Marshal PAGE TWENTY-ONE To the Class of 1923 It hardly seems possible that you are upon the threshold ready for your final exit as high school students. But the years have sped and your work here is finished. You have a new world before you—full of opportunity and abounding in possibilities for every thing that is fine and noble in life, and successful in occupation. You have learned many lessons in this high school—not all of them from books—and I trust that these are going to be a part of the fiber of your lives. I believe that some standards have been established, and some ideals formed that will go far toward making you good and useful men and women. So- ciety needs such, and it is within your power to be individual forces for right thinking and right living. As a class you have contributed your share of interest and ability to the various activities of the school. In many of these you have been leaders, and you go with my best wishes for success into the larger life which you are about to undertake. I hope that the years you have spent within these walls will be happy memories, just as I hope that the years to come will be freighted with success and honor. Sincerely your friend, GEO. EDW.

H. SM has been a distinguished body, for it opened its career as a sophomore class, the first in the school's history to he thus designated upon its entrance. The members of the class immediately proved that they were Sophomores in fact as well as in name by entering enthu- siastically into every school activity and by adapting themselves to their new environment with a facility and a dignity that challenged comparison with the more experienced sophomore classes of other years. The high standard established by the class during its first year has been maintained throughout the three years of its existence. It does not seem an exaggeration to say that “23 has succeeded in concentrat- ing within its shortened span of school life all the activities, honors, and accomplishments to which previous classes have devoted four years. Socially, the class’ career has been one of remarkable achievements. The Football and Spring dances and the Senior excursion were red- letter days on the school’s social calendar. The graduates include those who for some time have been the chief support of the literary and forensic activities of the school. Their numerous successes reflect added distinction upon the senior class. The record of the organization in athletics could be dwelt on at length; but it is enough to say that the nucleus of the teams on grid- iron. track, and court have been Seniors whose efforts and abilities have honored themselves, their class, and their school. The achievements of the class of ’23 are after all but a reflection of the ability and fine character of its individual members. Every senior student by his good conduct and cooperation has added to the lustre of the class name. The finest compliment that can be accorded the class is that it has maintained the high standards established by a long line of successful classes and that it is able so well to carry forth into the world the ideals and the spirit of the school.

To chronicle in full the deeds and glories of this class would be a task far beyond the ability of the Junior editor and would exceed the small space allotted to such a duty by the envious senior editor. When we entered the portals of Davenport High school in the fall of 1922 it was as if a new and unconquerable spirit had arrived. With every branch of High school activities, you will find 1924 prominently and honorably identified. Looking down the lengthy honor list at the worthies of the present Junior class, we find the athletes Ekstrand, Jebens, Rashid, and Rohlf; the extemporaneous speakers Beeson, Craven, Foutz, Lebo, Moorhead and Neuman. The Junior class is prominent on the Blackhawk staff and in all the activities. Earl Skiff, a Junior, headed the R. 0. T. C. for the spring semester of 1923. A long procession of prominent students of D. H. S. follow under the blue and gold of the class of 1924. It is a well known fact that when a Junior dance is given much pep and hilarity are in evidence. Both the Mystery Dance and the Basketball Dance helped to establish this precedent. As to the future of the class of ’24”—“Just Watch ’Em ” MARJORIE THROOP, 24. Junior Editor. PAGE SIXTY-TWO Sophomores The Sophomore Class Another year finds us, the “Freshies” of Davenport High, without organization. For this reason we may not make a very impressive showing on the pages of this Year Book. However, as other classes have surmounted this handicap, we trust that we may also. The feelings of awe, attending our entrance through these majestic portals, are rapidly subsiding in favor of a growing interest in the various phases of High school life. We are, literally speaking, in the indistinct and uncertain morning of life. The molding of our future depends, more than we realize, upon the use we make of our present opportunities. The facts that during our High School years we meet our fellow students on terms of equality, and that we are judged in ac- cordance with our personal ability, should in themselves constitute an inducement, sufficiently strong to rouse ambitions in each of us. Edu- cation, prized above all other worldly possessions, is placed within our grasp. Realizing that we shall not pass this way again, let us not pro- crastinate. Without organization we have not, as a class, enjoyed social gather- ings, but we are beginning to realize that we are an integral part of this institution and to be proud of it. Thus our interests are con- stantly more closely and more firmly interwoven,—each day bringing new incentive to wear worthily the mantle left us by those who blazed the trail. Eagerly we are looking forward to the time when as Juniors, and finally as Seniors, we will take our rightful place as an organized group ever faithful to D. H. S.—ever striving to uphold and maintain its precepts and traditions. “THE SOPHOMORE CLASS”. PAGE SIXTY-THREE PAGE SIXTY-FOUR Publications Miss Bissell To the Class of 1923: High School days are over!

PAGE SIXTY-FIVE AL LI NI) Managing Editor WALTER HANSON Business Manager The Annual of 1923 The Annual of 1923 represents the efforts of the entire Senior class. If it were not for the cooperation of each and every member of the class, it would be nearly impossible to publish a year book of this sort. Another big thing in the publishing of a year book is the co- operation that is offered by the members of the staff. If bouquets are to be presented for such cooperation, the students on the 1923 Annual staff should have the appearance of a living flower garden. But there are no flowers to present, only these words of thanks. At any rate, words are cheaper than flowers and they don’t wilt so quickly. Perhaps the greatest difficulty that the heads of an annual publica- tion have to master is the matter of finance. Thanks to Pluto, the gold in the coffers this year was just enough to foot our bills. There was none to spare. And in closing this paragraph we wish to thank the various business men who offered their financial and moral support. AL LUND PAGE SIXTY-SIX PAGE SIXTY-SEVEN The Blackhawk One of the steady, dependable features of school life has been “The Blackhawk”. Since its inception it has portrayed campus life, activi- ties of all natures for its readers. The season of 1922-1923 has been the continuance of just such a record althongh with increased facilities for the readers of the papers. News which occurs on the same day as The Blackhawk is published— a thing impossible for the old Bulletin (predecessor of The Blackhawk) or for the earlier Blackhawks. The management of The Blackhawk has endeavored to run true to the principles of journalism as practiced by the true newspapers. In recognition of these efforts and their attainment The Blackhawk was judged to be the best school paper in the state of Iowa. This was in a contest conducted by the Central Inter-Scholastic Press Association. FRED SPEERS. page sixty-eight PAGE SIXTY-NINE PAGE SEVENTY Annual Sales People Annual Sales People MAX WEAVER Capt.

T. C. was still in its infancy. Since that time the local unit has been developed into one of the best out- fits in the country. Major Carmody leaves Davenport for good at the close of the spring semester. During his brief stay here he has been active in everything which has been of interest to the school at large; and his influence has been felt in all the life of the school. PAGE SEVENTY-FOUR MAJOR BALLINOER Major Ballinger has been at the High school for only two months, but in that time he has done a great deal for the local R. 0. T. C. He has had a great deal of army experience and in the years to come he should be able to uphold Davenport’s unit as a crack outfit. Major Ballinger will be in full charge of the R. 0. T. C., activities here next year as Major Carmody leaves in Spring. PAGE SEVENTY-FIVE SERGEANT HAUL When Sergeant Kahl goes on the pension list this summer, the army, and incidentally the Davenport R. O. T. C. will lose a valuable man. The sergeant, The Big Mogul , as he is called by every man in the unit, has been here since the R. O. T. C. was first organized. During the time in which the sergeant has been here, five com- mands have come and gone. The brunt of the labor of the organiza- tion has always fallen on the sergeant; but he has always done it with a smile. page sevenTy-s� X PagU sKvKnTy-sevHn Company A Company B Company C Company D PAGE SEVENTY-EIGHT The Battalion THE R. O. T. C COMMISSIONED OFFICERS OF THE BATTALION The Reserve Officers’ Training: Corps of the Davenport High school has been a dominant factor in our school life. The military organiza- tions made their appearance four years ago and were classified as a Junior Unit. The original bucks” who formed the nucleus of the first organization have long been graduated. The initial work of the unit was promptly begun and in a little time an effective battalion was organized. The preliminary duties of the temporary officers were appointed by Major W. G. Jones of the 7th Corps Area Headquarters. The Davenport High school showed its real spirit by the excellent way in which it took up this new work. Without a doubt, the military units of the Davenport High school are the finest in the country. At least, that is the opinion of the military officers that have inspected our units within the past year. PAGE SEVENTY-NINE PAGE EIGHTY “Hot Stuff T aj. SKiff lll t at Si ile Capt. I iiyaler Stor« ii t)$ Oato c H o� ve it 'Juat Officers PAGE EIGHTY-ONE PAGE EIGHTY-TWO Activities School Activities The activities of the school present the actual life of it. If the activities are dead, well, the school is a corpse. Davenport High school is a long way from being a corpse. The undertakers haven’t even put it on their prospective list. That speaks well for our activities. Mem- bers of our activities have certain obligations that they must perform. If they do them honestly and cheerfully, we have a real school; if not, well, you know the story of the cat and the salmon can. Several of our activities have won national recognition in events entered. Others have been satisfied to remain at home and function among the students. School activities should be organized for the betterment of the school. When they cease doing that, a school is lost. We can honestly say, that Davenport High school is not a “lame duck”.

PAGE ONE HUNDRED TWO Society Society The social orders of the Davenport High school may be greatly out- numbered by those that are in other high schools of the same size, but there is a reason. Not how much but how good. That’s the reason. Postum is not the name of Davenport High school societies, either. Nor were they extracted from the bean. They were extracted from the swarm of social orders that were functioning last year. And Prin- cipal Marshall was the chief extractor. Too many societies in a school generally means that something is being neglected. Studies are, usu- ally, the first thing on the list. A little bird told Principal Marshall one morning that such a thing was happening. That was around the first days of the fall semester. Well, those that survived the extrac- tion process are ones that you will view on the following pages.

Working all season under the handicap of not having had a real chance to get acquainted with his material. Madden is to be com- mended for what he accomplished, rather than to be blamed for what was left undone. The amount of available material was smaller than it had been for several seasons; while the number of men eligible to play in all games was smaller still. Everything considered. Coach Madden is deserving of no small amount of commendation for the results which he accomplished. PAGE ONE THIRTEEN Review of Year Everything considered, the football squad of 1923 went through a successful season. Five games won, three lost, and one tied were the results achieved by coach Madden’s warriors. Starting off the season, Davenport defeated West Liberty by a score of 20 to 3. This conflict was so one-sided that on the following Saturday the Red and Blue warriors bowed before the heavy Colum- bus Junction outfit by a score of 19 to 9. Over-confidence and a lack of driving power were the factors that robbed Davenport of victory. In the next game the team was more successful. On this occa- sion they humbled the speedy Clinton aggregation by a score of 10 to 0. In the game at Iowa City one week later, the locals were sub- dued for the second time of the season when the Red and White of the University town put over a touchdown early in the first quarter for the only counters in the game. The count at the end of this game was 7 to 0. The next clash, that with Galesburg, was won by Davenport. The heavy Galesburg backs were unable to pierce the Davenport line suc- cessfully, while the local backfield men piled up twenty points. The count at the end was 20 to 0. In the Davenport-North High, Des Moines game on the following week-end, the Davenport eleven whipped the North staters by a score of 6 to 0. The fact that the game was played on a wet, slippery field, prevented the local outfit from piling up a larger score on the Capitol city eleven. The Rock Island game, which was played here one week later, resulted in a 0 to 0 tie. Davenport kept the Islanders on the defen- sive most of the time, but lacked the punch to push over a touch- down. Rock Island, touted as an almost certain loser put up a desper- ate fight all the way; and so well did the Red and Blue strive, that at the final whistle the score was still 0 to 0. PAGE ONE FOURTEEN The 16 to 6 beating which the Davenporters handed to the Ot- tumwa eleven one week later, seemed to boost the hopes of the local fans that the Red and Blue would stand a good chance of defeating Moline on Turkey Day. The Thanksgiving day clash, however, dispelled all hopes for a Tri-city championship for the Red and Blue; as in this tilt, the Dav- enport eleven went down before the “Swedes” by a score of 32 to 0. No Alumni was played during the season of 1922 as the schedule was to crowded to permit it. The football year closed with the annual football banquet and at that time the election of the next season’s captain was held. Cleo Brookhart was the choice for pilot. Taking all in all, the season of 1922 was more than quite success- ful; and the men of the squad of '22 may point with pride to their season’s work. PAGE ONE FIFTEEN WALDVOGLE (End) “Larry” Waldvogle, end and cap- tain of the 1923 eleven, played a strong game all season. His work on a wing was very valu- able and his loss well be keenly felt by next year’s team. TULLIS (End) Tullis at right end on the Red and Blue machine of 1923 was one of the most valuable mem- bers of the squad. His hard fighting and consistent perfor- mances helped greatly to keep Davenport in the running. WUNSCHEL (Tackle) “Big Gus”, playing his first year of High School football, dis- played such fine stuff that in his remaining two years he should find little trouble in becoming an all-state man. ItKOOKIIART (Halfback) Brookhart, captain-elect of the 1924 squad, was the hardest man on the team for an opponent to stop. His habit of tearing through the line for five or more yards at a time proved very dis- concerting to opponents. PAGE ONE SIXTEEN 31ACKEEYEK (Fullback) Mackeever, at full, was Daven- port’s steadiest gainer through the line. When a yard was needed badly, “Mac” could al- ways be relied upon to make it. (’A31P (Quarterback) Jimmy Camp, pilot of the 1923 outfit, was the most consistent point earner on the team. His kicking ability, coupled with his knack of skirting the ends for long gains, accounted for most of the points chalked up by the Red and Blue. HKRZBERG (Tackle) Herzberg was shifted from tackle to guard early in the sea- son. He did so well at the guard position that he became indis- pensable to the squad in that capacity. OLIVET (Guard) Oluey started the season on the second string but his ability on the line soon brought him to the first team. Here he performed yeoman service on the line through the season. PAGE ONE SEVENTEEN ECKSTRANH (Halfback) Eckstrand was rated as cne of the best halves in the Tri-Cities in 1923. He was usually able to reel off long gains around the ends when called upon to per- form. LcBUIIX (Center) “Jake” LeBuhn, at the pivot po- sition on the squad of 23 was practically a fixture. His great work on the defense was respon- sible for the failure of many a hostile play. EXGLEIf ART (Tackle) Englehart, with his 175 pounds of brawn was a great stumbling block in the paths of Daven- port’s opponents. His work on the line pulled the Red and Blue out of many a tight place. FLETCHER (Center) Fletcher, substitute center cn the team, worked under the handicap of having an excepti- onally good man on the regular pivot. He. however, played good ball in every game which he en- tered. PAGE ONE EIGHTEEN WHITE (Halfback) White, although not a regular member of the first string played a good brand of ball whenever he entered a game. His work, especially in the Moline game showed to good advantage. NORDSTROM (Fullback) Nordstrom contested the full- back job with Mackeever, all through the season. When he played the team seemed to re- gain confidence and drive harder than they had before. ltASIIII) (Halfback) Rashid, although he did nothing sensational in the grid line was a steady plugger whose work showed in every game which he entered. He was a member of the first string by reason of his ability to worm through the line when a gain seemed almost im- possible. DO A ROMAN (Guard) Boardman, although not a flashy player, was a hard trier and a man who got results. His con- sistent performance at a guard berth showed him to be one of the most valuable members of the squad of '23. PAGE ONE NINETEEN PAGE ONE TWENTY Football Squad Basketball COACH BORNHOLM1 “Newts” Bornholdt, basketball coach, is known by practically every student of the Davenport High School. In his years as a coach at this school he has not turned out a team, of which the student body could not speak of with pride. This year’s team was no exception. With inexperienced men, he developed a team which went thru a very credible season; winning ten out of fifteen games played. The students of the class of ’23 are all for “Newts”; and it is their hope that all his teams will be at least as successful as was this year’s.

COACH Tin MHO During both the football and basketball seasons, Coach Glen Trumbo was right-hand man to Coaches Madden and Bornholdt. Coming to Davenport at the beginning of the grid season, he was in at the start of the football season. During the season he was in charge of the second string squad; and under his tutelage the scrubs made a wonderful showing. In the basketball work he was also in charge of the “scrubs”. While under Trumbo’s wing the seconds had little trouble in going through an unusual season. The work of a second team coach often passes unnoticed; but in the case of Mr. Trumbo much credit was given to him throughout the entire season. PAGE ONE TWENTY-TWO Basket Ball Year Perhaps the basketball season of 1922 can be called one of the most successful in the history of the school. Starting the season olF with a squad of green material, Coach Bornholdt had a big job in developing a laurel winning aggregation. Although the State honors were not added to the list of victories, the Red and Blue was regarded as one of the most formidable teams in the state. The first game of the season was the tilt with Centerville which the Red and Blue won by a 21 to 17 score. Wilton came next on the schedule and the locals had little trouble in downing the small-town boys with a 23 to 16 score. The winning of these two games made the Red and Blue basketball stock of unusual value. West Liberty proved to be small fry for the Davenporters in their 33 to 11 contest. The locals simply ran circles around their oppon- ents. Oskaloosa was next eliminated by a 17 to 14 score in a thrilling game. Thus far in the season, the Red and Blue remained unde- feated. The most bitter game of the season was on hand. But Rock Island weathered the storm and beat Davenport by a 21 to 17 tally. This was the Red and Blue’s first defeat. Another mark on the red ledger was the game with Geneseo. Davenport lost by a 30 to 28 count. Much pep was added to the Red and Blue hopes when Moline was beaten in the memorable battle that ended 16 to 8 in the locals’ favor. It was a fast game with plenty of fight. Clinton was the next victim and was beaten by a 25 to 4 count. Dubuque also proved to be easy pickings and was beaten by 23 to 17. Geneseo didn’t look so good when they played the locals for the second time. They were “walloped” by a 19 to 6 score. And “poor” Centerville, they found themselves in too fast a company. The final score was 35 to 21. On the Islanders second joust with the locals, they proved to be easy opponents. They lost, the papers say, by a 23 to 12 score. The last regular game of the season was with the Alumni. The final touch was 26 to 16. Davenport didn’t get very far at the state tournament. Iowa City nosed them out with a 12 to 9 score. PAGE ONE TWENTY-THREE PAGE ONE TWENTY-FOUR Basket Ball Squad EGGERT, Captain elect, (Guard) Eggert, next year’s captain, was one of the strongest guards in the Tri-cities. Very few for- wards succeeded in going past this tower of strength. He will be the big man on next season’s five. He was also a choice for a mythical All-tri-city five. JEBEXS, Captain, (Forward) Jebens, at a forward berth on the cage squad of ’23, was, by far, the highest piont earner on the team, His work in turning out much needed points staved off many a potential defeat. LESS (Guard) Less, the smallest man on the team, is one of the fastest floor men in the state. His selection as an All-tri-city guard met with approbation by all Tri-city fans. PAGE ONE TWENTY-FIVE DOLLERHIDK ((ditor) Dollerhide, as general utility man on the squad, was a good floor player. He worked hard at all times; and managed to give excellent support to the team. TULLIS (Center) Tullis, at the pivot job, was one of the “big guns” of the Red and Blue five. His floor work accounted for more than one Davenport victory. It was Tul- lis’ first season at basketball playing. CAMP (Forward) Camp, playing his first and last season of high school basketball, was a flashy performer. When he was in form, he was a hard man to stop. He should make a fine showing in college cage work. PAGE ONE TWENTY-SIX The Year In Track The track season of 1923, while not the most successful season ever experienced by a Red and Blue track team, was highly satisfac- tory when viewed from the standpoint of the amount of material, ex- perience, and natural ability of the men. The first important event of the track year was the Inter-class indoor meet which was captured by the Seniors by a wide point mar- gin. The Big 8 meet, at Moline, showed the local tracksters in a very poor light. Only two places were garnered by the Red and Blue ar- tists In this meet; and ten points were all that the Red and Blue were able to take home. Kinsler, in the low hurdles; and Hunn, in the mile run, were the two Davenport men who took the points. The reason that Davenport made such a wretched showing in this event was the fact that Phelps, Fredersdorf, Clayton, and Benson, four of Davenport’s crack speedsters, were out of the meet because of a nine semester ruling. In the Clinton meet, held two weeks after the Big 8”, the Red and Blue cinder path artists took a total of 51 points. In this meet all of Davenport’s men were eligible; and for this reason the team was able to pile a huge basket of points on the other entrants. At this meet Davenport captured firsts in the mile, half-mile, high hurdles, and hundred yard dash. Several third places were also taken by the locals. Third places in the half mile, mile, high jump, low hurdles, 100 yard dash, and 50 yard dash fell to the Red and Blue. While the rest of the team battled in the “Big 8” meet at Moline, Phelps and Fredersdorf traveled to Des Moines to compete in the meet there. In this meet Phelps took third in the half mile run, while Fredersdorf failed to place in the dashes. Several other men who did not do anything startlingly good in the track line, but who took part in every meet and turned out faith- fully for practice, deserve credit for their persistent efforts. Taken as a whole the season of ’23, althongh it produced no new records and gained very few laurels for the Red and Blue, may well be called a success when all the difficulties are considered. PAGE ONE TWENTY-SEVEN Track Squad PAGE ONE TWENTY-EIGHT The Wrestling Season Despite the fact that the members of the wrestling squad went through an entire season of work, they succeeded in putting on only two shows before local audiences. The first show, put on by the grapplers, was the most poorly attended affair ever staged by the local athletic association. This show was in the form of contests between the various con- testants in the different classes for the purpose of determining who should represent Davenport at the Iowa City meet. The result of this clash was that the following went to Iowa City. The Iowa City meet was not particularly successful for the local mat men as no one of them took a first place. The meet, held in the High school gym, between Davenport and Rock Island wrestlers, was the must interesting event of the season. In this meet Davenport triumphed by a count of 32 to 8. Five falls and one draw were taken by the Red and Blue men, while the Islanders took two decisions and one draw. In practically every tussle the Red and Blue men were able to throw their opponents in a very short time. Much of the credit for what was done in the mat line should go to Dave Henschen, who coached the squad. His work in building up a good mat team from material which was totally green is one of the athletic feats of the season of ’23. 95 pound class—Knecht. 105 pound class—Asman. 115 pound class—Rolfs. 125 pound class—Geertz. 135 pounds class- Bargmann. 145 pound class—Rashid. 165 pound class—Englehardt. PAGE ONE TWENTY-MNE PAGE ONE THIRTY Girls' JTtbleiics Girls’ Basket Ball Teams Seniors Juniors Sophomores PAGE ONE THIRTY-ONE Girls’ Basket Ball The 192.3 girls’ basketball season ended with the Sophomores, cap- tained by Evelyn Oaks, as champions. At the beginning of the season, ninety-seven girls turned out for practice. From this number, Miss Marie Weiss, physical director, chose three teams; a 10A team, Junior team and Senior team. During the season two games a week were scheduled, each of the four teams play- ing two games. The 10B team, although not able to continue its games throughout the season, showed much promise for next year. This team was not eligible to compete for the championship because of lack of time for practice. The outcome of the games were as follows: Seniors 4; Juniors 17. Seniors 5, Sophomores 13. Seniors 10; Juniors 6. Juniors 4; Sophomores 17. Seniors 7; Sophomores 21. Juniors 4; Sophomores 3. All the girls who were on the champion team will be awarded a gold “D”. The teams were: SENIORS M.

In brief the record is as follows: One hundred forty four students were enrolled in the classes at different periods throughout the year. One hundred and twenty six local con- tests were held. Of the twenty-five interscholastic contests in which the school’s representatives competed, we ranked first in fourteen, second in eight, third in one, while in only two contests did we rank lower than third. The record is important as an indication of the standard of the forensic activities of the school. It sets a pace that challenges the mettle of coming classes. —By A. E. Keiber.

A total of 144 students was enrolled and, as a con- sequence, competition for places on teams was unusually keen. First came declamations. A Davenport declamatory team, com- posed of Louis Carrol, George Strathmann, John Fohvell, David Foutz, Milton Petersen, and Howard Brandenburg defeated a boys' declama- tory team from Clinton by a score of 60 to 66. Another Davenport declamatory team, composed of Frank Hodgdon. Victor Schmidt, Max Weaver, Ernest Oman, Herbert Liberman and Joseph Lebo defeated Rock Island in the annual boys’ declamatory contest by a score of 62 to 65. Howard Brandenburg, representing us in the Iowa Nine, and Ernest Oman, in the Big Eight Declamatory Contest, took first place in their respective contests. In Girls’ Declamations, Davenport was un- successful. The team, composed of Dorothy Davis, Helen Boece, Ma- rion Kincaid, Velma Beal, Marion Risley, Helen Hull, and Bernice Mc- Dougall, lost to both Clinton and Rock Island. Dorothy Davis, and Helen Boege failed to place in the Iowa Nine and Big Eight contests, respectively. Next came debating. But one defeat marked Davenport’s schedule, but that defeat cost Davenport the Big Eight championship. The Iowa Nine affirmative, composed of Milton Petersen, David Foutz (Leader) defeated the Muscatine negative 2 to 1 in the district debate. At the same time the Iowa Nine negative, composed of Russell Beeson, Joyce Craven, Louis Carrol (Leader) defeated the Muscatine affirmative 3 to 0. In the final debates, the affirmative defeated Fairfield 3 to 0 and the negative defeated Oskaloosa 2 to 1. In the Big Eight Debates, the affirmative, composed of Woodson Dunning, Joseph Lebo, Frank Hodg- don (Leader) defeated Rock Island, 2 to 1, in the district and Gales- burg, 3 to 0, in the final debates. The negative, composed of Henry Neuman, Ray Fletcher, George Strathman (Leader) defeated Moline, in the district debate, 2 to 1. In the finals, the negative lost to the Geneseo affirmative, 2 to 1. This gave Geneseo the debating champion ship for the first time in 13 years. During the same time, Davenport has won the championship 8 times. Last on the calendar was the extemporaneous speaking. Daven- port’s record in “extemp”, altho it falls below last year’s, is neverthe- less, an enviable one. The “extcmp” teams, composed of Lowell Phelps, George Strathman, Louis Carrol, Frank Hodgdon, Milton Petersen, David Foutz. Woodson Dunning, Ray Fletcher, Rita Ringel, Ethel El- dridge, and Joe Allison defeated Clinton 52 to 103, and Rock Island 108 to 126. Louis Carrol took second place in both Iowa Nine and Iowa State Extemporaneous Contests, and Frank Hodgdon took third place in the Big Eight Contest. This closed another successful forensic year. Much of the credit for Davenport’s success goes to those who failed to make the teams but who, by their efforts, increased competition, and thereby maintained the high standard of Davenport’s forensic activities.

Oh how weary I am today. What a fool I made of myself on that date last night. Am I really doing the right thing in treating Francis that way? It seems to me that I should give her at least ten minutes out of every hour to talk about herself. Let’s see, it was Jake LeBuhn that once told me not to talk of myself more than fifty minutes of every hour. Gosh, I don’t blame Francis for taking that last dance with A1 Witter. Monday 11. Gee but I pulled a raw one last night. Fran, and me went to the Chocolate shop and when the waiter came for the order I said —“Bring me a ham sandwich, waiter—and don’t forget the ham.” And to think that Francis got sore at a little thing like that. Well, I showed her (who’s boss) one time during the Christ- mas holidays. Tuesday 12. Well, we have made up again, Fran, and I. The ther night her father asked me if I was ever go- ing to be graduated. Gosh, that fellow will never listen to reason! PAGE ONE FORTY-SIX Welcome Freshies They will be here Next Fall. Boys, but I’m glad That I am getting out. They are getting Smaller every year. In a few years They will have Nursemaids To teach them how To lop lollypops And how To wash their ears.

They will leave this fall, Helen and Jack, in their new car, a Ford. They will spend about seven days with relatives in Buf- falo and will return via Blue Grass. On their return they will move into their new home on the City Island. Jack h s erected a tent there. They wifi be known their friends as the “Cooing Doves”—to their acquaintances as Mr. and Mrs. Shaefer. It is well to make it known that the Buffalo mentioned is not the one in New York. It’s much closer. They do not expect to buy a larger car for several years. —0— A WISE DUCK Mr. Duck: How did you enjoy that ball last night?’’ Mr. Turtle: “Funk While they were shimmeying last night I had a hard time trying to drop the shell.” PAGE ONE TORTY-EIGHT Rural Advertising A Slim Story The Editor: “Do you know why Edythe is so durn thin?” A friend: “I give up.” The Editor: “Well, ever since she got her radio set she dances the life out of all the boys who call.” “Oh, burn my clothes,” cried poor old Smitty. “I tried to pet a Polish kitty.” For every woman who makes a fool out of man, there is another woman who makes a man out of a fool.” Love Punctuated Love starts with a dash, gra- dually becomes a state of somma, develops into a question mark and finally comes to a full start. —0— Lady: “My! But doesn’t travel- ing bring out all that’s in one?” Experienced traveler: “Yes, especially ocean travel.” —0— Lots of married men sing bass at church and tenor at home. Anyone wanting to buy a fat pig come out and see me. Mike: “Am I the first girl that you ever loved.” Armil: “Yes, and am I the first fellow that ever kissed you?” Mike: “Don’t insult me! Do I look as though I’d never been to a house party.” —0— “How old are you, little girl? “Seven sir; goin’ on ’leven. “How’s that?” “Pa says it’s only natural.” PAGE ONE FORTY-NINE Much Ado About Something (A PLAY IN MANY PARTS) The first scene, and those that fol- low, are laid in a somewhat pleasant inn that is located on the river front of a large western metropolis. There are several men, elderly men, with wornout clothes seated about a large wooden table. They are drinking water and eating long discarded hot dogs. Between bites they take turns sucking a lollypop that one of the gang found on his way to the gather- ing. As a whole they are an interest- ing and notable gathering. They are ex-faculty members of the sterner sex that at one time taught lessons at the Davenport High school. They have gathered for the purpose of talking over old time. (Note.—After much labour on the part of Mr. Ralph Clayton, the noted detective, the names of the nonenne- ties were brought to light. They are given in the melodrama that will follow.) Colletti: “Gentlemen, if I may call you so, we are gathered here today for the purpose of talking over old times. Some of us, it is true, are no longer here in body but in spirit.” Keiber: “Spirits! ah those were the good ole days. But friend Colletti. I have not seen spirits for many years now.” Colletti: “Hush, you will see them presently.” Garlinghouse (Smacking his lips): “I do believe we fellows are going to have a beastly good time.” Underwood: What talk! To think that a great scientist like me should listen to such chatter.” Keller: “My hair! My hair! My poor hair!” Colletti: “Well gentlemen, have you met any of our old pupils who have long since left us to become part of that which we failed to conquer?” Keller: “You talk of Caesar?” Underwood: “Yes. yes, yes. It was only the other day that I met Camp, the noted embalmer of the Mississippi sardines. And to think that at one time I flunked him and called him a blockhead. Gentlemen, this after- noon I go forth to ask of that man, a job.” Keller: “I thought it was Van Camp who was the master em- balmer.” Keiber: “Do the rest of you remem- ber the other day when I was hailed into court for disturbing the peace. The day when my Ford became un- managable. Well, gentlemen, the man who fined me ten dollars and cost was none other than Louis Car- roll, the boy that I tutered. Ah! 'tis little thanks that one gets.” Keller: “Tuter, tuter, do you mean the House of Tudor, dear friend?” Keiber: “Bah!” Garlinghouse: “It is sad, gentlemen, when we cast back our eyes among those shadows of the past. It is sad, indeed. Have you heard of the great Remarke? Ah! yes gentlemen you cer- tainly have for it is the ‘intellectis' who are gathered here today. Gentle- men, Remarke is none other than Richard LeBuhn. And to think that he refused to recognize me the other day. Gentlemen, my artist’s soul has been crushed.” Colletti: “But gentlemen, mine is the saddest. You all know that it is welfare work that has carried me on through all these years. Slowly, ah so slowly I climbed the ladder until I believed that I had reached the utopia. But gentlemen, I misjudged human nature at one time. I erred. Do you remember that fellow A1 Lund. Well, gentlemen, he is none other than the man who has given all to devote his life to saving souls. Gentlemen, at one time I accused that fellow of wanting to be a mil- lionaire.” (Slowly, one by one, they leave the inn. Nothing is left but the empty table and the spirits. The spirits move noiselessly about. A sudden noise is heard. The curtain lowers as Bornholdt, a bent old man, who is proprietor of the place, commences to sprinkle sawdust on the floor.) PAGE ONE FIFTY Little grains of powder, Little drops of paint. Make a girl's freckles Look as though they ain’t. A1 Raschid: “Let’s kiss and make up?” De Ette: Well, I won’t make up.” —0— “Is your father home, little boy?” “Naw, he left when maw caught the maid kissing Santa.” —0— He: “Where did you do the most of your skating when learn- ing?” She: “Sir!” —0— Teacher: “Ues the word ‘Egypt’ in a sentence.” Pupil:: ‘Egypt’ me of my change. —0— Lashes to lashes Dust to dust If she puckers her lips In heaven we’ll trust. —0— “I’ve come to fix that old tub in the kitchen.” “Oh Mama!

It is believed that it was one of their wild shots that hit Warren Postel. An in- vestigation is being held. Jack: “Ruth’s a funny girl.” Jake: “How is that.” Jack: I tried to steal a kiss from her and it landed on her chin.” Jake: Nothing funny about that. Jack: “I know it, but after it happened she said heaven was above.” —0— Colletti: “Why, there is a Freshman in the class that isn’t as dumb as you are.” Camp: Well, wait until he is here as long as I have been.” PAGE ONE FIFTY-ONE THEY TELL ’EM! She crossed her slim ankles and settled back among the cushions of the hammock. He put his arms around her and sighed. She sighed. He sighed again and murmured Darling.... Yes” she queried. “Darling, will you marry me? And when he had gone she cut another notch in the porch swing. Wareham: “Let’s sing ‘Love lifted me’. The janitor: You have had a hard job of it. —0— She lay in his arms and snug- gled her head against his neck— a rush of emotion surged through her—tenderly he carressed her, she closed her eyes in delight. Poor kitty! Did I step on your tail?” —0— Underwood: “What is a poly- hedral angle?

I counted them. —0— There are several kinds of love but they are all expensive. —0— ONALEE: WAS IT YOU THAT KISSED ME LAST NIGHT? LEBO: WHICH DANCE AND AT WHAT TIME? —0— Clayton (trying on his cap and gown for the first time): “This is the first time that I had to pay to look like a fool. —0— Oranges are sun-kissed, Honey is bee-kissed. The ocean is moon-kissed, Flowers are dew-kissed. But most fellows prefer to be girl-kissed. —0— Dearest, may I have a kiss? No dear, father will be back within an hour. page one fifty-two THE BIG IDEA The “big idea” in this business of ours is to think more about what we give to the man who buys our clothes than we think about what he gives us. That may sound like talk; an “awfully good” attitude. Not a bit of it. It’s the greatest business-building idea we know of. To see how much real value can be put into clothes; to give more attention to style; to be sure of high quality in fabrics and tail- oring; to sell at as low a price as possible— these things are the “big idea” Si morv 2nd.

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 Hock 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 offices 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 direc- tion 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 re- presented in every city or borough on the globe, all of whom are connected up by messenger, wire, cable, and radio communication. Local news, sports, comics, “Idle Thoughts”, and features are other departments which make up the broad scope of THE TIMES In the Tri-Cities Nearly'Everybody Reads The Daily Times.
