By suc- cess is not necessarily meant the accumulation of a large fortune or becoming politically or socially prominent, but a life that has been rounded out in a richer, fuller, more complete usefulness-one that is always at its best. The life that has not been lived thus has not been a successful life in the fullest sense of the word. Discouraging factors arise which make it diffi- cult for a person to do one's best. The prog- ress made toward the goal is so little noticeable that a person begins to wonder whether, after all, the results are worth the effort. No ideal goal can ever be attained, but the aiming to reach this goal is worth while. For after all, the things in life really worth while are the ideal objectives which we endeavor to attain. The effort to attain these ideals causes us to develop into a larger, more complete useful- ness. lf our best moods continually dominated our whole life we would all live well. We all mean to live Wellg at least, there are times with all of us when we resolve to do so, There are cer- tain outstanding periods in ourrlife, such as New Year's Day, our birthday or the day when we are graduated, when the realities of life Stand out in clearer relief than ordinarily, and Miss DRUM Morin MR. PARCHER Commmf impress us with unusual vividness, start in most of us serious thought, and inspire in us lofty aspirations and noble intentions. VVe are apt then to make noble resolutions and to start off in new and higher planes of living. It would be well if there were some way of per- petuating these better moods and living up to our good intentions. It ought not to be impossible to live up to the impulses of our best moods, or, at least, to a much greater degree than most of us realize. In many of these goods intentions one element of weakness lies in their vagueness or indefi- niteness. Vtfe would lie much more apt to suc- ceed in our new purposes if we reduced them to definite and practical shape. If we would bring our hazy ideas of greater usefulness down into some practical forms and then enter at once upon the execution of our resolutions, they would be much more likely to become per- manent, and to grow into our life. Another element of weakness in much of our resolving is that we try to grasp too much of life at one time. We think of it as a whole rather than taking the days one by one. It ought not to be hard to live well one day. Any one should be able to remember others in need and suffering about him, and keep his hand stretched out in helpfulness, for just one day. POLY lBl TECH 13 That is all there is to it. We never have more than one day to live. There are no tomorrows. If we live each day well, all our life will, in the end, be radiant and beautiful. BGS Life is a give-and-take proposition. The more we give, and the less we take, the better off is this little old world of ours, and, strangely enough, the better off are we our- selves, incidentally. The danger to ourselves, and the harm done to others, lies more often in our selfishly grabbing too much, than in our not getting enough. We all sooner or later learn that this applies whenever we are racing carelessly, thoughtlessly, and recklessly Cbut 1. G. TONTZ. not wrecklesslyj along, whether it is at the table, on the streets, or upon the highway. If your efforts as individuals of the June '24 Class in developing this valuable record, THE POLY TECH, have brought to you the realiza- tion of the value, the satisfaction and necessity of self-sacrifice, co-operation and service, of giving freely, cheerfully and voluntarily 3 then the venture has been more than a success, - If by working together on the PoLY TECH you are reminded that living is not a solo or a game of S0lil'G1:1'6,'bl1t that its fullest measure is the sharing with others all that you have, all that you can give, and that if all do the same your returns are unlimited, then you are most generously repaid for this big undertaking. A. SKE1. Editorial We, the members of the june '24 Class, have long looked forward to our graduation, but now that it is at hand and we are about to leave our old school we cannot help being just a little sorry to go out into the world and leave the old rooms, the halls, and haunts that we have learned to like so well. We look with regret at our short activity lists, knowing that we might have joined some of the clubs and become as active as we de- sired. And we look with regret at some of our lower grades, knowing that now they can never be raised. It is our sincere wish that those to whom we leave the school will do better than we have done, that they will profit by our poor ex- ample, so that when it comes time for them to leave the school they will have nothing to regret. We hope' that those who come after us will win more laurels in athletics, raise the average of scholarship in the school, improve the clubs and activities, and put out a better POLY TECH. We would advise the classes which follow us to organize and start work at least a full year before they are to graduate. By doing this there will be more class spirit and a closer fel- lowship brought about by the fellows knowing each other for a longer period of time. In this way the class play can 4 be more carefully chosen and practiced, while the Editor and Business Manager of the POLY TECH will be enabled to work on the issue of the preceding class. In this way they will gain experience which will save them grief. We would advise the underclassmen not to wait any longer to go out for athletics and enter the clubs and activities of the school, but to START IN AT ONCE to improve their grades and try out for their favorite form of athletics, and to join some of the clubs. By doing this and doing it well the underclass men will find when they come to be seniors that they have acquired something more than mere book learning during their years at Benson. .Tig L0 LEXWQILEE C5 EW II.

B ill Reed Vice-President ...... ..... L ouis Amort Secretary ....... . . . Lauren Harris Treasurer ..................... Kyle Rose Sergeant-at-Arms ........... Niel Remore Secretary of Publications. .W. C. Chessman Mr. Phillip Parcher, instructor of me- chanical drawixig in room 28, and faculty adviser of the Camera Club, was chosen as faculty adviser of the Class. One of the two important undertakings of the Class is this Poly Tech. To publish this issue the Class elected Clarence Bitts editor-in-chief, and Leslie Lloyd, business manager, to Work with the Poly Tech Ad- visers, Miss Drummond, Mr. Athey, and Mr. Skei. The Poly Tech is full of pictures and passages which serve to remind us of all those things, pleasant or otherwise, which marked the more-or-less eventful course of our years at Benson. Every Senior treas- ures his Poly Tech because it is the one product which was put out by HIS class. ln this Poly Tech we have succeeded in putting that which other staffs dreamed of. VVe have succeeded in putting into this book a picture of the entire Studentbody and Faculty of the school. Under the leadership and persistent efforts of Leslie Lloyd, the advertising campaign of the Poly Tech has been a success this term. The total amount of advertisements secured being greater than that secured by any former Class. Mr. Lloyd's assistants were: Delmar Johnson and Arthur Naylor. Arthur Anderson did very good work in get- ting ads although he was not on the staff. The complete Poly Tech Staff as selected by the Editor, Business Manager, and Ad- visers is as follows: Editor in Chief ............. Clarence Bitts Business Manager .... ..... L eslie Lloyd Assistant Editor. .. ....... Harry Lang Assistant Editor ........... Earnest Austin Shop Editor ....... .... F rancis Peterson Sport Editor ..... ..... I .auren Harris Assistant Sports ....... ...., E dgar Bader Artist ...................... Kenneth Paul Assistant Business Mgr.. . .Delmar johnson Assistant Business Mgr. .... Arthur Naylor The other undertaking of the Class was a play. The Class decided to give a farce comedy, Stop Thief , and to have girls to take the feminine parts instead of having boys take these parts as was originally sug- gested. The Class was very fortunate in getting Maxine Koon, Virginia Thompson, Marian Dickinson, Louise Buckner and Dorothy Chapman to take these parts. All who saw the play will agree that the Class was right in having feminine characters for these parts and fortunate to get such girls as these to take these parts. The play was very successfully put be- fore the public in the Lincoln High School auditorium on the evenings of April 4 and 5. The last january Class has decided to hold a Grand Reunion in january, l929, and the june Class is planning to meet with them. We trust that the classes following us from now until january '29 will follow suit and make the reunion at that time one of the biggest and best reunions of high school alumnae that ever will have been held. Remember! Juniors and Sophs, and even Freshmen! In january '29 the Grand Re- union of Benson Alumnae. QMaybe we'll have a new gym or an auditorium to meet in thenj. A few days before the Class Play was given, the june Class held a Dress-up- Day -the first event of its.kind ever held in the history of Benson. It was predicted that this attempt would result in failure. due to the non-coeducational nature of the schoolg however, the june Class has shown that it is possible to show a little Class Spirit without the help of the gentler sex. On the day of the dress-up , Seniors were to be seen in every manner of garb that could be imagined. From their straw hats, derbies, and tin helmets to their white Oxfords, caulked boots, and sandals they showed that they had the spirit without which no class can be a success. 30, -T - .n-.PQ..LY - UESLJ ...Wa First Row: .X.

Sinclaair Cfczss Play Stop Thief, a farcical play in three acts by Carlyle Moore, was presented by Benson at the Lincoln High Auditorium on the on the evenings of April 4 and 5 before audiences totalling twelve hundred people. Mrs. Bess Vtfhitcomb coached the play. The first week was taken up in tryouts held in room 28. Three weeks was the actual time given to the study of the play. Mrs. VVhitco1nb, Mr. Parcher, and the business Staff did all in their power to make f'Stop Thief a success in so short a time. Only one dress rehearsal was held, so it can be readily understood just how hard the entire class play cast had to work in order that the production be as nearly perfect as possible. Rehearsals were held in Mrs. NVhitcomb's office, where furniture, etc., was placed so as to correspond to the stage setting in Stop Thief . The cast is not flattering Mrs. Whitcomb the least bit by addressing her as their most worthy and beloved coach, because they know what she has to contend with during the production of a school play in which amateurs take part. The play was a suc- cess financially and artistically as an ar- dent admirer put it. The june '24 class wishes to thank Mrs. lYhiteomb for the efficient coaching and the faculty and students alike for the hearty support given them during the playing of Stop Thief . The june '24 class is also grateful to the young ladies that participated in Stop Thief . Their acting was splendid, and g POLY IB! TECH St their prompt attendance at all rehearsals was commendable. The success of the class play depended largely on the feminine roles. And it was a success! Miss Maxine Koon played the role of Lola Pratt in the play entitled Seven- teen presented by the january '24 class of Washington High School. Miss Koon, as Mrs, Carr , in Stop Thief , was second to none in acting the part of an elderly, fussy type of lady. Credit must be given to her for her most extraor- dinary portrayal of Mrs Carr . Several of the audience had the nerve to inquire if Maxine naturally had that tone of voice. Miss Thompson as Nell, the lady's maid in Stop Thief, played the part of a maid exceedingly well, but she was still better as a crook's accomplice. Miss Louise Buckner played the role of leading lady in the play entitled, Mamma's Affairf' presented by the January ,24 class of Franklin High School. Miss Buckner, as Joan Carr in Stop Thief, played her part to perfection. Some thought her a professional actress. Miss Marian Dickinson of the June '24 class of Washington High School, as Madge Carr in Stop Thief, was simply exquisite as a young fiance to James Cluneyf' Miss Dorothy Chapman of the june '24 Class of Lincoln High School, as Caroline Carr in Stop Thief, was stunning. She nearly succeeded in vamping the burly Ser- geant of Police. Arthur Palmer, as James Cluney, could not have been more excited if he had been a bridegroom and a kleptomaniac. Kenneth Murhard, as Mr. Jamison, played the part of an elderly business man just as if he really had been one for years. Carson Bailey, as Dr. Willoughby, could easily have given Valentino a few good pointers on making love. Samuel Haimark, as Rev, Spelain, was a scream. He captured more than his share of laughs. We are almost certain that Sam- uel will enter the ministry . Louis Amort, as Jack Doogan, played the role of leading man. He could hold his own against any gang of crooks, and the best detectives too. It takes Louis to squeeze out of tight places. Alvin Arndt, as joe Thompson, the de- tective, set a good example for any amateur would-be detective to follow, but even the best of them sometimes miss their clue. Max Henderson, as Sergeant of Policef' and his fellow officers, Leroy Simpson as f'Officer O'Malley, Kyle Rose as Officer Clancey,', and Edward Ottersteadt as Of- ficsffr O'Brien, are close rivals to Portland's cel ent squad material here. Peter Sinclair, as A Chauffeurf' can cer- tainly Hstick ,em upn when he is looking into the barrel of an automatic in the hands of a desperate man. Peter need not go hun- gry, so long as chauffeurs are needed. Paul Frey, as XVilliam Carrf' suddenly finest. graduated into an elderly, absent-minded gentleman who caused a laugh a minute. The school orchestra played several de- lightful numbers during the performance. The business staff for Stop Thief was as follows: Coach ............... Mrs. Bess Whitcomb General Assistant ...... Mrs. Philip Parcher Business Manager. . .NVilliam D. Chessman Asst. Bus. Manager ....... Earl McCulloch Stage Manager ................ Kyle Rose Property and Costume Manager..

Mr. Cleveland opened the meeting by in- troducing Mr. Lucas as the faculty adviser of the january class. Mr. Lucas is a grad- uate of this school and now takes care of the Employment Bureau. The boys were urged to keep up their work from the start. thus eliminating the danger of having to graduate as a member of the following class. Mr. Cleveland then suggested that a new system of handling the numerous applica- tions for class officers. He proposed the following: A committee was to be appointed by the faculty adviser, and all applications were to be handed to the chosen members. The plan was carried out and was found to be very successful. At the following meeting the election of officers took place with the result that Wil- bur Grant carried the Presidencyg Preston Varney, the Vice-Presidencyg Philip Lund- strom, the Secretaryship, and Wilho Beck, the Treasureship. Miles Ten Eyck was elected Business Manager of the class issue of the Poly Tech, and at the next meeting Arlyn Cole .was elected Editor. Stanley Jagelski was elected Sergeant-at-Arms. The Editor and Business Manager were given the privilege of selecting their own staff. After the election was over, everyone started to work on the numerous problems that confronted the class. President Grant appointed a committee to look into the subject of pins for the class. Johnston was appointed chairman of the committee, and at a later meeting presented bids and samples of work from various com- panies. Mr. Lucas suggested that work on select- ing the class play be started immediately. Preston Varney was appointed the chair- man of the class play committee. A great deal of looking around is being done by the committee. As the January class is expected to decor- ate the auditorium in which the june class is to be graduated a committee was ap- pointed to work on the problem. Parsons is chairman. A get-together affair was proposed to be held by the two Senior classes and every- body fell for the plan. Many different ideas have been brought out concerning this get-together and the class play. Another of the class activities is the Poly Tech. Every graduating class of Benson puts out an issue of the magazine. The staff is chosen by the Editor and Business Manager from applications. The paper gives a complete history of all organizations of the school and has a full page picture of each club. All sports are covered with a complete write-up of each game, accom- panied with an action picture of each mem- ber of the various teams. The graduates appear as individuals in large size cuts. The January class and staff will do all in their power to make their issue of the Poly Tech the best ever put out by a grad- uating class of this school and they are sure its pages will be memories, dear 'to the stu- dents in future years.

The Executive Board also has charge of all the Studentbody funds. The shops are represented on a percent- age basis, the rates being one' representative to every fifty students. Y. The Executive Board is completed with a president, vice-president, secretary, and student treasurer, who are the student body officers, and with a faculty adviser and treasurer. T y A student may take partiin many school activities, but he has not completed his high school life in its fullest measure until he has been a member of theiexecutive board as it brings him in contact with all the branches of the school and keeps him well informed as to the conditions that exist. As a whole, the executive board of this semester has paved the way for bigger things in school activities and also has made history for Benson by appropriating the money for two tennis courts and two hand- ball courts, by awarding numerals to fresh- man athletics and athletic certificates to lettermen and by loaning the Grant High School five hundred dollars without inter- est. The present members of this executive board are: President, William Reid, Vice- President, Clarence Bittsg Secretary, jack Lacey, and Student Treasurer, Max Hen- derson. The Tech Representatives are: Geo. Amato, L. Beck, NV. Beck, Chessman, W. Grant, A. Downs, P. Varney, Zinn, Vaughn, R. Harvey, W. Fallen, L. Lloyd, W. Manville, F. Peterson, Electric Repre- sentatives: G. Bryson, O. Caputo, L. Skaggs: Gas Engine Representative, S. Iagelski, W. Sharp: Printing Representa- tives, Darrel Austin, A. Cole, Plumbing Representative, A. Johnston, Drawing Rep- resentative, A. Runtz, NVoodworking Rep- resentative, L. Olson, and Blacksmith Rep- resentative, L. Hoffman. 7266 Pep Siaf The Tech Pep won the first prize for gen- eral mechanical makeup and second honor- able mention for a news story, at a conven- tion of staff members of the various high school publications throughout Oregon this spring. The issue which took the prize was that which contained the news story and pictures of the ship Kobenhaun', and her crew. At that time Theo Zehrung occupied the editorial chair. Leslie D. Lloyd edited several issues at the last of the term, after the resignation of Zehrung. At the beginning of the fall term, the pa- per underwent a radical change, as far as the circulation department was concerned. The publication was given free of charge to every member of the Benson Tech Student- body, outside subscriptions remaining at the original cost. By the change, the cost of studentbody tickets was lowered to twenty-five cents, allowing practically every student in attend- ance to receive his copy each week. The paper has been supporting itself ever since by means of advertising. A practical businesslike system of adver- tising was instituted during the fall term. A number of new solicitors was added to the staff and work was begun in a some- what systematic manner. At the first of the term, the publication day was changed from Thursday to Friday. A fact of great importance is that after the beginning of the term, not once was the paper late in publishing, due to the faithful 1 POLY lBl TFCHY diwT51T work and co-operation of the staff members, printing students, and faculty. After a drive which lasted a number of weeks and plans which had been formulated long past, the size of the Tech Pep was in- creased to seven columns. In the accom- plishment of this end, Seven Columns or Bust, was adopted as a motto. The seven columns came, and nothing busted'. Richmond W. Hurd, editor-in-chief, and Miles Ten-Eyck, business manager, were delegated to represent the Tech Pep at the educational exposition held at O. A. C. A host of new ideas and subject matter was brought back to the school. Some of the interesting features of the term's work are: The completion of the soft soapu controversy, which, in the end, accomplished an unusual amount of good, two bunk', columns, Thunder and Light- ning, and The Tech Pup Scraps He Picks up Here and There , the best exchange de- partment ever establishedg the institution of a seven column paper, and the always on time schedule. Richmond W. Hurd, a second-term tech- nical student at Benson, held the office of editor-in-chief. Miles Ten Eyck showed unusual ability and work as business man- ager. Paul Frey, June '24 class member, worked as assistant editor, and Clarence Craw, January '25 class member, news ed- itor. The other departments were covered by the following: Advertising solicitors, D. Horseman, P. Shaw, T. Sternweis, E. Wan- dell, M. Wfalker, E. Gerspach, R. Church, R. Pearce, Reporters, A. T. Gill, C. Craw, VV. H. West, R. Gilmore, M. Walker, D. Mozes, L. Gilbertson, G. Gatzka, H. Tur- nerg Clubs, R. C. VVrightg Alumni, L. Simp- son, Shops, A. Cole, V. Huston, Radio, W. Mock, Exchanges, R. Church, Sports, L. Harris, E. Bader, M., VVood, Gabriel, H. Thomas, Features, J. A. Britton: Circula- tion, R. Harvey, E. Gerspach, G. Green: Cartoons, Philip Lundstrom, Kennth Paul. The work of Mr. Athey, the faculty ad- viser, and Mr. Skei, business adviser, aided greatly in making the success of the Tech Pep during the spring of 1924. Zllimzie Mm ln the spring of 1921 a group of students were elected by popular vote and organized as the Minute Men of this school. At the beginning of each term, each room elects two students to act throughout the term as minute men and second men. K The duties of minute men are to sell tickets to every activity held by the school or in which the school takes part. Al- though the minute men are kept busy from minute man, to keep his position, must one end of the term to the other every maintain passing grades in every subject. After the election, a meeting of the min- ute men is held for the purpose of electing a president, vice-president, secretary, and sergeant-at-armsg and to outline the work for the term. Every minute man is urged on by keen competition to hold up his end of the work. To promote competition two pennants are given, one each year to the room selling the greatest percentage of Tech Show tickets, and one each term to the room selling its full quota of student body tickets first. Each term a get-together is held where the minute men and second men meet for a good time. Mr. Harry Halstead, one of the machine shop instructors, in the capacity of faculty adviser has inspired the fellows to better salesmanship. The officers for the term were: President, Louis Amort, vice-president, Earnest Zinn: secretary, Vance Huntley: treasurer, ...... . . . . . . 1 faculty adviser, Mr. Halstead. 42 , LY LMI TE c, g1 5 I INUTE MEX M EI P A Pu px.. x.

At the beginning of each school year an election is held by members of the squad of the previous year. The offi- cers elected are Chief, Assistant Chief, and three Battalion Chiefs, who handle the fire drills and look for fire hazards for the com- ing year. The shops are divided into battalions and it is the duty of a Battalion Chief to go to his battalion during a fire drill and see if all the doors and windows are closed and all the students are out. A fire drill is called every week and the building is emptied in an average ti-me of one minute and fifteen seconds. Each shop has a captain and some hose- men, who take care of the fire extinguishers and hose. It is their duty to see that the boys in their shops leave the building quickly and orderly. There is at least one fireman in every T66 The Benson Polytechnic School Band has just closed a very successful season, hav- ing played at all the football, basketball and baseball games this year, besides playing out at several other entertainments. The band was formed when this school was in its infancy and was known as the Portland School of Trades. The school was in the old Atkinson School Building then. Mr. Coomber was the first leader and in- structor of the band. Under his guidance the band rose to fame and had many attrac- tive offers to play. In the years 1914 to 1917, Mr. Brerton, now a Theory teacher, had charge of the band. This musical organization was the only school band entered in the 1914 Rose Festival and the only one in the Letter Day Parade, and in 1916 it was the only school band present at the Food Fete in the Ice Hippodrome. Mr. Stoudenmyer, the present instructor and director, came here in 1921. He has room at any time of the day. Fire badges were given to all the mem- bers of the Fire Squad this year. This en- ables each fireman to be recognized by the students in fire drills. If a student disobeys any of the fire drill laws during a fire drill he is liable to arrest by any of the firemen. He is then brought before the principal. Each year the Fire Squad takes an active part in the Tech Show by looking for any fire which may start. They also guide vis- itors around the school. This organization is considered to be one of the most important in the school, as it puts order in any fire drill and keeps the students from going into disorder in case a real fire occur. The Faculty Adviser is Mr. Connolly and the officers are: A. Johnson, Chief, I. Lacey, Assistant Chief, G. Lauder, A. Corn- foot and R. Holloway, who are Battalion Chiefs. Bam! had much experience in band work and is an able instructor. In the fall of 1921 the bandmen started a can-dy stand to raise money for the pur- chase of uniforms. The band operated the stand for over a year and, as it was a money-making proposition it was then turned over to the studentbody and it is in their hands at the present. The band at present consists of twenty- one members, besides the Faculty Adviser and Director. The present members are: Cornets-T. Ebbert, N. Fox, F. Holbrook, M. Moller, G. Ten Eyck, G.

It was organized in the year of 1921 under the leadership of Mr. Parcher, It has been de- an instructor in the school. veloping rapidly since that time and is now under the leadership of Mr..Rutherford, also an instructor in the school. During this term, the played at a majority of the assemblies held in school, besides playing for the Tech Show on all three nights. In addition, it has played outside of the school on several occasions. It was greatly appreciated at the Class Play and on one occasion, when the Orchestra played at the Russelville School, the music was proclaimed as won- derful. The Girls' Polytechnic School ex- tended an invitation for the Orchestra to play at their class play, which was accepted. The crowning event in the career of the Orchestra for this term was the fact that they played for the banquet given by the Chamber of Commerce in honor of Mr. Simon Benson. The Orchestra is very fortunate this year, not only in having Mr. Rutherford for faculty adviser and director, but in having Orchestra has a remarkable supply of talent. As the ma- jority of this talent will be back next year, the Orchestra has a fine opportunity to make a name for itself again. Such an organization in the school af- fords a chance for splendid training for all who care to make use of it. The rehearsals are held during school time, so that all can attend. The Orchestra has received loyal support from the student body and the executive board. Much new material has been pro- vided. The following is a list of the members for this term: Violins: Harold Masher, Howard Cauthers, Logan Hays, Carlton Collins. Clarinets: Ar- thur Palmer, Charles Slinger.

When first started the competition with six or seven popcorn wagons was keen and a typ- ical Coney Island stand drew business across the street. The money was raised by the following june. .Xfter the first year the stand was turned over to competent students who had time to spare. All proceeds, over one thousand dollars a year, are turned over to the Stu- dent llody fund. At the present time over sixty-five varie- ties of sweetmeats are carried in stock and with the addition of popcorn halls and crisp- ettes the number of popcorn wagons near llenson has been reduced to one or two. The stand is operated on the co-operative plan, the members of the force, four in num- ber, receive no compensation but a l'. H. S. monogram for one year's service. During' the last term the stand has been operated by iXrthur Sell as manager, Ron- ald llarvey as assistant manager, and liu- gene Rydman and Raymond U'Ncel as co- workers. Mr. Ilolden, head of the black- smith department, is faculty adviser, and Mr. Laney, a drawing instructor, is the treasurer. The students and faculty are the sole sup- port of the candy stand except during the Tech Show, when for three nights it caters to the general public. ,C .1iQ.L.Y Bl TECH . First Row: E.

This Board was organized two years ago when the need for co-operation between the student body and the library became obvi- ous and it has since fulfilled nearly every hope of its originators. The membership consists of twenty-five students who are selected by the Librarian and some of the faculty. These boys are representative of the school for they are chosen from all terms and shops. Each of these members pays particular attention to the books pertaining to the shop he is inter- ested in. In this way, a close watch is kept on all of our books. The object of this board is to add to the usefulness of, and to create interest in the library. The members also try to prevent the loss of books. They in- vestigate all cases of this kind. Each Christmas, the members decorate the library. Usually they put a Christmas tree and hang holly wreaths and fir boughs up on the walls. For each Tech show the Library Board decorates the library so that it is always one of the most attractive places in the school. Some of the members are always present to assist visitors and to an- swer their questions. The Library Board meets once a month on the first Tuesday of the month. The Board has four committees-The Publicity Committee, the Book Committee, the Decor- ation Committee, and the Bulletin Board Committee. The members do all that they can to pro- mote the care of the books in the library. 53 Ex!sHKKiia1ZiiIEXi'1 Mi IEW?-Em-WLBZSXYQSHELT ' 'X L if ZfA f P 0 LX V Bl T E c H 49 2 if ' 1 ri'-1' li Ei '-' wi A l4 , iff I 'E i ss 2 F5 -1 r .-: i K Q , 1 .457 5 5 5 .E .,?..-'S Y fm 2 3 Q ! , 25 Y - V - '4 'Q Q i .avfivk -5 - P52 f 7-in -4,.,.

The purpose of the club is to unite its members in fellowship and to combine their efforts so as to promote the scientific and practical efficiency of their studies. To become a member of this club, one must not only be a student in architecture but he must also have a grade of G or better in drawing. Also any member get- ting a U in any subject is suspended from the club, and any member getting two U's will be dropped until he has brought his grade up to the average of HG . Each term a contest is held in which all the members must take part. This term the contest was divided into two groups, one division for the first to third term stu- dents and the other for the fourth to eighth term students. The subject of the contest for the first division was a freehand drawing of the egg and dart moulding, brad and fillet mould- ing, and a design of a rosette. The subject of the contest for the second division was the planning of a six-room house, the plans included a basement plan, all floor plans, at least two elevations, con- cise structural details, and such full sized details as were necessary. The work was judged by some of the most prominent architects of Portland. The drawings were also on exhibit at the Tech show. The roll of the club consists of -I. Baker, P. Bradley, W. Chessman, T. A. Fyock, I. Nicols, A. Runtz, R. Turner, F. Walsh, E. Riehl, M. Levin, K. Murhard, W. Arvin, E. Lawler, R. Pearce, J. Fuller, A. Hilgers and H. Dippert. The club officers elected for this term are: President, A. Runtzg Vice-President, R. Turner, Treasurer, Thomas R. Fyockg Sec- retary, Joaquin Baker, Sergean-at-Arms, Romney Pearce. Mr. A. H. Smith, drawing instructor, is the faculty adviser. Benson Yeon Boosters The leading clubs in the school, and, as its name its first objective is to contrive Benson Tech Boosters is one of the implies, ways and means for serving the school, either in a business or a social way. The club has done a great deal in increas- ing and maintaining the good appearance of the buildings and grounds such as putting up signs prohibiting bicycles from travers- ing the lawn, repairing the dirt walks near the electric shop, preventing papers from being thrown about the rooms and halls. In addition, the Boosters never fail to offer their services during the annual Tech Show. In the past the Boosters have at- tended to the decorating of the south half of the school for the show, and the members have acted as an information committee for the benefit of the visitors during the shows. An additional service rendered by the club this term was the waiting on tables at luncheons given in the cafeteria to the guests of the school. The club also takes an active part in the social life of the school. By giving dances for the school during the term the club helps to put the students on a finer basis of goodfellowship. The club has maintained its reputation for admitting only those students to mem- bership whose grades are well up and whose moral ideals are high. The organization is one of the best in the school for developing a fellow's sense of honor and duty and the various committees necessary for the com- pletion of the work of the club are so ap- pointed that each member is assigned to one or more committees, thereby giving him an opportunity to exercise his initiative and executive ability. The latest innovation of the club is the organization of the Benson Tech Boosters' Orchestra. This orchestra is composed of members of the club only and affords any member with musical inclinations a chance to develop his talents. fi' i l T i IEUOSTIZR BENSON T EC H xi Q ur Pm a. 23 :E E v-I IJ M u 'J 1: m 'U H J 441 Q v: A P 1 uf E A w v-4 J If ai : 'z E ,Q .J Li S GJ F ,cu 1 c: KZ 4-' up L1 ul 11 ns: ...4 2 E N L:-I .. ..

M. C. A. Every school in Portland has a Hi Y Club and not one of these schools is sorry of the club's existence. The purpose of the club is to create, maintain and extend throughout your school and community, high standards of Christian character. This standard is a hard one to beat. The club does any thing that is bene- ficial to the school, such as putting up fences. The officers of the club are: Lauren Har- ris, Presidentg Kenneth Paul, Vice-Presi- dent, Earl McCulloch, Secretary, Stewart VVilloughby, Treasurerg and Charles John- son, Sergeant-at-Arms: Mr. S. W. Law- rence, an official of the Kiwanis Club and a live citizen, is our adviser. All meetings of the club are held on Monday evenings in the General Secretary's room at the Y. M. Orange Any student who has earned a letter in some branch of athletics in the school is eligible to membership in the Orange B Club. The club recently held a dancing party at the home of Mr. Brace, who is one of the faculty members. A delightful time was enjoyed by all. Plans are now beginning for the initia- tion, which is held once a term. It is on this occasion that the new lettermen have a chance to show what courage they have. The initiations are generally held one after football season and another after baseball season. The new members are allowed to come to the meetings before the initiation, but are not allowed to vote. The club recently adopted a plan of hav- ing a large book in which will be kept all C. A. The club membership is limited to twenty-five members and all of these must be well qualified in scholarship, leadership, character, and honesty. No man is voted in the club who has an average grade under eight-five. The club has gone into social affairs only a little way as they are working hard on school affairs and several other things, however, they held a large dancing party at the home of their Adviser, Mr. Lawrence, and have held several stag dinners lately. One big feature of the Hi Y Club is the annual conference that is held at Seaside every year. At this conference every Hi Y in the city goes to Seaside and has the time of his life besides getting together with his fellow members and discussing the differ- ent problems that come up in the numerous clubs. The entire trip is made for five dol- lars and a better time than this for the money is hardly possible. B Cfnn the pictures of the members, including alumni. This book is kept by Mr. Craig, and the members of the club are supposed to get a picture of themselves, preferably in some athletic uniform. The club is under the leadership of Mr. Craig and the officers for the past term were: Bill Reed, President, Clifford Cox, Vice-President, Earl McCulloch, Secretary: D. Vaughn, Treasurer, Neil Remore, Ser- geant-at-Arms. One of the big projects launched by the club during the term was the shop track meet. A member was assigned to each shop and his duty was to get as many entrants from that shop as possible. The purpose of this meet was to find available track mate- rial.

Camera Club Photography offers a means by which the creative side of a person's nature may find expression. This seems to be the main rea- son for the success. of the Tech Camera Club. Possibly the many hikes taken dur- ing the term have also acted as a stimulus. Through the kindness of the Executive Board the club was supplied with a new enlarging camera. The darkroom where all the developing, printing, and enlarging is done, is equipped as well as many commer- cial establishments are. It is the duty of Melvin Surface, inspector, to see that the darkroom is kept in a clean and orderly con- dition. Ex-members of the club are allowed the use of the darkroom during night school. At the beginning of the term a very suc- cessful hike and trip to Pacific Beach was taken. The beach was explored from one end to the other and pictures were taken of all the scenic points.. The next hike was taken to Larch Moun- tain. Seven members made the climb to the top in a raging blizzard and hail storm. Taking pictures was impossible under such weather conditions and the hike was a fail- ure from that standpoint. Every one had a good time, however. A trip to White Salmon and return, was the next undertaking of the club. Arthur Holmberg's car found the mud too deep for it and stopped in a large mud puddle on the North Bank Highway. It took a good half- hour of hard work, to extract the car from its muddy hold. The big hike of the term is planned for the latter part of the term. Mount Hood is the goal of the club. The officers for the term are: Club Ad- viser, Mr. P. Parcherg President, Leslie D. Lloydg Vice-President, Clarence Bittsg Sec- retary, Arthur Holmberg: Treasurer, Nor- man Bakerg Secretary of Publications, Mel- vin Surface, Sergeant-at-Arms, Ewart Cowls. Kumpzzs Klub The officers of the Kumpus Klub for the spring term are Arthur Anderson, Presi- dent, Delmar johnson, Vice-President, Merrick Bradford, Secretary, and Preston Varney, Treasurer. The Faculty Adviser is Mr. Harrison. Any student majoring in mechanical drawing and having a satisfactory grade is eligible for this club. The aim of this organization is to give the members a broader knowledge of engineer- ing. Debates and lectures are features that are sponsored by the program committee. Through the efforts of the program com- mittee some very interesting talks and lec- tures have been given. VVilbur Grant talked on the subject of French Aerial Railways, and jack Clark gave a talk on the subject of Airplanes, which dealt with the construc- tion and operation of the different types of planes. At the June graduation, the club will lose several popular members. The graduating members are: Arthur Anderson, Delmar johnson, Charles Johnson, and Leslie Lloyd. An address is to be given by Mr. Lloyd, Sr., who has been a captain of a ship on the Great Lakes. His talk will principally re- late to the everyday life on a boat, its un- loading and operations through which it has to go. Last year the Kumpus Klub won over the other drawing students in the semi-annual lettering contest. The members of the club are grasping every opportunity in order to be the winners this term.

Each year it has been steadily increasing its membership. The greatest factor towards the success of this organization is the accessibility to one of the most scenic regions in the United States. Here are found miles of mountains, forests, and streams contained in the Mt. Hood National Forest Reserve and border- ing the now nationally known Columbia River Gorge. Innumerable trails built by the Forest Rangers to patrol these forests have afforded the club an opportunity to penetrate easily in many directions the beau- ties of the high mountains surrounding Mt. Hood. The club has gained the confidence and assistance of the Forest Service by their ob- servance of the rules and by their co-opera- tion in the up-keep of the camps and cabins loaned to them by the Rangers. These hikes are not only a never-ending source of pleasure and good fellowship to the members of the club but afford them a close study of nature and forestry which is supplemented by lectures and motion pic- tures given at club meetings. The most interesting hikes taken this sea- son were to Squaw Mountain where the club members were the first to ascend the mountain this spring without the aid of snow shoes or skiisg to lVatum Lake over the scenic Eagle Creek trail, and to Rockaway on the coast where they climbed Mt. Nea- kahnie. All red-blooded boys who like the out- doors and at the end of a dayis hike like to sit and hear the sizzling of the bacon and .snapping of the camp fire are cordially in- vited to join the club and there meet kindred spirits of forest and trail. Officers for the spring term are: M. Ten Eyck, Presidentg Clarence A. Bitts, Vice- Presidentg C. Parsons, Secretary: G. Ten Eyck, Treasurer, and N. Remore, Secretary of Publications, Membership Committee, Floyd Holbrook. Science Club The main activity supported in the past term by the Benson Tech Science Club was hiking. February brought around good weather and consequently the active members began plan- ning for a hike. Finally all agreed to take a trip to Rockaway Beach. The main obstacle to be overcome was getting means of trans- portation. Through the kindness of some members of the faculty and one student enough machines were provided to take all that wished to go. To make a larger crowd, the Oyer- un-gon Club was also invited to take the trip. The crowd left immediately after dismissal of school on Friday. There were three machines and so as not to lose track of each other it was agreed upon to meet in Sheridan. All ar- rived in Sheridan about five-thirty and the party had lunch. After everyone was satisfied, traveling was resumed. Due to the rough roads and fog, Rockaway was not reached until midnight. The cottages were found and all turned ini' for a rest. Aifter breakfast the clubs either went hiking or fishing. Some went to Bar View jetty to try their luck at fishing, while the rest climbed the rugged slope of Mt. Neah-kah-nie. The time went too fast for most of the boys, but after such a wonderful trip they were ready to go back to the cottages. The boys had appe- tites like wolves, so the food didn't stay on the table very long. Bly the time the dishes were washed it was time for bed. The next morning, after the cottages were cleaned, the trip back home was started. A hike was also taken to Larch Mountain. The boys left Portland at eight olclock one Saturday morning and reached the ranger sta- tion on the top about three. During the morn- ing of the next day trips were taken to points of interest and in the afternoon they started back. POLY lB I TECH 4 Il SCI ENCIAQ ELL' Juhns. R Downs. R. Self. Fowler. uhnsun. AX.

L' 'D PoLY lBk TECH 63 Radio Club One of the most interesting and active clubs in theschool is the Benson Tech Radio Club under the leadership of Clyde Buschman. The club room is the rendezvous of the members at noon and after school. Its at- tractions are the magazine, the receiving sets and the code table. The code table has an omnigraph which can be run at any desirable speed, thus en- abling one to receive higher speeds as he improves, and also it has an arrangement of keys, each having its own call and con- nected to a practice buzzer. Each key has a call number and a two-way conversation can be carried on. The instruction afforded by this table has given several members the honor of receiving a license. The club owns a three-circuit tuner with two steps of amplification that has a wide Ybofmclkevfs The Toolmakers have just completed a very successful term. Several dies have been turned out and some old ones repaired. This work requires a great deal of time and thought. Taps and dies have played a prominent part in the work this term and among them were pipe taps and pulley tops. These lat- ter are special taps made partly to the standard dimensions and partly to local de- sign for special use. A great many cutters have been made. Among them are radius cutters, angle cut- ters, and saw cutters, all of which are used in the shop. Reamers have supplied a plentiful amount of work. Two or three spiral, taper burning reamers, as well as machine and hand ream- ers, both taper and straight, have been com- pleted. As this work includes all sorts of tool work, many small odd jobs have been completed. Among these jobs were special taps for bench vise repair and the punching of checks for the B , P and S check students. The making of plug gauges has been wave length range. The members also test their receivers and compare them with oth- ers operating under the same condition. The library has all the current radio mag- azines and also several radio books which serve as a reference work for the members of the club. The club has contemplated building a fifty-watt transmitter which can be made easily, as many parts are in the club rooms already. This is to replace the old spark set under the call 7YK. The progress made by the organization is due largely to our faculty adviser, Mr. R. T. Stephens. The officers for this term are: President, Clyde Buschmang Vice-President, Helge XVesterlundg Secretary, Ralph Weaver, Treasurer, Blount, Secretary of Publica- tions, D. Mozesg Sergeant-at-Arms, Smith. 14.v.v0cz'afz'0n p another important part of the term's work. Plug gauges must be ground so as to have absolutely no taper, and must also have a high finish, consequently, much time is re- quired for each one. - Two straight-edges have been made for the Gas Engine Department. These straight- edges must be ground accurately and, owing to their extra length, the job is made in- creasingly difficult. One large hob for hobbing a gear is being made and this is the largest job of the term outside of dies. H. Matheson, C. Hilton, A. Hilton and C. Robinson have practically completed all of the time which they had to make up, and the following boys will graduate in June: W. Reed, A. Cornfoot, J. Tracey and A. Pfaff. These students will all have completed their allotment of work and also will have served their time as inspectors in the shop. This job of inspector gives the toolmakers an opportunity to study out problems pertain- ing to the work and in that way to equip themselves with some of the knowledge re- quired in the commercial field.

Ti? -253 'i are T126 Inter-sfellariie BY PHILIP LUNDSTROM S I walked down Main street the other day, I was ac- costed by an elderly gentle- man with a benevolent but weary countenance. Can you direct me to 49062 50th Avenue, South ? I can that, sir, and as I have not much to do today, business being dull, I will con- duct you there myself, I answered. You are very kind sir, he said, and for this service I will repay you by relating to you the story of a trip, the first of its kind ever made. You may not think this much compensation, sir, but you will see later that this will have pleased you more than any pecuniary imbursement which I might have made. I was frankly disinterested as one might very aptly be on a hot day with the sweaty teeming populace standing at every corner to offer suggestions on various uninterest- ing subjects. I-Ie began: Twenty or so years ago it was my fortune to fall in with the renowned Professor Leonidas Peabody, head of the institute of Astronomical Observatory of Mars. This worthy professor had been and was making a special study of Mars and was working on an invention designed to make transportation to that planet possible. Less than two years ago he saw the consumma- tion of his most cherished objective and he and I being co-workers on it, decided to test it out together. It was well after midnight on a certain day six seasons ago that he and I left this world in quest of a new. For reasons of our own we started out in an unfrequented part of town and at an hour when all that are good are in bed. To explain our departure would be to give the secret of our device away as it is simplicity itself and is only the result of years of experimenting on an inspiration. VVell sir, to make a long story short, we adjusted our machine for Mars, making sure it was well stocked with provisions, and with all the elements in our favor we em- barked on our singular journey. As luck would have it, it was found, very much to my pain and sorrow Cas well as hisj that we had failed to take into consideration the vital law of inertia, thus it was that when I awoke I found myself, together with everything movable, thrown against the wall bruised out of all recognition of myself. But this was not the conclusion of our troubles, however, as I soon found out. The uppermost thought in our minds when building the engine had been that of speed at any cost, so it was that when cover- ing the distance of 47586359.5463 432f69542 miles in the time of about seven hours, and being jerked about by the gravity of each new solar body provided no little consterna- tion between us. Even at one time we but barely missed a collision with the sun, to say nothing of the lesser planets by which we went hurtling on our mission sky-ward. Probably the most satisfactory way to explain our actual trip would be to say that it was filled with the most terrible exper- iences imaginable. Sea-sickness was the least of our troubles: our senses were numbed and half the time one or the other of us would be unconscious. After this horrible, torturous nightmare we finally were much relieved to find that the machine was slowing down: it had been set precisely for the required distance, and gradually was settling toward some attrac- tion, presumably Mars. Thus it was that at the comparatively slow rate of about sixty miles an hour we were plunged into one of the numerous canals of the planet. I verified the knowledge that this was Mars by the fact that when swimming to shore his body floated with 36984f43789 under the water as is the case in all Martian PMT I T I A I 62 waters. At the brink of the canal I noticed that there were 593,062,743 people to meet us. Then it was that I knew that we were in the Glindink province which had a corre- sponding population. Also that due to the fact that there were 5,496,782,051,843,698 stars in the sky at that time it was seven o'c1ock in the morning. Some of these Martians I knew person- ally, having previously perfected a radio telepathic instrument through which I had many times conversed with them-. hi 49062 50th Avenue, South, I interrupted im. Oh, thank you sir, won't you come in and meet Professor Peabody, he returned. BOE Well I--I-, I scrutinized the insignia hanging below the address on my friend's palatial residence, I don't really believe I could come in now. A'fully busy, y' know, and I turned on my heel and walked swiftly down the street. After walking thus for about a block I stopped and retrieved my handkerchief from its sweaty pocket and mopped up my sweaty brow. I might have known some- thing was haywire. If ever I pay those boys a visit I'm gonna have protection. That's one place I'm going to keep shy of till the next February thirty-first. Let's see now, THE HOLLYDOWN HOSPITAL FOR THE INSANE.

And then awakens my fancy, And my mind, it wanders away, My body inert and inactive, Becomes but a lump of dull clay. Then many leagues are encompassed, With speed of the lightning flash, For nought is as fast as the flight of a thought, Not even the Thunder Clap. Mountain streams around me tumble, Mountain moss lies underfootg Mountain trees that pierce the heavens, Grasp the earth with thick, deep root. And a maze of fusing shadows, Caused by sun and bough above, Play on the foliage round me, Where the birds sing songs of love. fail T130 Lv i gpgfreitcnilip T A Day by cz Mouniain Stream By WATSON A long spring day we've wandered A fishing a mountain stream. away, Through rushing gorge where shadows Playa And limpid pools, serene.

All hands were lying around smoking and reading, enjoying a well-earned rest. The weather up till sailing time had been warm and stillg it was yet warm, but a brisk southwest wind had blown up and crested the gentle billows of the river as far as eye could see. A sudden puff of wind blew the paper from the hands of one of the old salts reclining on the deck. Hecast a look along the southern horizon where small, scudding clouds had begun to slip over the coast range mountains, and observed with a grum- ble, Weill ship water 'fore we see San Pedro this tripfl An old man, long and gaunt, with a tan- ned leather visage and deep set eyes, looked up from his paper and affirmed this with a nod and a grunt, then sat staring vacantly into space. His companion, who had been his shipmate for several years, was the one who had spoken first and he now eyed his friend from beneath grizzled brows and asked, VVell, Dan. I s'pose as usual this re- minds you of another yarn 7' Dan looked slowly up from his reverie and answered, Yes, reckon it does: this an' what I been readin' in the paperf' NN'hat you been readin'?,' asked his friend as Dan showed signs of again lapsing into memories of times long past. Oh, just a new story 'bout how one lo the rum runners hangin' off the Jersey coast gave the slip to a gov'ment cutter. This re- minds me of a time in the early spring o' 794rT97 Italy wndjgn The sailors sitting near the two who had held the above conversation began to edge closer. Dan was noted for his stories and the news that he was spinning another one soon leaked out. All hands but those on duty slipped quietly up and joined the circle. -and we'd never lost a chase. Yessir, boys, the 'White Swallow' was the fastest on the coast. She was long and narrerg slender and graceful as her name,-fast,- the terror o' the 'runners'. Dan's eyes flashed as he warmed up to his tale. His left arm crossed his chest and his hand grip- ped his right arm just below the shoulder. He held his pipe, old and weather beaten as himself, tightly in his right hand, -and be- tween puffs waved it vigorously before him. VVell sir,', he went on, we hadn't seen hide nor hair o' this smuggler for two days: order was to lay low and watch. Here we was, every man aboard as proud as Lucifer of our record and swearin' it shouldn't be broken. Then here was the 'Mist Girl', that's what we called this runner because none of the gov'ment men had ever got a clear look at her, just seen her at times skootin' off way in the distance, or heard reports of her bein, in this place, then in that place, no one seemed to know zacily where she ever was, always as mysterious as night, with a crew o' ruffians no doubt as proud o' her as we was o' the 'White Swal- low'. The morning of the third day broke windy and,-just like this. He indicated the sky with a sweep of his hand. The clouds were now becoming larger and more numerous: the steadily in- creasing wind whistled ominously through the rigging, and the lapping of the water against the side of the ship became loud and noticeable, It was becoming colder. Scurrying clouds flitted swiftly across the 1 75mm T S S S Pio L Y Tl'B!S TTF'C H S face of the sun, causing the boat to be alter- nately in sunlight and in shadow. Scream- ing seagulls sailed across the wind faster than the wind itself. All weather signs fore- told an approaching storm. By noon there was a high sea runnin' and breakin' over the bow right regular, continued Dan. VVe was steamin' along lookin' for a harbor to put into till the squall blowed over when all of a sudden we heard, 'Ship ahoy, to starboardf The cap'n rushed out and looked in the direction the lookout was pointin', then jerked out his glass and looked again. After starin' for a minute, 'cause it was mighty hard to make anything out with spray a flyin' an' dark clouds hangin' low, he shouted, 'Boys, it's the 'Mist Girl'g then rushed in again and signalled the engineer, full speed ahead. Ha , said Dan and he smiled 'at the recollection, I've never seen such an excited crew afore or since. W'e rushed to the rails, hangin' on tight to everything that came handy to keep from gettin' washed overboard and sure enough there was that skootin' black hull, 'but so dim we could hardly make it out. She was just about a half mile away, shoreward of us an hittin' it for the open sea. But we had it on her there. The cap'n edged us out to keep on the seaward side of her. T guess we'd seen the 'Mist Girl' afore she spied us because we crep' up on her a little at first, but pretty ,soon we weren't gainin' an inch on her an' we had full steam on at that. The 'runner' sure lived up to her reputation as a fast one. Well sir, for quite a while we ran nip 'n tuck with her like this. She couldn't edge out for fear of us overhaulin' her and we couldn't gain on her no way. All this time the gale kept blowin' stronger. Loose rope ends whipped like pistol shots: the wind played a tune in the riggin'g the seas swept the deck so it was dangerous to be above, and all the time it kept gettin' worse. Still we hung right on her heels like a bulldog. Then all of a sud- den we heard the cap'n shout, 'Man the guns !' We looked at each other hardly be- lievin' our ears! We thought he must a gone plum crazy! Imagine in a squall like that! the weather so thick you could almost cut it with a knife, the ship on its beams ends half the time, and the wind an' waves sweepin' the deck till you could hardly stand up holdin' on to something! But orders was orders, so out we went to the guns. Well, we managed to load and fire all right but that was about all. Every shot went wild. Nothin' but pure luck would ever cause us to make a hit in those conditions. It wasn't long till the cap'n saw how useless it was. VVe'd only fired a few rounds when we got orders to cease firin'. But we had the gun all loaded, and Tim, that was the chief gunner's name, was just ready to fire. 'Boys', says he, Tm goin' to trust a last shot to luck. That's the only way we'll ever hit her today'. So he waited till we'd reached the crest of a big swell and then let her go. jim Caswell, my pal and best friend, was the first to notice the effect of that lucky shot. He jumped and hollered, 'A hit! a hitl' Sure enough, we'd struck the 'Mist Girl's' foremast about eight foot above deck and it had come down across the bow in a mass of tangled rope and wreckage. But those were poor jim's last words. ,lust at this time when we'd all got a little care- less our bow sank into a wave as high as a mountain and when we'd come out again, him and Tim had gone over. How the rest of us was left on the deck when the bow came up is a mystery to me. An' they didn't have a chance, boys, not a chance. Old Dan's voice grew husky, but he swallowed hard and went on with his narrative. 'fXVe never saw them again and knew it was no use tryin' to save them, they were drowned in a minute. Nothin' but the roar o' the sea answered our shouts. So we turned our attention to the 'Mist Girl' again. The cap'n was quick to see our advant- age and sent orders to the engineer to crowd on every possible pound o' steam. An' the engineer sure did! The boat began to throb an' shake. Every time the stern come out of the water it seemed like the propeller would sure come off. But the cap'n held her right to it and bore straight for the frunner'. VVe had her dead to rights all right. Her foremast and riggin' were hangin' over the side trailin' in the water. This made her list heavily to that side and it looked like every wave would swamp her. An' her crew couldn't clear away the wreckage 'count o' the storm so she was practically unmanageable. VVe were runnin' up on her A' POLY IH' TEQH F 71S fast now. 'Twarn't long till we were within two hundred yards of her with darkness gatherin' fast. Then the cap'n decided it wasn't safe to run any closer in the storm an' darkness, so we hove to, to ride out the night. Now let me tell you it wasn't no pleasure to ride all night that way and watch the 'Mist Girll, but duty was duty, an' pride was pride, so the cap'n decided we should stick. We were with him to a man. VVe'd no more than reached this decis- ion when a rocket went up from the 'run- ner'g then another! She was in distress and we strained our eyes to see what was up, but we couldn't see anything that would cause distress signals. It was our ears that told us the trouble. Faintly through the roar ol water and whine 0' wind we caught the sound o' crackin, and splinterin' tim- bers. Then we guessed it. She'd run into shoal water and was poundin' on a sunken reef. Her crew preferred surrender to death. Then a flare showed up brightly -and in the light we could make out men clingin' above deck-and wavin' at us. But ,twould have meant death to all of us if we'd tried to save 'sm. VVe had a mighty hard time gettin' away ourselves. How we cleared those reefs with the wind, tide and waves forcin' us into 'em I can't tell. We'd slowed down our engines and before we got started again it looked like the rocks for us too. But we pulled away by the barest margin. NVe'd drifted to within one hundred yards of the 'Mist Girl' and just after weld got started on our way to safety and the open sea we witnessed the spectacular end of the 'runner'. She was grindin' on a reef leanin' way over on one side when a giant wave come along and raised her to its crest, then shot her down its side into the trough and to the top of the reef. She struck with a terrific crash that we heard plainly, even through the howlin' gale. She collapsed completely and in a few minutes the sea was covered with a thousand pieces of wreckage that had been the notorious 'Mist Girl,' pride of the smugglers. That's the way the sea snatched away the only prize we ever lost. There was a moment of silence as Dan finished his tale, a moment before the spell- bound group of listening men heard the ap- proaching hum that grew rapidly louder. Dan was the first to see the line on the water that advanced evenly and speedily upon them. Lookl he shouted. The men followed his pointing finger with their eyesg then rose simultaneously and rushed for shelter. The last clatter of running feet had not died away before a roar of falling water swept across the deck. And the Swift sailed on through the lashing fury of an Oregon rainstorm. 72 P IP P6'LY IBI TECH T be Benson Creed DONALD DAY.

Nearly all of the loggers had left the camp and gone into town to enjoy their semi-annual spree. A few of the men had stayed to work, and some of the mar- ried men had had their families come up to the camp to spend the Fourth. The other three fellows who bunked in my tent had gone down the line, leaving me alone. My pull' with the camp cook assured me of access to the kitchen and the contents thereof, at any time of the day. It so hap- pened that on July 4 I consumed a large amount of ice-cream, in addition to the usual round of candied Citron peel and assorted pickles. Before retiring for the night I had hoisted up one side of the tent to encourage venti- lation. After a period of troubled sleep, I arose under the impression that I had some urgent business to attend to down at the powder house. Instead of going out the door, I stepped on my partners vacant bunk and slipped through the side of the tent, under the hoisted canvas and down among the rocks and wild blackberry bushes that grew beside the tent. The berry bushes made cruel impressions on my bare feet, but just then I couldn't waste time on personal comfort. I was going to the powder house. I picked my way carefully through the bushes and over a few fallen logs till I reached the railroad track. Once on the track I headed south to the powder house without regard for the slivers that seemed to be so plentiful on the rough ties. The powder house was a crude little structure built into the side of a steep bank and between two large boulders. It was equipped with a husky door and a large pad- lock which were supposed to prevent the entrance of such persons as myself, but no O' 1 ,IE ' Qt 1' L ll I 'r T S mere contraption of iron or wood was to bar me that night. I looked up at the kindly moon, whose light aided me so much in my work, and thought with satisfaction of the futility of such a contrivance. Looking around on the ground I found an old peavy which had been discarded because of the loss of its hook and a crack in its handle! shov- ing the point of my powerful lever through the shackle of the lock, I proceeded in a more or less business-like manner to twist the padlock completely off its moorings and cast it aside. I pulled the rough door open and stepped inside. By the reflection of the moonbeams on nearby rocks, I saw the cases of dynamite stacked in the small room, and on a small shelf I saw the blasting caps and fuses. It was only a few minutes' work to pull one of the cases of dynamite to the floor, cut off a piece of fuse, insert one end of the fuse in a blasting cap and put the cap inside of one of the sticks of dynamite. This done, I took a deep breath and reached to my hip pocket for a match with which to finish my work. Ye Gods! The pocket wasn't there. I tried to find front pockets. but horror of horrors! I looked at myself and saw to my deep disgust that I had on my pajamas. VVhere were my caulked shoes, tin pants and my flannel shirt? VVhat was I doing in the powder house at this time of night? And above all, why was I navigating outside of the bunkhouse in my pajamas? As I asked myself these questions I regained my sense of reason and the answer came to me: I had been walking in my sleep, and I had nearly blown up the powder house. The next morning the powder monkey reported that the powder house had been broken open and the whole works had been ready to shooti'. The whole camp noticed that I had acquired sore feet in some way, but no one connected the two incidents. 74 v-3-Q.LY FBI TIECH - Radzb Lefteffrom dwarf to Bzrfs and Reply Dear Bitts: As you are a member of the Science Club and not the Radio Club, I wish to ask you for a bit of proantitransubstantiationistical information about my radio set. I have a 5 K.W., double- barrel, seven- passenger, triple-valve, non-skid, Westing- house, out-and-out outfit: complete with U. S. safety appliances CStandardD, and chilled- steel rear axle, which I use in connection wth a hammerless, self-winding, automatic, 16-jewel, nickel-plated, Marconi antenna: with pneumatic tires. Still I have been hav- ing a lot of trouble which I hope you can help me out of. It is a very deep situation I am sure. I can get undamped waves all night with my regenerative vacuum sweeper in Cali- fornia weather, but on Sundays and other business days I find that my variable rheo- stat keeps interfering with the differential so that it is necessary to cut in a small .0042 E. M. F. Wash-Board between the piano and the kitchen sink. Following the advice of an experienced friend of mine I tried cyl- inder records instead of my intermittent shock absorbers on C. VV. As a result my capacity and volume have increased about 81.9 per cent Fahrenheit. This, of course, is a matter of super-hydro-regenerative ac- tivity, and I am sure that you will agree with me that the overload release will work just as well with a mica commutator and a 6 by 6 inch coupler shankg as long as the piston rings are well oiled and I use plenty of sand on the hills. Until recently I used a seven tenor, hard- wood wash boiler amplifier with 240 turns of No. 41.7 barbed wire around the front cover. I found that with this arrangement, the follicles of the heating element had a tendency to become impregnated with the pigment from the valve tappet, so on advice from Eugene V. Debs, I reconsidered the matter and moved the drift slide and sub- stituted a duplex automatic windshield wiper, which allows the left dorsal ulna bone to oscilate between the hydrometer and the upper sling swivel. Will this pre- vent the choke coil from short circuiting the permanent wave length? Also, do you think that by using less chalk and a little High English on the cue ball, I can prevent the pilot beams from overheating and inter- fering with the insulation on the super- heated pipes? I use the non-adjustable, self- reliable hook-up. Any suggestions you might make in re- gard to the above matters will be greatly appreciated. Yours truly, LOUIS AMORT. Dear Louis: In answer.-I am very glad you wrote me because the questions you ask remind me of a famous actor friend of mine, I'm sure you know him,-he played the part of Phillip Manning in The Copperhead , and is now booked to play the part of the Nut in Ben Bolt . If I understand your letter perfectly, you are possessed of the regulation two-horn, four-door, nine-inning, universal lense set, with collapsible seats in the tonneau of the Magnovax, and warranted not to turn sour in Oregon weather. If so, I am afraid noth- ing can be done to relieve your predica- ment: you had better throw the set in Wah- tum Lake before the Oyer-Un-Gon Club does it for you. If, however, I am mistaken, and the ver- miform appendix turns out to be equipped with a Virginia Reel, then the problem be- comes more perplexing. My vast experience enables me to suggest but one solution- wax the tip of the cat-whisker and fit the feline quadruped with a new tail, thereby ending the trouble. Don't worry if the signals come loud one minute and soft the next, for this merely indicates that you are using alternating cur- rent. Also, arenit you too near a football field? Every scrimmage develops a lot of interference, you know. Another sugges- tion-any good hair-dresser will be glad to put a permanent wave in your aerial, al- though some of my lady friends say that a precipitation of hydrogen-oxide from the at- mosphere would have a disastrous effect on the said permanent wave. I hope that my advice may be of some use to you. Your friend, THE EDITOR. i 11Q LY l BLiECH it- P01-Y lBl TREE. - ,fi BASKET BALL' The Benson basketball squad started practice early in December with Coach Craig working hard to build a squad around one letterman. After the shop basketball tournament there was a fairly large turnout for the team. The first squad was not picked until early in January but after it was picked practice began in earnest and the first team rounded into shape. This squad was composed of about fifteen men who were all getting a chance to show their wares at the game. The squad showed up fairly well in its pre-season games by winning six games and losing three in a total of nine games. These games were not all played by the first team, however, because Coach Craig used several Spares in every game that was played. The record of the Pre-Season games: Benson Waverly 23. Benson Waverly 15. Benson Compte-Kolman Co. 8. Benson Northwestern National Bank 6. Benson Pacific Frosh 14. Benson Peninsula Spartans 8. Benson Peninsula Mohawks 23. Benson Peninsula Mohawks 26. Benson Ladd 81 Tilton Bank 39. Commerce Game The Benson-Commerce basketball game was scheduled to be played on Wednesday, February 6, but because of the funeral of Woodrow VVilson on Wednesday, the game was played on the following Friday. The game was played in the VVashington Gym. A large crowd of spectators was on hand long before the time set for the contest, Benson being well represented with both students and faculty members. The game was the third affair of the In- terscholastic League and several stated that it was the hardest fought affair of the three. The game was featured by close checking and several long baskets were shot before the final whistle. After a hard fight the Mechanics came out of the game on the short end of a 15-12 score. The Benson boys had plenty of chances to win the contest but it seemed that the luck was not with them, several shots that seemed certain baskets rolled over the hoop and refused to go in for the two points. The Mechanics also had a chance to win the game on con- verted foul shots, but in seven attempts they missed all of them. ' At the start of the game neither team scored in the first few minutes of play. Soon after this, however, a personal foul was called on a Benson man, and McKeen, of Commerce, converted both free throws put- ting Commerce in the lead by two points. Play then continued and Harris, a Benson forward, shot a field basket from the middle of the floor tying the count. The game then waxed hot and the score was tied 2-2 at the end of the first quarter. The second quarter started and Benson took the lead when Captain Reed sunk a pretty field basket from the side of the floor. The rest of this quarter was a scoreless af- fair, both teams missing several shots at the basket, with Harris and Amato of Benson missing two fouls apiece. The score at the end of the first half stood 6-5, in Benson's favor. At the start of the second period Carl Beaudry of the Stenographers shot a long basket putting them in the lead by one point, but -Iagelski of Benson put his team again in the lead by shooting a long basket. A foul was called on a Benson player for de- laying the game and McKeen of Commerce converted the point, tying the score, and the Stenographers went in the lead four points when Cheney and Beaudry scored field baskets, the third quarter ended with Commerce leading by the score of 12-8. In the first minute playing the last quarter, Callan, Commerce guard, shot a foul, put- ting Commerce in the lead by five points. At this stage of the game Iagelski scored a field basket for Benson and offset the lead to three points, only to have McKeen of Com- merce make a difficult shot. The final bas- ket was annexed by Reed of Benson. The Mechanics lost a hard-fought game, the final score being 15-12. 78 M POLY lBj TECIFTWF Tm FT feferrofz Game After the Benson team had dropped the hard fought game to the Commerce five, Coach Craig put in a strenuous week with his hoopers and they came through with a win over the fast jefferson aggregation by the score of 17-15. The game was the most exciting one played on the Washington floor for a long while: one team would take the lead only to be overcome by a sensa- tional shot by the opposing squad. It was also a very rough affair, a total of twenty personal fouls being called in the entire game. One of the largest crowds of the season was on hand to witness the battle which started promptly at 3:30 o'clock. At the start of the game neither team scored in the first minutes of play, but Brown, the lanky Benson center, broke the ice with a long field basket, followed by a field basket by O'Bryant. Hynd of jeffer- son seemed to get the top off at center and the Benson boys didn't penetrate the jeff defense for a while. Soon after Brownls shot, a foul was called on a Benson man and Captain Flegel converted the shot scoring one point for jeff. jefferson's tall center then dropped in a cripple shot for two points putting jefferson in the lead by one marker: Captain Reed tied the score a minute later by shooting a foul. Play resumed for a while with neither team scoring until Flegel of jefferson sunk a long shot from the mid- dle of the floor. Harris, Benson forward, was then fouled by a jeffersonian inside their goal zone and he converted both foul shots giving Benson two more points. The time keepers were so interested in the game that they forgot to call the quarter and the teams played fourteen minutes before time was called: this made the second quarter very short. jefferson spurted in the second quarter and long shots by Lehto and Hynd gave them a small lead over the Mechanics. Brown then turned in another long shot for Benson followed by a shot by jagelski. jagelski's basket rolled around the rim of the hoop three or four times and then bal- anced on the basket for a time before it finally decided to go in. just before the whistle blew for the ending of the half Lehto of jefferson converted a foul. The first half ended with Benson leading 11-10. The game had been close with each team alternating with the lead. The third quarter was the hardest fought of the entire contest. The only scoring dur- ing this period was a field 'basket by O'Bry- ant of Benson and two converted fouls' by Grayson and Lehto of jeff. At the end of the third quarter the score stood 13-12 in favor of the Mechanics. The last period also proved to be an ex- citing one as each squad exerted itself to the limit to annex the game. just at the start of the quarter, Hynd, the jeff center, shot another shot directly under the basket, putting jefferson in the lead by one tally. The jeffs had worked up a system to beat the Benson position defense and they suc- ceeded in getting the ball by the forwards a few times but that seldom got it by the guards, so Coach Craig's defense has not yet been solved by any squad, that is, so that they can go through it consistently. Following Hynd's field basket, Grayson of jefferson then made another foul shot giv- ing jeff a lead of three points. This lead they held until the last minute and a half of play when Keith of Benson shot a foul and Vesper Brown shot a sensational field basket, followed by another foul shot by Keith, and the final whistle found the Me- chanics in the lead 17-15. The Mechanics showed plenty of improve- ment since the Commerce game and were fighting all the time. It was a glorious vic- tory for the Benson team. -' Fmfzihh Game The Benson basketball team played its third game of the Interscholastic season with the fast Franklin High squad. A large and enthusiastic crowd was on hand early and as the game started they had to be taken off the rafters and warned about touching the ball as it came up on the back board. At the start of the game the play was slow for awhile but when Brown, the Ben- son center, dropped in a field basket, things started to warm up a bit. jagelski shot a basket and converted a foul thus taking the Franklin boys off their feet and they called time out to get organized. The Franklin POLYTjBj CATEQCH M 79 men had several shots at the basket in this period, but they couldn't connect, several shots rolled off but the only score they made the first quarter was a field basket by Scal- lon in the last of the quarter. The first quarter ended 7-2 in favor of Benson. The Franklin fans seemed bewildered as the Quakers were on the short end of the score for a change. A long shot by Captain Reed added two points to the Mechanics, score. At the start of the second quarter Brown of Benson started the scoring by dropping in a long shot and giving the Benson boys a lead of seven points. Franklin, however, was not to be denied and in the next few minutes of play Epps scored a field basket and directly following this shot, Foster, Quaker tall center, made a difficult field basket, these two shots cut the Benson lead down to three points. The game progressed with each team fighting hard and good de- fensive ball being played on both sides. The scoring was not large the rest of the first half a's the only scoring was two converted fouls, one by jagelski and the other by O'Bryant, both of the Benson team. The score at the end of the first half was ll-6 in favor of Benson. The Benson team had played a wonderful game the first half and had a chance to win the game if they played the same brand of ball the second period. At the start of the second half Scallon, flashy Quaker forward, scored a field basket and it looked as if Franklin was out for a fight for the contest. Benson again took 21 five-point lead when Harris shot a field basket. Then the play became close and neither team scored for a few minutes. At this stage of the game Captain Reed of Ben- son turned his ankle badly and time had to be taken out for the injured member to be bandaged. The Franklin boys showed good sportsmanship by allowing the Mechanics some extra time for the injury of Reed. VVhen play resumed Scallon of Franklin scored his third field basket of the game but just at the end of the third quarter the ref- eree called a two-shot foul on a Franklin man and O'Bryant of Benson converted both shots. Benson still held their five- point lead, the score being 15-10. The last period was fast and furious, each team fighting their best to win the game. The first score in the new quarter was a converted foul by Scallon, and his team mate, Epps, ,followed him by converting another one. The Benson team started to hold the ball and drew the Quakers out of their defense and as a result the Mechanics scored three field baskets, cinching the con- test. These were shot by O,Bryant, Brown, and Reed in quick succession. The game was a glorious victory for the Mechanics as it put them in the race for the Championship. Lzhcoffz Game The Benson basketball team proved to the public that they were contenders for the 1924 championship when they eliminated the Lincoln team from the race by defeating them by the score of 22-13 in the fastest and cleanest game played on the Washing- ton court this year. Franklin and Commerce were tied for first place, each winning three games and losing one, while Benson and Lincoln were tied for second with two wins and one de- feat. The win for the Mechanics put them in a tie with Franklin and Commerce. A large crowd was on hand to witness the game and the Benson rooters surely helped the team. A part of the Benson band was on deck and some good music was en- joyed during the halves and quarters of the contest. The Benson faculty was also out in a body pulling their hardest for their team. The game started with a rush with Ben- son taking the ball at the start. After a few minutes of organization the first field bas- ket of the game came when O'Bryant, Ben- son guard, shot a long field basket, play resumed for a few minutes and Davis of the Mechanics sunk a long shot putting Benson in a four-point lead. Lincoln was taking a number of long shots because Benson po- sition could not be penetrated. Lewis of Lincoln made a long basket for his team which was followed by another long shot by Cfllryant of the Tech team. At the end of the first quarter Benson led by the score of 6-2g all the scores so far had been made by the shooting of long field baskets. At the start of the second period O'Bry- ant again scored a field basket, putting Ben- so V if PBLYP IBT 'TECH P P son in the lead by six points, this was fol- lowed by another long basket by Davis. The Benson team seemed to hit the basket like a lot of veterans, they continued to hit the long shots throughout the game. After Davis shot his long basket Brown, the tall Mechanic center, dropped in a difficult side shot which added two more points to the Benson string. Before the close of the first half, O'Bryant scored another field basket as did Davis. The Mechanics had been checking so closely that Lincoln was al- lowed one basket, this coming in the first quarter on a long shotg in the second quar- ter the Railsplitters failed to score a point. This half was the cleanest played in the league for a long while, there was not a foul called on either team this half. At the start of the second half Lincoln took a great spurt and Price, speedly Lin- coln forward, scored two field baskets in rapid succession. Price then was fouled by' a Benson man and he converted one out of the two possible. The play for a while was scoreless, but Spud Lewis of the Rail- splitters shot his second long shot of the game, scoring two more markers for Lin- coln. Benson then started scoring when Harris shot a foul and a little later a field basket. The other few minutes of this quar- ter was scoreless. The score stood Benson 19, Lincoln 9. Again Price of Lincoln started the scor- ing as he dropped in two more field baskets for four more points to be added to his teamls score. The Lincoln team was climb- ing up and rapidly overcoming the Benson lead and the Mechanics were fighting like demons to keep the Lincoln team away from their goal. The next scoring came when Harris of Benson hooped a field basket, the final score came when .lagelski of Benson converted a foul. The Lincoln team scored more points in the second half than Benson, but at that they could not offset the large lead piled up by the Tech squad the first half. Washzhgton Game The Benson-Washington basketball game was played in the Washington gym on the evening of March 7. This was the first eve- ning game for the Mechanics and they didn't show their usual stuff, winning the game by a narrow margin of five points. As a re- sult of the game being played in the evening a large and enthusiastic crowd of Benson rooters was on hand to see the Benson team get the scare of the season. The Washing- ton squad, which had gone through the sea- son without winning a game made up their minds to beat the Mechanics in their last game. The Benson team, which had won three consecutive games up to this date, had been inclined to be a little confident and it was only by putting up a stubborn fight that they finally won the game just before the end of the first half. In the first quarter the Colonials led the Mechanics by a score of 7-2. The Mechanics came back in the sec- ond period and at the end of the half they led 8-7. This lead was not offset by the VVashington team during the rest of the con- test. The scoring was started when Amato of Benson dropped in a field basket after the play had gone a few minutes without scor- ing. The Colonials tied the count a minute later when Capen the Washington forward converted two foul throws. Hill, the Wash- ington center, then proceeded to shoot a field basket, this was followed by another field goal by his team mate Johnson.. Be- fore the end of the first quarter, Lehman of Washington, converted a foul and the score at the quarter stood 7-2 in favor of Wash- ington. In the second period the first score came when Jagelski, diminutive Benson forward, shot a field basket which was followed by Amato's second basket of the evening. O'Bryant, Benson guard, scored the last basket in this quarter when he threw one over his head for a sensational goal. The Benson team had pepped up in this stage of the game and now led the scoring by the tally of 8-7. At the start of the second half Bill Reed scored a field goal and gave the Mechanics a lead of three points over their opponents. Capen of Washington then scored his sec- ond field goal, cutting the Benson lead down to one point, but the Benson boys were not to be kept down and Amato, Benson center, shot a field basket and gave the Mechanics had F FTT i5oiLY FIHI FTFE of-IT gg F ffisi again their three-point lead. The next scor- ing came when Weinel of the Colonials scored a field basket, followed by a basket by Harris of Benson. The scoring of the game came when Captain Reed of Benson shot a field goal and converted a foul throw. The final score was 19-14 and the Mechan- ics were given a hard battle from start to finish. Vesper Brown, the star Benson center, was ill with the grippe and George Amato played center in his place. For Washington, Weinel scored two field baskets and Capen scored one field goal and converted two foul throws each scoring four points for their team. Hill, the lanky VVashington center, also played a good game for the Colonials. Roosevelt Game In the last scheduled game of the season Benson defeated Roosevelt by the score of 34-19 in one of the roughest games of the year. The game was played on the Tuesday preceding the Friday on which it was sched- uled, as several members of both squads wanted to attend the Annual Convention of the Hi Y's at Seaside. The crowd at this game was not as large as at the other games but this did not keep the Mechanics from tying the scoring record of the season, which was madeby Lincoln against Jefferson, they scoredx thirty-four points as did the Mechanics in this game with the Rough Riders. This, however, was not to be the high record as Franklin scored thirty-eight points on Jefferson the next day. To start the game the first score was made by Brown of Benson when he leaped in the air and shot a field goal, the next score was also made by Benson when Len Davis shot a basket. The game became fast and furi- ous at this stage and no more scores were recorded for a few minutes but Captain Reed of the Mechanics broke this lull in scoring by a cripple shot which gave Benson a six- point lead over their adversaries. The first Roosevelt score came when Robertson, a guard, converted a foul throw for one point, the Mechanics again started to score when Brown and Jagelski each shot a field goal. To end the scoring of the first quarter, Cap- tain Hagen of Roosevelt converted a foul and his team mate, Campbell, shot the Rough Riders' first field basket. The score at the end of the first quarter was 10-4 in favor of Benson. To start the second quarter, Keith re- placed Davis for Benson, and started the scoring by dropping in a field basket, this was closely followed by a field goal by Campbell, Teddy forward. Llewllyn, the Rough Rider center, was the next to score when he dropped in a long shot for two points. The Benson scoring came when jagelski went wild and scored two field baskets in this period and Brown and Reed Rough Riders, first field basket. The score at the end of the first half was 16-8 in favor of Benson. At the start of the second half Amato of Benson scored a field goal which was fol- lowed by one of the same brand by Jagelski. The play then became rough and the ball was held most of the next few minutes, the next tally came when Harris, Benson for- ward, sunk a long shot for two more mark- ers for the Mechanics. jagelski then drop- ped another basket and after the ball was tipped off again Referee Goode declared that Jiggs was slugging and banished him from the contest. Llewllyn then converted a foul, giving the Rough Riders a much needed pointy Hagen, Roosevelt guard, fol- lowed this with a field basket only to have Reed of the Mechanics come back and du- plicate his shot. At the end of this period the Mechanics led the scoring by a tally of 26-13. The last quarter was probably the hardest fought of the game. Benson made four field goals with Captain Reed, Harris, Keith and Amato scoring these in quick succes- sion. The Roosevelt scoring in this period came when Campbell converted a foul throw and Robertson and Campbell scored field goals. In the absence of Referee Fabre, Mr. Hu- bert Good ofthe Y. M. C. A. officiated and worked a fine game. Second Benson-Franihoz Game After Franklin had beaten Commerce on the Washington floor they came right back the next evening and won a hard fought af- fair from the Mechanics which decided the 82 POLY championship. This game was played on the Multnomah Club floor and the largest crowd that ever attended a basketball game in the City of Portland was on hand. The gym was filled several minutes before the teams were on the floor. Both teams knew that the game meant the championship and they were determined to win and at the end of the first half it looked as if it was going to be a battle royal, the score at this time stood 12-11 in favor of Franklin. The game in this half was fast and furious with the play the first few minutes scoreless and the game going fast. Seallon, of Franklin, was the first to score when he dropped in two field baskets in quick succession and gave the Quakers a four-point lead. Brown, of Benson, then sunk a long fieldbasket and this was followed by a converted foul by Captain Reed of the Mechanics. The Me- chanics could not usetheir defense as effec- tively as they had been doing as the floor was much wider than that at Washington. Scallon scored another basket for his team and Epps dropped in two and Pope one be- fore the first half ended. For Benson Har- ris shot a long basket and Reed converted two foul throws and a field goal while O'Bryant scored a difficult field basket, making the score at the half 12-11. TFCH lBl e . U At the beginning of the second half the Franklin team started right off and their lead was never cut down by Benson during the rest of the game. The Mechanics were at a loss to cover Scallon, the flashy Quaker forward, whoiwas carrying the brunt of the Franklin attack. The Franklin team scored about three baskets to every Benson score in this period and were making all kinds of shots even some impossible long shots that were difficult for the officials to see, the gym being darker than Washington's. Playing a losing game the Mechanics were also playing their usual fighting game. Franklin seemed to be at home on the large floor and were playing a whirlwind game, much better than they did in the first half. Scallon and Epps were the bright lights for the Quakers. Benson had nothing to be ashamed of in the loss of the game as they had put up a wonderful fight despite the fact that they were handicapped by the large floor. The game scheduled with Commerce to be played the following night was called off because the outcome of this game would have no effect on the championship. So Benson and Commerce finished the season in a tie for second place in the league stand- ings. WRESTLING The first wrestling match of the season was held in the Benson Gym on February 26. The match was between Benson and Franklin. Eight matches featured the pro- gram and after the program was finished Benson had won five and Franklin two, and one was a draw. The Benson team showed excellent coach- ing and stepped to the front right at the start of the matches. Coach Amortls pro- teges won the 175 pound, 145 pound, one 135 pound, and both matches at 118 pounds. In the first match of the card Captain Fallon of Benson won a hard fought match from McCallum of Franklin. Fallon weighed in at 158 pounds, while McCallum weighed 175. The first six minutes McCallum won a well wrestled decision from Fallon. Fal- lon came back and won the match by tak- ing two straight falls from the Quaker. The second match of the matinee was be- tween Tibetts of Benson and Francis of Franklin. This match was fast and furious throughout. It went two six minutes with Tibetts getting a well-earned decision in the first set-to and after the accustomed rest he came back and won a fall from the Franklin man. This bout was one of the most inter- esting of the program, both men trying hard to throw his adversary. The third bout on the bill was between VVilho Beck of Benson and Anderson of Franklin, Beck giving his opponent fourteen pounds in this match. Beck fought hard POLY IBNB 'TECH ' B y EQ NVRESTLERS Top Row: XV. Fallen, Mr. Amort, Leo Beck, Earnest Tuller. Bottom Row: K. Johnson, G. Gillis, XV. 'lleck, G. Lauder. and earned a draw with his much heavier opponent. The first part of the match ended in a draw and the next one resulted in a well-earned decision for Beck. By winning this decision, Beck somewhat tired himself, and Anderson won the next decision. They wrestled twice more with both of these go- ing to a draw so the match was decided a draw. At 135 pounds, Gillis of Benson won two falls from Averill of the Quakers after he had got away to a bad start. In the first six minutes the Franklin bone crusher won a fall from Gillis but the Mechanic was not 84 mg POLY IBI TECH -My Y V to be daunted as he came back and threw Averill twice straight for the decision in this match. Captain Fallon was not satisfied with one victory so he wrestled in his own weight against Smith of Franklin. The first six minutes they wrestled a fast draw. Fallon seemed somewhat tired from the first block of his match with the heavier opponent in the 175-pound bout. He came back and won two falls after a short rest. Fallon showed real class after Smith had wrestled even with him in the first block of the match. Benson's first defeat came when Woods of the Quakers won from Tuller of the Me- chanics. Woods took the first setto by throwing Tuller in short order. Tuller, not to be daunted, came back and extended. him- self and won a decision from the Franklin man. In the last block of the match VVoods of Franklin won another fall from the Ben- son man. These men wrestled in the 125- pound class. Vanderfleet of Franklin won from VVilkes of Benson when they had wrestled one drawf the Franklin boy winning a fall. In the third trialgWilkes, the Benson man, hurt a cord in his back and wasnft able to move so the match had to be forfeited to Franklin. In the last match Andy Larsen of Benson took two straight falls from Ross of Frank- lin. Larsen showed plenty of class and fin- ished his man in short order, both falls com- ing in a short time. Coach Amort's men performed in fine style. Bens0n-Franilzh Wreslfzhg Cfzczmpiomfzm The interscholastic wrestling champion- ship was settled in the Franklin gymnasium, Benson and Franklin being the contestants. The Mechanic Bone Crushers previously de- feated the Quakers, but on the champion- ship occasion they met defeat by the score of four to three. The matches were the best seen in the history of interscholastic wrest- ling and the large crowd that attended the bouts completely satisfied with the ver- dicts that Carl Freilinger handed out. The first few matches were hotly contested with the competitors fighting hard for the fall or decision: at the end of the sixth bout the score stood even with each team having won three bouts. The next bout was the heavyweight match which involved Lauder of Benson and McCallum of Franklin. After some of the most thrilling amateur wrestling ever witnessed in the city the referee awarded the Quaker man the decision and with this went the 1924 title that was at stake. The first match of the evening was be- tween Kenny johnson of Benson and Van- der Vaught of Franklin. This was John- son's first match of the season and he wres- tled like a veteran, winning the match with little difficulty. This match was at 118 pounds. The next affair found Willio Beck, the popular Benson 125 pounder, facing Averill of the Quaker squadg this was one of the features of the evening and it was not until the last moments of the bout that the offi- cial was able to award the match to Beck. In the 125-pound class Benson had an- other entry which was Tuller, who was pit- ted against Vlfoods of Franklin. Tuller made a brilliant showing despite the fact that he lost the match. This was the first bout that Benson had lost so far. The second defeat for the Mechanics came when Gillis of the Mechanics lost a hard tus- sle to Anderson of Franklin. This is Gillis' first year on the squad and he gave a good account of himself in every match that he entered. Red Tibbets, the Benson Flame, lost his match to Anderson of the Quakers at the weight of 135 pounds. Red had to train pretty hard to make the weight in order to wrestle Anderson and was weakened, but still he thrilled the crowd several times and went down fighting. Captain Fallen, the Benson 150-pound star, won the next set-to from Fracis of Franklin. Fallen is one of the best wres- tlers in his division in the city and he had no trouble in downing his Quaker opponent. The last and deciding bout was between Lauder and McCallum with McCallum win- ning after several minutes of hard fought wrestling. Wi THR A MTFPOLY IBI TFCH 35 4 - SOCCER Roosevelt Game In the first league soccer game of the 1924 season Benson won a decisive victory over the squad representing Roosevelt by the score of 4-0. The game being a new one in the league was slow at first but warmed up as the game progressed. The contest was played on the Benson field with Coach Dry- nan of the Mechanics officiating. The game went along for a few minutes without any scoring, each team being con- tent with feeling the other squad out. The scoring began when the forward line of the Mechanics started a great rush at their op- ponents' goal and the first goal of the game was scored when Baker of the Mechanics kicked one. The Rough Riders made sev- eral attempts to tie the score in the first period but could not get through the stub- born defense put up by Benson. Before the first half was ended Vance Huntley of Ben- son scored the second goal when he dashed down the field and placed a beautiful kick through the goal posts. ln the second half the Mechanics again scored two goals while Roosevelt could do no better in the way of scoring than they did in the first period. The scoring was started in the second half when Don Vlfads- worth scored a goal after much toiling with the ball. The play then became pretty stiff with each team playing hard and several players getting kicked in the shins and head. The final goal came for Benson when Huntley scored his second goal of the game. Huntley had been playing a fine game and both of his goals came from kicks which were well placed. Freznifzh Game The first soccer game between the Me- chanics and the Quakers ended in a score- less tie on the Franklin field and a return game was played on the Benson field. After a grueling game the Benson kickers emerged victors by a lone score registered in the first period by Fuller, a Mechanic forward. The Benson forward again performed well, as they did in the contest with Roose- veltl they made continual rushes at the op- ponentis goal but the Franklin defense held and they could not get through for a score. Several new men appeared in the line-up of the Benson squad and they showed up well, all playing a wonderful game. Dry- nan at goal was one of these and Tuller as outside left man. Isaacs and Putio played good ball for the Quakers. By virtue of this win the Me- chanics won the 1924 soccer championship and will receive a cup in the near future. Coach Drynan is to be given much credit for the team that he turned out considering that the game was new to the school. Three teams were entered in the league this year and next year the league is ex- pected to be filled up and the game will be a fast one.

VVith these lettermen and the other new men that composed the team they fared fairly well in their pre-season games. In the first game of the season the squad was not in shape, due to the fact that sev- eral first string men were still playing bas- ketball and as a result they dropped the first game to the Vancouver High School by the the score of 6-5. Benson led up to the ninth score of 10-9. After holding a six-run lead for six in- nings they eased up a bit and the Vancou- verites won in the end. A return game was played in Portland the following week and the Mechanics this time won the game by inning by the score of five to two, but in the first part of the ninth Vancouver scored three runs and the score was then tied, but Benson won the game in their part of the ninth canto when Blatter tripled and scored on McCulloch's single into left field. The next games were a series of two con- tests with the Qregon Institute of Tech- nology in which the Mechanics won the first game by the score of 6-5 and walked away with the second game by the score of 13-4. In the first contest the ground was soaked and the game was played on a gravel field with large boulders scattered over it. This gave each team a disadvant- age, but in the second game the Mechanics stepped out and showed the boys that they were not slouches with the stick and gar- nered thirteen runs in the nine innings played. The next pre-season affair was played with the squad from Reed College and the Benson boys managed to make three runs while the Collegians were getting one. This game was only three innings long because of the fact that the Reed team was late in arriving on the battle field. The big game was played when the Me- chanics journeyed to Mt. Angel to play the Mt. Angel College squad. The college boys had a fast team. The Benson team played stellar ball against them, but the fast col- lege team was able to win the game in the late innings by the score of 4-3. The Ben- son boys garnered only two hits off the College pitchers, but made everything count and with the aid of several squeeze plays scored their three tallies. The last game before the season opened was played with the Northwestern National Bank in which the Mechanics won an easy victory by the score of 10-1. The game was played at Sellwood Park and the Mechanics had a chance to play on a solid grass dia- mond. Roosevelt Game The first baseball game for Benson in the Interscholastic League ended in a well- earned victory for the Mechanics over the Roosevelt nine. The game was played, as usual, on Mulnomah field and the crowd was not what was expected because of the threatening rain which drizzled through the entire game. The Benson team, which won the 1923 championship, was one of the best hitting high school teams that has ev.er been organ- ized and as the hitters of last seasonis squad have graduated the squad this year is a lit- tle weak in the stick department. However, the Mechanics have a very smooth fielding team. The Mechanic stickers garnered only five hits off the delivery of Moore, the Rough Rider pitcher. These five hits were turned into three runs and I-Iuehner, the Benson twirler, went a little better and allowed the Roosevelt boys but three hits and no runs. Huebner pitched a fine game and was in danger only twice in the game and in both cases .pulled out of these holes by masterly pitching. In the first inning Roosevelt started out with a hit and got a man as far as third base but Huebner tightened up and struck out the last man, the Benson boys took a chance at the bat, but they went out in order E T' LPOLY H21 TECH TT T339 and the Roosevelt pitcher struck out the first two men to face him and made the third one pop an easy fly to the infield. In the second inning it was the Rough Riders, turn to go out in one, two, three or- der when Huebner fielded three ground balls in front of the plate and threw all three of the runners out at first base. The Mechanics in their half of the second canto scored two runs on two hits and an error. Blatter started things off by hitting a two- base hit into the tennis courts, this was followed by a grounder by Harris, which the Roosevelt third sacker threw into right field trying to get Blatter off second base. As a result Blatter perched on third and Harris on second. Huebner then came up and singled into center field scoring Blatter and Harris. . Moore started off the fourth inning for the Rough Riders by hitting a hard line drive which Amato knocked down and Har- ris recovered only to throw wild to first, letting Moore go to second on the play. Huebner tightened up and struck out two men and made the last one pop an easy fly to Blatter in center field. The Mechanics failed to solve the delivery of Moore this inning and despite the fact that Blatter con- nected for his second hit they could not score. In the sixth frame, with a man on base, Brown of the Rough Riders hit a Texas Leaguer over second base and Harris recov- ered it and threw to Amato at third to get the runner that was on first, but it was too late so Amato threw to first to get Brown, who was just rounding the base, and the throw was again beateng the Rough Rider that was on third tried to score on this but was thrown out at the plate, McCulloch to Lacey. In the seventh inning the Mechanics scored their last run when Harris doubled down the third base line and stole second: he scored when Huebner hit one in front of the plate and the Roosevelt catcher heaved it into right field. On this play Huebner went to second base but the Mechanics were blanked and they failed to score any more runs. L The stars were Blatter and Huebner for Benson and Moore and Schultz for the Roosevelt team. Huebner and Moore waged a pitchers' duel with Huebner walking the only man in the game and striking out eleven, while Moore struck out twelve Me- chanics. Lzhcoln Game The second baseball game of the 1924 season for Benson proved to be what one of the daily papers called a Comedy of Er- rors, the Benson squad making a total of fifteen while the Railsplitters faired a little better with their quota of twelve. This was said to be a record of errors in the Inter- scholastic League. In spite of the fact that they made fifteen miscues the Mechanics garnered eighteen hits off the delivery of three Lincoln pitch- ers for a total of seventeen runs, while the Lincolnites pounded out five hits off the de- livery of Huebner and scored six times. Lincoln got two runs in the first two cantos and held the Mechanics scoreless, which looked bad for the Benson boys, but in the third frame the Benson bats came off the shoulders of the hitters and after the dust had cleared away the Mechanics had six markers stowed away safely in the offi- cial scorer's book. Dixon, the first man up, hit a line drive to left field that was good for a single. Harris followed with a single to the shortstop: Blatter then came through with a base blow and Dixon crossed the platter. Harris was the next to score when Huebner hit one to the infield and was thrown out at first base, but this did not end the rally as Jagelski singled over third base, scoring Blatter, McCulloch followed this with a single to right field and Amato singled, filling the sacks. jagelski then scored when Marks threw a wild heave, Bill Reed hit a hard drive' at the Lincoln third-sacker which he proceeded to boot and McCulloch scampered across the plate. Na- kanno and Dixon struck out, ending the inning. In the fifth canto Benson scored four more runs on three singles and three Rail- splitter errors and Earl McCulloch's triple to right field. The Mechanics were taking a good lead in spite of the fact they ,could not get their hands on the ball. They were 50iiii iiii ii i13oL'Y yBj TECH BASEBALL Top Row: McCulloch, first haseg Groridahl, coachg Downs, managerg Forsgren, outfielder.

Eddie Marks, the Lincoln twirler, gave away to Tichnor in the seventh inning after he had been pounded for thirteen runs and as many hits. The Benson catchers seemed as if they couldn't hang on to the apple and every time a Lincoln man got on the bags he could steal at will and usually came home on a passed ball. Huebner, the Benson pitcher, twirled a fine game as usual.

Coach Grondahal of the Mechanics changed his entire team in the last inningg he took every one from the game but Hueb- -ner and Lacey and put in the fellows that deserved a chance to show their stuff in a league contest. They didn't have. much of a chance to show their wares, however, be- cause Huebner struck out the first two and the next man bounced an easy one to him, which he threw to first, retiring the runner. 65 c FPOLCYFTBTTEFCH gi gg is For Benson, Blatter starred at the bat, getting five hits in six trips to the plate, while jagelski hit four out of five tries. McCulloch hit a long triple in the fifth in- ning for the Mechanics and added to the total of scores. Carl Barber played a nice game behind the bat for Lincoln as did Story on second base. Fmmilm Game Benson won its third start in the baseball league by virtue of an 8-6 win over the fast Franklin nine in one of the hardest fought contests on Multnomah Field this season. The scoring started in the second inning when Franklin made two runs on Pflaum's hit to Dixon and then Epps tripled to deep right field scoring Pflaum. Douglas, the double into the left field tennis courts which scored Epps with the second run of the canto. To end this inning Gardener grounded out to Dixon and Hudson struck out. In the fourth inning with two men out, the Mechanics had one run when Harris was safe on an error, advanced to third on Huebner's single and scored when Dixon hit safely in left field. Hudson was pitching easily and seemed to have the Benson hit- ters at his mercy. In their half of the fifth canto the Me- chanics staged a large rally and scored five runs on five hits, an error, and a fielder's choice. The first man up struck out, but Ray Reed singled to lef field which was followed by Olson's single to the left field fence, this put Reed on second and left Olson on first. Blatter then singled over short, filling the bases, but Jagelski forced Ray Reed at the plate. Harris singled to the shortstop, scor- ing Olson, and the rest of the damage was committed when Huebner and Dixon both singled. Benson seemed to be hitting in the pinches as they earned all their runs after two men were out. Dixon, the first hitter in the eighth frame for the Mechanics doubled into the left field tennis courts and Amato advanced him to third and was safe at first himself when he beat out a pretty bunt down the third base line. McCulloch flied to center field, but Ray Reed again came through with a scorching single to right field that scored Dixon and advanced Amato to third base. Amato scored on Ulsen's infield hit which forced Reed at second base. Blatter struck out and ended the inning. Commerce Game The Benson baseball squad took the lead in the Interscholastic League when they scored their fourth win of the 1924 season by defeating the Commerce squad 9-3 on Multnomah Field. Huebner, the Benson flinger, started on the mound and pitched six innings and was still going strong but Coach Grandahl de- cided to save him for further use if neces- sary. Blatter then took up the mound duty where Huebner left off and twirled fine ball the rest of the contest. Levoff, the Com- merce star right-hander, started the game Benson scored twice in the first inning. After the first man up struck out Jagelski singled over third base and this was fol- lowed by another strike out after which Huebner came through with a three-base clout to right center scoring Jagelski with the first run of the game. Harris then sin- gled, scoring Huebner. Harris was caught off first base, ending the inning. The next scoring came in the third frame when the Benson bats again started waving. After the dust cleared they had three more runs in the score book which they had earned. Olson, the first man up, singled, but was forced at second by Blatter, who succeeded in beating the ball to first base. Jagelski flied to the catcher and Dixon drew a base on balls. Huebner then got in front of pitcher and was hit: this filled the bases. Blatter scored on a passed ball by the Com- merce receiver and Dixon and Huebner scored when Callan threw Harris, grounder into the stands. Benson scored one run in the fifth and sixth innings respectively when Dixon was hit by a pitched ball, McCulloch's walk and Harris' single: in the sixth, Blatter, the first man up, tripled and scored when the Com- merce thirdsacker booted the throw from the outfield. To finish the Benson scoring they con- nected for two scores in the seventh frame 5 IPOIIJY NBL -TECHIT TT 03 when Huebner and Harris singled, advanced a base each on an error and scored on Ama- to's double down the third base line. Commerce scored three unearned runs in their half of the eighth inning when the Benson infield went to pieces for a few min- utes and executed several wild throws en- abling the Stenographers to score. Warhzhgton Game Benson won its fifth straight baseball game by deating the VVashington squad by the overwhelming score of 12-6. The game started at four-thirty on account of the long school hours at Vllashington and this late start was said to be the cause of the small attendance. Benson scored three times in the third inning when Blatter was safe on an error and after two outs were made and Dixon on first base Heubner and Dixon were safe on the shortstop's error, Harris then doubled, scoring Dixon and advancing Huebner to third. At this sage Amato singled to center, scoring Huebner and Harris, but was thrown out at second on the throw in. The fireworks again started in the fourth when McCulloch beat out a bunt down the third base line and Glson was hit by a pitched ball. R. Reed doubled, scoring Mc- Culloch and Olson going to third. Olson scored when Cloyes dropped a throw to catch Reed off second. Blatter and jagel- ski went out but Dixon singled, scoring Reed. Huebner forced Dixon for the final out. - In the seventh Washington got two runsg Johnson walked and after Gabriel flied to Glson, Spencer tripled into right field, scor- ing Johnson. Pearson beatout an infield hit and scored Spencer but the other two were easy outs. In the Benson part of the seventh Dixon beat out a hit to Cloyes and went to second on the latter's bad throw to first. Huebner tripled to left center scoring Dixon and Harris followed with a single scoring lluebner. Amato doubled into the tennis courts, putting Harris on third and Mc- Culloch tripled, scoring both Harris and Amato, Vvashington changed pitchers and the rally was over. Washington scored in the eighth on three hits, a passed ball and an infield out, John- son, Gabriel and Weinel contributing the hits. Benson also scored in the eighth when Dixon walked and went to second on Huebner's sacrifice. Harris was safe when Weinel dropped his fly and Dixon scored on this play. Amato was then hit by a pitched ball and McCulloch singled, scoring Harris. McCulloch went to second on the throw in but was caught off a second later. f e bryan Game The final game of the season was played Thursday, May 29, at the Columbia Uni- versity grounds. The team defeated jeffer- son, 12 to 9, and thereby won the champion- ship of the league. The game was a hit and run proposition and Benson did most of this. Both teams made many errors and the large amount of runs made were due to this. Bension started scoring in the first inning. Blatter, first man up singled to center field. Harris flied to left field and Amato, the next man up, was hit by the pitcherg this threw Jeff pitcher off his stride and two wild pitches followed, resulting in Blatter and Amato scoring. p Jefferson came right back and scored once as the result of Parker's walk and Marritt's single. In the third inning Jefferson came back strong, Parker, lead-off man walked, Nelson was hit by the pitcher, both men scored on Robinsons double. Eoff singled, scoring Robinson, and VVetzel singled, scoring Eoff. VVetzel scored on McCullock's muff of Gray- son's grounder. Benson added two more in the sixth in- ning on Dixon's walk and Jagelski's single. In the lucky seventh, neither team scored but the eighth inning proved to be the downfall of Jefferson. Benson scored eight runs in this inning, the team batting around once. Jefferson came back with two runs in the eighth inning and one in the ninth, but the lead piled up by Benson was too great for them to overcome. Batteries: Benson, Huebner and Reed, Jefferson, Ashby, Eoff and Wetzel. iLiY I W W T EYC Hi! J, , TRACK TEAM '11 5 . oi CL' C 2 . Us IZ S!

VVith but one man back from last year's team Coach Craig showed his real worth by developing a good team out of a squad of new men. The first event of the season was the shop track tournament. A total of about three hundred entries was handed in and this meet gave the coach a good line on the men in school eligible for track. Practically all of the team was picked from the entries in the tournament. The outstanding men in the meet were Cox, who was high point man of the meetg Grant, VValsh, OyBrient and Joerg. Cross Country Team The cross-country team proved to be the best one ever to represent Benson. The team was composed of Gilmore, Davies, Beck, Morton, Deitrick, Green, Lunsford, Cromwell, Drynan and Friese. Not con- sidered a possible chance in the annual in- ter-scholastic cross country the team sur- prised its followers by coming in a close sec- ond to VVashington High which placed first. The team easily defeated jefferson who came in a poor fourth. Credit is due to the team for the wonderful showing they put up. Refay Carnival The relay carnival was the next event of the season and all attention was given to developing a winning team. An invitational meet was held on the Ben- son track and the participants were Reed, jefferson, Columbia, Roosevelt, Lincoln and Benson. Reed college was first with 23 points, Jefferson 16 points, Columbia 9 points, Benson 6 points, Roosevelt 4 points, 95 FF if Ti P0137 TBI FTECH if TF FF and Lincoln last with one point. Although the team did not win the meet it gave an opportunity to see the team in action and the coach a chance to correct the weaknesses of the team. The annual relay carnivalpwas held in May at Multnomah Field. The Jefferson High team won the meet with ease, break- ing the former relay records in every event they won. Benson placed fourth in the senior events and tied for third in the junior events. The team was then ready to start hard work in preparation for the final and biggest event of the season, the inter-scholastic track meet. ln order to get a line on the men a total of four meets was held before the inter- scholastic meet. Benson defeated Columbia on its own track 5215-51521. The meet was thrilling throughout and not until the last event was run off could it be decided who would win. The team then journeyed to Columbia's track and engaged in another-thrilling meet but Columbia turned the tables on Benson and defeated them 59-54. Commerce, Lincoln, and Benson held a dual meet and Benson flashed to the front by winning with 48 points: Commerce was second with 34 points and Lincoln last with 21 points. The last meet before the inter-scholastic was held on the Benson track between Franklin and Benson. The meet was hotly contested and Benson finally won out 59-51. Fresfmmfz Team The Freshman team was the best ever turned out in Benson. The coach used the same method in selecting this team as used in selecting the first team. A freshman shop meet was held and was won by the plumb- ing shop. The team was then selected and a dual meet was staged with the Washing- ton freshmen, Benson winning, 76-32. The first 'freshmen interscholastic meet was held on the Benson track and was won by the Franklin freshmen. The Franklin freshmen nosed out Benson 40M-39. Roland Renfro starred for Franklin and Haggren for Benson. The outlook for next year's team is very good. Several of this year's team will be back and the freshman team will be ready for the first team. VVith this material a good team should be developed. Inter-Scfzolasfzk V Meet The meet was held on May 22 and 23 this season. Jefferson high school with one of the best high school teams ever turned out in Portland high school circles easily won the meet by piling up a total of 6614 points, the largest amount ever made by any high school. The other schools finished as follows: Franklin 34W, VVashington 321A, Benson IOM, Commerce SJW, Roosevelt 1 and Lincoln 14. Benson's point men were Dietrick, third in the 440 yard dash, Grant, second in the low hurdles, Joerg, 'second in the broad jumpg Cox, fourth in the javelin. Durst tied for fourth in the high jump and the re- lay team which placed fourth. The business end of the team was handled by Manager Charles Cantine and Assistant Manager VVhite. The team was furnished with plenty of competition during the sea- son and not one track suit was lost through carelessness. Mr. Brace assisted Coach Craig during the entire season and deserves due credit for his work. POLY I l TECH 17 GOLF Bottom Row: Bill Reed, Robert Olson, Loty Glivinsky. Top Row: Ted Westling, Verne Perry, Mr. Messing, Faculty Advisorg Earl Chalfan, Jack Lacey, Manager 58 L LLPCOLY V131 TECH C GOLF The past golf season was successful from all standpoints. The team was fighting all the time for victory and gave the best they had in them. The Benson team was selected by holding a shop tournament. Nearly all the shops entered teams and plenty of competition was offered. The Machine shop, which was made up of the following players, V. Perry, Gilvinski, Morgan, Reed and Durst, won the tournament after defeating every other team entered. They were presented with a pennant from the student body in token of their efforts. Coach Henselman then issued a call for players and about thirty-two golfers re- sponded. A school championship was held and entries were eliminated down to Perry and Gilvinski. These two players played one of the hardest matches seen on the East- moreland golf links for a long time. Gil- vinski led the field for the first ten holes, but Perry, playing a steadier game, over- came the lead and won the match one up. The team was finally selected out of the showing of the players in the tournament. The lucky men were as follows: Reed, Gil- vinski, Chalfan, Westling, Glson, and Cap- tain Perry. Manager Lacey and Mr. Messing secured reduced rates for the usage of the links. The team practised under the guidance of Coach Henselman and were finally ready to play. The league schedule was drawn up and Benson had the hard luck of picking Lin- coln as its first match. The Lincoln team, considered the strongest team in the league, defeated the Mechanics after a hard strug- gle. The best match of the afternoon was the one between Perry of Benson and Reimer of Lincoln. Perry won the match one up but this could not stop the playing of the other members of the Lincoln team and Benson lost the team match, 7-5. The team braced up and easily defeated Commerce 9-2, the following week. Wash- ington was taken into camp next, 5-4 and on the following week Jefferson was defeated, 9-2 Lincoln High won the title and the Ben- son team came out second. The players put up a fine game throughout the season and deserve praise for their work. Man- ager Lacey also deserves credit for his good work. Mr. Messing, as adviser of the team, arranged matters so that the team received all the equipment they needed. EQ LY TBl TEC Ii P OLYiIBW TEQH N - s tl 0 R SHOPS IUZ POLY TFCH J Iibzmzfry The Foundry never lacks students at any time as every Technical student entering the school is required to take a term as a foundryman. Every three or four weeks the students with the help of the instructors run off real heats in the cupola. Pratically all the molds are made by the freshmen ex- cept the most difficult ones which are made by the majoring students. Here, as in all the shops in the school, real work is done and up-to-date machines and methods are used. The average amount of iron melted in one heat runs about 22000 pounds: several castings have been made weighing as much as 800 pounds. A regular series of exercise molds are made by the debutante in the shop before he may do any larger or difficult work. The presentation of the students with an alumi- num B, for a watch fob, upon the completion of his fifth exercise has speeded up the boys materially. XYhile part of the students do ordinary green sand molding, some work on small molding and others learn core-making. Dy changing about, the students get a good working idea of the foundryman's trade. Almost daily, copper, brass and alumi- num are melted in the two gas furnaces for small molds that do not require much metal. The metal is melted in graphide crucibles that can be handled quite easily. Une day of each week is reserved for lec- ture and study, so when he goes from this shop he is not all brawn and no brains. The student i11 the foundry learns composition of metals, melting of metals, treatment and making of alloys, and mold- ing. No matter what trade he later follows, information on this order will be invaluable to him. th C J l .4 POLY IBT irL'en1Ti T i T103 Pfhoff Working There has been a heavier enrollment of new students in the XVoodworking shop this term than in the past, and a great va- riety of fine work has been turned out. The newer students in cabinet making have completed several fine tables, tabou- rets,footstools and other small exercises that give them the idea of the construction of joints and of the art of finishing. The first termers in the shop are not permitted to use the machines until they become more experienced. This shop has a variety of up-to-date ma- chines, among them being the circular saw, a 24-inch lathe, a planer, two bandsaws, a jointer, a mortise, and ten highspeed lathes. The Tech Pattern-makers seem to have taken an unusual interest in their work this term, as they have progressed faster than the preceding classes. A series of tests has kept them well up in the knowledge of the tools and material with which they work. The Vocational Pattern-makers follow the same line of work as the Techs, but their advancement is much faster as they spend twice as much time in the shop. The ad- vanced pattern-makers have completed sev- eral difficult patterns thus gaining a prac- tical education in the work. Cabinet making and carpentry worked together in the making of several useful pieces for the school. A trophy case of solid oak was built for the student body. All the cups and other awards won by this school are displayed in it. A lecture table was built for the Electrical Theory classes: a stand to mount machines for the three wire balancer set and thirteen axle stands for the Gas Engine shop are some of the biggest orders completed. 132- s -- as .. s. PQ LX. lBl TECH -ss s s. -s as .. BIczc'kymz'z'6 Primitive as the name blacksmith may sound, we cannot deny that this is one of the most essential shops in the school. The training the boys receive here will benefit them in almost any line of work they may decide to take up. The necessity of this course is shown by the fact that all tech- nical, gas-engine and machine students are required to have one term in the blacksmith shop before their graduation. All students entering this shop are re- quired to finish a set of elementary exercises which consists of drawing out a piece of round metal to square, octagon, hexagon and round, welding a link, and the shaping of brackets, gate hook and chain hook. He then makes the different lathe tools. XVhen he has finished the exercises and has become sufficiently skillful in the blacksmiths art, he is allowed to make vari- ous tools, such as, cold chisels, caping tools and hammers for this shop and also the ma- chine shop. He may make tools for himself if he buys the stock. The tempering of these tools requires great care and skill, this being the most important operation in the making of tools. Most of the tools used in this shop and all lathe tools, scrapers and chisels used in the machine shop, and various other tools for the other shops are made here by the major students. These older students have made many decorative, as well as useful, pieces that can almost be called works of art. The theoretical side of the blacksmitlrs trade is taught in the classroom once a week so that the student may learn something of the different kinds of iron and coke, work- ing temperatures, the tools used, and the laying out of difficult work. secs?

K, of the shop inspector first ancl then of the instructor anal must be up to the requirements of first class work. lfrom the first exercise of chipping anfl filing to the aclvancecl yvork, the students are remluirerl to be accurate in all things. This extreme care is usecl in this shop because accuracy is the yvatchyvord of every genu- ine machinist. To give him a better uncler- stancling of the work the first termer in this shop is given lectures twice a week. ln his first year he learns to chip and file, to scrape bearings, to grind tools and to op- erate a clrill press, lathe and shaper. After finishing the exercises on all these machines he starts in on regular job work, the same as is clone in an orclinary machine shop. Nkhen he has clone almost every kincl of ma- chine work, he can then enter upon the tool- makers' course if he so clesires. The more important and exacting jobs such as the making of tools, gear cutters, gages, etc., are clone by the more skilful stu- clents taking the aclvancefl course in tool- making. .X great many orclers have been completecl by this shop this term, some of the most im- portant being parts for the bearing tester in the Science Department, new bench lathes for the yvoodyvorking shop, bench vises, tools, gasket cutters for the Manual Train- ing Department, auto parts for the Gas lin- gine Shop, and a gang clrill press. Also the pumps and machinery in the boiler room were repaired. 106 1 - POLY lBl TECH V .Efecfric The Electrical course requires much hard study. Besides the regular four terms of science and two terms of chemistry taught here, the Electric student must take two extra terms of Electric Theory. lVithout this extra study, the student would be lost when he came to the winding of motors and armatures and the study of motors, starting devices, and wiring. This shop consists of several departments devoted to the different phases of electrical work. Full size frames of houses and rooms are used in the study of house wiring of the most advanced type. In this work the city code is followed rigidly. The controller department requires much study of all types of manual and automatic starting and control of electric motors. In this work he must hook up his controllers according to his own diagrams after check- ing by an instructor. The armature and motor winding depart- ment occupies the labors of the more ad- vanced students. This winding is done from formulas given to the students. From them a diagram is worked out and the winding is done by following the diagram. The machine department is for the voca- tional students who haven't had the term of machine shop that the teclmicals have had. As a great deal of machine shop work has to be done by an electrician, this depart- ment has been installed in this shop. All lathe, shaper, drill press and milling ma- chine work may be done here, although it has not nearly the equipment of the regular school machine shop. Upon his entrance into this shop, the future electrician takes up all the forms of splicing, simple conduit exercises, and the connecting of bells and lights with different systems of control. , -v pMP0LY QBI TECH jpg 1Qi Gas Engine VVhere your treasure is there will your heart be.', This biblical phrase applies also to those taking the gas engine course. In order to be best adapted for this work, an interest must be taken in all its phases. The greasy and dirty work received at the beginning of the course should be mastered with as much zeal as the theoretical Work received in the last year. During the evolution of a student in gas engine he receives a practical knowledge of the operation, theory and repair of all parts of the automobile. The first year of the course the student is put to work acquainting himself with the tearing down, adjusting and assembling of the front and rear Wheels, axles, differentials and steering gear. He also learns how to reline and adjust brakes. As he advances, the work becomes more interesting. In the second year of the course the student is required to tear down motors, put in the new parts which are necessary, scrape and adjust the bearings, assemble the motor and then grind and adjust the valves. The student is also given a thor- ough training in the operation and adjust- ment of many different makes of carbu- retors. The last year of the course is spent in the ignition department, where the principles of operation of coils, magnetos, generators and other electrical equipment are learned. Much practical experience is given the stu- dent in this year by outside work. Lectures are given once each week and examinations are held regularly to keep the boys up on the theoretical side of the work. During the second year the boys have the Fordson and Cleveland tractors at their dis- posal while the boys in their last year have the huge 410 H. P. 12 Cyl. Liberty aero- plane motor to experiment with. 1QL-----.- at --PQ.1fYMI.BQ.H. - aaa Sheet Meta! Sheet Metal is a trade that has sprung into prominence only during the last decade, due especially to the automobile industry. The rapid growth of this industry has drawn many men into the body-making plants and this has created a demand for skilled workers in this line. The first thing the would-be sheet metal worker tackles is soldering. Later he learns to make bowls, fittings, and pipes. As he progresses, he makes offset fittings of all kinds and learns sheet metal drawing. Af- ter sufficient time to become skilful, which generally takes until his fourth or fifth term, he does general repair work of all kinds, some of which is difficult. This work con- sists mainly of roof fittings, elbows, venti- lating systems, auto fenders and bodies. Much time is spent on sheet metal draw- ing, lecture and written work as sheet metal work requires much figuring and planning. The drawings are first made on paper. Then the patterns are laid out on the metal: the metal is then cut out, bent and formed by hand or machines and soldered together. Oxy-acetylene welding and cutting are taught in this shop. The welding apparatus has proven its value several times in service rendered to the school. Once a linotype and again a press in the printing shop broke down. In both cases valuable castings were broken but both pieces were welded here. This saved considerable delay and expense as new parts could be obtained only in Chicago. Many articles around the school have been made in this shop and several jobs have been turned out lately. A first aid kit was made for the student body to use at athletic meets. A peanut roaster was made for the school candy stand. Many slip- jackets were made for the foundry and five covers for pots and roasters were made for the Cafeteria. 1 A e -BQLY lBl .TECH ent- at .192 - Plumbing Plumbing is studied in full scale in this shop, there being several floor levels here as in a modern house in which all the phases of modern Sanitary Engineering are worked and studied out. The student must know the tools, pipe- fittings, pipe cutting and threading, joint calking, soldering, and joint wiping thor- oughly before he is allowed to go on with the study of advanced plumbing. Regular examinations are held in which he learns the theoretical side of the work. Sanitary living, heating and refrigerating plants, and the estimating of the cost and labor of different jobs are studied so as to give him a firm foundation to build on when he later has a shop of his own. The estimat- ing of work and jobs is of great importance because, even if he is a good workman, it will mean his success or failure in the work especially if he is a contractor in this line. The electrically driven pipe cutting and threading machine is a great time and labor saver to the students. The boys are permit- ted to use this machine only after they have learned to cut and thread pipe by hand. This machine can handle all sizes of pipe up to four inches in diameter. One of the most difficult and important requirements of a plumber is the ability to wipe a good joint. The students have to spend much time and labor before they can perform this operation successfully. Molten solder is poured on a joint in the pipe and is swiftly worked and smoothed around the joint with a cloth pad into a smooth bulge around the pipe. Many inventors have spent their lives and fortunes on machines to wipe joints, but no way, except by hand and patience, has yet been discovered that will make a leak-proof perfectly made joint. i - UL as ..117'.LXe .Mies Prin ting Printing is in itself a means of education. Its product enters into every part of our business, social, and intellectual life. For this reason, printing, by binding this wide country together is one of the most import- ant factors entering into our national life. The Print Shop of this school requires of the printing students the practical applica- tion of knowledge gained in the study of grammar, rhetoric, and composition. The students' spelling is strengthened in learn- ing to set up type. Ile is referred to the dictionary for the correct spelling, division and definition of words 'more often than in the preparation of any other school lesson. This leads to an increase in his general knowledge and in correct expression. There are three divisions of work a stu- dent may take. Composing room work in which he learns the intricacies of setting type for newspapers, cards, and signs of every kind: linotyping in which he becomes expert the can go into the commercial field as an apprentice soon as he finishes hereby press room work in which he learns the care of the presses and full details of their operation. Much work is done every term in this shop for this school, outside schools and the whole district. Ilere the Tech Pep is printed weekly, the Spectrum for Jefferson, monthly, and the Poly Tech once a term. The thousands of copies of the school dis- trict's report are also handled here. Much other smaller work is done, such as thous- ands of index cards, outline maps for the elementary schools, and large numbers of office forms for use in all the schools in the district. l iiff POLY liBlii TECI? fill!

The piping in the boiler and engine room at has a unique system of various colors to indicate the contents of the pipes. The colors that the pipes are painted relates as closely as possible to the nature of the con- tents within them. This system has re- ceived much worthy comment by various technical men who have visited the school. Ca eferzkz The Benson Cafeteria has been in use ever since this school was built. Lunch is served at 11:35 every day. There is a general tumult for fifteen minutes. The general expressions from the boys being: Double on the potatoes, please, Beans on the side, pleasef' The Cafeteria is managed by Mrs. Sadie Geer and five cooks, with the help of twenty of the boys. Three counters make-up the cafe, which decreases the time in serving the students. These counters display pies, cakes, fruit, ice cream, potatoes, meat, salads and other numerous edibles. On the south side of the cafeteria can be seen the hot dog counter which was in- stalled about two years ago. This stand was made for the students who have a bad case of gnawing of ,the vitals. lt sells pies, cake, ice cream, fruit, hot dogs, which are generally called hash in tights beneath the sheets. Two to three hundred students rush here every day. This stand is managed by six students, two dishing out ice cream. two juggling the hash in tightsu and two taking in the mazuma fmoneyj. The teachers are served from the kitchen of the cafeteria by the cooks. On account of the cheap prices sustained in the Caf no profit is made. The aver- age meal costs twenty-five to thirty-five cents. Only the best of food is served. The Caf provides a table for the stu- dents graduating, and only graduates are al- lowed to be seated at this table. If any Freshies or Juniors happen to be at the table they are gently, f'gently installed at another table. The cooks who prepare the eatables are: Mrs. Ora Marshall fmeat cookj: Mrs. F. E.

A busy business man was the father of a small family which he rarely was able to see, as he was too engrossed in making a fortune.
