A few couldn't afford to have a perman- ent and they did so want to make a nice appearance, but you know how it is. Rose Andrzejewski, Lois Mere- dith, Lillian Wasum, Harriet Rol- off, Anna Walutkiewicz, Helen Hryniewiecki, Virginia Sinclair, Sophie Kumershek, Lucille Grunau, and Lorraine WOIH all send you their best wishes. May I hear from you soon, but not ninth hours please. Your Freshman Girl Friend. The girls presented a play, On the Park Bench , in October-October of all months! What is the use of us girls attending the school dances if the dance partner is in the orchestra. It wouldnlt do for us to dance with someone else, he may be jealous. We're for outside orchestras. The poor photographer. Imagine his embarrassment when he had to take pictures of a group of girls, and girls only, in the girls' gym. Poor Mr. Meyer. Miss Jennie Hudaj will make Bing Crosby unpopular. By whistling like a bird, she makes her compan- ions believe they're in the Black Forest. Virginia Georgieff!

PAGE 2 0 GIRLS' CLUB A l:Y6Sl IIT'Idf1lS Letter Sophie Kumerslsele .,.., Treasurer Lucille Grunau, .Sergeant-at-Arms Helen Hryniewicki ..,.. Secretary Lois Meredith ......... President Harriet Roloj ...,. Vice-president Bay View High School, Lenox Street Porch, June 9, 1933 Dear Mr. Principal, Men Teachers, and Boy Friends: I am just a little freshman girl and I think itis a shame that you can,t belong to the Girls' Club. Mother says, Do unto others , you know, and so I'm going to do unto you, but remember I like secrets too. Of course, lots of our fun is due to the Math department, and that's some department. I'm only a freshie, but I can appreciate the glass models Roman Kwasniewski, Herbert Riedel, and Charles Ullenberg made for geometry. Maybe Miss Welsh'd let you touch them, but she just let's us peek at them through the cupboard door. Math students are awfully smart. Miss Jameson says we,ve never had so many of them take competi- tive uexamsl' before. And can our Math teachers figure! fThat's from doing cross-word puzzles lots.j Why, when we ran out of pop and buns for our party, you ought to have seen Miss Jameson Chevrolet', out the back yard to get more, while Miss Welsh told the hungry girls, Oh, yes, there are lots, lots more . And did you ever hear of the mock trial? Well, Miss Lane says I shouldn't tell you this, but I just want to see whether or not she'll cross it out. Jeanne McMahon, in the role of Mrs. I-Iouseman, walked right out of her costume and Miss Roh- leder, Miss Miller, and even Miss Thornburg couldnlt trail her. Miss O'Callaghan, in true Irish fashion, de- clared it was a part of the play. How these teachers play with facts. Now was it? Perhaps you recall seeing the poster The Truth About jane . I don't see how you could possibly forget it when Helen Woods broadcast it so loudly. You see she took the part of Aunt Jane and she was to fall in a faint, and believe me she did fall, but on a nicely filled pincushion. Ouch! she up and says, in her faint, mind you. That's why her mother wrote the excuse: Please excuse Helen,s absence from school. She was pricked into staying home! fsometimes that's why girls scream in the corridors.j Then another time we had a family album program. It was a scream. Virginia Sinclair, bicycle girl, forgot her bicycle-she couldn,t even End a kiddie car. QDid you know the one the Oracle borrowed for Philip Schneider was so badly bent it couldn't be used? Alfrieda Hintz was afraid to return it to the neigh- borslj You should have seen Lillian Wasum in an overstuffed parlor gown, and the bathing beauties of '96: Lorraine Wolff and Anne Walutkiewicz-temperature 110 degrees. Speaking of embarrassment, the dashing hero in Freckles and Pigtailsu, none other than Ralph Kaiser, fdid I forget to say blushing hero?j proved quite a problem when the cast was trying to persuade him to kiss the hand of Ruth Olsen, his stage mother. He thought Hortense Rutkowski much too daring to write such a play-and he goes to movies. Imagine. Why I've seen lots worse. Talk about amateur night. Our girls volunteered to do everything. fMiss O'Callaghan was a little wor- ried.j Virginia I-Iart, Betty Kuelmann, and Dorothy Raftenburg volunteered to be old maids. Imagine how bad you boys'd feel about that. And if you think Gladys Kuehn is funny on horseback, you should have seen her as an announcer. Terribly cute , Miss Jameson said. Jennie Hudaj gave her whistling numbers so well that I dare say she could stand competition with any of you male members.

Unlike most stories also, this story has no heroine fit has four hundred at least-in the backgroundj. I said these men are handsome. Handsome is as handsome does . Really, they are magicians and can do many wonderful things. Mr. Gillo's wooden fish can scale any adventure, Mr. Crawford's genial nature can warm the coldest nights, and the stories he tells about Arabia makes a joke of ninth hours. Mr. May's agility, Mr. Miller's four o'clock,s', Mr. Wiley's locker grip, and Mr. Osterndorf's American Legionn have won for these men a' club larger than that of ,lack the Giant Killer. But these men, great magicians though they are, cannot do all things alone. Their wives call them home much too early to do the family shopping, so they had the helpers, selected from the club by its members, assist them. The first semester these assistants had for their mascot an elephant, and were called Republicans. The assistant magician was Herbert Meyer aided by Arthur Bahr. The keeper of the golden shekels, under bond. was Henry Badurag the man with the quills was Ray Kiehlg and the keeper of the golden doors was Zigmund Tokarczyk. Together they prepared a course of study in which all participants scored excellent. It may be listed as follows: A football rally, starring Mr. Crawford for his oratorical doings, Armistice Day, starring the American Legiong Boys' Club-Girls' Club Dance, starring the great American Custom, the stag line, and the elec- tion, starring for whomever we voted. The next semester the election followed the Donkey's trail and Ray Bialk, Henry Badura, Ernest Lieb- mann, Robert and Virgil Hoffman sang the hee-haw chorus.
