We worked with pluck so we sailed in luck Till into the port we drew. Tack A ll. As Sophomores we in childish glee our marvelous trip began. Miss Krueger was made the pilot staid and Captain Beach-- Head Man. Brave talent was found on the football ground when Fowler and Jones and 'Deets Came out ahead with numerals red, bruised shins and marks of cleats. A rollicking costume party lent distinction to our year, Thus passed away with good times gay one lap of our career. Tack ll. The autumn of Twenty-six dawns bright 5- the favoring breezes swell, We look for gales, so trim the sails and pray that all goes well. To govern the ship were Harland Held, fa very outstanding skipperj And Mrs, Trafton, none more dear, so we fcltifine and chipper. NVe helped to support each club and sport and claim that that's the reason Most every line could boast so fine and unexeelled a season. Two pieces of work were ours alone with no other classes' aid, A mystery play and the Prom in May, their fame will never fade. We gave The Rear Car as our Junior play to a much-thrilled crowd one night, At shrieks and ereaks and monkey-freaks the audience screamed with fright. fTwas thus by the means of a talented east and guidance and help of all XVe 'stored in the hold a heap of gold for the coming Junior ball. Prom favors we now must make-and how! They 're oodles of fun to fix, Gum dolls, Power horns, and butterflies, and birds on gilded sticks. Each class will attest its prom ts the best, but we bore our boastings out, When faculty and town agree, can there be room for doubt? Entitle it not the Lincoln Gym, that garden in which we danced, But a fairy bower with bird and flower and each spring charm enhanced, From covering made of boughs fresh laid hung glittering butterflies. Each trellised nook around us held new pleasures for our eyes. The luncheon room--why to praise it try? Just one revelation we'll make, We took no picture of the prom. 'Twas far too choice to take. Next turbulent nights of wild class fights made it clear that war is--well, 'We'll stop hereg lct our Senior year the rest of the story tell. Q ,J m ffl 'L as a 1 e 5 i Y ' v .

A capital ship for an ocean trip our vessel has proved to be. Two years are done, let 's have some fun with our new found dignity. NVith Harlan and Miss O'Donnell and Miss MacDougall aboard to guide us, Vile felt secure and doubly sure that no harm dared betide us. The season for football, steered by Sam , we're telling you that was great., We lost one light, but came back right and more than cleaned the slate. Our carnival was a peach, because we spared no work, or expense, We even had bands from foreign lands, their talent was just immense. The way that we put our Work across-not one other class could do it, Old Barnum's stuff was fair enough, but our show beat his to it. Our basketball team, a eagey quint, found fame with every game, We didn't win the district but we won a noble name. Reporters upon the Otaknam staff felt glory beyond their quota, Their sheet, though small, ranked first of all its class in Minnesota. The Senior class members came out strong in extemp and declamation. ln music, too, to us is due sincere congratulations. Our work in debate took first in the state. A din of applause arises Four Seniors on the two brave teams that helped win three grand prizes. And now what a boon! The Man in the Moon invites us to come to his party. 'We thank you, Juniors, for your prom. Accept our praises hearty. The Senior class play, then Commencement Day, our glorious voyage is done. The ship has weathered every rack, the prize we 've sought is Won!

He had the appearance of a person deeply interested in a 'search for some- thing which, when found, would become of vital importance to the progress of humankind. Suddenly, he stopped with a jerk. Across his countenance there spread an exultant smile, and with head uplifted, he let forth the most piercing, triumphant note ever issued from human lip-s. Apparently from nowhere sprang four other men, evidently his compatriots. They were taller and larger of stature than the first, but even at a glance it was easy to see that he was the leader among them. Emitting queer and mysterious shouts, they circled about the spot where the leader stood, performing some quixotic dance the like of which has never been witnessed. Then, unstrapping the shovels carried on their backs, they began to dig in a fever of excitement. They continued to dig in this frenzied state for three hours, and at last they unearthed a beautiful diamond studded golden chest which glittered so in the bright sunlight that they could scarcely look at it. 'With shaking knees and trembling hands the four henchmen unlocked the chest with the key their leader had on afchain about his neck. Lo! and Behold! This is what they found in that gorgeous treasure chest: small packages, large packages, round packages, square packages-all done up in beautiful scarlet and white paper, tied with scarlet and white ribbons. The first thing that met the eyes of these five men fperhaps here it would bc best to disclose the name of the leader, CEugenc Fowler, the Tnvineiblej, was a rectangular document, and on it was written in large, brilliant scarlet letters- The Pieces of Twenty- eight. The Invincible Gene began to read slowly, in a deep sonorous voice, tl1e inscriptions on the packages. This is what he read: Small Cylindrical Package: Gertrude Eldred leaves the piece Sam, the Old Aceordian Man, and her love for it, to Gretchen Duncan.

After all these inscriptions ha.d been read by the Invincible Gene, tl1e packages were thrown back into the beautiful treasure chest in a topsy-turvy manner and the chest was locked. Emitting queer noises, the leader and his four henchmen danced the same quixotic dance they had done at the discovery of the treasure. Suddenly, upon the command of the leader they stopped daneing,and with little effort picked up the heavy chest and bore it down to their boat on the shore. Being mighty men and good at the oar, it took them but a few minutes to reach their private sailing vessel which was lying peace- fully at anchor a short distance from shore. VVith full sails the ship faded into the horizon of the return voyage to Mankato, Minnesota, bearing with it that most wonderful treasure The Pieces of '2S.

School is to be housed with the Senior High School in the old High limi School building While they will miss the close contact with the Senior High School, this will be more than compensated for by the fact that they will be in their new building and given the opportunity to grow and develop an organization with their own traditions, ideals, and personality. This group has always beeniactive in all branches of school enter- prises. They have had members on the student council who have shown rare ability and people who should develop into good material when they reach high school. During the last quarter, eight students were on the honor roll and twenty-three on the reading room list. This is indeed a large proportion and is still more to be commented on when we consider that they are carrying live subjects and need to have four A's and one B plus to be on the honor roll. It is noticeable that those who win scholastic honors in the Junior High School are usually the ones who win honors when they reach the Senior High School. In Basketball the boys' team over one hundred pounds weight, won fifty percent of their games. Those boys under one hundred pounds in weight won but one game, but they played well, nevertheless. The owing to the fact that they do not compete with outside schools, had girls, m ore teams-five in all-two from the ninth grade, two from the eighth grade and one from the seventh. The ninth grade team won first place having won all games which they played. The eighth graders lost one game so placed in second position. VVOPC The school had many worth while assemblies among which we might mention a few. Miss Robbins of the Teachers' College told of her trip to . Norway. The Christmas program was made up entirely of their own talent and was a very enjoyable affair. They also took part with the Senior High School in several joint assemblies, the outstanding one being that in which the whole school did ho11or to the boys of the school who offered their services to their couiitry in 1918. In thrift, the Flranklin Junior High School pupils easily excel the Sen- iors. Many of the groups have had one hundred percent and very few ever go below the average. ln conclusion, the Senior High School bids you goodbye for a short time. May you enjoy yourselves in your new building and when you come back to us bring enthusiasm and spirit with you and help carry on the tradition of the High School. Louis R.

The first league debate was staged December Hth at the local school be- tween Mankato and Wiiiliebago, Mankato drawing the negative side and NVin- nebago the affirmative. The decision was 3 to 0 in favor of the negative team. The second debate, was the triangular debate between Fairmont, Albert Lea and Mankato on December 19th. Mankatois negative team, Bernice Mick- elson, Helen Knapp, and Gertrude Avery, journeyed to Fairmont and won a 3 to 0 victory ,- while Albert Lea is negative team failed to reach Mankato in time for the debate. Because Mankato 's atfiriuative team, Vllilliam Plymat, Gertrude Iled, and Winfield Foster did not have a chance to try their ease on the Albert liea team these three students debated Amboy, January 30 and succeeded in winning a 2 to 1 victory. The members of both teams were now admitted into the National Forensic League. February 29, the negative met New Prague, winning a 3 to 0 victory, March 15 tl1e Mankato team. drawing the negative side again, met last year's championship team, Springfield. The critic judge decided in favor of the Mankato team, thereby declaring them the regional champions and giving Mankato High School the trophy, a silver cup. The state debate tournament was held at the University of Minnesota. Six regional championship teams clashed arguments. Mankato won the eri- tic's decision in a debate with Minneapolis South High and Rochester, debat- ing affirmatively, and scored a final unanimous victory on the negative side from Grand Rapids. winning three debates in thirty hours and capturing the Minneapolis Journal cup for temporary possession, as it must he won twice 'for permanent 13JSSt'SSl0ll, and the beautiful state cup forfthc Mankato 's trophy case. Each Mankato debater was also'given an individual gold medali Bernice Mickelson, llelen Knapp. and Gertrude Avery reached the climax of forensic achievement by the capture of the state championship in debate, without having a judge score against them. 1- ' ,'-1 A ...V-,X v f .1uP Y-in Q -.5 7 Q m in l at t X ,X 4, X A 2 gy , N 1 5116 3.-iibfyfck. , - A A.-.

Foster National H-Honor Society 5' lllil most eoveted distinetion in high school is the right of a student to say ho is a member of the National Honor Soeiety. the goal toward Zhi which many an inspiring' ineniher of the sehool works during' his four years of study. lt is right that every high sc-hool should have its elnhs and outside ae- tivities. It promotes individual personality and power, hut sometimes it seatters the interests of the sc-hool and makes the sehool duties seein second- ary. lt is not true. however, that honor students do not find their place in the l11ll'lj'-lJl11'ly lite after eollege. Millions ot honor students are taking the honor positions of the world. - High schools have felt that scholarship should he rewarded in some way. and so the National Honor Society was organized quite generally. The 'idea for this soeiety originated in the Phi Beta Kappa soeiety whit-h was organized among' our eolleges in 1776. The idea 'spread rapidly. and soon these organ- izations were being started in high schools all over the country. The Vali- fornia Seholarship Federation ot' thirty-tive high schools has reeently heen orgfaiiized, and in 1916 the Pro Merito Soeiety was established hy thirty or more head masters ot' western Massachusetts, and at the present time about seYent5--tive high schools have established ehapters. Beeause there was a desire to emphasize scholarship the different see- tions organized the National Honor Society. They felt, however, that sehol- arship was quite a narrow term, and that other eharaeteristies ought to he necessary in this society, though emphasizing always. scholarship. The eoin- 1lllf1'QQ in charge finally decided upon charaeter, leadership. seholarship, and service as the fundamental virtues inost worthy of eneonragernent. .Pupils who are eligible to eleetion to this soeiety are required to stand in the upper fourth of their respeetive elasses in seholarship. Not more than 15 per cent ot' any 12A elass may he eleeted to mernhership. it 3' If-I' i C Figs 5-Qitiri 'vi 'P ' S ,A -'4 '-x x 'X - . an 1-154212 The following interpretations of service, leadership, and character are usually followed in selecting members: Fi K l. Service is interpreted as: i C15 a willingness to render cheerfully and enthusiastically any service to the school whenever called upon. C25 a willingness to do thoroughly any assigned service in school pro- cedure or student government, such as acting as proetor, citizenship commit- teeman, or serving voluntarily on the staff of the school publication, etc. C35 a readiness to show courtesy to visitors by acting as guide, selling tickets, looking after concessions, acting as big brother or sister to under- classmen, or assisting stutdents behind in their- work. f45 a willingness to offer oneself as a representative of his class or School in interclass or interscholastic competition. - C55 a willingness to uphold scholarship and maintain a loyal school atti- tude. 1 C65 a willingness to render worthwhile service to the school, or through the school to the community. 2. Leadership is interpreted to mean: C15 demonstrating a degree of initiative in the classroom activities which leads to higher scholarship for all. C25 showing initiative in promoting any high school activities. C35 successfully holding school offices, committee chairmanships, and other positions of responsibility. C45 contributing ideas which may be incorporated in the civic life of the school. C55 exerting a type of leadership which actively and wholesomely in- tiuences toward a Hue leadership. El. A student may gain recognition in character: C15 by meeting his individual obligations to the school promptly and completely. ' C25 by demonstrating an honest spirit in his class work, and a spirit of cordiality and sincerity toward his teachers and student associates. C35 by actively helping to rid the schools of bad intiuences of environ- ment. C45 by upholding the ideals of the Christian organizations of the school whenever occasion affords opportunity. C55 by constantly demonstrating 'such qualities of personality, honesty, re- liability, promptness, achievement, and morality which are indispensable to the finest young manhood and young womanhood. The advantages of an Honor Society are very great. Students are anx- ious to win distinction and scholarship. National Honor Society members rank equally with athletics, and to be a member of the organization is the greatest honor possible in high school. il 'A' 3 . '- 'E we xif ' 7.111 mm'-F. XYishnick, A.

Duriufr the year which has 'ust ended the active 1 A Z' I f I amp Wires ot our school, working with the other groups of the eomnnnnty, have especially emphasized the second point, Htlive Service. No year has registered a finer reeord of work done with the true Camp Fire spirit. The year l927 was 'tTree Year in Camp Fire. This intluenced mueh ot' the work, and showed in the programs of Council Fires. in the Tree Census taken at Vamp Patterson and in the activities of individual groups. Une Camp Fire won the National Tree Honor. The Animal Grand Council of last year was made even more inspiring than usual by the presence of a large number of visiting Camp Fire girlsg three groups attending from St. Peter, two from Mapleton, and one from liapidan. Th1'ougrli the help of the .Kiwanis Club the Camp Fire Girls of Mankato had the honor of tornially opening Camp Patterson, spending a delig'l1tt'ul week there in July under the direction of Mrs. Murray Hawes, with Mrs. NV. A. Doerr supervising the dining' room. Archery, swimming. tennis, nature lore and hand craft made the days pass all too quickly. An informal re- port was later given to the Kiwanis Club at one of their Monday luneheons. Iligh school girls who assisted with this report were Mary Pugh, Ann Thomas, Emily Farnum and Marian Bateman. One of the local honors presented for work of the year shows as its em- blem the Arapaho symbol for mountains, or.dit'fieulties, combined with the symbol ot? achievement. This is given to the girls who took part in the historical pageant of the summer. Another honor is given for the Red Cross membership drive, when the girls secured over two hundred memberships.

LOUIS TODNEM lllfl Yell Club was organized originally for the sole purpose ot' pro- moting' and encouraging athletics in Mankato High Sehool but in reeent years inenibers have devoted much of their efforts to the aid- ing of other departmental produetions and contests. A lflarly in the fall the elub seleeted regulation pins. The design ehosen is like a. ininute megaphone with a red baekground and a silver 'tlllf' sym- bolizing the eolors of the sehool and the purpose of the organization. The new nleinbers were initiated the evening ot' November 3, 15127, in the high school Q-yinnasiuni. At the elose of the initiation eereinonies all the members enjoyed a ride out into the country, and the new members had the pleasure of trekking baek home. The Yell Club sponsored an unique magazine sale. The student body was divided into three groups called Tongs and eaeh Tong! was provided with il, eaptain. These various groups vied with eaeh other to see which could raise the most money by selling snbseriptions. Glenn L. Morris was brought, from the University of Minnesota on December seventh to deliver a lecture on Electricity. Despite the fact that a ragingg blizzard was staged that night the Club eleared about eighteen dollars. YVith the protits derived from these two undertakings, the Yell Club outfitted the basketball squad with sweat shirts in the sehool colors, searlet and white. One of the jitney liunehes of the year was sponsored by the Yell Club and about fifty dollars was added to the club treasury as a. result. A permanent committee eonsisting of 'Wlalter Steiner, Gertrude lied, Eugene Fowler and Maxine Gfrerer, were responsible for the arrangement and sueieess of the 'tpep assemblies held before each game of the basketball season. The Yell Club is at last one of the very strong' organizations of 'the 'Mankato lligh Sehool and this year the members have done very good work. GR 1 I 11 'xml 1 'il x Y, , Y. QW' X x . 1 A 1 .

To-wit: The great and only 'Skinney had ended an unprecedented Athletic Career when the U20 year ruling was written onto the docket. Cap- tain Freddie simulated a Prince of 'Wales over the Scholastic barriers. John lleever ditto. Harn had graduated. Tears prevent our further discourse on this unpleasant matter. However, 'twas not to be long. Old Tempus continued to do its fugit- ing and we soon began to sense a lost cause. Fairmont refused us a later date. VVe hoped to gain a bit of time-better to organize our unweildly forces, but they CFairmontD smelled our blood and would have it. We take tl1e field! What a field! And oh, what a team! We know our signals,-all three of them. But that is all. VVe see it will not be long now. It isnit! We cover our eyes. We exhort-we all but crumble in utter rout. 28-0, history tells us was the final score. We are dismayed and all but discouraged. Yet, out of the carnage of the previous week we gathered together the unbroken timber and rallied our forces for a final stand against Blue Earth, a fortnight away. What a strug- gle-what a struggle! At last the tide seems to turn and we emerge victors of a 0-0 score. Moral victors that is! Then came the biting North winds whose icy breath killed our little leaves and we knew that Mother Nature was wrapping herself in her warmest garb for the winter that was soon to come. lt came! And we knew the call was for basketball. A little more lusty call it was, than that call for football. A little more lusty? Not much! More the call of an adolescent roost- er! But they tiocked to the colors' these boys of the Scarlet. They tried--,but what a try! The feeble try of an overturned mud turtle! We grappled St. James. St. James would have their fun-and at our expense. Again old man Eligibility was having his tiling. But soon to use a split meta- phor, the rays of hope began to filter through an overcast basketball sky. Hope-hope--we live on hope! Be it so! Vile won! We lost! The Liady of Fortune flicked the ash from off her stogie and smiled or frowned as the spirits moved her. 'Twas at the tournament we saw her last. The chronicles tell us 'twould seem she was going to wreath her sordid face in smiles o'er the noble deeds of the Titan lads. They had hoped to win the day. She designed it not so! Even as old Nero jabbed his smudgy fist, thumbs downward, so did she! 'Twould seem in spite of dirty shirts worn long overtime and un- shaven beard and other lucky tokens well caressed and proven, she was not to be appeased. We had lost her favor! And e'en tho much water has flowed under the bridge since that cataclys- mic event, our wounded pride is still cankered with the pangs of defeat. lt cries out daily unto the mountain tops to turn and carry on. Prospects bright will rise again, and oh, Shades of Custer, give us victory or give us death! -Louis Todnem ,u ffiiq X '31 x V. 'K 'J gv 5 3 7 'nj y: 1 X .

COACH ILOUHS TUDNIEM Since 1923 Mankato high school has acquired an enviable prestige in athletics throughout the state. Teams bearing the Maroon and White have won championships on the gridiron, on the basketball floor, and in track and if-ld. Among our athletes who have graduated are several who have matriculated at various universities and colleges and have continued to earn fame for themselves and for Mankato High School by their outstanding activity in sports for their Alma Mater-all of which is a reaction from the training received in high school. Coincidental with the success of our athletes during the past few years is the fact that the same period marks the sojourn of Louis Todnem as director of physical education in Mankato and we attribute our achievements in fields of athletic endeavor largely to the admirable coaching of Mr. Todnem. Not only is the coach a moulder of champions but the wholesome influence of his personal sterling qualities of character and good sportsmanship are vividly reflected in his proteges. Actively interested in all school activities Uoach Todnem has become one of the most valuable members of thc faculty. CAIPTAHN GIHILBIERT lFCODWlLlEll2 Vlfhen Sam hung up his moleskins for the last time after the St. Peter game last fall he must have done so with a warm feeling of pride-and good reason did he have to nourish a little selfgratitication, for Sam has been playing regularly for Mankato High School ever since he came over from the Lincoln in 1925. Three seasons as a regular is enough in itself for anyone to brag about, but if the individual's play during that time h-as been conspicuous enough to win special recognition, then it also merits special praise and Sam has sure got his share coming. He responded rather reluctantly last September to his mates' demands that he become their new leader following the captain-elect's failure to scale the scholastic barriers and subsequent forfeiture of thcileadership. 'Sam, however, took over his new duties cheerfully and proceeded to run thc team handily all season in the dual capacity of quarterback and captain. His characteristic aggressivencss stood the team in good stead and served to arouse renewed vim in many a tight scrape. His hefty punting was timely and advantageous. His graduation leaves a vacancy that will be hard to till. CAlPTAlN:lElLlECT MIERRHTT MANNHNG Although Babe had only one seasonis work to his credit the com- mendable manner in which he had filled his half-back berth during that season was suiicient reason for his team-mates selecting him to lead them on the gridiron next fall. His election to the captaincy is mute evidence of the respect in which the fellows hold him and there is no shadow of a doubt but what their sincere attitude justly deserved. Babes value to the team is found in his ability to sweep around op- posing flanks, slipping through the eager arms of would-be tacklers like a greased eel. Open field work comes naturally to him, once past the line of scrimmage an insignificant matter of four or five tacklers between him and the goal posts proves to be of little worry to the fleet half-back. Babe's form improves with every game and as he has one more year left to practice his grid marathons, we are already cherishing hopes for a southern Minnesota championship with such a man leading a splendid team. if .

S4 ' W ' X ij X X ' g A Astounded at their capabilities, so strikingly revealed, the team re- acted in a manner revolutionary and tore through Sleepy Eye on the follow- ing Saturday for the first victory of the year. Many Key City fans followed the team to Sleepy Eye and were well repaid for their pains. The spectacular comeback having assumed form the Scarlets became an aggregation seemingly invincible. Featuring lXlanning's elusive end sweeps, Captain Fowleris stellar punting, and Smith's and Dethloff's powerful ef- fectiveness in the backticld, and Scales' and Cuddy's consistent play in the line the Scarlets met the Pillsbury Cadets, the next victims of the rejuvenated attack who fell a week later on the short end of a 28 to 6 score. The game played on the following Saturday is a memorable one. Albert Lea journeyed to Mankato to meet the aggressive Scarlcts. After a thrilling battle replete with superb football, in which neither team succeeded in scoring, the fracas ended in another tic-the third in as many years. Faribault and Owatonna were the Scarlets next adversaries, and fell, yielding to a savage offensive, in two decisive defeats ehalked up on succes- sive Saturdays. New Ulm was scheduled next, but forfeited on the grounds of non-interest and cold weather. Mankato played host to its traditional rival, St. Peter, in the annual Turkey Day Classic, which marked the end of the season. Before a re- cord-breaking crowd of three thousand spectators the Saints were tendered their sixth consecutive annual defeat. In spite of their inauspicious start the Todnemites closed their schedule with a 833W rating. Assistant Coach Ling Since Mr. Ling has been in Mankato he has taken over the responsibility of assistant football coach. Through his untiring efforts there has never been a year when the high school has not produced a second team capable of giving the varsity keen competition. Mr. Ling received his football training at Macalester' College. Before entering college he had never even seen a football game, but nothwithstanding, he developed into an excellent tackle and was captain in his senior year. His experience on the grid- iron has made him'a very efficient assis- tant. Faculty Manager Everson Mankato high school has been very for- tunate in having such an able man as Mr. Everson to handle the financial interests of the athletic department. Three years ago he accepted the position of faculty manager of athletics with a large debt outstanding against the association. At the present time this debt is practically cleared and in addition, Mankato is reputed to have some of the best equdpped high school teams in this section of the state. These facts alone reveal Mr. Everson's ability, although he does not receive the credit for his work that is due him. r Faculty lvlanagcr Evcrsen Assistant Coach Ling - 1 u 0 AW wifi 'im 1 'Zi' QQ '51 t 1 111l1'trW4FI.

'36 418 4. -1. W HQ X i 'IM 3lP The Basketball Season PPROXIMATELY forty men responded to Coach Todnem's call for tfgfgfg basketball candidates early in December. The more experienced players improved incredibly in practice and after a stretch of valu- ablc training during Christmas vacation the Coach prepared to match his pro- teges against a group of Alumni home for the holidays. Kato's first opposi- tion of the season was the varsity quint of 1927-the team which lost the re- gional championship in an upset, the alumni' a heavier, more experienced ag- gregation handing Mankato a 44 to 19 defeat. AWeakcncd by the loss of Deets and Ensticc and other important players through eligibility scrapes, the fel- lows. handicapped by weight and height, lost their first district contest in a bitter battle with St. James 14 to 9. As it' in compensation for their losses the Scarlets did the unexpected and vanquished Blue Earth and Mapleton the following Friday night. Deeisive victories over St. Peter, Madelia, Sleepy Eye, St. James and Garden City were the next order of affairs before the over confident reserves engaging Mapleton in a return joust started the squad in the other direction, and Windom and Faribault avenging year old losses managed a pair of Well earned triumphs. As a preliminary to the district departmental championship game be- tween Garden City and Minnesota Lake, Kato entertained St. Peter in a return contest and closing their schedule with a 15 to 10 victory over the Saints. March, 2 and 3 found the Todnemites at the district tournament playing their best to eliminate nine other championship contenders. After scuttling Mapleton's and Lake Crystal 's chances to visit the regionals, the Scarlets own ship was torpedoed by the Wintloin crew. Windom subdued Garden City in the finals for the title and Kato humbled Uomfrey in the consolation finals 36 to 6. li y, O x. .- , agfyseafig ffaz?2Lf:-eggs?-fkfeiigafga Qaptainwelect Willlliilksen Already pressing his famous predecessors, Brockmeyer and Deets, for high honors Cap- tain-elect Billy Williksen bids fair to achieve distinction and success with the basketball squad next year. Having a valuable batch of veterans re- I turning next season who will be used to constitute a nucleus about which the 1929 quint will be moulded from the remainder , of a squad of promising material, and as- sured of enthusiastic cooperation from these X l 5 players who will serve under him, Bill should . share our optimistic outlook for a winning ti 5 season. If things come to pass, that are hoped for, there will be three coveted tro- phies adorning the interior of our new cases K A a year hence, viz.- the district, the regional, and the state basketball cups. V His playing all season has been of the best and no mistake was made by his mates when captain, as none of the fine requlisites of leadership are lack- ing in Bill 's makeup. VVe are aiming only for the best and know that under their leader 's unswerving guidance the team will hit the mark! Captain-elect: Williksgn Captain Deets they elected him Captain Deets Anytime anyone mentions Mankato High School basketball the first person discussed in connection with the topic is Deever Deets, captain of the l928 quint and one of the best eourtmen ever to scintillate under the Maroon and Vtihite. The name Deets is to basketball what Smith is to eoughdrops, and Deever certainly lives up to his reputation. He was twice named forward on the all-district aggregation and was an all-regional player in 1927. There is no doubt in the minds of his friends that he would 'have been an all-state man if the team had succeeded in getting that far. Although handicapped from time to time by scholastic ditficulties Deets has successfully weathered the storms a11d his name will go down in high school annals as a basketball player not soon to be forgotten.

The week preceding spring vacation, Coach Todnem made ihis first appeal for men and a large number of promising candidates responded. However, there remained only three lettermen: Captain Broekmeyer, Har- land Vtfood, and Donald Whea.toii. On April 30 the season opened with a triangular meet between Man- kato Teachers College, Pillsbury Academy and Mankato High School. This was easily won by our well rounded team which scored points in all but one event. The Teachers College finished second, eleven points below ns. The following week the team won the Southern Minnesota Champion- ship for the seventh consecutive year. Mankato scored 30LQ points and was closely followed by Blue Earth with 23 markers. Wi11f1'ed Brockmeyer, Key City Captain, was the outstanding athlete of the meet, scoring twenty- three points and breaking the broad jump record. On May 1-ith the team was again victorious, winning the Carleton Invi- tation Meet at Northfield. This victory marked Kato's second triumph in this meet in as many years. Harland Wood broke the broad jump record, and Broekmeyer acquired further laurels by garnering eighteen points. After such a brilliant showing Kato's einder artists were entitled to win the state meet at the University of Minnesota. The redoubtable Skinny,' broke two records, placing first in four events. In spite of such versatile per- formance Mankato was forced to bow before her superiors and fell before the lithe athletes of Eveleth. ' In appreciation of their fine athletic records Harland Wood and Vtfinfred 'Rroekmeyer were awarded a trip to the National Field Meet at Chicago where Broekmeyer placed sixth in the half mile and low hurdles. . o fs 5 we 353 A x X I I N A 1 - Af ii-fffig-4545: QLSQQX' 1: 1 - llntrazrnnral Athletics Baskctballlll Cvpd at the Mankato High Qchool the athletic department has promoted an -X l inter-gym class basketball league for the past two years. In this way, it is possible for practically every boy who does not participate in some form of interscholastic athletics to take part in athletic competition. It has been estimated that fifty boys took part in this year's league. Com- ORDER to carry out more effectively the sports-for-all program E,-le . K X X . K Q 1 petition has always been keen and interest is at a high pitch throughout the contests. This year there were six teams entered in the league. At the end of the regular playing schedule, two teams, the Heldivers and the Comets, were 'tied for first place with one loss apiece. After a hard fought game in the play off the Heldivers won the championship for the 1927-1928 season. Other teams entered in this year-'s league were: the Goslings, Teals, Mudhens and Decoys. Kittcnballl Lrg HREE years ago a kittenball league was formed by Coach Todnem with membership consisting of a team from each of the various classes and the faculty. Although there had been little or no interest mani- fested in the game up to that time, it rapidly gained popularity and received fully as much interest as the intra-mural basketball league. The games were played after school hours on the Lincoln school field. A schedule was drawn up with each team playing every other team twice. The class of 1927 won the championship the first two years, but the third year after many hard fought and close games they were tied for the title by the class of '28. A series of three games was arranged by the coach. The tirst game was won by the Seniors and the second by the Juniors. In the tinal game after a poor start the Class of 1928 came from behind in the last inning and won the championship by a narrow margin. The class of 1928 is again likely to cop the title this year.

A 1 NE night as T wandered alone through the dim halls oflhlankato High School, ghosts of former days lurked in 'cornersp Something momen- tous seemed to be occurring within those very .walls. Strange sounds flled the air. I stole noisclessly up the stairs. At the door of A assembly, a fantastib sight met my eyes. Seated on th'e top of each desk was a eat. There were red eats, black eats, white eatsyall kinds of eats. One especially intelligent-looking pussy Wore shell' rimmed glasses. A string of pearls adorned a very beautiful black eat, while a pink bonnet with pink flowers on it sat upon the head of a tiny white eat. Seated on top of the desk on the platform was the biggest eat in the room. a great white one. He wore a maroon tam and sweater, with the numeral '28 on it. Recognizing him, I realized that I had come ufpon a meeting of all the Copy Cats that had ever lived in our high school. They had come with their families to the convention and the president was our own Copy Cat. Some of the pussies were grey and feeble with age. These were the Copy Cats of ages past. They had left the school 'building with their various classes. There were tiny kittens, the Copy Cats of ages to come. All had come to- gether before their president, Copy Cat '28 should have left the school. It was 'qhe who called the convention together and gave the opening address: To all Copy- Cats and Kitten Cats-Greetings: - It istindeed a privilege to stand here on this platform and note that so many ofhyou have responded to the Cat Call. We have gathered together .from all prowls of life. We have come from country barns and from city garbage cans, from basements, from beneath kitchen stoves, from on top of parlor sofa cushions, even from the North Pole. There is a great bond of unity that holds us together. We are all Copy Cats. For many years our great family has been assembling annually. The Cats have carefully raised their children as Cats of Mankato High School should. They have taught them to keep their eyes open in the dark, to wash Behind their ears, and always land on their feet. 'l3ut irow we have many problems before us. When we see these little Kits playing around us and realize that they are the coming Copy Cats, we must get 'together and face their problems for- them. ' Here is the first and greatest problem 5- the anti-eat complex in human bgings. In spite of all our efforts there are still people in this town that are hostile to our race. There are even some Seniors who did not send me cards wishing. m'e a Purr-feet Christmas, or pleading to be my Purr-petual Valen- tine'! We have one good friend in this building, Miss O'Donnell, a woman after myown heart.. She is a friend to all pussies. Let us all giye .her a howling Vote of thanks- ' Mee .... ro.. . . .wl Nec .... ro .... w! r 'T 1 ig. 4 . 'Fm G+: - i. 5 gage, . x t ti., .X GRE El 31 -- X Another serious problem which we must tackle with tooth and claw is the occupation of the field. Who is going to occupy the field of human affections, the cat or the dog? The position of dogs. has grown in recent years. Some people say a cat and dog can get along together under the same roof. This may be true, but friends, I ask you to notice that when they do get along under the same roof, in case of a battle it is always the cat who has to take to the roof! Some of the Seniors, even, have pet dogs. Nina Hockenbrock and her Shandygaff are just too heartbreaking! And Emily Farnum with her Jubilee! Even our good friend, Miss 0'Donnell, befriends Jubilee now and then. CA chorus of spits filled the roomj No, friends, cats are cats and dogs are dogs and need separate fields. I am so filled with tears at this point that I cannot continue. I am going to leave forever with the Class of '28, Farewell! Much paw clapping followed this masterpiece. The president spoke once more: Let us now sing the song of our .Alma Mater, 'Out All Night' My daughter, Miss 1928, will accompany us on a musical comb. But the Copy Cat from 1900, old and feeble, with his teeth gone, arose. He wore a stocking cap with a long tassel on it. His mind had wandered off on the subject of the f'Responsibilities of Kittins for World Peacef' He spoke to the tiny cats: '4Y0u kittens have entered a world filled with fiying fur and echoing with yowls of the vanquished. Will you submit longer to false ideals of the glory of battle given you by tattered-cared veterans, or will you use your own brains? Kittens of the world, it is up to you? As he warmed up to his subject, he wagged his head, and the tassel on his cap wagged too. It was very hard on the cats who sat in the front row. .All of a sudden one cat gave a leap and-oh, the cat's pajamas-he landed right on the old speaker's neck, and began batting that tasscl. In a. jiffy, the rest of the eats had joined him and every pussy was trying to bat that dangling thing. I had to leave immediately because I had a tassel on my hat, and I really was afraid to run into cat-astrophc. -J MWF 1-o li wxgffli . .2 xg 4 ,f A: ,Qf?fffjxff4ef:5-3si2l-f- 0 If fw I 1 Ill 6 -Q R' K 'ww Sm Kmo'R Dawson E-avgoz c. nw-dt SNOW- 4lX lf Qi 'SiN 33?- if MW ,HIW 1 Wt M jx ff Af fW!XSX H!

He reached in his pocket illltl after handing the boy a dime said, Keep the change my ladf' The boy bit the money, scowled at the chief and went on his way. Glancing through the pirate story he muttered to himself, MP1-etty good representation of the scene-few minor parts of course left out-- Well, well. This is what he read. UA large throng gathered on 7th Heaven Avenue late this afternoon to witness the reception of two suspicious-looking earthborn pirates, who had managed to evade the inunigrratiou laws and get by St. Peter, the gate keeper. They were swarthy looking' chaps with red bandanas on their heads. This fact cast a suspicious turn to the whole affair. They had knives in D P9 their belts, red sashes around their waists, and very evil faces-so it seemed to the onlookers. Chief Gabriel grasped both men but could hardly keep them from run- ning away. The person calling himself Louikris, trying his best to break loose, gasped continually. ''-have-few-announcements-make. Since the day was Sunday, it was necessary for the culprits to choose their respective churches, Harridekisa started for the Methodist headquar- ters, but Louikris couldn't decide between the Presbyterian and the Holy Roll- ers. ln the argument that ensued Harridekisa smashed Gabriel in the nose. Gabriel said, Leave a guy alone ean't you? They made so much dis- turbance that the two men were arrested on a charge of incompatibility. The court was a scene of much excitement the next Monday evening. ln fact a special harp ensemble arranged for that evening was postponed. The examination was as follows CExamination by liawyer Pair-a-dicel Q. Where were you at 8:00 o'cloek Saturday night? Cturning' to Har- ridekisal Answer yes or no. A. No. Q.

Now they had taught us to wash the back of our necks carefully every week Ztlld all this we missed fearfully when smuggled aboard the pirate ship. ln fact this very lack of utensils for washing the back of our necks so incensed us that we finally organized a mutiny between our two selves. , Harridekisa was more muscular than I, and when the show down came. he would have done credit to his ma and pa, who in his youth had trained his right upper cut. we were finally the conquerors of the ship, having beaten down twenty men with our bear fists. We were happy good pirates doing our daily dozen and hitting the deck with the scrub brush every day. Harridekisa used to gather statistics on the clouds, while I made out annoncements in the ship 's log. 'LWe thus were leading innocent happy lives harming no human soul. But one day all this was changed. According to my pal it was two and three- fourths minutes to seven one evening when he came climbing down the ropes every other one-down the up ropes at that-crying Out of 998 clouds 24 look very dangerous. The thunder liashed! The lightning crashed! The raindrops went under and the ship fell ! I l By this time Louikris had risen to his feet and was pacing dramatically up and down. But it came to pass that we two souls were saved and washed ashore clasping each other's hands. But-when we awoke, we found ourselves sur- rounded by a swarm of the most disreputable looking cannibals my eyes have ever fallen on. Mr. Pair-a-dice. you call those people poor pirates. How can they say that? They immediately crowded up to us yelling Supper, supper, supper! VVe said we would be glad to have something to eat so they escorted us to their dining place which was in the form of a clearing with a big black kettle in the middle. They immediately started to gather wood and make a fire. It was the greatest surprise of my life when they seized Harridekisa and actually squeezed him into the kettle. 1 was a little more relieved when he yelled out, See ya later-so long. I--I-can 't describe the rest-it was so horrible, there the narrator com- pletely broke down and had to be given smelling salts. The jury by this time was reduced to tears and had lost control entirely. Solomon had really awakened and the audience led by their yell leader, Georgebull, was beginning nine rahs for the pirates but kept on so long that it had to be called to order by the judge. . Louikris had finally recovered himself and was continuing. So you see when we arrived at the golden gate we expected a reception fitting for two such sufferers and what do we get, I ask yon?
