( )ur first game was a practice game with Central. In this pre-season game hoth teams lacked a systematic, well- timed, driving attack. They resorted to a defensive game supplemented with an aerial offense. Only on a fnmliled jnnit did Central score. The defensive line play of Rizzuto stood out. RATON 0— LA JUNTA i2 The Tigers showed improvement in their oft ' ense hut still relied on their aerial attack. Every touchdown came via the aerial route with Schweninger on the passing end. Moore played well at center. Mayer was outstanding in his line play. ROCKY FORD 0— LA JUNTA 14 In the first league game i)assing was still used as a main offensive weapon. The backfield showed improvement in a running attack and the hacks made telling yardage. Interference led liy Harrison ' s spiking was the most evident develop- ment. Both touchdowns in this game resulted from passes. The first was made on a short pass, Schweninger to Eakes and the second when Del Ritchhart inter- cepted a Meloneer pass and ran. with good interference. 40 yards past the final chalk line. Jackson at end starred on offensive wt)rk. FOWLER 2— LA JUNTA After an easy game with ( Jrdway (83-0) an over-confident La Junta team bowed to the P ' owler Crizzlies, a safety in the first quarter resulting in the only score. The Tigers used an undeveloped running offense. Several times they worked their way into a scoring position. Fumbles proved too costly. The steadi- ness of Richards and the defensive work of Hart were the only redeeming features of the game. mt ■ . i 19 28 a i I 31 1 Jackson, E; Eakes, E; Harrison, HB; Richards, HB; Schweninger, HB. Hart, T. LAS ANIMAS C— LA JUNTA 25 Here the backs whipped into real form and, aided by a driving line, avenged the defeat given them liy the Trojans the year before. For the first time of the season the team showed championship form. Schweninger and Richards ripped ofif big gains and Capt. Ritchhart was good for short yardage through the Hne when the 8-8 play was called. Fugits was outstanding as a defensive tackle and Mayer ' s offensive work was good. ROCKY FORD 0— LA JUNTA 7 La Junta started the second round in the Southern Colorado League by defeating Rocky Ford in a colorful game. Rocky Ford played a defensive game, taking advantage of the strong wind and punting unhesitatingly, when it Was at their backs. Richards and Ritchhart gained readily in midfield. Our first chance .s - «0l i @ 19 28 I 32 1 Mayer, T; 1). Kitchharl. QB ; Moore, C: Inigits, T; P. Ritcliliart, Capt. FB. to score came after a long run liy Schweninger and anotlier l)y Richards, hut here we failed to pass the final chalk mark. The winning score was made when Del Ritchhart plunged over the line for a touchdown, just as the gun shot. FOWLER 0— LA JUNTA 45 This game may 1)e considered the apex of the 1927 season. Avenging a burn- ing 2-0 defeat, the cool Tigers ripped off tackles, shot short passes and plunged the heavier Grizzly line to pile score on score. La Junta used a guard-around interference system in which Rizzuto and Shasteen featured. Fowler could not gain. Checked in their attempt to score from their one-yard line in the first minute of play, they never offered further threats at scoring. Richards, Capt. Ritchhart, Schweninger, and Fakes aided individually in the machine-like powerfulness of the Tigers. LAS ANIMAS 0— LA JUNTA 31 In this game the weaker Trojans, in a desperate attempt to score, revealed a well-polished passing attack : but a stronger defense met each heave. The Trojans were turned back l)y the smooth, perfected slashes, off-tackle, and skirts around ends. The first touchdown came after a 30 yard gain by Schweninger aided by perfect interference. Rizzuto and Shasteen, L. J. ' s famous 140 pound pair of guards ran their usual heady interference and paved the way for long gains. Capt. Ritchhart plunged the line and generally came through when yards were needed. The entire line functioned viciously. Twenty-four men saw action in this Tiger victory. LAMAR 6--LA JUNTA 19 Irl the semi-final contest for the State Championship the intensified play of the La Junta team repelled the heavier Lamar Savages. Lamar had beaten Hugo, S : ' -w '  -= :t 1928 y [33] Cole, QB; Shasteen, G; McCall, G; Townsend, C; Rizzuto, G. champions of S. E. Colorado, and were strong contenders for the State Champion- ship. From the start the Tigers whipped over gain after gain, and Schweninger, after an unbroken sixty yard run, scored in the first five minutes of play, from the 10 yard line on a reverse play. Every attempt of the Lamar team to come back resulted in a more fierce onrush by the Tigers. Capt. Ritchhart scored two touch- downs on line plays ; on the second he ran untouched through tackle for ten yards. Eakes on the receiving end of passes was one feature. Mayer in the line charging with McCall opened holes and made the 8-6- play a ground gainer. Hart was outstanding in his line play, too. The entire line was like a wall to the confident and heavy Savage backs. Lamar used a steam-roller type of oflfense but could not gain through the line. End runs were no more successful. Their lone touchdown was made when a kick was blocked behind our goal and a Lamar man was on it instantly. The game ended with La Junta in a scoring position. Our line com- posed of Eakes, Mayer, McCall, Moore, Hart, Fugit and Jackson, deserves special credit for our victory. CANON CITY 31— LA JUNTA 7 La Junta then met the strong much-advertised Canon City aggregation. With the exception of one man Canon had the same team that beat La Junta 6-0 in the long-remembered, three-game i)lay-off in the semi-finals the year before. Canon had beaten everything in that part of the state by impressive sct)res when they met the determined L. J. team. 1928 ) g [34 ] La Junta received the first kick-riff, and with Capt. Dutch Ritchhart hearing the hrunt of attack, advanced to Canon ' s 17 yard hne. A score seemed Hkely hut Schweninger ' s pass was incomplete over the goal line and Canon took the hall. Aided hy short screen passes and jahs at the line they worked their way up the field. -Mercer, fleet half-hack of Canon scored on a wide end run. The L. J. Tiger.s were disheartened l)y the failure to score when in position, and the cjuick touchdown of Canon. The line played loo.sely but tightened at times. Canon was held four times for downs within the ten vard line. Nevertheless the half ■ ended 18-0. Coming back in the third quarter the Tigers fought l)itterly. Canon could not gain as they had through the line. Hart and Mayer were in a large part responsible for stopping the Canon plays, although Fugits at tackle and Moore or Townsend at Center were consistent on defense as well as on offense. Toward the middle of the quarter Schweninger intercepted one of Mercer ' s short passes, and with neat interference ran 60 yards for a touchdown. Richards converted the extra point. The score was then 18-7. Given heart, the L. J. Tigers ' onrush gave the fans hope of a victory. Using Schweninger and Richards, liy passing, intermingled with running from punt formation, and Captain Ritchhart hitting the center of the hne and Del Ritchhart running short end rims advanced the team steadily in the third quarter, but the Tigers failed to score more. The thrilling third quarter at Canon will not soon be forgotten. .■ s the time of play grew shorter the Tigers resorted more to passes. In the last few minutes they grew desperate. Canon took advantage of the breaks and scored two touchdowns in the final minutes. We lost this game, 31-7. Thus ended the season of 1927 — one of the most successful in the historv of the school 7 928p T m A I 15 I r, THE REVEILLE Gvf ? as etball Squad ig27 ' 2S Basketball practice started the last week in Novemljer. There were two practice games at the very beginning ' of the season, one with Swink and the other with Rocky Ford. An inter-class tournament was also held. In this the. Juniors were victorious. The members of these class teams received numerals. The Southern Colorado League started playing basketball on January 6. The La Junta girls, having an open date, played Cheraw a practice game, and were defeated 33-20. ( )n January 16. the team played its first league game with ( )rdway and was defeated 25-30. This was partly due to the fact that some of the regular plaj ' ers were ineligible. The next week, on January 2, the team went to Fowler and won by a score of 36-15. Newland was the star of this game, making twenty- three points. Elliott and Wilson played a good game at center. Doan and Rich did the best guarding that had Ijeen shown so far in the season. Rich showed up exceptionally well. The following week the team went to Rocky Ford. The Meloneers were defeated by a score of 25-16. In this game the centers played with unusually good team work. ( )n January 28, Las Animas arrived on the scene and one of the fastest games of the season was played. . x the half the score was 13-12 in favor of La Junta. In the second half the teams were evenly matched, but Las Animas won by two points. The work of the guards in this game was fine. Doan did a good job of guarding .Sanistevans, and Rich allowed the other forward only two points. On February 3 the girls ' team went to Cheraw for a practice game and were defeated 20-17. The ne.xt league game was with Ordway, f 36 1 THE REVEILLE }ra Staley, C; Irelan, F; Chiltcm. Cnacli ; Newland.

The center worked more smoothly tlian e er l)efore. Rocky I ' ord came down here on February 21. (Jur team was victorious. The final score was 35-10. Newland made thirty points arid played an unusual jijanie at forward. Irelan ' s team-work and passing was perfect. Wilson played a .good .game at center. )n h ' eljruary 2 . the teams went to Las Animas. The .girls played a great .game in the first half, winning 6-5. Doan held Sanistevans to two field goals. In the second half Cooke, of Las Animas, l)roke loose and made sixteen ])oints. As a result the girls were defeated by a score of . 1-16. ewland made sixteen points and was then moved to jumping center. Wilson ]:)layed a good game. The Fowler Grizzlies came to Lajunta on Fel)ruary 25. Tlie final score was 30-18 in favor of the Tigresses. This was the team ' s final league game. The girls took second place in the league. Happy Wilson, the Cai)tain. was always a hard tighter and jjlayed consistently. Newland made 155 points in the ten games that were played. Last year she ]5layed jumping center, but she has developed into a first class forward. Jo Irelan, although not the highest scorer, played a very fast passing game, and was responsible for many of the points that were made. This was Hutchins ' first year at playing. She improved as the season progressed. Doan is a natural born guard and seemed to be the best guard in the valley. If Doan keeps on she should make all-state guard. Rich showed much improvement over last year and played a good game as guard. Her strong point was breaking up dribbles. The reserve strength of the squad was quite strong with Eva Cook as a good sub for guard and forward; Maxey as a sub for running center: Hanson and Castleman were fine subs for guards. The team journeyed to Manitou and Colorado Springs on March 9th and 10th. Fridav evening, March 9th, they played the team at the Manitou High School and defeated them 26-20. The following evening they played the girls ' team from the Beth-El Hospital and defeated them 35-11. La Junta should have an excellent girls team next vear, as none of the squad graduate.

This is the first time in fourteen years that the fighting Tiger quintet has hrought the championship to La Junta. We are proud of them and we have a right to he. The season opened late again this year, with six letter men and thirty other fellows each seeking for a position on the team. It took Coach Penner l)ut a short time to build up a squad of regulars that made history for the school. With a few practice games to get the team in condition the Tigers tore and clawed up Swink, (iarden City, Junior College and Cheraw with easy scores. The League opened with the Tiger quintet in perfect condition and La Junta made short work of the big Ordway team by a score of 39-2L The game was fast but the Tigers outplayed and out- fought the foreign invaders. The team, the following week, journeyed to Fowler where they met their only league defeat of the season by a score 24-16. It was fast and furious from the start. The Tigers played good ball but failed to hit the goal. Did this kill the Tiger spirit? No 1 ! It only gave them more with which to battle the rest of the reason. The following week the Orange and Black met their ancient rivals. Rocky Ford and Las . nimas. They swept Rocky Ford otif of their feet by a score of 42-18. Las Animas ' Trojans were the next victims by a score of 33-21. The team then had a week to rest and a ])ractice game with Cheraw which they took after a hartl struggle 25-23. 1928 [40] THE REVEILLE - Tackson, C; Eakes, F; Bartholomew, P ; Herndon, F. The team then started on the second la]) and took out .)rd vay, in a rough game, Ijy a score of 29-23. Rocky Ford then fell hy the wayside with a score of 30-25. It was a fight to the finish hut the Tigers nosed out their old rivals for the second time this season. Las Animas next suffered from the slaughtering attack of the Orange and the Black and knelt to the Tigers ' to a score of 21-9. They scored only one field goal in the game, thus showing the perfect working machine of the Tiger defense. The La Junta quintet was now standing in a tie for first place hy the defeat of Fowler hy Ordway in a close and hard fought game. For the last game of the season and for the championship. Fowler journeyed to La lunta for a deciding match. liefore a tense and packed crowd in the La lunta auditorium the La Junta Tigers won a game that is heyond all douht the greatest game ever witnessed in the La Junta school. The Tigers gained a small lead at the start of the game and were only able to hold it liy their smooth running offense and defense. When the final whistle blew the Tigers were leading 28-21, It was a great game and a great day for La Junta which will be hard to forget. With the League over with, the team began practicing for the state elimina- tion tournament. They journeyed to I ' ueblo and met the fast St. Patrick Hi Sham- rocks. It was a bitter game to the finish. At the end of the game the score being 16 all. The Tigers had given all they had and were unable to keep the pace set by the Irish lads who scored seven points in the five minutes of e.xtra play. This defeat was no disgrace for St. Patrick later took the State cham- pionship and went to Chicago. The local team next went to a tri-state tournament held at Liberal. Kansas. They bumped oft ' Syracuse, Kansas 27-11 in a hot game. But lost to the fast Liberal team by a score of 31-22, ' Fhe Tigers then trounced Perryton, Tex,, for third place by a score of 35-12, Mayer, star guard and captain of the La Junta team, was chosen all tournament guard, while Eakes and Jackson placed on the second team. Eakes was high point man from La Junta, scoring 46 pomts at the tournament. i I I [41 1 THE REVEILLE W J Cole, F; Shasteen, G; Fugits. G; Mayer, G. The team brought home a beautiful trophy for the school. The following week the divisional tournament was held in La Junta. The Tigers ' drew Manitou and made short work of them by a score of 39-13. They were next to meet Colorado Springs. They have one of the be.st teams in the state, having represented Colorado in the national tournament last year. The Tigers fought hard and played good basketball but were unable to overcome a large lead made at the first of the game. The final score being 30-14. We are proud of the fact that we held the tournament champions to such a small score. It is believed if the Tigers had been hitting as they had in games before, the score would have been different. It has been a great year for La Junta. Champions in Football. Basketball and Debate. Several of the best players graduate. Captain Mayer of the squad, a steady and dependable player, played a wonderful game at guard, earning a position on the all-vallev team. Inigit, another Senior, held up the standard for old L. J. H. S., playing a real game his last year in high school. Jackson, playing his last year, has a record to be proud of, a wonderful defensive man and selected as center on the all-valley team. Eakes also turns in his suit, having played his last game for old L. |. H. S. Eakes not only made the all-valley team but made a new record, scoring 118 points during the season to the previous record of 87. His playing will long be remembered. Bartholomew, Shasteen, Herndon and Cole played good basketball and will wear the Orange and Black next year. The subs this year have made the team what it is and have received little credit. Rizzuto, Carder, Lee, Grego, Brown, Burshears, Judkins and DeChamps, and many others have been out to practice every night and worked hard. Any of these will be ready and able to fill the shoes of the Seniors going out and dt) it well. With the jinx broken we feel that the school will be well represented next year and will surely make up for the last fourteen years. It has been a great season for La Junta and we hope that the next will lie only the more successful. ■? 5 [42 ] i THE REVEILLE }te-n - - L ii jfeg The 1927 track season was successful. A galaxy of ten men contributed to La Junta ' s success this season. Bartholomew, MUiott, Schweninger, Rice, Halstead, Rizzuto, Jackson, Lowe, H. Hampton and McConnell. In a dual meet with Las Animas, La Junta scored 103 points to the Trojans ' 2i. Rice was high point man with 30. This was the first Tiger victory. The third annual Invitation meet here saw the clashing of ten teams. Pueblo, Central and Centennial proved to be the most vicious contenders, scoring respec- tively 47 and 31, but here again the Tigers were on top with 58, winning the third annual invitation meet for the third consecutive time. Rice of La Junta was high point man. This was the second victory for La Junta. The following week the Tiger mile relay team, Halstead, Elliott, Schweninger and Bartholomew went to the Boulder relays. Running the outside lane, the team won their heat by 100 yards or more. At no time was any Tiger runner pressed. When Bartholomew finished with the second runner just rounding the curve on the 440 track, the team had broken the state mile relay record by 2.2 seconds. The next heat was fast. Fort Collins and Greeley fought nip and tuck all the way. The winner of this. Fort Collins, ran the mile in 3 35.6 seconds, bettering our mark bv 2 seconds. When all the time was computed the Tigers had i.;m; £ ii! %i -M N- g ' ' : ' i? i - 9 28 [43 1 placed 3rd. La Junta feels certain that if her team had been in the faster heat there would have been a different story to tell. Nevertheless, this was a victory for the four Tigers. The ne.xt Saturday La Junta was crowned Southern Colorado League Cham- pions after the league meet held at Rocky Ford. Leading their nearest competitor. Rocky Ford, by points of 84-25. the Tigers made a larger score for the meet than any team in history. Harry Hampton was high point man. He broke the record in the pole vault and won the low and high hurdles. Halstead featured m the sprints and Bartholomew won the 440-880-mile all in one afternoon — breaking the record in the mile. Lowe was first in the discus throw and many Tigers placed in other events. So once again La Junta was crowned champions of the Southern Colorado League. The cumulus of the 1927 season was the winning of the splendid Garden City hivitation meet cup in the meet held at Garden City, Kansas. Four states were represented in this contest. Halstead placed in the 50 and in the 220 and Rice placed in the javelin and 220 low hurdles. Harry Hampton won the high hurdles, was third low hurdles and won the ])ole vault, going over at 11 feet 1 inch to set a record. He was again high point man, scoring 11 of the 18 4 points. So La Junta came home conquerors over teams from four other states, budding the 1927 track season with the last blossom of success. s: 1 928 I 44 ] Frances Everiiart, liditor-iu-Chicf Walter Knodel, Business Maiiaycr Lii-A WitiTCOMr., Literary Critic R.

The forepart of the year was spent in breaking in inex- perienced speakers by a series of comical debates. After much deliberation on such subjects as Round or Square Roosts for Chickens. the possibilities of the Use of Soap for Adolescent Youth and the probabilities of the Federal Gov- ernment Taking Over Santa Claus Workshop, the club settled down to discuss the rights and wrongs, and to go into detail about the regular question for the year — Resolved: That the United States Government Should Construct and Maintain the Boulder Dam Project According to the Current Swing-Johnson Bill. With little work done and speeches still in the rough, the various teams secured practice debates with Las Animas, Hartman and Eads. Then, as the league opened with La Junta taking the negative side of the question at Las Animas, we gained our first victory. The tables turned and on meeting Rocky Ford we suffered our first defeat. Again we met Las Animas, taking the affirma- tive side, and annexed another victory. A complete loss or a tie depended on the next debate with Rocky Ford. After hard fighting in both constructive speeches and refutation, we won the decision and placed ourselves in a tie with Rocky Ford, as had happened very often in years gone by. The play-off was at Swink, and because it was to be a great struggle, a large number of persons attended this debate. Val Marmaduke of Pueblo acted as efficiency judge and our affirmative team, consisting of Henry Bagwell, Charles Simmons and Ivan Schweninger presented wonderful constructive arguments and even more wonderful refutation, and won the victory, making us Arkansas Vallev Champions for the first time in fourteen years. We also contended successfully for the championshij) of two other districts and entered on the third. ( )ut of fifteen debates, we lost only two. These have been the accomplishments of our debate club and particularly the debate team and our excellent coach. Aliss R.

At football games they were always ]3resent, with La junta right behind them, constantly cheering. Perhaps we even owe some of our football victories to the encouragement given by the band. Then the operetta was given as the apex of the Glee Club season. This operetta, which was really a work of art, displayed not only amazing musical ability but also outstanding dancing talent. The Orchestra and Se.xtette proved themselves worthy of great praise in furnishing entertainment, both in school and out in public. Due to the untiring efforts of our musical supervisor, Mr. Leslie, La Junta has built up a music circle that will long be the pride of the school and the city. A few more years of similar effort will place us as unri ale(l champions of the ' alley ! f 49 1 ' mrmr r ne arsa THE REVEILLE .: fc.ms  3m. c( 192 a B I 50 1 fr S SF m-.Jmr.mf r .imm rj HE -REV EILLE lite - J ational Honor Society Margaret Thorpe Frances Everhart i Ruth Glase Miss Bosweu., Sponsor Margaret iMn.i.ER.

Physics Qlass T w Value of Physics in High School Education The study of Physics in high school education is of very great vakie to the student. It tells him much about things which are going on around him that he would never know otherwise. He learns the fundamental principles of engineering, electricity, radio, gasoline engines, automobiles, steam engines and electric motors, which is of great benefit to him. In Physics one finds the uses of the six simple machines, and ht)w these simple machines are combined to form the great machines of today. He finds the uses of the inclined plane, and the pulley, and how they are combined with some of the other simple machines into large machines. Physics teaches one the important facts about automobiles. It tells how the spark is delivered to the gas mixture and how power is derived from the explosion. He learns how the cam which controls the valves operates : also he learns the use of the clutch, universal joint, and diff ' erential, and how each is made. Another important factor in Physics is electricity, and especially that pertain- ing to the radio. Physics tells one how the sound is transmitted on the waves of ether and the speed at which they travel and many other important things. For all these reasons it is very important for a high school student to take a course in Physics. 79 2 6 [ 52 1 TJic I a i e of High School Chemistry High school chemistry gives a person a broad knowledge of everyday needs, teaches him to reason and to develop his own ideas and opinions. One thing chemistry teaches is cleanliness. This seems to be a small item but the average student who has had some chemical e.xperience realizes its importance and practices it. One item that may prove tti be valuable in a high school chemical course is the choosing of one ' s vocation through its intluence. For an example: John Jones is interested in his chemistry: he is successful and learns to like the work. Follow- ing this he inquires and gets researcli material on just where, when and how a good chemist is needed. On doing this he finds so many o] ]3ortimities for a chemist, he becomes so enthused over tlie work he decides to take up chemical work in college. In college he finds the work somewhat harder and gets some real practical experience in going right after a thing in order to succeed. Several vears later we find our John Jones out of college looking for a position. He finds every opportunity in positions ranging from the rubber industry to the oil industry in all countries of the world. In conclusion, we, the Chemistry class of 1928, recommend high school chemistry as a practical, useful and interesting subject ranking high among others that could be considered so. W.M.TER KNonEi,.

In fact, it is new in all schools of the West ; although it has been developed in the East for some time. There are only seven of these schools in the State of Colorado. Pueblo and Denver being the oldest. We are proud to know that La Junta High School ranks high in standard with the best class of schools in Colorado and others of the West as to having their high school vocational education. This trade school is to give to the student a chance of finding for himself what he thinks he might like to do, so he can get started early to develop along the line which attracts him. This is the mechanical age ; therefore, during this time boys want to know- more about this subject than any other. This high school has to offer a course in IMechanical Trades and Mechanical Arts. The trade unit gives a two year course of practical mechanical work on a productive basis, which consists of auto mechanics, general machinist, automotive starting and lighting, ignition and car- buretion. o.xy-acetylene welding and cutting of metals. Mechanical Arts gives a small touch of the most essential things needed in auto mechanics. This course is under the state plan for the administration of Vocational Educa- tion in Colorado, by the National ' ocational Education Act of the United States, and the State Board of X ' ocational Education at Fort Collins, Colorado.

As a project each boy drew a house plan and estimated the amount of lumber needed to construct it. Lectures were given by the Instructor outlining the work, and as the construction progressed individual instruction was given in the assembling of the different parts of the house. Special attention was given to door and window construction and to the cutting of the various types of rafters. In putting on the sheeting the boy was taught how the windows and doors were made air tight. The hips and valleys of the roof were properly sheeted and metal placed in the valleys ready for the shingles. Various pitches and types of roofs were constructed on these houses, always keeping in mind that a practical roof was the better one. This work has given the boy a knowledge of house construction, makmg it possible for him to do either new work or remodel an old building. He has been taught methods of squaring foundations, how to use the rafter scale on the steel square and make adjustments for unequal nms. With this exjjerience and train- ing the boy has come to realize that To know what to do is wisdom ; to know how to do it is skill; and to do a thing as it should be done is a service. U. L. Hi.
