ROBERT WEBSTER CLASS COLORS-Blue and Gold Senior's Progress As we walked through the wilderness of school years, we lighted on a certain place in the year 1925 A. D., where was a school called EAST WATERLOO HIGH SCHOOL. And behold in the auditorium we saw a man clothed in wisdom who dwelt in the city ol' the PRINClPAL,S OFFICE. We beshrew him for his counsel. He gave us a scroll wherein was written HTHE ROAD TO GRADUATION CITY. l. Beware the slough of Flunk and .8 credit. 2. Work diligently that ye need not fear the day of commencement. 3. Avoid the giant Absence and Tardiness. If ye follow these commandments ye shall surely reach the city. 4. Now we saw upon a time while walking in the valley of SOPHOMORES, great and dignihed SENIORS. They perceived by our timid glance we were condemned to be looked upon with contempt, whereupon we walked by peacefully until we passed the gate of FINAL EXAMS, and came into the land of JUNIORS. Page 30 U ...wpmvcfa Bcnckf While walking along the highway came one-our beloved helper and advisor. MISS KNOCKE, who held council with Us that we might be safe. From among us we chose as leaders of the group-Garrison, Presidentg Veach, Vice Presidentg Parsons, Treasurer, and Clow, Secretary. We did choose as colors, blue and gold, that all might know us thereby. ln this year the SENIORS strodled quite over the whole breadth of the school, but there arose from our midst great athletes, such as, Schammel, Sansone, Diekman, Webberking, and many others who delivered EAST HIGII out of the mouth of DEFEAT. Not all of us endured the march to GRADUATION CITY, some fell into the gaping pit of FLUNK, others perished along the wayside. Some were devoured by the giant WEARY OF SCHOOL, and were never heard of more. On our way we stopped in the valley of DRAMATICS and presented the Cinderella Man, which amused the inhabitants of the country 'round about. ln this year also prepared we a feast for the wisemen, SENIORS, and bid them a fond farewell. Behold now, at the cross of SENIOR SUPREMACY, we casteth away our burden. Our gentle advisor forsook us not but guided us ever cheerfully. We chose as new leaders-Webberking, President, Noble, Vice Presidentg Webster, Treasurerg and Miller, Secretary. Then did we walk lovingly on. At a place called PI.EAsURE FAIR, we presented the New Poor and Merely Mary Ann. From our midst sprang three captains, Diekman, footballg Sansone, basketball: Webberking, track. Yea, we challenged even the faculty to a basketball game and behold we defeated them. ' I Now in this year must we therefore receive the comfort of our toil-and have joy for all our sorrow. We must reap what we have sown. We see betwixt us and the gate of GRADUATION CITY, the dark river of THIRTY-TWO CREDITS and COMMENCE- MENT. There is no bridge to go over: the river is very deepg at sight, therefore, of this river we are much astoundedg but we must go through or we cannot come at the gate. But we shall be of good cheer. Upon the bank of the river on the other side we see the lights of GRADUATION CITY. At the portals thereof await the host of adminis- ters of the city coming forth to meet us and transfigure us with the new raiment of POSSESSION OF A DII1LoIvIA. Page 31 XOQANGE 2.

And the dust lies. thick and heavy, Silky Cobwebs, works of skill, Stretched across the tiny window Casting shadows on the sill. While a,wea'oer, old and feeble, Deftly works, though bent and gray, Looks not from his shifting shuttle Wondering who might pass his way. And I lookiacross his shoulder, In the stillness of the room, I n the quiet peaceful silence, At the product of his loom. And there I und a story woven With the threads of High School yearsg Tells its,tale of joys and laughter, Woven with the threads of tears. Happy friendships, memories golden, Springtime picnics 'neath blue skies, Softly blend themselves together To spin the tale of days gone by. And our studies, themes, and finals, H istory, French, and all the rest, Then they seemed but hard and irksome, Now we see 'twas for the best. Thus, the web of time, the weaver Takes from off the ancient loom,' And the class of twenty-eight For another must make room. -ROBERT WRIGHT. o Page 33 Pagf' 34 CLASS OF 1929 . .4KRilVGE J BLHCKJ' FRANK-BEATLE WM.

The inspiration of the Muses have descended to us for Betty Young was victorious in the home piano contest and the girls' sextet contained a junior element. We were also represented in the string quartet by Margaret Moore and Virginia Neary who aided the quartet to win in the regional. Then, too, have you not remarked that Venus has blessed our group? To Venus then, O fair ones, give thanks for lipstick, powder and rouge. Among the junior Scholars we also have some artists of Dionysus, as was shown by the series of Dramatic Club plays inwhich the juniors were well repre- sented. ln the presentation of The Creaking Chair, the Egyptian influence on our tribe was shown full well by the effect of the scarabs-the blue-mysterious blue- shrieks-sobs-suppressed gasps and pleasing touches of humor. ln another branch of this work, Dorotha Bennett was also aided by the gods and was able to carry the school honors as far as the district meet in declam. 'Tis true, all the gods were busy, but the youngest of the immortals has labored most-and not in vain. The halls bear us witness when we see them sheltering the new duets. When We view the attachments-Carol and Wright, Lillian and Russell, William and Lorna, and Maggie and Tom--we marvel that a god so young and beau- tiful, can cast a spell so irresistible. You have heard-in response let all be grateful and sacrifice to the gods. Lead forth the wreathed victim. ' --ARLENE PETERS.

Even in our Sophomore year we have made our mark. In every outside activity the Sophomores. have held their banner high. ln two years this Sophomore Class will be Seniors. Now we do as much as the Seniors: then we will outdo any class before us. On the football team last year several letter men were Sophomores. lillis. Chris- tians. and Brandes. This year's team will have a nucleus of Sophomores in the lineup. ln basketball the first team contained four Sophomores. Dotson, Christians, Elliot and liolb. Christians is next yearls captain, an unusual feat for a Sophomore. The track team is made up of many of us, too numerous to mention. The golf and tennis teams both have Sophomores on them. Three of the four on the golf team are Sophomores: Dotson, liunstling, and Power. Kenny is the only Sophomore on the tennis team. The state championship orchestra is composed of about forty per cent Sopho- mores. The percentage in band is about the same. In glee clubs the Sophomores are also well represented. ln studies, the most important activity of all, the Sophomores led both the juniors and Seniors with high grades. We have a good start as a class, and in two years this class will be a very good group of graduates and Seniors. -ROBERT TQENNHY. Page 37 XOQHNGE a.

The game was played on a semi-mud Held, with a strong wind prevailing. After a twenty-five yard penalty, the ball was given to Cresco on about the seven yard line. Several line plunges took the ball over for the only score of the afternoon. October 1 This was the Hrst home game of the season. Because of the rain only a few fans saw the battle fought in a sea of mud. Independence came determined to get revenge for last year's defeat, but Captain Diekman did much to prevent this. October 8 The Dubuque game was played on a semi-mud field. The teams were quite evenly matched. During the third quarter, Schammel was back of the goal to kick out of danger when a low pass from center gave Dubuque two points. This was the only score of the game. Dubuque played an ineligible man and had to forfeit the game. October 15 East played its fourth game at Reinbeck. Shortly after the opening whistle, Reinbeck scored on a sweeping end run, but failed to kick the extra point. ln the third quarter, East carried the ball within a few yards of Reinbeck's goal, and, Garrison neatly kicked the extra point. Play continued in the middle of the field. With about a minute to play, Reinbeck kicked to East, the kick was fumbled and a Reinbeck end grabbed the ball and crossed the line, winning the game for Reinbeck. October 22 ln the Marshalltown game, East kicked off. On the third down, Marshalltown attempted a pass which Garrison intercepted and dashed across the goal. A pass netted the extra point. Later in the game, May blocked a kick and two line plunges gave .East its second touchdown. Garrison completed the day by kicking the extra point. . October 28 At Oelwein Garrison thought his ambition had been realized when he returned a kick for a touchdown but the ball was called back. East scored three touchdowns and one kick for extra point. November 4 The game with East Des Moines was played here. The strong East Des Moines team led by Captain Kernahan proved superior to East and scored four touchdowns and one extra point. Several long runs gave East Des Moines their scores. East High opened up a pass attack in the last few minutes of the game but it failed to bring any good results. November 11 On Armistice Day East went to Charles City. The game was played in a rain that had soaked the Held thoroughly, and ice appeared in numerous places. Captain Diekman captured honors by racing seventy-Hve yards for a score. Bingham carried the ball on a thirty-Gve yard run to the one yard line where the ball was put over on a line plunge. East's third score came after a series of forward passes by Garrison and Diekman. Garrison kicked goal. November 24 East High closed the l9Z7 football season on Thanksgiving Day by holding Grant High to a 6-6 tie. The game was played on a muddy Held. Garrison inter- cepted a pass and ran about eighty yards for East's only score. The kick failed. ln the midst of the second half Grant High carried the ball to the one yard line. Four plays were necessary to put it across and tie the game. The try for extra point failed. This game was the closest and hardest fought of the season. Page 46 . .4-ZPHNGE' 8 BLHCKW' Basket Ball Season About a week after Thanksgiving, 1927, Midge issued the call for basketball candidates. About seventy appeared the first few nights. By the first game only twenty-three players were attending regular practice. The hrst game was with Marshalltown on the home floor, resulting in a one point victory for the visitors. A week later, after waiting three hours for a snow- bound train, the return game was played at 10:30 P. M. in Marshalltown's new gym. Marshalltown won the game by two points, in the final minute of play. The next night Teachers College High was defeated by a 19-17 score. Two days before Christ- mas, lndependence handed East High its third defeat of the season. After the holidays Cedar Falls High and Webster City both beat East High by small scores. The next weekend Vinton was defeated by a single point. The following night, East High lost to Grant High of Cedar Rapids by a large score. On the next week end Charles City was defeated a second time. The next two weekends, Clarksville and Cedar Falls were defeated but at Grant High the Orangemen were defeated in a rough game. The next week LaPorte was defeated on Friday evening, but on Saturday, Vinton romped over East High's team. East High retrieved herself the next week by defeat- ing Charles City but Saturday Webster City again defeated the Orangemen. The final scheduled game went to La Porte, - Sectional Tournament With only a mediocre season behind them, the basketball team entered the sec- tional tournament, held at lndependence, and played wide-awake basketball, defeat- ing jesup 23-16, Monticello 20-16, and lndependence 21-24, thus winning the tourna- ment. This is the hrst time East High has won the sectional tournament. District Tournament A week later at Cedar Falls, on the College floor, East l-ligh won the opening game by defeating Oelwein. ln their next game Teachers College l-ligh defeated East High by 43 to 10 score. This eliminated East Waterloo from the tournament. Page 47 FXOQRNG 1: 2.

Music and athletics have been emphasized as themes in special issues, and a complete file of the papers is an excellent record of the activities of the school year. Several important changes have contributed .toward improving the paper. Syndi- cated feature service provides cartoons and comic strips. A name plate ofrsimple and dignihed form has been substituted for the more ornate one of previous years. The change to a six page paper, and the use of more cuts, have also contributed toward making a better ORANGE AND BLACK. Interviews with Lew Sarett, Richard Halliburton, Mario Cappelli and Rex Elton Fair have introduced the East High students to men who are prominent in music or in literary circles. From the issue on the hrst day of school to the hnal issue of the year, the staff of the ORANGE AND BLACK has endeavored to serve East High students and friends in the most efficient way, to encourage worthwhile activities, and to reflect in the mirror of the press the life of the school.

Membership in this society is dependent upon scholarship, journalistic activity, and recommendation by prin- cipal and sponsor. The purpose of the society is to instill in its members high stand- ards ol' journalistic ethics and scholarships, and to encourage clear thinking and forceful writing. The members of the East lligli Chapter attended the Regional convention at Iowa City last fall, where they heard excellent speakers and discussed their problems, receiving many helpful suggestions. They have sponsored a journalism discussion group to help train reporters for next year's staff. Page 67 XOQRNG E 8. BLHCKKL - Inter Romanos et Legiones Caesaris OFFICERS Imperator . ....

Our programs have consisted of songs, puzzles, contests and inter- esting reports on Roman lives and customs. We have aimed to remember famous Romans by giving reports concerning them, on or near their birthdays. On the night of March ninth, we held a Roman Banquet to which all the hosts of Olympus attended. Aeneas with his followers and Caesar with his generals were also present. One and all went forth from the feast with the feeling that Rome and the Romans were not so unattainable after all. Page 68 ..-WDPFNGE 8 BLHCKJ' 7 XOQANGE a QLQCKX., X X Q We Thank You Much credit for the production of this annual belongs to many outside of the staff. The faculty have co-operated by allowing students Hfteen min- utes to read the ORANGE Awp BLACK paper, the hrst day of the subscrip- tion drive and by permitting numerous announcements to be made in their classes. Max Ryan gleefully accepted the request for aid in advertising, for without having to give any explanation or receiving any punish- ment, he could leave the school for the whole afternoon on many days. We certainly appreciate the writeups furnished by Francis Veach, Robert Kenney, Arlene Peters, Madeleine Rosenkrans, jane Becknell, and Lillian Entz, and what would Froggy have done if he had not been able to collect subscription money thru room representatives. When the engravers were impatiently calling for the pictures, Bob Wright and Herbert Oltrogge came to the rescue and helped us in printing, and with cartoons. V Without the aid of the Janitors little could have been accomplished. They spent many nights at the school, unlocking the building to permit us to work. To these and all others who have co-operated, the staiT gratefully extends its thanks.

In the violin division, Margaret Miller. Since there was no competition in the brass and woodwind divisions, Mary Pitts and Verjean Dilger went directly to the District Contest without Hurst partici- pating in the local.

East High hasua right to be proud of the work that has been accomplished in Music this year under the leadership of Miss Ullemeyer and Mr. Bennett. Many students have been receiving training from Miss Ullemeyer through the work in the Oriole, second girls' glee club, boys' glee club, mixed chorus and girls' sextette. The girls' glee clubs and soloists have sung at P. T. A. meetings, club meet- ings and in auditorium periods both in East and junior High. The outstanding production of the voice department this year was the Nativity, which has now become an annual event. As usual it was given the Sunday preceding the Christmas vacation, in the High School auditorium. This attracts people from many towns in the vicinity of Waterloo. Interest in instrumental music has increased this year, three orchestras having been conducted, the symphony, advanced and the second. V Although the band did not carry off honors in the contests, the members have worked faithfully and have played at both basketball and football games, helping to inspire both the rooters and the team. ln December our symphony orchestra gave a concert in order to raise funds for band uniforms and new instruments. One of the most interesting features of the concert was the Anvil Chorus. Two anvils were placed on each side of the stage and the sparks from them brilliantly lighted the darkened auditorium. A joint East and West High Orchestra and band concert was another interesting event of the year. lt is the hrst time that the two schools have united in any activity. One program was given at West High and the other at East High. Desire to win honors in the State Music Contest spurred the students interested in music to put forth every effort to win. ln the hrst round, at the District Contest held at Charles City, April 7, East High entered contestants in ten divisions and won four first places and hve seconds. Those receiving Hrst were: The Girls' Sextetg Nate Hackett, baritone soloist, Margaret Miller, violinistg The String Quartetg and the Orchestra. In the Regional Contest held at East High contestants were entered in six divisions. Those winning Hrst places were the String Quartet and Margaret Miller, violin contestant. At the state contest held in Iowa City, May 6, 7, and 8, East High again carried off honors. Margaret Miller and the Stringed Quartet each placed fourth while the orchestra placed hrst. The violin section of the orchestra was highly commended by the judges. Two awards were brought home, one given by the National Music Association and one by the University of lowa. These now rest proudly in the trophy case where all who pass may see. Page 75 x 'NOQRNG E 8' QLHCKKL-. 1 Mr. G. 'lf Bennett joined the liast lligh faculty in the fall of IOZ5. lle has a state-wide reputation as director ol' successlul orchestras and this year brought home two trophies as evidence of the Iirst place taken by our orches- tra at lowa City. The increased interest in liast lfligh in instrumental music is largely due to his efforts. lle has been prominent as a leader in State Music Organizations. MR. G. 'lf BENNETT Mr. Bennett has been ably assisted in his work by Miss Gilbert, who is teaching violin this year. Miss Gilbert graduated from Oberlin. The excellent showing ofthe violin section which was highly commended by the judges at Iowa City is due largely to her efforts. Miss Mildred Townsend and Evelyn Stover, who graduated lrom East lligh in IOZT have been teaching. Mildred Townsend teaching cello and bass instruments and livelvn Stover the woodwind instruments.

The program for the year was both varied and interestingg perhaps the most outstanding project being that of the erection of a puppet stage, and the presentation of a puppet play- Six Who Pass While the Lentils Boil. The play was given before the Masquers and also as a demonstration before the Primary Supervisors of Iowa State Teachers College. And, too, the Nlasquers furnish the nucleus of the castings for the Orange and Black, junior, and Senior Plays. This year the club presented a group of one-act plays instead of the usual three-act play. The plays were judged by Mrs. E. E. Magee, an able critic, and The Romancersn was awarded first place. We feel that we cannot consider this section as complete until some word has been said in recognition of our Dramatics coach, Miss Ruth Hiller. Miss Hiller is this year completing her nfth year in East High. She has worked untiringly to uphold East High's standards and has brought to us a deeper apprecia- tion of the better things of life as are portrayed through the drama.

A gentleman was visiting a lunatic asylum, and while walking on the grounds met a patient, to whom he said, Well, my good man, how did you get here? You see, sir, replied the lunatic, I married a widow with a grown- up daughter, and my father married that same stepdaughter of mine. That made my wife the mother-in-law of her father-in-law, and my father became my step-son. Then my step-mother, the daughter of my wife had a son, and that boy, of course, was my brother, because he was my father's song but he was also the son of my wife's stepdaughter, and therefore her grandson, that making me grandfather of my step-brother. My wife having had a son, my mother-in-law, the step-sister of my son, is also his grandmother, because he is her step-son's child, my father is the brother-in-law of my child, because his stepsister is my wife.

Henry VII was very fat, besides being a nonconformistf' The result of colonization in Elizabeth's reign was that Raleigh brought smoking into England, and had a bucket of cold water thrown on him, and that Drake discovered-potatoes around the world.

On the third day out the ship burst into flames. The fire was rapidly consuming the boat. All the passengers were appropriating the life preservers, life savers, and life boats. Pat stood by for a few minutes, watching the mad rush. Finally, perplexed and disgusted, he exclaimed: Well, if everybody is goin' to steal stuff off the ship, Oi'1l be gosh- durned if l don't get in on the stealin' myself.

The plan, which all students are familiar with, is built around sound advertising and merchandising principles and will positively bring results to the merchant if properly applied. Each one is given a receipt book upon which are entered all purchases that the student or his family makes during the contest at each of the listed business hrms. The list of hrms is limited as much as possible to one establishment along each line of business so as to give our advertisers all the benefit possible that can be derived from this plan. Forty-Eve business men approved of this plan and gave us their co-operation so that we of the Senior Class could successfully publish this annual as our farewell to the school and give the students a review of the school year of 1927 and 1928. The students co-operated with us by lending their support to carry out the plan. To them also we want to give credit because if the students do not take part in the contest, the plan gives no results to the adver- tisers and consequently does not do any more to help the business man than just a space ad. lt was the idea of the staff, that publishing the annual by the support of both business men and students, we might bring more sales and more customers to the stores of our advertisers, and also furnish the students with a better year book. To encourage the students to patronize the advertisers we are giving twenty prizes amounting to one hundred fifteen dollars to the twenty students with the record of the largest amounts purchased from these advertisers during the three months of the contest. We hope now, since the contest is over, that the following business men were pleased with the plan and if given the opportunity to get in on it again, will consider it a -paying proposition and a lucky opening for helping the annual and also for getting direct advertising results.
