She also directs the activities of the Literary Board ot Control as Well as being faculty business manager of the lunior and Senior plays. Mr. Lain serves as faculty adviser ot the M after he has completed mul- tiple other tasks. The Senior play lt Never Rains is the most vivid example ot his amazing versatility. , alma l rquaciaiian lim Nordquist Arlene lohnson Kate Lundeen Bob Knees, Evelyn Anderson, Paul Allmendinger, Arlene Linnberg, lim lohnston The Literary Association is one administrative body which truly gives stu- dents a chance to direct their own altairs. The decisions of this board decide the literary course of the year. This year's activities, led by Arlene lohnson as president, included an- other matinee dance, which again proved popular. Katherine Lundeen served as secretary ot the board along with lim Nordquist, who was elected vice- president. Members ot the board, two of whom are elected from each class, were as follows: Arlene Linnberg and Paul Allmendinger, Seniors, Bob Knees and loan Byers, Iuniorsg lim lohnston and Evelyn Anderson, Sophomores. The Association also selected the three leaders of the Line Of Type statt and sponsored a Literary Banquet for the members of the L.O.T. and M stalls plus all ot those who took part in forensic activities.

One of the im- portant features was getting every issue out on Monday. The staff sponsored the L.O.T. con- test, and Guffy was elected in a very close race. Every issue of the L.O.T. featured such col- umns as t'Dump lt Here, the ever-present gossip column, and Central Chatter. The staff also got out the first issue of Tourney News. This was ct daily paper printed with up-to-the- minute news of the Sectional Tournament. With almost the entire staff returning next year, our school should have one of the best papers in the state. .L'. 0. 1 King I ,N 'N Q Q JT EDSEL GUSTAPSCDN Captain ot the All-State toot- ball sauaa and Center on the All - Tournament basketball n, l'Gutty was also Voted the most popular boy in high school.

To select the team, tryouts were held. The girls chosen were: Arlene lohnson, Halcyon Deljraties, Lucille Shawgo, Bettelou Peterson, Ethel Coleman, Cicely Getz, Louis Dun- can, Betty Holtz, Elaine Abrahamson, and Cleo Main. ln the triangular contest, which is an annual event, the girls competed with the Rock Island and East Moline teams. Two Rock Island girls tied for tirst and Arlene lohnson was given third. Consequently, Moline won sec- ond place in this contest. Other meets were held with Gerieseo and Davenport. ln the Northwest Conference Declarriatory Contest, we were represented for the second consecutive year by Ar- lene lohnson who triumphed again by winning first. This victory was especially notable because of the exception- ally high rating she received. Of the tive votes which Miss lohnson received, four ot them gave her first place and the other second. This was an unusually high rating. Introduced this year was the idea ot having the girls give their selections before various community organiza- tions and clubs. This gave the girls a chance to display their talent to people not connected with school life and also served to interest the people of the community in our school activities. Mains lohnson Shawgo 'rg ,W McCurdy, Sandberg, Engdahl Second on the forensic schedule this year, debate was launched on its rather full career with what must be viewed as a somewhat inexperienced team, only one veteran debater returning. The subject for debate was, Resolved: That the govern- ment own and operate railroads, On the affirmative team were Gene McCurdy, Bill Sandberg, Wallace Loyd, and Philip Engdahl. The negative team was composed of Rob- ert Carlson, Lawrence Conway, and Robert Coddington. Among the more important meets in which Moline par- ticipated was the annual high school debate tournament conducted by Augustana College. ln this contest thirty- six schools in this region were represented, Our team won two out of the twelve debates they took part in. Unfortunately, Moline was unsuccessful in defending her championship in the Northwest Conference Debate Tournament. The negative and the affirmative teams par- ticipated in five debates each with Rock Island, Gales- burg, East Moline, Kewanee, and Monmouth teams. Mo- line did not place in the contest. However, almost all of the team is returning next year and being more experi- enced will have a good chance to win back the cham- pionship. ln addition to these tournaments, the team varied their activity by participating in a discussion tournament at Iowa City and finally the season concluded with the Dis- trict Tournament of the State Debate League.

A xi l For a considerable while before the actual contests, those people who intend to participate in extemp study various subjects in the American Observer, subjects which usually pertain to government and state problems. Before the actual contest, the speaker draws three subjects, and choosing one of these, retires to a room Where he is se- curely locked in with a pencil, some paper, and his thoughts. There he has an hour to assemble the material he has stored in his mind from previous study. When he is called he must give a seven minute speech on the subject. Those Who went out for extemp this year were Robert Carlson, Lucille Shawgo, james johnson, Eugene Mc- Curdy, Helen johnson, Pat Coleman, Philip Engdahl, Bud Fluent, Mervin Fisher, Duane Benson, Ralph Hellstrom, and Bill Sandberg. ln the local contest, Bob Carlson was given first, While Pat Coleman and Gene McCurdy were second and third respectively. A meet was held with Rock lsland at which Bob Carlson Won third for Moline in the experienced group, While Lucille Shawgo won second in the unex- perienced group. Bob Carlson was chosen to represent Moline at the N.W.C. which was the final competition. Although Rock lsland was given first, Bob tied the Monmouth representa- tive for second, ending the forensic season on a cheer- ful keynote.

Carlson, Byers Approximately 850 frightened people watched the door to Baldpate lnn open with seven different keys at the Iunior class presentation of The Seven Keys to Baldpatef' The shivering audience watched the imaginative mind of William Magee, young author, create a melo- dramatic mystery story to win a bet of 55,000 from a friend. The story itself revolves around a certain sum of money that different characters are trying to gain pos- session of. The young author, thinking his is the only key to Baldpate, is surprised to find six other people who each think they have the only key. When they all get together most amazing things begin to happen, Dead people walk, disappear and appear again, money is lost and claimed by different people. The crowning point comes when the owner of Baldpate arrives and reveals the whole thing as a jest. After all this the audience is again fooled when the epilogue shows the whole play was only the enactment of the author's story. Special mention should be given to Miss Barbara Garst, coach, to Wallace Lloyd as Magee, and Mar- lowe Thompson as Mary Norton, a young newspaper woman. Paul Barnard, as the hermit, and Bettelou Peterson, as Myra Thornhill, starred in the support- ing roles. Seven Keqft lla gums CAST Eliiah Quimby ,...... .......... Mrs. Quimby ...........

Death, portrayed vividly by Robert Coddington, be- comes a mortal for three days in order to learn what life holds for men. Why do men fear death? Why does love play such an important part in the life of man? The desire to know the answer to these questions causes him to become a human, and, as Prince Sirki, pay a three-day visit to the household of Duke Lambert. During his stay he learns that life is harder than death and that the lives of men become fearful while death is nonexistent. As Prince Sirki, Death enjoys his time on earth until suddenly, at the appearance of a lovely young girl, Grazia, he finds himself a victim of love. Grazia's in- nocence and trustfulness in him is his answer to love's part in the life of men. Then, as his holiday nears an end, he reveals his true self to each guest-to find that Grazia alone has no fear of him. Finally, as Death, Prince Sirki takes his leave, Grazia chooses to go with him-against the pleas of her parents, Standing - McClean, Abrahamson, Bjur- strom, Olatson, Bracher, A. lohnson. Seated - l.

With Bill Sandberg and lane Carlson playing the parts ot the young lovers Whose parents wanted to keep them apart, the play brought plenty ot laughs from the audience ot 700. ln sunny California, where it never rains, Bill Rogers, played by Bill Sandberg, and Dorothy Donovan, lane Carlson, meet While they are still in school. The im- petuous Vifilliarn doesn't know whether he would like to get married or be cheerleader. Finally he decides that the only Way that he can gain the lady ot his heart is to elope. However, this is prevented in the final act by the irate parents who convince them that they should wait until they graduate trom school, Excellent supporting roles Were played by Bill Harper and Halcyon Delfraties who played the parts ot Bill's parents. lt seems that Mr. Rogers really believed that California was really the promised land tor he spent all ot his time trying to sell it to others. Arlene lohnson, as the speedy colored maid ol the Rogers, provided most ot the comedy tor the play. Dolph Lain was director and coach oi this play which presented an excellent view of the importance ot iraternities and sororities in college life. .91 Naam Raflnd, I me CAST Bill Rogers. .. .. .. .... . .Bill Sandberg Mrs. Rogers .. .Halcyon Delpraties Mr. Rogers. .. ...Bill Harper Norleen Sears .. .. . .

Hamelin town was infested with rats, big rats, little rats, fat rats, lean rats, every assortment of rats on earth. Then one day a strange-looking man, Wallace Lloyd, comes to the ancient town and bargains to rid the infested city of their burden. After the Piper has com- pleted his part of the contract, the mayor, Edward Barnett, and the corporation refuse to pay him. He therefore pipes a magic tune that mysteriously draws the children of the town after him into the Mystic Mountain-all but the little Lame Boy who cannot walk fast enough to keep up with him. Within the Mystic Mountain, the children are enter- tained by the beautiful Dream Lady, portrayed by Marilyn Dowie, and choruses of dancing toys and airy spirits. Soon the people of Hamelin become repentant and seek consolation, when again the Piper appears. He rebukes them for their greed and then yields to the entreaties of the little Lame Boy and brings the happy children home. The production was coached by Miss lna Dunlap and Miss Barbara Garst.

Part of the production was written by Harlan Ral- ston. The scene of the first act took place in the office of the l-See-Um, You-Tell-Um Television Company. Various solo numbers, dance routines, and choruses made up the first act, with the Basketball Ballet as the star feature. An old fashioned melodrama entitled He Ain't Done Right by Nell, starring Frances Mc- Clean, Bill Sandberg, and Ross Wallace, made up the second act, And last, but by no means least, was a minstrel, a hilarious comedy, bringing to light the lackson Family with Baby Gully, Maw lump and Paw Lind, a human organ, lack Turner and Dick Lind as a ulfriendship Team, and the lovely voice of Doris Sonner.

For twenty years the man with the battered hat, bet- ter known as Coach Bennett, has been guiding Maroon teams to victory. His aide, Boger Potter, teaches our basketball teams the tundamentals and always has the enemy's weaknesses tigured out. Bill Bean, assistant track coach and tootball line coach, plays an important part, especially in turning big Swedes into stone walls. As coach ot the sophomore team, Bill Lane, grinds ott the rough edges and keeps his eye on the tuture gridmen. Mr. Holmgren is the quiet man who arranges all schedules and makes sure that the teams ar- rive at their destination on time. Under his direc- tion is the student board ot control which helps in ticket sales and guards student interests in athletic activities. Olson, Engstrom, Turner 1 ll-B. Ander , . , . I Greko, Court, Harper, G. Knees son D Anderson B Knees ll-Tillberg, Roberts, Thorngren I-Stoelting, Holtz, Owen Last fall, the Moline tennis team had one of its most successful seasons in several years. Ale though they were unsuccessful in dual meets with Rock lsland and East Moline, they managed to finish second in the Northwest conference chase. A squad of eight was picked by Mr. Holmgren and they engaged in an intra-squad tournament. Later the boys lost to Rock lsland 7 to 5, while the girls were beaten by East Moline 6 to l. ln October the squad finished second to the lsland- ers with Betty Holtz, Marlowe Tillberg, and Eu- gene Knees scoring Moline's points. The golf team was unable to win any better than fourth place in the Conference. Howard Bigham, Cliff Wood, Kenneth Pearson, and George Melin were lost on the strange Aledo course. However, Coach Dolf Lain's boys had a bright spot on the season's record when they won a clean-cut victory in a three-way match with Galesburg, Rock lsland, and Davenport. Bigham ,vw Pearson and Melin ennid ancf Golf 2, 2' K 4 Moline 26-Freeport 0 Moline High School opened the 1939 season on September 22nd in typical Maroon fashion by handing the Freeport Pretzels a 26-U drubbing under the lights at Browning Field. Turning on a blasting steam-roller attack, the heavy Moline eleven had their own way throughout the struggle. The Maroons showed a finely balanced outfit with no outstanding players coming into the limelight. The scoring was evenly divided between Bigham, Wessel, and Brasmer, and Thomp- son, with Leech converting two of the extra points. The line showed considerable power with Leech, Wallace, Iensen, lump, and Bedo Wood stopping the Freeport ground attack. The Maroons also made it plain that reserve strength was abundant by playing twelve substitutes who went to town against the crushed Freeporters. Moline 13-Kewanee U Moline's mighty Maroons marked up their second win of the season on Sep- tember 29 by defeating a game Ke- wanee team by the score of 13-U. Sev- eral scoring attacks by the Maroons were stopped in the scoring zone dur- ing the first half and it was late in the third quarter when Leech blocked a punt by Kucukas of Kewanee. This punt, recovered by C. Wood, set the stage for the first touchdown. Leech place-kicked the extra point. Stopping Kewanee after the next kickoff, the Maroons marched 80 yards for the last score. Kewanee was definitely out- gained from scrimmage, gaining only ll yards to a total of l84 for Moline. As a result of this victory, Moline shares the Northwest Conference lead- ership with Rock lsland. 3 Schull Faust Glissman Petrilli Wallace B. Wood 'Z'3i ?'757' ig--nw! N-fy' . EM 3. .. .4 gi ,l,- 'Wx 1 Leech Danielson Gustafson lenson Allen Phelps Moline 20-Monmouth 0 Despite the combined efforts of a stubborn Monmouth aggregation and the sultry summer weather, the Mo- liners came through with their third straight victory of the season. After a first quarter punting duel with no scor- ing, Moline started the fireworks with a march by Wessel, Dodd, and Olson for the first touchdown. After that, Monmouth never seemed to get started again and the Maroons had their own way for the rest of the battle. Olson passed to Brasmer for the second touch- down and also set the scene for a passing attack that left the Monmouth boys bewildered. The passing combin- ation of Olson and Wood worked twice in a row for a total of 55 yards but Moline was forced to punt after a fumble by Wessel. Coming up from their own five, Monmouth lost the ball on their own 45 and Moline marched on down with Neumann doing the final scoring. -W. Moline 41-Gcrlesburg 7 Sweeping the Galesburg Streaks before them, the mighty Moline Maroons smashed their way to their fourth victory of the season and their third consecutive conference triumph. Using only the simplest of plays, the Maroons counted twice in the first period, once each in the second and third stanzas, and twice in the final quarter. These scores were rolled up by Dodd, C. Wood, Olson, Wessel, lohnson, and Petrilli, proving the versatility of the Moline squad. Coach Senneff used his entire traveling squad of twenty-five players and they came through as usual. The last two touchdowns were scored by Aa reserve team. The Streaks, however, had the honor of being the first team to score on the Maroons this season. 4 Qaaidall Moline 6-East Moline U By the skin of their teeth the Maroons won the Men's game this year. Slipping, sliding, and stumbling over the rain- soaked turf, the heavily favored Maroons marched 76 yards early in the game for the score that brought them their fourth conference victory and also gave them the lead in the Quad- City loop. For East Moline it was complete elimination from the Northwest race and was doubly discouraging because, but for several tough breaks, the game might have been theirs. Moline's luck was with them, however, and they came through. The Maroon attack was sparked by the smashing attempts of Bill Dodd who made from 3 to l9 yards per try. Leech also starred as ball carrier on the old tackle-around play. Evanston 7-Moline U Moans and groans! Dirges and la- mentsl Moline's great eleven has been beaten. ln spite of the giant opposition the Evanstonians presented to our boys, the Maroons did mighty well for themselves in nearly upsetting the highly-touted Evanston team, won a moral victory at least. Moline threat- ened three times and if it hadn't been that the breaks were running the wrong way, might easily have won. At the kickoff Moline took the ball to the Evanston 9 after a fumble by Wheeler. ln the shadow of the goal posts, how- ever, Moline also fumbled and the chance was gone. Late in the game Petrilli threw a pass to Brasmer that was as near perfect as any pass may be but the bad luck descended upon Dave and the ball went bouncing out of his arms. The loss, of course, mars the Maroons' perfect record but does not affect Moline's standing in the Northwest and Quad-City conferences. C H Yr . xx NH? X Q '1 ff' Dodd Glson Wessel C, Wood B. Iohnson Neuman lump Brasmer Cameron Lind Nordquist Thompson Moline 0-Rock Island U The long awaited game with Rock lsland proved very disappointing to fans of both schools. While the lsland- ers were surely not playing champion- ship football, the Maroons were far off stride and didn t resemble the team that had smashed all opponents in the Northwest conference. After a long layoff and the defeat handed them by Evanston, the Maroons were rusty and lacked the fight they have been dis- playing. The Moline lads can at least claim one of the best displays of good sportsmanship that has been seen of late. Rock Island showed a slight edge in most departments of the game but were unable to penetrate Moline's de- fense for the necessary score. The tie had no effect on Moline's chances for taking the Quad-City 'title or a place in the Northwest Conference. Az,.,,,,,A1 IZ Ek .. 1 6 Lai, Q.,-g,4g ,kr Moline 34-Davenport U With amazing power that surprised even Coach Senneff, the all-mighty Maroons ended their grid season by thoroughly trouncing a strong Davenport eleven 34-U. With that victory came the Dispatch trophy, this time to stay. The Maroons easily outclassed their opponents and marked up five scores, with Brasmer getting two, and one each by Wessel, Nordguist, and Olson. After an evenly fought first quarter the Moline squad started rolling and gained at will for the remaining quarters. Moline used 23 players and ended up one of the most successful grid seasons Moline has enjoyed. The entire squad, regulars and reserves alike, played a great brand of football and have given Moline another season to be proud of. 4 f Q M, - Sapiwmaae Zlwzfdali ll-Rissler, Iohnson, Engstrom, Cox I-Waldron, Anderson, Hardy, Exline, Blunt, Bond, Smartzy ll-Engdahl, Guyer, Senneff l-Tedell, Eng, Melton, Abrahamson, Leaf, Becker, lohnson Coach Bill Lane's Sophomore team had an unusual season, but managed to win the Quad-City title and thereby garner the only trophy open to their competition. They lost the first four games of the season, and then got started and won the last four. Bock lsland was the first team to take our Sophs into camp by a 6 to U score, however, it was later discovered that they had used an in- eligible player and the Maroons were given a l-U victory. A week later at Clinton another setback was handed the Moliners by a 6 to O score. Davenport swamped Lane's team 13 to O, which was followed by the fourth straight loss of the season, this one to Galesburg, l2 to 6. The Sophs started on the comeback trail by beating East Moline l9 to O. A week later they kept rolling by overrunning Kewanee, 25 to 6. They then proceeded to avenge former defeats by beating Bock lsland 12 to U and Daven- port 25 to 6. With only one loss to their credit, the Little Maroons, led by Don Iohnson and Cliff Eng- strom, were declared champs of the Quad- Cities. This seems to indicate that Coach Sen- neff has plenty of material coming up for the next two years. 7aack IV-Coach Bean, Coach Senneff, Wallarab, Mey, Thompson, Whitfield, Kuntz, Coach Potter, Coach Lane lll-Roberts, Blackburn, Hardy, Kozikowski, Kron, Samuelson, Engstrom, Larson, Sennefi, Swanson, Rissler ll-Carlson, Cole, Roby, Smith, Ford, Strandlund, Sherman, Melin, Tedell, Stevens I-Lockhart, Thompson, Seigfried, Ekstam, Iensen, Lanier, Brasmer, Petrille, Bowman, Miller About sixty-four boys reported for track the first week of practice, among these were five veterans. After a month of extensive working the squad was cut down to a workable size with Dave Brasmer, Dwight Ekstam, Paul Wes- sel, Marshall Lanier, and Clarence Siegfried doing the best work. The squad took part in nine meets, starting with the Geneseo relays and ending with the Quad-City meet in Davenport. Although they were unable to win any of the early relay meets, they won their share of firsts in the N.W,C. meet on May fifth. Davenport rather blackened the season by winning both their own relay meet early in the year and then win- ning the Quad-City event tune l. 611,044 601444514 Yeam 1 ll-Lanier, Welch l- -Hannon, Krone B Z True to pre-season predictions, Coach Sen- neff brought out an outfit with a lot of skill, fight, and power that fought its way to a tie in 'the Northwest Conference and brought further glory to Moline by winning high honors in the state tournament. Due in part to the return of seven varsity letter men, the Maroons won 8 and lost only 2 in the Conference for the sea- son, winning a total of 2l out of 27 games. Starting their season on December 9th, Mo- line won its first game by defeating a weak Fulton outfit by a score of 42-l9. The team looked very good and showed strong reserve strength, using fifteen players in the tilt. Dave Brasmer led the scoring with a total of lU points and was followed by Captain Henning Olson with 9. The following week end the Monmouth five ventured down to the field house to receive a 60-l7 drubbing at the hands of a red-hot Mo- line quintet. Bob Iohnson and Dave Brasmer scored l3 points apiece to lead the team in the razzle-dazzle exhibition put on by Moline. Thursday of the next week, Moline went to Kewanee for a real rough and tumble battle, with the Maroons coming out on the long end of a 40-22 count. Four boys fouled out, but, led by Turner and lohnson, they piled up enough points to add another victory to the list. The following Saturday the Maroons traveled to Galesburg for their fourth game. The game was nip and 'tuck the first half with the lead changing hands several times. Dick Lind's re- bounding turned the tide in the third quarter and started the drive to a 4U-19 finish. Chalking up No. 5 on the victory parade, Moline defeated a bewildered opponent from Franklin of Cedar Rapids by a runaway score Olson Brasmer B. lohnson Miller Turner Gustafson Badwtdwll of 41-13. Bob Iohnson led the scoring with 13 points. 'This game preceded an exhibition game between Augustana and Oregon Uni- versity, the National Collegiate Champions. A stand up and knock 'em down policy prevailed when the Maroons met Davenport 1-ligh School on the Blue Devils' floor. Henning Olson led the Moliners with 14 points and sank a basket in the last minute to win this thriller by a score of 38-37 for the Maroons' sixth straight victory. After traveling by Rocket to Waukegan, the team was handed their first defeat of the sea- son by a race-horse Waukegan quintet by the narrow margin of 43-41. The next night the boys lost a second game by two points, the score being 38-40 in favor of Morton. Discour- aging as the losses were, the boys gained val- uable experience and were encouraged by Dave Brasmer's showing in making 28 points in the two games. On returning home Moline dropped their third in a row by losing to Rock lsland by a score of 31-29, in an overtime game. The ls- landers were paced by Zeke Zwicker in break- ing a string of 16 consecutive losses to Moline teams. Looking more like 'the championship outfit of the early season games, the team pounded out a 5U-23 win over the East Moline Hilltoppers. This was the last game for dependable Dick Lind whose rebounding played a large part in Moline's victories. lohnson led the scoring with 18 points. Stepping back into the lead in the Northwest Conference, the high-stepping Maroons defeat- ed a fighting Galesburg outfit 43-24. Sparked by Gustafson's excellent rebounding, the team E added again to their streak. Playing an erratic game with streaks of brilliant playing and un- canny shooting, the Moliners, led by lack Turn- er's scoring, beat a dull Monmouth team by a score of 37-16. Back on their home court again the Moline boys lost a heart-breaking overtime game to Davenport. With a chance to salt the game away in the closing seconds, Guffy missed a free throw and the Blue Devils racked up two free throws in the overtime 'to win 26-25. The Maroons were way off form and scored only five field goals. Led by Olson and Turner the Maroons went on a scoring spree, beating Kewanee by a score of 54-18. The reserves added many points to the total. Going down in defeat to the Bock Island team for the second time by 34-31, Moline looked poor against the rebounding of Lundstedt who scored 15 points for the Crim- son and Gold. Playing for a crowd of Men, the Maroons defeated a fighting Canton team by the close score of 35-31. The scoring was even up until Larry Sandberg poured in three field goals in one minute to put the game on ice. Working hard for a title, Moline bowled over the East Moliners again by a score of 31-18 to clinch a tie in the Northwest Conference. Bob Iohnson led the scoring with 12 points and Gustafson played a fine game at center. Regional Tournament Moline opened the Regional Tourney with an uninteresting scoring exhibition by the Maroon reserves who led a bewildered Reynolds team 60-21 at gun-time. Bob Miller led the scoring with 11 points. Liljegren Lind Wessel Liljeberg H. lohnson Sandberg Petrilli Oscar ' B ln rapid succession the Plow Boys dispatched East Moline 45-30 and Rock Island 48-32. With Brasmer and Guffy controlling the rebounds and Bob lohnson holding up his rating as high scorer for the season in the Northwest Confer- ence, Moline swept away all doubt as to their superiority. Sectional Tournament Starting the Sectional tournament in iden- tical style as the Regional, Moline beat Morri- son by a score of 54-24, Gustafson and Sand- berg each scoring l2 points. Outrunning a giant Colchester quintet the next night by a score of 38-Sl, the Maroons went into the finals and succeeded in beating Rock lsland again by the score of 43-28. Play- ing fast but sure basketball the team looked like real championship material. State Tournament Upsetting the dope bucket by a ragged 28-23 victory over Casey, the Maroons found new life and opened up their bag of tricks. Led by little Bob Miller, sophomore star, Moline showed a complete reversal of form and went on to beat a first-class Lewistown team 49-32. Finally running into disaster in the form of All-State Andy Phillips, Moline dropped the semi-final game to Granite City by a close score of 4l-38. The boys led until the last two minutes when two long shots by Andy Phillips changed the final score. However, they came in strong in the consolation game to beat Champaign by Sl-33 and to win third place in the State tournament. Moline was further hon- ored by having Edsel Gustafson chosen as center on the All-Tournament team. l lll-Coach Senneff, Coach Potter, Mr, Holmgren llwBill Purse, Harvey Pearson, Don lohnson, Dave Cox, Howcrd Foss l-Henry Doyle, lohn Doyle, Glen Krone, Cliff Engstrom, Bob Exline Sopfzamaae Eafikefiall Coach Roger Potters sophomores completed the '39-'40 season with their usual good record. Beaten only three times during the year, they showed real scoring power in averaging better than 36 points per game. They plowed under the Fulton reserve squad 4U to 20 to show right from the start what they intended to do. Monmouth, their second op- ponent, fell 45-27 before a barrage of basket- shooting. They ran into a snag at Kewanee and fell 34 to 27 before a determined group of Boilermalcer sophomores. Starting out shakily, they managed to else out the next game over Galesburg 30-27, when Cliff Engstrom scored in a sudden death over- time period. The next six victories were: a close 35-27 battle with Davenport, a 40-l2 slaughter of the lslander sophs, a narrow 2- point margin in the 27-25 victory over East Moline, a 37-24 subduing of Galesburg, a 45-l8 swamping of the Monmouth quintet, and then a soul-satisfying 37 to l7 victory over Davenport. Kewanee again proved to be the sour note on our schedule when they beat the 'little Maroons Sl to 27. The Sophomores went after Rock lsland with a vengeance in the next game and won 44 to 25, The next night they beat Sherrard 45 to 27, but they were beaten the last game of the season in a Sl-29 overtime game with East Moline. However, with such a fine record, this team should be able to carry on the record set up by this year's varsity squad.

Now in its second year, it had over sixty active members. Under the efficient coaching of Mr. Roy Piersel, the club has advanced enough to shoot in matches with Davenport's R.O.T.C. Rifle Club, and the Roosevelt Military Academy, The club is affiliated with the National Rifle Asso- ciation and all club members may receive N.R.A. ratings for the targets. The United States Army has furnished two rifles for the club and an annual reg- istration of 400 rounds of ammunition per man. The team shoots in two divisions, one on Tuesday and one on Thursday, at the field house. The girls also have a division of the club which meets on Monday. The officers of the club, which directed it through a successful year, were: Don Wonderlick, president, Bob Klann, vicevpresident, and lean Riggs, secretary.

Caroline Carlson won third place in this tourna- ment. ln the double tournament, which was held a week later, Shirley Streeter teamed with Marilyn Rossiter to beat Elaine Olson and Caroline Carl- son, in the championship game. This was only after about eight other duos had been eliminated. With the continued success of the badminton tournament in its second year, it has become one of the most popular sports for high school girls, and especially those in our G.A.A. vazzeyiazz we aww Miss McElroy For two weeks in March, about twenty-five high school girls spent their leisure time after school batting a volleyball back and forth over the net. After they became quite proficient they elected captains and played a series of games. Although no definite schedule was arranged, a heated riv- alry was developed. When spring was really upon us, the members of the GAA. got out the bat and ball and began baseball practice. This was conducted somewhat in the same way as volleyball with no definite schedule being drawn up, but the girls choosing sides every night. This provided the girls with a full-time schedule which began in the fall, and was not completed until it became too warm to work out in the gym. S . .

A squad of Moline swimmers engaged in three dual meets, two of them with Clinton and one with Galesburg. Our first swimming meet with the experienced Clinton squad, ended with a 57 to 18 victory for the lowa champions. How- ever, when the Maroon tankmen met -the Galesburg squad, they scored a 49 to 23 victory. Later in the year they were again beaten by the Clinton team. As the first Quad-City school to have a winning team, we feel justly proud of Coach Potter and his fifteen boys. Prospects for the next year are very good with only three of the boys graduating. Outstanding members of this year's squad were Dwight Ek- stam in the 40-yafrd free style and Don Wright in the 100-yard free style. No definite action has been taken yet to determine the status of the sport as far as letters are concerned, but if other schools begin to have teams, a full schedule will be worked out in both Quad-City and Northwest competition. 0 LX 394 4 X A f -.JY gui Q f xiii? 22 3 V-Osborn, Earl, Blaclcledge, Erlostine, Gustafson, Smith, Delano Anderson IV-Soderstrom, Charles Anderson, Anders, Townsend, Wellnitz, Ziffren, Don Larson, Cordell, Nelson, Neighbor, Wright, Richards Ill-Scott, Sherman, Engdahl, Coddington, McCurdy, Fluent, Gales, Gustafson, Ryan, Van Dyke ll-Settle, Bellson, Kenneth Iohnson, Foster, Madison, Spencer, Phyllis Nelson, Carr, Meyers, Rice, Malm- berg, Peal l-leltema, Elinor Iohrison, Dale, Scott, Brasmer, Carmen, Youngdahl, Ecker, Bailey, Arndt, Guyer, Anna '7!w Bam! ,i -A X:- M.H.S. has finally gotten together a band that is worthy of its fine athletic teams. Although not the biggest in the Quad-Cities, our band was snappier and more colorful. One of the outstanding features of this year's band was the swingy quintet which provided extra entertainment in roll call programs. Once again members of our band placed high in the state music contest. Louis Bellson, drummer, and Harry Soderstrom, trombone, gained first-class rank- ing, While Vivian Foster, Raymond Brasmer, Beder Wood, and Roy Gustafson all earned secondfclass rankings.

They have done an admirable job oi it this year by holding several social gatherings. The opening meeting was in the form oi a l'Cfet-Acauainted Tea at which the new members Were made to feel at home. Three members were sent to the Five River City Conference on September 23 and 24 as MHS. representatives. At a recognition service, HifY mern- bers became junior members ot the Y.W.C.A, The club held a Christmas program at the Y.VV.C.A. A motheredaughter banquet and the ane nual Easterlenten services rounded out a full social year. Among the more informal gatherings were a slumber party at the Y and a skating party at the Fairgrounds. The highlight was a trip to Chicago on a chartered bus. Otiicers are: President... . ....

Each month the girls hold a meeting and have a dinner and a speaker. With Miss Entriken, Miss Stacy, Miss Hopkins, and Miss Melin as sponsors, the club's activities were di- rected by Arlene lohnson, Betty Anderson, and Marilyn Bossiter. The meetings this year centered around the theme What a Wonderful World. From this, we gather that the girls are pretty well pleased with life. The high light of the year was the combined pro- duction with the Fellowship Club. The Senior Showboatw was an entirely different kind of produc- tion for Ml-l.S. and certainly was a successful one. lt was only through determined effort of the girls, combined with the boys' help, that this elaborate production was produced. an VfKlahnnC Rcglstan, Brasher, Peal, Carlson, Heller, DeFraties, Leonard, Coddingron, Coleman, Helstrorn, Engdahl, Benson, .c ur y lV-Ziffern, Allen, Sundquist, Efflandt, Olclefest, Allmendinger, Harper, Todd, Siegfried, Purse, Dunn, lester, Barnett, Knees IllwBarnard, Alden, Thorngren, Hunt, Miedike, Getz, Lundeen, lfromme, Donovan, Struck, Sharp ll-Duncan, Ardern, Wright, Boost, Carlson, Sonner, Rossiter, Bonggren, Pearson, Sornrnerson, Tillberq, Owens, Peterson, Carlson, Carradine, Moines, Bloom l-f-Helen lohnson, Duncan, Arlene lohnson, Specht, Shollenberger, Hill, Roberts, Nancy lohnson, McCurdy, Holtz, Carlson, Thompson, Ohlendorl, Shawgo, Dowie fbaamalic Glad All promising young actors look forward to a try- out for the M.l-l.S.

A one-act D play was put on at each meeting, and from the cream of the crop a cast was gathered for the annual threefact production. The clulo has received recoge nition in national dramatic magazines for their splendid work. This years play, 'Death Takes a Holiday, was one of the most serious hits of work ever under' taken. The story dwelt on Death and its reaction in our lives. Sponsors of the club consist of Miss Garst, Miss Miller, Miss Rice Toyne, and Miss Hendee.

Points are awarded tor participation in each activ- ity and letters or numerals are given when a girl has received a speciiied number ot points. Under guidance ot Miss McElroy and Miss Duis- decker, Shirley Streeter, Beda Carlstrom, and Car- olyn Carlson led the club to a very successful year in all sports. The girls are allowed to use the gym tor their games and some of them are put on tor the public. By charging admission to these games, enough money is raised to keep the club seltfsupporting. Q. 4 4.

Due to this, Moline High has a complete and modern picture outfit. Both silent and talking films, as Well as slides, are used in many of the classes today. Since so many films are being shown there is a great demand for operators. These boys are coached in operating the ma- chines and repairing films. lt is their responsibility to see that the films are shown at the right time and if something goes Wrong, they must be alert and fix it immediately. The boys deserve much credit for this work because they usually operate a film sevf eral times a Week. The equipment for Ml-l.S. is among the best in the state and the operators must be just as good, to keep to schedules that are made for them.

The club holds a meeting the second Thursday of each month. On December l-4, the club had a faculty tea for the purpose of acguainting the teach- ers With new books. Among their activities Were a trip through the Moline Public Library, a picnic at Riverside Park, and a Christmas party at which gifts were ex- changed and refreshments were served. Officers: Florence Stoelting, Genevieve Bjorn, and Marion Walther.

Under the direction of lohn Sondberg, former Ml-l.S, grctdudte, the boys were the most octive of the three Hi-Y groups. They hdd their shore of hikes, feeds, ond parties. One trddition of the three clubs ore the potluck suppers. On these occorsions egch boy brings his shore of the food, it is wormed ond set on the totble, grdce is solid, ond then the rgce is on. lt hctd otlwgys been d ncigtter of serious question ds to how so much food could disotppegr in such ci short tirne. w. 5 ,lla-W The Sophs showed their origindlity by hov- ing cr born dornce gt Comp Houberg.

Ji-W The lunior boys went into their second year of organization with their usual vim and vigor. Their sponsor, Mr. Carpenter, helped them plan their feeds, parties, and over-night stays at Camp l-fauberg. Two week-end parties were at camp last fall and the boys spent quite a bit of time wander- ing up and down the river and hunting. lnside information has it that they had some pretty wild times. lim Otis, Vernon Alden, and lohn Arndt repf resented the club at Whea'ton. lt is said that they spent twice as much time in Chicago as they did at the convention. lll-Iohnson, Van Wonterghen, Rundquist Carlson, Nordquist son berg, English Meetings were held Tuesday evening at 7:30. The boys spent their time discussing education, colleges, personal characteristics, and social problems. In the spring most of them spent Tuesday evening dancing rather than at the meetings, so the Gordon Memorial Church was proclaimed their new headquarters.

They took part in sports as well as taking a series of TQ. tests. lt seems as though the boys knew more about basketball than they did about English, etc. ln basketball, led by Cliff Wood, Bud Resser, and Bob Swenson, they won eight games while losing only three. Two of these defeats were to the faculty from whom they also gained two victories. Several speakers were engaged during the year. The most interesting of these were: Dr. Swim ,lla-W Temple, who told of his hair-raising experi- ences, and Dr. Serenius, who tried to answer the boys' questions about college, Later in the year Mr. Steftenson sponsored a series of aptitude tests to determine what field of industry each boy was best suited for. Exams were made in business, chemical, and mechanical fields. President Dave Tunnicliff, Vice-President Vel- mar Gustafson, and Secretary Clarence Sieg- fried were among the group of boys who at- tended the State Conference at Wheaton. May 25 a group of the boys attended some interest- ing conferences at Monmouth. Www! Glad Displaying an amazing amount of talent, both as a group and in solo numbers, Miss Dunlap's Choral Club has completed another successful season. Although they made very few appearances as a group, their training made them valuable in some of the musical productions. ln l'The Pied Piper of Hamelinn several mem- bers of the club took the leads and were in the chorus. Miss Dunlap directed this produc- tion. Later in the music festival of Hansel and Gretelf' they had another chance to display their talent. lllAWilliam Anderson, Soderstrorn, lohn- ston ll-Olafson, Carlson, Barnett, Bloom, Cole- man l-McClatchey, Holtz, Meegan, Sonner, Dowie, Miller However, the 'Senior Showboatu was the highlight of the season for the entire music de- partment. Doris Sonner, Pat Coleman, Elaine Bloom, Harry Soderstrom, William Anderson, and Betty Holtz all sang solos in this produc- tion. Their numbers showed exactly the variety of training that can be had in our music de- partment. lust before the Christmas holidays the club, as a group, sang carols to the entire school, while walking slowly through the halls. The club also sang at baccalaureate services and for the commencement exercises. ll-Betty l7lyn, Betty Anderson, Betty Sun- din, Shirley Streeter I-Shirley Bell, lune Bjurstrom, Mr, lones, Ruth Lloyd, Betty Duncan This club, which was organized in l935, sut- tered this year in number ot members, but those who joined the club certainly showed no letting down in the amount ot interest in the activities ot the club. Under the supervision ot Mr. lones, the girls learned all about bow and arrows. They stud- ied the history ot this ancient sport, as well as the correct technique in modern archery. Every Friday afternoon they met in the gymnasium and practiced indoor target shooting. As soon as the weather cleared up, they were able to get outdoors, and anyone wandering back ot rqachwq Glad the Mausoleum was liable to pick up a stray arrow for his troubles. Shirley Streeter Csee above picturel proved to be one ot the best archers ot the club, while several ot the other girls really learned how to handle the bow and arrow. With this sport be- coming one at the most popular tor both men and women, all ot the members are sure to be glad that they have had this expert tutoring. Betty Sundin, President, Ruth Lloyd, Vice- President, and Iune Bjurstrom, Secretary, were the otticers who led the club this year. Halma! LUN!

Columbus dreamed his dream and discovered America. Our Colonial forefathers dreamed their dreams and gave us the Declaration of Inde- pendence. Pasteur, Edison, Fulton, Marconi, Madam Curie, every great man or woman has dreamed a dream. Back in the middle 1830's a village blacksmith in central Illinois dreamed his dream--a plow that would scour in the prairie soils of the opening West. It was just a dream until that early spring morning in 1837 when Iohn Deere turned his dream into a reality and laid the foundation oi the great organization that bears his name today. With Iohn Deere, as with every man or woman who leaves an impress on the pages of history, success followed the ability to turn the gossamer of a dream into the granite of achievement.

AUGUSTANA BOOK CONCERN Qprinters and Qinders ofthe BBT, 1940 ROCK ISLAND, ILLINOIS 146 he Molirie Board of Education congratulates the members of the graduatf ing class on the successful completion of their Senior High School work. Acting for the citizens of Moliiie we have tried to provide the best of school facilities for you and for those who follow you. The development of health, mental power and character is the main purpose of our school system, and we believe that you have made good use of the opportunity afforded you along this line. But individual development and improvement are not enough. Our school training has failed if it has not shown you the necessity of using this development for your own advancement. Every year that passes sees our life become more complex and makes the individual more dependent on the contributions of others to his welfare. Unfortunately in recent years many people have interpreted this fact as meaning that the individual is no longer responsible for his own welfare or success. There has been a growing feeling that one need not exert himself-that society owes him a living-that he is ,entitled to be socially secureu regardless of his contribution to society. Notliirig could be more disastrous for our American way of life than for such views to be widely held. The increasing complexity of our life requires that we cooperate more closely with others, but it does not relieve us of any degree of indif vidual responsibility. We as individuals must continue to display the initiaf tive and industry that has placed our country far ahead of all the nations in the world in material prosperity, in political and spiritual freedom, and in everything that makes life worth living. We hope that you will keep this allfimportant fact in mind as you leave high school for further study, or to engage directly in the workaday life of this or some other community. Qur American heritage of opporf tunity is a priceless possession. We ask you to preserve it intact for those who follow you.
