The long summer's vacation, the voyage from grade to high school, had given each verdant eighth grader the opportunity to think and meditate on the new, unexplored land, to utilize the golden moments by playing with marbles, tops, and dolls for the last time, and to dream of adventures and achievements in the unknown land. During that long summer before entering high school our new venerable Seniors had heard old mariners tell many tales of the high school deep. Every time they had passed the awe-inspiring building of learning they had trembled as they thought of the ordeals to come. When the eventful day had iinally arrived, out- wardly bold, inwardly anything but calm, they had entered the massive structure. There, Where everyone but they, the new-comers, had been familiar with the va- rious routes of travel, and where Seniors, Juniors, and Sophomores alike had dis- covered old classmates with whom they had talked vivaciously, they had seemed strangely out of place. Although they had profited much by private instruction from the family graduates of East High, they felt like strangers in that well-known land of legends. THE CLASS' ACCOUNT OF ITSELF Freshmen are always fond of visiting new scenes and exploring hidden nooks and corners. The Freshman 'Class of 1918 was no exception. Mary Morrison spent an hour trying to find a stairway leading from second to third iioor. The iirst few days of our sojourn here found us wandering into Junior realms, entering, unbidden, Senior domains and even treading sacred Sophomore ground. How- ever, we must say our class was not free from follies. Anita Gray, who was so bashful that she walked with her head bent low, bumped into Seniors, and caused many corner collisions. John Bloem made a statement that he was hunting for a red-haired girl and consequently was overwhelmed with applicants. At iirst Hazel Booth, Edward Farley, and Minnie Boos could not locate their assigned assembly seats and were in a panic on assembly days, but with unusual alacrity they, and the rest of us, became so accustomed to the high school manners that we could pass muster with any upper class. Soon we began to hear rumors of a monstrous Senior-Freshman party. Be- decked in our best bibs and tuckers we, shy and timid, talkative no longer, went to the gym for an evening of we knew not what. So cordial was the Senior wel- come that before an hour had passed our tongues were wagging merrily. Ad- miringly, adoringly, with the utmost joy, we entered into the games the Seniors had planned for us. During the Liberty Loan assemblies our ability was recog- nized when Alice Miller and Maudie Swartz fluently and eloquently represented us as Two Minute Speakers. Armistice Day, a day not only remembered by us as the greatest day in our iirst year, but immortalized in the memory of the world, was celebrated by a day's Vacation and a huge parade in which we took part. Hubert Stenstrom said he collected more washtubs, tin pails, and tin cans to tie on his father's Ford than any other Freshman. We were the last Freshmen to enjoy the annual celebration of Anniversary Day with a picnic. Paul Little started his enviable athletic record by substituting in several important football games. Ruth Ann Spry, Bernice Gorcham, and Florence Selindh won Life-Saving 39 e ,.. ... .. . X ,,,..-1 5 - 'TS' Monograms. Then, too, we had the distinction of being Mr. Burton's first Fresh- man Class. Confidently, we began our Sophomore year. As Freshmen, membership in the many clubs had been denied us, but from the first of our second year many of our names appeared on club rolls. Ralph Stutsman was elected secretary of the Latin Club. Dramatic talent glowed forth, Alice Miller, Kathryn Brunk, and Pauline Woodmansee were members of the cast that staged The Merchant of Venice Up to Date. Our efforts were also successful in athletics. In the girls' track meet Louise Heise and Mildred Shoemaker starred for us. Arvid Mellin and Harold Edwards won laurels for us on the athletic Held. We enjoyed a prolonged vaca- tion because of the coal shortage, but our social activities were cut short, as we had to make up our lost time. Our Sophomore year was a quiet one, nevertheless, it was an important one. We developed a fondness for study and admirable quali- ties of leadership. So fully occupied were we in the first half of our Senior year that we scarcely had breathing time. In the community course play and the fall play the majority of the characters were realistically portrayed by Seniors. The fame of our actors and actresses will be a lasting one. The Time of His Life, our Senior Play, was one of the best plays ever staged at East High. Our extemporaneous speakers defeated West and North as gloriously as did our athletic teams. Our brilliant athletic record w.ll never be forgotten. Near the termination of our school journey many frolics relieved the strain on our Senior shoulders. During pleasant spring hours even Seniors forgot dignity. Joe Madsen and Kenneth Col- gan were the originators of many leap frog games. ln each Senior portfolio of East High reminiscences will be varied sketches. In some we will find only pictures of individual frolics and of big school playtimes, in others we will find picture after picture of exciting football games, of track events and of basketball, we will find sketches of favorite teachers and friends, of notable assemblies, of cafeteria scenes and, oh, myriad sketches of school life. Each Senior will prize his collection of memories more than any other, each will remember the golden hours by memories he holds sacred. If this little class his- tory helps you to add any sketches to your portfolio of memories, or renew any memory there, it will not have been written in vain. GRADUATION DAY Caps and gowns! They are a symbol of achievement won, four years of earnest effort, four years of foundation building, four years of mingled work and re- laxation. For a week before graduation the Seniors wear this symbol of achieve- ment, vain-glorious they walk through the halls followed by the admiring, envious eyes of the student body. They 'bid good-by to their favorite teachers, they walk and talk with some of their fellow classmates for the last time. Then comes the crowning day, graduation day, when each Senior is given a diploma, a crown of youth, energy, ambition, and learning, when each Senior sets out to find his unknown, unconquered kingdom. Just a matter of moments and the Seniors be-long to the memories of old East High. The gay, merry Seniors whose smiles brightened the corridors, the serious, studious Seniors who left scholastic records to be proud of, the strong, sturdy Seniors who lifted high East's fame on the athletic field will not return when old East High opens her motherly arms next fall. They will be sailing the high seas of life bringing added fame to East High, their Alma Mater. 40 Q A-MQW X ig s EASTMINSTER HALL On a cold, rainy spring day I walked to old East High to see Eastminster Hall. I paused on the moldering, mossy steps and looked around. For the Service of Humanity, above the doo1', though to a strange eye obscure, was to me as plain as on the day I had first se en it. The swollen, rotting doors, resisted my efforts for some time, but at last I managed to push one far enough to get inside. The entry way was in ruins, fallen stones nearly blocked the entrance to the Front Hall of Eastminster. How dark and somber it was! Great loops of cobwebs hung from the ceiling. No windows had been opened for many years, so the air was damp and musty. As soon as my eyes grew accustomed to the darkness I looked around me. The bulletin board held posters made many, many years ago. The coloring was faded and the printing blurred. I wandered north along that famous, though now silent corridor, to the tombs in the Poets' Corner. I shuddered as the clammy stones met my groping fingers and I brushed away the clinging moss from the inscrip- tions. Then I deciphered three names on the tombs there. Mildred Eck, Char- lotte Luka, and Ruth Ann Spry had made themselves famous and worthy of the recognition of Eastminster's Poets' Corner. From there I wandered across the hall to the Authors' Corner. Though there were many tombs I distinguished only the name of John Wasson. Faded flags and pennants toward the middle of the hall caught my eye. Here were the most magnificent tombs of all, the tombs of the Kings and Queens. Many leaders of the old East High had been buried there in Eastminster Hall. I bent over these tombs and read there: Marjorie Cottrell, Queen of Good Grades, Harold Edwards, Lloyd Allsup, Paul Little, and Leland Odcll, Kings of the Track, Goldie Silberman, Queen of Dramatic Art, Ellis Conkling, King of the Swimming Pool, Arvid Mellin, King of the Gridircng Dessa Winegar, Queen of the Typewriterg Karl Voldeng, King of the Cornetg Dorothy Love, Queen of the Violin, Kenneth Bonham, King of the Class, and the last two in the Kings, and Queens' Corner were those of Floyd Pickett and Clyde Norris, Extemporaneous Kings. With a little sigh I walked away. Two very beautiful monuments caught my eye in the Artists' Corner. They were fascinating! I stood for a long time following with my eyes the intricacies of their carvings. I read the names with no sense of shock, for the art work of Maudie Long and Helen Woods truly deserved such monuments as these. At the south end of that immortal front hall was the Knights' and Ladies' Cor- ner. Here was the resting place of some of the chivalrous who had won the respect and admiration of their associates. Orval Armstrong, Leroy Jones, and Virginia Van Liew were those I found there. I turned sorrowfully and left the building. As I was leaving the grounds I turned back and Old Glory from the top of the Iiagpole waved to me a last fare- well.

Other Senior Eyes Use their eyes? They surely do. Smilingly they dance and talk for us, Dang'rous business, though, it's true. There are eyes of 'brown and eyes of blue, Vi'let eyes and orbs of ev'ry hue. Steadfast eyes, those tender, kind, and true, Dreamy eyes, and wide-awake eyes, too. All the Senior eyes are line it's true, Though I've only written of a few. 43 44 THE WISE BLUFFER Man's days upon the earth are few and numbered. That is the chief reason why he should seek to make them enjoyable with as little hard labor as possible. Of course, the loafer who never does any work is excluded from this class, likewise the book worms who bury themselves in their manuscripts until they themselves become as rusty as their books. I have observed in numerous classes in my school career the wise bluffer who is ever present, and who merely glances through his assignments and resigns the rest of the work to his wise head. During the first of the recitation he talks in- cessantly, contributing frequently to the discussion, These contribut.ons are mostly derived from his own opinions, never from the book, although the unsus- pecting teacher does not become suspicious of this. His plan of attack conse- quently causes the poor bookwo.ms and loafels to fall prey to the questions of fact which are asked concerning the text. It was my opportunity to fall in with one of my acquaintances one morning on my way to school. I knew him to be a bluffer, as he was a member of one of my classes. I told him that I knew he was a bluffer and he replied that it took some effort to be only a bluffer. He also informed me that he had caught an early car in order to spend fifteen cr twenty minutes on one of his assignments. I want to add that he skimmed through the recitation safely. The moral of all this is that a certain amount of bluliing skillfully employed once in a while will prove very profitable. Although a man cannot live without labor, neither must he make a drudge of himself. Bonnie Bell, 12A. AMERICA Far to the west, across the sunset sea America extends, land of the freeg Here beat wild breakers 'gainst Maine's rocky shore, And raging blizzards shake the cottage door, Yet also here in California's land Eternal spring reigns high on every hand, Where sunny skies are ever blue and calm, And gentle zephyrs kiss the stately palmg Here snow-capped mountains lift their lofty heads, And sun-scorched deserts stretch their sandy beds. No other mighty country under heaven Can boast such varied scenes as here are given. The people love a life of luxury And are apt to be forgetful and carefree, They always search for pleasures and for fame, Forgetting why their pilgrim fathers came, But yet the Hag for which their fathers died, These patriots fight valiantly besideg For While these people still have strength or breath Their motto still is Liberty or Death.

And now, as we are about to go we can not but express our gratitude to you, the faculty, who have done so much to make our school more than just an educational institution, to you who have made it a home. You have put a spirit of friendliness into our daily routine. You have corrected us in our mistakes and helped us with our problems. You have sought to raise our eyes to higher goals and have taught us how to reach them. You have inspired in us high ideals and helped us to live up to them. You have done this, first of all, because you have been interested in us, as boys and girls. NVe have felt and appreciated this interest and your influence shall always remain in our lives as an expression of what you have done for us and for East High. The Class of '22, A FEW FACULTY FACTS 'Tis true the students make the school, but then we cou1dn't do VVithout the helpful FACULTY, who toil to get us through. First comes MR. BURTON, tall, dignified, and trim, And after that a band of those, who are assisting him. Then whirls by MR. XVARREN, who reads his absence list. For such a busy gentleman, he's quite a humorist. And see, here comes MISS NEEDLES, adviser of the girls, She keeps us out of trouble, and straightens out our curls. MRS. ALDERSON for History has quite a bit of fame, Beside her privileged classes, the others seem most tame. MISS MURPHY, teaching English, is really very clever, Her clothes are things of beauty, and prove a joy forever. MR. BAKER'S music does charm the savage beast. MISS CHURCH teaches the elements of oxygen and yeast. MISS CUMMINGS teaches English. Her new Ford has some class. Through her study room you never without a slip can pass. MR. SPEER, who teaches Salesmanship, helps the Quill sell ads. MISS HAMMER keeps a record of all the grades we've had. MISSES McBRIDE and GABRIEL, together without end, Attend Shakespearean meetings and prove the Seniors' friend. MISS CUPLIN, kind and proper, expounds Geometry. MISS KNAUER teaches us to find what equals x or z. 55 11' A CU LT Y -Q X The group of Philo girls are often helped out by MISS WOOD. The art of making gardens 'by her is understood. It's said that our MISS GILBERT can ride a horse quite well. Of birds and beasts and chicken hawks in Scicnce she can tell. MISS ST. JOHN teaches higher Math.g MISS BALLIET does it, too. It seems they do together most everything they do. MISS SPRAGUE can talk in Latin and also parlez vous. MISS PADMORE, who is English, can teach Cicero to you. MISS WICKWARE, though she's rather small, can tell you lots of things. She knows of all the dynasties and Babylonian kings. MRS. HALL, of cafeteria, stirs up our cakes and soups. MRS. R. HALL teaches sewing of buttons holes and loops. MISS JORDAN, small, will teach us French, and, oh, how she can skate. MISS SPOOR, in Latin, many tales of Caesar can relate. MISS BEMAN, in Business English, the newest things does teach, In business forms and letters, and proper ways of speech. MISS HELMREICH, short, loves dearly MISS SNYDER, who is tall. If you don't see them together, you d0n't see them at all. MR. LYMAN, versed in Botany, tells how the llowers grow, He's E Epi Tan adviser, as probably you all know. MISS COREY trains the actors and helps us to declaimg To win us all the contests becomes her greatest aim. MISS PATTERSON, librarian, helps us to find a book. MISS PATTERSON, in Latin, names towns that Caesar took. MESSRS. STEPHENS, JONES, and BINGHAM teach business rudiments, From rents and law to money loans, and adding up of cents. NURSE JOHNSON ministers to those, who're in a sickened state, In the teaching of Home Nursing she's aided by MISS WAITE. MR. PETERSON, in Science 6, will give you 'lectric shocks, In spite of jokes his awful tests bring trembling to his flocks. Our many future pedagogues MISS DUVAL helps to train, Teaching proper poise in classrooms that will order good obtain. MISS MACY, on the'third floor, helps us out with Art, The posters of her classes bring joy to every heart. And there are many teachers who'll prove good friends to you Not only while you're at E. H., but also when you're through. Margaret Gruener, IZB. 57 B SENIORS 'u X 'T 2223 ' 0 . Q, , , K an IOI' fy Qxufxi aff? 7iQw , -X X, 'Mi' ss: THAT STUDY ROOM 'tThere's husbandry in the air, reads Macbeth as I proceed to follow out Miss Wood's instructions as to the reading of the lesson. I wonder whether Shakespeare meant Herschel Lair, sitting two rows over from me talking to Irene Hahnen and Vivian Hill, when he wrote that. I have done the deed, didst thou not hear a noise? the 'book reads on, as Russell Johnson clumsily throws some scrap paper and misses the waste basket under Miss Snyder's desk. You do not unbend your 11oble strength to think, Shakespeare continues, and, if he were living today, he would in all probability refer to the students who sprint to the lunch room the Hfth and sixth periodsg or he might mean some of those who play hookeyg or those pupils who take mathematics, such as James Hulse, Lawrence Mason, and James Shea. Oh, well, Shakespeare is too deep to read now, and as the next period is lunch, guess I'll try something else. The clock moves so slowly that a snail could beat it by a mile, I guess I'll try to study my Civicsg l've studied my English for tomorrow. The iirst page con- tains a picture of the Supreme Court of the United Statesg and from the looks of Carl Foster and Wayne Hayes one would think they were trying to make the bench and that honorable body. t'Government protects the poor against the oppression of the wealthy, reads the opening paragraph. LaVerne Peterson pokes his head across the aisle to remark, The guy that wrote that book meant to protect stu- dents from the teachers' assignments. Robert Liicht adds, If it wasn't for teachers' assignments, there wouldn't be no study hall or study periods. A gentle reminder and calling out of three names rudely interrupts our conver- sation about Civics. We are fortunate in having the check and balance system, reads the next paragraph, when who should come in but Mr. VVarren. Well, the author of the book sure said it-Mr. Warren is a check and balance system for East High. He carefully looks us over, and from a. slip of paper in his hands he proceeds to read the check for yesterday, and also reads who is going to balance for that check. Mr. XVarren departs, and still that blamed old clock doesn't move. I wonder how in the world they expect us to study with pupils running to their lockers after their lunches. I can hear Lance VVhite yell to 'Conrad Fischer, Hey, Con, what you going to eat for dinner? Conrad replies in so many words that it would dis- tract any person who was studying, Guess I'll just eat some strawberry short- cake and some ice cream. George Goldenson pauses long enough to say that he believes it would be a good idea to abolish the fifth period study, on the ground that the average pupil's appetite might get stale, and that he would be glad to sign a petition to be presented to the City Council to that effect. The strains of the Girls' Glee Club coming from the assembly room direct my attention to that quarter. As I look up, Mr. Burton enters the door, and I feel a sudden thirst for more 'book knowledge come over me. Guess I'll try to read up on Salesmanship. 'tThere are very few good salesmen, the book reads. The author hasn't become acquainted with the students of East High yet. I sure wish somebody would sell me his dinner, as that clock won't move for at least another hour. Wonder what makes Doris Strait so busy-powdering her nose, just now. Oh, 59 Q ' X gigs well, suppose she has her lessons. Some people are born smart and I guess she is one of them. Gee, that sure is a nifty little bow tie that Reuben Redman is wearing. Wonder where he got it and how much he paid for it. Say, didja go to the Orpheum last night? asks Jessie Marohn of Ethel Her- ron, who sits behind her. Whadja wear? Who didja go with? Wasn't it swell? At the same time LaVerne Greenlee is busily engaged trying to tell LaVerne Peterson how to look pleasant after coming out of a Business English class. It seems as though LaVerne G. is having a hopeless task. Well, it is 12:10 and as I have studied hard all period, guess I'll wait for the bell to ring. TWO ROUTES THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL There are only two routes for the student to take in his four years' journey through high school. Both start at Emerald Point, and have Diploma Point as their objective. The first is the overland route, known as the Let-er-Slide Trail. Leaving from Freshman Inn at Emerald Point, the path lies first through Sleepy Hollow and Lazy Valley. Next along the way come the Bluff Mountains, chief among which is Mount Glittering Generality. The Alpine Trail is severe, and all along the road may be seen the remains of scholastic caravans. Even if this obstacle is safely passed, he who travels over this trail must next pass through the Desert of Re- quired English. This is a very dry region, and is inhabited by such ferocious ani- mals as Short Stories, Essays, and Giant Themes. The trail next leads to Lan- guage Bog. This is from sixteen to twenty miles across. Many Wanderers enter, but few emerge safely therefrom to see the shores of Exam Lake. Here the good ferry, Open Book, awaits. The ride across these dark waters is extremely haz- ardous, because of the frailty of the craft. At this point we must avoid exposure to the Sharks who infest the lake. The last quarter of the journey over the Let-er- Slide Trail is not particularly difficult. In fact, many who travel by the other route for the greater part of the way prefer the Overland Trail for the last fourth of the trip. The Trail finally ends at Capengown City, which lies at the head of Diploma Point. VVhatever may be the perils of the Overland Route, it is still more diflicult to sail over the Deep Study Route. Leaving September Bay at Emerald Point, the good ship, Midnight Oil, steers its course far out to sea in order to avoid the rocky projections from the Bluff Mountains. For a distance the student has an easy course to steer. But soon Fussers' Reef heaves into sight, and only a determined pilot can hold the prescribed course, Spring-Day Haven can be seen on the main- land, but those who reach their destination within the allotted time must resist all temptations to anchor there. The Deep Study Route would be a very easy one, however, if it were not for the Shoals of Outside Activities. These shal- lows grow worse as Cape Junior is rounded, and the grinding has been known to send many a staunch vessel to the bottom.

To all people who do not like adventures this story will prove dry and uninteresting, so I will ask them to take their books and go to 201 before Miss Mouse begins her speech. Since adventure stories are always listened to or read with much more atten- tion if the individual who has participated in them is present and tells the story, I will present to you Felina, the Mouse of human intellect, who will tell you her story. Dear fellow students of East Highg ahem-My life, as the professor has just stated, has been one oz' thrills. I was born in East High. I cannot say where, for that would be betraying my family. My early lite was uneventful, but when I became of age I tired of the dullness of home, and despite the azlmonishings of my parents, I started on my first trip in search for ad- venture. Of this trip I will tell you. 0 O 3 Most of you know, I suppose, that it is a very easy matter to get into a locker if one knows how. I fol- lowed a well beaten mouse trail into the first locker and encountered, to 1ny horror, a large obstacle. XVhat could it be? My knees turned to water, but the knowledge that I would be laughed at if I turned back spurred me on. It was so big I could not go around it. Indeed there was hardly room for me in the narrow space unoccupied by this object. So I determined to scale it. Accordingly I dashed up the side, over into space and plop! right down into the middle of the thing. It seems it was hollow. I wandered around for what seemed a century in this dungeon-like piece of rubber, for such my nose indicated it to be. You know we mice can see very well in the dark, and suddenly I saw a name, Miriam Meek. If Miss Meek only knew the agonies of mind which I endured while trying to get out of her galosh she would be more considerate and turn her galoshes or hang them up hereafter. I shall never cease to be thankful to a kind providence which enabled me to scale the high wall and escape to freedom. ' But my adventures had just begun. I had gone through only a few more lockers when I saw hanging on a hook a dress in tatters, and a hat on the iioor of the locker in shreds. I remember this particularly for I had a terrible time later extricating myself from a similar state of affairs in another parking place. How- ever, my curiosity was very much aroused. I suppose that ragged clothing, giving the impression of recent listic clashes, is the latest fashion from Paris. But in the next locker! Mercy, I stepped lightly on an apparently smooth piece of paper, and down I wentidown, down, through oceans of paper. In my descent I noticed a name, LaVerne Greenlee. If Mr. Greenlee is in the audience I should like him to know that in order to save myself from death by sinothering, I had to eat my way out of that mess of paper. Some of the unsolved propositions were terribly unpalatable, too. But what a change I found in the next locker. Everything was in excellent order. The books were in such a neat pile that I took a moment to glance at the fra . g, Y,-,I me wry!! 1-62 U 0 U 0 ko I e ji! KF Miss Felina Mouse. 63 JUNIORS e'F-2 ' cs i X 1. XX titles of two of them. Since the name Helen Scott was on both of them, I supposed they were her property. One was Whiz Bang,', the other, HA Thousand Ways to Please a Husband. As I wandered on through the lockers I saw many other curious things, and once I nearly drowned in some sort of sweet smelling oil. I bumped into the bottle and over it came. I was terribly disheartened at the time, but now you should see my coat-itis so shiny and sleek. Since that I have found that these bottles of oil or brilliantine are very prevalent in the basement lockers. In one of the lirst floor lockers I found books stacked against the corner as though to keep it from public view. So, since I have only human intellect, I went behind these books to see if I could discover this mysterious thing. I, of course, expected to find a trap or something equally awful, and was on my guard. 1 was not afraid, understand, but you know it was very mysterious. I crept behind the pile of books and found, to my disappointment, only a soft white cushion covered with a sickeningly sweet dust, and a little gilt box full of red stuff. 1 wonder why the occupant of the locker was so secretive about a little thing like that? The cushion afforded me - .'..' I a delightful place to take a nap. U X 4 I have spoken too long already, and the professor has 53 a fewwords to say. But I must tell you that I appreciate Q 45 ?

I am sure you have all enjoyed Miss Mouse's talk and since she is a resident- student we may have her with I X KF us again some time. However, I will not be responsible for any personal affairs exposed by Miss Felina. You must take those up with her. ljjqi 0 A Mabel Warner.

As I raised my head to glance down the street, I could see the heat waves fairly quivering on the pavement. School recitations were over for the day, 'but the three books in my arm held a significance which I could not overlook, much as I wished to. Changing my books to the other arm I sighed gloomily. Three more blocks to go and then-I could not force my thoughts to remain on the dreadful subject any longer. Maybegwhy, we might have an assembly tomorrow, or say, I remembered my Latin teacher said she was not feeling well! Finding myself at the gate I turned in, stumbled wearily up to my room, then pausing just long enough to pitch my books with unerring skill into the scarred old waste-basket, I slumped down into the big easy chair. For some time I lay sprawled just as I had dropped. I struggled desperately for the next half hour, scrawling sentence after sentence in my wild desire to get through. Then I picked up the paper in an attempt to read it. The article was useless, merely an incoherent jumble of words and phrases. I tore it up, started overg the second was worse than the first. Again I began, only to come to the seemingly inevitable conclusion. In despair I began to turn over in my mind the things which had been said in class, vainly hoping that they might throw some light on the subject. I remembered that someone had spoken of the assigmnent as an easy lesson. I chalked up a black mark against the culprit, mentally resolving that when the time came to square scores I would be there. Again I started to scribble, scarcely realizing what I was doing. Then I began to take pleasure in writing all the reasons I could summon to mind why I could not write essays, how I felt when I had to try, and why I disliked essay Writing. When I had finally exhausted this inexplicable form of amusement, I rose, having reached this resolution, that the only thing I could do was to sacrifice all my choice plans for Friday, and in their place learn the essentials of essay writing under the stern dictatorship of our inexorable magistra. Suddenly I turned to find my chum, who had entered without my knowledge, grinning at my predicament. That was the climax. The stream of speech which I launched at the source of his amusement was both vivid and complete. Utter- ing an expression of surprise he picked up the papers on which I had expressed myself so thoroughly, and started to read them. Half through he paused with an exclamation of astonishment. VVhen he had finished he threw down what I had written with a cry of delight and clapped me on the back. Before I could open my mouth he had hurled himself into a congratulatory speech that would have made a senator turn green with envy, complimenting me on my originality and my wonderful explanatory ability in that line of study. When I finally man- aged to break in and ask if it was really an essay, be thumped me on the back, thrust the papers within an inch of my nose, as if I had never seen them before in my life, and exclaimed that if this wasn't an essay there was no such thing in existence. 'tVVell if that doesn't beat the Dutch, I murmured to myself, an essay in disguise. Clarke Baridon, IOA. G9 SOPHOMORES G A, ,, ,..... X i ' NS' ON LUXURY One day while I was searching for a definition of the word luxury, I met Mr. Xvilson, a shrewd, old Scotchman whose broad thinking and homely wisdom have added much to the intellectual side of our little community. Mr. Wilson, I asked him, 'twhat do you think luxury really is? He looked at me quizzically for a moment then- Well, lassie, it may seem a bit far-fetched, but I think that real luxury is not in the beautiful homes nor in the fine possessions we own, but in the kind of mind and soul we have. If we are discontented and sullen, of what good are those things to us? But if we are happy and eager to absorb all that life offers us, it is not necessary to have ma- terial luxuries. A peaceful, contented mind is to be valued far more than an expensive piece of bric-a-bracf' ' I was amused the other day at hearing a woman remark that she never felt quite so wickedly wasteful, and therefore luxurious, as when she retired with every light in the house turned on. Tommy, the little boy next door, declares that if he had five dollars all his own to spend he would go straight to the drug store and invest every cent of it in candy. What a fine disregard he had for the much advocated rainy day theory! And Doreen, Tommy's sister, told me in a childish burst of confidence that if she could ever have a new dress, and not one of her sister's dresses made over, she would be willing to wear old dresses all the rest of her life. It was not that the dresses were not prettygfor Mrs. Young was adept at cleaning and turning the material and Qinasmuch as it was possiblel changing the entire appearance of the dress-but it was the awful made-over feeling it inspired in her. Secretly, I agreed with Doreen. If there is anything than can take away a person's self-confidence and rob him of his zest for living, it is a made-over dress. And yet-I wonder if, when the new dress does finally come, Doreen will not appreciate it all the more for having had the detested made-overs? Every year we look forward to the visit of Aunty Moreland, who, though she is not a relative of ours, is such a dear, quaint little old lady she seems like one of our own family circle. We always find ourselves listening attentively when she begins to tell us bits of gossip she has brought with her from Xvren Valley, the little, old-fashioned village in which she lives. The other night, after telling us of the time she had had the minister for dinnerein Wren Valley it is a very important event-she exclaimed very suddenly, I have always thought that my life would be perfect if I could afford to serve whipped cream with the dessert at any time I wished. I hate to wait until the minister comes, especially when he comes only two or three times a year! What a wealth of meaning there is in Aunty Moreland's words! ,A Who hasnpt, at some time in his life, wondered why all of us, instead of a favored few, calnnot have the luxuries we want? If we were offered the choice of a brown, drab life with nothing but bare necessities in it, and a bright, rose-colored one, filled to overflowing with the nice things everyone wants, how many of us would choose the former?

K 2 1 1 51 Freslwm n L PEPINO'S NIGHT OF FEAR I will begin at the beginning by saying that this is told as a true story. The scene is laid in the mountains of Italy. Pepino was preparing to go to the town at the foot of the mountains for another six months' supply. At last Pepino was quite ready, his donkey was saddled and everything was in readiness. All his working companions crowded about him. They were trying to give their messages to wives and sweethearts all at once. Tell Victoria I will send the money soon, said one. Bring back a picture of my little bambinof' said another. Be sure you tell Pedro to come here to work, another requested. At last all the messages were given, and Pepino started out by the side of his donkey. Down the rugged mountains they began their way. Pepino soon noticed the sky was getting dark. Big, black clouds were rolling in and his heart thumped with fear, for he knew he could not journey down the mountains if a storm came. He hurried on. Now and then Pepino murmured prayers to Mary and the Saints. It was not long before the rain came dashing heavily down. The wind carried Pepino much faster than he could walk. Soon he came in sight of an old abandoned house. He led his donkey onto the porch and entered. We will leave them for awhile and go to Pepino's home, where Maria is returning from the fields with Rosinia. Are you expecting Pepino tonight? asked Rosinia. Yes, replied Maria, he is coming home tonight, but I am worried, for the sky tells me that there must be a storm in the mountains. I hope Pepino is safe. Have you heard? asked Rosinia. I hear that Luizia is sending her daughter to Rome to study at school. What? cried Maria. You don't say. Why, Luizia's daughter is fifteen. It is high time she was getting married. Now, there is that nice boy Pasquelli. He has a big farm and an olive patch. Yes, yes, what are people coming to, sending their daughters to Rome for an education? How wicked! But Luizia is different from us. She says girls should have an education. They should not get married so young. Who in the world will want to marry her daughter when she is nearly twenty? Oh, my! cried Maria as the sky suddenly grew red with lightning, I hope Pepino is safe! 'tBuona Sera, said Rosinia, I must go 'before it storms. Buena Sera, answered Maria. Pepino had just entered the kitchen door of the old abandoned house. It was very dark, but the lightning lit up the house now and then helping him to find his way to a room in which there was a fireplace. The house in which Pepino was, was said to have been haunted, because many policemen and Red Capsn had been killed there while engaged in battle. Or, as they said in Italian, Tanta Carbiniere e vagabondif' Pepino soon found an old box and sat before the fire. He pulled from his sack a chunk of bacon, stuck it on a stick and thrust it into the tire. It was soon done, and he ate peacefully for a while. But it was not long before he thought he heard someone talking in the room above him. 73 2 , miie He went upstairs to find the cause, but came down laughing. Why, it is only the wind, he said. How foolish I am. Suddenly as he was again about to doze off to sleep, he was aroused by a ter- rible, piercing scream. He looked around when-horrors of horrors!-an arm was dropping down from the ceiling. Pepino's hair stood up straight on his head. Parts of a body dropped down one at a time! Now and then frightful screams filled the room. Pepino was really a brave man, so he sat in his chair without moving. Five men stood before him. A moment later a table danced before his eyes. On it was a deck of cards. Shall we play briscola? he asked the tive men. Everyone sat down, but not a word did anyone say. Then Pepino realized he was in danger, for one of the men was raising an axe to strike him. Up he jumped and out into the rainy night he went, When he reached the town next day he was ill with fright, but he managed to tell his story. Many times after that his friends would ask him to tell about the spirito. Although they would laugh at Pepino's story, they would pretend to be very serious while he was telling it to them. No one knew the story as well as Pepino. Each time he told it he liked to add one more ghost than he had before. Though the last time he said there were only five. And Maria was really the only one who believed Pepino. Perhaps he saw the ghosts, perhaps he did not. Who knows? No oneg not even Maria. Margaret Morasco, 9A. BEING A FRESHMAN On Sunday evening Johnny Green went to bed feeling wobbly in the knees be- cause he started to high school the next morning. He awoke just at dawn the next day and ate his breakfast alone, After his meal he walked slowly over to his friendts house and whistled. Receiving no answer, he sauntered to the park to sit down and think it over. He did not Want to go to school: of that he was certain. However, he nerved himself to the task, at least he said it was a task, and started to school when the hands of his Yankee showed quarter of twelve. As he approached East High he saw a tall person advancing to meet him who introduced himself as Mr. Burton, the principal, and said, We were so afraid you were not coming, Mr. Green, and you see we have made all the arrangements for your arrival. The principal led Johnny up long rows of kneeling upperclassmen and into the building. This is your program, Mr, Green,', said his guide. Is there anything on it you would like changed ? No-o, that is, I don't think soft replied Johnny, still dazed. Johnny was taken to the office and introduced to several of his teachers, but his replies to their pleasant remarks were rather broken. After he had been escorted to his various classes and was about to leave, a boy rushed up, Oh, Mr. Green! he panted, I'm the fellow who has charge of the programs. Now if you don't like our entertainments, you just tell me and I'll have them changed. Is there any sort of play or moving picture that you would especially like, sir? Johnny couldn't think of anything and turned to go home when a girl hurried to head him off, crying, Where have you been, Mr. Green?

Once outside he ran for home, but While crossing the street he ran into a truck. As the juggernaut bore down upon him he heard someone scream, Johnny! Johnny! Oh, John, it's time to get up. Donald Douglas, 9A. 75 e A . THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE In East High, June 1, 1922. The unanimous declaration of the Freshman class of '25 of East High. When in the course of high school events, it becomes necessary for one class to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of East High the separate and equal station to which the laws of East High and of East High's principal entitle them, a decent respect to the opinion of students requires that they should declare the cause which impels them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all Freshies, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors are created equal, that they are endowed by their principal with cer- tain inalienable rightsg that among these are Life, Liberty, and Happiness, that to secure these, governments are established among Seniors, that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of Freshies to destroy it and to institute a new government, organizing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to affect their Safety and Happiness. The history of the present Seniors is a history of repeated injuries and usurpa- tions, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over inferior classes. To prove this are facts. Our just demands are submitted to a candid school: 1. Absolutely no testsg they are injurious to our health and well-being. 2. Gum chewing, one package of Wrigley's per day is the minimum. 3. Recitations over radiophone accepted the morning after the night before. 4. Assemblies made to order: be sure to let us know which class you wish dropped. 5. All classes for Freshies held in the morningg the Seniors may have all ot the rest of the day for their classes. 6. Window-seats should be provided for all farsighted Freshmen. 7. A complete set of the latest fashion plates should be placed in the library for use of Freshmen girls only. - 8. All pink slips should be carefully saved for Seniorsg they appreciate the dainty little things. 9. Freshmen should be allowed complete, freedom in the halls in order to ac- quaint themselves with the building. 10. Each and every class afllicted with spring fever will be allowed to recite on the lawn until recovery. 11. A representative from each section in the assembly should, when a speaker talks too long, gently but firmly inform the torturer. 12. In the cafeteria, upper classmen should wait until after all Freshmen have been served. 13. Also, on all occasions, should Freshmen be shown due respect and courtesy from other students and certainly no Freshman's dignity should be marred by any embarrassing or dignity lowering incident.

This organization has done some work in the school that is certainly a credit to it. Wfhenever something that would benefit the school was to 'be done the Student Council did it. A few of the many worth-while things that this group has done in the past year are as follows: 1. The Red Cross Christmas Box Drive, in which one hundred and fifty boxes were filled. 2. The Public Welfare Drive, in which one hundred and forty dollars were col- lected. 3. A Thanksgiving contribution to the Iowa Children's Home. 4. Ticket sale for the fall entertainment, in which over 2,400 tickets were sold. 5. Quill subscriptions. 6. Clean-Up Campaign with the Poster Contest. 7. Ticket sale for the 'Community Play. 8. The Home Meet. Maudie Long, 12A. THE PHILOMATHEAN LITERARY SOCIETY Our first meeting last fall was a picnic at Union Park, where we outlined the plans for the year. Later, the names of new members were proposed and voted on. Our next social gathering was a Weiner roast, at which these members were initiated. In January a banquet was held in the school cafeteria celebrating the birthday of the society. This was Philo's biggest social event of the year. A contest was held, under the leadership of Beulah Ellison and Grace Hethershaw, to promote attendance at meetings. The losing side entertained the winners at a picnic. The officers for the first semester were: President, Madelaine Mershong Vice President, Dorothy Driessleing Secretary, Zannah Moore, Treasurer, Marjorie Cot- trell, For the second semester the oflicers were: President, Dorothy Driesslein, Vice President, Marjorie Cottrellg Secretary, Fern Freeman, Treasurer, Irene Morgan. Y. W. C. A. The Y. W. girls have been putting forth strenuous efforts this year to make their club a better organization. They have accumulated two hundred and forty- seven dollars in their treasury, all of which has been made by their own labor. One hundred dollars of this sum will be sent to 'China to aid missionary work there, fifteen dollars will be sent to the national fund in Washington, and the remainder will be kept for future needs. A Girls' Bible Class has been organized and Miss McClary is studying with the girls. Interesting discussions and many helpful suggestions are taken home from these meetings. All ,of+the girls like fun and Heats. Perhaps you have seen the girls on the third floor eating cakes and drinking cocoa. In order that the girls might be prepared for immediate work and active service in the fall they have elected their officers for the coming year. Installation serv- ices were held at the Y. W. C. A. building, April thirtieth, The new ofiicers took up their work at once so that experience would not be lacking in their duties for next year. The following officers were elected: President, Helen McCoyg Vice- President, Marie Wilkinsong Secretary, Marguerite Hartmang Treasurer, Elvira Linquist. Marguerite Hartman, 11A. S4 Q X E EPI TAN A record for the year that we may well be proud of! This is the way E Epi Tan boys feel. Starting in at the 'beginning of the year with about ten old members, the club has grown into an organization with over forty liveewire fellows. The first month was spent in organizing and debating. Then a masquerade party was given to balance work and pleasure. Officers were elected every eight weeks, so that several members had the opportunity of learning how to conduct a meeting. Several initiation meetings were held in which the candidates did various things. At the first open meeting a mock marriage ceremony and divorce suit were given very successfully. At the second open meeting the members of the Forensic Club were our guests, at which time an interesting debate on capital punishment was given, At the beginning of this semester a joint dance was given by the E Epi Tan and Forensic Clubs, which promoted a more friendly feeling between the two clubs. Time from several of the meetings was taken to help the public speaking teams of the school. All of the members of the debating team, one of the declam- atory speakers, and the three extemporaneous speakers were chosen from the ranks of the society, and succeeded in taking first place in the Declamatory Con- test, and first, second, and sixth place in the Extemporaneous Contest. Much of the success of our speakers was due to the criticism of our faculty adviser, Mr. Lyman, who aided us in every way possible. F OREN SIC CLUB The Forensic Club has just completed one of the most successful years in its history. At the beginning of the first semester, many serious debates were held in which the club showed such an active interest that this type of program was one of the main attractions for the remainder of the year. The Forensic has some of the best debaters in school in its ranks, and every member has his turn at de- hating, The social activities of the club consisted of a Beginners' Dance, a dance given to the Sioux City football team, and several musical programs which were very enjoyable. A Forensic-E Epi Tan Dance was given at the beginning of the semester. Sev- eral initiation parties and musical programs completed the course of programs. BOYS' HI-Y Every member of the Hi-Y feels that the year just closed has been a great suc- cess. The three largest events in the past year were the Father and Son Ban- quet, Ladies' Night, and the Mother and Son Banquet. Most of the members were Seniors and they certainly enjoyed having their parents and friends with them at these meetings, as they realized that this was probably the last time that this would be possible. Next in importance were the three Union meetings at East, North, and West, in the order named. Fellows from all parts of the city met and were Upalsi' for the evening. At our regular meetings we have been having some excellent discussion classes. Under the leadership of Mr. Chapman and Mr. Wilson, our faculty adviser, we have had some real arguments. Several of the members waxed eloquent at times, and the only thing that would stop the discussion was the call of time. At the last regular meeting new ofiicers for the coming year were elected. Ray- mond Shaw, President, Louis Danes, Vice President, Verne Devine, Secretary, and Paul Goodrich, Treasurer, were the men elected. This is a good cabinet for next year and the members of the club who graduate wish them the best of luck next year. John Bloem, 12A. 85 i ,L 3 . g 9 : : s: A qu .- -1 1, L.

We have enthusiastic, energetic leaders, and peppy membersg our meetings have been both merry and earnest. Our Dramatic Club members are leaders in all other school activities, they display Dramatic Club zeal in all they do. During the year we have been entertained by our talented readers, dancers, and singers. Although all of us do not have outstanding talent, we are proud of those who do. Each of us learned to appreciate the best humor, real humor, when our well-portrayed one-act plays were presented. An opportunity was given us to try our hand at coaching plays and at the gentle art of stage make-up. Our activities did not lie within our own group. We sponsored the ticket sale for the fall plays, and gave a party to the home room selling the greatest number of tickets. VVe furnished more members of the casts of the fall and community plays than any other organization. The first three places in the preliminary girls' declamatory contest Went to Dramatic Club girls. We are well satisfied with our work and feel that the Dramatic Club year of '21 and '22 will be remembered by all the members as one of the best the club has ever had. We know that the aid of Miss Corey, our adviser, has contributed much to our success. Dorothy Jastram, P. G. SHAKESPEAREAN CLUB VVe have been holdlng meetings regularly every other Friday. The programs have been varied in order to make them as interesting as possible. y At the first meeting of this semester a debate, followed by general discussion of Julius Caesar, was given. A social program was next on the calendar of events. In order to take up modern plays, at the next meeting we studied the play, Abraham Lincoln, by John Drinkwater, and made ourselves ac- quainted with some of the authoris characteristics. Since our meeting day came a week before Arbor Day, we had an Arbor Day program one week in advance. Members of the club told us about the significance of Arbor Day and Mr. Lyman gave us a very interesting talk about trees in this vicinity. An interesting feature on the second social meeting was the slang contest, in which each member made a list of slang expressions and their cure. The result was extremely educa- tional. The boys of the club took charge of the programs and presented a scene from the play, Midsummer Night's Dream. A membership drive was held which boosted the membership to over one hundred. GIRLS' DECLAMATORY CONTEST The Girls' Declamatory Contest was held at West High Audltorium, on Friday, April 21st, Alice Miller and Katherine Fulton represented East High. Alice Miller gave a reading, UA Crash Without, and Katherine Fulton gave a monologue, Keeping Seats at a Benefit. Eleanor Selby, of North High, took first place in the individuals and Ruth Eickelberg, of West High, was awarded second place. EXTEMPORANEOUS SPEAKING CONTEST On the night of April 7th, East High's Extemporaneous Speaking Team de- feated the West and North teams at the East High Auditorium. Clyde Norris, of East High, won first place in the individual honors. He talked on Unrest in India. Floyd Pickett, also of East, took second plac'e. His subject was China and Shantungf' Donald Clapp, of North High, was awarded third place. Charles Shane was East High's other representative. 87 M V w -.

James Bernard Fagan's romantic comedy, Hawthorne of the U. S. A., was presented by students of East High as the last number on the Community Pro- gram Course. The play was interesting and full of action. Malcom Love, as a leading man, was very much appreciated. Charles Shane produced a good share ot the laughs. Evelyn Preston made a very charming princess. Miss Corey once again lived up to her reputation by producing one of the best plays East High has ever seen. The cast was as follows: Anthony Hamilton Hawthorne ,.....

THE TIME OF HIS LIFE The East High Senior Class presented Leona Dalrymple's farce, 'tThe Time of His Life, as their spring play, on May 25th and 26th. Malcolm Love took the part of Tom Carter, the leading man. The action of the play is such that Tom Carter masquerades as the colored butler to help his sister out of a terrible pre- dicament. Mr. and Mrs. Wycombe, friends of the Carters, have decided to visit them and the letter bearing the news is delayed. The complications arise when Tom Carters fiance, Dorothy Landon, appears with the XYyoombes. Many en- tanglements follow. Mr. Landon arrives in the last act, and finally all is cleared up. Special mention ought to be given to Orval Armstrong, Marquerite Hartman, LeRoy Busby, and Floyd Pickett, who did some exceptional character work. Their parts were given and characters portrayed almost as well as professional actors. The whole play was well given, due in no small way to the work of Miss Corey, dramatic director.

Karl Voldeng, president, Ezra Ellis, vice presidentg and Helen Friend, secretary. were the officers elected and installed. On Nvednesday, March 12th, a dinner-dance, the first social affair of the organization, was held at East High, It proved to be a real get acquainted party. Regular meetings have been held once a month. A constitution was adopted and the foundation was laid for a truly successful club for boys and girls. Helen Friend, 12A. LATIN CL UB 92 Q X gig FRENCH CLUB The French Club has been one of the minor clubs this year, but nevertheless the members of the club have had some good times among themselves. The so- ciety consists of less than thirty members, who have stood back of the club in programs, parties, and other entertainments, in order that the society might win a good place in the social activities of the school. XVe hope that there will be a larger and better club next year and that the spirit of the club will never cease to grow. Ransom Burris, 12A.

THE BAND At the end of the present semester the band will have completed its third suc- cessful season. Mr. Baker and the pupils have succfeded in making It one of the finest organizations in school, and the prospects for next year are excellent. At assemblies, pep meetings, football and basketball games, Armistice Day Parade, State Teachers' Convention- Ain fact, wherever good music was required, the band fulfilled its part. During Music Xveek they gave two concerts at the city band- stand and played several times at school. The band worked hard and played hard, too, when they had the opportunity. Karl Voldeng, 12A. THE ORCHESTRA Several small orchestras have been doing their bit for East High by playing at the parties of the various clubs. An orchestra played for the Boys' Hi-Y Mother and Son Banquet. The orchestra, during Music Week, contributed several programs and on Easter Day gave one of the biggest concerts of the year at East High. Mildred Crowe, 11A. 95 L TENNIS CLUB I x 915 BTANVAI.

Our class discussions are taken up in such varied, interesting Ways that the meeting, unlike the real classroom session, takes on the form of a society or club meeting. Once a week our class period is given to round table discussion, on psycho- logical questions, questions pertaining to better methods of teaching, or general principles of teaching, which are all in correlation with our methods class. These discussions are varied by talks from those who have succeeded in the teaching profession. One talk of great interest to all was given by Mr. Speer, on How to XVrite an Application Letter. Another talk of interest was that of Mrs. Hoffman, who is helping to place the Normal Training Girls in different schools throughout the country. NVe greatly appreciate this help from those interested in our de- partment. , Opal L. Jones, 12A. TENNIS CLUB Keen competition was seen in the tennis tournaments, for the tennis club en- rollment showed some championship material, and those who saw the singles and the double mixed tournament know that they were played off with speed and skill. ' The team was sent to Ames for the state tournament. The Ofilcers of the Boys' Tennis Club are: Harold Edwards, President, and Ray VVindniiller, Secretary. Those elected for the Girls' Tennis Club are: Eunice Darby, President, and Marion Ackerson, Secretary.

He worked with ex-coach Moyer during the football season as manager and trainer. In January, when Mr. Moyer resigned, Coach Du Bridge took charge of the basketball players and developed our first varsity team to represent us in the City Tournament. He worked faithfully and untiringly, get- ting our track men in shape for one of our brightest track seasons. VVe are all glad that Mr. Du Bridge will be with us next year to help Coach Hoyt guide our teams through their heavy schedules. 99 .f-QTQ on ii i X54 xx XS Mr. W'ilson has proved an excellent helper this year to Coaches Du Br.dge and Moyer. He has won the love and friendship of all the men and he is known everywhere for his clean sportsmanship. VVe appreciate his faithful work and hope that he will be assistant coach next year. At last! After waiting four months to know who would be named to take ex- coach Moyer's position we are delighted to hear that Cress O. tDadJ Hoyt has been chosen. Mr. Hoyt was an all-star tackle on the Grinnell College football teams in 1915, 1916, and 1917. Since his discharge from the navy he has been coaching at Oskaloosa High and teaching Economics. NVe will more than readily back him in September when he takes charge of our athletes. ii SWIMMING TEAM SWHMWHNG This year our swimming team, under the instruction of Mr. Russell, was able to place near the top in all of the meets. The team was not as large this year as it formerly has been, but we are pleased with their work, as it is only the second year for our teams to compete in the interscholastic meets. George Turbett, one of last year's high point winners, was a great strength to the team this year. He won second place in the back stroke at Iowa City and at Ames. Basil Plummer, by his graceful diving, took second place in the fancy dives at the Ames meet and third place in the fancy dives in the Iowa meet. Ellis Conkling, last year's captain and highest point winner, took fourth place in the back stroke at the Iowa and Ames meets. Ransom Burris won fourth place in the plunge at Iowa City and Albert Beaver swam on the relay team. Basil Plummer and George Turbett were given places on the All-State team in the fancy dives and back stroke, respectively. On the second All-State team, Ransom Burris was awarded a place in the plunge and Ellis Conkling won a place iu the back stroke. BASKETBALL The City Basketball Tournament was played in a different manner this year. The tournament was divided into two rounds. In the first round the men were assigned to teams according to the weights, each school being represented by nine teams, three in each weight. In the second round, varsity teams were selected in each school and played for the city championship. This division of the tourna- ment aroused a great deal of interest, especially in the varsity games, as the re- sult was always in doubt until the final whistle blew. North High won the first 100 . L1Q X as age BASIC ICTHA lil. TICABIS round by Winning 35 and losing 19 gamesg East High won second place, taking 21 and losing 29 gamesg and XVest High won third place, winning 21 games and losing 33 games. In the varsity series the speedy West High team took first place, winning 3 games and losing 15 North High won 2 and lost 2 games, giving them second place, and East High won 1 and lost 3 games. The city championship was won by North High by a margin of 4 points, TRACK This year the Scarlet and Black had one of the strongest teams in many years. The men have worked conscientiously under Coaches Du Bridge and XVilson and deserve the highest commendations for excellent Work, The season opened with the Home Meet in early April, in which the Sopho- mores and Freshmen competed against each other, and the Juniors against the Seniors. The Sophomores scored 66 points and the Freshmen 46, while the Seniors scored 565 points and the .luniors 522. With this preliminary work-out our varsity team won the City Meet by a margin of 20 points. Paul Little was individual point winner, scoring 14 points. Ted Larson and Ralph Jensen scored 10 points each, Ted Larson, our star dasher, ran the 100-yard dash in 10:4-5. ln spite of being set back three yards for jumping the gun, Ted led the Held by four yards.

Ted Larson won the hundred-yard dash, the two- twenty-yard dash, and ran on the half-mile relay team. Leland Odell won the quarter-mile in the first heat and Louis Danes took second. In the field events Paul Little took second in the discus throw, the shot put, the broad jump, and tied for first in the pole vault. Our relay teams won the half-mile relay and second in the mile relay. By winning the relay cup three years we gain permanent possession of it. By winning second place in the State Meet Saturday, May 20th, our boys finished a very successful track season. The competition was very keen and all of our men ran good races. Paul Little tied the state record in the shot put by tossing the shot 45 feet 10 inches. We have missed the excellent work of Captain Jack Grove all season, but we are glad that he will be back again next year. East High feels proud of every man on the team and appreciates the work he has done. 102 ef2 X i Event 120-Yd. M,-Mile 100-Yd. 220-Yd. 440-Yd. Hurdles .,.. Run ...,.......,......

Why not form par- ties of two or three and with the aid of the following questions gain a clear under- standing of the topics of the day? From studying these questions you will obtain a great fund of general knowl- edge and will be able to express an opinion on everything as readily as Herman Vlfagner. When you have memorized the answers invite your teachers to dinner. Have some member of the family casually bring up the questions. At your rapid and ready replies your teacher will be astounded by your vast and unlimited supply of knowledge and remain impressed 'by your amazing intellect forever. SENIORS 1. Read the dictionary and state clearly in two sentences the main idea of the plot. What is the climax? 2. The Seniors' pictures look funny. Why and where is it and where were they done? 3. Look over the page on The Senior Garden. Concentrate for two minutes and then tell which is the fairest flower of all. 4. Begin with Henry Thomas and to the tune of The Rosary count the num- ber of pearls lost from the Seniors' pins. 5. Wouldn't it be awful if the class prophecy accidentally turned out to be true? AMONG US MORTALS 1. Don't you think that the two people in the B Senior class most eligible for class presidency are La Verne Peterson and Sam Isaacson? 2. State the rules for making a successful Senior out of a Junior. In case of dispute refer to Hoyle. 3. Is Sophomore humor funny or pathetic? 4. Let the Freshmen discuss the advantages of having class pictures taken in color. ORGANIZATIONS 1. Do you believe in Union Labor? 2. Why does the E Epi Tan Epi? 3. Reflect on Forensic punch. Memorize two stanzas of Chaucer's, If I Tasted It in Asia I Would Know It. 4. Air your views on the faculty advisers of the organizations. FACU LTY 1. Who is the best looking? 2. Do you think the Normal Training girls will ever attain that intelligent look of our East High teachers? BANTER 1. What are the essentials of a good joke? If five, name them. If three, do likewise. 2. Make a list of your friend's pet jokes. Include Charles Shane's orange peel. 3. Get a mental picture of Leroy Busby and then enumerate the times you have been forced to listen to the above list of jokes. 4. Look up the history of the joke, keeping in mind John Bloem's hair. Mem- orize all dates. 107 X X PEPPERMOUNT PICTURES Peppermount Showmen everywhere are on their toes to give you the greatest shows imaginable this year! Study the list.

This appeals to my sense of the appropriate to such a degree that I feel as though it is the premier of all simi- lar creations. 109 L Q , gig. THIS AND THAT FROMHHERE AND THERE Promptly at 8:10 every A. M. a big Studebaker with red wheels draws up at the southeast entrance of the building. A girl in a blue coat talks earnestly with the occupants until the 8:25 bell. Aha! A clue, Watson? But this is no deep mys- teryg it's only Helen B. having her daily talk with Johnny S. and Clarence F. A young couple sat next to me at the Arthur M.ddleton Concert. The gentle- man carefully fed the lady lump sugar until the beginning of the program. This is a dark secret. Don't tell. The other day Claire Yohe was seen at the library asking for a book, A Thousand Ways to Please a Woman. Miss Padmore promised her third hour class a test. After her class several stu- dents were seen conversing earnestly in the hall. The next day Miss Padmore entered the room armed with her test questions. But why did the dear children look so bright and beaming? Then she saw. They had given her a candy shower! In the excitement that followed Latin and tests were forgotten and Miss Padmore affably talked on England for the remainder of the period. We predict a great future for several of the young diplomats involved. Many girls would graduate with honors if they gave Flapper's degrees. Miss Murphy, wearing an orange blouse, was approaching a table where several girls were holding a lengthy conversation. Ssh! said one in an undertone, be quietg here comes the Yellow Perilf' Did you see the card on the door of Miss Needle's office, Go to the oilice to see Miss Needles ? Sounds as if she were on exhibition. A suggestion has been made that some of the girls kindly lend Lowell Hawk a barrett. One day a warm rain fell which awakened five snakes. The family en masse wriggled their way to the southeast walk, Although the rain continued to fall the students collected in a great body around them. One courageous damsel picked one up by its tail and carried it to the gym. This ends the tale+but, now, just how could she do it? Leroy Busby always skips 4th and 5th periods-with Mr. Warren's permission. He even enjoyed the Boost Des Moines parade, April 28th. When it is time to take Quill pictures some of the students seem to belong to all the organizations, and then some. WHY I AM A PESSIMIST I once had all my lessons, but didn't get called on. There are no assemblies. I may not graduate. I missed a Dramatic Club meeting when they had refreshments. I wrote a poem for The Quill, but it didn't get in. My pictures looked too much like me. I stayed until the tenth period for a book the librarian promised me and found it was gone. 110 . That . That . That . That . That . That . That . That no other .

While there he applied his splendid powers as a thinker to his theory that a person's conduct is an index to his mental condition, using the Seniors who were there as objects. We present his deductions intact: Zannah Moore, as a Civil War lady, foretells a longing for a position in the his- tory department of a city high school. Kathryn Brunk, a little girl, indicates clearly her ardor for a life as a kinder- garten teacher. Pauline Plumb, alias little Bo-Peep, wishes to be an author of nursery rhymes. Lily Field, the gentle colonial lady, longs to live in the Southland. Hazel Booth, the beautiful Spanish dancer, craves to be a proprietress of a dancing school. Margaret Best, stately as a Spanish senorita, bends her desires toward the stage. Marjorie Bishard, who was attired as a maid in waiting, covets the mistress- ship of the biggest house in town. It may be assumed that Madelaine Mershon's Robin Hoodette Costume shows a secret desire to be a bandit. Don't All Rush f'Minnel1uha Would Not Have Died had Worley's Drug Store been near.

When teacher scolds me 'cause I'm dense I never give a hang. I d0n't care if I never learn, For Ignorance is bliss. I'm happy nearly all the time, So I quite agree with this. I never like to go to school, I'd rather see a show, Except along 'bout passin' time, An' then I like to go. I like to sit an' chew my gum. An' whisper, talk, an' laugh. Don't like to study history- Never do get more than half. Don't wanna learn about Poe an' Scott, They died long years ago. I never liked the Iliad, 'Twas worse'n Ivanhoe.

In Manual Training I overwork On things that's cheaper bought. There's ain't no sense in lots of junk They try to teach us here. They try to overwork us kids An' the mental strain, oh, dear! All things seem useless, more or less, Till teacher mentions, Cardl' Or 'tPassin' Day is Comin ' And then I sure work hard. I carry all my lessons home And burn the midnight oil, The old hall clock ticks out the time While o'er my books I toil. I don't take time to eat my meals. Don't have much time to sleep.
