The faculty and students may be lileened to pioneers, blazing a new trail for others to follow. Therefore, lest plans for the future dim the noteworthy achievements of the past, it seems jitting to recall that the traits of determination, progress, and foresight, inherent in the pioneer, have made possible the humble beginning and brought about the remarkable development of our school. These reflections not only inspire an pride for the success of the past but foretell a future of power and greatness.

Throughout the length and breadth of this great building are found all the advantages that modern science and industry can give to the boy and girl of today, for the advancement of learning. Yet only ninety-three years ago the first school was built in Dixon. Instead of twelve thousand people, there were only thirteen families living here then. The school was crudely constructed and had but one room. However, those people were imbued with the desire to give their children as fine an education as humanly possible, just as are the progressive citizens of today. As a result the little one room school was soon outgrown, the two schools that followed also proved inade- quate in a short time. For a while a church and other rooms about the town were pressed into service, Then in 1862, Prof. lf. C. Smith took charge, he remained in control for twenty- one years and has gone down in history as one of the greatest benefactors of our school system. During his long term the advancement was phenomenal. ln 1867 the lj. C. Smith school was built, at that time it was considered one of the finest in the state. Also a subscription was started on the North side which brought about a separate school for that part of the town. The first class was graduated from Dixon High School in 1864. There were three members in contrast to the one hundred twelve who will receive diplomas this year. The attendance continued to increase so rapidly that the North Central Grade School had to be erected in 1868. In I8Q2 a building known as the XVhite Brick School was built on the South side, to be used as a high school. This latter building burned in IQO6 but was replaced at once by the present South Side High. Crowded conditions on the North Side also necessitated the construction of a high school there, adjoining the grade school building. This was completed in IQOO. lileven years ago the North and South sides joined together into one district, with one large high school as a goal. This year sees the dreams of the originators of this idea realized and also the beginning of a great period of development. and, we are sure, success for all.

KALYFAIAN VAAGE REILLEY Baooics SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In the fall of '26 two planes named Freshman S. and Freshman N. soared high into the unchartered future. At first, Hying was uncertain and this meant encount- ering airpockets and other menances known to Hyers such as we were destined to be. But our commanding officers: Arthur Teeter, Hale Barton, Roberta Keyes, and Etta Finney of Freshman S., and Wilson Reilley, Mary Kennedy, Frances Praetz, and Rexine Hudson, of Freshman N., steered us away from disaster. Both planes enjoyed their parties very much. 'With the guidance of their officers they made successful landings and made ready to start out in the fall of '27. In the fall of '27 we were transferred to new planes called Sophomore S. and Sophomore N. The oH'icers of Sophomore S. were Ruth Keyes, Douglas Curran, Charlotte Brooks and Arthur Teeter. The officers of Sophomore N. were Harriet Utley, VVilson Reilley, Frances Praetz, and VVinston Smith. Our Sophomore year seemed all too short and our parties were enjoyed by all. Then we landed in the spring of '28, In the fall of '28 we took off in our planes Junior S. and Junior N. The oflicers of Junior S. were: Roberta Keyes, Douglas Curran, Viola Vaage, Merna Suter, and Harold Dockery. The ofiicers of Junior N. were: Mary Kennedy, Josephine O'I-Iare, Kenneth McLaren, and VVinston Smith. Junior S. gave a play, A Full House which was successful. The Junior N. gave a play The Youngest which also went over big. The crew of the two planes united and gave a Junior-Senior banquet and thus made a three point landing in the spring of ,2Q. In the fall of '29 we made an unusual take off, we were united and made one class. The ofiicers were Dan Kaufman, Viola Vaage, Wilson Reilley, and Charlotte Brooks. Just before Christmas we soared into new and more beautiful clouds COur New High Schoolj. After the Christmas vacation a group of Seniors began work on the Senior play The NVhiteheaded Boy which was given Feb. 14th and 15th and was an astounding success. In the Spring we plan to give the Junior- Senior banquet which will be an unique affair. As we Seniors look back with tearful smiles upon the experiences of our previous years, we marvel that we didn't Crack up , and then we hope that the life before us may be as free from trials as our life in school, but we have a feeling that it won't be.

It was very green, but with Robert Redfern as President, Charles Curran as Vice-President, Margaret Leland as Secretary and Treasurer, Avis Cromwell as Student Council Representative, and lXfIiss Heinle as class advisor on the South Side, and Myra Alice Warner as President, Harold Murphy as Vice-President, Mary Hamilton as Secretary-Treasurer, Donald Stephen as Student Council Representative and Miss Richardson as class advisor, on the North Side it did not make as many mistakes as might have been expected. The class had its share of festivities. On the North Side, a picnic was held, and, on the South Side, a masquerade party was given in the Fall. The class has been well represented in athletics. In the summer the class broke up, but it was only a short time until they came together as Sophomores. A class meeting was held and other ofliicers were selected for the second lap of the journey. On the South Side, Sara Altekruse was selected President, Donald Hilliker, Vice-President, Kenneth Abbot, Secretary-Treasurer, Donald Worley, Student Representative, and lVIiss Young as class advisor. On the North Side, Donald Stephan was selected President, Allen Taylor, Vice-President, Jessie lVeyant, Secretary-Treasurer, Mary Hamilton, Student Council Representative, and Nlrs. Lazier as class advisor. Several parties were held which were well attended. Some of the athletes began to come to the fore. Favorable predictions were made for the class, which as Juniors they have tried successfully to fulfill. On the third lap of the journey, the class was united in the new school. A class meeting was held. Robert Beech was elected President, Elsie Neff, Vice- Presidentg lXfIyra Alice VVarner, Secretary-Treasurer, and Sara Altekruse, Student Council Representative. lVe are now looking forward to the fourth lap of our journey.

As the north and south side were separate, two groups of ofhcers were elected. For the south side, John Dixon was elected President, Elizabeth James, Vice-President, Woody Thompson, Secretary and Treasurer, Enid Segner, Student Council Representative, and lXfIiss Heinle, Class Advisor. For the north side, Dale hflurphy was chosen President, Stanley Biggart, Vice-President, Nlargaret Rogers, Secretary and Treasurer, Helen Deveny, Student Council Representative, and lVIiss Richardson, Class Advisor. The social activities of the north side were: a weiner roast at Lowell Park, a Halloweien hffasquerade Party, and on Feb- ruary 23, a party for the entire school held at Kindergarten Hall. The south side gave two parties, one a hlasquerade, and one, with the Sophomores in iXf'Iay. Altogether, our Freshman year was quite successful, and we recall many pleasant memories of it. The Freshies came back in September as Sophomores. The school was united, and north and south side Sophomores at- tended the North Dixon High School. The officers elected were: Enid Segner, President, Helen Finley, Vice-President, hflargaret Rogers, Secretary and Treasurer and Henry Utley, Student Council Representative. On November, twenty-eighth, our first social event of the year was given at the South Side Gym. The class has been well represented in athletics and hopes to have many of its members in the hall of fame. lVe, as a class, and as individuals, are eagerly looking forward to our two remaining years in High School, as these first two have been so very enjoyable. i . 1'f1z4f 39 l grll 1 f .4-,bale L if f ' If n al l f ...b f ff72ffm,is,gh4,,fsa?n,,!f-A ' -- -l '-' iw 4 ff fm-IYAYTL H' T T3Q...-5- A gl'- 4 .. v.

Much confusion was caused by having the students from both sides of the river attending the one school. This was also a pleasure because we were all together instead of a divided school as in past years. live held a class meeting and elected the following as our leaders: FRANCIS ICENNEDY ...... Preridevzt JOHN CRABTREE . . Vim-Prffidevzt PEARL NEFF . . Sfcrelary- Treaxurer PAULINE CONRAD ..... Student Cozmci! On November I, 1929 we held a 'masquerade Hal1owe'en Party at the South Side School. Through the kind cooperation of the Freshman class advisors: lXfliss Conley, Nliss Kinsella, lVIiss Heinle, hfliss Richardson, and Nfr. Austin, lXffr. Lindell, hir. Weiss, and the students, the party proved a very great success. Dancing was the chief feature of the evening. Prizes were awarded to Francis Kennedy and Louise Bally for prettiest costumes and to Elton XVilliams and Jean Emmert for the most unique costumes. The Freshman boys played a conspicuous part in the Athletics of this season. Great attendance of Freshmen at the games showed their appreciation of sports- manship. YVC entered the new High School following the Thanksgiving vacation, and were again led through corridors, lonely but beautiful. We are now looking forward to happiness and success for our coming years of high school life.

Advixorf The Home Economics Club is a member of the Illinois State Organization, and one of the most active organizations in the school. It was founded by the Home Economics students in IQ23, and since then has made rapid progress. The purpose of the club is to arouse interest in Home Management. Due to the fact that the classes were separated by the North and South Side Schools, the Home Economics Club was not organized until January Io, 1930. The Dixon Home Ecker's spent a pleasant hour WVednesday afternoon, January 15, at the expense of the new members who were being initiated into the club. The usual Christmas Party was omitted this year because of the late organiz- ation of the department, but everyone is looking forward to the picnic to be held at the close of school, an occasion which is enjoyed by all.

The club has accomplished a great deal in the short time they have been organ- ized. They have published a school paper g'The Purple and VVhite Banner which has met with great success. YVith funds raised from the paper and from selling candy and magazines they will sponsor several teams in typing and short- hand contests.

At first only a few of the old members reported at practise but from time to time new instruments and their owners found their way to the Assembly Room at 8:00 o'clock on Tuesday and Thursday mornings until there were almost twenty-five members. The Orchestra received some new, much-needed music stands in October. ln December it moved with the rest of the school into its new quarters, namely the Nlusic Room. The Orchestra played the school songs at both the evening pep meetings and at tl1e dedication of the New High School. On November 22, in honor of Saint Cecelia's Day, the Orchestra played several selections for General Assembly. Again on February 28 it played for General Assembly. lVe cannot say whether it is the new Nlusic Room which provides inspiration, or the fact that the Orchestra practises regularly twice a week instead of once as it formerly did, that has caused the great improvement in this Musical organiz- ationg but we know that if it continues to improve as it has, the Dixon High School can justly feel proud of its orchestra.

The first meeting was held at the home of lvlerna Suter on the evening of November twelfth. Each member answered roll call with a French proverb. A report was given by Joyce Warner on French manners, and it was followed by one on French anniversaries by lX larian Schmidt. French games were played and attractive refreshments were served. The aim of this club is to promote the use of the French language, to develop interest in, and to obtain a new view of France and her people.

After tryouts a rather select group of fifty juniors and seniors were left to make up the club. The purpose of the organization is to develop among its members poise and self control when appearing in public. The club elected the following officers for the year 1929-30: ROBERT LESAGE . . Prffident AIERNA SUTER . . Sfcretary DAN KAUFMAN . . . Treayurer B. FRAZER . . . . Faculty Advifor At the meetings in the new public speaking room the following plays were given, Wl1ere But In American, Playing Wvith Fire , The Forfeitv, and Enter the Heron. The meetings were open to the public and many outsiders took advantage of the fact. Where But In American was also presented before the Parent Teachers Association at their Nfarch meeting. 1'f1m' 55 G5 .'

Membership in the Club is a real honor this year, as individual eligibility tests for entrance in tone quality, vocal range, and reading, were given at the beginning of the year. Consequently, only the best talent was admitted. The Glee Club meets every Monday and Wednesday morning before school for practice. Strict attendance is maintained and good cooperation is shown between the boys and their director. These facts help to account for the progress and outstanding success of the club this year. The Boys' Glee Club sang at several pep meetings and general assemblies in the old school, and also at the Dedication of the New School, and for the first general assembly in the new building. The Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs cooperated in giving an operetta The Bells of Capistrano, in Nlarch. The able accompanist for the Boys, Glee Club was Jane Bradford. lX4uch good talent will leave when the Seniors are graduated but many promising voices are developing among the lower classmen to take their places. Too much praise can not be given to the able and efficient leader- ship of the director, Miss Nlarion Lawson.

The first appearance being at the dedicatorial services of our new high school on December the thirteenth. Then the Junior representatives made a very splendid showing at one of the Parent Teacher's Meetings. The combined Glee Clubs gave an operetta entitled, The Bells of Capistranof, on March twenty-first and twenty-second, which gave an excellent representation of both the directorls and the student's work. if . , ,gg l,,...,.,x - - - lu ull u 7 or f. ,, - sim. 1 i ' 'T' ..Y-1 il- A i'l JF f i . - f- 7 -' -'Tf-...

This organization consists of farm boys, studying vocational agriculture in high school. There is a local chapter, a state organization and a national organization with oliicers and an adviser for each. The officers for the local chapter are: ROBERT SHEAFFER . . Preridenz LLOYD BREISCH . . . Reporter ARTHUR SCH1-CK . . Vzcr-Preridrnt EDWARD LAWTON Program Chairman MERRIT BELLOWS Secrftary-Trrasurer J. N. WE1ss . . . Adviser The purpose of this organization is to promote new interest in vocational agriculture and farm life. At the beginning of each year the activities are planned for that year. Some of the plans of this local chapter are: To start a 4H baby-beef clubg to sponser a Fall Festival each yearg to hold an annual Father and Son's Banquetg to hold regular monthly meetingsg to make a prosperous survey of each student's home farmg to test seed corn forfarmer's atareasonable cost. In this organization each member has a chance to Work up and to receive honorary mention in the state and also in the national organization. Three degree's are available to members of this club: namely, the Green Hand degree, Future Farmer degree, and the American Farmer degree. The American Farmer degree is the hardest to obtain. Two students from each state are chosen each year. D. H. S. has been fortunate to have one member obtain this degree. This was Elmer VVilliams, who is now a student at the University of Illinois. The national organization is sponsoring a national oratorical contest which will be held at Kansas City, Missouri each year. A champion from each state will be selected to enter into this contest.

At the beginning of the year Alf. Selander began a class in public speaking with the aim of teaching the fundamentals of public speaking, and delivery. This class continued throughout the fall term, then early in the winter debating, the real Objective of the work, was begun. A meeting was held by all the schools of our new conference. At this time the subject of debate was chosen. It was agreed to debate upon Resolved that the expansion ofthe Chain system is detrimental to the best interests of the Amer- ican peoplef' A schedule was also drafted at this time, it is as follows: lXfIar. I8+DlXO11 vs. Rochelle lvlar. 24-DlXOI1 vs. DeKalb XVINSTON SMITII lXfIar. 27-Dixon vs. Belvidere Shortly after Christmas vacation intensive work was begun by a large squad, picked from the public speaking class. From this squad the following teams were chosen: Negative i XKVILSON WALKER NIARY HAMILTON CHARLES CARROLL lX'lARION SULLIVAN Ajirmativf ROBERT REDFERN lXfIYRA ALICE WYARNER IQEXINE HUDSON ELEANOR BARTIIOLMEW ROBERT LESAGE A preliminary debate was held between the two Dixon teams before the Toast- masters Club on Feb. 20. At this time the Negative proved superior to the affirm- ative, winning 28 to 14. Another preliminary debate was also held with Polo. The negative team going to Polo, and the affirmative debating Polols negative team at Dixon. Both of our teams won their debates. The debate with Rochelle resulted in a defeat for both Dixon teams but iII both cases the debates were very close and served to urge them on to better success in the future.

The name of our club which means go with men suggests the social as well as the cultural aims of the club which was reorganized by students of the second and third Latin classes to stimulate interest in Latin, to present the enjoyable side as well as the daily grind, and to introduce the material covered in the class room. This may pertain to Roman History or to the public and private life of the Roman people. lt may also show our depend- ence upon the past and things Roman in customs, holidays, and ceremonies that have come down to us and especially in the language. The following papers already given will be illustrative: The Roman Forum by Thelma Salisbury, Roman Men of Business by VVinston Smith, Latin Words and their VVays by Nina Smeily, and Roman Government by Jean Murray. Stereoptican views on the city and art of Rome were furnished through the courtesy of lVIr. Austin of the Sterling High School. For actual work in the Latin language opportunities are offered as shown by the transcription of the pledge to the Hag by lXfIary Hamilton. This is given at the beginning of the meetings. In a lighter vein were riddles in English with Latin answers by David Craig. Games also are arranged for each meeting by groups of students, and other and ancient and modern songs are sung. Projects for the future include pageants and short plays, everything that will help to prove that beyond the ablative absolute lies a living rather than a dead Latin! The oHicers for the club are: MYRA ALICE WARNER . ' Prerident RANDALL WULLBRANDT . . Sacrezary Miss CONLEY, MRS. LAZIER . . Advzxerr THE ART CLASS This year, with the two schools combined, the Art Class has been bigger and more successful than it has been in previous years. Because of the larger class, it was necessary that they meet two nights after school, every other week. The new studio has inspired the work to a great extent. The show cases already are quite well filled. By another year the department hopes to have the show boards in the third corridors filled with interesting work. The Work has been carried on this year under the valuable instructions of Miss Guernsey. One of the advantages of the class is that any student has the privilege to carry on any kind of work that they are especially interested in. This year, during the first semester most of the students produced some very interesting compositions in silk in the process of tie and dye. The second semester was spent in working with leather. As a result of this many attractive purses and leather cases were made. lVlany of the students designed patterns for their leather work. Miss Guernsey has presented some very helpful suggestions in designing. The school bought a magazine for the Art Class which helps very much in working with colors and designs. The Art Class has been growing in number and talent for the last few years and there are favorable signs for much to be expected in the future. Page 60 .,e...a. kadff a r f' 1.

Drought and mysterious disappear- ances of cattle have left Ramon, its present owner, with but one herd to pay off the mortgages held by Jake Kraft. Noneeta, an Indian girl, is a maid in the Ortego household, and is loved by Lone Eagle, a young chief. Medicine man, Pose calls upon his gods to restore the tribefs lost lands, and tells of a curse on the ranch and Capistrano mission because of wrongs done to the Indians-a curse lifted only when the bells of the mission shall ring again. Kraft urges Pose to rustle the last of the Ortego cattle. Noneeta overhears, and begs Lone Eagle to save the ranch. jealous of Ramon, he first refuses but finally promises to bring back the herd on the night of the full moon. Noneeta realizes too late that she has sentenced him to death by making him a traitor to his tribe. Prof. Anderson, his sister Laura, and students arrive at the ranch. Three of the boys fall in love with the Ortego sisters-Marion, a college friend of the latter, arrives with her father, James Alden, who has been sent to restore the mission. VVord comes that the great herd has been stolen. Noneeta tells Marion of Lone Eagle's promise and sacrifice, and explains that if the mission bells were to ring on the night of the full moon, the Indians would believe the curse lifted, the cattle would be restored, and Lone Eagle saved. Marion discovers an old painting, which discloses a secret map of a mine of great richness. The mortgage threatens to make this discovery useless, and the sullen Indians prevent access to the mission. Noneeta eludes them as the ranchers despair, and causes the old bells to break their long silence as the full moon rises. Lone Eagle drives in the herd, and the Indians are reconciled with Ramon.

The big gymnasium was well filled for the dedication program. Francis G. Blair, of Springfield, Illinois, State Superintendent of the Department of Public Instruction was the guest speaker. President T. W. Clayton of the board of education presided during the evening. Preceding the program, the high school orchestra very ably entertained with a concert of several fine selections. President Clayton called the gathering to their feet while two verses of America were sung, following which Rev. Franklin Young pronounced the invocation. The Girls' and Boys, Glee Clubs directed by hfliss Lawson sang selections. President Clayton outlined the campaign by which the board of education and the tax payers of the school district made possible the beautiful new building. He recalled the campaign as launched, the contest in the selection of a site, and finally the bond issue. After this short talk Deming Hintz sang a very appropriate song. Next Prof. I. B. Potter gave a very interesting talk in which he outlined the consolidation of the north and south side district ten years ago and in the eleventh year after the consolidation, he said, the high school students occupied a new build- ing. Then Superintendent Potter introduced Principal A. H. Lancaster who in turn presented the members of the faculty. After this Prof. Potter introduced the guest speaker of the evening. Mr. Blair brought forth many valuable points in his dedicatory address. He said that even though all communities are confronted by the complaints of tax- payers in erecting such a costly building, it is worth every penny of it. Money invested in the education of children is one of the best investments. Bread that returns after many days is the bread that is cast upon the educational waters of any community. VVith the opening of a great building such as this for educational purposes, the boys and girls, the students of this community, the members of the faculty and the tax-payers have a great pride. For the students these great walls fairly speak to them. They are not standing still or marking time, but are providing the great cross-section of life. Everyone is welcome, and all boys and girls can truthfully say that this is his or her school buildingfl The speaker dwelt at some length on comparing modern education advantages with those of his own boy- hood days spent in southern Illinois. Rev. YV. VV. Nlarsliall, then pronounced the benediction which concluded the dedication program. Page 71 rv' P 4474 ,V I, ,,..a,,4...,,,,. - , . I' f fl 1, fl In W fm.

The room was decorated with purple and white streamers and large colored balloons. The tables were very attractively decorated with purple and white, vases of flowers, and lighted candles. A small Favor at each place helped to make the banquet even more successful. After a very tempting and bountiful dinner, the program began, carrying out the idea of a ship making its voyage, depicting the Senior Class traveling through High School and on through the journey of life.

He also reviewed some of the more exciting football games of his career in college football. He further told about fraternity life and many existing conditions in the universities. Anyone contemp- lating further education could obtain much valuable information regarding this sort of life. JUNIOR-SENIOR PARTY On October 18th in the old South Side Gym, the Junior-Senior Party took its place as one bf the finest parties ever given in the Dixon High School. Five pieces of the Alaskans furnished music for dancing. A large crowd took advantage of this and very few were seen sitting out. During the evening several stunts were given. A chorus of twelve girls did a novelty called The Breakawayu, that was really clever. Then later on in the evening five couples staged a Block Nlarathon Danceu. This also was a big success. The Home groups and the committee in charge must have done a great deal of work and thinking to be able to put over such a party. Undoubtedly it was one of the most successful parties ever given in D. H. S.

Dear Diary: Oh! what a marvelous time I've had this evening! Oh, how my feet ache from dancing! You see, my dear Diary, I was at the Sophomore Party, a very lovely affair indeed. The gym was certainly decorated cleverly with red, white and blue, all to suit Armistice Day. I must relate the very entertaining program. At 8 o'cl0ck, slips of paper were passed, bearing the names of well known cities and states-thus by doing this we matched partners for the grand march, a very stately affair. After this Elmie Tate played some piano solos. Next, a short play was presented by a group of classmates. Then about 9:30 dancing began. An did we dance-Oh Boy! Bob Wils0n's Orchestra surely furnished some snappy music. And Oh, Diary, the punch-I couldn't forget that, it was delicious and indeed very popular punch- as usual. . VVell, I will say goodnight now and hope I will be with you again tomorrow night. lNIust go to bed and dream about my happy time, and I hardly believe I will be the only dreamer tonight because I know everyone had a grand and glorious timen-By-By. NI. K. FRESHMAN PARTY The Freshman Masquerade Party was held in the South Side Gymnasium on january 13, 1930. The happy affair started at about 8:00 and lasted until 11:00. The gym looked very attractive in many bright colored streamers. When a large group was assembled the grand march began. At this time the best costumes were judged and the honors were given to Francis Kennedy, for the best costume, and to Jean Emmert, for the funniest costume. lVIuch fun was enjoyed by observing the great varieties of ideas worked out in the costumes. After this the games started and were seemingly much enjoyed by all participators and audience. YVhen the young people became tired of games, cider and doughnuts were served, which again revived their high spirits. Then the orchestra began to play a group of dance selections and the merry Freshies were soon engaged in dancing. VVhen 11:00 0'clock came the party dispersed, and many tired but happy Freshmen returned to their homes, to carry with them the memory of a most enjoyable first High School Party.

It is composed of a group of interested parents and teachers who are earnestly endeavoring to bring about improvements in all phases of High School life, and to make it possible for all boys and girls to take advantage of our beautiful New High School in the most beneficial ways. This year the association is doing very progressive and excellent work, under the able direction and leadership of its officers, with the cooperation of the many other parents and teachers. The following executive committee was elected in April for the year of 1929-30: MRS. WHITE . . . Prerideut MRS. WARREN lVlURRAY . Vice-Preridenz MRS. LESTER WILHELM . Recording Secretary Miss KATHRYN WRIGHT . . Correrponding Sfcrezary MRS. L. PITCHER . Treaxurer The association has been holding many very interesting meetings, and all of them have been well attended. The September meeting was opened with a tea for the Freshman mothers, which helped to bring about a spirit of friendliness and unity. As the October meeting was held during the teachers Institute week, a speaker was obtained for that meeting, and he suggested many new ideas, and gave a very interesting and educational talk. The November meeting was given over to the Sophomore parents, and was also very well attended. The next meeting, which was held in January was officially for the Junior parents. In February, the association sponsored the annual visiting day, which was considered very successful. In March, the Senior parents were entertained, and at this meeting it was voted that the parents should present the School with two new sets of encyclopedias, which are among the most valued and beneficial possessions of the school. The last meeting was held in April, and this was given over to the enter- tainment of the fathers, and was Well attended by them. The unusual success of the Parent-Teachers Association is the result of the untiring efforts of the ofiicers, teachers and other parents.

Snappy Pep meetings were given throughout the Football and Basket- ball season. The Boys, Glee Club, the Girls' Glee Club and the Orchestra appeared at a number of these occasions and gave very successful performances. A Safety First Program, by a Junior Advisory Group, an Armistice Day Ob- servance under the direction of the American Legion, and an interesting lecture by Professor Bingham were also features of the General Assemblies in the Autumn quarter. In the new High School the General Assemblies were held in the Gym- nasium. In addition to the Pep meetings The Womens, Relief Corps of Dixon joined with us in commemoration of Lincoln,s birthday. The casts of The White- headed Boy and The Bells of Capistrano gave sketches of their productions the day before they were given. Mr. George Elias of Mesopotamia gave an interesting lecture, and solos were presented by Dean Hey and Arthur Teeter. At many of these assemblies we were presented with gifts for our new High School. Among these are an oil painting of the Cumberland Mountains given by the Dixon Womens, Club, a study of St. John by Teal Messerg a bronze tablet of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address by the W. R. C., a picture of Frances T. Willard by the W. C. T. U., and a beautiful portrait of Abraham Lincoln by the Daughters of the Union. On behalf of the Dixon School we wish to thank everyone for gifts presented to the School, they will be treasured by the students for many years to come. BOYS' HI-Y-GIRLS' HI-TRI The Boys' Hi-Y was late in starting this year on account of the excitement of the entrance into the New High School, also because of the lack of a proper place to hold the meeting. In the second semester they again took up the scattered threads and continued the exclusive club. The maximum number of boys allowed in the club is 50. These are taken from the Junior and Senior classes. They decided to hold the meetings every two weeks in the Lutheran Church and all of these proved to be very successful. - The girls were also late in getting started this year owing to the doubt of ten old members of the Hi-Y whether they wished to disorganize as a Hi-Y club and begin as a new organization, called the Hi-Tri. This was unanimously favored, and thus the new club was formed. It is a State organization for all High School girls wishing to join. The League has a three-fold aim, this is: the welfare of the school, the girls, and the community, the other symbolic of a high try in character building. The meetings were held every two weeks in the High School Cafeteria, several parties and dances were also given. Eventually this club is to take in the Freshmen, Sophomore and Junior classes as well as the Senior girls, although the lower classes will not participate in the outside social functions. The pins bear the Dixon High School emblem below which is a ladder with five rungs, symbolizing the upward climb of the girls, are not to be given until the Senior year. This will give the other lower class members something to look forward to in the social life of High School. The graduating class of I93O hold the honor of being charter members. The club has, so far, proved very successful, and as it is developed, will prove even more so.

XVhat would we do if those precious things, our only relics of days gone by, would desert us forever more? VVe would be living in a cheerless present, with no hope for tomorrow, no mistakes to be avoided, nor no comfort in being with old, loved friends. Come with me, my friend, and we will go into my memory room. It's a lovely place, with the fragrance of flowers and the songs of birds filling the air. Chests stand against the wall. Let me tell you what they contain. This Colfer, of gleaming gold, holds the memories of my childhood days. Let us open it. Immediately we are back in a beautiful glen. Shouts of joyous children mingle with the songs of birds and the gurgle of running waters. There is someone there, too, whose baby days are far behind yet who romps and plays with us, as gleeful as we. She gathers flowers and kisses bumped noses, tells us a story and rocks us to sleep. Yes, she is lX'Iother. Now let us close this chest and open this one with the silver bands. We are at a bed-side. There is someone on the bed, and someone else bending over that person. Low sobbing is heard. A Friend holds my hand and comforts me in low tones, though the person on the bed means more to her, if possible, than to me. YVho can say how much, not then, but later, when hflother Was Well-who can say how much I appreciated this Friend? Let us turn to this chest of varied hues, which holds my memories of seasons gone by. We lift the lid and are transported to an orchard in the full beauty of spring. The grass is green, and violets nestle in it. hIr. and h'Irs. Robin are trying to decide which bough of the old apple tree will be best to build on. The field beyond the orchard is being plowed, and the smell of rich earth, vibrant with life, mingled with the perfume of apple and plum blossoms, comes to us as we survey the landscape. The brook which cuts across one corner of the orchard is gurgling and laughing and doing all the hundred and one things that a brook knows how to do in spring. A lark sings high in air and I can feel the Gypsy urge to travel in my veins. I want to cross those distant hills, mistily green from here, and see if there is a better place than home. I will be glad enough to come back when the Wanderlust deserts me. In this box of ebon-wood are my sorrowful memories. Some are inconsequential, others are of great importance to me. Here is a memory of my first haircut-when Page 77 P : ,. L , f I ll In f 'rf fr ,, ' fm.

Here is where I learned, much to my sorrow and disgrace, that I must not pick my neigh- boris tulips. And this is where I knelt at a tiny bed and held a tiny, hot hand in mine, as I prayed for my baby brother's life to be saved from the demon Pneu- monia. I felt that God had heard my prayer when at last the doctor, straightening up, said He will live. Oh, my dear, if letting you go back through the magic doors of Nlemory, back to a time now vague and dim, as in a dream-if, I say, this has given you a new side of me, a glimpse of something holy and beautiful, which time cannot erase nor cover over, remember that we all have memories, and if it were not for Niem- ory's yesterday, there would be no hope, no dreams, no pitfalls one could see in time to avoid, nor no Perfect Tomorrow. One thing more, before you go, my friend. If you want your storehouse of memories to be beautiful and the memories therein things you want to review often, smile! The sorrows of life can not be helped, but for every sorrow comes recom- pense. Smile-hold up your head and smile! AUDREY LEETCH. ON BACON Today when we're reading of Bacon, And our wits seem to wander away, And our eyes gaze over the snowbanks VVe wish we were out at play. The day seems long and dreary, With Bacon at our side And our minds seem all aweary When I'd rather a brook be beside. Iid like to read Ben Jonson With his sprightly wit and glee But Bacon is dry and lonesome And not for you or me. If Bacon could see what I'm writing, He'd swear the world's gone bad, And I'll bet he doesn,t know what he said, In his essay on Carlsbad. Louis PITCHER, JR.

Or I visit strange and faraway lands, where the hot sands of the Sahara, broken only by an occasional caravan trail, lie gleaming in the tropic sun, or where icebergs rear their forbidding hulks. Today I shall visit the East. Out of its hangar and up into the leaden skies I go, for I search for sunlight and the chime of temple bells. Far below gleams the blue Pacific, with the Hawaiian Islands only a group of dots in the azure water. I shall visit them soon. Now we are over China, my monoplane and I. VVe will not stop here because I do not wish the din and clash of warfare, but the peace and quietness of tran- quility. Over Indo-China we sail, and here we will land. Down swoops Imagination and I, of course, swoop down too. Leaving my monoplane in the care of a native who knows some English, I shall wander about. Here is a temple, resplendent with gold and jewels. lVIany tiny statues of Buddha occupy many tiny niches, and in the center of the temple is a huge statue of the well-known Chinese God. Offerings of betel-nut and sandalwood, wood of alves and spices, incense and flowers fill the hollow trough in front of the figure. The lisp of narrow, bare feet of maidens, the shuffle of aged feet, the clap, clap of sandals, mingle with the chimes of temple bells and strange weird music, made by an unseen musician on a native instrument. I have had enough of this, however beautiful it may be, and I retrieve my monoplane. Up intorthe air once more and northwest we go. In a few minutes we are passing over Europe, and now my course is straight north. In the Land of the Midniglit Sun we land, this time by a narrow ford. It is night, and high in the north leap the Aurora Borealis, or Northern Lights. To the South rides the lVIidnight Sun, awe-inspiring and magnificent. Into the air once more, and south. This time we descend in sunny Spain. Here in lVIadrid they are having a festival and a bull fight. Spirits are high, and the jest loud and merry. Provocative black eyes glance and red heels flash. lN'Iatadors bow to my lady of old Madrid, as she rides by in her chair. The bull is slain by the hero of the day, and he is crowned with roses. Surely, here is the gaiety and sunshine I have been seeking. For a time all is well. Then I become conscious of something lacking. Im- patiently I fling myself into my plane, and head west across the Atlantic. Once more I am home, to find rain clouds dispelled by the sunshine of happiness and home. I have been gone fifteen minutes by the clock! An imagination isn't a bad thing to have, after all. AUDREY LEETCH.

Wfhy did that incomprehensible thing, blind fate, Snatch from life you, one who t'ward mankind knew no hate? VVhy was it that in her blind groping Fate allowed to Hee Those who were not as God-like as thee? Why should you, one free from earthly vice, Be chosen for Life's altar, a sacrifice? But oh, on second thought, dear friend, I fear that on me you your wrath would spend, For why should I common clay, Bemoan that Heaven should at your feet treasures lay? I should in truth be glad That you no longer in mortal cares are clad. For although thru your passing I have lost from sight a friend, On whom in trouble I could depend, I now can find it in my heart to say that I no longer selfish be, Nor think you are forever lost to me. For there is between Life and Death but a slender link, And some day soon dear friend, I think That slender thread or link may severed be, And, thru Death, bring me closer yet to thee. WVM.

Our new school is going to better the conditions for educating the student, very much. There will be a larger enrollment, from both town and country, because of the attraction of the new building. A larger enrollment means a bigger and better school. A larger school will mean more, and better instructors, who will be better equipped to teach the students. The new building will enable the North and South sides to be united. This will be an all-round improvement. It will cause unity all over the city. If the young people are congenial, their parents will, very likely, be the same. The unity in the school will better the conditions there. New friendships will be made, and with the students all together, there will be better material for club work. The parties and other social events will be more successful. The environment will be happier in a new, modern building, with good lighting, heating and ventilation. Studying conditions will be greatly improved, and the atmosphere will be so different and new, it will be a joy to go to school. The young people will be happier and more satisfied, while going to school. They will be contented, and being thus, in their hometown, they will wish to remain there. Having seen such improvements take place, they will be ambitious to sec more of them. Happy, contented, ambitious, and therefore valuable, citizens, who will be the making of a greater Dixon. NIERNA SUTER, '3o. HOW LOCAL IMPROVEMENTS AID A COMMUNITY Because of the rapid strides towns and cities are taking towards advancement, it is important that every community should endeavor to improve its local condi- tions. All improvements are important, but the setting aside of land for public parks, the building of schools and bridges, and the organization of play grounds for the children, are especially so. Parks give enjoyment to many people, no matter where they are situated. They are not as important in small places as in large cities where the poorer people, living in tenements surrounded by unpleasant conditions, have only this op- portunity to see grass, trees and flowers. Bridges, when newly built, are often in a different place than the old. This fact tends to enlarge the city and often to alter the location of the business districts. Also, new bridges are usually wider than the old, therefore accommodating more cars. Play grounds and schools are a great benefit to a community ultimately as well as immediately. They protect and educate the children who are to be the officials and citizens of the city in the future. At the present time the schools and play grounds might be of importance to the community by bringing families and factories to it. A good factory owner, when deciding on a location for his building, would want it to be situated in a city where the children of the workers would be protected and educated, as this would make the workers more satisfied and 7 contented.

Coaeher Linde!! and Sharpe, began to form two powerful team: which jnftified the hope: of Dixon fan: in that they won both the heavy- weight and lightweight championfhipf in our newly formed ron- ference. Not too much credit can be given to the roachef for the .ruceeff of our 1929 .rea.von. DIXON 0 vs. AMBOY 0 CNON CON., The first game of the season was played on our home field with Amboy furnishing the opposition. Although we did not redeem ourselves for the decided white wash- ing we were given last year by their powerful onslaught, we at least convinced them that the old Purple and YVhite were not going to suffer defeat at their hands again. The game was staged in a slow drizzling rain and Dixon seemed to be getting the worst endiof the deal. But the old Dixon fighting spirit came to the surface, and we held the Amboy lads scoreless. The second period of the game was much the same as the first, neither team having made a touchdown, the score remained O-O. The fellows came off the field on the heavy end of a moral victory. Dixon 21 vs. ROCK FALLS 0 CNON CoN.D The first whistle was as a warning signal to the Green and Black, but they did not heed and went down to crushing defeat. Dixon kicked to Rock Falls and on the first play it looked as though the old Purple and VVhite were going to be pushed back. But the line settled down and forced the Rock Falls boys to give up the ball on downs. From then on it was a different story. Dixon forcing their opponents to retreat. The first half was slightly to Dixons favor although the score was still O-0, Dixon came close to touchdowns on two occasions, but failed. The second half was more of a track meet than a football game. Dixon made three touchdowns and three points after touchdowns. The team was scrapping in great style and was steadily marching for a fourth touchdown when the final whistle ended the best game that Dixon has played in two seasons. DIXON 7 vs. DEKALB 0 Dixon went to DeKalb expecting to find some stiff opposition, and found DeKalb to be true to expectations. Dixon was outweighed 20 pounds to the man, and for awhile it looked as if DeKalb's Weight would do the trick. Q In the first half, the wind weighed heavy upon Dixons punting. DeKalb came close to scoring in the latter part of the first half, but they were caught holding and a fifteen yard penalty gave our boys a new lease on the game. The second half was a much different tale, DeKalb was showing some fatigue. The D. H. S. machine was holding it's own and gradually wearing the large DeKalb boys down. The duel moved into the opponents territory, finally a little trick play did the business, Dixon went across the goal line for a touchdown. The team carried the oval right over for extra point as well. Dixon 7. DeKalb O. Dixon was on the brink of another score when the whistle blew. Page S3 vf 73 N..

However, after the game, it was found by the Illinois State Athletic Association that Rochelle had played with an ineligible man on their team. Therefore, they had to forfeit the game. The man who was declared ineligible was one of their star players and there is some doubt that they could have beaten us without him. We do know this at any rate--that Rochelle gave us the game and because of it Dixon won the undisputed Championship of the Conference. DIXON 0 vs. STERLING 0 Dixon went to Sterling with the determination to avenge the last Turkey Day defeat. Dixon kicked off to Sterling and then promptly took t'he ball away from them on downs. Dixon started a march goalward, that looked like a touchdown but a fumble on the eight yard line gave Sterling a break and they punted to Dixon's 40 yard line. Dixon then started another drive toward a touchdown and got to the one yard line and Sterling held Dixon for downs. Again Sterling punted out of the danger zone and Dixon started all over again. This sort of game con- tinued throughout all four periods of play,with Dixon doingthe attackingand the blue and gold doing the retreating. D1xoN 0 vs. SAVANNA 7 CNON CoN.j The team journeyed up to Savanna for the purpose of trying to wrest a victory from them. But Dixons first victory over that school is still to be realized. Dixon kicked off to Savanna and at first it looked as though it would be a pretty even battle. But some streak of fate crept into the game and Savanna promptly marched across Dixon's goal line for a touchdown, and then to make matters worse they recrossed the goal line for the extra point. The home team, now realizing the seriousness of their position, chose to receive. From then on it was a different story, the battle became a more even struggle. Savanna didn't score again throughout the remainder of the game. D1XoN 13 vs. BELVIDERE 6 Belvidere came to Dixon for the last conference game of the season. They had the cockey idea that they were going to take a victory home with them. But after the din of battle died away and the dust settled upon the scene of conflict, the score stood Dixon I3 and Belvidere 6. Dixon kicked to Belvidere, who was forced to punt. Our fellows, who were on their toes all during the game, broke through and blocked the punt which rolled back of the goal line where it was downed by Dixon for the first touchdown. The after point was added. The next and concluding touchdown for the home boys came early in the second quarter. The after point failed and the score stood I3 to o at the end of the first half. The second half Dixon played a cautious game. A lucky pass by the visitors netted them about 30 yards and brought them within scoring distance, after which they put over their only touchdown. Dixon 13, Belvidere 6.

It was a rather cold day and the field was covered with snow, lines were marked off by paths in the snow every ten yards. The game itself was a run and chase contest most of the time, Dixon doing the running and Oregon doing the chasing. When the referee signified that the tilt was at an end, Oregon had chased Dixon down the field and across their own goal line for six touchdowns, and three after points. The score at the end of the race totaled 39 points, all of which D.H.S. had stacked up against Oregon's nothing. THANKSGIVING D1XoN 0 vs. STERLING 0 The Turkey Day game was a rather sad blow to the fellows who were out on that wintry field fighting for old D. H. S. Especially for the seniors, the Thanks- giving game means more than all the rest of the season. To start with, Dixon had to kick off to Sterling and from then on it'sure looked bad. Sterling seemed able to push Dixon back at will. But by some pretty strenuous effort, the Dixon fellows were able to hold off their attack until the final whistle sounded. Dixon just didn,t seem able to get organized. Once in the second quarter, the team seemed to have gotten their heads together. They worked like clock work for about three minutes, then it was all over. The final o-o score will long be remembered by those boys wearing the Dixon High Colors. ARTHUR C. BOWERS Mr. Bowers possesses all those traits that go to make one a fine coach and an excellent teacher. Everyone who knows him, as a teacher or as a coach, knows that a better friend is hard to find. ' Mr. Bowers was one of the most important cogs in the old Rock River Conference, and is now acting as Athletic Director for Dixon High in the newly organized Conference. Coach Bowers, as most of the boys know him, can safely be called the man without an enemy, for who could hold enmity against such as he? l Page, S5 Y: V I -.f-7,g-Lqef. - - MM ii ll If III A W ' y, 541 n biE-g - - R .. ff .aff-If TT-,i-....-2' . -K ?'lZ:l...- ' TEETER 1...- .1 ,,,.. -- -fray Q 1 , Jggdng, .uwmll I-1lllIlU'ullll'f U IFF' WWII N '- ,Q,,,,,,,,,,,m,,,,,kA 4 ' G' AW 'y' l 91 , 7 f W? ,,I ' L Xl.. .Till --+iMmYfA,L-7WX ' J FOOT BALL 1 N 3, X x s HALFBACK '26f '27 '28 '29 SCHULTZ CAPTAIN-TACKLE '27- '28- '29 DANIELS FULLBACK-TACKLE '28- '29 COURTRIGHT END MOSSHOLDER CENTER FLANINGAM TACKLE 28 HEAVYWEIGHT LETTERMEN Page, 86 .. -s- . 1 gif: V7 .

B. LINDELL Coach Lindell came to us this fall to coach football, and enter his first machine in the newly formed conference. He came on the field, the first night of football practice, an utter stranger. In his own quiet way he instilled in each fellow on the team a new spirit that prevailed throughout the season. Everyone that has played football for Lindy,', will carry with him into the future, only the fondest of memories. In the classroom lXflr. Lindell was always the same Big Brother to the students, that he had been on the gridiron, and everyone that knows him will remember him as such. COACH L. E. SHARPE Mr. Sharpe also came to us a total stranger, but it didnlt take him long to become acquainted. He is our basketball coach and assistant football coach. One characteristic that the basketball squad found in lNlr. Sharpe, is his quiet manner between halves. He doesn't believe in the Rage and Stormu type of coaching when his team is on the little end of the score. He has a way of pointing out good and bad points that sends the team back into the game with that do or die spirit that has always characterized Dixon teams. hlr. Sharpe, besides being an excellent coach, has already prove11 himself a teacher of no mean ability. BIANAGERS Harold Dockery and Lawrence Slick were the football managers this year. They will go down in history as two of the finest managers Dixon has ever had. Both the field and the team were always in best condition due to the efficiency of these popular members of the squad.

At the start of the game Dixon took the lead and held it till the final Whistle signified that the game had terminated. The score stood at the end of the contest: Dixon IS, Amboy 7. D1xoN vs. ROCK FALLS CNon-Con.j The following Friday the Dixon team took a trip down the river and tasted their first defeat, at the hands of Rock Falls High School. The home boys went into the fray with the old Dixon determination, but it seemed that Rock Falls has created some invisible force that completely overwhelmed that the old legendary D. H. S. never say die trait. You say what was the score? Oh! Here you are: Dixon II, Rock Falls 19. i DIXON vs. AMBOY CNon-Con.j The next game was played on the new Dixon High gym Hoor. This game was the first High School game to be played on the new floor. You say how did the game come out? Oh, Dixon just beat the ears off the Amboy players and sent them home on the small end of a 22-I3 score. DIXON vs. DEKALB Dixon's next game took the team to DeKalb High, where they were again defeated. The Dixon fellows played a wonderful defensive game, the DeKalb boys were only able to get one point during the first period. At the end of the third quarter the score stood 4 to 1 in Dixon's favor. But in the last few minutes of play the DeKalb quintet got hot and sank three long shots. The score at the end of the contest was: Dixon 4, DeKalb 7. D1xoN vs. BELVIDERE Belvidere sent a very good team to Dixon to play what was supposed to be a good game. But they turned out to be a little too well trained on the scoring end of the game to satisfy the local fellows. The score at the end of the game was: Dixon 8, Belvidere 16. DIXON vs. STERLING Dixon went to Sterling for their next game and instead of winning, as was predicted, the boys had to return home with the slightly uneven score of 9 to I2 weighing heavily on their brows. Dixon 9, Sterling 12. D1xoN vs. ROCHELLE The local squad had visitors on the Friday following the Sterling defeat. The visitor? Oh, they were none other than the Rochelle outfit, but they must have left Draper home ,cause he didn't play in the game. The Rochelle boys seemed more accurate in the art of shooting long shots than were the locals, therefore the score at the end of the game stood: Dixon 8, Rochelle 16. D1xoN vs. DEKALB DeKalb came to Dixon the next Friday to repeat what they did to Dixon at DeKalb, but the local gang didn't like the terms of such a treaty and therefore the score was different than it had been at DeKalb. The final score was Dixon 15, DeKalb 13. D1xoN vs. BELVIDERE The Belvidere boys seemed to have it in for Dixon permanently. Anyhow when the local squad went calling at that city Belvidere won the game by a score of: Dixon 8, Belvidere 23. Pagr QI 5 If ,. A ff Ill f f x. a vvbdih-Li: .-.

The Dixon team made only one basket and two free throws, thus the score at the final whistle was: Dixon 4, Rochelle 29. DIXON vs. Rock FALLS CNon-Con.j Dixon almost turned their final game into victory, but during the final two minutes of the contest the Rock Falls boys won the game by a score of: Dixon 13, Rock Falls 16. THE TOURNAMENT The District Tournament was held in Dixon this year for the first time, starting on Vlfednesday night, Nfarch 6th, ' and concluding the following Saturday night. Rock Falls carried off first honors. Dixon had the misfortune to draw the champions for their first game and were put out of the tournament by the tune of I5 to 7. Ohio was runner-up to Rock Falls and in addition were presented with a sports- manship cup which was open to all the teams in the tourna- ment, but Dixon. It is hoped that we will have the opportunity of being hosts to the teams of this district, next year, as our new gymnasium makes an admirable place for such a meeting.

Bowers organized an Intramural Basketball Tournament for those boys of the student body who do not classify for inter-scholastic participation. These boys were organized into teams and then these teams were entered into an Intra- mural Tournament. Tournaments such as these should prove to be of great benefit to those who intend to come out for the Varsity Team in the remaining years of their high school participation. Under Mr. Bowers this bunch of fellows will receive the best of training in the game itself and in the art of being a good sport. A 1'11gf 93 A A-,.x - L V ' ll all f 'f f f fm. 1, Ile.-'.'

He was a hard fighting man, his speed and eye for the basket were of great value. His good work will be missed next year. GLEN COURTRIGHT ......... Forward Courtie played forward position. His hard playing and fast floor work won him much appreciation. He could always be depended upon for his share of points. EUGENE LEBRE ........., Forward Gene played a fast game as forward. He was as speedy as they make them, covered plenty of ground in a short time and was always at the right place at the right time. Luckily, he has one more year and much is expected of him. ARTHUR TEETER .......... Guard Art played his third and last season of basketball for the purple and white and it is needless to say that he was always there with the goods. On defense he covered his man completely. He will be greatly missed as we lose him by gradua- t1On. THOMAS HASSELBURG ........ Guard-Center Slatz filledthe positions of guard and center exceptionally well and although this is his first year of regular basketball, he played as though he were a veteran. He has one more year to play and it is unnecessary to say that more will be heard of him.

Forward Carlos was one of the hardest and most faithful Workers on the squad. He won his letter through his consistent fight and we ex ect to hear more of him next P year. ROY FLANINGAM .......... Guard The Boy played guard and when he did the position was Well filled. Although handicapped by lack of opportunity he was an able substitute to his team. icGERMANY,, SCHULTZ ......... Manager Germany Schultz was our Basketball Manager this year, and proved himself to be almost as good a manager as he was a Football Captain, and that is almost perfect. He was always around when needed, knew what was to be done, and how to do it. It will be a long time before we again have as fine a manager as Germany .

On March I8 practice started and sixty-five enthusiastic athletes appeared on the roll call for competition. Many of these are eighth grade pupils who will next year be Freshmen and carry on the standards of Dixon High. Due to the lack of uniforms the Seniors were not allowed to participate. The practice lasted for two Weeks during which time the young men received instructions in the fundamentals of football. Besides this, they were taught the system of signals and also indulged in a little scrimmage. With the fighting High School spirit instilled in these young men a bigger and better football team should be the result for next year. The coaches would like to have put their charges through a longer session of practice, but due to the fact many of the boys are out for track, it had to be cut short in order not to inter- fere with the success of that line of athletics. Dixon is the pioneer of the spring practice idea around here. No other schools in this vicinity, as yet, are taking advantage of the balmy spring days to stamp the spirit of a championship team into their men. Both coaches admit that the prospects for the 1930 season look good, even though many valuable men have been lost through graduation. HALL OF FAME The Hall of Fame was created in order that due honor could be given those athletes who have won letters in three branches of athletics in one year, or three letters in the same branch. There are but three boys to be contributed this year, and they are as follows: ROY FLANINGANI Football 4, Track 3. ARTHUR TEETER . Football 4, Basketball 3. FLVVOOD SCHULTZ Football 35 Track 2.

About 40 reported. hfany of the fellows lacked experience but by patient and persistent effort the coaches were able to enter a fair team in the meets we participated in. Our first meet was with Rock Falls, on our home field. Dixon performed well considering their inexperience but the opponents piled up an advantage in the weight events that spelled defeat for our team. The score was Rock Falls 73, Dixon 62. The Conference lXfIeet, the last athletic event of the old Rock River Conference was next. This was held at Sterling. Although we were not among the leaders we showed ability in some events. Namely the distance runs and hurdles. In all Dixon scored 9 points. Following this there was a dual meet with Sterling, there. 'With Higby, their star man, winning first in every event he entered, our hopes were badly smothered by an 86-48 defeat. Dixon, however, placed I-2 in the mile run and the hurdles. The sectional meet, held in Dixon for the first time in several years, was next. It was a miserable day for a track meet, raining most of the time and making fast time impossible. Padgett and Plowman were the only Dixon entries to break into the scoring column. Padgett, running a never-to-be-forgotten race to take second in the 440 and Plowman taking third and fifth places in the high and low hurdles respectively. This gave Dixon 8 points in the meet. Our last meet was with Polo on our home track. The fellows wound up the season by an easy victory, winning 79 to 46.

His time was fast enough to win for him the necessary points to get his letter. Bob is lost to D. H. S. by his graduation. Junior Underwood was another one of our fast men in the dashes. He also Won his ND through speed and fight. Undie also has run for the last time under the old Purple and White Banner. Ioo YARD DASH George Wolford is our main spring in the Ioo yard dash, and he has one more year to run for Dixon. Page 98 ' f 7 ,- AYAfg--9xb - 'lliflfmillf u lll lg XL ' fimxwl nl ....

He had speed enough to win his letter. He is a Junior and therefore has another year of competition left. 440 YvARD DASH john Padget with a smooth stride and a fighting heart, piled up points for Dixon in the 440. John will certainly be missed as he is taken from us by graduation. HALF lX'lILE Ray Spotts was our dark boy, and he sure meant business. Although small in stature, Spotts could keep up with the best of them. His best race was the cross country with Sterling, in which he placed first. NIILE Robert Girndt was a great little miler, as well as a fine captain for Dixon. Bob practiced faithfully and his work showed splendid results. He leaves us to run in the colors of Carthage College next year. Good luck Bobl HURDLES Carl Plowman, Captain-Elect, was one of the individual stars of our team. He most always captured a place in the high and low hurdles. A promising career is predicted for him. Best wishes for a championship team in I93O, Carlos. POLE VYAULT George Brunett is our handy man in the pole vault. Luckily he can perform in this particular event one more season for us. XVEIGHTS Ray Daniels is our strong man. He throws the shot and javelin with equal ability. Ray was the high point man of the season for Dixon. He has three more years to promote the glory of D. H. S.

The director, Miss Peterson, has shown great ability and patience in the accomplishments of such a large class. The hrst part of the year was spent in games and calisthenics. Basketball and volleyball followed later. In the latter part of the year an intra-class basketball tourna- ment was sponsored, the teams playing after the regular class period on Tuesdayls and Friday's. Freshmen playing Sophomores, and the Juniors the Seniors. The winners of the two games played, as did the losers.

Characters--Crystal Gazer and world renowned journalist, Robert Lesage. Crystal Gazer-4'Ah, lVIeI but things are dull. I haven't had a test of my abilities for many days. If only someone would wish to know something of the future or even the present. What! Whom have we here? If it isn't my old class- mate Robert Lesage, that world known journalist. I wonder if he will recognize me. I hope not! I believe he does not. Probably I shall have a knowledge of the whereabouts of your friends. Robert- Can you read the present as well as the future? If so, I would like to know something about my old friends, who graduated from Dixon High School in IQ3O, and whom I have not seen for many years. Crystal Gazer- Master, the present reveals itself as the pages of an open book to those who will but look into the depth of the crystal where nothing is hidden. Now seat yourself and fix your eyes upon this perfect sphere and we shall soon know the whereabouts of your friends. CBoth are seated looking fixedly at the crystalj Crystal Gazer- Ah, the haze begins to take a definite form and I see a magni- ficent building, from the portals of which youths are seen going and coming. It is the new Dixon High School. But the scene is changing, and an airplane crosses with the speed of Mercury. What! The plane lands on the top of a building, and from the passenger seat steps Professoress Joyce Warner of the Hartford High School. The plane takes OH again under the skillful control of Douglas Curran, daredevil aviator of the Roof to Roof Airplane Transportation Companyu organized and owned by Dan Kaufman, President and Robert Sworm, Business lVIanager. But we will have to hurry on if we are to tell the things seen in the crystal, which changes rapidly as the panoramic landscapes of the motion picture reel. New figures appear. They are Roy Flaningam, Wilson Walker, Edward Campbell, Edward Nagle, and Lyle VVade who have gained distinction by organiz- ing a world-wide known club called Leave IVomen Alonew. A fiame appears in the crystal and under the flame who but Charles Trombold. He appears upon the witness stand, charged with murdering catfish without first giving them ether. I-Ie is defended by Nathan Drew and lvlary Clark, two, who have built up a name for themselves in the law profession by defending criminals. But wait a minute! The stern judge is no other than Kenneth NIossholder, judge of the district court. Agreat stadium appears, and on the track are two humans traveling too fast for the eye of man to recognize them. At the finish they are no other than Elwood Page 103 rafdbragf 3 MQ' In ff : -'.. .a ssists f . af' f fewfvaiftwalf I 'I Mmm. - -g Fi, - ff-9 H 1-TL-f j ' 14.4 I if fwafllllwrlujiihwa ff mg , ' 1 'NJ XR ly ,f-'fa I .

But let's see, something must have happened I see a crowd gathering and in the center of attraction is no other than the star performer Dean Ball and Viola Vaage, who have organized an orchestra of I8 pieces, each of them playing all of the instruments at different times. Now I see Hying fingers. They belong to none other than the world,s champion typists, Rexine Hudson and Ben Smith. Snow and ice and in an Eskimo's hut Dean Hey, traveling salesman for Hey Brothers Ice Cream, is trying to sell the Eskimo people ice cream, to keep them from getting too warm. What! Two alike! Bill Reilly and Dora Behrends are now starring in Coal Valley theater production which is just starting there. Twenty-two consecutive seasons under the able proprietorship of Merle Drew. Such a glare! I can hardly recognize the person, but in spite of the brass buttons I see Thomas Coffey, now chief-of-police in the little burg of Chicago. 'AA great hall appears. It is the hall of the House of Representatives of the United States Congress. Three persons seem to monopolize the Hoor. They are Charlotte Brooks, Jarloth Jones, and Josephine O,Hare. ,Iarloth so heated in her debate, brings her fist down upon the bald-headed representative from Arizona, Winston Smith, whereupon she puts him to sleep. However, the house doctor, Frances Praetz, formerly of Australia, has been summoned, and no fear need be held for the recovery of Smith under the able care of Dr. Praetz. How strange! I see the mouth of the dragon. It is the entrance to Finefield and Savage Chop Suey joint in Shanghai. At the desk I see Edward Finefield, the brains of the concern, and at the fountain, William Savage serving drinks to the foreigners who do not relish his chop suey. Dimly I see in the large city of VVoosung, Illinois, a garage, The Suter Motor Car Company , Merna Suter, owner. Geraldine Williams, Velma Place and Avis Richardson are mechanics and have built up an enormous trade in treating the 1970 Model Lizzie. g'Next I am taken to a elaborate art studio in Paris, and there busily painting is Agnes Bally, world renowned artist. Ah! who is she drawing-the model is Mavis Bywick-who has Won numerous beauty prizes, and now holds the title of Miss America . A dimly lighted theatre, a widely known opera is being witnessed! Ah, What a beautiful voice-I know I have heard it before, it is Miss Josephine Hart- internationally known opera singer, .ah such a soothing, shrill voice. Listen to the bands-tramp-tramp-tramp, we are now at West Point and the whole academy is drilling, the officer in charger is Kenneth McLaren, who has led the U. S. through many tough battles.
