The teacher gets a new group of children each year. 1 his group is turned over to the teacher with the utmost confidence. In many cases the parent does not re- alize what the school is able to do for the child. The child comes to the school as a growing mass of energy ready to burst forth in any activity which is offered. If a real program is set up in which there is freedom and social environment the child will just naturally grow so as to satisfy both parent and teacher. The child of today must be recognized as a rare individual because he comes into the world when such great progress has been made that the teaching force has had no chance to make adjust- ments. People do not live and think as they did twenty years ago. The teacher must be ready to grasp the many social changes as they appear. The rapid change almost forces a change in the teacher so as to meet the new child. These changes of course do not change the original child nature but they do make very rapid changes in the environment. This causes the child to react in a different way. The teacher must always be young in his way of thinking. Of all persons the teacher must keep his mind youthful when the time comes for accepting changes in our social and physical environment. If the teacher does not recognize and accept these changes he will cease to function as a leader of chil- dren because they will not be stim- ulated by one who has not kept up to date in his thinking. 2uCtL ax U ADMINISTRATION  12 « BUTLER LAUGHLIN = ADMINISTRATION  13 « HAZEL LEIGH STILLMAN Every well-regulated school must have, as a matter of economy, a central office whose function it is to work out organization and ad- ministration plans which will best serve the whole school. As much of the daily happiness and success of both faculty and students is de- pendent on these plans, it is of prime importance that they be the result of careful analysis. You all know from experience that no per- fect plan has been evolved, yet its attainment is the goal of all admin- istration. Knowing that you, the members of the graduating class, have been genuinely co-operative in all mat- ters affecting the general welfare of this school, I am conhdcnt that you will carry forward with you into your new work a broad vision of the function of administration which will make vou worthy mem- bers of your school community, and highly respected professional co-workers. ADMINISTRATION  14 « EMMA FLEER MULLER Just what is it that you are striv- ing for in these many contacts that you make during these years of preparation for one of the greatest responsibihties that Hfe holds for you? Is it not, to not only acquire material to impart to those whose lives you will have the privilege to help mould, but also to gain an un- derstanding of the human being and to treat each individual and his reactions to a situation with this in mind, furthermore to try to help him to meet his problems straightforwardly, and to have him feel that having known you has en- riched his life? I hope, graduating seniors, that with this consciousness you will have the experience that the chil- dren whom vou will teach will stimulate you to produce greater results than those of which you considered yourself capable. ADMINISTRATION  15 « MR. ROBERTS MR. HATFIF.LD MISS McKAY MISS GAVIN MISS CABELL ENGLISH DEPARTMENT For twenty-five years the fun- damental social view of education, most commonly attributed to John Dewey, has been the guiding force in the activities in the English De- partment. The members of the department exhibit an interesting and fortu- nate diversity, both in temper- aments and special aptitudes. This is fortunate in a department which must not only teach composition, literature, dramatics, creative writ- ing, children ' s literature, and methods in elementary school com- position and reading, but must also direct an unusual proportion of the extra curricular activities of the school. Besides those in the picture there are in the department, Miss Louie Deupree, Miss Louise M. Jacobs, and Miss Sophia Camenisch. Dur- ing Miss Camenisch ' s sabbatical leave this year we have had two excellent substitutes: Miss Hor- tense Fox, now assigned to Crane College, and Miss McKay. The Penmanship Department aims to equip prospective teachers with the knowledge and skill nec- essary in the teaching of handwrit- ing. This year our students have taken an active part in experiment- al and research work that is being done in several elementary schools. The instructor is Mrs. Julia McNamee. FACULTY 16 MR. SHIDELtR MISS BLOUNT MRS. PARSONS SCIENCE DEPARTMENT The past year has been an event- ful one for the Science Depart- ment. Through the cooperation of the Board of Education and the pubhshers of Compton ' s Pictured Encyclopedia, we have broadcast science talks each Wednesday morning over Station WMAQ to students in the elementary and junior high schools of the city. These were given formerly by Dr. Grant Smith and more recently by Dr. Beals French. Especially note- worthy have been the numerous publications by members of our science staff. Most of these ap- peared in the Chicago Schools Journal and consisted chiefly of courses of study, digests of articles selected from current educational literature, and book reviews. Thus, for example. Dr. John H. Whitten brought together a large and com- prehensive selection of materials and activities for science in the ele- mentary schools. These appeared grade by grade in the Schools Jour- nal, beginning with October, 1930. Modern microscopes, kymo- graphs, inductoria, botanical charts, etc., have been ordered. A new system of ventilation has been installed in the Botany Building. And, very recently, it has been ru- mored that plans have been ap- proved for an entirely new Chemi- cal Laboratory. FACULTY  17 MR. McCLAlN MR. THOREN MR. MORROW MR. GEILFN MR. FRKNCH MISS DOYl I MISS HUTCHISON GRAPHIC ARTS DEPARTMENT Art has had a tine tradition in the Chicago Normal College dat- ing back to the days of Colonel Parker. It has always been recog- nized as an essential part of the stu- dents ' training, not only for the purpose of preparing them to teach, but also as a necessary life interest, and special emphasis has been given to applying their art knowledge to the problems of daily life. INDUSTRIAL ARTS DEPARTMENT Our activity in the held of teacher training is ever increasing, and we arc endeavoring to more eft ' ectiveh ' fit ourselves to the task of training efficient teachers of in- dustrial education and handwork. The industrial activity in our schools is destined to level off differences which occur and tend to disrupt society. We believe that any individual will be better fitted as a member of society if he has some control and knowledge of in- dustrial processes, techniques and skills. FACULTY E- 9 H GEOGRAPHY DEPARTMENT This department has experienced a revision of its courses for stu- dents preparing to teach in the ele- mentary grades with the purpose of adjusting their content more definitely to the requirements of the new course of study. Teaching Geography by the unit method has been stressed during the past year. Students have been stimulated to greater efforts by using their own ideas in the devel- opment of the different projects. Mr. Branom talked to the schools, over the radio, every Tues- dav morning during the year. HISTORY DEPARTMENT The importance of the social studies in the school program is now unquestioned, some educators going so far as to declare that the whole school program should be built about them. Two primary aims of this department are: to help students acquire a knowledge of social relations and conditions that will enable them to act intelligent- ly in civic affairs and to acquaint them with the material in this field suitable to the grades of the ele- mentary and junior high schools and methods of presenting this ma- terial. FACULTY 19 « MR, MILLER MISS OLSEN MR. JOHNSON MISS GILDEMEISTER MR. HERR MRS. LEE MISS GARTHE MISS PEICKERT KINDERGARTEN DEPARTMENT The importance of the pre- school period in the development of an individual demands that a kindergarten teacher have a whole- some appreciation and understand- ing of little children physically, socially, mentally, and emotional- MATHEMATICS The Mathematics Department, composed of Mr. Johnson, Mr. Mil- ler and Mr. Herr, is trying to teach prospective teachers of mathema- tics that arithmetic is not a subject dreaded b school children unless ly. The goal of the kindergarten department is to train future teachers that the greatest possible number of little children may have a happy, worthy experience in school. DEPARTMENT the teacher makes it so. The method by which the subject has been taught in the past is responsi- ble for the opinion that arithmetic is hard. MUSIC DEPARTMENT The Music Department aims to provide various and differentiated t ' pes of student training for pur- poses vocational, avocational and social. Music brings to the soul — FACULTY joy in what cannot be defined to the intellectual part, or to calcula- tion. It creates a land of lovely chords where life no longer jars, nor jolts, nor frets, but glides.  20 « EDUCATION DEPARTMENT Our attempt to replace textbook recitations by library and field- work experiences is working out this year through a system of room libraries, to supplement the small college library, and by a closer con- tact with the observation and prac- tice schools. Students preparing for the junior high schools now spend a part of each school day in working with the regular teachers of our campus junior high school. Students preparing for the ele- mentary schools will in future car- ry on their practice teaching under the supervision of a member of the Department who will devote his full time to conferring with them. PSYCHOLOGY DEPARTMENT The aims and plans of this de- partment are to give its students help in adjusting themselves more successfully to college life, to give them a knowledge of the funda- mental principles underlying hu- man behavior, and to show how these may be applied in the devel- opment of habits, ideals, attitudes and skills. Special study is made of the laws of mental hygiene and their application to the treatment of such cases of maladjustment, and behavior problems as must be dealt with bv the teacher. FACULTY  21 « PHYSICAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT The aims of the physical educa- tion department are to provide op- portunities for every student for wholesome reaction, and to devel- op interest and ability to teach play activities. Recreation is funda- mental to both physical and men- tal health. The department hopes also to contribute toward the de- velopment of a friendly, happy and loyal attitude within the Normal College, and full participation in all its activities. During the year 1930-1931, the department has increased its sup- ply of multigraphed material on health and physical activities for the use of students. The W. A. A. has added archery and table tennis to a list of activities which is al- ready long. Interest in inter-sec- tional tournament is less than in the past, while interest in individu- al sports, as golf and tennis has been increased. Intra - mural athletics for men have developed tremen- dously under the leadership of Mr. Wyatt, who has substituted for Mr. Kripner during the last year. The department has contributed to various assembly and festival programs during the year. Out- side programs have included those at the Englewood Woman ' s Club, the Henry Suden Club, contribu- tions to the Civic Assembly and to Teacher ' s Day and a program for Youth Night. FACULTY MISS O ' SULLIVAX MISS FRAKL MISS MILNER HOME ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT Home economics education has always been based on an activities program, but there has been a con- stantly changing emphasis in the work to meet the demands of the day. When this subject was first introduced into the curriculum of the public schools, skill in food preparation and garment construc- tion were considered of paramount importance. Later as scientific dis- coveries accumulated interest was centered around an understanding of the scientific aspect of the sub- ject in relation to the home. To- day there has been another shift in economic and social order. Upon the homemaker falls the resDonsi- bility for the health of the family, emphasis due to the effect upon the home of our changing, industrial, for the wise use of money, time and energy, within the home, and for those enduring satisfactions which result from family life. Thus train- ing for better home and family liv- ing is the scope of home economics education today. To meet the current needs of society our curriculum at the Nor- mal College includes such courses as food and nutrition in relation to health, clothing and textiles, as re- lated to the family group, child care and home management and organization. FACULTY  23 « 1 MRS. JOHNSTONE LIBRARY Our library contains a wealth of material, 32,000 vols., periodicals and pictures. Miss Bates, the librarian, assisted by Mrs. John- stone, Mrs. Drazba and Miss Salis- bury, has aimed to make this ma- terial available to all, with lectures, indexing, and desk assistance. We have lived in crowded con- ditions, hoping for the day when more shelves and adequate reading room equipment would make stu- dents happy in the use of the library. Roaming among books and searching for the best among written thoughts of masters in our profession, is one ladder that helps us in climbing to the goal. OFFICE To insure greater efficiency the work of the college office force is departmentalized, each member of the force being responsible for cer- tain phases of the school ' s office work. Miss Catherine Powers, the President ' s secretary, has charge of all student credit records and school records. Mrs. Anna Otto gives her special attention to class schedules and faculty attendance records. Miss Veronica Dilzer is student attendance clerk and issues warning and failure notices. Miss Patterson is financial secretary and handles school supplies. Miss Mabel Lulu is secretary for the Chicago Schools Journal. FACULTY 24 SENIORS 25 « FACULTY FAREWELL The students come and go but the faculty stay on forever! At the end of each semester the faculty body stands up and shouts a long and loud farewell to the graduating class. Does this fare- well mean anything to the gradu- ates who are leaving our doors? It should mean something. What should it mean? What does it mean? It should mean more than a mere formality or a farewell or a well wish. To some it does. If every member of the faculty join, as they do now, in expressing a genuine and meaningful farcircll to the outgoing class, it will be- come a mighty force that cannot help but permeate the future and sustain the efforts of all of you in your endeavors to carry on the work of which we have given you but a small beginning. JUNE CLASS 26 « UPPER SENIOR CLASS Upper Senior Class history — what a multitude of hours of work and thought and successful en- deavors that short phrase covers. Just to think that we, the members of the class of 1931, have written a chapter of history in the annals of the Chicago Normal College during our three years here fills us with a strange, indefinable thrill that comes only with the knowl- edge of work successfully accom- plished, of a history that can be left with pride for the following class- men to read and emulate. We have worked together and played to- gether, have shared joys and sor- rows alike, and have come through tests and trials with a keen eye and a well-developed sense of the re- sponsibilities to be ours in the fu- ture. But, best of all, we have come through with a greater abil- ity and wisdom to meet these re- sponsibilities. To those who have encouraged us to go on and who have unstint- i gly given time and thought to help us reach our goal, we extend our deep and sincere gratitude. From the class of 1931 have been chosen leaders of the school in all fields — scholastics, social activities, and sports — positions now to be filled from the ranks of the lower classmen; and so, To you We throw the torch; Be yours to hold it high.

Old spirits fear its sharp reminder of their own decay. Youth worships each re-creation of itself that molds the patterns of the past to signifi- cant new forms and changing pur- poses. We can not trust the past to build a nascent future. Nor can outh wait for wisdom until time has drained away its power and the nnpulsive joy of creation. The ger m of life stems from the living. Justice can be more than suc- cessful power and morality con- ceived as something above the best bargain we can make with our en- vironment. At the root of all philosophies is man ' s increasing need of man. C ' arm welcome and courage to you of our rising generation who come in } ' our growing time of life to remake our universe and shape the new freedom of our machine age through friendly labor with your fellows. UM M M -J ' ct FEBRUARY CLASS  54 « LOWER SENIOR CLASS Time passes! For three years we who are now Lower Seniors have been unaware of its flight; but now, as the hour of parting draws near, we notice that the pen- dulum is swinging slower, slower, and that soon its movement will cease entirely. With regret we re- alize that we shall never be able to turn this clock back and set it go- ing again. Happily we have our memories, beautiful memories — memories that we could never have had but for our days at Normal. Three years ago we set out upon a journey — a journey which we hoped would end in our becoming teachers. The realization of that hope was our sole aim as we met fearfully on that morning in Feb- ruary, 1929. We were fearful be- cause we felt that we were without friends in this strange wilderness called Normal. Little did we re- alize that the glamor of the covet- ed piece of sheep-skin which we hoped to attain would soon be dimmed by the stronger light of some of the most precious friend- ships we would ever know. In the passing days, however, as we learned things that would be help- ful in our work, we also learned the invaluable lesson that love and joy come from working and playing with others.

' Kf UPPER JUNIOR CLASS To strive to attain high schol- arship ... to cultivate an appre- ciation of all that is beautiful in art and in life . . . to express loyalty to our school. Such fragments of sentences may reach the ears of those passing by room 200 during third hour on a Thursday. The Upper Juniors are having a meet- ing. Having assembled, they have centered all their thought upon their class and their school, by reading their Class Code of Honor. To serve others is a fine ambi- tion, and one which the Class of ' 3 2 would like to call its own. The theme of the short business ses- sions, therefore, seems to be serv- ice. Discussions are concerned with what should be undertaken next, or with how to proceed with that which has already been un- dertaken as a class project. The greater part of the time, however. is spent in the cultivation of an appreciation of the beautiful. Shall we ever forget our trio con- test, or the Christmas program given by our 62 ' s, or the hour when our PE ' s danced for us, or the day when Miss Melody, and Mr. Ault, of Calumet High School came to speak and to read to us, or our class tea — or any other of the beautiful times we have had together? Time flees rapidly; and we, now Upper Juniors, continue on our victorious way. Each meeting dis- closes some new means or activity by which our wonderfully unified class upholds our Code of Honor, the conclusion of which strikes the keynote in all we do: These ideals we shall endeavor to realize that both now and in the coming years, we may live more richly and serve more efficiently. JUNIORS 76 « SECTION 461 MISS BLOUNT, ADVISOR In the role of a unit of the Up- per Junior Class, we 46l ' s settle back for a few moments of delight- ful retrospect of the two years we have spent in the Normal College. They ' ve been happy years. We ' ve had such good times together! Re- member when we all tramped over to Hamilton Park to enjoy a heav- enly feast of sandwiches, cake, and fruit. Remember how cute we looked as night-before-Christmas children searching diligently for Santa Claus at the Christmas Fes- tival. And we ' ve had Miss Blount! We have come to admire her methods of teaching and her humanity, to respect her, and to love her. Per- haps the one picture of our life at the Chicago Normal College that will remain longest and brightest in our memories will be one of the surprise luncheon served in the household arts dining room, when Miss Blount introduced the new members to the old ones of the section; it was all planned by this quiet, unobtruding woman, who has come to mean so much in our lives. We thank the Powers that Be for giving us our section! JUNIORS 77 « yj Kh.   « t SECTION 462 MISS HUTCHISON, ADVISOR Here we come, chattering like fury — our section, reputed to be, aside from the PE sections, the noisiest one in Normal. We may appear to be cross-word puzzle ad- dicts, incessant gossips, or genuine little trouble makers, for we are a happy-go-lucky lot. While others plod, we drift along leisurely. But when exam time comes, our more serious girls don ' t do an ounce more of actual work than the others do. Take a look into a vacant room near our lockers, and see us working! And do we get results? We ' ve gone through near- ly four semesters without a single failure! Is it possible that most of us girls have known each other for not quite two years? In this short time we have developed one great big friendship; and co-operation, even more than humor, is our chief characteristic. We have no in- dividual egoisms. We sympathize with each other in our efforts to attain a common end. On the day of our graduation, many will be our reminiscences of our joy- ous times we shall have had to- gether — times which will live in our memories forever. JUNIORS  78 « SECTION 464 DR. SHERFF, ADVISOR Since September, 1929, our sec- tion, 464, has become more and more closely united by bonds of affection, cooperation, and loyalty — affection for each other; co- operation with our section, our class, our faculty; and loyalty to our school and its ideal — To serve. From the first, we have realized the importance of the vocation that we were being train- ed for; and in order to equip our- selves for it as well as we could, we have become worthy participants in club, social, athletic, and class activities. Though we are so united as a section, individual personalities have not been lost or dimmed by the union. The problems and struggles of each girl are those of all of us; and we all take pride and delight in the earnestness, the wit, the ability, the talent, or the dignity and graciousness of each of our section-mates. As a group, we are sober yet merry, proud yet humble, prom- inent yet unprepossessing. We arc of Normal. Normal ' s ideals are our ideals, and we consider it our sacred privilege to perpetuate and to realize them. JUNIORS  79 « SECTION 465 MISS DEUPREE, ADVISOR Our Section, 46 5, has resulted from the union of Sections 3 65 and 3 66. Although at first we felt a natural antipathy to this union, we soon grew happy in the streng- thening of the bonds of friendship among us all. Outstanding per- sonalities, and there are not a few, have been merged, at least to the extent that no one dominates the group; and each girl is made to feel that she is a necessary member. Our group includes members of practically every organization m the school — the Normalite Staff, the Orchestra, the Glee Club, the Sketch Club, the Senior Dramatic Club, the Creative Writing Club, and the Poetry Club. We are truly exercising our creative powers. We earnestly strive to live up to our class Code of Honor, as our self- reliance, our loyalty to our school — and, yes, our scholarship records — testify. Our section may not be the best in the College in all re- spects, but in the calibre of the girls, at least, we, its members, be- lieve that a finer group could not be found. JUNIORS  80 « SECTION H. A. 4 MISS FREEMAN, ADVISOR The ideals of loyalty, service, and true Normal Spirit, as set forth in the Code of the Class of June, 193 2, have been the stop and go signals for our section during the past four semesters. To keep abreast of Normal activities, each of us in our small group has had to go forth in a different direc- tion — into Fellowship, Home Eco- nomics Club, W. A. A., Student Council, S.D.C., and the Emblem. With such varied activities, life at Normal has been for us a kalei- doscope of unfailing interest. At the recent White House Confer- ence on Child Health, an eminent physician stated that the food habits of the nation could be im- proved to a greater degree through home economics, than through any other medium. With the hope of contributing our part to this end, in addition to the ideals of our class, we feel that we have hitched our wagon to a star. Wc H. A. 4 ' s have had work a plenty, honors enough, and loads of fun; and all too soon we shall be saying good- bye and signing out. JUNIORS  81 I sijI.M SECTION K. G. 4 MISS JACOBS, ADVISOR As in the story of the ten Uttle, nine Httle, eight Httle Indians, our number has been decreased from twenty-two to eighteen; but our spirit remains undaunted. Our in- terests are varied. We have artists and athletes, scholars and sculptors, poets and punsters, pianists and psychologists, and executive of- ficers in two organizations. As, fortunately, we have Miss Jacobs as our advisor, several of us are en- thusiastically interested in dra- matics. Sometimes we fail to register sufficient skill to perform publicly; but we act rather well at all times. We did, however, aid in putting on a successful kinder- garten assembly. We like social affairs and have had several lunch- eons and a splash party. We are spring enthusiasts; most of us excel in spring sports or in writing poe- try. We have won no prizes for festival regalia yet, but we are still trying to win some. As we have chosen as our life work the tremendous task of introducing young children to school, we insist that we are serious-minded. We enjoy working together. JUNIORS SECTION M. T. 4 MR. WILSON. ADVISOR We MT4 ' s are now the smallest MT section in this school. Last September, Geiger had to drop out of our little family; and Joe Brod- erick left Normal to enter St. Jo- seph ' s College at Hinsdale, Illinois, to become a Franciscan Father. As we are manual workers, we find much pleasure in working with tools. We are known for our shyness, but we are trying to over- come it. Each of us now par- ticipates in some school activity. One of us has entered a class in dancing; another pitches for the Normen; and still another has played basket-ball and has had the honor of being president of the M.A.A. Each member of our sec- tion now realizes what he has missed in not having attended our class meetings regularly. When Mr. Smith, our former advisor, gave over his duties as our coach to Mr. Wilson, we felt grieved; we wish to thank him for his sincere efforts to help us. With Mr. Wilson as our new section ad- visor, however, the members of our little section are expecting to make their remaining days at Nor- mal happy and successful.

E. 4 MISS BYRNE, ADVISOR Four semesters and several days ago, our classmates brought forth in this college, a new section, con- ceived in ability, and dedicated to the proposition that our section must be the best ever. Now we are engaged in a great rhetorical account telling how this section, as any other section so conceived and so well sponsored, can success- fully endure. We are about to begin our final year at Normal. We have come to look upon the school as ours, who here have lived two years in search of knowledge. In later vears as we look back. memories will return of many hours, well and happily spent to- gether, not only in our school but outside as well. The school will little note nor long remember our brief stay here, but we can never forget what we have gained here — not in education alone, but in the formation of life-long friends and priceless experiences. Looking forward, we are happy, happy in having still another year before us, and secure in knowing that the foundations we have built at Nor- mal will not perish from our lives. JUNIORS = = 84 LOWER JUNIOR CLASS On a cold day in February, 193 0, about one hundred of us eagerly set out on the Chicago Normal College highway, our goal bright before us. We have en- deavored to uphold the standards of the College and to promote fel- lowship among ourselves as we have travelled along this not-too- smooth road. Striving together, we have almost passed the third milestone. We hope that in the afteryears our present instructors will have cause to say: I remember the class of January, 1933. They were a rather quiet, industrious group, worthy of all the prosperity and renown that have come their way. Should this ever happen, we shall not take all the credit, but we shall give a large portion of it to our advisors who are guiding us along our course. JUNIORS SECTION 341 MR. VAN HISE, ADVISOR Notwithstanding anything which we may say to the contrary, we 34rs are enjoying Hfe here at Normal. We are a singularly in- dependent group. Perhaps we do not study as much, or as hard, as we should; still, we get along very nicely, and we don ' t worry much about anything (except, perhaps, tests) . We have many memories, both sad and happy. We remember those times of warnings and fail- ures, those worrisome finals, those apt-to-be-late term papers, those plants that wouldn ' t grow, and those bones that we failed to bring. Overshadowing these memories, however, are those of light-hearted parties, of a Columbus Day hike, of the morning when some of us occupied a row in the United Artists ' Theatre, and of glorious hours spent on the campus, playing baseball and soccer. Then there are our section advisors: first, Mr. Wise, with his sly good humor, and now, Mr. Van Hise, with his benign good-nature, both of them ever ready to advise us, for which aid we thank them. Altogether, we rather like Section 341. JUNIORS !6 « SECTION 342 MRS. LEE, ADVISOR Our section, 342, includes all the members of 242 and one-half those of 243, but we are fused into one congenial group. Under the guidance of Mrs. Lee, our beloved faculty advisor, we are trying to develop a fine spirit of cooperation, and we believe we are succeeding. We are a very versatile group. We have artists, athletes, mu- sicians, and members of the Poetry Club, the Geography Club, the Dancing Club, and Cui Bono. Our life, however, has not been only one of work and attainment. Among the good times we have had this year, were our theatre and our Hallowe ' en parties. We also enjoy attending social hour, the Fellowship parties, and the S.D.C. plays. Last semester we derived .t great deal of pleasure from writing and presenting our health habits play, Health Wins. We also worked out an assembly program on Birds, for use in the ele- mentary school. We 342 ' s intend to continue our life at Normal with as much enthusiasm as we have shown in the first half of our sojourn here. JUNIORS  87 « SECTION H. A. 3 MISS 1-RAKE, ADVISOR Our small group is like the mosaics of old, in which each tiny part, beautiful in itself, made for a more beautiful whole. Our per- sonalities vary from the most studious to the most care-free. One trait found in all five of us is co- operation, for we understand each other ' s temperaments. We are an energetic, enthusiastic, and lively group. Good nature and high spirits are ever present with us, and our laughter is contagious. As a section, we are well represented at all school games and social func- tions. At the Christmas festival we received honorable mention. Our social spirit is expressed not only in school, but out of it as well. We make it a point to assemble at the home of one of the girls a few times each semester. At these gatherings we sing and dance, eat and play. To Miss Frake, our genial ad- visor, we are all very much in- debted for her wonderful help and counsel. May not our school, also, with its many students and its many teachers, be likened to a beautiful mosaic? JUNIORS SECTION K. G. 3 MRS. MC NAMEE, ADVISOR We Kg 3 ' s are thirteen strong. Unlucky? Not at all. We are light of heart and all thirteen of us are eager to acquire the training which Normal has to offer. Good-fellow- ship, loyalty, and willingness to co- operate are a few of the outstand- ing characteristics of our section. We are very fond of music and dancing. Not a small number of us have joined the dancing class; and at odd moments one may find them practicing their steps and close and hops. Glee Club and Special Choir claim many of our members; and some of our more advanced students have aspired to join the Piano Methods Class. The Sketch Club appeals to our aes- thetic taste, and has among its members a few of the more artistic girls of our group. Athletics in- clude a great number of our ac- tivities. We swim and play tennis; and horse-back riding, which is under the direction of a Kg 3, is now becoming more and more popular. Unity of interest, to- gether with the spirit of comrade- ship which prevails among us girls, makes our section a pleasant one in which to be. JUNIORS  89 « SECTION M. T. 3 MR. HENKE, ADVISOR In February, 1930, a dirigible started on a three-years ' industrial arts cruise, carrying part of our present crew and a few others who have left us. After five months of interesting but not always smooth travel, we had finished the first lap of our journey. It was during those first few months that three of the crew left. One of them, Elmer Sundberg, had advanced to an in- structorship. As we were about to launch into the next part of our journey, with our slightly smaller crew, we were joined by a member of a former crew which had fol- lowed the same course. With our ranks strengthened by this addi- tion, we have had an eventful trip. Each man has done his best, and a truer course has never been steered. Good fortune and good scholar- ship have kept us together on the third lap of our course, although our traveling is becoming a little harder. At the finish — well, the trip is not over, but our spirit is dauntless. JUNIORS  90 « i irflllHl SECTION P. E. 3 MISS BRESNAHAN, ADVISOR From the North, the South, the East, and the West, we P. E. 3 ' s have gathered here, to stay for three short years, ' e say short years, because it seems hardly pos- sible that we have completed one- half of our training here. It seems but yesterday that we were just becoming acquainted with each other, and thinking, Are these girls to be my companions for three years? Now we find that we have become one big family, that is mothered by Miss Breshna- han, who must sometimes feel like the mother hen who has hatched out a brood of ducklings instead of chicks. Our common joys and disappouitments, our successes and defeats, as well as our little dis- agreements now and then, help to bring us all closer to each other. We have changed in number as well as in character. One was spirited away during the summer, by marriage, and another we lost to another section. Whatever Fate has in store for us, we ' ll try to meet it cheerfully and with a full sense of our obligation to ourselves and those around us. JUNIORS 91 « SNAPS FRESHMEN  93 « UPPER FRESHMEN CLASS When we Upper Freshmen en- tered the portals of the Chicago Normal College last September, how many of you realized that we weren ' t just another class but the World ' s Fair Class? As the World ' s Fair stands for progress, so does this class. At our first meet- ing we were informed as to the way in which we should elect our officers. At this same meeting — while we were trying to agree on our constitution — the question of standards and ideals came up. We decided to follow the ones set up by preceding classes; but — since we are a progressive class — if we can set up better ones, we will do so. Our first social function was a St. Valentine ' s party. We had so- cial dancing, special entertainment, and some refreshments. Every one went home hoping for another class party. However, we do other things than merely amuse our- selves. We gave, for instance, the Memorial Day assembly program. More and more we Upper Fresh- men have come to realize that time resembles a bird which wings its way in silent flight. It disappears before one can fully realize its presence. Thus the first year at Normal has passed so rapidly that most of the idealistic work which a Century of Progress Cl ass should accomplish necessarily re- mains for our future years. FRESHMEN 94 « SECTION 201 MR. BRAXOM, ADVISOR Normal College was the place; 101 was the number; and Mr. Branom was the advisor. These were the few bare facts presented to us twenty-eight somewhat be- wildered prospective school teach- ers that September morning. Our environment was new; we saw no familiar faces. After a few weeks, however, our group, representing fifteen high schools, was one con- genial section. During the first semester most of us joined the Special Choir, Glee Club, or Or- chestra, and a few of us joined the Footlights. Our volley ball team led all of the 200 sections and finished fifth in the tournament. The second semester ' s approach brought with it sadness. After a period of illness Catherine O ' Toole passed away. She was certainly a lovable girl; and when she died she left us with a sense of emptiness. Although all of us deserve some credit for making 201 so active a section, we could not have done it without the aid of our chairman, Helene McGianiss, and our advisor, Mr. Branom. These two work night and day to make us the best group in the school. FRESHMEN  9 5 SECTION 202 DR. WHITTEN, ADVISOR Just a few introductions, a few shy smiles, and it was done. We twenty-four lonesome freshmen of Section 102, representing eleven high schools, were welded into one friendly group. Our unity has manifested itself in many ways, chiefly in co-operation both in academic and in athletic activities. Under the guidance of our ad- visor. Dr. Whitten, we passed through our first semester without any failures. May we skim lightly over the fact that we are by no means champion athletes? In ath- letics our only redeeming feature is enthusiasm. During a soccer game, one of our members broke her leg in her wild exuberance. And in spite of the accident we enjoy sports immensely. We are a social group. We are represented in the Glee Club, Geography Club, Poetry Club, Creative Writing Club, Footlights, Piano Methods Club, Art Club, and the Normalite Staff. No wreaths of laurel have adorned our brows as yet, but two semesters are only a beginning. We have hardly made our bow. All of us, twenty-four girls and one lone boy, have mighty achievements planned for the future. FRESHMEN )( « Vi SECTION 203 MR. HATFIELD, ADVISOR A happy, carefree - appearing group is our section, 203. We ap- parently worry not at all about matters that demand serious atten- tion. The only time when troubled looks have darkened our young faces was the end of the semester, when all of us looked fearfully at our lockers. But then, not seeing any notes peeking out, we breathed sighs of relief and once more be- came nonchalant. There ' s nothing mediocre or un- obtrusive about us. Even in re- ceiving warnings, we do things on a big scale. On the very day on which we gave our beloved chemis- try teacher a lovely Easter basket, he gave us twelve warnings. Mr. Eilert must have been surprised when he saw how few flunk notices we received. We are the type of students that enliven a classroom but bring wrinkles to a teacher ' s brow. Still, there really are some teachers who like us, k nowing, or thinking they know, what we are. Who knows but that some day we shall be the best behaved section in school? Wouldn ' t our patient ad- visor be surprised if we were quiet for a whole period? FRESHMEN  97 « Mm ♦ « i t.. SECTION 204 MRS. SCHACHT, ADVISOR North Side, South Side, all around the town! Girls from every section of the City and from far outside its limits had journeyed Normalward that first Monday morning; and from that vast group we 204 ' s were chosen to form a section. We were a trifle bewilder- ed, yet courageous and hopeful and exceedingly curious. Full in- dividual identities we surrendered in becoming a group; independent enterprise we shattered in the cast- ing of lots together. From registra- tion cards, fees, locker combina- tion s, and guide books, we emerged to hnd ourselves a united little band who had weathered the starting fog courageously. The officers of our crew were speedily dispatched to their posts; everyman-jack of us set to work whipping up the sails; and in no time at all the cockswain was calling All ' s well! as we skimmed over the high seas of our college life. Normal College is beginning to signify to us an opportunity for labor and accomplishment. United officially as a section and unofficial- ly as friends, we shall realize our dreams. In the years ahead, we shall not be forgotten. FRESHMEN  98 SECTION 205 MISS GILDEMEISTER, ADVISOR We have few talented girls in section 205, but all of us co-operate in developing a section talent. In athletics, we have won man) games, which success we accredit to our excellent team-work. We have demonstrated dramatic ability, particularly in our as- sembly and our health program. We were the first freshman section of the fall semester to give a social function. At our jolly Thanks- giving party, we danced, played games, exhibited a number of our baby pictures, and listened to, or played, piano solos. After the serv- ing of our refreshments we left with a deeper friendship for all in our section. We hope to gain distinction for good sportsmanship, not only in athletics but also in scholarship. And you will always find us repre- sented at club meetings, social hour, athletic games, or theatre parties. We hope to look back upon our school days as happy ones, and to feel glad that each of us was able to make her class just a little better than it would have been without her. FRESHMEN SECTION H. A. 2 MISS FRAKE, ADVISOR On September 2, five of the scared freshies, who met for the first time in the auditorium, were the first arrivals of our Household Arts section. Before the end of the first week, three more girls joined them. It was not long before all of us were acquainted, and soon each one had picked out her par- ticular pal . In spite of the trials which all freshmen encountered, we stuck together ; and we soon became accustomed to all the ways of Normal. Then followed a round of assignnients, classes, tests, warn- ings, and social hours; and before we were aware of the fact, our first semester had ended. In February another student, returning to Nor- mal, joined us; and now we nine jolly girls are going merrily on to- ward the completion of our second semester. When asked to give her opinion of us, one teacher answered: There ' s so much bad in the best of us. There ' s so much good in the worst of us, That it hardly behooves any of us, To talk about the rest of us. FRESHMEN 100 « W ' MHt A SECTION K. G. 2 MISS OLSON, ADVISOR It is the opinion of us Kg 2 ' s that Fortuna must have been in a particularly good humor on the opening day of the September, 1930, semester — else how could she have favored us, a band of quaking freshmen, with so remark- able an advisor as Miss Olson! We take this opportunity to thank both the goddess and her gift for making our hrst year at Normal a happy one. One of our most successful so- cial functions of last semester was our splash party. We vigorous- ly played the usual water tag and catch, and a number of us dived excellently. Although we didn ' t win the championship in either the captain or the volley ball tourna- ment, we thoroughly enjoyed each of our games. We have participat- ed in most of the activities of the school. Listed among us are active members of Special Choir, Glee Club, Art Club, and Footlights; the accompanist for the Glee Club; and the president and the secretary of the Poetry Club. Our plan for next semester is to go onward and upward. FRESHMEN 101 « SECTION M. T. 2 MR. HENKE, ADVISOR Our Section, M T 2, which was born September 4, 193 0, is one of those live-wire groups which put the will in the slogan of Chi- cago, into the past tense. After we had become acquainted, in the first few days of our opening term, we organized a Protective Societv to guard several of our more sus- ceptible fellows from certain dis- tractions prevalent at Normal, and then settled down to hard work. One of our most successful under- takings of our first semester was our helping to give, under the direction of our advisor, Mr. Henke, an Industrial Arts as- sembly. We also take pride in the fact that we have given three of our best men to Normal ' s first football team, four to her present baseball team, and two to execu- tive offices in our class organiza- tion. We M T 2 ' s have always done our best to support Chicago Normal College. At the end of our first year we have this firm re- solve — to do all in our power to help make the World ' s Fair Class of 193 3 the best class that ever will have left Normal. FRESHMEN  102 SECTION P. E. 2 MISS SWAW ' ITE, ADVISOR Our group — one of happy, healthy, sun-tanned girls and a red-haired boy — who in Septem- ber, 1930, embarked upon a strange voyage, are now jolly tars on a good ship captained by Miss Swawite. Our demeanor we will- ingly adapt to the ship ' s officer who is in charge. For one officer, our lusty section assumes a mild and almost dignified attitude, except when we exchange ironical re- marks with her. For another, we assume a buoyant and happy-go- lucky air. For still another, we are attentive and solemn lest we forget our P ' s and Q ' s. For one of our dear officers we meekly recline in such a way that our freshly laun- dered white shirts become dull gray. For another we gladly as- sume a restive position — whether it ' s wanted or not — even putting our feet on the chairs in front of us. For yet another, we cut feath- ery objects from aluminum. With our mates, also, we cooperate. In fact, although our ship has not long been out of port, we are a happy, serious, fun-loving crew, studying, playing, and growing up together. FRESHMEN 103 LOWER FRESHMEN CLASS On a certain eventful Monday, at nine o ' clock, four distinct groups of young people sat in the Normal College auditorium, eye- ing each other suspiciously, pre- pared, even anxious, to repeal hos- tile advances made by anyone. What a change has taken place! Now the symbols LM, PE, MT, and KG mean to us lower fresh- men only the departments in which our classmates work. This miracle has been effected through our so cial contacts with each other. Our first big event, a tea, sent tottering our barriers of restraint. Then came our first class meeting, which immediately aroused our desire to participate in school activities. From then on things have happen- ed thick and fast. We organized a class orchestra (the first at Nor- mal), joined athletic teams, took up newspaper work, and par- ticipated in student government and even social dancing. We held another class meeting, at which we choose a nominating committee; gave a tea dance, at which our orchestra played, to introduce the nominees; and held our election. Our class is writing its chapter in the annals of the Chicago Normal College. We are an organization to be reckoned with and depended upon, both in emergencies and in the gayer life at the institution which we hope some day to call our Alma Mater. FRESHMEN 104 « SECTION 121 MR. HELBING, ADVISOR Artists, poets, musicians, cynics, and one Swede comprise our poly- glot group of 121. The thing that is individual about us is that we are a co-ed-u-ca-tion-al group. ' VCe have thirteen girls and three boys. We haven ' t known each other long, but we really enjoy seeing one another every day. We may have different interests and dif- ferent views of life; but here at the Normal College we are united. We possess the friendliness, the sym- pathy, and the humor that every other group at Normal has. Our ideals are high and noble, and we are striving in our original way to reach them. Realizing a need for training, some of us have entered to prepare to teach while others are here to use this training as a stepping stone to something else. We shall not let our lights shine under a bushel very long, but in the near future we shall become leaders in our school. Six semes- ters are a long period of time, but it is a pleasant period of time to look forward to as a member of 121. FRESHMEN  105 « SECTION 122 MISS PEICKERT, ADVISOR Fate stepped in last February and took a hand in forming the lives of Normalite freshmen. Life- long friendships will be made be- tween many of us who were picked seemingly at random to make up Section 122. From eight high schools, scattered over all sections of the city, we came. We were complete strangers to each other; but one seeing us together now would never suspect this fact. Each girl in the section has one or two friends with whom she spends a great deal of the time, but we haven ' t a single clique. A friendly argument about something is al- ways being carried on, but no one is narrow-minded enough to take what is said as a personal affront. We usually manage to lunch at the same table; and when a group of girls enjoy eating together, al- though they are in the same classes, well, they must be congenial. The failures we have experienced have called for more strenuous effort, while our victories have not turned our heads. Unity is our motto. FRESHMEN 106 SECTION 123 MRS. PHIPPS, ADVISOR Pride often goes before a fall. Having held the coveted places of big seniors in high school, we 123 ' s were going to take our hrst venture into Normal calmly, even nonchalantly. Upon entering, how- ever, we discarded our dignity, be- cause the building, if not over- whelming, was certainly austere. When, after several hours of seem- ingly unceasing making out of records and hearing what to do and what not to do, we slowly trod after our section advisor, our vitality ebbed. We wondered if all days would be as the hrst. Fortunateh ' , we have come to enjoy Normal and each other. Our one hundred interests include art, music, aviation, writing, language, travel, and politics; (one of us has the high hope of being the first wo- man mayor of Chicago). Our hobbies include riding, dancing, singing, and collecting foreign coins. As to pet peeves, we have not a few. We dislike affected people, post mortems on bridge games, the expression ain ' t that cute, noise, a sarcastic laugh, and stale jokes. We 123 ' s are a varied, but a congenial group, one always ready to help each other. FRESHMEN  107 « SECTION MISS FRAKE, Monday! Normal! A new in- stitution of learning! A new pro- gram of study! Would we like it? Such were the fragments of thought that raced through our minds as we crossed the threshold of what was to be in the years to come, our Alma Mater. We enter- ed individually, little knowing what was in store for us. One of our experiences was the meeting of each other. We were told we would henceforth be known as the H. A. I ' s. With that rather prosaic title as introduction, we became ac- H. A. L ADVISOR quainted with the life of the new school and with each other. We take pleasure in presenting our- selves to you as three girls of three nationalities, from three high schools in three sections of our city. We are a happy trio. Conversation will often be broken by the merry laughter of one of us; after which we others can do nothing but fol- low suit. But do not think we are never serious. There is the same ambition in our group as in others, and this is coupled with a willing helpfulness that makes us better friends. FRESHMEN 108 SECTION K. G. 1 MISS CABELL, ADVISOR When we six Kg ' s appeared at the Chicago Normal College, we were taken under the protection of Miss Cabel and Marie Coch. We then began immediately to make our presence felt in this large in- stitution. After going through the trying ordeal of getting new gym outfits, second-hand botany and history books — as well as varied, helpful advice from the Kg 2 ' s — we buckled down to hard work. Of course our chief interests center in kindergarten work; and at the slightest request, we will tell you of our little child studies. We Kg I ' s also have whole- heartedly participated in the ac- tivities of the school. Among the clubs in which we are represented are the Kindergarten - Primary Club, the Footlights, the Glee Club, the Poetry Club, and the So- cial Dancing Club. One of the most enjoyable experiences of our first semester was attending a luncheon given us by Miss Cabell. All six of us are enjoying the work, the other activities, and the spirit of the school. Although we are a very small section, we are going to try to serve the Chicago Normal College. FRESHMEN 109 « r JLi t m m At « SECTION M. T. 1 MR. HENKE, ADVISOR On February 2, 1931, we twelve M.T.I ' s appeared in the Industrial Arts department. With the guid- ance of Mr. Henke and Leo Wer- nick, we quickly and pleasantly spent our hrst weeks. After we had become accustomed to our sur- roundings and had made a few acquaintances, we commenced to enjoy what we believe will be the best three years of our lives. Al- though a bit reticent at first, we gradually became active in athlet- ics, publications, clubs, and com- mittees, and frequentlv attended social events. If we are not seen, we are heard. for we sing I Wish I Were in Peoria and The Girl of My Dreams whether we are working in shop or gym, or are idly stroll- ing through the halls. In classes we show this same enthusiasm; we like our teachers and our courses. Were the question What do you think of Normal? to be asked us, our response would undoubtedly contain many superlatives. Whether in shop, classroom, gym, or social hour, we M.T.I ' s are there body and soul. We aim to play hard, to study diligently, and to enjoy ourselves immensely. FRESHMEN 110 SECTION P. E. 1 MISS BECKLEY, ADVISOR Ah, Normalites at last! The doors of Normal College have been thrown open to us, and we have en- tered joyously. It is customary and natural for incoming freshmen to be subdued; but we were an arrogant group. We recall no cold, bleak February entrance day. The fourteen of us gathered in room 107. Within five minutes we knew each other ' s names. Suddenly our friendly babble was interrupted by the en- trance of a small, pretty woman — Miss Beckley, our faculty advisor. Immediately we smiled more hap- pily. The next day we met to hold our election and to transact all our business. We chose Simon Cass as our chairman, so that all the re- sponsibility would fall on broad shoulders; and we made Erwin Wiener our treasurer. Secret ambitions distinguish us from the common herd; we dream of becoming opera singers, dram- atists, Olympic champions, and missionaries. At present, however, we are satisfied to be fully occupied with training for physical educa- tion instructors. We have indeed enjoyed these first weeks at Nor- mal, and we expect no less happi- ness in the coming semesters. FRESHMEN 111 « SNAPS • 112 « ACTIVITIES  113 « ART GUILD MISS HUTCHISON, MR. GEILEN, SPONSORS At 3:0 5 on the second or fourth Tuesday of any month, one may see students hurrying to room 301 A. The appearance of the room excites much admiration. About it are grouped statues, clay models, and drawings of the students. A charmingly decorated table holds tea and cookies. The chairs, ar- ranged in a circle, look cozy and informal. What a fitting place in which to hold an Art Guild meet- ing! One ' s pleasure upon entering is increased by the gracious hos- pitality of Miss Hutchinson and the delightful humor of Mr. Geilen. At every meeting there is some special attraction. Recently speci- mens of the work of Professor Cizek and that of the eighth grade children in the McCosh School were exhibited. Miss Golden, who directs the work in the McCosh, was a guest. Mr. Geilen spoke about the exhibits, and the mem- bers of the Guild asked Miss Golden questions concerning her work. A little after four o ' clock the stu- dents reluctantly took their leave, sorry that two weeks must elapse before the next meeting. This was a typical Art Guild meeting. CLUBS 114 I, i THE CREATIVE WRITING CLUB MR. ROBERTS, SPOXSOR To the members of the Creative Writing Club, Tuesday, third hour, has been more than a free period, and more than just time spent at a club. It has been the period in which its members have given their imaginations sway to create an atmosphere in which all can share in the appreciation of the work each has done. Informality characterizes the Creative Writing Club. There are no officers, no dues, and no fixed procedures. At the meetings, the members group their chairs into a circle in a chatty sort of way. The discussions help the writer in seeing the good as well as the less effective parts of his writing. His audience is made up of interested members, who are just as eager to help one another as they are to receive help. Criticisms are often disagreed up- on, and the members feel free to speak their minds. And so, if you hear in the halls, Are you going to read anything this week at the meeting? ) ' ou ' ll know it comes from two members of the Creative Writing Club who are comparing notes. CLUBS 115 « GUI BONO MR. BRYE, SPONSOR Another June has come and an- other successful year of Cui Bono passes into Normal history. Cui Bono, be it remembered, was or- ganized in 190 8, as an honorary society the members of which should study different phases of psychology. In the past year interesting and varied programs have been given by different sections, the second and the fourth Thursday of each month; and the club gave a clever assembly program based upon the nature of observation. But the most notable event of the vear was a party given in honor of Miss Stella Vincent, on the occasion of both her return from her Sab- batical leave and her retirement from service. Miss Vincent, who had been a member of the faculty for seventeen vears, shared her world tour with the members of the club, by talking to them upon A Psychologist ' s View of People, Places, and Customs. In a charm- ing way she sketched distant lands, foreign peoples, and strange cus- toms; and in closing, she observed that the ideals, aspirations, hopes, joys, and sorrows of men are funda- mentallv the same the world over. CLUBS = 116 FOOTLIGHTS MISS CABELL, SPONSOR What is the intangible some- thing which draws the members of Foothghts and holds them in spite of twenty-three-hour weeks, sacrificed lunches, expensive books, after-school rehearsals, proble- matical audiences, parts of foot- man or maid-of-all work for souls at ease only in the role of hero or duchess? The answer is simple. The play ' s a part in some fascinating story. And such stories as these plays are! — witty, amusing, grace- ful, subtle, or poignant stories, without waste, without gush, at once real and thrilling. It pays to find ourselves involved in making such or such a story live. What if the audience be less numerous or less appreciative than we might wish to have it? The joy is in our part and what we can make out of It. Therefore, Footlights, no less than its elder sister, the Senior Dramatic Club, sticks. We know what we want and we pursue it with all the obstacles to success thrown in for good measure. When we achieve success, The play ' s the thing!

We enter room 200 expectantly. Shades are pulled down. Screens are shifted, as though one were turning back the pages of a fascin- ating story-book. The rhythmical, slow, emotional music of the Malayans hazily floats on the air perfumed with incense. Gradually it becomes louder and more emotional, until we are lost in a sea of dreams. Even the glow of two tiny candles seems far away. We feel that we recognize the strange pictures which are flashed upon the screen. We hear what the lecturer says, but not how she says it, for we are living in the Mayalan Peninsula. The delightful pictures end. Once again the throbbing of the music sweeps over us, as wc hear the song of the natives. The voices subside; and an oriental dancer holds us entranced with her simple, slow, rhythmical, swan- like movements. Then goodbyes are being said — and we are off for America. It is 4:15, time for the Geography Club to adjourn an- other meeting. CLUBS 120 THE HOME ECONOMICS CLUB MISS FREEMAN, SPONSOR The spirit of the Home Eco- nomics Club is service. No girl can work in home economics with- out giving unlimited service. She gives it unconsciously because of her enthusiasm in spreading the knowledge she has gained in her department. She loves her work because it has evolved from the most interesting and important in- stitution of all ages — the home. The time has gone when home economics girls merely learned to cook and sew. The home offers more problems, and home eco- nomics covers them all. The scien- tific aspect of this work is given in CLUBS the course of study. But a need has been felt for supplementing the work. Through the club, the girls become acquainted with cer- tain cultural subjects which are not included in the course, gain ex- perience in organizing and leading clubs, and strengthen the social bonds between their department and the rest of the College. This is the first year for the club, but the girls have responded beau- tifully. Each section in the depart- ment has been responsible for one program. Exhibits of chinaware, silverware, and linen have been held.  121 INDUSTRIAL ARTS CLUB MR. WILSON, SPONSOR To cement lirmly the fellowship of the Manual Training students with a bond which would advance the work of the department with- in the Chicago Normal College; and to allow these students to organize so that they might be able to invite educators, business men, and masters in the held of indus- trial arts as their guests, and thus establish professional contacts — such were the purposes of those who organized the Industrial Arts Club. One of the achievements of the Club has been an Industrial Arts librarv where the M T ' s mav study and read for pleasure. An- other of its achievements has been that of enabling the boys to hear talks by such men as Mr. Worst, head of the industrial arts work in the elementary schools, and Mr. Bauerafield, head of the industrial arts work in the senior high schools. These talks were inspirations for the accomplishment of wonders. The club plans, as a part of its pro- gram, trips of inspection to various industrial plants. With such men as Messers. Wilson, Thoren, Henke. and Helbing as advisors, the suc- cess of the club as a departmental and school organizat ion, is assured. CLUBS 122 « KINDERGARTEN CLUB MISS OLSON, SPONSOR Soft, sweet laughter and tan- talizing music drifting through the doors of Room 200 indicate that the Kindergarten Club is meeting. Although of comparatively recent origin, the Kindergarten Club is well launched on a unique course. It has already succeeded in making the kindergarten department one of the most unified departments in the College. This organization has a noble and two-fold purpose: To provide a medium of contact for students with a mutual interest, the educa- tion of young children, and to pro- vide opportunity for better under standing of this interest through exchange of experiences. Active membership in this club does not result in a visible, material benefit; its effect is mental and social, but none the less valuable. The organ- ization is still so young that it is not hampered by what people have done before. Its officers welcome suggestions and are ready to act upon those suggestions which seem practical. The Kindergarten Club is a signal, a signal that the kinder- garten department is wide-awake and eager to meet new situations. It is another laurel added to the laurels worn by kindergarten de- partment. CLUBS 123 « THE PHY ED CLUB MR. W ' YATT, SPONSOR The Phy-Ed Club binds into a closer unit all of the graduate and undergraduate men of the physical education department. Its aims are to solidify the various sections into one departmental unit and to create a friendly spirit of coopera- tion. Although the membership is small, compared to the size of the P. E. department, the boys are doing excellent work. To the younger members, especially, this club offers a gold mine of ex- perience through the contacts which it affords with the graduates who are now teaching. To the graduates, it furnishes a means through which they can continue to remain in close contact with that Normal School which gave them their start. The Phy-Eds furnish most of the men for Normal ' s athletic teams, and it has been largely through their efforts that Normal has been able to make a good show- ing in sports. Under the sponsor- ship of their faculty advisors, the boys learn many things about coaching, officiating at athletic meets, and promoting good sports- manship. In the past year, during Mr. Kripner ' s sabbatical leave, Mr. Wyatt has been in charge of the Club. CLUBS 124 « PIANO METHODS CLASS MISS PEICKERT, SPONSOR There are so many nice things to do during the hour set aside each week for club activities, that it is hard to decide what to choose. Some of the more practical minded girls have joined what is known as the Piano Methods Class. Member- ship in this group not only affords many interesting hours but also entitles one, upon her completing certain requirements, to a cer- tificate to teach class piano in the public schools. The Oxford and Meissner piano methods are stressed; and after a given amount of instruction, the members of the class are given the opportunity to apply these methods to teaching groups of children from the Parker Practice School. I sometimes wonder if we realize the dividends that accrue from such a sniall investment as one hour of time per week — plus a lit- tle energy! Our sponsor is Miss Peickert, who guides us over the rocky road of scales and triads to harmonious chords and beautiful melodies. Her enthusiasm is infectious, and one cannot help feeling that this is truly a worthwhile club activity. ' CLUBS 125 « f . POETRY CLUB MISS DEUPREE, SPONSOR . . . . talking to yourself, out on a country road, no houses and no hedges to conceal a lis- tener, Only yourself and heaven and the trees and a wind and a linnet; Talking to yourself in those long breaths that sing or hum or whistle fullness of the heart, Or the short breaths. Beats of the heart . . . . This is poetry! Unfortunately, one cannot al- ways have a country road, the heavens, a wind and a linnet. For Day with its many tasks a nd duties leaves little time for dreaming; and Night closes tired eyes and rests weary thoughts. Yet there is a re- treat for reveries, a retreat where an atmosphere almost as restful as the one the poet describes is cre- ated. Candlelight with flickering flame, A friendly circle, and soft voices that hum and sing ; A dreamy tranquility ■ — a sweet quietude — , An uplifting thought, and fra- grant reveries that permeate the soul .... This is Poetrv Club! CLUBS  126 « SENIOR SPECIAL CHOIR MISS GARTHK, SPONSOR The tiny baton is lifted, sus- pended so that it hushes chattering girls to silence — suspended so that it summons the goddess of music to preside at another session of Special Choir. Rehearsal begins. Sixty golden voices blend in now a crescendo, now just a tiny murmur of sound, wafting into nothingness. Now the baton sug- gests a pleading tone, then a swell- ing and defiant burst of song. Here a phrase becomes troublesome. It is gaunt and colorless; the tones are drab and speak of pain and sor- row. The phrase is repeated — it is better. Again, and once again! Ah! now it is music — stirring, ethereal music! Each repetition unfolds some new beauty; each repetition instils in each singing heart a more fervent desire to sing each song with that perfection which is breath-taking in its beauty. Alas the time is up! The music ceases; the holder of the baton is pleased. The walls of the room seem to be waiting for something — for more — ; but they are left with only the echoes. ' CLUBS  127 SENIOR DRAMATIC CLUB The symphony that is the Sen- ior Dramatic Club semester opens with the quiet dignified prelude that is the initiation. A back- ground of soft chords is formed by initiation gowns; thrilling arpeg- gios are supplied by lighted candles. Soft and clear comes the melody, the pledge, from the lips of the three Muses. It breaks off into gay little runs later, at the informal party, but the tone is calm, and the feeling exquisite. Then comes the quiet interval. Slight ripples, only, break the still- ness. But just as an audience recog- nizes the familiar introduction to a familiar phrase of the symphony, so the school knows that this pause precedes a great event. Suddenly it comes, the first hint of a great climax — tryouts for CLUBS 128 « SENIOR DRAMATIC CLUB the play. The watchers stir rest- lessly, and those most concerned become feverishly anxious. More hints — now it is the obvious ex- position of the theme, the an- nouncment of the play and the author. Then the theme is being developed, and more and more in- struments are being used. As time goes on, the movement becomes more rapid, the tones a little louder. All attention is centered on that one theme. The strong pieces, the cast, hold the center of attention; but the lighter instruments — the artists, the advertisers, the speakers — contribute the indispensable variations, the drive. And then the climax. It comes, this event that has been anticipated subtly and boldly, joyously and anxiously. The instruments have been perfectly pitched, the artists are at their best. The play is pre- sented. Finally, comes the aftermath. There is a sudden quiet. The audience settles to repose. The ex- citement is over. Now is the time that the musicians love. In gentle retrospect they review that tre- mendous tax on their nerves, their bodies, and their emotions. Quietlv thev play on, with only gentle variations from the simple, gliding rhvthm. : CLUBS  129 « 1 t r 1 f ' V f . T ' V . HuiiT H THE SURVEY CLUB MR. MILLER, SPONSOR On a bright sunny day the Survey Club met on the campus to do its first actual surveying, that of laA ' ing out the boundaries of a piece of land. Mr. Miller, our ad- visor, grouped us into surveyors, chainmen, and flagmen. He then told us the location of one corner- stone. We were to find the other three stones. We set the bob of the transit directlv over a peg driven in at the first cornerstone. To find the second, a surveyor set the transit at the proper angle, and the chainmen measured off the re- quired distance. One of the flag- men put his flag at this point, but he had to move it over because the chainmen went off the course. We drove a peg in here. We then used the same procedure to find the other cornerstones. Our fourth peg was within three feet of the location which was known only to Mr. Miller — a fine climax to our work. This surveying job is one of the activities sponsored by the Surve ' Club. CLUBS 130 « THE ORCHESTRA MR. HARVEY, SPONSOR The Muses laid the foundation for one of our organizations, when the gods gave to each of them one of the Arts. And so through the ages, the exquisite expressions of tones, rhythm, and harmony have been called music. One of the groups of students at Normal, who realize the worthiness of the gods ' opinion and foresight, interpret through the medium of various in- struments, the works of the mas- ters, and, to their appreciative audiences, release magic beauty. These students comprise the school orchestra. Thev meet each Tuesday, third hour, to practice for four occasions upon which they formally appear. These events are festivals for the presentation of beauty — the S. D. C. dramatic performances and the commence- ments. That the members of the orchestra play well is evinced b} their successful and heartily wel- comed appearances. The orchestra exists primarily not to play public- ly, but to bring together music lovers who play because they love to do so and because to them the interpreting of beautiful music is as delightful as the untangling of a m ' sterv. CLUBS  131 « THE STUDENT COUNCIL MRS. MUELLER, MR. BRANO.NL MISS ROBINSON, ADVISORS The Student Council exercises much influence over our College, because it is the governing body of the Student Self-Government As- sociation. We are all members of this association; and we send representatives, our section chair- men, to the meetings. The Council maintains standing committees — the Judiciary Com- mittee, the Social Hour Commit- tee, the Book Exchange Commit- tee, the Hall Duty Committee, the Lunch Room Committee, and the Seal Committee. Only recently the Council inaugurated the Stu- dent Daily, with which every one at Normal is familiar. The Christ- mas festival with its Santas, its Christmas stockings, its Christmas GOVERNING ORGANIZATION  132 « trees, and its candy sticks; and the spring festival, with its gay pansies, its violets and tulips, its flower girls, and its cherry blossom queens, are both under the juris- diction of the Council. The faculty representatives and the chairmen of the student sections find that the meetings of the Council are a channel for free intercourse among themselves. The faculty sponsors discuss freely, and with malice toward none, what grievances they have against the students, and what plans and helpful suggestions they have for the students. The students ' chairmen, likewise, pre- sent their grievances, their plans, and their constructive criticism, unhesitatingly. The meetings are very lively. A visitor would be amazed and amus- ed at arguments pro and con the question of the day. Each chairman has secured the opinion of her section, and this opinion she has brought before the council. The Council does not always act the agreeable friend, however, for unforseen contradictions are heap- ed upon the head of the bold in- stigator. Then the discussion be- gins in earnest. Patrick Henry ' s fiery exclamation, Give me Lib- erty or give me Death, is rivalled by the sincere exclamations made by a staunch supporter of the opinion of her section, at one of these meetings. The Student Coun- cil of the Chicago Normal College is another Continental Congress in the making. GOVERNING ORGANIZATION 133 THE 1931 EMBLEM A table with live or six girls sit- ting around it. Chairs standing at various angles and piled with man- uscript in many handwritings — manuscript with every type of write-up from accounts of club activities to impressions of special occasions and pictures of section groups. One of the girls, busy with her seatwork, is cutting a para- graph from a paper here and a sec- tion from a paper there, and pin- ning them in sequence onto a blank sheet, so that the work of some one who is copying corrected write-ups will be lightened. Silence, with only the sound of pens scratching, is broken by murmurs of, Say, this is well written, or What do I copy next, or My pen is run- ning dry. Sometimes something special breaks the seeming pjaciditv of the scene. There was the evening when a pigeon investigatingly poked his head in at an open win- dow and hopped in to see who was staying so long after school hours. If the pigeon had behaved himself and flown out without our having had to enlist the efforts of the sweeper to chase him out, he could have gone over to another building and seen another group of people. But the pigeon didn ' t see the members of the Art Staff cutting and pasting the pictures of the club groups or the seniors, in just the way they should appear on the pages of the Emblem; or the editor conferring with the business man- ager as to whether more or fewer pages in, perhaps, the humour sec- tion, would make the cost a great deal different from what she had figured that it would be.

THE EMBLEM 193M932 PUBLICATIONS _  137 « EMBLEM UNDERSTUDIES This year ' s Emblem has been produced notwithstanding a num- ber of innovations, one of which has been the staff ' s having under- studies. An understudy, ladies and gentlemen, is one who assists an editor, and who stands a mighty good chance of having the position of that editor on the next staff. Now to relate some of the pleasures of an understudy. Many a night when Spring has called us outdoors, and when to play tennis we had planned, we have been caught by a superior edi- tor and told, Tonight we have copy to get ready for the typists. Meekly then up to 307 we have gone; and there we have written yarns about clubs, sections, and teams; copied laboriously; and counted unnumberable words. All this we have done, not to mention the myriads of trips we have taken from 307, the literary staff office, to 3 09 A, the art staff of- fice, and down to 107A, the main office. Now it ' s all over, and we ' re happy; so we bid you all adieu, hoping to greet you next June as editors. PUBLICATIONS 13 8 « STUDENT DAILY Born of the need for a medium of self - expression, constructive criticism, creative art, and presen- tation of current issues that would be uncensored by the faculty, the Student Daily made its appearance in the front west corridor of the College, the latter part of last semester. Each morning one hardly dares brave the crowds that gather to read the bits of wisdom, laugh- ter, and song that appear on this three-feet-by-six-feet board. This journalistic innovation has become, for its many readers, a means of enjoyment, and for its contribu- tors, an outlet of self-expression in prose, poetry, and art. Through the Daily some students have sent their glorious message of School Spirit to the student body; others have contributed a decorated copy of a Sandburg poem. On the Daily have appeared condemnations of existing injustices, and suggestions for bettering them; a request that Normal have a fencing team; humorous excerpts from the Liter- ary Digest; and an attractive in- vitation to the Geography Club. Thus the Student Daily, with its variety of offerings, is becoming the shrine of the self-expressionist, the news gatherer, the reformer, the artist, and the jovial laugh seeker. PUBLICATIONS  139 « THE NORMALITE MISS GAVIN, MISS BRESNAHAN. ADVISORS The Normalite is out! Traffic is a steady stream to the Normahte office during lunch hour on Mon- day. There the air is filled with cries of Twenty-five for Kg. 3, Eighteen for 612! Papers are counted, folded, and distributed with lightening quickness. Not since Deadline Night, the previous Thursday, has the oiSce seen such activity. Typewriters banging; voices raised and lower- ed; reporters in various writing at- titudes; editors conferring with the faculty adviser; and every- where yellow copy paper — some sheets covered with scribbles; others blank and awaiting a re- porter ' s inspiration; some lying forlornly in the wastebasket, dis- PUBLICATIONS  140 « carded because it has failed to give rein to some writer ' s genius — that ' s Deadline Night! A cry, All out! rends the air. Five o ' clock already? says the editors as they scurry about with last - minute finishing touches. Anxiously they leave the scene of their labors, convinced that they haven ' t enough copy, fearful lest a certain last-minute story won ' t materialize. Humorous yet not untinged by pathos is the scene at the printer ' s on Friday afternoon, as the page editors with the chief engage in the process of making-up the dummy. This assembly story is too long for this column and too short for this one, wails one individual. Another is frantically looking for a bit of yellow paper which has been scrapped in the galley - cut- ting. Why that ' s the whole point of the story! she cries. The afternoon wears away — also the journalists ' energy, as headlines refuse to fit and vo- cabularies are exhausted. It is long past the dinner hour when tasks are finally finished. On Saturday the editor-in-chief comes to scan the page proof. Again on Monday she gives it final inspection. Lovingly she caresses its smooth face and leaves it to the tender mercies of the printer.

You are nearing the last lap of that all-important race you began three years ago. Perhaps you feel regret as you realize that your Normal College days will soon be over and that the many associa- tions you have formed will soon be severed. But such sadness is need- less if you remember that there is a haven for every Normal College graduate, in the Chicago Normal Alumni Association. Here the friendships and the activities that have meant so much to you for the past three years may be continued as long as you care to remain a member of the Association. Besides the social events that as members you will enjoy, are topics con- sidered bv the association, which will prove a help to you profes- sionally. We take this opportunity to ask you to join us. The following are some of the successful events which we have sponsored in the past year: May 17, 193 0— Teachers ' Day at Normal, from 9:00 A. M. to 6:00 P. M. Thirty-one schools participated in our program, and many more offered numbers which could not be accepted because of our lack of space and time. June 14, 1930 — Outing at the Sand Dunes. December 12, 1930 — Annual meeting held in connection with the Senior Dramatic Club dinner and play, Chicago Noniicil Aliiuiiii Association ALUMNI 146 « SATIRE 147 A 1931 AESOP ' S FABLE It ' s six o ' clock, Sue, called someone. Six o ' clock, mused Sue, it seems as thought I have just fallen asleep. With the de- liberation of one who has bankers ' hours, Sue prepared for school. When she was ready to leave, she glanced at her program once more to assure herself that she had taken all of her books. A look of sur- prise crossed her face. Mother ' s query she answered with a few syl- lables — Have psychology this morning — can ' t be late — Goodbye! Down the street went Sue speed- ily. A myriad of thoughts re- volved in her brain with the same speed. What should I ride — the ' L ' or the street car? If I take both, I shall get to school on time. Upon reaching the corner. Sue boarded the first street car which came. While amusing herself by watching the people on the car, she suddenly became aware that the conductor was calling, Far as we go. Now she remembered that she had again carelessly boarded the May Street car instead of the Cley Street car. There was nothing to do but wait for another. Finally Sue reached the ' L ' sta- tion in time to catch the fifth car of the last south-bound express. She found, much to her distress, that this car was crowded, and de- cided that she would run for the fi.rst car of the train at the next station. Williams Street, called the motorman as the train started off again. There she was — missing the very train she had just been on. In a short time Sue boarded an- other train and arrived at school just in time to be late. But thanks to Wingfoot Rubber Heels, Sue tip-heeled to her seat in time to answer Here, because the teach- er ' s back was turned. Moral: Never say die.

She had just reached that ripe old age of 18, when blue-eyed, winsome blondes decide their fu- tures. There was Dick, there was Joe, and then there was dear old Bob; all these names spelled Mar- riage Soon. Ah, but Betty spurned them all, lor she had am- bitions — she was going to follow her calling. Betty had decided; ever since she had taught her six- year-old brother that 6 plus 9 made 15, she had known she was des- tined to be a teacher. Just think! she of all people was to teach inno- cent, endearing bits of protoplasm. The family announced its deci- sion that Betty should go to a nor- mal college, and Betty was thrilled. Oh! Oh! a really and truly col- lege! Little Betty examined school catalogues critically. It did not take her long to choose her school, for she knew what she wanted. She then made her preparations, select- ed a room in a dormitory, found a room-mate, packed her trunks, and — off she went. After hours and hours on a dusty train, Betty reached the Big City. Her trim little feet stepped off the train and into a waiting cab, and she was whisked off and soon deposited — luggage and all — before an impressive building. Shyly she glanced about her — but saw only strangers. If only her room-mate were — Hello! There you are Honey! Oh, my dear, I am so glad to see you! Such was the meeting of Betty Coed and Martha The Same. A jolly time was had for two whole days. Was this college? asked Betty. Br-r-ing-a-ling-a-ling, the alarm clock sang. It ' s time to get up — you have classes today. To classes Betty and Martha went, and what classes they were! A group of girls with long hair, short hair, and freckles, and twice as many men, who were good looking and otherwise, welcomed them into their fold. Was this college? Betty Coed and Martha The Same are to be formally initiated into the order of Sigma Alpha Delta on Thursday, read the announce- ment in the Weakly Gazette. This must be college! Alas, poor Betty! The absent- minded professors forgot every- thing but the homework, which meant staying up until 2 A. M. every morning. This WAS col- lege ! SATIRE  149 « PLACES WE KNOW The Greenhouse: The glass- roofed building in which we real- ize that we acted wisely in choosing teaching rather than gardening. The Library: A room in which are collected books for us to look at, feel of, and pay overdue fines on. The Conversation Room : A retreat in which we can let our tongues run loose and must shout to make ourselves heard. The Main Entrance: The en- trance to be used only when we ar- rive at school on time. SPECIES OF COLLEGE STUDENTS The Freshman — Babes in the Woods, envying the Seniors.

In fact, they cover every- thing that could have any influence whatever on the men ' s part of the school. Although the M.A.A. is governed by a board of control consisting partly of members of the faculty, this board does not in any way attempt to dictate the policy of the association, but merely guides its footsteps and al- ways welcomes suggestions. All awards, letters, and sweaters are given out through this organiza- tion. In short, the M.A.A. passes the one important test of any or- ganization. It is real. MEN ' S ATHLETICS 164 « FOOTBALL 6-23-37-44! Normal ' s first football team swung into action! And what a team! With a back- field composed of Dutch Ritt- meyer as full back, Steve Taylor and Al Wolf as half backs, Barney Cohen and Wally Sommers as quarter-backs, and such men as Johnson, Jurka, Burke, Everson, Casey, O ' Brien, Bell, Smith, Egan, Larson, Rosen, Kap- lan, Beasley, and Baxter, changing off on the line, Normal had a team unequalled in spirit. Losing game after game because of lack of ex- perience and reserve strength, they came back each time and fought with a vigor which displayed the true Normal spirit. They played important games with Wheaton, Lisle, and Elmhurst. To whom is the school indebted for its success in producing this team? To none other than Mr. Wyatt. Coach Wyatt is heart and soul in love with the game and the boys to whom he teaches it. Night after night he was out on the field building up the boys, physically, mentally, and morally, and shar- ing their failures.

These five men played basketball in a brainy, clever fashion, and scored their points through real team work and passing-and-shoot- ing ability. Although they occasionally showed a slump, they played good enough ball to win six straight games, no mean feat. Up to February, 1931, the team had as its coach John Ivers, a man who knew his basket-ball as onlv one who is a successful player can possibly know it. In February Coach Wyatt, who became mentor when Mr. Ivers was given a junior high school, had the tough task of making a good team out of ma- terial with which he was un- familiar. To make a team in two months is quite a task, but to make one in two or three days is a super- human assignment. Such was Mr. Wyatt ' s job; his results were to his credit. MEN ' S ATHLETICS 166 « BASEBALL The Chicago Normal baseball team of 1931, because of the fact that few of the men had had much previous training, had a hard struggle. But our able coach, Bob Wyatt, through his teaching and his frequent practice periods, is lay- ing the foundation for a really big team. In spite of our handicaps at the outset, the boys have daunt- lessly met their opponents, Con- cordia, Crane, Joliet, and Morton. Captain Henry Fisher held down third base and led the team through victory and defeat. Wally Som- mer served as shortstop, and did his best to show up Babe Ruth. Turner served as pitcher at a num- ber of games. At first and second were Bill Mommsen and Alex- ander William Burke. Two mem- bers of the team who did uncom- monly good work were Si Kass as catcher, and Vince Conroy at right field. This team is unusual in the history of Normal baseball, in that it was chiefly composed of M.T ' s. Every member of the team, with the exception of one, is eligible to pla} ' next season and . . . coming events cast their shadows before. MEN ' S ATHLETICS  167 tf« t TRACK AND TENNIS The fastest men at Normal. This phrase is just another synonym for the track team. Beginning with but a few veterans, Coach Wyatt has developed an organiza- tion that is one of the best teams ever formed in the College. Win- ning and placing in the high jump, dashes, broad jump, and middle distances can almost be called a habit; and the way the newer members are developing promises well for the future. While the boys of this year ' s tennis team may not have kept up the standard of the teams that have preceded them, no one can say that they haven ' t had the true Normal spirit. There were none of last year ' s men to build a team from, so Coach Wyatt had to start off with green material, and very green it was. But after a few weeks of steady practice in the gym- nasium, the men were all in mid- season shape. Though they have had no outstanding player to take the place of Dave Barder, they have pulled through the season well. MEN ' S ATHLETICS 168 « INTRA MURAL SPORTS Formerly, intra - mural sports, which are particularly approved by progressive educators because more students are able to par- ticipate in them than in conference games, were engaged in at Normal only by the girls. This year Coach Wyatt inaugurated intra - mural sports for men. Eagerly following their leader, the men of the school laid plans, selected an intra-mural board from among the sections in the various departments, and drew up a program of sports. As these sports were inaugurated in the fall, the first one selected by the board was a game called touch football. Volley ball, baseball, swimming, track, and other sports are being, or will be, engaged in. The men entered into these sports with much enthusiasm; and many hot and closely contested battles have been fought before one team could be declared winner. The men are no longer envious of the girls. In- tra - mural sports for men seem now to be firmly imbedded in the regular routine at Normal. And nothing is better than such sports for creating a school spirit. MEN ' S ATHLETICS  169 ARTS GYMNASIUM GYMNASIUM 170 « OCCASIONS  171 « E. WARHANICK R. KIRSCHTEN QUALITY STREET Barrie has said, If you have charm, nothing else matters. Par- ticularly charming is his comedy, Quality Street. And charming- ly was this Barrie play given, under the direction of Miss Louise Jacobs, as the sixth-ninth offering of the Senior Dramatic Club. In this little country town, wrote Barrie, there is a satisfac- tion about living in Quality Street which even religion cannot give. In the soft-toned blue and white room of the Throssel home in Quality Street, the mid-Victorian maids, the Misses Phoebe and Susan, entertain the dashing Mr. Valen- tine Brown, who, after suggesting the investment of their tiny for- tune, joins the British army to fight in the Napoleonic Wars. Ten years later, when he has lost a hand in battle and been decorated for valor, he returns to discover that through his ill-advice the Throssels have lost their fortune and have been obliged to turn their home into a private school. It is now that he falls deeply in love with the exquisite Miss Phoebe, whom he describes as an old - fashioned garden that Englishmen love best because they have known it longest. DRAMA 172 « THE ROMANTIC YOUNG LADY A performance of professional tone was that of the S.D.C. ' s spring play, The Romantic Young Lady, by the noted Spanish dramatist, G. Martinez Sierra, pro- duced under the capable direction of Miss Louise Jacobs. The very atmosphere of the Castellanos fam- ily and the naturalness of Sierra ' s characters became doubly charm- ing through the faithful interpre- tation of the cast. As the curtain opened and the action began to unfold, the audience settled back snugly. But things began to happen, when a novelist ' s hat, in blowing away, in- itiated a series of delicate situations from which there was no escape for the young lady, except through fainting. Then those who had settled back, began to lean for- ward. In the last act, the complica- tions — sheep dogs, slippers, and Spanish dancers — were deftly re- moved. Then the novelist and his new secretary — the romantic young lady — were deservedly hap- py, because of the timely influence of a grande dame of the old school who, though apparently asleep, had heard the proposal and startled her granddaughter into accepting it by ejaculating, My dear child, do sav ' yes ' or ' no ' ! DRAMA = 173 CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL All ye who come, throw oft the solemn mien behttint the student teacher and become young again, yea, even as they whom ye shall teach! Thus reads the proclamation concerning the Christmas festival. It is invisible to all who have lived a thousand years in their less-than- twenty on earth. It is visible to all who have saved their sixteenth year and are spending it carefully and wisely throughout their lives. Thus is proclaimed the spirit of the festival — the spirit of youth triumphant, youth joyful, youth primitively abandoned to civilized pleasure. The gay, the various, the brilliantly colored costumes are a delight to eyes still bright with youth. The grand march satisfies the youthful desire to be part of a show. The awarding of prizes is anticipated with the eagerness of childhood, and spontaneously ap- plauded as the chimneys, the knights, and the choir singers are honored. And the dancing — that is the outpouring of youth. After two short hours, laughing voices call greetings for the com- ing holidays. Ended is the annual and traditional Christmas festival. FESTIVAL 174 SPRING FESTIVAL Like an artist ' s palette, it seemed, with its myriad splotches of color — gay reds, soft blues, springlike pinks and greens. The Arts gymnasium was transformed into a fairyland by the annual spring festival. Normal ' s note of welcome to the Spring Spirit. Animated by the pulsating strains of music filling the air, the palette became a rainbow, alive, vibrant; and the grand march was on. Dainty Chinese maidens tripped down the center of the floor, their sprays of cherry blos- soms bringing thoughts of spring- rime in far Cathay. Yellow-garbed flower venders sang Who will buy my violets? ; red- winged black- birds fluttered by; in stately pro- cession, white-robed maidens car- ried the daisy chain; a wedding part} ' , romantic symbol of spring, slowly marched to the strains of Lohengrin; flowers — some bobbing gaily in flower pots, some growing in gardens, some prim in nosegays — all bloomed in gay profusion. Soon the last group wended its way down the floor. The grand march was over. Then into the dance they swung, these gay revel- lers, smiling-eyed, light-hearted, in glorious tribute to Spring! FESTIVAL  175 « CARL SANDBURG It was on January 13 that Carl Sandburg came to us and left us an unforgettable memory. He was a young man, broad shouldered. He wore a gray suit. His hands were gray-white and large and thin. His hair was silver and kept falling into his eyes. His face was sensitive, and we knew that he had been hurt more than he deserved — with the kind of hurts that shock one and then leave one bewildered. His eyes closed every once in a while, and we won- dered what he saw. Maybe it was slow-moving pictures of smoke- stacks, river boats, people, butter- flies, Chicago — he loves that word, Chicago. As he looked at us, — and he was considerate of both sides of the audience — he gave a little jerk of his head. It was as though someone had touched one of his sensitive soul secrets, and as though he were afraid of sneers and laughs behind his back. His voice was mellow — some- how they ought to preserve that voice, we thought, and let it sound through other days even as it is sounding now. He was humorous, but his was a whimsical humor. He made us laugh, but we felt that he laughed only at things children do, or maybe at snowflakes on a grimy window-ledge. Seated, he sang. That picture of him, with his guitar resting on his knees, is something to linger over and love. As his strumming be- gan, his voice rolled out like bub- bles from a child ' s bubble-pipe. The words tumbled and jumped at us and got caught in the corners of our thoughts, and we smiled and loved him and wished that this ex- quisite moment would never pass. Of course it did, and he left us with the gracious words: Your faces have been kind to me. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. CARL SANDBURG  176 « GRACE CIACK, CHAIRMAN ' On with the dance! Let joy be unconfined — No sleep till morn, when youth and pleasure meet To chase the glowing hours with flying feet. Byron PROM PICTURES Anticipation ' s hour is done — The stage is set — the dance begun! Tunes of the Piper call again, Youth follows in an endless chain. Subtle hues of colored light Harmonized with the soft spring night. Syncopation sets the pace For happy feet that love to race. The mood has changed — the blar- ing halts, And dancers sway to strains of the waltz. Too fast the glowing hours have run — The curtain ' s down — the dance is done. PROM  177 X •-, -:.

CLASS DAY  178 « COMMENCEMENT Probably the most beautiful and inspiring occasions at the Normal College are the commencements. The processional of black-gowned graduates, their faces glad yet sol- emn, is impressive. The music is lovely. There isn ' t a stir in the audience as Mr. Laughlin rises to introduce the speaker, always a person high in the professional world which the graduates are to enter. He or she usually speaks upon some phase of teaching, and presents not minute details of theory, but rather the bigness of the profession. The graduates, listening, resolve to continue their education, so that they may give their best to the children they are to teach. The speaker concludes his ad- dress. The black-gowned gradu- ates rise to receive their diplomas. As they file up on the stage, stu- dents of the Chicago Normal Col- lege, they experience a great sense of having done something well. And as they file down on the other side, teachers of Chicago, they re- solve to do well, and with pleasure, the work which they have chosen. Then, feelingly, they sing their class song, their farewell to Nor- mal. COMMENCEMENT  179 UNIVERSITY ACTIVITIES The green and white of Chicago Normal College has attracted a bright rainbow of colors from some of the foremost universities and colleges in the country, as they are represented by our UT group. There is the orange and blue of Illinois, the purple and white of Northwestern, the scarlet and blue of DePaul, the maroon of Chicago, the old gold and blue of Notre Dame, the blue of Michigan, and the red of Wisconsin. Loyola, Clark, Coe, and Howard, also, are represented by us, the largest uni- versity group to be assembled at Normal. You will find us UT ' s influential members of many of the organiza- tions and activities of the school. We have found interests in the Spe- cial Choir, the Glee Club, the Nor- malite staff, the Creative Writing Club, the Mathematics Club, and athletics. We have played leading roles in both the S.D.C. ' s produc- tions. One of us has been instru- mental in organizing a new dra- matic organization, The Thes- pians. We have been seen partak- ing of tea, coffee, cookies, and sand- wiches at such an occasion as the Fellowship bridge tea, and walking off with laurels from the Christmas and spring festivals because of our clever costumes. Not only have we shown our in- terest in the extra-curricula oppor- tunities, but we have shown our appreciation of everything else Normal has been able to offer us, especially since the completion of the new junior high school on the campus, in which we have spent much of our time and reaped great benefits from the contacts we have been able to make with the instruc- tors. Yes, we U. T. ' s belong to Normal. UNIVERSITY  180 « MEMORIES BY VIRGIE SHAW Just a spot on the campus. Grass beginning to turn green; the hockey field sprouting baseball fans; the tennis courts again bring- ing forth worn nets of string, rope, and rags; acrobatic P. E. ' s killing each other and enjoying do- ing it; several L. M. ' s wildly play- ing jump with ropes borrowed from teary-eyed Parker children; four scholarly U. T. ' s reclining with their heads pillowed upon books, and serenely watching the clouds above; three K. G. ' s loung- ing on the steps and dreamily dis- cussing last night; one H. A. lean- ing from a bridge window and sweetly greeting another down be- low by gently dropping a book on her head; ten M. T. ' s hanging in and out of a loudly chortling automobile. Thoughtfully noting all these familiar sights through half-closed eyes, one realizes, with pangs of regret, that only too soon these glorious spring days will become mere memories — memories stored up in a dusty corner of one ' s brain, covered over by countless new ac- tivities and thoughts, memories brought to light only by sudden meetings with old friends, or by chance stumblings over old snaps, old red-streaked exam papers, old intimate notes — . Tenderly, one thinks of all the good, firm friend- ships formed — the happy, com- radely acquaintances made — the gay times had — the clever tricks pulled off on profs — the dumb mis- takes made — the periods of stress and worry just before warning time — the moments of great won- der and unbelieving joy at unex- pected honors — . And as one thinks, the wind blows through one ' s hair — the smiling sun warms one ' s face — and softly closes one ' s eyes — in happy dreaming — .
