Four years ago the Class of '28 was a big class. Many have dropped by the wayside but the fittest and the luckiest remain. Now soon we too will leave M. C. H. S., and we'll have but memories of this school. But they will be pleasant mem- ories and will bring back old classmates, teachers, and times. While we have remained in school, we have held on high our standards. We have triumphed in many fields and have been ably represented in all activities. We have obtained from this school exactly what we have put into it. If we have put forth our best foot, our best effort, the school has given its best. lf, however, we have worked only indifferently, the school has paid us in our own coin. But this is no time for reminiscences. The past lies behind us, the future ahead. Let us go on and each one strive to do his best always with the memory of our school driving him on to greater effort. And let us work as we have learned to work here for the honor of ourselves and our own Mason City High School. ln the past we have been wont to scoff at this institution, to express that we hated Latin or Math. But let us be honest with ourselves, confess, do we really leave this building with a feeling of joy? Has this building been merely a place where we have spent six hours a day, or has it meant more than that to us? For me at least, it means more than that. Mason City High School has come to occupy an important place in my memory. It has been the center of our lives for four years. Here we have formed acquain- tances, habits, and ideas. There will be nothing which can quite take the place of High School, once we have left it. No! It is not with a feeling of joy that we leave this fine old building, but with a feeling akin to regret. Most of us, when we have finished High School will conclude that our education is finished. This is untrue, our education is merely started. Cao on, go further, acquire more knowledge. The Class of '28 has talent and with proper training, great men and women will be developed. Great lawyers, and doctors, and poets, and artists, may spring from this class, for assuredly we have had talent, the foundation of such greatness, nourished and encour- aged in M. C. H. S. Here, in this school, we have developed friendships and acquaintances that will be a constant help and source of joy all our lives. Together we have worked our Math. and Physics, together we have scrubbed paint from our sidewalks. Each gave someone a helping hand, and in doing so learned the value of co-operation-the value of a true friend. But the end draws nigh. Soon we must leave th.is wonderful building where so many of our waking hours have been spent. But we shall always remember the good times we had here and when asked the school from which we graduated a touch of pride will creep into our voices as we answer: M, C. I-I.

Senior Class History HE navigator of the airliner Ares suddenly viewed a landmark on a plot of ground within a few miles of a small body of water. After alight- ing, curious to know what the ruins might disclose, he entered the building, crossing a threshold of the corner room. He saw upon the dilapidated table several musty volumes with lVlasonian inscribed on the cover. He read a few pages: now enrolled in the great institution of learning as Freshmen. We at- tended our first football games and were at once enticed by the heroes on the field--and off. We trembled with fear at the thought of our first six weeks' card, but the year ended favorably for most of us. By this time we are accustomed to the wave of the upper classmen. Many successful pep meetings were held this year under our hero, Doc Kline. ln November we had two days' vacation. We were unable to discover what it was for-whether it was because of Thanksgiving or because Warren Reiner started to wear long pants. We nobly lent our support to the basketball team. As upper classmen we were far superior to other lesser beings. Class spirit overflowed and many misunderstandings resulted. To cap the climax the Seniors were given a cold bath in the creek. The class play, lt Happened in June , was a great success. The Junior-Senior Banquet we attended for the first time and received the thrill of our lives, since it was held at the Hanford Hotel. One of the interesting events, how- ever, was the manufacturing of three hundred nut cups at three o'clock the day of the banquet by a few of the more industrious Juniors. As members of the graduating class we were responsible for many duties. Among the outstanding ones which took our attention were the taking of pictures fa painful processj, the ordering of announce- ments fwhen we learned for the first time just who our relatives were and where they residedj, the editing of the Masonian, and last, but by no means least, procuring dates for the junior-Senior banquet. After many years of hard labor we are at last privileged to leave M. C. H. S., much to the profound grief of the faculty. It has been a long, hard, tough pull for many of us, clear sailing for a few, and just slow plodding for the rest. But we have all had a good time, haven't we? l wonder what that could possibly be, said the navigator of the airliner from Mars. On his next journey to the cave of the Cumaean Sibyl he brought his find along and showed it to her. She said: Why, that's the class history of the Class of l928 of Mason City High School, Mason City, lowa, U. S.

NE of the most brilliant nuptial events of the social season in the Capital was the wedding of Miss Virginia Anderberg, beautiful daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Anderberg, formerly of Mason City, but now resid- ing at 507 Potomac Drive, Washington, D. C., and Captain ,lack Woisnak. The ceremony took place at high noon, Wednesday, June 3, I935, and never had St. Mark's presented such a beautiful appearance for a military ceremony. The altar and chancel were a mass of white and yellow roses. Predominating, however, were the delicate yellow blossoms from the gardens of Mrs. Thayne McConnell, who will be remembered as Miss Gretchen Meyer before her mar- riage to the Assistant Secretary of War. The Rev. Rennie Rankin, close friend of the groom, read the service. I-ie was assisted by Rev. Frank Han- ner ancl Rev. Merrill Funk. Miss Josephine Odle of Mason City, whose engagement to a certain noted young football coach at the University of Iowa has just been announced, was the maid of honor. Bridesmaids, all former classmates of the bride, included Miss Marion Barr, technician at the Walter Reed I-lospitalg Mrs. William Shriver of Charles City, who friends will remember as Miss Doris Almklovg Miss Sarah Tokman, who has just returned from a trip around the worlclg Mrs. Volney Wilfong, nee Miss Ruth Sullivan, wife of the noted Dr. Wilfongp Miss Kathryn Kohl, librarian at the Congressional Library: and Mrs. Marcia Tubbesing Grubb, whose husband is the leader of the United States Marine Band. Since it is customary at a military wedding, Captain Woisnak not only had one best man, but sixteen best men , who on the count of four drew forth their sabers and crossed them, forming a canopy under which the bride passed as she came down the aisle on the arm of her father. These men in- cluded the officers of the groom's regiment: Captains Lester Riley, Alfred Kellum, Emmanuel Eggert, Edmund Peake, and Arlin Inman, and Lieutenants Sam Newburg, Cyrus Renshaw, Richard Senneff, Harry Evanson, George Curtiss, Clarence Mikelson, Clifford Hamblin, Roger Johnson, William Bart- mess, Kermit Larson, and Charles Pearce. As the prcoession wended its way down the aisle, Miss Bonnie Beeler, organist at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City, played Lohengrin's familiar bridal march. During the service a quartet from the Metropolitan Opera Company sang the bridal chorus from The Rose Maiden cantata. The group was composed of Phyllis Jordan, soprano: Ruth Barclay, contraltog Lawrence Cain, tenor, and Leon I-logan, baritone. The bride wore a frock fashioned of chiffon in the conventional whiteg the tiered skirt was scalloped and outlined with pearls. A belt of pearls was Pb' 'JZ ...... 3b 'J5 ...... Fl, 'Ji ...... ......

The dress was purchased at Mlle. Mary Anne Gould's shop in Paris when the bride was on a shopping tour abroad not long ago. A string of perfectly matched pearls, a gift of the groom, was her only adornment. She carried a shower bouquet of white rosebuds and valley lilies. The maid of honor wore an ecru frock with a velvet picture hat and carried a bouquet of yellow shasta daisies. The bridesmaids wore frocks of yellow chiffon with velvet picture hats and carried yellow daisies. lmmediately following the ceremony there was a reception at the home of the bride's parents. The First Lady of the Land, whom Mason City people will remember as Dorothy Decker, daughter of jay Decker, although pre- vented from attending the church service by a previous engagement, was a guest at the reception. There were also a number present from the foreign legation, among whom was the Ambassador from the Court of Saint james, Everett Angell, and his wife, who was Rose Schmall before her marriage: an attache from the French Embassy, Stanley Norquistg and the Misses Laura Tank, Florence Tubbesing, and Miss Pauline Kreutzbender, employees of the Treasury office. Those guests from out of the city for the wedding were Merrill Shanks, cartoonist for the magazine, Whiz Bang , Miss Ruth Lyons, assistant manager of the new Hippoclrome Theater in New York City: Wil- liam Cross, successor of Knute Rockne as head football coach at Notre Dame University, and his charming wife QPU, Edwin Matzen, head of the Agri- cultural Experiment Station at Ames, Iowa, and his wife, whom friends will remember as Grace Curran before her marriageg Col. Warren Wilcox Reiner, stationed at Fort Sheridan: Miss Evelyn Bistline, teacher in the high school in Porto Rico, and Mr. and Mrs. Paul Pedelty, Leland Stanford, Palo Alto, California. A party of Mason City folks who journeyed east for Virginia's nuptials in the private car of Glen Barker, the son of the vice president of the Great Western, included the Misses Imogene Goerdt, Verneil Curtiss, and Marjorie Hughes: lmogene's fiancee: Roger Lehmann, Dean Streeter, Dr. and Mrs. Earl Phillips, and Mr. and Mrs. Glen Barker. Messrs. Virgil Shook and Emerson Fawkes, Rhodes scholars attending Oxford, cabled their congratulations to their two former classmates. Captain Woisnak and his bride are both graduates of the Mason City High School with the Class of l928, and Mrs. Woisnak attended Ferry's Hall, a finishing school for girls. Both the Captain and his wife are well known in Mason City, and their hosts of friends here are hoping for a visit from this charming young couple in the near future. , ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...,.. ...... wx, e Am.

Being of sound mind, although some teachers may present evidence to the contrary, we, the Senior Class, declare the following the property of the underclassmen: ltem l.

Miss Gwynn HE Class of '29 has just finished the seemingly hardest year of school work. Only by showing real spirit and untiring effort have they been able to progress in learning and knowledge. The class may now look back with pardonable pride upon its three years in High School. The class was ably represented in football by Garrolld Gaffney, Larry Meade, George Krieger, Pop Thurtle, Fred Watson, Jay Conley, jim Watts, and Henry Heimendinger, who was elected Captain of the '28 team. Pop Thurtle, Hughes Bryant, Donald Port, Irving Belseth, and Milford Scherf are all expected to see action in our next year's basketball team. The first two named received the much coveted M this year. Pop will cap- tain next year's team and we will all wish him good luck. Henry Heimendinger, ,lack Miller, Howard Ewing, and Hughes Bryant were our representatives in track last year, Hughes being elected Captain of this year's team. The Junior Class also has a capable yell leader in John Wallace and a hard working manager in Clem McGuire. Louise Leach and John Wallace took part in dramatics. On March 16th the Junior Class presented Cappy Ricks under the di- rection of Miss Treman, who deserves a great deal of credit for this splendid production. Max Hight, as Cappy Ricks, performed an excellent piece of acting, as he portrayed an elderly gentleman who was used to having his slightest wish respected. Florence Ricks, his charming daughter, was ably played by Ruby Weber. Captain Matt Peasley, who falls in love with Flor- ence, and shoulders the incredible task of successfully defying Cappy Ricks, was played extremely well by Lawrence Meade. Cecil Pericles Bernard, the Englishman who is engaged to Florence but loves Ellen Murray, Ricks' sec- retary, was played by Albert Barclay. He kept the audience in shouts of laughter almost the entire time he was upon the stage. Ellen was portrayed with ease by Katherine Sheffler. John Avise took the part of John Skinner, Cappy's meek general manager. Clarinda Anderson was Aunt Lucy, or Cap- py's sister, and showed real ability. Both Garrolld Gaffney as Edward Sin- gleton, a lawyer, and Abraham Traub, as Brookfield, the chauffeur, played their parts well. Many complications arose but were smoothed over and the usual happy climax was brought about. .f Pb .... ..... rl .... Sophomore Class THEOREM-If the Sophomore Class has a good outlook, write it up. GlVEN-The Sophomore Class. TO PROVE-The Class of l930 equals a bright and intelligent class. PROOF: Debate: The mighty words and the desire for argument of Tom Yoseloff, Thayer Currie, and Joseph Ober have been shown in debate. lf equals are added to equals the result is equal. CAX. LJ Chorus: The lusty voices of the Sophomore warblers have helped prove that lVl. C. H. S. has some excellent vocal ability. We helped make both the Christmas Pageant, The Nativity , and the Operetta, Once in a Blue Moon , a great success. The fact that the Sophomore warblers exist proves this. CAX. 999.3 Athletics: Speed Mason certainly sounds promising, doesn't it? With him will be added Bob Moore and Joe Manning, athletes in foot- ball. The whole is equal to the sum of its parts. CAX. 6A.J Band and Orchestra: The band and orchestra of M. C. H. S. for the year l927 and l928 have been well represented by the Sophomores. lf equals are added to equals, the sums are equal. QAX. l., Freshman Class lTH fear and trembling, open mouths, and staring eyes, we, the Fresh- man Class, entered the Mason City High School on September 6, l92 7. What is beyond these huge portals? Are Freshies initiated? Will the upper classmen tease us and call us green? These and many other questions were uppermost in the minds of us puzzled and perplexed Freshmen when the time came for us to step into the august presence of other members of M. C. H. S. The Freshmen went out for many of the major sports. The girls tried out for hockey, volley ball, basketball, etc. The boys went out for football, basketball, etc. Buford Billman and Leonard Kenny won their lVl's in athletic work. Willis Parrott, Harrison Kohl, Stuart Kelsey and William Armstrong won numerals. Raymond Hughes and Arnold Tice received emblems for debate. Ten Freshmen were active in declamatory work. Two of our Freshmen, Peggy Senneff and Catherine Curtiss, displayed their talent in the All High School Play. Looking back on the year and considering all things, we tlink we Fresh- men have learned much during our first year. When we come back next fall we think we have obtained enough knowledge to be called Sophomores. ..... .... .... .... .... YQ! Xq3yYq3y'Yr1i YfSyYrwy'Yfy?f Ji ...... ...... Ji ...... F1F Ji.. ....

GUEST HEN the burden grows heavy, and rough is the way, When you falter and slip, and it isn't your day, And your best doesn't measure to what is required, When you know in your heart that you're fast growing tired, With the odds all against you, there's one thing to do: That is, call on your courage and see the thing through. Who battles for victory ventures defeat. Misfortune is something we all have to meetg Take the loss with the grace you would take in the gain. . When things go against you, don't whine or complain: just call on your courage and grin if you can. Though you fail to succeed, do not fail as a man. There are dark days and stormy, which come to us all, When about us in ruin our hopes seem to fall. But stand to whatever you happen to meet- We must all drink the bitter as well as the sweet. And the test of your courage is: What do you do ln the hour when reverses are coming to you? Never changed is the battle by curse or regret, Though you whimper and whine, still the end must be met. And who fights a good fight, though he struggle in vain, Shall have many a vict'ry to pay for his pain. So take your reverses as part of the plan Which God has devised for creating a man. .... .... .... .... ..,.

A membership drive ended in a supper party where Adeline Putnam was awarded a prize for suggesting the name Hi-Tri , which was voted the best name submitted. The cause of this ap- parently nameless organization was the combination of the former S. S. Club with the F. F. C. These two organizations, both working for the same purpose and under the same auspices, decided that a combination of the two clubs into one which would include all the girls in High School would be a more profitable and better organization for every one. Our program for the past year was carried out in the form of a cruise on a ship. Printed programs were given to each girl bearing the year's schedule. Hi-Tri Social Program September .

For the first time we had a meeting with the Hi-Y, which was not of a se- rious nature. Our program was exceptionally good, and although we were rather startled at first to see the astonishing number of boys, every one surely had a good time. This year has been a successful one for Hi-Tri, and we feel sure that the combining of these two organizations will not be regretted in the future.

A. is drawing to a close. This success has partly been due to the efforts of the Cabinet, who have to the best of their ability planned and directed the activities of the club. The Cabinet is composed of: Ruth Barclay, Presidentg Verneil Curtiss, Vice Presidentg Katherine Farrell, Secretaryg Katherine Sheffler, Treasurer, Mil- dred Kluck, Head of Sports, Mary Jane Bogardus, Business Managerg Betty Sherman, Assistant Business Manager, Marjorie Hughes, Recreation Chair- man: Mary Gould, Program Chairman, Catherine Curtiss, Freshman Repre- sentative. The club advisers were: Helen Platt, Tommy D. Priest, Jeanette Selby, Ellen Smith, and Esther Staples. The social activities of the Girls' Athletic Association began with the an- nual membership banquet which followed a successful membership drive. It was held in the school cafeteria, which was uniquely decorated. A toast by Miss Treman proved very interesting as well as instructive. Miss Boul- ware, the Lincoln School Music lnstructor, delightfully entertained with a violin solo, and Catherine Curtiss, with a dance. The second social event was a l-lallowe'en party. All the girls were beautifully costumed. Catherine Putnam received a prize for being the most attractively attired. The November party was a Lucky Lindy party. ln the decorations and games, airplanes were attractively used. The party was well attended. The December entertainment was a Christmas party for the kiddies, with the appearance of Santa Claus and his familiar bag of Christmas candy and toys. Owing to the absence of snow and difficulty in obtaining the gym, the january, February, and lVlarch parties were combined into the Colonial Ball. The decorations were in St. Patricl-:'s Day colors. The refreshments also car- ried out this color scheme. The grand march was led by the cabinet mem- bers, as is usually the custom. Specialties were furnished by ,lean Curtiss. The interesting and original club programs held the attention of all the girls. The first meeting of the year was in October. The name of the pro- gram was The Feist for the Eyes , which consisted of the dramatization of popular songs. The prize was won by Miss Hartman. The November meeting was put on by the Junior College under the di- rection of June Barber. The program was very good and received much applause. One of the clever programs of the year was the December program, the title of which was Lights Out . Nursery rhymes were interpreted by the girls in shadow pictures. The January meeting was Amateur Night. All the stunts that were en- tered were done by various groups of girls, which they got up themselves. The prize was won by an acrobatic stunt by Florence Tubbesing, Kathleen Hedges, Margaret Hedges, and Lucille lverson. The February meeting, Love's Reflections was a farce in which a man on the night of his wedding dreamed of all his former sweethearts. The meeting which drew the most interest was the competitive vaudeville between the classes, which was held in March. The Sophomores won with a musical and dance act. The April meeting was in charge of the teachers, Miss Eddy and Miss Selby. This was highly appreciated by the girls. The last meeting of the year consisted of the installation of the new officers who are to lead the club for the year i928 and l929. This is always a solemn and beautiful ceremony. The C. A. A. girls participated in many delightful hikes during the year. ln these the girls hiked to Rudd, to Clear Lake, and a breakfast hike to Port- land. The athletic activities of the club are the fundamental interest. The tennis meet was the first event of the year. The doubles were won by Ruby Oshana and Louise Kern, the singles by Louise Kern. The juniors hold the cham- pionship for hockey-taken from the Seniors who won last year. But the Seniors were victorious over the Juniors in Volley Ball. Three games were played and the Seniors won two. The basketball tournament was won by the Senior girls with a score of I8 to l l. The game was refereed by Coach Judge Grimsley. During the last year many girls achieved their letters and numerals. This year, as in last, numerals were given for making one first team or two second teams. Commercial Club HE Commercial Club is composed of members of business classes- Typing, Shorthand, Business English, Law, and Bookkeeping. Two rep- resentatives from each class were chosen each semester and from these representatives the following officers were elected: First Semester President . .... Mary Gould Vice President . . Leon Hogan Secretary . lmogene Goerdt Treasurer ...... Ruby Weber Second Semester President ...... Lenore Faktor Vice President . Ruth Anderson Secretary . . . Raymond Van Note Treasurer ..... Clarence Mikelson Class Sponsor-Miss Myrtle Albert The Commercial Club this year has been very successful in its object- To give its members a better understanding of the business world and its habits, and to better prepare them to go out into it. The meetings of this club were held the fourth Tuesday in each month. When possible, a business man was asked to talk on some subject pertaining to business. lVlr. Yelland spoke to us on Pens and Their Proper Use , lVlr. Loring told us 1-low to Handle a Typewriter Correctly and a few of the most important mechanical details, Mr. Fischbeck spoke on Business Character , and Mr. Currie gave us a talk on Personality . At each meeting Mr. Nyquist conducted a lesson on Business Manners . Through the speakers and les- sons much was learned about the business world. The Commercial Club's l-lallowe'en and Christmas parties were enjoyed by all that attended, including the teachers. -The club ended its year of activities with a banquet, a dance, and a contest, held on April Zlst.

One of the outstanding events of the club year was the presentation of two plays, The French Maid and the Phonographn and 'iThe Imaginary Aunt at Wheelerwood in October and again at Hanford in No- vember. Some of the social activities of the year were the Thanksgiving party at the H. W. Conover home entertained by Edith Rusley, the Halloween party at the Y. W. C. A., the Christmas party at the home of Mary Marston, the Valentine party at Hebel's entertained by lrma Maasen, the St. Patrick's party at Alene Barber's home, the Easter party at the Y. W. C. A., and the May breakfast at Clear Lake. Last, but not by any means least, is the closing event of the club year, the week-end camping trip of the Seniors at Clear Lake. Miss Mahaffa, our adviser, has ably assisted us in making this a more active and more successful year than ever before. It is sincerely hoped by the club members that in the future the good work will be carried on. Declamatory HE need of the ability to appear before the public has made declamatory one of the leading activities in the school. Miss Treman's idea in de- clamatory has been to develop a group of students who can intelligently interpret literature for an audience. ln this way the individual student gains poise and confidence in himself: his imagination and feeling are arousedg he learns to control himself, his body, and his voice: he learns to express thoughts to others clearly, vividly, and sincerely . Consequently the plan, when carried out, took the students to entertainments and public events rather than so much contest work. The experience gained by them through this plan could not be obtained otherwise. At the beginning of the season fifty-five were out. Thirty of these people entered the preliminary contest. Ten of the thirty have been reading through- out the year, and six of them took part in the county and state contest. This year we had a Freshman team which went to the county district contest and made a good showing, Virginia l-lille of the Dramatic Class placing first. We expect splendid work from these folks next year. We are only losing one member this year, Mary Sue Evans, who, although this was her first year, proved her talent in the state contest. .......

The Debate team also entered the Drake and Cedar Falls tournaments. Those representing Mason City were Paul Pedelty, Virgil Shook, Thayer Currie, Joseph Ober, Arlin lnman, and Tom Yoseloff. Four- teen out of sixteen debates were won by our teams. ln the Drake tournament Mason City almost won, but was defeated by East High, Des Moines, in the semi finals. The greatest success came in the Cedar Falls tournament when we emerged with both first and second places. Sol Benowitz, Robert Hirsch, Ramona Liesveld, Arnold Tice, and Pearl Rohr received numerals. Membership in the National Forensic League was given to joseph Ober, Lilly Schultz, Merrill Funk, Elizabeth Schmidt, Tilly Schultz, and Arlin lnman. The Silver M was given to Paul Peclelty, Virgil Shook, Thayer Currie, and Tom Yoseloff. One of the outstanding events of this season was the American Legion presentation of the silver plaque for excellence in debate work.

We lost almost all of the l926 track team-all of the relay team that set some records for us QC. Kellum, V. Apland, E.. Koerber, and Porter Northl. All of the men were new, excepting Capt. Al Kellum, who was en- tered in the high jump and pole vault. The class track meet sifted out the men for each event. Our first competition was a triangular meet with Clear Lake and Garner, which we won with a great score. We went to the South Dakota relays with a half mile relay team but did not place. The men on the team were Bob Moore, Henry Heimendinger, jack Miller, and Ben Murray. Bob Moore placed fourth in a special hundred yard dash. The team went to the Drake relays, and entered in the quarter and half mile relays, but was unable to place. ln the Big Four Meet at Fonda, Mason City took third place, Captain Al Kellum taking top honors in the high jump and pole vault. Hughes Bryant tied for third in the high jump: Delmar Olson got third in the mile, and Ben Murray placed second in the IOO and 220 dashes. Hampton came here for a dual meet, which was closely contested all the way through. The last event, the half mile relay, was the deciding event and was won by Hampton. Delmar Olson coppecl first in the mile, and Speed Mason took fourth place, winning his first point for Mason City. Captain Kellum was the only one who placed in the National Relays, taking third in the high jump. At the District Meet, which was held at Roosevelt Stadium, Mason City was among twenty schools entered. This was an elimination meet to secure entries for the State Meet at Ames. Kellum placed third in the polt vault, and second in the high jump. Bryant placed third in the high jump, White third in the javelin, and Olson third in the mile. judge took the team to the State Meet but they failed to place. Although Mason City did not have such a successful season much new ma- terial was developed, thus promising a good season for l928 under the capable leadership of Capt-elect Hughes Bryant. fa JL-gk ....... ck .-..... ..--.. gl: ....... ...... :Ji Q, .... ,ls Dxftx lx ,.1Cg1A,lXl5X lCX ..., ....

Girls' Athletics THLETICS have always taken a big part in the activities of the girls of the Mason City High School, but never with such enthusiasm and good sportsmanship as this year. When call for tryouts was issued at the first of the year, the girls signed up with such promptness that it showed plainly there was going to be enough fighting spirit between the classes to last throughout the whole year. On September 26th, the athletic season opened with the tennis tournament. Many contestants entered this tournament, which turned out to be a heated one. Louise Kern defeated Eleanor Prescott for the singles championship, while on November 9th, Louise Kern and Ruby O'Shana of the Class of '29 captured the doubles championship honors from Marjorie Brisbine and Mar- garet Goodman. The second sport to attract the girls began with the call for field hockey tryouts, on October 3rd and l5th. There were nearly a hundred girls from the four classes who tried out. The final game was between the two great rivals, juniors and Seniors, with the juniors, captained by Mildred Kluck, taking the Seniors into camp by a 2 to 0 score. The hard-earned laurels went to Mildred Kluck, Ella Scharlau, Madge Cummings, Geneva Buffington, Nancy l-loward, Edna Blunt, Margaret Dory, Marjorie Mclfensie, Margaret l-ledges, Margaret Goodman, Mildred Birdsell, Viola Wass, Myrtle Weaver, Leta Newman, Laura jean Blumenstiel, and Marjorie Brisbine. ln the next sport of the season-volley ball, the dignified Seniors defeated the Juniors. On December 4th the Seniors broke the jinx and captured their first championship, winning two out of three games. Pauline Kreutzbender led the team, aided by Nelle Woodhouse, Lenore Faktor, Georgia Burmeister, Josephine Odle, Laura Tank, Monica Heiclenreich, Kathleen l-ledges, and Mary Marston. The Class of l93l showed their spirit by winning the New- combe championship, the minor sport of volley ball, while a mixed team was two division ball champs. After volley ball came the call for basketball with its more than usual popu- larity since each first team was to have twelve instead of six members. This brought out all the old players and many new, from which four first teams, showing excellent teamwork and real fight, were picked. A round robin was played with the two older teams coming on top after stiff competition. On the afternoon of February 25th the Juniors and Seniors went into battle, both having won two victories and lost one to each other. By the end of the after- noon the Seniors had proved their ability and four years of playing by com- ing off with the Juniors' scalps. Those who took part in the battle were: Nelle Woodhouse, Captain, Josephine Odle, Monica l-leidenreich, Pauline Kreutzbender, Lenore Faktor, Georgia Burmeister, Kathleen l-ledges, Florence Tubbesing, Dorothy Dale, Mary Marston, Esther Prall, and Mary Louise Felt. On April l2th the swimming meet was held at the Josephine Odle '28, and Peggy Senneff '3l, divided the honors for first place with Eleanor Prescott as a close third and Elizabeth Walker fourth. The baseball tournament and the track meet were held in May. .... .... Jr. COLL ECE , .SEM' JIKEEYQHP ' f- 1. . . 5 The Dean i ARK TWAIN once re- - marked that there was a great deal of talk about the weather but that very little was done about it. Within limits that remark may be applied to education as it is practiced in America gen- erally, and ,lunior College spe- cifically. However, the situa- tion is nothing about which we should grow despondent. To institutionalize an idea is al- ways a dangerous risk. The spirit that created the institu- ' tion is apt to suffer death or at least partial modification. There is not a person in 4 America who would not fight, if need arose, for the main- tenance of education at public : expense. There are all too few ' who would demand anything Q except th.e legal minimum after l its continuance had been as- i sured. When people shop they de- .l. B- MHCGREGOR mand the best value for their money. Education is the only commodity today where the consumer demands less. One of the most per- nicious of current beliefs is that education is free . lt is only free in a very special sense. The self-initiated activity that alone constitutes the educative attitude is not a free gift at all but is won by hard, persistent effort. To expose again one of my carefully cherished and all too oft quoted il- lustrations: The surest way to bring about a revival of learning will be to throw a guard line about our schoolhousesg those students who get through unchallenged to be given instruction, all others to be shot at sunrise. What l am getting at is that we must keep inviolate the belief that educa- tion is an exciting adventure and not a deadening round of routine, that it is a process of growth and becoming, rather than a job that can be completed within set time limits. lt is this process which transforms a person, not the information he acquires. We live in a common world of mutual adjustment, of intelligible rela- tions, of valuations, of zest after purposes, of joy and grief, of interest con- centrated on self, of interest directed beyond self, of short-time and long- time failures and successes, of different layers of feeling, weariness and zest.' We each individually must fit ourselves into this world, that Whitehead has so ade- quately sketched above. To do this let us cultivate a critical intelligence, wide sympathy, keen sensitiveness, persistence in the face of the disagreeable, and a balance of interests that will enable us to see life steadily and to see it whole . Let us acquire here the tools and the technique of learning so that they can be turned successfully to the tasks that challenge us in the future. To those of you who are leaving: success and good wishes. To those who plan to return, the same, and a welcome next fall. May l suggest to all, that you adopt as a member of your thought family Nietzsche's words: ln the mountains of truth you never climb in vain, either you reach a higher point today or you exercise your strength to climb higher tomorrow. JUNIOR COLLEGE STUDENT COUNCIL ALD FINDLAY CHESTER DESART DON Business Manager Editor ..,... ...... .11 ....... ...... ...... Activities IG AND MASK started off with a bang this year. Officers were elect- ed and the meetings were crowded. The Little Theater idea was started and every one grew quite enthusiastic about it. The club was divided into committees and at the meetings the members gave reading rehearsals of several prominent plays. The Wig and Mask gave one play this year, Sauce for the Coslingsu. This was a clever one-act comedy given for the High School and then repeated several times at request. The cast included Herb. Patton, Elizabeth Patchen, June Barber, Chester DeSart, David Holman, Elizabeth Milne, and lrene Holman. Seven Keys to Baldpaten, a mystery play in three acts, was undoubtedly the biggest hit of the year. The play, including male and female parts, was given by an all male cast. It was a very difficult play to produce and much credit should be given those responsible for its success. The following men took part: Dave Davenport, Kenneth Long, Lyall Smith, joe Whitfield, Chester DeSart, Horace Kelly, Junior Heffner, George Klingaman, Harold Combs, Ward Harrison, Victor Glass, George Hill, Er- nest Brunsvold. The play was directed by Miss Eva Treman. Homecoming took a very important part in the year's activities. It was very well attended by the alumni. Many old acquaintances were renewed and a general good time was had by all. The program included a basketball game, the College vs. the Alumni. immediately after the game a program was held in the auditorium. Parts of The Crimson Moth were given and received much applause from the alumni. The climax of the program was the dance held in the ballroom of the Hotel Hanford. The alumni acclaimed the i927 Homecoming the best in years. Two stag parties were recorded on the Junior College Social Register. A party held for Men Only at the Y. M. C. A. was a successful occasion. Games, swimming, and a big feed made up the program. The annual College Y house party held at Clear Lake was a three-day af- fair. About twenty-five girls attended. Although definite reports seem mysterious, the general idea is that the girls had a good time. Open House at Dean MacGregor's home every Sunday night was very important among College social activities. Books were reviewed, short stories and poetry were read. These meetings were most interesting and educational. We wish to thank Mr. and Mrs. MacGregor for their splendid and untiring effort in sponsoring these gatherings. CoHege Debate Affirmative Team George Hill Laurence Jones Milton Hodenfield Negative Team Mary Stevens lrene Holman T would be impossible to say that the past debate season was the most suc- cessful in the history of Junior College, but both the teams broke even, winning two debates and losing two. The first debate was with Wal- dorf, the negative winning the decision and the affirmative losing. Waldorf was about the most difficult team encountered during the season. The second debate was with Boone, the negative team being received with a banquet. Both the affirmative and negative lost to Boone. The debate with Des Moines was successful for both the affirmative and negative. The final debate of the season was with Sheldon. The affirmative won this debate and the negative lost. The Student CouncH HE Student Council is something new in the Junior College. However, that does not mean it is of little importance. The Council is an elective body, chosen by the students with the purpose of managing school affairs and strengthening the bond between the administration and the students. Considering the fact that it is a new innovation in our College, the 'Council has performed their work very efficiently, and has given us an unbiased ad- ministration. The personnel of the Council consists of the President, Vice President, and Secretary-Treasurer, together with a Freshman and a Sopho- more representative, who are: President, Herbert Patton, Vice President, Dean Aviseg Secretary-Treasurer, Dorothy Pagenhartg Sophomore Represen- tative, Dave l-lolrnang Freshman Representative, Irene Holman.

Membership HE College Y has had a very successful year, especially in a financial way. Following the plan started last year a musical comedy, mlqhe Crim- son Mothn, written by june Barber, Elizabeth Patchen, Francis McNeil, and Dorothy Rogers, with dances by june Barber, was presented at the High School Auditorium. Friday, january l3th, and netted the club about a hun- dred and fifty dollars. The girls also presented it at Garner, where it was well received. The efforts of the club in being of service to the College included the sponsoring of a ticket sale for the Armistice Day football game, and in every way possible stirring up enthusiasm for the games. Also the annual banquet for the football and basketball fellows was staged, including this year the debate squad, thus making it an all-college activities banquet. The club succeeded in sending a delegate, June Barber, to the Y. W. con- vention at Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. We hope to be able to send more dele- gates next summer, and it seems quite probable that we can, for the College Y is a lively, growing organization. The Pulse Editorial Staff Editor-in-Chief . . .

A lively Pulse has beat away another yearly vol- ume of Junior College news, recording every phase of Mason City school life. The entire school has entered into the spirit of the student paper this year, and contributions from both High School and Junior College students have helped to make ours an Everybody's paper . As our College has grown our paper too has grown, until today we have a circulation of l300. For the past two years The Pulse has been financially backed by the advertising of the Mason City merchants, who have made it possible for every student to have a copy of each issue. The regular monthly news edition was replaced in the final issue of the year by a burlesque num- ber, full of zest and amusement. The Pulse staff of l927-l928 has found their work both interesting and educational and looks forward to seeing next year's staff enjoy their work in putting out a still bigger and better Pulse. , 1928 Football Season UR first game was with Britt .junior College, which we won easily during a hot, sultry afternoon. The score was 45 to 0. The second game with l.ennox College, Hopkinton, lowa, was played in a sea of mud, the score in the first half being 25 to 0. But at the end of the half it started to rain furiously, making intelligent football out of the question. Vife did, how- ever, succeed in getting one touchdown in the second half, while holding our opponents scoreless. The next game was with the Rochester, lVlinn., ,junior College. The two teams battled to a 0 to 0 tie until late in the third quarter when the Trojans scored on one of C-rimsley's favorite trick plays. We won from them 7 to 0. 'lihe next Saturday the Trojans rested for the hard game with the Esther- ville junior College, They were the first team to cross the Mason City goal line during the i928 season, defeating us after a hard battle I3 to U. After this game the Trojans had a heavier team to fight. Despite the fact that the Sheldon giants outweighed us by a great margin, we tied them I2 to I2 after they had twice scored on us in the second and fourth quarters with but a few minutes left to play. The next game was practically a practice game with the combined Britt High School and junior College teams. The Trojans scored two touchdowns in the first minute of play. Our annual Armistice Day game was with the Des lvloines Catholic junior College again. The weather made the playing of good football impossible. 'l'he ilirojans won I3 to 0. The game with Waldorf was a heart-breaking one for the Trojans. Both the ends were unable to play and Findlay, who was shifted to end, played fifteen minutes while unconscious. Holman, the main cog in the line, broke his leg during the first play and the ground was frozen so hard the backs slipped when they tried to dodge. Although they were not as good a team as one we had beaten, they defeated us 20 to 0. 'lihe 'lihanlcsgiving Day game was with our closest rival, Fort Dodge, played there. What a fight the 'lirojans put up there! Captain Lash passed where he wanted to and when he pleased. Many of the Fort Dodge business men said it was the best working team they had ever seen in action. Grimsley's team completed one perfect play after another to gain continually with their triple-pass plays. Fort Dodge scored seven points in the last half-minute of play but the Trojans already had amassed I9 points to put the game on ice. This was the first time in five years that a Mason City team had de- feated a Fort Dodge team in football. The successful season was largely due to the efforts of Coach judge Grimsley. Although he only had one team and a few subs, he put out a winning team. It was due to his plays and his coaching that the Trojans lost but two games during the entire season. The Trojan backfield was led by Captain Carl Lash, who was just the quar- terback for Grimsley's light and fast team. For Lash was fast, tricky, a good passer, and a good general. The fullback position was held by Law- rence Ginty Magoon, the smallest man on the squad. He was the main cog in our hidden ball plays. Ginty was the only one to play every minute of playing time. Les Logue, a member of the High School team last year, played left half. Les was a deadly tackler, and good at running inter- ference. Logue often carried the ball for gains. He will be back next year. Baird Steece played right half. This was the second year Baird played in the backfield for the Trojans. He was fast and a good defensive safety man. Otto Koerber came out late in the season and worked out for the backfield. He was the fastest man on the squad. Herbert Patton was a member of the backfield but dislocated his knee in the first game. The ends could always be depended upon and were instrumental in winning many of the games. William Bunk Isaacson played right end, was a good punter, and a very good receiver of passes. Lash to Isaacson was a com- bination that gained many yards and touchdowns for the Trojans. Theodore Bus Brewton played left end for his second year. Bus was a good tackler, blocker, and an adept receiver of passes. We are sorry to lose Bus next year. Harold Oops Combs was our sub-end. He came out, worked hard all the time and played some full games in which he did very well. He was a good receiver of passes. Cuddy Nitzkowski was sub for left end. His inexperience held him back but he always gave a good account of himself while playing in a game. Of the tackles Dave Doc Holman was undoubtedly the best. He was the bulwark of the line and always had the other team worried. Doc acted as captain in the absence of Lash. He had bad luck in the Waldorf game for he broke his leg on the first play. Don Findlay, right tackle, saw action in every position but center and fullback. He played well both in the- line and the backfield. Don was a valuable man to the team as there were only a few substitutes. Ben Murray alternated between guard and tackle. He could also play center. Benny was rough, fast, and very aggressive. He was a good tackler and was good on both offense and defense. Our guards were very small but had plenty of fight. The guards were used to run interference. This made them do as much running as the backfield men besides taking the battering in the line. Addison Olson completed two years on the varsity as a guard. Olson had more fight than any other mem- ber on the team. He was exceptionally good on the defense. He leaves a big gap next year. Ward Harrison played left guard. He was a hard work- er, fast, a good defensive man, and very good at running interference. Ward will be back next year and we expect even more of him. Mier Kaufman was one of the finds of the year. This was his first year of football but he made good. Mickey was playing most of the time at the end of the season. Thomas Skarlis was used as sub-guard. He was greatly handicapped in not being able to practice every night, but he came out when he could and worked hard. This year we did not have a sub-center to fall back on. Norman Lysne played the center position and played it very well. He was an accurate passer and a good defensive man. ln a few of the games he was shifted to tackle to strengthen the defense. We lose him next year. 1927-28 Basketball Season HEN Coach Hansen announced practice for basketball fifteen candi- dates reported. After Christmas vacation the squad dwindled to nine. 'lihe team had the handicap of having to practice at 7:30 P. Nl. and this eliminated some of the candidates. As there were not enough men on the squad for two teams, the team did not get the necessary amount of scrim- mages. It was impossible for Captain Frank Pirkl to return to the College this year, so Coach Hansen appointed Don Findlay, veteran forward and guard as the captain. The team's strong point was their five-man defense, although the 'llrojans lost a little more than half the games, only Webster City and Sheldon winning from them by a substantial margin. The strong defense held the other teams to low scores but until late in the season a good scoring combi- nation could not be found. After the addition of Patton to the squad the team showed considerable improvement in nearly every department of the game. ln the State junior College tournament, held at Boone, the Mason City juniors wound up their season by displaying a good brand of basketball to get to the semi-finals before losing, finishing in third place. ln the second round we played Fort Dodge. They did not score a point in the first half and were decisively beaten. ln the semi-finals we were defeated by the strong Sheldon team, who won the tournament. Hansen Coach Volney Hansen coached the Tro- jans for the second year. He held the respect of every member of the team for he took an interest in each player on the squad. Lysne Norman Lysne, the tallest man on the team, played center position. He had a good eye and his height helped him under the basket. Lysne is a Soph- omore in College, so he will not be back next year. Findlay Captain Findlay played left forward, but could and did play every position on the team. Don was a heady player and a hard worker. His place will be hard to fill next year. Olson Addison Olson played right guard for his second year. He was small but was consistent, a good worker, and had plenty of fight. We are sorry to lose Olson next year. Kellum 'Cec Kellum had always played for- ward but was shifted to guard to bal- ance the team. He was fast, hard to cover, and a good defensive man Patton Although Herb Patton was not out all season, he made the All State team. He played guard and was very good on distance shots. He was a big help to the team. Brewton Bus played left forward for his sec- ond year. He was a fast dribbler, a good pivoter, and an excellent floor man. We are sorry to lose Brewton next year. Heffner John Heffner was handicapped in the last half of the season by a sprained hand and later with an infected foot. He was a hard driving forward and had an excellent eye for the basket. ln all probability John will be back next year. 1927 Track Season AST year was the first year track became a recognized sport in the Junior Colleges of lowa. There were only two meets held in this part of the state and the Trojans won both of them. The first was the Estherville lnvitation junior College Meet. Estherville, Webster City, and Mason City were the only colleges entered. With the redoubtable joe Lillard and l..aVal Apland as stars Mason City had little trouble winning this meet. The Trojans won every relay race and also every field event with the exception of the shot put. We more than shared honors in the individual races. The other meet, which could hardly be called a meet, as it consisted of two relay races in the Mason City National High School Relays, was also won by Mason City Junior College. In the two relays Cmile and half mile relaysj the Trojans had but one opponent, Wartburg of Waverly, Iowa. We won both races easily. The mile relay was composed of Daly, Findlay, Tiernan, and Apland, and those on the half mile relay team were Daly, Tiernan, Koerber, and Apland. The state championship was given to Coach McCarthy's team for he had by far the best team in the state. A Ja gk ...--.. BP E..-if Q ..-... ,Ent-UZIQ ..... .... .... .... .... ..,.

THE PIRATE SHIP BY PARK RINARD A former memb THE Pirate Ship, Sweet Garlic , That had once belonged to Spain, Was far famed for its daring deeds Along the Spanish Main. The ship was painted wonderfully ln a scarlet tint of black. The cheese-cloth sail hung gracefully, just like a gunny-sack. The crew was wholly Eskimos, Who'd sailed the Seven Seas, And the men who manned this pirate ship Were Russians and Chinese. lts, skipper, Captain Kidder, Was known by his dark scowl, His musical amusement, Was making prisoners howl. He had a swarthy, fair complexion, His raven hair was red. His pugnose showed his Hebrew blood, And quite bald was his head. This captain held as prisoner, A maid of wondrous beauty, To rescue her, as you shall see, Will be our hero's duty. The maid was very beautiful, As l below have said. Her golden hair of midnight hue, Clung loosely to her head. Her hands were large and freckled, Her pearly teeth were yellow: Her dainty feet were monstrous, These charms took every fellow. The day was stormily peaceful, Not a particle of breeze: They got a hurricane that day, From one POOI' fellow's sneeze. 'Twas around midnight that morning, The crew was about to eat. Violet essence of onions, Rendered the noon air sweet. The men were sitting on their beds, Eating their evening grogg And industriously being lazy, Watching the sunny fog. When sudden the dumb-blind lookout, Bellowed from below: 'AA ship! A ship! l see a ship! Two leagues off the starboard bow. f the Class of '25 Among the calm, excited crew, Peaceful bedlam reigned. The captain slowly rushed around, And had the crank case drained. They hoisted the Jolly Roger , Upon the top mast lowg And went with kindly malice, To meet the friendly foe. The skipper flew in a genial rage, Sitting, he paced the floor: So slowly rapid did he pace, That a hole in his shoe he wore. But our charming girl so homely, Was struck with woeful glee, She blindly saw that she'd be saved, From her prison on the sea. Hope lent the poor thing weakened strength, She ran through the padlocked door By the time she got out on the deck, Live corpses strewed the floor. She took them together, one by one, Just like lambs to the slaughter, And threw them all, with saddened joy lnto the cold, dry water. For those men who so bravely died, We all must joyfully weep. To Davy ,!ones's Locker they all went ln the shallow briny deep. When all the live, drowned pirates, Ceased everlasting breath: She plucked the mainmast from the ship And beat them all to death. She then took time to look around, The empty, crowded deck: And on the glass-like, turbulent sea, She saw a huge, small speck. At once, a little later, She saw it was a man: Hatless with a derby on, Floating in a pan. Her voice, as true as tin rang out, In mumbled accents clear. Softly like a fog horn, She cried, just look who's here! With admiring scorn she gazed upon His bearded face, well shaved, And bawled with piping lusty voice, Oscar! At last l'm saved! Slowly to her he swiftly swam, Quietly he kissed her, And climbed upon the deck. On her pale and blushing face, And there the husky girl so afraid, Making a loud, resounding smack Wept laughing on his neck. With old youth's clumsy grace. Now that my romance is all done, There is one more thing to say, They raised the silken, cheese-cloth sails, And slowly steamed away. Dear Editor: I am on the basketball team and want to smoke.

Saving money is such a game for it requires the bodily health that enables one to earn money in the first place. It requires brain power and will power to see the ad- vantages of saving and to find ways and means of mak- ing it possible. And most of all it requires endurance. Many people can start saving on the impulse of a good intention or the desire for some good things, but the one who wins in this game must keep everlastingly at it. But unlike many another game, success in saving brings material rewards as well as mental satisfaction and bodily comfort. The successful saver gets what he wants, rests secure in the knowledge of his independence and sleeps soundly with no worries of a financial nature to disturb his slumbers. Get into the game of saving now while you are young. Learn the rules and the plays by opening a savings ac- count at this bank and when you acquire the habit of saving you will have acquired something that will profit you all the days of your life.

Are they all concrete and pavement, or do you have more than your share of mud, rough roads, hills, and fields where there are no roads? The Six-Speed Special, built by International Harvester, meets these adverse conditions in a remarkable degree. Six Speeds Forward and Two Reverse The new Six-Speed Special is a popular-priced I-ton truck with a two-range rear axle- an extra low range ordinarily found only in some of the big heavy-duty trucks. The low range. with its three speeds, is for rough roads, mud, fields, hills, wherever the going is tough. Then there is the high range, with its three speeds, for fast hauling where the roads are good. You convert extra speed into greater power or the greater power into extra speed as conditions demand. The Six-Speed Special is a handsome, easy-riding truck, ideal for everyday hauling whether roads are good or load. The same easy engine speed gives you 35 miles an hour for good roads or 32 miles an hour for the tough places. That is ten times as much power. lT'S ALL IN THE TWO-RANGE AXLE. In every feature and detail the new Six-Speed Special measures up to a high standard. It has a heavy frame, long flexible springs, sturdy construction throughout. Comfortable fully enclosed cab, easy steering. an unusual degree of driver-comfort. International Harvester Co. of America Sales, Show Room and Service Station 23 Sixth Street S.
