ILLINOIS Circus EH it ion Published by The Senior Class of 1932 The Circus-Day Parade Oh. the Cirrus-Day parade! How the bugles played and played! And how the glossy horses tossed their flossy manes and neighed. As the rattle and the rhythm of the tenor-drummer's time Filled all the hungry hearts of us with melody sublime! How the grand hand-wagon shone with a splendor all its own. And glittered with a glory that our hearts had never known! And how the boys behind, high and low of every kind. Marched in uneonseious capture, with a rapture undefined. How the horsemen, two and two. with their plumes of white, and blue. And crimson, gold and purple, nodding by at me and you. Waved the banners that they bore, as the knights in days of yore. Till our glad eyes gleamed and glistened like the spangles that they wore How the graceless-graceful stride of the elephant was eyed. And the capers of the little horse that capered at his side! How the shambling camels, tame to the plaudits of their lame. With listless eyes came silent, masticating as they came. How the cages jolted past, with each wagon battened fast. And the mystery within it only hinted of at last From the little grated square in the rear, and nosing there The snout of some strange animal that sniffed the outer air! And, last of all. the clown, making mirth for all the town. With his lips curved ever upward and his eyebrows ever down. And his chief attention paid to the little horse that played tattoo on the dashboard with his heels in the parade. Yes, like the Circus-Day parade when the bugles played and played! And the glossv horses tossed their (lossy manes and neighed. So the rattle and the rhythm of Lou Lewis' big time Filled the Class of '32 with her melody sublime! (With apologies to James Whitcomb Kiley.t To Louise Lewis, with sincerest appreciation for the infallible help and kindness whirl die has displayed, and for the vision and background she has given us during the past four years, we dedicate this, our annual.

Slowly they come into view and spread themselves into a panorama cover- ing the past four years of this illustrious group. See. there arc the very first officers, Kammelkamp. Conover, and Johnson: and scenes from that never-to-be- forgotten “Too Many Cooks,” the only performance ever given hv a set of players during their first year in the circus. A little closer stands a second set of officers. God hey, Donahoe, and Sturdy; then scenes from the “Mystery Man and “Blind Dates,” these were also the first of such performances that had ever been produced by artists in their second year with the circus. The money from this helped to huy some new curtains for the tent. Nearer ami clearer the picture appears now with Donahoe. Cully, and Conover, and a swaying line of figures, the Grand March of the famous Prom, the first to he held outside of the tent and in a hig hotel. Elevated now to the statues of star performers, acknowledged leaders in the grand show, they stand with such able advisors as llaskel and Cully, four years of tumult passed, four years of winning over almost impossible odds, four years of learning to he good sports, four years under the guidance of the finest advisor any class could ever wish. Four years—and wasn't it worth it? The thrill that comes with victory, the knowledge of work well-done, an envied place in the annals of Circus history won because of a «logged struggle to leave behind every obstacle. It was worth it twice and thrice over—And now' we raise a hand in farewell. F tmrlven Ifffa faJk V INA ABBOTT Mmlesly i.i an art, not a virtue. Girl Club 4; Operetta 4.

Now lot us pause in I Ik recital of (lie glamorous arts, the famous acts, the widely advertised acts, the stars and clowns, and turn our attention to the others, those hrave yet uninspired persons who do the manual labor of the circus camp; in short, the canvas men. whose duty it is to put up the tents for the big show, feed the animals, clean out their cages. put up the apparatus for the great acts, and a hundred other hits of work. For instance, watch them as they fasten the ropes of the hi«1 net used in the aerial stunt. If some creature from the regions above were unfortunate enough to slip and fall from his high position to the lower levels, where would he he. save for tin unfailing net? And think of the canvas men's annual shiti-dig. Didn't they do nobly in spite of their much-talked-of depression? Here's to you servants of the great show : may your unheralded, unknown efforts he rewarded, ami may you. at some future time, he lifted to a higher place. Do not dispair, you don't look hopeless now. Though we may not show it, we appreciate your efforts, oh canvas men. and we hail Boss Ram ill, who has hv unknown means piloted you through the worst of the depression. In parting, the best we can do is to wish you a part of the fame and applause accorded to the Star Performers; May you someday reach their high levels. % Top Roiv: Leach, Hoks, Fortado, Mo?dey, Grauhner.

However, we must admit that for so young an act they are doing well. The orchestra which accompanies them in their art is good considering the amount of talent employed. The advisor of their act comes from a famous family, renowned for their double somersaults, and has been very successful in teaching her underlings the Art. The fortunes told hv the tumblers as a special concession, proved most amazing, and many of the faculty went home wondering at the perceptive powers of their understudies. So the little tumblers turn their faces to the future and contemplate with eager eyes great things that they implicitly believe to lie ahead; little do they realize the hitter struggle that lies before them. For. to gain the level of Star Performers what super-intelligence, what vitality, and what determination are needed; hut don't give up, tumblers, you've got your start.

A great hoot of laughter runs through the audience, and grows to a roar as the clowns approach. Haggv pants and ill-fitting coats are hanging to their midget-sized bodies. They appear with their hland innocent faces streaked with dirt and paint. Truly a most laughable spectacle! John Steinman seems to he the high polooka of the act. helped by Brockhouse, Osborne, and Kendall. On they come, with vacant stares, straight ahead. As they wobble ‘round the ring, they manage to get under foot every step of the way. Such perfect blank- ness has never been before displayed to a circus audience. Look how they turn their meek dumb countenances to stare at the Star Performers, so high, so very far above them. Will they ever reach the heights? We doubt it now, hut some- how the more audacious souls seem to spur their lowly companions on. and join tin brilliant company of Those Who Count. W ell. Clowns. Here's to you! Let’s see what you can do! W e're waiting and watching, clowns, because we know you have the stuff to make yourselves successful. Remember the path to the place of Star Per- formers is not one of primroses. You must rather tread the straight and narrow trail. And one thing more we say to you. oh lowly circus clowns, we hope the much talked of “Old Man Depression” will leave these fair halls and no more cast his shadow over the largest social event of the season. I hree years are stretching before you, clowns; three years to make of yourselves what you will. It all depends on you so let’s see what you can do. . CDc- o a« -c.

Believe it or not there's really been more order under the big top than you II find anywhere else. Boyd Haskell, circus boas, with his excellent staff consisting of Boh Sibert. Dorothy Deane Baldwin, and Jeanette Lacey have handled problems that might baffle the most hard-boiled cops. By means of “gentle persuasion these guardians of the Show People's Welfare Home admirably succeeded in bringing order out of chaos. No more shall the circus inspectors laugh up their sleeves at the noise and order prevailing in various mess halls : no more need the hox-officc entrances he patrolled to keep the actors in: no more is ones very life endangered by flying missiles dropped accidentally or on purpose, by the workmen, nor is one to be drenched by the drinking fountain nor irritated by itching powders. In short, all our secret gripes have been removed, thanks no doubt, to the never-ending efforts of Czar Sheppard and his corps of officers.

Besides advertising, these handbills give personal news notes about the actors, manv clever jokes, accounts ot the happenings of the past week, and sometimes the famous erts” column comes out with a truly commendable poem.

Among their specialties were several worthy of notice, namely: “Benefit Bridge at Mrs. Harrison Kings: ”A Capella Group, oi twenty-five voices, and “Oh Doctor.’ a charming operetta which was the hit of the season. At the State’s Convention in Champaign, Margaret Elliott, Dorothy Conover. j Helen Russel, Jeanette Lacey, Helen Conlee, Eleanor Pearson. Edith Klliott and Emilene Harher scouted the material of acts similar to their own. Helen Russel and Jeanette Lacey were chosen as delegates to the National Convention.

The camel, we hear, is a mighty queer hcastie. He doesn't need food nor drink. Perhaps, it is whispered, he lives on his rep—what do you think? It’s rumored that once, in the days long ago, the camels and lions fell out. Be that as it may, 'twas a far away day, they forgot what the trouble’s about. So the show rolls along with a laugh and a whoop and the camels grab all of the lions' soup. Now there’s loo much to do for the humps to pursue a story as old as the hills; the lions agree and the public can see the tw ,-ht it out on the hills. e repeat—they forget what the trouble's about; the forensic never came oil. which most likely avoided a riot. For some queer reason the camels and lions have worked neck and neck this year. They haven't pulled each other's tails or mafic each other sit on nails.

This justly famous act, feeling the results of the depression, turned their talents to the grocery business ami managed to sell enough gelatine to see them through the year.

Say, girls like them are mighty hard to find. They’ve just returned from a trip abroad, special airships employed for the service. They’ll tell you of strange countries and birds, and funny houses, and Austrian Dukes—maybe. They're good girls and generous too. They gave money to the debate teams when they were starving. They have parties too. lots of ’em. at Christmas and at the end of the year. Oh. you’ll like these girls ever so much.

The camels are coming, but so are the cooks. We ask you, ”W hicli gets the rush? The mess hall is crowded; the chairs are scrapin', and the plates are being scraped. Napkins tucked in our necks, we sit pounding our glasses and bellowing, “Food. First come first served, or the rube who yells the loudest (that is before the feed). Mountains of grub are carried in for the waiting bums to demolish—and with eighty members, the mountain soon turns into a mole-hill. See Marys, Patterson and Frye, chief cooks, with high white caps upon their domes. Neat budgets are kept by Lillian Cox, with kind assistance by Misses Larimore, Carter and Osborne. W ho could cook a better mess or wash so many dishes? And who could stand to cut the onions and scale the little fishes? Such marvelous chefs we never knew. We know your secret though, in oldest legends it is told and passed from ear to ear. (Don’t tell a soul we told you this, we guard it with our lives.)

Now the night performance is on, and what a transformation from the ordinary afternoon showings. Everywhere the tents glow with cleverly devised lighting fixtures, thought up by the electricians and radio men of the circus. Unusual effects are gained by the ingenious use of the lights: the main tent is brilliantly illuminated for the performers to go through their stunts, while the sideshows are a conglomeration of scientific exhibits, due to this wonderful organization. Chief electrician, Cletis Graves, assisted by Gilbert DeRyke and an able staff are supervised by the well-known John Agger. Other members of the organization are: Rex Jackson, Edna Williams, Charles Ledferd, Oma Johnson. Frances Lacy, Dorothy Nunes, Eldred Robert- son, Truman Reynolds, Maurine Roodhouse. Boyd Haskell. Dorothy Deane Baldwin. Dale Godbey. Phyllis Patchen, Hyla French, and Juanita Meyers. A large staff is needed to complete all the jobs connected in lighting the Big Top. The various acts perform with eloek-like regularity owing to this almost perfect electrical system provided for their especial benefit. li A r« « Ram: Wuod . Thompson, J.JotiBMn. Cully, Frye.

She listened to talks and attended the meetings; she cussed and discussed all the programs; she rushed the new members; she planned special nights, took the town by its ears and demanded her rights. She held banquets and banquets ami date ami stunt nights. She worked with Hi-Y and helped to uplift ’em. She worked with feverish zeal, assisted by Conover. Baldwin. Patchen, and Kitner. She turned out the goods by the reel. She reformed the circus, its tents, and its rings; she insisted on very much better things. She cleaned up the kitchens, the parks, and the schools; she let her skirts down and minded the rules. She washed the teacups and mopped up the floors am! wore both her rubbers when she went outdoors. Oh, what a girl was Minnie the Mooeher! Not one of your sideshow Mootchie-kootchers! How die! Howdie! (dear the trail for Minnie, the best frail in the town! “Oh, never,” quoth Minnie, with a deep black frown, “will I give up my place as the nicest girl in town: 1 don't like men; I really don't think they should he here.

Wouldn’t hurt to try though, because the prizes are shares in our great, unique, and extra- ordinary feed-grinding apparatus. Truly a commendable invention, ladies and gentlemen. Isn't it worth one good Soo-ie”? You can also see the beautiful cup won by Clyde Patterson at the corn contest, and there is a rumor that such curiosities as Elmo Tipps. John Baptist. Little Billy Barber, and Eugene Greenleaf will be on exhibit, and possibly the famous J. H. Loomis. Oh. Ladies and Gents, such a chance simply can not he passed up. I)o step inside, I beg you, if just to judge the poultry and the grain, and do try your powers on the hog-calling contest. And now Ladies and Gents, 1 take great pleasure4 in presenting Marlin Coker, who won the first prize in the last contest.

Starr Mechanical Engineering (Hub !! After the night performance is over, the circus people begin packing their costumes ami getting ready to leave on the special circus trains. I he hig tents are swiftly taken down and loaded by the canvas men. the animal cages are hoisted aboard, and the circus lot clears as if by magic. After a while everybody is ready for the journey. Guided by chief engineer. John McBride, the train pulls slowly out from the station, carrying with it the characters that frequent the hig shows. Lorenzo Zimmerman, Warren Con Ison. Paul Chuntley. and Mr. May are also employed in the engine-room to see that nothing goes wrong or endangers the lives of the sleeping show people. On and on. through the night, roars the circus train, carrying the un- conscious cargo, guided by these master engineers. W ho among the performers could feel a moment's fear? Come tin dawn and the train will have rolled safely into the next town, in time to unload for the day’s activities. Such is the life of those who serve under the Big Top; ever changeable, ever bright, ever interesting, and ever guided by the engineers. Fifty-three 11 ft A Now flu audience is settled ami the hand is marching in. Around flu three hig rings they go, drums heating and trumpets blaring. W hat could he more thrilling than a cirrus hand? And who could attract more ladies than director VonBodegraven? Thirty-five members, in resplendent uniforms, strut their stuff as the hand moves on. Behind them comes the Junior Band, with seventy- five members, and behind them the calliope wheezes its music into the air. And now the hand approaches for the second time, uniforms of white and red and silver instruments flashing in the sunshine. Band music!! It makes you feel like a kid again and arouses that desire to try your luck at sneaking under the canvas or carrying water to the Jumbo. Anything to get inside the hig top! The hand blares forth above the shouts of peanut vendors and pop men. Hurray for the Circus Band! hat would any circus he without it? It ushers in all the star performers and creates an atmosphere for the marvelous mystery stunt; the hand gives thrill and spice to the program. As a very special favor to an appreciative audience, the Band consented to give a concert specialty with the act of the Junior Band. We are proud of our hand—the best in the Circus World!

Right up above your heads where the strongest lights are focused, see the little group of figures standing on the highest platform? So very far above the ground! Those, those, my friends, are the fatuous high-divers, those death-defying individuals who will thrill your hearts with their unbelievable leaps into the miniature pool you see before you. Look how their spangled costumes glitter in the blaze of the electric lights: how steady are their feet; see how calmly their cool gazes rest on the little puddle into which they must soon launch themselves. Such nerve, such courage, such strenuous training as was needed to bring them to such perfection! Watch closely as their small slim bodies sail through the air and strike the water straight as an arrow'. atch them, my friends, they have soared far above our common ken: they have raised themselves to higher levels than would seem possible for mere circus performers; they have achieved the highest pinnacle of success- now watch them do the greatest dive in history!

The annual freak show, the Senior minstrel, rated even higher than in former years, surpassing even the world-famous B a mil in and Bailey. A chorus of full-blooded Bamboolas. imported straight from darkest Africa, performed such contortions and bellowed such music as might be heard during a moonlight ride up the Congo. Especially interesting were the specialties presented bv eight end men. hired by the management at unbelievable cost to desert their night clubs of the Gold Coast and entertain the folks from tin tall weeds of the middle west. As the show swept smoothly to the climax, such celebrities as Alvin Middendorf. Margaret Elliott. Kay Ward, Ned Donahoe. and others put over their acts in a whirl of dances. There was music and wise- cracks that brought the crowd to its feet. (But they didn't walk out.) When the greatest show in history drew to a close the audience, one and all. rose to shout again and again for the cast to re-appear. How P. T.

Topping u brilliant career, the Star Performers come forth a last time to «uve the crowds more than their money’s worth at the brilliant, sensational premiere of the smacking success, Out of the Night. Such talent as is assembled to produce this final performance of the titled stars of the great show has never been seen before under a circus tent! Eldred Robertson and Charles Scott carry the male leads, with Phyllis Patched and Margaret Klliott. who need no introduction, playing opposite. John Hunch interprets the hard-boiled cop. The rest of the cast includes such notable celebrities as: Hob Sturdy, Fred Fugleman, Charles llackett. Jane Robertson, and Linus UpDeGraff. Truly a breath-taking finale to four years of breath-taking achievement! ‘•Out of the Night come side-splitting comedy and the suspense of a great and unsolved mystery. Bootleggers and a stolen fortune; cross-word puzzles and a Hindu servant unite to catch even the most hard-boiled of circus audiences in those minutes of chilling excitement. Here's to you Star Performers! For once the show can’t go on—you stopped it! fifty •trim minter. McClelland. Taylor, Donalme. I'p|)e( raff. Mi « Brown. Smith. Spear . Sperry Dramatic (Hub Play !! The brilliant lights are dimmed, and a wierd green light suffuses the main ring as the mystery art commences. Piercing shrieks, dead men. a stolen ruby, supernatural hypnotism, oriental knives, secret panels, and the sinister Jade ( od unite to make this one of the most creepy and blood-curdling of its kind ever to be witnessed. Peddler Donahoe slinks into the limelight and discloses the secrets of the East, from his knapsack; the eccentric Perkins, played by Lenore Sperry, alias Garbo, centers the attention of the audience on herself throughout the whole act. Jack Derrick, brought to life by David McClelland, and Jean Millicent. interpreted hv Dorothy Conover, and Sissy Taylor, as Edith Derrick, help to carry the act to a thrilling and exciting climax. Lending their efforts to help the cast are: Linus ( pDeGraff. Herbie Smith, and Boyd Haskell. And now the lights grow brighter Blunt is dead.

These loud-mouthed gentlemen, and occasionally a lady, argue in a most convincing manner. In fact, they argue so well, indeed, that few, if any, can resist their powers of persuasion. During the past four years the J.H.S. circus has been noted for the unsurpassed eloquence of its barkers. These worthy men of the Big Top seem to divide automatically into two groups, those who argue for. and those who argue against. Let us consider the first group: W illiam Morgan, the dwarf of the show, speaks first, followed by DeVere Brockhouse, who’s much better off with three,” and “cherub” DeRyke. Comprising the second group are Marlin Coker. Ruth Ledferd. who w ill make the world safe for democracy, and W alter Bellatti, our own esteemed business manager. We of the circus are proud to acknowledge the powers of our barkers and extend them our best wishes. Fifty-nine .V (Christmas Pageant!! in .in obscure sideshow tent may be seen ;i most excellent rendering of one of the old Miracle Plays, The Nativity. Mary Mina Thompson and Kenneth Chenoweth play the leads with the angelic assistance of Margaret Catherine Lukeman, Marjorie Blackburn, Kay Ward, Sissy Taylor, and Emilene Harbcr. Paul Cooper, John Bunch, and DeVere Blockhouse, the three wise men, accom- panied by the shepherds, David McClelland, Bob Leach, Cedric Mather, (diaries Scott, and Linus LpDeGraff, and the women, Dorothy Conover, Betty Marsh, and Katherine Wiswell add much interest to the play. The Sock and Buskin Players united with the three musical acts to make possible this stupendous reproduction ol a great play. Everything went as well as possible, and everyone was pleased with bis part, except for the slight incongruity of Marg Lukeman in the role of an angel—her halo was a little wobbly. Harmonica Cooper appeared to miss bis instrument slightly, but bore up like a man. ()perctta t ? Once a year these musical acts unite for a pleasure tour of the sunny South; this year they chose genial old Doctor Drinkwater's Texas sanitarium as a stop- ping place for their jaunt. There, revelling in the tropical sunshine and an abundance of spring water, they helped to keep intact the fortune ol Glory Drinkwater. the granddaughter of Doctor Drinkwater. and to revive the spirits of the patients at the sanitarium. Isn't that just like these unselfish, happy-go-lucky circus folks to take an interest in the affairs of those who need it? Aren’t Kenneth Chenoweth, our well-known parlor philosopher. Edith Elliott, Thvra Smith. Eldred Robertson, Charles Scott. Melvin Shadid, Helen Russel, Margaret Catherine Lukeman, Helen Ator. Margaret Elliott, Herbie Smith. Phyllis Patchen, John Bunch. Paul Cooper. Glenn Helliwell. DeVere Brockhouse, and the rest of the artists com- posing this musical act to be highly congratulated? Yes, indeed, but no less than Miss Lena Mae Hopper. She it was who personally conducted the tour and made possible all the many good times that the group enjoyed during their stay at Doctor Drinkwater's pleasant sanitarium. M' iu 4f it Jk Sixty Prom !! The annual honky-tonk. given by our before-mentioned canvas men, centered around the popular figure of their much-flaunted “Old Man Depres- sion.” How the old man enjoyed himself! Gaily the old man jigged around to the tune of the calliope, drank pink lemonade between dances, and played with the pretty decorations. How he chuckled with glee as the crowds of beautifully dressed performers gathered to do him honor. How he chucked himself full at the feast provided to tempt the appetites of the Chosen Few, in other words, the Star Performers. How he laughed and enjoyed his short-lived popularity, then, how curled up in his hunk that night, he lamented his short-lived happiness. For «Ion t all good things end too soon? So it was with the canvas men's attempt at high-class entertainment—one might say that the old man considered tin- party over before it began. Nevertheless the Star Performers feel that they should express their appreciation for such a party as has never been before ami probably never again will be. Junior Play !! Howls of laughter greet the production of the canvas men; their worthy members once a year turn their hands to producing a comedy sketch, directed and acted by the members of their brotherhood. This year the “Charm School was chosen to further amuse the circus crowds, the canvas men themselves having proceeded admirably along this line all year. Such infamous characters as Herbie Smith, Lewis Girdler, Bob Leach. Wadsworth Applebee, Jack James, and Janies F'rve manage to entertain the girls of hoarding school age, including, Eineline Harber. Katherine W iswell, Mary Mina Thompson. Marjorie Blackburn, Ruth Walton, and Elizabeth King. Our old friends. Betty Marsh, of September Morn fame, and Lucy Sparks, carry their parts admirably. Altogether the play manages to be as entertaining as could be expected of an amateur group. V e hail you, canvas men. oh. lowly workers of the circus lot; may your efforts never be in vain, and may you aspire to such a position as one of the cast ol Out of the Night. Keep trying; you are sure to come through! Sixl y-one A (iOmmeiicenient !! Al last it arrives! That long-awaited. long-heralded, final, great, grand, and glorious day. What a flurry of exritement runs through the circus camp! How the under-aciors slick their hair and shine their shoes! How the hands play ami the people cheer! For isn't it Pay Day? Hasn't that half-dreaded time arrived when the Star Performers receive their last salary checks? Four years of distinguished service under the Big Top deserves its reward. The time has come when these distinguishd members of tin circus feel that there are no more worlds to conquer under the Big Top; they had best proceed to higher realms. It is hut short-lived sadness that the Star Performers feel as they turn their hacks upon the familiar tents and mess halls of tin J.H.S. circus. They have reached the highest place possible for circus performers, and now are turning their eyes expectantly upon the future. To ring-master Lewis they give fond farewells; her forceful personality has championed them through their four most difficult years, and it is with hearts full of thanks that they fall into line and file past the window for their last pay check.

Over in the corner the Beardstown Bears were growling for fresh victory. The little Jackal just wagged his whisker— he knew the odds stood 14 to 6 on him and meant to make them good. The horse act from Virginia, tied in a vacant space in the center-—well they carried 6 to 0 odds and probably would win. Winchester Hyenas coved in another corner. The little Jackal mused, he'd like to take 'em, hut 14 to 6 were awfully big odds, and Carrollton's Cows at 14 to 6 looked formidable too. But time enough to take them another year. The Auburn sses tethered near the horses were a tough outfit, and 14 to 0 didn't look so good. W averlv was next; their Tigers held the odds at 12 to 0. The Louisiana Lions were easy, when the odds stood 13 to 6 for the little Jackal. The little Jackal pricked up his ears; for here came Trainer Walker, who had turned four years defeat into some victories? Truly a stalwart man, the little Jackal figured as he flattened hack his ears and lay down to plan his future triumphs.

Readers, think back: during the football season we left the little Jackal dozing in bis cage and contemplating bis future activities; now, during the basketball season we find a wide-awake, snapping little animal—out for blood. Especially noticeable during the year have been the flashing attacks of Donahoe, Goodey, and Holt, who were unfortunately forced to retire in t Iks middle of the season. Ketner anil Sibert are also to be complimented on their excellent work. Everywhere the driving force of Trainer W alker is in evidence, and it looks as though the once dormant interest of the Rig Top members has at last come back to life. After a strenuous season the little Jackal lies down and contemplates the future through bis green slits of eyes. Does be see more successful years ahead? ()ne wonders, is, Yes.'' J. . S. J. H.

Over near the entrance of one of the sideshows, occupying the place of honor, stands a booth depicting the ancient Greek Olympics. Unusually good demonstrations of the javelin and discus throws, high jump, broad jump, pole vault, hurdle races, and various ‘ dashes are to he seen. This group, consisting of such well-known athletes as Brennan, Gillespie, Yasconcellos, Baptist, Wi liner, Cook, York. Morgan, and the well-known Ivan Skavinski Skavar Fitzsimmons are much in evidence as they go through their various performances in tin professional manner for which they are famous.

They have taken part in the “Big Twelve” meet where the picked players from every line of athletics convene to test their relative abilities. atch them as they serve, then wait expectantly for the return hall; a smashing whack and the little white hall goes soaring over the net out of the opponent's reach. None other than our own Chenoweth, famous for his love sets, heads the team.
