Your ideals stimulate us to higher standards of thinking—to greater achievements. With grateful, loving hearts. We dedicate our Wizard to you. our parents. £-2 Foreword TT is our hope, as the postman, the bearer of good will at Christmas, car- ries news of the outer world into all our homes, that the 1930 Wizard. the recorder of the events of the school year, will interpret the life of Edison High School to all our homes. In addition to summarizing and vivifying the activities of the school year, as is the responsibility of an annual, we have endeavored to present in pictures the links of our educational system, to explain the comparatively new and somewhat parallel positions of the visiting teacher and the school counselor, to state the objectives of the various subjects in our curriculum, to give in reality a cross section of the work of every pupil. To do this last, we insert in each pupil’s Wizard his plan card and a sheet of work as done by him in each of his classes. Every Wizard, therefore, is an individual book and there are no duplicates. We who have worked on the staff, have had the privilege to see a complete representation of the work being done in the school. For each pupil the staff has handled at least six pages of work. Since there arc twenty-three hundred pupils in the school, this means that there have been assembled some fourteen thousand pages of work. The supervisors, teachers, and pupils have had opportunities to judge and compare the work being done. Although we reluctantly scatter this collection which has served so good a purpose, we take pride in distributing it throughout this edition of the annual, believing that it will serve its prime purpose, interesting and informing the parents of the work being accomplished. We believe that Edison High School ts living up to the objectives of education Table of Contents BOOK ONE BOOK TWO BOOK THREE BOOK FOUR BOOK FIVE School Guides School Members School Aspirations School Work School Chuckles THE FIRST OBJECTIVE OF EDUCATION Wise Use of Leisure Let your daily play be a source of joy and strength, a balance u)heel for your work.

THE SEVENTH OBJECTIVE OE EDUCATION Worthy Home Membership Magnify your home as the center of a life that is happy, useful, and unselfish. Home is the soil in which the spirit grows, due your best. Quincy Street Entrance Our Door to Opportunity Twenty-Second Avenue Our Path to Education Education is a matter of self-improvement. It may be carried on either in school or out of school. It may be either formal or informal. Schools were erected and maintained, and formal education was introduced for the purpose of saving time and short-cutting the processes of informal education. Schools select the knowledge they will teach, life pursues a hit or miss method: schools organize their knowledge, life depends upon accidental relations; schools work with definite purposes in mind, life shifts its purposes constantly. But schools alone cannot educate students: they cannot create ability, they cannot create the will to learn. Without purpose, industry and studiousness on the part of the student, schools fail. Education is therefore a mutual process: society provides the opportunity for education through the schools, but the individual must avail himself of that opportunity if education is to result. Lotus D. Coffman. President. University of Minnesota School Guides Louis G. Cook, Principal THE: Board of Education, the superintendent, the supervisors. the principal, the assistant principal, the counselor, the nurse, the visiting teacher, the teachers, the parents are all working with one hope—the hope that each child upon leaving school will find himself as nearly physically perfect as possible, well poised, enthusiastic, trained and willing to earn his own living, determined to treat his neighbor as himself, and always aspiring for the higher and better things of life. This hope is based on our common belief in the splendid possibilities of modern youth. f Ruth Fitch Cole. Assistant Principal WHEN you show your book, your friends will marvel at the wonders of Edison. They will say that things have changed since they went to school. Truly you have splendid opportunities. Have you stopped to think that you arc working for exactly the same things your parents were working for in the small one room school house with one teacher? Truth does not change. Friendliness and courtesy arc still priceless. Hard work wins success and happiness. Honor stands before all else.

KOCKEN was made school counselor in September, 1927. Miss Kocken has an A. B. degree from the University of Nebraska,,an A. M. degree and a professional diploma as Vocational Counselor from Columbia University,■ New York City. Inspiration—information—participation arc the keynotes of the counseling service of the Minneapolis public schools. As educational and vocational guidance arc the chief responsibilities of the school counselor, her specific aim is to aid students in recognizing when choices have to be made and to assist them in obtaining the facts necessary to satisfactory decisions. The counselor meets the eighth grade pupil in his own school home as a member of a group and as an individual. Through the contacts made in several visits he is made to feel that the counselor is interested in him. in his special abilities and in his'achlevements. EIGHTH GRADE HOME ROOM ADVISER.

TODD has been visiting teacher at Edison since 1922. She is an experienced social worker. She says that children as well as grown-ups have problems. It is natural for the Edison student, because of the permanent advisory system, to make his first appeal when he is troubled to his friend, the adviser: but often the problem is too much involved for one who must spend regular hours in the class room, to solve. Unless the student has help at this time, his work will suffer. The Board of Education has recognized this and has provided a worker known as the visiting teacher to whom the student may come directly for advice and assistance. The work of the visiting teacher is done always with the thought of the good of the child uppermost in her mind. U' x-aiV ir our a neighborhood problem with the help of a parent Twentv-Four T II E 19 3 0 W I Z A K 1) In consultation with staff of the Child Guidance Clinic THEN there is the problem th.it directly concerns the child—his inability to become interested in his work, to make friends in school or out. to get along with members 'of his family or his teachers, to be happy, and to find enjoyment through normal outlets. Often these arc top serious and complicated for the visiting teacher to fathom unaided. The Board of Education has again made provision to meet this individual need. The Child Guidance Clinic, headed by Dr. H. E. Chamberlain and a staff of expert workers, stands ready to give help to the parents, to the child, and to the teacher, as needed. It is only with the helpfulness of the sympathetic parent, the understanding teacher and student body, the loyal alumni, and the socialized members of the community that good may come out of visiting teacher work. 28.000 miles—on school bittiness An older student it needed lor coaching: the response seems to be favorable T wen ty-Five T II E 1 9 3 0 W IZARD MISS EVA TOWNSEND Surtr CLERKS The way our school runs depends greatly upon the office staff.

The students who are in the upper twenty-five percent of the class are graded on leadership, service and character by all the faculty members who know them. Then the principal and the faculty members who know the candidates best make the final selection. The new members are installed at a general assembly of the school. The membership is limited at all times to five percent of the 1 1A class, ten percent of the 1 2B class and fifteen percent of the 1 2A class. Edison is proud of its representatives in the National Honor Society.

In its selections the group carefully considers the initiative, efficiency, and dependability of tlie candidate since the tasks performed by him require a predominance of these traits. , The group captains act as minute men. In case of an unexpected absence of an adviser, they take full charge of the group. They solicit subscriptions, collect payments, secure and distribute the school publications: The Record. The Gleam. The Wizard. Their various other duties arc: collecting laboratory fees at the beginning of each semester, taking charge of the balloting for Student Council members, and caring for other matters of school routine. Advisers and students find their service valuable. Thirty GETTING THE RECORD T II E 1 9 3 0 W I Z A R 1) TOP ROW—B OUon, W. Plinke. O. Fundetud. R. Sandeen. V. Ptitttor. A. Shjczek. C. Rmert. J.

S llavrith BANKING COUNCIL THE banking council was established in 1925 under the direction of Miss Ruth Elwell and Miss Anne Dunn, for the purpose of furthering thrift and of forming savings habits among the students of the school. At the beginning of every semester, the advisers of each group appoint a responsible and dependable person ro deposit, every Tuesday morning, the money of any person in his group. Contests have been held frequently to raise the percentage of depositors in the groups. At present there is a blue placard for the winning or honor room of each floor. Many of the rooms have graphs on which they record their rises and falls. You may be sure the bank cashiers make every effort to keep their graph line on a continual up grade. They hope to instill in Edison students permanent habits of thrift. MISS RAMSWjck's group Thirty-One T II E 19 3 0 W IZARD TOP ROW D. Campbell. St. Vicktand. A. Teague. ) Clodek, -K ' .eight.

Thirty-Five The objectives of public school education are constantly changing and will continue to change as long as the civilization in which we live is dynamic and progressive. The aims of education are determined by the problems of life. cAmerican education today is a new problem. We can not learn much'from democracies which have gone before. Neither can we follow the traditions which have been established by the history of our country so far. Because of the fact that popular education in the United States had its origin in the primitive communities of New England which were governed by strong religious motives, where all people had an eager desire to learn to read in order that they could learn to read the Bible, the primary object of education in the beginning was to learn to read. Incidentally, writing, spelling, and ciphering were taught. In the early part of the eighteenth century, reading, writing, and spelling made up the whole curriculum of the common schools. Even now there are many American people who believe that this is the chief objective of popular education. cAbility to read and write means very little in cultural efficiency or good citizenship in the year 1930. If our future citizens are taught to read without being taught to think, it will avail us nothing. A man who reads a partisan newspaper and gets his opinions, political and otherwise, ready-made, is no better than he who votes as his boss or his landlord tells him. We must wipe out illiteracy; but. by so doing, we have only placed in the hands of our people valuable tools for use in acquiring the ability to think. It is not an easy task to state the purposes of public education. The following. however, may do for a brief statement. Public education should reach all the boys and girls in the community and do all that education can do to make them happy, efficient, patriotic, and good citizens. While this statement is brief. it includes much. What are some of the qualities which go to make a happy and efficient citizen? The following outline characterizes the good American citizen today: 1.

ELEVENTH GRADE OFFICERS AND ADVISERS DURING the eleventh grade the class spirit begins to develop. It is then organized with the social advisers and officers as leaders. The class officers take an active part in encouraging efficiency and sportsmanship within the class. When a student enters the tenth grade he is considered a member of the senior high school: he is then successfully launched on his career in scholastic endeavor. The tenth grade is rather a transition period, that is the going across from the junior high school into the activities and serious endeavors of the senior high school. The school spirit is then developed in each individual and he feels himself in heart as well as in mind a member of Edison. The honor students here presented have fully caught the meaning of school life. Tenth Grade Honor Students TOP ROW—F. Karkula. C. Rtthtiar. L. Lanon. L. Jtmtn. I. S'tlton THIRD Row—P. Hinman.

SEVENTH AND EIGHTH GRADE HONOR STUDENTS THE seventh and eighth grades of the junior high school are here represented by their honor students, those pupils who are outstanding as to scholarship in that they have acquired the 2.3% average. The students in these lower grades are already active in Edison, as is shown in their inter-class activities such as the Junior Orchestra and Glee Club. Then they present to both schools the Thanksgiving Programs in which the early colonial life of America is dramatized. Ninth Grade Honor students TOP ROW-—Callerttom. C. Engman, C. Hickman. SI.

Sixiy-Thttt From the viewpoint of a hoard of Education, the education of youth is a many sided project which has to be approached from many angles. Not only must it be viewed from the standpoint of psychology which has to furnish the underlying principles. nor yet from the standpoint of pedagogy which is concerned with the actual methods and processes of working out the project. Moth of these objectives are vitally important and are the bedrock of any system that deals with the rearing of youth. But Boards of Education have to go farther than that. y4s public servants, elected by the vote of the people, they are accountable to that public for wise and careful administration of the greatest public institution—The Public Schools. Boards of Education are entrusted with the discovery of needs of the community in the matters of education, with the expenditure of the public funds, and the selection of competent leadership, all of which create the physical conditions under which the widest aims may be realized—namely, the fitting of youth for becoming a useful citizen in the community where he lives and the development of highest standards of character.

Chalgren Gertrude Chalgren - Lorraine Rienki brings to of service Eleanor Lawrence Stornty-Thrrr cft[ot so very many years ago, that type of education which served the greatest good of the greatest number was classed as satisfactory, and by the greatest number was meant the greatest number of those who attended public schools. Today no type of education is successful which does not offer opportunities for one hundred percent of the children of a community. It is hard to appreciate the tremendous growth in high school education that has taken place in the last fifteen or twenty years and the extent to which the earlier traditions of education have been broken down. I presume that the economical thing for me to do would be to quote the seven objectives of secondary education, but perhaps a single sentence will do as well. Secondary education of today, in order to be counted successful, must take into account the almost revolutionary changes that are taking place in our society today and must adapt every child who comes within the range of its influence to the innumerable phases of this society. I submit that this is a rather large order. L. N. McWhorter. Assistant Superintendent of Minneapolis Public Schools.

Chairman Frances Cowan Vesta Seaman Edith Gillies ENGLISH TO glean from the pages of literature a genuine joy and a knowledge of mankind, to express experiences aptly and beautifully as a result of such contact with great minds in literature—these are the goals for which our students of English strive. l argely through the channels of expression and vision come the situations which make life happier and fuller. Our department concerns itself with helping the students to discover for themselves the expressional situations out of which their experiences may be brought. Lenore Andrist Gladys Hobbs Mildred Ward Grace Garland StVtnty-Six T II E 19 3 0 W I Z A R D Minerva Hixon Della Braden Edna Sorenson Esther Challman Evelyn Hulten Catherine Pinney Ellen white THIS discovery is made largely through training in enriching their vocabularies. gaining fluency in expression, and sharing their experiences by relating them to others: thus they develop a working power in self expression. Through literature the students are able to travel far. to meet and know people, and to hear their secrets through the printed pages. Contacts of this nature give them the pleasure of a widened career. Once they have learned to make these contacts, they have assured themselves of contentment, joy. and companionship. anna Dunn Anna Johnson Geneva Jennings Thelma Larson Stvinty-Stvtn T II K 1 9 3 0 W IZARD TOP ROW—A BlaneharJ.

The departments of the publication—essay, story, poetry, editorial, and humor—are such that all ambitious students should find it within their literary range to contribute each semester. An editorial staff is chosen from each class, and an issue of the magazine is presented to the school twice a year. To further stimulate interest in writing, the staff often offers a prize for the best story or poem.

Edith Wentz Celia Torney Ingwal Ostreim Helen Curry Eighty-Nine T II E 1 9 3 � W IZARI) ATHEMATICS is fundamental to the civilization of today. In its simplest forms it touches very closely the daily life of most of us. who buy and sell, build and protect property, earn and spend. It enters into our recreation, our games, our pastimes. We are so used to taking things for granted that we Overlook what it has meant to develop our number system to the point at which it now stands. We have taken a long time to develop accuracy in measurement and to reach our present idea of precision. We are everywhere surrounded by arrangement, regularity and order. The number system, the mathematical formulas of algebra and geometry have helped the race to organize the world in which we live—a world which is mathematical to the core. These things could never have been accomplished by untrained minds, minds not accustomed to systematic, precise and accurate thinking. So in addition to finding evidences of mathematical thinking in our individual lives, we find that everywhere the world is concerned with quantity, shape and size. Commercially, measurement is neccsssary throughout the history of the simplest article manufactured, from its designing through its production, its sale and its consumption. The scientific world could not exist without mathematics. There would be no maps, no navigation, no transportation, no air service, no knowledge of the movements of sun and planets, and therefore, no accurate measurement of time. Industry is indebted to mathematics and surely the business world is dependent upon the higher as well as the simpler forms. In the affairs of the whole world then, a mind that is mathematically trained has the advantage. The young person wishing to enter any field of activity would find himself seriously handicapped without the mathematical equipment necessary to open the way.

The study of a foreign language has a secondary but very important objective: the development of desirable habits of sustained attention, orderly procedure. ideals of achievement, perseverance, accuracy, and thoroughness: ideals which it is hoped the student will carry over into other subjects and into postschool days. The Latin and French instructors aim to develop for the students an historical perspective and a cultural background by a study of the life, history, institutions, mythology, religion and customs of the foreign nations, and of the contributions of these peoples to the later western civilization. All languages are dependent one upon another: the modern languages are in a state of growth and development and the process of borrowing is continuous. It is an interesting study for the student to trace a word of his own language back to its origin and thus to realize that language is a living, growing thing. Latin Italian Spanish FRE:NCH English fructus frutto fruta fruit fruit infans infante infante enfant infant gloria gloria gloria gloire glory generalis generale general general general flos fiore fior fleur flower A habit of enjoyment thus created should lead to an interest in foreign things and the desire to read about them. A further reason for teaching a foreign language is that it supplies the best introduction to a deeper understanding of a foreign nation's character and achievements, as shown in its history, literature, art institutions and customs.” “Such knowledge will strengthen the fraternal bond and increase motives of peace and goodwill between foreign countries and us.” Ninrtu-Ont T H E 1 9 3 0 W I Z A R D Vicillc Porte a Never Cathedrale 6 Rpuen knfree d'e'gli e a Guimpcr Xintty-T u’o 1 9 3 0 VV I Z A R 1) T II E LATIN POSSIBLY no other subject in the high school has experienced a greater upheaval within the last ten years than Latin. The reasons are legitimate and apparent. Education has become democratized, and is no longer planned for a few choice intellects who will go on to college but for those who will pass from high school out into the working world. The university has withdrawn its previous demand for four years of Latin, and merely rerommends two years as advisable for special colleges such as engineering, medicine, law. and pharmacy. As a result of the change in college entrance requirements and the building of a curriculum rich in occupational subjects, the traditional four year Latin course has merged into a two year course in many schools. With the acceptance of this shortened time unit has come a marked change in the content of the work, especially in the second year. Whereas the pupil used to spend all his second year painfully and haltingly pursuing Caesar through his four campaigns in Gaul, he now studies selections only from this great general and historian and spends the rest of his time in reading stories that reveal the religion, myths, genius, customs and laws of the Romans upon whose civilization all subsequent civilization is based. The so-called Latin Grammar that used to fill the entire first year is now spread over the two years, and easy connected reading begins during the first weeks of the new language study. An attempt is made to make the new course of foreign language study as rich and vital as possible, by introducing into these first years many historical facts, classical allusions, myths and anecdotes that formerly belonged to the third and fourth years. Even the nomenclature is changed—LATIN GRAMMAR and CAESAR. fearsome names that used to cause mental anguish to both parent and child around the evening study table, are now masquerading under the innocent-sounding titles. First Year Latin and Second Year Latin. Yet the student is just as surely learning amo. amas. amat. and Gaul is still being divided into three parts. and Caesar is building his immortal bridge across the Rhine. and the Belgians are still the bravest of all these. whether it be called CAESAR or Second Year Latin. Although the customary four year course is giving way in many schools to a two year course, and the traditional Caesar year contains little Caesar, yet this is revolutionary merely in subject matter, the ultimate aims of studying Latin remains the same: 1. An increased knowledge of the English language (three-fifths of the words of the English language are of Latin origin.) 2. Increased knowledge of the principles of English grammar. 3. Increased ability to appreciate historical and cultural background. 4. Increased ability to learn other foreign languages. (Latin is called the Mother of the Romance languages: Spanish. French, and Italian.) 5. Increased ability to pursue other difficult subjects with accuracy and thoroughness. “I am strongly in favor of continuing the classics in an academic education. I consider that, in addition to the mental discipline which study of them affords, they are the most helpful in the matter of correct English style, in laying sound foundations for grammatical construction, and in furnishing a basis for the study of all modern languages ' —William Howard Taft.

It gives ten thousand motives to adore: Be it religious, as it ought to be. The heart it humbles, and it hours the knee. Abraham Coles THE purpose of science is twofold: the acquisition of the scientific method of thinking and the accumulation of useful facts concerning the physical universe. The scientific method teaches a pupil to gather data from careful observation, to discard irrelevant material, to compare the acquired facts with those previously known, and to draw a logical conclusion. The knowledge of science enables a pupil better to adjust himself to his surroundings and gives him an appreciation of the truths of nature which enrich his life. What a worthy aim is the enrichment of life! When one sees hordes of people, strangers to the world in which they live, unaware of its beauties, unmoved by its wonders, trying to fill the void with artificially produced spectacles, he becomes aware of the value of science to humanity. He who has made friends of the stars, who has attuned his ear to the songs of the birds, who awaits their arrival, and laments their departures, who predicts the weather from the shifting winds and nature's other signals, who knows the haunts, and shares the secrets of timid wild life, need never be alone or strange. He has the whole universe for his playground.

But through this magic of chemistry these two elements have been robbed of their violence and are welcome in every household.

One can see many interesting things there—tropical plants, fish, some small alligators, newts, snails, and turtles. Also, there arc several palm trees which have been raised from tiny plants. Not only tropical plants but also well known flowers are grown in the greenhouse. At the present time. Mr. Benner believes that he has over 10.000 seedlings. By late spring these will be sold to school pupils. This is done every year to arouse Clyde Hanson. Donald HAI.BERG interest in botany. The greenhouse helps to decorate the school.

Ninttv-Sint T II v E 1 9 3 0 V I Z A R D GENERAL SCIENCE AND BIOLOGY GENERAL SCIENCE and Biology are the science courses in the high school curriculum which the ninth and tenth grade student may take. Since the student takes General Science in the ninth grade, the course must meet two requirements: for those students who take no further courses in science while in high school, it must be a finishing course: for those who do elect further science, courses in the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades, it must serve as a preparatory course. To inculcate the scientific habit of mind, which consists in looking for the reasons and relations of the things a student sees about him. rather than the accumulation of unrelated facts, is the result desired from such a course. Therefore. the point of view must be synthetic rather than analytic and an attempt must be made to correlate facts derived from the many fields of science and to discover their practical value in helping the student solve his every day problems more efficiently and more intelligently. The place in which the student finds himself is the center of the universe for him and therefore, the most logical starting point. The air which surrounds him and which he must breathe is as important to him as some newly discovered, obscure fact in a field of science far removed from his interests and activities. In a study of air. emphasis is placed on understanding why air is necessary to life. Machines are studied but with the definite goal in mind of helping the student estimate the value of a few of the many present day labor devices so that he can use them to help him perform more efficiently his daily tasks in this machine age. To give the student useful as well as basic information of an elementary nature is the objective of a ninth grade General Science course. Biology, which is an elective course for students in the tenth grade is. as its name implies, a study of living things. Instead of being a specialized course covering intensively a narrow field of knowledge, it offers a broader survey of some of the structure, physiology, and the economic importance of both plants and animals. An attempt is made to understand the interdependence of all living things with emphasis upon the important relationship between plants and animals: to increase the students’ knowledge of the plants and animals with which he is already familiar and to acquaint him with some of the myriad living things of which he is not aware: to show the intimate relation of biological science to human welfare.” and above all to increase his enjoyment and understanding of the natural life about him. Individuals are always interested in themselves, and one of the aims of the biology course is to give the student a scientific knowledge of the most wonderful and complex of all living things—the human being. Human physiology and hygiene, therefore, are carefully studied, always with the knowledge in mind that “health is born and should be expected: disease is for the most part made and should be excluded.

Mental characteristics, preferences, and abilities are so widely varied that the old traditional field of learning is too limited and is without appeal to the great number of the more practically inclined. The sole purpose of business training is not the making of dollars. With this training goes much of the cultural advantages of the academic education, plus a most useful and salable practical skill. The direct objectives of the Commercial Course are: 1. To imparl knowledge and skills useful in everyday practical life and activities. 2. To prepare pupils directly for business. 3. To teach fundamental principles by which students advance in business. 4 To impart qualities of initiative, independence, honesty, integrity, good citizenship.

The function of this department is not unlike that of any other: we arc all offering to the best of our abilities all the assistance possible, to the end that we may develop in each individual boy the fundamental and essential characteristics, habits, and attitudes necessary to generate a one hundred per cent man of the future. The Industrial Arts department differs from other departments in the school in the method of application of knowledge and the medium through which it is applied, class demonstration and individual laboratory work being the prevailing practice. The shops of this department are well equipped. They are Machine Shop. Pattern Making. Cabinet Making, Mechanical Drawing. Electricity. Printing and Sheet-metal. Auto-mechanics will be added next term. In this mechanical age the practical type of work available through these shops makes a great appeal to the majority of boys, especially to the boy who is interested in a line of work where the visible product of his labor is evident and the tangible results may be enjoyed. It is through this manipulative interest that the many other closely related and often more important phases of life's fundamentals are generated and absorbed It is a very common thing to find a boy who cannot sec any value in academic courses of the school. The boy should not be blamed nor should he be accused of not having a goodly supply of brain matter. In cases of this kind it often develops that the realization of values ii too deeply hidden for him to comprehend at his age or in his present state of development. It is during this period of adolescence and unlocalized interest that the shops maintain their stabilizing influence: holding the boy's interest in school until the time when he realizes the opportunities that surround him. It takes some boys several years for this awakening to the need of a broader education. In cases where no interest could be stimulated for a general education all the stress could be thrown into some branch of industrial work and the boy acquire a training which will enable him to go out and secure a much better job than otherwise would be possible. These boys should be kept in a vocational class Surgeons, dentists, and men of other professions wherein a high degree of manipulative skill is one of the chief elements of success, arc very emphatic in their recommendation of shop courses for foundation training. There is a phase of development in shop work whose value is often overlooked, and that is one where the boy has gotten the idea that he intends to be some special kind of a mechanic, for example, a machinist. He has an opportunity while in school to try out this line of work His abilities arc soon tested and he may find out that it is not at all what he wanted: he still has an opportunity to change to some other line and find a branch in which he may be more proficient. In such cases the department has functioned to a very high degree in that it has saved society from having another misfit and has given the boy another chance.

The desire for it is an instinct which grows stronger every time that desire is fulfilled. As our country develops, new demands are made for beauty in the ordinary things of every day life as well as in the purely aesthetic or ornamental things. Business men have found that beauty pays, and new fields are opened up to the student who intends to make art his profession. The high school art course forms a background for later artistic pursuits. However, the greater number of students will make use of art in a non-professional way. They will use it every day in their homes, their dress, their community. In recognition of this. New York City during the past year, has made art appreciation a required, not an elective subject, and the next decade may see many schools following that example. Appreciation of beauty can be developed by the unspoken messages of beautiful surroundings: through conscious study of the work of great artists: or through the creation of beauty by our own efforts. In the art work in the public schools, we try to combine these in such a way that the largest number of students will find a new outlet for expression, and a new joy in familiar things. “ ‘Beauty is truth, truth beauty' that is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.

The students of Edison love good music. In assemblies when really fine music is rendered all is quiet and one can feel an intense interest. This interest also manifests itself in the number of students taking work in our six voluntary music classes. Senior Glee Club. Junior Glee Club. Senior Orchestra. Junior Orchestra. Band and Harmony, in which 347 students, or approximately fifteen percent of the student body are registered. These fifteen percent are the students who enjoy doing the larger things and who possibly are planning to make music either their vocation or avocation. To them symphonic numbers by Beethoven, oratorios by Mendelssohn or Hayden, are as fascinating as a Shakespearian drama or a Raphael are to a student of literature or art. The wisdom of required chorus is questioned by some. However, educators all over the country have seen fit to include it in the school curriculums. Of course the first reason is that every student may become familiar with this art as well as the other arts. What a pity it would be if eighty-five percent of our young people (as indicated by the figures above) graduated from high schools unable to actually participate in any way in the production of this most universal art. God gave us all a voice, the most beautiful of all instruments. Have we any right to deny our young people this expression? In addition to its value as an art. music, as Dr. Elliot tells us. “Is the best mind trainer on the list. On one page of music often as many as seventy-five to one hundred marks (not including notes) must be observed, and at a given speed. The third time through, the ideal is to have all notes, words, and expressions memorized. To some this may seem beyond reason, but it is surprising how quickly songs are mastered by students who have learned to concentrate. The opportunity to think and act quickly, and to give him the chance to express himself, and occasions to feel with the people of all ages—these are the invaluable gifts that the department of music would bestow upon every student.

Ont Hundred Sixteen T H E 1 9 3 0 WIZARD Jean Robertson SIGHT SAVING EDUCATION today is being adapted to the various needs of individuals. One of these adaptations is the Sight Saving class which makes it possible for boys and girls with no vision or defective vision to obtain an education under the same conditions as their more fortunate brothers and sisters. Formerly these people did one of two things: they struggled along in regular classes or they entered an institution. The former often meant failure, and the latter meant getting an education in an unnatural world, in a world that was different from the one they would enter when their school days were over. They left school, where they had known no companions with vision better than their own. to compete with men and women who saw more and easier than they did. Then followed an adjustment that was difficult and often impossible to make. Today, in the Sight Saving class, these boys and girls from the beginning compete on an equal footing with individuals of normal vision. They take their places in the class room as they expect to in life, asking no favors because of their handicap. Most of the students in the class do very little eye work. Their lessons are read to them or copied in large type and many adaptations are made in written work. The typewriter is used entirely in place of pen and ink: a special type of unglazed paper and a pencil with a dark soft lead are used for work in mathematics. Maps printed in a large clear type, specially made graph paper, large type books, etc., are also a part of the equipment. On Hundrtd Cighirtn T II E 1 i 3 0 WIZARD Ray Parkins Florence Conki.in Anne Doornink Harry Miller PHYSICAL EDUCATION PHYSICAL education as an integral part of the educational scheme requires a looking toward the future of citizenship. The lessons of life we feel are brought forcibly before all in the activities in and about the physical education department: in the gymnasium class, the physical education programs and exhibitions, the intra-mural games, inter-class games and the inter-scholastic games. With this in mind, it is an aim of the department to foster those ideals so necessary in maintaining a worthy citizenry. Knowledge of the development and care of the body, promoting the health and happiness of the individual is an immediate aim of the Physical Education department. It is hoped to fix in the minds of those taking the work, a realization of the pleasures of health and the resultant efficiency. Pupils arc given a physical examination and made aware of their defects, or. degree of perfection they may have reached. From the result of the physical examination much of the formal program ensues. The student may apply much of his training in subsequent years and feel competent to apply his knowledge in keeping fit to pursue life. Recreational activities now hold a prominent place in the program of the gymnasium. Through the instruction in the various games the pupil becomes the better prepared to find a form of recreation to suit the need of adult life. Physical education classes are instructed in the fundamentals of all the sports to which they may aspire. Instruction in games commonly played is given in class and in after years no graduate need feel hesitant to enter the field of recreation for health's sake—a situation so often met by adults of today.

Last year the Sophomores showed their acquaintance with the hoop by taking the championship. After this tournament the annual Basketball Banquet was given for the winners. Interest in the basketball dinner was heightened by the announcement of the mythical team, representing the best talent in the contest. This team is selected by the basketball coach and is veiled in deep mystery previous to its announcement. SKATING IN working for a letter, for which only G. A. A. girls are eligible, skating gives the girls one hundred points for fifty hours practise. The girls are headed by Amy Bloomgren. At Jackson and Logan the girls sign up the amount of time they have skated. As no final contest was held, the champion, who was Florence Page this year, was the one who had the most points. A party was given at Jackson as a fitting climax for this exhilarating sport: from Jackson, the girls went to the Y. W. C.

The game was straight, hard football, consisting of line plunges and end runs. John Hafich made many gains for the seniors with long, small-town end runs, while Sam Fontana and Allan Humrickhouse did the line plunging with aid of a fast, powerful forward wall that opened up many holes for them. The sophies put up a good scrap and the game might have gone to either team until the last quarter when the sophies tried a long forward pass from about midfield, which was intercepted and led to the one touchdown of the game. The goal was kicked and from then on the seniors had the advantage right up to the final gun. The games for the most part in the inter-class grid schedule this season were real ones and a fine spirit of sportsmanship prevailed throughout the entire season.

There was a time, that basketball was the only game for which class teams were organized, but in the fall of 1928 Coach Ray Parkins interested the boys in forming class grid teams. His main purpose being to find any hidden talent or players who might have the ability to make the school squad. Coach Parkins appointed members from the regular squad to take charge of these class teams. They proved themselves capable assistants and the result was four strong football teams which fought it out for the inter-class grid title that year. Last fall when Coach Parkins issued the call for inter-class football candidates. each of the eight upper classes were represented in the turnout and an eight game schedule was drawn up. Again Coach Parkins called on the members of the school squad to come to his aid and take over the class teams.

The prospects at the beginning of the season pointed strongly in the same direction but due to some hard luck the team lost three letter-men: Don Roe. John Hogan, and Carleton Bordeau. The loss of these athletes was a serious blow, and it was undoubtedly the cause of the series of setbacks which the team suffered. Dominic Cruciani proved to be the most outstanding runner on the team. He scored thirty-five out of a possible forty-five points, and. as a reward for his success, he was elected captain of the team for the oncoming season. Runner-up was Captain George Gola.

Coach Parkins’ boys defeated the Red-Blue cagers in both contests with them. These two victories put the Blue-Gold men in a tie with the Mitchell men. Coach William’s Tigers downed the Wizards in both games against them. The last Orange-Black game against the Tommies ended in a 30-29 score in favor of South. The Tommies played brilliant ball in this game, and all through the season against other quints. This year’s team kept up the wonderful record that the Inventors have set year after year. They have never finished the season below third place. Edison is credited with two championships, and they also were runner-ups in the state tournament two years ago.

Although some of them did not participate in many of the well played games, the few who played showed great form. Dominic Kreszowski. is the only one representing the frosh class. Merlin Trepp. Ralph Young. Edward Glininany. Frank Fignor. and Joe Kosciolek. are the prospects developed from the juniors: L.uvern J urgeon. from the sophomore class. Mike Mikulak led his team mates during this season with 99. He also ended the season in third place in the individual scoring race, “'red'’ Tomaszewski followed Mike with 61. Dick Ruprecht next with 59. Joe Misccncik came next in line with 42. and last but not least of the regulars. “Skin Johnson with 19. Besides the four lettermcn the 1931 cage team will be built around players who participated in teams in the Intra-mural league. These boys gained considerable experience playing in the close Intra-mural games, and the candidates for the new team should be promising material for the coming season.

Its purpose was to develop some good prospects who can hold a regular position on the school squad next season and to promote general physical development. The teams which turned out were: Wizards. Inventors. Tommies. Blue Streaks. Flashes. Margaret Barry Elks. Logan Park Elks, and Chippewas. These teams were made up of boys attending Edison and not on the school team. The games were played every Tuesday night. Many styles of playing were demonstrated. The Inventors. Wizards, and Blue Streaks appeared to show the best form, although the Flashes and the Tommies should not be left out of that class. The season s play was a hot race between the Inventors. Wizards, and Blue Streaks with one defeat against each and the Flashes and Tommies with two defeats each. 'The season closed with the Wizards running off with the trophy.

The difference is that the Inter-Class teams represent the four upper grades: ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth: while Intra-Mural teams consist of any persons interested in this sport. These games were played every Saturday morning. Many good prospects were developed in this way. The games were well worth watching as many well organized teams came to the school to develop some fundamentals of basketball. The 11 A. 1 1B. 10B. and 9B proved superior. The elimination process followed a round-robin schedule, and the 11A and the 1 OB had the chance to fight it out to decide the championship. The game was played and the 11A proved the stronger, winning the championship 34 to 14. Ont Hundred ForlvThrtt T II E 19 3 0 W I Z A R I) Blub Streaks Top Row—K. Miller. li. Diintt. F.

West won the city championship and North was runner up. Each year the Wizard golfers have been in the thick of the fight, and with four letter-men back, the prospects are bright: Coach Janes expects the team to finish high in the race this spring. Although golf is a minor sport in the Minneapolis high schools, it is now one of the most popular spring activities at Edison. The school is very favorably located with Columbia Park links so near at hand, and consequently the team has always had good practice. Norman Johnson, who was the 1929 captain, is the only member of the fall squad who was lost by graduation in January. Last fall a captain was appointed for each meet in the same manner as the University does. One Hundred Foetu Six T II E 1 9 :3 0 W I Z A R 1) TOP ROW—C, Mdltmury. V. Simontoo. S.

With three of last fall's letter-men back. Coach Charles Lein has high hopes of the team finishing well up among the leaders this spring. The two boys lost to the team by graduation last fall are: Norman Johnson, a four year letter-man. and Forest Oliver. The net team did not elect a captain for the season last fall: instead one was appointed for each match by the coach. A year ago last fall Coach Lein took over the team composed of a few veterans and much green material, but too much credit can not be given him for his splendid service in coaching it.

Coach Harry Miller has had much success in the development of sprinters and distance runners, but this has not been true in the field events, which consist of javelin throw, shot put. discus throw, pole vault, and high jump, due to a lack of available material. The half-mile relay team, composed of Don DeCoursey. William Ripkin, Alfred Blanchard, and Walter Smith, was Edison's strongest feature. This fine combination established the record of 1 :40.8 at the Gopher relays, and placed high among the leaders in the majority of the meets held during the season.

Each gym class of the junior high school is presented. Tryouts are held in the various gym classes and those winning among the first places in each event automatically entered in the finals of this annual classic. Last season nearly fifty boys took part in the finals, and several new records were established in the dashes and field events. The first four places in each event were counted for individual points. Prize ribbons were awarded for the first three places in like manner. Coach Miller’s purpose in holding this annual track meet is to stimulate greater interest, and encourage boys to continue in this excellent sport. One Hundred Foflu-Nint A PERSON S education is measured by the qualities he has developed that increase his happiness, efficiency and capacity to take his place in the community life. If he has had the best high school education, he should have attained mental and moral health and should meet his responsibilities as a matter of course. Moreover, his activities will be wholesome with physical and mental energy for each objective. He should think accurately. He should know where and how to get needed information. He should have formed the habit of reading worthwhile books. Together with these attainments, he should have gained some sense of his debt to the people about him. and have caught the spirit of service to society in general. Education is a totality of all these qualities. G. A. Countryman. Librarian One Hundred Fitiu School Chuckles A Heavy Date T II E 10 3 0 W I Z A R D A PRJZ.CD PINNOCUIO. OLD EDITION .
