We pay tribute to the vast pageant of progress, to the pioneer spirit which has urged and pushed for- ward to give us larger opportunities in developing interests and talents, in encouraging leadership, and in stim- ulating good citizenship. We honor the pioneer loyalty, courage, and persis- tence by presenting our story with a rugged background showing the struggle for the rewards which we now enjoy. Qcwgm DEDIGATION To Miss Lucille Hickman, who has given so unselfishly of her time and effort to aid us in attaining the goal we have now achieved, we affectionately dedicate this edition of the Crest .

Among these various duties are the appropriation of school funds to the effect of a well-balanced budget, the discrimination shown in the choice of teachers, and the provision of necessary inci- dentals provided to keep the buildings clean and comfortable. Without this important grou of school officers it would be im- possible to maintain an effective system of public education. For many years our Board of Education has efficiently exe- cuted the trust bestowed upon them by the patrons of the Ferguson schools. Their long tenure of office without opposition is evi- dence that the people of Ferguson realize that their schools are being operated efficiently and for the best interests of the pu- pils.

Thgoretically, therefore, the Club exists solely to back up faculty and student body whether it be in the form of sec- retarial assistance during optical and dental examinations: a matter of transportation for orchestras and athletic teams: practical assistance through the long-drawn-out-deprossion: hours of preparing and serving food at Volley Ball Tournaments that the Junior Class treasury might be enriched against the day-rather the night-of the Prom: a Christmas party for the whole school: furnishing of a few comforts for the girls' rest ree : encouraging the honoring of traditions of this historic locality as in the adoption of a school ring. Actually, the Club's prime endeavor in the year just end- ing, has been to keep one Jump ahead of its progressive off- spring. And right royally have they succeeded by gleaning worthwhile knowledge from addresses by the finest speakers in their various fields. The monthly meetings have included ad- dresses by: Miss Caroline Moreell, widely-travelled teacher in a St. Louis High School, moving pictures of Mexico. Mr. A. C. Batchelder, Jr., Episbopalian rector, illustrated talk on Oberam orgau and other European meccas. Dr. Harriet S. Cory, member of the Missouri Hy- giene Board, lecture on the adolescent. Miss Jessie Chamberlain, of the St. Louis Art Museum, photographs of, and exceedingly in- teresting data on, exhibits in our Museum. Miss Joan I. Brookes, formerly of the History Department of Goucher College, a treatise on conflicting policies in the Pacific region. And so, at the conclusion of a school year congenially and profitably spent, the outgoing Board congratulate the equally outgoing Seniors-Happy Landing!! Mrs. C. E. Galt President Mrs. J. B.

'H '- H-I 1935 SENIOR HISTORY The senior class of 1934-35 has now completed one more chapter in its history. The future looms before us, great and mysterious: the present is sweet: the past is a dream wherein we relive those active years at Ferguson High. Thirty-nine of our ninety-three freshmen have been classmates for four years. Eighteen others joined us to make the largest class to graduate from Ferguson. The new building, the new teachers, the new classes--everything new, this newness did not intimidate us, but rather incited us to a greater zeal for knowledge. Throughout the year we parti- cipated whole-heartedly in the activities of the school. The two highlights of the year were the initiation party given by the sophomores for the freshman girls, and our Gar- den Dance. As sophomores we continued, again outstanding--notice- ably so in our participation in the operetta, sport activi- ties, and scholastic averages. we all enjoyed i e sely 'Kid Dayu, when the girls came to school arrayed in their juvenile finery. we cooperated with the freshmen and gave a joint dance--a beach party. By the time we came to be nupperclassmenn we were thor- oughly i mersed in school life. To make money for the nPromU--this was our endeavor, Throughout the year we ven- ded our unsurpassable candy, and were trite enough, albeit original enough to use the same theme--candy--as the deco- rative note in carrying out our dance--a veritable 0Candy- landn Cespecially nJuJubeesU7. We realized our anticipa- tions at the enjoyable Junior-Senior Prom at the Congress Hotel. We are seniors--unbelievable, yet true--the first graduf ating class to have spent all four years at J. M. Vogt High School. We opened the social calendar by giving a masquer- ade dance. Our annual, the nCrestW, was eagerly begun by a voluntary staff of seniors, and steadily worked to comple- tion. The WAnnual Queenn contest was a new feature in our policies, and we all say NHats off to the Queen fBecause she's a seniorlu. The Senior Play, nGrowing Painsn was also delightfully presented. All these experiences have become old to us now, but the new remains, unfathomable, questioning. Sure, we are WLaunched, not anchoredu, but our courage promises success.

Although a different atmosphere pervaded our halls--four new teachers, we still dodged and swerved with the masses in a valiant effort to know how to hit, to know how to get hit, to know how to prevent from getting hit, and preventing the other fellow from prevent- ing your hitting him. Combination locks again in promi- nence proved a contributing cause to our loss of religion-- not forgetting the sense of humor, but with an entire Junior Scoop Staff the grand old joke about the Wnose for newsn was again revived. Miss Hofriehter, Mr. Judy, and Mr. Crockett, our sponsors, still remained cheerful in spite of us. Here began the annual scrimmage of the year-- class officers, i.e., friend versus friend. Dave Owen breasting the tape plumped into head chairg Janet Woodward captured vice-president: Jessie Nessing, the optimist, secretary: and Dick Crowe, the luckiest treasurer. Then no more cold beans when Junior mothers head the food-sales at the annual Volley and Basketball Tourneys. The Junior Benefit show hit high when St. Louis U. presented its dramatic club and Dr. McGovern, their sponsor, who made Poo's nRavenW live. And our rustic dance Uwarn't had neithern, eh, Seniors? Still with weak knees we approach our doom. KExamsJ 235 then the P-R O M. Enough said. ...Janet Woodward Q , -v-W-W--.-,v.v....-..,......,,.. L- Q 4 Q4 JM' W 0 NEED?

As Freshmen our lives were not very eventful except, perhaps, for the customary initiation. After this, we soon became firmly established a- round school and were accepted wherever we went. Our colle- giate dance was regarded as unique and was enjoyed by everyone. We ended the school year June 1 after the St. Paul boat trip, May 23. We then left the school as Sophomores and awaited the time when we, too, should be arisen from the ranksu and pro- perly classed as upperclassmen. The time came all too soon, for again in the following September we enrolled in the high school, but this time with the dignity of Sophomores. We were sorry to hear that Miss Hanke had left and that Mr. Westfall would be gone for a year, but on the other hand we were pleased at the arrival of Mr. Judy, Mr. Crockett, Mr. Smith, and Mr. Grace. Officers for the Sophomore class were chosen in Octo- ber, with Claire Gonradi representing the girls as president: Jane Reynolds, vice-president: Betty Uzzell, secretary: and Mary Louise Adams, treasurer. The boys elected Lawrence Bohne, presidentg John David Schweitzer, vice-president: Lloyd Niles, secretary: Charles Archambault, treasurer: John Tully and Elwood Roberts, sergeants-at-arms. We tried hard to support the school activities and a large number from our class responded as members to the var- ious clubs. Many of the Sophomore boys were chosen for bas- ketball, and are regarded as good prospects. Several Soph- omores also helped the wrestling team to a very successful season. The girls have not lingered behind either, for they also have stepped up and shown that many of them are athletes of no little prospect. As the season is now nearing a close, we find a great many things to look forward to. Next year the majority of us will be Juniors, and we look forward eagerly to the Junior-Senior nPromU. We are also awaiting the time when we may take a lead- ing part in all school activities. ...Thomas Bremer SOPHQMORE GIRLS First Row Marie Lueckerath, Betty Nemnich, Jane Coppinger, Sophie CREST May McCallum, Marcella Montrey, Jane Reynolds, Mary Louise Eiiigaggaigig Adams, Claire Conradi, Betty Uzzell, Marianne Kraus, EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Elizabeth Orwig, Frances Baird, Dorothy June leach, W Virginia Hoeger.

All during the summer workmen had been busy adding a new wing to the building to ac- commodate the excellent class. We were very fortunate in securing two splendid sponsors: Miss Badino for the girls: Mr. Smith for the boys. These spon- sors have led um in many worthy undertakings, and the pros- perity of our class is unparalleled. We have also excelled in athletics and scholarship. Our class officers are: Girls, Marie Robinson, president: Joanna Barnes, vice-presidents Helen Adams, secretary: Jacque- line Jambor, treasurer: Boys, Phil Bretch, president: Earl Beard, vice-president: Roy Pierce, secretary: Robert Heffner, treasurer. In January a very fine group of thirty girls and boys en- tered our class, and Mr. Crockett became their sponsor. Owing to the crowded condition of the school, they were allowed only two subjects. Our class dance was held in April. We are looking forward next year to becoming a sophomore class, large in number and in activities. ...Bill Judy V -7414 Q C V EQQCSQY Q45fMKi2,M.tMj0dwLp6QX g is lag.

ACTIVITIES Probably the most enjoyable part of school to the majority of students is the activity program. Through the various clubs, organizations, dramatic productions and dances many opportunities for making friends and for self development are offered. Among those activi- ties from which one may choose are: Dramatics, Band, Orchestra, College Club, Gleo Club, Newspaper work, publishing the school annual, art work, Debating, Girl Scouts, Operetta, Senior play, volleyball, basketball, baseball and handball, and assembly programs. Parti- cipation in some of these activities is a part of the school life of almost every student.

Seven girls from the junior and the senior classes were selected by a vote taken by the boys in the respective classes. Each person who purchased an annual was entitled to a vote for the queen, and much interest was manifest in the contest, especially in the closing days of the event. On the evening of May 3 the contest ended and disclosed Maxine Ward as queen and Anna Luise Bangert as maid of honor. The other five girls acted as the queen's attendants. With her regal mein her Highness, the queen of the Annual, or, in other words, just plain Mack Ward, ap- proached her throne, after her equally fascinating at- tendants, namely: Anna Luise Bangert, her maid of honor, Janet Woodward, Jessie Jean Nessing, Frances Crowe, Vernita Dothage, and Lucy Sullivan. No less important were the four charming youngsters who were also in at- tendance to the queen. Curly-haired little Nancy de Camp dropped rose petals copiously down the queen's ave- nue, while Calvin Dothage solemnly bore the crown potons, fashioned of vines set with roses and daisies with a towering egret of stock. Two vivacious young train bearers, Anne Hereford and Marian Bell followed her Highness prettily up the aisle. The curtains parted to disclose the throne, regally decorated in black and white, over-shadowed by a sunburst, which was extremely impressive. The attractiveness of this setting was due to the efforts of Paul Allmeyer who created the scenery. Eleanor Adams, with dignity be- fitting the editor of the WCrestW, presided over the coro- nation and solemnly crowned Her Majesty. Eleanor addressed the assembly in a hhort tribute to the queen and her at- tendants before they slowly returned down the aisle, from whence they came. Following the coronation there was dancing for every- one. Music was furnished by a six-piece Nonnandy High School Orchestra. The whole event was a highly success- ful oneg a large crowd attended it, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed himself. I F .ah Q CREST QUEEN T THE CREST The Crest has endeavored to maintain a high standard for a mimeographed annual through observation of requisites for pub- lishing a creditable year book. The staff has attempted care- ful organization, appropriate selection of material, effective art illustrations, good photographs, and neatness in form and . in printing. The improvement which the Crest has shown during the four years of its existence is indicative of the growth and progress of our high school. This year, the Staff, realizing the res- ponsibility of reviewing the high school activities of 1934- 1935 desired that the Crest be a memory of their happiest days and that no work be spared to make it conform to their best efforts. The financial problems have not been small. Since the price charged for annuals does not meet the cost, several benefits were sponsored: a matinee dance, picture show, sand- wich sale, and bridge benefit from which some funds were de- rivallo The Staff this year included: Editor Eleanor Adams Art Editors Edna Lix Paul Allmeyer Business William Rosenbaum Managers Duane McCallum Circulation Reynold Carlson Mimeograph Morris Farmer Fred Hecker Lance Schultz Editorial Vernita Dothage Josephine Aydt Mary C. Grafton Mary Frances True Anna L. Bangert Margaret A. Kirby Maxine Ward Lucy Sullivan Delores Becker whose careful planning and untiring efforts have brought this book into being. whose combined efforts speak for themselves. whose salesmanship ability and work has been invaluable. whose dependability has been an important asset. whose willingness to do over- time work has been outstanding. whose assistance nspeeded upu the annual. whose pens have contributed articles to the pages. - V -Y--W CREST Q,SQWmq .dim 1935 we Y if W1 ri .fi X ,- A -Yi, jokes, and circulation were sponsored by the following staff CREST X x5QgNSEs5iQswW TMgg we N RSV as 1 'X 4 A Q 4r.nwfkL?lisl S V-fi , K-. , s .

This activity has been self-su porting and is considered one of the worthwhile activities of the school. Publishing the Scoop, which is entirely the work of the stuf dents, has many advantages for those on the staff. As a mo- tivation for expression in written English: for teaching ob- servation of events about school for practice in planning: for developing judgment, skill, and accuracy: for encourag- ing cooperation and sportsmanship: for developing leadership for helping to build school spirit: for teaching originality and for correctly portraying life of the school: our paper serves a real need of the students. Opportunity also is of- fered in Art work and in business management. Under the able direction of Miss Hall, the Scoop has won state prizes in the Interscholastic Press Association contest held at Columbia, Missouri at the School of Journalism, in May, every year. The issues for this year included those of September, Tournament Special, October, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Janur ary, February, March, April, and Commencement.

Much to her consternation, George has decided that she is too old to continue playing with him and his chu s. To the disgust of her brother, Terry refuses to accept his demand and a scene results in which Terry is spurned by her erstwhile pal--Brian. Broken-hearted, she resolves to grow up in a hurry and show everyone just exact- ly what a young lady she is. Prudence Darling, a young sophisticate from the East, arrives to distribute smiles, coy glances, and coquetry to all of the boys, for which she receives the uundyingu de- votion of both George and Brian. At this time a party is in the making at the Mclntyres. Prudence, to the despair of the girls, proceeds to derive pleasure by gathering all the men around her at all times during the evening. When George, returning from a store errand violates the local speed laws in his hurry to rejoin the party and Prudence, is pursued by a traffic officer, the party comes to a sad ending with George being taken to the police station.

At the end of the play, Terry adopts the fancies of childhood to her new-found ngrownupnessu and recaptures Brian, while George seeks consolation in a new girl. Duane McCallum, as George McIntyre, gave a splendid per- formance. His part as the young know-it-all boy with a mania for huge words is convincingly given. Anna Luise Bangert, playing the role of his sister, Terry, was charmingly natural and unaffected--typically a young girl in the throes of ado- lescence. Eleanor Adams, who took the role of the ever-patien Mrs. McIntyre, did her part with her usual poise. William Rosenbaum gave a splendid performance as the professor. Veronica Lee, as Prudence Darling, effectively portrayed her name. Most expertly she used the wiles of a siren to make her part a smashing success. Walter Niles as Brian, was just--Walter Niles, natural and complete master of his part. The supporting cast was made up of Frank Schuler, Loreda Feucht, Maxine Ward, Reynold Carlson, Ada McKee, John Frede, Anne Meszaros, Margaret Alice Kirby, Edna Lix, Lucy Sullivan, George Moloney, Wesley Leverich, and Vivian Bardon. The entire performance showed that much time and skill had gone into its making. Each person worked with perfect cooperation to produce a perfect play. Of course, most of the credit is due Miss Hickman who devoted her entire time during rehearsals to the production. Her excellent taste and judgment was apparent throughout the entire performance and her prodigious success of former plays was repeated in this one. The professional appearance of the stage was given by the exceptionally good scenery which was designed and made by Paul Allmeyer under the supervision of Miss Claus. As a whole, I am sure that we can easily say that UGrowing Painsn was a real pleasure to beth those who at- tended the production and to those who participated. It was one of the most successful senior plays presented at Ferguson High School. 1 mlm SENIOR PLAY - Growing Pains 3 I 1 OPERATTA 'SONG IN MY H ART' Annual Operetta--March 22 and 23, 1935 Before att mpting a detailed description of the op- eretta, tribute must be paid to Miss Badino, who annual- ly assumes the responsibility of this activity. This year Miss Badino not only designed the costumes and scen- ery and originated the dances, but also wrote the dialogue and composed the songs. Working under a tremendous strain, Miss Badino retained her good disposition, thereby making participation in the production a pleasure to every member of the cast. The stage pictures were by far the most spectacular of all of the operettas we have ever produced. Against attractive but simply designed scenery the colorful cos- tumes stood out in brilliant contrast. The story of the operetta concerns the French Empire during the years 1667 and 1668, when Louis XIV was at- tempting to extend the boundaries of France. His scheme ing, and that of his queen, Maria-Teresa constitute the plot for the play. . Attempting to describe any m mber of the cast as out- standing is impossible. Everyone, from principals to mem- bers of the choruses, displayed splendid cooperation, with the success of the production as a whole more important than individual honors. Winifred McKee, by an excellent recital of the pro- logue, started the operetta in an impressive manner. Delores Becker and John Crowe, playing the roles of Queen Maria-Teresa and King Louis XIV, gave excellent per- formances. ULe Roi Soleiln, probably the most beautiful song in the production, was effectively rendered by John. George Tuthill again displayed.h1s talents in the role of Beaucoeur, a carefree country boy who came to Paris seeking fame. His voice was well suited to the Song. De Vivonne, captain of the Musketeers, wa! tell por- trayed by George Moloney. His singing of the stirring nSong of the Musketeersu was one of the high lights of the operetta. Playing opposite him was Anna Luise Bangert in the part of Dolores, which was very well done.

Duane McCallum, who carried the comedy in the role of Cliquot, gave an exceptional characterization of the part. Playing opposite him as the vivacious character of Margot, Mary Frances True gave a splendid performance. Jordis Land and Gene Herrmann captivated the audi' ences at both performances with a beautiful specialty waltz number. Other speaking and singing parts were well played by Frances Crowe, Jean Zeppenfeld, Edna Lix, Sophie May McCallum, David Owen, Reynold Carlson, Robert Palmer, Walter Niles, Claire Conradi, Ruth Holden, Oliver Greeves, Preston Knox, and Paul Allmeyer. The choruses, in both vocal and dance numbers, were well received and contributed much to the pageantry and color so necessary for the success of a production of this character. In the final analysis the success of nSong in My Heartu, and the many other operettas that have preced- ed it in recent years, brings us back to Miss Badino. The Ferguson High School is indeed fortunate in poss- essing a director so talented, capable, patient, and willing. THE DANCES This year's social calendar was completed with the Freshman Dance on April 25. As in former years the Seniors took the ini- tiative and presented the first one for the enjoyment of the stu, dent body. The Seniors gave a masquerade pirate dance, probably the best attended of the year, on October 19. The spirit of infoma- ality created by the costumes, both comical and beautiful, was delightful, and called out even the most reticent freshmen to gaiety. Basketball passes were presented by the Seniors for the two most outstanding costumes. Among the boys the prize went to Edward Krueger, attired in a 1925 party dress, beautiful yellow curls, and a rich fox fur. Betty Uzzell took the girls' prize with her old-fashioned dress and bonnet, and her coy smiles. Others of the students represented story-book characters, negroes, and natives of foreign lands. The decorative design was carried out in a huge pirate ship, which was used as a pit for Sy Olian's orchestra. The Juniors presented an equally enjoyable dance with pio- neer surroundings emphasized by the rustic log cabin nestled in a corner. Sy Olian's orchestra again furnished the music. The Mothers' Club again favored us with a Chris mas dance attended by large numbers. The gymnasiu carried a Christmas theme in decoration. Gay Christmas trees, large holly wreaths, and decorative serving tables lent a festive spirit to the even- ing of entertainment. Normandy High School furnished music with a fifteen piece orchestra. Entertainment on the stage was given by a grou of alumni trained by Miss Ethel Leaver. During January the Girls' Glee Club, the Annual Staff, and the Orchestra gave three joint afternoon dances at which the Nor- mandy High School Orchestra played. The Sophomores gave their dance in February, a Valentino dance very prettily arranged with hearts used in every conceivable way, tho invitations, the arrangement of chairs, the orchestra pit. At this dance Ed Johnson and his New Yorkers furnished the music. The last dance of the season, given by the Freshmen on April 25 was a memorable one. A formal garden was the settingg pink and green, the color scheme. It was unique in the fact that a group of Freshman boys and girls presented a floor show, two dances and a song, which were really welcomed as an added attraction, by the students. The orchestra was again that of Ed Johnson. Thus, we close a colorful and eventful social year, the mem- ories of which will long be cherished. CREST :- if A-ff - --vssrzxv his 1 -.1 W.: .

Everyone is look? ing forward to closing the last week of his high school days with this long anticipated event. BON VOYAGE! Hooray! The last day of school is to be celebrated by e carefree excursion and all day picnic! Everyone is rejoicing and exclaiming: nCome on, 1et's forget about work, let's have a good timen. Boys and girls alike are running down the steep hill with baskets of food. The whistle blows: the gang plank goes up. We're off! We watch the boat slowly edge from the wharf. The shore line grows farther away. Music---a shuffling of feet on the deck---a new shiny dance floor---swaying rhythm---. Other attractions---baskets of food---laugh- ing---friends---fun---all day long. Toward evening the beat returns to its familiar landing, and we toward home, with tired feet, but with memories of a pleasant outing, thanks to the Mothers' Club. SOM Nov Dec Dec Dec Dec Dec Jan.

At the beginning of the year our chances seemed slim as several letter men were lost by graduation, but still they carried on. Their fighting resulted in a tie for first place in our league. The season opened at Warrenton, Missouri, where we were defeated. The results of several following games caused us to gain great confidence in our team. In the annual Normandy tournament we participated, but were de- feated very early. The last part of the schedule proved to be more interesting, as we played seven games without defeat 0 In February the annual Ferguson Invitational Tour- nament, in which ten schools participated, was held. At the district Tournament in University City we lost after two close games with Bayless and St. Charles. However, the team wound up with the Affton game, closing an eventful and exciting season. It may be men- tioned that our team, with George Tuthill as captain, gained many notable honors. The team consisted of the following: Tuthill fCaptain, King Montroy Warner Niles Bohne Herrmann Berger Owen Wehmer Schlichting BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT Valley Park 163 ZJennings 235 J S1'1l'li'l'li5S 4 22? uv gJ enninggs 20, Riverview 15, D 5 JBay1ess 15 Fairview 222 5 3 gBw1ess 2,51 3 'Bayless 245 3 P Hancock 202 g Eureka 16, g Eureka 51, 3 7 lFergu.son 261 Brentwood 2,21 g 7 ,.

One hundred and sixty athletes, seventy- five boys and eighty-five girls, represented these schools. and The first of the boys games was played between Jennings Riverview and was won by Jennings. Ferguson defeated Brentwood in the second tilt, which was followed by the Fairview-Hancock game, in which Hancock won. Then Jennings and Ferguson, winners of the first and second games, played the fourth game in order to determine who was to clash in the finals with Hancock. This game was won by Ferguson, but the finals, played at 8:30 that evening, ended in a victory for Hancock, thereby declaring them winners of the tournament In the girls' section of the tournament, the first game was played between Jennings and Brentwood, in which the lat- ter won by an overwhelming score. Ferguson lost the second event to Fairview in a close and hard fought game. Next Hancock and Riverview met in a contest which resulted in a victory for Hancock. An exciting se i-final game between Brentwood and Fairview was won by the Brentwood team. The girls from Hancock, in a very close game with Brentwood, again forged ahead to win the final game and the tournament, causing both Hancock teams to carry away the honors.

Farmer, who will receive a try-out with the Cardinals this su mer, has been pitching great ball. Showing an assortment of curves, slow ball, fast ball, and a drop, Farmer's best record, so far, was turned in at Ritenour where he struck out eighteen bat- ters and allowed but three hits. Of course, we must not eve look the pitching of Bohne, which has been very effective. Although the batting of the team has not been any too good, hitting by Tuthill, Hecht, Owen, Bieler, and Allmeyer has helped in scoring the runs for Ferguson.

The dis- continuance of inter-school games was disappointing to some of the girls: but on account of over abundance of students and the extra coaching de anded to train com- potetive teams to play with other schools, the inter- school games were discontinued. Ferguson this year has developed a program similar to what is being done in many schools. Next year several other county high schools will discontinue competitive athletics for girls with other schools and emphasize intramural sports and participation in play days. Class teams were coached by Miss.May Hof- riehter. These teams were entered in a class tournament, in which the junior team won. Those comprising the senior team were: Esther Hege- man, Jo Aydt, Edna Lix, Mary Catherine Grafton, Maxine Ward, Edna Dunham. The junior team consisted of: Josephine Montrey, Helen Caldwell, Louise Rodenberg, Harriett Simpson, Hilda Steinbach, Marguerite Bieler, Jessie Jean Nessing, Mari- anne Kraus, Marcella Popplewell, Harriet Orwig, Cecelia Hoch, and Jeanne Laberge.

With this question in mind we proceeded to organize our club, under the able direction of our new teacher, Mr. Grace. Since every day was so full of activities we decided to have a meeting some evening, with supper and ice cream. Oh,----the response! Having consumed all we could hold, we listened to a few short speeches and then held our elections. As a result of excellent organization the boys' nominee won the presidency, making the evening a success. Soon after the meeting above discussed, we suffered a serious loss in membership, caused by the new rules govern- ing club membership. However, we proceeded with our work and soon announced the presentation of the humorous debate, WWhich Came First, the Hen or the Egg?u. Having successfully com- pleted our first work, we proceeded with more serious business, that of choosing our team and preparing our debates. Having chosen our team, we set to work preparing our debates for conf petition, a job involving no small amount of reading besides numerous extra meetings. Having arrived at a point where we night do more than read, write, and revise, we arranged a number of practice debates with other schools from which we gained much valuable experience. At last cane the big day--our first debate. We set out confident we would win. We arrived--rested--debated--and lost. Again we read, wrote, and revised, all the time re- gaining our confidence. Again we set out confident, this time to Jennings. Again we lost. A few days passed, dur- ing which we prepared for Eureka. The day came and we won! These were the major activities of our club during the '34-'35 season. A11 the members learned much which will be used in future work, and so, although we lost 2 to 1, the season must be counted a success.

A constitution was drawn , up and officers were elected as follows: Robert Palmer, pres identg Maxine Ward, vice-president: Mary Catherine Grafton, secretary: and Richard Crowe, treasurer. The aim of the club has been everyamamber participation with the thought of developing speaking ability and poise. Of the plays given the first, WThursday Eveningu, a do- mestic comedy by Christopher Morley, was presented the latter part of December at a meeting of the Dramatic Club and again on January ninth for an assembly. uThursday Eveningn hai as its cast Richard Crowe, Rose Mary Huber, Mary Catherine Craf- ton, and Mary Noell. In January a second play entitled 'A Woman of Character' by Estelle Audrey Brown which was a clever satire on women was presented. The nine girls taking part were: Josephine Aydt, Kathleen Bethel, Mary Nathan, Charlotte Grimm, Betty Nemnich, Jane Coppinger, Marie Lueckerath, Jane Donovan, and Doris Killian. The final presentation of the club was a romance, nCrys- tal Clearn by William M. Sloan, III. Maxine Ward, Dorothy Schlarman, John Crowe, Hilma Davis, and Robert Palmer had roles. Since the club was not organized until mid-November and was closed the last of March with the beginning of the Senior Play, its program was necessarily short. However, it is planned that next year a fuller schedule of plays will be en- acted with more public performances. The success of this club in training students will be carried on as ably as ever by Miss Hickman. THE SCIENCE CLUB The Science Club was reorganized early in the school year with a membership of seventeen erstwhile scientists. The first few meetings consisted of aspiring lectures and inspiring demonstrations. These were ably conducted by our eminent friend Roger Farmer and our eminent friend Duane McCallum, assisted by William Eades, Alden Staples, and Kenneth Buelterman. Becoming more or less saturated with this type of information, the meetings were led by William Rosenbau , Morris Farmer, and Fred Chandler who presented chemical experiments dealing with basic chemical phenomena and occasionally interspersed with biochemical experiments, nutrients, and some illustrations of the fun- damental principles of genetics, using the fruit fly as specimens, showing the simple Mendelian type of inheritance. CThe next few lines are left for you to draw your own con- clusions. 'P The second term opened with a reinvigorated group of students working once again upon short wave transmission and upon recapitulation of the mechanism of ethereal send- ings Some of the Rosenbaum bombs didn't work, but the in- terest was maintained and the membership has been kept constant, our officers being: Roger Farmer, Presidentg June Robinson, Secretary: Morris Farmer, Treasurer. Qther members were: Oliver Greeves Stanley Mounce William Rosenbaum Margaret Scoville Betty Uzzell Alden Staples Lance Schultz Howard Atkinson Phil Bretch Thomas Bremer Kenneth Buelterman Fred Chandler William Eades Albert Ettling We'rc looking forward to another year of speculative ex periments and vicarious knowledge which comes from the actual participation in scientific laboratory experimentation.

Both groups prospered a great deal in the study of music and appeared in public many times. The band added a great deal to the pep of the basket- ball games and the sports of the year. It also created an interest in music so that the great work can be carried on next year. The orchestra played at several assemblies and outside activities which also helped Ferguson in the appre- ciation of music. It has done good work all year as an or- ganized club that met every Tuesday and Friday afternoons with about ton pieces, while the band met every Monday and had about fifteen members. Several members came from the Grade School and from Romona Park. The band consisted of the following members: Tgugpets R. Carlson B. Bethel E. Bangert J. Nathan Drums C. Klostenuan G.

I O l X A HI-Y CLUB The Ferguson chapter of the Hi-I sponsored by the Y. M. C. A. under the direction of Mr. W. F. Lewis was or- ganized in October of 1934, under the leadership of Chet Utlaut, a member of the S minary in Webster Groves. His object was to develop good fellowship and bring the boys closer to each other while in school. During this year the club, under the su ervision of Mr. Utlaut and the officers, made a great deal of progress. A com ittee was selected to draw u a program for the year. Speakers were secured to speak on subjects such as, sports, travels, and boy and girl relationship. The gym, through the interest of Mr. McC1uer, was secured after the meetings for a game of some sort and the WY' pool for swim ing, through Mr. Lewis' aid. Probably the most important events of the Hi-Y were the basketball games with Wellston Hi-Y, the mixed swimming, the Hi-Y asse bly, and trips through several large business places. The dues this year were S25.00, but it was forwarded to the National Y, of which we became a member. The aims of the Y organization and its work were pre- sented at a county Hi-Y meet in Clayton. This organization brings the boys of the school into closer relationship, pro- motes health and activity, tries to help unemployed, organ- izes clubs for the negro population, and most of all, main- tains a college credited by the Missouri University.

C. Rosen- bau , who resigned last year. The Girl Scouts were then included in the high school activities with Miss Amy Ruth Claus as captain. The Scouts have been extremely active during the past two years. Among last year's activities were: The weeks end spent at Mrs. Rosenbaum's cottage on the Meremac River by the second class scouts, the spring hike in Ceppinger's Woods, the swimming parties at Norwood Country Club, and the Oriental Supper and Bazaar. This year our first activity under Miss Claus' dir- ection was the annual Hallowe'en masquerade party. We also had a Christmas party, the admission to which was a can of food later donated to Mayor Mason's dinner for these on the welfare list. The Scouts also dressed Community dolls. A very interesting evening was spent in a tour through the Globe-Democrat Building, where we had an op- portunity to seo Uwhat makes the wheels ge 'round.U Second class Girl Scouts, who were working on the Hostess merit badge, enjoyed a party at the G. S. Little House, entertained their mothers at a tea, and were guests at a party given for them by Mrs. Clifford Day, the Hostess Badge Examiner. Second class Scouts also had the privi- lege of taking First Aid, Child Nursing, and swimming courses. The last two years have been very busy ones for Scout work. Plans are new being made by the girls for individual work to be done during the summer months to enable them to win merit badges. V sf' Q. GIRL SCOUTS HI-Y 5 6 .,' s 'U A. C. E. CLUB THE A. C. E. CLUB The A. C. E. Club, which stands for the Latin words 'Adesne Collegium Ergo?W meaning nAre you going to college?U, was one of the new activities organized in the fall of the year. Its purpose was to inform students interested in col- lege about the various institutions in the country, their specialities, requirements, tuition, etc. Catalogs were se- cured from a number of colleges of different types, especially those in Missouri. Members of the organization also had an opportunity to learn the meaning of various terms used in college, and individual reports were presented by the stuf dents. Mr. Judy sponsored the club, and the officers were: Eleanor Adams. ....... ..... President Bill Judy ......... .... Vice President Marie Lueckerath.... ...... Secretary Membership included: Eleanor Adams, Mary Louise Adams, Helen Adams, Jean Zeppenfeld, Janet Woodward, Jordis Land, Marie Lueckerath, Virginia Hooger, Dorothy June Beach, Ruth Holden, Bill Judy, Lance Schultz, William Rosenbaum, Morris Farmer, Virginia Grobengieser, Lucy Sullivan, Peggy McIntosh, Edward Krueger, and Jane Coppinger.

The books have been renumbered, rearranged on the shelves, and mended. Several new books have been added to our already adequate library. Several times during the year we were very fortunate in haying the invaluable assistance of Mrs. Thelma Pohlman Mrs. Florence Kelley, and Mrs. Gay Hurst, whose services were made possible through the FERA. The library and its staff have been under the su er- vision of Claireida Bondurant, a post-graduate. Those who also lent their able assistance are: Dottel Bohne, Mar- guerite Bieler, Edna Behle, Virginia Grobengieser, Maude Rosenbaum, Janet Woodward, Sophie May McCallum, Kathleen Bethel, Charlotte Grimm, Dorothy King, Dorothy Green, Betty Uzzell, and Marcella Popplewell. ' If THE NEW CREST FOR FERGUSON The standard crest, a true symbol of the Ferguson High School, was selected fr m a number of different designs sub- mitted by various jewelers. This task of interviewing and se- lecting was left to a committee of faculty members, stu ent body officers, and class officers. After a design was chosen, it was placed before the students and voted upon. The crest selected features the history of the high school and Ferguson. The very top portion of the coat of arms, known as the crest. is the keynote, the doorway to the J. M. Vogt School. Immediately under the doorway is an interlocking chain, which represents the fine everlasting friendships formed within its doors. In the lower right hand corner is a covered wagon, for the purpose of illustrating the founding of Ferguson. The original founder came to Ferguson in a covered wagon from Marietta, Ohio in the year of 1845. In 1855 the railroad was built, and the town was named Fergusonaafter William B. Ferguson. An airplane in the upper left corner denotes our association with flying and axiation. ,Through the center of the coat of arms is found three ser- vice stars. These are quite appropriate, since our town gained the national distinction of having more men volunteer in the service of our country during the World War than any other city of equal size in the United States. This part of the coat of arms represents those boys who attended this high school and who gave their lives for their country. On either side a torch has been used to represent the continuance of knowledge and ed- ucation at J. M. Vogt High School. This crest will be used each year as the crest for senior rings and as the official crest for the school. fl- if .1 'WY 1 Wa U . 4 Gsm 2 , u 1935 an ,, :nm 2 C X x so Z 'i xx, ma, Qi I M fnynmbk sgiimsiswlasskfvf? 1935 THE ART CLASS This year a course in art was introduced for the first time at Ferguson under the competent instruction of Mr. J. W. Crockett. The art class participated in a series of poster con- tests during the year, in which the students made a good show- ing. The first of these was the WNeed1e Work Guild' contest in which John Smith, Paul Allmeyer, Lawrence Bohne, and Edna Lix took part. Paul Allmeyer won the award. The second contest of the year was that sponsored by the St. Louis Christmas Carols Association. The competition was with the other St. Louis County High Schools. In this group Paul Allmeyer's poster was awarded second place, and Edna Lix's third place. The third contest was sponsored by the Greater St. Louis Flower and Garden Show Exhibition. The last group of posters was made for the Veteran-Made Poppy Sale sponsored by the American Legion and American Leg- ion Auxiliary Associations. The entire art class competed in the local contest. During the year a number of projects have been undertaken by the class. The first of these were the mimeograph designs made to advertise each of the basket ball games. The art ex- hibit of the Parent-Teachers' Night was the second undertaking. Then came the designing, in linoleum blocks, of Christmas cards The class also helped a great deal in arranging the scenery for the operetta, NSong in My Heartn. Another very attractive ex- hibit was a project in crayonex wall hangings made in a wide variety of design and color. Another project of importance was the formation of a book- let containing the biographies of a group of world famous art- ists, both old and modern. SPEECH CONTEST On April 10th the Debating Club cooperated with the ten English classes in sponsoring a speech contest throughout the school. Each student was invited to participate in the pre- liminary contest held in each English class. A boy and a girl were chosen to represent each class in the finals, at which boys and girls competed in two separate groups of ten contestants each. The committee of teachers in charge of this event was: Mr. Grace, Miss Hickman, Miss Hall, Miss Hofriehter, and Miss Badino. Awards were presented to the following students: Girls First Betty Manges . . . . . . . . . nKentucky Philosophyn Second June Robinson . . . . . . . . nThe Highwaymann Third Eleanor Adams . . . . . . .

WWar Inevitablen The success of this event was apparent by the number of entries, the interest, and the attendance. As a stimulation to developing good oral English and skill in speaking, this declamation contest will probably be made an annual event.

Hall AMERICAN LEGION ORATORICAL CONTEST This year our high school was invited to participate in l CREST the American Legion Oratorical Contest conducted throughout the high schools of the state. Each contestant prepared an original six minute speech on the Constitution of the United Ngw KQWWMWYMWJ States. Eggiiiatgfifw A local contest was encouraged and directed by Mr. Russell jgggiggggifie Grace, Debating coach. From the contestants John Crowe was selected to compete in the North End District Contest held at our school on February 12, at 8:00 P.M., sponsored by Mr. Vic- tor Wolf of the Arthur C. Williams Post, Number 161, of Fer- guson, and Dr. D. C. Bosserman of Wellston Post, Number 154. The place was given to John Crowe, who later competed in the zone contest at Maplewood High School, and placed fourth. Following is a part of his speech: Our Constitution is inimitable in as much as it has allow- ed us every freedom--speech, religion, press, personal opinion, and a volume of others: whereas, the people of other nations have no choice as to how, when, and where to establish a con- stitution, and how to enforce it. On the contrary, our Con- stitution is not dependent for its success on rigid enforce- ment. What it contains is desirable and authentic. It has not disposed our people to the mental suppression as does a dicta- torship. Our country commands all in democracy, wealth, charity, and leniency. Why? Because it has the most adequate and lib- eral form of government in the whole universe. Even in the great conflict that precipitated the Civil War, it was not un- til the Constitution was invoked that the desire for section- alism and secession were confronted, and we were restored to our former prosperity. Suppression and panic are not the fault of the government, but can be traced, in a large measure, to the faults of its constituents. The difference of opinion, taste, custom and climate are among the main causes of such depressing times. Lincoln declared in his immortal address that the government was, Wby the people, for the people, and of the peop1e,W and the people are the ones to whom the government is subordinate. People are nonplussed when uncomfortable times enter this pros- perous country. But it is really a result of their own ignor- once. It is on their own initiative that the country is thrown into what seems an indefinite chaos. Today national and inter- national difficulties confront us, but we must have the con- fidence and trustworthiness necessary to insure domestic tran- quility. Fidelity and confidence are the only means of victory in our present dilemma. 1935 CREST 1N'NNQ5?Qg Sage X NEWS? Wllllllmlk gg Q23 lulzfufmf 'K fznnvil .NAR 1935 -I-A3 xl nN.f slsfg : '.

Courses A welcome addition to our courses this year has been the introduction of two subjects popular with st dents, Art and Mechanical Drawing. Both have been stimulating to those interested in art and drawing. The Art class has completed many practical projects and some prize winning work. All posters advertising school events ori- ginated in the Art class. Many attractive displays of work in the hall have won the admiration of everyone. To those entering engineering, draftsmanship and to those seeking a helpful course, Mechanical Drawing has proved valuable. Health Two nurses interested in health, generally and partic- ularly, gave physical examinations to the student body, ad- vised remedial work, and did much to awaken an interest in keeping physically fit. Their services were gratefully appreciated. Dr. Raymond Holden and local dentists of Ferguson also donated their services for health examina- tions. Sgcretaries The secretarial force of our school was increased by the services of Mrs. S. Wooddell and Miss Dorothy Deis. Through their efforts much extra clerical work was made possible. Student Teachers Several students from Washington University School of Education did observation and practice teaching this year. These students not only broke the monotony in several class rooms having one teacher but were helpful in assisting with tutoring for those who needed special help. Those who did eighty hours in our school were: Miss Margaret Frech Miss Irene Krineheder Mr. Harry Brown Mn Hmmdmm VOCATIONAL CONFERENCES This year we have had vocational meetings at which men and women familiar with developing trends in vocations have spoken. We learned of requirements and traini and of opportunities for securing placement. ng necessary Also we learn- ed much practical information through the fiel various com ercial places of business.

Some continue further education: some enter the business world: some build homes of their own: ani others prefer to remain at home. Even though they are no longer active members of the student body, there is always a warm welcome when they return and an interest of the faculty in their activities and success. So that we may know where former students are and what they are doing, a directory of alumni is printed every two years in the Crest. In the 1982-33 Annual a complete directory since the or- ganization of Ferguson High School was printed. We take pleasure this year in including the classes of 1935 and 1934.

Sept. 4--School opened today with a bang. High school seems awful diferent, but I guess I'll get used to it. There sure seems to be a racket in book selling. Got hooked for three today that I don't need. Every kid some book. Heard a bunch of Senior you meat is arguing about girls who seemed real ex- cited talking about the new teachers, shucks, they're all new to me. Sept. 21--Today we had our first assembly. Here's hoping we'll have a lot of them this year. Sept. 27--Margie Jones fwe are sorry we can not give you the true namel seems to be taking quite an interest in me lately. She asks me for my Civics and Algebra almost every day. After school today I gathered enough courage to ask her if I could walk home with her when some senior girl comes up and told us that the debating and glee clubs were holding their first meet- ings. Well, Margie ran off to the library and called something over her shoulder about seeing me tomorrow, so I decided I might as well go up and see what debating was like. It sure sounded good, but I'm afraid it'l1 be kind of deep for me. Well, anyhow I'll stick to it for a little while--the next meeting is going to be a party and refreshments. Sept. 28--Another assembly today. Reverene Batchelder gave a talk about his travels in Europe last summer. Oct. 9--We've been having elections nothing. Sort of expected to be at this Week. I didn't run for least nominated for one of the school offices, but I guess nobody happened to think of me. I would have liked to been treasurer like I was in the seventh grade. It's always an easy job and Oct. lO-Margie and I are beginning better now. We're together quite a Club Minstrel Show tonight. It was I always liked money. to understand each other bit. Took her to the Lions' free. Oct. 12-We had a practice dance today in the gym. Of course I went and I danced with Margie almost all say something about how she bet her for the Senior dance on the 20th. Well, are pretty clumsy. Had another assembly the time. Heard hor wouldn't be in shape some of these fellows today, too. feet CREST .l, I IQWWVW L I U4 Mf xv 9 1,1 ,W, .. s WW S .tx elf -114-ggi? - ' :Y 'rd ' 5 fJ-E- 'rrp E'-ff: 'Ei A15 ' EFX 'est 'iss' if s :J-'35 -Q' 1 A 135.

Oct. 20m-Well, the Senior dance was tonight and I went. I'm sure glad I did even if I'm not so expert at dancing, but whoid know me anyhow because it was a costume dance? I dressed like a sailor and fit in swell, cause the orches- tra pit was fixed up like a pirate ship. Maybe that's why I felt so much at home. Gave prizes for the best costumes, but nobody happened to notice me. Sore fellow dressed up like a girl won. Got a couple fo glimpses of Margie, but whenever I went to find her, I either wouldn't or she was with someone else. Gee, I had a swell time. Sure hope us freshmen can think of something good. Oct. 25f-Don't feel so perky today. Guess it's because the grade cards was issued. Well, anyhow I passed everything even if it was pretty close. Mom says to work most on En- glish, cause somehow it isn't so het. Oct. 26--Today is a red letter day for me. Went to the volleyball tournament Qgot off from school all afternoonl. Dad gave me a half dollar for expenses so I got five hot logs from the junior's thought 1'd probably be able to yell louder, but somehow I didn't feel much like yelling at all. Had a keen time though, but hated to see our girls lose to Fairview and our boys to Hancock. Guess they needed my rooting. Hancock sure must have felt proud--both their teams won the tournament. Oct. 27--Something happened to Margie. She seems diferent lately. Hardly talks to me except for getting my papers. I suggested going to the show, but she was going to the Girl Scout party in the gym. Oct. 28--As this is Sunday and I have some time, I've been reading the nSeoopW, which I got Friday. It's full of dogs Oct. 29--I liked the firstNScoopu so well that today I sub- scribed to it for the whole year. The editor said he'd let me know ahead of time when it was coming out, so's I could be sure to get one before they're all gone. Nov. l--Teachers' meeting at Clayton today and tomorrow. Nov. 16--Well, tonight I went up to the elementary school again for old times sake to see their circus. The place looked pretty good in a way but I think I'm more satisfied down at J. M. Vogt High School. Gosh, that's a pen full. Saw all the kids after CR - -7 doing. Sure spread it on thick. Gee, maybe I shou1dn't talk too much, cause most of them will be here themselves in January X145-1l'fs E E ,SMA MVA the circus and had a lot of fun talking to them about what I'n SMH5?SggmmmmZHQQ ' ??if4 hf?f?fS2 i :lekseasi Nov. 17-Went to the Junior dance and had another swell time.

Dec. 3--We lost our second basketball game to Normandy today. Score was 21 to 17. Dec. 5--Grade cards come out again. I went up in one and down in two. Aw gee, ain't it aggravating? Dec. 6--Decided I needed a little recreation so I went up to the operetta at the elementary school. Broke over and asked Margie to go along, but she didn't sean intrested.

But at the corner of Church and Maple Streets, Ferguson, Missouri, everything was dark and gloomy. Down the street came an ancestor, progenitor, or what have you, of the modern motor car. In other words, down the street came a Model T Ford. Puddle-jumping along Maple Avenue, Ferguson, Missouri, the driver Cwhom we shall call Elmerl spied another Ford of more recent vintage coming up Church Street, Ferguson, Missouri. As E1mer's vehicle had no brakes, he fervently hoped that the other car, piloted by one Tom Frost, would stop. However, Tom proceeded leisurely and blissfully on his way east on Church Street, Ferguson, Missouri. At this point we leave Elmer, thereby creating suspense in our story. Now we shall return to him. Now Elmer was a man of high character, who paid his in- come tax every year. Accordingly, when he saw that he could not stop his rambling fallopy, he endeavored to make the turn into Church Street, Ferguson, Missouri. However, the combined components of centrifugal force, centripetal force, gravity, and the effect of the moon on the tides prevented his doing so. He managed to score a hit on the telephone pole at the coutheast corner of Church and Maple Streets, Ferguson, Missouri with his right front wheel, which occurrence had disastrous ef- fect on the tire and steering gear. Elmer was found alive but senseless, which fact caused no comment. The score was now 1 to O in favor of Tom. Here we call an intermission of five minutes while the me- chanical hybrid is being put back together. We might mention an argument which almost caused the spilling of blood. One fac- tion claimed that the bolts which fell upon the street belonged to the car, while others maintained that they were merely false teeth from the mouth of Elmer's small dog. e I f 1' 'JJ 1935 CREST We QQ QX tl XXMW NX r s f F i5m5fw'wffts 5 i3i?5?i!GfJ3cQ Q . . .

Elmer attempted to make a U turn in Church Street, Ferguson, Missouri, but could not get the wheels straight again once he had them turned. Making almost a complete circle, the car banged up against the curb, knocking the wheel the other way and sending Elmer across the street CMaple Street, Ferguson, Missouri! into the wire support of a telephone pole. Once more we call an intermission for no good reason whatsoever. Finally E1mer's pride and joy was reassembled for the second time and sent hopping, skipping, and jumping down Maple Avenue, Ferguson, Missouri. Sworn to before a notary public CElea.nor Adams, for instancel on this 8th dey after the 28th day of April, 1935. ...Knowlton Caplan MY CAT I have a little pussy-cat. Her eyes are golden green.

But anyhow I love my cat. I like to hear her purr When she climbs on my lap to sleep- For me to stroke her fur. ...Joanna Barnes SOUTHERN BY-PATHS The state of Florida possesses an indefinable charm that is not found elsewhere in the country. Stopping for a picnic lunch in the northern part of the state in a grove of palms and tall pines, we examined at leisure fan-shaped palmettos and gray, clinging Spanish moss. The latter is an air plant which has roots but first grows on the highest branches of tall trees and next falls in bunches to cling and grow on lower ones. Even the wires and telephone poles have attached some of this wafting, mysterious plant. Driving southward we arrived at St. Augustine, reputed to be the oldest town in the United States. Here the streets are narrow, one-way affairs with houses and other buildings con- structed close to the still narrower sidewalks. These features combined with the overhanging balconies and iron-barred windows, make one think of a distant town of Europe. The ancient town square with its just as ancient public building has an ample supply of spreading, gigantic live-oak trees, loaded with sway- ing tendrils of Spanish moss. Sightseers travel about in four- seated carts, adding another picturesque note to the town. Then, as we left the town behind and crossed the Indian River Bridge, the Spanish prison, looming gray and forbidding, is seen a half- mile downstream. With this last picture we drove away still wrapped in a cloak of enchantment. On another sight-seeing tour we chose Lake Wales, a town in central Florida, which is the home of the Bok Singing Tower. Approaching this town, we found that the road wound around the lake, through theftown, and finally to the tower. Groves of orange and grapefruit trees stretch on both sides of the high- way. Then, arriving at the allotted parking space, we climbed a hill and trod sawdust paths which muffle all footsteps. Here we heard only the songs of birds, for the surrounding grounds are used as a bird sanctuary. Many strange and beautiful flow- ers, shrubs, and trees are carefully cultivated here. The a- bundance of azaleas ranging from white to deepest red is not- able, as are the regal lilies proudly swaying in a gentle 54 breeze. H- V, 1 U EST Qu , . ,fm gj4,.inevQ. , 1935 CREST N 52?

Following a path by the lake and meanwhile absorbing the delightful fragrance and perhaps feeling a bit of awe, we caught a glimpse of the tower framed by leafy tree tops, and hastened in order to observe it more closely. Standing in a clearing, this sandy colored tower is indeed lovely to the eye. The space at the top where the bells are placed is decorated by a sort of multi-colored mosaic. On the front of the tower is a huge sun dial, and just below it is a plate relating the fact that ex-President Coolidge dedicated this tower to the American people. Then, most beautiful of all, comes the carillen concert played by Anton Breese, who is seated at an instrument simi- lar to an organ. The bells peal out the harmonies of many different types of music--religious, folk, and classical. Reluctantly, after another stroll, we departed carrying a feeling of reverence toward the myriad beauties of Nature and Man. ...Elizabeth Abbott COMPARISON Grim buildings outlined against the sky - Myriad lights A thick pall of smoke overhanging all The city.

Q L 'S xhk ' x X ' 1935 We decided that I would sail the boat to San Diego, and they would come back by train three days later. I swam through the breakers out to the boat. As was usual at five e'clock, the water was chilly: you could see the bottom twenty-five feet down. Sunsets come quickly at sea, and with the sunset comes a chill wind. I tied the mainsheet fast so that I might change from my wet trunks. I knew this was a dangerous thing to do. Many a sailor, better than I, had capsized: for if you can't instantly let go of the main-sail, you're as good as over. By the time that I had slipped on a heavy peafjacket and dungarees, gulped the r maining coffee in the Thermos, a heavy wind had come up. The sea was choppy. The moonlight was romantically shining on the white caps raised by the wind--it was a shame to be alone on such a night. I was too comfortable to undo the fastened mainsheet, so I let it go. Memories of the many drowned by capsizing flitted across my tired brain. The cold water splashed menacingly against my bare feet. I shook myself suddenly awake. How terrible--I had slept at the wheel! The boat was capsizing rapidly filling with water. Nothing could be done. I must go overboard before I sank with it. As I pushed myself away, the stern sank under my weight. I swam toward the shore, using first the crawl, then the breast- stroke. Heavens, I was tiring and the shore was sg far away. I must rest, so--ever on my back, and then after eternity, I started to swim backstreke. I slowly grew numb, first my legs became heavy, then my arms, I was going to sleep, but I mustn't ---I mus t n't, I M U S N---. Suddenly I felt the firm sand under my numb body. Things seemed to fade, and then I fell asleep. I woke up to the swish of water and creek of oarlocks--- that was it: I was in a boat. Could it be the river Stix? If so, I must be dead. I must have become unconscious again, for when I awoke--that is, unless I was dead--I was being carried up a black cliff. I heard voices, and slowly like one coming out of a fog, I recognized my three companions. I tried to thank them, but they told me to nshut my trap and stop wig- g1ing.n Everything faded again, than I was burning up--surely I was burning in Hell, fer there were queer distorted faces all around me: this must be my punishment. Out of the gloom I came, and slowly the faces narrowed down to three, Mark, Ross and Jack. We were in a fisherman's cottage, and they had piled hot stones around me that I might regain consciousness. cane the dawn, and 1 was glad, for night fantasies flee in the face of light. Mark came in, and we talked of many things. I could see that he was ill at ease: for he tried 'i' rhfiisea to lead the conversation around so he might naturally ask me an otherwise awkward question.

She is painted a shiny black with a wide red stripe around the body suggesting the streamline stripes on the more expensive models of cars. As you look more closely, however, you can easily tell many more reasons why Lizzie is different. The first great distinction is that instead of the usual wooden spokes, Lizzie has wire wheels which give a nimbleness to her appearance in keeping with her reputation for pud- dle-jumping. When you look at her from the front you notice that she also has two chromium plated parking lights in addi- tion to the two original lights. She boasts also a shiny spot-light which adorns her side. If you.walk around to the rear, a single glance is enough to convince you that she is different. There, proudly in reserve, is a fifth wheel, just like that of a costly car. Quite as noticeable is the fact that Liz- zieu does not have the three rectangular Ford windows. In their place are two oval glass ones. Her crowning glory is her horn. When touched we hear not the usual UHonk ugau but a soft musical UToo doodle eyoun for Jim's WLizzieW proudly sports a courtesy horn found usually only on Cadillacs or Packards. A peep inside the body brings out the difference, small in itself, but suggestive of endless fun on a camp- ing trip. The back of the front seat has been cut and fastened by hinges in such a way that by simply removing two steel pins at the side, it can be let down to lie on a level with the back seat. Thus Jim's Ford can be trans- formed into a comfortable sleeping car. To others Jim's ULizzieu may be only a Ford, but to Jim and his pals, she is in a class by herself. ...Mary Louise Adams CREST W GHT T S 1 1 , Moot LI A EA SMi?sQiWY5WWWym1 N, .u1s9'F..3,lssL Far out on the beautiful blue Mediterranean, the cruiser g3g12g'5ig5 igg52 moves lazily en. Leaning over the rail, gazing into space, we sec a distant ship framed by the bright new moon--a moon 'K that is as wise and as old as time itself, sending its silver rays as shafts of light to the weary world. The cold waters shimmer as the greatest of all search- lights turns its rays on the infinite blue-green depths and its myriads of sea animals. Look! was that a shark? No, just another fantastic form of wave to excite our imagination for a brief second. Our pulse races as we see a fish leap into the air, and still another--just two adventurers who thought the sea wasn't large enough to hold both of them and all of their brethren. Suddenly a strand of floating seaweed--shaped like an octopus--attracts us. If it were an octopus, would you try to capture it for your collection of wild animals at hone? No, you would be content to believe that it was only a sea- weed or perhaps Spirogyra er Pleurococcus. The distant ship, still framed by the moon, moves nearer and nearer, but always in the path which is illumined directly before it. Is the cruiser, the distant ship, or the silvery moon moving? Ne one knows, and perhaps no one cares so long as we are at sea--any sea--on a moonlight night. ...Claire Conradi 1935 CREST N ig XX K TM Y X mv TW' I 'x 4 I o new Y Wum-UX44 ni xx - I 1' aM-mzsallfi.

Yellow ornaments shone on rough moccasins of soft deer leather. A dull band held in place the white mass of savage head-dress feathers. Bound about tawny hips and exposing dusky thighs was the single art- icle of clothing, a scanty loose garment. Astride a Ubare-backedu horse an Indian nomad prayed. His anis were eutflung and his head thrown back in token of his complete submission. Vermillion lips moved silent- ly and primitive eyes with dark fire in their shady depths were directed upwards. The red-skin was motionless and his horse was like a creature cut in bronze. They stood upon a barren acclivity, those two, the rider and the ridden. Both had traveled far. The dumb patience of the thorough-bred was proof of its weariness and exhaustion. The fatigue of the man showed in the drooping lines of his primordial face. Completely un- armed the savage was at the mercy of his surroundings. He had reached the summit of a rocky difficult climb. His was without food or means to secure it. There was not even so much as a Ubowu. In the background a white maze of clouds rolled over and over like sultry waves of mist. Stretching above them the heavens shone deep blue. The cry of the primitive as- cended above the confusion of the cloud banks to the clear calm beyond. ...June Robinson POEMS By Jeanne LaBerge My Secret Love As the night wind blows against my cheek, I close my eyes to rest. It cools my fevered brow, I smile To feel it softly press Against me in the starry night, And thrill at its slight touch.

Do we find beauty in the truth: Of ideals turned to clay: Or disappointment in the end To see the truth each day? Do we find beauty in the truth, Of friends we find untrue: Or does it seem unreal to us, The things we often do? Do we find beauty in the truth, That work is work, not play: Or does it hurt to know the truth Of things we do and say? Do we find beauty in the truth Of knowing not what seems Or do we find the beauty there In disappointed drowns? e1f- --Y CREST 1 , 1,9 fig ns iwmmgi 1935 CREST wwllt Y In X WW A D 2 W mm , 'X 4 'X I s- iVji?f??fE?

The boys build boats and neroplenes To the tune of e creek running past The children play hide and seek there As the hours go swiftly past. The favorite nook for reading Is in one of the branches high Here many a pleasant hour is spent As the clouds go drifting by. In spring it is most beautiful With its blossoms of pinkish white And a touch of green showing here and there It's really e wonderful sight. In su nor its beauty lingers on For the cherries have ripened by new And the birds are singing and chirping about And hopping from bough to bough. In fell when the leaves are bright and gay And the days are not so long The birds as they wing their Way to the South Are singing their farewell song. In winter it stands all bleak and bare As the cold winds blow from for and wide Could anything be as lones me now, fi-s the olfl cherry tree by the roadside. ...Catherine Merciel .DIGGING UP THE- PAST CPootry written in the Eighth Grade, I Vacation The children are coming, For their sohnol work is done They are laughing and humming Since vacation has come.

Be it my liberty to censure others when my own individualism fif I have anyl is not emp- able of the conventionalism which is en essential to e pro- position. As e precedent to this I wish to state that before any step is taken one must recognize the belligerency of the ether. The old adage Unll is fair in love and warn was originated because of its very close symbolism. Recognition must also be taken of that im ortel clause in the marriage testimony uuntil doeth dost thou partn. The individuel who originated such a farce must have forgotten the ueesy come, easy gon, method and must not have heard of Reno: or perhaps it was placed there for its supreme euphony You know boys, women are extremely whimsical'beings. Some look like paradoxes of nature: others like relics of some antiquated sculpturingg still others resemble Aurora herself. But beauty being only skin deep is e good remon- strmtien for that Nmight ben good quality, and therefore, there is hardly any praising quality in the opposite sex. But even so, some of you gentlemen Cmeaning boysl insist on marching to your destiny, the altar. Nevertheless, unwary ones, I have this little advice for you: If you ever have n flair And you're off up in the air Den't worry 'bout that flat You've always got the spare. ...Johnnie Crewe PUT!

However before we start I should like to tell you about a falling star I once ob- served. One evening, years age, I was seated on my front porch, as usual, studying the heavenly bodies. Imagine my surprise when the very one I was looking at began to fall right towards me. There I sat---unable to move---- terrified. Faster and faster it came until with a terrible crashing and booming it ae.ng ' pmt my Whisker Qsingularl and landed in a swamp. Instantly, a terrible fire broke out causing total distruction to our swamps. Since no fire department was available, we were forced to wait several hours while the fire cooled off. As soon as possible we rushed through the smeuldering coals to find the star. At last we came upon it, a great hole in the ground filled with glowing coals and debris. Snatching our shovels we went to work in an effort to dig it up. Hours passed ----- would we not find it ------ more digging---gang--- a sharp crack, and eneiof us had found something. Quickly we uncovered it, a great dark piece of material. Up we lifted it and carried it to the house, where we examined it more carefully. Having found nothing very extraordinary on the outside we decided to break it open. Having succeeded in breaking it, imagine our surprise to find it frozen solid! nHow can that ben exclaimed another. Simply this children. Since nothing exists in outer space, no friction can exist. Therefore the star was cold. When it arrived at the earth, the sudden change of tempera- ture started the fire. This heated the star and so it melted its way into the earth, where it was so cold it froze the inside of the star. There ---- simple, isn't it?

Besides the fact that Mr. Schulze traded in his venerable member of the happy family for a more sprightly speci- men, our new members, Mr. Grace, Mr. Judy, and Mr. Smith each brought an addition, aside from the fact that Mr. Grace does not have a car. No mention will be made of Mr. Crockett's Ford. However, there was one loss which affected us very deeply. It was the loss of Miss Claus' car. Now there was a grand old car. It faithfully carried Miss Claus to school every day Cwhich is no small job, you knowb and took her back again, But Miss Claus, the fickle thing, tired of her car and traded it off for a new one. The new car was very lovely, but it seems that some- one else also admired it. One dark night the car disappeared, and the student body almost pined to death. Mr. Schulze's new car is a great help to some certain people. Besides aiding Mr. Schulze, it also rides many of our illustrious students. Every noon hour, the door of this vehicle is wide open to receive Mr. Schulze, But he almost dies of fright when he sees the great horde of students Cmostly Seniorsl that makes the springs sag to the limit of Hooke's law. Miss Hofriehter's car has not been mentioned as being in our collection, as it is always absent upon an errand. However, a certain Junior boy finds it very convenient. Mr. Judy is continually holding his car up for an example. CMy, but he's strongl. He says it illustrates perfectly the prin- ciple that something that is cold does not function as well as some thing that is hot. Mr. Crockett's Ford what can one expect of a can remember when it was An old Buick is the seems to be in fine shape. But, after all Ford? No doubt, as a History teacher, he coined. latest addition to our academy of rolling stones. Some persons Cradicalsl say that IT claims allegiance to Mr. Smith, but it is extremely hard to believe that Mr. Smith could do such a thing as selling the old one-hoss shay and buying a hay- burner--I mean gas-burner. We hereby make a resolution for the faculty Calthou h they rarely accept our resolutionsl that they fol- low the example of Mr. McCluer and buy new cars. If they would it would greatly reduce the smart cracks can be made work of the Annual Staff, and because no about a new car. ...Know-all-ton CREST Q I ' Eljii 4'1l2NNi5xtniMw wNW'es sQgrr1n5Nf iihgwmwms - h5?Wf:xW '-.

I wish and hope the other class Would go sit on a pin. No matter how fast we work The other class is ahead: And so I hope you take a.part In what is being said. The other class, it seems to me, Is just a bunch of sissies. And so I hope they get the point And learn the poem NNarcissiosU. The other class, as we all know Is just another fake. And all the other classes hope That they will jump in the lake. ...Jack Nathan He asked her to wed And all that she said Was, UGO to fatheru.

And down the track a Soph did skip A train he, too, did meet The Soph has made his final trip The desk is now a vacant seat. A Junior then his luck would try As down the track he strolled.
