Centralls hangar continues to buzz With new life ancl new ambitionsl Page ' F aurleni Y Page Fifteen The Groundlings The 'fFlying Urgef' is becoming more and more wide-spread. This year the I want to flyl' candidates numbered two hundred and forty. Unfortunately, some of them had to be sent back after their Hflying permits or the necessary fee of five hundred dollars worth of willingness to work .... but most of the candidates arrived, fully equipped to take up training. - W There were many long and disappointed faces before they were well installed in Centralls hangar. They had the idea, of course, that they were to be immediately given a plane, and that they were to hop off on test flights at once. However, they ingeniously managed to make ground school quite bearable by pretending the sta- tionary practice plane was movable, and appointing trustworthy officers to guide it on its dangerous flights . The freshly painted green plane was safely guided on the first lap by Daniel Newlander, pilot, Jane Daniels, co-pilot, and Lawrence Stoops, navigator. While off duty, on their monthly good-behavior leaveu, the struggling novices amused them- selves by arranging several interesting programs. Dodo Smith and Gilflllan, the distinguished rope throwers of the Freshman Corps, gave demonstrations of their art. Kiwi Connor and Gilbert entertained with popular songs, and Dorothy Jakeway played several piano solos. Louise Godfrey, a popular aviatrix from the Food City, gave a reading, Betty at the Baseball Game , but left the Freshman plane during the first E. X. A. M. flight in February and drifted back to Battle Creek in a parachute. On the evening of December l3th, a flight party was given under the general direction of Assistant Pilot, hlaxine VVard. A delightful program, prepared by co-pilot Daniels, was presented in which passenger VVhite gave a clogging number, and Sweet Sopholillion, a one-act play was staged. The following young aviatrix were characters. Betty Silver, Pauline Chandler, Harriet Plasterer, Pauline Gilbert, Linnie Bailey, and Jane Sidnam. A clever chorus dance, including Bert Corette, Robert Dexter, Law- rence Stoops, Charles Bommersheim, Richard Brown, and Frederick Boudeman was given, the boys dressing in sweaters and butterfly skirts. Santa Claus, who arrived in his airplane, presented everyone with a favor. w The Freshman Corps won the Overdue Book Contest , for having the least number of over-due books at the library, and as a reward, they were allowed to choose a five dollar volume for the school book hangar this year. A great deal of credit for the success of the Freshman's ground school flight goes to Miss Shirley Payne, the Hight commander, whose splendid help aided them through fogs and storms .... chiefly imaginary! Maxine Ward was elected Pilot for the second lap of the Freshman jaunt, and William Good, was voted in as co-pilot! Page Sixteen - warfsirgaa. :ff I 5, - fr fi --,.s..:..- .ff:,- , K.

Pagf Sefvenleen ,p Page Eighteen Page Nineieen i The Fledglings Soon after the opening of Central's hangar in September, and while adjustments were being made, the Groundlings', of the previous year began demonstrating that they had come through their grass cuttingn period most successfully. The newer arrivals, doomed to floor work, or learning how to read the altitude meter, watched in awe as the Fledglings took the stick for the first 'time and hopped off on their Hrst test flight. The run .before taking off was considerably longer than necessary, but the class on the whole found courage to dip the tail in time, and the plane rose gracefully, taking to the ozone without a great deal of excitement. The flight commanders who were watching, agreed they had the possibilities of a full fledged flying squadron, while the members returned from their initial sail about the hangar, doubly confident. The machinery was immediately put in motion to organize. As a result, Gardner Ackley was elected the chief pilot of the green squadron, Dana Kelly, co-pilot, and Ruth Watson was chosen navigator. Commanding General, W. F. Head, appointed Miss Dorothy Scott the flight commander, and the officers, under her thoughtful and experienced knowledge of cross currents and air pockets, guided the plane through the first lap of their training cruise. In time, the majority of the squadron were making beautiful three point landings, while the rest of the members were showing skill in maneuvering their ship. ft t They celebrated their success by staging a Spanish Party in the dog-house at the Central airport, Friday evening, ,November 8. Severalumembers demonstrated their versatility away from the stick. J A burlesque by Sally Sergeant and Beatrice Vincent was preceded by a Spanish song and dance by Eleanor Swain and Vivian VVood. Gardner Ackley, chief pilot, with Eleanor Swain on his right wingu, led the grand march, the music being furnished by a group of classmen versatile in the melodies of rythm! From Bull Fight to favors, the assembly proved Spanish to the last farewell chord of the evening. ' It might have been the weather .... a bit unusual during the early period of flight training, for it was clear, cloudless, and completely lacing in cross currents. The fact remains, the Fledglings were sailing along without a sign of any trouble. Though none of the squadron were disobeying the laws they had learned in the ground school, nothing of real incident was happening to provethey were still green at the stick. In time, however, it happened! During a maneuver cruise, in which the entire squadron participated, they ran out of intellectual gas, and a serious catastrophe seemed imminent. It was averted only by the skill of chief-pilot, Gardner Ackley. He ordered every plane to the ground, signaling all pilots to do their best at a pan-cakef' landing. Though no one was seriously hurt, to prevent a panic, a more experienced flyer from the Senior Squadron was called in, and a corps of the Fledgling ilzgitail presented the group with a facinating bit of nerve relief entitled, K'Thank You, octor . This exciting experience did much to settle the group. A fine spirit of friend-P liness and mutual confidence has developed in the squadron which is certain to stand them in good stead throughout the remaining course of their training.

P Then, too, besides the regular course of-instruction, the various members were eenjoying a great deal more pleasure flying .... beginning to prove themselves .... .make use of what they had learned during that trying period in the ground school, and as fledglings. They approached their task with an at home feeling. When things went wrong they knew what to do, or were resourceful enough to figure it -out for themselves, rather than take their problem to some commanding officer. in charge. Maneuvering in the air took on grace .... and though each pilot felt the necessity of a parachute, and kept it carefully adjusted and ready for use .... the 'entire squadron went through its year of advanced training without a single mishap! During the initial period, while the students were being permitted to shoulder the responsibilities of navigation .... guide themselves in their flight and be allowed 'to take an occasional jaunt into the ozone without too many previous warnings con- -cerning what they might expect, Miss Genevieve Buck was appointed by the Chief of Staff at Central's General Headquarters 'to act as their commanding officer. During .all the Junior Corps Joy flights, Miss Buck proved an able commander. The chief pilot, during the first lap of the Junior squadron's flight was Harold Kriekard. Jack Carreras was the co-pilot, and lllargaret Bersley acted as the corps' navigator. , On Friday evening, November 22nd, the Junior pilots deserted their planes for Ma time, and flew a party in honor of Centralls varsity football team! The grand march was led by Harold Kriekard and Margaret Bersley, followed by Herman Everhardus and June Keiser. Johnson's orchestra furnished the music, and the decor- .ations were carried out in Maroon and White . Cider and doughnuts were served for refreshments, favors for the evening were balloons and pompoms. The event of the evening occurred when the football members, blindfolded, and seated opposite Peach other, endeavored to remove'the shucks from peanuts and feed them to their -opposing partner. At the heighth of the season, a few pilots went into a tail spin, and before they -came completely out of it, a musical comedy had been concocted, rehearsed, and enacted iby the Et Cetera Club. The principals at the controls of this event were ,lane Miller, Elouise Feldbaush, Carola Gibson, and Gertrude Norcross. This was a private enter- tainment, presented to the Junior squadron at the end of their first endurance flight. William Pifer, 'one of the heavier pilots of the Junior corps, masqueraded as St. -Nick during Christmas time, and presented each member of the squadron with a gift. The members who were learning the gutteral grunts of German under the -careful tutelage of Captains Bouck and Hochstein, sang Christmas carols in German. In February, the right wing of the squadron was severed from the ranks, going on to join the Senior squadron. The left wing, remaining, was not weakened how- Hever, for a number of the Fledglings were promoted to fill the ranks. The controls were shifted into new hands early in the second semester. The former co-pilot, Jack 'Carreras became pilotg Wilford Morgan took his place as co-pilot, and Dale Lines Was chosen for navigator during the last lap of the Juniorllight. -Page Tlwrnty-eight V i W W Page Tfwzfnty-nine Page Thirty Pagf Thirty-one Page Thirty-t-wo Page Thirty-three 4 Page Thirty-four DW Sehior Officers Page Thirty-six HERlX'IAN EVERHARDUS, President MAURINE NIESSINK, Vice-president DAVID MORRIS, Secretary STEVE SELMECY, Treasurer ABBOTT, GLADYS- Everyone can read the language of a smzle.

These endurance squadrons-in their long and hazardous Hights-provoke from time to time sidelong glances, nodding heads and whispered disapprovals of the vagaries of this younger generation, which takes great pleasure in nosing its engines into newer, broader, and more varied regions. At times, however, the colonists of these skysweepers overwhelm the continuous buzzing by a grrr-rah!-a Fellow Citizens -a voice of some skylark-a Speak the speech 'I pray you -a cry for news-a yell for pictures-a scream for a basket- a roar for a touchdown. These massivejbuzzards are filled with travelers who will, in a few years, jump to the ground and become lookers-on, as in all fields there are those who hate the feel of the earthy trail when this road comes to an end. But this ever-continuous epic is forever giving birth to some Lone Eagle, some Hermes, Some Mercury who will at the close of this journey, continue to seek the eternally sought-for Utopia. But while the race is on-when the great leaders are neck to neck-when the bodies become weak and worn-and the mind dazed and tense-then! Oh! Then it is youth! Youth soars to the skies! Youth climbs through the clouds! Youth dives and swims and races and rushes-but now and again a meteor will cross the sky. In this ethereal hemisphere are many shooting stars who lead the race. Probably those who sail foremost are the followers of Hercules. Among these-Captain Herman Everhardus, Steve lwusselman, Louis Kuilema, Ralph De Pue and Gaylord Dowd, under the skillful maneuvering of Coach Gene Thomas managed to down the Cricket flying corps for the first time in several years. Hooping heavenly bodies proved a great sport to many-while everyone took part in the cheering end of it. Not content to win the regionals the basketball team went to Detroit and there succeeded in finding the hoop enough to get through the semi-finals. But the last game showed the tournament to be no fairy tale-the tossers came home with a lose to Detroit Northern 16-14. At the meet Nick Vander Roest, John Bosma, Al Tooker, Steve Selmecy and Steve Musselman represented the Upperclassmen. Nevertheless there are many believers still in nature's perambulating methods. The nucleus of this group is Louis Loomis, captain: Lawrence Kipp, Ralph De Pue, Kenneth Beck, George Garrison, and Herman Everhardus. The cross-country non-stop attracted many-Louis Loomis and Lawrence Kipp being the most outstanding. However advantageous-these aerial beings claim other qualifications than just physical attributes. Occasionally, the physical elements manage to come into action- and from thence into power. In the dramatic field many come in about neck and neck. Some of the players are Jean Benedict, Helene Hoekstra, Betty Tyler, Ed. Rogers, Maurice Cross, Louis Kuilema, John Johnson and Henry Kennedy. A Hear Ye, Hear Ye, along with mighty strokes of the gavel upon the shock- absorbing table tops, ocasionally rings through the air. Dave blorris, the all-round man, went so far as to capture the district state title. Russell Worden, Steve Selmecy, Page Sixty-:ix Russell Carlton, and Bernard Willage have proved the backbone of argumentation in the flight. L The Delphian, after much work and many hardships sailed into the open sky, with the story of this record-making Hight, with Donna Swift, Janice Potter, Gladys Watson and Dave Morris at the sticks. The News Staff was piloted successfully through the storms by Leonard Gernant. His mechanics were Jane Loomis, Eleanor Byarlay, June Winslow, Sarah Jane Wat- son, Lenore Polderman, Dorothy Gilman, Paxton Stratton, Elizabeth Hathaway, Dana Brandenberg, Winifred Schrier, Gysbert Ruster, Gertrude Van Zee, Franklin Schrier, Gordon Dilno, Louis Loomis, and Genevieve Kern. Many skylarks, tom-tom beaters, and tooters made their homes with this squadron. In the last laps Louis Loomis, and Cyril Long turned out of the geometrical course and joined the musicians of other flying corps at Atlantic City and from thence on through the east. Maurice Weed tooted himself to fame with a trumpet by being allowed to go to Ann Arbor. The tri-colored questioning group along with the various lieutenants make a surprise attack on these hopefuls each semester. This year thirty-six pupils contributed their names to this Hall of Fame. This award is known as the Honor Society. The direction and guidance of the courses taken by this great squad is put in the hands of our lieutenants-Steve Selmecy and Russell Worden the first lap and Dave Morris and Al Tooker second semester. As a sort of honor and an approval. of their ability and former contributions to the group, four officers are chosen by the graduating group to act as their pilots. Herman Everhardus was given the job of major, while Maurine Neissink, Dave Morris and Steve Selmecy did their part in helping him as vice-president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively. Although this embryo of future civilizations never seems to usher in any finale to the seeking of the Hwhyl' of it all, still there always remains the glorious Eldorado- 'the beacon light which guides these wanderers through all their plights and adventures. To the affairs and problems of this education-bound fleet some are nonchalant 7 -some Bolshevistic. Fate and the law-producing weather-man play their part in the success of the corps. Though black storms rage, the lightning blazes, and hail and sleet cut deep into the bones of their tired bodies-the company comes through at the end with the sun beaming down upon them and the clouds and mists disappearing in the background. But the droning continues as it will ever continue. A scattered few fall at times -some come down in parachutes-some go into still higher realms. Still no impression :is made on the great army of planes-it continues its droning. Page Sixty-:wen Class Prophecy H'lo! . . . May I speak to Betty Tyler, please ? inquired Sara Jane Watson, speaking from her L. Bixby Blimp. Sara Jane is proof-reader on the Potsdam Herald, edited by Leonard Gernant. Why, Jane! Don't you know me any more ? Gracious, is that you, Betty ?l' Jane apologized. This stupid television doesn't register authentically. I didn't recognize you. Goodness, I see you're having a party this afternoon. I wanted you to go to the Rocket Races in Russia with me . . . Yes. of course! Yes, its one of those things the Ed. Rogers Rocket Corporation is spon- soring. Y Oh, I'd love to, gurgled Betty, But listen, Sara Jane, how did you know I lived here?,' Why, I couldn't help seeing your smiling physiognomy gracing all the E. Hayes billboards. I see your advertising Ryall's Riteway Eyelash Roller. Oh, did you'know that was me ? inquired Betty. Yes, I simply love it.

I haven't seen you since your Wedding. How are Coral and Billy, Jr.?,' They're fine, thanks 3-but whatys the hurry . . . Goin' to the Rocket Races, or somethinl? Page Sixty-right Sure am . . . How'd ja guess it! - Well, take it easy. The whole gang's goin' to bei there ! informed Copper Fox. Y'know, Paul Barthold, Leroy Kirshman, Richmond Cooper and Gaylord Dowd are entrants. . Well Fm going to pick up Louise Kimball Todd and take her in my party, said Jane . . . Even the President of the United States, Louis Loomis, and his Secretary of Aviation, Musselnlan, are going to be there. In fact, they're the judges! VVell, so long, Jane, I'11 see you at Airwowsky-Hangaroutsky this afternoon. I'm meeting Dave at the Morris Chair factory in two minutes. !'By the Way, Copper, where's Tom Bennet and Janice Potter-Bennetls abode ? 'just keep goin' right ahead. They live on cloud l58995y, Beimer Blvd. And if you want to look up any more of the old gang, try the Bardeen Bank Building. You can park your buggy over there by the H. Kennedy Koff Kure sign. Thanks, loads! Goodbye ! Sara Jane did a right hand bank, and tore in the direction of the Bardeen Bank Building. She could see it a hundred miles distant, but by stepping on it, it was only a ten minute run. Now that Fm here, may as well look in the world directoryf, thought Jane, and check off a few familiar names i. . . A. A. Acem. Allen! Paul Allen, Why, 'I remember Paul. Gee, he was good looking! I can see him now . . . sleeping in study hall! What's it say here? President of the Chorus Girl's Union. Alice Alexander, Representative of C. Long's Limb and Thigh Corporation.

Mosher's Modes, and Erwin Clark, speediest scratcher of the Fraternal Order of Fleas. At this moment Jane looked up astonished. . For goodness sake, heres Ralph De Pue, chief coach at Mullenls University. Above his head she could see a sign reading, Virginia Elliott and Lenore Polderman's Pepper Tester, handled exclusively at john Finley's Jewelry Store. HI always thought he'd turn out to be a jewelerf' remarked Jane. And here,s Carol Frederick, Wing Scrubber for the Ackley Autogiro Association, and Dorothy Gross, of the Gross and Gilman Undertaking Parlors. David Howard, Chief debtor for Hoppe and Haas Glider Company, and Dena Kwekkeboom, manufacturer of the famous Kwekkeboom Krusty Krackersf' Pardon me, madamf' said a young man, touching Jane on the shoulder, But you've dropped your airo-ticker. 'fOh, thank you! . . . Why, if it isn,t Paul Schrier . . . And isnyt that Forest VanderMeer with you? . . . What are you doing here ? Oh, We sell Bachmeyer Bonds . . .

CContinued on Page 1445 Page Sixty-nine Senior Class Will Be it known, if you may be concerned, that we, the Central Seniors of 1930, duly stethescoped, purged of ignorance, and masters of ground school information, do pronounce this document our last will and testament before hopping off on a non- stop flight, piloting our destiny in the cold, cruel ozone of this world! Unable to burden ourselves with excess baggage, our valued and envied possessions will be collected in Central's hangar, and distributed as we have bequeathed them, in the following manner. Small items are to receive immediate consideration! The dust from our feet will be left in Central's runways, to be carefully gathered and preserved by the janitors! Gur locker keys to anyone who can find them, and our chapel seats to anyone Who can sleep in them. In the f'Lost and Found department we leave small articles of value to owners only. It is 'our wish they be held seven years . . A . at the end of which time, they are to be distributed at a District Teachers' Convention. Our marks, recorded in black and white, will, from time to time, be published in the News to serve as a source of inspiration to enterprising sophomores and muling freshmen. The juniors are bequeathed the responsibility of guarding the totem pole in our domain . . . and to the football teams of Central's future, we leave the task of holding same in our hangar!

Y -' 9 Student Council Before Central High closed its doors for the summer vacation last June, the aerialists of the institution were given the opportunity of choosing, by popular vote, the chief pilot of the school's governing body . . . The Student Council! It was- argued that the candidates for the position would introduce a platform of improve- ments, thereby making the pilots more efficient in behalf of the flyers. This year . . . the student councils of both semesters have not only had such an opportunity, but have proven the worth of such a venture. X For the first semester, on a platform of more social activity,', Steve Selmecy was elected the chief pilot of this governing corps. Under the clever athlete's skillful control, organizations were started, and the social activities became numerous. The chief accomplishment of the executive committee during the fall term was the adoption of a new constitution which is believed to be capable of taking the place of the annual constitution adopted heretofore. The second semester David Morris was elected on a latform of material im- Y, y p provements. An organ, an athletic field, and a new gymnasium were pointed out as the hangar's greatest necessities, and these Dave promised to bring to the attention of the authorities at general headquarters. During the past semester the drinking fountains have been repaired to give cold, running water . . . more pencil sharpeners have been installed, and it has been de- cided with the opening of the school next fall, papers prepared in the Production office are to have holes punched in the correct places. In addition, the executive pilots have corrected other minor annoyances. A list of the hangar regulations has been printed, the city has agreed to mark the parking spaces around the hangar, and the student union part of the year was staged. General Head and Captain Clementz acted as faculty technicians of the govern- ing body. The first semester, Russell YVorden was the assistant pilot, and Betty Tyler was the secretary. During the winter race for chief pilot, three candidates were in the field. Louis Loomis gave way to Alburt Tooker who acted as assistant during the second semester. These officers proved themselves unusually capable in the manipulation of government in and near the Central airport. Auditorium programs were presented every Friday., carried out by the Student Council's program committee. This governing body was first started in September, 1919, under the direction. of Principal Charles A. Fisher, who later became the assistant director of Extension at the University of Michigan. At that time, such governing bodies were practically unknown, so that Central was one of the leaders to take the air in such a project. The organization has moved rapidly forward since its origin, and the purpose of its- members to give Hjudicious consideration to all matters concerning the student body is more in evidence with each succeeding Council. The new policy of electing the chief pilot or president and hisassistant by popular election was introduced a year and a half ago after it was debated from the stage of the auditorium in open forum and later adopted by the student body by a favorable majority. Before this time, the body has elected its own officers. Now, the only persons elected by the controlling pilots are the secretary and faculty advisor.

These leaves ultimately form themselves into pages of history, while on a much smaller scale, the records made in school play their part in influencing the accomplishments to bemade in future life. In High school the 'fNews'! and Delphian act as the absorbing factors in these Qparticipations. However the HNews , being weekly, affords a great amount of detail 'to all the numerous and smaller activities. The first semester of last year Leonard Gernant very successfully piloted the journalistic squad through the many obtruding handicaps which always present them- -selves to newspaper workers. Leonardis work is especially noteworthy in that, due to illness, the advisor, Miss Beatrice Koepfgen, was absent. He had as his helpers, Genevieve Kern, Jane Loomis, Elizabeth Hathaway, 'Gordon Dilno, Winifred Schrier, Eleanor Byarlay, Sarah Jane Watson, Dave Morris, 'Dana Brandenburg and Gertrude Van Zee. The second semester the staff was especially favored by having Mr. Howard Chenery take Miss Koepfgexfs place. Genevieve Kern took over the controls. She Was assisted by Jane Loomis, associate editor, Eleanor Byarlay, June Winslow, Dana Brandenburg, Margaret Bersley, Carola Gibson, Leah Beach, Winifred Schrier, Franklin Schirer, Marion Cameron, Gertrude Van Zee, Gysbert Ruster and Esther Vanderbrook. Maxine Brown, Lucille Lotz, and Kathleen Pigott acted as typists both semesters. Although the columns must be filled it is quite necessary for some money to 'back it. The first part of the year Lenore Polderman proved a very capable business manager. Dorothy Gilman was the accountant. Second-semester Dorothy Gilman was business manager while Paxton Stratton acted as sales manager.

QUILL AND SCROLL Feathers and rollsl Quills and Scrolls! Of course, in reality these instruments become short scrubby pencils .... eraserless and showing quite obviously the teeth marks made by the scribes in their great hunger on account of such late hours .... and sheets of paper .... formerly white' .... but now mutilated and bedeclied with pictures of some Workmate or pedagogue who is the cause of this present result. To enter this honorary society for high school journalists, a student must take journalism, become a member of either the News or Delphian staff, pass the recom- mendation of the director of publications, maintain a B average in scholastic work, and pass the board of the National Quill and Scroll Association. In IVIay of 1929, along with several June graduates, Lenore Polderman, Betty Johnson, Elizabeth Veley, Tom Bennet, Elizabeth Hathaway and Genevieve Kern were initiated. In the month of April 1930, Leonard Gernant, Gordon Dilno, Sarah Jane Wat- son, Winifred Schrier, Gertrude Van Zee, Dana Brandenberg, Eleanor Byarly, Franklin Schrier, Margaret Bersley, June Winslow, Dorothy Gilman, Jane Loomis, Louis Loomis, Janice Potter, David lVIorris, and Donna Swift went through the or- deal of saying I am , and I will to the various questions one must agree to enter- ing this national society.

HONOR SOCIETY Another year has passed into eternity but with its passing a number of Central's young aviators have been awarded their wings and have become members of Cen- tral High Schoo'l's chapter of the National Honor Society. This is the highest honor that the instructors in this Flying school of learning can bestow on any student pilot. Four things are taken into consideration by the faculty in selecting a student for this honor: scholarship, leadership, character, and service. It is the ambition of every true student to some day receive his wings , Miss Florence Winsloxv is the faculty advisor of the society and during the past year Louis Loomis acted as chief pilot with Jane Loomis as his assistant. Elizabeth Veley was chosen as the Secretary and Alburt Tooker served as Treasurer. The hrst semester Duncan Ackley, Jean Benedict, Robert Bock, Dana Branden- burg, Eleanor Byarlay, Dorotha Carter, Maurice Cross, Jane Loomis, Louis Loomis, David Morris, Illif Newcomer, Donna Swift, Alburt Tooker, Sarah Jane Watson, June Wiiislow, Esther Wise, and Francis Woodhanis were elected to this body while Betty Bardeen, Margaret Bersley, Eunice Bogue, Carola Gibson, Dorothy Gilman, Lucille Lotz, Jeanne 1l'IacKenzie, Carson Neifert, Ann Louise Niessink, Gertrude Norcross, Milton Qkun, Janice Potter, Franklin Schrier, Steve Selmecy, Esther Vanderbrook, and Gladys Watsoii were chosen by the faculty the second semester.

BIBLIO FAGS Through the feeling that such an organization would develop and grow into one of the most useful mediums between the student body and Central's library, the Biblio Fags were organized and launched on its first flight in October of 1929. Under the advisorship of Nfiss Bessie Reed, this library committee was selected :consisting of a representative from each homeroom. These representatives were ap- pointed by their respective advisors. Donna Swift was elected as chairman of the group and Dana Brandenburg was 'chosen secretary . . . their term of office to last throughout the year. The chief function of this committee is to remind students of overdue books, and to inform them of fines which are to be paid for their negligence. The 'fFags,' also act as a mediator between the library and the students, bring- ing requests and problems of the students to Miss Reed. During the year, two contests have been staged with unusual interest and re- sults. The purpose of both was to promote the prompt return of books to the library. At the end of each semester the class which had the least number of overdue books to its credit was given the privilege of choosing, for the high school library, -some book or books, to the amount of five dollars. The first semester contest was won by the freshman class. Book of Pirates by Howard Pyle, and Falcons of France by Nordhuff were selected.

' In concluding a successful season for Kazools major athletics, the committee staged a May Day dance for Centralls students and her alumni. Officers during the first semester were VVanda Greene, presidentg Esther Wise, secretary, while David liiorris counted and doled out the money.

PRE-VOCATIONAL CLUB Eighteen years ago, the Pre-Vocational School made its first appearance. The year of its birth it was christened the Continuation School, and its purpose at that time was to give boys who needed to work an opportunity to work in shops half of the day and attend school the remaining half. After its work became known, and it seemed firmly established in the community, its name was changed to the Pre-Vocational School . . . a title it has retained to this day. During the early periods of its development there were times when its navigators felt it might go into a tail spin and end in destruction. Its growth was exceedingly slow, but of late years, it has settled into a steady, healthy institution, keeping pace with the times, and establishing records particularly to itself and the purpose for which it exists. To the surprise of many who pay it a visit, they soon learn that it is practically a self-governing body! The Boys' Vocational Club, which includes every student in the school makes this possible. Having for its objective, The teaching of good manners, good morals, good habits and good sportsmanship, it aims to incorporate its motto in all its work and various activities.

PRE-VOCATIONAL CLUB CContinuedJ The club also sponsors any idea which will be of betterment, or future useful- ness to the pre-vocational boys. It devotes considerable time to the teachings and Parliamentary practice . . . aims to improve the spoken English of its members, and is a hundred per cent strong in promoting all forms of school activity. The executive committee consists of the following students: President, George Kramer, vice-president, VVilliam De Vriesg secretary, Leonard Van Dam, treasurer, Henry Van Dylceng Chairman of the Entertainment Committee, Harold Hunterg Chairman of Personal Service Committee, James Damsmag Librarian, Harm D: Vries. No diplomas were issued to the graduates of this school until 1917. Accomplishments of various members of the graduated classes can be observed with pride, however. lllany have finished high school, some have completed college. Graduates from its ranks may be found holding such important positions as: County road engineer, teacher superintendent of a sign works, architectural draftsman, man- .ager of a battery shop, foreman in a factory, salesmen, machine draftsmen, ma- chinists and so on. It can also be said that not one of the graduates from the Pre- Vocational School is not holding some responsible position, but in addition they are the respected citizens of the communities in which they live! . 1 I Page Nzneiy-five i l i l Se va, ff A we - ' -- ., , ' 4' Top Row: C.

Eugene Thomas and the boys, director of the Y. BI. C. A., lNIr. Bruce Swain, has, during the past year, soared to heights which up to this time have never been attained. Paul Barthold acted as a most capable pilot for the first semester. He was as- sisted by Gaylord Dowd, vice-president, LeRoy Kirshman, secretary, and VVilliam Pifer, treasurer. During this semester the club brought Harry E. Dodge to Central as speaker for a chapel period. They also decided to act as big brother to a few of the Athletic organizations, giving one hundred dollars to football, sixty dollars to track, and fifty dollars to the swimming team. This money had been made at the annual Hi-Y carnival. For the second semester, Vernon Bero relieved hir. Barthold at the stick and he also succeeded in piloting the organization through a record-breaking season. Louis Loomis relieved Gaylord Dowd as assistant pilot and Richard Leins acted as secre- tary with Carson Neifert as treasurer. The greatest feat credited to this group is the supervising of the Hi-Y carnival, which has become an annual affair in Central. The club also staged a minstrel show during an auditorium period, and, last but not least, a basketball team composed of members of this group took off in their fighting plane and totally demolished a similar ship representing the Hi-Y club of Central's ancient rival, Battle Creek.

This group of about seventy-five junior and senior girls stand for friendship among girls. Health in mind, body, and spirit is a standard which Girl Reserves have set for themselves. The triangle enclosed in a circle, representing the world in which a girl lives, is the symbol of this standard. At all times a member of the Girl Reserves tries To face life squarely and to find and give the best. Any junior or senior girl may join the Central Y. A recognition service for new members and a ring ceremonial is held every spring. During the past year sev- eral girls have become Wearers of the Ring. The social activities enjoyed by the club included a treasure hunt, a Central Y-Hi-Y party, several teas, a Dad and Daughter dinner, and several Monday after- noon social hours. ' On Sunday, May 4, the Girl Reserves, with Dorotha Carter as general chairman put on the annual May Morning Breakfast. Miss Lazelle Alway of the Y. W. C. A., and Miss Anne Bigelow of the faculty have guided the Central Y.. The officers of the organization with the committee chairmen compose what is known as the cabinet of the club. The cabinet members for the first semester were: President, Betty Johnson, vice-president, Frances De Kon- ingg secretary, Jean Benedict, treasurer, Amy Van Peenan, committee chairman, Elizabeth Veley, Esther Wise, Jane Loomis, Dorothy Gilman, Wilma Crooks, and June Winslow. The cabinet members for the second semester were: President, Frances De Kon- ing: vice-president, Jane Loomisg secretary, Eleanor Byarlayg treasurer, Virginia lVIcCookg committee chairman, Esther Wise, Betty Buechner, Betty Burdett, Pauline Derhammer, Barbara Maple, and Avesta lilac Hyames.

SILVER TRIANGLE Gracious I will be in manner, Impartial in my judgment too: Ready to serve, loyal to friends- Each Girl Reserve this code defendsf, And so the members of the Silver Triangle Flying Corps have tried to live up to their code this year, and have not had such a dull time doing it. Last September the silver and blue plane hopped off on a fight of business meet- ings and social gatherings which continued throughout the entire cruise. .About thirty aviatrixes answered the first roll call and many more enlisted at the various stops along the way. At these control points the passengers of the Silver Triangle plane stopped off for pot-luck suppers, a book party, and a birthday party held to raise money to buy parachutes. These were for Elinor Swain and Jane Morris, avitrixes who left the plane in January and Hoated down to the mid-winter conference' at Detroit. Last June, 1929, Ruth Arink, pilot elect, and Barbara Marple were sent as representatives of the Silver Triangle to the summer conference at Camp Gray, Sauga- tuck. Other officers on the plane for the first lap of the cruise were Jane Morris, co-pilotg Elinor Swain, navigator, and Elizabeth Krum, mechanic. ' The Silver Triangle flight was directed by Commanders Miss Mildred Mc- Conkey and Miss Lazella Alway of the Y. VV. C. A. Port.

Every second week the club holds its business meeting, listening to entertaining programs furnished to them by its members. At the end of the first semester, a farewell party was staged for its graduating members. Dinner was served at the Asia Inn, The Virginiani' served as entertain- ment. The high point of their social activity came when the club staged their Bohemian -dance in the gymnasium. Decorations were in keeping with the name, thoroughly artistic, expressive of the organization. It was a general student party, Mitchell's 'syncopaters furnished the music. During the first semester, Cormac Farrell was president, Clarice Parrish, vice- president, Mildred Titus, secretary, Frank Taylor, Treasurer, Johnny Bishop, sergeant-at-arms. Miss Post is the faculty advisor. For the closing semester of the year, the presiding officers were LeRoy Kirsh- man, president, Clarice Parrish, vice-president, Gunvor Kritzberg, secretary, Kenneth Beck, treasurer, and John Dolin, sergeant-at-arms. The club membership is open to all art students in Central. Page Ninety-nine Top Row: Ann Louise Niessink, Carola Gibson, Esther Vander Brook, Evelyn Grandbois, Florence Haas, Elouise Feldbaush.

Et Cetera, as the name implies, had its fingers in most anything of interest about the schoolg it even had a booth at the annual carnival. Miss Genevieve Buck acted as faculty advisor for the group! Elouise Feld- baush was the president for the first semester, Florence Cvrifien was the secretary, and Ollie Pick, the treasurer.

And what a tailspinny Hop the initiates of the German Club took! Parachutes weren't provided and so the greenhorns landed flatter than pancakes. Chief pilot Marion Lane and aviatrix Niessink led the new members in rnonoplanes and piloted them around dangerous corners at one of the private hangars at Lindbergh airport. The Deutsche Verein went to Alice Alexander's house for its Christmas party. Since the members didn't have a chance to fly in the air, they glided on their feet and when the evening was over the Vereiners,' had fallen enough times to break any aeroplane records! At one of the semi-monthly meetings Miss Winslow, having control of the stick, soared skyward piloting the club to the hangars at Oberammergau, Germany. She took the members on a sightseeing tour around the theater in which the Passion Play is given. Having skillfully pointed out the life of the Germans she guided the ship back to Central. The famous German Club lVIystery Shipi' was used for the spring initiation at the home of Orville Smith. Although the ship is in reality a mechanical goat it can throw its passenger far enough to convince him he is dropping from the Graf Zeppelin. The chief pilot, assistant pilot, mechanic and navigator for the fall term were Marion Lane, Illif Newcomer, Paula Shaffer, and lilaurine Niessink, respectively. In the spring they gave their helmets to Bill Pifer, Marie Dietrich, Gertrude Norcross and Marion Slocum. Page One Hundred One WWW has WEP W... ,,,. T, ,,,, I ,,,,,, 5T,TT,..,TVW .,...... -.

OUTDOOR CLUB Last September after its renovation at the Central Engineering Corporation the Outdoor Club, a first rate monoplane, taxied out of its hangar to become one of the active ships at Central's Airport. At a joint air circus with the UG. A. A. plane this organization proceeded to conduct a 'membership drive which listed about twenty- five enthusiasts. During the l929 football campaign the Outdoor Club presented the band with a white silk banner bearing maroon letters for Central. The Battle Creek pep dance, which more than two hundred Central students and alumni attended, was sponsored by this Club. The Outdoor Club was organized for the purpose of encouraging the girls in outdoor activities. To this aim the club has added such indoor work as bowling and indoor tennis, archery, and golf. Any girl who is unable to take part in more strenuous sports 'is thus aided in becoming a member of the G. A. A. as she is able to earn points in these activities. The first semester officers were Eileen Sniith, president, Bedonna Besbres, vice- presidentg Jeannette Ray, secretary-treasurer. Eileen Smith was re-elected president in the second semester polls with Ruth VVillage, lliary iNIcCune, and Carrie Hayman as under officers. Page One Hundred Tfwo Top Row: G. Tuzee, A. Niessink, P.

During the first semester, VVinifred Schrier served as the president, Wilma Myers, vice-president, Leah Beach, secretary, and Marie Dietrich, treasurer. For the spring, another big play-day program was planned, and a house party for all members of the G. A. A. was held late in May, at which time about twenty girls were present. Officers to finish out the year were Rachael Anthony, presidentg Leah Beach, vice-president, Lucille Bresson, secretary, and Marie Dietrich, treasurer.

Ritter ORCHESTRA Stalled engines,broken propellers, and cracked wings hold no terror for these young note gliders. These air-minded musicians soar through the heavens with Bee- thoven, Tschaikowski, Mozart, or what have you? Several training flights have been made to the Junior high schools of the city' and demonstrations have been given throughout the year. A high spot this past year was the spring concert April 18, proving that this symphony has a personality of its own. Gliders Raymond Fuller and Ramon Schoonmaker, rewarded for their good get-away on scales and their unsurpased landings on notes were given a flying trip tow the National High School Orchestra camp at lnterlochen last summer. These airmen along with Louis Loomis and Cyril Long barnstormed their way' to Atlantic City for the National High School Orchestra concert in the spring. Chief Engineer, lylaurice VVeecl, after refueling for four semesters in Central's. orchestra hopped off for Chicago to attend the second section of the National High' School Orchestra in March. YVirh each glider detailed to a station and duty, metallic and unharmonious. noises have been carefully eliminated and under an able steersman, this organization has escaped dangerous air currents and ascended with nose upward until now there is a complete symphonious arrangement.

BOYS' GLEE CLUB All together, my hearties, let's kill that last high notef' Such words as these are heard by the unwary one who unwittingly strolls down by 118 on a Tuesday or Thursday night during the eighth hour. It is the Boys' Cvlee Club, one of the most active all-boys' clubs in Central. .Under the capable leadership of Miss Esther Nelson these boys have participated in several programs throughout the year. Among these were the UNI. E. A. chorus, auditorium programs both at Central and other schools and a concert on April 18, which included all sections of the lllusic Department. William Fox headed the organization the first semester. He was assisted by LeRoy Kirshman, vice-president, and lllaurice Schippers, Secretary-treasurer. During the second semester, Raymond Kooi, a member of the National High School Chorus, was elected as president of the Hgleestersf' while George Garrison and LeRoy Kirshman acted in the capacity of vice-president and secretary-treasurer, re- spectively. Although this is an exclusively boys' organization, Betty Haggerson broke down the portals and restrictions of the club, and acted as accompanist both semesters.

It consisted of Harold ISmith, violin, David Pratt, cello, and Gladys Watson, piano. tThis trio has made several appearances, playing at various organizations through- out the city. Their first appearance was at the Civic theatre, when they furnished the music for the production of Machiiial. Later in the season they played for this or- ganization again. Programs have been given during auditorium periods at Central and Lincoln schools, at a Parent Teachers' Association meeting at Vine Street school, at a formal dinner of the White Shriners of Jerusalem, at a Ladies' tea at the Congregational -,church and at the Spring concert given on April 18. This popular trio plays classical music exclusively.

TAKE MY ADVICE As the Senior class play of the year, the dramatic department staged Elliott Lesteris comedy, Take My Adivce on Friday evening February 21, to a large, ap- preciative and enthusiastic audience. A play, admirably suited to the amateur, in which Pa Weaver has a weakness for fraudulent stock salesmeng lN'Ia Weaver has a Weakness for numerologyg Buddy Weaver, the young son, has quit school to marry the local vampire who is eight years older than himself, and Ann VVeaver is bitten by the stage bug, comes Professor Clement, and with an optimistic method restores a t0pSy-turvey family headed to cer- tain destruction from chaos to order. A setting, modernistic in design, done in a warm shade of green was furnished by the stage design class under the supervision of Mr. Barnhart, the instructor and director of the play. The performance was unusually brisk in tempo . . . sparkling dialogue trip- ping from the tongues of every member of the cast. The kind of a play a high school cast does well . . . and a performance which caused every member of the large audience to murmur with enthusiasm . . . Well done!

THE CREAKING CHAIR A corps of histrionic flyers descended on the stage of Central auditorium, Friday evening, December 6th, and under the direction of hir. Lyle D. Barnhart, chief instructor in theatrical aeronautics presented Allene Tupper VVilkes and Roland Pertweels farcical mystery play The Creaking Chair. A play which enjoyed an unusually successful run during its professional pre- sentation in New York, recently, the dramatic department were fortunate in obtain- ing so early a release for its production. The stage design class furnished a perfect setting, completely in harmony with the mystery of chills and thrills, filled with a generous portion of good wholesome comedy. For the sinister Egyptian evils resulting from foreign research among the tombs of the Pharaohs provided some thrilling moments which came thick and fast through- out the play. The exciting fate that overtook Lord Carnarvon, leading figure in the excavation of King Tut's tomb, held the audience's interest from curtain to curtain. Excellent acting was contributed by all members of the cast, and the perform- ance, on the Whole, showed careful staging and direction. l Page One Hundred Thirteen ,Mme ....,. r.,, .

THE DEBATE SQUAD The debating squad, under the direction of the new debate coach, Mr. VVells Harrington, started its season in September with eight boys. One hour a day was spent on the question of the Michigari Debating League: l'Resolved, that a judge or a board of judges be substituted for the jury in all trials in municipal and state courts in Michigan. Through a series of practice debates, Russell VVorden, Stanley VVheater, and David Morris were chosen to represent the school in the first state contest with Grand Rapids South High School on November 15. Central won by a two to one decision. Again the places on the team were thrown open to the entire squad but the same debaters were chosen to represent Kalamazoo in the next two important debates which resulted in victory over Niles High School by the vote of a single expert judge and a two to one defeat at the hands of Allegan High School. In the last debate with Grand Rapids Central which Kalamazoo Won two to one, Russell Carlton took Rus- sell VVorden's place. The squad ended the season with eleven points, just one less than were neces- sary to enter the state elimination debate series. Attention, the second semester, was focused on the inter-homeroom debates which were coached by members of the squad and speech students. Other members of the squad aside from those already mentioned were Steve Sel- mecy, Bernard Willage, and Dan Newlander.

ATHLETIC BOARD Above is seen one of those boards of destiny-the Athletic Board. To know the number of meetings they have each trip would not help one to understand the above phrase but when it is remembered that this group could keep the loved UK off the breast of any aviator they desired, that there would be no student union tickets if they did not want them, that the plane would pull out of any 'or all interscholastic athletics if they deemed it advisable, and that a number of other 'things might happen if said things were wise in their sight, their title of a board of destiny is quite ap- propriate. Faculty commissioned officers include General Head, the director of athletics, and the technical advisor of football and basketball, swimming, and track and cross country. Among the few non-coms to hold a cherished position are the chief pilot of the plane, and the captains of the above mentioned sports. The chief interest of the body is in the finances of athletics on board ship. The last season was reported as very successful and the board hopes to have enough money to purchase the needed equipment at the beginning of the season next fall.

VARSITY FOOTBALL Central's gridders faced their 1929 season with high hopes. Under the capable direction of their new coach of last season, Eugene Thomas, the spirit of winning football had settled in the bones of the Maroon and White warriors, and the squad, during its early training seemed to be definite- ly out for blood. Stratton, L. Kuitert. Coach Thomas, knowing that he had the versatile Her- man Everhardus to captain the team as well as do much of the kicking and running in the backfield, began, early in the season to build his team around him. It proved, during the first few games to be a great piece of strategy, for be- hind the strong stone wall developed for the heady Ever- hardus, Kalamazoo Central marched to easy victories early in the season. Then Everhardus was injured! It was a terrible blow, not only to the team, but Coach Thomas, who was com- pelled to revamp the squad in order to meet the crisis. The season shows that it was but half possible. Central, at all times showed great defensive power, but it needed their versatile captain for scoring punch. This undoubtedly ac- counts for the two scoreless games in mid-season. Kalama- zoo prevented their opponents from scoring . . . but in turn, they were unable to score themselves! Page One Hundred Nineteen 1 Page One Hundred Tfwenty Coach Thomas, too, in keeping his injured captain on the bench, was saving him for the final game of the season, for in Everhardus' hands apparently rested the chances of victory over Kalamazoo's stellar foe, Battle Creek. In their initial appearance of the 1929 football season, Central's gridders met Vicksburg, trouncing the small town lads 49-0. ln this encounter, Coach Thomas used two teams interchangeably. The one sided victory over Vicksburg proved little because this Class C outfit had but two grid- ders back from its 1928 aggregation, a group of ball car- riers which claimed the state championship in its class last season. The following week would be a better test. It was not, however, the competition anticipated. Coach Thomas' husky lklaroon and VVhite,s romped over their hosts at Holland by a score of 34-0. lt was very apparent the 1929 edition of Central's pig-skin toters was no inferior squad. Herman Everhardus, the captain, personally turned in four touchdowns, and added three of the points for the day's total of 27 points. Steve 1VIusselman followed Captain Everhardus in the yardage gained for the day, the husky fullback having an average of nearly four yards per try at the end of the game. Vern BCI10, the star from 1VIenomi- nee was a big factor in the pass plays. Pettiford, an end, was especially brilliant. Cn October 5th, the Marooii giants journeyed to hluskegon Heights, and there vaniquished these trojans 13-7. f'Dutch,' Everhardus slipped through the highly touted hluskegon outfit's defense and accounted for the teamis total of 13 points. Gaylord Dowd's playing showed up in great style. On the 12th of October, Benton Harbor handed Cen- tral its initial defeat. Fumbles ruined Central's three chances to score. The break in the game came when Ben- ton Harbor's quarterback made a neat run for seventy yards to Kalamazods goal line for the deciding touchdown. The final score was 7-O. On the following Saturday the able-bodied lads from Kalamazoo came back with the punch, and gave the con- tending state championship team from jackson a severe jolt on the chin by handing the Prison City aggregation a 3-0 trimming. This unexpected upset killed Jackson's hopes for the state Class A title. Kalamazoo played brilliant foot- ball and deserved to win. Captain Everhardus, toe turned the trick from midfield. The games with Lansing Central and Grand Rapids Central resulted in scoreless ties. In addition, both games were unspectacular. The team lacked the scoring punch in these two encounters, being unable to push the ball over the final chalk mark whenever given the opportunity. The following week, however, Central's line showed -great power in stopping St. Joe. Captain Everhardus had been released from the doctor's care, and through the out- .standing work of the forward wall, the lllarooners piled up a score over their opponents, 28-0. Steve lXIusselman's style crowded Eveyis place in the limelight in the game with the Marines. Central seemed destined to close the season a fighting aggregation! All that was predicted came true! To end one of the most successful football seasons in recent years, Central met Battle Creek at the local Teachers, College field, and before the largest crowd ever assembled in the history of football in the city of Kalamazoo, trounced their adversaries 13-7. The battle royal started with a fighting, smashing at- tack of the lylaroon giants led by Captain Everhardus. After thrilling defensive work on the part of the Kalamazoo team, the Cereal City aggregation found themselves pos- sessing the ball, but in the vicinity of their own goal. They -decided to punt out of danger. 'lt was an excellent punf Captain Everhardus caught the ball in midfield and was -OH with a Hash around Battle Creek's left end. Interfer- fence was working beautifully, and the llaroon Captain galloped over the oal line for the initial touchdown of the g game. Dutch's toe booted the ball between the uprights for the extra point, writing new history for Central. For this was the first time since 1923 that Central had scored seven points against their age-old rivals. A fumble made by the Crickets and recovered by Louis Kuilema 'paved the way for the second Rlaroon and VVhite touch- down. Herman Everhardus accounted for it, which proved to be the deciding factor of the game. The food city sent a thrill through the large crowd 'proving they were fighting to the last minute, when their versatile colored threat, Buddy Dozier, took a punt on his Page One Ilundrfd T-wfnty one 15 yard line and ran the remaining 85 yards for a touch- down, eluding his would-be captors in a brilliant exhibition of open field running. The Crickets made their extra point good. With new life the Cereal city lads fought hard and threatened, but the Central line led by Clarence Pettiford, proved impenetrable and the alert backfield took care of the dangerous passes. Central's team ended its season with a grand total of 140 points to their opponents 21. The Maroori and White's lost one game, tied two, and won the other six. During the games which were lost and tied, Captain Herman Ever- hardus, ball toter deluxe was on the casualty list. Those who received letters were: Captain Herman Everhardus, Vern Bero, Steve Musselman, Jack Carreras, George Garrison, Clarence Pettiford, Nick Vander Roest, VVilliam Pifer, Louis Kuilema, Harvey Schau, Ralph De Pue, and Gaylord Dowd. Five of the above men received positions on the all-city eleven. They were: Everhardus, captain and half-backg Dowd, guardg Pettiford, endg Bero, half-back, and De Pue, guard. Everhardus was again chosen this year on the mythical all-state team and was also made honorary captain. 910 SCORES Kalamazoo . . . . . .49 Vicksburg .... . . . . . . 0 Kalamazoo . . . . . .34 Holland ........ . . . . . . 0 Kalamazoo . . . . . .13 lluskegon Heights . . . . . 7 Kalamazoo . . . .. . 0 Benton Harbor . . . . . . . 7 Kalamazoo . . . . . . 3 Jackson ........ . . . . . . 0 Kalamazoo . . . . . .

Many of these second team players will probably fill the vacancies left by the graduating varsity toters on the first team in the 1930 season. They promise to acquit themselves well! On September 21st, the Reserve warriors got sweet revenge for their 1928 de- feat, by trimming the Galesburg eleven 19 to 7. In the opening tilt, Svancara, Sur- villa and Jackson were the outstanding Maroon and White players. The following Saturday, in their first real test, Zuidema's plungers trampled the Holland seconds on their own pasture to the tune of 19 to 0. The backheld, going great guns throughout the tilt, accounted for most of the points. Before the Benton Harbor Varsity footballers had put the lVIaroon Giants out of the state championship race, the fighting reserves steam-rolled the Twin City seconds to the score of 13 to 0. This was the third consecutive win for the locals and the second shutout of the football season. Jackson, star fullback, was out of this game on account of an injury. Had he been playing the score would have been different. Kriekard did much toward bringing victory. On the first day of November, the Kalamazoo Central future varsity stars trekked their way to Galesburg again and ripped down the cow pasture .... emerging on the long end of a 17 to 14 score for the second victory over the jerk- water boys this season. This was a serious defeat for the Burgites as they were all primed for a victory that they might even things a bit. Two days before Armistice the locals decided to celebrate the anniversary of the World War, so mowed down the lakeside St. Joseph lads in great shape and came home with a 19-7 victory. To make the day more complete the varsity pigskin toters completely outplayed their Class B opponents, winning by a big score. This game ended the most successful season the Reserves have had in recent years. They hung up five straight wins and received no defeats. They garnered 87 points while the enemies, total was 28 .... Less then a touch down a game!

The score was 52 to 10. Although Albion was a Class B ball club, Central showed a well directed attack. The following week the Central basketeers extended their victories to two when they downed the Unionites 23 to 14. The boys as yet had no definite lineup and for this reason were unable to run up a larger count. The following game they nosed out the Holland Hingamen 22 to 21. The Wooden Shoers presented a tough quintet and gave Central a big scare before going under. This scare made the boys look up and take notice, and so on the next night they sub- dued the strong Benton Harbor crew 27 to 20. Although the invaders had two all-state footballers on their five, they caused little worry to the Maroon Giants. ' The boys had planned to make it five straight as they had done the year before, but their plans were demolished when the versatile Jackson Eve beat the locals 14 to ll. The Celery City boys looked weak on their shots at the Prison Town. Tooker and Vander Roest looked best for the losers. The next night, still weak from their pre- vious tilt, the Kazoo sphere tossers downed the fast Lansing Reds 19 to 15 in one of the. fastest battles of the year. Vander Roest pulled the game out of the fire. ' The following week the aggregation traveled to Battle Creek to take on the revenge-seeking Bear- cats. The Celery Raisers trounced the Corn Flakers and snowed them under 32 to 13. In one of the biggest upsets of the season the St. Joe maple floor boys came from behind and nosed out the Cen- tralites 20 to 18 in an extra period. The basketball team had reached their 'fstalen period and were forced to lose to Holland 16 to 7. The Dutchmen had improved considerably while Central had weakened. Page One Hundred Tfwenty-fi-ve The next night the locals were forced to lose their third straight game when the Lan- sing Eastern men nosed out the Maroon Giants at the Capital City. Presenting a new lineup with Morgan and Carreras on the front lineg Musselman and Bosma guards, and Vander Roest at the pivot post, the Paper City boys won over the Al- bion Class B ballers 31 to 11. The Cttawa Hill Indians scalped the Central sharp shooters 15 to 11. Kelly, who was chosen all-state center at Detroit, was the hub of the Wigwamers quintet and his ball handling was a big feature. The next week the Maroon and White quintet trekked to the Twin City and won over the revamped Benton Harbor five 18 to 17 in three overtimes. On the following week the Battle Creek Bearcats came to Kalamazoo but were turned back 28 to 27. This was the third major sport event of the year in which Kazoo emerged victorious. i In the last scheduled game of the season the lVlaroon Giants won over the Ottawa Redskins 15 to 13, at the Furniture town. 'bk' Regional Tournament In the regional tournament this year, Kala- mazoo drew the lyluskegon Heights ball club. The Tigers were thought to be a strong team, but their long shots failed and Central beat them 19 to 8. In the semi-finals Kalamazoo took on Battle Creek their ancient rivals, who had drawn a bye in the first round. The Maroon and White players were over-con- fident and managed to win only after being forced to play two overtimes. The count was Page One Hundred Tfwenly-six 18 to 16. Before the first overtime, H. Lett of Battle Creek was awarded a pair of shots and after much delay, made them both and tied the score at 16-all. In the finals of the regional meet Central drew Holland, winner over Benton Harbor, and barely nosed them out 16 to 15. A dence by Vander Roest sewed up the tilt. 'Dk' State Tournament Winiiixig the regional meet was a great thing for the team as they would be allowed to enter the state tournament at Detroit. 'In the first round they drew Port Huron. In a battle of giants, the locals emerged vic- torious with the count 15 to 10. This game was a real heart breaker for the Huronites as they had brought a band down ,nd everythin'. In the semi-finals Kalamazoo played Saginaw Arthur Hills winner over Detroit Southeastern. Selmecy, Bosma and Carreras were the ones who garnered the points. The count was 24 to 21. In the state finals the Kalamazoo dark horse galloped through the first three quar- ters outplaying the heavily favored Detroit Northern quintet. Before the game the bets were that Northern would win by twenty tallies. In the last eight minutes the Thomas- men were slowly slipping but managed to hang on until the last 32 seconds when Manny Fishman sank a one handed shot from the middle of the hardwood Hoor. The final score was 16 to 14. Page One Hundred Tfwenty se-ven Kalamazoo. . . . .

RESERVE BASKETBALL Although the team was new and inexperienced Coach Rudel Ruddy lWiller's reserve basketball shooters went through the 1929-1930 season in good shape, winning nine out of 15 tussles. The Maroon and White seconds rang up 316 points while the enemies' total was 257. With Dale Hughes and Walt Survilla as forwards, Ward Brundage for pivot man, Wes Dadson and Forrest Bresson, at the guard posts, the reserve got off in real style and won the first two games, 11-36 and 18-24 over Albion and Union. With Hughes out of the lineup, the local tossers were forced to lose three sched- uled tilts to Holland, Benton Harbor, and Lansing Central. Kazoo garnered Z7 tallies in these three tilts, while the opponents registered 54. v ' On the VVednesday after the Lansing game, the reserves lost to the Maroon Midgets, a troupe of Central basketeers, 29 to 25. Hughes was back in the lineup but the airtight defense of the diminutive players kept him from ringing up the points. The next Saturday they beat the Cereal team seconds 24 to 16. The following week they lost a hard fought battle to St. Joe. During the next six games, the Maroon and White reserves Went through a period of versatile basketball maneuvers and took all the battles by big margins. The wins came as a result of games with Holland, Albion, Lansing Eastern, Ottawa Hills, Benton Harbor, and Battle Creek. 'In the last tilt of the season, the Ottawa Hillers beat the Maroon reserves 16-22. Probably every man on the first team reserves will see. action in the varsity line- up next season. In the city junior tournament, the Central reserves managed to reach the finals but were defeated in three overtimes by the Third Christian Church team.

CROSS COUNTRY Famous for its champion cross-country teams, Kazoo Central started the 1929 season with the veterans Loomis, Warner, Kipp and Baker. Under Coach A. E. Stoddardls tutelage, the Central harriers journeyed to Three Rivers on October Sth and came home with a 38 to 17 victory. Warner, Baker, and Powell took the first three places, respectively. The week following, Kalamazoo met in their only triangular clash of the season, their opponents being Grand Rapids South and Benton Harbor. The run was staged between the halves of the Kalamazoo-Benton Harbor Football game. Here, Central was nosed out by Grand Rapids South by a narrow margin, and the thin- clad Maroon and Whites had to be content with second place. After a lay-off for two weeks, Central met the W. S. T. C. Frosh and Detroit City College in one of the outstanding meets of the year. Detroit City College was not counted in the Kazoo-Westerri run, and Central beat the Freshmen 35 to 20. Kalamazoo finished in the following order: Warner, first, Baker, thirdg Gerrish, fourthg Loomis, sixth. November Znd, the Regional run was staged to decide which cross-country team would attend the state finals. In this race, Warner and Gerrish of Kalamazoo took the first and third places respectively. Central just nosed out Grand Rapids, 27 to 28. To finish the season, Coach Stoddard took eight men to the State meet at Ypsi- lanti. Kalamazoo was just beaten to the tape by Detroit Northwestern, who had been trying to break the lNfIaroon's record of four successive state championships. Those who received letters were Louis Loomis, Lance Warner, Leslie Gerrish, Lawrence Kipp, Arnold Baker and Raymond Gould. Mr. Stoddard was assisted by student manager, Paul Barthold, and assistant man- ager, Benjamin Willage. Page One Hundred Thirty SPRING TRACK Coach Alonzo E. Stoddard started the 1930 track season with nearly a hundred thin-clad candidates. VVork was begun immediately preparing for the ensuing meets of the season. With so many men returning from the 1929 squad, it became difficult to choose those who were to participate in the meets. Among the outstanding candidates ofthe season were Vernon Bero, javeling Russell Carlton, James Clomon, VVilliam Burrell, and Frank Haiduk, who were the high jumpers, and Erwin Clark, George Garrison, and Russel Carlton, who made it a business of hopping the hurdles. Leslie 'Gerrish, Clif Wilsoii, Clarence Pettiford, and Paul Curry ran the 440 and also composed the team for the mile relay. The veterans, Lance Warner and Arnold Baker were back again for the mile run, and Lawrence Kipp and Louis Kuitert were relied upon to pace the half. Dale Lines was the only veteran returning for the running broad jump and it is expected Louis Loomis will stride the 220. William Pifer and Steve Musselman were the outstanding candidates for tossing the shot, and Carson Neifert, Joe Svan- cara, and Roy Kirshman threw the discus. K One of the outstanding meets of the season was the First Annual Relays that was put on by VVestern State Teachers College on May 3rd. A great deal of encouragement should be given to the underclassmen in this sport. Early entry and participation means strong teams in the future, for these candidates constitute the backbone of the regular squad. Page One Hundred Thirty-one i . - , ,- -N Top Row: N. Smith, W.

Rasmussen, the Mfaroon Splashers again paddled their way through a most successful season! This is the second year in which swimming has been recognized as a major sport. The squad was favored with many new candidates including a large number from the sophomore and freshmen classes. January llth, Kalamazoo met the Battle Creek tank squad here. A close race took place during the whole meet. Central, in the end, nosed out her visitors 36 to 33. On January 18th, Lansing Central paid us a visit and won by a score of 51 to 24. Smarting under this defeat, the Kalamazoo ducks churned the Prison city waters and came home with a nice victory 39 to 36. On February l5th, Lansing Eastern, boasting one of the strongest teams in the state, trimmed Central 53 to 20, and a short time later, Battle Creek, in their own pool, waded through to a 44 over 25 victory. Considering that Central lost two of her best men in mid-season with the grad- uation of Hoppe and VVestra, the lilaroon team finished a very successful season. The team was composed mostly of Juniors and Sophomores. Burrell Lanphear captained the swimming team during the 29-30 season. Those to receive varsity swimming letters were, Burrell Lanphear, Norris Smith, Elmer Westra, Williani Hoppe and Henry Gilfillan. . ' Page One Hundred Thirty-two WRESTLING Intermural Coach Swift F. Noble again directed the 1930 school wrestling tOll I'I13II1Cllt. The big meet attracted over thirty Gus Sonnenbergs and 'lStrangler Lewisesn ready to fell anyone l l Ralph DePue james Cloman willing to meet them in their class. That no poor Freshie would be crushed in the arms of an aspiring for perspiringj sen- ior, five classes were created for the event. The 115 pound class, the 125 pound, the 135 pound, the 145 pound, and the unlimited class. Gold medals were given to the winners of their respective classes. After going through an exciting series of elimination matches there were two left to grapple for the gold medal of their class. ln the paper-weight, technically known as the 115 pound division, Donald Clough claimed the medal by winning one match and receiving a forfeit from Stanke in the finals. Jim Cloman, Champion of the 115 pound class of the year previous, grew up and de- feated Theivos for the title in the 125 pound division. Charles Zurawski pinned Evan's shoul- ders to the miat in the 135 pound division, and for his trouble was presented with a medal, and Virgil Resh the baby-faced entrant of 226 came through to defeat Soules for honors in the 145 division. Ralph De Pue, all-city guard, vanquished his rival Witters for the supremacy in the class known as unlimited. llflr. Noble avers that with all these inter- mural sports, swimming, basketball, baseball, track and wrestling, anyone athletically in- clined have a real chance to make good in their favorite and at the same time receive a medal.

Summaries of matches cannot be recorded at this time due to the necessity of going to press. The prospects, however, were excellent! . llflany of the veterans of last year's team returned with raclcets in hand, ready to take part .in the tourneys. Among those present were Harry Ward, Williaiii John- son, Kenneth Mantele and Gysbert Ruster. A new rule has been introduced in high school tennisthroughout the state, pro- hibiting any player participating in both the singles and the doubles. VVith this rule in effect, teams will be stronger than those of succeeding years as two players cannot win every dual meet and come close to winning the regional, by each winning their respective singles, and a combination of the two winning the doubles. Those to defend the Maroon and White colors in the singles were Clare Ver West, Leo Slosburg, Kenneth Mantele, James Smith and Donald Clough. Doubles were represented by Harry Ward and VVilliam Johnson. Page One Hundred Thirty-four ' , Dick Stites, Henry Brown, Gordon Dilno, Henry Kennedy, Edwin Dayton. ' GOLF Four members of Centra1's 1929 golf squad were back again to play in 1930. As a result, the lVIaroon and White promised to have another outstanding mashie-wield- ing team. Edwin Dayton, Henry Brown, Dave Howard and Dick Stites were the veterans. An exceptionally large number of candidates answered the call at the beginning of the season however. The Central quartet won the regional meet and third place in the state meet in 1929, and the possibilities for greater honors loomed for the 1930 season. Edwin Dayton, a senior who won the VVestern Michigan and Kalamazoo ama- teur titles last year, played his fourth year with the team at Central. Dave Howard is also a senior, but Brown and Stites and several comers will be back to represent the school in 1931. Dayton, Brown, and Stites were all regular members of the 1929 quartet. The 1930 schedule included matches with Benton Harbor, Battle Creek and Jackson besides the regional meet and the state meet at Ypsilanti.

CLASS A VOLLEYBALL, BASKETBALL, FIELDBALL Breaking up the long string of victories hung up by the squad from 226, the Milhamites Were able to crash through in the end and capture the 1929 iieldball trophy. In former times, the all girl cups were held by the Comet room .... they seemed' to be consistent winners, but with graduation its team was deleted of former champions and the 432 girls came through with an attack which netted them their first cup. For an opener the Milhamites played against 226. The Rooseveltiaris had little trouble .... they downed the 1928 champions 20 to 5. They followed this with an 18 to 2 defeat over 130, and prepared themselves for their final game with 424, another undefeated team in the race. But the winning streak of the new champs Was not to be broken. In a terrificly fought battle, the Nlilhamites emerged the Winner by a Hve point margin, andthe 1929- cup became their's to keep. The lyiilhamites then set out to win the basketball trophy. They trounced 424 in a close game 16 to 13 .... for an opener . . . . and cinched the cup in the end by a 25 to 5 win over the 1929 champions. The Roosevelt girls also won the volleyball cup by winning all three contests. They beat 226, 45 to 165 130, 40 to 20, and won their final game 34 to 19.

CLASS B FIELDBALL AND BASEBALL Winging their way through two difficult games the RinkydinlcU club captured the silver 1929 baseball trophy. Une obstacle remained undefeated but the team did not have to beat the 320 outfit to claim the cup. They won two out of three games losing their third contest to the Longley girls by the score of 11 to 4. The champs won from 322, the 1928 cup winners, 11 to 8 and also beat 210 in the Final game 7 to 2. Gertrude Vander Roest pitched good ball for the winners. The following fall the A'Rinkydinks', again took to the air to win the class B fieldball cup. In the initial game the champs tied the 322 outfit 13 to 13. The second contest resulted in an easy win for 2189 the final score against the Slaytonites being 23 to 14. The other two games were taken by one point advantages. The score came when the 320 teams held the Rinkydinks even until the last quarter of play. One minute before the end of the game the winners made a goal from the center line and held the score until the finish.

CLASS B BASKETBALL The 1929 Girls Champions in Class B again claimed the 1930 Basketball trophy after winning three scheduled games and one post season tilt! They were the team representing 322. The first game with 320 proved an easy win for the champions, emerging on the long end of a 13 to 8 score. The winners set up an early lead and maintained it throughout. In the second tilt the Hub,' girls walked away with their opponents, 210, proving the victors by the goodly margin of Z1 to 15. The 'fRinkydinks , how- ever, took the wind out of their sails! In a hotly contested battle, the former team trounced the leaders 16 to 13 after they were leading 13 to 17 at the half. The fight was still in 322 the following night however, for the Hubites beat the- Slaytonites 27 to 8. The 1930 cup winning team was composed of practically the same girls as the year before. VVinifred Schrier, high scoring forward, and Pauline Nlaxam represent- ing the forward wall of the Hub team. Marie Dietrich and Dorothy Elliott played the two guard positions, and Dorothy Schauer, Nellie Bos, and Dena Firestone alter- nated as centers. With the exception of the last two named all will graduate in June..

CLASS B VOLLEYBALL Dividing the athletic honors in Class B as much as possible, the 320 girls took the volleyball cup from 322, the 1929 champs, by winning all four scheduled Contests. In the opening contest the Torchbearers met the fast travelling Hub aggregation, and nosed them out in the end by a slim margin of three points. The Winners led by one point at the end of the first half, and managed to maintain the lead to the finish. In the game between 320 and the Wilsoiiites the champs got away to a splendid start, playing a Hashy brand of ball which bewildered their opponents, establishing a comfortable lead which they maintained throughout the contest. When the cup win- ners played the new Slaytonite team in their third game of the season they were able to win by a high score. 1 A The final and deciding game of the season was played against the.Rinkydink's. The 218 aggregation put up a great fight, the 320 team never having more than a five point margin at any stage of the game. As the game ended in the win column for the Longley girls they finished their season with a perfect record and annexed their first Class B Volleyball championship.

HOEKJE, Registrar IIllIIllIIllIIllIIlIllIllIlllllIIllIlllllllllllllllllllllm Page One Hundred Fifty-one The Fable of the Freshman Who Went Through Central QWith apologies to George Adel Once upon a Time there was a Freshman came to Central High School just to check up on the Changes which had taken place in Education. He was a Fresh Thing with a John Gilbert hair-cut, who said right out that the Radio was a Whip-Zizzer, and the 1930 lVIodels were Darbs. In other Words, he reckoned he was thinking below the Surface of Current Events and told the World .... which, to be Frank, made his tutors put him down for being 100 Percent Yap, and needing a good deal of Training before giving him a Diploma to Citizenship l But, itys pretty hard to Scramble an egg once you've Boiled it. And Bill What's- His-Name entered the Halls of Learning pretty well Done. He had been the Presi- dent of the Student Council of Something or Other where half the bunch that finished take up Pool Playing for an Avocation, and the Competition to be NIU, wasn't so keen. Bill simply Washed his Face and Shone like a new Dollar right out of the lVIint. VVhat's more, he Amounted to Something .... and he Believed itl So when he Brushed his hair and Sharpened his Pencil, and Removed himself from the home district to give the Higher Institute of Learning the Once Over, he about Figured he'd be the Lash right off the Gnat's Eyebrow and it wouldnlt be Long before he would actually Burn up the Place. In other Words, Bill What's-His-Name came over to Central to Wow the Joint! - He had a lot of Wise Cracks up his sleeve that used to go Big where he was Famous, and to make a long story short, Bill began Pulling them Right and Left. The Funny part of this is that No One began paying any Attention to him, and Mother's Pride and Joy began to realize that he was living in an Age when the Hook-and-Eye Industry had gone out of Business and Wimmen were crawling into things without any Help from the Outside! Now Bill was not so Dumbl In Spite of what his Mother told him at the Din- ner table about his being just the Most Wonderful Lad in Existence, Bill closed up like a Clam, went into a Mental Struggle, and without Looking for an Argument decided that Freshmen were to be Seen and not Heard. As it was he began Watching the other Boys! He Discovered rather early at Central that What you Came with didn't Amount to llfluch .... and if you were going to be the Big Shot before Graduation, the Early Training had to be taken Seriouslyl Bill Took it all like a Man! His parents thought he was suffering from a Com- plex he was so quiet, but the point is, Bill was Talking to Himself. He began liking the Idea that his Teacher didn't Bundle him up before Sending him home Winter nights .... Telling him how nice it was to he Made a 100 in Spelling .... and that he should Hurry because his Manima might want him to Run to the Grocery store before Dark. In other Words, Bill found out Quickly, that at Central you were out on your Own, and the Impression you made was Pretty Much up to You! After Two Years of Listening, Bill had Gotten into Long Pants .... But he had Gotten into Something Else tool He no longer needed a Guardian for his Page One Hundred Fifty-tfwo ' - Locker Key, and his Home Room had sent him to the Student Council because they felt, Right Out, Bill Knew his Business! He had taken his Learning with that Extra grain of Salt which caused his Instructors to think him a Promising Youth for the Future, and, they began to Express their Opinions of Him by putting A's and B's on his Report Card. His Parents developed a new kind of Pride in Him! About the only thing Father ever told Bill was that he couldn't use the Car every night .... and that he Hoped, someday, he'd be Toting a Pig-Skin for the Nlaroon and White of his old Alma Mater. Mother on the other hand, Kept his socks darned, put an Extra Chop in the Skillet to Keep him Growing, and Recognized that her Son was Actually growing Up! Before the leaves had Dropped in the Fall, Bill had learned to keep his head down, follow his interference and Make touchdowns! He never got his uniform Dirty unless it was actually Necessary, but when he did he usually did Considerable Damage. He came up Smiling every time .... he Played to VVin .... Played Clean .... Used his Head, and During his Senior year was Elected Captain! The More Promising Young Ladies liked him .... But Bill never allowed it to Bother him Much! He thought about them, of course, but they never interfered a great deal with Chemistry! He Recognized too, a Drug Store, during the Noon Hour, was a kind of Social Nusiance .... and a Hamburg out of a Bakery, wasn't exactly the way to eat a Meal! While the other Fellows were Up the Alley, Bill was Using his Time to a good Advantage Because he had to! In other words, he was now a member of the Virtuous Nfinority, but he was going Strong, and Hitting pretty well on all Eight! The Longer Bill lived, the more he looked and Acted like he was Somebody! He didn't take on a lot of Suet .... and his Only Claim to Distinction did not Lay in the Fact that he ran an Open field for Ninety Yards in the Last two Minutes of Play! Nor it wasn't because he was a good student in Vergil .... because he Wasn't! It was Because Bill had Realized that to be a Man didn't mean much more than doing your Best .... and Bill was doing that every day! i The Result was, that Bill's Senior Year was about the Best Thing that ever could Happen! He Didn't think his Teachers were all Yaps, and he wasn't very anxious to Leave the Place. He- Sprained his ankle his last year in Football, but he Didn't sit on the bench and Grumble. He wanted to be out there doing his Bit, but Bill had time to Realize there were Other Fellows in School besides himself. When Bill's Ankle did get well, he Tore things up in Great Style .... said, f'That's That! and forgot about it! He made the National Honor Society and told his Mother .... But he didnyt expect it to carry him through a course in Bible! Bill got to Dance pretty well, but he didn't need Jazz Music and the Ghost of his Future Partner to send him into Realms of unforgotten Bliss! He used to Walk by the Trophy Case and see the things he had Helped his School to Win .... Feel Glad he was Alive .... and always Believed that he was going to,Class pretty well Prepared for what he was there for! When Bill Graduated the Underclassmen felt they would Miss Him .... His Teachers were all very Proud of him .... and Central was Exceedingly Pleased to Claim him, as their Product. The Moral is: .... You Never Can Tell! A Freshman in High School can always surprise you, providing he ismade of the Right Stuff and you give him Plenty of Time!

E1 Page One Hundred Sixty-nine uulunnuuuuffl My First Cross-country Flight iiWOL1ld you like to go to Lake Michigan with the ship next Sunday. P!! Would I like to go! In the order of their seniority, the Flying School had been giving its students cross-country flights whenever a plane was sent out on a barnstorming trip. And now my turn had come! I was told that one of the stenographers from the office of the president of the school had been planning on taking a trip for some time, and that it had been planned that she and I would go together. The ship was to leave the Battle Creek airport at 9:45, andi at 10:00 was to take me aboard at our Kalamazoo port. Sunday brought a beautiful morning along with it, and I was at Lindbergh Field considerably earlier than was necessary to meet my appointment. As I walked up and down the concrete apron in front of the hangar, I had plenty of time for ob- servation. The visibility was unusually good, but the windcone indicated a strong and not very steady head Wind for us. I had heard the pilot say that the flight from Kalamazoo to our destination on the Lake would require about forty-five minutes, but such a wind would reduce the ground speed considerably. That would only make the flight last longer, and to that I would have no objection. At ten oiclock I began watching the sky. A number of ships were in the air, and since the atmosphere was unusually clear, they could be seen from a considerable distance. Whenever one appeared in the East, I was sure it' was bringing 'my pilot and fellow passenger, but for nearly an hour 'I was disappointed. Even before the plane was close enough for me to see the distinguishing outlines and marks which each make of ship carries, the sound of the motor told me that it was not the one I was looking for. A pilot's ears become very sensitive to the sound of the motor he is accustomed to using, probably because he is always listening, whether consciously or not, for any slight warning sound of trouble. The sound peculiar to the Kinner motor which powers the American Eagle I have been flying, I could recognize among a Whole 'fllocki' of airplanes. , At last a tiny speck in the distance grew into the proportions of the Eagle, and in a minute or two she had settled into port and was taxiing toward the apron. There is something fascinating about that ship. She has a mean, predatory look which has earned for her the name of Ant-eaterf, and as she taxies toward you, you almost want to turn and run, yet you stand and watch her come, admiring her every second. CHer mean look is due to the mounting of the motor. nThe Kinner is a comparatively light engine, and for the sake of longitudinal balance, is hung in the tip of a long, down-pointing, awfully 'fsnootyu nose.j In less than two minutes I had greeted the late arrivals Chad they been as ex- cited over the trip as 'I was, they would not have been latej, had climbed aboard, and We were on our way to take-off position. We had scarcely left the ground before the ship began to roll. We climbed steadily, trying to get over the bumps. At 6500 feet the air was less rough, though Page 0712 Hundred Seventy the Eagle still pitched and rolled. From that height, objects on the ground looked very small, but because of the exceptional visibility they were not less clear than they frequently are from much lower altitudes. Our entire trip was over territory with which I was familiar, and it was very interesting to see how different it looked from the air. About 'eighteen miles west of Kalamazoo, we caught sight of Lake Michigan's shore line and could follow it for miles to the North. To the South we could clear- ly see it curve up toward Chicago. It was the first successful attempt I had made to get an aerial View of anything. When I was in the White Mountains, I made a pilgrimage to the top of Mt. Washington, only to find its peak wrapped in swirling, damp clouds. After hours of waiting for the clouds to break away, 'I had to come down again without seeing even a suspicion of the view 'I had climbed to see. I had the same experience on Pike's Peak. But the earth was beautiful on this morn- ing of my first cross-country flight, and looked like a formal garden laid out beneath the ship. , A We had been out about twenty minutes whe11 I saw my shipmate lean far out. Wondering what was attracting her attention, I' leaned as far out on my side as I could to see what it might be. I could see nothing. And it was some moments before I discovered that she was acutely ill from the pitching of the ship-and not interested in the scenery at all. I am told that air sickness is to be dreaded even more than sea sickness, and, naturally, my own enjoyment was lessened a bit just then by my concern for my fellow passenger. Later, however, I was glad to see that she was quite herself again. The clouds were not many that morning, and the few that were cruising along before the wind, were beautifully white. Limited as my meteorlogical knowledge is, I was able to identify them as belonging to the strato-cumulus variety with their straigth lower edges and big bulgy tops. Occasionally one of them would envelop the ship, and for a moment we would be unable to see. If clouds were tangible things, we could have brought home armfuls of them. It seemed that only a few minutes had passed when the pilot throttled back and began to descend to the landing field which was on the shore of a small lake inland a bit from Lake Michigan, but my watch showed that an hour and ten minutes had passed since our leaving the Kalamazoo port. The strong head wind had delayed us nearly half an hour. A crowd was waiting for us, many of whom, We found, had already purchased tickets from the advance agents entitling them to rides in the ship. Barnstormers have always thought it good business to give 'em a thrill by way of a little free advertising, and in accordance with that idea we made a few vertical banks, then, with a full gun, Hew low over the little lake,-so low that the landing gear almost touched the water-zoomed up over a row of tall trees, and side slipped to a three- point landing. My first cross-country flight had been all that I had hoped for. I L. BLAISDELL. Page One Hundred Seventy-one . -A fuelmn 'fc-,oaus . , wonoc-as nr ,, LJ- QIQNW- QHGE-imgmue cms wxll Hu 411 5.4!

By no means! What valuable acquisitions have been mine these past years! I know today what it means to be all wetn, to make whoopeen, Hand howl But I had to go to the capital of our country to really understand what it means to be up in the air . We motored. Our chauffeur was what is termed air-minded. Do you sup- pose we could keep our car on a level stretch? Not much. Up mountains we must go till I thought at times our car had sprouted wings and was attempting to Hy. It was spring, the country was beautiful. VVhat prospects of wheat and corn for hungering humanity the fields presented! Oh no-just possible landing fields. The great hawks and buzzards soaring over Gettysburg were all making nose dives, or banking, or 'fside slipping. - We did reach VVashington safely, and because we were in the neighborhood, we walked through the capitol the first afternoon. 'Upon returning to our hotel a little later, we were greeted by a man with a folder, See Washington by Air. That was enough. Nothing to be seen on foot seemed worth while when once I hinted that I'd like to fly. The third member of our party, a little more conservative, de- cided she would keep her feet upon the solid earth, especially as it might be necessary to get into hurried communication with our families. The next day we drove to Mount Vernon. Of course, that was merely a subter- fuge. An airport was enrouteg it was clearly to be seen through the wealth of cherry blossoms that lined the Tidal Basin. We passed it on the way out, and our car balked a little, but we managed to get by. Mount Vernon was all right, in its way, but you know, there it is, just where it has always been, so immovable, somehow. And Washington did live there, but within a few miles was something more up-to-date, an airport. The visit did not have to be ,a long one, we paid our respects to the home of our first President and then moved on. Now for the ride! VVe drove past gasoline stations, hot dog stands, dump heaps, sand piles, to a little back-water pond, and up to a little, stucco office. A man prompt- ly appeared. He wore wings Cmetal onesj on his collar. Did we want to fly? And we countered, could we see Washington? An open plane or a cabin? Biplane or Monoplane? We chose the latter as it seemed to offer the best view. In we climbed, our land-loving friend waiting a minute in the car to powder her nose. We settled ourselves. Now for the Hight! Slowly we taxied across the field, slowly we rose in the air. I held tightly to a rod that happened to be near, for I did not choose to leave the plane suddenly before my ride was ended. Then I looked down and realized we were sailing serenely over the Capitol dome. I settled back a little for 'I did mean to see everything as comfortably as I could. The Lincoln Memorial was pointed out, the river, many little bugs of cars, Arlington, and then-a little stucco building, walking out from which was IVIiss Gs-who had come to see us start. The ride was over. C. EDWARDS. Page One Hundred Seventy-six E ----'--- ------'-- Q Q ------ r ---- ---------- le Compliments The Of STAR PAPER CO. COMPLIMENTS .

Johnnieys family was .... well, just another family! 'It consisted of a mother and father who in those earlier days had dashed to the window at the first feeble Hchugn of the horseless carriage .... and then had turned to stare at each other, wondering what the world was coming to! In addition, Johnnie had a grandfather who related, at least twice a week, the story of how his horse Lucy had at one time lbeaten the K'anty at the local county fair. When Johnnie arrived, his proud parents were still following in the foosteps of 'Dobbin .... and travelling at a pretty reckless clip .... if speed was anything to be considered at all. In short they were humdingers for progress! They talked about everything taking the place of the old as something terrible! .... but :give them a chance to look it over, and adventure got the best of them. They fell .in linen and Johnnie was reared in the throws of parental evolution! During Johnnie's earlier days he was wrapped in a blanket and given his fresh :air in the observation seat of a shiny two lunger! It was a trade in on the equine . . . . and Dobbin's passing was never regretted. Time passed, and Johnnie was lnxiously waiting for his first lesson in his Pop's new Six , while at present he is Ianguidly trying to push the accelerator through the Floor board in the family's latest acquisition .... A Master Straight Eight! The fact is, Johnnie has developed into a lad quite like his father was when he was a boy. But instead of being interested in the prehistoric motor vehicle, Johnnie rared over seats and desks at the sound of a distant airplane roar, and now doesn't 'even bat an eyelid when a whole flock of them go sailing by the school room windows. That's what time does to any human . . . that's what some people call 'uprogressy' .... But anyhow, the point is this: Men used to talk in thousands .... Now they play around with cool mil- lions, and Johnnie's mind has developed along the same lines. His kindergarten days .are gone! Instead of wishing for the glimpse of a plane, he dreams of rides in them . . . . of owning his own monogrammed, silver plated, luxurious cabined, radio- guided, trimotored sky-skimmer! And ohnnie's poor mother is rowing prematurel ray trying to decide if g Y g ohnnie should H .... and tr in to convince his oun er sister, May, that her Y Y g Y g 'first duty is to the family limousineu! Of course she wanted to say to Mary, In the Home . . . . but she knew better. Mary would have gone up in the airu -over such a tyrannical, narrow-minded statement! Plane crashes continue to keep in close harmony with gangsters, bootleggers and kidnappers. Headline horrors cause pessimists unbounded joy! But though Plane 'Wreckage Given Up by Sean, 'AAviator Leaps to His Deathu, or Plane Burns, Four Killedn, appear in the headlines every day, the world flies on along with time, the birds and the angels .... mostly angels .... if parental knowledge means any- 'thing to Uwe modems .

When the family argument becomes too heated . . . he recites the tale of some famous aviator teaching his beloved wife to Hy. There's method in his madness .... The murderer! says Uncle Elmer . . But you can't tell! It's quite likely he has the vision of a new age .... and he is doing the next best thing he can think of to protect his darling from reckless auto drivers and speed-- ing motorcycles. But Johnnie mustnlt fly , says mother .... and father agrees . . . . and so they pounce upon him. At last he is convinced. The heavy drone of the engines will wreck his nerves , says father .... and those parachutes never open when they shouldll' And Johnnie is convinced! .... FOR A DAY! In a single day progress has leaped forward .... and the airplane is litigated to the last limbo of Salem witch piography! A sneaking Scotchman springs a new one! A glider! .... Sure it must have been a Scot .... No Motor! .... No Fuel! .... Think of it .... I ask you .... Will Johnnie be a Lindbergh? .... You might as well ask, Can Johnnie ride a bicycle? SARAH JANE XVATSON, '30..'.. 'ak ALBATROSS See where it soars, this thing by man created- This Heshless bird on straining pinions spread, Which dares the deep for some far port ahead, Creature of timeless quest insatiated: Ponderous albatross, unsired, unmated, Hot craw athirst, on fulminations fed, Plowing a path where only lightnings sped, Like some huge soul unshackled and elated. Now it is gone with all its whining roar, And now the dreamy soughing of the sea Takes up its song of fog and stormy weather. The waves drift in as idly as before, And flashing seagulls, half unconsciously, Descend and rise as lightly as a feather. J. E. Sclwoos.
