THE COMMISSION A ' ; time passes, schools as well as states and nations chanp:e their form of govern- ment and administration. The administration of high ; chools has un lergone a marked change in the last few years. The reasons for this are two. In the first place, there has been an extraordinary growth in the number of students enrolled in the high school. In the second p ' ace, courses of study ha e multiplied, and student activities ha e become greatly diversified. The result is that the adminis- trative staff of the high scliool has to be greatly increased to take care of the addi- tional burdens. Some communities have failed to see the necessity of this, and as a consequence their schools are in a condition of chronic breakdown. I ' riction and dissatisfaction with reference to the schotds is a constant condition in such com- munities. This increase in the staff consists not only in an additional number of stalf executives; it also means an increase in the number of clerical assistants. Aside from the growth in the volume of administrative work to be dtuie in scIkjoI, it cannot be done effectively unless members of the administrative stalf specialize in various phases of it. ()ur own adnu ' nistrative organization is a gcoJ illustration of this. Our executives, both tacitiv and by assignment, are speciali -ed Continued on page 12 8 ENGLISH AND CUAIIVIERCIAL DEPARTMENTS -Clou-, D.ilev. Hamill. Gilpin, BruiiEhlon. B ' amiiin. Hum.

THE COMMISSION Continued from page 1 2 tional curricula and to supervise instruction in the field of vocational education. The Personnel Director is a relatively new officer in the school, whose service to the school and community has already become vital. He supervises the prepara- tion of records which contain data concerning all sorts of factors in the personal lives of students while they are passing through school. Schools for a long time have had scholarship records but many other personal qualifications were not made a matter of routine. It is, also, the duty of the Personnel Director to keep in touch with industry and to locate students who are leaving the school in suitable places in industry. The Dean of Girls supervises all the social activities of the institution. She has broad functions in the guidance of the lives of girls and is a confidential advisor to them in difficult personal problems. It is, also, her duty to guard the health of girls in the institution and to stimulate the development of a sound school spirit among them. The latest executive specialization to occur in the school is that of the Director of Extra-Curricular Activities. These student activities have grown so much in volume and variety that they demand special attention of an executive to look after them. It is recognized that these special activities of students furnish opportunities for educational development of the highest order. At the same time students must be protected from going into excess in them. In this regard a sane development is the end to be striven for. mm The growth of our administrative staff has given rise to the necessity of a change of office organization. Recent years has caused the necessity for remodeling of the offices. This in turn has provided an opportunity to reorganize office pro- cedure. As is well known in the institution the administrative features of office work is concentrated in the east end of the general office. The work pertaining particularly to the management of student matters is centralized in the west end of the office. It is here that the scholarship and personnel records are taken care of. There is gro ing up in our organization a very excellent form of student account- ing. The aim in this matter is to put on record anything which can be redviced to writing that is significant in the life and growth of students. Not only do we have well-worked out scholarship records but, as mentioned above, a systematic plan for keeping personnel ratings and personnel records. The work of the Advisory Com- mission would be relatively ineffective without this office organization and this comprehensive system of records. Many of the members of the Commission, in addition to the duties mentioned above, have administrative and supervisory responsibility as regards the various de- partments. Some of the members of the Commission ser e as the heads of depart- ments in which they alm ' nister the curriculum as well as the equipment and supplies which pertain to it. They furnish the immediate point of contact bet •ccn the administration and the department. But the division of labor referred to above is not the only function of the administrative officers of the school. They, also, constitute the Advisory Com- mission whose function is to consider the interest of the school in general. One of the most important benefits of this Commission consists in the fact that its members are in touch with all phases of school life and are in immediate relationship with members of the faculty. This c ' o:e relationship that the Commission bears to the life of the school as a whole enables the a Iministrative officers to serve the school and the community more effectively, ( n the other hand, the student body and the members of the faculty have a better understanding of the plans and purposes of the administration, since there is an organized body of executives who have carefully studied these plans and purposes. In a word, the outstanding benefit of the Advisory Commission is that it ties the who ' e school together into a more compact unit. Finally, it should be said that the development of the commission form of admi ' iis- trative organization in our school is unique. Ours was the first high schcol to develop this type of organization. Its advantages are so marked that the plan is being inaugurated in other schools. 52 JUNIDRJ t JDPNElllDRtl Jn ii mnmm Born March .i, 1Q06 Died No--v. 23, 1924 Ulliplma SjFmn Born August 4, IQJQ Died lunnary 2, 192i Sobrrt Milfrpfi iKitndt Born April lb, 1029 Died December 2, 1024 (Eaaimtr (Slatkauiakg Born July 2S, 10 9 Die J D cember i, 1924 o LITERARY mii mm ' ' HE CAME, HE SAW, HE CONQUERED Margaret Masterson, ' 25 Hello, Lou. Sa} ' , that was some speech you just made at the pep meelhi . You sure are the star at that. Thanks, Bob. Lou returned, abstractedly and continued her a - down the corridor, but Bob was persistent, refusing to be cast off so unmercifully. Say Lou, ah er , a where are }ou going? Why home, of course, sill -. Gee, I forgot! Yes, I guess ou did. Honestly, Bob, you do ask the funniest questions some- times. Do L really? Nothing short of it. By this time they had reached Lou ' s locker. Bob diligently helped her on with her coat, and when her back was turned toward him, Lou winked at one of the other girls nearby. She, in turn, laughed, for it was a big joke around school the way Bob followed Lou around, just like a pet dog. Thanks awfully. Bub. 1 must run along now. ' B e. Good-bye, Lou, Lll see ou tomorrow. Lou Lanier ran off to meet her girl friends, and eventual!} ' to wander down town ; but Bob Lake stood there a moment, admiring the disappearing figure. Then he heaved a big sigh and sorrowfully said, Boy! She ' s sure wonderful, but she ' s not for me. Now, I had no more intention of asking her where she was going than flying. What I realU wanted to ask was if she had a date for the Junior College Play or not, but I couldn ' t get the nerve. Oil! Vhat ' s the use? Lm sure a big fizzle. And he wandered off. Lou Lanier was one of the most popular girls at Carnegie High School, and she had the reputation of being a good sport and an all-round girl. She was jovial, congenial, witty, and clever. No one was refused help if they asked for it, whether it was a case of personal interest or cooperation in some school acti ity. She c ould do anything that she tried, and she naturally became one of their leaders. She was an athletic girl, excelling in basketball, and her strong support of the school team never lagged. She was a model of the modern young American girl. Bob Lake was just the opposite. He was quiet and slow. He had tried out a couple of times for the football and basketball teams, but he was so laz ' that he had not gained a position on even the scrub team. He was a fairly brilliant student, but nothing astounding at all. There was one thing, however, that everyone who knew him, said was true of him, that he was a good sport, because he never spoke lightly of any other person and was always willing to do any little thing for him. Bob and Lou had met in their public-speaking class, and it wasn ' t long before Bob was attracted to Lou. She liked him as an acquaintance, but, as an escort to any of the school parties, she couldn ' t even dream of such a thing. ' 68 pma 11 Thus Bob tagged after Lou every day for about three months. About that time, he was beginning to wake up, and he realized what kind of a show he was making of himself by acting that way. He decided to put her out of his life and forget it all, but it surely was a hard thing to do. It was realK one of the most trying periods of Bob ' s existence. Thus it came about that Bob no longer walked with Lou to her locker or went out of his way to do an thing for her. They continued to speak but only in a cool tone that belied their true feelings. It really cost Bob something to act like this for Lou held more than a little corner of his heart; and even L:iu felt sorry at the turn of events. She missed Bob ' s little attentions and admiring loo ' s, for hat girl can deny that she doesn ' t like them. Lou, howe ' er, never mentioned it to anyone, for she knew they wouldn ' t understand and would only laugh. Basketball practice started and as usual Bob went out f(u- it. This was an annual event for Bob. He usually lasted until the third sifting of the squads, and no k)nger. It wasn ' t that Bob wasn ' t good, but he was so aggravating!) slow about doing anything. Each ear the coach tried to wake him up and to develop the fellow ' s natural knack fcjr handling the ball and making baskets, but every year after a few trials the coach stopped trying to move him. It was apparentlv so use- less. This year the coach again tried to have Bob to do his best, and he agreed to, but saying and doing are two difierent things. It seemed as if Bob never would put his good intention into action. All right, there, fellows, I ' m going to sift the bunch again. Those that will again report for practice are: Bill Houston, Earl Rapper, Jim McCarthy, Joe Byler, Ernest Johnson, Fred Conner, Tom Shread, Ra B an, Chuck Laner, Bob Prophey and Bob Lake. Well, old graveyard, what ever happened? asked Tom Shread laughingly as he slapped Bob on the shoulder. Why this is the first time you ever lasted through the final sifting. Not that I ' m not glad, for if ycju ' d just get going, ou ' d make a first class forward, and we need one. Aw, dry up! grinned Bob and ambled off. I say. Bill, if old Bob would pep up he ' d be some forward, Tom said, as he turned to his chum. Bill Houston. ' es, ; ' , but, you ' ve got as much chance of waking him up as you ha e of becoming an Evangelistic minister, answered Bill. That ' s all right, but just the same, he ' s good. The first game of tlie season came at the last week end before Christmas. The regulars quickly ran up the score against the visitius, who never once reached the standard of playing set by the locals. At the half the coach put in the substitutes. Bob Lake among them. He pla ed well, but that ' s all that could be said. He lacked determination, the main feature, that is preached by every coach and by every speaker at pep meetings. Christmas vacation came. During the holiday, Jack Williams, Bob ' s cousin, came to visit him. He was a Junior at Dartmouth, a nice dresser, good-looking and ■fc am 69 11 :i good dancer, just what girls like. The next da ' , Jack took Bob to Chicago, incidentally, to see a show but really to help bu ' him some new clothes. Of course, Bob did not know this and wondered why they were going up on such an early train. When they arrived in Chicago, Jack voiced his intention of getting a suit, pretending that it was for himself. He was able to do this, for they were both the same size. I ' hey went to the Hub, and Jack decided on a dark blue suit, double-breasted, English cut, with the straight bottomed vest. Then came all the accessories. Powder blue broadcloth shirt, ties of slanting stripes of a dull gold and blue, pongee handkerchief with a blue border, tan oxfords, Prince of Wales hat of gray, a grayish blue overcoat and a scarf. In the afternoon they went to the State and Lake theatre. That night, when back home again. Jack gave everything to Bob and told him to wear them and to look like something. But as a price for his assistance Jack said Bob must promise not to pay any more attention to Lou at least for a month. Bob promised, never dreaming how hard it was going to be. January fifth, Bob went to school dressed in his new finery. Before noon every- one was talking about it, and Lou noticed with a little pang, that he was not at all hard to look at. Bob knew what everyone was saying, for he saw their quizzical glances. Girls spoke to him more cordially and really seemed to notice him with interest. But this onh ' lasted about two weeks, for then everyone had become accus- tomed to the change, and things went on as before. Bob had pla ed in three more basketball games but as yet had done nothing to make himself noticeable. He wrote to Jack and told him that everything was just the same. Jack answered right away and told him to keep up faith that it would come out all right soon, and to be sure and let him know as soon as possible if there were any changes. Lately Lou had begun to realize what a nice fellow Bob was. She noticed his pleasing personality, winning smile, nice appearance, and clean cut features. She used many little tricks to have him pay attention to her again. Bob bra ely and sternly resisted, determined to go through with the course that Jack had mapped out. Three weeks of this procedure caused Lou to fear Bob was giving his attention to some one else, and she almost gave up in despair, thinking that it was no use. Bob, however, was beginning to weaken. He realized how much he liked her, and it was pretty hard not to accept the friendship she seemed to be ready to gi e. About a week later, one of the girls from school gave a party, and accidentally, both were present. During the fun. Bob and Lou became quite friendl ' again as Bob ' s sentence of a month was at last over. Lou readily agreed to Bob ' s offer of escorting her home, and with this all unfriendly barriers were washed away. mt 70 ] 1 ■ill When Bob reached his hciiiie finall , he was elated. He resolved to show Lou what was really in him, and in that way, win her complete approval. The ne.xt daj- he made good his resolution, studying hard and being wide awake and alert at all his classes, as though he were interested in life. Lou was also happy, as anyone could have told by looking at her bright e es and smile. At basketball practice everyone noticed Bob ' s speed in getting around the floor and making baskets. The few who had got in on the news winked knowingly, and secretly told the others. He was kidded by everyone, but because he was so happy, even this did not make him lose his temper. The ne.xt da -, Frida , there was great excitement. It was the day of the Edger game. Bob had no intention of pla ing, but oh! what he would have given to be able to. At about six o ' clock, he called Lou and asked her for a date for the Alaroon and Gold Club Dance. She accepted, and Bob almost had to be chained down to keep his feet on the earth. During the second quarter of the game. Bill Hcjuston, the star forward, was seriousU injured. I ' he onl - other man for the place was Bob. The coach sent him in. Bob thanked his luck stars, and set his mind on winning the game. The score was close, for the game was one of the hardest of the season, but at the end Carnegie held the big end. Bob had made three field-goals and two free-tosses. The fellows flashed around Bob to congratulate him, but all he thought of was how this would win for him Lou ' s complete apiiro al. As soon as possible he went to the Western Union Telegraph office and sent Jack a flying message. She ' s won. Got place on first team. Thanks old chap. Bob.

' 25 ' ' Take it easy, son, take it easy, you ' ll — The running youth paid no attention to the spectator ' s remark. He va leading hi neare, t opponent by fifteen yards, and only two laps remained. Me smiled grim ' y. He ' d show them! What if Parkman of Bradley, acknowledged state chani|i ' n the hijih school ranks iur the mile, was pitted against him? The same Parkman w ho for two ears had made Kent taste the bitterness of defeat ! Both tjiies Kent had leJ until the last quarter and then had given way before the ru: h of tlie Bradle ' ite. But this time — and he grinned shrewdl ' — he ' d show them! It felt good to he ahead, and he sneered cerisively as he pictured Pari. man, fifteen yards lehinJ him, with pain-contorted features and faltering stride. And — .1 -.2 1- 2 and (,nl a quarter to go, someone was elling on the sidelines, ' ' Ilu.t Icllow will crack sure! ' 1 lie smile on the youth ' s face froze into a loo ' ; of appreliension. What if this fehow were right. Only another lap! But what could happen in that time! A spra ned ankle, a pulled temlon, a cramp and what not. And the lime — .1:24 2 5 ior three quarters of a mil;! Nope, he couldn ' t keep it up. But — he asked himself — uh) not slow up a little, just take it easy for a while? Pie was possessing a snug lead- lie hnished third. But diat was even more bitter than defeat was the sight of Nora Bryant congratulating Parkman on his victory. And not a word for him! Nora whi.m he had known since childhood, and whom he regarded in a light e en closer than friendship. Nora Bryant of Holmes High congratulating Parkman of I]radle ! With a stifled sob he turned and wended his way to the dressing room. Thus it had always been with him. A bit slow in the half, but a terror in the 1. nger distance if he could but maintain his pace for the last quarter. In (jther v(,rds, the best little pacemaker to carry his teammates along and then let them fin!;h ahead of him. That was wh ' the coach had retained him, and that was win he had entered him in the Interscholastic. At first he had been jubilant. But Nora ' s sarcastic So you ' re going, too! had sobered him. ' es, that hurt. A week before the meet the coach called him and said, See here, Kent, ' ou know that the winning of this meet is something more than a personal matter to you athletes, don ' t ' ou ? Certainl , returned the bo , wonderingly. It ' s for Holmes that we ' re to work. That ' s right. For Holmes! And every man can ' t win, you know. Yes, sir, said Kent. Athletics call for a sacrifice, my boy. And if e er man helps, the team can win, replied the mentor. ' es, Kent agreed, apprehensively. 73 liii ()U can ' t win the mile, the coach mutti red haishl . No. you haven ' t a chance. But you can help Hohiies. Gree e is shuwintr iorm but does not travel the first three quarters in less than 3 -JO. W ' e ' r - depending on you to pull him along, and then do as ou see fit. Kent could not ha e spoken to sa e his life. So that was it. A pacemaker! But he did manage to n(jd, and the coach muttered something under his breath about a darn fine lad. The testing time came. Holmes had taken the centur and the quarter mile. Bradley had nosed out her ri als in the half and the 220, and, both teams being weak in the field events, it was predicted that ictor for Holmes or Bradley depended upon the mde riui. I ' welve lads toed the mark, but all eyes were centered on a lithe athlete wearing the red of Bradley. The gun barked for the mile. I)eftl -, with (jreele ' at his elbow, Kent picked his way through the crowding athletes. BLit a figure in red pulled up to them, and, gaining the pole, surged into the lead. Kent maintained a pace that he knew would bring them to the three quarter mark before the 3 :.iO was up. He was satisfied. That was all that was expected of him, and, besides, he dul not want to blow Greeley. Greeley, whom he was now pacing, antl who would be the onh Holmes man left to threaten Parkman in the last lap! A flash of green and Baer of Sumner had passed the Holmes men, and was fol- lowing in Parkman ' s wake. Kent ' s chest ached, and his legs felt heav as lead. Thank God, after the three laps were over, he could settle into his habitual jog and perhaps finish fourth. 3:23 3 5, yelled a Holmes man, stationed at the mark. After them Kent! Kent sneered. Think he was ,i fool. ' ' But — he grinned shrewdly — Greeley who had a wonderful, dn ing finish would bring Holmes victory. Greeley, he mut- tered o ' er his shoulder, After them, old man! No reply nor sound of footsteps. Kent ' s heart sank. Greeley had pulled a tendon, and even now was limping badly, iift yards behind him. And Parkman was on his way to another win? No use! He was beaten again! He looked at the finish 200 yards away. The Holmes and Bradley rooters were assembled in a mob, and — God, there was Nora! Kent gritted his teeth. Wanted to congratulate Parkman again, did she? Well, by thunder, he ' d show some speed if it killed him! He passed Baer as though the latter were anchored. Twenty yards before him, he could see a red jersey bobbing up and down derisively. The Holmes band struck into the school song. Kent actually increased his pace. They were playing the old reliable — The (lold and Blue . The Holmes sec- tion was cheering! And — and, it was Kent the were cheering! Chick Kent! They were cheering him — those Holmes men in the stands! Him, Chick Kent! And did any Bradleyite think he could put it o er on Chick Kent when the band was playing and the Holmes rooters in the stands were cheering, and — He ' d show that guy Parkman ! Fifty yards from the tape and he was within a icot of the Bradley runner. rf 74 nil Desperately he strove to make up the gap. Reeling, staggering he kept on. The tape loomed in the distance and seemed to he scowling at him — taunting him. Well, he ' d break it! What was this? Oh, that was Parkman ' s shoulder. And what was he to do? Win, of course. Oh, tlint was it. Win! What a nice word. Win! There — ly, that track was rough — but he had to win — promised the coach to help Holmes — yeah, to help Holmes — all that — had to do it — didri ' t know why — and what did they want these lights for? — flashing, surging lights that danced round and round — something touched his chest and gave way — had to sleep — had to — the coach — a darn fine lad — Kent awoke to find Nora confronting him. Gosh, didn ' t the sun make that golden hair shine — but where was Parkman I Say, Kent, called one of the judges. Better come over and get your medal. Kent looked at the judge and then at Nora. The judges had lots of time. And besides, Nora was worth her weight in medals ! CAMPING The red sun is sinking far down in the west. It is guilding the tree tops where birds are at rest. The dark woods are like golden surrounding the lake. The blue water is glassy without any break. The darkness is creeping from out of the trees And slowly surrounding the men at their ease. A camp fire is lighted before .a small tent, The men o ' er their supper are eagerly bent. The clinking of dishes has gradually ceased. And the hungry cry of the dogs decrease. From out of the darkness red embers are glowing. And it seems a huge firefly his lantern a-tow- ing. Gray shadows are resting beneath the trees, A night wind begins to rustle the leaves. And one by one till they have all departed. Each one is tiredly seeking his bed. The white moon is making his nightly climb, I will keep close watch of these charges of mine. And nothing shall harm then or come nigh, While I am on duty up in the sky. .IT 75 Vie ' rrjainsta E s ' tVier Our Eai-t-c JLand ■X)on+ Ac hS ' -J Z- ' «itTlng -4- ?=5=. -ir c ' _ TTI ney Groes U3S- ALL FOR A GIRL By Hazel Marion Conlon, ' 25 Jack Bellford was niithini; less tlian j loom p- rsoniiied as he stood in liis apart- ment, an electric flatirun in one hand and a pair of badl ' scorched trous ers in the other. The chance of a life time had come to him. Phoebe Anne had asked him to take her to the ball that her club was giving, and he was madly in love with Phoebe Anne. Fate seemed against him, however, for he had just sent his dress suit to the cleaners two days before the lady of his dreams had telephoned. It was true that she had asked him at the eleventh hour, so to speak, but what of it? Jack knew of a perfectly authentic authority on good manners that said, Though you may be invited at the last minute to ' fill in ' , do not refuse but accept with good grace and the next time you may be asked first. And besides, this was Phoebe Anne. And so he had promised to take her. He had not thought of his suit until after he had hung up. How could a person think of anything else when talking to this charming young lady? He just naturally couldn ' t ; so Jack must be forgi en. The fact that his good suit was at the cleaners was not going to keep him from this dance; so he had dragged forth one of his old suits that could be ■orn in a pinch, borrowed his landlady ' s board and iron, and attempted to press it. And those sad looking, badly scorched trousers were the result! Jack put the iron down, none too gently, and threw the trousers into a far corner of the room. He sat down then, and, frowning deeplw began to think. Of course he might call Phoebe up and tell her he was too sick to go, but that was such an old gag, and furthermore, he didn ' t want to miss the dance himself! It wouldn ' t do anyway, he told himself, for although Phoebe Anne was quite the darling that her name implied when all went well, she became a ver modern little spit-fire when things did not go her way. His goose would be cooked, over done in fact, if he turned her down. No indeed, go he must if he had to steal a suit! Ah ! That last thought had put an idea into his head ! Why under the shining heavens hadn ' t he thought of it before? Jimmie iVIason, the young man who occu- pied the apartment across the hall, was out of town on his acation, had been gone a week and probably wouldn ' t be back for another week. He was just Jack ' s build too. Why not borrow his suit? Of course, they were not on the best of terms, due to the fact that Jimmie too had fallen for Phoebe Anne, as had man}- others, and was not among those least favored. Well, that wouldn ' t make any difference, because Jimmie would never find it out. And so it happened that Jack Bellford, feeling much as he imagined a safe cracker on his first job must feel, crossed the hall softly in tennis shoes, carrying a chair. He deposited this very useful article in front of Mason ' s door, and, after listening carefully for a brief second, stepped up on it and softly pushed on the transom. Fate wasn ' t so very much against him after all, for he found it to be open. After a few seconds he had wriggled through and landed softly on the other side. 77 1 Good heavens! What was that. He crouched against the door straining his ears, holding his breath, his heart pounding as though it were going to burst! Yes, just as he iiad thought; someone was coming up the stairs! His brain was working rapidly now. If whoever that was saw the chair he would immediately think that burglars had gotten in. He would call for assistance, the door would be burst open, and he would be discovered! He had a mental vision of himself in a prison cell. Again he listened. The footsteps grew nearer and nearer. Suddenly he heard a oice that he recognized as the landlady ' s. My stars! I wonder if Nora will ever put things back where she finds them. Here she brought this chair out here to stand on to clean the transom, and there it stands! She never can remember a thing. I wonder that she even remembered to clean the transom. My dear, said another female voice, there is no such thing as a perfect servant these days. And as Jack listened the foosteps became fainter and finally could no longer be heard. He breathed a deep sigh of relief and then set about his work. This seemed rather like passing the buck to Nora, he decided, but he ' d ease his conscience on that matter by tipping her generously the next da . With the aid of a flashlight that he had brought with him he managed to find the clothes closet. The first thing he saw upon opening the door was a dress siut. Lad Luck was certainh playing on is side! He took it hastily and crossed softly to the door. He found th,-it the door could be opened from the inside without any key. He opened the door and ran into the hall, falling headlong over the chair that he had left there. Although it had made but a slight noise it sounded like an earth- quake to him. He rushed into his own room, shut the door softly, and listened. No sound. He had expected the whole household to come dashing up to find out who was getting murdered. At last, when he considered it safe, he reopened the door, crossed the hall softly, and closed Mason ' s door. He then picked up his chair and returned to his own room. The suit was a perfect fit. In fact it looked as though it were made for him, so well did it fit! It had certainh caused him enough trouble and suspense. But then, Plioi he Anne was worth it. Wh he would jump off the Wrigle ' building with si is if he thought it would give her pleasure! At eisjht forty-fi ' e he was standing at the door of the Kainsly mansion. He wa- admitted by a blank lonking butler who informed him that Miss Phoebe would he down in a moment. Although he was fifteen minutes late he waited ;i full half hour before Phoebe Anne appeared. How like her, he thought, to make him wait. Well, she couldn ' t bother him that way because he ' d wait a million years for her. Greetings, Jackie, old Top, lier ( ice ended his reverie, Sorry to keep you waiting. Did Jimmie get back () K.: Didn ' t mind waiting a bit. |:nini!e. ' ' fimmie who? ; 78 l f ' a 11 Why, Jimmie Mnsoii, silly, you must lu- tcnihly iu ' i ;hbiiil up at that apart- nu ' iit of yours. Enis asked him to take her and he wasn ' t sure whether he could }i,i-t back to town in time or not but he ' d try awfully hard. ( )f course, I thoutrht you ' d know, li in j; just across from you as he does. Jackie scarely knew whether he was on earth or in the air as he dnne out t(j the club. His brain was busy trying to think up a plan of escape if Jimmie did tuin u|i. It would b.e just like him to take ad antage of the chance to (jueer Jack with Phoebe Anne. Of course he ' il recognize the suit. Jack wouldn ' t blame him for being sore, he would feel rather sore himself if someone had done the same t j him. But to be humiliated in front of Phoebe Anne! No! He ' d tlie first! Saw gloom, did i)ur grandmother die or are you coming down with the measles? asked the lad ' who was uppermost in his thoughts. Neither, Jack laughingly assured her. Why? Well, you ' re about as talkati e tonight as a mum;ii . Cheer up and chase the gloom clouds! And he did, for who could he gloomy with this dashing bit of humanit at his side? He e en forgot that he had on borrowed clothes, borrowed without the owner ' s consent. He forgot that such a person as Jimmie Mason existed. He forgot every- thing except that the girl he adored was sitting beside him. Jack was spending the most wonderful evening of his life. How proud he was of his partner! He had never seen Phoebe Anne look more beautiful. She was dressed in a beautiful flame colored evening gown, a flimsy thing with no sign of a sleeve, and gorgeously trimmed with flame colored ostrich feathers. Her black hair lay in delightful little wa es all o er her head. He found himself comparing her large blue e es to starlit pnols. Strange how p;ietic a man ' s thoughts can become when he is with the woman of his choice! {)h. Jack, here ' s Enis and Jimmie! Let ' s go meet them. Jack ' s heart turned a complete somersault, made a xild dive, and landed in his highly-polished pumps. Sure enough there they were! And Phoebe Anne was pull- ing him over to them. Golly, I ' m hot! Let ' s go out on the balcon - for a while and look them up afterward. It was the only tiling he could think of. Well, come along then. Just as you say — this time! But next time (iurs truh ' gets her way! And Jack laughingly promised that she would. He certainh had not lied when he told her that he was hot. He felt as though he «as burning up. The perspiration dropped in large drops from his forehead. This certainly was a deuce of a mess! He was bound to meet Jimmie sooner or later. And then be began to wonder what the outcome to all this would be. An- other couple stepped out on the balcon ' . I say, there, you weren ' t trying to run away from us were oii ? Just saw you in time to see you disappearing through the door. It was Jimmie Lison ! Not at all, Jack responded, Just a bit hot, that ' s all. 79 Well then, supposing ()u loan Phoebe Anne to me for the next glide while you cool off. Enis says she won ' t mind. Oh, but I ' ve promised the next one to Jack, Phoebe Anne put in. That ' s all right, give him the next one; he won ' t care, will you, old top? Not at all! Jack responded, but under his breath he was cursing the luck th. ' it put him in such circumstances. Of course he cared! But h? couldn ' t str;p Jimmie from taking her awa - because he couldn ' t dance with her himself. If he went into the light he ' d be sure to recognize the suit, and ;o he had to sit the dance out with Enis ' oung while Jimmie Mason danced with Phoebe Anne! After what seemed hours to poor Jack the two returned. Say, how about the next one, can ' t ou manage to let nie ha e that cnc, too? Jimmie inquired the minute they came on to the dark balcony. And this time Phoebe Anne made no comments. I should sa ' not! What do you think this is, your birthday? Jack cxpIoJcd. He had at last decided to face the music. He wouldn ' t stand f or an one running off with his partner, espcciall not Jimmie Mason! The n; t one is going to be mine, and nobody else ' s! Right you are. Jack, Phoebe Anne upheld him. Next one ' s yours. Let ' s go in. And so the four of them entered the ball room. Jack was holding his breath, expecting to be told of the suit an minute now. He wondered how long he could stall off discovery. He had not long to wait, however, for the had scarcely entered the room when Jimmie spoke up. I say, old timer, I see you got the suit all right. This was as a death blow to Jack, but he decided to come out with the truth. Maybe Phoebe Anne would not be hard on him. Hut if Jimmie was spiteful enough to have him arrested that would be the end of life for him! Well he ' d take a chance anyway. He whirled about and faced Jinunie with determination in his eyes. Yes, I did, and what of it? Why nothing at all except that ou weren ' t home when they brought it home from the cleaners and I had just got in, so 1 took it and hung it in my room. 1 told the landlady to tell you and that you ' d find the kc - under the mat. A full - glad she didn ' t forget! SPRING Suirdy liltle slips of green Are coming from the earth Tow ' ring rtees and mighty rocks Tremble at their hirth.

Cramer was well liked by those he coached, and it is due to his faithful work that the Joliet Township High School has obtained the athletic standing which it has today. Cramer came here at a time when athletics was ' on the decline in Joliet. He quickly took steps to build up an athletic standing of which Joliet would be proud, and at the end of four years of hard work succeeded in doing that which he started to do. Now after finishing that which he considered his duty, he hears the call of the business world and feels that he can not resist its appeal; so he is leaving the coaching position in favor of insurance. The entire school wishes the coach all the luck in the world in his new place and hopes he will succeed as well in the business world in winning friends as in his athletic surround- ings. The players that Coach Cramer trained, deeply appreciate his faithful work which succeeded in spite of all difficulties, and they will never forget the influence he held which will make them more successful in their chosen professions in the years to come. HEAVYWEIGHT LETTER MEN Capt. Bernie Girard — an accurate fon ard passer and one of the most depend- able basket-ball guards that Joliet has ever had, he sureh ' deserved a place on the all-conference team. Capt.

George Girard — a good alternate at tackle on this year ' s football team and with I M. 82 his brother, Bernie, made une of the best basket-ball defensive combinations in North- ern Illinois. Vance Cummins — Tessie was picked as end on the all-conference football team and played a steady game at both forward and center during the basket-ball season. Charles Rainville — a great forward pass receiver and a basket-shooter of no mean ability. Chuck deserves a place on one of the first all-conference teams. Donald Munch — Who has prospects of becoming a good quarterback next year and whose work on this year ' s basket-ball team was noteworthy. Constantine Bertino — although only weighing 127 pounds he was never out- played at center during the whole football season. Stuart Robs on — A fast man on end runs; he pla ed a consistent game at halfback. Walter Schneiter — was developed from a tackle to a halfback during the season. He quickly developed into one of the hardest-driving halfbacks in the conference. Harold Howell — Spuds was one of the best all round guards Joliet has ever had. His stellar playing earned him a place on the all-conference eleven. Allan Ward — A fast tackle ; Al was sure to be the first man back of the opponents ' line. Perry McClure — Tackle, played a consistent game throughout the season. Robert Hershbach — Substitute center was a big help to the secondary defense on forward passes. Charles Hanus — Chuck ' s most noteworthy act during the year was the win- ning of the Glenbard game in the last few minutes by a great catch of a forward pass. Stanley Jones — A good guard was kept from being headlined only by being sick a great part of the season. nil ©o HEAVYWEIGHT FOOTBALL After three weeks of hard practice, Joliet played a practice football game with Thornton High. The day was hot and sultry, and neither team showed surplus pep. Thornton obtained a 1.5 to lead by the end of the third quarter, but a long forward pass to Rainville gave Joliet a touchdown, following which Schneiter kicked goal, making the score, Thornton, l,i; Joliet 7, which was the final score. Glenbard came to Joliet the next Saturday and engaged Joliet in an exciting game, the outcome of which was decided only in the last few minutes by a pretty catch of a high pass by Hanus behind Glenbard ' s goal ; Joliet scored early when Cummins fell on a blocked punt behind the goal line. Bourg ' s kick was blocked behind Joliet ' s goal, giving Glenbard two points, making the score at the half, Joliet, 7; Glenbard, 2. A lateral pass gave Glenbard a touchdown in the third quarter and put them into a 9 to 7 lead. Then, with only three minutes to play, Hanus won the game with a running catch of a forward pass, the final score being Joliet, 13 ; Glenbard, 9. The next week the conference season opened against Dekalb at Joliet. The game was a fight from start to finish. Joliet outplayed Dekalb throughout the first three quarters and scored a touchdown as the result of one of Girard ' s long passes to Cummins. Dekalb came back strong in the final quarter and succeeded in tying Joliet traveled to Rockford the following Saturday, where they lacked pep and were therefore beaten 23 to 0. pT West Aurora c ame to Joliet and obtained a 13-to-O lead before Joliet got started. Joliet showed much fight in the last quarter and succeeded in putting over one touchdown and were on their way to the second when the gun went off giving West Aurora the game, 13 to 7. Uernie Girard scored Joliet ' s touchdown after a long forward pass to Keele - and another to Robson had brought the ball down the field. Freeport ' s undefeated team came to Joliet for the next game. Joliet ' s team was keyed up to a high pitch and played the best football seen in Joliet in years. They showed more determination to win than any other Joliet football team has ever shown. Joliet went into the game with everything to win and nothing to lose. They stopped Freeport ' s wonder backfield cold, and in the first few minutes Allan Ward picked up a fumble and ran for a touchdown only to find that a Joliet man had been ofi side. In the second quarter Keeley, Joliet right end, dashed behind Freeport ' s line, intercepted a pass and ran over sixty yards for a touchdown. The kick for goal was missed. Joliet ' s attack continued, and they swept down the field to the one yard line only to be stopped by Freeport ' s desperate line. Freeport kicked, and Joliet regained possession of the ball only to be stopped by the gun at half time, the score then being Joliet, 6 ; Freeport, 0. Freeport came back strong, and both teams battled in mid-field throughout the third quarter, and Joliet went into the final quarter still leading 6 to 0. Freeport brought the ball down to the thirty-yard yard line from where a pass was thrown in the general direction of Paul, crafty Free- port end. The ball was batted down by Robson and hit the ground where Paul fell on it, and the referee ruled it a touchdown. The crowd in the bleachers had seen the ball touch the ground, and they protested vigorously, so did the team, but it did no good. Brooks kicked goal, and Freeport was leading 7 to 6. Joliet was fighting mad and took the ball and swept down the field as the result of forward passes to the twenty-five-yard line from where Schneiter put over a beautiful place :85 kick from a difficult angle, putting Joliet again in the lead 9 to 7. Freeport received the ball and threw a forward pass to their left halfback who shook of two tacklers and ran to the twenty-five-yard line before he was stopped. Brooks dropped back and kicked the winning points with less than four minutes to play, the final score being, Freeport, 10; Joliet, 9. Freeport went through the rest of the season without a defeat and won the Conference Channpionship. Freeport had a clean bunch of fellows. The next game was with East Aurora at Aurora. Joliet scored early as the result of forward passes to Keeley and Cummins and a quarterback sneak by Girard. A long pass to Keeley and another to Cummins gave Joliet their second touchdown of the half. The second half saw Aurora come back strong and go the length of the field for a touchdown. Another pass to Keeley and Joliet was leading 20 to 7. A touchdown in the last minute gave East Aurora a score of 13 to Joliet ' s 20. The Joliet-Elgin game was an exceptionally good game, the score of Elgin 26, Joliet 7, does not show the closeness of the game. Joliet took the ball down the field for a touchdown immediately after the opening whistle by means of line smashes by Schneiter and forward passes to Keeley and Cummins. The score at the half stood, Joliet, 7 ; Elgin, 6. In the last half. Mills, one of the best forward pass receivers in the State, broke loose for three more touchdowns, making four in all, incidentally scoring all of Elgin ' s 2b points. This half was featured by Elgin ' s spread forward pass combination which Joliet could not stop. Kankakee was Joliet ' s next opponent. Touchdowns by Schneiter, Rain ille, Bourg, Keeley, and Cummins gave Joliet this game by a score of 4b to 6. On Thanksgiving, Crane was defeated 2o to 0. Rainville took Cummins ' place at end, due to the latter ' s injury and scored two touchdowns. The phuing of the backfield was very good in this game. 86 +ern j!v. 1-- Awe A oHer LIGHTWEIGHT FOOTBALL Joliet opened the season against the JMorris heav vveiglits and lost a heartrending game in the last 30 seconds 3 to 0. Dekalb, champions of ' lli came to Joliet and licked Joliet ' s green but fighting team 26 to 0. The Dekalb backfield could not be stopped, and their forward pass was too effective. Joliet put up a game fight against Rockford ' s bigger team, and if it had not been for a case of stage fright in the first quarter in which Rockford scored all their points, the Lights would have won, as they came back in the final half. After Smith, Joliet end, fell on a fumbled punt ; a pass, McCuUum to McGinnis, was good for a touchdown. McGinnis kicked goal, and the score stood Rockford 13, Joliet 7, which was the score at the end of the game despite a desperate comeback by Joliet. West Aurora defeated Joliet the following Saturda ' after a hard fought game, 6 to 0. Aurora ' s lone touchdown was made in the first half. Joliet lined up for this game with Smith, WoodrufT, and Moller forming the left side of the line, Awe at center, and Stern, Tripple, and Emanuelson on the right. McGinnis played quarterback, Kuhar and McKeever played the halves, with Brown at fullback. After outplaying Freeport the first half, Joliet dropped a 14 to game on their own field. Time and again in the first half line smashes by Kuhar, McKeever and Brown, and forward passes Brown to McGinnis brought the ball deep into Freeport ' s territory, but the Freeport line would hold, and tjie ball would be lost. End runs were responsible for both of Freeport ' s touchdowns. Joliet and East Auora battled to a nothing to nothing tie at Aurora the week following the Freeport game. The game was played in mid-field throughout almost the entire game, neither team threatening their oppnnents ' goal to any great extent. Both teams seemed to be playing a defensive game. The lightweiglits ' last game was at Elgin. The game was fast and open with both teams running the ends and passing. Early in the game Emmanuelson, Joliet halfback, broke louse for an 80 yard run. The score near the start of the 4th quarter was Elgin 13, Joliet 6. A long pass. Brown to Smith, was good for a big gain after which McGinnis took it over the goal line for a touchdown. On a bad pass McGinnis drop-kicked the tying point on the run. After a few plays Elgin recovered the ball on a blocked kick after which Elgin drop-kicked the points to give them the game 16 to 13. The Joliet team played a good game and deserve much credit. The lightweight letter men are : Douglas, Tripple, Moller, Awe, Stern, Kuhar, iVIcGinnis (Captain), Emmanuelson, Lennon, Smith, McKeever, H nd, Brown, Woodruff, McCallum, Longley, and Boyd. LIGHTWEIGHT BASKET-BALL The lightweight team opened their season against Lindblom. Joliet won in a slow game by an 11 to 7 score. Captain iV ' lcGinnis was the leading point scorer. The lightweights ' next game was with the fast Morris team. They defeated them after a good game, 20 to 15. Joliet played a return game with Morris at Morris and defeated them, 24 to 14, Dwyer, sub-forward, led the scoring with three baskets.

M M 89 a m bdJKLJ BdlL liTTER ] G HEAVYWEIGHT BASKET-BALL Joliet scored 141 points to their opponents ' liO. Three weeks of practice and then a game with a team that liad already played many games, Lindblom of Chicago. A rally in the last quarter by Lindblom was not enough to win, and Joliet won, 16 to 12. Joliet ' s second team played most of the game against Coal Cit - althcjugli Keeley was sent in long enough to sink 5 baskets, the final score being Joliet 18, Coal Cit - 6. Morris ' first defeat was at the hands of Joliet, 23 to 12. Joliet ' s jinx in the form of Earlville came to Joliet Frida night and .returned to their native town on the sliort end of a 17 to 5 game. Joliet took the bus to Morris the next night to engage Morris in a return game. Morris was hot in the first quarter and ran up an 8 to 2 score. At the half tlie score was 9 to 8 in favor of Joliet and with but two minutes to go the score stood tied at 15 all. Baskets by Rainville and B. Girard won the game 19 to 15. On the following Friday, Glenbard arrived and departed on the short end of a 24-to-19 score. After a good first half Joliet, weakened with substitutes had a close call. The conference opened against Dekalb at Dekalb. A close first half, and the, score stood Joliet 11, Dekalb 10. The third quarter ended with a 14-to-14 tie and with but fifteen seconds to go and the score tied at 18-all, Keeley took a pass from G. Girard, dribbled, and shot the winning basket as the g m went off giving Joliet the game, 20 to 18. After running up a 9-to-O score in the first quarter, Joliet was beaten in an overtime game by W. Aurora at Aurora, 21 to 2 . B. Girard starred f(jr Joliet with seven baskets and two free tlirows. Lake View came to Joliet on tiie following night. The same team that played a whole season in Chicago with onh one defeat, that being in the final game for the championship of Chicago, was defeated by Joliet, 17 to 12. This was the last game for Cummins, center on last year ' s five and forward during the first part of this year ' s schedule. B. Girard, former guard, took Cummins ' place and Bourg filled in the place vacated by Girard. Rockford came to Joliet with the record of never having been beaten by a Joliet basketball team. Joliet ' s team did not seem to know this and ran up a 1 5 to 5 score at the half through beautiful basket shooting. Rockford came back strong, but Joliet was not to be beaten this trip and won out by a 17 to 12 score. Joliet ' s guarding was nearly perfect. Joliet played its next game at Freeport with Freep(n-t ' s undefeated team. Fr;e- port ran up a 12 to 3 score before Joliet could get started and then baskets by Raia- ville and Keeley ran the score up to 13 to 10 at half time. The final period was filled with thrills. With the score tied at 14-all, Paul, Freeport center, scored a field goal and free throw to give Freeport a three-point lead. B. Girard was put out on fou s, and Munch replaced him. He immediately sunk two free throws to bring Joliet within one point of a tie. Freeport stalled, and Joliet tried desperately to brer.k it up. With but a few seconds to go Rainville sjiot from center; the hall shot trui ' , hit one side of the basket, bounced to the other side, and fell out giving Freepoit a 17-to-16 game. 91 Hlf jPHBWpnHnmrn «ti East Aurora was Joliet ' s next opponent. The game featured some pretty pass- ing by Joliet, but the Gold and Blue forwards could not locate the basket, and con- sequently only won by a 22 to 18 score. East Aurora put up a good game, although they were outpassed by their faster opponents. Harrison came to Joliet the following Friday determined to avenge last year ' s defeat and almost did, Joliet winning only 24 to 22 after a ragged game. Oak Park, at that time Suburban League leaders, came to Joliet and won a 24-to-20 game partly due to the high tension under which Joliet played the entire game. B. Girard was put out early in the first half after an argument with the ref . If Bernie had been in, the outcome would have been different as Joliet was leading, 11 to 10, at the half. Beat Elgin was on everybody ' s lips the week before the Elgin game. If Joliet had won they would go into a tie for second place with Elgin. Both teams played almost perfect ball. Elgin led at the half, 14 to 7, but Joliet immediately lowered the s core separating them from their opponents and were only one point behind by the end of the third quarter being on the short end of a 16-tol5 score. A free throw and two pretty baskets by Captain Keeley gave Joliet a 20-tol8 lead with but one minute to go. A backhand shot by Mills with but twenty-five seconds to go forced the game into overtime. Mills ' two baskets and two free throws by Hill, while Munch was making two free throws gave Elgin the game, 26 to 22. The playing of Munch, a newcomer, was a revelation. He sank nine of the team ' s 22 points. Joliet ' s first opponent in the district tournament was Blue Island ; Joliet easily -jmi iX defeated them, 39 to 15. The first team ran the score up to 29 to 1 1 and the second team, shooting and passing perfectly rang up 10 more points in the last quarter. Rainville starred with five baskets and three free throws. Joliet next defeated Dwight, 28 to 6. McGinnis, lightweight forward, starred with six baskets. After a clean hard-fought game Joliet emerged ictor over (Gardner, last year ' s champions, 19 to 9. Keeley was high point scorer. Joliet defeated Morris for the district championship in another close guarding game, 16 to 7. The basket shooting of Rainville and the guarding of the Girard brothers featured. The best teams in Northern Illinois came to Joliet the following week to determine who should represent the Joliet Section in the state finals at Urbana. The teams which came were Elgin, Freeport, Streator, Waukegan, Mount Morris, Elburn, Ottawa, Wheaton, Watseka and Joliet. The first game of the sectional was between Waukegan and Joliet. The eame was exceptionally rough, and a great number of points were scored by both teams. • Waukegan led at the half, 12 to 7, but Joliet immediately tied it at 13-all at the start of the second half. With but two minutes to go B. Girard sunk a basket to put Joliet within one point of a tie, being on the small end of a 28 to 27 score. A long basket and three free throws gave Waukegan the game, 33 to 27. Waukegan had a fast team and handled the ball well. Elgin eliminated Wheaton in the second game, 33 to 21. The following afternoon Watseka and Ottawa were eliminated by Freeport and Mt. Morris. In the evening Elburn was defeated by Streator, 27 to 16, and Waukegan was defeated in an overtime heartbreaker, 16 to 14. The game was one of the most exciting ever seen in the Joliet gym. Over 3,000 saw the game. In the semi-finals Freeport, conference champs, easily defeated Mt. Morris, 29 to 9, and Elgin won the right to play Freeport for the sectional championship by defeating Streator in an exciting game, 23 to 20. Both Freeport and Elgin were off on their basket shooting, but both made up for this by close guarding. Freeport was leading at the half, 6 to 4, but Elgin came back and won by a 10 to 9 score. Both teams deserve much credit although Elgin gets the most for coming through such a hard schedule. Continued from page 88 Joliet traveled to Dekalb to open the conference season the next week. Dekalb had an exceedingly fast passing team and were leading Joliet, 9 to 7, at the half and 12 to 7 at the third quarter. In the final quarter Joliet dropped in baskets from all corners. McGinnis got two holes to bring the score up to 11 and Brown put one in from the center to put Joliet in the lead. McGinnis and Robison sank baskets for good meas ure, and Joliet won, 17 to 13. iMcGinnis scintillated with four baskets. In the next conference game with West Aurora Joliet ran circles around their slower opponents and easily won, 17 to 9. Red Emmerson was Joliet ' s leading scorer. 93 ba KLi ILTTeR Tlie following nifjht Joliet turned back Lake ' iew. This was the last game for Thad Brown, who, changed from a forward to a guard in one season, starred in every game he played. The following Friday night Joliet won their eighth straight game by defeating Rockford in an exciting game, 13 to 12. Rockford was leading 10 to 5, at the half; but Joliet, undismayed, staged a rally which brought them the game. McGinnis won the game almost single-handed, making 11 of the l,i points. On Freeport ' s small tricky floor Joliet was defeated by Freeport ' s heavy light- weights, 35 to 10. The teaf seemed to have stage fright and never did get started. East Aurora came to Joliet, and after playing mediocre ball throughout their previous games became red hot and made shots from all angles, defeating Joliet, 20 to 11. Harrison ' s fast lightweight team came to Joliet the following week to duplicate their feat of defeating Joliet last year. Harrison was leading at the half, 11 to 10, but Joliet showed their old fight and held the lead until the last two minutes when a basket by Harrison put the visitors in the lead. With but fifteen seconds to play, Emmerson, Joliet forward, took a long shot followed up to the basket jumped into the air threw in the winning basket — Joliet 22, Harrison 21. The second team played the first half against the powerful Oak Park crew and were in the lead 8 to 6 when taken out. With the score 15 to 15, baskets by Aspel and McGinnis gave Joliet the game, 19 to 15. Elgin ' s tall lanky team took a 41-to-lO game from our much smaller men by means of some pretty passing and floor work. 95 TRACK— 1924 In the first track meet of the season Joliet lead b - Captain Clark was out- pointed b ' Englewood of Chicago, 61 to 52. Cook, star dash man, won first in the 100-vard dash and first in the 50-yard event, giving him 10 points. Orlovich won firsts in the 440 and the 220 giving him 10 points.

This is the first . ear the girls ha e had track. 97 and we expect quite a few girls to come out for it. The meet will he held the last part of May. Then the girls have baseball, too. This is one of the fa orite sports, anil many girls report for it. The baseball tournament will be held the last of May. I think I heard something about tennis, didn ' t I? asked the cub-ess. Why, surely, I almost forgot that. Tennis is played at the end of the semester. The girls are very keen about tennis. The ' run off their tournament at the end of the semester. I I , marveled the cub-ess, You certainly do a lot of things. ' ou don ' t ha e ;iny time for anything except athletics, do you? My word! We certainlv do have things besides athletics. Why, the girls have parties and hikes and all sorts of good times. Ha en ' t ()u e er heard of the annual party? It is one of the most looked-forward-to parties of the year. E eryone always has a good time. Then the girls have hikes. Do we ha e fun? My wonl, I ' ll say we do. We often hike out to Highland Park. Then we eat and rest a little, then, of course, we ha e to start for home. ( f course, all our good times do not consist of such strenuous activities as dancing and hiking. We have banquets, too. All you ha e to do is eat a good dinner and listen to a lot of peppy speeches. Just before school closes, a banquet is held, and badges are presented. These badges are given for all the athletics — hockey, soccer, basketball, baseball, track, and tennis. At this banquet, the J ' s and inonograms are presented. 98 JfOuffm Isn ' t that an awful lut of work for Mrs. Kirby to liandle? Well, we have sponsors tu sponsor the work. Each year the twirls elect five mothers and three teachers to act as sponsors. This year Mrs. Groth, Mrs. Adams, Mrs. Dibell, Mrs. Martin, and Dr. Bowles were elected as mother-sponsors. Miss Lee Daley, Miss Dickinson, and Miss R3an were chosen as teacher-sponsors. Thank you very much, Aliss G. A. A. for this interview. I am indeed very grateful. Good afternoon! Oh, Miss Cuh-ess, I almost forgot to tell you about one of the most important features of our work. Please come back ' til I tell you about it. Certainly. I ' m very glad you thought of it before I was too far away to be called back, said Miss Cub-ess. Well, began Miss G. A. A., each year, you know, there is a girls ' camp held at Bowen Country Club near Waukegan. It is loads of fun. Ask any of the girls who have been there, and you will find out for yourself. There are quite a number of girls planning already to go this ear. The expenses for the week are fifteen dollars. This is really cheap considering the fun that the girls have. The girls haye swimming, baseball, basketball, tennis, archery and handcraft on the regular program. Then they have hikes to different points of interest, such as Zion City and the Great Lakes Training Station, as sidelines. I think that is all I can say just now. Thank you, if I may repeat myself, I am very glad you thought of the camp before I left. It is very interesting and I am sure all of the girls are anxious to go. THE BAND Presid ent Donald J. Hay Secretary Emmons Kaveney Treasurer Earl Leimbacher When the band assembled in their new band room last September, many familiar names were missing from the roll, due to the graduation of a goodly number of veterans the June previous. It was up to our peerless leader, Mr. McAllister, to develop some raw material to fill the gaps. He set right to work with a will, and in a few weeks the band journeyed down to Springfield and copped first prize in the Illinois High School Band Contest held in conjunction with the Illinois State Fair. A dance, voted the best of the season, was given by the band in December. There were balloon dances, lucky number dances and dances and some more dances. A liberal number of souvenirs were distributed, while refreshments con- sisting of frappe and wafers were served. The Annual Concert was given in April, the proceeds of m iiich were to be used in defraying the expenses of the band in going to Champaign to compete in the 1925 Illinois State High School Band Contest. The band traveled down to Champaign about a week after the concert, deter- mined to bring home tlie bacon to Joliet High again. In closing, we wish to sa ' that we seniors, who are leaving the band, certainly appreciate the good Mr. McAllister has done for us, musically and otherwise, and that we are regretful that we cannot sta - witii him and the band another four years.

Furthermore, the J needed more snaps to represent school activities, and it was recognized that photography might provide a different type of himior. Therefore, the Camera Club was organized with these purposes: To learn to take clear, artistic pictures and to furnish suitable ones for the J. Officers were elected, and the club was laimched by a party given by Mr. Price, the spons(jr. The entertainments for the evening related to photography in one way or another. ' Fhere was an original cross-word puzzle in the form of a kodak; a very fascinating game in which the guests with a blank paper entered a dark room where the paper was m3Steriously inscribed by some unseen hand, and last, but not least, came refreshments which cleverly represented features. Then came meetings with lectures. A very interesting illustrated talk on, The Fallacies of Photograph} was given by Arnette Johnson. At another meeting, Mr. Price explained the function and uses of lenses, and Pauline Riblon discussed The Artistic Composition of Pictures. We are planning to go on hikes and snap the beauty spots of Joliet. It is our aim to produce good, clear pictures of real artistic merit. Alice E. Fitch. 103 mi i] THE BIOLOGY CLUB m 1(14 -tol.

She believes that by presenting English in its vital every day uses, she can teach it more effectively and that by bringing into the class room routine the problems and services of citizenship, she may train students to a correct ethical attitude toward good citizenship. One day of each week is given to oral English programs and business meetings. The programs consist of current event reports, biographies, special day exercises, memorized poems, class and interclass debates. The club business generally centers about raising thrift contributions for some benevolent, altruistic or practical project. The raising oi money for these enterprises, sometimes by sales or tag daj ' s, but gen- erally by small voluntary club dues furnishes training in business methods, Parliamen- tary drill, co-operative team work and thrift habits as well as the great joy of service. Awaiting the fulfillment of that dream we have stored in our hope chest (Room 261) a magazine cupboard, a filing case, a fernery with thrifty plants, a dozen framed wall pictures, a library table, a reading lamp, an electric fireplace, an easy Ere this year book comes from press, we hope to be at home wit ha welcome to all in an atmosphere of refined taste among good books. And, if conditions warrant, this is only the beginning of our English Club possibilities. 106 gvl -nuM 1] BLUE AND GOLD CLUB Head Coach H. L, Cramer Director R. N. Fargo PresiLcnt Raymond iMcGinnis Vice-President : Vance Cummins Secretary-l ' reasurer Thad Brown The Blue and Gold Club was organized to promote clean sportsmanship and better friendship. Since its beginning, three years ago, it has come to be regarded as one of the leading organizations of the school. The club puts its policies into immediate action. Its members urge all good prospects to go out for the teams. The club has been unusualh ' active during the past year. At the district and sectional tournaments, especially, does the club make its influence felt by its treat- ment of the visiting teams. It is the duty of these members appointed to care for the visitors. They see that all their needs are satisfied and treat them with the greatest of care. They meet the teams at the station and conduct them to their hotels or to the school, as the case may be. In this manner the members gain experience, but that is not all they gain, for there are always enthusiastic letters of appreciation from the visiting teams after the tournaments are over. The official sweater of the club has been changed this year. Solid nav ' blue with two gold stripes on the left sleeve is the type selected. Any boy who has won a letter, is entitled to wear one, and this he may do with great pride. An event that is looked forward to with delightful anticipation is the annual dance. The girls who are asked feel proud to go with an athletic hero to this event. The only trouble with this festi ity is that it does not last long enough. The one this year was held April fourth.

Our activities of the }ear began last fall when we sold hot dogs at some of the football games and later eskimo pies at basketball meets to raise the necessary funds for our work. We had a number of pleasant hikes and wienie roa, ts when the weather per- mitted open air meetings. Our summer camp was a week of pure enjoyment, and every one wants to go again. At Christmas time our troop had a part in the High School lunch room. Christmas Eve we sang carols in the streets, our obiccti e point being a family in the northwest end of town to whom we carried a little I ' uletide cheer, thereby gaining a great overflow of joy for ourselves. We have had two rallies, one in the High School Gym, and one in the Ottawa Street Church ; investitures were held at both. Several tenderfoot degrees and a number of merit badges were awarded, and five second class badges were receixed. In Januarw the Scouts gave a demonstration before the Woman ' s Club under the auspices of the social service department, singing scout songs and going through the drill with the flag pledge.

During this season, Mr. Plummer has been in charge of the programs, and under his guidance the discussions of the club have been made very interesting and beneficial to all. Every other week the club had a speaker whose subject was the same as the discussion of the week before. During the year, the club had a few big events, such as the Mother and Son Banquet on November 25, l ' 24, at which time the purpose and platform of the club was e.xplained to all. On January 13, ] ' 25, the club had its annual Father and Son Banquet, at which time Mr. Smith, the foreign secretary of the Y.M.C.A. to China, gave an excellent address explaining the work of the Y.M.C.A. in China. On January 27, 1925, Mr. Boyd I. Walker, State Secretary of Boys ' Work, was the speaker of the evening, and he gave an excellent address on Your Attitude Toward Your Work. During the year the club also had many other prominent citizens of the city to address them. During the membership drive many new members were admitted into the club. On the whole, the club is just completing a season which has been highly beneficial to all. Earl Leimbacher, ' 25. J-HI STARS G.A.A. BALLET 112 J HI STARS President Margaret Masterson Vice-President Ramona Powell Secretary Alice Fitch Treasurer Dorothy Clark The J Hi Stars were organized hy the Junior and Senior girls in 1021 under the supervision of Miss Bertha Denning, the Dean of Girls, ho died in February, 1925. This organization was formed for the students to become better acquainted and to help other people. Some committees are appointed, a few of wjiich are, the program committee, entertainment committee, and the Christmas committee. The Christmas committee is made up of twelve girls, each ol whom has a list of fifteen girls of the organization. Each group brings enough food, old clothing, ni()ne , antl to ■s to give to a very poor family as a gift from Santa Claus. ( )ne humlred Red Cross seals are given to each girl to sell. In these wa s the Stars live up to their noted helpfulness. Friendship among the girls is also a purpose of the club. At the beginning of the semester (September, 1924), a get-acquainted party was held here the girls mixed with those whom they did not know. In April, 1924, a large party was held. The Stars were divided into twehe groups, who each chose a color in which to decorate their tables at the dinner, and also planned a stunt to do after the dinner. Senior girls were chosen as sponsors to the B I Freshmen to advise them and help them over the rough road of beginning high school. The Senior J Hi Stars hope the Junior girls and the future J Hi Stars will make this organization bigger, better and more helpful than we have made it. Ramona Powell, ' 25.

This organization is the Joliet Chapter of the National Honor Society. It is patterned after the Phi Beta Kappa Society which was established in colleges in 1776. The members of the National Honor Socict ' are not chosen on scholarship alone, as in the Phi Beta Kappa, but the faculty committee in choosing the members, takes into consideration, character, service, and leadership. The definitions of these four are as follows: Character, as shown by the high moral ideas that determine the students ' personal relationships; excellence in scholar- ship, as shown by the standards of achievement which have been maintained while in high school ; marked leadership, as shown by initiative and resourcefulness in getting others to act in harmony for worthy purposes; and distinction in service, as shown by willingness to expend personal eiifort unselfishly to promote worthy projects. These four characteristics are represented on the emblems of a keystone torch by the four initial letters C S L S. This emblem is given to the girls in the form of a pin and to the boys in the form of a fob. M.ARGARET Leach, ' 25. 114 THE LUNCH ROOM CLUB Hello, friends! Here we are again. We have tried to serve -ou to the best of our ability and be as courteous to you as possible. As you look at this page you will think of the study in which we were all good — lunch ! and you will also remember the people who served you. The following is a list of the serving girls. They are: Ruby Rockenbock, Catherine Blotnik, Florence Greenwood, Alice Mitchell, Bertha Bitterman, Mildred Relf, Evelyn Baily and Elsie Fisher. The cashiers are: Perry McClue and Paul Stewart. The checkers are: Howard Murray, Eric Anderson and Walter Rungatis. The candy girl is Betty Powell. Miss Humphrey of the Home Economics department has charge of the lunch room in general. The students work the 7-8-9-10 periods, or from 11:12 until 1:00 o ' clock, minus the time to eat their own lunch, which is allowed them in return for their services rendered. The ninth period is the time which the largest number of students eat. The next in order are the tenth, eighth, and seventh periods. On the average, about 500 students and teachers are served every day. But on the average, about 1500 to 1700 students eat in the lunch room every da} ' . A great many of the students bring their lunch, and get some hot food or milk to eat with their lunch. This is what brings the amount of people eating in the lunch room far above the amount of people who are served. The lunch room is run on a strictly non-profit basis. The prices of all articles are set so as to take care of the total cost, without making any profit. Paul Stewart, ' 25. MUSIC DEPARTMENT Station WJAZ broadcasting. The Zenitii Broadcasting Station located at the Universah ' st Auditorium, Joh ' et, Ilh ' nois. The number -ou last heard was ' Good Night, Beloved, ' sung by the Mixed Chorus of the Joliet Township High School. This was during the first week of October, 1924. The chorus singing was not all that went over the ether. The Girls ' Chorus sang In Our Boat and the Boys ' Glee Club also ga ' e a number. On October 23rd, the Treble Choir motored to Mokena to sing at the Lutheran Cluirch. Tiie audience was large and appreciative. The Chamber of Commerce enjoyed a program by the Boys ' Glee Club on the 30th of the same month. The Teachers ' Institute was held in the High School Auditorium, November 19th, and here the Treble Choir and Boys ' Glee Club each gave three numbers. At a meeting of the Women ' s Club in the Universalist Church these two organizations made their next appearance. The program which they gave was preceded by a talk by Miss BoA ' d outlining the work of the Music Department of tlie High School. The Girls ' Treble Choir sang at the First Baptist Church, November 30th, and their work was certainly appreciated. The Mixed Chorus, under the direction of Mr. Brockette, presented Gallia and The Christ Child at Christmas time. The Ladies of the Rotary club enjoyed a program by the Treble Choir at their Mother and Daughter Banquet, January 8th. The same organization sang for the members of the English Lutheran Church at their evening service, January 29th. The Boys ' Glee Club and the Treble Choir gave a concert at the Elwood Methodist Church in January. Ralph Cissne played several numbers brilliantly, and the evening was a great success. At the Farmers ' Institute, Thursday, January 29th, the Girls ' Chorus gave three numbers. The Trble Choir, vested, sang The Lord Is My Shepherd at the funeral service of our beloved Miss Denning, on February 2nd. The Minstrel Show of the R.O.T.C. Revue was given by the Boys ' Glee Club. Jack Maitland of the Junior College acted as middleman and Miss Boyd was coach. Stuart Robson and Ralph Hilton were endmen. On March 17th the Treble Choir took part in the G.A.A. entertainment and gave a nursery rhyme suite in costume. A Maypole piece was their second number. The Boys ' Glee Club sang on April 26th, at the First Baptist Church. An Easter Concert was given March 29th, and here Gounod ' s Redemption was presented. The Girls ' Chorus started the May Festival on Sunday, May 3rd, by singing a cantata, A Spring Symphony, by P ' lorence Golson. Soloists were Alice Harris and Evelyn Gardner. The Boys ' Glee Club and the Treble Choir assisted in the presentation of the Opera Martha by the Junior College. This was during the May Festival, as was the Musical Comedy Once in a Blue Moon. The latter was given by the IVIixed Chorus. The usual part in the Commencement Program and that of Baccalaureate Sunday was taken by the Chorus. The Music Department is closing their busiest year. ■ -■ • 117 ORCHESTRA In the past year this organization lias endeavored to keep up the reputation of the school. Have they succeeded? Well — ask your friends and your friends ' friends who have heard them. They now have the advantage of practicing one hour a day and five days a week, a privilege they have never had before. Four days a week they are under the direction of Mr. Hiram Converse. One day a week, Wednesday, they assist in the Mixed Chorus under the direction of Mr. Brockctt. Work? Of course they work. You shmould see them. Smiling, noisy, and bubbling over with enthusiasm. Their concerts show they have worked. Have you heard them ? The first concert of the year was a great success, enjoyed by liundreds of unseen admirers. They broadcasted from the Universalist Church, October 10. They also pla ed a few numbers at the Flower Show held in the H. S. Gymnasium, November 1 7. The third appearance of the season was a concert at the Ottawa Street M. E. Church, December 8. After the concert the members of the orchestra were treated to ice cream and cake. This topped off the evening with cheers. The fourth event of the season was the Christmas Cantata at which the orchestra and chorus rallied for success. Gallia and The Christ Child were the principal numbers. The audience comprised more than 1 500 people. January 18 and 19, the Junior College presented the play Honor Bright assisted by the orchestra. February 3, they played a few selections before the Catholic Women ' s League. March 8, they played a third of a series of concerts given by the Bureau of Recreation. After the concert their picture was taken, However, all survived the shock. March 31, they assisted at a play given by the Woman ' s club. The next was the Easter concert given by the orchestra and chorus. It consisted of Easter selections by Gounod. Then came the musical comedy, Once in a Blue Moon given by the mixed chorus and orchestra, May 1. Oh what a season of events! They have increased in mmiber as v.ell as in name.

We are doing s(jme ver good work. We hope some day to have our unit represented in the AVorld ' s Champion Rifle ] Iatch. We are sure they could win, because it seems as though, when one makes a good target, the other does, also. Britta Asker is our best representative now. She is shooting for her fourth bar. Let ' s give three cheers for Britta, girls! Margaret Kertes is not far behind. She is shooting for her second bar, and Crystal Cherry for her first bar. Marie Schwab, Alice Spangler, Irene Kertes, and Birgitha Lindemann are using their keen eyesight in sharpshooting. Frances Johnson, Dorothy Kuehne, Sarah Balchowasky are shooting for their Marksman medals. Although we work hard with our shooting, we hnd time to plan for parties with good refreshments. I ' he initiation of new members is generally one of the chief entertainments of the party. ( )nly those who ha e experience know what a good sportsman represents. We all respect our instructor, who is Mrs. Asker. She helps us to be ery good in our work. 120 1 mi JUNIOR RIFLE CORPS UNIT 667 Supervisor Linna Testin Assistant Supervisor Nellie Mooney Warden Helen Ditrich Recorder Margaret Palmer Range Officer Ruth Clement Assistant Instructor Erma Zweig Unit 667, a hit where 3 ' ou aim, had a ver ' successful ear during 1925. It owes its success to the good range, good riHes, and mainly a good instructor. The majority of the matches shot were won. When school began in September, 1924, nearly half the members had graduated in the previous June, and the unit was left with a membership of five. With the addition of new members our total is now nine. The unit meets every Monday after school for practice. Our instructor is Mr. H. D. Grose, who is state supervisor of the W.J.R.C. of Illinois. An entertainment committee was appointed by the unit to keep the fun going. We have had several parties and are making plans for another part)- in Jvme. 121 .11 JUNIOR RIFLE CORPS UNIT 985 Supervisor Minnie Dennis Assistant Supervisor Myrtle Lee Recorder Jewel Minert Range Ruth Schultz Social Committee Elsie Stern, Vera Mahoney, Margaret Mahoney Unit 985 was a year old, April 8, 1925. During this time we have been shooting to the best of our abilitv. Our aim is: Hit the bull every time. Ruth Schultz and Minnie Dennis are shooting for tlieir first bar. Jewel Minert is shooting for her Sharpshooter medal. The rest of the members are shooting for their IMarksman medal. Mrs. S. C. Schultz was elected our sponsor, and since then we have been making considerable headway in our shooting. The members of unit 985 have a code of rules besides the rules which every person learns who becomes a member of a W.J.R.C. unit. 1. If a member of the unit is absent from three consecutive meetings (sickness excepted), she is automatically dropped from the unit. 2. If a member of the unit is three weeks in arrears with her dues, she is automaticalh ' dropped from the unit. 3. The unit membership will remain ten until September, 1925, when we shall take in some new members to fill the vacancies. We appreciate the helpful instruction that Mr. Grose has given us. We strive to do that which is right and also learn something new in shooting. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. This is true, and while we are working hard, we are also having good times. We ha e been entertained in the homes of several of our members. Ruth Schultz, ' 26. 122 i liZi THE RADIO CLUB President George Harrigan Secretary-Treasurer Dominic L. Sandretto Faculty ' Advisor Herbert G. Schreiter A rapid survey of the progress of the Joliet Radio Club since last September shows that the club, this year, has been entirely a success. The main objective of the club has been the establishment of amateur radio stations in Joliet. Some of the members have devoted their time to this, and, as a result, two members, Dominic Sandretto and Peter Sandretto, are now transmitting under the calls of 9AWI and 9BIG, respectively. Several others are planning to take the examination for licensed operators. Under the able management of Mr. Schreiter, experiments designed to teach practical work in radio, have been carried out. The club now boasts of three very good receivers and a c.w. and phone transmitter besides the one-half k.w. spark transmitter that it has owned for several years. Since the first meeting held this year, a few of the members have dropped out. However, new members with a real interest in radio have replaced them. Vith every member interested in transmission, the future for the club looks bright. This year, it has been a success. DoMixic Sandretto, ' 25. 123 m R. O. T. C. Say! The R.O.T.C. surely had one red letter year this time. You bet we did. Had more fun and did more things than were ever done before. We started the year right out with a big football game between the Army, the R.O.T.C, we mean, and the Band. Both teams showed a lot of class, and the game looked like a bloody battle. It surely was ! Neither team scored until late in the game, when, after struggling back and forth, the Band fumbled and the eagle-eyed Army grabbed up the ball for a touchdown. The cheering crowd went mad, and the victorious team was escorted from the field ' mid wild shouts of joy. Then we had an inspection. Colonel Stillman of the Headquarters Corps of the 6th Area came down to Joliet to inspect the unit and to give us our honor rating. The day was wofully cold and the unit had a tough break. A couple of guns slipped from numb fingers and went crashing to terra firma, and a few band instruments froze up and stuck tight, but even if the men all did look kind of cracked on account of red noses, we carried it off in great style, and the general impression was that we received a rather good rating. We suppose the sponsors of the unit were sort of sorry for us after that experi- ence, so we had a dance. And as Major Stu would say, It sure was a splendiferous Cakewalk. Bob Pierce ' s Orchestra furnished some spicy music, and Miss Daley and Lieutenant Moroney saw to it that plenty of entertainment was provided. The only trouble was that the crowd was not large enough, but even so, we all had a splendid time. 124 3tt llfmoriam g ' Qt. (Emi iluUiuB iSnrn S ' tpt 2. 1901 lirJi April 12. 1925 The first winter entertainments were basketball games between the various companies. The championship was hotly contested, but the Band sailed through to victory in the final game, wreaking terrible revenge for the defeat in the football game. In the meantime Lieutenant Ed Smiley distinguished himself by marching the Rainbow Division around the gym twice without giving the same command a second time. The Rainbow Division, ou must know, is that aggregation of youths that persist in wearing everything and anything but their uniforms on drill days. The rest of the winter ' s program consisted of the R.O.T.C. Revue. Our local talent got a chance to extend itself, and it certainly did itself credit. The revue was given before a capacity house, and the audience received all of the offerings with thunderous applause. By means of the entertainment, the R.O.T.C. gathered unto itself sufficient shekels to pay for another dance in the spring. Then, as a sort of reward for the work and time spent b - them in giving the Revue, the cast were all invited to a big hop in the lunch room. The crowd was small but merry, and the proverbial roof was a good deal shaken. The annual field day was carried off with flying colors, and as usual, the exhibition was snappy and soldierly and was much enjoyed and appreciated by the spectators. The results of the competitions are announced elsewhere in this issue. The big formal Cadet Hop was on the night of the Field Day and a very gay affair.

Seme of o :r scribblers were really good. Every Friday before ths J went to prcjs, everyone was requested to bring some contribution, if it was only a joke or tv o. i he;e ciin- tributions included poetry, stories, general write-ups. ' 1 his w as onl}- one of our many duties around school. We supported every acti ;t) ' , sold ticket;., maJ? boo t;r speeches, and sny, we were responsible for a lot of assemblies, too! Now I might as well tell you who we are. The Scribb ' er.-, ' Club is made up of members of the public speaking classes. Miss Dickin on is our faculty adviser- All right folks, three rahs for Dickie! Nobody likes a club unless it has some parties. Our first party of the year was a Halloween party and believe us, if you ' d been there, yo.i ' d n ' mo t have be ievcd in ghosts. The next one was a Thanksgiving program. We might adJ that we always had eats, too, and talk about Christmas parties! Everyone received a little present, and everyone gave some little article to the poor. These were de ' ivcrej with the J Hi Stars ' baskets. We had a Christmas tree, too. Our January party was in the form of a get together in the girls ' gymnasium. Dancing was the divcrs.ion until 5 o ' clock. A good time was had by all. There were so many occasions for celebrations in February, that we were almo t desperate. We chose Valentine ' s Day because we liked its romantic nature. E ery- one had to make a ' alentinc and write an original er e on it. Some of them appeared in the last J. Weren ' t they good? In March, we had St. Patrick ' s Day programs. They were really ery clever, being made up of Ir;sh songs, readings, and even Irish jigs. The iMay Day program was next on our calendar of events. This gave us another opportunity to write poetry. Each person h.ad to fix up a May basket and attach a poem to it. Now, don ' t you wish you ' d taken public speaking? We surely bad good t;me?. The benefits and knowledge we gained are too numerous to mention. Here are our best wishes for the Scribblers ' Club ne.xt year! ' . ■ ■■ Lois Hartmax, ' 2j. mi K.D.C. CLUB YEAR BOOK BOOSTERS The ear Book annuall - gives an award to any club or group of twenty people securing advertisements worth eight) ' dollars or more, according to the size of the group. This award is a half page picture in the Year Book. Some members of the K.D.C. Club were very active in getting ads and secured enough to entitle them to a picture. We are very thankful that these people have shown so much interest, and we appreciate it. The K.D.C. Club is composed of a group of very active go-getters of the school, who have a club all their own, but it is not school-sponsored. The Ad Boosters are the rest of the people who secured ads. The Journalism class was very busy this year securing most of the ads and collecting most of the copy, but there were many outside of the class who did very good work also. Every year a medal is given to the person who secures the most ads. The medal was given to Homer Givenrod who is holder of last year ' s medal also. Homer has done very good work for the Year Book in past years, and we hope he will continue next year. We also wish to thank everyone who has helped the Year Book in any way. M M T — f 130 ffl IS AD BOOSTERS ETIQUETTE CLUB 131 THE STUDENT COUNCIL As the student council is representative of the student hoJ , the students are naturally interested in what it accomplishes. So here are a few of the things it has done this ear. Thinkiiifi to eliminate extravaf ance in school parties, a recommendation was passed suggesting that not more than fifty dollars be spent un a part unless under special circumstances. The amount should be judged by the faculty sponsor of the organization. The majority of our assemblies were sponsored by the Council. The choice of yell leaders was also executed by this organization, and the suits were paid for b} money which was earned through a checkroom used on nights when there were basketball games. Man - of the students were complaining of the fact that when seats were being reservetl for plays, people near the front of the line sometimes reserved as many as one hundred and fifty tickets. This matter was taken up bv the Council, and the number of tickets one student may reserve was limited to twenty. There are a number of students having but one study period besides the seventh and eighth periods. The law stating that students having period for study other than these two might not go to the library at one time, made it difficult for the. e people. It is difficult for these because little can be accomplished in one period. This was also taken up in the Council and then taken to Dr. Smith, so students having only one other study period than the seventh and eighth are now allowed to use these.

There they made two large fires and consumed quantities of weenies, rolls, and fruit. Several girls had brought along ukes and for about an hour we sat around the fire and serenaded the woods around us. On December 5, 1 24, we had our first college party of the year. It was held in the Mary Walker Hotel where over forty couples danced the evening away. A favor dance, a prize number dance, and a confetti dance all helped to add to the general enjoyment. A short program was the feature of the evening. Miss Ruth Brannon sang two selections and Miss Heloise Marwick danced for us. The next event on the social calendar is to be a Bowery Dance, March 21, 1925, given by the play-cast of Honor Bright who invited all the members of the Stars and Satellites to attend. We expect great things from this dance. The members of fhe second year class are also anticipating the Annual Banquet in June, given by the first year class. m @ H 145 H M HONOR BRIGHT Honur Hn ' ght, this year ' s college play f(jr the henefit of the College Loan Fund, was given Decemher IS and 1 . This brilliant comedy drama by Meredith and Kenton Nicholson, with a very well picked cast directed h Miss Dickinson, furnished a delightful evening ' s entertainment. The cast of characters is as follows: Grace Anderson gave a very charming interpretation of the title role. Xo one who saw the play will ever forget her as the modern Juliet in the balcony scene with Dana Watson. Edward Grinton, who played the part of the harassed hero, won the s ' mpathy of his audience by his excellent portrayal of his part. The spice of the play centered around Dorothy Bush who gave a spirited performance of Tot Marvel, chorus girl of the Snap It Up Company. Lee Stevens was the typical rough-neck press agent, the only (jne who could handle the temperamental Tot. Dana Watson as the good, gra bishop was as convincing as a bishop could be and had a convincing line which lost nothing in his hands. Aliss Ardis Denison, as the bishop ' s wife, was a perfect, snobbish Aunt Pegg ' , properly horrified at Tot ' s emphatic slang. Irene Heiland was an ideal mother for the hero, gi ing poise and dignitv to her part. Paul M ers did particularly well in his part. Eleanor Metheny made a hit as the Irish cook leading the servants on a strike against a chorus-girl mistress. Jenny Westling brought a laugh with her at each appearance, nor was the audience bored when Watts, the butler, played by Royal Ronipel, was on the stage. Luther Blatt and James Smiley represented the law exceedingly well. Clyde AVest did excellent work as the chauffeur, and Robert Conkling did very well with his Scotch part. Nor should the puppy, brought in by Lee Stevens in the last act, be forgotten ; his every move made a hit with the audience. The high school orchestra directed by Hiram Converse, gu e an interesting musical program between the acts. THE DEBATING TEAM The Junior College engaged with credit in two lively intercollege debates in the last ear. This form of intercollegiate activity promises to receive more attention and support in the next few years. In the first debate with Crane Junior College of Chicago, Joliet was not able to obtain a favorable decision, but it was adnu ' tted b - all that the contest was close. Those who witnessed the debate say that it ' as one of the most dramatic and inter- esting ever staged in Joliet. Intense feeling and brilliancy was especially strong in the rebuttal of the Joliet team. The promising orators who had the privilege and honor of representing Joliet were Austin Forkner, Jack Maitland, Ruth Brannon and Clark McFarland, coached by Earl Douglas. The Joliet speakers upheld the negative side of the question, Resolved, that there shall be a constitutional amendment providing that congress may, by re-enacting a statute, make it effective over a judicial decision. Mr. Gil- lispie, who was the captain of the Crane team, opened and closed the debate with the true eloquence of an experienced orator. A number of collegians with opened notebooks sat in the front rows to catch the crumbs of knowledge that fell from the orators ' lips. The second debate was with the night school on the question, Resolved, that our material prosperity is a menace to our civilization. It is due to the persistence and diligence of the debating team that Joliet has put herself on the debating map. Austin- Forkxer, ' 26. 147 Wi oeKin Lni ineer.

P. Somes At ou r first meeting of the ear, in September, we were addressed by Dr. An- drews, of the King Clinic and Northwestern University. Dr. Andrews gave us a brief outline of the requirements for the medical profession, its limitations and its advantages. He also spoke of the medical schools in this country and abroad, com- paring them as to standing and clinical facilities. After questioning him we could not but conclude that the schools of our own Middle West are as good as can be found. Before our next meeting we had adopted our club pin, a small black and gold shield crossed by a pair of scalpels, and with the characters J.J.C. Pre-Medic engraved upon it. This second meeting was given over to a talk by Dr. Shreffler, one of Joliet ' s most able surgeons. His subject was The History of Surgery, starting at prehistoric man and coming through to this day of local anaesthetics and radio knives. We were especially interested by Dr. Shreffler ' s account of the surgery of Hippocrates, who is now known as the father of surgery. With these two meetings the club year was well under way. Our Vice-Cadaver visited the University of Illinois Medical College, and there witnessed two major operations. Of course he told us all about it. At one meeting Prof. Somes, who is well acquainted with the Mayo Clinic, presented an almost photographic description 153 I-..,,.:,.,,, . lZ ,, ,,,, ,._ GROWLERS President Jack Maitland Vice-President Lois Hodgson Secretary-Treasurer Ariel Mortvedt This year broui. ht the Growlers many new members tc ta!:e the places of those who had graduated last spring. Tlie first meeting of the year was a very peppy one; the social committee introduced some very entertaining games. The officers for the first semester were also elected at this meeting. They were: Clark McFarlan, President; Mary Louise Schuster, Vice-President; and Francis Dailey, Secretary- Treasurer. The programs given at each meeting are an important feature of the club. They are usually of a literary character, often humorous, and many of the selections are the original work of the members. We have also some musical talent in the club which we make use of at every chance. One meeting was conducted as a track meet, and during the social hour every one entered in the discus throwing (paper bags filled witli air) and javelin throwing (straws) to try tjieir strength. Other contests were held, such as eating marshmallows from a string. May Johannsen, as chairman of the committee, deserves much credit for the working out of tlie programs and the social hour in a clever and entertaining manner. Early in the year Miss Law resigned her place as sponsor, and Miss Mather kindly consented to take her place. She and our other sponsor, Air. Trams, gave inspiration and advice to the officers and members of tlie club. Continued from 153 of the clinic and its operation, after which he read a letter from one of the famous Mayo brothers, with whom he is personally acquainted. 154 E MUSICAL CLUB Following their custom of producing at least one standard work each year, the Junior College Musical Club is putting on the semi-serious opera Martha. Lady Harriet, alias Martha Elizabeth Wilson Nancy, her f rien 1 Doris Rohrbach Sir Tristam Dana Watson Lionel Wesley Summerfield of Bloomington Plunkett Jack Maitland The Sheriff of Richmond Austin Forkner Accompanists are Verna Baile ' and Ariel Mortvedt. Lady Harriet, one of Queen Anne ' s ladies-in-waiting, wearied of court life, disguises herself as a peasant, and a ccompanied by her friend Nancy and her faithful lover ' Fristam, also disguised, goes to the Richmond fair. The two maidens hire themselves out as servants to the farmer Plunkett and his foster brother Lionel who had been a waif with nothing to identify him except a ring, which in case of need, was to be shown to the queen. ' Fhe maidens have accepted the legal earnest money, so they are forced to go home with the farmers. They cannot do even the simplest sort of work, and an amusing scene ensues where the men try to teach them to spin. Lionel falls in love with Martha, alias Lady Harriet, and asks her to sing for him, The Last Rose of Summer. At midnight Sir Tristam rescues the two maidens from their predicament. (Continued on pag ' e 1(51) THE DRAMATIC CLUB President Willa Jean Webb Vice-President Eleanor Metheny Secretary Jenny Westling Treasurer Dana Watson Early in October every one interested in dramatics in Junior College met at a gathering to decide whether or not we should continue the dramatic club of last year. It was unanimous that it be continued, so our work for the year began. Irene Heiland was elected President; Richard Jones, Vice-President; Lois Hodg- son, Secretary; and Robert Conkling, Treasurer, while Miss Dickinson is our sponsor. We took up the study of one-act plays, having selections of two different types every meeting. Besides this, the club members were very active in putting over the annual Junior College Play, Honor Bright. We adopted the name Stars and Satellites which is well illustrated by the fact that some of the club members appeared in Honor Bright, while others took part in the plays given at the meetings. IVIeetings are held once every four weeks in the lunch room. At every meeting there are two one-act plays given and then a social hour. The plays have been unusually good, and we have even had a play given in French and one in German as well as a few costume plays. It is favorable for the fostering of dramatics in Junior College, and we are sure it is now an established organization in our institution. Grace Anderson. FEYTEL CINQ Broadcasting Station, Room 2 5. Entertainers: The Feytel Cinq under the direction of Madame Babcock and the foUowing officers: President, Mary Louise Schuster; ' ice-President, Elizabeth Adler ; Secretary-Treasurer, Margaret E. Giertz. This is station F C at J. J. C. now broadcasting our educational and entertaining program. For the benefit of those who tuned into this station for the first time, we will tell you about the programs we have given. On every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, we broadcast our French lessons, which have consisted of the reading, translation, and dramatization of Mile, dc la Seigliere ; the reading and translation of the picturesque novel, Gil Glas : and the reading and translation of Eugiene Grandet. We broadcast the World Crier when something interesting occurs in France, or when we acquire some knowledge of some great French actors. On Fridays we generally have our entertainment, in which we have French games, dramas, reports, and extensive conversations. Radio operator, you have tuned in too late to hear the entertainment given by P C for the first year College French class and also for that given by the latter for F C. Great talent was displayed in both. This broadcasting was done by a special wire from the station to Snapp ' s Cafe. The greatest program given, to which the public was invited, was the presentation of the modern play, Marraine de Guerre. It has been repeated by request, several times, but given each time by different members of F C. This is station F C now signing off. Au re voir. Margaret E. Giertz. NOBLESSE OBLIGE President Robert Conklinj Vice-President Ariel Mortvedt Secretary Julia McGowan Program Committee Elizabeth Wilson, L nn Faut, and Ray Rafter Noblesse Oblige is the name the first year French Club chose. As the name implies, the club tries to do noble things and oblige other people. The club was organized the twelfth of September. The next Friday officers were elected and the club began in earnest. It met about e ery other Friday throughout the year. At the meetings the members learned to play French games and sing French songs. The favorite games were Cure-Dent and Un Jen Alphabetique, Cadet Rouselle, and Rest Avec Nous. The members of the Noblesse Oblige atended a party given two weeks before Christmas at Snapp ' s Cafeteria by the Feytel Club. The first-year members did not understand much that was said but they enjoyed themsehes trying to guess. The club had a small Christmas party in the auditorium. At the party, songs uere sung, games played, gifts exchanged and candy eaten. The talk was supposedly in French but an attentive listener would have heard many lapses into English. The Noblesse Oblige gave a St. Valentine ' s party in Snapp ' s Cafeteria to which the Fe tel Club was invited. The program was arranged by the club and every mem- ber had a share in it. There were a series of short talks on La Rochefoucould, the address of welcome and the introductory speeches. Piano and i)cal solos took their part in the program. A chorus of bo s sang some of the familiar French songs. A new feature of the party was the working of French cross-word puzzles. IIZI Basket-Bail Baseball Port COLLEGE BASKET-BALL Tlie 1924-25 basketball season, wiiile ncit a brilliant success from tile standpoint of victories, was a success when we remember that the squad was composed mainly of untried but scrappy, gingery lads. The squad began its tutelage under Coach Ranne, and later Coach Fargo took charge and guided the boys through the rest of the season. The season began with the Chicago Dental College and in this game the bo s gave evidence of their latent abilities as basketeers by giving the Dentists a small score , to take back with them. (Some smart fellow said they received an athletic toothache, which in spite of their drills, false teeth and gas, they could not overcome.) Tiiis initial victory gave the men a great deal of courage and determination, and they launched upon the next game with an over-abundance of pep, but Crane College, with its well seasoned team, was too much for the purple and white. Daily, our persistent forward, however, proved himself a menace to the rangy Crane men by his constant dribbles from basket to basket and they were not entirely sure of victory until the final gun. The Crane team proved its ability throughout the season by overcoming all conference contenders and finally tucking the conference honors in its belt. Joliet next was matched against Elgin College and after much hectic 159 E 4Mi seesawing the game was won b - the Elgin team. Next week found the boys against the Medill College on Medill ' s floor. This game was fast and spicy; the jMedill gymnasium was quite undersized ( Gil Charlstrom could make the length by one step and a fall), and it was difficult for the Purple and Vhite to accustom themselves to its small proportions. (Joliet certainly fought, but could not beard the lion in his own den. ) The teachers from Chicago Normal were next on the list. The boys ma - ha e had some classroom memories during this game, for they gave the embryo profs, the small end of the score. We lost the next game to the strong Crane team (now conference title holders), but Crane was well aware of the fact that Joliet was on the floor. Lisle College repeated the Crane defeat one week later, and this was followed by a third loss at the hands of the Elgin College. The Purple, tired of being the loser, handed Medill College a thorough trimming one week later, all the time trying to keep in mind her three successive defeats. Two games were played with North Park College and both proved a rompaway for the Purple and White. Fate decreed that Joliet should close the season with a defeat at the hands of Lisle. A number of the boys who were always to be counted upon during the season were: Dailey, Fish, Johannsen, Eckman, Doc Seron, Alfrick, Rodgers, Stephenson, Charlstrom, Simms and Bryson (Mgr. ). l L 160 4m BASKETBALL SCHEDULE Score Chicago Denta 16 Crane 19 Elgin 30 Medill 29 Chicago Norma 1 20 Lisle 30 Crane 43 Elgin 36 Medill 21 North Park Lost Lisle Won Score Date Joliet 28 Jan. 3 Joliet 10 Jan. 10 Joliet 18 Jan. 16 Joliet 26 Jan. 31 Joliet 22 Jan. 30 Joliet 25 Feb. 7 Joliet 18 Feb. 11 Joliet 26 Feb. 20 Joliet 28 Feb. 28 Joliet Won Joliet Lost BASEBALL The college baseball bug that always arrives in the spring (with the spring-fever germ) has been buzzing around for several days; he has bitten several of the fans and athletes who can talk nothing but baseball, baseball, and indications show that a large number will report. They intend to outdo last year ' s team by replacing the one defeat with a victory and enlarging upon the winning scores. A number of the letter men from last year can be relied upon, and it is around these that Coach Fargo hopes to build his winning team. THE SCHEDULE, 1925 April 17 — Joliet at Morton.

MUSICAL CLUB (Continued from 155) Lionel is frantic with grief and searches all over for ALartha. One day, seeing her out hunting, he recognizes her, but she spurns him. In despair he sends the ring to the queen, and is thus identified as the son of a banished but forgiven earl. Despite her apparent harshness. Lady Harriet loves Lionel, even before the discovery of his high rank, and she now relents. He, however, has lost his mind from his sufferings and he repulses her. Hoping to bring back his reason, they re-enact the scene of their meeting — the fair. The device is successful, and Lady Harriet and Lionel are happy once again.

WHAT A GOOD STUDENT SHOULD DO The first thing to do, to start out the day right, is to come to school ever - I lorning about seven o ' clock, so that j-ou may have more time to race up and down the halls before school begins. After you get here, bang your locker and throw pa- per all over the walls. Kick over the waste paper boxes and leave your locker open. Don ' t be satisfied with doing only this, hut bring crayons and mark up the bul- letin board and carve your name on the desks. By this time the last bell will probably- ring, but be sure not to go to ()ur first class until the halls are empty; then rush madly into the classroom and bang down your books on the desk. While Tho you save but small amounts ' tis reg ularity that counts. We pay 3% interest on savings.
