Since Latin is recognized as one of the most important subjects as well as one of the most difficult to master, it was thought fit- ting to acknowledge ability along this line in some material form. The basis of award is de- termined by considering the first year's aver- age as one unit, the third as one, the fourth year one, and the grade received in a comprehensive examination as the fourth unit. This test, prepared each year by the Latin Department of some neighboring College, was given last year by Augustana College. This year Professor Drew of Knox College kindly con- sented to furnish the questions. On April 10, the entire Virgil class assembled in Miss Warnerls room to take the test in an effort to secure the coveted medal. Further inducement was offered them in the fact that this examination could be substituted for the final semester examination, thus relieving the class of future worry about Latin finals. The pro- ceeds from last yearfs Latin plays were used to establish a fund, the interest of which purchases the medal which is awarded on Class Day each year along with the spoons of jocularity and popularity. Miss Garstls work has been of uni- form excellence throughout the four years. She is to be congratulated on her enviable record. l'll Remember- NAME Forty-fozm' MESSAGE 'Deke PH Remember- NAME H REMARKS Forty-fiv 'QTEQ 5 Q 4 Q2 ai'-'-ns ' 'z:S 1- ' Q ' as X2 Tales of the Twentyftwds Books and the Class l sing, which Hrst from the school, Central Grammar, Driven by fate, into M.

For soon these strange little green creatures had organized a kingdom with Norma Briley reigns ing queen and many lords and ladies. Then all the courts were organized and all went very well, for every tiny subject was a true little patriot, and soon this strange new tribe was known as the class of '23. Now all was not so tranquil and calm without Queen Norma's domain. For a great world war of football raged and ever so savagely resounded. Then at the call of the new-found queen, Knight Schmidty set forth to share in the fray for this new, inexperienced race. And soon he returned wearing an Hlllv, an unparalleled honor for one so young. And last-but not least-four balls were given to amuse the little subjects of this very green age. Second Century ........................ With King George A slight decrease in population was observed --just a mere trifle. For every live wire worth while in the class was promptly on hand for duty.

And all were carried off with much vigor and vim, Leaving memories quite priceless to each Uher and him. Fifty-two Third Century ........,Y..,Y..........

And many a time in the combat's fierce fray Our Warriorls brave efforts were what saved the day.

Led by their queen they established their rights To be called the world's champions, by crushing all foes With the greatest of ease, as everyone knows. A brave knight debater with a heavy bass voice, Went to roar like a lion in the field of his choice. Then forth he did go, and roar he did so, That all of his auditors' faces did glow. There were also stump speakers. and a Udeckerl' or two, fFor the twenty-three class, tho' that's noth- ing newj.

Fifty-seven 'jake -E V22 5'-as ' S P ' ' :fi g 23 A X History of the Q4 Regiment As we stand on the field of battle awaiting the bugle call to action, we think over the events of the time that has passed. It is now two years since our regiment, three hundred strong, was first called to the colors. We had received some military training at the Central Grammar Training Camp, but in spite of this we were sadly inexperienced in actual warfare. However, in the first battle we fought bravely side by side with the older veterans of the Zd, 3d and 4th Battalions, led by our brave officers, Captain William Schnathorst, Alice Driggs, Catherine White, and Hazel Bixler. Aft- er a furious charge, we defeated a formidable army of conjugations, participles, and equations, and stormed the two great fortresses, Algebra and English. In this memorable battle we cap- tured many prisoners, including a large number of credits, class honors and four successful class parties. So well did our little contingent fight that many were recommended for promotion, and Private Lester Weinrott was decorated for bravery in the literary field. Private Mary Baum was also honored, having defeated a regi- ment of several hundred words which had van- quished all others who had ventured to attack them. After a suspension of hostilities for two months We were again called into service. Now, however, Fifty-eight instead of the inexperienced raw recruits we had formerly been, we took our places as well trained, efficient soldiers and no longer looked up to the older veterans. It was necessary to get leaders for our regiment, so without delay we again commissioned William Schnathorst commander- in-chief, and for his assistant officers, Naomi jackson, Harry Peterson and Ruth Lindsay. Now after these preparations, we again found ourselves in the field and ready for another bat- tle. Confronting us was a large army, the ene- my's ranks having been swollen by reinforce- ments. Suddenly the bugle was sounded and, with colors flying, we started on the second great charge. Soon we found ourselves again in the midst of the fray, assailed on all sides by hard work. But there was no weakening in the ranks of our resolute soldiers, who again distinguished themselves, Lester Weinrott. William Schnat- horst, and Kilbourne johnson winning honors in literary combat. Far off in the distance beyond the forts still held by the enemy, we can see the great Fortress of Knowledge: and as we battle onward, carry- ing all before us, we are all determined to reach this goal at the end of two more years.

Yet if you had seen the expression on the faces of those upper classmen when we, the class of '25, first entered high school, you would have had your doubts. They seemed to say Nye are the dust beneath our feetfl However, we refused to be awed, and when the older students realized that we were here to stay, they decided to forget us as much as possible and to tolerate when they could not forget. We have not been here long enough to make much of an impression on the school. A few of our men have made good in athletics. Leo Carl- son and Mark Marsell represented us on the grid- iron, Carlson making first team and Marsell the second. Carlson and Glen Peterson played on the second basketball team and we have no doubt that they will make the first team next year. Sixty-two In music our class can justly claim distinction. It has contributed most of the members of the orchestra and an unusually high percentage of the members of the Glee Club. VVallace M. johnson and Arnold Clair in particular have at- tracted the attention not only of the school but of the community by their excellent work in piano and violin work. Heaven is not reached at a single bound, neither can a freshman realize the heights of his ambition in a single year. But we are building the ladder by which we climb. Each day marks a step upward, for we are training and devel- oping minds where great things may be born. When another year rolls by, the class of 725 will have a longer story to unfold, a story of achieve- ment and promise. EARL RONK.

H. S., in other words, the Board Rooms and Cafeteria, they are infrequently seen or heard and yet they are the driving power behind the entire Moline system of higher education. They have in their hands jurisdiction over everything concerning M. H. S.. from prunes to diplomas. although their influence is of a type felt rather than heard. .WILSON P. HUNT, M. H. S., '89. Mr. Hunt became a member of the Board of Education in 1912, but it was not until 1916 that he was elected to Hll the office of president, to which office he has been re-elected every year since. During the six years that he has wielded the hbig stick in the Board of Education Mr. Hunt has probably worked more and slept less than any previous president of that organization. Whenever an undertaking has appeared impos- sible eithei' through lack of funds or because of impracticable plans for its furtherance it has been through the ingenuity and untiring efforts of Mr. Hunt that the best of the idea has been brought out and made possible. His interest in all phases of our high school work has been particularly keen. We hope to receive our di- plomas at his hands. L, A. MAHONEY, A. B. Leaving his position as Superintendent of Schools at Rochelle, Illinois, Mr. Mahoney in '16 came to Moline to assume a like position here. Especially interested in athletics. he has probably done more for M. H. S. in that connec- tion than any of his predecessors, and has also encouraged the establishment of adequately equipped gymnasiums in all of the grade schools in the city. His activities in civic life have been very valuable to the community. His trip to Europe, taken during the summer of '21 while president of the Rotary Club furnished material for one of the seasonfs most interesting talks before the Senior Fellowship Club. where he is always a favorite speaker. His is a many-sided position calling for great versatility, tact and ability. Without him the machinery of our school system would soon wreck itself. RITA KXOWLES, M. H. S., 707 Napoleon thought in worlds, Cecil Rhodes in continents and, we may add, Miss Knowles thinks in checks. ln other words, she is the one indubitable financial expert of the Board of Education. Entering the school system as sten- ographer, she has since 1913 served as Secretary of the Board. and has the handling of all bills, supplies, and insurance, to say nothing of the thousand and one other matters demanding her attention, not least among which is the prepara- tion and signing of the facultyfs pay checks. Last among her duties and highly important in our eyes at least is that of preparing and adding her signature to the final document of approval ten- dered each departing senior-the diploma. AS- suredly she is a person of interest! . ALTA S. PIERCE, M. H. '11, lf variety is the spice of life, Miss Pierce Vol- unteers the information that hers is decidedly gingery-but by no means a snap. Since May 713 when she left Deere and Company to join the staff of the Board of Education, life has held fifty-seven varieties of education and work for her. We probably know her best as the one who sells us tat costj the texts which have played so important a part in our education. As clerk to both Mr. Mahoney and the Board, it is obvious that Miss Pierce has her hands full most of the time. Without her the five would be de- cidedly incomplete. CLARA E. WECKEL We can tivo without poetry, music and books But civilized man cannot tive without cooks. The students without doubt. consider Miss Clara Weckel the most indispensable of indispen- sables. Miss Xx eckel has been with us for seven years and during this time she has hardly thought of anything but the cafeteria and food. She even dreams of food. Miss Weckel is a food expert. Much of her time has been spent studying the elements of foods and their com- pounds. She scientifically calculates the num- ber of calories in everything served. For two summers she has studied at Columbia University, New York. Because of her the cafeteria has be- come our pride and the envy of visitors from other cities. It has been used for all sorts of meetings where refreshments of any kind were needed. Six generations of After Dinner Club and Fellowship Club members have sat about its tables at their monthly meetings, athletic and literary banquets too numerous to mention have been served there. teachers have frolicked there at their annual Christmas parties, and its walls have echoed to the learned discourses of the speakers of the University Club. All these organizations unite in the strongest terms of praise for the genial, tactful and efficient man- ager of our Cafeteria, Miss Clara Weckel.

The team, after days of hard drilling and sweltering in the hot sun, was given a chance to show the results of hard prac- tice. Kewanee furnished the material for the experiment. Moline hit their line and went around their ends for a total of 40 points before the visitors tot- tered off the field, dazed by the fast pace. and scoreless. October 1 spelled disaster for Peoria. Moline was determined to beat the team which so badly beat us the year before. After four minutes of playing, Shorty Simpsonls toe put three points on the book for Moline with a beautiful drop kick. Captain Schmidt plunged through for the other six points of the game. Moline re- turned victoriousf9 to O. Ottawa. with colors flying, invaded Moline on the eighth day of October. Ottawa looked like a winning team the hrst few minutes of play, but Moline soon got the scoring machine work- ing and ran up a total of 56 points while Ottawa had to be content with the initial on their sweaters. Galesburg was a hard team to beat, but they were not in line to win on the 22nd day of October. They came and saw, but were con- quered. Moline made a touchdown and Toline kicked goal, which made the score 7 to O. One week later, October 29, the team jour- neyed to LaSalle where it took into camp the eleven from that city. It was a fast and excit- ing game, for Moline got seven points in the first quarter, three in the second by means of Shortys educated toe, and seven points in the third quarter. LaSalle managed to get a touch- down in the second and another in the third quarter. November 5 was a big day in the cities of Moline and Rock Island, for that was the date set for the annual clash. Both were confident of winning, both had good teams, but one had to lose. Moline played the bet- ter game and Rock Island was r obliged to be content with the short end of a score of 9 to O. lt is doubtful if a more thrilling contest has ever been put up by the two schools. Certainly they have never before met in a game marked by such consist- ent and high-grade playing. Champaign was the next foe, and all sport critics agreed be- fore the game that Moline would lose because Champaign had lost but two games in ive years. Axene was the hero of the battle, scoring the only t-- A'- touchdown of the game by blocking a kick and recovering the ball himself. This victory gave Moline hopes for a claim on the state championship. November 24th-Thanksgiving day--Moline- Davenport game-at Davenport-and Moline a sure winner-this was the dope for the annual battle between the two schools. It was a score- less game until with three minutes to play Mo- line tried a forward pass to the left wing. Dav- enport intercepted, and-Oh, let's not dwell on it. The touchdown was made, score, Davenport 6, Moline O. Desperate and brilliant playing by Moline then put the ball on Davenportys five- yard line for first down, but the referee didnit see it, and we were forced to watch the pigskin sail back to midfield, too late for further hopes of victory. . Wait till next fall! Taken by and large the football season of 1921 was one of the very best in the history of the Moline High School. Frequent comment has been made on the line spirit of the team and its sportsrnanlike conduct at all times, and also in the splendid support given by the public and by the whole student body. Coach Senneff and Manager Holmgren were largely responsible for bringing about this condition of affairs, but the work of one other person should not be over- looked-our cheer leader, Adolph Canter, who proved himself one of the most efficient devel- opers of fine spirit in the history of the school.

He was in every play, equally strong in offense and defense. His line plunging and forward passing were features of every game in which he played, and his hard, sure tackling was dreaded by opponents attempting to carry the ball. His re-election to the cap- taincy for next season was an honor as well deserved as it is unusual.

His short pushes through center for needed yardage were a constant source of surprise X to opponents. It did not seem possible that so small a frame could carry so powerful , a Hkickw. His ability in drop-kicking was a great asset to the team more than once during the season, and his tackling as safety man was unerring. CARLSON-Hzzlfback. It is seldom that a freshman, especially a small one earns a regular berth on the team, but Leo did this early in the season. Speedy, and shifty on his feet, he eluded the grasping arms of would-be tacklers with e disconc rting ease. Rough handling, that his small stature constantly in- vited, only made him harder to stop. He has a bright future on the grid- iron. Seventy TOLINE-Halfback. Dick earned the title of Hlron Man by playing every minute of every game last season. He very seldom failed to gain when called upon for yardage, as his plunging, twisting form of running made him a hard man to stop. Especially noteworthy was his accuracy in goal kicking. He never failed to put the ball over when the point was needed. Next year should be his best. Vjfne 5 Q V22 A A 2 X r' XJ K ff HE1nERHsHa1f1wk.

Se veil fy-three 9 Se've1z,ty-four j'F.te QQ V A A C Cui' Trophies For a school that has held a very prominent place in all branches of athletics for three de- cades Moline High School has an extremely meagre collection of trophies. Our football teams have been held in great respect by oppo- nents all over Illinois and over a considerable portion of Iowa ever since the sport was intro- duced into the high schools. In the early days, before the formation of the Cook County league, and before the tri-city games became such great drawing cards, Moline used to bring the best of the Chicago high schools here for the Thanks- giving Day struggle. Moline invariably won these contests, though often by a narrow mar- gin. One or two time-worn banners remain to mark these contests that were memorable events to the generation to which belong Harry Hun- toon, Henry Bergert and Drs. Bennett, Sloan and Wessel. In 1906 began the series of Thanksgiv- ing Day games with Davenport and for a long period of years Moline victories were as much a matter of course as Davenport victories have been been in the last decade. But there was no loving cup or other trophy for the winner during those years. Consequently we have no visible evidence of our prowess on the gridiron in those days, while Davenportls victories are duly attest- ed by the big Abraham cup that adorns the halls of the school across the river. In 1907 Rockford was loudly claiming state honors, but was induced to play a post-season game with the undefeated Moline team. The 23 to O victory that the crippled Maroon and White team won from the chesty Northmen on the snow-covered field that memorable day gave us an undisputed State Championship. No trophy is awarded by the State Athletic Associa- tion in football, because there is no state-wide organization in that branch of athletics, but en- thusiastic local supporters of the team presented a suitable banner commemorating the teamls fine record for the year. A series of three games about 1910-13 with Urbana, at that time the strongest team in the southern part of the state, resulted in three hard-won victories for Moline, but this achieve- ment lives only in the recollection of the UBIH men who were on the teams those years. Three games with Springfield, another strong down- state team, resulted the same way-three straight victories but no trophy. In track Moline was badly handicapped by lack of any track for practice or for local meets, until the construction a few years ago of the track on Browning Field. But the Maroon and White colors nevertheless have been worn by many, a place-winner in meets at Champaign, Iowa City, Evanston, Chicago, Keokuk and Galesburg. Prior to the forming of the Big Eight Conference in 1909 these same eight schools and as many smaller ones had an organization called the Military Tract League which held a track meet and a number of literary contests the first Saturday in May each year, the meet rotating among those cities of the league which had suit- able fields for the meet. In 1909 our well-bal- anced team journeyed to Macomb where the meet for that year was held, and on a muddy track in a drizzle of rain mixed with snow won the coveted Military Tract championship ban- ner. In the Big Eight meets we have ranked well up toward the top many times but have not succeeded in taking better than second place. Basketball may properly be called a recent sport in the Moline High School, for until the Manual Arts Building was put up in 1909 there was no practice floor in the city, and until the Y. M. C. A. was built there was no floor on which home games could be played. But since, our present building was erected in 1915 with its spacious gym the Maroon and White has been very much on the basket ball map, winning three district championships and as many shields which are perhaps our most imposing trophies. In non-athletic fields Moline has won distinc- tion, but only one trophy. That came to us as a victory over Rock Island in a newspaper con- test in 1914-17. The Dispatch and Argus put up a silver loving cup and arranged for the students of the two high schools to take entire charge of all local news in their respective city papers on a certain day in October. The issues thus put out were submitted to editors of prominent papers in Illinois and Iowa whose vote determined the winner. Moline won two of the three contests and secured permanent possession of the cup. Cups and banners have been won by various classes in inter-class competition in track, swim- ming and war activities, but they do not come properly within the scope of this article.

Captain Heider, Toline, Simp- son, Mahoney and Schmidt were letter men, while about 75 other hopefuls responded. Prac- tice started and so did cuts of this large squad. The final survivors of the process numbered fif- teen. On December 17, the team was first seen by the public in action, and action it was for Moline emerged on top with a score of 25 to 19 after a gruelling forty-minute contest and a five-minute overtime period. Cambridge was the victim. On New Yearfs Eve the team from Froebel High School of Gary, Indiana, champions of their state, dropped off at Moline for a practice game, in their tour of the Mississippi Valley. The first half ended U4-allw, but in the second half Moline showed the Hoosiers no mercy, and made the final count 21 to 10. Next in order to bow in defeat to Moline was the five from LaSalle. The boys from the HBig Benn town put up a good battle, but lost by the close score of 13-9. On Friday, the thirteenth of january, Moline journeyed to Galesburg and experienced her usual luck when playing in that city. In the early part of the session Moline's offense was extremely weak, and the fast Galesburg quintet won by a score of 17-9. The following night Moline seemed to be still unable to get into effective action, with the result that the powerful team from Peoria ran up a score of 24-7 against us. The Tractors were the classiest team that Moline encountered the entire season. but no such score could have been regis- tered against us later in the season. A week later the third consecutive defeat was marked down against Moline, when our team was defeated by Davenport on their home floor. The score was 18-7. January 27 will be a memorable date, for the team defeated Rock Island in a very exciting overtime game at Augie Gym by a score of 14-9. Moline's next foe was again Davenport who defeated us by a score of 15-11. It was a close, exciting game but Krasuski's shots from the upper zone could not be stopped. Dick Toline received a broken nose in this fracas which kept him out of the game the week following. On February 10 Moline journeyed to Cam- bridge via automobile. The trip and scenery both coming and going were wonderful but the boys on their return could recall few details of the game. It was later learned that the score was 34-10-Let us pass on! The following night Moline met and defeated the strong aggregation from Wyoming, Illinois. This team had made a strong showing against such teams as Peoria, but they were not in-Mo- linels class that night. The score was 19-13 in our favor. The tri-city games this year seemed to come in a group. Rock Island was our next opponent and again was trimmed by a 13-11 game. It was a happy crowd of Moliners that left our gym that night. Confident from their defeat of Moline earlier in the season, Galesburg's speedy five took the Hoor the following week but this time they were dazzled by the speed of Captain Heideris crew. and were sent home with the short end of a 34-15 score. These late successes gave Moline high hopes of winning the District Tournament the follow- ing week at Augustana Gym. Her chief rivals were Geneseo and Rock Island, and it was fated that these teams should fight it out against each other in the first round. We drew Manlius for an easy victory, 30-11. East Moline then fell, 39-10. Then the most important game of the tourney, that with Rock Island, was played on Saturday morning. It was a battle royal, and R. I. fell for the third time of the season at the hands of Moline, by the score of 27-19. That evening after a curtain raiser between Rock Island and Atkinson, Annawan dropped the final game to Moline with figures reading 46-10, leav- ing Moline District Champ. At the sectional tournament held at Peoria. Moline was defeated 15-11 by the Macomb Academy, which put us out of the running for state honors. It was a successful season, but letls do even better next year. The outlook is especially good since our second team made a clean sweep of all their games for the season, and its members will all be back.

The teams were more even- ly matched than usual. and the games more closely contested, as shown by the fact that there were three games with a one point margin at the finish. The Seniors won the championship. not losing a game. and winning the title by defeating the Sophomores in a verx' fast tive-minute overtime game. i The four teams were about equally formidable. Tn the opening round the Seniors won from the juniors by a single point in a score of 15 to 14, and the same day the Freshmen vanquished the Sophomores 15 to 14. Each game was settled in the last minute of play, First shooting the deciding basket for the Seniors. and Peters for the Freshmen. Eigflzy The next day the Seniors defeated the Fresh- men and the Sophomores triumphed over the juniors. thus putting the '23's in fourth place. In the semi-finals the Sophs aveiiged their Iirst defeat and trimmed the Freshmen in a hard- fought game. thereby getting into the nnals. The linals which ended in the victory for the Seniors. with the score 23 to 22. brought forth volleys of cheers from the spectators. At, no time during the entire game did the scoreboard show a difference of more than three points in the score. and neither team was able to hold the lead more than a few minutes. The Seniors as a team played a fine defensive game, but depended for their baskets on First. who made 19 of Z3 points for his team. while the whole Sophomore team worked like an elli- cient machine on both offense and defense. Such men as Coryell, Baas, Hodgdon and Hanson make things look bright for varsity basketball next season.

Moline had a small nucleus of letter men from the previous season and a large number of hard-working recruits with which to try conclu- sions with her old-time rivals. It was a nip and tuck struggle. settled only by the last event. Dax enport's use oi Schick and Layden, two nine- semester men, who together secured thirteen points. enabled her to nose out Moline for the silver cup by a score of 3725 to 30. Rock Island secured 2426 points and East Moline 3. First places were won for Moline by P. Lund- berg in the running high jump, M. Schmidt in the shot put, R. Dennhardt in the pole vault, Poston in the quarter, and M. Ford in the mile. The first outdoor meet was the Big Eight, held at Browning Field May 7, Moline was a close contender in practically every event of the day, but in most oi them failed by the narrowest margin to place. As a result our score was but six points, which did not at all represent the strength of our well balanced team. M. Ford in the mile and M. Schmidt in the shotput won second in their events and were the only Mo- liners to score. Galesburg won the meet with 38143 points. and through the work of Hill in the pole vault set a new Big Eight record of 10 Eighty-'fozn' ft. 8 inches. Next in order came Rock Island with 2415, Canton with 17, Monmouth, 13l,fg. Kewanee 131ffg, Geneseo 615, Moline 6, Prince- ton IQQ and Davenport 0. The Quad-City Outdoor meet at Browning Field was probably the most closely contested ever held in the Tri-Cities. The result was in doubt right up to the final events which finally hxed the score as follows: Rock Island 49, Mo- line 4522, Davenport 42M, East Moline O. Each of the three big schools took iive hrsts, but Rock Island garnered enough more seconds and thirds to win the meet. Molinels first place winners were R. lngelson in the high hurdles, L. Wind in the low hurdles, H. Poston in the quarter, H. Sederlund in the half, and the mile relay team composed of H. Poston, C. Poston, E. Parsons and H. Sederlund. The season was successful in the interest aroused and in the development of new material. although no meet was won by Capt. Postonls squad. The following won track Mis: H. Pos- ton, C. Poston. P. Lundberg. W. First, M. Schmidt, M. Ford. R. Ingelson. I.. Wind. R. Dennhardt, E. Parsons, W. Davis. Of these letter men all but Schmidt and Parsons were seniors, and consequently unavailable for the '22 season.

This book is devoted to the interests and activities of all the classes. Each staff attempts to make its annual a more complete and more interesting souvenir of the yearls events than those of the preceding classes. The present book was produced at a time of severe business depression which very greatly increased the difficulties of financing an enterprise of this kind. But by diligent and persistent effort the staff has succeeded in putting out a book that we think will compare favor- ably with any of its predecessors. To the excellent supervision of the faculty adviser, Miss Ella M. Cockrell, much of our success is due. THE STAFF.

A 2 4- i l l l r I The Literary Association For several years there had been a growing conviction that all literary activities should be brought under one governing body, with a pool- ing of receipts, as is the case with the various forms of athletic activity. This idea finally ma- terialized late in the spring of 1921 in the for- mation of the Moline High School Literary Asso- ciation. Students and faculty members who were interested in lines of literary endeavor got together and drew up a constitution and by-laws providing for a Literary Board of Control with class representation and powers similar to those of the Athletic Board of Control. The offices in the new association for this first year were filled by appointment, since there was no time for the routine of nominating and bal- loting. The following were named: President, Lester Weinrott '24, Vice President, Josephine Garst '22, Secretary and Treasurer, Norah Al- sterlund '23, Student Manager, Alfred Swanson '23g Board of Control Members, Evelyn From- mader '22, Wilma Blatterman '22, Wallace An- derson '23, Arvid Allen '24, Georgina White '24, Gladys Day '25, and Teddy Smith '25, Faculty Board of Control Members, Miss Cockrell, Miss Wead and Miss Bardens. Season Tickets admitting to all contests and covering a semester's subscription to the Line O' Type were issued each semester at a low price and found a ready sale. As a result attendance at all contests has been good and plenty of money has been realized to finance all this year's Line O' Type. One pleasing feature of the program of events provided for ticket holders of the Literary Asso- ciation was a playlet put on in the fall by the public speaking department, entitled Ujoint Owners in Spain, a one act sketch portraying life in an Old Ladies' Home. Josephine Garst '22 as Mrs. Blair, a strong-willed old lady and Lorraine Ossian '24, an old lady of lachrymose tendencies were the chief performers, and did very effective work, as did Carol Cleaver '22, the matron of the institution, and Helen Love- joy, '22 another old lady, in their respective parts. Following the performance in the after- noon the audience enjoyed an hour of dancing in the gymnasium. Eighty-nine F1 'Zi -as l Boys' Declamation Lester Weinrott with a cutting from Penrod, The Fall of Georgie Bassett , won the Boys' Local Declamation contest, December 1, 1921.

Rock Island won at Rock Island and Moline at Moline. The total score, however, was Rock Island 63, Moline 64, giving the contest to Rock Island by one lone point. Our Big Eight representative, Lester Wein- rott. took second place in the contest held at Davenport. Lewis Carroll, Davenport's speaker, was given first place. Third place was won by Louis Eichorn of Geneseo. All of this year's contestants except one wiil be ready to enter the fray again next fall. With so many experienced men returning, the pros- pects for next year are unusually promising. Big Eight Extempore Contest, 1922 Ever since the adoption of extemporaneous speaking as a Big Eight literary event in 1915 Moline has made an enviable record in this line of forensics, which gives perhaps the most valu- able kind of training of all the forms of public speaking. In the six contests up to 1921 Moline has failed to place but once-in 1917. Our winners of first place have been Cyrus Churchill in 1920. Barbara Garst in 1918 and Leslie Maxson in 19153 second place was won by Lewis Mahoney in 1918g and third place by Goldie Weinrott in 1916. Ninety VVith this record behind us and with the Big Eight Contest for 1921 on our own lloor. our contestant, Lester Weinrott '24, rose to the oc- casion in wonderful style with a speech on the 'ilsland of Yap and won the decision with three ICITSIS from the three judges--a record seldom made in any Big Eight Contest. Another Big Eight record was established at the same time by our contestant, in that he was the hrst stu- dent to win two Big Eight medals in his fresh- man year. 'ijafie 5 L A Ti -Z ' -'-its-'Q Girls' Declamation The Girls, Local Declamation Contest was held on the evening of February 1 in the Moline High School auditorium.

Judges in this contest were Miss - - - - - The Lost Word. Twin-City Dorothea Bell, Carol Cleaver, and Elizabeth White represented Moline in the Twin-City con- test held in Rock Island on the afternoon of February 3, and Josephine Garst, Mary Baum, and Olive Hessler met three Rock Island rep- resentatives on the Moline floor in the evening. Moline lost to Rock Island by a score of 30 to respectively. The other three places went to Olive Hessler, Carol Cleaver, and Elizabeth White. Try-outs for declamation brought out more aspirants this year than formerly and the contest was exceptionally close. The contestants and their selections follow in the order of presentation: - - 'The Thin Santa Clausf' - - - f'Little Miss Useless. -------UJane.

Blanche Williams and Anna Katz of Rock Island and Dorothea Bell of Moline were awarded the first three places in the after- noon and in the evening, Josephine Garst and Mary Baum of Moline and Malbina Totten of Rock Island took the first three places. N inety-one X Q 2 i f E 1 S E IVim'iy-Iwo 'fffne Zi E . Q I j Debate The subject under discussion in the Tri-City debates, which were held Friday, March 17, was this: Resolved, That the city manager form of government is the most desirable for all Amer- ican cities. Moline's affirmative team met their ancient rivals, Rock Island, there in the after- noon and lost a hard-fought contest by a 3 to O decision. Prof. A. F. Schersten of Augustana College, Mr. Parmelee Peterson and Mr. Harold Thuenen, both of Davenport, were the judges in this contest. That evening, Davenportls affirmative team met Moline's negative team in an even closer struggle on the Moline floor. The judges, Mr. Huston, school superintendent of Henry County, Mr. Justin Washburn, school superintendent of Rock Island County, and Judge R. W. Olmstedt of Rock Island, gave Davenport a Z to 1 deci- sion. Davenport also won at home in a contest with Rock Island's affirmative team, again by a decision of Z to 1. This sent Davenport to the Big Eight final contest with Geneseo and Mon- mouth as opponents a week later. Davenport returned from the Big Eight contest with the championship shield, having won unanimously over both opponents. Molinels teams were as follows: AFFIRMATIVE Frank Otis, Captain Margaret Beckwith Donald Long Alternate-Herman Ziffrin. NEGATIVE Virgil Wildermuth, Captain Irene Holt Lester Weinrott' Alternate-William Schnathorst. Coach-Miss Geneva McKeag PERCENTAGE RATINGS Negative, Moline 90 SIM3 85 1 Affirmative, Davenport 85 8Z1f3 87 Z Affirmative, Moline 80 85 84 0 Negative, Rock Island 88 88 87 3 These debates started under the auspices of Knox College in 1910. During these years Dav- enport has won all but two of the Tri-City con- tests and a majority of the Big Eight clashes. Last year Rock Island was the lucky winner in the Tri-City and in 1915 Moline won in the local and took the championship of the Big Eight -unfortunately before the awarding of the Big Eight shield became a custom. Our coach, Miss Geneva McKeag, had experi- ence in debating at Augustana College under Miss Iva Pearce. Later she studied public speaking and debate at Columbia School of Ex- pression, Chicago. Virgil Wildermuth and Lester Weinrott, to- gether with the alternates, will form a strong nucleus for the work next year. This year's ex- perience and a more extensive schedule of prac- tice debates next fall should enable Moline to annex the debate trophy., Wearers of the Literary M Declama- tion Debate Extempore Lester Weinrott ...... 2 2 1 Marg.

The program was thrilling from the first mo- ment, as all good programs are, and the interest of the audience continued and increased till the climax in the final chorus. The opening feature took the form of an in- genious little play entitled, ffDixie Hotel. Harry Axene, with his Swedish impersonation of Ole Olson, played the Hstellar role'7 and was the cause of much laughter throughout the perform- N iozety-six ance. Phil Mahoney made an ideal hotel pro- prietor, while Ed Parsons and Warren First set the audience to Mrockingll by their witty sayings.

The reason for this was not entirely be- cause the boys belonged to the class of 722, but also because they settled down and did some real hdiggingil under the direction of Phil Lioen, their coach and interlocutor. As a result the songs were a big success. The real ahitsf' though, were made by Clement O7Neill who rendered HPeggy O'Neill', with a most professional air, and by Glenn Ford, singing HI Ainlt Givinl Nothinl Awayfl Dewey Harris and Adolph Canter upset the general peace by their clever antics and sweet warblings in Down in Mid- night Town,', and Hllm just Too Mean to Cry, respectively.

Not only was the acting exceptionally fine, but the type of play was entirely different from any heretofore presented. The '22ls revived Carlo Goldoni's masterpiece, HA Curious Mishapf' The exquisite costuming and setting alone were entertaining, and when combined with the hu- morous misunderstandings of the situation, made a well balanced presentation. There was not one dull moment from the first of Gascoigne's whistling and the beginning of the tangle to the Ninety-eiyltt linal pardoning of the wedded lovers. Carol Cleaver tGianninaJ made a sweet and adorable miss Cwe don't blame Milton at allj and through her knowledge of her lover's other passion the didn't know of it himselfl started her father on the wrong track and herself and her lover on a honeymoon trip to France, but they never reached their intended destination, as the fond parent finally relented. Francis Fuller tlfilibertoj with the ever pres- ent snuff box, his Blockheads! , and his knowl- edge of everything, created almost continuous laughter, and even his pathetic sobs on receiving 'ZTFJQ ?

Elleen Grantham as Costanza formed the nec- essary part of the tteternal trianglefl and in spite of the difficulty of the role carried it most charm- ingly. Clement OlNeill made a most realistic father for Costanza, and played the part of Riccardo to perfection.

The first play, HTwo Crooks and a Ladyw met with great success. Doris Hinrichsen as Mrs. Simms-Vane made a much pitied old lady, but in matching her wits against' those of the crooks she easily brought about a quarrel between them, the shooting of one, and their iinal failure. This part required much ability and was very grace- fully handled. William Harry was a charming One h.und'red crook, just the kind that is admired Cthat is, if finally outwittedj, while Evelyn Cox was a bril- liant accomplice.

Team, Team, Teamlfl echoed thiough the gym on the eve of the Seniors? first party this year. A track meet was in progress and each guest was given a little paper banner with the name of his tem- porary school on it. The contestants were Wat- ertown, Coal Valley, Silvis, and Milan and the various schools made themselves heard by shrieking their improvised yells at the tops of their voices. After various athletic events, the Seniors made merry around the refreshment table, and then spent the rest of the evening dancing. At the second party of the year, the seniors thought they were entertaining a very noted, extremely prominent and popular old man, Saint Nicholas himself. When Santa began talking. suspicion crept into the minds of the none too credulous seniors. They had swallowed stories of Columbus and Napoleon and Buffalo Bill without a murmur, but when Santa Claus had a voice like that of Ed Parsons-No, Sir! That was too much. A few of the boldest investigated enough to prove they had grounds for suspicion, but since he had a sack full of interesting toys they decided to wink and let it go at that. After f'Santy'l had passed out all his gifts, there was a shower of balloons from the balcony and those lucky enough to get them were mobbed by an army of expert pin-wielders. When all of these bright-colored beauties had been duly stabbed or otherwise disposed of. a raid was made on the refreshment table. The '22's last party opened with a vaudeville show. Henrietta Haynes as a country laddie with his lassie Cleone Youngren, sang I never Knew I Could Love Anybodyf It was delight- fully effective. The second M. H. S. Triumvi- rate, Harry Lovejoy, Dewey Harris, and Benja- min North aroused the echoes with several rap- turous medolies. Josephine Garst gave a read- ing, USeeing Things and Frances Gottsche gave a charming piano selection. These numbers were followed by a duet, f'Second Hand Rose,'l sung by Edna Sackey and Carlotta Duisdieker. One h'Zl77.d'I'9d four Dancing in the gym followed this droll entertain- ment and the seniors went home happy-after they had eaten all the ice cream sandwiches they could beg, borrow, or steal. 1923 HO wad some Power the giftie gie us To see oursels as ithers see usff This gift was given the juniors at their second party. Altho class dues had amounted to the immense sum of ten cents to supply the where- withal for the first party, the juniors started an unheard-of venture when they decided to give a free party. The 'fMirror allowed them to see themselves in the eyes of their friends by means of slides thrown upon a screen. The 'fEvolu- tion of Stylew was especially interesting in the comparison of the dance of 1776 with the pres- ent day jazz dance. Coiffures were illustrated to show the changes that had taken place in the evolution of man. At the next party the basket-ball game be- tween the Coal Valley Miners and the Water- town Nuts was a complete success. The con- testants were attired in a variety of clothing. Touchdowns were frequent and added the spice of excitement to the merriment. Most of the goals were made in a surprising manner by play- ers who dropped the ball through the hoops from the race track. The referee's decisions were fre- quently protested, but the game was finally de- cided amicably to all concerned. When the formality at the beginning of the party had been overcome by the game, the merry-makers turned to dancing for the balance of the evening. 1924 The social season of the 1924 class may well be termed a f4Sophomore Successf' In celebra- tion of the recently acquired Hmaturityu the sounds of the revelry of the first party threat- ened the ceiling of the gym. Since the date was near Hallowe'en it called for some special type of fun. The Sophomores found this in staging a barn dance. The girls attired in gingham jake 6 Q2 E . A A , , X J aprons made suitable partners for the f'overalled members eligible to attend. Corn shocks, pump- kins, and yellow crepe streamers did what little was needed to remind the ardent guests that the night was one for pranks. . At the second party a novel contest was car- ried on throughout the entire evening. Each person was presented with a ribbon badge which he forfeited if he answered ifyesl' or no,if to any question. The person who at the end of the evening had collected the largest number of these badges was adjudged winner. Dancing and a clever play, ffCoo-Coof' com- pleted the jollihcation. St. Patrickis Day gave occasion for a third social conclave. The gym shone forth in a ver- dant hue suitable to commemorate a Freshman gathering. St. Patrick games were played and finally a weary but delighted group of l24is de- parted to sleep until Saturday noon. 1925 ' tfC'n I have th' next-the-thegnext dance? Certainly you must guess that it was the fresh- man making his initial bow to high school so- ciety who stuttered this question. The event was the first freshman party of the year. J7 More than two hundred, a record attendance, were present to celebrate the occasion. After a half hour of entertainment in the auditorium the party adjourned to the gym, which was dec- orated in autumn colors and corn stalks appro- priate to a true Hallowe'en celebration. Later in the evening refreshments in keeping with the event were served to the voracious freshies. Games and dancing were enjoyed until 'flights outw forced the participants to turn homeward. At the mid-year party the '26's who had re- cently arrived from Central Grammar were in- troduced to the mysteries of high school social activities as the guests of the 1925 class. A va riety of 'fget togetherl' games served to ac- quaint the members of the classes with each other and to make an enjoyable evening. On May 5th 'Z5ls and '26's assembled to en- joy a one-act play, HThe Burglar, which was given in the Auditorium. The cast of the play follows: Mrs. john Burton, the hostess ..........

Stream- ers of purple and white suspended from the basketball rings, and gaily' Howered festoons added much to the attractiveness of the decora- tions. During the evening candy. ice cream and wafers were served. After an evening of much fun and merry-making the freshmen parted Htill we meet againf, Glee Club UDO-mi-sol-do was the astonishing melody one heard upon entering the gym at the Glee Club party, given in earlv fall. Perched upon a piano stool was an estimable member of the faculty, essaying a tune. When it had been successfully carried out, two more dignified teachers were seen scampering madly across the gym in an effort to win the prize offered for the race, Both teachers and students were forced to abandon their dignity while the stunts were in progress. The new student orchestra further enlivened the enjoyable dancing which followed. Before the evening was over many had taken scraps of the green and pink decora- tions to be preserved in memory books.

The balloting next day resulted in the choice of Charles Pruessing for President, Mil- ton Hansen for Vice President and Frank Otis for Secretary-Treasurer. Under the leadership of these efficient officers and Mr. Eric Anderson. whom they chose as faculty adviser, the 1922 Fellowship has had a successful year in spite of slightly diminished attendance due to the flat pocketbooks of these jobless times. The meetings have been interesting and have Out' 111111111111 rigfffl been featured with music, made possible by the new piano. Some of the 1916 boys who founded the club were present at an early meeting and brought out clearly the ideals and purposes of the Club. The mention of such speakers as Rev. J. M. Stevenson, Prof. Schersten, Rev. R. W. Babcock and Coach Senneff is enough to show the high caliber of the messages brought to the Club at its meetings. The minstrel performance December 30 and 31 under Phil I.ioen's experienced direction was a distinct success in every way. Enough money was realized to cover the expense of a party for the girls of the After Dinner Club. 'UDPBQ F QQ. E f X ' i-1:5 A ' J X X - l Girls, After Dinner Club The Girls' After Dinner Club of 1921-1922 has just completed its hfth and most successful year. The ofhcers for this year were Gail Strong, president, and Henrietta Haynes, treasurer. Un- der the efficient direction of Miss Helen Bardens and with the excellent co-operation of the com- mittees many interesting and novel programs were offered. The purpose of the After-Dinner Club is to give the senior girls an opportunity of becoming acquainted with each other by meeting together in monthly social gatherings. The democratic manner in which committees are chosen and the activities of the club carried on lit the girls for contact with the business world. Every member has a chance during the year to assist in giving an entertainment or otherwise arranging an in- teresting meeting. The chairmen of the commit- tees also have the experience of acting as host- esses and introducing the speakers. The club has been especially favored with good speakers this year. Among these Were Dr. Mabel Otis, Miss Adeline Kerns, Mrs. Clara Cook Helvie, Mrs. P. C. Ladd, Dr. Josephine Schillinger and Miss Carroll Martins. Two special meetings were held this year at one of which the girls entertained their mothers, and at the other the senior girls welcomed the junior girls who will carry on the work of the club next year. HThe Piperis Pay' was chosen as the annual Matinee and was given Thursday, April 13. The success of the performance was due to Miss Grace Wead's coaching. Dancing in the gym- nasium, which is always a popular feature of the affair, followed the Matinee. Instead of the After-Dinner Clubls entertain- ing the Boys' Fellowship and their returning the compliment, as is usually done, one large party, financed by both clubs, was given, and proved to be a most fitting climax to a very successful season for both clubs.

Its work in literary contests. at the Institute. at the junior Plays. at the Baptist Church, at the Y. M. C. A.

It took shape in a series of folk songs and dances of various countries and centered around our own dear homeland, America. Liberty's Holidayl' represents the Goddess of Liberty as exceedingly bored. To entertain her- self, and incidentally the various nations and peoples, she calls a holiday and requests the rep- resentatives of the varions countries to give their folk songs and dances. Each representative tells her something of the customs and merits of his fatherland and then calls in his fellow singers and dancers who give several quaint numbers. Then all come together in a grand linale to pay their last tribute to the Goddess. Miss Heinemann and Mrs. Uno Bradley coached this pageant, while Miss Kronstedt as- sisted with the dances. Geraldine Hepburn and Sara Bennett were the accompanists. THE PROGRAM Goddess of Liberty-Victoria Paul Spain-Representative, Paul Slater. In Fair Seville, Pierne-Girls, Glee Club.

The Club did not aim at large membership this year, or at anything that would put them too much in the lime-light. but to have a comparatively small body of earnest. inlluential students to study and try to improve conditions in the class rooms and around school in general. The Club has had a successful year. During the spring term a series of meetings were spon- sored by the Club in preparation for Easter, which many good out-of-town speakers ad- dressed. One hundred sixteen A junior Hi-Y was also formed later in the year for the boys of the Freshman and Sopho- more classes. which helped to maintain the same standards as those of the Senior Club. The Club had a big Wind-up on April 26, when the Clubs of the three cities met at the local Y and had dinner together. Warren Firstls Or- chestra provided the music, and Dean Nollen of Grinnell College gave a most interesting talk. The officers who piloted the club successfully through the year were: Warren First. presi- dentg Ed Gordon, vice presidentg Lyle Phillips, Secretaryg Irving Dornacher, treasurer: Mr. Chaffee, school adviser and Mr. Van Patten, Y adviser. ,Z 1:1v M IQZVIEIEQEH-S' Kidd w 1 g One hyzfvrdred eigh fcvn 'Uofne 4 , Q Q QQ 5-ini 5 A -sa.: -.ef ' L A S2 J justin Laugman: How many subjects are you carrying?

In sentiment the trade-mark is as a proud family name that must be kept free from debasement. It is an emblem of excellence in the years gone by-an heritage from a glorious past that must be passed on, its signifi- cance ever growing, to a still more glorious future. In a strict business sense, the trade-mark is a badge of quality that attracts purchasers and that must be rigidly upheld in order to keep the confidence of the buying public. To debase a single article bearing the john Deere trade-mark would be to weaken the confidence of the buy- ing public in the entire line of john Deere tools. It would be commercial suicide. We are justly proud of the great institution that has grown up back of the John Deere trade-mark. Our aim is to promote this greatness of the House of Deere. We know that the accomplishment of our aim depends entirely upon the continued significance to the public of the familiar emblem that is stamped on all john Deere tools.
