T. Nevein DEDICATION TTONORING Mr. S. T. Ncvcln. Superintendent, ■ -- ■ whose service to the Austin Public Schools has now passed the thirteenth year: whose spirit has become a Hving part of our institution, em- bodying all that is noble and enlightening; and whose influence has imbued us with the desire to build strong and true lives. Furthermore, because of his faith and understanding of the youth of today, we, the senior class of 1934, dedicate our year book, THE 1934 AUSTINIAN, to Superintend- ent S. T. Neveln. FOREWORD THE 19 34 Austininn has for its purpose the portrayal of daily living in an influential atmosphere under watchful and sympathetic guid- ance. By using the channel of School Life as a theme, the senior class and yearbook staff of 1934 hope to picture the life that they liave known and tlu ' ir school days, which they will never forget, in Austin High.

From these our interviewers, in which I steal From all I may be, or have been before, To mingle with the universe, and feel What I can ne ' er express, yet cannot all conceal. — Lord Byron Nature ' s Charm Page six M: ' -n -g f nMs t- :: i i .

And that thought is more than speech. — Hagcman ADMINISTRATION ' T ' HE School becomes a place not only of study and learning but of happiness, as students and fac- ulty link hands and minds in trust and understanding. Hopes and am- bitions materialize into vivid reali- ties as the Board of Education, su- perintendent, principal, and faculty inspire the students to attain the level of higher endeavors and ideals.

Jacobson STUDENTS OF THE AUSTIN HIGH SCHOOL SCHOOL life is much more than information gained from books. It includes, of course, the regular class work, as well as the many other and varied activi- ties found in a modern comprehensive high school. There are clubs for those who have special interests. There are intcrscholastic athletic teams for boys in many sports and an intramural program of athletics for both boys and girls. Then there are dramatic productions and musical organizations for those who desire to participate. The Student Council interests the pupils who partici- pate in its activities. Besides taking part in some of these activities you have made friends with other boys and girls. This book furnishes a record in pictures of your activities and friends in the Austin High School. You will treasure it increasingly as the years pass by. P. B.

Some of us may return, while many of the students will continue their educa- tion in some college or university. But now. as we are about to graduate, we realize that we have spent six happy and worth-while years in the Austin High School. It was six years ago on September 5. 1928. that we entered the seventh grade. We were small in stature and inexperienced. On that first day of school we were bewildered: we didn ' t know where the different classrooms were: each of us had been given a lock- er in which to keep his coat and hat rather than the customary hook in the grade school cloak-room. We had been accustomed to one teacher for everything, but now we had one teach- er for each subject. It didn ' t take long, however, before we became acquainted with the routine of the school. In the fall of 1929 we had pro- gressed a year. We were now eighth graders, and though the senior high school students considered us rather small and insignificant, we felt im- portant. Returning for our second year in the junior high school, we noticed at once that the entire west corridor of the school, which had never been entirely completed, was now fin- ished. With the addition of several new class rooms, the facilities of the school were greatly improved. Even though we were confined mostly to the third floor, we noticed and appreciated the renovation. In the ninth grade we were fresh- men. During this year the class was organized, and we elected class officers. We also chose class advisers. And do you remember the class party? Also as freshmen we were graduated from the junior high school. And in 1931 we were known as the sophomore class. We were gain- ing a place of prominence in the school. As sophomores we took part in many more activities — declamation work, athletics, music — they all interested the sophomores. Next came 1932 and we were jun- iors. Near the beginning of the year there was the successful class play, Heart Trouble. Then later the an- nual junior-senior reception when we were hosts to the seniors. Oh. yes, we must not forget Class Day. And how the seniors of 1933 must have felt! And now we are almost through being seniors. This year several members of the class were on the Sentinel Staff. And this yearbook, the Austinian. was another project of the senior class. And then — announcements, commencement, graduation, caps and gowns, baccalau- reate, class day, reception, skip day — words we can never forget. During these six years there have been many added facilities placed be- fore us for our benefit. Our school, with its swimming pool, gymnasium, cafeteria, and the large auditorium, is something of which every student is very proud. We also have a large iwenty-acre athletic field which pro- vides a full-sized football field besides a number of smaller fields. This year with the addition of eight large flood- lights, the field is one of the finest in this territory. Another unique and re- cent addition to the school ' s equipment is the sound machine or Movietone which was installed this year. We were very proud of the radio and speakers when they were bought for the school several years ago: and now with the Movietone, we should be doubly ap- preciative. As Austin High School graduates we realize we have been given every opportunity. Page fouru-en THIRD ROW Arncv. Bell. Bender. Benton. Black. Chri«i.in SFCOND ROW: Church. Couer. t owhng. Davison.

Although the goal has almost been reached by the seniors, the underclassmen still have an opportunity to rise to higher levels of learning. In this, the roster section, the students are por- trayed as they are: the entire per- sonnel of the school.

Shall we be able to shoulder this responsibility, which is one of the greatest that can be transferred to us by the preceding generation: If we wish to cope with the problems of today we must be thoroughly prepared to meet the tests that they will offer. During our school career we have been building character that will enable us to bear the torch faithfully as it is passed on to us. This is our time for preparation. Let us work diligently to grasp the material that is offered us. Knowledge can be obtained only through a careful education. Thomas Huxley, the great Victorian physicist, said, Education is learning the rules of this mighty game. The person who has not followed the rules of the preliminary game of public school training by trying, at every available opportunity, to get by has harmed only himself. For in the game that really counts, the person who attempts to get by on what someone else has accomplished is soon discovered and given his just reward. Since self-reliance is stressed in our education, we arc expected to have developed that quality into our characters before we go out into the world. Leadership, that quality m men and women which is most sought fcor. can easily be developed during high school. Every student is a potential leader. There has to be sorne spark that will set off the flame that distinguishes a leader from the rest of the people. In school our extra-curricular activities afford a splendid opportunity for our development of leadership. Let us take advantage of the varied outside activities that are offered us. We should not deprive our- selves of any opportunity to become leaders by not participating in some of tiie activities. If we apply these principles, we shall become the leaders that we are ex- pected to be. If we are prepared, our opportunity will come. NOR. !.

Miss Hazel G Murray, instructor. Effic Tollefson. Florenc Ziemer Teacher Training THE students who composed this year ' s teacher training department, under the able supervision of Miss Hazel G. Murray, have endeavored to fulfill the ideals of the profession. Fourteen girls and two boys constituted the group this year because the number permitted to enter the department has been reduced. Miss Cora Russell was primarily responsible for the introduction of this department sixteen years ago. Since that time it has been a definite part of the Austin high school. Several requirements are necessary for entrance to this department. The two outstanding are scholastic standing and character. Each student entering must hold a high school certificate and must be recommended by the school superintendent, county superintendent, the instructor of the department, and the Minnesota State Department of Education. In February the group entertained at a tea those rural teachers at whose schools the department members did their practice teaching. The members previously enjoyed a Hollowe ' en party. The students did their rural practice teaching from February 26 to March 9, and later did grade teaching in the Austin schools. Upon graduation from the teacher training department a certificate is received which entitles the graduate to teach in the rural schools of Minnesota. This year the members of the department consolidated themselves in a club called New Rural Administrators.

RAY WESCOTT Advisers Page thirty-three The Class of 35 WE started our long high school career as all children do — in the freshmen class. Our first class meeting was held with Lester Stucwer as president. Although we had high hopes of doing great things, we were compelled to be satisfied with one function, a party, because we were only freshmen, and we had to be kept in the shade. Our best excuse, however, was the fact that Lester broke his leg. At the beginning of our sophomore year, we went in a huddle and decided to be seen and heard that year — and we were. At Christmas we sponsored a party in the gym. That party will always be remembered, especially by the janitors — why. ' ' Oh, just because everyone threw confetti. Now. we really weren ' t for all play. We had in our midst great scholars who led the honor roll almost every six weeks period. As juniors we again forge ahead in the scholastic field. Not only that, but there were juniors on the football team, juniors on the basket ball team, juniors in declamation, in fact, juniors everywhere. To crown all our activities in the past we are going to give the seniors as great an entertainment as they have ever had when we stage the junior-senior prom. We also looked forward to the senior class play to see if they, the noble seniors, could out-do us in pro- ducing a play such as ours, The Importance of Being Earnest.

Working in these walls of Time: Some with massive deeds and great, Some with ornaments of rhyme. Nothing useless is. or low: Each thing in its place is best: And what seems but idle show Strengthens and supports the rest. For the structure that we raise, Time is with materials filled: Our to-days and yesterdays Are the blocks with which we build. Truly shape and fashion these: Leave no yawning gaps between: Think not. because no man sees. Such things will remain unseen. In the elder days of Art. Builders wrought with greatest care Each minute and unseen part: For the gods see everywhere. Let us do our work as well. Both the unseen and seen: Make the house, where gods may dwell. Beautiful, entire, and clean. Else our lives are incomplete. Standing in these walls of Time, Broken stairways, where the feet Stumble as they seek to climb. Build to-day. then, strong and sure, With a firm and ample base: And ascending and secure Shall to-morrow find its place. Thus alone can we attain To those turrets, where the eye Sees the world as one vast plain. And one boundless reach of sky. — Henry Wadsivorih Longfelloiv Page fo:iu-four Wf ' ACTIVITIES ' T ' HE golden thread of service and duty that arises as a result of participation in organizations and clubs is a woven web of friendship that will spin innumerable pleas- ures and furnish as a finished prod- uct, good fellowship. Library FROM very early days Babylonia was ihc scat ot a learned and literary people, and almost every important temple contained its library of clay tablets. The name ' library is derived from the Latin liber meaning book and gradually this word was converted into library, a place where books and manuscripts are kept. The earliest library in America was that presented to the Henrico College, established by the colonists of Virginia in 1621. and destroyed at the time of the massacre the next year. With the dedication of the present high school in 1921. just three hundred years later, there was also dedicated the first school library in Austin. Prior to that time the old high school, the Franklin building, contained no library. It was with permission that a student was allowed to leave school to go to the Carnegie library to obtain reading material. At the Carnegie library were housed some school books which formed the nucleus for our present school library. The first librarian who was primarily responsible for this library was Miss Esther Hetherlin. a graduate of a library training school, who did the first cataloging of the books. To begin with, there were four large reading tables which were later cut down to make the present eight and help improve, a cork carpet was laid to muffle the noises. The next libraian was succeeded by Miss Geneva Flygare. She in turn was succeeded by our present librarian. Miss Eloise Trues- dell. For the last three years Miss Trusdell has taught the use and value of a school library in regular library classes. In the library every hour in the day pour students for reading and study. Reference books, fiction, biography, history, magazines, newspapers, encyclo- paedias all the appointments of the modern library with personal suggestions and direction in the use of these are in charge of Miss Trucsdell. Because of the change in the State Reading Curriculum a new reading list is being made and this has necessitated the purchase of many additional books_ Several table displays are used to illustrate new books which were comprised mostly of novels, short stories, and plays. Remember ' the library is the very heart of the high school. The following girls have served during the year as library assistants and deserve commendation for their faithfulness and skillful service which vvas vo un- tarily given: Frances Jensen. Kathryn Wood. Dorothy Russell. Vera Mane Padelford, Dorothy Barnitz. Cratice Smith, and Olive Esse. Page forty-seven Manual Arts THE Manual Arts department has completed one of its most progressive years under the experienced guidance of its instructors, G. O. Tollerud. J. A. Kentta, and J. A. Ranum. Much has been done in the course to interest and stimulate the students ' enthusiastic followers. Among the courses offered here are: woodwork, general shop, ninth elementary cabinet making, forging, drawing, advanced cabinet making, auto mechanics, general metals, electricity, carpentry, printing, and mechanical drawing. In cabinet making the students are not only taught the construction of buildings but are also taught how to use machines in safety. At the school exhibit in May, students ' projects are displayed publicly to show them what is being done in this department. Since the printing department was started in 1921, at the completion of the new high school building, practically all the essential printing jobs have been undertaken and completed by this department. An important project of the classes is the typographical and mechanical skill in setting up the ' ads ' in the Sentinel. The shop work consists in winding and rewinding the armatures and understanding how it generates voltage by revolving. The armatures when completed are later sold to merchants in town. The general metal course con- sists of five divisions, namely: sheet metal drafting, sheet metal work, art metal work, machine shop, and forging. In carpentry the students learn from their experience in building. This year the class is constructing a new ticket booth which will be used the latter part of the year at the athletic field. The junior high boys enrolled in general shop metal courses have made many articles of tin such as funnels, drinking cups, and dust pans. The course has taught the students not only how to acquire skill but has also proved to be one of the valuable courses taught in the junior high school. Among the field trips that the electricity class went on this year was that to the local Municipal Electric Light Plant. The plant this year installed a new turbine. In viewing the plant, the electricity class has learned to apply the rules and principles which they have been studying for the first few weeks of the course. Students who are enrolled in the mechanical drawing classes have been making drawings of screw threads, conventional threads, gears, and cross-sections. The course enables the student to come to a closer contact in understanding the back-ground of the draftsman, engineer, designer, and architect. PiUje forty-ciiiht Art ART is to help people sec better and to give organization to their feelings. All the courses in art which are under the direction of Miss Mary Ellen Cowling do not differ fundamentally except as one piece of music differs from another in complexity and difficulty. In junior high school classes the students have studied art appreciaticin. The subject has been considered in various situations. Art in the home cc nsisted of lessons on periodical furniture, rearranging furniture in rooms, and house plans. Study of art in the community resulted in maps comparing the gridiron arrangement of Austin to the radial plan of Washington D. C: and illustrations of zoning laws taught the importance of the separation of factory from resi- dential section of a city. Problems concerning the art of dress included silhciuettes of fashion of eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries, and the changing effect of dress on tall, short, and stout people. Art in the school was represented by illustrations of rules of grammar and lettering. Art apprecia- tion was also studied in connection with industry, architecture, office, theatre, and movies. Senior high school an emphasizes creative work which gives students an opportunity to express their own ideas and leelings. Art 20 is a course in design or organization of what students see. Lessons in organization of color consisted of plates of color combinations and application of them. Organiza- tion of line and flat shape was illustrated by problems in decorative design. Organization of solid shapes was studied in the abstract and as objects. Clay modeling and soap carving illustrate the lessons in organization of masses. Art 30 is similar to Art 20 except that the work is more advanced and is limited mostly to problems in painting in oil and water color, sculploring and modeling. The aim of this is to understand and create good feeling in comptising a picture or carving. With Miss Cowling ' s cooperation the art work in the Austinian was made a project of these classes, and the drawings on the division pages represent work done by students ot the advanced art groups. Each spring the annual exhibit features all the accomplishments of the art classes during the year. The projects on display were; a great deal of ability as well as industry, carefulness, and preseverance. All the students in the art classes have been given every opportunity tor creative designing and drawing has been encouraged to the fullest extent. Piigc forlynine SECOND Row FIRST ROW. E in. Weibnd.

Doughei Senior Honor Society Founded in 1932 To encourage scholarship, leadership, character, and service MEMBERSHIP in the National Honor Society of Secondary Schools is one of the highest honors which can come to any boy or girl in Austin High School. The local organization is a chapter of the Honor Society which is installed in a great many high schools throughout the United States and has a total membership of 52.000 students. There are forty-two such societies in the state of Minnesota. The purpose of this society is to give recognition to students for outstand- ing work done in high school. The members are chosen from the students who rank in the upper one-third of their class scholastically. However, scholarship is not the only quality necessary for membership in this society. The other three essentials are: leadership, character, and service. A faculty committee selects the members from year to year. Members arc elected twice a year, eight of the present members having been elected m their junior year, and twelve in their senior year. No meetings are held by this society, but an assembly is held twice a year to initiate the new members. Good character, leadership among the students, and service to the school which are essentials are judged by the daily association with the faculty and the students. These qualities are all necessary if one is to be a success in school as well as in life. OEFICERS President ROBERT SMITH Secretary MAE USEM Page fifty Ru.ld. K.ilm, Hols Si rOND R nV: Kol..-rlson.

The local chapter is the second of its kind to be established in Minnesota. The Junior National Honor Society has the same requirements for eligi- bility as the Senior Honor Society : scholarship, leadership, character, and service. The purpose, as in the Senior Honor Society, is to give recognition to students for outstanding work done in school. 1 he members are chosen Irom those ranking in the upper one-third of their class scholastically. The other three essentials: leadership, character, and service are also taken into considera- tion by the faculty committee who make the choice. Members are elected twice a year and are students of the eighth and ninth grades. The society holds no meetings of any kind, but an assembly is held twice a year for the purpose of initiating the new members. Ranking in the upper one-third ol the class is the requiiement ol scholar- ship. Leadership represents the participation in activities and being a leader in the various school activities: character is the maintenance of h igh standards: and .service is the a.ssistance given the school by participation in activities. These requirements are all judged by daily association with the faculty members and the students. OFFICFiRS President Secretary DELPHA HOLLEQUE HELEN Potter Page filly -one Third Row: Peterson.

NeKon Senior Home Economics Founded in 1933-34 To mlcrt ' st girls m ihc carious phases of home economics AS one of the most active organizations of the high school, the senior home economics club has undertaken several noteworthy projects this year under the supervision of Miss Elisabeth Smith. This club which was organized last year has about forty members enrolled at present. It has also cooperated with the Freshman Home Economics Club in several projects. Meetings are held every two weeks on Thursday evenings and are social or business in nature. Initiation is held for new members immediately after the second semester has begun. Sponsoring many ice cream sales the club has raised money to furnish the club room. A Spanish banquet was staged this year and it is planned to make this an annual event. Special programs were also given at which members of the faculty addressed the group. An outstanding event marking the close of an active year is the picnic given the second week in May. The group is also securing a plaque upon which will be engraved the girl ' s name who has done the most outstanding work in the club during the school year. The Senior Home Econoniics Club members have participated in serving several banquets this year which have been highly successful and reflect much credit upon their adviser and the club. This organization is contemplating a very active program for the next school year.

Rouz Naturalist Club Founded in 1 926 To promote ami further interest in Nature Study THE Naturalist Club is composed of a group of students who arc interested in nature subjects and the Hvcs of great naturaHsts. The club was organized eight years ago under the supervision of Miss Ruth Southwick who still heads the organization. Regular meetings are held bi-weekly in the biology room. Interesting discussions of the lives and hobbies of great naturalists as well as of club mem- bers were enjoyed during the year, one of which was Iva Scholl ' s discussion on her hobby. Insect Collecting. Several hikes for the purpose of identifying trees, weeds, birds, etc. in their natural habitat were held. Several field trips were enjoyed and a weiner roast and a Christmas party were held. Special speakers include the following: Nathan Banfield spoke on his trip to Europe: Dr. Havens entertained the club at his home and showed the group his telescope through which some of the constellations and planets were viewed : Mr. Orfield has spoken several times, once on stars, another time on nature exhibits to be seen in Minneapolis. Many posters were made and dis- played on bulletin boards to announce meetings and social events. Three years ago the club started a museum case, which is now a permanent addition to the high school. Several specimens are added each year. This year ' s club intends to purchase at least one new specimen to add to the varied collection of small animals, birds, and precious stones.

OBcrg T Roman Classical Club Founded in 1928 To promote interest in the classics HE Roman Classical Club was organized in 1928 for the purpose of pro- moting interest in classical life and history. Miss Evelyn Thoreson, Latin instructor, has been the capable adviser this year. Eligibility for membership requires one semester of Latin. Thus a large number of freshmen students were admitted at the beginning of the second semester. A formal initiation was held in the cafeteria one evening early this spring. After impressive candlelight ceremonies, games and refreshments were enjoyed. This organization has chosen purple and gold as its colors, and the motto is Carpe diem. or Seize the day. The pin is a gold C with a scroll as a background. The club meeting once every three weeks, has held several interesting meetings. Some of these have been business meetings; some are devoted to the study of ancient gods, legends, and customs. Of course there have been social meetings. The Classical Club entertained the French Club at a picnic and a Christmas party which was held in conjunction with the French Club meeting. For an assembly program members of the club dramatized an ancient myth. The outstanding event of the year is the Roman Classical Banquet to which all the members come clad in togas. Toasts are made by several members representing various ancient gods and men.

The purpose of the judging teams is to emphasiz.e the selection ot im- proved classes of livestock, traming and accuracy of observation, and to develop sound judgment and to develop an appreciation of classes of animals and crops. To secure a place on one ot the judging teams a boy must be eligible in four subjects. He is not eligible during any six weeks period in which he is below grade. Scholarship is the primary factor in determining a person ' s status on the judging team. Members of the team which competed at the various contests are: poultry judging, Wilfred Denison. Howard Carll. George McFarland: crop judging, Sidney Arndt, Arthur Lesch. Zephryn Marsh; general livestock, Raymond Mon- nahan, James Hillier. Richard irrington : dairy judging. Richard Warrington. Francis Sheedy. Melvin Evenson. Clinton Becker. The team went to New Prague November 7. where the boys competed against fifteen teams composed of three members each from all parts of Southern Minnesota. The first award is a trophy for each division. The crop judging team placed fourth and the poultry judging team placed third in the contest. On March 28 the boys went to the Iowa State College for practice judging work. The team will attend the state contest to be held at the University Farm June 6-8. where they will compete against 78 teams. Raymond Monnahan and Zephryn Marsh brought honors home from St. Paul. Raymond placed fourth in judging general livestock and Zephryn placed sixth in the judging of horses. The work of judging is taken up first in the class room in theory and by pictures. Then practice judging is done on the various larms for experience in judging the various types of livestock. In this way the boys learn to tell the good animal from a poor one, and to think accurately, clearly, and quickly.

The advisers arc S. W. Christian, J. Golberg, and C. A. Nelson. This organization is of such a nature that any boy in senior high school, who exhibits commendable qualities, can obtain membership. The regular business meetings arc held twice each month. After the regular business is dispensed with, subjects of a constructive, educational nature are presented by different people from all walks of life. Then there is the social side of the Hi-Y. The bean-feeds of this club have become an annual affair. So Ims the Father-Son Banquet become an anticipated event. During the two weeks of each month when there are no business meetings the club meets for the use of the gymnasium. The Austin club sends delegates to the Officers Training Conference and the regular Hi-Y Regional Conference each year. At these meetings a great deal of information is gathered from other clubs that enable the local club to be of greater value to the school. There arc always nationally famous men present at these conferences, who present inspirational messages. The Hi-Y of Austin is composed of boys representing every activity in school. The yearly program is carried on under the supervision of capable faculty advisers. It is a democratic organization conducted for the benefit of the school and the community.

This year besides publishing the regu- lar editions of the paper, the staff also published an e.xtra or Baby Sentinel . This was distributed to the patrons of Open House and proved to be a helpful guide to the parents and friends of the students. Five students. Dorothy Byers. Shirley Petrehn. Rebecca Proctor.

The Council meets at alternative periods once a week. Special meetings may be called by the president or adviser. The adviser of the Council is Mr. Christian. Ther e are several standing committees appointed by the Council that serve for the entire school year. This year the committees are as follows; assembly committee, lost and found committees, social committee, locker room committee, ushering committee, and pep club committee. Each committee has a member of the faculty as its adviser. The president appoints standing and special committees and determines to which committee action is to be referred unless otherwise specified. Each council member must report to his home room the action of each council meeting, and he must report tiack to the council the things that need attention. In various ways the student council aids in raising the standards of Austin High School. OFFICERS President NOR. l.

Wii Mixed Chorus RUSKIN says, Music is the first, the simplest, and the most effective of all instruments of moral instruction. All ages and races have paid homage to music, but it is comparatively a short time ago since choruses were intro- duced into the high schools. The public school curriculum of twenty-five or thirty years ago included only one or two short periods a week of singing by the entire school, but there were no musical divisions in which special work could be carried on. This year the mixed chorus consists of sixty-two members who are given the opportunity of developing their musical talent under the direction of Mr. C. Vittorio Sperati, At the beginning of the year, a large group of students took part in preliminary try-outs for the chorus. The chorus was picked as the result of these try-outs which tested the students ' ability to sight read, and the tone quality of their voices. The mixed chorus made several appearances during the school year. This group first appeared in concert February 6 singing the following selections: Farewell to the Forest by Mendelssohn: Kentucky Babe by Geibel : and Morning by Oley Speaks. The principal performance in which the members of the chorus appeared was the operetta. The Gypsy Rover, a romantic musical comedy by May Hewcs Dodge and John Wilson Dodge. This was presented April 12 and 13. The mixed chorus participated in the Southern Minnesota Music Festival held in the spring. At this event they sang Listen to the Lambs by Nathaniel Dett: Deep River a negro spiritual; Goodnight, Goodnight. Beloved by Pinsuti: and And the Glory of the Lord from The Messiah by Handel with the combined choruses of all cities participating. OFFICERS President GER. LD MALONEY Vice-President JOHN L.

OFFICERS President KATHLEEN BAUMGARTEN Vice-President SUZANNE SINCLAIR Secretary-Treasurer RUTH BAUMGARTEN Librarian NORMA ELLEFSON Page seventy-one The Gypsy Rover A COLORFUL operetta, The Gypsy Rover, was presented to an enthusiastic audience in the high school auditorium on April 12 and 13 by the mixed chorus accompanied by the salon orchestra under the direction of C. Vittorio Sperati assisted by Miss Charlotte Larson. The settings were in a gypsy camp near London and the garden of the Sir George Martendale estate. The audience was entertained by the splendid impersonations of gypsy ruffians, English fops, social butterflies, and English country gentlemen. Beautiful costumes and picturesque scenery added much to the appeal of the operetta. The Gypsy Rover is in three acts and is built around the character of Rob, later known as Sir Gilbert Howe, of English nobility. Rob is stolen when an infant by his nurse, Meg, who later becomes the wife of Marto, a gypsy. Rob grows to manhood among the gypsies believing Meg and Marto to be his parents. It happens one day. while riding with her fiancee. Lord Craven. Lady Constance Martendale becomes lost in the woods. They wander to the gypsy camp where Constance and Rob meet and fall in love at first sight. In Act two Rob goes to the home of Constance and serenades her. They plan to elope but are overheard by Craven who informs Sir George, the father of Constance, and plans are made to capture Rob. This is successfully accomplished and Rob is thrown into prison, but later escapes. Two years elapse and Rob has come into his estates, his identity having been proved by Meg. He becomes a successful composer, a friend of the Prince, and a social lion. Constance has remained true to her love for Rob and on his return to England, he woos and wins her for his wife. There are also pretty love affairs between Nina and Captain Jerome, and Zara and Sinfo: and many comedy scenes by Snifo and Marto. The gypsy rover, Rob, was played by Arnold Dibble and Lady Constance, Kathleen Weiland. Lord Craven. Gerald Maloney : Marto, the gypsy chieftain, Robert Grise. and Meg, his wife, Helen Holgate: Sinfo and Zara were presented by Norman Stucwer and Mildred Booher: Nina, Lady Constance ' s sister, and Captain Jerome: by Betty Hanna and John Lafferty. The father of Lady Constance. Sir George Martendale, was played by Robert Woodward. Other minor parts were Sir Toby Lyon and McCongle. Page sevenly-lwu The Importance of Being Earnest WITH a splendid cast composed ol nine members ot the junior class ably directed by Miss Charlotte Larson, high school dramatic coach. The Importance of Being Earnest. was presented in the high school audi- torium. November 24. before a large and appreciative audience. The play, a modern English drama, was written by Oscar Wilde, the eminent English play- wright. The role of Sir John Worthing. J. P.. the English country gentleman, was played especially well by Sheldon Vance. Nathan Banfield as the sophisticated muffin-eating Englishman, Algernon Moncrieff, enacted his part with a natural ease that was characteristic of the part. Mildred Olson, the fortune-hunting mother, who continually hoped to become a mother-in-law, portrayed her part exceedingly well. Janet French cleverly and interestingly enacted the roll of the very obedient daughter, the Honorable Gwendolen Fairfax. Helen Holgate is deserving of much commendation in her interpretation of Cecily Cardew, Sir John ' s ward. Dorothy Russell, as Miss Prism, the governess of Cecily, enacted her part very well. The role of the Reverend Canon Chasuble, D. D., the county priest, who supplied much of the humor in the play was realistically por- trayed by Howard Babcock. Two minor, yet very significant parts were filled by Robert Marboe as Lane, the manservant, and John Woodward as Merriman. the house butler. The story which centered around this very modern English tamily was extremely amusing and interesting. The character, Algernon Moncrieff, who is Sir John ' s friendly enemy, devises a fictitious cousin whose name is Bunbury and goes to sec him whenever he does not wish to see Lady Bracknell. Gwen- dolen ' s mother. Thus, he is able to spend that time more enjoyably and profit- ably and as he pleases. Sir John wishes to marry Gwendolen but he cannot satisfactorily trace his family tree. Many complications arise which made the three-act play more human and pleasing. Several members of the class assisted in the performance: staff manager. Robert Sinclair; property committee. Olive Esse and Arthur Vogel; costume committee, Craticc Smith; make up committee, Charlotte Qualey; and prompter. Virginia Christcnson. Music was furnished by the Austin High School Salon Orchestra under the direction of C. V. Sperati. Page seventy -three SECOND ROW: Bjniicld. Rcnncbohm. B FIRST ROW: Braun. Anderson. Johns Dougherty.

Dirk and Bauble Founded in 193 3 ' Tu tram m expression and dramatic technique THIS year twenty-six seniors interested in drama met on December 1 1 and organized under the direction of Miss Charlotte Larson, the Dirk and Bauble which means comedy and tragedy. It was desired to have the Dirk and Bauble continue next year by pledging the underclassmen. Their ability will be shown by their work in previous representations from which they have earned the points necessary for membership. A committee drew up a constitution containing the requirements necessary for membership in the Dirk and Bauble; and it was accepted by the club. The new members will be initi- ated into the club each spring in a formal initiation. During the year many interesting meetings were held at the homes of the various members. Miss Charlotte Larson, adviser of the club, was in charge of one of the most outstanding meetings. She spoke on Terminology of Dra- matics from which many essentia! rudiments of acting were derived. Margaret Graham and Norman Stcuwcr discussed various one-act plays they had read. The club ' s most outstanding accomplishment of the year was the presenta- tion of the senior class play, The Queen ' s Husband. Various committees of the club are: make-up committee, Margaret Ander- son and Dorothy Byers; stage crew, Norman Steuv er, Robert Grise, and Robert Smith.

The membership this year consists of twenty-two students who arc inter- ested in dramatic arts. The members of the club are striving to gain a better understanding of the methods of dramatization through a study of make up procedure and an appreciation of the finished technique of the better dramatic productions. Meetings have been held once a month to discuss points of interest and importance. The members have not only had the enjoyment of presenting several plays during the past two years, but they have also been receiving an excellent background for a continuation of this type of work in their Junior and Senior years of high school. Last year two one-act plays were given at the Junior and Senior assemblies for the enjoyment of the student body. The Courtship of Miles Standish was presented on a Thanksgiving Day program and a comedy. He Said a nd She Said was later produced. This year Clare Krumen ' s Robbery was cast for interpretation and produced at both assemblies. The roles were taken by Donna Mac Kinch. Palmer Sathei. Jack Williams. Arlene Havens, and Lew Reeve.

Cleveland Junior High Drama Club Founded in 1932 To luquami the lumur hu h sUnh ' nts iciih the arts of acting and speaking distinctly AS a need was felt of giving the younger students a chance to express their dramatic instinct, the Junior High Drama Club was organized under the supervision of Miss Ruth Wergedahl. It consisted of twenty-six members who were chosen by the the advisers. Students from the seventh, eighth, or ninth grade are ehgible for membership. This year the club is functioning with the large membership of thirty- seven. The meetings are held six times during the school year: and their aim is to give each member a useful acquaintance with stage terms, simple practice in the art of pantomime, practice hints in stage conduct, and to provide occasions for the exchange of talents as well as participation in assemblies. The assemblies in which the members have been active this year arc: the Thanksgiving program in which they assisted Miss Knight ' s English class: Christmas, Act II of The Toy Shop : and at the Valentine ' s Day program they presented the one-act fantasy play by Oliphant Do, The Maker of Dreams. The cast consisted of the following members: Pierrot. Kenneth Wel- ken: Pierrette. Jane Grise: Maker of Dreams, Robert Aughey: and they were assisted by Frank XWJls, John Gillam, Donald Jorgenson, Arlyne Hillcrud, and Sylvia Wright.

' The Street of Life, the ..ymnasium and cafeteria were the scene of a delightful junior-senior prom. Friday evening. May 26. Three hundred and fifty guests includ- ing members of the board of education, faculty, juniors, and seniors comprised the group who were present. The cafeteria was artistically decorated with streamers and bouquets of apple blossoms. The gymnasium had been transformed by the committee under the supervision of Miss Alvyna Mills, art instructor, and Cuy O. ToUerud into an outdoor world with a canopy of blue streamers and huge brilliant-colored awnings. A six-thirty o ' clock dinner was served in the high school cafeteria by the home economics department under the direction of Miss Delia Grubb and Miss Maude Vest. The toast program was in charge of Robert Gnse and the follow- ing speeches were given: - ' Street Opened, Kenneth Knop ; Street Closed, Emil Kehret: Crossroads, Superintendent S. T. Neveln: Main-Street. Prin- cipal P B. Jacobson; and ' Detours, Mr. E. C. Banfield. Dancing in the high school gymnasium to the music of a ten piece orchestra furnished the entertain- ment for the remainder of the evening. The class advisers were Miss M.nam Herr and V. G. Wiehoff.

Hansel and Gretel. April 18. in the auditorium. Almost everyone is familiar with this old fairy story. Hansel and Gretel. who are lost in the woods, find the old witch ' s house which is made of gingerbread, chocolate cream, and all good things to eat. The witch catches the children and attempts to bake them into ginger bread. Hansel and Gretel outwit her, and she is the one who is baked in the oven. The father and mother of the boy and girl appear and everyone is very happy and thankful. Several local children were used in the play to portray the parts of angels in one scene. A great deal of interest was shown by the students and towns- people when this opera was given. THE QUEENS HUSBAND The senior play given this year was The Queen ' s Husband. Miss Charlotte Larson, ciramatic coach, cast and directed this production. The action took place in a royal palace where the queen, a very regal and dignified character, attempted to do her duty by her country by running the affairs of state. The king, an easy going man, on the surface, added a great deal of comedy to the play with his broad humor. A love affair between Prin- cess Ann and Granton. a secretary to the king, added the necessary romantic touch. A revolution broke out which caused a great deal of excitement. Members of the senior class portrayed the parts excellently. Although the type of play was quite different from any given for sometime, the play was very successful. MOTHER AND DAUGHTER BANQUET Every year the junior and senior Ericndship Club Mother and Daughter banquet brings the girls, mothers, and lady instructors together at an informal banquet. It was held this year May 1, in the cafeteria. Pins were presented to the girls who had worked on various committees during the year and who had given the most service to the organization. To the girl who had done the most outstanding work, five dollars was awarded. JUNIOR -SENIOR RECEPTION Each year the junior-senior reception closes the social affairs of another school year. The seniors were royally entertained this year at the annual prom. The social events of the evening began with a delightful banquet served in the cafeteria. The faculty, board of education, and their wives were guests. A program consisting of several interesting speeches and toasts con- cluded that part of the evening ' s entertainment. The party then adjourned to the gymnasium, which was gaily decorated in correlation with the theme of the reception, An Evening In Paris. The remainder of the evening was spent dancing to the music of Vern Winter ' s orchestra. EXHIBIT Patrons, parents, and friends of the public schools had an opportunity to view an exhibit of the work from every grade and department of the Austin School system at the annual public school exhibit May 3 and 4. The walls in the corridors and the rooms were lined with gay posters, booklets, and art work. A musical program was presented in the auditorium under the supervision of C. Vittorio Sperati and Miss Gladys MacFarlane, supervisors of music of the entire public school system. BIG EIGHT BANQUET The Big Eight Championship football team was entertained at a banquet in the cafeteria, December 11. Coach Bernic Bierman, head football coach at the University of Minnesota, was guest speaker. Several interesting speeches were given by Superintendent Neveln. Ralph Daigneau, and Coach Sangster. The climax of the evening was the presentation of the gold footballs to the boys on the team and a gold football to Coach Sangster.

Hemm Football THE accomplishments of the 1933 undefeated Big Eight champs go down in the annals of the history of the Austin sport realm along side the memorable teams of the past. Under the powerful floodlights Coach E. Y. Sangstcr s team won nine games, amassed the huge total of 29 3 points for the 25 of the opposing teams, and had their goal line crossed only four times. In the initial game of the 1933 football season on September 15. the Austin football team downed the St. Augustine football team by a score of 50-0. The second game of the season matched the big powerful Austin team with the elusive Charles City eleven on September 20. For the first game of the Big Eight conference. Austin traveled to Mankato and downed the Millers 19-0 on September 30. The Mankato eleven put uji a stiff resistance, but the bucking and fast stepping of the local backs were more than they could cope with. The 32-13 score, in favor of the Scarlets, was not indicative of the heat of the battle on that seventh day of October with Rochester as the opponents. On the following Friday the Sangster- men humbled Red Wing by pushing over three touchdowns, the final score being 19-0. Kosta of Red Wing caused the local ' s safety man considerable trouble. Austin had a com- paratively easy time on October 1 8 when they swamped the Owatonna Braves by a score of (continued J Page eighty-one FOOTBALL— ( continued I 45-0. The entire team performed well, and towards the end of the game were relieved by the eager subs. Held for three quarters without a score, but finally pushing over two touchdowns in the closing minutes of play is the synopsis of the Winona game, which was one of the hardest of the year. After this game the Austin team needed only one more game to clinch the Big Eight Championship and on the next Saturday the local fans anxiously awaited the out com eof the game with Faribault. In this game the Scarlets ran rough shod over Faribault by a 67-0 score to earn an undisputed right to the crown. The annual Armistice day tilt with Albert Lea was the last game of the season. During this contest Austin played one of the poorest games of the season, but came out on top by a 27-6 score thereby ending one of the most successful seasons in the history of the Austin high school. Six of the members were elected to a position on the all Big Eight team. Earnest Peterson, the powerful Austin center was elected to the position of Captain on this mythical team. Three of Sangster ' s men were given places on the second team picked by the sport ' s writer in the Big Eight towns. The remaining members were given recognition in the honorable mention. Coach Bierman, head coach of the University of Minnesota football activities, was the principal speaker at the all city banquet given in honor of the Big Eight football champs. The boys were awarded gold footballs also as the final tribute to the famous team. Mr. Jacobson was the toastmaster. and Red Dawson, one of the other coaches at the University, spoke on the same program. Five regulars of the team will not be back next year as they arc graduating this season. BIG EIGHT CHAMPION SENIORS Page euihtii-tioo SPCOND ROW Mr. H.iintr. Evcnson. V FIRST ROW: I=jirb.inks. L-irl.

During the playing sea.son the Red and White cagers under the coaching of Mr. Rich- ard Arney played nineteen games. They won twelve oi these games and drop- ped seven. The team opened the season against the Si. Augustine five on December 1 and defeated them 27-12. A game with the Carleton freshmen on Dc-cenv ber 4 resulted in the first defeat of the season by 18-7 margin. On December 8 a hiohly tauted Faribault team came down to Austin and were defeated in a thriUing game 13-12. Adams proved to be a stubborn foe in the game on December 15: they held the Arneymen to 16 points, but could only garner 10 for themselves. On the 22nd of December Austin defeated Rochester by one point at their gym. The score was 1 ■ - 1 6 when the final gun sounded. Winona staged a last quarter rally on January 5 to down the Arne ' - men by a score of 23-17. The score at the half was 11-5 for Austin. On January 1 2 Austin played the best game of ball that they had played fc,r quite some time when they defeated the Rochester club on the home floor 29-20. A basket in the last five second by Don Hemmer won a decision over Northfield 15-14 In the game with Mankato on January 26 the local boys had a littk tough luck The floor that they played on was very slippery and they could not get going and lost to the Big Eight champs 24- 1 5. On February 2 came the game that the local fans had been anticipating, tl... Alhprr I ea contest The game was even all the way until the last quarter when the Tigers t rgd ahead and won 22-14. Red Wing, 1933 state basket ba Icl amps! ' was the next team that was played. The local team won he contest 24-18. On the following night Carleton won a return game 18-12 On the 16 and 17 Austin won two ball games from Owatonna and St. Augustine, respectively. They defeated the Braves 26-15 and the Shamrocks 33 14 Albert Lea was vanquished in the final game of the season 22 21. The score at the half was 12-3. Austin. (continued) Page eighty-three BASKET BALL— (conimued) In the sub-district tournament LcRoy was downed 57-4, and Adams was downed 21-18. The district tournament was held at Albert Lea. Austin defeated Grand Meadow in the first i ame 42-19. and was swamped in the second by Albert Lea 28-11. Austin high school should have one of the best basket ball teams in the history of the school next season. Out of the entire eight men on this year ' s squad only two of them will graduate. None of the so-called regulars will graduate. The five men that usually started the games are all either juniors or sophomores. During the playing season the Arneymcn compiled four hundred and nineteen points for three hundred and twenty-seven for the opposing teams. In the Big Eight conference they won five contests and lost, finishing the season with a percentage of .556. They ended the season being in fourth place in the Big Eight race. The Scarlets averaged twenty-two points per game: the best that opponents could do was seventeen per contest. The Carleton block style of play that Coach Arney taught his team was an altogether new style in Austin High School; the system had good results and should win many ball games for Austin high next season and perhaps in years to come. The regular playing season found the Arney cagers playing better ball on the whole. During the tournaments the boys suffered somewhat from buck fever. The last game that Austin played, the finals in the district tournament at Albert Lea, local fans felt that Austin in no ways did justice to themselves. This season it appeared as if our old rivals. Albert Lea, had all of the luck, for the Scarlets were at no time able to conquer the fighting Tigers. The two times that they crossed paths during the regular season, Austin was defeated both times by strong last half rallies by the Tigers.

' Much credit must be given to the faculty members who work with these bovs. They gave their time to these boys and showed exceedingly great in- terest The coaches were: William Wiehoft. Leland Orfield, Ray Wescott. and Johnel Golberg. who worked faithfully with the boys at the Shaw gymnasium, and then climaxed the season by promoting a tournament in the high school gym. On March 8 Mr. Wescott ' s team defeated Mr. WiehofT ' s quint by one point The final score was 14- H. It was one of the closest and hardest fought games of the tournament. It is surprising to watch the classy ball that these teams play. The boys who will play on the varsity in future years will find the training that they received under the supervision of these men will prove The second game in the afternoon found Mr. Golberg ' s team playing against the classy Orfield five. Though Mr. Golbergs team fought to the finish, it was not able to cope with the fast ball that the Orfield-coached team plaved. , , The four teams that entered the tournament were very evenly mauiiecl. During the tournament there were two games which were won by one point; the other game was won by five points. On Friday night Mr. Wescott ' s and Mr. Orfields teams were matched ,n the finals The game was neck and neck all the way. but the Orfield team came through to defeat their opponents by one point, and thai team won the 19 34 junior high school tournament. The boys playing on Mr. Orfields quint were: I ovv, Jarvis, Dmx ' nberg. OMorro. H. Nelson. Block. Qualley, Kelly. Orr and Hummel. Mr. Gol- berg s recruits were: Launtzen. S. Lane.

Aspcr, OIsc I rack AFTER a season ' s lapse track has again rcscumcd and with C. A. Nelson as coach, the men are trying to restore this sport to its former prestige. In former years track has been one of the major sports but with the advent of the depression this sport has been on the decline. Since the new school was built in 1929, with the exception of one year track has been an established sport on the athletic progrom. Austin High track teams have toured the Northwest and have competed with some of the best track teams in the state. During this season six track meets were scheduled: the interclass meet which was staged the latter part of April: the Rochester meet there. April 28: Shattuck, May 5, there: the district meet here, May 12: Big Eight meet at Winona, May 19; and the regional meet at Rochester, May 26. There were two meets held at the athletic field which consisted of the district meet which was practically a duel meet as Albert Lea was the only team that furnished much competition: and the interclass meet which attracted much attention.  . With a championship football team usually goes a good track team. The championship Big Eight team furnished good material for the track events. As a result of not having track on the athletic program of 1933, there were very few boys who had experience in any of the events. Some of the large linemen who were on the championship eleven were counted on in some of the weight events, principally the shot-put, discus, and the javelin. Lack of interest on the part of the student body may cause Austin High not to be represented among the 1935 track teams of the state. Since a large amount of expense is entailed in travelling about, if this sport is not supported, it may be dropped indefinitely. Page eighty-six ' M SECOND ROW: Ekedjl. Bo FIRST Row Ottcrslcom, Mochlmai Not in picture idanl, Rou(h. Mr. Nelson, Probst. Schiibcr. Johns. Boys Swimming UNDER the tutelage of C. A. Nelson, the Austin high school swimming team has been more active this year than in the past few seasons. The team is composed mostly of undergraduates and the school is assured of a crack team for next year. During the season the local team swam in six meets. Of these six they won three. In addition to the regular swimming season the Nelsonmen were invited to one of the biggest swimming events in the state, the Invitational Meet held at the pool at Gustavus Adolphus college. Competing against several of the best teams in the state, the Austin tankmen made a good name for themselves. The first meet of the season was held at Shattuck Military Academy. The Scarlet swimmers were completely outclassed by the older and more ex- perienced Cadets. The final score was 47-28. Shattuck has one of the best teams in the state as they have not lost a contest this year. They have en- countered such teams as Edison high of Minneapolis and several of the college freshmen teams in the Minnesota conference. On February 3. Shattuck came to Austin to swim in a return meet. The underclassmen, who had not been in quite enough competition, could not supply the extra punch needed when the race became close, thereby losing another meet to the Cadets. 1 his time the score was 49-26. When Coach Nelson picks competition for his swimming team, he does not look for the easy ones: he scours around until he can find real class. In Rochester he picked a very formidable opponent, for on February 10, the Austin swimming team traveled to Rochester for the first contest of the home- to-home meets. They were severely swamped by the Rockets 49-26. In the return meet with the Rockets the tables were turned. Austin took five firsts out of the possible eight, and won enough of the seconds to assure them a victory. After the mist had cleared away, the score was 19-36 in favor of the Nelsonmen. Two meets with Pillsbury were the last regular meets of the year. In the first one in the home pool the Scarlets came out the victors with 49 points, the Cadets winning 26. On March 20. the second of the meets was held in the Pillsbury pool: the Soldiers lost again by a 51-24 score. Page eighty-seven SECOND ROW: Miss EikcnKuy. Thompson. FIRST ROW: Kimc, Voss, Monson, K Junior Girls ' Basket Ball BASKET BALL, that thrilling game in wliich two forwards strive and struggle to put the ball into the basket while two guards attempt to pre- vent that achievement, is tiic sport which has become most popular with the girls in Austin high school. The basket ball that is now played was intro- duced when Miss Pearl Eikenbary came to Austin. It is the three court basket ball and has been found to be very successful. It is not too strenuous and yet is very exciting. The girls responded in large numbers during this season which lasted for nearly two months. The period of training proved most exciting. for each girl aspired to be chosen as a representative on her class team. When the teams were finally selected, a series of exciting games were played to determine the championship. Although the seniors offered stiff competition, the juniors, who have won for two consecutive years, carried off the laurels. The teams are as follows: seniors, forwards, Marjorie Stanek and Grace Gleason: guards, Norma Howells and Rachel Weseman: jumping center, Arlene Lesch: running center, Gladys Jarvis: and substitute, Kathleen Holdren. Junior forwards, Margaret Kelly and Sylvia Kime: guards, Olive Esse and Mae Mon- son: jumping center. Lois Voss: running center. Alice Thompson, and sub, Dona Barr. Sophomore forwards, Beverly Lund and Ruth Fox: guards, Martha Anderson and Frances Wells: jumping center. Ona Karnetz: running center, Lorraine Potter, and subs, Delia Dufty and Irene Block.

Johnv Volley Ball EACH year an increasing number of girls participate in the first athletic activi- ty offered to the girls in the lall. volley ball. This year was no exception. for nearly one hundred girls took part in the tournament. The teams arc made up of eighteen girls from each class. Very little was accomplished by the senior class for there were no girls entering into this sport. The juniors carried off the honors, with the sophomores and freshmen giving them stiff competition. Pep Club T HIS year a new organization has been created for girls through the Student Council. It is called the Pep Club and as the name implies, its purpose to to creates more enthusiasm in the school. There arc fifteen members and an adviser. The adviser this year has been very busy for it has been her duty to see that the organization was started prop- erly. This work has been well managed by Miss Pearl Eikenbary. One of the outstanding accomplishments of the club during this year was the vaudeville assembly program, which was received by the student body with enthusiasm seldom equalled. . li s Eikonbjry.

Girls ' Swimmins MUCH to the chagrin of the senior higli. the mighty freshmen mermaids carried off the honors in the intermural swimming meet. Swimming has become a popular sport among the girls, and, except for the seniors, each class was represented by a large number of enthusiasts. After considerable practice Miss Pearl Eikenbary chose the teams. There were two inter-class events; the first was to decide which class was best represented and the second was to give individual honors to the three best divers in the school. In the second event Dorothy Barnitz won first place in diving. Alice Thompson and Virginia Sorflaten tied for second. Alice and Virginia were again judged and this time Alice took second place with Virginia receiving third. L. S. Orficld acted as judge of this meet. In each event the girls were required to do the standing front, running front, and one optional dive. The seventh and eighth grade both have good teams and show much promise for the future. Betty Ousley does a back-flip that makes the older swimmers envious. Much can be expected from her in a few years. The ninth graders deserve exceptional recognition, for each girl out of the eight contestants can be called a champion in herself. Although Virginia Sor- flaten ranked highest as a diver, there were many others who gave her stiff com- petition. The sophomores had the distinction of having the girl ' s champion diver, Dorothy Barnitz. on their team. Iva Scholl and Ruth Fox also did remark- ably well. Considering the scarcity of participants, the junior girls did exceedingly well. The teams were as follows: seventh grade. Janet Baxter. Edna Hall, Betty Ousley, Rosella Peterson, Mildred Snell, and Camilla Stephenson: eighth grade, Patricia Black. Harriet Dugan. Merle Hall. Myrtle Kime. Bettv Meek, and Susannc Sinclair: ninth grade. Margaret Daigneau. Jane Grise. Helen Ousley, Florence Cleveland, Dorothy Hendricks, Virginia Sorflaten. and Helen Potter: tenth grade Martha Anderson. Frances Wells. Dorothv Barnitz. Iva Scholl, and Ruth Fox: eleventh grade. Alice Thompson. Sylvia Kime. and Lois Voss.

As I was passing on the streets of New York, who should I meet but our president of ' 34. Austin High School. Yes. none other than NORMAN STUF-AVER — he hadn ' t changed much, in fact was quite the same. Still wore his monocle, and slightly slurred his r ' s. He has gone Natzy and is placing wreaths on the tombs of the unknown soldiers in place of Hitler. The next member of our group wc must remember is JAMES SATHER who has taken over government affairs and is Speaker of the House. It is rumored that he has been filibustering over two weeks in the House now on whether high school students may put First Tuesday after the first Monday in November. or whether just The First Tuesday will suffice as the answer in the State Board Examinations on the question of election. I believe he is coming in first. The next course, is our honorable secretary of our dear class, .MISS MAE USEM. She has finally given up her idea of being President when she found that her cabinet couldn ' t answer to roll call by suggestions for programs on future meetings. She is now out in the Gobi desert teaching the Gobi-Gobi ' s about the fifth dimension by permission of the copyright owner. And then we come last and most certainly least to the dear treasurer. ROBERT GRISE. After he has finished his five year course at Cincinnati in one quarter, he has taken up writing, his two most successful contributions being My Early Life Among the Wild Indians. and his essay on Being Valedic- torian of My Class. He finally has learned to add and with this decided virtue, we hope to hear again from him. — IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMII — A B C D E F H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V w XYZ s for Arnold who does like to preach, s for Banfield the girl who ' s a peach, s for Kathryn the last name is Wood, s for Dorothy who for her rights stood, s for Ernest who a gold football drew, s for Felch a good worker, too. s for Hilbert who dresses just fine, s for Irene, one very litttle girl, s for James whose hair can ' t help but curl. s for Kermit who does love to type, s for Lesch whom everyone likes, s for Moore, our one star half-back. s for Norman who never did slack, s for Orphia who sure was a belle, s for Pearce who also was swell, s for Question that all of us do ask. s for Robert who assumes many a task, s for Stephenson, the greatest Blue Beard. s for Thompson whose like I ne ' er heard, s for Usem, secretary of our class, s for Veverka who ' s neither least nor the last, s for Welken, very smart it is said, are the stories the journalists do dread.
