The luture changes in education may 1)e likened to the difference between the old country doctor and the modern specialized physician. Not many years ago a youth in America could graduate from high school, take the speci- fied course laid out for him in college, and graduate with a diploma which entitled him to ]iractice any type of medicine or surgery from the re- moval of tonsils to delicate brain operations. Today, the youth must pur- sue seven years of strenuous training, which includes every branch of medicine, after graduation from high school. In addition to this, he must practise for at least one year in a hospital as an apprentice. Here he may gain e :perience in all the channels of his chosen jirofession, or he may. as most young medical students of today do, choose one special l)ranch of medicine or surgery, and for the rest of his life, devote all his practice and study to this certain branch. The one general conclusion that can be drawn from the foregoing para- graph is that all trades and professions are becoming specialized, neces- sitating the training of tomorrow ' s Commander in one branch of his life ' s work. The ital question is. What is the cause of this change ; why is the country doctor being replaced by specialized physicians ; why. to be suc- cessful, must a youth limit his training to one special field? This question can be answered very simply by an illustration. Tn the era of the old country doctor, there were as many diseases, more epidemics, and as many dangers as there are today. However, little was known con- cerning the treatment and prevention of many of these diseases. The X- ray had not been discovered. The complex treatments, preventive meas- ures, rays, vitamins, etc.. had not l)een chanced upon as yet, and the old doc lost many cases which could have been saved today. With this lack of knowledge of specialized branches of medicine, the old-time physician could learn all there was to know about medicine in bis college course. Thus we see that the trend of civilization is toward a greater and better knowledge of our environment, making necessary specialists in every branch of science and art. Perhaps not many years from now. all capable boys and girls will undergo compulsory college education up to 21 years, as well as high school training. Many educators aver that this is not un- likely. P ut whatever may bap])en in the field of education in the future, one general conclusion can be stated — the day of the general practioner is over; the training of future Commanders will consist of a logical and carefully worked-out elementary education, an all-around enlightening secondary education, and a specialized, advanced, college education. 14 T H p: artisan W 35 Senior A Cabinh:t Harold Labriola, President I ' .ii.i.

A Commander must have those inspirational qualities with which he can lead his fellow men on to greater victories. You have assumed the role of Commanders most splendidly and have exhihited a true and loyal spirit in all undertakings. I sincerely helieve that you, the Commanders, have through your un- selfish efforts been of real benefit to Manual. o are now faced with the problem of making a way in this enigmatic world. I am sure that each of you will carry on in the same fashion which has so characterized the entire Commander Class in the past. Harold Labriola. Commander Class President CLASS HISTORY 53 THE HISTORY OF THE COMMANDER CLASS OF W ' 35 By Margaret Lamb On a cold wintery day in February. 1932, a group of four hundred timid yet enthusiastic BlO ' s entered the mighty portals of Manual Arts from various junior high schools. Now, in February. 1935. the time has come when we have completed our learning at Manual and must pass on to higher institutions of education. We are very reluctant in this, as our three years have endeared us greatly to our Alma Mater. Our first two years brought talent in many of our members which later helped us in choosing our class and student body officers and also proved our strength in the field of athletics. Harold Labriola first came in- to the limelight by being on the varsity basketball squad. Bill LeDuc and Fred May showed ability in football ; while Ned Jensen could be seen run- ning around the track. Such girls as Mary Charlotte Roach, Elinor John- son. June Fensler. Nancy Holme. Betty Bayley, Eleanor Giroux. Doris Keddie, and Helen Zesch showed signs of leadership. We were progressing splendidly when the long-to-be-remembered earthquake on March 10th disrupted our usual procedure. With the Man- ual buildings in an unsafe condition for classes, we gratefully accepted the kind invitation of Foshay Junior High School to share their accommoda- tions. During the summer Manual had been sufficiently repaired so that we could return and use some of the buildings during our A term. It was not long before a sweater committee, a color committee and a name committee were appointed and set to work. We were now making enthusiastic prep- arations for our Senior term. During a five week ' s wait to display our sweaters and name on Sen- ior Day. the time was spent in electing capable officers to lead the Com- mander Class and athletes to compete and help us win events against the Senior Ayes. Our class officers were elected after a lively campaign. Har- old Labriola was elected president ; Elinor Johnson and Fred May. Vice- presidents; Margaret Lamb, secretary; and John Wertin. treasurer. Due to the fact that it was necessary to split into two home rooms. Jimmy Ackerman and Mary Jo Davis acted as treasurer and secretary, respec- tively, in the second room. After many trying days, the money was collected for our sweaters by those ever dependable treasurers. Ackerman and Wertin. Adelphic Day had arrived and the Commanders in all their splendor marched on the field, to the surprise of everyone, in bright green sweaters. Their victory proved 54 T H E A R T I S A N W 3 5 their motto, To know is to command. After a few yells and songs under the supervision of Al Passy and Jerry Tidwell, the seniors were ready for the fray. The Senior A Class, under the capable leadership of Billy Coe brought their athletes upon the field; but their performers were totally eclipsed when Fred lay and Jimmy Ackerman produced thirty in- comparable muscle-men and speedsters. The Commanders got off to a slow start when their entries Horowitz and Dragna were nipped at the tape in the hundred yard dash by a senior A runner. We lost the second event of the day when that flashy relay team of Don Kelly, Moris Dragna, Ed Horowitz. Bud Kinnett. John Truax, and John Wertin were defeated by inches in a breath-taking race. The first races were no indication of the Commanders ' strength, however, for without being pressed, they won the next four events and the honor of being the first Senior B Class to de- feat their sujieriors. The outstanding performers of the day were Bob Campbell, Leslie Wigger. Bill LeDuc, and Jake Cohen. The day was made complete with both classes meeting in the Gym for a friendly hop, with waltz honors going to Doris Olson and Al Passy. The next great event was the Senior B dance, A])ril 20. With Har- old Labriola as host and Elinor Johnson making a charming hostess, this ])rom was pronounced the outstanding affair of the year. Our last social function as lowly seniors was the class ])icnic at .South Park. The entertainment of the afternoon included a baseball game between the boys and the girls, a tug-of-war, and a pie-tin race ; but the biggest event was when we gathered around Jimmy Ackerman and John Wertin in order to be served delicious hot dogs and ice cream. Our Senior B term gradually wended its way to a close, as many anxious hours were spent awaiting the result of the student body elec- tions. After a closely contested race, those selected for the Cabinet were: Fred May. president ; Elinor Johnson, and John Truax, girls and boys ' vice-presidents; June Fensler and Fremont Davis, girls ' and boys ' self- government presidents; Nancy Holme and Jimmy Ackerman, girls ' and boys ' judges; Doris Keddie, secretary; Bob Swift, editor; John Wertin. manager; Eleanor Giroux, girls ' league president; Don Kelly, A. B. S. president ; Leslie Wigger, major ; and Arthur Manella. scholarship presi- dent. SENIOR A Ciuided forward by such an efficient president as Harold Labriola and his cabinet, consisting of Mary Charlotte Roach and Bill LeDuc. vice-presidents; Margaret Lamb, secretary; and Dick Wilcox, treasurer, (jur class stood foremost in all school activities. CLASSHISTORY 55 Home room meetings were arranged for once a week. At these meet- ings plans were made for and by the class. The first social affair of the term was the class picnic on ( )ctol)er 11th. The outstanding event of the day was when Douglas Kellar nosed out Dewey Raski to win the watermelon eating contest. Bob Campbell also ])ut on an interesting performance as he beat Irwin Markowitz in the baby- bottle milk drinking contest. Ackerman and W ' ertin again ably officiated at the weiners. Senior day arrived and the Commanders prepared themselves for the oncoming Senior B ' s, who turned out to be the Vikings. We were ready to do or die. as we coveted the honor of being the first class to win in both the Senior B and Senior A term. With the fine work of such boys as Ed Horowitz, Ned Jensen, Handy Moore. John Wertin. Don Kelly and Jacob Cohen, our team marched on to victory and won the distinction of being the first class to win in both terms in twenty-four years. The score was 4 to 1. A great deal of credit goes to Jimmy Ackerman. who trained and managed the Commander team. The day was finished by a hop in the afternoon, exclusively for the two Senior Classes Football season was a huge success. Manual Arts took the City Championshi]) and the Commanders were able to claim such prominent men as Lawrence Kinnett, Bill LeDuc, and Sam Patterson. The class is also ])roud of her Manual Knights. These boys are : Arthur Manella, Harold Labriola, Fred May, Johnny Wertin. Leslie Wig- ger. Bob Swift. Fremont Davis, and Bill LeDuc. Gradually our Social life began to wend its way to a perfect ending. Our last dance was the class prom on December 7th. With Foster Gym bedecked in holly and other Christmas adornments. Harold Labriola and Mary Charlotte Roach again proved their outstanding ability in putting on a dance that was known as a commanding success. The Senior Reception is about all that remains to be spoken of in this bit of news concerning the Commander Class of 35. This affair was indeed delightful as are all Manual parties. A ha])py afternoon was enyoyed by both the faculty and seniors. Finally, our three years at Manual Arts had come to a close and we realized that now we must go out and face the world with its opportunities. The many happy experiences enjoyed at Manual have provided us all with a host of memories not soon to be forgotten, THE ARTISAN W ' 35 MEMORIAL By Dunald NiTTT Cold and silent, here I lie. Watching others i)assing hy. Life is o ' er, I am at rest. I never more will he depressed — Sorrow or care cannot reach me here, Here I ' ll wait without a fear. For resurrection ! On that glad day I ' ll meet my Saviour and hear him say — ' Well done, thy reward is nigh, at hand. Pass on to the City and take your stand Among the Angels and greet your friends We all pass on and thus life ends — On this sad earth, but a better life Awaits us, after all this strife — With you I can no longer stay, Goodbye, farewell, the debt I i)ay But shed no tears — I am at rest. I await vou all on mv Saviour ' s breast. 58 T H E A R T I S A N W 3 5 WHAT ARE ORGANIZATIONS FOR? By Sidney Silver Back in the days of prehistoric man. we find the lowest type of human, whose only associations were with his wife and children. His sole duty was to protect his family and provide them with food. Scientists have proved that, as long as man stayed separate from his fellows, progress was stagnant and slow. But of a sudden, man discovered he could live in harmony with his contemporaries if he made a strong attempt. And from that eventful day, when the first small group of families joined together to form the first tribe, the progress of civilization advanced with such rapid strides, compared to what it had before, that it has amazed modern historians. It was in this tribal atmosphere that life giving fire was discovered. Here it was that man discovered the bow and arrow, and all the rest of these phenoma, which seem so minor to us today, but were truly funda- mental to man ' s progress. Here it was, also, that new methods of warfare were discovered, but in an o])timistic article, this cataclysmic discovery should not be discussed. Thus by means of this classic example, we may discern the meaning of organization. Organizations in general do these things for us: They make us cognizant of natural leaders and leadership. They enable discoveries, inventions, or new ideas by any one member of the organization to be spread throughout a large group of people, rather than to be kept hidden, perhaps forever. They provide a means for intelligent discussion of any such ideas or discoveries above mentioned. They act as agencies through which these same ideas or discoveries may be put into effect to good advantage. Of course the above classification is merely one of many which may be under the same topic, but I believe it presents a rather clear example of the reasons why we have organizations. Now let us apply these principles that I have mentioned to Manual Arts organizations. Do they enable leaders and leadership to be recog- nized.- ' Of course! This point is conceded by even the most severe op- IJonents of the organizations. Many of our natural leaders would have no opportunity to exercise their original ideas were it not for an organi- zation ' s help. 60 THE ARTISAN W ' 35 TO THE COMMANDERS You have chosen to call yourselves Commanders. In this you are en- tirely safe as you are sure to receive a commission ; in fact, you have a commission now. You rememher the boast in the song, I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul. This is surely a considerable assignment for he that is slow to anger is better than the mighty ; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city. Greater opportunities and greater responsibilities await those who first demonstrate that they can command their own resources, control their tempers, direct their energies, and capitalize their abilities. The world has always looked for leaders and commanders. The fashions in comman- ders vary from age to age. Former ages dreaded and admired the great- est military commanders of the past, Alexander the Great, Genghis Khan, Tamerlane, and Napoleon. We are content to leave them in the pages of history. We would have none of their kind now. The present age is looking for commanders who can take the lead in technological, economic, political, and social rehabilitation. The need for superb commanders was never greater than at present. The oppor- tunity for service is un1)ounded in all walks of life. Service will be the cri- terion to which C(jmmanders of the ]M-esent and the future will be judged, Albert E. Wilson ( ) R G A N T Z A T T O N S 61 Q C 1 -. . .£ ft -«— -1 - - 62 T H E A R T I S A N W ' 3 5 THE PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE Manual. The time has come when we of the Senior Class must go our separ- ate ways. In leaving Manual Arts we take with us fond memories of good times spent here- We want you to know that it has certainly heen a pleasure to work for such a s])lendid student hody. You have cooperated to the fullest extent, and we appreciate it. As we go, our one desire is that you lend your cooperation and help to your new Student Body Cal)inet. Remember that the success of the school lies not alone in the hands of its officers, but in the hands of the students. No term can he a success without your support. You can either make or break Manual, and we know from past experience that you will put Manual on the top. On behalf of the cabinet I thank you for the opportunity you gave us to serve you, and for your cooperation and support.

Each member of the Manual Knights is chosen with the api)r()val of the faculty or of the organization he represents and with the approval of Dr. Wilson, who is the club ' s adviser. The Knights ' objective has been to foster a higher type (jf school spirit at Manual, to promote friendly relations with other city schools, and to develop a genuine self government among the undergraduates at ] Ianual. 74 THE ARTISAN W ' 35 MANUAL SQUIRES The Manual S(|uii-cs are composed of representatives of various school orj anizaticjns. Membership is based on scholarship, good citizen- ship, student and faculty approval. The Squires, in addition to their study of school and student prob- lems, try to assist the younger students. This is done through a New Stu- dent Committee. In the past, and in the ])resent. the Manual Squires have played an important part in school activity and leadership. This term there were eleven new memljers taken in. these were : Ray Hilson. Collins Jones. Tom Kennedy. Bill McBurnie. Byron Pederson. jimmy Roberts. Jim Slater. Rex Thomas, Jack Townsend. and Laurence Y eager. The officers are: Fred May. President; Douglas Doan. ' ice-Pres- ident ; John Wertin. Treasurer; Charles Christensen. Secretary; Joseph i ' otts.

This is the third term of the organization ' s history ; and has been the most successful. The club activities were several snapi v parties and trips. 16 THE ARTISAN W 3 5 A : THE COUNCIL 111 the past the council has been composed of homeroom presidents alone. This term due to the fact that the council must meet during both fifth and sixth periods, we have had difficulty in obtaining a large attendance. Because of this, the i)residents of all organizations have been included and have been active members. The council is the means by which the student l)ody is contacted. Another function of the council is to meet school prol)lems and offer a solution for them. The officers of the council are : Fred May, president ; Doris Keddie, secretary ; and Douglas Doan. treasurer. O R ( T A N T Z A T T () N S 17 MERIT BOARD An important, even a vital part of Manual ' s self-government system, is the Merit Board. This hoard is not a court but is an advisory unit and helps readjust both old and new students of Manual. After a student has twenty or more demerits, he is called before the board and an efifort is made to ascertain the reasons and if possible eliminate them. Each term the board advises and aids several hundred students. The board this term has handled almost one-third again as many cases as in former years. This increased influx of students before the l)oard is probably due to our present housing situation and privileges allowed because of it. The president is a Senior A and the vice-president is a Senior B, thus always having an experienced officer on the board. The boys ' and girls ' vice-presidents of the student body are ex-officio members. The officers for this term were: Fred May, chairman; and M. A. Hunt, vice-chairman ; Elinor Johnson and Johnny Truax completed the personnel of the board. Mention should be made of the splendid cooperation given the board by the members of the faculty who served as advisers, and Mrs. Zelah Marshall for her help, advice, and services as secretary. 78 THE ARTISAN W ' 3 5 THE BOYS ' COURT Under the Manual Arts ' system of real self-government each stu- dent is supposed to conduct himself so that no outside control is neces- sary. However, among so many students there are some who will not cooperate. So it is necessary to have a few regulations, to make arrests, and to give demerits. The procedure of the girls ' and boys ' courts is practically the same. The officers of a court are a judge, clerk, bailiff, sergeant-at-arms, defense attorney, and prosecuting attorney. Violators of school laws are summoned before the court, tried, and sentenced. The will of the student body is expressed directly in the court. The judge is elected by the student body and open court trials are held. Stu- dents of Manual are asked to cooperate with the court and respect its decisions. This is your court and it is pledged t(j do the best for you. ORGANIZATIONS 79 THE GIRLS ' COURT The Manual Arts self-government system with its girls ' and l)oys ' courts is one of the most liheral and unusual ever formed in a high school. Our system for self-government was one of the first organizations of its kind in the west, and schools all over the country have followed our ex- ample. The Girls ' court has not had as many cases as in previous years, hut this does not mean a decline in efficiency or importance. It does show that the girls of Manual are ahle to meet the responsihility of the increased lihertv during these unsettled times. This actual experience in citizenshi]) and democracy is a real privilege and one of which Manual should he very proud, 80 THE A R T I S A N W ' 3 5 THE MANUAL ARTS FACULTY Dr. Albert E.

We have all come to the conclusion, at one time or another, that the American people must l)e taught to use their after-work time to greater advantage, as industrial methods progress. I am not going to attempt to outline all the means by which we may make good use of our spare time. That classification alone would take many ])ages. I merely wish to point out that hobbies, large or small, are good things to be employed with, when we wish to use otherwise wasted minutes to good advantage. Collecting is the greatest hobby. Men today are gathering together everything from stamps to skulls. Many peo])le ask what will happen when everything has been amassed. Then, say the avid hobln ' ists. we will swap om ' collections. That is the attitude of all hobbyists. Xever Say Die. Microscojn . chemistry, magic, and biology are among the foremost hobbies of today. Card tricks, chess, and checkers take their place also among leading time-users. Many thousands of people of the United States find hoiu s of enjoyment in these and many other leisure time occupations. The reader might well ask. What has all this to do with clubs? Merely this — school clubs are the agencies through which hobbies and other means of employing leisure time can be cultivated. In the Natural History Club many a budding biologist has l)loomed in all his glory. In the Chess Club many a master mind has manipulated his way toward an enjoyable knowledge of the game. In the Chemistry Club many a young scientist has learned the rudiments of his future career. In the Motion Picture Appreciation Club, especially, do students learn to use their after school time to advantage. Each club in Manual has its partic- ular function, to teach its members an interesting way to spend their time. The importance of these school clubs as means of heightening the culture of the . merican people will be recognized even more in the future than it is now. First, the realization will come that the ])roblem of leisure time must be soKed if the shorter working day is to be em- ])loyed successfully. Secondly, hobbies will be recognized as a necessary factor in solving this problem. And finally, clubs like the ones now at Manual will be encouraged throughout the country, so that hobbyists may gather to compare their works and to discuss their ideas. To the present and future students oi Manual I say, Join a club and learn to use your spare time to your own and your fellowman ' s advantage. 84 THE ARTISAN W ' 35 btCi tTADJAL AS :)M StCQtT XQ L CLUB C L U 15 S 85 - kH SDAKilSU CLUB PQE-NCU CLUB GtDMAKl CLUB 86 THE ARTISAN W ' 35 THE CHEMISTRY CLUB This term the Chemistry club proved to he one of the most active and educational clubs of the school.

Spectatoritis. for the uninitiated, describes the ten- dency of the younger generation to sit back and cheer, while a few of their fellows fight for their Alma Mater in footba ll or any other sport. Those who moan over this su])])osed ailment entirely fail to consider the other side of the question. It was not many years ago that the most a youth used his muscles for was an occasional game of rugby or a fist fight. The day when regu- lated exercise was recognized should be hailed as a great day in his- tory. For from that day on. physical education began to be thought of as a continous upl)uilding, and not as an occasional broken leg obtained in playing rugby. Those who bemoan spectatoritis fail to comprehend the fact that only twenty-two students at one time can play in a football game, and that many of the rest have not the ability nor the desire to ])lay in the game. These moaners are out of date. They should have lived back in the days when students were not allowed to spend an hour a day ])laying football in a regulated manner. In those days, a student yelled for his team without the benefit of having played the game himself. Now- adays, a youth is al)le to play for a period during the school day. and then in the afternoon attend a football game and re ' el in the clean, hard play which he himself partici])ted in earlier in the day. This period of play which is placed so high in American education has done more in main- taining the health of the American youth than any other one factor. In it are incorporated ])ractice in every type of sport, physical exercise, unhampered play in the sun. periodic health examinations, corrective physical education, care of the teeth, and most important of all, a momen- tary relief from every day problems and studies. . 11 these things were lost to yesterday ' s boy. He had to be content with vacant lot exercises, played in uncomfortable clothes, and in un- suitable surroundings. Even enjoyment of interscholastic games was denied him because these games were as yet unrecognized as factors in bringing the physical standards of American youth up to a higher level. 94 T H E A R T I S A N W 3 5 COACHING STAFF Manual Arts High School is especially fortunate in having a coach- ing staff fully capal)le of producing the hest results from available mater- ial. The hest proof of the ability of a coach is the record of his teams, and our record for this year is one of which every one can be proud. Sid F. Foster: Coach Foster not only serves as head of the physical education department of Manual, l)ut also lends his support whenever possible in coaching and assisting various athletic squads throughout the year. Jaijics J. Blcwctt : Coach Blewett ' s record speaks for itself. Not only did he mould a green inexperienced squad into City Champions this year, but his elevens have always been a credit to Manual. During the past five years, all but one of Coach Blewett ' s squads were well up in the City League Standings, proving that the title of Maker of Cham])ions in the prep rank is rightfully his. Coach Blewett also handles the destinies of the Class B track squads. Charles Touey: Coach Toney can probably claim the honor of bring- ing more championships to Manual than any other coach. His Cross Country squad captured the City Championship this year, while the Track team also won first honors in the City last year. Coach Toney has yet to turn out a poor squad, in the track and field coaching. Coach Toney is also responsible for the great showing of the forward walls of the Toiler football teams as he is the line coach. James P. Armstrong : Coach Armstrong handles the destinies of the basketball teams, and can always be depended on to turn out a creditable five. He also guides the Class C team in its track endeavors. Arthur E. iniliams: Coach Williams was not blest with the best in materials this year, but still managed to present a worthy Class B football squad on the field this year. Coach Williams Gym teams have met with only one defeat in a long period of years, while his Class C basketball fives are generally championship contenders. Herbert F. LouyJieed : Coach Lougheed does not have the honor of turning out championshij:) Manual squads since the discontinuation of baseball, but in place, his duties are of great benefit to the boys of Manual. Each year he takes groups of physically deformed boys and aids in the developing of their bodies into strong healthy specimens of manhood.

The lone score came in the initial quarter when the Toilers took ad- vantage of a bad 14 yard kick of the Sentinels that went out of bounds on the home team ' s 27 yard stripe. At this point, Doyle Nave faded back and heaved a pass to Louis La Russo who scampered over the line with the winning markers. The Artisans presented a l)ig heavy squad on the field for their first practice affair, but clearly showed their lack of experience. The line was outcharged during the first half, but rose to the occasion in the last half to stop the Sentinels ' threatening advances. Individual honors for the day were shared l)y Big Jim Coulee of the Sentinels and Doyle Nave of the purple and gray. Coulee was the main cog in the successful split buck play that Inglewood used to good advantage, while Nave was about the whole show as far as the offensive was concerned. The remainder of the Toiler eleven played well for their first game under fire. [98] jgiair Hucjc hole opened in flie Beverly line TOILERS TRIPPED Manual, 6; Beverly. 13 A badly bruised and injured Toiler took the field against the Nor- mans in the final practice afifair of the year, and were handed a 13-6 de- feat for their only loss of the season. In an efifort to have his eleven in tip top shape for the opening game with Washington, a week hence. Coach Blewett started his second team against the heavier Beverly Hills squad. However the shocks could not cope with their weightier opponents, and most of the first stringers saw action during the greater ])ortion of the game. Beverly took advantage of two Artisan fumbles to score bo th of their touchdowns. In the first quarter, the Normans recovered a fumble on the Toilers ' 48 yard stripe, and marched the remaining distance on sustainerl gains by Peplow and McAndrew. Again in the third quarter, Beverly recovered a Toiler bobble on the Artisan 24 yard line, and Peplow and McAndrew alternated in carrying the ball into pay dirt for the second tally. The lone Toiler score came in the final period when a desperate pass from Nave to Slatter connected, and the lanky end raced over the goal for the purple and grey ' s only six digits. [99] ' W A ' az ' L- inakiiu one of !us hrilliaiit runs af aiitst Hol!yz . ' ood WASHINGTON WHITEWASHED Manual, 13; Washington, 0; Manual Arts made an impressive debut in the newly formed Southern League by conquering the Washington Generals to the tune of 13-0 in an exciting affair played on Wilson Field. The Toilers presented a much improved squad on the field and ex- ])erienced little trouble in downing the Generals. .Mthough they scented Washington blood in the first quarter by driving to their opponents ' 1 yard line, it was not until the second period that the Artisans went into the promised land. After the Toilers had worked deep into enemy territory on sustained gains by Nave and San- chez, the Bomber telegraphed a short pass to Slatter who crossed the line for six points. The Toilers started another sustained drive from midfield in the third quarter that resulted in the other score. Nave carried the ball over from the three yard stripe. The forward wall of the Blewettmen was particularly impressive in comparison with its playing of the two previous games. John Thomassin was again the outstanding lineman on the field, while Bill Le Due and Jim Slatter also proved themselves general nuisances to the Washington cause. Nave and Sanchez played their usual fine games doing practi- cally all of the ball packing, while Gerber showed to advantage with his line plunging. Danny Buccola proved himself a worthy General by giving the Artisans one big headache with his brilliant trij le threat work. [100] Dick Kiiuicy stops Woodclifj on return of punt FREMONT FOILED Manual. 7; Fremont, 0; Because Lady Luck smiled its way. Manual Arts remained in the un- defeated list by eeking out a 7-0 win over Fremont on Wilson Field. The Pathfinders fought on even terms with the Toilers throughout the contest, but lost to the Pdewett clan, when the Toilers capitalized a fum- bled punt into a touchdown during the final moments of the game. With figuratively seconds to play Nave punted to Francis, Fremont safety man who, in his anixety. hobbled the ball and alert McBurnie of the purple and grey fell on the ball on the six yard line. On third down. Nave plunged over from the two yard mark. He also converted. A fighting mad Pathfinder eleven almost came back after the Arti- san touchdown, and with a flashing aerial attack, marched down into the very shadows of the Manual goal posts. Nave intercepted a desperate last minute pass to stave off a possible tie. It was during the final half of this game that the Toilers found themselves for the first time this year. From this last half until the com- pletion of the season, the Artisans played the type of football that carried them to the Southern League and City Championships. Dennis Francis, who was the goat of the game, was really the out- standing player on the field with his fine running and passing. Georgie Hobson. Toth. Danskin. King, and Woodcliff also played fine games for the losers. [101] Nair rounds end ac ainst Poly POLY PUNISHED Manual, 13 ; Polytechnic, 7. Polytechnic ' s widely acclaimed football empire was smashed to bits by a rejuvenated Toiler eleven, who by playing their best game to date out- scored the Parrots 13-7. The initial digits came early in the second quarter when Doyle Nave climaxed a drive of 52 yards by plunging over from the one yard line. The touchdown march began on the Parrots ' 48 yard line, where Gerber in- tercepted one of the Emperor ' s bullet passes. Gerber and Nave alter- nated in carrying the pigskin to the promised land although a completed pass from Nave to Slatter for 17 yards aided the touchdown march a great deal. Doyle Nave was again indirectly responsible for the second Toiler touchdown. After the Bomber had carried the main burden of the for- ward marching into enemy territory he stepped back and telegraphed a short pass to Dick Kinney who fell over the goal. Doyle Nave ' s educated toe added the extra point to bring the score to 13-0. Poly was not through fighting in spite of the score against her. The Emperor began filling the ozone with passes and the Parrots be- gan to move. Starting on their own 20 yard line, Voyle Brennen ' s eleven marched the entire 80 yards in 5 plays. A 60 yard pass from Emperor Jones to his brother B. Jones features the drive. The lone score came on fourth down on a pass from Jones to Messina. [102] Toilers nah their man SPARTANS SQUELCHED Manual, 14; Huntington Park, 0. The final barrier in the path toward the Southern League Champion- ship was successfully hurdled by the pennant bound Manual Arts football squad, when they defeated the Spartans 14-0 in a game played on the loser ' s field. The victory gave the Artisans undisputed ownership of the coverted league championship as they were undefeated in league play. Led by Captain Doyle Nave, the Toilers opened the scoring early in the second period by marching eighty-three yards in eleven plays. The versatile Bomber and Ted Gerber. his running mate, couldn ' t be denied as they ripped the Spartans ' line to shreds. Gerber chalked up the six points on a plunge over center. Another sustained drive, this time for sixty-eight yards, culminated into another score late in the fourth quarter for the Toilers. With Nave and (Berber again alternating in packing the pigskin, Manual marched to the three yard stripe, from where Nave passed to Kinney for the final score. Nave converted after both touchdowns. A third purple and grey touchdown was ruled illegal when Nave ' s pass was caught beyond the end zone. Doyle Nave and Ted Gerber were outstanding in the Toiler Ijack- field, while the entire team functioned perfectly. Dick Kinney played a great game at end, although he played only half of the contest. Dick had been out most of the preceding games due to injuries, but made a grand comeback in this affair. [103] Don Doylc and Bill Mc Biirnie stop Cantor on return of the kickoff ROOSEVELT RUINED Manual. 27; Roosevelt, 7 A ])urple and gray clad Toiler bearing the big white No. 14 on his back joined in the expected duel of Doyle Nave and Izzy Cantor, and as a result Manual had a field day against the favored Roosevelt team by downing them 27-7 at Wrigley Field. Louis La Russo, heretofore unheralded halfback, proved to be just what the doctor ordered by snagging two of Nave ' s long passes for touchdowns, and personally intercepting one of Cantor ' s heaves and racing 70 yards for the third touchdown. The Toilers wasted little time in chalking up their first score. Taking the opening kickoff on their own 28 yard line. Manual Arts marched straight down the field for the touchdown. Nave. Gerber. and La Russo featured the attack that found Nave plunging over the goal from the three yard line. A few minutes later. La Russo intercepted the aforementioned pass, and witli six man interference outraced three roughriders for another .score. .At the start of the second quarter, LaRusso captured a long pass I [104] m Wr 91 ■ i Bud Kiiuu-n iiKihrs a Iwrd tackle on a Ronghridcr from Nave, and galloped thirty yards for a third touchdown. The entire pass and run combined was good for 56 yards. Although 20 points behind. Roosevelt failed to give up. Izzy Cantor and his mates continually threatened the Toilers ' supremacy by driving deep into the Artisans ' territory, only to lose the ball on an interception or fumbles. However, late in the second period. Roosevelt wouldn ' t be denied, and they scored their only touchdown. With Cantor leading the way, the Roughriders marched to the Toilers ' six yard stripe from where Izzy flipped a short pass to Pivaroff for the tally. The final Artisan score came in the last quarter, when Nave heaved a long pass to La Russo who made a circus catch of the ball in the end zone for the fourth touchdown. The team as a whole played excellent ball, and singling out the individual seems almost unfair. However, aside from Nave and La Russo, McLaughlin and Kinney at the ends, and Don Doyle at tackle were particularly outstanding. John Scolinos and John Thomassin were human powerhouses on the defense, while LeDuc and McBurnie played their best games to date. Izzy Cantor was a team in himself. His hard running, high stepping style, was at times unstoppable, and the Rooseveltian certainly ranks as one of the outstanding preps of this or any other year.

From the opening few minutes of the game when Manual Arts marched S2 yards to a score following the opening kickoff, the final result was never in doubt. Taking the ball on its own 48 yard marker the Artisan ball toters got busy, and made quick work of advancing the pigskin to the Redshirts ' 27 yard line. The famous passing com- bination of Nave to La Russo took care of the remaining yards on a per- fect pass to glue fingered Louie. Nave converted. The second score came indirectly as the result of a coffin corner kick of Doyle Nave ' s that went out of bounds on the five yard stripe. Sutherland of Hollywood kicked to Nave who took the ball on the 35 yard line and raced down the sidelines to the 13 yard stripe. Two plays later, the unstoppable bomber cut back over tackle and crossed the goal standing up. He again converted. The last touchdown was made in the fourth quarter, and was started when Scolinos intercepted Seiling ' s pass on the 50 yard line. Completed passes to Kinney and Kinnett plus runs by Gerber and Nave brought the ball to the seven yard line, from where Doyle Nave made his last score for Manual, [106] Thomassiii ready to clear the zmy for Nave Nave ended his football career at Manual by playing his greatest game. His ])assing, running, and kicking was par excellance, while on defense, he was impregnable. The applause given the bomber as he left the tussle, by some 25,000 spectators was one of the greatest given a prep star in recent years. Biil LeDuc, Ted Gerber, Bud Kinnett, Dick Kinney, and Sam Pat- terson were the others that played their last and greatest game. LeDuc and Kinney on the line particularly came into their own with out- standing work. Bud Kinnett, holding down the unheralded position of (|uarterback. continued to call signals perfectly, block to perfection, and lend inspir- ation to the entire scjuad. Ted Gerber also ended his career in a blaze of glory. His hard charging plunges ripped the Sheiks to shreds. Sam Patterson at center was also outstanding on defense. Such stars of next year as Louie La Russo, John Scolinos, John Thomassin, Don Doyle, Jim Slatter, Bill McBurnie, and Don McLaughlin were all champions for the Toilers. The playing of each individual had a direct bearing on the success of the team this year. For the Sheiks, Hal Seiling and Mel Melindez carried the heavy burden of offense. On frequent occasions, these two ball carriers ])roke away for long gains. Halverson and Kyzivat in the line were the main- stays of the Sheiks.

Carnival held November 28. In keep- ing the Toilers touchdownless, Fairfax preserved the 39 to 13 lead rung up by the preceding Northern schools, which included the combined ef- forts of Belmont, San Fernando, Eagle Rock. Beverly Hills, and Poly. The honor of the South was upheld by Jordan, South Gate, Gar- dena. Hunting Park. Torrance and Manual, but could not keep up with the terrific pace set by the Unionists. Fairfax took the play away from the Artisans in the early part of the quarter when they twice threatened to score. However the alert Toilers staved off the enemy marches, and were beginning to go as the game ended. A crowd of 75.000 i ' )rep football enthusiasts saw the game.

Le Due seemed to find himself when he was moved from tackle to guard. He served three ears on the team. Ted Gerbev. Teddy was noted for his terrific line plung- ing and great defensive work. He came to his own about mid- season, and played 1:)ang up ball thereafter. He also completed three years on the squad. Saui Patterson. Sam was alternate center with Scolinos.

This was his second year on the squad and he ' ll be back next grid season. Bill McBurmc. Bill was a steady, reliable player throughout the season. He was responsible in opening holes for the backs to gain through. He was particularly outstanding as the hero in the Fremont game.

He hit his stride in the Huntington Park game after he had been out of the early season due to injury. He played ex- ceptionally fine ball in the last two playoff games. Annando Suiiclicc. Little Armando was a fast and shifty fulll)ack. Although he was the lightest man on the squad, he al- ways turned in good games. San- chez alternated with Gerber at the fullback post during the season. He will be back next sea- son. Don Doyle. Don rated a l osition on many of the All City selections, being particu- larily impressive in the last two playoff games. He was very in- strumental in the large gains made off tackle by the Toilers. He too will answer the roll call next football season. A T II L E T 1 C S 113 Louis Iai h ' usso. Louie was the second tenth ;nuler to make the team.

Bud was per- fect in his signal calling. He was also a great inspiration to every member on the squad because of his aggressive spirit. Bud was also an excellent blocker and steady on defense.

Coaches Tent and Mason assemhled a creditahle team that concluded their schedule only six points away from the championship. In the matter of scoring, the Toiler midgets outscored their rivals eight to one, with 98 points to 12 for the opposition. The C squad opened their season with impressive wins over Molly- wood and Venice hy scoring 33-0 and 26-0 respectively. Perhaps it was overconfidence, hut Manual ' s mighty midgets weren ' t so mighty when (larfield eked out a flimsy six point victory in the third league game.

Hashiguchi and Erickson took over Saito ' s and Kinoshita ' s positions at half and end respectively when the latter were injured. YELL LEADERS The task of keeping the school spirit in step with the championship march of the Toiler football eleven was well handled by the yell leaders this year. Dick Clatworthy, head yell leader ; and Doug Doan and Bob Coyle. assistants, and Fritz Kennedy, alternate, kept up enthusiasm among the students throughout the year, and deserve their share of the credit for the success of the Toilers in athletic fields this vear. 118 THE A R T I S A N W CLASS B FOOTBALL Class B football reached a low el)b this year when the lightweight squad managed to win only one game out of the scheduled six. Bad luck seemed to follow the squad throughout the season ]:)lus their inal)ility to move inside their opponents 10 yard line. In most of its tussles, the Class 1) team held its own or outplayed the rivals only to meet defeat through some break of the game. The squad opened its season with an impressive victory over Wash- ington 12-7. . fter this game, the team lost its scoring punch in four straight games in which they failed to register a point. Fremont, Poly. Huntington Park, and Belmont eked out one touchdown wins over the Toilers. In the closing game of the season, a makeshift Artisan eleven pushed over two touchdowns , only to have Hamilton score four and win 26—14. The backfield of Bilson at quarter, Sherrick and Nishita at halfl)acks. and Nakahara compared well with the best in the city. On the line Maida and McConnel at end. Peggs and Schroeder at tackles.

From the very start the whole spirit of the men and officers was one of perfect C(jor(linati(jn and mutual understanding. In short it mav he said that the high type of training and standards of efficiency set up hv this terms leaders makes honor school rating almost a sure thing. The cadet corps is headed by Major William R. Wilson, assistant professor of military science and tactics. It is the Majors ' duty to make all promotions and appointments throughout the term and in general to supervise all training. The student commander of the Unit this term has been Leslie Wigger and he has endeavored to set up a smooth running military organization. It has been his desire to lay a good solid foundation for the coming honor school inspection. Whatever success he may have attained has been due to the most efficient and proficient group of supporting officers that has been together at one time in Manual ' s Army for many years. A few of the achievements that have been accomplished by this regime are the installation of the flag pole in front of the military head(|uarters ; the new glassed-in bulletin board, made by Cadet Major Leslie Wigger, Captain Lebold. and Lieutenant Ellis; and a personnel file compiled, this file con- taining a three years record of each man ' s stay in the Unit. Some of the activities that were indulged in by the Cadets of W ' 35 were the placement of Cadet officers in B-10 homerooms to help the adviser in orienting the new students to the school routine ; the detailing of a large s(|uad of men to preserve order at the football games, known as M.P. ' s; and the Armistice Day demonstrations of which the Unit is so proud. The city wide banquet was a great success and all of the high schools in the city that have military training were represented by their Cadet officers. Putting on one of the best Military Balls in several years was not one of the least achievments of the term. Amidst a scene of Christ- mas cheer the cadets danced together, officers and men on absolutely ecjual basis. Truly this affair was one of dazzling brilliance and out- standing charm. The music was furnished by Bob Kaplin and his orches- tra, and all in all this dance was one which left nothing to be desired in the hearts of the cadets and their fair ladies. As a completion of a marvelous term of keen enjoyment of their work came trophy day in which all companies, platoons, and squads com- pete for highest honors. Trulv W ' 35 has been successful. 1 11 m HBtH a is ■ f 3 1 1 1 I m m m . wm m  i ARTISAN W 3 5 Cadet Major Leslie Wigger Major Wilson Sergeant Litler Capt. Duncan Capt. Ford Capt. Yeager Lt.

The villagers were the usual type of fisherfolk — hrawny. strong pi])e-smoking men. and huxom women with hands rough and calloused from mending nets. Wild children with uncomhed hair and firm, lithe hodies ran surefooted across the sands and splashed in the clear waters of the sea. The men left in the cold, grey dawn and returned home ahout sundown, their nets full of the living treasure of the deep. They liverl even, unworried lives, minding neither the storms nor the calms — content to depend on their hshing skill for their livelihood. Somewhat su]jerstitious, these good ])eople stood in certain awe of Sand) ' Cove, and its one lone inhahitant — a woman. Tall and gaunt she was, with long white hair and eyes which continually searched the sea seeking for something, .someone that never came to her. She walked with the easy swinging stride of one who had never had her feet encased in leather, hody erect and head held high. In spite of her nohle carriage there was a certain hopelessness about her. Something that spoke of dreams never fulfilled, of something lacking in her lonely life. For what was she waiting, praying, hoping The fisherfolk seemingly paid little attention to her. Few had ever seen the inside of her hut. though all had seen the figurehead silhouetted against her window. Head and arms flung back, hair streaming, as wild and as gallant as when she left Boston Harl)or thirty years before riding free and high on the ])row of her ship. X arious surmises and wild rumors circulated cor.cerning the image, but few, if any came near the truth. The deacon was quoted as saying that it was her idol to whom she prayed. Perha]xs he was right after all. ' : ' ■ A tall, blonde young man stood at the wheel of a ship steering her out of Boston Harbor. He was straight and strong with a passionate love for the sea bequeathed him by sturdy Norwegian parents. Eric was born on his ship ; he loved her every plank and spar ; sailors had been his teachers and the ocean and sky his worlds. But of it all he loved best the figurehead on the prow. She bufifeted the wildest tempests, tranquil and unafraid she guided the boat to safe anchorage. Eric had three great loves — his parents, the figurehead, and last but by no means least, an Irish girl named I !ileen. S T O R Y A N D ' I-: R S E 131 She was sitting on the dock now watching the ship glide away carrying her Eric with it, and she kicked a piHng wrathfully with a rough hare foot. The Saints take care of ye — ye sea-loving fool ! then her red head went down on her calico covered knees and she hurst into a flood of tears. Oh. go away, and leave me lonely to meself. Take yure old ship, make love to the figurehead. I ' m thinkin ' her heart won ' t he so easy to hreak. Killed, me father was by the ocean and me mither dyin now for homesickness of dear ould Ireland, hut ye ' ll go too. Oh, God. how kin ye be so cruel? The poor girl had a right to c(jmplain. The sea had claimed her father, and her mother was slipping away longing for Irish soil, and now to see her lover sail away called by some irresistible force, stronger even than her love made her rebel against Fate. She couldn ' t understand. How could he want to leave her? How could he love the sea more than her? She had an unreasonable, inexplicable hatred for the figurehead. Eileen, somehow felt that the defenseless image was to blame for Eric choosing the life he had, instead of staying with her. Many a time she had shaken her fist at the carven girl and called her all the dreadful names she could think of. and always she asked. Why must he go? Ah, little Irish lassie, you ' ll never understand. He comes of the same people as Eric the Red and Lief the Lucky ; not even your love will keep him from the only happy existence possible for him. Would you hold him back? He dreams of taking you with him. of having you by his side to be his mate and companion. Ireland and Norway can ' t agree. Your Eric could never love the green of Erin and you could never love the blue of old Atlantis, so bid your sweetheart goodbye again be- fore he is gone forever. She walked the lagging steps toward her mother ' s cottage — tall, lithe, graceful and strong. She turned and watched the ship ' s sails dis- appear into the mist. Then stretching her arms longin ly seaward she called softly — Goodbye Eric — please to be rememberin ' I still love ye. Years passed and Eileen, half crazy because her lover didn ' t return to her, liegan a search up and down the New England coast. From town to town she wandered seeking news of Eric Johansen. No one had seen him — his ship was reported missing, so after ten bitter years she gave up, and finding a small uninhabited shack in a secluded cove, she lived there. Thirtv years she stayed, and more, unloved by the rest of the world and nursed her grief. And then one night when a fierce storm was lashing and beating the Atlantic coast she felt hope return to her. In the candle-lit gloom of her cabin luleen saw Eric standing as he had stood that day so long 132 THE ARTI S A N W ' 35 before when he had sailed away from her. She sat as if turned to stone, afraid to move lest she frighten away the Presence. Then a cold wind blew open the door, the candle flickered and went out, and Eric was gone. The next morning. Eileen, as usual after a storm, gathered drift- wood. Up and down the beach she went, picking up the rough, uneven sticks tossed in l)y the sea in its hours of tempest. Suddenly she stopped and put her hand to her throat — what was it she saw there lying in a mass of sea weed? The figurehead! She knelt beside it, roughened hands clenched tightly together. Her eyes filled with tears, with tears at the memories that flooded back to her. Eric, she whispered, ' Eric, you sent it — ye still love me? Oh Eric! and she laid her tired faithful old head down on the figureliead ' s unsympathetic shoulder and cried. All the heartache, all the lonely years of waiting lost their l)itterness. Eric had loved the hated figurehead, so Eileen would love it for his sake. She dragged it up to her hut, and there it remained, a reminder of her lost romance. But Eric never seemed so far away again. An exclusive yacht sailed up the Atlantic seaboard lazily pursuing its way amon gst the bays and inlets of the irregular coastline. On deck was seated a small, withered little old man with black, beetling brows and a walrus mustache. He rapped on the floor imperatively with his cane. Olaf ! Olaf ! Quit your infernal ]:)ainting and come here! The young man regretfully wiped his hands on his smock and walked easily over to Mr. Grayson. He was tall and blonde with a suggestion of potential ])ower in his mighty limbs. The artists smock seemed oddly out of place on his massive frame. He ran his fingers through his yellow hair and sat down on the deck rail. You called, sir? ■ ' You know damned well I called ! retorted the fierce little man. e ' re putting in here — there ' s a fairly decent hotel in the village, and I want to get off this darned ocean — no place for a respectable human being. I love it, sir Olaf looked out over the ocean with the far-seeing gaze of the born sailor. Hum])h, yes, I su])pose ! Tell cap to ])ut into port here. Hurry, don ' t stand there like a fool ! and u]) he got, staggered across the deck muttering to himself. Good boy — could lick any man I ever saw — and he wastes his time painting — drat his hide! and a twinge of rheuma- tism brought forth a torrent of words calculated to shame a sailor past expression. STORY AND ' I : R S E 133 Olaf had been strangiy preoccupied of late. Whenever he saw the ocean vague memories and supressed desires asserted themselves. Some- thing he had inherited from his father probably. ( )h, well, he ' d better take up shijiping to please Dad Grayson — tough old bird, but awfully good to him. (_)h. captain — Mr. Grayson wants to i ut in here. Thinks the sea to rough for him. He plans to stay ashore overnight at least. ' ery well. Mr. Johansen, and the ca])tain left to give the order. The next morning ( )laf awoke early, and dressing hastily slij ped downstairs, and ran out to the water front. The sun hadn ' t come up, and the cold, bleak dawn was forbidding rather than inviting. A sandpiper scurried along the beach — Lonely little devil. Wonder where he lives? Has a wife and family, maybe. Dad used to love them, reminded him of someone he knew. He climbed over a pile of rocks and stopped in sheer amazement. There w ith faded green dress tucked up. ankle deep in water stood Eileen digging for crabs. Not exactly a romantic nor inspiring figure, but all the artist in ( )laf longed to paint her as she stood. Good morning, ma ' am. he said approaching her. Good mornin ' yerself. she replied shortly in her broad Irish brogue. She turned and looked him full in the face. She turned pale and took a lialf step toward him. Who be ye? she whispered hoarsly rising to her full height. Olaf Johansen. ma ' am, an artist. I ' d love to paint your place here if— Johansen, ye said — yure shure it ' s Johansen? Why yes. I.... Who was your father? Something forced Olaf to answer A sea captain — Eric Johansen. The woman ' s stricken face grew stony cold, and her voice was flat and emotionless when she sjioke. And yure mither? Mary Svensen, ma ' am, she died, but if I may ask — The woman cut him short. I ' m Eileen O ' Reilly — ever heerd tell o ' me? Olaf thought a moment. The name certainly wasn ' t strange to him. Queer old woman, must have been beautiful once. Eileen motioned him up the sand to her shack. Seeing he was expected to follow, he entered after her and found himself in a room that evidently served as her en- tire living quarters. In the corner facing her bed stood the figurehead as familiar to him as his own face — a ghost out of his childhood. Did ye iver see that before? She waved towards the statue; a hopeless gesture that made Olaf pity her for some unknown sorrow that she was keeping in her heart. 134 THEARTISANW ' 35 Eric brought it to me one night in a storm, she said, a world of ten- derness in her face. I thought ye loved me. Eric, she seemed to forget her visitor, but seems that I wasn ' t so dear to ye after all. She turned slowly, strangely old and tired, and her voice was gentle. So yure his son. Ye look verv much like him. She touched his hand. Did he iver speak o ' me? Of a sudden everything was clear to Eric Olaf. So this was the red- headed girl his father had spoken of so often. And she had waited for him all this time. His throat tightened curiously and when he spoke his voice was husky. If you are Eileen O ' Reilly I guess I can tell you. My father died when I was ten. ma ' am but Eve often heard him talk of you. He always loved you — looked for you for twelve years and finally gave you up as lost. My mother died when I was born. When father died, his voice was low, he called for you. Sure yure certain it was me he called and not his wife? She was oddly subdued, yet eager. I knew ye loved me, Eric, and I love you. Good bye lad, thanks fer comin ' to me. There was a command in her voice, so without a word Oiaf walked out the door and back to his hotel. Eileen watched this son of her lover disappear over the rocks. Ye looked for me, Eric, ye loved me ' till ye died, and I love ye still. Eileen, in the years since her lover ' s departure, had changed. She had lost her fire and zest for life. The old Eileen would have told Olaf to go to the divil but she had seen in him, her yellow ' haired sweetheart returned to her after years of waiting. It was the beauty of a woman ' s love, un- changed, unaltered through the years, able to love his son, born of another woman, because he had loved her to the end. A beautiful, all-forgiving love. There is nothing left now. Eileen died soon after and the villagers buried her in the churchyard. They split the figurehead up for firewood, but over the fireplace in Olaf Johansen ' s home there hangs a picture of a woman with her arms stretched to the sea, and a figure lying at her feet, washed in by the incoming tide. STORY AND VKRSE 135 loth Grade Prize Winner THE LONE PINE By Jack Bissell Beside a l)al)bling l rook so cool and clear, Stood a tall pine, its body scarred and sere. Enjm distant peak I saw the lonely tree. And felt it earnestly beckoned to me. Down the mountain I strode and crossed the stream, I )und my way to the place that afar I had seen. Doffed my hat to a hero, majestic, forlorn. Sole survivor of age, and of fire and storm. V ' aliantly had a noble life struggled there. Yet I could not help wondering whoever would care 136 THE ARTISAN W 3 5 AMATEUR RADIO Bv Melvix V ' ittl-m Amateur radiu operation is one of the most interesting of hobbies. It is broad in its scope and all the unexpected things which happen are new adventures. A ' Radio Amateur is a person who has chosen radio as a hobby and has his own station. The stations operate on short-waves which cannot be heard on an ordinary broadcast receiver. Most amateurs build their own stations and communicate with each other in much the same way as you would talk to a friend over the telephone. All amateurs must have a license and a call letter before they can le- gally put their stations on the air. These licenses are issued free of charge, the only qualifications are that a person must be an American citizen and that he pass an examination given by the Federal Commu nications Com- mission. The examination requires that you be able to send and receive code at a speed of ten words a minute as well as to have an understanding of simple radio theory and a knowledge of the laws and regulations governing radio transmission. When the examination has been passed, you will receive a call letter which is to be used to identify you on the air. ' Amateur Radio ' exists all over the world and is not limited to the United States. International ])refixes have been designated for each STORY AND V ERSE 137 country, that is, all amateur stations in the United States will have a W for the first letter of their call letter, Enti land will have a (j, and |a]jan f. and so on. Some countries will ha e two letters for their prefix, for instance. New Zealand call letters will all heyin with ZL and Australia has ' A ' K for their prefix. In this way one can always tell what country he is hearing. In a similar way the United States is divided U]) into nine districts, each one having its prefix, so that one can tell what part of the United States he is listening to hy the call letter. Since all stations in this country must have a W prefix, numbers are used to follow the W. For example the prefix for the first district would be Wl. W 2 for the second, and so on for the nine districts. By knowing what states are included in each district one can tell what part of the country is being heard. For instance, the prefix for California is V6. The sixth district consists of Arizona, California, Nevada, iuid Utah, so that when you hear a station whose call is prefixed by ' 6. you know it is from one of these four states. Some examples of call letters would be W6HMO; ' V6LBA : etc. It may have sounded funny when I said that by listening to the call letter you could tell what country you are listening to. Most people who have not used short-waves very seldom receive a station outside the United States, but with short-waves very great distances can be picked up. As I said at first, these amateur stations operate on short-wave and, there- fore, can travel a long way with very low power, in fact, a low power transmitter of v O or 40 watts can be heard clear around the world. In my own experience I have never used power that exceeded 50 watts and so far I have been able to communicate with 13 countries, and 4 continents. Some of these amateur stations use what is known as a jihone transmitter, which uses a microphone and the voice is transmitted but the larger majority of the stations use code or what is known as c. w. A phone station is operated much like a telephone and the operator merely talks through a microphone just like broadcasting stations you are fami- liar with. The o])erator of a c. w. , or code station, uses a key to make dots and dashes that go out (jver the air. It is much slower to talk by code because in doing so you must spell each word out and send it letter by letter in code. By leaving a longer space between letters, words can be spaced so that the fellow receiving will know when one word is finished and when the next one begins. In spelling a word, it is often abbreviated so th t it will be shorter and quicker to send. To do this, some letters are left out of the word or in some cases a letter will be substituted for two letters. Some examples of abbreviating would be gud for good; wl for well or will ; tnx for thanks ; r for are ; u for you and many others. At first these are confusing, but after a little practice it becomes auto- 138 T H E ARTISAN W 3 5 maticallv, in fact tf)o automatically, l)ecause after I have been si)elling that way on the air, I find mysdf si)elling- that way where correct spelling should be used. The code is international, that is the character for a is the same whether it is in English, French, Spanish or any other foreign language. The only difficulty in talking with foreign countries is speaking their languages. To overcome this difficulty there are some international abbreviations called O signals, so that two foreign fellows speaking different languages can understand each other. Often times an amateur in America would have a hard time understanding an amateur from a for- eign country if it were not for these Q signals. To illustrate some, QRK. are you receiving me well? QSB means your signals fade; QRX means wait or stand by ; QRZ means by whom am I being called ? There are about 65 of these abbreviations so that by their use nearly anything can be said. In this way international conversation can be carried out. Most stations have what is known as a QSL card. This card is just a small card about the size of a post card that they send to a station that they have talked to. to verify their contact. For example, one of my QSL cards would have my call letter jjrominently displayed on it. with my name, ad- dress, town and state. When I contact a distant station and wish to have a verification of the contact, I can request that he send me a card. I will also send him one of my cards on which I put the date of our contact as well as a report on how loud his signals were here in Los Angeles and a brief description of my station. While I am talking to a fellow if I want his card I will say pse qsl. Pse in this case, is the abbreviation of please and qsl means, send me a card or any form of acknowledgement. When he hears me say qsl he will know I want a card, no matter what language he speaks, and will probably send me one of his cards. In this way. whenever a visitor comes to see my station I can show him all the places I have talked to. by showing him my collection of cards. There is a magazine published that is known as the Radio Amateurs ' Call Book. This magazine comes out every three months and is similiar to a phone book. It has all the stations of the world listed (by call letters instead of names) so when you hear a station you can look it up in this call book and find the address. A new issue comes out often enough so that all listings are kept u]) to date with new stations and changes in addresses of old stations. Many friends are made over the air that you meet later in person or they may be too far away to meet. You know a fellow by his call letter and when you hear a friend calling you over the air. it is just the same as meeting a friend on the street. I have made friends with many fellows in other cities that I have come in contact with over the air. I have never S T O R Y A N D ' !{ R S K 139 met most of these bovs i)L ' rsonaIly. but tbrouj h my repeated eontacts I have come to know them ((uite well. It they ever come to Los Angeles or if I ever visit their city we usually look each other up and meet each other for the first time. I have had friends from other cities, and in fact other states, come and look me up when they visited Los Angeles. A person may ask. ' A ' hat do these amateurs talk about when they communicate with each other? This question is just about as hard to answer as if I would ask you. What do people talk about over a tele- phone? Over the air. amateurs say exactl}- the same thing that you would say if you were talking to a friend over the telephone. When stations first get in contact, however, they usually give each other a report on how they are receiving each other and tell where they are located. Tf you are talking to a person for the first time you will probably tell him about your station and spend the rest of the time visiting. Some fellows are interested in contacting distance and as soon as they have a report on how their signals are. they are ready to stop and hunt for another distant station to talk to. You may be wondering how these stations go about contacting each other. There is an international abbreviation called CQ. When I sit down to my radio and wish to talk to another station I can either listen for some other station calling cq or I can send cq myself. This means that the station calling wants to talk to another station and this is a gen- eral call to any one that would like to talk to him. If I heard some- one calling cq and I wanted to contact him I would give him a call, and if he heard me he would come back to me and the conversation would be started. In the same way, after I called cq. I would listen for any station that might be calling me. Some times more than one station will call you and you have to take your choice as to which one you wish to come back and talk to. Another time you may call cq oxer and over and never get any one to call back to you. Messages, similar to telegrams, are relayed for the public free of charge by these amateur stations. For example, a person may give me a message for one of his friends or relatives in San Francisco. I may then try to contact a station in San Francisco and when I did, I would give the operator the message. Tf the i)erson to whom the message was addressed had a telephone, he would probably deliver it over the telephone, otherwise he would deliver it in person or if it was too far away he would mail it. Messages are relayed all over the United States in this way all the time. International regulations do not allow these messages to be handled between foreign countries because it is likely to take a great deal of business from the commercial radio companies. These messages very sel- dom contain over 25 or 30 words and are generally in the form of 140 THE ARTISAN W ' 35 Birthday or Christinas Greetings, however some messages are of a more important nature. Some stations handle as many as seven or eight hun- dred messages a month. I have handled quite a few of these messages hut don ' t relay so many any more. Some time ago I took 31 messages from the Schofield Barracks in Hawaii in one morning. In a disaster, such as our earthquake of March, 1933, amateur sta- tions (|uite often play an important part. These stations are ahle to operate entirely from hatteries so that when telephone and power lines are cut off, they are the only means of communication with the outside world. These stations are portahle and are taken to the place where they are needed most and all relief work is directed hy them. Shortly after the disaster, amateur stations play an important part in sending mes- sages from people in the stricken area to their relatives informing them of how they survived. Some people may have the idea that these stations are big or com- plicated. Some of them are, Init a lot of them are very simple to con- struct and inexpensive to operate. The most elaborate part of most sta- tions is the aerial. My own station is very low powered and simple, yet I have derived very much pleasure out of it. 1,000 watts is as much power as an amateur station can legally have, and some of them have that much, but so far 50 watts has been plenty for me to use. Some portable stations are very low powered. 1 or 2 watts, and are cheaper to operate than some receivers, yet they can talk with persons at a great distance.

STORY AND ' E R S E 143 lltk Grade Prize Winner WAG Bv David Hotley A sc ream from a petrified bystander, a screeching of brakes, a form flashing past officer O ' Reilly, and that moment of agonized silence was over. Onlookers, who the moment before had been rooted to the spot on which they stood, relaxed with loud sighs of relief and one man took out his hankerchief and wiped off the cold sweat that had come out in beads upon his forehead. Traffic began to move again. Officer O ' Reilly towered over Phil Ashley who was holding rather sheepishly, a small and very badly scared police dog pu])py. O ' Reilly puffed up, cholced for words, and then suceeded in sput- tering. Man, do you realize what you just did.- ' Sure. came the quiet and easy rejily. T saved some kid a lot of wailing when he found his ])up a bloody, mangled, mass. But do you realize what might have ha])pened to you? the officer stormed. You came near being killed! Phil shrugged and changed the subject abruptly. Glancing down at the dog he . aid. Who do you suppose his owner is.- ' O ' Reilly, whose brain was beginning to return to normal, said, He probably hasn ' t strayed far, but in a city of this size, hunting for his owner would be like looking for a needle in the haystack. Suddenly an idea struck him. I ' ll tell you what to do! Advertise in the papers! This is the w ll-to-do section o ftown and his owner will probably be awantin ' him back. Phil took the off.cer ' s advice and found him to be right. It was only a week until the owner, an aged man saw one of the ads and called for his dog. Phil had dubbed him Wag because everytime he looked at him he was wagging his tail. The old gentleman seemed very glad to get him back and forced on Phil a liberal reward before leaving. Weeks stretched into months and the incident began to fade from Phil ' s mind, which was concentrated on the coming final exams. Phil was a senior in high school, and his graduation depended on his ability to come through. An added incentive, and one which undoubtedly contributed greatly to the zeal he displayed, was the fact that his graduation present from his uncle was to be a trip east to the W ' orld ' s Fair with all expenses paid. Of course, he wouldn ' t get this if he didn ' t graduate. i idi Well, Phil reflected sleepily, it had been worth it. Two days on the v. ' ay. riding on the crack train of that particular line, he had enjoyed every 144 T H E A R T I S A N W 3 5 minute of it. Now, this was the close of another day, every one bringing him nearer his destination. Rumors had been flying around that there was a famous circus dog on board. I eing taken to the Fair to ])erform and that several attempts had been made already to kidnap him. Phil wondered idly, as he drifted otf to sleep, if there would be any more attempts made to alxluct the famous canine star. Screams, groans, and a very abrupt jolt brought Phil to his senses and jerked him upright in his berth. What had happened? Phil swung his feet over the edge and jumped down to find everyone running towards the front of the train. Hastily donning some slippers, he joined the crowd. When he came to the door of his car and jum])ed down to the ground, he saw a group gathering around one of the baggage cars. Running up, he found himself with the rest of the passengers, witnessing something sel- dom even read in the present day detective thrillers. Five armed men held the crowd at bay while two UK -e could be heard inside the car. They were talking coaxingly to something. The dog! That was it! this was another attempt and one that looked as if it were going to suceed ! In fact, even as these thoughts were flashing through Phil ' s mind, the two men appeared with the dog, ready to lead him down an incline to the ground. Then, the rays from a lantern carried by one of the the brakeman passed over the dog and Phil jumped. Wag. he cried in amazement and joy. Wag. In the same instant that the dog with a joyful yelp bounded towards Phil, men from all sides jumped on the five gangmen on the ground wdiose attention had been momentarily distracted, and there ensued a general free for all, Phil join- ing in with almost savage delight. The next day the papers were telling the world of the fourth and nearly successful attempt made on the dog, giving elaborate and exagger- ated accounts of how it was completely foiled through the daring of one Phil Ashley a young high school graduate en route to the World ' s Fair. The short and simple telegram recieved by Phil ' s parents stood mute but strong contrast to the lurid stories of the press.

It was the dream that William Shakespeare wrote tor his hand of players long ago, when Hollywood Hills were a trackless w ilderness. It was there that Max Reinhardt cast his spell. Few people in this so real age believe in the unreal. Long ago. when they were children, they knew there were little people living in the wood that on a midsummer night lost the invisibility. They knew that if you put a piece of fern seed in your shoe you became invisible and could see the elves and gnomes and fairies in the pale light of the summer ' s moon. Out of the misty past the little people came with Puck leading them to tell the world what fools these mortals be. Reinhardt had the moon begin his work. It was on a soft, warm night and at first there were so many clouds that one couldn ' t see the stars. The night winds swept the clouds away after a while and the moon was there, only a piece of it, hanging low over the hills. When the lights went out it filled the wood with silver dust. Way up on the hill, near Athens, the crickets fiddled away and a few night birds cried out. The music was very soft and sweet. Then came the fairies. The moon seemed to know just where to find us, under the tree branches, where we were ready to revel with our fairy queen, 146 THE ARTISAN W 3 5 Then out of the past came Hermia and Lysander and Demetrius and Helena, with their tangled lives and lo es, to create a problem for Oberon and Puck to solve. There was no otHlr world than this now. Puck, the mad spirit, came dancing thru the trees playing his pipe and shouting at the moon. Way uj) on the hill figures appeared. And then the firefly lights danced thru the trees. Then came a flash of fire and down the hill came hundreds of people bearing torches. One could only see the lines of fire at first. It dripped down and down until one could see the men who carried the torches, and all the while the wedding march sounded. These were men and women of an ancient Athens in the wood that had now become a palace hall. Then the mist came down once more and we of the magical world had vanished.

Imagine being chosen to represent such a large institution. I was very much enthused ; to me it was a tremendous undertaking. Of course, the one thing I had in mind was to come out on top. Be- sides all the honors there were to be received, the winner would become the proud possessor of a beautiful silver loving cup. For months I struggled with my trusty typewriter. I cancelled many engagements, feeling that I must devote all my time to my art and Alma Mater. During the course of practice I encountered many difficulties, such as nervousness and eye strain, but the most trying part of my adventure was yet to come. At last the day of reckoning arrived. What a day ! I shall never forget it. I began to prepare for the contest. My first spell of nervousness overtook me when I stepped into the bathtub and to my horror I landed on a piece of soap and proceeded to slide around. I mastered my emotions only to step out of the tub on a rubber mat and the water squirted in my eye. I was helping mother prepare our luncheon and in slicing the to- matoes. I proceeded to slice my finger slightly. Imagine my excitement at this point, the contest being only a few hours away. We got into our car and the car was dry. We sent my brother to buy some gasoline. After much confusion we were on our way- We reached the City Hall, where the contest was to be held, and searched for the contesting room. What luck ! It was on the thirteenth floor. Incidentally, the date was May 13. After struggling through a crowded elevator, we reached the room. At last I found my teacher. He had much faith in my ability to win, making me weak in the knees. Well, everyone got in his place. Of course, to me it seemed that the typewriter needed oiling, that the chair was too high, and the table was crooked. Winning the cuj seemed only an illusion. In my opinion it could never be a reality. The whistle was blown ! .Attention, everybody ! Three seconds to go ! S T O R Y A N D K R S E 149 One girl shouted. Stop, my pai)er is in crooked. The contestants were halted. Once more we tried and the whistle was blown again. We were off ! To my utter astonishment I finished in first place in my division. Can you believe it — I was the winner ! I was praised for being the youngest as well as the best typist for my division. I was presented with the sweepstakes, a beautiful silver loving cup, which I cherish, and when I gaze upon it. it brings back the rememl)rance of the hectic day when I won the typing contest.

Letting in but little light From the pale yellow moon. And the dark brown bear. Crashing through the underbrush, Perhaps returning to his lair. Shatters the silence with a rush. Then the lean grey wolf, Coming home at the break of day. Glides silently along the wooded path, And pauses, to sing his mournful lay. I ' 2merging from his thicket The rabbit also greets the day. And. glancing eagerly about, He quickly hops away. The birds in the tree-tops awake to sing. Thus the day comes to the forest deep. And all the woodlands ring with joy.

STORY A X 1) E R S E 151 IN THE () ' 1 N Bv ' ' lRGIMA RODECKER I am inclined to think that a girl ' s wit is quicker than a man ' s in a tight place, if the place is tight enough. Mr. Parsons had spoken after we had heen silently sitting for several minutes watching the mist that was creeping over moonlit water and lis- tening to the chirp of the crickets in the grass. He always began a story by stating the moral. His way was to present some conclusion and then prove it by a personal experience. ' T was thinking of my sister, he explained. She once saved us both from a fearful death. If it had not been for her ready wit I should have been a biscuit ! At this every one straightened up perceptibly. Mr. Parsons ' stories were always interesting. Perhaps all of you do not know that my father was a cracker manu- facturer. he continued. And that he had a shop with machinery and three ovens in it. Of course that would be considered nothing to-day. when there are bakeries that supply thousands of people in every part of the country, hut when I was a boy I remember I used to wonder if there were enough mouths to consume all that my father ' s workmen made. I often went down to the shop, for it was really fascinating to watch the mixers turning the great rolls of dough over and over, and see the cutting machines chopping a long strip of it into little sticky lumps. Then old Carberry, the baker, would toss the pieces which had been patted and molded by hand on the tiled floor of the oven. The day. I remember, had been rainy, and after a discouraging attempt to amuse ourselves in the house. Margaret, my sister, said. ' Let ' s take umbrellas and go down to the bakery. ' I was so glad of the suggestion that I forgot it was the noon hour, when the men would be gone and the machinery shut down. It wasn ' t until we saw the deserted room that we remembered it. ' Well. ' said I. ' we are bright, aren ' t we? But let ' s look around — I ' ll tell you. let ' s look at the cool oven. ' ' Cool oven ! ' exclaimed Margaret, in surprise. I explained to her that in the ordinary course of business only two ovens were used, and that unless there were extra orders there was always one oven which was out of commission, being shut off from the furnaces below by the big sheet-iron dampers. I raised the latch of the heavy door and bent down to look across the flat, tiled surface inside. 152 T HE A R T I S A N W ' 3 5 ' It ' s just like a cave, isn ' t it. Bob? ' cried my sister. ' Let ' s crawl in. she said after a short time. ' All right. ' said I. touching the brick walls to make sure I hadn ' t made a mistake ; and then I followed my sister inside through the gloomy opening. ' Will it get my dress dirty? ' Margaret asked, out of the darkness. ' No. indeed. ' said I. They have to keep these ovens clean as can be. They ' re fussy about every speck of dust. ' I had hardly finished when the iron door behind us shut with a resounding clang. One of the workmen had come back to work and closed it. ' ' O Bob. ' cried my sister, with a little scream of fright, ' we ' re shut in! ' ' Like two biscuits. ' I laughed. ' Don ' t you mind. All we have to do is shout and some one will come. ' But Margaret was really scared, and groped her way near me to put her hand on my shoulder. I confess the darkness and the close, stuffy air were far from cheerful. I began to call as loud as I could, and not getting any answer, I crept over to the solid iron door and began kicking it with my heels. After a moment I stopped, breathing hard from my exercise, and then I heard Margaret ' s voice behind me, saying : ' Wait a minute. Bob ! Listen ! ' I strained my ears, and from the outside I could hear a rumbling that seemed to come from far, far away. ' It ' s the machinery! ' I cried. ' It ' s after one o ' clock, and they have begun to work again. No wonder they couldn ' t hear us ! ' By that time I had become really frightened, and I suppose I must have tem|)orarily lost my head. I shouted wildly until my throat was sore, but it seemed only to fill our oven trap with noise. There was no hope whatever that it would penetrate the thick brick wall. Suddenly I was startled into silence by a sound of scraping iron underneath us — a familiar noise to my ears- Some one had pulled open the great damper that shut us off from the fires in the cellar below! They were going to heat our oven ! ' What was that? ' exclaimed my sister, touching my hand with her cold fingers. ' What did that noise mean. Bob? ' She seemed to know our danger by instinct. I did not answer, for with a sinking heart I felt on my face the first breath of warm air ! ' Tell me. Bob! ' demanded Margaret. ' They are heating this oven aren ' t they? ' She had caught my wrist and pressed it as hard as a girl can squeeze. STORY AND V E R S 1-: 153 Yes. I said, trying to speak Iiravely. I renicnihcr 1 felt that if I were alone I should not care nearly so much, but the idea that my little sister would have to die, too. put me into another panic. . second breath of air a good deal hotter than the first fanned my cheek. I jumped up with a scream, and beat and kicked upon the rough brick walls and on the iron door in blind terror. Then, exhausted. I crawled along the floor to the place where Margaret sat. She was crying quietly — I could tell because when I put my arm about her I could feel that she was shaking. I tried to think, but the heat had then liecome almost unbearable, it stung my nose and seemed to suffocate me. Once when I touched a place on one of the tiles I drew my hand back in real pain. There was no hope of breaking the latch of the iron door, and no one could possibly hear us. though we put our mouths to a little crack at the top of the door and screamed. I was sure we would be baked. My arm was still around my sister, and her hand was still in mine, as if she was seeking the com- fort of the touch. It was becoming hotter and hotter, but neither of us s])oke for several seconds. Then suddenly Margaret started up and cried out for a piece of paper. I found an old i)ost card in my pocket and gave it to her. ' They can ' t hear us but we can make them see. Hurry, give me your jack-knife. ' I handed it to her. and she began to i)ick at the hem of her skirt with the ])oint of the knife, for a chain-stitch on the hem and i)ulled it out. ' Now l:)ob. ' she commanded, handing me the card, ' jmnch a hole thru it and tie the thread on t(j the card. ' From my own struggle to keep my senses in the awful heat. T knew that she was nearly at the collapsing point. She then told me to dangle the card through the crack in the door. T understood her plan at last, and crawling painfully over on my knees. I thrust the postal card down the little crack between the door and the iron jamb. ' Pull it up and let it down! ' cried Margaret, with a final effort, and I jiggled the string so that the pa])er would dance upon the wall outside. My head swam with the effect of the terrible heat, and it seemed ages before anyone came. Then suddenly the latch was lifted, the door swung open, and in spite of the blinding daylight which poured in I could see the astonished face of old Carberry. the baker, peering in at us. I caught my sister ' s dress, pulling her toward me. and fell out after her into the old man ' s arms. 154 THE ARTISAN W ' 35 That is why I say, concluded Mr. Parsons, as he looked upon us with a smile, that it was a girl ' s wit that kept me from being baked like a biscuit. And that is the reason why I say that a girl ' s wit is the best thing in a tight place — provided the place is tight enough. STORM By Gail Martin A month of gloom has fallen. The myriad voices of the desert Are hushed — The air is still. Suddenly the brooding sky is rent With a knife of living fire! The earth below is spattered With giant drops. As though the heavens poured forth Then as if torn in exquisite pain. Its bellows of sheer agony blend With the wind in a long shuddering sigh. It is hours since the knife first struck And the storm is not yet spent. But what are hours to aught but man ? — To the heavens, that know eternity? S T O R Y A N D V E R S E 155 DOUGHNUTS By Herbert Park house He worked for a l)aker after school and delivered pastries and doughnuts in his ramshackle old car. On Saturdays, his employer sent him to deliver the leftover doughnuts to the poor people of the town. Soon he had a route over which he went each Saturday, and as the route grew larger as time went on, Doughnuts, as he soon became known, had many interesting experiences. Mrs. Thompson lived on the edge of the town in an old shanty, protected by two huge, half -starved hounds. Each time he went there, he handed the doughnuts across the fence to Mrs. Thompson, but at last came a day when he went there to find no one at home but the two brutes who were waiting for him. eagerly and hopefully. Summoning up all his scant courage, he manfully opened the gate, and advanced toward the shanty. So far, so good. He placed the doughnuts on the porch, turned around, and nervously began to retrace his steps. Suddenly the dogs sprang at him. He ran as fast as he could towards the gate and safety, but he was edged in by the hounds, who apparently were having great sport. As a last resort, he somehow climbed into a tree which luckily happened to be between the dogs and himself. At this unexpected devel- opment, the enraged (but still hopeful ) dogs let out howls which must have been heard throughout the countryside, but also must have been quite commonplace for they brought no rescue. There he half -hung, his trouser- legs slowly being torn to strips. He did everything he could to keep from falling into the jaws of those ravenous beasts. At last, long after the sun had set, help came in the form of Mrs. Thompson. She held the dogs at bay while he painfully but nevertheless, rapidly hobbled to his long-waiting car. Said Doughnuts to himself. I ' ll never go there again ! Mrs. Martin, her shiftless husband, and their brood of ragamuffins lived in an old cabin on an island in the middle of the changeable Prarie River. Sometimes Doughnuts was able to drive his car across the baked river-bed and deliver his doughnuts to the door of the Martins ' residence. Usually however, the older children rowed to the bank and there received their goods. One day as Doughnuts honked his signal to the Martins, no reply came back and as he knew that the water was at its highest level, he shoved one of the many row-boats which were to be found along the shore towards the Martins ' island. There were only the highest spots in view as he reached his destination and when he disembarked and ran towards the old shack, he stumbled and slipped into pools many times. At last he 156 T H E A R T I S A N W ' 3 5 was at the door of the shanty. The water covered the front steps and seeped through a half -open door. He called but no one answered. Had the Martins helplessly drowned, unable to secure help from the town on either side of their island refuge? He looked up and down the river l)Ut could see nothing. At last he went into the house and there found the solution to his mystery. On the table was a note which read. ' ' We ' re drowned out ! Pete built a raft. We ' re going south. Said Doughnuts to himself. r ' Tll never go there again ! The largest family in town was that of Mrs. Williams, one of Doughnuts ' s customers. There were thirteen children, the oldest boy ])eing eighteen. One Saturday morning as he drove up at the Williams ' door, he saw a crowd gathered and a general state of disorder. He. was told that the river was about to be dragged in an endeavor to find the body of Roy Williams. It seemed that while Roy was fishing from the water- works dam, he had entered into an argument with a fellow fisherman. In the ensuing scufifle. he had been pushed into the water and it was feared, drawn into the machinery of the waterworks by its powerful suction. Hopes were held, however, that he had drowned naturally and that his body could be found. As Roy had apparently been the chief support of his mother, his loss was doubly felt. Because Doughnuts prided himself on the well-being of his customers and because he realized that desperate need now faced the Williams if something were not done for them, he persuaded his mother to ask the ladies of the town to see to it that this family was taken care of. However, one night he was sent after school with some left-over pastry to his customers, and to his surprise when he reached the Williams ' , all the children were dressed with a lavishness which would have outdone Solomon. At his signal, they fled into the house and called their mother. After some time, she came out. Feeling that something was strange, he drove away but returned on foot after she had gone into the house with the pastries. Soon she and the children came out again, laughing among themselves. I thought my goose was cooked to- night, she exclaimed. If they ever guessed that we get money from your father ' s insurance, you might have to go to work. Turning to his car with a loud exclamation of disgust, said Doughnuts to himself. I ' ll never go there again. Miss Odessa, an elderly spinster, depended u])on selling eggs and chickens for her living. But as she often told Doughunts Just as you can ' t live on bread, so I can ' t live on chickens alone, and she was very grateful for his weekly visits. All went well and Doughnuts rather en- joyed sj ending a few minutes in conversation with Miss Odessa each week, but at last came a time when he wished he hadn ' t become so friendly S T ( ) 1 Y A N I) V E K S E 157 with the lady. There was something in the air that nK)niing. and when he got to Miss ( )dessa ' s house, he knew that he would soon he in trouhle. There she waited for him, a hutcher-knife in one knife and a handage on the other. She hailed him excitedly. My hand! Look! ' Doughnuts looked and realized what its crippled condition meant to him. For one Sat- urday out of every month was Miss Odessa ' s hutchering day. and this a])]:)arently was the day ! He tried to hurry away, but she pointedly asked him to do her a kindness by doing her butchering for her. He re- luctantly but politely consented. He stood there, with the knife in his hand, gazing at the fowls, steeling himself for the moment when he must cruelly murder them. Alas, he slowly weakened. He could not do this thing. Silently Doughnuts left the yard, slowly he got into his waiting car. but swiftly he drove away. Angrily, said he to himself. I ' ll never go there again. In exasperation, ' Doughnuts sped to his place of business, walked to the door of the bakery-shop, stood there for a moment, and then stalked in. His anger continued to rise as he walked towards his employer ' s office. He slammed the door mightily and as he walked towards the desk with a solemn tread, the glass broke with a crash. Said the boss. You ' re fired! Said Doughnuts to himself meekly, I ' ll never go there again! 158 THEARTISANW ' 35 SHATTERED DREAMS Bv Joan Hollman She stood looking about her. bewildered, dismayed, and lonely, on a deserted, quiet, little old platform with the friendly train fast disappear- ing in the distance. A few moments before she had sat in the car unmindful of the heat and the dust, absorbed in the joyful anticipation of coming home, lust think, she was going to see those dear faces again after fifteen long years of separation. During the whole long journey, she had been living again those happy days of long ago. Delightful and vivid memories flashed through her mind, the woods with swiftly flowing- little brooks to wade in. and the great bushes of delicately pink wild- roses and sweet scented lilacs to gather ; the ecstasy of dashing through seas of green clover dotted with stout little boats of butter- cups and violets ; the wonder of gazing through frosted windows at the strange designs which winter had painted upon snow laden trees ; the joy of breathing deeply the pure, fresh, fragrant air after a rain ; her serene and calm security during the most terrible electrical storms because of the assurance which the lightening rod on top of the house gave ; the little red light which shone so brightly with an assuring and friendly air in the massive hall ; the fascinating back stairs so dark and foreboding ; the quaint, rickety old houses with their lovely little gardens ; the dila]:)idated. crooked fences ; the little streams from melt- ing snows, running along wooden sidewalks ; the whistle of a boat an- chored near the decks ; the old railroad station waiting room where she always stopped to warm her cold hands in front of the antiquated stove, on her way home from school in the cold winter. Each new remembrance brought a rush of feeling, sometimes of joy, and sometimes of aching sorrow and loneliness. Each new memory brought a dozen others strug- gling in her already overflowing mind. What a carefree, happy child- hood she had had, loving and being loved by her family. Until that sad night, fifteen years ago. when her aunt had come to take her away. She had never realized until then the hardships her father must have suffered in taking care of so large a family. She had never noticed before his tired and worn face so deeply lined from care and worry. But suddenly, the whole terrifying truth was thrust upon her. and. to enlighten the task of an already overburdened father, she was taken away to live with an aunt. She could never forget that last night when her serious, quiet, and undemonstrative brother took her in his arms, tossed her into the air and STO RY A N 1) E RSE 159 caught her lovingly, the aching. i)aintul joy that she feU. Then, she had fled into the cold, rainy October night. And as the carriage rolled away, she had watched unceasingly the dim outline of her home fade in the distance. They had said that it would only he for a year. l)ut one year had stretched out into fifteen long, dreary, unhappy years. She had been snatched from one world into an entirely different one. She never under- stood her aunt, and her aunt could not understand her. Her spirit and desires were repressed and stifled, those same which had had such a carefree, happy, unmolested reign before. She hungered for the love which had glowed upon her so richly, but now — In all those last fifteen years, she had never looked at the beautiful mountains with their soft tints of purples, pinks, and grays. No, she looked far beyond and over them, far back to the happy days of her childhood which she tried to capture again in her memory. She lived and felt and thought in that land of dreams through all those hard, long years. And now. she was home again ! She stood for a moment, bewildered. And then, three people came toward her. She looked at them curiously and then startled. The one said, Is This Mary? How different, how strange! Utter and black darkness seemed to fill her little world of sunshine. Suddenly, she realized that they had all grown and changed while she had pictured them always as the same beloved small children she had left so long ago. Could this cold person be her adored Grace? Tears rushed to her eyes. There, there, don ' t make a scene. Grace said. Immediately a wall of restraint seemed to close in and to almost stifle her. Frightened and unhappy, she boarded with the others, the only street car of which the town boasted. To relieve the constrained tension, she asked what the queer contrivance in the corner of the car might be. It ' s a stove. whispered the older of the two sisters. Please be care- ful, Mary, or people will think you ' re from the country. Little did they realize that she was from a great city. Once more her eyes filled to over- flowing. Mary, for the sake of the family pride, don ' t cry! said her brother. Her mind was whirling with confused, questioning thoughts. The dreams which she had cherished for so long were shattered. But what had hap- pened to them ? When they reached the house, she was thankful to see that it, at least, had not changed, except, perhaps, for being a little more shabby. Rut through the weeks that she stayed, she found that something was missing. She wandered about, always searching, always trying to bring back that happy spirit among them that no longer existed, She found 160 T H E . R T I S A X W 3 5 that her father, who still stood erect and carried his head high, had not changed, which was a solace to her wounded heart. Yet, she seemed a stranger. The family no longer included her in their common joys and sorrows. She had no place in their lives. She realized that she. heing all alone, had lived only for the time when she might return to them, while they, having each other, had forgotten her. So. in a few weeks, she boarded the train again, and said goodbye to the land of her childhood. For the first time, she saw the beauties of the place in which she had lived for the last fifteen years. She realized that her childhood was a closed chapter of indefinable sweetness, and happi- ness, and sorrow, in her book of life to be remembered with gentleness. tenderness and wonder. But now. she knew that there were other things to live for. Before, she had been living in the past ; now. she looked toward the future with new hope, new courage, and a new spirit. MIST Anonymous Out of the night There came to Him A flaming Mist. Clothed in a golden Aura. It said to Him I am the spirit of the Commander. I am slow. slow. I never rush. Haste leads me to the well of disillusionment Where my light is put out By the oily waters. s t o r y a n d ' e r s e 161 i ' i :rs()NAltties By Sidney Silver In our most illustrious graduating class, as in any other group of people, can be found every tyi:)e and class of human being imaginable. There is an old saying to the effect that there is nothing under the sun that cannot be classified. Therefore, I have classified persons, and hence the Commander Class, into five di isions, as follows : 1. He who knows everybody. 2. He who knows almost everybody. 3. He who knows enough. 4. He who knows not many. 5. He who knows nobody. ( It may seem to the casual reader that this classification is rather obtuse and irrelevant. Well, you can tell the casual reader that he is right. I am not a philosopher.) Let us take this list and go through each class, one by one. If we are good diagnosticians we will be able to justify our choice of this particular classification. He who knows everybody, may be termed the super-socialist. He has a date every night in the week, and he takes nothing seriously. He makes no attempt to do his schoolwork, and expects no good grades in return. But one thing he can boast of, and that is. he knows about every- body in school. He waves a fluttering hand at everybody from the student- body president to the 74-demerit student. He is the sort of fellow who will, to his everlasting regret, find out that those whom he knows, do not know him. Especially when he tries to find work after he graduates. He may be likened to the grasshopper who laughed at the ant. But he will soon discover, He who laughs last laughs best. If you were to meet him in about twenty years, you would find a rather sad-faced, disillusioned man, not too successful, and with a frayed collar. If you were to ask him, What have you got from your life and friends? He would answer, Nothing valuable. I wish I had known fewer but truer friends. He who knows almost everybody might also be termed the glad- bander. He is the fellow who comes up behind you and smacks you on the back when you ' re eating an ice cream cone. He does very little schoolwork, and also expects nothing in return. But sometimes he will find some work that he likes, labor a little while on it, and then throw it away. He is very likely to be a witty fellow, who has not quite found himself. He will, most likely make a good citizen after some fellow, who has had ice cream spread all over his face by the glad-hander ' s resounding blow, has turned around and told the latter something. 162 THE A R T I S A N ' 3 3 He who knows enough may also he termed the good fellow. the average man, etc. We all know him. In fact, many of us are prohably of this class ourselves. He does the required school work, and gets the aver- age grades for his work. He goes to all the important dances and joins the clubs he likes. From him we get our student body officers and general school leaders. Thirty per cent of the Commander class came from this category. He who knows not many includes 60 percent of us. This class is the most complex of all, because it may include anybody from a C.S.F. graduate to a fellow who always lacks one credit. However, let us make a few generalities, concerning any member of this class. He goes to a few dances, missing many of the important ones. He pals with one special group of students. He does all his school work, more or less, and gets any grade from an ' A ' to a ' F ' . He joins a few clubs and attends most of the meetings. He is likely to be a school leader in certain sections of school life that require scholarship. He who knows nobody presents a rather unique prol)lem. This class may be divided into two sections : (a) He who knows no body for good reasons. (b) He who knows no body for no reason. In the first section we find those fellows who have outside work, or who are working for some honor. They are very likely to be leaders in some scholarly field in later life. In the second section, we discover the Absolute-Isolationist. He is the type of fellow who ' ll drown himself so he won ' t have to attend his own funeral. He consoles himself with thoughts of the sacrifice he is mak- ing in depriving his fellow students of his company. He is likely to be a Gold Seal Graduate and a fine student, but he will find that he is missing the best part of life when he isolates himself. You may depend upon it that every member of the faculty knows somebody who suffers this piti- able malady. It is very likely that this fellow will sooner or later snap out of it and become a good, cooperative citizen. I have finished my catecism (where ' s the dictionary?) and now 1 will withdraw from school life until the end of the term. In conclusion I wish to say that there are some enigmatical members of the Commander class that are in class by themselves (don ' t look at me!) They are a constant source of puzzlement to their fellow members, and are likely to receive such criticism from their friends. Let it be hoped that their true worth will someday be recognized. Thev are considered eccentric and radical. Imt you will find them in later life among the famous authors, statesman, playwrights, scientists, and leaders of their age. Au revoir ! STdRY AN D VER SE U,.:; COGITATIONS By Marcella Harrison Watching the darkness Gently falling over the turmoil of life . . . I think of what I ' ve clone, or should have done. Sitting here in the darkness, Drawing conclusions of my self ... I wonder I have tried all arts, and failed. I have prayed for just one little thing. That which we call opportunity. I have wanted riches, thinking I might huy happiness. I have wanted heauty, thinking I would be lovable. I have prayed, yes Dear Lord, That you might see fit to give these things to me. And to-night as the last light of day dies, I ' m sitting here wondering. It ' s true, I have no riches, nor beauty. I might have even thought, you hadn ' t heard. When my dreams didn ' t materialize. But now, I know I ' m wrong. You did hear, and with your graciousness Combined them all and have given me a Contended Mind. 164 THEARTISANW ' 3 5 THE PATH OF LITERATURE By Sidney Silver The problem of story and verse can he considered from innumerahle angles. If we approach it from the angle of the stories and the authors we are enmeshed in a maze of different themes and personalities. If we are to sit down in an easy chair and look through one hundred stories written by one hundred different authors, we would find one hundred dilTerent themes and thoughts. The first literature that was important occured in the Greek. Egyp- tian, and Roman civilization. There we find the ancient myths of Her- cules, etc., the poems of Homer, the philosophy of Plato, and the scien- tific opera of Aristotle. Next we arrive at the Middle Ages and Renais- sance. Church literature was bountiful. The works of Galileo and his contemporaries w ere published then also, but most of their books were de- stroyed. The days of Shakespeare. Voltaire, Kent, Dickens, and their col- leagues then took the limelight. Books on the philosophy and science of the time were published, in combination with plays and revolutionary books. The Modern era then took the reins and the literature of America and Europe, science and philosophy, and the modern novels were read by the common people for the first time. All this classification leads to but a few general conclusions. The non-fiction of any era deals with the new ideals and thoughts of that particular era ; it deals with the knowledge that must be imparted to the youth of that era; and it deals with the thoughts and ideas of past eras. The fiction of any era deals with revolutions and changes that are taking l)lace in that era (Dickens, Talc of Tivo Cities) ; it deals with the life of past nations or of past individuals, whether anonymous or not; it deals with the life of present nations and individuals of any country; and it deals with the life or phases of the life of any future individuals and things. In the future. Commanders of literature wnll write of the past ; they will write, as our authors do today, of the heroes, the deeds, and the thoughts of the ages behind them. They will write of the future ; they will paint before us the pictures of a marvelous age to come, in which man will progress even faster than he can imagine. But mostly, they will write of the present ; they will use the magic that resides in words and sentences to portray before their readers the change, the realism, the dirt, and the gild that we all live on this little planet of ours and join together to form life. Literature will change from what it is now only as civilization changes from what it is today. 166 T H E A R T I S A N W 3 5 Tuesday, Septcmljer 1 1 .3400 sunburned, mosquito bitten, lut happy Manualites answered the call for the first day of school.

A large turn out showed the school ' s appreciation for the efforts of these two very necessary organizations. Friday, December 14 No. the Army isn ' t on parade. Flashing sabers and sparkling orna- ments to say nothing of the decorations all help to make this year ' s Army dance one of the most successful of the term. ( In case you hadn ' t guessed, Jake Cohen was the Santa Claus.) Santa Claus is coming to town, and for this reason we take a couple of weeks vacation. Friday, January 5 The Squires under the able leadership of their president, Fred May, held their Semi-annual dance this evening in our gym. Johnnie Truax, prominent Squire, presented a scintilating floor show for the amusement of all those present. Tuesday. January 9 Virginia Brown played hostess at the Lyric club tea which was held hi the Practice House this afternoon. The tea is held every term to give the mothers a chance to get with the girls and the school. Friday, January 11 Don ' t you wish you had studied a little harder and could have joined the Scholarship Society so that you could have attended the dance spon- sored by them this evening? Nancy Holme and Art Manella make very capal)le hosts, don ' t you think? Tuesday, January 15 The house was sold out today when the play Loyalties was presented to a very eager audience. The characters in the play were well portrayed and it will go down in the history of the Commander class as one of their many achievements. 174 T H E A R T I S A N W 35 Friday, January 18 Stepping high and wide to some very dehghtful music the Baby Seniors held their first dance this evening in Foster gym.

Friday, January 25 Climaxing a very great term in the hne of sports the Manual Arts ' Lettermen held their prom this evening. Preliminary elections were held today amid quite a confusion, but judging from the capabilities of the candidates we should have a very responsible set of officers this next term. Monday, January 28 Final elections are held today. Tuesday. January 29 Today the Commander Artisan is issued and is acclaimed one of the best in years. Earl Marks, as editor of this grand edition, we salute you.

And believe you me it is one hard job to give up your office but the old cabinet has served us well and deserved much appreci- ation for their untiring efforts in our behalf. Friday, February 1 It seems impossible that it is all over so soon but it ' s the truth. Amid l)eautiful gowns and pretty flowers, handkerchiefs were much in evi- dence this evening at Bovard Auditorium, scene of the year ' s graduation. Commanders, command in the future as you have in the past remembering always, To Know is to Command. S C H OO L LIFE 175 THOUGHTS Bv Robert C.

The day has indeed passed when every artist, actor, musician, and orator had to follow a predetermined outline of procedure if he wished to be acclaimed as a leader in his par- ticular field. Marvelous advances have especially been made in painting and related forms of art. Recently a new form of metal working has been introduced that causes exclamations wherever it is shown. Bronze, copper, and other forms of workable metals are molded, hammered and forced into various symbols and forms. These are attached in an ingenious man- ner to a special blackboard, and the result is a scintillating, breathtaking psuedo-painting. It may be a landscape, a portrait, or any other type of object usually depicted in oil or watercolor paintings, but the modernistic effect produced by the metallic colors cannot be equalled by any other method than by the use of the metals themselves. In the future more novel ideas similar to this will be employed, in combination with im- pressionistic and modern thoughts, to form a beautiful, modern form of art and statuary. In the field of Drama, the drawing power of realistic plays is stead- ily being realized. The value of plays produced by Shakespeare and his contemporaries will not be forgotten, but the plays depicting modern life and change will be greatly appreciated in the future. The producers of future motion pictures and stage plays will recognize and heed the fol- lowing dictate : The main objective of drama is to transport the patron from the sometimes cruel life which he lives to another more enjoyable world ; secondly, he should leave the theatre with the thought that he has gained something for his patronage, that he has not wasted his time on tawdry, worthless films or plays which do him no possible good. Music today is in rebirth. The tempo of life has increased so much that modern day inhabitants of the world cannot enjoy classical music every moment of the day. Also, with the invention of the radio, it is a generally recognized fact that other types of music must be discovered to fill the empty moments of the day for radio listeners. No possible harm can be done by the works of Ferde Grofe. George Jessel, and other modern composers. Musical notes will be combined in such a manner, in the future, that new, invigorating music can be had by all. Classical, semi- classical, modern, and jazz music will be combined during the day to satisfy the variable moods of human beings. THE PLAYERS ' COMPANY liv Jack Crouch Lal)oring under outstanding difficulties in securing capal)le meml:)ers. the Manual Arts Players ' Company, under the able leadership of presi- dent Bill O ' Keefe, has waded through one of its most successful terms. The outstanding event of the term was the presentation of The Fourth Mrs. Phillips. ' a one act comedy under the direction of president O ' Keefe. Through this play eighteen new members were secured and this paved the way for a successful spring term. O ' Keefe also encountered more difficulties through tiffs with the cabinet and publicity managers. Publicity throughout the term was ably handled by Bob Swift. Paul Griem, and Jack Crouch. The most active member of the Company this term was secretary- treasurer Paul Griem who not only helped handle publicity but was as- sistant director of the play. President O ' Keefe is only an All this term and has two more terms in which he hopes to build the company up to the standard which it has attained in previous years. The cabinet members are : President, Bill O ' Keefe ; vice-president, Grace Blynn ; secretary-treasurer, Paul Griem ; publicity manager. Bob Swift, Paul Griem. Jack Crouch; property manager, Charles liowerman. Toe Korda, FOR E K S I C S 179 SENKJR FORUM The Manual Arts Senior Forum, foremost speech organization of the school, has completed one of the most active terms in the history of its existence. The tryouts at the heginning of the term, which were in the form of extemporaneous speeches of three minutes length by the con- testants, were held on two successive Mondays, and over thirty new mem])ers were accepted by the Forum. At the Forum meetings held each Monday of the school term, an old custom was reeinstated. For the first time in many years a large number of debates were sponsored by the organization. At the beginning of the term, debate activities started off with a bang when a number of school debates were given before the members. A cellar championship debate was sponsored at the middle of the term, and for the remainder of the semester, interschool debates were presented on Forum programs. In ad- dition to these debates, the Senior Forum ' s programs included open forum and panel discussions and other forensic activities. The officers for the term, who handled the Forum ' s affairs so satis- factorily were : Sidney Silver, president ; Edward Frieden, vice-president ; Betty Woods, girls ' vice-president; Patsy McCormack, secretary; Doug Doan, treasurer; and Bob Swift, sergeant-at-arms. Mr. Moore is the facultv adviser. 180 THE ARTISAN W 35 THE MANUAL ARTS DEBATE SOUAD The members of the Maimal Arts Debate squad zvisli to express their a ' ' rrn ' n- tion of one ivho has demoted himself unselfishly to the task of making the debate squad a successful organization. To Guy C. Moore, our instructor, coach, and firm friend, -ivc pay just tribute for by his unselfish labors and kindly advice he has ituielildy inscribed himself upon our hearts as one of the finest men it has been our pleasure to meet. The Manual Arts Debate Squad Counting the term of W ' 35 among the most noteworthy in its history, the deljate squad closed its most successful season in many years, in a league debate against Franklin on January 18. The questions for these debates were of national and local interest. The question of Japanese naval parity was ably discussed by Sumner Blaha. Raymond Lake, Sid Silver and Ed Frieden. Motion picture censorship was debated three times, the del)ators being Louise Maclntyre, Bernard Shapiro, Sam Riggio and Harold Fothergill, while the similar question with regard to the detri- mental influence of motion pictures was debated by Bernard Shapiro, Sid Silver. Ed Frieden, Harold Dill, Sam Riggio and Bob Wagner. Feldtman and Bob McClanahan both displayed exceptional promise for next term in debating the question of Government control of munitions. Other teams of the squad were Don Kelly and Jimmy Ackerman ; Fred May and (iordon Sey forth, all of whom were engaged in discussion of Federal aid to education. Edward Frieden, manager of the squad, and Sidney Silver, captain, carried the burden of arranging and managing the multitudinous debates of the season very ably. The good work of Mr. Moore and Mr. Newton, coaches, is well known. F (iR E N S I C S 181 JUNIOR FORUM The junicn Forum is an organization which functions primarily for the develoi)ment of future school leaders in Manual Arts. It is a fact that most of our student body officers come from this club. It is made u]) of BIO. A 10, and Bll students, and it endeavors to bring out and develop the characteristics that many students have, that is, to be at ease before an audience. Therefore, the majority of Junior Forum meetings are made up of open forum discussions on problems of the day. In these the entire forum can take part, each member contributing a thought or idea to the general discussion. At the end of the session a vote is taken on the question, and the meeting adjourns with every participant in the discussion having had valuable experience in reasoning and speech. This term the Junior Forum held its meetings every Monday, period 10, in room 265. Miss Johnson was the capable sponsor of the organiza- tion, and the officers who took care of the activities of the Forum so ad- mirably this past term, were : Byron Pederson, president ; Jimmy Roberts, vice-president ; Audrey May Elliot, girls ' vice-president ; Edith Harvey, secretary; Gordon Little, treasurer; Wesley Nelson, reporter. 182 T H E A R T I S A N W ' 35 DEBATING SEASON 1934-35 The reinforced Manual Arts debate squad participated in about twenty-four debates this season, September. 1934, to February, 1935. The two most important debates, of course, were the Southern California De- bating League contests. The first was with Citrus Union High School in Azusa. California. on November 14. 1934. The question was, Resolved that the influence of modern motion pictures is detrimental to American society. Manual ' s debaters, Bernard Shapiro and Edward Frieden, upheld the affirmative against their Citrus opponents. Our team won by a very satisfactory mar- gin, placing Manual Arts among the top high schools in the debating league. At the time of this writing the second league debate is being planned. Manual ' s opponent is Eranklin High School, several times City Champions. The question is. Resolved that the nations should act to further peace by establishing an international arms and munitions em- bargo. Manual will uphold the affirmative. If Manual should win this League debate, she will be definitely among the first few of the debating league. Then the burden will be shifted to the speakers of next term, who will be charged with the re- sponsibility of winning the third and final league debate, and the city championship debate, which will be held between the two leading schools, if it is necessary. The debate squad has held many other interschool debates this term also, as previously mentioned. Most of these were with Los Angeles. Franklin, and Redondo high schools. Manual is headed for a city champ- ionship, and it is to be hoped that she can overcome the obstacles before her in the form of the coming league debates, and finally succeed in winning her first championship in many years. F ( ) R E N S I C S 183 FORENSIC CLASSES AND TEACIII ' :kS The three Manual Arts teachers who contril)ute their time to ad- vanced forensics in the school are Mr. Moore, Miss Johnson, and Mr. Newton. Mr. Moore is the sponsor of the Senior Forum and the Dehate Squad. He also teaches the dehate class. The graduating memhers of all the organizations mentioned take this occasion to thank him for the friendly cooperation and hel]) that he has always given us, and for the everlasting patience with which he viewed our misdeeds. Miss Johnson teaches several public sj eaking classes, in addition to contrilmting her time to the Declamation. Herald Extemporaneous, and Senior Speech contests, and the Community Chest speeches. She is also the sponsor of the Junior Forum. To her the graduating members of the Debate Squad and other forensic institutions owe an everlasting debt of gratitude for the countless occasions on which she aided invaluably in speech work. She has always been a true friend, whose help was appre- ciated. Although Mr. Newton teaches no ])ul)lic speaking class and sponsors no S])eech organization, we shall always be thankful to him for his kindly and constructive criticism of all our del)ate contests. As a past coach of the debate squad, he has been a stalwart guide at all times, and many a fumbling speaker has he i ut on the straight and narrow path toward success. We thank you. Mr. Newton, for your humaneness. Also to Mr. Maile. Miss Oyler. Miss Frisius. Miss Sykes, Miss Addison, and all the rest of the faculty meml)ers who have helped in our forensic work, we of the graduating class give our thanks. We shall re- member you for your aid for many years to come. DECLAMATION CONTEST The Manual Arts Senior Forum sponsors, semi-annually, an orator- ical contest called the Declamation Contest which is open to any member of the student body. All contestants must have memorized a five-minute famous oration, originally given by a well-known speaker. Six winners are chosen in the preliminaries, and one of these is picked in the finals. The finals are held one or two weeks after the preliminaries. Mr. Moore and Miss Johnson are the sponsors of the contest, and Sidney Silver, president of the Senior Forum, was the general manager this term. The six winners chosen in the preliminaries this semester were Yolanda Samuels, Dorothy Arnaud, Ed Frieden, Fred Harris, Morris Kawin. and Sidney Troxel. The judges were Fremont Davis, Fred May, Arthur Manella and Byron Pederson. The final victor was Fred Harris who received a cup at the Senior Forum Banquet. The winning declamation was John Marshall and Fed- eral Supremacy — Gullion. The judges were Miss Oyler, Mr. Hiller. Mrs. Peasley, Miss McLaughlin, and Miss Furnas. 184 T H E A R T I S A N W ' 35 iff i ' I r- ' j- [• A CAPPELLA CMOIQ G1QL5 ' JUNIOR GLEE: CLUB . • ROy ' .HJNIOD GLEE CLUB M U S I C 1K5 A CAPPELLA CHOIR There is a reason why A Cai)])ena Ch(jir has l)ec()nie so jjopular with professional and school organizations in this country as well as in Europe. The power that singers gain in reading music, and in carrying parts; the thrill that comes in making perfect harmony with voices alone; the opportiniity of artistically interpreting fine music ; all these make A Cappella singing deservedly popular. The A Cappella Choir of Manual Arts has taken part in programs, and has enjoyed social good times in parties which help all to become acquainted. The float which they presented in the grand parade this fall showed their school spirit. THE GIRLS ' JUNIOR GLEE CLUB The Girls ' Junior (ilee Club is an organization that contributes to the cultural and social life of the school. They are enthusiastic in sup- porting school activities and have participated in many ways this sem- ester. The club is designed to meet the needs of all girls who enjoy singing, but an ability to read music and carry a part is desirable. Mem- bershi]:) is o])en to all girls who wish to know more about group work. A spirit of friendliness and hearty cooperation abounds in this class. If you like to sing come out and join with the group next semester. The cabinet for the semester consisted of Inez Murray, president; Geneva Scalzo, vice-president ; Mary Morales, secretary ; Betty Dorsey, librarian. Henrietta Pelta is the accompanist and Miss Blythe the spon- sor. BOYS ' JUNIOR GLEE CLUB One of the most interesting terms has just been com])leted by the Boys ' lunior Glee Club under the leadershi]) of Miss Elizabeth Mottern. and Fred Coelen. This group is a bunch of fellows who have not worried about entrance requirements, who like to sing and therefore have had a very enjoyable and profitable semester. Any fellow who craves good singing, with the added desire to improve his own voice, may enter, This club also fulfills the requirement of one semester of music appreciation, therefore many vastly interesting toi)ics come under class discussion, and the invitation is open to all boys to whom this might appeal. The club has been fortunate in being under the leadership of Fred Coelen, president ; Lawrence Yeager, vice-president ; Don Doyle, sec- retary-treasurer ; with Tommy Torry and George Endo acting as li- brarians. 186 THE ARTISAN W 35 AEOLIAN CLUB MU5 C CLUB NATURAL DANCING CLASS M U S I C 187 THK AEOLIAN CLUB The Aeolian Club this term has been one of the outstanding organi- zations of the school. They started off the term with a bang, by a surprise appearance in new sweaters, which have been the talk of the campus. They next organized another Manual Four, which has been very promi- nent in appearances throughout the semester. The social events of the club have been outstanding. The combined party with the Lyric Club was the first social function of the term. The semi-annual banquet which this year was held at McDonnel ' s Monterey was voted the outstanding social event in the history of the organization. The highlight was the speaker, Mr. Goodwin Knight, a former Manualite, who is now one of the most prominent lawyers in Los Angeles. Besides these two events, the club appeared before the Menlo Avenue School on a Christmas program, sang Christmas carols with the Girls ' Lyric on the grounds, appeared on several radio programs, and a chosen group ap- peared at the Plymouth Congregational Church and West Ebell Women ' s Club. They finished up the semester by entertaining the Southwest Chap- ter of the Native Sons of California, and by singing on the Commence- ment Program. The cabinet this term consisted of : president, Gordon Seyforth ; vice-president, Bernard Shapiro ; secretary, James Baker ; treasurer, Wil- mer Blumberg ; librarian. Byron Pederson ; manager. Bill Dickson ; and student adviser. Jack Tanner. The accompanist this term was Loneta Heard and the club is under the leadership of Miss Elizabeth Mottern. THE MUSIC CLUB The officers of the music club for W ' 35 with the ever ready coop- eration of the members have put over the most successful term of the club in the last two years. The officers are Sarah Iberri, president; Za- belle Jerah, vice-president; Helen Brown, secretary; Edith March, pub- licity manager ; and Kimball Moore, treasurer. The club has a membership of 54. We meet bi-monthly, and some talented members provide the program. French, Italian, and German operas together with vocal and piano recordings of great artists, have been featured this term. Our sponsor is Miss Lenore Snow, who has more than proven her capabilities as a successful leader and guide. A Greek Lyre made of gold with a M. A. H. S. scroll has been chosen for the permanent club pin. THE ARTISAN W ' 35 SYMPMONIC BAND SENIOt OKIMESTOA FOOrBALL BAI 4D MUSIC 189 SYMI ' HONK ' I ' .AND Interesting is the work of this or. anization for l)oth phiver and listener. The aim of composers of symphonic jazz music is to incor- porate into their work, the most interesting i)arts of jazz, but at the same time to write music of a high enough character to l)e played by sym- phony orchestras. Many times they arrange old classics into ultra-modern strains. We welcome l)ack Mr. William Killgrove, who was with the music department several years ago. Under his capable leadership, this band furnished music for the school dances and gave a program for the night meeting of the P. T. A., November 19. featuring descriptive compositions. Officers for the term are Jack Sexton, president: and Esther Freese, secretary-treasurer. SENIOR ORCHESTRA Much inspiration and knowledge have been gained l)y the .Senior ( )rchestra this term through the study of famous standard overtures and miscellaneous concert numbers. It is the aim of this organization to perform good music in an artistic manner, and this has been accom- plished this semester. Social affairs have not been forgotten as was shown by their picnic in Exposition Park, at which good comradeship was most evident. Officers who have carried through so successfully this term are Bruce McRay. president; Jimmy Roberts, vice-president; Jean Fram])ton, secretary. The organization is under the capable direction of Mr. William T. Killgrove. R. O. T. C. BAND The R.O.T.C. Band had a most successful term this semester. The l)and is in charge of Cadet Captain George Fashbaugh who is a very efficient drill master and a favorite with the band members. His work with the baton at the football games with Howard Bergherm was an out- standing feature of the season. Naturally the football season was the big jol) for the l)and this term, and the fancy maneuvers and letters made for the student body elicited a great deal of praise. Four drum majors added to the brilliance of the appearances. The band participated in the Football Carnival at the Coliseum. As usual the band appeared in the parade on Armistice Day. and this year played the drill music while the R.O.T.C. unit from Manual Arts gave a demonstration with rifles. 190 T H E A R T I S A N W 35 FUTURE COMMANDERS IN STATESMANSHIP By Sidney Silver Perhaps in no field of national or international relations have there been so many and so varied misunderstandings as in the realm of statesmanship. This statement can be interpreted in more than one way. Primarily, there is a lack of understanding between the statesmen of the country and the people they serve. True enough, the citizens of the United States have a general knowledge of our Congress and national adminis- tration, but the lack of knowledge concerning our international repre- sentatives and ambassadors is appalling. Occasionally, we read of the in- ternational conferences and parleys, but we pay very little, if any, attention to them. We seem to feel that the slogans, Buy America, and Amer- ica First should apply to international relationships in statesmanship as well as economics. We fail to realize that our common malady, war, is caused by this very lack of perception between the citizens of a nation and their statesmen. Secondly, and almost as important, there is a lack of cooperation between the statesmen themselves. Absolutely nothing can be done until the feeling of suspicion rampant among modern day ambassadors can be stamped out. A good example is the coming naval conference in 1935. Japan. Great Britain, and the United States are making theo- retical faces at each other, daring the other fellow to make a false move. In Europe today, France and Germany are ready to tear each other ' s heart out, in order to gain control over the Saar Basin. All over the world, the nations are ugly, straining at their bonds, and a feeling of mis- trust is the dominating factor in international affairs. Recently, I listened to a high official of the United States speaking on international relations. I was most impressed by the first part of one of his sentences. He said. In the next war, — and went on to say what would happen. That phrase typifies the general concensus of opinion in the world today. The general conclusion is that a next war is inevi- table. It will be the duty of tomorrow ' s statesmen to modify this reaction- ary statement. The future statesman will be a young man with a young mind, who will not be so sure that there will be a next war. He will treat all matters with an open mind, and will attempt to guide the opinion of his followers toward an international viewpoint. 192 T H E A R T I S A N W ' 35 EPHEBIANS As the end of each semester comes around, the entire campus in- dulges in speculation as to who the new Ephebians will be. Much interest is shown by the student body in this award, the highest honor which any Los Angeles city school can bestow. Chosen on the basis of one out of every forty of the graduating class, the Ephebians are judged as to char- acter, leadership, and scholarship by the faculty and the Senior A class. The following Commanders received this honor : Elinor Johnson, girls vice-president of the student body, and former girls vice-president of the Senior B class ; Mary Charlotte Roach, girls ' vice-president of the Senior A class ; Margaret Lamb, secretary of the Senior A class and former secretary of the Senior B class ; Eleanor Giroux, Girls League ])resident ; Xancy Holme, girls judge and gold seal graduate; Fred May, ])resident of the student body and former boys vice-president of the Senior B class; Harold Labriola. president of the class during both the Senior B and Senior A semesters ; Bill LeDuc, boys vice-president of the Senior A class ; John W ' ertin. manager of the student Iiody and former treasurer of the Senior B class ; Arthur Manella, scholarship society president and a gold seal bearer ; Sidnev Silver, president of the Senior Forum and a gold seal graduate. FEATURES 193 HIGMLIC.HTS OF OUR CITY CHAMI ' TOXSIII I ' M AUCH Bv Coach |amks 1 i.e vi;tt Undisputed champions of the city, our first outrii ht champ- ionship since 1921. this was the accomplishment of our 1934 Man- ual Arts football team. A some- what surprising achievement when we consider the lack of seasoned veterans on the squad. During the first week of l)ractice at the opening of the sea- son, it was apparent that much progress would have to be made in order to round out a fairly representative team. Two weeks of practice brought us face to face with Inglewood in our first practice game. There was nothing- startling about our playing in this game, although we managed to eke out a victory. It was the Beverly Hills game on the following Friday which proved to be the turning point of the season. Beaten, outcharged. and outplayed by the powerful Beverly team, the Manual team looked quite helpless on both offense and defense. Striking weaknesses in our lineup and in our general play were very evident in this game. Durmg a conference of the coaching staff, it was decided to make several changes in the lineup and at the same time built up our team for the following year. Kinnet was moved from guard to quarterback. LeDuc from tackle to guard. McBurnie was placed at tackle, Kelly was moved from center to right halfback, and Scolinos from guard to center. This was the mak- ing of our championship team. On successive Fridays, Washington and Fremont were defeated and it was in these games that our team began to show flashes of real coordination. Then came the crucial game with Poly ' s strong team, Coach Jim Blewett .194 T HE ARTISAN W ' 35 It is my belief that the Manual team hit its championship stride when it ran rough shod over Poly. The team clicked offensively and was alert and stubborn on defense. Excellent blocking and fine coordination were in evidence throughout the contest. Furthur evidence of a championship nature was seen in our victory over Huntington Park. The team reached its peak in the playoff games with Roosevelt and Hollywood. One of the most impressive sights of my life was to see our team take the opening kickoff in the Roosevelt game and then from our own twenty-two yard line make a march of seventy-eight yards to a touch- down without losing the ball. Here was more evidence of sheer power and versatility. Passes and running plays were expertly mixed by quarterback Kinnett in order to overpower a stubborn Roosevelt defense. A marvel- ous exhibition of accurate passing and receiving was put on by Nave and La Russo. Prior to this game La Russo had not been starting at right half, however the need for a speedy man carrying the ball on our re- verse play, receiving passes and possible interception prompted me to start La Russo. The way Louie vindicated my judgment was a revela- tion. Throughout the game our boys gave as fine an exhibition of offen- sive football as I have seen in high school for years. The use of our of- fense by Bud Kinnett was flawless, in fact he ran the team excellently all season. Every one of our boys played as a cog in a well oiled machine. The final game with Hollywood proved that our boys were real champions. Another fine display of aerial and running attack was far too much for the Redshirts. Nave was particularily brilliant in this game, run- ning back kicks, cutting through the line, running the ends and passing with deadly accuracy. The work of our line in opening large holes for the backs was excellent. It is my ]uirpose to mention a few of the factors that are usually evident in a championship team. A modern offense should consist of a running attack that is able to hit all portions of the defense with real strength and should also contain some deception. One clever running back who is occasionaily able to break away for a large gain is essential. An accurate passer with good receivers are very necessary in a modern of- fense. A good kicker is also of real value. Excellent coordination with every man carrying out his assignments efficiently is generally found in a championship team. It was apparent that the 1934 Manual team ful- filled these various requirements. In addition our boys were physically strong and agile, therefore, were able to withstand the charges of our op])onents. Above all. the members of this team were intelligent. Many of the boys are excellent students, in fact some came very close to fulfilling requirements for the Scholarship Society. It has been my experience our FEATURES 195 best teams are usually composed (jf a number of excellent students. We should be proud of the fine type of boys who represent us on the foot- ball field. Cireat credit is due to Coach Toney for the excellent work he did in developing a strong line. This article would not be complete without mentioning some of the side lights of the season. How many of you know that Doyle Nave ' s father collected about six four leaf clovers from his lawn each week and then gave them to his son on the day of each game? Doyle would then place them in one of his football shoes while dressing for each game. If this accounts for his excellent performances. I am going to have Mr. Nave collect enough four leaf clovers for all of our backfield men next year. During the Roosevelt game Louie La Russo carried a clipping from a morning newspaper which stated that he had been benched for indif- ferent play. Occasionally he would look at the clipping in order to give himself a fight talk. Quite effective I would say. When we started on our winning streak I was wearing a pair of brown trousers and a gray jacket. Needless to say, I continued to wear this same clothing at each game thereafter. It certainly must have been the winning costume. Coach Foster also wore a brown suit each Friday being certain that it would bring Manual victory. Predicting scores of the games was not in my realm, however, there is no doubt that we have an excellent prognosticator about school. He is none other than John Tully. He predicted all of Manual ' s victories and also was very close in his prediction of these scores. Everyone thought there was something wrong with him when he picked us to win from Roosevelt and Hollywood by 18 points. Yet he only missed each of these games by two points. It has been a great year for Manual. Let ' s hope we may have more like it. 196 THE ARTISAN N ' 35 Warrior Nan? P)V Earl Marks Doyle Nave W ' e have heard tell of the might in seasons past of the Toilers, how valiant deeds were wrought hy the prancing pigskinners of Manual. Oft Coach Blew- ett. with great strategy, wrenched away the victory from the grasp of his foes. Great was the fame of the coach, till even his foes must pay tribute to his glory. Then arose the ugly red and yellow demon that dwelt in the darkness of Boyle Heights. The said demon that ravaged about the ghastly gridiron was called Roosevelt. This bloody, grim, greedy, fierce, and pitiless monster took measure and slaughtered all those in the Northern League. Thence he slouched back homeward to his place of abode, boastfully exultant with the gore and glut of slaughter. Eame of the press was given to the monster and Cantor ; who howled for the blood of Manual. The good Coach Blewett sat joyless, bent with grief, and suffered sorrow for his warriors. Without ceasing did the coach brood, and read and watch the ])ress proclaim the strength and might of Roosevelt and Cantor. Then did the son of Nave (called Doyle) climb into his befendered fliver, and sought out the mighty coach. Nave, the strongest in might of manhood, was also of noble bearing, and many a heart in the bosoms of fair damsels ])ali)itated at the sight of him. Thus did Nave seek out the mighty coach in the gloom of the locker room. Nave spake: Mi thar coach. I hear thou hast need of me as a helf back. To be a bulwark on defense, and triple threat on offense is not at all hard for me. I, by my hand shall bring Cantor and the monster to judg- ment. I ween that if death take me, and the monster doth prevail. I pray thee let him bear my bloody cor])se to his trophy room. Football goeth as she must. Then the stalwart coach of the Toilers was assured of succor, and hied Nave forth to W ' rigley ' s apple orchard to do Imttle with the demon aiid Cantor. The wrath of Roosevelt was terrible, because of the glory of the good ccjach and the men of Manual. They sat in flush of wrath and swelling anger. They howled for the coming of Manual, and bided the time of the ijame. FEATURES 197 From the locker room and misty showers strode Cantor and the demon. To crush the Toilers with power plays was the i)lan of the mon- ster. The spacious bleachers were clamorous with the din and groaned un- der the weight of howling rooters. Panic fell on all the Toilers, on every scrub and senior. To save the team ' s glory, those brave hearted Toilers went into the fight. The gore was knee deep. Maddened were the raging strugglers ; bitter and hateful was each to the other alive. Then did Nave batter Can- tor and the monster, Roosevelt, until his line cracked asunder and back field grew faint. Great fame of the press was given to Nave and his team mates. Cantor and the monster fled away vanquished, they seek that place of abode reft of glory. Back then from the apple orchard of Wrigley, joyfully went many a Toiler in his Ford. Now and again, striving one against another, they measured the asphalt roads with their rattling wrecks, singing with hoarse voices the war crv of the Toilers and forefot not Dovle, the son of Nave. 198 T H E A R T I S A N W 35 COMMENCEMENT PROGRAM Friday Evening.

Artisan Editor Earl Marks By the Editor The time has come when I must thank my staff for the hard work I have put into this Artisan. Every year the Editor must reel and stagger under the heavy load, while his staff is ready to take his place in case the Editor dies. (I hear that Bill Dickson, my most able Associate Editor, is study- ing to be a mortician.) But let us speak of something pleas- ant. Nice day, isn ' t it? This year I was very fortunate in having Kay Long as my Art Editor. She did a fine job at supervising the drawing of the section plates. Then there is Bert Twiligar. You don ' t know Twilegar? Congratula- tions! (Please! Bert! Quit hitting me!) He is the lad that wrote the sports, and told how the playful pachyderms of Manual prepdom pranced prettily in pursuit of the prized pigskin, and City Championship. Roland Weatherhead did a fine piece of work in writing the calendar. Because of the illness of Honald Parks, Photographer, an extra burden of taking and developing the Artisan pictures fell upon Ronald. I sincerely thank Ronald for the time and effort that he contributed to this Artisan. Genevieve Moore handled the Literary Contest very well. She also took care of the Artisan publicity. Science has just proven that owls are very stupid birds. Did you ever notice that owlish look on Sid Silver ' s pan? (Hello Sid, ol ' pal. ol ' sock, ol ' kid.) Sid wrote the features and forensics section, which reminds me ; don ' t ever get into an argument with Sid, as I did. He is Manual ' s best debater. All kidding aside. Mr. Silver was the most dependable member on my staff, and a true journalist! 204 THEARTISANW ' 35 The Mad Genius. Irwin Markowitz. gets credit for subscril)ing to ' College Humor and copying the jokes for the Artisan. It was very nice for him to do that, don ' t you think? (or do you?) I honestly believe that our jokes were outstanding this year; don ' t you, Irwin? (Oh, yes, I thought you would!) Harold Jones was a big help to me this year. He beat up Bill Dickson for me. (I didn ' t have time, heh, heh.) He also lent me his pencil. Harold has a cute Ford roadster with a radio in it, girls! Morris Cohen is the fellow who gathered your sheckles when you paid for your Artisan. He also hunted ads; a great job. (He gets paid.) Do you like your Senior pictures ? Send your orchids to Margaret Matsumoto. She served as design editor. Miss Virginia Dwyer took care of the snapshots and spent many a sleepless night in printing and developing them. By the way, Don Marsh (he ' s a good egg) was very helpful. He supplied me with many of the football pictures which you like so well. Ah ! Now I must speak of the young lady that handled my fan mail. Marjorie Schmitt, a clever person. She was an excellent typist. All the hard-working boys on the linotype machines have her to thank for type- written copy. Speaking seriously and most sincerely, my hat is off to Mr. Greenup, the Chairman of the Printing Department. Although he scared me fright- fully many a time by reminding me of copy dead-lines. I am proud to think that I had such a person as he for an instructor and adviser. Mr. Nelson spent much of his time in seeing that the Artisan copy was linotyped correctly. Most any time he could be seen peering over his glasses with tired eyes, looking in vain for some student printer to read copy. The press work was done under the watchful eye of Phil Barrow. If you have noticed that certain dazed look on his face, just remember he has had to do the presswork for many Artisan editors. My adviser. Mr. Hansen kept me from making my serious mistakes in this Artisan, and taught me how to get work out of my stafT. He also rescued me once when my stafif had me cornered. I wish to thank Mr. Hansen publicly for this noble deed. Then there is Mr. Phil Ossify (where is he?) Schwanny, my pal; did a great deal to inject some fine art into this Artisan. Gus Arriola and Felix Zelenknuts Zelenka helped Schwanny make me laugh whenever T felt l)lue. Needless to say, they did a good job of it. Mr. Reeder made the book-binding students slave over the Artisan covers. He did a splendid job in the l)inding of the books. HUMOR 205 Leona Maiij)t requested that T tell you all what a splendid i;irl she is. ( There you are Let)na, I told them !) Glenn Smith, one of the many Smith hoys, did more linotyping for the Artisan than any other hoy in the shop. He is the most willing worker that I know. In conclusion, I wish to thank the following students, who despite the thanklessness of their joh, put forth their hest effort to make the Ar- tisan a success. Printing Howard Burtt, Burley Carlson.

[207] Reds Prove to be Poor Sportsmen From the Mosquito, school paper of the Moscow Mosque Junior Cllitch, comes the report that the only ones suffering from the communistic movements are the athletes. Basktball sharks claim that the long beards they have to wear im- pairs their aim. Football players complain that, since the quarterback is unable to call signals to the satisfaction of all, that method was directly opposed to the ideals of equality. Therefore every play a vote is taken and the most popular play is elected. In event of a tie they have a free-for-all to settle the matter satisfactorily. The Mosquito says that Mosque will not have a cross country team this year. The team was running out in the country one day when a gust of wind caught the heavy appendages of the athletes and blew them up the noses and mouths of the runners, strangling all but one. His beard was so fluzzy he was tickled to death. Ah well, sighs their Spurts Edieor, that ' s one more championship Mos- que won ' t lose. Congratulations To Mr. James Ackerman James (Ackerman) has recently been promoted to head office boy in the Doris Keddie Beauty Shoppe. Con- gratulations, old man. Mr. Ackerman a modest sort, only answered with an oh fudge when beseeched for a statement by your reporter.

Musings of an Editor Have you ever seen a dream walk- ing? Neither have I. I wish I did. I thought perchance you had. Oh gee i wish i could find somebody who has seen a dream walking.

The murder- ess is at present in the jail. That is where they should have put the husband years ago. But as long as old lady Goosepimple is healthy, that is all that matters. (She wont be long.) She contends that the contact of rope with her neck is bad for her dyspepsia. Why not an iron chain? Aunt Dolpha ' s Corner — Dear Aunt: I ' ve got three questions, (1) Is it proper to hold the hands high when shaking hands? (2) Should a man tuck his napkin in the top of his vest? Eddy Ket Dear Eddy: (1) Not unless it is done to guard the chin in case the other takes a swing at it. (2) No, No, No, Never. It should always be tucked into the collar. Auntie (Hyababee) Dolpha Reporter Fired by Editor The Gazette ' s star reporter, Wes- ley Nelson, got into some difficulties the other day when the truth happen- ed to hurt. It seems that he was sent to write up the Sr. Bee Christmas Prom and whn he finally got his copy in it was about two hours late and very care- l essly written. Markowitz reproved the lad the next day by quoting an extract: Among the most beautiful girls was Dick Clatworthy. Now look here, you idiot, Clat- worthy isn ' t a girl! Clatworthy is one of our principal stockholders, the Mad Genius shouted for fifteen min- utesutes, I can ' t help that, finally inter- rupted Nelson, That ' s where he was.

There lies before us many advantages and disadvantages that those of the past have never reaHzed. The men and women of this class must blaze new trails to success, as difficult, as perilous as those the hardy, stout-hearted frontiersmen blazed when forming this mighty continent. There is no doubt but what civilization has progressed greatly in the past decade, and there is no doubt in our minds, but what it will pro- gress more rapidly during the next decade. Even greater things are in store for us. Each one will have his part to do in making this, a greater, more durable nation. Some will make unbelievable discoveries in science, others will discover and explore new, unknown lands, still others will be the law- yers, doctors, writers, artists and statesmen that will help to make up a successful existence. But the majority of us will be content to be home- makers, and produce the generation that will, soon, take our place. In realizing what lies before us, we have kept ourselves physically, mentally, and morally fit. Because of the frankness and companionship that now exists between the men and women, we have developed a more intelligent, broadminded outlook on life. The time-worn prejudices and taboos that have so long stunted advancement have given way to the more intelligent translation put upon them. The depression that faces us. troubles us but little. With courage, grit, and patience, we can overcome it. destroy it, and start anew. With them we have made many Ui w friendships that will last many years. We have been treated as men and women at Manual, have been guided, not led, in the proper direction. It is with a sigh of regret that we take leave of this old school that has harbored so many cherished memeories. Before long a new building will have sprung u]), but in the future we will often remember the happy hours we spent, in the city of the bungalows.

Prepared for any kind of weather Ready for whatever came. Gradually the road grew rough Big boulders blocked the way ; To keep on climbing was mighty tough And grew harder every day. You grew weary — suddenly stumbled And fell, no more to rise. Those last few words you mumbled Brought salty tears to my eyes With dry cracked lips you said adieu. Then we went climbing on ; And now the long journey ' s through. But you our friends are gone. Now the long-sought goal is near And at the top we stand. We gladly start over, if you could be here To smile — and shake us l)v the hand. in mcmofiiR ORGANIZATIONS Ever since the beginniiiJL; i)f time there have been organization s of some sort, and as the world advanced, organizations and clubs became more important in the lives of the people, until at the present time we are en- couraged, even as tiny children, to form and belong to the proper kind of clubs. When we enter high school it becomes almost a necessity that we ha e some s])ecial group, made up of the right kind of students, to express ourselves to. and with whom U) become thoroughly acquainted. Itvery 1)10. when he comes to Manual Arts, is invited to join a club that deals with a subject interesting to him. From the great selection offered, the newcomer finds one which he thinks he would like. Upon joining he finds other boys and girls, new like himself. Clinging closely to each other they listen carefully to the older, wiser students. Later they j(jin more clubs, entering in the spirit of the idea. By the time they are seniors they have learned the art of leading — the art of following — and have made invaluable friendships. The organizations here at Manual include the scholarship society, the merit board, girls ' self government, boys ' self government and others. All character builders! The finest boys and girls in the school belong to these organizations, and everyone is welcome who can fill a ])lace. At the ])resent time, a Ixjy ' s ambition, from the time he enters Man- ual, is to become a sc|uire or a knight, while the girl ' s goal is to become a member of the Tri-Y or the G. A. A. Naturally, through striving for these goals, they are going to main- tain a high standard, morally and ])hysically, — so that Manual may be ])roud to call them a Manualite. Webster, long ago, defined an organization as a political combination, but all through the ages this definition has grown into something greater than that. An organization, to us, means a chance to make new friends. become leaders and followers; in all, tcj become a more advanced, intelli- gent person. ( )ne who can look himself in the face an say.

THb: I ' .OY.S ' COURT The Boys ' Court of Manual Arts High School has had a very success- ful term due only to the exceptional ability of its officers. Under the stern hand of jack Sexton, sergeant-at-arms, the court has been kept orderly and attentive. Through the energetic work of Ploward Morrissey, the posi- tion of bailiff has been well filled. The attorneys, Bud Monroe, defense; and M. A. Hunt, prosecution ; have been active and their knowledge of law has been especially helpful to the court. The seconds of the court have been kept in neat order because of the efficiency of the clerk, Abie Vishnevsky. The presiding officer, Sumner Blaha. has meted out just and firm decisions. 30 THE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 () R G A N I Z A T I () N S 31 THE SCHOLARSHIP SOCIETY Under the capable leadership of Dan Kaufmann. the Mimerian Society has achieved great success this semester. Starting out with a larger membership than ever before, numbering 58 boys and 112 girls, and greater amount of enthusiasm among the students and faculty, a big drive for 200 members by June was planned. Twenty-six students from the ' iking class were candidates for gold .seal honors and life membership in the California Scholarship Federation. The Scolarship Society aided the BlO ' s in bringing back the BIO Junior Scholarship Society, an organization which had been suspended for two terms following the March ' 33 earthquake. All students who made scholarship grades in the junior high school were eligible. The Mimerians were active in the social life of the school. Their first social affair was an afternoon party for the BlO ' s. On the evening of May 24, the social-minded scholars held their semi-annual dance amidst sweet music and novel decorations. The week of April 1 to April 5 was set aside as Scholarship Week, with the idea of showing the importance of learning. To carry out this theme, a special copy of the Daily was edited, posters were jilaced all over the campus and mottoes on scholarship written on the main l)ulletin board. Tn addition sjieakers were sent to BIO homerooms to enlist interest in scholarship. The cabinet for the term was composed of Dan Kaufmann, president ; Virginia Lee Ziegler, girls ' vice-president ; Marguerite Wilson, secretary ; Ellen Bishop, assistant secretary ; Charles Heywood, treasurer. Faculty advisers for the semester were Ida Isabella Jones, Willis Newton, and argaret McLaughlin. 32 THE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 THE DERATE SQUAD The Manual Arts Debate Squad has enjoyed one of the busiest seasons in recent years during the past term. With the semester only half complete the members of the squad had participated in one league debate and over thirty interscholastic practice debates. The league debate was on the California tax question. The team of Frank Feldman and Bob McClanahan u]:)held the negative for Manual against Hollywood, in this debate, losing by a slight margin. James Kay- lor and Sam Borevitz worked the affirmative of this question, participating in several practice debates. The majority of the thirty practice debates were on the munitions question. The teams working on this question were; on the affirmative. Bob Vancott and Al Friedman, on the negative, Harold Fothergill and Norman Murry, Summer Blaha and Sidney Troxell. Frank Feldman and Bob McClanahan worked both sides of the question. The rest of the class debated the Mussolini question, but as they were inexperienced they participated in no outside debates. The squad debated with Hollywood, Franklin, and Los Angeles High Schools and with the U. C. L. A. and U. S. C. frosh teams. The burden of scheduling and managing the debates fell on the shoulders of Frank b eldnian and Bob McClanahan, manager and ca])- tain respectively. The s(|uad was honored b} ' having one of its members, Sidney Troxell. as Manual ' s re]M-esentative in the W ' orld Friendship Oratorical Contest. The squad was honored by having one of its members, Sidney efforts of Mr. Moore, adviser, coach and friend and to Mr. William Hensey Jr., student coach. ORGANIZATIONS 33 % i JUNIOR FORUM As each term passes, the Junior Forum seems to take a more active position in Manual oratorical circles. This year under Gordon Little, ])resi- dent, the clul) was al)le to re-estahlish the traditional dehate hetween the junior and Senior Forum. This dehate was only one of the nieetiui s where these two or aniza- tions held joint meetings. The officers were Gordon Little, iiresident; Joye Davis, girls ' vice- president ; Florence Blurock, secretary ; Jack Carlon, treasurer ; Ed Davis, puhlicity manager. The sponsor. Miss Johnson, commended the officers highly at the semi-annual cluh hanquet. This was one of the hig events of the term and was acclaimed a huge success. 34 THE ARTISAN S ' 35 SENIOR FORUM The Senior Forum, the foremost speech organization of Manual Arts High School has completed, without a doubt, one of the most outstanding terms in the history of its existence. Commencing with the tryouts, at which almost two hundred students displayed their forensic ability in an effort to gain membership, the Forum has broken all previous records. The pre-earthquake custom of holding meetings every Monday of the term was restored by the president, Harold Fothergill. making the meetings more coordinated. The meetings featured a widely varied pro- gram consisting of debates, panel discussions, open forum discussions, and outside speakers. Other outstanding programs were the World Friend- ship Contest, the Declamation Contest, and entertainment in the form of social activities. A get-acquainted party started the Forum activities while the installation banquet concluded a successful term. The officers who guided the destiny of the Forum throughout the term were: Harold Fothergill, president; Carol Brittle, girls ' vice-presi- dent; George Smith, boys ' vice-president; Elizabeth Schaal, secretary; Scott Albright, treasurer; Charles Christensen, sergeant-at-arms. Mr. Moore is the faculty sponsor. STORY AND VERSE 35 Hi BIS P ' I HK i | ' BQ|||||i T i 2ttg H Bb ; SBbJ m f SK HB ' Eg jP p ' _i y j 4 9 B — II B- f - z ' . , ' mi :m B H H 1 il w.

Its monthly meetings held in the Little Theatre are open to all who desire to become acquainted with problems of international af- fairs. Mr. Maile, the sponsor of the clul), has made the meetings this term exceedingly interesting by securing both Dr. Alalbone (iraham and Dr. Harold G. Calhoun, eminent authorities on world affairs, to speak before the Manual Arts students. Debates and discussions on current internation- al ques tions aroused much student interest. Our World Friendship Club is not only concerned with the students of Manual Arts but it is part of a huge state-wide organization which in- terests itself in world peace. As members of that organization the execu- tive committee participated in the all-city banquet of the World Friend- ship Clubs and in the World Friendship Clubs State Convention. The executive committee of the organization for this term were, Sidney Troxell, chairman; Rol)crt McClanahan, vice-chairman; Frank Feldtman, Sally Fosterling.

Such authors as Dickens, Poe and Shakespeare will never be out-dated, but each decade is producing writers who are nearly as great. Booth Tarkington ' s works are ever becoming more popular, and Mark Twain ' s inimital)le wit can never die. Then there are some who burn like a flame but are quickly extin- guished. In the swift moving trend of modern life, there is little time to appreciate great authors. Novels and short stories that take little concen- tration and education have made up, for the most part, the reading matter of the world for the past few years. The younger people of today, however, are again turning to O ' Henry, Keats, Burns and others. In the high schools and colleges we are en- couraged to read good books. Detective stories and ultra-modern love stories are becoming a thing of the past. As for poetry, there is a great deal of free verse being written and published but most of this too will soon die away. Dorothy Parker has swept her country with the light verse she writes, Gertrude Stein, master of the unintelligible, has had her rein of glory, but we still cling to Whittier. Longfellow, and Riley. As the years go by our bookshelves will acquire more and more good books, our ]il)raries will be full of those who appreciate fine arts and the cheap trash that has been filling our bookcases will be a thing of the past. Good literature is coming to the front ! STO-RV.„y€fiS€ 40 THEARTISANS ' 35 AT FIRST SKJilT 1)V Thelma Nevarez Let us leave these hot, crowded surroundings, and take a vagahond trip far away — first on a tramp steamer. Leaving it at the dock of an evil-smelHng small port, we set out on horseback, up through the hills, then past mountains, and lastly, shall I say, by burro? — through a hot desert, on and on, until we come in view of a small town in the Latin Americas. After riding at a slow gait on top the balking burro, beneath the sweating and maddening sun, we gaze in speechless wonder upon the scene l)efore us ! There is no hot sand and endless cacti, but a beautiful and sleepy oasis — if you want to call it that. Our journey has ended. The story un- folds : The house of El Mayor of the town is most wonderful to behold. Big, shady palms caress the walls of the old and stately building. The patio has flowers that perfume the rooms surrounding it, with their dreamy and romantic scent. Li the center is a pool — a large, clear pool. Lying on the cool brick walk by the pool, one day was a small boy, teaching his dog, Pancho, some tricks, which, from the pupil ' s actions, were not being received with much attention. Two girls were sewing ' neath the shade of a big palm tree, their tongues going as fast as their needles. Every once in a while they glanced cautiously at their brother, but he was still patiently trying to teach his very unruly i)up tricks. And what were the dear girls talking about? The weather? But surely the wether did not excite these senoritas. who have been accus- tomed to it all their lives. But what could they be talking about? Ah!! Army station church uniforms- dashing officers ! Aha! Blessed Sacrament, said Angela, crossing herself, If our dear father only knew our sudden desire to go to church every day, he would — she raised her eyes to the sky, in a very despairing fashion. Sh not so loud. Do you want the little devil to hear us? warned l)retty Antonia. But glancing at Mario, the devil in question, their fears vanished. Mario finally gave up his patient efforts of teaching the pup and rolled over, closing his eyes, and a few minutes later, was apparently aslee]) after his exhausting efforts. The sisters continued their inter- esting conversation in little louder tones, now that the brother was out of reckoning. S T () R Y A N D V E R S E ■ 41 My Fernando, he is so liandsonic. I think his moustache is very l)ecoming. nunmiurecl Angela. Rosita sniffed disdainfully. She didn ' t h ' ke moustaches. Felipe looks very dashing in his imiform. and his face is smooth shaven, and so on and on they chattered, until they were called in for dinner. The next morning, properly escorted hy their little brother, the girls set off to church. Apparently, the two beautiful senoritas were well known, as they indeed were, from the many smiles and greetings ])e- stowed on them in the street. Their way to the chtnxh, as it very opportunely happened, took them by the office of the military post, where sure enough, two tall and slender lieutenants were each, surprisingly, about to start on some busi- ness. Lately, this errand took them past the church, and, as the young ladies came out and the gentlemen ' s businesses were disposed of. the damsels were escorted as far towards home as they dared go. And Mario? No sooner was he out of sight of his mother, who watched sharply until they were gone, than he would start stoning a poor passing burro, with some very choice pebbles. Thus entertaining himself with high glee, his leaving likewise accounted for some of the sunny disposition to the sisters he had left far behind, but not alone ! One late afternoon while returning home from an errand, Mario was stopped by an officer — Felipe. How would you like to earn a peso, my little man? asked the officer and gentleman. Mario smiled very innocently and nodded. Together, the note and peso changed hands, with carefully given instructions. Mario smiled broadly to himself. This sim])leton didn ' t know he was Rosita ' s brother. Down the block he was stopped l)y another figure, familiar to him. A htUTied conversation. Here, too, a silver piece and a note changed hands. Marif) left the other fool. Fernando, too. didn ' t know he was Angela ' s sm.nll. dear, little brother. Oh well — now to deliver the notes, and for some fim. Very secretly he called Rosita aside and gave her the note. She kissed him and called him a dear, and begged him not to say a word to a soul, adding another silver peso to his growing fortune. Catching Angela alone, he too gave her a note. acce])ted a coveted box of candy, but dodged the kisses. In the privacy of the room which she and Angela shared, Rosita opened her note. Dear One, it ran, you ' re as sweet and precious as an angel above, but lovelier. Ah! Pnit how can I put in cold paper what I want to say 42 T H E A R T I S A N S ' 3 5 for your ears alone? Tonight, my love, at ten, on the east halcony. 1 heg you to spare a few minutes! Your humble and adoring servant, F. And. under the pretext of seeking some preserves, Angela read her note in the pantry. ' ' Sweet One: To me you ' re as sweet — no, sweeter, than the roses that bloom with their rarest perfumes. Tonight, at ten, a word, a few moments with you on the west balcony. Yours, - That night, after the usual good night kisses were dutifully given to their parents, the girls retired supposedly. Why don ' t you go to sleep, Rosa? asked Angela, nervously. Oh, I ' m not very sleepy. It is too hot. I think I ' ll step out in the balcony for a little fresh air. Perhaps that will make me sleepy. So Rosita departed. Angela, watching anxiously, sighed with relief as Rosita walked towards the east balcony. No sooner had her sister left than Angela jumped out of bed, slipped on a gown, and went to the other balcony. You are so lovely, whispered a deep voice in the darkness. Rosita sighed in sheer happiness. She plucked a rose from the rambling bush and handed it towards the voice. The wooer not only caught the rose, but the hand also, and started kissing it fervently. Rosita gasped — this was not her Felipe. This man had a prickly moustache. Who are you ? she demanded, stamping her feet. Fernando, Angela mia. Angela! — I ' m not — how dare you? She slapped the astonished Fernando and ran inside. Fernando was. crestfallen ; it wasn ' t Rosita he wanted, but Angela. Rosita entered the room, and came face to face with a very indig- nant sister, who too at that moment stepped from the balcony. They made known their feelings and were soon re-reading exchanged notes. Aha — Mario! They looked meanly at each other, their Latin blood fairly boiling. Tomorrow, dear sister, he ' ll get his deservings. hissed Rosalie, and turned over on her side. Next morning at the breakfast and the usual inquiries as to their beloved parents ' health, the girls ate their breakfast, smiling at dear little Mario very sweetly. But Mario smiled very weakly in reply and didn ' t enjoy his breakfast one little bit. S T ( ) R Y A N D V E R S E 43 Breakfast over. Angela asked her mother very poHtely if Mario would accompany them for a walk to huy some emhroidery thread at the store, and i)erhaps to pick wild flowers? But forehoding fears made Mario ask uneasily, Mother, don ' t you want me to do any special errand for you ? No, now run along with your sisters, like a gentleman should. But mother, are you sure you don ' t have any real special errand for me? Mario, don ' t argue. Go with your sisters. The boy turned resignedly with the air of a martyr. He walked out of the room slowly between his sisters — to his doom. The day was young, clear, and beautiful. Up a little hillside path a little peon, bearding a few cattle, trudged. He was whistling merrily to himself when the tune was interru])ted by the loud and lusty bawling of someone. This outburst came from behind a clump of bushes, a few yards away. With eyes and mouth wide open, the youngster ga])ed at the sight before him. Two dainty but very angry young ladies were the cause of the musi- cal interruption. They were tending to a wriggling lusty-lunged little devil. One girl held firmly to the ear of the victim, and while he was made to bend over, the other creature would give him a resounding smack. The girls changed places after a while. The cow-herder was enjoying himself immensely. When he saw who the culprit was, he gave out a joyous whoop. Mario was known I)y great and small in the the town — his ])opularity was astounding. The two girls, hearing the new noise, turned suddenly, and very haughtily thrust painful Mario behind them. What do you want here? demanded Angela imperiously. Go ! the sisters raised threatening hands. Without waiting for further words, the cow-herder scuttled. Mama, said Mario, it is time for our daughters to think of mar- riage. Si, that is true. Don Mario stroked his long moustache very tenderly, and thought- fully continued, I am bringing two gentlemen tonight for dinner. I have already met their parents. They come from respectable families and are fine young men. Dona clasped her fat hands romantically, and then hurriedly began to give orders for dinner l)efitting the hou.se of Don Mario Castana, mayor of the town. That night R(jsita and Angela sadly donned new lovely dresses and went slowlv down the stairs with sinking, heavv hearts. 44 T H E A R T I S A N S ' 3 5 Upon entering the room, they were duly introduced, their eyes down- cast. My daughters, gentlemen, said Don Mario proudly. To make their acknowledgement proper, the girls gazed at their guests. Rosita to the dark eyes of her Felipe and Angela to the twinkling eyes of Fernando. Then Mario, the little man of the house, was introduced to the gentlemen, who howed politely and recognized him. Both gentlemen had the feeling that there was one meml)er of the family with whom good terms wouldn ' t be mutual. On a bench in the patio, the parents sat and talked about the charming young men who were, at that moment, being shown the wonders of the beautiful patio by the daughters of the house. It was, sighed the romantic old lady, love at first sight. Don Mario ' s eyes twinkled as he replied, Si, queridamia, love at first sight. S T O R Y A N D V E R S E • 45 OUT ON THE DEEP By Willie D. Webb As vacation time draws near I begin to think of things to do and places to go. There are so many things to occupy one ' s time that some- times it is a real problem to decide which will prove most profitable as well as pleasurable. Last summer was to me the most enjcjyable vacation I have ever spent. I sincerely hope that each of you may have the opportunity of spending such a delightful summer and experiencing the thrill of sailing the sea in your own private yacht. There are so many pleasant places to visit along the coast of South- ern California that you may spend an entire summer just cruising around within a radius of a few miles from Los Angeles, and still have the thrill of an ocean voyage. One of our trips last summer was a moonlight cruise. W ' e left the docks in Wilmington at midnight and sailed out into a sea as calm as a lake. The beams from the light house tower were mirrored in the placid waters of the sea. The light of a gorgeous moon seemed to paint the universe with silver and for the first time in my life I experienced some of the joys tuned to the rolling, rocking rhythm of the sea. Our little craft, a forty foot cruiser powered with a two hundred twenty-five horse power Hall-Scott motor, was quite a contrast to the ancient sailing vessels of these hardy old salts of yesteryear, and the motive of our jaunt was somewhat dif- ferent but the thrill of sailing the seas must have been somewhat the same. 46 T H E A R T I S A N S ' 3 5 With daddy at the hehn and mother, sister and friends along I felt as if I should like to sail on and on to the land of make believe. We sang to the stars and shouted in lusty voices to the fisher folk as we passed their little fleet of wooden tubs along the kelp beds where they were casting their nets. As we neared the Island of Catalina we could see the hills along the eastern end, raising their peaks high above the pictur- esque little village of Avalon and casting long black shadows across Ava- lon Bay. It was about two o ' clock in the morning when we dropped anchor in Avalon Bay and as I stood out on the fore deck and watched the flying- fish sail gracefully along the surface of the ocean and watched the little white caps break along the rugged shore line. I made a little wish for all my friends. I wished that each one of them could sometime in their life, experience the thrill that I had. I am sure I shall always thrill to the smell of the sea weed, the taste of the salty mist and the sound of breaking waves upon the sands and rocks along the shore. So anchors aweigh and let ' s sail out on the deep to a magic isle once again. S T O R Y A N D V E R S E . 47 WAITING FOR THE POSTMAN Bv Ruth Beeson Have you ever waited for the postman to bring you a letter from a distant pal ? Have you ever waited for the postman to bring your favorite magazine or paper ? While waiting, a thousand thoughts pass though your mind. Suppose your pal didn ' t write, suppose your magazine is late, sup- pose the postman has already come, suppose the stamp on your pal ' s letter has come off. After thinking of all the bad things that could have happened you decide to go out on the porch and sit so you can ' t miss the postman. After sitting for what seems like an hour, you hear a kind voice give the cheerful command to come and do dishes. Much to your disgust you drag yourself to your feet and someway manage to get yourself to the kitchen where you start to wash the dishes. Suddenly you crane your neck to look out of the window. Surely you see a shadow ; it ' s the postman you think, and dropping soap, dish towels, brushes and pans you dash to the front door. Much to your disgust you dis- cover it was only a bill peddler, and sorrowfully you return to your task of washing the dishes. Horrors ! What a sight meets your eyes, you ' ve broken one of your mother ' s best dishes. The only thought in your mind now is to glue it to- gether. You dash for the glue and upset the box of salt which politely decorates the floor as if there had been a tiny snow storm. Suddenly you hear a step on the porch. Surely that is the postman, and carefully setting down the dish so as not to re-break it you run to the door, barely missing your sister ' s pet cat asleep in the middle of the floor. Great is your anger when you discover it is your friend, to whom you owe a nickel. You pay him off and slamming the door resu me your job of mending the plate and washing the dishes. After being rudely interrupted several times by the doorbell you com- ])lete your job and sink into the best rocking chair to rest and await the coming of the postman. The doorbell rings once more and you jump up and dash to the door, but your pocket catches on the corner of the table, and the table, glad of a chance to rest its burden of books and papers, tips over. When you fi- nally reach the door, you see only the gas bill deliverer. What luck, you think and after receiving the bill, come back to straighten up the front room. Finally you see the grav uniformed postman and walk carefully to the door, lest you make a bigger mess. He hands you two letters from distant pals and your favorite magazine and you contentedly settle down on your couch, to enjoy the fruits of hard labor. 48 T HE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 BEAUTY WILL LIVE (Written for the two thousandth anniversary of the hirth of Horace.) By Yolanda Samuels I do not know wliat Beauty is — yet only Beauty will live when other things must falter — Surely this maple leaf will never alter With the new Spring — nor will the rain he lonely ; And if the lines of Horace we are speaking Break from two thousand years of lovely singing Into the raucous cry of l)lack crows winging. Into the stupid drip of faucets leaking — Then, only then, will they be lost completely. Even when she has lain in hidden places Beauty will walk with stronger paces — Not as a ghost that we remember sweetly — For Beauty has never died — and even the weeping Of silent eyes can wake her from her sleeping. S T U R Y A N D V E R S E 49 MY DOG 1j l)()Kt)THY ShEFFLER He has beautiful mahogany colored, slightly wavy hair, a massive white chest, and long silky black ears. He comes well above my shoulders when he stands on his hind legs, and yet he insists upon being a lap dog. Whenever I am sitting comfortably and quietly he comes lumbering up (giving the impression of a baby earthquake), gives me a doggy kiss, and leaps into my lap. He doesn ' t fit very well so he squirms and wiggles and wags his bushy tail with an innocent happiness. My love melts slowly. He is, of course, a St. Bernard, and although his eyes droop naturally, oiving a wistful, tragic air, they have a wicked, impish gleam sometimes, which betrays his thoughts of devastation to a pillow or a book. I suppose I really expect too much of him, but it ' s easy to forget he is only a seven months old pup, when he covers so much territory. Berne (that ' s his name) has one weakness — eating; even at so tender an age, he consumes almost two pounds of meat a day. And does that fill him up? No, sir! He occasionally eats a rosebush, thorns and all, for dessert. He especially likes other folks ' dinner. He once ate three lamb chops off the sink before I could rescue them from horrible mutilation by his huge jaws. Berne has also enjoyed the greater part of a fried chicken, snatching it from the skillet, never fearing the popping grease. I suppose the pangs of hunger overcame all fear. St. Benards are usually exceptionally intelligent dogs. (Famed for saving the lives of persons lost in the Alps.) Berne, of course is differ- ent. He seemingly has a will of his own. If he doesn ' t want to fetch the ball, he doesn ' t. Many times I ' ve lost my patience and scolded him severely, but he looks at me with such a pathetic, melancholy expression that I for- give and forget. (Maybe I ' m wrong; he isn ' t so dumb!) His doghouse was to be a masterpice of architectural ingenuity. We built it five feet in length and width and four feet in height. Now ! at only seven months he has to lie in it diagonally ! His yard covers two full lots — plenty of room for him to tear around in (and tear up in). He carries blanket after blanket from his house out onto the lawn. Sometimes, I think the place looks like a burial of bones. He really has a beautiful, sympathetic nature, though. When he tripped me once and I fell downstairs, he grew quite frantic and pawed and stepped all over me to find out what was the matter. Berne likes to take long walks, and I feel terribly proud with so fine a brute pulling me along in his leash. I have often dreamed of the time when he would rescue me from the merciless clutches of some sinister fate. But Berne, the ferocious beast, gleefully dashes up to each passerby and greets him with an affection born of long friendship! 50 THE ARTISAN S ' 35 COMPENSATION By J.

STORY AND VERSE 51 IN THE NTC.HT Bv Ganell Stei ' anek The wind came last night It circled ' round our house In howling gust of pain. It was a solid wall of air Rushing everywhere. The wind came last night Roaring wild, like a beast Behind a barred door. I thought a stranger came last night I heard him step softly on the stair. He put the key in quietly Then his bulk slipped Through the door. His footsteps padded like The kitten ' s on the kitchen floor. Steathily he approached our room I prayed to God that we Might live to see the morning light. All was quiet for awhile And then I fell asleep. TWO WINDS The hard, strong wind That brings hurried Tales of stormy seas. The hard, cold wind That stings the face And sets the pulses throbbing. The soft, lingering wind That soothes a weary soul. And caresses the cheek W ' ith intimate touches. The warm, sweet wind That whisi)ers nature ' s Lovelv secrets in the ear. 52 T 11 E ARTISAN S ' 3 5 TOO LATE By Louise Gregg Lucy was but twenty and had experienced more hard knocks than most girls ever know, but this was the first time she had really Ijeen des- perate. When just a small child both of her parents died leaving her without a relative in the world and with debts, which fortunately she did not have to pay. She was taken to the Orphans ' Home where, until she was eight- een, she simply existed from day to day. She became, outwardly, very si- lent and unemotional, but inwardly she was filled with a torrent of hate and revolt. The matron grew to dislike her because she, in some unexplain- able way. gave the impression of having a will greater than that of the matron. Consequently nothing was done which went too heavily against Lucy ' s will as the matron feared she would refuse and urge the other orphans to side against the matron. This was a thing they all wished to do, but had no leader, so did not know how to go about it. Lucy would have been that leader if the matron had not made sure that she had no cause for being led to that point. Lucy never was adopted and when, at eighteen, she gained lilierty she went out into a world that she did not know a thing about. She found a fairly good job doing housework and came to know hap- piness for the first time. Her employer was kind and generous and Lucy was allowed a great deal of freedom. Two happy years went by. and then her employer and family decided to go west. They were not able to take Lucy with them. Once again she found herself without work. She had $35. saved and wasn ' t particularly worried. She found a small room suitable for her needs and then applied to the employment bureau for work, and spent her time searching for a job. A month went swiftly and her money had dwindled to a few dollars. She moved into a cheaper room way out at the end of town. Hopelessly each day she looked for work. On a bright Sunday morning she found herself without a cent and her rent falling due the next day. She knew that the landlady would compel her to move if she did not pay it. as she was badly in need of money her- self. Lucy (lid not know where else she could live. Also her clothes were getting very shabby and her suit needed cleaning badly. She had nearly walked holes in the soles of her shoes looking for work, because she could not afford paying car fare. She jumped up and nervously began pacing the floor of her small, crowded room. She eyed everything she had and decided that there was S T O R Y . N :) V l R S E • 53 al)Solutcly nothing that was siiitahle for pawning; as she had ahx-ady de- cided yesterday. It was very still. Most everyone was in church and those who weren ' t had prohably gone to the beach. Lucy was home all alone. She wondered, What do people do when they have not a cent, haven ' t a job. a friend, or any way of borrowing money? Once again, only hopelessly this time, she looked through the want ads of the paper. It was of no avail. There simply was not a job she could find. Listlessly she glanced through the ])ai)ers. In blaring headlines there was an account of how a girl committed suicide because of poor health and monev troubles. Lucy dropped the paper. That was the solution to her problem ! Suicide ! Even as she said it she realized that too cost money. Quickly summed up different ways of killing one ' s self. Shooting; but she had no gun : Gas ; it would take too long : slashing throats and wrists ; she had no knife sharp enough : poison ; she did not have any, but she did know where some was. Hurriedly she ran into the kitchen and there in the medicine cab- inet, sure enough, was a tiny bottle of arsenic. Quickly she grabl)ed it and fled to her room, feeling like a thief. The poison wasn ' t hers to be sure, she reasoned with herself, but her landlady could have her few belongings in return for it. Lucy gathered her things together and ])Ut her room in order. Then she locked her door and through the key out of the window to the ground two stories below. She did this because she did not want it to be possible to get out of her room to run for help if her courage gave away. No one could hear from her room, no matter how loud she screatned. as there was no one home in the nearby houses. With shaking hands she pulled the cork out of the bottle. There wasn ' t very much poison, Init enough for her needs. Gingerly she put the bottle to her lips and drank the contents quickly. She pressed her hands over her eyes and thought, Now I ' ve done it. It ' s a shame to die so young but there simply isn ' t a place for me in the world. My wants are few, but I can ' t supply them. She looked at the now empty bottle and softly whimpered, Why. ( )h whv, did I take it? Life is .so surprising although it is cruel. Something would have happened if I had let things work out by themselves. She sat down on the bed. I wonder what I ' m supposed to be doing while I ' m waiting for death to come. She sat still and time passed. She felt a gentle pain go through her body. Then another and another. She couldn ' t bear to sit still any longer so .she jumped u] It was then she remembered the letter she had 54 ' r II E ARTISAN S ' 3 5 received yesterday. She had been in too l)ig a hurry to bother reading it at the time and had stuffed it in her coat pocket for another time only to forget it. She fuml)led in the pocket and pulled it out. Quickly she tore the envelope open and read the letter. She had to reread it several times before her druggy brain realized what a trick fate had played on her. Dear Miss Lane: Several weeks ago you asked me if I had a job for you. At this time I didn ' t. But since then some friends of mine have moved to this city and they need someone to do the housework. They are very fine people and I believe you would find them ideal to work with. I ' m sure you are the very person they want. I hope this letter does not arrive too late.

My protests were over- ruled by her saying the Jones went hiking last Sunday. There had always been a social battle between the Smiths and the Jones. So of course my wife, being a worthy Smith, must uphold her social standing and go hik- ing. It was decided by my wife that we all go to the mountains. The place. Table IMountain. was a twenty mile jaunt from the nearest road. This thought made my spirits fall to a low level. To think of twenty long miles ! My worries had just begun. I retired to bed, feeling somewhat low. I awoke next morning quite early; my never forgetful wife had set the alarm for five thirty as she wanted an early start. I sat straight up in bed, my body piercing the chilly atmosphere, for my room seemed over ventilated. Before I could find my rol)e and slippers, I was a mass of goose pim])les. Muttering a few dainty words, I left the room in search of a warm corner. I found this in the kitchen. But my wife would not let me sit down at the breakfast table with the children until I was prop- erly dressed. My wife directed me to the closet, where she had laid out for me a hiking outfit, . fter many little friendly words with the monkey suit, I was fuUv drajU ' d in it. Oh, if the boys of the club could only see me now! Returning to the breakfast table I took a large drink of coffee, the hot li(iuid scorching the lower and upper jmrt of my mouth. After swal- lowing the coffee my throat felt like an oven warm stove pipe. Thus my day started like a beautiful dream. After breakfast I packed the car without too many mistakes. After all were seated in the car ; I found that it woidd not respcMid to the actions of starting a car. The car seemed a little cold, funny! It was only five thirty in the morning. I prepared the next best thing to do; use the gadget known as the crank, man ' s greatest invention towards the auto- mobile. Finally the motor caught, and then suddenly my arm felt like it had been jerked out of its socket. .After rubbing and soothing the arm. I spoke to the wife saying. Dear, please keep the spark down. It ' s just the principal of the thing. I am next seen hiking along a narrow path; my wife is leading the way. I have enough gadgets and implements stnmg aromid me to make me look like a walking store. The tent that I was carrving got slightly S T ( ) K V A N 1) V E R S ] . 59 hca v at tinit ' s. and hel])e(l to iinl)alance nic. My wife l)rushc(l a hrancli awav with her hand, and on the rehound it slap])ed me in the face. Ah, that felt nice. Not lono- after that, with the clanking;- of pans and other implements, I si)rawled ont on the ground, ohviously having stuhhed my toe. In the midst of the latighing of my children my wife ' s voice came, saymg, Charles, don ' t try to show off in front of the children. Very much irritated 1 resumed this heautiful journey. We ate ahout noon. Just as I was ready to take a hite of my sand- wich, there walking across my sandwich was a little insignificant ant. No- l)()dy else was honored hy having an ant as a guest on his food. This de- creased my appetite and I consoled myself hy saying I wasn ' t hungry. Arriving at my wife ' s destination, I proceeded to put up the tent. Be- ing an aiuatuer tent juggler I had my ups and downs, very few ups. When we retired to hed I noticed some red hlotches on my arm and face, and with further notice T found these nearly all over my body. T asked mv wife what these were, and she said. Don ' t worry, it ' s only l)oison oak. The night I spent in a frenzy — itching and tossing. The next morning I burned my hand while putting wood on the hre. And on the trip home my wife had to say, Isn ' t Nature wonderful? Never marry into social life! FUTILITY By Earl Mittler An insect dies, and no one cries : Whv is it when upon two planks you ' re laid To be returned to earth from which we ' re made So much ado is made for vou? (30 T H E A R T I S A N S ' 3 5 THREE HUNDRED FEET UP Bv Ronald Lock A crowd packed the grandstand, eager and impatient. Suddenly the crowd broke into pandemonium as a man was seen climbing a narrow ladder in the center of the arena. Up and up he went until he appeared like a tiny fly on a thread. A barker climbed up on a small platform, picked up a megaphone, and announced to the audience, Ladies and Gentlemen ! Today we have Al- fred Ladrera, who will do his spectacular leap from a ladder into a flaming circle of oil on the water of a small tank, eighty-five feet below. As the barker stepped down, a shout broke loose, and then suddenly stopped as the man on the ladder stoi)ped his ascent and removed his cloak. Deathlike silence surrounded the audience as all eyes watched the diver, who dropped like a plummet toward the earth. A girl screamed as the body parted the water, shooting it high into the air like a silvery fountain. A loud cheer greeted the diver as his head emerged from the water, and he was helped from the tank. The next day thrill-seekers from near and far jammed the bleachers in front of an oval race track. They were all there to see the great Alfred Ladrera climb from a speeding automobile into an airplane, and then drop 5000 feet in a parachute. In a few minutes a car drove up, Ladrera walked up to it, adjusted his goggles, waved to a crowd, and climbed in the car. The driver sped around the track to gain momentum and on his second time around, as Ladrera was climbing on the top of the car. the airjilane zoomed down. Ladrera caught the axle of the plane and swung himself on to it. As he was climbing on the wing, the chute buckle caught on a wire and held him there. He could not loose himself without releasing the para- chute. He had to hang there until the plane had reached a high enough alti- tude for it to be safe for him to release himself. Suddenly as the audience watched with eager interest, they saw a dark object drop from the plane rmd fall rapidly toward the ground. Just then the great white, silky, para- chute blossomed out. and the daredevil floated safely to earth amid loud cheering. That night, in a small tent on the fair grounds, Ladrera and the manager of the circus, Charles Ashford, were talking. Ashford after ex- amining a pai)er stood up and said, Say, Ladrera, Eve got a great idea that will l)ring you fame, as well as a lot of people to our show. Ladrera sat up and showed interest. What is it? he asked. Ashford continued. You know the towers on the Eastern Building. Well! They ' re 120 feet ai)art and over .300 feet above the ground. If you walked a wire stretched between those towers you would become the greatest daredevil of all times, STORYANDVERSE 61 Ladrera jumped to his feet saying, No. sir! I won ' t do it! No tight rope walking for me. My brother was killed at it when the wire hn ke. I do not see why I should risk my neck just to please a few people. The manager replied hotly. Say listen! You signed up with this circus as a daredevil, and you will do as I say or get out! All right! I ' ll get out! said Ladrera. I never liked this outfit any- way! Here I Take your contract and scram before I forget myself. yelled the manager as Ladrera walked rapidly out of the tent. Two days later Ladrera recieved a letter of introduction to the con- tractor of a gang of men who were building a bridge over a river, from a friend. Ladrera reported the next day and got the job as a riveter. He and siveral other men were working on a central part of a bridge, building one of the four towers of the bridge, which would rise about three hun- dred feet above the water. The only means of connection between the towers was a cable on which a small bucket on pulleys ran to carry different jiarts from tower to tower. On the tower opposite to where Ladrera was working, a der- rick was lowering a steel girder into place and a man was waiting to rivet it. Just as the man began to rivet, a steel block fell from above, knocking the man out and causing him to fall almost out of the tower. His safety belt saved him but left him dangling in mid-air al)OUt three hundred feet above the river. Ladrera saw this. jumi)ed up and made his way quickly across the swaying wire. Upon reaching the other tower he quickly released the man and threw him over his shoulder. With this burden he leaped deftly to the girder swinging about six feet from the tower. He then gave the signal to be lowered to the ground. Upon reaching the ground he was surrounded by fellow workers who had seen the rescue above. The boss then walked up and i atting him on the shoulder said. That was fine work, fellow; you ought to be in a circus. I was in a circus before I worked here. replied Ladrera. The boss again questioned him. How come you left? You had a good job there, didn ' t you? I didn ' t quit, answered Ladrera. They fired me when I wouldn ' t do a tight rojie walking act. But you just did one, said a fellow worker. Ladrera then looked up at the swaxing wire and smiled weakly. 62 THE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 LOST By Ganell Stepanek I waited too long To speak the song That lay in my heart.

S ' J O R Y A N D V E R S E 63 THE EVE OF COMMENCEMENT Three years have passed since I first came to our high school, as a much hewildered, inexperienced, uneducated boy. Three years, and it seems as though it were but yesterday that I walked so proudly onto the campus and became one of the three thousand students of our Alma Mater. I wonder what shall become of me now. Now that I am to go out into that great infinite space of the future and join in with the struggling and striving, pushing and shoving mass of humanity. How shall I ever be able to replace the deep friendships that have been embedded in me during these three short years of school life? We are all coming to the crossroads, where the path leads in a hundred different directions. Some of my friends will go one way and some another. With only a few, I shall be able to journey in the future and keep glowing these deeply set friendships. But one thing is certain. I will never be able to for- get the friendships that I have made here in my high school life. Now that my last three years of schooling are over. I am beginning to think back and am coming to the realization that my teachers, every one of them, have been of a great help and guidance to me. Probably, I didn ' t appreciate their help very much while they were teaching me, but now that I am leaving them T can see that I cannot be too grateful for their help and guidance. Many things that they have taught me will follow and guide me in my future life. They have laid the foundation blocks for me and now it is my job to build upon them. It is going to be very difficult to leave my Alma Mater — to leave the sight of the campus, the buildings, the halls, the fields and the grounds. There may be little left of the buildings that once stood here on our cam- pus, but just the same, every bit of the school spirit is here and it will be this that T shall miss more than any thing else. School spirit — what is it really? Volumes could be written about it. I don ' t know what it really is myself, but I am pretty certain that is has something to do with the empty feeling that T have down inside of me and the choking sensation in my throat every time that I think of graduation. My only regret upon leaving is that I did not do more for my Alma Mater. It seems that in my three years, I could have been of more help than I have, because I realize that the school has done a great deal more for me than I have done for it in return. I only hope that I may soon come back again and visit my former school and Alma Mater, to reacquaint myself with old friends, to shake hands and talk again with the teachers who were my guide for three years, to walk through the halls, pass by the classrooms, and to pass through the gates again, to turn around and say to myself, There lies three of the best years of mv life. 54 THEARTISANS ' 35 SENIORS Bv Jevvei. 1)e Rkmee 111 choosing- the name N ' ikings, we. the seniors, chose a name which we thonght we could l)e iM-oud of; one which would stand for valor, self- confidence, gentleness, reliahility. and greatness. A name that would be worthy of our greatest efforts, to live up to. A name that would command respect. The Vikings of old. stout-hearted men and women, set their goal, and in spite of the hardships, wars in which many perished, hard journeys in which many more died, they finally reached their goal. We too, have set ])attles to fight, but if we are able to hold on as they held on, we can ' t a goal. We too will have many hard journeys to make, we too, must work to come out on the top. These three years at Manual have done much towards shaping our characters. The training given us in gym. has enabled us to develop healthy bodies, and the careful teaching we have received has ripened our minds. Those of us who are lucky enough to be able to continue on through college, will grow even more, both in mind and body, but the rest of us, through the experiences, the things we have learned here, can go immedi- ately after graduating and take up our lives as men and women. Being without an extra four years of education, will not keep us from obtain- ing good jobs, or fulfilling our ambitions. The courses offered at Manual Arts have given us a chance to specialize in some certain subjects that will help us. upon graduating. The personal hygiene, wood shop, electric shop, and the print shop are a few of these vocational subjects. The clubs at Manual Arts and the teachers have done their bit too. In the years to follow, we will often seek the wise counsel of some teacher, whom we admire, and the clubs we have belonged to have helped us to ap- preciate certain hoblnes. though left in the past, we will be able to present our ideas, to the world, and we are confident of our ability to win. to to conc|uer whatever might stand in our way. With the ' iking name always before our eyes, we will strive ever upward, toward greater goals. scniofts 66 THE ARTISAN S ' 3 3 SENIOR A CABINET James Murdoch, President M. A.

The ambition of 500 bright faced young- sters came true as they marched timidly, yet expectantly through the halls and to the auditorium of Manual. It was the fall term of the year 1932. Refreshed from a long summer vacation, our class was ambitious and ready to work with the upper classmen, by whom we were given a hearty welcome and urged to join in the school life. We soon learned the impor- tance of our supi)ort and interest in all school activities and we did our best to uphold all the worthwhile traditions which previous classes had worked to establish. For six months we had one grand time at our beloved Manual when lo and behold came that memorable earthquake of March 10th which proved fatal to many of the Los Angeles schools. Manual was badly dam- aged and we were unable to attend the school, but through ]Miss Bates ' generosity, the 10th grades were invited to attend Audubon Junior High School temporarily. Here we carried on together keeping in touch with the rest of Manual, which was at Foshay Junior High School, by The Daily. When we returned to th New Manual in 1933, it was made our official paper. Time passed rapidly and what with Cixics and English examinations, dances, etc.. we shared the good and the bad together until finally we reached the latter part of the All term during which we planned for our Baby Senior term. We chose X ' ikings for our class name; white and roval blue for oar colors. SENIOR B ' S It seemed hardly any time before we returned to school after the sec- ond summer vacation of our high school career. Now we were lowly B12 ' s, the Commander class refused to recognize us as Seniors until after Senior Day. Our class was very large and we were assigned to 375 for homeroom meetings. The first business of the term was to select efficient class officers. James Murdoch was elected president; Dorothy Schaefer and Tom Kennedy, vice-presidents; Clara Jeanette Hopkins undertook the duties of secretary, and Collins Jones took charge of monetary affairs. . t last the day came when we were to show off our sweaters to the entire student Ixxly. It ' s hard to say how much of a surprise we were though, for our colors had been discovered and printed copies were made of our class song, which, by tiie way was written by Dorothy Lane and 108 T J J E ARTISAN S ' 3 5 Charlonia Axford. Nevertheless, everyone had a grand time in spite of the fact that the Vikings lost 4-1 to the Commanders in the events of the day. After school, a hop was given in the gym. exclusively for the tw o senior classes. This climaxed the day and I dare say everyone went home that evening heavy footed hut light at heart. The next week we had our Senior B picnic at South Park. Small children stood aroud watching us with hig eyes and prohahly quite per- lexed as we frolicked to and fro practically monopolizing everything on the grounds. Just hefore exhaustion was ahout to overcome us, the word eats was heard from afar and a mad dash was made for the picnic grounds. Here we fested on hot dogs and ice-cream, a diet which in all prohahility, no dietician would recommend. However, no one suffered except Betty Woods, who was, if I might say so, mustard slinger on the hot dogs and also on her brand new senior sweater. As everyone knows, life is not just one big play-ground for those who intend to succeed, so once again the Vikings settled down to their studies and worked hard toward scholarship. In the meantime, our home- room was changed to 253 and we had our homeroom meetings every Wednesday to talk over class affairs. December the fourteenth, and we were off to a splendid vacation with Santa Claus. After much feasting, we returned to the campus in 1935 to proceed with breaking our new year ' s resolutions. Our last social function for the term was the Viking Prom, January 18th. Jimmy Murdock and Dorthy Schaefer acted as host and hostess. As the term was gradually drawing to a close, we realized the Com- manders would soon be leaving us. With this in mind, we knew mem- bers from our class would be chosen to fill the student body offices and so we began to look for capable leaders. There were many candidates for offices and those selected by our student body were : Tom Kennedy, presi- dent ; Elizabeth Scott, and James Baker, girls ' and boys ' vice-presidents ; Mary Oreb and George Smith, girls ' and boys ' self-government presidents ; Carol Brittle and Sumner Blaha, girls ' and boys ' judges ; Mildred Shea, secretary ; Ray Johnson, editor ; John DiBetta, manager ; Marion Pratt, girls ' league i)resident ; Pete Scolinos, A. B. S. president ; Cecil Bayless. maior; and Dan Kaufmann. scholarship president. Roland Weatherhead, Artisan editor. SENIOR A ' S It was hard to realize that this was our last six mcMiths at Manual. However, we resolved to make this term our happiest and most profitable. Practically the same Senior Aye Cabinet was re-elected: James Murdoch, SENIORS lO ' J })resident ; Dorothy Schaefer and M. A. Hunt, vice-presidents; Clara [eanette Hopkins, secretary; and Collins Jones, treasurer. The senior picnic was held at South Park, March 14. Betty Woods a ' ain presided over the mustard jar although more successfully than the first time. Much whispering had been going about the new senior sweaters. Just what they were, no one knew ( ?). At last Senior Day arrived and the Vikings waited patiently to see the new senior class proudly burst forth in their bright blue and grey sweaters. Some say secretly of course) they really like the Futurists ' sweaters better than their own. Not that good sweaters make a good class, but good appearance he]i)s. Sincerely though, the Futurists are a good class and will reach their long sought for goal before long. The Vikings set the Senior B liack with a score of 5-0 in the events of the day. Everyone says the senior hop after school was a huge success. More work, tests, and grades for the first ten weeks of school. Another vacation to celebrate Easter. Our Senior Prom was held May 10th, and was the last dance for the senior class as a whole. A world of fun was afforded those who attended and much credit is deserved by those who helped make the dance a great success. For the Senior Reception, a lovely afternoon was planned and I am sure each one enjoyed himself immensely. Now the time to say adieu to Manual has come. Three glorious years spent in gaining knowledge, friends, and preparing ourselves for the various walks of life had come to an end. We were now Alumni of Manual out to face the trials and tribulations of life — undaunted. 110 THEARTISANS ' 35 CLUBS When a student enters Manual Arts he is immediately invited to join a clul). The newcomer, a little overwhelmed hy the great variety of cluhs offered, chooses one which he thinks might interest him. Belonging to an organization gives him a feeling of importance, the new friends he makes tend toward making him feel at home in Manual. By the time he is a jun- ior he helongs to several cluhs, perhaps holds an office in one of them: Through holding these club offices the sophomore and junior learn the problems of leadership, so that by the time they are seniors they are prepared to hold an important office well. Our student body officers are all ardent members of several clubs and owe a great deal of their success to the fact that as BlO ' s they be- came interested in clubs and activities of Manual. In the past couj le of years several new clubs have been added to the already large list. The movie club is the newest, and was immediately filled with members. Upon graduating, those who have belonged to a number of clubs have the advantage over those who have failed to join. They have acquired a better personality by mixing with the other boys and girls, they have lost their inferiority complexion and they know how to make friends and how to hold them. Their social activities at school are bound to have a great deal of in- fluence on their character and the clubs here help them to build up some particular hobby which they may continue through life.

Labor Omnia Vincit, was well exemplified in our first laborious project, that of the second edition of the Latinus Tribunus. the department ' s annual liter- ary supplement to the Daily. Since this year marks the bi-millennium of the birth of Horace, trib- ute has been paid to the great Roman poet in many ways. A program in honor of this writer of Odes and Satires was presented before the club by the Virgil and Cicero classes. In this several oi his best known lyrics were sung or read and a dramatization of his Satire, The Bore, was given. Our work for the year was delightfully climaxed by the second annual banquet held June 6, in the cafeteria. Here the third and fourth year classes forgot the Labor of their motto and dined in Roman fashion on Roman food. Horace was the theme of the ])rogram offered for the bene- fit of the diners who did not forget When in Rome, do as the Romans do. The officers responsible for this success are: First semester: Dan Kaufmann. Consul; Jane Hanks, Praetor; Ger- trude Wolf. Censor; Bob Vaughn, Quaestor; Paul Barnett, Centurio. Second semester: Jane Hanks, Consul; Jack Livingston, Praetor; Virginia Stockwell, Censor; Bill Starrett, Quaestor; Hal Isaacs, Centurio. 120 THE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 HOMEKCONOMI(( Ml; CLUBS 121 HORACE By Dan Kaufmann Who was Horace ? Why do people celelirate the memory of his name two thousand years after his death? What influence has such a man up- on our Hves which causes us to reflect U])on his life and character on his hi-millenium anniversary ? Picture, if you can, a grey-haired man. short of stature, inclined to plumpness, in whose genial smile is mixed a little s hrewdness, a man who will laugh at us or with us, yet who knows full well the deeper things of life. A man who sang of deathless themes, home, friendship, love, and religious faith; a man whose outlook on life, whose kindly sjMrit, whose tolerance, and whose sense of humor have all served to endear him to our present age. He was much like our own congenial and humorous author, Mark Twain, in that he, tcjo. was forced to pay the penalty of his fame ; wherever he went, his friends demanded that he hring his humor with him. If he were on earth today, how he would scout at the solemn fools who, with no understanding of these kindly, genial qualities which made his verses immortal, plane and saw and hammer at his genius like so many Joh-lot carpenters. Horace ' s interpretation of his times was so vivid and yet so ac- curate, that he makes us fully see just how close to Rome we are regard- less of the number of intervening years. Oliver Wendell Holmes, late Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, made this statement aliout the philosophy of the poet. But the clubman, skeptical worldling, with his decencies and indecencies had much the same standards and horizons in Rome as he has in New York. His point of view is constant. Therefore, whether he is dining out in sandals and a purple tunic, or in ])atent leathers and a boiled shirt, Horace is up to date with them. Horace originated many of the sayings which we now consider so smart and ultra-modern. De gustibus non disputandum, There is no accounting for tastes, or as we would say, Every man to his own taste. Or Carpe diem Seize the day, that is, Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. His fondness for the s mp e life, his cheerful philosophy, and his love of all things beautiful are the essence of his universal appeal. 122 THE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 THE PUPPET CLUB Taking its ])!ace among the foremost clubs and organizations of Manual Arts, th? Puppet Clul) has steadily increased its membership, popularity, and prestige with the students despite the fact that it was organized only this semester. The idea of forming such an organization be ' o-an among a group of BIO students who produced in their integra- tion class a puppet show written by J. W. McConnel and Grace Israel, named the Romance of a Toreador. The puppets were made and cos- tumed by the students in the class. The activity of the club consists in holding discussions about puppetry, making ]nippets, writing puppet plays, attending puppet shows, and pro- ducing a puppet play. The Angel Intrudes. by permission of Mr. Floyd Dell, the author, i)resented the i)lay without royalty. The puppets for it were made l)y members in conjunction with the shops. The following stu- dents directed the puppets : Goldie Futuran, Ruth Beeson, Charlotte Moel- ler, and Eleanor Kline. The director of the play was Bernadean Fuller, and Mildred Russo. Rhoda P.rcans, Dorothy Tanner, and Catherine Wagner contributed their efforts. The club is among the first of its kind in the city and the members are very enthusiastic about the work the club is doing. Anyone interested in puppetry is eligible for membership. The officers are: Grace Israel, president ; Eleanor Kline, vice-president ; Mary Houston, secretary-treas- urer ; and Ruth Beeson, publicity chairman. The above officers and Haruko Yoshinnn-a form the executive committee. THE PRESS CLUB The Press Club is composed of the beginning and advanced journal- ism classes. It meets once a week and discusses the whys and wherefores of the Manual Arts Daily. Last semester the entire club was escorted through the Herald and Express Ikiildings, while this semester Mr. Connolly, an exj erienced newspaper man. and former editor of the San Francisco Market Street Railway News, was a guest at several of the meetings and offered in- formative information on the newspaper game. CLUBS 123 THE STAMP CLUB Meeting bi-monthly, the Stamp Club has inaugurated many novel features at its meeting. One of the most interesting of these ideas was the stamp auction, a gathering to which members brought their duplicates and auctioned them off for cash, stamps or what have you. In a canvass of the club, it was discovered that the club president, Clinton Jordan, had the best collection while John Woodbury was a close second with a rare selection from all over the world. Mr. La Tourrette, sponsor of the club, has a collection numbering well over twenty- five thousand stamps, Init even so, he was always in the thick of the stamp ac- tion. Closing a very successful term, with a super stamp sale, club members expressed their satisfaction with the term ' s trading and bartering. SENIOR EORUM A contest, in which the substitute surpassed the original contestants, was exemplified in the Declamation Contest, May 20, sponsored by the Senior Forum. Jimmy Roberts, the winner, held the audience spellbound while he recited Toussiant L ' Overture, the heroic story of a negro who, although surpassing Cromwell, Washington and Napoleon, in statesman- ship and warfare, is practically unmentioned by historians. As Jimmy told the story he moved the audience first to admiration for the man ' s feats, then to svmi)athy for him because of prejudice against his color, then to indignation against those who tried to keep his name obscure and finally to ho])e that some day he will be accepted at his full value. Coming second in this contest was Dorothy Arnaud, giving the oration, unknown, she describes the useless sacrifices of all the un- known soldiers of history and expressed a hope that in the future, war, not soldiers, may be unknown. Bob McClanahan, coming third, missed second place by one point. He gave The Irish Disturliance Bill and his sincerity and earnestness were very convincing. He aroused the audience ' s sympathy to the cause he was pleading and made a very efficient Daniel O ' Connell. The other contestants were: Sydney Troxell, Napoleon the Little, Norman Murray. The Imaginary Invalid, and Sam Borevitz, Demon- strative on Capital Punishment. 124 THEARTISANS ' 3 5 ATHLETICS Bv Jewell DeRemee Athletics are rapidlv becoming the most important part of our edu- cation. When gym was first introduced into the course, it was of httle im- portance. Much more stress was put upon the regular studies. Little by little, however, gym became more popular with the students. New games were introduced and now athletics is a required part of everybody ' s pro- gram. Girls stepped to the front too. No longer are they afraid of a little exercise. They play hockey, liaseball and basketball just as the boys, with- out any qualms. Comfortable, trim gym suits make it possible for them to enter into the games with real enthusiasm. The Girls Athletic Associa- tion at Manual has l)ecome one of the most outstanding clubs of the school. Every girl wants to be a member. Each BIO is urged to ])Ut in an application for membership. It is possible at Manual, in spite of the handicaps of the past two years, for a boy to take golf, regular gym. corrective, while the girls may take G. A. A., regular gym, corrective, rifle team, tap dancing, or natural dancing. At least one period a day of gym is required (jf every boy and girl. Those who are not physically fit for strenuous exercise take corrective gym. In this class the physically im]:)erfect are given special body building exercises which will correct their errors in ])ostures, breathing, and so forth. Football has become the most outstanding and popular game of all. Each high school has its teams. In the fast moving world the average person gets very little exercise l)esides dancing. Instead of walking nowadays, most everyone hops into their car and rushes around the corner to the store. To go across the street, even, some persons consider it necessary to use the car. Without the gym period each day out high school boys and girls would forget the meaning of exercise — they would absolutely let their bodies go to ru in, but after three year of training in Manual, they are less apt to forget how to care for themselves. As the years pass, gym will become an even more important part of our education — and more power to it. ATHLCTICS 126 T H E A R T I S A N S ' 3 5 Sidney F. Foster, head of the Manual Physical Education Depart- ment, was instrumental in turning out winning athletic aggregations. He also coached the tennis team and sponsored the Lettermen and Toiler Clubs. James J. Blewett is recognized as one of the most able prep football coaches in Southern California. Coach Blewett is largely responsible for producing that championship football team of ours. His class B track team also enjoyed a very successful season. Charles Toney is one of the most able, and certainly one of the most popular coaches at Manvtal. Coach Toney ' s work with the varsity track team anrl varsity football line stamp him as a usurper to Dean Cromwell ' s title. Maker of Champions. Herbert E. Lougheed handled the very difficult task of correcting mal-nutrition. fallen arches and spinal curvatures. Fellows in corrective classes a])preciate Coach Lougheed ' s sympathetic aid. Arthur E. Williams was the recipient of much ])raise in developing a city gymnastic team. His class B football and basketball teams always make very good showings as also does his golf team. Under Coach James P. Armstrong, this year ' s varsity basketball scjuad ])laced very high in city competition. His work with the C track squad shows his merit as one of the leading Manual coaches. A T H L E T I C S 127 THE COACHES Sid Foster James Blevvett Charles Tonev Arthur Williams James Armstrong Herbert Lougheed 128 THE ARTISAN S ' 35 CLASS BEE BASKETBALL Resuming hostilities with Southern League rivals, the 1935 issue of Coach Armstrong ' s class Bee squad tangled with Washington and came out the winners hy a 24-18 count. Following this, the season ' s most thrill- ing game was played with Fremont ' s lightweights which the Artisans won 23-21 in an overtime period. Po!y ' s city championship bound Bee squad administered the first of the long series of defeats by smashing M. A. 27-12. In ra])id succession Jefferson won 27-14; Huntington Park trounced the Toilers 26-16; Belmont followed suite 23-15; Hollywood dumped the locals 40-19; and as a crowning achievement Leuzinger came through to win from Manual 36-21. As might be surmised by the season ' s summary, the Manual boys were outclassed in almost all of the latter contests, partly because of the absence of Ca])tain Jimmy Baker, who couldn ' t get out of the Subs class. Again their loss was due partly to the wrong positions being filled by the wrong men. Danny Kaufmann, at guard, was obviously miscast, as he made a flashy forward. The work of Roberts at forward was clearly not up to Kaufmann ' s par but his defensive work was at times outstanding. Baker showed potentialities as a guard but was relegated to second string forward spot. Livingston and Sterling were fighting for the center ])osition, meanwhile Max Thompson i)aired with Roberts to fill the guard spots quite capably CLASS CEE BASKETBALL Under the guidance of George Bartholomew, who acted as student coach, the Manual Arts Class Cee team engaged in a series of five basket- ball games, winning two and losing three. The Cee lads started out in true Toiler fashion by overwhelming the favored Washington midgets to the tune of 21-8; Poly rose and smeared the locals 25-5; Jefferson won from them 21-13; and Huntington Park turned in a surprise win by a score of 24-13 over the Manual squad. It seemed that the Artisans could not stand to lose their final game and as a result Belmont ' s heavily favored Hilltoppers were dumped 24-16. Danny Bruno, curly headed Cee captain, was declared by Bartholo- mew one of the fightingest midgets seen on the Toiler courts in recent years. His record of 17 points for the season gives him a large advantage over White, Shields and Lynn, other star forwards. ( llenn Neely beat out his teammate Bob Ringwood at the pivot posi- tion. Thedford, Koenigshofer, and ( )hlman were a big cog in the Toiler machine and their playing were exceptionally fine for the mo.st part. . T H L E T I C S 129 VARSITY CLASS Ll.AsS C 130 THE ARTISAN S ' 35 MURDOCH LABRIOLA SKALLA SEARS Captain Jimmy Rubherlegs Murdoch. Acknowleged as the best center recently produced by Manual, the hard working varsity captain was able to control the tossup four out of five times. Meestair Murdoch played a steady defensive game and on the offense his work was superb. Submerging his own natural desires to turn in high points, the teamwork of Jimmy proved to be an important factor in turning in wins for his team. Harold Lab ' ' Labriola. Playing his third year of basketball on Arm- strong coached teams, Lab was a strong pillar of the successful basket- ball squad. Harold played a type of game which often is not noticed in the stands but is noticed by opponents on the floor. On an all coaches ' team Labriola received 60 points, the only choice of every coach for the guard spot. I-Iarr Muscle Skalla. Surely no one could watch the cool, fast game of the Toiler guard and believe that it originated in the brain of an unintelligent person. Harry proved his worth against Huntington Park, Belmont, and especially against Jefferson. When Skalla went out of the Jefferson game one very prominent coach was heard to say, Well boys, there goes Manual ' s chances. Harry did play fine, heads up ball. Dale Goon Sears. In spite of his big feet, which helped very much in making this boy the most colorful of recent hoopsters. Dale Sears really played a series of magnificent games which put him very much in the S])orts Spotlight. Dale ' s sensational work at this position of forward marked him as the man to stop in city baskeball circles. Huntington Park failed to do so and as a result the Goon accounted for 19 digits in this one encounter. A T H L E T I C S 131 COELIN GIBBS SCOLINOS WHITE Fred Cocliii. Led l)y the si)arkling play oi diminutive Fred Coelin, flashy varsity forward, the Manual hoop s(|uad went to inspired heights to conquer Poly — . That, of course, amply descrihes the clean, inspiring type of hall which the little giant of the courts played. Coelin. as one of the smallest men on the team, overcame the size handicap and turned out to be a constant threat to any opponents ' margin of safety or point lead. Pliil Cibbs. Though he participated in almost every game through- out the current season Phil was not awarded a letter this year. His work at the forward position, while not up to the high standards set hy the other ace players, was good enough to assure him a place on the next year ' s squad. Peter Satchel SeoHuos. After relinquishing his position at guard during the Poly and Jefferson contest because of his smallness in stature, the fiery little guard made a great comeback in the final game of the sea- son. Pete took the knocks and came back smiling and working harder than ever. The wit and never failing good humor of this stellar guard was sur- passed only by his first-rate floor work and team spirit. Hozvard Tarzan White. Always alert, always ready to work for the good of the team, always there to do a bit more than his share of work, Howard White, varsity manager, deserved plenty of orchids. 132 T H E A R T I S A N S ' 3 5 MANUAL ARTS vs. WASHINGTON December 7 Jimmy Murdoch, mighty Viking and newly elected captain of the Manual Arts varsity basketball squad, led his pow erful Toiler team into Southern League competition with Washington as the first opponent. After a fast and very hard fought game the Men of Manual emerged with the game tucked safely away by a score 26 points to 16. Captain Murdoch found himself cast in the role of a star by rolling up nine points for Manual while Johnston, of the Surveyors played out- standing ball with nine digits to his account. Pete Scolinos, mighty Artisan guard, and his lanky team-mate, Harold Labriola, also played a great game for the Toilers. These two guards kept the poorly organized Washington offense in hot water most of the time. They broke up the key plays of their opponents on countless occasions. This, incidentally, was the first year which the Toilers entered South- ern League competition and through this arrangement the team which takes first ])lace in the Southern League, meets the winners in the North- ern, Western and Marine Leagues. ALVNUAL ARTS vs. FREMONT December 14 In a game which was played on Fremont ' s poorly lighted floor, the slowly improving Manual quintette found itself in the final minutes of play and managed to turn in what seemed to be a certain defeat into victory only by running wild and scoring ten points during the second half of the game. In the meanwhile a tight defense, consisting of Skalla, Scolinos, and Labriola held the Fremontonians to six points. The final score read 19-15 in favor of the visiting Manual squad but for anyone to claim that the Artisans were four points better than the Pathfinders, seems absurd. Perhaps the brightest of the many game highlights was the chris- tening of Dale Sears. Dale had been playing fairly good ball but it seemed that he could not hit the basket on his numerous free foul shots. Finally, in desperation to get a pass the Goon stumbled over his own rather large feet. Following this bounce on the hardwood. Dale rang the bell on four separate foul shots. The brilliant playing of Baby-Face Fred Coelin gave him the right to share team scoring honors with Dale Sears. While the Goon got four of his six points by way of free shots, Fred managed to hit the basket from both sides of the court with both hands to make six points for him- self. The game was characterized by that old saying, it-can-bc-dfme spirit of the Manual boys and seemed proof that the Artisans were more than just another lucky team. ATHLETICS 133 MANUAL ARTS vs. POLYTECHNIC January 8 In spite of the hard playing of both teams, the ManuaHtes showed their superiority by holding the Parrots on fairly even terms till the fourth quarter. Then the men from Manual took off the wraps and dropped several more Inickets to win the game by a 33-17 final count. Baby-Face Fred Coelin not only took high scoring honors, with twelve points, but played such fast, clean ball that he inspired his team- mates to a point where the whole team was working as a unit and was actually clicking plays which had not worked in previous games. Dale Sears played his usual fine game and together, these two xA.rti- san forwards and Jimmy Murdoch, center, played rings around the slow- breaking Poly squad. Harry Skalla prcjved himself a real asset to the team and ]ilayed almost the entire second, with Lab Labriola and Satchel Scolinos alternating at the other guard spot. Mazet and Butler were shining lights of the Mechanic squad, while Sears and Coelin contributed 23 of the 33 Toiler markers. MANUAL ARTS vs. JEFFERSON January 12 The Manual-Jefferson game progressed along the same general order as the Manual-Poly game — only worse. There were 34 personal fouls which kept 750 fans who witnessed the fracas on their feet throughout the game. While Manual held a slight scoring edge at the half the lead teetered back and forth throughout the entire game. It was only through the fine work of Harold Labriola and Harry Skalla that the ManuaHtes were in the game at all. Pete Scolinos, sent into the game during the last half, almost killed Art Lace field with a flying tackle. It seemed that Johnson. Jefferson for- ward, was playing great ball for Manual until the half, when a fight talk by Ching Duhm put back some life into him. Mike Enriquez and Ar t Lacefield, both of Jefferson, were great individual performers, but the teamwork of the Manual team during the final minutes of play in view of the fact that they were five points behind, the way Harry Skalla and Fred Coelin took it without flinching when they were sent off the floor on fouls, the fire and spring which Rubberlegs Murdoch showed by out-jumping the circus center, the dogged and exceptionally fine work of Labriola when the officials kept charging him with fouls which he did not commit, in fact the many details of the game which brought to light the unusual sportsmanship of the Artisans, remain in the memory of every one who witnessed the 34-29 defeat which the Jefferson lads handed the Manualitcs. 134 THE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 MANUAL ARTS vs. HUNTINGTON PARK January 15 A wild scoring spree started by the colorful Dale Sears and followed up by Murdoch. Coelin, and Labriola were the main instruments with which the varsity basketball squad from Manual trounced or rather mas- sacred the Huntington Park team to the tune of 48-18. The effective work of the Toiler secondary defense held the Spartans to a mere eighteen points while the Artisan offense seemed to take a malignant delight in running up an especially large score. Harold Labriola, after playing half of the game at his usual guard position, was switched to forward. Here he turned in three field goals and a foul shot to earn seven points. leanwhile Mighty Murdoch and Babyface Coelin were busy garnering eight points apiece. Buff Balard and Sam Fatherly did what they could to save the prestige of the Park team but they were unable to do anything but keep the score down. It was the work of Sears who was largely responsible for the large score. The Goon rolled up nineteen digits which was not at all bad. Jimmy Murdoch was one of the main bulwarks of the Toiler defense and Pete Scolinos paired with Harry Skalla who helped the Satchel smear the Huntington Park offense. MANUAL ARTS vs. BELMONT January 19 Without the Belmont star forward, John Totsis, the Green and Black were unable to cope with the attack which a powerful Manual squad un- leashed. As a result the Hilltoppers left for home with a total of eleven digits to their credit while the Manualites scored twenty- four of the little markers. This margin was more than sufficient to give the men of Manual a victory in their first play off game with the second place team of the Northern League. The poor showing which the Belmont casaba tossers turned in was largely due to the fact that both Johnny Totsis and Bob Cruiz were home in bed with the flu. Since the Belmont system of offense was built on the idea of his four teammates feeding the ball to Dead Eye Totsis, it is easy to see what a demoralizing effect his absence had on the Hilltoppers. Belmont ' s Henry Castro took team scoring honors for the visitors while Captain Murdoch nabbed all medals for the day with ten digits. Harold Labriola again was switched to the forward position and dropped through the hoop to the score five points. Phil Gibbs came to the fore by playing almost the entire second, third, and fourth stanzas at the forward spot. Wally Budrick also got into the fracas and proved his merit. Coelin and Sears ])layed their usual good game for the Manual team. Even so the 24-14 score shows how much better they really were than the Hilltoppers. ATHLETICS 135 MANUAL ARTS vs. I K )LLV ()()1) January 22 Harold Labriola and Harry Skalla, shining stars of the Toiler var- sity, managed to steal the spotlight from the flashy Artisan forwards when the Manual Arts basketball team met the Hollywood High vSchool bucketeers on the Sheik floor. The two stellar guards weren ' t able, how- ever, to steal the spotlight from Morata, star Hollywood forward. Mike registered 15 digits to take high scoring honors for the day. These fif- teen points plus the additional eighteen points made by his team mates were sufficient to give the Bedouins a 38 to 18 win over the representa- tives from the Artisan institute. Dale Sears, playing his usual fine game thrcnighout the first half and third quarters took team scoring honors from the Manual team with ten digits. Attacked by a sudden spell of inability to hit the hoop Dale could not account for enough points to do much good. Jim Murdoch along with Fred Coelin helped feed the liall through the Hollywocxl primary defense to Dale Sears. Neither amassed an espec- ially large total of points but both won recognition with their team work. Murdoch scored four markers. MANUAL ARTS vs. LEUZINGER Januar) ' 24 Ringing down the final season by crushing Leuzinger, Marine League runners-up, the Manual Arts varsity hoo]) squad walked away with an easy victory over the boys from Lawndale. The score of 33-22 which favored the Manual men by some eleven points gives very little indication of the ease with which the Toilers won the game. For a short time during the first (|uarter the regular first string con- sisting of Sears and Coelin, at forward; Skalla and Labriola. at the guard spots ; and Captain Jimmy Murdoch at center, was kept in the game. This lasted a comparatively short time. The final result was Sears at center, Coelin and Gibbs at forward, Westoby and Budrick or Dimitri at guards. While the colorful captain was hogging the limelight Harold Lab- riola went about his way playing his usual steady, hard game. Lab was declared to be one of the best guards in the hoop history of the school. Lab finished the game and found himself a three year letterman. the first since 1921. Harry Skalla and Pete Scolinos both wrote their jiart in the history which this game made. Both Vikings deserve unlimited credit for forming a i)art of this semester ' s team. 136 THE ARTISAN S ' 35 BIG M The Big- M Society is an organization composed of lettermen who earn a letter or a numeral while at this school. The Big M is one of the pioneer ckihs of this type and it has been recognized as one of the fore- most lettermen societies of the City. Its officers this year included Jimmy Murdoch, jiresident and flashy basketball captain; Steve Kennoy. vice president and track ace; Jim Slatter, treasurer and football and shotput tosser ; Don Doyle, treasurer and football ace ; Sue Armour, secretary and G. A. A. prexy. These officers have been active and the organization, under their guidance has made definite progress toward keeping this club among the foremost organizations at Manual. YELL KINGS At the fir.st assembly of the term, Dick Clatworthy was chosen head yell king for the semester. The assistants who were elected were Jimmy Roberts and Fritz Kennedy : Byron Pedersen received the position of alternate. Coaches throughout the athletic world acknowledge the fact that, generally speaking, no athletic team is better than the support which it receives from the organized student body. It is easily seen what tremen- dous responsibility rests upon the yell leaders. The colorful Manual yell kings were very active throughout the term at assemblies as well as at track meets, gym meets and other athletic events. All four yell kings will be back next term. The domination of prep school athletics by Manual Arts in the last three terms has been due largely to the expert guidance of the Physical Education Dej artment. Manual has every right to be proud of the records which the athletes from this school have made under the super- vision of the Toiler mentors. Truly, these coaches not only turn out athletes — thev also turn out men. TOILER CLUB Never before in the history of the Toiler club has this organization been .so active socially and in its service to Manual. It is the members of the Toiler Club who handle the equipment and who are in charge of managing of all athletic squads. The president, Art Maclntyre, and his cabinet composed of Mar- vin Katzman, vice president; Bud Oates, secretary; Jim Christie, treas- lU ' er ; and Bob Kemp, sergeant-at-arms, all worked hard to make this terms a big success in every way. ATHLETIC S 137 r I vn,i, iJ.AiiKi; 138 THE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 GIRLS ' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The aim of the G. A. A. at Manual Arts has always heen to promote ]ihysical and mental efficiency, good sportsmanshi]) and athletic and social activity. The officers for the term were: president, Sue Armour; vice-presi- dent. Elsie Mae Stevens ; recording secretary, Margy Rohey ; correspond- ing secretary, La Nelle Cain ; and treasurer, Esther Barger. Rosemary Fleming was the head of baskethall. At the beginning of the term the G.A.A. began its activities by plaving basketball. Class teams were chosen for the i)layoff games and then baseball was begun. On April 3rd. a ] kIother and Fathers Night was held with all the girls performing in formal drill work. The biggest event, to conclude the term, was our annual G.A.A. Banquet which was held on the night of May 28th. Many of the girls ' mothers attended this aiTair. A T 1 1 L E T I C S 139 TENNIS TEAM Ending a series of mediocre tennis teams, this year ' s squad swept aside all competition to win the Southern League Championship. In the first match, the Toilers traveled to Har ard playground where they de- feated the Washington Cjenerals 15 to and won 4 out of 6 matches. ? Ic- Daniels. Martin, and Waters playing singles, and Bartelt and Miller at douhles scored the fifteen points. The second match was played at Exposition Park, the locals ' home courts, with Fremont as the o])position. McDaniel. Waters, and Shogo Xishida in singles and P)artelt and Miller, second douhles team, gave Manual a hard-earned 14 to 11 decision. Smashing Jefferson 25 to at the Democrats courts sent the Man- ual squad into the lead in the Southern League with three straight vic- tories and no defeats. Huntington Park was heaten hy a 14 to 11 score at Exposition Park. This match ended the regular season and gave the Artisans an undis- ])Uted championshi]). The Manual netmen drew a bye in the first round of the play-off for the Southern California championship. Quarter finals found Manual Arts opposing Phineas l anning at Exposition Park. Every match was taken by the locals as they advanced into the semi-finals by a score of 25 to 0 On the slow Dudley Cup courts at Lincoln Park in Santa Monica, a fighting Toiler team was eliminated l)y the classy Santa Monica Sea- hawks, who took five of the six matches to make the result 18 to 7. Three of the four singles i)layers — Jim McDaniels, Nobu Nishida, and Bob Waters — are graduating leaving only Richie Martin. Art Miller and Lyman La Tourrette. doubles players, will not be back. Jack Carj en- ter and Kenneth Bartelt have another year. i4C THE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 GYM TEAM Another City Championship ! This was the envial)le record which Manual ' s aggregation of stellar gymnasts managed to make in spite of the hitter opposition registered. First, competing against Ploy in the first Southern League meet, they came out the victors hy a 85 V2 to 63 V score. Washington was the next victim of the Artisan exercise men and the unfortunate Generals left Foster gym on the short end of the 87 2 to 61 1 score. Fremont was soundly heaten in the closing dual meet, 120 to 24. Entering the Southern title contest, the Williams hoys almost met their Waterloo when Washington threatened to score an upset. How- ever, M. A. scored 59 digits and emerged victors over Washington hy a slight margin of some twelve points. Poly followed with only 36 markers. In the Northern and Southern league semi-finals the Toilers had little trouhle in coming out ahead of the field. Poly heat out Washington to place second with 35 points. Manual ' s 37 points were garnered as a re- sult of lots of hard work. The City Finals were held at lanual and all that can he said ahout the meet is that when Manual won that title, it won a mythical Southern Cali f ornia Championship. Memhers of the team who always finished well up in the money included Murray and Lee. club swinging; O ' Connor. Lee, and Owen, side horse ; Corwin, Short, and Neuman. free exercise ; MacRae, Koe- nigshofer, Roberts, and Clatworthy, horizontal bar; Trens and Ward, tumbling; Roberts. Corwin. and Clatworthy, parallel bars; Roberts and O ' Connor, lon;. horse; Williams and Benton. ro])e climb; Short and W ' W- lianis. rings. Cai)tain ( ilenn Short. Harry Williams. Tonim - Benton. Irving Xeu- man, jimmy Roberts, and Dick Clatworthy were among those who helped put Manual far ahead of the ' estern and Northern league rivals. A T H L E T I C S 141 ' V ' fif ' ROBERTS SHORT CLATWORTHY KOENIGSHOFER BILSON Caplain (ilciiii Short is one of those rare individuals who earn the distinction of l)ecoming a Manual three year letternian. His leadership led the team to a Southern League, City and dual season championshii). He nahhed a second on the rings and a fourth in the free exercise in the very inii)ortant City Finals. ( ' liilsoii mastered the very intricate art of swinging the clul)s. Another Viking, Ray will he conspicuous hy his ahsence in the future. He develo])ed himself from a medicore to a very fine entry. Daz ' c Kociiiyslwfer was a very competent performer on the horizontal bar. His fifth place in the City Finals was the big event of his career. This is his second year on the team and his work in Southern League finals was outstanding. Jiniiiiv Roberts was the most outstanding all-around star on the Toiler team. He accomplished the imi)ossible when he took three first places in the City meet. His marvelous feats on the parallels, his great work on the long horse and other stellar performances gave him the three first spots. A great competitor. Jim returns next year. Another reason for Manual ' s great team is found in Dick Clat- worthy. Dick went far in all of the dual meets and worked himself into a second in the parallels and third in the City all-around. An outstanding athlete, Dick returns next year. 142 THE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 BENTON WILLIAMS O ' CONNOR Tom in V Benton was proliably the most improved performer on this year ' s gym team. Starting out slowly. Tommy worked hard and came within three-tenths of a second of a world record in the rope climb. He tt)ok the City in 6.2, the best time of the year for Southern California. Harry JVillionis, an eleventh grader and already a two year letterman, doul)le(l in two events, the rope climb and the rings. He is one of the most consistent point getters on the Toiler team and has climbed the rope in 6.4 several times. Besides taking second in the City rope climb event, Harry placed fourth on the rings. Bruce MacRac made a record as one of the most capable and daring performers on Coach Williams ' gym club. His work in the City where he tied for third with Smith of Poly shows how he improved. Smith had beaten him several times before, but Bruce ' s hard work evened the scales in this meet. Julio Trcns copped a high place in the series of League dual meets His outstanding work made him a veritable pillar of strength for Manual, and he. through his fine work, makes his graduation a l)low to the team. Rcnii O ' Conncr found liimself as the prime long and side horse man in early season meets. He was unfortunate enough to fall in the tryouts for the Southern League entries and this eliminated him for the rest of the season. He will return next year. A T H L E T I C S 143 NEUMAN CORWIN OWEN LIPOW George Lcc was one of the several boys who doubled U]) on more than one event. He worked on the side horse and club swing and became very successful in both. He failed to place in the City although his work was very fine. Irvhuj Ncuinaii ' s performance in the City Finals gave liim a surprise first place. Snake-Spine Neuman. as he became known thru his fan- tastic work in the contortions event, is graduating next spring. Bill Coriciii was one of the most diligent workers on this year ' s championship team. Corwin nabbed a medal in the City in the free exercise event but failed to place in his other specialty, the rings. Corwin has an- other year of competition. Bob Ozvcn was another leading performer. His work on the side horse was the reason for his being awarded a gym team letter. His success on the Manual team is ended as he will not be entered next year. Joe Lipoid ' , manager of the team, was a great help to Coach Williams this term. He was always on the job and deserves a vote of thanks. 144 THE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 GOLF TEAM Competing under the tutelage of Coach Pee Wee WilHams, in the newly formed Southern League, Manual ' s strong varsity golf team split championship honors with the Washington High team to draw a tie for the league title. In the six-match season of the four-team league, which offered two meetings between each of the schools, the Toiler forces made a definite bid for the title in the first round. Huntington Park and Poly fell in the first matches. Then in the third encounter, the first with Washington, the Surveyor team went down by a 3 4 to 1 4 score. Snyder of Manual, and Kenkel, first ranking man of the visitors, battled to a halved match as Swoboda, Marsh, and Penso ac- counted for Artisan wins. Poly was again easily defeated but in the return match with Huntington Park, disaster overtook the Toiler team, off form and minus the service of Don Marsh, so that the Spartans registered a svirprise upset. This loss put the outcome of the league race on the final match with Washington. In the feature contest of this meet, Snyder and Kenkel again drew a tie match while Swoboda and Marsh took wins to build up a 2 4 to 2 score, a tied match and a tie for the championship, although the first win over Washington gives somewhat of a moral victory. Captain Bob Snyder stamped himself an outstanding player as he led the team with his consistent par matching golf, his best mark being a sub-])ar 70 over the Sunset Field course. At the second and third posi- tions Dick Swoboda and Don Marsh continually accounted for points, with steady golf that recorded wins in every match. Ralph Penso held down the fourth position while the fifth spot was ]ilayed alternately by Jack Kelly, Robert Meller. and Harold Alpert. A T U LKT ] C S 145 CLASS B TKACK Opening- the season against Fremont, the Bees got off to a fine start hy defeating the Pathfinders 78 to 17. Harrington Weaver starred in this meet, with a first in the 100 and l)road jump. Jefferson High ])roved to he the nemesis of the Artisans, winning l)y a meager three jjoints from the local lads. Jimmy Roherts with a first in pole vault showed lots of class. Earl Elsey won the weight slinging event at 43 ft. 3 1-2 in. Steve McDonald was another winner with a first in the lows. In an amazing show of improvement, the Artisans completely swamped the Washington lighties hy running up a fraction over 66 ]xjints. Weaver was the high point man with 14 points, as Lal ' jnd ran a nice hurdle race to cop the highs. The Huntington Park meet saw a scho(jl record set in the 100 and the pole vault. Weaver ran the century in 10.2 seconds to clii) 1-10 of a second off the previous record. Jimmy Roherts hoisted himself over 11 ft. 10 1-2 in. to heat the old record in the pole vault hy 4 inches. Poly was met in the final meet and suhdued 67 to 27. Farley won the 220 in 22.7 and was a main factor in the victory in the relay. Jimmy Roherts. Manual ' s only entry in the Southern Cal. meet, tied for fifth to score Manual ' s lone 1-4 of a ])oint. CLASS C 14 ACK Boasting such outstanding performers as Lee (janajian, Davy Klein, (ieorge Henderson, George Tajiri, Art Mitani, Nick Condos, Larry Lawson, Shigeru Nakahara. Makati H(jri. Tom Maruyama, and Lloyd Summerhays. this year ' s class C track and field artists came through a very difficult schedule unscathed exce])t for the defeat which they suf- fered at the hands of Jefferson ' s Southern California Chami)s. Opening the season hy trouncing l everly 62 1-3 to 14 2-3 and following hy smashing Garfield 53 1-2 to 23 1-2, the Toilers showed their strength in these two practice meets. The ha])py idea that the Toilers could heat Jeff was sadly forgotten as the Democrat C team won hy a three ])oint margin — the score reading- Manual — 37; Jefferson — 40. The locals came hack strong to take Wash- ington for a one way ride. The Toilers won this meet 40-30. Huntington Park accounted for 35 1-2 ])oints while the Artisans made 41 1-2 to win again. In the final meet of the season Poly was downed 42-35 hy a strtjug Manual team. The Artisan C squad is perhaps one of the strongest ever produced hy Coach Armstrong in his long career at Manual and is acclaimed hy students as a real Manual Arts representative. 146 THE ARTISAN S ' 35 :.

Manual ' s powerful track and field entries walked off with the first Southern League meet held at Man- ual Arts. The Toilers had a 22 point lead until Manual won the relay by twenty yards, giving the Manualites the final advantage in the scoring with a total of 65y2 to 38 4 points. Kent Root showed his heels to the pack he loafed through to an easy 2:04.8 win over Nisbet of Fremont. Hart placed third in this event. The other distance grind, the mile found Brown present. Although the Pathfinders were in a fog most of the meet, Dennis Francis and Lyle Smith sprinted the high hurdles race in the fine time of 16.3 seconds to tie for first place. Manual ' s Coelin placed third. Francis heat out McPherson and Kennoy in the 120 low hurdles. McDaniels won the hundred yard sprint in 10.3. very fast early season time, won the 220 in 22.9 as well as going 5ft. lOin. to cop the high jump. The 440 was run in 53.3 seconds by Ungerland of Manual. Al Ander- son, tenth grade flash, came from behind to tie for second. The field events were dominated by Manual but were close in the broad jump and jwle vault. Slatter and Shaw took first and third in the shot put resi)ectively. The upset of the meet found Smith of Fremont beating out Plumley with a height of 12 ft. 6 in. in the pole vault. Ferrante of Fremont won the broad jump with a leap of 21 ft. 5 in. 148 THE ARTISAN S ' 35 McDANIEL MARTIN COVINGTON NAVE MANUAL vs. JEFFERSON.

Apparently the jinx was working overtime at the pole vault pit where Chuck Plumley ' s bamhoo broke, leaving him on top of the bar lift. 3in. from the ground. As he liit the ground Chuck ripped his arm. Martin won the event, however, at lift. 9in. Jim Skitter won the shot i ut with a heave of 46ft. 7in. La Russo placed third behind Dorsey of Jefferson. Although Ungerland was unable to enter the 440 Anderson took care of that event for the Toilers, copping first. Root finished close to Pipkin, Democrat two lap star, but Kenny had no final sprint or the race might have ended differently. Another hard luck race was taken by Reid, of Jefferson, who over- took Graham, Albright, and Brown in the mile. The Toilers had led the entire race when the fast stepping little negro came from behind to win. The sprint races are history. The books show Allen and Jones both placed ahead of Jimmy McDaniels in the 100 and 220 events. The time of 9.9 and 22.3 is very good. Lacefield took the 120 high stick race. He soared 6ft. lin. in the high jum]) for a second; and won the broad jump at 23ft. 4in. McDaniel placed third in l)oth sprints and registered a leap of 6 feet 4 inches to take the high jump. Nave, Dey and McPherson all cleared 6tt. in llu- high juiu]). Codin and Dey finished two-three in the high bar- rier race and Kennov took third in low stick race. ATHLETICS 149 BROWN McPHERSON ANDERSON CUSHNIE MANUAL vs. WASHINGTON SLATTER Led by Jimmy McDaniel, who turned in wins in three events, Manual smashed the highly touted Washington track squad by a score of 61 2-3 to 42 1-3 on Wilson Field. The meet was marked by the fastest hundred run by the Manual ace. The time was 10.1 seconds. Jimmy also sprinted the 220 in 22.6 and soared 6 feet to win the high jump. Bob Cushnie made his de- l)ut in the current season when he ran a close second to his teatn mate in the furlong but was discjualified. Jim Slatter, Frank Shaw and Hans Wendell made a clean sweep of the shot i)Ut when they shut out all Washington weight men. King McPherson showed unexpected strength in this meet when he copped the 120 low hurdle race and tied for third with Doyle Nave in the high juni]). Nave also lea])ed 20ft. 7in. to ])lace l)ehind Kennoy in the broad- jump. The pole vault turned out to be the most thrilling duel of the day, Winburn of Washington finally beating out Richie Martin. Winburn topped the Toiler vaulters ' mark of 12ft. 6in. by three inches. LeBarts and Faulkner of the visiting Surveyors ' team managed to eke out close wins over Root and Albright in the 880 and the mile. Ex- cept for this the meet was all Manual as the 61 2-3 to 42 1-3 score would indicate. 150 T J I E ARTISAN S ' 3 5 GRAHAM DEY SLATTER MANUAL vs HUNTINGTON PARK A [ay 10 Allowing their rivals from Huntington Park only three first places. Manual ' s classy varsity rolled up a large 74y2 to 29 final score to walk away with the final Southern League track meet before the big Southern California battle. The shining light of the meet was found in the efforts of the two star Manual pole vaulters Richie Martin and Chuck Plumley. These two boys after threatening the school record throughout the term finally floated over the cross bar some 12 ft. 7 1-8 in. above terra firma to break- Bud McBride ' s former Manual mark. Louie LaRusso showed improved form and as a result he copped the weight event with a toss of 46 ft. 3 in. Excellent performances by his team mate, Jim Slatter and by Iron Man Reithe, Huntington heaver, forced Louie to show his hitherto hidden ability as a shot putter. The other field events were taken care of by the Toilers in their usual fine style. Steve Kennoy registered an exceptionally fine leap of 22 ft. 10 in. to take first in the broad jump. Jimmy McDaniels, jumping for first place, won the high jump with a lea]) of 6 ft. .S-8 in. Kennoy ' s broad juni]) effcjrt was one of the best at Manual this year but the tall loose jointed Toiler was not content with only a first in one event. He went out and loafed through to an easy victory in the 220 low hurdles. The time, 25.9 proved to be another outstanding achievement of the (lav. A T H L E ' r I C S 151 TONEY KATZMAN The other hurdle race, the high sticks, was taken hy Tom Coving- ton and Fred Coelin who tied for first place. Howard Dey, coming up strong, forced the winner to take the race in 16.3 seconds. Ungerland and Anderson met defeat at the hands of Walker Morgan, star Spartan who ran the 440 in the time of 52.3 seconds. The 880 found Rohert Hart winning from Scott Alhright in the home stretch. Brown and Graham tied for first in the mile with Colvin coming up to take third and account for a clean swee]) for the Artisans. Morgan and Stevenson dominated the sprints for Huntington Park. MANUAL ARTS vs POLYTECHNIC May 24 Winning their final Southern League track meet by a score of 75 to 29. the strong Manual team proved their superiority throughout the meet, taking 32 out of a possible 36 points in four field events. Perhaps the outstanding feat of the meet was turned in by Bob Cushnie who won both dashes after a long forced vacation. Bob displayed power and unusual speed as he came home a scant foot ahead of Jimmy McDaniel in the hundred. The times were 10.2 and 23 seconds flat. Kent Root, 880 ace, traded positions with Scott Albright, miler. and proceeded to cai:)ture the mile in 4:47, the best Manual time of the year. Wally Graham finished third in the mile event. Albright was less fortunate and took a third in the 880. Robert Hart ' s driving finish netted him a sec- ond ])lace as he finished behind Borges. Poly runner, who took the event in the time of 2:07.7. 152 T H E A R T T S A N S ' 3 5 In the 440, Long Tom Bradley was forced to extend himself to take the event from Manual ' s Dick Ungerland. The time of 50.4 was fast, and Dick finished a game second while Sidney added another point to the Parrot total by copping third. Anderson did not run because of illness. Don McLaughlin and Howard Dey finished in that order in the 120 high hurdle race. Richie Martin, with his new Bill Graber style of vaulting, repeated his act of vaulting 12ft 6in. to take the first in the pole vault. Martin easily clearing the height, while Truck Horse Plumley barely went over die four yard mark. Irwin and Chlentzos, tied for third at lift. 6in. Doyle Nave jumped 1-2 in. further than did Steve Kennoy and his 1-2 inch mark gave him a victory in the broad juni]). Gilbert of Poly was within 3 1-2 inches of the winner but could not better either Nave ' s or Kennoy ' s jump. The distance of 21ft. 10 l-2in. was only a mediocre. Jumping to win. jimmy McDaniel left Bradley and Nave tied for sec- ond at six feet while the crack Artisan sky scraper leaped 6ft. lin. to win without working up even a light sweat. SOUTHERN CAL. MEET In the annual Southern Cal. meet Manual tied for seventh with eight points as Jimmy McDaniels brought the Alma Mater its only individual championship by leaping 6ft. 3in. to annex the high jump. Charles Plumley soared over 12ft. 9in. to set a new school record and get a tie for second in the pole vault. Jefferson High School took the title with a scattering of points in a few events. The favored Muir Teck Terriers fell before the scoring splurge of the Democrats. Manual did exceptionally well in this meet and according to dopesters the Toilers should score score about seventeen points in the city meet. Ken- noy, Nave, McDaniels, Plumley, Martin, Cushnie, Ungerland, and Root should leave Manual among the tops in the city and Southern League EinalvS. CITY RELAYS, MARCH 30 Replacing Manual Arts as the City Relay title holders, Jeff ' s great track and field artists ran up a total of 24 to walk away with the Divi- sion One honors. The Democrats placed ahead of L.A., Hollywood. Fair- fax, Poly and the others. The class Cee man 440 relay found Manual in third place, the only points garnered being in the running events. Martin and Plumley went lift. 9in. to tie with four other entries for second place, to score the other Artisan points. Manual ' s total of three points is hardly up to Toiler par but the lads from Vermont Avenue were in no position to do much about the fast teams which they were forced to compete against. ATHLETICS 153 SNAPSHOTS OF OUR STARS 154 THE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 R.O. T. C. Rv Captain William Goss The R. O. T. C. is one of Manual ' s largest organizations, consisting of 243 enlisted men and 22 commissioned of cers, all the finest of Man- ual Arts. The purpose of the R. T). T. C. is to awaken in the student an appreciation of the ohligations of citizenship, to prepare him to discharge his duties as a citizen and to qualify him as a military leader. However, it is not connected with the regular army, and no boy is compelled to join. At Manual Arts there are three companies and a hand of forty men. There is a rifle range for the men to shoot on, an Officer ' s Drill Squad, a Private ' s Drill Squad, and a Non-Commissioned Officer ' s Drill Squad. The R. O. T. C. does much for the hoys. It helps them to overcome shyness and brings out the utmost in each one, training him for leader- ship after he graduates. After graduating there is the Omega Tau Lambda Military Fra- ternity, which the men may join. Honor School, however, is the day looked forward to. At this time each school demonstrates its tactical and close order drill proficiency, in an effort to win this honor. This semester we were fortunate in having with us, on Honor School day, several important and celebrated people : — Colonel Albert B. Dockery, Calvery, U. S. Army, graduate of West Point. Jimmie Doo- little, Jackie Coogan, and Toby Wing. Once a term the Army Ball is held, and it is considered one of the notable aflfairs of the semester. The ball this term was held in a garden set- ting under the soft lights of Japanese lanterns, with hostess Leah Gustave- son, and host Major Cecil Bayless. The alluring music was supplied by Hat Hatfield. miLiTn-RV 156 THE ARTISAN S ' 35 Cfxil Bayless, Cadet Major W. R. Wii.sox, Major, U. S. A. C. E. Littler, Sergeant, U. S. A.

A Company, under the leadership of Captain WilHam Goss had the task of furthering the practical and theoretical knowledge of the older men. Such subjects as combat principles, tent pitching, etc. were taken up. The second in command was 1st Lieutenant Arthur Windsor. The Platoon Leaders were 2nd Lieutenants Brooks and Ray. B Company, under command of Captain Mark Hagney. was com- posed ])artly of old men and partly of new men. Such subjects as Rifle Marksmanship and Butts Manual were covered. Second in command was 1st Lieutenant Ellis. Platoon Leaders were 2nd Lieutenants Snow and Lake. C Company, under Captain James Kaylor was comjwsed entirely of new men. Phases of elementary drill and calisthenics were mastered by the men. The second in command was 1st Lieutenant Harold Fothergill. Platoon Leaders were 2nd Lieutenants Cooper and Hebard. R. O. T. C. BAND One of the most necessary organizations of the school is that group of musicians who belong to the R. C). T. C. unit, and who make parades and drills so lively and colorful. This term the band has been well drilled and has carried out its duties with efficiency. One of the outstanding activities of the term was their participation in the Memorial Day parade. The band boys also helped on the program for Public Schools Night at Audubon Junior High School. Besides the drilling, marching, and playing in the customary for- mations of a musical unit, the band served as a rifle company. As Company D, it handled the same close order, extended order, rifle exercise, and theo- retical program as the other companies of the battalion. Certain days of the week were used as music practice periods. Under the capable leadership of Captain Robert Benefield and his subordinate officer, Wayne Hatfield, the band performed notably through- out the term. Credit is also given to the non-commissioned officers of the organization. They worked hard and incessantly to make a better band. Mr. William T. Killgrove is musical director.

The team drilled at many notable places, as the Shrine Auditorium. Coliseum, Patriotic Hall. University Lodge, Aud- ubon Junior High School, the Legion of Valor, the Purple Heart Associ- ation, and of Honor School Inspection for P. T. A. The present team has drilled together for the past two years, and its success can be attributed to the high degress of perfection it has at- tained through unending practice. The members of the team include Captain William Goss, James Kaylor, Halsey Everest, and 2nd Lieutenants Robert Snow, Elwin Brook, and Carroll Cooper. M I LITA R Y 161 THE HKARST RIFLE TEAM The men in the Hearst Rifle 1 ' rophy Squad are picked from the whole rifle team, which is composed of the hest shots in the tmit. They have to he steady, consistent shooters hecanse it is their most important contest in the school term. Each man has four ])()sitions to shoot: Prone, sitting, kneeling, and standing. There are live shots p ' aced in each target hut the man firing has to he so careful that sometimes, just t(j shoot one target, it takes a whole period. The jjosition has to he just correct or the whole target may he poor. The trigger scjueeze has to he just right or the gun will he out of alignment and the shots will he poor. There is much training necessary to he placed on this team. There are no new hoys allowed on it. A person must have one year on the rifle team to he allowed to shoot on the Hearst Team. The memhers of the team this year were Captain Fred Fess, who was the captain of the team. Lieutenant Elwin Brook, Captain Mark Hageny, Lieutenant Alhert hy.lis, and Captain Halsey Everest. Each one of these men had had exi)erience on the rifle team in ])revious terms. 152 TH E ART I S A N S ' 35 SCHOOL LIFE A roar ! Thundering crashes ! Quiet. Dawn. Daylight trickling like wine through the trees to show a hattered and broken Manual. Days pass. Busy workmen hammering, pounding, pulling down the old walls. Trucks zooming in and out, taking away the ashes of Manual. Unhappy students stand by helplessly watching the funeral of their old friend and silent comrade. Teachers dream of the days of the old school — remember happy times. Darkness falls and Manual is gone. P)lack, staring holes remain. Students and teachers turn away. Then the sun shines again. Smiles light up the faces of the Manual- ites. Dumbly they watch a new Manual grow. A school moved in on wheels. Hours pass and twenty-five little gray bungalows stand in lines like soldiers on review. Sounds of hammering and pounding fill the air as workmen hastily lay out boardwalks along the newly named streets. Gardens, more beautiful than ever, surround the bungalows. Manual ' s new city is finished at last. Two years pass. Architects survey the land. Blue prints are made. Teachers and students chatter excitedly. Groundbreaking — steamshovels roar and still another Manual Arts is growing. Our little gray city will disappear just as old Manual disappeared ; but memories will linger on. 35 1 SCHOOL Life 104 T H E A R T I S A N S ' 3 5 Monda}-, February Amid much rushing for registration the new term has opened.

Salvador Dali is the leader of this strange new art. He says that he draws and paints like an auto- maton who transmits emotions from the subconcious. He admits that he does not always understand his creations, which however must have a profound and scientific significance. The difference between a madman and a super-realist, is that a mad- man confuses two worlds; illusion and reality, while the super-realist knows the difference. This new art has become a mania. Many artists have become inter- ested in it. tried it. Some fail to get the idea, others are very clever. Everything that passes through the head, dreams and so forth, is material for the super-realist. On a recent visit to New York, Dali drew several impressions of the night life in the great city, of the skyscrapers of Wall Street, and of the people. One is a picture of a cocktail party which the artist attended, in which he shows an automobile coming out of a glass cabinet in which there are men and women throwing fish to tame seals. Even the furniture is alive in his picture. The artist ' s ideas of the skyscrapers are very unusual. He pictures them becoming soft, sticky and flexible. He believes that the buildings will be not only places to live in but places which will vibrate and dream. ' ery few people really understand this new art, but they are wel- coming it, and are interested in its development. Even the art galleries are l)eginning to accept it — even while they wonder at it. At the present time super-realistic art holds the same position in art that Gertrude Stein ' s poetry holds in writing, but whether or not it will live or will die out as other fads have done is a question that cannot be answered now. DAnmA mu$ic 176 THE ARTISAN S ' 35 SENIOR PLAYERS ' COMPANY The Players ' Company this term produced two plays of note, Gadgets and Thursday Evening. Well received hy appreciative audiences, these plays were reminiscent of pre-quake productions. Presided over hy Bill O ' Keefe, the discussions at meetings this term helped to acquaint the new memhers with the production, direction, and acting of plays. The re-estahlisliment of the Junior Comi any was the most impor- tant feat accomplished this term. This junior organization was inaugurated to furnish talent for the senior group, and in that capacity it has served its purpose. As usual, the Company closed the term ' with its traditional semi- annual installation l)anquet. Under the direction of Paul Griem the affair was completely successful, as a majority of the Company memhers at- tended, as well as memliers of the Senior Aye play cast. The memhers of the Senior Players Company Cabinet for S ' 35 are : president. Bill O ' Keefe ; vice-president. Paul Griem ; secretary, Josephine O ' Mara; pul)licity managers, Don Sweeney and Ted Naly ; and property manager, Willie Johnson. 1) R A M A A N n V S 1 (■ 177 THE SENIOR AYE CLASS OF S ' 35 Presents Growing Pains A Comedy of Adolescence By Aurania Rouverol Directed by E.

A sympathetic story, clever direction, and fine acting, combined to make the Viking presentation of Growing Pains one of the school year ' s outstanding events. The play held the stage for fourteen weeks on its original run in New York, and due to its popularity, was instantly chosen by a number of high schools as a senior play. As the curtain rises, George is discovered pleading for a car, which his father finally allows him to have. Terry, his sister, is just becoming aware of the limitations of her sex, as she can no longer play with the boys. A very mixed up love affair which ends happily for Terry but disastrously for George winds up the plot, but as the curtain falls, everything is l)right and promising. Two api reciating audiences roared with mirth during the two presen- tations, and as the curtain dropped, closing another chapter in Manual History, the audience gave the cast a tremendous ovation. 178 T H E A R T I S A N S ' 3 5 PLAYS PRESENTED BY PLAYERS ' COMPANY ••THURSDAY EVENING A one-act tragi-comedy. Directed by Bill O ' Keefe Cast (in order of appearance) Gordon Bill O ' Keefe Laura Betty Schwankovsky Mrs. Sheffield Florence Blurock Mrs. Johns Mary Rahe Setting : the kitchen of the Jolins ' home. A tragi-comedy is probably tbe hardest drama to i:)rodiice successfully but with this able cast of characters, and under expert direction, the ) a.y was adjudged an instantaneous success by an appreciative audience. The play itself deals with trials and squabbles of the Johns ' family. Gordon Johns is thrifty to a point approaching stinginess, while his wife has no regard for the value of food. This situation causes many highly amusing complications, but eventually, the two mothers-in-law fix up everything. The interpretation of character and plot was perfect. A bit of melodrama intermingled with a little comedy, Thursday Evening was a highly amusing and unusual production for the playgoers of Manual. GADGETS A play in one act. Directed by Howard Culver Cast (in order of appearance) Clerk Philip Hurst Assistant Ruth Beeson Crossword Puzzler Bill Baugh Coquette Dorothy Tanner Mr. Uffley Howard Culver Politician Jack Hicks Mrs. Uffley Elinor Kline Typist Pearl Berger Setting : A subway station As the curtain rises, two docile clerks are taking inventory. Mr. Uff- ley, the hard-hearted I)ig business man, enters his shop with the news that he has but a month to live. He gives his shop to the clerk, and then is re- united with Mrs. Uffley. But alas, the typist from the doctor ' s office comes on the scene and announces that she made a mistake in typing Mr. Uffley ' s record, and he is in reality perfectly healthy. So, spoiling what promised to be a hap]:)y ending, he takes back his shop, spurns his wife, and the curtain falls as he is again giving orders to his clerk. Working under tremendous handicaps. Howard Culver produced a fine play, well worth the time and labor expended. D R A M A A N D M U S I C 179 IgO THEARTISANS ' 35 A CAPPELLA CHOIR In singing there ' s always a tune. And rhythm so dear to the heart ; Rich harmony clear Is sweet to the ear, Oh, singing ' s a wonderful art! So says the poet, and the A Cappellans agree that he ' s right. Much fine music has heen written for this type of choral singing, and to work for its artistic interpretation forms a truly interesting study. Incidentally, the singer learns much about proper voice production ; about reading music and carrying a part ; and proves that the quickest way to learn aboui music is to try to make it. So the Choir members have found themselves steadily improving in this art of singing. One of the interesting activities of the term has been to make a phonographic record of their own singing so that when the record is played liack they can hear themselves as others hear them. The caliinet this semester, which has been most efficient in its man- agement, included : Ed Davis, president ; Glenn Shields, vice-president ; Jane Bascom, secretary; and Marjorie Woods, treasurer; Ina M. Davids, adviser and musical director. GIRLS ' LYRIC CLUB Good music, good fellowship, good times ! Such is the motto of the Lyric Club. Coupled with this is the ideal of good citizenship, involv- ing school and community service. The Lyric Club has carried Manual ' s musical message to church, club, and Parent-Teacher audiences in the dis- trict this term. It has sung for Audubon Junior High School students, and appeared in two fine chorus numbers on Public Schools Night. Several members partici])ated in the great Music Conference Chorus of five hun- dred voices which sang in the Pasadena Civic Auditorium this spring vaca- tion. The Lyric Club joined with other vocal organizations of Manual and the Girls ' Physical Education Department in presenting the Festival of American Indian Music and Dance, and took an active part in the Com- mencement program. The capable cabinet which has directed the destiny of the club this semester included : Virginia Long, president ; Bea Pederson, vice-pres- ident ; Margaret Wessel, secretary; Mary Long, treasurer; Jane Wood, publicity manager; Kathryn Isaacs. acom])anist ; adviser and musical direct(jr, Ina I. Davids. D R A M A A N D MUSI C 181 GIRLS JUNIOR GLEE CLU15 We. the girls of tlie Junior Glee Club, boast of having one of the finest groups on the campus this semester both in quantity and quality. Our membership is large and we have many girls who have been with us ■for several terms. The activities of the club have been rather limited due to our present conditions but we are always willing to cooperate where- ever possible. We are fortunate in having Henrietta Pelta as our most competent accompanist. She has been with the club several semesters and we more than appreciate her talent and ability at the piano, to say nothing of her delightful performance on her accordion for our less serious moods. The officers for this semester have been: Mary Morales, president; Inez Murray, vice-presiden t ; Virginia Taggert, secretary ; Ella Mae Graves and Maude Mitchell, librarians. Miss Blythe is the sponsor. MUSIC CLUB The Music Club brings together a large number of music-loving stu- dents who spend a period every two weeks listening to the concord of sweet sounds originating in bungalow 27. Programs are planned in reference to a general topic of interest, this semester being devoted to typical music of different countries. Good fellowship though music is the club ' s motto. Anyone will suf- ficient interest in good music to attend the meetings is eligible, and cordial invitation is extended to all. The club is sponsored by Miss Lenore Snow. Officers for the semester have been Edith March, president; Virginia Taggert. vice-president ; Josephine O ' Hara, treasurer ; Marjorie Jennings, secretary ; Hugh Melrose, sergeant-at-arms. CONCERT BAND There has been a new nuisical organization added to our school this term. It is none other than the Concert Band under the capable direction of Mr. William T. Killgrove. The band has made very good progress and is one of the best organ- ized bands at Manual. One of the interesting points of the band is that girls are eligible to join. This gives the girls an opportunity to play in a nuisical organization other than orchestras and to develop into good con- cert players. This band has played for almost all of our assemblies. It also played for a Public Schools Program at Audubon on April 10, and was a huge success. The officers wlio liavi (•arri( d lliis band ihrougli a very successlul term are : Howard l erger. president ; Ruin ' Emerick, vice-])resident ; Ella Schultze, secretary ; and Tom Helvy, treasurer. 182 THE ARTISAN S ' 35 i;ovs- ji Mdi: ci.KK CI, in SStfe AKOLIAN CLl D R A M A A N D M U S I C 183 ; Ml ' lHiNK li[j Hi:.-Ti; 184 THE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 BOYS ' JUNIOR GLEE CLUB The Boys ' Junior (ilee Clul) has l)een steadily growing, l)oth in mem- hers and in importance. This organization is open to all hoys in the school who enjoy singing, and wish to learn the fine points of artistic interpre- tation. There are no entrance reciuirements except that of a good citizen record for membership in this club. Many fellows join this group to gain experience to help them in trying out for the Senior Glee Club or the Aeolian Club. The officers this term are: Donald Bachman. president; Bob Cush- nie, vice-president; John Moore, secretary and treasurer; Charles Pinkard and Robert Hastings, librarians. Miss Elizabeth R. Mottern is the sponsor and director of this organization. THE AEOLIAN CLUB The Aeolian Club during its eleventh term has again proved itself to be one of the school ' s outstanding organizations. Featuring social affairs and outside appearances, this club has provided much enjoyment for each of its thirty-eight members. The outside appearances consisted of singing at a father ' s night in Audubon Junior High School, on several radio programs, and in conclu- sion, by singing on the Commencement Program. A selected group of fif- teen sang in the chorus of five hundred during the California West School music conference at Pasadena, April 17. The cabinet this term was composed of : president, Alan Isbe ; vice- president. Byron Pedersen ; secretary, Kimball Moore ; treasurer, Leslie Tinkler ; librarian, Joe Simpson ; manager, Don Jones ; and student adviser, James Baker. Under the ca])able directing of Miss Mottern, and w ith Arnice Paul- sen as accompanist, the Aeolian Clul) finished an excellent term. LITTLE SYMPHONY The Little Symphony, composed of twenty-four of the school ' s better instrumentalists, is one of the most enterprising of the musical organ- izations. Under the leadership of Mr. Killgrove the group studies only the more serious and classical types of music. On April 10th the Little Symphony ])layed the Don Quixote Suite at Audubon Junior High, for the public schools night program. Graduation music always occupies a major portion of the term ' s work. This consists of an overture, the Aida March, and incidental music while diplomas are being given out. The officers for this term were: Bill Hollenbeck, president; Jimmy Kdberts, vice-president; Kay Isaacs, secretary; and Wayne Hatfield, treasurer. D R A U A AND MUSIC 185 SENIOR ORCIIRSTRA The high ideals of the music department and of Wilham T. Killgrove, director of the orchestra, have been striven for earnestly this year and much has been accomplished. A fellow student passing the room one day said to a friend. To hear one musician does not always affect one ' s senses, but when you hear an ensemble like our school orchestra playing in har- mony in there, you are moved to heights of ecstasy, or lulled to shades of quietude, and you realize what our orchestra is capable of doing. The orchestra studies music of the highest type and gives players a knowledge of the works of the greatest composers, and an idea of fine in- terpretation which is invaluable to the serious music student. However, it is not all work, as the club had a semi-annual picnic with the other instrumental organizations. This term it was held at Expo- sition Park. We are glad to say, we swam in a real swimming pool, and not one of natural sources such as we enjoyed (or did we?) last term. This picnic was truly enjoyed by those who attended. Here ' s to bigger and better picnics in following semesters. The capable officers who helped us put over a successful term have been : president, Bruce Mac Rae ; vice-president, Ellen Brown ; secretary, Dorothv Martin ; and treasurer, Robert Hunt. SYMPHONIC BAND The main ol)jective of this organization is to study some of the more modem compositions such as Manhattan Serenade, and some of the very interesting symphonic arrangements of older compositions done in present day dance rhythms. There is also a vocational side to the work of this group, for it gives the kind of training essential to playing with the modern dance orchestras. Some of the members of this organization are planning seriously to take up this kind of work. There are many business opportunities open to players who are familiar with the latest good ma- terial for dance orchestras of the best class, and who can play this music well. As the players in the Symphonic Band are selected for ability and serious interest, much has been accomplished this term, and as the number in the group is small, there is an opportunity for individual work among the members. The social activity of the band this semester took the form of a picnic with the other orchestral clubs at Exposition Park. Officers for the term have been: president, Elizabeth Schaal ; vice- president, Wayne Hatfield; secretary. Muriel Vanderwalker ; and trea- surer. Jack Cregerson ; adviser and musical director. Mr. William T. Kill- prove. 186 THE ARTISAN S ' 3 5 A GRADUATE ' S OUTLOOK Bv Jewel DeRemee For twelve years now, we have gone each day to school — we have tried to follow, to the best of our aliility. the course laid out for us. We have passed through the various stages of childhood and adolescence. Now we are adults. We have built up our air-castles, our dreams and ambitions — and now we are ready to fulfill them. However, there faces us one of the greatest problems of all time, the Depression. Some of us, in these past few years have had our homes taken out from under us, have seen our parents become white haired with financial worries. From every side of us we have heard talk of the depression. It has not discouraged us, however. Instead it has made us more than ever determined to win out. Not only has it made us realize the problems we are about to face ! It has made us stronger ; in our minds, each one of us has found a way to solve these difficulties. Never, do we want to go through the strife that our parents have, we intend to readjust the world to the best of our abilty. There is room for anyone who has the ambition and the grit to stick to a thing. Confidence in ourselves is going to be one of our greatest advantages. Yes, we do have confidence in ourselves! In each one of our carefully trained minds there is the knowledge that we will be a success. In this modern world there are many chances to be caught and sucked into the whirlpool of life. There are some of us who probably won ' t be able to take it. These few will forget their ambitions, will watch their bubbles burst and fall into oblivion, without regret. They will be per- fectly satisfied to let life drift along as it may. Then there will be those who, because of their initiative, their eager- ness, will be leaders. They will be the great statesmen, the outstanding .scientists. They will be the ones who will live forever. The rest of us will be followers. We will be successes is our own walk of life, but will never be great. Who will be caught in the whirlpool? Who will be the leaders? Who will be the followers? That we cannot foretell. All we know is that, right now, as we stand on the threshold of life, we are each sure that we will conquer the world. ¥em } €s 188 THEARTISANS ' 35 I ' RINCI PAL ' S MESSAGE TO THE VIKINGS In liistorv the naiiK ' of the Vikings was one to inspire awe. Their achievements were notahle in discovery, conquests, colonizing, and government. The hest government in England was that in l ast Anglia under the Danes. The hest government in France was that of the Normans in Normandie. Toward the east they were instrumental in estahlishing orderly government in Russia. They had great influence in the estah- lishment of the institution of chivalry. They were great navigators, the foremost of their time. It was no mean achievement to transport armies of ten to twelve thousand men in fleets of open hoats numhering as many as two hundred and fifty, over great distances of uncharted waters. Their hoats each transported forty to sixty men, propelled hy twenty oars and only partly dependent upon sails. The warriors were thoroughly organized and inspired with a joy of hattle that is difficult now to comprehend. Their enthusiasiu for hattle was so great that they went herserk. which with them descrihed a con- dition where the warrior whirled in joyous fury at the thought of en- countering his opponent. At fifteen years of age the wal ls of his ancestral home hecame too narrow for the young ' iking, and he hurst forth to hew his way to con- ([uest and fame. By all accounts these individual X ' ikings nuist have heen of imposing stature and strength. The English included in their Prayer I ' ook : A furore Xormannoruiu lil)era nos — From the fur - of the North- men, deliver us. The X ' ikings have a had name in history. They allowed their victims to write the accounts of the X ' ikings which have come down to us as authentic history. However, in their own sagas and hallads. they ap])ear to hetter adxantage. It is undouI)te(lly the joy in life and in hattle. the fearlessness in en- counter, the organizing ahility. the hosintality to friend or foe. and the tidelity to word or promise, of the ' ikings that has induced the memhers ot the Class of Summer ' 35 to adopt their name as a design ation for them- selves.

This annual celebration is looked forward to by every boy in high school. This year ' s celebration started on April 28 and ended May 4 with a bang. Ai)ril 30, Boys ' Day in citizenship, eight officers of the city govern- ment were under the direction of Manual Arts boys. Tom Kennedy became Fire Chief for a day ; James Kaylor, City Engineer; George Smith, in the department of water and power; John Di Betta, President of the Chaml)er of Commerce ; Cecil Bayless, Police Administrator ; Darwin Tiemann, a position in the Police Department. Boys ' Week is the only celebration of its kind and dates back to ancient times. It is celebrated throughout the entire nation. Tn every city boys took part in g(jvernment, industry, libraries, churches, schools, and recreation. Friday, May 31, was Boys ' Day in the school. That was the day when the faculty took a back seat. The boys ran the school. James Murdoch, was principal; Bill McBurnie, Miss Hanna ; James Baker, boys vice-])rincipal ; Abie Wishnevsky, registrar ; Dan Kauf- mann, head of the gym department ; Ray Johnson, head of the journa- lism de])artment ; Fred Legget, head of the commerical ; Bill Hamel, head of printing department; and Joe Potts, chief custodian.

German customs, carefully selected songs, a superb plot, and a fine cast combined to make perfect entertainment of Immensee, a play pre- sented to tbe student body, Tuesday, May 21, in tbe Little Theatre in 265. The cast of the play had been carefully selected, and throitgh its excellent performance, signified its endeavor to give the Manual students a worthwhile show. The German accent and pronunciation of the actors was nearly flawless, making the play run natural and true to life. Staged on a set specially prepared l)y Mr. Scbwankovsky, the forest background and rural atmosphere did much to enhance the beauty of the production. Acclaimed hx all who attended, a complete success, the play goes down as another interesting chai)er in Manual history. 192 T H E A R T I S A N S ' 3 5 GROUND BREAKING By Jewel DeRemee May 1, 1935. will not be forgotten l)y any Alanualite, for on that memorable day ground breaking ceremonies were held, which means ihat a new and better Manual looms in the future. The Vikings who are graduating had hardly grown to know and love the old school, its dim corridors and beautiful gardens, when it was suddenly shaken from beneath their very feet. The old walks crumpled, the gardens lay smothered under the debris — the students were separated, sent to two different schools, until a place could be made. Great cracks made nearly all the buildings unsafe, those old desks which we had be- come acquainted with, were hauled away. Before our eyes. Manual was demolished — clouds of dust arose. When it cleared away, little was left to remind us of the beautiful school which we had left those few short weeks before. Then a new city built up — our ])ungalow city — board walks were built and lovely gardens sprung up. For nearly two years, those little gray houses have served in place of tall, beautiful buildings. The student body and the faculty have cooperated well during this hectic time — and now wc are proud of our little city. Soon this too, will disappear. One by one each little bungalow will be taken away, but this time there will be a smile on our faces as we see new modern buildings grow on the same spot where the old Manual stood. The ground breaking ceremonies are the final proof — steam shovels immediately started working when Dr. Edward W. Hauck, President of the Board of Education, removed the first shovelfull of earth, with a gilded spade. The buildings to be erected are the administration building and the science building. The administration building will include the library, art department, and history rooms. In the science buildings will be biological and physical science. These buildings will cost $247,000 and they will be finished by Deceml)er. This means that the next class will graduate in new Iniildings and there will probably l)e no more outside graduations. But after all it has been great fun, and not one of us will ever forget the splendid times we have enjoyed in our little grav homes in bungalow city. F E A TURK S 193 Dr. Edward TTauck and Miss Elizabeth Bates lifted the first shovels- full of dirt that meant the beginning of a new Manual Arts, while Dr. Ford and Dr. Wilson stood by awaiting their turns. This groundbreaking ceremony was one of the greatest events in Manual ' s historv and will not soon be forgotten by those who witnessed it. ► 194 T HE ARTISAN S ' 35 COMMENCEMENT To the Colors Color (juard from Manual Arts R.

VIKLINGS FEATURES I97 AMERICAN INDIAN FESTIVAL By Ruth Beeson Soft lights revealed a tiny clearing, surrounded by a dense, dark forest, the trees of which seemed to whisper silent messages to the Indians who waited there. In the distance stood the chief ' s wigwam with a cheery fire burning beside it. Suddenly an Indian came from the forest and broke the silence by a l eautiful song. He was the chief priest giving the sunrise call. He was painted in warlike fashion and had a huge head-dress. Soon a wild whoop sounded from the forest and Indian warriors ran in from every direction. They were painted in many wild designs, wore short war-dresses, and carried shields which they used in the war-dance. With a sweet, tinkling sound from the ornaments on their dresses, the Indian maidens arose and danced some authentic Indian dance steps. Then came the Indian wedding dance which was done like a real Hopi Indian Blanket Wedding. With the Omaha Prayer Song, the dance of Pan-Puk-Kee-Wis be- gan. This dance pictured the hunt, the attack, and the victory, and ended with a wild, victorious shout. Between the dances, there were songs and stories telling of the life and marriage of Hiawatha. As the last final whoop resounded through the forest, the Indians gathered around their campfire and the night descended. This story of Indian life was presented by the music organizations and girls ' dancing class of Manual Arts. The cast included : the girls dancing class as the Indians and directed by Miss Megowan, Mr. Joseph Sullivan, alumni, as chief priest, Mr. F. J. Schwankovsky as the narrator, Mr. R. H. Drake as dance interpreter. The songs and musical selections were presented by the following: Girls ' Junior Glee Club directed by Vir- ginia Blythe; A Cappella Choir, Girls ' Lyric Club directed by Ina M. Davids; Boys ' Aeolian Club directed by Elizabeth Mottern; Manual Arts Little Symphony directed by Mr. Wm. Killgrove. The wigwam, tom-toms and one head-dress were loaned i)y the Woodcraft Rangers. The Indian rugs were secured from the Arizona Trading post and other ])roi)erties were loaned by friends and students of Manual Arts. 198 THEARTISANS ' 35 IF WE FORGET Bv Jack Carlo w Glory, which the l)attlefield is presumed to define.

A competition was held among the high school students of every community for design and building of the houses in this model village. The house entered by Manual Arts was laid out in the drafting room and assembled in the woodshop. The shutters were made by the auto sheet- metal shop, curtains by the domestic science class, and the balcony in the foundry. After all the houses were assembled, the jury of the Southern Cali- fornia Institute of Architects studied them and selected the one they Hk ' ed best. Trophies were given for the best construction and design. FEATURES 201 FEDERAL HOUSING CONTEST SUB DISTRICT FINALS Bv Pait[. Hamilton May 17, 1935. Fairfax Hi h School With a surge of oratorical splendor that swept the judges from their feet, the girl representative from Fairfax and the boy representative from Los Angeles high school, pushed themselves into the city finals of the National Speaking Contest. Speakers of such quality as these have a mar- velous opportunity of reaching the National finals in Washington. The contest is being sponsored by the Federal Housing Adminis- tration in line with its Better Housing Program. With a first prize of $1000 for l)oth the boy and girl winners, it is a worthy goal to strive for. At 8 o ' clock, on the night of May 17, the various school winners were called together at Fairfax for the purpose of picking the city entrants. Inspired by a capacity audience of about 25 persons, all of the contestants gave a premium performance. The chairman, Mr. MacDonald. and the three judges, handled to perfection a program that had, seemingly, no pre-arrangement. After introducing the judges Mr. MacDonald delivered a brief description of the contest as a whole. Then calling on the contestants according to the number each had drawn, the meeting was finally disposed of. With about ten minutes deliberation the judges ]Mcked a boy and a girl winner and a runner-up in each division. Although not mentioned among the ultimate winners. Miss Beatrice Fuller of Manual Arts gave a commendable performance. After City Finals, County Finals. State Finals, National Semi-Fin- als, the Nationals will l)e held on June 15 at Washington. 202 THEARTISANS ' 35 THE OCEAN By Catherine Wagner I love the majestic ocean. I love the raving waves. The rhythm of its motion. And its hallow coral caves Its grasping arms come reaching O ' er all the rocks and stones. With lowly gentle whispers, Or loud and snarling moans. The giant walls of salty foam Come reaching to your feet, And when you see them toss and roam Your heart just skips a heat. I love the luring romance Of its depths so far untold. Its thrilling, pounding, lilting dance That never has grown old. I long to see the ocean The enormous deep blue bay. And thru the many years to come I hope sometime I may.

Well, sah, said Mose, It ' s like dis.

Your Honor, I submit that my client did not lireak into the house at all. He found the window o]ien and merely inserted his right arm and re- moved a few trifling articles. Xow my client ' s right arm is not himself and I cannot see how you can ])unish the whole individual for an offense com- mited by one limb. Judge Blaha : All right, I sentence the defendant ' s right arm to one year ' s imprisonment. He can accompany it or not as he chooses. At which the defendant smiled, unscrewed his ccM ' k arm and walked out with his law}er. Gimme a dime, will ya, guvnor.- I wanna go into this classy res- taurant. Why, you poor fellow, what can you get for a dime in that high- toned place?

A grade crossing often is a place where headlights and lightheads meet. Truck drivers like their profession, because they run into so many interesting people. Some people have no respect for age — unless it ' s bottled. Almost any day we expect the service boy at the filling station to lean in and i)ick our teeth. The easiest way to lose control of the car is to miss a payment on it. A little detour now and then, makes good business for tire men. You can ' t rise with the lark if you have been on one the night l efore. Many a person will forget the i)ast for a present. A blotter is something you look for while the ink dries. Flattery is a soft .soa]) and a soft soap is 90% lye. Son-rise at our house is 5 :30 a.m. It ' s a great kindness to trust people with a secret. They feel so im- portant while telling it. A fountain pen is like you. It runs off at the mouth because there is very little in it. Give a husband enough rope, and he ' ll want to skip. No, Gracie, the new bridge rules will not interfere with those along the highways. To some men, a wife is known as the better half. To others, she ' s the whole thing. JNIanv a man ' s i)ants are a .shining example of married life. If he is called Jones it means he is too insignificant to deserve the mister or too great tf) need it. That the hunters of Northwest Canada rarely speak. They open their traps once each winter. The best looker in the world, however, without doubt is a Scotchman who has lost his golf ball. And regardless of the economic situation, the kangaroo is always su- premely hoppy. Remember that frequently the fellow who claims to have a hunch is merely round shouldered. 216 THE ARTISAN S ' 35 A Word of Thanks The roar of the presses is stopped ! Regretfully, yet thankfully, I watch the last page of the Artisan being taken out of the press. Then with a sigh I drop into my chair and taking my pen in hand — write these few last lines of congratulations to my staff. I unhesitatingly place Jewell De Remee, who was in charge of features, as my most valuable assistant. Hard working, cheerful, always giving a helping hand, not only in features but in many departments. The art work was under the direction of Thomas Barnes, who also designed the end-sheet and several division plates. With Robert Marine doing the design work and Ernest Hamer the lettering and cover design, the art work is all of the best that could be found. I hereby thank you three and your gallant adviser Schwanny. Earl Mittler ran the snapshot end of the Artisan. He spent long hours maybe, picking the snapshots that a])])ear here, and I think he ditl a good job of it. All good business institutions have a stenographer and ours was no excerption. Rosalie Barbaro was our secretary and we have her to thank for the order ( ? ) that our affairs have been kept in. She also supplied our linotype operators with type-written copy, which helped the speed with which our material ap])eared in cold type. Joe Earley, the assistant editor, was another invaluable person on my staff. He did fine and speedy work on the linotype. Wesley Nelson ' s sports experience on the Daily gave him the fine ability which he has unloaded in the sports section. The School Life section was directed by Ruth Koontz. Ruth made every effort to make a section that would reveal Alanual. We hope you like it. The job of chasing advertisements fell to Leonard White. It would lie almost impossible to ])ul)lish an .Artisan without advertisements, hence the importance of the position. Leonard has worked hard and faithfully, getting the local merchants to advertise in the Artisan. My sincerest ai)preciation is extended to Air. Greenup, Air. Nelson, Air. Reeder, and Air. Phil Barrow and the ])rintshop and bindery crews. It would have been impossible to produce the book which you are now reading if it had not been for their untiring effort and unceasing co- operation. H U M O R 217 The credit for the color scheme used in this Artisan goes to my very good friend, Arthur JoqueL So I thank them one and ah, and if I have left anyone out of these credit lines, just know that your efforts have heen appreciated even though your name has heen omitted. So as I close, I sincerely hope you have as much pleasure reading this hook as we had in puhlishing it. The extensive list of groups to he photographed was done with care and skill by D. M.

Slowly, more newspapers were started, printing facilities were ini- l roved and the pages became more attractive and balanced. In America we copied the English newspapers, but our sheets rapid- ly became more sensational. In all parts of the country papers sprung up, until, now there are thousands of daily newspapers in the United States. Journalism, however, is a comparatively new field. Only in recent years has journalism been taught in schools. The Manual Arts Weekly gave opportunities here to would-be news- paper men. Now the Daily has replaced the Weekly and the presses grind in printshop day after day while the young journalists sit at the copy desk, reading copy, proofreading, or writing. Never do they slack. The youthful editor keeps them busy and the journalism teacher instructs them. These hours at the copy desk train the students for real journalism v rork. These boys and girls are treated as regular newspaper men and women. They do little studying out of books. They get their learning through actual experience. Each student has a beat to cover — each young reporter is given assignments wdiich he must do. There can be no slacking. The Daily depends on the copy they turn in. Columnists get their first start in the Daily, feature and news writ- ers find out whether they ' re any good or not. Some discover that they are not made of the right stuff for newspaper work while some find real talent in themselves. A college education is not necessary to get a job on a newspaper. It depends on the person entirely, whether he gets a job, and if he does, whether he will stick. Ever day journalists are being hired, more than in most professions, and once }ou get on, there ' s no limit to the possibilities offered. Salaries can be low and high, and there is never any lack of ex- citement, in this line of work. It ' s a great life if vou don ' t weaken — and as they say, A newspajK ' r man seldom dies, because he hasn ' t got time. -Finis Signatures Signatures Signatures • t; ; M f - Signatures Signatures •i • -is « wsnf ' ' . .V.
