Page 4 MADISON MIRROR.. Friday, June 8, 1934 Art Club Meets Thursday Last In Auditorium The Middle High School Art Club had a meeting last Thursday in And period to determine the color most proper for the walls of room .100. A lengthy debate was held and no decision was reached until the next afternoon, when it was decided to pass a resolution to approve sea-green walls with terra-cotta wood-work trimmed with fine lines of pink, orange, purple and orchid. The floor it was agreed, should be painted a light pink alternating with mustard yellow. Other colors suggested by members of the club were pink walls with blue woodwork and an orange floor. Black walls with a purple floor and peacock-blue door-stops. Red walls, a yellow-floor, and a pale orange baseboard, etc., etc, etc. Membership in the club, which costs five cents per year to pay for the January picnic, at present consists of three. They are, F.ne Joggen, We DUt Hatkins. Wcary-itt Hight, President. Vice-President, and Secretary-treasurer respectively. During this year the Art Club has done many things to awaken the school to the value of Art. For instance, they send pretty picture post-cards to all the little sick children, they help design beatuiful stage effects, and they take charge of all interior decorating done in the school. Petition Submitted to Dictator Laehler Following the refusal of the faculty committee to consider the plea of 500 leading students to hold regular classes only on Saturdays and Sundays and to cancel the present five day school week, the students interested in the move have submitted their petition to Weonard I-achler, dictator of all school affairs under the present regime. His decision on the measure will be read to the students on Monday next. Mr. Ladder's action on this question may be of the greatest political import. It is feared that any dissension in the Purple Shirt party at this time would result in his overthrow by Hant Graas, defeated candidate for the dictatorship. JUNIOR HIGH NEWS THE CRUELTY OF DEATH They say that death is always cruel Like coal consumes, it burns the fuel. I know that many shrink at death But one that did not, was Macbeth. A man of world-known fame was he, And king of Scotland he hoped to be. A second Dillinger we can him call But, lo, here conies Macduff to cause his fall. After many murderous deeds Macbeth now lies beneath the weeds. 72 Students Pass Through Central Sr. To the solemn strains of Beethovens Sixth Symphony played by The Junior High School Band seventy-two members of Central Junior High School passed into Central Senior High School at ten forty-five this morning. They were lead in the grand march by Miss Smida Vith and a group of flower girls from the seventh grade who strewed poison ivy, rotten tomatoes, and lemons in the path of the students to be honored. The parade was received at the head of the stairs by Weonard Laehler, dictator for the present (a silver mounted horseshoe with fur trimming). Said Mr. Laehler— This is indeed a pleasure. It jjives me great pleasure to receive such smiling faces into the ranks of the Purple Shirts. As to what else you will do here besides voting for me, it seems to me that that's your problem. After this jolly greeting from our dictator, the new students were marched to their new cells, where they were each given a patent cversharp and two lolly-pops as prizes for being so good. For supper they will be given as a special treat of sugar on their oatmeal as a celebration of the joyous occasion of their promotion. Outstanding among those who passed are Oscar Drmfrzl, Jennie Jilch, Joannah B. Preebles, and Charles Henry John Bertram Robert Edmonton Tishbein Smith. Mrs. Eata Hordahl Speaks Jo School Mrs. Eata Hordahl and Mrs. Buhu Keinz spoke at two auditorium programs held last week in the auditorium. Mrs. Hordahl spoke on her African adventures in Africa. She described the most bcatifu! boa constrictor she had ever seen, and dwelt for fifteen minutes on the physiology of boa constrictor physique. She also described the rest of her African party and diamonds in the rough. Mrs. Keinz, local W.C.T.U. officer, told of the evils of strong drink, and of its awful, degrading effect on the younger generation. To conclude her most interesting speech, she quoted this motto to remind the younger generation constantly of the horrible temptations that continually assail them— The man takes a drink, the drink takes a drink, and the drink takes you.” Now Then Laundry bags were made at the beginning of the semester sewing classes under Miss Ror-etta Hcilly, and the girls arc now working on pillow slips, handkerchief bags, and bedroom Members of Miss Bcdelia Bal-laghcr's home room, 101B have made out a set of rules for the courtesy campaign in their home room. The rules deal with courtesy. ♦ ♦ Teakettle, dominoes, and checkers are a few of the many social games played in Miss Porn's’ game club. 4 4 The pupils of Miss Bamy H.nun's club are giving topics of scientific interest. Some of the reports were “The Composition of Ocean Water. and “Why a Roadrunner can Fight a Rattlesnake. 4 4 That that is is that that is not is not nor is that that is that that is not as that that is not is not that that is. Mr. Digbce will not be here to conduct his dramatic club for the rest of the semester, so the dramatic club will be conducted by Mr. Digbce. 4 4 The stamp club is exchanging and collecting stamps from various countries. 4 4 The science club seems to be very active for they are taking imaginary trips, and then recounting them. 4 4 It is rumored that Hospcth dementi, a 9th grader, is expected to be back at Central next semester. He is now residing in Milwaukee. 4 4 Hie members of Mr. Kichacl Boskey's Free Throw club are throwing free throws to practice for a free throw contest.

Ho hum. 4 4 Miss Margaret Hc]»erdsand Mr. Dirton Hiehls’ Boys' Dancing club has learned many dancing steps. Members now think that dancing isn't so hard. They dance with the girl . 4 4 Members of Miss Hind's homeroom are editing a class paper called the 101A Bugle. Miss Huth Hartholopcw's home room I02B also elected class officers the past week. - Just a Thought There were wisps of blue, orange, gray and purple. That day was waning fast away. The sun was one great firy circle, I hail passed a dreamy day. At last the sun was sinking It created majestic figures in scores And there I sat a’thinking This is a joy one can not find in doors. —28—

Friday, June 8, 1934 MADISON MIRROR. Page 3 SEE KENOIT GAME Axel’s TIPS THE FUDDLE Facta and Fi|ur i Maybe it's news to you but diet you know that seven out of everv 11 men or 64% on the fotoball teams that we met this year played in the line . . . “Bib” Smith picked up a third place in TWO-HEARTS JONES the broad jump in one of Middle's three duel meets with a leap of 13 feet, 4f4 inches . . . This is within nine feet of the existing state record, held by Deards, also of this school, and great things are expected from Smith in the future . . . Middle had a full golf team on the field ready to meet West, but just to show that things like that don't really happen outside of story books. West didn't show up . . . Battling Tiny” Johnson, Middle's fast little bantamweight champion, successfully defended his crown against Van John Ber-an . . . The tennis team went through the season without losing a single match, and then went on to take the city and state championships . . . The basketball season was also a success, except for one thing,—the Orange and Black quintet lost out in the finals of the state tournament to Horlick, but this will be remedied next year according to Coach Kichael Bos-key . . . Dirton Hichl, track coach, is heard to say that he thought that if Ray Erdman would concentrate on the mile run, instead of entering the 440, 100, and both hurdles also, he could get down to about 10 minutes flat for the grind. For the thirty-third time in a row Milwaukee high schools failed to place higher than 12th in the state track meet held at Cramp Andall three months ago. Back in 1893 when there were only three schools in the meet Milwaukee East-south-cast placed third but since then they have not done so well. Girls Pick Team by Hurdle Lord II The pink and green 11 defeated the Black and Blue seniors in an exciting contest. The league is made up of the following teams and players: Black and Blue: Ruck Mire, colonel, C. Shoveler. Frances Warts, and Anita Kilium. Pink and Green: Abraham Lincoln, lieutenant, M. Christmas, (Happy New Year), Betty Speak. M. Shortacre, and M. M. Lumberjack. Violet: Cigar Butts, corporal, F.. Mansfield, C. Driver, Fern Joyout, and D. Moan. Kenoit 73-Middle 21 by Innocent Madman After a close, hard battle that lasted for seven minutes the Pur-jays eked out a 73-2J S decision. Had it not been for the broken fingernail sustained by Dim Jean, the star quartcrmiler, Middle would undoubtedly have come out on top. Kenoit gained their meager total by three touch-downsj six charity tosses, an eagle, two aces in the left hand court, a bird in the hand, a slam in the fancy diving, three no trump, vulnerable and doubled, and a homcrun in the ninth inning. Central scored on a terrific smash to midcourt by Hea-to Scaro, ballet specialist. Great things arc hoped for next year despite this discouraging result as the team is losing only the catcher, the No. 1 doubles team, their only ten goal men. the left wing, a reserve center, the three-quarter back, a pole vaultcr, and a breast stroker. Freshmen, Headed by Dora Lark» Win Class Meet The class track meet yesterday proved a big success with the freshmen running away with the meet. The first year men scored 70 out of a possible 108 points with the seniors next in line with 30. followed by the sophomores with 7 and the juniors with one. For the freshman Dora Lark was the star, winning nine events. These included all the running events from two feet six inches to 338 miles. The weight events were dominated by Heda Band, senior ace, who took the 35 pound shot put with a heave of 64 feet, and the discus with a 30 foot mark. The juniors one point was picked up by Betty Zitzman, who leaved 7 feet, 3 inches to take a third in the broad jump, which was won by Yaas Bicbenlerg. Middle Points at Coming Tiff; Favored to Win League leaders will offer stiff competition but do not seem to be strong enough by Bred Faster From the head line atop this story don't get the idea that the Bosicey coached boys arc rude. Far from it. Due to the courtesy campaign sponsored by Dictator Lachler, the members of the quintet, sextet, foursome, duo, nine, eleven, or what have yoxt. you would not think of being so rude as to point at anyone. N.B. They can't think. What the head actually refers to is the coming battle with the Kenoit Pur jays, or as they are more often called, the Parlicks. Your correspondent (just call me Cora) was witnessing a practice of the teams in the gym-iron or was it the gridnasium on the eve of the event referred to above, in which the Orange and Black are the topheavy favorites to come out on top. Coach Boskey decided a scrimmage would be just the thing the team needed for the battle tomorrow, since with all the boys having an I. Q. of at least 120 there would be little need for a signal practice. Deciding that they needed some stiff competition. he picked the Seventh grade Wildcats to oppose them. The rival captains flipped a coin, giving Middle the honors. Hurray Kerchief served, and on the faceoff Two Hearts Jones (I mean Smid” Biff) chose a No. 2 iron, but he smacked the pigskin into the net, giving the enemy a free throw. This was wide of the bullseye and Bob Bean gathered the stitched off the boards and swept down the track gaining speed at every stroke. He slipped the baton over to Bernie Winchell. the Chinncse bantamweight. Practice was called off during the next instant, however, because Bari CaLella. while trying to keep Bernie from tacking poorly. accidentally laid out the whole West team. (I mean Junior High, of course.) From this encouraging exhibition dear old Middle is unanimously picked to trim the Pur-jays, who at the present are leading the race with a .0001 rating. —27—
