To Lincoln High Good bye, dear Lincoln High, good bye, As we think of leaving thee, there comes a sigh, For it won’t be long until the time is o’er, When we shall enter your doors no more. Good bye, dear Lincoln High, good bye. Oh! how swiftly the years glide by, One hardly starts until another is nigh, But when to you we come for power, We linger, O, linger for many an hour. Good bye, dear Lincoln High, good bye. Oh! gratefully give your knowledge most high, To all who are ready and willing to try, To all who are honest and worthy of fame, For they are the ones who will play life’s. game. Good bye, dear Lincoln High, good bye. We’ve had good times, dear Lincoln High At parties and banquets in days gone by. As others follow along our line, Remember the class of Twenty-nine.

REACTION Apparatus The empty school-house; bottle full of ambitious juniors (must not be brought in contact with lower classmen which might contain a per cent of impurities). Method Place the Juniors in a school-house and carefully note their ac- tion. It will be noticed that at once the small particles of individual human properties begin to move around with great rapidity. Noth- ing is needed to start the reaction except Miss Lyon, Miss Brown, Miss Harlan, or any of the advisers which are used as catalytic agents. At first a brownish color is formed, which later is turned in- to colors—purple and gold. Later, a light gas which is constantly moving is formed and this is called school spirit and has PEP for its formula; then a heavy dark liquid called studies is formed which these particles carry. Once in awhile one of these drops is dropped, but it is only when the liquid is too light and a heavier one is desired. After leaving in the jar for about four years pour out into the world and watch the change. SE SAO PSN CNS SRE A ES PNR ERED The Junior Play The play “The Youngest,” a three act comedy was presented to Web- ster City play lovers on November 14. “The Youngest” is a human and ap- pealing comedy of contemporary American life by Phillip Barry. The Cast Richard Winslow Lloyd Karr Alan Martin Stewart Lund Mrs. Winslow....Geraldine Gilmore Oliver Winslow Robert Buell Martha Winslow Janet Cutler Mark Winslow Elston Segar Augusta Martin.....Mildred Meyer Nancy Blake Phyllis Phillips Katie Mavis Wheeler Richard Winslow, the hero, is pictured as a brow beaten son who wants to write but is hindered at every step by his family who insist upon a busi- ness career for him. A charming guest of the Winslows, Nancy Blake, suc- ceeds in helping him overcome his inferiority complex and occupy his right- ful place in the family circle. s Fun-loving Muff, stern Oliver, teasing Mark, sophisticated Augusta, and understanding Mrs. Winslow all aid although unknowingly in making Richard over. This play was directed by Miss Lyon, Miss Bidwell, and Miss Harlan. The Sophomore Class ELSIE GUTHRIE BERNARD DEMORATSKY HARRIET SHAFER President Vice-President Sec’y and Treas.

Let’s give fifteen for the team and give it hard.” This was usually the first step on the part of the pep lead- ers in the process of creating that winning pep for Lincoln High. “What’s the matter with the yell leaders ?” “They’re all right.” They certainly succeeded in getting the support of the students at pep meetings and the crowd at games for the team, in order that they might win the game. 3ut that was not the only capacity in which they functioned. They were always on duty at contests and debates as well as games, and helped to win victory for Lincoln High. Verily, the yell leaders are the chief engineers of the big pep machine that has always been in dear old Lincoln. “Who are these yell leaders that you have been reading about?” They are Ruth Peterson, Irene Froning, and Stuart Lund. They were appointed by the students at the beginning of the year to serve the school to the best of their ability and we all agree they have done nobly. “Here’s to the yell leaders!! Long may they live!!” RUST Everyone knows Mr. Rust “our coach.”’ The school year opened with him getting all set to develop a group of boys into a_ football team which would represent Lin- coln High against other schools. No sooner was the football season over than he had to pick out the speediest men for basketball; and do some tremendous cage coaching to produce a winning team in that line. He then again launched into C. C. Coulter the track season to chase out some speed and spring to bring home the bacon. COULTER “Chuck” Coulter assisted Mr. Rust in coaehing the football boys. His presence on the grid iron and on the trips out of town was an inspiration to the boys, for his per- sonality added much fight and pep. He also started the Junior Col- lege boys out in basketball, but was unable to finish out the sea- son as he accepted a position in Saginaw, Michigan. He was well liked by the boys, and they all would fight their hardest for him. LAMSON Mr. Lamson who came here at the beginning of the second semes- ter stepped right into the boots of Mr. Coulter and _ started things moving again. He took charge of the Junior College basketball boys and although he had new tactics he certainly put the fight in the boys as was shown by the games played. NADEN “Our beloved’ shop and drawing instructor spends part time in get- ting men in trim also. He appear- ed regularly on the grid iron last fall working with some of the sec- ond team men and getting them started off at the real game. He also coached the second squad in basketball to lay a foundation for later years, R. L. Lamson FOOTBALL Although this season of football was not a success as far as the score was con- cerned, it did much in developing the boys who will be playing again next year. We are looking forward to a winning team for the coming season. Even though we always had the low end of the score the team of 1929 gave the Webster City fans a chance to see some good games. We feel that our boys showed good sportsmanship for every one of them “stuck it out to the end” taking all the hard knocks like men. Everyone went into the game with all the fight and determination he could muster and whether the game was won or lost he was there for the next. As is seen by the following schedule Webster City playe d some mighty hard games: Sept. 29 Boone Nov. 10 lowa Falls Oct. 6 East Waterloo Nov. 17 West Waterloo Oct. 13 Clarion Nov. 24 Fort Dodge Oct. 27 Eagle Grove Nov. 29 Humboldt Adair Dotson “Bud was a _ strong line man that hit ’em hard. He played end with one time spent at tackle. He did not get in all the games of the year, but play- ed a thrilling game while in action. He cannot be with the team next year, but may go to Junior Col- lege. Charles Callery His hard playing and grit at quarter- back made him a val- uable man on the team. The ball was usually directed OK as “Chet’’ did the signal calling. He was in every game of the sea- son and will be back to play again next year. Donald Seamonds Here was. another man that increased the worry of the num- ber of downs for the opposing team. He played guard occa- sionally but tackle was his chief job and he played it faithful- ly. “Don ’’? was a good sport and a_ valuable team mate all season but, sorry to say, he will not be playing again next year. Richard Hurst “Rich” was the fel- low to give the pig- skin the ride on the kick-off. He had the weight to put behind it on a punt and did so when necessary. His usual position was guard with a little work at end once in a while. We regret the loss of him greatly. Earl Ruebel Earl did not’ get much of a chance to show his’ stuff for Webster City, because he entered from Fort Dodge and only play- ed the last three games of the season. His consistent playing at end was the earn- ing power of his let- ter in such a_ short time. We lose him by graduation. Harry Wilson At half-back Harry always played a good, hard, game. He was an end runner worthy of praise on any team. Not a game was with- out Harry and not a minute passed that he wus not in action. We lament the loss_ of such a fine player on the grid iron. Merrill Bickford This year makes “Bick”? a three letter man at end and he has waged a_ worthy battle in every game in which he has _ tak- en part. He only missed a few minutes of play in the last sea- son’s schedule, but he will not have another season to do the same thing. Donald Frakes “Don’’ was a_ steady and lusty guard that always displayed plen- ty of serapping abil- ity in a game. He did not play every game, but was out to prac- tice and worked dili- gently all season. This was ‘‘Don’s” last sea- son of playing but he can be depended upon to support the teams in the future from the side lines. 4A Ay sy Leonard Curtis Virgil Stuart came through tackle man but handled a cog in the team- opponents exceptionally formances again next Lyle Jones Joe Stoker possession hitting backfielder more years to play, he en _e Howard Nickols The kick off was sometimes left to‘Fuz- zy’’ because he posses- sed the ability to sail the pig-skin far out into the ranks of the enemies. He usually filled an end _ position very capably but he was stationed at tackle afew games. Although he did not play every game, he will be with us three more years. Noble Johnson ‘ Nobe”’ developed the knack of getting hold of a man and “spilling’’ him when he had the ball. In other words, he turned out to be an A-1 tac- kle. He didn’t play every game, but fans found out his tackling ability while he _ did play. They will see him again next fall. Estle Black “Blackie” was a flashy backfield man and when _ something worth while happened, he usually deserved a share of the _ credit. He did not get to play all the time, but a majority of it. The school will miss him next year. Ralph Meyers A regular “Spartan”’ was Ralph in his role of tackle. He played the greater share of the season. The op- ponent that happened to be carrying through was usually up-set by Ralph, if anyone could do it. He played every game and we are sorry to say, that this is his last year. ————— — = Captain Richard Hurst. One glance at Captain Hurst would assure one that he was built for center. He showed wonderful ability in this position throughout his basketball career. He re- ceived honorable mention on the Register’s all-State team last year and we hope that he may be there again this year. We will certainly miss “Rich” as he gave our team the tip-off at practically all games.

Leonard Curtis This is a forward that the school is proud of and can rely on to play aé_= good game. He hasn’t play- ed all of the time this year, but fans have had a good chance to get acquainted with his shooting. We can watch him two more years since this is only his sophomore year in high school. Harry Wilson Harry was a_ good forward who was a constant worry to his opponents. He did some fine playing which everyone could not equal when sent into a game. Wilson and Curtis alternated as running mates to Butts. He will not play next year because of finishing his high school work this year. Basket Ball Who would have thought that such a “whirlwind” basketball team was to repre- sent Webster City this year? To teil the truth, we were a little skeptical, but Mr. Rust and the basketball boys soon showed us our doubts were without reason. For this year Webster City has had one of the most brilliant seasons ever enjoyed. The boys won game after game not by luck but by honest to goodness work—their defense, and their floor work which were wonderful to see. When our team comes out on the floor in their flashy white suits one feels a thrill for one knows there is power in those five boys—power to bring that score up from the lowest point to the winning’ point.

A list of his swift achievements shows that he did more than his share to bring glory to Lincoln High, and, indeed, to himself. A table of his rec- ords follows: State champion of 100 yard dash. Time: 10 flat. State champion of 220 yard dash. Time: 22 flat. (New record over that of 1924 of 723 8-10). Equal to North Central Six conference 100 yard dash record. New record winner of Conference 220 yard dash. Time: 23: 3-10. New record winner of Conference 440 yard dash. Time: 53: 6-10. Individual point winner at both the Ma- son City district and the North Central Six conference meets. Also winner of the 100 yard dash at Ce- dar Falls and Mason City district meets and 220 and 440 yard dashes at Mason City district and Grinnell meets. Winner of second in the 100 yard dash at Mason City National and Grinnell meets and broad jump at Conference meet. He also performed on the mile, half mile, and 440 yard relay teams. Raymond went to the Stag meet at Chi- cago and ran the 100 and 220 yard dashes in the fast heats but the competition was too strong for him to qualify for later heats. Webster City had a very successful 1928 track season as is shown by the number of letter men and the records of each of them. The chief character on the squad, it is needless to say, was our splendid captain, Raymond Burns. But he alone could not make up a complete squad for it was with the help of the other members also that our boys brought home the bacon. ; During the season Lincoln High was re at the Drake Relays, Teachers College meet at Cedar Falls home, North Central Six conference meet at home, nell meet, state meet at Ames, and National R presented by members of the track squad lar , a dual with Boone at district meet at Mason City, Grin- elays at Mason City. William Keast Bill” was sa mid-distance man, high jumper, and shot putter. He was on the cham- pion half and quar- ter mile relay teams. Sixth point winner in Confer- ence meet, win- ning high jump, height 5’ 6’, sec- ond shot put and 440 yard dash at the same meet, fourth in 440 at Grinnell, fourth in high jump at the Mason City district meet. “Bill left us at the end of the first semester this year. Cecil Segar We also had a ‘steeple chaser” on our team last year. This name seems appropriate for Cecil because he ran some good high and low hur- die races even if it was his first year. He was third in 120 yard high hur- dles and fourth in 220 low hurdles at the Conference meet. Everyone wishes he could be back but he left in 28. Melford France Skinny’ un- doubtedly played a hard season of basketball in the winter but he was always out with the robins in the spring to get in trim for the track season. He was a good field man, but did not perform on the cinders. He was second point win- ner, sailed the dis- cus 96 feet 4 inch- es for another first, and was second in the pole vault at the Conference meet. Third in pole vault at Grinnell. This was his last year for Lincoln High. Marion Hughes The team was rather short of dis- tance men last year but Hughes was a ‘half miler’ that made up for some lack of material. He won the half mile in 2:07 6-10 at the Conference meet and took third at Mason City district meet. There is one more season ahead of him. Wayne Pass- waters He was a sprin- ter who ran away with the baton and gave it to one of his teammates to carry to the tape for Lineoln High. Wayne developed into a good unit on the relay teams that were the champion sprint teams, but did not perform in any special events. He will be pacing for us this spring. Lawrence Kel- ting ‘“ Speedsters, “steeple-chasers,”’ and here is a “olobe-trotter.”’ At least he shad en- durance that might qualify him for globe-trotting. Al- though he did not get out until late and had to work, he surprised us in turning out to be a mile man. He only competed in a few meets, placing third in the mile at the Conference, and fifth in the district meet. Jun- ior College claims him this year. Harry Wilson With football and basketball ability to his credit, his track achieve- ments make him an all round ath- lete. He “was a worthy fourth of the 440 yard, half mile, and mile re- lay teams and help- ed win those cham- pionships. Harry not only ran but also did some leap- ing. He won sec- ond in the 220 yard dash at the Conference meet. We can watch him break the wind again this spring. Leonard White Leonard was al- ways an old stand- by on the team and expended every effort to bring glory to Lincoln High. He was a “budding” half mile champion, but it was unfortunate for him to have an attack of appendi- ecitus early in the season. His effort at the Drake Re- lays seemed to be the cause of the trouble. Leon ard will not run this year. Martin Crovy- 1sler As a mid-distance spring man, Mar- tin furnished com- petition for many of the other fel- lows on the track. He did not com- pete in any special events during the season, but alter- nated with Pass- waters on the sprint relay teams. Martin will be a member of ‘pony express’’ for trans- porting the baton again this coming season. Richard Hurst Here was our big “lead slinger.’’ He proved to be about as good at this as with the air ‘“‘bub- bles.”” It took a big man with plenty of foree to heave the shot and “Rich” possessed both qual- ities. ‘Rich’? was strictly a field man not appearing on the cinders at all. He won the shot put in the confer- ence meet, tossing it 41 ft. 6544 in,, and was fourth in the Mason City dis- trict meet. a The girls belonging to the G. A. A. besides having many good times together at the meetings, have also done much to promote the sports and activities of the year. The base ball and basketball tournaments were sponsored by this organization. The suc- cess of the organization was largely due to Miss Wilson’s ability to “stir up” the interest in the girls’ physical training work. Lois Wilson Miss Wilson also gave an exhibition to the public which demonstrated the many different activities and sports in which the girl of today may participate. No girl should spend her time around the house wishing for something to do, for as shown by the play in this program there are many sports for the modern girl. Every girl from the seventh grade on took part in this program, and it was, indeed, an evening of enjoyment for those who attended. G. A. A.

Declam 6 e Lincoln High can well be proud of the Declamatory people this year for they won in the North Central six Agnes Peterson contest which gave us the right to keep the cup which was won from Humboldt in the quadrangular contest last year. It was a real honor, indeed, to win this contest for each of the six towns: Eagle Grove, Humboldt, Clarion, Algona, Hampton, and Webster City had six con- testants participating in each division, dramatic, humorous and extemporaneous. However, before this a home contest was held at Lincoln High. Those plac- ing first and second in each division were Helen Western and Robert Buell in dra- matic, Herbert Horn and Helen Olson in extemporaneous, and Dick Desmond and Opal Miller in humorous. In the preliminary contest held at Boone three firsts were won: Robert Buell in dramatic, Dick Desmond in humorous, and Oliver Olson in oratorical. Robert and Dick again came through with firsts with Oliver taking second, at the sub-district contest held at Webster City. Much credit for the successful season is due our coach, Miss Peterson.

As in basketball it is not so much the score that counts but the way they played the game. Although Webster City has not always come out ahead, each debater received a world of good from the debates. They have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the season. Each debater has left behind a mark by which he can be further identified. Betty Stevens has always been on the job of arguing. She never quits. And cer- tainly what would we do without Elston Herrald, for he has been the walking’ en- cyclopedia. Even Miss Brown or Miss Virtue couldn’t ask a question that he could not answer. But leave it to Robert Buell to outline. Bob certainly did a wonder- ful job of summarizing; one, two, three. The debate teams, however, would be lost without Dick Desmond, for from his large vocabulary he has given us some very clever uses of words and phrases.

Music Miss Whitten is in charge of all the musical organiza- Letitia Whitten tions of both Junior and Senior High with the exception of the band. The double quartet, one of the most popular musical organizations, has taken part in many programs as well as the Junior and Senior High girls’ glee clubs and mixed choruses. A very unique program was presented on February fourteenth by all of these organizations in honor of Valentines day. The whole gym was appropriately dec- orated with hearts. However, the stage was the center of attraction, being one large valentine. Miss Whitten certainly showed her artistic ability in planning this scene. Each group did its best in this program, which gave the public an opportun- ity to hear the fine work of these people and their director. One realizes what the band means at a basketball game for it certainly “stirs , up” the “pep.” Through Mr. Schaub’s efforts the band has been a success this i) year.

Marjorie Iliff, The Operetta ° Sa “Pickles” was the operetta given this year by the mixed chorus which is un- der the direction of Miss Whitten. This operetta was a real success and it was doubly appreciated as none was given last year because of the illness of Miss Whitten. Many pretty scenes, many pretty costumes, and much good singing were en- joyed by those who attended either the afternoon or evening performance. The cast is as follows: Fred Hutchinson i Robert Buell Madella Miller Thelma Doty Wayne Passwaters Geraldine Gilmore Rumski J. H. Pennington Carlisle Pringle el ON CG ae eee die eee Martin Crovisier Lady Vivian Inabelle Walker Besides these were the waiters, and choruses of the Viennese maidens, bur- gers, tourists and gypsies. A synopsis of the operetta follows: Jonas H. Pennington, an American mil- lionaire pickle manufacturer, with his daughter, June, arrives in Vienna amidst preparations for the annual carnival. To his consternation he finds Jones, his advertising expert, advertising Pennington’s Peter Piper Pickles too well. An old acquaintance, Lady Vivian, a wealthy Englishwoman, also arrives on her annual quest in search of her daughter, who was lost near Vienna at carnival time when a baby. Kinski, the pompous police chief, plots to substitute the lost child of Lady Vivian and marry her for the fortune. A band of gypsies visits the carnival led by Jigo, the Chieftain, and his supposed daughter Ilona. Events all lead, to the Gypsy camp, where a magic pool reveals the face of Lady Vivian’s daughter. Arthur Crefont, a poor artist, wins recognition of his art and also the hand of.June Pennington. Lady Viv- ian consents to become Mrs. Pennington; Kinski’s plot is exposed; Ilona is re- stored to her mother and Jones is rewarded with success in his campaign for the hand of Ilona. = ARR FA = —— a a =e, : eS Pecscigsaa’ do. — — —— x) = i ma BLL Mas pay . uy Re Features he we a | a a Be : eee: 2 fs = Yess panhisic: Z Chemistry Club Top row (left) Herbert Horn, John Olson, Ralph Graham, Hiram Rasmussen, Mr. Charles C.

Chemistry Club HE Alpha Chi Tau Chemistry Club was newly organized this year under the supervision of C. C. Coulter. This club met once every two weeks, and at these meetings lectures on various phases of chemistry such as radium, sodium, and sulphur were given, but lectures are not all the club did. A week before Christmas the members met in the science room of the Central building, and enjoyed a social evening play- ing games. Everyone ate so many eskimo pies and chocolate doughnuts that they were quite unable to study the next day. New officers were chosen every six weeks so that each member might hold an office during the year, and have a chance to preside over a meeting. 2� off ON Ushers Brigade Top Row—(left) Dorothy Johnston, Opal Miller, Janet Cutler, Herbert Horn, Mrs. Pray, Wayne Pass- waters, Margaret Ann Austin, Irene Froning. Second Row—(left) Alice Younkee, Leota Nickerson, Phyllis Phillips, Helen Olson and Ruth Burnstedt. The Ushers’ Brigade + ¢ Sd HIS was the first year that the Ushers Brigade was organized. It consisted of four juniors, four sen- ior girls, two junior college girls, and two senior boys which were organized under the supervision of Mrs. H. B. Pray. The duty of this brigade was to usher at all events that took place in the gym, and to be ready to help at any time. The brigade with the help of Miss Lois Wilson pre- pared a clever drill which was given several times during the year. The ushers with their nifty red costumes func- tioned very faithfully during the school term. Normal Training Club Top Row—W. Barr, P. Bosworth, R. Shelton, Miss Peterson. Second Row—B.

What did you say? A woman hater? I say “Nay!” For if he’s one, tell me pray Why the girls he will delay? Oft we see him in the hall Leaning up against the wall Talking to them; or he’ll call Sometimes one and sometimes all. Does he hate ’em? May be so— But the world will never know; For his hatred doesn’t show. Let us hope his hate won’t grow. Really he’s a pleasant chap Tho’ his face we'd like to slap When at girls he takes a rap Wishing they weren’t on the map. But I ask what would you do, Lloyd, without a girl or two? Sure you must admit it’s true They make life interesting for you! —One of those ‘‘Gosh-Darn Girls.” Junior Senior Hunt Sd ¢ + Sa It was on the night of November fifth that the Juniors and Sen- iors met in the gym to have the long waited for Junior-Senior Hunt. Due to the bad weather of the previous dates set for this event it was postponed several times. The Seniors left the building at seven-thirty and at eight o’clock the excited Juniors were all set for the adventure. But the sly Sen- iors, like previous years seemed to have mysteriously dropped off the earth for only a few bunches were found. When the curfew blew every one came in and the Juniors had prepared a very clever pro- gram in which “Aunt Bess’ seemed to have shown herself to be quite an interlocutor. After this refreshments were served and every one went home agreeing it had been a very enjoyable event. a 4 zy ZF | ee i?

Although winning only two games, the football season was one of which we have every reason to be proud. The team went through the season fighting and playing the game to the end. The outstanding feature of the team this season was the teamwork displayed. We are proud of our team and what they have done.

Of course W. C. J. C. wanted to win, but sometimes defeats are good for us, especially when taken to push forward to greater efforts of attainment. The team, it is true, was defeated time and again, but it is well to remember they competed with some unusually fast and strong teams. The small margins of some of the games lost show that the other teams had to fight hard to win. C5) � basketball season appeared to be a failure when viewed on pa- All in all, W. C. J.

With a group of twelve men, the most of whom were without basket- ball experience, coaches “Chuck” Coulter and “Bob” Lamson were “hard put” to round out enough material to play at all. The members of the squad were R. Henegar, C. Gore, R. Hall, J. Brewer, kK. Sohns, W. Keast, L. Mulholland, E. Omstead, C. Pringle, R. Cramer, G. Haggard, and H. Jones. Of these the first six will receive the honor “W”. Conference games were scheduled with Fort Dodge, Eagle Grove, Estherville, Mason City, Sheldon, and Boone. Non-conference games were also played with Wartburg, Waldorf, and Britt. aN Women’s Athletic Association A new organization, an ahtletic club for women, has been formed in Junior College this year, to promote interest in various sports, including basketball, baseball, tennis, and track. At the head of the organization for the year is the W. A. A. board, consisting of the president, Miss Evalyn Wilcox; sports mana- ger, Miss Olive Kopecky; treasurer, Miss Viola Paulsen; secretary, Miss Lorene Marvel; and social manager, Miss Esther Drackley. These, with the aid of the physica l training director, Miss Lois Wil- son, attend to the affairs of the club. A meeting is held once every month with a committee in charge of the dinner. From those interested in any one sport an all college team is chosen. This team competes with the high school in the tournament. Members of the first baseball team were awarded 100 points toward a letter. Next in the activities is basketball. To win 150 points a girl must play at least eight quarters during the tournament. Mem- bers of the track team are also entitled to 100 points. Additional points are awarded for hiking and tennis. When a girl has won 700 points in the various sports she is en- titled to a scarlet and black monogram bearing the letters W. A. A. Such an honor is well worth the effort. The members of the organization are: Margaret Ann Austin, Ada Berryhill, Ruth Burnstedt, Mildred Crosby, Helen Donaldson, Esther Drackley, Mary Ferguson, Claire Hoge, Alice Kamrar, Olive Kopecky, Celia Lewis, Louise Marvel, Lorene Marvel, Viola Paulsen, Edythe Peterson, Margaret Swanson, Catherine Wehrheim, Dorothea Western, Evalyn Wilcox. ‘The Glee Club HE Junior College Glee Club, directed by Miss Letitia Whitten was a new organization in the Junior College this year. Both freshman and sophomore girls were elig- ible to membership. The costumes chosen for the club were white sweaters and black skirts. The glee club sang at declamatory contests, basketball games, the Musical, and Bac- calaureate Services. During the latter part of the year, the girls gave a musical tea at which they sang the Cantata, Gipsy Suite, by Liugi Denza. This is a group of eleven musical num- bers, solos, duets and choruses, and deals with the different phases of gipsy life. The Members Are: Sopranos—Louise Marvel, Claire Hoge, Esther Drackley, 2uth Burnstedt, Alice Kamrar. Second Sopranos—Margaret Swanson, Celia Lewis, Ada Berryhill and Margaret Ann Austin. Altos—Lorene Marvel, Olive Kopecky and Viola Paulsen. Pianist—Edythe Peterson.

Love’’ 4 A 4 awe) N En of the outstanding events of the college year was the (e presentation of “Puppy Love,” April 26, in the Cen- tral Auditorium. The play itself is a good three act com- edy with plenty of humorous situations and snappy repartee. The Webster City play goers were granted a most enjoyable evening at the expense of “Puppy Love.” The action takes place at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Pollard, of Mayfield. Mrs. Margaret Brent and her daughter, Jean, are visiting here to break up a young love affair between Jean and Byron Lockhart. The latter is a son of a rival social leader whom Mrs. Brent dislikes. Byron follows Jean to Mayfield, and obtains a position of chauffeur to Jean’s Uncle Sylvanus. About this time Mrs. Brent develops a love affair of her own, and leaves on a house boat party. Jean and Byron are now able to see each other every day. The course of true love never did run smooth, and so all characters find. Medora says that puppy love only leads to a dog’s life, but she is persuaded by Andy Baxter to help the youngsters. The play gallops to a finish in the most thrilling manner when Andy Baxter surprisingly fills his position of Justice of Peace, and we have two unexpected weddings. Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounced it to you, trippingly on the tongue; but if you mouth it, as many of your players do, I had as lief the town-crier spoke my lines. Nor do not saw the air too much with your hand, thus; but use all gently; for in the very torrent, tempest, and, as I may say, whirlwind of your passion, you must acquire and beget a temp- erance that may give it smoothness—Hamlet Act III, Scene II.
