Sverhire Behitatiun E, the Senior and Junior Classes of 1926- 1927, do hereby dedicate this book to the growth of that intangible but vitalizing force, School Spirit, which expresses itself in service, and which must be predominant in every school that aspires to attain the heights of success and the feeling of fellowship and loyalty. He who, forgetting self, makes the object of his life service, helpfulness, and kind- ness to others, finds his 'whole nature growing and expanding, himself becoming large-hearted, magnanimous, kind, sympathetic, joyous and happy, his life becom- ' ing rich and beautiful. Four Jlr. Lloyd l', Srfybolrl Zin Memoriam HE tragic and untimely death of Mr. Lloyd C. Seybold on September 29, 1926 took from our midst one of our most respected and highly honored eitizensp for Mr. Seybold in the many years of l1is association with the work of this city had proven himself to be a man interested in the good things in life and the good things of this community, active in the civic opportunities and responsibilities for better- ment, and loyal to the best interests of his fellow citizens. In July 1925 Mr. Seybold was elected to the Board of Education, and at the time of his death was serving as President of the Board. The appreciation of his services and high regard was expressed hy the following resolution adopted by the Board on Uctober 2, 1926: VVhereas God in His infinite wisdom has seen fit to call Mr. Lloyd C. Seybold, President of the Board of Education, from our midst, be it resolved that we express our sincere appreciation of his excellent service' to the school interests and conmmn- ity, and his loyalty and faithfulness to duty. He served the citizens of this school district with high honor, honesty. sincerity, and abilityf' Mr. Seybold was born in Adams County, near the village of Lenox. Iowa. on May 10, 18811. In 1900 the family moved to a farm near Corning, Iowa. and two years later to a farm near Morris, Minnesota. VVhile assisting on the farm Mr. Seybold attended the rural schools near Lenox, attended the Academy at Corning, and in 1905 graduated as an honor pupil from the High School at Morris. Soon after the completion of his high school work, Mr. Seybold came to Inter- national Falls and in the fall of 1906 began the work of constructing the first tele- phone system for the International Telephone Company. Mr. Seybold continued until the time of his death as superintendent of the telephone company, and of late years of the Itainy River Improvement Company. On July 9, 1919, Mr. Seybold was united in marriage to Miss Gladys Yernberg of Duluth, Minnesota, who, with two children, William Lloyd and Rosemary, sur- vive him. Fire in J From u Copley!

Reproduced 1111 permission. jfurrmnrh T is the purpose of this, the second volume of the Northern Lightf' to present in permanent form the natural beauties of the nort'h, and to portray to the school and to the community, school life in the year 1926-19275 to serve as a memoir of high-school days for ourselves and for the alumnig to stimulate future progress in school activitiesg and to interest those who are to follow in higher ideals of school life. In presenting this book, we hope that the Northern Light will hereafter be a yearly publication, and that later staffs will be able to produce better books through the cooperation of the student body. We, the Senior and Junior Classes of 1926-- 1927, have strived to make this book a success, and we hope that it will be cher- ished by everyone as a link connecting the dear old school days with the days of harder work, where the lessons taught us in school will come into full use. The staff desires to express its appreciation of the interest and enthusiasm shown by the student body and alumni, in their willingness and promptness in handing in usable material for the annual. Wlithout such an interest' on the part of the school and its graduates the efforts of a staff would be useless. -LILLY STRAND, Editor-in-Chief. fVIight of the roaring boiler, Force of the engine's thrust Strength of the sweating toiler, Greatly in these we trust Hut hack of them stands the Schemer The thinker who drives things through, Bach of the Joh-the Dreamer TVho's making the dream come true ,IJ Six A . finntrnts 1 W 6 X Bunk nf jlfacultp Bunk nfgdilasses Book of grtihities Bank of humor Bunk of Qlumni E , Q ' :- S , s , .N 3 1 1 , 'E X' , :A i R' SYOAJ 1 WW' i S . fa 511' 'S ' Q, 3 ig, 1 .:iMx,7?3Afz gf A 4 x K' . ,fifgf I ., Q ,Av -nv Up and down flu' river went they In and out among its islands. -Awmgwam. . ww? .Lk,, y., 1 -ff N.

These men are elected by the people, and hold office for three years. This group of six men, with the superintendent of schools as a member, ex officio, appoints teachers, fixes salaries, purchases supplies, makes the school budget, ar- ranges the curriculum, provides for construction of necessary buildings, and equips the schools with the devices necessary for the best educational development of the students. This stupendous task makes it necessary that the board be made up of men who understand the needs of modern education, and who are altruistic enough to devote their time, gratis, to efficiently and successfully look after our city schools. The aim of our board together with the superintendent has been to raise the standards and to make our schools inferior to none in the state. They have aimed to keep in mind the welfare of the students and the community as a whole. Their task is no small one. YVe. the Junior and Senior classes of 1926-1927, realize.the importance of their work, and take this opportunity of expressing our appreciation of what they have done. Their pay, as is the case in many similar important positions, is not in dollars and cents, but in the consciousness of having done their little bit towards advancing the cause of civilization.

The arant idle N a Held where one of the terrific conflicts of the revolutionary war was fought stands a great monument, towering toward the skies, commemorating the lives and work of some of the heroes of the bloody battlefield. The beautiful, white marble shines forth in the sun with a radiance that seemingly hespeaks the brilliant heroism and valor of the men who fought in the battle of the war of independence. ' The monument itself consists of a square base surmounted hy a tall column. Upon ap- proaching the same there appears to be on each of the four basal sides a niche in which the likeness of one of the heroic leaders of the battle forces appear. The niche on the near side of the approach is so filled, also the one on the right, and the one on the left. An inspection of the fourth side reveals, however, a vacant niche. The contrast is so striking it is startling. Why is this niche vacant? And then the tragedy of the event the monument commemorates comes to mind, and reveals the dual purpose it serves. The three niches pre- serve to all future mankind the honored memories of men who served their country and served it well. The vacant niche in like manner preserves the traitorous act of one who for a time served his country with credit and honor, who had already won a place in its hall of fame, but who failed it completely in an hour of need. The vacant niche belonged to Benedict Arnold, traitor to his country. The high school years are intensely vital because the habits formed, the ideals established, the character responses made, become the dominant characteristics for all future life. Each pupil makes his influence felt, his deeds count-ffcuts his niche. The high school-the great proving ground of his mettle and worth-should fire each pupil with a determination and an ambition to fill his nichee-not to leave it vacant. -H. H. Pwr!-:RsoN.

Such was tl1e night when I was sitting curled up in a large easy chair before the blazing fire, watching the fantastic pictures and images of flaming red. . All of a sudden, the door opened softly and someone entered, lamenting and murmuring to himself, Alas, how time does Hy! They are Seniors in high school this year. The word useniori' caught my ear, and I turned around to see an old man, with a magnificent long white beard and silvery hair, walking unsteadily with an aged stoop toward the fire. He paused before it gazing at the racing flames with a medi- tative, unobserving stare. 'Four years ago, he continued, they entered high school full of zest and ambi- tion, determined to work hard. Leaving the Freshman greenness behind, they entered the next fall as Sophomores, and were well represented in all activities, winning second place in the swimming meet. They gave a sleighride party and :L dance that year, too. Then last year they came back again as Juniors, resolving to get down to good hard earnest work so as to be so much better fitted for reaching the goal which they were fast approaching. And how well they fulfilled this reso- lution! Look at their social activities, t'l1c success of tl1e Junior-Senior Banquet! Then look at their athletic prowess! Jennie Nagurski, Hjordis Liljeblad and Evelyn Linden, all Junior girls, made the basketball team. And did not' the Junior girls win the trophy cup for the honor of their class? Let's see, who was in that declamatory contest? And the old fellow paused for a moment and rubbed his forefinger up and down his forehead thoughtfully. Oh yes, Dorothy Buckley won second place, and Joe VVit'hrow third, at the district contest. Oh, I almost forgot, one more honor was placed on the class's laurel wreath by Jack Morrison, who won third place at the district commercial contest, which made him eligible for the state contest, but, if I remember rightly, I believe he was unable to go. Now they are Seniors, possessing all the regality and dignity which the word implies. This year, they have undertaken a still larger and more diflicult task than ever, the publishing of a school annual. They have gone about this, as with all of their endeavors, with true conscientious will and grit, and have been rewarded with their usual success. I am hoping that as this class proceeds along the road of life, I willff' I awoke to find that the fire had gone out, the room was chilly and dark, the wind howled around the house in iiendish glee, and the snow beat an unceasing tattoo upon the window panes. -Manouarwrn OIQREN '27, Qlllass Qbfiicers Joi: VV1'ruxovv -----A-- President Donofrux' BUCKI.EX' - - Vice lJIY?SilI!'lIf Gnovmz CQREEN - - Secrniury IALOYD DANIELSON - Treasurer Twenty-Eight 1927 NORTHERN LIGHT 1927 Tureozty-ZVi11e 927 NORTHERN LIGHT 927 Thirty Eluniurs SADIE M.

She, who had been among us all her life, has passed from our ranks. Her jolly and friendly nature gave her a place in all our hearts, and won her many friends, who now Inourn her death. Norma was born .luly 17, 1911, in Chase, British Columbia, Canada. Wlien she was two years of age, she inoved with her parents to their new home on Rainy Lake. After living there four years, they moved into this city, where Norma imme- diately began to attend school at the age of six. VVhen she was a Freshman, her ill health caused her to leave sehool. Gradually her health declined until her death on February 9, 1927. The memory of Norma will linger with us, and we will always think of her among our beloved friends back in the dear school days.

Burnett QBur 3Ianitors HO are almost as much a part of our daily school life as the teachers and their lessons? The Janitors? Yea Bo! For, what would our school be without Bab, Doug, and Burnett? VVouldn't we miss Bab if he didnit come into the commercial room the last period every day? Certainly we would, but wl1o of us ever stops to think of their untiring work for our benefit, their readiness to aid at any time for sale or show? But, think, who would referee for all our basket ball games if we were without Bab, fix the scenery for some Wednesday program if without Mr. Douglas, and keep the swimming pool and locker rooms always ready for use without Mr. Burnett? They are not mere automatons working day after day, but friends striving to make our school life so much better by their labor, friends whom we meet every day in our scholarly halls. The janitors have always been connected with our school days, in the grade school we can dimly remember Mr. McDonald working while we were in our classes, and then, when we reached the old school, which served as the Junior High, Mr. Douglas and Mr. Burnett. And when we were transferred to the new High School, they accompanied us, and theyive been with us ever since. From then on our remembrances are clear, and they are all connected some way or other with Mr. Douglas and Mr. Burnett. Mr. Babcock was added to the force a few years later, and he l1as since played a large part in all our school activities. He is an excellent basketball player and since his arrival among our midst has always refereed all the games, and always with fairness. I have heard it said that one never appreciates a person or a friend till after one has lost him, but I'm sure that that is not the case with our Janitors. I ask again, needlessly I am aware, who plays almost as important a part in our school life as the teacher, the books, and the school rooms? Come, you Juniors and Seniors, give our Janitors the big fifteen! Here's to appreciation of Mr. Douglas, Mr. Bab- cock, and Mr. Burnett of our good old school.

Her, work the first year consisted mainly of training the voices and dividing the classes into their groups. However, the next year, she was called upon to give a great many programs, and not any of the requests went unheeded. The public was very pleased with her work and showed their appreciation by their attendances. In the spring of this second year she gave Bulbul,', an operetta of three acts, which was an overwhelming success. The following year was astonishing, and the musical farce Pochahontas was staged and welcomed by vigorous applause and a great deal of mirth. A notable performance was given by A-Meek, an Indian mother-in-law. Last year, however, unforeseen events occurred, and with the serious illness of Miss Johnson and her disability to continue the classes, the Glee Club was disorganized for the year. But 1926 regained for it its social prominence under the supervision of Miss Valeria Bellig. ' The Glce Club of tllis year has given many applaudable programs at various school entertainments, Parent'-Teachers Association, Kiwanis meetings and many other such organizations. A sextet, a quartet, and several duets have been formed by some of the best voices of the Girl's Glee Club. These groups have often sung to appreciative audi- ences in our auditorium. Considering the fact' that only an hour a week is given for Glce Club practice, this organization is one of the most successful and most pleasing organizations of our school.

Q9r:be5tra RS. LEONE LUND BAKER started not only the Glee Club in our new school, but also the High School Orchestra, the first that had ever made its appearance in our school. The first year was spent in diligent practice, However, the following year brought us many and varied programs. In the spring it furnished tl1e music for the operetta, 'ABulbul. The next year it again pleased its audiences with its music, playing at all the High School functions, and a great many outside programs. Their skill had so increased that at the end of tl1e year it played for the Junior-Senior Prom with great success. Mrs. Baker should certainly be lauded for the zealous three years she spent with us. The fourt'l1 year of its life, however, found it without a director so the organization was rather broken-up. The year 1926 brought Miss Bellig and Mr. Sheel, who instantly reorganized it under their capable instructiong not any other school organization has provided more entertainment and made more progress than this year's High School Orchestra. Each year takes some of the musicians, but it brings others. The orchestra is now composed of ten pieces, all well trained and perfectly co-ordinated. It has always been ready to play for us and has had appreciative audiences in the Junior and Senior High School. Some of tl1e players have given praiseworthy solo selections. Along with his work and participation in tl1e orchestra, Mr. Sheel has organized a five piece Pep Band from the members of the orchestra. All through the athletic season it aided at the Pep fests and basket-ball and football games. This little band certainly puts pep into any of the meetings and its instigation was certainly commendable. We are all hoping that next year will find our Orchestra intact and ready to provide more musical entertainment.

Knrl Shcel 011132 Zgzginnsrs' Cwrcbrstra HE Beginners' Orchestra of 1926-27 is the tirst of its kind to be launched in our school and to all appearances it is successful. All the credit' for this new organization belongs to Mr. Sheel for his instigation of the idea and his tireless work with the would-he musicians. Nevertheless, when we are speaking of this orchestra, it is not to tell what it has done or is doing now, but what it will do in the future, for it will provide material for the forthcoming orchestras which will be all thc better for its mem- bers, youthful training. Musical training is of invaluable benefit to its receiver, and although private lessons are of the greatest worth, it is the playing with other instruments that is the true test of a musicianls abilityg and so, Mr. Sheel is thus not only providing orchestras for future years, but also giving training to young musicians who will find it' most beneficial, and who will some day thank hir. Sheel for the hours he had them practice. So far they have not made any public appearance, and though we could hardly expect one this year we have hopes for next year. VVhen we pass by the door during their practicing hours a variety of diseords is heard issuing from the room, but practice makes perfectl' and all comes to him who waits, so we are waiting for the first program of the Beginners' Orchestra, and hope for another High School Orchestra as entertaining as the one of this year. VVe again praise Mr. Sheel for his admirable work with the young musicians. Fifty-Four 1927 NORTHERN LIGHT 1927 Joe Withrow, Miss L. Hal1'orso'ri tffoachb.

The next year neither added nor detracted from our records for the few participants brought us little notice. Joe Withrow Spent three years in the training that was to take him a long way some day. The first of February 1927 brought a larger number than ever before out to work under Miss Halvorsonis direction. The two partakers in the Oratorical work were Joe VVithrow and Aaron Robertsong Leah Patterson, Clayton Lund, and Bernard Talsness in the humorous: and Marjorie Milland, Dorothy Buckley, Florence Mertens, Marie Maclntyre, Fern Lui, Linea Person, and Winifred Lund in the dramatic. They worked diligently until February 22 and 23, the days of the local contests. The audience of the first evening heard Joe, with his stirring address Blood Will Tell win first place in the oratorical, and Bernard Talsness with his laughable selection, For the Honor of the Family first in the humorous. The judges of the second evening awarded Dorothy Buckley first place in the dramatic with The Soul of the Violin. On March 2, the three with the coach, Miss Halvorson, went to Virginia to compete with Mountain Iron and Virginia at the sub-district contest. There Joe carried off the laurels of Hrst place and Dorothy, second, losing first by one point. Two weeks more of daily drilling trained Joe for the district contest at Aurora where he and Miss Halvorson went March 18. The Falls High School was overjoyed when it learned that Joe was once more victor. At Aurora he had competed with Ely and Eveleth. The regional contest at Duluth found Joe and Miss Halvorson ready to compete with Chisholm, Two Harbors and St. Cloud, and with the whole of International Falls anxiously awaiting the outcome of the evening. Joe proved his worth when he carried off the honors. The governor of Minnesota wouldn't have received more congratulations for a great speech than did Joe and Miss Halvorson upon their return. The school had backed a good man with a good coach and not in vain. Joe was now one of the four from the state that went to the state contest at Minne- apolis, April 15, where he won second place, competing with Stillwater, Fairmont and Long Prairie. While doing honor to Joe we must as he says, Give at least three quarters of the credit to Miss Halvorson, the best coach the Falls High has ever had. She makes a fellow do his best.

To start the affair off right, Mr. Iflwald urged the pupils of the high school to come out, arrayed in whatever eostumes pleased their individual fancies. and parade about the town. Not quite as many appeared as he would have liked, but still a presentablegor rather, unpresentable group appeared, and it attracted a great deal of attention. However, thc memorable night arrived, and with it earue an overwhelming erowd to the school auditorium. The first part of the evening brought forth a five aet vaudeville, which greatly pleased the audience. Two of the most entertaining of the aets were, Hiram Hick's l5and', fthe orchestra attired as farmers gave all the old-fashioned melodiesj, and a Negro Minstrel put on by Aaron Robertson and Grover Green, posing as a negro man and woman. Their conversation, singing, and Charles- toning eaused round after round of applause. The voting for the Carnival Queen, whieh had started Monday continued throughout the evening at a great rate, and finally ended with the election and crowning of Beryl Croasdale. ,Xfter the vaudeville, the gaily decorated gymnasium was thrown open to the public and they heartily responded, for a great erowd surged onto the stage, and partook of the many amuse' ments. Among these were the beauty parlors, fish pond, variety counters, fortune-telling booths, and all sueh affairs that are only found at carnivals. The beauty parlor under the direction of Miss VVinter, drew a large crowd as was plainly shown by the number of boys, men, and girls with highly tinted eomplexions. One of the greatest amusements of the evening was a side-show, whieh ealled the people to come and see the f'attest woman in the world and her husband, the wild man. Altho very wild, Maxwell Macdonald had a hard time taining his still wilder and fatter wife---Robert Bennett. Other erowd-drawers were the Hall of Spoolcsu and the fortune-telling booth, At first all the visitors shivered realisti- cally, more from the idea of the affair than from frightg and at the second, all were told such fine fortunes that they eame out of the tents with broad grins decorating their counten- anees. All the older people played as kids, and the kids certainly did their part by making noise and throwing confetti. The whole evening was a thoroughly enjoyable adair, furnishing entertainment for old and young, and netting a good profit for thc boys.

Simi 11 1927 NORTHERN LIGHT 1927 61rI5'QtbleticC!EIuh HE Girls' Athletic Club was formed at the beginning of the second semester this year. The object of this association is to promote interest in athletics and out-door activities, and to increase the physical efficiency of its members. Every girl in the physical training classes is an associate member of the club. The girls who have earned 25 points are regular members. The president is elected from the senior class, the vice-president, secretary, and treasurer are elected from any of tl1c four classes. The head of the physical training department is the other member of the cabinet. Activity leaders were chosen to manage the activitiesfhiking, tobogganing, skiing, skating, dancing, and swimming. One point' per mile is given for hiking, and three points per hour for the other activities. Fifteen points are given for passing the first and second badge tests, and twenty for the third. These badge tests are taken indoors during physical training class periods, and are very simple tests to pass. Girls who were in the Falls High School basketball team received thirty points, and those on the class teams received twenty-five. Two-hundred points is the maxi- mum for earning the letters F HU i'S.', Oneehundred points entitles each girl to the letter F,,' one-hundred Hfty points, the letters F UH. A iinal emblem is awarded to a Senior girl wl1o is the best all-around athlete and who has shown the best sportsmanship in her athletic activities. Her scholastic record should not be lower than 85 per cent. She is selected by the cabinet and one other member of the faculty. The cabinet members are: Dorothy Buckley, president, Violctte Olson, vice- president, Renee Keyes, secretaryg and Marjorie Millard, treasurer. The activity leaders are Leah Patterson, for hikingp Ludora YVirt, tobogganingg Violctte Olson, dancingg Beryl Croasdale, skating, Lilly Strand, skiing, and Beat- rice Jevne, swimming. Most of the hikes took place on Saturdays and Sundays. The swimming pool was open on Tuesday and Thursday nights after school and on Wednesday aftere noons, and was enjoyed by a large number of students eager for earning their letters. The girls in the dancing class met every Saturday afternoon. Esthetic dancing was taught, and also group, solo, and duet dancing, in preparation for the May Fete. Organizations of this type are being introduced all over tl1e country. Tl1is is the first time anything of this kind has been organized in our high school, but we hope that it will become a stable organization. There are already about forty regular members in the club, and most of the associate members are working hard to get their points. 'X' 'K' '15 Joe VVithrow-K'Miss Hurley, I suppose you noticed I wasn't in the study hall the third period.

Aaron- Yes, and he wore a unionsuit too. 'X' K- 'X- At a meeting of the Athletic Club last Friday night, Miss Sad was discussing the earning of the letters, F. Il. S. QFalls High Schoolj which could be obtained by earning a number of points. Miss Sad thought that the girls who earned the letters wouldn't have to pay for them as she thought that there was enough money in the treasury of the club, Upon hearing this Bee .Ievne spoke up, Miss Sad, I would rather pay for my letters then I'd know I earned them.

Both games were won by our girls with a seore of 48 to elif in the first game, and -Mi to 33 in the seeond. They put up a hard fight both times and deserved the vietories they won. The players on the team were: Forwards, Louise Martin, Dorothy Buckley, and Lilly Strand, the guards, Leah Greengard, Jennie Nagurski, and lljordis Liljeblad. Louise and Dorothy played interehangeably as centers. Dorothy liuekley, eaptain of the team, was very good, and did her best to bring the scores up. She was ever quiek and alert. VVhen Lilly threw the ball to her, Dorothy made it a point to put it in the basket. lieeause she is a senior, she leaves a vaeaney on the team whieh will have to be lilled next year. She will not he forgotten by those who remain. Louise Martin was our star basketball player. She was very good at long shots. VVhen Dorothy and Lilly were both closely guarded, Louise seldom missed the basket. She is also very good at team work. That ean be said of all three of the forwards. Consideration of personal glory was not their guiding motive. Lilly Strand, another Senior player, who will not he with us next year, did good work. She made baskets easily, she never failed when Dorothy and l.ouise yelled Shoot l Everyone will miss Lilly. Leah Greengard was a good guard and not a green one either as her name might imply. This was her second year at playing and undoubtedly she will be with us next season also. Leah has the disadvantage of being short, but it does not seem to hinder her in the least. lf she made up her mind to get the ball, she never failed. VVhen she had a tall forward to guard, she managed to jump high enough to get the ball. Just leave it to Leah! lljordis Liljeblad as guard proved to be very aetive and quick. She is a good guard to have on a team, She is another player who will be lost through graduation. Jennie Nagurskfs specialty was drihhling. She played fast and hard. It was only a matter of time before things began to happen after Jennie got her fighting spirit up. Next year, she, too, will be in the ranks of the alumnae. Although the season was short, it was good! Sixty-Two 1927 NORTHERN LIGHT 1927 l Peter Somers Coach E-wald Robert Douglas ibzter Summers APTAIN SOMERS played his first year for the purple and gold as halfback, and made many brilliant open field runs during the season. In the Virginia game Pete carried the ball forty-five yards on the first play of the game. He proved an outstanding star of the season. Pete will be back in 1927. 33. QE. Qftnalh R. E. Ewald, coach and athletic instructor of Falls High School, graduated from the University of Minnesota. Previous to coming here he coached at Marshall High School, Marshall, Minnesota. In the three years of coaching at Marshall High, his teams have made excellent records in all branches of high school athletics. Mr. Ewald has coached winning teams in track, basket-ball, and football. Much credit is due Mr. Ewald for the work he has done in International Falls. The record of the 1926 football team, which started with a comparatively green squad, and developed into a creditable fighting team, speak well for his ability as a coach. For the second time in a number of years, Falls High was represented at the District Basket-ball Tournament at Virginia largely through Mr. Ewald's efforts. Robert Bnuglas Captain Douglas, forward for the Falls team, was the best short 'shot on the team, dropping the ball into the basket from all angles. His ability on offence and his speed on the floor were outstanding features. Bob graduates this year, and the Falls High will lose a valuable man.

Mr. Ewald had four regulars from 1925, and about twenty green men to mold into a team. The result was that the 1926 team is considered by many the best Falls High has ever produced, and the future teams should be even better, for the spirit shown this year was the best it has ever been. More students turned out for prac- tice than ever before. The squad was the largest that has been seen at practice. More gains were made by the air route by the team of 1926 than by any previous team of Falls High. In the Virginia game the Falls boys made the best showing a Falls High team has made against a range team. lt is signiicant to note that the Falls averaged 1410 pounds while Virginia averaged 155 pounds to the man. This year the Falls High defeated the Alumni, and tied the Paper Makers, although outweighed by both teams. In the Fort Frances game the Falls boys outplayed their opponents in every phase of the game. lt is also interesting to note that this is the first international football game to be played in International Falls. The Falls High team of 1926 won two games, tied two games, and lost two games, with the scores as follows: Mountain Iron .... .. 6 Falls High Bemidji ........ .... 3 2 Falls High Alumni ........... 0 Falls High Paper Makers .... .. 6 Falls High Virginia ..,..... .. 0 Falls High Fort Frances .. . .. 0 Falls High 18553295511 HE 1926-27 basket-ball season opened up with a picked squad of twenty. The material was good, but the men were all inexperienced. This squad included all the football squad except two men. After two weeks of hard drilling the Falls on their home floor defeated Blackduck by a score of 27 to 12. One of the fastest and hardest fought games of the season was played at Baudette. After playing two extra periods to decide the winner, the Falls won by a score of 21 to 20. The Falls and Littlefork clashed four times during the season. Of these games, the Falls won twice and Littlefork twice. Later in the season Baudette journeyed to the Falls eager for victory, but they were again defeated by a score of 37 to 22. This year is the second time in the history of the school that the Falls High was represented in the district tournament which was held at Virginia. There the Falls forced Eveleth to their limit. is as follows: The score was 33 to 21.

In the Fort Frances game, Bob carried the ball over for one ofthe touchdowns. Even though he didn't play regular he showed that little men can do big things in foot- ball. Jon: Fomvucx This was Joe's'first year of football, and he played fullback like a veteran. In the first play of the Fort Frances game, Joe took the ball over for a touchdown on a long open field run. Joe will be back next season. RAY GILSOUL Ray, started with a year's experience, hav- ing played regular for Falls High in 1925. At right tackle for two years Ray proved one of the best linemen on the squad. He missed only one practice the whole season and his ability offensively and defensively made him a much needed cog in the purple and gold machine. GERALD KL1PPNr:ss Gerald Klippness, an eighth grader, was a substitute for the line positions. Although handicapped by his lack of weight he made up for it by his sure tackling and fight. Sixty Selen 9 NOR'1HERN LIGHT 1927 jfnnthall ONNI Kosxr Omni has the distinction of scoring the first points of the season for the purple and gold by falling on a blocked punt behind the goal. He played like a veteran all sea- son, and will be back again next year. - SULO Koskl Sulo played a great game of football the whole season at center. His hard hitting on defense, and faultless passing made him one of the outstanding stars of the season. He will wear the purple and gold again next season. CLAYTON LUND Clayton fTonyQ Lund will be back next year. This was his first year in football and he substituted for backfield positions. Roy LIANLEY Roy, having a year's experience, was a hard tackling, sure ground-gaining half- back. He proved one of the best backfield men on the team, and never carried the ball once in two years without gaining ground. Roy graduates this year, so the Falls High will lose one of the best men on the foot- ball squad. FLOYD PETTIS1CN0t on picturej Floyd Pettis played his first year for the purple and gold this year. He was one of the heaviest men on the team, and was a dead sure tackler. It was Pettis whom the heavy back of the Virginia team ran up against, when a half yard would have meant first down. A Sixty Ezght 1927. NORTHERN LIGHT 92 jfnuthall GEORGE ORVALA George fBeansj Orvala got mad', in the Virginia game, and he has no equal when he's mad. He recovered three fumbles and a blocked punt in the game. WALT SCHEELA This was Waltis iirst year with the purple and gold. At quarterback he handled the ball perfectly playing a cool, sure game the whole season. With three more years to play, we expect big things of Walt before he graduates. JACK WITI-mow This was J'ack's first year of football, and he was a hard-hitting guard. His defense in the Virginia game, stopping all plays directed at him, was an outstanding feature. Jack will be back again next season. J on WITHROW With a year's experience Joe was a sure tackling end. In the Virginia game he caught a. long pass, and made a forty-yard gain on a muddy field. All plays directed against him had very little change for suc- cess. Joe is graduating this year, and the purple and gold will lose a valuable player. Sixty Nme 927 NORTHER Seventy N LIGHT 1927 IEHSRBHLIHII Jon Pl0RMICK Joe, our running guard playQAa fast, smooth game and was one of the most con- sistent on the team. Joe should star next year. RAY GILSOUL Ray substituted for guard position on the basketball team. He played hard and turned out for practice with all the pep and fight of regular. Ray played in several games during the season, and he has well earned his letter. SULO Kosxr Sulo Koski, center, was a strong offensive player, making many points for his team, besides getting the jump on most opposing players. His playing was always character- ized by determination and fight. Sulo will be heard from again next year. 1927 NORTHERN LIGHT 9 Basket-hall ALFRED PAPAS Al QPupj Papas substituted for the posi- tion of center. It was his first year of basket-ball and he has four more years to play. We predict Alfred will be known by all Northern Minnesota teams before he graduates. WALTER SCI-IEELA Walt held down the standing guard posi- tion on the purple and gold team. He played a steady defensive game all season, and proved a big factor in helping his team to victory. Walt will be back again next year. PETER SOMERS Pete proved just as big a man in basket- ball as in football, and his unusual accuracy in dropping in long shots made him one of the outstanding men on the team. He played a strong defensive game and drib- bled around the opposing guards with ease. Pete will he back again next year for basket-ball victories. JOE WITHROWV Joe was a very versatile player, substitut- ing in nearly every position. He was always where most needed, and always character- ized his playing with lots of iight.

VVQ were all sitting quietly in our home room waiting for the bell to ring, when Sup- erintendent Peterson walked in, and was closely followed by a dark, evil-looking pirate, whom he introduced as Captain Kidd. Of course we were terribly shocked, and some of the girls even screamed, but we boys remained calm and collected, just as if nothing had happened. This Captain Kidd had a large black hat' on his head and a large belt around his waist, in which was a large sword. He wore a large bandana around his neck, and his old pair of pants were tucked into his boots. He also had black hair and a large black mustache. No wonder the girls were frightened. Even Miss Jensen looked scared, and it takes a pretty tough looking character to scare her. VVell, Mr. Peterson picked out four of us boys-Pete Somers, Bob Bennett, Ray Gilsoul, and me to escort llirll- around the buildingg and he also told us to be careful of his sword, and not to get him angry as he had already killed one person on the way up here. The first room we took him to was our English room. Of course he wasnft much interested in the English part of it, but, there was one person there that seemed to interest him, and that was Art Lynch. He said that he had never before seen anyone with such funny hair. He wanted to go over and scalp him, but Pete Somers stopped him from doing this. The next room. we took him to was a history room, but we had to soon take him away from there to keep him from tearing up the room. He said he didnit want to see any more rooms like thatg what he wanted to see was some action, so we took him down to the gym and the pool. The gym seemed to please him better, but wasn't half rough enoughg he picked up a few of the smaller boys and began to throw them around, but the coach soon stopped this. VVhen we brought him down to the pool, he was so anxious to see if there were any pirate ships in sight, that he fell in. When he got out, he was as mad as a wild bull, and promptly ran l1is sword through Ray Gilsoul. We shall miss Ray terribly because he had the prettiest sideburns you ever want to see. He was pretty wild after this, and the only .way we could catch him was to put Ida Fortner in front of him. He was struck so dumb at the sight of her, that we had no trouble in tying him up, and shipping him back to the Dead Sea. -ROBERT DOUGLAS '2'7.

N inefy-Two 1927 NORTHERN LIGHT 1927 why Q11 This 315155 jllilusit? The music of the cowboy used to be the rattle of pans, The squeak of leather, the pound of hoofs, the jumble of cansg The music of the sailor was the boom of the waves on the side of the ship, And the creak of the timbers when the hull strained in the dip. Music to the pioneer was the boom of his gun, Music to the Indian the song of birds in the sung And to the soldier, music was the beat of the drum, The whistle of the bullets, the cannon ball's hum. But the music today is the violin's squeak, The rattle of the snare drum, the saxophone's creak, The tinpannish clang when the cymbals are hit And the rumble of piano keys, when the pianist gets a fit. The change of instruments makes small difference in the sound Because the squeak and the rumblings still aboundg They are collected and let loose with a rush, Sounding like a fiivver crashing through the brush. The hum of the mosquito's still music to usg About the rattler, we make little fuss- But the saxophone player that gets on our nerve Wc boost quite freely around the curve. -Mi-zmznrru LYON.

Summer time and vacation time for those who had labored in schools, stores or various other places where high-school grad- uates found an opportunity to attain their long-looked-forward-to ideal! Vacation time it was then and with it came the idle hours that always bring reminiscence of the past. Dream days of not-so-long-ago spent in high-school. A jolly class, a not too jolly teacher and then those heated sessions, class meetings! A vision of school-day pals, pictures of picnics, plays, sleigh-rides and parties at a time in life when man was carefree and had comparatively few duties to perform! Ah! Life was real then! With these memories in their minds and a longing in their hearts to preserve things which are beautiful, a small group of alumni set about to establish and perpetuate an organization to have as its members only graduates of the International Falls high schools. This organi- zation which later became known as the Alumni Association of International Fallsj' had no easy task before them. Meetings were held,-peppy, enthusiastic ones. Committees were formed. Eager, ambitious, loyal men and women strived with all that was best within them to precipitate out of their misty dreams a permanent organization. After a few weeks of meritorious work, a group consisting of twenty-five graduates was assembled, and on June 30, 1925, the first ofiicial meeting was held. Upon Ray McDevitt was bestowed the honor of the first presidencyg Mrs. Walter Nelson was elected vice presi- dent, and Francis Wisard secretary-treasurer. Then to become an active organization! A constitution was drawn upw by two alumni, Roy and Ray Palmer. A meeting was held to swing some social event and functioning as a well established body, a picnic was finally decided upon. Finally arrangements were made and the group was to depart at sunrise. The sun had barely said ugoodmorningn when through every home containing alumni, young men and women were busily engaged preparing food for the day's outing. A peculiar light could be seen in the eyes of all. Peculiar it was and yet how familiar to everyone who remembered them as they had been in high school. Children once again,-lovers of nature! To the dock and just in time to climb aboard. Hardly a ripple could be seen over the water of beautiful Rainy Lake. Noiseless except for the joyous laughter and shouting of everyone present. What a trip that was! Sea Gulls over-head calling for food and tender hearted fellows sharing their noon-day meal with them. Around the many islands we traveled until it seemed that we were lost-but who cared? Life was real again! Cares were thrown to the winds. Songs of old could be heard from many with a few chords and discords from ac- companying ukeleles. Our destination at last,-the Cascades, They could be seen in the distance with their laughing waters as if they too were enjoying the beautiful morning. It was lacking but an hour to noon-day and then meal time. With joyous hearts and empty stomachs each busied himself with tasks to prepare hurriedly the meal. How quickly that food disappeared! Bits of conversation could be heard from small groups clustered here and there. I'll swap you a bottle of pickles for some of those bananas. Trade ya' a few sandwiches for some of your salad. After having completely devoured food which could amply feed a regiment, everyone sought a restful abode before taking to the inviting waters. Carefree, light-hearted, and effervescing with joyousness, swarmed the old gangi' into the cool waters,-waters which afforded one a rendezvous from the sunis burning rays- waters, natureis greatest blessing to mankind, in which this group relished with delight the happiness derived from them. The sun had receded below the horizon and the sky with its shades of red reflected on the water, caused a regretful feeling to all because the day was soon coming to an end. Slowly now the young men and women moved toward the boats which awaited their return. VVhat an eventful day! How diiiicult it was to leave! Crowded on the upper decks of the boats that were now leaving a playground in the distance, one could see couples everywhere with melancholy looks in their eyes. Sentimental- ities were playing havoc with many a young mind. Were they thinking of a day when they again could enjoy themselves as they had done that day? The stars were beginning to shine out of darkened sky. Chords from ukeleles filled the air and soon voices from tired bodies could be heard crooning soft melodies. After some while the moon began to ascend from the depths of the far off water's edge. A vivid picture that! Like a ball of fire in space. But soon its face could be seen. It too was somber perhaps sad with sympathy for those mere people on the earth. VVhat a night! Thus had ended the first social event of a well formed organization. Having remained dormant in a cyst enveloped by obligations in respective enterprises, the spring of 1926 found the association high in spirit and ambitious to again achieve an ultimate success through the ensuing year. Having faithfully served thc association during its first One Humlred 1927 NORTHERN LIGHT 1927 year, Ray McDevitt was unanimously reelected for the coming year. Under his hand the destinies of the organization were to be guided. Harold Dickinson was elected vice president, and David LaBelle secretary and treasurer. Committees were appointed and soon thing-S were again happening. The plans were made for the annual picnicg this time choosing as their grounds,-Sandy Point. When vacation was in full swing, a joyous crowd, consisting of old and new alumni, could be seen walking hurriedly to awaiting boats to again enjoy a glorious time in nature's wonderland. Celebrating the success of past functions and beginning the new year with a joyous up- roar, another event went down in alumni history. January the fourteenth culminated in a most enjoyable sleigh-ride. Although a cold night greeted everyone, the -group was repaid by the good time that followed. So much for the past! The future tentatively holds two events in store. These are planned to make 1927 even bigger and better than ever. The first is a banquet, details of which are now lacking and the second, the greatest alumni picnic ever! As time goes on it is needless to say that this organization will play no little part in the social life of International Falls and will some day be an organization to which its members will refer with pride. Every affair as yet sponsored has been a success financially and soon the treasury will show a good reserve. Its scope of events of interest is unlimited and the writer is confident that with the present mold as a nucleus the future is a bright and pros- perous one. -HAROI.D B. SIIAPIRA. '22.
