Our thanks are due to all who have helped us in the collection of materials, especially the faculty sponsors for each department. The year of 1950 marked the Centennial of McLean County, and called to our minds the his- tory of our predecessors who made Bloomington. We hope that as citizens of Bloomington we may carry on in a worthy way, and that these four years of high school training have prepared us for use- ful, happy lives. As our readers scan the pages of our year book again and again, may they never fail to revive memories that will stimulate them to up- hold the standards with which we, the Seniors, have left our school. E. R. KIRBY Member of the Science Department Teezclaer Friend Counsellor For his thoroughness as a teacher, for his earnestness as a friend, and for the fact that under his leadership the Aegis Staff has had, in this year of so-called depression, the greatest business suc- cess that any Aegis Staff has known, we, the Senior Class of 195 1 , dedicate to him this, our Aegis Q f X v - awy,-as 1 . a A -A W' a,-..-...-...r L,.,L,gLL.

IVICDOWELL,Sup61'f71l6l1lZ'E71l The Board of Education The Board of Education under the charter, is composed of seven members elected by the people at large. One of their number is selected as President, another as Treasurer, and another may or may not be selected as Secretary. However, as the present Board is composed the President and Treasurer are members of the Board of Education. The Secretary is not a member. The Board of Education is composed of high class citizens who give unsellishly of their time and energy for the educational program of the children of the community. They assume this responsibility cheerfully and have at heart the educational welfare of all the boys and girls in the district. Consequently they have been painstaking in planning buildings and equipment and selecting the best corps of teachers possible. It is sometimes difiicult for patrons and pupils of the schools to realize what a difficult problem a Board of Education encounters when it attempts to put on a progressive educational program with limited funds. It is gratifying, however, to note that the citizens and students of the district have sympathy, patience, and confidence in the work of the Board of Education. , , 9 .V--imma ,. , Vey ,,,, -Y . ,, , -...WK -wean xr . i 1 i W . .V Y YY- Y Y , V.

To establish between parents, teachers, and students a sympathetic understanding. b. To study together in a serious way the objectives, plans, and purposes of the modern high school. c. To develop a desire to solve problems discovered by the group. From a small group organized in March, 1915, the Association has grown and gained in influence. Mrs. W. C. Kane, as program chairman, has been responsible for the speakers and music of the meetings which are held on the third Monday of each month in the Girls' Gymnasium. The students of the high school have given the musical numbers and readings. n The September meeting was devoted to the incoming freshmen. Mr. Goodier a-nd Miss Grace Inman were the speakers., Great interest was shown in the Fathers' nights programs, these being the best attended meetings of the year. At the December meeting representatives from each of the High School clubs gave interesting sketches of their work. The Association was sponsor for a Christmas party for the Freshmen which was a great success. At the january meeting the President of the senior class, Carter Duncan, discussed the. proposed Student Council which failed to carry in the election. The outstanding achievement of the year has been the establishment of a fund for student relief work. The officers are: Prerident, Mrs. J. M. Raisbeckg Firri Vice-Prerident and Finance Chairman, Mrs. Ernest Baldwin, Second Vice-Prerident and Program Chairman, Mrs. C. Kane, Secretary, Mrs. H. C. Melbyg Trearurer, Miss Lorah Monroe. 16 ..f-'L'L5.,. ,L,,,,,,, . .,...m. - ,L - ,.,.,.,.--a.4 eff ' 5- B. .,.IL..nf:ff-y if M --.-'Z-xref-wer.. M.

For his vivacity, his cheerfulness, and his courtesy, he will long be remembered by the friends he quickly won. Although he attended B.H.S. but a few months, his death is deeply regretted by the faculty and student body. WILLIAM ADKINS . z, When spring came, a boy was glad because he had reached another goal-post in life's game, I Summer arrived, no better time, for play and swimming, with one's friends! And then came fall--with its school days, once more. Again, the boy took up his books, and Bloomington High School-its pupils and its teachers, learned to know him well! But, in the ceaseless course of time, winter too was not far behind, and, with it, came William, for a while, still smiling, glad and hopeful, to the end! Who would not say, God reveals Himself, in many ways! MARY ELIZABETH BROWN The students of Bloomington High School sincerely regret the passing of Mary Elizabeth Brown, a member of the Freshman Class of 1929-1930. Always willing and eager to aid others, she was highly valued by all who knew and loved her. She will always be remembered as a faithful, loyal student of this institution. 17 1 -r A f s:1.esfz42Q2f:4 1, :. Mfr .i9:LW5E:f7f.f:?i .

V, , ,, WARREN A. GOODIER Principal? Message It is the principal's wish that each student in our high school may consider education not as something that may be added to a personality to be used in the future as occasion demands, but rather as a development and unfolding of inborn talents which will func- tion in later life by revealing those desirable traits of character so essential to the successful life. Education which does not manifest itself in unselhsh service, high ideals, dependability, honor and sincerity may very properly be questioned as true education. 20 CLYXSSE S SONG OF' THE CLASSES h, see 'lhe poor Freshman who ails over 'l'here, His guido was his molher before he came here, He's Iosl' inlhe halls, no landmark he sees, The approach 6l:'l'he Dulve makes him wealth in 'rho knees.

The programs vary. Several motion pictures have been given at different meetings and different members have talked to the club. Three field trips have been taken. A visit was made to the Chem-Show at the University of Illinois on December 13, 1930. The next trip was to the Junior Academy of Science in Peoria on May 8, 1931. The last trip was made to the Corn Products Corporation at Peoria, May 9, 1931. In addition to these activities, the club sponsors the annual Kem-Shoji in which all present students of Chemistry take part. One member of the club, Phil Hooton, is treasurer of the Illinois State Junior Academy of Science, of which the M.A.C. is an active member. 65 Top row: BILL CLENDENIN, RICHARD ASHWORTH, CLYDE THOMPSON, DARWIN RUST, WESLEY NELSON, JIMMY JACKSON, CHARLES HELM, ALBERT HOOPES, LEO PIPER Third ww: RUTH DREXI.ER, EVELYN DURIIAM, MARTHA JANE HLTTCHISON, MONA ARCHER, ELIZABETH DANEORTH, ANN HERRICK, BEULAH CLAMON, PHIL HOOTON, GERALDINE BRADSI-IAW, VIRGINIA MAMMEN, MARGARET MCDORMAN, DORIS WORSHAM , , , Second row: ORLIOND IRVUIN, HAROLD HILLMAN, ELEANOR DODGSON, GERTRUDE ULERICI-I, JANE HIITAERAND, MARY' K.

JEAN HENDERSON Amid the sand of the salamanders and alligators, the burrow of the groundhog, and the Screech of the Owl, the Amateur Burroughs Club members assemble. We create a deeper interest in the native flora and fauna and cultivate an appreciation Of wild life in its natural environment. We are affiliated with the Junior Academy of Science and Soon we will be nationally known. The students of biology and the club members are already preparing posters and projects for the Academy exhibit in May. Last fall we held a big hike at Mackinaw and Soon a Series of spring hikes will follow. Our club membership has been increased until now we have 37 members and with the help of nature-lovers, we will achieve great success. 66 ' Top raw: DONALD BOLINGR, WILLIS HIGHT, FRANKLIN SHEPHERD, DONALD RIEGGER, JOHN WHITEMAN, HERBERT HANNER, HARRY RICE, HERBERT BROVVN, WOODFORD TIBBETTS, HOWARD HULVA, RICHARD GRIESHEIM, HOWARD HURST Third row: HELEN MILLARD, GERALDINE BRADSHAW, JANE HILTABRAND, MARGARET EGAN, DOROTHY LARISON, BERNADINE BOZARTH, MARY ELEANOR BUNNELL, EUGENE SWANSON, EUGENE BOEELL, LEWIS ROSEN, EDWARD SIGLER, LEROY WALLEY, RALPH CALLAWAY, EGBERT CUMMING Second ww: GLENNA BURNSMIER, VIRGINIA DEETZ, MAVIS ALLEN, LORETTA PROCHNOW, MARTHA Cox, CHARLOTTE COMPHER, KENNETH FRYER, MAXINE KLENNER, MARGARET KIMLER, VANICE WOOD, MARTPIA YOUNG, JAYNE FIKE, LEONA BELL, TRESSIE REYNOLDS Franz raw: EILEEN POWELL, BETTY CLARK, ROBERTA COOPER, EVA VAN WINKLE, MARGARET TROEGLE, IVIISS SMITH, WILLIS SMITH, ANN HERRICK, JEANNETTE PEUND, MARY LOIS KLEINAU, DOROTHY THOMPSON The Art League CABINET ' President . . . . ....... . ......

EVA X7AN WINKLE This club, founded in 1918 to further the interest of students in that which is beau- tiful, has had another Successful year to add to its history. The events of the year began with a Wiener roast on the date of the first regular meeting. At the next meeting, Mrs. Spencer Ewing gave us a very pleasing and in- structive talk. She used as her subject, The Art Motive of Japan. At different times during the year We visited the art exhibits of Oils and water colors shown at the Russell Art Gallery. On the occasions of these visits, Miss Smith gave a gallery talk, telling us, in an interesting manner, about the works of the North Shore artists of Gloucester, Massachusetts.

Because this society believes that its members should learn to make speeches in public, short talks on a variety of interesting and unusual subjects are given by the members at every meeting. At every alternate meeting a debate with all debating formalities is given. The Subject is always of interest to every one. During the semester, the club held an Alumni Prospective member party, which was well attended.

All work was carried out on the practice field and baseball diamond. The regular football field is progressing very nicely and will be in perfect condition for the games next year. More apparatus will be put up and plans for a new fieldhouse are being made. Coach Harrison with seven lettermen available from the 1929 squad was able to mold a successful football eleven for the 1950 schedule. The team was defeated only twice during the season by Peoria and by Decatur. The Homecoming attraction with Lincoln proved to be one of the high lights of the season. The Lincoln team, which had beaten Peoria Central 20-0, was held to a scoreless tie. Johnson's long runs behind perfect interference proved to be the feature of the day. The Purple and Gold realized the Goal towards which the football team had been striving all the season. The Inter-City title was wrested from Trinity High School on November 11. After a disastrous first half, Trinity was subdued by a 14-6 count. On the first play of the game Nelson, Trinityis quarterback, threw a forty yard pass to Sweeny, who raced over the goal line untouched by a Bloomington player. After tiring the Irish in the first half, the mighty Purple and Gold warriors swept the Trinity players aside at will and scored two touchdowns in the second half. Three days later the Bloomington team crushed Normal in a morning game, after previously defeating U. High, thereby winning the Inter-City championship with a clean slate of three wins and no defeats. By winning the Inter-City title, the Wollrab trophy was brought to Bloom- ington High School for the first time in its history. It is the wish of every student to make this trophy a permanent possession of the school. To do so it must be won three times in succession. Harrison faces quite a task next year to form a championship team around the four lettermen who will return next year and the few remaining members of the varsity squad. Assistant Coach Saat also has four or five good men who should help Harrison next year. 90 .1 y - ' L ml! S' 'mf H... , 1 C ,,. , ....,..,...-.,., ..,. -.. ..,....,.,... -,,.......-........,.

Hard tackling and excellent blocking resulted in an 18-0 victory. The Purple and Gold warriors experienced their first night game at Fans Field against Clinton. The team's fighting spirit was shown when Clinton scored a touch- down in the first few minutes of play only to have Bloomington return the surprise as they made a steady march down the field for a touchdown. A safety by Clinton in the last minutes of play won the game for us 14-12. Bloomington invaded Peoria the next week. Here the characteristic blocking and tackling was missing. The river-city boys overpowered us 32-6. Bloomington was completely out-classed in our second night game with Decatur. Led by the speedy Rex, the heavier Decatur team romped over our boys to the tune of 33-6. The Purple and Gold entered U. High to run over the lighter U. High team 26-O. Bloomington demonstrated they could play real football in the second half. In this game Woody johnson, our sturdy halfback, was knocked cuckoo. Homecoming proved to be a real success as Harrison's Cohorts held the strong Lincoln eleven to a scoreless tie. Bloomington outplayed Lincoln in every stage of the game and no less than four times was inside the ten yard marker. This game was a great victory for the football squad, in that it built a strong morale. Spoiling Trinity's Homecoming, the inspired Bloomington team fought a fast Trinity eleven off of their feet. Not disheartened by a bad start, Bloomington came back in the last half and showed to everyone that they were the superior team by beating the Irish 14-6. Playing Normal three days after Trinity, they were crushed 19-O. By defeating Normal, Bloomingtonians were undisputed city champs and transferred the XVollrab trophy from Trinity to its proper home, Bloomington High School. 91 ..,q-X ...,,.f- , . ag-...,.. ----me-W--Aww--W fe--A J--'fi as H ve-e----MWe-W-----'ee--M--A----fee--Wef-- , f ' 1 51, ,.

J, besides filling his position at end in great style, also called signals and did all of the punting. His receiving of passes proved his ability as an offensive end. Hallett finished his final season without missing a minute of competition. Much success of the season was due to leadership and fine sportsmanship. CAPTAIN-ELECT MELVIN EWERT, Tackle. Wreckem was a mighty tackle and was always in the thick of the scrap. He could always be counted on to be in there. With the experience of two years of competi- tion, he should make a very successful leader of the 1951 tribe. WOODY JOHNSON, Halfback. V Woody,', after having his collar bone broken last season, completed his last year at Bloomington High in a blaze of glory. His work in the backfield had no parallel. Woody was always good for yardage and an excellent safety man. DAN NORTON, Halfback. Dan Norton, the speed kingf' found football to his liking. Dan was always a menace to his opponents, and could not be caught in the open Held. Dan developed the most rapidly of any member on the squad. He leaves us in january. NORM MARSHALL, Quarterback. Norman was the team's blocking back. Although Norm was not as fast as johnson and Norton, he was a valuable player and made possible many nice gains. CLYDE THOMPSON, Fullback. Tommy, a transfer from Bethany, developed rapidly as a football player, and proved to be a real full, ':Tommy not only hit the line hard on offense, but backed up the line on defense. ROBERT BERGLAND, Center. Fat became one of the toughest centers in the twin cities. Farm plugged up a very large hole in the center of the line, and he will be missed next year. WILLIAM MOORE, Guard. Giggles Moore was the watch charm guard of the Bloomington High team. Giggles often took two men out of the play to permit johnson to get started on his long runs. Bill was never out of the play, and will be a mighty hard man to replace next year. RUSSEL FISHER, Guard. Fish was the heaviest man on our squad and added greatly to the team. Fish gets angry only when someone hits him in the nose, then he plays real football. He has one more year of competition. HODGE JOHNSTONE, End.. Hayseed', was a plugger and held down the right end of the line in fine shape. Late in the season Hayseed found the art of catching passes, which helped to win our last games. He will not be back next year. MAXON NORTON, Tackle. Max, while not very heavy, was a hard man to get Off his feet, and to be taken out of the play. Max's broad shoulders must be replaced in the line next year. 93 MZ-:j,,.lfQ'3N i . 1 x a -71 -.W - If 1 : if 112 1 M I C13 if' if ' LJ x2a.JL-am- 94 , 5, 1 3--.Q F + 'Q :Y ' 4 gm,-3 cm, X I JOHN MACKAY, Halfback. Red, our diminutive back, was used at either half and fitted very well into the coordination of the team. What Red', lacked in weight, he easily made up in courage and fight. He will not be with us next year. HAROLD REDIGER, Halfback In the Clinton game, Pat,' received a knee injury, which put him out of service until the last two games. Pat's gameness won for him the admiration of the entire squad. He graduates in june. DURWOOD BOONE, Halfback. Bone has been with the squad four years and has shown his ability as a passer. EVERETT CARLTON, Tackle. Everett showed a reversal of form from last year and played good football. He was a big factor in the team's success, and had a spirit that could not help but win. He will not be available next year. WAYNE LUCAS, Guard. Newkirk originally was a guard, but due to weak spots in the line, he was used as utility lineman. He is too good to be kept OE of any team. Newkirk will be back next year. ' WILBUR THEIVAGT, End. Wib,' was johnstone's understudy. He always kept the squad in good humor with his no-point jokes. He will be lost next year. DELMAR HAUGHEY, Guard. Del', experienced his first year of varsity competition and made good. Great deeds are expected of him during the next two years. WESLEY NELSON, Center. Crack', did not see much service, but afforded Bergland much opposition during practice tilts. He will graduate in june. - FOOTBALL 1930 September Leroy . . There October Clinton Here.

The team may he proud of their exiellent reiord. Mr. Harrison had to build the team over after the first semester as johnson and Hallett completed their eighth semester. ' B.H.S compeied in the annual Pontiac Invitation tournament during the Christmas Holidays, losing the hrst game to Dwight, Bloomington dropped into consolation bracket. Playing Hue basketball the team won the next two games but l::st the championship to Fairbury. Bloomington furnished the greatest upset in the Inter-City games. Playing Normal the first game after the Opening of the second semester B.H.S. outplayed, outfought and outwitted the greater Normal team to the tune of twenty-five to twenty-three. B.H.S. swept through the first three games of the District Tournament with great ease. Meeting U. High in the championship game, B.H.S. lost after leading U. High throughout the Hrst half. Inability to control the tip-off spelled our downfall. 3 Q7 Q i A 'q T if 1 11 QQQWV -1 f-if 1-11 5T'ff .

J. HALLETT, Forward was Bloomington's one-hand shot artist. It was not uncommon to see him throw in a basket over his head with a guard hanging on his neck. Unfortunately Hallett's career ended in midseason. WOODRUFF JOHNSON, Forward Woody had a great eye and often would start the game out by looping one from the center of the Hoor. His speed and clever foot-work accounted for many a basket. WILLIAM Ross, Center Ross was used as forward and center and was very reliable in either position. Ross's one-hand shots often kept B.H.S. in the running. VVILBUR CLAMON, Forward Peanuts inherited one of the forward positions at the close of the first semester. He conducted himself like a veteran during the season although it was his first appearance on the Hoot. CLYDE THOMPSON, Center Tommy was used as pivot man the latter Part of the season. He has great ability as guard and always holds his man to very few baskets. K XVILLIAM MOORE, Guard Moore again found the position of guard to his liking. Although quite small Moore,' always came away from the basket with the ball, leaving the opposing team standing in a group looking around for the ball. MELVILLE EWERT, Guard Mel played back guard and took the ball from the bankboard in fine style. Mel's height was very advantageous to the team and kept the opponents from fol- lowing in their shots.

Bloomington placed second in the meet with Downs and LeRoy. Dan Norton looked very good in the sprints. Three relay teams were sent to the Millikin Relays. The Freshman team placed fifth among fast competitors. Two shields for third places were carried home from the Gridley Relays, the two mile team and the one-half mile team having placed third. Dan Norton placed fourth in the final heat of the one hundred yard dash in the District Meet. He was the only entry that placed from the Bloomington squad. An effort was made to gain recognition in the Wesleyan Interscholastic Meet although the squad was completely outclassed. The Inter-City Meet was taken in a walk by Bloomington.

Sixteen teams com- posed of over two hundred boys started our to win the trophy which was found locked in a vault. After a week of elimination only four teams were left. Out of the mad scramble for championship came two teams, the B Club, and the Jayhawkers who fought it out in the final game. The B Club won easily over the 'llayhawkersf' Later the Faculty played the B Club and were beat. The intra-mural program will be ex- panded next year so that boys who do not compete in football may have a means of recreation during the football season.

Prize--Merufin Cup By RICHARD POSTLETHWAIT I'm sorry, dear. You know l'd love to go but I explained that I have to help mother enter- tain company. Oh, all right. Del banged the receiver on the hook and gave it a menacing glare. So that's her little story, is it! Well, I told her plenty of what I think of that. I've heard that sort of line beforef' jean and Del had met at a house party two weeks before when Ann Huntington realized quite luckily that all her guests were not acquainted. Though Bert Rankin is the name that had long been associated with that of Jean Horton, their affair had seemed hardly more than a Hirta- tion. And now since jean had met Del Jensen, Bert seemed perfectly willing to withdraw in favor of a more devoted suitor. Realizing that he would be more or less in the way and desiring to get a more practical aspect of his father's business, he chose to go to Australia as a foreman on the bridge his father was building there. ' Jean could be understood by the members of the opposite sex no better than can the average modern girl. Those who knew her might have called her fickle, but a more careful analysis of her character would have revealed more commendable traits. Though she was sometimes accused of not knowing her own mind, she had her own standards of fairness by which she stood quite strictly, sometimes causing agitation among those with whom she dealt. Slow worker is a term which could not apply to Del in any sense. Even in his crowd two weeks was considered quite a brief time in which to completely discourage one who was as thoroughly in as Bert had been and to place himself at the head of the list. He was not the type who believed in pressing his suit through the parents and therefore knew practically nothing of jean's home or family. The week-end at the Huntington's followed by tea dates, dinner dances, and several evenings together left no doubt in anyone's mind that they were quite in danger of falling in love. And now, on the night of one of the biggest country club dances of the year-the one to which he had looked forward to taking her-he has to help her mother entertain company. Well, that might be true, thought Del, trying hard to convince himself that the company was not imaginary. Perhaps I shou1dn't have answered her so rudely. Bert leaves for Australia to- mocprow, though, and I can't help thinking he has something to do with it. I didn't like the way she sat it. As Del drove up the long winding driveway to the club in his big yellow roadster, he didnlt know himself why he was there. Since jean had said she couldn't come he hadn't even bothered to get another date, but yet here he was as a stag. I'll just go in to have a look and see who's here, . he thought. 'fMaybe I can' bum a dance or two. As he went up the wide stone steps, he thought of what jean had said- help mother entertain company. That's a great occupation on a night like this. I'll bet she could get out of it if she really wanted to. Oh, I suppose I've a lot of nerve to talk like that though. Why should I suspect anything at all? As Del was leaving the check room, he heard the voice of Bob Evers. 111 ,.. .M . ,,.., ..,.,,h.....,,,,,.u-........ .-.,.., .Mfg ,,,,,,, if, T. I ,, , , ,,, . ' - ' A ra' 7- at y I ' K ' ' ' ....v.....-..- ,.....,.,..s...-a....,,..,. ,mm .... ,X X-j.z...a rf.. s 4. -.-....., -... Hello, Del. Hello, Bobf, echoed Del, turning to him. Where's Jean? Oh, she couldn't come. Has to stay home tonight. Gee, that's too bad. lt's a great party. You should have a date. Yes, I suppose so. I just didn't seem to want another one though for some reasonf' Kind of nuts about the girl aren't you, Del? Yeah, I guess that's it. Maybe l'll see you later, said Del, as he moved on towards the dance Hoot. Gee, the orchestra sounds great, he mused. 'Tm a chump for not having a date. Guess about everyone's here. It's going to be a great night for them. i'Well, well. The boy lover in person. How are you, Del? said Al Foster, breaking him away from his thoughts. - O.K., boy. Where's the little girl?' Oh, I got rid of her for awhile. She'll be looking me up pretty soon. h Kind of treat 'em rough don't you? Where's your club? Do you have any trouble beating t em off? Oh, no. No, I manage to make them hold their distance. Why a fellow 'made me' for a dance-that's where my date is. Say, where's Jean tonight? Couldn't come. That's a tough break. I know it, agreed Del. ' How's that roadster of yours? Will it still do eighty? For gosh sakes ! cried Del as if he had been hit and totally disregarding Al's,,question. Say, who's that over there with Horton? Over there? Why that's a cousin of her's. Came down from New York I think. Want to meet him? I was just introduced. No, never mind. Aw, come on. He's a good egg. Al took hold of his arm and before he knew it Del was being introduced to the cousin from New York. Mr. Jensen, this is Mr. Smithers. Mr. Srnithers is visiting our club for the first time, offered Al. How do you do, said Del. I'm very pleased to meet you, returned Mr. Smithers. This is my cousin, Miss Horton, Mr. Jensen. I'm acquainted with Miss Hott-, began Del. How do you do. You are Mr. Delmar Jensen? 'AEr, why yes, stammered Del. This is a beautiful club house you have here, Mr. Smithers put in ignoring Del's consternation. We are just completing a new one at our club. Oh, there's the next dance. We must go. I'm awfully glad to have met you, Mr. Jensen. Er-ah, yes, muttered Del. Once more in his car creeping slowly along the smooth hard road, Del felt better. But he was still at a loss concerning the whole thing. Why should she act as though she'd never seen me before? he pondered. She must have been trying to make a big joke of it. I hope it gave ber a big laugh. She must have a cold or something. Her voice seemed deeper but yet it was just as rich. Well, I guess it's all right. After all she ir entertaining company. By the time Del had ended his wonderings at home, he had convinced himself that it was a pretty good joke and resolved to take it as such. And after sleeping on the matter, he was persuaded that the proper procedure was to call her up. Hello, Jean, he began. How did you enjoy the dance?i' You know I always do, Del. Now that I've thought it over, I guess it was a good joke-your being introduced to me. You were really entertaining company though. 'lWhy of course. I told you I had to. I really think I owe you an apology for talking to you so rudely over the phone. I'm afraid I didn't much believe you. i'That's all right, Del. I don't mind. I can't blame you for not liking it. Are you doing anything tomorrow night? I have two tickets for 'Cherries are Ripe'. Oh, I'd love to, Del. That's great. About eight o'clock? All right. XWhy didn't you tell him. said a voice a little lower than Jean's but with just as rich qualities, that your twin sister entertained the company while you had ct farewell dinner date? Alice, you're a dear. ' 112 .. T-.. If - VV ' .N ......-- .,,.. . .,.. W., ,wh ,AMN-awk ,r A hw Y W 7 i I K . Y 1 . ,va Q 1.33 6, s ,iJ,,,Hik , .ve an f 33 -Swish. ' I .

Nope, you can't trust nobody in 'dis game, big burly Tim smiled complacently on the little group of henchmen near him, Thet's why I've lived an' lasted so long. Waiting not for an answer he continued, Tomorrow is my big day. Borrelli and his gang will look pretty sick when they hear the Not Guiltyl' sung out for my spe- cial benefit, but they won't be surprised, when Bernie pulls the big shot, they will know they're throughf' Yup,H assented one, tomorrow the Bor- relli is lickedf, And how, boomed Big Tim, I'll be out tomorrow night and from then on I'm going to make it plenty hot for Borrelli, especially since he furnished the state with crooked evidence against me. Startin' tomorrow Big Tim is Kin g. An, we're in for easy moneyf whispered a small Italian. Instead of you being burned in the chair youill be free. Up till now the trial's been agin' me an' it looked like I wuz through, but to- morrow Bernie's hot alibi will free me. And by the way boys, I think you had better be leaving. Take it from me, don't stick around a jail any more than you have to, and anyway I want to talk to Rosie privatelyf' The faces of the gangsters darkened and they looked with suspicion at the modern- istic girl who sat near the chief. Quietly they filed out of the prison guest room and disappeared down the long grey hall. Your buddies don't seem to lose any love over me, do they Tim?,' she questioned, drawing nearer. Dont worry, honey, ' he soothed, i'that's just because you belong to another gang. The fellows are all right, theyire just following my policy of not trustin' nobody. But you trust me, don't you, Tim?', Shore, shore, Rosie, you and Bernie. Bernie is the only man I've ever trusted in my life and tomorrow he'll save my neck by the hottest alibi this court ever heard. The Borrelli pulled a good trick when they framed me on this murder charge so that they could rake in all the coin, but Bernie will beat them. You're depending a lot on Berniels help arenit you, Timmy dear?', she asked casually. I Come to think of it, I am. Bernie practically holds my life in his hands and I wouldn't want a better man to do so, Big Tim answered stoutly. You,re too big hearted to be a gangster, Tim. You ought to be the Mayor or something like thatf' She smiled and laid her hand on his shoulder. I'Don,t try to kid me, Rosie, I'll show this town yet what an Irishman can do. He laughed happily. At any rate I'd rather be an honest gangster than a crooked mayor. - I wish you luck, but you will learn some day, and,', she added with a queer smile, when you do, this town will lose a good guyf, 113 'Tll probably get mine when the time comes, but I hope it wonlt be because I trusted the wrong fellowj, he said half seriously. And by the way, Rosie, I wish you would stop being the spotter for your gang. I don't much like for my girl to be the spotter. I'll satisfy you there Tim, she cut in smoothly, tonight at eleven I put my last victim on the spot. I've made a date with him under the State street bridge, but he wonit meet me, oh no, he'll meet a flock of bullets. 'iWho is it, Rosie? he questioned eagerly. Don't be inquisitive, big boy. Look in tomorrow's paper for a man bumped off under the State street bridge. Well, I'm glad it's your last one anyway, Big Tim answered. She smiled at him with a somewhat sad expression, and said, 'Tm going now Tim- goodbyf' She hesitated for a moment, then with a wave of her small hand, she turned on her heel and walked lightly across the cold stones of the prison floor. Tim gazed steadily after her until she was lost in the gloom of the prison corridors. He then walked thoughtfully to the small barred window, laying his arms on the stone ledge. He gazed out on the huge buildings of the great metropolis, wrapped in the dark shadows of evening, and sighed. He then muttered to himself. This aint no cinch, I'll be glad when I'm free againf, His huge breast expanded and his eyes shone as he thought of freedom and of the thrilling battles he would wage against his enemies. The next morning found Tim anxiously awaiting the arrival of his friends. Along the dim corridors he saw a single man approaching. Something about the stranger startled Tim. He looked closer. It was his enemy The Borrelli. The Borrelli was a tall, dark, somewhat handsome man, but with a leering suspicious countenance. He walked with quick hasty steps to the cell of the big Irishman. Wal', little Tim, your big days are about over aren't they?H 'IO yeahj' grumbled Big Tim, what's it to you, and what are you doing here anyhow? O, just dropped in to give you my last regards. Thought maybe you might advise me how to run your gang when you're gone. I'm not gone yet, Borrelli, far from it. You think that you've got me sure, but-'I UI know Iive got you. You havenit got a Chinaman's chance to get out alive.- You are through. Q , just you wait and see, Borrelli,'l cried Big Tim angrily. I'll get out and then I'll run you clear out of this state! We'll fill you so full of lead that? You won't do nothing, you dirty Irishmanf' Borrelli cut in smoothly. Your lazy hulk will just fill the hot chair nicely. This was too much for Tim and he burst out furiously, You don't know nothing, you lousy crook. I've got another chance. I've got another witness. I'll get out an i Dry up Tim, you havenit got another witness. You haven't got anything. You are through. Read this. The Borrelli shoved a folded newspaper through the bars to Tim. Big Tim took it. He glanced across the page and his eye fell upon a headline en- circled with black pencil marks and read: BERNIE HODGE-NOTED GANGSTER MURDERED UNDER STATE STREET BRIDGE AT ELEVEN P.M.--KILLER ESCAPES 114 Tom the Tramp Third Place-Merwifz Cup By JULIA BRANDO Yes, Tom was a tramp, not because he wanted to beg but because he had to be. Tom was old. Nobody wanted him. That is what Tom thought as he stood at the crossroads watching the auto slowly disappearing down the hill in front of him. The snow was piled in great drifts on each side of the road and the wind blew hard and was very, very cold. Tom wondered if he were going to freeze to death. Well, what difference did it make? Nobody cared, not even himself. I am old and nobody likes me any more, so I guess I have been left here to die. Oh, well, no one will miss me. Again the wind howled and blew down the road. It blew with such force that Tom was nearly blown over into the drifts. It took all his strength to keep in the road and he was so tired, so hungry and weak that he could hardly move. He decided to try to walk down the tiny path he saw in front of him. Surely it would be better to try to find the warm home to which he felt sure it led than to lie here in the snow and freeze to death. ' He had not gone very far down this road when a bright light flashed across the path as a door opened. A man called, Come, kitty, kittyf' Then Tow saw three cats run into the house. Yes, sir, Tom thought, that was a kind man. Surely if he fed those cats he would feed a poor tramp like I amg and surely on such a night as this. Tom's thought gave him new hope. He began to hasten his steps as much as he could. He would at least attempt to get something to eat. Perhaps they would even let him stay there all night when they found that he had no home of his own. His strength failed him when he reached the porch and he sat down to rest. What a contrast this porch was to the world outside. The wind did not strike him and as he rested he almost forgot his hunger. The bright light shown through the window and across the porch. Now and then he could hear the clatter of dishes and the laughter of little children. He went to the window. He could watch others who were happy though he was as miserable as could be. Again he heard that kind voice of the man. Come, kitty, kitty, kitty. Tom was so hungry, but could he ever get courage enough to attract the attention of the people? No. He was not going to beg. How could anyone, who had held such a position as he, beg for food? One who had been honored, and always given the best of delicacies, now begging for food! Oh, how could people be so cruel! How he hated those people who would rob the aristocratic class of what they had always had and what they deserved! He would rather die than be begging food. During this blind passion of thought he had forgotten the window. Now the kind voice once more broke in upon his thoughts and he looked in at the window. Yes, there were those three cats eating from a pan of something the man had just placed for them. Tom could not see into the pan but he felt sure that it was milk they were drinking. If only he could have a bit of milk how contented he would be. He remembered the 115 ,. ......, -...,..... ....,....,.,........,.......-..,.M-,..,..f V Q g r ..- - N '--' ' ' 2 , -W ---- i ' S W' . F ' L f rl ,s,inTqf? Qi days when he had had plenty, when he had had everything any one could wantg the slightest movement on his part suggesting that he wanted something and it was his. He was looked up to with respect and the dignity that had been his held him now. He simply could not get nerve enough to beg for food or anything else. Someone passed the window carrying a tray of something to eat and the smell of good things to eat came to Tom. just this whiff made him the more hungry. He had had nothing to eat since yesterday morning. Oh he must have something. He went to the window and stood close against it. One of the children saw him and called, Daddy, Daddy, look. Something is at the window. Tom went to the door. Blame the ancestors! He would have something to eat. He could never do anything to pay back the cruel people if he died now. Surely begging could not be a sin when it was a necessity. He scratched at the door. i'Me-ow, Me-ow, he wailed, and scratched again and again. The man came to the door. Hello, kitty. Mother of all things, it's a cat, but what a cat! Are you hungry, kitty?'l Mother came bringing something to eat in a pan and placed it on the floor. Tom sniffed it. Yes it was milk. He began to drink it and was so glad to get a taste of something to eat that he did not know when the man pushed him into the room and closed the door. In fact he knew nothing until he had finished the milk and licked the pan clean. He then looked around. The other cats were nowhere to be seen. The man had sent them to their beds in the barn a long time before Tom had finished his supper. Now the man came and stroked Tom's fur. Do you want to go to bed now, old boy? he asked. Calling to Tom, he led the way to a warm box which had been placed behind the warm heating stove for him. Tom crawled into it. How comfortable everything was. He did not mind when the little children petted him half friendly, half afraid. He began to purr that low growly purr that a lover of cats recognizes and loves. It is an ideal characteristic of a Tom, and Tom was a real Tom. Soon he fell asleep. He was sure of a place to sleep at least for one night and he was sure that he had never been so happy. But the next morning the other three cats had to be reckoned with. All of them seemed over-anxious to inform Tom that this was not his home. Young Tom seemed the most furious of all. P-p-pst,', he said. You do not belong here. Miss Kitten also took her brother's side. But old Mrs. Kitten seemed to rather like the stranger cat. He was really a very handsome cat so it was no wonder! She reprimanded her children for treating the stranger so rudely. The little kittens found out that Tom wasn't such a bad companion after all. Tom always slept behind the heating stove and was the favorite of the family. Everybody liked him and he was a very good help to Mrs. Kitten in ridding the barn of mice, especially after Young Tom was killed on the railroad. Miss Kitten apparently did not care much about catching mice, but left it to the expert catcher, Tom. But such happiness cannot last forever. Tom enjoyed two years, filled to the brim with happiness. Then they thought it necessary to quit farming and move to the city. Of course, no cats would be allowed. The morning Tom watched the car slowly dis- appearing down the hill he had once come up, he was just as unhappy as when we first saw him. Why did people always leave him? Why did they always drop him off from their cars? W'ould Torn ever find anyone of whom he could be sure, sure that they would not at some unexpected time drop him off from their cars? He wondered. He wasn't alone this time to be sure, but there was no doubt but that he was just as miserable. Mrs. Kitten and Miss Kitten lay on the porch near Tom. He decided to lie down, too, and take a nap in the warm sunshine. Bur he knew that he would always be a tramp.

VIOLA LOESEKE, '31 Whims and Fantasies PART ONE One day not long ago, becoming weary of the rush and movement of the modern world pictured on my Visual Screen, I sought peace among the dust and cobwebs of the attic. In the midst of the usual confusion, I noticed an old trunk, its lid partly open, filled with books and papers. I raised the lid and took up a notebook which I opened curiously. I found it was a report of the last meeting of the Class of 1931. Someone in the long ago bet me a coke that I couldn't take down everything that happened. Of murfe I took him up on it, and this is what I read: June 3, 1931. The Class of 1931 held its last meeting in the Auditorium, to talk over plans for the future. The Class was highly pleased with itself, and President Duncan had some dilliculty in getting order. After rapping energetically with the gavel, he called: Pleaz.te come to order. You act like Freshmen! When the Class finally settled down to business, Mr. Duncan stated the purpose of the meeting. We think it would be a very good idea to form some sort of an organiza- tion, so We won't drift apart as so many other classes have done. Therefore, we have decided to have a Trust. Seems to me a class of our ability ought to be quite successful. As umal, there was no discussion of the subject, and we voted for it unanimously. Alvin Luebbers rose and said: I consider the plan worthy of our attention, and after due consideration, I move that the Class of 1931 form a Trust for the Investigation and Solution of Perplexing Problems of the Modern Universef, Motion was unanimously carried except for one dissenting voice but we all knew that Hodge merely wanted to be contrary. Someone nominated Bill Moore, the Ladies, Manu for President, and much to his embarrassment, he was elected. The other oHicers were: Vice-President, Dorothy Stone, Secretary, Fern Eastman, Treasurer, Norman Marshall. It was true that Norman said his motto was to get money and blow itl' but it was hoped that Fern could keep his accounts straight. President Duncan appointed Don Willman a committee of one to provide places and amusements for all entertainments of the Trust, Don having proved himself a chairman fully able to get along without the assistance of his committee. Carter appointed a committee on Exploration of Unknown Worlds, consisting of Darwin Rust, Chairman, Viola Loeseke, Olin Piercy, jane Hiltabrand, and Alvin Luebbers. Due to public demand, a committee on the Object of the Tree Sitting Craze was appointed with Mildred Glass as Chairman. The rest of the committee was comprised of Robert Read, Ruth Hart, Frank Henderson, and Marie Iery. 117 W., , . -f,--4-f-A V -A-V--Y-h ,- gg 'Q' ft f ' A . .. KP . .... gif? ,.... ,.., -. . 'N' i l Ill l l I l l l i I l 5 I l i 1 I i l I I i 1 l l r ll 1 1 1 l 4 l I I l let The committee on XVoman, a Mysteryl' was J. J. Hallett, Chairman, jesse Good- heart, Edwin Rakow, Alfred Frisch, and Carter Duncan. This committee was to try to solve some of the perplexing questions concerning certain rights which woman takes, and also to discover the difference between rights and privileges. Charlotte Jackson was Chairman of the committee on Metamorphising Men. Her committee was composed of Anna Grethy, Frances Elfstrand, jean Wilder, and Dorothy Larison. Their work was to aid men in attaining an unassuming manner and a habit of generosity. Charlotte immediately decided to go on a lecture tour. The committee on Pre-Nuptial Expenditures consisted of Leah Northrup, Chairman, Doris Ehrlich, Guida Briggs, and Ruth Lemme. Their purpose was to inform the modern lover of the correct amount to spend on sweethearts, according to the Revised Edition of Shirley Kennel's Book of Etiquette. It was further hoped this would bring back prosperity. The committee on Instruction of our Pedagogues was composed of Wilbur Clamon, Chairman, Robert Ritchie, Herbert Hanner, Phil Hooton, and Charles Helm. Enough said! Because of the expenses of these committees, a theatrical troupe consisting of Kent Thiel, Phyllis Cooper, Eugene Albrecht, Marylouise Wright, and Dorothy Ellis was formed to foster aesthetic dramatics. Phil Hooton sprang to his feet and cried: ':Mr. President, I move that we all work diligently until 1951, then let's hold a big convention at-at-say, at Danvers, and have reports and everything! Someone objected to Danvers on account of its lack of size. Phil insisted that by 1951, Danvers would be larger than Bloomington, its future being assured because it was the home town of the A. B. C. Boys fArgo, Buescher, and Cookey So it was decided that all members, physically, mentally, and financially able, should meet in Danvers in 1951. The meeting was adjourned and with many good wishes we separated. How long ago that meeting had been! Twenty-four years! Four years ago the great convention of the Trust was held. As I sat there on the attic floor, recalling the good, old daysj' I remembered that Fern was the secretary of the Trust. Grabbing my goggles and helmet I hurried to the roof, and was soon speeding in my monoplane towards the hospital. Fern had become an Aide, and was now at the head of the Governmental Hospital. As I waited in the reception room until Fern was free to see me, I glanced about, my mind still on our last class meeting. What miraculous changes had taken place in a few short years! A mufHed buzz informed me that Fern was waiting for me. LOUISE MUXFELD, '51. PART Two When Louise came and asked me about my old Secretary book, I was delighted. She had been appointed Dictator of Mesapotamia, and it pleased me to learn that she had not forgotten our happy school days and the great convention. I immediately hunted up my book, and we began to read the minutes of the meeting. Wednesday, june 1, 1951. The great convention of the gigantic Trust was held in the spacious and richly endowed Assembly Hall of the organization at Danvers, Illinois. On the first day, a reception was held at which one hundred and thirty were present. The Address of Welcome was given by Mr. Willman, who was the entertainment committee. In a lengthy speech, he described the buildings and grounds which he had purchased for us, and bade us all a hearty Welcome. 118 After twenty long years of separation, friends greeted friends. Oh! Time and Change! What a difference a few years can make! In spite of changes, the ties of friendship were as strong as ever. Thursday, june 2, 1951. When we reached the Assembly Hall, the President had not yet arrived. He could not he found, so Miss Stone took the chair. Before making her inaugural address, she sent Olin Piercy in search of our lost president. After her address, which was received with great applause, the Treasureris report was called for. Mr. Marshall, with pompous stride, proceeded to carry his 2-43M pounds to the front of the room. All were silent as he started to speak Qthey all knew how money could slip through his fingetsj. Well, folks, he began. 'il haven't skipped the country with your money-I haven't had a chance. The Secretary watched every cent that passed through my hands.

She said her committee on the Tree Sitting Craze had worked as one on the task assigned to them. They had studied hours, burning the midnight oil, but could come to no definite decision because Marie Iery and Frank Henderson could not agree. Within the last year, however, through the efforts of Ruth and Robert, the members had unanimously agreed that the craze was merely a new mani- festation of Darwinis Theory. We were all astounded at the unusual amount of wisdom the members of this committee must possess in order to arrive at such a conclusion. With this report, the day's work ended. Friday, june 3, 1951. On this day we heard from Leah Northrup. Leah in the bloom of spinsterhood, gave her report in a convincing manner. She proved to us that a young man should never spend more than he can get his hands on. Two of the members had experimented, that they might find if the theory was practical. We appreciated the extensive investiga- tion of these ladies. Dorothy then called on the committee for the Exploration of Unknown Worlds. Viola Loeseke graciously volunteered to give this report. She told us of an expedition they had made to Pluto, which no one had ever before visited. She said that the in- habitants of this planet were winged people, and she had conceived a plan for making the people in the United States winged. She informed us that Darwin had fallen in love, and had stayed there, but she, Olin, and Alvin Luebbers had come back to earth. She also told us that jane had accepted a position in the glass factory at Yuton, blowing glass tubes. Wilbur Clamon came in the door just as Miss Stone called for a report from his committee. Wilbur reported that his committee had been very successful. They had thoroughly reformed school teachers by means of a correspondence course. Prominent among these were Mr. Chester, who had been cured of his absent-mindedness through a course designed for those who stammer, and Mr. Kirby, who no longer spends the first period getting lab. material ready for the experiment. Saturday, june 4, 1951. J. J. was anxious to give his report, so we heard from him as soon as we had assembled. He admitted that his group had been unable to solve the problems assigned to them. They had made an extensive study of the subject, and had been unable to determine why a woman says Because, and why she says No, when she means Yes. 119 .. . .. -. -.,.,,,,.g. i , ix. ' . . - I Miss Stone stood up before had taken his seat, and called for a report from Miss jackson. Before Charlotte had a chance to comply, .Mr. Moore was ushered into the room by the triumphant Olin. Bill addressed us briefly, he said he had been so absorbed in the pleasures of peanut-growing that he had forgotten about the convention. So with good wishes for a successful crop, we sent Bill back to his peanuts. Charlotte had grown impatient and began with her report immediately following Billys exit. We were told that her committee was famous throughout the civilized world, but their work had not been accomplished to their satisfaction. They had worked hard, but to no avail. They had decided that men are hard to tame, and that if each woman takes one to manage, that is quite enough. XWe were surprised to learn that Anna Grethey had resigned from active membership, and is now busy raising Green saplings. The Theatrical Troupe gave a most satisfactory report. All original members were still active, and the troupe had made a large amount of money for the Trust. In the evening, they presented the well finished and popular drama All prosperous in the Business World. Kent Thiel was the handsome hero, and Phyllis Cooper played opposite him as the charming heroine. Eugene was perfectly marvelous as the villain! The troupe was voted a perfect success. Sunday, June 5, 1951. In the morning, we listened to an eloquent sermon by Reverend Hougham. This was a fitting and proper end to our great convention. When it was found that so few of the perplexing problems had been solved, a motion was made and carried to the effect that the Trust be passed on to the juniors, hoping they might profit by our experience and make this, like the Aegis, a Bigger and Better Tran! FERN EASTMAN, '31, The Girl and Boy of Today The other day I came across an old magazine belonging to my grandmother. I read it with many smiles to myself. Do you know that in that magazine it was predicted that the younger generation was coming to no good end! Why it used almost the same words that I found in a recent book the other week. Have the elders of each generation always been shaking their heads and murmuring? Can't they see by all the laws of logical thinking that we have been forced to use in Geometry, Physics, History, and English that their predictions were false and have never come true. In the next breath they say, What progress there is in the world today, in school attendance, in High Schools, and in Colleges, and how capable boys and girls are,',-Who brought this about? But then these elders have never looked over the class of '31. FRANCES ELFSTRAND, '31, Holding Down the Radiators Let's go up on third, maybe we can rind one there. O. K. I hope we canf' Who, what, why, when, and wherej' I questioned. Oh, of course, I understand now. I really do not know what we students of B.H.S. would do if it were not for those blessed radiators, which not only serve the purpose of transmitting heat by the vapor system frefer to Modern Physics by Dullj but also furnish a very substantial leaning-post to anyone looking for just that thing. All the way from two to ten may be seen clustering about their inviting atmosphere of congeniality, some reading and studying, some watching and commenting on the various groups who stroll or rush by, and others, oblivious to their surroundings, keeping their affections warm. 120 ?...,,f5f9:i.geQg Y .. - .,K:.T,, H 'i'fm'f7 -7 I- Ti ffffsl is A' W - A' fe' W , H .

Surely, Fifth Avenue, in all her glory, could not hope to surpass these, rambling past the radiators, who so steadfastly and accurately follow the whims and caprices of Dame Fashion. Truly, it is a revelation to observe the marvelous creations of the ingenious Dame, and the pride of those who don them. Perhaps Main Street would be a fitting epithet for that famed second floor, graced by such well-known scenery as the Bulletin Board, the office and company, the Library, Miss Inman's room, and other places of interest, or, maybe, of fear and dread. When one has secured a place by a radiator, then he has attained the great privilege and joy of observing the students of B.H.S. in their true guise. May the radiators forever be an institution at B.H.S., for they are vitally funda- mental to the importance of the all-around education of the student. PHYLLIS COOPER, '31. Genuine llevvels As I walked down the street of high school years I stopped in the shops along the way to obtain the jewels I was seeking. In the first half of my journey I chose gems from among those in the show cases of the buildings near to my path. But alas, after two years of searching I found often that my diamonds were merely paste, and the rubies which I had prized highly only glass, synthetic, not real gems. Thus I learned that my judgment was superficial, I had made acquaintances, not friendships, my joys had been selhsh. It was then I found a large black stone blocking my pathway. To move the rock of despair, for that was the name of the stone, was a stupendous task. However, I was successful because of the aid I received from some who had traveled the same route years before who had returned to help strayed wayfarers. Beyond the huge obstacle was a very small stone, an opal, signifying hope and predicting a change. I picked up the gem, the first genuine one of my collection, and with a lighter heart I continued on my way. As I proceeded the difficulties increased yet my determination to follow the road to the end became greater. Again, I passed shops where gems were shown but profiting from my first experience I no longer chose my wares from the foremost displays but sought back in the dark corners. The various jewels were not numerous but the diamonds sparkled more brightly, the ruby shone with a purer fire and among the emeralds were scattered pearls. I advanced, ever adding to my collection. Often I was tempted to make my choice from the show-case but always the remembrance of my previous dis- aster drove me to the less frequented rooms of the shops. At last armed with the real jewels of a deeper knowledge, wisdom, true friends and the pleasures of service I neared the end of my journey. Instead of the path stopping, it branched off into many direc- tions. Before beginning one of these I visited a connoisseur of jewels to see which of my gems I should discard and which I should carry with me. As I suspected, not all my stones were perfect, however, I had learned to judge the real from the imitation. This power would become more valuable as I journeyed further for on all the paths leading from high school years were many shops from which I should procure more jewels to add to the collection I had started. MILDRED GLASS. just Imagine Eagerly he reached for the dial. This was the first time he'd been alone with his invention since he had perfected it. He had induced his nephew to remain home from school in order to help him. He called this plaything of his Cacophodial. With it he could listen into any conversation, no matter where it was being held. Today he was going to try out his Cacophodial in the school. He pressed a button and turned a white dial. A voice, apparently coming from nowhere, said: 121 . :flew ' . -we--------M it 5 ff., r at 2 3 e ' ' 'W' ' ,4N Y... .a tim -MH W ,-H ---v ll M V I. l.4 I have some important announcements to make.

After waiting until the students had had time to reach their classes, he moved the dial a little. Now when I was in Cornell? That's Miss Inman. She's always telling about her experiences at Cornell. They're very interesting too. A little switch of the dial and Where did I leave my matches? That sounds like Mr. Chester. He's always forgetting something. Uncle jim pressed another button and a deep gruff voice was heard. I was under the impression- 'lThat's Schedel. It's a pet phrase of his. As he switched the dials again, they heard a voice saying with fervor, Think! Miss Monroe. She startles you so that you couldn't help but think. Another manipulation of the dials. Will all who are not here, please raise their hands? That must be Miss Williams. She sure is keenf' , As he pressed another button, a stern voice was heard. I meant just what I saidf' Oh boy, that's Miss Campbell. Another turn and You're so pathetically young. I get the biggest kick when Miss Cash says that. As Uncle jim and his nephew experimented with the numerous dials they heard another voice. Any questions? Everything clear? Miss Parker certainly knows her Latin. Last summer she went abroad on the Virgil trip. Talk about bringing honor to B.H.S.? He pressed another button. Oh, yes. That's Miss Nettleton, one of the commercial teachersf, Fifth hour was over. The students were going home for lunch. Shh! Illl tell you a secret. Uncle jim is having his Cacophodial patented so that the alumni can listen in' when they have nothing else to do. JEAN WILDER, '31, Why, Indeed? Honorable Principal Goodier: Ladies and gentlemen, and other students, also teachers: I have come before you Qnot after youj this truly noteworthy day in order to take up with you, for a few moments, the scientific study of a little-noted and sadly neglected matter which has occupied much of my attention during the last four years. My subject is one, I am sure, of deepest interest to each and every one of you. It concerns the shameful negligence fby persons known but wisely unmentionedj of three highly im- portant machines, originally created for meritorious labor, but now pining away for lack of attention on the study hall walls of a large, well-known institution of learning. Need I tell you more plainly? I am referring to the most unusual, and certainly unnecessary, idleness of study hall clocks! Many questions arise at their mention. Who put them there? Why? When? Who stopped them? What for? How? Why did each one stop at twelve-thirty? And so on. But questions can't and won't solve the problem. Letls argue! 122 We are told to be industrious in study hall. Good examples are splendid in- centives. And yet in each study hall, a glaring example of downright laziness is promi- nently displayed! Is that sensible? We are told not to let any good talent that we have, be neglected. But those good clocks that the study halls have-well, their hands remain still in motionless movement and that, I think, spells Neglect with a capital And if, fand pardon me for even supposing so absurd a thingy they who stopped them, thought that thus more time would be applied to study and less to clock-gazing, surely they have seen their mistake by now. The fellow, who before watched the clock, now asks his fellow-sufferer the hours, minutes, and seconds. So instead of increasing industriousness, the stopping of the clocks has actually decreased that virtue! Is it a question of frnance? We have a remedy for that! If each ten people in a smdy hall were asked to furnish a penny, a can of oil could be purchased! Simple enough! And why set the clocks at twelve-thirty anyway? Even if for some inexplicable reason, the authorities must have the tickers at rest why not set them at eleven-forty seven f11:47j or three-twenty-one f3:21j. Think of the thrill of pleasure fmomentary, of course, but still a thrillj we would get if five minutes after eighth hour had begun and the clock said three-twenty-one f3:21j. Oh Boy! Some thrill! Oh faculty, call to mind your own youthful days! Lend a kind ear to our pleadings! Ponder carefully our Declaration of Dependence. We, the student-body of Bloomington High School, in order to have a more perfect conception of the time, to aid the time-seekers, to eliminate the common offense, to pro- mote the general welfare, and to secure the blessings of rhythmic ticking to ourselves and the Frosh, do humbly beg and earnestly hope to obtain our request for perfect-to-the- second-time in the study halls of Bloomington High School. ALVIN J. LUEBBERS, '31, The Lure of the Unafttainalble The lure of the unattainable is without true explanation. Man has tried for ages to find the answer but has succeeded only in producing a series of examples tangent in but one point-that all men are subject to its spell. Summed up, the lure of the unattainable is a natural greed created, at first, by want, actual want, when the unattainables were the basic necessities of life, and later by the desire of one man to show his superiority to all other men. This enticement stalks about flaunting victory, as a toreador flashes his red cape before a bull. It shouts always, I am victor, try to conquer me. Always we are ready to take this challenge, to try to defeat this power. Always when we see victory, it laughs and springs up with another field for us to conquer, yet another, until at the end we stand empty-handed, reaching on, yet looking back, profiting by memories of the past, but still not quite victorious. This same mysterious power creates and destroys. It was this which told Columbus to sail, that which sped the Puritans across the water into the wilderness, that which whispered over the mountains, Come, just a little farther. I am here, and then ran on, fording the Mississippi, stepping o'er the Rockies, and on to the sunny shores of the Pacific, that which carried man into the most bloody struggle, the greatest slaughter of man ever recorded--the World War. Poor men hand to their children their own unattainables, rich men squander to gain their unattainables, but these are not tangible. This power is Heeter than air, stronger than life, more magnetic than gravity, more mysterious than death, more desirable than happiness. 123 -.- I A I f N f 1 1 I .E isa l U .V 5 1 5.

K . MARTHA YOUNG, '31. Awake in a Pullman I had always considered myself one of those few, fortunate souls who is blessed with an over-exaggerated ability to sleep wherever she might be, and under whatever circum- stances to which she may be subjected. However, I awoke to the fact, or rather I stayed awake to the fact that in one predicament I am incapable of attracting the slightest attention of that fabled and notoriously elusive little fellow with his bag of magic sand. This fact was made perfectly, indisputably clear to me when I experienced my first night in a pullman. Of course, in my unsophistication and ignorance of the ways of the upper berths I was unduly excited over the change in my usual mode of sleeping, and, trustingly anticipating my coming pleasure, I climbed into my berth, and happily closed the green curtain that hung across the front of it. I do not know who coined the expression ignorance is bliss, but he expresses my sentiments exactly. I lay for some time, contented and comfortable. This was my nearest approach to sleep, and I rather pitied those sensitive souls who are forever complaining of restless nights on a train. The lights had been extinguished by now and I heard the regular breathing of a few of my fellow companions that told me they were asleep. Now I shall go to sleep, I thought. I closed my eyes, but as I did so a few, uncomfortable and obtrusive humps in my berth mattress seemed to grow to the propor- tion of mountains and I turned on my side to avoid them. More humps! Can't say I admire pullman mattresses, I thought. Hmmm, something wrong at the foot of the berth. Legs running into a seemingly resistless wall. Surely the berth isn't too short for me? I'll see-no-no! My wall was merely a very thick, very heavy, very woolly blanket rolled up in bolster-fashion. Not knowing what to do with the thing, I disgustedly unfolded it and threw it over myself. I was already too warm and the blanket was undoubtedly one hundred per cent pure wool. Somewhere in the coach an optimistic soul began to snore-regularly and ceaselessly, like a drummer beating upon a bass drum. I found myself keeping time with it. One- twog one, two, three. One-two, one, two, three. Two slow beats, three fast beats. Dear! I believed I was getting thirsty. Yes, I was-dreadfully thirsty! How can I go about getting a drink? I must call the porter, of course, where is that bell? Here, I have it-no, no, that's not it--merely an iron bolt. Can't find it! Oh, dear, I've never been so thirsty in my life! The effects of the blanket were now forthcoming. Dear, isnlt it hot? I wonder if the other people are hot? Blankets are such silly things. One-two, one, two, three. My goodness! Will that person never quit snoring? There's the whistle. Wonder what it's for? Train's slowing down-stopping. Must be a town. What's all that noise outside? Baggage men, I suppose. Why, oh why. isn't there a window in this thing? All ,B-oo-ard! Train's starting now. Ouch, my head! What a stupid engineer not to know how to start a train without jerking it like that. And so throughout the night! At last the light began to creep into the train and I heard people moving about. The horrid night was over, and I had one less dreadful experience of my life to face.

These pioneers wished to give their children a chance to have an education as good as might be obtained in the larger eastern cities. It was through this desire for better education that Mr. L. Foster established a school in Bloomington in 1834 which was known as the High-schooln or Seminary This first high school was kept up by Mr. Foster until 1857. In 1857 Abraham Lincoln was employed by the Board of Education to secure a writ compelling the council of Bloomington to levy a tax to pay for schools and their upkeep. This tax was secured and in 1858 Blomingtonls first public high school was com- pleted at a cost of six thousand dollars. The school was located in the fourth ward. Its first teacher was Mr. E. P. Clarke. The second teacher, Mr. H. M. Kellogg, was killed in the civil war. The first graduating class, that of 1864, consisted of two members. While this was going on, Bloomington was steadily increasing in size and in 1868 it was found necessary to erect a new school. This new building was located at the corner of Monroe and Oak streets. In 1895 Bloomington had become so much larger that it was again thought necessary to build a new school building, that which is now known to us as the Jefferson School. The next and last step in the progress of Bloomington High School was the building of the present Bloomington High School building. So, we leave the history of B.H.S. which has risen from the small private school of 1834 with its one teacher to the high school of 1931 with its large faculty of fifty-two, and an enrollment of 1290. MAXINE REHKER. A Banquet lDelLuxe What do you think of a banquet with such notables as Duke Goodier, Premier Kurtz, Herr Kirby, Lady Inman, Baroness Smith, and a number of notorious princes, in- cluding Prince Rust, and there was also present our most charming Mademoiselle Stone? Iill tell you it was a wow! And boy, did we have eats--freckled-faced chicken, smashed potatoes, greamed lavy, and all that goes with it. Of course at the finis of the eats, we had to have our picture took. This was under the direction of Baroness Smith, with the assistance of Herr Kirby. We thought we were in screenland. Such direction! Well, anyway the first time the gunpowder didn't explode. fWe were thankfulj The second time the pluto plate was forgotten. But when the canon didn't go ofi' the third time, Duke Goodier's funnybone was tickled and he yelled out, Get Chesterln What a break! And did we laugh. The fourth try-pop went the weasel. Four times! Not bad, though, for ameetours. But when that dofunny did bust, the air was filled with smoke. Really we thought we set the clern building on fire. Gee, we panted for breath, and Lady Inman tried swim- ming through it. I'll never forget that. She couldn't find the life saver, and gave a terrific yell, Help! All the princes rushed to Lady Inman and rescued her, coming up for the third time. After raising much whoopie, we thought we'd better beat it before the cops pinched us. Thus to each other, Aufwiedersehen! EDWIN RAKOW, ,3l. 125 3 V 'S Souls I find it nice sometimes to be alone-just alone. Alone in my room with books, with pictures on the walls, with windows thru which to gaze at the blue heavens spotted with fleecy clouds. just alone to think of my friends, my pals good and true. Alone to think of love- love toward my mates, my school, my teachers, my parents, everyone. Alone to think of bygone days and those to come. Days which hold my future in their hands. Alone to think of my ambitions. Alone to think of life and of God. Yes, at times I like to be alone-just alone. EDWIN RAKOW, '31, Old Fords Did you ever ride in one of those dilapidated, open-air contraptions that made Henry Ford famous? If you haven't you don't know what you've missed. If you have- well, youive probably formed your own ideas on the subject. However, in no way can one receive so many and varied benehts. For instance: when you are riding contentedly down the street in a 191.4 Model T, the abundance of fresh air fand there is plenty of it, believe mej is very beneficial. Open air and good health go hand in hand. Then, too, in a-well, I suppose I can call it a car, of the above description, the occupants are always the objects of good-natured grins and good-natured comments. In fact, every one is especially good-natured when the so-called car refuses to go-excepting perhaps the poor fellows who have to push and the drivers in the cars behind. But to get back to my subject. You never can tell. Maybe some day you'll apply for a position and the boss will say, Aren't you one of the boys who ride up and down the street here in an old worn-out tin can on wheels? Yes? I thought so. Surely weid be glad to have you employed here. We are always looking for fellows who can start their work right on a cold morning, who have plenty of ambition and who are not afraid of ridicule. And too, this type of Ford teaches one the qualities of patience, fortitude, and self-control in a very ellfective way. When school is out at noon and a fine lunch is waiting for you at home and THE CAR WON'T START, it takes all three of these qualities and then some to keep the uttered language to suit the occasion. And last but not least, girls like to ride in old Fords too, and-well, maybe I'd better close. Thank you one and all for your kind attention. ALVIN LUEBBERS, '31, Farewell Bloomington High Well, B.H.S., here I go. I suppose you will' not miss me much but I certainly will miss you. I've tried to carve my name in your hall of fame. I know I did not succeed very well but I did try and, at least, my honest attempt is as good as another's. Now that I am on the threshold, I'm not so sure I want to be pushed on into the cold world by the eager hoard of young freshies. When I look and see the uncountable difli- culties that I must surmount now without your help it makes shivers run down my back, and I forget everything you taught me. 'Tis true this is what I asked for and worked for all these years, freedom to think and act for myself. I humbly thank you for showing me the right way to think and act. I hope I will not fail but, in success or failure, I will remember B.H.S. and my dreams, ideals and conhdence while there. IVIARGARET ENGLISH, 'SL 126 A Chinese Legend y I suppose most of you know that there are very, very few handsome Chinese maids and men in existence. As for me, I have never seen one, and believe I never shall. I had better tell you why. A long, long time ago, oh, probably two or three thousand years ago, in China, there lived a beautiful Chinese maiden, whose name was Sa Jea Bem. She was tall and slim and as graceful as a swan. Her hair was soft and fine, and it shone about her head like a mist of gold. Here eyes were blue and her cheeks can be compared to nothing, for there is nothing, on this earth, that could match their beauty and purity. This maiden attained and kept her youthful beauty by her noble living. She dwelt in a gleaming white castle high on a rosy mountain which overlooked the clear blue sea. Now this Earth Goddess had a strange power, the power of making good people beau- tiful by looking upon them. But if the person whom she looked upon had not been good, the goddess would die immediately. On account of this, the thousand Lovely Maidens were kept to prevent unworthy persons from seeing the Earth Goddessf' And their duty was well done, I can tell you. They had servants scattered over the country to watch the applicants. Even your own mother might be a servant of the Lovely Maidens for all you knew. Now there was one respected young man in China who was very jealous of Sa jea Bem because she was the only person who was regarded with more awe and reverence than he. So he determined to destroy her. In his heart the jealousy and hatred of her grew, but outwardly he lived a noble life, and was one day summoned by a Lovely Maidenn to see Sa jea Bem. By chance, a homely aged man and a wrinkled, old woman sailed with him in the Lagoon Boatn to the island of the Earth Goddess. Both the man and his wife successfully met the test and were made beautiful. Then the Goddess turned to look at the other man. Immediately their gazes met, she fell dead. The Lovely Maidens who had been watching the test uttered low cries and shrank back. Some turned to flee and dropped dead. Others seemed simply to wilt and fell silent forever. The jealous young man who had caused the disaster, rushed from the castle to escape, and in his haste, plunged over the cliff, and was beaten upon the rocks by the angry waves until he died. The man and woman last made beautiful, came slowly down the mountain and sailed sadly away in the Lagoon Boat. When they were not more than a mile away, the sea rose and covered the mountain. But the gods were kind and willed that a gift which no other persons possessed should be given to this couple. It was that the children of the man and woman who last came away from the Island would be models of perfection. So when they reached home, they were amazed to find their children handsome. Perhaps they would have been more amazed had they known that this beauty would be carried through the ages. So, if you ever see a charming Chinese person, you will know that, far back among his ancestors, were once the man and woman last made beautiful by Sa Jea Bem, the Earth Goddess. MARGARET EGAN, '32, Slip of a Slipper It was the first night I had been out of the shop. I was really very good looking, being fine black satin pumps. I was quite proud of myself and was not at all surprised when I found a home in such a short time. But alas, I did not like my new mistress! So, the first night when she wore me to an elaborate ball, I pinched her feet so that she could hardly dance. I was stepped on so much during my first night among people that I was quite disgusted with this new life. 127 A 'A A 'c ' 5 M , Q , '--V iw, W ,1. -'rg V .......,-.,..,.-,.r .,.. V: j fi-11,3 1 , But after I quit pinching her feet, my mistress wore me more, and I came in con- tact with so many nice rugs that I decided my new life wasn't so bad after all. Soon I began looking shabby and worn out. Finally my mistress, after having worn me while scrubbing and doing the house work, tossed me into a far corner of a closet where I stayed for several days. just as I was beginning to believe that I was doomed to die in this dark corner, my mistress took me from the closet and tied me to a cord fastened to the spare tire on an auto in the driveway. Then I suffered for all the pinching I did that hrst night. I was banged and bumped over rough pavements on the back of a car containing newlyweds! At last the cord snapped and I landed in the middle of the street where I remained until morning. But, as the new day dawned, a little pup pounced upon me and dragged me down a dirty alley until he found the most suitable place to bury me. After digging a deep hole, I was lowered into the black hole to see no more of the world. MAR JORIE HILLRICHS, '32. Day by Day There is an old proverb Never put off till tomorrow what you can do todayl' and it is the slogan of a few people. Yet many of us say Oh, I can do that tomorrow. I can finish that when I have more time. What day is there that has more than twenty-four hours? Or less? No one has yer succeeded in finding one, nor in making one, nor will he ever succeed in doing either. We must finish every day and be done with it. If we have given the best we are capable of, we cannot help it by worrying about it. Undoubtedly some absurdities have crept in, forget them. After they have been done, they are done-and no amount of worrying will ever do them a particle of good. We should give the best we have and rest assured that the best will come back to us. Tomorrow is a new day, pure and undefiled, begin it well, with a spirit too high' and serene to be cumbered by your old trifles and absurdities. Do not mar this perfect day, which comes to every one, pure and clean, with a moment's waste, of time upon the yesterday. JULIA BRANDEAU, '32. The Faculty I wonder who would dare to write just what they should like about the faculty? Of course, that couldn't be done because you donlt put down exactly what you think-even about your best friends, and our teachers are our friends, aren't they? A good-looking man is preferred by the feminine students, while a good, not too harsh, instructor is demanded by the boys. I think there is a teacher with whom every- body is able to get along in every school, and then there is also one who is just the opposite and disliked by everyone. Another one: the science professor who does not let the girls get out of his classes without practical experiments on electricity and other equally uninteresting phenomena. These are a few of the main types. I have never attended any other high school but I have an idea that there is not much individuality among faculties. There is many a new teacher who will be chosen by students in hope that she has not yet gleaned the secret of the torture of the trade. Most of the teachers could be placed under general heads: understanding, relentless, sympathetic, and comical. There are only a few variations in individuals, but there are some teachers who have out- standing personalities. Of course, one personal opinion of a faculty can not be worth much, but here is mine-take it or leave it. GLEN KLINE, '32. 128 Innominate I was riding along in a new Sockheed-Lirus monoplane one sunny afternoon, with my man Friday, when all at once, a stream of machine gun bullets cut off my tail. Imagine my embarrassment, flying along without a tail on my ship. Well, the plane decided not to continue in that direction. It headed straight down, but I didn't like to go down so fast, especially without a tail, knowing that it would be a rather sudden stop when we reached the earth. I motioned for my man, Friday, to bail out, and, much to my surprise, he did so. I followed him. Too bad, I mused, to let a nice plane like that make a forced landing by itself. That one was worth seventeen thousand. It was painted such a pretty color, too? I was brought out of my meditations rather abruptly. A continuance of this said machine gun fire split my chute through the middle, making it useless. As luck would have it, I was directly over my man Friday's chute, and, in accordance with the law of gravity I descended into it. I lit in the middle, and the chute crumpled up. I went down on Friday's head, knocking him senseless. I grabbed his leg, and finally got the chute filled with air once more. The combined weight of both of us on the one chute caused it to descend faster, and I didnlt have very pleasant dreams for our landing. just then, an open cockpit biplane came diving at us, with machine guns mounted on it. Heavens, where did that fellow think he was, in Chicago? Some one ought to take them away from him and slap his wrists. He finally flattened out, and that brought him directly beneath me, so close that my feet dragged the wing. That gave me an idea. When the second cockpit came by, I dropped into it. Well, well, well,l' I thought. That solves a lot of difficulties. In the first place, Friday will land more easily, in the next place, I can find out the meaning of the miniature air raidf, Who are you, anyway?', I asked my newly-made associate. I'm a Western Union messenger boy, replied the latter, and I have a telegram for you. Since your plane didn't have a radio, and you seemed to be on an endurance flight, I had to resort to this to deliver an envelope. Here he handed me a telegram. I tore open the end and pulled out the folded yellow paper. It read: Plane No. SL7594-W, delivered February 20 last, price seventeen thousand dollars fil17,000j, must be paid for by August 16, at four P.M.g otherwise suit will be instigated for payment of bill and interest at ten f1Oj per cent. Dependent Aircraft Corporation. August sixteenth-that's today! What time is it? I looked at my wrist-watch. Three forty-five! I'll have to rush if I donlt want to lose seventeen hundred. Do you have a chute in this ship? I asked the boy beside me. No, he replied. This is a non-capsizeable craft. Oh, well, it doesn't matter. Chutes reduce landing speed anyway. Say, will you do me a favor and fly over the Dependent Aircraft building? All right, that's just fine. Here we are, well, I'll be seeing you. I threw one leg over the side of the cockpit, when the boy's jaw sagged until his mouth looked like the entrance to a garage. Hey, you can't do that. Don't you know? I stuck my hand in my pocket and pulled out a 53100 bill, I wadded up the bill and stuck it in his mouth to gag him, then I pulled the other leg over, and down I went. The next day I read in the paper that the poor fellow choked to death on the bill, and that the police were looking for the murderer. EUGENE PITTS II, '32. 129 1' A Visitor from Mars Zooming along in my little Q-6-4, which was built especially for flying long dis- tances, I suddenly experienced a slight clogging of the feed line. The left rocket No. 17 from the left tip of the wing began to sputter so I thought I might as well stop and repair it. Without any trouble, I could have stopped in mid-air, but finding no tools to fix the injury to the rocket, I came down to what I thought was a planet named Oxygentia. But, to my amazement, the gravity was much stronger than I had ever felt it before, and, with a thud, I found myself on a strange land. The first humans I met were two optimistic fellows, talking about what a great world it was after all. Immediately I knew I was on the earth! That odd place I had heard so much about! I decided, since I could not fly the broken plane, to look the place over. I walked down the long narrow ways called streets, I believe, when the first structure to meet my gaze was a large building. Not seeing any signs demanding an admission price, I entered. Crossing a small hallway, I opened another door. My first opinion was that it was a place of worship, for many people, mostly boys and girls were assembled here. My opinion changed instantly. A youth, clad in white trousers and holding in his hand a large instrument, into which he shouted, began making some crazy motions. He shouted to the people: Chee chee chee-chaww chaw chaw chaw--rah rah rah-blosky blosky blosky- ha ha ha-yea team-smack em-fight em-box em-mashem'-yosko-yosko-rah rah rah! I was in the crazy house! Turning, I made my way from the insane institution as fast as my lower extremities would carry me! Of course, this did not give me a very good impression of the people of the earth, but I decided they could not all be like that. Yet, a sign above the door read Bloom- ington High Schoolf' Shrugging my shoulders, I walked on to explore the surroundings. Not far ahead was a high board fence, about ten feet in height. Thinking that I should like to in- vestigate this, I did a high jump over the fence. fYou see, we people from Mars can do such thingsj Again the first sight of persons brought to my ears more jumbled talk. Going up closer I heard someone say, Lay that old apple out of the lot! Ah, I said to myself, people on a picnic, picking applesf, Since I too liked this fruit, I went through a gate and entered. But in vain did I look for apple trees. For out there on a large plain field were some twenty-odd people. Some had on white suits, some, gray, while two had on dark blue ofiicial looking uniforms. In some large stands, there were many seats occupied by people. If these were more crazy persons, I was leaving! But on second thought, knowing that I should probably never come back to the earth again, I stayed and watched. 'One of them had a rather large looking stick in his hands and each of them had a glove on one of his hands. Then one of them started going through a lot of silly motions. l'Oh, oh,', I said, Here is where I leave. But just as I turned this fellow Qwhom I took, at the time to be another of those persons I had seen in the last buildingj threw a round white object toward the fellow with the stick. The latter swung hard and there was a resounding smack as the ball fwhich I could now tell it wasj sailed out over part of the field. 130 5' 1 3 ,rp-,,,,fff:L-t:-iff K Y- - ...., .t.I..,.-.. .A.. W--. ..M. ...............,n,,f, ef ,W ,j at , . . - I Lat, fri t -We.,gg11g4g.rg..iig::1igigl ,I aagfiiilw ,A'.. - Then came the cries, It's a double! Boy did he smack that agate! Slide, slide! A two bagger! He's trying to stretch it! Hes got the runner trapped between the bags! And, He's stealing third! He's out! I looked about for the police at the mention of stealing, thinking that this man was breaking up the ball game by a theft. But none appeared. This was too much for me and I left by the same fence over which I had entered. Suddenly, I remembered the cause of my presence, so I started back to my ship. Passing a small building, I saw an odd looking car of some kind standing out in front. Several boys were in it and one of them said, This air hose won't work, it's broke. Aw, talk to it, you're full of hot air anyway, was the reply. I noticed one of the tires was down and the boys were trying to inflate it, but I couldnit make any sense to their talk. Another of them shouted, Let Bill sit our on the gas tank, it's nearly empty and he is so 'gassyf Why don't-'I Oh, boy, look at that cookie, he was interrupted. I turned around, looking for the cookie, expecting to see a sweet morsel lying on the sidewalk. But there was none there. All I saw was a very pretty girl walking along the other side of the street. I shook my head and tried to see any comparison between a cookie and this girl. I became so confused, that I started to run and was nearly hit by this strange con- traption of the boys, who were shouting something about Uwhoopief' I didn't stop to see or hear, but took off immediately, even risking Hying with a broken rocket, to get away from that World. Dwrcsnr HERRICK, '35. The History of Humor An author of a recent textbook has copied by courtesy of the Saturday Evening Post a humorous sketch entitled The History of Humor. In this sketch the artist attempted to convey the idea of grotesque humor and its evolution through the ages to the present form. In the first drawing one Neolithic man is shoving a 150 pound boulder off the edge of a bluff onto the sleeping form of another. As the Neolithic was a very hardened and toughened race the 150 pound meant no more to him than a 5 pound rock would mean to us. The Assyrian form of humor shows one Assyrian standing engrossed in conversation with another, while a third comes and kneels behind the second. The climax comes when the first Assyrian pushes the second over the kneeling body of the third. The Egyptian form of humor is next portrayed. One Egyptian suavely offers the other a seat. The other, totally unconscious of his impending doom, sits down heavily on what he thinks is a comfortable seat only to rise with astounding rapidity, for one of his race. The reason he rose so rapidly was because he had sat upon a tack. The next form of humor evolved is that of the late Georgian period. An English nobleman is shown gracefully bowing to her majesty, or whoever it is, he suddenly finds his nose being pushed into the floor due to a mighty kick just underneath the rear of his coat tail, and as there is a lady present he must laugh the joke off and not retaliate. The last evolution is the well-known modern form of humor. The sofa hound very gentlemanly offers the lounge lizard a chair while the siren is an interested onlooker. The lounge lizard unwittingly accepts the chair, and, as is to be expected, descends at the rate of four feet per one-fourth second until he is rudely stopped by the floor. Such is the evolution of humor. LANIER SHELDON, '53. 131 l z 49 ceyt 5 I ' Q.Q---. I, 1.555 Mbflhf r 'i Q.,1fffl.,. QQ1.-.-5,.g, ' The Filling Station In my various peregrinations to the gasoline emporium on the corner I have noticed that the people from every walk of life patronize it. There are the business men in their immaculate tweeds, who seem to be in such a hurry that they depart almost before one is aware of their arrival. There are the loving couples having eyes for none but themselves. The masculine member of the party is usually putting on a line exhibition of one arm driving, but Providence is with them for as truly as if old Dobbin were in command, they safely reach their goal beside the gas dispenser. There are the pedagogues with their scrupulously neat dresses of utilitarian blue and pre-war length, their nose glasses failing to hide alert, observing eyes. Many times the applicants for service are people from the country that produces great bankers, the home of Harry Lauder, who doesn't tell even a joke for nothing. These are easily discernible because they seem fascinated by the gas register. The attendant who gives impartial service to old and young, rich and poor, Austin and Cadillac, is a modern prototype of the age of chivalry. If the prospective purchaser is in a depressed frame of mind, the affable smile and the polished manners of the attendant restore him to his accustomed genial disposition. So gracious is he that as one departs there lingers in the memory a faint suggestion of the charming manners which history tells us were characteristic of medieval times. STANLEY LUCAS, '35. Horses l I-lave Known For as many years as I can recall I have liked horses. First it started with a toy horse on wheels. In my mind's eye I can recall it now. Then it was a fire depart- ment drawn by horses. There were many hours I spent hitching up, going to fires, and returning, unhitched. Then it was a hobby horse. Where didn't I go just in our living room? The horse was a dapple gray. The faster I could make it go the better and one day I was riding so fast and hard that I fell off. That was my first spill and the last for several years to come. Then there was the time when the delivery boys used to let me ride with them for several blocks the length of which I used proudly to hold the reins thinking that I was driving the old horse who positively refused to go any way but in the right direction for his stall. Later, I spent two summers at a boys' camp at Culver, Indiana. I was sorry that I was too young to join the cavalry for it was a cheering sight to see the carefully groomed horses pass in review on Sunday evening during garrison parade. It was because of this desire to ride that I was permitted to spend three summers at another boys' camp in Colorado. It was a treat to be able to ride most of the times although once in a while it was a necessity to ride. We took many long trips, sometimes as much as seventy-five miles in two days. Being a novice, needless to say I had many falls. Whenever one of us fell off, all the rest of the fellow campers would start to sing the Prince of Wales' favorite song, Sailing, Sailing Over the Flying Manefl We also formed a club which we called the Prince of Wales' Club. Only fellows who had fallen or had been thrown off a horse could belong to it. While there are many ways of traveling--by bicycle, auto, train, airplane, and boat, far as I know there is no way to get the thrill that I get from riding a horse. RALPH Fox, '33. 132 Did We Descend from Animals? It has often been said that the human race descended from animals. This sounds foolish, but there must have been some reason for the saying. You are now to be taken to a modern school, and we will decide for ourselves whether or not the maxim is well founded. Who can tell? We may discover some new ideas on the subject. We enter the door and what greet us? Many students, walking about. We see one in particular, who walks up behind another and trips him. The latter's books fall to the Hoot, and the little monkey who did it, sneaks into the crowd, grinning. About half-way down the hall is a group of students. We decide to investigate, and we rind quite an argument in process. On the outside of the crowd, trying to peer in, is a boy stretching his neck until he looks quite odd. Giraffes are said to have necks about as long as twenty feet. To return to the argument. The principal character is bellowing about, with a loud voice, roaring, lion-like at the others. But the chief of the opposition just, Bah-bah- bahs, back at him booing and bahing', the other for no good reason. Why is it that sheep always make noises when together? Here we see two boys talking together. One of them suddenly breaks out in laughter, with a he he he he heh-heh. What a horse laugh that is! As we round the corner we see a group of girls walking arm in arm, talking at the top of their voices. Neither of them can hear the other, on account of the noise. It just seems that they talk as they walk. It reminds us of a flock of geese walking along a road, quacking to their heart's content, saying nothing but just making a noise. Leaning against a radiator is a fellow, who apparently is all in. Owls shouldnit be seen in the daytime and if this boy wants to continue to be a student, he should get to bed sometime, and not continue hooting around all day. Several boys have gathered around the swimming instructor, asking him for a permit to go swimming some hour, when they have a study hall. We thought that fish did most of the swimming-but--we go on. Carrying an armload of books is a clumsy fellow. He bumps into everyone, butting his way through the crowd like a goat. After laughing at him, we look further, trying to see if we can't nnd some one little thing to prove our discussion. Down the hall comes a boy. He is coming with the speed of a deer. He roars some- thing about johnny, being a snake, to steal his girl, and that only a viper would get an A in Latin. And then, as we turn to leave the building, we see two people, one of each sex, holding hands and talking. The remark is made, that they look like love-birds, and if birds can be considered animals, at last, we have found one proof of our statement, that the human race descended from animals. DWIGHT HERRICK, '33, The Back Yard at Dusk It is nearing six o'clock. As I look at the back yard, the quickly gathering gloom renders objects indistinct. Shapes of tall, gaunt trees can be vaguely seen, waving to and fro, in the moaning, sighing wind. From somewhere, crickets and other nocturnal insects have begun their nightly chirping. One by one, stars begin to stand out in the fathomless depths of that black, velvety cloak, called 'lNight. The rising moon casts a spectral reflection upon the slate-roofed garage. A stiff, brisk wind from the north sends the dry, crackling leaves scudding across the yard. The bushes already stripped of their autumn hued leaves, wave their bare branches, which look like the arms of ghosts swinging in despair, to a slow, precise rhythm, like that of a funeral procession,-a rhythm directed only by the wind!

Y Y A Mountain's Majesty The huge, lofty mountain was seated majestically, like a Mahatma on the black, naked earth, sunning his snowy tresses in the fading light of the setting sun. The creeping shadows on his softly gilded crest seemed to play with the quickly dying sun- beams, as they softly steal down the blushing horizon. This large mountain looked far out o'er the world which he had seen so many times before. He swelled his huge masculine chest, and gave a loud unearthly bellow, that set the whole world to shaking, and immense masses of snow came crashing down upon each other, cracking and roaring, bringing brush, trees, and all their plunder with them, drowning out the sound of the master mountain, as he laughed at his trick and praised his almighty strength. Here at his feet now were lying all his pillage and booty that he so brutally acquired. No one could control himg he was master now and forever! The sun, impressed by this act of cruelty, quickly gathered all his little sunbeams and vanished beneath the horizon of the earth to pay a visit to some other land. The mountain loved to sun himself in the nice, warm golden light and let the little sunbeams play in his hair, but now he couldn't, That was one thing he couldn't govern, and how he disliked that! Now came the night. It grew colder and colder as the old mountain gathered his blankets of snow together to make a covering for himself--that huge brute! Soon the snow came down, down, and the mountain huddled up closer to his blankets, until some power besides his own would stop the cold. Thus he stands for ages, taking the things as they come, not as he likes them, fighting his own battles with the rain and cold-never tiring-but ever laughing at his quaint acts of iniquity! LOUISE BITTNER, '54, Making a Parachute Drop I have just climbed out of the rear cock-pit at the aviators' command and here I stand on the exhaust pipe. As I look down I see people, who look like ants, waiting for me to do my daring stunt. All at once I feel a little giddy and sick and almost lose my hold on the plane. I am now receiving last minute instructions as to what to do, and what not to do to get my parachute open. I must jump clear of the plane and then count ten slowly, so that the airplane can get away before the 'chute flies open. My heart is thumping. The sweat is standing on my forehead. The aviator now calls to get ready. jump, he yells loudly, so I can hear. I jump. I clear the plane and go hurling towards old Mother Earth, turning somersaults and handsprings. I look up. I see the plane going higher up, then I look down and see many people. At last I have counted ten. I pull the ripcord. There is a funny swishing sound behind me and then a great silver sheet spreads out and I slow down considerably. I am still some five thousand feet from terra firma. As the 'chute opens, I hear faintly the cheers of the people. All this has taken but a minuteg yet, it seems hours to me and perhaps to them. As I now reach the earth, the wind catches the 'chute and I have to run almost the length of the field in order not to be dragged. People are still cheering and I am happy to think that I made it safely. EARLENE ARNDT, '54. A Rainy Night in Summer I love a rainy night in summer! When you are through with supper and you stack your dishes, you don't hurry at all. The back door is open and you look out into the night.

I PAULINE POYNTER. l ,tu The Circus Who is there that would willingly miss a circus? There is something about even the word circus, an elusive something that draws almost every person to see its wonders.

Although all circuses are much alike, one never tires of the antics of the clowns, the 1 dancing horses and the daring feats of animal trainers and trapeze actors. And then afterwards the doors of the sideshows are always blocked with crowds, eager to see the ' snake charmers, two-headed women, and fire and knife-eating men. A What if one does get shoved and squeezed and stepped on to within an inch of 1 his life and is sick the next day from too many sweets? The circus comes but once a ,- year, and why not join the crowd and forget all your troubles for a few hours? - RUTH DREXLER. . . . l The Young Campers Hey!

Yesterday, we were children. Then the four years upward climb towards the Mountain Top of graduation ex- tended away in the distance. We have reached that goal. It is indeed a worthy one. But we flnd that we are but on the foot- hills of life instead of the Mountain Top, as we had thought. Ahead of us, ever onward and upward, stretches the pathway. Again we say- We are young. We have strength. We have courage. Our heads are up. There o'er fifty fathom deep Sir Patrick and his Scot lords sleep. Higher compliments were never paid Than the squire gave the Nutbrown Mayde. Excalibre we brandished there And snipped Belinda's lock of hair. Though merit wins the soul, charms still strike our sight, Thus many a worm's infected by a phantom of delight. As Piers in vision sees what is to be We watch the lowing herd wind slowly o'er the lea. Sweet Auburn, loveliest village of the plain Oft would many a one detain. A little learning a dangerous thing may be When we see not ourselves as others see. We do not think the cauld, cauld blast unkind When we remember Spring's not far behind. Now Maid of Athens as we part, Give, oh give me back my heart. These in memory will endure As gems of English literature. EVA MERADITH, 31.

O blustering stormy night That opens bowels of earth, That welcomes howling winds. Night, Oh Stygian night, coal black, That welcomes hoots of owls Who wail from tree tops high The doleful songs of woe. Night That steals upon the day. Night- Oh peaceful night That welcomes moon and stars That silvers leaf and grass, That cools the heated brain. Night The balm of aching limbs, The death of day, the sleep of man. Enchanting night of blue That makes one think of love. Night That calls the beast to rest That stills the feathered flock That calms the ocean's Waves. Night, Complacent, calm, serene, That breathes God's Spirit o'er the earth. EDWIN RAKOW, '31, THREE GUESSES! Archimedes, Galileo, Newton, Oh, most etudite scientists! What in comprehensible mysteries Have you left, rolling endlessly like discs? Theorems, formulae, problems and rules, Oh, puzzling, mysterious principles! A maze, interwoven with dire exams To astound and confound the disciples.

Apollo's golden chariot Rides slowly to Hesperian shores, Adorned with crimson colors bright Which change to shades of rose, And then to those of pink, Then fade to rainbow tints and hues Which move the poet's hand, And, too, the artist's brush, Which bid the day farewell, And prove to all the world A God indeed there is! EDWIN RAKOW, '31, SILHOUETTE A dash of color Like a bit of reflected rainbow Dances down the hall. Is it the blithe spirit, the warm Heart or just the little faults That make her so lovable? Thereis a lot of work for an editor-in- chief to do. Smiles always helped work. Friends can't resist a smile. A short shadow on the wall, An imposing youth in brown Strides down the corridor. is..-,.--LL .....4a.e,I., I - . x,. wi-.. ,r i....,.-.-....... ...,..,..,.,,., ...,.,..-,.-,.... ..f ,IN . ......--..,....,. -. .,,....,..,,.. -,..-,...-,,, ,,-was . .,-fl, - Wq ,, - fat- , .,:,.g .,.

MY FIRST IMPRESSION OF AMERICAN LITERATURE I stepped into our English class, 'Specting to study Lit, But everything we've hit 'pon, 'S been everything but it We've studied how the Mayflower, She finally battled through And landed all the Pilgrim fathers- Our ancestors few. An' now we're studying their diaries, An' lovely little notes Of love and hard times too, Some husbands-they wrote. An' next welll study Indians, An' all the things they grew Then maybe in some week to come We'll study Literature, true. RUTH EVANS, '31. THE ERESHIE Against the cold, grey, marble walls A trembling Freshie stands, A brand new pupil Freshiel' is With awkward feet and hands, His muscles quake with terror and fear As if bound by iron bands. His hair is rough and tangled and long, His face is red as a beet, His brow is wet with nervous sweat Not caused by Carlton's!' heat, He looks the whole school in the face, For he's bought his assembly seat. Week in, week out, from morn till night He will study his lessons sog But when at last exams', have come, He'll be on the very front row. we 'Qi ijjif:jf,g1i.1g: fiiifl . t ,.i..4j, -5125 I5 if,gI1Qglli1Lf,.fL-.fgQ.lL.15fQf1g11,,..Q The teachers will make them as hard as they can 139 For they're known as Freshie's foe.

He has a start in life To the goal for which he's yearned. ELEANOR Moiuus, '51. TO MISS CASH Some teachers are hated, Others are feared, But Miss Cash is different, She is revered. Some teachers teach math, What some teach is mystery. But Miss Cash is different, She teaches history. Some teachers are men, Some women, maybe. But Miss Cash is different, She is a lady! Some teachers are cruel, Hard on you, I meant, But Miss Cash is different, She's lenient. ALVIN LUEBBERS, '31, THE RIVER As I How through woods and valleys, As I dance over rocks and pebbles, 'Tis then my heart grows happy.

EFFIE MILLER, 83. A TOAST TO IVANHOE Oh to live in Sherwood, in the good old days of yore, To meet there with Robin Hood and his friends more than a score, To learn of brave Rebecca and Rowena gentle too, To thrill at the gay tournament where Ivanhoe came through To victory as a Pilgrim with the aid of Coeur de Leon, king, Whose praises through the story we all are wont to sing. Cedric as a Saxon true, with the long cloak he wore, Brian de Bois-Guilbert too, learned in knighrly lore, Lucas de Beaumanoir who had but small renown, And Isaac too, with many a zecchin and golden crown, And Prince John, his noble brother's de- ceiver, In league with Fitzurze, of false schemes a weaver. Athelstane, the Unready, too slow to give us thrill, Debracy, who wooed the fair Rowena much against her will, ' Front de Boeuf, the tyrant, practising his wiles at Torquilstone, Peasant Higg, the merciful, who alas now is gone, And wedding bells are ringing, as the book draws to a close, So herels a toast to Ivanhoe and the fair bride he chose.

Colors A long time ago-the class of 1890 had a meeting and decided to select class colors. Our class should have numbered twenty-six, but in the late summer of 1889 one of our best loved members was accidentally drowned. Donald Murray was his narne, and he loved the purple and gold pansies more than any other flower-so we decided to pay tribute to him and wear his beloved colors in a little knot of purple and gold ribbon. We had serious trouble in finding any purple ribbon in town, so had to use a purple velvet ribbon in combination with the gold grosgrain. Among my treasures is my little knot of them, tied just as we tied them then. When I see the school stationery wearing our colors and the yards of football streamers now worn by the present-day student-I wonder if they know they are paying tribute to a dearly beloved boy, member of the class of 1890?

The evil that men do lives after them,- In the shape of progeny who reap the Benefit of their life insurance,- So let it be with the deceased. Brutus hath told you Caesar was ambitious. What does Brutus know about it? It is none of his funeral. Would that it were! Here under leave of you I come to Make a speech at Caesar's funeral. He was my friend, faithful and just to me,-- He loaned me S5 once when I was in a pinch, And signed my petition for a post-ofhce,- But Brutus says he was ambitious Brutus should wipe off his chin. Caesar hath brought many captives home to Rome,- XVho broke rocks on the streets until their ransoms Did the general coffers hll. When that the poor hath cried, Caesar hath wept-- Because it didnit cost anything and Made him solid with the masses. Ambition should be made of sterner stuff g Yet Brutus says he was ambitious. Brutus is a liar, and I can prove it. You all did see that on the Lupercal I thrice presented him a kingly crown, Which he did thrice refuse, because it did not fit him Was this ambition? Yet Brutus says he was ambitious Brutus is not only the biggest liar in the country, But he is a horse thief of the deepest dye. If you have any tears, prepare to shed them now. You all do know this ulster. I remember the lirst time Caesar put it on, It was on a summer evening in his tent, With the thermometer registering 90 in the shade But it was an ulster to be proud of, And cost him 37 at Marcaius Swartzmeyer's quite Corner of Broad and Ferry streets, sign of the red Hag. Old Swartz wanted S40 for it, But finally came down to 37, because it was Caesar Was this ambition? If Brutus says it was He is a greater liar-than any one present. Look! in this place ran Cassius' dagger through, Through this the son of a gun of a Brutus stabbed, And when he plucked his cursed steel away, Mark Antony, how the blood of Caesar followed it! I come not, friends, to steal away your hearts, I am no thief, as Brutus is. Brutus has a monopoly on all that business, 176 Dearth 86 LeBeau MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS AND ACCESSORIES Repairs and Fire Insurance Piano Tuning 405 N. Main St., Bloomington, Ill.

Being the most popular boy in high school, he thought was not fun when you wanted only Her. Finally he saw her over near the orchestra. As he almost reached her, he acted as indifferent as he dared. He hoped no one would notice his excitement. Leading her outdoors where the moon was shining brightly, he hoped he might be inspired to ask her the vital question.

V 210 Ready to Serve ' ' In one important way there is a vast difference between the business of supplying a public utility service and the ordinary business enterprise. The average business may be conducted as the owner pleases. He may choose his customers at will, he may charge what he pleases, he is under no obligation tosupply his goods immediately. Public utility companies are under definite obli- gation to furnish service promptly to every appli- cant. Utility service must be ready 24 hours of the day, every day of the year. Public utility service must be available at all times, whether it is used or not. It must be ready for use in any quantity, at any hour of the day or night. This readiness to serve is one of the problems of the public service companies. A tremendous out- lay in equipment is required and a large force of employees needed to provide ample facilities for meeting, on a moment's notice, the public demand.

With much difliculty he dragged him upstairs, and not wishing to face perhaps an irate wife, he opened the first door he came to and pushed him in. On reaching the street, he made out the outline of another drooping iigure, apparently in worse condition than the first one, so he offered to help him upstairs, which offer was accepted, and he was assisted to the same room as the first one. Reaching the street again, he was surprised to make out the outline of another drooping figure, but never- theless, he again approached him to offer assistance, whereat the object of his solicitude ran into the arms of a passing policeman. For heaven's sake, off'cer, he gasped, Hprotect me from this man. He's done nothin' all night long but carry me upstairs 'n' throw me down th' elevator shaf'.

IN SALUTATICN TO The Class of 1931 From the time the youthful student learned to spell the simple words C-A-T and B-O-Y and associate them with the pictures in his primer, illustrations have' played an important part in the career which is terminating this year in that day of days, Gradu- ation. Each subject studied in school is brought just a little closer through the pictures in the pages of its text- books. Each illustration has meant that the engrav- er's handiwork has been maintaining that close bond established back in that distant primer day. It is gratifying to us as members of the engraver's profession to have had a small part in the fashioning of this year book. In much the same manner as we have contributed in helping these students glean the knowledge they sought, our share will, through the illustrations in this book, bring back pleasant mem- ories, in years to come when time's passage has gilded these pages with the gold of sentiment. Your careers are ahead of you, Class of 1931. As you march onward in the varied paths you follow, it is a source of satisfaction that the engraver, too, through his interpretation of world events, will keep step with you and lay before you the treasures of further knowledge. .
