes as she looked up into his brown ones. “No, no, Betty girl. Don’t be alarmed. You know, dear, those were the days when I had no money and now Betty, I will have enough to keep two and, well, of course, 1 couldn’t think of having anyone but you for that second person. It’s a pretty town where I’m going.” “Billie, how did you know?” Page Seventy-two “Know what?” “()h, density, that I care of course,” and so the compact was sealed. “Hetty Marrison, why are you so secretive about your folks. Come on, tell me what to look for.” It was Billie who was speaking as he and Betty watched the train pull in, which was to bring Betty’s relatives. “Just you wait and see. Oh, there’s the train!” exclaimed Betty. Bilhe could not believe his eyes. Betty! Ilis Betty! was in the arms of Earl Marrison, the greatest, riches, and most famous doctor of the world. Could that be Betty’s father? Billie’s confused thoughts were intenupted by Betty’s voice. “Billie, this is daddy. I wanted to surprise you. Daddy you know Billie from my letters. You know we were just pals hut we’ve made a new compact now. Come on and we’ll tell you about it.” —MARION MARSH.

This was “Cowboy’s” second year and all regret that he will not be back next year. Bill Maclav. tackle, always got his man. He could break through any defense and spoil a play. TTis tackling and blocking was one of Auburn’s greatest factors in her victories. Tie also could make loner and accurate passes. It is to be regretted very much that he will not be hack next year. Lynn Paris, tackle and end, was there with the goods. Tie could catch passes as well as block plavs. TTe plavs a charging game and is a hard tackier. TTe could carry the hall for substantial gains on end plays. Watty, fullback, kicker, passer, was known and feared hv all of our opponents. TTe is big and fast and could smash the line for large gains in critical times. TTe was also a large ground gainer on end runs. Tt will be hard to fill his place next year. John McKnight is another Sophomore football performer. TTe plaved ( nd and did not miss a down all season. TTe was a very clever end and made several touchdowns for the Scarlet and Green. Eugene Perry, guard and h elf-back. could be depended upon to get his man. His guarding drew the attention of all observers as well as Psge Seventv-seven our opposing teams. He always gave his best until the final whistle blew. Admire, guard and tackle, played his position well. He stopped plays on the defensive and opened good holes on the offensive, lie always played a good, steady game and could he depended upon to fight for the interest of the team. John Boyd played guard and filled bis position. lie was a good man on both defensive and offensive sides. Also he did a good deal of the passing. John will be one of Auburn’s main-stays in the next two years. Chester Combs was the man over the ball. 11 is passes were sure and he always managed to back his man. His opponents always had a great deal of respect for him and tried to get out of his way. Rex Gage, otherwise known as “Ikev” was our wizard quarterback. He always knew which plays to call for the best results. He managed the team in a manner which showed his ability. He was no less efficient in making gains and in passing the ball. Bertie Flack, Captain-elect and half-back was one of our stellar performers. lie is very fast and could not be surpassed in open field running. Also lie is a wonder at tackling and breaking up plays. Our success during the past season has been due chiefly to the efforts of our splendid coach, H. A. Johnson. He was well liked by all the players and he taught his men to play a clean sportsman-like game. He was untiring in his efforts to produce a winning team. The substitutes for the season were: Wesley Martgan, quarterback ; Harold Paris, end; Julius Leiss, guard; Dayton Maclay, guard; Howard Ferneau, tackle. Auburn has a number of other players who although they did not get to play much this year, received a great deal of experience and show promise of making a winning team next year. In October Auburn began the football season in a battle with Bratton Union. The first half opened with a rush, Watkins carrying the ball through for a touchdown on the first play. The ball was pushed over the goal almost at will for the rest of tin game and several of the second team men were run in for the experience it would give them. The final whistle blew with Auburn victorious by a score of 38 to 0. The Auburn warriors journey to Verdon where they had to go up against a bunch of veterans. The Auburn lads had the edge on their opponents and the score ended 21 to 0 with Auburn on top. The first touchdown came in tin first quarter when Watkins plunged over from the 10 yards line. The second score came in the second quarter. Page Seventy-eight Broady skirted the end for 15 yards and a touchdown. The Verdon team held during the third quarter but in the last quarter Watkins again carried the ball across which ended the scoring. On October 22, Auburn battled its way to victory, finding an easy victim in Weeping Water. Auburn jumped into the lead early in the game and held it throughout. Auburn showed a fine defense in this game, the opponents only making their downs once. The Aubuin warriors took a trip to Tecumseh and brought home the small end of a 28 to 0 score. Auburn did very well in this game considering the difference in weight and experience of the teams. We might here mention that Tecumseh was one of tin contenders for th state title and were champions of Southeastern Nebraska. The next week the Pawnee Citv team came to Auburn. They had a good team but they were no match for Auburns team. Tin game was hard fought and neither team was at any time sure of the outcome. Broady nabbed a fumble in mid-field and raced across tin goal for one of our touchdowns, and (lege unshed the ball over for the other touchdown. The game ended with Auburn in the lead 13 to 7. Auburn finally played their delavcd gome with Falls City but it seemed to be an off day for our team. They seemed to be unable to hold the Falls City men and although they pushed the ball within the shadows of their opponents goal they could not push it across. The game ended in defeat for Auburn by a score of 30 to 2. Not long after the Falls Citv game we went to Plattsmouth. As the game was to start at three-thirty o’clock we changed clothes in the baggage car and we were able to start placing immediately after reaching town. Auburn scored first soon after the kick-off. Plattsmouth received the next kick-off but were unable to make their yardage. Auburn made their yardage almost ('very time and Flack made the second touchdown on a criss-cross. Plattsmouth again received and Auburn recovered the ball on a Plattsmouth fumble. Broady made the next and last touchdown on a fifty-vard run. After this game we went to Omaha to spend tin evening seeing the city. We returned on the morning train, tired but victorious. The last game of the season was with Nebraska City. The day before the game four of Auburn’s best men took the afternoon off and attended a trial. As their punishment they were dismissed from the team for the last game. Of course Auburn was defeated. We hope to have a fair chance at them next year. This ended our football season which we think very successful.

John Broady (captain). “Cowboy” this year plaved his third season with the wearers of tin Scarlet and Green and proved a most adaptable man on the team. TTis speed and ability to work tin ball down the floor was of invaluable service to his team-mates. He worked equally well either in the guard or forward positions. Kenneth Watkins, guard and center played one of the regain 1 positions this year. He was an exceptional man on the defensive. HF ability at breaking up passes and blocking shots kept our opponent’s scores down a great deal. Lynn Paris, guard, was one of the fastest and best plavcrs on the team. TTis passing was accurate and he was also an excellent basket tosser. On these facts, is based his ability as.a running guard Bertie Flack, center. Bertie is a steady and In showed good form in all tin games. This is his first year on Auburn’s team and lie will he hack to take his place next year. Howard Ferneau. “Perk” always had a horseshoe in his pocket. Page Eight-one 11 played almost all the positions oil the team and was very adept in any of them. He is a very tricky player and always managed to get loose from his guards. Chester Combs, guard. “Chess” played in hard luck this year as lie was kept out of most of the games on account of injuries. Chess was a steady player and always showed good form Chess was one of the best guards Auburn ever had and he was missed a :reat deal by his absence. Season’s Review A few days after the football season was over Coach Johnson issued a call to those who aspired to become basket ball players. This call was answered by about twenty-five boys all but two of whom were new men. Coach Johnson Worked these over for a couple of weeks and managed to got a team in shape for their first game. On December 22 Syracuse came to Auburn with a team which had been training for several weeks. The game was very fast and the score remained almost even throughout, but the final whistle blew with Syracuse in the lead. The week after Christmas Peru came over with a bunch of beef. They were still sore over their defeat at the hands of Auburn last year. This was another fast game but the Peru team was a little too much for our new team and they carried home tin bacon. The score was 20 to 12. Tin next game was with the fast Nebraska City aggregation who were Class B. Champions in 1921. The game was fast and closely fought until the last few minutes when the Nebraska City athletes became lucky. The final whistle blew with Nebraska City in the lead by a score of 20 to 10. The same week the Auburn Athletes journey to Plattsmouth and were again defeated after a fast game by a score of 24 to 14. Bert Flack had the honor of making eleven fouls in this game. Soon after this Plattsmouth journey to Auburn and after one of the fastest games ever played on the Auburn floor Plattsmouth copped the bacon by a score of 24 to 6. Nebraska City came to Auburn expecting to go home with another seal]) to their list but after a fast and very close game Auburn won by a score of 28 to 21. Auburn returned the game with Peru determined to atone for their former defeat but the Peruvians were very much at home on their own floor and although the game was hard fought the score 211 to 9 indicated that the Auburn team had again suffered defeat. L_ Page Eight-two Dawson invaded our Camp the next week. They also had a big big bunch of fellows but were no match for the fast Auburn Athletes. Auburn gained a lead of 14 to 5 in tin tirst half and were never in danger. The game ended with Auburn on the long end of a .‘14 to 12 score. The following week Stella visited us with the hopes of going home victorious but they soon changed their minds. The score was 23 to 6 in favor of Auburn. The Talmage game was our next victory and this was a very fast game. This was the one best game of the seaso'n. The score was 28 to !) in favor of Auburn. Our next game was with Pawnee and again we were by a score of 28 to 8. victorious We then went to Lincoln for the tournament but things did not turn out as expected. We were defeated in our first game by DeWitt who were runners up in Class C. Page Eighty-three Basket Ball—Reserves All winning trams must have opposition in practice This is the main reason the s cend team was organizer! rJ he also, however, have a record of winning three out of the three game1 played. Their results were as follows: Johnson 16, Auhuin 19. Why Boyd was promoted. After the Johnson-Auburn game last year, Johnson felt that they could beat the Autuin Reserves, especially with the handicap of their low ceiling. They f .tiled in their enterprise, however, largely because of the goal shooting of “Dead-Eye” Boyd. Ferneau had a little difference in opinion with one of the Johnson boys too, but all’s well that ends well. A return game was scheduled but never played. Bratton Union 1, Aubunr 22. Just a little practice in goal shooting. Auburn 10, Bratton Union 2. Bratton Union was willing to take one more good beating just to enjoy the modern plumbing conveniences they could not boast of in their “gym.” It was rather slow at the last, as the boys could not keep up their pep. The reserves also played two preliminaries with Gage’s A. C. S. team. The scores were above the powers of comprehension, however, and by Gage’s request, we decline to print them. The season also included one GOOD CLEAN GAME with the first team. They were held to a score of 7 to 12, without either trouble or hard feelings. Page Eighty-four Page Eighty-five Girls’ Basket Ball Line Up I Ida Schriefer, “Shorty,” our captain, made a leader for the team who could not be beaten, llda played right forward, and made most of the points for Auburn. She was “usually superior” to her opponent which was a great advantage for Auburn. I Ida ’s pep for her team never gave out and she will be back next year to help put Auburn on the map. Great things are expected of you llda. T 1 • I V I Helen Frary, “Old Sandow,” was always on the job. Helen played left forward and she made some fine goals. Her hobby was long shots and the result two points for Auburn. She uusally kept a guard busy fimling her, and then gave her a job of real fighting to get the ball. Helen also made many points for Auburn on foul throws. Maude Stewart “Dick,” played right guard, and did her duty for the team. Maude is noted for her high jumping and sending the ball back down to the local goal. She played in every game and her pep never gave out in any of them. Maude will not be back next year and how Auburn will miss her. The team only wish they might count on her good guarding for next year. Naomi Rains “Little Girl,” played left guard and certainly did her part in putting Auburn on the map. She and Maude carried on splendid team work. Not many forwards ever got away with the ball when Naomi was near. Naomi also will not be back next year, and how we will miss her. Everyone who saw her play knows what big tilings that “ Little Girl” did. Klain Williams “Pete”, played center. Klain knew the signals and sure jumped to send the ball where Auburn needed it. She played in every game and did splendid team work. Klain has so much condensed pep that she mVer ran out when tin team needed it, and was right there with “ruffin’ ’em” when they needed it. We regret very much that she will not be back again next year to show her colors for the A. II. S. Margaret Gillan “Dutch.” Although she is the smallest of the girls she showed that she was not slow by any means. She played as second center, a position that takes pep, and a lot of it, and Dutch surely had that. She played in every game excepting the one played at Falls City, and although her substitute did good work we missed her very much. LaVeta Hanlon “Irish” played substitute guard. LaVeta showed her Irish grit for Auburn in every game she took part in. Her opponent never got by with anything when she had her eye on her. LaVeta will be back next year and great things are expected of her. Page Eif 'hty-seven Ada Harmon “ Blondy,” played substitute forward, and did her part for the Scarlet and tireen. Ada made several good goals tor Auburn. On out of town trips sue was noted for her pep on the sidelines. Ada will tie liacK next year “lull force.” Mary Rohrs “Cupid,” piaved substitute second center. Mary piayeu m sevual games, intuiumg l .e one at Kails City and here Mary played line, bhe is small out i.as plenty of pep. lMai v will not be with us iu xv year, and will be greatly nnsseel by ail. Mona Black “blackie,” played substitute forward. Although Mona did not get to play any, she was suited up for several games and did her part in piactice which meant so n.ucn to ti.e team. Everyone is soi ry Mona will not be back with her pep next year. Miss Blankenship was our coach and not a better one could h found. Her gnat quantity of pep influenced the girls greatly. She 1 eld ] indices regularly and everyone of them made better players of the gills. It was only lu r good judgment and good humor that won for the A. 11. S.. live games out of six. Miss Blankenship We girls who played basket ball this year will never forget Miss Blankenship. SI e was always there with her amiable smile and a good word for everyone. Dining games with other towns we were accustomed to that amiable smile changed to a look of determination and always we saw her with the familiar book, “ ’22 Rules for Girls Basket Ball.” Our only t egret is to have her leave us this coming year, hut we can never forget 1 r kindness to ns gills. She not only coached us along to better basket ball, but also taught us better sportmans' ip. We owe our successful year to her. Girls’ Basket Ball Games Peru vs. Auburn The first game of the season for the girls was played January 13, on Friday. Doesn’t that sound unlucky? Well, it was-----for the Peru girls. The teams wore evenly matched and neither one had played in public before this year but it was said to be a fast girls’ game. The final score was 15 to 16 with our girls carrying off the honors. Falls City vs. Auburn The Falls City Girls came to Auburn to try their luck here but they forgot that it wasn’t luck that counted here but action. The girls were not so sure of themselves because Miss Blankenship was not here on account of her sister’s illness, but after the game was started the work was fine. The score was Falls City 13 and Auburn 26. Page Eighty-eight On Friday, February 17, 192 2, the “Undefeated 6” went to Falls City where we were defeated 21 to 17 which was taken in the best and most cheerful manner that could be It was at this time that the “flu” epidemic was whirling and our girls were below tin standard of a 100% team which we have. Our running center was unable to be on the trip which was a disadvantage to tin rest of us for team work. Although all played a good game it was our doom. The score at the end of the first half was 9 to 9. The substitute that were played were: LaVeta Hanlon, guard; Mary Rohrs and Ada Harmon, running center. This was the only game lost and for our past we say that we can beat them on any floor and at any time when our team is 100%. Peru vs. Auburn This being our third game away from home, and after being defeated by Falls City, we still felt rather weak in the knees. However, we knew that this side of ten miles on February 25th wasn’t meant for a defeat. The game convinced both the subs and the Seward boys that it was a complete walk away of 20 to 8. After a good chicken dinner at the Christian Church we rambled home to tin tune of ‘ ‘ Victory. ’ ’ Nebraska City vs. Auburn The Nebraska City team came to Auburn, March .‘I, feeling sure of a victory. But the Auburn girls bad then, outclassed in every respect, and easily won with a score of 44 to 17, playing all of the substitutes. I Ida, was the stait of this game. This closed the basket ba’l season for the girls, and they left a record of which Auburn may well be proud.

Mar. 23—Eugene, don’t vou think that, there was a rather strong smell of perfume in the assembly today? We see by the Scarlet and' Green of 1920 that on the evening of March 23. 1920. Mr. John Broadv had the honor of being observed at Frarv’s with a girl. The act was repeated todav, the same, only—this is not leap year. Friday. Mar. 24—More exams. Freshies look worried. Sophs anxious. Juniors frightened and Seniors dignified. TENTH WEEK Monday.

Wednesday, April 19—Freshmen are to'.d they must pay twenty-five cents to have their picture in the annual. They immediately consider possibilities in other investments. Thursday, April 20—More pictures are taken. The schoolhouse is a legu-'er smoke lhou.se. Everett became violently ill an was excused. The :moke from the flashlights made him sick—he never could stand smoke. Friday, April 21—Orchestra have their pictures taken (for the third time). No one else seems to know how they woik it.

Some of the boys, especially Varro seem to encounter a little difficulty in making arrangements. Lots of talking and kidding. Kenneth has to buy the cigars. FIFTEENTH WEEK Monday. May 1—Well, the banquet is over. We were more than satis-field, too. We have to admit that with one exception, it was the best in histoiy. We are sorry to hear that Kenneth and Faye were hurt last night. Tuesday. May 2—Well, we have kept this calendar out a week later than schedule now, in hope that something would happen, but all in vain. At that there is one advantage, the annual will be a week later in coming out. The staff will not have to beware of the egg or the battle ax for another week in this case. We thank vou for your kind consideration of us, in devoting your time to the interpretation of this, and hope we have caused no hard feelings. —JAMES GILLILAN ’22. 0 Page Ninety-five i LIST OF ADVERTISERS Nemaha County Abstract Co.

F. QU1LLER, Prop. Page Hundred One “WHY GO 1 ) AUBURN HIGH” Tl.c querry, “Doc.-; it pay to go to Hip-h School?” is no longer a two-sided question. There is but one answer, and that is “Yes.” The reasons are obvious to all who are at all informed concerning modern needs and requirements of the present day boy and girl, and the modem meth xis and equipment of the present day schools in supplying those needs and requirements. The question rather, then, with which the boys and gills of Nemaha county are confronted is, “To what High School shall we go?” And the logical answer is “The Auburn High School?” And “Why the Auburn High School ? ” Because: 1. The Auburn High School is the largest in the county. 2. Its location is the most accessible and desirable in the county. 3. It has the largest and best trained faculty in the county. 4. It has the finest exclusive High School building in the county. 5. Its building is the best equipped in the county. 6. The spirit of its student body is the best in the county. 7. It is ranked as an “A” class accredited High School by the State University. 8. It is a “North Central Association” High School. 9. It offers courses in the following: Col'ege Preparatory. Commercial. Normal Training. Smith-Hughes Home Economics. Manual Training. Combination Course. 10. It costs no more to go to Auburn High than anywhere else. So slide that when they summons come to join that motely crowd Where thou shalt receive thy punishment for right or wrong. Thou go not like frightened Bally, chased by harmless belaud, But sustained and soothed as Eloise by Rex’s presence. Approach thy report card, with stealthy tread.

The office of this year’s staff was in the Chemistry Laboratory. Every orderly office has its own set of rules. The rules of this office are as follows: 1. Walk in, make yourself at home. 2. Be pil pared to be busy if Miss Wellhausen comes in. 3. Work diligently and do not talk. 4. If you care to smoke, go to the furnace room. It is annoying to the faculty advisors here. 5. Assume a dignified air and make the other fellow think you are working. 6 Don’t worry, dear faculty advisors, we will not over work. 7. If you have nothing to do, do not go to the assembly. Remain until the bell rings. It is intended to wake those who are sleeping in classes anyway. 8. In fact, make our office your office and use any of our material that you want to your heart’s content, (let all the enjoyment out of life you can while in our office.
