GHOST TRAIN With a shrieking whistle, a woman's cry, and a thousand thrills the senior play, Ghost Train , comes around the bend in the track on the night of March 19, the very night on which twenty years ago had happened one of the most weird and fantastic tales ever told. The play, one of the first of its kind ever presented in Lyons Township high school auditorium, was so successfully produced that the entire cast was called back for an enthu- siastic curtain call. Especially notable also was the extremely realistic stage set, complete from sheet iron stove to brass cuspidor. The scene was laid in an old railway station, situated at a Way station far from any sign of civili- zation. When his hat blew off, that jovial little Englishman, Teddy Deakin, had pulled the safety cord of the train. The enforced stop causes a group of passengers to miss their connection at the junc- tion. Marooned in this bleak old railway station, the passengers, Peqqy and Charles Murdock who are celebrating their wedding day, Mr. and Mrs. Winthrop, a guarrelsome couple, and Miss Bourne, an old maid, bribe the station agent, Saul Hodgkin, to tell them the mysterious story of the ghost train, which nightly makes its run over this track. Old Saul prepares to leave before the witching hour of midnight comes. Follows a series of events, exactly paralleling the events of the story told by the station agent. The little group is terrified. Comedy is supplied by Miss Bourne, who imbibes too freely of Teddy's brandy. Climaxing the fear of the rest, Miss Iulta Price comes suddenly upon the scene, evidently suffering from ia severe case of hysteria. Two men arrive, Mr. Price and Mr. Sterling, ostensibly relatives of Miss Price. The ghost train roars past the station, Miss Price faints, and suddenly the wise-cracking little Englishman rushes out on the platform and captures Saul Hodgkin. He reveals the identity of the Price family and Mr. Sterling as smugglers. Page 34 HAUNTED STATION The cast was as follows: Saul Hodgkin, Bob l-lixsong lulia Price, Lila Vallancep Mr. Price, George Wrisley, Mr. Sterling, Ralph Pritchard, Mr. Winthrop, Les Bice, Elsie Winthrop, lane Mitchell, Peggy Murdock, Virginia Branumg Charles Murdock, Bob lonesg Teddy Deakin, Kenneth Stevens, Miss Bourne, lean Pierson, lackson, lames Tyson: and the detectives, George Willetts and Louis Netzel. The pictures on page 34 at the top, show lulia Price, who is pretending to taint, anxiously watched by Mr. Price and Mr. Sterling. ln the center are three ot the de- tectives: Teddy Deakin, his assistant, and lackson. At the bottom, old Saul throws a supply oi wood on the tire, while Miss Bourne and Teddy Deakin listen to his story. On this page at the lett are the two newlyweds, Paggy and Charles Murdock, whose honeymoon is having so inctuspicious a beginning. The picture on the right shows Elsie Winthrop and her husband seeking a means ot escape from the tattered old station. The director, Miss Dorothy Critchtield, is to be complimented on such a fine pro- duction. ln appreciation of her work, Leslie Bice, speaking for the cast, presented her with a beautiful arm bouquet ot roses. Page 3 5 'ttf' ww- Xym.. '57 'Ns El Tee Hi in recent years added several courses, which have been Worked out to meet the needs of our students. Among these are studies designed to give some practical knowledge of the con- duct of everyday life. The home manage- 'rspeftal stressipnponsumi i X buying, health, home nursing, and fur- nishing the home. A similar course for boys is the home mechanics course, which gives a Working knowledge of plumbing and electrical appliances. Another very useful course is busi- ness training with correlated arithmetic. ' To the general art course, commercial art and stage cra.tt have been added. In the latter model stages are constructed that the pupil may solve problems of light- ing, costume, and decoration. CU RRHCU LUM The sophomore English course has undergone great change this past year. The course is de signed primarily to give everyone a chance to write and talk about subjects ot vital interest to himself. lt is given on a lecture and individ- ual research basis, and the school has ob- tained many fine speakers to talk to the classes. Electricity, art, music, interior decorating, aviation, drama, astron- omy, business and even landscape gardening are included in the stud- ies Which the students themselves indicated a desire to take up. A personal problems course is helping students to adjust themselves to their sur- roundings and to under- stand the objectives of high school. lt also in- cludes instruction in better citizenship and vocational selection.

Dear Friends of '37- Hearty congratulations--Well deserved! l like to compare the procession of classes in L. T. H. S. to a kaleidoscope of brilliantly colored gems, and each succeeding class a special gem to enhance the Whole effect. And as gems vary-so with classes-'37 is strong in the forum and in the art of oral presentation. lt has set an example and a mark for succeeding classes. May its talent be always used to sustain the good and discourage the bad. You live in wonderful times. That seems like an hackneyed sentiment. lt has probably been said to each generation of graduates. But it is still true, with the addition that the word wonderful has expanded many fold as the- years have passed. The fundamentals of character have not changed through those years. Merit counts, now as then. May you have the will and endur- ance to reach the heights. But don't forget that real life is not self-centered. Cast thy bread upon the Waters is poetic and Do a good turn daily is homely language, but a profound philosophy of happy living is identified with the practice of those simply worded admonitions. You are going to tread many paths. Few of you will stay for long together. But along each path you will be accompanied by the golden thread of the- memory of the happy days in L. T. l-l. S. May that thread always connect you V Page 38, lnset: Dr. Willet, superin- ADMINISTRATION With the old school and perhaps in due time help you to find your Way back for pleasant reunions.

Page 64 BIG SHOTS, DATES, AND SALESWOMEN Three riotous comedies staged by the sophomores, Murder in Reverse , Orville's Big Date , and Thursdays at Home , drew an exceptionally large crowd. Put up your hands , shouts Villain Dean Raymond, the gun toting bad man of Murder in Re- verse Cupper leftl. The nonchalant looking gentleman in the foreground is Iohn Ash- baugh, who is suffering from a case of morning-after-the-night-before. George Quick is the victim of the gun. The photo in the lower left caught Ruth Horlick pointing the accusing finger at the maid, Patsy Cooley, who is the chief suspect in this upside-down murder mystery. Attending the maid are brother Tom Allinson and Constable Dave Paynter. Page 65 Orville's Big Date is shown in the center. Orville CCreorge Simonsl, endures his sisters' gentle f?l touches with frequent disapprovals in preparation for a heavy date. The three feminine stooges are Shirley Abbott, Mar- jorie Daugherty, and Helen Doris. In the upper right is a picture of the housewife's nightmare, Thursdays at Home . Lucretia Hamm is the unfortunate victim of a host of saleswomen. Betty O'Shea, Purdy Wanda Nelson, at the vacuum cleaner, Laura Vial wielding the hair curlers, Eleanor Conrad, holding the encyclopedia, flower girl lean Willett, and Ruth Shulstad, holding the sweeper, compose a large part of her misery. ln the lower right Rosalie Fish consults Ruth Rommel over her successful efforts in ridding the house of the saleswomen.

Since all of the girls can't belong, special girls who are good talkers have been nominated to do the talking. At the meet- ings they talk. They say that to get in Spanish club, you have to have some knowledge of Spanish and yet look Who's president: Busch. Open letter to all freshmen: Playmakers is not an organization which spends the afternoon playing games as you first thought when you saw the name. It is strictly a dramatic club. Who do you think it is that puts on all of the school plays? U-Xnswer: not Playmakersl. Seven hundred and fifty. That is the number of boys from E1 Tee Hi who do not belong to Omega Epsilon Omega which is the girls' honorary society. To all those interested in French club: all you have to do is take French at least 18 weeks, you also have to get a 90 in it the third six weeks, then you have to participate in a program. And then after you get there all they do is talk in a foreign language. Some people think that the Boys' Council corresponds to the Girls' League Senate. Shucks, they at least get something done in the G. L. S., but not so in the B. C. Iohnny Porter does all the talking there. Further information for freshmen: the Girl Reserves is not the feminine branch of the R. O. T. C. It is for girls only. lts purpose is to promote friendliness among the girls and not with them. The L club is a mystery to many students. Before Grimmenga got in, he thought it was a club Where they give you the Works on account of the name. After he was initiated, he knew he had been right. CLUBS ln order to prevent any possible conflict between the art classes and the Science club, we are hereby clearing up the matter by stating that it is not the Science club but the art classes which used to put up the posters and other science around school. This is the story they tell about why Ed Schmidt almost didn't get in the German club: Miss Iordan: Sprechen Sie Deutsch? E. Schmidt: Huh? M. lordan: Sprechen Sie Deutsch? E. Schmidt: What? M. Iordan: l said, Do you speak Ger- man? E. Schmidt: Oh! Sure, sure. lf you notice any girls who are especially skillful in their make-up, chances are that they belong to Teenya 'cause that's where they learn exterior decorating. The Student Council is made up of the Girls' League Senate and the Boys' Council. lncidently the Boys' Council is made up of six smart fellows Ctwelve halt-witsl. The purpose of the Hi-Y is to maintain and extend high standards of Christian Character. The members are pretty loyal to this purpose. At their dance at the Congress Casino they all drank milk. Word has it that two of our more promi- nent seniors spent an evening trying to find where the Freshman-Sophomore Theatre was located. The boys knew that there were a lot of girls in it, but they didn't know that it's a club and not a building. To all students who don't like the way the school looks: Kindly bring yourself and that 70 cents you were going to see the show with to the next meeting of the A. A. K. You aren't so important, but they can use the money in beautifying the school. Stop! Don't read any farther! This just tells that you have to be pretty good to be- long to the G. A. A. Aha! So you read it anyway, you Snooper. 64 Y YLAYMAEFE g:AX5vl Nt I Tl u, lf afitjg ,,l,,,. Z if-:Q f XX Cf 'fp W U 'X .A-U 1' gn rr. t 1 greg ings jtx ff Q-, CT lit' 1 Xe, F X 1 'l T ..

DOLIIICIA The STUDENT COUNCIL is a combination of the GIRLS' LEAGUE and the BOYS' COUNCIL. The Girls' League is an organization which includes all the girls in school. Under the direction of Miss Dorothy Banks, it is gov- erned by two groups: the SENATE and the CONGRESS. This year's Senate officers were: president, Phyllis Friessp secretary, Ianet MacDonald: and treasurer, Iosephine Brotje. The welfare committee was in charge of Louise Sunderman. The chair- man of the social committee was Grace Ouebbeman, whose duties included the freshman mother and daughter tea, the big N Mullen, N. Gelis, G. Ouebloeman, B. A. Iohnson, I. P. Friess, B. A. Richards. M. Busching, G. McOuiston, R. Schustad, I. McRae, T. Cooksey, I. Raymond, I. MacDonald, N. Gelis, S and little sister party, and other social func- tions. Ianice Raymond was chairman of the participation committee, which studies the extent to which all girls take part in various school activities. Betty Ann Mullen had charge of a committee for college guidance and college teas. The friendly committee was in charge of Natalie Gelis. l-ler duties included sending cards and flowers to sick girls. A Senate project, directed by Phyllis Eriess, was the club kitchenette. Several other important Senate projects are the an- nual Bow Day on the first day of spring, and selling candy at games, the proceeds going to help the welfare committee. Page 72 Below: P. Friess, N.

Page 73 The Congress, or representative body, is made up of girls from each gym and physi- ology class, chosen by popular election as representatives. Discussions on social prob- lems were carried back to the classes by the representatives. At Christmas time the League held a re- union tea for all the old members since 1931. The members of the Boys' Council, formed last school year under the direction of Mr. B. E. Gordon, and put into operation this year, represents all the high school boys in special school activities. The officers for the year were lohn Porter, president, and Robert Hixson, secretary-treasurer, who were ably assisted by Tony Monti, Kenneth Stephens, Tom Allison, William Moody, Edward Schmidt, William Lynn, Iohn Goodyear, Clarence Busch, Archie Sarkisaw, and Richard Telander. The Student Council is largely responsible for the success of the Homecoming in the fall. The Council appointed different com- mittees for carrying out special assignments such as taking care of the bonfire, or lead- ing the parade to the theater, or putting up posters and seeing that the Homecoming was advertised in general. Furthermore the Council was responsible for the fine parade the morning before Homecoming game. Hobo Day was one of the biggest and best in El Tee's eventful life because of the Work done by the Council. A precedent has been set up by the Coun- cil in the dance sponsored by it after the Downers Grove basketball game. This was the first night dance at the school after a basketball game, and it was a big success. The dance was held in the community room and in the foyer of the auditorium. The charge was ten cents, and the Downers Grove students were admitted free as guests of the school. ECCTUCMTS Three major productions and monthly meet- ings which included a make-up demonstra- tion, a Christmas party, individual monologues, and a spring fashion show put on by the sophomores, gave a large group of freshman and sophomore thespians a chance to develop their talents. All the intricacies of stage pro- duction, from lighting effects to the proper use of lip stick, Were subjects of investigation in the course of which the members of FRESH- MAN SOPHOMORE THEATRE could work with grease paint and costumes to their heart's con- tent. Sponsored by Miss Lois Springer, Freshman- Sophomore Theatre head as officers, Lucretia Hamm, president: Peggy O'Shea, vice-presi- dent: Barbara Stenger, secretary: and Margaret Coffey, treasurer. One of the first plays put on by the members was the Sentimental Scarecrow , presented at the freshman tea.

Fl GMT Scholastic headliners have found pleasure in each other's society, and inspiration in contemplation of What clever Women have accomplished. The theme for O. E. O. this year Was famous Women and their Work. At the first meeting, Mrs. Klose presented a lecture on music and gave several piano selections. At a later meeting Hope Branum, who has been in several skits on the radio, gave a talk on Women and radio. ln Decem- ber a Christmas party was held, which in- cluded a grab-bag and carol singing. Early in the year Betty Ann Mullen gave several readings from Cornelia Otis Skinner's book, Excuse lt Pleaselu A talk on Women mis- sionaries given by Ruth Hauser, who has lived in Peru, Was much enjoyed. Omega Epsilon Omega, meaning the chosen few, is sponsored by Miss Gladys Gilliland. lt is an organization of girls who have made the honor roll at least twice every semester. The officers for the past year were president Lois Millerp vice-presi- dent, Hope Branump secretary, Betty Klosep treasurers, Alice Reed, and Patricia Cosley. ln February forty-five freshmen were initi- ated into O. E. O. Cpicture belowl in an im- pressive candle light ceremony. After they Were pledged they received a badge sym- bolic of the four points, scholarship, leader- ship, service, and character. The O. E. O. project for the year was to tutor girls who Wanted help. The plan worked out to the satisfaction of both the student teachers and their pupils, and it is hoped, will become a permanent part of O. E. O. service to the school.

Playmakers, which is the dramatic club for upperclassmen, is headed this year by lane Mitchell as president and Constance Schwarzkopf as secretary-treasurer, with Miss Critchfield as sponsor. At a regular meeting with junior college students as guests, the club was entertained by Mr. Iohn Beck, a professional reader. In his humorous style he gave his interpreta- tions of a concert piece, a tulip festival, a night watchman, and an Hungarian harpist. ATHENS lane Mitchell, Lila Vallance, Constance Schwarzkopt, and Robert I-lixson constituted the cast ot characters oi the play He Said She Said, which was presented for the club's own enjoyment at the lanuary meet- ing. When the curtain had fallen, Nancy Breen, Shirley Porter, lean Pierson, and Leslie Rice ot the audience were asked to come up to the stage to give impromptu in- terpretations of the play. Afterwards, Miss Charlotte Bette of Northwestern university criticized the original players. The club was very fortunate in having for one of its speakers Mrs. Harriet Widmer, of radio fame. Mrs. Widmer specializes in dialects and characterizations. Her fluency with negro dialect is so natural that Amos and Andy used her as the girl when they introduced the extra character on their radio skit. Several members of the club had ques- tions about radio work which were answered by Mrs. Widmer.

AVQTNSTS The best assembly of the year! That was the distinction given the A.A.K. assembly of 1936 by a popular Vote of the students of L. T. H. S. With a precedent such as this before them, the members of A.A. K. set to work to make the A. A. K. assembly of 1937 as good as or better than that of the year before. And if a similar vote were to be taken the All Arts Klub assembly would undoubtedly again receive top honors. The backbone of the club for the past year came from Betty Ann Iohnson, president: Dorothy Wittman, vice-president: Victor Corporan, second vice-president: Iosephine Brotje, secretary: David Nightingale, treas- urerg and Mrs. Murphey, sponsor. Special mention should be given to Betty Ann Iohnson who designed the elaborate scenery for the production and to Mrs. Murphey who supervised the entire program. The ever willing stage crew was on hand as usual to put up the scenery. The stage crew deserves much credit for its efficient work. Every stage production at L. T. H. S. is handled from the scenery and effects angle by the stage crew under the direction of Mrs. Murphey. The stage crew is composed of the follow- ing: Harry Peterson, Betty Ann Iohnson, loy Dawson, lohn Hockenbery, Robert Kurth, David Wilson, George Pierce, Robert Voss, Gertrude Wilbur, and Dave Nightingale. At one of the first meetings of the year, the club visited the Art institute and the Van Gogh exhibit. At a later date, murals painted in the Oak Park schools by the W. P. A. were viewed by the club. Another memorable occasion sponsored by the A.A.K. was its colorful after-school dance with Ken Webber's orchestra furnish- ing the music. The year's program was topped off with the annual trip to Starved Rock.

Dig WEINACMTSZQT The land of Christmas trees, of Santa Claus, of strolling bands, and of apple strudel, the Germany of song and story is the concern of DIE DEUTSCHEN LOEWEN. fGerman Lions to youl. Miss Emerson showed slides of German comic boys at one meeting. As the slides went along she translated the jokes on them for the club members. For another program Betty Schumann gave a talk on the opera Tannhauser and Frank Langdon played the main pieces from that opera on the piano. At some ot the meetings, German games were played and at almost every meeting German food was served for refreshments. One good old German dish which was not overlooked was the old favorite, spare-ribs and sauerkraut. The German club mem- bers are evidently fond ot eating, for they are planning a picnic which they hope to hold at Starved Rock. Since people who have been to Germany always have interesting material for the club, Miss Critchtield, who was abroad last summer, talked on German drama. Club members showed lantern slides of cities along the Rhine and then gave talks on each one of them. As students like to sing songs of the language which they are studying, an especially enjoyable program was the one at which the club members did some effective close harmonizing of Du, Du, Liegst Mir Am Herzen and the like. For their Christmas program the club gave a Christmas pageant. ln the above picture the back row: Irene Robb, Mary lane Harris, Luela Sangdahl, Robert Kemman, Virginia Koch, Eleanor Conrad, Iohn Lutz, Dorothy Wittman. ln the front row are Warren An- derson, Hugh Redhead, and Roxie Sarkisaw. Roxie has the part of Mary. The Christmas tree which the club had at this meeting stood in a revolving stand that played German songs as it turned. German dancing is being considered for a future program. ln the election of the German club officers, Whitman Bartley was chosen president: Irma Haynes, vice-president: Iosephine Brotje, secretary: and Nathelie Gelis, treas- urer. The club, which is sponsored by Miss Emerson, is open to all students talking German. Page 78 FASMKDN NCTES Charm, style, personality, how to be a gracious hostess-any girl is glad to learn these things, and TEENYA is a special club whose purpose is to present programs on subjects which primarily interest girls. Newly organized this year, Teenya was sponsored by Miss Alice Thomsen and had as its officers: president, Cherry Smith, vice- president, Ruth Hieronymusp secretary, Betty Miller: and treasurer, Mary Ann Kohlstrom. A great variety of programs was offered, each drawing a large turnout from the club's membership of over one hundred. The first meeting of the year, held in September, was in the form of a fashion show. Sponsored by Marshall Field's, Who furnished all the costumes and accessories, the show was a huge success. Twelve of the club members acted as the models, and Mrs. Ashby, sent out by Field's, talked on Planning a Ward- robe, giving many helpful hints for choos- ing a winter wardrobe. At the November meeting, Teenya pre- sented Miss Doris Lee Leeds, who gave a talk on Beauty and Grooming . This in- cluded a make-up demonstration on oval and round faces. Miss Blanche Gardiner of Green Shutters spoke on refreshments for entertainment at the December meeting. She left many reci- pes and ideas for entertaining with the girls. Etiquette and its history, charm and per- sonal appearance, table manners and table setting, and the proper ways to make intro- ductions were fully discussed by Miss Helen Bartlett, etiquette editor for the Chicago Tribune. A Featured at the March meeting was a trip to Washington on the Capitol Limited pre- sented by Mrs. William K. Brown, who is connected with the Baltimore and Ohio Bail- road. Many interesting pictures of Mount Vernon, and Washington were shown. In April Miss Rhea Siegar, who is the fashion editor of the Chicago Tribune, spoke on clothes, giving many hints about the latest styles, colors, and materials for spring. A big project of Teenya was to secure the speaker for the girls assembly which took place in May. Miss Fannie M. Brooks, Health Education Specialist from the Univer- sity of Illinois, spoke on developing person- ality through hygiene.

LES ELEVES The trials and tribulations of the parents of a young cinema star were revealed in a play given at the first meeting of the FRENCH CLUB. The cast of the play included ttop picture, left to right? Ralph Pritchard, as the father, Dorothy Lietch, as the maidy Kenneth Stevens, as the enfant terrible , Gertrude Wilbur, as the mother, Norman Bond. The serious part of the meeting concerned the election of the officers with the following re- sults: lames Tyson, president, Ruth Towell, vice-presidentp Robert Iones, treasurer, and Mary Martha Niernann, secretary. French games were played at the next meeting which was in charge of Nancy Breen. All talking and writing done in the process of playing these games had to be done in French. Majeur Beau and his gong paid a visit to the French club at the next meeting, an amateur hour. Included on the program was a saxaphone solo, a violin solo, a vocal trio, a tap dance, and a chalk talk fRuth Towell, lower rightl. La Surprise d'Henri was the name of the play presented by lames Tyson, Suzanne Conrad, lane Davies, Sylvia Wood, and Henry Madsen at the December meeting. The first meeting of the second semester was devoted to the initiation of the first year French students into the club. The program was given by the incoming members coached by these six old members: Florence Wilson, Virginia Parkes, Katherine lohnson, Betty Ann Mullen, Lois Miller, and Mary lune Woods. Two of the new members, Sally Fulkman and Hazel Nordin, illustrate a scene from their play in the lower left picture. The concluding program of the year was accompanied by a gala feast. Page 80 LA DHWATA Miss Wakefield is the fortunate possessor of recollections of a trip to Mexico. She knows how good the new Laredo to Mexico City highway is. With a knowledge of such things as these, it is no wonder that she proved to be an interesting speaker for the SPANISH CLUB at one of its first meetings. The question of who should head the Spanish club for the year '36-'37 was given this answer at the first meeting: Clarence Busch, president, Louise Whistman, vice- presidentg lanice Raymond, secretary: Frances Finch, treasurer: lean Crist, chair- man of refreshments: and Marjorie Bauers, chairman of program. El Nacimientou was the name of the Christmas play, directed by Miss Sizer and presented by the following members: lean Crist, Carol Bergstrand, Laura Maus, Doris Ogle, PeqQY Nash, Louise Whistman, Betty Wallace, Alice Kelly, Louise Roberts, Robert Dana, Robert Brown, Harold Hohl, Lois Clark, Marjorie Bauers, and Allan Phillips.

At the meeting held at lanice Raymond's home, the club decided to admit all first year students who had earned a 90 in Spanish. Before playing some Spanish games, the club was entertained by May Whitford, Bill Averitt, and Iohn Dewey who presented a play called El Criato Astulo . The incoming members were initiated in March at the home of Marjorie Bauers. Herb Kent completed the entertainment with a vocal selection. Page 81 i r 4-rf - -' Top row: M. Castro Leon, C.

FVQUQNDLINESS Personality development, choosing a voca- tion, social service and welfare work as serious interests of the average girl or wo- man are among the subjects ot considera- tion for the GIRL RESERVES. This organiza- tion which has as its purpose, the promotion of friendships, and the discussion of any topic which interests girls in general. Spon- sored by Miss Dorothy Banks, Miss Lula B. Thompson, and Miss Dorothy Sizer, Girl Re- serves Was led this year by the following officers: president, lanice Raymond, vice- president, Leslie Smith, secretary, Dorothy Owen, and treasurer, Ianet MacDonald. To promote cooperation among the mem- bers, the club was divided into six triangles, under the leadership of lane Babcock, Doris Miller, Betty Lee Ellis, Ruth Blackmore, Eleanor Kissler, and Betty Miller. Early in the year, a series of meetings was presented on personality growth. Discus- sions on this topic were led by Leslie Smith and Lillian Williams. Later Miss Prater, principal of the Cossitt school, gave a talk on Personality Development. At one meet- ing a personality test was given and the answers proved very interesting. ln lanu- ary, Hi-Y entertained Girl Reserves at a joint meeting. Mr. Putnam was the speaker and presented a talk on Choosing a Life Voca- tion. In April, Girl Reserves returned this meeting and entertained Hi-Y with Miss Aucutt as the guest speaker. Her subject was Movies. Another series of interesting meetings was held on people of other countries, with Miss Miriam Lewis and Mr. Greet as speakers. Girl Reserves held a tea for their mothers, with Mrs. Arthur Hauser, Metropolitan Girl Reserve chairman speaking. Page 82 SCIENCE What club had the most rapid growth at L. T, H. S. in 1936-1937? The SCIENCE and MATHE- MATICS CLUB which be- gan its existence in De- cember. To Lawrence Starkey and Henry Hoek- serna goes the credit for the formation of this new club. lt took a good deal of hard work to get a club of this sort going, and most of this work was done by these two boys. The club is also greatly indebted to Mr. Hays, who served as sponsor. At the first meeting a committee of five was appointed to draw up the by-laws so that the club could get officially started and also have some foundation. At the next meeting the charter members of the club voted on the by-laws, section by section, until, after a few changes, they were accepted. The officers were then elected with the following results: Stephen Plasman, presi- dent: Kenneth Stevens, vice-president: and Henry Hoeksema, secretary. A standing program committee was then chosen and its members were: Lawrence Starkey, William O'Shea, Keith McLane, Iames Tyson, and Arthur Witt. At an early meeting Mr. Sweeney gave a short history on the field of radio, which was followed by a demonstration by Charles Curtis, in which he picked up stations on the different wave bands. He succeeded in getting several foreign stations, police calls, Page 83 ships at sea, airplanes, and also tuned in on a few hams with mikes. One of the most interesting meetings of the club was the special trip through the Electro-Motive corporation plant. Three guides were assigned to the club in order that every one might have a chance to see and hear everything. The entire plant was gone over and explained, thereby providing one of the most instructive of afternoons. Still another interesting and educational trip was that taken through the Sears and Roebuck Testing Laboratories. The mem- bers were shown how the different articles of merchandise were tested physically, chemically, mechanically, and electrically. Mr. Walter Payne spoke at one meeting, telling of his war experiences. Mr. Davis was speaking to the club on biology when the top photograph was taken. The lower one shows Keith McLane and Henry Hoek- sema giving some demonstrations. DEQGN FCE UWNG L Something new in Hi-Y's was started by the officers of the La Grange HI-Y CLUB this last year. The club put out a complete printed schedule of the programs for the year early in October. lt was reported that Hi-Y clubs throughout Illinois had heard of the idea, and that it had made a big hit with them. The officers responsible for this new sys- tem were: George Wrisley, president: Leslie Rice, vice-president: Ralph Pritchard, secre- tary, Stephen Plasman, treasurer: and Arthur l-luislcen, chaplain. The club started off the year with an invitational pot-luck supper for new mem- bers. After two more meetings, which enabled candidates to learn how the Hi-Y functions, the club held induction ceremonies for those wishing to join. Later in the year, the club invited the first string teams of both the heavies and lights to a football banquet in their honor. Probably the most important dates of the year for the club were December 4, 5, and 6. On those days some twenty of the club members attended the state Older Boys' con- ference in Danville, Illinois, with about five hundred other boys from Hi-Y clubs through- out the state. An interesting feature of the conference was that Les Rice from La Grange was the president and led the conference for those three days. Shown in the top picture is Mr. l-lays ad- dressing the club while the newly elected officers Cleft to rightl Robert Salveson, Ed Ford, Don Williamson, George Simons, and Herb Hart look on. ln the Hi-Y assembly picture, lower right row, are Woodbury, Hixson, Thompson, Knief, Vallance, and Ricey second row, Hanson, Pritchard, and Rotoloy top, Reed.

Pauline Foster, Elaine Thornton, and lean Markl tupper left picturel executed several tap dances, and Frances Wright, Vivian Iohnson, lzola Frizby, and Mar- jorie Iohnson flower leftl sang several negro spirituals, under the direction of lzola Frizby.

Dancing was held afterward in the girls' gymnasium, and delicious punch and cake were served in the cafeteria. Page 85 LETS QQ NATWE African bushmen hobnobbed with Dia- mond Lils. The Gay Nineties danced with the Spirit of 1987. Probably one of the most outstanding features oi this year's HOBO DAY, November 27, Was the great percent- age oi students in costume. And, of course, the spirit of the day was accented even more by the large number of teachers who came to school in foolish costumes. The itinerant parade was the big feature oi the morning, when young and old Cmeaning stu- dents and teachersl forgot their dignity and paraded around the gym in their unnatural costumes. The amateur hour also was a big event and drew a capacity crowd. Quite a num- ber oi aspirants tried their hand at enter- taining an auditorium tull of bums in hopes oi Winning judges' approval. The climax ot the day Was the dance in the girls' gym, which was a very colorful and picturesque attair to watch.

MUSIC lt isn't by accident that L. T. H. S. has a good music department year after year. Good musicians are a prerequisite, of course, but even having capable players is not all a matter of luck. lt isn't in vain that Mr. Dissinger has two beginners' classes: one for brass and wind instruments and the other for string possibilities. When they join these classes in their first or sec- ond year, often these beginners develop into real musical assets to the school. What is the result, once capable groups are obtained? For one thing, the orchestra and glee club are usually picked to repre- sent La Grange in exchange assemblies with other schools. One need only hear some of the receptions other schools give these programs to understand the popular- ity of such an assembly. Of course, having heard the peppy work of the band at foot- ball games, it is easy to see what a snappy program of On Wisconsin or Illinois Loyalty can do to the spirit of a crowd. But the best evidence in defense of the music groups is the annual operetta. We are willing to match last spring's Tune ln, for example, with a similar work of any high school anywhere. lt's a good reputation that Mr. Dissinger'sS groups have gained for El Tee l-li. The work in the past year has maintained that , high standard. N TUNE IN Left pictur-ez Mr. Throckmorton waits patiently for Mr. Phipps, Bob, and Dave.

The studio audience Watching the broadcast of station WTNT the night of March 2, in the high school auditorium indicated enthusiastic approval of the musical comedy Tune ln, presented by the orchestra and glee clubs and directed by Mr. Dissinger. The production also was a big finan- cial success. There was a maximum of good singing in the show. Mary Martha Niemann as Mitzi did very well, as did Mary Iames in the role of the eccen- tric Mrs. Kroggins. The three sisters, Tilly, Milly, and Billy CBetty Ann Mullen, Ruth Bufulo, Shirley Porter? sang some fine vocal trios and the trio of Bob Austin, Bob King, and Herb Kent, three of the four leading men, performed in a style com- parable to masculine Boswells. lane Cushing and Herb Landes also sang an excellent duet. Several interesting dances were presented. The humor of the show was excellent and the work of the chorus and pit orchestra also was com- mendable. T Included on the production staff for the show were Mrs. Murphey, stage and lighting, Miss Wakefield, Miss Thompson, and Bernice Croak, dancing: Miss Maude Geary, assistant in dra- matics: Miss Thomsen, costumes: Mr. Payne and Norman Ulrich, advertising: make-up, Miss Critch- field. The plot of the operetta was laid around the radio station WTNT. Ioe Brown, the new owner, must obtain a program sponsored by Kasper Kroggins, head of the Kroggins Kippered Kodfish Co. or lose his station to Mr. Lysander Phipps the former owner to whom Ioe owes money. Mr. Kroggins has a domineering wife with lofty Vocal aspirations, who decides to sing on her husband's radio program. The complications ensuing in an effort to keep her off the air furnish the basis for some hilarious comedy. An English gentlemen named Mr. Archibald Throckmorton, finally gets an opportunity to tell Ioe he has inherited ten million dollars and also the patent for the kippering process. The two couples, Ioe and lean, Terry and Mitzi, are re- united, and Mrs. Kroggins has a change of mind about her singing ability as the curtain falls on a happy ending.

S. band, it was not lacking in ability. The personnel numbered thirty-six musicians. The one invaluable service the band has rendered the school for many years is its peppy march music to warm up a chilly Saturday afternoon between halves of the football games in Emmond field. The band also formed military letter formations on the field. A wet day prevented the lads from showing their stuff for the Home- coming Day game, against Wheaton. The band also played for the school assembly of the music department, for the Christmas concert, for the dedica- tion of the new La Grange post office, and for the annual spring concert. Mr. Dissinger also said that doubtless, as in past years, the band would play for the annual Memorial Day parade, and the annual La Grange Music Festival in Iune. Top, standing: I. Bartholmew, W.

Page 92 WEVE CCT VQMYIMM Mr. Dissinger has never failed to produce a symphony orchestra of which L. T. H. S. could be proud. The fifty members of this year's organization were an excep- tional group. Its first public appearance was the Christmas concert on December 15. lt played for a school assembly the following Friday. About thirty-five members of the orchestra played as the pit orchestra for this year's operetta, Tune ln. The orchestra played at two exchange assemblies at other schools in the West Suburban conference. Iust before spring vacation the group Went to Riverside high school with the glee club. Perhaps a more popular assembly was given at Maine high school the week following spring vacation.

The band, orchestra, and glee clubs, all led by Mr. Dissinger, gave their Christmas concert that evening. The band opened the program with three selections, two marches and the overture to the popular Barber of Seville by Rossini. The orchestra played the overture to Der Freischutz by Weber, selections from the Christmas favorite, Nutcracker Suite by Tschaikowsky, and the lively Al Fresco-Intermezzo by Herbert. From the girls' glee club came The Frost Elves by Berwald, Ciribiribin by Pestalozza, and The Woman in the Shoe by Brown. The boys group sang Dedication by Franz, Dance My Comrades -a stirring Russian Folk Tune, and the beautiful song, When Day is Done, by Kotscher. The mixed chorus rendered Once on a Night in Bethlehem by Strickland, The Virgin's Lullaby by Salter, and Now the Holy Child is Born, an old French carol.

Coach Deabler is standing. SKULL DVQACWCE Champions of the West Suburban Conference! That is the most important accom- plishment in the most extensive debate season L. T. H. S. has ever had. Losing only one out of six debates, on the negative to Maine, the local arguers nosed out Maine who won four out of six contests. Downers Grove was third, followed by Hinsdale bringing up the rear. A hundred and five debates is a lot of arguing. lt took sixteen debaters to amass this total against about thirty different schools. The varsity squad showed up strong in every tournament they entered. When they were still a green, inexperienced bunch of dubs they pulled out a tie for fifth among thirty-four teams in the Wheaton tournament in Ianuary. At the Mooseheart tournament in February the team breezed through without a defeat, taking first place. At the Illinois tournament of the National Forensic league in Lincoln, in March, they tied for fourth, a fine showing. The squad went through the eighth round. Next came the elimination tournaments of the Illinois State High School Speech league. The locals came through the sub-district with a tie for second, but in the district they were eliminated after winning half of their contests. ln all the tournaments there were two speaker teams, Les Rice and Betty Klose for the negative, and Bob Salvesen and Evert Bartholomew on the affirmative. On the three speaker conference teams the four people named above were aided by either Tom Overmier or Ruard Vanderploeg, negative, and lim Tyson or Ruth Mary Man- gold, affirmative. Mr. Deabler, for the eighth year, coached the school's debating. Page 96 DVQABTY DVQAMA This year the squad was selected in an interesting way. A pre-season tournament was held in the school. Twenty-seven people entered, and the varsity squad was selected from these. The question debated all year was: Resolved: that all electric utilities should be governmentally owned and operated. Betty Klose obtained the highest of the four ranks in the National Forensic league. Debating her second year, she reached the rank of Special Distinction. Betty is also president of the La Grange chapter of N. F. L., Bob Salvesen, Everet Bartholomew, Les Bice, Ruth Mary Mangold, Tom Over- mier, and lim Tyson, all reached the third N. F. L. rank, Bank of Excellence. La Grange was host to a pre-season con- ference get-to-gether and a post-season ban- quet. At the former a practice debate be- tween the University of Chicago and Loyola was heard. At the latter La Grange was given their cup. Below, top row: Les Rice is not always as good natured and as calm in debates as we see him below. He captained the negative team. Meet Bob Salvesen, as fiery a debater as ever filed a box of reference cards. A junior, he argued on the affirmative side. By the time Betty Klose finishes her third year as a varsity debater next year, she will probably have represented L. T. H. S. in more debates than any other one person. lt looks like Ruth Mary Mangold is de- scribing the big fish that got away instead of telling the benefits of governmental owner- ship of electric utilities. Bottom row: Figures in black and white won many debates for the negative team. Tom Overmier points out the significance of a few. There are four reasons why merely gov- ernmental regulation is not sufficient, Evert Bartholomew seems to be pointing out em- phatically. lim Tyson is trying to point out that de- finitly the only possible solution to this ques- tion is that which the affirmative proposes. That ought to have convinced the judges, thinks Ruard Vanderploeg as he finishes the evidence on one card. Buard argued no. FAQ NTC TME MGMT With Balph Pritchard elected as editor-in-chief by the senior class, and Dean Thompson and Margaret Minich as his associates, Miss Daugherty was sure before work had started that the El Tee Hi TABULAE of 1937 would keep up the extraordi- nary reputation of TABS in past years. This book, it is hoped, is proof of that fact. To help them in their work, the above four chose on their editorial staff the following: Kenneth Stevens for mixed organizations and boys' organizations, Flor- ence Wilson, girls' athletics and girls' organizations, Evert Bartholomew, debate, publications, and music, lim Woodbury, dramaticsp Cashman Lafferty, boys' ath- letics. Dean also had boys' athletics and faculty: Margaret-school life and a number of the division pages. The entire staff wrote the senior write-ups, Editor Ralph wrote the opening sections, and, of course, the editor and his two associates laid out the dummy and edited the copy as well as supervising everything else. Marvin Kiehl was business manager of this TABULAE, and his two assistants were lim Tyson and Bill O'Shea. Miss Thomsen was faculty adviser for the business and financial work. Special mention should also be given Mr. Hinchliffe, the photog- rapher for the TAB since 1929. He has continually cooperated in such a manner as to make him a rare and valu- able man for this work. For the first time in five years, the TAB has extensive color and art work. Gertrude Wilbur and Ruth Towell are the two talented artists who made this possible. Other changes which the staff believes make for a better and more original TABULAE are the changes in senior write-ups, giv- ing every senior nine lines of type. The individual pictures of the lower three classes, used for the first time last year, have been enlarged in this book. The school life section, obtained by an exten- sive campaign of picture taking, should be especially popular with the student body.

A brighter, handsorner LION was read by the L. T. H. S. student body this year. Several physical changes made it the best looking paper since it was changed from a printed to a mimeographed publication in the fall of 1933. The reading matter also was of a high quality, and for the first time in several years, enough pupils took journalism to necessitate two classes. Outstanding among the improvements on THE LION were the stenciled head- lines lettered every week by Marvin Kiehl and Dante Ventresca. The use of column rules and straight right hand columns also greatly improved the paper's appear- ance. A slip sheeting machine has made it possible to do a cleaner job of mimeo- graphing. The two journalism classes alternated each week in publishing THE LION. Each class had a separate staff. Miss Daugherty taught both classes and was faculty adviser for the paper. The staff for the first period class was as follows: H. Sadler, editor-in-chief: Warren Anderson and Henry Madsen, associate editors: Betty Ann Richards, club editor: Mary Iames, feature editor: Marvin Kiehl, sports editor: Barbara Burns and Reva Richmond, copy editors. For the last period class the editors were: Dante Ventresca, editor-in-chief: lane Herzog and Wesley Madsen, associate editors: joseph lngraharn, sports editor: Georgia Paschke, club editor: Hope Branum, feature editor: Elsie Wetter and Gloria Risley, copy editors. Wally Burandt, a sophomore, again this year drew weekly cartoons for page one. Wally not only draws well, but embodies real thought in his work. THE LION finished its twenty-seventh year as the school organ of Lyons Town- ship high school. It has been a weekly paper since 1924. Prior to that it came out monthly.

For the last five years, TABULAES have received All-American rat- ing in the National Scholastic Press Association. Last year's TAB received the additional honor of Pace-Maker. This distinction, which is not given every year, was awarded to only ten high school annuals throughout the country. This is the thirtieth vol- ume of the TAB. - lahn and Ollier Co. were the engravers of this book, S. K. Smith Co. CMolloyl made the cover, and the printers were the Economy Advertising Co. of lowa City. All of these companies have done this work for previous TABS. Besides putting out The Lion every Thurs- day, the journalism classes learn all forms of newspaper articlesg news stories, feature stories, editorials, various reviews, etc. Headlines are also studied. Studying the production of a metropolitan newspaper is one of the most popular features of the course. The best liked issue of The Lion, by both the readers and writers, was prob- ably the burlesque issue on Hobo Day in the fall. Among the popular columns each week was the gossip column, Walter Snitchallf' Page lUO STACL Ll l LCTS C Winning the district meet of the Illinois High School Speech league in Evanston this spring Was the accomplishment of one of the finest groups of public speakers and readers the school has ever produced. George Wris- ley's declamation also took second place in the state meet and entitled him to enter the national contest at Iacksonville, Illinois. The group included Les Rice, extempora- neous speaking, Virginia Branum, reading of poetry, George Wrisley, oration: lack Campbell, reading of humorous verse, and Lila Vallance, dramatic reading. Of these, the last four went to Urbana to take part in the state meet at Urbana, where Virginia and George, in competition with first and second place winners of the five other dis- tricts, took a third and second place respec- tively. Virginia read from Edna St. Vincent Mil- lay's Harp Weavers , and George gave the declamation, Youth Speaks . Gaining a second place in the state meet at Urbana qualified George to enter the na- tional contest at Iacksonville, lllinois.

Starting from scratch, he turned out a team which has be- come famous for its snappy passing and fast clicking teamwork. The opening play of the conference season set off the fuse to a string of easy upsets with the La Grange quintet always on the top of the heap. Hinsdale, Maine, Glen- bard, and Downers Grove, were the hardies who fell in the line of fire. Some say the team became drunk on the wines of victory, but that is optional. How- ever, a mid season slump swept down upon the cagers. When the cloud lifted, the score- board could be seen with two defeats chalked up against the heavies.

Once more, gathering in the ruins of his team, Coach Martin led his gang to six more straight victories, almost as decisive as the earlier contests. York, before their second game with the Lions, was highly confident, being the only undefeated conference team. York, after the Lion onslaught, was a broken and defeated set of cagers, no longer invin- cible. The conference race was a close duel between York and La Grange all the way through. Both teams started out strong, set- ting so fast a pace that the other contenders were virtually caught asleep at the gun. York had a good lead in the backstretch, but the local pride came up and breasted the tape only a step behind the victor. The final score was, York, eleven won and one lost, La Grange, ten won and two lost. ,. I HW!! LIGHTWEIGHTS. Top row: Payne, Krein, Lee, Coach Sedgwick, Mgr. Witt, Probst, Puffer, Burrus.

LIONS AND CUBS When the district tournament came around, Hinsdale always a strong tourna- ment team, was outscored in the first game. However, the tables were turned in the next game and the heavies lost a 43-49 decision to York. Captain Bill Moody was one of the best guards in the conference and for his bril- liant playing was awarded a berth on the all-conference first team. Bill will long be remembered for his accurate passing and infallible hook shots. Len Middleton, first team all-conference center, was outstanding because he played more quarters than any other player. Len controlled the center jump and backboard rebounds. Kenny Lange was always a dangerous man around the basket. l-le was one of the high scorers and rated second team all- conference forward. lohn Goodyear also made all-conference ratings. He is only a junior and will see plenty of action next year. One of the most reliable players on the team was Bob Hixson. His position at guard formed a bulwark of defense. This year marked the beginning of Bill Tamm's basketball career. His cool playing helped the team out of many a hole. Little Iohnny Porter was undoubtedly the scrappiest player on the team. At forward position he could match his skill with the best. ' Bill Weaver, center, Bob Trost, guard, and Bob Witmer, forward, and Bob Reed, center, complete the list of lettermen. Archie Sarki- saw also did his part to keep the team on top.

However, this yecrr found the ponies in ct tie tor third conference position with cr victory over York to their credit. This wcts the only conference upset experienced by the York chctrnpionship lights. The iincrl count found the ponies with seven conference wins to their credit crnd only tive gomes lost.

Cooch Sedgewick considers the secrson CI success becguse oi the fine showing of the lights in their lost conference ggme. This wors the gctme in which York was deiecrted. The Lions plgyed superb bcrll through the entire gcrme crnd simply outplcryed their opponents. ln the lost three gcrmes of the sectson Coctch Sedgewick presented g revdmped lineup to the bgsketbcrll tons. Hooker wds token from the center position ond pldced gs gucrrd in order to better control the bctckbodrd rebounds. Thompson wds put in the center spot cmd did ct iine job ds the results hctve shown. The other ployers remcrined dt their respective posts. Captain Dean Thompson was always good for two points whenever he was in sight of the basket. His cripples were timed perfectly, and he was able to pass himself out of any tight spot. First all- conference forward was the distinction his playing won him. Long, lanky, George Hooker lent color to every game with his flaming red hair and temperament to match. His long reach controlled the center jump as well as the backboard rebounds. Our speed demon Pritchard led the opposing lads a merry chase in his caper- ings about the floor. His speed and skill in ball handling put him on third team all- conference. A Iohnny Mehagen, always a shifty ball handler, was also a dead eye on long shots. Along with Pritchard he found a berth on the all conference third team. A sophomore with a lot of fight well de- fines Don Egbert. A scrappier pair than he and Hooker could not be found in the whole conference. Rollicking Chuck Puffer was the sguad's funster as well as star center. For crazy shots and ludicrous pranks, there was never an equal. Upper row: Pritchard, Dolan Center: Porter Middle row: Reed, Weaver Lower row: Goodyear, Middleton Page 114 Another sophomore who gained a regular berth with the ponies was Paul Roberts. He was a dribbling demon and no beginner when it came to shooting. Ralph Lee, one of the team's defensive mainstays, played a fine brand of basket- ball all year. He'll be back next season. We can't forget the way Dan Dolan knocked the ball away from the opposing players and got away with it. He'll be up to his old pranks for still another season on next year's lights. ' Freshman Pete Molthop was not so green when it came to basketball. He made the regulars work plenty hard for their positions. Krein, Burrus and Probst deserve credit for their playing on the sub teams. lohnny Butkovich and his troup of bucketeers took away high honors in the intra- mural basketball tournament. The eleven other teams competing were captained by Munger, Kralovec, Bossing, Cook, Giles, Willer, Barnes, Portner, Meade, Leonard, and Forslund. Players on the winning team were Butkovich, Wenz, Starkovich, Winslow, Portner, Brown, and Smith. Kralovec's team finished second in the final playoff. HOOPS, MY DEAR Lower left: Lee, Widmer.

This time it was the freshman team that showed their more experienced upper classmen how to finish up in the money. With seven games won and three lost the frosh walked away with second place. In the final league stand- ings they were topped only by Glenbard. The sophomores reversed the score of the freshman cagers, which gave them three won and seven lost. Less fortunate than the younger team the sophs came away with fifth place in their division. Captained by Pete Molthrop of lightweight fame, the frosh played a fine brand of ball all season. The only three games lost were dropped to Glenbard, two, and Downers. Tom Allinson was captain of the sophs. High scoring honors in the sophomore division went to Probst while Steimac led his team of freshmen. Sophomore letter winners were Captain Allinson, Probst, Burrus, Karger, Bunt, Burge and Diver. Molthrop, Steimac, Sabin, Wrisley, Ault, Burditt, and Bain won their freshman letters. Q league moulds younger fellows into experienced players to fill in the vacancies left by upperclassmen on the varsity squads. Already Probst, Molthrop, and Burrus have seen action on the lightweights. Of the stars on this year's varsity teams, Mehagan, Roberts, Thompson, Moody, Middleton. Goodyear, and many others are former Q leaguers. Q LEAGUE. Sophs ftopl top row: Burdick, Packer, Raymond, Coach Warkow, Webber, Meyer, Probst.

They beat the faculty in the annual basketball game! lt was the first time in years, This phenomenal contest brought into the limelight many great basketball stars. All State Paskavon, Cookie Kre- winski, Porky Rice, Playboy Wrisley, Sonny Ramm, Romeo Grirnmenga, and Rube Lafferty were discovered on the winning team with 'Wagon Wheels Sedgwick, Streaky Sweeny, All Star Martin, All School Chambers, Tarzan Towell, and lron Man Gordon playing opposite.

An annual banquet is held at the end of every school year, at which new officers are elected and plans are laid for the fol- lowing year. One of the best liked and most inter- esting assemblies ofthe year is the annual L club athletic program with famous college athletes as speakers. Later in the year the faculty opposes the organization in soft ball. L club initiations are held twice a year. The fall initiation allows the football lettermen to join the club almost immedi- or ately after they receive their award. The second or spring initiation takes in the bas- ketball players and trackmen who have already won their let- ters. The L club initiations are none too gentle on the new members as they would readily testify. However, it's all in fun and such athletes should be able to take it . The L club, as the name suggests, is an organization made up of major letter winers in athletics. The club was founded twelve years ago by former Coach Stenger. Coach Sedgwick is now the sponsor. The officers for this year are William Moody, president: Casimir Krewinski, vice-president: and Bob Hixson, secretary-treasurer.

TRACK AND FIELD With but two meets to be run off before the conclusion of the 1937 track season, it has been made quite evident that Coach B. E. Garden has once again turned out another exceptional gold and blue team. The indoor season, consisting of four dual meets, one triangular meet, one quadrangu- lar meet, and two relay affairs, was heralded by the continual outstanding performances of Paskavon, Wrisley, Lafferty, Kollmeyer, and Timpton in the shot, dashes,'88U, high jump and hurdles, respectively. Opening the season with comparatively easy victories over both Austin and St. Igna- cius, the Lions bumped into stiffer competi- tion at Naperville, dropping their first deci- sion to that school. Following this with a third place in a quaclrangular meet between Oak Park, Rockford, and Englewood, the team continued in more or less hard luck, losing another close one to the stately Dukes of York. After placing third in a triangular meet won by Oak Park with New Trier in the number two spot, the Lions cen- tered all attention on the two final field house meets, the Naperville lnterscholastics and the Oak Park Relays. ln the former meet La Grange finished fourth of thirteen schools, behind Maine, Naperville, and York. A fourth place in the two mile relay, a third in the sprint medley, two thirds by Timpton in the high and low hurdles, a second by Wrisley in the 60 yard dash, and a first place record toss of 53 ft. 4M in. by. Paskavon in the shot put com- bined to give La Grange its total of 44 points. Though the Lions were unable to finish in the money in the Oak Park meet, Paskavon's first place toss of 53 ft. 3 in. again featured La Grange's showing, supplemented by Wrisley's third place performance in the broad jump. However, with the added events of the outdoor season, the La Grange team was able to strengthen itself considerably. Tamm's strong-armed performances with the javelin, Paskavon's skill with the discus, Wrisley's point winning leaps in the broad jump and Behrle's improved ability in the 440 all combined to add that much more strength. Page 113 T' With Tarnrn's toss of 166 ft. ll in. for a new school javelin record and Wrisley's performances in defeating Monahan of York in the 220 featuring La Grange's Vic- tory over York in the initial battle of the outdoor carn- paign, the Lion's carried high hopes of successfully de- Top, leftg Tarnrn fakes a javelin toss.

Undaunted at dropping a three point decision to Maine in the following meet, the same gold and blue tracksters went on to win third place in the district meet at Proviso. A double victory by Paskavon in the discus and shot put, a first by Tamm in the javelin, and two seconds by Wrisley in the 220 and broad jump proved the highlights of ' La Grange's showing. As a result of their performances, these three athletes will compose the La Grange representation in the state interscholastic meet to be held at Champaign May 14 7 and 15. The following Friday, May 21, La Grange will attempt to defend its championship title in the West Suburban confer- ence track and field meet to be held on the La Grange cinder paths. At a bit later date the frosh-soph track team will also have its conference meet, though the place is as yet undecided. Boasting such outstanding performers as Chinn in the 660, high lump, and hurdles, Allinson and Hitzel in the hurdles and dashes, Kucaba in the pole vault, and Sabin and Miller in the weight events, frosh and soph teams gave all appearances of proving an able successor to the 1937 varsity squad.

In circle: Captain Lafferty breaking the conference cross-country record, with Herzog of Maine coming in second. Led by Captain Bud Lafferty, the La Grange cross country team completed their season with a record of winning two of four dual meets and finishing third in the West Suburban conference meet. ln the West Suburban conference meet held at Maine, November l4, Lafferty's per- formance was outstanding, the La Grange captain scampering over the tough two- mile course in the record time of lO:49.5. Suffering an early season defeat at the hands of Proviso, 26 to 52, the harriers re- deemed themselves against York on Octo- ber 9, winning 14 to 23. Lafferty, Butkovich, and Starkovich finished first, second, and fourth respectively for La Grange. With Lafferty again pacing all entrants, the Gold and Blue nevertheless dropped their second meet before the more evenly balanced power of Maine, 23 to 46, on Oc- -tober 16. The following week at Downers Grove, Lafferty and Butkovich again ran one, two for La Grange, clinching a 23 to 36 victory. Despite Captain Lafferty's record breaking run, La Grange did not win the West Sub- urban conference meet. A fifth by Butko- vich was not enough to bring victory to La Grange, the first three team places going to Maine, York, and L. T. H. S. respectively.

Page 122 The golfers' enemy, rain, has prevented Mr. Payne's golf team from playing their full schedule this year. Up to the date of publi- cation only two matches have been played. The Bl Tee club swingers have come out on top of both Maine and Hinsdale. In the two contests Bob Brown shot a straight 827 Burt Abraharnson 84 and 887 Bill Taylor 87 and 825 Bob Hohl 997 and Whit Bartley 91. Other golfers not yet entered in interscholastic matches are Warren Ander- son, Bob Cave, Bob Chana, Bob Tones, Lake Kissick, and Bob Wilson. The main event every year in the golfers' point of view is the conference meet held this year May 21. All conference schools are entered and Mr. Payne gives his squad a good prospect of winning. Bill Taylor was the only La Grange man to qualify in the district tournament. This gives him a chance to play in the state match. 'UNTIN' BOWLERS The school went bowling this year en masse . Every afternoon found half the scholastic population over at the bowling alleys after that legendary 300 game. Under the direction of Mr. Youngblood and Mr. Payne ten teams were selected and a school league was inaugurated. In the matches that followed La Francis' team copped top honors, closely followed by Towell, Conrad and Brockschmidt. Players on the winning OVER THE HILL AND FAIR-WAY team were Ioe La Francis, Swede Markl, Bob Conahan, Dave Williams, and Milt Lucas. TENNIS The racqueteers as well as the golfers were forced to get off to a slow start be- cause of the rain this season. The only match played up to publication time was with Maine. Although this first contest was lost, Coach Martin and assistant Coach lohn Turner believe they have a fine bunch of players in Vaughan, Palmer, Moody, and Williamson. Games later in the season are scheduled with Hinsdale and the junior col- lege team.

Up to the time ot publication three more victories have been added to this record for the season of '37 This year's team has a real roster of stars. Heading the hitting list is Mike Portner, batting around .500 with two homers in three games to his credit. Krewinski has no trouble on the mound keeping the teams at bay. l-le has had no defeats so tar. Witmer, Trost, and Grimmenga with Portner form a quadruple bulwark ot slugging strength. For this year Coach Sedgwick has made out a full schedule ot about fifteen games. With the start that the nine has now, some real records should be chalked up. Krewinski has al- ready approached the school strike-out mark of sixteen. In the Leyden game he struck out fourteen opposing batters. Coach Sedgwick believes that Portner should break the record tor stolen bases. Page 124 Bill Moody and Krewinski are the two right handed twirlers who have taken the three games this year. Bloom, West Chicago, and Leyden were the three victims. Moody laid out Bloom, leaving the next two for Krewinski. Sarkisaw furnishes the target for the moundsmen with Paul Boberts as his understudy. Keepers of the garden Coutfield to novicesl are Grimmenga, Azzarello, and Monti. Very few batters find an opening in this combination. The infield with Portner at third, Kent at the keystone, Widmer at shortstop, and Trost handling the initial sack, is practically a stone wall and not easily topped. Although the main squad is composed mostly of seniors, a few underclassmen have gained positions. Archie Sarkisaw, first string catcher, is only a junior, and Paul Roberts of the second team is a sophomore. Frank Portner, another sophomore, following the footsteps of the long line of Portners, is making a name for himself in the infield.

ON TAP One, two, left foot first Eloise McCann, as the instructor of the advanced tap dancing class, demonstrated to the girls the dancing way to keep slender. This year, the girls had their choice of taking gym during school regularly, or choosing the after school activity which appealed to them. The tap dancing class numbered about fifty at the beginning of the year. Miss Wakefield had a class in beginners' tap dancing, and the girls learned the waltz tap, military tap, and the sailors' horn pipe. Eloise McCann took a class in advanced tapping, which numbered about twelve members through- out the year. Page 126 SOCCER In the tall about thirty girls came out for soccer regularly. Unlike previous years, teams were not formed, but the girls just played with each other to earn points for G. A. A. membership and awards. Though no tournament was held, the girls had a lot of fun playing for personal merit rather than for the glory oi the team.

Unlike previous years, the basketball tournament was open to all girls who were playing to earn their points for G. A. A., to make a gym credit, or just to have tun. In all, a total of one hundred and titty girls, or sixteen teams, turned out for basketball. Included in this were three freshman teams, six sophomore teams, two junior teams, three senior teams, and two teams ot girls from the Masonic home. On the championship team were Thelma Cooksey, captain, Dorothy Dolan, Gladys Moore, Marion Perrot, Dorothy Kokuska, Muriel Boddy, Gertrude Wil- bur, Ruth Towell, and Eleanor MacDonald, all of them outstanding players. Edith Kupke, as captain of the runner-up team, showed remarkable leadership and ability on the floor. Page 128 IN THE AIR Honorable mention for outstanding playing, however, might be given to Barbara Osborne's team of sopho- more girls, who put up a good scrap in every game. Margaret Coffey's team, also, went a long way in the tournament. Miss Dorothy Wakefield, instruc- tor of physical education, saw action in several of the games inthe ab- sence of regular members. RIDING POPULAR Two classes in horseback riding were formed this year with an aver- age of about thirty-five girls out each Thursday afternoon. The beginners were in one class to learn the rudi- ments of horseback riding, while the advanced riders learned formation riding. Special arrangements were made with the Stafford stables. In Iune a horse show was planned for the more advanced riders. BOWLING 'EM OVER For the first time in the history of the school, a girls' bowling tourna- ment was started. Of the fifty regu- lar members, ten teams were formed with five girls on a team. Mary Attleson's team and Nevarte Kosh- garian's team were keen rivals and led the tournament. Several of the good bowlers entered the Chicago Evening American bowling tourna- ment and of these, Mary Attleson and Eleanor Conrad were winners. Mary won a sweater and Eleanor, a pair of bowling shoes. Mary Attleson took first place with an average of l27.2, Ruth Towell was second with l2l.U5p Ianice Bay- mond, third, ll8.7, Mildred Busch- ing, ll8.05, Lois Squire, ll8p Nevarte Koshgarian, ll5.9, Arlene Peterson, 112.655 Lois Hahn, lO8.5.

Ruth Towell was runner-up and in the finals was beaten by Virginia Dearing in a very close game. Intramural baseball was held in the spring with a ma- jority of juniors out, followed in numbers by freshmen. Practices were held on Tuesdays and Thursdays and games between classes on Wednesday. The groups which went out for baseball were mainly girls who are earning their points for G. A. A., juniors who expect to win their state awards. Class played class in a series of small track meets in- stead of a large field day. Individual points were kept up to sixth place, and the girl with the highest total was the winner. ln this year's events, Ellen Mullett took first place in the high jump with a leap of tour feet, seven inches. Minnie Keiser won the broad jump, by a large margin, and Ruth Horlick carried oft high honors in the dashes and other running events.

Ruth Horliclc ran away with all the running events, which largely helped her to Win first place. A delegation ot girls from our G. A. A. took part in the two play days held this year. ln the tall, a play clay Was held at Proviso with representative groups from all G. A. A. members in the West Suburban conference. These girls divided into inter-school teams and played together instead ot competitively. In the spring a similar play day was held at Maine, with ten ot the La Grange G. A. A. members attending. ln connection with this play day was a swim tor all attending, giving the girls an addi- tional chance to play at Winter sports. During the day, the girls attended a joint G. A. A. meeting and a lunch- eon. Page 131 Award Winners . . .
