A teacher said, Be seated, please. Which put us Freshmen more at ease. And we soon learned when to sit and stand And were ever ready with willing hand To help our classmates and teachers too, Just as good Freshies ought to do.

He had had experience as a coach when he came to Macomb High and has since that time given us a line athletic record in every sport. Mere words cannot express our regard for Jack, but the following statement made by one of M3C0ll1b,S leading citizens helps to tell what we think of our Coach. Coach Jackson is one of the squarest, galnest ,and linest nien that ever lived I Let us hope that Jack will stay at M. H. S. and continue to put out winning teams for many years to come. MM r sw M THE 1928 SPIDER WEB Q l- Foot Ball VERNON BROADHEAD Rube, our diminutive captain, was our best ground-gainei' and lead the team from the quarter- back stall in almost perfect fashion. His speed and fight made him much respected by all oppon- ents. This was his last year. MM page Fifty, MM M THE 1928 SPIDER WEB M CARL DUNBAR Dutch played in the backlleld, end and tackle, this year. He was a valuable man in all positions. He was a deadly tackler and a hard-hitting full-back. He has one more year. ROBERT LINDSTEDT Bob. although inexperienced and inclined to be nervous, made up for these defects by his fight. He showed his worth in the Pekin game. Bob has two more years. LESLIE KILLINGSWORTH Tiny was seen at center this year and played that position very well. He was a stone wall on defense and his passing was excellent. He leaves a big hole to fill next year. CONRAD SENN Con, only a freshman, has, evidently, some of his cousin Bill's ability. He filled the half- back position nicely in several games. With more experience, he should be one of the best half- backs M. H. S. has ever had. LELAND JACKSON Skeeter was at his old place at end this fall and showed the speed and fight of former years. Few runs were made around his Wing. This was his last year. Mm Page Fzfty One M THE 1928 SPIDER WEB M GEORGE REED Jim although handicapped , by weak eyes, played end and half back in great style. His vicious tackling was a feature of every game. He will be back next year. PAUL VAIL Senator, whose speed and elusiveness in an open field gained many yards for us this year, is a Senior. His will be a hard place to fill next year. JAMES JACKSON Jim, a sub last year, was pro- moted to the fiist squad this year. He was in the thick of the fight- ing at all times. This was his last year. CLOYD MUSTAIN Cloyd was a sub who broke into games this fall and performed in creditable fashion. He has one more year. LEWIS PENNINGTON Claude was seen at left end this fall and performed well. He will graduate. mm Page Fifty-Two M THE 1928 SPIDER WEB M COLLINS CREASY Bud was small for a line- man but his experience at Pin- hook helped him win a bei-th on the team.

She is a graduate of Iowa State University. Besides gymnasium classes in the Junior and Senior High School, she conducts classes at the ward schools. A very active organization of Girl Scouts was formed with Miss Lorenz as Captain. She has made it possible for the girls interested in basket- ball to have class teams with practices as often as the gymnasium is available. The Athletic Associ- ation too has grown under her careful guidance and the campaign for a bigger and more active association.

M Page Seventy-Four M THE 1928 SPIDER WEB M The Future of the Seniors I gazed at the little roll of white paper tied with a bit of ribbon, my reward for four years of study in high school. Could it be that I had received my diploma? I sat down, worn out by the strain of the last few days. I was so tired, and sleepy, too. My eyelids fluttered and slowly closed and I began to partake of a peaceful slumber. I awoke with a start! Oh! the awful noise! What did it all mean? Extra! Extra! Ex-tra! cried the youthful voice of the paper boy. It was now daylight. Had I slept so long? I went to the door to get the paper. Behold the bold headlines: James Jackson Makes Non-Stop Flight Around the World. Why he only graduated last night, that was impossible. Then for the surprise as I looked at the date, May 25, 19383' It was Greek to me, what was it all about? Something else caught my eye. Jackson's Flight Financed by Leslie Killingsworth, Henry lf'ord's Successor. Was I dreaming? I read farther in the paper. English Royal Family Entertained by the Singing, Dancing, and Jokes of the World-Famous Comedian, Nevin Barclay. Was it really true? I turned the page and these words stood staring at me. History of the Class of '28. Maybe that would solve my problem.

Mm Page Seventy-Six M THE 1928 SPIDER WEB M CHIVALRY A maiden riding alone through Olde Englande was beset by rogues. A lad in armor riding close behind came swiftly up. A few blows and the rogues fied. When the girl recognized her deliverer, she rode haughtily on with the comment, Kitchen knave! Yet when the lad, Gareth, vanquished the three knights holding her sister prisoner, he won the maiden herself. Years later, in the heart of London, a group of courtiers were conversing in front of a palace. A shining carriage drew up. The door opened. A lady, bejewelled and resplendent in silks and laces, looked helplessly at her shining slippers and then at the puddle between the carriage and the curb. The courtiers racked their brains. A slen- der page stepped up removing his cloak. He spread it over the puddle and the Queen of England crossed, her slippers unsoiled. Several years later the page, now known as Sir Walter Raleigh, was high in command of the Queen's navy. He led' several of her expeditions to the New World. A countiy store keeper, on closing for the night, found six cents too much in the till. He recalled having neglected to give a lady her change. That night on his way home he made a detour of eight miles and returned the pennies. In 1860, a woman stood in a vast multitude in Washington listening to a tall, quaint, homely man give an in- augural address which marked the beginning of his duties as President of the United States. Honest Abe! she murmured as she remembered that night long ago. Chivalry is the badge of greatness. GERALD CURTIS. A DREAM OF THE SENIOR CLASS Do you believe in transmigration of the soul? Perhaps you will after I tell you of my vision the other night. I had been reading by the light from a fire in the grate when suddenly onto the hearth a knight, clad in glistening silver armor, rode swiftly. From his words as he galloped by, I learned that he was on the quest of rescuing the fair Lady Marguerite from the clutches of a villain and it dawned on me that this was a previous incarnation of Lewis Pennington of the famous class of '28. He was followed by a herald, dressed in much gold braid and velvet, blowing his horn and calling loudly: Make way! Make Way ye people! Her majesty, the queen, approaches! And this lad I perceived was John Keys. The queen rode in a. magnificent chariot and imagine my surprise when I saw that the face beneath the crown was Bernice Kent's and that her lady-in-waiting was none other than Maurine Cole. Then followed the Jester in the person of Nevin Barclay. Walking behind the queen's carriage came a body of court ministers, among whom I recognized Robert Hatfield, Paul Vail, Wayne Yeast and James Jackson, heatedly arguing over some important question. Then came several knights who looked as if they might be prepared to enter a tournament and I saw that thry were Vernon Broadhcad, Leslie Killingsworth and Leland Jackson. Behind them came many young girls all cheering and encouraging the brave men about to enter the jousts. Among these I recognized Mary Lescher, Ve Da Leighty, Geraldine Yeast, and Mildred Anderson. Last in the procession came those stately ladies, all dressed in satins and pearls, riding in beautiful carria es. Of these I recognized only a few, Mary Heckman, Virginia Patton, and Jenne Ridge. So I am convinced that our most illustrious class has come down through the ages together and that it will continue to remain so. KATHRYN KNAPPENBERGER. MM Page Seventy-Seven M THE 1928 SPIDER WEB M Seven score and four weeks ago destiny broughtiforth in the halls of Macomb High School a new class, conceived in ignorance and dedicated to the proposition that all men must acquire learning. We have now, for the course of four years been engaged in a great intellectual effort, testing whether this class, or any part of it so conceived and so dedicated can in time achieve what they have been sent here to accomplish. - We came to high school four years ago, eagerly wondering what this new school had in store for us. We had come to dedicate, as we soon discovered, a large portion of our time and energy to our teachers, who gave their skill and patience that we might become as wise and learned as they. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But we soon discovered that we must not cram too much to accomplish well our task. Nor must we play too long, nor dared we bluff at all. The ones among us, living and nearly dead who have won A's, have proven this method far below our desire to consider or adopt. Perhaps We will little note or long remember what we learned here, but we can never forget some of the things we did. It is for us, the class of '28 now to be dedicated to the unfinished task which we have thus far so nobly advanced. It is for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us, that from these four happy years we take increased devotion to life, the aim for which our teachers gave their fullest measure of devotion. That we hereby resolve that our splendid opportunities shall not have been in vain, and our records shall not perish from the school. BERYL HUNT. SENIOR DAYS By the shores of Lamoine River By the slow and murmuring waters, In the Dear Old Macomb High School, Were enrolled the dignified Seniors, Were enrolled the hearty classmates. Straight before them rose the future, Rose their love pursuit of knowledge. There the patient corps of teacheis Guided all the dignified Seniors Aided them in Mathematics With its factors and equations, Led them through their Science courses, Taught them all about their English Which will aid and help them always. Near the first part of the season Ranked the every-ready Seniors Standing matched with other classes. Heard the calling of Athletics: Penny, Leslie and Skeeter Jackson, Barclay, Broadhead and Kirkpatrick, Took their places in athletics. Elsewhere you will find the Seniors Speaking, singing and debating, Turning thoughts at times to frolic, But always keeping high above them All the standards of their High School. HELEN RUSH.
