FOREWORD ln an effort to give you a complete and true picture of Moline l-ligh School, We have gathered all the indi- vidual pieces and mixed them together as a scientist mixes a formula. We have taken the instructors, each one of the students, scholar or loafer, the clubs, the dramatic productions, the teams and their productions, the games. To these essentials of every school We have added the special eccentricities of Moline high-the little differences which malce this school Qur School. Carefully measuring and mixing We have produced this book as the tabulation of our results. We sincerely hope that our conclusion checks with your idea of Moline high. Editor and Staff L 1

MR. CRAKES is the para- gon among all high school principals. With an unruf- fled mien he keeps a watch- ful eye over each one of his l2OO individually. Not con- tent with this full time job, he also figures prominently in many civic organizations. lf ever a student of any high school desired to pick a model for his life in future years Mr. Crakes would act admirably as a ready made pattern. CO9 MR. LAlN continues to turn out smashingly success- ful Senior plays, champion, ship golf teams, competent film operators, and good radio programs as well as pinch hit for busy Mr. Crakes. From his swivel chair in ll6, he directs his charges with what seems to be a minimum of effort though we know it isn't really so. lncomplete this article would be if there were not some mention made of Miss Lain, as well known around school as many of the better known Seniors. MB. NUTTING is as well known now for his after din- ner speeches and impromptu poetry as he ever was in his more active days at high school. An amazing memory is among one of his achieve- ments which endears him to the student body, for he has a remarkable faculty for re- membering students' names and speaking to them in the halls in his too infrequent trips to high school. 000 L 4
