■0j[ Vhe CALDRONETTE J0- — Girls Athletics The girls this year did not have regular gym work because of its being necessary to discontinue having a physical education instructor; however, Miss Howard, home economics teacher, coached the girls in different sports which were played during noon hours. Teams were organized and played a series of games, which were held Monday and Thursday noons. Basketball was the sport that interested a majority of the girls, so it was played more than volley-ball or baseball. Some girls were quite interested in tennis, so they played (luring their noon hours in the spring. The basketball season turned out to be quite successful. All girls who competed seemed to have enjoyed doing so. Four teams were organized, two for each noon period. After a number of games, the winning team of each noon played a final game to tell which team was the champion. This game was played March seventh after school. The score was 18 to 12. The Champion team of which Harriet Strickler was captain, represented the first noon period, from 11 :15 to 12:15. The members of this team were: center, Harriet Strick- ler; forwards, Virginia Dawson, Bertha Erbackcr and Betty Mitchell; guards, Amelia Newby, Mary Louise Greenman and Mary Levak. Four teachers played basketball this year. With the help of three girls of the Alumni, Freida Whipple, Winnie Bates, and Betty Greene, Miss Howard, Miss Marion Greene, Miss Gray, and Miss Adlard defeated some of the high school girls in a game played March third. The score was 21 to 11. This year there were two playdays, one for the girls of this school, and one with the girls of Perry. The first was held during March, in the high school gym. Since this was held during basketball season, basketball was the chief event. there were 3 games, a foul shooting contest, and 3 relays for which th basketballs were used. Four teams were organized and named after prominent colleges. For every event, points were given to each team.

■©( Vhe CALDRONETTE }e Basketball Under Mr. Tarr’s coaching the team did very well this year with Bates, Beall, Nagy, Koren, Brewster, and Ulle as the mainstays. There was a fine reserve team that always fought hard to win. We will lose ( aptain Koren, I lie and Nagy this year and are sorry to see them go. Madison made 236 points to their opponents 229. We came out third in the league.

They have had plenty of experience and will no doubt use it. Bates is a clean, hard player that alwavs made sure that Madison got the tip off. Beall, a hard fighting guard, will come in very handy next year. Nagy proved to be a good forward whose spirit for good sportsmanship dominated. Koren was a fast playing forward that always fought till the gun ended the game. Brewster is a swift moving southpaw' who usually found the basket. I He, a man of great experience, could play only half a year, but played well in every game. L. Cone. Page Twenty-two

• 2$ The CALDRONETTE J0- Class Prophecy Continued from Page Eleven the skating parties of high school days. When I think how Edward Ulle used to hate movie-actors, it seems strange that he should now be one himself, re- ceiving thousands of fan letters a day. Arvo Komssi was back for a vacation from France, where he is ambassador. Then we were gives a program by members of the class. Robert McKechnie, whom vaudeville audiences all over the country know and love, sang and told jokes; Anne Janczic, who is with the Metropolitan Opera Company, sang us airs from some of the operas in which she has starred; Catharine Brotzman read to us from her book of poems, which is already in the fourth edition; Rose Schworm did her own famous dance, which she originated, and that toast of the New York stage, Helen Leyde, sang three numbers from the latest Broad- way hit in which she is playing. At this point, Beatrice Corle arrived. She had just returned from India this afternoon, and was not able to come any sooner. She is a missionary. Of course Edna Bartholomew was especially glad to see her. Edna drew the plans for the Graham building, 130 stories high and is the only famous woman draftsman. How proud Mr. Ross must be of his mechanical drawing pupil! Muriel and Katherine have both gone to sleep long ago, so that Muriel will be able to get to her music pupils on time tomorrow morning and Katherine will be ready to teach her class in dramatics. We will all remember tonight a long time—no, last night' It’s 3 o’clock now, so this is all for now, diary. I must get a little sleep so that my arithmetic pupils tomorrow will not be able to catch me on a simple multiplication problem. Elizabeth Qt ikk. Sophomores Continued from Page Thirteen not get much chance this year, but seems very promising. At the scholarship banquet at Wickliffe, the sophomores were represented by six members of their class, four girls and two boys. They are: Amelia Newby, Caroline Henninge, Margery Loring, Betty Mitchell, Adam Febel, and Joe Grgat. We are also fortunate in having the school winner of the “Prince of Peace Declamation contest,” Rachel Krause. Here’s something about our future “Rudy Vallee” and “Ben Bernies.” In proportion to the number in the orchestra, we are fairly wTell represented. Of the saxophones, two are played by sophomores. The two that play that ever beloved horn are Bob Adams and Harold Dunn; of them we will expect much more in the coming years. The bass violin, the overgrown fiddle, is played by Caroline Henninge; and Dorothy Ecklund plays the violin. 1 hese are only a few who have helped make our school better and I can truthfully say that every sophomore is a person worth knowing. I hope that gives you a vague idea of “Who’s Who” in the sophomore class. Your Editor, Joe Grgat. Page Twenty-four
