Behind me lie those sunny, sheltered years Wherein I worked and played in joy abandon, When my untutored feet, wand ring at random Were guided with wise care, the smoothest way. Behind I leave it all, far. far behind, The careless raptures, the unbounded dreams— But oh. that shining door! Slightly it quivers, Slowly swings outward on mute hinges. It flashes in the sun, my eyes are dazzled By a flood of light. One look behind—no more For the door is opening—ah, inscrutable Fates, Upon what ? 48 E, the members of the June '24 Class, being in our right minds, which are not so good, and possessing good judgment, to the best of our knowledge, do hereby draw up this last will and testament: First: To Mr. Jenkins, we leave our sincere appreciation of his unfailing help in putting us through Jefferson. Second: To Miss Holman and Mr. Bosserman, we give our best thanks for their help in making our class one of Jefferson’s best. (Permissible conceit.) Third: To our advisers.

They all forget one monstrous thing. They write about its many flowers And picking them in sunny hours, In sylvan dells and woodland bowers On mossy banks, ’neath ivy towers. They write about its songbirds gay That in the woods sang many a lay As if for sunshine bright to pay With carols sweet that cheer the day. But when they start to write this rhyme, They all forget Old Father Time; The flowers and birds bring work and grime, For it is now house cleaning time. 52 June, ’24 F was a warm spring afternoon as I lazily strolled clown the avenue, I noticed a sign, “Madam Chatten, Phsychic Reader,” in the window of a large, old-fashioned dwelling. Having left my home town soon after graduating from high school, and having just returned after an absence of ten years, I was lonely and wanted to know about the girls and boys who had graduated in my class from Jeffer- son. 1 climbed the stairs and hesitatingly rapped on the door. In a few moments who should open the door but a woman in an Oriental costume. To my surprise it was Myrn Varney. She ushered me into a large, high ceilinged room in the center of which sat a woman gazing into a large crystal sphere. She motioned me to a seat opposite her, and en- tering somewhat into the spirit of the situation, I was not surprised to see that it was Priscilla Chatten.

For one thing, Duke and I would have been in an entirely different mood, and for another. Prof. Wells would not have— but after all. you never can tell. We bad been over to Rome City to a show, and it was pretty late when we finally started back to Stroll. Before we were a mile out, it commenced to rain. As we went on, the deluge increased. Now and then flashes of lightening lit up the road and we could see trees swaying in the wind. We rather enjoyed it. Duke's folks were away, and as ! was staying all night with him, the question of getting m early didn’t enter into the equation. I’ve read of the mutual understanding and perfect comradeship sometimes found between partners who have braved death together. I doubt if any blazing log fire—since the coming of man symbolical of convival companiship—ever invoked a more complete feeling of sodality than the one we inexperienced as we contentedly ploughed our way through the mud and oelting rain that night. We couldn’t have made each other hear above the roar of the storm, even if we had felt the need of talking. Duke kept the heavy car from swerving into the bordering ditches, and was busy swabbing the windshield and inveigling into submission the flapping side- curtains. Duke suddently jammed on the brakes, and we skidded to a vibrating stop. Into the flood of our lights there lurched a small sedan, empty, save for a muffled figure in the driver’s seat. A solitary headlight emitted a feeble glow. The car jounced across our road and continued down the one at right angles with us. “Who do you suppose would be out at this time on a night like this? Duke shouted in my car. I yelled back my 63 The Spectrum June, 1924 inability to guess, and we decided to follow, taking the longer route home. As we swung onto the other road, Duke switched off the lights, and into the impenetrable darkness we pursued the car. A delicious sense of mystery and adventure come over me, and I strained forward to follow the phantom gleam, sinking and rising as the car progressed down the uneven road. I could feel Duke’s muscles grow tense. Our habitual craving for adventure, accentuated by the play we had seen, the wild night, and the knowledge that for once we should not he held accountable for our lateness in returning, combined to aid us in ridding ourselves of the realization that the mantled form was undoubtedly that of a belated farmer. The sickly flare of the lone light ahead enshrouded the almost impassable road in a ghastly pallor. The small machine swayed drunkenly from side to side on the storm- beaten country road, and the wind and rain threatened with every gust to overturn it. Above the shrieking of the angry storm gods, we thought we heard the brakes rasp, and the car came to a grinding stop. The road branched into four directions. I'lie heavily cloaked figure stumbled out of the driver’s seat, and seemed to he almost swept away by the blasts of the gale. After what appeared to he a vain endeavor to read a sign-hoard in the intermittent flashes of awful lightening, he fought his way hack into the machine and hacked around so that the dim rays of the headlight might rest upon the sign—indubitably in the hope that it was a guide post. The yellow flickering disclosed a gruesome caricature of a horse, streched out on its hack, its four legs stiffened above it. P� elow was the name of a reduction company which bought dead animals for fertilizer. The figure in the driver’s seat hastily hacked the light from the ghastly scene. The machine lurched down the blackest and most forbidding of the four roads. Then he was not a farmer or anyone acquainted with the country, else why had he searched for a guide post? The suspicions which a moment before we had surrepti- tiously felt were rather juvenile seemed well-grounded facts. In silence we grimly plunged into the blackness before us, this time in a direction diametrically opposite to our in- tended destination. Neither speaking, we lunged along the flooded corduory road. We had lost all track of time, and our one thought 61 June, 1924 The Spectrum was to keep in sight the ghost car which spasmodic light- ening vitalized. We passed only one farm house, bleak and desolate against the onslaught of the storm. A second time that night. Duke wrenched the machine to a careening stand-still. In the pallor of the sedan’s lone headlight, we discerned a barricade of blanks. The road was closed! The climax had come. After irresolute hesitation, the sedan backed around. We had no time to pull to one side of the road, Eefore we had grasped the sudden turn of events, the headlight played full upon us. In a flash. Duke snapped on our powerful spot-light. We stood face to face, both well-nigh invisible behind our streaming wind-shields, our stronger light dis- closing a man, one arm upraised to protect his eyes—and perhaps conceal his identity. Suddenly the man leaped from the sedan and was swallowed up by the engulfing darkness. Tt was probably minutes before we finally ventured out of the car. Astonished to the point of complete bewilder- ment and assailed by a natural fear of the unknown, we allowed precious moments to escape. When we did com- mence our search it was with a rather tremulous vacillation of purpose. Pile darkness yielded no culprit to our desultory efforts. We huddled together in the shelter of the commandeered car and debated the advisability of driving it home. All our instinctive love for spoils and passion to have a concrete and valued proof to display to admiring eves argued the affirmative. And our fear of the awful darkness and what it might contain, inherited from an ancestor who slept crouching before a fire, cried out at the thought of our being separated. Finallv the Neanderthal man was forced into the dim recesses of our consciousness, and we deter- mined to take the car. T climbed in, and groped for the switch-key. Evidently the former occupant had taken it with him. “Tf he has a roue, we can tow her home.” Duke yelled through cupped hands. Running back to our heavier car. he secured a flash light from a door pocket. I propped up the back cushion while he directed the circle of light into the tool chest. Tacked to one of the sides was a case of 65 The Spectrum June. ipJ-l the variety commonly used to contain the owner's license. 'I'lie enclosed paper bore the signature of R. S. Wells, pro- fessor of history at Stroll high school! Slowly we made our way back home, Duke in the lead, and I guiding the towed car. When we passed the lone farm-house, seeming more forbidding than before as our strange procession wended past, I thought I could detect a cloaked figure moving under the rocking oaks, and I shrank down into the darkness, wishing with all my soul that we were safe in bed. After what seemed interminable ends of eternity, we reached the old Haskins place, which Duke's father had bought the spring before. It was tenantless, and the black windows against the white stone back-ground appeared to wink sinisterly at a something pursuing us. Duke stopped, and once more his lights snapped off. I clutched his hand in relieved eagerness, and together we dared for the first time to look behind us. The enshrouded wall of awful blackness was unbroken. Vet above the soughing of the wind. I imagined 1 heard a monotonous, muffled thudding, thudding of a relentless pursuer. “We'll put it in the barn here for tonight Duke was saying. “Until we learn more about it. It probably is just as well not to let anyone in on this. We ll get the lay of the land tomorrow.” In darkness we towed the car to the doors of the de- serted barn, and pushed it in, mud-encrusted witness of the fantasy of the storm-swept night. As the grinning house, with its slyly winking eyes, receded into the sepulchral oblivion, I thought I heard again the monotonous, muffled thudding, thudding above the gibbering of the wailing wind. When I awoke the following morning, it was to find the sun high in the sky and Duke already dressing. With his first words, I recalled with a start the events of the night. “Let’s go out to the farm as soon as we cat, and look- over the car.” When we drew up in front of the old ivy-veiled house, T looked around me curiously. How guileless the friendly windows seemed in the light of day! We walked to the barn, and T swung open the double doors. The sedan was gone! 66 June, 1924 The Spectrum The niud, flecking our car to the very top, belied the possibility that the whole affair was the nightmare I was beginning to suspect it to he. As we neared town. Duke suggested that we confront Wells with the knowledge we had stumbled upon. I acquiesced, and we stopped in front of his boarding place. The night’s strain had left its tell-tale marks upon the man. Haggard, and obviously exhausted, he admitted us. Mis pretense at reserve fell shattered under Duke’s first equivocal question. It seemed as though he had almost wanted to confide in someone. ‘M thought towards the last that it was you,” he began, his face ashen pale, and his muscles twitching at times. For some reason, as his sunken eyes fixed themselves pathetically first on one of us and then the other. I could not bring myself to believe that he was guilty of the crime of which circumstantial premises silently accused him. ‘‘Perhaps you noticed in the city papers a short time ago, an account of another hank embezzlement? Well, it’s the same old story. My brother, one of the tellers, was charged with the theft. I know his innocence will manifest itself some day. Paul would sooner-------” lie seemed to shake off the languor coming over him. and make effort to pull himself together. “At all events,” he continued, “Paul got down here, and is working as a farm hand out in that God-forsaken country where We were last night, lie got word to me where he was, and I wrote him I would come at the first opportunity. Last night he was dressed and out on the road, expecting me. “I knew I was being followed, so I drove past the place. I didn’t know you weren’t officers—I didn’t think anyone would be out on a night like that unless he had to he! 1 couldn’t stop at the farm-house where Paul was, so I kept on. You know the rest. I decided it was better to sacrifice the car, if need be.than to risk Paul's apprehension.” Suddenly there swept over me the realization that I felt very uncomfortable. “Mr. Wells, we owe you about the most sincere apology we ever made,” I heard Duke say. “We had an idea we were doing some brilliant detective work, I guess. And now—when you were risking everything to help your brother—well, it makes a fellow feel-----” The weariness and despair gone from his face, Mr. Wells grasped Duke’s hand and mine. 67 The Spectrum June, 1924 “I guess there isn’t much use in trying to tell you what this means to Paul and me,” he said. “I’m having in- vestigations made in the city, and I think that in a short time I shall he able to establish Paul’s innocence. I want you to know that I appreciate your taking my word for this, and your giving Paul a chance to be cleared. It’s some- thing I—I—” Embarrassed, he broke off abruptly. ‘‘But your sedan!” I exclaimed, suddenly remembering the empty barn. “In the garage ’ he smilingly replied, with a gesture toward the side of the house. “I saw you cross the head- lights once last night when the cars were at the end of the road, and I decided you weren’t officers. 1 ran back to the farm-house where Paul was waiting. He saddled one of the horses, and T overtook you before you left the side road. I rode right behind you all the way in!” Wild Roses Marion Maciikn Where the grass is knee deep in an old pasture lot. And a stream’s slowly, lazily wending its way, ’Twas there that this spray of wild roses 1 got. And it led me a long road to lost yesterday. Where the sunbeams are brightest and warmest, and dance In the sparkle and flow of the stream’s deepest blue, These pink shells were mirrored, like childhood romance Shines back in the mirror of memory—clear, true. And the simple sweet grace of the velvety green Brings an echo of old songs, sung softly and low, And the gold in its heart, and the silvery sheen Are the cords that bind me to the long, long ago. 68 June, 1924 The Spectrum Peace at Any Price Walter Wilbur IKE William Makepeace Thackeray’s Vanity Fair,” this is a novel without a hero. Whether or not it is a novel would make a good debate; that is, it would from the negative’s side, for the speaker for the negative would only have to prove that a novel must have a plot. Since this has not, a novel. Furthermore, there is nothing novel about the subject matter, for I am sure it happens in the best regulated families. At least it happens in ours and in other well regulated families also, 1 am quite sure: in fact. I’m certain. The leading character of this chapter of everyday life is any boy between the ages of fifteen, or ten, or eight, or even younger than that, and twenty. Twenty is the maxi- mum age, for boys older than that do not go to high school and our leading character must be a student or the situations which will be cited would not occur: at least, some of them wouldn’t. The boy must be an American, also, for foreign boys are so industrious that they would not resent the treat- ment that is given them, and they would he too polite to speak of the incidents as I shall speak of them, for am the leading character of this story. I am not any particular I.” but any “I” that fits the aforementioned description, certainly not a hero. For the sake of clearness, I will sometimes call myself me, and in places where a name is necessary, I will be called Johnny Jones. The story itself shows the great respect of the American boy for his ciders and youngers, and the loving, restful home life of Americans in terms more beautiful and sweet than Chopin’s Funeral March” or Louie Austin’s Bleeding Hearted Blues.” The story opens on a bright Sunday afternoon as I, as I will call myself here (myself, I forgot to say. is another term for I, and at times still others may be used, but the meaning will he clear, at least part of the time), was riding to the heart of my fair city to see a matinee. I was peacefully reading the power company’s weekly publication of the value of the street railway system, and the number of cities in which municipally owned railways had failed, when a young truant escaped from his mother at the other end of the car, and climbed into the space beside me after stepping on mv shoe for a ladder. His mother immediately came after him, saying “Lilly ! Come here!” 69 it is not The Spectrum June, 1924 Billy paid no attention, but continued goo-gooing and tapping against the window pane until his mother put her hands on him, whereupon he yelled vehemenently, “No! I wanna stay here!” “You come with me, young man,” ordered Mama, but a hasty boo-hoo from Billy made her sit down beside him saying, “There, there, Billy. Here’s your candy stick.” At the first application of brakes, Billy was jostled against me, rubbing the stick of candy on my collar. “Why, Billy!” exclaimed Mama, “You sit right down now!—I’m so sorry—” Oh, that’s perfectly all right,” I answered. “Don’t mention it.” (This proves 1 am not a hero or I would have said what I thought.) With a benign look 011 my face I desisted from my periodical long enough to giggle at Billy’s quotation. ‘Johnny sat around looking dumb, wondering where all the pretty girls come from.” J was in no mood to giggle but I could tell Mama expected me to. When my street was finally called I got up, and a real smile lighted my face which Billy’s mama might have thought was fondness for the little cherub. May she never be informed to the contrary.

Papa?” “I’m hum,” said Papa. “What’s lie saying, papa? Is he going to die, papa?” “No!” said dad. “Say, Mary, why can’t you teach him to keep still?” “There they are again, daddy. Arc they real people? When do they sleep?” It was a real relief to see them go (as I said before, a foreigner would be too polite to say that) and the whisper- ing couple that followed was a blessing—in comparison, that is. The next scene is in my own home (my home, you must remember, may mean any home). I was trying vainly to read “Vanity Fair.” I had made fairly good progress so far, having managed to read one hundred and eight pages in seventeen days. At the same time my sister was trying to teach the prodigal son of a neighbor to say “Johnny Jones.” Trying to be brave and impressive I said, “Say, TO June, 1924 The Spectrum let that poor boy alone, Sis,” and to my oldest sister, who is married and talks about “her Freddy,” I said, “Quit trying to play that piano; I’m trying to read this book.” “Well, go up to your room and read—,” started Mother. “And freeze to death, I suppose,” I supplemented bitterly. “Well, get in bed then ’ answered my oldest sister. (Having once been a school-teacher, she is full of helpful advice.) Being afraid that someone would say “fix the fire,” I was too prudent to keep up this pleasant discourse, but merely settled down into my chair, and tried to concentrate on “Vanity Fair.” The next scene is of the same quiet, restful type that 1 have just described so tenderly except that the baby was goo-gooing to a jazz record, and Floss was telling mother something about Freddy’s mother said somthing about her son's wife’s relations being disgraceful on account of some Irish blood or some such important reason. “Fix the fire, Johnny,” interrupted that dear little brunette that I call “Sis” so affectionately. “Oh. I just got through fixing it,” I exclaimed dis- gustedly. “John Jones, cut out that tone of voice,” said Mother, “and fix the fire at once.” “Oh, all right,” I answered, appearing hurt but thinking that I was lucky to have put it off as long as T had. ;: i{: $ As 1 lay in bed and considered the evening, I could not help feeling optimistic for, in spite of the bother of keeping up a pleasant discourse during the evening. 1 read eight pages of Thackeray’s delightful masterpiece.

The smv was begin- ning to vanish over the tree tops. It was the time of day when life, to a hoy, is full of interest and romance and lie begins to want to wander through the forest by himself, seeking what may he found in the way of new sights and perhaps adventure. As the other men started back to the camp after a day of hard labor on the railroad track, I struck out in the opposite direction, going blindly through the woods. I per- ceived, as I walked between the trees, that some of the trees were quite large and sturdy, while others were small and dwarfed. Others were sprouting up around the roots of the trees, making their feeble effort for existence. Then I began to think how much like human life were these trees; how men of strong character and great ability seem to push their way up in the world, leaving behind them the weak and incompetent, and often making the weak ones more so as they increase in strength, as the trees of the forest do. At the same time it came to me that the younger trees resembled people as they progress from infancy to manhood, for in time, some of these trees will push their way up into the sunlight through the branches of the great trees and leave the weaker species to struggle for existence in the shade of the more successful ones. Soon I came to a very steep hill and put all of my atten- tion and energy into scaling it. The hill was not as long as it at first seemed, for I soon came upon a beautiful little glade, near the top, covered with emerald green grass and surrounded by giant trees, guardians of this object of beauty. At the upper edge of this opening, I decried a small stream of water tumbling down a long slope of rugged terraces. The terraces were covered with light green moss, mottled with gray and brown where the rocks and earth showed through. Over the rocks fell the miniature cataract, put- ting the iridescence of the falls and the white of the foam into the color scheme of the little jewel in the midst of that immense setting of dark green forest. Then I turned and looked upon the great sea of trees and white capped mountains, 'flic sun was just disappear- ing over the horizon, tinging the world with red. yellow, 73 The Spectrum June, 19? and orange light. As 1 gazed upon that great panorama, a feeling of the Great Presence came over me, and I knew then that there was a tie between man and nature. Often since, while looking upon the beautiful, gigantic works of the Great Mother, that same feeling has come over me and has made me feel supremely happy in the knowledge that I was part of this great creation and able to appreciate the greatness of God in his relation to nature. June, 1924 The Spectrum Dandelions John Peterson O appreciate Wordsworth truly one must come in direct contact with nature,” so said my English teacher and she was right. While on my hands and knees digging dandelions out of the lawn, 1 first began to appreciate Wordsworthian poetry. True, the meanest flower that grows does inspire thoughts too deep for tears. Saturday morning, I was awakened by the chirping of swallows under the eaves and 1 rose to find a cloudless sky, a bright sun, a golden, flashing fairy world of be- jewelled leave sand lawns and spider webs. Immediately, I began laying my plans for the day. Tennis seemed most inviting of all occupations, but there were difficulties. Mother always plans my Saturdays for me. Sometimes our plans coincide. When they don’t I have to make her change them; but not by argument, for that would be futile. It seems to be a point of principle with women never to yield an argument, even if they know they are wrong. No, it was up to me to make her familiar with my plan without letting her know that J was presenting one, and to make her think that my plan was originally hers. So at breakfast I began the siege, sending out a band of skirmishers. “Gee! Mother, this is a keen breakfast. You sure got the biscuit just right.” “Oh my no, this miserable oven wouldn’t work ! I nearly burned them up. What are you going to do today, John? Ah! she met my sealthy approach with a cavalry charge. “What to do? I said, “why, nothing in particular. ‘It’s a swell day. Guess I better get some exercise. I been study- ing pretty hard lately.” “Yes, you must. You’d better go play tennis awhile. “That’s what I was thinking. “I wish you’d dig the dandelions out of the lawn iirst, though. They look pretty bad.” “Why, sure!” I swallowed a whole biscuit to choke back an outburst of chagrin, anger, and disappointment. You cannot talk back to your mother. You always know she has your interest at heart, and so you cannot argue, scold, or complain as you can with an aunt or a big sister. 75 The Spectrum June, 1024 On the lawn 1 laid my plans for the new campaign. 1 would be Caesar. The lawn would be Gaul. The dandelions would be the fair-haired Gallic warriors. The back-porch would be Rome. This mock campaign did not last long, however. There was nothing about digging dandelions tediously, one by one, to suggest the brilliant charges of the Tenth Legion. The dew disappeared. The hot sun blistered my neck and ears. My knees grew sore and my hands raw. My discomfiture was increased by the realiza- tion that my task was too large for me to finish in time to play tennis. Then I realized the true significance of those lines from the “Ode 011 the Intimations of Immortality”— “To me the meanest flower that grows can give Thoughts that do often lie too deep for tears.” 7( June, 1924 The Spectrum Perhaps You Can Tell? Bruce Fenton OVE is a vision, a mutual understanding, a serious reality, a sudden tension, a dream, a hysterical story, a sobbing confession, a timid request, a natural result, an imagination, a cause uncon- querable. unattainable, unbelievable, unsympathe- tic, and unconfined, a chance causuality, and a sacred reaction. We see love flaunted to the skies, turned down, trampled on, and reverenced. In all phases of philosophy, love stands for the results of war and peace. That mysterious yet pellucid something is the foundation of a universal happiness and a united brotherhood. The parental love of the mother especially appeals to me for 1 am a sentimental body who believes in the biblical proverb, “obedience to thy parents first.” When a mere child of five, did I not scream as mother sent me to the washbowl to cleanse my none too learned ears? T can see why mother dear wished me to he nice and tidy. Willie Thomas was her standard for me. Yet what a wailing and lamenting when Sunday came and my youthful times were spoiled as the Sabbath stole up threatenly on me! I never could sec why Willie was admired so much by my mother. That sillv-nilly beau-brummel junior. “Willie is going to be all nice and clean, Sonny Boy,” cooed dear mother. What did T care about his pink, baby ways? I wanted to play with my Nigger dog. but withal my mother wanted me to he a good boy. raised to worship and reverence all good things. Oh ! what a love one’s mother is always giving. She never complains, but is always sacrificing for her family and friends. Now love of brothers always amused me. as they arc so serious, yet how quickly they will fly into a tantrum and argue and argue about trivial things that neither is interested in. T11 the crowd, to stand by each is a trait which seems to be hereditary. Yet “fata viam invenient” if we don’t. Yes a brother will always find a way to help a brother if it is possible, for blood is thicker than water. And one will always recognize kin at the acceptable time. 77 The Spectrum June, 1924 Now to tell the main story, as a well-known author says, there has to be a beginning to all things, great and small. I11 the aristocratic riff-raff of a cemented nation, a story is always born. It may be a former hero, a has been, or an innocent seeker of thrills, or some dreamer who gives his ideas to the public and becomes famous for his con- ceited nerve. If the world would give us ranting humans what we give it, one or the other would have to part. Then in the same way a giddy wooer would expect feminine niceties to be cajoled too. 1 wonder if an antiquated misogynist would change his mind if he were given a chance? To you, it may seem humorous or even pathetic, because of the number of elderly spinsters in this land of flirtations. Yet since man came upon the earth, there have been misanthropes. Hut why worry, for fata riant inrcnicnt'f to carry on life on this globe. If one ever gains the dreams of youthful innocence, the end of the world will come to all happiness. We never realize the beauty of a dream; still the happiness lies in the dreaming. Did Xerxes conquer the Persian world to have a larger army, a greater wealth, and an extensive fame? No! Xerxes gave his life to battle for the world. His reward was the consideration of his love by a beautiful maiden of his own choice. Lyra was a girl from one of the Cossack tribes. He went to the heights just for her consideration. As Xerxes, the modern beau brummel takes the path of dream- land to matrimony. Yet he always comes back to the start- ing point, like the spirited through-bred which invariably does the same thing at the barrier, though it races a thou- sand years—always running the same race, slightly de- creasing, yet just happy in the habit. Yet I do not mean to criticize the connoisseur of the last fad, which sweeps our country’s best pocket-books of two twin quarters. The motto of the heart would seem to be, “Sarc time; we hare to hurry up and die'' Every mirror a wishing well, even- comb a new hair dresser, and every tear a request! Tf that noted man who could satirize the domestic life were here now, I would beg him to tell these young amazons their faults. How can we get the heart of the mellow fruit, if we are only striving for the beautiful, luring colors which shield it? In the scramble of human existence, Madame Good is forgotten, for her features do not call for a critical 78 June, 1924 The Spectrum and studied attention by the two-faced butterfly or the seven tongued lounge bird. Such trival play things as butterflies do not entirely escape the bird for its beauty alone, but perchance, a healthy appetite is keenly stirred for something good and wholesome, which, although cloaked often-times in bright garments, is to a certain degree present in every phase of periodical bliss. Love oneself and never be loved. This life will end, and each one knows that a reckoning will come and leave as suddenly as a shadow of the fading sunset. Since graduation days will soon be past. We re planning swiftly for our future course. For me the natural mountains, lakes, and shores Fell secrets sweet which hold in meirTry fast. And these are safe until the very last. Because, since Nature clothes the Universe, File deeds of it contain such strength and force, Its mold upon our inward eye is cast. 'File hoary mountains are beyond the sight Of those who do not strive to climb above. The placid lakes do often shield from light Its sudden passions—just too weak to shove Them off. like some of us in some sad plight. Return to God and Nature for real love.

It lias come to be a bromidic truism that one can get what lie wants if he wants it hard enough. As is the case with most sweeping generalities, the advocate of this doc- trine must glibly recognize a few exceptions, such as the improbability of baby's ever actually procuring the moon, despite the fact that lie gives evidence of wanting it passion- ately. Nevertheless, within the limitations prescribed by rationalism, many contend man lias only to desire to realize. The antithesis of this view is, of course, the doctrine of fatalism, the belief of those who, with Del Sarto philosoph- ically muse: “We are in God’s hand. How strange now the life He makes us lead: bow free we seem, how fettered fast we are.” True, much is to be said for each tenet. Likewise, neither is free from its fallacies. As one may be said to deaden ambition, so may the other be charged with stimulat- ing mundane voracity. If one has directly augmented our material acquisitions, then it is to the other that we owe the quality of bravery and its offspring, chivalry. Surely, he who would carefully consider every prerogative of each must needs have spent his life in preparation for that analysis. The class of June, 1924, lias adopted as the motto which is to guide each member in later years. ‘‘Success is the Gift of Effort.” As above suggested, it is at best problematical whether success is the gift of effort or the gift of the gods. As in matters of religion, one can but believe in his con- victions. There is a possibility that the Christian of today will tomorrow be the pupil of strange missionaries, preach- ing stranger words. We believe not—but is not the possi- bility existent? The fact remains that our motto expresses our inherent belief. Until we have reason to alter our credences, that selection voices our creed. Not vaingloriouslv refusing to recognize that another dogma may have its premises, but believing our chosen motto to define the true principle, may we strive toward ultimate Success, our mutual goal, de- clining to await the caprices of circumstances, choosing rather to persist in expending our utmost efforts. And may there come to 11s the benefits to be born when we shall have realized that the two. now-discordant doctrines may be merged as one in compromise, finding expression in the homely proverb, “Him God aids who aids himself.” —Miles Kimiiali.. The Spectrum June, rp . Size Counts—and Discounts Creatures in by-gone, pre-historic times before the advent of man, or his evolution from the anthropoid, had names of considerable length, so long in fact that the mere thought of having to pronounce them as contemporaneous with us in this day and age, would cause us as much or more con- cern than would certain other objectionable physical habits and characteristics of the aforementioned. This contention is, of course, obviously impossible when we consider the fact that the sizes of these monsters were altogether in keeping with their polysyllabic encyclopedia classifications, but we have trouble to some extent with ultra-linear nomenclature of our language inseparable from the in- tellectual ascendency of mankind, and successfully negotiat- ing words with their antepenults in the fifth syllable is truly a task of no mean proportions for even the most glib. Aside from the linguistic hardships their living em- braced, and besides the colossal bulks that was theirs, they seemed to lack brains of even the dimensions of present day domestic animals and such vast bodies needed guidance. They could not keep themselves awake and alert because about the only thoughts their diminutive intellects em- braced were those pertaining to the absolute supremacy of size and bulk. They reasoned, We’re the biggest things out, the fiercest in battle, why should we worry and chase our heads off?” They thought this perhaps, or felt it if genuine thinking might have taxed their mentalities, and therefore developed them. Consequently, man’s one thought of them is putting their fossil remains in museums provided for the purpose, and at the same time spending thousands upon thousands of dollars for the express purpose of combating insects and microbes and such like, creatures all which existed at the time of the pleurosaurus and the machairodus felidae. Taking this example over from the animal world, we must realize that more than size or numbers is required for success and continued existence, and that the insect often succeeds where the mammoth fails. Do not say “We're big, why worry?” I ut rather, “If we’re many lets amount to something. Let’s have spirit and pep proportional to our numerical greatness.” Then watch our smoke. Tom I Ira xsford. 86 June, 1924 The Spectrum . The Gift of Effort The past ages have made evident the fact that man has striven for Utopia, the unattainable, the ideal of perfection. Although that goal has never been reached, yet it would be a misconception to believe that this endeavor has been in vain. We have an illustration of this in the Puritans’ struggle for liberty and union; they did not reach their Utopia, but the ultimate result of their effort was surely successful. Similar problems have gone on down through the generations unto this day when we must put forth our greatest efforts to obtain success. Today we find ourselves on the brink of a new experi- ence. Effort has rewarded us with graduation; effort has brought us through four years of high school; effort has obtained to some extent, success. We must rely upon the same effort to continue our success. When we first entered Jefferson four years ago, the course ahead seemed very severe, but by constant struggling we are to leave as the largest class this school has ever graduated. Nevertheless our journey is not yet completed, for college and the world lie just ahead. Trials of ex- perience and hard knocks will ever be before us. But we must attack these difficulties with the same or even greater effort than that which has brought us thus far. A body that has made a reputation for itself, as the June '24 Class has, surely will not fail when put to the test. The Utopian ideal should always he our aim. for striving earnestly for perfection will certainly bring 11s to the highest point attain- able. Therefore, let us enter into these new experiences with the ever present thought that Success is the gift of effort!” Mirray I� urxs.

Cheery blue smoke from the red chimney winds. Tells of the warmth the homecomer finds. A shiny brass knocker bangs at the gate. Making the stranger despise his state.

However, we all thought “Smilin’ Through”, which was the June ’24 play, given May 16 and 17, was very good, and although we are modest enough not to say it was “the best,” we have our doubts of any other one going over any better. The class is very grateful to the faculty advisors: Miss Greathouse, Mr. Zane, Miss Hendershott, and Mrs. San- born, who coached, built and designed properties, and cre- ated the charming old-fashioned costumes, respectively. Miss Greathouse in particular, we feel was a very capable direc- tor, and worked with the cast tirelessly, to produce a flaw- less performance. A toast—To the Cast! We certainly enjoyed their act- ing, which we though was unusually good throughout. We arc not unmindful, cither, of the work and time that was spent in perfecting the play.

Music William Allen Music, ‘‘the science of expressive and pleasing com- binations of tones,” may be divided into three types: the classical, the entertaining, and lastly the degenerating, known as “jazz.” Each type has its followers, its value, and its meaning. 89 The Spectrum June, 1924 Beethoven was perhaps the greatest writer of classical music. IIis compositions require study hy both the executor and the audience. 11 is themes are great and inspiring, and once learned will never he forgotten. They represent and visualize the soul of a great man. Indeed all music of this type results from the combination of a composer’s talent, his inspirations, and his ingenuity. Themes in classical music are written according to definite rules and orders, just as classical poetry and classical literature. Great com- posers can combine many beautiful themes, and form the most delightful and wonderful harmonies. This class of music is the greatest because it attracts the largest audience, and has the greatest value and meaning. The second type includes that music, both popular and classical, which requires no concentration nor study to un- derstand. It usually consists of sweet simple melodies, pleasing to the ear. and soothing to the mind. It has the same meaning to music as lyrical poetry has to literature, namely, to tell an entertaining story. Its value is not so great as that of classical music, yet its significance and appeal is sometimes greater. The lowest class of music is known as “jazz,” a type which signifies little but baseness. It is degenerating, and appeals mostly to a class of people, whose minds and souls have not been trained and educated to demand better. It is as changeable as modern styles and fashions, which die shortly after their birth. It is a fad which education and sincere appreciation will soon destroy. Thus we see that of the three types of music, the classical is the superior in value and sentiment, because its themes never weary the ear, and we know that permanency is the test for good music. A Timely Topic A recent speaker before the Benson Polytechnic As- sembly made some interesting remarks, among which were words to this effect: “Some people are educated and unin- tilligent: these are the highbrows. Others are uneducated and intelligent: these are the lowbrows, so-called. I would rather be a lowbrow.” I11 my opinion he is quite right. And barring the educational side of his statement, for we. as high school students, cannot yet consider ourselves truly educated, his statement is quite applicable to ourselves in our own school life. 90 June, ipJ.f The Spectrum Snobbishness is only a proof of unintelligence. Some- times some of our own schoolmates who ordinarily are friendly, every-day sort of people, change so when they re- ceive honors and notoriety that they hardly know their old friends. The best of their old pals are often passed up in the halls because they are not good enough to speak to. Jefferson High School stands for democracy and as Jeffer- son students we ought to try our best to avoid such situa- tions. People in our own midst who begin to “play the highbrow game” are only showing their own lack of in- telligence. Xo one of us is better than another in the slighest degree. It is better to be democratic in our school relations than to be a highbrow. There is no kinshap be- tween a true Jeffersonian and a snob. —Helen Shank. 91 The Spectrum June, J924 The Zeta Pictures X the east wall of our library hangs a set of five iff ™ historical pictures which were presented to the school by the Zetas in the Spring of 1923. Their artistic charm lies in the brilliant coloring, the jS3yj[ faithful reproduction of famous jewels, the minute . detail with which the peculiar weaves and styles of antique robes have been shown, and the preservation of many other old fragments held by the nobility of England which were rapidly deteriorating with age. But the pictures have an interest for the student of modern progress, of English literature, and of origins of American history, also, for they all depict important events in the life of the English people. The first at the left entitled The Origin of the Parties” is a scene from Shakespeare’s “Henry VI” and shows the beginning of political parties. A group of Tudor nobles under Richard Plantagenet, later King Richard III. were wrangling with the Lancastrians, under the Earl of Lan- caster, in the Temple Gardens. In a fit of anger Richard plucked a white rose and by it swore undying hatred for the Earl of Lancaster. Lancaster replied by picking a red rose, and as a result of this feud, the War of the Roses” followed. The next picture is imaginative of King Henry Y1 granting the charter to John Cabot to go in search of new lands. Henry is shown seated 011 the throne in the center, handing the charter to Cabot who is kneeling at the left. Behind him dimly portrayed are his three sons. The other three figures are symbolic. At the left is a middle-aged man in the robes of the church, who is approving the ex- pedition by the church. A virile young man at the right, stands for the adventurous spirit of the Renaissance which prompted the undertaking. At the very feet of the King is a child unfolding a map. He is “Maritime Adventure” and the map is of the course Cabot will take. “Latimer Preaching before King Edward VI” is in the center. For several years the aged Latimer preached persistently and vigorously at court against the petty vices of the times. Latimer was one of the outstanding religious figures of English history. The fourth picture is of “Mary at the Tower Gate. 1553.” It shows “Bloody Mary” in one of her few, merciful moments. Some of the strong protestants had persuaded 5)2 June, 1924 The Spectrum Edward VI to leave the throne to Lady Jane Grey. But Mary was the real heir and the English people so pro- claimed her. As she entered London at the head of her troops, the leaders of those who had been against her begged her forgiveness. This she granted, and only three men who refused to support her were executed. The last is of a later period and shows Charles V de- manding the surrender of the five members, Kimbolton, Pym, Hampden, Flazerigg, Holies, and Strode. Charles knew they were leading Parliament and the people against his autocratic plans. Therefore he took an army and went lo seize them, but they had already fled and Charles was defeated. The five members stand as exponents of the rights of the people. The originals of all these pictures belong to the famous Houses of Parliament Collection and hang in Westminster Palace in London. The artists are all different painters, but they are among the best that France, Holland, and England could offer in the period of 1890. Each painting was a gift from a member of the nobility of England. Sussex. Lancaster, and York, to swell the historic are collection of the British Islands. —Marion Maciien The Spectrum June, 1924 Playing the Game Frances Burton “Out of the harbor—into the sea.” And we enter upon that battle called Life, Where there's work for you and work for me. And success is to those who conquer the strife: Where there’s doubt and despair at each turn in the road. And a struggle and fight for each small gain. But there’s beauty and hope to lighten the load. And there’s love to temper each pain. So when you’ve been tested and proved your worth. And borne fame and rebuff just the same, Then you’re doing your part on God’s great earth. And what’s more—you are playing the game. 54 JUNE ’24 Our class has been called together many times lately to practice our class song under the direction of Mr. Reed. At a meeting on April � 30, Mr. Jenkins spoke to the class concerning their Spectrum and Commencement. Owing to the size of the class, we arc to have our Com- mencement exercises in the Municipal Auditorium on June 9. W ith a dee]) sigh of regret we must now say good-bye to old Jefferson High School and the Blue and Gold. We have seen the student body grow, the faculty increase, and new buildings erected. We have spent many enjoyable hours within the building, studying or in classes, and be- lieving that our career has truly been a success. We have an excellent faculty and enjoyed the spirit of good fellow- ship with them. And now we must graduate and bid you farewell, J. IT. S., but we wish you success and happiness. —Emii.y Rtoken, Secretarv. JANUARY ’25 The January Class Movie, “Brothers Under the Skin” was given on Thursday and Friday. The returns are not in yet, but the movie was a big success in every way. William Dickson has been appointed to make plans for some sort of a sale to be held soon. —Frances Murphy, Secretary. TRI Y NOTES Anyone who has watched the activities of the Tri Y s will have realized that this past term has been the most successful since its organization a few years ago. Our social service work has been conducted systematically. A great deal of the success of the meetings is due to the President, Janet Hlisted, and to the efforts of the chairman of the program committee. Mazie Richards. 95 The Spectrum June, 192 The out-going members are: Betty Bimrose. Secretary Spring team 1923; Janet Johnstone, Treasurer Spring '23 ; Helen Freydig, Helen Pearce, Margaret Reisacher, Vice- Presidents Fall '23; Leslie Gage. Vice-President Spring ’23; Florence Wade, Mazie Richards, President Fall ’23 : Frances Borton, Winifred Arnold. Frances Chambers, Ruth Street, Treasurer Spring '24; Eda Logan, Treasurer Fall '24; Dorothy Munsell, Secretary Fall '23. Editor Spring '24. —Dorothy Munsell. Editor. THE PENMANSHIP CLUB The Penmen take this opportunity to thank Minnie Smith, Vice-President of our club and member of the June '24 class, for her faithful services during the long absence of our President. Without so good a leader our purpose could not have been developed to the extent it has during the past semester. We surely appreciate Minnie. Xext term we hope to do bigger things than we have already done. With the co-operation the Commercial Stu- dents always-give our club, there should be nothing in the way of the progress. —Dorothy Buxton, Secretary. PHILOMATHEAN CLUB The Philomatheans have had a successful year. A membership drive conducted during the first part of the term increased the membership to the maximum. The sale of miniature bats on the day of the opening baseball game was a profitable one. The club is at present planning a silver tea to be given for members and their mothers in the near future. The club hopes next year to keep up the standards and continue work so well begun. —Susan Elliot. Secretary. PI DELTA EPSILON With the departure of the June Class, the Pi Delts are indeed sorry to lose the helpfulness and fellowship of nine- teen of its faithful members, being: Edward Appelgren. President Fall '23. Treasurer Spring ‘24: Walter Bollam, Allen Bracher. Thomas Bransford. Hadley Cantril. Acting President Fall 23: Ed Crowlev. Fred Jov. Miles Kimball. Vice-Presidents Spring '24; Francis McKenna, President Spring '24; Pat Merrick, Donald Nelson. Robin Overstreet, John Peterson. Wm. Prendergast. Joe Roberts. Secretary Fall '23 : Lyle Searing. Peter Sullivan, and Virgil Wylie. We do not wish to record this as a total loss, for a casual visit is a 1 wavs to be welcomed. 96 June. iy2.f The Spectrum I nder Mr. McKenna’s guiding hand, the club feels that it has accomplished much in the past term. The club was the recipient of a copy of the rules for the 68th Congress and of the original Jeffersonian rules, so kindly sent to the club by Mr. Wallace Wharton, a former Pi Delt, and now acting as a private secretary in Congress. By the sign of the owl, ye shall know 11s. —Sim 1:0x Cantril, Secretary. THE INNESS ART CLUB Because the Art C lub has not existed many long years, as have other Jefferson organizations, do not think for a moment that it is not equally as important. Many of our members are graduating with the Class of June '24. including Margaret Fritz, Priscilla Chatten. Betty O’Brien. Carol Peret, Carl Rasmussen, Helen Schwichten- berg, Hilda Wanker, Carvel Xelson, Myrn Varney, Evelyn Walcott and Bertram James. We feel, nevertheless, that our new members will com- pensate for this loss, by making the Fall of ’24. and the Spring of '25, the best and most efficient, in proving to the student body that we arc among the foremost in the uphold- ing of Jefferson’s traditions. —Hilda Wanker. Secretary. KLATAWA NOTES We are having, over the first week-end in May, our tirst big hike of the season. We are going to Rock Creek where we will stay over Saturday night. We plan to re- turn Sunday afternoon. The girls are looking forward to this because they have had such good times on past hikes. We are also giving food and clothing to our poor family, which greatly appreciates our efforts. —Edith Bain, Secretary. ZETA DELTA SIGMA Have you noticed how shiny the cups in the lihrarv are. how artistically the library has been decorated? This is what the Zetas have done for Jefferson. Many of the members have taken an active part in school affairs such as the Vaudeville, the Class Play, and The Spectrum. Out of the thirty members, nineteen of them are grad- uating this term: Betty Bimrose. Lois Burton. Helen Frey dig. Secretary Spring 24 : Leslie Gage. Scrgeant-at- Arms Fall '23: Eda Logan, Dorothy Munsell. Marion 97 The Spectrum June, 1924 0 Machen, President Spring 23; Marion Xeer, Marie Palo, Helen Pearce, Vice-President Spring 24; Margaret Reisacher, Mazie Richards. Marjorie Scott, Dorothy Sisk, Ruth Street. Frances Tavlor, and Florence Wade. Many of the members were on the honor roll during the entire term. The club’s average for the third quarter was two and two tenths. We are sure that the Zetas will always keep up their good work. —Helen Freydig, Secretary. WINGED PEN The Winged Pen Club has finished its literary work for the term, and very interesting work it has been. Those who have watched its progress are assured that next term the work will he even more interesting because the club will start out with entirely new standards. 'I'lie members graduating are Miles Kimball, Hadley Cantril, John Peterson. Levonia Copeland, Jcnnette Schwan, Helen Shank and Marie Palo. —Margaret Lee Slusher. Secretary. J CLUB After a long spell of hibernation the J Club has finally come to life with a great deal of enthusiasm. The old Jefferson spirit that seems to have been forgotten still predominates and can readily he seen at the meetings. On April 30. the Order of the W (Washington High Lctterman’s Club) invited the J Club to attend one of their meetings. The purpose of this meeting was to get the athletes from the two schools together in a social way. The meeting was a howling success, socially and other- wise. This June the club will lose a great many members who will be graduated. The following men will never participate in athletics for Jefferson again: Ashby. Bracher, Crowley. Giles. Grossmayer, Hurlburt, Lockwood. Lucius, Mivez. Monte, Overstreet. Pendergast, Peterson. Sullivan, Wetzel. Woodcock, Joy and Enke. A joint meeting of lettermen from all schools in the city is scheduled for May 21. The purpose of the meeting is to standardize requirements for letters all over the city. Jefferson’s representatives are: Allan Bracher, Roy Hurl- hurt. William Pendergast. —Trying Fi.egel, Secretary. ! 8 June, lyjj The Spectrum CAMERA CLUB The Camera Club has reached the end of a very success- ful and interesting term. The members have taken a great many pictures and gone on numerous hikes. Among these the trips to Macleay Park and Battleground Lake were especially enjoyable. The graduation of several members of the June Class will create a number of vacancies. Those to graduate are John Ashby. Priscilla Chatten, Mabel Johnson. Marion Jones. Marion Xeer. Mabel Phipps, Bill Prendergast, Amy Rudeen, Marjorie Scott. Helen Shank. Pete Sullivan. Bob Summers, Myrn Varney, and Walter Wilbur. Juniors and Seniors who are owners of cameras are eligible for mem- bership. Names should be handed in immediately to one of the members. — IIki.kx Shank. Secretary-Treasurer. FRENCH CLUB The French Club is going to feel the need of cooperative members next term. We are sorry so many of our charter members will graduate. Those leaving us are Dorothy Reed. Eleanor Andrus. Frances Horton, Kathryn Bonham, Irma Underwood, Marjorie Went, Mary Warner. Edna Wold, William Allen. Donald Nelson, Marjorie Fletcher. Hilda Wanker. Madeline Barbeau and William Prendergast. We wish them the best of luck in the future and hope that they have received something worthwhile as members of the club. —Francks Rick. Secretary. THE PREPER CLUB The Preper Club, or the Junior Tri-Y, has been or- ganized for one year. Our membership numbered eighteen at the end of the first term, but has increased to fifty, which alone shows we are worth while. Club programs given every two weeks have kept the girls busy and interested. We have had two formal and one informal initiations at the Y. W. C. A. Twenty girls greatly enjoyed a skating party at The Oaks rink in April, also on May 24 and 25, we spent the week-end at the Rock Creek Camp. Three of our girls went to the Salem conference and forty attended the Portland conference. We are looking forward to spending a week or more at Rock Creek Camp during the summer vacation. —Audrey Baier, Secretary. 99 The Spectrum June, i()2.j THE BOYS’ GLEE CLUB Much to the regret of the I Soys' («lee Club. Mr. Reed will leave in June for Europe. W hile there, he hopes to visit England, France, Switzerland. Egypt, and last but not least, Italy, where his daughter resides whom he has not seen for five years. In England. Mr. Reed intends to make his stay long enough to investigate thoroughly the music teaching system in the high schools, so that when he gets back in January, 1925, the Glee Club will be able to profit from Mr. Reed’s trip. Kenneth Zander, Jim Rogers, and John Holland will be missed next term as their voices in the basso section were used to great advantage. Any boy in Jefferson High is eligible to the Glee Club, and mav now earn three credits in music instead of only two as before. It is hoped that the club may be so successful next term as to be able to stage several concerts during the Eall seasons. —Lacrkn I� . Sykes. Secretary. THE BLUE JAY DEBATING SOCIETY The new members who have been voted into the club are: Xeal Hanson, Charles Eronk, Jerome Bishoff, Edmund Hall. Howard Hall, Frank Fisher. Most of the time this term was given to teaching new members the correct form of debate. At the beginning of next semester we will have some real debaters. When all are sufficiently trained, we hope to challenge a debating society of some other school. Several interesting topics have been discussed by older members. Because of the many school activities during the spring term, regular meetings could not be held. Next term we will have more pep than ever while conducting our meet- ings. New plans for reorganization will soon begin. The elate for our annual banquet has been set for June sixth. Jack Stipe, Secretary. GOLF TEAM For the past three years golf has become a very prom- inent minor sport in the Portland High Schools. This year Jefferson has an excellent team on the links. Although The Spectrum will go to press before the final outcome of the golf standings are known, Jefferson may rest assured that the team will come out near the top. The team is made up of the following men: Douglas Kirk, Captain: Ed Crowley. Robert McMath. Tssac Staples. too June. 1924 The Spectrum FIRE SQUAD 'I'he Fire Squad under Chief Herbert Hayek has done a great deal this term. I lose drills have been held, stair- ways have been blocked, and a drill has been held while the students were in the auditorium. Such drills as these have not been held for six years. Consequently there was a great deal of work in preparing for these drills. With the cooperation of the student body Jefferson will always have a World's Champion Fire Squad. —Howard H. Van Nick, Asst. Bat. Chief. A Thought Hadley Cantril There come times in our lives as the years come and go, When we feel that our efforts were naught: Our dreams seem to fade and our hopes disappear. As we think of the fantasies wrought. 'fhe thoughts we once had in a happier day. The joys and the pleasures we loved. Seem to have all been taken away And we wonder if God is above. It seems as though all of our faith must be gone And dark clouds steal over the dawn; But alone in our course we should stand firm and true. If we know we are right and the others are wrong. We all have our hardships, our setbacks, our cares. We all have our hopes and onr dreams: If we wait and be patient and keep up our fight. We’ll find great success in our schemes. 101 The Spectrum Views Angelis Ralph June, 192.1 I listened to the music that the wind made through the trees, I paused to catch each note of the birds’ sweet melodies. I watched the fountain’s diamonds as they fell into the bowl. And I saw the honey bees as they to the flowers stole. I looked up to the skv—amber fleets upon the blue. I noticed sunlit shadows ’bout the blossoms’ every hue. For Beauty, Nature’s glories all relentless seemed to strive. And I could not help but murmur, ’'Pis good to he alive.” A Sonnet Joe Turlay If they prefer the music of the band. Or yet the stirring notes of fife and drum. Tis well. But still the sound in all the land To me most pleasant is the rhythmic hum Of good machine, well oiled and running free. Yet some would hear but harsh, unpleasant sound. Again, in search for beauty some may be Enthralled by clouds across the bright moon round. Or sunset o’er the long, low, snow-capped ridge. ’Tis strange, but though to me these things mean naught. The strength and grace of some great, sturdy bridge Inspires and fills me with delight unsought. Let each find joy in ways that suit him best. Although his pleasures differ from the rest. 102 T T ▼ SI.YIJ XHV SXVIHAVKOIIII.I r FRKNCII CLUI!

You search through all your pockets, And look through all your books. You cannot find your tickets, No matter where you look. When at last some kind dear friend, Has lent you one or two, You gaily board the street-car And the conductors says to you: “Please show your book so I can see, Where this ticket used to be.” You frown and fret and then you sweat, And answer, ‘‘I ain’t found it, yet.” It surely is disgusting, And it’s bound to change your mood. When the conductor calmy says to you, “Your ticket is no good.” 133 The Spectrum June, 1924 An Episode of the Fly Hadley Cantril One morning in church O11 a fine day in June, 1 happened to look ’round And none too soon. For while I was looking O’er the audience fair. I chanced to see a man Without any hair. 1 gazed at his pate And what should I spy, But on this man’s head Lit a mischievous fly. Jt pranced and it danced And scratched its small nose. While during the sermon This old man did doze. It skated and slid, And the shimmie did do, First lightly on one leg. Then quickly on two. When from the pulpit came The words “Let 11s pray”. The man bowed his head And the fly flew away. Now what from the sermon Did this old man win ? He detracted attention And committed a sin. 134 June, 19 4 The Spectrum Human Ancestry Tom Braksford J11 Oregon, long, long ago: When the land year-round was garbed in snow, When Ape-Men chattered in the trees, Picking their teeth and scratching for fleas, There lived a group of these venerable fellows With limbs of steel and lungs like bellows; Cannabalistic a wee degree, Amiable, too, as a creature could be When merry he was, despicable, gay, Very unselfish when he had his way. Speaking of them all together, They were in good health, enjoyed the weather— For though they chattered all day long. It wasn’t for cold, ’twas just for song. They fought and laughed as humans do.

Quand les feuilles de l’Automne changeaient, rouges et d’or, la plupart des membres de la classe de juin, mil neuf cent vingtquatre, sont entres dans Tecole superieure Jeffer- son. Nous y sommes entres et nous sonnies devenus une partie de cette grande ecole. Nous nous souviendrons toujours des jours que nous y avons passes. Ils ont ete tres agreables parce que nous nous rendbns compte que notre progres a ete en nous. Mais le printemps est enfin venu et il nous faut dire ‘‘Adieu” a cette ecole magnifique, a notre principal, Ilopkin Jenkins, et a tous nos maitres qui ont ete nos amis fideles et nos guides pendant ces quatres annees. Nous regrettons beaucoup de ne pouvoir plus longtemps etre membres des classes frangaises, mais nous n’oublierons pas ce que nous avons appris. La fin couronne l’oeuvre et nous lequons maintenant a nos maitres et, surtout, a ces maitres qui nous ont enseigne la langue frangaise, notre appreciation la plus grande pour leur sincerite et leur aide. Adieu, notre ecole charmante, et nous desirous tous que les membres de la classe suivante soutiennent vos regies comme nous avons tache de le faire. Par Edna Woi.d. LA VIE Un ciel fache et une mer si sombre, Une mouette, volante par rembrun des flots; La menace des roches obscures qui se levent— Les Sentinelles qui gardent la route de Teau. La couleur grise de rembrun orageux. La cime d’argent et un ciel rond; Les flots d’une mer exposee au soleil, Et la paix d’un port qui vous attend. Par Edna Wold. 137 The Spectrum June, lyj.f UN CONTE DES OURS Pendant l’ete passe j’ai voyage en automobile a Yellow- stone Park. Clique unit nous dormions dans une tente, et ton jours nous vivions en terreur des ours, car il y avait taut de ccs animaux dans le pare. Quoique les gardes-forestiers nous avaient dit que les betes n’etaient pas sauvages, nous ne tenions pas a etre trop pres deux. Une nuit nia mere s’eveilla. “Qu'est-ce que e’est que ce bruit?” dit-elle. Elle regarda hors de la tente et vit une grande ombre et deux petites ombres. C’etait une ourse et sesdeux oursons. Puis mon pere s’eveilla et il vit aussi les ours. II fit un grand bruit avec des pieces de fer blanc, et les ours disparurent. Puis je m’eveillai; est-ce que c’etait une reve? Non, c’etait vrai. mais pendant tout cela je dormais, et, quand c. toute la commotion fut finie, je me suis levee. J’avais tout manque. Par Dorothy Reed. MODELE D’UNE LETTRE QUI NE TRAVERSE PAS L’ATLANTIQUE J’ecris cette lettre parce que 111a maitresse me commande. Il y a beaucoup d’eleves autour de moi qui ecrivent aussi des lettres. Je pense que leurs lettres sont tres intercssantes, n'est-ce pas? Je suis un garcon de soixante ans. J’ai une socur, Marie, qui va aussi a l’ecole. J’ai un chat qui est un collie. Il aboie beaucoup. Mon pere a dix cheveux. Il les garde dans une ecurie la nuit. Je crois que cette lettre est assez longue. N’est-ce pas? N’ecrivez pas trop. Votre ami, Jean. DES CONSEILS D’UN ANCIEN SENIOR A CEUX QUI APPRENNENT LE FRANCAIS Ne pensez pas d'apres moil titre que je sois un ancien arrogant et un egoiste qui ecrit une composition pour ce journal afin de me moquer de mes semblables des classes inferieuses. Je ne le suis point. Je donne simplement, avant mon depart de cette ecole, des conseils et des recomanda- tions a ceux qui commendent maintenant ou qui sont peut- etre an milieu de leur etude de la langue franchise. Je leur donne ce$ conseils en esperant qu'ils profiteront de mes experiences passees et de mes vues d’a present. 138 June, 1924 The Spectrum Vous, qui apprenez le frangais, n'avez nulle idee de la valeur de cette langue maintenant, et vous l’aurez plus tard. Ainsi, absorbez-la lentement, et digerez-la entierement pour qu’elle s’attache surement a votre intelligence et pour qu’elle devienne line partie de votre vie. Dans le cours de frangais a Jefferson, on etudie beau- coup d'histories interessantes et de pieces frangaises, comme “Sans Famille”, “La Mare au Diable”, “Madame Therese”, “Le Monde ou Ton s’ennuie”, et cetera. 11 faut qiforiTise ces histoires pour gagner un plus grand vocabulaire fran- gais. Le secret de, traduire bien et facilement ces histoires depend de ceci. Etudiez bien les premieres vingt-cinq pages et vous serez a meme de lire et traduire, les suivantes avec beaucoup de facilite, car on dit avec verite que le vocabulaire de tout livre se trouve dans la premiere partie. Perniettez-moi de vous poser une question. Pourquoi etudiez-vous le frangais? Est-ce pareeque vous ne travaillez que pour recevoir une marque necessaire pour la graduation, ou est-ce que vous aimez le sujet et comptez vous en servir a bon avantage plus tard. Dans ce dernier cas vous voulez naturellement faire tout ce qui vous aidera a atteindre votre but Outre la classe frangaise, il v a deux autres moyens dans cette ecole par lesquels vous pouvez perfectionner votre .savoir de la langue; a savoir, Le Spectrum et Le Club Frangais. Le Spectrum vous domic l’occasion de montrer votre talent; et Le Club Frangais vous accorde le privilege d’apprendre mieux a entendre la langue et a la parler. C’est votre devoir de devenir membre de ce club, si e’est possible, et aussi d’ecrire quelque chose pour Le Spectrum que vous tacherez de rendre original. J’etudie le frangais depuis trois annees. Je regrette que je n'aie pas pu l’etudier davantage parce que je me rends maintenant compte de ses grands avantages. Ce semestre, notre classe d'anglais a du lire “anity Fair’’ par Thackeray. Dans ce livre on trouve bien des phrases frangaises et il m’a beaucoup gratifie de savoir traduire et comprendre ces morceaux de frangais sans me servir de dictionnaire. Ceci n’est qu’une des nombreuses valeurs du frangais. Ainsi, je finirai par dire que ce sont les conseils d’ltn ancien qu voudrait avoir Toccasion de recommencer ses etudes. 139 Par William Allen.

Esa palabra nos lleva un cuadro de floes de colores variables, pajaros que canten de manana hasta noclie, arboles con sus nuevas hojas de verde, todo el mundo feliz y sonriendo, y el mundo banado en sol. Por todas partes estan signos de la estacion feliz. Todas las mananas se encuentra alguna nueva flor muy bonita con un olor dulce. El muchacho en la escuela no tiene ganas de estudiar las lecciones dificiles pero quiere ir a pescar o jugar a la pelota. Los jovenes aman a las senoritas—no pueden descansar. Todo el mundo tiene la enfermidad de primavera pero todos son felices proque es la estacion in- comparable de primavera. Por Marik Pai.o. QUE LAS CORDONICES LLAMAN—BOB WHITE Muchos anos ha, cuando el mundo era nuevo, el bosque grande era el hogar de muchas codornices. En el horde del basque vivio un hombre muv anciano que se llamaba Bob White. Era muy amable y siempre ayudaba a todas las personas y todo sin dinero. Todas las criaturas vivas le amaban. Un invierno muy riguroso cuando las codornices no podian hallar nada para comer y cuando tuvieron mucha bambre y nuicbo. frio decidieron ir a Bob White. Supieron epic era generoso. Cuando Bob White abrio su puerta, esa manana se sor- jjrendio y se deleito hallar las codornices aguardandole. Sabiendo por que razon vinieron. fue a su granero y abriendo las puertas grandes, distributo el grano en cl pavimento del granero. Las codornices estuvieron muy felices y comieron todo lo que quisieron. Por unas semanas vinieron cada manana y Bob White les dio algo para comer. Plies una nochc calamitosa, el anciano hombre murio y la siguicnte manana la tribu plumada aguardd en vano por 141 The Spectrum •June, i ?2.f su llegada. No podian comprencler por que razon no vino. Convocaron todos dc su tribu y decidieron que debian hallar a Bob White. Entonces despidieron en todas direcciones y le han buscado y han llamado desde aquel entonces. Por Elizabeth Hines. AL GRADUARNOS DE LA ESCUELA SUPERIOR Race cuatro anos, mas o menos, algunos tres cientos mucliachos y muchachas ingresaron en la escuela superior de Jefferson como estudientes del primer aho. Entonces teniamos pocos anos, y siempre que Riamos tener mas anos y habernos graduado de la escuela. Durante los cuatro anos liemos trabajado y hetnos jugado. Hemos estudiado nuestras lecciones (algunos veces) y hemos hecho muchos sucesos y muchas faltas. Pero siempre nos hemos dicho—jOjala que fuesemos miembres de la clase superior! Que felices seriamos— Miramos a los miembros de esta clase como seres grandes y nobles, y creiamos que no hubiera nada mejor que esto. A1 fin vino el dia (ya se ve demasiado pronto) en que nos volvimos miembros de la ultima clase. One contentos y ([lie grandes y importantes nos sentimos. Entonces obtu- vimos nuestras “J.’s” Siempre habiamos querido usar una “J.” Aunque por cuatro anos hemos deseado graduarnos dc Jefferson, ahora, cuando ese tiempo ha llegado, estamos felices, pero algo desconsolados tambien. Estamos descon- solados solamente cuando pensemos en que nunca mas nos pasearemos por los salones de Jefferson, nunca mas asistiremos a las asambleas en el auditorio los lunes, y nunca mas nos apresuraremos a nuestras clases. Cuando hemos salido de la escuela los demas de los estudiantes olvidaran pronto nuestra clase, y otras clases tomaran nuestros sitios.

You should look for the same thing that the Artist would look for when he goes out to find a suitable setting for his picture. He would try to find a mood in Nature that would corre- correspond to his own mood or one that best expresses his idea. Did you know that Nature had moods just as you and I ? I do not believe you do, and neither did we until Mr. Zane proved it to us. When you look at a waterfall whose water is dancing and flying as it falls, you see the moods of freedom and happiness. When you see a weather- beaten tree whose limbs and trunk are twisted and bent, you sec a tree which very much resembles the human being who has long struggled in the storms of life. There are endless other examples which you could try to find for yourself. Have you ever noticed the divisional points in Nature? Nature, if you will notice, does not plant her trees in straight rows and at equal distances from each other, as we would, but she places them ‘‘here, there and everywhere”, some separate and alone, others in groups or clusters. When you look for these things you should thoroughly enjoy your hike or outing. % $ % sfc The students in the Art Classes are doing very creditable work. The younger girls in Miss Patterson's Art Classes are learning how to design clothing for women. Others arc doing craft work, which includes the decorating and painting of book-ends, candlestick holders, picture frames 143 The Spectrum June, 1924 and pretty boxes in the gesso work. The students are also decorating trays in the conventionalized designs with the enamel colors. The advanced students are doing modeling which is very attractive. Some girls are decorating the parchment lampshades which are most attractive. If you go up to the Art Rooms and look at the work which has been completed, you, yourself, will say that it was well worth your while to have walked up that extra flight of stairs. The Spectrum Staff and the Art Department will lose and miss one of their best assistants and teachers when Mr. Zane leaves us next semester to take a posiition at the University of Oregon. While we regret to have him leave, we all hope that he will enjoy his work there in a new and larger field. The Maiden of My Dreams Ruby Peterson Last night. I had a pleasant dream Of a maiden, gentle and fair, I ler eyes were blue, her lashes dark. And also dark her hair. She is the maiden of my dreams. She stays the whole night through When I unto a land do go, A land where dreams are true. She flees soon after morning comes, A filmy, opaque sprite. Over my sleep she officiates, She guides my thoughts aright. Tnto paths of pleasant dreams I stray With this companion bright. She is the maiden of my dreams— My guiding star at night. in By examination of articles of personal nature through- out this magazine we believe the editor in charge of said section to be self-evident. We jes’ can't have our toes stepped on. :J: $ ❖ In the Spring a young man's fancy turns lightly to thoughts of moustaches. Eh, Johnny? ijc :; :jc It is reported that Ned Babson expects much of his worry to disappear with the demise of June '24. We can’t seem to feature Dan Doonev as a Doctor, that is, a Doctor of Medicine. rjs No. Seth, a second-story man needs to be able to scale palings and cross roofs without being apprehended. ❖ One thing the editors are thankful for: No eyes have been strained looking over all the material handed in. ❖ Appropriate motto for Holland I Iansen : One who never oped his trap but what the rafters groaned, one who never doubted luck would turn, held steady in his course though right or wrong, maintained we flunk to pass, live to learn. Summer, and no cracks about Spring poetry! Surely, we have merely overlooked the item. Now it comes time for us to wish we had Winter. Mr. Horning: What are the “gold points?” The chap- ter tells about them. Virgil: I read the chapter but didn’t see the points. 145 The Spectrum June, 1924 THE SUPERMAN John Peterson’s reputation for first aid. Is as tall as Wes Chatten. Has the girth of M. Kimball. Is endowed with P. Sullivan’s voice. Has a mouth of the dimensions of M. Woodworth’s. The laugh of D. Nelson. Ed. Appelgren’s cheeks. Bob Hynd’s grin. 1 lad Cantril's brains. h'rancis McKenna’s oratorical ability and twinkling eyes. Dave Garman’s dimples. LiT Morry Gallegly’s good nature. Bob Taylor’s track prowess. Ed. Crowley’s gallantry. Jim Eoff’s versatility. Has A1 Mivez’s professional bearing. We wonder how many people will believe that F(red) Wade can and does high jump up to four feet six inches. Some enterpriser ought to sign Vic Wetzel up on a fish- spearing job. The Arctic explorer had just asked for a volunteer to go out in the cold northern winter to procure fresh meat. “If you want someone to get you some meat,” spoke up Bob Summers, “I suggest Archie Fries.” ❖ Marion, does “Moonyeen” come from the Chinese? Blackboard legend: Marjorie Went 9:35. A subscriber writes to know if she came back. CAN YOU IMAGINE: Vic Wetzel without his snooze? Bill Prendergast not talking to girls? Win. Joos without his banana special? Ellis McCrea playing tiddle-de-winks? Del Monte as a toe dancer? Ken. Kaseherg with lockjaw? Tom Bransford asking for wind-sprints? Marjory Fletcher with bobbed hair? Marjory Scott with her Civics? 146 June, J924 The Spectrum Janet Johnstone without her compact? Leroy Draper as a yell-leader? Dorothy Munsell not talking? Joe Roberts as a caveman? Win. Kempenich without his Physics? ❖ Why was Freddy Joy so skillful in interpreting certain parts of “Smilin' Through?” Experience, Fred? ❖ Notice all the “Alices'’ in our class—Pennington, Stein, Lofgren. ;jc sjc }jc Why is it that Gerald Martin is always so anxious to get to Room 30 the seventh period?

Poets’ Thoughts (No. 3) (As Homer originally wrote it.) Mary had a little lamb. Its feet were white as snow: And everywhere that Mary went. That lamb was sure to go. (As Alphonso Mivez would write it.) Mary had a diminutive ruminant quad- ruped of the genus ovis; Its pedal extremities had a Caucasium complexion like precipitation formed from aqueour vapor in air; And into whatsoever remote region Mary perambulated. The ruminant quadruped would unques- tionably adventure. (As Roy Hurlburt would write it.) Literarerary Edititidition Mary had a puny mutton. Its pins were not so black; When Mary heat it down the pike The ram was in her track. (As Peter Sullivan would write it.) How do you like those lamb chops, fel lows ? Pine? I thought you would. Mighty tender, eh? Well. I suppose that you have all heard of sweet Mary? Yes, she was almost as lovable a damsel as Eddie, and she had a pet calf. I guess lamb chops come from a calf, don't they? Well, this little calf had white little foot- sies, and it actually adored Mary. I want to take back what I said about Mary being as lovable as Eddie. Price: Free Verse How could she? Anyway, wherever this cowlet went, so history affirms, Mary seemed to he right in front of it. which would l-cad us to infer that it followed Mary. Even as I followed-----. Yes. Eddie, is a nice girl and she knows All the facts in the ease, Off Mary vs. The Teachers. If you like (.ambehops. however, we will dispense with details— Or would like to read I-amb’s Talcs. (As Joe Roberts would write it.) Mary had a wonderful little lambkin. And when she brought it to school the teacher said, “That lamb simply CAN’T come in this School!” But Mary said, The lambKIN.’’ THE MONTHLY SPECTER A Son-of-a-Gun (No. 4) I 1 like my horses and I like them wild; Been ridin’ broncs since I was a child. My legs am bowed, and my back am bent. Still. I’ve got folks scared—I'm a two- gun gent. II I've got a pony and he sure is wise, Just keep away, I'm a-telling you guys! If he lifts his heel and lets it fly. Boy. if you ain't killed, you're gonna die. How to Mail a Letter (No. 6) After writing it, place it in a square or oblong envelope—round ones arc no longer fashionable—seal it on the back and write a legible address on the front: then take a two-ccnt stamp, give it a good licking and retire it to the corner —the upper righthaud corner, on the outside—never inside, as the postmaster is not a clairvoyant. Drop it in a little box and trust to luck. If it’s a love letter it will probably reach her all right, for Cupid is a faithful postman and carries a stout pair of wings. If it's a bill by all means have it regis- tered: otherwise your debtor will swear he never got it. If its cash for your tailor, heed the post-office warning. Don't send money through the mail. Wait until you happen to meet him on the street. If he sees you first, you Lo—He sure is a clean athlete. Bo—That may be; but there’s a vacuum cleaner.

The action takes place in a room in a removed tower, a window balcony highly decorated, adorns the center backstage. An Egyptian couch is placed on the left on which a rather small (?) young princess is dreamily reposed. Hero, a dashing kinglet, en- ters through window balcony. ACT I Hero: Ah! still sleeping and it's 8 o'clock. Princess: (Repeated snores mixed with cow-puffs.) Hero: Wake, beautiful one. school doors arc awaiting you! (In soliloquy) Ah! how thou lookest like a reclining Venus. Oh, what joys from woman spring, etc. (Enter villain.) Villain: Get thee hence, varlct. or THE MONTHLY SPECTER perchance I shall smite thee. Hero: Oh. sir, tarry if thou wilt. Villain: Nay, knave, hold out thy hand. (Hero extends arm and villian slaps it. Hero admits howl of pain: exeunt hero followed by villain.) ACT II (Enter hero, then villain; another room in castle.) Hero (on knees): Stay thy arm yet a little and I shall depart. Villain: Hold; this shall be thy pun- ishment: thou shalt tell me a story. Hero: Woe is me! Alack! I know none.

Disciples of gay music’s gorgeous train— To seek the best in art, fulfill their dreams. Become a star of premier rank, attain Fhe acme of perfection, win renown! To Rome, Berlin, Vienna they sojourn. And other music centers that are found, To satiate the hopes that in them burn. Alas! They now return, but fail to shine And sparkle like the drops of morning dew. Instead, a languid welcome do they find; With the unique, rare pow’r to charm, hut few Are gifted and endowed with aptitude, That essence of success through fortitude. 162 June, 1(424 The Spectrum wan bo© e?o 7E= OF THE JUNJE CLASS -M«.

The Jefferson-Franklin game was postponed. The following week the Blue and Gold nine took the Roosevelt team into camp with the score 6-4. The game with Benson was called at the end of the first inning, on account of rain, with the score, Benson 2, Jefferson 1. The game with Roosevelt was played at Columbia Park and was rather an easy victory for the Democrats. The only time Roosevelt really threatened was in the ninth frame, but their rally was speedily put to an end. Jefferson drew first blood in the opening canto when Parker walked, Xelson singled to right and continued to third when Camp- bell let the ball get away from him, Parker scoring. Marett hit to Leonard who threw to the plate too late to get Nelson. In the second with two gone. Captain Wally Giles homed to deep right center. The Rough Riders came back in their half when Llewellyn got to first on Parker's error and took second on a passed ball. Moore sacrificed and Llewellyn scored when Marett threw to third. The Democrats continued to score in the third inning. Xelson walked and went to second on Marett's sacrifice. Robinson doubled to center, scoring Nelson and Enke singled, scoring Robinson. In the fifth the Blue and Gold players scored their final run when Robinson singled, stole second and third and scored on Grayson's drive to right. The Rough Riders added a run in the sixth when Schultze tripled and was brought in by Moore's single. In the ninth they made a final stand but were not able to win the game. Moore walked and took second on Hagen’s sacrifice. Brown singled and stole second. Moore scored on Campbell’s sacrifice fly and Brown came in on a passed ball. Olsen got to first on an error but he was caught napping, ending the game. ir,5 The Spectrum June, 1924 The score: Jefferson— Roosevelt— AB . R. H. E. AB. . R. II. E.

Prendegast; mile relay, Lucius, Simmonds, Robertson. Joos; two mile relay. Overstreet. Scott, Jennings. Peterson: 880 relay, McCutchan, Taylor, Bracher, Prender- gast: Medley. Giles, Gleason. Crowley, Joy: shot put relay, juniors—440 and 880 relays. Hill. Duffield, Bransford, Livesly, Maginnis; mile relay, Krieger, Wuner, R. Jennings. Tousey. In a dual meet with Reed the Blue and Gold men won easily by a score of 85 to 37. The team showed up well at Corvallis against the Rooks and Washington High. Al- though the Babes won the meet with 68 points and Jefferson gathered in only 50, the latter was a good score considering that Washington was able to get only 19. Wetzel tossed the javelin 165.4, which was several feet short of his record at Vancouver two weeks before, but still was better than the record for Portland high school meets. Jefferson was thought to be short of good sprinters, but Prendergast dis- proved this by stepping the century in 10.1, the record in the high schools of the city. Westcrman equalled this 166 June, 1924 The Spectrum record last year. Prendergast was high-point man with 11J4 points. Summary 100-yard dash—Prendergast. (J); Finch, (O. A. C.) : Martin.

ATHLETIC REVIEW Never before in the history of the school have so many athletes graduated at one time as in the June 1924 class. Beginning next fall, the teams will present a large number of new faces. Only one-half the football and basketball teams will be back next year, about one-third of the track team, and two-thirds of the baseball team. Therefore, it seems appropriate to give here a review of the sports dur- ing the four years that these athletes have been in school at Jefferson, starting in September, 1920. when the mem- bers of the June '24 class first came to the school, and finishing with the basketball season just past. The members of the June class entered the school just in time to see Jefferson’s most unfortunate football. This team with no lettermen from the year before was able to win only one 167 The Spectrum June, 1924 game out of seven. The basketball team did creditable work and won a majority of its games. The track team of ’21 carried off the track meet with comparative ease. The baseball squad tied with Franklin for first place. 'l'lie fall of 1921 saw a good football team at Jefferson, but a big blow was received when Walt Kelsey was hurt so that be was out of the game all season. The team was slow in getting started, but once started, it could not be defeated. Four games were won in a row. The basket- ball team of that year was one of the best ever turned out here. It was composed of Hutchinson, Westerman, An- derson, Broughton, and G. Mimnaugh. No team in the High School League could defeat it. though some hard and prolonged battles ensued before it emerged supreme. The baseball team tied with Lincoln for first honors and copped the championship in the play-off. The track meet in 1922 was one of the closest ever staged on Multnomah Field. Jefferson won the meet by the score of 58 as opposed to 53V2 points for Washington, Jefferson's closest rival. Breaks and hard luck kept down the football team in 1922. After winning three games the Democrats lost to James John and Franklin by the mere matter of 3 and 1 points respectively. The basketball team of that year also had some tough luck and lost three of its games, one of them by one point. The baseball team won three games and lost three. The track team of 1923 was the best balanced team ever turned out at Jefferson. Eighteen men won 68 points, which is the largest score ever run up by a track team in Portland. The football team was the best since 1919, and made a very creditable showing, losing but one game of the nine played. The score of 0-6 with Washington shows how near we came to winning the championship. The basketball team of 1923-4 showed up very good in the pre-season games, but seemed to slump during the regular season. However, the team came to life now and then and played “like a house a-fire.” Although the base- ball team has played only one game, and the track team has not yet competed with the other schools of the city, never- theless, we feel certain that their outcome will reflect credit on the school. FINAL GAME OF JUNE-JAN. BASKETBALL SERIES June Class 22-January Class 2 P oth coaches. Smith and Flegcl. appeared nervous as each team was credited with one victory. The June team, however, appeared to have a strong scoring combination 168 June, 1924 The Spectrum and found the hoop readily. After the first whistle the June team started scoring and were never threatened by the January class until the third quarter, when Nyree shot the only basket made by the January team. Grossmayer, Wetzel, Ashby and Dunlap were in the limelight for the June class with Fries, O’Hara and Martin playing a nice guarding game. Nyree, Soule and Edwards played nice ball for the January class. Coach Flegel left the floor with tears in his eyes, while Coach Smith appeared overjoyed. Mr. Johnston was acclaimed by both teams as the best timekeeper in captivity. The line-ups: JUNE- —22 JANUARY—2 Dunlap Points 6 F Soule Point .. 0 Grossmaver . . .

Going- over to his victim he apologized. “O come,” he said soothingly, “you shouldn’t take it to heart because I asked you if you were raised in a barn.” “That’s it, that’s it,” sobbed the other man. “I was raised in a barn, and it makes me homesick every time I hear a donkey bray.” ATTENTION, YE CIVIC STUDENTS!
