FULLER Principal, Beaumont High School 1926-1937 This CADUCEUS is dedicated to the Memory of WILBUR N. FULLER whose inspiring help and en- couragement made this and previous issues possible. ff! 'D f 'I hree f Four lin illlemnriam By GENEVIEVE STEWART The late Wilbur N. Fuller, for eleven years principal of Beaumont High School, was born on January 5, 1881, in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He attended grammar school and high school in Grand Rapids. After graduation from the University of Michigan, he taught there. When he came to Saint Louis, in 1904, his immediate success was not only apparent but very remarkable because of his youth. He was only twenty-three. He was placed at Yeat- man High School in the capacity of a science teacher. Later he was advanced to the principalship of the same school, and when Beaumont High was built in 1926. he was appointed principal. At Beaumont he will be remembered for many reasons. He understood and be- lieved in the pupil. He knew how to keep a large body of different-viewed persons in harmony and happiness. In furthering outside activities he connected them inti- mately with school life. He directed sports, and through him Beaumont High gained envied trophies and wide admiration. Many fine tributes have been given to Mr. Fuller, but it seems to us most im- portant would be that he gave to Beau- mont High School the best of himself and all that Beaumont stands for has risen from his ideal. llll S llllllll l lllf lllti 7 H gig 'li if mil ll Wilbur N.

HUNT1Nc3'toN Assistant Principal Beaumont High School AN APPRECIATION By RUTH Ro'rHsctH1LD Monday. October I8, was a day that will live forever in the memory of everyone even remotely connected with Beaumont. On that day no one knew where to begin, what to do firstfno one, that is, but our loyal and faithful assistant principal. His presence of mind, his leadership, his fidelity were all that could be desired at such a time of stress. He had called a faculty meeting before school to arrange all necessary details with the teachers. Early in the morning session he called a meeting of the graduating class in the auditorium and asked them to assist by conducting in each advisory group a memorial service prepared by him. He arranged a special bulletin for the students and eliminated all unnecessary noise in the school, During the ensuing months he has directed affairs in Beaumont with kindness and sympathetic wisdom. For all this. if for nothing more, the school owes our dearly beloved assistant principal a debt of gratitude. The CADUCEUS Staff wishes to pay this sincere and heartfelt tribute to the man who made that hard day easier, the man who forgot his own sorrow in helping us bear ours, the man who set us an inspiring example of leadership and devotionfAlbert H. Huntington. S 1' .V K E1 f . gf I :'.u:gf- ..,, Seven SENIOR OFFICERS NIO'I l'OZ C1oI,oIasp VICTVORIAM PIER ITIDIEM CERIEEN. GOLD, AND BROWN SENIOR SPONSORS Mus I'I cum NH I , QI'I I I XIXI 1 XIII.

How important the work sounds to the student body of Beaumont High School, how awe-inspiring: how much dignity and respect it seems to demand! But now that we have attained the rank of seniors, we look back through our high school days not with a feeling of superiority, but with intermingled feelings of joy and regret-joy at having completed four years of study, regret at leaving behind four of the happiest years of our lives. Many of our classmates are looking forward to increasing their knowledge at colleges and universities: others will end their school days when they receive their diplomas. Though our paths may diverge, we shall retain as memories our struggles and triumphs with teachers and friends in all our classes and social groups. Our motto, Victoria per Fidem , which means Victory through Faith , seems uplifting in word structure as well as in meaning, and we know that if we strive with firm intent to adhere to its teaching with faith in our con- victions, we shall be more thorough and dependable in living up to our own possibilities. The significance of our colors, pirate gold, leaf green, and brown is complementary to that of our motto. The gleaming hope of pirate gold, the refreshing intimations of leaf green, and the sober note of brown which makes us reflect on the future, all are essential to our success in later life. President Douglas Hall Vice-President Artis Sassman Secretary Shirley Risk Treasurer Richard Horn Digest Correspondent Frances Sutton CADUCEUS Correspondent June Holzhausen fVeronica McGrath Executive Committee 3 Kenneth Deddens LRussell Paul To Miss Quellmalz and Mr. Hall, capable sponsors of our class, we wish to express our deepest and most sincere thanks for having piloted our class through a most successful term.

Y NEW SENIORS By AUBREY SONDERMAN After three years of eager anticipation we, the class of June 1938, are very enthusiastic about our entrance to our senior year at Beaumont. Our group, which consists of some of the school's most brilliant pupils and also some of the most outstanding athletes, is the largest class ever organized at Beaumont. In order to function efficiently, the class has elected the following oflicers: President Frank Grindler Secretary Virginia Marting Treasurer William Lochmoeller Digest Correspondent Dorothy Gaebler CADUCEUS Correspondent Aubrey Sonderman The chief social function during the new-senior term, a party, which was carefully planned by a special committee, proved to be an outstanding success. Not only did this party act as a medium through which all the members of the class became acquainted with one another, but it also afforded us one of our happiest days in high school. Now that we have completed three short years of high-school work, we look forward to graduation with just pride. Graduation is our ultimate goal, which we are striving to attain with the aid of our sponsors, Miss Quellmalz and Mr. Hall. 21 W ' 5-Vi. - r MM - - . '-: 1. 55' . , t..??i I ve A 4323. .si-1' l li..

TOMMY By GENEVIEVE STEWART VER since December the third, we of Beaumont High School, whenever we have heard the name Tommy ', have thought very pleasantly of the accomplished acting of the seniors and new seniors in Beau- 'bd' mont's most entertaining production of its history- Tommy . We have thought particularly of the charm of Alice Provencher, the masterfulness of Homer Boyd, the cunning of Edward Bayer, the conniving of Vera Swartz and William Wright, as well as the wizard coaching of Miss Anne Warner. Tommy Mills CI-Iomer Boydj is a virtuous, handsome young man in love with beautiful and puzzled Marie Thurber, impersonated excellently by Alice Provencher. Bernard CRussell Paulj is a rather boastful and glib-tongued young fellow also in love with Marie. Marie's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Thurber QWilliam Wright and Vera Swartzj want her to marry Tommy because he has been ever so kind to them, going so far as to bring Mrs. Thurber's brother ice-cream and Mr. Thurber a cigar every night for a year, and chatting with them while Marie waits impatiently. Mrs. Thurber's brother, played by Edward Bayer in the beginning of the play, pretends to like Bernard and conspires against Tommy by encouraging Marie to go out with Bernard. Judge Wilson CRay Weissgerberl, Mrs. Wilson CRuth Preusserj, who is a general nuisance, and their son Willie Uerry Satzj are neighbors of the Thurbers and aid splendidly in the success of the play. After David Tuttle finds that Bernard makes fun of his Abraham Lincoln collection, he proves a subtle worker by showing Tommy that the only way he can ever win Marie is to break loose from his conventional molly-coddle ways. He persuades him to change into a what-care-I, dashing, romantic young man. But Tommy Ends it almost impossible to insult the Thurbers. Tuttle lies to them and tells them Tommy is planning to underbid Mr. Thurber on a deal. This Tommy knows nothing at all about. Tommy, however, is dismissed from the Thurber home, and Marie, too, turns against him, since she believes he had intended to hurt her father. Tuttle finally tells the truth. The business troubles are all cleared up, making the way clear for Tommy's marriage, and both Tommy and Marie live happily ever after. When we remember the trials our young actresses and actors went through during rehearsals, we feel that they should be congratulated even more. On the night of the performance there was no evidence of the snags in preparation which had preceded, no such a thing as holding hands on an improvised sofa of four or five hard school chairs, nor any trotting all over creation hunting for a room suitable for rehearsing. No, on the night of the play everything was provided for: the days of makeshift were over: the time had come for the reward of all the practice and effort of play-making. Yet this effort had another kind of reward, too, for through the understanding and good humor of Miss Warner, their coach, the players will long cherish the memories of Mr. Thurber's weakness for cigars, the superfluity of proposals, the stomach that wouldn't stay in place, and the antics and anecdotes of Russell Paul on F orty-seven R ,,,L,.W.wf ,ul lu 4'lall7I sl A .

Special thanks and sincerest appreciation are given to the stage hands, the makeup committee, prompters, light committee, the publicity department, the orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Stamm, to Mr. Julius Tarling, and to all those who, though not in the actual cast, made Tommy a real success.

Last night, While he slept, He dreamed that his white mule Hitched to a buggy, Had run him Off the bridge And into Glazing Creek. Such an omen couldn't Be forgotten. Sad-hearted, Jasper Sutwood Knew quite well His time had come. The dream, his loss Of interest in the run of things, Together with his faded strength, Sort of brought an end to things. And he knew his time had come. Gloomy-hearted, Jasper Sutwood Took up hisgun. Very slowly. And with sure deliberation, He pointed his old musket Straight at His old white mule And shot him dead.

Fifty-one 1 '1 1- f T -.J IN THE DAY'S WORK By J OE DOWNS I-IE whistle up in the hoisting-house, high off the ground, blew a ,sip 5a shrill message to the sweating miners below that the day's work Clif'--3.7 d rm' was one. I When the men stepped out of the big ore bucket that also served as an elevator, they breathed a sigh of relief. Two women had been below that morning collecting subscriptions from the hard-working, fast-spending miners. Miners are quite superstitious on some things, and they believe that a woman below is a positive sign of some misfortune. On the surface another group of men were watching the miners come up, four at a time, and engaging in the usual bantering conversation. Hi, Shorty! Going to the dance Saturday? Never mind, ground hog, I'll beat your time any day of the week. All joking aside, Shorty, did you hear about those women being below this morning? No. How come Johnson allowed them to go below? He knows what bad luck that is. I don't know: they must have talked him into it. Thanks for telling me. The boys won't be glad to hear that especially with the roof-trimming job to be done. Yeah, I heard. Rolfe said that it had been spitting all afternoon. Well, so long, Shorty: see you later. As Shorty Stevens lugged the small but heavy box with its red-lettered warning into the bucket, he was thinking seriously of what Echert had told him. Then he and his three companions swung over the small opening of the shaft and dropped with sickening speed to the level where they were to begin work. Piece by piece they placed the high explosives into holes drilled at various places in the lead-and-zinc-bearing rock that lined the levels. Some of these were to start new shafts while others were to clear old ones. Then they climbed thirty and forty-foot ladders to the roof to reset supports that were slipping or cracking under the strain of thousands of tons of rock above. That finished, they fitted caps on the explosives and cut their fuses. The fuses were cut just the right length. Men familiar with explosives such as these men were could tell to the tenth of a minute when the dynamite would go off. This done, they lit the fuses, one by one, and hurried back to the main shaft over the tricky footing afforded by the rocky levels. The bucket was sitting where they had left it, on the elevated platform, called the doghouse by the miners, who have a nickname for everything. They stepped into the bucket, and Fisher leaned out and pulled the signal cord three times to denote that men were coming up. They braced themselves for the jerk that would send them on their upward journey of four hundred feet. It didn't come. One looked at the other. Fisher went over to the box containing the wall telephone. Ritter can sure pick swell times for a nap, growled Shorty, but with a nervous tremor in his voice that others didn't miss. Fisher turned around. Fifty-two 1 -i.. -1- L l - - 65 - - -Z' E-.. ts:-2v2p1s2:5fa2.+.:::1:11:i5q2aa'te:,.-as., stirs, .zz . i'l' .-131-.ar2:sems:fg.:ssf.:1f-:ti z:atrt2s.1a-:f:- The power's off. He doesn't know how long it will take to find the trouble. His face was white in the flickering light given off by the carbide in his cap. Other grimy faces turned the same hue. They understood. Meanwhile, directly above these men, a frantic hoister was pulling useless switches between hurried calls to the power house, several miles away. For God's sake, canjt you give me some power? These men are down there with the fuses lit. The men at the power house were sorry but there was nothing they could do. Down in the mine four grimy-faced silent miners passed the time away, each in his own way. Fisher was smoking a cigarette slowly, deeply, as if he wanted to get the full benefit of it. Shorty pulled makings out of his pocket and slowly rolled himself a smoke. Goodman and Loring were sitting with their backs to the irregular rock wall puffing on pipes. Then Loring looked at Fisher. What time is it? Eleven after four. They'll never git power to us in four minutes. They sat in the darkness that was broken only by the occasional red glow of a pipe or cigarette. Seconds ticked away. Two and a half minutes. Two. Each man was thinking of his past life and his family without him to help. Now one and a quarter minutes to live before they would be blasted apart by the dynamite that they themselves had placed. Now forty-five seconds. Eagerly they puffed to get a last bit of enjoyment. Up in the hoisting house, Ritter looked at his watch and gave a hysterical scream. He couldn't let them die: yet what could he do? He ran down the long flight of steps that led to the ground as the first deep rumble vibrated the ground under him. He put his hand to his ears and ran out across the prairie screaming, trying to escape those horrible sounds that kept coming with dreadful monotony. 1 1 1 COMING By GENEVIEVE STEWART There was the rich brown earth Beneath us, and, high above, The wealth that comes in clouds and sky. To either side, the weeping, despairing trees Bent like old women at the graves. Everywhere was death and in that death The life that comes from the brown. bare earth. That earth will be green stemmed, And those old women at the graves will grow into spring-nymphs And all this desolation will be gone. Tomorrow. The winds and cold of today Will all pass and life that is dead Will grow again.

Mr. Wilkens heard them whispering and laughing. just L' as they always did when they came on. The silly bunch of women! There was only one that knew what she was doing. Miss Linger was definitely Mr. Wilkens' favorite. He always boasted about her to his visiting friends, telling how kind and efficient she was. He thought she was the brave kind. Nothing fluttery about her. Calm as anything. Some of his nurses were so timid. They were so afraid to do anything for him. He often wondered if he were getting so old that he scared people. But he always concluded that the younger generation Cwith the exception of Miss Lingerj was just going to the dogs. As Mr. Wilkens was thinking about these things and listening to the faint chatter of the nurses, he felt a gentle tug on his sheets at the bottom of the bed. It didn't particularly alarm him, as patients in hospitals take out-of-the- ordinary things as every-day occurrences. They get so used to seeing a new interne or a table with long medical instruments popping into their rooms, that after a while nothing seems to disturb them. Some of them say they can't sleep when they get back home, because everything is so normal. So Mr. Wilkens, of course, thought very little about the gentle tug at the foot of his bed. He murmured rather sleepily to himself that it was probably some fool interne -Mr. Wilkens seemed to have a particular hate for internes -bless 'em-- prowling around, hunting germ specimens on the floor, or mebbe half-dollars. There were two or three more distinct tugs and then Mr. Wilkens, after some period of no tugs at all, said, Well, 'guess he's found what he wanted, and as he relaxed in bed, he glanced over at the door, half-expecting to see a white-coated, long-legged fit seems most internes have long legsb form, on hands and knees, making his way out the door. Z-z-z-z-z-z-z! tap! tap! A noise. Mr. Wilkens decided it was over in the other corner of the room. That interne must not know exactly where the thing was that he wanted. Fine hospital this was, to let noises, made by rattle-brained internes, wake the patients up. Tap! tapl, Gr-r-r! If he could only get his hands on whatever was making that noise! Well, Mr. Wilkens decided the only thing to do was to call in a nurse. He pushed the signal that lay near his bed. He saw the little light flash on, up over his door, on the outside. Well, that ought to bring some results, especially if Miss Linger answered it. In popped his favorite nurse. Now he'd have some peace, since Miss Linger could fix anything. When he told her about the awful tapping, and had thoroughly related his theory about the daft interne and his lost pair of something, she turned on the over-head lights. Like a flash a little brown beastie slid across the floor, straight for Miss Linger. Heaven help me--a mouse!!!!I she screamed in the most terrorizing yell Mr. Wilkens had ever heard. She jumped up in the air, and then tore out of the room, as though all the fury of a head-nurse were after her, and ran screaming down the hall.

He sighed and once more started to go to sleep. YYY STREET SCENE By FRANCES WADDLE His chair a splintered box. His home-we knew too well. The crowd drew close: Curious youth and sympathetic age.

Worst of all, he has to wash his neck and ears and of all things comb his hair. Mother won't understand that it gets mussed as soon as he goes outdoors. Then at last, his breakfast. But. oh, what a disappointment, oatmeal! and to think mother would feed that to a man. Why. oatmeal is a baby's food. Bob would like to have Wheaties. Jack Armstrong's cereal, but if mother insists, what can a fellah do? LTHOUGH younger brother is small in size, his troubles seem as large 4 A NL - . . , . . . - . . -. '- if After much urging on mother's part, brother starts out for school. Gee, how he would like to linger on the ball diamond instead of going to that place of dread. Miss Brown, his teacher, seems to think that boys are supposed to be as prissy as girls. Dirty hands seem to be her chief topic for nagging. In the first place, what's the use of washing hands? They'll just get dirty again. The sound of the school bell brings brother back to the present world and he realizes he must proceed to his doom. At least the most horrible lesson. arithmetic, is first. It is always a relief to have this over with, for to Bob arithmetic is a huge monster who likes to chase small pupils, who slink under his monstrous jaws. Even at school Bob cannot find contentment, for he seems to be teacher's pet object for torture. Noon comes, much to his delight. for this means one hour of freedom. But this freedom lasts but a short time and again he must go back to the schoolroom for a few more hours of toil. As you know, the Liberty Bell rang freedom for the settlers long ago and so does the school bell ring liberty for Bob. With gay thoughts of skating or riding in his mind, brother fairly flies home. But soon his gay thoughts end, to think he must practice for an hour. Why, that's horrible! Only sissies practice, not real he-men. Yet there is no use trying to get out of it: so he begins to play his instrument. However, the tones are so terrible Cnot by accident eitherj that finally mother permits him to quit. Still, her permission was too long in coming, for now he must eat dinner instead of playing with the fellahs. At dinner, vegetable soup was placed before him. To think that he had to eat such stuff! Why, it's almost as bad as oatmeal. Well, now that the soup was down, he might have a few hours of enjoyment by joining his gang , but Dad put a stop to that thought. Homework! Don't teachers bother one enough in school without giving work enough to spoil a perfectly good evening? But Bob's protest was unheard. Again that monster, arithmetic, chased him until he gave up and stole quietly upstairs to find peace in slumber. Even before resting brother had difficulty in finding the toothpaste, his pajamas, etc. At last he was snug in his warm bed. Yet like a flash of thunder came the thought that he must go through the same trials the next day and practically every other day of the year. Fifty -six , ,H f p. ,dt TL- l he ' T -if Q .

ICN, On the other side of the aisle an expressive masculine shoulder ff 1 x 1 shrugged. She has pretty grey hair, hasn't she? she asked. An eyelid fluttered and this time his head bobbed. I hope I have hair like that when I get that old, she said thoughtfully. A glow seemed to emanate from his whole being and a satirical gleam shone in his eyes as he retorted, I hope I have hair when I get that old. A glance was cast at him from across the aisle that completely squelched him for the rest of the hour. With a dull half-interested look he watched her insolently take out a leather purse that looked like an overnight bag, open it. drag forth several objects, and lay them on a handkerchief. Then she vigorously scrubbed and punched at her face with various colored sticks, puffs, and pencils for the next five minutes, all the while scrunched up in her seat like a rag doll so that she could view herself in a small mirror which was perched on several books and kept sliding down so that she had to keep replacing it constantly. With a zip her pocket-book was opened and she began tossing lip-stick, compact, and powder-puff into it at random from a distance of several feet, never missing a throw. A glance at the clock which said ten-forty, and her hands flew to her hair, bobby pins appeared from nowhere and a comb that had hitherto rested peacefully in her hair began plying back and forth like a rapier in the hands of a fencer. It succeeded only in reminding the boy across the aisle of his front yard which had to be raked that afternoon. Dandruff idly drifted back to the small boy seated behind. who with a smothered sneeze and a look of resignation, quietly shoved his chair backwards a foot. Adept lingers next wrapped small strings of hair into curls and basted them there with the bobby pins. They had come from nowhere and they seemed to disappear to the same place again. As the Hrst bell rang she re-knotted her Ripley scarf, yanked her sweater down in back, jerked her skirt around till the buttons were in front, pulled up both stockings and straightened the seams, tightened her shoe-laces, and wiped a streak off her shoes with a handkerchief. Meanwhile, with a desperate look on his face, the boy across the aisle had taken a pencil from his pocket, torn a page from his note-book, and begun writing furiously. Dear Old Judge. I have just been watching the girl across the aisle perform a retouching job on her face, almost a complete toilet, I might say. It has me wondering seriously why we boys must wait hours on end for a girl to get ready to go to a dance or a show when, with comparatively inadequate material, she can do a very expert job, with a touch and finesse of an artist, in the last ten minutes of an advisory period. The urgent ringing of the second bell halted the composition of a missive which may have meant the emancipation of suffering manhood.

One, two, three, I 'Gate l ' four! You have heard him, haven't you? He is giving the morning exercises. You see, folks, next door we have some very charming neighbors, the Greens. The delight of that entire family is to take morning exercises. Of course, you all know what that means. First we have Mrs. Green in the kitchen fixing breakfast: Herb, the great football hero, is getting dressed: we find Sally, the beauty of the family, before her mirror. Oh yes, we almost forgot little Johnny fthe pride and joyj just getting out of bed. Father is eating his breakfast. The radio is tuned in and we hear the voice of the announcer: Now, friends, in order to build up your bodies and energy, Dr. .Iinx's Oat Flakes have decided to give you this Wonderful program of morning exercises. Stretch your hands above your head, breathe deeply. Relax. Let's try it again. Now--begin! Mother drops the egg in the pan: father puts down his paper: Sally raises her hands, still holding the brush: Herb has one shoe off, the other half-way on: Johnny stops brushing his teeth. Everything is dropped to take these building-up exercises. Relax, says the announcer. The family resumes its activities. Oh, says Mrs. Green, this egg is completely ruined! Dad, why didn't you watch it? There you go, one excuse after another. What! Why don't I attend to my cooking? How dare you? Samuel Green, I'll never speak to you again! Why, dear, I'm sorry, answers Mr. Green. Well, she wails, what good is-l?' Let us continue with the second exercise. Touch your toes without bending your knees. Mrs. Green has completely forgotten her little argument and resumes her beloved exercises. Sally can be heard rushing around, Oh, dear, now I dropped that pin. Where did it go? I simply can't go to school without it. What did the announcer say, mother? Darn, exclaims Herb, now I split my trousers. Mother, oh mother. can you help me? Johnny is brushing his teeth while trying to touch the floor with his hands. Ouch, he yells, as he almost swallows his toothbrush. But of course, anything can be endured just so the exercises are taken. They have just begun these daily exercises. As Sally walks down the steps she has to limp: Herbie goes to school with a sewed-up place in his trousers: father drinks cold coffee: mother eats burnt eggs: Johnny doesn't eat at all. They are satisfied. Exercises are much more important. Sixty-two sarsse raec l In H I E.

So, folks, close your windows, tune in your radio, sing at the top of your Voice: then you will be free from this daily occurrence. AN AIVIUSING INCIDENT By JUNE MCMAHON OMEONE said that the horse gallant animal is the king of all beasts. Others vouch for the lion. myself, am inclined. to favor the latter, C51 . . . audi' as it has been my misfortune to discover some malicious and treacherous traits in the horse. To prove my statement, Ill tell you about an incident that happened at Sylvan Beach about two years ago. It was a gala and festive occasion, that Fourth of July. We started out early in the morning with picnic baskets, balls and bats, swimming suits and, not least by any means, our riding breeches. We had heard that the horses at Sylvan Beach were excellent, spirited, you understand, but not wild. Having ridden about two times before, I thought myself a veteran and was confident that my equestrian ability would far exceed that of the more humble members of my company. With the audacity of youth I also thought to teach my uncle some tricks. Even if he had been in the cavalry during the war, he was too old to ride really well. fConceit, you say? Well, I'd call it self-assurance and, besides, remember what a show-off you were at fourteenj At last the great moment arrived! The horses were brought to us. I wasn't at all reassured on hearing that my horse's name was T. N. T., but after one glance at the beast my fears were calmed, I was once more mistress of the situation. Such a mangy, dispirited creature you have never seen! He looked positively moth-eaten, with such droopy, sad eyes, such a helpless air, he probably couldn't go any faster than a snail. You see I had forgotten the old adage You Can't Tell a Book By Its Cover. With superb courage, born of inexperience, I lightly vaulted into the saddle as I had seen them do at the movies. Once up, there was no backing out. The horse hadn't seemed so tall from the ground, but now the good earth seemed a mile down. With a gay 'AGiddap to T. N. T. I ambled down the road. Then my horse decided he had been nice long enough and with a wild snort darted down the trail like Cavalcade or Twenty Grand. I was terrified! My feet flew out of the stirrups, I lost the reins, and then came the final blow: the horse stopped and reared on his hind legs. To my utter astonishment I slid off his back and landed with a resound- ing thump right on the ground. Mortified? I nearly died. That horse actually stood there and grinned. Perhaps you think that a physical impossibility, but no other word could possibly describe the malicious expression on his face. Well, my hour of triumph had fallen fiat: I had proved myself to be an utter washout. I took the jeers as best I could and left to sit down in a pillowed chair. The moral of my little tale is this: Never trust a horse: that sad, droopy, look is only to deceive you. That kindly glint in his eye is really hypocritical: that animal is just waiting, daring you to think you are his master.

I-Ie turned to my oldest brother, Don. Fiends, wretches! he cried, for Dad was a hot-headed man. Filthy disease carriers! I'm in favor of the movement. All of 'em. You are, hehl' said Don. Down with 'em! said my dad. Exterminate 'em. That's what I say. When I get home, I'll- When he reached home he almost ran up the walk and dashed into the house breathlessly, pulling off his coat and vest as he ran. Ann! he yelled. What is it, dear? asked Mother, looking down the stairs. Don't stand up there and talk while disease and death menace us all, shouted my Dad. Come down, can't you? Can't you see I mean business? Dad was busy rolling up his shirt sleeves and getting ready for the great task. Dad, what in the world is the matter with you? asked Mother, after coming down the stairs to see what all the rumpus was about. Haven't you been reading the papers for the past week on what's going on in this city of ours? I presume you haven't. You're just like the kids: all you do is read the funny papers, said Dad. With that Mother walked away, leaving him muttering to himself. While Dad was talking, a Hy was weaving figure eights around his head. After jumping at the Hy nine times without success he began to get pretty mad. Each time madder than before. Hah! he cried, when he had made the ninth attempt in vain, for by this time the horrible insect was sitting on the front screen door, just as if to say, 'AYou old dope. here I am! If you open the screen a moment, the fly will leave, Bill, said my mother. What's that? cried Dad. Open the screen? Turn that raging peril upon this community? You may do that, Ann, but not me. I have more respect for my neighbors' rights. Dad grabbed the evening paper, rolled it up, and struck the screen with the strength of Hercules. Ann, can't you come here? Haven't you a grain of sense? Can't you see what I'm trying to do-exterminate this Hy? Bang! Clatter! Mother's prized vase fell to the Hoor. But the Hy, still having a great time, was whizzing here and there. Lo and behold, if he didn't light on the Hy paper in the sauce dish. There, now, that's the way I exterminate flies. When I exterminate them, they stay exterminatedf' Dad sank breathlessly into the big chair, where he dozed oH' till dinner. Srxly Hue - -x ' 4-- -Z. . 1 -:' : 1 nm -1 ..l : : . '.-.,gI-31332 - B56 QUE: .- - ALL HANDS ON DECK By EDSEL HATFIELD 1' LL hands on deck. H Y, .WM . . latin! These words shattered dreams of a scenic railway, and we awoke to find our fingers wrapped tightly about the steel bunk frames. All hands on deck! The cry again echoed down the hatch, and tense silence gripped the crew in the forward quarters of the U. S. Sub-chaser 330. What had happened that, all hands had been called at three-thirty instead of five-thirty? Eight men cursed softly as the pitching roll of the ship banged their heads against a stanchion or a bulk-head or as a toenail snagged a sock as the smooth material slithered over feet cold from the damp chilly weather-or from an unknown fear-which? For once no grumbling arose about the fourteen buttons that flank both sides and the front of sailor pants. ln the haste of dressing but four of these were even buttoned. Legs were braced against convenient objects to keep from falling as hands and heads disappeared then reappeared, first through jersey sweaters then through undress blue jumpers. Pea-coats were draped across shoulders, and eight fellows streamed up the ladder, each in turn to be slapped in the face by a wave and practically thrown out of the hatch to the deck by the catapult-like pitching of the chaser. No one laughed as one of the radio operators heaved over the side. We left him to his misery and hurried aft. A sickening wave of exhaust fumes greeted us amidships at the engine-room hatch, and we got another jolt when we reached the fantail. Mac, chief gunner's mate and ship's keeper, said, Radio from the flagship said, 'Stand by and prepare to tow the 64 in. They lost a rudder and their engines broke down.' Through the night we could see the red breakdown light bobbing about like a cork, The 64 was in a bad shape. She was commonly referred to as the house-boat because she was the only chaser with so much super- structure. A galley, bridge, and oflicer's ward-room squatted ungracefully on her top deck. These things which, except the bridge. were ordinarily below decks made her dangerously top-heavy. Had they been working she could have been steered with her engines, port and starboard engines running alter- nately. Orders came roaring from the bridge. Mac passed the end of a line up from the lazerette, and a seaman dragged it forward half the length of the ship. Another grabbed a bight of the rope and carried it forward. This con- tinued till three hundred feet of rope was laid in a running coil. Then everyone grabbed a stanchion and watched the 64 wallowing in the trough of a wave like a fat pig in a hog-wallow. Apprehension was written on every face. Over on the 64 there was another crew waiting anxiously for us to jockey into position-waiting while we futilely ran around them in big circles unable to come closer than several hundred yards. On the Michigan shore the lights of Ludington gleamed brightly. The captain's eyes rested on these lights as he gave orders to the helmsman. The Sixty-six T lj: ' T '- ' - - - 1 n 1 .1 ' ' I . radio officer peered intently out a porthole from the radio shack. The executive officer, the doctor, and three ensigns lined the starboard rail of the bridge, collars turned up against the driving blast of cold mist and gloved hands, with thumbs hooked in pocket corners, idle at their sides. Their only move was an occasional shifting of the feet to maintain balance. Amidships the crew waited, the brims of their white hats turned down and the collars of their pea-coats turned up. A match flared to light a sodden cigarette: a huddled figure took several hasty drags and passed it to another hunched figure: more matches flared. Then the radio man's head appeared at the hatch in the chart house, a message was handed to the captain, and the touseled head disappeared. The captain took the helm and pointed the bow of the ship towards the quiet Ludington breakwater as the four ships fell into line. The helmsman went aft, spoke to Mac, and Mac said, The 64's engines have been temporarily repaired. You can all turn in except the next watch. Half-choked, hysterical laughter hung over the 330 as the men disappeared down the hatch to their quarters. 111 GOD'S LITTLE TEMPLE By GENEVIEVE STEWART Blessed are little children.

The strike-out has come after the home run. In other words, the slump has come to Beaumont after three years of heyday football. This is the contention of many self-appointed grandstand critics. However, we must realize that this year's team at no time played with full strength and power on the field. Never has an aggregation fought on under so many and such varied handicaps. Thirteen members of last year's champions were lost through graduation alone, and many promising players were absent this year through injuries, leaving school, scholastic ineligibility, and other reasons too numerous to mention. These are not hollow excuses: they are cold facts. Neither coach nor players have filled the air with belated moanings. It is up to us, as loyal Beaumont students, to come to the complete realization of the tremendous handicaps with which our team was confronted. It is true that five of the games were lost: but it is also true that the second half of every game saw a Beaumont team battling under the greatest of odds. inspired by a loyalty to school and coach. May this exhibition of gameness always be a shining example for the future squads of Beaumont. Only one man could have possibly encouraged such a team to rise above the apparently overwhelming barriers and play beyond its physical capabilities. Last year he was touted for coaching a winner. This year he proved that he could also lose with the grace of a true Sportsman. We are just as proud of Coach Burns M. Franklin as we are of the teams which he produces.

There has never before been so powerful a team to represent Beaumont as this squad, which took the city and state championships. Robert Blattner, two-year letterman, was deservedly given the first singles berth. George Hendry, a newcomer, and Bernard Manic, a returning letterman, were two closely matched candidates for the second singles position. Hendry held a slight edge over Manic and took over second singles, Manic holding down the third singles position. Erwin Hofman, track star, and Robert Kilker eliminated all other doubles competition and were chosen for the doubles position by Coach Backus. The first three schools on Beaumont's schedule, McKinley, Soldan, and Roosevelt, were conceded to be the schools for Beaumont to beat. The squad swept over McKinley in their inaugural matches at the Jefferson Memorial courts with the loss of only ten games. Blattner and Hendry starred with the loss of only one game apiece. Beaumont next beat Soldan, who eventually iinished second in the league. This match provided the first real test for Hofman and Kilker, who had had no interscholastic experience. They played good tennis, however, and defeated Soldan's doubles pair, 6-2, 6-2. Led by Manic, who lost only one game, the team trimmed Roosevelt High School's assembly. With the three hard schools out of the way, Beaumont's chances for a city championship seemed brighter. Beaumont crushed the three remain- ing schools, Blewett, Central, and Cleveland, giving them a total of only 16 games. Tabulations released by the league manager several days after the tennis season ended, disclosed the fact that Beaumont's team had shattered two league records and tied another. By going through the season without the loss of a set, and by losing only 45 games in all, the squad set two new league records. Furthermore, by winning every match, a league record was tied. The State Tournament was held at Columbia, Missouri. Beaumont's representatives were Bud Blattner in the singles division and George Hendry and Bernard Manic in the doubles division. Hendry and Manic won the right to enter the State Tournament by defeating Hofman and Kilker in a special match. The whole squad made the trip, however, as Hofman and Kilker were taken along as substitutes. Blattner met some of the best high-school players in the state but retained his state singles title with hard-earned, overtime victory over Jimmy Johnson of University City High School, 6-l, 7-9, 6-1. Hendry and Manic likewise captured the doubles title with a much easier triumph over the Clayton High School doubles team. All three of the boys were in top-notch form and gave commendable exhibitions of tennis. To top off all the honors won by the squad in the city and state tourna- ments, the entire squad was placed on the mythical all-star team. Blattner was placed in the first singles position, Hendry in the second singles position, Manic in the third singles position, and Hofman and Kilker in the doubles .. Seventy-three .Je-.1 .-.. .lig Q -J- Q' C berth. In the individual rankings, Beaumont's players were also ranked first, second, and third in the singles division and first in the doubles division. Manic set a new league record by gaining third place in the singles ranking- the lirst time in the history of the league that a third singles player has been ranked above a first singles player of the other schools. The prospect of retaining the City Tennis Championship for the third straight year is very good, as the entire squad will return next year. Coach Henry Backus deserves very much credit for turning out such line teams year after year and justly should receive his full share of their laurels.

Coach Polster is facing the problem of inexperience this season, as only three lettermen are returning for competition, namely Bob Marting, Bill Massa- rand, and Bill Grady. Marting, furthermore, will be available for only the first half of the season. The loss of the following nine lettermen: Schwenk, Freise, Amato, Wachs- ler, Uhlemeyer, Stiegemeyer, Wedler, Schuermann, and Rapplean has literally ripped the squad to shreds . Nevertheless, Coach Polster is well pleased with the large number who responded for tryouts this season. Some 200 boys availed themselves of the opportunity of practicing the fundamentals of the game, and their attitude has been characterized by a keen desire to learn. Some very promising boys of the lower terms who possess height and speed are gradually developing, and with a season's training and experience should be heard from in another year. The most promising candidates include Bud Blattner, Bob Kilker, Erwin Hofman, Bill Christophel, Jake Amant, George Hendry, John Weh- meyer, Gordon Dirhold, Russel Pidgeon, Russel Cauble, John Redeker, Clifford Fleuri, Gene O'Rourke, Ray Krewet, and John Masterson. A stiff non-league schedule is being played in order to prepare the squad for the regular league season. The 1937-'58 schedule is as follows: 1938 BASKETBALL SCHEDULE LEAGUE SCHEDULE January 7 February 4 Cleveland-Blewett Central-Beaumont Central-Soldan Cleveland-McKinley Beaumont-Roosevelt Soldan-Roosevelt January 14 February ll Soldan-Beaumont McKinley-Roosevelt Roosevelt-Central Cleveland-Soldan Blewett-McKinley Blewett-Central January 21 February 18 Roosevelt-Cleveland Soldan-Blewett Blewett-Beaumont Beaumont-McKinley McKinley-Soldan Central-Cleveland February 25 McKinley-Central Roosevelt-Blewett Beaumont-Cleveland Seventy-five 'Y' ' NON-LEAGUE SCHEDULE December 7-Tuesday February 8-Tuesday Central-3:30 P.

We who are leaving hate to go, because we are going to miss the thrill of competition and the warm relationship which existed between the coach and players last year. However. we are indeed gratilied when we realize that Coach Kirk will not be in desperate need for material this spring. Some of the boys who will be out for the 1938 team are Tschudin, Steimel. Fisher, Shetley, Blattner, Dowling, Quante, O'Rourke, Wehmeyer, May, Keller, Hofman. Kilker, Newman, Krueger, and Gray. Jack Roehlk, Al Butcher, Beverly Tschudin, and Don Schmidt are the only actual veterans returning for action. The champions of last year had many peculiarities, the most prominent of which was the nick-name mania. The following lineup is probably the oddest of its kind ever to be printed, but this was an odd team. 2B. A1 Butch Butcher 3B. George Biff Frank LF. Dan Moose Jostedt CF. Harry Lover Hertling lB.

All indications point to another auspicious perform- ance by our swimmers, who have so often represented St. Louis in state meets. Many lower term boys have reported for practice, which promises successful teams in future years. These boys are under the tutelage of Eifert, Jacobsmeyer, and Welker, who were members of last year's team and are returning for active competition. Judging from the time trial records, the most promising of the new crop of swimmers are: Reinholtz, W. Eifert, Landis, Frey, Brettsneider, and Gorther. Bob Welker is coaching Billy Tharp in diving, and both boys will share the honors. The Blue and Gold will be capably represented in the Washington University Relays by Jacobsmeyer, Fields, Eifert, and Classen. These boys will be entered in the 200-yard free-style relay event. Classen is popularly considered the fastest back-stroke man in the state of Missouri. The boys are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Coach Burns Franklin. who will soon terminate his football activities and assume his duties as swim- ming coach. Y 1 Y OUR HERO By DAN JOSTEDT His hours in an English class Were spent in prayers-that he would pass. Math was tough-and so was Iit. ' Geometry he couIdn't git . And when report cards came around. We saw his chin had fallen down: With sagging shoulders, drooping eyes, He then avoided other guys. But by the end of that same day His every qualm was brushed away. The four P's which adorned his card Were grades for which he thanked the Lord! For now he'd play and win the game. Although his brain was slightly lame. Girls insist that he's a wow, While teachers Ioolz and wonder how.

He is hoping that the boys of the lower terms with track ability will turn out this year in even greater numbers than last season. Of the eleven senior lettermen from last year's track team, only one, Aubrey Sonderman, will return. However, from the ranks of last season's junior lettermen, seven will return this year as seniors. They are: Sam Gallo Csprintsj Erwin Hofman Churdlesj Robert Funk fmiddle distancesj Marian Rice fmiddle distancesj Richard Hilger Chigh jump, sprintsj Robert West Cbroad jumpj Arthur Brown Cpole vaultj Jerry Schmidt is the only junior letterman from last year's squad return- ing again in that division. Four of last year's midget lettermen will be juniors this spring: Robert Riegerix, Emory Martin, Ernest Hindle, and Roy Jamison. There are many berths open in all events and in all three divisions on next spring's track and field squad. The loss of such stellar performers as Brachman and Schueneman will be greatly felt. Beaumont, however, has an abundance of talent material, and if all those boys interested in track will report for training those vacant positions can be very capably filled. This year's team probably will not have sufficient strength to bring the 1938 interscholastic title to Beaumont, but it will show other schools that Beaumont will be a factor with which to contend in track and field activities of the future. 1 Y F RESI-IMAN FOOTBALL By DAN JOSTEDT Freshman football, coached by Mr. Oscar Pop Eager has been, and will continue to be, the source of such valuable players as Schwenk, Frank, Heckert, Amato, Paul, Rapplean, and other boys who were cogs in the great football machine which brought honor to Beaumont in 1935 and 1936. It has not only developed boys in the fundamentals of the game, but it has given them high ideals of sportsmanship and taught them the art of winning gracefully. In the years when Beaumont football was in the making, our freshman coach continued, with unfailing enthusiasm, his never-ending task of discovering new material with which to aid in moulding the first team. Seventy-nine 7 . ., No bands played while his team was playing on some obscure field: no letters were awarded: no cups were presented: and finally, the student body was hardly aware that his teams even existed. Only a man of Coach Fager's initiative and fortitude could keep high the morale of his team and coach them to records which are a source of envy to every freshman team in the city. Coach Fager has done his allotted work with no thought of reward, and he is deserving of high praise for the splendid showings his teams have made since this type of development was instituted at Beaumont. It is our desire to convey the sentiments of the entire student body in sincerely thanking Mr. Fager for his wonderful work in the past and wishing him success in all of his future undertakings. This year the large freshman squad was divided into a league of four teams, which played on Thursdays and Fridays. In this way, the boys gained actual experience in competition while they were learning the fundamentals of the game. At the close of the season, the All-Star team of this intra-mural league will play the sophomore teams of Central, University City, and Soldan. Y Y 1 GOLF TEAM By DONALD MENOWN The growing popularity of golf with Beaumont students is shown in the increasing number of boys trying out for the team. The team is at present composed of Jerry Satz, Donald Menown, and Vernon Shetley. Mr. Kemp, having had the team play every Monday after school at Norwood Hills Country Club, is responsible for its good showing in the St. Louis District Tournament, in which Jerry Satz took fourth place. We have played three matches with other St. Louis high schools. The first match on September 20th with McBride, we lost, Donald Menown win- ning his match and Jerry Satz and Vernon Shetley losing theirs. The second match, played October llth with McBride, was tied! Vernon Shetley won, Jerry Satz tied, and Donald Menown lost, We won the third match, played October 26th, with Normandy. all three members of the team Winning. Jerry Satz took fourth place in the St. Louis District Golf Tournament held at the Crystal Lake Golf Course in June with a score of 75, 79. In the State Golf tournament, held at Columbia, Missouri, on October the second, we were represented by Jerry Satz and Donald Menown, Jerry shooting at 80 and 84 and Donald at 80 and 83. The state title was retained by Gene Fehlig of St. Louis High School, last year's winner. Vernon Shetley will be back next year and we shall have several promising prospects, including Edward Dolan and Frank Foss. Eighty ITEN QQ llq Iirqhlq-lu.

Each year the number of subscriptions has increased, each year the paper has won new laurels until at the present time the Digest indeed occupies an enviable place among high-school papers. Much of the success of our publication is due to the efforts of our hard- working business staff. Gilbert Wild is our very efficient business manager, and he is ably assisted by Paul Ahrens and Donald Schnuck. These boys take charge of all details concerning the sale and distribution of the Digest. The editorial stall' supervised by the editor, Ruth Rothschild, and the assistant editor, Wilbur Noltensmeyer, writes all articles appearing in the Digest. Each member of the staff is always on the lookout for a story but in addition to these big stories everyone has definite assignments.

FULLER By MRS. WM. C. LOCHMOELLER, retiring president of the Mothers' Club F:-3 HERE are some men whose life work, as we survey it, makes the impres- ,lf A sion of solid strength and noble service. These men are so strong mf'-ll d f 1 h 11' k f h f ' th ld Your an use uit at we t in o t em as permanent orces in , e wor l as I we know it and imagine that they will remain unshaken in the midst of inevitable change. Such a man was Mr. Wilbur N. Fuller. It seems unbelievable that he should no longer be here to guide and counsel us. We, the mothers of Beaumont, are justly proud of our Mothers' Club. It is one of the largest high-school mothers' clubs in the city. I wonder if many of you have ever stopped to consider why we have steadily in the last eleven years gone onward and upward and never one step backward. I know, but I wonder if you know that most of the credit is due Mr. Fuller, the best friend we ever had, who conscientiously guided us. If I were asked to mention the outstanding feature of his character I should unhesitatingly reply, It was fidelity. In things great or small he kept faith. More than once he said to an incoming president of the Mothers' Club, I am here to advise you: call upon me at any time. I'll do all I can to help you, but you are the president. Do as you think best. You can depend upon me for advice and guidance at all times. It was my good fortune to have been the last president to serve under Mr. Ful1er's guiding hand, but I know that I speak for every other president as well when I say that we were always welcome at any time to come to him with any of our problems. We knew him to be a brave man who dared follow his own judgment, and one who had the courage to assume responsibility for his every act. I shall never forget with how much genuine sincerity and tireless effort he helped make our annual entertainments a success, not only sitting at his desk planning the minutest details, but helping behind the scenes, where yet he was also needed: Mr. Fuller was deeply devoted to the Mothers' Club, and nothing was too much, nothing too hard, nothing too insignilicant. He was always anxious to help us on to greater heights. He fully realized that the club's purpose was to further the interest between the school and the home. He attended every meeting and always waited patiently until he was called upon. He had the mothers' interest at heart and wanted to bring to them any message that might in any way help solve the daily problems that come up in the lives of the student. I cannot believe that even now his light is extinguished. I have a letter written to me by Mr. Fuller at the time of my own father's death in which he wrote in part: Life comes and life goes, and those of us who remain must carry on the things that we have learned to love and appreciate in those who have departed. My own personal feelings are that there is no death, but that we do live on in the lives of those that we have come in contact with. Mothers, the good that Mr. Fuller, whom we are honoring today, has accomplished in Beaumont, can never die. Let us go forth resolved that his work has not been in vain, that the high principles which actuated him shall henceforth have an uplifting influence upon us so that the good which he did shall endure forever.

Have you ever said, I'd like to join the club, but I'm afraid they'd laugh at me when I try to act. Don't let this bad actor complex get the best of you. The members of the Dramatis Personae are all amateurs who hope to improve their dramatic ability through the activities of the club. So come to Room 307 some Wednesday at 2:30 to see what we are doing. After the usual business is finished. the program for the day begins. The actors take the stage and the audience settles down to an intent watchfulness as the program begins. Then the imaginary curtain falls and the spell is broken. The critics now take the floor and give their opinions of the presentation. For how can actors improve without constructive criticism? An active program committee arranges such features as plays, sketches, readings, talks on subjects relative to dramatics, or a combination of these. And of course, each member is expected to contribute his share to these weekly programs. As the path of a beginner is never very smooth, so it is with the Dramatis Personae. We have had our difficulties: it is our interest in what we do rather than our achievements that holds us together. However with active members under the sponsorship of Mr. Enzinger, we hope to find ourselves.

The increase in the member- ship of the Shakespeare Club during the past year seems to bear out this idea quite well. To help satisfy this interest in the great poet, the seniors in the club have been presenting at each meeting details of the life of Shakespeare. It is hoped that the members, through their association with the life of Shakespeare, can bring other students of Beaumont to a greater knowledge of the most famous writer of our language. The following sonnet by Matthew Arnold is but one of countless tributes to William Shakespeare: - Others abide our question. Thou art free. We ask and ask-Thou smilest and art still. Out-topping knowledge. For the loftiest hill. Who to the stars uncrowns his majesty, Planting his steadfast footsteps in the sea. Making the heaven of heavens his dwelling place. Spares but the cloudy border of his base To the foiled searching of mortality: And thou, who didst the stars and sunbeams know, Self-schooled, self-scanned, self-honored, self-secure. Didst tread on earth unguessed at-Better so! All pains the immortal spirit must endure, All weakness which impairs. all griefs which bow Find their sole speech in that victorious brow. The activities of the Shakespeare Club have been many and varied this term. There was an interesting visit to Eugene Field's home. There was a lively debate on the subject of whether or not Macbeth was responsible for his downfall. At one of the meetings the students were treated to the moving pictures of Mr. Webb's trip to Alaska. Miss Jordan entertained the club with her adventures in the Orient. Mr. Wallach's talk, which the club anticipates every fall, did not fail to meet our expectations. Although the requirements for membership in the Shakespeare Club are many. the reward of being a member outweighs any effort made in becoming eligible.

There are many who, seeing the charm which chess has for its votaries, would like to become acquainted with the game. But they shrink from the supposed great labor of learning how to play it. Chess, they think. must be a very hard game to learn! They are much mistaken, and you must not make their mistake. Chess is really a very easy game to learn if you are confident and go with moderate care through simple rules. The board used in chess is also used for checkers. The principal thing to keep in mind about the board is that it must always be so placed that the corner square at your right-hand side in the Hrst row is a White square. There are 32 pieces, or men, in all, 16 white and 16 black. At a glance one can see the likeness between most of them in such that when one knows the meaning of the six of them he knows the meaning of the whole 32. These six are the King, the Queen, the Bishop, the Knight, the Rook or Castle, and the Pawn. The Pawn's movement- CI5 It moves straight ahead, one square at a time, except on its first move, when it can go two squares: is queened if it reaches the 8th rank or row. captures diagonally and only diagonally. C45 It cannot move backwards or sideways nor capture backwards or sideways. C55 It has capturing powers: its reach is just to the forward square next it on the diagonal. The Bishop's move is along the diagonal. He can go forwards or back- wards on his diagonals, and he can capture any enemy piece that he encounters on his way. The Bishop has no power whatever outside his diagonal. The Rook's move is not diagonal but straight ahead and also straight sideways, and it can move backwards as well as forwards. It can capture any enemy piece that it meets on its way. The Queen is the most powerful of all the pieces. She can move along the diagonal, like the Bishop, and straight forwards and sideways, like the Rook--backwards and forwards, too, like both these pieces. The King's power of movement is very limited. He can move only one square at a time. He can go into any of the squares-front, back, or side- adjacent to the square on which he stands. If there is an enemy piece on one of the adjacent squares he can capture it. There is a special move- castling-which the King can make once in the course of a game. The Knight's move is a little puzzling to beginners: but it need not be so. Just remember: fl5 that he can leap over pieces. fHe is the only piece that can do so5 : C25 that if he is on a White square his move will be into a Black square and vice versa. Some misguided persons suffer from the delusion that chess is a solemn game, far too diflicult for anyone but actuaries, astronomers, and the like, who pore over the board in their grey-bearded dotage while in between the moves spiders spin webs upon the pieces. Chess can certainly become a harmful CContinued on page 99.5 C25 It Q35 It Ninety -seven m'lu vu PHYSIOGRAPHY CLUB ... 11----f----'------'--L-f-.qt-4,41--wwqtgjgvv ' ' if-1vw'Q-2-21221515'ffs.s:.-:zzliisfqmzei -.-,1 ez.-.f,.s, .:.2 .

Do you know the story of Creve Coeur Lake? These and many other questions are being answered this term for members of the Physiography Club. This year so many students applied for membership that it was necessary to divide the club into two sections-one meeting on Tuesday, the other on Friday. The purpose of the club is to take field trips, thus supplementing the regular classroom study. This term the club has been concerned mainly with the rock structure and fossil content of the region in which we live. We have studied the geologic history of the rocks and fossils and the conditions under which they were deposited. To study these formations we have gone on trips to such places as Meramec Quarry, Cliff's Cave, along Highway 66 from Pacific to Highway 77, and many other places. We have also studied various stages of stream development, using as examples gullies, streams in the different parks, and the Mississippi River. In addition we have gone on a field trip to St. Louis University to study the seismograph, a machine for recording earth- quakes, and we have gone to Washington University to examine their rock and fossil collections. All students who have taken or are taking physiography are invited to join the club.

Under the capable leadership of Mr. Stamm, it has been a definite organization that has given music for the football games, auditorium sessions, and other civic programs which have needed music. Our band here at Beaumont has been considered one of the best well-balanced bands in the city of St. Louis. At present, it consists of about fifty-five well- trained and capable musicians. In its blue-and-gold uniforms, it has carried the school spirit everywhere that it has played as a unit. Any boy playing a wind instrument who would like to play in the band, please see Mr. Stamm about it. Y 1 1 GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION By VIRGINIA MARTING The Girls' Athletic Association is the focus of all athletic clubs for girls in Beaumont. To become a member of the other clubs you must first join this association. The Hnest girls in Beaumont are members and we 'have a very capable leader-Miss Baxmeyer. In each sport the girls are rated according to their ability and attendance and thus receive their points. The points from all clubs are added together by the G. A. A., and awards are made each term. For 400 points a girl receives a numeral: for 800 points, a letter: for 1200, a pin: for 1800, a guard for the pin: for 2600, a trophy. It is a very special honor to receive a trophy: few girls receive one. In the spring of each year the club gives a party, and what a party it is! Each girl is permitted to bring either her mother or a friend. Refreshments are served and an interesting program is given. All you girls who are not members this term, join next term and take this chance to show your ability and leadership.

We have a good time in making these discoveries, but our purpose comes first. In our field trips we get practice in observation and interpretation of social facts. This helps us to have an objective attitude toward all sociological material. Because what we see is so closely related to our classwork, we find our trips very interesting. Among our best trips have been those to Bellefontaine Farms, Union Biscuit Company, United Drug Company and the Chevrolet plant. At each of these places we have learned many helpful things. We have seen the remark- able speed of modern industry and have discussed ways to neutralize its effect upon the people who work at machines. It is not at all improbable that some of our members may some day make some contribution that will aid in the adjustment between the machine and society. We all wish to extend our thanks to Miss Hudler, who arranged all our trips and accompanied us on them.

DRILL TEAM By DoRoTi-IY SCHMIDT LeftI Left! Come on, girls! Watch those lines! Hold that pivot! These are the words that ring in our ears on Monday afternoons at 2:30, for then the Drill Team meets to practice for exhibitions at Beaumont football games. This peppy group of girls, led by the very capable Miss Ross, form different figures, such as eights, wheels, and spirals, on the Held during the intermission between halves. Although the Drill Team is still in its infancy, the success of the first year's work has inspired the girls to put on larger and better performances. The drills become more intricate each time, and by hard work these girls expect to keep their former standards and raise them still higher. This year there were ninety-six girls drilling, four color bearers, and a new member who acted as drum major and thrilled the audience with her baton twirling. Our striking costumes of white, with blue, and gold identification bands and new Beaumont pennants made us feel just like a professional drill-team. The only requirements are that one be a Pepperette and attend both drill practice and the games regularly. Remember, too, that G. A. A. credits are awarded to each girl for her participation in the events.

Do you know its purpose? Do you know what the members benefit by it? Can you answer all of these questions? No? Then here are the answers. The Boys' Novelty Orchestra is a dance orchestra composed of boys in different musical organizations of Beaumont. It is composed of fourteen regular members. who play all the engagements. There are some reserves just in case there is a quick change to be made. This group of boys furnish dance music for Beaumont. Most of its engagements are in school, but once in a while it will play for some community organization. There is no credit given for work in this orchestra as in the school band and the large concert orchestra. The boys earn service points instead. Most of them like to play and are encouraged by receiving points towards membership in the Service Club. The high point members are at present: N. Boesewetter. l69: C. Ginsberg, 166: A. Franz, 114: B. Shuman, ll4. All of these, with the exception of B. Shuman, are now seniors and expect to graduate in January. The orchestra tries to look professional and all wear white jackets trimmed with blue and gold. MEMBERS C. Ginsberg B. Seeck Violins A. Davis P. Humphries R. Rogers Brass G. Zimbelman l. Hardy A.

It is an organization in which students are taught the principles of parliamentary procedure and learn important facts about vital questions. The purpose of the club is to promote an interest in debating. This aim is accomplished by the participation of the members in lively debates on questions of our times. Thus the students gain some knowledge of world alfairs, national issues, and civic interests. They also begin to learn something about public speaking. Fifteen points are given for each debate in which a member participates and fifteen points for serving as a club officer. Any member receiving one hundred points is awarded a debating club emblem, a highly coveted honor. Washington University Debating Teams have frequently visited us and given a demonstration of a college debate. These exhibitions were always much appreciated. Our members attend the international debates that are held at VVashington University. These occasions are high marks in our debate work. At the close of one term's work we sometimes produce a mock trial. Come join us, interested students of terms 4 and upward. The Witenagemot extends to you a most cordial invitation.

Every five weeks each girl in the club sings some selection by herself. Attention is given to breathing, placing of tone. and posture. Constructive criticism is offered by both the sponsor and the members of the organization. The Glee Club girls feel that this voice-testing not only improves their individual voices, but also makes for greater poise and self-confidence. The problems of radio broadcasting have been of special interest to the club this term. Two of the girls participated in the Greater St. Louis Secondary Schools of the Air program over Station KWK, for which the script was prepared by Miss McLaughlin. The entire club will sing in a later broadcast. Another important function this term was the Christmas program at the library. The girls also sang at the December meeting of the Beaumont Mothers' Club. During the past term a new social plan has been adopted. Instead of their usual big annual party at Norwood Hills Country Club, the girls entered into a number of varied social activities. Some of these were: a Wiener-roast at O'Fallon Park, a Christmas dance here at school on December 17. a club movie matinee, and a skating party of the entire club. To climax all this, on December 18, when the club sang at the library, the girls entertained their mothers at a luncheon given at one of the downtown restaurants.

CLUB By ELIZARETH KING The girls who pull the strings -that's what Mr. Huntington calls us, but there is much more to manipulating marionettes than merely pulling strings. The most important thing about marionette work is the making of the marionettes: the next is interpretation of the play. This covers control of the voice, characterization of each part, and pulling strings or manipulating the marionettes. Scenery, stage production and lighting are given great care and consideration. The club meets every Monday at 2:30 in Room 402, where we have our stage and stage properties. We have a collection of about 25 marionettes, one hand puppet from New York, and one silhouette doll from China. In the past season we have given a program at La Barc School and enjoyed a wiener roast afterward. The club presented a program at the German Protes- tant Orphans Home, and also a program at the Food Craft Shop. It is an excellent club for students interested in the arts. drama, handicraft. costume designing, music and dancing.

From stamps one may obtain an elementary knowledge of art, geography, and history. Many stamps are rare and therefore quite valuable. Many valuable stamps are destroyed yearly through lack of knowledge as to their real value. Stamp collecting, or philatelics, is a very interesting and absorbing hobby. This club was organized to make it possible for members to gain a better knowledge of stamps. Our sponsor has helped to make it a success by answer- ing any questions that may come up about stamps. Any boy or girl who is interested collecting is eligible to join. The club meets every Thursday afternoon in Room 204.

So many girls answered the call this year that Miss Ross was obliged to reduce the membership to fifth-, sixth-, seventh-, and eighth-term girls. The enrollment now provides the club with four equally divided teams, each having a captain whose job it is to arrange the line-up, perfect team-work, and put life into the girls. At the end of the season Miss Ross selects an all-star team, which consists of the most talented players and the best sports, and an alternate team, which includes those who are the substitutes. 5, These particular girls receive extra credit for the G.

They take exercises on rings, poles, stall-bars and ladders, and practice high jumping. Preceding the apparatus work. the girls take marching and setting-up exercises to warm up and prepare for the work on the apparatus. It is a lively and enthusiastic club because only those who are interested in it join. The girls come because they really desire to learn, and their training helps them in other work. For the last few terms the membership has been too large. This term membership was closed at 75.

His work consisted in giving service to others. He gave this service to the faculty and to the student body of Beaumont, as well as to those who were above him in rank. He carried out his work: we must do likewise. Mr. Fuller held a place of high esteem in the eyes of the members of the Service Club, for in him they saw an example of a man who gave excellent service and a man upon whom the responsibility of leadership was placed. His footsteps upon the road to success should be followed. The Service Club offers this road in that it gives the opportunity to serve others. This club is composed of students acquiring and Gs in their studies. The students are given certain duties to perform, such as clerking in attendance rooms and in the general oHice, coaching students who have difficulties in their studies, performing duties in the halls during various periods of the day, assisting at the senior and new senior parties, and carrying out many other functions that can be entrusted to and carried out efficiently by the members of the club. We know that the memory of Mr. Fuller's work and service will be an inspiration to the present and future members of the Service Club. 1 1 Y PEPPERETTES By JULIA BENINCASA Girls! Do you want to feel that you are responsible for Beaumont's football heroes carrying the ball sixty yards for a touchdown? Do you want to see our boys come out on top in basketball and baseball? If you do, then join the Pepperettes and cheer them on to victory. If you have ever attended a football game you could not have possibly missed the lively crowd of girls in the cheering section. You probably have often seen them in their blue and gold outfits, and you certainly must be proud of the demonstrations they perform on the field. The Drill Team is the new section of the club and they perform on the field at every game. All that is necessary to join is that you have an athletic ticket and plenty of pep : so come on and join in the fun.

Bang! What noise! Whew! Just as I thought, twenty members of the Library Club gathering in the library for a meeting. Do you like book reports? Hmm-I thought not. Did you ever hear of giving book reports for fun? Yes, the Library Club does just that. Three minutes is the limit, and it is oh, so hard to tell all you want to say! We are not interested in proving we've read the book but we strive to criticize in our small way the plot, characters, and, purpose of the book. After each report there is an open discussion which gives others a chance to suggest ideas. The Library Club meets the first, second, and third Thursday of each month. The first Thursday the club goes on trips, visiting places of interest in the city, such as the Public Library, Western Union, and St. Louis Dairy. The second Thursday an outing of some sort is arranged. We usually go by auto, cook our food over an open fire, and have a grand time. The third Thursday, a general meeting in the library is 'devoted to book reports. Each member is responsible for a discussion of a particular type of book--biography, travel, humor. or whatever has been selected for that month. A letter is awarded to anyone who works in the library and is an active member of the club for a year.

These questions have been asked so frequently that the girls on the team have decided that this organization needs some publicity. Suppose we begin with a little past history. . The swimming team for Beaumont girls was organized in 1931. The purpose of the organization is to acknowledge the honor due to Beaumont girls who have passed specific tests of swimming ability and to provide a coveted goal for girls interested in swimming.

If you are, we'd be proud to have you join our merry ranks: and if you're not, we'd like to have you anyhow. Even though you are just a shaky beginner, after a few lessons from some of our more advanced members you'll soon get the knack of remaining perpendicular as you glide gaily around the Winter Garden rink every Friday afternoon. The dues for the term are only twenty-five cents, and this entitles you to a membership card with which you are admitted to the Garden at a reduced rate. It also enables you to share in the fun at our annual spring outing. Each season the club emblem is awarded to each girl who is able to skate a mile in five minutes. In addition to this, six G. A. A. points are given each Friday you skate, and extra credit is given at the end of the term for perfect attendance. Now, don't all you G. A.

Grant Us to Do With Zeal , the number which we sang at the cemetery, was repeated in the Maud for the faculty and student body. Then there was the Library Christmas Program. the Secondary School Program on the radio Station KWK, and graduation. After the June '37 graduation there were several vacancies, but these were readily filled by new members. Our club now numbers sixty boys. Inyaspite of our large membership, we are always interested in new members, as many of our present members will graduate in January '38. I ' In addition to our veteran soloists, Frank Grindler, tenor, and Kenneth Koeller, baritone, a new discovery has been made by our sponsor, Mr. Stanarm. He is Billy Parmley, a tenor Soloist who has already filled two solo engagements since entering the club.

The news of its re-opening was greeted with such a rush for membership that some had to be turned away because of the limited number of typewriters. This club, which meets on Wednesdays, is for senior typists who wish to increase their speed. We are planning to have a party at the end of the term, at which a prize will be given to the member who has the highest speed per minute. It looks like an exciting race, since we have quite a few speedsters in the club.

We usually sing four-part harmony but are capable of subdividing into eight parts. The object of our club is to improve the individual voices and to blend individual voices in a large choral group. Our object is also to be of service, as a group, in the musical activities of the Beaumont community. We express the joy of singing in our class meetings and we form pleasurable companionships through our social activities. Our sponsor makes our choral work as interesting as possible by stressing the atmosphere of each song to us. This helps us to appreciate it and makes us imagine ourselves as characters in the song. The types of songs we sing are: l. Accompanied songs such as Carmena , in which the chorus picture themselves as gay, romantic Spaniards. 2. Unaccompanied or Ha capella songs such as Glora Patri by Palestrina. which we sing in the spirit of a sixteenth-century church choir. The club has several prospective engagements for December. Under the direction of our sponsor and club officers we gave a successful Wiener roast October 28, and we are now looking forward to a party which will be given later in the term.

It meets every alternate Friday at 2:30 in Room 122. At this meeting members of the club give talks on birds, rocks, insects. and many other objects of nature. The following Friday the club goes on a trip. We have been to such places as Czradwohl Biological Laboratories, the reptile house at the Zoo, and many other interesting places. We usually have some one to show us through these places and explain the work being carried on. We do not have to go outside our school to see and learn about nature: we have a museum of our own in Room 400. From year to year students have added to our collection of birds, frogs, snakes, and rocks: we also have a library which enables us to classify our specimens. Our club is not all work: we have our semi-annual picnic or party. VVe went to Chain of Rozks last spring and Creve Coeur Lake this fall. One Hundred Thirty-five , .

Ping pong tournaments have been organized throughout the world. and the sport has been recognized for what it is-a fast, entertaining game of skill. Entirely in keeping with this lively interest is our own club here at Beaumont. Every Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 the Ping Pong Club holds a meeting in the lunchroom. Here the girls learn how to play this exciting game and how to baflle their opponents with various trick serves. More than this, they learn good sportsmanship. Besides getting a lot of fun out of the club, the girls receive credits for attendance, winning games, and holding oflice. At the end of each term the two members having the highest number of credits receive emblems, the highest honor the club can bestow. The club extends a cordial invitation to all girls who are interested in ping pong to join. - President Dorothy Gaebler Vice-President Rena Lumini Secretary Adele Eickmeier Treasurer Audrey Niemann Digest and CADUCEUS Correspondent Ruth Rothschild S Marie Lombardo ergeants-at-Arms Artis Sassman S Miss McGrew Ponsors Miss Wagener WALKING CLUB By AUDREY SCHUERMANN How about it, girls?

It gives the student a chance to continue studying the topics in which he or she is most interested. The club's programs consist of talks made by members relating to some phase of science and trips to various industrial plants and laboratories. During the past term, trips have been made to the St. Louis Star-Times, Gradwohl Biological Laboratories, St. Louis Dairy, and Shell Refinery. When a trip is taken on Saturday morning, the day is made complete by a hike or a picnic in the afternoon. Letters are awarded on a point basis to those members who show the most interest in the club by giving talks, arranging trips, and bringing in new members. Any student with a year of science is welcome to join the Science Club at any time. It meets on Fridays in Room 124 at 2:35 o'clock.

This club, one of the largest in the school, meets on Thursdays at 2:30 in Room 16, and new boys are welcome to come to the meetings. The club this year is composed of about fifty boys as compared with thirty last year. The dues, which are only twenty-tive cents, entitle the boys to a reduced price at the Winter Garden on Fridays. After the season is partly over, the whole club enjoys a free skate. This free skate is the same as a party is to the rest of the clubs of the school and is enjoyed by its various members to a great extent. Going to the Winter Garden is good for the shy, self-conscious fellow because it helps him meet boys from other schools as well as ours. It is also a good place to see one's favorite girl and enjoy skating with her.

We chose for our name Das Deutsche Kranzchen, which means the little German circle. The purpose of the club is to improve our German and at the same time plan social gatherings at which we can all have fun. We areadoing the former because all our meetings are held in German, and we have presented little German stories which some of our members have dramatized and taken part in. They are funny as well as educational. As for the latter purpose of the club, all the members that attended will say that they had loads of fun at our roller-skating parties at the Lorelei, and there are many more plans just as enjoyable in the ofling, Anyone taking fourth-, fifth- or sixth-term German is eligible for mem- bership.

When Beaumont High School was completed in 1926, Doctor Lehrman came here and started a gymnasium club which has proved to be a great success. It was organized in order to train the body and harden the muscles, enrich life and health, and rebuild frail bodies. In spite of our large membership this term, we welcome new members to attend our meetings every Monday after school. Today this club is one of the most prominent clubs in Beaumont.

THE LUNCH CHECK CAGE By DAN JOSTEDT The lunch cage is the only place At which those over-brilliant 8's And freshies green can meet on ground. Where no smart jibes are dropped around. The senior is the only one Who keeps a straight face through a pun: Whz'le new jays roar and tear their hair Until at last-there is none there. Just watch a freshie clutch her dime, Then grab her checks-with thought for time But watch a senior-calm, serene, Her greatest wish is to be seen. I guess l'm prejudiced to boys, Because they make so little noise- Tall and manly, meek and quiet: But with those girls-it's just a riot. And now that I have had my say, The tide will turn the other way. The girls will all arise in rage, And then they'Il storm my lunch-check cage. 1 ADVICE By GENEVIEVE STEWART Don't be last Or fast.

It will be a bright future for the youth of today if they are prepared to make it so. You are the men of the future: you must PREPARE to make the most of the future-OF YOUR FUTURE. PREPARE FOR IT: Prepare! Prepare for what? For what the future holds. Are we beginning to realize that there are things of such worth that they cannot be rated in terms of dollars and cents: that the word Success does not begin with a dollar sign, but that it depends upon the usefulness and effectiveness of our lives? And through all the ages the educated man has been the effective man. EDUCATION AND TRAINING: Yes, we need technically trained men, but the recent past has taught us that we cannot hope to carry on even in a mechan- ized civilization Without the thinker, the man who is capable of preventing the maladjustments which the merely technically trained specialist is so likely to create. The lawyer, the doctor, the teacher, the dentist, the banker, the financier, the professional man in any field you choose is so much the better lawyer, doctor, teacher, banker and so on, if in addition to his professional training, he is an educated man. EDUCATION AND COURAGE: Surely the future will be brighter if in the face of our present-day depression-intellectual rather than economic-and in reply to the false prophets of the dissolution of our Western culture, we can raise up a group of intellectual and courageous young men and women eager to re-assert and strive for the right objectives of civilization and culture and human effort. But for this we must have many more liberally educated men. EDUCATION AND EFFECTIVENESS: The liberally educated man is the effective man, who, as Newman says in his Idea of a University, is at home in any society,-has a common ground with every class:-knows when to speak and when to be silent:-can ask a question pertinently, and gain a lesson seasonably. Is there not a lack today of men who have that education which teaches them to see things as they are, to go right to the point, to dis- entangle a skein of thought, to detect what is sophistical, and to discard what is irre1evant ? In fine, Newman's idea of a University education must come to be more fully appreciated. We need more men whose education prepares them to fill any post with credit and to master any subject with facility. THE THINKER: It is strange that we have lost sight, to a great extent, of so seemingly elementary a principle. It is strange we have thought that almost any type of specialized technical training could form the background for a successful and effective man's life. The future, if it is to be bright, must be dominated more and more by educated men, by thinkers equipped in literature and the classics and philosophy, in the social sciences, history and sociology, polictical science and economics, and all that goes to make up the liberal culture of an advanced civilization. I ST. LOUIS UNIVERSITY: This is the type of man the future just ahead of us is demanding. This is the type of educational preparation which is given in the COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES AT ST. LOUIS UNIVERSITY. si 9 '. nl I . N X J. '1 -.xv - g 'R , f t s ' ........ in 5- -1-fri?
