We have endeavored to make this 1920 Milestone a book of interest; a souvenir for the faculty, the alumni, the under-classmen, and the graduates. We have attempted to portray the ideals, life and enthusiasm of the High School body. If we have even partially succeeded in our effort to interest our friends, and to produce a booklet that will be as a milestone in the life of the student, we feel ourselves well paid, and our effort worth while. ......mu............. .......................... iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiniiiiitiiiiiiiiiiitmiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii J20 Milestone miimini Dedication To the new High School of Norfolk, this, the 1920 Milestone, is respectfully dedicated. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimmiiiiiiiiimiiii 1IIII......I 1920 ...................................................................................................... mm............. oP C f c vit t y At u to m Classes 2 . t Kl. ett c 0z o s X, 0 TV e n t S s lllllllllllllll......I......HIIIUIIIIIIIIHIIItl....II « lllllllllll..........mu.................I.......Illllllll racvLT3 . mi..mi..............mint... 1920 Milestone...111111 Mr. George Kendall.

II. S. XT IS to you the Alumni of the Norfolk High School, that we wish to extend our heartiest greetings, in this, our Year Book. You, like we, have known the joys and pleasures of four years spent in this High School. You have traveled the same paths, attended the same classes and have done many of the same things we have done. Sometimes when our lessons have seemed hard, or we have become discouraged, we have had only to stop and think of you, and our load begins to feel lighter. We know that you had your disappointments, and overcame them, that you won out against all obstacles, then we feel that we too can go on and accomplish great things. liiiiimiii iiiiniiiiiiiiiiiniiiimiiiiiiiniimiiiiHiiiiiiiniiiii n iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiii iiiinmm J2() Milestone null..

Your class, no doubt, has had quite a history, but I doubt very much if it can in any way compare with the class history of the historic class of 1920 of the Norfolk High School.” “Tell me something of that class, Dad; I never get tired listening to your high school experiences.” Well, as I have told you many times, we had what is acknowledged to be the best class ever graduated from that fine old school. We started our Freshman year with an enrollment of about ninety members, every one as green as any freshman ever was. “Soon after getting started, our class advisor, Miss Waters, called us together and we elected Gertrude Madsen, president of the class, Dorothy Crosier, vice president, and Clarence Kellogg, secretary and treasurer. “The first social event was on the evening when the Sophomores entertained us. A pie-eating contest was the chief event of the evening. Speeches by the class officers were made. “Then we had a party all of our own, and we certainly felt dignified. “The second semester our numbers were increased to about one hundred and twenty. We, the first semester Freshies, gave a big party entertaining the new Freshies and the Sophomores. This was our last social event as Freshies. “As Sophomores we elected Charlotte Mathewson, president, Jeanette Mayer, vice president, and Katherine Booth, secretary and treasurer. Our sponsor for the first semester was Miss Snyder; she left to be married and we chose Miss Munkoff to fill her place. We were again left alone when she resigned her position as teacher, so we chose Miss Sullivan for the rest of the year. “We had three big times this year: We entertained the Freshies, and had farewell parties for each of our departing sponsors. “In our Junior year our number had decreased to about forty students. We chose Leroy Clements, president, Viva Tutt, vice president, and Joanna Roberts, secretary and treasurer. Our big party the first semester was the Junior masquerade party at which the Seniors were uninvited guests. Then we had a hare and hound hunt with the seniors, and gave them a good feed afterwards. Our Junior play, “The Time of His Life,” was the success of the sea-son. “The Junior-Senior banquet that we served the Seniors, will never be forgotten, but that is a story in itself so I will only mention it now. “As Seniors, (of course our last year will be the best remembered), we elected Vincent Coyle, president, Jay Hepperly, vice president, and Charlotte Craven, secretary and treasurer. Our first party was a “Hard Times party held in the High School. It was a great success; and was the party given by Miss Hyde for the Seniors on Leicester’s birthday soon after. Then came the Junior-Senior hare and hound race. Of course the Juniors didn t find us, and we enjoyed a good feed at their expense. One of the biggest events took place when we had a progressive party; Leroy Clements, Eva O’Neill and Viva Tutt in succession entertaining the class. Seniors also did their part nobly on a box social to send our boys to the basketball tournament. “Perhaps, son, your days in school have been quite different, but 1 think, and don’t you too, that those I have just related to you could compare favorably with every other account of its sort? Don’t you think that fathers High School days were a success?” ..................................................................... � � ................................................ umimin 1920 Milpsfono iiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiimiimimiiiiimii Last Will and Testament of The Class of 1920. We, the Senior Class of Norfolk High School, in solemn conclave assembled, being of sound minds and memories and considering the uncertainty of this frail and transitory life, do therefore make, ordain, publish and declare this to be our last Will and Testament: First, we order and direct that our Executors, the Junior Class hereinafter named, pay all our just debts and graduation expenses as soon after our decease as conveniently may be. Second, after all payment of such graduation expenses and debts we devise, and bequeath the following: To the Faculty we leave our good advice which we together have amassed since our debut in high school. To the Junior Class we leave our good reputation, our “pull” with the Faculty and our unexcelled ability in theatricals knowing that they need these (especially the latter) badly. To our beloved sister class the Sophomores we leave our success in Junior-Senior banquets. We also leave with them the joy of editing the “Milestone” with all the glories, troubles and brainstorms therein involved. To the Freshmen we bequeath nothing but our sympathy. Little do they know of the weary trail through high School. Beresford Beck hereby gives, devises and makes over to Hadley Kelsey all his ability of making two thousand horse power “Midget” racers in the certainty that Hadley might acquire enough speed to finish school. Blanche Broadstone would hand down to Lillian Kennerson her quiet unassuming manner fearing that this young lady will need it in the years to come. James Connely after much hesitation has decided to will to Guy Best that excess popularity with the girls which he now possesses. Joanna Roberts leaves to any girl who merits it her good looks and her ‘ leads in class plays. Leroy Clements gladly leaves all No-Hi-So publications with George Schel-ly. He also wills to Ernest Foster the inestimable privilege of answering all early morning phone calls. To Lawton Phinney he leaves his success in dramatics. Ed Schram says that he won’t leave nothin’ to nobodv. It has taken him too long to get what he has got and he needs it all. Edith Davidson most hastily leaves to Beulah Cullins her “gift of gab” in all assemblies. To Dorothy Witters she leaves her powers of salesmanship Max Winter has decided not to will any of his “N’s.” He leaves to all the r reshmen the chance to win as many as he now possesses. Dorothy Brown would hand down to Margaret Allen her smiles fearing that to remove them from the school atmosphere would be fatal to its efficiency Dolores Carlin bequeaths to Dorothy Drebert her “baby doll” eyes. I cggy Andiess bequeaths to Amy Jacox her man. She does not know that she has one but being accused of such a crime wishes to rid herself of any grounds of suspicion. Vincent Coyle leaves his habit of industry to any one that needs it. Mae O’Gorman, Carrie Boyle and Mae Morris leave all their unused activ-ities to Marion Barkhuft, Kathleen Hoffman and Blanche Earwood respectively. Jay Hepperly leaves his “stand in with the teachers to Elmer McGinnis with the hope that it will be of use to him. Ambyr Deuel and Bernice Fitch will their wonderful abundance of golden locks to Frances Keyes that she may become the “Mary Pickford” of N. H. S Helen Donisthorpe leaves with Leota Daughtery her love for Cadweil as she is glad to be relieved of this acquisition. mu1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 .i in1111111111111111n1111111111111111n11111111111111111j7TT ......... l(J20 Milestone flfiiiiinn Elma Huebner anxiously bequeaths to Charlotte Beverly her vampy eyes Vesta Kenney leaves her Elite fashion plate clothes to Carrie Rosenthal. Oliver Iviesau and Albert Kendall gladly leave behind some of their excess energy and spare time to Maurice Carter and Ed Kell trusting thus to assist these busy boys. Dee Moore leaves his ability to make high school in three years to John Allen. Jeanette Mayer wills to Dorothy Campbell her jitney service license trusting that Dorothy will make as good use of it as she did. Charlotte Craven bequeaths to Clarice Castle her position as accompanist for the glee clubs. Eva O’Neil leaves her naturally curly hair to Florence Seder as curling irons are disastrous to beauty. Grace Raymond and Lucile Probert bequeath their dignified manner and behavior to Luree Evans and Veda Rees. Viva Tutt donates her faculty for carrying eight subjects to Jean South and Josephine Maylard. Philip Rice wishes to leave behind for Gordan Hurlbert his “ethiopian dialect.” Clyde Sanford bequeaths his ever ready excuse to Paul Pyche. Elmer Kennard wills to every-other-girl in high school the memory of at least one date with him. LaVeme Schiebe with sighs of relief bequeaths to Harvey Nelson and Everret Barrett her duties of checking up the school. Ruth Taft gladly gives to Adella Wenrick, Earl Bohl. Ruth is confident that she has mesmerized him and it is idle folly to care where he goes. Gertrude Kendall wishes to bestow upon Leora Klug her art of using the lorgnette in theatricals when playing dignified roles. Lois Platt grants cheerfully her “giggle” to Gwendolyn Ahlman having been told that it denotes fickleness and becoming desirous of forsaking such childish follies now that she feels old age creeping upon her. Leicester Hyde with deep regrets submits his art in burlesque to Lloyd Higgenbotham and to Everett Isaacson he grants all of his managerial abilities. Last we make, constitute and appoint the Junior Class to be Executors of this our last Will and Testament, hereby revoking all former wills made bv us in N. H. S. In Witness Whereof, we have hereunto subscribed our name and affixed our seal, the day of May 20 in the year of our Graduation, one thousand nine hundred and twenty. Miss Hayes Mr. E. Keester Senior High School days are over for Seniors, Sad, sad, words to relate, For oh, these halls of learning, We certainly loathe to forsake. The treasured memories and fancies That carry us back o’er the past, Seem to recall and enhance The days that pass so fast. The joys and sorrows that filled them, All rush to us o’er and o’er, And we long for the days that used to be, We long for them more and more. Farewell. But every rose must have it’s thorn. And so we find it here, Depart from that we fondly cherish, And the things we hold most dear. Our pathway lies outstretched afar, Plainly marked for us, we fear, We all must enter the school of life Before the dawn of another year. To the four winds we’ll be scattered, North, South, East and West, But our thoughts will wander backward, To the place we love the best. millllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll 2' HIHUIIIIIIIIIIIIII............III!......Illlllllllllllll......... illinium Jf)20 1 lilovlnno iiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiminiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiniiim ......................... inn.....iimmii -■ minimi..........iiimnii...........

On one of those beautiful days in early September, in the fall of 1917, the Senior High School extended a hearty welcome to the class of 1921. Now all Freshies are sorely tried, for they must pass through a great deal of ridicule and banter from the upper classmen; but this class soon showed their worth and quality. After class organization and election of officers, which resulted in bestowing upon George Schelly the honor and responsibility of the class presidency, the first important event of the season was a Hallowe’en party which was held in Verges park. All of the class came in costume, and a most Enjoyable evening was spent. During the early part of this year, the Sophomores entertained for the Freshmen. The beginning of the Sophomore year found the class returning with their former enthusiasm. Guy Best was elected president. The flu made its inroads this year, and we have nothing of importance to write of excepting the declamatory contest in which Harry Carson won second place in the District contest. Another year passed quickly. The class returned and elected Marion Craven president. The first event of the year was the hare and hound race. Wow! we paid two-thirds of the bill. Next came the Junior class play. In this the class quite outdid itself in the presentation of “The Hoodoo.” The class has also shown its ability in athletics, the Juniors winning the interclass basketball championship The Junior-Senior banquet was the last big event in our Junior year. There is but one year left for the class of 1921 to show what they are capable of doing, but, judging by what they have done in the past, there can be no doubt as to the outcome of the future. miiiiiiiHiiiimiiiiiiiimnHuiniunminniimin ...............n..... iiiiiiiiimiimtiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiminimiimiiniii s,- iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimii |J .)

We entered Norfolk High School in the fall of 1918, having a rather large class, from which we chose Lester Rogers, president; Cadwell King, vice president ; Jo May lard, secretary and treasurer, and Miss McMahon sponsor. Later we were forced to elect another president and Cadwell King was elected to this office. The one event of the season was the Freshman picnic; we enjoyed this event immensely. iiiinimimmiiiimimimiimmiimiiiiiimmm ....... m n 11 mi 111 in 111 mm i n n 11 min i m ................................... 1920 MilestoneUUUUUil SOPHOMORES 1st Down left to right: Gale Wallace.

In our Sophomore year we were surprised and disappointed to find that our class had grown much smaller. At our first class meeting this year we elected Ernest Foster as president, Vyvyean Hazen, vice president, and Mirriam Dun-haver, secretary and treasurer. We again had to elect another president, Gerald Davis being elected. Mr. Gould and Miss Kelsey are our sponsors. The class was well represented in both football and basketball, winning second place in the interclass basketball games. imiiiiiiiiiimimimiiiiimimmiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii i m i m ini iimm in i ii ....mi 1111 ii i ii mi i in i ii i .................... in........iiimimi............mi.........mi...................... iiiiiiiiiimiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiimimiiiimiiiiiiiiiiinmu dUOJSdJlJ l ()£() imiimin .......in..........nimiim......min 1920 Milestone mmimii Freshman Class History. J It was one of the first clays of September. 1919, when we Freshies ventured away from the Junior High, where for eighteen weeks we had been the uppermost class, to the Senior High. We were destined to be brought down with a thud, as we learned later. A couple of weeks afterwards we elected officers and chose Gerald Henning, president, Lloyd Schram, vice president, and Charlotte Traub, secretary and treasurer. The second semester to our number were added forty-five new freshies, making one hundred sixty-five in all. We felt better then, for ’tis known that there is safety in numbers. In the inter-class basketball games, w'e defeated the Seniors, and then were defeated by the Juniors. One of the members of our class, Gerald Henning, was on the High School basketball team. On February 25th w-e had our Gala Day. We had sold the most tickets for the Irvin S. Cobb lecture, and as a result were given the privilege of decorating the assembly with our colors for one day. We certainly displayed the green and white. Everyone was proud of being a Freshie that day. Nothing else happened, although we are planning a party to take place in the near future. limn....mu........uni.......inn.. .......u...immimiin.......... inn � � � � � � 1920 Milestone FRESHMEN 1st How Down left to right: Deon Apfel.

Our Coach fARL Keester, coach of football and basketball for the year of ’19 and ’20, is a graduate of the Nebraska Wesleyan College. He was graduated from that college with the class of ’18, and then went to work for Uncle Sam, as a sailor. He left the service of his country and became one of the faculty of the Norfolk High School. Keester’s work this year with the football and basketball teams has been a great success. The football team did not have a very good record as to scores, but the basketball team walked off with plenty of honors. e: nninim............u...........iiiiiim........Hum iiiinnuiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuinmiiiiiiimiiiiiiiii mu... 1920 ...........min............ mi.......

The first three games the boys made a good showing, but when Lincoln beat us, they gave up hopes. Neligh beat us 7 to 2, the first time they had ever defeated us. Some of our good men were out this year on account of accidents. Bart McClow was seriously hurt in an auto accident; Lester Rogers broke his shoulder three days before the Lincoln game; Dee Moore suffered from a wrenched neck; Lee Moore threw his elbow out of joint in the Grand Island game. It was a very unlucky season as a whole, but we are looking forward to much better results next year. 11111111................................. mini......min............ mum............................................................. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimtiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiMnii 1920 Milestone mimnm SECOND TEAM Top How left to right: 1 .

First Team Games Wayne Normal vs. Norfolk. MAX WINTER 20 4th Year N Man. The first game of the season was played at Wayne. The day was clear, but a strong south wind hindered the playing very much. The teams were about evenly matched, and the game was a hard fought battle from start to finish. In the last part of the game it looked like a victory for Norfolk, but a costly fumble near the goal line, lost a touchdown for Norfolk. The final whistle blew with neither side able to cross the goal line, leaving the score a tie, 0 to 0. I Bloomfield vs. Norfolk M KVERKTT ISAACSON’ ’21 Ii’ft Eml Weight 125 l t Year N Man. The only successful game of the season was the one with Bloomfield. Norfolk came out on top with a score of 18 to 0. The game throughout was very slow, although both teams worked their hardest. Bloomfield during the whole game endangered our goal line but once when on a recovered fumble they crossed the line for a touchdown, some technicality prevented the score from counting against us. Although we won this game, we were far from satisfied with the results, as it did not show what the team had in it. Lincoln vs. Norfolk The Norfolk eleven left for Lincoln determined to bring back the capitol city scalp. The team and high school were somewhat disappointed when they slipped it over on us to the tune of 21 to 0. Norfolk was somewhat handicapped by the absence of Lester Rogers who broke his shoulder three days before this game. Although Norfolk put up a wonderful fight, they were unable to hold the fast Lincoln team, who slipped around our ends three times for touchdowns. Norfolk executed some brilliant passes, carrying the ball to the five-yard line twice, where they were penalized for off side.

Omaha Central vs. Norfolk A large crowd of rooters gathered on the side lines to see the Omaha Central boys play football with our eleven. Although the score fell totally to Omaha the game was quite “peppy.” Some excellent passes were made by our boys, but owing to fumbles near the goal lines, we made no score. The rooters did not give the game up as lost until the very end, when the victory for the opponents was apparent. Throughout the game we yelled our N-N-Nor-f-f-olk, and many other yells which helped to keep up the boys’ spirits in spite of the adverse conditions under which they were playing. Norfolk vs. Neligh It was on a gloomy day this Fall, freezing cold, really too cold to play or watch a football game, that the Neligh team, with a large bunch of rooters, came down here to play. The score was quite close throughout the game, the final score being 7 to 2, in favor of the visiting team. This is the first time that we can remember Neligh defeating us at football. EDWARD 8CHIIAM 20 Left Half 3rd Year “N” Weight 155 Man. Grand Island vs. Norfolk One of the fastest games of the season was played at Norfolk October 31 when the Grand Island team came here. The sun was shining brightly and was an ideal day for football but Norfolk could not cross the goal line. Grand Island showed exceptional team work and their hard hitting qualities carried the ball over the line several times. In the first half it looked as if Norfolk still had a chance as they only scored once in the first two quarters but something happened to the boys in the second half as Grand Island crossed our goal four more times kicking goal three times. The score, however, does not indicate the kind of a game as it was hard fought from start to finish but with Grand Island walking away with the long end of the score 39-0. It was a hard day for Norfolk, as several of our men were taken out on account of injuries. It was Best’s first game and he was taken off the field with a bad knee. Lee Moore also received a broken elbow. DEE MO OKI-: ’20 Right Half Weight 165 2nd Year N” Man.

LAWTON l'HINNEY 21 r Weight 145 2nd Year ,,N Man. South Omaha vs. Norfolk. One of the best games of the season was played when Norfolk met South Omaha High at South Omaha. The game started by Omaha kicking to Norfolk. Although Omaha had to fight for all they got, they scored two touchdowns in the first half, these both being lucky runs, for they were about all Omaha had to show. Norfolk threatened to score several times, but due to a little hard luck, the first half ended 12 to 0 in favor of our opponents. In the second half the boys played great at defense and held their opponents from scoring. The game ended with the score unchanged. LLOYD HIGGINBOTHAM ’22 Bight Guard Weight 105 2nd Year N Man. Columbus vs. Norfolk On the morning of November 21 the maroon and white warriors left for the last out-of-town game of the season. As they had been defeated on most every trip they determined to win this game. The game from the start was played very fast. The maroons carried the ball into their opponents territory during the first few minutes of play. Here the ball was fumbled, Columbus recovered it and carried it down the field but was not able to cross our line. The second quarter the Columbus quarter-back got away for a touchdown, around our left end. The first half ended with the score 6 to 0 in favor of Columbus. In the last half the Columbus men came back with still more pep than before and added several more points to the score. The successful passes of our men were of special note to the spectators throughout the game. In the last quarter our worthy halfback “Eddie,” carried the pigskin over the line of our opponents. The teams worked as a new machine on the offense, but our defeat was due mostly to poor defensive work and much fumbling. The final whistle blew with JOHN ALLEN 22 Full Bark Weight 140 2nd Year N Man. the score 34 to 7—Columbus had the long end. Nebraska Aggies vs. Norfolk The Nebraska Aggies were scheduled to play here Thanksgiving Day but on account of the snow storm the game was called off.

When we got down there we found that they had billed the game like a first team game, so we had to fool them. The whole game was a one sided affair, the second team completely outclassing and out playing their heavier opponents. There was no “starring” but the game w-as won by team work and the fighting spirit of the reserves. Everyone was well pleased with the game. BERE8FORD BECK '20 Huh Line Weight 147 1st Year. Plainview vs. Reserves The reserves climbed aboard the early train, Nov. 22, and went to Plainview. The reason for going to Plainview was to beat their foot ball team. They failed. The reserves played a good game but the heavy dinner told on them. Plainview made their first touchdown in the first quarter on a forward pass. Plainviewr hides out in the second quarter and another touchdown was the result. They kicked goal. Score 13-0. The second half was better foot ball, though neither side scored. The reserves carried the ball several times to the 10-yard line but lost on downs. The final score was 13-0 in favor of Plainview. West Point vs. Reserves The heavy West Point eleven came here expecting an easy victory over the Reserves, but they were sadly disappointed. Although they won the game from the Reserves 6 to 0, it was nothing to what they had expected. The Reserves played a very good game and West Point was in danger several times. The field was exceedingly muddy; this disadvantage was of course the same to both teams. Our opponents outweighed us by a great deal, w'hich was naturally to their advantage. Owing to the mud the “22” left the field looking more like black men than white ones. miiiuniiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii 1111111111 n 11111111111 u 11111 n 1111111111 n 111 n 111 n 1111 m iimimim 1920 Milestone Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimm JUNIOR CLASS TEAM Kingsley, ('raven, lenders. Beat, Isa arson. Inter-Class Basketball The inter-class basket ball games commenced at 3 p. m. on December 5, when the Sophomores played against the Freshmen. The game was an exceedingly peppy one, the Seniors and Juniors rooting for their sister classes respectively. The game ended with the Sophomores in the lead, the score 10 to 4. Next came the Junior-Senior game. Although the Juniors seemed to have the long end of the score most of the time, the game was a very fast and interesting one. On December 8, the Seniors and Sophomores played off their round. The score was very close in this game, in fact, the closest of any games in the tournament. The Sophomores were victorious by only two points. On this same day the other two sister classes played their games, the Juniors defeating the Freshmen 28 to 6. If the “Y” walls have ears, the loudest rooting they had ever heard was on December 9, when the final game of the Inter-Class Tournament was played by the Juniors and Sophomores. The score was close and the playing very fine. The Juniors finally won the game and the tournament. The Sophomores held second place. On December 9, the highest and lowest classes also played each other, the underclassmen being nine points ahead of their elders when the final whistle blew. iiiimiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiii ...........................mm........... iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiii 7920 Milestone ............................

They must not have known what a good team we had because the score was 52-18 in favor of Norfolk. Newman Grove vs. Norfolk After defeating Wisner, the team went to Newman Grove for the first out of town game of the season. They arrived there at 6 p. m., had supper at the hotel, and then were shown to their rooms. Soon all went to the High School where the gym floor is. After seeing the Newman Grove girls’ team defeat the Elgin girls’ team, our boys started playing. The game was a close one and hard fought all the way through. Norfolk came out with the big end of the score— 30 to 24. Norfolk Takes Game from Fremont A large number of local fans gathered to see the third basket ball game of the season, which was played on Friday, January 23, when the Norfolk team succeeded in defeating the Fremont team at Norfolk. Ten minutes of battling resulted in the first basket, and shortly after the score stood 12 to 0 in favor of Fremont. The first half ended with the score 18 to 14 in Fremont’s favor. Norfolk opened a fast offensive in the first of the second half, and fought until the last, ending with a four point lead. The final score was 26 to 22 in favor of Norfolk. Stanton vs. Norfolk Stanton met a humiliating defeat at the hands of Norfolk an evening this spring when a big crowd of H. S. pupils and the basket ball team of Norfolk motored down to the said city. The game was peppy all the way through; Stanton was in the lead at the end of the first half, the score being 9 to 5. Our boys just warmed up at the beginning of the second half, and before many minutes had left Stanton behind, gasping for breath. The team work was splendid all the way through, and with Guy and Barton to shoot baskets, and with one whole side of the S. H. S. gym filled with enthusiastic Norfolk rooters, our score had piled up to 28, and theirs was but 11 when the last whistle blew. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiimiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii 111111111111111111111111111111111111 n 11111111111 n 11 n 11 iTT EVERETT ISAACSON Guard Weight 125 GUY BEST Forward Weight 14 Captain mini....mini.....mum.........hi.in 1920 Milestone mu.. Randolph vs. Norfolk In the fifth game of the season Norfolk defeated Randolph 36 to 21. Norfolk took the lead and held it throughout the game. The floor was not an ideal one to play on, being small and slippery and having posts on one side. The baskets were loose and the lights poor. Even with all this against us we came out on top. Schuyler vs. Norfolk The team left for Schuyler and Columbus the morning of February 4, and arrived in Schuyler that afternoon. The game started after a girl’s game had been completed. From the first whistle it was a hard, clean game. At the end of of the game the score was a tie; an extra five minutes was allowed, and at the end of that time, the score was again tied. Another five minute interval was added, and then Schuyler was lucky and won by a score of three points, the final score being 19 to 22. MAX WINTERS (Juan! Weight ISO Columbus vs. Norfolk One of our biggest games this season was played with Columbus on their gym floor. Quite a number of N. H. S. fans went down to see the game, and they all decided it to have been a very exciting and close one, until near the end of the game when Columbus finally came out three points ahead of us, the final score being 17 to 14. Aggies vs. Norfolk The first of a series of three games, Norfolk took easily from the Aggies, with a score of 32 to 6. As the floor was larger than any we had played on this year, we were a little apprehensive as to how the five man defense would work after having practiced on a small floor, but the first half dispelled all doubts, for the farmers did not score a point. This game made the outlook for the other two games much brighter. Havelock vs. Norfolk The Norfolk team traveled out to Havelock the second day on the Lincoln trip. Although the boilermakers put up a good fight they were no match for the Norfolk team which trimmed them by a score of 57 to 23. This made the second victory in two days for Norfolk.

B. Game On February 20, the Maroons prepared for their third game while in Lincoln, that being the hardest game of the three. The Maroons, with no difficulty at all, defeated the Aggies at Havelock. University Place realized what the little Maroons were, and were prepared. The game was ours from the start, although the University men kept quite close to us in the score. Our team work and floor work was superior to that of our opponents. The game ended with a score of 24 to 15 in Norfolk’s favor. Neligh vs. Norfolk One evening this spring, Neligh with her “big five”, and a handful of rooters, motored down to our city for a big scramble. The Neligh men were all big husky fellows, but in spite of that fact our boys walked away with a score of 22-2, at the end of the first half. By the time the second half was over, our whole team had been put in, and still the score piled up in our favor. Neligh seemed to lose confidence and fumbled the ball several times; however, good sportsmanship was shown on both sides, and Neligh took the defeat which was 49 to 9 at the end of the game, with good grace. GERALD HENNING iVntor Weight 135 Madison vs. Norfolk Madison came to Nbrfolk hoping to defeat us. Although they put up as good a fight as we expected we ran up a score of 83 to 5. Second Team Games. Reserves vs. Pierce High The basket ball season of 1920 opened January 8, with the Reserves trimming Pierce to the tune of 22 to 16. Although the outlook during the first five minutes of play looked bad to Norfolk, they seemed only to need a start. Landers, who played the stellar part in the game, shot a basket from near the foul line. After this Pierce seemed to lose heart, although Furrick made quite a few long shots, and the manner in which he played baffled more than one on the Norfolk squad. The first half ended with the score standing 8 to 9 in Norfolk’s favor. During the second half Norfolk was at no time in danger of defeat. The team work and basket shooting of our men proved too expert for the Pierce boys. BKRKSFORD BECK Sub.

Although the score was 27 to 5 in favor of Tilden, the game was even more hotly contested than the final count perhaps exhibits. The winners were aided no doubt by being acclimated to the narrowness of their gym, a condition which the Reserves found very hard to become accustomed to. King at center was stellar player, making the five points. Pierce vs. Norfolk While the first team was defeating Stanton, the second team drove to Pierce in cars, we had a good time seeing all the sights there. When we were on the floor we also had a good time, defeating our opponents 18 to 21. AIXAN LANDERS Sub.

Nebraska State Basket Ball Tournament The Norfolk team left on March 3, to win the championship of Nebraska. They did not win this, but certainly made a good showing. One hundred seventy-three teams took part the first day of the tournament. Norfolk won their game from Sutton 20 to 10. The next day was our unlucky day, when Lincoln defeated us 23 to 7, although we held them to a closer score than any other team. Commercial high of Omaha having beaten Grand Island, played Lincoln for the championship of the State, Lincoln coming out on top with a score of 25 to 13.

With the conclusion of the State Tournament Norfolk H. S. ended its basket ball season with nearly a clear record. With the exception of two defeats the Maroon team came through the season without being seriously threatened by any of its opponents. The team was without its equal in this part of the state, and in fact was on a par with any team in the state with the exception perhaps of Lincoln. Lincoln was without doubt the best High School team that has ever been seen in the state and credit must be given to the Norfolk team for the fact that they held Lincoln to the lowest score of the tournament. The season started by a clean cut defeat of Wisner by a score of 52 to 18. This was a somewhat slow game due to the fact that it was the first for the Maroons, but it showed the caliber of the team. The team then journeyed to Newman Grove and defeated that High School team for the first time in several years. The game was very close up to the last few minutes of play. Nor-faly finally nosing ahead by a margin of 30 to 24. Our old time enemies at Fremont were then taken on and when the game started out it looked like a walk away for them, as they ran up a score of 12 to 0 before we scored a point. But the Norfolk team had the goods and the final score stood 26 to 22 in our favor. Stanton, seeming desirous of getting our goat, we invaded their territory and gave them a sample of how our goat could butt by trimming them to the tune of 26 to 14. The same week Randolph invited us up to play in her back yard which we did with a vengeance. They got to playing a little too rough so we handed them back what they tried to give and came back with the score 36 to 20 against them. The two defeats of the season then followed when we went to Schuyler and Columbus. Capt. Best’s work at forward was unexcelled by any other man on any team that we met and our large scores are due to his ability to locate the basket at the right moment. McClow at the other forward played a hard fast game at all times and was the best floor man on the team. Henning at center showed the makings of a good man and will make one of the best players in the state. His regular position was at guard but he had the ability to hold down any place on the team. Isaacson played his usual fighting game at guard and although smaller than his opponents his fighting spirit made them work for all of the goals that they got. Winter, while coming out in the middle of the season, made possible a shift in the lineup which strengthened the team and any man who got a goal from him deserved it. Landers, King, Beck, Allen, Craven, as subs stood ready at all times to take anybody’s place on the team and kept the others fighting for their places. As we lose only one man this year the team next year should walk away with championship honors. The reputation of the team this year as one of the cleanest teams in the state is something of which its supporters should be proud and which should be kept up. No greater compliment can be paid to any team. iiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinniiiiiimiiiiiiimiiiiiiii -« iiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiniih mi Ill.................... 1920 Miles tone UiiUlim Track-Baseball. Norfolk high school is looking forward to a baseball and a track team this season for the first time in years. E. W. Gould, the track coach, reports some good material which, even though inexperienced, can be made into good runners. The baseball teams are practicing and getting in trim. Each class elected its captain, and the different classes are going to compete. The High School is also going to organize a baseball team, and from the material, it looks like it would be a winning one. Two games with Tilden are already scheduled, and it is rumored that we will play Plainview and other nearby towns. nniiimii................................................ in.....iiiiimiihhiiiii........

These whether for social life or for discipline leave the greatest impressions on the pupils after graduation. In the first place organizations bring the pupils closer together and fit them for their places in life. Mere book knowledge does not assure one of success. Associating with his fellowmen brings a larger understanding to the individual. It has been said that the standard of a school is measured by its organizations. If so, Norfolk High has a standard worthy of our pride. One of fhe new social organizations here is the Girls’ Reserve Club, an auxiliary to the Y. W. C. A. Their monthly business meetings and social enjoyments correspond closely to the Hi Y Club for the boys. The Student Council is also an important factor in school life. They issue monthly an honor roll which tends to encourage competition among the students in courtesy, honesty and scholarship. The No-Hi-So suspended last year on account of war conditions has again been published with greater success and popularity than before. Another new factor introduced this year is the Boys’ Glee Club which runs in close competition with the Girls’ Chorus in singing ability. When we get into our new high school building we are sure that we will have many more organizations than now. For we are expecting to have there, rooms in which the different organizations can meet also a large auditorium where the Glee Clubs and Dramatic Club may perform. iiiiiiiiiiiiimimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiii ■ iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiimiiiiiimiiiiiiimii IIIIIIIIIIII 1920 Milestone Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiniimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiimmii 1st Row Sitting.

The four classes in the High School are represented by three members each; the president of the class and two elected members. Each class elects four candidates by a two-thirds majority and from these four the faculty selects two. In all cases members are of fairly high standing. Along with the principal one other member of the faculty is included. In all the Council consists of fourteen members, each class being represented equally. The following officers were elected: Guy Best ----------------------------- President Marion Craven.........._...........Vice President Mildred Christoph ....................Secretary At the meetings the principal brings up all questions and suggestions that may help in the betterment of the school and a discussion is carried on by the The Honor Roll which the school p uts out is passed by the Student Council, members until some decision is reached. A student governing body can be m ade a very necessary organization and is very helpful. ....................... mu mu............. 11 muni mi iminiininnmmiimimnimimmiiiimimiinmiin 1920 Milestone hhiimihi BOYS' CHORUS Ut How: Edward Inlielder.

Singing has been a live activity in our High School this year, and one which every student should enjoy and make a vital part off his school life. Owing to the difficulty in securing books we did not have assembly singing until the beginning of the second semester, but since that time the first period each Wednesday is devoted to chiming out “Working On the Levee,” “Merry Life ' “Carry Me Back” and so forth with a spirit that shows that each singer is enjoying his own music as well as that of his schoolmates. ...................................................... •� m11111n....................n1111111111111n11111111n11n 111111111111 1920 Milestone .........................................................................................................

At the opening of school last fall the girls chorus of seventy voices was the only musical organization, but at the beginning of the second semester a boy’s chorus of thirty-five voices was organized. Also at this time the girl’s chorus was reorganized into a glee club with officers as follows: President ..................Clarice Cassel Librarian ..............Gwendolyn Ahlman Each organization meets twice a week for rehearsal, and appears in special numbers at various times on Wednesday mornings. On account of the May pageant which will be presented this year no cantata will be given by the choruses, but they will furnish the music for Commencement. Norfolk High School is rich in musical talent and we hope next year will see a High School orchestra or band added to its activities. iimihiiiiiiiiiuiiiihiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiihiiii qq iuiiiiiuuiiiiiiihiiiiiiiiiiiuiihiih....................

She told of the many places that have such clubs, and how well they are liked. The club is a national organization and is under the auspices of the Y. W. C. A. All of the girls were very enthusiastic about the idea, and with Mrs. Taylor to help, we were immediately organized. A nominating committee was selected and they elected the members f or the different standing committees. A constitution was immediately drawn up and the club started. iHIIIIHIIUIIIlllllllllllllHIIIIIIIIHIMMRR1111111111 IIIIIII111� n n i n i n n 111� � � i� i n h n h 1 m i11111111111 ili1 ...1111111920 Milestone ....................... min.......

The staff was chosen the last of September, and the first issue published the first week in October. The paper was published monthly, but on no certain day of each month, owing to the delay in printing. The drive for subscriptions was successful, everyone subscribing who could. Seventy-five cents was charged for a year’s subscription, or fifteen cents a copy. A sixteen page paper has been put out each month. The staff worked hard for material and the success of the paper is due to their good work and the contributions of the pupils. The financial success of the paper was due to the able business managers; the advertising paying for the entire paper each time, while the subscription money was used for cuts and cartoons. ......................... min inn iliiiiniiii 1920 iiinmiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiini)mini......... .................. mm • 02482353538923235353532323234823 iiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiimiHiiHiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii 1Q90 Milestone The Milestone Staff.

A hard times party was decided upon and carried J out to the fullest extent. Few realized what perfect “bums” some of our most polished and sophisticated boys could make. And as for the girls—such patches and such a display of colors—both bright and faded. Among the different things that were done, the most important were the family groups, each group having a stunt. “The dying hobo” was typical of the evening, and received much applause, as also did a mock duel and some other events. The hilarious bunch was fed in the laboratory. The lights tried to cause a commotion by occasionally disappearing but we couldn’t be bothered as long as we had such convenient gas burners. So nothing occurred to spoil the evening, and everybody called it the same thing that the 1920 class always has—a success. Senior Class Picnic. On the seventh of October, Miss Hyde of the Domestic Science department, entertained the Senior class in honor of her brother, Leicester. The plans were kept secret as a surprise to the guest of honor. Accordingly just before the supper hour, a large number of seniors gathered in front of the Junioi High School and Leicester was sent for. Needless to say he was quite overcome, and the merry bunch of senior dignitaries then proceeded to the canyons southeast of Norfolk for a picnic supper around a huge camp fire. Several exploring parties reported superb scenic beauty to be viewed from the tops of the sui -rounding hills. Thereupon, immediately after supper, the entire picnicing party adjourned to the top of the hills, and although by that time it was too dark to see much, they greatly enjoyed looking at the full moon, it was reported. Upon arriving in town, the seniors proceeded to liven up Norfolk avenue with iiiHiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiniuuiiimmuiuiiiiiuiiinu � iiiuiimiiiiiiiiiiininiiiiumimiimiiHiitiimmi ...11111 1920 Milestone nmmHimmiiimMiiiiiiiiiniiiiimiiiiMiiMHiimMiiiiiiiiiJTmm their yells, after which they met in front of the Hyde home, and with great enthusiasm expressed their appreciation to Miss Hyde for the wonderfully pleasant evening she had given them. The class unanimously hopes that Leicester will have another birthday in the near future. Senior Class Party This particular event was held on a Friday evening, January 30, the year of grace 1920. The party was planned along progressive lines, our point of progression being Leroy Clements’ home, where the ancient and scientific game of dominoes was thoroughly investigated to the satisfaction of all concerned. The ladies’ prize was awarded to Miss Gleason, and the gentlemen’s prize went to Vincent Coyle, while Sanford came into possession of the consolation award; whereupon it was announced that our objectives were the domiciles of Eva 0 Neill and Viva Tutt, which were duly taken and occupied, respectively. At Eva’s, music and singing were in order, not to mention some most delicious fudge. A most magnificent luncheon was served at Viva’s, and was voted the best vet. After that it turned into a “riot of fun,” which continued until our worthy counsellors deemed it time to disperse. When it was proved beyond a doubt that all things, even good times, must have an end, the merrymakers followed their very good advice. Hare and Hound The Junior-Senior annual hare and hound race was held on November 3, 1919. The Seniors started from N. H. S. about eight o’clock. In about fiifteen or twenty minutes the Juniors left the building trying to follow the trail. About nine-forty a number of the Juniors returned to the building and found several other Juniors there, ones who had found some of the Seniors. At ten o’clock both Juniors and Seniors gathered at the building where there was a dispute as to whether the Juniors or the Seniors had won. It being decided that the Seniors had won, all proceeded to the Green Room Cafe, where about eighty-five members enjoyed a good feed. Junior Class Play. The Junior class play given at the Auditorium, February 17th, fulfilled iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiimiiiimiiiiimiiii .............. mu...... TTTTTTTT ........................... 1920 Milestone miimini all hopes for it, and all the expectations aroused by signs of faithful and concentrated practice. To those who understand the technique of the play, the advantages of a rising staircase stage are recognized. Some evidences of the training thus afforded were seen in various endeavors of the thief to climb the screen in front of the fireplace. The cast was, as advertised, an all star one. The male members of it did honor to their sex in the persons of Lawton Phinney, as Brighton; Charles Hudson as Billy Jackson; George Salter, the feeble and well desiring Prof. Spiggot; Edward Kell, the thief; Allan Landers, the charming child; Hemach-us, Marion Craven the flirtations Uncle Malachi. Even baby Cheops, with a masterful way at gum chewing, was a pleasing addition to his family and to the cast. The girls of the cast were all charming; they had an especial opportunity to show their charm in the second act when they chatted together of various matters. The personel of the women was Dorothy Campbell as Amy Lee; Florence Seder as Doris Ruffles the maid of honor; Luree Evans the very pretty maid; Leora Klug as Mrs. Perrington Chine; Jean South as a langor-ous and fascinating widow; Jo Maylard the sweet and charming child, Alyne Seymour as Mrs. Spiggot with her seven small Spiggots, and Eleanor Lewis in a comedy part, as Aunt Paradise. Each corresponded to one’s idea of the heroine of a successful comedy, for each had charm of manner, beautiful clothes and careful presentation of speech. It is not altogether fair to leave such a discussion of the cast in groups, for its members were worthy of individual mention. Each family had its members well differentiated. The unfortunate professor, his wife and seven children, were well presented from clothes to stage business. Alyne Seymour gave a good impersonation of the nervous, long suffering and now fully outraged mother of seven, who had lost most of her personality in being subservient to her husband’s ideas. Her husband and his ideas were well conceived by George Salter, whose voice was made for the occasion, and whose studious character was shown by the fact that his idea of a wedding present for a gay and modem cousin was an Egyptian scarab with a history. The widow and her child were satisfying. The audience sighed with the Widow Charming and her romantic nature, but wished to shake either her or the child, at intervals. The groom and the bride-to-be well played and their characters were pleasing even though many vissitudes, one especially in the form of the cleverly portrayed vamp, did threaten their happiness and approaching marriage. The best man won sympathy though appearances were against him.

The players were not puppets speaking lines memorized under compulsion and giving them in the person of a high school junior, but each was an actor living for the time his part and interpreting it to the best of his ability. “Eat, drink and be merry” seemed to be the motto of the Junior Class play cast on the evening of February 27th, when Miss Gleason and Miss Hayes entertained their unruly charges of the past month—but now they weren’t saying “get a little action in there.” or “talk louder,” but were near saying the opposite. The guests made use of all the house (and all the tabarets) and with a case of pop, and buns and weiners and pickles, they enjoyed themselves. On Friday evening, October 3, the Sophomores had a Halloween party at the High School. It was very mysterious, beginning with a left hand shake and left hand signature. The evening was spent in playing games. There were also other forms of entertainment, and excitement never lagged. After enjoying the delightful refreshments, the guests departed at a late hour, all agreeing that the party had been a great success. Much credit is due to Miss Kelsey and Mr. Gould, Sophomore sponsors, for the success of the evening. The Seniors were the first class to show their colors this year. Upon arriving at the school and seeing the assembly room decorated with purple and white, the under classmen were determined not to let the colors remain hanging; they proceeded to take them down. The Seniors all wore purple and white ribbons on that day and enjoyed the occasion. Next came the Juniors’ day on which some appeared with one blue stocking and one maze one on. The assembly was decorated with their colors; all of the class came into the assembly tardy and yelled their Junior Yell. The Freshmen deserve much praise for having sold the most tickets to the Irving S. Cobb lecture. They were awarded by being permitted to decorate the assembly with their class colors, under which all of the upper classmen were compelled to sit for the whole day. On this same day the Seniors carried iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiii ..................................... Junior Play Cast Party The Sophomore Party ................. ilium.... 1 J20 Milestone.... out their long planned and hoped for stunt. The girls appeared in boys’ blouses and the boys came in girls’ middies. This dress seemed to make it less humiliating for them to sit under the green and white. The Lecture Course. All of the numbers of the lecture course this year have been very successful. Large audiences have been present and full attention has been given to those entertaining. Financially we have been successful also, and we certainly are going to work hard selling tickets so as to have a course here next year. The Box Social. “Of course our boys must go to the state tournament!” “How are we to raise the money for the trip,” was the question. After many suggestions as to ways of making money, having a box social was the means finally decided upon. The evening’s entertainment was opened by the Freshies, who made us happy for about fifteen minutes with a harmonious band. Next on the program came the Punch and Judy show, given by the Sophomores. We all enjoyed the dancers greatly. The Juniors had a band and a dancer, both of which amused the audience greatly. Last, but prize winning, came the Seniors. Different members of the class imitated members at a faculty meeting. Hits and misses were given. Then came the auction. All the boxes sold at high prices, and everyone enjoyed his supper, as there were lots of goodies in each box. Sufficient money was raised to send the boys to Lincoln. The Junior -- Senior Banquet. It has for many years been the custom for the Junior Class to entertain the Senior Class at a banquet usually given several days before Commencement. The money for this banquet is obtained by the Class Play which is acted by the Juniors and which in the last few years has been given in the Norfolk Auditorium during the month of February or March. The play this year was a great success financially as wrell as in all other ways, so natuially we Seniors expected an unusual feast. Indeed our expectations were abundantly fulfilled, the menu being as follows: .............. � .................................................................................................................................................... 111111111111 1920 iWi pstnnp ...................................................................................................... MENU Consomme Breaded Pork Tenderloin Croutons Fried Apples Escalloped Potatoes with Pimentoes Creamed Wax Beans Hot Rolls Mint Jelly Perfection Salad Grape Nut Ice Cream Cheese Straws Angle Food Cake Coffee Salted Jumbo Peanuts The decorations were very artistic being carried out in the Senior colors. Toasts were given by the presidents of the two classes, Marion Craven and Vincent Coyle, and other members chosen from the classes. The banquet took place in the basement of the First Congregational Church and was served by the Ladies Aid of that church. Military drill was made compulsory for all boys in the senior high school the latter part of September. On the faculty were four ex-service men: Mr. Keester, who had been in the navy; Mr. Gould, who had been an instructor in the signal corps; Mr. Coulson, who had had training in a machine gun batal-lion; and Mr. Finch, who had seen servive in the heavy artillery overseas. From this group must be taken the instructors for military drill. Mr. Keester, however, was the athletic coach. Mr. Gould had already organized a radio class; he now reorganized it on a military basis. It was left then for Mr. Coulson and Mr. Finch to form the cadet companies. The prospects of compulsory drill greatly augmented the football squad. Those who could not qualify here or elsewhere were drawn up one afternoon before the high school building in double rank and according to height. The line thus formed was then divided into halves—the half containing the larger boys was designated as Company “A,” that containing the smaller boys Company “B.” Mr. Coulson became the drill-master of Company “A”; Mr. Finch of Company “B.” Instruction in the school of the soldier and of the squad was immediately begun three nights a week after school. The only available place for drilling was the street, there being no suitable floor space or field in the city; the ball park was already being utilized by the football teams. Soon unfavorable weather made outdoor drill impossible. The work of the first semester was completed indoors; classes were organized and the rudiments of military organization and science were taught. The Board Cadets iiiiiiimmimiiiimiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimmiii - .................................. mu.........minimum.........................iiihiiiiiiiiiiiiihii.....mm 1Q9H Milestone ................................ of Education soon decided that it was impractical to continue the military drill until better facilities could be secured. The cadet companies were therefore disbanded at the close of the first semester and military drill discontinued. Radio. A Radio department was added to the curriculum at the beginning of this school year. The department concerns wireless telegraphy and signal corps work. The Radio instructor is Mr. E. W. Gould who was a M. S. E. in the United States Army, and who also served as an instructor in Government Radio stations. The first semester the following officers were appointed: L. Hyde, top sergeant; Vincent Coyle, sergeant and section chief of Section 1; and Clyde Sanford, sergeant and section chief of Section 2. The second semester the officers were elected as follows: Hugo Beverly, top sergeant; Clyde Sanford, section chief of Section 1; George Wilson, section chief of Section 2, and Vincent Coyle, supply sergeant. Hugo Beverly later resigned to go to school in Chicago and Vincent Coyle was elected to fill his place. Carl Henning was elected supply Sergeant. Corporals appointed were Floyd Mattison, section 1 and Leicester Hyde in section 2. During the first semester the roster contained only about ten students, but the second semester showed a gain of six or seven students. The theory of Radio was studied from “Practical Wireless Telegraphy” by Buecher. This book was used as a text by the United States government for the Army and is the best of its kind. The different branches that make up this course include: semaphore, wigwag, wireless telegraphy, and use of the projector. The class was handicapped by the lack of equipment but did very well under the circumstances. Under the able supervision of Mr. Gould, the class constructed two field sets—one for each section. The equipment of the Department consists of a naval type receiving set, R41; a time set, RC1; a No. 2 panel set to be used with an audion bulb; four sets of special type batteries, two aerials and two field sets. Most of the time was taken up with theory work until the first of April when more outside work was done. Much buzzer work was done also. Sanford and Coyle maintaining the highest record in receiving—ten words a minute. iiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiniii|iiiiiii|1 r iiMiiiiiuimiuuiiiuiuuuiHminmiiuiuuHimi immiiin HJ20 Milpsfnnn ...... ilium........mu....limn.linn The last two months were spent in field maneuvers. The instructor gave orders to the top sergeant, who in turn gave them to the section chiefs. These orders contained information as to the location of the field set for that day, the messages to be sent, the time to be sent and the times that each section was to expect a message from the other. First of all the section chiefs would report in to headquarters (the school). This station was in charge of Mr. Gould or some one detailed for that duty. Sometimes the sections would get about two or three blocks away and send by semaphore or wig-wag. The outlook for next year is very good for the Radio department. The new 50-foot aerial has been installed on the Junior High building. New equipment ordered for next year include a 1 K. W. transmitting set, a rotary spark gap, a short wave regenerator, a mignon undamped set and a quantity of raw material, from which the class will take various Radio instruments and apparatus. The course has been very interesting and the fellows have enjoyed themselves besides gaining some useful knowledge. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimmiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiii - 1111 n 111111 u 1111111111 n 1111111 n i n 111111111 n u 111111111 Joke 5 ....mu...........ilium............ 1920 Milestone imumm nAUGH when the joke is on you, Smile if you are the goat; For the head is a soak, that can’t take a joke, And get sore at the guy who wrote it. iiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii)ii v iiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiniiiiiiiiniimiiimiii 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111niiTTTT11;11111 � r, iiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimimimm .............................. m...... dU()jSdJ1J[ ()£6I iimiinni 11111.. 1920 Milestone .....
