STEEN ERECTED ISS5 DESTROYED BY FIRE, SEPTEMBER 21, 1918 NOVV IN PROCESS OF ERECTION THE RAZZLE O'TlDE.NTl1 I I Vl .lim E 'un Mi? :Bilge Historq of Beloit High School ?:N , 'l' 4 o'eloek, May 5th, 1879, the Board of Education of the city of L39 Sli? Beloit, Kansas, held its first meeting at the school house, then a 73 little brick building located on the site of the present high school gi i 1 building. . V 5 ,uf NV. H. Burke, 1Vm. Grew, A. Patton, ANT. Rodgers, NV. H. Mitchell, Dr. Eakcns, members of the Board of Edueationfelected Prof. D. H. Thomas principal and superintendent of the school at a salary ofone hundred dollars a month not to exceed a period of over nine months. Olive A. Veach was elected as his assistant at a salary of not over thirty-tive dollars a month. On September 15, 1879, school opened with an enrollment of seventy students, thirty boys and forty girls. The school year was divided i11to three terms of three months each. A tuition fee of 334 a term was charged each student and the following subjects were offered, viz: Thalhemer's History, General, Thalhemer's History -of England, Thal- ll9I1101',S History, Ancient, Thalhemer's History, Med. 85 Mod., Thalhemer's History, East Monarchiesg Tl1i1lll0lIlE31'iS History, Rome, Tl1fllll8II101',S History, Greece, Morton's Elements of Natural Philosophy: Steele's Physiology, Ste-ele's Physics, Guyot's Physical Geography, Ray's Revised Higher Arithe- meticg Harvey 's Revised Grammar. The first graduating exercises were held in the Opera House, Saturday evening, June 1, 1883, with Emma Long and Mabel Barnes as graduates. Mr. S. Hutchinson, Superintendent. ' I11 1884 bonds amounting 'to 320,000 were Voted, and the money derived from them was used in erecting what was for so many years known as .the Central Building and what is now the major part of the present High School buildng. The building was completed and ready for occupancy at the beginning of the fall term in 1885. There were ten large accommodation rooms and two large halls. The citizens of Beloit on February 24, 1914, voted 825,000 bonds for the erection of a large addition to the Beloit High School building, which had been too small for the accommodation of the students for a number of years The new addition was completed and ready for school at the beginning of the second semester, 1915. I THE RA-ZZLE O' TIDENTIJ The new structure, together with the old, was destroyed by fire, Septem- ber 21, 1918. April 1, 1919, :l5125,000 in bonds was voted for the erection of a new building. This building is now under process of erection in the Sixth Congressional District in Kansas, and fha-ei will be none better inthe State, a.lthoug.rh there are some larger. The new building will be inueh larger than the old one with splendid library, gymnasium, laboratory and auditorium facilities and with the newest a.nd most up-to-date equipment that can be had on the market. The new building' will have a eapaeity of practieally 500, with a seating capacity i11 the auditorium of 800. ' NVhile the loss of the old building has made it necessary for us to occupy other buildings and thus interrupt the work of the last two years to some extent, yet we are glad to know that the boys and girls who attend the High School in subsequent years will have the best facilities that can be provided for their physi-sal and intellectual welfare. New times demand new condi- tions and the new building will take care of Beloit and Mitchell County better than the old one. METHODIST CHURCH Our Step Alma Matersn W 'i?2l??5 f HEN on that fatal day, September 21, of 1918, we saw our beloved lg, .2 High School consumed by fire, and turned away feeling homeless 5 and forelorn, only to be taken under the protecting wing of the LN X 5 Methodist Chureh, we felt like wandering orphans who had at .Q last found a haven of rest. It, together with the Parish House and Christian Seienee Church, were rapidly fitted out with sehool parapher- nalia and soon we were bark in the harness, trying to forget our sorrow and to enjoy the pleasures of the remainder of the term of '19. Baek we eame to these friends in the September of '19, feeling secure and happy, only to be 'Q-ousted from our main home, the Methodist Church, on January 27, 1920, by the same formidable and familiar enemy, another fire. Again we were shelterless and forced to seek new friends, which we soon found in the l'nited Brethren, Christian and Presbyterian churches. The unhealthy eondition of the Cliristian Church basement required another ehangre and proved to us that there was still another waiting the opportunity to befriend us, in the form of the Baptist Church. VVe only stayed a, short time i11 the Presbyterian ehureh because the distance was too far to go. While these ehangres eaused us some inconvenience, nevertheless, we profited by them for they gave us more reereation and out-door fun. It also showed that we eould overcome the work of the Fates and, too, we realized and appreciated more fully what we had lost. Thinking of the misfortunes we have encountered and the obstacles we have overcome, aided by -others, we realized how kind and generous are the friends who gave us the use of thir ehurehes, without a moment 's hesitation. And we trust that our action and our care of these buildings that we have occupied will, in a measure, show our benefaetors our deep gratitude and appreeia.tion -of what they have so readily given us. These buildings rank next. to B. H. S. in our hearts, and will be classed by us as our Step Alma-Matersi' forever. ...Y J N! UNITED BRETHREN CHURCH EPISCOPAL CHURCH AND PARISH HOUSE.

MEMGRIAM Floyd Briney Nov. 17, 1899 Jun. 5, 1911 Lyle Stack June 6, 1901 Aug. 7, 1916 Senior Class Historq Vlfould you hear :L wondrous legend Of ai tribe oi? mighty warriors, .llruves und Maidens hound together By the years of strife and sunshine? Should you nsk whence eunie these stories Of the years they strove together, l should answer, l. should tell you Of the winds that swept the pruiries, Wliispering' words of all their struggles, All their striving after learning, All their joys and alll their troubles As they journeyed up the putliwuy 'l'-o the lzuid that we eaxll ku-owledge. ln :i peut-el711l plenszuit valley By ai shining, winding river, Lily al. village, queen of cities, 'Flint along this river flourished.

Nineteen-fifteen saw them gathered At the wigwzuu culled the High School. Be XVorthy of Trust, they chose for motto, And for flower, the Pink C2ll'llil,lil0ll. Often times this clan did gntlier ' To make merry in their wigwzung And one deity they stagred 'u class play VVhieh was known as Hunker's Corners. Eighth graicle lessons and eight teachers Kept them strugrgliiig' l' or dipl-oinus, Cherish well these sheep skins preeious! For eighth grades no more receive them. North wind, south wind, hlew them sorrow, Floyd Briney, Lyle Stark, sailing westward To the land of the hereafter. ' As Freshmen, now they :ill did gather From our village, from our prairies, Found their dignity demanding Chiefs to carry on their business. lVi1lia.1us, Frziueis, Smith and Severance then were eliosen As the big chiefs of their gratlierings. Math was conquered with a struggle, Latin, alsoycaused them trouble. Affairs of heart were not neglected, Lynn and Vernon fought so boldly That the lllaidens tied in terrorg Young Braves ealled their tackle tactics lVo1-thy of the cause they fought for. lVisdom came with Sophomore hon-ors, Freshman frivols left behind them. Only once they all did gather In their Wigwam by the campfire To enjoy the feast and frolic. XVar and famine, plague and tire For many moons were now their sponsors. War from them took all their pleasures, Hoover got most of their sugar. Then the flu stopped Junior gatherings And the School Boards awful edict That no more the clan or teachers Could all gather at the movies. The G-od of Fire east his dark shadow 0'er the tribe to try their metal, Took their Wigwam, left them homeless: With a spirit never daunted Fared they forth to borrow eamp-fires. As Seniors now they chose a Motto That would help them thru life 's struggles, Hold Fast was the one selected By the sturdy Braves and Maidens. Music, Life, a sale and eireus Kept them busy thrn the winter ln their bark ''Step-AlmasMa.ter. Ere the winter months departed, The saered lodge that they had borr-owed NVas taken by the God of Fire. So from early mornftill evening Wandered they a.bout the village ln a frenzied quest for knowledge. Neal and Schlegel, Engle, Clawson Sponsored this, their Senior warpath. You have heard this tribal story From the dawning of its history: Fourteen wigwams furnished shelter, Fifty teachers gave instruction Thru the twelve years of their sehooling. Well these young Braves filled their places, Strong were they in Athletics And in scholarship successful. As their High School days are ending They go forth more tribes to conquer With the strength these years have lent them. -G. K., C. B Tae RAzz1.i-3 O'TlDENTlJ 'I ll -.,kmm.J,.

Their eonversation drifted baek to old sellool days f 9,9 at B. ll. S., and before they parted they knew the present for- !! ii' tunes of their old classmates and teachers. Lest others should not be so fortunate in knowing about the Class and the Teachers of '20, we will relate the conversation. A. E. Here at last. Louise. I'm so glad to see you. Does not Beloit look good to you after ten years in Chicago? L. U. lt surely does. 1.111 so glad to be here. And how is the private secretary of the Beloit. Law Corporation getting along? A. E. t'l still like it fine. Ilow do you like your work? L. t'. Teaching Histoi y has its ups and downs. I can thoroughly sy1n- pathize with Miss Engle. By the way, is she still Miss Engle? A. E. Still Miss Engle and still teaching History. She is in charge of the Ilistory Department' at Emporia. That makes me llllllli of our old presi- dent, Lynn XVilliams. llliss Engle was so fond of him. L. HOI1! haven't. you heard? Lynn is lawyer for one of the largest corporations in lll1lL'il.Q'0 and his wife, Graee QSummersJ is the belle of society there. This brings up all of our classmates. Ilow shall we ever know about all of them? AJ E. Oh, I have an idea. Well use the Ouija Board. lt is the most truthful thing of today. L. U. Good! That is an idea. XVho will we ask of first? A. IC. Let it be Helen Lyster. I bare not heard of her since 1920 and I just know she has become something wonderful for she was eertainly gifted with oratorieal powers. Ouija. Helen's in politics. bone dry, you bet, A howling sueeess as a Sufragettef' L. C. A howling success! lVell. I'm not at all surprised.

She is teaching el-oeution at XVashburn and she has been unani- mously elected as their cheer leader. A. E. That reminds me of Hazel Larreau. Those girls had similar voices and e-ome to think of it they have similar jobs. Hazel is a campaign speaker for the WV. C. T. U. L. C. Could you beat that? But that is just a. few of our number. lVhere is Viola Jones? A. E. XVhy, she is married to Louis Poolerf' L. C. Married to 'Louie'! And what does he do? A. E. He's manager of the new Hippodrome Theatre just opened in Beloit and is doing tine. Now who are you thinking of? L. C. Just Vola Parrish. Ouija, what is Vola doing? Ouija. She was then so bright and sweet, and ever merry: And now she's Mr. Cunningham's secretary. A. E. I thought Vola would aim higher than that. 'I Tl-lERAZZL'E.O'TlDENTlJ fjsfkrlrqffugf' I L.

At all events a sf ay io. or asiing has been done. Earliest records show people clothed i ,Z in flesh inouniing the stage and bearing their motives to the . DN A populace. Drainaries are approved as method of entertainnient 1 9 and instruction. ' The conventional High School Play has generally bG6l1 devoted 2111110311 exclusively, to 91l'i.81't3.il1Ill8l1t, The day is at hand for something a little solider than lieretofore. This year of 1920 the Senior Class presented on two successive evenings a play entitled, A Message From Mars. The other- il0IJ1l, as revealed by the Messenger from Mars was designed to show the essential selfishness of lllllllilll nature. It is hard for the Messenger to understand the course of thingrs upon the planet that is called Earth. He undertakes the task of converting a reputedly honest man of Earth to the ethics of Mars. He strives in dead earnestg for he cannot return to Mars 1111til this has been aecolnplislied. The subject matter differs from the usual play i11 that it is more original and somewhat novel. The plot alfords enough hurnorous situations to make for sustained interest. At the same time it has moral value, ill that it keeps at the front lessons that are needed in days of unrest and transition. The preparation and presentatioii of the play was a responsible work, but all those who took part have a right to feel that the standard has been raised a few notches. T. Marion Crawford of Salina, Kansas, directed the presenta- tion of the play. CAST livnn Yifilliains. . . Clifton Francis. . . Mabel Green .....

Tue RAzzLi3o r1DAENTu Il A lcl G' I , Lecture Course 03755759 HE Senior Class, under whose auspices the Lecture Course is held, it f E decided that this year should stand out for its interesting lecture RQ course, if for no other reason. WVc believe that we are justified Bite in saying that this has been true. The numbers were obtained ' from the Kansas Extension Bureau. The course was composed of six numbers. The first, which was held October 3, was given by t.he Karl Schurer Con- cert Company. At this time the audience was given a rare treat in musical numbers. Miss Erma Lewis, a very talented soloist, rendered several selec- tions. The second number was held October 120. This number was entitled The Fighting Yanksf' A quartette of young men who had aided in defeat- ing Germany, and who are now touring the ll. S., composed the company. This number, as well as the iirst, was much appreciated by all music lovers of the school and city. The third selection was different than is included in most lecture course programs. It consisted of a play entitled, t'Tlic Passing of the Third Floor Back, which was given by the Little Play House Company. The play was Well given and proved a great attraction for all ticket holders. In this play the great moral. That happiness is best secured in doing goor for others, was brought ont. Several specialties, as readings by Florence Forbes and solos by Carl Sittler and Virginia Stewart, were well given between acts. Miss Jessie Ray 'l'a.vl.or appeared before us in impersonations and read- ings for our fourth number, o11 January 6. Miss Taylor is the only woman on the lecture platform who impersonates the roll of man. Because ot' the difficulties of this role it is impossible for ns to fully appreciate the real artistic ability of Miss Taylor, but, nevertheless, we enjoyed her impersonations of the old southern negro, Mrs. 'Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch, the average business man at home and Grandpa and Grandma. The fifth nnmbr, which was to have been held March 3, was postponed. until April 26 because of the illness of the lecturer, Frank G-. Smith. The sixth and last number, with the exception of the postponed number, was held March 16. This was a lecture by John Kendrick Bangs, editor, author, and traveler, on Salubrities I Have Met. He made a very neat distinction between a salubrity a.11d a celebrity, in that a salubrity is one who possesses a fine quality of courtesy, graeiousness, and humanity. Mr. Bangs chose Richard Harding Davis, Rudyard Kipling, Conan Doyle, Mark Twain and the American boys who participated in the late war, as representatives of salubrities, and discussed them very tiuently. All were more than pleased with this lecture and we wish that more of this type might be included in all lecture course programs. tl THERA'Z.ZLEO'TlDEN'TlJ HE last number of the B. H. S. Lecture Course was l1eld at the IQ , :E Grand Theater, April 20. This was a postponed number from N March 5. A large crowd gathered to hear D1'. Frank G. Smith A39 speak upon the subject After the XVar, XVhat'! Although this was his first appearance here we hope to have him speak here again. Dr. Smith is a very talented speaker and as he has a very great amound of natural wit, it is a great pleasure to hear him speak. Dr. Smith brought out the fact that we entered this war to make the world safe for demoeraey and as the reconstruction period is always a greater hard- ship upon a country than the eonfiiet itself the great question we should ask ourselves now is, are we continuing 'fo make the world safe? The speaker left the impression with us that his view of the best way to carry on reconstruc- tion is to do so along a religious line and all have a spirit of union along! religious lines. The question After the NVar, XVhat'? was ably discussed from all points, some of whieh were national, industrial and religious. This ends one of the most successful Lecture Courses ever put on by the B. H. S. When we eonsider the difficulties in securing a place to hold the course this year we believe it has been a great success. First the numbers were held in the Methodist Church until it burned and since then they have been held in the Grand Theatre. We, the class of '20, feel proud in that we have conducted such an interesting, educational and all around successful course. C. L. F.

We were as green in the eys -of the Juniors and Seniors as an Arkansas traveler is in New York City. We ha.d our first class meeting and elected our officers, who were: President, Earl Robertsg Vice president, Albert Marcy, Secretary-Treasurer, Bernice human. XVe had two class parties, one a masquerade Hal1owe'en party and another party in March. Our Sophomore year was one of many hardships Ellld trials. We had gone to school about a month when our high school building was destroyed by fire and we were compelled to labor under adverse conditions in the M. E. Church, and other buildings. W'e were also greatly disturbed by the Flu.'l Never- the less, our class was organized, with Clifton Francis as president, Richard Beil, rice president, and Villa Noah, secretary-treasurer. During this year our class decreased somewhat., numbering but sixty-six. Although we endured many hardships, our sch-ool year we enjoyed to a great v 4, , lt fi : N if , :D extent. In our Junior year we again assembled at the M. E. Church, which was to be our home for another year, with an enrollment. of sixty. XVe organized and elected as our otficers: President, Ralph Noahg Vice President, Villa Noahg Secretary-Treasurer, Beryl XVray. e NVe had a kid party in Noremberg all the members donned garbs such as they wore several years ago. The twenty-sixth of January we met with another calamity, in the burning of the M. E. Church. YVe were again callel upon to work under unfavorable conditions, which we did with alaerity. This time we assembled at the U. B. Churcli. March 19th, will always be held as a memorable day by the Junior Class, for on this day we put on the stage Billy's Aunt Jane. This met with great applause, which proves that the Juni-or Class of '20 are capable of making a success of anything they undertake. Now as the year is drawing to a close the members of our class may be found working diligently to finish their task of this year, and getting ready to assume the responsible role of Seniors. V.

The play was a good ki ' one, well given, and the audience was very much pleased with it. l The proceeds from the sale of the tickets amounted to three hundred forty-eight dollars and fifty cents. Billy's Aunt Jane is a three act play, interspersed with a lively sprinkling of comedy and some very good musical and comedy specialties. The play was given entirely by the members of the Junior Class with the assistance of the facility members. Miss Glasier, our English instructor, eoaclied the play, and the excellent manner in which it was given speaks very well for Miss Glasier and also for the members of the cast. Elmer Mehl, who played the part of the colored comedian, seemed to be the star performer, as tar as the audience was concerned. He played the part exceptionally well and was a whole show by himself.

The students played well together and thc music was very good. At the close of act one, there was an Indian specialty by several of the girls in the class. This was coached by Miss Jacobson, one of the High School Instructors. The girls and Miss Jac-obs-on were dressed in Indian attire and made a very pretty appearance while sitting around their campfire and singing their Indian songs, Miss Jacobson had a solo part in the act. The girls in this act were: Helen Pagett, Delia. Henderson, Gladys McEndeifer, Alma Lange, Beryl Wray, Myrtle Noah, Edith Franzmathes, Ethel Thurston, Agnes Green, Mildred Koch. lrene Pittaway.

At the close of act two there was a court scene specialty, which was coached by Mrs. George Cunningham. Philip Foreade was the judge, Bill Stover the Jew and Dare Roquette the policeman. The manner of carrying on this court and extracting the fines from the victims was very amusing. Among the criminals brought before the court was the eoon, Roland Agardg also the dude, Charles Fobesg the b-ootlegger, Joe Niehus: and the meat market proprietor, who was retailing dogs without a license, Paul Stevenson. ln the last act the characters gave a program as a part of the act. ln this program, Miss Bernice human aeted as chairman.

Sophomore l-hstorq he gill? the morning of September 1, 1918, we gathered together at the eip Beloit High School to take our turn at the wheel, as Freshmen. N, The class enrolled was one hundred and twenty-two, one of th'- ' 1 largest enr-olhnents B. H. S. had ever known. XVe were a very L , ips energetic class and intending to make our class a success. As each has his trials out first one was the lnirning of our High School building, which had just begun to mean so much to us. We appreciated our building, but not so much until we were left without any place to go to school. The churches offered the use of their buildings and i11 a few days we were reor- ganized and back at work again, resolving to stick to B. H. S. I lVe so-on organized our class, electing Max Knarr as President, Clifford XVhite, Vice President, NVinifred Knapp Secretary, and Marie Loop Treasurer, with the able sponsorship of Mrs. lielia CG-lennj Xlfalters, Mrs. Bessie fliakerl Shurtz and Mr. Glen lVeaver we were piloted through our Freshmen year. Among the social events of the year was a party 011 the evening of May 1, 1919, and later a picnic at Solomon Rapids. In the fall of 1919 we returned as Sophomores, leaving our greenness to the coming F1'0SlllI1C'I1. After our summer 's vacation we found we had lost some of our members, due to the inconveniences under which we were compelled to work. Our class now numberd eighty. XVe held our party. Friday evening, November 19, 1919, in the basement of the Methodist Church, in the form of a backward party. January 26, 1920, at about 3 olelock, fire was noticed in the ceiling, main assembly of the M. E. Church, which was our main building. The Church was badly burned and damaged by water, forcing us to again hunt new quarters. Now, we are looking forward to being Juniors, who next year will enter the new B. H.

Tl1is year, on aecount of the burning of the l 0 B. H. S. ,we had to go to the Methodist and other Churches. 'We X N Q had a hard time to find our classes for the first week or more, but v ffl after that we settled down to the grind of the sch-ool II101l0t0lli:.'i At the beginning of the year we had an enrollment of 130. Since that time a number have left us on account -of sickness and leaving Beloit, giving us nor: an enrollment of 108. Although we are only Freshmen, Mort 1Vhite and Gordon McMillan helped to carry oft' the honors of the football team, and Bess Jennings is holding her own with the Sojuhomores, Juniors, and Seniors in basket ball, while Morris Miller is a star player on the boy's team. Representation from our class was not lacking in the musical field, either, as Hazel Mehl, playing the violin, and Gordon McMillan the eornet, are prominent members of the B. H. S. orchestra. lVe also to-ok ac-tive part in the ehorus and boys' and girls' Glee Clubs. The chief social activities in which we participated was a party in the form of a mock-wedding, held during the first semester. Being so young we were not hard to please and everyone had a fine time. K A During the second semester the the debates held in the English classes gave us excellent training for future Congressmen and Suffragettes. There were also good preparations for the declamatory contest, which is to be held sometime in the near future. in which we are confident we can hold our ow11.

O' TlDENTl.1 ' 6' ' ' .s V-I slit: Societ ft T would not be expected that after four years of sifting the Senior - Class would be as verbose and elfusive as when they were Fresh- ? QQ 111911. Much learning has made them wise and brought a measure f , B of sobriety. Balance and poise are theirs. Yet they have their 'haf periods of relaxation. Consistent with their dignity, as Caesar would say, their social doings are a plain, unvarnislied taleqto be related in a few words. On the evening of January 9, 1920, the class met i11 the lower regions of the Methodist Church for a. party. Nothing unusual was said. Nothing u11u- snal was done. Everybody l1ad tl1e conventional good time. Everybody ate Everybody went home directly -or indirectly. Friday night, March 12th, the class had another party, this time upstairs in the City Hall. Inasmuch as it was so near that well known March 17, it was a good old St. Patricks Day party. Who says tha.t St. Patrick lived in vain? Costumes were made to fit the occasion. After games, stunts and stories all found a common meetiiig ground, ate what was set before them by the committee. and then went to Lee-Clark Drug: Companyis dispensary and were served with green mint julep. So mote it be. ilififitfikiliik Following fast on the heels of the Senior Class and heir-apparent to all their prerogatives is the Junior Class. As the spooky lHHllOXV979ll time rolled around the class held a kid,' party in the basement -of the M. E. Church, The sponsors and members of the class were decked i11 clothes that doubtless fit several years ago. The kids represented every walk i11 life from those who walk upon the streets to million dollar urehins. The evening was spent i11 playing juvenile games and quarreling .over all-day-suckers and such like. Kids like to play and eat. Eating with others has a rare eharm that does not wear away. Eating is a curious habit that seems to be well fixed upon the race beeause it is begun so early in life. They all wc11t home. Friday evening, March 19, after the Junior play, the east, sponsors, other members of the Junior Class, and their friends betook themselves to the Polly- anna Tea Room, where a luncheon had been prepared. Ralph Noah acted as toastmasterq the sponsors and several members of the east came back i11 rejoinder. The members of the faculty, who had helped to coach the caste, were presented with handsome bouquets. After the luncheon, all were invited upstairs for a social hour together. THE RAZZLE. O'T1DENT1,1 I I I I will Societ The first seeoiid-semester function was 011 April 9, when Miss Alma Lang entertained the class at her home. The class colors tpink and whitej turnislied t11e scheme for dee-oratingx the house, and also for decorating tl1e persons of the juiiiors. After a few games all 1V61lt to the Park, where the beiiiors were Silltgllllg the Janiboree-Carnival, and after viewing the wonders 1-here 1'GlU1'l1t'll to lllll langre home, where they did the eating' act with great zest tudelicious 1'l'lil'0!ll111liPlllSNil. This being Alma's birthday the guests departed, wishiiig- her niany happy P01-11l'l1S of the day, and voting her a royal entertailier. y ' ' 'Y'- F.iday evening, NOVf'l!1lJS1' El, 19151, the Sophoinore Class and Faculty held a backward party in the old rendezvous, the basement of the M. E. Cl11ll'L'l1. We are so used to nieetiiig in dungeons and SL1llf01'l'2111Ci1ll eaverns that there is nothing novel 111 the plaec of ineeting. NVe would just as leave go backward as .o.wa d. At about 7 :30 p. 111., the class began to arrive at the back door, wbeie they were met by a committee w11o obliged them to walk down stairs lJilCli1V2l,l'll. When all had assembled, little booklets con- taining the prograiii for the evening, written backward, were given out to be exchanged with a llt'lg'llll-01' who, after reading the backward advice, were to write some of their OXVII and 1'Cllll'1l it.. The 0118 receiving the advice was supposed tot act upon it. After a few ganies and several tricks t.l1e eats were served, all passfd to the art gallery where a lllllllblll' of famous paintings were very effee ively illustrated. A prize was awarded to Miss Glasier for having the art gallery e-orrecily stated, and the broadest grin among her competitors to 111111111015 seve11. C'l'11is last is hocus-pocus langliage, understood only by t11e initiatedl. A prize was also given to Harold Bartleson for 11avi11g the least 1ll'IIIllM'1' of aiiswers to the art gallery contest oorrect. Each 0110 then said hello and reiurned to his or her own domicile. Nfillfifvlititik Old maids 11111111 their a.r111s around their male relatives' neeks and wept in low wails, as does the donkey when alone, all because the l1a1'sl1 voice of the preacher bound their fellow Cl3.11SIl13ll, Bud Vtfyatt, in the awful bonds of matrimony to the extreniely pretty bride, Elizabeth Ewing. This mock wedding took place November 5111, 8:30 p. m., at the ciFI'CSlll6,, party in the M. E. Church basement. Miss Vada Hummel, accompanied by our Paderewski, Ruth James, sang the wedding march, after which came the bridal procession to the platform where the life war was to be started. - - 1- - I THE RAZZLE O' TIDENTIJ I I I I Socie The bride and groom were very well matched teoiupare them with Mutt and Jed and you'll have theinj. The groom wore a black dress suit, the trousers resembling the kind Charlie Chaplin wears, and the eoat was evidently made for a three hundred pouncler. The bride wore a white laee dress with a long white veil, looking like a regular Brinkley beauty. The ceremony was pronounced by Johnny Butler, lIllp0l'S0112ltlllg a clergyman, who put the usual questions as to whether there were any objec- tions to the wedding. Paul Biddingrer, the leader of a jazz band, read the list of objections, after which the preaeher pronounced it unconstitutional. Mary Collins, one of the small ones of the elass, was..f1ower girlg UVic Anderson earried the ring, which was about the size of a 'Raekard tire. The eouple then left the platform amidst a shower of presents. The guests were treated to All-day suekersfy I Eaeh of the families now gave some sort of entertainment. The most prominent was the jazz band, led by Paul Biddinger, and his mouth organ jazzer, John J. Spillbeane, in the person of Harold NVreneh. I After this performance the erowd was treated to refreslnnents, served by waiters. Then the wdding eake was ent and each was given his share. All then departed for their respective homes until the next. Rikitiklllifilk HE Jamboree-Carnival put on at the club house at Chautauqua W qi park April 9, by the Senior elassof the High School turned out financially sueeessful far beyond ever the most sanguine L hopes of the sponsors of the event. Approximately S5275 was taken in and at least 500 persons viewed the attractions oifered. This amount of money is an addition to the Senior treasury that will aid the menibers very materially in meeting the large expenses that are neeessarily incurred at graduation. A short time before things opened up at the park a parade was put on in the main part of the city. Louise Cavanaugh and Christine Burkhart, for- tune-tellersg and Irene Conn, Carmen Coursey and Marjorie Shaffer, earnival queens, rode in Clarence Morrell's truek. This display of beauty drew decided attention. Preeeding the truek marched Harold Davis, a grentlenian of the old south, Ervin NVallaee, a suffragette, and Hale Johnson, Louis THE RAZZLE O' TIDENTIJ ' ' T J' Pooler and Lynn XVilliams, clowns. These indulged in yells advertising the Jamboree-Carniva1, the yells being parodies on the regular school calls. The doors of the club house were thrown open to the public at S o'clock. W. W. Clausen, one of the class sponsors, presided at the door and saw that each entrant discussed the silver question with him. The sight that met the eye upon entering the hall was very pretty. The building was decorated with red, white, and blue hunting and with the Senior colors, green and white. A number of free attractions ran throughout the evening. The tirst was an organization of blackface talent known as the Louisiana Six. This was an orchestra composed of Robert Severance, violing Max Knarr, saxophone, Finley Neal, tambourineg Mort White, Jr., drumsg John lVyatt, guitarg and Mrs. Lila Roper, piano. The music they made was very enjoyable. Ervin Wallace as Jazzerina Jipp lectured upon woma.n's suffrage. The gist of his remarks was to the effect that he is for wine, woman, and song. Lynn NVill- iains amused the crowd with a very creditable jig and Hale Johnson sang several ragtime solos. In addition to these free attractions there were a number of pay booths that featured Specialties. Honora Cooke had charge of a confectionery stand that proved very popular. Clifton Francis enticed the people is money from their pockets with a fortune wheel that offered various prizes as the reward of good luck. John Henke induced innumerable persons to try their skill at ringing hooks with fruit jar rings, and skillful throwers had a chance for prizes, too. The fortune teller's booths were presided over by the Misses Christine Burkhart and Louise Cavanaugh. We understand that the crossing of their palms with Silver brought some very wierd results. Perhaps 'one of the most successful enterprises was the doll rack which was in charge of the carnival queens. In one ten minute period S14 passed over their counter. Their prizes were cash. It is said that one gentleman learned the secret of beating their game, but they were too smooth to let him get by with it very long. George NV. Cunningham, one of the High School teachers, played the part ot' a magician and pulled off some very amazing stunts. There is a rum-our today to the effect that the pupils of the Schools will ask the boad to establish a chair of magic so that he will be focer o explain his mysterious procedues. A side-show contained many interesting features. Harold Davis acted as barker and kept the crowd pissing thru in good style. Hazel Larreau had charge of a mutative mirror, Katherine Brown exhibited a Pet Climbing Monkey, a 'Wingless Irish Bat, and a High Jumper. The monkey was of tin, the bat a brick, and the jumper a denim jacket hung at an elevated altitude. Mildred Doyle shocked many with the Electric Bear and Lynn XVilliams acted as keeper of Kickapoo VVaddlepot, king of the Dum Dums, captured in the wilds of Africa, who had two tusks that required 49 yeas each for their growth, and who had such strength that chains would scarce hold him in cap- tivity. Shorty Gilbert played this star part. A Kangaroo court gathered in many victims. Edna Creitz was judge and Helen Mears and May Simpson acted as policemen. Jesse Yocum was clerk of the court.-B. H. S.

The guests were ushered into the dining room, which was beautifully decorated with plants, ferns and the Senior col- orS-green and white. The Banquet was a four-course affair with the following menu: Fruit Cocktail Turkey Dinner Strawberries and Cream lee Cream, Cake and Mints Music was furnished by an orchestra which was hidden behind a bank of ferns and palms. A special program of readings and music was given, which was enjoyed bv all. Richard Beil was toastmaster for the occa.sion.

After having Ieasted at a wonderful banquet they departed for their homes at a late h-our wishing their hosts anr hostesses the best of success as they would soon take up the duties of being Seniors. ' GTZFQ HE Seniors gave the annual Senior-Juni-or reception Friday if E night, April 30, at the lVlasonie Hall. The hall was beautifully decorated in the Junior colors, pink and white, together with a X D fe clever arrangement of palms and potted plants. ,X Y ' 7 gfvl Phe guests began assembling at 8 o clock. They were met at the door by Earl Broadbent and Blanche McElroy, who directed them to the dressing rooms. Upon entering the reception room t.hey were received by the class officers: Lynn hVllll3,l1lS, president, Adella Eresch, vice-president, Louise Cavanaugh, secretary, and Grace Summers, treasurer. The first part of the evening was spent in conversation,' and in drink- ing punch, served by the Freshmen girls. This was followed by the grand march and a program consisting of an address of ,welcome by Lynn Xvilliams, response by Ralph Noah, duet by Carmen Coursey and lrene Conn, reading by Louise Cavanaugh, Cornet solo by Harold Davis, class characteristics, class yells, class song and refreshments. As Mr. Lo-op is leaving our High School. after having been connected with the Beloit schools for sixteen years, of which eleven years have been spent in the High School, he was called upon to make a short talk, which was enjoyed by all. The guests departed for home at a late hour, feeling that they had spent an enjoyable evening. CHAPEL EXERCISES Friday, May 14, was the last chapel day of the school year and the Seniors appeared in chapel for the last time. A special program was arranged, con- sisting of devotional exercises, readings. songs and music. CLASSDAY The Class Day affair is always an event that the Seniors look forward to with pride and enjoyment. This year, Class Day will be held Mondav, May 17, at the park. A good program will be given under the skillful direc- tion of Harold Davis, leader of the occasion, with the rest of the class assisting him in making it an enjoyable event for all. A literary program will be given in the morning, after which a picnic dinner will be enjoyed bv all. After dinner a baseball game will be the closing feature of the day. l r-f'lE'JLfl 'if'-EI --f-Q iY -, rpg 7,7 f-P7 r-'+'q THERAzz H LEo'TwENTu U O il J. XV. HENRY Athlotic Ctliliill, B. H. S.

In the past four years in whieh this present graduating class has been in B. H. S., the foot. ball team has suffered but three defeats-one last year and two this ycarg but owing to the extreme difficulties and hardships we have had to train under and the nnieh stronger schedule we played this fall, we feel that this team has come up to or surpassed those of the last few years. This sucess, which we have achieved, is due to a few sources. First., the advanced teachings and strict training of a in-ost honorable and highly respected, wide awake, good inoral eoaeh. Second, the complete satisfaction and close eo-operation of good foot ball material. 'We sincerely believe and hope that this team, by the record made last fall is a credit to the sell-ool.

Q Lynn Williams CBunJ, the .captain and pilot of the team this year, has played four years for the Orange and Black, the last three years playing quarter- back. As Captain, 'tBu11 set a high standard for endurance and prowess. ln handling the team he used judg- ment and foresight much above the average and made a pivot on which the team revolved with confident effi- eieney. We can rest assured of his sueeess in larger fields. J. H. UVeigl1t 135. Height 5', 7M3 J I William Stover fBillJ, the captain el'-et for 1920-1921. hails from Bar- nard, Kansas.

'rastafvzzne o'T1DeN'ru ll Basket Bell BALL for the past four years for both girls and boys has F been somewhat intermittent. The season of 1916-'17 the Beloit girls sutfered only one defeat, which was ad-ministered by the fl J ' Mankato girls, whom they had formerly defeated, The p1'o1ni- ' nent feature of the 1917-'18 season was a basket ball tournament, held during the North Central Kansas State Teahers' Association meeting at Beloit. The Beloit girls won the big loving cup that was offered to the win- ning team. The boys basket ball team during the winter of '16-'17, lost the second game of the season on our home court to the Mankato boys, but defeated them on the second dash 011 Mankato 's floor, their standard above their opponents. During the season of '17-'18 the boys basket ball team had a clear unde- feated record in their favor for the matched games. M f At the end of the season the boys' team attended a big tournament of North- Central Kansas, which was held at Concordia. The Beloit boys had all but won the beautiful silver loving cup when they lost the game to an opponent. This was the best boys' basket ball team Beloit had ever had. ' During these years which we employed in -our never to be forgotten High School building which, if we could enter today, would seem to be a kiug's country home palace to us .Many inter-class games were played, which kept up magnificent school interest and an enormous amount of class rivalry. , Last year, losing our school residence and also a long and extended erup- tion of school activities caused by the lniiuen1a basket ball was suspended. This year the basket ball siprit was kept alive by the untiring efforts of Coach Henry. ' There have been several class games, which have causedbinueh interest. Owing to the disagreeable and uuaccommodating place which we have for play- ing and practicing basket ball, we have been able to match only one game. Our boys going to Simpson and coming home with the small end of the score. The girls have an excellent team, but -our officials could not match a game with a foreign town because our facilities were limited and poor. The members of the girls' team are: Mary Morrell, jumping center, and Mildred Doyle, forward, playing four years with the first team: Mable Green, guard, playing three years on the first team: Agnes Green, guard, and Bess Jennings, running center, playing one year. , V The boys' team are mostly new men: Earl Broadbent, guard, played three years: Dewey Hs-alan, guard, one year- Bill Stover, guard.one year here and other years at his home town: Otto Gansel and Maurice Miller, forwards, playing one year and Ralph Treaster, center, playing one year. NVQ! lo-ok for an extraordinary record from this team next year. 'A 'ri-1sRAzzLEo'Tu9ENTu p I O I-l Q7 S QQQHI How we long for the good old spring days and the return of 1 the baseball season. 'lhe weather man is not always our friend. l,l and this spring he promised us a few snow storms and rainy days, when we should have been out on the diamond at work. With this unpleasant and disagreeable condition existing it looked for a while as if our baseball team would not materialize. Taking up our duties as a baseball team at such a late date we did -not have a picture -of the team taken and for that reason you will not find the c-ountenances of the famous nine in Razzle 'O '20. This has been the first year that we have had baseball for some time. lVe have found it hard to organize a team to do eieetive work. Some fine scores were made because Bill Stover was able to .steal the bases, backed: up by such good batters as Mort lVhite, Harold Bartles-on. Clifton Francis and Duane Cooke. Shorty Gilbert and Jack Kincaid were right there to keep the opponent from seeing the home base. Mort is our twirler who has kept up his pitching record throughout the season. Otto Gansel, the short- stop, is one of the fastest men for his place, wih Bun Williams at first and Ray Gaston at second, make a good combined pair. We were fortunate in having Cooke, Healan and Bartleson, Smith and Francis acting as fielders. They were always found where the ball was. Earl Roberts, Elmer Mehl, and Bones Miller are fast materializing as good players for future games. This combination of fellows has brought forth some -of the best play- ing that Beloit High Seh-ool has ever had. WV. S.

KY 2.1 DEBATE TEA 'rue Razzte o' TIDENTU ll -VI Debate - HE story of t.l1e Clay Center-Beloit'Debate is a plain tale with few sg frills. The recent plan of regional debate began two years ago when Concordia and Beloit High Schools .entered the lists. Tl1e outcome of this contest was in favor of Beloit. Last year nothing was done. y This present auspicious year the schools of Concordia,- Clay Center and Beloit planned a triangular debate. At the t'eleventh'honr'f Concordia was forced by the illness of niembers of i.s debating staif to fall out of the contest. Thus the tourney became dual instead of triportite. K At a preliminary tryout on March 9, before e1ui11ent local judges, the following were chosen to represent the school: Clifton Francis, Ralph Noah, Paul Stevenson, Earl Shurtz, Gladys llleldndetfer, Beryl Wray, Alternates: Irene Francis, Myrtle Noah. The question previously agreed uponfor 'debate was: Resolved, that strikes as a meth-od of settling labor disputes should be prohibited and an industrial court be substituted to take their place. By some process not entirely known to us, but evidernly with' some deep philosoa phical foundation, the tea.ms were arrayed thusly: Aftirmative-Ralph-Noah, Earl Shurtz, Beryl XVray. N egative-tllifton Francis, Paul Stevenson, Gladys llf1cEndeHer. ' x - The economic library of the Kansas State Normal School, and talso that ot the Extension Department of the lfniversity of Kansas, were comman- deered. Hon. J. 0. Evans, our representative i11 the Legislature, was called upon to give the benefit of his experience as one of the creat-ors of the Kansas Industrial Court. The pabnlum was-placed within the debaters' reach. No one told them what t-o say. The Misses Glasier andAS::h.lege1 a.nd.liIr. Clawson of teh Faculty helped organize the debate. Sup.t..lV. O. Steen afforded, advice at the right juncture. Much attention was given to the choice and arrange- ment of subject-matter. On the eve of the debate. who would' say- that there was no trepidation? But a reasonable confidence sprang up tha.t,.ba.rring some unpropitious omen, the charge would be sent home to its mark. e On the afternoon of March 30, our affirmative team, accompanied by Miss Glasier and Mr. Loop, went to Clay Center to contest with lthe negative team of that place. The Judges of the debate were Profs. Dafvis a11d Paine of K. S. A. C., and Superintenddent Clement of Junction City. Ralph Noah received the highest standng of our team. The decision was two to o11e in fav-or of our team. O11 the same day of March the affirmative team of Clay Center came to Beloit to meet our negative team.. The debate was held in the Presbyterian Church, Lyllll NVillia1ns, President of the Senior Class, presiding. -The Girls' H. S.. Glce Club and the Male Qnartette furnished the preliminaries. In the debate proper each contestant was all-owed ten minutes for the main speech illltl five minutes for rebuttal. The Judges were Superintendents Berry of Mankato, Farris of Minneapolis and Stalk of Solomon. The presentation of the arguments did credit to all parties concerned. Clifton Francis won the highest standing. The decision of the Judges was' unanimously in favor of the negative. The final averages were Clay Center 83 5-6, Beloit 91 11-12. At Clay Center: Clay Centr 87 5-9g Bloit 88 7-9. The result was indisputable. Some unofficial grading at both places forecast- the same result. Thus -our teams sustained both the affirmative and negative sides of the question in the opinion of the Judges. So mote it be. 3 ?
