As this issue of the Beacon goes to press we are doing our best here at Cleve- land to reconcile ourselves to a very heavy loss. Our esteemed Principal, Mr. Hoch, is giving up his work in the schools to enter business. Were lVlr. Hoch an ordinary man, it would not mean among the notable connected with the the past, our Prin- so much to us, but men who have been St. Louis schools in cipal stands out very conspicuously. His real worth will become more and more apparent as the years go on. In his dealings with the boys and girls and the men and women of his school, Mr. Hoch was a gentleman in all of kindliness and sympathetic humanity that the word gentleman implies. We always knew just where to find him. Many thousand Cleveland boys and girls will look back with happy appreciation to their association with him. Cleveland will be dear to them because with the name of C-rover Cleveland High School they always linked the name of Mr. Hoch. As he is leaving us a tew facts con- cerning his life as a teacher will certainly be of interest to all loyal Cleveland stu- dents. For this reason we have published the following: Mr. Hoch was born at Mendon, Mich- igan. Upon graduating from the Men- don High School, he entered the Univer- sity of Michigan. He began teaching at the Mendon High School when he had received his degree. After having taught at Racine College, Racine, Wisconsin, and at the Joliet Township High School, Page Sin: S Joliet, Illinois, he came to St. Louis, where he was appointed as a teacher in the modern language department of Cen- tral High. His merits were soon discov- ered and he was made acting assistant principal there. On June 8, l9l5, the Board of Edu- cation appointed lVIr. Hoch principal of Grover Cleveland High School. The unfortunate Central students ex- pressed their deep regret in their next publication of the High School News. They published the following statement: Mr, Hoch holds a high place in the hearts of all Centralites and we miss him a great deal. -and upon his appoint- ment to the principalship of Cleveland High they said: It is but a just reward of his excel- lent work, and his devotion and loyalty to it. He fully deserves his rewardf' 'iMr. Hoch fully merits the high opin- ion the Board has of him and its appre- ciation of his invaluable services. Students, can the regrets of the Cen- tralites compare with ours? How can they, when we have been under his direct supervision as our Principal? Although they regretted the loss of Mr. Hoch, he is much closer to us, and it is a great deal harder for us to part with him. With these thoughts in mind we shall call this issue of the Beacon, Mr, Hoch's Resig- nation Number. We have lost not only our Principal, but also several of our teachers. It is most unfortunate to have so many efficient people leaving Cleveland within a short time. ls, .A I lgyrrco THE BEHCUN . J R Q 1971! ihlllj. NX all Mr. Guy has given up his work in the schools, to take up a position with the Certain-teed Products Company. Mr. Wallace is with the Zelnicker Supply Company. Mr. Cochran is in Sewickly, Pennsyl- vania, with the Anderson Auto Com- pany. OPPORTUNITY! Seniors, have you made the most of your opportunity? Have you been bene- fited by your schooling so far? If not, you have no one to blame, but yourselves. The opportunities were there, it was yours to do your best. Now, as you are leaving school, some of you will most likely be thinking about a successful means of earning a livelihood and will start out immediately assuming the responsibilities of the business world. Others will be more fortunate, in that they will be able to continue their education at higher inistitutions of learning. Whatever you do, remember to make the most of your opportunities. Success to youl THANKS. We wish to thank Miss Sullivan, Miss Caplan and Mr. Slater for the many favors they have shown us in compiling this issue of the Beacon. We also take this opportunity to thank Mr. Beers and his typewriting classes for their co-operation. All students and teachers, who have shown any interest in this issue of the Beacon are assured of our hearty appre- ciation. In spite of the fact that we were hand- icapped by a late start, we have been able to edit the Beacon at this early date. This was accomplished only by the ready and willing co-operation of the staff. The spirit shown by the staff and the students in getting ads at the right time, was certainly remarkable. At first it was not an established fact that we would have a Beacon this time. Develop- ments had to be awaited in the securing of ads, before we were safe to go ahead. It was not until after the students got their part of it past the danger mark, that we could begin. From then on things went smoothly, with Mr. Frye's guidance and each department of the staff working with a spirit of perseverance that can hardly be equalled. For the reasons just stated. then, the editor takes great pleasure in thanking our sponsor, without whose guid- ance and advice a book of this kind could not be compiled and issued, and also the staff for their faithful services and hearty co-operation. ATHLETICS. Support your athletic teams! You want winning teams and yet you are not doing your best to develop them. You know there are some people who will knock constantly and then expect improvement, without making any real ef- fort to assist. On the other hand, there are people, who will see bad points that need improve- ment and will go to work and try to rem- edy them. We seemto be lacking in the latter. Maybe it's because we don't know how to go about getting winning teams. A little explanation might set us right on that. Well, those of you who have witnessed our teams in action against other teams are well aware of the fact, that they do their best. You also realize that we have very efhcient coaches, who do their ut- most to develop winning teams. Having disposed of these two sources, we'll tackle the question from a stand- point that concerns you. Do youicome out for athletics? The school is full of material, which, with a little training, could be worked into excellent teams. But what can be done when this material doesn't come out to be trained? Any- body with a healthy body, who has the time is laying down on the job if he is not out for the various teams. Are you buying tickets for the games? Your financial support will go a long way in providing for sufhcient means of train- ing, which in turn is responsible for win- ning teams. Are you coming to the games and root- Page Seven 'E fx-7,51 ' E-:X-7,55 riff? l ,iff l CDN Burn sun-su . z ing with all your might for your team? It is very inspiring to a team to see a big audience of rooters, but that isn't all. It's your clear, ringing cheers that drive the necessary impetus into a team to enable it to get that yard for the winning touch- down or that telling shot in basketball or that necessary single in the ninth inning, that wins the game. These things are just mentioned as food for thought. They are not meant to drive you. You are to take the initiative. WELCOME TO THE NEW TEACHERS.

The printing of this issue marks the close of the fifth year of the Beacon's existence. Five happy, succesful years! Throughout this period it has been a fun- damental aim to realize the highest pos- sible standard of excellence consistent with the widest possible democracy. These pages have belonged to Cleveland boys and girls that here they might record a partial history of their own thinking and doing. We trust that we may be pardoned if we point to the success in the business of publishing the book as indicative of suc- cess in other respects. When, with the school less than hve months old, it was urged by the pupils that we have a publi- cation here at Cleveland, they were laugh- ed at by some, for it was not possible in a new school. However, when the hrst number of the Beacon appeared in June, l9l6, with S765 in advertising and le gffjn lQlS:fIl rqgtf, Q.-X . I HE BEHCDN ' XJ neon: semzia. . a paid circulation of 950, that could easily be explained by pointing to the novelty of the thing. lt won't happen again, they said. Since the appearance of the first number, two numbers have been pub- lished each year, except in I9I9, when it was made impossible by the closing of the schools for a long period on account of the inffuenza epidemic. No issue has failed to pay for itself. For the issue of January, l920, the boys and girls secured advertising to the amount of 551,083 and, in a school of not quite fifteen hundred pupils, bought over fourteen hundred copies of the book. Already we have secured for this issue more than 51.200 in advertising and we are planning to print eighteen hundred copies. This brief review of the business his- tory of the Beacon is given because of what it signifies. From the beginning, Cleveland boys and girls have been push- ing this venture of theirs with a tremendous enthusiasm. If anyone doubts the exist- ence of such a thing as Cleveland spirit. let him take note of what it has done for our book. Our former Superintendent of Instruction, Mr. Ben Blewett, who for many years prior to his becoming Super- intendent was Assistant Superintendent, was an earnest believer in the value of voluntary student activities in the High School. Vve are confident that the value depends first of all and ultimately upon the attitude of the Principal. If lVlr. Herman F. Hoch, our retiring Principal, will be remembered by Cleveland pupils for one thing more than anything else it will be for his fine understanding of this very thing. What could a student ven- ture like this do but thrive under the kind- ly appreciation and inspiring enthusiasm of this man? The success of the Beacon, therefore. becomes part of the record of achievement of Cleveland High School boys and girls. And upon every page of that record are evidences of the fine personality of Mr. Hoch. As he leaves us he takes with him our most earnest wishes for his happiness. ASSUMING RESPONSIBILITY. Among the good qualities which a good citizen must possess, probably the most necessary is that of assuming responsibil- ity, or holding himself responsible for as- signed tasks. It is, no doubt, considered the most valuable because it is absolutely essential to success. Not that success can be attained by this quality alone, but it does play an important part in the achieve- ment. Take for instance, the citizen in his business relations. If he intends to make a success of his business, must he not hold himself responsible for his assigned work. see to it that it is done, that it is done well, and that it is done in the time allotted him? Or may he neglect his work, and do it when it is convenient for him, or leave it undone, and still be successful? He need not foster the hope of being ad- vanced if he continues to act thus. The same case applies to a man holding a political office. If he is given an office it is his duty to assume the responsibility for the work of that office. He cannot hope to retain his position, when time after time he neglects the public needs and at- tends to his own affairs. This quality, however, is necessary not only for good citizenship in the business world but also for good school-citizenship. Work assigned in the school-room does not differ from work assigned in the office, so far as the duty to see that it is done is concerned. Then why should lessons so often be considered secondary matters which should give place to personal af- fairs? Why should they be neglected or done carelessly so frequently any more than other work? Nothing exercises so direct an influence in shaping a man's future as his early training. lf, while a student he neglects his work, he cannot be successful when he goes out into the world, because he has never developed this valuable quality of assuming responsibility. If, on the other hand, he does develop this quality to the full, he will not only attain success at school, but will continue to reap the re- wards of his merit after he goes out into the world.

She was a I pretty and popular senior, 3 ff 5 always at the dances, hikes and class parties. She liked all these pleasures but didn't like work. Now don't think by that description that she was really lazy but just a little spoiled as people will be sometimes. Three times a year Groverton High issued a school magazine as many other schools did everywhere else. Support was what the maga- zine needed. There were many ways to support it. There were the liter- ature, the music, and the athletic sections. The staff needed jokes and frolics and last but not least money to publish the book. All those things were not so easily done as they were written about and, of course, they required work. One evening after a plea had come for more money this senior went home with really good intentions. She, too, was going to help get the money. She was getting rather en- thusiastic about it and was about ready to leave the house when the 'phone rang. Hello, Pat, that you ? It was a friend of Patty's who had come from college the year before and was not at all interested in high school affairs. There is a crowd going out to the club for dinner and then to a little theatre party. 'Tm afraid I can't, Jim. I was going to be busy tonight. You! Busy! Oh, Pat, forget it! Come on. Keen time. Page Forfy Oh, all right. The business can wait. So at 5:30 they left. jim was right. They did have a good time and as usual she was very popular. Everyone was older than Patty and cared nothing about Groverton High. So nothing was mentioned about the magazine and Pat's busi- ness was completely forgotten. Then came the theatre party. Between pictures a four minute man spoke. It seemed like old war times to have him speaking. But Patty did not hear him. He was speaking about some relief fund and she wasn't listening at all. But suddenly something caught her ear. Service is the rent we pay, for the space we occupy. Pay your rent. What was that? What did it mean? Why hadn't she listened? Gradually it began to be connected with herself. Then the speaker Fin- ished and the pictures were shown again but those little words that were so full of meaning never left her mind. Somehow it had a strange effect upon her. About twelve they went home. At her door Jim said, What's happen- ed, Pat? Cheer up. You've lost your pep. jim, what does that mean, 'Serv- ice is the rent we pay?' Oh, don't worry your pretty head about it. You'l1 never see service of any kind. Then he was gone. So that was what they thought of her. just a girl for a good time. Hadn't she been occupying space at Groverton High for four years and what rent s X , I I 5 xX ', 0 ' 'flu- THE BEFICUN X X k norm scum. Y had she paid? None. She thought for a long time. Was it too late to pay her rent? No. No one knew the change in Patty that night. She realized that not only in her school work had she been frivol- ous but in very many other ways. She resolved not to put off that busi- ness any longer. To-morrow she would begin. The next morning she awoke with a new kind of interest in life. At school she was as pleased as any- one, when she found out that they were gradually making progress with the book. That day a thought came to Patty. Why couldn't she write a story too? The next days were busy ones. Her story was not accepted, but nevertheless she had tried and that was service. For more than a week she worked for money. And she succeeded in getting not an amazing sum but enough to help send the magazine to the printer. Then came the month of waiting until it should be ready to be issued. Finally the month was over and the book came out with splendid suc- cess. Patty was delighted, for she knew she had helped. Not only in school work had she changed but in other ways that jim rightly pointed out some time later. What has happened to you, Pat- ty, you're getting to be a regular girl. I'm only paying up my back rent, jim. JUNE WEYBRIGHT, june, '20. FOR GIRL AND GUM. IGF, iN FRONT of the little red if 'school house stood a large 1? poplar tree thru which the 23, ,Q sunbeams darted, checkering M218 waves of gold. 4 the ground with glimmering Beneath its familiar shade sat Tubby, chewing speculatively on a blade of grass, his features, that is, those which could be seen in spite of his balloonlike cheeks, showing utter dejection. Goin' F1shin', Tubby? Bobolink Williams strode by, a willow pole arched over his shoulder, a can of bait hanging from the end. Aw, shut up. C'mon, Tubby. Don' be a grouch. Thuh biddy might croak by t'mor- rer. Wha's'amatter, huh? Nuthin. Gee, I bet thuh f-ish is bitin' to- day. C'mon along, Tubby. Tubby, surrendering himself to the wiles of the village Omar Khayam, lumbered heavily to the ground. Got another hook, Link? Bobolink regulated his pace to the wobbling ducklike gait of the mo- rose Tubby. Wha's'amatter, Tubby? Nuthin', Aw, Tubby. You aint never gonna tell no- body, cross your heart? Cross my heart. Well, I seen Spooks give her a apple, an' write sump'n on her slate. Bobolink whistled incredulously. He did! Cantcha iight him? Sure, but I can't ketchim.

Say, Tubby, there he is aiishin' out on the dam. Shucks, he can't help seein' me. Suddenly Tubby's face assumed the expression of a perfect vacuum. Slowly an idea formulated. And Tubby smiled. A rock struck the water with a loud splash, spraying the surprised Spooks. Say, Spooks, c'm'ere a minute, will yuh? I wanna tell yuh sump'n. Nuthin' doin'. I don't care to get hit jest now. I aint gonna hitchuh. Die on 'is spot 'f I do. Spooks approached suspiciously, still keeping out of arm's length of Tubby. Well? Lissen here, I seen you give my gal a apple an' write sump'n on her slate. Now I wanna tell yuh sump'n. We'll play your team, an' if yuh lose you can't never talk to Caroline again, an' if I lose then I won't neither. You willin'? Awright. Both placed implicit confidence in the ability of their teams. Each took a stick and scratched his initials in the dirt, carefully cov- ering leaves over them. Facing toward the stream, they mumbled in unison, Lake, lake, carmine lake, Who breaks this law, his head will break. A few dark clouds seemed to be enjoying a race across the face of the sun, probably knowing nothing Pape Forty-Two of their ominous portent to Tubby and Spooks, whose absolute confi- dence in victory was beginning to weaken as they entered the Williams barn. On a wall of the barn were chalk- ed the names of the two captains and, after each, a box in which the score was kept. At one end of the barn, about nine feet from the ground, a wood-hoop was nailed. On the side opposite the score-board stood a barrel which had once con- tained cider. And upon it sat Caro- line, stretching her gum to the point of greatest elasticity and daintily re- turning it to her mouth. The two teams descended from the dressing room fexhayloftj and lined up on the floor, all bedecked in the latest version in basketball suits. Tubby had a complete attire of basketball clothes-all but the shirt and pants. These consisted of a pair of 'paw's' pink pajamys, cut short fseemingly bitten shortj at the knees. Ladies and gentlemen and Tub- by, announced Link, the referee, in his most official voice. No pri- vate Hghts will be allowed. When the 3:00 o'clock train hits the sta- tion, the game is over. Play ball! For half an hour the ball whirled back and forth, now heaved at one basket, now at the other. Finally Spooks broke the scoreless tie with a long basket, in spite of the glori- ous but vain resistance of Shrimp Merkle, who, with both hands cling- ing to Spooks' pants, executed a swan-like dive, alighting on his ol- factory organ. Taint nuthin', Shrimpg it'll on'y '53-J? -2.1 ' c X, ueuru su--:nc be blue a couple o' days, comforted Link, and the game was resumed. Tubby scored a foul, but his hopes of victory collapsed when, far up the valley the whistle of the 3:00 o'clock train was heard. Burst all his castles in the air! Faded all his dreams of happiness! Nothing, nothing for him but the cold, cold world and dea-Plop! The ball struck the soliloquizing Tubby on the head and bounded toward the basket. The walls whirled round, the ceiling disappeared, and Tubby was gathered unto the arms of Morpheus. Where am I? Tubby looked up into the face of Caroline, who though pale and ex- cited, still chewed her gum with the stolidity of fate. Then Tubby re- membered. Bitterly he turned his face aside, thinking of the prize he had come so near to winning. As he did so he noticed the handwrit- ing on the wall. His eyes opened wide, his lips fell apart, and he turn- ed questioningly to Link. Why, you big dub, you scored thuh last basket. Outdoors the clouds rolled by, the sun shone forth. And Tubby smiled. LAWRENCE GOLDMAN, June, '20. C5120 K J RED INK. UT, what I don't see, is why black ink wonlt do as well as red, protested Hanks. I have a fountain pen with blackg if you insist on red, I'll e to carry a bottle and pen. jim Hadley smiled. Well, I'll tell you, he said. After you've been here a month or two you'll find that X our crew of mortar-mixers and day laborers aren't all a bunch of Sun- day-School scholars. In fact, about nine-tenths of them are ex-cons and thugs who have come up here to skip some inquisitive sheriff. Not long after we started our building out here, we received quite a few complaints from the men that they were not being paid. Our paymaster insisted that he could prove by their signatured receipts that they had been paid, but on looking them up, we found most of the receipts were unsigned. We were set back about eight hundred dollars and, of course, the paymaster was fired. However, we heard later that a second fountain pen had been substituted for the paymaster's and the fellows had written in invisible ink. Of course, nothing could be proved, but from then on we have insisted on red ink and a quill pen being used. Oh, all right, consented Hanks, sticking the bottle of ink in his left hand shirt pocket. He picked up the money satchel and started for the door. Don't forget to follow the wagon- road! called Hadley, If you ever get out into the shortcut to-night, you'l1 break your neck over those piles. Hanks nodded, stepped out into the heavy darkness and pulling his cap down tight hurried down the road. john Hanks had come to the big construction camp only six days be- fore, but with the best of recom- mendations, and had been given the job of paymaster. He knew the short-cut of which jim spoke. It Page Iibrty-Three if xy' X 'Q rtffja 'Q 3,154 .ni e - - I 1 qv ,., Z n ml .wr -'., V.. s 2 s V- e N-eff ilu morn so-um. - . V . . was a narrow path through a little valley to the huge dam now in the last stages of construction. It was hard enough to navigate it in day- light because of a great number of unused concrete pile settings cov- ered by weeds and standing some three or four feet high. To try it in this pitchy blackness, was to court bad bruises and possibly seri- ous injury. Consequently Hanks kept religiously to the narrow wagon road. Hurrying along, his cheerful train of thought was suddenly interrupted by the conversation of two men who were rapidly approaching him. As yet they had not seen him and he stepped into the shadow of a giant tree alongside to await their pass- ing. He recognized them as two of the men from the day shift and wondered at their proximity to the main office. He soon found out. Ain't it about time fer him to show up? asked one, a burly brute with a stout club in his hand. Yeah, was the answer, he'll come out in a minute. I'll pike in- to the window to see if he ain't about ready. Hanks' startled brain heard no more. Grasping his Satchel tightly under his arm, he plunged into the brush to cut across the valley. He heard one of the men swear and rush into the brush farther up. That'S him! he cried, Cut im off! The two dashed after the frightened paymaster. Hanks for- getting his gun, ran like a fright- ened hare and gradually his pursuers could be heard dropping behind. He decided not to stop until he did not Page Forty-Four L hear them at all and throwing on a little more speed, he ran on, dodg- ing right and left to avoid the piles. Suddenly the two ruffians, gasping and struggling along after the sound of the fleeing victim heard a faint crack. They stopped a minute and then rushed on toward the sound. One stumbled, and stopping felt the body of a man lying upon his back. Must of stumbled over a dead limb, he said. Strike a match, Bill, and we'll frisk 'im. Bill fumbled for a match and struck it on a near- by pile. The match flared and burn- ed and the two bent over the pros- trate body. God! cried Bill, somebody's beat us to it and shot him. We'd better beat it! The other bent low- er to see the red stain slowly spread- ing over the left-breast of the pay- master. Beat it is right, he growl- ed, They got 'im in the heart! Some twenty minutes later Hanks opened his eyes and tenderly rubbed his stomach. Knocked the air clean out a me, he groaned, an' concrete aint soft. He listened intently for a minute, climbed over the pile and fumbling in the weeds soon regained his satchel. Guess they went on by me, he murmured, Confound it, I broke my bottle of ink and ruined my shirt too! He regained the roadway, went back for another bottle of ink and forty minutes later was paying off the night shift at the dam. In the meantime, two burly ruffians slouch- ed to the nearest railway station caught a rattler and Beat it. June, ,20. R. ELLIS, ily? as .5 -x 'ffl '59 '. i .-fi Q, I HE BEHCUN X monk W- l V Xli-'txf DRAGONS AND POPPIES. WAS the night b e f o r e Christmas, and all through the house -But that is not my story. Nevertheless, it ' 1 l ' was the night before Christ- mas. The big open kitchen of the Waring mansion was warm and drowsy, and filled with the scents of good Christmas cheer. Little Ming Tog, stout and comfort- able, slumped down in Bridget's easy chair, and dreamed of the mor- row's feasts. Bridget's wide, round-backed chair was the most comfortable and old-fashioned chair in that modern up-to-date kitchen. Bridget would not work without it, and in days when servants, good servants were so scarce,-Well, there was the chair and there was Bridget, and as long as the chair stayed, Bridget stayed too. Hence, Ming Tog's liking for that particular chair. Little Ming Tog loved the easy things of life, tho' he was allowed so few of them. Bridget's chair was sacred, he knew, but only when Bridget was around. just then, Bridget was slumbering peacefully in an adjoining room, tak- ing a nap between duties, and her deep, Irish snores rent the stillness of the night, and vaguely annoyed Ming Tog. Only vaguely, tho', for Ming Tog knew that as long as she snored, she slumbered, and could make no outcry about her chair. In all, life seemed very comfort- able and easy to little Ming Tog, and he radiated warmth and happiness in every line of his fat, and contented, little figure. He felt drowsy, and I N 5? .-1 ' 5 much inclined to sleep, but Bridget's last emphatic warning still rang clear in his ears, Sure, and if ye let me turkey burn, and me good black coffee bile over, all the chinka- mans in the wur-uld cou1dn't keep ye fum St. Patrick's wrath and me own aching fist. And Bridget could use her burly Irish fist well. Ming Tog could testify to that. However, as long as he kept one eye on the oven, and the other on the percolator, he could devote his inner eyes to pleasant dreams, and fear no evil consequences, at least from Bridget. The coffee was bubbling nicely in the pot, the turkey was simmering gently in the oven, and little Ming Tog felt that he was doing his duty to Bridget and the world. Gradually, a sweet drowsiness crept over him, his nostrils inhaled faint, mysterious perfumes, instead of the aroma of boiling coffee, and he felt himself borne on fairy wings, through shady lanes of tall Chinese tulip trees. All about him was a soft, green haze, as tho' a veil had been pur- posely thrown before him, to allow him only shadowy glimpses of the beauties thru which he passed. There were many turnings and twistings to the narrow green lane he trod, and at every turn a giant green dragon towered out of the fog as tho' wait- to prey upon him. Yet, as he drew near, fearfully, they faded slowly away, and he hurried on unmolested. Swiftly now his mysterious wings bore him, on through the green mist and the tall trees, until a bright yel- low glow, piercing the haze, brought Page Forty-Five li l IQ :Fad 'si ' N233 'iff' :zen-u sumluu. him out into the familiar streets of Chinaland. The narrow, crooked streets were still thereg the same old crowded houses lined his pathg and the same busy crowds thronged the streets. It was his childhood, com- ing back through the years to bring him sweet memories. Here, hurrying towards him, with bent head, yellow, flying pigtail and clasped hands, was old Dr. Chou, the beloved friend of his childhood and the patriarch of this little town. Ming Tog started forward to em- brace him, calling his name. Dr. Chou hurried on past him, with bent head and flying pigtail, as tho' he had neither heard nor seen him. Little Ming Tog was hurt and look- ed pathetically at their expression- less faces and silent manner. He recognized many, but none recog- nized him. Stumbling blindly, nigh on to tears, he soon found himself before his old home. All was as of old, and Ming Tog thought happily of his good mother. Mothers did not for- get their children. Mother would surely recognize him. Softly he opened the quaintly carved door, and stood on the threshold peering into the room. Yes, there on the floor, sewing industriously upon a piece of embroidery work sat little Ming Tog's mother. Ming Tog laughed gleefully, and clapping his hands, rushed across the room to where she sat, and knelt happily beside her. Mother, he cried, Mother of Mine! Here is little Ming Tog come back to you. The woman on the Hoor worked on diligently, and ap- peared not to notice him. Alarmed, Page Forty-Six Ming Tog queried,- Mother, don't you know little Ming Tog, your own little Chinese boy ? Still, his mother sewed on with expressionless face, and Ming Tog, broken-hearted, rushed out of the door, and into the street aagin. His own mother did not know him, did not love him! Poor little Chinaman! His tears streamed down to the street, and melted even the hard heart of the cobblestones, and soon the streets were swirling in a river of tears. Still, Ming Tog wept on, and his tears swept him off, down the long, narrow streets, past the crowded houses of Chinaland, to the beautiful private gardens of the Emperor. He floated lightly like a lily pad, upon the stream his tears had formed, and through the gardens, washing a path through th e Emperor's famous grasses, he swept. Down his tears flowed to a small silvery lake upon whose waters he soon found himself. He was heavy, was Ming Tog, but the magic waters bore him up, and kept him afloat in the middle of the lake. Bordering this lake were banks of dusky, drowsy poppies, whose red petals made crimson patches in the silver waters. Suddenly, Ming Tog heard soft sounds of singing, and an old fa- miliar Chinese tune stole in upon his grief. Ming Tog raised his head, and perceived among the poppies, where their bloom was the thickest and the purest, a beautiful nymph-like little figure, huddled just out of reach of the waters, twining the stems of the grasses. She was a little Chinese- maiden, and as 'she turned her small, almond eyes upon him, Ming Tog- .Q 1,151 ESQ! , .LIIIIQI , - a f ' I 'HE BEHCUN If :sawn mann gave a cry of joy, and then of for- lorn despair, Alas! She was but a dream, and would fade too! Ming Tog, he heard her say softly, little Ming Tog! Look at me. Don't you know Li'l Lolee Lang? Little Ming Tog raised his head joyfully. She had spoken. She knew him. Oh, little Solee Lang, he cried, my own little Solee Lang. Are you but a dream? And will you go and leave me as the others have done, little Solee Lang? No, no, Ming Tog, she answered sadly, I am no dream. You are the dream. You will leave me. Ah! even now you are fading, my Ming Tog, you are leaving me. Stay! Little Solee wants you. Little Ming Tog gave a piercing cry of disappoint- ment and anguish as he saw her fad- ing slowly away, and heard her low pitiful pleas- Stay! Little Solee wants you! A soft, engulfing green mist again arose and enveloped him, clouds of sweet perfume drove his senses diz- zy, and through it all, striding through the haze towards him, with giant claws and dripping fangs, Ming Tog saw the great green dra- gon. N earer and nearer it came, and he felt a terrible weight upon his shoulders, then as the dragon clasped his head to tear it from his body, Little Ming Tog awoke, and confronted a wrathful Bridget. She was vigorously pulling his pigtail and pouring forth a most unkind stream o flanguage. Ye vile hathen! Ye murtherin' Chinkaman! Ye imp of Satan! Dramin' swate peaceful- like, while honest folks trust ye. Up and out o' that, ye hathen! Out of X L me chair and explain yourself. Why is the turkey burnt? Why is me good black coffee biled to nuthin', and why be ye slapin' at four o' the clock in the mornin' whin I told ye to wake me at tin last night? Bedad, an t'is a wonder I'm not crazy wi' the likes of ye around! Ming Tog stared at her dully as she volleyed on, and had only pres- ence of mind enough to leap out of her chair at her threat. Had he been asleep? Was it all a dream, Little Solee Lang and the poppies? It must have been, for the turkey was burnt, the coffee boiled away, and Bridget was thundering around at four o'clock in the morning. There was a slight rustle, and Mrs. Waring appeared in the door- way, clad in a morning wrapper. Bridget, she demanded, what is all this noise about, and what is the matter with Ming Tog? Brid- get turned wrathfully around, and poured forth the sum total of her misfortunes. Well, smiled Mrs. Waring, amusedly, undisturbed by Bridget's torrent of protest, As long as you are up in time to prepare breakfast, just forgive little Ming Tog his carelessness. This is Christmas morning, you know, and don't you remember what the angels said, 'Peace on earth, good will to men'? just this once was Ming Tog forget- ful. Perhaps he was dreaming of Chinaland, and forgot to wake up. Eh, little Ming Tog? Ming Tog only nodded. He was too full to speak. He had burnt her Christmas turkey, ruined Bridget's coffee, and waked up at four o'clock Page If'orfy-Sc vm in the morning. Mrs. Waring was kind. She understood Ming Tog. Mrs. Waring disappeared for a moment and when she returned, she held something in her hands. Ming Tog, she said lightly, here is a Christmas parcel for you. It came yesterday-all the way from China, and I saved it for you for this morn- ing. Perhaps it is from your little Chinese sweetheart, eh, Ming Tog? So saying she extended to him a small, tightly wrapped parcel, stamped with several varieties of foreign stamps, and covered all over with curious scrolls. Ming Tog tore the covering off eagerly, and dis- closed a small lacquered box of quaint Oriental design, from the depths of it, he shook forth a beauti- ful silken flag, with a huge green dragon in the center, and under it in delicate Chinese embroidery work an inscription meaning, To Ming Tog, from Solee Lang. Peering curiously, Mrs. Waring and Bridget saw a small rolled scroll of paper, covered with tiny Chinese ciphers, but Ming Tog, with the eyes of another world, saw thereon a tiny, silvery lake, bordered round with drowsy, crimson pop- pies, and where their bloom was the thickest and the purest, his own little Solee Lang. june, '21. MILDRED MILHAM, THE LITTLE HOUSE ON THE HILL. Ga X68 T IS snowing. The wind is howling, and shrieking, and tearing around the little, A30 ,SB tumble-down house on the 91: iw, hill. The picket fence is ly- ing on the ground, and the gate is c Page Fwty-Eight lx., ,I 'xxx ul X 1' - ff' w 'f 4- L V nzoru semen. , .Z L leaning against a tree. With a shutter hanging by one hinge, the panes of the window broken, and with the chimney crumbling away, the little house looks forlorn in- deed. In a little home on the hill, there is great happiness. As we go through the garden gate, we see beautiful, stately roses, lifting their heads to the moon, we catch the faint, elusive fragrance of the lilacg we spy the little, modest lily-of-the-valley, hid- ing among its dark, green leaves. There is a light in the window, which is hung with dainty, muslin curtains. There are two children playing on the floor, laughing and giggling in frantic glee. Mother, in her rocker, and Father, in his easy- chair, are watching the children at their play. The next day Daddy comes home from work, earlier than usual, be- cause he is feeling bad. Before the week is over, Daddy is dead. Now, Mother must leave the place where she has spent so many happy years, because she will have to support the children. She sells her furniture and, with the children, bids farewell to the pleasant home, the beautiful flowers, and the faith- ful pets with whom they have whiled away many a pleasant hour. It is snowing. The wind sighs and groans, and seems to mourn the day when those who were left of a happy family said Good-bye to the little home on the hill. The shutter creaks dismally as the wind swings it back and forth. The picket fence, lying on the ground is almost covered with Xu .2 X fi 'EEA 1,9 snow, and we see the white outline of a gate leaning against a bare stark tree. KATHERINE RABENAU, jan., '22. A TALE OF THE HARLE- QUINADE. ELL us, they said, when shall a wise man come out of Bergamo? And what could I answer L' ' them? For it is a sad truth t a e of Bergamo are not renown- ed for our wit. Beside, they that t a u n t e d me, Scaramouche and Scapini and Ruzzante, were people of much importanceg while I was only Harlequine, a poor thing of tattered ribbonsg a singer of broken songs. To me they seemed exceed- ing sweet, my broken songs! But no one ever listened to them, and there- fore those great people, Scara- mouche, and Scapini and Ruzzante, laughed and taunted me. And, Harlequine, they cried, you from the low countryg how could ever any good thing come out of Bergamo? But all this was in the old days before the coming of Isabella. CWe called her Isabella, although she had many other namesj After those great ones had seen Isabella, they forgot to laugh at my broken songs. For she was the fairest lady that ever lived in any landg and those great ones worshipped her humbly enough. Their voices were sweet with praise of her. Lovelier than a thousand roses, they called her. And, More joyous than the voices V79 k qs if W i M5-9k N,-I, 0 Qs. of many birds, singing at dawn. And all that they said of her was true! And I, Harlequine, was Hlled with a great love for that fair lady. But my love only brought me tearsg for no one, I thought, could care for a poor things of songs and tattered rib- bons. There was Scaramouche, tall and pale in his black velvetg Scapini of the white hands, and Ruzzante, cloaked and sworded, and very brave. Surely it seemed that the Lady Isabella would choose one of those great ones to be her true lover. And I wept, because of the sorrow I had, that I was such a poor thing of tattered ribbons and broken songs. Then that glorious lady came to me, and questioned meg and no words could ever tell the tender music of her voice. Harlequine, why do you weep? I weep for you, sweet lady. I told her. I weep for the beauty and the glory of you, and for the most dear heart of you, that can never be mine. And, Harlequine, Harlequine, she said, I begin to believe what they say of you. For surely a man must be slow of wit, who weeps for what is already his! So it was that the Lady Isabella chose me for her lover. And I loved her very truly, and because of the gladness that was in my heart, my broken songs were made whole, and so exceeding sweet withal, that folk listened, and laughed, and wept, for joy of my songs. It was then that I set the whole wide world a-ringing Page 1 urlfy-Nine Ixq ff,l 'xg 'III ,p q :E 'lie Q - ree.. 'pri aa. , . , X A sum su- Q X 3 L l to the tune of my songs: and if you listen, you can hear their echoes still. For all this was long and long ago. Scaramouche and Scapini and Ruzzante are dead and forgotten: and the fair lady of my dreams is gone these many years. But I, Harlequine, because of the sweetness of my songs, have been made immortalg I Haunt my ribbons in glorious company now! And here, among the spirits of deathless sing- ers, and lovers, is one, a poor clerk, who praises his Beatriceg and there is a mad priest who hymns his Laura. But I, Harlequine-I always sing of Isabella! MARGARET De LAUGHTER, jan., '21. AN EXPERIENCE. ANANAS. Bananas every- where. Dozens of 'em. Hun- dreds of 'em. I leaned against the wall of the car and sighed contentedly. I pinch- ed myself to see if I was in apcar of bananas. I was, and there were the bananas, sack upon sack of them, piled three-fourths of the way to the ceiling. It was somewhat close quarters for solid comfort, but so long as I could eat-eat bountifully, luxuri- ously, unstintedly, I surely didn't have any kick coming. Then I thought of the seal clerk with the spectacles and I laughed as I re- Hected how I'd crawled under the car from the off side, with him not ten feet away. Well, I had beat him to it. I was sealed in, and hoboing had its soft spots after all. Every- lat. lingo Fiffy thing was so comfortable that I be- gan to cast around for objections. I found one. It was cold in that car, darned cold, and I proceeded to turn up my coat collar and snuggle cozi- ly between two sacks. I must have lain there at least three minutes be- fore it occurred to me that I was hungry. Think of it, three whole minutes in a car of bananas, and not realize you're hungry! Well, any- how, I got my knife to work and ripped open a sack in a jiffy. I was a pirate all right. Who wouldn't have been a pirate? It was hours later, and I'd trans- ferred my attention to another bunch. No, I hadn't finished the first sack-it was mostly green, but I'd made a pretty good-sized aper- ture in the second when my Hnife slipped from my fingers. I lished around in my pockets and dug up a match. It was the last match I had. I lit it with some reluctance and held it far down, but the knife had entirely vanished. As I was transferring the burnt end to my left hand to prolong its life, I hap- pened to glance at the rent I had made in the gunny sack, and, as I did so, I sat bolt upright, nearly butting a hole through the roof. There-not two feet from my face- was a big, hideous, hairy creature, about the size of a silver dollar. For a second I sat staring at it, transfixed. The match seared my lingers, Hickered, and went out, and then suddenly I came to my senses and began to crawl. I fled, terror- stricken, to the doors and threw my weight against them. I beat and pounded them frantically. I bumped X A IETTTJ' 'ESE' THE BEHCDN and tore around over those sacks like a man bereft of reason, and then, as the full realization of my position forced itself upon me, I screamed at the top of my voice. I thought of all the stories I had heard and read of tarantulas, and as they stood out vividly, every miser- able ,soul-racking retail of them, I was wild with horror. I didn't have a chance against that thing there in the dark. It might even now be making its way stealthily toward me. I pulled myself together and rolled over into a corner, weak and shivering. Then the thought that there might be others-others right where I was lying, brought me to my knees again with a groan of de- spair. There must be others. There were others. A cold sweat stood out on my body, and I knelt there be- reft of every atom of manhood, quaking and cowering in the dark. Through the vortex of my emo- tions there came suddenly a new impression-the sensation as of something crawling. It was nothing definite, but it was intensely real. Something was crawling. Crawling slowly and methodically up my left leg. No, 'twas my right leg. I start- ed to reach for it, then suddenly stopped, my arm poised rigidly. If I did reach-it, touched it, it would sting-sting quicker. I sat there in an agony of suspense, waiting for it to strike. Waiting-waiting- waiting, for an eternity, but it didn't strike. It had even ceased crawling. I chuckled softly, then I laughed. I was going insane. I reached down suddenly and clapped my hand over the spot where the crawling had ceased, but there was nothing. I felt sick and faint, and leaned warily against the car wall. As I did so, my face touched something cold- cold and clammy and soft. I started back screaming, then I laughed again-I was insane-I had leaned against my own hand. To assure myself of this, for I was sure of nothing, I ran my palm slow- ly along the splintered surface of the wall, and then with a howl of terror I rolled over on the sacks. I had touched something hairy-some- thing soft-something-I sat up with an impelling desire to reach out again. I could stand the torture no longer. I wanted to know where I stood. I wanted a fighting chance. I had suddenly lost all sense of fear. My nerves were strung to the snap- ping point. I groped my hand along the wall, up and down and sideways. There was nothing-nothing. It was another prank of the imagina- tion-it was-my lingers tightened. My blood seemed to congeal. I felt it. I had hold of it. It gave easily under my fingers. Why didn't it sting? Why didn't it even hiss? I cou1dn't let go-I was riveted to the spot. I must have fainted and rolled over against the doors. I remember vaguely my head striking something, then I knew no more. How long I lay there I don't know. When I regained conscious- ness I was stretched out on a pile of sawdust in the shadow of an ice- house, and a man was bending over me with a bucket. There was a cir- cle of curious faces leaning close about me. The seal clerk had found me when Page Fifty-One THE BEFICDN S5 I-it pl lg., .,a ..........g I.. he opened the car for inspection and ventilation. I told him my story, and even climbed back in the car and pointed out the sack where had lurked this venomous horror. While they were prodding about with sticks and clubs, my eyes swept the walls. Then I started for the door. There it is, I yelled hoarsely. Over there. See ? Somebody swung a lantern around so that the light fell directly on the spot. Huh, shouted a voice. The bo's dippy- I looked closer, then swore, for there in the exact spot where I had run my hand-where I had suffered momentarily the tortures of Hades, was a good-sized bunch of sack ravelings, held securely by the splintered surface of the wood. I didn't wait for any more. I climbed out of that refrigerator and made a quick getaway. But the tarantula was in there-heaven knows it was there, and here's hoping they found it. BONNIE BUETTNER, June, '20. THE SOUTH PAW . O SORRY, Dave, old top. You can play ball fairly well but you belong in the field. Anywhere but the box. L Dave Colton nodded his quietly and slowly left the pitcher's box. Coach Thorne grasp- ed his shoulder, as he passed him. Don't feel sore, Dave, he said. You know you can't squeeze blood out of a turnip, and your arm wasn't made for pitching. U U , Y 49 Page Fifty-Two X3 Maybe not, Harry, replied the boy, but I know I can pitch. I want to pitch. My arm just needs training. Yes, and it would take a whole season of constant training before you'd be able to do it. Dave said nothing but walked quietly to the bench, and sat down. I wish I could get some one to help me, he mused, it would not--- Thump-Zing. And a ponder- ous form sat down beside him while two hands grasped his arms. Don't get the blues, Dave, old sport, boomed Jack Graham's voice. You've got something on that ball. I could feel steam and lots of it. All you need is control. Dave turned and faced the big catcher. I was just telling Thorne that all I wanted was training and- Well, I emphatically repeat it, interrupted Graham, but- his voice dropped to a low whisper. Say, you grab a glove tonight after practice, and we'll wend our way to a vacant lot and I'll give you all the help I can. Dave sat up. Here's my paw, he grinned, Let's shake on that. Graham gripped hands with the boy and said, I'll go and tell Thorne, and he can give us some- Absolutely and vociferously, and vehemently-no , replied Dave so- berly. I'll train with you, but noth- ing doing with Thorne. In the name of common sense, why? Thorne'll- You b e t y o u r sweet life. Thorne'll-and he'1l do it well. He gy' if le fx ,gg 'xxx Q, 0 . 1 I : H. ll ,,- w.jEV,4 life Cf-'rj mn. sement if lv Lf V i says I can't pitch and I say I can. So there you are. Thorne's out of it. All right, sighed the catcher, what you say goes. That evening the two boys were working hard. Little higher, Dave-That's the stuff-Do it again. Smack! Atta boy. And such exclamations poured steadily from Graham's mouth. With perspiration pouring from his face, Dave 'smashed' them in one after the other. All right! Hold it, said Graham. Say, old boy. I'm beginning to think Thorne's got a nail in his head. You get out here every evening and I'll put you in the game against Hil- ton. Yes, next season,', replied Dave. I'll be in trim then. Why, you'll be- No, I won't. You give me your word you'll keep mum about this or I quit. I'll come out next season. After a long argument, Graham finally promised to keep it dark. Baseball set in well for West- brook High School. King, Thorne's only pitcher who could hold a team down, was in excellent form and took five out of eight games from the Westbrook opponents. Only two more games were to be played and, if Westbrook could win one of them, the trophy for that season would rest in the Laurel Case at the High School. Clinton High School brought a strong team up to the Westbrook diamond. A fast game was played leaving the Gold and Gray team on the small end of a 7 to 5 score. All hopes now rested upon win- ning the next game from Hilton. These Purple and Green players were also tied for first place and reports were to the effect that King would have a hard time with Hil- ton's sluggers . In fact, all hopes rested in the pitcher's arm. Dave was still a sub fielder on the regular team, but had been keeping away from the field as much as possible. He practiced nearly every evening with Graham and that individual continually mourned over the fact that he had promised to keep Dave's pitching a secret. Oh, hang it all, Dave! He thun- dered when they were leaving the lot, two nights before the Hilton game, You've got King matched, and I'm a catcher and I think I know pitchers. What if King goes bad? Westbrook will lose the pen- nant because a 'lightning south- paw' won't open up his mouth. King won't go bad, smiled Dave. He's played nine games and lost only two of em. Forget it. I'm not going in this season. Aw you give me a pain, growl- ed Graham as they parted. Play ball, droned the umpire. King wound up and sent a hot one over the plate. Strike one, bawled the umpire. Ye-a-a-h, roared the West- brook rooters. Graham tossed the ball back. King paused a few moments and then sent another across the plate at terrific speed. Strike one, bawled the umpire. Again the stands roared. The gold and gray pennants waved mad- Pczgc I viffy-Three 56 XD WZ Ig rxfgn IQ Itffjl XD ' Nauru swans. XF ly and the cheer leaders exerted themselves to drown out the Hilton contingent. Then King threw the third ball and the batter retired shaking his head sadly. ' The Hilton players dashed out to their positions and started a brisk warming. Three Westbrook stars were re- tired in rapid order. Both pitchers were at their best and as a conse- quence five innings elapsed with not a hit. In the fifth inning Westbrook was at bat. Marlowe, the first base- man, popped a fly to left Field. The fielder fumbled badly and Marlowe slid into second ahead of the ball. The stands were clamoring for a hit now and Graham walked over, selected a heavy bat and stepped up to the plate. Draper, Hilton's pitcher, worked two swift curves, which the umpire called strikes. Then he threw a swift straight ball, which to all eyes looked as if it would cut the plate in two. Graham saw the sudden break as the ball dropped. A quick downward swing of the bat, and- Crack! Graham raced to first, rounded second, touched third, and then went for home. The West- brook rooters were literally shriek- ing. Marlowe crossed the plate and then Graham slid in only a few sec- onds ahead of the ball. The score board registered 2-0, in favor of Westbrook. King stepped into the box and smiled at the rooters. He threw a swift ball straight over the plate, and the Hilton batter connected squarely. The ball came like a Page Fiffy-Fon 1' streak of lightning straight at King. Move!-Look out- Shrieked the stands. A sickening thud and the pitcher staggered backward, smiled peculiarly and then left the box. It's broken in two places, Thorne, he said quietly. Thorne groaned. Go on in, Mar- tin. Just hold 'em, . Then he turn- ed his attention to the unfortunate pitcher. Martin rose completely unnerved. The recent scene had shattered his nerves and he knew it. He walked to the box and picked up the glove. It took just live minutes to fill the bases and hand Hilton a run. Then Martin turned to Thorne. I don't know what to do, Thorne ' he gasped. They'll walk on us. My arm is gone and my nerve shattered. I- Well, who will pitch? groaned Thorne, there's just.you and King. You've got to do some hard work. Martin looked appealingly at the coach for a few minutes and then started to the box. Up to this time Dave Colton had been sitting on the bench watching the game. He had seen the accident, and also the hole Martin had made and had heard the dialogue between the coach and the pitcher. Graham shot one glance at the boy and then called Thorne. Martin's shot, said Thorne turn- ing, Goody-bye, pennant. Yes, Sir, Martin's gone, repeated Graham, but we have a second to King on this bench and I believe he can hold 'im. Where? roared the coach. Just show me. 'Wu-I' . Qu-I . '31 fi. ' ff - if vL!f nunnn so-um. wr- Then Dave rose and said, I'll try, Thorne. The coach looked aston- ished. Why-why you can't pitch, he said. Go and sit down, said Graham, come on, Dave, do your best-or worst, he grinned. Dave relieved Martin, who walked in and dropped limply on the bench. The young pitcher wasted no time but shot the ball over. Strike one, was the welcome sound that came to the rooters. Graham returned the ball and Dave sent it over again. The Hilton batter drove a scratch hit down to third, forcing an out at the plate. The Westbrook rooters leaped to their feet in excitement. Then Dave threw a swift drop. The batter hit it by luck and knocked a high foul. Get that, Jack, yelled Thorne as he rushed toward the plate. Graham's mask fell off and with a dull thud the ball fell into the big mitt. A continuous roar was com- ing from the stand as Dave struck the last man out leaving the Hilton team gaping with astonishment. Then Dave did the impossible. In his first real game he pitched three more innings not allowing a hit. King had met his match. The final score stood: Westbrook 2, Hilton 1. The Westbrook rooters surged over the top of the stands and caught the new pitcher and bore him triumphantly around the dia- mond, yelling madly. Thorne just had time to grip Dave's hand and say, Dave, that was great. Im not sentimental but I'd like to just take beck a few words I said at the be- ginning of the season. I was wrong. You're a regular wonder. BERT BRENNEN, THE IMPOSSIBLE POSSIBLE. q CD N October 1920, there came june, 20. X- I5 Gil. to the little village of La Salle, Louisiana, a mysteri- 2.6,-fs ous stranger who called him- WT 'if self, Anim.,' He rented a small cottage and a few days later mysterious looking packages began to come. He shut himself up in the cottage, seldom coming out, and having his groceries and other supplies sent to him. At various times the neighbors tried to peek in through the shutter, but they could see nothing, for he had tacked something over the win- dows on the inside. But they heard mysterious sounds. In a few weeks strange happen- ings were observed in the little vill- age which set everyone wondering. A family would be gathered in the sitting room after supper, reading, talking and playing games, and would notice, now and then, the sound of footsteps, seemingly in the very room, although no- one was moving at the timeg and one even- ing a newspaper was observed to fly across the room. These things were kept up for some little time, after which they suddenly ceased. About the same time the stran- ger disappeared from the view of mortal eyes. The grocer and butcher, coming several days, could see noth- ing of Anim although they heard strange noises. Page Fifty-Five if A I5 gffjn lgllfffil I A I nenru scnuua. if The neighbors, after a great deal of trouble, burst in the doors, but found nothing, the house looking just as it would had some old bach- elor been living there. Neighbors during the next few years declared that they heard sounds as though someone were moving around in the house al- though nothing was ever seen. This state of affairs continued for several years till one day two men came to the village saying that they were there in search of rest. They were in the inn one evening listen- ing to the men of the village talking and someone made a casual mention of the strange disappearance of Anim. The strangers seemed inter- ested and the story, or as much as anyone knew of it, was told to them. They thought the story strange and asked to see the cottage. They were shown it, unoccupied these last two years. Nevertheless it looked as though someone had been living there, for none of the usual signs of an' unoccupied house were observ- able, although things were in a very disorderly state. The two strangers watched the place for several nights and heard just what the villagers had heard for the last two years. By this time they had become thoroughly inter- ested in the affair and determined to stay in the cottage for a night. So they made their preparations and one Friday night they went to the place. About eleven o'clock they were in one of the rooms, reading, when suddenly they heard sounds as though someone besides them- Page Fifty-Sin: l selves were in the room, walking around, and they heard a voice say in a very indistinct and queer artic- ulation, Go down. Nothing will harm you, and saw just then at one side of the room, near the wall, a trap door open. Very much astonished they went over and saw a ladder leading down into what was, apparently, a cellar, although they could not see plainly, it was so dark. One of them got a lamp and they went down below. They saw a damp old cellar with what was apparently a door in one side bricked up, and on another side they saw a wide bench standing the length of the cellar and on this the first thing they noticed was a box, cubical in shape, about one foot high, with what looked like a piece of tubing about three inches in diameter protruding from one side, and wires leading out from the other connected with what looked as. though it might be a modification of a storage battery underneath the bench. There were test-tubes, flasks, and other chemical and electrical ap- paratus on the bench also. They heard the voice again, sounding as though it were excited, directing them to place the box they saw on the table so that the tube in the side pointed to a certain spot on the cellar walls, and to turn the control rheostat on the side of the box up gradually. This they did, and when they turned it on first, a stream of red rays shot out from the tube and slowly changed in color to a pecu- liar shade of violet, as they manipu- lated the rheostat. The voice then li fic: lE,2:'5i 1 ' 3 , I I HE BEHCUN umm-:A nun-mr. Xxljvl directed them to keep the color of the rays at this shade until it told them to change. They held the rays at this shade for about Eve or six minutes when they suddenly no- ticed that the wall where the rays struck it looked as though there were a veil of some cloudy sub- stance over it. In the next Eve minutes the veil gradually grew darker and more opaque and took on shapes, begin- ning to look like a human form. In the next half-hour the form devel- oped more and more until they saw it was a man and, moreover, one who looked familiar. This man, whose voice was the voice they had heard at first, directed them to turn the rays slowly down to red and then off. This they did and the man stepped away and led them upstairs. He bade them sit down that he might give them an explanation. What they heard during the next hour covered a period of about twenty years and seemed more like a dream than a reality. It developed that this man was an old classmate of theirs, in college, who had always been thought rather queer and who was continually dabbling in electric- ity, chemistry, and other sciences. He told them he had worked for eighteen years on an idea he had conceived in college and had finally found a way to transform matter in- to different substances and even to make it invisible by turning it to a gas. He said that he had also per- fected a device by which he could start the apparatus going, make himself invisible and go off and come back in a certain length of time, ac- cording to how he set the device and the machine would automatical- ly turn itself on and send forth the rays necessary to change him back to his original form once more. He told them that one day he had done this and, setting the machine for a few hours later, had gone off, but when he came back the machine didn't turn itself on. Something had happened to the regulating device. He couldn't work the machine by hand, for he had to be a certain dis- tance away before the rays would act and the strange sounds the neighbors had heard during the last two years had been himself trying to repair the apparatus. He could work only a little while each day, however, for he had to be out try- ing to End a chance to get food most of the time, as he didn't dare speak out and ask anyone for it. He said that he had very nearly repaired the automatic device and had spoken to them only because he had seen they were interested. He said that this machine might be of great benefit to human kind if he published the secret but some evil mind might adapt it as a terrible all-powerful instrument of war as might easily be done. He said, Since this is true and on account of the accident I had, showing how unsafe it is to depend on it, I am going to destroy the machine and burn up my notes. I will tell you this much, however: the machine works on the assump- tion of the electronic theory of mat- ter that by tearing away or add- Page Fifty-Seven it if t 'far' 'fu' 'K K7 learn sum 47 ing electrons, elements might be changed to different elements. He then took them downstairs again and gave them a demonstration making a stone disappear by the use of the green rays, and reforming it out of nowhere, apparently, again. The next day he destroyed the box and other apparatus and burned all his notes and calculations, saying that he was through forever with such things. Soon he left with the two and the village of La Salle has heard no more ghosts. JOHN MURRAY, June '21, THE OLD INDIAN'S STORY. CD T was Just about dusk as I followed my chum along the trail made earlier in the TIM-3 morning by our Indian guide, :gf 'il Kanaka. The strides he took on his snow-shoes were very large and mine seemed so infantile in comparison, that I felt ashamed, and thought Dr. Hutchinson quite right in telling me that New York was not the place for me to regain my health, but God's country, where I could get exercise and untainted, fresh air. So when my chum, jean Le Monte, had suggested that I spend the winter with him and his fathers' trappers instead of the usual school, I was more than willing to go. . Although unused to the severity of northern winters, I was not great- ly affected by snow-blindness, so common to the tenderfoot. With the first heavy snowfall, which heralded the coming of winter, the great Page Fifty-Eight wilderness was covered with a glit- tering blanket of snowg pure white for miles and miles,-a great un- ending silence , not a sound to break that beautiful stillness, save the cries of those animals, which Nature had placed there as a part of her dazzling white world. I was startled from my reverie by jean, who, turning a beaming face toward me and pointing straight ahead, said, Look, And I did, with joy, for just ahead in a grove of spruce and balsam, was the welcome glow of the camp-fire, and kneeling beside it, Kanaka. The breeze wafted the delicious odor of venison steaks to our nostrils. With keen expectation, we hastened to prepare for supper. After our meal was Hnished and our dishes were washed, I lounged comfortably on a blanket beside the fire, and it seemed as though the red and yel- low tongues of flame painted fan- tastic figures in the branches over- head. Our guide said nothing but kept gazing steadily into the fire. The only signs that he lived were the tiny puffs of smoke he emitted from his mouth, and the glow of the burn- ing tobacco in the bowl of his pipe. After a while the moon rose and covered, with a silver coat, the bosom of the lake to the right of our camp. To the left was heard a weird noise, which seemed to have come from the timber. I wondered then why it was the Indian smiled a grim smile as he looked across the lake at the moon painting every crystal snowflake silver. Then again ug 15:1 ugisgl THE BEFICUN RK. v Lf, norm wo-nm.. l his face became impassive and re- suming his pipe, he stared into the fire. I looked at Jean and knew by the look in his eyes that now was the time to approach Kanaka for a story, so I said, Kanaka, tell us something about that moon. A grunt for an answer, and, knowing its import, I awaited his pleasure. Again that awful cry, but this time farther away and greater in volume. The hunting pack was gathering. Kanaka rose and threw a few sticks of wood on the fire, then with a word about the trapping on the morrow, he began. Many moons ago when I was quite a young man, I married the little maid, Seepiwisk, and displeased my father, then at war with Seepiwisk's father. Hoping to kill so unfaithful a son, my father pushed me down the gorge at Lac Etoile. Then with my right leg broken, I might have died had not Pierre Le Monte, jean's father, the factor at La Pierres' House, happened by that way and putting me on his sledge, brought me home and cared for me until I could walk again. The following spring, when the ice broke on the lakes and streams, I took my canoe and paddled for five days, until I came to Lac du Brochet, where I left Seepiwisk, but I found only the remains of my lodge. Then I was greatly incensed at my father, and for many moons would not see him, although he repented and wish- ed to see me. But after my father died and went to the Happy Hunt- ing Grounds, his spirit came to visit me one night and said in a voice like a roaring torrent: 'You condemn your father unjustly. I did not slay Seepiwisk, for I repented and for- gave both you and Seepiwisk's father. A big wolf-pack with great hunger killed her and the Great Spirit of the Moon in his kindness made her the Spirit of the Lake.' Then I was very sorry for what I had said about my father and asked the Great Spirit of the Moon for revenge. A grim smile flitted across Kan- aka's wizened features. The savage instinct which God has given the red man caused it, for the next in- stant that terrible agonized howl rent the air. Kanaka rose and I fol- lowed. He went over to the first trap we'd set, grinning horribly, his wrinkled features distorted into a half smile, half sneer. In the trap was a gray timber wolf, its yellow fangs bared, the quivering flanks and prominent ribs showing only too plainly the cause for this wary creature's plight. The guide shot it, stooped and deftly skinned it with his hunting knife and slowly walked back to camp. Jean had a cheerful fire when we returned and was wrapped up in his blanket beside it looking much like an overgrown papoose. Kan- aka and I soon followed his example. As I lay there on my back, the wind soughing in the branches, the moon a silver disk with myriad stars in its train, I heard a wolf howl, and it seemed as though it came straight from the moon across the frozen lake.

U Here was she, Martha Ken- now t at jerry a tr1e to interest nedy, getic girl in her class, doomed to a life of inactivity. Doomed to sit here in this lonely hut and wait for something to happen. Why had this thing come to her? Why should she, who longed to be up and doing, to face hardships and to over- come difficulties in the big world, be forced to remain inactive here in this lonely valley? La Palma de la Mano de Dios, was what the Mexi- cans called it. What a name, to be sure! The Hollow of God's Hand. She had never felt farther from God before in all of her life. Surely, if there were a just God, if there were any God, she would not be alone here on this lonely desert. She had no work, no interest, nothing. She could do nothing, be nothing but an invalid doomed to sit and think. Think! What could she think of except that she had had a chance to make something of her- self and that her health had deserted her just at the critical moment and here she was on this lonely desert trying to regain her health while the others of her class were in town working and playing. She had no company, for she was far from her own home and she had not made friends with the village folk. The only person whom she saw very often was her brother, jerry, who was surveying in the the brightest, most ener- Przge Sixty her in the children of the village. He had even gone so far as to suggest that she start a kindergarten here instead of in the city as she had planned. But she could not think of that. These children were dirty and repulsive and so she disregarded the fact that they were the ones who needed her most. One day, sometime after she had arrived at the conclusion that there was no use for her to live-that she would just give up, jerry asked her to go riding with him. When they arrived at the place where Jerry was working she decided that she would ride a bit farther. On and on she wandered until the sun sank low in the west and she knew that she must return. But she had ridden far from the trail and return seemed almost impossible. She tried several paths but none seemed to be right. Finally, just as she was giving up hope she saw a light in the distance. Pressing on quickly, she came to a hut and found an old prospector who had toiled many years in the valley and its surrounding mountains. As she and her horse were both tired she decided to wait here until her bro- ther came to End her. The prospector talked of many things, of his work, and of the moun- tains but most of all of the desert valley. It is, indeed, he said, La 'Q 5,151 'Q::7f:. X W, X f ' Palma de la Mano de Dios. Many has it restored to health by its magic air and many are the souls it has taught the way of life. Some be- moan their fate when they must come here, but few, indeed, are they who do not learn the lesson of the desert and become content. What! cried Martha. Are there others, too, who are forced to live in this awful desert? Who must wear their lives away with nothing to do, nothing to see and nothing to live for? Ah, my child, so you, too, need to learn the desert's lesson. Each day brings some new task from God. He never sends more than one can do, but he expects it to be done. Each day there are new beauties to see and new friends all around you. And, if you take the days, just one at a time as they are sent, and make the best of each, things will be brighter and the valley will be truly -La Palma de la Mano de Dios. Martha sat for a long time looking out into the desert night and think- ing. It was beautiful, but she had never before noticed it. She had been too busy thinking about her- self to notice the beauty around her. As she and jerry rode home, she told him that she had decided to start a kindergarten in the valley. She is there now, teaching a group of cheerful, happy children and learning more herself, of La Palma de la Mano de Dios. - Myrtle Trowbridge, june, '20.

They lied, those dreary ones who sang of you. Or being old, they did not understand That on such loveliness as yours, God's hand Had set its seal, for see how heaven's own blue Shines in your eyes! A man would not suppose, Until he saw the glory of your hair, That even God could make a thing so fair, And like a song your beauty ever grows. Then Lady Lilith lifted up her eyes, And gazed upon the eager fool who used Her serpent-name so sweetly in his rhyme.

But what delightful bliss! When tenfold come The birds, the buds and flowers. Then 'tis Spring, Real fruitful spring that brings not only one But hundreds, thousands of real living things.

At our regular meetings we exchange ideas and discuss the merits of the various types of cameras, and how to manipulate them to the best advantage. An admirable feature of this club is its social activity. When the weather permits, we combine work with pleasure by going on hikes and taking pictures. At other times we devote our attention to the de- velopment of pictures and to blue-print work. We have a large group of enthusiastic members and have accomplished a great deal in the line of photographic art work.

At this critical period of the world's history, such men are in great demand. How many great thoughts have gone unheard because the thinker lacked the necessary poise to face an audience, or the necessary training to address his audience, so as to get his thoughts across ! And why must this be? Lack of experience? There is absolutely no necessity for that here, for in Room 114, every Thursday, at 3 P. M., thirty or forty live, active, joking, real fellows-leaders in other activities of the school-meet, with a regular coach and sponsor, to take advantage of the opportunities offered for a start in public speaking, extemporaneous talks, criticism, parliamentary practice, and in debating. The reputation that the Webster-Hayne Society has gained in de- bating is anything but a secret, but the other side of the work is hardly less important, though less spectacular. We are always on the lookout for new members, whether they be- lieve they have speaking ability or not. Green material has been de- veloped to successful form, as is shown by the Club's record, in winning seven out of eight debates. If you are interested, come to one of our meetings.

But we perceive a certain remoteness about stars: and un- deniably there are many lovely things near at hand. So as not to wander too far afield in our quest after the divine, we are taking up modern American poetry this year, and enjoying it greatly. Concerning the proverbial penny, we would say that it is not to be scorned. We have been saving all ours for our French orphan, and lately we were anxious to add an Armenian baby to our family. But our inten- tions were larger than our pocket-book until some one suggested that the money for our Beacon picture be used to start an Armenian fund. So, as a result, we can be represented in this issue only by our good wishes. Genie Hardie. ' ' 1 il a 'e P' 1 ix ,X ff I-xg 1, fy I J ' K. Ax X 9. ll' - 4-922421 adj f- v-' ff T- 3 Qi!

We believe that the study of Latin is a primary factor in obtaining this. In view of this we, in the Latin Club, have written to various promi- nent business men in St. Louis to give us the way in which the study of the Classics has helped them in their professions. The following are excerpts from some of the letters received: The study of Latin has been of very great service to me in a practical way in my profession. Most of the medical names, anatomical and scientific, and those of numerous drugs, etc. are either in Latin or have Latin derivation. -Harvey G. Mudd, M. D. The study of a language once in nearly universal use by the educated gives us an insight into the structure of all languages of its class, helps us to understand the meaning and derivation, and makes the acquisition of many other modern tongues easy and pleasant. Besides this, the Latin Literature is one of the wor1d's great literatures, and the opportunity to read it in the original is something whose value should not be under- estimated. -Authur E. Bostwick, Public Library. The study of Latin makes for broadmindedness, culture and the development of personality. Without these a doctor becomes a little better than an artisan or at best a scientist without human appeal. -H. W. Loeb, St. Louis U. Medical School. . Fanita Bohne. Page Ninety-Nine 'z' af?

Cleveland once more had a very successful basketball campaign 5 though not gaining the championship, we succeeded in finishing in second place. This makes the fourth consecutive year that the Blue and Orange has finished either in first or second place, a record of which old Cleveland may be proud and of which no other team in the Interscholastic League may boast. The only games lost were two, those being lost to the power- ful Soldan live. The team, however, displayed its superiority over the other teams in the League by compelling them to bow down before its clever team play and wonderful stamina. In response to Coach Drake's call for candidates a squad of fifty men reported for practice. Among those fifty men were Capt. Schlapprizzi and Walsh, the only two letter men remaining from last year. After working with this squad for a week on the rudiments of basketball, the squad was reduced to twenty-five of the most promising candidates. At the begin- ning of the season there was some doubt in the minds of the Cleveland supporters as to the ability of this year's team to keep up to the precedent set by Cleveland in the three preceding seasons. However, these doubts were soon allayed, for among the abundant material a number of capable men were found to fill the vacant positions. The pre-season workouts were marked by keen competition for the coveted positions on the Teamg and the enthusiasm of every member of the squad showed the desire to see Cleveland up and fighting for the title. To round the Team into shape for the coming campaign Coach Drake arranged a series of pre-season games with the different prep schools and civic organizations. The first game of this series was against the Tower Grove A. C., with us going down to defeat 23-17. The Team can claim excuse for this defeat, as our men had been working together only one weekg and this is not sufficient time to develop smooth team play. This alibi may be borne out by the fact that when we met again later in the season, we avenged ourselves, giving them a terrible drubbing, 47 to 12. The next game played was with Maplewood. The Blue and Orange players showed a powerful defense, holding the county lads without a field goal the first half. The only score Maplewood was able to make was one free throw. At the end of the half we were leading, 18-1. The second half Coach Drake used his second team and they aquitted themselves in an admirable manner, the final score being 30-8. Thym and Boverie played a most commendable game for Cleveland. Branch starred for Maplewood. Page One Hundred and Four .5 :rin 1517534 ' THE BEHCUN -W ---L wit A few nights later we bowed down before the older and more ex- perienced Holy Cross team, the game being close and hotly contested throughout, and the Holy Cross team finally winning out by a brilliant spurt the last few minutes of play, 19 to 15. The playing of Groerich and Schlapprizzi featured the work of the Team. SOLDAN-CLEVELAND. Sad to state Cleveland lost the first game of the Interscholastic season to the highly touted Soldan quintet, 33-11. The game was not so one- sided as the score may indicate, as the contest was bitterly fought from the beginning to the end. Soldan entered the battle with most of the advantages in her favor, having a team composed of four men of last year's championship five, all of whom had proven their mettle under fire, while on the other hand Cleveland had a comparatively inexperienced team, three of the men playing their first Interscholastic game. Gold and Brown gained advantage by having on its team men out-weighing our men by many pounds to the man. But it cannot be said that Soldan had the advantage in grit, for it was purely through grit and determina- tion that the Team was able to withstand the Soldan attack in the later stages of the game. Cleveland drew first blood by caging the ball in the first minute of play. The score was soon evened, when Long shot a basket from mid- floor. Then for the next ten minutes a bitter battle was waged, Soldan gaining a slight edge, but soon the strength and weight of the Gold and Brown began to tell on our light Team. From this on the Gold and Brown steadily increased its lead, mainly thru the efforts of Long and Stevenson. The half ended with Soldan leading, 15-5. The rest between halves did the Team a world of good, for it re- peated its brilliant performance of the early stages of the first halfg hold- ing Soldan on even terms for the first few minutes of play, only to weaken before the gigantic offense launched by the Gold and Brown. Long, the Soldan pivot man, repeatedly broke through the Blue and Orange defense to cage the ball. It was in this stage of the game that the team showed its grit, for fighting like tigers the fellows managed to hold the Gold and Brown in check the remainder of the game. The steady and consistent playing of Capt. Schlapprizzi and Boverie featured for Cleveland, while Long, Stevenson and Gazzolo played best for Soldan.

Cleveland staged a comeback on the following Saturday, by complete- ly out-playing the Central five in every department of the game, defeating them handily, 18-12. The team was able to show to a better advantage than it did against Soldan, the team play being smooth and up to the standard with the defensive work the outstanding feature. Central was able only to shoot one field basket during the first half. The score would have been larger had our forwards been able to locate the basket, as they missed many open shots. Immediately after the opening of the half, Schlapprizzi caged the ball after we had carried it down the floor by some pretty team work. We were unable to score again for sometime though having the ball con- tinually in the Red and Black's territory. When Central did have pos- session of the ball, they rarely carried it beyond the middle of the court as our five-man defense proved too great a barrier. The team gradually increased its lead, and when the whistle blew for the end of the half, we were leading, 9-3. In the second half, Central changed its style of play, seeing that the attempt to break through our defense in the first half was futile. Instead of attempting to get beneath the basket and take short shots, the Red and Black players employed the long shot, shooting from the center of the court. These tactics proved more successful, for they came within a basket of tying the score. The Team, spurred on by the rally of the Red and Black. took a spurt and pulled the game out of the fire. From then on the outcome was never in doubt. Capt. Schlapprizzi and Thym were the mainstays of the Cleveland offense, while Boverie's work on the defense was superb. Wassal and Hebberger showed the best form for Central. THE LIN E-UP. CLEVELAND CENTRAL Groerich C01 .............,. ............ R . F. ........... ................

Thym, whose steady improvement and whose showing against Central warranted him a position on the Team, and Barthel, who was displaying rare form in the practice sessions, lined up with the Team. Page One Hundred and Stix N sz 4 JM The wisdom of this change was demonstrated by the much improved style of play displayed against Yeatman. Yeatman was conceded the best chance to win by most of the critics. However, this dope was upset. The Orange and Blue triumphed in the most exciting and thrilling game staged this season. The game was one thrill from start to finish, the brilliant work of both teams keeping the fans constantly on edge. IE f-in ,5 '7' C .p,' Mona sz.w-wsu. In the first five minutes of play neither team was able to score, the ball hovering about mid-court, owing to the fact that both teams were playing a tight defensive game. Finally, Roettger of Yeatman, succeeded in breaking loose and shooting a basket from mid-field. A minute later Schlapprizzi dribbled past the Yeatman guards and getting a basket, tied the score. The game see-sawed, back and forth for the remainder of the half, the lead being held first by one team and then by the other. How- ever, through the consistent efforts of the Team we held a one point margin at the end of the first half, the score being 11 to 10. At the beginning of the last half the Team, fired by the determination to retain the lead and win glory for Old Cleveland, completely out played the Yeatman lads. The speedy team play apparently dazzled them, but alas the wonderful spurt proved to be for naught. Though we were rain- ing shot after shot on the opponents' basket, the ball refused to go through the ring. This misfortune temporarily weakened our moraleg on the other hand it acted as a tonic for the Yeatmanites. Regaining their con-I fidence and taking advantage of the breaks, they began an offense which nearly proved to be the undoing of Cleveland, as they were able to forge ahead and retain the lead until the last half minute of play. In the last two minutes of play with Yeatman leading, 20-18, the Team made a last superhuman effort to regain the lead and when a foul was called on a Yeatmanite, the ever reliable Schlapprizzi proved equal to the situation. He caged the ball, bringing the Blue and Orange within one point of ty- ing the score. Play was resumed, a minute and a half remaining, time slipped away, and our hopes seemed doomed as Yeatman appeared master of the situation. Only one-half of a minute remained for Yeatman to be proclaimed victor, but they failed to reckon with Cleveland's dauntless spirit. The unusual happened, Thym broke up a Yeatman pass, dribbled down the floor, passing the Yeatman guards, and took a shot at the basket, but missed, and catching the ball on the rebound he succeeded in placing the play thru the net. Before the ball could be placed in play again, the whistle blew, giving Old Cleveland a hard earned victory, 21 to 20! Every man on the team played a faultless game, but the credit for the best work goes to Capt. Schlapprizzi, scoring thirteen of the twenty-one points made by Cleveland. The defensive work of Boverie was above par. Weinel and Roettger shone for Yeatman. Page One Hundred and Seven If Irfan IEFF5' Eff .ml ,War ,L , 5 lj of THE LINE-UP.

Davidson COD MCKINLEY-CLEVELAND Three weeks intervened between the Yeatman and McKinley games, one of which was an open date and the following two weeks the flu ban interfered with the schedule. During this time a change in the coaching staff was made, Mr. Fenenga taking charge of the squad, and relieving Mr. Drake for track work. The new coach immediately won a warm spot in the hearts of all the boys, while on the other hand they regretted to see Mr. Drake leave, for his ability to handle boys held him in high esteem. Still, as it was necessary to develope a track team as well as a basket ball team, the change was effected. During the Hu ban no practice sessions were held, but on the Monday when school opened, the squad got to work to prepare for the McKinley game. All of the men were in good condition and the wrinkles, caused by the lay-off, were ironed out in quick order leaving the team in great con- dition for the fight. The game lacked excitement as it proved to be Cleveland's easiest. The Orange and Blue was not forced to extend itself as the superior skill and team work baffled the Red and White from the outset. Our defense again showed it was the best in the League, excepting that of the title holders. The Red and White was able to make only one field goal under the basket, throughout the entire game, the rest being made from mid-floor or the near vicinity. Another feature, the Team for the First time displayed a consistent scoring punch. The middle of the last half the Coach sent in most of the second team men and they showed to good advantage. The final score, 29-19. For the Blue and Orange, Barthel, Boverie and Schlapprizzi acquitted themselves in tip-top style. Schellig and Schoffering featured the work of the Red and White Team. SOLDAN-CLEVELAND. The second round gained Cleveland another chance at the title, but Soldan proved its superiority by capturing the first game, 28-15. Cleve- land showed a much improved team, giving the Soldan five its first real opposition of the season. During the first half the Team held the Gold and Brown in check, playing a purely defensive game. This style of play proved very effective, Page One Hundred and Eight 'r lgzlil IEITJC THE BEHCUN J' vi f' 'W Nil L Soldan being able to score only four Field goals. The tight defensive work seemed to throw the Gold and Brown off its stride, for soon after the opening of hostilities, their team work was slow and ragged. The first half ended with Soldan leading, 12-5. At the beginning of the last half with the Team encouraged by the success of holding Soldan in check, and the determination to avenge the previous defeat at the hands of the Gold and Brown, began' a whirlwind offense, coming within a few points of tying the score. Soldan, however, stopped our attack and immediately began an offense of its own, display- ing the best article of offensive basketball seen on our floor this year. Their marvelous pass work, seemingly bewildered the Blue and Orange, and before the frantic efforts of the Team could check them, they had rolled up a comfortable lead. The remainder of the game, they were held in check, but the damage had been done. The men who stood out prominently for the Blue and Orange were Boverie, Capt. Schlapprizzi, and Thym, Soldan's stars being Long Stevenson and Gazzola. THE LINE-UP. CLEVELAND SOLDAN Thym f2j ...........................,. -,, ......,.,............ L.

Cleveland captured the final game of the season from Central, 21 to 19. The Coach, in the first half, started off the second team to give them a chance to display their ability under fire. They acquitted themselves in a commendable manner holding Central on even terms, partly through the efforts of Gammeter. the lanky lad getting four field baskets. The score at the end of the half was, 10-10. The last half, the first string men replaced the second team. They, however, had an off day, playing poor and ragged basket-ball. Some blame, though. may be laid to the fact that three men, Barthels, Thym and Walsh were playing with minor injuries. Despite the poor showing made, the Team was able to put over a victory. The playing of Boverie and Thym saved the day for the Blue and Orange. Newsome and Matthews featured for the Red and Black. PROSPECTS. The outlook for the 1920-21 season is unusually bright. From the present indications it is safe to predict that Cleveland will win her third Interscholastic championship. Although we lose three men through grad- Page One Hundred and Ten news- legi- - -1-.Jenin THE BEHCUN ,Q ja'-L X use :L n s. KLVXL uation, their places can be filled by men who played with this year's second team. Captain Schlapprizzi will be back at his old position at center. Many fans feel that Schlap was the best center in the League this year, as his floor work was superior to that of every other pivot man in the league. Eddie Barthels only commenced to find himself this year. Much can be expected of this young speedster next season. Gammeter is almost certain to be found at a forward position. His height will stand him in good stead. Weilbacker and Groerich will be working hard next year. Both show promise, but have been inclined to be erratic. Another year will do much toward steadying them down. Sybert is one of the best floor men in school, but is somewhat handi- capped by his lack of size. He should prove very effective as a running guard. Lloyd Stanwood should make someone hustle for a guard position. He is one of the hardest workers on the squad. Rhinehardt has been working at center and made a capable understudy for Schlapprizzi. He can play any position and is certain to fill in as a regular. Johnson, another forward, made a very good impression in all the games he participated in, and although he is only a youngster a bright future may be predicted for him. BASEBALL PROSPECTS. The prospects for the coming baseball campaign are very much in doubt, as at the time of this writing practice sessions had not got under way. However, we may emphatically state that the outcome depends largely upon two things: the development of a. dependable hitting power and the ability to produce a reliable hurler. Last season our nine was considered one of the classiest organizations in the Interscholastic League, the fielding and the pitching being superb. But we were forced to accept a low standing, due to our woefully weak work at bat, many a splendidly played game being lost by a one run margin. However, this fault may be remedied this season, if Gragg and Schlapprizzi can return to their 1918 form, for both men hit near the .300 mark that year. Then too Scannell, the former Loyola lad, must live up to his reputation. He is reputed to be a mighty slugger. The pitching proposition is a more complex problem to solve as we have not the nucleus on which a reliable staff can be built. Every member of last year's staff has left school, the only hope being that some Dark horse will appear on the scene. The outfield appears to be the best fortified department on the team. The acquisition of Scannell and Krause will help, for both come to us Page One Hundred and Eleven :ffl I I ' I 'HE BE F1 DUN git!! usnru su-al. highly recommended. These two with the men of last year's squad of which Stanwood, Herring, Starkloff, and Walsh still remain, should com- prise the most formidable outfield in the League. The infield should cause the Coach no worry, as he has a splendid aggregation to work with. Schlapprizzi, shortstop and Groerich third baseman, regulars of last year's nine, will be on hand to resume their old positions. The vacancy at second base should be capably filled by either Herring or Sybert, both men playing substitute roles at this position the previous year. The fight for first base should prove an interesting one. Boverie, Gammeter, and Weilbacker being the candidates. Of this trio, Boverie appears to have a slight edge, on account of the experience he gained last year, serving as our understudy to Vinefurt. Capt. Gragg will again be seen behind the bat. As a catcher Gragg has no peer in Interscholastic circles. He possesses a wonderful arm, is a quick thinker, and has the knack of keeping the Team on its toes, these being the attributes of a good catcher. Starkloff will serve as second string catcherg he is a capable man and should Fill in well in case of an injury to Gragg. TRACK PROSPECTS. Cleveland's hopes for a championship suffered a severe shock when the three mainstays of the Team, Captain Mueller, Edgington and Trumn, left school. With these men Cleveland could have expected the most suc- cessful track season in the history of the school. But even with the loss of these stars Cleveland's chances are not completely shattered, as all the other schools have lost many of their stars through graduation, and with the abundance of material on hand a good team might be turned out. The Senior team has a number of capable men. Novak, who dis- played exceptional form in the 440 and 880 last year, will be again seen in these events. Novak should be ably assisted in the 880 by Rhinehardt and Groerich. Schlapprizzi, Barthel, Deffaa and Rhinehardt will probably be the dash men. The ability of these men is unknown, with the exception of Barthel, but they should give a good account of themselves from the indications of their preliminary workouts. The only mile man on the squad to date is Bentrup. He also runs the 880 in fast time. Hannauer, Johnson and Clark show promise of making trouble for the other hurdlers in the League. Hannauer showed much promise last year, having almost perfect form. If he can develop speed between hurdles he should gain a place in the spring meet. We should make fully as good a showing in the Field events as in the Track, having some very promising material. Nesbit and Sybert are showing good form in the pole vault. Nesbit gained a place in last year's Page One Hundred and Twelve gt , ,n lute.-,a THE BEIHIIDN lvl , :ornsui-m.i. meet and should repeat this year. This is Sybert's first attempt at pole vaulting. Gammeter and Kerckhoff should take care of the weights, both being powerful lads. Gammeter is also out for the high jump. Last year he gained a place and should gain a few points for Cleveland again this year. Deffaa and Schlapprizzi are expected to do something in the broad jump. Schlapprizzi especially should show well as he has an ideal build for that event. The standing of the junior team cannot be determined at so early a date for it has only three experienced men, and it would be unsafe to make a prediction, though the Coaches have some good material in process of development. The three men on whom the burden rests at the present time are Hathaway, Erickson and Naucke. Hathaway is a 440 and 880 man. He should capture first place in both events. Erickson is also a letter man from last year. His specialties are the sprints and hurdles and he is a mighty clever boy in both. Naucke is the third member of the trio, and though he is not a letter man, his rapid development should make him a dangerous man in the sprints and weights.

For the past few years this page has been taken up with enumerations of the methods by which points and awards could be obtained in the Girls' Athletic Association, but this time we are going to try to tell a little more in detail of the activities carried on under the auspices of the organization and less about the club itself. Miss Roos is our sponsor but the contemporary activities, basketball and kickball necessitated two coaches and so it was decided that Miss Roos should coach the former, Miss Varian the latter. We were greatly pleased to see the large number of girls who signed up for indoor baseball. In fact so large was our list that Miss Varian and Miss Roos will divide honors as baseball coaches, and the girls under each are keen to see who carries off the title. We take time now to ask each and every girl in this school to show their appreciation of peppy, healthy athletics by turning out to watch the games and supporting their own class teams, if they are not on them. There is a schedule of all athletic activities on the bulletin board in the girls' dressing room and, if you watch that, you will be able to keep yourself posted on the coming athletic events and games. Kick-ball, the first event this season, started out very well. This game is played along the same lines as baseball. Instead of the pitcher throwing the ball toward the batter, the basketball Qfor this is what is usedj is placed on the home plate and kicked off, the rest going as in baseball. The desirable kickball player is the girl who has the most force behind her 62 C's Oh, pardon! We mean 22 double A's! The kick-ball games were very exciting but as usual the audience which turned out to support the teams was pitiably small. The juniors were acclaimed title winners. The scores were: March 1. Freshman 11-Sophomores 7. March 8. Freshmen 16-Juniors 35. March 11. Sophomores 4-juniors 23. The Senior games were forfeited because the Seniors failed to appear as per schedule. The Basket-Ball season started with six months pent-up energy and vigor released. The First game was played on the stage floor March 9, but the Sophomores were too big for the little Seniors and the score was 26-3 in favor of the Sophs. The second game was played March 11 and resulted again in a Senior defeat, the final score being 16-11 in favor of the juniors, but they had to play hard to get the 4 extra points. Here is the secret. The Seniors would have been beaten worse than that had not some loyal Freshies turned out and rooted for them. Page One Hundred cmd Fourteen I lc1rtff,l lxa 'el E, 41.1, :own nu-mn NP' L We are planning a girls' field meet for the latter part of May and are practicing now so that we can proudly show off our athletic prowess to the rest of the school. We will have class events, Senior, junior, Sopho- more, and Freshman. Here are a few of the big eventsg running broad jump, high jump, ball throwing for distance, sprinting, relays and hurdle races. And Hnally, girls, if you have not been chosen to represent your class in any of the above events at least come out and give your class team some encouraging yells and we'll promise you enough excitement to make it worth while.
