Sixty-Eighth Commencement Davenport High School 1922 High School Auditorium Friday evening, June the twenty-third at eight o’clock TO THE RED AND BLUE Let all who love our dear, old High And who would celebrate her fame. All come together in all sorts of weather And loud her praise proclaim. Let every voice ring to the sky Until the echoes, answ’ring true. Give praise again in a joyous refrain To our dear old Red and Blue. CHORUS— So it’s hail to old Davenport, And hail to our colors true! We will honor thee forever. Hail to the Red and Blue! Let us recount our victories. And read with pride our honor roll; We must admit that they make quite a hit. With every game a goal. And may our triumphs so increase With every honest, hard-worn score, Another cup will be promptly put up In the cabinet by the door. Oh, let us work for D. H. S., For all too soon these days are o’er; Our happy days, our careless, happy days. Our school days come no more. And let us love our D. H. S. And keep her memory green and true Through all the years, through all our smiles and tears, Our beloved Red and Blue! THE BLA6KH WK ASSEMBLED A PUBLISHED Mh CLASS f 1922 . ““DA EHFOKI HIGH SCHOOL THE SIXTH VOLUME iii FOREWORD WE have embodied in this yearbook a certain symbolism of the Indian with the purpose of re-establishing the original people of our val- ley in memory. In the period of the Indian, the councilfires of the Sacs, Sioux, and Ottawas were emblems of tribal potency in his domain. Today the Red Man is restricted to the servitude of the reser- vations, where he is wont to pass a stoical existence —the remnants of a fallen race. As a tribal host, the Indian shares history; yet as a scattered people, he is gradually being forgotten. The destiny of the Red Man resembles in its ele- ments and phases the course of a class. While band- ed together as a class we represent the pinnacle of achievements for that group, as did the Indian in his tribal state. And as the Redskin passed into obli- vion upon exodus from his primeval domain, so does a class vanish as a unit when its members enter life’s individualism. As the wigwam hieroglyphics, the wampum, and the basketry reflect the Indian today, even though exiled; so may this book recall our activities as a class in the years which lie beyond. PROLOGUE AUSE, oh palmers, one and all, Loiter at our festival! Strange the deed accomplished here. Within the covers of this book Is bound one golden, living year, If you will for a moment look. Tender, nurtured memories, Silhouettes on the stage of life, Furnished with the silv’ry keys, Reveal the days that never die. In years of retrospect and yearning Flit these visions of the past— Days of joy and days of learning— Within this book are truly cast. DEDICATION TO MA- K.ATAI-ME-SHE-KIA-KIAK 5 1922. BLAOCHAWK is dedicated to CdiefMacd iccwd, the Indian warrior .whose spirit of courage and devotion in the defense of his virgin land .is worthy of our emulation. We.an alien race occupying Blackhawk's primeval domain, may well Strive to perpetuate his memory, and in our struggle with life, find inspiration in his example, vl PHILIP D. ADLEK Editor OTIS L.

You were such an alert and interested group, full of curiosity and enthusiasm, which is the same thing as ginger” and “pep”. That entrance day marked an epoch in your lives, and now your graduation will mark another. Between those two golden davs of youth what a little world of knowledge and experi- ence you have explored! No other four years will l e quite the same as tliese—a happy preface, I trust, to a happy life. As a class you have made an enviable record. In scholarship, and in all the activities you have had your full (piota of stars. Whatever you have undertaken you have done well, and you leave with the respect and regard of all of us with wliom you have been associated. Here is hoping that your aims may all lie high, your ambitions noble, and your achievements successful. It Is a pleasure to have known you all, and as you recede into the backgreund of happy memories you liear with you the lasting friendship and esteem of Your sincere friend, P a (j e 13 William R.

H. S. in '18 at the mo- ment of a structural crisis in our country’s life, and we depart in a period of peace and prosperity, the last of a long succession of classes which have spent the full four years in High School. During our brief sojourn under the skillful guidance of our friend, adviser, and pal, Mr. George Edward Mashall, we have been the leaders in the school life, the leaders in athletics, forensics, activities, and social affairs. Only the vainglorious delight in self-eulogy, but we may be pardoned upon this occasion to boast of our successes. The captains of the football, basket ball, and track teams arc graduates, and Seniors composed the ma- jority of these aggregations. In forensic work, several graduates have attained the highest honors which can be bestowed, and the Seniors have ably guided the activities of the various organizations which form an intimate part of our career. The Football Dance and the High School Ex- cursion are symbolic of the lofty standards we maintained in the social life of the school. As a parting word, I wish to express my humble gratitude to the class to have l)een offered the opportunity to lead so noble a group of young men and women. In the future, I trust, the members of the Class of ’22 will l)e welcomed as leaders in every walk of life. In the past we have aided in the building up of the D. II. S. spirit, and it is this spirit of true fidelity and loyalty which will guide us in the future. There are no quitters in the Class of ’22, and as the years go by, we will play the game of life honestly, bravely, and cheerfully for the game’s sake, to the end. Otis L.

Mickey:—Oh down at Krosges' five and ten. I swiped them while the clerk. Dorothy Al- bright. had her back turnod. Lily Johnson and Dorothea Heuer are clerkin' there too. Stella Matthews used to work there but after she swiped a bunch of stuff she beat it. They couldn't catch her because she's an old hand at cross-country hiking. Hop Too Itt:—Here's your package misses. (Thero is a fight over terms after which the girls leave without the packago.) (Knter Alley Jack, an old habitue.) Jack:--Say. Hop Too Itt. I gotta have some of the real stuff again. I went over to I.ourdcs Gordon's drug store and he sold me some stuff that wouldn't even stiffen up Joe Me I.cnn. It musta have been starch. Say Joe hasn't been around here lately, has he? (Hop Too Itt shakes head.) Jack:—I haven't seen him since he and Harriet Bendixon got the job as dancing instructors on the G. W. Hill. Krasuski and Neola McCall tried to beat them out of the position but couldn't so they started a dancing school of their own down at the Bridge Line Hotel. (Palsy Peto awakens and sits up in his bunk.) Pete: You talk too darned loud; I can't sleep even after I’ve had a pipeful. You're worse than Ruth Crinklaw. She's the radio broadcaster for the weather bureau. The reason sho holds down her job is because no one needs a receiving set to hear her. Jack:—Speaking of radio, didja read in the paper where Earl Schnoor died. He fell off his aerial, while pulling the tight rope act in his sleep last night. Pete:—Yop. It's too bad the way these guys kick in. John Van Ausdall. the would-be ar- tist. could draw everything but his breath and so he died too. Jack:—Aw let's change the subject. I wuz down at Fred Toulouse's pool room the other day. and guess who I saw there. Gladys Drury! She used to be president of the Backbiters' Association, but she got too strong for them. Now she's cleaning cuspidors at Freddy's pool room. Somo downfall, oh? (Dope fiend in a cot snores loudly.) Pete: -Holy mackerel, if that didn't sound like Helen Warner I’ll pass out. She’s using her hot air blowing the steam whistle on a dredge in the Mississippi. I saw her there the other day when I went out to see Orvin Deters. He's heavin' coal on the old scow. Jack:- Well, what do you say to a pipeful. It's my treat. Cum ere. you slant-eyed heathen, with a couple of those pills. (Toughs climb into bunks to sleep. Jack drops a piece of paper which Hop Too Itt picks up.) Hop Too Itt:— Ah. this the program for a show me see last night. Melican girices do funny dance like this (illustrates). Me down in what one call bald head row. Mo rend you pro- gram. This burlesque show directed by Traugott Richter. Leading lady. Harriet Rachel Wheeler. She sings All the Quakers are Shimmy Shakers. Chorus girls are Vera lx ck- wood. Ella Rock. Hazel Davis. Helen Spring. Verah Klahn. Linda Rohlff. Ella Bloom. Anna Johnson. Helen Trauffer. Mildred Strohkarck and Irma Hartman. Dat nlloe best show I see yet. After show me go back stage with dope to Kurt Schmidt. He old customer. He tell me him be prop man on stage. When I back there I see funny man standing in cor- ner with a bunch of dandelions. 1 a� k Schmidt who dat man. He says He Otis Wiese. Since Jean Oliver give him kickee. he come every night with dandelions for Harriet Wheel- er. He try to mako love to her with his Rodolf Valentino hair and his eloddhopper's dance. (Hypo Steve on tho floor still asleep sits up again and pounds bell.) Hypo Steve: The meeting of the United Commercial Travellers Association will please come to order. All except bootleggers and other crooks excluded. Skip the minutes. First, we'll hear an address by Ruth Yocum. She will present to you the advantages and conveni, ences offered by Raymond Faustian's bathhouse situated at the Dead Sea. (Pauses ana then applauds as if speech is completed). Next. Vera Burns will give a demonstration of Sylvia Pederson’s now patent dry cleaning compound. Neverwash , which, if applied, saves timo by eliminating the need of washing. (Pausea and applauds as before.) The commit- tee on new members recommends the following for membership with us: Bernico Martin, who. after failing utterly to break into high society, has become local saleswoman for the Martin Cigar Company. Her territory includes the pool halls and near beer joints of Nahant and Bettendorf's Holy City . William I-cuenhagen. alias Bilious”, who is selling “Vita- mon tablets” at Earl Sltz's Far Beer parlor. Evart Griggs and Earl Bartmess. salesmen for talking machines at the deaf and dumb asylums. Arthur Wupper. the modern Ponce do Leon, who is selling Elixir of Life. Due to his previous college affiliations, he has learned the Swedish language, so he sells his goods in Sweden. Mary Meewes and Irma Teufel, excellent specimens for hairnet saleswomen. John Lundvall and Walter Schlichting are especially recommended for their wonderful records in selling glass bicycles with con- crete tires. Iola Gilmour and Walter Twachtman. salespeople for Peach Bloom rouge. Jake Le Buhn. life insurance agent, who has made a fortune through his sales to girls of tho Immaculate Conception Academy and of Rock Island. (Brick is heaved by Pete.) Hypo Steve:—Meeting's adjourned. (Exits) Low Hung Chin:—I put snuff in his pipe. Hop Too Itt:—What kinda snuff? Low Hung Chin: Kind made by Ed Ohlsen. Harry Nielson and Elliot Swenson at new snuff factory. Page 68 (There is a pounding on the trap door. Low Hung Chin climbs ladder, peeks through an open- ing and comes down quickly.) Low Hung Chin: It's Charlie Kuttler. alias Tommy O'Connor, the safe-cracker. He been in Sing Sing six year. (Tommy comes down ladder, groaning and holding his hand on swollen cheek.) Hop Too Itt: —-Whas a malla you? (Tommy emits groan):—I just came from Pat Crowe's five-to-lifty cent dental emporium. I guess ho thought he was drilling for oil. Gimme a shot, quick! Hop Too Itt:—Allight! Allight! (Gives him a shot in the arm.) Tommv:—Gosh I'm goln' hack to Sing Sing if they're goin' to treat me like this when I get out. Well anyway Pat's office girl Hildegarde Marousek helped to make the drilling more painless. Hop Too Itt:—What you get sent up Sing Sing for? Tommy: I did a second-story job. swiped a bunch of razors from Skib Fox's barber shop and tried to sell them at Phil Adler's Pawn shop. The dippy bozo squealed on me and I got sent up for six years. I got a raw deal. First I had to wait six weeks in jail while they were settling that big double divorce suit: White vs. Schmidt and Archibald vs. Wagner. Sis got sore because she grew some bunions on her hands. George's hands were so rough. I don't know why Margaret Archibald got mad. but she took offense and gave Wagner the gate. It all came out all right since Schmidt married Margaret and Wagner got Sis. All of them thought they got the best of the deal. Well, when I finally did get in to court, my case was hopeless from the start, because Joe Fennell was the judge. And what was worse, look at the jury I had: Harold Ely. Wilma Priess. Phillip Allen. Vera Hagcmann. Harold Albrecht. Alma Harkness and six others just as bad. Hop Too Itt:—You sec any of the old gang there? Tommy:—Sure. Red Zoller is a lifer. Jazz Underwood had him sent up for steaing the study room bell. Then there's Bob Barker. He's up for polygamy. Every spring for four years he married a new woman. All together he's married Clara Niemand. Lucille Sorrowfree. Mary Springer and Mary Hanno. Frank Court is still in. too. Some movie company came up and took a picture in which he took the villain's part. He got away with it good. Hop Too Itt:—How about Will Weise and Ralph Kloppenburg? Tommy: -Willie was sent up for arson just the other dav. He was caught manufacturing an apparatus for setting fire to Chevrolets and he was testing it out when his own chariot burned. Kloppenburg killed ! 9 suitors to keep his wife. Jane Kuehl. from harm. They put him in solitary confinement until his execution. He didn't have anything to do so he took to biting his toenails and he died of ptomaine poisoning. (Low Hung Chin gives him a pipe and he falls asleep. Mickey and Sadie enter.) Mickey:—Say. you chunk of bad news, give us the package; here’s your money. Sadie: Gee. I saw a rotten movie yesterday. Since Ray Wendland has been censor, hunting out the hidden meanings, the pictures have been dead. Why the Bathe Weekly is the only' live thing left. Yesterday it showed the Dietz brothers giving pigs swimming lessons on their Walcott farm. They also showed Ethel Moeller at her new job as swimming instructor at the Baptist Church. Say what did you have your hair bobbed for? Sadie; Are you still goin with I-ec Ely. Why. I see him running around the streets every night with his car. Last night I saw him out with those two hard women. EPa McCun and Isabel Stockwell. He's got a big cowcatcher on tho front of his Buick to got the pickups. Mickey: He has? Why tho dirty low life. I'll give him tho air all right. Phew. kid. what's that funny smell? Sadie:—Oh. that's some of Marguerite Petersen’s new deodorant. It’s recommended for bak- ery employees. I tried some but I'll know better next time. Mickey:- -Sav. I had the dumbest time last night with a guy that's 99 years old and he's onlv a second 'looey” in the army. He claimed his name was Arnold Lund. He took me down to that Mulligan stew Joint run bv Erna Reibstein. She's trying to establish her nationality by wearing green and serving Irish stews. Dumb-bell Lund took me straight home, and then he says: 'Gee. I had a swell time'. Coming home in( his Saxon roadster all I had to do was to read the Whiz Bang. Gosh it's getting raw since thev got the new staff. Fred Bills and Liz Neuhaus are the editors and Pearl Weaver writes Drippings From The Faucet . Sadie?—I'm luckv. I don't have to buy it. Mover Cristol. the bird that distributes them here has a terrible case on me and lets me have them for nothin'. Mickey: Say. kid. I'm hungry, l et's go over to Johnny Moeller's eat-me- uick restaurant. Af- ter Martin Cigar Co. canned him. he started up for himself and he slings a mean line of grub. (Mickey and Sadie Exit.) (Enter a slumming party of four newly-rich.) Geraldine:—O dear, how queer it smells in here. Are you sure we're safe? Algernon: How foolish of you. Jerry, you know you are always safe with me. Madelynne: Como quick Percy and see the funny man. What's he doing? Percy:—He's taking a bath in a trombone. Madelynne:—No really, what is he doing? Percy:—Why ho is slightly inebriated. Madelynne:—Oh-h-h. Page 69 Geraldine:—Let's sit down. I'm tired. We danced too long: last night at Carlquist’s cabaret. Algernon:—I say. my man. the lady is suffering from extreme fatigue. Could we pause here while she recovers? Hop Too Itt:—Allight. She likee shot in the arm? Geraldine:—Why you horrible thing. (Exit Hop Too Itt). Madclynnc:—I don't see why you're so tired. I could dance all night to that wonderful or- chestra. I never knew that Doris Martyn. Margaret Collins. Frances Armil. Glen Enz folder, and Marcus Miller could play jazz music, but they certainly are keen. Percy (Aside to Algernon):—When we’ve taken these women home lot's go back and get “Dot Evans. Carlquist's cabaret dancer. Algernon: You're on. Geraldine:—Say what in the world has become of our old friend Ruth Jamison? Madelynne:—Oh. she's left the country and gone up the Yukon to dig for gold. Gera'dine: I suppose she couldn't pick up enough doun here. My dears have you heard the big seamin'? I.ouise Nelson was pinched by Werner Braack. the traffic cop at Mt. Joy. You know she always was fast. None of the teachers ever passed her. Algernon: -By the way. have you heard that Harley Derry is now being supported by the county? He's in the Old Man's Home and every afternoon he goes over to the Old Woman's Homo to demonstrate his famous Statue of Liberty dance. Percy:—Say. Floyd Schroeder. the old High School tea-hound, surely has picked some keen waitresses at his new tea room. There's Esther Schwarzbach. Mildred Senn. Edna Thom- sen. and Elizabeth Shantz. I’ve learned Ix-c Ely's trick and become acquainted with all of them. Algernon:—I had a swell pair out with me the other night in the bus. the two Greenwich Vil- lage Follies stars. Neoma Kistenmacher and Bernardino Dahms. I had a mean time. Madelynne:- -Boys, we'll have to rush, for I simply must go down and get a manicure at Emer- son Gibney's manicuring parlors. Hasn't he the most wonderful linger nails? Geraldine: Yes. he spends half of his time polishing them, and the other half admiring them. He's courting Irma Berg now. After a fai'ure at art. she has joined the Salvation Army. Madelynne:—Oh. who do you suppose I met last week when I was dov n at the Kentucky Derby with Percy? I met Marguerite and Katherine Naumann. They've been making loads of money betting cn the ponies. Geraldine:—Isn't life strange? For instance you remember the time when Norma Goettig got the Blackhawk to publish the proposal of marriage sent her by a German officer? Well, now she’s married to him and they're reported to be living happily in Czccho-Slovakia. Madelynne: Speaking of marriages. Vera Cox performed the unfortunate, too. She won Herbert Grueber. but as he can't support her. she brings her children down to the Industrial Home every day and goes out and washes. Bud Goode'l is hired by the Industrial Home to amuse the infants. From his basket ball training he is able to play a fin game of marblw. Percy: Oh I say. Algy. I feel inclined to take a whiff of one of those blow torches. Are you game to do it with me? Algernon: I certainly am. Perhaps the ladies desire to try It. too. What do you say. girls? It won't incapacitate you in any way. Madelynne and Geraldine:—All right. We're game. (All smoke a pipe and fall asleep). Slow Curtain.

In spite of this drawback, the Juniors rapid- ly fell into line and entered whole-heartedly into the endeavor of making this a successful year for the school. This organization has proved to lxi one of the foremost classes in re- cent years. Its members have at all times displayed the real D. H. S. spirit necessary to keep the Red and Blue in the lead in all activities: Social, athletic, and forensic. The “Kid Party” and the Basket Ball Dance, the two social functions sponsored by the class were two of the most brilliant affairs of the season. The majority of the “comers” on the football field, basket ball court, and the track are Juniors; these promise to be the backbone of our teams next year as well as having been the support and raw material for the teams this year. The Class of ’23 is also very proud to claim as members, those who have made such enviable records as debaters and declaimers, during the past school year. Much credit for the success of the class is due the two sponsors, Miss Marie Dunker and Mr. Ralph McGinnis, who have woiked faithfully and unceasingly for the success of the class. Dic k Downer President of the Class of ’23 Page 73 Page 7U SOPHOMORES Page 75 THE SOPHOMORES THIS year the Sophomore class has undergone transition. This com- pany of young people, who in former days roamed the corridors with a “sees all; knows all” sort of attitude, has now been deposed to the level of the infant class on the campus. The inauguration of the Interme- diates has caused the passing of the effervescent Frosh. The present Sophomores passed the Freshman year in the new buildings, entering High as Sophs. Bivouaced in the sanctum of “B” under the guidance and care of Mr. Keller, the members of the class have gradually become identified with many of the activities of D. H. S. The present class numbers practically three hundred. Many of the Sophs have affiliated themselves with athletics, others have been started on the road to a promising career in forensic work, and many are numbered on the rostors of the several societies on the campus. As always has been the lot of this group, the Sophomore class is ham- pered by lack of organization under an efficient system of officers. As Juniors, in the year to come, they will spring into prominence, if the in- terest in high school affairs manifested this year is maintained. The Intermediate schools have been fine preparatory schools for the Sophs in many lines, especially as the make-up of the football, basket ball, and track teams evidence. Trained in the elementary work in these sports, members of the Sophomore class were able to step in the first rank by virtue of their previous experience. The publications of the In- termediates are furnishing staff material for The Blackhawk and in many incidences “copy” for its pages. As soon as the freshness, which i ervades every newcomer into a changed field, was worn away, the Sophomore has engaged earnestly in school life. So, here’s to the Class of '24.

((wmU Cfj 1 «tlaifcully P ft 0 e 5 4 Page 85 Coach McGinnis WHEN Ralph McGinnis came to Davenport High School this fall, no one believed that he would he able to develop a winning team from the small amount of experienced material. It was expected that McGinnis would turn his attention to de- veloping a team for next year, rather than work for a winning team this season. McGinnis, by hard work, pep, and a real knowledge of football, developed a lighting” team that won its games. In addition to the excellent team developed this year, Mac” has trained a fine nucleus for next year’s team. McGinnis is a man who is on the field in uni- form, and we arc confident that Davenport High School will enjoy a successful season next year un- der his competent leadership. THE FOOTBALL YEAR RALPH McGINNIS, coach of the Davenport High School football team, was expected to develop a champion football team from a nucleus of four letter men. Captain Kloppcn- burg, Krasuski, Stetson, and Goddard. From this unpromising beginning Mc- Ginnis produced one of the most re- markable teams the school has ever known, not a one man team, but an eleven man team. This same fighting” team held North Des Moines to a 3 to 0 score, won the Tri-City title by tying Rock Island in a hanl-fought battle, and defeated Moline, the champions of Western Illinois, on Thanksgiving Day. In the first game of the season with West Liberty, McGinnis' eleven showed their worth, using the forward pass and open plays to good advantage. This game i-evenled some of the good and bad points of the team. Thcro were no in- dividual stars, although all the men played good games. The final score was 84 to 3. Gcneseo was the next victim. Mc- Ginnis spent the week correcting faults shown up in the previous game, and the squad gave evidence of much improve- ment. The playing of Stetson, who was shifted from tackle to full, was one of the notable features of the game. The forward pass was worked to good ad- vantage, the second fray of the season ending 20 to 3 for Davenport. The Little Hawks administered the first Ix-ating of the season to Davenport The eleven seemed to lx? entirely lack- ing in spirit with the exception of Goodell. Iowa City played a fast game, taking advantage «if every break in the game, just nosing out Davenport 10 to 14. With a week of hard work behind them, the team entered the North Des Moines fray with a groat deal of pep and determination to fight every min- ute of the game. Davenport was up against a real team for the first time in the season. After the poor slxiwing against Iowa City, the team alxiut-faced and played the North Des Moines ag- grogation off their feet. The team, In- consistent line plunges, advanced the ball several times to the shadow of the goal posts, but fate would not allow a score. In the last period, after having been out-fought for three quarters, North Des Moines scored a single drop- kick to win. Davenport's outstanding players were LeBuhn on the line and Stetson in the backfield. Foreign territory was invaded for the first time this season to meet the Gales- burg team. Camp went over the line during the first period after two min- Page 86 THE FOOTBALL YEAR (Continued) utes of play. The score remained 6 to 0 till the end. The remainder of the game was a battle royal between the two teams, neither side gaining any great advantage. There was a lack ol fight shown in the previous game. To celebrate Armistice day, Rock Is- land and Davenport staged a miniature world war on a field of mud. Both teams played conservative football with few open or trick plays. Davenport came close to scoring during the liret quarter, when a drop kick missed the goal by only a few feet. Krasuski and NValdvogle played great games on tl� c line, while Kloppenburg starred in the back field. The game ended a 0 to 0 tie. The following week Davenport trav- eled to Clinton. During the second per- iod Armil intercepted a pass and made tlu only Davenport score. During the third quarter Krasuski was put out of the game for alleged roughness, and a 50 yard penalty paved the way for Clinton’s only score, making the read- ing ( to 6. the team showed little fight, while the breaks of the game favored Clinton. On Thanksgiving Dav Moline invaded Davenport to cinch tne Tri-City title. The Swedes from across the river were confident of winning the game. They had not lost a game during the season, and had a squad composed almost en- tirely of experienced men. The Red and Blue team bv putting up a continuous fight, was able to outplay the heavier and more experienced team. The first quarter saw little action, the ball being mostly in Moline’s territory. Davenport, by excellent playing and generalship, was able to attempt several dropkicks, which failed. As the period was draw- ing to a close, Davenport worked the ball to within one yard of the goal when the half ended. During the fourth quar- ter, Kloppenburg intercepted a pass and with perfect interference ran -10 yards for a goal. Then Moline woke up, but Davenport held. The game endec! with the score 6 to 0 for Davenport, and the Red and Blue was awarded the Tri-City championship. Davenport was well represented on the mythical Tri-City eleven this year, plac- ing three men on the first team. They were Krasuski, Goddaid, and NValdvogle, cap tain-elect. The Red and Blue losses by gradua- tion this year are: Kloppenburg, Quinn, Stetson. Krasuski. Goddard. Ix� Buhn. Henry, Fennell, Goodell, Dau, Fox, and Johns. Thus the season ended—with Daven- port the undisputed champion of the Tri-Cities. Captain Ki )ppenburg THE Captain of the Red and Blue Team this year was Ralph Kloppenburg. Klop- penburg was an excellent leader, being very popular with the team and the coach. He was not a spectacular player, but he could always be depended upon to be consistent. Kloppenburg was the kind of a captain any team would 1« proud to have; a fighter, not a talker; a leader, not a follower, and always game to the very last minute of play. In Kloppenburg the Red and Blue team loses a good, consistent and hard-fighting captain. Page 87 Page 88 Top Row—TULLIS. STETSON. LEBUHN. KRASUSKI. QUINN. JOHN. DAU Mlddlo Row—COACH McGINNIS.

GOO DELL Davenport Upsets All Predictions by Win Over Moline P lhllii — ..illi' fl _ � i' • THE SEASON IN HEADLINES Page 89 — Waldvogel, Captain Elect End Waldvogel, the captain-elect, is one of the best ends in the Tri- Cities. He is a fast player, and the haitlcst tackier on the team. He is steady and consistent, im- proving with each game. During the past season there was only one gain made 'round Larry’s end. In addition to these qualities of a player, Waldvogel has the qualifi- cations of a leader, a strong per- sonality, self-confidence and plen- ty of light. Larry has two more years in school, and will prove an even groatcr asset to the team next year and the year after. Boardman, Guard With the exception of “Kras”, Board man was the heaviest man on the line. He is another one of the new men whose consistent and never ending efforts brought suc- cess to the team. He was always trying to do his best, and the leal worth of his experience will lie shown next year. Herzberg, Guard Herzberg was outweighed by al- most every guard he opjiosed. He did not allow his lack of size to hamper him, but always used his weight to the lest advantage. Con- sidering his inexperience, Herz- berg did well this season, and he should prove one of the mainstays of the line next year. Armil, Halfback Armil was ineligible at the le- ginning of the season, but in a short time developed into an all- round backfield man. Armil is especially good at picking holes. He will le very valuable next year as a three throat man. Goddard, Tackle Goddard is one of the smallest tat kles in the state, but lie has won an enviable reputation as a lighter and a heady player. Goddaitl was chosen on the Tri-City team this year, thereby proving'his caliber. He will leave a large hole for Mc- Ginnis to fill next season. Page 90 Krascski, Tackle Krasuski’s great size and strength was the stumbling block of all opponents. He knows the game, is shifty and clever, and analyzes the play well. “Kras” would surely have made the team in the old days, because all grid- iron men were giants in those days. Krasuski has played his last foot- ball for Davenport and played it well. Stetson, Fullback “Stcts” played in hard luck this year, l«ing ineligible or out for injuries in several games. His natural berth is tackle, making the all-state team for two years in this position. He was shifted to the backficld this season to kick and pass. At full, Stetson was a won- derful find. He will lie missed a great deal from the squad next year. LeBuiin, Center LeBuhn, although inexperienced, always played a good, consistent game. He improved with each game and did not make a bad pass all season. Time was never called for him because of injuries. This is taBuhn’s last year, and he will leave a large gap at center. John, Guard John is an aggressive and fear- less player. He uses his hands well, and was good both on offense and defense. He was forced out of play several times during the year because of the nine semester ruling. This football season mark- ed John’s last appearance in foot- ball at Davenport. Camp, Quarterback Camp did the unusual this year in cinching the quarterback posi- tion in his first year on the squad. Camp is a hard worker, and is al- ways cool and collected. Great things are expected from his drop- kicking next year. Page 91 Dau, Tackle Dau is pre-eminently a fighter and a heady player. He was never outplayed. He was adept in the use of his hands in getting to the play. He developed into an excel- lent tackle, being always on the job. This season is Dau’s last for football at Davenport. Goodki.l, Quarterback Coodcll was the lightest man on the team and also the best open field runner. At quarter he was quick to pick the opponent’s weak- nesses. Even though “Bud” is small, he was never hurt. This is his last year at the I). H. S. Fox, Halfback Fox was handicapped by his lack of weight, but lie hit the line hal'd and was very good at picking holes. He adapted himself to ail combinations of the backlield, and was especially valuable in his de- fensive ability in backing up the line. Fox graduates this June. Fennell, End Fennell, although not as fast as some of the other mcmlicrs of the team, developed into one of the best ends in the Tri-Cities. He al- ways seemed to Ik in the right place at the proper time. He is a hal'd player, a good tackier, and is always dependable. This is his first‘and last year on the team. QriNN, End Quinn had the advantage of weight and a year’s experience. He is not a flashy player, but de- pendable and consistent He solved the opponents’ play and caught passes cleverly. The Clin- ton game was Quinn’s last� appear- ance in a Red and Blue uniform. Page 92 BASKET BALL Coach Bornholdt COACH Bornholdt needs no introduction to de- votees of Davenport High School basket ball. Cham- pionship teams arc the rule rather than the exception with “Newts”. 'Iliis year’s record of twenty - one straight wins places him in the highest rank of coaches in the state. His experi- ence in both the playing and coaching end of tlve game has given him a knowledge of basket ball second to none. His hap- py inspiration of having two combinations of play- ers was the deciding fac- tor in this season’s suc- cess. He harmonized the teamwork of the two com- binations to such a degree that they played together as one team. Davenport basket ball fans hope to see “Newts” piloting next year’s squad to victory. REVIEW OF BASKKT BALL YEAR WITHOUT a doubt, the season of 1922 pioduced one of the most formidable basket ball teams in the history of the Davenport high. At the beginning of the season, prospects for a winning team looked none too bl ight to Coach Bornholdt. With but three last season’s men on the squad, good green material was at a premium. Hut thanks to the coaching quali- ties of Hornholdt and Kuttler, and the fighting spirit of every man on the squad, an exceptionally strong team was whipped into shape. At the beginning of the season, the members of the Hed and Blue first squad are in quest of two tilings. First, to win the much coveted Tri-City Championship and second, to lead the list at the annual Iowa City tournament. The Tri-City Championship was won with considerable ease. In the first affair of the season, the Hed and Blue hoopsters had little trouble in downing tlve much touted Islanders by a 27 to 19 measure. Next came the Swedes”, who suffered an 18 to 7 reverse. After these two crushing victories, Davenport bas- ket ball stock took a big rise in the market of sport. Perhaps the most looked for game on the entiro schedule is the mixer with the Saint Ambrose Juniors. The Saintlings had been hitting a winning gait all season and at the day of the game, prospects for a win looked about 50% in the favor of the Hed and Blue. Hut tlie Saints failed to exhibit a winning game. The game ended 17 to 10 in the favor of Davenport high. The hoopsters continued to pile up victory after victory until visions of the state title loomed quite brightly to the Davenporters. Moline was crushed the second time, while the Islanders suffered a real defeat by a score of 34 to 11. The ■ Page 9 b first quest of the season was in the hands of the locals. The Red and Blue had won the Tri-City Championship for the Davenport high. Next came the biggest scare of the season. Iowa City nearly upset all dope and only after a brilliant comeback, was Davenport able to carry home the long end of tlie score. The Little Hawks had put up a remarkable battle, while the Red and Blue stock took a sharp decline. The Red and Blue men then became soldiers of fortune. Three straight games were played on foreign soil, but this fact did not weaken the winning streak of the locals. In Geneseo, Centerville, and Oskaloosa, Davenport downed three of the hardest quintets on their schedule. To top one of the most remarkable schedules, the locals had little trouble in winning from the Clinton crew . The Alumni aggregation proved to lx no match for the regulars in one of the most interesting games of the season. Then came the climax of the season. With 18 straight wins to their credit, Davenport appeared as one of the surest bets to win the big Iowa City tourna- ment. Teams from all over the state were assembled in the most looked for event of the season. Davenport started the tourney in a winning pace. Lone Tree was shelved with a 20 to 7 score. Then came the speedy Gilbert aggregation. After one of the hardest fought games of the tourney, Davenport was the victor by a 15 to 13 measure. Another close shave was tlie Anamosa affair. Davenport was only able to beat the prison city crew by a tune of 15 to I I. Then came the bitter cup. Davenport lost to the University High hoopsters by a score of ll to 10. Such ended one of the most remarkable season's for many a court moon. No doubt it will l e some time lx?fore the basket ball team of 1922 is last in our memories. Krasuski, Center KRASUSKI has the hon- or of captaining the first team in the history of the school that passed through the season unde- feated. He was an ideal center, a position in which his height gave him a great advantage. In spite of his 195 pounds, lie is active and speedy, and has an unerring eye for tlie basket. This is his third year on the team, and just as in football, he has earned a state-wide repu- tation as a clean and hard playing athlete. He has lieen chosen on All-State teams for two years, which speaks well for his ability. His team-mates had confi- dence in him, which fact accounted in no small way for the success this year. Davenport High School will have to wait a long time before it produces another athlete of Krasus- ki’s caliber. Page 95 Jkhkxs Stetson LKKSE Goodkll A If Ml I.

Stets” has givat speed and endurance and a complete knowledge of basket ball, lie is a finished high school bas- ket ball player and will leave a large gap in the High School’s team. Dollkr i 11dk, Substitute Dollerhide has keen an all-iound utility man on the team this year. Although lie just failed to play in enough games to win his letter, he proved his worth by stepping in Krasuski’s place at center on nu- merous occasions. He is expected to fill that position next year. True, Guard True si lowed his real worth last year and he has played a good game ever since. He is not a flashy player, but he is hard to get around. We will lose one of our lest and most consistent piavere this year when True graduates. Jebens, Captain-Elect, Forward Jebens is a very shifty player, and plays the wliole floor. He is especially good at finding open- ings and in this way gets many shots at the basket. He is very clever at long shots. Jebens will 1« here next year and will help form a nucleus for next years team. Page 97 Lkkse, Forward I.cesc was an unknown quantity at the beginning of tl� e season, but his natural ability and hard work soon won him a place on the team. He followed the ball well, and was especially good at short shots un- der the basket Leese graduates in June. Goodkll, Forward Hoodell is the smallest but at the same time, the fastest man on the team. He was greatly handi- capped by his lack of weight, but on the whole, came the nearest to being a finished forward of any man on the team. He is a hard lighting player, and played his best games at the tournaments. His speed and light will Ik missed next year. Dai;, Forward Dan is especially good on floor work, making possible the scoring of the other men. He is all over the floor, and is very good at guarding, besides playing his regu- lar position at forward. Dau leaves this year. Armil, Guard Armil is a flashv type of player at running guard! He is new at the game and is not as consistent as some of the older men, but we look for him to 1� one of the out- standing men next year. Page 98 TRACK Page 99 Ben Simon SIMON as Captain of the 1922 track squad has been an out- standing personality in the mile, 880 yard event, and the re- lays throughout his track career. He is a hard trainer and earnest worker, qualities which made his period of leadership a success. He holds the Quad-City record for the mile, which he established in 1921. Unfortunately he was unable to participate in the Quad-City out- door meet this year because of the nine semester ruling. Had he been eligible, different results should have been chalked up. TRACK, 1922 WITH only one letter man on the squad, Coach McGinnis started the track season of 1922 with a comparatively poor outlook. The choice of the Ked and Blue material had been graduated with the class of 1921, leaving only inexperienced material out of which to build a team. Hard, consistent work on the part of the squad spelled a fairly fast team for the 1(1 1 and Hluc. Contrary to the opinions of the average high school student, track stars are not the products of one year’s training. It takes several seasons of expert coaching and diligent training to produce a real track star. This was Davenport’s main tiouble during the season of 1922. With the ex (Op- tion of Captain Simon, none of the material had any previous training on the cinders. Several of the performers that were green men at the beginning of the season came through in fine shape. Clayton at the high and low hurdles was an exceptionally fine performer. At loth of the Iowa City meets Clayton proved to l e one of the fastest men in the state. Fredersdorlf and Phelps ex- hibited a fast pair of heels in the 50 and 100 yards and were fast men in lx th the mile and half mile relays. At the jumps, Tullls proved to 1« a brilliant athlete. The first meet was the Iowa City indoor classic. Davenport was able to carry home the honors of fourth place out of 20 sclxols entered. The fact that the rather green Davenport material was pitted against some of the hardest competition in the state points much in the favor of the lied and Blue athletes. At this meet Clayton distin- guished himself as one of the fastest liuidle men in the state. Next was the annual inter-class meet. The Seniors had little trouble in taking the meet with a total of (12 points. The Juniore came in second with a tally of 39, while the Sophomores also ran”. Simon, Clayton, and Phelps were the outsanding performers at this meet. Then came the outdoor inter-class meet. Again the Seniore were the victors by pil- ing up a total of 02 points. The Juniore romped in second with a tally of 42, while the Sophomores were able to chalk a lonely 2 to their credit At the annual Iowa City outdoor classic, Davenport made a fair showing. Clayton was able to show real speed at the high hur- dles, while Tullis did exceptionally well at the broad jump. The Ked and Blue relay teams were not far Ixdiind the winners of third place. At the Quad-City outdoor meet at Brown- ing field, Moline, Davenport took third place with 28Vi points, ltock Island took the meet with Moline a runner-up. The outlook for next season is much brighter. Some excellent material was dis- covered in the ranks of the Juniors and Sophomores. These men should prove to be valuable material for next season’s squad. Page 100 Page 101 AXEL Coar 11 «' GINNIS POWERS of IOVA CITY KCCOVtNO Mai. fO .

Last year there were not enough wrestlers to send to any meet, but this year there were three men entered in the Ames meet and six at Iowa City. Vogel was the only man to place at the Ames meet. The experience gained at Ames, however, by the other members of the team enabled every man to place at the Iowa City meet, the team taking second place. On March 30, the wrestling and boxing departments put on an exhibition which was regarded a distinct success by all who saw it. Coach Dave Henschen is responsible for the line showing made by the wrest- lers and boxers, and it is expected that he will turn out better and larger teams in the future. 110-115 x inul.s Kolpiis, Second at Iowa Gkertz IOSBAKER V.

In this respect, Davenport has long taken second place to Moline and Rock Island in their annual games. However, with Hall and Hinchliffe at the helm this year, we showed those across the river what real cheering was. These leaders, by their pep and per- sonality, contributed in no small way to the football team’s success. The Thanksgiving game was a revelation of spirit and loyalty. We all hope that this spirit, so suc- cessfully awakened by these two leaders, will continue to lend an invaluable support to our teams on the field.

At the Iwginning of the season four teams wcic chosen—a 10 B team, a 10 A team and a Junior team and a Senior team. The first game of the season was played on February 24. During the season two games a week were scheduled and played, each of the four teams playing two games. In all of the games the Seniors, captained by Harriet Bendixen, carried off tlie honors, altlKuigh in sever- al cases the other teams gave them a haid battle.

An enrollment of one hundred and nine, the largest in the school’s history, marked the opening of the class work in the fall. Seventy-five toys entered the preliminaries in declamation. To properly train this mass of material as well as the girls, an addition to the coaching force seemed imperative. To fill this need Miss Gertrude Johnson, an experienced teacher in this field of work, was engaged. Thus, the individual training has been made more thorough, systematic and general than ever before. As the department grows new activities are being addl'd. Contracts have been made with Clinton for contests in declamation and extemporaneous speaking si- milar to the tri-city arrangement. Another year we hope to have eight debating teams instead of four, the second set of four to to designated second teams, with a definite schedule and definite training program. Participation in the state ex- temporaneous speaking contest, Itcgun this year, will doubtless to made a perman- ent part of the work. These activities are the public outlet of the fundamentals taught and practiced in class. A. E. Keiber.

H. S. turned a page in its history, and once more has that page been filled with honors by D. H. S. declaimers, debaters, et omnes. Early in the season the work in declamation began. Davenport put six of its best speakeis against Rock Island and easily proved its mettle by winning both in Rock Island and in Daven- port. Davenport’s representatives at Rock Island were: Eugene Carl- quist, Louis Carroll, and Edwaid Jones; at Davenport, Philip Adler, Otis Wiese, and Ben Simon. Out of this group, I ouis Carroll and Philip Adler were chosen to represent the D. H. S. in the Big Eight and Iowa Nine Boys’ Declamatory contests, icspectively, Carroll taking first place in the Big Eight league, while Adler showed up creditably in the Iowa Nine league. Following closely, the Tri-City Girls’ Declamation contest was held, but the Fates decreed that they should lose. The girls who entered for D. H. S. were: Fanny Bobb, Dorothy Davis, and Dorothy Wohnrade, at Davenport; and Helen Warner, Alma Macrorie. and Bernice Mac Dougall, at Rock Island, Helen Warner and Dorothy Davis being chosen to represent the school in the Iowa Nine and Big Eight Declama- tory contests, respectively. Neither girl placed, however. Debating came next in the calendar of events, and as chance would have it, the question in both leagues was: “Resolved: that the City Manager plan of government is the most desirable form for American cities”. Davenport placed exceptionally strong teams in both the Big Eight and the Iowa Nine contests. Ihe Big Eight Affirmative team was composed of Eugene Carlquist (leader), Robert Shorey, and Lowell Phelps. The Big Eight Negative team was led by Otis Wiese, the other members of the team being Robert Barker and Rita Ringel. The Iowa Nine Affirma- tive claimed as its members, Howard Brandenburg (leader), Lowell Phelps, and George Strath .'.an; while the Iowa Nine Negative was as fol- lows: Louis Carroll (lcadei). Frank Hodgdon, and Leeland Moorhead. Both negatives took the lead in the Inter-Team contests. The Big Eight teams by defeating Rock Island and Moline, went into the finals. In the finals, the affirmative met Monmouth, while the negative met Geneseo. Both teams were victorious, and the Bronze Plaque was returned to the D. H. S. The Iowa Nine teams emerged from the preliminaries by de- feating Muscatine, in the finals the affirmative met Ottumwa, while the negative contested with Grinncll. With both teams in fine shape, the championship was easily won. To close this very successful year, Davenport made a clean sweep of all Extemporaneous honois. A five man team, composed of Rita Ringel, Page 1 IS Louis Carroll, Howard Brandenburg, Robert Barker and Leeland Moor- head, defeated a similiar team from Clinton. Davenport took the first five places and scored fifty-two points to Clinton’s one hundred and thir- teen. Another five man team defeated Rock Island by a score of seventy to ninety-five. Davenport was represented in this contest by Otis Wiese, Eugene Carlquist, Howard Brandenburg, Frank Hodgdon and Lawrence Andrews. Otis Wiese and Howard Brandenburg were chosen to represent the D. H. S. in the Big Fight and Iowa Nine, respectively. Both repre- sentatives took fust places, biinging to a close another successful for- ensic year. DOUBLE COLD D Eugene Carlqukt Otk L.

THE PROFESSOR OF MILITARY SCIENCE AND TACTICS Major Robert Carmody Major Roliert Carmody lias been in command of the Davenport unit ol' the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps for two years, and during this period lie lias increased the D. H. S. organization from two companies to a battalion. Through his efforts and organization, the D. H. S. command has been placed in competi- tion as an honor unit for the United States. He has gradually built up an “es- prit de corps”, and has extensive plans for the future of the unit. The Major is an efficient commandant, an officer who started in the ranks. He has served with the cavalry in Mexico and tlie artillery in France. The reviews, the decora- tion ceremony, and the parades, all prove the confidence and standing of his or- ganization with corps area headquarters, as well as with the community. THE SERGEANT INSTRUCTOR Sergeant Arthur Kali. Sergeant Arthur Kali has been identified with the D. H. S. command since its organization in 1918. Better known as the old soldier”, he has trained every member of the unit from the recruit stage through the Junior year of the course in the basic work in musketry, infantry drill, and school of the soldier. The Sergeant has worked faithfully and efficiently to secure the present status of the unit There is none in the battalion, from the man in ranks to the line officer, who is not a friend of the Sergeant. He has served in the army for almost thir- ty years, through the Philippines, Mexico, Chinese Wars, and France, and in many commissioned grades. He is the true type of soldier.

H. S., has been a dominant factor in the school life of most of the young men of this institution. Although organized three years ago, and classified as a Junior Unit, many of the original “bucks” who formed the nucleus of the first crude organization are still doing active duty. The work this year was l egun promptly and without undue delay as the battalion organization had been already effected. Soon after the preliminary duties of the season had been executed, and temporary offi- cers had been appointed, the unit was inspected by Major W. G. Jones of the Seventh Corps Area Headquarters. The impression made by the men was excellent. The spirit shown was a manifestation of the true Onward Davenport Spirit. Major Jones gave unstinted praise to the appearance and morale of the battalion. No attempt was made to stage a formal exhibition but Major Jones was given an opportunity to observe the daily work of instruction in the Corps. All subjects were covered as part of the general review and the inspection schedule was arranged according to the regular hours of atten- dance. Page 120 Page 121 Another laurel for the D. H. S. unit was gained when the R. 0. T. C. Rifle team carried off first honors for the Seventh Corps Area Match with the record breaking score of 5312 out of a possible 6(X)0. The team will receive a cup valued at one hundred and eighty doliare for this work. As social events to enliven school life and to raise revenue the R. 0. T. C. pep dances have been very, or entirely, successful. These dances held Friday afternoons at a charge of ten cents per person were the means of raising over seventy dollars for the treasury of the Khaki Klub. Although it is not known at present whether the D. II. S. unit is classed as an honor unit, it is said to be an almost certain award for next year. At the beginning of the year, the unit was designated by corps area headquarters as the troops to assist in the presentation of a war medal. The Republic of France had awarded the Medaille d’ Honneur to John C. Tunnicliff, a Davenport man. The ceremony took place on the levee front and was witnessed by over a thousand people. The battalion was drawn up in line facing the man to be decorated. The citation was read, after which Major Carmody pinned on the medal. The corps pre- sented arms and then was received in review by Major Carmody and Lieutenant Tunnicliff. The Military Rail, a social event of March, was attended by a small but enthusiastic group from the unit in uniform. This was the leading affair of the year for the corps.

Ballard —commonly and profanely known as “Bil- liard”—with his rapid fire self-filler for your next cannibal festival. If by any word, look, thrust or other method of arousing your ire, he has stepped too heavily upon those toes you so unsuspect- ingly left in the aisle, and you think or think you think that you are desirous ol words—or more—with him, the editor begs to announce that he may l e found in the office of the Black hawk at any time during his office hours which are from eleven forty-five to a quarter of twelve every morning except Monday. The editor assumes no responsi- bility for what might happen if you should accidentally find him at this time, and presents herewith Senor Ballard’s terms of combat, namely, your choice of billiard balls at forty five yards, or hand grenades at Christmas; in the latter case he reserves but eight blocks start. The editor-in-chief will act as Senor Ballard’s second, and all communications should be ad- dressed to him. Meanwhile, let us bring on the music and drive in unison the following chorus from the pen of some unknown Solomon. Ready, Mr. Orchestra? The wisest men That e’er you’d ken Have never deemed it treason. To rest a bit, To jest a bit, To balance up their reason; To laugh a bit, To chaff a bit, To joke a bit in season. Page 15S We ask no mercy for the gags That cut, or those that merely stung. We care not if we hit you where The texture of your garments lightly hung! Neither do we crave the pardon Of each hopeless, luckless one Who scans each page in vain to find His name in jest or pun. What though the tenor of our humor Was twice strained It straineth us who gave If, straining you who took. We only add, we’re glad If these bum breaks have made you sad As us who made the book. I had a little dog, His name was August; He was fond of jumping at conclusions, Especially cow’s conclusions: But one day he jumped at a mule’s conclusion. The next day was the first of September. Page 154 THE LIAR We simply must fill up another page with guff, pot-pourri or bunk, or all three. So we conducted a little contest around Room 29 to find out what to call this particular page, and for obvious reasons, considering the author and all, we have decided to call it The Liar. Here are some of the other names suggested: Thk Mink—Sometimes a little dirty. Thk Tire—Sometimes a little flat. Try Her—Sometimes a bit disappointing. The Choir—Chanting the dead ones. NOW THAT IS OVER WITH, LET’S OPEN A BOTTLE OF INK AND MAKE THINGS WRITE. They say that Professor Colletti, a memory specialist in the History Dept, is so absent minded that if he comes home late with an umbrella, he puts it to bed and stands up in the corner. First a little song entitled, “The High School Belles are Peeling,” sung through a certain southeast window after a Demo, swimming party. Words and opera glasses by “Cootie” HinchlifTe. Not all the philosophers in school are on the faculty. For instance, Jim, the Janitor, says, “Women are fickle—you don't have ’em till they’re in the grave and then they aren’t no use.” We quite agree with him. A freshie came up to us and asks, “Why is my instructor like a donkey?” Well, just because he is one, it is none of our business. Page 155 IF — FOF GJFLS By a Sinic (Bundles of apologies to Woodyard Kindling) If you can keep the men when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself with men who doubt you And give them reason for more doubting too; If you can make them wait and yet not mind the waiting. Or being copied, start a brand new fad, If you can dress and so increase your rating. And yet don’t look too good, nor act too bad, If you can step and not make sleep your master, If you can cram with “E Record” not your aim, If you can meet with quiz and like disaster And treat all such impostors just the same; If you can bear to hear the words you’ve spoken Used by teachers to show what not to do, Or get late themes excused, My pen was broken,” When some one else had written them for you, If you can make a bunch of dates at finals And take your chance at Flunk or Pass, And lose and start right in again beginning, Explaining that you really like the class”; If you can force your powder, rouge or lip-stick To serve you long when nature's touch is gone, And so hold men when there is nothing to you Save the vanity which says, “Hold on”; If neither man nor Derry can ever scare you. If all men flirt with you and some too much, If you will only speak to men who fare you With dinners, parties, and the likes of such, If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty second’s worth of gossip mean Yours is success and everything that’s in it And which is less—you’ll be a Campus Queen.

(Kilter studes. Three minutes later. Prof. Connell enters room, goes back to study mom for the pencil he forgot, re-enters room, clears throat, scratches back of neck, bangs desk and flow of wisdom commences:) “I wish to call your attention to the last issue of the ‘North American Re- fuse’, page twenty-one. Here we have an article written by myself on the Physiographical Importance of the Tapeworm to Mankind.’ I expect to have this translated into Chinese soon, so if any of you find it difficult to read you may read in it in a more familiar tongue if you wait a few weeks. (Shows teeth and grins; class takes cue and laughs heartily.) I originated this idea in N ’Awleans. You will remember that 1 have told you of the time when I was there and of Caruso’s salary. It was at this time that I received letters from Roosevelt, Jack Johnson, Wellington Koo, Eugene Debs, Bill Haywood and Mack Sennett ofFering to make a presidential boom for me. 1 refused, as you know, because I like to be among young people. (IBooks at girls and smiles. Realizies his mistake and continues.) “Now, as I was about to say, this policy spoken of in the ‘North American Refuse’ reminds me of my trip to England. It was shortly after I published my book on Efficiency in conjunction with Mr. Underwood, that the King of England wrote me personally and requested that I come over and investigate the factory conditions. “Speaking of efficiency, one of the most exasperating things in the world is to find that you have forgotten in which pocket you have placed some article of importance. During the past three months I have been perfecting an efficient system which effectually overcomes any difficulty which may be encountered.” And so on ad infinitum until the bell rings, studes rouse themselves and file past Prof. Connell, who is now hunting for his pencil and record book to meet the next class in an efficient manner.

(With lots of feeling in his stomach—lie has had no lunch) “Yes, that is, I am buying it in price but his nibs will only let me keep it until next day.” Q.—“Can I help you pick it out, George?” (Moritz sneaks up on unsuspecting George with a coat and envelops him in it. It fits the King like socks on a rooster.) “Now how is that? Nice and snug over the shoulders.” K.—“How does it look, Sis, 1 want a regular looking outfit so I won’t get mixed up with the orchestra.” Q.—“It’s not bad George, honestly.” Moritz—“Now really, you’ll have a regular fit in that suit.” K.—“Who wouldn’t have a regular fit to he seen in a suit like this—Sis, please be honest and give me your real opinion of this suit.” Q.—“Really, George, it’s splendid, and you have such a girlish figure to begin with.” K.—(IBooks in mirror, dubious expression changes to one of pathos.) “Say, I look like a fountain pen.

This seems to relieve his troubles. K.—“Let’s eat.' (Curtain) Page 159 VISIBLE JOKES For the benefit of those with a stunted or undeveloped sense of humor, we append herewith a series of unparalleled presumptions upon the intelligence of the unfoitunate subscribers. The expository explo- sions of wit have been compiled with great effort by one of our most bril- liant collectors of intellectual eccentricities. They were collected from some of our inmates when the collaborator was suffering from a slight re- lapse, though we rejoice to inform the gentle and likewise dear reader that he has since regained some vestiges of sanity. The humor is of a na- ture too intricate for the average personality and the point of each and every spasm is therefore explained in detail. The more subtle points are more fully explained in the foot notes. Careful study of the above species of humor presented herewith will make a misogynist of even the most JOKE 1 (Riddle) Q.—Why is an elephant like a piano? A.—Because there is a B in both. Note: The B lias no reference whatsoever to either the elephant or the piano, but to the word “both” whose initial letter is B. This is a prominent example of one of our best types of so-called humor. It is known as the Misplaced Kick Variety. Laugh is optional. JOKE III Prof. McClellen: How did nitrates (night rates) originate? Sleepy Stude: In a hotel. Note: The dual role played by the important word is cleverly designated by parenthesis. The point depends upon the misunder- standing or the misconstrued inter- pretation of the original intention. calloused reader. We thank you. JOKE II (Coarse Joke) Q.—What course do you expect to graduate in? A.—In the course of time. Note: This course is not listed in the curriculum. It is merely an idiomatic expression used by the hoi polloi. Laughter. JOKE IV (Riddled) Q.—Why is a sidewalk like a barn? A.—Because they are both cold in winter. Note I: Sidewalks often become very cold in winter. This often causes cracking of the cement. (Conditions may lye noted at 2104 Main Street. Take Vander Veer Park car.) Note II: Barns are often un- heated during the most rigorous winter months. Note: Special copies of the Feature Section may be obtained in Room 29 at slight additional cost. These specials are doubly annotated and expurgated, every detail of every gag being fully explained. These are especially acceptable gifts to give to Scotch relatives. Page 160 THE TAIL OF A BLACK HAWK OR THE CRIMSON EMERALD (Editor’s footnote—This appendix is append- ed for those who desire to find out what hap- pened after the marriage of the hero and hero- ine.) Hanson approached Lady De Parsons and with saprophytic satisfaction he raked her over the coals. Presently he put away the rake. The cast is died, he cried. I mean the die is cast. You sought to deceive me. You ordered soft coal instead of coke and used the change to buy a frame for your typewriting diploma.” “Tis true,” she billowed, as he waved her aside. Sea,” he foamed, “you shall not eat any more of my salt.” But she had no kick coming—he fed her on near-beer. She threw a schooner at him and sailed out of the room. They both told it to the judge. Judge didn’t appreciate the joke so he sent them up for life. Life wouldn’t buy it because there wasn’t any Indian Guide to the proceeding. So they sold their story to the Black hawk and lived happily ever after—their divorce. TAIL END “Everything is going with a bang this Spring,” said “Glad”, as she plied the shears around her head. “I've got that down Pat,” said the nurse as she put the castor oil bottle in her grip and left Crowe’s house. “That can be seen from both sides,” said the fly as he left his mark on the window pane. “A little bit of that goes a long way,” said the horse as he kicked Brncclin over the cliff. A friend in need is a friend to avoid.

It applies to the method by which the field is covered and how these results are assembled and prepared for the reading public. The scope of the Daily Times is not Davenport alone, nor Rock Island, nor Moline; but it is the Tri-Cities as a unit. To adequately cover the local fields of these three cities, The Times maintains ofTiccs in both Illinois cities in conjunction with its home plant in Davenport. Each of these branch offices are headed by a manager, while the newsgathering is under the direction of a city editor and a reportorial staff. In the national and international news field, The Times is a member of the Associated Press, which is represented in every city or borough on the globe, all of whom arc connected up by messenger, wire, cable, and radio com- munication. Local news, sports, comics, Idle Thoughts”, and fea- tures are other departments which make up the broad scope of THE TIMES In the Tri-Cities Nearly Everybody Reads The Daily Times.

H. S. man “how to make love” is to insult him, to at- tack his intelligence. It is Bud Druryean in its impertinence and therefore not to be swallowed. Briefly—we D. H. S. men are all adepts at the gentle art of making love. If you have ever heard the subject discussed at the Woman's Club meetings you have probably heard it contended that we know scarcely anything else. Our own superiority in the field of sentiment is well known. When anyone proposes to pontificate on it we sniff and reach for our hats. I intend to mention, however, a few of the more salient point� of our own methods, if for no other reason than that of contributing to the happiness of our brethren at Moline, Rock Island, West, “J. B.” and Sudlow Intermediates. When spring comes round, an in- creased emigration is noticed from these educational institutions. The reason for this is obvious: The girls at these schools can not en- dure the way their men make love. The reason for this may quickly be pointed out easily enough. Their men are romantic lovers. And by the word “romantic”, I mean of course, that method of making love best exemplified by such heroes of the heart as Rodolph Valentino and Wallace Reid. We men at D. H. S. are what may be appropriately termed “realists” (Continued on page 185) Page 178 rkmccrs Since 1872 1 --------- • 50 YEARS OF VICE—Davenport, Ia. WEBSTER Defines a Pioneer as One Who Goes Before to Prepare the Way. Surely this defini- tion applies in a very forcible manner to the steady development of this great store, which came into existence in Davenport just 50 years ago. Established in 1872 with only a few hundred doliare capital, lx set on all sides by the troublesome times and unsettled business conditions existing at the close of the Civil War period, it could only live and thrive by the utmost practice of honesty and business integrity. Never having lost sight of these principles, which have ever been the dominating characteristics of all pioneers who builded for the future, this Store today, after fifty years of continuous growth, is a pioneer leading and preparing the way, and stand- ing in this community for all that is l est in our community, state and national life—now ready to start on another 50 years of pioneering and another 50 years of service.

T{ew Location 120% West Third Street ECKERMAN STUDIO (Continued from page 178) and I suggest that our methods be sedulously copied if for no other reason than to keep the women at this school. The trouble with “Rudic” is that he emphasizes the insignificant de- tails of love making. Unfortunate- ly, the men at the other institu- tions are imitating him and are not getting away with it. For in- stance, Valentino and his disciples all do a great deal of unnecessary talking before they get to such insignificant endearments as “my dear” or “little Eskimo Pic” or I'm strong for you” et cetera. While the target for the vocabu- lary of one of these sentimental romanticists stands in the center of the room, he will walk round and round her all the while, sing- ing her praises, and all the while getting closer and closer. This is absurd. If a D. H. S. man pulled this sort of stufF, he would drive his girl to nervous prostration. If we followed this course here, we would have to take a post-gradu- ate course before we could get ac- quainted well enough to hold her hand. When the romanticist pro- longs a simple sentimental in- stance so it brings on “ennui” even to the most patient female, we men at D.H. S. efFect the same result by murmuring our “noth- ings” in one or two snappy and well-chosen phrases. The result is that all our women are happy and radiate a smiling optimism about life which stands in decided con- trast to the bored and ennuied look of the Moline and Rock Island women. To see one of these indi- viduals become happy and con- tended after a sojourn at D. H. S. is really beautiful. Page 185 When you think of GOOD COAL- think of BLOCK.
