Two Western Slope championships were taken and t o seconds. The foothull season c 03ed finding the Tigers one place removed front the coveted championship. Sickness and Injuries during tin cnt'rc season proved a deciding handicap. More material reported for practice and a larger number stayed through the entire eason than ever before. The close of the basketball season saw the Tigers easy champions of this slope. The Tigers tried for state honors at Boulder, but were not very fortunate. Ti e Tigresses lost by a close margin the title of the valley to the Fruita sextette, who were defeated at the Western Slope meet by the Glen wood team, twice defeated by the Tigresses. The Glen wood team took the slope title. The track season was the best in years, the Tigers being the best physically and the best trained team on the slope. The Tigers were easy victors over the other contestants of tte slope in the Montrose meet. They also placed second in the state meet at Boulder, won the relay and broke a state record in the high jump. In baseball there is a good chance for a championship, if they make good on all the re=t of the conference games.

The Tigers were considered by all the teams they played, even the champions, to be the strongest team on the slope.

This has been a fair season for baseball in that the coaching and training have been broken into by other events. However, the Tigers made a real try for the slope title. The team as a whole showed good baseball playing and is a credit to the year s athletics for the High School. There will be six men lost by graduation; but, with the old material remaining and the new aspirants coming out. a championship team should be developed next year.

Western Slope Rhetorical Champions CHIS year, so great was the enthusiasm aroused over Rhetoricals, it was necessary to hold two different preliminary' recitals. Following are the results of all decisions: Learned Oration.—Eugene Mast, Martin Heidgen, Freeman Campbell, Victor Wagler, Carl Grove, Covey Lee. Victor Wagler won first place; Martin Heidgen, second. Original Oration.—Claude Pynch, John Wolf, Dalton Trumbo. Dalton Trumbo, first; Claude Pynch, second. Humorous Reading.—Charlotte Manning, Lois Green, Isabella Cunningham, Oryl Stamm. Margaret Halligan, Viola Jones. Lois Green, first; Margaret Halligan, second. Argument.—Marie Fuite, Bayard Rhone, Dalton Trumbo. Dalton Trumbo, first; Marie Fuite, second. Dramatic Reading.—Alice Campbell, Amy Belle MacKinnon, Mark Schmidt. Louise Jones, Selma McQueen. Bryson Jaynes, Charles Parkes, Ruth Griffin, John Wolf. Bryson Jaynes, first; Mark Schmidt, second. IN 1919, for the first time, G. J. H. S. was admitted to the Western Slope. Rhetorical Meet, and we sent a team consisting of John Cottrell, original oration; Bernard Wolverton, argument; Lois Hopkirk, humorous reading, and Georgia Seely, dramatic reading. Of this team, Wolverton got second place in the argument and Cottrell third in the oration, In 1920 our team consisted of John Cottrell, original oration; Harry Peabody, argument; Wallace Mast, learned oratior Huldah Julius, dramatic reading, and Beth Der-ryberry, morous reading. Of this team we only placed two—Ma ' rst in learned oration and Cottrell third in «he origii Tigers sent Wallace Mast, learned oration; Hai.. Tiginal; Farrie Veatch, argument; Gladys Palmer, u and Beth Derryberry, humorous. We placed one niui his time, getting first in the learned oration, second in dramatic reading and third in the ho-morous. Last year our enthusiasm in rhetorical work took i long step forward, due to the influence of the coach, Mis Walter, and Reginald Smith. So many students enters: the preliminaries that it was necessary to hold these fi two evenings. Our team, as finally selected, consisted-Grant Smith, argument; Dalton Trumbo, original; Ref inald Smith, learned; Bryson Jaynes, dramatic, and Ma garet Boroughs, humorous. This year, for the first tiir we won the rhetorical meet with a total of 49 joints a: the following places: First in learned, second each J original, dramatic and humorous. This year our enthusiasm has run even higher, di-laigely to our Rhetorical Club. The preliminaries wer more closely contested than ever. Our team as final chosen, consisted of Dalton Trumbo, original oration an argument: Victor Wagler, learned oration; Bryson Jayne dramatic reading, and Lois Green, humorous readit This time we placed every member of the team, winni: three first in original oration, learned oration and dr matic reading, and third in argument and humorous ret ing. Thus, for the second time, we came home with 1 three-year Rhetorical cup, having won it by a large n jority of points, since we totaled 66, and Delta, our n est competitor, had only 4 4. We are also very proud the fact that we had the high point man—Dalton Tnr bo, with a total of 34 points. The prospects for winning the Rhetorical cup agi this year are exceedingly good, as we are losing very-tie of our rhetorical material by graduation. Just here we should mention the Rhetorical CH which is rapidly becoming an important factor in t school life. This year, one of the big events of the was the rhetorical play, “In Walked Jimmy.” It is'• plan of the club to make the rhetorical play an antf event. [Page S i x t e« Debating CHIS year we ha.e taken a great deal of interest in another branch of rhetorical work—debating. G. J. H. S. is now a member of the State Debating League. As a starter, tie Juniors challenged the Seniors to an annual Junior-Senior debate. This debate was held the last of January on the question: Resolved that Colorado should adopt a law providing for an income tax as a substitute for the present general property tax. The Senior team consisted of Marie Fuite, Selma McQueen and Paul Jones, while the Junior team was made up of Dalton Trumbo, Eugene Mast and Bayard Rhone. The Juniors won with the negative side of the question. From this group, Marie Fuite, Dalton Trumbo and Eugene Mast were chosen to represent the school in the first interschool debate with Meeker, February 10th. Lots were drawn to determine sides and the affirmative fell to us. Unfortunately we lost this debate, which fact put us out of the rare for this year. However, enthusiasm has not waned, and we are planning on an aggressive debating season next year. That interest in debating is keen in G. J. H. S. is evidenced by the fact that many debates have been held in the various History, English and Economic classes of the school, and that the debating coach tas had many calls for rules, material and judges for debates during the past four months. With such an enthusiastic spirit and a desire to work and win, we should have a team next year which will win net only the Western Slope debates but the state debate as well. EMMA GROOM.

The membership of the club is composed entirely of High School boys who have proven themselves leaders of the student body. During the school year of 1921-22 the club gave two plays, the proceeds of which went to the purchase of twelve handsome orange-and-black blankets which were presented to the High School for members of the athletic teams. Black sweaters were also presented to the members of the girl's basketball team, which won the slope championship in that year. Ribbons were awarded for first, second and third places at the Western Slope Track and Rhetorical Meet. The year 1922-23 lias, in many respects, been the most successful year of the club. Their principal achievement has been the raising of funds for the Helen Dewey Memorial. This task was successfully carried out. and a beautiful white marble shaft was purchased, together with a eun-dial to rest on it. The club also purchased ribbons for the Western Slope Field and Rhetorical Meet and established the annual J-R Leadership cup for the best leader in High School during the four-year course.

The reason why public schools cost more money is easily explained. First, the quantity of education diffused is greater. The school terms have been lengthened steadily, and a larger percentage of pupils has been held in the schools over a larger age period. In other words, children have been brought Into the schools at an earlier age. have been given a larger school year and a larger percentage has been kept through the higher grades and the high school. The element of quantity has also been augmented through diversification, namely: through the introduction or special studies. These have been extended into the domain of art and science and various cultural branches. Commerce and Industry have made their demands. The home has sought special refinements and efficiencies at the hands of the schools. The vocational era has come upon us. The school service has been carried even farther, to the extent that the physical welfare of the child has been a matter of school concern; physical examination has come upon the scene with its corrective influence. The eyes, ears and throats of children are looked after: the question of nutrition and placing the child in a teachable position have come into play. The service of the school having been expanded to a marvelous scope, it remains to ascertain whether the quality of that service is all it ought to be. Here the answer ma be made in the affirmative. Means for making the test have also been brought into use, and the schoolmaster is equipped to demonstrate the quality of the school plant product as well as the quantity. If the old-time factory apprentice system has declined, it is because the employer looks to the school for his skilled mechanic; if the merchant spends less time training his clerk, it is because he expects the school to supply him with promising recruits; if the household shows greater efficiency, it i because the school has provided some training; if we find more red-cheeked children than anaemic children, it is because the school has been serving. and, if we find boys from the humble homes rise to positions of importance and usefulness, it is because the schools have made it possible. All of which means that, if society imposes larger duties and responsibilities upon the schools and exacts more service, it must expect to pay a larger price. If it is paying more for schools, it is paying '.ess for something else. The modern era has learned that it is a better investment to spend money for schools. R. K. TOPE. Superintendent of Schools.

The Eighth Grade and Its Future e'HE Eighth Grade welcomes this opportunity of hav-C J ing a little space in the pages of the ‘‘Tiger to speak its piece and make its bow. Though we have been relegated to the lowest depths of the building ami realize that it is a long and painful climb to the dizzy realms where the Seniors dwell (we have occasionally been permitted a peek at these celestial realms when, invited up to “pep” meetings, we drape ourselves around the walls to the tune of “How Green They Are. doubtless adding to the decorative effect), yet we realize also that the Seniors were once such as we, and thereby take heart. We confidently predict a rosy future for the Class of 27. because we have such splendid material at the start. We have future track-team stars, football heroes and basketball victors. We took fourth place in one of the Rhetorical, which, in the course of our evolution upward, predicts third place for next year, second place when we are Sophs and sweepstakes in our Junior and Senior years. Our essayists, cartoonists, operatic stars and actors promise a brilliant future for G. J. H. S. “We’ve got the goods—just watch us grow!” To the incoming Eighth Graders we offer greetings, bequeathing them our seats in the lower regions, the kindly ministrations of our teachers, without whom we would have been unable to climb the next rung of the ladder, and the unprecedented example which we set for them in scholarship, class spirit, conduct(?). mature vision and moral rectitude. MADGE BAYLIS, Class Reporter. PEPTOMETER CONTEST After much labor on the part of Bryson Jaynes, the secretary of the Boosters Club, we have the compiled results of the Peptometer contest, which show the Eighth Grade to be in the lead by a safe majority. Points made by those in Rhetoricals are included in Athletics; points under Assembly include all made by those participating in the Operetta and Minstrel Show.

Last Will and Testament Senior Class hereby wills the following sacred ycJ and revered mementoes to the lowly Juniors, to have and hold one year: The dust from some hundred seats in the assembly, to be applied to the seats of their pants. The oil from the machines of learning in the class rooms of our renowned Miss Ela and Mr. Arms, to be applied to their rusty brains. Our worries “for fear we flunk.” In addition— Harold Zimmerman leaves his Delta Dice to Jim Bussey with the remark, “I did it; so can you.” Dizzy entrusts Vivian to Carl Groves, and adds: I wouldn't trust Lyle with any woman.” Joe 0. says he will give his reputation for dancing to Glenn Vickery, if he gets through; if he doesn't, he still wants it. The class leaves its good w ill to the school, as it won’t have money enough to get anything else. Vestal Bell leaves the J-R Club to Dalton with the remark, “You always ran it, anyway.” The class leaves about half its membership to the school in order to be remembered. Dick Albright leaves his love of study to Ellen Page, and full instructions how' to use it turnished on application. Harry Hayinan leaves Beulah to Harry Draper, because “she’s just wild about Harry. H. Shults offers to swap his motorcycle for Bussey’s motorboat. Leonard J. leaves the Boosters Club to Donald Tope. If there is anything forgotten, it goes to Art D., for he'd take it anyway. We leave the si hool building to the janitor, hoping the school board won’t object. Signed this 5th day of June. Witnesses; SENIOR CLASS. CHEM I. STRY. E. X. GLISH. TR HIHOVS Vfttarv Public. Class History XX the fall of 1920 t e leases ana grass around G. J. H. S. began to get brown; but no one noticed it because a hundred new Freshmen furnished the green in the landscape. But these were not ordinary Freshmen. They belonged to a class destined to mark a new era in our High School iile. The first year was beset with the tragedies t at always befall Freshmen. It rained on the day set lor the Freshman picnic; the class lost its president, Milo Wormell, about the middle of the year, and so generally misbehaved that all the Freshmen teachers refused to come back next year! In the Sophomore year we began to get our ideas. We elected officers early, and Eugene Kenney piloted our class through a most successful year, terminated in the best Sophomore banquet ever given. Sophomore girls began to be noticed for their scholarship, Soph boys for their dancing and good looks. The track team, composed mostly of Sophomores, won the Western Sloi e c hampion-ship at Montrose. In our Junior year we selected our class pins and chose Jeff Bell to be president. He is to be complimented on his management of class affairs, for the treasury showed a balance instead of a deficit, and a good sum was realized on the Junior-Senior banquet—a thing that had never happened before. And now we are at the end of our Senior year. We hope to have proven worthy leaders of the school. The Operetta and Piggleteria have been successes and three Western Slope Championship cups have been left for the school. In this, our last year, we have tried to live UP to the dignity of Seniors and to set a worthy example for the rest of the school. Dick Albright has made a fitting president. But. w hatever our record of good and had. we will live our lives happier for having gone through the dearest of all schools—G. J. H. S. R.

According to the recorded point system, the following are the best athletes cf the school: Elvin Sloan_______148% Elmer Hampson-----114 Lyle Oates .......- 144 % George MacKinnon. 112% Ted C. Jones______135 Edward Whalley— 106% Floyd Clark......— 120 The Cooley Museum One of the finest thing that Grand Junction High School is in possession of at the present time is the Emma Erwin Cooley museum. This was donated to the school last year by Mrs. Cooley. The animals and articles composing the museum constitute a very valuable collection and show the result of many years’ study ana work. This collection is in a private room where visitors and school members may go ai any time. During the past year many students and outsiders have gone through the museum, all praising and talking of t e wide field which it covers. Our High School is proud to be able to boast of owning such a magnificent museum. Headlines of Future Dailies Bell Enraged: Threatened to Punch Sloan.

[Page Tlilrty-Four] A Resume of the Upper Classes in G. j. H. S. CHEMISTRY Chemistry is no longer a study having a technical use and application only. An elementary knowledge, at least, of this great subject is nowadays necessary’ to the profit and enjoyment which an educated person expects to derive from his daily reading of newspapers and magazines. Anyone who has even a moderately alert mind wants to know what is going on in Uis wonderful and rapidly-moving modern world. Let our students, therefore, realize that the reason why they are now asked to take in reasingly liberal amounts of scientific instruction, both :n school and in college is because their lives as thinkers and observers would not be well rounded, if they lacked this essential part of an up-to-date education. They should, in fact, develop a real zest for a kind of knowledge which will make life for them a richer and happier experience. R. H. ARMS. ENGLISH Every English course includes several branches of knowledge, all of which must be kept in mind, though some are stressed more than others in the different years of the High St hool course. In the Senior year the history or English literature is especially studied. To understand any age or people, we must read not only their history which records their deeds, but their literature, which records the ideals or dreams that made their deeds possible. So a history of English literature traces from their source those ideals of liberty, truth, justice, duty and faith, which are the foundation stores of good citizenship and which have made the English-speaking peoples the greatest in the world. MISS ELA. HISTORY DEPARTMENT The history of a nation is not a subject that can be considered by itself. To make it at all complete, the relations of all the people of the earth must come into the account. The study of History is a search for the laws of human action, and we learn that every historical event has a moral significance. Human progress is like a great river, in which the water that has come down from the distant mountains mingles with t. e water that each new branch pours in. The continuity thus given to History shows now we of the present day are the heirs of countless ages, now our Inheritance consists of ideas, institutions, knowledge, civilization, and how each generation adds its contribution of good or evil to this inheritance. And finally, and perhaps most significant of all we live in a democratic- age. in a time when we condemn oligarchy, autocracy and special privileges of even sort, and when we affirm that all human beings are equal in civil and political rights and t at all should participate on the same footing in the conduct of public affairs. MR. CRAVEN. TRIGONOMETRY Ths course covers the use of logarithms, the solution oi trigonometric equations, the development of all for- rr!o!ISiU8ei,an 1 the solution the right and the oblique mangle. The examples have been selected with care that applications may cover a wide field and include problems in heights and distances, surveying, navigation, engineering, astronomy and physics. MISS HOFFMAN. SPANISH We are about to close a very successful year’s work in our Spanish classes. The students in the First Year clasess have made a n i y the fundamentals of grammatical construction na have endeavored to secure an active vocabulary. Along with this technical study they have translated some simple and interesting stories. To help the students acquire a good pronunciation and better accent, we have used the educational records which were made by Senor Agremonte of Columbia University. I he work of the Second Year classes has consisted very largely of composition and translation. Each composition lesson, however, has carried with it a practical review of grammatical forms. Tne translations have been made ot pleasing stories which are typical of Spanish life. About one hundred students registered this year in the Spanish courses, and the work has progressed in a very satisfactory manner. MRS. CULLEN. WHY STUDY LATIN ? In answer to the question, “What is the use of studying Latin?” we would like to mention the following results that should follow' the study of Latin. 1. “Enrichment ot the English vocabulary. New words are added and their exact meaning and values are understood. 2. Accurate knowledge of the English sentence. Its analysis and synthesis, with appreciation of word, phrase and clause relations become fixed In the mind. 3. Foundation is laid for modern-language study. 4. An insight into Roman civilization, its laws, customs. religion and ordinary life, and a consequent appreciation of our indebtedness to the past. 5. Habits of industry and concentration. d. Clearness and accuracy of thought and expression and intelligent criticism of oral and written speec h.” MISS TAYLOR. ATHLETICS IN THE GRAND JUNCTION HIGH SCHOOL Athletics has come to mean the intensive training of a small group of individuals, a team, to compete against a small group of trained individuals from another school AND WIN. There are over six hundred boys and girls in the Grand Junction High School. Each rear more than two thousand dollars is spent training less than fifty of the boys and ten of the girls to win championships. The remainder of this large group is on the sidelines, or is supposed to be. urging the teams to victory. This displav of ability and loyalty is a fine thing and has a high training value; hut does it represent the greatest value to the greatest number? Would it not be better to see this entire group better developed physically, better able to co-ordinate mind and muscle, carry on team-work, and think clearly and quickly while in action, because they, too. have had a chance to participate inAthletics? Specialization has meant elimination. Generalization would mean larger participation. Which do we want? J. F. BEATTIE. If you were asked when you finish school. “What do you remember ;rom your high school days?” undoubtedly “Athletics”—if you have ever been a participant—will be one answer. Why? Because it was such fun and because it gave you training in sportsmanship and fair play — two prominent and valuable ethical and social lessons” which, perhaps, you would never have gained so thoroughly in any other way. In addition, an athlete learns how to so-operate, how to put forth his best effort how to play team-work, how to “size up a situation and act quickly, and the value of consistent and conscientious prac tice. These are important things to cultivate in athletics and hold good in any line of work vou choose to follow. If you have any inclination to take part in athletics and in this way represent your high school and. in so doing, yourself, come out next year. WTe need You. MISS SEIVERS.
