Pnge21 The EASTERN T 4-wilvillbfffll Twenty-lllree PRESIDENTS ADDRESS The Cost of an Education Mister Toastmaster, Members of the Faculty and Classmates: A man of any experience who wishes to invest money, usually looks into the investment quite thoroughly before placing his money in the venture. He first looks up the men who are promoting it and any uncertainty about them will usually stop him at once. He next looks over the enterprise itself. If that satisfies him he looks lastly for the amount of returns it will bring. This will depend upon the cost. Naturally this last step is very important, especially in connection with the other two. Then when he finds the com- pany, the business, and the income satisfactory, he invests his money. We and our parents have made an investment. We have invested twelve years, and our parents have put in considerable money and worry. Vllhen we made this venture our parents looked into two oi the details-the people back of the enterprise and the kind of enterprise. They took chances on the last one. They did not consider it a very big risk, for they left it to us to make good, and like all parents thought their own particular children could not help being worth while. Our parents have done their duty on their side of the deal. The people in the enterprise, some of whom are with us today, are, we know by experi- ence, absolutely unquestionable. The getting of an education certainly is worthy. Then the only doubtful condition in this particular investment seems to be the class of January, 1923. Time, effort, entfgy, vast sums of money, and even human lives have been expended to bring us to this goal. Are we worth the expenditure? Can we make good? Can we give worthy returns on the investment? In order that we in this practical age can answer these questions we must know the cost, the details. lVhat is the cost of an education? At the word cost I can see dollars and cents springing into your mind. But, my friends, money is only one of the costs, and perhaps the smallest one. However, we shall take up the cost from the standpoint of the Al- mighty American Dollar. From the time we entered kindergarten, there have always been dollars and cents to pay to keep us going. For twelve long years we have been here. and some one else in most cases has met the bills. Clothes-what have they cost for each of us? How many suits have you had? How many dresses have you had in the last year? Multiply that by the twelve years you have been in school and then add the shoes, overcoats, and other garments that have been necessary and you will have an approximation of the cost of your clothes. What sacrifices have these occasioned? Vllhat has mother or father gone without each time so that you could have new clothes? Mother waited an- other year for that new dress she neededg father wore the shiny suit a while longer so that you could have what you wanted. How often do we ever stop to think that? clothes represent not only money, but sacrifice, hy some one who is dear to us. And have you ever gone hungry? Have you missed more than one meal, except as you were busy on your owiratfairs? Have you ever had to go without your sundaes? Very seldom, if ever. Yes, you have been fed, clothed, housed, and cared for. This has all cost money. That last suit of clothes, or that dress, at a fancy price does not keep you warmer than a cheaper one. But you wanted it. You have,had many luxuries. Perhaps too many, nevertheless you have enjoyed them. If each of us should estimate 354,000.00 as the cost to our parents of our twelve years of school, it would not be excessive. Then the money invested on this The EASTERN Pnyf22 Nineteen Twenty-three class of one hundred and twenty-six members is over S500,000. If your parents had invested this 54,000 and had set you to work besides how much money would they be worth now? Besides not being a debit as you are now, you would be a credit to the family pocketbook. But in this cost we have made no plan for buildings, equipment, and teachers. VVhat do they cost? Here in Detroit it costs great sums of money. Where does this money come from? From the taxes your fathers and mothers and other people pay to the city and state. If it were not for the general taxes how many of us would be here today? Not very many. just think what is paid out every day by the Board of Education for teachers, jauitors, repairs, not to say anything of the interest on the money invested. That is just one of the items of your expense. However, great as these expenditures are, they are small compared with what a similar education would cost in any other country than America. But our being here today represents costs much greater than all these vast sums. These other costs come mostly from the home, for there are the people that are more than ordinarily interested in us. They are the ones who went without so that we might have this or that when we wanted it. I do not be- lieve there are many of us in this class, who did not cause some one at home some hardships, that some fancy of ours might be realized. But we did not hear about it, for our fathers and mothers freely and gladly gave. Perhaps when you bought that last overcoat it was mother who quietly went with- out a coat, or perhaps it was father, the same one you call the old man be- hind his back, who thought, Oh, well, this hat and pair of shoes will last a little longer even though they are shabby. NVhy did they do this? NVhy did they deny themselves? They wanted their boy or girl to be like the others, for whom, in their turn, like sacrihces were being made. XVere we always grateful? Did we express our appreciation? Well, maybe, but often we were doing little things to make father or mother worry. It may have seemed trivial to us, something like letting our marks go down, skipping school, or some other silly affair. It cost worry, nevertheless. That may be why father or mother is getting gray. Every graduating class the length and breadth of this fair land is cost- ing money at home and to the city and to the state. In them are the sacri- hces, the hopes, and the fears of their families, but even these costs, great as they are, are not all. For back of all this present day expenditure there have been many ,priceless things given for the cause of education. She and Free- dom have always walked hand in hand. They are inseparable twins, as in- separable as the famous Siamese sisters. Neither can live alone. An edu- cated people will not tolerate tyranny nor will tyranny tolerate an educated people. The struggles of these two giants, Education and Tyranny, one with real power, the other with fearsome name, that has lasted many long cen- turies and has stained many countries with blood, are almost ended in triumph of Education in the United States. The South American Republics have excellent forms of government. but the people, through lack of education, are not able to run them success- fully. The Pilgrims on the other hand, even before they lauded, planned for both popular government and popular education. lf you unroll the history of education, what tragedies you will Find! Many lives have been sacrificed on the Altar of Freedom. but Freedom has gone steadily ahead. The bloody and terrifying French revolution was only an episode. Man after Ula!! has met death for true education. Many more have spent their days in dungeons. Socrates drank the poison hemlock be- cause of his belief. Tyndale was persecuted, Columbus was ridiculedg all new ideas have advanced over hot plowshares, Education has never been cheap. Against Tyranny, against Superstition, and against Ignorance, it has waged PngeE'3 The EASTERN N inelecn Twenly-llaree fierce conflicts. In spite of hardships, cruelty, and death it has forged ahead. It has cost all this to bring us to this day. just consider the cost from this awesome standpoint. It is immense in this one respect alone. It is now nearing the time when our worth is to be tried, when the amount of dividend is to be made public. Are we a good investment? Shall we be worthy of the cost? BRUCE Gmuaurr. VALEDICTORIAN ESSAY The Imperishables Suppose you were suddenly given Aladdin's magic lamp, and told you might choose a few attributes and conditions with which to live all the rest of your life, what would you choose? Would you choose wealth, which could give you automobiles, houses, private yachts, and glittering jewels? Would you choose social position, with the opportunity to lead the rich and fashionable society of the world? Do you think this leadership would make you any happier, or the world any better? Would you spend all of your time in frivolous pleasures, in dancing, eating, and drinking, and making merry with the wasters and butterliies of the world? No, if you were wise you would choose the joys of life: the things that moth and rust cannot destroy. You would choose the imperishablesg those enduring attributes and qualities which, like the mountains, the sun, the moon, and the stars, are everlasting. For these imperishables you would strive and sacrifice, you would guard these treasures with your very life. VVhat greater jewels can a man gain than reliance, friendship, truth, and character? These ought to be the immediate jewels of your soul. Wealth and social position are not necessary in life. On the spur of the moment you might choose them, because their glitter pleases, but there is little lasting joy in them. Reliance, friendship, truth, and character make for our own happiness and the happiness of others. Now, you may wonder just how these qualities are connected with school life. The beginning of our high school career is almost as the beginning of a new existence. We are brought closer to real life, and realize more fully what is re- quired of us in that life. Reliance, or responsibility, was greatly increased when we first entered high school. VVe were given lessons to prepare, sometimes refer- ences to look up and give reports on. Perhaps we were not given a detailed ex' planation of some task we were told to do. For what reason? To give us a chance to show our initiative and responsibility. At all times we were en- couraged to use our own judgment. If we were sincere in our work, and cultivated responsibility when a chance was given, there is no doubt that we have a portion of the foundation on which successful lives are built. We might compare our lives to a young and tender plant. You can shape a plant to grow crooked and ugly, or straight and beautiful. Its course depends on the beginning of its growth. Our High School life has also given us another sparkling gem to set in our crown of life. Life without friendship would be like a body without a soul. During our school days, probably as in no other time, we are brought into close contact with many classes and kinds of people. It is then that we have our chance to choose our friends. If our ideals are high, we nat- urally go with people of the same nature. There is always a chance of bettering ourselves, but if our ideals are low, we choose friends who are not worth while. Samuel johnson says: If a man does not make new acquaintances as he advances through life, he will soon find himself left alone. A man should keep his friendship in con- The EASTERN Pagc24 N invleen. Twenty-lhree' W Y stant repair. It is true, we should make new acquaintances and friends, but we should consider quality more important than quantity. Another fundamental attribute demanded by the world, and one closely related to character, is truth. Without truth, the reputation of a person cannot withstand the constant demands which life puts upon it. Truth is absolutely necessary for the continuation of any undertaking, and is the pivot on which swings all the rest of our character. During our years in higlrschool, our character is being strengthened. VVe do not always realize this at the time, but a little thought will convince us that character building did not lack attention. Every day we were shown in some manner the difference between right and wrong. Questions con- cerning the whole school were brought to our attention, and we learned to see the right side of them. In some instances, the time of class periods was used to give us a clearer conception of ideas of right and wrong. In every way we had many an opportunity to strengthen our character. It is possible for a person to enjoy a good reputation for a long time even when he is bad. Reputation is thc quality by which he is known to the world. A far stronger accomplishment is character. That is what a person actually is. And let us always remember that Character is made up of small duties faithfully performed-of self-denials, of self-sacrifices, of kindly acts of love and dut '. WVl?at more could a person wish than reliance, friendship, truth, and character with which to live? Could anything bring him more happiness? Would wealth and social position give him more joy? They could not give a man friends, or give him the pleasant memories of home ties. Who needs tive thousand pounds to live, Is quite as poor as he that needs but five. Riches cannot give us that glorious feeling of being glad that we are alive. They cannot teach us the simple, and yet the loveliest, things of life. They do not help us to appreciate the blue of the skies, or the blossom- ing trees, the brown of the upturned furrow, or the song of the woodland bird. All the gold in the world cannot buy one true and loyal friend-friend- ship is not bought and sold. Truth, too, is a virtue beyond the value of rubies. If one's character is buttressed with reliance and truth, and en- riched with sincere iriends, he has found the Imperishables of life-he has found wisdom and happiness.

The motley crowd swarming here and there, awaiting the great national event, the Olympic games. Greece held no greater honor for a man than to be winner in these Olympic games. ,Each entrant. eager to do his best in order that he may bring glory to himself, to his family and to his city, is summoned before the king. The young men now offer wines and other sacrifices to the gods from whom they ask assistance in order that they may succeed in their games and races. After these ceremonies, the young men are 05-to win or to fail. In the same manner are we entering a contest after four years of training. lVe are beginning our Marathon race which will test our sinews and demand each ounce of our acquired strength. NVe may be able to make a. ten-yard dash, but this race depends upon our staying quality. This is more than a game whose, sacrifices are wines and rewards are mere laurel wreaths. We Page25 TheEASTERN Nineteen Twenty-three are entering the game of life-a game which lasts not only one day as did the Olympic games, but one that will be played continually during every hour of our existence. Our sacrifices are greater-much greater than those of the men of the Olympic games. For four years these men have given up many pleasures in order that they may be lit for these supreme tests. VVe, too, have given up minor pleasures during our high school race of four years. More than this, we have needed the sacrifices of others to get us even thus far. We have needed our parents' struggles and efforts to give us this necessary training. We have tried, in our youthful ignorance, our teachers' patience as they taught us. The laurel wreath was the reward of the Olympic winner, but the re- wards which we seek are of much greater worth, even than the honor paid to the Greeks. In this game of life we may attain wealth. Wealth is the medium through which we may enjoy many of the luxuries this world affords. If we do not attain wealth we may consider ourselves winners if we attain the esteem of our friends-esteem is a subtle quality-which wealth cannot buy-which is given to those who have proven themselves loyal and trust- worthy. One of the most valuable rewards that can come to us in this game of life is friendship. It is won by loyalty and devotion to those with whom we associate. To be rich in friends is to be poor in nothing, is indeed true. Our success or failure is not fully determined at the end of a day or two as in the Olympic games, but will be determined after many years have elapsed-even after our lives are spent. The spectators at the Olympic games saw the beginning and the end of the games and races, but the spectators who today see us begin our game of life may already have gone to that undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveller returns before our contest is over. But we shall never be without spectators for we shall meet them all through life. The greatest praise that they can give to us at the end of our race is that We have been Masters of our Fate and the Captains of our Souls. Vroux Tmwn. SENIOR SPADE ORATION The Miners Once more we COIIIC to the school spade. WVe received it looking almost new. But, if there is any of the blade left, it is not our fault. For there is no doubt that this implement of hard digging could never symbolize a class better than it does ours. Why, we have dug early and late! Many teachers here, who have known us for the past four years, will bear witness that we have done our share of hard work! Summing up what we have done in the past four years, we might liken 'ourselves to miners, who dig out the minerals stored in the bowels of the earth. So have we labored in the depths of studies, and extracted the essence of academics. We early learned that the richest gold lies beneath the hard pan, and can be acquired only with great effort, difficulty, and danger. We always wanted this gold, but hated to work for it. Silver,' too, was hard to get, and only the earnest, hard working miner could always get it. Copper was not far clown, so many a miner, who might have had silver, was per- fectly contented with copper. Almost on the surface lay the iron ore, so that mining for iron required little time and small effort. Those who leaned on their shovels and rested most of the time had to be content with the baser minerals. We have been like miners in other respects, for we, too, have gone on fl Tl1eEASTERN Page26 N ineleen Tu.-enlylhree strikes. When the lessons were long and the marks too low, we let down on the studies and spent our spare times on pleasures. But we learned that to strike is to lose time, for, when we return to work, we had to dig overtime, with small pay. Often we have needed safety devices, especially the miner's electric torch, to guide us through dark tunnels, where in these murky places our teachers stood goading us on to do better work. XVe thought the hours long and the work heavy, but now, to our surprise, we are truly sorry to leave the old mine, and we feel sure that we would dig gold if we could only stay. We hate to give up the old spade, but we'll add our colors, the maze and the blue, as an incentive to following classes. The real signifi- cance of these colors and this spade is that they bind us to the past, present and future of Eastern High School. This class has been blessed with such an unusual number of diggers that we were afraid the spade would be worn out long before the end of the term, but there is a semblance of its real self left. This spade will no longer serve our purpose, as we will need a much larger one for future digging, so we present you, the representative of June, '23, with this symbol dear to all graduates, hoping this pledge will bind you more closely to us, and both of us closer and closer as days go by, to all graduates of Eastern High School. Rrci-:Ann HOLDEN. History of Class, January, 1923 As one who con's at evening O'er an album all alone, And muses on the faces Of friends that he has known. So I tum the leaves of fancy, 'Till in shadowy designs, I find the smiling features of Old Ikstem Friends of mine. These friends, my classmates of January, 1923, were gazing out upon the Sea of Life-hailing the training ship Eastern. A motley crew are they. and laughing, for they know not of the future ports of mystery for which they are to embark, nor do they careg that mysterious land of the dead, Latin, or the perilous port of Algebra, or the seven seas of English in which many have been drown'd where late they danced before, hold no hidden danger for this unthinking crew. Ostensibly, the journey to this mysterious land was to be made in four years, but many who were with us then are not with us now. They have been left at various ports: Home, Business, and some at the end of Life's journey. Now, I wonder if you would be interested to learn of some of our ex- periences on this voyage. Well do I remember that wonderful first day: all was joyous confusion when we learned that we were to take a trip on The Eastern. There before us in the harbor lay the majestic ship flying this gallant Orange and Black at her highest mast head. Who had not heard of the wonderful Captain La Verne B. Mann, and what he was doing for the ship? Out of a boat twenty-two years old he was making a ,modern high-powered, up-to-date vessel, and was succeeding so well that our parents were glad to see us embark under his command. Being the latest arrivals, we were put into the steerage and put to cleaning things in the hold and dusting the logs of ancient lives past. Under Mr. Vkfaterhury as first mate we flew many green flags, symbols, our ene- mies hinted, of our freshness. We green sailors chose as our leader Dennis Puge27 The EASTERN i Nim-lean Twenty-lhrec Cooper, the greenest of our crew. Our worst enemies were the third class passengers, who, our captain told us, were Sophomores, or Sophs, as the upper classes called them. Strange stories were revealed to us of a horrible sea monster named mid-semester, who came twice every year and gobbled up green freshmen. We spent many sleepless nights in anxious watching for the terrible creature. The monster came, but to our great relief and surprise many more third class passengers were taken than steerage. After a while we were moved to better quarters and given different things to do. Our positions had risen to one of responsibility and from the elevated height we saw many more of these bothersome Freshmen board the ship. We racked our brains to think up some horrible stories to tell them. We were then given second class berths in the good old boat. Our thoughts were wholly occupied with building up the ship's log and record- ing events which will be looked upon as history. First class cabins and the training is about o'er. All hands in prepara- tion! For we are now about to test that which we have gained from the hold and forecastle of the good ship. We notice with increasing surprise the youth and small size of each Freshman group. We truly recognize how eminently fitting it was for Seniors to predominate as leaders of the entire crew. Of course, it is quite possible that not every group of Seniors were as well fitted for this position as the January, 1923. We, who were very anxious to put ourselves down prominently in the history of our ship, with much care and serious thought selected Bruce Carbutt as our lead. These last few months, with the most illustrious crew of 1923, have been months of much glory for old Eastern. Her renown has spread quickly over the vast ocean, and by mysterious means other ships have heard of her great skill in a game called football. No other ship could boast of such strength as this mystery ship, and they were all afraid and kept at a distance after once they were defeated. These last few days have been times of eventful happenings-plays, parties, and many social functions, and now we have gathered at a farewell banquet, our last social gathering as a class. We have reached the harbor of our port, Graduation, and other ships can be seen about us gliding slowly by. At last we have come to the end of a four years' journey. It has been a great voyage. In spite of sea sick- ness, terror of the storms, and hard work, we have never regretted for one moment that we boarded the ship Eastern. VVhen we are left on the deck out of sight of the Orange and Black banner, we notice many ships inviting us to become passengers within their busy cabins. Fear and terror strike us when we think of boarding a large ship named Business filled with cold and stern looking strangers. While we wait, other ships slip slowly into port, among them one very interesting and noisy vessel called College. Most of us choose this ship for our next voyage, although we lose many friends on the Business and Commerce boats. VVe have parted from our friends, waved farewell at old Eastern, and now we are ready to meet the dangers of the next voyage with as much bravery and cheerfulness as before. I have read you our ship's log. All its pages are written full. NVQ have not the prophet's eye to see the future. The History of the class of january, 1923, is finished. Thou, too, sail on O ship of Ours, Our hopes, our fears are all with Theeg Our hopes triumphant over our fears Are all with Theel Are all with Thee! FAITH McCui.LocH.

Mr. Toastmaster, members of the faculty, classmates'- Let us assume that the time is 1950. Not long ago I happened to be looking through a history of the prom- inent people of Michigan, the beginning of which did not particularly inter- est me. NVhen I arrived, however, at the period between 1930 and 1950, many of the names seeming familiar to me, I paid very close attention to them. I found, to my great surprise, that these people had all graduated from Eastern High School, Detroit, in my own class of january, 1923. Desiring to learn more, I referred to a book called Who's NVho and What's What in Detroit. I was very much surprised to find how many of my old chums had done great things, so, where I was able, I obtained separate biographies of them. I have brought with me today the book called Who's Who and What's What in Detroit, from which I shall read short snatches, and I have also brought the few biographies which I was for- tunate enough to obtain. If Mr. Evans and Mr. Shultz will please bring forward the books that the public library has so kindly loaned me for the occasion, I shall read PGW29 TI1eEASTERN Nineteen Twenty-three from them. fMr. Evans and Mr. Shultz bring forward a table on top of which are numerous books of different sizes and descriptions, and place the table in front of Prophet. Prophet takes up first book, and readsj t'The first one contains the life and words of our class president, Bruce Garbutt, who was one of Detroit's most accomplished lawyers. His great- est work was a terribly complicated murder case on which he spent four- teen years of tireless energy in proving exactly how, when, and where the crime was committed. At the conclusion of his years of labor, however, the murdered man was found to be alive and well. The shock sent Bruce to a home for the old and feeble minded. The next book that I have here contains the life and adventures of Miss Viola Chubb, who for years was the daring aviatrix in American State Fairs. After achieving national renown in this line, she was selected to be general foreman of the most important aerial transportation line in America. Her duty was to tour about in a monoplane to see that all was running correctly. One of her most interesting experiences was the following: One day, as she was speeding along over a large body of water, she beheld, far below her, a curious craft floating along on the surface of the quiet lake. She became so interested that she completely forgot her aeroplane, and, on leaning a little too far out, lost her balance, and before long found herself floating downward through space. When she came to, she was lying aboard a small craft and Dick Holden was bending over her. Explanations brought out the fact that Dick had such an affection for water that he had resolved to spend the rest of his life aboard a raft. Viola was safely landed on shore. She is now a teacher of dancing and penmanship in a large Detroit private school. The title of this next book is The VVonder Book of Rubber. It cone cerns the life and works of Robert Trittin, who immediately after his grad- uation from High School, traveled, by band car, to South America, where he invented a way to manufacture rubber from cocoanut trees. It was chiefly his extensive knowledge of Physics and Chemistry that enabled him to do this dinicnlt task. Nobody, however, seemed' to realize his genius, so he could Find no market for his article. Accordingly, he has changed his occupation and, in company with Ray Garbarini, has become a missionary to the Congo Lands, Africa, where the two have done remarkable work in reforming the natives by singing to them, ' The next book is really a story of Belle Isle, past and present. How- ever, two of the members of our class, the inscparables Louise Beard and Helen Palmer, had much to do with its improvement. These two energetic young ladies persuaded the city to dump all its old tin cans, broken bottles, and other rubbish into the river about Belle Isle, so as to increase the area nf the island. Their work has been so successful that they have nearly succeeded in Filling up the Detroit river. So great has grown their zeal that they tour the country urging everyone to live as much as possible on canned goods and to ship the empty cans back to Detroit so that they may be used to further their work in filling up the river. The two modest ladies, when not touring the country, reside entirely upon Belle Isle, where Louise can he found at almost any time in company with the crocodiles, while Helen is contented only when playing with the seals in the aquarium. The last person whose biography I was able to obtain is our old friend Herbert Shultz. There are three volumes on his life, the second of which I was unable to obtain. The first one contains a detailed account of his good deeds before 1922. fprophet holds up very tiny book.l Since this prophecy has to deal with the future, I shall not read from this. The secs ond book, which has to do with his High School career, as 'I said before, is missing. However, there must have been a great change in his life dur- TheEASTERN Pngc30 N im-teen Tuwrly-three ing this period, judging from the size of the third book, which contains an account of his life and doings from the time he left High School until now. fI'rophet opens huge, unwieldly bookj I would like very much to read the whole book to you, but I am afraid that we shall not have quite time enough, so I shall just state some of the most important things that I noticed in reading through it. Immediately after graduation, this worthy gentleman was chosen to represent the United States in an important economic conference in Europe. After holding this position for two years he had straightened Ollt all the troubles of the world, and everything ran in harmony. His birthday is now celebrated as a Na- tional holiday. At the close of this position he became Sultan of Turkey, which work he enjoyed immensely for three years. However, at the end of this time, he became tired of his position, so he returned to Detroit, where he was elected mayor for three terms. He next served several years as president of Mexico, then five years at jackson, and then as president of the United States. He is now a Professor of civics and economics in one of the largest colleges in America. It is also rumored that he supports a Beard That is thc last of the biographies that I was able to obtain. 1 shall now resort to the book, YVho's VVho and VVhat's Vllhat in De- troit. just skipping through it rapidly, I shall tell one or two facts con- cerning sotne of the names that I have noticed. Corinne Drollinger has brought great repute to Detroit through her remarkable violin work. She is one of the star performers in Ziegfield's Follies here, where she appears with a swarm of trained Hees and mosquitos, which she charms with her music. Also in the concert line is Gertrude Becker. Since she had only re- ceived 28 ones during her High School career, the colleges would not admit her, so she sought consolation by going on the stage, where her voice and dancing ability have brought her great fame and fortune. Her name has been changed to Zella Tickledinker. She and Miss Drollinger have often appeared together under the title of Flopsy-top and Tickledinkerf' in a novel act composed of singing and dancing and trained flees, which has proved a great favorite with the American people. To Emil Voelker, famous engineer, goes the credit of building a gigantic bridge connecting Grosse Pointe and Canada built across Lake St. Clair. This was one of the world's greatest engineering feats, as it has three car lines, two railways, two roadways on which there is walking space, and also space for tricycles. In the center is a large amusement park. A statue of Emil stands at the approach to the American side. In the political line we find Mildred Smith and Don Cooper. Mildred was the first woman mayor of Detroit, and is now aspiring to become governor of Michigan. It was Donald's great influence mainly that placed her where she now is, so she will reward him, in time, so 'tis rumored, with her hand. Next we come to XVm. J. Evans, better known as Bill, who, after graduating, journeyed to Alaska. where he took up automobile salesmanship. Later he became interested in oil wells, and in a very short time found him- self a multi-millionaire. After retiring, his attentions were drawn to music. He studied at home and abroad, and is now a teacher of piano in one of the most celebrated schools of music in America. I noticed that Emil Van Slembrouck true to his nature, went into the mountains, where he is living a life of solitude and bliss, a hermit of the wilderness. jean Henselwood became interested in the Salvation Army. and has long been one of their hardest workers. She has done relnarkable work for this 4 Pagc31 The EASTERN i ' Ninelrcn Twenly-Urn-r organization, especially in conducting street concerts, where she uses her beautiful bass voices to great advantage. Along the medical lines we find Marshall MacCausland, Lloyd Thomas, and Benjamin Cooper: the first, a doctor of literatureg the second, doctor of philosophy: and the third a veterinary surgeon, all contributing much to- wards the welfare of the world. Genevieve jones was Queen of Egypt. She was then the greatest power of Europe for some time, and all the continent was at her feet. Yet she longed for Detroit, so she at last returned to her native city, where she is now a teacher of domestic science and singing at a Detroit High School. David Cooper Vokes, after achieving great fame as a lawyer, is now the head of Detroit's largest dog and cat hospital, and has done much to estab- lish a private home for crippled and needy dumb animals. john Graham is now chief editor of the Fashions for the women's depart- ment of the Detroit News. jack Nvheelihan is the head stenographer, and also on the staff we find Opal Doods as sporting editor, Florence Zendcr as Society editor, and Margaret Pagel editing the experience columc. This paper has reached such a degree of excellence that it has outdone all the other papers in the city, and is now Detroit's only newsaper. LeRay Abt is now instructor of physics at one of Detroit's most promi- nent high schools. Lack of time prevents my mentioning more .... And so the jester writes a class prophecy! But. in reality, who is there that can roll back the clouds of time? VVho is there that can actually foretell our destinies-Jour futures? Not one! No one knows the future. No one knows to what extent the hopes and ex- pectations of our class members may be realized. Some of them, beyond a doubt, will do great things, and distinguish themselves in the eyes of man- kind, bnt most of them, probably, will be the quiet, peace-loving people that really make the name America stand for what it does, lVe must always remember that it is not the great, and prominent people that constitute a sucessful nation. For more it is the lesser known, perhaps. yet law-abiding, industrious citizens, who give their hearts and souls to the benefit of humanity, who do not shirk their everyday duties, who think always of others-that make the world worth living in. lVe need leaders. it is true, but they could do nothing without the help and co-operation of the followers. who are always waiting and ready to do their share in helping to make the world a better place. Life is so short. and so uncertain, that we cannot too soon bring into use what little it can yield. ln every man there is a magnet, and in that thing which he can do best there is a lodestone. Not every vessel that sails upon the sea can bring back gold. Shall it then rot in the harbor? No! Give rather its sail to the winds! It is sure to bring back something. Likewise let every man go out upon the Sea of Life to seek his fortune. True, we cannot all bring back gold, but for every one of us there is a fortune, Be it as it may, whether we be rich or poor, prominent or unknown, let us ask only that we may play the parts of men and women, and he worthy representatives of our school, and of our families. Always remember-play fair! Do your part- For, when the One Great Scorer comes to write against your name, He writes, not that you won or lost, but how you played the game. The End.

A good drive soaring gradually above the fair, and dropped onto velvety closesclipped grass. Thus an excellent drive and an excellent lie for the second shot. This is a fair beginning, with a sand pit and bunker safely left behind some fifty yards. And so starts the game, But had that shot. for some inconceivable reason, ended in the pit, de- pending on a short costly mashie out, the whole game might have been quite different. If the player fears all hazards and imagines each drive to end in a funk, he stands little show of success. This game depends immeas- urably on the individual's attitude, and in his confidence in his own ability. Not that the cocky boastful player will have birdies to his credit, neces- sarily, but, without a doubt, he will play a better game than the timorous, self-conscious golfer who fears alike the bunker and the amused glances of the twosome ahead. In any game, and the fact is we all are playing a game every day, this same mental hazard is prominent and must be downed. Success depends of course on a courageous determination to get there 3 success must be backed by an enormous amount of I can get there and I will. When a fellow leaves high school he must be on his own -whether he goes to college or begins seriously to work. He has to rely on his own merits and it will take plenty of sand at times to produce adequate proof that he has merits. He must be able to meet situations that are new and bafflingly different from the simple experiences he has previously known: and to meet these successfully, he must know no mental hazards in his game. There is a vast difference between one who has a lot of nerve, which is a disagreeable quality, with a surface of boastfulness, and the one who sets his chin with a determination to get there because nothing can stop him. The latter is the one who wins: the other is the conceited parasite who hangs on through self-advertisement and audacity. Unadulterated conceit is no virtue, though used sparingly and with brains it is known as self-confidence. The game of success is a great game, and even a beginner will be a winner if he determines that there are no mental hazards. L,uvizi-:NCB Laonmm, June, 1923. The Va ledictory To children the rainbow is always a mystery. Perhaps out of this mystery has grown the old story of the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. What dreams we have had of that wonderful pot of gold! What pleasures would we buy with its shining coins if we could only reach its end! We see in this glowing arch only beauty and its reward of gold. But the rainbow with its radiant colors is more than that: it is a bow of promise that after storms and sorrows the sun shall shine again. Rainbows of promise always arch over us. At their end always rests a pot of gold-not gold that can be measured on jewelry scales, but gold :ihat is a symbol, too, of the precious rewards that shall come to us for work well one. Page5I TlxcEASTERN Nineteen Twenty-llarre All our lives are arched with rainbows, for each time after the tears of defeat and the darkness of discouragement we shall see the rainbow of hope that brings us our pot of gold-gold far richer than mine has yet furnished. Only by service and struggle and suffering shall we see through our tears the radiant rainbows of life. And there is the satisfaction of accomplishment and in the joy of achieve- ment we shall find our gleaming gold! Now, as we stand between saying farewell to our Alma Mater and entering into our new sphere in life, we wonder what form our pot of gold will assume. Have we employed our life tlms far, in such a manner as to make our search for our treasure an easy one? Or, have we spent our time musing over the brightest side of the rainbow, ignoring the darker, more serious side as much as possible? As we linger here for a few moments in the blended light of memory and hope, we are sure of some things. The final discovery of our pot of gold depends upon ourselves. No one can give us this pot of gold. Vile must Find it by hard work. Our success depends on the use we make of the gifts and powers we possess, upon the worthiness of our aims and purposes-upon our fidelity-and upon our love, belief, and practice of the truth. If our training thus far has given us ideals of earnestness, truth, and honor, it has given us the greatest helps towards our pot of gold. We have only the foundation of learning as yet, but they are good founda- tions and well laid. It will depend upon us to make the super-structure strong. enduring, honorable, and beautiful. The world is indifferent to us, but it needs us and has a place for us if we can claim it our ourselves. Fortune is a lazy Goddess She will never come to you. It may not be an exalted or a conspicuous place that each of us gets, acclaim and honors will not await us allg not a name in this class of 1923 may ever be known to fame or live in history, but in the sight of God there is a greatness which each of us may surely attain if we but do our duty as we see it. Rainbow of promise! What shall they grind us! To only a few shall come acclaims and plaudits. He sings to the wide world, She to her nestg In the nice ear of nature, Which song is the best? It is simply the greatness of a good and true life-one that we all can live- one that makes the most and the best of passing opportunities, that we must at- tain. So, when we have followed our rainbow to its end and have exploited the contents of our pot of gold we shall find its sure and sufficient reward in the con- sciousness that we have done our duty. We must be then, true to ourselves. to our age. and to our country, and God: true to the high school in which we have been trained and to obligations imposed by the culture which we have received from it. We have the chance to begin anew and to enter into our new life with a fresh determination. lVe have seen many rainbows and have found during the course of our high school life at least one pot of gold whose contents will aid us in our search for a more important one. But, in our enthusiasm over our new pot of gold we must not forget that we find our reward only after we have seen the sun shine into rainbows through our tears: Yesterday now is a part of forever. Bound up in a she:-if which God holds tight With glad days and sad days and had days Which never, shall visit more with their bloom and their blight. Gumrs O'I-Inna. Tl:-EASTERN p ,A Niiwtecrl Ti4'z'ril,v-Uireet ' 7' i Gmini? Spade Oration H. lMr, Toastmaster, members of the faculty and fellow students of Eastern ' ig iz Many speeches have been brought before this most august assemblage and no doubt many are beginning to weaken under the terrific onslaughts of battalions of grandiloquent words. However, I feel it to he my ditty to present the challenge of the 12-A class together with this spade to the fair and fortunate representative of the next graduating class. XVe may say that this select member of our juniors is indeed fortunate to enjoy the rare privi- lege of being present at these ceremonies, This occasion will shine out the best among the brilliant days of her existence, and the recollection of this proud day will be forever enshrined in her memory. Think of any uninitiated one being here among those of us. the class of June. 1923, who are ordained for higher things! This class as you are aware is, without doubt the great- est assemblage of wit, talent, and knowledge ever graduated not only from Eastern, but from any school whatsoever. NVit? Nile see its scintillating in all the words spoken by the Seniors. lVe have heard its tintinabulation in every senior meeting, while the faculty declares that we have been joys to them. But modesty forbids me to tell you all they have said to us and about us. NVe have lightened the work of our noble faculty to such an extent that our teachers have declared us to be their salvation. Many of the bcst jokes are due to the irrepressible and plentiful springs of wit concealed within this Senior body. Talent? NVe are the very quintessence of talent: athletic, scholastic. and social, The ability of this class in athletics is so well known that it is unnecessary to say anything further. Scholastically speaking, this class has no equal, for no other class has been given so many one's and two's. Our social talent is the very pick of the country, for instance, Gus Zielke tof unrivaled abilityl. Dot Armstrong and socially prominent Carle Cziske and Earl Behrens. Think of the social lights that have glowed brightly about Eastern for four years who are about to give the benefit of their com- panionship to the world at large. No one realizes better than we what our departure means to the school. lf you have tears prepare to shed them now as this, the greatest of East- ern's classes, goes out. XYc know only too well that our juniors have no recommendations, but we are powerless. The world demands our services so we can not tarry here, XYe must leave the conduct of our school in the hands of untrained and ignorant 12-B's with the hope that they will at least do their best to approach our noble group in standards of wit, talent and learning. Our modesty is such that we can say little of our merits for our motto has always been. Let another praise thee. On this account, Miss junior. we are hampered in trying to point out to you, our successors, the fact that you can not possibly hope to equal this most illustrious and brilliant class. But with all your shortcomings and these are many-we are forced to trust you with our heritage which is this spade. Do you realize, Miss DeYrics, that we are only joking in all this nou- sense? XYe are like the boy going through the graveyard at midnight, who whistled to keep up his courage, in that we, too, are joking to keep up our courage on this. our last day at Eastern. XVe do hate to leave the school and we are proud of its traditions. One of these is this spade with its many colors which represents the spirit of past classes, the spirit of Eastern, a spirit of unity, loyalty, faith. and determination. ' And so to you, january class of 1924, we give this honored spade. With the giving of this symbol we transfer to you the privileges that have been ours for lialf a year and the guardianship of the traditions and honor of our school. May you remember that you are sons and daughters of Eastern! Mav you bring honor and glory to her fair name! ' - Dos MURPHY.

A fleet of ships of rainbow hue, Glide silently into the hoyg Ships made of hoary, lichened wood, lVith sails of rose and misty gray. A bold and gorgeous fleet of ships, Vilhieh years ago put out to sea To seek a far, enchanted port, And set their sails most eagerly. lVith sides of gleaming silver bright, Sails snowy white and ropes of gold: They rode the frothing, hillowing waves- They were like Spanish gallenns old. Though some few ships were led astray, By dreams of a great glory bright: Yet many ships kept on their way, Led on by a celestial light. They've stopped at ports along the way, And met experiences newg They've also made a host of friends, VVho've proved themselves both tried and t rue, But now a port comes into view, NVith shroudiug mist before it hung, Which sways and disappears into The glory of the setting sun.

You ask what are these ships so fair, These fairy boats of mystery? They are the fair and gallant barks Which you and I put out to sea. They are our dearest treasures rare. Our hopes, our happiness, which we, As children small, put out to sail Ou life's tempestuous sea. VVe've reached this port, but just to This port of Graduation Day: For like those fairy ships so bright, VVe're eager to be on our way. rest, VVe're here to rest for a short time. And then to each farewell we'll say, And when our orders come to go, We'll set our sails and sail away. Out o'er the oceau's bosom deep, Out over life's uncharted seas: VVatch over our small boats of life. Dear Father of our Destiniesl lVe do not ask for all bright days, But when the trials of life shall come. We pray our ships be staunch and strung, And at the end come safely home. Al.lCTHE CZESCHINSKY. TheEASTERN YYY F P09654 Nineteen Twenty-three' 'v Salutatory CRing Lardner as a Modelj Knowing your fondness for the greatest masterpieces of literature, I done my best. I got Ring Lardncr, America's greatest master of style, to help me out. Here I go! Well, folks, to commence, I am the beginning of this program, not the end, so I will be brief, which fct I hope the speakers who follow me will note and be guided by the worn out maxim that brevity is the soul of wit, or words to that effect. I have been told that it is my duty as salutatorian to welcome this class and its guests and I have never been known to shirk my duty, be it what it may. In other words, I seen my duty and done it. You may, therefore, from now on, con- sider yourselves welcome. I have found by reading 976 salutatory addresses that it is customary for the sallutatorian to say a few words as regards our feelings on leaving Eastem. I can see by your tear-stained faces that you are greatly disturbed at leaving the old school. I felt the same way regards this, so I asked pemlission of Mr. Mann for this class to be allowed to visit the old school if we promised not to tease the Freshmen, and after great deliberation he says we could come provided we did not come on Sat. or Sun. I replied that this was O. K. since I have found that the members of this class usually sleeps all day Sat. and Sun. Another stunt seems to be to express our thanks to our teachers. I'll say that's a good stunt. So I would like, at this time, to say a few words as regards how much we owe to Mr. Mann and to our teachers for their unselhshness in making themselves put up with us for four yrs. They have provided us with a tirm foundation on which to build our success. For instance, when we stand be- fore our future employer and he asks us what can we do, we can reply that we can do algebra and chemistry and he will inunediately know that we will make a good 4th assistant shipping clerk. Or, for instance, if you crave more learning and go to college and your pro- fessor asks you who wrote Irving's Sketch Book, you will immediately know it was Shakespeare, thus saving yourself the trouble of looking it up. Speaking of colleges, I see by their catalogue that Nimrod College, at Hot Dog, New Mexico, offers a four yr. course in How to sell ice cream freezers to an eskimo. This course is sure to be well patronized by many of our simple- minded graduates. Come to think of it, I promised to be brief so I had better cut short my dis- course. Before I close I do want to say I hope no one will forget to mention the time-honored fact, that the spade which is to be presented again today, is the very spade that dug the first spadeful of dirt on the foundation of this school. In closing I might say that now that you are going out into the world, you must stand on your own feet. This is especially advisable in crowded street cars, etc., and hy standing on your own feet you will never be affected by a shortage of chairs. I close, hoping a good time may be had by all. By the way, I must thank each of you for being here today. I also wish to thank our teachers for allowing us to graduate, the boat company for bringing us here, the Detroit Street Railway for taking us to the boat, the cooks who cooked this banquet, the farmers who raised this food, the carpenters who built this cafe, and last, but not least. our toastmaster, wl1o promised me that he would keep you awake during my speech.

I n The EASTERN Page6'0 N inelcen Twenly-Ulree An American Ideal Superior to adversity, equal to prosperity. These are noble words and truly they form the essence of our school spirit as we call it. In the first three words we find an emblem, an insignia of Eastern. They express the loyalty which enables us to cheer and pull for an Eastern team although they lose or seem to lose. In this way we conquer defeats. disappointments and disconragcments with the determina- tion to stand up and come through at the end victorious, materially or mur- ally. This spirit of superiority to adversity builds up Eastern teams in the face of unusual diliiiculties. It has created an honor standard and scholarship standing among the students second to none, for it is our tradition to bear our discouragements with a smile but to play clean against any odds. After we go from old Eastern we can use the same three words to bolster our courage, our faith, our determination, in a word our spirit. They form one-half of the code of the true man who conquers obstacles of any nature with the poor tools he has, in his determination to win. But more than this, our very nation was founded on this superiority. Through all manner of discouragements, we are proud to remember, our forefathers won battles, and having conquered a selfish king, they likewise conquered the wilderness and laid the foundations for our great empire. Is it inappropriate then, that one of the greatest of American families, the NVebsters, whose son so long and faithfully served the nation should choose for part of its motto the first three words? On these words, too, might every American had his creed. The last three words are another real test of our Fitness. Having built up our teams, our standards, by proving ourselves superior to adversity, and having finally won out we must be equal to our prosperity. These words are the other half of the Eastern spirit, of the code of a man. Perhaps the greatest and hardest test of all is to win, and to remain unchanged by victory, for should the head be turned, the fruits of victory are lost. It must be one of our principles to say little about winning, and to go on with the will to justify our ascendancy. Here, too, we may take, a lesson of our ancestors who, having been victorious, having built up a nation, forged onward to the hope of still greater things and stopped not to admire their handiwork. It is the other half of a true man's code for it is in reality the essence of progress. Is it any wonder therefore that this same family should chose these last three words to com- plete its motto. The flrst three make the man, and the last three preserve him in moral integrity. It is this spirit as presented by the motto on which our life at Eastern has been found, on which our nation has been formed and on which our lives and our nation can continue to thrive. And so thoroughly versed in these principles may we go out from Eastern superior to adversity, equal to prosperity. Do:-1 AIURPIIY. To M. S.

VVe all realize that it is valuable, but few of us realize how it increases in value with each passing moment. The cave man's grass rope, the sun dial, the hour glass, the water clock-all these were milestones mark- ing the world's awakening to the value of time. They were upward steps in the evolution of the present system for recording time. They show man's desire to save time by obtaining an accurate means for measuring it. Theophrastus. the successor of Aristotle, called Time the most valu- able thing a man can spend. Yet many men spend it unwisely, nay, even foolishly, receiving little in return. Caesar knew the value ot' time. lYhile Caesars foes debated. Caesar struck. Eight brilliant campaigns against the harbarians of northern Europe checked the rising tide of migration hy almost five centuries. Forced marches across the Alps hrought his legions from Rome to Geneva in eight days, an average of a hundred miles a day. To checkmate the German hosts invading Flanders, Caesar built, in ten days, his famous bridge across the Rhine. His war in Asia Minor lasted live days. He put his message ot' vic- tory into three words. He wanted to save time. At the seige of Acre, in lltll. the Crusaders had beseiged the city for two years and had lost two hundred thousand men. XVhen the fleet of Rich- ard the Lion Hearted anchored ot? the Syrian coast Richard arose from a sick hed and led an immediate and successful charge. He believed in saving time. Thus. I might show you how all through the ages great men have appre- ciated the value of time. Step by step the world draws nearer to a practical recognition of the value of time. At the present day business contracts have time limits. Modern busi- ness men realize that time is money. Railroad men realize that time is of infinite value, for to them time is a matter of life or death, and who can reckon the value of a human life? Everywhere one goes one will find devices for saving time. The auto- mobile. the aeroplane. the telephone and wireless, the electric light-all ot' these show the desire of man to conserve time more than ever before. So, if one is ever tempted to waste time. thinking it valueless, remember that the moment just passed into the score of time's count, the moment which the hand of the clock tremlxles over. a hair's breadth to go-these are no man's claim. The one is gone forever: the other may mark the passage of his soul. Russian. T. Cos'rm.i.u.

In the schoolroom he leans on his elbow, in the office on his pen, and in the ditch on his shovel, However, with all his dexterity for leaning, he has never leaned on a sceptre. In the course of his ambles here and there in life, he encounters now and then, an antagonistic type of person, one who never leaned. Feeling the power and the danger of this sort of person, he'gathers his own kind into a crowd, which he calls, with incomprehensible humor, a labor organi- zation. Most of the members have never laboredg they have talked about it. His organization is like a ladies' dramatic club. VVhen his band assumes formidable proportions, he appoints, not from his own crowd but from the nnleaning one, a leader, preferably a man of high intelligence, who holds sacred those standards of work and education which the leaner, with his horror of activity, despises. This man is supposed to give speeches and to write articles, which in their turn are supposed to convince the world that the leaner doesn't lean, and that, if he does, he is under- paid for his efforts, To accomplish such a task requires a superlative imagination and intellect 3 this is the reason that many of our best thinkers are salaried agitators. I do not mean that this leader is mercenary. He is indiscreetly sympa- thetic. If his conscience has guided him, he probably has never felt any compunction from his relations with these people. It is here that the diFl'iculty lies. He is sincere. Even though the leaners find the world offensive, and would mold it nearer to the lieart's desire. they are so busy leaning that they never find time. So they appoint this well-meaning gentleman to do the dirty work. They call him a leader, and his fickle vanity expands like a puff ball. Al- though heretofore he may have been an aristocrat, or of that descent, as is a well known Russian leader, he considers himself a leaner and also man- ages to feel abused. So immediately he writes a long article which is, unwittingly, a prelude to a jail sentence. His aristocratic sensibilities having been irritated by the lack of luxuries in jail, he writes another article of very caustic content. After his release he returns to the leaners, who hemoan the fact that their leader had to eat pork chops instead of lamb chops for breakfast. Immediately there is concocted another article on prison abuses. This sort of thing goes on ad infinituni. and leanerisin remains as it always has been. one of the social menaces of the world.

This question leads to many others, such as, Shall I ever reach that height, and, if so, how ? If we are honest with ourselves. we see that it is not merely genius which has gained success for these great men, but that their achievements are the products of good. hard work for Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time. The largest and most enduring success often has been joined with tire- less industry and painstaking effort. Mr. Thomas A. Edison, our foremost genius in the mechanical line, says that success results from 9995 perspira- tion. and lik inspiration, and certainly Mr. Edison is well qualified to speak on this subject. XVe can succeed, or we can fail. XVe are the moulders ot' our own destinies. Our best friends cannot make us successful. though they may instill in us a desire for success. Every step forward, brings us exactly one step nearer the goal to which we aspire. Consistent work advances one faster than he realizes. Nothing succeeds like success. In considering our success, we must also think of others. There are al- ways those who look for us to make something of our selves-our classmates, our teachers. our parents, and our friends. Are we going to disappoint them? It is our duty to ourselves. to our friends, to our homes, to our school. and to our country, to succeed. But we cannot dream ourselves into success, for The heights by great men reached and kept Vtlere not attained by sudden Hight.

Two thousand years have made it less a temple and more a sad memorial of theltransitoriuess of all that is great. Beneath its shadow once rumbled carts: there men dreamed of a beauty consummate, and there men created that beauty and became dust. Ephemeral plants now push themselves be- tween the stones of that ineffable edifice, and it crumbles. The most majes- tic of all things, the one great attestation of the culture that men have slaved to produce, is passing, and with it departs the memory of those who fashioned it. Thus not only their bodies, but even men's higher selves, are broken by the hand that carved them-Time.

TheEASTERN Puge66 N ineleen Twrnly-llirec Vanity Cases NVhile the Olympic was juggling eastward over the Atlantic, Milly. out to inhale a gulp of last night's cigarette butt, was juggling westward along its promenade. Her lips were like a precious heart when there's only one left in the deck. She blew smoke-hoops that dallied around, slooped down over her head and, lighting on her shoulders, became necklaces. The sky was blue, as usual. The boat staggered, and Milly staggered, and the cigarette butt went to her head. The sea, flat like Finnish feet, scuflled by the steamer and hung around the back end like a white necktie. Good morning, Miss Turner. Milly felt the fog lift and saw the count. He stood there, decked in the glory that was Tit'fany's. She wished for the untainted air of Olympus, but his Highness hung around like a bad reputation. Milly, overdelighted with the cigarette, lurched again. She came near demolishing the count. He side-stepped and blocked. He always managed to be handy when something was going on. Suddenly Milly's vanity case flopped from her hand and went for a stroll on the deck. A couple of puffs later, the former count liove into view with it on board. His collar was a dish-rag. He was red, but not with a blush. His beard was a swamp. In his hand he clutched the autographed paint can. You may keep it, Count, old dear. And his Highness, who was a devoted manufacturer and an ardent col- lector of vanity cases. took it away. ik lk 4 HY lk lk Three days later, France. Two snappy looking tenders amble up the harbor.

XVe have not been the foremost in interhouse athletics, but have made many good attempts. Last fall we tied for second place in football and in basketball this spring. 'l'hree-Ten was tied three times for first place in the finals of basketball. Interhouse track found many novice contenders out. In the indoor meet we took third, while outdoors we easily took second. House basketball and tennis are just getting under way. Lincoln House furnishes uiany varsity athletes, including three captains. These are Howard Hamilton, acting captain of the 15123 football team, james Lemen. captain of the 1922-23 basketball team, and Reeve Brown, captain of the 1923 track team. Among the other athletes are Chester Grieling, Cliff Mogk. Franklin Jerome, Earle Flanigan, Nathan Addy, Carl joop, Harvey Cunow, Howard Baker, Tommy Belt. Stuart Beyer. Frederick VVhelan and Glenn Curtis. Many Lincoln House men are prominent in all other branches of school activities. The former editor-in-chief of the Indian, Frank Jerome, Cliff alogk. one of the leading actors of the Mikado, Brownlee Kerr also of the IXlikado. are Lincolnites. Several of the boys composing the chorus of the opera were also from 'I'liree-Ten. Lincoln House has had possession of the 'iClcanest House banner all semester, It has had one hundred per cent Indian sales all the term too. One hundred per cent in 'I'hree-Ten means many Indians to be sold be- cause there are 329 fellows here. To the Seniors of the january class. Three-Ten gave the President, Bruce Garbutt, and an able one he was too. The council has done much to keep the room in as near perfect order as pos- sible. and deserve much credit. During Mr. Sooy's illness the graderoom was as quite as any house could be. XYithout a doubt, the hoys, one and all. of Three-Ten believe, and correct they are, that Mr. Sony is the best House Principal in the school. Wlell, fellows, let's give a yeah to Mr. Sooy, so he will hear it. P09073 T1zeEASTERN Nmeleen Twcnly-three House of DIANA The House of Diana began the fall term under the leadership of Faith McCulloch assisted by Gladys O,Hara as secretary and Marie Springman as treasurer. Faith was an able leader of a peppy bunch of girls and the term started out well with our regular initiation exercise which was very impressive. At Christmas, the house undertook to till baskets for needy families. To help the Christmas spirit, the house gave a party for its members and each one brought a present for someone else in the house. They were only small gifts, but we all appreciated them and went home feeling full of Christmas spirit. Both Faith and Miss Duffy received Christmas presents, Faith a big white skating sweater and Miss Duffy a gold fountain pen. The new term brought about a change in officers. Gladys O'Hara suc- ceeded Faith as president, Marie Springman took Gladys' ofliee as secretary and Edna Tritts became treasurer. These oliieers have proved to be just as good as possible and they have been very active in bettering the graderoom. This spring and last fall we bought pins or rings representing our house. They are small discs with the head of Diana on them, The new girls also bought their house colors in ribbon for their memory books. The house is planning to plant bushes around the monument on the front lawn. It will be a great improvement in the looks of the place as it is rather bare now. Our graderoom is well represented in the senior class this spring. Grace Bernhagen is secretary and Gladys O'Hara is valedictorian. jean DeVxies was chosen to receive the spade for the 12B class. VVe feel quite honored to have such oiilices filled by girls from our room. XVe surely will greatly miss all our 12A's when they leave us.

Seniors, as we bid you farewell, we point with pride to the record which you have helped us to attain. During your stay here you have helped each one and have done your best toward making VVebster House what it is in athletics and scholarship. May your spirit remain with us. There, now that that's off our minds we can go ahead. But seriously speaking, fellows, 2-L0 has had a good year. This has, in a good bit, been due to efficient and wise leadership. Our old friend, Don Cooper, started the good work by being the successful candidate at the presidential election last September. It was a fine start, too. VVithin three weeks he had the court system working so well that the committee was surprised at itself. Then, to Finish the term well, Don led our indoor track team to victory. Yes, Don did us quite a bit of good while he was with us. Oh! Yes! come to think of it, at the end of last term we changed our place of abode. In other words, we moved. Our rapid growth caused us to require a larger graderoom, so we traded houses with the girls of 210. XVe think they got the best of the bargain, though. We left them a very artistic copy of a portion of the Ordinance of 1'2'8'7, while they left us only a spinning wheel, which we couldn't use. Possibly, though, they could not use our Ordinance either. This term we made a good beginning by electing Russell Bielman pres- ident. After serving a few weeks, however, he had to resign, since accord- ing to the honor point system he couldn't be president and play basket ball, too. Another election was held and this time Gus Zielke was elected by a large plurality. Gus, with the aid of Don Murphy and the Senior Coun- cil, continued the good work begun by Bielnlan. Xvhen the outdoor track meet came along we romped in an easy first, with our opponents more than one hundred points behind, thus gaining un- disputed sway as track champions. Along with this came the announce- ment that we had won the scholarship cup for the fifth consecutive time. And then because we needed something with which to decorate the wall, we were presented with the poster for having the highest Indian sales last term. Yes, all in all, it has been a good year for 240. And now, fellows, let's not forget Mr. Waterbury, who, by his good nature, his understanding of boys, and his belief in what 240 can do, has helped make NNebster House what it is. May he never regret that he is principal of 240. R, Cos1-ci.i.o. p,,g,75 TIIEEASTEHN f N ineteen Twenty-three House of VICTORY Principal: Katherine M. Gartner.

The House of Victory-what a lovely place to be! Does not the grace- ful Victory, who stands ever watchful on a pedestal of Faithfuluess, tell you what the name of 300 signilies? The name of the house is an inspiration, and under the wonderful leadership of Miss Gartner and our two presidents, Jean Henselwood, and Marian Brooks, the house has been kept in perfect running order. On November 19 we celebrated the anniversary of the dedication ol' the house. First, we had a dialogue illustrated by tablcaux, in the auditorium. In these tableaux Lillian Synder was Mr. Hastings, Dorothy Myll was Alice, and Helen Sands was the Song of the Lark. The president, jean Henselwood, gave an address. Mr. Osbourne of the Board of Education gave us a talk, and jean Taylor, Wilhelmina Weyhing, and Virginia Gies gave a triologue ofthe Three Victories. After this, our girls who were in the dancing classes did interpretive dancing, and Dorothy Becker did a solo dance. Miss Gartner's illness at the beginning of the second term kept her away for two weeks, and proved to be Marian's opportunity to show her initiative. VVe all appreciate her efforts, and we wish her success and happi- ness in her future undertakings. The council, by their wonderful tact, poise, and kindliness gained hearty co-operation from the House group each hour. To this splendid spirit of helpfulness is attributed the evident improvement in the scholarship and daily conduct. The honor roll has been exceptionally large this year. Louis Culver, a January graduate, has eapably supervised the decoration of our boards this year. This year a new piano was added to our house. XfVe have been enter- tained at record several times by Lillian Snyder, Alice Gould, Gertrude McKulske, Lorraine More, and others who played to us. 300 excelled in athletics this year. XVe won the basketball champion- ship, and had a splendid term of tennis. Vern Hayes won laurels for the house when she won a pair of gold ice skates for the state championship in the mile. We are mighty proud of her. To the Seniors, who have given such splendid help and co-operation dur- ing their four years, Victory sends best wishes for future' success and happi- ness.

Tliclf.-lSTERN Pugc80 Nfnclem Twenty-lltree YYW' 7 7 A History of Eastern Uv DoN M um-ttv ln this history l propose to sketch if somewhat brietly the outline of liastern's life since our school was lirst organized down to our day. Eastern was tirst organized in the fall of lS5l3, twenty-eight years ago, and had for its first home the old Williams school on Canfield near Mt. Elliott. which at that time was one of the newer schools. Dr. Houghton was the first principal of this school which began with an enrollment of 52. llut owing to its rapid growth the school was moved from the Williams building to the llarris school on the cor- ner of Pulford and Ellery streets. .Xgitation for a new high school building had been started and though there was much opposition in the lioard of Education, the building was finally begun with the laying of the cornerstone in 11100. The spade with which the first sod was turned over at the ceremonies dedicating the ground to education was obtained and since then it has been handed down from class to class as a symbol of authority. .Xfter the usual amount of delay incident with the completion of such buildings, Eastern lligh was opened in the fall of 1001, while yet the varnish was sticky and the building resounded to the blows of the carpenters, An evening session was held during the first few weelts to which the parents came to view the handiwork and prodigality of the city. While the new school was in the process of being built the .-Xthletic .Nssociation was formed in ltltltl, ljnder it we had our first regular football team in the fall of 1900 mid the next spring saw our lirst official baseball team, Indeed the year ISHN! seems to have been a frnitiul one for in the spring of that year Eastern had its first excursion to Taslnnoo on the new steamer. The Tasluiioof' By the next year the enrollment had reached the total of 25151. There were few societies at the time: in fact there were three: an English clttb, the Tennis club, and the Debating society, The .Xnti-Cigarette league also flourished at the time. These clubs were of a distinctly scholastic character for there were no parties of any sort. The only social functions at all were parties given by mem- bers of the faculty or pupils at home. The 12-A parties were usually given by a member of the faculty in her home for at the time the graduating classes did not lllllllllef UYCI' tYVCllly. Up to the present nothing has been said of the colors. one of the important things of a school. lt is related that the lirst colors of Eastern were lied and White. Shortly after the new building was completed the Eastern Debating Society. the most prominent of the societies, journeyed to XVestern l-ligb which was also in its new building. They were surprised at Ending the school decorated in the Red and XVhite and naturally supposed it to be in honor of Eastern. lint they were soon disillusioned for the fact was that Western's colors were also Red and XVhite. Immediately after the debate the Society went home and spread the news concerning the colors with the result that thel Orange and Black became Eastertfs oHicial colors. By way of showing the size of the school we mention the fact that the gradua- tion class of H103 numbered only lsl, while some were even less. The usual per- sonal parties were given by members of the faculty. and the class. Shortly after the graduation of this class the Alumni :Xssociation gave a watermelon festival in honor of the class. lntagine if you can the expense of such a feast at present day prices. Between the years lfltlli and lflltl the students' records seem strangely lack- ing but a few facts have been ascertained. lt was during these years that the fam- ous 4'Ernis lYllCStl'I0fT attended Eastern and made her teams feared in all branches of athletics. particttlarly basketball. During his stay at Eastern we had several championship basketball teams and all things considered the school was justly Pa41e8l TheEASTEIfN TNinclcen Twenty-Ulrcc prominent in this field during this period of time. One important change was made in the school about 1910. lt was the addition of the rear wing comprising the two graderooms, tl1e biology rooms and the adjacent rooms and the gymnasium. The need of the school for greater space owing to its greatly enlarged enrollment was thus taken care of for a time. The old gynmasium was located where the lunch- room is now, while the lunchroom was located in the baselnent. In 1008 Mr. Wnesthotf inaugurated the interclass leagues in athletics for the purpose of devel- opment of material. At the present time this example has been followed in the intergraderoom competition and, needless to say, this practice has developed much varsity material. Outside of these few facts we have found no student records of this period. However, beginning with the year 1010 we find fairly complete records. Dur- ing this year The Eastern, the first school paper was published and in the Audi- todum where its organization was announced the student support was asked. For a time there were two papers, the Vox Stuclentisf' the organ of the Debating Society and the first to be published at Eastern, and the Eastern, the newest and first real school paper. This soon proved to be the stronger organization, for soon afterwards the Vox Studentis dropped from existence. The spirit of rivalry between Eastern and Western was at its highest in these years as was evidenced in all athletic contests. In this year our baseball team was of championship fibre, having defeated six state teams. Not to be outdone in football our school, under Mr. WuesthoH s coaching developed a remarkable team although it gained no championship. The number of societies had increased and among the new ones we find the old House of Reprqsentativesu a social, debating and governmental society, and the Girls' Debating Society which had been recently organized. The enlargement of the school is mirrored by a 12-A class which contained at this time 41 members against the 1-1 members of the 1903 class. In the following year the basketball team did fairly well, but on the whole athletics at Eastern were rather outclassed by those in other schools. Among the many social features was a ball given by the House of Representatives at the ballrooms of the Hotel Tnller. The House at this time was probably the most prominent of the clubs, and the clubs had changed from being purely scholastic to being social as well as scholastic. The Roman Senate. the forerunner of the Forum Romanum, was organized in March and was quite prominent for several years. Among other clubs to be organized was the Camera Club under the guid- ance of Mr. Struble for the purpose of advancing interest in photography, and the Eastern Club the predecessor of our present Hi-Y Club, with practically the same purpose, to further the standards of Eastern's boys. Another club of a different nature was formed. This was the Eastern High Post-graduate Club composed of those taking the post-graduate courses and tended to help those in the club to re- main in the active school life. During the spring the Debating Society went to Saginaw High, engaging them in a debate which it was our misfortune to lose. The baseball team was coached then by Mr. Vilaterbury, the principal of House 210, and according to all reports it had a very fair season. In the fall of the year the football team had only fair success. This year witnessed the development of many clubs and the social side of school life was becoming gradually more im- portant. V During the next year a few more clubs were started, among them being the Girls' Gym Club which supplied the want among the girls of an athletic club. The chance for city championship in basketball was lost by the defeat of the team which contained many well-known names. among them that of Hubbie Weekesf' and for a time Dr. Bishop, the principal, tried the experiment of afternoon basketball owing to some dimcnlties with Western. All through these years the rivalry .be- tween Eastern and Western was intense and indeed often broke out into near riot. ln these days the rollicking, robust, enthusiasm of the students who followed the CCunlinurd on Page 1075 TIUEASTERN Page82 Nineleen Twenly-lllrre Contributors' Club President ..... . ,..... ......... ..... . ...JOHN ALDRICH Vice-President ....

June Class Play The June graduating class presented The Professor's Daughter, by Anne Bunner. It was a modern comedy with marked humor. The cast was: Professor's Daughter, Eve Littleton ......... , .... Helen Hahn The man, Jerry Thorpe ............., . . . . .Lawrence Leonard His chum, Jack Morgan .....,..... ...... R ussell Costello 1ack's Aunt, Mrs. Martin ..... ,...Gertrude McKulsky Professor Littleton ...... .. ......, Royce Hooper Village dressmaker ............,,............ Mildred Balcom Man of all works ...........,................. Russell Cuyler All parts were all well taken and reflected hard work as well as talent. The stage setting was of particular interest, as the beautiful set of gray willow furniture was a gift of the class from the proceeds of the play. The play was under the direction of Miss Frances Cook, assisted by Miss Yates and Miss Jones. Paye89 TheEASTERN N ineleen Twenty-llzree Principals of Class Play June, 1923 Concerning Eastern's Music Department The music department of Eastern, under thc capable management and instruction of Miss jones, is flourishing and steadily increasing in importance and value. This department has distinguished itself constantly, and East- crn's obligations to it are many. ' At all festive times the orchestra aids in arousing spirit. It is decidedly an incentive at the mass meetings. A 'l'l1anksgiving program is always given. the proceeds of which are used to furnish music and other necessities for the orchestra. Christmas programs are given annually, without charge, to the students. The efforts of the Music Department in producing the Mikado were undoubtedly invaluable. This department has provided entertainment at the Parent-Teachers' Association meetings. at the commencement exercises of both the Night and Day Schools, and -at the Gym demonstrations. A Cantata was given june l-l by the vocal classes and orchestra. East- ern was also represented in a combined chorus at Cass Technical High School. Not only is the music department valuable for the music that Eastern enjoys, but it creates a very social atmosphere. There are Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs. which have done some very good work. Thus, socially and musically, this department is a decided benefit to Eastern. The EASTERN Page90 N ineleen Twenty-llarec Sock and Buskin It would seem that there are as many clubs at Eastern as there are students, and therefore that some of them should be unknown. Quite trueg most of them are unknown, but the Sock and Buskin Club is not. This club, which existed since the beginning of the school year, has for its purpose the furthering of interests in dramatics among the students. For the time spent in play production the thirty or more members receive five hours credit and five honor points each semester, which ranks them with house, senior class, and club presidents as well as with the members of the athletic teams. There are many important personages in the club but the mute inglorious ones are the main factors. I believe that each artist of immortal fame has trailing be- hind him ten unknowns who have done greater things than he himself, yet they never stand forth to be recognized. These are the ones who keep the scenery from falling and remind the actors not to walk on the iootlights. The plays that this club has given have taken in every phase of life, and every English dialect imaginable. All sorts of figures live on the boardsg milk-maids, shop-lifters, debutantes, grandmothers, noblemen, kings, famiers. People pray or swear with equal sincerity. People laugh or cry with equal intensity of emotion. Thus the drama finds, through the Sock and Buskin Club, a vein for transferring its life, and since drama is one of the many important arts of the world, any club which upholds it well should certainly never fall among the unknowns, Conse- quently we find the Sock and Buskin known all over school and even outside, inas- much it has been asked to stage one of its plays at a downtown theatre this year. Considering the importance of laundries, chow-mien, tea, incense, etc., no dramatic year can pass without a flavor of the Orient. Such was the Mikado, a quintessential flavor of the Orient. It was the largest play given at Eastern this year. Everybody was in it. There were so many that I was worrying about where to find enough people to make up an audience when the play was given. The oriental tone of the play itself was emphasized by cherry-blossom, and lat- tice-work decoration as well as by very elaborate costumes. All the parts were very well taken, as all who went to see it will aver. This opera represented the culmination of the year's work of the orchestra and music department, as well as the Sock and Buskin Club.

Never be- fore in Detroit's interscholastic football history was interest so high-so great in fact that the official statistics showed the complete attendance to be three times greater than that of the preceeding year. Pre-season predictions, as usual, were as faulty and varied as they were numerous. One sportwriter classed us supreme, while another dubbed us a weak sister, placing us in the also ran class. And so it is every year, all followers of the national game having their own ideas and view points on future games. Minus a coach until three weeks prior to the first game of the season, Eastern's outlook was none too inspiring. However anxiety was short lived, as the opening of the next week brought with it our new coach, NVilliam F. Remmert, of Boston, Mass. Coach Remmert succeeded Percy Drew, former instructor for ten years, and a mentor who left behind him an enviable record. Coach Rennnert immediately took up his work with great enthusiasm, and he at once won the confidence andfriendship of his players. The line appeared very formidable, averaging about 180 pounds. He had plenty of backfield material but was undecided in his choice for the quarterback position. This difiiculty he sought to solve in the first two encounters. Goldberg Field on the day of the alumni game, was in a very poor state, and this, along with poor weather conditions, made it almost impossible to play at all. The game ended in a scorless tie, but Coach Remmert gained considerable knowledge concerning the respective abilities of his men. Bay City Central was the first opponent on the schedule, and the Orange and Black turned the upstaters back 6-0, in Il sea of mud, The victory was dearly paid for, however, as Captain Ed. Xvismer, fullback, broke his ankle late in third quarter, an injury that prohibited him from playing the re- mainder of the season. It was at this time also, that Chris Gorenflo, guard, was declared ineligible under the state ruling. XVith these two mishaps Eastern was facing a serious situation with the big Northern game but one week away. With a great determination to succeed, and, to make good despite the ill-luck which had struck them, the Indians practiced diligently for the Northern game. Weatlier conditions could never have been better for a football game, and Codd Field was literally jamed with people, the number being estimated at ten thousand. Eastern's Gridder took the field facing a jinx-a jinx of six previous years. We never had beaten Northern! Re- gardless of the merit of our eleven, excellent as it usually was, the Red and Blue always came out on top. Even in the days of Rockwell, Brandan, Kratz, Niesch and other great stars, the days when Eastern was practically invincible on the gridiron, the outcome was invariably the same. XVith these defeats on their minds, the east side team went into the game with revenge their goal,-and if ever desire was satisfied it was at that game. 'Ere the half was over, McGovern and Bielman had crossed the rival goal line, and the score stood out 13-0 in our favor. The most perfect high school foot- ball in years was witnessed by the awe-stricken spectators, as Eastern charged, blocked. tackled, kicked and played to perfection. james Lemen, playing his first year in varsity football, electrified the fans by kicking two beautiful field goals in the final period, bringing the score to 19-0, Never before was victory so gratifying to all of Eastern's loyal followers, especially TheEASTERN Page96 N ineleen Twenly-fhree 7 ' so after six successive defeats at the hands of the Eskimos. Much to the sorrow of Orange and Black, Chester Creiling sustained a broken leg, which resulted in his confinement at home for several weeks. The following week, the Indian squad journeyed to Monroe, where they upset the Muskrat City boys 16-0 before an enthusiastic crowd of local people. The Monroe game served as a good practice preparatory to the coming Northwestern game which was eagerly waited for by all. In years past, since the beginning of the Red and Gray institution, the two boulevard schools have been keen rivals in athletics, football being the most popular. A stiff workout was gone through by each team during the week, and at- tention from every school in the city was focused on this great event. The two teams lined up for the kickoff at Codd Field, before a crowd esti- mated at 15.000, the largest in prep school records. Neither goal line was crossed, but again Jay Lemen, the boy who claimed he couldn't kick, won the game in the first period with a beautiful drop kick from the 25 yard line. So intense and hard fought was the battle, that the spectators, thrilled beyond self control, grad- ually swarmed out on the field, halting the game's progress for several minutes. About the greatest moment in the lives of many an Eastern student happened in the last quarter. The Colts had advanced the leather to our 5-yard line with three downs to go, only to be repelled when Julius Chatman, of Northwestern, was tossed for a loss on our 3-yard mark on an off tackle cross buck play. Lemen kicked out of danger and clinched the game for Eastern. That game has gone down in Detroit high school annals as the most spectacular game ever played be- tween two rival prep schools. And yet-we paid for that game too. Russell Beilnian severely injured his knee and was forced to be a sideliner for several of the following engagements. The Birmingham contest the following week afforded the team an easy victory, and they were not forced to exert themseves very much to gain their 14-0 verdict. George jaglowitz played his last game for Eastern at Birmingham, as he was called to Kentucky on business. The loss of jag- lowitz was bound to be felt in the remaining games. The next week saw Coach Remmert piloting a crippled team to Port Huron. The Tunnel City eleven held the Detroiters to a standstill, and had it not been for Lemen's punts, the outcome might have been different. Under the existing circumstances, Eastern certainly was only too glad to welcome a scoreless tie. Western had been mangled beyond repair throughout the season, and the best she could possibly do against the efforts of the Indians would be to see how few touchdowns she could hold her old rival to. Eastern won again, the score being 14-0, Cbauvan's 50-yard run from punt formation to a touch- down, and Lemen's 45-yard sprint around end to another score were suliici- ent to beat the cowboys. The final game of the season was with Central. The Blue and White eleven had started low, and had gradually increased till her strength at the end of the season was exceptional. Meanwhile, Eastern had been constantly declining, and she therefore faced a grave situation when she opposed Central in the final game of the year. The first quarter was the most de- structive Eastern had met all year. The Trailblazers had crossed our goal line for the first time this year, and were on a dead march for another score. The fact that her goal line had been crossed for the first time was enough to break the morale of any team. The first half ended 7-0 in Central's favor. A new team took the field for Eastern in the next half, and once more the old confidence was present. It was not long before Eastern had scored a touchdown in the fourth quarter, and Lemen had carried the oval across the P0 wgY N WiiWwW W The EASTERN A ' N inrlren Twenty-lhree line. With the score a tie, and three minutes left to play, Lemen completed one of the greatest drop kicks ever seen when he fairly and squarely booted the leather through the goal posts from the 43-yard line and at a diliicult angle. Thus a game which appeared hopelessly lost, was won through sheer grit and the ability of Eastern's griddcrs to Hcome back. Scored on but once! Eighty-two points to 7 for her opponents! City and state cham- pions! A team that fought against odds and reverses! A team of wonderful fellows, and a team that we shall never forget. Basketball Having nicely put away the Alumni game and a series of others, in- cluding those with U. of D. High and Southwestern, Eastern started the regular season in good shape. Russ Beilman, however, was lost in the Southwestern game, which was a high price to pay for a 41 to 9 victory. The Southeastern game was full of fight and pep. The schools have been rivals for years and would rather win from each other than from any other school. Both teams wanted to win, badly. However the Orange and Black turned in a score of 23 to 8. Jay Lemen played a wonderful game. He was greatly aided by his running mate, Kahl, who played the other forward. The Northeastern game was the second one for the team to win. The game was good and hotly contested. Eastern got away to a bad start but soon took the lead. The score at the end of the first half was 12 to 8 in our favor. The whole team, working as a perfectly oiled machine, had a won- derful cog in Capt. Lemen who scored a number of free throws and field goals. The game ended 28 to 18 in our favor. The Highland game was slow in the first quarter. Both teams appeared to be watching each other, but the second half was very fast. McGovern played a good game at guard and Sullo held his end up well. The final whistle found the Polar Bears badly scalped by the Indians, 25-9. The Eastern-Cass game proved to be a record maker-the longest over- time game ever played by high school teams in Detroit. Neither school gained a lead of over three points at anytime. Both teams were at their best. The regular playing found the score tied 21 to 21. Two overtime periods were played but the score was still 21 to 21. In the third, the score was made 23-21 by Kahl with a favorite short shot from the fifteen-foot line. Cass failed to come back with more stuff so the game ended: Eastern 23, Cass 21. Eastern went to Northern, and conquered the Eskimos by a score of 49 to 23. Northern got the jump on us and the score stood 7 to 5 at end of first quarter. However this was short lived because Kahl and Lemen opened up with many long and short shots. TheEASTERN Pagr9G Nineteen Twenly-llzrrez' YY 7 A' '- ' - ' Z Russell Beilman, football captain-elect of 1923, played a good game while his leg was all right. In the third quarter his had leg was injured again, and he was carried out. McGovern played an excellent game and the success of the game was in a large measure due to him. He has a wonder- ful ability to make his opponent miss long and short shots. Kahl played an excellent game at forward and deserves much credit. Captain Lemen scored more points than the whole Northern team put together. Bud Reick was found in this game. He played his first game and played it well. Coach Vandemeer was very well pleased with his work. Here ended a most suc- cessful Flrst half season of basketball. In beginning the second half of the season Eastern was forced to play an extra period to win 2-1 to 19 against Southeastern. The team played a wonderful kind of basketball and XVOI1. Next we again downed Northeastern 28 to 26. This score was too close to be comfortable. Both teams fought their hardest to win from the be- ginning to end. Lemen came through with his foul shooting and general good playing which was a great hclp. Cass Technical came to Eastern and was beaten 28 to 10 without much exertion on the part of the team. McGovern and Kahl each played a very good game and much credit should go to them for their work. Cass was allowed but one solitary field goal. hy Herrington. Eastern then journeyed to Alina to defeat the undefeated upstaters. The squad did this nicely, 21 to El. There were many fouls committed by the Alma crowd and the game turned out to be an exhibition of football indoors. The score stood S to 7 in favor of Eastern at the end of the first half. To play the last game of a perfect season and lose would be impossible. The team, according to expectations did not lose. XVe won by a score of 41 to 11. The Northern bunch was routed early in the game. The Eskimos were fighting as individuals and therefore lost. This game was a most successful ending to a most successful season. Because of the ineligibility of a VVestern player Eastern was forced to play Northwestern for the city title, In the first game at the Armory for some unknown reason the team could not find the baskets and we lost 21 to 26. The next week the team again played Northwestern determined to win. Again we lost, 28 to 25. As McGovern said, don't crab, they'beat us. Next, the team journeyed to East Lansing to play in the state tourna- ment. Our first game was with Highland Park. VVe lost 18 to 15. Then we played and beat Mnnising 25 to 17: jackson 24 to 195 and Holland 24 to 12, thus winning the consolation series. The team here ended our most successful season in basketball. The competition was great and the stars many. James Lemen was picked as the All-State and All-City forward. while McGovern was picked on the second All-State and All-City team. Capt. james Lemen was the high point scorer of the city. Kahl, our right forward, played many fine games and must be thanked for his excellent service. Sullo, Reick, Jerome, Ryan and Beilman all played a wonderful game. The team was a well-built, wellvoiled, and well-handled machine. Much praise must be given to both coach and team. Let us close with a Yea Vandemeer, 3 times, let's go! !

VVe took the Ann Arbor State meet but lost the City' and Lansing meets to Northwestern. and the team, although it lost, proved itself gan1e.', A summary of our track season follows: The first meet with Central, we won by an eight point margin, the score being MM to BGZ. The next meet, with the Colts' team, we lost by a small number of points. On May 1, we entered the State meet at Ann Arbor, which we won by a margin of QSM pointsi over Northwestern. In the City meet, May 10, although we were strong in several lines, we were nosed out of victory by our old rivals, Northwest- ern, while Northern placed third. Again on June 9 Northwestern captured the Lansing meet, Lansing High taking second and Eastern third.

At the beginning of the season it was believed that Eastern had a very slim chance of getting the championship. VVe got it anyway. In honor of the members of this squad we will publish a list of the events and those taking part in each. In the mile we were well represented by Stilwell, who usually set the pace and won: also by Lange. Beyer. and Belt. VVe were strong in the half-mile event also. Captain Reeve Brown and Houghton were our men in this race. Our 440 men, Curtis and Siersma, were very good and always showed up strong. The 220 event was taken care of by L. Wilcox, Klockow and Wills. The 30-yard dash was dashed off in good time by Volz, Colton, VVilcox, and Grundy. In the hurdles we had Grundy, Vllilcox. and Tescb. Our relay team, consisting of Volz, Wills, Wil- cox, Klockow, and Grundy, made a good showing in all the meets. In the high jump we were very ably represented by Huntington, who always managed to win. even if he did have to break a record to do so. Our pole vaulters, Whelan and Hinning, were not as good as they might have been. Hamilton put the shot in all meets. The first meet, which was with the Alumni, was lost by Eastern. The Alumni were well represented by many old stars. We also lost to Northwestern by a 48-47 score. Highland Park was easily beaten by our team. Eastern won from Central by a 2 point margin. Eastern won the city meet by 31 points. Our near- est rival, Central, had 29 points. -1- Tll8ErlSTERN Page100 Ninefeen Twenty-fhrre' Baseball Coach-Charles XV. Yeager. Captain-Harold E. Kahl.

After a one year absence from the diamond, Eastern High added base- ball to its list of sports with renewed vigor. Under the careful tutelage of Coach Charles W. Yeager a team was soon rounded in shape for the first game with Northwestern at Northwestern Field. The game was hotly contested, and the Colts profiting by several errors, emerged the victors by a 11 to 8 score. Forgey, jeup and Flannigan com- posed Eastern's battery, while Ernie McCoy caught Ed. Flannigan for the Colts. ' The second game was played with Cass, at Belle Isle. jeup, the plucky little Indian hurler, and Harris of Cass staged a thrilling mound battle, which the latter returned the victor by a 2 to 1 score, the Mechanics' favor. The Indians were off on batting or would have annexed this contest. Northern was the next term to face Eastern at Belle Isle. For four innings little VVillie Lightbody held the Indians in check. In the fifth the Eastern lads solved his delivery and pounded his offerings to all sections of the field. McCvovern's home run with 'two on the sacks paved the way for the Eastern rally which followed in the next inning. Chauvin and Kahl both hit for the circuit in the sixth inning, each time with a man on base. NVhen the cloud of dust finally arose Eastern had amassed ten counters and won the game by a 14 to 5 score. The outlook for the remainder of the season is very bright, and it is cer- tain that Eastern will finish up among the leaders. The EASTERN Page1027 Nineleen Twenty-llzre-e Girls Basketball Team The Eastern girls' basketball team ended their successful year with the winning of the city championship for which they received the Times' trophy. The team started out pretty green, only one girl having played last year, but their first game with Northwestern's strong 1922 champions gave our girls confidence, the score being 21 to 13 in favor of Eastern. The second game also favored Eastern with a score of 32-11 against Highland Park High. Unfortunately, the Eastern girls were unable to down the Central team and the score resulted in 14 to 25 for Central. This score against Eastern was largely due to the number of fouls made by our team. The following game with Northern cheered the Eastern girls and gave them new courage for the score was 23 to 18 for Eastern. The final game of the series with VVestern was easily won with a score of 29-10. Central and Eastern were then tied for city championship, Central hav- ing lost to Highland Park High previously. The game was strongly con- tested, but the Eastern team defeated Central by one point in the last quarter. The contest was marked by the few fouls made by both teams, Eastern hav- ing only two and Central having just one girl put out. The championship team was composed ofthe following girls: Forwards: Elmira Parsons, Lorrain Tailorg centers: Sadie Hulme, Kathleen Leacockg guards: Marie Heffron, Bertha Auchg subs: Helen Seiler, Dora Cooper. 59103 if The EASTERN - ' ' 'xNincleen Twenly-three Tennis XVith three members returning from the state championship team of '22, a successful season was anticipated. Franklin Jerome, captain of '22, Howard Baker, acting captain of the '23 squad, and VVilbur Bird Rieck'were the vet- erans to represent Eastern again on the court. In addition to these men, three very excellent racquet wielders in the persons of James Lemen, john Stefanowski, and Carl Otter, strengthened the team considerably. The first match was played on Eastern's courts, with Northwestern. The Orange and Black had things very much their own way in this opening encounter, and swamped the Colts, '7-0. Franklin Jerome was out because of a severe knee injury sustained in a baseball game. Facing great odds as a result of this calamity, and realizing sincerely that one more city tennis title would mean permanent pos- session of the cup already won twice by Eastern, the team pulled together and dis- played wonderful spirit in the ensuing games. . Southwestern, VVestern, and Northern went down to defeat in fast order, all by perfect slams, 7-0. The Northern defeat was the greatest surprise of the three, inasmuch as the Eskimos were counted on to figure strongly in the race for first place. Cass Tech also tasted the bitterness of a shutout in the following match, when the Indians set them back, 7-0. With five of the first round matches safely tucked away, the Indians dili- gently prepared for a critical tilt with Sontheastem. With the Beiderman brothers representing the Jungle clan, the Purple and VV hite presented a formidable line- up. The result was gratifying, the Indians winning 5-2. The last match of the first round was by far the closest, most interesting, and most hotly contested of all the preceding ones. Gratifying, indeed, to Eastern, fatal and disastrous to Central. Having three champions in their fold, Central, also unbeaten, was in good line to win the city title, The three stars of the Blue and White were victors in the singles matches, and led 3-0. But unity proved to be greater than: individuality, and as a consequence, both of Eastern's doubles teams triumphed, giving us the verdict, -I-3. Northwestern was met and defeated again, by the same score she had pre- viously accepted, 'T-0. In two successive days Southwestern and Cass bowed be- fore Eastern's superior attack, 5-0 and '7-0, respectively. It is impossible and very impracticable to make advance predictions as to the final outcome of the matches, but the writer hopes that Eastern, at the time of this publications distribution, is to be the sole and lifetime owner of the Detroit Free Press tennis cup. FRANKLIN D, Janome. TlxeEASTERN W A g Pugefoa N ineleen Tuerily-lllreeiw Y if i R. O. T. C. Late in the school year of 1919 the Eastern Cadet Corps adopted the new name of R. O. T. C. a.ud placed themselves under the control of our War Depart- ment. Little change, however, occurred until the following September when uniforms were issued and Sergeant Simpson, an old army man, was given charge. Advancing under the hard training of the Sergeant and inspired by the enthusiasm of the Student Major, Iris Carron, the corps developed into one of the tinest in the city and conducted itself admirably at the First Annual Field meet at Navin Field. The following year Sergeant Simpson devoted his entire time to the Store Room and Capt. Jackson, a NVest Pointer, aided by Mr. C. VV. Yeager, took charge. Less than six weeks after his arrival, Capt. Jackson was removed, not- withstanding the policy of the War Department to detail an ohicer for duty at an institution for four years. In this regard Eastern has been sadly handicapped and due to no fault of her own. The remainder of the year Mr. C. W. Yeager took charge, assisted at first by Sgt. Webb and later by Sgt. Fortney. Through his untiring efforts, the corps was able to do well in the second field meet, although not reaching the perfection of the first year. Last year Capt. MacMillan was detailed to Eastem. He was assisted ma- terially by Mr. Yeager. The corps existed now in numbers only. All its en- thusiasm was spent and what spirit still existed, was rapidly dying. Notwithstand- ing the lack of pep tlte unit managed to hold together until the end of the year. This September saw the complete disorganization of the unit. During the latter part of October, Capt. Lancaster, having been six years in the regular army. and seen service in China and later overseas, arrived at Eastem. Prospects were not very encouraging, but the Captain dug right in. With the assistance of some experienced members, he staged a recruiting campaign which resulted in a member- ship of more than eighty. r Another effort was made to gain new members at the beginning of this pres- ent semester and resulted in an enrollment of over ninety-five. Handicapped by a late spring, the corps were rather in need of practical application. The approach of the Fourth Field Meet necessitated intensive drill for the last few weeks of both the unit as a whole and the teams expecting to compete for honors at the meet. Eastern may well pride herself on the part of some of her students who made the corps really creditable. One of the outstanding achievements of the unit is the capturing of city honors by the riiie team. There is now no doubt but what the unit is on a sound basis and with the return of Capt. Lancaster next semester, and the support of the school, the corps should attain a very high standard. 7'lieEASTERN Page106 N ineleen Twenty-three Swimming Eastern did not show off well in the swimming meet this year. Although twenty-tive fellows agreed to try for this sport only six came out for practice. This made it impossible to hold any elimination tryouts because all six men were needed. We managed, however, to place our men in the tinals at Northwestem, where they took fifth place. The reason for this meet was that men might be chosen at this time to represent Detroit at Chicago. Our team consisted of Doden- hoff, Nevins, B. Kerr, Johanson, in the races, and Harrison and Zielke in the fancy diving contests. Harrison and Zielke were sure winners and, had they been able to compete at Northwestern, would have gone to Chicago. Unfortunately both were ill on the day of the meet so could not take part. The men were coached by Mr. Yaeger. If Eastern had a pool in which the men could practice they would surely make a better showing and more fellows would try out for the honor of repre- senting Eastern in swimming contests. Skating Eastern entered the city meet at Belle Isle and managed, in spite of hard luck, to take second place. First place was won by Northern, who seemed to he our jinx. In the 220 Volz was leading, but a Northern man knocked him down so he got only second place. Zeilke won the 830 and received third place in the fancy skating contest. The relay race, which Eastern lost through another accident, won the meet for Noxthern. Zeilke, who was anchor man, was knocked down by one of Northern's men. Eastern's relay team consisted of Volz, Pleger, Mogh, and Zeilke. Northem offered to run the meet over again because of the many Hukes, but she failed to do this. Why? There was plenty of good skating weather. Page107 The EASTERN N inetezn Twenfy-lhree A History of Eastern . fConlinurd from Page 81 J success and failures of the football team on which both I-Iubbie Weekes and jack Drew starred often manifested itself in the carefree good times on the return trip from a game in a manner which we mildly imitate on the Clairmount line, for at that time all street cars had only one truck making them perforce easy to rock. And even in this year the students longed for a new building, lamenting the small- ness of the rooms, lack of facilities and other things just as we have done. A division of the lunch period was made necessary by the increased number of stu- dents, showing again the steady growth of the school. In the period from 1913 to 1918 the restlessness of Europe seemed to make itself felt on even so small a part of the world as Eastern, fori during these years our school seems to have been overshadowed by others. During these five years our athletic teams had varying degrees of success, although Eastern still kept a name to be feared among athletic circles. Mr. Frye, who coached our teams, developed some excellent material in this field and he deserved much credit. In the year 1017 Eastern's ranks were depleted by the calling of many boys to the service and it seemed that the conflagration in the old world was burning every- thing. The fact is that during this period Eastern underwent numerous reverses and seemed to have suffered a sort of decadence. However, with year 1918 Eastern's fortune began to mend and we find among other good things a city championship football team, having lost to but one school in Detroit. Northwestern, built during the period just reviewed, began to make itself felt, and between Eastern and the Grand River school a rivalry such as that of the old Western type soon developed. In the community the high school began to use its influence in behalf of the Liberty Loan drive through its student four- minute speakers who spoke in the various grammar schools of the district. During this time the grade rooms 2-10 under Mr. Waterbury, 300 under Miss Gartner, 200 under Miss Currie, 230 under Miss Wood, 210 under Miss Duffy, and 310 under Mr. Sooy, were making great strides. At this time the six graderooms did not contain mixed grades, but two rooms took care of the ninth graders, two of the tenth graders, and one each of the eleventh and twelfth graders. During this year the commission plan of self-government was tried in 2-10 and in this manner the plan of self-government in the houses was inaugurated and from this beginning it has been elaborated until now students carry on largely the government of the school. In the next year the Reserves Ofihcers' Training Corps was organized at East- ern under Major Young and Captain Pourie, taking the place of the Cadet Corps which had passed into oblivion sometime ago. The track team tied for city cham- pionship in this branch of athletics, while our basketball team achieved mediocre success. There were many notable developments in this year. At this time the lunch room on the fourth tloor was opened to take the place of the old one in the basement and the increased capacity of the counter produced exclamations of joy from the student body. In the fall of the year Mr. Mann, the present principal, adopted the system of segregation, making three rooms, 2-10, 230 and 310, boys' rooms, and 210, 200 and 300 girls' rooms. Then too, the old idea of Mr. Wuest- hoff's was rejuvenated and the football competition between boys' graderooms was reinaugurated, to be applied later to all branches of athletics. The first year 310 won the banner given for championship inter-house football team. In 1920 the present athletic insignia or letters were adopted by the association to be given in reward for the players skill. We have also in this year the begin- ning and ending of the overall fad, during which the boys delighted in looking really of the laboring class. One of the most delightful features of the year was the Webster House vaudeville. Since the scheme of segregation had been adopted The EASTERN Page108 Nineteen Twenty-three names had been chosen for the graderooms, namely: House of Priscilla Alden, 2105 House of Diana, 2005 House of Victory, 3005 House of Webster, 240, House of Lincoln, 3105 and House of Roosevelt, 230. Impressive ceremonies featured the dedication of the houses and even now on the anniversaries the houses have elaborate entertainments. As for athletics, our track team took sec- ond in the city contest while our baseball team had a fine season. In these last years the old school had been changing and it would scarcely be recognized by an older graduate so different was it and so much greater in size, having by this time an enrollment of nearly 2000 pupils. In the last three years following a slump in 1921, Eastern has consistently won ground in all branches of athletics. In the spring of 1922 we won the track and tennis championships while in the fall we took the city championship in foot- ball without a defeat by a city or state school. In 1923 Eastern took the east side basketball championship, was second in the city championship series, and third in the state finals, while our indoor track men easily defeated the other con- testants. Indeed, it has been one of Eastern's most successful periods in athletics. In this last period the social side of the school has gained and lost. The Eastern Club was succeeded by the Hi-Y, the Roman Senate by the Forum Romanum, which has ceased to exist, the Eastern Gym Leaders' Club has been organized by the leaders in the gymnasium work of the boys, while several of the older societies are lost to sight. The social functions of the year consist principally in dances of the senior class and parties given by clubs. Graderooms have been changed, 240 and 210 changing at the beginning oi the year. One of the most notable changes was that in the school paper. The Eastern in 1921 became The Indian is- sued weekly instead of monthly, and finally in 1923 the circulation of the paper reaches 8579 of the enrollment. The Parent-Teacher Association has been formed. That the organization is active, is attested to by the fact that they have secured for us the action of the Board of Education in building a new school and have ob- tained many improvements for ns, although the organization is comparatively young. The old order has given way to the new and we, of the newer order, look back and laugh at the older, but who can tell what others in a future order of things may think of us. So let us hold in reverence the past which we have just reviewed. Page 109 We wish to thank the firms that have advertised in our annual for their willing co-operation.

He sails his ship somewhere up there in the clouds and drops overboard his many tales. He writes with a comet, dipped in thc gold of the sun, upon the dainty dew-drops as they scamper down from the heavens. He pauses over his task and smiles as he sends a hit of the rainbow, for hope. to some mortal below. A sigh escapes his lips as he sends a cloud into ai life. He sends a song bird to the heart of oneg the toll of chimes to the soul of another. He sends a dawn to a newfborn life and a twilight to those who are called. In his great blue hook, inscribed in stars, are the lives of each mortal.

In a quiet wood where the sound of the heart is like the tramping of a mighty army and the endless sky suggests itself infinitely through the foliar roof, the external and the internal blend themselves into a nameless nnityg there where the fabled deities tire and breathe without sound, there where the paths are paved with the silence that is golden, in that place is the heaven men dream of. Last night, looking across the drear lake, I saw the eloquent waves and knew their maddening truth. I saw them marching on, taking with them no water, but only an ever-constant. immaterial shape, a transient mold for the wish of the wind, and I felt that they were not waves, but men. I thought of Athens, of Rome, and of New York a thousand years hence: I thought of the races that have gone hcfore and nf those that shall come after, and saw the stars wink knowingly, and knew that the nations are but movements in the restless dust.
