To the Senior This is the prelude that now marks its close, Whose deep, rich tones have sung of certainty, And made of knowledge its clear melody, It is a promise that its song bestows, ' Of aspirations worthy of acclaim, Of honor gained without its false conceit, And willingness to bear the grim defeat; It tells of countless deeds that bear no name. Y ours is the 131e1ude whose last strains are played, Y ours 15 the song that follows In its wake; Slowly and quietly now the prelude fades, Y et I can hear it still reverberate. Y ours is the rest,4the prelude 110w may cease, But in the song there lies your masterpiece. MARGARET PECK. Page Thirty-livc 0N SHORE LEAVE . t Hodge Podge Ah, sweet mystery of life! We have always heard of the queer in- gredients that make up the varied senior dish; therefore,.let us analyze their hodge podge. t We discover that soon the Senior Class of ,30 will be divided on the 'question as 'towhich candidate for the Ptesidency of the United States shall be elected. The principal cause of this controversy will be the aspi- rants, Ardis Roberts and Dale Bowen. Ardis may be aided by her hobby, which is talking and arguing, but this will perhaps be balanced by the support Dale will receive from his fair friends. Boys, beware! Annie McPherson wants to be a heartbreaker. This fu- ture men-menacer says that the most irritating remark is having to listen to Harlan Park remark, And you didift even tell your mother! But that isnt as bad, so Evelyn Teander thinks, as HOh Yeah ?ii Paul Anderson wants to grow tall -a lofty ambition, eh? His hobby, so he says, is experimenting with automobiles. We wonder if he means tinkering with his Ford. Are you aware that we have in our midst an embryo Sherlock Holmes? Carol Bruce has had so much prac- tical experience in shadowing the ever elusive hairpins that she is sure that she can even rival William Powell.

We just know that his voice will cause the wires to throb. Marvin Graybeal goes in for col- lecting. In school he collected a string of hearts; now he wants to collect a string of theatres. Perhaps it is the attraction of op posites that makes Ruth Sheppard wish to be a giant. Although everyone seems to think Margaret Barron and Ruth Rouss are so different, their answers to the questionnaire were very similar. Margaret wishes to be on the foot- ball team, while Ruth craves to gar- ner laurels as a track star. Odd as it may seem, there is something dis- tasteful to Ruth about hearing cloth rip, while Margaretis pet aversion is squeaking Chalk and stuck-up people. Did you know that East High is to be represented in Hollywood by none other than the blond-headed Katherine Beckman, who hates shiny noses? Still we hope that her career will make her shine as a star. S. O. S.! Leland Cornwall has a secret aim to overcome his bashful- ness.

In this article we have hoped to compile a. helplul and interesting bit ofstatistics. We sincerely hope we havent given away any secrets. Senior Idiosyncrasies True it is that seniors may show a surprising lack of knowledge on world topics. In fact, some of them even think that Will Rogers was our representative at the Naval Parley in London, but on topics of such world- wide interest as long hair, long skirts, loud ties, and double dates the seniors speak with vociferous authority. Axel Carlson: The return to long skirts and long hair does not neces- sarily mean a lengthened life, but we boys like them. As for double dates, they are the thing without a doubte- less expense plus equal enjoyment. Albert Ames: Double dates are always a huge success with the elon- gated 1930 girl. Jennings Crawford: llong hair only increases my fear of women. Double dates are impossible Without the fairer sex; therefore, I can never answer your question? Helen Bayer or Irene Bayer tNote we dOIft know which we inter- viewedl : llLoud ties are worn by boys; thus I dislike them. I can throw no light on the subject of double dates? Kathryn Anderson: III am in favor of loud ties and will do my best to push the issue, but double dates are terrible in a Ford coupe? Lola Leifheit: Warden wears loud ties ; therefore, it is my duty to my Warden to love them. We,re for single dates and many of them. Virginia. Green: Fm for bigger. and louder ties. N o, I know nothing of dates in any form. Let someone with experience, speak for me. Blanche W aterman: liLoud ties are perfect on football players. We want our dates alone? Margaret Plummer: Jack must wear louder ties if he expects to hold my affections. We always like double dates, and know nothing of the other kind. Carol Bruce: til am an ardent ad- mirer of loud ties; in fact, I admire my home room teacherls taste? Donald R. Boudinot: IlIt. is my opinion that'the 1930 girl with her long dress and long hair is simply putrid. - One should realize double dates are impossible on a bicycle.

Then one day early in Septem- ber the boat docks at a lovely island which the merry group thinks is their goal the real Pleasure Island. So sure are they that this is the object of their search that they even decide to build a town on the shore. Each decides upon his own vocation, the one most suited to his talent. Rich- ard McGahan with the help of his wife, the former Virginia West, edits the Slooptown News? Lloyd Reise begins a thriving trade as a photo- grapher, all the natives crowding around him curious to see what his little black box can accomplish with such strange looking ittoreigners? The huge gymnasium on the corner is supervised by Lois W iley and Nile Canon, with Tom Thompson as offl- cial starter at the track meets, and Hale Brown as swimming instructor.

Josephine Ris- hurg goes ashore with Orville Lewis, the interpreter, to find out about the directions to Pleasure Island. Edris Morgan and Dorothy Porter also de- cide to go on shore, where they plan to start a Parisian branch of the Mor- gan-Markussen Clothing establish- ment. XVhen one of the French movie directors asks who is the leading actress on board.

Most of the company still remain to heat aimlessly over the Sea of Life in search of the elusive Island of Pleasure. One morning, months later, Sam Ginsberg declares his in- tention of landing so that he can start an automobile tire corporation. Only Bernice Lassiter, Paul Gifford, and Gilbert Bolton will buy stock in his company. At the island of COM- .MERCE the boat is docked, and they put ashore. At the last minute the Wet Bayer sisters decide to go with them so that they can build up the aspirin business left them by a relative. After this, Henry Jerome gets so lonesome so far away from school that with Phil Jester he starts to swim back to East High. One after- noon there is a terrific noise below in the cabin section.

This was voiced by Harold Thayer. Yes, it is too bad, but it seems that even we arenit getting any nearer Pleasure than they were, says Mar- vin Graybeal. When they reach the next Island, every one is secretly hoping that his journey s end may be there. Some, discouraged and too listless to look farther, give up their search and de- cide to remain. When the ship sails 011, only a few of the seniors remain. These few have escaped JOBS and COLLEGES and whatever else has taken their fellow student away. They are still wandering to and fro 011 the open sea, 11o goal set, 1101' none arrived at as yet-still pleasure bent. however. Not yet have they come to the realization that most of the happi- ness they would achieve should come through work. For many long weary months the ship has drifted.

Page Forty-xix TDEASUDEI TDDVE iiTom, Dick and H arryi, I like nicknames because they seem to break down formal barriers and create such friendliness among peo- ple. Even if they often are begun in teasing, I am always interested in learning the origin of such names. Youill agree with me when I say Puss is a queer nickname. My aunt was trying hard not to be vexed by two older brothers, but try as she might, father teased her so much that she lost her temper. She immediately fell to fighting, kicking, and scratch- ing until Dad began to call her a cat, Pussy, Pussy? From that time on, llPussli was resorted to as a taunt to remind her of her ungovernable tem- per. Once when my uncle complained because he had been asked to help his mother, and consequently he was be- ing as slow as he could, my grand- father called to him, Hurry up, Mose? Immediately his older brothers tmy Dad, no doubt, the ringleadery were convulsed with laughter, and from then on they called him Mose. My Dad was directly or indirectly involved in the giving of such names as Tad, Huddy Mae, Bee, Nook, N ick, and innumerable others. If you see. how unmerciful he was in giving nicknames, perhaps youill excuse me for calling my sister llDuke. Many of my relatives call my little sister IIPunkfi but I, as I have said, call her l Duke.,i Both, no doubt, sound queer to ears unfamiliar to such seemingly senseless appellations. When she was about six years old, she had her picture taken, and the picture showed starry eyes, a fat . chubby round face, and a Cheshire cat grin. What more could be expected from loving sisters than a name Pumkiif, shortened to liPunk ? One summer evening my sister speed-. ily gobbled her supper, not an ele- gant expression to be sure, but strik- ingly to the pointy, and with surpris- ing alacrity ran outdoors to play and left me with the dishes to do. liCall me when they,re ready to dry ! And away she went to play ball. It takes a healthy pair of lungs to'outshout ten or fifteen hilarious youngsters, but it was either exert all my lung power or do the dishes alone, and I was determined not to do my sisters work for her. aim not lazy; I just dont like to workJ It was physically impossible for me to make myself heard.

Miss Macy and the Mexican Marauders ttAre you going, down to Mexico again this summer, Miss Macy? I asked, recalling lurid headlines of our newspapers, or was it too exciting for you Em nWell, rather? she answered, hit you call being held up by bandits ex- citing. Scentiug a good story, I pricked up my ears. It seems that last summer she traveled in the land of tortillas, taran- tulas, and torrid tomales. Using Mex- ico City as her base, each morning she drove to nearby locations and cactus courts where she sketched and Page F iffy painted the quaint, picturesque 01d cathedrals and missions made famous by Ramona. One day as she breathlessly sat in the back seat of a Mesquite dodger, which was swerving down a snake path, she saw With a palpitating pulse that the whole Mexican army, or so it seemed to her, was swooping down upon them. ttQuick! said the driver. ItI-Iide your valuables V, nVV'hy ? asked Miss Macy. What will these soldiers do ? Soldiers, my eer ejaculated the driver, or words to that effect in the latest Mexican slang. They,re ban- dits. They i'iave held up a garrison and have stolen the uniforms. Quick thinking on the part of his passengers kept them from, being too frightened to enjoy the adventure. Miss Macy,s companion put her val- uables in her handkerchief and placed them under her hat, while Miss Macy tucked her ring, a keepsake, under one glossy braid and viewed the scene with a serene and secure smile. By this time the bandits had almost caught up with them. The driver, pretending his car was stalled with a balky sparkplug, appeared concerned with his refractory auto. Start the carf' they commanded. iiDonit speak Mexican, replied the driver, untruthtully. iiThereis no use for delay. Start the car, commanded the swarthy- faced fellow with a menacing eye, holding the barrel of the hlunderhuss at his forehead. iiDonlt speak Mexican? repeated the driver doggedly. He was holding up bravely, but with beads of perspir- ation standing out on his brow. He was more concerned than the Amer- icans over the situation, for he was more familiar than they with the banditsi happy little habit of shoot- ing men and thinking 110 more of it than of slapping a mosquito. Finally the fact that it was useless filtered. through their thick pates, and away they went in a cloud of dust and sand heas, leaving behind three bundles of frayed nerves. W hen the three motorists drove in- to the town a few minutes later, they found the inhabitants in excited fury, not only because their town had been sacked, but because their afternoon siesta had been interrupted. In spite of her thrilling adventure, Miss Macy is anticipating another trip to Mexico sometime, for she feels, like other wotk-a-day Amer- icans, that the romantic glamour of old M exico is enticing t0 the traveler. MARGARET BARRON 30. The Wind,s Song The wind sings a weird song; A repelling, mysterious tale, A story of a humans wrong Told in the sweeping gale. A human s suffering is in its moan, A voice of terror and of woe, Someone is weeping all alone, Haunted wherever they go. What horrid sights and stories The winds song illustrates, What downfalls and what glories Its keenness penetrates. I would that I could understand What all that it does tell, But it is like the shifting sand Of an old forgotten well. And so it sings its weird song; Its repelling, mysterious tale, Its story of a humaifs wrong Told in the sweeping gale. TI-IELMA GILLESPIE A31. P0172 Fifty-onc Sammy Sam was happy-oh, he was ex- tremely happy. As he briskly walked down Jackson avenue, he snapped his fingers, cut capers, and hummed snatches of songs familiar along 42nd Street. His low-crowned straw hat was tilted at a rakish angle, his wide spaced teeth were in full view, and his chalky eyesiolled and snapped as though keeping time with his songs. Sam was a little colored boy, fresh from the hill country of Alabama, and his greatest ambition was to ac- quire a 110,111,11 eddicationf, Loss of parents in a landslide had early clim- med his high hopes of going north for an education, and they were made darker still when his poverty forced him into Birminghanfs dreaded riverii district, a portion occupied wholly by negroes and a district where knives and nsmoke wagonstt were not only carried by most of its nondescript inhabitants, but were considered absolutely necessary to ones longevity. Bitter experience had been his sole and very thorough teacher, and a willingness to work and initative his greatest assets. It was these latter traits'that secured for him the coveted position of nshine boy at the great Union sta- tion. It was also these same traits that drew down upon his wise little head the hatred of the lordly Hred- caps and porters, who were heard to ren1a1k bitterly, Dat Sam is jist wo1ki11 haid so 5 he can beat one of us outin a job? As a cruel revenge these fellows never missed a Chance to twit poor Sam publicly on his pet ambition, a northein education.

But thoughts of a superior educa- tion so filled Sams mifid that these jests were quickly forgotten, and he would soon be discussing his ambi- tions with great vehemence and elaba oration to one of his sympathetic pa- trons. nYessuh, I wonfs to know how to read and write and talk proper so is ah can write books an, make poitry lak Mistuh Dunbar? Paul Lawrence Dunbar was Sam's god. To Sam he stood for all that was good in an education. One day as he was lost in one of his many pointless dreams of learning, a portly immaculately-dressed gentleman calle ed for a shine. After Sam had gone through the hrst stages of his famous iigloss finish, he began in his likable spontaneous manner a discussion of that which was uppermost in his mind. Sam noted with a little start of pleasure that this man did not smile at his crude speech and unpol- ished manners as some of his cuse tomers often did, and unwilling so soon to lose this fine listener he p10- longed the shine as much as he dared. After the shoes had been polished and repolished until further polish- ing would have aroused suspicion, Sam 1elucta11tly signified that he had concluded. The 111a11,however, did not rise but sat staring at the boy with a strange i11te1ested look 011 his face. Presently he said, nWhat are you going to do after you get an educa- tion ? Sam was plainly flustered. There were so many things he had in mind, 011 there were just millions and mil- lions of things. After a time he said, ttMister, if ah had a good noithln ed- dication, ah would--well ah would- I'd be a preacher and then Pd teach all of my congregation my eddica- tiC-n. There was a long pause fraught with emotionsthen, Well, get your suit case. I 'am going to give you a northern education. This accounted for Samis extreme display of happiness. But Sanfs cup of joy was filled to overflowing when the evil 01d red-capf, who had made Sanfs life miserable, was forced to carry his battered little suit case to the panting express andeeducation.

MARGARET PECK 31. The Passing of Two Liners at Sea I shall never forget the passing of two large ocean liners I saw at sea. 1t was midnight on the Atlantic about 800 miles off the coast of England. A soft, balmy breeze blew the salt spray in our faces. Although the night air was fast turning colder, we stood on the aft deck in order not to miss the sight. We shivered from the cold spray, our teeth chattering to the time of a piece of lively square-dance music coming from a sailoris harmonica. Everyone was straining his eyes to the northward where :1 sudden light appeared, faint though it was, then vanished, and appeared again to re- main a mere glimmer 0n the horizon. Gradually it rose higher and came closer, a blinking light in the rolling North Atlantic. Everyone held his breath, for far out and carried on the chill night air came the thunder of a Whistle in salute to her sister ship. Immediately our own boat roared iorth its answer. The light gradually drew closer. and finally there loomed up out of the darkness the great bow of Fred- erick the VIII? Bells were ringing, people shouting, and lights glaring 011 the water, both boats whistling, 'and the water madly churning in a pitch- black night. This scene lasted but a few seconds, and the light: on her stern grew smaller and smallef. As I stood on the deck and watched it, it gave one final blink and was lost on the Southwest horizon. ALBERT PETERSON, 231. Page F ifty-three My F irst Stage Experience There are many things a stage career will do for one, because it has .a tendency not only to broaden one s mind when he converses with people on irarious subjects pertaining to theatrical life, but also when he talks to professional people in other voca- tions. A person taking up stage work must learn lines, must use good gram- mar, must have a well trained mem- ory, and must cultivate a good speak- ing voice. This work also fits a per- son for other careers by putting con-- Fidence in him through his ability to entertain and hold his audience. My first appearance on the stage, which was at the Strand Theatre at Newton, Iowa. helped me in many ways to acquire a few of these qual- ities. I will never forget that day as long as I live. There I was, booked as a professional actress, and I tliclift even know what a theatrical dressing room was like, or where it was most likely to be found. I had rehearsed the act only twice, but, being egotisti- cal, and confident because I was working with a professional, I was not worried. We arrived at Newton at 12:30 13. 111., found the theatre, and inquired what time the rehearsal would be. I made sure, as we talked to the manager and he assigned us to our dressing rooms, to stay behind, or a little to one side, of. my partner 80 that I did not make any mistakes. An error would have been fatal, for .the manager would not let me go on and my partner did not have his ven- triloquial hgure or any other thing 'with which he could go on alone. Our act required two people and any more 01' less would have made it a failure. After we had dressed and were waiting for our turn to go on, my partner in the front of the theatre and I alone in the wings, the mane ager proceededto question me. All . Pays Fiftyjpur I would say in answer to his ques- 'ti0ns was tiYes, IINoff or HSee my partner about it; he takes care of that? After a.great deal of such questioning, he became discouraged and left me alone. Soon it was our turn. I can picture myself now, my knees wabbling, my throat dry, and with a terrible fear that I would get stage fright as I did some years be- fore at a musical recital. After a few tugs at my dress, I walked upon the stage. In my part I had much talk- ing to do as I had to give an intro- duction and explain that my partner had suddenly taken sick, and that he would be unable to appear at this per- formance, when in reality he was sit- ting in the audience, waiting for his cue. My voice sounded very loud at the start, but became fainter later on. It seemed to me that I would never get to my partnerls cue, and I think he must have thought so too. I alv most laughed when he appeared upon the stage after our cross-fire comedy talk, which took place with him in the audience. for he had large heads of persplration standing on his fore- head. heeausc he was afraid I would break down. During our act, which consisted of comedy magic, the responsibility rested on me as I had to do the tricks of' magic legitimately. Immediately afterward my partner would do the trick. then expose it, and add a touch of comedy to it. Our first one was that of producing an egg from a randkerchief. The handkerchief is shown on both sides and immediately upon my folding the ends together, an egg is made to appear, which is very mystifying until the comedian attempts to do the trick and bungles it, thus exposing it to the people for a hearty laugh. Following this is the candle trick, one that is very amus- .ing as well as mystifying. A candle We? is made to disappear and reappear under a can at the magiciants com- mand, and again the trick is exposed for another hearty laugh. Somehow or other I managed to get through the hrst performance without forgetting any lines. After our first performance and while wait- ing for the second, my partner told me that the next time we went on I would not do so well. At that time I thought he was teasing me, as I had gone through the first so well. But as usual he was right. I did forget some unimportant lines, but by his quick thinking we did not attract attention to my mistake. The third and last performance of the clay went smoothly. That was my first expe- rience upon the stage, but it was not my last. vw MARY ROJEK, 31.

ESTHER OSNESS ,31. Heroes: Ancient and Modern The hero of the Arabian Knights, rescued fair princesses, killed drag- ons, overcame evil spirits, and trav- eled around on magic carpets. On his magic rug he visited the princess of a large city and fell in love with her. Often he lost his carpet and went wandering around the country, hunting for his princess and the lost city. Such is the way it goes with a hero. The hero of the Arabian Knights was dressed in costly silks and lived in luxury. So loved and reverenced was he by the Arab fathers that he was used as an ex- ample for their children. The modern hero, while he does not rescue princesses, performs the equally heroic task of rescuing pals from the clutch of the Arctic wastes; he kills microbes, manls great enemy; he overcomes evil influences; and he travels about in a man-made bird of the skyethe airplane. What greater example can be given than our own Lindbergh? Unlike the hero of olden days, he cares little for costly silks and luxury. Shy though he is, always avoiding publicity and showy speeches, yet he has all the heroic qualitieseinitiative, manliness, and courage-that characterize the real hero. Like the Arabian Knight, he, too, is held up as an example to the youth of the day. KENNETH HOLLENQUIST, ,32. Page Fiftysfiv'e ..- egg get Books for Vacation Reading iiLabelsg, A.

Pugs Fiftyweveu Wot ' i --a-.am. I W v' . As It Might Have Been in 1194 Good afternoon, ladies and gentle- men of the radio world, You are now listening to station XYZ, broadcast- ing from Torquilstone Castle and giving you a battlefront account of the siege of the castle by men and allies of Cedrids household and the forest outlaws. The besiegersx are all lined up in the adjoining forest around the outside of the castle, all set for the word from the leader. During the pause here, while we wait for the opening charge, Iill tell you something of the castle itself. It covers, I should say, two hundred acres, and around the outside is a moat about thirty feet wide. In the center I can see a little stone house, which I have been told is called the barbican. Weire all ready to begin now. There goes the Saxon blast, which is promptly answered by a Norman from the wall of the castle. As far as I can tell, a knight in sable armor is leading the besiegers and now heads for the castle. Front de Boeuf leads the defenders. Anyone can tell him by his gigantic form. Say, what? I mean those archers are some shooters, and a stream of arrows comes flying out of the green so thick you can hardly see. Boy, Iim glad Iim not down there! As you perhaps know, Pm in a. Ford airplane with a sound-proof cabin, the greatest Ford achievement in years, so don,t listen for the motors. Now the two leaders go for a single combat, and everyone else fol- lows suit. Here they come. The Black Knight swings again with an axe given him by one of his follow- ers! XNhat a swing he does give that axe! No one could stand before that, and Front de Boeuf goes down like snow before the sun! Now theyire Page Fifly-c iglrt headed for the postern. T hey 1'e g0- ing to make a raft and go across the moat. While the raft is being built, I will again say that you are listening to station XYZ, broadcasting the storm- ing of the Castle of .Torquilstone. W ell, they are across now, but I hardly think it will do them any good because the men on top of the wall are endeavoring to loosen a large stone and topple it over on them. There goes one knight after another down from the wall. Thereis one they calft hurt! Again there is a lull, and at this time I might tell you of the terrible story of Ulricais captivity within the castle walls all these long years, but just now I must inform you of the radio message from below, which an- nounces Athelstanek promise to give a banquet at Coningsburgh Castle if his side is victorious. Knowing Athelstaueis love for pasties and other delicacies, you can guess what an elaborate dinner he will serve. Now there is something hanging there on the wall of the castle. I caift quite make it out from here, but it looks like a red hag, and if my eyes areift deceiving me, the castle is on fire. Well, its all up now. Either the besiegers will give up the castle or will stay and burn, and I rather think theyire coming out. Yes, there they come now, and the besiegers rush in to save the inhabitants and prisoners. Well, ladies and gentlemen, Iill see you at the wedding of Ivanhoe and Rowena next Saturday through this same network of stations. Your an- nouncer was Naham Gracknamee. Good day, all.

Because it was through their own efforts that the booklet was written, it was appropriate that the presentae tion should be made at this time so that the student body might rededi- cate themselves with even deeper siti- eerity t0 the fulfillment of those ideals for which the school stands. After the foreword which explains the purpose of the booklet and gives the names of those whose coopera- tion made it possible, the book con- tains the Ten Commandments of As- sembly conduct, Proverbs Helpful to Classroom and Corridor Courtesy, Ten Virtues of Conversation, the School Party, Banquet Etiquette, and a lengthy article on the History and Traditions of East High School. Another outstanding feature is the summary of the statistics gathered by the score cards which were circulated among the students in order to ascer- tain the information of how our boys and girls rank in honesty, thought- fulness, sportsmanship, reliability, and initiative.

Page Sixly-ane Athletic Dinner A joint dinner of the physical edu- cation department, school nurses, dental department and school doctors was held April 2 in the East High cafeteria. The reservations for the event were in charge of Mrs. Hutto. The program consisted of an address by Miss Bessie Goodrich and a demon- stration by the swimming classes under the direction of Mr. Russell. The following students took part: Hazel Black, Betty Crisman, Mabel F aust, Martha Foster, F rancine Hig- gins, Florence Killon, Edith Newton, Roberta Reynolds, Marjorie Steel- smith, Helen Kile, Alvena Stromberg, Eva Swim, Edwanna tWalker, and Lois Wiley. East High Has May F ete The annual May Festival, spon- sored by the seniors and the athletic department, was held on the East High campus, Wednesday, May 21. The May Queen, Hazel World, and Cardinal, Orville Lewis, who were chosen by the popular vote of the seniors, presided over the festivi- ties. The attendants were: Margaret Plummer, Margaret Peterson, Lois Wiley, Dorothy Porter, Nellie Op- penheim, Harlan Park, Miles Wil- son, Jack Brownsou, Dale Bowen, and Nile Canon. Clever dances were given by girls representing English, Dutch, Japan- ese, American Colonial, and French maidens. Cicero Class Makes Brilliant Showing Mrs. Storyis Latin 6 class at the first marking period claimed the clis- tinetion of being the only class in which all students received a one. Evidently Latin is not such a ildeadl, subject after all. This is the hrst class in ten years which has studied V ere gills ilAeneid. i Page 5f.rty-two Ten Students Heat Judge F aville Because of the importance of Judge Faville'ls address on llCriminals ten students were excused from class March 20 to attend his lecture. On their return, they gave reports to the various classes. Those selected were Paul Gifford, D011 Thompson, John Ford, Vernon Holstad, Ruth Rouss, Helen Hanson, Clara Rosenheld, Lu- cille Johnson, La Ray Warren, and Helen Kile. East High Students Attend Ames Conference Four students of East High at- tended the high school character con- ference held at Ames from March 2123. The East High representatives were Lois Wiley, secretary of the student council; Nile Canon, vice president of the council; Virginia West, chairman of the citizenship committee; and John Adlon, chair- man of the campaign committee. High schools from all over the state sent representatives. The P. T. A. made this trip possible by voting to pay the expenses of our four repre- sentatives. New Bicycle Racks Installed Upon arriving at school Monday. April 7, the bicyclers found a grand surprise in store for them. The School Board had installed new bieycle racks on the grounds between the building and the gymnasium. M iss Patterson Returns Miss Mary Estelle Patterson, Latin instructor, returned the hrst of April from a two months visit to Florida. She motored there with her friend, Miss Mlae Goodrell, and spent several weeks in the heart of the citrus country in Lake Wales, Flor- ida.

E rnest t , W The spring play, ttEmestF was capably presented in the East High auditorium, May 8 and 9, under the direction of Miss Helen Woodman. The theme of the play is the fond- ness of English girls for the thrilling and confldential name of Ernest. This obsession for the name is so fascinat- ing that it makes any who hears it irresistible. The frantic efforts of two young men to make it appear that they have this magic cognomen pro- vide many humorous situations and serve to keep the audience in a state of merriment. A rose garden scene, which was used as a background for the second and third acts, was one of the prettiest settings ever made for an East High production. A double cast was used in the pro- duction, cast I presenting it on Thursday night, and Cast II on F ri- day night. Cast I John XVorthing ..........

If one may judge from the num- ber of 101.335 who have taken part in activities this semester, the class of 1933 will not experience many such regrets. The lOBis who have been active in extra-curricular activities are as Jfol- lows: Girls Glee Club: and Ardis Olson. Orchestra : Jane Brown. Band: Lorna Rhenis, Ralph Stiles. Jack Stafford, and David Tobis. Out for golf : Tom Hall, W illiam Hill, Emile Tassin, Bill Phillips, Le- Roy Mahaffey, Bernard Peterson, and Wendell Smith.

Holds Annual Dinner More than two hundred parents and teachers attended the annual East High P, T. A. banquet which was held in the School Cafeteria, April 15. The program was given by the dramatic and music departments under the supervision of Miss Helen Woodman and Mr. Harold Tallman. Grant Swanson acted as chairman of the program illustrating public speaking as ordinarily conceived. Pantomime in dramatics was shown by the giving of ballads by Helen Asehim and Barbara Harding. The part voice has. to play in dramatic work was demonstrated in a dialogue given by Lucille Buck and Harold Shover. Ruth Sheppard read a narra- Eloise Hodges Page Simty-four tive poem to show work in interpre- tation. A one-act play, which com- bined all four phases of drama work, was given, the following students taking part: Dwight Smith, Margaret Holtman, Francine Higgins. Nellie Oppenheim, Sam Turk, and Dick Simpson. Those assisting with properties, costumes, and stage for the produc- tion of the play were Don Hapton- stahl, Dale Bassett. Vivian lVl'arquis. Daisy Geode, Willard Fredrigill, Jennings Crawford. Leland Staples. and. several from Mr. Hostettefs Classes. Ruth Sheppard acted as stu- dent director of the play. i The music department presented the boys, quartette, the boysi glee club, and the small chamber group. Paper Drive Is a Success Enthusiasm ran 50 high in the paper drive held March 31-April 8, that this drive is now another item in the list of successful events which have been made possible by the hearty cooperation of the entire school. So hearty was the support that the students succeeded in gathering a ton more paper than was brought in dur- ing the last drive in 1928. The pro- ceeds increased the general fund, which is spent for the good of all students, by $442.71. Home Room 10 emerged victor in the drive by averaging $1.08 per capita. Horne Room 16 won second place with an average of $1.04 per capita. Home Room 104 won third place and Home Room 110 ranked fourth. East High Artist Designs It is interesting to note that the cut adorning the cover page of the April issue of the TTParent Teacher Newhsii was designed and executed by one of our East High art students, Eugene Lundberg. The cut which portrayed a gardener at work was a linoleum block. ,MEFQ gW East in O'ratorical Contest Five industrious East High stu- dents competed in the preliminaries of the National Oratorical Contest, which were held in 311, Friday, March 31. Those competing were Margaret Peterson, speaking 011 Re- 1'eadi11g the Constitution ; Lowell Dunlavy, 011 tlAmerican Democracy ; Ruth Rouss, 011 rtWhat the Constitu- tion Means to Y 01W; Merle Wildey, o11 llT he Contents of the Constitu- tionli; and Felix W illiams, 011 llThe Negro and the Constitutionf', It was required that all the orationsbe 011 some phase of the constitution. Lowell Dunlavy and Margaret Peterson tied for first place in the preliminaries. At a later giving of the orations, held April 3, Lowell emerged victor. He also represented East High in the City contest, placing third.

East Advertises Subjects Sa1e5111ansl1ip plus is being used in home rooms this semester to sell sub- jects of the curriculum. In the form of short talks, students tell of the individual merit of various subjects. Almost all courses are represented, especially the major ones Des Moines High Schools V Receive Compliment. I The commercial departments of the Des Moines High Schools hold the distinction of having one of the most original courses of study printed in the 1930 edition of the pamphlet 0F our Courses of Study? issued by the Gregg PublishingCompany. The course was submitted by Miss Maud Searl of the East High typing and shorthand department. The following extract is from the pamphlet : HThe following outlines give peri- od-by-period assignments for the e11- tii'e elementary course in typewrit- ing in four widely separated high schools known for ,the superior quaL ity of their instruction: East High School, Des Moines, Iowa; San Diego, California, Senior High School; Hebrew Technical School for Girls, New York City; Argentine I-Iigl1'Scliool, Kansas City, Kansas. East Adopts New Plan for i Ticket Sale I The plan for selling-tiekets 1501' the play Ernestll was entirely different from any plan ever tried in East High before. Each student .who sold two tickets was given one ticket free. If a student sold ten tickets,- her was given hve free tickets, etc. I11 this way it was possible foreveryvstudent to attend the play without cost. T l1ese' free tickets could be used in any way the student desiredegiven to his friends, sold, or put away as souve- nirs. The reserve seat plan was dif- ferent this time also. The boxloffice was open every morning from 8:00 olclock to 8:30 oiclock, during both lunch periods, and again at the close of school. Reservation could be made as soon as a ticket washought. ' Students Present Play Because of its successful presenta- tion before the P. T. A. ,,.011 .March 18, a one act play was given at two as-se111blies, Monday, March 21... The characters i11;.t-he pi'oduction were students of the'Public Speaking II class. The cast was as follows: Clifford Powers hiargar'et Peterson, Carroll Caldwell, and; D011 Hapt01'1- stahl Page Sixtyefivc East Wins H onors in M usic Contest The fact that music is intensely in- teresting to many of our students is easily shown by the Outcome of the music contests in which. our musicians have participated. Competing in the sub-district and city music contests which were held in East High, March 13 and 14, our musicians won three first places, five second places, and four third places. The first places were won by the boysi glee club, the boys, quartet, and Ralph Miller, oboe soloist. Second places were woniby the orchestra, girls? glee club, chorus, tenor solo, Warden Van Gundy, and flute solo, Frederick Johnson. Third places were won by the band; trum- pet solo, Lowell Ebersolefbaritone solo, Lloyd Latham; and trombone solo, Donald Ortlund. The result of the district music con- test April 4 and 5 at Roosevelt fur- ther proves our interest and talent in music. The boys, quartet and the boysi glee club won first places, and the small chamber group and oboe 5010, Ralph Miller, placed second. In the State Music Contest held at Iowa City, May 2 and 3, the boys, glee club won first place. The boys, quartet includes Don Green, Warden Van Gundy, Lloyd Latham, and Billy Baldwin. 1 The boysi glee club is comprised , of the following students: Billy Bald- win, Woodrow Diehl, Don Green, Page Sixty-m'x Philip Jester, Carl Johnson, Paul Kennedy, Paul Milligan, Ray Nelson, Ralph Pierce, Ralph Davis, Bob Deu- nis, Gerald Latham, Lloyd Latham, Eugene Lundberg, Mark Moon, Bob Peterson, Russell Proudfit, Gregory Secor, Harold Snyder, Dick Thomp- son, Warden Van Gundy, Felix Vig- gers, George Winterbottom, Herbert Winterbottom, Dale Woods. Those making up the small cham- ber group are: Pat Kelsey, Dick Simpson, Helen Shaw, Frederick Johnson, Julian Lutz, Don Green. Mr. Harold Tallman, head of the music department, directed the Stu- dents and prepared them for both of these contests. East High Musicians Enter- tained Wilson 9Ais Twelve East High students enter- tained the 9Ais at Woodrow Wilson, March 27, with a musical program. T hese twelve were: Julian Lutz, Don Green, Carl Johnson, Lloyd Latham, Billy Baldwin, Eloise Hodges, Ardis Olson, Lowell Ebersole, Ralph Hall, Kenneth Young, James Caldwell, and Ralph Miller. Three Boys Tour With Drake Band Three East High boys accompanied the Drake band on its annual tour through Iowa.

Evelyn Teander, one of Prof. Stoye5s pupils, then played the theme of the East High School song. From this, Prof. Stoye improvised a Classical selection in a number of moods. Page 5i.1'ty-.mvmt M Te , W? New Books in Our Library for Social Committees Do you want games for your home room and club parties? Are you going to speak atia banquet program? Do you want to have special poems and stories for holidays? Why d01ft you visit our own library then? Many new books have been placed on the shelves of our East High library re- cently, and there are many which will help you if you are looking for an- swers to these questions. Among the new books of games are two very good ones, uThe Boys, Book of Amusementsll and Boys and Girls Book of Indoor Games? both by A. Frederick Collins. The first gives a large number of suggestions from many fields of recreation, such as devices, experiments, games, puzzles, stunts and tricks,-amuse- ments that can be indulged in With little expense. Although the name implies that the book is only for boys, it is also adapted to girls. The second b60k tells of games of chance and skill. llPlanning Your Party by Emily Rose Burt, suggesting original and usable ideas for parties and socials, tells of complete plans for seventy separate parties and includes over 300 stunts and games. llChristmas in Legend and Storyll by Elva S. Smith and Alice 1. Hazel- tine has many good stories for re- telling and selections for reading aloud. These have literary merit, are reverent in spirit, and suitable for young people. The book also has splendid pictures from paintings of the best artists. Highdays and Holidays by Flor- ence Adams and Elizabeth McCarrick is lilled entirely with selected poems for special occasions. Good Stories for Great Holidays, by Frances Jenkins Olcott is espe- cially arranged for story-telling and Page Sixty-eight reading aloud. There are 120 stories for 17 holidayswgrave stories, gay ones, humorous or fanciful stories, some spiritual in feeling, and some cabalistic, giving that delicious thrill of horror so craved by boys and girls at Halloween time. For the toastmasters and other after-dinner speakers there are two new books, llToasterls Handbook by Peggy Edmund and Harold Williams, and lCMore Toasts by Marion Dix Mosher. The first one, besides giving many carefully classilied toasts, has two articles valuable to persons une accustomed to giving banquet speeches, On the Possession of a Sense of Humor and Toasters, Toastmasters, and Toasts. ?And All the Men and W0; men Merely Players,, Miss Woodman might well think that l2111 the worldls a stagefl for room 311 is almost filled with model stages made as semester projects by the Public Speaking II classes. All the stages follow the general plan of a real theatre, but each is worked out in detail as the individual student wished. Many of these will appear in the senior exhibits, and the others will be exhibited during the spring. V F our Girls Prepare for Life Work Four girls, Mary Vincent, Opal German, Hazel Vincent, and Marjorie Nichols, are doing a fine bit of train- ing for their life work as gym teach- ers. All this semester these girls have been taking turns teaching a physical education class here in East High. Miss Spencer, of course, supervises them, but their work is done quite independently of her. The girls criti- cize each otherls work and also re- ceive helpful criticism from Miss Spencer.

Our I nheritance IEDITOR,S NOTE: Since the Quill aims to record all events which are significant in the growth and progress of East High, it is fitting that Our Inheritancef the his- tory and traditions of East High, be printed here as a permanent record. Such a history, compiled and written by the stu- dents, is naturally a matter of great in- terest and importance not only to the stu- dents now enrolled in East High but also to those who will come later.1 Memory, like the ivy, clings to olden times and ways and things? Though life be busy with the com- mon place, one cannot help thinking of those past events which have wrapped East High in a cloak of tradition, led her in the way of pro- gressive athletics, and housed her in as beautiful a building as may he found in all Iowa. This successful institution was founded in 1868 at the Bryant Build- ing on the corner of East Grand and Pennsylvania avenues. The first graduating class, consisting. of one member, Miss Elizabeth Matthews, was graduated in 1871. Since, with the increase in the population of the city, the greater number Of students made more space necessary, the high school was moved to the third Hoot 0f the Webster Building. This oce curred in the fall of 1877. Then the school progressed quietly until again the increased enrollment made a larger building imperative. Old East High on the corner of East Twelfth Street and Court avenue was com- pleted in the year 1891 to meet this demand. The cornerstone of our present building was laid January 18, 1911, by Miss May Goodrell, who was principal of East High at that time. It is of interest that in the year 1928 at the anniversary assembly Miss Goodrell presented to the school a rare gift, the trowel which was used in laying this cornerstone. As a reward to the students for circulating a petition to secure bonds for equip- ment for the new building, permis- sion was granted them, at the request of Miss G'oodrell, to move into the building in the spring of 1912. The pupils agreed to move all furnishings from old East High without cost to the district, for the new building had no equipment-not even a chair. Hence, on May 17, 1912, the entire student body turned out with ve- hicles of every description to move the furnishings from old East High. They formed a parade and marched to the new building, led by the G. A. R. Drum Corps of Kinsman Post: No. 7. This parade could have had no better leaders than this loyal drum corps who were for many years closely associated with the life of East High. This moving commenced at seven oiclock, and by ten oicloclc of that day the students were reciting lessons in the new building. To celebrate the event an anniver- sary assembly is held each year on the Friday nearest May 174 At this time the students rededicate theme selves t0 the ideals of Rash High by repeating the pledge which was first made by students at the cledicatory exercises on February 13, 1913. iAt Page Sixty-nine WW the threshold of this door of new and wider experiences and opportunities, let us pledge the future to a democ- racy of equal opportunity and a de- mocracy of culture that tits for higher thinking and nobler living, In this spirit, and with a realization of our opportunity, we, the students of East High, dedicate this building, and the efforts of our lives For the Service of Humanity? The first sentence of this pledge was taken from W. O. Riddellis ad- dress at the laying of the cornerstone in 1911. The motto, iiFor the Service of Humanity, was submitted by Charles A. Cumming in response to a reward offered for the most appro- priate motto. He, however, did not claim the reward. To describe the present school building is- not here our purpose, but it: is significant to note that all the entrances of East High are patterned after old Classic models. The front entrance is patterned after the north portico 0f the Erechtheum; the north- east door is taken from the Choragie Monument to Lysicrates; the north- west from the Tower of the Winds ; the southwest from the Parthenon; the southeast from the Temple of Neptune, Paestum; and the east from the Temple to Hephaestus. The Sims plicity of the classic style of the en- tire building has been a great factor in making all students feel that there can be no school more beautiful than their own East High. To J. A. NICe Kinney, president of the school board at that time, the greatest credit is due for the style and harmony of the building. East High also boasts a bit of one of the greatest of our modern seats of learning. The ivy, planted by the senior class at the front of the build- ing on the third anniversary assem- bly, was sent from the historic town of Cambridge by Vincent Starzinger, Puyc Seventy ..- then a student of Harvard Univer- sity. Among the long list of friends of East High who helped to bring about the erection of the present building and who were interested in creating a school spirit worthy of the motto F or the Service of Humanity, no name links itself more closely than that of Miss May Goodrell. She was graduated from East High in 1877. She served her Alma Mater as a teacher from the years 1888 to 1901; as principal from 1901 to 1918; and as president of the Alumni Associa- tion from 1918 to the present time. To her, East High will always owe a lasting;r debt of gratitude. It was at an early date that East High students became interested in athletics. Until 1893 baseball was the principal sport, but the advent of football and track in 1894 spelled the doom of baseball. In 1895 a city athletic association was formed, and the hrst city high school track meet was held in which the four high schools, East. West, North, and Capi- tal Park participated. The trophy, a silver cup, went to East High, who won it again the next two years and. in consequence, was allowed to keep it. It may now be seen in the trophy case, the hi'st trophy! At this time football teams were uncommon, and few knew the rudi- ments of the game. One student, Burdair Hattung, had been left the football with which the students of 87 had played Rugby. He learned the game of football and taught it to some of his schoolmates, who organ- ized a team but were unable to secure many games. In 1894 Miss Millicent Cuplin, a teacher of mathematics in East High, was successful in having football adopted as a school sport, and the htst team under the auspices of the school was formed. Will Chase was made captain, and Bur- dair Hartung, .the manager. 'VVith a promising football team, colors were desirable, and a committee from the East High Athletic Association, then newly formed, selected Red and Black. The team played Drakels second team, C. C. C. College, Simp- son, Crescents, Des. Moines College, and North High in that year, losing only the Simpson game. The team was self-supporting and was only partly reimbursed by the gate re- ceipts. As football games sometimes ended in a. free-for-all it was evident that there was a need for the develop- ing of a higher type of sportsman- ship. In 1904 Sidney A. Foster of- efered the Foster trophy to the high school in Des Moines winning the city championship three years in suc- cession and at the same conducting itself in an irreproachable manner toward its adversaries. In 1910 this trophy, an American flag, came to East High, and it may now be seen in the trophy case. The Garver tro- phy, a full-sized silver football, was won at the same time. In 1914, realizing that athletic teams work under great handicaps without the proper training ground, the alumni, through the school board, secured the lease for the present athletic field. The school furnished the means for grading and tiling it. The student body under the direction of Coach Van Liew cleared it; Clark Beard, a graduate and an engineer, donated his services in making the necessary drafts. The school dedi- cated the field with a large bonhre and speeches, and christened it Alum- ' ni Field in appreciation of the sup- port and help of the Alumni. It then expressed a wish that- George Garton, Fred Van Liew, Clark Beard, and J. A. McKinney should always have free admission to the field, because of their untiring efforts in securing it. Although foot- ball has long been out: Of the favorite sports, one will see if one examines the trophy case that East High stu- dents have also won laurels in other athletic endeavors: track, basketball, golf, and swimming. No reference to athletic contests is complete without the mention of the spirited singing and cheering by the students and alumni on all such occasions. Two of the favorite yells in 1893 and 1894 were: Ricka-Chicka-Boom! . RickaeChicka-Boom ! Ricka-Chicka-Ricka-Chicka Boom! Boom! Boom! Whoop La Re! Whoop La. Ray East Des Moines High School I. O. A. ' Rah! Rah! Rah! She is Best! Maximal Maximal E. H. S. The school song was written by Velda -VVi1bern in the year 1920. Dear East High, you are the school for me. You will always win the victory. Red and Black to you well be true, And we will bring great honors to you. Hip-hooray, hereTs to the Black and Red, O,er the world your fame is widely spread. Onward we will do or die, For Dear East High! The Student Council and the sen- ior class, in the fall of 1921, asked the students to cooperate in design- ing and adopting a standard school pin. From the large number of de- signs submitted, that of Eugene Gray was chosen by the vote of the student body. It was considered especially Page Seventy-ane WW fitting since3he used asi-a motif the oak leaf in recognition of the admira- tion that East High students have for the native oaks On their campus. In memory of the boys who val- iantly fought for their country. two bronze tablets have been placed in the front entrance, The Liberty bonds purchased by the students dur- ing the war. and the donations given by the alumni made this memorial possible. Here are found the names of those who fought in the World W ar and the Spanish American War. A star indicates those who lost their lives in the service. As a further me- morial to each boy who lost his life in the! VVorld.Wa1-, East High stu- dents planted on the campus a tree, a living tribute to his memory. Each year on. Memorial Day the students hold an assembly in which they do reverence to those who have paid the supreme sacrifice for their country. The student publication, the Quill, was started in the spring of 1905, un- der the direction of Miss Mary Es- ' telle Patterson, two numbers being issued during the last part of the year. The next year the infant paper was put on its feet, and by the year following, it had become a regular monthly magazine, with an issue each month of the school year except Sep- tember. In September, 1917, in order to decrease expenses during the W orld War, the magazine was changed to a quarterly, and a bi- weekly newspaper of pretentious size called the Quillette was published in addition. The Quillette lived but a year, and the magazine has since 1'6.- inained a quarterly. It aims to record all events which are significant in the growth and progress of East High and to publish all worthy literary efforts of the school. The name The Quilli, was suggested by Miss Frances Church, teacher of chem- istry. ,Those who know East High most Page iSL'venty-two 7 - r f ' :w--I-og......... km intimately realize that the spirit of the school is its most precious posses- sion. One student organization, above all others, which has bent its elliorts toward maintaining this spirit is the Student Council. It was organ- ized in April, 1919, at the suggestion of A. J. Burton, principal of East High since 1918, in order to bring about greater opportunity for student participation in the management of school activities. That enthusiastic spirit of cool'ieration and self-reliance which characterizes East High, whether on the field or in the class- room, is an inheritance bequeathed it by the alumni. Through decade upon decade it may be traced, class after class has handed it down untarnished. and all those glorious deeds which have distinguished East High are but the product of the infiuence of that spirit. East High Graduates During the many years of East High's history, hfty-six senior classes, totaling 5.904 oupils, have been graduated from the school. Way back in 1871 the First class. which was made up of but one senior, was graduated. Four years later, in 1875, another class of four pupils left the school. Since that time there has been at least one graduating class and recently two or three graduating classes each year. The practice of having both a January and a June graduating class was inaugurated in 1891. In 1919 the first August sum- mer school class was graduated. Since 1871 the number of seniors in the graduating classes has in- creased each year. The June class of 1930, which has 100 students more than the preceding January Class, the largest mid-year group ever grad- uated, has 277 members.

I Mme Mem bcr Marie Malmanger Wilbur Hamborg Anne Martin Blanche Waterman Virginia West THE LOCKOUT - 66Ye Pirate Bohr, l W henever anyone utters the word, Hpirate,U all within hearing distance immediately form a mental picture of this romantic figure. Many who lack imagination believe that the pi- rate was a mere thief who robbed only for the money which he seized. There are many with active imagina- tions, however, who picture the pirate as a daring fellow who followed his life of plunder because of the adven- ture and excitement which the pic- turesque life of the sea alone offered. Howard Pyle, well known author, seems to hold a different view, for in his Pirate Book he writes of his pirate hero, llIt is not because of his life of adventure and daring that I admire this as one of my favorite heroes; nor is it because of blowing winds nor the ocean nor balmy islands which he knew so well; nor is it because of gold he spent nor treas- Ln'e he hid. He was a man who knew his own mind and what he wanted? Now the seniors are embarking on the dangerous cruise of life. In the struggle in which they will engage in the near future, may each one live up to Howard Pylels characterization of his hero: He Was a man who knew his own mind and what he wantetfl lNew Method Inaugurated Each High has again taken the initiative in establishing a new sys- tem in the school which; it is' hoped, will prove useful and practical to many students. This system, by which students selected from various classes make a tour of the home rooms and deliver short matter-of- fact speeches concerning the various subjects now oltered in the school, is being carried out this semester merely as an experiment. It the sys- tem proves as beneficial as it should be, for nothing has more inHuence on the minds of the student body than the sincere and unbiased opin; ions of fellow students, it will, in all. probability, he continued next year. Although it has been taken for granted that students have a definite idea concerning their high school pro- ' grams and that they know precisely what subjects they will take and why they should take them, it is often sur- prising how little they do know about the curriculum. It is a ycommon oc- currence to find pupils who do not have the slightest idea why they elect certain subjects or why they should be taking some other. It would eer-. tainly be unfortunate if such students were allowed to go through high school without a Clear conception of the subjects offered and the advan- tages to be received from including them in their course. This new sys- tem is being inaugurated to help such students, but the leaders of the move- ment also hope that the speeches given by the representatives will give the whole'student body a better idea of the commercial and cultural value of the farious subjects offered. Page 5202 uIy-17w ME? The Evils pfja Modern Pirate Undoubtedly the logical home for pirates is on board a ship, but some- how or other, we often find them out of their place; A favorite haunt for certain pirates is the soul of a high school student. Of course, they are not often recognized as such, but the evil they do is very similar to that done by buccaneers. Usually they go under assumed names, the most fa mom of which are Procrastination, Carelessness, Laziness, and Dishon- esty. , . . The most cunning and yet deaden- ing of. these pirates, Mr. Procrastina- tion, is small physically, but huge mentally. Every time a duty pre- sents itself to the student, a wee little voice somewhere down in his soul whispers, llYou can do that tomor- row. There isnit any hurry.U This voice belongs to none other than Mr. Procrastinating Pirate, who, sad to say. is very often stronger than the person's will-power. The well known proverb. Never put off until to- morrow what you can do today, means nothing to him. Mr. Carelessness is so different in appearance from this fellow-pirate that he hardly 5665an to belong to the same class. He is a slouchy, sloven- 1y acting gentleman tit he can be called a gentlemany. who seems to have not a care in the world. It is he who leads astray a studentis hand when he is writing a test, and who causes queer wrong things to he writ ten 0n the paper. He influences the student to such a degree that he doesnt care 110w many ink blots are on his English theme, or how care- lessly his books are thrown around on top of his locker or in the .COI'ITie dor. Pirate Carelessness has never heard of the maxim, llA stitch in time saves nine? Page chcnly-six' As soon as his two fellow-pirates ave accomplished their quota of evil, fat Mr. Laziness has a simple task. He simply entices the student with thoughts of how much pleas- anter it is to sit under a shade tree all day than to study lessons. Soon th's becomes a habit difficult to break. According to this old pirate, it is bet- ter to fiit along without exerting onels brain at all than to grasp the knowl- edge s0 plainly visible in our books. Usually, we find that this pirate exerts more strength in finding an alibi for his laziness than what would he required to fulflll his obligations. Last, but no less important. comes Mr. Dishonesty, who causes the most irreparable harm. When a student is taking a test, this evil conspirator di- rects the studentis eyes toward his classmates paper. With his aid, it is very easy for the student to cheat. This mischief does not result in a happy ending. In fact, if the un- lucky student is caught, he must pay the piper. Now the problem before every stuh dent is: How to banish these wicked pirates from his soul. The only solu- tion thus far discovered is to enter into school life so earnestly and so enthusiastically that even four ruth- less pirates cannot tempt him into easy-going, careless, shiftless, clis- honest habits. C hoosing a Career ? Are you having difficulty in decid- ing on your career? Are you uncer- tain of your course after graduation? There are many of East High stuv dents in this predicament. To remedy this, a course in voca- tions would be extremely beneficial if added to the curriculum. It would be a decided advantage to study the occupations of the work-a-day world and in this fashion determine your own niche in it.

Quill Staff Learns Its F ate Audible sighs of anticipation could be heard on every hand; all eyes in the room had a far-aWay, speculative 100k; somewhere could be heard the tinny tunes of a mechanical piano; it was the noon hour at the ttGypsy Tea Room and the QUILT? staff were imbibing a little nourishment. But what was the reason for these manifestations of supreme satisfac- tion, these racking sighs, these far- away dreamy looks? Strange to say, this display of emotion was caused by a few tea leaves in a teapot. Now the Gypsy Tea Roomb is located upon one of the bustling downtown streets along with numer- ous other eating houses, but it disa tinguishes itself from the rest by the fact that it is tenanted by one of those strange creatures that are prone to dabble in witchcraft. With Wheedling tones and cabalistic mo- tions she had induced the impressed staff to display the tea leaves repos- ing quietly at the bottom of the cups. Over these she made various impres- sive passes and motions and finally in deep sepulchral tones of forebod- ing made known that which her in- vocations had revealed. For every girl there was the in- evitable iitall dark many while one fair journalist was even promised three! Many catty remarks and en- vious glances were fcast her way. Most of the boys futures were as black as the proverbial thunder cloud. For many moments the dread monotones dispensed these choice morsels of knowledge, leaving some in a state of glad anticipation or dark uncertainty aceording to their degree of belief in the iiblack artsf, But youth is youth and is not long impressed. With the help of the soothing properties of exotic Eastern incense and the more delectable Odor of ham and eggs, the witclfs sonor- ous mutterings and mystic incanta- tions' were soon forgOtten, and for the next half hour the musical tinkle of the tableware made a commend; able ,eltoert to harmonize with the raucous thumpings 0f the mechanical piano. : ' Miss Macy Exhibits at Iowa Art Guild Miss Macy, our art teacher, brought honor upon East High at an exhibition held in March at the City Library; She displayed five paint- ings: Hillside? and HPottery Mar- ketf, both of which she painted at Cuernavaca, Mexico; Waveland Parkf, Apple Blossomsf and itOld Dutch Housefi The painting of nVVaveland Park now hangs in Miss Helmreiclfs office where its lovely brilliant colors spread cheer and sun- shine. - ' - Pdgc S'svmxly-sc'vcn M r. Burton, Our Musician On the much thumbed pages of musty volumes twritten by some long-forgotten chronicleri or even on the comparatively new sheets of a WVhois Who? it can be found that those persons who have risen from the llherd to respected and coveted positions have, at some period of their lives, worshipped at the shrine of the Muses. The delight in music, literature, and the other arts is pets haps one of the factors that help draw the line between culture and boorishness. ' We are very proud to say that there are very few high schools in Iowa that have a principal as versa- tile as ours at East, especially along the musical line. Mr. Burton first began to pick out the difficult prin- ciples of music on the violin at the very immature age of seven, and his early training, together with his coms plete mastery of the ftindarnentals of music, made it comparatively easy for him to acquire the ability to learn other instruments. In later years, at his home in Westfield, Indiana, Mr. Burton took active part in the church choirs and later taught music. He is intimately acquainted with the clari- net and cello, and in his own words, can ilplay some, on the piano. He has played in Chicago and Rock Island, and has also taught music and directed bands in these places. Undoubtedly Mr. Burton has thoroughly learned the Rvalue of notesh and realizes they could, if it were desired, be easily turned into quarters and halves, for he has been instrumental in introducing his three children into the mysteries of the staff. Eugene, who played the violin in the East High orchestra, is now teacher of violin at Newton, Iowa. Eleanor, who took part in many music activities in East High, is now a graduate of Drake and an accompanist on the piano. Martha Alice, who while in East High won Pagc Scz'mty-cigh! first place in the violin cello solo at the state music contest held at Iowa City May, 1928, is now a sophomore at Drake where she is a member of the Drake Trio and Drake Symphony orchestra. The three compose the Burton Trio, wh'ch is held in high esteem by local music lovers. Like all real classical lovers, Mr. Burton is not in sympathy with our modern syncopation and disapproves of it for the reason that it has too much of the element of llnoise and dumb Show. Notwithstanding his aversion to liJazz, Mr. Burton, like the broad-minded person he really is, tolerates it on all occasions upon which this type of music is appro- priate. Mr. Burton attributes his past and present success to good music and hard work for, as he says, ltit has undoubtedly kept me from the corner drug store and the question- able characters that usually infest these places. M r. Robinson Takes Part in ciPygmalionT Mr. F rancis Robinson, our Land- scaping teacher, took the part of Alfred Doolittle in George Bernard Shawis play, Pygmalion, which was given at the Belle Kendall Memorial Community Play House during March. It has been said that thepart which Mr. Robinson so capably played is one of the most difhcult in the production. East High Inventor 'Bert Gilbert, prominent East High student and athlete, has recently com- pleted a very singular vehicle known as a Klskierfl It is fashioned along the lines of an aeroplane and mounted on thin steel runners.

The reasons are-Miss Searl and her job department. This very helpful department procures em- . ployment for a vast number of job- ' less East High students, benefiting them. perhaps. more than many days of hard work upon Math 01' an equal number of days upon the study of Chaucer. These jobs range all the way from slinging a mop in some large office building to polishing shoes at one of the many shining establishments. Contrary to the numerous rumors to the effect that employment is scarce in this city, Miss Searl always has many good positions at hand; in fact, she often is forced to scurry into the highways and byways of East High and call loudly, even beseech, unin- terested students to fill these posi- tions.

Answer: Y our mother is right, and until you are a little older, I would not advise it. After all, the first 100 years are the hardest, as Shakespeare rightly remarked. Perhaps a couple of hours of making taffy or popcorn would be all right, for one of your tender years, if the young man has been investigated and found mildly enjoyable. Dear Miss Payne: W hat shall I do? The young man whom I wish to impress, treats me in a very'motherly manner. What shall I do? This attitude agitates me very much. This attitude is even worse than a brotherly manner. Corey Apple. Answer: Treat him neither as a mother or brother but smother him. Dear Miss Payne: What shall I do?

How can I regain his love? Lotta Baloney. Answer: My poor abused child, the very idea of a mere man attempting to enact such a dreadfully demoralizing demeanor. Do not try to regain his love.

A Nose for News East High Club Holds Initiatimfi or liEast High Seniors Elect Offie cersh often appears as a headline in any one of the Des Moines papers. Do you realize, as you eagerly scan the days news, how East High pub- licity is promoted, how your name or your friends: names get into print? Believe it 01' not, the Quill staff is the organization responsible for this pulr licity. One of the most important jobs, in fact, is the collecting and the tiwriting 111? of the news of the school. The news writing is carried on by a competitive basis, a prize being offered to the staff member who has the most articles published; During the present semester, up to the time this goes to press, the Quill staff has succeeded in having 498 column inches of news published in the three Des Moines papers, the itRegisterf the ITribune? and the n'Plain Talk. i This total represents about 280 articles averaging 120 words each. The aggregate amounts to more than 8,400 words. GDABBIN9 THE LODT East Wins Indoor Track Title A well-balanced track team from .East High gave proof to anxious fans who were dubious 0f the teamis prose pects by winning the City indoor track meet held Friday evening, April 11, in the Drake heldhouse. N orth High captured a well earned second place by counting heavily in the field events, winning first place in ' the pole vault, high jump and second in the shotput. Roosevelt trailed North by seven points, making most of their points in the individual events. The two-mile relay was by far the best event on the program, East and Roosevelt finishing first and second, respectively. Two judges gave the race to East, and two thought it was a dead beat, so the referee awarded the decision to the Red and Black. The final standings were East 39w, North 31, Roosevelt 24, and Lincoln 15 g. East Wins Oskaloosa Meet With every man 011 the team per- forming in good style, the East High track team won a notable victory in the Annual Oskaloosa Invitation Meet, Saturday, April 19. East counted heavily in every department, particularly in the relays, in which they placed five times. The Red and Black won the mile relay, took second in the two-mile relay, third in the half-mile, second in the 440, and second in the sprint medley. Holmes of East took second in the mile run, and Brill and Rook took second and third respectively in the IZO-high hurdles. The boys who ran on the re- lay teams were: Bert Gilbert, Garnet Daley, D011 Green, George Holmes, T om Thompson, Alfred F look, Harry Hayes, Francis OiConnell, and Clar- ence Stevens. Swimmers Receive M anagrams Eleven erstwhile merinen stalked upon the stage Friday, April 23, and received from the hands of our di- minutive swimming coach, iiScottyii Russell, some beautiful red and black monograms which were presented to them as a reward for their hard work in the pool. This season sees the graduation of several stars, including Hale Brown, Henry Jerome, Edward Killin, and Russell Johnson. The team will be very much weakened by their leaving, and every prospective swim- mer should go out next year in order to rebuild the team to its usual high standard. . The eleven paddlers who received their letters are as follows: two rings eHem-y Jerome, Hale Brown, Ed- ward Killin, and Russell Johnson; one ringeMartin Kimber, Judson Crawford, D011 Ellis, John Saroka, George Cosson, Clifford Morgan, and Tom Chrisman.

The pre- sentations were made at an athletic assembly on Friday, April 23. Only two letter-men will be missing when the next season starts, and East High should be represented by a strong quintet. Ralph Davis and Arthur Krasinski, both elongated centers, will be graduated with the June class.

Perverse weather conditions greatly handi- capped early practice, and for that reason it will probably take a longer time for the team to get into good shape. Several of last yearls stars are running true to form and many vic- tories should be gained in the spring meets. The eight boys who are in line to represent the Red and Black are as follows: Alfred Mohler, George Cilva, George .Schane, Richard Frisk, Ralph Miller, Bob Patterson, Louis Rosenstein, and Morris Steinway.

F ootball Prospects Encouraging As the track season draWs to a close, the minds of East High stu- dents turn to that eternal question, llWhat' kind of a team are we going to have next fall? One almost always thinks of those who are leav- ing, but he seldom stops to realize the amount and quality of the re- mainder of last yearls squad and the possibilities of the incoming sopho- more class. - t. A large part of last fallis squad will he with us, and the prospects for a capable team are unusually bright. Those who will form the nucleus of our- football team are Harry Hayes, Versil Deskin, Lyle'Rickabaugh, Bob Page Eiyhty-four . r.- x e-smm h .I x Rooks, John Hartung, Thor Berg- strom, and Marion Strait. These boys will be able to give the stiffest sort of opposition to rival schools, and as we look farther ahead the chances of winning the city cham- pionship seem very hopeful. . East has compiled a schedule for this year which includes most of the outstanding teams in the state. Dav- enport, always a strong contender for the state title, has been placed on the schedule, and Iowa City, an old rival, has been dropped. It is very probable that several night games will be played this year, and if last seasonls game with North High has any significance, the city and the stu- dent body will turn out in large numbers for these twilight contests.

Perhaps their repre- sentative knew, but, like the wise young man he is, he kept it secret from his classmates. Home Economics When one of the meetings of the Home Economics club promised to be unusually interesting and important, this organization generously invited all the East High girls to attend. A11 expectations were fulfilled, for Miss McKinley, representative of the Utica, talked to the girls on Styles. She stressed the fact that the pastel shades are the most fashionable this spring. Butter yellow, bright green, and blue are also to be good colors. Dresses are to be worn below the knees, but the formal gown can be of any length. Suits in the lighter shades are very good and can be worn any time during the day. Following her speech was a show- ing of suits, formals, afternoon, gingham frocks, shoes, and lingerie. The models were Ruth Young, Anna Moorin, Marjorie Cotton, Mary OTIara, Mary McElwain, Madeline Steele, Cora Racek, Irene Sheets, and Velda McFadden. Cap and Dagger-Purple M ask With a thrill of anticipation after so many weeks of waiting, the mem- ' bers of the Cap and Dagger met in room 311, Thursday, April 17, to en- joy what the boys club had prepared for them. As the Purple Mask is unhampered by the presence of: any girls, it was necessary to manufacture one for the presentation of their part of the proe gram. Accordingly, Robert Dennis changed his name to Mary, and squeaked through his part of iiThe Clod admirably. The audience roared with laughter at the scene por- trayed. F irst the wounded N orthern soldier, Howard Porter, slunk into the kitchen, after Mary and her hus- band Thaddeus, Gilbert Bolton, had gone to bed. Then he hid in a cubby hole while the Southern sergeant, Richard McGahan, and his Southern soldier, Delmar Moon, cross-ques- tioned the man and wife. After they had left the room, the soldier pleaded with Mary, softened her heart, and then retired to let Mary kill the two Southerners. After the boys had retired with Iaurels, the girls entertained them with a presentation of hFor Distin- guished Service. Laurel Shaffer, as Eleanor Burton, persuaded Margaret Plummer, who was Mrs. Jim Hard- ing, into taking better care of her husband. She artfully accomplished this end with the aid of Mary, her maid, Dorothy Connely, and a box of caramel chocolates.

Euclidean Perhaps the' student body, as a whole, thinks that the members of the Euclidean Club spend their whole time measuring and figuring, but this idea can be easily remedied if one would attend some of their meetings.

What the Home Rooms H ave Done The value of the Home Rooms has never been so evident as in this past year. One can readily apprectate the importance of these organizations by glancing over their list of successful campaigns and projects. The Ex- travaganza, two school plays, the paper drive, track meet, and home room talks on the curriculum were 2111 sponsored by the Home Rooms. Home Room 1 1 0 Home room 110 has, perhaps, more notable people in it than any other room in East High, for it has the president and treasurer of the senior class, to say nothing of the fact that the Honorable Henry Judgeh Jerome, Alfred hProfessort, Helm, Howard Doctor Porter, and George TTSenatort, Podrebarac reside in the Churchfied atmosphere of 110. However, these austere titles did not prevent them from helping win the intramural track meet from their rivals 205 and 104. El Circulo Espanol The Spanish Club has been keep- ing a scrap book of all the newspaper clippings that are in any way con- nected with Spain or Spanish cus- toms. The members answer the roll call by giving some current events 011 Spanish subjects. In order to increase their knowl- edge and use of the Spanish lan- guage, their business meetings are carried on in the foreign tongue. The programs also treat OfISpauish cus- toms, costumes, and ideals.

In fact. the students of that home room have originated the following motto: VHome Room 118 proclaim to East High. That we're ready to work; were ready to try. W eyre going to win in this contest of Brains. W'e donft care a bit if it takes all our painsfi Upon the strength of this motto Home Room 118 issued the following challenge : We, the students of Home Room 118, in order to form a more perfect scholarship, establish good records, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the future contest and promote fame for East High, do ordain and establish this challenge for the good of East High. . - Home Rooms 213, 302, and 205 have accepted this challenge, and the winner will be determined by the grades received during the grade pe- riod March 17 t0 Apri124.

Girl Reserves T 'A series of triangles marked on the Sidewalk led the Girl Reserves t0 the street car which took them to Greenwood Park for a treasure hunt, April 25. Here another trail ended in the much coveted treasure. Having accomplished their pur- pose, the girls continued to entertain themselves by picking flowers. Then the entertainment became educational while the treasure seekers went to seek heavenly bodies through the Drake Fieldhouse telescope. The Girl Reserves, in addition to being funeliving, education-pursuing girls, are TTEver dependably and Ready for servicef as was shown on May 4, when they entertained the youngsters at the Cllildrelfs Home.

DVD ' .---' Pay; Onc Hundred Twelve Over the Ice Cream Soda Friends, we are in the midst of a flood of senior pictures-va delugee a siege! but a pleasant one, on the whole. They seem odd, these pic- tured expressions. The most incor- rigible of students is portrayed as a Sistine Madonna; an angelic face looks like Mona Lisa; a handsome boy resembles Lon Chaney in his worst role; and some sweet young things appear as Venus after a tough day at the tubs. In spite of all these unusually un- fortunate results in photography, we exchange our pictures proudly. Its an old Spanish custom without which a senior does not.feel senior-ish. Do you know that when you are entering Mr. Lyma1fs science room, you are taking your life between your palms? You are. This is a timely warning, I hope. In case you have ventured in, I hope you have not been affectionately greeted by the Class pet. In this case, the teachers pet is hardly human, tthey seldom arey. But this one isn,t really. Sheis a snake,-a bullsnake, which makes it even worse. Her keepers assure you that she is per- fectly harmless and of a sweet un- affected, loving nature, quite un- spoiled by social successes. I wonder how her tea manners are? I imagine she bows, and balances a tea-cup in quite the approved manner. At any rate her scientilic friends insist she is one of the most cherubic snakes they have ever had. They cannot understand why you shrink when The absurdity in not loving little Hortense seems immense to her fond guardians. they drape her over your arm. N ow that the paper drive is over we can all heave a sigh and breathe a prayer. After all our scurrying around to assemble the bundles and other debris like proverbial busy bees, we found that the pile in our home room, of which we were so proud, was worth approximately 17 V4c when weighed. And it seemed so-o-oao COLOS- SAL! Come to think of it, our paper heap is like a cone of cotton candy. You think you are getting a' lot for your lucre, and when you get a mouthful, it dissolves into three small pink grains of sugar. Though I am taking a purely aca- demic course, I was struck by a de- sire, the other day, to peep into a shorthand notebook kept by one of my business-like LU girl friends. The contents noted were as follows: 14 telephone numbers. 1 drawing of home room teacher. 1 drawing of girlls head. 3 notes to girl next to her in study hall. 2 addresses. 6 memos to touch DacPs purse. 4 recipes. 23 drawings of desired new dresses. 2 choruses of popular song hits.
