We hope for you they have been happy years to which you can always look back with the fondest of memories. We also hope that while you have been here there has entered through your own two win- dows enough in the way of knowledge and ideals to equip you for the days ahead.

During his six years of administration, Mr. Puckett has proved himself an eflicient principal and helpful friend to the student body. His principles of demo- cratic education have gained recognition for Bloom among educational institutions. He has been bold in introducing new methods into the policies of the school and persevering in his attempts to execute his plans. The strength of his personality and convic- tions has achieved his purpose, namely, a school which is a training ground for life. In his work, Mr. Puckett has been ably assisted by Mr. Dyer, assistant principal and dean of boys, and Miss Theobald, dean of girls, who have both given conscientious service to Bloom. 1 I ORA M. THEOBALD W. P. DYER Dean of Girls Assistant Principal Too often the members of the Board are the un- sung heroes of the school. Although their work is done behind the scenes, it is a most important factor in the success and efficiency of an educational insti- tution. Willingly giving of their time and energy, they Work faithfully in the interest of the com- munity and students. The members of the present Board have faced per- haps greater problems than those in the past years. Despite financial difficulties they have maintained the high standards upon which our school has oper- ated for many years. In all their endeavors the Board members have been supported Whole-heartedly by the townspeople, who have been more cooperative this year than in many years previous. For their efforts and accomplishments We as stu- dents are grateful. E. J. FENNEMAN N 1 Ii. RICHARDS H. ADAIR 0 GUIDES T0 LEARNING Q Allard Anderberg Applegate Ash Berg Bone Briggs l Bull DXVIGHT W.

Into these four years have been crowded many hours of forming friendships and developing our minds and bodies. Now that we must leave these pleasant associations, to follow our various interests, we part with regret. The oflice, which had once seemed austere and intimidating, now has become a familiar and pleasant part of our high school. Our teachers, who once seemed lofty authorities, have become our cherished friends. The library doors, once IIVING T0 LEARN 0 FCJUR entered with trepidation and dread of that anguish experienced in plodding over the pages of a volume of Tennyson or a history of the American Revolution, have become one of the prides of our school. As we look at the bleachers, the memories of those un- comfortable hours spent sitting on hard wood while we tried to be attentive to a sometimes dull speaker, fade, as we recall the laughs we had at our class buffoons, the pleasure we experienced in hearing and seeing our tal- ented classmates perform, and the excitement we had in watching our teams Hght for victory. The in I Bloom l f all I YEARS OF LEARNING for the Art of Living SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS Snllnl-NVicksrrom, Secretaryg Ciarlo, President. Siumfing Swope, Treasurer: Powers, Vice-President. We, the class of 1939, are looking THROUGH THE WINDOWS of Bloom into a world of triumph and of defeat, of hope and of despair, of goals and of disap- pointments. We all hope that We will prove ourselves worthy of the great task set before us. That task is applying the learning we have acquired in our high school. We all hope that our minor defeats will but be a stimulus to greater triumphs, that our mo- ments of despair will spur us on to greater hopes, that our disappointments will but pro- voke higher goals. As we leave Bloom, memories of our years in high school keep returning to our minds: we reflect, and find that our class has made a record that we can well be proud of. Under the leadership of Crawford Murton as pres- ident of the junior class, we were the first class to have a prom outside of school. This is indeed an innovation in the history of the school. Crawford has also proved to be one of the best mayors of The City of Bloom that the school has ever known. Our class, however, has not had any one leader in all fields of activity. In leaving Bloom, we also leave positions of honor and responsibility to be filled by our posterity in the fields of ath- lecics, music, drama, publications, and schol- arship. With our sense of duty to the honor of our school well satisfied, we leave our win- dows and, with a hurried glance back, set our shoulders to meet the world, and hasten our steps to the outside. AVA Th 6 , B I 0 0 m llThesENloR PLAY NEW FIRES A cast of fifteen seniors, under the direc- tion of Mrs. North, presented the trials, trib- ulations, and triumphs of the Santry family and their friends, keeping its audience sup- plied with plenty of humor and true-to-life incidents through the three acts of New Fires. The play, given in the Vfashington School Auditorium, was presented to a full house both nights, December l and 2. The familiar plot was enhanced by laugh- able dialogue as well as by superior acting from the cast. It was the old story of the rich man who takes his spoiled, luxury-loving family to the country to try to knock some 1121120 into them, and has everything turn out beyond his fondest hopes. The sure-fire lines and rapid movement of every scene were instrumental in preventing the old theme from being monotonous. The cast consisted mostly of veterans of former Bloom dramatic productions, includ- ing Bennet Levy, Ernest Gohn, Janis Michel- sen, Arnold Shufro, Howard Gordon, Har- riet Pahnke, and Lois Stefan. New talent was uncovered in Carl jech, Margaret Fran- ces Englehardt, Crawford Murton, Ruth Weishaar, Lorna Pause, June Lawing, La- Verne Smith, and Norma Ekstedt.

The class officers elected in the fall were Joe Cipolla, the presidentg Jean Bonath, the vice presidentg Betty Bricks, the secretaryg and Rosemary Oliveri, the trea- surer. Jean Bonath took the duties of presi- dent during the second semester when Joe Cipolla did not return to school. The Junior Mixer was held after school in the school cafeteria on November sorh. It was very well attended and everyone had a lot of fun. The Carnival or Penny Social was a real success of the year. It was held Friday, March 17, in the school cafeteria.

Mr. Ignelzi, Mr. Harrison, and Miss Mellinger were the faculty members responsible for this event. The junior class also was responsible for the Class Day, the Baccalaureate, and Com- mencement. The juniors were quick to get into the spirit of Bloom and stayed with it through- out the year. Consequently it was a year that will be long remembered by all of them. 0 LIVING TO LEARN 434 ixvw - 3 pf. X S 3 Ll. In 6 fx? Nurling Xfnxw-1'5t4u Nllvvlv. Xl Xllvwlv.

These sophomores newly arrived from the lowly rank of freshies feel that it is their duty to uphold the dignity of their schoolg thus, they become so sophisticated that they out-sophisticaten even the seniors. The aver- age sophomore vainly strives to attain the friendship and companionship of upper class- men for he likes to be considered one of them. Seldom, however, does he stoop to converse with the freshman, and when he does, it is with condescending and patronizing air. The sophomore class is usually the least heard of class in the school. They are con- sidered uinsignificent in-betweensf' Under the capable sponsorship of Miss Paratore we have come far in all our aims and ambitions. Our big social event of the year was the annual sophomore mixer. The students readily responded to the petitions for this, thereby showing that they have the proper class patriotism and pride which will stand them in good stead when they become juniors and SOPI-IOMORE CLASS OFFICERS Fredrickson, Secretaryg Morgan, Treasurerg Nelson, Presidentg Engelhardt, Vice-President. seniors. With the sophomore board members acting as committee heads, all of the sopho- mores worked together decorating the cafe- teria, keeping the students entertained, and providing refreshments. The entertainment was all class talent, consisting of comedians, singers, and dancers. This mixer was ac- claimed by all as the best mixer that any sophomore class has had. Although every class receives guidance leaflets from time to time, the sophomore guidance ideas have been unique. Miss Smith, acting in cooperation with the sophomore advisors, has prepared guidance leaflets which prepare the sophomore for the momentous decision he must make when he becomes a junior or senior. In the first semester we took up Good Sportsmanship and Manners and topics on school problems. In the second semester, the guidance leaflets Were about the use of leisure time and preparing for various vocations in life. One of these, What Shall We Read? , was in the form of a radio skit and was presented over the public address system. 1 TVX .XlI!'1lllllIXViL'Z Ammlio Archer Ihnnmni Rllflllllll' li:u'mlv:ll H:11'rn'lI linrrmvnunl Hurry Iligclmv Uluntun Hlixxlkcxuln-x'gL'1' Hulznnl li-I-lvl' I:l'1lll!l I5r:xy llrunk lindnivk Hnrlun lhlrgmnn l':n'm'ggcy flzurlx.

The present freshman class of Bloom is one of the most active in history. In it are future citizens and statesmen of our United States. When, after four years, it dissolves, it will send famous dancers, politicians, singers, musicians, architects, engineers, artists, salesmen, and many others out into the world. Every line of work will be repre- sented. A small insignificant Freshie will become a famous doctor, another, a nurse, still another, a lawyer, and so forth. Many will go on to colleges for a better education. while others will go into business, well-pre- pared by Bloom's teachers. Our class officers are energetic and en- thusiastic, well knowing what the freshmen can do. The class president, Harold Ellis, Discover the Art of Friendship FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS Jurgcson, Secretary: Blaekhall, Vice-Presidentg Migloretti, Treasurer, Ellis, President. prepared, with the help of the other officers, our Freshman Mixer which we held on April 18. Our vice-president, Richard Blackhall, is an able and capable assistant to our president and with Emma Migloretti as treasurer and june jurgenson as secretary, we are bound to make this class a notable one. There are also numerous other freshmen who are help- ing our class. Among us, there is a future mayor of Bloom, a star quarterback, a star pitcher, etc. As the years go on, our fresh- men will be gaining recognition in many ways, and when we graduate we will leave a record in Bloom that can hardly be sur- passed. Miss Eleanor Wilson is our able class sponsor. ,Xlrxxxmlvr .Xllcn .Xnuulin .Mule-rmn .Xpvil .Xrmvlml .Xlizlrcllu Hamicki llnrxm I-Jwmluzlllv ,H:l1'wig Ik :clip-vu Ilizun-11:1 lilawklmidl lllmlpgclt llrzulxhxlw Ilx'z14llL'y lirzuly l!l':1nk:x lirzuwr lirwwll Hun-Ili ltxnm-rml l'inm'l1a-lli l'immi fnHA1'l 1 nllmi l44vlm'l1e'CiLi funk l'mvpcl'.

I X XI I-NG T0 LIVE Student Affairs Board weigh 'rhe pros and co Co-operative systems of hospitalization, marketing, etc., have occupied the national eye recently. Perhaps some of us have read of these and wondered at the novelty of the idea, but we had but to observe the relation- ship existing between the faculty and the student body here in Bloom to become ac- quainted with such a scheme. just as industry and consumer have found that it is better to co-operate than to struggle against each other, we, too, have found that the most satisfactory system of supervising extra-cur- ricular activities is through the co-operation of the faculty and the students. It is upon the principles of co-operation that the Student Affairs Board is founded. This board is comprised of seven students, elected by the student body, seven faculty members, elected by the faculty, and a pre- siding chairman. Only elected members have voting power. The board is divided into seven committees upon each of which a teacher and a student chairman are placed. The members of the executive board serve STUD!-'NT AFFAIRS BOARD ini!

Their construction is such that they embrace the whole of student-activity. The board meets weekly. It is conducted according to parliamentary law. Although this organization is exceedingly important by virtue of the duties which it performs, many of our students are quite unfamiliar with the purposes and intents of this body. It is of inestimable value as a coordinating body. The work of the board resembles that of a clearing house through which all activi- ties must pass. One can imagine the volume of business that comes to the attention of this body yearly. The responsibility which falls on the shoulders of the members of this body is excellent character preparation. Since there must be a central authority in every organization and especially in one which is so prone to the buffetings of Public Opinion, Mr. Puckett has the power to re- verse any decision of the board, a power which has never been utilized. I-Ie believes in Democracy and the teaching of Democ- racy through practieal experience in govern- ing and abiding by the government of others. 5 BROADCASTER BROADCASTISR an Cylke, Businggs 1y1an3gu.: Sim- Si'ali'1f-Powers, Business Man mons, Managing liditorg Powers B E R Advertising Manager: Mernitz, liditor-in-chief.

More pictures, better features, lively heads, well-written stories, and an all-around im- provement were the standards set up by the local chapter of the Quill and Scroll. The new staff dug in and came out on top. They also had had the report of the national and international critical services to which they subscribe by which to guide tremselves. The editorial department was under the supervision of editor-in-chief Richard Mer- nitz. Ruth Simmons reigned as managing editor, and city editor Donald Bodimer handed out the assignments.

AVA The 1 Bloom pg ACTICING THE ART I OF Goon GOVERNMENT THE CITY GF BLOOM During the past year citizenship attained a new all time high in our student govern- ment. With the advent of the new assembly- citizenship plan, this year has proved to be the greatest financial success yet experienced by the City of Bloom. With a small portion of the funds acquired this year, the City of Bloom equipped the school with pencil sharp- eners. Those which were previously installed were serviced and reconditioned. An able administration supported by an interested sponsor, Mr. Harrison, gave an- other Homecoming banquet. This was a con- tinuation of the event inaugurated by last year's directors. Large strides were made toward the solu- tion of the hall situation. This year a re- conditioned hall guard system swung into action, relieving the inter-period congestion. The live wire council pledged during the campaign was effected. Plans for a new Boy's Club materialized into an organization with a future, under the tutelage of the Student Council.

This council is com- posed of representatives chosen from the classes of the school: senior, junior, sopho- more, freshman. A councilman is elected each semester from every home room and they are eligible for re-election. The councilman must be a citizen of the City of Bloom and must have carried the work of the previous semes- ter with an average of C. The regular meet- ings of the City Council are held once each second week during the school year. During these meetings the councilmen discuss and bring questions up in the meeting on im- portant matters. Any member of the Council may propose an ordinance, but to be passed it must have a majority vote of the Council. Through the Student Council a better under- standing is created between teachers and stu- dents and the pupils are allowed to take an active part in the government of the school. The council is allowed to make its own laws and it is responsible for the enforcement of the laws. There is unconsciously created the recognition of leadership. The Student Coun- cil has been responsible for many construc- tive policies of high school administration. This organization has carried on important welfare work. Christmas baskets are packed each year and sent to deserving families. The importance of this work can hardly be over- estimated, for it gives the students the valu- able training which will encourage civic con- sciousness and responsibility. As the Student Council is an organization which represents the school they endeavor to assist whenever, and Wherever, they can. XVith Mr. Harrison acting as the able sponsor, and with the Mayor leading the dis- cussion, many school problems are solved. e l,l'l.XiiTxlNll TU INR' GIRLS IICAGUIZ OFFICERS Knusman, Secretaryg Montella, Treasurer: Xveishaar, Presidentg Miss Thcobald, Sponsorg Towle, Vice-President. if RECCGNIZING THE ART OF ACHIEVEMENT and LEADERSHIP The Girls League has had a very success- ful year.

THIQ NATIONAL HONOR SOCIIQTY The Bloom Chapter of the National Ilon- or Society, while not an active organization at Bloom, does exert considerable influence upon student life. lflection to this society is the highest scholastic honor a student may receive in Bloom. This year two elections were held. At the first, Carol Bindley and Janis Michelson were elected and duly initiated at a ceremony during Honor Assembly, June, l938. The other thirteen members were elected at the end of the first semester of their senior year. They were initiated at a special all-school assembly on February 10, 1939. QUILL AN D SCROLL The Betty House Chapter of Quill and Scroll accepted fourteen new members this year. Those installed at the animal meeting were: Ruth W'eishaar, Ruth Simmons, Doro- thy Michael, Marjorie Rump, james Powers, Sanford XVitter, Dorothy Pfeifer, Lucille Schwoetlerinann, Carol Bindley, ,lack W'est, Bennet Levy, Richard Mernitz, lflilabeth lfnglehardt, and Donald Bodimer. These members were accepted by lfdward Nell, executive secretary of the lnternational Honorary Society for High School .journal- ists on the basis of their superior worlx in high school journalistic fields, high character standards, and their scholastic records. AWA ,. K 5-, The Bloom .5 i LSTuclenTs Render An lnvaluable Service To School and Fellow Sfuclenfs TRAFFIC GUARDS Another major portion of the Public Im- provements Committee is the Traffic Guard System, which so efficiently directs the be- tween-period rush of traflic. Richard Mer- nitz, Traffic Commissioner, with the aid of several able lieutenants and a capable staff of officers serving them, has eliminated run- ning, pushing, and shoving on our stairways. This system was demanded by the students and not by the administration of the school. It is sufficient to say that no serious accidents have occurred in our halls during this school year. USHER SYSTEM The weekly assembly programs have pre- sented a problem of major import in our school arrangements. It is to facilitate the entrance of the students into the gym and the seating of the students that the usher sys- tem was organized. Twenty students served under the Fire- Chief Francis Sears. The assembly programs were all started within three minutes of the final bell in spite of the large increase in our population over last year. Another duty of this portion of the Pub- lic Improvement Committee is the scheduling of fire drills.

Although a routine matter, the hall guard system is one of the most important func- tions of the City of Bloom. It is this depart- ment of the City of Bloom which directs strangers to the oihce or about the building. Our hall guards create the Hrst impression of our school in the vistors, minds. With this in view, the City of Bloom tools steps to develop a more eflicient guard system, cap- able of formulating the best attitude toward visitors under the direction of Charles Grimes, Chief of Police. Another duty, and by no means a minor one, is the maintenance of order in the halls during the class sessions. 0 LIVING 'l'0 l.l'l .X LEARNING THE ART of Discussion and Organization NATIONAL AFFAIRS CLUB The National Affairs Club is under the sponsorship of Mr. Lanning. During the Hrst semester the National Af- fairs Club patterned its meetings after the Town Hall of the Air, heard over the N,B.C. network on Thursday evenings. In the club meetings the members discussed the topics heard on the preceding Thursday. During the second semester the club was divided into groups. Each group gave its re- port on a certain club day, and the members of the club entered into the discussion of the topic. The members of the National Affairs Club find the club both interesting and worth while. IVING TO LEARN o FOREIGN CORRESPONDENCE CLUB It's new: it's different: it's exciting. What? Why, the Foreign Correspondence Club, of course. Formed in the fall of 1938, its main objective and original purpose is to create a feeling of friendship between the boys and girls of America and the boys and girls of foreign lands. If teachers find added interest in their classes it is no doubt an interest stimulated by for- eign correspondence. This exciting pastime not only develops a feeling of mutual friend- ship but is a definite step forward in the promotion of world peace. NATIONAI, AFFAIRS CLUB Fits!

Dur- ing the year we visited important cities and places in Germany through talks given by members of the club. These talks were illustrated by slides. Miss Wile added much to the talks about the various places and explained them by tell- ing of her own experiences abroad. The outstanding event of the year was a joint Christmas party of all the foreign lan- guage clubs. The concluding meetings of the year were a round table discussion, Is Hitler justified in Whzlt He Is Doing?', and a one-act play given in German.

Questions which arose over the life of these laudable people were clarified by members. Preceding the Christmas holidays a party, sponsored by the Latin Club and other lan- guage clubs, was held. To appropriately celebrate the birthday of Rome and climax the club's activities a banquet, patterned closely after the sumptu- ous Roman feasts, was held. Favorite colors of the Romans were used in decorations, club members prepared an interesting program, and everything combined to make all partici- pants feel that this was an event worth remembering. r v AVA lhe Bloom ,Al v M l l'U'l'URl' liARMl'RS Ol' Aallilillilx Ilia!

The Future Farmers of America for 1938 and 1939 began a new era of development leading toward the establishment of a new and larger Department of Vocational Agri- culture and the occupying of the new Agri- cultural plant on the Bloom school grounds. One of the greatest years in the history of the organization has been completed and a line foundation has been laid for a successful future. BACHHLQRS CLUB Made up of senior boys who have taken home economics, the club is sponsored by Miss Peirce and Miss Garrison. Cnc of the main events of this year was a spaghetti supper, given on NVednesday, March 29. Different faculty members have spoken at the meetings on subjects of interest to the boys. At other meetings, prominent towns- people vvere the guest speakers. LIBRARY GIRLS Burfc. Rau'-Miehelsen: Lawing: Wlcstplmlg Ifkstedt: Holme, Swingler: klahns: I'ez7oli: Sim- mons.

There is no difference be- tween us but the difference of our memories. Whzit I am I am and I am what I remernberf, Year after year, the library, storehouse of man's experience, goes its quiet way offering to Bloom students through the printed page, the learning of past and present for memory and development. Girls of the B.L.C. give daily willing serv- ice at the desks while the librarians add new books to the storehouse of knowledge, pre- pare working bibliographies, revise book lists and in countless other ways make available library resources. BALLET CLUB Any YH club period you will find the girls in the Ballet Club practicing their pas de bourrees and tour jetesn in the girls gymnasium. This club was formed several years ago by a small group of girls under the direction of Miss Veasey. The club has grown until now it contains twenty-one members. The officers are: Evelyn I-Iammer, president: and Betty McAllister, secretary- treasurer. The club has been quite active this year, furnishing dancers for different programs, cardinal among them being the girls Christ- mas program, The Toy Shop. 0 I,I'I.XItNIXIl TU IIXI HOBBIES BECOME A FASCINATING ART FOR MANY STUDENTS SKIQIQT CLUB No finer spoitsmanship and fellowship can be detected than that which permeates the eleven enthusiastic participants of the Bloom Skeet Club under the sponsorship of Mr. Petersanti. The correct usage and care of firearms is the primary purpose of the club. An interesting feature of the organization is the hunting trips out of town or within the vicinity. Last season a McHenry County trip proved to be exceedingly exciting and successful. Competition previously has been among members only, but plans for competitive meets are being seriously Considered. ANGLERS CLUB One of the phases of club activity was the holding of a contest for both bait casters and fly casters with plugs and flys offered as prizes. The club planned an over-night trip to the Kankakee River and several one day trips to near-by lakes. Club members were entertained by the showing of films on the art of angling. The club has sent for and re- ceived information from different bait com- panies concerning the proper methods and equipment to use in catching the fish desired. The anglers are always among the first to be overcome by the Spring Fever.

KNITTING CLUB Knit one, purl one, drop two or three, unravel the masterpiece, and begin all over again. That was the general procedure at the beginning of the year when the girls began work on their hot-pads. The clicking of needles ushered in the fourth year of the Knitting Club with its original sponsor, Miss Hodgen. Wfith the departure of Miss Hodgen late last fall, knitting ceased-that is, until Miss Marshall kindly consented to take Over the club. Miss Marshall recognized the skill of some of the fair Bloomites and realized that it would be tragic not to promote this hidden talent. AVA The 5 by Bloom :lv l. HOME ECONOMICS CLUB Under the able leadership of its sponsors, Miss Wilstmn and Miss Bloedel, the 1938-1939 Home Ee Club has continued its work in bet- ter fitting the girls for home-making and office-holding. This year the club was fortunate in hav- ing very interesting and beneficial programs procured by Martha Bangs, the program chairman. Miss Mathews gave a lecture on her travels in Mexico which proved unusually interesting. A movie on the Manufacture of the Sewing Machine was shown by Craw- ford Murton. Types of Cafeteria Xvork, Food Preparation and Cafeteria Personnel was discussed by Miss Bone. l'L The A Bloom V ,, Il' ,.-1 ,N PHOTOGRAPHY X lfirxl K0ll'T'Tii10CI11lI1j.:Q Wfood- man: Boland: Sharman: Thom- as: Brassea: Rekau: Brinkruif, Second Row-O'Neal: Steven- son: Formentini: Spada: Patton: Shufro: Mr. Lare, Sponsor: W'oo, Secretary: Greig: Brink- ruff: Rekau: Craig: Miller.

PHOTOGRAPHY IS AN ART IN ITSELF PHCDTOGRAPHY CLUB livery year photography becomes the fas- cinating hobby of more and more Bloom students. The Photography Club was organ- ized in 1934 with a membership of twelve. This year the total membership of the Xu and Y clubs has been one hundred and forty-seven. The purpose of the club is to teach boys and girls how to take good pictures and how to develop and print these pictures. The students observe demonstrations of develop- ing and printing in the dark room, and study the different degrees of contrast in negatives and the kind of paper used for each. Instruc- tive slides are sent to the group by the East- man Kodak Company. During the second semester the members are taught how to take pictures under difficult lighting conditions and the more advanced photographers are given instruction in the use of the club's two enlargers.

PQSTER CLUB The organization of the Bloom Poster Club in January of this year under the direction of Miss Ash, created a new interest among the art students of Bloom. The purpose of the club is to make posters for different clubs and organizations of the school. The club began the sen1ester's activities with two programs of short talks on poster making and designing. The first posters were made for the Junior Penny social. So far posters have been made for the Glee Club concert, bake sale, operetta, and Bloom An- nual subscription campaign. AUDUBON CLUB The Bloom Audubon Club introduces you to the most interesting of nature studies. The Audubonites know the haunts and hab- its of all the common birds as well as their plumage, size, and color. During the year we have had many inter- esting and unusual things in the laboratory. The Audubon Club members find a pleas- ant pastime in providing winter feeding sta- tions, bird houses, and other types of bird shelters. During the club meetings bird con- tests and discussions were held. A bulletin was issued which contained the activities of the club. 0 l.IC.XllNlNfl TU llXlu STUDENTS SERVE and EXPLORE SWITCHBOARD GIRLS Two students take charge of the two switchboards in the high school office during each of the seven class periods. These four- teen girls are chosen from the senior and junior classes and in order to qualify must have made a good scholastic record. Although most of the girls interested in switchboard are taking commercial work, this is not a requirement. Besides answering the telephone, they do clerical work such as filing, sorting and counting out supplies, putting material in about seventy different mailboxes and many other minor office duties. They receive fifteen activity points and one-fourth minor credit per semester for this work.

RADIO CLUB The Radio Club has had a very successful year under the supervision of Mr. F. Sears, operator of amateur station W9DFD. Regenerative and superhetrodyne receivers were studied during the past year. A code class was established for the members in- terested in obtaining government amateur transmitting licenses. Twelve speakers in the gym and several others in various rooms were installed on Saturdays by members under the direction of Mr. Sears. A microphone was placed in room 317 to permit the broadcasting of pro- grams over the public address system. 1 l The Q Bloom if 'ft STUDENTS DEVELOP ARTS of ol- SOCIAL RELAT ONSHIP SUB-DEB CLUB Ho I look all right? How should I act? Am l making the most of myself? These are questions which every high school girl asks at one time or another, and the Sub-Deb Club, which was organized for the first time this year, is trying to answer them. Because so many girls were eager to join, it was necessary to divide the club into two sections, each of which had separate pro- grams although both dealt with similar problems. After a series of discussions on social be- havior, the X section devoted the meet- ings of the second semester to talks by fac- SL'lE-lll I5 Chl UTS I lofi Ron' - iarterg XX'aech: l sersg Pugh: Cooney: Mc- Xlaster: ki0UClI11.lIl1 Xlelaughlin, Treasurer lirsi semester: Talilos: lannon: Burton: l'iaeenti.

These were followed by a fashion show presented at a girls' assembly program in April. The Y section, in addition to talks simi- lar to those above, had speakers on problems facing the girl entering the business and col- lege world. They also made a survey of the attitudes of boys and girls toward one an- other, in an effort to create better under- standing. Both sections cooperated in producing the spring fashion show and joined in fun at a January party and a picnic in May. la c c i ,ig il The 1939 Bloom DEVELOPING The ANCIENT ART of PLAY DRAMATIC CLUB This year, for the first time, the Dramatic Club was divided into two sections-one for the freshmen and sophomores and the other for juniors and seniors. They inet on alter- nate Mondays. The hrst dramatic production of the year was the senior class play under the direction of Mrs. North. The play, entitled New Fires, proved to be very enjoyable to the audience and lots of fun for the cast. Following close behind this were prepara- tions for the Christmas program.

At the end of the hrst semester we were sorry to learn that Mrs. North was giving up her work in the dramatics department. We were happy, however, to know that her place was to be filled by Miss Leising. Soon after the beginning of the second semester, work began on the three one-act plays under the direction of Miss Leising. They were very successful. Every member of the club, at some time during the year, worked either in the cast of a play or on the production staff. At our club meetings we learned the fundamentals of dramatic work. At the end of the year some members will become National Thes- pians as a reward for the hours they have spent in dramatic work. 3' S K 1 . Q QW .

He also served as Quartermaster for the Band. ollt ...Cultural Ari of Music The Bloom band consisting of 48 memf bers concluded another successful year under the capable direction of Mr. Crumb. The band has provided music at all the football and basketball games and special occasions when called for. A joint concert was pre- sented in the fall, another in the spring, and one just before summer vacation at the Wlashington School auditorium with the W'ashington school band. Three band dances were given also, and each one was a huge success. The proceeds of the dances are used for the purchasing of uniforms for the new members of the band and buying new instru- ments. Practices are held each Monday, Wlednesday and Friday. This year for the first time members of the Kiwanis club of Chicago Heights are furnishing money to help the band members to become better musicians. Instructors worlt with the differ- ent sections one day each week after the re- hearsal is completed. Concluding the year, a paid assembly was given consisting of the popular swing tunes of the day and also outside talent. The ofiicers of the band were as follows: Edward Slironski, presidentg Billie Clark, the vice-presidentg and as secre- tary, Irma Stahl. The assistant director of the band was Vernagene XViclxstrom who is our well known drummer. l'lr',if Rouf--flil.irlt3 l'otoclinY: Xxtuscg Kronxallg Xardoni: Kcmpcg Cattog llarlicrg Xlerlacrg llavg l'aulscn1 llublmslu: ioccia.

Hardly once in a score of years can any school orchestra be fortunate enough to have a student who plays this rare and important instrument, especially when it is played with the artistry which Eileen so ably displays. Unassuming, sincere, and scholarly, she has won the hearts and admiration of all her fellow musicians and teachers who Whole- heartedly wish her the finest of success in the future. STRING QUARTET Marion Seidel, violin Alfio Pignotti, violin Margaret Schnable, viola Lydia Paris, cello The most outstanding ensemble at this year's state contest was the Bloom String Quartet, consisting of four of the finest young musicians to be found in any high school in any city. Playing with a truly pro- fessional spirit and intelligence, this group has won the acclaim and plaudits of musicians both old and young. With Marguerite Riet- veld as pianist for banquet and program ap- pearances, this ensemble has been the source of sincerely felt enjoyment for many gather- ings. IEARNING T0 LIVE 0 The 19 , loom N . fl, We develop The cultural arf of ITIUSI T C ORCHESTRA The purpose of the Bloom Orchestra is to study and present to the public the best music in the vast orchestral literature which is within its playing ability. In this respect, the orchestra has been highly successful. In- cluded in this year's reportoire were such standard numbers as Bach's G Minor Fugue, the Overtures to The Barber of Seville and Italians in Algeria by Rossini, Oedipus in Colonus by Sacchini, Smetana's overture to The Battered Bride, Iphegenia in Aulis by Gluck, and many other works interspersed with a few novelties of merit. Besides its con- certs, the orchestra serves as a highly im- portant training school for the players who are going into music as their profession. Un- der the baton of Mr. Schee with his fine back- ground of education and experience, these students receive an insight into the correct interpretation and technical requirements of professional musicians, and an appreciation of good music which will last them a life- time. At this year's district contest held in May- wood, the orchestra received a second place rating competing with much larger organiza- tions. First place awards at both district and state contests were won by the string quar- tet, Vernagene Wickstrom, snare drumg Ethel Merker, horng Marion Seidel and Alho Pignotti, violin. A group of Bloom's most outstanding mu- sicians were chosen as members of the all state Clinic Orchestra and the all state Sym- phony Orchestra last fall, with our brilliant first violinist, Marion Seidel, winning the coveted concertmaster's chair for the second successive year.

The chorus is composed of girls sc- lected from the regular chorus. The busy past included an all-school as- sembly on December 2nd, a concert at the Roosevelt High School at South Holland, and a contest at Maywood. The Disfrict con- test at Maywood was the greatest event of the year for the chorus. The Number 1, Class A rating that the chorus received was compensation enough for the hard work of the girls and Mr. Kickert. They are eligible for the State contest at Peru, Illinois.

MIXED CHORUS The Mixed Chorus has become a promi- nent organization during the two years of its existence. Meeting every Friday morning, the sixty-five members, under the direction of Mr. Kickert, have worked diligently to prepare programs for both school and local appearances. Participating with the orchestra and the Girls' Glee Club in an assembly program last fall, the chorus demonstrated the results of concentrated efifort. They sang Noble Cain's negro spiritual, Go Down Moses with force and vivacity. Lo, a Voice to Heaven Sound- ingn was a sacred number sung by the chorus. Shifting to a lighter mood they con- cluded with the popular Rose Marie. ADVANCIQD tQl,lfl'.

ADVANCED GIRLS GLEE CLUB The Advanced Girls Glee club has had an enjoyable year. All of its S7 members have been hard at work on several programs scat- tered throughout the year. The chorus appeared in an all-school as- sembly December Znd, with the Select Cho- rus and the Mixed Chorus and entertained the students for one hour with such melodies as Pirate Dreams, May Morning, Open Our Eyes, and Star Dust, The girls participated in another assembly on May Zlst, this time in cooperation with the school orchestra and band. BEGINNERS CHORUS The Beginners Chorus is a new organiza- tion at Bloom. The club is made up almost entirely of freshmen who have had some singing experience in the grades. We all remember the Beginners' rendition of The Indian Love Call' and May Morn- ing for the Glee Club pay assembly of last fall. The chorus, however, makes no effort to build up a repertoire for concert work. It meets primarily to study types of two and three part music, to drill singing on pitch, to do some work in ear training, imitation, etc. By the time the semester ends, the Glee Club is qualified to enroll for Advanced Glee Club work. 0 l,LI.tXRNlNfl TU LINE BOYS GLEE CLUB The Boys Glee Club has made some real progress since the fall of 1937, numerically as well as musically. When the organization started, only thirteen boys were enrolled. From semester to semester there has been a gradual increase in membership. Today the Glee Club has thirty members. Some of the outstanding numbers that the boys prepared were De Animals A'Coming by Barthalomen, The Shadow Marchn by Protheral, and W'e Sailed the Ocean Blue by Gilbert. The Glee Club sang before the student body twice this past year. They also sang with the Girls Glee club in South Holland on March 25th.

NELSON. The manager of our boys' athletic program is Coach E. R. Nelson. A resourceful track coach, whose teams always bring honor to Bloomis name, a crafty mentor of the gridiron, and a per- sonality beloved to all those who work with and under him, Coach Nelson remains a sym- bol for higher achievement in athletics and scholarship. As manager of the South Sub- urban League for the past few years, he in- stigated the organization of a new Freshman- Sophomore South Suburban Football League which went into effect this season. The first school to gain the championship of the in- fant league was Bloom. Stressing the importance of fair play and clean sportsmanship to his players, Coach Cecil M. Sarff grows continuously more pop- ular as he goes into his 14th year of leading the varsity football and basketball forces. Coach Sarff, contrary to the win-at-all-cost type of coaching, always impresses his play- ers with the idea of playing the game for what they get out of it. Sarff builds up in a boy an intense love for sports and an admira- tion of true skill. His boys have never lain down in competition and always give their best for the school, the spectators, and their friend, the coach. No matter what the material given him at the start of the season, Coach Hadwin Mc- Cann will come up with a winning combi- nation. Endowed with great patience and a talent for teaching, he can get the best there is in a boy to come to the surface. His light- weight basketball teams and baseball squad are always near the top in the South Sub- urban standings. just finishing his 16th suc- cessful season as an instructor here, he has a host of admirers and friends who join in wishing him many more years at Bloom. 0 LEARNING T0 EXCEL CHAMPIONS OF PHYSICAL CULTURE FAIR PLAY AND SPCRTSMANSHIP BH CLUB The B Club is an organization to en- courage and push forward athletic events.

To be eli- gible to join this club you must have been, or be, a manager in some sport. he boys who joined this club were taught something about first aid. They had men come from outside the school to give them some information about safety and what to do in case some athlete was stricken.

Swollif Rau'-Zan GOL The Bloom Fairway Kings are determined to win for Bloom her fourth consecutive South Suburban Golf championship. QAS this yearbook goes to press, the golf team hasn't as yet played a golf match in its 1939 schedule.j Three years ago, in 1936, golf was insti- tuted as a major sport in the South Suburban League. From the very first match, Bloom was recognized as a serious contender for the golf title. That year Bloom was honored as being the first school in the league to win the golf championship. With approximately twenty candidates reporting for the golf team this year, Coach Sarif had to find but one boy to H11 a vacant position. Eugene Kudlaty, who has been rapidly improving his golf game, was chosen. Number one man on the golf team is Chester Kasper. Kasper has been playing tournament golf this early in the season. His fine golfing has received much attention in the past few years. Having a wiry build, all of Kaspeifs power depends on his smooth wrist and hip actions. His deadly putting and long drives, together with long straight iron shots, chacterize his golf game. Number two man is Edward Bartusiewicz. Bartusiewicz is playing on the team for the third year. He, unlike Kasper, is a husky boy. His perfect co-ordination and accurate timing give him long driving range and straight sure irons. Always a careful golfer, he is noted for his accurate playing around F The iw Bloom J ffl ' the greens. BLOOM 1939 GOLF SCHEDULE May 4-Lockport. May 8-Blue Island. May 9-Calumet City.

Behind these figures lies the known fact that the heavyweight gridders are better than their record shows. Time after time the Sarffmen fought against overwhelming odds. Witli eight players returning from last year's first team, the season's outcome looked bright. These returning players and a green reserve squad started varsity practice drills. After only three weeks of practice, the Tro- jans faced Argo in the season's premiere. Argo proved to be a strong opponent. Combining a powerful running attack with dazzling aerial strategy, the Argonauts pro- ceeded to trounce Bloom 15 to 0. At East Aurora the Bloom line proved to be incapable of holding the victorious Aurora team. Final score: Bloom 0, Au- rora 20.

Cooperation Coach Cecil M. Sarff's heavyweight bas- keteers started the season with high hopes of winning the South Suburban champion- ship. Fighting hard to win, the Trojans' plans were upset when a flu epidemic as- sailed the squad. Bloom started the season with a 22 to 16 win over Parker of Chicago. Following the Parker game the Sarnfman took the Argo Argonauts into camp with a smashing 37 to 18 victory. It was in the third game of the season, the Bloom-Thornton match, that the Tro- jans first met defeat. This game was the seasonis thriller. With only 40 seconds left to play, Luttrell of Thornton dropped in a one-handed shot to put the Wildcats into the lead which they held to the end. For two minutes preceding this climatic shot, Bloom had held the lead 37 to 36. The Blue and White stalled to insure themselves a victory, passing the ball back and forth down the floor while seconds ticked away. Thorn- ton fouled, gaining possession of the ball when a Sarffman missed his penalty throw. A long pass to Luttrell, a short dribble, and a one-handed hook shot won the game for Thornton, 38 to 37. The Bloom basketeers reached their peak in the Bloom-Mt. Carmel game. This game was one of the fastest tilts played on the hardwood during the '38-'39 season. Mt.

It was only in the waning seconds of the game, that co-Captain Francis Sears scored a field goal to eke out a 38 to 36 victory for Bloom. Following the Thornton game, the Tro- jans won twelve straight games from league and non-league opponents. This winning streak was broken by Calumet City, who trounced Bloom 20 to 18. Preceding the Calumet City game, Charley Grupp, ace pivot man and defensive star of the Trojans, was lost for the season after an attack of flu. Losing Grupp weakened the team's play considerably. The boys lost their last game of the season when they met Lockport. The Trojans had beat the Lions in a preceding tilt. The Sarffmen finished second in the South Suburban League with a record of nine wins and three losses. They finished the season's schedule, Winning fourteen games and losing three. Much of the winning credit is given to the reserves. This year, Coach Sarff had a second team that could replace the first team at a second's notice and play par ball. In Swope, Delsner, Nelson, and Scampini, the Trojans had a fast-stepping basketball unit. Leaving the team because of graduation will be co-Captains Earl DeTella and Francis Sears, and reserve forward Warren Swope. Returning to next year's team will be letter- men Leroy Robinson, Jack Hendron, Charlie Grupp, Toni Delsner, Ray Nelson, and Vin- cenzo Scampini. With every boy returning to the team for the third year in succession, the Trojans are looking forward to one of the best seasons in the history of Bloom. 1938-39 HEAVYWEIGHT BASKETBALL SCHEDULE We OPPONENT They 36 .

BLOOM'S LIGHTWEIGHT CAGERS STRIVE FOR RECOGNITION Bloom's lightweight basketball squad was victorious in eleven out of its seventeen games this past season. The ponies won seven games in the South Suburban league, and dropped five games to hold down third place in the final standings of the race. In the South Suburban Bloom was suc- cessful in defeating every team which faced her except Lockport and Calumet City. Much of the early season's success can be traced to the fine all-around playing of mid- term graduate Dario Capacasa. Teamed with Jimmy Lupien at the guard posts, Bloom had two of the best defensive men in the league. When Sparrow Aprati wasnit pro- viding that necessary spark and scoring punch at center, which was very seldom, Bob Olson, sophomore youngster, filled in capably at that position. Bloom fans will find it hard, too, to forget the flashy playing of Scott and Gaffney at the forward posi- tions. In numerous instances Coach M'Cann used this alternate team, which many followers believed was on par with the starting line- up. He had the aforementioned Bob Olson at center with Ascher and Graziani as for- wards. Billy Seibert and Flash Sanders han- dled the guard posts. Much credit should be given to this second team. 1938-39 SCHEDULE AND RESULTS South Suburban Games Bloom 25-Argo 12 Bloom Argo 20 Bloom Thornton 14 Bloom 15 -Thornton 8 Bloom 19-Blue Island 13 Bloom Blue Island 27 Bloom Bloom Kankakee 19 25- 40-Kankakee 16 Bloom 14-Calumet City 16 Bloom 16-Calumet City 25 Bloom 19-Lockport 23 Bloom 18-Lockport 23 BLCDOM CINDERMEN EXCEL IN VARIED TRACK COMPETITICN Despite the inclement weather this spring, which hampered the boys in getting into shape, Coaches E.

In the first meet of the season, the Trojan trackmen soundly trounced the boys from Pullman Tech. The score: Bloom seniors-113' Pullman Tech seniors-0 Bloom juniors--95, Pullman Tech juniors-0. The highly touted University High School was the next to be defeated by the Bloom seniors. The score: Bloom-63, U. High-so. The Bloom juniors lost, however, Sl to 44. Bloom again dominated the scoring in the meet with Morgan Park Military Academy. The Bloom seniors scored 92M points to MPMA's ZOM. The Bloom juniors also won, 78 to 12.

Five field records have been broken this year: Seipel cleared 11 feet 3M inches in the pole vault, Meidell did the 220 yard low hurdles in 24.3, Hutchinson ran the 660 in 1:37.2, Schiewe heaved the discus 124 feet 10 inches and the relay team composed of Jech, Schiewe' Klyczek, and Meidell ran the half mile in 1:39 flat. Full credit is due Coaches Nelson and Anderberg for the fine showing of the track squads this season. The track boys are good and they have shown it.

Sonny Kristie held down the initial sack, with Cap- tain Earl DiTella at second base. Tony Janis did his part at the hot corner, while Ed Czyz completed the infield. With Leroy Robinson in center, Dodo Devine in right, and Wally Flager in left field, Bloom had one of the best defensive infields in the South Suburban league. Jack Hendron held down the catching duties behind the plate, and did much to steady down the hurlers who, at the beginning of the season, were thought to be the weakest part of the team. However' some of the scores as indicated in this book will show how well this important part of the team came through. Up to press time, Markionni and Schultz had each won their two starts, and Billy Siebert had won his only start. BLOOM 22, LOCKPORT 6 The season finally got under way at Lock- port where the Lion's roar was diminished somewhat after the Trojans had set them Qlvlxe, t ls - .x.,Qiv.' L down 22 to 6. Skeezix Markionni was given credit for the win although Coach M'Cann sent in Meyers and Schultz in order to give them some experience under fire. BLOOM 11, ARGO 2 The Blue and White diamond men returned home and on the following day won an easy 11 to 2 victory over Argo's Argonauts. The timely hitting of Hendron and DiTella, along with the seady hurling of Eugene Schultz gave Bloom its second Win in as many starts. BLGCM 10, BLUE ISLAND 3 Opening the busiest week of their season, Markionni came back and won his second start of the season by setting down the Islanders with 3 runs and only four hits. In the fourth inning of the game Bloom lost the services of Markionni when he walked off the mound to inform Coach MCann that something had snapped in his throwing arm. After a hurried examination, it was announced that he would be unable to pitch any more games during the season. BLOOM 8, M. P. M.

In fact, there are some girls taking part in G.A.A. activities now, whose mothers participated when they were in school. The aim of the G.A.A. is to create an interest in girls' athletics. The organization strives to promote good sportsmanship, em- phasize health rules in connection with ath- letics, and organize girls' sports. The activities of the G.A.A. are planned by a board which meets every Wednesday, consisting of three officers elected by the girls and two representatives from each class. The ofiicers for this year are Irma Stahl, president: Eileen Ellis, vice-president, and Anita Cioe, secretary-treasurer. Three successful tournaments were spon- sored by the G.A.A. this year. The first was the tennis tournament won by Carmen Pez- zoli. The second, a volleyball tournament between teams from different classes, was won by the seniors. The seniors also won the basketball tournament. There were bad- minton and table tennis tournaments held during the year. Each year the G.A.A., together with the Girls' League, sponsors a party for the fresh- man girls. As a member of the State G.A.A., the Bloom organization participates in the state play days, offering the girls an opportunity to become acquainted with many girls from various schools. The G.A.A., with its many activities, has grown to be one of the most important and interesting associations in Bloom. CHRISTMAS CAPIZRS Tlfifl RlI1l'1'SCIlIt7fSQ juniors: Sophomore b.

This provided the instructors with the opportunity for finding out with whom the players uclickedf, Two teams were chosen from each class. The final results showed that the seniors were champions. The girls again participated in the annual state basketball shooting contest. Many hours were spent practicing shots from the various designated spots on the floor. june Braun, Susie Pristach, and Irma Stahl made the eight baskets out of ten attempts. Helen Canieck, Jean Bonath, and Jeannette Reynolds were others having high scores. The seniors played the juniors on March 3 during a regular Friday morning assembly. The whole student body marveled at the skill which both teams displayed. The seniors won 16-9. The proceeds of the game were di- vided between the G. A. A. and the Girls League.

This year the G. A. A. spon- sored a tournament which any tennis en- thusiast could enter. Carmen Pezzola was the champion for this season. BADMINTON Badminton is comparatively a new sport at Bloom. Although it has been introduced only recently, the girls have already mas- tered it. In the tourney that was scheduled, 53 girls participated. Onis Castor was the champion of the seniorsg Susie Pristach won the junior: Betty Castor was the Winner of the sopho- moreg and Jean Kuraj was the winner of the freshmen tourney. AVA VOLLEYBALL Witli the approach of fall and the opening of school, our athletic minds turned to the favorite indoor sport, volleyball. Volleyball offers close competition and re- quires speed and skill on the part of the player. It arouses vivid action and thrills the player as well as the spectator. After many weeks of limbering up and putting it over the net with a swift serve at practices, the teams were chosen. Since there were only three teams in each division, the teams played in the same tour- nament. The beginning freshmen participated in a special intra-class tourney composed of five teams. The winning team was led by Emily Biaselli. They showed unfailing sportsman- ship. The sophomores, with two years of ex- perience, exhibited skill. The juniors, playing a very snappy game, were a considerable hindrance to other teams. The seniors, through cooperation and skill, won the tour- ney in Hne style.

Let's look THROUGH THE WINDOWS of the future and try to predict the answer- The tower, majestic and grand, sym- bolized Bloom. Don't you remember how tall it was, with its narrow slits for win- dows? Wasn't it thrilling to see it loom- ing up over the horizon, when we walked over the prairie on our way to school? Gosh, it was fun to try to Whisper in the library without getting caught! But you know, that enforced quiet made me love it. Now it seems like the sanctum of the whole school. Don't you remember the gym, with its shining floor? It was rated as one of the best gyms in the state. Those basket- ball games sure were fun. I like to remember the cafeteria. Way up there on the fourth floor, we could see the whole countryside. To the north were the fields of the nearby farm, where the cows browsed in spring, and on the south was the city. Will our memories be like this? Well, we'll see.
