F. BITTNER PRINCIPAL OUR PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE To the Class of January, 1934: An important and interesting period of your life closes when we hand you a high school diploma. To you it may not seem other than a natural event. Reflect, go over in mind your many experiences in these all too short years, and you may partially ELIZABETH McGAW C. E. SCOTT D E A N VICE PRINCIPAL realize what has been crowded into them. We trust you feel that, all in all, your stay has been happy and successful. May your growth physically, mentally, and spiritually have been that which fits you for what lies ahead. It is well you can not look behind the veil of the future, but you can look forward, face the pleasures, disappointments, and obligations of citizenship with courage, strength, and high hopes. Much is not well with the world in which we live. Many complain, criticize, and do little. Others endeavor to lift up, to raise the level of living for their fellows as well as for themselves. We are confident you belong to the latter. We cherish our associations with you and are grateful to you for your splendid contribution to the life of Grant High School. Sincerely, A. F. Bittner. AN APPRECIATION In every situation there are those who guide and those who are guided. Very often the guides do not receive recognition or appreciation for the services rendered. But generally deep inside the person guided there is a feeling of intense gratitude and friendliness which does not express itself until a sudden thought or circumstance CLASS ADVISORS Mr. Horning Mr. Nottage Mr. Keeney Mr. Rickies Miss Davis Miss Clarke Miss Hoel Miss McGill Miss Wuest brings about the realization of that feeling. Such is the experience of the Class of January '34. When we entered four years ago, a bewildered and timid group, we accepted the helpful guidance of Miss McGaw, Mr. Bittner, and Mr. Scott, without stopping to consider how indebted we were to them for the rapid adjustment to this strange existence. Although we were not actually aware of it, the faculty soon joined their ranks, and through kindly advice and welcome explanations acquainted us with a heretofore unexplored world. With our sophomore year came the problems of preparing to become upper classmen, but with newly-found confidence we believed ourselves to be capable of meeting single-handed these perplexities, overlooking again the assistance of our leaders. As Juniors we faced the battle of becoming Seniors, and again with the unknown aid of the administration and the faculty such minor details as courses of study, credits and personal aptitude were dealt with daily, gladly and sympathetically. In the fourth year class advisors, who, by their friendly cooperation and sympathetic understanding, helped us through the numerous and intricate Senior activities, aided in making the last year an unforgetable one. Senior year! To the Freshman those words are magic, but to the Senior — a blank, dreary feeling. With the thought of graduation, which necessitates leaving behind this intimate and familiar world, losing the many friendships formed among the teaching staff, and going out into a strange, formidable world, comes realization, realization that at Grant we have been guided surely and kindly through high school by the loyalty, the understanding, and the compassion of the teachers.

PRODUCTION STAFF Director Business Manager Assistant Business Manager Stage Manager Property Manager Wardrobe Mistress Miss Marie Churchill George Young Bob Meany John Meek Clarice Nyberg Dorothy Mulholland C L A S S DIARY FRESHMEN January 20, 1930 — Oh my, the wonderful day has arrived when I become the noteworthy Class of 1934 ... to be. What a good-looking Freshie I am, gathered from fifty-seven varieties of grammar schools. You never can tell just how I will turn out. Keep an eye on me if you wish to see some history made. 215 strong, I am, out of a huge school of 2,325. I wonder if they sell milk? February 19, 1930 — The big, splendiferous-looking Student Body Prexy spoke to the rowdy male part of me, today, while Miss McGaw became acquainted with the gentle female section. I feel at home. Why, even the traffic officers don't scare me! February 19, 1930 — The uppish Seniors gave a program all for me — the Freshie Frolic — and served the grandest stuff to eat, ice cream, suckers, and all. The jokes were so rare that I almost split my sides giggling when Doctor Sawbone with his two petite young nurses operated on a woebegone eighth termer. March 7, 1930 — Now I have arrived, and can take my proper place in society. I gave the Freshmen's Program and Reception. It was mainly the exciting play, Nevertheless. I know that I possess talent for acting. Isn’t it a shame Hollywood can't see me now? September 2, 1930 — What a thrilling feeling it is to view the first termers with scorn! For now I am a lofty, elevated second termer — not Freshies, but Freshmen. I'll have you know. A part of me breaks into print every now and then — the cashiers, Girls' League representatives, room reps, literary section of the Grantonian. Last term seven per cent of me had E. November 3, 1930 — Thirteen of me are on the city Math team with a brilliant future in store. Now if x=z, and y=z, does x=y? SOPHOMORES January 26, 1931 —Since I am a third termer, I can join clubs. Won't I have a jolly time showing off? Wonder what ones to join? What if I pick the wrong pew? Life gets more complicated all the time — when one gets along in the world. April 13, 1931 —Skipped over hill and dale capturing bugs. It wasn't a spring dance putting elusive crawling things into jars and sending them to the happy hunting ground. Ugh, the way that beetle flopped over and passed out. September I, 1931—Hurrah, I rate. Transferred from the basement — which dates me as being nothing but a mere infant — to the first floor. I knew they wouldn't forget us — such a dear bouncing baby. JUNIOR May 4, 1932 — Part of me placed third in a track meet held today. I got that practice walking home. From where? March 28, 1932 — A few of the lovely dresses I made were displayed in the showcase. What lines! they all cry. I wonder what lines they mean? Some of the term projects of this fifth term were sent back East to the Teachers' Conference. Now, I ask you, are we coming along! June 9, 1932 — Since one of the fifth termers was on the tennis team this year, the season was very successful. The stock in the class rises! September 23, 1932 — Seven other terms and myself dedicated the murals in honor of the life and ideals of William Fletcher, first principal of Grant High School. These murals, the art work of Carl Hoeckner, were placed in the school auditorium. November 21, 1932 — I am having a keen time in parliamentary law arguments, those thrilling debates, and one of the sixth termers, a football hero of renown, was acclaimed member of both the Oregonian and Journal all-star teams. November 30, 1932 — First and second term typing students were awarded SO many certificates. I'm good in more than one thing! SENIOR January 25, 1933 — Up to our elite reg. rooms on the second floor. Are we Seniors, or are we Seniors? February 18, 1933 — At last I chose the seventh term debaters by elimination process. Watch me sweep the audience in laughs and tears with my eloquence. March 16, 1933 —The semi-annual seventh and eighth debate was gloriously won by the seventh termers. The sarcasm was delicious; it oozed with sweet honey. March 29, 1933 — Since I am an extremely versatile being, part of me placed first in the piano division at the Forest Grove musical contest, while another section won first prize in a fudge contest at Grant. Home and abroad victorious! April II, 1933 — I dramatized stirring scenes from Macbeth. Gory details of the murder of Duncan, the sleep-walking scene, etc. I made all blood curdle . . . thick as real sour milk. April 26, 1933 — Selected the May Queen, who reigns at the May Fete at Grant, from my ranks. Such a lovely looking person that we all are proud of her. May 4, 1933 — My artist drew a winner in the annual poppy day poster contest, while the golf teams are leading the league. May II, 1933 — Elected our Student Body President and officials. Who would imagine the day would ever come? Also made history in that our Class of '34 elected the Class president unanimously. May 26, 1933 — Seventh and eighth term dance in the gym. Isn't it odd, balloons have such an attraction to Seniors! October 27, 1933 — I revived the dying tradition of the big brother and sister idea for the Freshie Frolic with the three teenie weenie pigglets and big bad wolf symphony. My, the Frosh are becoming sophisticated, while the Seniors are turning naive! Or, perhaps, it was merely the program. December 8, 1933 — It Was All So Sudden, the classical Class play came off with a bang. With part of me startling the audience in the costume of the gay—oh so gay—'90s and having a rising head measure at the admiring wisecracks and glances, while another part dramatically acting on the stage and having a large head at the many compliments, I'll have to buy a new hat. December 15, 1933 — Selected the Memoirs staff — editor and all. The Picture Idea and will it be duckie! Such talent, my deah, you have no idea. January 26, 1934 — Well, my ode to duty is almost finished. Quite a fine class if you ask me, or didn't you? A class of 203 members, of which 114 stuck to the glorious end and 89 were added along the way— 12 of which came from schools other than those of Portland. 38 boys went out for sports, and 36 letters were earned. 37 participated in the glee club. 9 earned scholarship pins or pearls, and 114 are going on to college — the rest into the business or marriage, studying, loafing, etc. I have earned a name for myself with 16 club presidents, a splendid prexy, editors, and innumerable league, class, and school officers. Who could ask for more?

THE SENIORS' FAREWELL Why should we love the warm, red brick so that We feel so loath to go? The very thought Of parting from the place where we've been taught Is fear, a sense of terror to combat. We love to think ourselves like ships which sail To buffet storms on raging seas of life; To sail, majestic in unholy strife And end a battered hulk with mighty tale. But oh! dear Grant, we leave behind us now A part of life that you will ever hold. The years to come may bring a whitened brow, But we’ll return with deep joy manifold. Thus we relinquish old and face the new; Each sorrowing, fearful at each curfew.

Betty Henkle has shown the country that she is a strong contender for a place on the women’s diving team to enter the next Olympic season. She got her start by entering park competitions from 1928 to 1930. Since then she has shown admirable ability in the Pacific Northwest Meet, as well as in the State Indoor, State Outdoor, and City Meets. This year on May 27 she took part in the Junior National Diving Meet at San Francisco and walked off with second honors. On September 15, just after the opening of school, Betty took third place in the Far Western (International) Swimming Meet at Los Angeles. Diving from ten-foot and three-foot boards is Betty's specialty. TED ROHWER Living up to an excellent record, Ted Rohwer has fulfilled the Generals' expectations of their new football mentor for the past season. Upon entering Washington State College in 1925 Coach Rohwer proceeded to annex three Freshman letters, and by the time he had graduated in 1929 he had added nine varsity letters to his collection. Only one man in the history of Washington State College has surpassed him in athletic awards. Four years of coaching at Longview High School preceded Rohwer's acceptance of the position at Grant. There he trained four football squads, who, by winning twenty-nine games, losing ten, and tying two, scored a percentage of .743. His 1930 grid squad won the state championship with a record of eleven wins and no defeats. During the same time the basketball quintets won two and tied one of the Southwestern Washington championships. Unassuming, friendly, and efficient, Ted Rohwer is expected to develop teams that in time will top the league. Front Row—MacCleur, Huddleston, Whiteside, D. Gilbert, LaSalle, Lenau, Bryson, Dusenberry, B. Gilbert, McKenzie. Second Row—Rohwer,’ Bainton, Binford, Millard, McCauley, Stocks, Simonelli, Schweiger, Eagle, Wahoske, Eilertson.

SCHEDULE Pre-Season Grant 39 Rainier .... 0 Grant 27 Vancouver 0 Inter-Scholastic Grant 7 Jefferson 6 Grant 6 Commerce 7 Grant 7 Franklin 6 Grant 13 Roosevelt 0 Grant 0 Washington 14 Grant 14 Benson 0 Grant 13 Lincoln 0 Ted Rohwer and the coaching staff were greeted at the outset of the season by a most enthusiastic turnout including some fourteen lettermen from the previous year's squad and a host of promising candidates. After six weeks of hard, strenuous practice, during which time they won two easy pre-season victories, the team opened the regular season with a brilliant victory over last year's champions, Jefferson High, by a one-point margin. Unfortunately, in the next game they fell before the Stenogs, also by a one-point margin, but came back to defeat both Franklin and Roosevelt, only to lose on a muddy field to the championship Washington outfit. In spite of this setback the fighting Generals finished the season strongly by decisive wins over Benson and Lincoln. It is interesting to note that, had Grant defeated Washington, we would now be champions of the prep league. Grant was handicapped much of the season by loss of their 1932 all-star fullback, Bob Gilbert, due to injuries. Letters were awarded to Bill Gleason, Bob Gilbert, Bill Bainton, Al Bryson, Jack Eagle, George Grebe, Malcolm MacCluer, Emerson McKenzie, Bob McCalley, Ross Phillippi, Dale Lasselle, Jimmy Leneau, James Wahoske, Jack Huddleston, Jack White-side, Ed Strohecker, Don Gilbert, Gene Fox, and Ormond Binford. The managerial duties were handled by Tuomy, Tatum, and Cliffton. Two team members, Ross Phillippi, Senior, and Bill Gleason, fifth termer, received recognition on the all-star teams for their 1933 season. A detailed game by game account follows. PRE-SEASON Grant started their pre-season games with decisive victories over two tough teams. In their first game the fighting Generals rolled up a score of Grant 39 and Rainier 0. Their next game was a victory over the Vancouver boys when the game ended with a score of Grant 27 and Vancouver 0. INTER-SCHOLASTIC Grant 7 Jefferson 6 Grant started the season's inter-scholastic football games with a victory over the undefeated Jefferson champs. In the early part of the first quarter Grant’s team pushed the ball down to the Jefferson eighteen-yard line, only to be held for no gain, in the beginning of the fourth quarter Jefferson recovered a Grant fumble, placing them in a scoring position. Ben Ell carried the ball over the line to score, but the kick was fumbled. Late in the fourth quarter a Jefferson kick was blocked, and Phillippi fell on the ball behind the Jefferson goal line. Strohecker converted with a well-directed kick. The game ended with the score of Grant 7 and Jefferson 6. Grant 6 Commerce 7 In the first five minutes of play in Grant's second game the Commerce eleven pushed the ball over for a touchdown, and Vanelli's kick sailed evenly between the goal posts. In the second quarter Jack Eagle recovered his own blocked punt on the Grant three-yard line and in the next play kicked out of danger. The team opened a way for Lasselle's score in the fourth quarter, but Strohecker's kick was not made good. From then on, the Grant team fought for additional points, but the final gun sounded before they succeeded. The game ended leaving a score of Grant 6 and Commerce 7. Grant 7 Franklin 6 In their third game Grant came through with another victory over Franklin. In the first quarter Bryson blocked Mitchelson's punt on the Franklin twenty-eight yard line, and the Grant men proceeded to march toward a touchdown. Gleason's pass to Lasselle put the ball on the Franklin ten-yard stripe. The quarter ended with the ball on about the one-foot line. Bob Gilbert carried the ball over for a touchdown in the second quarter. To make the score 7—0 in favor of Grant, Ed Strohecker converted. The game was nip and tuck until Franklin recovered a Grant fumble in the third quarter and scored but failed to convert. Grant 13 Roosevelt 0 Grant won a decisive victory in their Roosevelt game with a score of Grant 13 and Roosevelt 0. In the second half Grant started a drive that ended in the first score of the game. During this drive, Phillippi passed to Lasselle, who carried the ball from the Roosevelt thirty-yard line to their ten-yard line, and Gleason carried the ball over the line to score. The try to convert failed. The Generals scored again in the fourth quarter by making another drive into enemy territory, enabling Lasselle to carry the ball over for six more points. Strohecker converted, making the score Grant 13 and Roosevelt 0. Grant 0 Washington 14 The Grant-Washington game started with each team testing the other's strength. Both sides kicked on the second or third down. Washington, recovering a Grant fumble on the Grant thirty-five-yard line, moved it down to the twelve-yard line, but there they were held against a gain. Collins finally got away in the third quarter and carried the ball over the line for a touchdown. The kick for point was good. In the fourth quarter Grant, after recovering a Washington fumble on the Generals' three-yard line, kicked out of danger, but after a series of plays, Collins again scored. The game ended with a score of Washington 14 and Grant 0. Grant 14 Benson 0 Grant chalked up another decisive victory with a score of Grant 14 and Benson 0. The Grant team moved deep into enemy territory, and Lasselle threw a pass to Gleason, who stepped over the goal line to score. Don Gilbert converted. From then through the third quarter the game was without any score by either side. In the fourth quarter Grant started another drive into scoring territory when Lasselle, who intended to pass but found no unguarded receiver, sprinted thirty yards to a touchdown. Don Gilbert again made the extra point with a kick. Grant 13 Lincoln 0 The Grant Generals wound up their football season with a victory over Lincoln. In the first quarter the Generals were continually deep in Lincoln territory but failed to score. In the second quarter Grant started one of its characteristic drives that ended in the first touchdown. Bob Gilbert carried the ball over the last few yards to score, but Don Gilbert failed to convert. In the fourth quarter another campaign was launched. From the twenty-yard line Bob Gilbert and Ormond Binford carried the ball over in a series of line bucks to score. Don Gilbert kicked the extra point. The game ended with a score of Grant 13 and Lincoln 0. GENERAL'S VICTORY SONG For dear old U. S. Grant we'll fight again. That honored name we're striving to defend; Our boys will hit that line with all their might, And for the blue and gray we'll fight, fight, fight, So come now, never let that true Grant spirit die. We're going to win this ball game if we try. Now, Generals, roll that score up to the sky. Rah! Rah! Rah!
