EYCXEXSYXTLRXSWSXSX Q5 RQVIQVV LX? TQ W3SET3 FOOTBALL BANQUET The king is dead, long live the king! This was the spirit of our annual foot- ball banquet. The team of 192.9 has gone into the realm of memory, giving way to a group of vigor- ous, plucky fellows who will make up Harvard's gridiron warriors of 1930. Success to them! The banquet took place at the Palmer House on December sixth. After a most splendid repast the epicures took up the pop- ular UQ art of after din- ner speaking. The team was roundly praised and everyone drank a mental toast to the good-fellow- ship of Coach Hanson. C a p t a i n Rosenberg and manager Hartman acted as chairmen and called upon various individuals to say a few words. Mr. Rich, speaking on behalf of the many fathers p r e s e n t, complimented the line spirit of the boys. Mr. Hanson thanked the team for its splendid cooperation and Mr. Pence stated that he was proud of the fact that Harvard teams always play on the square. After the last speech, nominations were made for next year's captain and manager. By unanimous vote, M a r s h Rich was elected pilot, with Max Friedman manager. A word of appreciation was given by the captain elect to climax the evening, after which the banquet broke up, leaving all in a jubilant mood. BASKETBALL BANQUET The banquet which con- cluded the basketball sea- son at Harvard was held April 17th at the Winder- mere Hotel. The guest of honor of the evening was Mr, Moore, dean and head football coach at Lindblom High School. After a deli- cious meal Captain Nahser, master of ceremonies, in- troduced the speakers of the evening, whose speeches proved b o t h interesting and amusing, Mr. Moore's being the outstanding one. The keynote of his speech was football at Lind- blom. However, as an extra feature, he delighted his audience by telling of the time Mr. Pence beat him at golf. Qscore up an- other one for the good old Harvard spiritj . Mr. Pence. as the climax of the even- ing, awarded the letters. It is interesting to note that Henry Joseph, manager of the te.1m, was awarded. thru the unanimous vote of the H Club, .1 manager's sweater. Election of next year's basketball captain followed. the outcome be- ing the selection of co-cap- tains: David Levin and Alan Kline. Robert Samuels was unanimously elected manager. With the ringing words of appreciation from t h e co-captains e l e c t. everybody departed in ex- cellent spirits, the results of the thoroughly happy hour just spent.

It was given on December 21, 1929, in the gym. The Midnight Rounder's Or- chestra furnished the mu- sic. The punch and cookies were very tasty and there was plenty of both. The decorations were very pretty and they were clev- erly arranged. The efforts of the committee consist- ing of Jimmy Callahan, Tom Jordan, John Levin- son, and Joseph Zizook certainly put the dance over. An entertaining feature was the lucky number contest which was won by Tom Kelly and his part- ner. Several of the alumni dropped in early i-n the evening to see how things were going. Although the dance was informal, the girls were very beautifully dressed. Everybody pres- ent had a great time, which is the ultimate test of a successful prom. Page 104 THE AD CONTEST The annual Review Ad Contest this year had an added incentive in the form of a first prize of nfty-dol- lar value, a second of twenty-five, a third of ten, and a fourth, nfth and sixth each of five. It was an extremely hard fought contest. Much credit must be given for the business- like manner and the efli- ciency of the winners. All these boys worked ex- tremely hard during the entire length of the contest and most of them spent their Week-ends at busi- nessf, The winners were, with their approximate amounts: john Magnus, 5g6o.oo. Bud Daniels, i.3,67.5o. LeRoy Hoffman, S3I0.00. Philip Magnus, S53o5.oo. Powell Carson, t11o2.5o. Richard Kirchheimer, av:l,S.OO. Gordon Ellis, Sw35.oo. The cup awarded to the grade which had the most advertising each month was won by the seventh grade in an over-time period. Sixth grade tied them up to the last mo- ment, but petered out in the deciding moments. THE JUNIOR PROM The Junior Prom was again this year a festive occasion for the under classmen, but there was entered a touch of sorrow into the affair for the grads. It was no fault of the dance, however, if everyone didn't have a good time. M i s s Schobinger done herself noblei' with refreshments, and the or- chestra was chosen with the good taste that only an experienced b u n c h of hooters', like the juniors is capable of displaying. The junior committee-men who were mainly respon- sible for the success of the affair were G un d r u m, Kline, Reinhold and Rich. The pic k of Chicago's beautiful girls were there, escorted, of course, by the pick of Chicago's high school men Qafter all, why shouldn't we tell them?j The Junior Prom is al- ways, as a matter of tradi- tion, the high point of the school year and this one was no exception. Thanks loads, juniors, it'll give the Seniors a lot of pleasant memories. - g A
