Michigan State Normal College Occupations CLASS POEM Through all the schools of the east and west We of ’23 think that Flint High is best When first we came with courage none We were sore afraid and wandered alone But in spite of taunts and mocker’s cry There never was a school like old Flint H gh. So boldly we entered the very next day We felt like soldiers arranged for the fray And thus went the days of our freshman year, Through classes and interviews we went without fear But let us say ere departure we take We’ve made many a blunder and silly mistake. We’ve kept up the standards with utmost pride And now we bequeath them to those at our side We’re not sorry we came to the dear old school For knowledge obtained is in our hand a tool We have felt every hour of our course is worthwile From a comrade’s voice to a teachers’ smile. And as we depart and follow our call We feel we are fitted to combat with all Of the various phases of strenuous life; To do our part and win in the strife And we must pledge our allegience true Ere to old Central we bid adieu. We have a clear outlook, we've won in the fight We’ve completed the course, the future is bright, Since in four short years we’ve won the race And others are here to take our place We are off to victory and great success With heartfelt thanks to old F.

As we approach the parting of the ways, we cannot help but wonder what the future holds for each of us. Some of you will have the rare privilege of attending higher institutions of learning, while some must get their further education in the University of the Universe. In any case, Burns offers great consolation when he says:— “The rank is but the guinea stamp The man's the gawd for a’ that.” Well might you ask, “But what attributes must one possess to be the ‘Gawd’?” I should answer, “Determination, integrity, loyalty, industry, health and a sane outlook on life.” These might be called “the big six.” ou will never amount to much until you have a life aim and commit yourself absolutely without reservation to the accomplishments of that worthy purpose—for worthy it must be. The world makes way for the determined man. To have society consider you a man of integrity, a man who plays the game according to rule, is a fine compliment. In the southwestern part of the United States the Chinese use the expression “to tote fair” by which they mean the same thing that Roosevelt did when he spoke of the “square deal”—to act honestly. “Tote fair” in every act of your lives if you would be successful. Be loyal. Stand by your decisions, your family, your state, your school, your country. All the world hates a quitter. We feel nothing but contempt for the soldier who deserts on the eve of battle; for the sailor who abandons his ship at sea; or for the cook who leaves on the day of the banquet. “If you want knowledge, you must toil for it; if food, you must toil for it; and if pleasure you must toil for it; toil is the law,” says Ruskin. One cannot expect mastery without apprenticeship, knowledge without study, or wealth without work. Indolence is a mighty handicap. Work now and gather wisdom so that when your Great Day of Opportunity comes, you may not miss your destiny. A robust, vigorous body, as well as an alert mind is necessary to meet the present competition. You must be able to endure the strain of this strenuous game of Life and also reserve sufficient energy for the final stretch. If you possess health, there is no reason why you should not radiate cheerfulness and good will. And lastlv. don’t dwell on ugliness and indulge in pessimism but believe in the beauty and goodness of the world, for it is written in the Book of Books:—“What- soever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.” ELSA W.

At different times during the year there have been requests for money. Usually they came from deserving organizations and for deserving purposes. But no matter how loyal we are nor how deserving the cause, repeated requests appear to dampen the spirits of the most ardent booster and depreciate the worth of the best of causes. This is one of the conditions that must be remedied. In other schools the same difficulty has arisen and has been overcome. The remedy is in the form of a Blanket Tax” or “Blanket Fee” the cost of which would not exceed seventy-five cents a semester. For this fee each student would be admitted to the various athletic events, the oratorial contests, the school parties and other student activities. The benefits of such a system are easy to see. Instead of someone asking for money once or twice a week there would be only the one assessment at the begining of each semester and a greater participation would be assured. Summing up the amount that students have subscribed this year we find that for the last semester the athletic contests alone have amounted to nearly two dollars and fifty cents. Yet according to the athletic director the athletics for the semester could be financed for fifty cents per student. OUR ADVERTISERS “If, from a man, you would accept a compliment, then to that man extend the compliment first, and if that man to you should first extend the compliment then you to that man the compliment must return,” was the poetical way Confucius long ago told his followers to appreciate favors granted them. Let us appreciate the courtesy extended us by our advertisers and when we buy, buy from them. Let’s let our purchases express our appreciation. IT HAPPENED THIS WAY “The old order passeth and maketh way for new.” As people and organizations outgrow their usefulness they must, of necessity, be replaced by new ones that will carry out the required work. The Athletic Association was originated many years ago to take care of the scheduling of games but the volume of athletics grew until it was a huge task to skillfully arrange a schedule so that a team might be carefully prepared for its vital games and yet have a season that would be a success financially. As the problem grew it became necessary to engage a man whose business it was to arrange such schedule and to manage the finances of athletics so that gradually the original purpose of the Athletic Association became lost and the organization lost its effectiveness and be- came merely an advertising agency. As an advertising body the Association was not very efficient because it was unable to establish contact with the students. When the Student Council was re-organized it was possible for the members of that body to get information directly to the students and in that way accomplish that which was impossible through the old association. Accordingly when the time came for a new association election the director saw the value of the broader contact and asked that the Athletic Association be discontinued. THANKS To Miss Margaret Moore and Mr. Archie Humphrey we feel we owe a debt that can only be spoken of and not repaid. Since the beginning of the work on the Annual they have cheerfully worked with us to make the book a success. The Staff takes this opportunity to express its deep appreciation and gratitude for this service. 94 HISTORY NEIGHBORS The Historical Drama of the Class of 1923. CAST OP CHARACTERS Martha Jane Alvina Archibald Isadore Thomas Act I. Sene I. Room D: (packed with Freshies) presided over by Miss Armstrong— middle of September. Martha (who sits in back of room): Do you suppose I shall dare go up to the desk to sharpen my pencil? Jane: Why of course, silly, who’s going to bite you? Martha: Yes, I know, but I’m afraid I might fall over somebody’s foot stuck in the aisle and if I did those nasty boys would just howl. Jane: Well if you aren’t the limit. Matty, I’ll do it for you. If the boys want to laugh over such things let them. (Goes to front of room and sharpens pencil.) Martha: You’re a dear for doing it. (Titter all over the room.) Neighbor to Jane and Martha: That’s a senior making that announcement; mercy I wonder if I could ever do it so calmly. Archie: Gee, this is a pretty big room isn’t it fellows. Isie: I’ll say and I certainly think Miss Armstrong has her hands full. Say guys, have you laid your lamps on a guy they call ‘‘Papa Suitor?” I have and say he’s a crank about those old stairs. He’s always yelling out “Straight line please” or “One step at a time.” Archie: Ha. Ha! I wonder what sort of a teacher he is. Isie: Oh! he’s a pretty good scout I guess, I’ve bad him just a few davs for nlH “vohro ” Neighbor: Say don t those girls get red in the face though when they come to the front of the room? I wonder what’s the matter with them? Archie: Saint Vitus dance. I guess. Isie: Yeah, I guess so, well there goes the bell. Miss Armstrong’s room in Temporary No. 1. Second Semester. Archie: Well, gang, what do you think of the new temp.? I’m glad we got Miss Armstrong again. Act I.' Scene II. Act I. Scene III. 96 —1 HISTORY Act II. Scene I. Miss Wiggin’s room. Third day of school. Isie: Well, Thomas, aren’t you glad you aren’t a “Green Freshie?’’ We’ll be a little bit more respected at least. Thomas: I should hope to tell you I’m glad to be out from under the claws of a Sophomore. Say isn’t it great the way we have these tabernacles built for us? The school board’s making another one now. Archie: Yes, there is room for two more yet but I hope they won’t have to build more. Act II. Scene II. Jane: Land! Miss Wiggins is sure death on candy and gum chewing, isn’t she? Mar: I should say, but I’m sure 1 like her real well, don’t you, Alvina? Al: Oh! I’m crazy about her, but Pm scared to death of her. I can fairly count the days of ease in her geometry classes. Mar: Ha! Ha! You’ll get over that. Say we are big enough to have class officers now, aren’t we? Jane: Yes, I wasn’t able to come to the election. Who did you say they are? Mar: Milton Pettibone is President, Elizabeth Cody is Vice-President, Mary Barrett, Secretary, and Tod French is Treasurer. Al: I guess they are all right. Jane: I wish we could have a class party, don’t you, the Juniors go to two. one they give and one the Seniors give them. Mar: Yes, well it won’t be so very long before we are Juniors. Act III. Scene I. Room P, presided over by Miss Dietrich. One morn in early September. Jane: Well, hello! Martha, I’m sure glad to be back at school. Some way I don’t dread the first few days like I did when a Freshie or a Soph. Mar: Neither do I, and Jane, old dear, isn’t it wonderful to be able to have our session room on the main floor. I’m also happy to find Miss Dietrich is really going to be our session room teacher. Neighbor. I m just sick to think they have to stick up another old temporarv, it spoils the looks of the grounds so. Jane: So am I, I wish Flint didn’t grow so dreadfully fast. Act III. Scene II. Room P. Archie: Well, I declare, guys, I’m not going to be as fortunate in my wish about another tabernacle because they’re sticking up another one. Isie: Yes, curses! It begins to look like an old hen and her brood of chickens ’round here. Thomas: Yes, and the worst of it is they have to destroy our grand chestnut tree that has been used for so many hazing stunts. Well, I’m off to see Parm (Goes out.) Archie: Say, the officers are a pretty good bunch this year aren’t they? Thomas: I wasn’t there, who are they? Archie: Francis George, President; Irene Richard, Vice-President; Olive Mears Secretary, and Sherw'ood Russell is Treasurer. Thomas: You bet they are good, Sherwood will make a strong treasurer. (Bell rings for classes and conversation breaks up.) Act III. Scene III. Dryden Hall—Night of Junior-Senior Party. Mar: Well, Jane, this is one of the nights you have so long looked forward to are you having a good time? Jane: You bet I am, and I’ve bad some wonderful dances with both boys and girls, but mostly boys. What do you think of it. Mattv? Mar: Well, I’m having a lot better time than I did at the one the Seniors gave us, I think it’s much better both in decoration and program. 97 HISTORY Jane: Yes, I think we put it over on the Seniors too, its fun to beat them at their own game. Mar: Well, here comes Frances so bye! bye! Jane: Here is Max too, I’ll see you later. Act IV. Scene I. Room P. Mar: Oh! I’m so glad we are going to have Miss Dietrich once more for session room teacher. Jane: I couldn’t be better pleased. Neighbor: The class election of officers will take place a week from tomorrow, you want to be sure to come. Jane and Mar.: We’ll be there with bells on. Act IV. Scene II. (After election of officers.) Jane: Well, I’m glad Sherwood is President, he’s the sort that will make good at whatever he attempts, and I’m glad Olive Mears is Vice-President, she’s capable of handling affairs if something should happen to Sherwood. Mar: Yes, I think so too, and the other two are good. Katharine Woodward for Secretary and Robert MacRae as Treasurer. Act IV. Scene III. Month of May—In lower corridor of old Flint High. Isie: Well, gang, this old domain has seen quite a few changes this last year, n’ est pas? Archie: I should say. The student council for one example has done wonders the past year through the organization. Of course hall guards did good service last year, but it has been superfine this year. Thomas: Yes, but the most important of its contributions has been its frequent callings for mass meetings. Neighbor: Yes, mass meetings certainly bring every one together as nothing else can do. I shan’t soon forget the time such gatherings usually were held in Court Street M. E. Church, for lack of other auditorium facilities, will you? Al: No! There goes the last bell—so-long boys, see you later. Act IV. Scene III. Auditorium in New High School—after the graduation exercises. Jane: Oh! Matty, at last I have my sheep skin in my clutches. I just can’t grasp the meaning of ii though It seems as though I may step into some dark abyss if I’m not careful. Oh! I wish I was a little girl again and I would cry. Mar: Why, Jane dear! Do you feel that way about it all? I admit that it wouldn’t take much to make me feel just as badly but we simply mustn’t be so babyish. Just think how many fellow-classmates there are who are thoroughly glad to think they are through with what seemed to them a drudgery. Jane: That helps a lot, Matty, to hear you give such counsel, and I suppose after all, those who have been real friends will continue their friendships, even though it may be through correspondence rather than through verbal conversation. Well, as a class we have certainly had a happy time and have many things to remember, such as the four supervised class parties, football banquet, faculty party for Seniors, our grand Senior picnic and best of all our trip to Niagara Falls. Of course the succeeding classes will have the advantage of this marvelous new' building, but I wouldn’t take anything for my four years in the old building with all its surrounding halls of learn- ing. I would thoroughly have enjoyed being in this for the last half of this year. but. “There is no use crying over spilt milk,” is there, old dear? Mar: No. there certainly is not. Well, most everyone has gone out into the halls while we have been conflabing. Francis said he w'ould w'ait for me at the front entrance. Jane: Max said he would be there too. So I’ll walk along with you. (Walk out with arms about each other, caps and gowms on. Diplomas in their hands.) 98 Who’s Who 1943 BIOGRAPHIES pRDl A Adams, Francis b. Yes. A lawyer, poor but honest.

Taut est fini. 114 JKtlrletics 116 «% Editor’s Note: Readers, we wish to present to you the personal opinion of each of Central High’s football players regarding himself. As athletes are always modest please do not think the abilities and opinions of the “huskies” are limited to the ones mentioned. Winning an undisputed state title is an accomplishment never before made by any athletic team of Central High and never before was the school honored by having the Captaincy of the All-State Eleven. Dan Weiss, our “fighting full-back” was chosen for this honor and Russell Davis red-head quarter also placed on the team. With prospects so bright for next year, we look for a rapid repetition of both honors. C k “DAN” Captain Daniel Weiss—Full Back. I am unlike most football players, my bashfulness and good looks put me in a class by myself. I am sorry to leave the old institution but then you’ll no doubt hear of me soon on Mr. Camp’s All-American. 1 drove the team with a ready foot and I was the first to congratulate a man on a good play. Dan was not only captain of Central’s team but also Captain and fullback of the All-State eleven. Dan’s pass- ing, plunging and interference, coupled with his sports- manship made him one of the most respected men in scholastic football circles. Dan is a real player and, Dan made an ideal leader, and is to be congratulated on the team he lead. '1 “BONES” Ralph Wills—Half Back—Captain-Elect. I’m small—but—the bigger they are the harder they fall. I’m fast and I’m a deceptive runner. Did you notice the way I dive? Pretty nice I think. I can hit the line and opponents are fooled when they see me shoot off tackle for first down. Bones is a pretty player. He looks like the able player he is. Last year was his first appearance in High School football and at the first of the season was known as “the over all kid.” Bones is a hard hitting back-field man and will make an excellent captain. i ill 117 “RUSS” Russell Davis—Quarter Back. Did you ever see such a beautiful marcel? Un- like most marcels mine is real and of a permanent nature. I am sure some little man but just the same I am a good football player. I like to hide behind the center for a while and then slide through the line for long gains or shoot around the ends. I can sure run back punts and you should see me run cross-legged. Russ was a real football player, too, and were sure sorry to lose him. He put lots of life into the team with his “Come on now. let’s go.” “MALTBY” Roy Malt by—Half Back. People who have seen us both are having a hard time to tell whether I’m just as good or better than the old time Johnny Maulbetch, my appearance is the same and my ability, if there is any difference in the ability of we two stars, I’m perhaps a little more versatile. I’ve played every where in the back field and my worth is equal in any position. Roy is a consistent working back, and could always be depended upon in the pinch. He is a Senior and our loss will be felt when a new team is built. “BRAZ” Llyod Braxill—Half Back. I’m the tallest man on the squad and my ante- lope pace though it has caused many laughs, has gained many yards for the team. I loved to tear in and intercept a pass and after avoiding two or three tacklers lope over for a touch down and then too. I like to romp down about forty yards and pick one of Dan’s spirals off and put the team up where it belongs. I’m a sure tackier and my interference is nearly perfect. I’m really very good now but watch me in the next two years. Lloyd came to us when we were looking for ends and though he looked good at the flank position his running and kicking ability put him in the back field. He is a real player and will be with us for two years yet. “BUCK” Albert Bridgman—Half Back. I, Albert Bridgman, I’m fast and shifty. I can pass and run and receive passes. I used to help Warm the bench but then I got plenty of action when I did get in. I’m all through but I’ll be back next year telling the gang how they should play. “Buck” was handicapped by a broken nose but he had the “stuff.” 118 “LEG BREAKER” Louis Hathaway—Half Back. I’m the fellow what knocked the legs off the tackling dummy and that took one off that Scott back. I’m a hard hitter, and I’m going to be back next season to lay ’em out again. I’m the fellow the coach said to “hit ’em hard and hit ’em low.” Louis was the most compact man at the squad and when he clipped ’em they stayed clipped. We’re looking forward to see him get ’em next year. “ZEB” Edwarcf Gilbert—End. I’m lean and I’m lanky and I’m fast and I’ve got loads of sand and I’m sure of passes and I’m good on punt location and I’m not afraid to dive under plays. This was Zebs last year and though he looked thin he sure was there under punts and passes and he knocked open the tight plays around his end of the line. Zeb is the kind of man coaches delight in. Steady, reliable and cool under fire. “MONKY” Roy Weiss—End. I’m another “Wefss” and the younger they get the tougher they get, (yes, I’ve got a young brother but I’m not the oldest either.) I’m the best end F. H. S. has ever seen in action. When a play comes my way it is smeared. I get my ears pealed back and I’m all set. I don’t like head gears. Yes, Roy Is tough, many opposing backs will vouch for that. We sure liked to see him spill the end runs and get the runner. Roy was on the receiv- ing end of the “Weiss to Weiss” combination that won many games. “SHAFTY” Glenn Shaft—End. I’m Shaft, I’m an end, I like the game with its knocks and bruises, I like to battle and get hurt and then I’m good at lots of things. I can snare passes, race down under punts and tackle runners. I could show ’em up when I got the chance. Shaft will be with us next year and will likeiv be in Gilbert’s place. Glenn is a hard worker and a hard man to hurt. 119 “FRASER” Ross Fraser—End. I’m good and I admit it. I’m better than any end in Michigan with possible exception of Goebel. I was kept on the bench in order to keep people talking about the present day sport prodigies. I look good in a football suit and I play the game because I like applause. Editor’s note: (That’s not all bunk.) “BERTHA” ,1antes Warren— IAneman. I’m Big Bertha. I’m good as a lineman or as a meal (ask ’em at Scott, they took a bite.) Did you ever see me block a line? Didn’t you think that it was well done? I did. My form on charging and blocking is nearly perfect, showing that I have studied poise with diligence. Jim is a friend to every man on the team. His ready smile and black eye, which he kept most of the season, made him a favorite. Jim was kept out of the game on account of infection for over a month. We’re sorry to see Warner leave and wish him great success. “EDNA” Clay Eatherton—Tackle. I’m as good an all round football player as there is in the state. I can place tackle and “bust ’em’’ or plunge through the line as a full back. I’m in love but that doesn’t bother me as a player. I’m finishing high school this year. Clay is a big hearted, good natured fellow who always sports a grin that was a fooler “Edna” would laugh with you but he would “bust” you at the same time. We’re sorry to see him go because we lose a fine player and because he blushed so easily. “NICK” Nick Canning—Lineman. With only two hands I can push or pull any lineman in the state so far out of position that no play set for my side of the line has any chance of succeeding. I’m the toughest man on a hard squad of men. I’m big. I’m aggressive and I’ve never had the novel experience of being afraid. Nick came a little late but he soon made up for lost time. Football was a new game to him. but his record shows his aptness as a pupil. 120 “FAT” Harold Betts—Center. I’m “Fat” Betts, that fact alone should be suf- ficient but if there are any who are uninformed as to my ability and my achievements I would like to say that I’m in a class with Vick and Ace but con- fidentially I don’t believe either of them played as rough nor as steady as I did. I was hurt badly several times but I always stuck it out. Betts was a good man to hold the center of the line, his cherubic grin and fighting face are well known around school and many opposing centers have given up when ‘‘Babe” sat on them. Harold will be here for two more years. “SWEDE” Carleton Blake—Guard. I’m the most desperate fighter on Mayer’s fight- ing football squad. I have never quit fighting as long as I was on the squad. I’m a fierce charger and 1 have hurried passes and kicks so that accuracy was im- possible. Men like to play next to me because I do more than my share, when in charging I take along two men and when a play comes my way I bust it on the right side of the line. “Swede” does all that and more. Of this boy’s fighting spirit to much cannot be said. His example was followed by every man on the squad. This was Carl’s last vear and we sure hate to see him leave. HERM” Herman Young—Tackle. I’m the best tackle in the state, the all state chooser must have been blind not to see it. Though this is my first year with the team I’m as good a man as there is on the team. I never had time taken out nor was I boxed in once. I’m coming back for three years. Herm is a favorite with the fellows. His quiet- ness adds to his attractors. His ready smile for his friends keep them close to him while his opponents have seen his fighting face. We’re waiting for the next season to see Herm out again. Hazen Sills—Lineman. I’m the nerviest man on Central’s football squad, I’m not afraid of anything or anyone I’ve ever seen. I play tackle, guard or even center when the oc- casion demands. I never missed a night’s practice nor was I taken out of a scrimmage session during the entire season. Hazen is really well known, not just widely known. Everyone who knows him has a good word for him. Hazen will be back next year. 121 Wfm Dana Llesly—Halt Hack I’m Dana Llesly, I'm the smallest and fastest man in state high school football, I'm a good tackier, and excellent open field runner and I can snatch passes, I'm the only guy on the team tough enough to stay all through the Scott game. I’ll see you next year. Dana came from Dort and his size was a big handicap, because when he hit he just bounded off. Dana was a streak end when he broke away iround end and stuck up his chin the Flint stands started counting the score. Darrell Decker—Lineman. I'm a lineman of real ability. In the past the name “Decker” has meant much to High School athletes and I have no doubt but that in the future the name will gain even more significance. I am a good sturdy guard who cannot be fooled by cross- kicks nor charged out of play. I always get my man and get him hard. I will be back next year. Darrell is a sturdy type lineman. He is a de- termined worker and his efforts and spirit are of the best in him. “DECKER” “ARMY” Clare Armstrong—Guard. I’m dumb about catching jokes but when I do see them I laugh any way so I'm not out anything. I’m a guard or a tackle and I work very well in either position. I can’t be boxed in nor driven out on a play. I'm the most energetic man on the team and I’m absolutely never lazy. Sometimes my sore fingers slow me up but that’s only temporary. Clare is a nice football man. This was his first year out and with a year’s seasoning we look to the big blond for great accomplishments next year. “DOC” Bruliyn W ildangcr—Lineman. I m a rangy guard or center and I’m sometimes called back to kick. I'm better than any man I’ve played against. I m hard to get out of a plav and I m smart enough to out-guess any guard in the state. I m an ideal type for lineman as my long legs give me an enormous driving power. I will be back again. Doc is the big, good, valiant, type; he never gets mad. He can be used in the line and be called back to kick. With a little more experience “Doc” will be showing ’em. 122 Central’s fighting football squad journeyed to Highland Park and defeated the undefeated, unscored on, “Polar Bear” outfit 13—7. Incidentally the victory advanced the locals another step toward the State title and put them out of further considera- tion. Brazill, Wills, Davis played well while Capt. Dan Weiss played one of the great- est games of his career. p H. S.—42 Alpena—O Although the line, with the exception of “Fat” Betts center, was woefully weak. Central overwhelmed Alpena in a very fast game. Alpena was strong, especially the tackles, but Central’s strong backfield tore thru at will. Davis, Wills, Brazill and Capt. Weiss showed best. F. H. S._47 Fort Wayne (Ind.)—O Central mowed down the vaunted Fort Wayne (Ind.) team and won in a gallop. Central’s whole team played together like a college team. Young at tackle played a great game as did Davis, Capt. Weiss and Brazill. The ends did exceptionally well. F. H. S.—51 Monroe—O While coaches and scouts from other schools looked on, Central rambled through to a 51—0 victory over Monroe. Coach “Ole” Olson of Mt. Clemens pulled in his horns and quit claiming the “State Title.” Davis was the star of this contest. Etherton, Young, Capt. Weiss, Wills and Brazill shown out also. F. H. S. 88 Kalamazoo—0 Central won her first State football title by outplaying Kazoo in every part of the game. Although Central did not get started until the second half she showed her prowess by rolling up 26 points in this period. Remington (The Walter Camp of Mich, inter-scholastic football circles), refereed the contest and put two of Central’s players on his teams. F. H. S.—If) Lane Tech. (Chicago)—0 Central took on Lane Tech. (Chi.) on a “Sea of Mud.” We were out-weighed very much but not out fought. Had the field been dry we would have run up a much larger score. Every man in Central’s line played well, while Capt. Weiss and Davis playing their last games for Central starred in the back field. This was also the last time that Gilbert, Eatherton, Canning, Warren, Blake and Fraser appeared in Central football colors. F. h. S.— J Lapeer—O We started out the season taking on the veteran Lapeer team. Our green team was lucky to stay on top the way we played. The team played well at times but lacked the old fight. Capt. Weiss and Wills were the outstanding men in our back field while Betts and Young looked best in the line. Black was the star of the Lapeer outfit. F. H. S.—25 Imlay City—0 For our second start of the season Tmlay City journeyed over and was subdued 25—0. The team showed improvement over last w’eek’s game. The playing of Wills, Roy Weiss, Young and Capt. Weiss was the big feature of the game. F. H. S. 52 Fenton—O Not in three years has Central shown such spirit and unification as was shown in winning our third straight victory. Capt. Weiss was held in reserve until the second half because of training difficulties. He made his presence felt by tramping on Fenton players for four touchdowns. Davis, Wills and Young also played a wonderful game. F. H. S.—0 Alma—O Rain came in torrents and spoiled all chances of having a contest on this date— but the uniforms were saved. F. H. 8.—O Scott High—52 Central cancelled all relations with Scott High after this game. The vicious methods of football which Central encountered in Toledo on this day was the reason. Warren was bitten on the arm; Davis was slugged right in front of the umpire, not to say a thing about Capt. Weiss being put off the field. Fans say it was the “dirtiest” piece ot sportmanship ever shown in the country. F. H. S.—14 South Bend (Ind.) —18 Central next beat the highly touted South Benders in one of the best inter- regional football games ever played in Flint. It was united effort on the part of all of Central’s team that won. The playing of Davis, Brazil and Capt. Weiss was out- standing. F. H. S.—18 123 Highland Park—7 124 BASKET BALL GAMES The first game of the season showed us facing the Mutes minus all the regulars from last year with the exception of Dan Weiss. The other players on hand were Capt. Al. Bridgman, Russ Davis, Lloyd Brazill, Jim Barclay, Louis Hathaway, Fred Welch, Ralph Wills, and Herman Young. The game was very slow and listless owing to the short time we had been working out. F. H. S.—21 Ypsilanti—13 We next took a journey to Ypsi and subdued their aggregation in a very hard fought battle. The playing of Weiss and Brazill was the biggest factor in winning. F. H. S.—18 Jackson—10 The highly touted boys from the prison city made a trip over here expecting an easy victory. This was without a doubt one of the hardest fought battles in the state. Three long shots by Weiss aided us in tying the score. With only a minute to play “Slicker” Brazill dropped in a “long turn” and sewed up the game. F. H. S.—21 Lansing—20 Most fans called this the roughest basket-ball game ever played in the city. Weiss and Brazill were out on illness in this game but Wills and Welch taking their places played well as did Young and Davis. F. H. S.—17 Pontiac—-28 The Asylum City squad played the part of our host and handed us a beating merely through the ability of being much better shots. We had enough shots to win any game but could not connect. Young and Davis looked best in this contest. F. H. S.—17 Pt. Huron—21 The Tunnel City team invited us over and handed us a dubbing both ways. The game got entirely out of the .referees hands and was very rough. Davis and Barclay were the shining lights in this contest. F. H. 8.__34 Alma All Fresh.—18 The Alma College all-Fresh composed of former F. H. S. men and Saginaw H. S. men came to town looking for victory. We rather upset their notions by much better team piay. Weiss was the star of this contest making ten field goals besides doing some very good guarding. F. H. S. 7 Kalamazoo—33 Witn only one regular in, Kazoo came over with a wonderful team and gave us a good heating. The game was a trifle slow and listless on account of our broken line up. Weiss was high scorer with five field goals. pt jj. S._22 Highland Park—13 The Polar Bears were all set to take home the bacon before the game but lost all hopes when we played them off their feet. Our whole team played together like a machine in this game. The best thing the boys from Highland Park liked after the game was the first car home. F. H. S.__If) Ann Arbor—22 Our next little trip was over to Ann Arbor where we were beaten by an inferior team. This was due to the very small Gym in which we were asked to play. Young and Weiss starred in this contest. The whole team stayed over and attended the Mich.- Iowa game the next night. At Ml. Pleasant: We defeated Traverse City and Bay City thereby winning for the second time in the past two years the silver cup indicative of the Central Michigan Championship. At Ann Arbor: First Jackson defeated us in a rugged battle then even Holland trimmed us in handy fashion. 125 “F” MEN FOOTBALL Captain Dan Weiss .....

Central’s reserves got sweaters this year for the first time in the history of the school. They sure earned them. The reserves this year did not play any independent games but spent all their energy in preparing the first team for its big games. The following men are the reserves of 1923: James Barclay, back; Harper Glezen, end; Arthur Decker, lineman; Elmer MacAlpine, lineman; Franklin Rush, center; Brown, back and lineman; Coy Edgerton. back and lineman, and Roscoe Clark, lineman. “E” MEN BASKETBALL Captain Albert Bridgeman Dan Weiss Russell Davis Herman Young Lloyd Brazill James Barclay Ralph Wills Louis Hathaway Fred Welch Foy Davidson FOOTBALL SCHEDULE, 1924 September 29 Lapeer.................................... here October 6 Saginaw Arthur Hill ..................... there 13 Alma ................................... here “ 20 South Bend (Ind) ........................ there “ 27 Open .....................................

GLENN MAYER Director of Athletics. “What’s the line going to do?” “CHARGE.” “What’s the backfield going to do?” “INTERFERE.” Above are the words of “Coach” best known to the men on the football team and are the things that he gives as reasons for Central’s state champion- ship football team. Coach Mayer started the year with four letter men, and the greenest material the school has presented a coach in years and in two weeks he had under motion a state championship eleven. Playing the hardest schedule that any High School in Michigan faced, the team lost only one game, winning three out of four intersectional games and undisputed state championship. He has put into the students of the school a feeling of what spirit is and has started the school on the right track for future years. When the coach returned to the school a few years ago, after three years’ absence, he said he would stay until he developed a state championship eleven and this year he realized that accomplishment.. Coach Glenn Mayer and his brother. Ross Mayer, leave us at the close of this term to enter a private business. Good luck to you both. GWENDOLYN TREES. “Come on, girls, Fight ’em”---“Shoot”----“O—O—H”------following her proteges from whistle to whistle, shouting encouragement and keeping up spirits. Miss Trees brought out the first girl’s basketball team that would bring out a crowd on its own efforts. A most successful season, was the result of continual effort on the part of the coach. Though the girls did not win a state title they put out a fighting aggregation. Only one veteran will be lost to next year’s team. “ROSS” ROSS MAYER Assistant Coach. “Come on you first team guys, get ready for an awful beating because the “Tigers” are all set to run you ragged!” “Paddlin’ machine to first scrub who fumbles.” “Run, run, whasa matter, got a sore finger?” “Ross” built a fighting second team that went so well that they got letters and sweaters too, and more nights than one the fast team has felt the heavy power of the next opponents plays when the scrubs sneaked a long pass on a trick formation or skirted the ends in a fake cross back. As soon as football season was over with, “Ross” took up basketball and pro- duced a team of district champions. 127 128 GIRLS BASKET BALL TEAM GIRLS' BASKETBALL, 1923 This year’s varsity squad was one of the best in the state owing to the fine coaching of Miss Gwendolyn Trees, which could not be surpassed, and to the hearty co-operation of the large number of girls who turned out for practice three nights every week. Praise is also due the student body who helped support them. The season was started with Margaret O’Grady and Margaret Hoffman playing their usual positions as forwards but with the end of the first semester we lost them and Janet Barclay and Sylvia Delauter took their places. These girls worked wonder- fully well together, it being their first year of their ever playing with each other. Grace LaRonde, captain and center always got the jump and used splendid team work with her able partner, Norma Gardner, who played side center. Not enough can be said of the guards, Lois Rheingans and Gertrude LaRonde. Both were former members of Dort High School team, Lois having a regular position and Gertrude as sub. but this year found the girls playing much better which is shown by the fact that both made first team at Central. On the reserve squad were Louise Williams, Hazel Bond, Mina Coggins, Irene Kinley, and Ruth Milliman. Jan. 12—Flint, 38; Alumni, 8 The first game of the season was played with the Alumni girls. The game was much faster than the score suggests, the Alumni putting up a good fight and the Central girls showing good team work. Official—Waterman. Jan. 19—Flint, 21; Sag. Arthur Hill, 18 For the second game we played Sag. Arthur Hill at Saginaw. Margaret Hoffman was high scorer with Margaret O’Grady helping her. The game was fast and rough. Official—Bassett. Jan. 26—Flint, 41; Holly, 5 Flint girls easily defeated Holly although the line up had to be changed. Norma Gardner took Grace LaRonde’s place and Irene Kinley played side center. Margaret O’Gradv was high scorer. Official—Drake. Feb. 2—Flint, 30; Lapeer, 5 The first game played without the two Margarets were filled by Ruth Milliman and Sylvia Delauter in the first quarter. In the second quarter Hazel Bond entered in Ruth’s place and made seventeen points. Lapeer scored only on free throws owing to the fine guarding of Lois Rheingans and Gertrude LaRonde. Official—Waterman. Feb. 23—Flint, 15; Sag. Arthur Hill, 16 On Feb. 23 after a two weeks rest we played Saginaw Arthur Hill a return game and met our first defeat. Janet Barclay was back after a month’s illness. Official— Bassett. Mar. 2—Flint, 14; Fast Lansing, 37 March 2 we journeyed to East Lansing and met another defeat. East Lansing girls played a fast and terribly rough game. Most of our points were made of free throws. Official—B. Vaughn. Mar. 5—Flint, 44; Oxford, 4 In this game Central girls outclassed Oxford both in team work and in basket shooting. Officials—Trees and Woodruff. Mar. 9—Mint, 15; Saginaw Eastern, 18 March 9 recorded the third and last defeat of the season. We outclassed Saginaw in team work but fell down on basket shooting for some unknown reason. Official— McFarlane. Mar. 16—Flint, 22; Grand Blanc, 7 Flint girls came back into their own and defeated the county champions by the large score of 22—7. Official—Waterman. Mar. 23—Mint, 1� ; Holly, 2 For the last game of the season we played Holly at Holly and defeated them for the second time. All the girls will return next year to play except Sylvia Delauter who graduates this year. Officials—Davis and Trees. 129 130 BASEBALL At the time this book goes to press the baseball season has progressed most successfully. The team has won two games and lost none. The games played were with Oxford and Howell. Both were defeated by huge scores. Russell Davis, the letter man is leading the baseballers from the catching position. Dallas Dort is the leading hitter with an average of .750 in two games. To Marc Wilcox, our diminutive cheer leader, much credit is due. His splendid efforts aided greatly the spirit and enthusiasm new to the school. His work this year drew favorable comments from many sources, including Dr. Burton of the Univer- sity of Michigan. Foremost among the helpers of the Prospectus Staff is Miss Sprague. Her un- tiring efforts and willingness to serve have made the staff’s work much lighter. The members of the typewriting department, who have copied material, deserve much credit. Among other indivdiuals who have given freely of their time and effort are: Miss Janet Rollo, of the class of 1921; and Helen Ruth and Vepa Poquette, of the class of 1923. The late appointment of Frank Smith as advertising manager of the Prospectus, makes it necessary to here recognize him in his official capacity. He has done excel- lent work and much credit is due to him. 131 132 SOCIETY NEWS In the palace of Learning, in the little kingdom of Education all was excitement and happiness, for a new school year had been born. From far and wide gathered the sages, wisemen and jesters to offer their good wishes and entertainment in order to please or displease the new-born. Among those grave and important dignitaries who had gathered, were the six renowned prophets from Pleasure Valley. According to the custom of the age each guest offered to the new-born year some precious gift. As one by one the guests contributed their offering it became the turn of these wonderful prophets to speak. With a pompous air, and to the time of beautiful music, was ushered in the first prophet of Pleasure Valley. When in the presence of his august majesty, the new-born year, this first prophet announced in a voice as clear and resonant as a bell, ‘ To you, most wonderful year, I give on the eve of Dec. 15, 1922, a party most beautiful. On that date will gather your most dignified Seniors—the hosts and hostesses—with their guests including the Juniors and their honorable faculty. Most prominent in the exquisite ball-room will be the ‘1923’ in black and white, hanging at one end to welcome the guests. Next in prominence will be Ave Buck’s syncopated orchestra, seated in a most attractive bower of holly leaves and ribbon, offering music which one can hardly resist. By that time dancing will have come into its own place in the social world and the evening of which I speak will be spent in that manner. Charming Miss Elizabeth Towner will cause a lull in the festivities to display her unique toe dancing. William Dixon and “The Talented Four” will entertain the guests with various musicale numbers. The dancing and happiness will continue until 11:30 and at that point the palace chimes will ring out.” Having said the above, the first prophet disappeared. Almost immediately the second prophet was announced, and entered garbed in the attire of a Carnival King. “To you, dear New Year, I foretell a most unusual form of entertainment to be held on Nov. 7, 1922. The guests present will not only be school members, but all their friends will participate. Most striking will be the corridors of the building; candy, bake goods, ‘cider and sinkers.’ balloons and ice cream booths will fill every nook and corner. Your school’s talent will be displayed on the third floor of this ‘famed’ building in the form of ‘take offs,’ plays and musical numbers. The beauty of Flint High will be shown on the first floor by several young ladies in trotteur, tailleur and sport costumes, along with evening gowns, wraps and accessories, such as earrings, bags and gloves.” As the second speaker finished speaking, through the archway was seen a very large young man in a football suit carrying the “1923 Champion” football under his arm. As he entered he made a sweeping bow and addressed the New Year. “Your career, most honorable New Year, will be exceedingly brilliant, especially in athletics. So brilliant in fact, will it be. that your 1923 football team will be proclaimed cham- pions. In honor of your heroes you will hold a football banquet—at which not only school members will be present but several prominent citizens. The evening will be whiled away with speeches, songs and yells—and later with dancing.” 134 SOCIETY NEWS—Continued With another sweeping bow this third prophet disappeared and in his place stood a rather stern faced old gentleman who was carrying an enormous armful of books. In a rather slow coarse voice he drawled: “To you most wonderful New Year, I add my endowment of a most unusual party. Something that will never have been given before, namely, a reception by the faculty. During the early part of the evening Mr. Courter and Reverend Pengelly will entertain with amusing anecdotes of college life. Musical selections by Frieda Banks and a butterfly dance by Audrey Parker will also be well received. Most clever will be the way in which each one, to the sound of chimes, will be announced by Beatrice Barrett, in a very striking costume of yellow and black, with a clever little verse—composed by your noted Miss Seymour. Then per usual, dancing will follow the programme—but different from usual will be the semi- grand march conducted in such a way that everyone will meet everyone else.” As this wise old prophet finished speaking, the fifth prophet stepped forth and addressed the New Year thus: “My gift to you most noble New Year is a promise of a new plan to be adopted in your school. It is to be a dancing party, known to you as a ‘Hop,’ to be held every so often during the year. The first one will take place on Feb. 2, 1923, and will be a huge success. Dancing will begin in a hall most artistic in decoration and will continue until 11:30. The only interruption from danc- ing during the evening will be to allow clever little Jeanette Stevenson, Leah Dell Gray and Audrey Parker to give some musical selections.” As the fifth soothsayer bowed himself out, the sixth and last was announced. His prophecy was in form of a “revenge” by the Juniors on the Seniors. “It is to be held,” he stated, “in a ball room bedecked with arrowheads and colors of the two classes. Most unusual will be the programmes, with all the dances cleverly named. Throughout the evening everyone will be given several little favors. The most promi- nent feature of the evening will be the take-off on a Senior class meeting, given by some members of Junior class. This will probably end your brilliant social season for the year, with the exception of a party given in your honor by your alumni.” 135 136 Acthuties a 138 ARROWHEAD ‘‘The Arrowhead,” Flint High School’s semi-monthly newspaper has for the school year, 1922-23, successfully served its purpose as one of the mediums of unity beftwe n, the classes. At the beginning of the year Mr. Courter, in an interview, expressed his concep- tion of the aim of a high school paper to be as follows: The strengthening and center- ing of school interests, the furthering of worthy activities and the promoting of school spirit. It should be another factor contributing to school unity. In promoting these, “The Arrowhead” has also advanced itself, becoming a fixed and permanent organ for the expression of school opinion as well as school talent. The paper this year, as last, was under the faculty supervision of Miss Bretz and the staff was as follows: Managing Editor: Charles Wolcott Literary Editor: Esther Merrick Society Editor: Dela Snook News Editor: Alfred Beaudette Boys’ Sports Editor: Glen MacArthur Girls’ Sports Editor: Doris Dayton Art Editor: Henry Rollo Joke Editor: Malcolm MacLean Business Mgr.: Hazen Sills Circulation Mgr.: Darrel Decker Advertising Mgr.: Ralph Cuthbertson Reporters: Alice Callis, Austin Fleming, Dorothy Tellers, Elmer McAlpine. 139 ROS ROSS FRASER HELEN RUTH ARTHUR SHAW ESTHER MERRICK Speaker Vice-Speaker Corr. Secretary Recording Sec’y STUDENT COUNCIL Re-organizing for the third time, the Central High School Student Council has, for the past year, been very active. After remodeling the constitution so that there might be a classification of work and duties, the council started the activities of the year with a peppy mass meeting at the Court Street Church. The re-organization divides the Student Senate, which consists of two members from each of the four classes, into commissions, namely—the Finance, the Activities, the Publications and the General Order. The duties of these commissions may be recog- nized from their names. For every commission there is a senator who serves as chairman and another who assist him. Paul Cooley, who is at the head of the Finance commission, directed the recent Booster campaign. .Jack Demorest, as leader of the Activities commission, put on the various mass meetings and all the council parties. Arthur Shaw, leading the Publications, is, with his commission, responsible for the Student Hand-Book and for the advertising done by the council. Lawrence Pettibone and the General Order com- mission has put the Hall Guard system on an efficient working plan. Though the Council still needs much re-organization the Senate believes that the work this year has been progressive. 140 =3 THALIAN LITERARY SOCIETY The Thalian Honorary Literary Society, which is composed of honor students from the English department of the high school, has accomplished much in the regular meetings of this year under the leadership of Miss Owen. An interesting program was given at the annual Open Door meeting, held Tuesday evening, May first. At the initiation held in March, eight candidates were received into membership. The present officers are: President: Mildred Elwood. Vice-President: Lucille Dewar. Secretary: Marjorie Decher. Treasurer: Louise Williams. Assistant Treasurer: Pauline Powley. Corresponding Secretary: Dorothy Clifford. There are always two groups who participate in any enterprise. There are those who have had the task assigned to them as their especial duty. To them due honor and glory are given in proportion to the worth of their production. There are also those who, in a quiet and unobtrusive way, give their assistance and service. It is to the latter group that official recognition and thanks should be given. 141 CAMP FIRE GIRLS The OSA-WANA-MAKEE Camp Fire Group has done a considerable amount of work during the past year, all of which has proven very successful. These successes are due to the grandest and best of guardians, Miss Sophie Anderson. The present members of this group are: Grace Holsaple, Catherine Casey, Mildred Beamer, Pauline Haymond, Edythe Backus, Alice Callis, Jessie Richards, Mary Lamont, Helen Wetherald, Dorothy Eaton, Evelyn Clemens, Dawn Benschoten, Jean Casterlin and Florence Williams. THE CAMP FIRE GIRL S CREED I BELIEVE in the future; And I try to make my life A joy to myself and A pleasure to those about me. I realize the destiny within me. I try to find the beautiful in life, And where it is not, I create beauty. I feel my responsibility as a citizen of a great nation; I feel my glory as one of the mothers of the new generation Which with new eyes and steadier steps Will reach the high places that now Are but a purple haze on the horizon, I believe in the new womanhood Which combines the beauty of the old womanhood With citizenship and social consciousness. I know I am and hold within me the promise of the future. I realize my responsibility. I do not flinch or falter. I am a CAMP FIRE GIRL. 143 SENIOR HI-Y CLUB For a number of years the Senior Hi-Y has been a very active organization in the High School. There is no other organization that carries on a work just like the Hi-Y. It attempts to aid the boys of the school along vocational and religious lines; and also along lines that will aid in making the school an ideal High School. For a number of weeks the Hi-Y provided speakers who gave vocational talks to the students after which the students were given an opportunity to interview the speaker. In February the Senior Hi-Y held a re-organization meeting and under a new constitution Lewis C. Clifford succeeded Henry H. Rollo as president, Milton F. Petti- bone remained in office as vice-president, Neil VanDeusan became secretary and Darrel Decker became treasurer, both succeeding Francis Ballard. At the closing banquet of the year the accomplishments of the club were brought to mind showing that the club has had a very successful year. It is hoped that the Senior Hi-Y clubs of the future will make themselves and their standard of clean speech, clean athletics, clean living and clean scholarship felt more and more throughout the school. 144 JUNIOR HI-Y CLUB The Junior Hi-Y Club is an organization promoted by the Boys’ Division of the local Young Men’s Christian Association in co-operation with the Flint High School, membership of which is open to boy students of the Freshmen and Sophomore classes. The club opened its year’s activities with a Student Fellowship luncheon which was held on Wednesday noon, October 25th, at the Y. M. C. A. building. These lunch- eons have continued practically through the school year, the closing one taking place on May 16th. Local business and professional men formed the corps of speakers for these luncheons. The officers for the first semester of the school year were: First Semester William Ballenger Robert Hancock Leon Maxwell Dallas Dort President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Second Semester William Palmer Bennett Kearns Erie Bottoms Ralph Cuthbertson Eleven Sophomores were taken into the Senior Hi-Y as honorary members in order that they might get into things and be ready for work at the beginning of the next school year. Three educational trips were enjoyed by the club during the year, the first through Freeman Dairy Company, the second through the new High School with the architect explaining the various features, the third was an all day affair to Lansing where all places of interest in the capitol city were visited. The iast trip was taken on May 26th and closed the club’s activities for the year. 145 -3 PROS GIRLS OF THE TRIANGLE The Girls of the Triangle was organized this fall to take the place of the Girl Reserve organization for each of the upper classes, that is, the Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors. When the membership campaign closed there were two hundred and twenty- live members. This success was celebrated with a party at St. Paul’s parish. The next thing of a social nature was a hike. At Christmas time the girls filled Christmas stockings with candies and nuts for the Salvation Army to deliver to the poor. They also mended and dressed dolls for the Boy Scouts’ Christmas distributions. A Christmas party for members was given at the club house the Friday before Christmas. A convention of Y. W. C. A. clubs was held at Grand Rapids. The girls who represented the club were: Mary Margaret Guthrie, Margaret Lawlor, Florence Williams, Madelaine Parker and Irene Kinley, chaperoned by Miss Wolfe, Assist- ant Girls’ Secretary of the Y. W. C. A. A contest was held during spring vacation in which the girls had to buy, serve and cook three well-balanced meals a day for five days, afterwards writing an account of their experience and what they gained from it. The Girls of the Triangle joined the students who are taking the religious course in an early morning Easter service at Oak Grove, after which breakfast was served. The members are now eagerly loking forward to the opening of their camp at Long Lake in July. CABINE T MEMBERS OF THE HELEN STONE CLUB Tne Helen Stone Club is made up of ninth grade Girl Reserves. The club meets every Wednesday at 3:45 at the Girl’s Clubhouse Mrs. Barringer, Miss Clarice Win- chester and Miss Lehman, Girl Reserve directors, are the advisors for this group. Mrs. Barringer works with the social committee. Miss Winchester with the service com- mittee and Miss Lehman with the membership commttee. The officers of the club are: Harriet Lawler, president; Dorothy Miller, vice-president; Elmira Smith, secre- tary; Aline Conklin, treasurer; Elizabeth Day, chairman of social committee; Elizabeth Moore, chairman of service committee, and Fern Schoeppach, chairman of membership committee. During the spring months the Helen Stone girls have been enjoying a series of health meetings. The health ideas have been worked out in many clever ways, such as, special talks, gymnastic demonstrations, hikes, out-of-door games, and health playlets. 148 GIRL RESERVES The object of the Girl Reserve Movement is to provide or supplement those ideals and convictions which help a girl to live as a Christian of her age should and to aid her to put into practice in her community her standards of Christian living. It endeavors to give girls through normal, natural activities the habits, insights, and ideals which will make them responsible Christian women; capable and ready to help make America more true to its best hopes and traditions. The Girl Reserves, whose insignia is the Blue Triangle with the letters G. R. inscribed within, form a part of a national and an international movement for girls and women. The base of the Blue Triangle is Spirit, its two sides are Knowledge and Health. This means that the Blue Triangle girl is physically fit, is mentally and mor- ally trained. With these three Characteristics, the Blue Triangle girl need have no fear in undertaking the big adventure of life. The girl Reserve Code serves for them to express the meaning of the Blue Triangle. SLOGAN “To face life squarely” PURPOSE “To find and give the best” CODE “As a Girl Reserve I will be— Gracious in manner Impartial in judgment Ready for service Loyal to friends Reaching toward the best Earnest in purpose Seeing the beautiful Eager for knowledge Reverent to God Victorious over self Ever dependable Sincere at all times.” Any girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen may become a Girl Reserve. 149 150 LATIN CLUB After the very interesting work of last year, the Latin Club was again organized in September, 1922. With the help of Miss Lewis the club has completed another successful year. The object of this society is to learn more about Roman life and manners and become more intimately associated than class study permits, with many phases of the work. Lantern slides on Pompeii were shown at one of the meet- ings. In March we enjoyed a potluck supper and party in Samon's Hall. The meetings are held the first and third Wednesdays of the month at school. The officers for the past year were as follows: Consul: Ballard Blakemore. Secretary: Mildred Samons. Treasurer: Dorcas Mears. Under the guidance of Miss Lewis and with the earnest co-operation of all its members this club will inevitably prove a great asset to the school. All members of the Cicero and Virgil classes are eligible. The active members of the last year were: Ballard Blakemore Creta Blakeley Lucille Booth Lucille Dewar Mary Dewar Mildred El wood William Largent Hazel Lintz Dorcas Mears Olive Mears Dorothy Morgan Florence Poole Henrietta Banney Irene Richard Mildred Samons Beatrice Shephard Helen Wetherald Katherine Woodward Neil Van Dusen Sherwood Russell Erma Talcott Lewis Bloomberg AYALEHU ADAHE CAMPFIRE GIRLS 152 HONORARY MATHEMATICS CLUB The Honorary Mathematics Club of Flint High School was organized toward the middle of the school year 1921-1922. The membership includes ten students from each of the three upper classes, selected on the basis of a minimum scholarship of E and general desirability with respect to personality and the spirit of co-operation. Its purposes are to promote an interest in mathematics and good fellowship among the members and to develop their artistic and social faculties; therefore the bi-weekly meetings are not exclusively devoted to mathematical subjects, but include oppor- tunity for self-expression and social recreation.

The membership this year reached a high- water mark of thirty-eight. , , The outside speakers this year were Mr. C. V. Courter, of the High School, ana Mr. E. E. Galley, supervisor of Agricultural Education for Michigan. Programs by students were as follows: October 11, Slides of International Harvester Company; May 3, slide pictures of Barrett Chemical Company. The social events were a weiner roast, a Christmas party, a house party, a spring party, the annual trip to Michigan Agricultural College, and an outdoor party. The officers for the year are: President: Howard Piper Vice-President: Edmund Munch Secretary: Martha McCullon Treasurer: Charles Baker Faculty Advisor: Mr. Voorhorst 155 DRAMATIC CLUB The Dramatic Club was organized four years ago bv Beth Olds Tyler director of Public Speaking in the Flint High School. The purpose of the club is to promote a friendly and loyal feeling in the school to promote public speaking in the High School, and entertain the strangers who visit the institution. The club was started with fifteen charter members, and now comprises an active membership of fifty. It has been and still is an active organization. The club plans three annual activities: a play, a banquet, and an outing. The members are students of Public Speaking exclusively. The officers for 1922-3 were: President—Bessie Sickles. Vice-President—Robert MacRae. Secretary—Mildred Samons. Treasurer—Clare Utley. Corresponding Secretary—Pauline Haymond. The club is under the sponsorship of Beth Olds Tyler. The club has four working committees with chairmen as follows- Reception Committee—Ralph Brown Eats Committee—Elizabeth Towner. Flower Committee—Mary Shroyer. Decoration—Leon Maxwell. 156 THE GIRLS' GLEE GLUB The Girls’ Glee Club was organized under the supervision of Mr. W. W. Norton, September 23, 1923. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President: Ruth Maxwell. Vice-President: Mary Ella Decker. Secretary-Treasurer: Geraldine Roat. Librarian: Fern McCue. Assistant Librarian: Margaret Sanford. Business Manager: Florence Cook. The girls made several appearances during the year, among which were: Durant School in a musical memory contest program, Baptist Church, the Masonic Temple, at the May Festival and at the Graduating Exercises. Two parties were enjoyed during the year. One a Halloween party and the other one in May, when the Girl’s Glee Club entertained the Boy’s Glee Club. 157 THE BOYS' GLEE CLUB The Senior Boy’s Glee Club of 1922 was the first organization of its kind at Flint High School. There have been many Girl’s Glee Clubs, but a glee club of male voices was a decidedly new feature. The club was directed by Mr. William W. Norton who was responsible for its formation. As soon as the boys were getting along fine they broke up. The club was unsuccessful in as much as the membership was limited to Seniors. This year the club was put on an equality basis, and consequentlv the club was of sufficient size and with a right balance of parts; hence when one class graduates there are still some “old men” in the club in this way insuring a stability impossible with the other club. The club was extremely popular whenever and wherever it sang. The club entertained the student body at several mass meetings. The club has also filled engagements with different noon-day luncheon clubs. The club has assisted in church services in a very creditable manner. In short the club has been a pleasure to the fellows and a very pleasing form of entertainment to its audience. The personnel of the club is as follows: First Tenors. Lawrence Pettibone Marion Prosser Lloyd Lundy Charles Alexander Harold Holland William Hopkins Edwin Cowdrey First Basses. Reginald Casey John Varty Leon Maxwell Kenneth Chatters Arthur Decker Dale Delong Fmanuel Greenlich Percy Vreeland Elmer Wilson Second Tenors. Robert Ellis Edward Kreiger Melvin Pike Bernard Dickstein Milton Pettibone Burton Daugherty Elred Clark Gerald Greenlich Second Basses.

Pleasant May 24, 25, 1J23, by a quartette which was selected in a previous elimination contest at rehearsals. The quartette is as follows: Lawrence Pettibone, Robert Ellis Reginald Casey and Lloyd Gambill. 158 DEBATING Debating has always been an activity in Flint High School that has been looked forward to with eagerness by the students and has been unusually successful during recent years with Beth Olds Tyler, director of Public Speaking in Flint High School, as coach and manager. The question for this season was: Resolved, that the United States and Canada should jointly construct the waterway from the Great Lakes to the Atlantic Ocean via the St. Lawrence, as proposed in the report of the International Joint Commission, submitted to Congress, January, 1922. In the fall of 1922, two teams were chosen, a negative and affirmative. The first debate was scheduled for December eighth, with Pontiac, Flint unholding the negative. Because of a sudden death in Lawrence Marien’s family, the debate was postponed by the State Manager, Carl G. Brandt. The second contest was held at Saginaw, January twelfth, our negative team debating Saginaw Eastern. Because of a second death in Lawrence Marien’s family, the personnel of the team was changed and those debating were: Austin Fleming, Robert MacRae, and Mildred Samons. At Saginaw we met a veteran team and were defeated Flint upheld the affirmative, February second, in our third debate with Port Huron. The decision was two to one in favor of Flint. Those debating were Kenneth Tavlor, Clayton Tallman, and Mildred Samons. The fourth contest was held February nineteenth, our team debating on the affirmative with Owosso and at that place. The decision was two to one in favor of Owosso. Those representing Flint were Kenneth Taylor, Clayton Tallman, and Mildred Samons. Both affirmative and negative teams were assisted with valuable English in- struction bv teachers of the English department of the High School. ORATORY In oratory and declamation, during the past year, Central High School has been very well represented. In the local contest, Austin Fleming took first place in oratory, and Clayton Tallman won first honors in declamation. At the sub-district contest at St. Clair, this pair again took first place. In the district contest at Flint, they received second places respectively in oratory and decla- mation. Austin Fleming’s oration was on “The New Crusade.’’ 159 F. H. S. ORCHESTRA While the original date is an uncertainty, the history of the high school orchestra really started in 1917 when Mr. Paul Field organized an orchestra of fourteen pieces. In 1918 the orchestra did not exist but in 1919 Mr. Oscar Hatch Hawly started an or- ganization but was obliged to leave it under the control of Mr. Raymond Cooke, a local musician, when Mr. Hawley was called from the city. In 1921 Mr. Wm. Norton took over high school music and organized a thirty piece symphony orchestra which placed second in the state orchestral tournament at Mt. Pleasant after a successful year of concerts. During the past year the orchestra has had some fifty-six members who have played in concerts in various parts of the state with great success. The orchestra attended the tournament at Mt. Pleasant on May 25th, 1923. TOURNAMENT Tournament at Mt. Pleasant, on May 25. Flint Central High School, for the first time, won the state orchestral championship. Gwendolyn Bennett, contralto soloist, won first place, while Berdith Hall so- prano, placed second, and Reginald Casey, baritone, also got second prize. CLASS SING Sophomores, Class of ’25, won Central High’s first ir.terclass sing. Marc Wilcox was the caregus of the winning class. lbu Lou C. Clifford: “Did you hear that D. Weiss has a new baby up at his house?” H. Palmer: “What is it?” C. C.: “A flapper.” D. McCorkle: (Looking at F. George’s Ford.) “How many will she hold?” F. George: “Well, she generally holds four, but seven can get along if they are real well acquainted.” Neighbor to Mrs. Smith: I was so sorry to hear that your boy Bob was taken to the reformatory, Mrs. Smith. Mrs. Smith: Yes, it was a shame. And he was such a good boy, too. He always brought everything home to his dear old mother. Want Any Help? C. Jackson: “I wish that the papers would quit writing about these mountain moonshiners.” B. Gundry: “Why?” C. Jackson: “Because I wanted Paul to take me to the seashore this summer.” Tough! ! R. Weiss: “What makes you think Vernie doesn’t like you?” D. Leslie: “She told me she thought there was a fool in every family.” R. W.: “Well, what of that?” D. L.: “I’d just gotten through a moment before telling her that I was an only child.” “Love me, love my dog,” quoth K. Gundry. “After proposing to her making love to the dog will be easy,” thought the boy from Yale—but he did not say it! Mr. Townsend: “What is the common conductor of electricity?” S. Russell: “Why, er—er—??” Mr. Townsend: “Correct. Now what is the unit of measurement of electric- ity V’ S. Russell: “The what, sir?” Mr. Townsend: “Correct again, very good.” 161 GRI NS—Continued C. K. Crasper: “Hey, Bill, how many chops did we have in the ice box last night?” Bill Koepke: “Two, of course.” C. K. Crapser: Well, the bloomin’ dog has got away with yours.” Bark to Ann Arbor Miss Kirkpatrick: ‘‘What kind of a fellow is he anyway?” Miss Stuefer: ‘‘I don’t know; I’ve only been engaged to him since last evening.” Not Exact C. K. Crapsor: ‘‘And where did you see him milking the cow?” D. Dort: ‘‘A little past the center, C. K.” The Little Game C. Rosenthal: ‘ Covitz, you want to play a game of checkers?” L. Covitz: “Chess.” Peggy Ballinger says she isn’t going sailing with Paul Lienay any more; he hugs the shore too much. Pocahontas In the roaming, Oh, my darling, When the lights are dim and low. That your face is powder painted How am I, Sweetheart, to know? Twice tonight I’ve used a clothes brush But, Sweetheart, I must confess This tuxedo has been rented Love me more and powder less. “A rag, a bone, a hank of hair” Is woman, says the poet. Shorten “glad rags” and bob the hair That’s woman as we know it. Jever hear of Paul Revere, The guy who warned a town? He didn’t have much on co-eds here For spreading news around. Dog Buckles Down I had a pup His name was Menthol He saw my galoshes And mentholatum. Beware There was a Man Who died from drinking Beer From an old Tomato Can. Now they say That Beer can’t kill a Man But an old Tomato Can. 162 GRI NS—Continued Confidentially Speaking I came here a little Freshman Thinking an awful lot o’ Profs But everything I’ve learned so far I’ve learned from the worldly Sofs. Apologies to B. Koepke From out of the dim and into the glare Strove a frosh, dog dirty, and not fit to bare. His clothes were tattered, his face was torn, He hadn’t slept for many a morn. “O Ho! my Frosh,” a sophomore cried. “You look as though you’ve lived and died. Pray tell me your tale—an’ it’s sad, I vow.” The Frosh was seated when he'd made his bow. “Boys,” he cried, ‘‘I’ve been a young fool. I've sunk and sunk into Kelly Pool. I’ve squandered my ’lowance on rolls and toast. I’ve lost my best clothes because of a boast.” His tale was told and tears were shed. We gave him a bath and tucked him in bed. Frosh, do profit by your fellowman’s plight. Keep away from Green River and study at night. Things Are Not Always What They Seem Attendant: ‘‘Me man, don’t you see that ‘no smoking’ sign?” B. Koepke: ‘‘Well, I’m not smoking.” Attendant: “But you have a pipe in your mouth.” B. Koepke: ‘‘Sure, and I’ve shoes on me feet, but I’m not walking.” Mr. Vorhorst: Why does a chicken lay an egg? City Student: Because if she dropped it it might break. L. Brazill: “Is this cup sanitary?” R. Wills: “Must be, everybody uses it.” M. Wilcox: “Please!” M. Wilcox: “Ah, come on—be a sport.” Feminine Voice: “Nope.” M. Wilcox: “Aw, please . . . just this once?” Feminine Voice: “Positively NO!!” M. Wilcox: “Aw, gee, Mom, all the other fellows are gonna wear longies ’n I always have to look like a kid.” “The Truth—? ?” Little girl, little girl, where have you been? I’ve been to a girls’ school, some culture to win. Little girl, little girl, what did you there? I smoked cigarettes and cut off my hair. 163 GR INS—Continued Time Needed “Oh, Sara dear, her mother said, “That man had better go.” “Oh, mother dear, please not just yet— He works so doggone slow.” Dismayed He took her out for an ice cream treat, His pretty, blue-eyed Sal, But fainted when he read the sign, “Cream, ninety cents a gal.” Out o’ Gas In days of old, a knight would take A horse and suit of tin, And with a ten-foot pole would try His lady’s love to win. But now he takes a bus of tin And fills her up with gas, And miles and miles away from town He woos his winsome lass. Some Tut Stuff An ancient legend credits Tut with being the inventor of the napkin. A papyrus roll mentions that the King discovered that the soup splashed on his pants whenever he dropped his crackers in, so he was forced to use a camel hide for protection. We wonder if King Tut’s first wife ever waited up for him when he came home late? “And where have you been tonight, Tut?” “Oh, I just dropped in at the Cleopatra club to see the boys.” Sarcastically Speaking Her face was upturned Her head held back with pride Her eyes shone with celestial splendor Upturned towards the vales of Avalon, As though beseeching justice. Her cheeks like roses crowned with dew. Her delicate mouth was moving, Giving to her features an expression of anguish, Her face revealed soul-searing emotion. She was gargling. Toot Toot Poison King Tut must have been a boy king, according to the explorers, they have found no Colgate’s Rapid Shave or Gillette. Ivy Thus far 164 165 GRINS—Continued There is ample proof that he was efficient, however. Witness the Kumapart buttons and the elastic ties that have been unearthed without number. One of the interesting machines found in the second chamber is a two-speed, reversible malted-milk mixer. This was discovered beside an apparatus for powdering lump sugar. It is fortunate that King Tut’s full name in no way resembles the name of a popular cigarette—think of the millions saved in signboard advertising. Tut Tut Ford vs. Tut An occulist claims that the soul of King Tut is now in the body of Henry Ford. There is now no more cause to wonder how the King built pyramids with cheap labor and made them hold together through the ages. Comparing the actual endurance of a Ford and a pyramid would be absurd as nobody has as yet lived long enough to find out the actual time limit on either. Pardon Robert Thou haughty, stingy bobbed hair! Thou wadna deign methinks to share Frae rich store o’ smiles sae fair Just ane w’ me. I loth wad waste a gift sae rare That thou wad gie. I dinna ken but that the Grail Wadna a fairer quest avail Than een like heather i’ th’ dale. Just two wee winks Wad haud me mair than barred jail Or iron links. Mair precious than auld gold thy lips! How well they’d gie a kiss that dips Deep down into the soul and slips A Lethean bliss O’er every mon, apocolypse Of Love’s abyss. Thy smiles, thy kissed kept frae me! In sooth then I a thief maun be; And if I’m caught I will them gie Right gladly back To prove that generosity I dinna lack. 166 GRINS—Continued Outdoor Sports O. Townsend: “Not many women care much for outdoor sports, do they?” H. Allman: “Oh, I don’t know. Did you ever see one who did not like to hunt bargains, fish for compliments, be in the swim, play a love game, make a hit with her clothier---” O. Townsend: “Sure enough! I wras wrong.” Time Tells A. Buck: “Don’t most plants thrive best in the sun, Miss Dietrich?” M. Dietrich: “To be sure they do.” A. Buck: “This paper says moonshine is the right stimulant for wild oats.” “When Mr. Humphry Was in the Army” The recruit was weighed down with orders by Sergeant-Major Humphrey. He was told to be sure and turn out the guard for any unusual occurence. So at 10 p. m. as the sergeant-major came smartly through the gate, the recruit turned out the guard. When the sulphurous atmosphere had cleared a little and the recruit was allowed to speak, he reported his reason for turning out the guard. “Unusual occurence,” he said, “sergeant-major in barracks at 10 p. m., sober.” Talking Not. Entertaining Mrs. Pomeroy: “Are you entertaining ‘Babe.’” L. Pomeroy: “No, we’re just talking.” A theatrical company after a dreary and unsuccessful tour arrived in a small town in South America. That night, though there was no general uprising of the audience, there was enough hand-clapping to arouse the dejected spirits of the actors. The leading man stepped to the foot-lights after the first act and bowed pro- foundly. Still the clapping continued. When he went behind the scenes, he saw an Irish stagehand laughing heartily. “Well, what do you think of that?” asked the actor throwing out his chest. “What d’ye mean?” “Why the hand-clapping out there.” “D’ye call that applause? Why, that’s the audience killing mosquitoes.” Impertinence The Mother Terrible: “If I wasn’t here the young man would kiss you.” E. Towner (horrified): “You impertinent Mother! Go away this instant.” Religion of Today Mr. Russell: “I am happy to see all these shining faces before me this morning.” (Sudden application of thirty-seven powder puffs.) B. Wilson: “Dearest, I must marry you.” M. Mitchel: “But have you seen Father?” B. Wilson: “Often, Honey, but I love you just the same.” Apologies to B. Gilbert Was on the street The other day And I saw A girl and She saw me, and She dropped her purse, I hurried after, But I fooled her— I kept the purse. APOLOGIES TO FAIR SEX On the Street Women wear knickerbockers.” “True.” “And mannish hats.” “Never mind. You can still distinguish ’em by their earrings. 168 169 New Quarters D. Weiss: Where did you sleep last night? I heard there wasn’t a room to be had in town?” W. Williams: “Easy. I went to a public lecture on quadratic equations.” T. French: “It’s raining cats and dogs outside.” M. Mitchell: “Yes, isn’t this beastly weather.” Quite So Visitor: “Say, sonny, how can I get to the Y. M. C. A. from here?” H. Palmer: “Do you have a car?” Visitor: “No, I don’t.” H. P.: “Well, I guess you’ll have to walk.” Laugh at This One P. Lienau: “I didn’t understand that aeroplane joke. It went over my head.” R. Fraser: “Well, let me tell you the one about the needle, and perhaps you will see the point.” “Room I , Scandal” D. McCorkell: Have you heard the latest scandal in Hollywood? B. Gundrv: No. What is it? D. Me.: Jackie Coogan has a cold sore. Do you know where he got it? B. G.: No. Where? D. Me.: From Helen Ruth. Do you know where she got hers? B. G.: No. Where? D. Me.: From Bull Montana. A Hip Flapper J. Shaw: “What’s your favorite hymn?” M. Barrett: “I’ve got three or four,” she answered promptly, “but I think I like Drury the best.” A Season Worker Miss Rigby: What were you. my poor man, before you came to this penniless condition? O. Townsend: I’m really a season worker, ma’am. I smoke glasses for solar eclipses. Then Pa Cuffed Him J. Demorest: “Pa, are matches troubled with the itch?” asked J. Demorest Mr. Demorest: “Say, what the thunder!” J. Demorest: “Well, people are always scratching them,” replied Jack. Across the Room 0. Wolcott: What would you say if I were to throw a kiss at you? B. Gundry: I’d say you were the laziest man I ever met. For a Practical Test Mr. Courter: You told your class that a family of four could live well on $718 a year. Are you sure of that? Mr. Russell: Absolutely. Reliable statistics to prove it. Mr. Courter: I’m glad to hear it, because we are cutting your salarv 40 per cent for the coming year. Just a Common Ailment F. George: “Doctor, if there is anything the matter with me don’t frighten me by giving it a long, scientific name. Just say what it is in plain English.” Doctor: “Well, sir, to be frank, you’re just plain lazy.” F. George: “Thank you. doctor. Now. tell me the scientific name for it. I shall have to tell my teacher what is the matter with me.” 170 171 GRIN S—Corxt i n tied Just Like Grandad Mr. Valentine: “That is rather an extreme gown Miss Wiggins is wearing. Do you notice how it is held up by a single strap over one shoulder?” Mr. Pratt: “Yes, and it reminds me of old times. I knew her grandfather when he had but one suspender and wore it just the same way.” ‘Til Take Pie C. Jackson: The bootlegger isn't as genial as the old bartender. P. Lienau: There’s a reason. It would never do for him to greet you with, “Name your poison.” Why He Was Curious Two dusky devotees of the Goddess of Chance became involved in an alterca- tion over a crap game. “Look heah, chile,” said one, “Yo’ trifle wid me an dere’ll be a brass ban’ playin’ ahead of yo’ cyar, wif yo’ de onliest one not enjoyin’ de music.” “Say yo’ so, li’l boy. Now I axes yo’ is yo’ got any conspicuous an’ prominent birfmarks, or odder distinguishin’ means of ’dentification?” “Who, me? Nossuh, Ah’s a lamb wifout spot or blemish. Why is yo’ curious?” “Only dis. Ise wonderin’ how, ’thout dem, is yo’ mammy gwine reckernize yo’ remains when dey sweeps de pieces up in one li’l plate.” Sheriff Do Your Duty “---1 was seized with horror. The car was tearing down the street behind the unconscious lad. I called him Elsie-------” (Many questioning sounds and looks.) “I called him Elsie be run over.” Why? When? Where? (Enter the villain with girl.) “Can I get a room and bath?” “We can give you a room, sir, but the bath tub leaks terribly.” “Where is the barber shop?” “It’s just closing, sir.” “Can I make it if I run?” “If you do it will be a close shave.” (Sobbing is heard from the girl.) “Please let me go, I love Robert, not you. “You are the banana peel on the threshold of my happiness.” A step is heard outside and Robert steps inside. Both men stand facing each other and reach for their revolvers. Robert, being an artist wins in the draw, aims for the villain’s heart and shoots him in the excitement. The girl rushes over to him, falls in his arms, and whispers passionately, “I love you, you great big handsome thing.” (Cue for song, “We’ll build a nest for two, with additional shingles ?u the back yard.”) Curtain. ‘Love is a cocktail to the average man. Marriage is the sensation he ex- periences after his twentieth drink.” 172 GRI NS—Cont inued “Drop me a line soon sez he as he fell overboard. “Ring Off” cried the hold-up man to Allman’s fiancee. “I took my girl to the movies last night to see ‘The Woman Pays,’ and she went up and bought two tickets.—Nice girl. “Throw up your hands,” said the poker player as he laid down a royal flush. “Why do you call your infant son Bill?” “He came on the first of the month and is getting bigger all the time.” At Beast “Leave me with a smile,” murmured the victim as the yegg frisked his clothes.” Speaking of “Boners” The other night I was sitting In the parlor With my girl And Her small brother, When suddenly The lights went out! And at once I slipped The Kid A two-bit piece. And he left the room As I expected But The little nut Went Right down To the cellar And Dropped the coin In the Meter! I THANK YOU. A Kind Man Please don’t take my watch—it’s a keepsake. Hold-up Man: A dollar watch a keepsake? Yes; the last hold-up man I met let me keep it. Mr. Allman: “What do you think of Political Parties?” S. Russell: “Dunno. Never attended any of them.” Couldn’t something be done to eliminate the noon-eyed Lovers who insist on sharing all their tender love secrets with any unfortunate who happens to be handy? 173 GRINS—Continued The goof in my Spanish class assures me in most ardent and poetic language that his girl is a divine creature of exquisite charm and beauty. The Romeo in my Math class swears on a stack of Bibles 37 miles high that his girl gave beauty tips to Venus. And so it goes Only more so. And then some. It might be very interesting and all that but I don’t happen to have a girl so I can’t appreciate it. Although if some fair co-ed is looking for— Well I guess. You bet. B. Barrett: “A kiss is the language of love.” J. Shaw: “Well, for goodness sake say something.” “Sheik” Buck: “Goin’ to the ball tonight?” “Rajah” Leslie: “Sure, how about tradin’ a dancer?” D. Snook: “Have you any hose that won’t bag at the knees?” M. Mitchel (re-loading her gum): “Garden accessories two aisles to the left.” L. Wendland: “Don’t you think by wearing these knickers we girls are show- ing our sensibleness?” P. Clement: “Well, it all depends on the girl wearing them.” H. Ruth: “You have a pretty good line, haven’t you?” T. George. es, A. G. Spalding used to pay me $25 a week to string tennis racquets.” M. Wilcox: “What is your idea of a clean sport?” H.

Moore: He has a bright foundation, his brains are in his feet. Dear Miss D.: I am very poor, I can’t afford to pay the fare to town on the ferry. To walk around by the railroad bridge wears out a terriffic amount of shoe leather. What should I do? F. Smith. Dear Smith: Buy a postage stamp, stick it on your nose, write your name and address on your teeth, and pretend you’re a letter; then quietly sneak in the mail-bag. You will find that by this method you can get across the river and back for only two cents, and also get carried up the hill. Dear Miss D.: Which is the easiest way to get my time off? M. Wilcox. Dear Mark: Serve it. Most esteemed Miss D.: My brother Dan snores like blazes; what should I do? R. Weiss. Dear R.: Find out who is the worst snorer in your vicinity, ask him to move down with you and then let the resulting duet drown each other out. Name 'Em Boy J. Hawkens: “Yessuh, I names all my children after flowers. Over there is Rose, yonder is Petunia and there is Geranium.” Mr. Valentine: “What is that one’s name?” J. Hawkens: “Why, we call her Artificial.” What Can One Expect? Fresh Wilcox: “Surveying a little?” F. Smith: “No, surveying a lot.” P. Cooley: “Thank you.

Clifford: “Yes, but there were only about ten of them then.” Pretty Hot Two cases of temperature above 110 degrees! Maybe it’s just some early cases of Spring Fever? Out of School Lessons Philosophy is a well-known vehicle of useless fragments. To see stars is a privilege granted folks who fool with mules. Love comes as often as a girl changes her mind.

GILLESPIE COMPANY Insurance Insurance today is the protec- tion large business or small business demands as the only means available in making pro- visions against loss, in creating a quick adjustment of their business conditions and a forti- tude to their creditors against failure. Young man, young woman, you will soon be invested with re- sponsibilities in the business world. Your greatest asset will be your credit. This you must protect and be ex- tremely jealous of it. Good business sense will tell you to fortify yourself against the unfortunate hazards of life. We make it a specialty to assist any person, firm or corporation in selecting the kinds of insurance protection they need in order to protect them against these hazards. It may be life insurance, fire insurance, automobile insur- ance or any of the many other kinds of insurance which coincides very closely with their business success. We have been constantly selecting companies to rep- resent since we organized in 1902 to fulfill the needs of our many clients and a guarantee to them against failure. We have given the public service in the past and our growth in business bespeaks our successful efforts. Beware of the hit-and-miss business propositions, but con- sider well those presented to you from firms in this or any other community, who have al- ready made a success. Look to them for advice, for they are always more than glad to co- operate with you and their ad- vice may spell Success for you. We are prepared to give service 901-2-3-4 F. P.

Consider the long interval between the acorn and the oak, then see whether the prerequisite —stick-to-it-iveness—is lacking in your progress. Ex- perience tells us that the confidence of life long friends cannot be won in a few short hours. Is it not true that stick-to-it-iveness is the ballast of business — the secret of success? We trust that this essential may increasingly develop in you. A. M. DAVISON COMPANY Clothiers Irei e Richard: I sent some jokes to you for the annual. Did you carry out any of my ideas?
