The staff hopes that you get as much joy and happiness out of it as We put into it. Every minute of time put into it is charged with our love for Manual and with our gratitude for being able to do something for the old school. 3 THE CRIMSON 4 THE CRIMSON Bvhiratiun IT IS WITH THE GREATEST HAPPINESS THAT WE, THECMSOFHBQQ, DEDICATE THIS SENIOR ISSUE OF THE Crimson To OUR BELOVED FRIEND, TEACHER AND COACH RAY BAER. 5 TI-IE CRIMSON MY FIRST IMPRESSION OF MANUAL There is no stain upon thy name, Manual, fair Manual. S time for graduation rolls around, I recall vividly my first impression of Manual. I was about I4 years old at the time, and a non-resident of Louisville. In fact, we lived about 250 miles from Louisville, in the western part of the State. We had been visiting some friends near Louis- ville, so we all came to spend the day in the uBig Cityn. In driving around, we happened to pass Manual. We turned down Oak and I got a glimpse of the machine shop through the windows. The high school in my home town had no shops. Indeed, the academic subjects were few. The large buildings and vine-covered walls filled me with awe. I had always wanted to attend a school with shops, but now I had a desire to attend a particular school-Manual. Little did I dream that some day that desire would be ful- filled. But then it happened. Dad was transferred from the Resettlement Administration to the Internal Revenue Depart- ment, and we were to move to Louisville. At last my dream would come true. No longer would my desire be a far-off dream, but a reality. I have been at Manual two and a half years now, and time draws near for me to leave and seek knowledge elsewhere. Close in my memory always will be cherished the thoughts of Manual and the inspiration I received from her principal and corps of efficient teachers.

Yes, Raymond, one of those scientific birds, is like an ostrichg hc tries to hide his head. However, this bird uses neither sand nor soil, but a book.

When seeking the right answer or information, avoid delayg ask Kehrtg you will soon be on your way. WILLIAM ENOCH KINGSTON Glee Club, '36. Inter-Class Track Meet, '38.

Inter-Class Track Meet, '38. Senior Crimson Stall Paul is one person who will give you his opinion: yes, and how! He says Manual will beat Male in seven of the next ten football games. We hope he will be right as usual. OWEN GILBERT LINDE This boy has proved to be an invaluable source of witty remarks in Mr. Davis's English class. He has an answer for everything, even if its truth is unquestionable. We are sure that his ready wit will carry him farther than all his hook larnin'. IRVIN LINKER J. V. Football, '36M2. Varsity Football, '37V2, '38V2. Spanish Club, Treasurer, '37, '372Q. Inter-Class Track Meet, '38. Senior Crimson Staff. Irvin is the best salesman and gossiper in the Senior class.

Clayton is one of the few boys who took an active part in the Barn Dance. He proved to be an excellent musician the night of the dance. He shore kin play almost any musical instrument. CHARLES C.

We predict that he will crash Hollywood some day. HERSCHEL L. METCALF Empty vessels make the most sound! Herschel's head is certainly not empty. He never rants and roars, nor does he giggle and snortg but when a teacher wants to know the correct answer after a dozen boys have failed to give it, he turns unfailingly to unfailing Herschel-for Herschel always knows. OSCAR CARL NATTERMAN Football, '36VZg M, '37lQg Captain, '38M3. History Club, '36V2. '37, '37M,, '38. M Club, '37V2, '38g Vice-President, '381fg. Senior Crimson Staff.

Keep up the good work, old man. ROBERT LOUIS PAYNE Hi.Y, '361A3. Tumbling Team, '36w, '371fgg Captain, '38. Camera Club, Treasurer, '38. Camera Club, 38115. This twinkling-eyed specimen is one of those carefree, nonchalant rascals, who do not care whether school keeps or not. Yvhy should he? A shrug of the shoulders given with the proper air and a merry flash of teeth will get a man by better than knowledge of Latin and Greek. EARL WILLIAM PETTER Term Honor Roll, '38. National Honor Society, 3815. Earl is a great fisherman. His catches and his stories are so unusual and surprising that we're almost suspicious of prevarication. We've found that he can put these stories of his on paper as well as he can relate them by tongue. JOSEPH P. PIKE History Club, '38V2. This fellow is always smiling, even at school.

For all of you, the termination of senior high school will close forever a set of experiences that you never will forget. The privilege of being a high school pupil will be but a memory. The secondary school with its many opportunities no longer will be open to you. An everchanging world of stern reality will provide a set of experiences to make up the next chapter of your lives. A world on the march, with a new civilization in the making, beckons to you. No one seems to know where the world is going, but it is on its way. Many believe that the quest of man for a fuller and better life is introducing certain entangle- ments, revolts, revolutions, persecutions, and deep disillusion- ments that confuse all of us. Whether you like it or not, this is the setting. And your life in such a world surely will not be easy. duPont Manual has tried to provide some preparation for the realities that you soon will meet. It has helped you to acquire and perfect some of the tools of civilization-reading, writing, speaking, thinking, etc. It has instructed you in the use of these tools for the appreciation and improvement of the technological age in which we live. It has brought to your attention some of the requirements for intelligent citizenship and leadership in a democratic society. The sacredness of personal development and individual initiative have been held before you. With these, you must be ready. lVIay success crown all your efforts. lVlay you go forward with renewed assurance from day to day. May you continue to develop yourself as a person and to take your place as an important individual in the scheme of things. lVlay your phil- osophy be steadfast. MTO thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man. 37 THE CRIMSON THE DEAN'S MESSAGE TO THE SENIOR CLASS OU have come to the close of your senior high school career and are about to enter into the activities and per- plexities of the work-a-day world or to continue your formal education in the college of your choice. At this criti- cal point between the closing of one important chapter of your life and the opening of another, in order to proceed intelli- gently, it is advisable to stop a moment for serious self-ap- praisal and a sincere reafhrmation of one's ideals. The dean proposes the following questions for your con- sideration. Think over them and try to arrive at an honest answer. How much have you learned at duPont Manual? What is your philosophy of lifeg is it better or worse for hav- ing attended this school? What new habits, good or bad, have shown up? What changes in manners, of companions, of am- bitions, of heroes, of Curiosities and aversions? What changes have taken place in the use of your leisure time? What is your reaction to honest work? Are you more reliable, trust- worthy? Is your integrity impeccable? Do you think with your God-given intellect or do you allow your prejudices and emotions to color your decisions? Have you developed the scientific attitude toward arriving at a purely impersonal ob- jective conclusion? You have gone through the public schools of Louisville only to get the tools with which to make an education, the scales on which to weigh it, the package in which to wrap it. The tools will rust, the scales will break down, and the pack- age will go half empty and leaking, unless the educative pro- cess is carried on every moment of your life. The above sug- gested self-appraisal will aid appreciably in carrying out this educative process to its full fruition. The dean wishes for each of you in the graduating class success and happiness as you embark on the high adventure of active participation in twentieth century life in America with its fabulous promise for progress and achievement in human affairs the world over. -John E.

From where I sat on the pile of debris, I could see nothing but sorrow and fear on the tear-stained faces surrounding my own pitiful figure. A few moments ago, during the merciless bombing, there had been excitement and terror, but it soon died away to be replaced by melancholy and anguish. Grim-faced men were stupidly gazing at their desolate state of affairs. Wailing mothers ran hither and yon in herding up their dear ones. Some were making a hapless search, for underneath the piles of stone and earth lay the objects of their search. At intervals there would come a scream of horror as a mother would find her child, either crushed by fallen obstacles or blown to bits by an exploding bomb. There was no doubt that the sharp eyes of the bombing expedition were becoming improved because of their repeated practice. Across the bundles of clothing I saw a middle-aged mother, clasping a dead babe in her arms. There were no tears in her eyes, but I knew she was going through agony. The shock was so stunning to her that she had not yet understood what had happened to her loved one. Little deserted babies were crying at the top of their lungs for their mothers to feed them, but I steeled myself when I thought where those absent mothers might be. A few yards to my left lay an old man. His stomach had a hole in it as large as my fist. His face was warped with pain. I knew from his staring eyes that in a few minutes, when the shock would leave him, there would be screams of agony to further the distress of the desolate creatures. It was a mournful mob. Their clothes were torn and burned to shreds. From wounds gushed blood. Some of it had already dried on the clothes, making them stiff and hard. Army oliicers arrived and were taking charge. They were as cruel and brutal as the enemy had been. They began to shove and push the crowd around, adding to the consternation and ill-ease of the poor groups. The famished people stumbled around in a dazed fashion. Their weak legs would not hold out and they would fall over in a heap. They obstructed the path of others and because 11-0 THE CRIMSON the others were too weak and distracted to bother about them, they were trod upon as stepping stones. The stunned mob grew less inactive and matters were left to take their course. The stench of sweat, blood, and dirty bodies became more repulsive to my nostrils and I had a sensation of wanting to vomit. The dusk began to fall and the mutilated began to squirm about in hopes of finding a more comfortable position for the ensuing night of horror that would bring new prob- lems. I sank into a stupor from which I was aroused only by the more piercing screams. THE CROWD By JOHN MARTIN, 12A STOOD by the entrance of the subway and watched the crowds of people that were hurrying and worrying through the cold, evening air. There were people of all shapes and sizes, types and kinds. Some were tall, some were short, some seemed happy, and some sad, but most of the crowd simply looked as though they were cold and in a great hurry. They were interested only in their destination, whatever it might be, and their bodies were simply machines driving their minds through the icy air. lVIost of them noticed nothing else about them, except for a casual glance, but simply plodded along with their heads down and their eyes full of tears from the cold. The sun had long set and there was that peculiar light, just before night, that casts no shadows. All the world seemed to be painted in gray paint. The figures moving through the street seemed to be gray ghosts that were half lost in swirls of snow that fell from the lead-colored sky. Here and there one attracted my attention more than the others. One of these was an old man with a face like a saint, snow-white hair, and a decided look like a churchman. 'GA deacon in a church,', I said to myself. But just as the old man passed me, he winked at a young and very pretty girl who was passing. A wink and a very clever smile he passed at the young lady and seemed somewhat hurt when she did not respond. I almost laughed out loud, this man was certainly no saint. 41 THE CRIMSON And there were others passing crowding the old man from sight. One of these was a thin, undersized newsboy with a hollow cough, and cheeks that even Jack Frost could not put color into. Directly opposite the newsboy came a business man filled with importance and superior judgment, with a bulging briefcase. It seemed a bit unfair that some of the excess color in the business man's plump cheeks could not be put into the hollow ones of the newsboy. The shadows had now almost completely darkened the street. In many places lights were springing to life and shin- ing through the snow. I stood thinking until a sudden biting wind came howling down the street, sending a shower of snow into my face. Then I turned and walked into the coldness and darkness of the on- coming night. HOME AGAIN By EARL PETTER, 12A TANDING in the dusty roadway, I could see a large rambling, rustic, old farm house. To most people the house was not different from thousands of others scat- tered throughout the country, but to me it was a castle dear. Every detail was clearly printed in my mind. I ran my eye over every object, from the long, broken-down front porch to the small potted ferns in the front yard. Nothing was changed. There were the same loose bricks in the foundation in the porch. A few more of the boards were rotten and broken. The old swing was slightly more warped than it previously had been. The porch light was still broken, as it always was. The steps near the end of the porch were practically torn away, but who cared? They had never been used anyway. I stepped off the roadway and under a large shady oak so as to get a better view. I tried to gaze through the window in an attempt to see someone, but it was useless, for the win- dows were too dirty to see through. I should have known better anyway because no one would be in the front of the house for it was only used when we had visitors. I raised my pleasure-filled eyes slowly to the upper windows, but still 1142 T H E C R I lVI S O N there was no one in sight. I could see the old wooden shutters that were still hanging in some miraculous manner. I decided to slip around to the rear of the house and sur- prise everyone. As I stepped through the old gate, I saw Mom on the small side porch. It was so full of odds and ends that it seemed impossible for anyone to get on it, but there was Mon, busily churning. Off the porch was the kitchen, and from within I could hear peals of laughter. The young ones must be large enough to Wash dishes now, I mused. And down the walk that led from the porch to the pump house was Sis, carrying two pails of water to pour over the milk. I could hold out no longer: ulVIoml'? I shouted. LOVE AND NICODEMUS By JoHN MARTIN, 12A ICODEIVIUS Thomas Edison Jones was head over heels in love. There was no doubt about it. Cupid had finally shot Nicodemus in his black chest and left his arrows sticking out where anyone could see them. Every time Nicodernus passed that high, yaller gal's house, his heart seemed to be trying to jump up in the empty space in his black, woolly skull. At least most of the niggers said it was empty, but Nicodemus had enough brains to ap- preciate real beauty in his women. The high yaller gal's name was Susie and there wasn't a better looking nigger in all the town. . But Nicodemus was not the only one who could appreciate beauty. Hannibal Harris, the big roustabout, was also an admirer of beauty and particularly Susie's beauty. N icodemus was small, bony, flat-footed, with a face like a grief-stricken baboon. Hannibal was two inches over six feet, with broad shoulders and a huge chest. Hannibal was the Hashiest, fightin'est, best and loudest dressed man in town. When Hannibal came down the street with his new yellow suit with the green checks, his purple derby and his wonderful smile, like tombstones in a cave, it was no wonder Susie rolled her eyes and smiled. Nicodemus knew in his heart he had no chance against Hannibal, but he was not the one to give up without a fight, 4-3 THE CRIMSON that is, a fight in the abstract, not in the concrete sense. Nicodemus decided to go see old Mammy Hawkins, who was a conjure woman and knew everything. Perhaps lVlammy Hawkins could give him a love charm that would make Susie roll her eyes at him instead of Hannibal. At seven o'clock that evening Nicodemus knocked at the conjure woman's little hut. A surprisingly powerful voice told him to come in. Nicodemus opened the door and stepped in. Old lVIammy Hawkins grinned at him and said uBefo' you says anything I knows what you came forf, uHow come you knows?,' said Nicodemus. uAin,t I seen you trying to look unconcerned walking past Susie's house?,' said lVIammy. Hlieckon I knows the signs. I reckon you wants a love charm. 4'That's right, said Nicodemus, Hand I wants the most powerfulest, most magical love conjure you can makef, Old Mammy laughed and said, MHow much cash you got? I got plenty,', said N icodemus. Hand it over and I'll give you the finest love hoodoo you ever saw, said the conjure woman. Nicodemus placed the money in the old sorceress' hand. She promptly bit it, spit on it, and put it in her stocking. uNow, Nicodemusf' she said, MYou take one of your old socks, an old one with a good perfume to it. Write your name and Susieis name on it and say three times, 'Susie is gonna fall in love with me, in love with me., Then you burn the sock, take the ashes, put ,em in a silk bag and go to Susie's house and hang it on Susie's bed. In the morning shelll get up loving you like mad. Nicodemus thanked her and left. He felt he could do all she said except the most important thing. That was the enter- ing of Susie,s house and hanging the charm on her bed. Nicodemus' bony knees knocked together at the very thought of sneaking into anyone's house, much less Susie,s. That night, however, found a very jittery young colored man hiding in the backyard of Susie's house waiting for her and Hannibal to leave. At last they left and Nicodemus saw his chance. A few minutes found him in the house. It took 44 THE CRIMSON g but a few more seconds to find Susie,s room and go in. It was very dark. Nicodemus barked one of his shins on a rocker. It made a loud pop. Nicodemus' heart began to beat almost as badly as when he saw Susie, but it was not from love this time. He felt around for her bed, found it, and tied the conjure to it. What was that! Footsteps! Hannibal and Susie were coming back, they must have forgotten something. HO, Lawd, have mercy, said Nicodemus and tried to dive under the bed. Now the bed was very low over the floor and N ico- demus butted his black skull hard against it. He saw stars but managed to crawl under just as the door opened. Hanni- bal's voice, sounding like the voice of doom itself, said HDid you hear that noise? 6'What noise? said Susie. I heard a noise, said Hannibal. At this information Nicodemus began to tremble from head to heel. His normal color got several shades lighter and he felt a sudden, horrible desire to sneeze. HWhat ails that bed, shaking so?'7 said Hannibal sus- piciously. Nicodemus, in spite of all his efforts to stop it, was shaking so hard that the bed shook too. MThere's a nigger in the woodpile somewhere, said Susie. HNot in the woodpile but under the bed, roared Hanni- bal, and with a dive he pulled out by the neck that unfortunate lover, Nicodemus. MSO it's you, you sooty-faced hound dogf, thundered Han- nibal, nl'm going to beat all the black out of your skin? With that Hannibal began swinging. The sun was very bright and the world very beautiful the next morning, but since Nicodemus could see only fairly well out of one eye, he was not prepared to enjoy it. However Nicodemus had one thing to be thankful for. His heart no longer troubled him, Hannibal's beating had not only knocked his teeth out but also cupids arrows. Nicodemus was no longer in love. He thought, as he felt his sore and swollen face, that there was nothing to love and even less to super- st1t1on. 45 THE CRIMSON DEEP DOWN By ALBERT BoLL1Ns, 12A N the warm shallow waters of the Gulf of lVIeXico I made my first descent in a diving suit. I was lowered into the water and let down until I touched bottom. The ghostly beauty of the sand and sea weeds thrilled but frightened me. I could see a barnacle-covered hulk of a small fishing smack that had probably been sunk by the huge waves that roll over the Gulf. The debris of the smack was in fairly good con- dition and it revealed to me that the boat had been red. The pure white sand, being different from the rest of the bottom, made it possible for me to see any object one hundred yards away. Losing interest in the ship I turned around only to be struck by a school of bright colored fish. They would swim up to the glass head plate and gape at me with wondering eyes. After the fish had satisfied their curiosity I was con- tented to marvel at Neptune's flowers, the sea weeds. As the current would flow the different varieties of weed would swing and sway as if they were performing a dance for me. A huge fish that swam in jerks reminded me of the jitterbugs that crowd our dance halls. Having satisfied my want for sub- marine beauty, I ascended. THE CARELESS DRIVER By JOHN MARTIN, 12A ILL had been arrested several times for his reckless and foolish driving. He had been made to go to traffic school and it had a good effect on him. However, when Bill got into any sort of car his common sense seemed to get out. Bill was driving along now enjoying himself, which meant he was going as fast as possible. He knew the car was old and needed overhauling, why the very steering wheel in his hand was only weakly fastened. '4What good is a strong motorf' Bill thought, wif you canlt let it show its strength?', Bill smiled in satisfaction as he pressed the accelerator further down. He laughed at some old fogey who yelled, 46 THE CRIMSON g 'eLook out, you crazy nut,', as he Went swerving past him, barely missing a collision. Bill laughed again as he saw a sign ahead. What did he care for sharp curves? The laugh suddenly died out as the car hit a rut in the road, there was a sharp snap and Bill screamed as the steering Wheel came olir in his hand. The front of a huge, interstate freight truck suddenly appeared in front of the uncontrollable car. There was a terrible crash. When the men from the truck finally pulled Bill's body out of the shattered car, they shook their heads sadly. Bill would never laugh or even smile again. A SEAMAN'S YEARNING HEART By WM. M. CRABB, 11B Deep down inside of me There's a longing forthe sea. For the ebb-tide, Wind, salty spray, The smell of Wharves, the whale's Way, The masts, the ropes, the sails, The thrill of old sea myths and tales, The girls, the wines of every port, King and nobles with their court, The ports of hell, the harbors of heaven, Which bound the seas that number seven. For the starlit skies, the White-capped waves, The rising sun's red rays, The Strait of Gibraltar, the coast of Maine, The lsle of Crete, the Spanish Main, The call of larboard or starboard, stern or bow, The water of the seas again to plow. Midst this stone and brick I Weary, lonely and land sick. The seas call me, the Winds, and the tide, Once again the Waves to ride. I'm going hack soon to spread the sails, To tie the tides by their tails. 47 THE CRIMSON IUST STEAMBOATING By GEO. STOLL, 12A OMB here now, Sugarfoot, lean out over the guard and whistle. lVIake it long and soundin' like she was far away. In this fog, -- -- 7' Sugarfoot cupped his hands over his mouth, and the sound that came forth, sounded more like a steamboat's whistle than the real whistle. No one knew just how he did this, nor could he explain if he had wanted to. But he could reproduce the sound of any whistle on the river and make it so real that it fooled even the old timers. Up in the pilot house, Big Bill Stevens, pilot, strained his ears. Mwvhy, that was the Golden Eagle? whistle. What's she doing here? She's supposed to be in Pittsburg tonight. Why, I,ve got to make a landing in her spot. There she is again, and she is getting closer. In this fog I can't see a thing. The search light beam just stops in a bank of fog. But that whistle-77. uBet weave got him going, Sugarfootf' Pop exclaimed. HNOW whistle closer, like WC71'6 going to hit. Bells jangled in the engine room. HStop 'er quickln came a loud voice from the speaking tube. Pop complied. The big stern wheel stopped and started turning backwards. HThere's that whistle again, Bill muttered. 'awish to heck the Eagle would make up her mind what she's going to do. First, she,s far away and then she's up close enough to touch. Bill walked over the side of the pilot wheel, stepped on the whistle pedal and gave a fog blast. uBetter let the Eagle know where we are. Then suddenly the whistle sounded right up close, as if the Eaglefs bow would come out of the fog any minute and run into the Dorothy Anne. Bigg threw the wheel to the starboard and rang full speed astern. The Dorothy Anne kept right on ahead. Bill cussed. Where was that engineer? Why didn,t he answer signals? Bill blew a warning blast on the whistle,- .I angled the backing bell,-rang the gong,-cussed down the speaking tube. Where was the engineer?! L'Pop, you-you -stop this boat! The Golden Eagle's whistle sounded again +148 THE CRIMSON very close-a long blast. Bill expected to see her come out of the fog, but then the whistle broke off into the high-pitched laughter of a negro. Then Pop started laughing. Bill could hear them down on the main deck. 6'Well I,ll be-There ain't no Eagle! That was Sugarfoot and his imitations. Will I fix Pop! He put him up to this. Will-I-Hx-Pop-I I ln CASEY'S KID By JOHN C. MCCARTY, 12A T was as if his fairy Godmother had tapped him over the head with a stilson wrench when big Bill, the house fore- man, told Mike Casey to report to work as fireman on Number 1047 in the morning. The great shock was that Mike was going to work under his own father, Dave Casey. Dave had Worked for the D. P. Railroad Company for thirty-five years. He was known as one of the most reliable men on the line. He was now the engineer on D. P.'s big, new, stream- lined limited between New York City and St. Louis and on his first run he had averaged 87.3 m. p. h. Dave was rather proud to have his son as fireman, but he was not the type of man to let it be known. He would do any- thing for that boy when he was off duty, but as his fireman he was just that. Things went along smoothly through the summer and the limited was boosting business because of its national fame. Mike was Well on his way towards being an engineer. One night the week before Christmas Dave and Mike climbed up into the cab of 1047 in preparation for the usual run. A cold Wave had gripped the entire country and there was much snow on the ground. This was the worst weather even Dave had seen, much less Mike. They pulled out of the terminal at St. Louis and as soon as they reached the limits of East St. Louis were breezing along at a clip of sixty-five m. p. h. The snow wasn't so bad here, but kept getting thicker and deeper along the way. However, most of the tracks had been kept clean by the snow engine. When they were near the Ohio line, they were stopped at a remote station near the Western border of the State and told 49 THE CRIMSON that they would have to lay over a couple of hours while the snow engine cleared a series of drifts along about sixty miles of road. Dave realized that unless that train got in on time that his and the company's record would be marred. As they waited there in the station Mike could tell that his father's pa- tience was wearing off very quickly. They finally got the go- ahead signal after about an hour and a half. Dave literally leaped into the cab and gave Mike orders to put on the coal. In about an hour they had made up al- most fifteen minutes of the lost time. ,lust sixty miles out of Cleveland there was a stretch which sloped down the side of a hill into a horseshoe turn. This was extremely dangerous ordinarily, but ever more so when the tracks were slippery as they were then. When they got to within about five miles of this spot he told Mike to heave on more coal. Mike knew what they were coming to and said: 'alie- member the curve, Dad. I think we had better slow downf' HYou,re my fireman now! Take orders and put on more coal. Mike knew that his dad was probably doing what he thought was right. When they hit the stretch down the hill, they were doing sixty. Mike looked at his father. His face was set in an expressionless dead look. His eyes were peering into the gloom ahead. His hand was on the throttle and not the brake. They came to the curve going faster and faster from the momentum of going down the hill. There was a sud- den crash. The screeching of iron wheels against twisted tracks, the shrieking of frantic women in the rear, the scrap- ing of boiler plate against cinders and at last the deadly hiss- ing of the steam as if Death stood there hissing at life after claiming another victim. When Mike's eyes finally opened he was surrounded by four white walls, several doctors and nurses and his mother standing at his side with tears streaming down her cheeks. Having asked what happened although he could piece the evi- dences together in his own mind, his mother told him that his father had died from burns and that he was very badly burned himself. However, none of the passengers were seriously in- jured. 50 T H E C R I M S O N Three months later, fully recovered, Mike returned to work. In the meantime 1047 had been repaired and looked as if she was just out of the shops. Big Bill told him that he had been elected by the advisory board of the railroad to re- place his father in the engineer's seat. After about a month as engineer on 1047 Mike had only averaged 55.7 m. p. h. on his run from Cleveland to St. Louis. The advisory board wondered if they had made a mistake in this appointment. Also Big Bill was wondering if he should have made that recommendation to the board. Everytime Mike came to that memorable stretch he would slow down to about 35 m. p. h. He got so that he would slow up for every little curve and hill. Big Bill told him one night as he was checking in that he would either have to speed up or go back to stoking. He sulked home that night and at the supper table his mother was able to see that something was wrong. She asked, 4'What,s the matter, son?', Following much denial and ques- tioning he gave up and told her everything, and also that he was ready to quit railroading, that he couldn,t go on. His mother replied to this shortly but stabbingly, '6Your Dad wouldn,t have or wouldn't have wanted you to give up like that. Those words hurt Mike more than if she had slapped him. He decided that he would try one more week. At the termination of about three days of no improvement ,lim was called to the ofiice ofthe President. He took his time getting there, well knowing what would probably happen. As he walked in Mr. Baily said, HSit down Mike, l,ve something important to talk to you aboutf, Mike sat down heavily with his head hung in shame. uMike, your record for the past month or so hasn,t been the least bit impressive. However, I'm willing to let bygones be bygones and give you another chancefi Jim started to tell him that he didn't think he could make it, but he remembered what his mother had said and replied, mllhanks, Mr. Bailyf, 'There is a certain remedy for a disease that is sweeping through the hospitals of Cleveland. These vials are here in St. Louis and must be gotten there as quickly as possible? 51 THE CRIMSON H1'll do my best, was Jim's reply Mike mounted the cab much as his father had on that fatal night after waiting for the snow to be cleared away. He streaked out over the rails, through villages, countryside, and town seemingly faster than the traditional ugreased light- ning. He was determined to conquer his fear on this trip. The train had a clear track all the way and didn't lose much time. He finally reached the ucurven. His hand instinctively reached for the brake cord. He suddenly remembered his father. He grabbed the throttle. His face was set exactly as his father's was that night. Beads of sweat stood out on his head. There was no crash this time. Only a seeming bullet miraculously following the trail of the steel rail as if held there by some great magnet. That set hand didn't reach for that brake which almost caused its owner,s downfall until he pulled into the station at Cleveland. The serum had arrived in time. One of the regular passengers of the line, upon alighting from the train, asked the conductor who the engineer was that performed this feat. The conductor said, HOh, him! why thatis Casey's kid. The man understood everything from that simple answer. 1865-1932-A PERIOD OF CORRUPTION By RAYMOND SIMS, 12A URING the time, 1865 to 1932, there was much corrup- tion in our government. The notorious William lVl. f'aBoss,,Q Tweed of Tammany Hall, with a group of rascally associates, got control of the government of New York City in 1869, and from the graft on outrageous contracts for street paving, municipal buildings, and for other public works, robbed the taxpayers of sums estimated at from 350,000,000 to 2HS200,000,000 before he ended his career in the Ludlow Street jail, in 1878. In the spring of 1873 an investigation of the building of the Union Pacific Railroad revealed a sickening scandal. A construction syndicate called the Credit Mobilier, composed of directors of the road and even members of Congress, was 52 THE CRIMSON found to have voted itself large contracts, and distributed stock free of charge to senators and representatives to prevent interference with its nefarious transactions. Then came the exposure of the 64Whiskey Ring , with headquarters in St. Louis, which was defrauding the govern- ment of 3S100,000 a year in collusion with the collector of internal revenue. Little is known of the Mulligan letters, a series of letters written by James G. Blaine to a business associate, Warren Fisher. It Was alleged that these letters proved Blaine's share in some corrupt railroad transactions. The letters were pre- sented to a congressional committee by J as. Mulligan, a clerk in the employ of Fisher. Blaine obtained possession of the papers, and in a dramatic defense before the House of Repre- sentatives, ,lune 5, 1876, read parts of them. He defied the committee to compell him to give them up. The suspicion engendered by the incident was used effectively against him in the campaigns of 1876 and 1884. Several unpleasant incidents took place in Harding's regime, the most scandalous being the Teapot Dome Oil Scan- dal. After his retirement from the cabinet, Secretary of the Interior Fall was indicted for leasing to the Sinclair and Doheny interests valuable naval oil reserve lands at Teapot Dome, Wyoming, and Elk Hill, California, which he had had transferred to his jurisdiction from the Navy Department. When it was discovered that Secretary Fall had accepted opportune loans of money from Doheny and Sinclair, the popular suspicion of his guilt became strong. He and Doheny were tried at Washington on charges of conspiracy and bribing in December, 1926, and acquitted on technical grounds, though the country at large was by no means convinced of the innocence of the defendants. Perhaps the most recent scandal was the lnsull utilities collapse. Samuel lnsull, public utilities operator, had made a fortune in the supplying of electricity for Chicago. Finan- cial difiiculties in 1932 brought about the ruin of his fortunes, and he fled to Greece to escape prosecution for alleged mis- management. He was returned to the U. S. in 1934 for trial, and was acquitted. 53 THE CRIMSON 25 YEARS AGO fTaken from the Senior Editionj ATHLETICS HE hard-fighting Manual cagers lost the first game of the season to Lexington, 43-21.

Beat Malelwg the presenting of two new trophies: one, the old keg, to be played for every year on Thanksgiving-the other, a gold, actual size football, to be given to the school winning two out of three Thanksgiv- ing games, the presentation of a picture of Dean Bennett M. Brigman to the schoolg the presentation of 3550 worth of books to the school library, and other activities of the Club have all been duly performed and accomplished. The seniors graduating are: ,lohn Neely, vice presidentg Walter Bruning, corresponding secretary, and Charles Bickel.

Q lzato AP DELTA CHAPTER, HI-Y THE CRIMSON DELTA CHAPTER, HI-Y ELL, folks, this is the Hi-Y Club that you've heard so much about. We, the members of this club, have worked out many things this past year. Our activities have been divided into two parts: social and service projects. We have aided the school and our fellow classmates in every Way possible, having sponsored the Barn Dance and the UM Book. The dance was the first of its kind at Manual. HThe CM' Bookw Was a tough task which we felt was well worth our time. This Hi-Y sponsored by Mr. Hal Dudley has upheld Manual in all Hi-Y activities from beginning to end. In ath- letics we have rated high. Our programs at the Y. M. C. A. on Monday evenings are very interesting to any one, young or old. In these meetings we have endeavored to cover a wide variety of interests that are not often found in the best of clubs. This is one club that extends its invitation to all at all meetings. Joint us sometime, won't you? The platform of this club is clean speech, clean sports, and clean life. The purpose is to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian char- acter. We, the graduating seniors of Delta Hi-Y, say: NGO on, fellows of Delta, on to greater success in membership and life. -Christian H. Glanz, Secretary. Oli E CRIMS 64+ -E 'Q 2 v: -we -.

We accomplished many tasks that were beneficial to other as well as to ourselves. October 28th through November 7th, Chapin took charge of the Community Chest drive at Manual. WO1'k was done by different members, who Wrote papers on the subject, and made visits to many of the Community Chest Agencies. On November 10th, when NGO-to-Schooli' night was ob- served at Manual, Chapin members acted as guides to the visiting parents and friends. Much credit is due to Mr. Thomas, our faculty adviser, part to bring in members and to help the club out. who, in his first term with Chapin, has done more than his Each term there is a swimming meet among the various Hi-Y Clubs. This term Chapin succeeded in nosing out the Male High club by a three-point margin, to take first place. In the indoor hockey league Chapin placed third. A fighting water polo team was nosed out of first place to take second. For October we had a hayride which, under the able super- vision of our Social Chairman, was a big success. For De- cember a skiing party is planned. C -Edwin R. Cowherd, Secretary. 65 THE CRIMS 66 E VJ -be f.

The Club has three main purposes: flj to see that boys who are good athletes in junior high schools come to Manual and further develop themselves, to see that athletics at Manual are above the rest in the city, and Q31 to promote scholarship among the athletes and the rest of the school. The Club also takes charge of one assembly program once a year. If any person in the school knows of any likely athlete, he should let some member of the Club know of him so that the Club can investigate and try to get him to come to Manual. 67 THE CRIMSON 68 Q V..

S The December issue of the Crimson was published with success by the members of the Honor Society, who wish to express sincere appreciation to Mr. Davis for his untiring efforts to make the issue what it is, and to the entire student body for the way in which they received this particular Crimson. The semester just past has been a busy one for all the members. Among the many things which the Club accom- plished are publishing the December issue of the Crimson, publishing the term and monthly honor roll, and the holding of the annual father and son banquet, the purpose of which is to acquaint the parents with the Honor Society. As is customary, certificates were presented to all boys who were on the honor roll last term. Un class day an effort medal will be awarded to the graduate who has made the greatest effort during his senior year.

The club is interested in the A, B, C's of science, which are astronomy, biology and chemistry. Aside from scientific matters we also sponsor various social activities, such as joint observation parties with Atherton High. Our able faculty advisers are lVlr. Church, lVlr. Thorpe, and Mr. Vick.

Our director set certain specific times in early morning for us to report to the stadium for practice. The band responded very well to this and were gratified by the response they got from the student body at the games. We Worked especially hard to show up Male on Thanksgiving Day and l think all will agree with me in saying that we did. Our only concert during football season was at Barret Junior High School. There we were met by hearty cheers and handclapping. We also, as a band, attended a concert by the U. S. Marine Band in New Albany in November. We were privileged to play one piece with that band. We are now beginning work on numbers for the concert season. During this period we are scheduled to give concerts in several Junior High Schools, concerts to the student body, our annual Spring Concert, and, last and most important, the State Band and Orchestra Contest. All of the above mentioned activities are in preparation for this climax of the season. Our fondest hope is to come out on top this year. The required number for the contest is the first movement of uShubert,s,' Symphony in b fiat, or uThe Unfinished Symphonyw. At present We are giving some of our time for the basket- ball games. We have played and are scheduled to play at several of the home games. We are preparing quite a number of surprises for these events. The Seniors are especially sorry to leave the band this year because of ineligibility to participate in the State Con- test. We only participated in the one which took place right after our entrance into Manual. We have not gone otherwise because of the memorable Hood, and the next year the Na- tional Band Contest was held here. Officers for the preceding year were: John Burns ................... President Robert Richardson..Vice President John C. lVIcCarty .... Secretary George Stoll ......... Treasurer W-John C. McCarty, Secretary. 73 THE CRIMSON RIFLE CLUB The Rifle Club meets once a month in Mr. Clark's room in the shop building. We practice shooting every afternoon at the Armory in preparation for the Male-Manual match to be held sometime in December. The team will be chosen very soon and will consist of five men and two alternates. It will be a forty-shot course, ten shots in each of the following posi- tions: prone, sitting, kneeling and standing. The match will be held at the Armory and will be timed. The winner will re- ceive a trophy which you have probably seen in the hall. The school which wins it three times in succession gets to keep it. We have had quite a bit of action at our club meetings lately also. At the last meeting we elected to have emblems for all members of the club. Also emblems for all members of the team. We discussed the team and tried to get more members to try for it. As yet we could use a few more good shots. There are lots of advantages to this business of shoot- ing, such as being able to handle a gun safely and accurately. Another asset of the club is that you are taught the different pieces of a rifle and how each works. Rifle shooting also gives you a steady hand, a good eye, and steady nerves. And so, all boys who are interested in shooting in any way are cor- he walked in Mr. Baily said, MSit down, Mike, l've something dially invited to join this group. I also think all of you should know our Captain, Bill Isbell, who has really worked hard on this club and team. -Vernon Wetherby, IOB. CAMERA CLUB On Saturday, December tenth, some of the members of the Camera Club met at the New York Studios to study the use of lights in taking portraits. The models were girls from the Camera Club at Shawnee High School. We wish to thank Mr. Roberts for letting us use his lights and other equipment, and teaching us to use them correctly. Once a month we received lectures, illustrated with slides from the Eastman Kodak Company. These lectures have en- abled us to learn much about photography that we could not have learned without them. -Bill Courtenay, S ecretary. 74 THE cR1MsoN gg DEBATE CLUB Paul Givan ............,........A........................

A series of debates have already been arranged with various schools. The main purpose of this club is to create an interest in public speaking, teach its members parliamentary procedure, and develop good speakers. This club is not only educa- tional but also very interesting and entertaining, for every term social activities, other than speech events, take place. -August Zoeller, Secretary. THE GLEE CLUB This year the Glee Club is going to lose some very good boys by graduation, we hope! These boys are Henry Batts, Lawrence Porteriield, J oe Shelton, Joe Travis, and Robert Weiss. These fellows hate leaving the Glee Club as much as the other members hate to see them go. This term the club has made radioeasts, appearances for commercial clubs, for Parent-Teachers meetings, and for some junior high schools. Our quartet sang at the church of William Yates, a graduate of '37, in exchange for a turkey supper, and it has a possibility of several other performances. We have not been doing joint chorus work with L. G. H. S. this term as we did the last two terms for the simple reason that neither we nor they have had the time. But something of great importance to come is the Southern Vocal Convention to be held in Louisville in which Manual is planning to parti- cipate. So we urge all who can sing or think they can to be sure to sign up for the Glee Club next term. This can be sub- stituted for gym and amounts to one-half credit per term. -Lawrence Porterfield. 75 THE CRIMSON THE MANUAL MIRROR NE of the newer activities of Manual is the publication of the Manual Mirror. This weekly newspaper, which first appeared October 22, 1937, was conceived and founded by the Mitre Club. Mr. Morton Walker, faculty adviser of the Mitre Club, has corresponding duties on the Mirror. Under his able direction, the Mirror has prospered until today its appearance is looked forward to eagerly by the students. The staff of the Mirror is chosen from the journalism class and the Mitre Club. The staff this year is composed of seven boys: Editor-in-Chief ................................ Walter Bruning Managing Editor ......................,............. John Neely Sports Editors ...... Bob Hodapp and Rudd Campbell Associates .......... Bob Smith, Clarence Staub, and Bill Byrne THE CRIMSON ' OR four decades the Crimson has continued to be the mouthpiece of the student body of the duPont Manual ' Training High School. Its appearance is looked forward to monthly by hundreds of students and faculty members. .lust how many are interested is indicated by the circulation figures for October, which reached an all-time high of 808. Long ago in the Spectator Steele wrote that skill of the purse is the cardinal virtue of this life. If this is so, the Crimson is practised in this cardinal virtue. For nearly twenty years it has been eminently successful financially. Usually a few boys are responsible for this, but with their graduation others step forward ready to ncarry on . Now and then some boy is outstanding in his efforts to make the magazine 'ca going concernw. It would be quite unfitting for the class of l938w to graduate without mentioning in par- ticular the work of J ack Baines, who as a first year student was made business manager of the number published by the class of 1936w, and who has done exceptional work ever since as a member of the business staff, as business manager for two terms, as editor for one term, and who has won the position of business manager of this number against keen competition. 76 THE CRIMSON VV 'TI' YU-E T1 35 'sas Q53 ..' ,.

The Crimson charged forward to win the uTurkey Day encounter with its long and lasting rivals, the Male Bull- dogs. The final score was Crimsons 27, Bulldogs O, and so it seemed at the time the anvil heaters were champs over the Npencil pushersf' But not for long, the wearers of the Purple came through in ,37 and heat a fast Red team 25-20. Our spirits fell, and we were the under dogs for a year, until the armor-plated team of Captain Natterman came surging through with victories unsurpassed, while the lads of Brook and Breck dwindled at each approaching team. This season opened with the Crimson driving, slashing, hard-fighting eleven rampaging over Catlettshurg with a 44-O mark. On down through the game with the ferocious 'cBulldogs,' of New Albany, the unconquerahle Reds piled point upon point. Passing this team and that as though it were a mere scrub team, they took the hide off St. Xavier's HTigers,, to the taxidermist, and the drummed up game with Toledo High was a walk away. These games gave Manual a good workout while those players down the street seemed undecided whether to play against us or with us on Thanksgiving Day. Also it gave Sidebottom and Freeman a change to jack up their points even higher. Here are the scores of Manual and its opponents this year: Manual ............ 44 - O ............

The last four out of five teams have brought home a trophy in the city championship.

We won over a real team from K. M. I., and Henderson was beaten by quite a few points. Junior Jones captained the team that year. The 937 team, again captained by Junior Jones, finished with a clean slate. Brad Jones held his first contest, a quad- rangular meet with Newport, Covington and Highland I-Iighg then a meet with Fort Thomas, and a meet with Male. We ended the season by winning the State meet. In '38 many responded to the call of trackg seven letter men reported with much new talent for Mr. Jones. The sea- son was another of great success. Five meets were held and each time Manual emerged the victor. Bobby Scholtz cap- tained the team to win the State meet at Lexington. Under Coach Brad J ones, Manual has won nine out of fourteen tries. With a record such as that, the team should be congratulated. 81 E CRIMS A 82 -E 'B :s -. VJ 'if S W E ' as Z 'i rv Q Q Z x. E Q ll fP BASKETBALL SQUAD THE CRIMSON 7 BASKETBALL Manual's basketball star was apparently in the ascendancy in 1936, when Elmer Hoffman led his band of cagers to the second round at the State Tournament where they were de- feated by a small, but determined, band of warriors from Inez. 1937 saw co-captains Junior Jones and Eddie Taylor knock off some of the most highly-touted quints in the State. For the first time the Manual hoopsters defeated the Kentucky Frosh. ln a hard fought game played in our gym Manual won 21-20, and thus a great season was anticipated. But our boys were defeated by the strong St. Xavier team in the Regional Tournament and thus ended a season that had been expected to be one of Manual's greatest. The 1938 season opened without a captain but this diffi- culty was solved by the appointment of a captain before each game. The season was more or less disastrous judging by the final results shown in the win-lost column, twelve defeats being registered against our boys. The 1939 season found Manualis basketball destinies under the able guidance of Coach HI-lankv Stovall, who promised us a good season and the defeat of our rivals from Brook and Breck. - .T.. BASE BALL In the spring of 1936 the base ball season opened with Capt. Charlie Morris urging his players to their utmost, and they smashed through and plastered some ten of our twelve rivals into oblivion. But the hardest blow was losing to the Bulldogs of Male by a paltry score of 5-3, and to those fero- cious Tigers of St. X by a meager 3-2, after which the Reds surged through in fine style and played a close second for the State Championship. Then the brilliant young star, Ed Taylor, pivoted the Reds in ,37 and is at the present time playing pro-base ball. This team was composed of some of the best Manual athletes. The successful team of '38 was whipped into shape by our good ol, Charlie Roberts under the orders of Mr. Ralph Kimmel, the energetic, never-tiring coach of the great Ameri- can game at Manual. The team of '39 has not been selected. 83 THE CRIMS 84. Q -Q 'U : Q V2 -2 L. D in 3 N Z I SJ -a Q I b, Q 2, Photo M TRACK TEA THE CRIMS 85 Q -.. 'S : Q 50 2 L.

The game, which was played in the Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, was witnessed by 15,000 fans, 300 of whom were loyal supporters from Louisville and Kentucky. New Britain led in the early part of the game after Jimmy Dooman scored. Then Sidebottom tied the score by making a long run and Rudy Sengel brought Manual in the lead when he converted. ,loe Wade,s touchdown gave Manual a 13-6 lead and again Rudy Sengel made the extra point. Just before the half ended, Sidebottom scored again when Vernon Powell threw a left-handed pass on a play that carried the ball 37 yards. After receiving Sengells kick-off at the beginning of the second half, New Britain made a 61-yard march which ended with a touchdown by Frank Darnfeld. Before the third quar- ter was 7 minutes old, New Britain recovered a fumble made by Carl Althaus and again scored, which made the count: Manual, 215 New Britain, 20. During the latter part of the fourth quarter the entire New Britain team kept its eyes on Fred Hennies. On a pass play which started on the New Britain 29-yard line, Fred, after faking an end run, heaved to Sidebottom, who caught the ball and went over for a touch- down. John Richter converted, which brought the score to 28-20. No more scoring was made by either team during the few minutes remaining to play. Down in Baton Rouge the players were justly proud of their victory, for they had fought hard to win. Back in Louis- ville they learned everybody was proud of them, for they were greeted at the Union Station by a mammoth crowd beaming with pride and joy over their triumph. 87 THE CRIMSON CHAMPIONSHIP GAME STATISTICS New Manual Britain Manual Britain Total first downs ...,...... 11 Passes completed .,..., 6 6 First downs running.. 4- Passes intercepted by 4 2 First downs penalties 1 Number punts .,.......... 7 8 First downs passing .... 6 Punting average ,..,,,,, 39.1 39.7 Yards gained rush Punt returns ...,.,,,,,.,.. 8 7 ing ............................ 176 Yards punts returned 81 30 Yards lost rushing ...,.. 22 Kickoffs .....,,,,,,,,....,.,,.,. 5 4- Net gained rushing ,.,. 154 Yards kickoffs re- Yards gained passing..135 turned .........,,,,.......,, 249 181 Total yardage gained.,289 Penalties ........ ........ 3 5 4-9 Ball lost on downs ,..... 2 Fumbles .. ............ 3 2 Passes attempted .,.,....

That type of training is most valuable which best prepares the student to meet actual conditions of life. Un- less a young man today acquires a fundamental commercial education, business has no place for him. A statistician recently said, Eighty-five per cent of the men and women of this country make more use of business training than they do of any other type of education. Competent stenographers, secretaries, and accountants are always in demand: and good positions are Waiting for those who make sufficient preparation. Requirements are exacting, and success comes only to those who are qualified and Willing to work. For the man who is Willing to apply himself there is no safer investment than a thorough business education. It is a gilt- edge security against the unknown future. Ask for literature.
