Usually tl-ese are legendary characters, but we of L.P.Hi gh School are most fortunate in possessing several real fairy godfathers. They hold within their power to grant or to take away our many desires. For years we have dreamed of a new High School and Junior College. In the past few years our fairy godfathers, the members of the Board of Education, succeeded in granting our wish with the aid of Mrs. Blow and Mrs. Matthiessen. Their tireless and generous efforts resulted in the construction of the new building. This magnificent edifice is a creation beyond all our dreams. It is as an enchanted palace with its beautiful architecture and conservative cut-stone trimmings in the Tudor-Gothic style. For all of this we are indebted to the unselfish devotion of much time and labor of the board and administration. Our wonderful new auditorium is the largest in the county, seating 1,410 persons, and it enables concerts, dramatic performances and conventions of all kinds to be held in the Tri-Cities. The stage of the auditorium is wide and deep and well- equipped with all the appliances and devices of modern stage-craft. It is also an ideal place for all class plays. Furthermore as a school we wish to thank the Board of Education for its con- tinual and mighty efforts to better school life. In order to express our appreciation and gratitude for the Board's many accomplishments, we dedicate this page to that most deserving group. . -..AW 7 ,, , ..-. ,..., Page Ten I I .0 Swl IIT XV I LSON CLANCY KEEGAN BOARD OF EDUCATION G.

A book is the distillate, the pre- cipitate ofa human soul, and libraries are the savings banks of all the thought, of all the emotions, of all the science and experience of the past,-a capital from which we can draw without decreasing its wealth, and which exacts no interest from its borrowers. We talk of material thrift and material economy, but we rarely reflect that in the literature of books is preserved the spiritual thrift of the world. g 4 f Q Q-J Superintendent.

Well, I'm here to tell you that they are a mighty good sort. Of course, teachers will be teachers, but when one realizes what a terrific strain they are under,ione forgives them for often carrying that I'm a slave driver expression and an perfectly fierce mood. However, off duty they can joke and laugh like any of us old-timers and that reminds me, we had quite a time with the Annual Staff this years They wanted to place the faculty section next to the joke section but we had to draw the line somewhere. The Seniors wanted that corner for themselves. Now, don't think that the faculty is perfect because I know they have serious defects. The other day I accidentally heard of one of the extreme cases and shall tell it to you if you promise not to repeat it. One of our big men around school is a simply atrocious bridge player. He just can't get his mind on the game. I would not dare to breathe the name. Occasionally and always privately a perfect English vocabulary relaxes into the crudest of slang and we are badly shocked. Sometimes with a flash of their inner selves they innocently recommend a certain movie, and at school socials we are often compelled to stand aside while these sober classroom slave-drivers cut capers with which we would not dare attempt to compete. . . In spite of some of these faults, they are our friends, fair, helping and always ready to do. their duty. I really don't mean to be preachy 'cause I never expect to be a teacher. However, they deserve unlimited credit for having been able to bear up under our ignorance, playful tricks and dumb questions, don't they? Whenever I think of the faculty as an asset to mankind, I also think of Shakes- peare. He did not have a faculty to oppress him and the result-great works of art. I shall not go into that for I'm afraid someone will get into trouble and besides, Shakespeare was the one case out of ten. Anyway, here's hoping that some day we shall think back and be able to say-truthfully, All that I am or ever hope to be, I owe to my dem' teachers.

Having written everything else long ago, we are forced at last to discuss the all-pretentious Seniors. For the benefit of the lower classmen we will endeavor to tell you just what a Senior is. He is mentallv a gloomy, disenchanted person, who leisurely shuffles about the dismal halls of our reputed House of Learning, with his arms burdened with books, trying to dodge work-and Mr. Kohin. With all his manly worries, he still has time to attend all the class games, school socials, go to the Majestic Theatre every night, absorb College Humor and the like. Most of all, Seniors will have their fun trying to lead the poor innocent Freshmen astray by sending them tp the office on questionable errands. With all this and more-he makes the Honor Roll. CThis is all very true, my fellow students, except the last statementj Let us know if there is anything else you would like explained, because before we forget: In all the organizations, the Seniors have loyally mingled the Red and Green of our school with the Blue and Gold of our class. Ere the Senior Class departs from this worthy haven, the faculty opens its heart, closes its eyes and with heart- felt relief says: The most loyal, most rogressive class is about to leave us. We cannot vision the coming year without tliem-et cetera. We must now mention the greatly worried- and hard-worked class officers. A Senior officer is a rather nice person to have around-when you can't find anyone else. They aren't such terribly good-natured persons, however, You see, our pres- ident, Kenneth Gehm, usually walks around in deep thought trying to solve al the problems of his fellow-Seniors, as he is blamed for everything the Seniors do. CBut o Seniors ever do anything wrong?D Our Vice-President, Geraldine Kreis, was elected to give our president some inspirations as how to- -?? Robert Schwen- dimann, our treasurer, a very much harassed individual who goes around with a sheaf of papers in one hand and a roll of bills Cnot money-the kind that calls for moneyj in the other hand and wonders where all the cash is goin to come from. Margaret Strohm is our verv capable secretary, who with the aid ofg the office, tries to keep all the important facts of our notorious class. Therefore, let us say that this Senior Class has been an asset to the School and has set a high standard of respect and recognition for all other classes of good old L-P. ' Page Twenty-four rakkllfe i - nv.: if :,.-..-M1221-.-.::..1--.M eC 1 ' ae, V 24 Q? THE SENIORS When we were freshmen bright and gay We entered L. P. every day, With smiling faces and clever brains We joined in all good sports and games. As Sophomores, we took an awkward way Of doing things, so teachers say, In football teams we always played, Yet we just couldn't make the grade. As Juniors, knowledge overflowed, In every class our faces glowed., The midnight oil we always burned, The old folks often seemed concerned. But now we're Seniors with little to say, For serious hours have come to stay, Life's vista opens with puzzling charm, The future sounds a new alarm. Genius burns from hand to heart, Making studies more an art, Big Ben calls us anxiously, We'll try to get work eagerly. The M. Sc H. a'top the hill, Its massive towers belch forth their fill Each hardy Senior of swarthy hand, Helps swell the glory of our land. The quarries yield with honest toil, The nati'on's glory from our soil, La Salle's contribution none too small, We'll try to please one and all.

THE ILLUSTRIOUS JUNIQRS HEN first the members of the remarkable class of 1919 entered the time- honored doors of La Salle-Peru, they did not stumble through them as every class before them and every class since them has done. They walked majestically through its halls, fully appreciating the significance of its aged walls and respecting the teachers, sophisticated by long years of experience. They did not adopt the air of wondering Freshmen, because they realized that they were no common class and that they were about to begin a high school career which would live throughout the ages. The Board of Education, knowing that an extraordinary class was being formed, immediately began work on a new high school. The class soon began to distinguish itself. It originated the now established Freshman Play and became an important factor in all school events. The class continued in this pace through its Sophomore year and are at present engaged in glorifying its Junior year. The lower classmen idealize them and try to follow as closely as possible in their footsteps, and the Seniors regret that they themselves came before this class and thus could not benefit by them. The Juniors have chosen Gerald Vroman to head them and, with their great foresight, have appointed Mungo Duncan to take up his work should he tire under his unending efforts to lead his class. Hedwig Lorencki, the choice of the Juniors as secretary, weaves the story of the class into a form to be put into the history of La Salle-Peru. Joseph Christopher heads the department of finance. The regard for conventionality demands a sergeant-at-arms and so Stuart Currie holds this position, but he has nothing to do most of the time because so well conducted a class needs no officer to enforce order. The students of La Salle-Peru have come to expect the juniors naturally to be the first in everything. Junior athletes are overburdened with championships, having provided keen competition even as Freshmen. The Juniors make up a large part of the music organizations and have distinguished themselves scholastically. If this account of the juniors did not have to go through the hands of the present Annual Staff something might be said regarding the annual that may be expected of this class when they become seniors but, since that is the case, no mention of the fact will be made. .,....i...--..-.....-..........-..........,....Y .....,. .-N.-- , ,M . ..-,- - -h'-L:--- f-::-'-- Page F my-two .. ,7..., l l u .l l E l 1 ll w 5 .

SOPHOMORE Ufropia SOPHOMORE seated at her desk in the Assembly Hall, blankly stares at an Ancient History. The Parthenon gradually converts itself into a heavenly temple of learning. The Grandfather clock in the long hallway strikes ten as hundreds of limousines roll up before this magnihcent edihce and an indifferent group of young men and ladies stroll into the building. Each is immediately met at the entrance by a valet or maid who escorts him or her to a private dressing room. At the stroke of ten-thirty the student body emerges from seclusion. lt is time for the first period classes. The Ballroom Dancing class congregates in the Blue Room while the Cosmetics Class meets just any place convenient. Countless other classes convene for the discussion of the problems of a modern flapper. At the end of each study period is a fifteen minute leisure period for recuperation. The Grandfather clock chimes the dinner hour. At this time, everyone goes to the Marine Dining Room for the midday meal. A separate menu is prepared for each delicate anatomy, the recipes being sent by wireless from Paris each day. All too soon two strokes of the clock call the Utopian to the afternoon classes. The auto-ology class is perhaps the most over-crowded. Cadillac sport model coupes are furnished by the school for this course. As a final examination each student must be able to drive at least seventy-five miles an hour. Strange to say no one has ever been known to flunk this course. In the summer time, the remainder of the afternoon is devoted to golf, yachting, canoeing, swimming, tennis, and the like, While in the winter there are skating, coasting, skiing, and occasional snowball tournaments. All work and no iplay makes Jack a dull boy, so at three-thirty there is a social gathering of the stu ent body in the Japanese Tea Room. A light refreshment is followed by bridge and dancing. At five o'c1ock school is dismissed. Just as the cars again gather before the build- ing, the temple reverts itself once more into the Assembly Hall. 'A sudden glance at the clock indicates that there are only five more minutes in which Miss Sopho- more must study ten pages of history.

THE WAY or ALL FRESHMEN All great things have humble beginnings. Our Freshman class of 197.7 floundered in a sea of obscurity and uncertainty on that sunny never-to-be-forgotten September day when, having been lcd to these portals by our mothers, we were forlornl left to expect the worst. We were green-the greenest Freshmen in the history ofYL-P. However, despite our weaknesses, no upper classman could ever accuse us of abandon- ing our tricycles at the school's front door or throwing away our half consumed lollipops. We, at least, had passed our teething stage. Members of the Faculty and of the Reception Committee successfully inveigled us into entering. They also did excellent work in rounding up all would-be Sffilg- glers and shooing them into the building. If we expected to be mobbed by fun-loving upper classmen, our fears soon disap- peared. The school had been turned over to the joyful antics of the infants . We were, on the other hand, petted, fondled, and called sweet children by these more sentimental Seniors who took such excellent care of us in showin us about our future home of work-or play? At the end of that erfect day we decided we might as well return on the morrow. It really wasn't as bad a place as we had been led to believe. We have proved that we are an unusual class. All records point toward that fact. Our humble beginning was a false alarm. Scholastically we shone. We are represented on the Honor Roll by a promising number of students. By all appear- ances we shall receive higher honors some day. The Faculty believes we should be somewhat restricted in securing scholastic credit for fear we will become upper class- men all too soon or that our hats will suddenly become too small. Foolish ideas! In musical events our treble notes lend atmosphere if not accuracy to all selections. It gives us exquisite pain to boast of such things, but records say we defeated the Seniors in basketba 1. When our men are numbered among the varsity-! To say more of our wonderful class would give us the appearance of being vain. Besides, we are merely at the beginning of our career. Class elections made us feel .very important. James Knauf and Dorothy Heister were elected as re resentatives to that erfect rulin bod -the Student Council. . . . . g. Y . Tom Duncan, our efficient president, is assisted by Louise Cook, our petite but cap- able vice-president. Virginia Butler is our very systematic, non-gum chewing secretary, while Robert Hildebrand takes care of the class funds, such as they are, for no Freshman class was ever known to be entrusted with much money. That leasure was left to the Senior Class. We are com limented on our rades, called R . ,, . . 3 . . kids in unguarded moments by our teachers, but given money-impossible! Harold Seghi acts as sergeant-at-arms when upper classmen go on rampages or feel la ful. When we are in need of advice, we have onl to o to Misses Nine, Per- P Y , , , Y S lowskl, Sedlacek or Mr. O Laughlin. We are, on the whole, an average class of gay, lively Freshmen, having our troubles but drowning them in optimism anduhigh spirits.

OGLESBY BRANCH HIGH SCHOOL The Oglesby High School has been a part of the main high school of La Salle- Peru for six years. The branch was established in order to relieve crowded condi- tions in the main building, and also to do away with student transportation diffi- culties. The Branch High School is favored by the people, for the enrollment has increased considerably in the few years of its existence. The course given is a general one, including Manual Training, Home Economics, English, General Mathematics, and General Science. These studies are correlated with studies given at the La Salle- Peru High School. To relieve the monotony, if it may be called such, of small school life, trips are made several times a semester to the main high school. The school has its own social functions which are always most successful. This year they presented an operetta entitled The Toreadors . Two years ago a basketball team was organized. This year Mr. Evans took charge of boys' athletics and the success of their team this year was partly due to his skillful coaching. Miss Weir of the main high school taught the girls of the Oglesby Branch in physical education. Page Fifty-:ix V r W A 1 Y I ll V.

Page Sixgy W -- - 2-f 1 I THE LIBRARY NDOUBTEDLY the focus of the academic activities of the La Salle-Peru Townshi High School and Junior College is the remarkable library which it has been the good fortune of the school to acquire through the generosity of private patrons and the liberal provision of the Township Board of Education. An unusually well-lighted room, twenty feet in height, with a floor space of fifty-one feet by twenty-two, easily rmits the housing of the sixty-three thousand or more volumes. The spacious walls accommodate severalxiarge oil paintin s. Two of these, The Sacrihce of Abraham, and Easter Sacrifice, are original oil canvasses ainted by golemcna, the son-in-law of Tiepolo, and were presented to the school by Mrs. Adele M. Blow of,La Salle. The third magnificent oil canvas was presented in the autumn of 197.5 by Mrs. C. H. Matthiessen of La Salle. This canvas is an oil copy by I an Salk the famous portrait of an old woman by Rembrandt in the Riiks Gallery, Amsterdam. Two other impressive aintings are the gift of the Class of 1915. They are copies in oil by Edward Salzman of pictures in the Igew York Public Library, Milton Dictating Paradise Lost by M. Munkacsy, and Rudolph II in the Laboratory of His Alchemist, I576, by V. Brozik. . But while the paintings and the numerous original etchings and engravin s ssessed by the school are a conspicuous feature of its aesthetic equipment, yet the school is most proud ofiits collection of books. The effort has here been made to purchase in every department the great standard classical works. Not only does it possess copies of works like the Encyclo aedia Britannica, Encyclopaedia Americana, the International Encyclopaedia, the Catholic and jewish Encyclopaedias, but it has ac uired the standard encyclopaedias of the different special sciences. It possesses dictionaries of nearly ail foreign languages and standard encvclopaedias in German and French. The object has been to establish a library from which authoritative information in any field can be obtained. Some fifty-one magazines are on file in the racks and include such periodicals as the New York Times, the London Times, L'Illustrati0n, etc. Besides these current magazines there are forty-eight magazines listed in the Readers' Guide for special reference work. In addition, four sections in the filing cabinet Contain pamphlet material, newspaper clippings, lantern-slides and postal cards which are conserved for future reference. This year the rofcssional librarian in charge has given special lectures to the Freshman and Sophomore hygiene classes about the placing of books on the shelves in the library, the meaning of the numbers on the books, and on how to use the books intelligently by understanding the location of the index, and the correct use of the card catalogue. The librarian also lectures to two s ecial rhetoric classes in junior col- lege and to a special debating class about the use ofthe periodical india: and the s cial reference books. The furnishings of the library, which will seat sixty students, were supplied the Library Bureau and include the usual standard equipment. The floor is covered with a heavy cork carpet, the windows and doors are of leaded lassg the illumination is semi-indirect and powerful. The excellence of the equip- ment and the richness ofgthe collection is due to the munificent gift of fifteen thousand dollars made by Mrs. Adele M. Blow and Mrs. C. H. Matthiessen in 1919-197.0 as well as to the generous budget which the Township Board of Education has supplied for the purchase of books. It can be easily seen that the students appreciate the library because the average period attendance is twenty-live while the average daily attendance is two hundred. During the school year from 191.6-2.7, thirty-nine thousand upils were using the library, and over fourteen thousand books were taken home for reference besides tfiose which were used in the library. This year the librarian states the number will he even greater. P.1gr .Y 2.11 y-mir 1' 'Y Xi V1 Y -' 1 , X .- . ,vi 'ea' Cdr' is?

' THE BUREAU OF EDUCATIONAL COUNSEL HE Bureau of Educational Counsel is in its lifth year of activity. At the be- ginning of the school year there was a complete change of counseling stalf. Miss Elma Olson, first director of the Bureau, resigned during the summer of 1917 to accept an appointment as Assistant in the Mental Hygiene Department of Yale University. During the four years of Miss Olson's directorship, the Bureau established its present unique program which is attracting attention, both here and abroad, of educators and others interested in the intensive study of the individual. Miss Olson's 1913-2.6 report of the work has been favorably reviewed in French, English, and American professional magazines. It, with Mr. McCormack's classical intro- duction, has brought from various parts of the world many comments which might well be gratifying to. the workers and to those who have made the work possible. Miss Harriot Lee West, Assistant to the Director in 192.6-17, is now doing child guidance work in a mental hygiene clinic in Connecticut. The new staff is continuing the program of the Bureau, the chief objective of which is the study of the needs of the individual student. The maximum develop- ment of personality for each is considered through a scrutiny of his behavior, per- sonality traits, physical health and hygiene, interests, vocational desires, attitudes, and life plans. This scrutiny, which is shared by the student in private interview, with analysis, often reveals untapped resources or unfortunate limitations which require adjustments of varying degree. The resources of the individual and of the community are enlisted in the adjust- ing process: Part-time employment problems are solved through the co-operation of local business firms. Part-time and vacation jobs are secured through the Bureau. Al- though such placements are considered an important hase of the Bureau's work, attention is given to the broader principles of vocationa aptitudes in career-planning for permanent choices. Health problems are referred to family physicians. Local doctors and dentists have shown a uniform spirit of helpfulness. The personnel of the Hygienic Insti- tute act in an advisory capacity. The facilities of the Institute are available for use and prove invaluable in emergency cases. Students' uersonality and emotional difficulties are analyzed to bring about a better self-un erstanding. In this connection the help of the Institute for Juvenile Research can not be overestimated. A psychologist and a psychiatrist visit the school about once a month. Their recommendations are carried out by the Coun- selors who are trained in psychiatric social work. The student's appreciation of this service is indicated by the visitors well-filled programs while at the school. The scope of the work of the Bureau has increased laterally this year. Person- nel work has been extended to the Oglesby Branch High School. Special work has been done in nutrition and in speech correction. A browsing library for vocational information is being accumulated. When space permits, students desiring information about life choices of work may feel free to browse and devour such material as the Bureau has been able to collect. Already there are books, pamphlets, and magazines describing artisan trades, office work, nursing service, aviation, social work, and work in a number of the pro- fessions.

V'5sd'u'-Q' Hai:-cvvg-gl iw R THE HYGIENIC INSTITUTE N the western part of LaSalle, Illinois, is an unrivalled institution spoken of as the Hygienic Institute. The full name, however, is the Hygienic Institute for LaSalle, Peru, and Oglesby, Illinois. The idea originated in the mind of the late F. W. Matthiessen of LaSalle, and by 1914 he had succeeded in uutting his plan into operation. It was not until 1917 that it was legally charteret under the laws of Illinois, as a corporation for the purpose of protecting the health of the tri-cities. The first hoard of trustees consisted of Ernest Roth, President, George A. Wilson, Treasurer, -I. I-lenry Cox, Charles Nadler and D. Ross Fraser. It cannot be said that the institute is a part of the high school in the sense that it is controlled by it, but as the building is the property of the high school, a rental of 100 dollars is paid every 99 years to the high school. The heat for the building is obtained from the high school plant. In this building are housed all the activities of the health department. On the lirst Iloor is the main office, a medical library for use of the physicians of the communityg a chemical and .bacteriological labora- tory, a dental room, a small sterilizing room, and a general purpose room. On the second floor is a room with a small oliice connecting, used for the Emma Matthiessen Chancellor Memorial Infant Welfare Station. There is also a nurses' study and record room, nurses' supply room, a small kitchen, a large class and demonstration room, and a small stogage 1'U0lll. For the past fourteen years the Institute has been carrying on the health work for the high school as well as the public schools. Twice a year, thorough examina- tions are given to all students of L.-P., and circulars are SCIIE annually to the CZIX- payers, enlightening them concerning the welfare of their children. In addition to physical examinations, the Institute also carries on clinical work. They consider it their duty to render medical and dental aid to all those unable to pay tl1e regularfees. For seven years the public water supplies of the tri-cities were without contamina- tion, but due to the high water in the fall of 1916, the LaSalle city water supply showed evidence of contamination. The Bacteriologists of the Institute at once obtained a chlorinator. After chlorination was established the contamination was eliminated. The city is now wrotected against future contamination for a permanent chlorinator has been installe . It is probably safe to make the statement that there is nowhere in the world an institution similar to the Hygienic Institute and one that is of more value to a community.

V.,-LA, THE CAFETERIA HE Cafeteria was opened by Mr. McCormack in 1907 to care for the students who came from Princeton, Ladd, Spring Valley, Greenville, Ottawa, and other neighboring towns. Miss Griffin, who is still with us, had charge of the in- stitution for two years alone until her sister came to help her, she died a few months ago after many years of faithful service. Mrs. Schalla, the assistant-manager, has rendered several years of excellent service to the Cafeteria. Miss Dorothea Heilstedt, the cashier, has had charge of the financial accounting of its management for the last two years. The cafeteria has always been on the third floor. Previously the Music Room was on the third floor, and when the room was taken over for the Cafeteria, the open ceiling was dropped, plastered, and new windows and doors added, the alcoves and bay windows were placed in the reconstructed room. From time to time the steam table, electric dish-washer, a coffee urn, and a cocoa urn hasge been added to the kitchen equipment. In 1917 new enameled Sani-Onyx tables and bentwood chairs were installed, which added greatly to the appearance of the room. The capa- city of the room at present is 32.0, but can be increased easily to 400. The receipts of the first day in February, 1907, amounted to 31.65, and now the average is in excess of S33.oo. The Cafeteria is now self-supporting, though the Board of Education provides for the expense of gas, water, and a part of the expense for help. The Board provided the original equipment and in 1919, a subsidy of SIO0.00 was given. The prolits accruing from the receipts will be used for the re- placement and installing of new equipment. Originally, coupons Cas the present Oglesby bus ticketsl were sold to the students, but as the coupons were so frequently lost, that practice was discontinued.

The course selected should depend upon the individual pupil's future needs to be determined after consultation with his advisers. Four years have hitherto been required for the completion of a course, but this period is artificial and for immature pupils hve years are strongly recommended. COLLEGE PREPARATORY COURSE The purpose of this course, which requires fifteen academic units plus Music and Physical Culture for graduation, is to prepare pupils for admission to the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Engineering Commerce, etc. The graduate from it, on presentation of a certihcate in each subject, signed by the Prin- wig be admitted without examination, on the subjects taken, to all colleges and universities of the i le X est. It is to be remembered that the College Pre aratory Course is designed for a special purpose and re- supposes that some important subjects omitted From it are taken up afterward at college. It is, theregre, not so well adapted as the General Course to the practical needs o pupils who finish their education with the High School. GENERAL, ELECTIVE, AND MANUAL ARTS COURSES A sli htly wider range of electives is offered in these courses. The required work, as given below in the schedule, may be altered with the consent of the Principal. Pupils having a taste in any special line, such as drawing, history, science or literature, may follow their special bent. At the same time some symmetry of selection will be demanded. At least one foreign language, two years of history, and some Manual Training or Domestic Science are recommended. If four years of Manual Training or Drawing are taken the diploma may read Manual Arts or Arts. By proper selection of work, graduates from these courses may be admitted to the Engineering and Science Courses of the Universities. - TEACHERS' AND NORMAL, PREPARATORY COURSE This course has been carefully planned for pupils who desire to teach in the grades or who afterwards intend to pursue their studies at the State Normal chools. It does not admit to College. The course should not be deviated from in the slightest particular, save by pupils who wish to spend five years in the high school, in which case the year and a half course in Algebra and in Geometry are recommended, and a two years' course in Latin. The reoiuirements in Drawing, Domestic Science, Music and the work in Science are especially insisted upon as in ispensable for a modern teacher in the grades. Pupils going to Junior College should not take the high school Teachers' Course. COMMERCIAL COURSE . The Commercial Course is designed to be of the same thoroughness and length as the other courses. Boys and girls from the eighth grade cannot be made into business men and women by a six months' or a year's course. Parents should recognize this fact, and provide for the future success of their children by having them take the full course as planned. The course does not admit to college.

LA SALLE-PERU TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL COMMENCEMENT NINETEEN TWENTY-SEVEN HE Twenty-ninth annual commencement of the La Salle-Peru Township High School was held in the high school auditorium Tuesday evening, June 15th. There was a large crowd in attendance. Excellent music was furnished by the high school orchestra under the direction of Mr. Bowers, the Glee Clubs of the high school and college furnished accompaniment for the beautiful cantata, The Three Springs, by Bliss. The processional of graduates was led by the class president Paul Duncan, who delivered to his fellow classmates the presidents address. Arthur Seepe gave a short talk in presenting the class memorial to the school. The High School orchestra rendered an excellent number in the Unhnished Symphony, First Move- ment-Allcgro, by Schubert. Dr. R. L. Lyman, ofthe Department of English, University of Chicago, gave the address ofthe evening, Successward, in which he gave the students a warning to avoid a propaganda which sought to discourage thoroughness of school tasks. Professor McCormack made a very excellent address in presenting the class to the President of the Board and recommending them for graduation. The class was received by the President of the Board of Education for the Twenty-ninth annual presentation of diplomas. In presenting the diplomas Mr. Wilson made mention of the fact that the total enrollment for the school year was 718, including the Oglesby Branch High School and the junior College. He said that in 1905 the enrollment was less than loo with a faculty of fourteen teachers, while for the year 191.6-197.7 the faculty numbered thirty-seven. ' He further said that the consequent pressure upon the room space of the high school building, despite the additions of the Recreation building, the annex to the Recreation building and a floor to the annex had made necessary the lengtheninlg of the school day one period and continuous teaching from 8 o'clock in the morning until 4:30 in the a ternoon and that for the last two years the students had been obliged to double up in the use of lockers. Another result of the pressure had been that nearly all of the teachers for many years past have been teaching in two, three and sometimes four different rooms necessitating the transfer of books, apparatus and maps. The present auditorium in the basement of the old high school building now does not hold the entire school and the faculty and is inadequate for junior class plays, com- mencement exercises and other public meetings. He said this pressure will be relieved by the new building, which will contain an auditorium seating 147.0 people, an entire floor will be devoted to manual training, embracing a program of auto mechanic shops, drafting room, college engineering, wood shop, wood working machine room, and a storage room, a floor containing ten additional class rooms, administrative ollices, a mimeographing room, a conference room, and a book store, a floor devoted entirely to the junior College, containing a Biology laboratory and lecture room, a Chemistry laboratory and lecture room with store, six class rooms and a junior College study hall, and, in addition to all of this several hundred full length Ventilating lockers were to be installed in the walls of the corridors. Mr. Wilson spoke ofthe Bureau of Educational Council as a notable educational experiment which had been carried on for the last four years. A report of the work ofthe Bureau of Educational'CounciI for the years IQL3-1916 was issued by the Board in February last and 5,000 copies circulated. The Bureau of Educa- tional Council endeavors to give every student in the High School and junior College expert advice on studies, occupations, and the conduct generally that will lead to human happiness and success. This report was favorably received as the lirst systematical and complete attempt of t is kind made in the United States. The general demand for it and the approbation with which it was met from all sides caused the Board of Education to have printed a second edition of 4,000 copies. The bureau has received numerous replies fron1 prominent educators and administrators throughout the country. President Wilson presented diplomas to eighty-three graduates, and announced the class honors, and awards for the academic year 192.6-1917.

' CS' Q DEDICATION EXERCISES NEW BUILDING UNIT AND MATTHIESSEN MEMORIAL AUD1ToRIUM HE New Building and the Matthiessen Memorial Auditorium was dedicated Sunday evening, April xgth. Mr. McCormack introduced to an audience of twelve hundred people the Hon. Francis G. Blair, of Springfield, State Superintendent of Public Instruction who delivered the dedicatory address. The program was interspersed with musical numbers by the high school orchestra and band, violin solo, Lengende by Wieniawski, played by Paul Kotz, and a wood-wind ensemble, by Paul Gorenskowski, Max Gorenskowski, George Herbolsheimer and Joseph Leavens, playing the Rosary . The invocation of the Divine Blessing was asked by Father J. J. Martin, pastor of St. Patrick's Catholic Church of La Salle, Reverend Wilford H. Bvans, pastor of the First Congregational'Church of Peru said the benediction. Mr. G. A. Wilson, Sr. president of the Township High School Board praised Mr. F. W. Matthiessen, Mrs. Eda Matthiessen, and Mrs. Adele Blow for their generous contributions toward the erection of the new building. In concluding he said, I hope that the boys and girls of La Salle and Peru Townships will always remember the Matthiessen family and the interest it has shown in our school. Mr. Blair, in congratulating the people of the community for voting for the construction of the new building said, The civic spirit of a people can be measured by what they do for their children. In closing his address he said, I, as Superintendent of Public Instruction, and for the State of Illinois congratulate you, and, on behalf of the State, I now declare this building dedicated to the education of our youth. , INSCRIPTIONS IN NEW BUILDING The new La Salle-Peru Township High School Building has been built with a view to acquaint the students with the masters in every line of education. The sayings of these men, their names and their most famous words have been employed as decorative devices throughout the building and the auditoriumt. Two heavy carved stones surmount the arch of the main academic entrance which faces Chartres Street at the east side of the new structure, and upon these have been carved the utterings of Francis Bacon and Socrates, perhaps one of the most famous Greeks of his time. At the left-hand is the inscription, The Sovereignity of Man Lieth Hid in Knowledge , from the works of Bacon, and under that is the shield of Trinity College from which he was graduated. To the right are carved the famous words of Socrates, Not living, But Living Well, Is the Thing of Supreme Importance, under which in relief is the shield of Athens. In the terrazzo floor of the main floor rotunda is the sentence from Juvenal, Maxima Debetur Puero Reverentiaf' which translated means, The highest reverence is due to the child. The inscription is laid in the floor in Gothic letters and lies directly beneath the opening in the second floor rotunda. Over the Fifth Street entrance to the school are carved in stone the outlined representations of the coats-of-arms of the cities of Laon and Chartres, France, the cities associated with the early French ex- plorers of this region. The coat-of-arms of Robert, Chevalier de La Salle, after which this city was named, the coat-of-arms of Rouen, his birthplace, and the coat-of-arms of Louis XIV have been carved over the center portal. The object of the designs is to commemorate the history of the early explorations of the middle west by the daring La Salle and his companions. While the explorers and masters of a departed age ate given commemoration in the designs over the entrances to the new school, the industries of the Tri-Cities are shown in devices over the entrance to the auditorium. Over the right-hand entrance are ri Page .l'i.vt.y-eiglfr f' x ' -- H., lgfxii. iff? X, . -s F J U '. s lx urs .urn ENN K ...,..,,, N -'-- ' : 3 Y',1-god :. ,..l if'- Tiix ., 4, ' 1, r Si X ' . .

Above the left entrance are coats-of-arms taken from the mediaeval guilds representing mining, metal working and such building arts as masonry and plastering. Inasmuch as the auditorium has been dedicated to dramatic and musical activities, the names of the great dramatists and musicians have been super-imposed on the ornamental plasterwork frieze along the top wall. Along the south wall, from the stage to the east are the names of great dramatists of their day, headed by Shakespeare and including Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Aristophanes, Plautus, Terence, Lopc De Vega, Calderon, johnson, Marlowe, Goethe, Schiller, Moliere, Corneille,Racine, Alfierei, Sheridan, Goldsmith, Ibsen, Synge and Shaw. Similarly along the north wall are the names of musicians headed by Beethoven and including Bach, Handel, Mozart, Schubert, Schumann, Wagner, Gounod, Chopin, Massenet, Saint-Saens, Debussy, Franck, Tehaikowsky, Greig, Verdi, Puccini, Foster, MacDowell, Strauss, Dvorak and Liszt. Perhaps one of the most beautiful of the ornamental designs in the entire school building is the huge stained glass window on the main staircase, a gift of the class of 1917. It is designed in accordance with Mr. MeCormack's idea to illustrate the early history of the astronomical and physical sciences. The window is surmountcd by a simple monogram of the school L.-P. inscribed in an Immediately beneath this inscription is Raphael's Astronomia, which is surrounded by the names of the great Greek astronomers, Hipparchus, Archimedes and Ptolemy. Beneath this are two minor designs, the first of which is a representation of the Antipodes of the early Christian Fathers and the second of which is the famous alchemistic symbol of Ouroboros, or the sacred serpent consuming itself by the gradual swallowing of its own tail and body, and bearing the Greek inscription that All matter is one. The next design is a sketch oi' Galileo's famous telescopes in the museum at Florence, Italy, around which are the names of Copernicus, Galileo and Kcpplcr. Below Keppler's name is a symbolic sketch ofthe laws of planetary motion. Lastly, on the window is a panel representing Albrecht Durer's famous Melancholia , or the Spirit of Science. About this design are written the names of Hygens, Newton and Descartes. At the bottom of the window appears the famous Greek passage.: I God is the great geometerf' 'VN fNfNfXfXfNl7f7 Page .fixgy-:zinc 2 r- l 'J fl Nu...-tw.t I. rf . zz ' cz-. .

The report has an excellent introduc- tion written by uperintendent McCormack dealing with the lpurpose, history, and theory of the work, together with a very unitlue discussion upon such topics as ducational Guidance, Old and New Con- ceptions of School Discip ineg The Objectives of Education, The School an Ethical Laboratory, Pre- Scientific Mental Hygiene, Obstacles and Outlooks. The greater portion of the report deals with actual work of the Bureau and is written up in a very interesting styleg the information is a distinct contribution to the findings of Social Science. Reviews of the reports have been written up in the leading magazines and books on Social work in America and Europe. THE CIRCULAR OF INFORMATION The circular is issued every year and distributed through the book stores of the Tri-Cities. This little announcement gives a concise outline of the Courses of Study, the new equipment of the school plant, the school calendar for the academic year, the faculty, and considerable general information of interest to the part-time, post graduate, and out of town pupils. THE ELL ESS PE The Eli Ess Pe is the annual publication of the Senior Class of the LaSalle-Peru Hi h and is a record of the school activities for the current year. It is to a certain extent a picture-record boo? not only of the high school, but also of the college. The annual contains many sections and among the most important are the Administration and Faculty, Classes, Organizations, Athletics, Literary, and junior College. THE L-P-O JUNIOR COLLEGE CATALOGUE The L.-P.-O. junior College Bulletin is to the College, what the circular is to the high school, it is the annual catalogue containing the calendar for the academic year, the administration and faculty, the physical plant, requirements for graduation and requirements for the various curricula. The book is pro- usely illustrated with cuts showing the buildings, representative organizations of the college, the athletic teams, class pictures and a directory of the student body for the last academic year. THE HIGH SCHOOL SOCIAL CENTER PAMPHLET This publication, while not published at regular intervals, has attained a wide circulation and attracted considerable attention from educators, social workers, and students of civic problems, This work is really a history of the institution, but it also aims further to describe and to characterize the work of the insti- tution. The pamphlet itself has been compiled for the information of educators and workers in the munic- ipal and social service fields.

It is the aim of the national High School Honor Society, which is the Phi Beta Kappa of high schools, to make scholarship as fashionable as distinction in athletics, dramatics, and the social arts. The members of the T. H. S. chapter are entitled to wear national pins as members of a nation-wide organization. This National Society must not be confused with the High Scholarship Legion of the School CONDITIONS OF APPOINTMENT The following are the conditions of appointment to the society: The student appointed must have spent at least one year in the high school prior to the senior year, must have had an honor record up to the time of election, and stand in the first third of his class. Not more than ten per cent may be elected the first semester of the senior year and not more than five per cent in the second semester of the senior year. The candidates are proposed by any members of the high school faculty, and selections are made by the principal and a committee. The committee which Principal McCormack appointed is as follows: Miss Keith, Miss Crocker, Miss Miller and Miss Hatch. Slight changes were made in the rules for selection in the La Salle-Peru Chapter in 1918. MEMBERS was jean Christopher Velma Halm Andrew Neureuther Laura Culbcrston Mary Harding Sophie Pirnat Albina Donovan Geraldine Kreis Helen Schumacher Dorothy Ehrmann Abner Levine Adele Steinbach Kenneth Gehm Anton Mahnich Hilda Traeger THE BLOW MEDAL The La Salle-Peru Township School is very fortunate in possessing the Blow Medal, an award for excellence in general athletics, together with leadership, character, service and helpfulness to the com- munity and school. The awarding of this medal was made possible by Mr. George P. Blow of La Salle who left with the school an amount of money invested in bonds, the interest of which pays for the medal. The conditions for obtaining this medal are rather involved. The student should have an average of at least 85175 in scholarship for his junior and senior years. Only boys who have been in the La Salle- Peru Township High School at least three years are eligible for the medal. The record of the candidate is considered for his entire school term, but emphasis is placed on the record of his last two years. The athletic coach suggests the names of at least two and not more than four boys who in his judgment have been of most value to the athletic success of the school. In the case of a coach who has not been more than one year in the school, the principal and his assistant make the suggestions. The principal's office presents not more than four names taken from the Varsity lists and based on scholarship records. Two members of the teachers' staff named by the principal, who have served at least four years on the faculty, present three names for leadership and character. From this data, a committee consisting of the principal, assistant principal, Coach and two members of the faculty appointed by the principal, select the recipient of the medal. In case of the inability of the committee to decide, or in the case of a tie vote, the final decision rests with the principal. The medal is presented at the commencement with the other honors. The Blow Medal awards are as follows: 19:.3, George Hansen, 1914, no award, IQLS, Delmer Debo 1916, no award, 1917, Paul Duncan. Page .Yr vang'-four ,QQ .t A' Y :Cl ' V, 'Tl , iii Ty.. Y ' 'fil , ,L f N 'TICIW ' THE HIGH SCHOLARSHIP LEGION ' NE of the most honorary and most important organizations in the La Salle- Peru Township High School is the High Scholarship Legion. The condition of appointment is an average of 90 or above in all subjects forone semester and satisfactory character and cleportment. Those students who have been members of the Legion for three semesters are awarded a pin in recognition of merit. A distinction must be made between the High Scholarship Legion and the Honor Roll which is also a helpful organization in promoting.higher attainment in scholar- ship. The Honor Roll is a semi-annual list of all students who have received an average of 85 or above in all their studies.

Our program for class night consisted of two short plays: Sauce for the Goslings, and A Night at an Inn, orchestra selections, solos and the Class Prophecy. The Play, Sauce for the Goslingsu was a farce written by Elgine Warren. The plot of the play lies in the hands of the father and mother and grandmother, who want to show the had uses of slang. The Play, A Night at an Inn, was written by Lord Dunsnny. This was a mystery play portraying the fear of four sailors who had stolen a ruby from the eye of an idol in India.

The title suggests how appropriate this comedy must have been, for the Indian Summer atmosphere throughout the play coincided with the realistic atmosphere. The plot was quite complicated. The opening scene introduced Briqueville and his housekeeper, Madame Lebreton, who are discussing his nephew's marriage to what he terms an iuinsignihcant little upholsterer's daughter. Madame Lebreton at this announces that she is expecting her neice, Adrienne, on a short visit. This charming young person so enchants Briqueville that he feels her presence is neces- sary for his happiness and contentment. Although not childish, Briqueville finds himself in the Indian Summer of his life and again becoming sentimental, begs for her hand in marriage. At the critical moment the nephew arrives and Madame Lebreton's supposed niece proves to be Noel's wife. Briqueville although angry and depressed at first, Finally gives the youthful couple a belated blessing. THE CAST ' Briqueville ....,.. . . .HAROLD A1'r1cnN Madarzze Lebretorz. . . .........

HELENE Hlznzoo Page liigluly-rhrrr 'l l THE JUNIOR PLAY THE YOUNGEST HE YOUNGESTH, a three act comedy by Philip Barry, was the selection of the Class of 1919 with which to open the new auditorium of their high school. The setting of the play is laid in a small New York city. It portrays the domestic troubles of a modern family who are elevated socially: Both the author and the play itself are well known in the dramatic world. The Iirst act places the situation immediately before the audience. The youngest son of the Winslow family is the center of all abuse. It is evident that his endurance is nearing its limit. With the appearance. of Nancy Blake, a guest at the home, his revolt reaches its height and he gains a point in his favor by tak- ing het to a dance at the club. The scene of this act is the living room of the Winslow's house, in late June. The climatic scene of the play takes place on the porch. Richard surprises his family and the audience by unexpectedly taking things into his own hands on the Winslow's red letter day, the Fourth of july. Ignorant of the part that Nancy is playing in his life, he performs deeds unusual for an average person. The act leaves you in great suspense as to the reactions of his family. , The third act opens with the family storming around, very indignant over the escapades of Richardg a thing to be expected. His position in the Winslow home has changed-considerably. He is now master of every situation. Nancy confesses her part in the happenings and is forgiven with happy results. Richard is beginning to think he might be able to manage a wife and a home of his own and broaches the subject to Nancy. The play has the usual happy ending. Mrs. Cbtlrlullt' H 'iu.rlou'. . .

This question, before the play's presen- tation, caused much excitement and discussion on the part of the student- body. Not until the afternoon of November 18th, 1917, when the play was enacted before the Freshmen, Sophomores and Juniors, was the answer correctly given. . King Arthur's court is thrown into confusion by a horrible giant who has cast one of the King's knights into a dungeon. Before releasing the knight the giant tells Arthur he must return with the answer to the reed, What is it that all women most desire? That all women most desire their own sweet will that they may do in all things as they list, was cleverly told by the cast. The part of the stately, dignified King was carried out by Charles Weiland, who acted as though he had been King of Carlisle all his life, while the part of Cmeen Guinevere was played equally as well by Olga Neps. Harold Van Blaricon as the gallant Sir Gawayne was as chivalrous as any knight ever was. Bits of humor were added by the sarcastic, woman-hater Seneschal, Abraham Ramenofsky. Oliver Luetscher as Sir Griflet, the young child-page, who would be cut into a hundred pieces for his mem, deserves creditable comment. The old loathly woman, who was Louise Kreis, acted as though she were far past the age of a Sopho- more. These characters ably assisted by the rest of the cast, and coached under the skillful clramatist, Miss Gould, made the play all that the Sophomores wanted it to be. - Page Eighty'-fir: K' , ' 1 5' s v..- ANR--' T-4 E :- - Lf W .f---A--' -3 ,X 1 1 .

THE ORCHESTRA The Orchestra, directed by W. S. Schwuchow has taken an important part in the activities of the school throughout the year. The lirst appearance ofthe orchestra under the new leader was at the Illinois Valley Teachers' Convention, held in La Salle. The musical numbers offered by the students were considered unusually line. The music of the Organization has added to the success of class plays, banquets, and Pep meetings. A short practice of forty-live minutes, On Tuesdays, and Thursdays is held, during which the musicians endeavor to learn many worthwhile compositions. Operatic Selections from Carmen , the Lustspiel Overture, William Tell Overtureg the Grieg Suite: and numerous other works of the Old masters have been accomplished by the Orchestra. The orchestra also plays accompaniment to the Girls' Glee Club. Although the students strive for perfection, the success of the Orchestra is due to the capability of the leader. After two years of faithful service as a member, the Board of Education rewards each player with a silver pin, At the end of four years a gold pin is received, Page Eighty-zziizc IN STRUMENTATION ,'f,st.r.p .

It pros ed to be a very interesting trip to some. The important event of the day to most of them was the dinner furnished by Tonica, exclusively for the band. At the dinner, Mr. Mounce, the superintendent of the Tonica High School, gave a short address to the boys, to which several band members made appropriate responses. The evening performance was better than that of the afternoon, because the boys wanted to show their appreciation of the dinner. The next engagement was the teachers' convention at the auditorium. The band played on the third evening to bring to a conclusion the three-day gathering of teachers. There were two performances that evening. The band went to Mendota to the football game to lend their moral support to the game. Unfortunately, L.-P. lostg hut this was not due to lack of support from the side-lines. The Streator game also proved to be a great attraction. We journeyed to this great city to back our team against this traditional foe of L.-P. and traveled via a Traction bus chartered especially for the band. Various pep meetings and pep parades were also brightened by the appearance of the music masters to lend atmosphere to the dilferent occasions. ' The greatest event of tlIe year was the presentation of letters to the faithful members of the band who had served two years in the organization. Those receiving letters were: Andrew Neureuthcr, Cecil Scar- ratt, Lester Simmons, Lloyd Hoelle, Langston Thompson, Paul Gorenskowski, Max Gorenskowski, George Herbolsheimer, Arthur Warmington, joe Leavens, Lawrence McCann, Gerald Vroman. Basketball games were also the scenes of numerous appearances of the band to which the boys gave their usual enthusiastic and helpful support. 197.7-2.8 was a great year for the band!

It also serves to promote a feeling of responsibility and comradeship among the SILI- dents. The Student Council is composed of two members from each of the four classes and members from each of the various student organizations. Under the supervision of a faculty adviser, meetings are held once eachmonth, with special meetings being called as often as necessary. This year has been a period of great activity for the Student Council. - OFFICERS President. .,... ........... ..... J E AN CHRISTPOHER V ice-President. . . . .,.....

The aims of this organization are: to promote interest in outdoor life, to improve the health, and to develop good sportsmanship. The girls may earn their points by co-opera- tion wi th the physical education department. Fifty points must be earned before a student is eligible for entrance. New members of the Girls' League are formally initiated. For those earning 300 points, honors in the form of letters are given. Gold pins are awarded to those who earn 600 points. The Senior girl with the high- est number of points is presented with a gold ring bearing an athletic Cll1l7lCI1'lQ last year Anna Knauf, in honor of her athletic prowess, received the ring. At the beginning of the year a party was given to which all Freshmen were invited. The social was given in hopes that more students would become interested in the Girls' League. Plans are now under way for a large initiation to be given in the gymnasium.

EM1Lx' XRIOLFF A1l1'i.rrr.r. . . . . .Miss GOULD, Mlss MAIl'I'lN The Seniorqlunior Dramatic Club is one of the newest and most ambitious of the organizations in the school. The first call for members brought immediate response,-showing that these classes have more talent than you would naturally give them credit for. At the lirst meeting there was some discussion as to who would have the leads for Romeo and Juliet ,-but we found ourselves without a balcony and were thus forced to present production of not quite such a lofty nature. In fact, the hrst student-directed play for the members was The Wedding Present , which was given at a regular meeting of the Club. Ambition and enthusiasm are, however not the only requirements for member- ship, for there are such little things as scholarship and the like that have to be taken into consideration. After admission, students have been encouraged to write and direct original sketches of their own. Our aim, however, is not to make dramatists, actors or actresses of our fellow classmates, but merely to do such things as an outlet for natural ability. Our mottois: A clown on the stage is much better than two in the class-room. .. ---....,..A.... ................. -Sl ......,..................-.. , Page Nimgjiw THE ART CLUB HE purpose of the Art Club is to further an interest in art and to provide artistic contact for those people who are interested. Membership is open to those students who have taken more than one year of art and have an average of eighty or above. Meetings are held in the art room once a month. Entertainments are held by the Art Club several times during the year. This year one of its main features was the circus. The gymnasium represented the tent in which there were the elephants, clowns, and side-shows. Many new and original ideas were carried out to help to make the circus a success. The Art Club usually puts on a Spring Social and the money obtained from these socials is used to send the Art Club members to Chicago for a day's visit to the Art Institute and other places of interest.

One realizes how successful this de artment is from the great number of students enrolled in the various art classes. The students are devoted: to their work, which accounts for the great amount accomplished in the short period of a study hour. We have carried on our usual work of making posters for games, for lays, for parties, and for numerous other activities. This year we have been hard at work on a series o posters to prevent the destruction of wild flowers. These sters have been exhibited in various shops in town, and on several occasions, prizes have been awardeiilofor the best. At school, we have displayed our worthy achievements in the Assembly Hall exhibit case so that other students may keep in touch with our work. Posters are by no means the only work of the department. This year we have spent considerable time and labor in handi- craftg only the advanced students, however, take up the more difficult phases of this work. An interesting trip was made to the Lowell Pottery factory, and many forms of pottery were secured to be painted later with designs worked out by the students. Some other forms of andicraft are batik, tie and dye, enamel work, toy making, pamtex, plaiting lamp shades, and fashioning and designing felt flowers and felt purses. An important part of the advanced students' work is their training to paint scenery for the various plays given by the high school. The junior Play owes much to the art students who painted a great deal of their scenery. Plans have been made to attempt window decorating at the Hummer Furniture Store. The students will make a miniature of the window arrangement and then enlarge this for display. The most successful will receive a prize. Often students are encouraged to do special lines of work for contests. This year Lynn Malone, a senior, designed a sport costume for the National Amateur Dress Designing Contest. She came in with the third group of winners and was presented with a dress as her award. She has studied designing here at school for two years and has designed many of the costumes for the high school plays. Of course, the art department also docs figure work, watercolor, pencil technique,design, and oil work, the study of color is taken up in some detail. Every year the department takes care of the Annual art work such as planning the motif, hand color- ing the insert pages, mounting photos and snaps, and planning the color scheme for the book. Page Ninrlj-m-rn 5 l 1 x THE SCIENCE CLUB NE of the youngest organizations around school goes under the name of the Science Club, which draws its membership from the lower years of the science classes. Miss Shaw conceived the idea of the new organization and called the first meeting of the club. The meetings are held every fortnight after school and the members give reports upon the latest developments in science. The club takes excursions and trips to the industrial plants of this communityg one of the most interesting was to the plate glass works in Ottawa. The Club has ll membership of twenty-live.

Two years after the opening of the high school, the first coach, Howard H. Horton directed the principal sport, football. In 1903 George Wood was appointed to take over the coaching work with the help of various faculty members, and in 1905 H. E. Flanagan becalne the new L.-P. coach. I11 1910 the director of athletics, principally football and basketball was Ira Pease. In the 1911 season the L.-P. football team won 6 games, lost 4 and tied 1. The High School Athletic Association made its appearance that year and fostered the first Annual Field Day for the high schools of La Salle County, Ottawa Township High won the First classic, while L.-P. finished a strong second. In 1917. G. W. Seller took over the football work and won the La Salle County Championship winning 7 games and losing only IQ score 2.99 to the opponents 54. The L.-P. basketball team was particularly success- ful that year by taking 5 victories and 2. defeats. Coach Howard Fellows came to L.-P. in 1913 and put on the first full program of athletics for L.-P., football, basketball, track, swimming, and tennis. In 1914 the Social Center building was opened and it became the home of L.-P. athletics. Upon the opening of this new building gymnasium work, indoor baseball, medal tests, indoor track meets, wrestling, swimming and basketball were put under the league form of contest. For the year of 1914 the total attendance was approxi- mately 14,866 but for the last few years the average attendance has approximated a quarter of a million. Aside from the fall and winter contests the public has made use of the outdoor pool during the hot summer months. In the 1914-15 season L.-P. stepped to the front in athletics by capturing the Illinois Valley Conference Football Championship and its first date title since the establishment of football in 19o9. It is interesting to note that the Old Boys Athletic Association composed of graduates and business men supporters of the school gave the boys the first football banquet at the close of the season. Mr. G. A. Wilson, Sr., President of the Board of Education, was the organizer and pro- moter of this excellent organization. In 1915-16 the school dedicated the new Mathiessen Athletic Field in the game with Hall High of Spring Valley. Since that time LaSalle-Peru has carried away one or more championships in the Illinois Valley every season. In 1916-17 the track athletes captured the Illinois Valley track meet. That year the basketball team battled for state honors in Joliet. In 1918 the school was able to take both basketball and track titles in the Illinois Valley. In 1919 the L.-P. basketeers P11-gr lvfllfljblllll rg,-A-AL, I X .. at 1 -.na-I 1 ff' Q pl- t K iw -- 1 '1:llM' battled Blue Island for third place in the sectional tournament. In the Illinois Valley conference, L.-P. has brought here three consecutive championships. In the basket- ball season of 1910-11 L.-P. went to the finals in the district and Illinois Valley tourna- ment. In 192.1-2.2. she carried 8 victories and 1 defeat in football, losing only to Peoria. In basketball she was defeated by Peoria Manual in the Illinois Valley tournaments 16 to 15. L.-P. walloped Streator and copped the district meet. In the sectional the Olive and Red defeated Freeport in the Aurora sectional but it was downed by New Trier. Myron Kirsh of the L.-P. squad was named all-state. In 1917.-7.3 L.-P. took another Illinois Valley Championship for the second year in succession, The accom- plishments of the local athletics of that year included the district tourney champion- ship in swimming and tennis. Q I It is interesting to note that L.-P. has developed more athletes than any other high school in the Illinois Valley and threatens the records of any high school in Illinois for athletics. The Pony Express which won the Illinois Valley football title, and is still an independent organization of the Tri-Cities, is claimed by critics to be the best team ever turned out by Coach Fellows in his Fifteen years of coaching service to L.-P. athletics. In 192.6-2.7 La Salle-Peru won the Illinois Valley Cham- pionship and the district track title, La Salle-Peru was one of the first schools in the United States to encourage interseetional contests by playing Dayton, Ohio, at Daytong in 192.7 Steele High played a game with L.-P. and was held to the zero mark. .-. Emotions deep respond, shouts cleave the sky, Then pandemonium, surf upon the shore Swclls like a crowded stad1um's frenzied cry, When hard-won goal makes even score. The tumult falls! a solemn hush succeeds, As when, above the people with their needs In churches dim the Host is lifted high, Behold! the Trinity of Truth is passing by.

This year the selection of the Cheer Leaders was ut to a vote before the Student Bodyg they selected the ones they thought the most capable of leading the enthusiastic crowd in cheering the team to victory. Our Cheer Leaders, as you all know, are Ed. Urbanowski, john Gilligan, Zenon Hybke and Harold Van Blaricon. These boys led the crowds in uproarious cheering throughout the season, and had the confidence of the student body, thus leading to a successful year in athletics. The Student Council under the direction of Mr. Graham and Jean Christopher, who is President of the Student Council, picked out students who had talent to produce the skits and farce comedies which would lend the best atmosphere to the pei meetings. The work of the fellow students was not in vain, for all of the meetings went over with a ig bang, bringing more crowds into the Stadium which increased the weight of the Change Sock which pleased Mr. Graham. Don't think the rah, rah boys on the side lines didn't cheer Qwho wouldn't with-leaders like we hadj. With this cheering the team overcame many obstacles which would have been impossible to accomplish were it not for the loyal spirit ofthe ones on the side lines. Our Pe Meetings were good and there is no getting around it. The programs brought about real feeling ant enthusiasm among the students and aroused the spirits of the members of the teams. Some of the skits that went over exceptionally well, were the Funeral Procession with Zenon Hybke, the priest, who conducted the burial of Ottawa in solemn and due ceremonial rites. Another which took the atten- tion of the audience and gave them many laughs, was the German Band conducted by Bob Schwend- imann. He knows his business when it comes to handling the beet stein. The new loyalty song written by Mr. Schwuchow was a decided success among the students. The airfof the song is taken from the selection Director , while the verses written by Mr. Schwuchow are as ollows: THE LOYALTY SONG La Salle-Peru, it's up to you boys, To win for L.-P. High Now altogether, we cheer you to the sky, La Salle-Peru Be loyal to your High School, CName of opponentD shall not win, Fight, Fight and you're sure to win. So fight and win the game, boys, Yours be the victory, can't you hear this cry, Fight-Fight. Be loyal to your High School, CO ponentb shall not win Sight-Fight and you're sure to win. Yell: Fight Team-Fight Team-Fight-Fight! Page Ou: Humlm! 011: TROPHIES WON I 9 15- I9 17 URING the years IQLS, 1916, and 1917 the L-P athletes wo11 and amassed a great nu111ber of trophies. The above picture illustrates a part ofthe trophies won in the various meets a11d tournaments. From left to right we have, lirst: a shield wo11 by tl1e 192.5 track tea111 i11 the quarter mile relay. This trophy was given by the La Salle Tribune, a11d is now in the permanent possession of tl1e school. The next shield was VVOII by the 1916 basketball team i11 the District Tour- nament. The third trophy is another shield awarded to the 1915 half-mile relay team. The large shield i11 the center is a basketball trophy given to the 1915 basket- ball team for winning the Illi11ois Valley Tournament. In the second row is a track shield won i11 the Illinois Valley Meet by the 1917 track team. To the lower right is a shield presented to the 1915 basketball team for winning the district IfOllI'll2l- ment at L-P. I11 the center is a football presented to the school by tl1e class of 1916 as a result of their no-defeat reward during the season of 1913. Only o11e team scored Llp0l1 them, a11d that was by a freak play. Because of their record, they were considered as State Champions. To the right of this is another Illinois Valley track trophy won by the 1916 team. Lastly is a shield won i11 the 9197.7 district meet. The small bronze statue of a runner in the lower right hand side of the pic- ture was wo11 by Richard Fitzkee of the 192.5 track team for being high point man at the Bradley Interscholastic Meet, held at Peoria in 1915. This display is believed to be one, if 11ot the most splendid a11d complete of its kind in the history of the school. It is also a good example of why our school is one of the leading institutions of the state.

The banquet was held in the Grill Room of the Hotel Kaskaskia, where the boys of yesterday and the boys of today mixed, swapped yarns, and generally en- joyed themselves. The mood in which the banquet was begun was a tribute to the goodfellowship that prevailed throughout the evening. Everyone formed in lines and walked lock step to his seat at the table. The dinner was very satisfactoryg in fact, it en- couraged Junior members of this year's football squad to resolve to be there next year. I During the course of the meal, several small entertaining acts took place. Our own German band played, Butch, Showski, Razzy, and Abie sang, and the high school orchestra, led by our master of Jazz, Paul Gorenskowski, played several popular selections. The meal was soon over and in its place came the puns, after-dinner speeches, and wise cracks that always follow a good banquet. Spear1nint McCormack, taking the usual position of G. A. Wilson, was master of ceremonies. Several speeches were given by the coaches and other men interested in the welfare of sports. Mr. Charles H. Kingman, principal of the Ottawa High School, told the boys that no better Christmas gift or tribute could be given One of the Old Boys than a personal word of thanks on Christmas Eve. Coach H. E. Meyer of Mendota, told of Mend0ta's great feeling after they had beaten us in a hectic battle between Men- dota and La Salle-Peru. These speeches were preparatory to the speech of speeches, that of the Captain of the team. George Moline stood amid the thunders of applause and humbly thanked the members of the team for their loyalty. The election of next year's football captain followed this event. Butch Walloch was elected and it became his privilege to address the team on the coming year's football. He stated that he wished that he might lead the squad through a more glorious year of football than the past year. George Moline again arose, not as a rebuttal for this remark as might be expected, but to present Coach Fellows and Doc Schreiber with a seasonable gift, gloves, to aid in next year's rubbing. The next and most important event of the evening followed--the receiving of the football letters. This event is always looked upon with about as much uneasi- ness as receiving a sheepskin . However, everyone came through the ordeal successfully and the banquet came to a close with the singing of that old and beauti- ful song-' 'The End ofa Perfect Fray.

The Social Center is unique in that it is proof of the ability of three cities to unite on a recreational program supported by the funds furnished by all. The institution is used as a high school gymnasium during the day and a social center after school hours and during the evenings. There are organized grade and parochial school activities for the girls and boys on Saturdays. -v--fe Q- - - --v-. .va 1-' -.-.-...-.-,..,,.-.-,,.-..,...v...-...--....-............. -D-, - -I---rs,-..- .2-Q ,....L.-.V Page Om' Hundml Four lgfag.

SOCIAL CENTER qcoNT'1NuEn3 HE grounds on which the new building, athletic Held, and playground stand were also donated by Mr. Matthiessen, who himself did much of the planning. The athletic grounds were graded at Mr. Matthiessen's expense and represent possibly an additional outlay of some Sz5,0o0. Mr. Matthiessen gave originally 573,000 for the erection of the Recreation Building, and later donated further funds for an outdoor swimming pool. This was followed by a sum of about 532,000 for the erection of an addition to the Recreation Building, and just before his death by 340,000 for a second remodeling of the High School Building. The Township Board of Education also made considerable contributions to the new enterprise, and the citizens donated money for the erection of a concrete grandstand on the athletic field costing S2.,5o0. . The cost of maintaining the Social Center is borne entirely by the Township Board of Education, which is an educational taxing body representing the cities of La Salle, Peru, and Oglesby and the country districts, or Congressional Township Number 33, Range 1, N. E., with a total population of 3o,000. The cost of main- taining the Center is approximately 39,000 a year, which sum is paid out of the high school educational funds. The Social Center is essentially a part ofthe High School and no attempt is made to make it self-supporting. However, the activities, in large part, pay for themselves, and the rental fees collected for the use of the party room and gymnasium cover practically all of the incidental expenses.

QL- i Tns Suniuiu Uzfnr THE ATHLETIC FIELD LARGE athletic lield, in the center of which is the football gridiron, encompassed by a 1-5 mile center track, is used chiefly by the high school athletes. A large concrete stadium is found on the south side of the lield and affords the many spectators an excellent view of the various athletic contests. The cinder track is the only one in the Illinois Valley and has been used annually by the Illinois Valley High School Association for the holding of its interscholastics. In the northeast corner of the field, a new baseball diamond has been laid out for all future grade and parochial school baseball games and has already been used for games played in the Western Clock Company Industrial League. By special permission, teams of the tri-cities arc granted the use of the diamond for baseball practice. To the east ot the baseball dia- mond and north of the gridiron a second football lield has been laid out where the high school boys conduct their practices in order to keep the regular gridiron in the best of condition. The co-operation of the Western Clock Company has made it possible to surround the entire field by a modern cyclone fence. THE SWIMMING PooLs During the summer time the indoor swimming pool is reserved exclusively for the girls and ladies, while the outdoor pool is used by the boys and men. In other seasons the use of the indoor pool is divided between the two sexes, so that it is possible for the people of the tri-cities to continue their swimming the year around, During this period, students are required to use the natatorium during the day-time. Trained life guards are in constant attendance, and their presence reduces the dangers of swimming to a minimum. At stated times efficient instruction is given both to children and adults, and hundreds of people are annually taught how to swim and dive. Tests in swimming are held periodically and those who qualify are given social center monograms. The pool is also available for holding Red Cross Life-Saving tests. The indoor pool is equipped with a modern filter and chlorinator, throughwhich all the water in the pool is passed every twenty-four hours. In this way the water is kept clean, fresh and sparkling.

THE READING AND SILENT GAME RooM I-IIS room is divided in the middle by a wall which extends two-thirds of the way across the room so that one part is used for the playing of silent games while the other part serves as a place for reading. This large room, is equipped with seven large reading tables, a newspaper rack, a magazine rack, an atlas stand, an attendance desk, bookshelves and about thirty chairs. Over IS popular magazines, and periodicals, the local newspapers and a growing collection of books for all ages and sexes furnish adequate reading material for those who use the room. None but quiet games such as chess, checkers and dominoes are allowed in the game section. Although the use of this room is opened to all, its use has proved popular only to the boys and young men who nightly End it a very convenient and attractive place in which to spend their leisure time Children of grade-school age are required to leave at 8 o'clock every evening except on Friday nights, so that there is no interference with their school work. This same rule applies to all activities carried on by the Social Center. MISCELLANEOUS AcT1V1T1ES Several activities are carried on during the year which have no dclinite place in the athletic program. One of these is the use of the gymnasium and swimming pool in odd hours by various boy scout organiza- tions. Another one is the use of the gymnasium from 8 to 9 o'clock by a group of foremen of the Western Clock Company who have found much enjoyment in playing volleyball, followed by a plunge in the swin ming pool from 9 to io. One of the most important features of the Social Center work has been thc development of boys' clubs. All boys ofthe tri-cities are eligible for membership and about sixty of them who are not identified with other organizations have been grouped together into what is known as the Social Center Neighborhood Boys' Club. This big organization has been sub-divided into three groups known respectively as the Lions, the Tigers and the Tender-Feet. The boys meet every Wednesday evening and after a half-hour drill in parlia- mentary tactics and club work, are granted a half-hour's workout in the gymnasium, From time to time a movie lilm is run off for their benefit in the High School Auditorium. This organization has been a most important factor in the development of character and manhood and through its influence many boys who are idling away their time on the street corners and running up and down alleys have been brought into the Social Center where their energy has been directed into better channels. The Wednesday night swim- ming class for married couples has also proved quite popular especially in the fall and spring time of the year. This class swims from 8 to 9 p. m. and furnishes an opportunity for the married folk of the com- munity to enjoy their swimming at the same time.

In fact only eight men who had been out for football the previous season reported for practice. Of these only Captain Moline and Keutzer had played much for the Olive and Red. ut with almost superhuman effort, Coach Fellows, with the assistance of Mr. O'Laughlin, built up a team that while not the best the school has turned out was far from the worst. K L.-P. o. ALUMNI o. Under a boiling sun the green L.-P. Varsity met the ex rienced Alumni. The game showed wonder- ful possibilities for the L.-P. team, as they fought and held thi Alumni to a tie score. During the better 'part of the game, neither team could advance the ball, but at the end, the L.-P. line weakened and the whistle saved the day. Captain Moline and Keutzer starred in this game for L.-P. while Paton and Kratz were outstanding for the Alumni. L.-P. o. TILDEN TECH. 11. During the next week, while hard at practice, the injuries that happened to the team the whole season began to a pear. Consequently, when the team lined up against Tilden, Easton was on the bench. Tilden, having had, two weeks more training than the L.-P. team, soon showed their superiority by scoring in the lirst ten minutes. They scored twice more on costly fumbles by the inexperienced Red and Green back- lield. L.-P. finally started the drive in the last quarter and succeeded in putting the ball on Tilden's one yard line but the whistle ended the game. L.-P. o. ROCK ISLAND 6. Fi hting like a team beset, the L.-P. eleven held off impendin defeat for three and a half quarters and would have earned a scoreless tie from Rock Island were it not fir another fumble. As it was, thc L.-P. team showed up well in this game. Three of the men playing with Rock Island were all-state selections. The game see-sawed in mid-field for three quarters, but in the last few minutes the L.-P. line weakened and finally allowed Gordon, an all-state man, to slip around end for fifteen yards and a touchdown. The entire L.-P. line was outstanding in this game. ' L.-P. 59. ST. JOSEPH'S CRock Islandj o. The L.-P. team Gnally hit its stride and succeeded in riding rough-shod over the weak St. Joseph's team. On the opening play, L.-P. kicked off and recovered, giving St. joseph's the ball deep in their territory. From this point, it was only a track meet for the L.-P. team. Every man on the team showed gp well and Walloch, who was chosen as captain of the 197.8 team, was outstanding, scoring four touch- owns. - L.-P. O. ST. BEDE'S O. ' Playing with the same teamwork that characterized its play the preceding week, the L.-P. team out- glayed an outfought St. Bede's on the latter's field. In this game L.-P. was classed as a sure loser but by ispltasying a hght that seemed lacking in the earlier part of the season the team not only held but out- glay St. Bede's in every part of the. game. The game started by L.-P's. driving the ball deep into St. e e's territory but L.-P. was unable to score. St. Bede's failed to gain and L.-P. started another drive but again did not score. So the ame progressed, but St. Bede's lost ground until the last few minutes when a St. Bede's man got away fir a seventy yard run, after Moline had been taken out with a sprained ankle. .The L.-P. line held for downs on the one yard line and the game ended with the ball in L.-P's. possession. - L.-P. 6. MENDOTA 7. Going into the Mendota game with an air of over-confidence, L.-P. was given a tremendous surprise. The Mendota team outplayed and outfought the home team during the entire first half. During this game, L.-P. was without the services of Moline who alwavs helped brace the team. After a severe lecture by Coach Fellows, the Red and Green warriors went out and within live minutes had scored a touchdown. W alloch missed the try for point. Then the L.-P. team loafed and Mendota threw passes everywhere, finally com- pleting one for a touchdown. A freak forward pass won the game for Mendota on the try for point. Al- EliotLgl:lL.-E. tried to score, Mendota held and for the first time in years Mendota defeated L.-P. on the oot a lie .

L.-P. started out by surprising the Streator team. Holding the strong Streator offense, the L.-P. team finally recovered a fumble on the Streator thirty-yard li11e. Gehm, on the next lay, was l1it on his injured collar-bone and dropped the ball which was scooped up by a Streator man, wlio proceeded to run seventy-yards for a touclidown. Getting a break like that gave the Streator team confidence and 1nade the L.-P. players discouraged. Consequently, L.-P. was defeated in an easy manner. However, in the closing minutes, L.-P. threatened to score on passes when Coggshall dropped a pass which rolled over the line. The Streator team then held the ball until the gan1e ended. L.-P. 7. OTTAWA 0. Captain Moline, back in the I..-P. line for the first tin1e since the St. Bede's game, soon showed his mettle by scoring a touchdown for his team in the opening minutes of the game. Ottawa, however, came back strong and started a drive against the home team. Moline was injured again and forced out of the game. With him went the L.-P. scoring power, for while the I..-P. line held the red and white at bay, they could open no holes for the backlield. Consequently, L.-P. scored it's hrst Illinois Valley Conference victory by a seven to nothing score. L.-P. o. HALL 1.8. Playing in a sea of mud, against tremendous odds, the fighting L.-P. team lost its claim to the Illinois Valley title by being vanquished by Hall. During the entire first half, the losers held off the rushes of the powerful Hall team but defeat always seemed pending. Due to the good work of Moline and Easton, the Hall team was held to a o score during the first half. At the start of the second half, Moline was injured and carried off the field. With him went the light of the L.-P. eleven, for the Hall team scored at will. Car y Martinkus, an All-State man, ran wild and was res nsible for two touchdowns. The other two toucihdowns came on blocked punts. The entire team had pligfed well during the first half, but could not stand the strain for a full game. L.-P. 6. CRANE QChicagoD o. As in past years L.-P., entered the Crane game determined to uphold the tradition of winning the Thanksgiving game. L.-P. showed its superiority by immediately rushing the ball to Crane's twenty yard line, only to lose it on downs. It was now Ctane's turn to show its offensive strength, but they were unable to ain through the L.-P. line. So the game progressed until late in the last quarter when Walloch intercepted! a Crane pass and raced, behind perfect interference, to the winning score. Thus, the once green l97.7 team finished its season in a blaze of glory. A FOOTBALL SCORES 1910-1917 OTTAXVA, STREATOR AND HALL L.-P. Ottawa L.-P. Streatot L.-P.

SENIOR PERSONALS GEORGE MOLINE'CHPtZllH and Quarterback Pinky , though injured during most of the season, displayed his leadership during the time he was able to play. On the offense, his ability to pick holes and gain ground caused him to be feared by opposing teams. His playing was the main feature of the L.-P. team. Because of this he was given a place on the mythical All-Valley Team. MILES SCHERMERHORN-Tackle and End. Hon was a new recruit who reported in his last year. He believed in the old saying, It's the second team that makes the first team. At all times Hon pushed his mates for a regular berth. His versa- tility made him an important cog in our team. When another player was hurt Hon was prepared to fill his position with equal ability. K,-nu. KEUTZER'THCklC. Farmer , a veteran of last year's team, proved the mainstay of the right side of the line. His hard tackling brought many an enemy to the ground. One of Keutzer's main assets was his ability to follow a play around the opposite end. As a result of his all-around playing, Farmer was a unanimous selec- tion for All-Valley tackle. KENNETH GEHLI-HHlfbl1Ck. While this was Gehm's first year in football, he soon developed into a tri le-threat man of no mean ability. His speed enabled him to outrun the fastest man. He was injured tiljuring the first part of the Streator game and was unable to play after that. Kenny's playing will always be remembered by his teammates and friends. WVILLIAM EASTON-I-lalfback. Molly , while playing part of the season at tackle, found that he was needed in the backfield. At halfback he developed into an excellent open-field runner and a plunger of note. His punting ability enabled him to take his team out of danger many times and earned for him a place on the A l-Valley Team. Pugf Our I lllIItfI't'Ll Eleven MCCANN, SMITH, Konmo, Nowick, M.u-mtcn. SENIOR PERSONALS LANVRENCE MCCANN'T2lCklC. Mac was always respected by teams that had heard of him, and those that had not soon learned to feel his presence. His aggressiveness and ability to break up the interference made him a valuable man to his team. Whether his team was winning or losing Mac' never let up in his playing, and often at a critical moment he urged his team-mates on. ERWIN SMITH-Guard. Bermuda started the season by pushing the regular guards for a position. Although not playin regularly, his punting ability was far better than usual and every time his team was in a hole Smith booted them out. His light and aggressiveness made him look like lirst team material. If he had reported for foot- ball earlier he surely would have become a star. EDWIN KOENIG-Center. Being of diminutive stature, Ed made up for this disadvantage by out-fighting the opposing centerg the heaviest line-man could not keep Ed out of a scrimmage and he often broke through to throw would- be ground-gainers for a loss. This is Ed's last year, but we all wish he would be back another season. ANTON MAHNICH-Guard. Playing his last year for L.-P. Mahnich became a guard of great skill. His ability to break through and block punts made him a valuable asset to the second team and only his lack of weight kept him off the varsity. However, bv showing his fight and thereby setting an example for the Grst string men, he proved to be one of the best reserves Coach Fellows had. Nowicx-Tackle. Ondefensea better man than Nowick was not to be had, for breaking u tackle bucks and end-runs was his specialty. Nowick could always be depended upon to do his best andpalthough he was often out- played because of his lack of weight he was never out-fought. His ability to play various positions made him a valuable utility man. Pugr Um llnmlrnl Tzrrlrz 1 f -X 1' i N 4 ' , Q-'Q .r -. - ...- tx - K .Xp REINHARD, LAFLAMME, OHLIGSCHLAGEK, Lsvms, CHEMELHWSKI. SENIOR PERSONALS LAWRENCE REINHARD-HR1fbHCk. Beset with hard luck the entire season, Percy overcame this and developed into a fast backfield runner. His ability to s uirm through holes gave his team many yards. On defense he proved his worth to the team by his hard tadkling and intercepting of forward passes. When he was forced out with a broken collar bone the team suffered greatly. joseph LAFLAMME-Center and Guard. This was Joe's Hrst season of football, but he soon became a heady center. Having a great advan- tage in weight, he pressed Koenig for the center position. He could always be depended on to hold his own in a game. The coach found that LaFlamme could play guard as well as center and consequently Joe saw much action for the Red and Green. EMMERsoN OHLIGSCHLAGER-TRCICIC. Being a new hand at football hindered Em during the first part of the season but once he became accustomed to the game he materialized into a good tackle. His hard tackling featured everv game he was in and his offensive work was above the average. It is to our great disadvantage that Em won't be back next year. ABNER LEVINE-Guard. Abie was the foundation of the forward wall. Whenever L.-P. had to make their downs they sent the ball through Abie's side ofthe line, He had the power to open up monstrous holes in the opposing line, and it was fatal for the foe to attempt to drive through the left flank of the line. Abie played his best games against the hardest teams, and as a result critics picked him on the All-Valley Team. TliAD CHEMELEWSKI-End. Lacking weight, Thad had a great handicap to overcome. However his stick-to-it-iveness lent spirit to the team and taught them the lesson of fight. While end was his favorite position, Thad was often used at tackle and even in the backheld. In act Coach found that he could play any position and consequently his worth was not measurable.

Of these Captain Moline was the only one who had played regular last year, but the reserve squad made up of Easton, Welter, Gehm, Walloeh, Marenda, LaFla1nme, a11d Rasponi made tl1e prospects for another successful season very bright. Our team started off with a victory over St. Bede's in easy fashion. 'Fhen they defeated the strong St. Ambrose team, 30-19 by coming from behind in the third quarter. Marseilles and Hall both fell before the wearers of the Olive and Red by comfortable scores. Then came the climax of the season when the varsity defeated the Alumni with the score of 2.3-14. Then L.-P. lost its first game to Rock Island 13-10, and seemed to go into a slump, for Moline defeated them the next night by a score of 18-14. L.-P., although far off form, defeated St. Bede's 31-14, but then lost to Waukegan. Next came tl1e Ottawa game, the team was certain of victory but barely won by a score of 17-16. Of course the biggest game of the season was with Streator at La Salle and our boys went down to an honorable defeat from a team that entered the State Finals. The score was L.-P. 14-Streator 1.9. Once more L.-P. hit its stride and defeated Hall and Moline. thereby avenging themselves for a previous defeat. The next game L.-P. played was i11 the Illinois Valley Tournament held at Ottawa. Unluckily L.-P. hit Gardner in the first game and, after leading 9-1 at the quarter, lost their fight and were beaten 7.1-19g incidentally, Gardner won tl1e tournament. Mt. Carmel, last year's State Champions came down for a game and by playing their team to a stand- still the second half, L.-P. was able to hold them to thirty-one points while L.-P. scored twenty-one. Seeking revenge for the close score at Ottawa, L.-P. buried their ancient rivals by a score of 34-15. Tilden although having an advantage in height, was defeated by a score of 15-zo. Bowen played here next and because of the ragged ball played by the l'l0lIlC team tl1c former won 16-11. So L.-P. entered the State District meet at Ottawa and loomed as a serious contender for the title. They vaulted the first hurdles namely, Hall and Seneca, easily, b11t were once more defeated by Streator in the finals.

He also played forward part of the time and his all-around sportsmanship won him a place on the All-District Team. WILLIAM EASTON Molly , playing his last year at center for L.-P., gave the best he had for his team. He always could be depended on and he led the L.-P. scoring, even though illness forced him out of several games. KENNHTH GEHNI Ducky , played forward on the team. He lead the ream's attack and also showed his ability in handling running guards, for he could guard as well as shoot. XVILLIAM WBLTBR Bill followed- his brother's footsteps in developing into a guard of no mean ability. He could sink long shots and often he outscored his opponent. EIIWIN SMITH Heavy after getting away to a late start was always pressing the first five for a position. He had a dead eye on the basket, while his passing and teamwork made him an outstanding man on the floor. Euosmz RASPONI Razzy , while hampered by an injured knee during the first part of the season, became a man to be feared by the opposition, His ability ro follow up shots made im il marked man and he has another year to develop his eye. Enwann WALLOCH Butch , playing either at center or guard, was always at his best. At first pushing Welter and then Easton for a place on the hrst team, made him a valuable man. His spirit and loyalty were outstanding. EDMIJND MAIIBNDA Showsky had all the hard luck of the season. Although a regular on the team, he was forced out because of scarlet fever. He had been one of the leading scorers up to that time and we shall be watching him for the next two years. Josnvn MCGR AW Plugger , while not a regular on the team, was often substituted at forward and could be depended on to give a good account of himself. Long shots or short ones were all the same to him and he was the ITIOSI valuable man Coach had on the bench.

THE CROSS COUNTRY TEABI ARLY in September a squad of about fifteen men came out for training for the Second Annual Cross- Country Run which was held at Streator. Mr. A. Brix, il former Streator High track star, and later a cross-country runner at Syracuse University, planned and managed the first run and now it is an an- nual affair. The interest in the event is shown by the number of entrants every fall, After Brix started the run he was called back to Syracuse where he is now coaching track work. La Salle-Peru entered the first year to give the schools support to the event and since that time the number interested in trying for the team has increased steadily. For the most part the men work out alone, for the coaching staff is gen- erally busy with football, and the school is proud of the boys for the results which they attained. Every year there is a large squad of interested boys out for team, and if the interest continues to grow the new branch of athletics will need a coach, This year, Lang, a senior, Cooper, Scheck, and Traeger, sophomores, were chosen to run in the meet. Tracger and Schcck finished among the first ten, and Cooper finished in eleventh place, Lang failed to finish. In 1916, the first place was won by a Ransome High School runner and in 1917, Lippincott of Lostanr High School finished in first place. Next fall we are looking forward to these runners who did so well this year to win the third annual run for La Salle-Peru.

VARSITY TRACK At the start of the 19z7 track season Coach Fellows was confronted with the problem of develo ing a track team out of green material. There were great gaps to fill in and Coach knew that he would have to work hard to get men to replace Fitzkee, johns and janewicz. However, with Captain Duncan, Locke, Rohde, Knapp, Holahan, Dusch, and a host of other capable men, Coach Fellows developed a team that was by far the most outstanding in the history of L.-P. While no brilliant stars were to be found, the team was a star team for it scored heavily in all events. Duncan was a sure winner in the high hurdles and high jump, Locke and Rohde won the dashesg Knapp took the low hurdles, Holahan, vaulting eleven feet and more, could not be beat in the le vault, while for the third successive year Dusch achieved success in the no and 440 yard dashes. Igiapp and Young got their share of points in the long distance runs and in the field events, Bernardi, Cicci, and Seghi brought up the group. So with a well-balanced team, L.-P. triumphed easily in both the Illinois Valley and District Meets, being nearly go points ahead of their nearest competitors.

Babe Schalla was high point and the mainstay of the Junior team. BASKETBALL 1 917 The seventh hour class was the victor in the inter-gym-class tournament that was held February 14. A The Senior team lived up to its old record of never losing a game and are Champs, as usual. Next year the other teams may have some chance to win honors. BASEBALL 1917 As we watch the girls' baseball tournament we agree that our teams would make the Cubs feel pretty uneasy. The sixth period class played a whooping good game and won the inter-gym-class honors. Q In the inter-class tournament, the snappy Sophomore team came out on top. The Sophs have an excellent team and should be real stars by their Senior year. VOLLEYBALL 192.7 4 The third period is the proud possessor of the inter-gym-class volleyball title. The seventh period was a mean rival, but the third period was finally victorious. The inter-class volleyball tournament was won by the Junior class. The Senior team, not properly organized, lost its game by forfeit.

The Freshmen-Sophomore battle was very exciting, and the underclassmen held sway for most of the four quarters. The game ended in a tie score, o-o, and as a result another game had to be played. The Sophomores entered this fray with a determination to end things at once. The Freshmen fought valiantly for a half but they could notestand the strain, and in the second half the Sophomores scored almost at will, the game ending with the score 16-o. The finals of the inter-class games promised some keen competition. The juniors were strengthened by several varsity members, and the Sophomores seemed to sense this. The game was played on a muddy field, and as neither team was able to score, the game ended o-o. The play-off was a different affair, however, and the Juniors scored a decisive victory, winning by two touchdowns. The final standings are as follows: W. L. T.

This year it seemed that the Seniors, last year's champions, would repeat again, but after fighting uphill all the way, the Juniors finally came out on top. The Sopho- mores furnished the upperclassmen some real competition, even beating the Seniors out for second place honors. The Freshmen, coached by Mr. O'Laughlin, struggled for eleven games for a victory, and in many cases they were barely nosed out. They entered the last game with a do or die spirit, and beat the Seniors for their lirst victory. Final standing: W. L.

Fire lighting equipment was rushed from La Salle, Peru. and Tontca but the help was almost helpless due to the low water pressure of the city mains.

MULES TAKEN FROM MINE ALIVE Mine of the Cherry Disaster gives up Mules entombed For seventeen years. SPECIAL Cherry, Illinois, May tj, 1948. Today workmen in probing the Cherry mine disaster were surprised to find that the mules entombed in the tnines for years had lived on the enormous store of grain and hay left in the mine when the mine workers were forced to llee in front of the smoke from the Iire which had swept the main passages. Water had found its way to the cavern enclosing the mules through crevices of slipping rock at one end of the barns. When the mules were brought to the surface and blinded by the strong light several of the mules brayed loudly and ran to a nearby pasture.

She has a friend who has quite a line Why, I've seen her winking two or three times - But don't be astonished-when I tell you this flirt Is really no other than our own dear Gert . Then there's a pair who are seen much together They can be found in any fair weather Down at a store where bread, rolls, and cake Are sold to the people, at no fabulous rate. A musical male-if you would like Blue eyes-a moustache-even a pipe He drives, he plays, he swears, he sings This man who has charge of -various things, Then there comes one who scares students so They call him the King of Hobgoblin Row For those who take Math and for those who are late He quietly and quickly decides on their fate. A teacher wlio's jolly, and whose jokes are quite keen Is one who tries scaring us out of our teens But for scoldings from her-we show little fear When things go wrong, she just says, The idear! Such are our teachers on Faculty Row Really not half had after all-you know They're only human-and Nor divine As we've found out-many a time. Jean Ch ristopher.

Well, you just mind what your father said, young lady, directed Mrs. O' Riley, And don't you be going over thirty hve miles an hour. Oh don't kid the populous, ma, giggled Peggy, This old relic isn't good for more than twenty-live. Say ifl put her up to thirty you wouldn't be able to pick up the pieces. Oh well! Good-bye. Land a goodness, gasped Mrs. O'Riley as she sank into the big parlor chair, I'll be a nervous wreck before that child gets home. Her father shouldn't have given her that car. What's a body to do though when she starts coaxin'? Shake a leg, Molly, shouted Peggy as she stopped in front of her friend's home, We'll never get to that game on time. My, but you're too slow-for words. Say, smarty, I've been waiting for ten minutes. Anyway, what's the rush? Rome wasn't built in a day, laughed Molly as she seated herself beside Peggy. Isn't that bus behind us an old rattle trap, asked Peggy when they were a few miles out of town. , 'Iiggers, Peg, gasped the surprised Molly, It's a cop. Whatever shall we do? The astonished Peggy was given no time for thought. Pull over to the side of the road and make it snappy, shouted the lTl0tOl'-COP as he pulled up even with Peg's car. Say what do you think this is? A race-track? l1e demanded after Peggy had politely complied with his Hrst request. . No, don't say anyth1n', he jeered as Peggy was about to speak. 'fI've heard those hard luck lines before. I suppose this old can will only go thirty-five. Well, remember this one and tell it to your friends. You were going hfty. Now don't tell me that the baby's sick and you're going for a doctor. That's old too. Oh I'm wise to all these hard luck SIZOFICS. What's your name? I'll just give you a calling card and you can drop in and see the judge. - ' Peggy O'Riley, sir, answered Peggy in a very meek voice. O'Riley, did you say? questioned the motor cop. Well can you beat that? Why didn't you say you were Irish? Here I' ve wasted a good lecture all fornothingf' he said as he tore the fatal card into tiny bits. O thank you so much.'

Oh, be yourself, Peg, giggled Molly, you look like a ghost. You were speechless for once. ' Well, maybe I was but I'm not anymore, laughingly replied Peggy, just wait till we tell the kids.

He holds a station agent's job, A work requiring quite a knob g But a mental lapse he had one night That left him in a sorry plight. He waited outside in the dark For the bright headlight to part The mist that shrouded every rail With its damp and smokelike veil. At last, when he could stand no more, He went inside and closed the doorg Alas! cried he, I wait in vain, g For that bloomin', blank, blank train!

Ji rf N Q' gp, A CLEVER GIRL l-lullo, Shorty, are you going to the masquerade tonight? called Bob to his chum Tom who was well known or his short stature. Nothing else but, answered an enthusiastic Tom, Did you know they were offering a prize to the person with the cleverest costume, and another one to who- ever could recognize that person? he continued. Yes, and they might just as well give those last twenty dollars to me now, no one in this town could ever fool me, said Bob conceitedly. Oh, there is no doubt but you will get it, Tom said sarcastically. Of all the conceited people, you are the worst, I know, he added. Well, Shrimp, there is not much danger of getting the other prize, I could pick you out in one glance, said Bob angered by Tom s remark. Don't be too sure of yourself. Well, I will see you tonight, said Tom and he started home smiling mischievously. Bob arrived at the masquerade rather late as he had spent much time fussing with his costume. He ap ared very striking in the costume of a colonial gentleman. It was very elaborate anciDI1ad frills of lace in the sleeves and collar. With a small black mask covering the upper part of his face, he felt well satisfied with his ap- pearance. He glanced through the crowd in search of his chum Tom, he could not locate him but he noticed a large crowd of gentlemen in one corner. He wandered ove.I wondering what the attraction was. Within the crowd was the center of attrac- tion, a slim rather short girl. She was in-carmen, from the fan-shaped comb in her hair to the red high-heels of her dancing slippers-Carmen, however, with eyes and nose in temporary retirement behind a red silk mask. She had a beautiful Spanish shawl covering her shoulders. Bob saw that one of his friends had her dance card, he grabbed for it and put his name down for two dances. Bob had no idea who this girl could be and concluded that she must be a stranger. After what seemed like hours to him, he claimed his first dance. This is mme, I think, he said with a bow he thought befitting a colonial gentleman, She nodded. When they started dancing, Bob was given the impression that her slippers were too short because she danced rather awkwardly. Neither Bob nor the girl had much to say during the dance. The time arrived for the selection of the cleverest costume, the strange girl in red was selected and presented with a twenty dollar bill. The judges then asked if anyone recognized her. Not even our conceited Bob could identify this mysterious person and this clever girl received the other twenty dollars. Bob was again dancing with the lucky irl who was the sensation of the evening, this time Bob was not tongue-tied but hadgmuch to say. When asked for her name, she just smiled. At this point the time for unmasking was announced. Bob was delighted that he was dancing with her at this lucky moment, for now the mystery would be solved. Slowly she took off her mask and then shouted with laughter. Surprise, horror, and anger passed over Bob's faceg the girl was his chum Shorty. I thought no one in this town could fool you, Tom said gleefully, and he could not keep a tone of triumph out of his words. Oh, you couldn't have fooled me if you hadn't been dressed up in such outlandish clothes, returned Bob rather weakly. Laura Culbertson. Page Om Hundred Tbirg-:cum H5531 Q Ti- .

A TALE OF Woe Between his moans and his sobbing When our history lesson's not through Comes at wild exclamation from Maxic j. C. students! Woe unto you. A wild disorder about us, The patter of Maxie's feet, He jumps from his chair to the doorway, But the enemy does not retreat. From our haven we hear in the hall-way, As they clatter down the stair The buzz and whirr of their prattlc Which Max terms- Collegiate Dare. A mad scramble from, the stairway As noisily on they go Leaving his history students To hear Max's tale of woe That's collegiate style, if you please, He loudly cries in rage, Instead of being collegiate, They should just act their age. Five hundred of our high school students Could bustle through this hall, And yet I'll wager by my neck, There'd be no noise at all. Collegiate, bellows Max again, Their feet are made of lead, He mumbles other compliments, Which had best be left unsaid. Again he speaks convincin ly, I wish that at this schoof They'd have a Private hallway, For each collegiate fool. . .- -Marjorie Plym. WHO ARE YOU? l'm Art Warmington-who are you?

It had a humble beginning, for the first freshman class had but thirty-two members, and the courses of study were necessarily limited. However, as the enrollment increased to fifty in 1915, to eighty-two in 1916, and to ninety- seven in 1917, the number of courses has been increased until now the college offers a two-year curricula in Engineering, Pre-Law, Pre-Medicine, Pre-Commerce, Educa- tion and Liberal Arts and Sciences. An adequate faculty has been provided to care for the courses in the various curricula. The instructors have either a master's degree or its equivalent and many of them have completed a substantial amount of work toward a doctorate. In spite of the increased enrollment the classes are still small, and the students have the advantage of individual instruction and frequent consultation with their teachers. In 1918 the college was transferred from the Recreation Building to the second floor of the new building provided for the township high school and junior college. ' A definite programme of social activities was planned for the first year with the organization of the Cojun Literary Society and the Dramatic Society which have been important factors in the student life of the college. This year an additional social event, the first Annual Faculty Reception, was held at the Illinois Valley Manufacturers' Club in the Hotel Kaskaskia. In the spring of 1917, the College ventured into inter-collegiate activities, participating in its first oratorical contest and in February 1918 the first varsity basketball tean1 engaged in inter-collegiate games. The Student Council came into existence in January 192.8 and has rendered excel- lent service to the college. Now in its fourth year the La Salle-Peru-Oglesbyjunior College with its progres- sive spirit and with its comprehensive educational and social programs is rapidly becoming an important institution of the Tri-Cities.

X Y THE JUNIOR COLLEGE MOVEMENT HE increasing popularity of education beyond the elementary school has brought about many changes in high school and college education. The scope of the modern high school has been extended to include a wider range of subjects than those required for admission to the colleges and universities. Subjects that were formerly included in the college curricula are now taught in the high school. Because many attempts have been made in the high school to provide post-graduate work on the level of the first two years of the college, there is an overlapping in the curricula of these institutions which will continue until the present system of education is reorganized. A recent movement toward the re- organization of secondary and college education has taken place in the introduction of the junior college into our educational system which has been established to meet this demand and to meet the economic and educational needs of the local com- munity. Although the junior college is a recent movement in the educational system of our country, it is an established part of the school systems of Europe. The purpose of the junior college is, first, to provide a two-year college course for students who will not go on to the university, but who wish to round out their education, second, to meet the requirements of those students who desire to continue their education in the university. The curricula usually include those courses offered in the first two years of the colleges of liberal arts and sciences or the pre-requisites for the professional schools of the university. The junior college also offers courses suited to the civic, cultural and vocational needs of the community in which it is located. ln the junior college, opportunities for a higher education are offered to the stu- dents who cannot afford to leave home after graduation from high school. Many high school graduates need the extension of home influences during the critical years of their immaturity. They are not prepared to accept the responsibilities demanded of them by the independent student life of the university. They still need the influence of the home which is made possible by the junior college. The large entering classes of the university have made individual instruction impossible at a time when the student needs it most, As a result, many of the students during the first two years are not able to adjust themselves to mass instruction and they are compelled to drop out. Because of the small classes, the junior college is better able to supervise the activities of the students and to offer individual attention and instruction. In twenty years, the junior college, an institution practically unknown in our country, has had a remarkable growth. In 1911, there were approximately two hun- dred and five junior colleges with over fifteen thousand students enrolled. Today, there are approximately three hundred and seventy-six junior colleges with an en- rollment of more than thirty-five thousand students. Junior colleges are to be found in all but nine states. Authorities prophesy that the movement will become in- creasingly popular in the near future. Thus another step in the democratic ideal of making possible education for all will be realized. ....-...... .,. ..A.,.. .,... .....r.-Y.,...

STUDENT COUNCIL HE organization of theLStudent Council was the most important development of the academic year. The purpose of thc Council is to further those aims, and purposes which promoted the founding of the College four years ago namely, to develop personalityg to train young men and women to thinkg to instill in them ideals and habits of service to country and humanityg and through the establishment of the right civic and ethical attitudes to lay the foundations of suc- cessful human careers. The CounciI's greatest achievement came in the form of a proposal of an Honor System for the Study Hall and its subsequent adoption by the student-body. The Honor System has been a remarkable success and will probably lead to other forms of student government. The Council plans to sponsor a junior college social in April and the annual formal dance in May. We hope that these First efforts of our infant organization are indicative of strength to come when the Student Council will occupy the influential position it deserves to have in the LaSalle-Peru-Oglesby Junior College.

An in- creased membership in the society which is not restricted to the student-body, is open to faculty memhers and alumni, is a manifestation of the interest in the organization. Meetings are held every three weeks in the Lecture Room of the Recreation Building and are open to every one connected with the college. Each year the society has been trying to fullill more completely its literary and social purpose. The literary programs include current events, readings, criticisms, reports and debates. lX lusic'numhers are frequently given hy memlwers of the society, occasionally, hut all too rarely, a memher of the faculty appears on the program. The social activities of the Coiun this year have varied. Socials are held frequently after the literary meetings. Last fall a picnic was held at Starved Rock State Park. Last spring the annual outing was held near Dixon, Illinois. The entire student- hody is usually invited to the socials, especially to the annual affairs.

The society is formally organized under a constitution which provides that the oliicers shall consist ofa president, a vice-president, and a secretary-treasurer. Oflicers are elected once each semester of the school year at the lirst meeting of that semester. The president, however, is elected at the last meeting ofthe semester preceding his term ofoflice. The membership in the society is not limited to those who aspire to appear on the stage. There is always a place and a demand for the artist, the business head, the electrician, the entertainer, and the person who is willing to co-operate. Thus, membership in the society is open to any regularly enrolled student in the junior College. lt is the general plan of the Dramatic Club to have three or four meetings in a school year. These meet- ings are oftentimes followed by a social hour which is passed in dancing and in playing games. The en- tertainments presented are of a dramatic nature-readings, the presentation of one and two act plays, and other special features. Then, as a climax of the year, the club produces one big play which is open to the public. lt is only necessary to mention the names ofthe plays which have so far submitted to prove their merit- Captain Applejackf' in 192.53 The Goose Hangs High in 1916, and The Poor Nut'-' in 197.7 As yet, the club is, as it were, in the chrysalis stageg it still has much to accomplish. But the year 192.7-18 has seen a decided advance in its membership, its influence and its achievementsg and in future years, the Dramatic Society is destined to hold a still more prominent and effective role in the activities of the junior College.

The track in front of a section of the bleachers. Five minutes later. ACT lll-Living Room, Psi Sigma House, That Night. T started just as all plays startArry-ours, try-ours--and more try-outseuntil Iinally a cast was chosen. Rehearsals were scheduled in the same old manner, sighs were emitted, and expressions of despair were heard on many occasions. Bur, linally, the play grew into a living, breathing bit of life. lt was in at campus book-store, as you who saw the play remember, that the Poor Nut of the school hrsr aspired to the laurels of Paddock and Nurmi. lnspiren by the admiration and encouragement of Margie, and brought to a realization ol the awfulness of his inferiority complex by Julia, the psychoanalyst fiend, John determined to do his bit in the big relay race between Ohio State and Wisconsin. Who could forget the big scene of the second act?-a breathless, cheering crowd led by the impetuous Magpie-the runners warming up for the linal relay-the Poor Nut lanky and awkward in his track suit, nervously awaiting his turn to run-the even voice of the starter- Get on your mark-get set-here! come back, you boob-get on your mark-get set- They're oli'! Wallie's ahead -Come on Wallie, keep it up, boy! M Wisconsin's passing! e Yeah! Macky- Pass him up, Pete -The people in thc grand stand cheering madly, the audience in front, following with bated breath the imaginary runners, found themselves cheering with the crowd and leaning tensely forward in their seats. And now, the race is three-fourths over, Ohio State is leading by at least ten yards, it is the Poor Nut's turn to run. Get back, you foolg don't cross that line-Now! A wail of despair, shouts of ridicule and derision-he's dropped the stick! I-le'll never catch Hoyt now - run you oil Can - Miller's catching up to him -- he's passing W Yeah'! Miller. A broken tape-a cry of he spiked me the final decision-and the race is over. Miller wins! The crowd goeswild and the curtain closed on a scene of mad delight and ecstacy. From the moment of his victory, The Poor Nut gradually acquires an air of assertiveness and independence which came to a glorious climax in the last act when The Poor Nut linally realized his own powers and capabilities and his libido was turned outward.

TEACHER -TRAINING NE of the most important functions of the junior College is to provide oppor- tunities for students who do not go on to the university, but who desire to continue their education. The junior College is able to serve the local com- munity by including in the curricula many vocational courses, the I110St popular of which is the teacher training department. The interest has increased each 'year until at the present more than twenty-six per cent of the college enrollment is in this department. The curriculum has been expanded to provide courses for hrst and second grade teachers' certiiicates. Practice teaching is accorded by the local schools. The student is given not only a thorough training in the theory of educa- tion but also an opportunity to work with the teachers in real teaching situations. The Junior College prides itself on the number of alumni who have been successful in their teaching positions. Pirgr Our Hlmdml Fifljjfzfr Front row: FULLENWEIDER, Gaoss, MCCLARNAN, Horrxuw, Smrtu.

THE COLLEGE VARSITY BASKETBALL SQUAD UE to the fact that the lirst varsity team was not organized until late in january a big basketball schedule was impossible. An attempt was made to secure games with several junior college teams in Chicago and with the iunior college teams of Aurora and Joliet, but we found that their schedules were lilled up for the year. On March 17, Coach Fellows attended the Northern Illinois Conference ofilunior Colleges in Chicago where a resolution was passed making it possible for the La Salle-Peru-Ogleshy junior College to play the junior college teams in the Conference the coming season. ln the four games listed in the lgllq record. the local varsity team lead tg: to the last few minutes of play. The winning basket in the hrst game was made just as the whistle ende the game. The last quarter hoodoo became such a hyword on the campus that at a meeting of candidates for next year's team a motion was carried to play the last quarter lirst. 191s RECORD The l .-O.
