A. Jimerson at a summer session of the unfcvergity of Nebraska in 1916. An enthusiastic, affable gentleman, he attractecr'acquaintances on all sides. Fortunate for me I was admitted to his circle of friends and have enjoyed a growing relationship since that time. One of the many rewards of friendship is the pleasure of sharing the successes of friends. J. A. Jimerson’s friends have been greatly rewarded, for he has gained success in all of his undertakings. As a soldier, a teacher and a citizen he has always given his all to the job; given freely, enthusiastically, intelligently, and his is a success that typifies the best in professional and individual endeavor. I am confident that I reflect the unanimous opinion of his numerous friends and acquaintances all over the state of Nebraska when I congratulate him on his record of service, and I would miss the mark were I to fail to congratulate Auburn schools, city and community on their privilege of working with Superintendent Jimerson and on their loval suooort to him.

Early in the first quarter Harper went over for a touchdown, but Thompson’s kick was wide. Both teams were playing hard and the half ended with the score 6 to 0. At the beginning of the third quarter the teams seemed to be well matched, but later Abington plunged over twice in the course of a few minutes. One of the try-for-points was good and the score was Auburn 19— Peru 0. Just before the final whistle a pass from Andrews to Jurgensmeier netted another touchdown. Coach Higgins sent in the reserves and held Peru for the rest of the period. Auburn’s lineup looked great in their first game of the season. Hamer showed some wonderful line plunging ability. The big line showed the Peru boys a tough time. CAPTAIN CLARK Center Page Thirty-five Page Thirty-six BLOUNT Tackle ANDREWS Quarter Back Football AUBURN—FALLS CITY A successful try-for-point was Auburn’s margin of victory over the Falls City gridsters. The Falls City team was full of fight and went through Auburn for a touchdown in the first quarter. The try-for-ooint was blocked. This brought the old Bulldogs to their feet and they came back with plenty of fight. Jurgensmeier punted 80 yards and Falls City was held for downs. The Bulldogs took the ball and plunged the line for a touchdown. The try-for-point was good. The half ended with the score Auburn 7—Falls City 6. The last half was a hard fought battle between the two goal posts. Both teams showed up well and nothing seemed to affect them. Captain Clark, Wheeler and Rogge seemed to be wide open all through the game. They tore up the Falls City line plunges in nice shape. Jurgensmeier’s punting toe was in splendid condition and he accounted for himself in nice shape. Abington, Harper and Andrews showed the Falls City boys some real line plunging. WHEELER Guard Football AUBURN—SABETHA The Auburn Bulldogs stepped on the Sabetha team for their fifth straight win of the season. The Bulldogs were swinging into their stride and the scoring started in the early Dart of the game. Abington scored the first touchdown. The try-for-point was wide. At the end of the first quarter the score was 6-0. In the second quarter the Sabetha team showed plenty of fight and held the Bulldogs up to the half. Early in the third quarter Jurgensmeier got loose and ran 75 yards for a touchdown. Try-for-point was not good. A pass from Andrews to Bradner was good for the third touchdown. IRVIN End In the fourth quarter Auburn scored two more touchdowns. The first was a pass from Andrews to Ely. The extra point was good. Just before the final gun Jurgensmeier intercepted a pass and ran for a touch-own, making the final score: Auburn—32; Sa- betha—0. ABINGTON Half Back HARPER Full Back Page Thirty-seven Football AUBURN—HUMBOLDT Coach Higgins’ Bulldogs crashed through the Humboldt team for 6 touchdowns. The Bulldogs were determined to win and the scoring started early. A triple pass behind the line was good for the first touchdown. Try-for-point by Thompson fell short. Irvin was doing some splendid work in this game. His blocking and defensive work was very good. Abington was good for the second touchdown and Thompson’s kick was good. Andrews knifed through the line for the third touchdown. Try-for-point was good. The score was 20-0 at the half. Late in the third quarter Harper crossed the white line for the fourth time. Try-for-point was good. BRADNER Half Back BROOKS Tackle Late in the fourth period Andrews got loose for 40 yards and made the last touchdown. The try-for-point by Blount was perfect.

Thrup .......... ___Wayne Ruddy Wayne Stephenson Frances Nordlund .... Maxine Smith Robert Armstrong ELLEN HEDGE—Director Page Sixty-two M.I.N.K ' $ V Pk W I: CAST “THE FORFEIT” The plot of the story takes place in the office of Howard Sheldon, sales manager for the Pembrey and Withington Jewelry Company. A diamond ring is missing from Mr. Pembrey’s private office. He questions Sheldon and Miss Hyde, his secretary, and both appear innocent. Sheldon’s guilt is known to no one but Miss Hyde, who cleverly helps him to escape suspicion by hiding the ring where it will be found by someone. However, when Mrs. Mullins, a scrub-woman in the office, is questioned, she is certain that she saw Mr. Sheldon leaving the office in the evening while she was cleaning. Her certainty makes it appear that perhaps she has taken the ring. But Thrupp, the office boy, finds the ring where Miss Hyde put it, and Pembrey has no suspicion of Sheldon. After the suspense of the questioning, Sheldon asks Miss Hyde to help him further by marrying him, but she refuses because of the shame that stands between them.

The purpose of the Club is to bring out the qualities of each member which will help her to become a more successful teacher.

Page Seventy-one Scarlet and Green” RUTLEDGE ROBERTS AUE The above cut was requested by the Lincoln State Journal and appeared in that newspaper, accompanying a feature article concerning high school year books. The purpose of the article was to review the types of books produced by Nebraska high schools and to make mention of outstanding word done in producing the annual. The Scarlet and Green of 1932 has received special mention because of its art work. The art scheme was planned to carry out the idea suggested in the phrase “Nebraska’s Garden of Eden,” which is applied to this section of the state. All of the drawings for the opening section and the division pages are the work of Ruth Rutledge, the editor-in-chief of this book. To be satisfactory a year book must be well planned as a business project. Paul Aue has been a competent business manager. The sources of income are from the sale of books, from assessed engraving dues, and from advertising. The staff of the 1932 Scarlet and Green here expresses its appreciation to all of thos people, who have in any way aided in making this production successful and especially to the business houses advertising in our year book.
