'24 Dancing Club '23 HERMAN STIEI-ER Tatler Staff '23 Usher EUGENE W.ARNS Golf Club '23, '24 Hi-Y '23 President's Address WISH to speak directly to you forty-three students of. the january class of '25 who are about to graduate from this institution which forthe last four years has been instructor and guardian to you. You have all received a comparatively high degree of education. The ques- tion is are you going to make use of it? Your answer to this question will determine whether or not you will be a success and meet the problems of the world or be contented with your present lot in life. . There are three possible attitudes which you can take toward the training that you have received. 'First: You can refuse to let it be of service to you. The most important training that you have received during your high school course has been that of character building. You have beeninstructed in the principles of courage, honesty, and common sense. These traits will be of little value if you do not apply them to the situations that will arise in- your future life. Perhaps I could make this more definite by an illustration. Take for an example a man who for several years keeps his right arm tightly bound. At the end of that time should he attempt to use it as he had previously done he would find that it had become useless. In exactly the same way your mind will become valueless if you fail to continue exercising it as you have done in school. , . In the second place you can misuse your education in such a way that it will be a detriment to you. If it makes you so proud and vain that you are unable to put the proper valuation upon the realities of life then it wi-llvbecome more harm than good to you. . , V If the knowledge which you have received serves to make you believe that you are to be excused from effort in after life, that you are to be excused from contact with the world of men and events, then it will prove a curse and not a blessing. But, on the other hand, if you treat it as a means of rendering a larger amount of serviceg then it will have been a benefit to you. Your high school training here has conferred no privilege upon you. It has only placed before you the obligation to show yourself better able to do certain things that your fellow 'mates who have not had your advantages would have done. A i Obviously the third possible attitude which you may take toward your education is to use it to the highest and fullest extent. As in most of our cases this greatest use will be service and sacrifice in the business world. We are now approaching a period of great commercial prosperity and its success will depend entirely upon you. It is often said that your worth in the world both in the present day and in later life is judged by the amount of service that you render. Thus it should be our aim in the future to put our education to the highest use available, for through education man's resources are organ- ized, his powers developed, and he acquires control over himself and over nature. . LORRAINE NELSON. Fifteen Sixteen Ambition Ambition is a goal so far Toward which we've set our pace, That when we think we've gained it, There's one greater in its place. To be a senior was ambition To be now wears a shroud, While aspiration towers upward Above the highest cloud. And I am sure we're not so learned As we once thought we'd be, VVhen we had reached that honored stage Folks term seniority. We do not feel as wise or great As we did four years ago, For the hardest lesson we have learned Is how little we do know. Ambition is a tempered steel Which we have power to use, To bless or blight our human kind Whichever path we choose. He whose purpose is so low- To wound the friend so right,. Soon Finds his weapon rusty, His blade broken in the fight. He whose purpose soars on high Undimmed by selfish ease, Will wield a bright and spotless sword Whose light has power to please. West High, we truly love you For the kindness you have shown, You've raised our aspirations To the highest point e'er known. Not ease or selfish pleasure Must be our effort still- But, for the good of others- For you, West High, we will.

Even in the elementary school we were trying in a small way to control ourselves. We attempted to curb an unruly temper, or to overcome a desire to do something which we knew was wrong. Stop to think a moment. VVhat effect did the outcome of these struggles have? just this: they made us what we were four years ago when we entered high school. High school, in turn, presented to us totally new problems. Very few of us were adequately prepared to meet those new conditions. During these four eventful years just past we learned to make ourselves perform certain tasks regardless of whether or not they were distasteful. And because we have dis- ciplined our minds and bodies, to some degree at least we are entering an era of more profund and complex problems with which we are now more competent to cope because of our intellectual training thus far. Our task is not fully completed. There are still two vast worlds, business and college, which remain open to us as unexplored fields. Both will demand of us a higher degree of self mastery. We will find, however, that, provided we have an indomitable determination to make good, life will not lay upon us burdens larger than We are able to 'carry or problems impossible of solution. Even yet, as we become older, we will be striving to bring ourselves under control. Everywhere about us, today, the older generation are still trying to master themselves. Their steady plodding toward the goal, self mastery, should prove to us that it is not an attribute which we can acquire in a day, week, month, or year, but something which can be attained only by perpetual observa- tion of, and guarding against our shortcomings. I doubt if there are any of whom it can be said at the close of their life that they were complete masters of themselves, physically, mentally, and spiritually. , But you ask, if self mastery is a lifelong task and a person really never accomplishes it, why make the effort at all? My answer to this question is, consider the returns paid you every time you succeed., What are the dividends of 'self mastery? ' First: The ability to treat all people with equal courtesy, rendering our impulses subservient to our likes and dislikes. ' Second: The strength to overcome further difficulties with greaterease. Third: The accomplishment of the divine precept, Be temperate in all things. ' , Our Saviour is an exempliiication of perfect self mastery. But before we receive those returns we must stand on a firm foundation. A house built on sand will fall when the storms rage, the house built on solid rock withstands the elements. Close contact with God, our Maker, provides a mighty fortress. We must not acquire self mastery for our exclusive beneht, but for Ye general good. How may we attain self mastery? I believe by adhering to four vital essentials, namely, self analysis, self restraint, patience, and endurance. If we but emulate the life of Christ we will have acquired a high degree of self mastery. . i -VVILMA TRAPP.

' , A To Bob Streitler, Don Inman bequeaths his knack of forming steadfast and most loving friendships. r Mary Jacobson leaves her debating ability to Coleen Meredith.

Twenty l The Senior Play The january class of '25 presented as it Senior production, Gwen Davis' Icebound, the Pulitzer prize play of 1922. The cast was exceptionally well chosen and fitted into their characters with a naturalness that was nothing short of remarkable. The play was unique in its opportunity for all in the cast to win plaudits from the audience. The characterizationsrwere perfect and were commented on by newspapers that stated the play was given in an almost pro- fessional manner. Charlote Dickson, as Jane, made a very Winsome and sincere little leading lady. Don Inman as Ben-Jordan, the handsome hlacksheep of the family was very convincing in his role, and the two leads made an excellent foil for the grasping, cold-hearted jordan family. V Devir Gray as Henry Jordan, Edith Lietz as Emma his wife, and Rose Norton as Nettie his daughter were excellent. Devir Gray left nothing to be desired as the harassed man of affairs and Edith Leitz could not have been better than the domineering, gossipy Emma who had married into the Jordan family. Rose Norton was a bewitching little flapper. Margaret Hickadon as Sadie Fellowes, a widow and her son Orrin played by Stuart Derrickson were quite the hit of the show and brought down the house time after time. Mollie Lagar portrayed 'fElla the old maid sister who would buy even a man, and was almost professional in her characterization. Fred Norris as the doctor and Joe Brindley as the judge who loves Jane and despises the mercenary Jordans were both dignified and outstanding in their roles. Isabel Koenneman as the old servant Hannah was both interesting and amusing in a minor part that she made tremendously important in the play. The scenery and lighting effects added much to the play and much credit is due the Art Class, Mr. Ogden and others. Mrs. Mattison is to be complimented on this fine Senior play.

And a Blue-Eyed Siren TALL youth draped himself lazily over the locker door and watched with amused interest the articles that came flying out. I'll say this much for you, Jean, it's a miracle the Way you can get so much stuff into one locker. Sherlock Holmes, himself, couldn't find anything in this locker. I'll bet that Mary walked off with my bathing cap. A bathing suit emerged along with a rubber and a geometry book. It isn't heref' wailed the owner of a curly head. ' Oh, well, whatcha care about an old bathing cap ? drawled the locker or- nament. Care? the curly head snapped out of the locker and two brown eyes blazed up at him. Care? Well, I don't happen to have a dollar and a quarter to spend on a marcel every day. fNow you see the heroine of this story has a 31.25 curly head.l She began to tug the junk shop assortment back into the locker, aided by the languid youth. He held the rubber in his hand and gazed at her thoughtfully. Say, Jean, have you seen the bulletin board yet? No! , Just got here. What's it say? Well, the basketball team is posted ! She dropped the geometry book. Oh, Bill, and you made it? He ran his Finger nervously around the edge of the rubber. Well, Perkins thought-oh well, he put Tompkins in for forward. So you let yourself get beat again, didn't you ? Oh, Tompkins is a fine fellow. b Oh, you make me so tired, Bill Ferris, I could hit you. You try out for everything and get nothing. You're better than Tompkins, but Tompkins can fight, you can't! She stamped her foot. Look at you, six feet and hard as nails, but you can't iight. What's the matter with you? You let everybody get what you ought to have. She slammed her locker shut and turned the combination. . You're a quitter, Bill Ferris, and I hate quittersf' She started up the steps. He was puzzled, hurt. Well, I couldn't help it, Jean. You have never been able to help anything since I've known you, Bill.- If you couldn't do things. I wouldn't care, but it hurts when you can and won't. VVell, but Jean, what can -I do ? Her fingers tapped restlessly on the stair railing, then she faced him resolutely. There's only one thing you can do-make the team. If you show some signs of being alive the coach will notice you. She paused, then continued. You will have to make the team, if you ever expect to have another date with me. His face screwed up questioningly. You don't mean you won't go to the Senior dance with me if I don't make the team? - ' That's just what I do mean. But, but, Jean, I can't-- I date with no quitters, the girl said scornfully and ran up the steps. He took a step after her and stopped. The eight-thirty bell reminded him that he must hie himself to class. Women be hanged, he said, jamming his hands in his pockets. I'll show her. ' Twenty-four . I would like to relate now that our handsome hero dashed madly to work, became the brilliant star of the Madison quintet, and won the fair Jean, but alas, our hero had more than his share of spice in him and he turned for consolation, oh woe is me, to another woman. She was a pretty little thing who sat next to Bill in geometry. He surlily worked a problem for her. She turned her big blue eyes up to his and smiled a slow, sweet smile. How wonderful you are,'l she thrilled. It was a very simple problem, but then you know The light that lies in a woman's eyes and -well, you know the rest. Bill's injured ego quickly assumed its former proportions again. She smiled at him in study hall again. Such a sweet, pathetic little smile, he thought. just as he was leaving that night he met her at the door, staggering under a perfect load of text books. He quickly relieved her and she thanked him again with her sweet little smile. Poor Bill, if he had only known how long she had waited for him with that load of books. Of course, he asked her to the Senior dance. You are all familiar with that entrancing little ditty beginning VVon't you walk into my parlor, said the spider to the Hy. Bill was dancing with his blue-eyed siren when Jean came in, accompanied by Tompkins. She nodded to him and smiled. 'A' slow, consuming rage shook him Cah, 'tis getting melodramatic, eh, what?D Unknowingly he followed the pair around the gym Hoor. - They really don't need chaperoning, Bill, the lady of the blue eyes remarked all too sweetly. He flushed, but his eyes still followed the pair. Tompkins may have won the basketball position, but he wasn't going to have his girl, too. The blue-eyed lady did not exist for him the rest of the evening. He tried to get a dance with Jean, but her program was filled. He took his baby vamp home that night, and there ended the interlude of rebellion. Fate, having first made him a thing of scorn, now favored him with dazzling success in true feminine inconsistency. Tompkins broke his ankle and Bill Ferris received the position on probation. You're showing up better, Ferris, but if you ever slump, you will be pulled out immediately, was the brusk remark of Coach Perkins. Bill had made the team, but he had pride. He wouldn't call Jean for a date, not till he had won a gameg been under fire so to speak. His opportunity ar- rived after flirting with him for so long. The Madison quintet was playing Simpson on its own floor. It was nearly time for the final whistle, only forty seconds left. The ball shot back and forth rapidly, the score was 8 to 8. Bill was fouled and a free throw gave Simpson nine points to Madison's eight. Twenty seconds left. The Simpson center lunged a ball to a man almost directly back of Bill. He snagged it, dribbled it to the center of the floor, and shot a perfect basket. It was all over but the shouting, for all but Bill. Sup- pose we listen in with Central. Jean? Say, you haven't got anything on tonight, have you ? I do have a date but- Yes? I could break it-for you. 'Tm on my way. Twenty-fifve Me and My Boy Friends ' You can get in front of me, Mae, if you want to. ,.Boy, that soup smells good. ' No, the girl addressed as Mae said shortly. And she meant it for both remarks. Decidedly she did not want to talk to Ethel just now, and be sym- pathized with and felt sorry for. And how could anyone think about food when one's heart was broken. The lunch table was all abuzz about the Senior Formal. Mae's little group was' always the life of any social event, and their eyes never missed anything nor their ears either for that matter. My dear Cyou know how girls always begin. You just feel that some lovely little morsel of gossip is sure to followi did you know that Ray is taking Ella to the party? She has told everyone in school. I think it's amusing. Miau, miau, Mary, piped up another voice, you know you wanted to go with him. e . But, girls, isn't Mae in a terrible predicament ? remarked a young lady who was stowing away salad and rolls in a great hurry. I think it was idiotic to quarrel with Tommy at a time like this. Of course, he's provoking, but women must be patient. A sigh followed by a giggle swept around the table. But I tell you, Jane, something ought to be done. Here comes Mae now, and the poor child isn't eating enough to keep a bird alive. They all turned with one accord and looked at her. ' Well, she remarked, putting down her tray, haven't you ever seen me before P 'lWhy, of course, dear, cooed Jane. , , Betty, who had finished her salad and rolls, voiced the question the whole table was longing to ask. Mae, old dear, have you and Tom agreed not to disagree? Mae's spoon splattered in her soup. No, we haven't, she snapped. Oh! The subject was dropped, but Mae came upon Betty and Jane talking earnestly to Tom after lunch. She swept by them haughtily. The day dragged interminalbly for Mae. After school she helped with many others to decorate the gymnasium for the evening's social event. She draped the ribbon festoons with mournful enjoyment, but I am afraid that the punch was Havored with a few tears. The music was going to be wonderfulg she had a perfectly darling dress and then-iOh, she just hated Tom Weldon. A She was curled up on the davenport when the phone rang about seven o'clock. The phone is a wonderful invention. You never know what excitement or romance awaits you over the other end of the wire. . Ye-e-es ? Every girl knows that yes with the breath-taking little catch and hint of inquiry. Oh, it's only, Jane, dear, the voice said, but I have some thrilling news for you. Get on your frills and we'll be around for you in a bit. I have some- body here who is, just dying to take you to the dance. I-Ie's awfully nice and I'll vouch for him. We-e-ll, I don'ti- Come on, dear. He's dark and distinguished. I'd just show Tommy. All right. She flew up the stairs and was soon ready. When the car drove up, she was playing on the piano, a vagrant smile on her lips. Dark and distinguished! Mmrnmh! When she stepped into the car, Jane snapped on the light. Mae, I want you to know-- Twenty-six Tommy, said Mae, but she didn't sound so very surprised though she tried to seem angry and indignant. She turned to go. Aw, lissen, Mae, I'm sorry. Look what I brought you. It was a wonderful box of roses. i She buried her face in their glowing fragrance. Then she plumped down in the cushions and smiled mischievously and bewitchingly. Well, I did want to 'hear that orchestra play Me and My Boy Friend. Of course, it was a wonderful dance. 1 Popularity Versus Money Q ENNOX was a typical small western town concerned in its own local amusements, and undisturbed or perhaps peacefully unaware of the affairs of the outside world. The town had two places of which it was exceedingly proud, one, the large brick high school building erected two years before, where, as Grandma Perkins said, the younger generation acquired its larnin ' and its new fashioned notions. The other place of which the villagers were so justly proud was a beautiful mansion which had been erected on top of the only hill in town and gazed down upon its neighbors with haughty superiority. While Lennox citizens grudgingly admitted that old Chris Morgan had made good, in spite of former predictions, they openly admired and praised his pretty sixteen-year-old daughter, Madge. One cold January afternoon a merry group entered the Morgan home and made a wild rush for the fire place. This jolly band was more familiarly known as the gang, and their picnics, parties, and other good times were envied by every boy and girl in the town. Formerly there had been twelve in the gang but one of the members had moved to another city and they were searching about 'vainly for a new member. But their conversation, which had at first pertained to finding a suitable girl for the gang drifted to another topic even more interesting, the entrance of Patricia Errington into the high school. ' I don't like her, and I don't intend to have anything to do with her, an- nounced Madge Morgan, with an emphatic toss of her pretty head. Her clothes are a perfect scream.. That hat she wears is a disgrace to the town, said Babe Evans, as she complacently gazen down ,at her becoming dress. ' 'fA.nd imagine a niece of Miss I-Iattie's having such an aristocratic name as Patricia Erringtonf' exclaimed Vivian Carleton. Oh you girls are worse than a ladies' aid society, remarked Keith Huntoon. If it wasn't for her clothes and her aunt she'd be all right. She's the best looking girl in school. , You bet 'she is, was his cousin Jack's comment, but she's poor as a church mouse. Jack and Kieth were considered the two handsomest boys in school, so their opinions were generally approved of fby the girls of coursej. She may be good looking, sniffed Madge, but she's simply impossible. Well, we don't have to have anything to do with her, said Stanley Hartford, and they all nodded in acquiescence. ' Thus the gang voted Patricia Errington an alien. I On the other side of the village was a small, dingy, cottage, bare and ugly in the fading light of the winter afternoon. Within the cottage a beautiful girl was sitting by the stove gazing unseeingly at the pages of the book she held in her hand. T'we'nty-seven It isn't fair! she exclaimed suddenly. Just because they think I'm poor and the niece of the washerwoman, they all ignore mef' There, there, dearie, said Miss Hattie soothingly, as she carefully ironed one of Madge Morgan's exquisite party dresses. Why don't you tell them I'm only one of your mother's old servants, though that don't mean I ain't as good as they are even if I do take in washin's. If they knew as how your father was a 'rich man they'd all be a lovin' ye to death, she bitterly ended. Of course you're as good as any of those hateful old snobs and I shan't ever tell them you arenit my aunt. I've always been petted and had my own way just because my father was a rich man, but now I'm going to make them love me, just me, and not my money. If the gang only liked me it might be easier, but you wait, she laughed. I'll be the most popular'girl in school, yet, and a member of the gang too. I'll show them money isn't everything. It was two years later and the seniors of Lennox high school were presenting their class play. The auditorium was packed to its fullest capacity and there was continual laughter and chatter. Even the dignity befitting seniors could not conceal the excitement that the gang,' felt, for two of their members were playing leading parts. Dear Pat, I do hope she makes a hit, she's such a darling, said Madge excitedly. Jack's a lucky guy,', was Rex's brief comment. , Oh, it s beginning, cried Babe, and as the curtain rose the audience burst into a storm of applause, for Jack Huntoon, captain of the football team, was leading man and opposite him in the role of leading lady was-the most popular girl in school. Oh, well! Money isn't everything! ! ! , BOTHILDA MAHLER.

Thirty-sfix ' French Club i . The Entre Nous French Club has just finished its second successful semester of work. The first three meetings were combination business and social meet- ings. The club has selected a pin of clever design for its members. The entertaining ,programs given at these meetings were planned by the program committee. Probably the largest undertaking of the club was the French Club party. Over eighty students attended what was considered the best party of the semester. Many new and original ideas helped to make it an enjoyable evening. The club membership has grown rapidly. All students who have taken French are welcome to the latest and most progressive school organization. Radio Club The Radio Club, being handicapped by the graduation of half its members, devoted most of its time in buildingvup the membership. However, several important things were done. The Radio Broadcast was subscribed for to be used by the 'members in the library. The problem of electrical interference that is such a detriment to radio communication was taken up. The club held code practice so that its members might understand more of amateur radio. Many other minor things were done also. The Radio Club is young but expects, in the near future, to grow into one of the largest and best clubs of the school. Dramatic Club The Dramatic Club has made a very interesting study of Bernard Shaw's play, St. Joan. Holidays have coincided with days for which meetings were set aside and consequently their work has not been so extensive as it would have been with the regular number of meetings. The drama has been given in two different ways. The first scene was presented in a walking rehearsal and much credit is due May Estess, who played the part of Joan up to the time of the play. Frances Lewis gave the rest of the book in 'story form, reading the most interesting parts orally. Another historical paper was read on the dauphin by Ethel Ray. Although the meetings seemed few and far between, the ones held made up for those missed. - . e The Orchestra During the past semester, under the leadership and direction of'Miss Minter, the orchestra has made remarkable progress. Starting with a new director and after losing many of its members, the organization has advanced rapidly. At the present time some of the most interesting selections of standard and contemporary music are being studied, including Marche Caravalesquef' by Frimlg The Grand March, from The Queen of Shebe, by Gounodg Coro- nation March, from The Prophet, by Meyerbeer, and selections from the musical comedy, VVi1dfiower. The aim of the organization is to establish the first high school symphony in Des Moines, which, according to present indications, will be accomplished within the next two or three years. Thirty-seven Boys' Glee Club i s i During the last semester the Boys' Glee Club has made a great hit with the school. Owing to the fact that it is composed of athletes, their practice was changed from after school to before school so the boys could practice football after school. N Miss Minter has about fifty boys enrolled and would like to have more next semester. The boys gave one concert at an assembly which went over with great success. The boys are now practicing on the following songs for future concerts. Absent, Sylvia, Nut Brown Maiden, and Our Boys.Wi1l Shine Tonight. t Kyle Club , The Kyle Club has been more active this year than in the years previous. A campaign for better scholarship was sponsored by the club and much agitation was created to -raise the standards of scholarship in the school. The semi-annual banquet was held at Harris-Emery's, January 2. About twenty-five of the alumni turned out and everybody enjoyed themselves. A very clever toast program was a feature of the entertainment. I The officers for this semester were: Ruth Goodell, president, Harry Hoak, vice president, Colene Meredith, corresponding secretaryg Marjorie Irwin, recording secretarygand Grace Larsh, treasurer. The Kyle Club believes it has really had a very interesting, worth-while year and accomplished something definite and constructive in the school. Pythagorean The Pythagorean Club is a mathematics club for boys and girls interested in peculiar problems. Once in a while a report on great mathematicians is given in the meetings but the greater part is taken up with catch problems. At one meeting a cross number puzzle was worked out. Most of the present members are juniors, and as none of the members are graduating, they should have a good start for the new semester. All Pythagoreans cordially invite math sharks and others to enjoy their club with them. . Chinquilla The purpose of the Chinquilla Club is to promote athletics. When this semester began, there were only a few members, but a membership drive was held and this increased the number in the organization. The girls in the club enjoy baseball,.swimm.ing, hiking, and many other health giving forms of recreation. The Chinquilla Club is one in which every girl should be, and we wish the club all the success in the world. Thirty-eight 1 Editor .............................. Assistant Editor. Faculty .........

QF 'EE ES West Beats Winterset 4640 p T On Sept. 27, West High's football team opened its season at Winterset by trouncing its rivals 46-05 this being' the second victory in as many starts against this school. West High expected a hard game for we had a green team which was built around Jack Barnes and Bob Streitler. The field was muddy but the boys gave Winterset a great surprise when they won the toss and took the wind at their backs and marched for a touchdown after Barnes and Hood had completely startled all Winterset by the plunging and the shifting, dodging end run of Hood. The half ended with West on the long end of the score of 20-0. In the last half West opened an aerial attack .and ran over its opponents for four more touchdowns. Two of the counters were made by Onthank, who raced 73 yards for one of them after picking up a sleeper. Barnes, Hood and Onthank were the outstanding stars of the game on the offense while Richardson, Searcy and Summers played a star game on the de- fense.

West Downs Old Rivals West High was visited by their old rivals at the 'Drake Stadium' on Oct.. 4. Boone had an old and experienced team but were unable to stop our much lighter and less experienced team.- Although West was always on the long end of the score the game was never on the ice and was a battle from start to the finish. Captain Barnes led his men on a great defensive game. The first touchdown was a result of football plunging, and passing with Barnes and Hood taking the ball for long runs. Finally the former going over for a marker. This completing the scoring for the first half.- In the second half West opened an aerial attack which resulted in a 46-yard pass, Hood to Barnes for a touchdown. The other touchdown was the result of an intercepted pass by Streitler. The stars were- Searcy and Streitler on the line, while Hood and Barnes performed well in the backiield.

Although Grinnell has never beaten West High it looked as though our time had come for, for although the boys were trying hard they could do nothing. The game was nearly over when the score was 7-3. The coach, seeing that his men had less than a minute to play, sent in his ace in the hole CTommy Atkinsj, who got on the long end of two passes from Hood, and with only thirty seconds to- play these passes were good for a touchdown. The outstanding stars of the day were Hood with his brilliant passing, and Barnes with his plunging and kicking. The lineup : B Grinnell West Gill ......... .... L . E. .... Maxey Appleby . .. ....

Forty-nine West Downs Fort Dodge 9-0 October 25 West High and Fort Dodge staged their annual battle at the Western League Park. The team showed the old school fight and from the first whistle it was a real battle, but early in the game the boys carried the ball well down the field and were forced to punt or place kick, but the educated toe of Jack Barnes came through with a nice thirty-eight yard place-kick. This was the end of the scoring until late in the third period when our boys carried the ball down the field to the nine-yard line where Don Hood followed a fine interference around left end for a touchdown, but Barnes missed the point afterwards. The work of Searcy, Hood and Barnes was the big factor of the day, although the whole line deserves credit for its great work on the defense. The lineup : Fort Dodge West High Brown ......... ....

Fifty West-Roosevelt Game West staged its first city-series game with Roosevelt at the Drake Stadium, November 8, 1924. On account of over-confidence West did not play its usual steady game with the Old West High iight and Roosevelt put over two touch- downs at the close of the second quarter. West came back in the second half and took its opponents off their feet with a great offense. Our first touchdown came from the result of Atkins falling on a fumble on Roosevelt's four-yard line. From this point Barnes plunged over for a touchdown. The playing was in Roosevelt's territory, but West did not threaten their goal until late in the fourth quarter when a pass, Barnes to Onthank good for thirty yards brought the ball to the 1'ifeen-yard line, where Roosevelt braced and held for downs. First down was missed by a fraction of an inch. Savage then gave us two points on a safety and Roosevelt kept the ball in their possession for the rest of the game.

North won the toss and chose to receive and Captain Barnes booted the ball to the five-yard line where it was returned to the twenty-yard line. North made two straight first-downs but were forced to punt on the forty-yard line where Hood made a wise return. West opened up with a strong plunging and passing game led by Bill Richardson, moved to the backfield by his ability to handle the ball and his speed, and Hood and Barnes. Two passes from Hood to Barnes got West started and with Richardson and Barnes hitting the line and Hood's running the ends we made steady progress down the field to the thirty-yard line, where Barnes was forced out Qf bounds on the three-yard line. On the next play Barnes plunged over for a touchdown. The try for point after touchdown was blocked. The lineup : West High 1 North High Onthank ....... ..... L . E. .... .........

Fifty-two East-West Game Novem.ber 22 proved to be another disastrous day for our team. Although our boys fought hard and throughout the whole game we were defeated by the score of 27-7. The game started with East High receiving the kick-oi? and marched right ,down the field and were held for downs on West High's thirty- yard line. West was able to make one first down with Hood, Richardson and Barnes carrying the ball but failed on the second and were forced to punt. East again started down the held but a fumble stopped them this time. The lirst quarter ended with neither team scoring. East scored their first touchdown at the close of the second quarter.

Our Second Team Our second squad during the past season has been a great success. Not only in winning half their games but in keeping our First squad in trim all through the season. We did not get a very good start, being defeated by Roosevelt 20 to 0. Foster and Wilson were the outstanding players for West. West came to their own in the second game by defeating Lincoln 23 to 0, the work of Pearlman in the line and Wilson and Ortale in the backfield featured. The third game with North High was closely contested, the first half resulted in a 0 to 0 count. North came back in the final half and after smashing and running the end pushed over a touchdown for the only score of the game. Several times West had the ball within 10 yards of North's goal but lacked the final punch to push it over. A fumble and a bad pass was one of the causes for the North touchdown. The final game of the season was played with East High. The scrubs emerged victorious, 27 to 7. In the opening minutes West tore over for a touchdown and after this tally they scored almost at will. An intercepted pass was the result of the East I-Iigh's lone touchdown. The work of Torston, Pearlman and Friend on the line and the headwork of Wilson featured the game. There were 20 men on the squad. Most of them will be back next year, and should develop into some real material for the varsity next year. Fifty-four Third Football Team ' ' 1 THIRD FOOTBALL TEAM First Row: Clark, Field, Meifer, Jay, Bramhall, Moore. Back Row: Abbett, Irwin, Rutherford, Smith, Huifard, Sutherland. Fifty-five Golf EXT to football, golf is probably the most popular of fall sports. Al- though the season could not be called a success from the standpoint of - matches won, it gave the boys experience which will help them very much in the spring meets. The members of the team- are: Wilfred Raridon, first man and the only veteran on the team. Wilfred played a good game at all times, winning several matches he was doped to lose. Henry Wiseman played second place and made a very fine showing. Fred Hird as third man accounted for himself in a satis- factory manner as did Ivan Anton, who played fourth man. James Wright, a sophomore, playing the final position, did well and will improve as time goes on. West was defeated in all three of the contests. The first, with Roosevelt, the champions easily downed the Maize and Blue boys 24 to 0. The next, with North, was lost, after outplaying them in three of the five matches. Against East High our team did well, collecting six points on a team nearly equal to that of Roosevelt. Soccer The Junior High Soccer team met considerable competition this year and were unable to down their North and West End rivals, these being the only games they lost but they played Washington Irving a scoreless tie. On October 10th the boys played the new rivals from the south-end towng this game ended in a victory for West High to the tune of two to nothing. The star performers for West High were Captain Fisher and Shaw. The following men played in all the ames Wooten Shaw VV. Stone R. gt ! Y , , Stone, Norton, Fisher, captain, and Ashby. Fifty-six Girls' Recreational Sports GREAT deal of enthusiasm has been shown by the girls of West High in recreational sports. T his enthusiasm was initiated by the VV. G. A. A. In this club the girls started to work for monograms by the point system. The work has been carried on, in part by the girls in the normal gym classes. These girls participate in different lines of sport instead of gym work. Any girl interested in any phase of outdoor activity can find it in West High recreational sports. Our sports change as the year progresses, thus giving us at diversity of sports. The baseball enthusiasm had not died down this fall in spite ofthe facts that the World Series was over, for the W. G. A. A. baseball fans organized several champion teams and rivaled Babe Ruth and Walter Johnson on the diamond. A number, of hiking parties were enjoyed by the girls and they gained local color by these trips. . If you met a number of girls in the halls after school with long sticks and rosy cheeks you may be sure they were the girls who participated in hockey. This sport was introduced into West High this year and was enjoyed until Christmas vacation. Riding also flourished, and, from all reports, 'West High has among her pupils some promising horsewomen. Of course we have some water nymphs among our girls. The swimming classes went over big under the direction of Mr. Harris. West High's prospects of having some of her former students in the follies looks promising from the gracefulness and ability of some members of the dancing classes. These classes meet after school and are under the direction of Miss Metcalf. Others of our number have answered the call and lure of the golf links. Mae Estess, Dorothy Hutton, Edith Lutz, Frances Ford, and Margaret Fenlon are among the regular players. This class is coached by Mr. Sprague. They meet twice a week after school in favorable weather. Of course a little rain means nothing if you have golfitis. just so the boys wouldn't feel slighted the W. G. A. A. gave a skating party and all students were invited. Possibly the sport with the most general interest behind it is tennis. The reason is that in tennis the competitive element is present. In tennis, our girls have an opportunity to test their ability with that of girls from other schools. Among those who went out for tennis were: Thelma Eldridge,'Betty Stokely, Elizabeth Brinkman, Leo Smith, Irma Dixon, Bothilda Mahler, Miriam' Mahler, Mae Estess, Margaret Flick, Maxine Piekenbrock, Edith Giles, Caroline Wood- ruff, Gretchen Moorehouse, Sara Winachor. Those who represented us in the inter-school tournament were Thelma Eldredge, Miriam Mahler, Bothilda Mahler and Irma Dixon. - Fifty-seven Qutugrapbs . Fifty-eight il -1 XWXM-Mx MW ' 33 'SF M!

Debate ' Question: Resolved, that the Student Council should pass a rule prohib- iting gum from being chewed more than two periods. Affirmative : Students of the school, honorable judges, and Mr. Chairman. We will endeavor to prove to you that for the sake of gum, we should not chew it for more than 140 minutes. Just think of the poor working girls that would be out of work if we were allowed to chew gum over 140 minutes. Negative: Mr. Chair- man, honorable judges, and friends. We, of the negative will show you that it is useless to pass the bill. If a piece of gum is allowed to remain in a pupil's mouth for two peri- ods, it deserves to stay there. In other words if a teacher does not .catch you chewing gum and you get away with it Cthe gumj you are pretty smart. I thank! you.

I thank you. Adventure of the Poisoned, Teacher George, the internation- ally known dectective, and myself, Dr. Wilson were seated in our rooms on Pleasant street. For my friend, Onthank's sake, I was hoping that some kind of a case. would turn up as I was afraid that he would go back to his old habit of taking a snoose. just as I was starting to voice my opinion, our boy brought in a card of one of the residents of the city. The card bore the name of J. Barnes. We told the boy to show him in when we rung the bell. Well, said my friend, Onthank, Let's see who this Barnes chap is. So saying, he reached up and took down a volume marked Ba-to-C. I don't see anything unusual about this chap, continued Onthank. He played, football 20' years ago and now is engaged as athletic judge of Missouri Valley. Well, ring the bell. I rang the bell and a fine looking man of 40 came in. He showed signs of worry. Mr. Onthankf' he said, you have, no doubt, heard of the mysterious poisoning of Miss Gibson and Mr. Carman, teachers of my old school. Yes, I have, but won't you start from the begin- ning and tell me every- thing? 4 Well, it started by my chap thought that it might help his grades if he did. Anyway, they accepted and last Wednesday they were out to our home for din- ner. They were taken home by our chauffeur and he said he took them to their respective homes and they seemed in good spirits -when he saw them last. Thursday morning they were very sick and only by my taking the blood specialist, Dr. Wright, to them that their lives were spared. Now, Mr. Ont- hank, you have the facts of this case. It looks like a case for you, Dr. Wilson, said Onthank, with his wry smile. Have you any of the foods of the meal left, Mr. Barnes. Yes, and it was all tested for every kind of poison and none was found. If these are all of the facts we shall go to Mr. Carman's room immedi- ately, Doctor. Good day, Mr. Barnesf, You can go in my car and it will be at your dis- posal when you want it, Mr. Onthankf' Thank you, I think we will accept your generous offer. So we went to Mr. Car- man's room and his cloth- ing was searched by Ont- hank. Then he went through his waste basket. When he looked up he had CCon't from paije wunj JV. Barnes .......... R. H. B R.

Tell Miss Hird, the house- keeper, to have a fine meal for us. That night we read the paper land retired in our usual manner. The next morning George called Mister Barnes and asked him if we might come out to dinner that evening. We were, of course, told that we would be welcomed. He also requested that all the members of the family be present. The Barnes' car called for us at 6:15 and we were taken to the splendid home of Mr. Barnes. During the entire dinner which was a splendid meal, noth- ing was said of the reason for our being there. After dinner we went into the library for our cigars and coffee. Mr. Onthank requested Wil- liam to come with us. My young son, you are pretty clever, are you not? asked Onthank. , Er -- what do you mean? stammered Wil- liam. Well, don't feed your teachers gum, or at least don't put a package of poisoned gum in their pockets. William, I think that you and I have a little matter to settle, said Wil- liam's father in a very 'dig- nified voice. Mr. Ont- hank, just send a state- ment the first of the month.

Later, and in fact almost recently, the knowledge of reading', ritin' and rithmeticf' together with the ability to read several of the dead languages, was considered an education of very high order. Today, however, a well rounded education is much broader in scope and practical in application. Courses of instruction are arranged to cover almost every known subject. Students are trained in school to enter business, professional and social life without having to pass through a long period of apprentice- ship after leaving the schools. This book is a sample of the business, literary and aesthetic ability of the students of West High School. We are proud to have been associated with them to the extent of printing this book.
